committed in the wide circuit over which ihis rising
extended.

" A great many lemons, out of the disturbed vil-
lages, have absconded, in consequenCe or the part
they have taken in these proceedings, and the extern
of the mischief to the distressed families of these in-
fatuated men,is incalculable. The per.ons already
apprehended, will be committed to York Castle ; but
the Magistrates wait a reply from Government be-
fore they decide whether to make out the committals
fir High Treason, or simply for a misdemeanour.
" The arms hitherto captured by the military:
amount only to three pike-heads, a few side-arms;
and fire-arms, and several pike-handles, syith two at
three scythe-blades, fastened into shalt!.
" Since Friday night, there have been-no symp- •
toms of disturbance in the town or neighbourhood of
Huddersfield, with the exception of some exptession
of popular disfavour towards the Yeomanry, who
were assailed, on Thursday last, with loud hisses in
the street, in consequence of which the tow n, fbr
some time, wore an alarming appearance, but this ap-
pears to have been a mere. and-the public
peace was almost instantly restored.
" On Wednesday night last, at seven o'clock, the
Magistrates of Huddersfield, Joseph Llaigh, Benjamtn
Haigh Allen, and John Horsfall, convened a
Meeting of the Inhabitants; at the George Inn, inti-
mating that they had a communication to make to
them of considerable importance. At this Meting
about 100 of the principal inhabitants and trades-
people of the town assembled, and Mr. Haigh having
taken the Chair, lie p:oceeded to state—That the
town and neighbourhood of Huddersfield were in a
state so alarming as to call for the greatest vi` o Rance ,
on the part of the respectable inhabitants. It ap-
peared, he said, not from vague rumour, but front
depositions taken before the Magistrates, that a si-
multaneous rising was to take place throughout all
the manufacturing districts of the kingdom, extend-
ing even to Scotland, and that the signal for that
rising was to have been the capture of Hudders-
field, and the stoppage of the coaches. The Magis-
trates, he said, had certain information that there were
on Friday night last from 1,600 to 2,000 persons in
arms in the neighbourhood of Huddersfield, whose
-it was, to change, by force, the existing order
of society, and to rob and plunder the respectable
part of the community. A Delegate, whom they
well knew, had come over from Nottingham to that
place, cn the 30th ultimo, and had convened a
Meeting of Delegates, at which twenty were present.
On the Meeting being dissolved, these men were dis-
patched into various parts of the country, and each
of them had a ticket given to him, on which was
lwritten a significant word (which the Chairman
mentioned, but which it may perhaps net be ad-
visable to state in a Public Newspaper); and these
cards, when cut in two, were to form a sign and
counter-sign, by which the leaders were to be
known. from causes which could not at present
be explained, the wicked designs of the lawless bad
been hitherto frustrated, but there was no reason to
-suppose that their intentions had been altered.—
In this alarming state of things it became the duty
of the inhabitants to unite for the presei vation of their
laws, their persons, and their property, and this meet-
ing was called to obtain the sanction of the inhabitants
to an application to be made by the Magistrates to
the Lord Lieutenant, fur powers to bring in operation,
if necessary, the Watch and Ward Act in this district.
This was the substance of the communication, and it
is scarcely necessary to add, that th! Meeting in-
stantly gave them their sanction to the application to
the Lord Lieutenant. In the course of the commu-
nication the Chairman admitted, that he did not be-
lieve the Reformers, as a body, had anything to do
with the conspiracy, which had spread such very
general and well-founded alarm through the neigh-
bourhood. The conspirators were the mere dregs
of society."

The Paris Papers of Thursday and Friday,havie ar-
rived since our last. The pressure of our domestic
intelligence compels us to be brief in our lattice of
their contents. The general discussion on the Project
of Law respecting the Financial Accounts prior to
1819, was concluded on Thursday : it still remains
to discuss it article by article. The accounts from
Spain by the ordinary courier of' Thursday, << ere
mostly anticipated by . the extraordinary arrivals of
the preceding day, noticed in our last. The Consti-
tution was proclaimed at Bilboa, the Capital of Bis-
cay, on the 29th March. Tranquillity has been re-
established at Cadiz, and the balls and illuminations
have been almost continual since the .moment the
Constitution was proclaimed.—French Five per Cents.
