But as the hair falls off, from being too much relaxed, as well as from being too dry, when ill that state the use of oils cannot possibly be of service, the remedy must be of a bracing, strengthening nature, which will be found in the A S T R I N G E N T STRENGTHE N I N G L O T I O N ; it is recommended when the hair is naturally too moist, or after violent exercise, fevers, lying- in, & c. and is the best cleanser of the hair, lis it preserves the natural colour, anil gives it that fine gloss so much admired.

ESTCOURT'S CRITERION STROP, for S H A R P E N I N G RAZORS, P E N K N I V E S , & c— Though the very great sale of tho above celebrated Strop renders any advertisement enlarging upon its merits totally unnecessary, 5. Eastcourt feels it to be his indispensable duty to warn the Public from suffering itself to be imposed upon by any of the various imitations to which the great celebrity of this article has given rise, which is not unlikely to bo the case, as some of these imitations are made to appear, upon a superficial view, exactly the same. There is, however, one rule, by the observance of which these disgraceful attempts may bo entirely frustrated. Upon every genuine Criterion Strop the name of " S. Estcourt" appears on the front, for which, on the imitation strops, are substituted Royal," " Improved," or some other name, S. Estcourt therefore earnestly entreats all purchasers to be particular upon this point, by which means they will be sure to obtain the genuine article, instead of those from the purchase of which nothing but diaappomtment can accrue; since, however, its outward appearance may be imitated, every attempt has beeir » ain to imitate it in those invaluable qualities by which the patronage of tbe Public boeu so generally obtained." To provs the very great extent of this patronage, S. Bstcourt most respectfully solicits the attention- of tho Public to the fallowing statement of the sale of this Strop, perfectly satisfied that, Large as it i s it would have been very considerably increased but for the practice of those imjiositions. u I, Solomon Estcourt, sole Inventor of the ' Criterion Strop,' known by tha name of ' S. Estcourt's Criterion Strop,' uiako oath atid say, that 1 commenced making the abovenamea Strop in January ibl2, from which time to January 1816, I sold 20,000 and upwards; in 1816, 10,600 and upwards; ir. 1817. 10,300 and upwards; in 1318, 11,400 and upwards; and in 1919, up to June 2.

The distress of the Parents may be better imagined' than described. The condition of tbe child was such, that it could not be moved without being placed on a pillow, when Providence directed them to try the S O O T H I NG S Y R U P ( every other means proving useless), which $ fter usHtg a few times stopped the inflammation, and those alarming symptoms were entirely removed, and the child has cut her teeth with perfect ease.

Without* exciting salivation, debilitating the constitution, or emaciating tbe frame, they radically cure this noxious disease, restoring tbe patient to health and comfort, whilst his reputation remains ur. sullied, his attention to business uninterrupted, and at the same time he is rescued from the danger of trusting his life to the bauds of unskilful pretenders the delusions of empiricism, or the still more fatal consequences of concealment.

It is therefore expedient to be kept by householders as a preventive forthose melancholy consequences winch so frequently attend these injuries.

AL.. XCUE6TER REFORMERS. ( l- l( O. M A MORN'IWO PAPER.) Tho place appointed for the meeting was a large vacant piece of ground oil the north side of St. Peter's Church, which is well known in Manchester by the name of St. Peter's- place. At half- past 10 o'clock about 250 idle individuals might he collected within it. About half- par, t eleven the first body of Reformers arrived 011 the ground, bearing two banners, each of which was surniouuted bv a tap of libertr. The first bore upon a white ground the inscription of " Annual Parliaments,, and Universal Suffrage;" 011 the. reverse side, " N o Corn Laws."- The other bore upon a blue ground the same inscription, with the addition of " Vote bv Ballot." After these flags had bueu paraded over tho field for some time, it was thought lit hv the leaders of the party which had brought them, that thev shuild remain stationary. A" post was accordingly assi^ ed to the bearers of thcin, to which shortly afterwards a dung- curt was brought, into which the standard bearers were ordered to mount, and from which all the standards arriving afterward* were most appropriately displayed. Numerous large bodies of Reformers continued to arrive from this time to one o'clock, from the different towns in the neighbourhood of Manchester, all with flags, and manv of them drawn up five deep, and in regular marching order. A Club of Female Reformers, itnioiujting 111 number, according to our calculation, to 156, came from Oldham ; and another, not quite so numerous, from Rovton, The first bore a white silk banner, bv far the most elegant displayed during the djv, inscribed " Major Carhvrigkt's Bill, Annual Parliament, Universal Suffrage, and Vote by Ballot." In one compartment of it was Justice, holding the scales in one baud, and a sword in the other; in another, u large eye, which wo support was impiously intended to represent the - eye of providence. Q11 the reverse of this flag was another inscription ; but in the hurry of the day we found it impossible to decipher what it was, and can only say that there were upqi) it two hands, both decorated in shirt ruffles, clasffed in each other, and underneath them an inscription, " Uidluin Union" Tho latter ( i. c. the females of Roytyn) bore two red flags, the one inscribed, " Let us ( i. e. MQmei)) die like men, and nut be sold like slaves;" the other, " Annu. il Parliament and Universal Suffrage." The Radicals of Saddleworth brought with them a blackflag to the field, on one side of which was inscribed, " Taxation without rcpresenin/. ioti is unjust and tyrannical; c^ iial representation or death ,•" oil the other side, " Union ts strength.—- Unite and be free. Saddleworth ami Moslcy Union." The Reformers from Rochdals and Middleton inarched to the sound of the bugle, and in very regular time, closing and expanding their ranks, and marching iu ordinary and double quick time, according as it pleased the fancy of their leaders to direct them. They had two green haulers, between which they had hoisted on a red pole a Cup of liberty, crowned with leaves of laurel, and lieariiig tiie inscription, " Hunt / wd Liberty" Another band bore a banner, in which Britannia was represented with her trident, leaning on a shield, upon which was inscribed tlie motto borne by Sir Wm. " Wallace, " God Ar. netb the Patriot." Iu this manner the business of the day proceeded till one o'clock, bv which time we should suppose that SO. OOO ( Ksople were assembled on the ground. During this period " we found it impossible to approach tlie waggon, though very desirous to do 80, as a yating lad, uot more than 17 or 18, was addressing the meeting with great vehemence of gesture and action. As we stood counting the members of the Ol lliam Female Reform Club in their procession by us, and whilst we were internally pitying the delm- iou which had led thent to a scene so ill- suited U; their usual habits, a group of the women of Manchester, attracted by the crowd, came to the corner of ' the street where wc had taken our post. They viewed these Female Reformers for soiiie lime with a look in which compassion und disgusr were equally Llendt'd ; and at Ia3t burst out into an indignant e x c i t a t i o n — " Go home to vour families, and leave s/ lceiilee ittmtbrs af'these to your ) iusban< js and sons, who better understand' them," The { ypMca \ sfho thus addressed titciu were of the lower order in life. We had waited up to one o'clock ou the field of action for the arrival of Mr. Hunt; but as he had not- then made Jiis appearance, we determined to go and meet the procession, which it was said was to attend the orator. We met > t just by tho Exchange, where the people were cheering moat loudlv, and Hunt and Johnson joining in the cheers. They were seated in an open landau, along with Carlisle, Knight, and others, and had moved in grand procession from Sinedley Cottage, past New Cross, and Shude- hill, preceded by a large- body of male, and followed by a scarcely less numerous body of female Manchester Reformers. Before thetn were carried two boards, on which were inscribed, " Order, order s" these wdre followed by two flags for Annual Parliaments and Universal Suffrage, and also by Hunt's old flag and cap of liberty, of . Westminster notoriety, '" Hunt, and Universal Suffrage." This latter was held by a female Reformer, seated on the dicky of the landau, which had the honour of carrying the illustrious band'of patriots whose names we have just mentioned. It was now to be exhibited in the last of its fields. The enthusiasm excited " among the crowd by the preJ scnce of the Orator was certainly lievond anything which wc ever before witnessed, and- the cheers with which he was hailed were loud aud lasting. 