such men as Wellington and Peel were even dtil+en to pretend to
do something. They nn liner insulted the people with the taunt
that every man in the land had it in his own power to
obtain a competence..—(Loud cheers.) It was satisfactory
that at last the prevalence of deep distress was acknow.

denied that the Corn.laws had an) thing to do with it, proposed
an alteration of those laws, if not as a remedy, at least as a pallia.

a market for their labour, and accordingly they asked, why were
those unconstitutional laws to be continued ?—(Hear, hear.) He
called them unconstitutional, because they were not intended for
any purpose for which the Legislature was constituted. They
were not found to extend the resources of the empire, but to main.
tain the predominance of one class, to take money out of the
pockets of the people to enrich a few who held the laud. The
monopolists asserted that all this was mere theory ; but the people
found out that it was all practice.—(Cries of " Hear, hear.")
They said that they were not theorists, but practical men.

flesh of a pig which was roasted in a burning house,

" Sir,—Referring to my communication of the 18th
of June, I have now the honour to transmit you the
following translation of an ordonnance issued at
Stockholm on the 4th of October :
" 'The Royal Navy Board hereby makes known,
for the guidance and information of mariners,
that as the contemplated Lentille Light at
Falsterho cannot be raised this year, but the
re-erection of the Tower is now completed, the
former open Coal Light, placed at the same height as
hitherto, will
.be exhibited during the dark season, or,
from the commencement of the month of October in
the present, until the middle of the month of April in
the ensuing year—instead of the Provisional Light,
which has been exhibited during the summer ; after
which the illumination, by means of a large lanthorn,
will be maintained, until such time as the Lentille
Light can be erected.'—l am, &c.,

that a considerable reduction will zhortly be made in

This is an additional proof that the Austrian Govern-

hitherto in force, to adopt a system of protecting

GREENRITHE PIER.

On Monday last the retired and beautiful village of
Greenhithe assumed a most animated scene, upon
the occasion of the opening of this Pier. On the
arrival of the first steam-boat at the Pier, which con-
veyed several of the Directors and Shareholders of
the Pier Company, they were received by a numerous
assemblage of their friends. A salute of cannon, and
the National Anthem of " Ged Save the Queen," per-
formed by a well-regulated band, also welcomed them.
The Pier being open to the public throughout the
day free of any charge, a vast number of the inhabi-
tants of the neighbourhood availed themselves of the

THE COUNTY EGISTRATION.--The result of the
late registration is all that the Reformers could wish.
Objections have been made so successfully in almost
every part of the southern division, that were an
election to take place on the present list, there is little

would be defeated. The Tories are not so strong as
at the last election, when compared now with the
Liberals, by some 850 votes.—Liverpool Mercury.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BO VV-STREET.-(T HIS DAY.)

A respectable-looking lad, named Chartes Short,
was charged with stealing several proof sheets of a
new work, which is in course of being printed at the
Beaufort Printing-house, Strand. •
Henry Guoyn, the overseer to Mr. Whiting, the
proprietor of the establishment, stated that the pri-
soner was an apprentice in the house. On Wednes-
day evening several proof sheets of a new work were
found in a cupboard which was used by the prisoner.
There happened to be a rival work in the market, and
it was, therefore, ' a great object in each printing-
office to keep the progress of the work through
the press as secret as possible. Great inducement
was held out to printers' boys in publishing
offices, to steal these sheets, whiCh they sold to other
publishers, who by this means produced a similar
work before the publisher who had purchased the
original copy could get it out. Mr. Whiting, the
proprietor of the Beaufort printing-house, instituted
the charge, to show to the Various publishing houses
with which he was connected, that he did all in his
power to keep the work secret. They had lost a
great number lately, and several being found in the
prisoner's cupboard, he,;was given into custody.
The prisoner reserved his defence to a future day,
and Mr. Twyford remanded him till next week.

has just broken up, and everybody is in expectation
of something, but they scarcely know what. Few,
if any, of tha shops are closed ; and though all work
seems at a stand-still, it does not appear that the
hands have been turned out by force or intimidation,
but of their own free-will have abstained, thinking it
safer to wait till the commotion is over.

The Magistrates are busily engaged swearing in
additional special constables at the Court-house, in
front of which a body of soldiers are stationed.
There were reports yesterday that a large body of
Lancashire men were encamped in the suburbs, but
the story seems to have been without fomidation.
The Lancashire lads" are not expected till to-
morrow.

