Reformers of Bolton having drawn die carriage the
whole way, twelve miles, notwithstanding the rain
fell in torrents. The public expression congratu-
lation as 1 passed through Manchester, was such as
might very naturally have been expected; the petty,
vindictive folly of the worthy quorum proved that
their malignant revenge was doomed to be of very
short duration. And the exhibiting me through, this
county fifty-four miles under a military escort, has
produced an effect exactly the reverse of that which
the impotent rage and folly of this ROMELED JUNTO
anticipated. I Mall not suffer the grass to grow an-
der my feet—l start with Mr. Passion tidier this
evening or early to-morrow morning for Lancaster,
that we may reach that town to beat the names oe

" Mr. PEARSON and Sir CHARLEIL WOLSELEY have
been indefatigable in procuring evidence and assist-
ing the wounded, &c. &c. I saw a list of one hun-
dred andffiy last evening who have received wounds,
and the majority of them from sharp, keen-adting
Utilities. I saw one man here with his shoulder-
blade cut in two ; another with the fleshy part of his
arm, just below the shoulder, with a wound seven
inches long, and cut so deep as,to injure the bane
materially, several splinters having been extracted.
One poor woman had her left breast taken clear off,
leaving her ribs bare. One man his nose off; one
with his ear cut off close to his head, which he ac-
tually picked up and carried home in his pocket !
have not the least doubt hut there are two hundred
persons, men, women, and children, who have received
various sabre wounds. I myself had a slight cut in
my hand ; and having received several chops upon
my hat, I have examined it this morning, andl2
there are two cuts quite through it—the swords must
have been as sharp as razors.

terday was too late for the-post; but Iy I wrote
from Bolton on Sunday, you must. •I trnstrhave been
relieved from all anxiety about my freedom again,
or, at least, about my having been releasitd from in-
carceration. When I wrote from Bolton I was sur-
rounded by vast numbers pressing to see and con-
gratulate me. I slept very comfortably at the -inn
in the Market-place ; but when I awakened at seven
o'clock, and looked oat of the window, the space was
filled by 10,000 persons, all as still as- death,*they
having been informed that I had gone to bed fa-
tigued, every one fearing to disturb me, waiting in
silent anxiety to hear how 'I was when I should get
up.—After breakfast we were visited by many re-
spectable Gentlemen of the town.' I called for the
bill, and ordereda chaise for Manchester; the-waiter
informed me that the bill was 'paid and the chaise
already provided. Multitudes, having colours in
their 2tats, mostly white, of Hunt and Liberty,'
would not suffer the horses to be put-in the carriage,
but actually drew ns all to Manchester, twelve
although it rained in torrents. Nothing could equal
the reteption I met with as they drew-me thrtiogh
the town, accompanied to this door by at least 40,000
people. Sir C. WoLseLev, who has not ceased one
minute in his best exertions, together with Mr. Pun•
son, accompanied by Mr. Jonsson, who came five .
miles to meet us, were also drawn in their gig by
the people.—Ever your's, • " a. !lour."

PRIVATE LETTER.
" CORDOVA, AUGUST
4, The Ferdinanditcs of this city are extremely
alarmed by the recent victory gained by Brigadier
Merino over the King's troops near La Puebla de los
Infantes. His forces consisted of little more than
200 infantry and GO horse, but those of the line ex-
ceeded 400 strong. The latter were, nevertheless,.
entirely defeated, and it has turned out that more
than 80 of the dispersed have joined jMerino.
should be very glad if you could 'read the beautiful'
Manifesto of ?Merino, of which he has caused more
than 1,0 X) copies to circulate in Andalusia and Es-
tramadura. It is a master-piece of eloquence, philo-
sophy, and patriotism. Don Felipe Sanchez, whose
talents and patriotic virtues are well known to you,
is the author, and he is, besides, the director of the
' Constitutional champion, Merino. By the first op-
portunity, I will send this Manifesto to you, which"
contains thirty pages, and powerfully exhibits the
reasons which heroic Spain has to rise up in insurrec-
tion, and govern herself without despots. It is said
Merino has letters in his possession from O'Donnel,
in which he promises to defend the cause of his coun-
try with his Expedition, and that for this reason the
' latter has been called up to Madrid, to give in an
account of the disarming of the troops at Victoria ;
adding, that Palafox, (who is still young, and has
some reputation in America,) is going to supersede
him at Cadiz, where, besides the discontent prevail-
, ing among the few troops left, the yellow fever awaits
him. All these circumstances make it probable that
this Expedition will not sail for America. It is said
that the Conaitution:tl division of Colonel Melchor
is about to unite with that of Brigadioe Merino; and
we are assured that the latter, although his division
is the smallest, will command the whole. The en-
thusiasm that reigns here among the country people
and the soldiers is very peat. All anxiously await
the arrival of Merinciand Melchor. A few fanatical
friars, old devotees, and a few ultraserviles in office,
alone curse the Constitution and the Liberates; the
rest all adore it, and in its behalf we will spend our
last fraction and blood.

