The Market has reatained very steady the whole
of this Account, scarcely fluctuating of one quarter':
Settling Day will be Wednesday next. From the
favourah'e report of the Revenue it was expected
some alteration would havenaken place, but last
night's Consols were done at 69, and this morning
fell to 68 7/8. The Bank pay the Merchants this day
the dividends, and to-morrow the Public.

We stated about a month ago, that although the
Public Accounts for the current Quarter would ex-
hibit a falling-off in the trade of the Country to the
amount of some millions, there would, on the whole
Revenue, be no deficiency; but, on the contrary, in-
cluding the last new taxes, a considerable surplus.
The accuracy of this statement has been fully con-
firmed by the Quarter's accounts, which were made
up yesterday. The surplus is £941,000. In the cor-
responding Quarter of last Year, there was a defi-
ciency of £82,000.

Our accounts from Glasgow, received this morn-
ing, are, we are much concerned to state, of a very
gloomy description. In the STAR of Tuesday we
gave an article from a Leeds Paper, entitled " Dis-
turbances It Huddolfield," stating that the Magis-
trates had on Friday (the 3lst ult.) received infor-
mation that great numbers of the lower class in
that neighbourhood, were armed with pikes and
pistols, and that some kind of attack upon the town
was meditated, to take place on a given signal that
eight, by numbers of pikemen, in bodies of 200
each. The whole detail appeared so'strange, so in-
credible, that, though we felt it our duty to state
the impressions, whether true or false, on which the
Magistrates were there acting, we gave it without
any remarks of our own. It appeared next day in
all the Morning Papers; and in them, generally,
also without any comment—a proof of the light
in which the statement was then held. But there
- is one circumstance in which that detail agrees
with the accounts received this morning from
Scotland, which induces us now to apprehend that
some plan of general co-operation has actually been
contemplated, and, r a certain extent, endeavoured
to be organized, by some wicked and turbulent men.
The Huddersfield rising was to have been in the
night of the 31st of March—that is, the evils of
anarchy were to march: into open view on the Ist
of April l—proverbially, Fooli-day"—(fools in-
deed must they be, and worse, who can embark in
such projects)—and it will be seen, by the subjoined
details, that the same day had been fixed upon for,

throwing off the mask at Glasgow, and the neighbour-
ing manufacturing towns ; and probably proceed-
ing to acts of violence, had not means been provided
to overawe them.

Providentially—We say providentially, the secret

agitators and leaders had the imprudence to post, on
the night of Ist April, and early on the following morn-
ing, in great numbers, in Glasgow and the neighbour-
hood, a most inflammatory and seditious Bill, calling
upon the-People, in plain language, to rise in 'Kau and
eject a Revolution in the Government by fine of arms.
The Magistrates of course, whatever might be their
other means of information, were thus fully warned
of the danger with which the public peace was
threatened; and, we are happy to say, acted with
a degree of promptitude and firmness equal to
the danger of the crisis. The military force in the
reighbouthood, which is strong, various, and well-
appointed, was instantly put upon the alert; and a
public Proclamation was issued, warning the mis-
guided multitude, that any attempt to disturb the
public peace would be held as a seditious tumult,
and be met with that decided repression, and inflic-
t:on of punishment, which such attempts so impe-
riously call for.
We are happy to add, that this determined con-
duct, on the part of the local Authorities,'had the
effect to prevent any armed rising ; but many of the
people, we are sorry to say, have thrown themselves
out of work, and, when our accounts left Glasgow
(three o'clock on Monday), were walking about in
gloomy parties, or standing in sullen groupes, shewing
ro disposition to return to their employments. For
particulars we refer our Readers to the following
accounts

FROM THE GLASGOW HERALD.
" We are extremely sorry to state, that at no time'
s'n:e the hegianing of Radicalism has there been
such a general apprehension of danger as within
these last ten days in Glasgow and its neigbourhood.
• It was supposed that the new-fangled notions which
dazzled some of our people had given way to the
