APPSALS.-WRITS OF ERROR.

According to Returns presented to the Houssof Lords,
and just printed, illustrative of the business transacted
by the Lord Chancellor in the House of Peers, itappears
that since May, 1813• there bare been 503 Appeals pre-
sented. Of these 373 were Scotch; 52 English; 73
!rids, and three Welch. Of the total number, 333 have
he beard, and 341 decided—leaving 207 that remain
for hearing. Thus scarcely three-fifths of the appeals
presented, since 1813 down to the present period now be-
tore Do, hare been decided. Of the 207 undecided eases
•that remain out of the 503 Appeals presented to the
Mouse of Lords, since 1813, there are 132 Scotch; 29
English ; 41 l ish, and two Welch appeals.
The ism account is " the number of Write of Error
pieseitied, conproid, heard, and decided on, in each
Session, from 31 May, 1813, to the present time." The
several Sessions need not be detailed. There were, in
that period, presented 241 Writs of Error. Of that
',anther 100 were " noupros'd t" 74 beard; 73 decided;
and 27 mania to be heard. Thas there has been much
greater progress and despatch mad• wills the Writs of
Error than with the Appeals. While two•fifths of the
Appeals remain to be decided, there is only one-ninth
of the Writs of Error now undisposed of. This is the
more satisfsetory, because it is generally understood
that Wtits of Error are but too frequently presented to
de jw.tier. It may be interesting to add, that of tba
Vi'tlis of Error there were two Scotch (in the Appeals
ti:vr have a rsst majority); 227 English; and 12 lessb ;
and shot of the 27 which remained undecided four were
Scotch; 22 English ; and one Irish.

ribbio manufacturers is this City, which created a
great natation amongst the nomeroes class of persons
engaged in that important branch of bu,iness. The
'eV/neon in the prices was considered so material, aid
so prejudicial to the interests of the artisan, that a
general strike took place ; and on Monday messing,
scarcely a lone, as to be beard at work throughout
the whole extent of the City. Oa that morning, a
numerous meeting of weaver, and town's people
assembled in a close nearly adjoining the London
Ro►d, to discuss the grimaces connected with this
new list of prices, when it was rescind, that an appeal,
of a petitlvary nature, be protested to the masters,
stating the cause of their complaints, and praying Ur
their removal. The appeal was banded, in a printed
.furs, to the manufacturers. lo the evening a meet*
was again held at the same plies, ter furthering tile
object in view, and to report rugriss.
On Tuesday morning, the weavers assembled Cid
paraded thermals the streets of the City, in a loyal;
peaceable, ar.d orderly manner. No hooting or hiss-
ing was heard—nor even any conversation among the
persons forming the procession. The strictest silence
was preserved, and io this manner they reached their
'accustomed place of meeting, when, after having
.entered into some discussion on the businees, they
separated again to assemble in the everting. It was
.tbeo expected some information would be furnished
by the deputation appointed to wait on the master., as,
to their intentions with respect prices. It was se-
eordingly stated that several of the most respectable
masters had beers _waited sure, but that the greater
part of these could not be met with, being front home.
A heavy shower of race stopped further procesdisgs for
that evening.
On Wednesday Morning and evening, meetings took
place. the weaver* parading the City as usual. In the
evening, a report was made of t►ose masters who had
declared themselves in favour of the list of 1819; their
