And every Thursday , at No . 4 , George Street , Bradford , HAVING devoted his studies for many years exclusively to the various diseases of the generative and nervous system , in the removal of those distressing debilities arising from a secret indulgence in a delusive and destructive habit , and to the successful treatment of r ' - - ' : ¦•¦ ¦ VENEREAL AND SYPHILITIC DISEASES Continues to be consulted from nine in the morning till ten at night , and on Sundays till two , —and country patients rp . ijnirin ^ hia osaiBtanco , by making only one personal visit , will receive such advice and medicines as will enable them to obtain a permanent and effectual cure , when all other means have failed . In recent cases of a certain disorder a perfect cure is completed in one week , or no charge made for medicine after that period , and in those cases where other practititioners have failed , a perseverance ia his plan , without restraint in diet , or hindrance from business , will ensure to the patient a permanent and radical cure . ; 5 It frequently happens that in moments of thonghtlessness a person imbibes a disease where suspicion is least likely to be excited ; this state of security leads to a want of caution which aggravates the nature of the complaint . But where immediate application is made , the corroding poison is checked in its infancy , smothered ere it takes root , and destroyed before its venom can effect a perceptible appearance in the system . —Where the disease has been allowed to exist and remain , the more cause have we to fear the undermining influence of this poison , and a mere removal of its external appearance is not to be depended upon ; a thorough care must be achieved to prevent a return of the disease , and leave the system free from all infection . A complete knowledge of the symptoms and treatment of these insidious and dangerous diseases , can only be acquired by those who are in daily practice , and have previously gone through a regular course of Medical Instruction ; for , unfortunately , there are hundreds- who annually fall victims to the ignorant use of Mercury and other dangerous remedies , administered by illiterate men , who ruin the constitution by suffering disease to get into the system , which being carried by the circulation of the blood into all parts of the body , the whole frame becomes tainted with venereal poison , and most unhappy consequences ensue , at one time affecting the skin , particularly the head and face , with eruptions and ulcers , closely resembling , and often treated as scurvy , at another period producing the most violent pains in the limbs and bones , which are frequently mistaken for rheumatism : ; thus the whole frame becomes debilitated and decayed , and a lingering death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings . , What a grief for a young person in the very prime of life , to be snatched out of time , and from all ( he enjoyments of life , by a disease always local at first , and which never proves fatal if properly treated , as all its fatal results are owing either to neglect or ignorance . ..

      * . GSAS 6 OW . —Important Public meeting . —On last Monday evening , & meeting of the citizens was called by bill to bear a report from tbeir delegates at the late convention , and to receive an account of the stewardship of their "worthy treasurer , Mr . George Boss , for the list year ; also that they mi ? ht adopt a petition to the House of Commons for the Charter , and elect directors for the future government of the Asso ciation . Mr . Brownlee was called to the chair , and after stating the objects of the meeting , istroducsd Messrs Moir and Prondfoot , our delegates , who gave ftl ? satisfaction to their constituents , in reference to each and all their debts , in the lite Convention . The unanimous thanks of the meeting "was carried by acclamation to the two gentlemen . The next business

      being the adoption of a petition , Mr . John Colqobonn moved , and Con'Murray seconded , " That the petition drawn tip by the English Executive be the petition of the inhabitants of Glasgow . " Mr . Robert Malcolm znoT 6 d and Mr . George Boss seconded , as an amendment , ' That this meeting adopt ths petition emanating from the Scottish Convention . " After a pretty lengthened debate , in which the following individuals took part , Messrs . Prondfood , M ' Miilin , Watson , Martin , and another gentleman , ¦ whosa name I did- not learn , the amendment and motion were put from the ehair , when the motion was almostunaniruously carried . The result "was received "with loud cheers . Mr . Ross then gave a full detail of all the income and expenditure of the Association for the lasi year , which showed that , wanting him , the Chsi ' . ists of Glasgow would be often pnt to great inconvenience . 1 need hardly say , that there was not a man present that did not , from

      bis heart , respond to a vote of thasks for the honest * nd faithful services of Mr . Rdsh . A committee was then appointed to look after the petition , and to take every favourable opportunity cf biTini ; it as numerously signed as possible . JTear to the conclusion ilr . Ross rose and said , that seeing his amendment was lost , and the National Petition now . adopted , he for one would go in with the majority , and do everything thai lay in his power to make that petition a bumper ; thu 3 setting an example of the pure spirit of democracy , "which it is to be hoped will be followed oat fey every Ch&riist In consequence of the lateness of the evening it was thought best to aijourn the meeting until Tuesday , the 15 th current , for the purpose of electing the members of the new directory . Let the men ef Glasgow be then at their post , that none may be put to the helm who are not fully in their confidence . A vote of THwttfcR to Mi . Brownlee , tke chairman , closed the business , and the meeting dissolved .

