of the school of the Ensigns, and thirty from the Univer-

, rection; half of them perished. One of theta, an ensign
named Osmotic)°, particularly distinguished himself; after
killing three General, they met the PriticeS6LOCNVICZ, and,
bowing with much politeness, told her she had nothing to fear
fur herself, as they only wanted her husband. The Grand
Duke, who was concealed in a closet, escaped by a subter-
ranean passage, and gained the village of Mukotow. A
great number of papers have been found in the Belvedere
relative to the secret police, which cost 6,000 florins per
diem, or 2,190,000 florins a year. The revenues of the
actual kingdom of Poland only amount to 100,000,000.

Parliament for the professed purpose of improving the •
Criminal Laws of this country have left the principal evils
complained of umeinedied, since they still retain their for-
mer character of undue severity.
" That, in order to satisfy public expectation, a

penal enactments; aid the punishment of death Omid no
longer be inflicted for et inns that affect praperty merely.
" S. That the present mode of committing to the
Judges a discretionary power to remit punishment is at-
tended with pernicious consequences; and it would he
desirable that milder penalties should be enacted, and in-
variably inflicted, the certainty of punishment operating
more forcibly than its severity.
" 4. That a Petition embodying these sentiments be
presented to Parliament• as the Petition of this Meeting,
and that the Members for the County be requested to give
it their support."

THE " TURN-OUT" IN LANCASHIRE.

(From a Correspondent of the Morning Merald..)

MANCHILSTER, DEC. 29.

This town, but more particularly its neighbourhood, is
in a state of ferment, occasioned by the immense number
of people (certainly not lest than 100,000) now out of
employ; for it is not the spinners only that suffer, but nu-
merous other trades that follow in their train, and are de-
pendent on them. The men seemed determined not to
yield to the reduction proposed by the masters, and the
masters seem as firm in their resolves as the men. Your
readers may not all be aware that the bone of contention
is, that the masters were paying 4s. Bd. for spinning 1,000
hanks of forties twist, whilst in other districts other mas-
ters were only paying 3s. 9th for the same quantity of
work. To remove this disadvantage, or to "equalize," as
masters term it, has been the cause of the turn-out; and,
however justified they may feel in the measure, it is con-
eidered by disinterested men to he, in the present excited
state of the country, an " untoward event." There is
line fact much to be lamented—which is, that the masters
never stop to consider whether or not the men can keep
their families with less wages than they happen to be earn-
ing; hut it is, " can we reduce their wages if we decide
upon a turn-out?" and, by the opinion of a majority of
the " combined masters" on this point, a turn-out is de-
cided en or deferred.

The men state, " that four months since, when there
was a greater demand for yarn than there is at present, and
when every mill had as many orders as they could execute,
the masters never hinted at a reduction of wages ; but now
that cotton has advanced in price, and the demand for yarn
berome less (as it generally doe. at this period of the year)
although there has been no alteration in the price of ?mi.-
tions, the masters seek to make up the difference in the
profits by reducing our wages, and tbie, too, at a season of
the year when they know we are the least able to resist t h
reduction."

Hitherto all their meetings have ended peaceably, and
their only object seems to be to prevail upon the spinners
of other districts to make common cause with them. Yes-
terday many hundreds congregated at Staley-bridge, and
were proceeding towards Hyde, where the mills are in fu I
work. On the road several agistrates, with a poses o f
constables, backed by a strong military force, met them,
and immediately commenced reading the Riot Act. One
of the Magistrates then rode in amongst them, and, in a
firm and determined tone, told them that unless they dis-
persed, be would instantly order the military to fire on
them. This measure had the desired effect, for they im-
meti.tely dispersed and returned to their homes.
From the measures taken yesterday and to-day by the
authorities in this town, it would appear that they are
apprehensive of a more serious disturbance than has yet
taken place. Whilst I have been writing this, a body of
at least five hundred of the Rids Corps, beaded by their
band, has twice passed my window, and have been parading
the town the most of the afternoon. The object must ,be
to intimidate the disaffected, or to create a feeling of secu-
rity in the minds of the manufacturers, who are prinei-
pally in town today, this being market•day. The Ho-
roughreeve has issued a requisition, calling upon the in-
habitants who are interested in keeping the peace of the
town, to attend the Town ball to-morrow to be sworn in,
and to enroll themselves as special constables.
The " turn-out" has evidently been the cause of the
principal disturbance in this neighbourhood ; for 1 hear
of no great complaint of the want of work in any branch
of trade, except by the hand-weavers, whose labour has
been superseded by the power loom ; but as yet they have
shown no dissaffeetion. The stocks of manufactured goods
in every line are unusually small. The broad silk trade,
which has increased amazingly in this town since the
"free-trade" system came into operation, is quite brisk:
as a proof of which, that article has advanced ten per
cent. within the present month. The canals have been
closed by the frost for several days, and I, for the present,
must close my narrative. P. Y. M.