Considering the small number of horses, the sport was very good.
This town hu been quite gay dming the last two Sr three
days, in consequence of the great influx of company, attracted
by the Races. Better sport was never seen, and such deter-
minedly fair hard running is seldom witnessed. So severely
were souse of the heats contested, that the umpire had great
difiladty in deciding which was the winning horse. There was
a numerous assemblage of beauty and fashion an the Racel-ground.
Among the Gentlemen whose equipages attracted the most at.
tention, were Sir LAirittliCt PAL[, Sir IiOUCHII/i WRAY, Mr.
SAVILLE, Mr. Futowes, and Mr. HAIM, each driving four-
in.hand, and each displaying much address in the use of hit
whip and management of his horse's.

MANSION-HOUSE.—Tye BANK Ki

Dunham the poJr maniac, was examined a second
time yesterday, upon the charge of stealing the Bank
keys. The officers brought from her apartment
another chest of keys,, which were most of them
ticketed. Amongst them were the keys of the Houses
of Lords and Commons, Carlton-house, and the
Treasury. But the most valuable, in her opinion,
were the keys of Lord Sidmouth's wine-cellars, and
of those of the Duke of York, which contained, ac-
cording to her estimate, as much wine as would, if
turned into bread, satisfy the cravings of a distressed
population. But justice was not, she said, Lobe had,
even where the bottle was most abundant. Many
other sentiments escaped in this uproar of her facul-
ties, which shewed something like method 'in her
gladness. The number of keys was about 3,000.
tiler son-in-law attended : be said she was a woman
of" good education, and had married to great advan-
- • e. About five years ago her husband died, and
rirt her a competency. She took a house, and had
lodgers, amongst whom was one man, who, by a se-
ries of villainies, deprived her of the means of live-
lihood for herself and children, three of whom are
now helpless, and almost unprotected. She endow.
vowed to recover by the law, bat she fell into the
hands of persons in that profession, who made her
opinion of men still worse. The excess and variety
of her misfortunes were greater than she could bear,
and her senses were lost amidst the accumulated
tai-
series by which she was' surrounded. A good-hu-
moured levity succeeded to the tears which used tol
flow at the prospect of her children's ruined expec
tations; and from that moment *she became possessed
of a sort ;of happiness which was only interrupted
by the schemes and terrors of a wild imagination.,
She frequented the Courts of Law, and upon one oc-1
casion locked the twelve Judges in the Exchequer
Chamber, where they were deliberating upon a goes.
don of life or death. This extraordinary act she peso•
formed for the purpose, she said, of " keeping jnisa
lice under lock and key," that the thousands who had
been looking for it in vain might find it at last, and
be supplied with it for nothing. , Soon after it occur-
red to her, that her own case demanded some of the
powerful interfetence of her learned prisoners; but
on going back, she found that even they had violated
the principles which they were bound to protect, by
breaking prison, and that they had left not an atom
of justice behind them, except their wigs! She had,
amongst other strange fancies,, supposed that every
place of which she obtained possession of the keys,
became from that moment her own property, and had
determined to leave them as an inheritance to her re-
latives: 'She was to be teen at all places of public
resort. Her powers of memory are great. A num-
ber of the keys were not ticketed. Upon glislz
at them, she mentioned from what particular
in houses she had Liken them, and at what time,
She war fond of getting hold of the keys of a Lady's
dressing-room or trunk, with the view of preventing
the owner, to whom nature had given one face, from
making herself another. Upon one occasion she stole
the keys of Horsemonger-lane Jail, and caused the
most extraordinary sensation amongst those most in-
terested, they supposing that another Jack Shepherd
was in the prison ; and all the ingenuity of the
keepers was set to work to prevent an attempt to
escape. Notwithstanding her frequent attentions to
this system of plunder, she was never known to neg-
lect her children. In superintending their education
she seemed to have recovered the use of her reason,
for she performed the duties of a mistress with great
ability, and with a power of discrimination which it
would be well to see imitated.—'lle Lena MAYeft

P.S.—I have just seen a letter from Madrid,
shewn to me by a friend, in which it is stated, that
several Constitutional champions, and among them
Merino atd Melchor, have written to the Govern-
ment of Madrid, threatening them, that if they take
away the life of any of the Officers arrested by O'Don-
nel, they will retaliate upon the prisoners they have
already taken, or may hereafter take. Thus for each
hero Ferdinand may murder, he will lose fourteen or
fifteen of his own slaves."
