We hare not done with thiB Duke of Hamilton , Lord lieutenant of the County , and LAWBREAKER . We have other matters to talk to Mm about .

REPUBLICANISM IN SPAIN . WHO IS THE PROPHET ? Lst us see how the matter abont which we have been predicting goes on . We foretold that the visit of the Queen to the King of the French , meant more than the mere bandying of compliments between an old man and a young woman . We said that the old Diplomatist would play for Spain ; but the Times for a Jong time was shy , and would not bite . We directed attention to the fact that the all-absorbing question for the consideration of the little congress , would be the " means by which the
growing demand for Republicanism could be arrested . " We directed attention to the horror with which the idea of Spain declaring for a Republic would strike the King of the Barricades " . We animadverted upon the precipitancy with which the Cabinet of St . James ' s had recongnized the Government of the bloody Narvez , and his bloody soldier-shooting , liberty-destroying crew . True , the Times told us that" our Govern ' ment recognized the tyranfs tille no further than ordering our Minister at the Court of Spain to transact business with the usurper" . How much further he could have gone under present circumstances we are at a loss to understand ; but shall look to the Leading Journal for information .
It appears that the bloody ruffian , Narvez , ib so haunted by Mb . butcheries , his treasons , and his treacheries , that he has been summoned by Cbistjna , the Spanish mischiefmaker and prime favourite of the French King , to attend her in Paris ; and for what purpose does the reader think ! Why to invite French aid in the establishment of Spanish tyranny , and to secure the Spanish throne as a marriage portion for the French King ' s son ! And how does the reader suppose the noninterfering Leading Journal pee * pares the way for such intervention ? Why thus " A measure" ( says the Times of Thursday ) w which appears to indicate some desire to coalesce with ANY THING that is not revolutionary , in oTder to stay the FLOOD OF
REPUBLICANISM WITH WHICH SPAIN AND ITS RULERS ARE THREATENED . " Now then , may we not sorrowfully , but proualy ask , *• Who is the prophet 1 " Aye , and the one great ghost that haunts the mind of every tyrant upon earth is the "Flood of Republicanism , " with which misrule is THREATENED /' The curious article in the Times come upon us so late in the week than we have not time to give it that "flood of republican" consideration which it so justly merits ; but we must observe that upon no one subject has the meandering Times felt itself compelled to make so many chops , slopes , and changes upon so mnch of the Spanish question and French intrigue as has coma under the review of that Jim Crow Journal .
Aye 1 Spain is sure to become a Republic , and God speed her i Espabtero is likely to be the first President , and then Louis Philippe will squeak And after he has gone , how many years purchase will the other European Thrones ( always excepting England ) be worth ? Who can say !

W . H . will see that his letter U not inserted . It is not -withheld from any disrespect to himself personally , or from any desire to prevent him occupying his proper position before the Chartlatpublic ; but wholly and solely from a fear that its insertion , involving as that insertion would reply and explanation , would cause discussions of a nature not at all desirable at the present time , because they would inevitably lead to distraction from that which should be the one sole object of erery friend at the present moment , the reorganJzition of oar ranks . Many masters are mooted in the letter , and put in such a way , as would be sure to cause attention . To let these go without reply would be unjust to other parties ; and thas a discussion would inevitably arise ; a discussion of that nature , too . which would be svre to lead to disunion . Under
these circumstances , and for these reasons , we hare determined to withhold the cause that to ns appears pregnant with sneh injurious ejfecls-THB Yictims . —We trust our friends will not forget that this day , to-morrow , and Monday , Sept 23 rd , 24 tb , and 25 th , are the days set apart for making the collection throwtbont the country In support of tbe Victim Fund . We trust every one will work In this matter as though the lives of tbe victims and their families depended on his individual exertion * . Let all monies , as soon as collected , be despatched to Mr . O'Connor , the Treasurer , to the care of Mr . Cleave , 2 , Shoe Lane , Fleet-street , London . We trust , for tbe honour of Chartism , that the wives and little ones of ear incarcerated brothers "will have that justice done to them by tbe public their condition so imperatively demands .
