HtBPS moraLr . One aneedot-j -tronM 3 > e snfficaent to ^ iow that they were ^ tftet great fools or great knaves toput forth the proposition that this act was likelv to "raise the wages of the labouring man . There lived at Bolton a ] dr . Ashwbrti , ^ maniifactnrer , who , before theatt passed .-wrote to Mr . Secretary Chadwkk , calling him " Respected friend" ( he supposed Mr . Ashworfh was a -f oaker . ) telling hjm how extremely iappy hewa 8 "tesee that this jodkaoos act was about to be passed . And what did they sappose was his reason ? That it " would iininediately bring the agricultural labourers down into the north , where la-¦ boui £ rs were wanted , for the purpose of equalizing ¦ wage * . Did they suppose Mr . Ashworth wanted labourers 6 pm the south to raise wagesin the north r and he added
2 ? o ^ a slight commentary on the above , in stating that labourers were much wanted . ; for haniWoom weavers wages had been raised ten per cent lately . ( This was in lSii . ) . This letter was written about the very time- that it ^ ras proved before a committee jpf the Hoase of Commons , that the ^ people of Bolton , a large part of whom it was weMinown . were hand-loom- weavers , had scarcely any ferniture or clothes , and knew Dot how to renew tiiose they had , and that their wages did not average more than 21 d . per day . It was " certainly a ^ ery nice calculation , to ascertain what arise of ten per cent on 21 d . would amount to . - [ Mr . J . Yielding it 13 a farthing and one-tenth of a larthing . } How then could the people of St . Stephen's imagine , that this act would
raise wages ? He hoped they would tryja little more petitioning . If not , what must they do . ? Why , very few men Eked to prononnce the next word . —< A voice— * ' Fight—that ' s it . ' j Then , if they ceased to petition , they either did noihlng or something Tery grave . Let it be recollected , that the commission it * lf , which was the soul of this act , expired next year . ; then the guardians ¦ wonld become responsible to the poor man who asked relief , and to their otto neighbours ; and that responsibility tha guardians wished to avoid . The opponents ^ of the Poor Law had been denounced , particularly since a late occurrence in Kent , as a set of agitators , who drove the people mad against this beneficial law . If the people were < o foolish , , that persons could make them believe they were ill off when they -were well off , the friends 6 { the Poor Law had surely the same means of persuading them tojh ? contrary ; and if they did not make use of thoi « means , tb ? fault was their own .
The higher classes iad indulged to a great extent in plundering the poor . First , the Reformatiea cat away the rights of the poor , and took from them their real inheritance in the church and abbey laiidsq and some of those who had helped to pass the New Poor Law Act had , ly their ancestors ^ a great haud in that 3 d of plunder . It was not merely the Whig and the Tory factions who were the enemies of tbe people ; hut there was an usurping little Radical faction ( so calling iLxflf ) joined the other two , and fully as much deserved our execrations . They were persons who got their power , seats , and means of mischief , by calling themselves Radicals , which was no other than a fraud ; and then they used that power against the people faliy as destructively as either Whig or Tory iacrioa could do . Therefore , in any demracia Uoas of W bigs and Tone * , he always included this h ' tile faction , which called itself "Radical , " but which was the most rotten and spurious of any faction in the nation . ( Cheers . )
Mr . Jokx Fieldex rose again , and ecteredintoa series of statements as to theearnings aad outgoiugs of working men and their families , in the three unions of Amp thill , "VVoburn , and Bedford , in Bed-ordscire , and said he had emploved to make inquiries , James Turner , of Briscoe-street , Manchester , aad Mark Crabtree . ofDHWsbury , short-time delegates . _ We have not space here for the mass of figures -which Mr . Fielden read , and which he said would be published in the appendix to the report of the Poor Law Committee .
