      : FACTORY QUESTION . 1 -MEETING ATTHE COMMERCIAL OnTFednesday evening last , a meeting waR held : in tf » large room at the Commercial Buildings , for * fce -purpose of remonBtrating "with Parliament . At the time appointed for commencing business , fbe room was well filled , and the audience , during . tJie whole _ of the proceedings , evinced the deep interest which they felt in the question . - Mr . Scrdtos was nanimonsly called to the Chair . After stating the object of the meeting , he ^ adverted to Ms recent illness in consequence of -which , he had been prevented , for some time past , from taking that active part on this question which lie felt lie should like to take ; but still he now ,

      thxoogh the goodness of heaven , hoped to see the day when the friends of the poor factory child would -obtain a glorious and triumphant victory . ( Loud -cheers . ) It gave Wm great pleasure to see that the operatives were not desisting from their exertions , . zad he was sure that those exertions must be ulti--saately succeeded with their proper reward : for this ~ waa no party political question , it was one involving < &eiffterests of humanity , and as such was deserving « &cmve » al attention . He then read the advertise-• saeat-calling the meeting , and observed that he = « koald be glad to hear any Mend jpeak on the question . Hi . G . White then rose to move the petition and vasawnstrance . He said they were called upon . again to lift up their voices in the cause of suffering

      tnmanity . Many were the evils to which the workxag classes were subjected , butTie hesitated not , to 'ascribe them all to one and the same cause *—b ad government . The Chairman had said they were ton in the land of freedom ; he should like to know -where the freedom was , for he had seen little of it yet . ( Hear , hear . ) The question upon which they » ere then met , was one that had long been agitated , and which involved the most important interests of every class of the community , but more particnlady those of the youthful part of society , who felt , io a most alarming degree , the unparalleled evils of -the present Factory system . Notwithstanding , how-- * ver , that this question was one involving interests - < of the deepest importance ,, was it not parsing

      strange , that the suffering and - oppressed Nejrro should find so many ardent advocates amongst the animsters of religion and other philanthropic persons , and ^ et , that these persons had not one feeling of pity for the poor factory child who toiled so hard - » procure the very luxuries which the * e persons enjoy ( hear , hear , ' and shame ) . Great , veiy great ¦ arere the inconveniences to which the factory cbi . d-: res were subjected . They were p laced in a situation ^ witicli afforded no opportunities ior mental improvement ; destitute of this which wis an important stay to morality , their morals necessarily became corrupt ; -and what was still worse , notwithstanding the poor diHdren had no possible means of avoiding these srils , they were , when grown to maturity , taunted bvi > otli VVhigs aud Tories , with being ignorant ,

      itniEOia ] , nay Jfft / charactersjwhen the very circumstances In which they were placed were such as necessarily to constitutethem bad characters , ( Shame , shame j The simple question , then , for them to determine was , shall the capitalist be allowed to exercise the ¦ power of his capital to the detriment of every workxng man in the kingdom ? If the capitalists as they -ar-e called , were in possession of capital , surely 11 was i ? nongii for these men that they cid possess it ' ^ rKhout depriving the children of their small means of acquiring education , ihus loading Vheir minds a jlani , and afterwards taunting , them with their ignorance , as the reason wliy their riglits slionld be withheld from them ( hear , near , and cheers ) . He concluded his address bv reading and moving tbe adoption of tlie petition and remonstrance .

      31 r . William Rider seconded its adoption . He sa . id they were assembled for a purpose which ought not te be required at their hands . They were compelled to stand forth novr , as they had " been upon many former occasions , to oppose a system which ¦ even the most savage tribr-s would not suffer to obtain amongst them ( hear , hear ) . Here in an enlightened country , they were obliged te raise their voices against a sysiem pregnant with every thincalculated to prednce evil ; audj-et , notwithstanding this , they were surrounded " with innumerable facilities for improving , enriching and adorning the

      imman mind . ( Hear , hear . ) Here in Lusland . a Christian country , where temples of religion meet 4 he eye in every direction , where the gospel trumpet is sounded from shore to shore , and the archangel ihsme , peace on earth and good-xrili to men . is echoed Irom every vale , and procl-jimed from every mountain top , —here , in this Christian country , they * rere compelled to war against a system destructive of their peace-inimical to their social and domestic happiness , and directly at variance with the princnpies of that religion Vhich is professed amonpst u < . Zvow amorisst such a mass o ! inconsruities—amid