Mr . Grtjndt ' s Colliers , near Bolton , acknowledge ¦ with thanks a number of contributions , from sixpence and upwards , to tbe amount of £ 4 19 s . l . ^ d . We have not room for the list of names of tbe contributors . J . Frost in an address to tbe members of tbe National Society , which we have not room for , urges on tbe parties be addresses tbe propriety of aiding tbelr democratic brethren in their struggle for tbe Charter . He says the principles of tbe People ' s Charter are admitted to be correct by tbe great thinkers among tbe " Rationalists , "—vide the New Moral World , Dec . 31 , 1842 , where the Editor says : " We fully
admit tbe right of every individual to have a voice in tbe making of the laws by which he is to be governed , and in tbe distribution of tbe taxes levied upon bis industry . ** This says J . Frost , is Chartism . He continues : — " FriendB of the human race , I entreat yon to give this subject your most attentive consideration ; if yon are satisfied that tbe " Six points" embody your own impressions of political justice , then I call upon you to join the National Charter Association , and aid by every means in your power those wbo have tbe same object in view as yourselves , namely , tbe happiness of tbe whole family , and who shew it by their favourite motto' The Charter a means—Social happiness the end . '"
J . Jagger . —His " news" has not been inserted because sometimes , as is tbe case this week , a week old , when we received it , or because we had not room . At tbe same time we thank our correspondent for bis trouble . W . Pitt , London , highly approves of Mr . O'Connor ' s letter , published in last week ' s Star . He says—• ' Follow the noble resolve of Feargus O'Connor ; touch not , taste not , the filthy tobacco and tbe poisonous gin . Every sixpence you spend in the purchasing of these articles , helps to load the muskets sharpen the sabres and point the bayonets , employed to ketrp you in bondage . Working men , labour to enlighten your minds , and be no longer a grovelling , swinish multitude . Support tbe new Organizition ; extend its branches throughout tbe country , and shew to your indomitable leader , O'Connor , that you are determined not to lose his noble services , by proving yourselves worthy of them . "
John Smart , Aberdeen , in reference to the New Organizition , says— ' We will now take up the new scheme with earnestness and determination .- I hope ' all good patriots will agree in giving instant effect to the labours of the Conference , who . In my opinion , and I know in the opinion of the Aberdeen Chartists generally , did their worfcr nobly " . We are happy to hear that such are tbe sentiments of onr friends in the far North . We can inform onr Correspondent that : tbe men of Aberdeen do not stand alone in their determination to forthwith join their English brethren ; From all quarters of " North the
Tweed" we have letters of congratulation on the adoption by the Delegates , of the ' New Plan " . We have long been talking of and nrging tbe union of tbe democrats of the two countries . That nnion will now undonbtedly be cemented . This alone is worth all tbe labour and expence of the late Conferenae ; this alone will be a proud reward to the delegate * fo » their labonrs , —tbe consciousness that , frem their deliberations has resulted a measure which will bind in the holy bonds of brotherhood tbe long-divided , and therefore long-oppressed , people of " jnerrie England" and " bonnie Scotland " .
Union with Scotland . —Since writing the above , wo have received our " weekly budget" from Glasgow , which will be found in another column . " Honest John Colqohonn , " assisted by friend Adams and others of tbe enlightened and truly patriotic leaders of Glasgow Chartism , are working away in gallant style to effect a junction of the two great wings of the Democratic army . Onr readers will see that a meeting of tbe members of tbe present Charter Association of Glasgow is to be holden on Monday next , to consider tbe propriety of adopting tbe "New Plan . " This is right The Plan has been adopted by the English ; Chartists through their delegates , instructed for that purpose . Bat the Scottish Chartists
being unrepresented in tbe late Conference , the proper mode of procuring for tbe Plan the legitimate sanction of the Scottish people is undoubtedly that pursued by our Glasgow friends . Wherever Asspciations are existing at the present time is Scotland , let tbe Councils or Committees summons the members together to know whether or not they will adopt the " New Plan" Where the former associations hive become defunct , let the good men who are anxious for tfae revival of the agitation , get together , if they o lj muster ten ( the number nececszry to send for a " Charter" ) , and take the necessary preparatory steps for the forrastlon Of a "Branch , " tbe moment tbe Plan shall have bees

The Collier Delegates at Abwalton bad better send their resolnvion respecting the leclurer to the Executive Committee of the Miners'Union . It would be invidious to insert it in a public print .

