. DOVER, OCTOIMR 19.

- -
The accommodation afforded by the Silk • Act permitting crape,
puse millinery, &c. to be imported into tbli port in pearls of 60
tons, is now availed of by dealers in fancy articles to a considerable
extent ; and it is only lamented that the tonnage is not fixed lower,
as 'some of our steam vessels, though really above 60 tons, yet from
the mode of measurement, deducting the engines, are not allowed
to bring silks. The last few weeks, however, have witnessed the
arrival of numerous French and English merchant vessels from
Calais, laden with silks and other ornamental and fancy articles;
the London tradesmen being of opinion that the dispatch afforde
it the Custom House here, and the facility of forwarding the goods
by vans from hence, generally on the day of arrival, answer their
purpose much better than the circuitous passage by water from
Calais to London, which must always in the winter season be pre-
carious, and never is so expeditious as that through this port.

ROYTON, 2414111 OLDHAM, Ocr. IS.

Thc differences which for many weeks past have pre-
vailed, between the master spinners and the men, at the
bottom of Greenacres Moor, and Oldham, are likely to
be amicably arranged. It is_high time that the dispute
should some way or other have a termination. On
Satut day evening last, the turned-out men assembled
about the house of Mr. Robert Graves, the brother of
Mr. Graves, whose spinners are turned•ont, and broke
nearly all the windows in hiihouse. Oa Sunday morn-
ing they (the turn•outs) came in contact with some tithe
new hands, whom they beat in a vet y unmerciful manner.
On Sunday night, they again fell in with two unfortunate
" Knnbsticks" in Oldham, whom they likewise beat very
ill. On Monday morning they pursued several of these
persons from the bottom of Greenacres-moor, through
Roy ton on the Rochdale road, for the purpose of d,,ing
some personal violence to them. They were fortunately
restrained from their purpose by the judicious advice of
a person who resides near Royton. Mr. Holme, of
Hollingwood, the Magistrate, has, unsolicited by any
party, been to the place, and recommended an accom-
modation of the differences.

A Meetiag is to be held this day, by the Masters, at
which a deputation from the men will attend ; the ob.
jest of this meeting is to endeavour to bring about a
reconciliation of the differences. This is much desired in
the present state of things. Messrs. Collinge and Lan-
cashire have still their factories guarded by a consi-
derable number of soldiers.

TALMA.

Great importance is attached to the reiterated calls of
the Archbishop of Paris at the house of Talma, for the
purpose of having an interview with that celebrated
tragedian. The Paris journals have made it generally
known that this respectable Prelate has frequently called
'without having obtained admission. The relatives and
friends who surround Telma have resisted as yet every
solicitation. We are not to conclude that a want of,
religious feelings has made Talma act in the manner he
has done. His conduct can be explained in a manner
still more natural. Talma was born in the Catholic re-
ligion, but being excluded from the communion of the
fa' hful on account of his profession, which conferred
on him such honour, he educated in the Reformed Rs.
ligion those dear to him, and who owed to him their
eicistence. He has frequently declared that he wished
to embrace Protestantism, and this declaration he made
with renewed force at Luraat where he was at the time
when he learned the dtp le scenes to which the fu-
neral of the.-ncior Philippe, who died suddenly at Paris,
bad given rose. Perhaps the Archbishop of Paris was
ignorant of all these circumstances, when, on Sunday
evening, at eight, he called in company with one of his
Grand Vicars, and insisted more earnestly than ever to
be admitted. It was thought proper, bowel/cr., to resist
his wishes. . . . .

Baker's insanity. After hearing them, the Jury delibe-

that he became a lunatic on the 18th of list December
—and that he has never had a lucid intasaai since that

having fraudulently obtained from the steward of the
Earl of Gleng..ll, the sum of Ss. 9d. for a sham parcel,
representing himself to be one of the porters employed
at the Saracen's-head Inn, and that the Ss. 9d. was for'
the carriage and porterage of the said parcel. The
prisoner also stood indicted for obtaining a like sum
under similar pretensions from the butler of Lord Clifton,
and in another count, he was charged with attempting
to defraud his Lordship's butler of 2i. which attemft is

The particulars of this case must be fresh in the recollection of
our readers.