      such a heterogeneous state of things , ought they to remain silent and inactive ( no , lo ; . HewhociJuld ¦ remain supine and indifferent under such circnm-^ stances was unworthy the name of a . man , and ought for ever to associate with tie wild beasts of the forest . ( Laughter , and cheers for Mr . O'Connor ~ xh . o at this moment entered the room . ) The cause of the factory slave was a righteous cause , one in which every friend of huraaiiity would enlist . XHear , hear , and cheers . ) AH men might be co-workers , together in this sacred cause . On this question , they might co-operate togeth-r - * vithout the manifestation -: f those angry feeling- ; manifested by parrv politicians and party religionists . It was a lamentable fact , however , thai

      too few of those who-were called great and powerful , were found amongst the advocates of the helpless factory child . But though-they might si ^ i id aloof ; rtiil the factory slaves had helpers aud ih ^ - < - = ot a few . Though " Parliament might trifle with this all-importaut subject , though they might ivjeot an efficient Ten Hours' Bill , though they mi . -hi beset their ugly bantlings , Tind when they could no ; lazker them up ' on the people , wish to burk tneiu . - yet , notwithstanding all this , the people con id let uiem know , and must let them know , that thev "wen * determined thai the youthful captives >! iuul " i be free . ( Loud cheers . ) If they had a spark ol patriotism glowing in their bo .-oins , they would not i < Englishmen \ oix £ allow the rising ge ' u .-rarion of

      tae country to be sacrificed at the snnne of ihis modem Moloch . Every man of g- » od feeling an 4 common sense would admit that children oujrlit not to supplant their parents in the Held " of labour . The steam g " , ant ought not to go forth urirestricte i . . Machinery ought to be made subservient to th .-latPrests of the labourer , as well as the interests of "be capitalists ; and it rested alone with the people cu accompli > h this object . ( Hear , hear . ) Petition * innumerable had been sent to Parliament without effc-et ; it was time , therefore , that peiitroriing \ vr » - laid a * ide . and it w ^< with pleasure that he enrne / ora-ari on th t occasion to second a thing called a

      "^ monstrance . ( Cheers . ) What reason was there "hit trade and slavery , long Lours and short wages . » bouli gt ) hand in band . lie might ask the masters rill doomslay for a reason before one could be a ~ - » i ? TK * d . There was no reason in the matter ; and ~ Uie present system must be abolished or it would entirely ruin the nation . The nasty , snarling , stinking curs , who crept into holes anil corm-rs , would -isk , w » uld uot an Eleven Hours' Bill remedy the < e defects :- ( No . ) He al-osaid no ; an Elev n Hours ' -iiul wuuld not settle vhe question ; it wonld not -aS % fy tba employers ; it would not answer the demandu of humanity , neither would it remove the fiSEl blot which that vvst ^ m Imd ra < t hmh «„• iUEl blot waich that system had cast our

      , upon nation . Ten honrs a-day were sufficient for either aw or beast to toll ; and every man fcr that amount of labour ought to be requited with so much of th « ascessaries of life both for himself and his familv . / . Hear , hear . ) Ten honrs a day were sufficient for baraau nature to toil it was as much as hnmau mature could with impanity sustain . The eleven hoars' men said it was not ; but to bring th ' . s point : o the test , he would refer to the evidence of the iroit eminent medical men of the day . All he recommended then , was ,. for them to do their duty zE&nfully to their children , their families , and thpir coantry . ( Hear , hear . ) In conclu-ion , he begged to tell them that he did not consider that much

      ^ ood would result from their remonstrance to the House -if Commons , but he also told them that he 'vruald so ) ner have his hand severed from his body taan he would either move , sign or propose a peti * - ~ ° \ i to * atilfamo ^ den . ( Loudcheers . ) r iT" Co : sso * flieu toss to snpport the adoption of the remonstrance , and was received with several rounds of the most enthusiastic cheering . He said i ^ Z ?

