 Market-place, Manchester. He was al.^o 

 proprietor of a newspaper, and became an 

 exile from his country, many year.-- a^o, in 

 consequence of the barbarous persecution 

 lie underwent for his expression of liberal 

 political opinions; this broufiht upon him 

 the vengeance of a churrh-and-kni;» mob. 

 Mho furiously attacked his house and pro- 

 perty. Several prosecutions for libel were 

 fnstituted against him ; from which, in the 

 fhen temper of the times, there was no 

 liope of his escaping; wilhout ruin. In the 

 result, he lost an independent property, 

 wliicli he had acquired by previous habits 

 bi severe industry and the clo-cst atten- 

 tion to biKiuess. 



CIIKStlinE. 



Mi.fiKCSTER, of Chester, haviiig been 

 very successful in curinz impediments of 

 speech, confirmed stulterine or stammer- 

 -injj, bad articulation or hcvitation in speak- 

 ing, has opened an eslablishmeut in that 

 cily expressly for the purpose. 



NinneioUsly attended meetings were 

 lately held at Chester and at IMacclesfield 

 to consider the propriety of petitioning 

 Parliament for the abolition of negro 

 slavery. After excellent speeches, replete 

 with iiiimane sentiments, petitions weie 

 ajj;reed upon at both places. 



A serious disposition to riot was mani- 

 fested within the month at Macclesfield, 

 by the operative weavers. No less a body 

 than 1,^000 men paraded the streets, and 

 for some time awed Ihe whole town. But 

 the exertions of the local cavalry, and a 

 S(piadron of heavy dragoons from Man- 

 chester, which was sent for, prevented any 

 considerable excess,— saveau attack which 

 was made on Mr. Powell's factory in Sut- 

 ton, wherein nnich damage was done. A 

 dispute with their employers, on the dura- 

 tion of work, was the causo : the masters 

 • conceded the point.

 finghanj lately resolved to petition botli 

 Houses of Pailiament against the renewal 

 of the oflious Alien Act. In their petition 

 was the following paragiaph: — "Your 

 petitioners deprecate the Alien Act as 

 accustoming the ministers of England to 

 the exercise of arbitrary powei', as abhor- 

 lent to the spirit of our institutions, and 

 as repugnant to the first principles of free- 

 dom, justice, and good policy ; and they 

 regard, with feeliuss of distrust and jea- 

 lousy, any power not defined and control- 

 cd by law, not accompanied with consti- 

 tutional responsibility, and which must, in 

 its very nature, elude the coguizance of 

 puldic opinion."
