From the A* Y. Com. Jidv. lrA in l *?* ; LA IK * T Flf. >/ JSJVfi LAXD. B\ iho arrival of tin* ship Hector, p'ftijii iu Gilleuder, from Liverpool, the editors of Lite Commercial Advertise) Imve received from th’ ir correspondents London pepeft to the tpth of April, #Dd Livei pool pap* rs to the 12th Uy this arrival we have news front Scotland, and from Spain, of an impor tant and painful character. It is stated that the disturbances in the west ol’ Ireland, which lately had such a menacing character, are gradu c.l!y* diirioishiug, aad there is every Jeusott to hope tranquility will eoou fce restored. This beneficial change has been protla ed, partly by the increased tirniness and activity of the local ma gistracy and gentry, end partly by the convictions which were obtained at the late Hos'oimuon aosrzes against several -of the ribbon men. tint far different is the situation of a part of Scotland. The Loudon papers of the 4th, F h, Ttb and Bth, are filled i? details of the diaaffe* ted at Glasgow ao i Paisley, and in all the manufactur in'; towns and villages for a dozen mile round. An address has been issued, urn widely circulated, calling upon the peo pie o*‘ England, I red ami and Scotland to c esc forward instantly, cud ‘effee bv f if resisted, a revolution in the f ‘liver.nr.ent ” This address professes to e subs - tbed by order of the committee ©forget, z-iiou for forming a provision l ;! government. One >f the injunctions contained i-- this address w..i. to abstain from l! ■work after tfcfirst day of April, and it has been implicitly obeyed. All lh* weavers ir. Glasgow uud its subtnbs, ate represented to have struck work, enc the streets were erowdad with then walking about. The weavers in Paisley and its neighborhood were said to have at so ce .set! from work. The colliers have struck likewise, as well as the cotton spinners, and some of the machine maker; and founders. Thus, Ike whole of (he mabiifaeturing population, as it by one simultaneous impulse, lied sus fended their labors. “Where, (the Cou rier asks,) will this infatuation end;- Jd!t ness must produce penury, penury starvation, andstarvat-ien rebellion, per haps. The military force stationed at Glasgow is formidable, and so far, u successful insurrection may nut be auti eipated. Gut the sword will not eradi cate corrupt principles. Blood may Dow, but it will aot wash out sedition from the heart. We must, as we have ui ways onteniled, cure the disease by operating in another quarter. We must effectually aud sternly silence the rank of seditious press, ao; when iull mum* ‘ory stimulantß are uo longer applied, the. maddening fever they produ t may be ex ected gridu.ly to debate.” The magistrates of Glasgow were prompt in issuing a proclamation, de claring the aSoveint-utioued paper “trea Conn ut"” uud warning the people “that ai ; measures in prosefuliou of such ob ject;, will he regarded as an insurrec tio •. iust the government, aud be in •r r. put dowu by the most prompt jtiiii; .ry execute in.” ne.exv.is already a strong mi l it my f >;e at ULsgow; Lut so threaluing were the appearances, that expresses had been sent to Edinburgh, and other pla ces for reinforcements, in eouseqheuce of this, the Sth regiment, from JEdiu b'j'-gh Castle, the 10th liussurs, from Piershill barracks, and three companies of the l3,ti regiment from Sterling Cas tle, marched instantly for Glasgow. The yeomanry cavalry, at various plates, w re ordered to hold themselves in rea diness to march at a moinem’s warn ing. A Glasgow paper of the 4th April, s jb ‘‘the tunes are perilous in the ex t . me. We do not exaggerate when we a /, there are, at this moment eo.ooo pe. sons in this city and the surrounding towns and villages, who have struck work; many of these, not a doubt re mains, have been compelled to join this ill gui combination by threats; such au immense hotly, however, cannot long re in :in inactive, if strong measures be ti instantly resorted to. it is impossible to s.ry when and where this mischief will end.” Abe regular troops and yeotnaurv continue to pour in ftom various guar ters; all is bustte and confusion; amt rati riy respectable families have left theit houses, fearing the consequences. Tht Loudon Courier speaks in