D COCHRANE'S ESCAPE FROM VI.
KING'S BEN& 1
,
ices reported last night, but not believed, that
COCHRANE had made his escape from the
s Bench Prison. We have therefore endea-
'd to ascertain the troth of this report, by
sg enquiry at the King's Bench, and find that
rokle Lord has not been seen by any of the
ws of the Prison, or by any other person, since
lay evening. Ilia Lordship's servant declares,l
se saw his Master for the last time on Monday
ig, about nine o'clock, and the supposition is. ;
ie made his escape that night.
rious reports are in circulation, sccountii'g 01
lost extraordinary occurrence—among othe,i,
said, although evidently false, that he was re•
I on the night of Monday from the prison, to
more secure place of confinement, while tha
bances in London continued. Others state, i
e had concealed himself in the prison, for the
se of giving colour to the above report. I
i, of course, would create a great sensatiim I
a public mind. Nobody appears to be able'
y way to account for this extraordinary
sstauce ; and until it is more certainly knovm ,
e has absolutely escaped, positive as it apparok
at present, it would be improper to give rul'- 1
to the rumours that are in circulation ; a it:A '
, however, will remove every doubt.

the attempt to interfere with a people desirous of
:tatlishing their own liberties and of choosing
,dr own friends and governors, is to be con-
rnned,—our own dowitic affairs, the frightful
to which the country in which we live is

,ought—demand the wlaole of our attention. We
ire indeed to-day no: quite such a dismaying cats-
(ague of the effects of popular disorder and indig-
ition, es we have bad to record for some days past,
.t there is " that which passeth show," that which
felt, though not yet seen, deeply pervading the
mind •and shedding a baleful influence on the
ail flower of pubfa. happiness, which its natural
13 rdiaas seem •but ill calculated and less inclined to
'Tis not the rouses hand of despotic autho-
ority, nor the countless ccrdons of armed men,
!In may be made to flourish the's sabres over it that
11 efface this evil—the most liberal policy and the
Jest legislation, are as necessary to this end, as free

Intl healthful respiration is to the patient, who has
;mg been tossing on the bed of pain and disease. The
tendency to mischief must be repressed, but vben

see dissatisfaction heated into anarchy, and hear
le members of the executive government exclaiming,
hat if they were not protected in the discharge of
!heir functions, and were not permitted to legislate
Iraly and deliberately, the Government was gone,
4i. Parliament was gone, the Cons►itution and the
iberties of Eitzlishmen were gone, we are tempted
► enquire to what the proceedings so justly stip•
►tined owe their origin, and why it happens that
protection of the Executive has become necessary

.ne representatives of the people in the discharge
their duties ;—why it is that the country is corn-
plaioing from one end to the other of violated rights,
of partially prot-eling laws, of unequal and oppres-
sive taxation. of neglected representations, and dis-
regarded prayers ? Thank GOD ! neither the majority
dere population of the Metropolis, nor the Country,
we have reason to believe, participate in, or sanction
• the disgraceful proceedings which have spread tur-
bulence and riot so widely of late; hut are the majority
of the people of this Country without ground of
complaint when so universally denounced a measure
is had recourse to and persevered in to the last, at
the risk of endangering the peace and safety of the
I:miiire at large, as that which has for its object the
raising of the price of bread and creating an artificial
scarcity, when in the natural rder of things, every
necessary of life ought to fall in price, and plenty
go hand in hand with industry—and when the tens of
thousands and hundreds of thousands of respectable
men who have been all their lives accustomed to cal-
culation, to whom the state and country are under
the most lasting obligations, and who may be sup-
posed as well acquainted with the operation of taxes
upon prices, and the corn and meal trade, anti trade
and its secrets in general, as the CHANCELLOR of the
Excitratlen (no disparagement to his acquaintance
with Cocite, or the rule of three) have their con-
s'ituranal representations scouted in the face of their
representatives, and are told either to mend their
arithmetic or not petition at all !
But too well founded and increasing in their nature
and extent as are the causes of public dissatisfaction,
we are glad to say it has ceased, we hope entirely,
to be manifested in the outrageous manner which has
lately been exhibited. The Metropolis, however,
was not free from disturbance last night. About two
hundred individuals went to the house of Mr. Davies
Giddy, in Holler-street, Cavendish-square, and com-
menced an attack upon the windows, many of which
were broken. Some blank-cartridges having,however,
been fired from the windows of the second floor,
they soon dispersed, and proceeded, shouting and
buzzaing, up Oxford-street; from thence into Grosve-
nor-square, and so into Park-lane—in their course
occasionally breaking a few windows, in a wanton
manner. The Horse Guards—patroles of soldiers—
and numerous bodies of constables were, however,
every where on the alert, and any regular attack was
thereby prevented. The party at length dispersed,
cid tranquillity was restored. The houses on which
attacks were anticipated have been provided with in-
valids from Chelsea, as a sort of domestic guard, and
fire-army are provided by all.
The Corn Bill is to be finally read in the House
of Commons to-night. It is generally believed that
6041 no alteration can now be expected to be made
in it in the lower House, the Bill will receive in the
Barrie of Lords great modifications. It seems gene-
rally understood that 725. upon averages fairly made,
will meet the wishes of the landowners and farmers.
But will even this modification sati,fy the public ?
In the meantime great precautions are taking out of
doors to secure the public peace. The Magistrates
have stations in various parts of the town, where
tl.ere is any danger of disturbance. Military Depots
have aiso been appointed, at which there is an ample
supply of infantry, cavalry, and artillery, in con-
%taut readiness to quell the tendency to mischief.— ,
The Magistrates have a strong body of Constables
in all directions, and hold a communication with the
Military Depots.
The town has been alarmed by rumours of distur-
bances in ditlerent parts of the country; but as we i
no notice of such occurrences in the Provincial
P• era, we presume they are unfounded.

Parliament adjourned early last night. Some sub-
.
:0., however, of interest, came under discussion.—
lu the conversation which took place on the new
11"4, we observe, with pleasure, that the CUANCEL.
