MANCUESTER COTTON SPIN HERS.

-We regtet to state that, the accoinits, received in
town this ateniing, from Manchester, are rather of
an alarming description, On Wednesday afternoon
the whole body of refractory Cotton Spinners in that
place, joined by upwards of 10,000 men from Stock-
pOrt, paraded the streets in the most menacing man-
ner ; and having repaired to the Mill of Mr. BENJA-
MIN GRAY, to Which a number of the more peaceably
disposed labourers had returned to work, they threa-
tened to demolish it ; and were actually proceeding
to carry their threat into effect, when a body of mi-
litary and police, who were stationed in the inside
for the defence of the place, deemed it to be neces-
sary to fire upon the aggressors. Five persons, the
accounts state, were wounded, two of them mortally.
An additional detachment of military having has-
tened to the spot, the multitude were dispersed, with-
out any farther mischief. Their total number is es-
timated at 30,000, and unless speedy measures are
taken for putting an end to the combination, still
more serious consequences are apprehended.
