      - Monday , June 18. /T House Of Lords.—T...

      stratms * the impolicy of establishing ^ a colony throug h the medium of . an absent proprietary from tin examples ofthe American colonics , which bad flourished of languished according as they were founded by resident or absent proprietors - and he argued that , upon general principles , a company must , from ite very constitution , pursue its own individual interests *; of all companies , for the purpose of colonisation , the Hudson ' s-bay Company being , he - contended , «* e worst , as it was a strict monopoly governed bydespotic maxims . After briefly glancing at tbe defects in some parts of the original title of the company , Lord Lincoln proceeded to consider their conduct with relation to the natives and the colonists in that portion of their territory where

      their rights admitted of no question , namely , the cxtensice districts west of the Rocky ^ Mountains , in ordsr to prove the impropriety of confiding to this company the colonisation of Vancouver ' s Island . The charges against the company comprised the Eegteei of religious instruction , and the encouragement of the sale of spirits amongst the aborigines ; the abuse of their rigid monopoly , not only by charging arbitrary prices for their commodities , hut * by ~ giving most inadequate rewards to the Indians ; and the graver charges , that murders had been frequently perpetrated by the company ' s ser-Tants , and capital punishments in some instances illegally inflicted by them ; and he adduced evidence in support of these several charges . He adverted

      to the complaints alleged against tbe company by the Red River settlers since the transfer of the settlement by Lord Selkirk ; he examined theresuits obtained by the inquiries into the charges against the company , none of which , he maintained , had been satisfactorily refuted , whilst many had been substantiated ; and contended that it was an abandonment of their duty on the part of the government to hand over Vancouver ' s Island to such a body , which was actuated , moreover , as alleged , hy an anti-colonising spirit and a horror of publicity . In considering tbe object of interposing this company in the scheme for colonisation of the island , he contended that no part of their capital could be diverted from a lucrative investment to the

      purposes of colonisation , for which the island was well adapted , and looking at the mighty objects to which the western coast of America was destined , it was highly important that a free and independent British colony should be established in Vancouver's Island . Lord Lincoln then showed the improvident terms of the charter , and argued that the advantage taken of them by the company would tend to deter settlers ; and contended that tbe conditions of forfeiture at the end of five years if no colony be founded , and that in 1859 the Crown would be at liberty to purchase out the company ' s rights , afforded no real security , the last offering a premium upon had government .

      Mr . Hume seconded the motion , although be considered its terms not sufficiently strong , the acts of ihe Colonial-office in this matter callm * for direct condemnation . Every one of tbe conditions was contrary to the policy which a wise man would pursue in establishing a colony ; and the sacrifice of public interests in this case showed that no Minister should be allowed to make a . grant of this kind without the previous sanction of the House . At this moment notice was taken that forty members were not present ; the House was counted , and the number being only thirty-seven , an adjournment took place at half-past eig ht o ' clock .

      WEDNESDAY , Jura 20 . HOUSE OP COMMONS . —The - ; Cocxr Out . " —Two discussions took place with reference to the -count out ofthe previous evening on Lord Lrvcou- 's motion on the subject of the grant of Vancouver ' s Maud to the Hudson ' s Bay Company , the noble lord complaining that the discussion had been cut short through the instrumentality of one of the whippers-in of tbe government . He should , however , renew his motion on an early day . Mr . TcrxEit , disc ' aimed having done so , having retired from the house in consequence of indisposition .

      Lord Lincoln did not allude to the hon . gentleman , hut to Lord Marcus Hill . - The Attokxet-Generai . thought when tbe noble lord made this complaint , he ought to have calculated on what was likely to result from so lengthy an address as that which the noble lord had delivered . Mr . Giadsto . ve was quite sure there had been no intention on the part of the government to get rid of ibis motion , but he would suggest that they should now name a day for its renewal . Mr . Laboccuere expressed his regret at the

      untimely end which the discussion had come to , but must protest against the doctrine that the government were bound to keep a House , and pointed out that there were seven members of the government present at the time of the count out , while all the ooble lord ' s friends present did not amount to that number . He thought the noble lord ' s influence among those on the side ofthe House on which he sat ought to have been sufficient to keep a House . He could not name a day for resuming the discussion , in tbe absence of Lord J . Russell . Mr . TBEL-tWXEY said that for some time that he was in , ihe noble lord ( Lincoln 1 was not himself

      present . The Earl of Lixcoi ^ j admitted that he was accidentally absent for a few minutes . He had never said that it was the duty of a government to keep a House . "What he did say was , that there was an attempt made to prevent a House being made . "When tke House was made , the only member of the government who was present was tbe bon . and gallant member for Greenwich . He also said , and he now repeated it , that ihe noble lord to whom was entrusted the duty of mustering the government forces , had exerted himself for a considerable period to reduce the House below the nnmber requisite to keep a House—that , in fact , tbe gentleman who was technically known as the "

      whipperin" had , on this occasion , whipped the members out of the House . ( Laughter . ) [ The noble lord ( Lord Marcus Hill ) here entered the House , amidst loud cheers and laughter ; andthe noble speaker reiterated in Ms presence the charge that he had been making aginst him . ] Lord M . Hill begged to assure the noble earl that he had taken no open measures whatever to have the House counted . ( Loud laughter . ) An hon . -friend of histoid him that it was his intention to count out the House , and he certainly did not take any steps to dissuade him from it . ( Laughter . ) He did not take any decided steps to induce members to leave tbe House . ( Lauarhter . )

