Lovett , Collins , and Co . attend the great delegate meeting , held in Manchester , in June , l 8- * 0 , when invited , and then and there bring forward their plan of national organization , instead of waiting until the present time , and now endeavour , by such conduct , to sow disunion and division in the ranks and amongst the leaders of the people . " 4 . " That we do beieby protest against the appointment of John Collins to sit in the Political Prisoners and Charter Convention , he not being a member of the National Charter Association , " 5 .

      circular here , wo assembled the committee and members of our Association , and made known its purport and contents . The discussion of the m « rits and supposed designs of the new movement was very brief . A motion was made and passed , without one dissentient voice , that the circular should be forthwith returned , without signature , and at the same time conveying our disapprobation of the proceedings of this new junta of wiseacres . We warned them of the responsibility of sowing the sosda of disunion and discord in the Chartist ranks , and pointed them to the situation of the Whig Government , who , by succumbing and endeavouring by

      their crooked policy , to conciliate and win over tbe Tories , their enomies , had brought themselves to the point of'destruction . Wo told them to beware , lest they should be caught in the same trap . We assured the leaders of this dishonourable and mischievous movement , that we were more admirers of sound principle than personal idolatry ; and of honesty more than ambition and self-conceit . We hope this untoward circumstance will be the means of making the Chartist leaders more cautious , zealous , and consistent , and not give the enemies « f the good cause , occasions for rejoicing and exultation at our disunion , and splitting into sections . — Correspondent .

      Weekly Meeting . —At the weekly meeting of the Boot and Shoemaker ' s Chartist Association , Newcastle-upon-Tyne , having taken into our serious consideration a proposed plan of movement to supersede the National Charter Association , by Lovett , Collins , and Co ., we cannot but express our abhorrent detestation of haying any connection with them , O'Connell , or his clique , notwithstanding the value of libraries , public halls , &c , laid down in their plan , which might be appendages to the promotion of tho Charter ; we nevertheless consider the danger of establishing Household Suffrage Associations to be most base and impolitic , and thereby express our unbounded confidence in the persons enumerated by Mr . O'Connor in his late letter .

      HANLEY AND SHELTON ( STAFFORDSHIRE Potteries ) . —Dr . M-Douall arrived here on Tuesday , tbe Oth of April , and delivered two lectures in the large room belonging to the Saracen ' s Head Inn , Shelton , to a crowded and attentive audience . The room is calculated to hold 600 people and upwards , and was crowded to overflowing . Tbe effect of these lectures has caused our principles to rise iu public estimation . In truth , the principles of Chartism have been sown here , so as to be out of the power of tyranny aad corruption , ever to trample them under foot ; tbe same effect has been made id Stoke and Fenton , and numbers added to our ranks—Dr .

Lovett , Collins ,

      and Co . is nothing but a Whig scheme to Sow disunion in the Chartist ranks , and to get rid of the dungeonproved patriotic O'Connor , and to set up that apostate , Daniel O'Connell , the betrayer of the factory children , in bis stead ; and we pledge ourselves to stand by the eighty-seven persona named in O'Connor ' s letter so long as they advecate tne rights of the millions , come weal come woe .

" " That this meeting pledges itself to support the old list which our imprisoned patriot , O'Connor , has made oat , in preference to those

      constituting the new list" " That we view with regret the names of some in Lovett ' a list , whom we have hitherto considered as honest men , and fervently hope that they -will yet return to the path of rectitude and honour , and shew by their future exertions in our behalf , their sincere contrition for the false step they have taten , feeling assured that tko nation will again recelw them with its wonted confidence .

