military being on the alert by half-past sever. o'clock,
the rioters did not proceed to any acts of violence. A
number of the turn-outs at the factory of Mr. Graves,
returned to their work yesterday morning.
The badness of die week that bas passed has not quite equalled
the preduady formed expectations ; not that buyers do not offer,
for there are buyers, but at such low prices as to leave, to very few
cases, little profit, and in many none.

a very beautiful woman, had lived in great splendour
in Margaret-street, Cavendish-square, under the pro.
tection of a person named iseresford. In June last, this
person abandoned her, and since that time, she had been
an the most distressed and destitute condition. On the
night of Sunday fortnight, she was seen standing in the
street crying. She said her landlady had turned her
out of doors, and that she had been in the streets all the
previous night, and was nearly frozen to death. She
likewise said, she had been without food three days. A
female, named Scott; then took her home to her loJging
in Meard'.-eourt, where she remained about a week, and
occasionally went to the Hospital for medical advice.
Saturday she seemed to be in a dying state, and then
the .woman Scott, and her companions, abruptly quitted
their apartments iu Meard's-court, and lett the poor
creature on the bed, where she
-died. The medical men
who had ezaapined the body, said her lungs were so
much diseased, tbit they had adhered to the cavity of
the ches'. ghe h'ad died a natural death.—The Jury
returped a t, erdiet. to that effect.