      The Earl of Iaxcozs wished to hnow whether the uohlelorddidnotsaytoanhon . gentleman whom he met coming into the House , "So not go in , the House is about being counted ? " ( Laughter . ) Lord M . Hill might have said something of that iind to an hon . member . ( Laughter . . But that did not imply any attempt on Ms part to have the House counted . ( Laughter . ) Mr . Slaxet deprecated the practice of counting out the House , which he thought a very hard and crueL case . ( Laughter . ) Hut he thought that questions aifecting the working classes haa a right to be as much attended to as a question relating to "Vancouver ' s Island . ( Hear . )

      Sxemptiox of Literary Societies , and Ixstitij tjoss pbom Local Rates . —In reply to a question fiom Mr . TV . Browx , TbeATTOHXEY-GEXERiLsaidj that a bill had heen proposed to him on this subject to two ofthe provi sions of which he entertained considerable objection . Tie-one was that the adjustment of a dispute should he effected by the trial of an issue at the sessions , a course which would lead to litigation and expense ; the other objection was to the creation of a new office for registration . He thought that tbe machinejy = ofthe registry of friendly societies should be made . available . In reply to questions by Mr . M . Ginsox and Mr . Bright .

      The A ^ sroK-sEY-GEXERAi . said , that he would do all he could to-premotea measure which did not contain the clauses . to -which he objected , but whether the government , would think it expedient to introduce the measure . was another question . He could pot say whether such a measure would he introduced or not . Marriage Bill . —The question having been put for resuming . the adjourned debate on the second reading of this bill , * Mr . >~ AFiEE , opposed the bill on various grounds ; ihe same course being taken by Mr . Gladstone . Tke speakers is support of the second reading , with qualifications on the part of the Latter hon . member , were the Lord ^ Ad vocaxs and Colonel Tbompsoj * . 3 ur . 6 , "WoBTMiiaving replied , the Bouse divided , when . the second reading was carried by a majority of tiurfy-four—the numbers , 177 to 143 , and the House adjourned at six o ' clock .

      THUESDAY , Jche 21 . HOUSE OF COMMONS . —Sxate or the Nation . —In compliance with a request isade to him by Mr . Disraeli , Lord Jobs Sussell set , apart Monday , Jul y 2 nd , for tbe discussion of the hen . gentleman ' s motion on the state of the nation . . £ § CALISATIOS « r THE POOS RjtfES . —Lord XUGEXT , inasjjoechof detaSfi illustrative of the inequality of rating f 0 r the j-efcf of the poor in various parishes and districts , jnoved for u » appointment of a committee to inquirejuto the practicability of better providing Cor the indigent poor of England and Wales , hy an equal and . general apportionment of the burden ofthe same . " __ Mr . Badces considered the proposition of throwing the relief of the poor upon the general revenue to be a most mischievous one . ' and calculated to have a . pernicious effect upon the country , and called " upon the House to resist the motion . :

      Mr . Macsissoi * \ and Mrv Bboihbbjok opposed ihemotion .:. ^ ,-- . * ..:: .. ; ... __ - . Mr .

      drawal of the motion , and aspecch from Col . Dunne , having reference to Irish immigi-ants to Liverpool , Lord IJugent replied , and strangers were ordered to withdraw , the motion ultimately being negatived without a division . " . . ¦ " National Education ( Irelaxd . ) —Mr . G . a . Hamilton , in a speech illustrative of the difference existing between the National Board and the Protestant clergy of Ireland , on the subject of educa tion , moved , " That an address be presented to her

      Majesty , praying that she will be graciously pleased to direct that such a modification ofthe system of National Education ia Ireland may be made , as may remove the conscientious objections which a large proportion of the clergy and laity of the Established Church entertain to that system as at present carried into operation ; or , otherwise , that means may be taken to enable those of the clergy and laity of the Established Church who entertain such conscientious objections , to extend the blessings of Scriptural Education in Ireland . "

      Mr . Sapier seconded the motion , which was supported by Lord Bernabd , Sir A . Brooke , Mr . Newdegate , and Lord . Claude Hamilton ; and opposed by Sir "W . Somerville , Mi * . Moore , Lord John Russell , and Mr . KErxotns . ' On a division the motion was negatived by a majority of 60 , the numbers 102 to 162 . Two new bills were introduced , and others advanced a stage ; a division taking place on the Marriages ( Scotland ) Bill , which went into committee , but without any progress being made , and the House resumed and adjourned .

