ORATOR HUM.

PRESTON, SECT. S.—The notorious Hint came
in here this morning about eleven o'clock from
our Castle : the tew despicable partisans he has
here, endeavoured to make his coming as public
as possible. One of their leaders, Houghman, a
cooler in a white hat, with " Hunt and Liberty,"
and " No Corn Bill," upon it, went out of town,
accompwried by about 200, including women and
children, to meet !rim and the other worthies ; and
when these jail-birds had got neatly opposite to
the Head Inn, their stage-coach was stopped for
Mister Hunt to harangue the rabble, which might
now amount to three or 400 of all sorts ; at
least one-half was assembled out of curiosity to see
what was coming. Hunt, who was sitting upon the
coachman's box, ti►ett stood up, ►and waving his
hat to the rabble as a signal to shout, he told them,
that if he spoLe, it perhaps would be called hi.;l►
treason. The lash trf a coachman's whip, whilst
driving past, happened accidentally to touch one
of the fellows upon their coach, when limit bel-
lowed out, "He is hired to cause a riot." He
then continued to harangue the snob, till he had
quite tired his hearers: his language was atissue of
abuse against the Magistrates, Soldiers, and Jut y,
and a mere repetition of his former speeches.—
He saw it because a fiat business, as many of
his hearers begat, to leave the side of the coach.
They then got about a dozen poor fellows to drag
the coach out of town, and as they passed the
Mayor's house, several attempts were made from
the coach to procure a shout, but all in vain. It
looked more like a mourning procession passing
down Church-street, from the slowness of the
motion, and not one voice was raised to dicer
either Hunt or his companions. I should think he
must have found himself much disappointed in
meeting with not one respectable person to notice
him ; yet, as no doubt it will be puffed off in
some of the Jacobin London Papers, to the dis-
grace of our loyal town, I think it a duty I owe
to you and to the public, ro give you a faithful
account of the whole, having been au eye-witness
to the good sense of my fellow townsmen, and the
detestation iu which Hunt is held by them,
N. B. He told them he expected meetine a nu-
merous company on Monday next at the Crown
and Anchor. Thank God ! we shall get clear of
his► out of this county soon.

BLACKBURN, Wednesday Afternoon, 4 o'Clock.

The town has been kept in a b tate ofxontinued
ferment all day by a report that Hunt and his as-
sociates would return Irons Lancaster by this
road. Great numbers of the Reformers set off
about eleven. o'clock to meet these Patriots, with
flags bearing the common inscriptions of the re-
bellious' party. Soon atter two the approach of
the great man was announced, and he entered the
town on the box of a stage coach, not drawn by
horses, but by a host of two-legged asses...
Johnson and poorhouse, along with Chapman,
the orange-dealer, front Manchester, were on the
roof of the coach, and Knight and some others
occupied the interior. The cavalcade drew up to
the Old Bull Inn, but all the front rooms being
previously engaged, Hoot was obliged to put up
with a seat in the bar ; but as Mr. Yearsley had
very prudently taken precautions to prevent, as
much as possible, the admission of Mr. Hunt's
followers into his house, lie did not remain long:
Hunt again mounted his seat 00 the box of the
coach, from, which he uttered, not a speech, but
some nonsensical, incoherent sentences, between
every-oneiof which he made a halt, to allow time
for the assembled multitude to greet bins with
their cheers. Some of the Officers of the troop of
Hussars stationed in the town appeared at the
window near to the Orator, against whom, as
might be expected, ,he snack some insignificant,
contempfltot-13 remarks.
Hont produced from his pocket some-
thing which he said was part of the skull of those
poor innocents who had suffered on the 16th of last
month. Upon the whole, Hunt must 'find, from
his recejition here to-day, that his popularity is
very much on the decline ; for though a great
crowd were collected, at least four-fifths of them
attended through col iosit y, and a very small pro-
portion joined in the SLUUIS which were attempted
to be raised.

Our Readers will recollect, that a few 016:
ago we informed them, that naval preparations
a very warlike chat...etcr were going forwod/.
We refer tothe Letter from Plymouth Dock. in °lir
Paper this day, to prove the truth of our intelligence;
It is certain,that there have been sometime rtaiwuri
of war, and an expectation that the Continent°
Powers will be obliged to take part in it. 14"gi
titer the continuance of the Persian Ambasse"r
in this County, after he had made preparati°°
for his departure, and had almost fixed the day'
has any connexion with the active Naval arrange.
[Dents, which we mentioned at the same time'
is more than we oan pretend to say, or evets
to conjecture, but that great events ore 6P-
proaching we have little doubt, from the in'
formation which we have received from a qtiurttr
on which we have had no occasion to revolt °lir
reliance.

We have the satisfaction of informig °`)
Readers, that JACOB M'INNIS, who was receni',
l
arrested in Ireland, has been finally Committed lc'
Chester Castle to take his trial at the next As'
sizes, for the attempted murder of litacn, theC°ll'
stable. It may fairly be asked, what great vics°l
has IIuNT obtained ? What good has he done to (41i
People, or to the Cause of Freedom ? or, "'l°.
reason is there for congratulations upon his Pr°
vidential escape, be having most nobly solicitols"
aid of did Police, and' heroically consigned s"
care of his personage to the Preservers of cite
Peace. To them the thanks art due for thesafetY°'
HENRY HUNT, and it might he as well to sec
them from being wasted on him, who has °4
d
shewn the way to Treason, but finds it t°°
:homy for himself.