Rider ' s speech , which led them to think that the present ^ as not a pohncal question ; in fact , Tie divided ^ e who were called politician , fito two d £ -tmct cW * whoimghtbe judged of from themannir in which they met this question ; he termed theniSTe / -ich oppressor against the poor oppressed S # 10 to

( Cheers . ) What he would a § k , was the object of this meeting ? They were taunted with being a set of ignorant fellows , ¦ srh o would despise the tews and pull down the Con ^ stitutioH , and who would not obey an act of parliament ; yet hftre they were coming forward- to enoeavour to make the money-mongers obey an act ^ parliament , ( Cheers . ) The present Factory Bill ariai of WM g creation , mixed with a little Tory in-¦ ge-oient , aud so loose , that , to use an old phrase myrnt dnve and

      hear , and cheers . ) The question , then , which they were really met to determine wasv -whether or Jaot they could obtain a demand for the supply which their labour created . If they were to work six hours a day with their present machinery , they would even then have their market * overstocked -with goods . But he contended that there was no necessity for the working-classes to labour ten or eight hours a day . It was found that in every ai tide of luxury the rich were increasing day after day , whereas the poor whose hours of toil were daily on the increase , were , even in the commonest necessaries of life , suffering a continnal diminution . . It was impossible , therefore , that they could exist even with a Ten Hours' Bill , unless they had the

      same controulover their labour which the agriculturist had over his produce , namely , to s * nd it' into the markets when the supply was required . In all other instances , people could do this , and the capitalists , knowing that such was thu case , endeavoured to throw the factory labourers oat of this position bvbreaking down trades' combinations . He hoped , however , as this was not to be considered a party question , that it would not hamadea Tory stepping-stone to get the Tories intEuiy thing like out-door support , for when Lord J ^ P ^ r formed a part of the Tory Administration , he refused to do anything in this cause ; but the moment that Peel and his party were dismissed , and the . Whigs were

      in power ,- he wrote to a mend to asK linotning could be done for the . poor factory child . ( Hear , hear , and laughter . ) The same thing might be said in reference to the Tory agitation against the Poor Law Amendment Act . ( Hear , hear . ) Now , he mentioned these facts to teach themnot to place their confidence in any mau , let his political name be what it might ; they were to judge him by his works . ( Loud and continued cheers . ) Oastler was designated a Tory , yet few men had done greater service on this question . ( Cheers . ) On the othtrhand , O'ConneU was called a Radical , and yet be gave the casting vote against the factory children . ( Hear , hear , and cheers . ) If the manufacturers of this , country knew anything of their own interests ,

      they would find it better that they should have half a ~ loaf rather than -no bread ; and this would certainly be the position in which they would place themselves if they persisted in driving the people to that state of desperation to which they were now driving them . They talked of the poverty of the country ; there was no snch thing as pov rty in the country ; all that was necessary to make all parties comfortable , was to make an equal distribution of the wealth which was made by machinery . ( Cheers . ) Truly , the advocates , of an equal distribution of wealtsi were called Destrnctives , and Infidels : but

      r-n luhdel of the present day , according to the definition of Earl Fitzwiiliain and bis associates , was a jnan that believed in God , but not in the parson or the tithes . ( Loud cheers . ) He did not ask for them any thing extraordinary , he was merely following out the assertion . of-hii--friend Rider , when lie said lhat the improvement of the masters had been too great \ he ouly asked that the improvement of the people should go on progressively with theirs . ( Hear , hear , aud cheers . ) And to whom could they pore properly apply , ' than to the sovereign of this country for tue protection of their children and the ; r wives ? She wa ~ shortlv to

      experience , the highest possible honour which this country coa'ersupou any individual —( hear , hear )—that of being crowned the monarch of these realms . As a woman he respected the Queen ; but he must say , ttiat he had no respect for a monarch , whether King or Queeu , who had no respect for thrir subjects . ^ Loud cheers . ) For this reason they were called agitators and demagogues ; h ^ cloned in the name of demagogue , and he aj-ked whether he deserved better of the country , or those men who had oppressed ih-m . nud allowed them to brood over their wrongs until their blood was wasted in th ^ ir veins , aud fuer were almost driven from despair to Tes > -rt U > what his friend Rider seemed almost afraid to name . ( Hear , hear . ) The present

