      PROM OUB LONDON CORRESPONDENT . Wednesday Even ing ^ November 11 , Half-past Site . I am obliged to close my present letter an hour earlier than usual , in order to be present this evening at a public meeting in Chelsea , Mr . Hetherington in the chair , called for tho purpose of addressing her Majesty to grant a free pardon to Frost , Williams , and Jones , and ail political prisoners ; as also to organise and enrol members in tho National Charter Association , on the plan laid dewn by the Manchester delegates ! A summary of tbe proceedings will be furnished in my letter of to-morrow .

      Last night , Mr . Peat delivered a lecture at the Marylebono Mechanics' Institution , Circus-street . Road , " oa Universal Suffrage , as contrasted with Household Suffrage . " The large room was well filled , the delivery of th « lecture was highly satisfactory and tho various topics adduced in illustration of the lecturer ' s position , that Universal Suffrage is one of the rights and privileges which every human being has , by the yery fact of his existence ; or , in the language of Paine , " every man ' s person is his title-deed : " were well chosen , admirably connected , and eloquently put ' forward by Mr . Peat , calling forth repeated gratulationu from hid audience . In one part of hia address he con » ived to bring Lord Cardigan und the Bishop of Exeter , by a species of

      logical transmutation , in jiixta-position before hia audidence with Feargua O'Connor , and William Lovett : the picture was irresistible , and a shout of laughter followed the mention of the aristocrats in the same breath with the two " nobles of nature . " Mr . Peat ¦ was equally happy in satirising the building of royal dogpalaces , monkey-muialons , and eb . uTches , -while the nation resounds with a loud and general outcry of distress , starvation , and wide-spread ruin . " Capital , " said the lecturer , "is only the saved produce of labour ; and can only of right belong to those who have produced it" The address was illustrated by soms very able passages from Southey , Marryat , Tait , and a recent number of the Northern Liberator , and , at it « conclusion , was greeted with loud and long-continued

      applause . Mr . Maitland , an old Reformer of tho Ptiine and Cobbett school , felt great pleasure at bearing the name and sentimenU ef Thomas Paino spoken and cheered in a respectable public assembly ; fur , within hia ( Mr . M . ' s ) recollection , any man who shomld venture to speak in terms of approbation of that great and good man , would have been thrown out of the window of almost any public meeting in England . But now , he was happy to see , tho pe » plt 5 were wiser ; and they could not do better than itudy the principles of Thomas Paine , and cherish the doctrines be had taught ; these doctrines were now in successful practice in the new world , which , he hoped , in the language of Mr . Paine , would regenerate the old world . Mr . M . alao said that Cobbett had predicted .

      long before the fact transpired , that Sir Francis Burdutt would turn Tory , and that Mr . Hunt waa equally right in his prophecy of the effects of the Reform Bill , though each , in their day , were met by the clamour ot he expediency-men . He was , however , gratified at the present aspect of popular opinion , as it looked aa though they were now no longer goiuj to b& eajoled by party tricks and partial measures , bat were determined to go to tho root of the evil , and probe the wound to the botttora . ( Loud cheeis . ) Other observations were mad « by various speakers ; the Trades' Hall question was Introduced , and received with every symptom of general interest ; a vote of thauks to Mr . Pe * t was nrried by acclamation , and tha meeting broke « p . Mr . Chapman waa announced as the lecturer on Tuesday next

      Thh " Fohhicji Policy" Agitaiiok . —Th * general feeling with regard to this question , aeema to be that , like the Corn Laws and other particular grievances arising from uluslegislation , the Chartists ought to stand aloof from agitating , except as a reason for Obtaining the Chart « r . During thu pint few weeks , one of these agltatori , passing through the metropolis on big way to France , endeavoured to get up a public meeting on the aubject , but the attempt proved a complete failure ; and the strongest opinions were last night expressed , on the attempt made by this party to got the places where tha Chartists meet , in order that tho inference might be drawn that the " people of England" are the source from whence the funds are derived that enable the " foreign policy" agitatora to traverse this country and France . " This , " said a waggish old Rad , " is coming tli 8 old soldier over us . "

      The "S » n , " the Chartists , and the Tketotali . kks . —In some remarks appended to a report of a . lecture by Mr . Macconnell , the other evening , against teetotalism , tho Sim headed its paragraph , " Chartiat meeting defeated ; " whereas , according to a document shown to me last evening , with a request that I would notice it in my communication to the Star ; the facts appear » o be these : —• ' Mr . Macconnell , finding himself completely outdone in the discussion between himself and a teetotaller on the 30 th October , ( I quote the document referred to ) his only plan was to advise the people to resort to

      physical force ; which the teetotallers , taking advantage of left tlie room , declaring that Mr . MaccouneU was a . Chartist lecturer . " But , " adds the document , " Mr . M . ia not deputed by the Chartists to lecture for them , nor do we ever intend to purchase talent to set forth the principles of the People ' s Charter , while there is better and honester talent in our own ranks ; and the Chartists will not accept the services of those who tender them to the highest bidder , being conyineec that such persons cannot have the cause at heart ; and instead « f forwarding the people ' s cause , would only tend to crush it . "