Dr . MjTTaEW Fletcher , of Bury , then addressed the company . He commenced by statins that he would embrace that opportunitv of justifying himself for a statement he had made at Bury , that the food allowed in the Union Workheuses was not suffiaent for support . That assertion he still adhered to , and was ready to stake his professional character on its truth . He then adverted , in warm language , to the conduct of Power , the Commissioner , whom he charged with having been guilty of the grossest folsehood . He next referred to the
active part taken by Mr . Oastler in this measure : and assured the meeting that the assertion of Mr . Oastler respecting what he would do in case any Poop L = T Commissioner attempted to separate-him n-om his wife , expressed , exactly his own sentiments on the point- Adverting to the conduct of the Coinini * aoners , and the food allowed in the BasrHes , he said he should like Mr . Mott , one of the Commissioners , to live for three months © a water grnei . aad then he would not probably be quite so ready to determine that it was suitable feod for the poor . ( Hear , hear . )
^ Mt . Feargus O'Coxxob was then introduced to the company and was received with , several rounds « cheer * . He adverted to the bloody scene of Peterloo , in 1819—the very spot on which they were then assembled . He spoke of the progress of Radicalism , and themannerin wbichof late years it had spread , thus proving the . interest th& people had in the cause , andihe knowledge they possessed of what was their right He said he would not give a single pn s point for anything short of Universal Suffrage , ( tremendous cheers , ) for anything short of that great measure wasl&e-paitingapiece of sticking plaster npon a mortal wound . ( Cheers . ) He styled Mr . John Fielden 'Oldham's pride and ¦ England ' s ipory ;'• and said that nc other man held such a
disffliguished station in-the country . After some furto enlogy of Mr . Fielden , Mr . O'Connor said he would be sorry to advise the people against his mend ; bat when next he ( Mr . O'Connor ) signed a petition to the legislature , might his fingers cleave n ^ CT * -n At ] en ^ k tk * great make-weight , Dan U ConaelL had thrmen himself into the arms of Sir « obm Peel aad Lord John Resell ; so there was tiie Pope , theDeTBiandzflie Pretender .

< wff ends was by force of arms . ( Cheers . ) When he was in Manchester , he -nsed to take great delight in couching petitions in such terms as to show his contempt for the Legislature , and yet * o avoid such an infraction of the roles as would cause the rejection of the petition . He was very much afraid that the reverend gentleman ' s recommendation that we should go to arms at once , sounded much more the note of despair than the tone of wise deliberation Mr . Jahis Fatji . Cobbbtt n » xt addressed the meeting ,-and concurred with Mr . Step hens ( for whose intentions and talents he had a high respect ) and Mr , Whittle , that we had not only the right to resist , bnt that it was onr doty to do so j but after aU it was a question of expediency , policy , or necessity .

( Cheers . ^ Moreover , he shosld intimate in the most unqualified and unquestionable language , in terms not be misunderstood , who was to take the lead . It would natnrally occur to the minds of the listening advisees , that the man who advices ought himself to take the lead . ( Hear , hear , and cheers . ) He ( Mr , J . P . Cobbett ) had gtdned come discredit by inculcating the doctrine , that the people had the latent right to resist , even by physical force , if need were . He was not for a republic ; but for a government in which the whole of the people took a part—he was forUuirersal Suffrage . ( Cheers . )
The CHAi « MAji gave " Success to the Birmingham Union , the Korthem Union , and the Glasgow Union , " and said that the only gentleman appointed to speak to this . toast , had left tbe ' room . The toast was drnnk with three times three . Mr . Wbeeler and Mr . Smith , of the Working Men's Association of Liverpool spoke to the toast The next toast from the chair was— " The immortal memory of Major Carfsright , William Cobbett , Henry Hunt , and all the illustnoiis dead of every nation , who , by their actions or their writings , had contributed tothecanse of freedom . " ( Drunk in silence and standing . ) The health , of Mr . Richard Cobbett , secretary to the- dinner committee , was gir « H , but unacknowledged : Mr . R . B . B . Cobbett
having left the room . —The chair was then vacated , and taken by Mr . O ' Connor ; and Mr . Edw . Nightingale gave the hralth of Mr .

Hodgetts , in acknowledging it , said he had never kBovrn n . meeting of real working men in England where any man was required to preserve order .

