      O'CC-MOS AN M . P . TO THE EOIWa OF TBE MOBTBEBN STAB . Deas Sis . —At length and at last O'Connor is an M . P . ( or member of the Commons House of Parliament , ) but the most surprising Iking is that so many of the middle-class should rejoice in . his being such , ay ; the very men who , two years ago , would bave lamented it . Why do they rejoice ! Because they have learned tbat the great principles which O'Connor advocates , and which , through bis untiring seal , he has made tbe question of questions , are nothing more than common sense , common honesty , and common justice ! That tbe people ought to have the Franchise ; tbat tbey ought to have tbe land ; and that tbe game iaws , enclosure laws , and all such laws ( which are , in reality , ko laws , but only tyrannical decrees , ) ought to bo to the father of all wickedness , which is to the , devil himself ! , How refreshing

      it is to find such a man as Feargus O'Connor in tbe place of that heap of rubbish , yclept Sir John Hobhouse . Oh ! that every district had acted as the men of Nottingham have dsne ; tha sanitary condition of tbe people ' s house would he soon , improved . But let us hope that the next general election will prove better stilt for tbe people , and that ths election of such men as Feargus O'Connor , Colonel Thompson , W . J . For , Geo . Thompson , and a few others , and the expulsion of Hobhouse , Hawes , and a few more such unmentionables , is a sign of the times that electors will not disgrace themselves as they have hitherto done , by making of what ought to be one of the best and parest assemblies in Euglaeil , one of the greatest confederacies of designing knaves , and . robbers that ever existed , and have hope of electors , ay , and of Parliament too ; each will yet be what they ought to be , especially when there is an extension of tbe suffrage . Trusting that you will give publicity to tbe above ,

      I remain , dear Sir , Tours for Human if regression and Improvement , HhNSX DoWEIiI . GBlrFITHS , Marylebone , August 2 nd , 1347 . . ' P . 8 . — There is , in reality , now only onb political party , and that is tbe Radical ; the Tories split with the treachery of Sir Robert Peel towards them ; the Whigs are anything but a party , ( they are now struggling like skinned eels for an existence , ) bat the Radicals , the Chartists , who . can deny the ' v existence n » a parts '" Farewell to Whiggery and Toryism ; what has it done for this nation , ay , what has it done . 1 Let the ragged attire , and the famished faCBS of thousands answer !—Respectfully ; Ac , ll .

      _ , Mr Dwaim said his heart was swollen with deli'ht , and it was with some difficulty that he could find words to give expression to his feelings upon this occasion . Glory tn the Men of Nottingham ! He was a Catholic and an Irishman , and from the bottom o . * his soul he thanked the Irish Catholics of Nottingham , who . he was informed , voted to a man for O'Connor . Tlie dawn of liberty hath risen in Nottingham ! Fends and prejudices were buried in Nottingham ' . And the young spirit of Freedom was abroad inviaoratins and giving new life to the h dy politic . Better days were in-store for Ireland ; a portion of her own sons had seen , their error , and with that magnanimity which has ever characterised Irishmen , tbey have made ample amends . Never

      was there a more traduced man than O'Connor ; O'Conneil had m . ide him a presen t to the English people ; but from the moment that Feargus O'Connor set his foot upon English soil till tho present instant , where is the man that would dare point to one single act , ay , one single word , that ever that man said against his country . Ns , sir , amongst all his revilers , and though it had been said that he would he soon found in the camp of the enemy , Feargus O'Connor was the only ltvirg man that had acted a consistent part in the politics of the empire ; and , although the hireling press of England and Ireland united their aid to crush that man , with tbe aid of a faithful few poor men , they now , as ever , dread that spirit which they could neither break nor bend .