1 ' When he had taken his stand njwn; the hustings, which were* formed of two carts lashed together, and boards spread over them, he expressed considerable disapprobation of the manner in which they were formed, and of the place in which they were situated. This i. vill not excite silrpnsc, when we state, that it was so arranged that the speaker had to talk against the wind; and also, that, on Mr. Hunt's last appearance at Manchester, the hustings were so slightly built as to yield to the pressure of the superincumbent crowd, though fortunately no accident happened from their giving way. After the different persons who intended to address the multitude had taken their position upon tlieru, and silence had been obtained, Johnson came forward, rtiid proposed that Henry Hunt be appointed their Chairman. • Here a short pause ensued, as if Johnson had expected that soine person would have come forward to second his proposition. No person, however, doing so, Johnson proceeded to call Upon them to carry the question by acclamation. ' The meeting did so', Rnd Ifenry Huut v/ aj declaftd Cliairman, amid cheers of three times three. The noise continuing longer than tisuali Hunt found it requisite to entreat his friends to preserve tranquillity. ' He commenced his address by calling the assembly " gentlemen," but afterwirds clianged the term to " fellow countrymen." He had occasion, he said, to entreut their indulgence. ( Noise continued.) Every man wishing to hear, must himself keep silence. [ Laughter', but 110 silence.) " Will you," said he, addressing himself to the mob, " be so obliging as not to call silence while the business of the day is proceeding?" ( Silence was then obtained.) He hoped that they would now cxertise the all- powerful tight of the i'! c ; and if . in;' ptTs& u would not be quiet, that they would put him down and keep him quiet. ( We mdl.) For the honour which they had ju.-. t conferred upon him, he returned them his most. sincere thanks: and for any services which he cither luid or might render them, all that he asked was, that they would indulge him with a calm and patient attention. It was impossible for him to think that with the unnpst silence he could make himself heard by every member of tlie numerous and tremendous meet-' ing which he saw assembled before him. If those, however, who were near him were not silent, how eouid it be expected that those who were at a distance could hear what he should say ? QA dead silence now pervaded the multitude.]] It was useless for him to reca! to their recollection the proceedings of the List ten davs in their town; they were all of them acquainted with the cause of the late meeting being postponed ; and it would be therefore superfluous in him to say any thing about it, except, indeed, it were this— that those who had attempted to put tnem down by the moat malignant exertions had occasioned them to meet that day in more than twofold numbers. ( Hear.) ( Knight here whispered something into Mr, Hunt's ear, which caused him to turn round with some degree of asperity to Kuight, and to say, " Sir, I will, not be interrupted : when you speak yourself, you will, not like to experience the same interruption.") They would have perceived, that since the old meeting had been put off, and the present one. had beeu called— though their enemies flattered themselves with having obtained a victory, tliev showed by their conduct that they hail sustained u defeat. ( Long and loud applause.) lu the interval between the two meetings, two placards had been circulated, to which the names. of two obscure individuals were attached : the first was signed by Tom Long or Jack Short, a printer in the town whom nobody knew. At this stage of the business the Yeomanry Cavalry wore seen advancing in a rapid trot to the area: their ranks were in disorder, and 011 arriving within it, thev halted to breathe their horses, and to recover their ranks. A panic seemed to strike the persons at the outskirts of the meeting, who immediately began to scumper in every direction. After a moment's pattae the cavalry drew their swonls: ii| K) ii which Hunt and Johnson desired the multitude to give three cheers, to show the military that they were not to be daunted iu the discharge of their duty by their unwelcome presence. This they did, upon which Mr. Hunt again proceeded—" This was a mere trick to interrupt the proceedings of tho meeting; but he trusted that they would all stand firm." He had scar: elv said these words, before the Manchester Yeomanry cavalry directed their course to the cart from which Hi. nt was sjieaking. A bugleman went at their head, the 1 an ofiicer, and then came the whole troop. They whejled round the waggons till they came in front of them. After they had surrounded them in such a manner as to prevent all escape, the officer who commanded the dctachment went up to Mr. Hunt, and said, " Sir, I liare a warrant against you, and arrest you as my prisoner.' Hunt, turned round to the ofiicer, and said, " 1 willingly surrender myself to any civil officer who will show me his warrant." Mr, Nadin, the chief [ lolice officer at Manchester, then cume forward, and said, " I will airest you; I have got informations upon oath against you," or something to that effect. The military officer then proceeded to say, that ho, had a warrant against Johnson. Johnson also asked for a civil officer, upon which a Mr. Andrew came forward, and Hunt and Johnson then leaped from oil' the waggon und surrendered themselves to tlie civil power. Search was then uiade for Moorhonse and Knight, against whom warrants had also been issued. I11 the liurrv of this transaction, they had by- some means or other eoutrived to make their escape. As soon as Hent and Johnson had jumped from. the waggon, a cry was made by the cavalry " Have at their flags." in consequence, they immediately dashed at the flags. On the flags being seised, the Yeomanry were assailed with brick- bats, & c. This attack compelled them to act in their own defence. Hunt, Johnson, Saxton, aud some other individuals of minor note, amongst wh im was a woman, were escorted to the house where the Magistrates met, and put into a room. Mr. Ilay, the chairman of the Magistrates, came into the apartment, and asked Hunt if he was afraid to go down to the New Bailey ; if lie wu, he himself would accompany him, aud look after his safety. Hunt, who we forgot tp mention had received a slight sabre wound on one of his hands, said lie should have no objection to the Magistrate's company ; he certainly did not like either a cut from a s. ibrc, or a blow from a stalf. Mr. Ilay - shartly afterwards went out, having first made a reply to Mr. Ilunt, which some not out of doors prevented us from hearing. On casting our eves at the place were the immense multitude had lately been assembled, wc were surprised in tho short : sp< ice often minutes to see it cleared of all its former occupiers, and tilled In' various troops of military, . both horse arid foot.' Shortly after this had occurred, a Magistrate came into the'raom arid bade the prisoners prepare to inarch off to the New Bailev. Iltjut was consigned to the custody of Colonel IEstra'n of' the 31st Foot, and a dctachment of tile 15th Hussars; and under his care, lie and all the other prisoners, who were each placed bcUj'ecn f. » o constables, reached the New Bailey in jieffect safety. _ ' " " After these individuals had been committed" to the custody of the Governor, they were turned into one common yard, where the events of the day formed the subject of conversation. Knight and Morehouse, who had been taken a short time after them, were afterwards added to their company. About five o'clock the Magistrates directed the Governor of the prison to lock each of them up in a solitary cell, and to see that they had 110 communication with each other. This was accordingly done. Accounts ' from ' Manchester, up to two o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, reached tis last night. At that hour nothing had occurred of a nature sufficiently serious to disturb the pence of the town. Compared with the tumultuous proceedings of Monday, tranquillity might be said to prevail; but indications of a forced submission on the part of the populace;' of vindictive feelings suspended, but not suppressed, were too apparent not to'cause alarm jn those who carefullv observed their motions, and listened to their discourse. The military who had patrolled the streets during the whole of Monday night, were equally vigilant 011 Tuesday morning; ' they were judiciously employed in checking before they could become formidable, the first symptoms of riot and disorder. 5' Small parties of cavalry rode through the principal streets ; and if any of the populace were collected into a grc. ttp, they were immediately dispersed. The shops and the lower part of the houses continued shut the whole morning. The temper of the'Reformers, though thus prevented from displaying itself in action, was strongly manifested by an unbounded license of expression ; and threats of revenge, directed more particularly against those members of the Manchester Yeomanry who were most active in the alliiir of Monday, and who, by residing iu the towu and being well known to the disaifected persons, liecame distinctly marked out as objects of their hatred. The female part of the multitude were not less conspicuous than 011 Monday iof the share they took iii what was gouig on, and were even more bitter and malignant in their invectives than their male associates. New Cross, the place where the most dangerous noting had occurred on Monday evening, was taken possession of during the morning of Tuesday, bv companies of the 31st regiment of foot, who relieved each other in succession. An attempt was made by the very lowest of the populace to assemble there at tfie early hour of seven, but they were soon put to flight, and by nine o'clock every thing was tranquil in that quarter. A report ( which appears to have been spread with the view of diverting the attention of the military) was circulated early in the morning, that a large body of the disaffected, armed with pikes, amounting in number to 15,000, were advancing to Manchester by the Oldham road. A party of the 15th Light Dragoons, with two pieces of artillery, were immediately stationed in Oldham- street; and the Cheshire Yeomanry, who were previously 011 duty at St. ^ eter's- green, w. ere ordered to advance on the road to Oldham. This alarm proving to be unfounded, the troops and artillery were withdrawn by two o'clock.