only insulted with the cries of " i 1 bas lea Commis !
nye la Liherle ! Titons.les !" but were assailed by
vollies of glass bottles, and other missiles. M. Malin
and his clerks seeking safety in flight were pursued
by the enraged mob, armed with -pitchforks, Wild-
geons, and other weapons. Several houses, where
they demanded shelter, were shut against them, till
covered with blood and bruises, they arrived ut
public-house, the master of which admitted them,
and did every thing in his power to save them, but
the multitude surrounded the house, broke the win-
dows, and threatened to pull it down, if the fugi-
tives were not given up to them. The municipal audio-
rides did not interfere, and a party of twenty gen-
darmes, convinced that their lives would be 'uteri-
liced if they attempted to resist the fury of the
people, fled, and left the victims to their fate. They.
were then torn from their hiding place, and dragged
to the door. M. Malin, after his books and papers
had been taken from him and torn to pieces, had
pistol, which he carried about him, although he
never attempted to use it, broken upon his person,
mid was cruelly beaten and trampled upon till the
barbarians believed he was dead. It appears, how-
ever, that though in a most deplorable state, he still
survives. One of the clerks escaped on horseback
the fate of the other is not stated.

For several days riots had taken place in the small
town of Lafeuillade, near Perigueux, among► the
lowest class of the populace, who constantly in-
sulted the National Guards, amounting to about 60
men, when, on the sth, at about eight in the even-
ing, one of the ringleaders was arrested and taken
by the commandant of the National Guards, assisted
by three of his men, towards the prison. They
were, however, assailed by about 20 of the mob,
and had to sustain a long and unequal contest, and
at length must have either had recourse to their
fire-arms or have abandoned their prisoner, when the
latter interfered, declared he was determined to
submit, and succeeded in prevailing upon his rescuers
to disperse. Order was then restored, and has not
since been disturbed.

A letter from Tarnscon announces that disorders

prevail in that town and neighbourhood. A few
days ago the inhabitants of Miglos assembled to the
number of not fewer than 1,200, and not only con-
fined Baron de Vendomois, the Mayor, and wounded
several persons who came to his succour, but pil-
laged and set fire to his house, destroyed his woods,
and devastated his fields, in order to force him to
quit the country.
Sixteen pressmen and compositors appeared yes-
terday before the Tribunal of Correctional Police,
on the charge of combining to prevent the continu-
ance of work at the printing-offices where machinery
is used. Among a number of witnesses examined
was M. Duverger, sub-director of the Royal print-
ing-office, who stated that the mutiny of the work-
men begun in that establishment on the 3d instant,
when the men employed at the presses left their
work, because the mechanical presses were to be
again employed ; and, on the same day, the com-
positors left their eases, and joined the printers
at the Derriere du Maine. Other witnesses
stated that the workmen declared they would
not work where there were mechanical presses. M.
Agier deposed that he had received orders from the
General-in-Chief, on the 2d instant, at midnight,
to march with one or two battalions to the Royal
printing-office. He executed the order, and found
the sub-director surrounded by the deputies of the
journeymen-printers. He then received orders to
proceed to the Barriere du Maine, and to leave part
of the troops in the place du Pantheon. M. Agier
accompanied by the Lieutenant-Colonel, went to
the barriere, to see what was going on there. They
found a great number of men collected together;
several came up and asked them whether they would
join General Carbonnel, who was among them, sue
well as M. Fain and M. Baudouin, who were recom-
mending conciliatory measures. The deputies of
the workmen maintained that machinery might be
destroyed by Government if public utility required
it; they also maintained that they had a right to
leave off work. M. Agier told them they were
wrong. Some of them replied that they were de-
puties there to prevent di,,order and mischief. In
the large room where the meeting II as held, the
greatest ord r prevailed. The deputies drew up
articles. M. Agier heard them discuss them. In
his opinion, it was by no means their intention to
form a combination. A promise was made that no
machinery should be used at the Royal printing-
office; but two days after, contrary to promise, an
ordinance appeared, erescribing the use of the
mechanical presses. Several other witnesses were
heard to the same effect, and the filet of a combi-
nation not being proved, the tribunal acquitted the
parties.

The individuals arrested upon the charge of having
taken put in the late disturbances at Rouen, have
been tried by the Tribunal of Correctional Police.
Several were discharged, one was condemned to
imprisonment for two years, one for one year, and
one for one month.