      Nottingham might well be proud as Cork was . Who had he defeated ? Sir Cam Hobhouse , tbe first orator of tbe day , a minister of the arown , Ue ( MrD . ) recollected attempting to address a meeting once at which Sir Cam presided , but because he was not an elector , although he told him he was an Irishman that dared to tell him the truth , he would not hear him . Ue was now glad to see an Irishman triumph over him , and hurl hi » ministerial consequence in the dust . Feargus O'Connor had n > w got Whiggery down , aud he would keep it down . lie should like to see Cruikshank , or Alfred Crowquill , sketching ' little Johnny , ' when Feargus O'Connor first entered the House . Lord John was now the representative of the filth and dirt of London . No one could

      deny that . Yet he felt it a high honour no doubt : and he believed he would rather have suffered a deteat in London himself than tbat his hack should have been kicked out of Nottingham . He ( Mr Dwaine , ) . had no hesitation insaying tbis was the greatest triumph tbe people have had t ip . ; e many years . It was a triumph for Ireland too ; and they would soon see that Feargus O'Connor was true to the land of his fathers-if he had been in the hocse , there was not a year that the repeal of the union would not have been discussed in that house . He recollected a meeting at the Thatched House , when Feargus O'Connor urged the necessity of bringing forward tho repeal question yearly in the house , and Daniel O'Conneil was the man that opposed him ; lie differed with O'Conneil upon that

      policy , and he believed Feargus O'Connor wasri » ht and Daniel O'Conneil was wrong ; and O'Connor ' s iirgtttnent was this , —John Bull is a straight forward honest fellow , provided you did not sumirab too much to iiim . he liked fair play , he only wanted to beconvinced he was wrong ; bnt hecould not be convinced without argument ; he stood up for his own rights and had no respect for those who bail not tho same courage to stand . up for theirs also . What wonld Young and Uld Ireland-say when tbey knew that his fearless veins were proclaiming , within the corrupt house of St Stephen ' s , the death hnell of the accursed union ? Would they even then forge-t th « ' battles of the parties , ' and do justice to one they had so oft maligned . —we shall see . Mr Dwaine proposed the following resolution , and sat down amidst much cheering : —

      ReEolvtd : —That the grateful and henrtfelt thanks of this meeting of Confederates , are eminently due and nre hereby given to th . electoMandni ) ti . electors of Notingliam , lor their noWe and miinly conduct in spurning the gilt , teriug bribe of the treasury at the shrine of their dignity as freemen , and who thereby have shown a mugi-animous example to the constituencies of the world , by their contempt of the perfidious Whigs , and their love for universal liberty , by returning its most uallinchiug and indomitable advocate , i ' cargus O'Connor . Mr Scuayah , aa an Irishman , felt pvouil to second the resolution ; anything he could say , would only mar its effect after the last- speaker . Mr "VUtsb next addressed the meeting at great

      length ; It gave him great pleasure to witness the joy that prevailed at the triumph of O'Connor , lie w ; is gkid to see the Whigs getting such a , thrashing . The condition . of the people was always worse under the Whigs ; aon - cVer prosperous they g » t when they took office , they were sure to leave it in debt . The Irish people got * nothing but coercions and starvation from them . He believed had the Tories been in office , not one man would have died in Ireland . Let tht'm contrast the position of the Whies ot this city with that of Feargns O'Connor ; never wn : < bribery and corruption more flagrant and reasonable on the one side ; now patrintisni , honour and wellearned fame on the other .

      Mr M'CARinY next addressed the meeting , and canvassed very freely the political shifting doctrines of Sir Cam Hobhouse . Mr Watts followed : He congratulated the country on the evident advance of liberalism as contrasted with last election ; he saw a detevmiuation in the minds of the people to march forward with such a spirit , and with such an accession of lenders their can-e must triumph , sectional parties were falling by tbe defeat of Vincent and Sturgc , and the people ; ere ! on £ , would be one body , one iciml , having one common object in view , tho greatest amount of happiness for the greatest number . . Mr Jous Comxs . ex-repeal warden . nexl addressed the mee'ing ; This was the first tinu- 'he had attended a meetim ; for some months past , there were some members present who knew the cause of it , yet he was as devoted to Ireland as ever .

