lmoortani accounts have l>een re
ceived this morning from Gibraltar
ami Cadiz. An express had arrived
at the former place, stating that the
yellow fever had made its appear
ance at Cadiz with great malignity,
and that not only the inhabitants of
i\m town, but the military in the
neighborhood, Imd taken the infec
tion, The letters from the Riitfsh
fortress are dated on the 2d instant
and they add, that immediate pre
cautions had l>een taken by the Gov
ernor to prevent all communication
with Hpain, and that a cordon was
to he established without delay. All
intercourse woulcf thus be interrupt
ed, unless the regulations of quar
antine were observed.
The dates from Cadiz are one
day later; and they state that the
fever had been brought by tlife Asia,
from Havana, where it has made
considerable ravages during the last
few mouths, Half the crow of tiia
Asia are said to iufeclcd ov dead
of the dreadfyl iu dady.
LIVERPOOL, AUGUST 27. !
The two Manchester .Magistrates
who Lad been deputed to London, ,
relative to the late disturbance in that j
town, had returned. A meeting of
the privy council had l>een held, and
die law officers called upon for their
opinion as to the mode of proceed- j
in? to be adopted towards Mr. lluut
and the other persons arrested but
tliey declined giving any opinion,
the accounts being so contradictory,
that they saw they could come to uo
decision until the facts were laid be
fore them by deposition u|>on oath.
The general opinion in England was,
that the Magistrates, although actu
ated by the best intentions, had j>een
precipitate in ordering the Yeomanry
to act, as the meeting, uutil that
moment, had been perfectly orderly.
It was rumored that Hunt was to be
discharged on bail. He had beeu
twice carried before tbe Magistrates,
but each examination was short, and
contained nothing in the least inter
esting. , - ?
august 25.
It was rumored here yesterday,
that Hunt and his companions had
been committed to Lancaster Castle,
on ch&rge of high treason.? -The
tumor is unfounded ; they are only'
remanded for further examination
ou the at>ove charge, and .it is un
certain on what day their final ex
amination will take place. All was
quiet at Manchester .yesterday,
i Macclesfield v\ as throw n into the
peatest confusion on Tuesday even
ing week. The riots commenced by
a great number of men and boys
hissing and insulting the respectable
inhabitants as they passed* This
was soon followed up by breaking
the window a of the Courier printing
office, the Post Office, the Hotel,
the Mayor's and several other gen
tlemen's bouses. A detachment of
the 51st foot came in the night to the.
relief of, tbe town, and the Maccles
field troop of cavalry arrived from
Manchester by a forced inarch, ear
ly next morning; since which, we
understand, no disturbance of mo
i L.a fmnimiuijl . 1

The latest accounts from Alan
cheater on Friday, we regret to say,
are far from satisfactory. They re
present the imputation of that town '
and its neighborhood as deeply in
censcd against the const ituted Author
ities, in consequence of (be conduct -
of tire Magistrates on Monday? and |
although the people abstain from any
violations of the peace, yet it is
known that their minds are full of
dangerous agitation. They impose
a greater restraint upon the expres
sion t>f their feelings, they shew
more reserve in the communication
of their opinions than Englishmen
are accustomed to do; they seem
t nxious to , know what is thought in
London and other distant places, of
the late proceeding* at Manchester ;
ami when any thing like a defence is
set up for the magistrates, they turn
away with indignation. Business is
not actually au?|*eiided| but it is car- !
ried on with less actM^ and frank- 1
ness than usual. Tite shops are j
all opened at their accustomed hours :

State of Ohio vs. the V . States 9 Court .
Tbe report, by private letters, of
the forcible entry of th? Branch Bank
of tlie United States at Chilicotbe,
and the taking therefrom, undercol
or of law, unwards of an hundred
thousand dollars, is fully confirmed
by the folfowiiig statements, copied
from Ohio papers. We wish this
drama, which has commenced as a
farce, may not have a tragical end.
The authors and a bettors of it have
much to answer for.
FROM TUB OHIO MONITOR, OF SFPT. 25.
