( FromtheBr i ghton Herald . ) » , At * he Magistrates ' Bench , on Tuesday , Major Allen drew the attention of the Assistant- Overseer to the meeting , of the Chartists , on the previous night , at the Brewers Arms . He understood , he said that a number of persona attended who were not in easy circumstances , and who , it was suspected , received paroehial relief . If this was the case * he thought inquiry oueht to be made by the Directors and Guardians , and the relief stopped ; for if such could afford to pay 3 d . pr 6 d . to attend such meetings , he considered they were not fit objects for charity . Now , we doubt "very much the propriety of a Magistrate making such remarks as these froiri the Bench . If they-were intended politically j they were bad ; if merely as a suggestion to the Directors and Guardians , nnnecessary . Nobodv will acciiRe hs of

      being friendly to the Chartists ; we have stood opposed to them when some of Major Allen ' s friends looked more kindly on them thas at present ; but we should never have thought of making such a remark as this we have drawn attention to . It is not long ago that the Chartists could procure the use of the Town Hall to hold their meetings in . Their principles have undergone no change since thenthey have only carried put -what they then avowedly professed . Aro they then to hold no meetings now ! We are sorry they were ever allowed to hold any in this town ; but haying been once countenancedhaving been recognized as a political party , it does seem hard now to tell them that they shall have no place of reunion , and that if they do meet , those who are not rich enough to be allowed to hold political opmionB , shall be deprived of their miserable pittance and left to starve on the wide world . We abhor Chartism , but we love Justice . :

      ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO GAIN ACCESS TO HER MAJESTY AT WINDSOR CASTLE .

      ( From the Observer . ) : ¦ -.. "Windsor , Saturday Evening , Nov . 30 . " Considerable alarm and excitement were created in ibis town last evehiEg in consequence of a report that a maaiac had gained access to the private apartments at the Castle ; but upon making inquiries we hare been enabled to gather the following particulBM-- : ; . _ ¦' . . : / _; : \ : ... - - V- r ^ "It appears that' about half-past tea yesterday evening a respectable-dressed man got over the high iron gates leading to the Castle ; opposite to the . Long Walk , where no sentries have hithertbc been placed . He then walked acroBsiheParfcto the grand en&anceto the Castle , where Smith , the " po « er ,: a trusty old servantof the establishmentwassUtioned

      , . Upon seeing Smith he thus accosted him : — ' I demand admittance into the Castle as the King of England ^ Smith , Beeing the sort of character he iad > deal with , replied , Very well , your Majesty ; but be pleased to wait till I get my hat . Theporter then retired within the lod ge , arid , puttiog on his hat . -very quietly introduced him within the Castle , and as promptly to the professional care of Mr . Russell , one of the inspectors of police on duty at the Castle . He was immediately searched , and there were found upon him various papers ^ £ 17 . 10 s . in gold andsilver , and a very Tamable gold watch . He was then taken down to the station-house , in Church-street , where he was placed under the care of Ifc Gillman , the superintendent , during the ¦¦¦ ¦" " ¦

      night . .. .- . -T . " This morning he was taken io the Castie : when the Hon . C . A . Murray , the Master of the Householdj requested the attendance of Mr . William Berridge , the Mayor of Windsor , who promptly obeyed the summons , and the exanunation of the prisoner was proceeded with . The followingfacts were elicited : —It appeared that the prisoner ' s name is John Stoekledge , and that he resides at . WMthy Green , Manchester , in which town he is a partner in an extensive wholesale establishment . He has been confined in two lunatic asylums , one at Livers pool and the other at Lancaster , from the hitter of which he has been but recently liberated . Hevas on a journey of buBinesB . which was the cause of his

      leaving Manchester for London . He arrived at Windsor yesterday afternoon about three o ' clock , and , as we understand , took np his temporary abode at the New Inn . He said , in reply to a question from the Mayor , that * He was like all other men who wanted wives : he was looking after one '— -evidently alluding to her Majesty . When asked how he managed to get into the Park at that late hour , he replied that 'He bribed the sentinel with a sovexeign to let Mm get over . ' This could not be , as no sentinel is stationed at this spot . He further stated that' He once before got . as far from Manchester , towards Windsor , as Leicester , but the elements were against him , . and so he returned home . *

      road leading from Wood-lane to Mapperley-plains , and on Tuesday , nearly sixty men , with large families , were set to work . It is melancholy to think of the unfortunate condition of these persons , possessed in the main of good characters , with wives destitute of the common necessaries of life ,, and . childreri crying for bread , having no work at their own calling , and therefore being compelled at this inclement season of the year , to turn from the delicate employment of working in silk frames at their own houses , to that of labouring with spade and barrow , upon the bleak hills of Mapperley , at the latter end of November , to obtain the mere necessaries of life !

      The state of trade in this town is deplorable . The applications from unemployed framework-knitters , and especially silk glove hands , have been bo numerous , that the Guardians haTe been compelled to find labour for those with families of three children and npwards . The question was , where should the men be set to work ! The meadows are too full of water to allow of the men being placed there . An idea was thrown out of an application to the Duke of Newcastle , to see whether his Grace would employ the men in making the tunnel from Derby-road into the Park ; but an arrangement of this kind could not be effected in a day , eyen if it ' - - . were-practicable ,- arid in the mean time the men would starve . It was th refore resolved to employ them , again upon the

      New-The men not belonging to any of the Nottingham parishes , who are thrown out of work / are in a most deplorable condition ; they haTe nothing before , them but starvation , . er becoming inmatea of the surrounding workhouses . Those also with small families are in a wretched state , and there is plenty for the hand of charity to accomplish . We understand our worthy chief magistrate has a list of 367 men not employed by the Board of Guardians , who , ¦ with their "wives and children , amount to more thai a thousand persons ; and they are literally starving . We call attention to the following letter from persons destitute of work in Hyson Green and Radfbrd : —

      To the Editors of the Nottingham Review . " Hyson Green , near Nottingham , . ; November 27 th , 1839 . \; "Sirs , —With feelings of regret and disappointment , do the men now out of employment in the county of Nottingham , find themselves deprived of the benefits of which the unemployed in the town are generally partakers ; and therefore , this day , they have come to the resolution , sooner than starve , of soliciting the aid of their neighbours and friends in the district of Hyson Green and Kadford ; and also , to request them to -withhold contributions fromthe Nottingham people , and rise and give help to those who have no other resource , except workhouse confinement . "Iremain , . " In the name of the unemployed of Hyson Green and . Badford ,

      . " Tourhumble servant , "JOHK PAtMEH . *; : . The scenes with which the streets of-Nottingham abound are truly heart-rending ; and the feelings of that man must be deadened , who does not sympathise with these poor fellows in their misery , and stretch out the hand of benevolence to mitigate their woe ,. The following resolutions , ; adopted at a public meeting of the unemployed framework-knitters , held on Tuesday last , shew that these men are grateful for what has already been done to relieve their wants!— . ¦ -, " 1 . That a Tote of thanks be given to Mr . Smith , for hia liberal donation of bread during the past week , to the distressed families of Ihis town .

      " 2 . That arote of thanks begiven to the Right Worshiprul the Mayor , for his very handsome present of bread aad potatoes , during the last week , and also for ttie 4 eep sympathy which he has manifested in behalf of the thousands out of employ . " r We are certain the thanks embodied in these resolutions are deserfedby the individuals mentioned , and i t is with much pleasure we announce that our Tespected ^ Chief Magistrate has munificently given another donation of two hundred atone of bread , and two hundred pecks of potatoes , to-be distribnted during the . ¦ week .--Nottingham Review .