      MrDwAis moved a vote of'thanks to Mr John Collins for his services at all times in the cause oi Ireland , hut particularly for the prominent and active part ho took in the original organisation of Confederacy in London . ..... Mr Clakcv seconded the resolution , and joined in the deserved encomium psssedon Mr Collins escrtions . others had talked loudly , but tho work , the real work , was done by him . The New Organisation * .--A committee of 7 were then appointed to consider tbeir future organisation , and ordered to bring forward their report on next night of meeting .

On Friday afternoon the deceased had taken a party to Greenwich , and on his return had drunk freely , and was thrown from bis vehicle with much force ; He was picked up and carried to the shop of a chemist , and that gentleman , after a cursory examination told the police nonstable ,-that nothing was the matter beyond drunkenness , and he was taken to the station ' house in Park-lane , where every

      attention was paid to him , but he expired about live o ' clock on the following morning . The surgeon , who had made a post mortem examination , found that death had been produced by a concussion of the brain caused by the fall from his cab , ami » he jury returned a verdict of accidental death , addding that they believed the sergeant and the constable dad been misled by the statement of the chemist , and that no blame attached to them .

      greatness , and paramount claims of the National Association They are giving tbe question the fullest investigation , and are struct with the perfect adaptation ol the Association to meet the wants and wishes of the people , ; to achieve the purposes of union , and restore to the working classes the imperishable richts oi industry . They recognise in this confederation a dovdopement of the advancing spirit of the nineteenth century ; and a firm determination is manifested by a vast number of them , to keep pace with tho growing intelligence and progressive spirit of the present ago . The adhesions that appeared in last week ' s star will show the hopeful prospects of the Association . J he great number of applications we have for a » ents rora all parts of the kingdom , to visit the different fades Mm . to set lorth and explain the obic-ctsfnf

      me national Association , is another proof of the raoid manner in which the princi ples of onr body are circulatin-r . Indeed , so numerous are the applications lor agents and inf ormation , that it would take the Central Committee six months from the present date to supply , without any other application . But letters are daily coming to the office , pressing for agents or it no agent can be sent , they want the Central Committee to impart all the information in their power ; as to . the constitution and plan of operation adopted by the National Union . Evirything around us warrants tbe conclusion , that the signs of the times are in our favour , and we trust that the various districts in connexion with the Association will co-operate with us , and not allow so favourable an opportunity to pass without beine embraccd . andendeavourtocommunioate to the different

      trades m your respective localities , such information as tliey may require ; and depend upon it . we shall individually ba benefited by doing so , for the greater our numerical strength may be , the more stronsand efficient will be our effort for Labour ' s emancipation . - The districts can assist us in various ways , and by aconstant co-operation of these auxiliaries , the Association would be more prosperous than ever . And to show how this may be , we feet disposed to direct your attention to a subject introduced a few weeks back by tbe Manchester silk weavers . A . plan which , if taken up by the districts ; would have a , very beneficial influence upon both the employers , and all those who have not as yet joined the National Association .

      The plan suggested by the Manchester broad silk weavers is , for the various district committees ' t : > appoint a select committee to canvass their respective localities , to visit the shopkeepers , the coffee house keepers , publicans , provision dealer ? , and all classes of tradesmen ; depending upon the working classes for support , with the view of obtaining these tradesmen to become honorary members of the Association . Now this wo consider to be an excellent plan , and well calculated , if practically carried out , to generate

      a feeling of brotherhood and sympathy between these tradesmen and the working classes . Wc have no doubt bnt that if many of these gentlemen were only waited upon ; they would cheerfull y become honorary members of the Association , aud send their subscriptions regularly to the society . This would very much increase our pecuniary resources , and invest us with additional means to superintend tho generr . l affairs of the Association , and enable us to meet more promptly the application of the vari-ms trades for the interference and assistance of the National

