He gave him a prescription , and these pills are prepared accurately from that prescript ! 'in . The patient ' s complaint was a ncrrous oae , afcd it was utterly impossible for any one to be in a worse « ndition than he was ; muscular power was nlsolost in someparts , and his legs fairly tottered under him . He had a box ef ftie pills prepared , and the effects were all but iMirnculoas ; for not only did the nerv 8 U » ness leave him , but muscular power returned to all parts deficient of it .

The Police. Tot^S Edwott Ob The Soaraksm...
THE POLICE . tot ^ s EDWott ob the soaraKSM stab . Bib , —Betas a constant reader of jour "valuable paper , the NoarEcaN Stab , I have often wondered , how It 1 ? , after its-profession of pence , that in many Instances it has , a tendency to set one man agaimt another ; I allude to tb , « rancour against th « police .. Being a policeman myself * have thought I may ba able to obtain some In . fortiafition how it is , aa a body , they are do much appken against , because what has been written and what has bem spoken at Chartist meetings * ms bad a tendency to « rouse iha worst passions of those whoso delight is in doing mischief . We are Rtyled ' bludgeon mon , ' ' co » vernment minions , ' 'brutal police , ' and anything el «« but good men . Permit me to say there are as good men ¦ in the police force as thera Me out of it . Probably you will agree with me , that no situation that a snan ia
tailed to fill necessarily makes him a Rood or bad member of society . I have known those who would help a poor fellow in dis-reo * ; and , as regards Ireland and Englan-i fraternising , without any egotism on my part , I may nay , I tools precedence of those gemlimen who shoi-k hands on the platform in yonder tovra tho other day . I say that I have dene it more eff dually ; for out of my sixteen shillings and alghtpance per week , when I have , ia tho tour of ray duty , found a poor holfstarves Irishman , who has told me his tale of woe , I have taken him to the baker ' s shop and boeght bim somo bread , nod taken him to an inn and given him some drlok , that ho mi f rht be refreshed . Oft have I raeeived a Meaning from poor Irishwomen , end after thoy have passed baveheard thorn say , ' An sure he is a good man . ' I havo 8 ' -en a poor Irishman by the way side with a s'rongfoTer upon him , and , whtn no one else would touch htm , I have not shrunk from my duty , but have assisted or taken him , regardless of disease , to where he
may be taken care of . And when I have read the sonlharrowing accounts of Irish misery , as contained in tbe NoarnEBtf Stak , I havo sickened at the thought of families being turned out of houae and horn ? , iheir cabins burnt to tho ground , and they Uft to perish of cold sod hunger . Though but a poor man mjetlf , nni never had the advantage of being i-ut a Sunday scholar , yet there are many in the ' poHca that have sei n better day , and fill the situation thnt they are now in because they have no other . -As a msmbei' of the Land Company I could wish myself on the land , nbere I could b » more profitably and healthily employed than in tho situation that I now fill , exposed to night air , which is injurl ous te health , and to the aeoff « of the public in ( J < 5 n * ral .

Toe National Petition.. The Following La...
TOE NATIONAL PETITION . . The following latter , testifying the devotion and en . thuslasm of the people , hao been received by Mr 0 Connor - . — We , the inhibitants of tbe Village of Coalsnaughton , assembled in public meeting , on tho 13 th of Mare > , and adopted the National Petition , nnd by reading yout letter to the mooting , fn tho Stab of March 11 th , wo at once chose a committee of twenty , determined to do to the utmost of our power to swell the Petition . Nett day we est to work , the population of th * village amounting to about seven or tight hundred , and frVttfy man and woman , electors and non-electort , signed tbe petition witfe but twoexcept'onii , the one a silly creature
of * schoolmaster , the other a poor labourer . We next pud attention to the outskirts of the BUirouridinp pori-hes , wbereno petition sheets bad bton distributedtho parishes of Alloa , Clackmannan , and D . dlar—and got every man ard woman , with tow exceptions , to s ' gn , Hketvisn the ' navvies' on the railway , we may say to n man . There are a few of tbe Old Guards belonging to this village , working at Forth iron-works , a distance of t- n miles away ; they sent us word that there had hern no nature token up th < re . We lost no time but set off with petition sheets , and B' -t the Old Guards to work with ourselves , and the result wan from thirteen to fourteen hundred weavers , which would have been all lost had wo not repaired thither ,
Wa had a meeting on Saturday last with Tillicoultry and Alva districts , and pgreod to meet on Monday evening to choose a delegate to carry our sheets to Edinburgh , oar number ot signatures being 3 , 038 , Thinking our work was over we were bnppy that we had succeed « d so well in getting bo many signatures , but it tumid out otherwise , for on Sunday night , about eight o ' clock , one of tho Old Guards , who is working at Clackmacnan works , told us that the town of Clackmannan and surrounding works had been entire ! . ? F . eglected ; we imm - diutoly called ia a number of our committee and eight < f us volunteered to start on Monday morning to Alloa
for sheets , and then to Clackmannan , and commence . In one Qaarry wo got about seventy of your eouittrjmon , besides what we got on the railway , and by six o'o ' oolt wa had 1 , 312 aignatures , which makes our number in all 4 . 350 . Now , sir . as you have offered a reward of five pounds and the flag which is to surmount tho petition , as a stimulus for oxcr . lnn in getting signatures , we are of opinion that few can have done bettt r ; : > nd if you think we are entitled to tbe reward , we , in public meeting assembled , do heartily agree that the five pounds remain in your hands , to be disposed of as you may think proper , but we would be proud to obtain the flip .
The next step wo are about to take , is a letter to G « n . Moirisoa , the representative for the counties of Clack , uiftunan ami Kinross , to bo signed by all our electors , requesting him te support the Petition .

