      ; ' atticle entitled , ' The Fast and the Famine . " Iufortanx from foRiiGAL . —luteHigenco has been received from Lisbon to the 10 th inst . At Lisbsn everything was in confusion . ConJe de Alelio waa advancing rapidly towards the capital , and he was to be joined at Coxhilhas , opposite J . isbon , by Sada Bandeira . The miuisters of the Queen had , in coasequence of this march , fallen into consternation , ami sending for Sir II . Seymour , and the other admiral on the atatiop , begged for a foi ce to protect tlie Queen in case a rising shoald take place . This , however ! was refused ; the admiral offering only to receive the queen on board the Hibernia , in case it was found necessary tor her to leave the . N emsidades . Preparations were making io repel any attack , and some troops had been sent over the river to reinforce tlie division of the army at Venda de l ' almclla . One hundred and Oveof them , however , had deserted .

      Jhe Times has tbe following version of this news : —We have Lisbon news to the 10 th inst . Count Tajol , on the part of the Queen and tho Guvernment , had called on Sir Hamilton Seymour arid Admiral Parker , who had placed the British squadron at the Queen ' s orders , and promised that the men would land immediately she desired it , to protect herself and throne .

According to the tale , tbe Viigin Wary appeared , on ihe 19 th of September , 1840 , to two shepherd boys , who were together 011 the mountain of La Salette , in the diocese

      of Grenoble . She spoke to each hi her native tongue —to one in French , to the other ia the German patois of the frontier ; gWing to each a very long exhortation on tlie want of diligence among the people of Corps , the village to which they belonged . She wore a wreath of roses ; when she went away they saw that the grass did not bend under the pressure of her feet ; she disappeared gradually , the light of her countenan ce dazzling them . On one spot where her feet rested a fountain sprung out , which has not since dried ; and the water has proved a successful remed y for sick penons

      National trades' association I DUSTRY PR 0 TECTI 0 N 0 F IN "Union for the Minion * We deem it ex pedienTtT remind onr numerous members and fnends of the approaching Annual Conference of our Association , which will takeplace * t Birmingham on Whit Monday , May 24 th , and following days , until the business is disposed of , on which occasion every branch of the Association , consisting of thirt y and not more than 150 members , may send one delegate . Branches of 150 and not more than 300 members , may send two delegates , and one additional delegate for every 300 members above that number ; all delega'es being paying members for one of the societies they represent , which , also , pay the expenses of their delegates out of their own local fund . A programme of the matters intended t 0 ue brought undct the consider * , turn of Conference will be transmitted Io each JTn ^ Z PreV T thetime of C ° « f er . n , ' C SeV " points contalned , in which tie branches are required to consider and instruct tbeir delegates thereupon , for further particulars we refer to the rules on pages 2 and 3 . J ; I ( \ ' ' '

      This is a new feature in the business proieedine « of working-men . Previous to the commencement of this Association , which is yet in its infancy , notwithstanding the great number of its members , and when the important proceedings that have been recorded dmingthe last few weeks , in our weekly reports , are considered , such as various misunderstandings and disputes between employers and their workmen being amicabl y settled by the mediation of our agents , without recourse to the old injurious practice of strikes , ami in cases where a reconciliation could not be effected , the men have been put to work ai ; d are uow profitabl y employed , to the no small mortification of their late masters . These , and other

      important matters too numerous to mention , al ter . d to show the great utility of the National Assticiation and its superiority over the antiquated system of merel y local or trades' unions , which very rarely possessed any moral influence , even in their own locality . This Association , however , has proved tbat it is the determination of its executive government that it shall u \ pport its character as a National Institution ; find we fcel confident that the time is not far distant when its influence will have become so great as to supersede the necessity of strikes , and that ihe principle of an equitable renumeration

