mandtd admWinn as the friend of a pauper named Woods , hut was informed that days were set apart on which alone ( except in casts of ' emergency ) paupers were allowed to » ce their friends , and if he came then he might have the requirt-d interview : Mr . S . after bf ' ina thus refu-ed , claimed admission as the spiritual adviser of Woods , but it * -as explained to him that gentlemen of tba : description must be Pent , for by an inmate requiring religious consolation , or they could not be adulated in their clerical capacity . A * a rate-payer , Mr . Small was perfrctly welcome to visit the bouse at anv convenient time , and would

Joon retired to be ^ i , after extinguishing the gas with which tbe public rooms in the house were lighted . Abont one o ' clock , however , as a man was pas-ing the road , his attention was attracted by seeing an unusual glare of light proceeding from the bar parlour windows .

Herbal Solution . —W « beg to call oorreader *' attention to a . n advertisement in our columns referring to a new and ve-ry valuable medicine called Dr . Stone ' s Tasteless CompoBnd Herbal Solution . We the more readily notice it as we are impressed with the truth of the statement thertin contained , namely that " herbal " medicines have been too much neg " - lected . There is no doubt but that with attention many other valaable vegetable remedies may be discovered . The judicious combination too of their various properties must be of immense advantage fur the rapid cure of diseases—it appears that Dr . Stone has po united them in his " Solution " as to rendtr
it a truly " universal ' medicine , not uron the " purgation " principle , but from the fact of its being tonic and alterative as well as aperient and either ot these according to the dose—it is tasteless too , , nnd thns altogether is the safest and best family medicine pver discovered —it must shortly supersede all the pills and other nostrums continually foisted on the public . —See Advertisement .

FATAL HEROISM OF A BROTHER . The town of Bridge water has be ? n put into consternation in consequence of the murder of a young man named MacCarthey . The prisoner Hay ward is about 18 or 19 years of age , and of a boyish look ; his countenance does not indicate anything ferocious but , on the contrary , it has a mild appearance . He ia the son of r gardener in this town . The unfortunate young MacCarthey , we hear , was a fine young man , very well behaved , and of quiet and peaceable habus , in tbe 20 thyear of his age . He is the son of an Irishman , who is a portrait painter , and has resided in the town some years . During the time of tbe inquest the Court was crowded to excess .
John MacCarthey the father of the deceased—I live in Hutchings's buildings , in North-street , Bridgewater . I am an artist by profession . About a quarter before eight I met Win . Hayward , the prisoner , in company -with two females , coming towards the draog-way leading to my house . Went into my house . Had not been there eight minutes before my daughter Elizabeth , came in , and acquainted her mother , deceased , and myself , that thd prisoner , had insulted and struck her with bis elbow in coming through the drang . Abont seven months back the prisoner insulted my daughter in a similar manner . I went out to demand an explanation . I found the prisoner leaning against the wall iu the drang .