We hope , therefore , that onr friends will send as early as possible , as we are anxious to have the movements of our Scottish friends duly ehronicled and faithfully represented in the •? Organ of the Movement . < We must at the Bame time request that all commanfcations be made as brief and as pointed bj toey possibly can be , as the great pressure of matter connected with the "Miners' Movement , "the doings of" Rebecca , " the " Bapeal AgitaUon , " ** , will not allow us to give publicity to lengthy accounts of meetings addresses . &c
Mr . Cleaves list of subscriptions has been received ; but it does not set forth for what ot ^ ect they have been subscribed . The heading of the list is omitted . Of course the list can be included in next week ' s . Edwin Mdrless , Birmingham . —The " dispute " must be seUlid L at home . We cannot , and will not , interfere in it , as far as publicity is concerned . If we might advise , we would say to all parties : " holdl enough . ' until a meeting face to face can be bad . " But this advice is for atf parties ; for warm-hearted , hot-headed , or injadioious / rfends , as well as for those ranked as enemies . Not another word should be allowed to be said respecting ' the matter in any assembly , until such face-to-face meeting can be holden ; and every friend to both parties will discourage all private canvasing of the matter till that time . The Sfitalfields' Silk Weavers—Their
Memorial , and the Report of the Deputation to tbe Board of Trade , is in type ; . but we are compelled to let them stand over till next week , when they shall appear . A Friend , Sheffield , writes us that " six of the Sheffield Trades have joined the Associated body of Trades within the last fortnight" He adds that " the tradesmen generally are fast getting sick of the Free Trade humbug , and be hopes will soon all be Chartists . '' We hope so too , and are glad to learn that the men of Sheffield are combining for their own protection . Their only friends are themselves . It affords us much pleasure to see that the ' * Associated Trades" are taking up the cause of the oppressed Type Founders ; a body of men eminently
deserving every assistance that can be rendered them . Jakes Hughes . —The landlord can only distrain on the premises .

I have long foreseen what the Police Force would ; become ; and I cannot find words sufficiently strong , to express the contempt I feel for those who have so pig-headedly closed their eyes to this growing curse as now to feel 'sensation ' at what was predicted long since as certain to result from tbe establishment of this odious and anti-English spy and bludgeon force . " E . Hi let will see from Mr . Wheeler ' s letter in
another column that in all likelihood tbe plan will be Enrolled by the time , or within a few hours after this meets the eye of our correspondent . With respect to the " Chittera" they are indispenaible for the opening of all Branches . They are inteudod to guard the body against anything like spurious membership ; to prevent any number of persons , who might be even opposed to Chartism , getting together , and calling themselves a Branch of the body . Tbe " Charters" will afford to the body at large a guarantee , that worthy and fitting characters only will belong to the Association ; and when any Branch shows itself unworthy or unfit , Its 'Charter" ( as provided
for in the rules ) will be withdrawn . The words of tbe clause in which ' payment for the " Charter" is provided for , are , " a sum not exceeding 2 s . 6 d . shall be charged , ice . " This is merely to cover tbe cost of the document , which it is intended shall be of a superior description—fit to be framed and glazed and hung up in the room of the Branch : an honourable ornament , which the members will regard with honest pride , as the authoritt by which they meet as members of the National Charter Associatfun . We are glad to find that E . Riley ' s locality is aixious for the Enrolment of the plan . Such we * are happy to say is the feeling generally .
Ashton . —We see by a Liverpool paper that there is another partial turn-out of the Ashton Spinners . We have received a large printed placard addressed to the master manufacturers , for which we have not room . It appears from the placard , that the Messrs . Hall and Co . Currin-lane , are paying a rate of wages far below that of other firms , and far below that agreed to be paid by all the firms—the Messrs . H . and Co . included . The result is , that other firms are compelled , or encouraged to reduce wages also . Hence the turn-out . Other grievances are complained of . We hope the truly respectable manufacturers of tbe town will take the side of the men in opposing a system pregnant with misery to the working , and ruin in the long run to all other o ' aases . Henrt Pjtt . —We fear our correspondent has but little chance of recovering the money . The ex pence of trying will be considerable ; and bis chances of success are but slender indeed .