      ( Irom our Third Edition of lost week . ) Beer Shops . —The Earl of Harkowby , after referring to tbe alleged evils arising from the great number of bet r shops throughout the country , moved for a select committee , m order to obtain evidence on the subject , which might lay the ground for legislative interference . HOUSE OF COMMONS . —Canada Rebellion Losses Act . —Tbe adjourned debate on this bill was resulted by Dr . NiciiOLL , who after reviewing the enactments contained in the act . expressed the opinion that Lord Elg ' m must have sanctioned the act under the mistaken idea that he had the power of imposing further limitations as to tbe recipients of compensation , which did not appear to be the case ; and ,

      therefore , for the sake of the loyal subjects of Canada , he trusted the act would not be confirmed . The Attorney-General declined entering into the merits of the question at issue ; but , in the discbarge of his duty , placed before the House his construction of the act . In answer to questions put the previous evening , the hon . and learned gentleman replied that the Crown could not qualify the act , it must either g ive its assent or negative" the act bywithholding it : and that Lord Elgin , deriving bis authority from an act of the legislature confirmed by the sanction of the Crown , bis instructions must follow his power , and the power must he strictly executed . Having a delegated authority with certain qualifications , he could not exceed that authority and usurp to himself a control or exercise of power which could not be exercised by the Crown .

      A long discussion ensued between Mr . H . Dhummoxd , Mr . V . Smith , Mr . Hume , and Sir W . Molesworth , against Mr . Herries ' s amendment ; and by Mr . Uewdegate , JLr . A ^ stey , 3 Jr . Baskes , and Mr . Dishaeu , in favour of it . Sir R . Peel said that he could not become a party to a proposition which he believed would be destructive of tbe principle of representative government , or to consent to an interference in the affairs of the colony , and with those local concerns with which tho House must be imperfectly

      acquaintedan interference which might cloud the prospect of a long , a permanent , and a cordial connexion with a colony , in the welfare and prosperity of which England ought to feel tbe deepest interest . Lord J . Russell , combatted the arguments adduced hostile to the views of the government , and called upon the House to vote against a proposition which would damage the connexion between the mother country and this noble province , and endanger their future relations with every colony in which Great Britain was interested .

      On a division , the amendment of Mi * . Hermes on [ the report of supply , that being the form in tvhich the question was put , was negatived by a majority of 141 , the numbers 291 to 150 , and the resolution of the grant for colonial service was agreed to . The Transportation for Treason ( Ireland ) Bill was read a first time and after a question from Mi-. Reynolds on the subject of the bill , the House adjourned .

      Financial And Parliamentary Reform. On M...

      FINANCIAL AND PARLIAMENTARY REFORM . On Monday evening , a meeting ofthe inhabitants of tho borough of Finsbury was held in Sadler's Wells Theatre , for the purpose of supporting the views and objects of the Metropolitan Parliamentary and Financial Reform Association . Sir J . Walmsley in the chair . Before entering upon the business ef the evening , letters from several gentlemen apologising for their un . voidable absence , were read . Amongst the names were those of Messrs . W . J . Fox , E . Miall , C . Lushington , . T . Wafcley , and T . Buncombe , who in his note enclosed a check for £ 10 , to be applied to the purposes ofthe association . The chairman in his address to the meeting , referred to the great inequality in the present system of representation , both as regarded the numbers of people

      and the amount of property represented . These evils could only be met by an extension of the suffrage to every adult male who paid anything towards tbe poor rates , by a more equal apportionment of the electoral districts , and also by the abolition ofthe property Cjualification . In addition to these it was the conviction of the members ofthe association that the principle of voting by ballot and triennial parliaments were essentially necessary to that which it was their object to attain—a full , free , and fair representation of the people in Parliament The chairman , in conclusion , said—if we could persuade our fellow ^ Reformers ( the Chartists ) , who seek the franchise , to believe that we arc really

      honest in our professions—if we could convince them that we can carry our measures , and will carry them , if we have their support , and that we cannot without it—if I could induce them to join heart and hand with us in advancing this great movement , I would promise them that we will never forsake them until we have obtained a full , and fair , and free representation of the people in Parliament . ( Hear , hear . ) But , in order to obtain this , they must make sacrifices for a time ; they must be satisfied to go with those who do not wish to go the whole ofthe way . Let us show them that we are worthy of the franchise which we seek , and they will ultimately be ready to join with us to the fullest extent . ( Hear . )