      Loud Mayor's Dat . —Though all the preparations were arranged on the most costly scale , the aftair of Monday has been pronounced by experienced cockneys , ( notwithstanding the contrary assertions of some of the morning papers ) , to have been a miserable set-out With the exception of the enthusiasm to hiss the late Lord Mayor and one or two others , who have been stigmatised as having acted shabbily by Mr . Alderman Hatmer , no public feeliag could be said to have been expressed ; and the " men in armour" were quietly stared at for a moment or two , and then sulkily turned from . Thousands of Cleave ' s Gazette were Bold ,

      containing a large caricature of the new Lord Mayor , seated in a pickle jar ( his Lordship is an oilman ) , in company with the iron Duke and the Bishop of Exeter , drawn by asses , representing the independent livery , and driven by Jim Crow Barnes , while Mr . Stockdale , the moralist , ia clearing the way , and Mother Church , as a prominent spectator , is cheering on the procession with the waving of a torch . Strange to say , the recent election , though more hotly contested than any previous city election since the " Wilkes" txcitement , produced no fun in the shapes of caricatures , except the two published in Cleave ' s Gazette , and these , consequently , had a considerable sale .

      Adelphi Theatre . —A piece is in rehearsal at the above theatre , which is to be called " The Black Bottle ; " no doubt it will have a long run . Daring RonnEBiES . —This morning , John Smith , dressed in the garb of a sailor , -was brought before the Lord Mayor , at the Mansion House , for final examination from Friday last . The prisoner on the previous evening went into the respective shops of Mr . Dodd , silversmith , of Leadenhall-street , and Mr . Gibson , of Bishopgate , from both of which he stole a gold watch , of the value of £ 10 each . There was another charge fully proved against the prisoner , who behaved in a most disgraceful manner . Ho was fully committed for trial , and the witnesses bound over to prosecute .

      Shocking Cad Accident . —This morning , between ten and eleven o ' clock , as a four-wheeled cab was proceeding down Union-street , Southwark , a fine ittle boy named Jones , tho son of a widow living in the above-namsd street , was running behind , when ho got his left foot eutangled in the near hind wheel , by which it was crushed in a most frightful manner . The poor little fellow was removed instantly to the hospital . Awfullt Sudden Death . —Last night , an inquest was held before Mr . Carttar , coroner for Kent , at the Grey Coat Boy , Road-street , Greenwich , on view of the body of Mr . Carey , a master tailor , aged 59 years , who , after eating a hearty supper on the previous Saturday night , retired to rest about twelve o ' clock , and expired at three o ' clock the-next morning . Ver-¦

      dict— " Died by the visitation ol tiod . " Destructive Fiue . —This morning , shortly after two o ' clock , the extensive premises of Mr . KsBt , morocco leather-manufacturer , of Tver ' s Gateway , Snow ' s Fields , Bermondsey , were discovered to be on fire . No time was lost in difpatohing messengers to the different ftre brigade establishments ; and in a ehort time the engine from the Southwark-bridgc station , followed by the West of England , Waterlooroad , and Watling-street , was on the spot ; and , there being a plentiful supply of water , the flames were got under , after praiseworthy exertions on the part of the firemen , by a quarter to four o ' clock . The damage is estimated at about £ 1 , 300 . The property is insured in tho Sun Fire Office . Had it uot been for the stillness of th . 9 morning , ' . he lesa would have beenfrieUiful .

      GRAND DEMONSTRATION OF TOTAL ABSTINENCE IN HULL . On Thursday , November 25 th , " an a » gre <* ate tT B e T ^ n H in i- "fe , ? - ? erance ' " ^ held ia the Town Hall , Sir William Lovvihrop , the Mayor , having kindly consented to preside . Long before the time of meeting , seven o ' clock , the people began to pour m . from all directions . The Hall was soon crowcled to excoss The aide galleries were reserved for the ladies ; and the body of the Hall presented a mng ma » 3 of human beinga , anxious to hear a full development ot those gTand and glorious truths which are emitting their splendour through the nark clouds of the intemperance and drinking customs of our land . A few minutes after seven o ' cloek . At T »* » a . lir L £ * 1 a 1 1 * ¦ « . . ¦* «• the Worshiful the