time * ? " He made light of it ; I told him if eyer he insulted a child of mine again , I would hare him severely punished for it ; he said , " — yonr eyes , you —; I will cut yonr — guts out . " I replied , " ion scoundrel , you may thank God I have not a stick , or I would giveyoa a thrashing . " " Yon strike me , " said the prisoner , and " I willserve you out . " My son ( the deceased ) , who was by my side , interfered and said , WhiUt I am here you dur * t not pot a hand on my father . " The prisoner then went into the road , which was close by , and took off his coat , nnd said , " Come along yon —— , I have got plenty for the whole of yon ; " alluding to my son-in-law , James Banks , deceased , and myself . The p risoner made use i > f very abusive language , and challenged anyone
of us to fight . After this he pnton his coat nnd came on tbe pathway , making nseof very abusive language , too baa to mention * , he jostled ngainst the deceased . My son snid , " Father , I cannot bear this any longer j' ; he threw off his coat hastily ; I could not keep him back ; they closed in upon one another . This occupied about two or three minutes ; the assassin ran from him . My mn said h « had a sharp stone , and has been striking me with it about my abdomen and shoulder . I immediately ran and seized the prisoner by the hand , and it was covered with blood . The prisoner let something fall from hi » hand . My son walked a pace or two , staggered , and fell against the edge of the causeway . I then put my hand on my child ' s shoulder and found the blood oozing from
it . 1 said to the prisoner , " You villain , you have hUbbed my son . " The prisoner replied , Prove it if vou can . " The tmsouer was taken in charge . I then took up the deceased with the assistance of another person . When I got into the light I perceived my son had several wounds . I did not hear him speak afterwards . He lived about three hourn nnd a half after being stabbed . la the straggle there was sufficient light to distinguish persons . There had been some grudge between the prisoner and deceased , in consequence of the prisoner stealing a dog from him . I made tbe deceased n
present of the dog ; through the pr isoner's mother interceding we did not prosecute him . The prisoner alluded to thi > affair when I demanded an explanation about his rubbing against my daughter in the drang . I said " You should not rub yourself against any of my chiUren . " The prisoner replied , " What , do you mean to say I robbed you ? " I Raid rub . The prisoner said , " I suppose you mean about the dog ; I will settle that with the whole of you . " I never struck the prisoner , so help me , tted . Other witnesses were examined , who corroborated the evideuce given by the father of the deceased .
James Bussell—I am gaoler . Between eight and nine o ' clock on Wednesday evening the prisoner was siven into my custody by Bond , the constable of this town . I observed ui » hands were covered with blood , with a d ^ ep pash on the fore finger of the left baud . 1 cautioned him repeatedly to be careful what he said ; it was a serious charge againBt him . He said— « I found MacCarth y was too strong for me , and I took out my knife and cut at him . I locked him up that night ; and next morning , about eight o ' clock , I told him that MacCarthy was dead , and asked him if he persisted in the same declaration repented last night . He repented the same . verbatim , with this addition , that he cut his finger in cloning the knife . Thf jury , after hearing the evidence read by the Coroner , returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder " against the prisoner William Hayward . He was committed to gaol , to lake his trial at the next Taunton Assizes . —Sun , Monday .

m STATE OF THB COUNTRY . Worfbro' Common .- The Northern Union met in their room ou Monday , tbe 21 st inst ., John Wood in the chair . The following resolutions were agreed to : — 1 . That this Union having read the Corn Law humbug meeting held at Leeds ia < t week , declare that if the report in the Mercury ann Times be true , that all the pour deluded slaves who held up their hands in favour of the Cora Law scheme of Bainss and Co ., ou ^ ht in future to wear asyes ears with the following inscription on their foreheads— " Baines ' s asHes , "—and they cannot help
noticing the deepness of the fellow Plint , in utrlviug to make it appear that Mr . O'Connor advocated one thing in the House of Commons and another tp the people , which tbe said Plint knew to be as false as Plint himself pretended to be cunning . There wai another fellow unworthy of notice , but , at all event ? , he was one of the specious crew , —the fellow ' s name is Cummins , and enough of him will be known when we a ^ e rt that he is the identical Cummins who actually eulogised that swindling mendicant—that tramping traitor , Acland , of Poor Law notoriety .
2 . That we having taken in the True Scotsman , upon Mr . O'Cornor ' s advice , we hereby give it up , upon our own experience , and intend supplying it * place with the Northern Liberator . 3 . That we return Mr . Douglas of the Birmingham Journal , our hearty contempt for his low-bred abuse of Mr . O'Conuor in his paper of . this week and we are very sorry that Mr . Attwood should be surrounded by fellows of the Douglas stamp . 4 th , That in the opinion of thin Union Duncan , Brewgter and Co . are cool and deliberate traitors , and ought to be spurned by every honest man , and that it is dangerous in tbe extreme to suffer Duncan to go to the National Assembly ,
5 th . That we are * orry in the extreme that Mt . O'Connor should suffer so much bodily injury by his extraordinary exertions in the People ' s cause , and we hope he will take a little more ease , as the loss of Mr . O'Connor could never be supplied by any other man . 6 th . That the very best thanks of this Union are pre-eminently due , and are hereby given , to Mr . Thomas Lingard , the respectable agent of the Northern Star , Operative , and Champion Newspapers , for that mild integrity in the good cause that has always actuated his youthful mind , but more particularly for the valuable present he has made thio society .

mencement of the proceeding * , so great was the excitement , that crowdn' Were waiting in tbe street with the intention of rushing into the building a * soon as tbe doors v < ere thrown open , and in a abort time every corner was crammed fa suffocation , with a dense mass of people , some persons even found their way into the pulpit , having no other place into which they could by Any means tbrart their heads .

