Thorp stated, that on Thursday-ntAt about eleven
o'clock she went to the Peter and Key publicAolise,. where she
saw the three prisoners. l'hey a,ked her tn•trest;thetir ;
the landlord refusing to let them have any liqtroF,aphat late
hour, they went to the Bull, another house in that neiAbour•;
hood. Flere they had some gin. After taking his liquor,-George
[ha became very loving, and pressed and pulled the prorsecu
ti ix about a good deal, at len•gth he left the house. lie had not
ouit:ed them long when the pr.lsecutrix in7ssed her money;
having. ob,eryed Duff whlsper his brother just before he left
the room, the prosecutrix's suspicion fell on them all. She
gave iuformation to May, by whom the prisoners were all taken
into custody.

The prisoners now denied having any knowledge of the rob-
bery ; they were committed for re-examinatios.

R fOTOUI PROCEEDINGS IN STA.FI:OIIDEHIRF..—It appears that
the immediate causes which gave rise to the Lao disturbances at
Bilston, were, the failure of Mr. Rushberry, an eminent banker, and
an intention on the part of various iron masters to ! :Nver their men's
weges. The shock produced by the failure of MI .Itusliberry, who
ivas both banker and miner. Wai severely felt : notes, silver tokens,
copper coin to a considerably amount, besides bills, &e. being
afloat. Some inc)ividnals. it is stated, lost from five to eight or
nine hundred polkds!—llis collieries as well as his bank, of course;
'stopped ; and almost all in his employ, colliers, miners, &c. by
his failure and sudden disappearance, were Completely thrown
out of bread. The: rrangemots which other great manufacturers
happened to .be making at this critical inoment, to.lower the price
of labwir ; and, inched, the great meess of work-people in almost
all the collieries, operating conjointly with the above. failure, be-
came altogether; productive of considerable scominGtion.—Forta-
Nate:y, lilt= the' 'adoption of measures of wise preedulion,. every
:thing p.romiset to teripinate peaceably.—Provisions having undOr-

iinirliimself without capital, and the workman bread ; a
burthen upon the parish. With regard to the Statkrdshire iron
faunderies, it appears that whilst the price of iron has fallen in
the course of a few years from-ISi. and 191. to. 91. per ton, labour
still keeps its standard of ss. Or day. Iron is actually so!ii at U.
per ton, which *stiaids the nianutheturer in ill. Some of the mas-
ters employ froM ‘2 to 10,000 men. Under this view of the case,
the capitalist would soon find himself on the high road to ru:l:—he
toast inevitably give up—or the price of bbour naist fall:
We are sorry to learn that Thursday se'enight, nearly 100 la-
bo:aers in the rarighes of Kenton, Ashtield, and Monk-Sol:am,
SuiTolk, aßseintled in a tumultuous manner, with ti:e avowed de-
s: go of destreying the threshing maehines in the neighbourhood,
threatening violence to all who refused to join with them.
Three of these machines were destroyed in a short time ; but it is
to be hoped, as these deluded men reside in several parishes, that
the interference of thi. occupies, aided by the constables, may be
able to stop their unlawful proceedings.

Several more baronies in King's Count' an:l Westmeath