very despond ing •• mgu ige liow, he says, this in il&iiiuidtory mass is to be b ought -ack. w.th s afety, into the social body upon tv.t,eh it uow hangs as a frightful ex i e-o-nec- we know not. We can only Ii >it nmy be effected. ‘i he prr vate letter i from Glasgow ant! Paisley, uro of to. most gloomy disc rtptioa. Bu ei e. ■ entirely suspended, ..ad, it is s’ a ail public works within to miles h been stopped, as uo laborers were found >o work: the few that shewt; t os. io i to return to tbeir uvoea* tions, were deterred by threats from the il .tug- At Paisley, several ef forts had been made lo get possession of ur as; and an attack on the uulitaiy was said to have been attempted fur that purpose, but rtv s dofriued. i iiem>*b cbta proceeded iu the {lead of the night to tbe country. Fevers 1 hooves were at fucked. One,thut of Mr. Kobertsou’s three miles from Paisley, was attended with fatal effects. The inmates of that gentleman’s house fired on the mob,and killed one man, but they still endeavor ed to force iheir entrance. After re peated firing, during which several ol tbe mob were desperately wounded, they retired. The body was conveyed to Paisley. Sodaring have tlieae people become, that they seize upon smith-shops, and manufacture pikes, aud other weapons} and they even drill oml practice military manoeuvres, near the towns, in open day- ) A letter from Glasgow, dated April 5, says, “affairs are growing worse, a party of vetrans who were escorting l* prison a man who was caught in the a.t of pulling down the governor’s prods ma’ion, was nearly murdered by.lb< mob, who made an attempt to reseue the prisoner. The corporal who com manded the guard, cautioned tbe mob to desist, but without effect; and finding themselves in perilous situation, firyd t vo shots, which, instead of having tho desired effect, only irritated them tofui* • her acts of violence, and at length the party were obliged to fire amongst them! which was the cause of a woman being severely wounded in the neck; she i9 co! dead, but her life is in great danger; upon which the w hole mob lkd # inhbe greatest confusion, crying out, “do not lire again.” ‘■l have this m- meat learal that r > general skirmish has taken place near Ivi'sy i ft. on the river Carruu, between a parly of about 60 radicals and IS hu strs, joined by nine of the Sterlingyeo manry, and utter several being wounded ou both sides, the radicals were routed, and 3 tme of the prisoners taken •were aonihicted to the gaol. “Eleven of the committee of the pro visional government h-ve been arrested here, and conducted to Sterling Castle- Hopes are entertaiued that the measures which are now taking, vvii; put a final stop to these dreadful pro ceedings.” ‘) here have been few latcdisturbanees as we learn in England. At Manches ter, however,the !o *al in tgistreleshave received information whi'-h justifies the adoption of the strongest prefe-u winery measures. The conviction of Hunt, and four of his associate-', hss filled tbe radi cals with alarm, and it is possible, thu from the impulses of desperation,, they umy attempt some guilty enterprise. lhe number of jurors summoned for the trial of I’histlewood and other con spirafora, amounts to 22? The num ber of witnesses also summoned, is 161. The names of witnesses and juror* are all given in the Courier. ) The same nigh’ a companV of gentje men were returuiug irom Midclletoif,and ou their way they were sm prised to tee a number of men, sitting under a hedge or wall, each armed wills a pike or spear and ntrar them was a quantity ol the same weapons, about 200 beeped on the ground. The gentleman who was sep arated from his cempaniors, took up one of tire pikes, and was proceeding to examine it, when one of tbe men struck him, and he was attacked by several others. At the same moment a number of persona, at least sixty, came over an djdiuing wall, armed in the same man lier The gentleman felt af aimed at bis dangerous situation, and attempted to make off:*—while doing so, a pistol or musket was discharged after him, the ball of which whizzed close by his head. In the meuntime, the rest ofthepafL were attacked and beaten. One named Tolson, received several pike wounds particularly ou bis ltftide, and is now under the cure of a surgeou.