coerce and the scimitar to destroy their fellow creatures . But what shall we say of men who protesting against such acts of infamy , and thundering forth their anathemas against foreign persecutors , refuse liberty of speech to their fellow countrymen , and resort to violence only second to that of tbe Turks and Portugeese , to prevent persons , at leajt as honest m themselves from being heard at a public meeting . Here is a case in point . A meeting was called at Edinburgh to symsthise with Dr . Kalley , whose offence by-thebye Is the undefined and ; undeflneable crime called 11 Blasphsmy . " A ltt of nen-intrasiamst ministers who are also , according to their own account , " sufferers for conscience-sake , " took the lead ; the notorious Dr . Candlish moving the first resolution . The Dr .
was beard with every attention . The resolution was seconded , when just as tha Lord Provost tose to put the resolution , | & Mr . Jbffrt rose to move an amendment in addition to the resolution . He was immediately assailed ) by the *• sympathisers" with cries of " turn him ; out , " and a most tremendous storm of hisses , and ) expressions of disapprobation . The reason of all' this was , that Mir . Jtffrey is a Socialist Lecturer , and therefore considered fair ' game to hunt down by these pretended advocates of " Civil and Religious Libertyf I The Lord Provost reftmed to allow Mr . "JEFFRET to proceed ; and Mr . J . refused to be put dlwn . The police vaere then introduced into the hall , ( who " of course" dragged Mr . Jeffrey from the platform I Mr . Soothwell
immediately took Mr . Jeffrey ' s place ; the police dragged him away ! Mr PatErson , tbe bookseller , followed ; o policeman hurled him from the platform headlong . ' He was then seized by the neck , and dragged through the meeting I \ His hair torn from his head / He was beaten with slicks , and his head laid open ! Having thus effectually quelled opposition , if any was intended , though we believe tbe object ef Mr . Jeffrey and his friends was simply that of making the resolutions of the meeting more universal in their character , by denouncing persecution for opinion's sake , no matter by whom practised Tbe sympathisers proceeded with , and finished their business , denouncing in loud and , long harangues the cruel persecution of Catholics , and abusing with right good
will the Church of Rome as the mother of all abominations . Jeffrey and Paterson were the next day charged at the ] Edinburgh police-office with " committing a breach of tbe peace . " The sort of evidence against them may be gathered from tbe following . One of the witnesses said : "Thinks an individual comes for the purpose of disturbing a meeting when he rises to address it after a > resolution is proposed and seconded " . When could or should an "individual" rise to " address a meeting" bnt then ? What a precious idea this witness most have of " free discussion " , and tbe laws by whieb public meetings are governed . We have seldom beard of bo brutal and outrageous a violation of public decency and individual right las this case shews . We have
given publicity to the case , that tbe public may know , and justly mark with their reprobation , the persecuting spirit of these hypocritical pretenders to liberality , and cloven-footed advocates of " civil and religious liberty i" meaning thereby liberty only for themselves and chains for all the rest of mankind-The case is not yet decided , having been adjourned . We shall look out for the decision upon it . It is of importance . Tbe tight of conduct at public meeting is involved in It , j H . Jones , Liverpool ;—Never mind the antics of the poor disappointed man . &o on without him ; or if be will sot permit this , but inflicts his presence an 3 reddling , just qaietlyj hear what he baa to say , and then go on" with yoar own business , as though
he bad never spoken or been near yon at all . If his object is division or turmoil , don't gratify him . Treat him with that contempt which bis conduct merits . Most assuredly he will net be gratified by seeing himself snd doiaga "in print . " He may "dare the Liverpool men to publish" as long as hs pleases : bat no publication here I It is sufficient ] that the Liverpool men know him . His power for ! harm is there ended . If he betakes himself elsewhere , the remembrance of his former doings will follow him . WILLIAM Daniells . —His letter bad better be sen to tbe Executive Council of the Miner ' s Union . We a re sure that upon second thoughts be will see the p ropriety of withholding it from oar columns .