The following intelligence is dated Cassel, Sept.
8 :--" In the evening of the 6th inst. the public
tranquillity was disturbed here by an assemblage of
workmen and labourers, who attacked several bakers'
shops, and broke the doors and windows. The
troops were called out, and order wts soon restored.
The citizens took no part in these excesses; on the
contrary, they expressed their indignation at them.
The rioters have been arrested."

l3indocci, the celebrated Italian Improvisatore,
has just arrived in Paris, and will give a public
exhibition of his extraordinary talent tomorrow, at
the great room in the Rue Taitbout, by delivering
an impromptu in Italian poetry.
The Globe of this morning contains the following
article Apprehensions have been expressed that
the peace of the country week] ere long be disturbed,
but it is easy to demonstrate that this it but a veil'
and chimerical fear. War would undoubtedly be
inevitable if all Europe' was liku the Peninsula, go-
verned by imbecility,. and tyranny; but it is impos•
ry
sible to de that the Cabinets of the great Powers
are truly enlightened, and fully understand the real
interests of the countries Nvlitute destinies are con.

,
tided to them. Now- these interests are opposed
with an irresistible force to any interruption of the
present mate- of pellee by an act of aggression
against Fraocei Affairs at the present day are very
dillercet from what they were fifteen years ago.
Then, divided from the other European States foi
a (miler of: a century, France bad become corn-

pletely estranged from theta; they hadbeeome ha-
bituated to act without her, and shelled likeSvise,
dispensed with their association, and our only inter-
course with our neighbours was with arms in our
hands. A prolonged peace has totally changed this
state of things. There is not now a single country
that does not derive important advantages and pros-
perity front its connection with us, or to whose
public wealth we are not an essential aid. This is
so evidently true, that the possibility even of a flip.
ture with Franca was sufficient to shake the credit
of all Europe, and produce heavy falls in the public
funds at Vienna, Berlin, Anisterdam, and London.
We may easily calculate, by the disastrous effects of
the mere idea of such an event, what would hap- ,
pen in these capitals, if a declaration of war were
actually to be made. The long duration of peace
has united us so intimately with other nations,
that a rupture would produce incalculable evil 4,
and place the Government that should sacrifice the
good of its country to a false notion of policy, in a
most critical position. It is very possible to con-
ceive the violence of the shock that Would he felt
by the public credit of any country that should place
itself in hostility to France. To judge of this, we
have only to consider the value of our commteciel
relations with each. . lf, for ,example, Prussia should
wish to interfere in the question of the separation of
the Belgian provinces, she would immediate!! lose,
without inking into account the other eonstapieneets
of such a step, an anneal commerce of not less then
30,000,000 f., and which, by the Cale end immerge-
went of an able Ministry, might be easilyßusele, by assuming a hostile attitude, would de-
prive its Baltic provinces of a continuer not less
portent ; and Austria, by a like procedure, would
see its Italian !States lose beyond recovoy enured
commercial transactions with France to the great
amount of nt lesst 40,000,000 francs. if therefore
100,000,000 francs were thus torn from the trade,
manufactures, anti agriculture of these Powers, the
most pernicious contetprencei to their tedit and Ice.
sources must inevitably ensue; and of this not one
of their Statesmen can be ignorant. We nay there-
fore be confident that the principal Cabinets of En-
rope have long ago calculated what 'would be the
inevitable effects of war upon the commerce arid
finances of their respective countries, and are eon-
winced that the law of necessity will compel them
to maintain and consolidate the general peace."
The Chefs de Bataillon, Pellepra, and Marc, yes.
terday presented to the King, through the medium
of his Aid-de-Camp, Colonel du Minim, a very
animated address, bearing the sigtintwot, of upwarda
of 501) officers of the old army, expressing their de-
termination to devote themselves to his cause, and
desiring to be placed in front of the enemy, if any
power should dare to threaten France.

Admiral Sir Edward Codrington arrived on the
6th inst. at Hamburg, on board a steam-packet, on
his way to St. Petersburgh, by Lubeck.
From the Brussels papers of the 13th inst.,
which reached us this morning, it appears that tran-
quillity continues to prevail. The following are the
only paragraphs worth extracting :—" The Belgian
Deputies of the States-General embarked in com-
pany on board the steam-boat at Antwerp, for Rot-
terdam. Yesterday morning a noise, like that of
the firing of cannon, was heard in the direction of
Mona, and a report was circulated of the Baran)*
having attacked Mons, with the intention of driving
out the garrison. This report, which turned out to
be unfounded, produced a powerful sensation at
Brussels. Soldiers, who will no longer serve under
Dutch officers, or be employed ageinsoheir emintry,
and their friends, continue to arrive at head-gum tete.
These bra4men are reesieed with cordiality. Four
hundred pieces of cannon, on the Scheldt and in the
citadel, are
.pointed towards the city of Antwerp,
which is being fortified with the utmost activity,
and all the young trees outside of the town have
been cut down to form palisades. In a few days
Antwerp will be is a complete state of defence. The
theatre at Brussels was re-opened last night. The
interior was ornamented with flags of the national
colours, and Lafeuillsde swig the Brahavonne,'
the whole of the spectators joining in the chorus."