? Ohio vs. United States9 Hank.
' By an act of the. ^Legislature of
j this stale, passed last session, it vv^
v provided, that, unless the I ranches
uf t lie U Killed States' llank, located
at Cincinnati and 1 liilicothe, cease
their o|ieratious hy the first 4)f Sep
tember iust. that a tax of utte hun -
1 dred thousand dollars ho levied on
th^ Bank ; and tfiat, on the 15th, the
Auditor of the State proceed to
charge the said Bank with the tax
aforesaid, and immediately tliereaf
ter to issue his warrant to some per
son to collect the same.
On the morning of the 15thinst.
Ralph Osborne, Esq. Auditor of
State, was served with a subpoena,
together with a bill in chancery, is
sued from the United States' Cir
cuit Court, sitting at Chilicothe, di
recting , him to, appear at the next
Jauuary terra of sail court, and an
swer to said hill of couiplaiut, .pray
ing that the Auditor of the State he
eujoined from proceeding under the
law of the General Assembly of
.Ohio, passed ou the 8th February,
1819, to " tax the Bank of the Uuit
ed States, &c."
On the same day the Auditor pro
ceeded to charge the Bank with the
sum of 100,000 dollars, and m*de
out his warrant, directed to John L.
Hai-per, commanding him to collect
the tax of 100,000 dollars of the
Bhnk of the United States ; 00,000
dollnrs uhereoi >\ as charged on the
Office of Discount and Deposit at
Cincinnati : and 50,000 doltars on
tlieir said office at 1 hilicothe.
Oil the 17tU mi. in the time of
banking hours, Jutln h* Harper pro*
ceeded to the office of the Bank at
Chilicothe, and demanded of the
Cashier (the President being present)
paymeut of said tax, which was re
fused. Under which, John L. Har
per, with two assistants, entered the
vaults of tha^Office, and took about
SO, 000 dollars in specie, and a cjuun
tiiy of bank paper, aqd withdrew,
lie then counted of the ^specie aud
bank paper a sum of 100,000 doU
lar?, and, finding a considerable
surplus of hank paper, be returned
to said office to restore the overplus ;
but, uot being allowed admittance,
he deposited it iu the bank of Chill*
cothe, a few rods east of the U. 8.
Branch Bank. During the transact
* tion, the President of the B|^k read
to Mr. Harper the sub|M?nir, which
we have before mentionsd was serv
ed upoo the Auditor of the State, as
Mr. Harper believes. i
, On the next day, a* Mr. Harper
was od his way to Columbus, lie
was served u ith a notice which he
supposed4o*be a -writ of injunction,
S anted upon the bill of complaint
ed against the Auditor to stay his
proceeding; but which Mr* Harper
considered not directed to him, and
therefore disregarded. He conveye d
the money to the $tate treasury 9
where it is now safely lodged, *
The sa e evening, prior to (he
depositing of the mpney' in the state
trenstfry, the Auditor was served
with an order from said court, bear*
ing date the 18th September, en*
joining him "from charging the said
Liank the 10th Sept. of the present
vear, and hereafter annually, w.iU
the sum of 830,000 upon each office
as aforesaid, and, also, from tnak?
ing out any warrant, or appointing
any person, or \ ersotis, to execute
all or either of the act of the legis
lature aforesaid ? or from levying and
collecting the tax aforesaid ? or from*
, paying over, by order ?r others isef
any moneys received from said taxf
which shall have beeu or may be
collected under said act, into the
treasury of the Btate 'of Ohio? or
from making report of the same to
the legislature aforesaid, in his gen
eral report of tlie receipt of taxes,
until the hearing of said bill of com*
plaint by said court/9 But the Au*
ditor, not conceiving that the general
law, regulating, "offices of the
Treasurer and Auditor" or the'spe
cial provisions of the act levying
said tax, gave him any further oon*
trol over t^ 5 said money, not being
sjiecifled said act to whom (he tax
should be paid, he gave no directions
concerning the disposal of the mo
I ney. Thus endeth the Jirst act t
