We are happy to state the accounts from the Mintifacturint
Districts are extremlely favourable, so far as regards tranquillity,
which the Manchester Journal says. is completely restored through-
out the whole of Lancashire. Trade is dull at Mabchester, but it
Is generally the Case on the eke of the races. Our Correspondent,
bummer, represses a hope that it will revive. Good Calicos were
selling on Thursday at 10s. the piece Of twenty-nine yards.
Mr. Hayes, a Manufacturer at Bollock's Smethy, near Mantises.
ter, who usually furnished employment to the hand loom weavers
in their own cottages, lately reduced his rate of payment from five
or tie shillings to three shillings the cut. The manufacture of one
of these tuts is one man's weekly work ; still, many of the poor
people were glad to labour even for this scanty payment, and they
took their materials home for that purpose. But so great was the
ferment occasioned by the diminution of price, that the rest of the
peratiOs oh the spilt deter Mined to resist the new rate apaymenti
and compelled the others to take the warps oheof their loomi, and
a etuni the materials to Mr. 114yei. There was no attempt made to
destroy or injure his property, though ilk the evening they resin-fed
'to the culpable yet harmless exhibition of tuirriing hint ill effigy
near his own door.

Many of the principal Proprietors of Factories are carrying old
their works at a loss, in order to keep their weavers together.

The Court Martial alluded to in the STAR of Tuesday was held
yesterday se'nnight, on board the BRITARNIA, to try John Pea, a
seaman belonging to the &mat frigate, an a charge of striking Mr.
CHARLES HOPKINS, Admiralty Alate, on board the DIADCM hulk, OH
the morning of the 25th of April last. The charge being fully
proved, lie was sentenced to suffer death at the yard-arm of such
ship as the Lords C • %loners of the Admiralty should direct;
but from the excellent character of the prisoner, which was given
by Lieut. Balm (First of the Mosul!) and other Officers It
that ship, there is rra.on to hope that mercy will be extended to
him. Immediately afterwards, Mr. Melon; was tried, I)4i.a charge
of striking the seaman, to.wkich he was induced by some irritaiing
behaviour on the part of Fox. The charge being proved, he was
severely reprimanded and admunislied.—Captain W. D. Kum,
President.
