      1 EICES ! EEB . —Monday , June 19 th was a day ofjinnsnal excitement . For a series of years the ^ wandHorseieepersin Leicesterhave monopolizad the Freeman ' s Common , " a piece of land contain ing 120 acres , which ias been bequeathed by bene-¦ volent persons for i 3 ie use of ihe poor freemauand freemen ' s widows . In the month of April last , there-was a strong contest between the rich and poor ftfcemen , in the election of Deputies to manage the ^ Sam of the freemen for the next year . At the clOBe of thecontest there were a large majority in favour of the poor , who determined on breaking up theland , and dividing it out into Jots of 500 yards to each freeman and freeman's widow for gardens . ^ ° e jCowkeepers , on learning the determination of the Deputies , at once moved for an Injunction in

      the Court of Chancery to restrain the Depnties . An Injunction was gianted to stay the breaking up of the land i but the Vice Chancellor decided that the Deputies could mow the grass , and sell it , and distribute the proceeds amongst the freemen and freemen's widows . He also ordered the Cowkeepers to pay tiie cost of the injunction . In consequence of this victory over the monopolizers ,-fee poor paraded the streets of Leicester on Monday hist , with a brass band and numbers of banners bearing various devices . One was very conspicuous , having a representation of a horse and a cow with their ribs protruding through their skins and looking very wistful at each other j the cow saying tothe horse , I wish we were on the Freeman's Common again . " To which the horse was made to reply , "So do I . " The freemen walked

      m procession , with wands , Ac ^ and they were followed by three carriage load of freemen ' s widows . Before the above demonstration was brought to a close , another of a different character made its appearance in the streets . Several hundred men were Been , in procession , headed by a large placard , having upon it , " More aggressions of the glove manufactures to crush the working men . " This was followed by a black banner , having painted on it a white slave , with his clothes all tattered and torn into rags ; and he apparently in a dying state . It was inscribed with thB words , ** The white slave , or dying operative . " " Our rights , and nothing less . " The procession proceeded through tha streets in an orderly manner to the different clove

      manufactories , soliciting their owners to give the same rate of wages as agreed to in the month of May last , which was a reduction of nine per cent , on the wages of last year , Messrs . Bailey , Cook , Warner , Mills , Howe , Thorpe , Bichards , Preston , and Brampton , all agreed to give the price : but on soliciting the Messrs . Biggs , Mr . William , the Dresent Mayor ;—the concoctor of the " Midland Counties Charter f the great " Reformer of the Souse of Lords ; " die mighty agitator for a Repeal of the Corn Laws ; the supposed philanthropist ; ihe great teacher of equality ; the mail who , in . 1832 , harangued the people on the Reform Bill , and told them to prepare themselves to march to Birmingham ; yes , this man told the deputation

      he should hold no conference with them ; and if they broke the peace , by committing acts of vas raccy , or any thing else , he should punish them to the utmost rigour of the law ! " The deputation wanted to reason with him . He haughtily returned for answer , " yon have heard what I have said ; yon know what I mean ; you can go ? On this , the band played before his warehouse , and in his very teeth * , the Dead March . The reduction HE offers is about 25 per cent less than the hands received lost year ! Before the works of Messrs . Chamberlain and Kewton , who were quite as obstinate as the Biggs's , ( all Corn Law Repealers to procure " jpGH -wages for the workmen , ") the bandplayed the "Rogue ' s March . " After this each one dispersed to his home .

      Bradpobb Tub .. —The fair has passed over withont so many of those drunken displays , which characterised the Summer fair . The oldest inhabitant can not remember having seen so few drunken people , at such a period of festivity .