      for labour will be so firml y established , and so efficientl y supported , as to insure to all its measbers " a fair day ' s wage for a fair day ' s work . " Those prospects are very satisfactory , and cannot fail to be exceedingly cheering to our members , whn , knowing tbat the want of a medium of mediation End influence has often proved a source of great injury to many trades and individuals , and even to local communities , misunderstandings and disputes arc ever likely to occur between master and workmen , and not unfrequently are they atimled with feelings which prevent either party from taking a calm and dispassionate view cf the matter l *' '

      or proposing terms wlr ch a disinterested party would consider to be fair and equitable . While there was no board of mediation to take such matters up , by inquirin g into tbe grnutids of difference , proposing terms of reconciliation of a fair and equitable character , and end ? avourinjr to bring the parties to a correct understanding , they were left to be determined by time and chance , and , generally , both parties were sufferers . Now , as soon as such cases occur with any of our Association ' s members , it becomes our legitimate business to make all :

      necessary inquiry mto the real merits of the matters in dispute , and to propose terms of conciliation accordingly . The many cases we have already successfull y conciliated to tbe satisfaction of both parties , must be regarded as proof of the interest we fake in effecting negotiations only on terms that are likely to give entire satisfaction to tbe aggrieved party , and such as reason and truth will sup . port ; and , consequentl y , which are likely to prove tbe most lasting and satisfactory . But if even either party should entertain a secret selfish wish for an oppositedecision , more in accordance with tbeir own interests , and regardlets of reason and truth , they will not openl y avow such a feeling . However im .

      properly such persons mi ght he disposed to act , so long as tbeir conduct was unobserved b y any but tbe persons , who weie sufferers b y their injustice , there are few , indeed , who are so utterl y destitute of shame as to defend unjust proceedings while the public are cognisant of their existence . For all the purposes , therefore , of effecting reasonable , equitable and satisfactory mediation between masters and workmen of any business or in any part of the country , our Association has already proved and established its disposition and ability , aiid every day its influence is becoming stronger . The public have

      given it a character , which its members will see it is tbeir duty and interest to support . That character has been principally acquired during the year now terminating . The executive officers have during the year exerted their utmost efforts to discharge faithfully the trust committed to their care , and to prove themselves worth y of the confidence reposed in them . How far their proceedings have been satisfactory to the members of the Association throughout the country , the members themselves are best able to judge , and they will shortly have an opportunity of giving expression to the opinions they

      entertain . In conclusion , we would again remind our membcrs of the duty which we have on former occasions pointed out for each and all of them to perform whenever and wherever opportunity offers , viz—directing the attention of tbeir nei ghbours , friends , and fellow-workmen of the existence and efficiency of the Association as an institution which is founded for the specific purpose of benefiting the working classes , by promoting the emancipation of industry , securing an equitable compensation for labour , and employing suiplus labour , which objects all working men arc deeply interested in ; and as the cause concerns all , it requires the interest of all , and therefore we ardentl y recommend tlie subject of the existence , objects and efficiency of our Association to the consideration of all the working classes throughout the length and breadth of the land .

      LEITH . —On Thursday a public meeting of the irades and working classes generally was held at the Temperance-hall , Mr Hollis in the chair . The chairman read the bill calling ihe meeting , and made a few pointed remarks , claiming their polite attention for the lecturer ( Mr Jacobs ) , whom he introduced . Mr Jacobs then entertained his auditory with a feast of facts on union , past , present , and the future progress under the most perfect system of union that can be effected by national association and self-government . He sat down amidst tho most enthusiastic rounds of applause . Th'secretary of the Scotch Union Mason 9 wished to ask , for the benefit of the member * of

      his trade present , how the Association could deal with masons in case of strike , as he said the English Masons' Union had sent out a delegate , who , from the sa : ne pulpit , had preached against the Association , ami told them '' it would do for shoemakers , and tbe like of that , but not for masons . " Mr Jacobs asked what reasons he gave to support such assortions . The secretary replied , ' the English dele-ate said tbe mason ' s was a trade that was employed by and for tbe aristocracy and upper class . " From this , said Mr J ., are we to infer that the working class did not livo in houses ? still , ho thought in Scotland and in parts of England a vast number of persons were employed building houses for the working class , and