— The exertions of the soldiery, though fully eflec* tual in preventing any tumultuary ascemblages, could not, however, so completely guard against individual outrage. A butcher in Oldhain- street is stated to have boen attacked and desperately wounded in the head by a small party of tiie mob, and carried to the Infirmary, with little hope of recovery. One of the special constables, a watchmaker, was marked out for a similar species of re- 1 cnge. The latter was fired at by a pistol, aud wounded, but not dangerously. Mr. J. Hulme, the gentleman who fell in the first attack by the Manchester \ eoinanry, was still aliye when the accounts left the town; but the fracture of the skull which lie had sustained wa6 so severe, as to leave little hope of his recovery. Hunt, together with Johnson, and Moorhouse of Stockport, arc said to have heeii brought up for examinationon Tuesday, but none of'thetn are to be admitted lo bad-, and it was even circulated, though ou what grounds we arc unable to state, that these three leading Reformers were under commitment to Lancaster Gaol on a charge of high treason. At<> all events they still remained in confinement. At seven o'clock on Tuesday evening, all was quiet in the town. A report had, liowever, reached it that there was a serious riot at Oldham, aud in consequence some troops of the Chester Yeomanry were sent to quell it. I11 our road to Stockport, our attention was forcibly struck by the numerous groups of idle men, who were congregated together along it. I'hey appeared ready for any wicked or desperate purpose, and we hare reason to believe, that before the evening was concluded, they were cng. igeel in au attack upon the Magistracy of Stockport. About a mile from that place, some hundreds of them were assembled near a |> etty public- house. A new hat, a teakettle, and some other articles of little value, were displayed at the window, as is customary to display tlie prizes given at wakes or feasts in this part of the country. This was to serve as a pretext for their meeting together; but that it was only a pretext, we learned to a certainty during our stay at Macclesfield. On our entry into that town, aliout ten at night, we were met by several women, who flung themselves in the way of our chaise, and entreated us for Goil's sake not to enter it, as murderous work was going on within it. This . was not, to be sure, pleasing information ; but on consulting with our driver, lie said that there could lie no harm in our proceeding on as far as the Royal Hotel, which lies nearly at the entrance of the town as you come from Manchester. On arri ving there, our horses were seized by some special constables, and we were advised not to proceed fu rther up the town, if wc had any regard whatsoever for onr lives. Of course we took their advice, and tufned our horses into a yard, as they desired us. On inquiring into the cause of the anxiety which was depicted in all their faces, thev informed us that the Reformers iu their neighbourhood, irritated by the defeat which they had sustained tit Manchester the day before, had assembled in a body of 2 or 3,000 men, and had been committing the most abominable acts of vio'euee in different quarters of the town. In the market- place thev kid broken every window which, looked into it, and in various other places had done similar acts of atrocity. Thev were emboldened in their villainy by the knowledge that there were only a few military men in the town, and that in the custody of thoae men, were 300 stand of arms, and several thousand rouuds of ball cartridge. They were . ail, ho. vcvcr, jiersuaded to stand to their arms, and being aided by several resectable inhabitants of the town, assumed so formidable an appearance that the rioters thought it unwise to attack them. This disinclination on their part gave fresh courage to the friends of order and tranquillity ; aud in consequence they made an attack 011 the rioters, and took several of them prisoners. In the meanwhile, an express was sent off to Stockport, desiring " Jtat one of the three companies of the 31st, which had marched from their quarters at Macclesfield to Stockport, might be sent back to the former place, or else a company of the Cheshire Yeomanry' Cavalry, many of' whom arc inhabitants of the placc, might be dispatched to the assistance of their townsmen. Whilst this scctie was transacting in Macclesficld, it was said that bonfires had been lighted on all the hills which surround it, and it was surmised that these served as signals to the disaffected. The first lighted was on Blakenev- hil!; this was answered bv similar fires ou all the hills, from thence tip to Northern Laney, where itstopjied ; but at another signal, firerockets were thrown up front it. Whether there y^ as any meaning- in these fires or not, we ire unable to say, but shortly after they appeared, the rioters resumod tlie'jr attacks, haying first taken the precaution to extinguish all the BUS liolits " in the town. This was attended bv twofold advantage, inasmuch as it did not leave theinso ojxni to detection, and therefore gave them a lietter opportunity of continuing their devastations. Still, with all these advan? tages, they never durst meet the small but resolute band of special constables; who, tinder, the command of the Mayor, were everywhere ready to resist them,'' Some eight or nine gentlemen, who had nieunted theuisclveS op Horseback, and armed themselves with swords, Were of great utility in scouring tho streets and bringiiig in prisoners, who were immediately placed in the custody of the soldiers of the 31st Regiment. Wc are happy to say, that in the struggles between the two parties, 110 serious personal injury was done to cither of them. Some of the rioters got heavy LIows from the staffs of the constables, and some of the constables awkward contusions from the brick- bats hurled at them by their opponents; but no lives were either lost or endangered. When we left the town, which was at four o'clock in the morning, tranquillity was ( icrfectly re- establishedt; 30 or iO rioters were in custody, and the Gentleman who had gone with the express to Stockport, had returned with the intelligence, thirt, though a battle between the military and the rioters was momentarily expected, a troop of infantry had started from Stockport, aud were when he left them within an hour's march of Macclesficld. At Stockport the Magistrates were assembled at the Warren Bulkeley Arms, before which the soldiery were drawn out, as that was the first point against which the rioters had dtclaii. il their intention of making au attack. Similar. riots were expcctoJ at other places; almost all the military being stationed at'Manchester. C A U T I O N VGA I N S T HUNT. The following Placard was posted in the stmts of Manchester toward the end of last week, but soon torn down by some who did not wLih Hunt's character to be very closely scrutinized :— " TO THE FRIENDS OF REFORM. " There are diversity of opinions, at to the moons of effecting a Reform, and it behoves you to pause before you adopt the proposition of any one, lest that person should happen to be'' A l u b to amuse a Whale;' and by directing your i i n r h to his ideas, prevent the < otercise uf your outn. " I was led to this reduction by the regularity which nwrka your conduct, which has furnished your opponents with tnents against the wisdom and justice of vaur cause. They my, ' you embrace the cause of ropular and Universal Representation. and yet you pin your faith oh the opinions of » fwrnon uf whom you know little or nothing but what be chaoses to say » f himself.' " I do not wish to insinuate any thing against the character of your intended Chairman; but, wirtainly, there are wine suspicious circumstances attainted to his Connexion with your Cause. 1 would not by auy means have you treat him Hnkindly, but 1 would put 1011 011 your guard, st> a » to induce you to sutisfy yourselves that all is right, before you implicitly confide in him. In giving you this caution, I do not advert to bis private character, tor it is nothing to us whether he is a good husband ar a bad one; whether he does or do « 6 nut live in open Adultury with tbe wife of r. nother person;— though, to be sure, it would strengthen vour cause, if you could with truth boost of the virtue of your Leaders. It is nothing to you if he did make oath that he used nothing but Malt and Hops in his Brewhouse, or that, aitnost on the eve of the oath, he should stand convicted of uning unwligl*. aqme Drugs in the fabrication of the Beer which he sold to the inhabitants of Bristol;— for though he might be a little caraless in what he swjrt, he may be very conscientious in what he tayt lit yon; and, you know, you did not drink tbe beer which the law pronounced t ermcious. You must not therefore suspect him, bocause his private life is said to have been a little incorrect. 11 llut 1 must say, it behoves you to consider one thing in hw Public Character. He has repeatedly told you. that he will dovote his Fortune aud bis Life to the Cause of Reform ; and yet has he not given you to understand, that he expects to be reimbursed for the expense of attending your Meeting ? Really thw makes his Character doubtful; for the expense can be of little importance to Rim", If he Is what he declares himself to bo— Independent Man of Property and Kstate. However, wo should uot judge him too harshly on that account, for, as no bar* boen given to understand, he has not been immaculate iu his private life ; tie may have injured his fortune by irregularities, and it may be necessary for him to bave recourse to your generous credulity. ' But there is another point worthy of cool consideration, la absence he writesbo} dly, and urge* you to octivn and resistance; and yet when he speaks iii public, he ai\ ocntvcpeaceabletietntannw ami obedience to the laws'. This lool^ s like personal fear, if it is not double dealing. Is this the result of a white feather?— or, rather, hm be not some secret umlerstanding?

