Most unprecedented obstinacy. The people in
a state ready for insurrection, the Offices of Go-
vernment completely disorganised, and money
supplied to the Royal Treasury by the sale of
trading licenses at once ruinous to the National
Itevenue, and increasing, if it is possible, to do

return to
a better and a wiser system. These ac-
e°ants are indeed heart-sickening, and we cannot
but reprobate the man who persists in conduct
which reason sheaved could be conducive to
bh° good purpose,
and 4•1101 positive experience

BRUSSELS, JULY 31.—The subscription made
at Verviers for the relief of the sufferers by the
fire at that village produced above 7000 francs in
the first 24 hours. The inhabitants of Spa, and
the strangers there, have also subscribed 1500
francs.

A letter from Paris, dated Monday, states. that
the Courier Francais of ,the preceding day had
been seized 48 hours after publication, in conse-
quence of a letter which appeared in it from a
person who had abjured the Catholic religion and
turned Protestant.

A letter from Madrid, in a French paper,
says—" A licence has just been granted to one
Gavizia, contractor for the bull-fights and dealer
in oxen, for the sum of ten millions of reals, four
in ready money and six in bills of exchange on
himself, authorizing him to. import into Spain in
foreign vessels, 600 tons of English manufactured
cotton goods, free of duty Itis estimated that
Gavizia and his associates (supposed to be three
in number) will gain ten millions each."
The French Papers are much occupied with
account of a curious prosecution which has been
instituted against two brothers, named Claude
and Michael .11,uggieri, celebrated artists in the ,
fabrication of fire-works. On occasion of the
rejoicings consequent on the coronation of King
Charles X., these artists were engaged by the
Public Authorities of Paris ,to exhibit specimens
of their talents. Unfortunately, several explo-
sions took place irregularly, and the fire-works
fell among the crowd, killing several persons
and .wounding others. The two brothers, it
seems, gntertained strong feelings of rivalship in
their art against each other, and they mutually re-
.proached each other with being the cause of the'
accidents in.question. Both of them, however,
were prosecuted criminally for their neglect ; but
the feature which will appear most singular to
English readers is, that the parents of a young
woman, who had been killed, intervene as in a
civil proceeding, claiMing damages! The daughter
was a dress-maker, 'of the age of 25 ; and her
parents set a value upon her of 10,000 franks,
about 400/. . Singular, however, as this proceed-
ing is, the English common law , allows the same
sort of action, though it has become almost obso-
lete from disuse.

We are happy to find that the statement re,

BRADFORD COMBERS AND WEAVERS.-At the
masters' meeting, yesterday week, the proposal frequently
before adverted to was again broached, of bringing the mills to
an entire stand ; and on Wednesday a specific proposal was
made, that all the mills in the town should cease to work on
Saturday, the 6th of August. After some discussion, this
motion was put to the vote, and carried by a large majority,
there being for it 33, against it 6, voices. To prevent the per-
sons who have continued their work, and abstained from joining
the union, from being thrown entirely out of bread, it is in-
tended. to make them a weekly allowance of something more
than is given •by the union to the unemployed, so long as the
works remain suspended. The works-en, seeing that all hope
of reconciliation is for the present at an end, are leaving the
town in numbers to seek employment elsewhere. Their families
are breaking up and separating. Friday week two cart-loads
of children were sent to Leeds, to be disposed of amongst their
supporters in this place ; and on Wednesday last two additional
cargoes arrived here from the same place. The usual weekly
meeting of the workmen was held yesterday week at Fairweather
Green, Mr. Tester, in the chair. Mr. Tester, without entering
into any particulars as to the state of the finances of the Union
Society, declared, that the Committee were now certain that
their store could never be exhausted. At first they only trusted
and believed they should be supported—now they were certain
of it. They could have money from a hundred different places
for nothing but the trouble of fetching it ; and, rather than the
workmen of Bradford should be overcome, the Committee
would canvass every town and village throughout England for
supplies. Before the strike for an advance, steps were taken
to ascertain the disposition of the workmen in the town and
neighbourhood of Bradford, and 14.000 parsons entered their
names as approving of the plan, and as willing to act upon it.
This was union ; and by union alone could an advance -of
wages be obtained.—( Leeds Independent.) .

It is with extreme regret we have to record
the death, by drowning, of Mr. ESSAY DIGBY,
second son of the late llean DIGBY. This re-
gretted young gentleman, who had but a few
days ago attained his 21st year, was on a visit
with his uncle, the Rev. Mr. Digby Landens-
town, near Naas. On the morning of Thursday
last, after breakfast, he proceeded to bathe in

the canal, having given directions to his servant
to have his gig and horses hi waiting at an adja-
cent bridge. The servant, alarmed at his unu-
sual delay, made inquiries respecting him, and
was informed by a woman who came along the
canal, that she saw a gentleman strip about an
hour before, and go into the water. On pro-
ceeding to the place, his clothes were found, but
no vestige of his person, till about three hours
after, with all the appearance of life extinct.—
Mr. DigbY
was a young gentleman of great pro-
mise, and had just completed his College course;
lie had but lately been put in possession of con-
siderable property ; and, it is said, was on the
eve of forming a most respectable matrimonial
connection.--(Dublin Freeman's Journal.)
