      SCURVY ASD IMPURE BLOOD . ANOTHER MO .-T _IXTtAOBDlNABT COBE BT KEAN 8 02 HALSE'S SCORBUTIC DROPS . —The < _ollowin _£ case has excited so much _interest , that the Guardians of the parish of Br- nt , Devon , have considered it their duty to sign their names tothe accompanying important declaration . It is well worthy the notice of the public : — ' We the undersigned , solemnly declare , that , before Thomas Robins ( one of our parishioners ) , commenced taking Halse's Scorbutic Drops , he was literally covered with large _running wounds ( some of them so lanre that a person might have laid his fist in them ) , that before hu had finished thc first bottle he uoticed sn improvement , and that by _continuing _tluin for some time he got completely restored to health after everything else bad failed . He had tried various sorts of medicines before taking _^ Halse ' s Scorbutic Drops , ' and b ; _id prescriptions from the most celebrated physicians in this country , without deriving the least benefit . ' Halse ' s Scorbutic Drops ' have completely cured him , and he is now enabled to attend to his labour as well as any man in our parish . Prom other cures also made in this part , we strongly recommend' Halse ' s Scorbutic Drops' to the notice of tho public . 'Signed hy Jons * Elliott , sen ., Lord ofthe Manor . 'John _Manwikg . Williah Pearce . * Henry _Goodiiav . _'Arthde _Langwohtht . ' _JuneSlst , 184 _'i . ' The above-mentioned Thomas _R' _- _' _iins was quita incapable of doing any kind of work _^ aatever . Before he commenced taking tbese drops son--, of his wounds were so large that it was most awful _tolc- » k at them ,. ani the itching and pain of tke wounds generally were most dreadful ; indeed , the poor fellow _couldbe heard screeching by passers by , both day and night , for sleep was en . _tirely out of the question . He was reduced to mere skin and bone , and daily continued to _$ et weaker , so that there wai every probability of hit speedy death . The effect whicii 'Halse ' s Scorbutic Drops' had on him was , as it were , magieal ; for before he had taken the rim bottle , his sleep was sound and refreshing , the itching ceased * and the pain was very much _lessened . Persons whe see him now can scarcely believe it is the same man —the pale , sallaw , sickly complexion having given way to that ofthe roseate hue of health , and his veins filled with fclood ai pure as purity itself . For all scorbutic eruptions , leproiy , diseafed legs , wounds in any part of the £ ody , scurvy ia the gums , pimples and _bloiches on the neck , arms , or face , these drops are a sure cure . They make tho disease vanish like snow before the sun . Their action is to purify the blood ; they are composed of the Juices of Tarious ' _hcrus , and arc so harmless t _'< at tfiey may he safelv administsred even to infants . The enormous sale which this medicine has now obtained is an ¦ nndoBited proof-of its _invaluab _* _^ properties , the great Sale of it feeing principally thro _^ E ; h recommendation , -Any medicine vender will procure it _t application .

Although tha men had not been apprised that any Bucb steps wero in _contemplation , they , without any previous concert or arrangement , in dlvidually refoaed—each asserting that he was rendy to do all in bis power for the _prottctlon of the company ' s property , in the event of its bain ? _attt-. Qkcd , but would never consent to _upheld tho existing order of thing * , or to resist tho people in their efforts to obtain politic- ! enfranchisement , which , if sworn ns a _special _constable , be would be requited to do . They sympathised too much with tho movement going forward—with Europe at large—to do that . About twelve . Mr Rov . ey , tho

      secretary , called fivo or six into tbe office , and _endvavouri-i _* , to _porsuade them to comply , but It was unavailing—snd a _meeting of the shops being called in the dinner heir , it was unanimously resolved : — ' That we wi' _) ot the ri « k of oar _porson _* , do all in our power f _.-. r the . _protection i . f tho company's property , which wo can do quite as _i ffieiently without an oath as with one—hut wo wil ! not consent to be sworn in as special constables .

The meeting wus addressed by Mr Donovan , Mr Leach , Mr West , nnd others , who delivered eloquent _speeches , which found their way to tho hearts of the assemblage —on the _ir-just'eo of our rulers , tho necessity of the Charter , and tho duty ol attending tho Demonstration on Monday . The _greatest order and decorum prevailed

      and this _meeting , evidently much gratified , quietly _dispsrsed , and returned to their respective homes . _Ludicrously enough , a magistrate seated oa an omnibus drawn by four horses , paraded up and down the road , hannc the Riot Act read y to read at a moment's notice , but tho worthy gentleman might just as well have remained at bom'e with hia ' scroll of parchment , ' sensible peopio only Hpghing at him for going to bo much needloss troub le , 1 am , sir , Tour obedient servant , _Slratiord .

      Great Chartist Meeting At Tue Literaiiy ...

