THE RIOT AT BLACKBURN.

The Town-hall, County Court-offices, and the
private residences along Preston New-road, Branch-
road, and King-street, suffered chiefly from the
violence of the rioters at Blackburn on Thursday
night. The reported " sackieg" of Pleasington-hall
is DOW stated to be utterly unfounded. About 100
persons attacked the house, but beyond the glass in
eight or ten windows, no further damage was done.
The besiegers were fired on, and it is said one or
two were injured. They took the advice of Colonel
Cowdon, and decamped before a charge was made
upon them.
On Friday morning several persons were appre-
hended on a charge of riot, and brought before the
borough magistrates.—The prisoners were—Thomas
Kaney, John Livesey, John Richmond, James Wad-
dington, James Ashton, Nicholas Hindle, David
Bullen (one of the libermed poachers), Roger Live-
sey, and John Corless. Mr. T. Clough prosecuted,
and applied for a remand till Monday next, which
was granted. Applications for bail were made by
several of the prisoners, but were refused. In con-
sequence of the assembling of crowds of persona in
the market place on Friday, the magistrates issued
a notice forbidding such assemblages, and authoris-
ing the police to take offenders into custody. By
this means the large crowds of the previous day
were prevented, and other measures were adopted
for the preservation of order. During the breaking
of the windows of private houses on Thursday even-
ing by the mob, sever a persons narrowly escaped
severe injuries, and many were struck by the mis-
siles. At 3 o'clock the Relief Committee met at the
Town-hall, and after some discussion passed the fol-
lowing conclusions :—" The Blackburn Relief Com-
mittee consider it just to express their absolute cer-
tainty that the disturbance in Blackburn on the
evening of Nov. 6, incident on the conviction of cer-
tain persons of poaching, was in no sense due to the
distress, or to the administration of relief by the
poor-law guardians or the relief committee. The
friends of those convicted seem, as far as the com-
mittee can discover after inquiry, to be persons who
out of sheer mischief commenced the breaking of
windows without discrimination, inasmuch as the
windows of empty houses, as well as those of ope-
ratives, were broken. The committee, therefore,
express their conviction that there is in this affair
nothing to shake their confidence in the manly pa-
tience and quiet behaviour of the sufferers as a class.
Many of those operatives have to-day expressed
their sorrow that persons should have acted so
wrongfully, and cheerfully offered to enrol them-
selves as special constables."