      as we get them better wages , they will be able to rent better houses , for times are changing : the workers are getting wiser . Why , Fcargus O'Connor is building a whole town of stone for them in Worcesterahiie , and this ( tbe Trades ) Association has made an offer for 200 acres of mineral land in Scotland ; when the purchase is concluded they will set three hundred miners to work , and build a town on the surface for their families , and euch other as will be wanted with them . ( Tremendous cheers . ) Would not this benefit the masons ? but he thought the masons ' strike it the Houses of Parliament and Nelson ' s monument should have taught them a lcs ? on

      they should not so soon forget ,- ! - " that they wanted the support of all trades . " The seoretary said , he thonnht so too , and thought that if a limited union would do , the delegate need not be sent to Scotland , butstayat homo and unite enly the English workmen . Mr Hollis now showed striking samples of the Association ' s strike manufacture , which made a most striking impressiou on the meeting . A vote of up . proval , and pledging the meeting to use their best exertions in uniting the several trades in Leith with the Association , was carried unanimously . Several invitations were given to the lecturer to visit separate bodies . The usual votes of thanks were passed as above , and the meeting closed .

The usual votes were passed , and the meeting separated . SHEFFIELD .-MrJ . W . Parker reported that he attended a meeting of the boot and ^ oemakm at tlie Grey Horse , High-street , on Tuesday , % April Kith . He entered into the usual explanations in reference to tho working of the Association , &c , which gave much fatisCaotion .

These men weve sentenced to thvse months' imprisonment . The trades appealed against the deoision . Tho result of the appeal has been , that the conviction is quashed , and the men set ;\ t liberty .

Mr Kobson reported he had been to Oxford at the request of the shoemakers of that town .

      TUADEy MOVEMENTS . LABOUR 1 ? Tne \ V YORK . ( From the New York Tribune . ) TUB CLOCKMAKEttS . Although Mr Samuel Slick wid a very good story , and w . -w in other respects a wertliy and companionable man , he whs not much of a clockiuaker . This ig a branch of business about which a great deal is said and a very little generally known . The follow , ing / nets have been furnishi d us by a Yankee operator from Connecticut , who is considerable cf a clock ' case 'himself , and is familiar with the business in all its details . The number of clocks manufactured in this

      conntry is very great , and the improvements m the manufacture of the article introduced during the last few years have materially reduced the pricf . ns well as the wages of ttp . operatives . Connecticut , we believe the only sfnto in which clock ' movements ' aru made . Bat thr-ro are ' many shops all over the North whore the eases are manufactured . Hiere are about twenty of these in this city . The business thus consists of two distir-ct brancl . es : the cast-maker sell * his eases to tho ' movement' maker , or buys of hita the movements , and puts them ia himself . * Formerly the wheels fnr brass docks were cast , then turned :. nd smoothed with great labour ; now the brass conic rolled in plates of tho proper thick , ness fur the different wheels , and is pressed out—one motion « t the press beine s . fficient to cut and center the wheel . This saves rnm-li time and .

      money lhere » re quite a nunibi r of firms in Connecticut , that put up ready for nu ' . rket two huudred clocks per day , and they are sold at two dollars to two dullars and fifty cents a-piece , according to quality . Ihe cases ( which are cxtentively manufactured here ) are sold for sixty to seventj-five cents each . Good mahogany and zebra cases , well made and policed , can be bought now for Bix'y-fivo cents-the same quality of article as ivould have cost two dollar * three years ago . The wage * cf workmen in the clock business are poor : &n experienced and tkilful hand cannot get more tb » . one dollar or one dollar and tweiity-five cents per -lay . A creat manv young men and boys work at tlit- liusinets , who receive only from eiiht dollars to nirm . lolkrs tier month .