The course which has been observed 'rid'
respect to some of the Persons who have been
taken into custody for seditious writings, or otbef
lawless practices, by issuing warrants against
them for every new offence, is the only wilY
to
damp the spirit of those Miscreants who want to
overthrow our Religion and Monarchy. Wheoever
these Reforming Miscreants incur the notice e
the Law, prosecution upon prosecution ought• t°
take place, and no lenity should be shewft to tlOg
infamous wretches who, for their own wicked

ends, are incessantly labouring to bring ruin
the Country.

Though we have thought it our duty to coP/
the account of the proceedings of the Coroner
Inquest at Oldham, yet we deem it proper to
caution our Readers against a full reliance on iri
accuracy, as it appears to be written with a bias
favour of Mr. HARMAN, who is obviously intend(
to be the .hero of the Piece, and who al.',
tainly exhibits himself in a character, upon 04°
occasion, which has never been assumed by 84
other of his profession, at least as far as we Lave
beard. To render Mr: HARMAN'S figure 0°rs
prominent, and give a stronger effect to his Per
formance, Mr. BATTY, the Coroner's Clerk,
held forth in a ludicrous point of view, probsa"
with equal fidelity.

It is with much pleasure we finJ, that OsOr''
one of those sanctuaries of Learning and rietY'
which have hitherto been an honour, not only E('
the British Empire, but to the civilized world°
has held forth an example of loyalty and attecir.
ment to our unrivalled Constitution which 00g
to be followed by every Corporation in the
ed Kingdom. On this occasion, we cannot crtP
better than-copy the following judicious articl°
from The Oxford Journal of yesterday : tr
" We are happy in the opportunity of giving publicali°:
this day to an i;lddress vottd by the Mayor and Corporate
e,
of the City of Oxford, to his Royal Higbnes the Prince Ile;
gent. We are glad to see them taking the lead ar this Or
of loyalty; and setting, with so zealous a -regard to the rOit);
tenancy of social order, an example, which other. MuniciPs
Bodies would act rightly in imitating, during a seasua °f 6o
much peril. We say a season of so murk peril; because
though in other days Treason and Infidelity have gone fors'
to convulse the country and to curse the land, yet they
existed in a separatecond ition, and waged their respective CVal.
against the Church and State single-handed. The allian4o
of two for the perpetration of evil was a singular inflicti%
reserved for the present times; and it is this unhallowed gal ,
arost pernicious confederation, which, at the paramount
both of, our religion and our country, should asval‘eto
our watchfulness and discretion, and summon to the field °1
most patriotic services, if we wish to preserve for ourselfo
and our posterity the blessings of cultivated, societpatid,to
protect that mild and equitable Government which giv !vs
all protection. AVell are the directors of these nrachitlati:ce
aware that it behoves them, in the foremost place, to rell'-trr
the impediment of Faith ; inasmuch as Faith is the prorlo
and the protector of duties incompatible with sedition• of
derision of the Scriptures, and the consequent dissolutOn.ria
religious principles, is the best preparation which the de
ed
can possibly receive for breaking every bond of establisk
Government ; because such a dissolution clears away ota9ci '
every moral check, and bars the heart against ail comPur'-t

Of

'fur committ4 evil. Political anarchy, therefore, is the ready
and fast-growing fruit of religious infidelity; and it is quite
Ovarian:, that it is the sole and settled purpose of these
" architects of Ruin," (to use the strongfigurative language
Of Mr. Butke),.who have lately poured out upon the cOuntly
their swarms of blasphemous pamphlets, and still continue,
with an indnstry that never flags, to give them wings of
circulation—it is quite clear to us, that their sole and
settled purpose is to tear up, under the colour of
0 Constitutional Reform, the rery stamina of our esta-
blihments both in Church and State—to infuse their poi-
sonous juices, into the issues of life—to subvert without
alarritig4—aud to hide their exterminating weapon until the
.scrtson, which they. eagerly look for, should arrive, when
they may apply it with a full, unfettered elfact. In regard
to the putrid and loathsome masses of blasphemy adverted
to, 'We have seen them in the fulness of their deformity ; and
knbwing the malignity of their operation, and aPpre-
lonsi ye also.nf the fatal result which may ensue, We earnestly
an,l anxiously exhort every upright Citizen, and every since' e
Christian, to resist, su far as in him lies, these plunges of me-
ditated convulsion—to dam up the outlets of treasonable dis-
affection, and to discountenace, with all his heartould soul,
and strength, the Stygian doctrines blown abroad in every di-
rection by the‘foul Spirits of turbulence, democracy, rebellion,

and impiety—and so, under the Providence of Heaven, shall the
ark which holds the Constitution of his Country be best pre-
served from the ruinous innovations of the Demagogue,' and his
ILly Faith remain untainted by the envenomed breath of him
'• who sitteth in the seat of the Scorner."
