1 _VONDOJT . _PtTBLIC MBBTING OF FORSUEX W THE THEEE LEADING BUILDINQ BBANCHES . A meeting ni bald , on Monday evening . November l * t , at the Hola in the Wall , _Ftaet * tre « fc , to consider the propriety of terming « _ajdon to » nt » _l protection . The meeting mi called by advertisement * laths Adver tiser and _JFeaKjr D * _gwfc » , stating that _nost ? but foremen overfifteen men wo * invited toattend . Mr . Lock vu called to tbe chair , and briefly _addtpflaud them .
Mr . CAES 05 _harttaron upon himself the _responsibility of calling this meeting . He bettered the _tofjut _swa a _goed one , especially when they took into _oansttwav _' on the _psealiar _dreaaataaees of the strike at tbe Boom of Lords—that of tbe whole of the men rmnHnftif to injure the foreman . He would not enter into the e _»» of George Allan ; bat foremen had a duty to perfbm _: and they were * t time * obliged to adopt stringent me * . « rw : and he had alwaya observed that it mi tt » most worthiest part of the men employed who made i the most noiee , and were loudest in their outcry , against these necessary measnea . Foremen were placed in an awkward position ; _tiisy had to carry oat the works with &
profit to their employers , and were compelled to be strict ; bnt if eonduet like that of the mea to Allen were to be submitted to—if they were to be allowed to combine to crush ene man , what would be the _conasquecce ? Why , the same spirit would _apread _through ever ? Tillage , town , and city of the empire . Tim was already the ease ,- aawy of Ailen ' _a men were now work . ing under a _foreman in their establishment , and he had already felt their insolence . He was almost afraid to apeak to them ; tt » y would neither work , nor let others work . He had told him that hia little boy would earn more money —{ name }—he did not feel compelled to pro it He had already been told that he was a greater _^ raut than Allen —( name . ) ~ i
Mr . _Fet _, foreman of the masons—I feel that by _toting the step I have done , I ran the risk © f losing tbe _bJteem and respect that for many yesn I have ¦ enjoyed _Amongst the men ; bat I fee * that I am doing my duty to myself and employers . Tbe masters hare no right to bear the whale of the expense and the _fenratn of these strikes against foremen . If the example spread , masters might be necessitated to discharge many of them , and then a society like tbe one he wished to _establish would be able , at least , to find them employment .- the good effects of it had bees seen in the Clerk of the Works Society . Foremen over large Jobs were almost compelled to be irritable . If I had
been in Allen ' s place , Ji is likely I might have aeted in a similar manner ; and were they to be attack against in _ttis manner , without a oauae ; ta hare their names branded ; to be held up to detestation by those who "were always the } laast respectable portion of the menwho lived upon agita & on—who lived upon the subscriptions of their fellow men—men who made a stir ¦ bom privileges , became they could earn more by that than by their work ? If they carried out their ebjeet _, he Wonli advise them to elsct a committee to form a jmeleua , and to keep out disreputable characters , the remainder to be elected by Ballot . He wvald conclude _2 > _y moving the following resolution : —
" That it u the opinion of this meeting , after taking -into consideration the strike at the House of Lords , and _^ considering the result which might happen to them as -individuals in a _similar situation , that it is advisable to form 3 Society fer mutual protection against similar pro--ceediB _^ s in _fatura . "
Mr . Hartley , Mr . Thomas Jackson ' s , Pimlico , _^• ecanded the resolution . - A _person here expressed a hops that they did not _navBan to interfere between tbe ma & _ters and men now on - - trite . Mr . _Cabsos said they had no intention of doing so . * _€ he gauntlet was th : owa down , and let them fight it _-eot ; bu ; men had Societies , masters had Societies , and _3 _je wanted one fcr foremenj for if this spirit spread , it "Would be necessary . Mr . . I haTe a party of men from the House of Lords working for me . There is not one but what doeB his duty . I behave well to them , and they to me . 1 maie my ey & serve _imrtftart of my _tongna . 1 have known Allen fur years , and I know nothing ft gainst . him but his temper . It is my opinioE if a foreman is just to the men , they will be just to the master .
Mr . _Cos > _"svell , Mr . _Cubitfs , said—1 have no _ob-^ jecticn to form a . Sodetj for oar own protection % bat 1 cannot vote for the resolution . It defends the conduct Of Alkn . The mover of it says , that from ail be had iheard or read , Allen had not committed . himself more _? than be had . I cannot agree with this . I employ -- ¦ MMiy of the men , and haTe f uQ justice done me . It _eoold not be supposed' that these men struck against . Allen for fun ; that they are enduring hardships and jyxtvation merely for the excitement of a strike . I « _annot _vnta for the resolution . Our situations may not . last for _iver ; we Ktay " _oursehres be placed in a similar
_ipositaon , and be _compelled to act as tkey have done . I jam acquainted with a foreman on the same job as A _^*" j at the same place ; and I asked bis candid _^ opinion on the strike . He said there was no question taa to their being perfectly justified in striking against _Ihim ; they would never have done it if Allen had _eon--docted himself as a man ought to do . ( " Name . " ) It would injure him , and he would not give it Alien < iid not deserve the support of tbe _mating ; the masons _iiad always ? . cted resp = ctfally to him , and if he did not _approve of their _conduct he should discharge and not _"Hackguird them .