      Association . We have no doubt , we say . but that these gentlemen would become subscribers to our funds , inasmuch as they are weekly depending upon the indastrious portion of the community for their own support ; and they must be fully satisfied , that , if their customers arc bnt ill-remunerated for their labour , they will have less to lay out with the shopkeepers , the provision dealer , and others , and that the less they sell , the smaller will be the --mount of thtir profits " ; and when their profits arc curtailed , their prosperity

      will be impeded , and their general interest * will be very much exposed ; for however their business niay decline , and their income decrease , they will have stiil the same amount of rent and taxes to pay , as though trade was as good as could be desired . The way , therefore , for the tradestucri to eo . - nvft & ad a good sale and a quick return of cash , will be for them to assist the working men to raise the price of labour—to elevate the condition of the industrious- — and , as a natural concomitant , they would be better customers to these gentlemen ; because they would

      have more means at command to obtain the necessaries of life than they now have , and they would be sure to purchase their goods of these tradesmen who were assisting them to maintain a fair price fur their toil . And the shopkeepers , by increasing their sales , would proportionubly increase the amounts of their srotHs . Consequently , it will be to the interests of nuch tradesmen to command a ' fair day ' s wage for a fair day ' s work ; ' and if the working classes wii ] only take up this question with spirit and energy , shopkeepers , provision dealers , and others , would promptly

      respond to their call , and an increase of power and influence would be added to the _ Aascciation ; and the great objects of our combination will tho more easily ard speedily be accomplished . I ' or in addition to an increase of pecuniary aid , that would result from the co-operation of , these parties , we should havo tbeir moral influence , which they would undoubtedly exert to effect an amicable and successful adjustment of any dispute that might arise between Ihe employers and the employed ; and , to > t considerable extent , deter unprincipled employers from further encroaching upon thcrij-hts of industry .

      Let the districts take active steps to appoint select committees for this purpose , and the results will exceed our most sanguine expectations . Let the committee be composed of true and active men , who will be willing and prepared to brave opposition with boldnes . * , to meet difficulties with courage , and ' to hail success with gladness . Let no one be remiss in his duty , and , bright as may be our present prospects , that brightness will be obscured by the superior light that will burst upon our movsment . Another method by which districts would considertbly accelerate the progress of the Association , . voukl bu by their using all the influence they possess among the abovu-iiamed tradesmen , to become consumers of the gooils manufactured by tlie men employed by the National Association . Their custom to ihe Association could easily be solicited by the

      select commit ties in canvassing for honorary members . Some might object to wntvibute a shilling per month to the Association , while they would have no objection to purchase their goods Irom us . Ibis would create for us a retail market I ' m- the sale of our articles-would ijivc us a profit upon . the disposing oi them—and bv that means would assist us to exteuu ottr operations for the improvement and regeneratiou of the working class . But few , indeed , we think would object to purchase a few pairs ol fret stockiti"s , unstained with the blood ot cruelty and wron ' , instead of disgracing their less with slocking * stt-eped is slavery ; and manufactured amid the tears , and groans , and seUVrings of poor frameworkknitters , who are t-oinpclled to toil hard and long , for an uveriige wage ' s of hot more than six or seven shillings per week ; and out of that are subject to several ' reductions in the shape of frame-rent ,

      & c , Ac . What we have said of our s'oekinga , may tie said with respect- to our boots and shoes , our shirting , and our gloves , and every other article of manufacture , produced by the power of the Association , in giving employment to theoppressed and destitute . Let the select committee make it a point to obtain the custom of these gentlemen , that they may boast to all they deal with ' that ' thev no longer are dishonoured by wearing articles manufactured in degraded poverty , and b v a species of slavery more revolting and base than ' ever disgraced the history of tho ' African Negro ; ' and at the same time they will be giving encouragf ment to free and well-paid laboui—aud every othnr

      pair ol stockings , or boots , or shirts , or any articles manufactured by the National Ass-jciation , which they purchased , would be drying tip the tears assuaging the grief , and binding the btoi-ding breaking heart * of the disconsolate , and greatly oppressed and much injured operatives . You will perceive by this how much you can enhance the welfare and prosperity of our nightly confederation ; iii the first place , by procuring honorary members wnovrauld be constant contributors to onr funiis ; and in the second place , you would obtain a number of consumer * " who hitherto have been complctely unacquainted with tbe very , existence of the Assooiatien—say ^ nothing of tho unprecedented efforts aud ' objects ' of the same .

