      " JLDDEESS 10 E . C . J 0 XE 3 , ESQ . " Eespected asd Honoured Sir , —It is -with _fedino-s of unbounded p l ea sure th a t we welcome you to this town , alter the long imprisonment you have suffered , for no other crime than that of having advocated the rig hts and interests of the suffering and toiling millions ofthis unhappy land . You , honoured sir , having seen the serf-like condition of the wealth producers , had the manliness and _courage to declare their wrongs , and for this , the ty rants cast yon into the felon ' s dungeon but even then they could not chain your thoug ht , n o r stay the mi g hty torrent of democracy . Sir , we " rejoice to think that even then you

      could hold communion with the spirits of the mig hty dead—suchas a Hetherington , a Hunt , a Marvel , and all who ha v e suffered and d ied , struggl i ng for the liberties of their fellow countrymen . Sir , we sympathise with you in all y our trials . Go on , noble sir , in the cause in which you have embarked , and may the dav speedil y arrive when your labours shall be consumated by the enactment of that document called the Peop le 's Charter ; for which you have so nobly laboured and suffered . Long may you live to enjoy the smiles of an affectionate wife and loving children ; and that your name may live in the hearts and affections of a grateful people , while those of your and our enemies will sink into ever lasting infamy ,

      is the earnest prayer of yours , " Signed on behalf of the South Shields _National Charter Association , " Wiixiam Robinson . " Mr . Jones briefly returned thanks for the kindness shown towards Wm ; a vote of thanks was then moved by Mr . Robinson , seconded by Mr A . Morton , to the brave men of Messrs . Barclay and Perkins , for the punishment inflicted on the butcher Haynau . After a vote of thanks to the chairman , the meeting broke up .

      Birstai . —On Wednesday , the 18 th inst ., Ernest Jones , Esq ., delivered an interesting lecture to a numerous meeting , held in the Hall of Freedom , which was well filled on the occasion . The lecturer , dwelt at considerable _length on the decline of the working class in the s cale o f comfort , and showed clearly to every thinking mind that they were fast sinkin _g and becoming more and more , mere tools forthe use ofthe other classes of society , who were living on their toil ; and that the only remedy for this state of things was the obtainment of political power . At the close of the lecture the following resolution was passed , amid the cheers ofthe meeting : — " That this meeting , viewing with abhorrence the efforts

      of despotism to repress the rising democracy of Europe , and believing that all men are brethren , and that the cause of liberty is the same all over the world , hail with deli g ht the conduct of the men in the employ of Messrs . Barclay and Perkins , in lashing Marshal Haynau—the dastardly woman flogger of Austria—through the streets of London , and thus reading a lesson to tyrants at home , and their kindred abroad . " _^ After the meeting , between forty and fifty friends sat down to a good substantial supper , and when amp le justice had heen done tothe good things , several Re fo rmers ' songs were sung . G . Ramsay presided during the evening ; and the whole passed off to the entire satisfaction of the friends assembled .

      Somees Town . — A discussion was hem at the Bricklayers ' Arms , _Tonbridge-street , on Sunday evening , on the respective lines of policy laid down hy the National Charter Association , and the Charter League .

Allnnt , _JTobbs , and Weeks ; on the side of the _National Charter Association , Messrs . Lowry , Hornby , Brisck , Humphries , Thurston , Slowcombe , and Wheeler . The discussion was prolonged until

      a late hour , and th o ug h _no-Tote was taken upon the subject , yet it is but just to say that the whole of the audience , with the exception of the speakers upon the side of the League , agreed with the general policy of the Old Association , and were of opini o n that the concoctors ofthe Charter League had not shown sufficient grounds of complaint , to warrant them in attempting to start a new , and consequently , in many respects a hostile b od y ! The speakers on the side of the League were heard in reply to each consecutive speaker on the opposite side _^ and mast have felt gratified at the attention and forbearance displayed by their opponents .

      beheve ) , that government intends to prosecute the noble-minded men of London , who evinced their abhorrence of brutality by the . evidence they gave Haynau , ofthe general feeling of the Eng lish people , whose sympathy for the oppressed is only equalled by their detestation of the oppressor . " _Htjil . —On Friday evening , the 20 of September , an interesting and eloquent lecture

      was delivered by Mr . Chadwick , ( late state prisoner ) , on tiie present condition of the masses , and the means for their improvement , in which he produced a number of facts .