      struggle was entirely between the landed propr ietors and the' manufacturers . The latter would advocate a Repeal of the Corn Law * , not for the sake of doing a kindness to the starving , half-fed millions , but in order thnt they might obtain the labour of the people at a cheaper rate . ( Hear , hear . ) The fact was , that such was the present influence of the manufacturer * , that they were the masters of Lord John Russell and the . Melhourne administration ; they were consequently the sole governors nf t ; ie country , for being aware of their influence , tht-y determined to have such measures carried as they de . Mred , and their threat to the ministry wa ^ , *• if y »> u do nut pass this measure , we will withdriirt" oar support from y .: u altogether , "

      anl L ;> rd John Rn-sell knows that he could nut do without tiiein . ( Heur , hear ) It was necessary , then , for ti |^ eop . e of thi £ country to stand aloot from both Write . TUeypresen ; Factory Bill was the raauulacturers o ' vfll measure , aud they should uot complain about it . He , us he had often s ; siJ , was no e-ueiny tn the iutroduc ion of machinery , but he was ; m euemy to the uuin . r distribution of the wealth ina . ie 1 > y luach . nery . ( Cheers . ) ^ lacbinery , aowe >« r , was uav < ifier vi-. iy j . a " . uing so much a heau of the people , ttiat they had no chance -whatever of competing with it . but tae people had it in their power to jirewnt all this evil . If they could but be brought to kii ** their own interests , if they would pat the . r hauls into tieir pockets for a single

      week , in-y luight dictate to the Government and say we will work just mi many hours and no more ; and if this me , ( . iovernnieiit was perfectly conscious .

      GREAT RADICAL MEETING AT SCARBOROUGH . On Friday last , a very numerous , and highly respectable meeting was held in Mr . Garnett ' s Great Room , Britannia Hotel . Mr . luchbold in the chair . The Chaiiimax said , that the meeting -was convened for the purpose of bearing Mr . Feargus

      practice , ana give to all a fair and patient hearing : ( hear)—for among so large an assemblage there might be many shades of opinion ; they might hear much to approve and something to condemn ; but he trusted that approval or condemnation would be decorously expressed . ( Cheers . ) He was sure that the people of ^ arborough , would well weigh and maturely consider the nature of the several resolutions about to be proposed , before they either sanctioned their adoption or rejected them altogether ( Hear , hear . ) He would conclude bv calling upon Mr . Samuel Spark to move the resolution . Mr . Spabk then moved aud Mr . Thomas Lawsox seconded the following resolution : —

      1 . That the condition of the working classes is daily becoming worse , while the aristocracy , and middle classes seem not only to increase their possessions , but to become more expensive in their habits , and thus the producers of wealth are sacrificed to the dominion of idle consumers . 2 . That the Reform Bill having failed to produce the promised benefits for the industrious ^ millions , we pledge ourselves to struggle for tae attainment , of Universal Suffrage , by which alone the people can expect to be represented in the House of Commons .

      3 Th % t both Whigs and Tories have alternately used us for their purposes , and for their benefit , and have taken advantage of our want of imion ' " ** & to to prevent a recurrence of such practices . We hereby pledge ourselves to form an Association , to be called . j Qie Scarbro' Radical Association , the objects of which shall ^ e to attain Annual Parliaments , Universal Suffrage , Vote by Ballot , Equal Representation , no Property Qualification for Members of Parliament , and tie payment » f Representatives . . - - Mr . O'CopoR ^ then presented himself , and was received with lond and long continued applause . He said that some of the observations of the chair

      man , had father staggered the general opinion which he had formed of the working dastieK ^ ior the chair ' manbeing aware of the - nature of the ^^ fesoliitlons , and of the princip les of llr . O'Connor , must feel convinced that the spirit and the principle wdtAl be well received , and not subject to condemnation , at least by the working portion of the community , the only portion to which he Mr . O'Gonnor directed his agitation . ( Cheers , and hear , hear . } It may be , and perhaps it was the case , that Radicalism at Scar « bra ' was yet but an infant in the political cradle . ( Cheers , and no , no . ) - Mr . O'Connor : yran glad to hear it , and was convinced ( hat although they had not heard much lip ag itation , that yetr the great demaKogues , » pbverty , circumstances , and class