BOLTON.

SATURDAY, Font, P.M.--Yesterday evening the
Bolton Cavalry, under the command (in the absence
from England of Captain Langshaw) of Lieut. John
Fletcher, were called out and drawn up in front of
the , police-office; in which building were placed the
company, now lying here, of the- 72d Highlanders.
The men of both troops were kept under arms the
whole of the night, ready to be called out at a mo-
ment's warning. In consequence of a meeting having
been. announced to be held last night in the market-
place, great crowds of persons congregated together;
the police attempted to disperse them, but their force
was inefficient ; the Highlanders were called out, and
1 the mob were dispersed. Several skirmishes took
place, and stones were thrown, but nothing more ma-
terial than one of the soldiers and one or two of the
• police slightly wounded occurred.
'During the night all was quiet and orderly, and up
to noon to-day there appeared no indication of a dis-
'turbance:' A vague report had been afloat that several
thousand men, armed with bludgeons,. &c., were to,
enter the town this morning ; but not the least cre-
deiice• was given to rumour. - How=ever;.at twelve
o'clock the report was found to be too well grounded ;
• for the' town was, shaken from its_ "propriety:' by a
irio , consisting of at least 5,000 person, armed with
b
bludgeons, staves, bars of iron, or anything else Wei.

lated to knock a man's brairm out, entering the town,
nourishing their weapons, and giving loud huzzas.
The snob proceeded up Deansgate, Market-street,
and through the market, to' Hargreave's and other
mills, Which they immediately Stopped. and.-also
Hick's and other foundries ; and on ti-wir return
again, passed through the Market-place and into
Little Bolton, where they visited the different mills.
No molestation during tisis time was done. Several
melaibers of the mob entered different shops and asked
for bread, which was given them ; in some instances
they demanded money: from persons of respectable ap-
pearance in the street, and their demand was com-
plied with. The mob presented a most formidable
appearance, and the weapons they carried were of a
/mist deadly de4eription. The language used by them
on many occasions was exceedingly violent, levelled
principally against the police, which body of men they
sweife. they would murder before they left the town.
On their return from the mills very many of the mob
were drunk, from the effects of liquor which they had
either begged or demanded. On one occasion one of
the mob addressing himself to a persoli who :vas look-
ing on, said, "My man; can you tell us where to
get a. quart of moil ale, and we will pay ,for it." The
rqd.‘" was, " nen, there's a beer-shop near to, but I
tlink it's closed in." ' Closed be d—d," was tile
re ply ; " If they'll let us have it, we'll pay them;, but
if
.thcy refuse, by G—d we'll take it, and much as
we, hie; that's what we're come for—meat and drink
--kw we arc well nigh clammed (hungered)." 117 p to
thit,present. hour no outbreak has taken place. The
Highlanders and cavalry are under arms, and sta.-
tissue,' before the police-office. The appearance of
ai fairs now. assumes a threatening aspect. The market
is completely deserted, and the shops thoughout the
tc.,ven are closed in. Business, is at a complete stand.
The Riot Act has been again read. The Magis-
tr ab s.lr.i.ve very judiciously made arrangements for
the town to be lighted to-night. Where the matter
will end no idea can be formed ; but from the menac-
ing bearing of the mob, a riot which most likely will
be- attended with bloodshed, will take place.
The rioters are principally from Bury. Heywood,
ndington, and surrounding neighbourhood.

THEATRICAL.

The Opera season tertnii7ateciOn Saturday nizht,
with the cast of Otello as on Thursday. The Na-
tional Anthem was sung, and the curtain descended
on Cerito's Alma, in which she was unanimously
solicited to repeat her brilliant revolving step in her
own beautiful pas de trois. Mr. Lumley has shown
much tact and spirit in the management of this season,
and warrants fair expectation for the season of 1843.

LITERARY AND SCIENTIFIC.
M. Tsearing, of Munich has, according to German
accounts, prodiked a most unexpected addition to the

WEST BROMWICH.

