THE ANTI-CORN-LAW LEAGUE RIOTS.

We resume our report of the disturbances in the manu-
facturing and mining districts. In most of these localities
comparative order has been established, and if our account
contains no mention of places which have .recently been the
*scenes of the most alarming outbreaks, it may be taken for
granted that in those quarters tranquillity has been restored,
and that no further disturbance is likely to occur. The nar-
rative below contains the proceedings up to Saturday night,
in the various disturbed districts, and the latest accounts
from our reporters, who are stationed over the country, will
be found in another column. •
