The mob as.embled, and attacked the workhouse of Carmarthen. We so. nex the details of this formidable outbrenk. Per. sons arrivin4 a: Carmarthen from the Pembroke road stated that the rioters were approaching to the number of several thusand, on horse and foot, with one redoubtable Rebecca at their head; about twelve o'clock this rumor proved unfortunately to be true, and they were seen approaching by the way of General Piton's Monument. ebout 900 being on horseback, with one in front disguised with a woman's curl's, to represent Rebecca, and from 7.000 to 8,000 on foot, welkin at out four teen or fifteen abreast. Every man was armed with a bludgeon, and some of them had plate's. At their head was carried two banners, bearing inscriptions in Welch, of 'freedom, liberty, and bettor feed;' and 'free toil and liberty.' Then they separated into two bodies, the one taking the way of Lammas street, and the other of Wa ter street; they thus proceeded, yeling and hoot. leg in the most terific manner. Upon their reaching the Guildhall square, both the parties joined, they proceeded to the workhuuse shouting out in Welch, and being joined by many of the Welch inhabitants of the town. On their reach • ing the workhouse they broke open the gates of 'the court in front, and having geined an entrance into the house, they immediately demolished the furniture, and threw the beds and bedding out of the windows. Fortunately, whilat they were thus pursuing the work of destruction, a troop of the 4th Light Dragoons, who had been seat for by express from Neath, art ived, but in such an exhaus- ' Ted state that two of the troopers' horses fell dead from excessive fatigue. One of the rioters seized the head of one of the soldiers' horses, and was cut titian by him. This excited fresh furyin the mob, and the yells tecarrie tremendous. The solo. diere, however, galloped through the town to the arse:thou:a, and having entered the court sew. d rd in taking all those within prisoners, about 250 to Lumber, during which time they were pelted with *thee, and other missies. The riot act being read, and a cry being raised that the soldiers ' were going to charge, the snob fled in every di ' rection, leaving more thait sixty horses, besides the above prisoners, in the handaofthe captors.— The Mayor and magistrates then assembled at the workhouse, and having examined the prisoners, they were most of them conveyed to the goal in the course or this afternoon, escorted by the mili tary and the special cmstables, another troop of horse having arrived previuusly to this time. Ac- cording to another version, the leading body con list. dof some thousands on foot, many of worn were Chartists and rabble of the town, a large number of women was amone the crowd, and men bearing infiamatory placards; these were fol lowed by a man in disguise to represent Miss Ree been: some bearing breams with which to sweep ; the foundations of the toll fpuses 'and the work h-uFe, and the rear brought u., by about 300 far.. mars en horse'tc n. Before the civil or military force cold reach the workhouse the rioters had attacked it. They chine.) over the high walla with which the building is surrounded, and then burst open the lodge gates and porter's door, the horsemen rode into the yard and surrounded the premises, and the rioters on foot soon forced an entrance into the building and commenced their work of destruction. An attempt was snide to rush upon the military; they were ordered to charge as the riders v•isliin the walk, (aboar .150 in number) were endeavor ing to e4cups, and the immense crowd were hem ming in the rime. The military. althoitzh jaded by a march of forty miles in the mor..ing,heneath a broiling sun, behaved very gallantly, and their activity and eriol-iess in capturing the rioiers,and dispersing the mob, cannot be too much admi red Cjitv".The Albany Argus, after collecting various instances of the difference of` the weatliar in air ferent parts of tho 'Union, in regard to dryness and moisture, remarks sensibly: "According to the usual lawa_of..nre-wifole court Possthlefilta Elerw'e - hace a famine 50 Il) g as ale cultic ition of the 9011 is otten led to L (teal and p trial scarcity may preys if. but what is the loss of one section is frequently the fran of some more fortunate santinn, When the North is pare - fie - d ivith draught, the We tnr the South is rcjoi:ing in fertilizing rains.

We learn from a respectable source. j that the disclosures spoken of in our paper of Tuesday, are in course of preparation, and that Mr. Craig will have them ready for publication in August or September, a• bout the time that the Gazette wants the country people to come to the rebcue of the blue noses. Ifa full report of the disclo. sures is given, it will have a great effect on the antimason-ie , ticket, and secure for Mr Craig and the gentleman who unbosomed himself to him, a wide spread notoriety.— The facts may not be as re salting as come mon rumor represents them, but if they are anything like as bad, Mr. Craig. great injustice to the antimasonic party by withholding them so long. This indiffer ence to the outrageous proceedings of the lodge is quite inexplicable to many of his antirnasonic friends, and has already crea ted suspicions with many of them, as to the honesty of his opposition to the "blood stained order." They begin to think that he, like some others who have mounted the antioaasonic hobby, only straddled it I fur the political importance it would give them, and new when it is sinking beneath the mountain of corruption that has been I piled upon if,he is unwilling to extend to it the aid that is in his power. This sus picion is strengthened by the recollection that he refused to advocate the antimason. is cause until he found that a majority of his subscribers were antimasons, and he never considered it a duty to oppose the lodge until it was evident such a course of conduct would increase the profits of his printing office. This suspicion miy do ins justice to Mr. Craig; he may have d ter mined to stick to ataimasanry to the last, and be politically botied. with it on the 2d Tuesday of October, t ut there is no de nying the fact that his apparent reluctance to make public the disclosures rs:erred to, has caused many to suspect that he medi tates treachery to the blue noses.

Fur the Post, Messrs Editors.—A writer in your paper of yes terday not only denounc.:s the Court for the exer cise of their di,cretion in tile matter of Tavern Licenses but asserts that no such discretion exists, and that 'every person applting as required by law, is entitled to license,' irrespective of such dis• cretion. Whether the Court erred or not in the exercise of their 'supposed discretion,' 1 will not underiske to say. I presume, however, that if they shall find a very great degree of misery and de-titution resulting to tl sir fellow—men, and to the wives and families of their fellow men, from the scarcity of houses fur the sale of vmous and spirituous liquors,* they will at the fit opportu nity license a sufficient number of such howes to restore happiness and pre:Terity. But as to the existence of a discretionary power in the Court, 1 think the following extracts from the law will sat. isfy your readers. Att sf Illh March. 1834. Sec. I.—The several Courts or Quarter Session+ a'd Mayor's Courts in this commonwealth, shall have power to grant licenses under their reap-ctive seats for 'Tay: ens or inns, to be kept by the vrsons applying flr the same, within their respective jurisdiction., and such licence may be a rafitcd ac(ording to the reg ulatinns and restrictions contained in this ac', and _ " Se n n. 3: :No Court AO license any inn or tav ern which shall not be ni.ceQsary to accomm , idato 'ht t eagie, and ente•tain stranzers or ravellers. keep en Inn or Tavern, unlessfrom—Thea.preriahln and certificate. or from their own knrwledgi , , or upon evidence eau ht fur and obtained, they shall be salisfitd of the fitness of the person applying, and i , f . the sufficiency or the ace , nurnociation s as aforesaid. *An inn or tavern in ssolikh liipors are nut sold, may be kept without license.
