CUMBERLAND. and WESTMORELAND. A luminous bar, or narrow stripe of light, was seen in the heavens about nine o'clock on the night of the 17th inst. over Kendal. It crossed the zenith, and seemed of equal length on each side from that point, forming an arch in the direction N. E. and S. W. of nearly one-fifth of the hemisphere in extent. This appearance much resembled the northern lights; and although it had no visible motion, it probably was a species of the Aurora Borealis. The stripe of light gradually shortened at the extremity, on each side, from the center, and finally vanished about ten minutes after it was first noticed.

A Yorkshire society has been formed, under the patronage of Earl Fitzwilliam, for educating the children of poor Yorkshire parents, residing in and near Lon don.

LANCASHIRE.

On the 7th, at a Town-hall meeting at Liverpool, an address of congratulation on the late events was proposed by Mr. ASPINALL, seconded by Dr. Crompton, and supported by the Rev. W. Shepherd, and Colonel Williams. Mr. Shepherd procured the insertion of a clause against the slave trade; but Mr. Yates failed in the introduction of a clanse urging a speedy negociation with America.

In the Isle of Man, the House of Keys, in solemn assembly, came to a resolve to forthwith repeal the law which, until then, afforded protection from arrest to persons seeking an asylum in that island; excepting, however, such persons as had resided there previously to this determination, for a period of not less than six months. Many fugitive debtors have in consequence left that place, to seek refuge from their creditors, elsewhere.

An advertisement has been put in circulation by a company of coach proprietors, in Manchester, offering to take inside passengers from that place to Paris for nine guineas.

At a general meeting of the subscribers to the Liverpool Institution, the Committee, in pursuance of instructions, submitted the following statement to the public, in addition to the resolutions already published:

NOTTINGHAMSHIRE.

Much irritation still prevails among the stocking-weavers in and near Nottingham, in regard to the existing remuneration for their labour: and it merits notice that a similar feeling has prevailed from time to time in that town during the last twentyfive years, or ever since money from the effect of taxes and war began to change its relative value. Surely some equitable means might be fixed on, by which to satisfy this branch of manufacturers. Why not appoint a committee of two or three hosiers and two or three workmen, to arrange a table of prices, by which every branch of the trade should, by fair labour, be able to attain support, and to regulate these prices from time to time, according to the price of the necessaries of life? We are not aware of any law which would prevent so rational an agreement, between the employers and the employed; or if deemed impracticable, we should be glad to lay the objections before the public. It is certainly of great importance to effect some arrangement which shall prevent the periodical recurrence of dissatisfaction and outrage.