Williams : — " That the thanks of this meeting are due to the men of Barclay and Perkins ' s brewery , for g iving to that inhuman butcher Haynau , a specimen ofthe feeling which the democrats of Great Britain entertain towards all tyrants , and notwithstanding the abuse of the Times and other advocates of the continental despots , the Bankside brewers and draymen will be ever remembered by the Chartists of Brighton with feelings of admiration and esteem . "

      _"Xewcastle-ox-Ttne . —The Chartists ot this town enjoyed a rare treat iu hearing , ou Sunday night , a most excellent address from Mr . E . Jones , who had been invited to visit these northern towns . The meeting was called for six o'clock , but several friends met at four o ' clock at Mr . Johnson ' s , Temperance-hotel , and took tea with the talented lecturer . On the removal of the cloth Mi * . J . Watson was called to the chair , when several short addresses were given , illustrative of the position of the Chartist cause in Newcastle , South Shields , and Sunderland , by friends present from those pl aces , and an understanding arrived at of the utility of again attempting the organisation of the district as

      soon as possible . At the public meeting , which was held in the Lecture-room , Nelson-street , Mr . Jones had the pleasure to witness a full house , and a spirited reception , the cheering continuing for some time after his arrival on the platform . M . Jude was called upon to preside , who , hav i ng rea d the bill convening the meeting , introduced Mr . Jones amid the repeated cheers and plaudits of those assembled . Mr . Jones entered on the business of . the evening by a close and well-digested view of the relative well-being of the -working classes at the present time with times gone by , argumentatively and statistically ; proving that there was no evidence of progress or improvement in the condition ofthe

      working classes . He then passed in review the different schemes propounded by the people ' s rulers , to better their condition ; showing that neither Free Trade , Prot e ct i on , nor Emigration were calculated to achieve any real and lasting advantage for the people of this country , ridiculing the idea of improving our condition by sending the industrious bees away , an d keep ing the idle drones at home . Mr . Jones next dwelt upon the necessity of cultivating the waste land of the country , as being preferable to depending for support either on our colonies or elsewhere ; demonstrating , by reference to history , and various other sources , that two acres of land would keep a family , whilst the number of acres available in this country was eleven

      acres per family . The gentleman tben reverted to the means necessary to bring about so desirable a change , and ably showed that nothing short of political power could achieve such results . The People ' s Charter was the remedy—the means to an end , and all our efforts ought to be concentrated , in order to make that Charter the law of the land . The thing was practicable ; they had but to unite in one general association , and keep before the eountry their collective power . Their great influence , generally and universally expressed , would have its due wei ght i n b r i ng i ng about t h at c h an g e in public op inion , w h ic h necessarily ensures the desired results . The address , wliich was one continued chain of reason rivetted the attention of the

      audience ( interrupted only at intervals by outbursts of approbation , ) and seemed to make more than common impression upon them , wa s at its clo s e cheered to the echo , amid which Mr . Jones resumed his seat . Mr . Jones having alluded to the brave fellows who " scotched , but not killed" Ilaynau , a re s olution wa s move d b y Mr . Rutherford , and seconded by Mr . Watson , approving of such treatment , and adopted with the most hearty _^ ood will .

      Three cheers were then given for the Chatter , when the vast assembly broke up , many having come from a great distance , especially some miners f rom "West Crambington and Deleral , highly delighted with the excellent and talented address they had heard . A great many Chartists accompanied Mr . Jones to his hotel , and again took tea with him , his arrangements obliging him to depart for South Shields next day . The evening was spent m recitations and in addresses relative to the federal

      association now forming in London , and expressive of the utility of snch formation . _METRoroiiLAN Delkoate Council , 26 , Goldentone , Barbican , Sunday , September 22 nd—Mr .

      —^^ Revival Of Cuaittism.-Mr. Ernest Jon...

      _—^^ REVIVAL OF CUAItTISM .-MR . ERNEST JONES IN LEEDS . ( From the Leeds Times of September 21 st . ) On Thursday evening , Mr . Ernest Jones , who has come on a tour into the West Riding after his release from prison , attended a meeting in the front room of the Bazaar , Bri ggat e , ahd was met by a large bod y o f wor ki ng men , holding the opinions enunciated in the People ' s Charter . Mr . Wm . Brook was called to the chair , and opened the proceedings by giving out a Chartist hymn , commencing thus : — " Great God , is this the patriot ' s doom , Shall they who dare defend the slave Be hurled within the prison ' s gloom , To fit t h em for an e arl y grave ?"