      Another way in which districts could be of great servkcin aaaistiug us in extending our operations , would be by exerting their inflnenca to procure shareholders among the various trades' bodies , and also among the several tradesmen iu their respective localities . By taking up " -hares in the Association lor the Employment of Labour in Agriculture and Manufactures , you would vcrv much facilitate the attainment of ourjubieets , inasmuch as the trades and individual suarchoUletB weiild have a vesttd interest in the Association , and consequently they would feel theinaelves more interested in its prosperity , and he induced from personal adraatage togiveaninh pttui to the movement , and they would feel more anxious to procure a . market for . the safe of thegoods manufactured by the A « aQtitttiou . ,, ¦ -.

      It is with these views the present association ia formed . It is an experiment to try how far the working classes are prepared to act upon the opinions now so prevalent among them , and to clear tho way for those more extensive , comprehensive , complicated , and centralised operations , which must precede the entire emancipation of labour . ; If it succeeds , it will lay a solid foundation for other ' and more comprehensive measures calculated to enhance the well being of the opeialives , and to secure ths interests of the association .

      ( hat this would be a profitable commercial speculation , we have not tho slightest doubts it it is properly and judiciousl y managed , so as ultimately to yield a great interest to the shareholders , while eac & share would considerabl y enhanceits value . in order to form an id ,-a of . the profits to be derived . rom ^ speculation of this description , we will suppose that trades and individuals had taken out 2 $ ) 9 shares , and paid these shares up , that would give ufl a capital of £ 10 , 000 . This sum , to be employed ia manufactures , would bring in n profit of not less than lo per cent per year , that is , supposing we were only able to turn our stock once in the year , but wo should be able to turn it twice or thrice at least . But suppose we onl y turned it twice over in the year , we should realise profit of about £ 2 , 800 , or increase tho value of a io share 10 £ Q Ws . You will therefore see , and be able to point out toshnnlrppnoto nrn .

      vision dealers , and other trades-penpie . thcereat advantages which they would cersonally derive from such a method of applying a small capital upon this principle ot co-operation . To trades collectively / the advantages would bs equally great , inasmuch , as it would enable the trades , to a considerable extent , to draitoff the surplus hands from the labour market , and instead ot exlnuistlns the Innds of the body in supporting men in inlemss , give them profitable employment , ai . d thus render the original capital reproductive . Let the districts take up this question , and use their influence to procure subscribers and shareholders to assist in conducting to a successful issue the National Association .

      Let not another week pass away without the most active exertions being made to pracure honorary members , to create a maiket for our manufactured goods , and to get shareholders for the Association for the Eraploymentof Labour . 15 y this weans we shall augment our pecuniary resources , strengthen moral power , and call forth the reciprocal aid and friendly co-operation of those who have hitherto remained alool from such movements . _ The Central Committee of the above flourishing institution met on Monday , and following days , for the transaction of neneral business .

      A mass of correspondence has been received from every part ot the kim-dom , also adhesions from the tollo-ving trades - -London type-founders , Manchester lath-splittevs . Nuvthwich salt-rankevs , and Northwich salt-rock miners ; also the followin" reports from members of the Central Committee . Mr Peel reported that he attended meetings at Keithley , Barns ' ey , Skilmanthorpe , Conningly , and Bacup , and several eaves of mediation . It will be recollected b y the readers of the NonTHumr Stab , that . carly in June , the power-loom weaver * of Bacup , in , the employ of Mr Aitken and Brothers , had turned out in resistance of a reduction amounting to 3 s . 4 d . in the poand .