Mr . J . Kit said he had no objection to forming a _aoeiety for mutual protection : it was & s necessary tor -their _protection from the employers as from the men ; but he agreed with the last speaker that they shoula _Ikeep aloof from the strike . He was sure no one in the -room could _jostify the _eoodust of Allen . If be bad . _rfifty hands be -ircrald ixiA tbem up _agaiast the resolat & on as it _-sras 2207 _vorded . The name of Alien wosid "be no credit to them . If the men were treated as men , -they _wsald do a fair day * work . A _srrong feeling , on tbe part of the majority , being -evinced in _favour of the _masoss on strike , two 01 three left the room .
Mr . _Cahsos was very willing to alter the resolution . Perhaps it might be more advisable to pnt it off to some _otner time . He had fallen inte an error in 'wording it ; but he was glad to be put right . It might seem -that the meeting , at this particular time , intended to . support Mr . Allen ; but he begged to deny having any such intention . He only wanted to form a Society _for their mutual benefit He disclaimed the conduct attributed to George Allen from his heart ' s core . He " -would kick such a man ; it is a dreadful doom , _though not more _fr _* n he deserved , Hewould witkdraw the former resolution , and propose this : — " That , in the opinion of this meeting , it is desirable to farm a Society of foremen in the building trades , f 01 mutual protection . " Mr . _Datveli . seconded , the resolution .
Mr . _Pcdxet—They had a society five years _aro fcr a « hniW _purpose ; he -wanted to know tiieir ulterior -views ; did they mean to build « _lmshouses , or was it to be a society of foremen to crush the working men ? "He had been thirty-four years a foreman at _Curtis ' s , and never used a tp * " as Allen has dons . Mr . Kat—I highly praise the conduct of Mr . Carson in altering his motion ; but owing to the excitement at present existing , I shall propose as an _amendment , that this " question be postponed to this day three months ;" « nd I well snow we shall then have a better attendance of foremen th _** we no ¦* h » Te . Public sympathy was « o in favour with the masons , that inaay foremen who might be favourable to it , would not attend this evening , u it looked suspicious whether the object was not tc oppose the men on srrike .
Mr . Boubs seconded ihe amendment ; he was nc opposed to such a society . Men who had been Ion employed as foremen did not make good journeymen but the present waa a Tery ill-advised time to comment it ; he had twenty-four of the masons on strike in hi employ at the _Teaple Church , and they had doc justice by him and to his employer ; the men could nc ail be wrong , and Allen right The Chai & xaS suggested that if some _speri & c dai Was not mentioned , it would seem to be postpone tint die , and suggested 31 st of January . Mr . Kat having agreed to this , the amendment w pat and supported by thirty-seven votes ; tbe origin motion only receiving four vote * . Mr- _>" EWT 05 moved that the society be called "benefit society , but it was negatived .
Mr . Wheelsb having undertaken to get it i wrted as news in the Dispatch , it was resolved tl the resolution should be advertised in the Morm Advertiser . Mr . _Newtoh _mored that a committee of five appointed to carry out the object of the meeting , a « all a public meeting on the 31 st January . Mr . Kat seconded the motion , which was _una mously carried , and ten persons nominated , out whom Messrs . Kay , Lock , _Camwell , Jenkins , 1 Carson were elected , and were allowed to add I more to their number . The Repokeb from tbe Homing Advertiser hsv _enier & d the room , requested to _awL « ss the meet : This being acceded to , he in a rambling manner _sho-s them the claims ihe Advertiser hid upon them support F \ _f : I
Mr . Wheelek ( Reporter for the Star ) replied torn in an effective manner , and also gave the gee men present some hard rub * respecting the meeti contrasting it with that held by the journeymen . Wheeler was greeted with much applause . The meeting then adjourned until tha 31 st January . I , ''

To The Chartists Of The We3£ Of Enoiasa ...
TO THE CHARTISTS OF THE WE _3 _£ OF _ENOiASa My . Friends , —It was decided at the lain- delegate meeting beld in Bath , that public meetings , ahould be convened in tbe West for tao furtherance _af the Chartist cause , and that speakers should go _alternately to the different meetings . Now I ask you whether it bo possible that working men can go a distance from ten to fifteen , or twenty miles , without means-to pay their expence 8 ? I am willing to go _anyvrhMe to aid tbe
causa , but I cannot , nor will I be such a > fool to myself as to bear all _expeaeas . The cause is to bene & t you as well as us ; and if we are to labour on jour behalf , are we to bear all the burdens of attending public meetings ? The West must be _ngitated ; and mesas , must be raised to defray the _txMiieea of those wh » shall be engaged in the good work . A trifle from each Chartist would raise a fund sufficient for all purposes . I call the attention of Mr . _O- 'Csnnor to this _subject Tour ' s faithfully , _G . M . BARTLBTT . Bath .

