      MEDICAL ADVICE . MESSRS . WILKINSON AND CO ., SURGEONS , No . 13 , Trafalgar-street , Leeds , and 34 , Prin c * Edward-street , Fox-street , Liverpool , HAVING devoted their Studies exclusively for many years to the successful treatment of the Venereal Disease , in all its various forms ; also , to the frightful consequences resulting from , that destructive practice , "Self Abuse , " may be Personally Consulted from Nine in the Morning till 'Jen at Night , and on Sundays till Two . ' Attendance every Thursday at No . 4 , Georgestreet , Bradford , ( from Ten till Five . ) In recent cases a perfect Cure is completed within , a Week , or no Charge made for Medicine after that period , and Country Patients , by making only onepersonal visit , will receive such Advice and Medicines that will enable them to obtain a permanent * nd effectual Cure , when all other means have failed . They hopethat the successful , easy , and expeditions mode they have adopted , of eradicating every symptom of a certain disease , without any material alteration in diet , or hindrance of business , and yet preserving the constitution in full vigour , and free from injury , will establish their claims for support . As this Disease is one which is likely to be contracted whenever exposure takes place , it is not like many other visitors , once in life , but , on the contrary , one infection may scarcely have been removed , when another may unfortunately be imbibed ; therefore , the practitioner requires real judgment in order to treat each particular case in such a manner S 3 not merely to remove the present attack , but to preserve the constitution- unimpaired , in case of a repetition at no distant period . The man of experience caa avail himself of the greatest improvements ia modern practice , by being able to distinguish between discharges of a specific and of a simple or mild nature , which can only be made by one in daily practice , after due consideration of all circum&tances . In the same manner at birth , appearances often take place in children , which call for a proper knowledge and acquaintance with the disease , in order to discriminate their real nature , and which may be the means of sowing domestic discord , unless managed b tke Surgeon with propriety and skill . Patients labouring under this disease , cannot be too oautious into whose hands they commit themselTes . The propriety of this remark is abundantly manifested , by the same party frequently passing the ordeal of several practitioners , before he is fortunate enough to obtain a perfect cure . The following are some of the many symptoms that distinguish this disease : —A general debility ; eruption on the Head , face , aud body ; ulcerated sore throats * scrotula , swellings iu the neck , nodes on the shin bones , cancers , fistula , pains in the head and limbs , which are frequently mistaken for rheumatism , etc . ceo . - Messrs . W . and Co . ' s invariable rule is to give a Card to each of their patients , as a guarantee for Care , which th « y pledge themselves to perform , or return the fee . _ For the accommodation of those who cannot conveniently consult Messrs .

      B _ tl 6 HTOK . —The following was omitted in oar last for want of room : —A public meeting of the Chartist electors and other ? of the Borough of Br ighton w * s held at the Artichoke Inn ; ftlr . John Good in the chair ; for the purpose of receiving Mr . Charles Brooker , ts the Chartist candidate for Brighton . Mr . Brooker delivered an address full of wrand argument , and feeling ly energetic , ine __ 2 ] ow __ g resolutions were then adopted * — lnat , in the opinion of this meeting , it is highly desirable , feat in the present election as many caadidates in the working man's interest should be obtained a 3 possible , and Charles Brooker , Esq ., by / his untiring « eal in the cause of the poor man merits offlr enure confidence ; and that we pledge ourselves to

      support the said gentleman in the contest for Brighton . * That this meeting earnestly call on all reallj independent electors to co-operate with the Chartist elector ' 3 committee on behalf of Mr . C . Brooker . " Mr . Brooker , in a printed address to the electors , says : — " As to my political principles—should I haTe the hononr , through yon , of a seat in the British Parliament , my design iB , respecting my Parliamentary procedure , to advocate—believing their adoption ¦ would tend in a very great degrae to the benefit of the nation and realm of Great Britain—tne . principles contained in that which is denominated the People ' s Charter ; namely , Universal Suffrage , Equal District Voting , no Property Qualification for

      Members , A _ n _ al Parliaments , Payment of Members , and Vote by Ballot . At the same time , I trust I should advocate the cause in the same manner , relative to every measure I considered would benefit the British nation . And , respecting Universal Suffrage , I consider it a sound maxim ; and ,. as to going to that point—that in proportion as yon extend the Suffrage yon give securivy to Property . And , as from the state this country is at present in , I cannot think that property in the nation ia altogether Bafe ; I do earnestly entreat all that possess property therein ;—be it much or little- ^ -closely , * nd for themselves , to think over , or investigate the soundness or onsonndaess of this maxim . "

      IffOTTRA-S . —Mr . Butter worth , from Manchester , lectured at the Chartist Meeting Room , Hollingworth , on Thursday , the 24 th instant , and entered at great length into a discussion of tse disturbances that was takmg place in this and other parts of the country , showing in a clear and lucid ___ ncer the interest the Whig and Tory factions had in keeping the working cla 3 s at variance with each other . He conclnded a very animated and spirited lecture by exhorting the working class to join heart and hand toge ' -her for the Charter , and no surrender .

