MANCHESTER, SEPTEMBER 24.

It was reported this afternoon, that in consequence
of the large reward offered (200 gui•.aas) the Police
had obtained information of the persons who insti-
gated the late attack on Messrs. GnAv's Factory, and
that three were in consequence apprehended. On in-
quiry, however, I cannot learn that there is any truth
in this statement—further than that several ether

arrests have taken place of persons connected with
the recent disturbances.

Every thing still remains tranquil here ; but at
Bury, Bolton, Preston, Burnley, and the other neigh-
bouring towns and villages, much dissatisfaction pre-
vails (though-not expressed by any open acts oftvio--
lence), on account of the vast number of Weavers,'
sw still out of employ--nor is the eitstatioisoef &Gee
who are employed such Us to make us feel secure
from alarm. They cannot, I learn, with the addition
that has been made to their wages, earn more thin
.from eight to ten shillings per week ; and to add to
their distress, fuel, and all articles of domestic con-
sumption, are advancing' in price.,-•l3tcad is about

Another detsiehment of the 95th Regiment arrived
here this afternoon ; and it is generally onderstniid•
that both the 'regular and temporary Barracks here
will be ocdupied by-strong bodies of troops 'daring
the ensuing winter.—This very necessary and un-
avoidable measurit of precaution cannot fail to en-
hance a little the price of provisions.
Bagguly, Drummond, and Johnson, still remain in=
carcerated in Chester Castle. being unable to procure
the bail required of them.

Saturday evening, Ayres the Constable of Cha-
tham, assistitel by Wood, a aotlicr officer appfebt.nded,
a young man at Leeds, of the name cif Boulden, on'
a charge of bring concerned in forging and uttering '
Bank notes in Vearwieksire.
Last night an extensive.robbny was Committer! at
Mrs. Kendall's, the Mitre, in Chancery-lane. Scale
thieves contriveato grin access by a ci ote-bar, which
they have left bei.ind them, into a room up stairs,
and stole from her, in Bank of England notes, 105/.
.twenty guineas in gold, her watch, and all her shyer
spoons and sundry other articles, which the robbort'
got clear off with. It is strongly suspected that this
ilteft has been committed by no stranger to the place,
and what makes it distressing is, that Mrs. Kendall,
is considerably.

whole of the property that she was possessed of.
A Printer of Ghent, the Sieur BUSCIIER, has been

DUEL PazvEnTen.—lnformation having been re•
ceived that a duel was to have taken place yesterday
on Wormwood Scrubs, between two Gentlemen on
the Staff, Mr. M—N—o and Mr. G—o—N, they had
scarcely arrived at the spot when two Constables ap-
peared, rather too hastily, as no breach of the peace
had been committed ; and as there was no one pre-
sent to identify the parties, nor any appearance of
fire-arms, they departed without being interfered with.
SINGULAR DISCOVERY.—Tuesday last Mr. MARK-
LAND, the Magistrate of Queen-square Police Office,
was requested by a Gentleman to attend an officer's
widow, residing at Bethnal Green, at any convenient
time, for the purpose of administering an oath, and !
signing an affidavit, authorizing her to receive her!
husband's pension, the Lady being bed-ridden and
unable to attend herself. Mr. MARRLAND accor-
dingly repaired to the Lady's dwelling on Thursday
morning last, and after performing his necessary
duties, in the course of conversation, from various
circumstances, discovered that she was his aunt, and
instead of being.* Captand; widow, she was the wi-
dow of all Adalital.