      The Chairman then addressed the meeting , calling upon the working men of Lee d s to d o their duty in supporting a man who had suffered incarceration for the cause they all had at heart . ( Three cheers of welcome were given for Ernest Jones . ) Mr . Ernest Jones then came forward amidst a storm of applause , and addressed the meeting at considerable length . He said that he proposed to dilate upon the political and social causes of the misery , disease , and crime in this country , and what he conceived to be the means of their removal . He contended that for the past fifty years the condition of this country had been a lamentable declension , a n d though t here h ad been occasional ly . small gleams of prosperity , yet the people had invariably

      fallen down two steps of the ladder for every step they -were enabled to make upwards . The working men of England were implored _^ hy their rulers not to organise or agitate , as freeirade would ensure them continuous . prosperity , _^ "But . free trade was only a negative good : it only opened the gate for things to enter—a very different matter to bringing things across the gates when they were opened . The present prosperity of English manufacturers arose from the stoppage of continental production ; but as soon as the despots had gained the upper hand or liberty triumphed , foreign competition would again press wages down and down to starvation point . ( Applause . ) Now , then , when they were in a state of comparative prosperity , was the

      time for them to organise , and make preparations to avert , or at least meet , the coming " rainy day . " Competition and cheapness were the great causes of the destitution and misery to the working classes . Shopkeepers , by the operation of competition , wero in a continual race as to who should sell the cheapest ; and how was this to be done ? Neither of these shopkeepers would consent to less profit ; but they cut down the wages of the working men ; and the working classes , by this same principle of competition were daily exerting themselves to produce more for less wages ; and , by these means , competition acted and re-acted against the operative , who had gone lower and lower until he had arrived at an inconceivably miserable state . But this competition

      did not act upon the upper classes ; the lawyers had not reduced their fees ; the parsons would not cure their souls for less ; the king would not govern them for less than he would fifty years ago . ( Applause . ) Mr . Jones then adduced a number of statistics to prove the alleged declension of England , and the deteriorated condition of the working classes . He next turned to the decreasing duration of human life among the working and trading classes in England , and the increase of crime and pauperism ; and contrasted the miseries of the working classes with the reckless expenditure upon royalty and the scions of aristocracy . The remedies for all the people ' s miseries , as propounded by the statesmen a n d t h e governors ofth e daywere—free trade ,

      , protection , and emigration . Free trade , though true in principle , would not give permanent prosperity , because it was founded upon the assumption , t h at England would manufacture for all the world ; whereas all the civilised nations of the world were now manufacturing for themselves . It was quite out ofthe question to think that new markets could be found to keep England employed . Protection was a good thing—not the protection of landed proprietors and corn monopolists—but that protection which consisted in the working classes protecting themselves . ( Applause . ) Emigration was advocated upon the assumption that fewer mouths would want feeding ; but it was forgotten that the mouths carried with them the hands , aye , and the _strongest

      hands of the country . It they were to have emigration , let them begin at the top , not at the bottom of the scale . Let the parsons and lawyers , and those above them emigrate : but let us keep our men of muscle and sinew . What we wanted to see was emigration from the smoky town to the agricultural district . Land was the shield of nations—corn fields were the fortress of freedom . ( Applause . ) Properly cultivated , the soil of Eng land was capa b le of supporting a much larger population than tbis country now possessed . If the soil of Eng land were equally divided , eleven acres of good land would fall to the lot of every family in this country . So long as that were true—and he defied any ono to gainsay it—tbe people must turn to the land as

      the means of their regeneration . He was prepared to recommend the division of the land into small a llotments amon g the p eople ; a n d attribute d t h e evils at present afflicting the country in no small degree to the large hol d ings of lan d whieh had of late years become so general ; whereby the soil had not been made to yield anything li k e t h e crops which it was capable of producing , and these men of muscle and sinew who should be employed in the healthful occupation of the farm and the homestead were driven to the life-destroying , smoky , filthy towns . Political power must always precede social regeneration . Let them co-operate as soon as they pleased , and as soon as they were beginning to succee d , the monopolists would come down upon them with some law to nullify their best efforts . Virtue would bring them nothing . Be they as good as the angels in heaven , that would never gain political

      power or social regeneration . Large us was tho revenue derived from t h e con s ump t ion of tobacco , an d sp irits , an d malt , and anxious as ho was to seo the people abstain from all these tkings , he denied that by abstinence they could cripple the revenue ; for if the revenue failed from these things , fresh taxes would be levied . ( Applause . ) What was t h e reme dy for their present political and social degr ad ation ? T h e P e o ple ' s Charter . ( Applause . ) That measure was attainable by the people whenever the people "would stand forth in their might , and demand it . ( Applause . ) By manfully declaring their political opinions and uniting in their factories and wor k shops , demanding their , political rig hts , or refusing longer to produce wealth for the idlers , they must succeed . Whatever the people willed , that would they have . The great battle of protection was coming on . Both Free Trader and Protectionist would come before the people and crave