      I . CNDON . — The Democrats here complain of haviigbeendupedbyBomepersonrepresenting himself as a Chartist in distress . Thej passed a resolution at their meeting , last Sunday evening , not in future to relieve parties under each circumstances , without first having satisfactory proof of the trnth of their statements ; and they recommend a like course to __ 1 other Chartist Associations . GAINSBOROUGH . —The corn crakes , after cackling here till nobody would listen to them any longer , rounded off the the period with a petition , ¦ which they procured to be Bigned by all the little bojs they could prevail upon , and all the pot-house tipplers whom a pennyworth of ale wonld purchase , * ad then put it forta as tne petition of " 800 of the most respectable tradesmen of the town of Gain 3 . borough . " A printed protest againEt this " enormous lie" has been issued , signed by a large number of chief merchants and tradesmen of the town .

      BTOCKPORT . —On Sunday evening , a numerously attended meeting was held in the Association Room , Ba __ ber " a Brow , Mr . John Wright was called to the chair , who , after miking a few remarks upon passing events , called upon Mr . Griffin to read the instructions giTen by Fe _ rg _ s O'Connor , Esq ., in the Star of last week , to be observed by the electors and nonelectors in behalf of Chartist candidates . Daring the leading of the letter ne was interrupted several times by the plaudits of the assembly , and at the conclusion they showed their approbation of the "writer , and the sentiments contained in the article , by cheers hearty , lead , sad long . Mr . Chappell was next called upon to address the meeting . He commenced by remarks upon the honesty and integrity of Mr . Biirstow , the Chartist

      candidate for this borough , and after passing an eulogium upon him , proving thai be was decidedly the best in the- field , hoped the working classes and the Chartist electors would do their duty in the coming week , in rendering him that rapport which his iBsiratow ' s ) conduct towards the -working classes had merited . ( Cneeri ) The speaker then went on to show -what he conoeiTed to be tie real cause of the poverty and misery every where abounding in Great Britain . Many supposed , said he , that it was ia consequence of there not being a sufficiency of employment , whilst others attributed it to the operation of the Corn Lxws ; another set of quack politicians said that it was brought about by over population ; aad a fourth party would say that the great evil thus the improvement in machinery

      __ ppl _ nti _ g manual labour . We _ , then , he would proceed to examine the above propositions , and see il possible whether the causs of distress Cr-ld be traced exclusively to either of them . He always contended , lor his part , since he knew anything at all about the public _ 5 _ irs of this mighty empire that the foundation , the root of the evil , was class legislation , and that a _ other evils of . which the workiog classes had to complain , emanated from and were the effects of , that monstrous , and all engrossing fertile acource of eorraption . ( Hear , hear . ) He ( Mr . C ) believed that so long aa the working classes remained in their present helpless condition—bo long as the capitalist had protection for bis capital through the medium of laws of his own TPtVing , and so long as he had the power to giasD and grind as

      jnuch as he could from the blood , bones , and sinews -of the labouring portion of the community— so l _ ng as It was in the power of a cotton lord or landlord to tell his hands that he was about to take two shillings ofi their wages on a Saturday night , and they ( the handsj having bo power to resist it—so long as the capitalists eould take five shillings from the working man-by reducing his * ages , and so long as the result would be il the same person only took one ounce of stinking cotton tram his employers , that he would be sent to prison foi » month , in a word , so long as the foundation of every ding valuable in society , namely , labour , was unprotected so long would the same effects continue more or less to show their foul and demoralising character throngh the length and breadth of the land . Misery

