      Premier Hangman Intends To Cater To The ...

      premier hangman intends to cater to the taste of a large portion of the public by establishing a Museum of Horrors in a suite of apartments in Newgate . Such an institution would no doubt rival every other of a similar description in the metroplis . It is his intention to petition Parliament to protect his emoluments , so far as to bring the wax likenesses of his clients under a sort of copyright act . The principal room in the exhibition will be styled " The Gallows Chamber , " at the upper end of which will be a perfect model of the gallows apparatus , extending the entire length of the chamber , on which the figures of the great hanged will be suspended by the identical ropes that were used in the actual suspensory ceremony . " The Manuscript Room" will contain the autographs of all celebrated murderers , with an immense

      collection of " last dying speeches , " framed in black . A band of music , the performers in deep mourning , will perform "The Dead March in Saul , " and a variety of similar pieces , during the exhibition . The hair of many of the heads , set in galvanic rings , will be arranged in glass cases , with the lowest prices marked . " The Deadly Weapon Room" will contain a great variety of instruments of destruction used by the most notorious British and forei gn homicides . The pistols . and' bludgeons will be formed into fanciful devices , similar to the arms in the Tower . Upon the payment of an extra shilling any lady or gentleman may have the extreme gratification of having their heads tapped with any favourite bludgeon in the collection . Considering the present taste there is little doubt that Calcraft ' s Museum will become the most attractive exhibition in the metropolis — Great Gun .

C » sf-lots . Fellow me ^^ be experience of the past year proves that much gfljfitehus been done by the collecting , and publishing , of flKsreal , though miserably degraded state of that portioa « £ our trade employed by unprinciplfj competitors , or dealers iu ready-made clothes , who , pro . fesding to sell cheap , and at immense sacrifices , delude the public , and sacrifice every comfort of their worUmfn

      to you we say , go on!—make your caseknown to thcpubljc and rest assured , a generous people -will , ere long , sec vqu righted . But , fellow men , we must , in our appeals to the public be consistent—we must not expect a justice-loving ju-opla to support us in withdrawing their support from otir op . pressors unless we are prepared to buy no more cheap shoes and boots , cheap hats , and all the host of cheap et eeteras rendered cheap by defrauding the labourer of his wages . Thus , you see , that if wc wish to secure the co-opera , tion of the Trades in our favour , without whose assistance our utmost efforts will be productive of hut little eood we must be prepared to amalgamate with them for tha general good of the whole ; in a word , wc cannot , as men and brethren , members of the great human family ask for that support which , as a body , wc are nut pre ! pared to give in retsrn .

      Men and Brethren!—If ever there was a period in th ? history of our race , when it was pre-eminentl y ncccss , v » to possess correct principles for our guidance , such is the present . We have now presented to our view a period when men arc beginning to look beyond the mist which has so long enveloped them , and retarded their progresi —a period when " humanity is leaping from her bod oi apathy" —a period when the masses arc breaking Ioojj from their thraldom , and beginning to understand tlieu true position—when new and untried principle * - are a ! work — when efforts arc heing made by all parties to furnish the means of improvement , to sow those genni which , when rooted , and grown up , must of necessiti bring about a social regeneration . It must be apparent to all , even the most common observer , that these are not common times ; a great cliangj is in progress , and men are beginning to act on princi ple * more accurate and more enlightened .

      Pacts form the basement structure of our truly National Union ; but the accumulation of facts would be perfectly useless if allowed to continue a chaotic mass without ar . raiigeraent . Having , however , taken this preliminary step—understanding now what is our real statc—we have to apply this knowledge ; a process which will effect great changes . The period is come when we must cease speaking of our facts om ' ji , the constant inculcation of which was necessary during the first promulgation of the principles oi our society : it is now ow duty to apply them , to build up a system , and then make it bear on specific points .

      In pursuing this course we must expect to meet with difficulties , and we must remember that in many instances we have to deal with untrained intellect , and conse . qnently with the slaves of prejudice . Nor can wc wonder at the opposition offered by such characters . Some from sloth , and others from a deficiency of moral courage , are deferred from examining our principles ; therefore > ve cannot be surprised if such denounce our present move , meat as Utopian , or an unwise speculation . There ar » some who treat our views as wild and chimerical . These are they who first opposed and who now stand aloof from our movement , and who think themselves safe in denouncing all who entertain different opinions to themselves , as enthusiasts ' , Ye drag-chains to the onward progress

      of our organisation , it is ignorance that prompts you to declare that our trade is always to remain degraded ; that all our labours , let them he ever so herculean , will never be able to raise it from its present degraded position . We scout such opinions , and hail with surpassing joy the dawning of a brighter day . We appeal to the really intelligent of our trade ; and we cau afford a smile of pity for men we have just described . We appeal to those honourable and highly respectable employers , who scorn to take advantage of their men , and not to those pseudo refined mushrooms , who have sprung up in the exact ratio of the degradation of their workmen , and the gullibility of the public to assist us in coming out in th » , presemYmoveincnt to a successful issue .

      Fellow Workmen !—The Conference have decided upon bringing out a weekly publication at a small charge , aud we earnestly call upon you to support it , confident , as we are , that it will be a powerful means of strengthening anil extending our union ; satisfied , as we arc , that there is sufficient intelligence in the trade to support it , and that it will become a cheek to the unprincipled employer , ai through it every member in the Union will have the means of exposing any and every act of injustice practised by them . We are also fully convinced that the respectable masters will give it every encouragement , anxious , as they are , that the journeymen , should be universally enlightened ; that we should now prepare ourselves to exchange ignorance for intelligence , and , with it , error for truth , good for evil , poverty for comfort , inferiority ami degradation for equal and therefore perfect freedom ; and they will hail the institutions proposed in this address , if you adopt ttem , as the opening of a new floodgate of" light and glory" upon the trade .

      Let the sections , then , wheresoever it is practicable , establish libraries and reading rooms , for our own enlightenment , and to plead our own cause , who have so long been deprived of the rights of our labour bj unprincipled employers ; let us clothe oursches with intelligeuce as with a garment , and as we begin to see clearly the truth , that real happiness cannot be secured to the individual members of our trade in any other way than by promoting the general good of all , our natural and inextinguishable desire for happiness will compel us to adopt the principle of equal justice , and to make arrangements by which alone that good cau be secure * Tiie period win then have arrived when tnmi ledge shall te Increased ; maw ' s long and dreary night of ignorance will have passed away , and the stormy passions ami jarring contests that have been engendered will hi dissipated ,

      Tailors of England , h eland , and Scotland , our evil * are the same—the same remedy will suflicc . Let « s / then , be united in one common society , in one bowl of indissoluble unity : that , as an aggregate of weak thread * produces a powerful rope capable of holding at bay the largest ship which all the united force and fury of a violent tempest , working in conjunction with the huge and ponderous vessel , is not able to break or subdue , so we , wrought together on the principles of truth and justice , shall be able to withstand the attacks of our most powerful opponents ; and let us show that we are not Content to view whole thousands daily groan , The plundered rictims of the proud and strong ; Content to tamely die , or starving roam , The willing slaves of tvrannv and wrong .

      But-Unite ! unite ! ye toiling , bleeding , slaves ; Arise ! arise!—why would ye tamely die " > . In voice , as loud as ocean ' s rolling waves—Proclaim your will through earth , and sea , and si ; Yours , in the bonds of unity , B . A . DKAHOUOLE . E . Maukder , J . RUSSEIL .