      Mr . George Thompson , M . P ., proposed the first resolution , and said , I come amongst you to state my deliberate conviction , founded upon the experience of two Parliamentary sessions , that no radical or even large reforms in the financial , ecclesiastical , or colonial systems of this country can be expected , without a previous change in the representative system . ( Cheers . ) The question now for you to consider is ,- whether , in seeking further changes , and the removal of existiug grievances , you will adopt the old method , and resort to an expensive , protracted , and exhausting system of agitation , to effect a partial reform , or whether you will lay the axe at the root ofthe tree , and direct your energies to there-constitution ofthe House of Commons , to

      the carrying of such a measure of real bona fide Par liamentary Reform as will render all other reforms comparatively easy , inexpensive , practicable , and speedy of attainment . I hesitate not to say , I infi nitely prefer the latter course of proceeding . Reject it , and you may have a twenty years' agitation on one subject , a fifteen years ' agitation on a second , and a ten years' agitation ou a third . Some one question will take the lead and throw the others into the back ground for an indefinite period . It will often be a struggle of purse rather than princi ple ; of the pecuniary means of the parties more immediately interested than of the real and sterling merits of the question ; and those will triumph who can print the largest number of tracts .

      employ the most lecturers , take the theatres of the metropolis , and enlist the public press on their side . I know that , should the _ middle classes refuse a coalition with the working and unenfranchised classes , they have still the power to advance the cause of reform ; but it is a power they can exercise only by the process I have described . But take parliamentary reform as your first object and you adopt the wisest and most potent means to the attainment of all your other legitimate and con-Btitutional ends . ( Hear , hear . ) The number of the qualified electors of the three kingdoms is a standing and notorious insult to the common aense , the virtue , the patriotism , the loyalty , and the religion of the people of this Christian country . ( Hear , hear . ) Were a foreigner to stand up and « ay that throughout England , Ireland , Wales , and Scotland , out of twenty-eight millions of inhabitants , anly 800 , 000 could be trusted to have a' voice ia the

      election of representatives to the Commons House of Parliament , ihere is scarcely an old-fashioned Tory in existence who would not resent such an assertion as a gross libel upon the population of his native land . ( Hear , hear . ) Let us unite to get rid of so unenviable and disgraceful a distinction amongst the reformed and self-reforming nations of Europe —Russia only excepted . ( Cheers . ) In looking forward to future events , I confes I gather but small comfort from the assurance given by the minister that we have so many troops ofthe line , and so many pensioners who may be called out at a short notlee-T- ^ laughter)—and so many , armed and mounted constabulary , and so many militia . and yeomanry , and so many provincial and metropolitan police ;; and in . store , if needed , to be used against S 0 MnaA JW 1 land * , the fc ^ S arguments of fo , 000 , 00 O of ball-cartridges , and 170 , 000 barrels lfiM / BO sand-bagfi- ^ ioud fcu £ hter ) --for , gentle-

      men , do hot be led away by the assurance that these things are only prepared for the possible contingency of an invasion , or to be used on foreign service . ( Loud cheers . ) You have but to revert to the 10 th of . April , 1848 , to ascertain the fact that these are seriously intended for the working and disfranchised classes of her Majesty ' s subjects , if they should ever dare to menace by open force— I will not say our beloved Queen upon the throne—but the comfort and security of those who call themselves her advisers . ( Hear ) I for one do not choose that tho peace of this kingdom should be guaranteed by any such means . Let them keep their powder dry , and pile up their cannon balls , count over their ball cartridges , and multiply their sandbags , andgo ori

      casting those broad-mouthed bellowing pieces or argument that never yet uttered an argument which a tiger might not have uttered . ( Cheers and laughter . ) We will meet them , and fight them , and beat them—and gain a bloodless victory , with weapons which never made a widow or an orphan . "We go then , first and foremost , for Parliamentary Reform ; and we are here for the purpose of enlisting recruits who are willing to enter our ranks in this cause . A change in the representative system that shall add 3 , 500 , 000 or 4 , 000 , 000 to the electoral roll ofthe United Kingdom , together with the extension ofthe Suffrage to this extent ; the safety and shelter of the "Vote by Ballot ; in addition to these a quicker reckoning of accounts between electors and

      their representatives ; a reckoning that shall , at the longest , not be deferred more than three years—a breaking up of the close and rotten borough nomination system , and the more equal ^ apporfcionment of members to constituents . I think I am in my own person an instance of tho necessity of the change here sought for ; there are are eighty-two gentlemen in the House of Commons representing constituencies , which , put together , and every elector in the registries counted , do not make up so many as those to whom I made my appeal in the Tower Hamlets . Then finally this society goes for the abolition of the Property Qualification for a seat in the House of Commons , that the man who has intellect , and moral worth , and political talents ,

      and the confidence of the people , may not be excluded from the House of Commons because he does riot derive £ 300 or £ 600 a year from real or personal estate , or because ho is not returned for a Scotch borough , or because he is not the son of a peer , or because his father has not landed property enough to entitle him to be a knight of the shire . Such is the scheme of Parliamentary Reform proposed by this society . Now the friends who nave originated this movement have , as I think , very wisely resolved that as they proceed they will not overlook the existing means of enfranchisement on the one hand , nor the discussion of state abuses on the other . They will at all meetings like the present , as well as by the diffusion of their