w y a full report : I shall only say , ftoat a handsome sum of money was collected for Mr . Stephens , and the following resolutions were passed with acclamation :- -That this meeting views with feelings of sorrow and aiartn the conduct of the '' base , bloody , and brutal Whigs , " in arresting that noble-minded Patriot , the Rer . J . R . Stephens , and cannot but consider it a Whig scheme , intended to excite the people to acts of violence and outrage , thereby furnishing a pretext for suspending the Habeas Corpus Act , so that they may be enabled *?! a , f -n , ? im P ri 8 On wif n impunity , any , or all of the Radical leaders as might best suit their purpose , and by that means * put a stop to the present agitation in favour of the People ' s Charter . That » his meeting has the greatest respect for , and unbounded confidence in , the Rev . J . R . Stephens , and solemnlled itself to

HAtF-AcitE .-T—The cowardly means which the present Government is resorting to , and the dastardly tools it employ * to work out its nefarious purposes to prop its tottering power a littte longer , m . exciting the scorn and contempt of every honest man in England , Scotland , and Ireland . Whal can equal thf weakness of meni who are obliged to resort to the pitiful means which have been lately employed to Mileiice the Rev . Mr . Stephen * ? The evidence produced against him is an insalt to English jurisprudence , and the excessive bail required from him is , we are of opinion , totally at variance with the liberty of the subject , and contrary to the Bill of Rights . Alter this , should the Aristocracy fail in their present attempts to silence th « real frienda of
the people , they will undoubtedl y suspend the Habeas Corpus Act , and incarcerate their victims without even the forms of law , perhaps enact over again the drama of 1819 , in order to carry into effect their infamous and unconstitutional Poor Law Amendment Act . The levying of ship-money , and the tyranny ot the Star Chamber cost Charles IV his head ! Beware , Whig * and Tories ! the spir it of I ym and Hampdea have not yet left tbe breasts of hnglishmen !