REPEAL ASSOCIATION . —MONDAY . The usual weekly meeting of this body was heU at the Corn Exchange to-day , Michael J . Conway in the chair . The advertisement convening tbe meeting announced that Mr . O'Connell would attend ; but it was scarcely possible he could arrive in Dublin in sufficient time , having to travel from CHfden , a distance of one hundred and fort y miles . Mr . Flannedt , the Editor of the Freeman ' s Journal , banded in several subscriptions ; amongst others that of Mr . Samuel Gordon , of No . 23 , Aungierstreet , a gentleman who has heretofore taken an active part in forwardiDg Tory opinions up to a very late period . i Mr . Connor , the well-known advocate of fixity of tenure , rose , as be said , to give notice that on the next day of meeting be would move the adoption of a resolution to the following effect : —
" That until our national rights of self-legislation , be in the ' possession of our own Parliament , and of a valuation and perpetuity ! of his farm to the tenant , we Repealers shall pay no rent , county cess , rent charge , tithe , poor rate , or any other charge on land . " He was an enemy % o oppression—Mr . John O'Connell begged to interrupt Mr . Connor . He highly approved of Mr . Connor ' s conduct and untiring exertions to put tin end to the dreadful system of extermination practised by Irish Tory landlords , but he could not agree in the motion of which Mr . Connor gave notice , therefore he hoped that it would be withdrawn—( hear ) . | Mr . CONNOR said if he was offered his life as the condition of withdrawing that notice , he would not accept it ; therefore he iwould Btand or fall by that resolution . He was determined
Mr . John O'Connelij was sorry to be obliged to interrupt Mr . Connor again . Any member of the association had a right tojglve a notioe of motion , but that motion should be a j legal one , and not suob as the present , which he believed to be entirely illegal—< hear , hear , and cheers ) . He repeated , that that notice would bring the Association under the notice of the law . j Mr . Connor said he would pay no charge out of land until the Irish Parliament was restored—( hear ) . Irishmen , continned he , the humbug has been going on long enough ; Be I will—
-Mr . John O'Connell : I must call you again to order , sir . This Association must follow tbe dictates of the law . We have always avoided committing ourselves , and we will not ^ now depart from the great moral principle we have established , and in pursuing which we have shown such a bright example to the rest of the world—( cbeetB ) . If observations sueb as Mr . Connor has given expression to were approved of by the Association , it would endanger the great and glorious cause of Repeal —( loud * cheering ) . I ( continued Mr . J . O'Connell ) call on you acain , Mr . Connor , to withdraw that notice ; if you do not do so , I shall be obliged to move that ( be chair be vacated and the meeting dissolved . Thb Chairman—I recommend you , Mr . Connor , to adopt the very prudent and proper advice given yon by tbe member for ( Kilkenny . I ceitainly will not receive any such notice—( hear ) . Mr .

I have given notice of the motion , and all I want i § that the gentlemen of tbe press shall give the motion in tbe newspapers , and thus it will pass through them to the people of Ireland—( confusion ) . Tfae Chairman said Mr . Connor treated the association with disrespect , if he brought forward his motion merely for the purpose of having it inserted in the news * papers , and not to have it publicly diieussed by the association—( hear , hear } . It was a motien which ought not to have been introduced there at all . A calm followed this scene of excitement , by the perusal of some money letters fiom the country , but it was not of lone duration , for > 4
Mr . John O Connell rose again , and said he regretted being obliged to re-enter upon a subject , the introduction of which pained him considerably—( hear , hear ) . It was not treating the association ' airly to introduce such a matter there —( hear , htar ) . The effect of such a motion , if adopted , would be to divert the public mind from the peaceable progress they were making , and to bring them in direct colliesion with tbe law authorities of the land . Hod that notice come from any body else but him , it would not matter so much— ihear )—aud at a moment , too , when they were informed , oh tbe authority of tbe Cm low Sentinel , tbafc opposition to rent had begnn in the county CarSow , and that it had even reached portions of Tjpperary . He
was not surprised at this unconstitutional violencethis traltoriam to Repeal and tbe country , spreading in Carlew , because that county was tbe blank in the Repeal map of Ireland—( cheers ) . He was of opinion that they should strike off tbe Repeal roll the names of snch persons as had taken part in , or who ba <) not endeavoured to pnt an end to this violence in Carlow and Tipperary ; and that , in addition , they should adopt a resolution , to the effect that they had beard with tbd strongest disapprobation and deep regret the sentiments put forward that day by Mr . Connor ; and if he persisted in those sentiments , he must be prepared for tbe consequences with which the Association , in due regard for the cause of Repeal and for the people , would have to Visit him—( cheers ) .