      publications , lay bare the financial system of the country , embracing the inequality of taxation—the injuries done to commerce , to trade , to health , and ^ to domestic enjoyment by certain methods of taxation —the manner in which the people are hoodwinked and juggled by the tortuous , invisible , round-about , and Great-Wizard-of-the-North-like mode in which the taxes are raised—the keeping out of sight of six or seven millions of taxes , by allowing them to be intercepted and appropriated in their way to the exchequer—and the evasion of the rich , the titled , andthe aristocratic , ofthe burden of which they should bear the largest part . They will also look at the expenditure ofthe national income , with a view to tbe reduction of our warlike establishments ,

      naval , military , and ordnance ; the abatement of jobbing in those establishments which the nation actually requires * , the curtailment ofthe needless waste of the monies taken from the imperial treasury for colonial purposes—bishops included —( cheers and laughter)—tho striking off of pensions enjoyed by persons who have no claim upon the public purse ; the bringing down of the salaries of public functionaries to a level with the value of their performances and the circumstances of the country ; ahd tho refusal of monies raised for national and general objects to those which are of a religious and sectarian character . "When the votes of parliament shall be analysed it will be found that our taxes are levied , and when raised are expended ,

      by men who have a direct or very near interest in first putting the burthen upon the shoulders of the working and middle classes , and then in keeping up the extravagances of the state , that they may share in the distribution of the good things connected with that system of extravagance . It will be found also that these men do not really represent the large constituencies of the country , but those small manageable and venal boroughs , which are either theproperty of particular persons , or may be influenced by the bribes which such men are not reluctant to offer and to pay , in order that they may afterwards put their hand into the national purse . The hon .

      gentleman concluded , amid loud cheers , by moving the following resolution : — " That theabsence of a really representative House of Commons—the preponderance of class legislation—the unequal pressure of taxation—the general extravagance of the public expenditure—and the consequences of these evils engendering discontent , and threatening disorders fatal to the political and to the social prosperity of this empire , render the combination of the middle and working classes , for the attainment of the reform advocated by the Metropolitan Parliamentary and Financial Reform Association , a matter of momentous importance to the state . "

      Mr . Purdav seconded this resolution , which was carried nem . eon . ; and others of a similar tendency were proposed and carried , several gentlemen , amongst whom were Messrs . Clark and M'Gkath , of the Chartist Executive , addressed the meeting in support of them . The meeting , which was a very crowded one , the theatre being filled in every part , separated at a late hour , after a vote of thanks to the chairman .

      TO THE WORKING CLASSES . ( Concluded from tiie First page . ) Now I do not think that I could map out m j plan as a miniature and full-length portrait o ]

      - FREEDOM FOR THE MILLIONS " more concisely ; and next week I hope to communicate the enrolment of another plan underthe Building Societies Act , established for the henefitof the very poorest , by which men paying from threepence a week to five shillings , or any other amount ,, will be sure of from one to eight acres , a certain amount of land being purchased when a sufficient amount , of money comes in , and that by continuing those weekl y subscriptions for twelve years or rather under , each man will he , not the tenant , hut the owner of his allotment : and should the

      Queen's Bench refuse to register the present Land Company , which I hy no means anticipate , I would propose . that that Company should merge into the enrolled Company ; and that the amount paid up hy every member in the present Company should he placed to his credit in the enrolled Company ; while those who wish to Avithdraw their monies from the old Company would be at liberty to do so , as , in case of non-registration , the House of Commons is hound , according to the unanimous recommendation of the Committee , to enable me to wind up the affairs ofthe Company , and then the property would pay more than 2 ( k in the pound ; while I must protest against

      parties who have paid from 10 s . to 5 / ., or any amount , into this Company , constantly writing to me for permission to withdraw their monies which have heen already expended ; and there is one circumstance to which I must draw the attention of all , and it is this — that enrolment and registration were forced upon me , and that hut for those steps not a single obstacle would have stood in our way , and , therefore , the parties themselves are the aggressors . Again requesting an immediate response , I remain , your faithful and unalterable Friend and unpaid Bailiff , Feakgus O'Connor .

      P . S . —I never had any great objection to racing sweeps , except that I thought it a grievance that pothouse gambling , by ballot , should not onl y be permitted but encouraged while freedom speculation by ballot was considered illegal . But I will tell you what the yerypoorestmaydo , as regards this Land Purchase Company , they niay pay in classes ; one class 5 s . hy weekly payments , another class 10 s . by weekly payments , another class 11 . by weekly pa ^ -monts ; and those classes , without any infringement of the Jaw , may ballot for

      South London Hall. A Densely-Crowded Pub...