To Tbe Editor Of Tub Wobtiiebn Stab. Sib...
TO TBE EDITOR OF TUB WOBTIIEBN STAB . Sib , —About half-past seven o ' clock yesterday morning , tbe men employed in the locomo'ive and carriage departments of tha Eastern Counties Railway , at Stratford , w . rs not a littla surprised by a « q test from some of tbe officers that they would enrol themselves as special constables—a magistrate being ready for that purpose at the Swan Inn , Although the men had not been apprlted that any such sUps wora in contemplation , they , without any previous concert or arrangement , in dividually refused—each asserting that he was ready to do all in his power for the protection of tho company ' s property , in the event of its being attacked , but would nevtr consent to uphtld the existing order of things , or to resist tho psople in their efforts to obtain politic *! enfranchisement , which , if sworn as a special constable , he would be required to do , They sympathised too much with toe movement going ; forward—wito Europe at large—to do that . About twelve , Mr Roney , the
secretary , called five or six Into the office , and endeavoured to persuade them to comply , but it was unavailing—and a meetimjof the ' sbops boing called in tbe dinner hour , it was unanimously resolved : — ' That we ffjil , at tbe rUk of our persons , da oil in our power for tha proteell . m of tho company ' s property , which we can do quite as efficiently without an oath as with one—but we will not consent to bo sworn in as special constables . ' I am happy to say nothing has since bi-en heard of tVe matter . Truly , Sir , tho minds of those who believe that working men aro destroyers , or abettors of those who destroy property , are much abused . Tell your employers , fellow labourers , as wo told ours , thotyou know the rights of property , and the duties of citizens too well to became anarchists aud despoiUrs ; that you respect justice too much to bo unjust to others , in your endeavour to gain that freedom , which will conduce to the good of tho whole ; and you will thus disabuse the winds of thote who are imposed upon , reassure tho timid , and spoil the machinations of the malignant .
Throughout the day a number of persons were sworn in , but tha grsat tnajoriiy of tbe ¦ work ' yog men refused , and many of those who took tbe oath were very reluctant . At seven in tha evening an open-air meeting , at which about 2 , 000 persons were present was held , Tbe meeting was addressed by Mr Donovan , Mr Leach , Mr rTest , and others , who delivered eloquent speeches , which found their way to the hearts of tho assemblage —on the injustice ef our rulers , the necessity of tho Charter , and the duty of attending the Demonstration on Mondayi The greatest order and di oorura prevailed .
and the meeting , evidently much gratified , quietly dispersed , and returned to their respective homes . Ludicrously enough , a magistrate seated oa an omnibus drawn by four horses , paraded up and down tho road , havine the Riot Act ready to read at a moment ' s notice , but the worthy gentleman might just as well have remained at homo with his ' scroll of parchment , ' sensible people only laughing at hira for going to bo much need , less trouble . I am , sir , ' Your obedient servant , Stratford , Essex , April 8 th . H .

These are not times , as you must be prCtty well aware , for persons in high places ( G ^ rranns nnd Coburgs ) to phlrk tko payment of just and lawful demands .

