LEEDS-SANE DATE

The men employed in an extensive stone•quarry,
near this town, were requested by their masters not
to attend the Meeting at Hunslet, on Monday last,
on account of the numerous orders on hand ; fourteen
of them, however, disregarded the request and at-
tended the Meeting. The consequence was, that
next day they were all discharged.

At Hunslet, the grand rendezvous of the seditious
of this vicinity, Meetings are held every night, in a
room hired for the purpose, which the Radicals call
" The House of CornmOns."—Leeds Independent.
We have the best authority for saying, that num-
bers of persons in the Procession which disgraced
our streets on Monday last, were provided with
heads of pikes, ready, in case of as attack, to screw
on the large sticks with which so many of them were
armed.—ldent.

A folly Radical, reeling through Leeds on Mon-
day, sn a state of intorication, attracted particular
notice, from the aurnpriate inscriptiorrin the ftont
of his hat :—" Iteyo, motion or Ruination!;"

Pasture. WILLIAM JACKSON, who has presided at
former Meetings, was called to the Chair. After some
little discussion, a series of Resolutions to the follow.

trade, at the expense of the comfort and happiness of
their workmen, and the welfare of the Public at large:
that, to.prevent the recurrence of a practice so preg-
nant with misery, it is the determination of the Meet.

fact urers who shall give out work under the List.

the great body of the People.