The prisoner pleaded—Not Guilty.
The case for the prosecution being cicsed, and the prisoner called
upon for his tiefenc, he said that be had been the dupe of a man
`named Sullivan, who had employed him to carry the parcels, for
which he was to pay him. However, he called no proof, and
The CHAIRMAN slimmed up very clearly, and the Jury, without
a moment's deliberation, found the prisoner Guilty.
The COORS sentenced him to transportation for seven years.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.

Sir T. LETHBRIDGE presented a Petition front James
Frampton, agent to Mr. Jarrard,.the Member returned for the
boVisugh of Ham, is Yorkshire, pruying for an extension of one
day, for entering Into the rucogniaances,ottlording to the Act regu-
lating Election Petitions. The Hon. Basonet stated. that 14 days
were allowed by law for entering into the required recognisantes ;
but the Petitioner having miscalculated Sunday in the fortnight,
prayed that. the House would change the date from the 18th to
the 19th.

Petitioner being called to the bar, and interrogated u to the
correctness of the allegations contained in the Petition, the date
was enlarged from the 18th to the 18th.
Mi. CALVERT presented a Petition from Thomas Smith, of
the Ship Inn, Tottenham, praying for an alteration in the Act regu-
lating the licensing of alehouses.
Mr. C. PA LLMER presented a Petition from John Holman
Ridge, Army Agent, complaining of certain money transactions
with the Marquis of Hastings, and praying that the House would
institute an inquiry into his cue, and if requisite that the Marquis
should be recalled from the Governorship of Malta, in order that
certain money transactions, in which the Petitioner was concerned
might be adjusted.
Mr. Secretary CANNING thought the prayer of the Petition
ought not to be entertained, inasmuch as the Marquis of Hastings
was not at present in a situation to answer the allegations.
After a few remarks from Mr. Paws= and Mr. WYNN, the
Petition was laid on the table. _ _

A Message from the Lords acquainted the House that their
Lordships had agreed the Exchequer Ws' BM, the Corn Importa-
tion Indemnity, and other Bills.
Mr. J. WILLIAMS gave notice of a motion, after the holi-
days, relative to the business done in the Court of Chancery.
Mr. Secretary CANNING, in reply to a question put to him,
said, it was intended that Parliament should re-assemble, after the
on the 9th of February.

ACCIDENT IN THE BOROUGH.

FURTHER PARTICULARS.
Monday evening, about half-past eight o'clock, the
neighbourhood of Blackman-street, Sruthwark, was the
scene of considerable alarm, in consequence of the fall-
ing of two houses ip the occupation of respectable
tradesmen. It appeared that the house of Mr. Phillips,
a grOcer, No. 101, in the above street, received serious
injury about a fortnight back, by the breaking out of a
fire in the bottom part of the premises, that destroyed 'a
quantity, of wood work. The damage, however, was
not considered so serious as to cause any apprehensions
for the safety of the house ; and workmen had been'
actually engaged for some days past in repairing and
strengthening the parts that had sustained most injury
from the fire: On the evening in question, however,
while Mr. Phillips's family were sitting in their parlour,
at the extremity of the shop, they were alarmed by the
sadden smash of several panes of glass in the window.
This was the first intimation they had of danger. Mr.
Phillips, suspecting that the foundation of the house
was about giving way, immediately collected the whole
f his family, shopmen, and servants, and made them
instantly quit the premises. They had scarcely time to
do so, and take refuge in a house opposite, when Mr.
Phillips's house, together with the one next door, occu-
p.e..l by Mr. Bacon, a retail grocer, fell in with a tre-
mendous crash. Both the roofs giving way at the same
m',ment, carried the whole of tho materials, furniture,
and all from the upper stories down into the shops.—
Most providentially Mr. Bacon's family had also a pre-
sentiment of • what was•going to happen, and bad only
withdrawn themselves about two minutes from their
residence before it was a heap of ruins. A great part
of the fronts of the two houses fell into the street, but
most miraculously no person was injured, although, it
is'one of the most populous as well as one of thegreat-
est thoroughfares in Southwark. There were several
hair-breadth escapes of individuals passing along
when the crash took.place. The houses on each side
those that ha•e fallen, occupied by Mr. Harding, the
gun-maker, and Mr. M‘Master, the saddler, are consi-
dered in luch danger that
.the families have quitted
them in the event of accident.