      NORTHAMPTON . — At a recent meeting , tho Chartists of this town adopted the following resolution : — " That this meeting views with sorrow the recent conduct of Lovett , Collins , and Co ., and at the same time we pledge ourselves to stand by the National Charter Association , and denounce any o&a , or body of men , attempting to mislead the psople from obtaining the People ' s Charter . " ZJSEDS . —Tbe cause of Chartism in Leeds is progressing more than ever . Every meeting of the Association witnesses fresh converts to ita ranks . A spirit of zeal seems to be spreading amongst its members ; they begin to see that new is tbe time to make converts to their principles , for circumstances are effecting what reason has long since thought was doubtful . Poverty and

      want are two great weapons ia « orapeUing men to think , and after that to act Men have begun to act What is the cause of the present distress ? Everywhere there appears to be a spirit of enquiry . The Council , in order to meet the signs of the times , have drawn up a plan for Lectures and Addresses , similar to the one they have in Manchester . Meetings in future will be held in rotation , weekly , at Upper Wortley , Lower Wortley , Armley , Hunslet , Woodhonse , and West Ward , when three friends , in rotation , from a list of fourteen , will attend , and deliver addresses . The Room in Cheapsids is to be opened every Monday night , when Other three Wends , will address the meeting . The Council h a ting adopted this plan , rely upon tbe mem-D 8 W zvF fbt ftttewttf , Dy > llK () CB £ QE * & t&eiF'CO&cerB * t& nHM

      and to Induce others who are not members to attend likewise . The Council Will persevere to the utmost in endeavouring to work out the plan with success . Let the members generally follow the example , and then Leeds will be what it ought to be , ihe strong-hold of Chartism . The meeting on Monday night commence : at eight o ' clock . At the weekly meeting on Monday night , a discussion took place upon the article in last Saturday ' s Star , headed ' Nottingham Election ; ' it was rather reluctantly taken up , but a nuny thought it wa « inconsistent with tbe principles of Chartism , and that it was the duty of all Chartists , if they found any thing which in their opinion was not in accordance with their principles , to speak out , for they believed that the Editor of the Star was more liberal than to

      take offence because they objected to an article of his writing . The following resolution was unanimously adopted after a warm discussion : —•• That this meeting having listened to the reading ot the article written by the Editor of the Star , headed ' Nottingham Election , ' considers it to be inconsistent with the principles of the Charter , and that we consider it to be hurtful to ihe feelings of the Chartists in general , in tbe brethren at Nottingham being called upon to support Mr . Walter , who endeavoured as much as lay in his power to sacrifice the lives of thoss noble patriots of our cause , Frost , Williams , and Jones ; we therefore cannot , as honest and consistent Chartists , countenance the recommendation of the Editor of the Slar , but would call upon all Chartists to remain neutral , and vote for neither of tbe factions . "

      W-7 OPHO 0 SE , Leeds . —At a meeting of the Wooiibouse Chartists , held lately , it was unanimously agreed : — "That we place implicit confidence in Feargus O'Connor , Esq , and his colleagues ; and further , that we never will countenance any man , or set of men , who wish to sow disunion in our ranks , or who have any connection with that arch-traitor , O'Connell . " DAISY HILL . —The Chartist cause is going on well here . Mr . Alderson gave a lecture here on the 21 st instant , on the rights of labour , which gave general satisfaction . At the close of the lecture , a vote of thanks was given to Mr . Alderson , for his able

      exposure of the tyranny of masters over their workmen . On Sjunday last , the Chartists met as usual at the Old Cot , when a spirited discussion took place on the merits or demerits of the new league , after which the following resolution was unanimously agreed upon : — " That this meeting is of opinion that the men who have signed the circular of Messrs . Lovett , Collins , and Co ., and leagued themselves With that apostate , and betrayer of tho factory children , Daniel O'Connell , are traitors to the cause of Chartism , and highly merit the cenBure of every honest Chartist ; and it further pledges itself to abide by the eighty-seven tried leaders , and oiirdisinterested champion , Feargus O'Counor , Esq ., and the Northern Slar . "