Mr . Connor—By my resolution I will stand or falL While breath l » in my body I will nphold it —( confusieu ) . I am not the man to desert the people , if ten thousand cannon were placed before me—( great uproar ) . Mr . J . O'Connell again rose amid load cheering , and said be never undertook a dnty with mora reluctance in his life—be never felt more inward distrust of his own powers to impress his opinions on the meeting—than be did on that occasion ; but , in his opinion , Mr . Connor ought not to be permitted any longer to remain a member of that Association—( great applause ) . He had avowed principles which that Ju . focia'ion
conld not allow for one moment —( bear , hear . —inasmuch as they were in direct opposition to tho law . The forms of the Association required that not'ee of motion be given in case a member be struck off the list ; . but be ( Mr . O'Connell ) confessed that be felt inclined to ask tbe Association to suspend the standing order , in order to move Mr . Connor ' s expulsion at once—( cheers , and confutsion ) . Mr . Connor ' s past services alone prevented him from asking the Association to do so ; but unless he totally disclaimed those principles , be would move his expulsion on the next day of meeting . Mr . O'Neill DiUNT said he would second it .
Mr . Connor ( much excited , and with uplifted a ra ) : I . will go to death in support of my resolution . Pounds , shillings , and pence have been too long coming into ( The rest of the sentence was lost in the uproar which prevailed . ) The starving people ot Ireland are to be fed —( disapprobation ) . Mt . Clements spoke strongly and emphatically against Mr . Connor ' s cond act . Messrs . Callaghan , O'Hea , Stritch , Murphy , and Hamilton , also condemned the motion as seditious . Mr . Connor—I acted on the , principle af that ' motion myself—( groans ) . Next year , millions of men , women , and children will be starving—recollect that . Mr . Daunt—It is by legal means we seek to relieve them—nut by illegal measures , such as you propose —( cheers ) . Mr . John O'Connell then moved the following resolutions .- — i
" First—That this Association has heard with horror and indignation tbe doctrines propounded by Mr- Connor respecting the payment of rents , county cess , tithes , poor rate , or rent-charge , this day , in the attempt he made to put upon the books a notice plainly and grossly illegal , and directly tending to create and encourage criminal outrage and violence throughout tbe country . " Secondly—That if anything can add to these feelings , it is the consideration of the time Mr . Connor has chosen for making such remarks—a time when , in the county of Cirlow , where Repeal has as yet made little progress , a violent and criminal opposition to rents has according to the public prints , already begun to manifest itself . " Thirdly—That this Association indignantly rejects , and refuses to insert on its baoks , or to allow to be for a
moment entertained , Mr . Connor ' s notice ; and that they declare that alt who put forward such doctrines , and offisr such advice to the people as is contained in that notice , are either madmen or traitors to tbe glorious causo of Repeal , to the noble people who support that cause , and Old Ireland . " Mr . O'Hea seconded the motion , which was carried un&uimou&ly . Thus rests the matter for the present . The meeting was soon after adjourned to Wednesday next , when Mr . O'Connell will attend .

PROGRESS OF THE NEW PLAN OF ORGANIZATION . ' Bt the subjoined address , from the General Secretary elect of the New Natiosal Charter Association , it will be seen that thz Plas has been duly laid before tbe certifying Barrister j and Hot Tuesday next is fixed by Mm for the retnrninjj of his answer . Next -week , therefore , we fully expect to be able to announce the ENROLMENT of the Lawa and Constitution . "
In the meantime all is being done , that can be donej to forward the good -work of active practical operations . The Executive elect ; or at least such of them as reside in London , met on Thursday , to arrange snch preliminary matters as presented themselves- to their attention . As soon as the Esroliron is perfected , measures for the procurement of the Charier authorising the holding of Branches , ¦ will be taken ; and cards of Membership got ready ; but it woald not be prudent to actnally prepare ihesej before the Law ? , of which they are detail accessaries , are actually Enrolled ; actually placed out of donbt .
Steps have been taken for the getting up of a set « f books for Branch purposes : a set of books at once ample , efficient , and uniform : by means of which the Branch accounts can be intelligibly kept . On STETEM much dependBt and in no portion of onr operations is ststkh so mnch needed , as in the matter of aeeonnta . By the set of books that will be prepared , the accounts can be kept so as to be ready at any time , to be laid before the members , without having to wait for much " making up , " or its being
necessary to draw out 4 ** balance sheet before they are at all understandable . This is of great importance . The success of our operations , especially cow that those operations involve the working of two , or more , distinct Fcxds , will greatly dependon tb . B BmpHdty asd xmrfonniiy witih which the aeconatsare kept , if we hare not ststxh , confusion will soon creep in , in spite of the best intention : and whexe confusion is , costidesce cannot exist : and without confidence Juccess is hopeless . With ststeh and simplicity , confidence is Eure to exist .