      GREAT CHARTIST MEETING AT TUE _LITERAIIY AND SCIENTIFIC INSTITUTE , JOHN-STREET , FITZROY SQUARE On Tuesday , April llth , this Institute was again densely thronged , Mr Lr / CAi was unanimously called to tbe chair . Mr _Aoajh , _delegato for Glasgow , camo forward _, loudly applauded , aad said : Perhaps the best _thinu they could do was to review the proceedings and _palioy of tbe Convention . Tbo delegates had been charged with acting a cowardly part yesterday , ( ' No . nn . ' ) They had tho character of consistency to _preserve as well as that of courage . ( Hear , _hi-ar . J They had professedly said that the _ngit-ition was peaceful and moral , and yesterday they had turned nut to _fiivo a d _-monstration of * thoir peaceful moral _, fore " , not to give battle . ( Loud cheers . ) Although he was one of thoso who held tho doctrine ' morally it we may , forcibly if we must . ' ( Loud cheers . ) _^ E _AJ ¦ q ilARTIST MEETING _A-r THE

      But , he said , let us exhaust every moral meana first . ( Hear , hear . ) True , hecame to the _Convention with bis life in his hand , b it _Rtili that was no reason he should commit suicide —( hear , hear)—and be did not think they had showed any want of courage . Ha h id a letter in hie pocket wliich contained this : — ' I should sooner hear of your death than your cowardice . ' Ilia eister , also , wrote as follows : — 'I would rather lay your lifeless body in the grave than hear that ynu were either guilty of bain ;; a spy or a coward . ' Now , this showed that his family were ' up tothe mark . ' ( Tremendous cheerinc . ) . Ilis constituency , aW , left it wittt him whether he should remain in town or not . He had never heard anything less from any delegate , but that he was prepared to sacrifice all in tlieir Pause , and when the real day of trial arrived , they would all be found to act worthy of Englishmen , Irishmen , and Scotchmen . ( Great _c' _. _ieerin-r . )

      Mr John _Skemon proposed the following resolution : — ' That this meeting highly approve of the policy of the Convention in preserving tho peace _. and preventing a collision with the constituted authorities , and thereby _preventing an _cnarrnous expenditure of human blood , the shedding of whieh would hive answered no good end , but would have made widows sigh and _orphans mourn the loss of husband and father . ' Moral force was more powerful than physical force It was 6 ruo _f-overnment and all our institutions were based on physical force , and why ? because , the _minority msde laws for the mnjority . Mr Ropinson seconded the resolution .

      Mr GnuHCfiiLL came forward to move the o lowing amendment -. —* That this _meeting , considering themselves hound to obey the orders of . the delegates whom they have elected to represent them in the National Convention , submit to the decision adopted on Monday by their representatives , aud have no doubt it was dictated polely by the _bea _* _intentions , and by An _e-u-nPiit _eace fop the people ' s good . ' Mr rhxos raid it was no amendment . Mr Churchill said he would speak to the amendment , and then they coull jud ; e whether it w ; _is an amendment or not . All governments ! except that under the Autocrat of Russia were caking

      concessions to the people , whilst England was adding another chain , and that , too , _und-jr those Whi _^ s who brought about the so-called glorious revolution of 1683 . Their liberty was not to be got in a day ; a das- * of masters was not te be converted in a day , — it would take time . He could _nor . shut his eyes to the fart that almost all great _changes had been _bought with blood . But he was willing to make the attempt to create the event * that would make England what > he ought to be . lie th mght they went to Kennington Common with one idea in their , heads , and camo hack with another , hence he moved his amendment . ( _Apola-i < " _? . )

      Mr Vernon rose to second the amendment , and said , he should be unworthy of their attention should he , in these times of danger , create _disunion . ( Cheers ) Mr Ve-non added some c _* _mmerts on tlio _p-oceedings at Keniiirg ' on _Common , and defended hi * own character frora certain aspersions _caafc thereon . Mr W . Dix in thought too much had been said of _physical force . _Ilecimplained of Mr Vernon . He _ean-. e to the van , and fcaid to Mr _Cuffay , ' C _^ nle—W _* will lead if yon will follow , come weal , como woo . ' Now , he ( Mr Dixon ) trusted that in their _pla't ' _irm , henccfoith , tftey would not h » ve one man _preaching moral , and . another _phyeieal f iree , let tis have an evenness of action . ( Cheers ) Mr _Vernov , with permission , withdrew his amendment _amid- _'t loud eheers . The re ilntion was carried unanimously , amidst great n . - 'plau « e .