      MANCHESTER . —At Brown-street Chartist Room , on "Sunday evening , Mr . James Leech , South Lancashire Chartist Missionary , ' delivered a lecture . In the course of an able lecture , he expatiated upon the Corn Laws and Currency , in which he refuted the fallacies of the Repealers in a masterly style . He alluded also to the " new move ; '' aad said he knew a gentleman who resided a short distance ^ from him , "who was worth his forty thousand pounds , and who reads the Star as soon as be can get hold of it He had obtained the portraits of all those who bad been been given with the Stor , and amongst them of course was Mr . John Collins , which hung in the sitting room ; but when he had read Mr . Hill ' s exposure of the private document , he pulled down Collins ' 3 portrait , and out with his

      penknife . He then cut it across and threw it into the fire as a mark of disgust ( Cries of " Served it right" ) A gentleman rose whoso name w . e dare not mention , because of the tyranny of the capitalists , to move the following resolution : — " That this meeting looks upon the movement put forth by Lovett , Collins , and others , as a treacherous design against the liberties of the people of the United Kingdom ; and that we consider it calculated , if persisted in , aud that its original intention was , to break up the energies of the people and destroy the agitation for tfce Charter . That Universal Suffrage is the birthright of every nation ; therefore this meeting denounce tbe sophistry used in Lovett and Co . 's circular , and believe that for a paltry bribe the said parties have renounced just principles , in

      consequence of which they are not fit advisers of honest men . That this meeting wish to convey to Feargus O'Connor , Esq ., their entire confidence in the principlesadvocated by him , and their firm determination to abide by them , believing them bestcalculated to give universal justice to the people . They wish likewise to shew their utter detestation of all political renegades , under what banner soever they may appear . They wish also to tell Mr . O'Connor not to despiir , but remember the responses which have been so promptly given at various times throughout the country , viz .: the young patriots , the Leeds meeting , and the new Convention , &c , therefore , we are for the old plan , tbe old set , and no other . " The mover of the resolution said , that when they took into consideration the gigantic efforts and the immense sacrifices which Mr . O'Connor had made in the c&ubb

      of democracy , together with the undeviatmg consistency which he has shown in the advocacy of the people ' s cause , he thought it would be the basest ingratitude on the part of those for whom he had done and suffered so much , to sit tamely down , without declaring to the world , and to his enemies especially , that they place the most implicit confidence in him as a gentleman and a patriot ( Cheers . ) Mr . James Cartledge seconded the motion , in an able and appropriate speech , and the motion was enthusiastically carried . COHDWiWtfEKS AMD TAILORS , MEMBERS OP THE National Charter Association . —After the financial and other business had been gone through , it was

      unanimously resolvtd , 1 st , " That the thanks of this meeting are due and hereby given to Mr . Hill , editor of the Northern Star , for his prompt and able exposure of the ' Cocktail Gingers , 'and their new iuove . Also to our brother Chartists generally , throughout the country , for resisting the temptations held out to them in the manner they have done . And further , we pledge ourselves to have no connections with the new move , or any one connected with i % , being determined to have the Charter without-any humbug . " 2 nd , " That we have the greatest confidence in Feargus O'Connor , Eeq , and we pledge ourselves to stick to him like wax so long as he stands to his colours , of which we have not the least doubt . "

      BtJTTON-XH-ASHFIElD . —At a public meeting of tho Chartists of this place , especially warned to take into consideration O'Connor ' s letter in the Slar of last week , and the New Movement clique , which was numerously attended , the following resolutions were unanimously carried with acclamation : — "That we , the Chartists of Sntton , having learnt with regret that Messn . Collins , Lovett , and Co . have concocted a counter plan of organisation to that already iu operation ( which we believe is working well for the obtaining of the People ' s Charter , ) as laid down by the delegates of the people assembled in Manchester , and which we believe calculated to cause a split in the Chartist camp . From all we &tn learn , from everything connected with the New Movement , ( and in reference to the Big Beggarman , Dan , especially , ) we are led to conclude that that wa » their intention , and that such conduct at