      Right p Mayor and friends assembled . A death-like silence pervaded the vast assembly-jibe largest that has assembled in the Hall for many yeara . We have heard the estimate from one who is well calculated to judge , that there must have been fifteen hundred present . Hundreds surrounded the door , bat were . unable * O gain admittance , aud who were driven away only by the pelting rain . The meeting had been got up on the very shortest notice ; the bills having been issued only tb « same day , or late tha previous evening . The sentiments of Sir William , breathing the loftiest benevolence , and the purest . patriotism , were received with tho moat enthusiastic applause , ft is well whea a town is blessed with 8 uch pro-Siding officers . The interests of humanity , and the rights of citizenship , get properly guarded . Had Andrew Marvel risen from his ashes , to personate tho

      priociples of gonuine freedom—which he enkindled by the firo that within him burned , for the dignity and glory of his constituents ; fanned by the breath of patriotism , and fed by disinterested love , tor tho weal of his brethren—ho could not have developed a loftier tone of morality , nor better means to attain comfort and happiness . We canno * but We that Sir William ' s mantle may fall upoa all his successors ; and that the noble principle of promoting the prosperity of Hull , so enthusiastically recognized on tho opening of the Hull Kailway , maj bo fully carried out , to promote the vital interests of this borough—ever rememberiug , that without genuine morality , a great people exhibits , amidst the splendour and magnificence of palaces and cities , tho picture of a horde of savages , whose pampered lusts and wildest passions are fed only by individual aggrandizement and glory . Sir William rose , aud spoke aa follows : —

      " ¦ I appear before you to-night , at the r « que 3 t of several gentlemen , connected with the temperance cause in this towD , as the chief magistrate of the borough . I have thought it my duty to comply -with their Bequest , believing , as I do , that intemperance is the great curse of tho land , withering and laying waste its brightest hopes , and baffliDg every etfort to ameliorate the condition of the people . " I can speak from experience in my official capacity , of the evils of drunkenness , aa being the source of almost every crime which comes before a . court of justice ? nor can any one have an adequate idea of tho extent of the misery in this and every large town in the kingdom , except as they witness the cSeota oi it in the daily exhibitions of a policecourt .

      " This it is nsy painful lot to experience , and , from a wish to promote , ag far as lies in my power , the happiness Of ray fellow-creaturcB , I am induced to come forward in support of the Temperance Societieu , believing that they are a most important feature of tho age , » nd calculated , under Providence , to subdue this monstrous evil , and prepare those who are its votaries for the reception ot Christiaa instruction . " I do not pretend to an accurate knowledge of the operations of these Societies , or of the shades of difference existing among them . I * m content to enrol myself at a friend of the cause , and a memb « r of the Temperance Society , without pledging mytelf personally to anything further . " I recognise the great principle of temperance , leaving it to others to adopt such views , and attach themselves to those sections of the cause most suitable to their ease , and their own consciences .

      " But this I « an speak to most distinctly , that there is no chance of recovery for thoie who are tbe victims of inteniper&nee , unless they adopt the plan of total abstinence ; and , therefore , I can most conscientiously recommend such to enrol themselves at once as members of that Society . " The meeting w »* al » o addressed by John Wades E « q ., President of the Hull Temperance Society . Rev . J . Render ,. ReT . E . Higginson , J . Ready , Es < u Ret . T . Messer ^ and Mr . R . Firth . The mettuig luted till half-put ten o ' clock .

      Tho Maior dosed the meeting as follows : — " I really hope that the temperance tauis wtH have made an important advance , by the discussion of this evening ; at learnt I judge so , hj your patience , and the apparent interest yoa have felt , in common with myself , on this oecasion . I sannoi but rejpice to see ths prosperity of a cause , whiah at once involves so much the happiness of both risa and poor ; . for , in tho economy of God ' s providence , it is so arranged that we are all dependant one «* another , aud eo linked together , thai the virtues or vices of the one , cannot fail to affect tho others There would not be those great chasms between tbe rich and tha poor , were it not that intemperance intervenes , and prevents that intercourse which

      would otherwise be mutually beneficial ; for no station can be independent of another . Those who are exalted , are most honoured when they consecrate that advanced position , and render it subserrism to the good of those below them ; and also those whe are beneath them ., will be moat esteemed when , they contribute their portion of benefit to the general good . What I want to see , is tho advancement of all those great principles , of which temperance is one , to bring the poor out of that degraded position in which they are plaeed by intemperance —( and when I speak of poor , I feel sure I need not explain myself because I mean nothing disrespectful ; for if there is one thing more than another , Of which I pride myself , it ia that of being the friend of the poor)—but really almost all drunkards are poor . If they

      are not poor to begin with , they are noon become sor and what I want , is to see them brought out of that condition , and advanced in sooiety ; SO that they may co-operate with , us in promoting the general good , and that they may themselves reap the benefit of all our political , civil and religious privileges , which are the glory of our land , and the birthright of the poor , as well as of the rich Could 1 but feel sure of the vice of intemperance yielding to the efforts that aro now making , I should be most sanguine in my speculations of all that affects the temporal and eternal interests of mankind ; . and if I have contributed in any measure to this great end , by presiding at this meeting , I shall feel that my Mayoralty , which is now near its termination , will never have been more honoured than by taking part in so good a cause . "

      The ?/ Iayor having vacated the chair , John Wade , Esq , was called to it . A vote of thanks to the Mayor was carried with three times three , waving of hats and handkerchiefs . Tho Mayor briefly acknowledged the honour . —Correspondent .
