RIOTS AT WOLVERHAMPTON.

This Town was thrown into considerable con-
fusion on Monday, by a number of miners arid
men employed in the ironworks,amounting to about
300 or 400, who came armed with bludgeons and
sticks, and seemed bent upon riot and depreda- •
tion. Mr. Fereday, whom it appears they had
followed from Bilston, addressed them from the
window of the Swan Hotel, and at the Angel Inn,
after which, by degrees they dispersed, upon his
engaging to meet them on the following morn-
ing. We hear that some of them were without
work, but that the greatest part struck from a
iletermivation not to have their wages lowered.
A nuniber of special constables were sworn in on
Monday night, and two troops of the Stafford-
shire Yeomanry at rived there yesterday morn-
ing : we hope their interference trill be finite-
ccssarv.

The Staffordshire Yeomanry Cavalry were about
three o'clock yesterday afternoon called into the
neighbourhood of Coseley, where a great number
of miners and others had collected, who assailed
them with showers of brick-bats and stones but
although several were hit, we are happy to say
none received any serious injury. They charged
the mob twice, but from the nature of the grounk
they could only secure one of the most active.
All was quiet when our account lei t, but-there
were a great many ill disposed per Sons about.
A troop of the 2d Dragoon Guards, and a body
of the Middlesex Militia, marched early this morn-
ing from our barracks for the above neighbour--

where horses are ready to remount the whole.

Private letters from l'aris notice the following
particulars respecting Marshal NEi-, which were
not mentioned by the Journals :

",T4ere has been a marked curious change ill
the tone of the Jacob-in party respecting him late'

spired by the clemenCy of the Kill, they `were
clamorous for his blood ; and now that it is pro'
posed to let justice take its course, they talk cl
nothing but his valour, his services, and his de.