      such a time , and in such a manner , from such men as Collins and Lovett , lays them open to the strongest suspicion that gold dust has been thrown into their eyes , and blinded them to the best Interests of the working millions of this sea-bound dungeon , for their own selfishness ; and that such conduct is highly censurafcW by every real lover of liberty . " " That this meetlmg fully approving of the plan laid down by the delegates assembled at Manchester , do pledge themselvfSi'to use every legal means in their power to put down any movement which is calculated to impede its progress ; and we do furthermore tender our thanks to Feargus O'Connor , Esq . and the Editor of tht Northern Star , for their uuparalleled exertions in the cause of democracy ; and , further , that we do place implicit confidence in Feargus O'Connor , Esq . as tbe unflinching advocate and defender of the working millions of Great Britain and Ireland .

The meeting was addressed by Messrs .

" H was moved and agreed to , that this resolution be sent to the- editors of the Northern Slar and Scottish Patriot newspapers , and that they be requested to insert the same in ntxt week ' s number .

      BRIGHTON , —On Wednesday week , a general meeting of the Chartists of Brighton was held at the Cap of Liberty , Mr . Giles in the chair . It was agreed — " That the lists of coanciJmen , as they hare appeared in the Northern Slur , be confirmed by this meeting . " Previous to putting the motion b « fore-the chair , Mr . Woodward wished to make a few observations . He commenced by saying , that as he was one who had attached his signature to the " Lovett and Collins" Document , " published in the Star , he would trouble them with a few words . Thia was the first time be had ever appeared before them with any degree of pain , for he felt he had excited Bome suspicion against himself on account of his name being attached to the address . On Thursday last , when he had been

      appointed for a second time as one of the forthcoming convention , he had indulged in some strong language to those persons who had blamed him for bo doing , because he had the greatest confidence in those persons who had sent the address to him , but he must confess , that on reading the Slur of Saturday last , and perceiving that the worst of traitors , Daniel O'Connell , was mixed up with it , he must own he felt ashamed of his name being attached to the list , and he must confess that the confidence he bad always felt in Mr . Lovett and the others , was considerably shaken . A short time would shew them who were the evil doers ; he could assure his fellow niuiubers he . felt vexed and humiliated that he had any thiDg to do with it ; and if he had lost any portion of

      the confidence they had reposed in him , he was quite willing to resign as a member of tbe Convention , as a councilman , or member of the association . He placed himself entirely , in their hands , to do as they pleased with him . Mr . Sandy next addressed them . He stated that ho was not satisfied with the Star , nor wfth the conduct of Mr . Lovett ; when Mr . Woodward brought him the address , he then stated he did not agree with many parts of it ; the same coarse ought to have been adopted with respect to this address as was done on the introduction among the people of the Charter . He had written to Mr . Lovett stating his objections , the answer to which he would r « ad to the meeting . [ Mr . Sandy then read the answer he had received . ] He condemned Mr . Lovett for the injustice

      he considered he had done him , in publishing his name as agreeing with the address , without his sanction . He should wait until the reply of the other parties , and if not more satisfactory , he should withdraw from ell associations ; but he would nbver cease striving to better tbe condition of bis fellow labourers by All the means in his power . Mr . Allen next rose . JJe never felt more hurt in his-life than when he neartf that Messrs . Woodward and Sandy had affixed tlHtfr signatures to this " new move" address . He had bad some private conversation with Mr . Woodward , and he had convinced Mm that he had done so in error , and he

      was glad to say that his confidence in Mr . Woodward was the same a ? heretofore . Toe Chairman Baid , for his part he felt perfectly satisfied with the explanation given by Mr . Woodward . Several speakers followed in the same course , Messrs . J . Page , Flaxroatay &c ., all perfectly satisfied by Mr . W . ' s explanattoa . The Chairman then put tbe resolution , which wad carried unanimously . It was then resolved that the meeting be adjourned until Monday evening , at the same place , for tbe purpose of adopting strong means to at once put asida the " new move , " for which purpose a general summons of the Chartists of Brighton was determined on , and which has been acted on .