      « nd starvation was not enly the lot of the unemployed , bet there were , sorry wa 3 he to say , and ashamed the Government ought to be to give him cause for saying it—thousands , nay , tens of thousands , who had as much work as they eould possibly do—thousands there wer « likewise -who were actually overworked , so much so that their lives were no pleasure to them , having to be tied to one system of slavery aod drudgery from Monday morning till Saturday night , and in that same way from years end to years end , though they did ¦ work in that manner , yet they could not earn enough to supply the cravings of hanger , or cover their nakedness . He could go into districts -where there were aen who had nevtr bad a new suit of clothes during the whole period of their lives—families , out of whom

      there irsre three or four workers , -whose wages pni together would not amount to more than ten sailliagj per week ; therefore , tie misery , poverty , and distress of those people were not caused by the want of employment , but , oa the contrary , they were worked t » o Koch , and eat too little , and -wore too little : the real ciose was their not being half paid for what the ; did do ; so that it wa 3 starvation , slavery , and hunger When in work , and net much worse when out of work : so much , then , ' for "the fallacy of the Corn Law t& paai ..--, is stating , that ihe BtarratioH and < lis £ r _« as caaaea by ttis want of employment The second proposition npon which he intended to treat was , th « operation of the Com I a ws . Thousands upon thoa __ Bis were in the greatest distress imaginable in iht

      year U 19 , and complained of the Corn Laws , anri assisted ia the agitation of their repeal Bat what part did the manufacturers take at that time ? Did they take the working maa by the band and join 5 n tht « ry for a big loaf ? tXo . ) But most of tfieia called them disaffected and rebellious , and persecuted pooj Hunt , __ d massacred the people on the field of Peterloo . ( Hear , hear . ) " Oh ., " said they , " we can compete With the world . " But that , said Chappell , was i _ their days of prosperity—when they were building tb » ir stately mansions and splendid palaces ; that -sraa when they were erecting their large factories and filling them with machinery ; that was when they were adding bouse to house , and field to field ; that was when they could aitead the race-course and gambling bells ; that was when the cotton manufacturers of Cheshire and

      lAacasbire realised profits to the tone of £ 15 , 000 , 900 in ons year , the esnnd of free trade was never heard from the » oc ___ ef the muMhroom politicians who are bow shoBti&s so lustily against the Com Laws . Free trade , in tie way the Plague were advocating , was one of tbe greatest humbsgs that was ever brought before the public . Here the speaker contrasted the eipences of the governments of those countries , the national debts ( if any ] , the wages of the operatives , he , against which this country had to compete ; and since they had ths same opportunity to xunufacture , and ceuld work their mills by water , and s * v « tea pounds oat of every £ li 10 & ., that is , that the azne power which wosld cost £ 12 10 s . by _ te _ n in Bngliad , woold only cost £ 2 IBs , by water , oa the eoaHaemt , or in Germany , Austria , RasaU , or the United State of America , The opence . of foighte « -were lest ; aad the wage * of the

      out tta Scripture to the Tery letter—namely , " th « labourer is worthy of his hire . " And be that will not work should not eat ( Cheers . ) Mr . ChappeU said he thought a great many ot the free trade brawlers . would not fan in with that dootrine . The speak' then showed by figures , according to the authority of the repealers themselves , the Bmall amount of theiaanufactured goods that were exported to foreign countries when put in comparison with what was consumed at home , and asked whether it would not be more prudent for me free traders to encourage the home market by giving better wages to the labouring classes , aad enabling them to purchase and consume the goods . He ( the speaker ; said , the pr esent standard of what was consumed in this country was ne fair criterion to go by , and argued that if the people had better wages , nearly _ _____ .. ... _ « . « - * .

      double the quantity would be called for . ( Hear , hear . ) He then asked his hearers how many chintz dresses their wives bad had Bince they were married ? he wftnld be bound there were none in bis presence whose wives had worn even one since they were married , and they were the very goods which paid best the workman , the Government , and the shopkaeper . The gambling and speculating propensities of the cotton lords , and their competition with each ethej caused them to put more machinery into work than was required , and tie consequence was that they glutted beth the foreign market , threw thousand ! of people out of employment , and ruined the home market , ; hence it was when they saw the gulph into which they had fallen , that they raised the cry of repeal of Ihe Corn Laws . There were now power to the amount of one hundred million .

      These powers which lay dormant , which c « uld at any moment be brought into requisition , if there should be a greater demand for goeds . Then again machinery was being improved every week , both at home and abroad . Then who would Bay that if the cotton masters to-morrow were to have orders for all the goods they could make for the next month , that tb ey ^ would not use every effort to bring all the machinery they could into play , to save manual labour , and deprive the working classes of any benefit . Mr . Chappell then fully entered into the subject of the Repeal of the Corn Laws , snd exploded the fallacies which have been so impudently put forward by the exporting manufacturers . He was for the Repeal of the Com Laws when there was some guarantee for the working classes receiving the benefit of such repeal .

