MANCHESTER TIMES, APRIL 30.
ASHTON AND STALTDRIDGIL—Trade is now gradually reviving
here again, though a considerable number of the poorer class are far
from having recovered from the erects of the turn-out. The spin.
nee, as well as the other branches of the cotton trade, are now all
working full time. A considerable number of the spinners, who have
'ordered themselves obnoxious to the masters through the turn-out,
edit continue out of employment, and are, generally speaking, in a very
deplorable state. About twenty of them are gone to America, to try to
batter their fortune there, and there that hail the means, have taken
their families with them. Six of the most distressed, have ,Bad their
expences defrayed out of the spinners' union.
ROCHDALE.—Trade is still in a &torment and ruir.ons decline in
the flannel manufactures of this town and neiehhourhood; the quern.
tity at work given out to the weavers is weekly decreasing, and wager
declining ; the poor weavers ate in a very destitute state. Some of the
manufacturers arc only employing their hands half time ; others tire
resorting to the more di:honourable practice of further reductions in
the wages of their worlanen, whose privations are already most de.
Suable. The numerous small manufacturers will shortly be driven
hum the market, by the silent but progressive advance in the 'pinning
and manufacturing by power.
On Wednesday morning, about half-past six o'clocl:, three poor men,
maid Thomas Mansell, James Jackson, and James Partingtun, were
eidewsly injured by the fire damp at Alkrington colliery, near Middle-
ton. Mansell died about twelve o'clock the mime day.
DISSOLUTION 07 PAALTAMENTAfter the arrival of the intel-
ligence of the dissolution of parliament, and victories obtained by the
brave Polish nation over the Russians, a number of persons formed
themselves into a proceseion, and, headed by a band of music, pro-
eluded through the principal streets, playing ' OOD save the King,' and
ether patriotic tunes, and cheered when opposite the newspaper offices
which advocated the cause of reform. About twelve flags were also
exhibited, on which were various mottos and devices. On one was
6 The King, God bless him ;" on another ' Success to the Poles,' &c.
When opposite the Voice offs, and just when they were about to
separate, the police interfered, and shortly after the immense crowd this-
passed to their several homes.
MALLS IT THE Rahway.—One or two alterations have lately
WWII place in the mails sent to and from Liverpool by the railway.
The soma Liverpool mail now leaves Liverpool an hour later than
formerly, namely, at 40 minutes past one, instead of 40 minutes past
twelve. A third mall has been added which leaves Liverpool at five
o'clock, and reaches Manchester post office at about a (plater to seven
P.X. The departures' of the first and second bags for Liverpool re.
maim as before ; but a third bag now leaves Manchester post office at
ass minutes to five P.n.
The recant escape from justice of the acting overseer of Wardleworth,
for the starvation to death of the unfortunate pauper victim, who for a
trivial accident occasioned by his infirmities, (without any magisterial
order) was incarcerated in the town's prison, on scold floor, in an incle-
ment season, without a particle of fuel or bedding, for the space of 15
days, where he was so famished for want of food, as to cause him to eat
his own excrement, and the two last days proved to have been without
any human sustenance, is still fresh in the minds of the inhabitants,
who are surprised to see an inhuman and equally guilty wretch still re.
tattled in his situation of keeper of the prison, who could withhold
that sustenance (no matter by whose orders) which is nut denied to the
worst felon or murderer, and that too, on the alleged mandate of the
petty tyrant (who had placed the unfortunate sufferer there in defiance
of the laws o the land) thus to torture an innocent, unoffentling, aid
harmless fellow-creature, (.uffering much from bodily afflictions) by a
most cruel and agonising death. Justice may be withheld here, yet a
most awful responsibility rests with those who do not prevent the guilty
from escaping, when the strict performance of their duty requires it at
their hand.
Flax. ..On Thursday 'morning last. about four o'clock, a very alarm.
in fire was discovered in Mr. Proctor's factory. Cheetham-street, Roch-
dale, which is supposed to &tee originated in the machine shop. Very
considerable during: was eustained.
Ltvea root., AvaiL 25.—Tuesdey's market was well attended, and
fine Wbcnts were sold at psis I rather exceeding their previous cur-
rency ; the quantity of this description on the market is small. The
principal transactions during the week were several large parcels of
Odessa Wheat sold at 814. 10th. to 2s. 2d., and a few inferior Itieh mils.
'to Bs. 6d. The scarcity of fine Wheat is well supplied with American
Flour, for which there has been rather more inquiry, but without any
advance in prices. Middling parcels of Oats are offered fully Id. per
ealbs. lower, but fine qualities command our previous quotations, and
the best melding 4s. Malting Barley is scarce, and prices are sup.
ported, but there is very little inquiry for feeding qualities, though
offered on lower terms. Beans and Peas are each Is per quarter
cheaper. Nothing material passing in Indian Corn.