      distinction had matured their mmd « for the' coming change . ( Cheers . ) True , the Factory Systein , the chimney threatening the heavens , ' and the cruel master threatening the destruction of God's "' creature * , had not yet found their way to Scarbro '; but there was , no barrier to their onward march , no fence round the peaceful watering place , neither h £ U dale , or valley , offered obstacles to the unrestricted march of the pennies of the poor man—( cheer 3 , and hear , hear , )—and even if all these symbols had not reached them Scarborough would not be free from the general contagion which was fast spreading through the land-r ( true ) - — aye , true * the operation of the faetory gysteni , and the subjugation of labour to capital in Manchester ,

      Liverpool , Leeds , or elsewhere , would send the uni employed to Scarborough as competitors , in their market , and thus poverty like the waters would meet its level . Mr . O'Connor then entered into a full discussion about the New Corporation Law , which seems to have gratified the people of Scarborough , as their share of reform , he asked them if they now had less corporate dues . ( No , no ;) He entpred fally into the several topics contained in the resolutions , full convincing the people that Universal Suffrage , and that alone could give fair protection to the working classes . He drew a comparison between the government of Whigs and Tories , and showed that whether under the dominion of j the one or the other , the people paid the same taxes , and

      had no more comforts or protection for their industry . He said that their triumph simply consisted iu the political distinction of the leaders of that class who professed principles most nearly allied to those entertained by the working classes . Mr . O'Connor dwelt at considerable length upon the question of Annual Parliaments , the state , of parties in and out of "the House of Commons , and the projected surrender of Whiggery by tbe Council of Birmingham , to the Union of ' 'Birmingham .. ' By this he showed the great progress of popular strength when even local and influential leaders could no longer hold station and p reserve popularity upon what was called -progressive and moderate Reform . Mr . O'Connor then went into a consideration of the

      several descriptions of property , and the order and manner in which each is taxed , showing that- the rich may regulate the amount of taxes they pay , either by tlie use of , cr abstaining from taxed articles , while the poor are met by the exciseman and the tax-gatherer upon all hands . lie addressed the meeting for twohours , through which he was loudly and rapturously cheered . After he had concluded , the Chairman put the resolutions , when one hand only was held up against them . : The gentleman was in the middle of the ' room , and Mr . O'Connor again instantly started forward and challenged him to refute his position , which being declined , Mr . O'Connor said , the gentleman wears creamcoloured fine trousers , polished boots , a fu .-hionablycut single-breasted frock coat , and has . held up a lily-white hand , unfurrowed with the wrinkles of labour , which he has dared to show as emblematical

      of tue physical force of his ' party , which has so long kept tlie moral power of the people in subjection . Mr . O'Conuor then , in the most bitter , sarcastic , and energetic terms , denounced the gentleman , and a small knot who seemed to support him , until he literally wound the meeting np to a state of indescribable excitement , and sat down amid clapping of bunds and waving of hats . A vote of thanks was then given to the- 'Chairman and Mr . O'Connor , to which both gentlemen responded , when the numerous party , together with hundreds who beset the windows , but could not gain admission , then departed , having first pledged themselves to the immediate formation of a Radical Association . . Thus has the seed been sown , and we hope for a plentiful harvest . Never was . there a more peaceable , attentive , orderly , . or enthusiastic meeting . All that the people require is the schoolmaster

      HOUSE OF LORDS . —Tuesday , June 10 . Several private Bills were forwarded a stage . CRIMINAL CODE . On the motion of the Duke of RICHMOND , the petition of the magistrates of Sussex , on the subject of the criminal codi ? presented in April last , was referred to the select committee now sitting on this subject .