The whole of lost night, and for the entire of to- day, have the miads of the public been kept in a state of continued agitation, aud tlierc is na immediate prospect of its subsiding. Thin moruing about ten o'clock, reports having bees brought to the' town that a bujy pf 15,000 had assembled at Whiteness ( the place whgee the men drilled oo SunJar^ and were ttan oil their u>, ux- h to Manchester, armed wkl » fire- arms and pikes, tins military were i* stantly order*} out, and tho alarm became so great that ever/ jliop WM shut up, warehouses locked, & c., ar, d though market day, business. was completely at a staixl. Jt a|> peared that tbe report was false, but from it| forinatiou received, great oomliers are hourly exjiecteil. The towns of A'hton asd Middleton are com;> lete! y in the bonds of the Reformers ; and thera is little doubt some attemjit to rescue Hunt and his Junto, will be made. Newcross and the neighbourhood, as well as some other of the out- districts of the town, required the constant preser. ee of tbe militery, thty Constables being pelted, if they go alone. There are four persons dead, viz.— Ashworth, tlw constable ; a woman killed at the top of Bridge- street last night; a young man, unknown ; aud a person of the name of John A sit too, a Reformer, from nenr Old haw. Hunt and his crcw have been brought before tlie Magistrates to- day, but not examined ; they are rwi. auded until Friday. There arc 69 persons is tlie whole tairtn to the New Bailev since yesterday. There are also 28 in- patients, and 31 out-| ftitrtjhts at the Manchester Infirmary, besides many who bad their wounds dressed aud went home. The in- patients arc all very much ( EST it ACT OF ANOTHER LUT'TEXi.) We remain comparatively quiet, but we ate not . without anxious forebodings. It is yet uncertain what tiie ; Reformers will do ; whether thc, r discomfiture ou Monday w ill break up their nefarious system altogether, or whether they will rally for one desperate nnd decisive struggle.

We have received the following particulars from p « - seiijjers br to- day's Manchester Coach :— Hunt was alwut tOproeoedin his remarks, when a gfcat buse arose ia the Crowd, from the appearance of a body of ^ w< ial constable*, said to be from 300 to 4-( JO in number ; these attempted to make their way to th* scaffold, but were soon driven back— they coukl ndt idake tfce slightest impression on the assemblage, and rtttftd.— A Strong division of Cavalry now presented itself in the rear of the Police i they halted, and remained Stationary. This movement was soon observed by Hunt— and be immediately began to harangue those near the platform : ajpin telling them not to fear SUCH soldiers, and treuting theiu with much ridicule ; his hat war again freely circulated round his head, and a tremendous shouting cotuincneed a* all sides, intermixed with loud hissing against the Yeomannv The Cavalry l; ow formed closer together, and soon after coiMincnced a general charge ; opposition was useless— Humbcrspresented little in the way of c& staeie—- the mob were overthrown in ill quarters. Loud screams were heard — the cavalry proceeded in their course, bearing down al] before them. Hundreds were under foot, add trampled uw- i, as; l a frightful scene commenced ! The scaffold was speedily surrounded by troops, and strong divisions stretched themselves ia every direction, dispersing the multitude on a'.! sides. The cowardly incendiary Hunt, Was speedily intimidated— and roared out hrttilv tor protection ! The shocks made against the timber work of the scaffolding soon brought it to the ground, and with it Hunt, aud Johnson, and uiany other persons, amongst whom were some women, several of whom were dreadfully hurt- Hunt and Johnson were seized by one of the Manchester troop, and 3ome of the Cheshire Cavalry— th « v were dragged to a coach, and under a numerous escort, lodged in the New Bailey. At this period the horse were seeh in various places, driving the people down the nearest thoroughfares. Bricks were t1 ro vn at them in showers, and many were severely httrt. Oa » of them was shot in the head by a Refonner, ^ kho, it is said, pulled out a pistol from his breast: he is not lifely to recover. A gentleman of the name of Broadbent, in the Cheshire Cavalry, is also said to be dangerously hurt. In h » lf an hour, the ground was completely cleared, none remaining on it but the wounded, of whom there were at least ci jhtv, many of them in i very hopeless state. Very few were hurt by the sword, which was but little used : they were chiefly thrown down, and trampled upon. Carts, thaises, and litters were procured, and they were carried with all possible speed to their houses or to the Infirmary ; there were nearly thirty in the Hospital before nine o'clock. The town bv si* o'clock was nearly cleared of the nTultjtudes which iu the morning had infested it— except the district of Newtown, which was still a sort of rallying point for the disaffected.— About nine o'clock, strong detachments of military, marched in from various quarters, • ad it was now thought that the public peace was effectually seen rut; unfortunately it was not so: crowds assemt. fcd near the New Cross, and remained there til towards leu o'clock: the military were again asseaibled( RIOTOUS PROCEEDINGS FN COVENTRY. " COVENTRY, AUGUST 18, A nieeling of the Ribbon Weavers of this Citv took place, in consequence of tiie low prices paid for weaving ; and as an agreement Was, in 1817, entered into between masters and men to pay a certain price, which has at various times been reduced, the body of weavers inflicted what they deemed a punishment upon two individuals, who, they considered, had been the means of those reductions, by placing them ou an ass, and parading the streets, to the amusement of some, and the great terror of others, but not offering any violence to their persons. Extract of a letter, dated Coventry, August 17 :—• " Coventry at this time is in a state of confusion ; yesterday several masters rode upon donkies bare backed, for ii'it paving a fair price. Mr. was one ; another for keeping half- pay apprentices, while so many men are out of work. To- day ( Tuesday) it is supposed 1500 people wil' parade the streets with asses, in order to ride others. Several are in hold for the purpose. The people went round the ritv this morning, to compel all the hatids to strike till prices ai'e regulated. The general parade is to continue until then." Iu consequence of these proceedings, the Magistrates have been coiirjseited to issue the following notice :— C I T Y O F C O V E N T R Y.

We lav before Our readers, to- day, further accounts from Manchester, down to the latest period at which they could be received ia town. No fresh disturbances bad actually occurred, but they were exjiect- d. It will be seen, from what tookpla. ee at Macclesfield, that the Reformers are much disposed to make common cause with their Manchester brethren. The following are additional extracts of letters from the above placc. They shew the total stagnation of business and interruption of all ordinary pursuits, which are produced by these tumultuous meetings. EXTRACT o r A LETTER, DATED M / VNCltESTERj TUESDAY EVENINCii " It is unnecessary to inform you that business is completely at a stand. AH the warehouses and the banks have remained closed during the day ; great numbers continue to walk idly about the streets, and there is every probability of serious riots taking place during the night. It is stated several disturbances have taken place, and that three people have to- dav lost their lives ; some rumours state a greater number. We are iu a sad state, and kept in great agitation by the reports from Macclesfield aud Stockport, where it is said the riots and destruction of property are of a very serious description. Various turnouts are circulated of armed bands assembling in the neighbourhood, who threaten to make an attack upon tnis town after nightfall." Another letter, dated nine o'clock, states, " the buguhas this instant sounded, calling out the militarr again j a piece of artillery is placed before my door." As we predicted, the liberals arc beginning to ringtheu". doleful changes upon the transactions that occurred a Manchester on Monday. They lament those transactions, not as growing out of a sad necessity produced by crime and dehjsion, for in that sentiment every English' man, worthy of the name, would participate; but as a calamity produced chiefly, if not entirely, bv the precipitate zeal of the loyal. This is the way in which they think it tlieir duty to support the Government and the Constitu tion in this alarming crisis. The peaceable and well disposed, the constituted civil authorities of the realm, are to be aspersed, while the infatuated and daring agitators, whose not for a moment silence their petty aniulilsilirs, nor catch one spark of that manly, g<> tiei- iius, feeling, which would throw a veil over the excesses,' even, ( if stlch had been committed,) of men acting from the noble enthusiasm of real patriotism and undebanched loyalty. May not virtue and honour have their venial transgressions, in the eves of these Itberalt ? Or are they prepared to make a display of their factitious benevolence and their wllv candor,' oiilv when it is their task to palliate tfic intemperate violence bf the mob ? , ! That our readers may understand the insidious artifices to which we are more particularly allifciing, we subjoin the following passages from