She is , we understand , in most spledid order for the voyage , and is likely te make a remarkable short passage , the weather being most propitions . Her passengers number between sixty and seventy , and the carries out a valuable cargo of fine goods . Railway Collision is the Summit Tunnel . — A frijjh-fal accident ocenrred ion Wednesday at noon in the centre of the Summit Tunnel !; the mail train runniHg into a luggage train . The mail train leaves Manchester at ten minutes before eleren o ' clock , a jl , and traveb at a great speed . No intimation had been given to the driver on entering the ( tunnel that a lnggage train was only just in advance , and the steam prevented him from" seeing

      the light at the end of the train . The consequence wasj that when about half way through the tunnel , it overtook , and dashed into thelaggagc train , smashing two or tbree carriages , but , providentially , not hurting an individual . Considerable delay occurred in the transit of the trains , the wreck of the broken carriages having to he removed from the line of rails ou which theaccident happened . While this was being dope the subsequent trains passed through on the south line . A stringent inquiry into the origin of thia disaster onght to be made ,: and the publie mind fully relieved from all apprehension of futnre accident in such a spot . A collision on the railway is bad enough anywhere ; but really frightful when it occurs in the bowels of the earth . Great blame attaches , either to the Company in not having a watchman at the mouth of the tunnel or to the watchman , if one is stationed there .

It was to consist of farmers on horseback , and others on foot ; and rumour magnified it to 10 , 000 or 12 , 000 men . These were for the most part operated upon by their fears ; 1 or notices , some verbal , some in

It consisted of I about 500 horsemen , and from 2 , 000 to 3 , 0 Q 0 on foot . They entered the town [ a ^ Water-street * gate , and went round Picton ' s Mdnumenfc , over the quay , and by the hall , where the magistrates wereassembl 6 d , but committed no outrage py the way . They then passed on to the workhouse , into which an entrance was forced , and the work of destruction commended . A few minutes after the procession passed the bridge , a troop of the 4 th Dragoons entered the ' town . What was doing at the ! workhouse was communicated to the magistrates j and one of them ! T .

      , Morns , Esq ., heading the military , rode off briskly to the workhouse ; and so unexpectedly did they come upon the mob who were within its large enclosure , that about 100 persons were captured by them .

      HOUSE OF COMMONS .-Tuesday , Ju « e 20 . At the hour usually devoted to private business , Mr . J . Wortley moved tthe second reading of the bill entitled " An Act to declare the illegitimacy of certain persons alleged or claiming to be children of the Most Hon . George Terrard , Marquis of - Townshend . " The bill had been sent down to them from tho House of Lords , yrhere it had undergone the fullest investigation , and was intended to secure to the parties promoting it the honours and privileges of the peerage to which they claimed to be entitled . *

      Mr . C . Buller moved , that the bill be read a second time that davfsix months . He threw overboard all the facts mentioned by his noble and learned friend opposite' and proved before the House of Lords ; and argued the impropriety of passing such a measure upon [ general principles . He ad * mitted that those facts involved a monstrous hardship ob tha Townshend family . He sympathised with the feelings of Lord G . Townshend , who saw his succession to the hereditary honours of his family endangered ; but he sympathised also with the unfortunate Marchioness of Townshend , who had been bound by law to a man whom she could not but loathe , and from whom that very law prevented her from obtaining a release . He was therefore not

      surprised that she , who had acted the part of a faithful and affectionate consort to Mr . M&rgett ' s , should at last determine that " the law , which had made her children illegitimate , should also make them legitimate , and that the law which made the Marquis of Townshend her husband should also make h > ni the father of those children . " Admitting , however , the monstrous hardship which such a determination nrght inflict npon tbe j Townshendfaunilyjhe objected to the present measnte , as being a partial remedy for it . Wiiy should it be introduced for the benefit of the peerage alone \< Wny not introduce' a general law , affecting not only peerages , but also the estates of private individuals ? The House divided , ' when there appeared , —

      For the second reading ... ... 153 Against it 49 Majority 104 The hill wasUhon read a second time , and ordered to be committed to a committee of selection . Mr . Pakington gave notice , on the part of Lord Ashley , that on the 4 th of July , he would move for leave to bring in a bill for the improvement of the condition of the industrious classes by the'establishment of the allotment system and of a general loan society . A " talk" then ensued on the " Danish Claims " brought forward by Mr . Hawos , who wished to get some £ 220 , 000 for " compensation" to " our merchants" for losses incurred by them during tho war with Denmark . He ! was resisted by the Chancellor of the Exchequer , who told him that ho had no such sum to sparo .

