 We learn from the Raleigh Progress that another female riot took place in Salisbury, N. C. on the 18th ult. The women concerned in it compelled the merchants to share with them their stock of flour, and also robbed several families of the stock laid up for home use. Salt, snuff and molasses were also taken by the mob.