the Times and Chrmi^ lc of this morning. Their minor associates, in the honourable undertaking, the small- fry who babble in the same key, we leave to the enjoyment of hearing their own pop- guns go off. " It appears by every account that has yet reached I. diidon, that, in the midst of the Chairman's speech, rvithin less tiivniy minutes from the commencement of the meeting, tbe Yeomanry Cavalry uf the town of Manchester charged the populace sword in hapd, cut their way to the platform, and with the police at their head, made prisoners- o f l i e s r and several of tlid. se who surrounded h i m . " — T i m s. ' It docs not appear by any of tiie accounts, that the cavalry cut their way lo the platform They certainly open-' cd to themselves a passage, in order to protect the civil [ lower in the discharge of a duty which they had to perform, and we all know how easy it is for two or three hundred men on horseback, to make such a passage, tlnough a body of unarmed persons on foot, without the use of the sword. The fact is, not a blow was struckr, till afler the arrest of HUNT and his gang. That some of the mob may have been injured by the consequent pressure and confusion, is extremely probable, though even this fact is not vet upon record. But it sounded better, and answered better the purpose in view, to represent the cavalry as " cutjting their way". " Such ore tiie facts: we do not absolutely afiirm that they cannot be defended, but wc are still to seek their justification, not indeed in the newspaper descriptions of certain mottos inscribed on flags, ( however foolish and inflammatory)— nor in the display of a cap of liberty, the model of which is borne before the Sovereign of Great Britain, when he meets his Parliament."— T i m e s. 1 he Sword of State i3 also borne before the Sovereign when he meets his Parliament, and he wears his Crown, likewise, upon certain solemn occasions. Yet if these insignia of Royalty were to be usurped by a subject, or by any riotous assembly, we apprehend they would amount to Overt acts of treason. We do not say that carrying the Cap of liberty is one of those acts; we only adduce tiie above parallels to show the stupidity of tbe argument, that because the symbol is carried before the Sovereign, therefore the same may be lawfully ernployed by his subjects. The supreme authority can be denoted in no other way titan by external maris of distinction; but they cease to lie such marks the moment they are adopted by any other persons than those for whom they were devised. Seditious iuscriptiocs, too, borne upon flags, " furnish no justification." Vr hat would this simpleton say to a banner with the words " Down with the Monarchy ?" They would be.., merely " foolish and inflammatory." " H'/ uitixer ntny have fcen the jTeKrninary or accefborg circumstances connected iuith that assembly, sink to nothing before the dreadful fact that nearly a hundred of the K i n g ' s unarmed subjects have been tabrtd by o body of c a v a l r y . "— Times. Folly and falsehood— The folly is so glaring that it needs only to lie read, to In laughed at. It is saying, in so many words, that nothing whatever, no, not even actual treason, or incipient rebellion could justify the dispersion of the meeting in the way it was disjiersed. We never saw so much profound nonsense; in so small a space. Then comes the falsehood in the shape of a " drSadful fact." There were not " nearly a hundred persons sabred." Mary of those who were wounded received their wounds from missiles ; others from being trodden down. But here again, it was desirable to represent the cavalry i: i a sanguinary light First, they cut thtfir way to the platform ; and then, as might have been expected, if ill. first had only been true, they sabred nearly a hundred persons. Thus much for the Times, vVhich finishes its Sccdiiiit with the following laughable declaration :— ' " Yet we pronounce not a linal opinion upon this momentous j proceeding. We have begged for information rather than iUtered a decision ! ' /" What we have quoted, we suppose, are merely jocose speculations. Its decision, when it does come, wiM be Very curious, we should think; Now for the1 Morning Chronicle, a fellow labourer ift t'ne same good cause. And first of all, we must premise, that the Chronicle would have been for letting the assembly " expend itself in vapotlr, as it would assuredly have done." How does the Chronicle happeu to knowthls ? The writer Of this nonsensical paragraph, sitting at his desk in- London, nearly 200 miles from the spot where the meeting was held, assures its readers that 50,000 persons, called together by a seditious demagogue— marching to the ground in compact bodies of four or five hundred at a time, armed with sticks adapted to receive pike- heads— which pike- heads they probably had about their persons— preceded by banners, bearing the most sedit ou inscriptions— and inflamed by previous exhortations of every kind.—- The Chronicle, we say, in the plenitude of its wisdom, very gravely asserts, that such an assemblage of persons would have separated peaceably 11— And why does the Chronicle say this ?— Because, if it can catch hold of one believer in its dictum, that believer must agree to the- consequences, that the calamitous events of Monday are solely to be attributed to the Magistracy and the loyal inhabitants of Mauchcs ter— not to the disaffected. And this is precisely what the Chronicle wishes to inculcate. With all deference to this oracle, however, we must beg leave to think that the Magistrates and people of Manchester, who ware, on the spot, were better judges of what was likely to ensue, than the writer in question who was quietly tented in London ; " In. the caseofM; Meetings for iteform throughout tlx couk- ' ry, we can see nUSSlg^ wkirli " HUM except them from the ~< lt which we'have'ini'iioiuu."— ifjr'/ iiiig ' Ciirohlle. The rule here alluded to as having . been laid down, is one from which tVe shall certainly tlVvar be found to dv sent. It is, that the people of England have a right to rtieet, aild deliberate upon tlieir grievances, w i t h e r real or imaginary. \\' 4 admit, it. They have this right, ahd we. fervently hope they will never lose it; Bui the nation, collectively, has its rights also ; the Throne lias its rights ; the Constitution bar, its tights: and. as no ma;' hat d tight to do any thing vVhich may prejudice the rights of other men, when the Chronicle sfews r- S that the proCetdinfss of' the Radical Reformers, do n- t affect or ettmprdinise tiie rights of the people at large, the rights of the ThrOne, arid the h'glite tlf the Constitution, then we will say, thev Have a right to mtet, and Continue to dt> what they have bbeu doiiig for Sdme months past. But not till then. Is it to be endured for an instant, that d set of vagabcinds, under the pretence of meeting to Cuerelse a ' constitution*! right, shall have the power, ttt their ow n go( s>. l will and pleasure, to assemble thousands of disorderly persons, keep krge towns, and whole districts, in a state Of agit ition and alarm, interrupt trade, check the course of daily occupation, and by drawing the labouring classes from honest industry to sedition, prepsre the way for revolution ? Suppose HUNT and his erevr had chosec to announce a meeting once a- week at Manehester, ami the cobbler PRESTOS, or some stick worthy, announce a Similar proceeding for London, and Other apostles of sedi - ion adopt the same course, hi other parts of the country Are these things not to be checked? Is this the practice of ihe British Constitution ? Could any Government on the face of the earth, subsist tinder such a system ? Yet for all these consequences the writer inthe Chronicle is prepared, if he understands his own meaning, whidi we doubt when he says " it ii better the people should gite free yent to their feelings, than that tliey shotild be obliged to suppress them." It is a j^ reat pity, trulyi that such feelings as HUNT and his Associates have been in the habit of giving vent to, should be suppressed. • Good Heavens!" exclaims tbe Chronicle, whk a ch& rro.' tig shudder, " Good Heavens! Ti> order regiments of cnrslr^ li charge an unarmed and peaceabig multitude, to heto down uStd tramjtle on all who stood before them 1 Can this be possible > No ; it is not possible. TH » statement is grossly false. We use a strong expression, for we feel a strong indignation at such misrepresentations at a period like the present, and upon an occasion 6uch as they refer to. The Magistrates gave no orders, to " charge an unarmed aud peaceable multitude", to heUi down and tramjJe on all who stood before- them." Shame 1 shame I If you iiate the Government, respect your country, and do not be among tit? foi- emo « t of its traducersi The fact is, and it is notorious, oo'i mijht, therefore, have been known to aoy impartial journalist, that the cavalry were riot employed at all to disperse the meeting its tho first instance. Warrants hail been issued to apprehend H u x f and Others. These were entrusted to the civii officers to execute, and the cavalry moved towards the mob to enable the Cieit Pcncer to execute a cwil process. The mob insulted the military ; threw stones, and other henry misiilea at them ; pistols even were fired i but the military did not fire in return ; it was only towards the evening, and in a diffefeiic part Of the town, that the soldiers were at laBt compelled to fire or be. sacrificed by art infuriate rabblo.