Whei * one tradesman transfers his business t » another tradesman—/ w a consideration—tit * good fortune of tbe saccessor is always matter of pleasure to the predecessor . Those transfers most generally take place from one of two causes , either that a competency has Veen realized , or from a deficiency of capital . The latter we take to be the cause of thetransfer about to be made of our lives , liberties , and property , by the Wbigs to the Tories . A dissolution .
of Parftament is now very currently and very confidently spoken of in the-best informed circles : should that event tak » place , it wfll not be from any hope or expectation of adding strength to oaf present rulera , even with the- " Corn Liw * Bepeal" cry at their back . It will be done as the most modest way of letting the Tories into office . Confidence , which is the only certain , Ministerial capital has been withdrawn irom the Whig . party , and unwilling themselves to-, chastise the people for their defection—which was long
provoked—thejhope that another season of Tory dominion and ferocity may make them once more comparatively acceptable to the pressure from without . Never was there a more fallacious- notion , however , for the dwmis 8 al of the present Government , will be the annihilation of the Whig party . We have over and over again told the people ,. that the existence of three political parties in . a state was incompatible with all political rule , and at variance with all political precedent . During the recent period of political warfare , the Radicals have only been recognised as a party
in consequence of their physical strength : their artificial acquirements , natural endowments , and moral attainments ,-wei ghed not as a feather ia the scale . These are qualifications spoken of an necessary for the possession of political honor , but they are sot qualifications to which it would ever be surrendered . If this dissolution should take place ,, and if tbe Repeal of the Corn Laws should be the test of strength , the tone taken by the Time * newspaper fully assures us , that the Tories , tired of skirmishing upon matters of etiquette , form , and . personal
feeling , are now , an generals made wise by experience , determined not to thrown away a chance , or to allow tbe enemy to surprise then * upoa a question , which , if ju libiously managed , might give the Wbiga a renewal of their lease for an indefinite period . Some startling Qoyelty must be hit upon by the Whi g * la amuse the public mind , or some daring violation of the constitution , must be manufactured by the Toriea to subdue public opinion . Many leading Whi g * are as much averse to a repeal of the Corn Laws as the Tories are , and the preservation of those laws by
a Tory Goverment would be to the Whigs ample compensation for loss of political honour . In fact let them talk as they may , to all owners of estates or refldues ef estates , the corn lawa are meat , drink , and clothes . They are the last remaining link between Landlord and Tenant , and between Landlord , Fundlord , and Churchlord , aud therefore to the Corn Laws they will pertinaciously cling . A ' jwe mean to devote many article ? to a consideration of the different branches of the complicated question of the Corn Laws , which in fact involves our whole monetary , commercial , agricul-.
tural , manufacturing , trading , and other interest * , we shall here confine ourselves to the objects which , Lord Melbourne could have in dissolving Parliament at the present moment . From the days of Buckingham and Bute no Minister ever held the royal will in more servile bondage j and therefore should he forego " bed and boatd , " royal favour , royal patronage , and royal smile , it will only be from a conviction that he cannot stem popular anger nor meet the nation ' s frown . If the two enfranchised political parties were alone to be
considered , Melbourne , the Crown , the Army , and the Tories , would hold successful combat against their opponent j but when the non-elective influence , whose power is denied--though yielded to whea once enraged—steps in , then does all form , regal , Ministerial ,, and Parliamentary , fade into insignificance . We come then to the conclusion , ^ that a dissolutionnow , wouldbe , in fact , a transfer of power from the Whigs to the ; TdVieV , ' 'in' order that the latter may try that experiment , in the way of coercion , which tbe Whi ^ s dare natviTehtufcfe upon . If
the Whigs dispute with tHe ^ VojIePof etn-acfeesssion of strength , our answer . Is . ' why in ^ &T ^ ' rtA p . rematurely to a new eleetio ' n ^ paa . to ; death , ri > f ^ tjie ' king , when the law gave'them ; the {' poweft to -retain Parliament until the ; registratrdri 17 of ; 1 & 6 * hadIwea matured r * And will th > sanje' ^ i ^ sl ' ^ ter ' a strict obedience to the command of Sir Robert Peel , "Register , Register , Register" —will they who dreaded to postpone the last etectionfor three months , for fear of meeting Tory arrangements a * regarded one year ' s registration—will they , we ask , ' tibw
Venture an election in the face of increased organization under the magic words of Sir Robert , and with a constituency augmented by another year ' s registration ? No ! the idea is preposterous . The Whigs are not as good tacticians as the Tories , as the result of single flections which have taken place since the last general election , fully prdve , Marylebone and others , for example . The manager , often successful in proving the forbearance of the lion , pat his head into the animal ' s mouth , whea hunger overcame training ; and although in 1837 ,
the clap-trap of the virtuous Queen and Reform acted as an opiate upon Public Opinion , yet have all those quack drogs ^ too long used--lost their charm and their effect , and now something more will be necessary as an electioneering clap-trap than the mere hollow and deceptive cry of Cora Laws—Corn Laws—Corn Laws . We were mainly instrumental last year in preventing a dissolutioa upon the question of the Ballot , and though , the fate of the immortal Hunt , who was sacrificed t » popular credulity , should await us , yet willvreby
night and by day , meet the shadow of justice , with . the substance of right , and Universal Suffrage shall he the never-ceasing echo to the voice of promise , which has never been U 3 ed but to deceive , and which has never been relied upon , that repentance has not speedily followed . If Parliament should be dissolved , the Delegate * will still Bit . Their tinst will not have expired , and directed as they will fee by the sound judgment of tbe millions , we shall be in possessionOf the means to unite-and direct public opinion agaiast all the machinations of united
factions . The power of either Whig or Tory mask perishy and for , ever upoa the next { . 'eneral elrcuon ; for , with Gad ' a blessing , the' Radicals , strong it * Jinmbere , virtuous in . principle , and determined ia purpose , shall be recognised us qualified to distribute what they produce , and to partake of that whictk they create . Nonnion , therefore , with any party . If we are not strong enough to beat botb » we cannot ¦ beat the weakest ; for , regardless < £ the » own- fate at the hand * of—to then *— * moderate foe , the strong would , come to their aid , to beat down the now hated ysopW . i Here we have discussed the only motive * which
could indoe © the present Government to . dissolve Parliament . In another article , we shall argue the question , as if Parliament should be dissolved with the view of testing the country upon Ue question of the Corn La we , far the purpose o . making tbeir repeal a Whig Ministerial measure . In doubt and uncertainty of Whig and Tory intentions , however , we say to our friends , be prepared , —stand » lone , and the day is our own . No surrender— Unwrsai Suffrage . ' That is the measure th ;» t will repeal all bad laws , and prove the truth of John of Greenfield ' s wi . se saying , that " AM . f stuff i't woorld wur made for all t ' fowk i ' t ' wooria . "