      —^^ Revival Of Cuaittism.-Mr. Ernest Jon...

      their aid ; but the people must spurn them both , and rear up a great Charter party out of the wreck of Whig and Tory spoliators . ( Hear , hear . ) Other events were looming in the distance—reac _* tion in the state of trade—reaction in France , and the downfall there of , pretended Republicanism . The time was coming when a Garibaldi would reappear—when Kossuth would come from , his exile . ( Loud and prolonged cheering . ) When these ttiirigB ' came round , when they were in destitution and prepared to go a-head _, what would thev be able ' to

      answer him when he said to them— " On such' a night , when you were in prosperity , I came to Leeds—I urged you to organise for your regeneration and the attainments of your rights , and did you organise ?'* ' ( Applause . ) Let them forthwith organise _,, and so act as to be able on a future day to look back with pride and p leasure on this ni ght . ( Vehement cheering . ) Mr . John Shaw , proposed a vote of thanks io Mr . Ernest Jones for his excellent address , and of sympathy with him in his recent imprisonment .

      Mir . " Chadwick ( of Manchester ) seconded the motion ; it' was carried by acclamation ; and Mr . Jones replie d , urging the working classes to immediatef action in the cause of the People ' s Charter . . Mr . _f'BiAUMoNr proposed , in a few words , thc following resolution : — " That , . the thanks of this ; m _0 tiri f * are ; due arid are hereby given to the men « 1 nproyed by Barclay and Perkins ' , for their noblo conduct with respect to the tyrant and womanflogger—Haynau , Mr . J . "Harris seconded the motion , and it was carried amidst loud cheering _. It was then announced that Mr . Jones would be in Leeds again shortly , when it was intended to have a public tea party in his honour . ( Applause . ) A vote of thanks to the Chairman terminated the proceedings at a quarter before ten o'clock .

      Democracy In Mabylebone And Paddington. ...

      DEMOCRACY IN MABYLEBONE AND PADDINGTON . A public meeting , convened by the Emmet Brigade , was hel d in t h e Literary Institution , Carlislestreet , Portman-market , on Wednesday evening , September the 25 th . Mr . Hunnibau , who was called to the chair , apo . logised for the absence of Mr . G . W . M . Reynolds , on account of the melancholy death of his eldest son . Mr . Stallwood , amidst the loudest applause , came forward and said , the resolution the committee had drawn up was worthy of the Emmet Brigade . It was as follows : — " That philosophy , the scriptures , and common sense alike , proclaim the Land , and all appertaining thereto , to be the property of the whole people , but of which the conspiracy of kings , lords , priests , and profitmongers , had

      deprived them , and to the benefits of which they could onl y b e restore d t h roug h such a re f orm o f the L e g islature as should be based on the principles of the Peop le ' s Charter . " ( Loud cheers . ) That resolution proclaimed great truths ; there certainly was a time when neither kings , lor d s , priests , or p r o fitmon g ers existed . In that day of man's primeval equality , the Land , and all belonging thereto , must , or neoessity , h a ve b een the property of the whol e people ; the s cri p tures verified thi s conclusion , for in th e fir s t c ha pter of Genesis , verses 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , they would find the earth and its fruits set forth as God ' s gift to man . ( Hear . ) This was further confirmed in the 24 th psalm ; but a race of priests , kings , aristoc rats , and profitmongers had despoiled them of their inheritance . Now the three classes appeared united

      against the wealth producers , the result of which to them was but too well known ; and the last class appeared the worst of all , as witness the Moses , the Hyams , & c , with their eternal cry of cheap , grinding labour tothe very dust . ( Cheers . ) He ( Mr . S ta llwood ) thought the only reme dy was the People ' s Charter . ( Cheers . ) The speaker here entered into an exposition of the princip l e s of tho Peop le ' s Charter , and said , it cou ld not he sup p ose d that lords , priests , or profitmong e rs coul d , or would ever represent the interest of tho wealth producers ; and hence the necessity of having men of their own order in the House of Commons . Thatthey were not represented . in the Legislature was proved by the treatment of the bakers' appeal , by the bringing

