lYJLAAUU, UUU SUV til ell XllJlHtU.The “ Baron be Camin” at Manchester.—On Sunday night the “ Baron de Camin, formerly an inquisitor of the order of St. Dominie, in the south of France,” was announced to preach in the Free Trade Hall, Manchester. Baron de Camin’s assaults upon the Papists, are like the bursting forth of the devouring elements; and as it was expected he would make some unpalatable disclosures respecting the practices of the Roman Catholic church, a great number of Irish Catholics were present. The uproar prevented the preacher from proceeding, and the police at length apprehended one of the ringleaders, and to ok him nwav from the hall. A rush instantly took plan*, and the man was rescued. A reinforcement of police, however, came up, and the ringleader and six of those who had aided in rescuing him were safely lodged in jail. Several policemen were badly hurt in the affray, and one of them had to be taken to the infirmary for surgical treatment. The seven prisoners (Catholics), were brought before magistrates next day, and were held to bail in two sureties of £10 each to answer an indictment at the sessions. The Baron de Camin was the person who (according to his own testimony) fired the celebrated shot at the residence of the Foreign Minister, in Paris, which initiated the French revolution of 18-18.