      At the present time , even admitting that the . tax upon each man was Sd . per week , which was as high as it could be , allowing each man to eat 2 s . worth per week , what benefit would the working classes receive if the masters took two shillings from their wages , as they had done a ahort time back ? ( Hear , hear . ) Ciieap bread meant cheap labour . Earl Fitzwilliam , Muntz , Yilliers , Greg , and others of the most respectable advocates of repeal , declared that the real objeet of repeal was to reduce wages to enable them to compete with foreigners . He contended , therefore , that the repeal of the Corn Laws would not be a panacea for the evils which afflict the working classes . Having expressed tiimsftU upon that part of bis subject , he would say a word or two in reference to those Maltnusian rascals who prate about our population . AU he bad to

      say about th&t , there was plenty of everything both to eat and to drink . for double the number yet in existence ; the warehouses and shops were full of clothingthe granaries were full of corn ; there are plenty of hats , shoes , coats , &c , only they were not come-at-able . ; and when there was any danger to be anticipated from over-population . If he could rule , be would send those I -who had fed themselves fat out of other people ' s eftin-; ings to the bastiies . He would send , all those who were ; too lazy to work there ; and those who had robbed the I people of their land and prevented it from being culti-I vated for the sustenance and comfort of God ' s sons and ; daughters , for whom it was sent . He would likewise J tend all the advocates of the Malthusian doctrine and i let them taste the sweets of a bastile , by having their ! food weighed to them—by being shut op and installed

      I like felons—by being pirted from their wives , —and i when they had been there a considerable time he would '< go to them and ask them whether they liked the sysi tem ? He would be bound , their araal would be a little I cooled ; they would be of a different opinion , and their i language would be , " Let all the land be properly cul' tivated ; let all the appliances possible be put in full i force ; let there be » proper and equitable distribution i ot wealth ; let all means be tried to produce enough of food and clothing , and let it b « fairly and justly dealt \ out" And then if they found there was not enough for i every human being in existence , then , and not till then , j would it be time to think about bastiies , or disturb j their brains about over-pepulation . ( Hear , hear . ) -Then there was his last proposition—namely , machinery , i Some Eaid that machinery was one of the greatest

      ' < curses ; while others , who did not extend their view so j far , said it was the only eviL As it was at the present applied , instead of its being a benefit to the working classes , he would rank it as one of their greatest enemies ; | but , under a proper system ef society , it might ' , be turned to a blessing . Oa that point , he ¦ trusted he need not say much among a manufacturing ' audience . Machinery was supplanting manual labonr ' and sending the people into the streets to starvs , banish-| ing thousands to seek refuge in a distant country , re-; ducing the wages of the operatives , who are employed , : consequently bringing misery and starvation to thous" ands of families , taking or rather preventing the money , from coming to the sbopkeepers ' till , and in proportion ; as trade demand and exports increase in the same ratio , ¦ have the wages of the operatives decreased ? It bad

      ; injured cottage property , and hesides doing many other j things alike injurious to the nation . It bad put it out of the power of the labouring classes to purchase tax-; able artielBS ; and it liad caused the Chancellor of the I Exchequer , to find that th « re was a screw loose . He : had touched upon the four points which many say was j the cause of the distress prevailing in Great Britain ; | And , he thought , he need not take up much time to j prove that they were only effects which sprung from i class legislation . The argument lay in a nut shelL | There is as plenty of food and clothing , and work t » o , if every one did his share ; but in the present strange I anomaly of things many were worktd nearly to death , . while others were wholly idle , and it would do them ; more good than the physician ! were they compelled to work .

      TO THE UNREPRESENTED , AND THE ELECTORS OF THE WEST-RIDING OF THE COUNTY OF YORK . p ENTLEMEN , —I am called upon by the unani-IX mous voice of a vast portion of your body , to offer myself a ? a Candidate to represent your Interests in Parliament at the approaching election . I had not anticipated that you would confer upon so humble an individual as myself so high a honour . I had hoped that this preference would have fallen to the lot of one of those Gentlemen , who , possessing qualities so superior to my own , are willing to serve you . But as you have thought fit to place mo in this proud position , you may fully rely upon the exercise of my best exertioas , if elected , to regenerate our sinking , our falling country .