      SEPTENNIAL ACT . Mr . Sharman Crawfors then rose to move for leave to biing in a bill to repeal the act of the 18 th year of Geo . I ., statute 11 , c . 38 , for extending the duration of Parliament to seven years . , The Hon Gentleman recapitulated the various acts which had been passed to regulate the duration of Parliament , and expressed his opihiou that , so long as Parliaments existed foT seven years , there could be no security for public liberty and the rights of the people . Ac

      to the duration to which he should propose to return , he was willing to accept the period fixed by 6 Wm , and Mary , c . 11—namely , three years , though in his own opinion a much ( shorter period would be fairer towards the public . s If he Members of t £ at House bad been more subjected to popular opinion , by a shorter tenure of their seats , a great part of that unjust and mischievous legislation which' had so oppressed and injured the people would never have been ventured upon . Dr . Bowring seconded the motion .

      Sir James Graham : considered it decidedly beneficial to the public that a somewhat extended duration should be given to Parliaments . The vvhole experience x > f years past proved that the average duration of Parliaments was not more than four years , a period which , in his opinion ^ answered every purpose of making members responsible to the public , while it ] gave them time to acquire that practical experience which was so essential to sound legislation . The House then divided , — For the motion 23 Against it ... 46 Majority against the motion —23 Lord Clements renewed his motion for the production of the correspondence connected with the disbanding of the yeomanry corps in Ireland , to which '

      Lord Eliot gave fthe same reply as on a former occasion , namely , that he was willing to furnish copies of all orders for the disbanding . of the yeomanry , with some selections , omitting : from the correspondence whatever was of a personal or superfluous nature . Lord Clements accepted the offer , and theretnrns were ordered . The report of the Princess Augusta ' s Annuity Bdl was brought up , and the other orders being disposed of , the House adjourned .

      WEpNESDAY , June 21 . The Princess Augusta ' s Annuity Bill was read a third time , and paused . ' ;

      WASTE LANDS BILL . Mr . Feb . ra . nd said , as the select committee on the allotment of waste lands had not yet' made their report , he proposed to postpone the second reading of the Waste Lands Allotment Bill till it should be ready . —Order disobarged , and fixed for Wednesday next . : After the second reading of the Scientific Societies ' Biil had been moved and agreed to , and some " talk " had been had on the Coroners * Bill , Lord Worsley ' s Commons Inclosure Bill was proposed for second reading , which was : met by Colonel Sibthorp with an amendment , that it be read that day six mouths- . Mr . Stuart Wortlet recommended the postponement of the bill , ou ihe ground of its importance and complicity .

      Lord Worsley ; felt strongly the importance of carrying forward ' the bill during the present session . There were nearly two million acres of waste land in the country , which could be reclaimed at an expence of £ 12 an acre , hy which great employment would be afforded to the labouring population . There was a strong disposition to carry out inclosures , but parties were deterred by the great expence of separate inclosure acts . He proposed to carry out his measure by the aid of the tithe commissioners ; who , on the application > of two-thirds of those ) ink rested ia an inclosure , should send assistant commissioners to examine and report . The commissioners to report the progress of all inclosures twioo a year to the Homo-office : and the House of Commtfns fo have a

      veto on any lnolosure , should one-fourth of those interested object \ to it . He bad endeavoured to ascertain tha probable expence of the working of his measure ; and was satisfied that unopposed inclosures , the expence of which under the present system , amounts to from £ 400 to £ 600 , would not by the present bill exceed £ 40 . Considering tho capital which nould be invested in reclaiming land , . iiid the employment which wou'd bd afforded , ho was saiirficj ihat the bili , if passed , woald provt

