mmediate localit nem on . Monday, to concert
such measures as n. -0, necessary in the present
state of affairs. The weavers in the employ of Mr. W.
Morris, Salford, have applied to him to request that they
may be allowed to return to their work upon the terms
:.
which he had offered to them previous to the strike, and
he has acceded to their wishes. They will resume work
on Monday ----, of the

kt Preston, the positi
masters and their workpeople is one of decided oppos.
The masters have determined to close their mills entirely
until the hands abate their demand for increased wag.
Most of the mills have been locked up, and now no less
than 14 are closed against the operativeS, whose number
is estimated at from 10,000 to 12,000.—At Wigan, eight
mills are closed, employing 2,500 hands ; and to-day the
notices will expire at nine other mills; which will add an
additional 3,500 to those alraady out of employment, thus
increasing the number of mill hands that will be idle to
6,000 ; whilst there are, in addition, 4,000 colliers idle,
who have turned out for advanced wages. This makes a
total of no less than 10,000 persons who will have ceased
to earn their own subsistence, in one town alone.—ln
consequence of the proceedings of some of the operatives
at Burnley, the masters have intimated their intention to
stop their mills entirely, and to-day is fixed for con-
cluding on the measures to be adopted. At Coke the
mills are working short time. It is pretty generally
understood, that on Tuesday next, although no meeting
has been called, a general assembly of employers will take
place, to confer on the present position of affairs.—