      Gentlemen , your choice has given the lie direct to the falsehoods propagated by the Times and Mercury , the two Whig organs of Leeds—namely , ** that you had discarded me for the part I took in the late Election at Nottingham . " It has proved that I still live in your confidence ; that you have not changed your principles , as has been charged upon you by those calumniators who seem to regret exceedingly that you have thrown off the trammels of their party ; that you have commenced business on your own account ; that you have opened your eyes to thtir duplicity ; that you cannet forget the proaises made and broken during the period of their oppressions , and especially those duriDg the agiiation for " the Bill , the whole Bill , and nothing but the Bill , " that it was only a step , and that so soon as by your aid they got it they would go on to

      the completion of reform , and to the consummation of Universal Suffrage . How did they redeem their pledge 1 Why , so soon as they obtained their pet measure , they turned round upon you and declared that reform had gone far enough ; charged you with being in poverty and rags—said that yoa had not a Snilhng or your own : that you were never satisfied ; tha , t the Reform Bill was a "final" measure , and that you would rob those who had property . With a bold front they informed you that you were too ignorant , and consequently unfit , to possess the franchise . You were wise enongh and prudent enough while lifting the WhiftB into power ; but as goon as they were up , they kicked the ladder down , and there below you must remain , until you erect a ladder for yourselves and apply it to your own elevation .

      The same faction , by a new cry of " Cheap Bread , " and "Monopoly or no Monopoly , " intend again to delude and betray you into their Keshes , in order to proceed onward in lowering your condition still more , that they may compel you to continue to compete with foreigners , who , by comparison , are untaxed , while we ara taxed to an unparalleled degree . They have unhesitatingly declared that their sole aim and objects are to lower the price of our goods , which can be done by no other means than lowering wages . A leading Member of the body , in his . report of wages en the Continent , states that at Bonn , on the Rhine , the wages are only fourpence halfpenny for twelve hours' labour ; ana before we can successfully compete with them , wages in thiB country mnst be much lower ; because onehalf has to go in taxes : and when they can make no profit by your labour they may give you a few days or a few weeks grace in the bastile " before sending you to rest in yyur grave 3 .

      The Poor Liw Act was passed with the positive intention to compel the poor to live on a coarser kind of food . Continue the Whigs in office , and you will soon have none at all . And why this yell of " no monopoly" now ? You must be aware with how small ceremony the Whig Government dismissed the mighty delegation of the Corn Law League , who were treated wi ( h scorn and indignity by the very men whom they are now , spaniel like , raising such a tumult from the " Land ' s End to John O'Groata" to keep in office , And have they given any public pledge to repeal the Corn Law 3 ! Noue whatever . They do not intend it ; they are themselves landed proprietors , and areas much opposed tothe repeal as any of their

      more honest opponents . Their end and their aimi s to enforce the New Poor Law , the Rural Police , and the full measure of continental centralisation ; in fact , to uproot the last vestige of the small remnant of liberty remaining to u . Had they been honest in any beneficial declaration , they would have commenced the work of economy , retrenchment , reduction of monopolies , and the eradicating of every oppressive measure , when they took the reins of Government . Had they , instead of making punyreductionsoftaxeSjpartofwhichhad lately been imposed by themselves upon principles of the highest refinement , viz ., of taxing the taxes ; had they then

      commenced and carried out real retrenchment , when they were backed by large majorities , instead of making false professions when their "occupation ' s gone , " when they have sunk down to a minority and can effect nothing ;—in short , had they been virtuous and honest men , they would now , instead of being held in scorn , contempt , and derision by every benevolent and intelligent being ia the country , stand upon the proudest pinnacle of fame , enjoying tae prayers , the blessiDgs , and the gratitude of all , and would have been handed down in the pages of history as the greatest benefactors of the hi ] maa race .

      What a mockery it is now to tell us what they would do for us ! and how deplorable it is to find so many who endure so much from their misrule , from ignoranee and self-intereet , following and supporting the vile faction ! more especially as it isjiel f -evident that what it has promised would constitute an evil—aa injury instead of an advantage—to themselves . Those men ( the Whigs ) gave twenty millions to themselves aad others , as the price of our fellow-creatares—as a remuneration for the restoration to liberty of thoae human beingi , whom they had stolen from the coast ef Africa ; and this while tens of thousands of white slaves remained , and still remain , in a worse condition thau those black slaves who heve been emancipated .