The meeting was held in Barns' Seminary , a room capable of holding more ^ a-n five hundred people , and was it& 3 ? ly crowded , great cumbers being obliged to go away "who eonld not gain admission . At eight o'clock , Mr . ' Joseph Wood , a working man , was called to the chair by acclamation , who , in very eloquent terms , opened the business of the meeting , by detailing the object for ¦ which it was convened , and concluded by calling upon Sir . Parkinson , of Bolion , to move the first resolution , which was— " That it is the opinion of this meeting

      that the agitation now going on in this country by tioss persons calling themselves Corn Liw Repealers , is an agitation based upon error , inasmuch as the Corn Law * are but a part of the evils , which have arisen from class legislation ; we , therefore , pledge ourselves to agitato fer nothing short of the principles contained in the People's Charter , namely , Universal Suffrage , Ytts by Ballot , Annual Parliaments , Equal Representation , No property Qualification , and payment of Members to serve in Parliament" Mr . Rankin , of Manchester , in a speech replete 'with argument exposed the fallacies of the Com Law humbug . He made some very ttringent remarks as to the capabilities of the land , the evils of machinery and the miseries of the people under the present

      vicious system . He concluded by seconding the resolntioiL Mr . P . H . Bropby , of Dublin , next addressed the metting on the evils of class legislation and the disunion cf the working classes . He concluded by moving the following resolution . " That it is the opinion of this meeting , that an association should be immediately formed in Halshawmoor , foanded upon the foregoing resolution , to aid our brethren throughout Great Britain anl Ireland , to obtain by legal and constitutional means , those rights which class legislation has so long withheld , and which it is onr opinion cannot be obtained , until the People ' s Charter becomes the law of the land . ' ilr . Pickering in a- short but effective speech , supported Mr . Peter M . Brophy ' s iiictit > n . The thanks ef the "meeting was given by acclamation to ilessrs . Barnes , for giving the use of their school to the people . A vote of thanks to the Chairman was moved by Mr . Parkinson , Thomas Barns ,

      Esq . rose to second it , and was leceived by the meeting " with deafening cheers ; he said with some little exception , he a ; ree £ with all that bad fallen from the speakers Who had addressed them that evening ; he was for fhe ¦ w hole of the principles contained in tbe People ' s Charter ; he was convinced that if there was to be exceptions to the giving of the Suffrage on account of the ignorance of the people , that that exception would extend , in a great measure , to the aristocracy and great numbers of those who now held the franchisa % . he congratulated the workingmen of Hallshaw Moor upon the manner they had condu-ited themselves that evening , and he felt confident that nothing short of _ the principles of the Charter could effectually ameliorate the condition of the whole peeple ; he concluded by seconding the vote of thanks to the Chairman . The meeting then separated , after giving three hearty cheers for _ th « People ' s Charter .

The speaker was particularly cautious not to mention any of the evil deeds of thB Whics throughout his speech . 2 Jt Thorn as Livesey seconded the resolution , whici on being put , very few hands were held up . the people calling loudly for a remedy for the evils Which had been itated to exist Mr . John Leach then

      rose to propose a remedy , not only for the Corn Laws but all other bad laws wbich disgraced the statute book . He entered into the question vt machinery and taxation , and proved to a majority of the meeting , that the mere repeal of tee Corn Liws would not be a ba ] m for their every wound , a 3 it is staled by the Lsagua , tsd moved tee following resolution to - the nieetinz : — " That while this metti 3 g consider the Ministerial Pian Of Peel on the Com Law question is an insult to th ^ people -, they are further of opinion there are other bad laws which ought immediately to be effaced from the statute book , and consider the only remedy , the enacting of the principles contained in the People ' s Charter , the law of this country . " Mr . Thomas Chad -sick , manufacturer , seconded the motion , which was carried ¦ unanimously . Three cheers wertr given for Feargus O'Connor and the Xortken Star , and the meeting broke up .

At twenty minutes to eight he made his entry to an excited audience , composed of men of all grades and opinions , not a few of whom were " noisy Chartists , " " demagogues , " " rebels , " " plunderers , " and " despicable factions , " some of the gentlemanly terms used by the mild and mealy-mouthed Doctor of Plymouth ' s " free trade ( but not language ; clique . He was asked if be would agree to discussion ? He said " Yt 3 . if to the question . " At it he went , and used many Chartist arguments , amid the cries of "He ' s a Chartist" &i

      HANXJBT , Staffordshire Potteries . —Mr . Jas . Daffey lectured here in the George and Dragon Room , on Thursday eTening last , to an attentive audience . ABERDEEN . —The Aberdeen Charter Union met last Monday night , Archibald M'Donald-in the chair , who delivered a short address on the state of parties , &c . Mr . James M'Pherson moved That a committee of seven persons be appointed to consider the plan of organization adopted by the Convention . Preparations were then made for the reception of O'Brien . It was agreed to have a fruit festival j admission 6 d . Several other matters came before them of little interest , and the meeting separated .

