Halifax, and taking Is on board at tha. port for
Boston.
The Arcadia arrived at Liverpool on tho 18th,
Il 81 da,s from Halifax. having loft Boston on
f ale lst.
The mos. important intelligence by this arrival
shat of serious and extensive riots in the anuac-
mring and mining districts OF England and Scotland
Their exciting cause was farther reduction OF
7 ,apes BY some large employers in Manchester
md its vicinity. This seems to have been the
drop which made the cup overflow, and the long
8 l.stra;nsd discomfort OF the people burst forth.
After numerous meetings at S,aylebridge, Ash
,oa, and Mcttram, there was general turnout oil
the spinners and weavers at the former place, IN
compliance with the demands Of immense
Il rob They compelled GOLFERS calco-arin;ers,
q md other trades to join them, and went to Duck
I nfield, Ashton, Oldham, Hyde, Fairfield, Droyls-
Z len. Denton, and other surrounding towns, stop
Y ling mills in all these places. At Manchester
pey were frequently dispersed by the military,
but re-es.e nbed ard succeeded in stopping all the
4 vorks of Manchester and Stafford. Thence they
4 extended their ncur.ions to Stockport, Maccles-
tld. Glossop, Tintwistle Haywood, Middleton,
Oldham, Rochdale, Bury, Bolton, Chorley, Black
burn, Cltheroe, Burnley, Preston, Wigan and all
4 the surrounding towns where the population was
great or manufacturers existed, causing one uni
rcrsal and widespread instruction, whilst SINH
Z lar course was pursued by the Golfers in the Stat
sierdshire Poltcrie, and at Glasgow
q Since Tuesday, the 9th instant, Manchester has
been in complete state of disorganzation, all
s bu.iness being at stand still. and the military
being constantly engaged in dispensing riotous
ssemblages. There has, however, bccs, compar-
sthely speaking, very little destruction ofProPerty
and not much punder, though many OF the mills
haze been attacked and the shop-keepers have
BEN compelled to give up their stocks OF provi-
stas. AT Halifax, Blackburn and Preston, the
military have fired upon the mobs, and several
lives have been lost. The mill-owncrs having
! been compelled TO close their establishments, have
d.armined not to re-open them until quiet shall
have bcea perfectly restored.
There docs not appear to have been any actual
outbreak in Lendon, but threatening symptoms
s. vse apparent and much alarm existed. The
q Dke of Wellington has had an interview with
4 a Police Magistrates and arrangements were
ssde to put dows any riots in the metropolis
! Trains on the London and Birmingham Railway
q zero ordered to be in readiness for any emergency
n Several regiments were ordered lie hold themselves
h iasadiness.
Messrs Harnden & Co have letter from Lon
n donstatng that the house of Sir Robert Peel, at
+ Imwertl, was surrounded on the 18th and burnt
e Troops were sent from Birmingham to quall the
so,,'
he'Aierning Post of the 10Th says some of the
stsaries at Manchester, and the whole of those at
i Pnson, had resumed work, under the protection
The civil and military force. At Blackburn
most of the mills continue working, and the town
vsquiet, after an examination by the ma asistrates
& Of about ninety persons, asd tho committal OF
gnsl number of them for trial.
The mag istrates at Burslem. in Staffordshire,
had succeeded in re-establishing their authority;
and in the pottery district great number of the
rs.ess had been apprehended and safely conveyed
aSahord Jail.
Birmingham remained free from riot, and Gov
slry also although The latter had been invaded by
humorous body of refractory golfers.
Notwithstanding the unsettled state of trade,
consequent upon the Disturbances the middling de-
1sipions of cotton had advanced I'D. since our
Previous advices, and there was tendency to inn
pOement in the prices of the other grades.
q The prospects for the harvest were still most
Il fssorsble. The crop would be abundant one,
and from the favorable state Of the weather will
mast probably be secured in excellent condition