      in and passing a bill for the factory workers one Session and repealing it the next ; by the treatment Mr . Slaney received when submitting questions for improving the condition of the labouring classes . It was their duty to rally round the National Charter Association , to discuss social rights ; and having gained the Charter , they might then look forward to Industrial Home Colonies , to an exchange for labour , to a proper paper currency , representing the veal wealth of the natioD , and to a national system of secular education ; these obtained , and not before , would they be in a position to exclaim , " All hail Liberty , Equality , and Fraternity . " Ho had great pleasure in moving the resolution . ( Cheers . ) Mr . D . W . Ruffy , 'in seconding the motion , said , he knew there were those who denied that tbe

      people possessed any rights , especially a right to the fruits of the earth ; but the resolution very properly said , that " philosophy , the Scriptures , and common sense * , " loudly proclaimed those rights . ( Hear , hear . ) For himself , he did not believe the people ever would be free while the land remained private property . ( A Voice : Alter the law , then . ) That was a most sensible observation ; and this meeting had been convened to ask assistance in that respect . ( Cheers . ) He knew how titles to land had been obtained , yet he was not one who would re-seize it by force , hut would take legitimate means to that end , as he knew on the question of the land hung the salvation of the people . It was the source from which all wealth sprung .

      ( Loud cheers ) Mr . Ruffy here stated the number of landholders in 1770 , and the great reduction that had taken place in their ranks since that period , the misery that had overtaken tho people in consequence of their having been drawn from agricultural pursuits , and placing women and children in factories . The Sheffield union had employed some paupers on the land , and thus proved that not only could they support themselves b y spa d e labour , but could leave a surplus to aid others . This fact fully showed that the country might most pleasantly be relieved from the burden of poor rates . The People ' s C h arter _. l by the resolution , was ma d e tho b asis of the proposed reform , and properly so , too ; but it was essentially necessary that the people should

      discuss social rights , in order that Chartism , when obtained , should not be abused and perverte d a s Universal Suffrage had been in France . ( Cheers . ) Let this be done , and the Charter gained , and he had no doubt , in due time , the peoplo would enjoy the fruits of the earth . ( Applause . ) Mr . S . M . Kydd rose , rapturously applauded , and said that the resolution moved and seconded by his friends Stallwood and Ruffy was a philosophical , philanthropic , and all-embracing one , and he knew nothing moro monstrous than the system which kept those unenfranchised who produced all the wealth , aud paid all the taxes . That resolution included alike the peer and the peasant , in its enfranchising clause . It also embraces the labour

      question . During the discussion of the factory question he had to wait on a peer of the realm , wit h a deputation , and a lordship had asked for his ( Mr . Kydd's ) opinion . He replied , " The law did not recognise him , and , consequently he had , in the eye o f t ho law , no opinion . " His lordship said , ' Oh you have . " To which he ( Mr . Kjdd ) responded , * ' Yes , p recisel y the same ri g ht to s p ea k as a l i on has to roar , when he is shut up in the cage , for such did he con s i d er to b e man ' s case without tho suffrage . " ( Loud cheers . ) One of the speakers had o b s e rved , that tho people would again soon be destitute . ( Hear , hear . ) He knew this was too true , and hence it was necessary that their movement should bean abiding one . Let them be tho steady

      advocates of ri ght on a ll occ a s i ons , if th e y di d not they would be the heirlooms of slaves to all posterity . ( Loud cheers . ) The labour question bore naturally and materially on the resolution before them , and it appears that the reversion from agriculture to manufacture had been a change from virtue to crime . They heard talk of prosperity , but it must n t bo l o ok e d for in th e dwell ing of th e artisan , or in the cottage of tho labourer , an d t h at prosperity which gave twice the length of lifo tothe rich as it gave to the poor , he declared to be tho civilisation of hell , not of human society . ( Loud cheers . ) Talk of prosperity indeed , whon ships were increasing to carry people from their shoreswhen tho cost of kcepiug their poor had increased .

      Cobden and Bright ' s prosperity was that of stimulating labour one day , in order that tbey might starve it the next ; thero never would , thero never could he prosperity , until the principle of human brotherhood was admitted . ( Loud cheers . ) He accepted , w i th a l l his h eart , t h e scri p ture m x i m , " He who will not work neither shall he eat ; " but let this become a verity , not a sham . IIo remembered standing on tliat platform two years ago whon the g overnment s e nt the i r sp ies to entrap the people ; but their efforts had been futile . Demo c r a cy still existed , possessed of more vitality . Feudalism was dead — Profitmongering and p ickpooketi s m were fast going—and the reign of democracy must come . ( Immenso cheering . ) Locke , Milton , and others had wrote for it , proclaiming man's equality

      To The Working Classes Of Leicester And ...