      SOUTH LONDON HALL . A densely-crowded public meeting , in favour of the People ' s Charter , was held on Wednesday evening , June the 20 th . ¦ ... Mr . Thompson having been called to the chair , read a letter of apology from Mr . G . W . M . Reynolds , which stated that he was detained at homo by indisposition , and said the object of the meeting was to petition the House of Commons in behalf of the People ' s Charter , which was a strictly legal course , and , although not liked by some , he did not know any other course open , except that of using the Registration Courts and creating public opinion . Mi-. T . Clark rose to move the first resolution , when

      Mr . Straiten jea'd an extract from the Morning Advertiser of Mr . Clark ' s speech at Sadler ' s "Wells Theaire , and asked where Mr . Clark got bis authority to say that the Chartist body had or would unite with tho Parliamentary and Reform Association 1 Mr . M'Grata was also included , and , of course , those gentlemen would explain .. Ah-. Clark then came forward , and entered into an explanation , which met with considerable applause . He had simply stated at that meeting his own opinion , and that which he was delighted to find so many advocated—principles approximating to our own—yet he , for one , could never give up one iota of the People's Charter . ( Loud cheers . ) Mr . Clark then moved the first resolution , but before

      doing so read a note from Feargus O'Connor , M . P ., stating that he was detained at home on business of importance , with a man from Worcestershire , who could not remain in town longer than that evening , and hence lie could not arrive at the meeting before half-past nine o ' clock , when , if possible , be would attend . Mr . Clark then read the following resolution : — " That it is the opinion of this meeting , that the grievous burthens , privations , and sufferings , wlr . cli the great mass of the people of Great Britain and Ireland have long endured , and of which they still have just cause to complain , arise from , and are the results of , class legislation , and this monstrous system will not be removed , nor a wise and

      just state of society established , until the House of Commons is made a reflex of the whole people . " In speaking to the resolution , Mr . Clark mentioned the glorious Roman Republic and its inestimable Triumvirs . They were bailed with rapturous applause . Mr . M-Gratu , in seconding the resolution , justified what he had said at Sadler ' s Wells , but which was not correctly reported in the Advertiser , and his sentiments wore loudly applauded . He then eloquently supported the resolution , which was carried unanimously . Mr . W . Dixon then moved the Chartist petition , in a speech in which he showed forth the social reforms attainable by the Charter , which elicited the warmest approbation .

      Mr . Stallwood seconded the adoption ofthe petition , which was carried unanimously . A vote of thanks having been given to the chairman , three cheers for the Charter , three for Hungary , and three for the glorious Republic of Rome , the meeting separated .

"William Dixon having been called to tho chair , the following letter was read from Feargus O'Connor , Esq _ ., M . P ., amidst great applause : — London , June 18 th , 18 i 9 . Sir , —Will you have the goodness to communicate to the meeting that it was my intention to have been present , but that I am prevented in consequence of the case of Mr , Smith O'Brien and the other State prisoners being now hefore tho House , and as the question is , whether they

      shall bo transported or set at liberty , I imagine that if they lost tlieir freedom by losing my vote , that you would consider my absence from the House a . greater disappointment thau my absence from the meeting . Have the goodness , however , to assure those present , that I iim as resolute in their cause as I ever was , and as determined as ever to persevere . I trust that my apology will be received as a justifiable excuse for my ahsence ; and also that the meeting will believe that I am the loser , as I would much rather address your House , than the House . Let ' * The Charter and no Surrender , " be your motto . Your faithful friend , Feaimics O'Connor . To the Chairman of tbe meeting at Milton-street Theatre .

      A letter was also read from Sir Joshua Walmsley , M . P ., ( who was attending the great Finsbury meeting ) , in which he stated his willingness either to present the memorial to the Queen , or the petition to the House of Commons . ( Loud cheers . ) Letters were also read from J . Bright . G . Thompson , J . Hume , and Charles Pearson , Members or Parliament , pleading excess of business as their reasons for non-attendance .

      TO THE QUEEN ' S MOST EXCEXIENT MAJESTY , The respectful Memorial of the inhabitants ofthe City of London , in public meeting in the Theatre , Milton-street , assembled the 18 th day of June , 1819 : — Sheweth , That during and from the years 1847 — 1848 , to the present time , a great . dearth of employment had prevailed and prevaileth among your Majesty ' s industrial subjects . That such want of employment has led to much social misery , destitution , wretchedness , discontent and disaffection . That the wants , wishes , and desires of the people were in a great measure unheeded by the Legislature of these realms . That great musses of your Majesty ' s industrial subjects censequcntly became excited by this apparent inattention to tlieir manifold wrongs , . . . That men of genius , talent , and humanity , moved by the sufferings of their fellow men , devoted themselves as advocates in the great cause of human redemption through political freedom , and social amelioration !

      That in the warmth of their feeling and in their zeal for the cause they had espoused , they were led to sundry indiscretions not allowed by law . That your Majesty ' s omcers in vindicating the majesty of the law , have caused many of those men to be incarcerated for sundry lengthened periods of imprisonment in your Majesty ' s gaols of England . Scotland , and Ireland , and others to he expatriated to Foreign climes . That such imprisonment has caused many an otherwise happy family , deep pangs of sorrow and of misery , causing children to bewail the loss of their fathers , and wives to bemoan the separation from affectionate husbands , and fond fathers .