      Mr Feel , on arriving at Eacup , found the town ia a state of great disorder , but was fortunately successful in bringing the affair to a satisfactory adjustment , but one certainly to the advantage of the employer . For four or five weeks things went on in a very smooth way . About , this time somedifferenca arose between an employer and a young man , a weaver , which ended in a brutal and unmanly assault upon the weaver by this aentlcman . Legal proceedings were very properly taken , and the people ' s only legal protector . Mr W . P . Roberts , sboa taught Mr Aitken the useful fact , that the law wai still strong enough to protect a poor weaver against

      the ignorant brutality of this man , for the bench inflicted a fine , costs , & c , for the assault . The employer , however , was determined to make them suffer for taking legal proceedings against him . Se he offered a reduction of 2 d . per cut , and that two loom weavers should attend three looms , in fact , requiring tuo men to do the work of three . This being rejected , he served them with notice to leave his employment , and refuses to employ any who havo joined the National Association . Mr Peel is proud to say , that in every quarter ho has visisted , ho finds una all prevailing feeling in favour of the National Association .

      GLITfiERO . —Mr Peel attended here on a case of mediation , on account of some grievances complained of by the power-loom weavers against oneof the employers . The difference was not satisfactorily settled . Still we have strong reason to hope that this visit will be attended with great good . Mr Peel has received a great number of applications from Preston and Blackburn , and numerous places in Lancashire and Yorkshire , where thousand * are only waiting for further explanations and a . revival of trade .

      N . B . —In consequence of a great press of matter for the Stab , the Central Committee have beat obliged to curtail the report .

      O'CONNORVILLE , AND THE NOTTINGHAM ELECTION . Early on Saturday morning , when the news of tht » glorious triumph reached O'Connorville , throughthe medium of the Carrington Secretary , every counteaance beamed with joy , every heart determined to commemorate the auspicious event ; the flag was imme . diatidy hoisted on the school-room tower ' . every gun , musket , and pistol on the estate ! and in the neighbourhood was pnt in requisition , and volley after volley proclaimed to the villages around that it wai a day of gladness to their neighbours at O'Connorville . Our worthy neighbour , Mr Biggs , ascertaining the cause of our rejoicing and cordially responding to it , gave us the use of his meadow , adioinine tho

      location , for a cricket match , in which most of tha allottees , and somcof the neighbours took part ; truly a more pleasant game was never played ; many were tho mistakes , and many the shouts of laughter that followed them , but all was joy and harmony ; the majority of the allottees had never seen the game of cricket played before , much more taken part therein , but all determined , ( induced by the kind offer of Mr Biggs , of the loan of his meadow , bats , ( fee ., ) that they would become proficients in this truly manly and British game . In tke evening , at the conclusion of the match , an immense bonfire was raised in front of the school-room , seats were placed around , and the allottees , their wives , children , friends , and neighbours , jointd in the merry dunce and cheerful

      song , accompanied at intervals by volley of musketry , making the welkin ring with their rejoicing and proclaiming aloud to their aristocratic neighbours , tho Russells , the Grosvetiors , the Clarendons , tho Essexs , and to the world at large , thai political liberty , was as dear to the cultivator of a few acres of soil as it was to the owner of thousands . Among ihe many heart-stirring songs ot the evening , tho ' Marseillis Hymn , ' ' Rally around him , ' ' Spread the Charter , ' * Base oppressors , ' Ac , occupied a prominent space . Mr Knott nf Halifax , by his performance on the vtcdin , and Messrs Fitziimmi of Manchester , Ilornbey of London , aud Oddy uf

      Bradford , contributed greatly to the evening ' s amusement . The proceedings closed at a late hour by-Messrs Wheeler and Oddy proposing a vote of tbanka to the electors of Nottingham , for the noble , manner in which they had performed their duty , which wa * responded to by three times three , as was also the health and long life of our member for Nottingham . Thus ended a day that will long be reinembeted ia the iianals of O'Connorr !!!? , a day of pleasure and delight , for to us Mr O'Connor is doubly endeared ; we look to him not only as a political leader , but also as a father and patron , and tru ? t that he will feci pleased with this demonstration of tho first cf his land children .