GREAT CHARTIST MEEIING Af 1 UE LITERARY AND SCIENTIFIC WSTITOTE , JOHN-STREET , FITZ & OY-5 QUARL . . , n ..
On Tuesday , April 11 th , this Institute waa again densely thronged . , . Mr Lucas was unanimously caHed to the chair . Mr Adaus , delegate for Glasgow , came forward , loudly applauded , and said : Perhaps the best tbmp they could do was to reviow the proceedings and policy of the Convention . The delegates had been charged with acting a cowardly part yesterday .
( lieav , hear . ) true , he came to the Convention with bis life in bis hand , bjfc htill that was no reason be should commit suicide —( hear , hear)—and he did not think they had showed any want of courage . He had a letter in his pocket which contained this : — ' I should sooner heir of your death than your cowardice . ' ilis sister , also , wrote aa follows : — ' would rather lay your lifeless body in the grave than bear that you were eitlierguilty of bs ' ing a spy or a coward , ' Now , this showed that hia family were' up to the mark . ' ( Tremendous cheering . ) His constituency , also , left it with him whether he should remain in town or not . Ho had never heard anything less from any delegate , but that he was prepared to sacrifice all in their cause , and when the real day of trial arrived , they would all bo found to act wnrthy of Englishmen , Irishmen , and Scotchmen . ( Great c ' -seerini ; . )
Mr Jons Skelton proposed the following resolution : — That this meeting highly approve of the policy of the Convention in preserving the peace . and preventing a collision with the constituted authorities , and thereby preventing an enarmous expenditure of human blood , the shedding of wh ich would luive answered no good end , but would have raado widows sigh and orphans mourn tbe loss of husband and father . ' Moral force was more powerful than physical force It was true government and all our institutions were based on physical force , and why ? because tbe mino- ity made laws for the majority . Mr Robinson seconded the resolution .
Mr Chukchiltj came forward to move the fo'lowing amendmenf . —^ Thatthh meeting , considering them . selves bound to obey the orders of the delegates whom they have elected to represent tbem in the National Convention , submit to the decision adopted on Monday by their representatives , and have no doubt it was diota'ed solely by the beat intentions , and by an earnest fare for the people ' s good . ' Mr Dixon said U was no amendment . Mr Churchill said he would speak to the amendment , and then tlwy could jud ^ e whether it wtis an amendment or not . All governments , except that under the Autocrat of Russia , were making
concessions to the people , whilbt ivigland was adding another chain , and that , too , under those Wiii » s who brought about tbe so-ealled glorious revolution of I 6 S 8 . Their , liberty was not to be got in a day ; a class of masters was not te be converted in a day , — it would take time . He could notshut his eyes to ths fact that almost alt great changes had been fcousht with Wood . But he was willing to make tbe attempt to create the event * that would make England what she ouirht to be . lie tlnught they went to Kennington Common with one idea in their heads , and came back with another , hence he moved his amendment . ( Applause )
Mr Vernon rose to second tha amendment , and said , he should be unworthy of their attention should he , in- these times of danger , create disunion . ( Cheers ) Mr Vernon added some comments on the proceedings at Kennirgron Common , and defended hia own character from certain aspersions cast thereon . Mr V . Djxon thought too much had been said of ph \ sicnl force . Ho c . implained of Mr Vernon . Ho cane to the vnn , and said to Mr Cunv . y , ' Come—we will lead if you will follow , come weal , come woe . ' Now , he ( Mr Dixon ) trusted that on their pla : forra , henceforth , they would not have one man prenchinn moral , and another physical firce , let us have an evennpss of action .

Mr P . ' xov said , that in the National Asf 3 » mbly , London wmiM have eight representatives . ( Cherrs . J Mr John Fussei . l came forward , and proposed the following resolution : — ' That this meeting , having been apprised af the intention of tiie base Whig government of England lo carry amei & ure through parliament , having for its object tho subversion o . the laSt remn : ; nt of British liberty—the right of fredy esprrssing our opinions , both by speaking and writing—we feel ourselves called upsn thus to declare our utter detestation and abhorrence of bo ' rh the measure and the contemptible and brutal ministry from whom it has emanated , and hereby veso ' ve to go on , exercising our just constitutional privilege ? , independent of the tyrannical and despotic enactments of the sarua treacherous , bloodthirsty , and despo'io party . ' Mr Fusaell i in a very able speech , supported the motion . Mr Walter , in a most forcible speech , seconded it amidst loud cheers .
Mr JiitNEsr Jo . ves , amidst rapturous cheering , came fotward to support the motion , This was the third meeting be had attended to-night—one an open-air meeting on Stepney green . It was a glorious meeting . The second one , htld at Farringdnn-hall . was equally glorious . He had heard that they had been unanimous and determined . A gagging bill was about to b 3 passed , at the instigation of Sir George ( Irey ; but that was a reason why he should speak stronger and louder . ( Immense ap & lause . ) The motion was then put , and carried unanimously .
A vote of thanks was given to the chairman ; three cheers for the Convention ; three for the Charter ; three for Feargus O'Connor , M . P . ; three for Ernest Jones , and three groans for the Whiga . — This splendid mteting then separated quietly .

