Ah , yes—and this is no fancy ikescb ! Such scenes ss this met my view ia many a psriEu—nay , in almost evttj viU&ga through which I passed . The eonntrj is half depopulated .

      as extensively as ever , but saeb ., I am eorry ta tf . y , is not the fact . Many of the poor paople could not pet ssed sufficient to plant , according ( o their wishes , whilst aany of those , '"ho might escore seed enough , were afraid ta set them in large qaftntitifig , dreading a recur reaco of tha last two or three yasrj" failures .

On the whole , there iagood ground t 9 hope th 3 t tho potato will sgein flanrish in Ireland , and that such of the peasantry , 53 may be left on the ssii , will no raoro sun r tie horrori of hunger , to which they haTa b-jen expjjtd for the last three yi'srs .

      But , in other rejpECts , the condition of Ireland is ' meniiicg v . orss' every hour . To use their own ernphatio lan ^ aig ? , the people now ' hare nothing ! ' AH is gone ! Cattle , iwine , poultry , all ' seised on , ' canted' for rent , ' or said to buy provision , or stolen and eaten up by those more wretched and more daring than ths original proprietors .

      THE REIGN OF TERROR . "A Special ! A Special ! JSfy Klogdom tor a Special !" When the reader remembers the importance that the forlorn Richard attached to the possession of " a Horse / ' when he exclaimed , " A Horse ! A Horse ! My Kingdom for a Horse ! " he can well imagine the Queen of Englandj on'the 10 th of April , whose " Crown and Dignity " was supposed to depend upon the loyalty of the " Specials /'—exclaiming , "A Special ! A Sp-clul ! Hv Kingdom for a Special !"

      On that fatal day , when the weakness caused by the corruption of her Government , compelled not only the British People , but Foreign States , to believe that England was a nest of traitors , ready to rebel against their Sovereign , to sack the Palace , and destroy her life—on that fatal day the Whigs proclaimed a war of the rich against the poor ; they have armed class against class , and , in their weakness , rely upon the falsely-created terror of their foes , to preserve them in power . While England boasts of being at peace with the world—in its present state of

      convulsion—her Ministers have embroiled her in domestic war . The People , led by their teaching , and by them taught the power that the Constitution conferred upon all , have sought their rights pointed out by that Constitution ; they have humbly petitioned , and theiv Petition—made obscene ; by Policemen , by Excisemen , by Pensioners , by Spies , and hired traitors—has been scoffed at by Parliament . They have assembled , according to the Constitution , to pray Her Majesty to

      dismiss Her Ministers , and they have been bludgeoned and dispersed by brute force . They have spoken in the language taught to them by Whigs and Free Traders , and they have been persecuted by that law which Whigs and Free Traders relied upon as their protection . They have said , " that Taxation without Representation is tyranny , and should be resisted , " as taught by the Whigs—the Whigs who now say , that the mere threat of resistance is Felony , and that the Felon should be transported .

      The Free Traders have headed their articles with " Bread or Blood : " their principal organ , the " Morning Chronicle , '' reminding the wives of those win opposed Free Trade that ladies' heads were dragged in the gutter aforetime , and that they should be cautious how they resisted the people ' s demand for bread . These are the lessons that the pupils have learned from their teachers seeking power , while the transport and the dungeon are the reward of those pupils for proclaiming their Whig lessons . Butvve would ask our Whig rulers whether , in the present state of Europe ,

      when excitement all but closes the markets of the world against us—when every other country is nettled by our insolent interference , or jealous of our presumed power—in our present financial state , and hi the distracted state of parties , we would ask them if they still hope to preserve the old system of terror , to extract taxes from the feai' 3 of thoSG U'hoSG rights , they tell them , will otherwise be destroyed , and whose properties will be confiscated ? Do they rely upon the profligacy of their Press—upon the bribe-money of the aristocracy—and upon the intrigues of banished kings , ministers , and diplomatists , to whom we have afforded shelter—to destroy the effect of the French Revolution , and . thereby

      wed the people of his country moie strongly than ever to the present system ? Are they aware , that although the people of England may be behind other countries in the art of creating ententes and erecting barricadesthat , nevertheless , the cause of real liberty , and the means of establishing it , and its value , is more liivnly implanted in the English mind than in the mind of any other people of any other country in the world ) and are they yet vain enough to hope to stab the mind which oppression has made national—to shoot that sentiment which persecution has made unanimous—or to bludgeon tiiat opinion which universal suffering has concentrated ? No ; the mind of England , now , is gathered into ono volition—a volition which will be realised in

      spite of a suborned press—of a corrupt government—its spies , informers and armaments ; in spite . of this unholy Trinity of a bribed newspaper , a corrupt Government , and an affrighted aristocracy . The " Times" newspaper , the fears of the aristocracy , and the depression of tradefalsely said to he created by Chartist violence—is now the stock in trade of the

      expiring Whig faction , and but for those appliances and the subtlety of Peel , who is urging them on to that point of destruction from which there will be no hope of retreat , they could not hold office for twenty-four hours . Fear and an empty Exchequer is the tenure upon which they hold . When a complaint is made of the brutality of the police , the lippant Home Secretary extols them for their forbearance , and he is cheered to distraction .