      FORFAR . —The One Movement . —On Monday , the otb , tin inhabitants of this place were convened to confide the adoption of a petition for the Charter , and to arrive at some ae cision rplative to the late local reports given in the Dundee Chronicle and the conduct of the reporter . Mr . Thomas Sy me , vicechairman , presided . The Secretary read at length both the National Petition and that of the Scottish Convt iition . Mr . D . Callender moved the adoption of the forraer , which Mr . J . Miller seconded . Some little altercation followed ; and on the Chairman inquiring if any moved for the Convention Petitioa , Mr . A . Yeomon did so , but could find no seconder , even when appeal was made from the chair ; and the National was carried without ene solitary hand in

      opposition . Mr . T . Davis congratulated the meeting on the sound policy of their choice , briefly commented upon the objections commonly ur ^ ed against the document of their approval , regretted anything and everything tending to promote division or partisanship in the Chartist movement . He c * red little , as an affair of policy , for the exient of matter contained in the Petition ; it would be satisfactory to him if five millions made the simple declaration of five monosyllables— " We are ot ' oue mind . " Still he could not but regard as a master stroke the introduction of so many and so great evils into a preamble , which , however disagreeable , could scarcely fail to greet the ears of Honourable Members . A minute of the Chartist Association directing

      reference of the second question being read , Mr . M'Quattie arose , and stated thar he ^ ould not ahow that , by the Cnartist pres 3 , our movement should be thrown in the back ground to give prominence to Corn Law repeal agitation , without notice . After the discussion in the East Kirk , where Mr . Davies rendered such good service , he could not but reprehend the conduct which bo meanly misrepresented the facts of ihe case . The numbers of the Chronicle containing notices of the affair not being at hand , Mj . Davies Eaid he would rather net have meddled with the matter at all , as it would appear to be personal in its na'ure ; he would , however , just state that the inhabitants of Forfar , after the meeting in ihe church , wonld be well able to judge of the desert

      of the Teport in question . He thought the Chartists did themselves credit by disavowing the statements put form in the Dundee Chronicle , many of ihe friends waited upon him , aud very pressingJy urged that he would draw up a report to be forwarded by the Secretary , with their instructions . Thai report was prepared , sent , and delivered to the acting editor , and the one complained of inserted . Let any one who was present read the report in tho Star of the following week , and decide on the consistency of the one or the other . The Secretary wrote for explanation ; the onus was thrown on the reporter ; and , at a glance , hastily , as must hare been the case , he wrote a temperate , but firm explanation , requesving it misht appear , and

      the notices set a * ide as personality . If it were so , who made it such ? Having permitted the one , the other was due . Why not give it upon its own merhs ? If the reporter acted unju .-tly , the manager did no less so . Tne shareholders in Forfar might come to what resolutions they please . Let them , however , consult the interest' of putting the Chronicle in their own pockets , having no other readers . Let not any one go away with the misrepresentation that 1 persuaded you to withdraw support . He did no such thiag . Tney nevertheless would have to see to it , that their cause is not injured at their own expence . Mr . Millet would suggest that the managers be requested to appoint their own reporter , bnt to change the present one .

      The last resolution of the Manchester delegates , which he would read , convinced him that Adam was bound neck and he ^ Is to the repeal agitationto the supplanting of Chartism ! Mr . M'Quattie then proposed , " Tnat the late reports of the Dundee Chronicle having given so much dissatisfaction , we denounce the reporter , and resolve , if he be continued in that capacity to withdraw our support from the paper . " The announcement that a meeting uf shareholders had determined to recommend the retention of Adam as reporter , occasioned the stringency of the proceedings . The above was unanimously passed . Mr , M'Quattie would also call upon the meeting to repudiate the personal attack upon Mr . Davies , who had received the usual

      couuteuance aud support ; and which be so truly deserved . Also passed without contradiction . A commiUee was appointed to prepare , and forward a report , which , however , though sent , has not appeared . Sir . Whittel's letter to ministers of the gospel having been introduced , the secretary was ordered to procure a quanti y . Enquiry being made if any intelifgence of a visit from Mr . O'Brien had arrived , it was replied to in the negative ; but was daily expected , letters having been sent both to Glasgow aud Dundee . We earnestly hope Mr . O'Brieu will favour U 3 at the earliest opportunity . The failure of the League Conference in the metropolis will invigorate Chartism in Forfar . The whole Bill and nothing less !