      Mr _Dixo-- said , tbat in the National _Asss'mbly , London _wi-uld _have eight representatives . ( _Cherre . ) Mr John _Fimsell came forward , and _proposed ! be following resolution : — ' Tbat thia meeting , baring been _apprised •'¦ > '" tbe intention of tiie base Whig government of England to c : _u-ry _ameisure through _parliament , _having-for its object tiie _subvei-jion ef the last remn _.-int of British liberty—the _right of freely _exposing cur opinions , both by speaking and writing—we feel ourselves called upan thus to declare our utter detestation and abhorrence of both the measure and the contemptible and brutil ministry from whom it has emanated , and hereby _rtso've lo go on , eX ' _-icifling our just constitutional privilege . * , independent of the tyrannical and despotic enactments of the same treacherous , bloodthirsty , and despo ' . io party . ' Mr FusseU , in a very able speech , supported the motion .

      Mr Walter , in a most forcible speech , seconded it amidst loud _choirs . Mr Ernkst Jones , amidst rapturous cheering _, came forward to support the motion- This was the third meeting ho had attended to-night—ore an open-air meeting on Stepney green . It was a glorious meeting . The second one , held at Fatringdor .-hali . wa _^ equally glorious . lie had heard that thsy had been unanimous and determined . . A _piuging hill was about to _bs passed , at the instigation of Sir George firey ; but that was a reason why he should speak _stronger and louder . ( Immense _apidause . ) Thc motion was then put , and carried unanimously .

      A vote of thanks was given to the chairman ; three cheers for tho Convention ; three for the Charter ; three for Fearaus O'Connor , M . P . ; three for _Ernest Jones , and three groans for tho Whigs . — This splendid meeting then separated quietly .

      Fellow Countrrmen -. We Address You At T...

      Fellow Countrrmen -. We address you at this great and _important crisis in the eountry , for the purrose of n questing your co-fpjration . snd thereby _effecting a union _belwam the middle & nd _wooing classes , which must regenerate this country , aud redress our _common grievances in a peaceful , legal , and constitirional manner . We have boen too lon _^ t disunited . Wo have , although single ia interest , been made ( _p . _-ublo in action . An aristocratic government , that neither knows norcirrs for our losses and sufferings , _havisraadeit their _priricifl _; to _so-v _jealeusy and hatred between us so that ther may th'' more safely rule us for their own advantage . This state uf things wo think it wise to have araenUd— not tbat we ave without strength , courage , union , and re

      sources , but to prevent turmoil and revolution . We understand tho necessity of a moral remedy for our social , political , and ommereial evils . We know full well that a peaceful change will best suit the interests , the character , and the commerce ef our country ; but that cannot be effected unless the combined middle and working _chsses demand it . Our _Di-ayei-s . our petitions , our _gt-oans , and our agony , have been met witb loud laughter and derision by the aristocrats . We appeal to you to prove yourselves anti-revolutionists hy joining us ia our jnst demand for an immediate concession to the people of the principles ofthe Charter . Dad tho whole people been _inposseasioa of the suffrage , and exercised it , only two years ago , the calamities which have be fallen us would not have occurred , h-causo , where the interests of all wore represented , tho interests of all would have been protected . Instead of that , we find that the interests of the middle and working

      _clause ? , both at home and abroad , have been wo « tullv s-iorifieed , as the following returns of the Board of Trade prove : — Th « declared value of our exported yarns and threada , in which we tike the lead , because our capital enables as to _purchase the _lona staple wool and cotton , amounted , in 1 S 4 G . to £ 7 . 873 , 727 , but in 1817 . it declined to _£ 5 , 807-000 . The home o _. 'nsump . _tfon of manufactured goods , chiefly caused bythe expenditure of wages , amounted , in 18 i 5 _, to £ 19 , 610 657 * in 1816 it declined , as wa < -e 3 fell to £ 10 , 881665 ; and in 1817 , when there has been " as it were , half work half wag * ,, ., „ d in 8 ome _» stances , neither work nor wages , the home demand upon our manufactured goods has fallen to £ 9 500 000 This proves that we are on the sliding scale of ruin ' and no wonder that you middle classes complain of omnty tnls diminished profits , and increased taxes Igu are bound inseparably with _«? . If wa « es de c me , so must profits fall and if profits fail aim ™ . _4 _[ jV

      . . ... « .. » ther , capital must disappear , and tie means of employing 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 bsiiefits . rendered null and void . _^' 33 , 000 . 000 of our sold bavo been exported , and' our commercial firms have failed to the exact amount of £ 30 , 000 , 000 , simply because there was no _GovGiuimont ov National Bmk fcoaccommodate our manufacturers . They , although possessing _sufficient real property , oould procure no credit . The workshops and factories were closed , wages _ceated , and home Consumption dwindled , to the ruin and _embarrassrsent of youthe middie ' _elasses

      , . Tbo Charter would have prevented _thofe deplorable ro _^ iH ; _, _hecauae tlio interests oftho _ro ; -plo would have _diel . _'uci ! to them the absolute necfs _^ ily of _krepin _? _faeinrk-f and workshops in full work , by granting immediate accommodation to you , _IheiMiiUileohiSses .