      TO THE WORKING CLASSES OF LEICESTER AND LEICESTERSHIRE . Brothers , —From the long silence which has shrouded our movements many of you will hare i magine d t h e C har t is t A ssociation h ad ceased to have an existence , but we assure you such an assumption is contrary to fact ; although our ranks have been weakened and much thinned by desertion , our association has maintained its vitality . Firm in our belief that our principles are based on trut h , and conscious that truth will ultimately prevail over persecution and falsehood , we have stood firm , and we now earnestly appeal to you to aid us in forwarding this cause of Political and Social Democracy . At a time when apparent prosperity seems to

      reign among you we may be blamed for inviting you once more into the field of ag it a tion ; but we w arn you that this prosperity is only apparent and temp orar y , not real and lasting . The time will come , a nd t h at , perhaps , not long first , when the cry of want of work and of the necessaries of existence will be heard on all sides , and the question will be asked , —What is to be done ? We entreat of you not to put off till the evil hour what may be b etter d one now ; now , while you have full time for r e flect i on , together with enlarged means to carry out your projects . Is it possible that the working men of these islands , boasting of their freedom ana intelligence , can consent much longer to remain the " mere hewers of wood and drawers of water ?"

      the producers of wealth for others to enjoy ? Working-men are you not acquainted with tne fact that the real workers have two sets of paupers to maint a in , —thc idle aristocracy , the cormorants of Church and State on the one hand , and a large body of y o ur own or d er o n t h e ot h er , w h o a re comp e lle d unwill i n g l y to be idle throu gh the prevailing false system ? Out of an estimated annual production of C 20 millions , 500 millions , or thereabouts , finds its way into the pockets of the aristocratic idlers and capitalists , leaving the remaining 120 millions for the working bees who have produced the whole , _* and it will become even worse unless you bestir yourselves for your political , and through them , your social rights . What is to be done for the

      people must be done by the people * , and if you desire these rights , it is useless to expect them from the propertied classes ; you must put your shoulders to the wheel , work dili g en t l y an d p erseverin gly , or you will never obtain them . We tell you plainly , that . small . reforms will not be of niuch benefit to you ; that no political measure , short of the " People ' s Charter , " will be effective foi * your purpose , * that is the only measure , in our opinion , that w i ll ensure a f ull , fan * , an d free representation in the House of Commons . This is an appeal from working men to working men , and we trust it will not be made in vain ; bestir y ourselves , —read , reflect , and you will then discover the anomalies of your position . With idle

      land , idle capital , is it not monstrous that there should be so many idle labourers ? Pauperism increases with wealth ; great masses of misery and destitution surround splendid palaces . How is this ? Why should such a state of things exist ? They could not if you were to act unitedly and determinedly : your disunion is the great cause of your wretchedness . •• The fault , dear brothers , lies not in our st a rs , But in ourselves , that we are underlings . " We call upon you to come forth and be workers in t h is great c a use , the cause o f trut h an d justice . W e ask you to aid us in establishing a better social system . We contend earnestly and sincerely for tho natural an d i n a liena bl e r i g h ts o f man , —rights antecedent to all others—the right to the suffrage , direct and universal—the right of man to live , to labour , and to enjoy the fruits of his labour—rights

      which aristocracies , whether of land or capital , have no right to withhold . The evils we contend against are the monopoly of the people ' s soil , a false system of currency , a n d the ru i nous sy s tem o f competition which is crushing us down more and more—the idol before whom nearly all bow and pay homage—the god Cheapness . Our means of oper a tion will b e t h e ho ld ing o f p u b l i c m e etin g s an d lectures when necessary ; the distribution of tracks , the forming a local Election and Registration Commitee , the establishment of adult and childrens * schools , and also mutual instruction and improvement classes , and by endeavouring to promote union , brotherly love , and self-respect among our order . We do not pledge ourselves that all the plans we have enumerated will be carried out immediately , that can only be done so far as we receive support from you .