— Early the next morning, iiiformation was given te the magistrates, and one of trie men whom they were able to i dentify, a blacksmith, was apprehended and is now iti custody. George Charles Canning, aged 19, son of the'fann. Mr. Cauniug, died on tint Ist of April. The accounts from Paris are to the sth of April, and from Madrid tu the U7lh March, seven days later than were received by the Maria Theresa. There is no addiion&l news from France, ex cept two Royal Ordinances, the firsi appointing members of tito commission of censorship, and the second investing • erthin members of live council with tb. surveillance, of the censorship. The accounts from Spain are verj contradictory, and we begin to be appre hensive that affair* are not so tranquil as we have been led to supp se. The papers contain (from Madrid ofli ial Grazetts.) a series of dispatches addressed to the government, by gener al Freyi e, from the loth to the 15th ult.; itid also a eemmnnieuuon from the cap tain general of Andalusa to the iniutsier of the Marine, dated Cadiz llthMarJi relative to the movements in that quar ter. These documents are pubiishe.i as a “maftifestatfou of the anxiety of the govurumeut, to lay before the public all the details which it bus received rela tive to the deplorable events which have tnkeu place at Cud:z;” but so iar fion being wnat they profess to be, the mas sacre of the 10,h is scarcely noticed in general F. eyre, in a disputcu, datnl th iiJth ult. f oin Port St. Mary’s as loi iowsj—“The garrison of Cadiz, eve r faithful talus tit*j*enc 1 * ‘W the king! sad dispersed the papulae* which hud assembled in square St. A*- tonio, and who were shouting,‘long liv the couitiiutior!’ and thus tranquility UMiSTcM.-tjct/.'” He conclude* by suyiiu “the Krrffnn,and the battnlicn Leal tad arid thU of Gjuias, are still in an infu riated state; iheiuhabitauts regard then with horror.” The kitg haa-ianued orders to bring to prompt justice the authors ol this massacre.

The lit official despatch from gener al Odonojo, recently appointed captaiv general f Andalusia, dated Seville 23rd u!to addressed to the minister ot war, stiles, “I have the satisfaction to ouaounw. that the accounts which 1 have received although not official, ao certain, f iud they infoim me that th< ■onslituticaal oath has been taken at Cadiz, jrith becoming solemnity , anc celebrated by rejoicings.

I think it; would be met (here he heaved! a sigh to arrest the yourtg wine merchant.

Now this embryo partner, rhis steady young man. upon one hundred per annum,keeps a tilbury at the west end of the town, a groom also; e\jpry half price to the p ay; into no 66,5 t. James street oc- j casionally, and owes his tailor 300 pounds. This is done by representing himself as on the t eve of being a partner in the firm; by givingout to another creditor that he is going to marry miss Muckworm, with a large fortune; by doing a bill ocasionally in private, and un known to the firm; by making love to his washerwoman; by hinting at matiimony to Doll, each time that he borrows a pound of her, or that she up to let him in, at 3, 4 or 5 in the morning; by giving in telligence to young men when the old banker means to arrest them; by taking a douceur from them when they keep out ot the way; by treating his tradesmen with old Turnpen ny ’s wine, he keeping the key of the cellar; and by laying the deficit on a rat which he huntedf| through .he bottles, or brick which fell doWn, btjjfl which he really picks the arch and throws upon tna| empty ones. These and a number ingenious tricks have kept hnLj frt'in detection; but “ there ifi a tide m the affairs of and it is much to beapprehendj* ed that the storm will bursS| upon him ere the partnership! be entered into: for durts are” beginning tobe very clamorous jand the coachman is jealous k>f the clerk, and the washer woman is jealous of Doll; the groom haiioundout Thom?s* | real name, and where he lives, ; though he passed himself . ff ;for a Waterloo hero; and pre jtended to reside a little way in the country with his lady.?- ‘The arrears of the groom’s ! wages militate against his se crecy, and the livery stable keeper has threatened to sell the horse for his koep.