He disclaimed all _connection with _phj _;^ iofll force decttine 3 , denied that tbe Chartists wsro tho advocates of physical force ,, and charged these doctrines on the aristocracy , who declared that it at auy time the majority of the people obtained possession of the government , no _rsaitter what tha public opinion of the British people—no matter what was tha public opinion of the _dcantry upon _Univaxsal Suffrageif the people did so obtain possession of the _government , it would be an act of merit in the aristocracy to rise uu . andrebel against , sueh government . . Sir Robert Peol bimself waa ni »» _aaly a preaches Qf
rebellion , but a receiver of _stcieu goods to a lar _^ amount ; by bis act of 1819 , he bad added fifty , _fisr cent , to his own property . In . tbe course of along address , M 5 » O'Brien _eiiteredi very largely into , the means necessary to be used in order to obtaja , the _rigittB of the people , and the , use they wera _to-make of those _rights when they had obtained them ; he would put an end to _aghatiou by _leaving nothing to agitato for ; and the _way to do this was , by gelling the _Ciartor the law of the land as soon as possible , when they could see the objects of the Charter carried cut to their fullest extent . The first step towards this was to petition—nothing could be done without a numerously-signed petition . The people were Bhut out from all power in the state , and , therefore this was the only constitutional means they had
left , to show to the Government that the people were tho most numerous party . On the presentation _af the petition , the Government would either _grsjnt their rights or they would not , and if they did not grant them thon ho was for getting them as -their i oppressors got theirs—by taking them . ( Cries of " there is no way else . " ) To do this they must prepare for the next general election ; they must have men ready to come forward , and elect them by show of hands . They must have four or five hunr dred men elected by at least nine-tenths of the nation , and then when too Parliament of the aristocracy was assembled they must petition—nay humbly implore these representatives of the one-tenth to walk off , * nrl _nnt _Innk after the _aftVurB of the nation anvloueer .
as the nation did not want them . Every man , he contended , had three constitutionalrights : —1 * _Etery man had a right to hold up his hand at a general election , _accoi-dingto the ancient usage of the country ; 2 , Every man had a right to Btop work when he liked ; and , 3 , Every man had a right to defend his house if it was attacked by robbers ot receivers of stolen goods ; ha bad a tight to fire on them if they came , aud how could be fire if he had not arms . He did not advise them to have arms , but if they had them and used them , it must be in self-defence . His plan was , then , first , to show the opinion of the country by having the petition _numeionsly signed , and then if the national voice was not attended to , to be prepared with ulterior measures . Mr . O'Brien OuBtinued his lecture until shortly after ten , _whenhe concluded amidst great cheering , by stating the heads of his future lectures . On Wednesday _evenbe Mr . O'Brien resumed . Mr . 1
Roberts was called to the chainThe lecturer commenced by reviewing the conduct of both Whigs and Tories , and severely deprecated the movement of Sir Robert Peel in _prorogoing Parliament at * time when commmeroe was on the verge of ruin , when thousands of the people of this country : were actually starving for want , when trade was declining , and the commercial interests Of the _manofactoren W » on tbe brink of destruction ; whereas , had that gentleman have passed one law , yea , singly ono » Wf namely , the Charter , all these things : would baye Sone on prospering , and the country would _haye been enefittedin everyway . ( Cheers . ) He went on at great length to depict the miseries endured by the labouring population of this country , dwelt en the mcafures proposed by . " . the different political _parsiea in existence , and sincerely advised them to recognise tho repeal of no ono law , nor of one tax , singly , but to go for the whole Charter , and nothing less than the Charter .

The attendance of buyers was on tko whole extensive , yet , from the unfavourable state of the weather for slaughtering-, the beef trade was excessively dull , at a decline on last week ' _quotations of from 2 d to 4 d per 8 ib , and more of the _stook waa turned out unsold at the ooaclusion of _business than ou any market day during the present year , while ma » y of the "jobbed _beasta were sold at a ruinous sacrifice : in many instances at a loss of from £ 2 to £ 3 per head .
The rebeipts by sea , from . ' Scotland , did not exceed 30 Scots and 90 shsop , nearly the whole of which were beneath the middle quality . Storo stock , though offered at considerably depressed rates , were a mere drug , and few sales _were concluded . With sheep we Were fairly supplied , while the inquiry for them was unusually depressed , and the salesman were compelled to _j ; ivo way in price fully 4 d par 81 b ; most of the sheep were suffering severely « om the prevailing _epidemic , and many losses were sustained in the transition of them , especially from the northern districts . Tho veal trade ruled dull , but no variation was noticed in the quotations with ft limited number of calves on sale . Prime small porkers sold freely ; but other kinds of pigs oommanded scarcely any attention .
_Livsafooi Cattle Market , Mo . vdat , Nov . 1 st . —The number of beasts at market to-day has not been so large as that of last week , and principally of inferior quality : tho best quality was eagerly sought after . The number of . sheep was small , and in _general of inferior quality , consequently the best maintained late price ? . The best beef frora 6 _# d down to 5 d ; beet Wether Mutton 7 d down to 6 d per lb , according to quality . Number of Cattle at market;—Beasts 1 , 417 , Sneep 5 , 688 . '