      They have added Lvgely to the public bnrdenB during their period of o £ ? ce , and that , too , while we had all but perfect peace ; the almost only foreign skirmish being against the inoffensive Chinese . And for what ! To compel them to pay for that prohibited intoxicating article opium , which had been smuggled by our merchant into their ( tho Chinese ) country . Certainly , war tfpon such abhorrent pretensions never took place sij ? oe the creation of the world . While tensof tb . ousand 3 wereBtarvi' > g , the ) " granted < o the Queen Dowager one hundred thousand pounds

      a year , and two or three palaces to reside in , making the old-lady's intome above above £ 2000 a week . ThankH to , oar stars they were not permitted to gmto the Queen's husband more than £ 30 , 000 a-year ; they were resolved to giro him £ 50 , 000 . They paid within a short period , about £ 2000 to carry through the country an army of blue unconstitutional troops to irritate instead of conciliate the oppressed people , who were seeking their rights in a more legal and constitutional manner than they themselves agitated for place and power ; and for less grave offences than they themselves had committed , they imprisoned , tortured , and murdered the people's best friends . They gave £ 70 , 000 to build palaces for the Queen's and her husband ' s horses , a year , and two or three palace , to reside in , making

      £ 30 000 to educate a whole people , aad between £ 60 , 000 and £ 70 , 000 to support three Commissioners , with their minions , expressly for the purpose of eradicating every constitutional principle , in order to oppress , degrade , insult , and starve the unfortunate poor . Had their course been as rapid i and progressive onwards to right and ustice , as it has been backward to merciless cruelty , we should have been the happiest nation upon earth ; we should have been viemg with each other who should add most to the happiness of the whole , and every one might have lived under his own vise and fig-tree , none daring—none desiring to make him afraid . Instead of this , their accursed system of legislation has inspired only irritation ,

      party rancour , envy , malice , and over-reaching of one another ; and while the poor are in terror of the Baatilea and Rural Police , the rich are alarmed for an approaching crisis , in which life and property will be endangered , and which may result in revolution and anarchy . While our best artisan 9 are being engaged by thousands to remove to the Continent aad other countries , where they can produce goods much lower than nere ; while many thousands are leaving our shores on speculation , to find a home and a resting place for themselves and families , and are employed in many instances upon machines of our own manufacture which have been sent away by licenses granted by the Government ; —this Government have , on the very eve of a dissolution become advocates of , not a Repeal of the Corn Laws , but of a fixed duty on all corn imported ; while the League are for a total and immediate repeal . The consequence is that our trade and commerce are movine as rapidly from us into other

      countries , as they formerly moved from them to this country ; while the middle class who are rapidly sinking down to bankruptcy , seem as blind as beetles to tberealcause ; and like Bedlamites are pertinaciously workingout theirown destruction . They adhere to the greatest monopolists , and cry down with monopolies ! while to all discerning men it is quite evident that skimmiug the surface will only add to our misery . We must commence at the root , and make a perfect cloarance ; we must take the Crown Lands from the hands of private individuals , and appropriate them to their legitimate purpose . The Cburcn property , which , since the Eighth Harry dispossessed the Catholics of it , is , to all intents and purposes , public property , would , under any honest Government who advocated liberty of conscience , have been appropriated to public purposes , and all would then have worshipped in their own way unrestrained and untaxed , to support any other .

      Tho standing Army and Rural Police must be abolished in time of peace ; salaries , pensions , and places , must be economized . The debt contracted by the Whigs and the Tories combined , and mainly augmented by the same parties , to support the war of extermination in France , and miscalled the national debt , ( but which in reality is the debt of the Aristocracy—of those who pledged their property and their lives in support of the war ) , —this incubus must be removed , and we must prove our superior intelligence by lowering the amount of public expenditure below all other governments .

      Whenever this is effected , and not till then , can we have an advantageous free trade ; then may we safely call for a clear stage and no favour ; then with the essential accompaniment Universal Suffrage can we add to our own and to thehappiness of the world ! Much as the labourers of this country havebeen abused and calumniated they are more virtuous than any other class in the country , and unequalled in ingenuity and industry , by any people on the face of the globe ; and as Boon as justice is extended to thorn , they will rise in morals , possess comforts of which they have been debarred , and a new era will be commenced . Then let the faction which now governs be driven from power and we , are safe ; none other can carry out their treasonable plans—none else can carry into effect the continental system oiooercion and centralization . Put them again at the head of a majority , and the most perfect system of slavery ia established .