It b a n g gwierally known, that this unfortunate young man was to undergo his final examination yesterday, and that his wife was sufficiently recovered from her wounds to be able to attend and give her deposition, a great concourse of people was collected together in the Guildhali- yafd, as early as ten o'clock in the morning, and before eleven all the avenues to the justice- room were so completely stopped up as to render it very difficult for the officers in attendance to open a passageforthe admittance of those whose presence was required. The office itself was crowded to excess with persons of respectability of both sexes, immediately after the doors were opened. Mrs. Stent, accompanied by her father and sister, arrived in a coach from the hospital, about a quarter before eleven o'clock, aiitt were permitted to remain in the Magistrate's parlour till their presence was required. She is short of stature, about 26 years old, light blue eyes, small nose, and fair complexion. She looked remarkably pale, her voice and maimers remarkably mild and fascinating. The ^ prisoner, Stent, was conveyed from the Compter in a coach, in custody of llirdstteld, the officer, accompanied by his cot/ sin and Mr. liryant, a friend of the family, and alighted at the office exaclly at twelve o'clock. The sitting Magistrate, Alderman J. J. SMITH, arrived only a few minutes before him. Henry Benwell, Esq., the house- surgeon at Bartholomew's Hospital, was then examined. He stated, that Maria Stent was brought to the hospital between six and seven o'clock on the evening of. Thursday. the 5th of August inst. ; he sew her directly; she was very faint and cold, but perfectly sensible. On examining her, he found she had received several wounds; there were three on her neck and right breast, one on her right arm, one on her right side, and one on her left thumb. One wound oil the neck had penetrated the windpipe, and that on the side had pene- . trated the right lobe of the lungs; from this last mentioned wound she bled most profusely. This wound", and that which had injured the windpipe,- were the most serious; the others were small and - of little consequence. He at first apprehended considerable danger ; Mrs. Stent, however, continued getting better tiU the Sunday morning following, when he was called up at seven o'clock, in consequence of an attack of inflammation on his patient's lungs-; from this., however, she had now recovered : the wounds were not yet perfectly healed, but he considered her now out of iXinger. He had not' seen the knife with which the stabs were given, butffrom the appearance cjf the wounds they must have been made bv a < h'arp instrument. Mr. H ARHEIV, the prisoner's Solicitor, declined askir. gthis witness any question. Xhe depositions. of Thomas Turner, the porter, George King anji Thomas Pithouse, waiters at the Saracen's Head inn, were severally- read over, signed, and sworn to, and the parties bound liver i-, recognizances of 401, each to attend and g t f e evidence on , the trial. Mrs. Stent whs then introduced, and accommodated with a chair at thedesk near to the Alderman. She was dressed in a blue spotted cotton gown, with a shawl over hcrshoulders. and, wore a black poke bonnet, nearly concealing her face; from this- circumstance, . and her continually holding her head down, very few or' the spectators were gratified by a view of her countenance. '. " • Alderman S- JITJT addressed her with great feeling, arid informed her it was necessary she should be sworn, She replied very . mildly but firmly, " Very well, Sir." The oath was then administered. She then stated, in answer to the different questions put by the Alderman, that she was the wife of ' the prisoner { that she arrived in Loudon from Liverpool on the day i i question ; that, she wrote » letter to her husband, and that be came to her at the Saracen's head, about six o'clock in the evening. In answer to the question, " What happened after her ftUKbmvi arrived," she replied very distinctly, that she was so ttgion- seeing her husband that she cduld recollect nothing a f tv she saw him, till she found herself undressed in the hospital. In giving this evidence, she was particularly guarded in not saying t o o ni'. tch, making no extraneous observations, but confining her answers strictly to the questions, and frequently giving them in a stngle word; as, when ' asked how she found herself when she came to her recollection, she replied, " Wounded." When asked, " Where?" she said, " Principally in the neck," She persisted, when re- questioned, that she had no recollection of any thing that passed in the interview with her husband. " Mr. HARMBII seemed satisfied with her evidence, and declined asking her any questior. s.- Mr. Alderman -- SMITH, addressing Mrs. Stent's father, whose • name is James Beecher, said, much as he might regret the circumstances, a serious crime had . been committed ; and it was necessary some person should b e bound over to prosecute. Mrs. Stent, being a married woman, could n o t ; the nearest relation was the party generally looked to ; and- as he stood in that relation, he wished to know if' he was willing to be so boundover. Mr. Beecher replied, if it was necessary, he was very sorry for it ; il was a most unfortunate business, and he had no wish to pursue tbe husband. Mrs. Stent, bursting into tears, laid her hind on her father : arm; and said in a most beseeching tone, •• Don't you. father." Mr. Harmpr, to whom the father seemed to look for advice, said, " You have your option." On which Mrs. Stent said still more earnestly, " Then, don't you, father." On which Mr. Beecher declined to be bound over. Hirdsfield, the Officer, Who took the prisoner into custody, was then bound over as the prosecutor. - K r . Beecher was then asked by the Magistrate, if he would ent e r into'recognizance for the appearance of bis daughter ; he replied he would be answerable for her forthcoming. Mrs. Stent was permitted to withdraw into the parlour with her father and sister. Shortly after, Mr. Harmcr brought a request from her to the Alderman, to be permitted to see her husband for a few minutes before he was sent back. Mr. Alderman- S>: mr said, he could not refuse such a request only on accoust of the agitation it would occasion to both of ther". Mrs. Stent again begged for God's sake to let her speak to h" m for a minute. " The Magistrate said it was painful to deny . her, but he thought it would be too much for the feelings of both of them ; but she should have permission to visit him at the Compter, with which she appeared more content, and shortly afterwards • retu- ned in a coach to the Hospital. The Alderman addressing the prisoner told him, it was the opinion of his solicitor, that he should not say any tiling in his defence at present. The Magistrate had every regard to his feelings in the painful situation he was placed, but he must be cammitted'for trial. His wish, however, to remain ill the Compter, until the sessions commenced, should be complied with. The prisoner then bowed respectfully, and was removed from v the bar. During the whole of this painful examination, the prisoner maintained his usual composure, which was not in the least altered on the appearance of his wife. The only period at which he showed any agitation was during the reading of that part of Pithouse's evidence, w here he describes the affecting conduct of Mrs. Stent, while being carried to the hospital. The Prisoner had been much affected at tlie time this evidence was given originally. He expresses " no further resentment against his wife, but desires never to speak to her or see her again, and wished the officer to let him stand down while she was present, that he might not be forced to see her He was very respectably dressed in an olive brown coat, clean white waistcoat, grey trowsers, and shoes, and looked in remarkably good health. LAW REPORT. CO B U T OT C H A N C E R Y , Au^ sr IB, THE RIGHT REV. THE BISHOP ( W E- LY V. LORD KIN'S. The L o a n CHASCM- LOR took his seat this morning soon after nine o'clock. He stated that he had looked into ail the papers and affidavits in this case, which came before him oil the application of the Itight Rev. Prelate, for an Injunction, to restrain the Noble defendant from erecting a building immediately behind the episcopal mansion in Dover- street, the bill alleging that the said mansion would be rendered darkand uncomfortable. On thejother hand, the answer alleged, that no such effects would be produced by the proposed building, as there, would be a space of 19 feet between the two places, which was two feet more than what was thought necessary by a former decision of the Court, in the time of Lord Hardwick. In supportof the allegations on both sides, a number of affidavits had been fired by the parties. He was certainly of opinion, that the Bishop of E l y had acted very properly in bringing this case before the Court, he having only an interest in the mansion- house during the time he remained as Bishop of the See of Ely, and was bound to preserve { he property in such a state as would not give his successors any ground of complaint. The affidavits, however, m'suportof the bill, were not such as to justify him in granting the Injunction. The building was not begun, but was merely about to be erected, and of course it could not yet. be considered a nuisance of such a nature as would induce the Court, to interfere. The, Court, in granting Injunctions, had no authority to act merely because a nuisance was apprehended ; but grounds must be shewn that a nuisance had already been created, and then it would interfere. In the progress of this building there might be such a great inconvenience occasioned as would render an application to the Court extremely proper; but if it should be thought necessary to do so, it must be on new affidavits. He would suggest to the parties the propriety of their coming to an amicable arrangement on the subject, as this was the most junction, no sufficient grounds being of the Court. shewn for the interference Motion refused, The Court then proceeded, at half- past nine, to h; ar bankrupt petitions, which occupied the whole day till two, when he was specially summoned to attend a Cabinet Council. SURREY ASSIZES, CXOYDOX, AUG. I' M r . JOHN K E M B L K . — A S very little r e s p e c t i n g tliis eminent individual has been publicly noticed since he closed his brilliant professional career, we are persuaded the following, circumstances will interest our readers. Mr. and' Mrs. Kefnble.— for they have no family, have resided for about a twelvemonth past at Toulouse, in the south of France. The climate of this beautiful town is warm, and the air soft and salubrious ; so that Mr. Kemble's health has been better since he chose it' for his abode, than during many years before he left England Th- a society also, is elegant aud select; many of the less opulent of the French nobility, savaus, artists, md others of the politer classes, having chosen Toulouse as their residence, in preference to mare fashionable but more expensive cities. Here Mr. Kemble enjoys his well- earned and honourable leisure in entire conformity with his habits and taste. In the earlier part of the day, he employs himself in the cultivation of his literary pursuits, in which he probably finds, a more pleasing though less stirring enjoyment than in the brilliant exertions ho has relinquished. ! i e { Kisses a few hours iii the middle of the day in ' exercise on " horseback or in his carriage ; and hist- vonings are generally spent in those delightful couversazzioiies which we suspect " they manage best in France."— Once a week he . gives an elegant dinner,' after the hospitable fashion of England; which is probably regarded even by tlie splendid society " i:. ito . which it has been introduced as no very barbarous innovation. Mr. and Mrs. Kembieare at present at Bagneres, romantically' situated near the Pyrenees, and distinguished for its baths, but propose to return to Toulouse for the winter. At the latter city, Monsieur i dma and Mademoiselle Georges were performing a few weeks sinctf. and had the honour of the great English actor as their constant auditor during their stay. Upon these occasions, with the politeness of their nation, and ihe affectionate respect so eminently dqe to their distinguished visitor, these: admirable performers, altered the whole of their. situations in the scene, in order to address their acting more especially to the box in which Mr. K'emble was seated.