EVENING EDITION.

BRUTAL ATTACK.
(PROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
The meeting convened by the Sheriff of Lincolnshire to
take into consideration the propriety of petitioning Parliament
against the intention of Government with respect to the Corn-
laws, was held in the Castle-yard, Lincoln, on Friday last,
and was attended by a very large number of landowners and
occupiers, including the Earl of Winchilsca, Earl of Yar-
borough, Lord Worsley, M.P., Sir Montague Cholmelev,
Bart, Sir John Netthorpe, Bart., G. P. Heneage, Esq.,
R. A. Christopher, Esq., ALP., Hon. A. -S. Melville, Sir
Charles Anderson, Ban., the Dean of Windsor, the Sub-
Dean of Lincoln, T. G. Corbett, Esq., Charles Chaplin.
Esq., &c. &c. 'When the resolutions were put to the
meeting, thousands of hands were generally held up for
their adoption, and when persons unfavourable to the re-
solutions were invited to hold their hands up, between sixty
and sixty perhaps were visible, and those honest men who
dared to oppose the thousands of the landlords' slaves, viz.,
the farmers and labourers, there assembled, were marked
out, and some disturbance took place. Several cf the gentle-
men on the hustings exclaimed—" Turn them out;" at this
instant every Anti-torn-lawman at that meeting was grossly
atacked by the farmers with stacks; knocked down, and
brutally kicked when they were down. Such a das-
tardly attack was perhaj s never before witnessed. The in-
structions to turn the men out having been given from
the hustings, and as the persons on those hustings Were chiefly
magistrates, it is very probable gentlemen in the -commission
of the peace were the cause of this disturbance, by which so
much injury was done. Several of the ruffians of farmers,
who used their bludgeons, were known, and, after the meeting,
had meted out to them what they had meted out to others who
were unarmed when attacked by such nuinbers.