" The Minister of Public Instruction, in the
expose which he gave in the Chamber of Peers on
the application of trial by jury to offences of the
Press, brought a serious charge against the Journals.
The Press, said the Duke de Broglie, has, since
our glorious revolution, greatly abused the liberty
which it obtained. Its ebtrrations, excusable at
first, ought now to cease. Tile period of indulgence
it now gone by.
" This mode of attacking the Press is only a re-
petition of that which has for some time past been
commonly 01144 of In certain saloons. There has
not been, it would seem, enough of declamation
against these journals who do not,quite coincide in
the opinions of some Ministers as to the measures of
Government, and who indulge in a rational censure
against some acts of power. One can hardly imagine
the intolerance of a certain coterie—a sort of pew
congregation, which calls itself infallible. Un-
doubtedly we should be amongst the first to de-
precste the offences of the Press, for we are aware
that liberty to the powerful, ought to be temperate,
and that all abuse of it must tend to the die-
turbance and the destruction of social order. But
is it, we ask, within a short period of the glorious
days of July, when the Press rendered such import-
ant services, not only to liberty but to public order,
that it is considered necessary to make a public
charge against it ? Could the Ministry of the Con.
rogation have spoken of the Press in other language
than that used by the Duke de Broglie ? Was it not
in the name of liberty, that it wished to abolish the
freedom of the Press ? We are aware that self-
interest often mistakes itself for the interest of the
country, and imagines that social order is entlan•
gored, because a Journal indulges itself in a dis-
agreeable censure; but this would not be the course
of an honourable administration, composed of men
of ability devoted to a constitutional system. If
any Journahrrianagress the bounds of the law, let
them be brought to a sense of their duty; but let
not bear of ' indiggence towards that which has
tendered incontestable services.
"But is there no more importune object to occupy
Ministers at present than the offences of -the Jour-
nals ? Are there no other dangers more-imminent—
other cares more imperative ? Every thing is to be
reconstructed in our society, and the talents of M.

de Broglie might find employment in matters much
more urgent. We, in our turn, thuy say to him,
that 'the time is gone by' far declamations against
Press, end that it will be unworthy of an enlight.
cued and patriotic Minister to take up expressions
familiar to such Ministers us :Villele and Peyronnet.

DEATH OF THE RIGHT. HON. WILLIAM

lIVSKISSON.

(From a Correspondent of the Timex.)

LIVKILPOOL, THURSDAY, TWO O'CLOCK' 41.111.
I am sorry to inform. you that an express has just
rad ved, bringing us information that. Mr. Huskisson
died ut Eccles last night, shortly after nine o'clock.
You will nu likely bear of this melancholy event
before my letter reaches you, bitt as there must be
many details regarding it, in which' the public will
take au interest, I shall make a point of getting to
Eccles us soon us I can, upon the return of day-light.
11LXVEN O'CLOCK, A.M.

The appearance of this town is most lamentable
and gloomy. The deepest dejection is visible on
every countenance. All the shops are half closed,
and in most of the private houses the shutters are
too. The '
shutters of the Exchange News-rooms,
and the blinds of the Underwriters' room, are both
closed, and the signs of mourning are in the town
universal. There is a wonderful contrast in the
docks, where the ships are rigged Otit in their gayest
colours, and have oil their streamers flying. They
expect a visit from the Duke of Wellington, which
I have just 'been informed that they will not receive.
The Duke has stated his readiness to receive the
freedom of the town voted to him by the Corpora-
tion, as privately as possible, but has also declared
his unwillingness to make any public uppearanee in
the town. He has also declined the 'invitatio* to
dine in the Town-hail, which was given to him by
the Mayor and Corporation ; and in an hour's time
placards will be issued, declaring that dinner to be
postponed sine die.
I have just been informed that had Mr. Iles-
kisson been alive, he would this morning have met
Sir James Carnegie, to settle the details of a pro-
specter for establishing a steam navigation company,
for extending still further the advantages which are
to be expected to be derived from the employment
of the locomotive engines on the rail-road, The ewe,
ployment of steam-vessels has hitherto been confined
either to the largest rivers or the most frequented
coasts of England, or to those places in foreign
countries which are accessible after one or two days'
stoyeges. A company is now forming which pre-'
poses to employ a regular line of steam-vessels be-
tween Liverpool and Amalie, between London and
Bordeaux, Lisbon, Gibraltarond the Mediterranean,
and between Bristol and some of the principal
ports in Abe West Indies. Steam-boats are likewise