      The movement or run-. ltig part of clocks can now bu bought for less thnti one dollar apiece—three vea ^ . ago they were worth 2 dollars and 50 cents . i he clocks were former y sold at the south , bringing from twenty-five do ! ars to a hundred dollars a-piece ; but of late yfa-s the Southerner ? , either more kfiowinp or less flusi ; , purchase vcrv few , and the univer . < ai Yankee na'lon has been for some time extensively engaged in M'fp ]) ing Great Britain with ' improved patent bra ^ <• ocks . ' Great ntimbersare also sent to the Wqh Jidia Islands , and more to China . Nearly all th ; u : ¦ . e made are now sent out of the country .

      REVERSE OF FORTUNE , DEATH OF A LADY FROM ALLEGED DESTITUTION .

      On Wednesday Mr Wakley held an inquest at tho University Colics : *! Hospital on the body of a female , supposed about CO years of age , named Lyiiia Ann Duwnes , whoso death took place under the following circumstances . Thomas Delany , police-copstable 230 S , deposed that on Sunday night , about twelve o ' clock , he was on duty in Seymour-street Kueton-square , when he was sent for by the landlord of the Coronation publichouse , and informed that there was a woman in his tap-rosru he feartd dying . Witness went there , and found deceased lying on enc of the benches in an apparently dying state . The landlord said she came in about ten o ' clock , and asked for half a pint of porter made hot , which she took with her into the

      tap-room . W itness procured assistance , and brought deceased to that hospital , where stimulant * were administered . She was insensible at the time , but rallied sufficiently to state that she lived in Johnson-Btreet , Somcrs Town , but again relapsed into a state of insensibility , and died in an hour alter . She wjs in a ftinhtiully emaciated and filth y condition , Mr Francis Cook , of Johnson-street , Somere Town * said the deceased had occupied one of the top rooms of hia house lor four years , for which she paid 2 a per week quarterly . She was an eccentric character , and no human being had ever entered her apart ment but herself , until since her death , and from documents he had found , there was no doubt she had been highly connected . Among them were receipted bills made out in the deceased ' s name , to the amount

      of £ 23 , 000 . One bill was for post-horses at a guinea per day , another £ 100 for garden seeds ; but tbe most important were legal documents , showing tbat the deceased had been tlie defendant in a Chancery suit , and that by an adverse decision of the Court she had been entirely deprived ef very large estates in Northamptonshire . Another bill showed she had paid four guineas and a half for a white silk bonnet .

      CWOUAN . — Dl&CHARGK OF LABOURERS . — The greatest consternation prevailed in this place on Saturday and Sunday , in consequence ot the stoppage of the relief works throughout the entire barony if Garrycaatle , on Saturday morning , and it waB apprehended that the n . ost dreadful results would ensue from such an injudicious proceeding . Matters were prevented coming to a fearful crisis ; but it was only by setting all the labourers tbat had been dismissed to work a » ain on Monday . It appears that on l ' riday , the 9 th inst ; , an extraordinary presentment sessions was to have been held at Belmount . for the barony of Garrycnstle ; hit uot a single mootstrate or gtntltman attended to constitute court

      a or adjourn the aessions to a future daj , as the Act of Parliament allows . It followed , as a matter of course , tnat the business of the day was a complete blank ; nothing could be done , as ' those legally entitled to conduct the proceedings did not appear , altheugh anxiously expected by an immense concourse oi people , who crowded the Sessions ilousa and its environs . Saturday morning csme , and with it a general order from the engineer in charge tor the Btoppage of all the works in the entire barony . This course was forced upon tlie engineer in consequence of the money granted at former sessions being fully expended , and in some cases overdrawn , to continue the works . The dismissed labourers

      were to be seen in-ronps , some wondering what was next to be done to them , others openly declaring that they had resolved upon doing something for themselves , and that neithor tuey nor their families should starve while there was beel and mutton in the parish , even though they should butcher it for themselves , were they driven to it . On Sunday it was whispered that matters were assuming a fright * ful aspect indeed ; the laboureis had determined upon a simultaneous outbreak through the barony , to wreak their reng « ance upon the heads of thoao who were the means of throwing them out of employnieBt-the residences of the gentry were to be attached , sacked , and burned destruction ami vio » lence ot every sbapc renottod to .