— These particulars, though minute and unimportant, we are sure will be received with pleasure by those whom the taleiits of this accomplished actor delighted, and who will . rejoice to learn that the honourable tranquillity of his age so well harmonizes with the brilliancy of his loiigpublic career. Reckoning the time that has ela]> sed since, his departure, Mr. Kemble is expected to be absent about three years from England, during some portion of which period he proposes to visit the classical regions of Italy. William Wightman was charged on two indictments with feloniously stealing from tha Excise office a considerable quantity of hooks and papers, the property of the King. The prisoner's mother was also indicted as a receiver, but, under the peculiar circumstances of the case, the prosecution as to her was humanely abandoned. It appeared in evidence, that the prisoner wfc a elerk in the Excise- office, with a salary of 1001, per annum- . Ujording to the practice of the office, " all papers, books, an ® > o< fchers, concerning the Excise revenue, are kept for about, tb >^? ears, and then sold as waste paper, the proceeds beir. g'carrietfT ® the public account. It happened, that in one of the departments it became necessary to preserve some of these documents a much longer time, and they had been locked up for several years, when the proper officer having occasion to refer to them, a very large quantify was missing. Suspicion falling on the prisoner, his lodgihgs were searched, and m different places of concealment were fouud about 601b. weight 0/ the Office papers and books, which, it appeared, he had purloined for the purpose of sale on his own account. Proof was given that for two or three years he had been in the habit oi1 selling the Excise- office papers to different tradesmen. The case being clearly made out. ho was found 4t.- H. Tr on both indictments, and sentenced to seven years' transportation, M U R D E R O U S A S S A U L T. Gideon Yates was indicted for assaulting Wm. Coleman with a case knife, on the 6th inst., with intent to murder him. Tha Grand Jury had thrown out a bill for a capital offence, " under Lord Ellenborough's Act, and by their directions the present indictment was framed. It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor, who was confirmed by two" other witnesses, that the defendant lodged with his wife anil child iu the prosecutor's house, Clarence- house, Borough- ruad; About half- past seven in the evening of the 6th instant, the prosecutor came home from his workshop, and found Mrs. Yates upon the stairs, crying and desiring her husband to let her into the apartment where they lodged. The door of the room was locked, and the defendant' did not pay any attention to her ^( gquest. The prosecutor having his own affairs to attend to, employed himself till about ten o'clock. III the interval the defendant's wife still remained. oil the stairs, in great distress, beseeching her husband either to let her in, or allow her to have some clothes, that she might go and find a lodging at her brafTiCr's house. About ten o'clock a person named Fife came to see the defendant, on some business, and he weut„ up stairs to tho door- of the rooui, but the latter refused to let him ill. The prosecutor, availing himself of this opportunity, went to the door, and ret. ested, in mild- and civil terms, that he. w- ould let his wife in, hinting at the cruelty of keeping her out all night, and turning her into the street without any clothes. At first the defendant made no answer. Upon which the prosecutor went on and said, that if the door was not opened he would open it himself. The defendant then said, " I f you do, I'll plunge this knife into your b y heart," or " b - — d heart."— the witness could not recollect which phrase was used. Tile prosecutor. put bis foot to the door, and being ill a very frail condition from the violence of the defendant some days previously, it flew open. The defendant immediately presented himself with a case- knife in his hand,- and made a lounge at the prosecutor's face with it. The knife struck on the top of his head, and inflicted a deep gash. A scuffle ensued : the prosecutor closed with the defendant, and before he could extricate himself and arrest the murderous progress of the assailant, he received three other severe wounds— one in the neck, a second upon the side of the head, and the third in the breast. At length, having got the defendant down upon his back, he wrenched the knife out of his hand, when a female neighbour, alarmed by the cry of " Murder," came in and got hold of the knife, so as to prevent further mischief. During this sanguinary conflict, Mr. Fife ( a tailor by trade) remained a quiet spectator, aud although called upon by the prosecutor, whilst weltering in his blood, to take the knife from the hand of the defendant, be very discreetly looked on until the more gallant spirit of a woman came to the assistance of the unfortunate prosecutor. The defendant, in the scuffle, received some bruises, and after he was taken into custody and brought to the watch- house, he was taken back to sleep in his own bed, under medical advice, the surgeon who attended being of opinion that his situation required such indulgence. The defendant, who was without Counsel, cross- examined " the prosecutor and his witnesses with a good deal of vehemence and ill- humour, but he was unable to shake their evidence in any degree. The Jury, after retiring for about ten minutes, found the defendant Guilty. Mr.. Baron'GARKOw, m passing sentence, told the defendant he had reason to rejoice that the Grand Jury had thrown out the bill for a capital offence, which they probably would not have done had thev known as much of the case as was now disclosed to the Jury ; for, had he been convicted upon such an indictment, he must inevitably be left for execution. The sentence of the Court was, that he should be imprisoned in the county gaol for two years, and at the end of that time give security to keep the peace for three years, himself in lOCi. and four sureties in 25t. each. the otbcf artictes we « m Ms possession, « * e n taken rnto custody , they were identified in Court, by the deceased's daughter. Tne connection betweao K i n g and the other prisoner, Charlton, previously to the murder, was fully confirmed,, and various concurrent circumstances went to prove their participation in the atrocious deed When Charlton was arrested, four finger marks of blood wt.- e on his shirt. His declaration as to where . be slept on the night the crime was committed, was found tofte false. Du. i i g the whole of this trial the prisoners kept calling out to the witnesses, « That is a f a l s i t y ; " " It is false, S i r ; " " You rascal, how dare you speek such falsities ;'' " I may forgwe yon, but God will n o t , " tke. John King, in his defence, told a very long story, to the otTrct that he had come from Londou in a brig, and having by misconduct exposed himself to the danger of flogging, took an op • portunity of making his escape off Sunderland; that ha had spent all the money he bad, 21. 8 « ., wandered in vain along the coast in quest oi" a situatiom, and renewed acquaintance with Tkomas Wilson ( Charlton), whom he had kivown be/ ore at sea; that he had been ashamed to beft young fellow as he was, and that he could procure no means of getting back to London; that on the night of the 16th of May he left the cabin soon after 10, and went to sleep for the night with Wilson, near the glasshouse, and awaking and missing Wilson, he got up and traced him, and saw him going into tne cabin ; he stood at some distance, and heard a noise within the cabin; Wilson came out soon afterwards, and gave him the coat, the watoh, the pistol, and the dagger- stick, and said at the same time, that he might take these, as he himself had plenty of money. Ho concluded his narrative with declaring his innocence, and rising on his - tiptoes, and striking his hand with groat vehemence on the bar, exclaimed, " May God knock me dead this i f c t a a i if 1 a » opt innocent!" Being asked if he had any witnesses, he replied, " That is one thing against mc j I have no witnesses, for I am a stranger in the country." Win. Charlton, who looked with a fearfully torvid countenance at his fellow prisoner, during the time he was accusing him of tho actual murder, said, he had only to say he was innocent. " Is it likely, my Lord, that I should commit murder for the property, and then give it all to him ? If I had plenty of money, why should I kill a man for the sake y f his little property ? What wili a man say— Oh, my Lord, what will not a man say, to save his own l i f e ? ( K i n g said, " It is truth though.") But if I am now to suffer under- this charge, I hope I shall meet the man iu Ileaven. He too said, he had no witnesses, and grasping his hands behind his head, added, " I have no friends or acquaintances here." Mr. Baron WOOD summed up the evidence. The ca* e was much stronger against King than against Charlton. Against ChaAton, at the same time, there were circumstances full ot suspicion. If they could not divest tho case of all doubt, it was safer to acquit. This, he said, not as giving an opinion, hut in order to call forth the most serious attention and deliberation on their part. Tho Jury retired at half- past two, and in half an hour returned a verdict of Guilty against both the prisoners, Charlton now turned directly to King, and said, " Are you not ashamed to have got an innocent n » an condemned? I declare am happy that I die innocent of what I suffer f o r ." King said, " I am innocent." Mr. Baron WOOD pronounced sentence.— You have boen con. victed of wilfutmurder, the most atrocious crime that can be committed. Y'our crime was accompanied with circumstances of great aggravation. With respect t o one of you, King, it appears that you were permitted, and at your own request, by the poor man to pass the night in his cabin. He had compassion on you as a distressed and wearied traveller : his humanity afforded you shelter and protection ; in return you murdered him. With respect to the other, there is very doubt that you wero both togother when this crime was committed. One would have thought that you would have been satisfied with taking the little property the poor man had; but your hardened and unfeeling hearts prompted you to take away his life also -. one of you had the inipudence to offer his property to sale sooq. afterwards, and it is lucky for the purp « ses of justice, that you showed so much impudence and audacity : the other was soon found along with you : the Jury had had no doubt of your being both guilty, and it is lucky for the purposes of justice that you have been brought to that place to receive your punishment., I recommend to you the most sincere repentance for your great and enor. uous crime, and to address youi supplications to God tiiat he may forgive you. Having thus admouishod you, it becomes my painful duty to pronounce the sentence of the l a w ; which is, that on Monday next- you be severally hanged by the neck till you are dead, and may Clod hav. e mercy on your souls, Charlton, looking up towards his Lordship with a terrible smile, said, " I shall face my God with a clear conscience." Mr. Baron WOOD.— The Jury have had nodoubt of your guilt, take them away. K i n g called in an angry and imperipus tone for the things which they had taken from him; theu struck his fist with violence on the bar, and said, " Give them up here ; I must have them." He then turned towards the Jury, and repeating hisvioleut stroke on the bar, said, 11 S l a y God sink and destroy you all, yo villains. Yes, you are all villains aud rogues." W'hile he was going on thus, he was forcibly taken away. Jt is impossible to give any* idea of the horror excited by this exhibition. THEPLA& iSE.