      AIiLOA . —The Plagub Black is the Face . —Tne anti-Corn Law Association ' of Alloa , held a public meeting , on the evening of the 8 ; b inst ., in the Tabernacle , Alexander Paton , Esq ., in the chair . Mr . Abram Duncan asked if he would be allowed to take part in the proceedings , being favourable to the abolition of the Corn Laws ; bnt as his plan for their abolition was different from theirs , though in confonnance with the opinions of nine-tenths of inofe at this meeting , he would , with the permission of ihe chairman at some subsequent stage of tho proceedings move his amendment . The Chairmau said ihat if Mr . Duncan was a member of the anti-Corn Law Association of Alloa he would , otherwise he could not be permitted to take any part in the

      business of the evening . Mr . Duncan then addressed the meeting at some length , by stating the working men of Alloa , wculd now see who were their real friends and sworn enemies ; they would now see the spirit and intentions of the manufacturers and clergy who were this night to address them ; there wa 3 among them a Charust priesi , and he had no hesitation in applyiDg to him words that could not be mistaken—that he was 5 . deceiver aud a trait or to his own professed principles : he , Mr . Duncan , would now retire from the meeting , in conformity with a rule he had laid down for himself in such cases . Knowing that the working men of Alloa would treat the hypocrites , who had denied him the right to take part in a public meeting

      affecting his mtere » t 3 according to their deserts . When Mr . Daccan retired , about three" hundred accompanied him , anxious to have a lecture from him 311 the Chartist Hall , when he delivered a lecture upon Corn Law repeal , showing its pernicious tendency without accompanying measures , which the Charter only could earry . It was then moved and seconded , * ' That as the majority in the Chartist Committee had of la * . e acted very supinely in the cause , and as some of them now openly had gone over to the Corn Law repeal party , a Committee be now elected , men of known principle and tried integrity , to act in unison with the other Associations in the district . " The five following were then nominated : —Messrs . James Douglas , David Thompson ,

      John Stewait , Andrew Harrower , and Peter Cowie , who were unanimously elected . Mr . Duncan then asked if the National Petition had been adopted in Alloa ? The answer was , No . This was a proof of the traitorous conduct of the Committee , Mr . Robert Snadden then asked Mr . Duncan which petition he meant ! Mr . Duncan said the petition of the English Executive , as he knew of no other National Petition . It was then agreed that a public meeting should be got up without delay for the adpp-: rf the National Petition . Mr . James Douglas , Chairman of the meeting , gave an address containing a great quantity of statistical information , oonctived in powerful language ,-which was well received by the meeting . After a vote of thanks to the

      Chairman , this important meeting broke up . We may add that when Mr . Duncan left the meeting of the anti-Corn Law Association , its Chairman congra . u-Uted them upon the benefit of the rule they had adopted to allow none to take any part in the proceedings but such as they could trust , when it was bawled out , " Can yon trust the traitor 1 " Several ineffectual attempts were made by one Tough , a Chartist preacher , by' the Rev . P . M'DouaL , a sort of a dim wee light of the Secession Church , aud another preacher named Andrew Nichol , who is well known here , to address the meeting , without success . The Petition was read , and from every corner of the house voices were crying " put it to the vote , pat it to the vote ; ye daurna put it to the rote ; try your strengti . " The Chairman declined , saying the Petition had been adopted by the Committee , and that was sufficient . The meeting became clamorous for

      the money they had paid at the door , bat some needy brother of the League had ran off . with it . The Chairman % nd his clerical friends , finding themselves baffled at every point , dissolved the meeting Tnere wa 3 then one unanimous shout for Mr . David Harruwer to address the meeting , ( one of tne delegates from this quarter to tbo Glasgow Convention . " To this the Chairman gave all the opposition' in bis power , but was compelled to give way . Mr . Harr- > wer then addressed them in a lengthened speech , lull of facts and statements bearing on the question before them , and ended with a challenge to any of tho Corn Law League , or clergy , to discuss tho question with him . The Chairman asked if aHy one « a > wiiliag to discuss the question with Mm , several voices crying out , " Just do it yoursal ' , Chairmau . " This he declined for reasons best known to himself . This terminated this rather remarkable meeting .

      SHUTFORD , near Banbuhy , Oxfordshire—We have had an association cf Chartists in this vi lage about eight months , and although our principles have been denounced in the church , and contentment is preached in the chapel they are fast gaining ground . Indeed the calumnies of one Kev . gentleman of the church establishment , were so exceedingly vile , that we thought it our duty not to let them pass unnoticed , we accordingly , through the medium of the Star , respectfully requested him to substantiate the assertions he bad made , offering , at the same time , to abandon our agitation if he would prove them to be

      correct However , to thi « very reasonable request he has not yet dared to reply , although the" ignorance " of the working classes might have promised him an eaay victory . So much for the Rev . gentleman ' s desire to rescue us from that hell he so unmercifully consigned us to . But the days of priestcraft are fast passing away , we have learned to think for ourselves . We hold weekly meetings , and have adopted a memorial to the Queen , praying for a free pardon for Frost , Williams , and Jonas .