FATAL RIOT KEAE , CANTERBURY . ( From the Ti / iics . ) ' Caxterbcbt , Friday Evening . —I send you herewith a report of the inquest held this day at the ¦ White Horse , a public-house ia Broughton , " ou the body of Nicholas Mears . I : terminated , as you will see , in a Teruict of wilful mxiTder against sundry oi rhe rioters . It appears , however , " from all that I have heard , that the rioters fought with the most desperate-courage , and that bad their weapons been at all equal to those of their antagonists the struggle would not have been so easily decided . Tfcev
rushed on the bayonets of tbe soldiery with the raye of fanatics ; and this will not surprise you when I inform you that this Courtenay or Tom * had represented h ) m ? elf to . them not -only as a political , but also as a religious , reformer . He blasphemously styled himself the Saviour of tbe world , and to convince his followers that he was so , pointed to certain punctures in his hands as those inflicted by the nails of the cross , and to a -cicatrice in his side as the wound out of which issued blood and water . He
also represented him ^ lf . as invulnerable to steel or shot ; and so completely has he deluded numbers in the neighbourhood into -the belief of bis moastrous 'ies that they even now £ incy that though be appear . * dead he will rise again on the third dav , and lead his followers -on to victory . A woman oi tbe nanieof Culver was told by this imposter that if she got some water and placed it oh his mouth , in case he was shot , he would shortly revive . On hearing of his death the woman filled ' a vessel with
water , walked half-a-mile with it and in " compliance with his instructions placed it on his lips . She was apprehended snon afterwards by order of the magistrate ^ , who imagine that her evidence will lead to th& arrest of more of the rioters . Verily Ihere is occasion that the schoolmaster should be sent abroad in this district .
In ashed near the Bed Lion , at Boagatoa-under-Blean , which i > two pules nearer to Canterbury , were placed the body of this Conrtenay , or Tom , and of the six poor wretches whom he " has betrayed to so miserable an end . There was great anxiety showu toget o eight of thasa , particularly of Coartenay . When I was at the place Courtenay ' s body had been removed to the Red lion itself , and was undergoing medical examination . " The other bodies , however , were lying cold and stark on the straw . They were evidently all commoa labourers in agriculture with OBe exception , that of a man who was shotthrough the heart , and in whose breast the perforation of thp bullet was distinctly visible The eyes of all were wide open , and the glare of them from being stripped of all intelligence was horribl y frightful . Oae onlr was killed by the bayonet . Judging from their loois
, I shonld say that the men were all about forty years of age . I have already said that Courteaay ' s body I did not see ; but I am informed that it exhibits great and even extraordinary muscular powe r * . His stature was tall , his form symmetrical , and his features expressive . He wore a great mass of hair , and allowed his beard to grow to a most preposterous length . Since his death his head has been shaved , for the purpose of allowing a plaster cast to be taken of his face ; and I have heard , such is the veneration in which numbers here hold him , that Tarious Bums of money have been offered to obtain a lock of his hair , and a fragment of the blood-stained shirt in -which he died . The women , with whom he was a prodigious favourite , seek these relics with the greatest avidity , and are described a 3 receiving them with the irost enthusiastic devotion .
The body of Lieutenant Bennett was also deposited at the same public bouse during tbe day . It wa » conveyed in a hearse to Canterbury this evening . His fate is Ttniversally lamented . He was a very fine-looking young man , the only son of an Irish gentleman of good fortune and family . He has died with the reputation of having been an excellent offieer and a perfect gentleman . The shot which killed him made but a slight puncture in entering his right side , but created a dreadful laceration in ppssjng ^ ot on his left . His servant J 3 said to have
arenged his fate by shooting Cpurtenay instantly thropgh the brain . That madman , I oueht to have stated ,- has the marks of two musket-wounds in his bead , besides one on his left shoulder , and another on bis left tbigh .. Mr . Prendergast also made a cut at "him with his sword as he rushed to the rescue of M 3 friend Mr . Bennett ; bo the was knocked down by some of Courtenay ' s bludgeon-men , and severely wounded in the head and arms , so that his blow did riot take effect . As he fell , however , he inflicted a severe wound on one of the rioters .
I may perhaps be forgiven for adding , that the Tillage of Bonghton formed this day an extraordinary contrast to tbe general appearance of a quiet Engnsh Tillage . A company of the 45 th Regiment were . wider arms there from an early hour in the morning , $£ there ; was some notion that an attempt might be made to rescue the prisoners confined at the "White-Horse . Nothing of the kind however occurred . / The rioters were tept ; in a room at the back bMhe inn , and . the scene in the yard , which waHffiea with their weeping and fainting wiTes and chflaren , has been described to me as heart-rending . Foar of them werr sent / at the close of the inquest , ¦ under a military escort , to" Maidstone gaol . The rest threein
, being twenty -number , were sent in twn omnibuses to Faversham gaol , the rioters belne . plMJediBode , and " the soldiers , Toth muskets foadH and bayonets fixed , oh the root The last party left -thewlsge at seven . o ' clock . ...-.- . * - , - j \ Hiastalreaay been stated that , fce * ride 9 .