      an important boon to the interests of agriculture and the country . j Mr . Fbrrand was sorry be could not agree in the measure as it stood . He found in it not one single provision that recognised distinctly thelrights of the poor cottager . If it became law , the poor man never would have a chance of becoming master of a piece of waste land ; and he thought the bill at any rate could not by any possibility be carried out in the manufacturing districts . But though he could not agree to the Biil as it stood , to ] some plan ol some such nature they must come , if they would avoid revolution . ( Hear , hear . ) Machinery was increasing to such an extent that not only would the masses now out of employment remain' so , but those masses would be greatly increased before long . The

      new wool-combing machinery would alone throw lQOfiOQ persons out of employment . What must be the result of such a state of things ? It was in evidence before the Select Committee on the Allotment System , and the evidence was that of a member of the House , that in one district , near where he ( Mr . FerranoV reside J , the poors' rate was 93 . 6 i . in the pound ; in other places they were paying a 7 s . rate . The farmers could not long support that state oi things . He was convinced that by next rent-day one farmer in every nve would be paying 5 s . in the pound . It was known that in 1836 and 1837 a vast number of poor labourers had been removed from tho agricultural to the manufacturing districts . He had moved for a return respecting the numbers ( of these poor

      persons so removed . What was the-result ? Although Mr . Muggridge admitted that as many as 10 , 000 were removed , the return only accounted for 4 , 928 . Was the House aware of the state of the wool-combing trade at present ? In { Yorkshire and Lancashire thousands of wool-combers got only two days' work in a week . There were many instances where poor men with families had gone with tears in ( their eyes to the masters , and asked for two or three stone of wool to comb , in orderj to keep them from starvation ; and the answer was , We are in no want of workmen , but we can give you some work at 13 £ d . a stone . " If the House could not pass some such measure as this what were they there for ? They were soon to separate : and , he asked

      bad the House during the session passed one singla measure , or done anything to alleviate the existing distress ? There might be a slight stimulus ia trade just at present ; but he wjaa thoroughly convinced that , before long , trade would fall back to what it was at Christmas . The Right Hon . Baronet ( Sir j . Graham ) , when he ( Mr . Ferrand ) had asked for leave to bring in a bill for the enclosure of cultivable waste land , had said that all [ the waste land that was worth cultivation had been enclosed ; would he say so still ? He ( Mr . Ferrand ) was told by a gentleman well acquainted with the district in Lancashire of which h& spoke , that there were 200 , 000 acres &f waste land cultivatable there . ! The House , in his opinion , was answerable to provide the means of

      subsistence for the people ; and if they were not able to provide those means he had no hesitation in saying their functions were at an end . He ( Mr . Ferrand ) wanted to know what good the ] waste land did at present . It was true , that some gentlemen might find on it the means of a day ' s grouse-shooting ; but he would put it to tho gentlemen of England , whether they were not prepared to 1 sacrifice their grouse-shooting for the benefit of the poor . Opposed as he was to this bill , bis intention was , as soon as the Allotment Committee had come to a decision as to the results of the Allotment System to move the second reading of the } bill of which he had given notice . He had presented various petitions from his own part of the country , signed by thousands of freeholders and respectable persons .

      In the parish in which he resided there must be 150 or 200 freeholders , and they with the others generally supported his measure . Could the Noble Lord boast of any such support to his bill among the publio outof doors ? He was aware that the bili would be of some benefit to the labouring classes ; ho knew that no bill had come before the House for some time that was so likely to alleviate the * frightful evils which now prevailed among the working population ; but still he could not agree t ' o it , because it would deprive the poor of their rights , and to that he would never agree . If , however , * the principle of Ats bill should be adopted by the Noble Lord , viz ., to give a ceriain portion of every common enclosed tothe poor , then the Noble Lord should hare his support . i