      POOR LAW AMENDMENT ACT . Earl STANHOPE presented petitions praying for the repeal ' of the Poor Law Amendment Act , from Cove ' ntry ; th « parishes of St . Mary and St . Clement , in the fame city ; the parish of St . Swithin , near Coventry ; the parishes o ' f St . Peter , St Martin , St . Laurnnoe , St . Helen , St . John bepu chre , and St ' Peter Ludgate , inthe city of Norwich ; the hamlet orHisham , near Norwich ; the parishes of St . James and St . Stephen , Nottingham ; and some otheT parishes the names of which did not Teach us . The Eail of RADNOR supposed that the petitions were all drawn up m the same words , but he wished to ask the question , because the one he had seen did not contain the luual words " your petitioners humbly pray , " &c , and it could not be received . : - Earl STANHOPE said . that he was instructed to say that the parties who ha 4 signed these petitions would not again peti tion , but that if they again addressed the House it would . be in the form of a remonstrance . " -

      RIOT NEAR CANTERBURY . . Eart STANHOPE rose to present a petition on an entirely ditjerent subject—it referred to the circumstances of the late melancholy occurrencesr&the ^ county of Kent ( Hear , hear hear !) The petition came from tha London Democratic Association , —( laughter)—and he was aware that , not being a corporate bodjr , the petition could be ' received only as the petition ' of the individuals \ vhose names were attached to the petition . They . were the names of the officers of thp society the chairman ( whose name we did not f atch , ) and Hardy the secretary . ^ The petitioners Were anxious that inquiry might be instituted into the facts of the late ^ lamentable catastrophe and that the parties implicated and who were now imprisoned ' might be discharged frpni custody , in order that they might twe evidence , » nd that all proceedings against them might e stayed . The prayer of the petition was founded on the

      tnree loliowing reasons , with which he would trouble the House . The hrst was that the man who was the leader was a maaman , of which there were various proofs ; secondly , that itwas admitted on aU hands that previously to the killine of the constable there was no breacn of the peace committed and , thirdly , that the military were called out to aid the civil power before any evidence had been given that the parties meant to commit a not , and that the muitary were not authorised by law to interfere till after the reading of the Riot Act —( hear , hear , hear!)—by which the magistrates had rendered themselves liable for the unfortunate result ; and they had done so the more \« hen with the interference of the military were coupled the instructions given by Dr . Poore to take Courteaay vjead or alive , " and the fact that the officers commenced the affray . The petitioners prayedfer the appointment of a committee to investigate the deplorable event s and , till the report should be made , to suspend all judicial proceedings connected therewith . The petition had the word " humbly , " in the prayer . . . : " ¦ . Lord BROUGHAM said that it was unlucky that this was the third time that evening that h « had to oppose a petition presented b y the Noble Lord . The Noble Lord seemed to

      suppose that because the word "humbly" was omitted from a petition , and it was rejected , therefore if the ward appeared the petition would be Tegular , and would be received . Now > he ( Lord Brougham ) die . sot object to this petition because it came from the Democratic Association , but because it contained a prayer with which the House had no power to Comply ;! ( Hl > lU \ hear !) If the House complied with that prajprit would be guilty of a breach of the law , and would render themselves liable to a proceeding which he would not describe . ( Laughter . ) The Earl of WIN CHILSEA was ignorant of any power which the House possessed to liberate the parties now in prison , and he should : turn a democrat himself if he thought that the Honse of Lord's had the power to . release without trial parties charged with the commission of crimes . He thought that the jiartk-s now in prison had been properly committed . LordiKYNHAM maintained the men had lost tlieir lives through the misconduct of the magistrate . ? , and he wished to ask the Noble V . isccmnt whether it was the intention of the ilovernmeht to institute any such inquiry into the conduct of thumugistra'tus ?

      The Duke of RICHMOND hoped that his ncble friend at the ln'iid pf her MajpHt yVgoverninent would give no answer to the question . ThiMiuvistion was put , <<¦ That tue petition be received ;' and tho nun'contents being declared to have it , the petition was rejected . After which came a great deal of talk about the Western and Oxford Railway Bill , and tin ; affairs of Spain .

      ft ednesday , June 20 . The House of Lords did not sit yesterday . In the House of Cornmolis , Mr . Hope took the oaths and his seat for Linlithgow . v ; ¦ . A groat number of petitions was then presented ; aftur which the dropped notices and orders of the previous day were disposed of . Mr . HARVEY deterred till to-morrow his motion respecting the statement contained in the Times newspaper of the-: 16 th of June , upon the administration of the Poor Law in the Hartismere Union , in the county of Suffolk , and gave notice that he should move that that statement be referred to the Poor Law Committee . [ It appears not a little strange that the Hon . and Learned Member should confide an y iu yes ti { ja ' tion to a trib unal from , which he himself seceded on the ground of the partiality of its proceedings . But perhaps the Hon . and Learned Member will to-morrow night explain how the Corninittee have reinstated themselves iu his confidence and good opinion . ]