' Let there be Union between us . ' Fellow Countrymen : We address you at this great and iropTtantcrisis in the country , for the purno « j of requesting your co-cpsration , r . nd thereby effecting a union betwstn tbe middle ? . nd working clashes , which must regenerate this country , and re-ires * mir common grievances in a peaceful , legal , and constitutional manner . We have been too long disunited . Wo have , although single ia interest , been made double in action . An aristoora . tic government , that neither knows nor cares W our losses and sufferings , have raade it their principle to sow jealousy and hatred between us , so that they may the more safel . s rule us for their own advantage . This state of
things wo think id wise to have amended—cot that weave without strength , courage , union , and re sources , but to prevent turmoil and revolution . We understand tbe necessity of a moral remedy for our social , politics ! , and eoromercial evils . Wo know full well feat a peaceful change will best suit tbo interests , tbe character , and the commerce of our country ; but that cannot be effected unless the combined middle and working classes demand it . Our prayers , our petitions , our groans , and our agony , have been met with loud laughter and derision by the aristocrats . We appeal to you to prove yourselves anti-revolutionists by joining ns in our just demand for an immediate concession to the people of the principles of the Charter . Had tho whole people
been in possesion of tbe suffrage , and exercised it , only two years ago , the calamities which have befallen us would not havo occurred , because , wjiere the interests of all were represented , the interests of all would havo been protected . Instead of that , we find that the interests of the middle and working classes , both at home and abroad , have been woiully sacrificed , as the following returns of the Board of Trade prove : — Th
1817 , ltdeclined to £ 5 , 867 000 . The home consumption of manufactured goods , chiefly caused by the expenditure of wnges , amounted , in 1845 , to £ 19 , 010 657 ; in 1846 it declined , as wages fell , to £ 16 , 881 , 605 ; and in 1847 , when there has been , as it were , half work , half wages , and in some iastances , neither work nor wages , tho home demand upon our manufactured goods has fallen todCO 500 000 ihia proves that we are on the gliding scale of * uin ' and no wonder that you middle classes complain of emoty tills , diminished profits , and increased taxes . Yen are bound inseparabl y with ns . If wages decline , so must profits fall i and if nrufita f *; itu «^
„ tner , capital must disappear , and the means of erap loying us . be cut off altogether . Through "the incapacity , ignorance , or design of the aristocrats , the principles of Free Trade have been totally per ^ verted and destroyed , and all benefits rendered null and void . £ 33 , 008 , 000 of our gold have baen exported , and our commercial firms have failed to the exact amount of £ 80 , 000 , 000 , simply because there was no Government or National Bank to accommodate our manufacturers . They , although possessing sufficient real property , could procure no credit , Tho workshops and factories were closed , wages ceased , and home Gonsumption dwindled , to th ™ i B Z »~
bairBBBment of you , the middle class's The Charter would have prevented thos ^ , i «„ u ,, ble malta , beoaw the interests of the { Spfe uaye dictated to them the absolute necessity of keep jag facto ™ and workshops in full work , by won £ umediato' accommodation to m ihm & ckw

Wd think thac a National Credit so opened m ^ k % § i better defended than a National Dabc fa ^ J | pt poses , bloodshed , and destruction .