      Sir Charles Burrsll and Mr . Miles approved of Lord Worsley ' s bili . | Mr . Roebuck objected to the bill that its tendency wae to create a pauper population connected with the land . Depend upon it , an allotment system would raise a pauper agrarian population in this country . It was better tba" the working classes should be dependant on wages . He did not wish to seo such commons as those adjacent to London appropriated ; their benefit to the health and enjoyment of the population , especially the working classes , was immense . Moreover , ' he 8 aw in tho bill the seeds of many a law-suit . Let Lord Worsley , aud those who thought with him , repeal the Corn laws , and they would provido surer and more abundant employment for the population than anything this bill could do for them . Lord John Manners also wished ' to see the work

      ing classes dependant ou wages ; but an allotment system would enable them to eke bat their subsistence . He wished Lord Worsley ' s ] bill to be postponed until the report of the committee ot inquiry on the subject of allotmont was ma ' de . Mr . C . Buller paid a compliment to Lord John Manners , for his generous symyatHi ^ s wiih the poor and working classes . But he cou ^ d see no reason for the postponement of the bill , as it established no new principle , and the operation o ' f which he conceived would be exceedingly beneficial . Mr . i \ oebuck ' s objection to the inclosure of commons , on the ground of the health and enjoyment of the population , was met by an express provision of the bill ; and he could not possibly understand why the cultivation of waste lands should not be undertaken for a reason like this . After some observations from Lord Sandon .

      Mr . S . Crawford said he could not let this opportunity pass without stating the reasons why he persisted in his opposition to tho measure . He considered that every enclosure bill that had passed that session was a robbery of the rights of the poor , and ho looked on this bill as a measure for plundering the poor in a general form withou ^ conimg to Parliment to do it . Theie was no provision in the bill that in his opinion adequately secured the poor mau ' s rights . He therefore should give it his most decided opposition . To talk of playgrounds for the poor in their present state was a ! u insult ; if they had playgrounds to go to thoy could not resort to them at present . Tho best play-ground the poor man could have , in his opinion , w ^ s lan d to raise an

      independent support on . The Bon . and Learned Member for Bath desired that tjie poor should be dependant only on wag * s and not on land . He ( Mr . S . Crawford ) desired the reverse ; he wished tho labouring poor to derive an independent support from land , connecting the use of [ land to a certain extent with those who were employed in manufacturing labour . He denied that Small occupations of land caused the distress of the wretched poor of Ireland . Their distress was owing to their not being able to get those small occupancies in snch a manner as at onca to derive tho full bentSt of

      them . They were prevonted by high rents and other means from getting the full benefit of their holdings . He would not have enclosures except on condition that all should be for tho poor , retriun < ratinf » those who had rights of common } by tho sale of a portion of the enclosed land , or iby reserving rents upon it . Thinking , then , that this bill would extend the monopoly which the rich already had against the poor , he felt it his duty to j divide the House against the bill ; and if the Hon . Gentleman thraught of withdrawing his motion forftakiug the second reading that day six month ? , he should divide on the original question . I

      Mr . Divett , looking to -the deficiency of employment , and tho importance of extending it , for tho sake of the security of the country , woul < t support the bill . I Mr . Aglionbv also declared his support of tho bill , on similar grounds . j Ou a division , the secend reading of the bill was cai ried by 64 to 4 . | Some other roatine business parcel , and the House adjourned at ten minutes past eight .

He was a young man of ability ; and , had his life been spared , be would have bern a valuable acquisition to fi . be cause of Char tism . He displayed censiderab le acuteness when engaged in defending the principles of democracy ; and his denunciations of tyranny ! were powerful and impressive . He was interred in tho Rev . James Scholefield ' s Burial Ground . The members of the AsBccia ion , in order to evince their deep sense of his worth , engaged a band ; and , on Sunday last , walked in procession to tha grave . Arrived at the spot which was destined to contain the ashes of departed patriotism , the band ( struck up the

      Marsellais < Hymn . By this time a great coacourse of spectatois were assembled . fTae music having ceased , a youth of seventeen years of age delivered a funeral oration , wherein hef eulogised the deceased , and called upon all who heard him to assist in the overthrow of tyranny , anti , ly their united exertions , accomplish the regeneration of the human race . A youth of the n ^ nie of Hargreaves followed , and defended the pj ? if c ; l principles which had been ' . advocated by his oeceased friend ; and urged on all present"a du : performance of the duties devolving on them as parents , as [ brothers , as sisters , and as cifciaens of an oppressed and much injured oonntry .