I have just this moment received from an ()tibial
personage who saw the accident which befell Mr,
tluskisson, an amok of it, which differs in Ip;c on!
slight particulars from. that which I ttemonitted you
last night. According to my inforniant, the North-
nmbrien engine had no sooner smelted than several
gentlemen alighted, in order to stretch their limbo,
and have a more a close inspection of the line of
road. I understand, but am not sure of the fag",
that a plaited had been issued by the Directors, re-
questing that no gentleman would quit the car dur-

to get out of the way ;„ end thus, irp their eager-
steels to escape, one gentlernee, without intend-

int it, impeded the other. Many gentlemen
ran beyond the station of the Royal 'car, pad

one of the party on the road, sprung ,with gteat
activity from the road into the car. Mr. Magnet
and 'Mr. Harrison, one of the Directorti, clung" fast
to the Royal car, and -es the interval bet ween,lhe
two lines of Railroad is from fear feet to six;feet
wide, owed their, safety to their fortunate presence
of mind. Mr. Htiskisson, as I told youlesterday,
wavered as to the course which )10 should pursue,
and in his agitation lost his balance and fell. Dr.
'handfed] of Liverpool, and Dr. Hunter of Edin-
burgh, immediately ran forward to offer their assis-
tance to Mr. Huskisson. One glance at him, es he
lay on the road, was sufficient to make them tie-
quainted with the dreadful nature of the:injuries
which he had received, and with 'the necessity of
cutting off his leg from the middle''of the thigh to
give him the slightest chance for life. The 'Earl of
Wilton, who throughout the lamentable occurrences
of the slay showed great presence of mind, applied
the tourniquet to the thigh in a most surgemAike
manner. Whilst this was doing Mrs. Huskisson
was using every exertion in her power to reach her
lacerated hutiband; but as it was thought that her
presence might:impede the Operations of the medical
men, and might also agitate the object of their at-
tentions very unnecessarily, she WAS prevented from
fulfilling her purpose by the, application of gentle
but well-intended force.
The first words. that ,Mr. HutikissttnipOke after
the accident was to'deelare his conviction that he
was a dead man. His next were to caul for his Wee-
tionme and almost distracted wife.. Her friends,
who Were endeavouring to persuade her not to go
near her husband, then desisted from their solicita-
tions, and helped her to descend from the car.—
Whilst they were thus engaged, a board was pro-
cured, upon which Mr. Iluskisson was placed, and
then lifted into the orchestral car, from which the
musicians had previously been removed. lam told
that, at first, he expressed some reluctance to this
arrangement, requesting the surrounding spectator.,
to let him die where he was; but that he shortly
afterwards yielded with resignation to the.wishes of
his friends. When he was placed in the car, Lord
Colville supported his head, the Earl of Wilton, who
sat at the bottom of the car, and not on the bench,
held his hand and arm, and Mrs. Iluskisson hung
over him, watching his agonized features. It was
deter Mined to carry him to the first gentleman's
house which was near the Railwayord as that hap-
pened to belong to his friend Mr. Blackburn, of
Eccles, the Northumbrian proceeded at her full
speed to that place..

teem', wstAn mAwenzmn, init. O'CLOCK.

I have just 'arrived at 'this populous village, and
have been fortunate enough to collect the following
account of Mr. Iluskisson's reception here. The
accident, as I told you before, occurred at five mi-
nutes before twelve o'clock, and it was a little after
one o'clock When Mr. Iluskisson was brought to
Eccles. On his arrival every preparation was made
to convey him, as easily as possible, to the house of
the Rev. Mr. Blackburn, to which, I have learned,
that be hittiself desired to be brought, and which is
not more than two hundred yards front the Railroad.
It is stated, but I 'cannot believe the fuer, that Mr.
Blackburn, who was himself in one of the cars in
the rear, had not even so much as heard of the ac-
cident which had befallen his lamented friend, then
lying in a dying state in his house, until his arrival
in Manchester, and that he was only informed of it
upon being asked a question, of which he could not
comprehend the meaning, us to the condition in
which he had left Mr. Iluskisson. Mr. Iluskisson,
on reaching Mr. Blackburn's house, was, by desire of
Mrs. Blackburn, laid upon a couch in the drawing.
roam. , A bed-room was prepared for his reception,
but Dr. Brandreth and Dr. limiter, who had accom-
panied him froth Parieside-bridge, thought that it
wonld.be More advisable not to remove him. Mr.
Unit, the principal surgeon in Eccles, happened to be
veer the Railroad when Mr. Iluskisson arrived,
and hearing that an accident had happened, but
not lthewing to whom, came forward and volun-
teered his assistance. Ile followed Mr. Iles- '
kisson to Mr. Blackburn's house • but though Dr
.13randreth, Dr. Hunter, and Mr. house;
were present,
Mr. Huskisson's friends thought that still further
medical assistance was necessary. The Earl of
Wilton in consequence started for Manchester in the
locomotive engine, and in a period almost incredibly
short, considering that Mr. Rimsorne wax to be
found in so busy a place as Manchester then was,
returned with that gentleman, and a case of ampu-
tating instruments. Mr. Itansome, on seeing his pa-
tient, did not deem it safe to perform an operation
in consequence of the weak state in which he
found him. Unfortunately, Mr. Fluskisson did not
rally at all in the course of the afternoon, but went
on gradually sinking. At a quarter past six o'clock
Mr. Blackburn, ut his own request, administered to
him the sacrament, which he received with great de-
votion. Mr. Iluskisson, it appears, was at all times
subject to spasmodic attacks ; and shortly after the
sacrament had been administered, hie tendency to
spasmodic action increased, and he was often thrown