      Reciprocity is the great and fundamental principle of free trade ; henco , when it is established , the whole of the protective import duties must be abolished , as well on foreign manufactured goods as upon foreign grown corn ; and with our present burdens , may I ask what would be the consequence 1 I beg to give you a short list of a few of the many articles of manufactured commerce , and the duty which must be paid upon them on being imported . Wood turnery 30 per cent . ; tiles 60 do . ; pack thread 25 do . ; starch £ 9 1 © 3 . per cwt . ; snuff 6 s . per lb . ; crown glass , £ 8 6 s . 8 d . per cwt . ; blacking £ 3 12 s . 6 d . ; bricks £ 1 2 s . 6 J . per thousand ; sheet glass £ 10 per cwt . ; paper Sd . per pound ; calf and kid tanned skhw , 9 d . per pound ; clocks 25 percent . ; watches 25 per cent . ; worsted yarns 6 d . per pound ; baskets 20 per cent . ; women ' s boots and shoes 30 s . aud 36 s . per doz 3 n pairs ; men ' s shoes £ 2 143 . per

      dozen ; hats and bonnets of straw , from £ 3 3 s . to £ 6 6 s . per dozen ; hard soap £ 4 10 a . per cwt . ; iron bars 39 s , per ton ; straw plat , 17 a . per pound ; books 25 s . per cwt . Were these articles' and others to be allowed to be imported free , we should bo inundated with foreign goods , and the horns manufacturers and workmen driven to starvation . Now , many can . only see cheap bread , but they must also nave cheap imported goods , often ready to fit on to the body . The most splendid furniture , gilded frames , gloves , silks , ribbons , hardware , outlery , < feo ., are being imported daily with these heavy duties ; let them co me free and we are done . Women's gloves pay 4 s . and men ' s do . 5 s . per dozen pairs ; millboard , brown paper , and scaleboard pay £ 3 s 83 . per cwt . ; gold leaf , 33 . per hundred leaves ; and whited brown thread 18 s . per dozen pounds .

      Throw off these and we become importers instead of exporters , and cur workmen must seek shelter in foreign countries , or starve at home ; while those who are the most noisy brawlers for " no monopoly " would be . the first to suffer ; and unless they will take couqcil and go to the root at once they must be involved in ruin . Give every man a voice in the election of his representatives—establish universal right , Universal Suffrage—it has existed in this country ; we ask for nothing new—establish equal laws and equal rights —and - n ¦ nation will again flourish—our industrious population will speedily possess every means of comfort ; their love for their dear , their native land , will then return ; esteem and respect for one another , aud good will to all , will abound in every class—ia every heart—and replace animosity and

      rancorous feeling ; while party spirit will vanish from the land . We shall rise from the existing system of devouring one another , uot only to liyo who can , but to the good old plan of live and let live . Gentlemen , should I be returned to Parliament as your representative , my best exertions will be devoted to the great cause of universal redemption—to that line of action which , in my humble judgment , is best calculated to ensure the greatest passible happiness to all . I shall oppose any Government who does not extend the fullest protection to every human being within their dominions . I shall oppose , in every possible way , every attempt to establish monopoly in trade and legislation . My cause is the cause of the whole people . My only aim is universal good . I am , Gentlemen ,

      Your devoted friend and humble servant , L . PITKETHLY Huddersfield , June 22 , 1841 .

      TO THE ELECTORS AND NON-ELECTORS OF THE WEST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE . Fbib .-td 5 ' ahd Countrymen , HAVING been solicited by the delegates of the unrepresented people ( assembled from all parts of the Riding ) in Dewsbury , this day , to allow myself to be put in nomination as a candidate for the representation of the West Riding , I have deemed it my duty to at once comply , and in responding to the call made upon me , see the necessity and propriety of making known the principles in support of which I claim your suffrages . I appear before you as the humble advocate of

      of that great body of our countrymen excluded by the present legislative system from all participation in those rights and franchises held and exercised by the other classes of the community . I see around me the men of ray own order ( the working class ) creating ( under God ) all wealth yet enjoying none—earning that bread in the " sweat of their brow , " which they themselves do not eat , but which is devoured by the drones , the schemers , and plunderers of society . From personal connection , correspondence , and

      communication , I can speak to the universal spirit of discontent existing in the breasts of the labouring many . I know that disaffection toward all existing institutions pervades tke mass of the working classes . I know that they regard with scorn and contempt the miserably delusive measures of Reform lately propounded to the country by the present Advisers of the Sovereign . What will the proposed trifling reduction per pound in the price of Sugar ; the proposed alteration ( for the worse ) in the Duties on Timber ; the proposed alteratioa in the Cora Laws , intended

