"I.O.DELAC.
Oct. 9, o'clock at night"
Among the other novelties of the dav we
find, under the head of Sunderland, that
the seamen of the Tyne have entered into
combination 10 raise their wages, and TO
augment the number of hands in working
their ships, which has been opposed by the
shipholders. This combination appears to
have arisen to an alarming height, az the
following article shows:
A procession took place through Sun
derland on Tuesday, amounting to about
1900 men, which for the most part were
the exclusive sesmen working from the
Wear. They were preceded by music and
co,ors, and moved on like a regular or
gauzed body, without any tumult, or Offer
ing any insult TO the Inhabitants, or indiyid-
ua's whom they met.
1t isreally hard to say, what measures
would bebest, as any forcibe interference
would only eXaspcratc them to commit ex-
cesses, while determination on their BART,
and noncompliance on the other, must
damage the trade, and much inconyeni-
ence to London.
The whole, on the Tyne and Wear,
may be fairly estimated at about 10000
men, and such is their regularity, that
they have patrolcs at night and if a
ny one is found committing any depre-
dation, he is Immediately punished, by
having his coat turned, and his face tar
red.
When it is taken into consideration that
these men are employed in the iaborious
and all-importsnt branch of commerce,
| that of supplying Goals to the city of Lon
don and other parts of the kingdom of En-
gland, it will be seen what IN eject an
emb irgo or stoppage of trade must have
upon the interest and feelings, and necessi-
ties OF the whole community. This article
mentions, that they have conducted their
proceedings with the utmost regularity,
but that they haze prevented al vessels
from sailing tbat have not complied with
their terms-:hst they nave hLacards stuck
up in different streets which closes with
| these expressions" that unless tn eir
claims are concurred in, they must either
starve or prevent this calamity by serving
| under foreign crowns"
The river, it is stated, is full of ships,
as the embargo has continued weeks.
We have seen nothing which bars so
alarming front as this since the DAYS of
Pirket. is of little importance at which
end the flame lights, 50 that it burns up
wards, and for the sake Of mankind, and
the liberation of their rights, we hope the
day is approaching in that nation, when
the universal Voice will rise az inst tyran-
ny----" Then cry havoc