C R O W N C 0 U R T . — M U It D E11. John King, alias David Henley, aged 19, and Wm. Charlton, alias Thomas Wilson, ageu20, were charged with the wilful murder of James Hamilton, at Bishop Wcarmouth, on the night of the 16th of May last. King, a tall thin youth, exhibited a desperate, careless, laughing countenance. Charlton, a squat, short person, had considerable cunning and daring 111 his looks. Mr. HOLT opened the ease to the Jury. This part of the country had not its character often stained with murder j and when murder occurred in it. it was always the deed of'vagrants, and persons who had no natural connexion with* the people; that was the case here. That a man was murdered, ayd murdered in circumstances of unexampled Barbarity, would be fully proved. — A s 110 eye witnessed the act, it would, however,' be impossible to oiler direct proof that the prisoners were the perpetrators. The evidence was of a circumstantial cliaracter, but it was such as claimed their serious attention. . T h e learned Counsel here detailed the evidence to be given against K i n g ; and in eourse of so doing, was repeatedly interrupted bv King, who said, " That is false^ S i r ; . y o u should not speak of i t . " The evidence against Charlton was different, but it consisted of circumstances so pregnant with suspicion, and so cogent in establishing his guilt, that they would probably satisfy their minds that he, " too, was concerned in the murder. ( The circumstances against Charlton were here detailed, and Charlton in his turn said, " That is f a l s e . ") The Jury would do their duty with humanity, but certainly with firmness. Mr. GREY was Counsel for the prosecution, with Mr. IIOLT. T h e prisoners had 110 Counsel. Thu unfortunate old man who was murdered had been watchman to the trustees of the Nswbottle colliery, anil regularly took his station; bv six in the evening, at a cabiu placed for his accommodation at iitaitb, by the side of the waggon- way. The depositions of numerous witnesses in this case established a chain of most indubitable evidence against the prisoners. It appeared, that in order to effect the crime, 1 K i n g hat! solicited to be accommodated, during the night, in Hamilton's cabin, which was hospitably granted, and ths next morning the humane man was found with his skull dreadfully fractured— his watch, pistol, & c. were missing; the watch had been sold, and traced to King, After hearing the above proceedings, wo have learnt some very extraordinary facts respecting Charltou. It wiil be readily recollected, that'in the winter of 1811- 12, a most atrocious plan was organized in Edinburgh for knocking down and plundering every respectaiile person that might be found passing along the more public streets on new year's night, a time of unreserved confidence and kindness in the Scotch metropolis. Numbers were severely hurt aud robbed; one fvatchman was murdered. Three very young men were afterwards executed as active agents in this outrage. Ft appeared in the course of their trial that tbe whole had been arranged and conducted by a Tlics. Johnson, whg had escaped to America. When Charlton came to Newcastle last spring he was at once recognized by a prostitute, who had been in Edinburgh in 1812, and addressed as Johnson. He contrived to impose silence upon her at that time, and would never see her again. In consequcnce of this circumstance reaching the ears of the Police Officers, they made application to tho Officers iu Fldinburgh for a description of Johnson's person. The description santsuited Charlton exactly. Some parts o f i t were striking, and almost decisive. Johnson had a scar over his left eye ; Charl ton has the same. Johnson had a particular mark on his l e g; Charlton has that mark. The age is no inconsistency. Charlton represented himself as 20 ; it is quite consistent with his appearance that he should be 23. Johnson was very youngiu 1812 Such then is the fatuitous and ruinous career of guilt. Johnson escaped to America, and left his associates to expiate with their blood the crimes he had planned. He returns again to Britain, commits another most ferocious murder near Sunderland, is taken prisoner in the low brothels uf Newcastle, and doomed to be executed at Durham, while he'and his associate in guilt and condemnation, mutually exchange the bitter accusations and recriminations of fiends. The Durham Assizes terminated at half- past four o'clock. Mr. Baron WOOD went off in the evening for Newcastle. Previously to his leaving Durham he reprieved all the capital convicis except Eden, Wolfe, ( whose trial and sentence for the murder of Isabella Young, servant to Lady Peat, we gave yesterday), King, and Charlton, who are to be executed on Monday. DURHAM, MONDAY, AUG. 16. E X E C U T I O N O F J O H N K I N G F O R M U R D E R, A N D R E S P I T E O F C H A R L T O N . When the above unhappy criminals, after receiving sentence, had quitted the dock, Charlton, outrageous at King as the supposed cause of his condemnation, knocked him down with such a tremendous blow, that it was apprehended he had anticipated the executioner; King, however, soon recovered, and it has been necessary since to keep them both heavily ironed. Yesterday moroing, King obstinately refused to go to chapel, but was afterwards prevailed 011 to comply with a recommendation so- becoming his awful position. On his return from the chapel, he called for Mr. Wolfe, and confessed that he had struck the blow upon Hamilton, and that Charlton had known nothing of it. Since that time he continued extremely dejected, and frequently sunk in convulsive fits. In the course of yesterday a repite, until the 11th of September, arrived from Newcastle for John Eden and James Wolfe, ( who were convicted of the murder of Lady Peat's female servant), ai) d William Charlton, the accomplice of King. The respite was communicated to these three fellons at eight o'clock last night. They were vehemently affected. James Wolfe fainted. The execution of King took place in front of the new gaol, a few minutes before nine this morning. The wretched culprit sunk in a violent fit as he was conveyed on a chair from his cell. While preparations were making in the Grand Jury- room, through which he was led to the platform, he never uttered a word, but surrendered himself to the most absolute dejection, liewas carried by two men to the platform, and upheld while the rope was adjusted. l i e died without a struggle. An immense crowd collected to see the pitiable spectacle. G E O R G E D O N, General. S I R T H S . " On the 10th inst., at Charles Bsgge's, Esq., Linden, the Lady ot Thomas Glyn, Esq., of a son.

But the child eating a considerable portion of the food in which he had put ail ounce of arsenic, died, and was interred, but after 14 days taken up again and examined, when the father was apprehended.' The mother, who took only a little of the fatal mixture, recovered, and the in tent to kill her fanned a second indictment.