There will need , in the first instance , a " General Mekbbr 3 Esrouuest Book , " in each Branch , setting forth , under distinct heads , the number ; name , Christian and surname ; place of abode ; occupation ; "whether married cr single ; if married , number of family ; and "whether Yoter , Parliamentary or municipal , of erery member ; together with such other information as may be deemed useful and necessary for local purposes . This enrolment will be invaluable at electiOiS . There is the infoimauon at oace , as to the extent and whereabouts of certain Chartisi strength . And many occasions will arise wheii the information afforded by this perfect enrolment of the members can be used with manifest benefit to the general canse .
There will also need , in addition to this General Enrolment Book , a " Costribctios Book / ' for loth the Funds , Gesebal and Special ; so arranged as to enable the Secretary to keep bcth Junds perfecU y distinct , yet boihin one book , to prevent complexity and delay . This will be found to be amply provided for ; and the system so ample thai am&n with half ajs eye cannot go wrong . There will also need a Cash Book , " in which to enter all the proceeds of the Branch , from
¦ whatever source ; but still the several -funds distinctly set forth J so that at any time the amount received on each ^ and the amount in hand , can ^ immediately set forth . The payments , too , either of proportion of Geseral Pnnd to Executive Committee ; or of whole Land Fnnd to General Treasurer ; or of Miscellaneoas Fund for the general expences of ihe Braneh , moBt also be d « JinciJy set forth . This irill be accomplished in a simple and efficient manner , in the Cash Book prepared for general nse by the Branches .
The " Treasurer ' s Book" will also be prepared in a manner to enable him , at once , to jsay what ihe amount of money paid into his handB on the several and distinct funds has been j and also to specify Ms payments wider each distinct head . Thus xtstek , dear and uniform , willabe at once introduced and enforced . With such a system , and ordi nary -ngilanee and eaation , it will scarcely be possible for anj Branch to get wrong in its accounts without some i-nch system , it "mil hardly be possible to prevent confusion asd error , even -where the disposition is all on ihe side of light and truth .
For the Gekxral Secbxtart a set of books must be prepwed , at once clear , simple , defined , and compnhensiTe ; books worthy of ihe magnitude of oar Association j and a credit to the business-habits of the Executive Committee-men . The General Secretary tri / j hate much to do , with the best and most simple set of books that can be devised : but his labour w 21 be « ihaaced tea-fold , and still unsatisfactorily i Performed , if not applied on ststeji , er with a bad ] and unintelligible set of books . On this head we ] *» glad to have to record the fact , that every , as- j iitfaaca J ^ fc ^ a jompfly *» 3 kindly © 2 e » d bj

those who have had much experience to guide them ; who have had that experience to purchase at a dear rate ; but who will gladly give ns the benefit of it , by setting forth their ststem , with all the suggestions for improvement { that later experience has prompted . We therefore confidently expect that our General Secretary will be at once enabled to commence operations in a manner not at all equalled by any society of working men that ever yet had being This , of itself , is of high moment . With confusion in the general office , system in the branches wonld be of little comparative value ; with system all through , from head oppicb downward , it will be impossible to prevent success .
Of course , all these preparations will take some time , even after the plan is enrolled . But that need not deter the several localities from entering upon their preparations also . They have much to do , before they are ready for full operations . AppUcations for Charters , signed by at least ten names , will have to be forwarded to the General Executive Committee , as soon as it is called into active being by the enrolment of the plan ; and these can be immediately prepared . The form is given in the Pian of Organization ; that form Bhould be neatly copied on a sheet of good foolscap paper ; and when ruled in accordance with tbe printed form , bo as to
set forth in columns the information specified , it can be signed by the ten names fixed upon in each locality to be appointed to it . Then when the laws axe enrolled , and the Executitb called in active operation , the u application" can be duly forwarded , with a statement as to the number of cards , &c . that will be required . As soon as the Charter and cards are ready for delivery , they will be forwarded to all those places where the Executive Committee deem it expedient to grant them . These " applications " then , can be immediately prepared ; so that no delay may occur in the procurement of the Charters autnorising the holding of Branches , after they are ready for issue .