_
MONDAY.—The colliers .in this immediate district
have evinced considerable restlessness ever since the
news from Lancashire has been communicated to
them. Joined to this, the resolution of the masters,
who assembled at Dudley, on Saturday, has given
them great dissatisfaction ; and while some are dis-
posed to view the strike"as useless, and are anxious to
return to work on any conditions, others are resolved
to brave it out, and to force their fellows to continued
acquiescence.
Ills morning (Monday) a meeting of the colliers,
nailors, and forgemen, was held at Holly-hall, near
Dudley. The number present was at least 10,000;
and they were addressed by the usual speakers. in
harangues of a most inflammatory nature. Whether
their determination was assumed or hearty, they
appeared equally unanimous in their resolutions not
to yield in one particular to the employers.
During the last day or two there have been rumours
of projected violence, and some apprehension has
been entertained for the safety of the Staffordshire
Gas Works ; hut there is reason to believe that so
long as O'Neill is at the head of the " turn- outs" no
violence need be anticipated.

The Deputy-Chairman of the Markets Committee
for the City appeared at the Mansion-house on Satur-
day, to confer with the sitting Magistrate on the sub-
ject,. of Bartholomew Fair. It was then stated that
the Lord Mayor evinced the greatest anxiety that the
abolition of the fair should take place during his
Mayoralty : his Lordship will. open the approaching
fair privately, and the public will be given to under-
stand that the Magistrates sanction it only for mer-
cantile purposes. The proclamation not taking place
till the afternoon of the.eve of St. Bartholomew, in-
stead of half-past twelve o'clock on the preceding
night, will have the effect of abolishing the " custom'
of "Lady Holland's Mob," and dissipate their irregu-
lar orgies.

DUDLEY.

MONDAY EVENING.—A report was general in Bir-
mingham this morning that a great meeting was
to be held in Dudley this day, and that it was the de-
termination of the Magistrates to apprehend O'Neill
and other Chartist leaders, who are unquestionably
the great obstacles to an amicable arrangement be-
tween the master colliers and their men. The ru-
mour led to a general muster of the colliers, and as
the place of meeting fixed upon (Russell-green) was
much more central than Swan-village, West Brom-
wich, the attendance was very numerous. There
were not less than from 8,000 to 10,000 persons pre-
sent. At West Bromwich, although for some weeks
past it has been the focus of discontent, there had
been few: acts of violence, and not more than
about 200 of the working population of that neigh-
bourhood had marched for the meeting at Dudley.
The works at the various pits in the vicinity were,
however, generally closed; and this morning several
of the proprietors had drawn their horses, which had
hitherto been at work, up the shafts of their colliery
establishMents. This looks like a determination to
resist the demand of the men. Both men and mas-
ters are determined.

At Dudley the authorities are upon the alert, and
every necessary precaution had been taken to pre-
serve the public peace. The Vicar, 111 r. T. Badger,
Captain Bennett, and Mr.. Cartwright, were. in at-
tendance at the Dudley Arms, and a detachment of
the 3d Dragoons, assisted by the Worcestershire

COMMERCIAL REFORM.

Immediately after Sir Robert Peel's Corn Bill had become known
at Wigan, a memorial, petition, and protest against it, collected
4,000 signatures in less than twenty-four hours. At Stalybridge,
a day and a halt brought 3,600 signatures. At Derby 6,336 names
were appended in eleven hours.

At a great meeting held at the Town-hall, Salf.rd, on Tuesday
last, an amendment was carried, which was afterwards ordered to
take the place of a substantive motion, whereby the meeting avowed
their " solemn determination never again to pass or to retain for
twenty-four hours, without exchanging for gold, any Bank of Eng-
land notes, until by the total and immediate repeal of the Corn-laws
Government showed its readiness to redress the people's grievances."

BETHNAL-GREEN.-At a meeting of the Beth-
nalgreen Anti-Corn.law Association, held 011.11Unday evening, at
the White Hart, Bethnal-green-road, after a warm discussion on
Sir R. Peel's plan, it was moved by Mr. J. Duce, and seconded by
Mr. Withrington:—" That this Association, after mature delibe-
ration upon Sir R. Peel's measure, do request every lliember of the
House of Commons, who is a real advocate for a repeal of the Corn-
laws, to oppose every estimate, in consequence of there being no
measure introduced to relieve the distresses of the people, who are
no longer able to bear the burden of the taxes."—Carried unani-
mously. A petition was then signed by the Committee for a total
repeal of the Corn.laws, to be presented by Colonel Fox, and that
Sir W. Clay be requested to support the prayer of the petition. The
Committee then adjourned to next Monday evening at eight o'clock.