      We think wo have said sufficient to convince you that our intentions aro honest , and that our views are broad an d compr e hensive , wo ther ef ore invit e you to come and give us that support we think this great cause deserves at the hands of _workinfj men , We know we shall meet with opposition—for that wo are prepared , and that will not affect us so much as your apathy and indifference . Wo have stated our views boldly and broadly , with the knowledge that wo shall be opposed , persecuted , and slandered ; but confident that the stand we have taken has truth and justice for its foundation , we bide the issue with a certainty of success . With truth on

      our side and reason and argument for our weapons , we know we shall prevail , " f or w h oev e r k new truth put to tho worst in a free and open en * counter ? " Rally round this , the t r ue Workin g Man ' s Association . Working men of all grades , Chartists and Social Reformers , men of thou g ht , men of intelligence , take your place in the strugf le ; have faith in the glorious idea of universal appiness , the great redemption of man in bondage ; be content no longer to hug your chains as wages ' slaves ; struggle with us to destroy this horrid system of proletarianism ; and let us-p lace man iu the position designed by his Creator—a happy , intelligent being—a glory to God and an ornament to his

      race . The men who address this to you aro humble men of your own order—men who feel the injuries inflicted upon them b y the f alse s yst e m th ey live under , and men who are sincere in their desire to establish a better state of things . We aro not actuated by ambitious motives , nor through a love of popularity * . we should only be too happy to give place to men of greater judgment and intelligence ; but at the same time , we can only resign our places to men honest and sincere in what they profess ; to all such wo say—Come , be faithful to our great

      principles , and show your devotion by your acts . To all working men wo say—Come , the most humblo among you may be useful if he will only place his shoulder to the wheel . Come then , brothers , one and all , give us your assistance in placing this groat movement of sooial democracy on a firm footing in this county ; do not let it be said by future generations that wo rofused to aid in making the world better than tue found it _.

      • Nottingham. — On Mond A Y Evening Last...

      • Nottingham . — On Mond a y evening last a meeting convened by Bellman , 'was held in the Large Room at t he Sev e n Stars , Owhichv had been called forthe purpose of giving the notorious Messrs . Beattie , Bradshaw , and Co ., of Minster Lovel , an opportunity of making known their * grievances ; these gentlemen" had arrived a day or two previous , and , had been very industrious , in company with their esteemed friend Jackson , late an allottee at Minster , butf now again residing in Nottingham , attending small ' meetings in the public-houses in this town and neighbourhood . At the appointed time , * Mr / John Wall was called , _to- _^ he chair , and stated that he hoped a fair he ' aringfwould _^ be . given to every person _wjio _. might think _^ ppe _^ _spc _^ er _wavBfef _^ radshaw , ' who , said , be came for

      the purpose of demanding that the men of Nottingham should send a deputation to Minster , to _settle the difference between them and Mr . O'Connor , and that that gentlemen should be invited to meet them . —Mr . Sweet , addressing the chairman , said : Sir , I feel very much surprised that Mr . Bradshaw should come here at this time and make such a demand upon this branch of the Land Company ; it would have been far more reasonable for him and . his friends to have met Mr . O'Connor in Nottingham , due notice having been given of the late visit of that gentleman to his constituents . —Mr . Beattie was the next speaker ; be complained that no rent had been demanded of him—that he did not know what he had to pay—that no lease had been given to him—that when the bailiff came all the rent due , viz ., £ 18 , was demanded instead of £ 12—that they had been repeatedly promised such lease on pay . ment of rent , but those who had paid . had not

      received their leases ; and after a long and wearisome statement , which the members evidently were very tired of , he sat down . —Several questions were then put to Mr . Beattie by various members , as to whether the persons whom he had named , had paid the whole of the rent due before asking ior the lease , and wishing to know his reason for refusing to pay the directors the rent ? To the first question he would not give an answer ; to the second , that he would not be tenant-at-will to any mam-Mr . Sweet said , he wished to ascertain , i f po s si b le , through the chairman , what was Mr . Beattie ' s opinion about the capabilities of the soil , and whether it was possible for the allottess to get a living and pay rent therefrom ? Many and various statements had been made , and he had heard Mr . Beattie himself , on a previous occasion , declare that his land had grown him carrots as long and as thick as his leg ; and , further , he had heard him also admit , that he had let three acres of his land for more

      money than his rent came , to for four acres and a good house ; and yet he did not appear to be very desirous of being just to his brother shareholders , by whose means he and others had bee _* a placed upon the land , or , instead of quibbling and fencing about who were the parties to whom the rent should be paid , he would at once have paid the money into the hands of the Directors of the Company , the only proper parties to receive it . Mr . Beattie did no t attempt to unsay what he had formerly spoken . —At this stage of the proceedings , a young man of the name of Place , a resident of New Radford , a joiner by trade , who had worked upon two or three of the estates , got upon his legs , and made the following statement : —That he knew the houses at Minster Lovel only cost £ 70 each in their erection