into violent convulsion. His sufferings were ex-
cruciating, but he bore them with patience, ford-
tude, and resignation. When there was an interval
of pain, he took occasionally a little wine and water,
and a few grapes, and offered such topics of con-
solation to his wife and surrounding friends as he
thought best suited to alleviate their grief. About
seven or eight o'clock he began to sink so rapidly
that all intentions of amputation were given up
by his medical attendants. Mr. Bansome said
that if it were attempted, the patient would die
under the knife, and therefore refused to perform it
as calculated to aggravate his sufferings without any
hope of ultimate advantage. It has been stated in
the neighbourhood that Mr. Huskisson died from
loss of Wood, but this was by no means the case.
There was applied to his thigh at Prokside-bridge,
by the advice of Dre, Brandreth and Hunter, and by
the manual assistance of the Earl of Wilton, an arti-
ficial tourniquet, which stopped the of sion of blood,
and, comparatively speaking, he lost but little. When
he first reached Eccles all bleeding had nearly ceased,
and the cause of his death is therefore more likely to
have arisen from the laceration of his muscles, and
the consequent derangement of his whole system.
At five minutes past nine his sufferings were termi-
nated by death, and at that moment Mrs. Huskisson,
who had never left him from the 'bat moment in
which this lamentable diaster took place' was by his
'side. As soon as it was ascertained that lie was
dead, this unhappy lady, who had evinced to the
hot mriment of his life an admirable control over
ber,4,4wii feelings, could no longer maintain her forced
appear ire of serenity. She yielded to the natural
inthienee of her feelings, and at last was separated
from the body almost by force by the Earl of Wilton
and tinEd Granville,. who also beard the hot groans
of the expiring Stateernan.

. ~
After Mrs._ tluskisson bad been removed from
the room, the surgeons proCeeded to is nearer in-
vestigation of the injuries which Mr. liuskisson had
sustained. I stated them to you generally in my
last letter; but I am now able, through the kind-
ness of Mr. Holt, from whom I received many of
the particulars which I have just stated to you, to
describe them more particularly. When Mr. Ms-
hisson fell, he must have fallen obliquely as regards
the line of the Railroad. His thigh and his leg
must have been in such a position as to have formed
with the line of the Railroad a triangle, of which
the angle at the apex would be formed by the baud
of the knee. The wheel of the engine thus passed
over the calf of his kg and the middle of the thigh.
leaving the knee itself uninjured. There was a
compound fracture in the upper part of the left leg
just above theealf. The wheel must also have gone
shoitingly over the thigh up to the middle of it, us
the muscles were all in that direction laid bare in
one inimense flap, and the bone was severely ft-no!
tared 0111.1 comminuted. Indeed, it was foetid so:
tommitutted as to be almost a powder. Before the
eorptia,Wtia laid out Mr. Holt, and Mr. Ransome,
itHil sewed up the lacerated pints, so as to render

the body as seemly as possible. I may here add,
that it was the unanimous opinion of his medical
attendants, that had Mr. Iluskisson been of a good
constitution, the injury might slot have proved fatal;
but be was only just recovering from the effects of
a surgical operation, performed upon him since the
funeral of his late Majesty, and from the system of
depletion to which he bad been subjected, and of
which the public may form some idea when they
hear that for the last six weeks he had taken no other
sustenance that► tea, toast, arid gruel, was unable to
support the loss of blood which would have neces-
sarily followed the amputation.