RIOTS IN LANCASIIIRE.

Mautinares, STIIIIAT MORNING EIGHT &CLOT; MAT 7.
We ate perfectly quiet here. Yesterday and last night having
passed over tranqullly. At Huhu, the commercial embaramments
of a large house will throw many hundreds of persons out of em.
pleyment, but I hope man to see the spindle and the shuttle as
active as ever. There is already a subscription at Hulme, ands hope
that every !king will be done for those who are out of work. His
MAIIOTT the Kw, Goo bless him, has generously set the ezinaple,
which I doubt not will be followed ►y his faithful subjects. The
tub-Committee of Management of the fund for relieving the poor
in this town and neighbourhood, has published ■ new address, an-
nouncing what has been done, and is doing In London for our relief.

FROM TUB ',RUMOR CHRONICLE OF SATURDAY.
We have the satisfaction to say, that in this town everything has
remained perfectly quiet. On Monday, indeed, the town was
thrown into some alarm from the drums beating to arms, but it
turned out to have been occasioned by a ludicrous mistake. A
pugilistic contest having taken place on the Moor. a great concourse
,cit people was assembled to witness the fight; the crowd was seen
from the upper story of one of the factories, and no doubt being
entertained but it was a muster of loom-brokers. the military
were ordered nut, and the drums had nearly gone their rounds,
before the mistake wa• discovered.

A troop or the ttd Dragoon Guards, and a detachment of the
731 Regiment of Foot, have taken up their quarters amongst us;
the factories are guarded at all points, and have been stored with
paving stones in the upper rooms so that no fear is entertained of
any attempt to break into them. The Civil 011iceta have this
week been vigilant in their endeavoers to secure the ring leaders in
the various districts where outrages have been committed, and
several parties of prisoners have passe,/ through this town for Lan-
cutter, escorted by the military. Up to Thursday evening thirty-
three prisoners' male and female, bad arrived at the Castle; and
nine others bad been brought to the Preston House of Correction,
but not fully committed.

FROM THE MANCRISTRIL COURIER.

We have this moment received expresses from Bury, Rochdale,
Oldham, Ashton-under-Line, Hyde and Denton, all of which
places have been particularly peaceable for the treater part of the
week, and still continue to be so.

Yesterday morning ieltollo/. was received in Rochdale for the
me of the poor, from the Committee appointed at the meeting in
London on 'Tuesday. The sum of .1100 has likewise been trans.
mined to Rochdale, as a donation from the Bishop of Chester.
Ever since Tuesday evening there has not bees any
disturbance in this town deserving to be called a riot.
The principal factories throughout the town and neigh-
bourhood indeed are so well defended, that any attempt
to attack them would infallibly end in the discomfiture,
if not the destruction of the assails:its. Within the last
few days there have been one or two turnouts.

COMM& Oases, FIELDAT NM:, 11 O'CLOCL
We have just received an express from-Edenfield, de•
tailing the result of the inquest held there before Mr.
Errand, upon the bodies of the persons killed at Chad
derton. The inquest, which commenced last Friday,
has been sitting almost every day since, and only ter-
minated at a late hour this evening. In the case of
James Whittaker, the jury found a verdict of Wilful
Murder against a rifleman unknown. In the cases. of
John Ash worth, John Bothwell, James Lord, and Rich.
ard Lund, they found a verdict of Justifiable Homicide;
and in the case of Mary Simpsdn, Accidental Death.

