distance from Lincoln is 99 miles. The Learned Omit.
travelled all Monday night, pleaded at Warwick ms

SHOCIMO ACCIDINT.—On the afternoon, of Thurs-
day last, as an unloaded boat was proceeding through
tie tunnel of the Worcester and Birmingham Canal,
near King's Nut ton, propelled by a maticeuvre, technia
tally called legging, the plank, which is usually secured
in a slight elevation from the cabin to the steint gave
way, and the master, a man named Wood, and his son,
a lad 11 years of age, were precipitated into the water.
lairs wife, who, together with five small children, was
in the cabin, hearing the splash of the water. conjec-
tured the accident which had happened, and lighted a
candle for the purpose of affording them assistance.
Her efforts were unfortunately retarded by the current
of air, a hich extinguished the light. She however pro-
cured another, and succeeded in grasping her husband,
but not having sufficient strength to retain her hold,
and being nearly falling herself into the water, was
compelled to le{ him go. She caught him a second
time, and by their united exertion be was providentially
enabled to cling to the side of the boat until he raised
himself into it again. The boat unfortunately, during'
this time, had drifted to a considerable distance from
the spot where the accident happened, and when the
ag;tated woman discovered her son it was impossible
to make any exertion for the preservation of his life, and
be was drowned.
About eight o'clock on Fliday night, as a girl was
passing along Bridge-street, near to Earl-street, Black

Salmon, of Crescent -place, one about five, and the other

• On Monday last, a Meeting of the unemployed
workmen of Almondbury and the neighbourhood, con-
vened by public advertisement, took place on Almond-
bury-bank, for the purpose of" taking into consideration
the present unparalleled distress of the labouring classes,
and the best method of making their case known, and
of obtaining relief."—From 1,500 to 2,000 person, wet e
pram'. A number of resolutions
_were passed, ex-1
pressive of their distressed situation, the most important
of which was one to memorialize the Eatl of Flat ewood,
Lord Lieutenant of the West Aiding of Yorkshire, to
ike the;gcase known, that some means may be adopted
to relieve Iheir present calamities. The conduct of the
people was perfectly peaceable. A deep gloom per-
vaded the whole assembly, Rncl even hope, which comes
to all, seamed almost extinguished. Ti e following is
a copy of the Memorial to the Earl of Hat ewooti :
" To the /tight Honourable the Lord Lieutenant of the West-
Hiding of the County of York.
" MT Loan—We, the undersigned s, spinners, and la•
bourn, of the town and neighbourhood of Altnondbury, humbly
beg leave to make our distressing case known to your Lordship,
fully confiding ha your known generosity of disposition, and your
wish for the peace, happiness, and prosperity of our country. We
are men, and though, from our bumble situation in life, some may
deem it presumptuous in us to approach into your presence, yet the
necessity of our families demands at our bands every lawful exer-
tion to obtain bread for our wives and children, since the sources
of our labour and industry have failed. These blessings have fled
from us fur some months past, and after having tried parochial and
charitable aid, we find them quite Inadequate to our wants. The
greatest proportion of our employers, after having used their best
endeavours to continue our work, we fear are fast falling under the
difficulties which are now overwhelming the commercial and ma-
nufacturing classes in one common ruin.

"The few who have ventured to memorialise your Lordship.
under these most trying circumstances, only form the outline of
hundreds and thousands of their fellow-workmen, whose eases are
equally distressing and appalling. And we most humbly beg your
Lordship to make the necessary Inquiry into our state, and to order
such relict' as will keep our families tir rsistenee and preserve the
peace of the country.--The tale of our distress and sufferings is too
long for a memorial; but if your Lordship will condescend to give
as a personal interview, we will relate our various trials and suffer-
kegs, and we doubt nor but your Lordship will use your best ender
roan for our relief. s And your Memorialists will ever pray."
111ANCHITATER, JOLT 14.
Thursday night a meeting of upwards of a thousand
persons to ik place in St. George's fields, Nl.4nchester.
Two flint harangued the moS, and urged them instantly
to arm themselves, and be prepared to acquire their
rights. Oa a cry that the soldiers were corn ng, one of
tne men e;llcd out 0, Let them come; we may as well
die our, as die in our own homer. The people at Ashton
are resolved not to die itsr, and why should you ?" This
harangue was received with lead shouts, in which, how-
ever, the people did not all join ; and after they had
been exhorted to come armed on Friday night, they dis.
parsed. Of course considerable alarm prevails here;
but the military are in sufficient force to put down any
tumultuous assemblage.

CHARGE UNDER JONATHAN WILD'S ACT.

Saturday, at the Mansion House, inelfil Lee was brought before
the Loan hiATOL charged under the followiug circumstances
lir. Prior, a silversmith, in Gracecburcb street, stated that his
house had been broken open A short time ago, and robbed of pro.
perty to the amount of between 4001. and 5001.1 all that could be
done by the firm had been don. to detect the thieves. On Sunday
se'nnight, when the family were going to divine service,tbe prisoner
Lee came into Mr. Capper's house, where witness was, and said he
could recover the goods if be got SOL Witness observed to him, that,
if the goods and the thieves were brought before the Lord Mayor,
be should feel no hesitation in giving the lona required.—Tbe Pri-
soner : I was never seen by the prosecutor, except in the company
of Cowton, the officer, and I never had any idea,of taking the sa
without bringing up the offenders.—Mr. Prior said, that Lee bad
said the offenders could be irought forward; that he bad seen the
rwidth had been stolen, and that they had been all correct on
edildnesday, at a house. The Loan Maven asked who the pri.
loner was, and what he represented hinted( to be? Witness—He
told me he was an Officer in the Secretary of State's Office, and
superior to a Bow-street officer. The Loss Maros said, there was
an imputation against Cowton, the officer. in this case. Cowles
said the prisoner had come to him upon the occasion, but be had had
wiprevioss acquaintance with him, and knew nothing about his
abject.—Mr. Prior said he had not paid a halfpenny, as be was de-
termined that it should all come before the Lord Mayor. The
Loma Matron: The prisoner does not appear to be aware that be is
accused of a crime for which a person has hewn banged, and others
have been coovicted and sentenced.
Cowtoo, the officer. stated, that on the Seth of June, the pri-
soner came to Mtn, while he ems at dinner, and said he bad bees
sent to him by an officer of the City. The prisoner stated, that
be knew who had committed the robbery at Mr. Prior's, and
could get back the property. Witness thought the opportunity
ought not to be lest, but stated distinctly to the prisoner, that no.
thing could be done without taking up the prisoner and the goods
before the Lord Mayor. Witness asked whether there would be
a reward, and Mr. Vosekk, a tradesman, who lived opposite to Mr.
P.'s house. and who had been robbed to a large amount a short
time previously, stated, that there should be a reward if all the
goods were returned, or a reward in proportion to the value of the
recovery.—Mr. Prior t I certainly acceded to the proposal.—
Covrton stated that he went with Lee to a public-house. Lee there
said he was going to see one of the men engaged in the business at a
public house, and asked him (witness) for a little money, as he
wanted to produce a small sample of the goods before he should get
the warrants. Witness then lent him a sovereign, and the pri-
soner appointed to meet him at 7 o'clock. Witness waited till 9,
but in vain. Lae called, however, nest day, when the witness
was not within, and left word-that he should call again at one
o'clock. Lee never made his appearance. but was apprehended
at 3 o'clock in the morning..—The Loan MAYOR said, an imputa•
