place in Carlisle, during the canvass of Sir Philip
Musgrave, late NJ. u. for that city. Having Gu
tered yard in Nllburne's buildings, Shaldon-gate
with his friends, they were surrounded by the po-
puisce, who reproached the candidate for his vote
on the Corn Laws, and of Mr. Abercron'bie's mo-
ton respecting the representation of Edinburgh,
and Insisted on his giving pledge for radical re-
form. After some parley, Sir =. and has hiends

assailed by the mob with stones, SC. and all more
or less injured. Major Wilde was brought TO the
ground by blow from stone On the head, and
Sir p. lamed, but got into house with one or
two friends, and fastened the door. Here they
were kept prisoners for two or three hours The
Mayor, and large body OF gentlemen and con
stables who attempted TO lbelate them being driven
away by the missiles of the mob, who peed them
out of Shajdon-gate, Barnes, the police officer,
with cooked pistol in his hand. and another per
son, got through the crowd but glad TO escape
back without accomplishing their object. The vic
tory elated the people, and when party OF the
18Th regiment, preceded by a few arie,ymen,
we're brought up by the Mayor and Magistrates
they were assailed in the same manner, and after
the riot act had been read, were ordered to fire in
their own defence. This they obeyed, and IN
fortunately shot four persons, who were not Of the
most guilty. Mary Burrell, young woman OF %,

Green street; boy Of Is, named Skinner, was
shot through the leg; man named Robert Noble,
who said be was seeking his children in the crowd,
received ball in his BREAST and little hopes were
entertained OF his recovery. The las, was fine
girl OF :, named Pa,tinson, who was dreadlllly
wounded on the head by a ball, which came through
the shutter OF the school, in which she was sitting
the window having been closed by the mistress,
whose name Is Stevens. II is said that abou, 80
shots fired before the mob dispersed; but the
above were the only casualties. Sir z. Musgraye
was rescued and conveyed away by his friends,
during the confusion.