IRON TUE MANCHRSTSR GUARDIAN OF SATURDAY.
With a few trifling exceptions of annoyance to the
power-loom hands still at work, and of attempts by the
turn outs to induce the hands at other mills to imitate
their example. Thutsday passed over quietly.
Yesterday morning the turn out power-loom weavers,
their numbers apparently swelled by the addition of
some other persons, a4embled in the hollow to thelight
of Oxford-road New Di idle. They also offered some
annoyance, in the cfrure of the day, to the hinds who
continue at work in the Oxford-road Mill. They
were, however, dispersed by the police, and one or two
(females) taken into custody. Some little disturbance
of a similar kind took place at Messrs. Chadwick,
angg, and Co.'s new mill. With these minute excep-
tions, the town was perfectly tranquil.

THE CLAPHAM CHALYBEATE.

!ROM Till NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE TOR MAY.

Who ha ere been at Clapham, must needs know the Pond

That belongs to Sir Barnaby Sturch,
'Tis well stock'd with fish, and the Knight's rather fond

Of bobbing for tench and for perch ; •
When he draws up his line to decide if all's right,
Moist drops o'er bit pantaloons dribble,
Though seldom if ever beguird by a bite,
He now and then boasts of a nibble.
Vulgar mud, very like vulgar men, will encroach,

Unchecied by the spade and the rake,
In process of time it envelop'd the roach
_ _

In Sir Baruaby's Lilliput Lake;
Five workmen, well arm'd, and denuded of shoes,
Now fearlessly delv'd in the flood,
To steal unawates on the Empress of Ooze,

And cart off ber insolent mud.• • 1
The innocent natives were borne from the bog,
Eel, minnow, and toad felt the shov.:l,
And, lizard-like, left by the fugitive frog
In a clay-built extempore hovel.
The men work'd away with their hands and their feet,
And dvlv'd in a regular ring,
When, lo! as their task was almost complete,
They waken 'd a mineral spring.
Id We've found a Chalybeate, Sir," the men cried,
" We halt till we know what your wish is;'
" Keep it safe," quoth the Knight," till you finish'd, and then
Throw it back with the rest of the fishes."

FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE.
London, England, 1826-05-30

TH-E HOAX;
OR, TEST OF FASHION:

A WM-INDIAN INCIDENT.
IN Kingston, the pride of Jamaica's fair Lie,
Where Fortune is prone on her vot'ries to smile,
A Hoax was tried lately, a bet to decide,
(The parties agreed by such proof to abide),
Which one of the arts in the island supplied,
Was most to fine Taste and high Fashion allied?
Next day on a Dealer in deluge there came
In endless variety, items of Fame,
Both native and foreign, who saw with surprise
The produce of hoax in succession still rise;
The articles brought by their venders and makers,
An craftsntenineluding, and e'en undertakers,
For here of deep colour assuming the mien,
Four long-visaged mines in their sables were seen,
Intent on Mortality's victims to thrive,
And bury the Dealer or dead or alive!
The Dealer on battle inclining to border,
" Behold," one and all then exclained, " Sir, year Order'!"
While " Hence with your evils net goods," he cried out,
And scatter'd each portable item about.
" You too," to the mutes, " with your damnable faces,
Made up still as wanted, in Sorrow's grimaces,
The farce I to tragedy quickly shall turn,
if here in my mansion you longer sojourn!"
The conflux at last deemed it prudent to scamper,
*One man only left, with a well-furnished hamper;
" Ah ! ibis," said the Dealer, the contents unpacking,
" Is welcome unasked for !"—'twas Wriaaan's Jar lizAcari
AU doubt thus resoled, in the empire of Taste,
That WA Ramis fine Jer, so resplendent and chaste,
Is just in renown, it still reigns as the test
Uf Fashion, the bleeds throughout of the West-