J . 'ffjSJii watchful government would have averted all . B ^ ll ^ when are the aristocrats watchful except for tbcjj || f | jii own interest ? We want tbe interest . " , the propertt fell
and the persona of all above twenty-one years of ajl ' lf ^ ijii to be represented . We « xelude the maniac , becau ' u ' ^ f ^ sll it has pleaded the Almighty to disfranchise hinj K fjlfcj taking away his reason . We exclude the felon \ ¦ $% Ciuss he has injured society . Wo include all ^ K iS ^ a by head or hand do ; any duty . Every man who pe ^ || C forms a duty we think ought to exercise a r / gbt , gJ ; . l , ^ especially the right ef destroying a bad law , or r & Mtii moving an aristocratic tax . Do ' you object to thatjfj ' -lta If you do , and have intelligent sons , young men' ^ 'Mii great capacity and youthful generosity , yon disf ^ :-m ehise them by refusing" Ihe Charter . You cut J $ ' & the sptings of intelligence—you sunder the nourish . ' % ing roots of the secial tree . The life and energy m : % the nation is not in the gilded palace of the arJsk W <* crat . It now slumbers unsought , unused , but no * ' ' . « demanded , behind the counters and desks of tb f $
middle classes , and behind the loom , and at tie ¦• • ' ! benches of the working classes . Mi Ftfllo ^ Countrymen ,-- The limitof this paper will fjM not permit us toenter into ail tho causes aud effects -ftji of class-legislation , misrule , and oppression . Bat ; % we may say that we are opposed to all taxes upon in ! ^ dustry and perseverance , whether expressed b y aj : §| income-taX j or taxes on the necessaries of life . ' Vf ' - ^ l < de » ire to limit the expenditure of government , and $ ty thereby diminish even necessary taxes , and whatever ' ' $
may bs necessary , we thi ;; k , ouaht t . > bo levied , afl { f $ from the man who is struggling to acquire propert y i' % but from tbe man who has it , and even upon hira i ' fi ^ should fall liahtly . We likewise tbmlc that all tn . Te J' U { collected from the people should be expended for tha '•¦ benefit of the peop ' e in the impr jvercent of f . ur towns ' . v harbours , streams , and commerce , and not in snnl •' ¦ porting an id eandjdis-olute autocracy , nor for wai ¦ ' 4 purposes . We seek an equitable adjustment of tbe ^ national debt , that shall neither be injurious to th . § £
national credit nor national creditor , but beneficial to ' ¦ - % the whole people . ft | We desire the utmost scope to be given to com , ^ merce . aswe wre as deeply interested through oni ^ wages in steady demand , as yon are in supply throusl $ your profit . 6 y In short , fellow countrymen , we want to thr o * $ aside the dead weight that has pressed so heavilj ' ! upon our energies . Capital , commerce , and labonr ' # must be free ! shall be free of all burdens , if yon , - fellow countrymen , will i . in us .
The Uou ? e of Commons will rec ? ive our petitioa with loud and ^ derisive laughter . The government sensibly weak , will not expose it b y granting ill concessions , We appeal to you to prevent blood shed .
If that and other peaceful , moral , and , as our pre . cession j esterday proved , majestic appeals , fail , thej we have but one alteraatiyele f t us—en alternative wo wish to avoid , but which we fear is inevitable , We nratt , as a lastalcernative , appeal to the peoole , and , through their ardent and patriotic prayers te the Almighty , who has claimed the poor and op . pressed as bis children . Your property , your persons , and your houses , shall be relisiously respected and protected , when the last extremity is forced upon us by an aristocratic government . May God defend the right ! is tbe sincere and heartfelt prayer of your lriends , the memhew of the Council of the National Charter Association of Not . lingham . Citarlrs Roberts . Chairman . „ .

( Hear , hear . ) For his pnrt ho was sick of petitioning ; ho would petition no more . The laJt petition to Which be would ever append bis name would bo rolhd into the House of Commons on j . \ foaday next , to be treated , as all previous petitions had ! beon , with scorn and contempt . The Times had called 1 upon the government to suppress the Chartist Convention not . sitting in London , He usked , would the people stand quietly by and tee tho lost remnant of their rights wrested from their hands ? ( Loud cries » i
'No , no ! ' ) Hither than despotic power should ba al . ' lowod to crush their last liberties , he had resolved , come weal , come wo , to use every means which he could com . maud . Tho wolf preys upon tbo kmb , the vulture upon tho dove , and the middlo clats preyed upon the poor . If every man felt th * t his liberty rested in his own hsnds , twenty-four hours would not pass till the star ol freedom ahone over tho land . Should their petition ba rejected on Monday , he asked if they woro prepared for further action ? \ Yers they prepared to mskt themselves heard , and , if need be , felt ? If they wen not , signinu petitions wa » of no use .
