STATE OF TAB IMUNTItY.
Dugs. M, ttie: 11.— Ik•inteting of the Magis-
traterof meaty was held at the Jollier-room
here on Wcdaesdsy last, " for the purpose of taking
into considiontion the political state of Chester
Ward, and to adopt such measures as circsinetaeces
may seem to render expedient." Thirty-eight
Magistrates attended. and. we understand. much
important and interesting information was laid be-
fore them. The number of the dinifeeted be-
!Wien the rivets Tyne and Wear was stated, ill
Vs are informed, WOO : pikes had been mode le;
inese parts of Chester Ward. according to a oarti-'
oder model. At Jarrow it is stated there are five
dimes ; at Slteriff-hill six ; at Penshaw four; and
at Ralston nineteen. These ore said to meet mice
a-week at the bosses of the Chisa-leaders. They
are reported eo be armed, and to practise. drilling
sod training. They costemplate a general ismer-
rection, but wait for lenders. The wages of
these wee are about Itta. per week, extlemive
of
house and fire. They say they want things to be
put to rights. Qnsrrels amongst themselves are
said to base diminished their numbers. Universal
Suffrage is understood by many to mean universal
suffering. The same spirit was aseertained to exist
also at Houghton, Newhottle, Helton, Hebhure,
Washington, IFatield, Meant Moore, Winlatu%
Team, Felling, Sesiderlaad, South Shields, he,
At liebbern nerabers arc said to be in prosodies
of arms, eitech have been increased since the In-
trodeetios of the restrictive Bills into Parliament;
and the mee have become mere violent in declaring
resistance to any search for arms. They have
eoa-
slant communications with the South through the
medium of delegates. Much distress is said to exist
at South Shields arnengst the sailors and ship-
wrights; and at Winlaton, and that neiekbetio►
hood, amongst the weavers and other workmen.
In the other parts of the county the labouriog
classes have no Jost cause for complaint, particularly
the pit-men.
In consequence of the alarm which has been ex-
cited in this neighbourhood, by reports of an ex-
pected eruption of the Reformers, the Doti=
Yeomanry Cavalry entered upon military duty ban
on Saturday last; and on Monday the Olbsitle
troop arrived in this city, and jollied their brethren
in arms. We understand Sir Thomas Burden's
Corps has also bee. called into active service at
Newcastle.
A troop of the 4th Dragoons is expected to arrive
in this city in the course of to-day, and to remain
tilt further orders —Purham Coney Advertiser.)
The above statement has been contradicted in a
Morning Paper, by the following paragraph
" We have authority to state, that a paragraph
which appeared in the Durham Advertiser of Sa-
turday, the 11th instaut, purporting to be an ac-
count of evidence laid before a General Meeting
of Magistrates of the county of Durham, on Wed-
nesday last, is very incorrect, although the neces-
sity of observing strict secrecy respecting the
evidence as it really appeared, makes it impossible
to point out the errors."

relating to the capture of lava or tint. The brother
of Mr. G. Clarke was also celled, and swore that he
