• so: the Lis:, published by the Royal Culiege of Laden

On SAturday last, n body of infantry arrived at
the place called Whitehaven Castle, and on Sun-
day a body of horse, altogether a military force of
one hundred men, lodged on Lord Lonsdale's pre-
mises, and fed at his expense. A good deal of
notice was taken in the Examiner of the gross
outrage committed by a body of these same col-
liers, who made an attack upon the inn where a
body of gentlemen had met (Mr. Blamire, one of
the county members, being one) to celebrate the
King's birth-day, some three months ago—then
not a magistrate would, or what is the same thing,
did act. Now, without any cause fur it, with
nothing done, and nothing to be apprehended, as
1 believe —they are all bustle and activity. Their
conduct now and three months ago, appear in
strong and beautiful contrast. The military have ,
been sent for—this act, I suppose, upon due repre-
sentation from a certain quarter—and they bevel
sworn in a body of special constables.
Very praiseworthy activity—if there was a cause'
for it—and which, doubtless, will insure them an I
eulogium from that belauder of all things, past,
present, and to come, Baron Brougham and Vaux.
What has all this been done for ? I leave those'
to answer who owe their appointment, as magis-
trates, to Lord Lonsdale ; and in their private ca-
pacities, hold offices, civil, clerical, and military,
through his means. Seeing their shameless supine- I
ness three months ago, whatopinion is to be formed
of their conduct, now coupled with the facts that,
excepting some bickering amongst themselves,
which, at any other time, if brought before the
magistrates, might have caused them to be fined a
shillihg, for dirtying straw in the round house, as
*be worthy clerk of the petty session court phrases
it—that the conduct of the pitmen has been symp-
tomatic of no disorder or violence--that they are
divided amongst themselves in nearly equal par-
ties—that, altogether, they form a body of seven
hundred only, in a population of 17 or 18,000,
and live apart from the town ? When a man is
supine when violence is actually done ; and at
another time, when but the bare apprehension ex-
ists, he is all activity and bustle—it is too harsh to
say of him, that his motives are to be suspected ?
Here there has been no riot—as far as from obser-1
ration I can form an opinion, the apprehension of
one seems to me groundless—why, then, have the
military been sent fur ? To restrain violence ?
There has been none ! My opinion is this : the
military, by their presence, will overawe the men
into acceptance of the terms of their employer—
although it is said they are brought to protect
the employer from the violence of the men. I ask
what power is to protect the men from the tyranny
of the master ?—Letter in the Examiner.