      That Great Britain and Ireland is at the present time in a state of profound peace and quiet , notwithstanding the continueddearthofieaiployment , political thraldom , - and social misery . That your meaioriauXts are ofopJmom that the lengthened imprisonmeat -that ; the men now suiftring for political ofliaices Ijave already . endured , nill he . oa a mercifuleonsiderationofyourl ^ jesty deemed by-vour Majesty sufficient to expiate any famscuetion and illegal acts , of which your Majesty's jurors and judges pronounced them guilty .

And your Majesty ' s memorialists will , as in duty bound , sxerpm . ' ¦ ' ¦

      General Amnesty For All Political Prison...

      Mr . Ri *™ , ™ said , there could [ not boa better time to appeal for . a general amnesty-1 to now , when we were m a state of profound peace and quiet . Lord John . Russell had acknowledged that 'the country was in a state of profound quiet and peace ; " thcn . coutd the government , with any snow of reason , refuse to restore the erring patriots to their homes , their wives , and families , aim thus cause a radiant beam of joy to sparkle in many an eve and happiness to resume her place in many a cott-vee' ( Loud cheers . ) He did not anticipate success at this first appeal , but this must not be the last meeting for this purpose . The firsjb vic tims of whom he bad to speak were Frost , Williams , andJones ; those men who bad so nobly and deep y taK

      suffered had been . cn wm . « < m »»« «« .. «» . »« . » , ^ * . fhoiv arrest , during a time of great excitem „ t and he could not £ dp thinking that govern-Z ' hvtheir aeents . kept up the agitation , in m Sp minis of urymen might be alarmed , 01 l'A + Sv Sit obtain lust such verdicts as BSS ^^ . a-k-SSS ^ B 3 ififf «? PeS * jft men from death to transportaton ^ for life , and he called on that meeting to express by . their votes when that memorial was put , their W ° » " J it was » ofhig h time these men should be recailed . ( Loud cheers ?) Now he must remind them of those victimsnfast 11 lateroeriod-Ernest Jones , William i

      Cuffey , Mullins , and numerous ^ others «»« cheers ) Those men had stood forward to defend rights Ion , Shheld , and to complain ofgrievous wrongs unredressed ; and was , t not enoug ^ h to make the flesh crawl on one ' s bones ^ £ 2 fleeted thatthe convictions were ob tomed thro ugh the instrumentality of rascally mformers ? ( Loud cheers . ) For what were punishment ^ ord ™ - ^ what were governments instituted for ? Simply to punish criminals and maintain virtue ; but not for vengeance . Justice , as at present understood , has taken its course ; the law has been vindicated , and to keep the men longer incarcerated is a paltry act of vengeance . Mr . Reynolds having complimented tbe nromoters ofthe meeting , said , let us not forget

      our Irish patriots , whose case would that night be debated in parliament . The wretched condition of Ireland was an ample apology for any agitation that had or might take p lace in that distracted , suffering , and oppressed country . ( Loud cheers . ) We are told the Queen possesses a kindly heart ; let her acts OH the present occasion proclaim it . ( Great and long continued cheering . ) Mr . G . Jouan Harset seconded the memorial , which was adopted unanimously . Mr . Stallwood moved , and Mr . Thompson seconded , the adoption of the following petition to the House of Commons , which was also carried .

      TO TIIE nONOUEABLE THE COMMONS OF GREAT B 1 UTAB" ASD IBELAND IN PAMIAMENT ASSiaiBtBO . SlIEWETH , ... That notwithstanding the great dearth of employment , political thraldom , and social misery endured by the industrial inhabitants of these realms , the most profound peace and quiet prevails . That at such time and under such circumstances , your petitioners deem it advisable to extend mercy to all trans- ' gressors ofthe law who are now confined in any of the gaols of Great Britain or Ireland , or who may have been expatriated to her Majesty ' s colonial possessions for polltical offences . That your petitioners are of opinion that the terms of imprisonment and expatriation already endured by those offenders is amply sufficient to expiate their oifence .

      That fine , imprisonment , and transportation , is not given so much as a punishment for crimes done as for a terror arid example to others ; pnd your petitioners are thoroughly convinced tbatenough has been already done in furtherance of this view , and that should the political prisoners be longer detained your petitioners are of opinion that they will be regarded as martyrs . Your petitioners therefore entreat your honouratile Hous 3 to present an humble address to her Majesty , praying bar to grant an amnesty to all political prisoners at present confined in her Majesty ' s Gaols e " f Great Britain and Ireland , or who may be undergoing sentence of transportation in any of her Majesty ' s colonial possessions , and your petitioners will ever pray . Mr . T . Brown moved , Thatthe memorial to tho Queen be presented by Sir J . Walmsley , M . P ., and the petition to the House of Commons by Lord John Itussell , one of the members for the City of London . "

      Mr . Mullins , father of the youth Mullins , rose to second the motion , and was greeted with the most rapturous applause which so greatly affected him , that he merely breathed the words " 1 second it , " and resumed his seat . The motion was carried unanimously . Thanks having been voted to the Chairman the meeting separated .