INQXTEST ON NiefiOLAS MBARS . John Meare , plomber , in the parish of Bonghton —is a constable . Yesterday morning he proceeded xZSP * 5 ° f e ^ cn , towarda the residence of one W * S" ?^! f' fOT tbe ^ tlrP 08 e tf executing three warrants for the apprehension of William Courtenay , «/« w John Tom , Vniiam ^ ill ., and Edward New ! S « i ^ a ^ mpanied by Daniel Edwards and Nicholas Mears , whom he had . caUed to his assist . STvf > 7 * * m BQrfor « > Thomas Mears , ahas ^ Tyler , and several others heard some one front of the house , William Couttenay made his anpearance , and said , « Are you th « constable ?» It « Y ^ A « r dece v a 8 ed ^ d witness answered _ xes . AUthepersonsbvit Courtenavim iiw ^^^ - n »«»^ nv ....... - y ^ ^ ° ^^ _ ° ? f ^ ^ ARS . ; .
, Courtenay immediately presented a ' pistol at the deceasea , and fired . The deceased then restedoa a fence , and shortly afterwards fell to the ground . Urartenay then struck at the witness with a dacW whjch he had' in his left hand , but missed Mm . witness then ran away , and was followed by Courtenay but succeeded in . escaping ,- as Courtenay was near falling . Witness then went to Faversham , and obtained warrants against William Courrenay Wilhmn Price , William Borford ; ana Thomas Meara altos Tyler , for the vpiUulmurder of Nicholas Jnears . Having the warrauts , he obtained the assistance of Dr . Poor * and Sir . Knatchbull , and he was accompanied by a great number of persons to assist nim ; they proceeded to Tairbrook field , in the parish ol Boughton-under-Blean and there saw a body of
, men , about forty or fifty in number , armed with bludgeons . He distinctly saw W . Courtenay pre-8 e ^ ° ^ thin ? at two gentlemen , Major Handley and the Rev . Mr . Handley , who were passing at the nine , and then he beard a report of a pistol . Courtepay s men then proceeded towards the place where witness s brother had been shot in the morning : he recognised Et this time a labouring man , William Wills , and Thomas Mears , who was armed with a bludgeon . He then proceeded towards the Red Lion , on the turn-pike road , and there saw a large body of soldiers . Before the . party left the osierned at Fairbrook , he heard a bugle sound , and the men immediately formed in marching order , directed by Courtenay , and so marched towards the hou&e of Mr . Francis , at Fairferook , and then came round .-the
road to the wood towards Bosenden . Witness accompanied about fifty soldiers up the road towards Bosenden , Mr . Knatchbull and others still being with him ; and , hearing a noise in the wood , they immediatel y turned into a road leading into the woed , and when they proceeded about half a mile savr Courtenay ' s party . We recognised among them ^ ' ° men , named Wright , alias Ford , Thomas Mears , William Wills , William Rye , Henry Hadtow , Spratt , Edward Curling , Phinoas ¦ Harvey , William Burford , Thomas Griggs , aud Gauge . He also saw Courtenay with them , having a pistol in his right hand . One of tbe officers approached them , and Courtenay called to his company to come on . Courti-nay immediately got within stride of the officer , presented the pistol at him , fired it off , and killed him
on the spot ; the order was then given to the soldiers to fire , and they obeyed . Saw William Nulls very active at this time , assisting and d «! - iending \\ illiar » Conrtenay . The entire body ' of men tben came forward with their bludgeons very violently and resolutely attacked- the soldiers and the other persons who were assembled to assist the magistrates . William Courtenay called to the men to follow him up close , or something to that effect , and they did so ; upon the soldiers firing . William Courtenay ana several of his followers fell , come being killed on the spot , and others wounded : great confusion ensued for some time , when several persons were taken prisoners , who are bow in custody : the soldiers continued to fire until the nu * n desisted from their attack , and then an officer desired the soldiers to desist , which they immediate ' . y did .