      Public Meeting . —A public meeting to petition Parliament for the total abolition of Church Rates was held here on Thursday evening last , April 22 ud , the High Constable in the chair . The meeting was attended by an" overwhelming body of Chartists . A resolution condemnatory of Church Rates was proposed by the anti-church rate party , but previous to putting it , Messrs . Allen and Flowers , in very animated speeches , not only condemned Church Rates , but all other tyrannical impositions . The veteran told the meeting some nice tales about the nice pickings of the church party in the seizure of church lands , &a , which were formerly ii possession of the people , and , if it ¦ were so now , -neither Church Rates , Tithes , Poor Laws , nor any other iniquitous enactments , would be

      required to press on the people . Messrs . Allen and Flowers concluded soul stirring addresses , urging the workies who were present to stand firm to their Charter , and the plunderers would yet be made to disgorge their ill-gotten wealth . The resolution was then put and carried . A second resolution , to found petitions on , to both Houses of Parliament / was proposed and seconded ; after -which Mr . J . Good expressed his satisfaction in seeing such a numerous body of \ rorking men present ; he was happy to see that an amicable feeling was being manifested by the working and middle classes of Brighton . To the middle classes he could but say he sympathised with them for their Church Rate " martyr , " but he really should like to see the middle ciasses sympathise , assist , and support

      the political martyrs now suffering a lingering and cruel incarceration in the various gaols of England and Wales . Theirs were martyrs for vindicating the rights of conscience ; ours were martyrs for vindicating and demanding the ancient rights and liberties of their country . Mr . Good concluded his address by impressing « n the meeting the right of every man to tho Suffrage , as embodied in tbe Charter , and sat down amidst loud applause . Mr . Allen followed , and lashed the middle clasaes for their treachery to the workies , aud said he was determined never to petition again unless it were for Universal Suffrage , till they were fully represented in their " own House . " It was useless to petition against any one isolated enactment ; get the Charter and they would soon swamp the whole

      lot . ( Loud cheering . ) The motien was then put and carried unanimously . A resolution for the formation of a committee , to carry out the foregoing resolutions was propose ^ but previous to putting it , Messrs . Woodward and Flowers , whose names had . betn inserted in the list , requested that they might be withdrawn , as , being professors of Chartism , they could not think of joining any other movement except the " People ' s Charter . " Mr . A . referred to a charge that had been brought against them , " which was , that they had at various times been the tools of tbe contending factions . Now , they were determined to have the Charter—they bad nailed their " No Surrender" flag to the mast ; they were determined to stand by it , and ere long , b y -union and determination , the freedom ol their country wonld be achieved . Mr . Allen concluded a very able address , frequently interrupted by the loud plaudits of' the Chartists . The resolution was then agreed to . It was

      moved and carried unanimously , " That the petition be entrusted to Capt Pechell for presentation , and that Sir A . Dalrymple be requested to support H . " Mr . Allen here stated that the chief cause why the Chartists did not oppose the-requisitionists , or move any counter resolutien , was , that the High Constable had given all a chance to attend by convening the meeting in the evening , when the-working classes could attend . Hl » , and his brother Chartist ' s object had been achieved , namely , the dissemination of the priaciples of their Charter . If they tiad any inclination to have moved counter resolutions , with the phalanx of firm heart * before them , their efforts would have been crowned with a triumphant result , and he trusted that when the Chartists wanted that hall , ( to which they had contributed their share , ) the middle classes would throw no obstacle in their way , but shew them the tame feeling as tha Chartists had shown to them that evening . Several addresses were afterwards delivered by Messn

      Sandy , Woodward , Good , Allen , Flowers , 4 c , and the meeting broke up , giving three loud and hearty cheers for the Charter—for Frost , Williams , and Jones , and all the political victims , with one oheer mote .