      Mr . Serjeant TALFQDRD , at the suggestion of Mr , Gladstone , withdrew the Copyright Bill . Mr . S . O'BRIEN also withdrew the Sheriffs ( Ireland ) Bill . Mr . PLUMPTRE moved the recommittal of the Lord ' s Day Bill . Alter some discussion , the motion was carried by a majority of 22 , and the committee proceeded , after postponing the preamble , to consider the first clause , which indeed involves the main objects of the bill . Several amendments were proposed ( and defeated ) for the purpose of getting rid of this clause : but no progress was made with the Bill : and the ultimate result was that the Chairman reported progress (!) and obtained . leave to sit again , Ihe House adjourned at half-past two o ' clock this morniiig .

A new combination of powerful natural Remedies tire also brought to bear on every sort of SCROFULOUS COMPLAINT with unerring Success ; and all those . Indulent and Malignant ULCERS that resist the " regular" modes , are effectually Cured by

      J . L . TV ABB , Surgeon , 18 , Trafalgar Street , Leeds . The References which Mr . Ward has already been induced to lay before the Public , regarding his Success in the Treatment of Cancer , might be doomed amply sufficient to establish his Claims to tbe entire confidence of every one afflicted with this Mahtdy . But to illustrate more fully the unparalleled efficacy of his System of Cure , arid the Success of his Practice ,. a List of those dreadful Cases that resist the " regular" modes will successivel y appear .

      1 ho following Case is peculiarly interesting : — A Lady ef the highest respectability , who was for severaV years afflicted with an increasing Tumour in li one of her breasts , which hal materially affected her health , placed herself under a Surgeon in Leeds , ( lately deceased , ) , who by the " regular " plans of treatment aggravated the malad y , and brought on debility of constitution , so as to render her recovery beyond hope . In this state she applied to Mr , Ward , who by his own process of treatment has restored her to perfect health , and thoroughly eradicated this Tumour , without the knifey so that her , cure is rapidly progressing . Having received such astonishing and unexpected relief , she is desirous of explaining to any female similarly afflicted , who niay call upon her , every particular of her

      case . , Name and , Address may be had at the Surgery , where this and many other enormous Tumours may be seen . ¦

      A Large Tumour removed without the Knife . Mr . Samuel Black well , of the Peacock Inn , Islington , near Leeds , is desirous of making it known that he had a Growing Tumour on his head , about an inch above his left eye-brow j , for above eight years , which had become such a size that it Was with difficulty that he could keep his hat on , — and , from its weight , made him feel very

      uncomfortable . This Tumour came from an accidental blow of a pair of tongSj and was round , the form of the tongs-head that produced it . Mr . Blackwell having seen cures of Cancers and Tumours advertised in the Leeds Newspapers , which had been performed by Mr . Ward , lost no time in becoming Mr . Ward ' s patient , who effectually removed the said Tumour , without cutting , and has performed a perfect cure some months ago .

      ^ Ihe well-known evils that are so frequently inflicted on the unfortunate sufferers from Cancers by the use of the knife , have , no doubt , been an inducement for the most illitef ate persons to profess the cure of this disease . Such , however , are too contemptible , seriousl y , to notice ; but as there is a member of the Xi Royal College of Surgeons , " in LondoH , who lately went from tie neighbourhood of Leeds , and who has commenced the treatment of Cancer upon Mr . Ward ' s System , and has published a book on this subject ; Mr . Ward deems it a duty that he owes to himself and the public to say ,

      that this Individual is totally ignorant of Mr . "Ward ' s mode of treating the varieties of this malady , not having been taught it , and that his assumed knowr ledge is merely from a recipe , or a certain form of applications , tiiat he bought from Mr . Ward ' s late Brother , and that although these applications are valuable to a certain extent ^ this M . R . C . S , has , according to his own shewirig , committed incalculable misrhief , and that from his unacquaintanee with the nature ^ of what he uses , and the nature of the disease , he never can , be trusted with any in > - portant case .