Daniel Edwards , of Bcughtou-under-Blean , labourer and petty constable , gave similar evidence . , J-he Rev . Charles Richard Handlev , of Herne-. H : ~ esterda - ' between eleven " arid twelve o clock , I saw a large body of men proceeding from the direction of Mr . Francis ' s house , at Fairbrook , towards the osier-Wd . Accompanied by his brother Benjamin Handley , he rode to a meadow adjoining the osier-bed , where he . saw a large j » arty of persons , and very shortly afterwards saw Courtenay , whom he knew . Advanced towards a party near Mr . Francis ' s house ; this party " was the Magistrates and Constables . Cour ; enay more than once called them cowards . Witness advanced close- to the
osierbed , addressed the men , and * exhorted them to leave Courtenay , as be had murdered one of their neighbours , and was guilty of high crimes and misdemeanours , and that unless they did so , they would get into great trouble . Courtenay again retunud to the osier-bed , where witness was with his brother , and said , " I wj ] l plant a ball in your heart , Sir . " Witness was about twenty-five or thirty yards from him at the time ; his brother said to Ceurtecay , c J You are a madman ; " and Courtenay immediately tired at his brother ; bis brother said , "We want to come to a parley with you and jour men . " Courtenay then turned round in an insulting manner , and returned to the osier-bed . His brother then
addressed the men , telling them they were guilty of high treason . Witness again addressed them to the same effect , and then went round into the Feversham road and joined the party of Magistrates and Constables before mentioned . At this time he saw Courtenay and his party advance from the osier-bed towards FaiTbrook , passing at the distance of about thirty yards , Courtenay at their head , and all walking singly . Saw amongst them WHliarn Knight , Thomas Mears , alias Tyler , Edward Wraight , the elder , Edward Curling , Noah Miles , Charles Hadlow , and a youth also named Hadhrw . As they witness
passed he again addressed them , calling several by name , to wit , Charles Hadlow , Noah Miles , and Edward Wraight , and begged of them to leave Courtenay . He asked Noah Miles if he had any regard for his family to leave Courtenay . Miles replied he had regard for his family ; Hadlow made a reply which he did not hear . From what witness heard aud saw , he is quite satisfied that the civil power was insufficient to quell the disturbance , and it would have been imprudent for Mr . Knatchbull and his party to attempt the apprehension of Courtenay and the other persons against whom warrants had been issued .
Charles Neame , of Sellinge , yeoman , was fully satisfied from what he saw that the civil power could not queU the riot , and that it was absolutely necessary to call in the military ; and , in fact , if the military had not been called in , he was decidedly of opinion that much more blood would have been shed than there had been , and was confirmed in this by the resolute manner in which the peasantry attacked the military . The Jury then returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against William Couitenay , otherwise John Tom ( dead ) , William Burford ( dead ) , William p rice , Thomas Mears , otherwise Tyler , cousin of the deceased ( wounded ) , Alexander Foad ( wounded ) , and William Nutting . " The accused were then committed to Maidstone Gaol .
INQUEST ON LIEUTENANT BENNETT . On Friday night ' several additional prisoners were captured at Houghton and Herne Hill by the constables , assisted by the military . Ihey were immediately conveyed to the gaols of Canterbury and Feversham , to await examination . On Saturday morning-J . T . Delassaux , Esq ., Coroner for that part of Kent , assembled a Jury at the White Horse Inn ; : in the Tillage of Boughton . near . Canterbury , for the purpose of inquiring into the circumstances of the death of Lieut . tHenry 'Boswell Bennett , of the 44 th regiment of infantry , who was shot by the soi-< fj > ar «/ Sir W . Courtenay . MajorElliotArmstrong examined—I am Major the 4 oth

SMITHFIELD ' CATTLE MARKET , June 4 . [ Whenever the word stone occurs in these prices throughout this paper , it is to be considered as the imperial atone of 14 lbs . and such onlyi no other being lawful . ] The supply of Beasts in our market to-day was larger whilst the general quality of it was tolerably prime . As the attendance of both London and country bnyers was not yrery n-umerons , arid . ' tho weather unfavourable for slaughterintr the demand for Beef was very heavy , at barely Friday's depression of 2 d perSlbs . At the close of the trade , a large n ^ imbeT of Beastsvwas turned out unsold . Althbui ; li there was a very moderate quantity of store stock offering , and there is a good quantity of grass in the pasruresj exceedingly Httlewaa doing in lean stock . ¦ We have rtHSeiyed by steam packets , from Dundee and Aberdeen , a very Mge supply of live beasts and sheep ;; indeed , it may be considered the largest that has anived during the whole of the present vear YXriAl . « A .. nK » fc Ia llm M »^ i : »« L ^ - .