For the tens of thousands of the destitute of England , Scotland , and Ireland willing to earn by labour their subsistence , bat unable to nnd it ? A change is required , not to keep one faction in and another faction out ; but a change that will socially benefit the mighty mass—that shall guarantee to him who toils the fruits of his labour . How is such change to beeffeotedl Will titled Aristocrats or wealthy Commoners do that for you which would ameliorate their class-usurpation 1 Not they indeed . How then is such change to be ^^^ y ^^^^ t ^^^^^' A ^

      brought about 1 By the destruction of olass-legis-Jation and the representation of the oppressed wealthproducers . , , Seeing , in the present system of legislation , the cause of tho political debasement and social wretchedness of the working class , I seek for the enfranchisement ( politically and socially ) of that olass by the recognition and adoption of the principles of the People ' s Charter . I demand the extension of the Suffrage to every male that shall have attained the years of manhood . First , on the ground of right , believing that " all men are born free and equal . " Second , on the ground of protection , that labour may legislate for labour , and that the rich , through olass made laws , may no longer grind the faces of the

      poor . Opposed in principle to secret voting , I would nevertheless give my support to the Ballot as a means of protection to the weak against the tyranny of the strong . Annual or Sessional Parliaments I would most cordially sapport . A more equal division of Electoral Districts is absolutely neoessary to avoid the gross anomalies of the present system . The Property Qualification at present required on the part of Eaglish and Irish Representatives is a gross insalt to every principle of justice , the people ' s approval should be the only qualification of the legislator . Each Representativeshould receive wages for attendance , that he may be truly the servant of the people , they ( the people ) having the power to dismiss him from their service when failing to fulfil the duties of his mission .

      Only when the people are represented will legislative measures be adopted for the good of all . But , in the meantime , it is perhaps necessary that I should state briefly my sentiments upon certain great questions connected with the welfare of our common country . I am sternly opposed to the New Poor Law , both in principle and detail , aud will seek its immediate and total repeal . Regarding with horror and indignation the wholesale murder of the children of the poor in the

      manufacturing districts , the Ten Hours Bill shall have my hearty support ; and I will seek by every means in my power to promote a complete reform of factory labour . Seeing in local government the best palladium of national liberty , I am opposed to all schemes of " centralisation . " I am hostile to . any scheme of Rural Police , and consider that the complete controul ovei the police of towns and boroughs should be vested in the hands of the inhabitants . I am opposed to all restrictions upon knowledge , and will seek the repeal of all laws and taxes fettering the press .

      The advocate of religious as well as civil liberty , I contend against the existence of a state church , or compulsory exactions for the support of any sect or creed . I will support a total repeal of the Corn Laws accompanied by such a reduction of taxation as will allow the British farmer to compete with the foreign corn grower ; and give to the manufacturing population , the benefit of such repeal without inflicting injury upon tho agricultural classes . I am for the repeal of all " monopolies" by the repeal of the " monopoly" of legislation . With respect to Ireland , I am decidedly in favour of a Repeal of the Legislative Union , believing tfeat it would be for the interest and welfare of both countries that Ireland should constitute aud legislate for herself . C * for herself . C "

      If elected as your Representative , I Bhall use every exertion to procure the liberation and restoration of all those suffering in prison or in exile for their advocacy of tho rights of man . Electors , —I have briefly but explicitly stated my principles—the grounds upon which I hope for your Suffrages ; in you is reposed a weighty trust , see that you exorcise that trust for the good of all . We are oa the eve of a change , which no earthly power can avert , it is for you to say how that change shall 1 > e effected . W 3 are on the very threshold of " Revolution , " it is for you to decide whether that" Revolution ' shall be peaceably brought about with your assistance , or whether the disfranchised many shall be compelled to right themselves in spite of your opposition—in the latter case the consequences

      are frightful to contemplate . Believe me , mere brute force cannot much longer stifle the voice of tho oppressed and the enslaved . Non- Electors , —The principles set forth in this address are no new principles adopted for the occasion ; for years I have struggled for their triumph ; my first services in your cause entitle me to look for that support of which I feel confident . Friends and Countrymen , —Now is the time to assert your claim to the suffrage ; long disfranchised —long enslaved , cease to be the willing serfs of faction . Attend in your thousands and tens of thousands , on the day of nomination , and once , and for ever , set aside the odious and wicked distinction of the " privileged few , "aud tho "subject many . " Demand your rights , and practically assert your demand . I am , Your devoted Friend and Servant , GEORGE JULIAN HARNEY . Dewsbury , June 20 , 1841 .