We have said that the " application" should be neatly prepared . Such " applications ' will have to be duly filed and preserved in the archives of the Association ; and will , perhaps , in after times , be looked npoa with no ordinary degree of interest by those who then enjoy freedom and happiness , secured to them by the efforts of their fathers through this very Association . Each locality can also canvas for , and procure ,
lists of names for dne Enrolment in the general books ^ of the Association as soon as it is in active existence . They will also need funds for their Br&ach Charter ; for books of accounts ; for cards ; and for other expences . These they ean be now raising ; by contributions among themselves ami by donations from friends . The breathing time that is thus afforded , before active energetic operations , commence may be most usefully employed , in getting together the sinews of war .
As soon as a Branch is called into existence , by the Charter being in their possession , an election for officers in the manner set forth in ihe Plan will take place : such election being for the period intervening between and the time fixed for the . general quarterly election . But , before hand , the several localities can talk the matter over , aa to who would be likely to invest with office ; regard , we hope , being continually had to the capability of the parties to £ 11 the several situations . To have the Plan EFFICIENTLY worked , the petals must be EFFICIENT men . This is the first , the main consideration , after honesty and integrity .
All this the people in their several localities can immediately ^ see to . They can also aid in another vital matter . The Executive , when called into active being , will need support . The k » rolment of the laws will cost mosey . We believe that the fee is one guinea for every county in which the rules are Enrolled . It has been determined , by the Committee of Conference , to Enrol in the three main English ( Chartist ) counties at first ; and the others can be Enrolled in at any time afterwards , as circumstances may call for . The Scotch Counties will also receive attention , when the Executive meets with full authority .
But this Enrolment will cost money . There will also need account books for tbe general office ; officefittisgs ; and many other expenses . To » eet these we should have a voluntary subscription . The call made by Mr . O'Cosnor in last Star should be well responded to . We are happy to see that some localities have already ) responded , by voting sums of money out of their funds for this purpose . By next week we trast to see the example generally followed
There is also the suggestion and example of Mr . Stall wood , recorded at ihe end of Mr . O'Connor ' s letter of this day . That , too , is deserving of imitation . Much of the efficiency of our movement depends upon the start it gets : and if started well at head-quarters , it will run a far better chance of a good start in each Branch Let vs then start the Executive wxll ! Let this be eHe of our . boundeB duties .
Mr . O'Connor commenced , last week , by his subscription of £ 2 . This very day a gentleman called at the office ; and after handing over to us £ 1 for the Victim FtrxD , also gave ns another £ . \ ior theKew Execntire ; convinced , as he expressed himself , that the movement now to be made is allimportant ? and that its success will be much forwarded by extensive honet-support at the beginniug That subscription we thus chronicle ;—Mr . Titus S . Brooke , Dewtbnry £ \ To it we add : — Editor of Northern Star £ 1
BaviDg now practised , as well as preached , we trust we are entitled to call on others to go and do likewise . " There are many attached to our ranks ; and many more not openly joined with us , to whom a sovereign iB of little consequence ; not so much as a penny is to a hand-loom weaver . From these ire have a right to expect support . We trust they will take the hint ; those of them who read the Northern Star . This movement is one of vital consequence . It is por them to see to it , that their part ia fully performed .
We hear , too , of many parties who u are looking a . ixiocsl ? on" at the step we are taking ; and who are " highly satisfied at tbe progress we have made . " These parties are bound to lend pecuniary aid . On them we call . We do not ask them to join us . Probably they may have enough to do in other Associations ; bnt we have a right to ask for money-Eympathy from tbe wealthy of them . That will be the best evidence of their high satisfaction ; and it trtll add another lu » k to the chain that is to bind all
friends of the poor in one firm union at last . To tbem , therefore , wo appeal . Aid given now will be of more vilue than when we less need it . * ' A hint to tbe wise is sufficient . " Of course , where it is desired , tbe names of donors will be published , when their subscriptions are anuouHced : where it is not desired , they can be set forth ia any way the parties wish . Mr . O'Connor is General Treasurer ; and all monies sent to him , care of Mr . J . Cleave , 1 , Shoe Lane , Fieet-street , will be duly acknowledged and applied .
Commending these remarks , suggestions , and appeals to the several parties to whom they are addressed , we now give tbe statement of the General Secretary elect as to what has been done towards the Enrolment of tbe laws : —