      Fellow Countrymen , theso area few of the ck mat » d causes of our present deplorable distress i " watchtul srovernment would h * ve averted all ' rw when are the aristocrats watchful except for _thpfc own interest ? We _« ant tbe interest , , ihe proper _^ and the per _.-ons of all above _twenty-one years of aoY to be represented . > _Ve exclude the maniao . beoa _«» it has _pleaded the _Alra . ghty to disfranchise him £ taking away hIS reason . We exclude the felon be . c . use he has injured _sooiety . We include ail _„ W by head or hand do any duty . Every man who 2 * forms a duty we think ought to exercise a ri-bt and especiallthe of

      y right destroy ing a bad law or re . m . ving an _awjtecratie tax . Do job object to that ? If you do , and bare intelligent suns , young men " * great capacity and youthful generosity , yon _disfran cb . se them by refusing the Charter . You cut off _thesprmusot _inte ! _nce- ou sunder the _nouriah . ing roots oi the . _* cml tree . The life and energy of the nation » nofc m the gilded palace of the arista _, _cmt . lc now slumbers unsought , unused , but now demanded , behind the counters and desks of the middle classes , and behind the loom , and at the benches ot the working classes

      . _Ftfllo _* Countrymen . —The limitof ihig paper will noc permit us to enter into all the causes ami effects of class-legislation , misrule , and _opnression . But , we may fay _th-it we are opposed to all taxes upon _industry and perseverance , whether _expressed by an income-tax , or taxes on the necessaries of life . We d _^ ire to limit the expenditure of government , and thereby diminish even necessary taxes , and whatever may be necessary , we think , _ousht t' ) be levied , not C . 1 - from the who

      ' mau is _struggling to acquire propert y , but from the man who has it , and evm upon him it should fall lightly . We likewise think that all taxes collected frem the people should be expended for the benefit of tbepeop ' ein _tbeimpriverceot of our towns , harbour ? , streams , and commerce , and not in supporting an id e _and'dis-olute aristocracy , nor for war purposes , " rfe seek an equitable adjuwnent of the national debt , tbat shall neither be _ir'jurious to the national credit nor national creditor , but beneficial to thc whole people .

      We desire the utmost _seope to be given to commerce , as wo i « re aa deeply interested through our wages in steady demand , as you are in supply through your profit . In short , fellow countrymen , we want to throw aside the dead weight that _h- > s pressed so heavily upon our energies . Capital , commerce , and libour , must be free ! shall bo free of all burdens , if you , fellow countrymen , will j un us . The House of Commons will _receive our petition with loud and . derisive _laughter . The _eoverpmenfc , sensibly weak , will not _expire it by granting us concessions . We appeal to vou to prevent _blooiU shed .

      If that and other peaceful , moral , and , as our procession yesterday proved , _mnjestic appeals , fail , then we have but one alternative lot t us—an alternative we wish to avoid , but whieh we fear is inevitable . We rou _* t , as a last alternative , appeal to the people , and , _through their ardent and patriotic prayers ta tho A ' mighty _, mho has claimed the poor and op = pressed as his children . Your property , your persons , and your houses , shall be religiously respected and protected , when the last exttemity is forced upon us by an aristocratic government . . May God defend the right ! is the sincere and heartfelt prajer of your friends , the members ofthe Couneh of the National Charter Association of Nottingham .

      Mr T . Jones moved the first resolution . He addressed the audience as ' brother _slav- _» . ' He eaid , os slaves _ihimi g ht they bod come to ask tbeir tyrants to do nn act of justice . As slaves they had come Mask lhe r oppressors to _strik-j the manacles off their limbs and set the captivo free . ( Loud cheers . ) They had petitioned— - petitioned , perhaps , too long . ( Ileur , hear . ) For hia pirt he was Bieb of petitionin g ; he would petition no more . The last petition to which he would ever append his nam « would be rolled into the House of Commons oil _Ivfoaday next , to be treated , as all previous petitions had bsen , with seorn and concsmpt . The Times hud called upon tho governmen ; to _ouppress tha _Cuattist Gonven . tion no * eitting in Londoa . Ho aBkod , would the _peopl-j stand quietly \< y and seo the last remnant of their _rijrhts wrested from their hands ? ( Loud crieB ef

If every man ft It th . it his 1-bevty rested in his own hands , twenty-four hours would _nol p _389 till the Star Of _freetfoin shone over the land .

      ilr W , _M'Lxan _, an oyer _. itiva _cub' . net . _maker , seeauded ihe resolutiou . Dr _RivnoIiDs supported ths resolution .