      and that Mr . O'Connor had stated two or three various sums , until now he declared they had cost him £ 150 eaoh , thus making to himself £ 80 upon each house , and bringing the Company several thousands pounds in his debt , " when he was never worth four thousand pounds in his life . ( Cries of " Shame , shame . ")—Mr . Sweet said , he felt surprised that the chairman had not called Mi * . Place to order ; hi s was an ex parte st a tem e nt , a nd ought not to have been made in the absence of the person accused ; no proof had been produced of the dishonesty of Mr . O'Connor , and he felt determined now to tell Mr . Place , that , i n th e fi r st place , if he knew his statement to be true , he , himself , was a scoundrel in withholding the facts from his fellow shareholders ; and , secondly , that he was like al

      the resit of the assassins , who , when they conld not bleed Mr . O' Connor any longer , turned round upon him , and , coward-like , stabbed his character in his absence . —The whole nieeting here rose up , and w _' ould have forcibly ejected Mr . Place from tlie room , but Mr . Sweet hoped that no violence would be committed , for that was what their enemies aimed at accomplishing . He had no doubt in his own mind but tho friends of Messrs . Beattie and Co . had found the necessary materials for them to scamp about the country . —The chairman hereupon abdicated his seat , but , before doing so , Mr . Mott said , th a t . the question w as , had the rules been abided by , " and had Mr . O' Connor done as he had promised the allottees he would do ?—Mr . Hall answered by saying , that it was not in Mr .

      O'Connor s power to do what he had promised , seeing that the goverment , the press , and a portion of the allotteeB , had used all their energi es to p revent him . —In the midst of the bustle , tho Minster trio made their exit , when Mr . Sweet was called to the chair , and the following motion , moved by Mr . Wardley , and seconded by Mr . Oldknow , was carried unanimously : — " That , in tho opinion of this meeting , the character of Feargus O'Connor , Esq ., M . P ., stands unimpeached , and that we put implicit confidence in his honour and integrity , and e a rnestl y request him to enforce from the allottees on the various estates of the Company the rent now due , and if such allottees neglect , or refuse to pay the same , that they be , as soon as possible , ejected therefrom . "—A vote of thanks to the Chairman closed tho proceedings .

      DlBDEN-HILL HARVEST HOME FESTIVAL . — On Monday , September 16 th , tho residents on the _Dibden-hill estate ( the property of Mr . Baum , ) near Chalfont St . Giles , Bucks , held their annual Harvest Home Festival . Tho bill of fare consisted of a dinner and tea . Having received an invitation to attend the same , we left O'Connorville ( where we reside , ) accompanied by several friends , to partake of the good things provided ior the occasion . "We proceeded through Newland-park , a large track of land , which , we understand , is l ocke d up in Chancery , and which would , if cultivated , be the means of giving a comfortable maintenance to many impoverished families . A short walk from this place brought us within sight of Chalfont St . Giles ,

      celebrated as the place where Milton wrote a portior of his Paradise Lost , where we could comm a nd a view of tho Dibden-hill estate , which presented a lively and animated appearance ; flags , bearing appropriate inscriptions , were to be seen Hying in all directions . Upon arriving at the estate we were met b y the occupants , who gave us a hearty w elcome . After dinner ( which was composed of * good old English fare , and which was served up in a manner that reflected the greatest credit upon the ladies , ) we retired , preceded by the band , to a vacant spot of ground , w h ere m a ny a rust i c ga me , including the dance on the sward , served to amuse and delight the guests . We then retired to a spacious room , where an excellent tea was in

      readiness . Ample justice having been done to the meal , the tables were cleared , when Mr . Whitmore , a veteran democrat , was called to the chair , and , in an excellent speech , ably enforced the necessity of un i o n a n d so b r ie ty a mong the working cl a s s es and peace and good will among nations . Several democratic sentiments were abl y spoken to , which to enumerate , would occupy too much space . The rem ai n d er o f the evening ' s entertainments consisted of democratic songs , recitations , and dancine . A burlesque upon the Queen ' s speech was recited by a friend m a manner which called forth the reneated SSf 51 ' H ° _rtr ?• The _^ _ning WeS ment concluded with three cheers for Mr . O'Cont h d Plan

      nor e Lan , and the Charter ; three groans tor Haynau , the Austrian butcher ; and three cheers for Barclay and Perkins ' s draymen . After a voto of thanks to tho chairman , the meeting separated at an earlv hour , highly gratified with the day ' s _enjojment . " Before we took our leave we did not forget to express a hope that a spirit of fraternal and brotherly feeling would ; tor the future , oxist among the democrats of _Dibden-hiii and their friends at O'C onnorville ; a _*» ° P ° f " _* had their hearty concurrence .