      Hours Of Labour- In Factories. — Deputat...

      HOURS OF LABOUR- IN FACTORIES . — DEPUTATION . On Thursday , the 17 th inst ., a deputation of millowners from Manchester , Carlisle , and Glasgow , waited upon Sir G . Grey , Lord J . Russell , and Lord Ashley , with a view of recommending the introduction of an Eleven Hours Bill . A report of the proceedings of this deputation appeared in the Daily News , and the consequence was a general excitement amongst the workmen and their friends who had supported the bill . They immediately met and . appointed a mixed deputation of masters and men to wait upon the Homo Secretary and Lord Ashley upon the subject . Subjoined is a brief report of tne interview with Sir C . Grey on Saturday last .

      Mr . W . Walker , of Bradford , introduced the subject to Sir George Grey by remarking that since he , with other factory masters , had had the honour of an interview ,, accompanied by their late lamented friend , Mr . Fielden , about five weeks ago , great anxiety had existed in the factory districts to learn tho decision of a superior court in reference to the legality of the relay or shift system , which had for some time been practised by a few millowners . lie felt that a great responsibility rested with tho government for having neglected to remove the doubt which had been permitted to arise , as neither himself nor any of his friends could advise the operatives to consent to any extension of the ten hours

      clause , as had been proposed by some masters from the cotton districts of Lancashire , and that he felt confident that the amount of good derived from this valuable measure by all who worked in factories was so great that they could not be induced to consent to any extension of the period of ten hours a day for five days in the week , and eight on the Saturday . He also stated that he thought it very unfair to ask the operatives to assent to any extension of the time merely because certain Lancashire magistrates refused to enforce the uniform time of working which the law provided . Mr . J . Wood , of Bradford , stated hi s conviction that the Ten Hours Act had worked well wherever

      it had been fairly tried since it came into operation . Mr . S . Fieidew , eldest son of the late Mr . John Fielden , stated that on the 10 th of May last the deputation of masters who presented a memorial to Sir G . Grey against the relay system , understood distinctly that he ( Sir G . Grey ) would endeavour to get the legality of the system tried before a superior court . This was stated to the operatives in the manufacturing districts , and they were , in consequence , induced to abstain from any agitation to do away with tho system of shifts or relays until this decision was obtained . Term was now over , and no motion had been made before the judges , although a case was prepared by Mr . Cobbett , of

      Manchestes , under Mr . Horner ' s instructions , expressly for that purpose . In reply to Sir G . Grey ' s-regrot that there should not be a compromise , Mr . Fielden stated that ho thought a great responsibility rested on the government if they did not get this question settled . As long as trade was in a depressed state and the operatives were afraid of losing their employment , they were unablo to assert their opinion against tho shift system , but should trade revive , and there be a demand for their labour , there would be turn-outs against this objectionable system , and a great deal or dissatisfaction amongst them . It behoved Sir G Grev to consider well wliether he ought to leave the question in the unsettled state in which it now was , and he might rest assured that the operatives would never consent to abandon one particle ofthe

      principle of their Ten Hours Act . f Sir G . Grey observed that if the parties interested could not agree upon the terms of an arrangement it was not his businessto dictate to them what course they wight to pursue , and he gave it as his opinion that the only way now left open by which the questurn could be settled was by further- legislation on the subject . The mere fact , however , of bringing the disputed points before a higher tribunal than the magistrates might not settle the question , inasmuch as it was impossible to foresee what would be the decision of the judges . They mi ght simpl y ' grant a mandamus compelling the court below to hear the case , without giving an opinion upon the law of the case . He argued that , : as the act did not give the power of appeal to a higher court , it was to he taken that the legislature intended that the decision of the should

      magistrates be binding , however inconvenient it might be , for the millowners of Yorkshire to be restricted from the use of relays or » shifts " whilst the millowners of Lancashire , by the decision f their magistrates , were allowed that miS ^ he said he had himself a strong objection to tSsl tem of •« shifts , " and believed that KterSuv 5 ^ tended to be conferred by the act ; The Soootal made b y theopponents of the measure , to a ? 3 t an ekven nours bil , and in return uSS rf ttie time of working from fifteen to twelve"S d a half iours per day . was he thought , a fairnnP lmt * smakers now stbbd , and seeC * Jo ' h 0 S 0 f an on both ades , he would not pledge himself to an ? Sf ' fhf W 0 UW he fy ^ tter it was the inten- tion qf the government at present to proceed with he mode sugwsteiUy Mr . Cobbett , of Manchester to bring the matter More a superior court . Under any circumstances th ^ t could not be done until