      Chartist violence is held to be the justification for destroying the Constitution , and the Chartists are fancifully told that their cause would better prosper if they confined them selves to a legitimate discussion of their grievances , and the agitation of their political principles . How philosophic—how toleranthow sublime ! Have not the Chartists for now thirteen continuous years discussed their grievances , and agitated their political principles ? And has there been a paper , with one single exception , to proclaim those grievances beyond the limits of

      the Chartist ranks i On the contrary , have not Chartist meetings boon scoffed at as insignificant and unworthy of notice ; and their petitions mocked , until the Chartists assumed a bolder front—until at length , as we prophecied , the silence of the Press would make-Chartism one day appear as a monster to those who doubted , its very existence ? and that , instead of being met in its progress by reason , and timely and prudent concessions , at last it should be met in its giant strength by force , until at length not only is the " open and advised speaking ' of the hungry and the destitute designated and punished as felony , but the Whig

      Government hopes to base its tenure upon popular silence , by the total suppression of public opinion . Like cowards , they are brave where there is no danger—they are crouching where they dread resistance . They dared not interfere with the gathering of the whole popu-Jafcion of Sheffield and its district , notwithstanding the remonstrance of the magistrates ; while upon Wednesday they showed their vigour by occupying . the town of Loughborough and the railway station with police , specials , and dragoons . This is vigour , but Sheffield was cowardice ; and yet they presume to withhold the legitimate rights of the people by armed force * With an empty Exchequer , and declining Government hopes to base its tenure upon 1 ~_ «!!«_„ - 1 a . 1- « iAin 1 MtnnwAooinn r \ f

      trade . They imagine that the aristocracy and the middle classes will still furnish the means of perpetuating a civil war , that an incompetent ministry may live up on its fruits ; while they unwittingly and tyrannically throw every obstacle in the way of the poor to release themselves from poverty , by becoming purchasers and cultivators of the soil . And even this they seek to do by a conspiracy of the darkest , the blackest , and the most hellish nature , but in that they will not only be foiled , but exposed . They were told . in the House of Commons that the effect of the " Gagging Bill" would be the establishment of clubs and secret

      societies , and we now warn them that the suppression of public meetings and of public opinion , will be the means of creating a state of things which the best friends of the popular cause and freedom will not be able to resist . They may make martyrs and felons , but from every drop of the martyr s blood , and from every sigh of the felon s heart , will spring ten thousand patriots to avenge the martyr ' s death and the felon ' s sigh .

      Is not every man of common sense in the kingdom , aware that the Times newspaper is hired to get up those emeutes , for the purpose of affrighting the enemies of government ; while the Chronicle , the quondam advocate of Free Trade and of Liberalism , and the propaunder of Colonel Mazzaroni ' s system of street warfare , is nibbling with its decayed teeth at the fortress of Whiggery , in the hope

      of preparing the country for the restoration of Peel to power . We know not what " Ready Keckoner '' this " fascinating financier " may be prepared with to replenish the exhausted excheauer . We know not what further extension of Free Trade he may be prepared to recommend ; but this we do know , that if it is not Free Trade in politics , he will find that the genius of the age is resistless , and has gone beyond him .

      _ As we predicted , thirteen years ago , the bidding between the auctioneers , Peel and Russell , has commenced , and Russell , in the true spirit of competition , has put it up ' at any price , " and " as low as you please , gentlemen ; " the abolition of the ASSESSED TAX PAYING CLAUSES inflicted by the Reform Bill — not the rate-paying clauses , which would be a benefit to the poor voter ; but

      the tax-paying clauses which will be a benefit to the rich voter , and will press hardly upon the non-voter , as he will have to make good the defalcation in the Exchequer consequent upon this boon to the favoured class . In conclusion , we would again warn the Whi gs not to goad the people into resistance and then torture them because they do resist ; we would remind them of the truisms and the follies of their leader .

      When Lord John Russell proposed his J w Bill he said , " that those who bore the burdens should sharejthe honours of the state . " In glorifying himself and congratulating the country on the 10 th of April , he said , '' that the people to a man were ready to rally around their Queen and the constitution . ' In supporting the Alien Bill , he declared "that the English working classes were loyal to a man . ' What , then , will foreign nations , who have achieved all the reforms that the English people look for , say to the denial of those rights to so loyal a people , who are ready to rally round the Queen and the constitution ?

      He threatened the Irish people with resisting Repeal in " the field of battle . ' ' He advocated the " Gagging Bill , " as necessary to suppress sedition and prevent treason in Ireland , and when its first effect was evident in a temporary lull of politics and sedition , he turned with a sneer to his backers , and , as if in lamentation and sorrow , thriving best upon sedition and treason , he said , tauntingly and contemptuously , that since the en actment of the measure the accounts of sedition and treason from Ireland were "VAPID

      and UNINTERESTING , " » FLAT , STALE and UNPROFITABLE : " as though the real object of the minister of England was to goad the Irish people into rebellion , as he mocked them in the House of Commons when his measure failed to produce the anticipated result . But we warn the noble lord of the folly of those undignified taunts , and yet secure threats . We tell him that the trodden worm may turn— " that the generous soul forgives an insult , but never pardons a contempt' '— "that the Irish people do not acknowledge his

      dominion , " and let him beware how he tempts them to rid themselves of it in the " battle field . ' ' While , as for the English Chartists , he may rest assured that neither the " Times , " the bludgeon , nor the bayonet—the fears of one class , nor the presumption of the other—can much longer withhold from the English people those rights which are now becoming the basis of the Constitution of all the other countries of Europe ; and let those who dread the result of those measures bear in mind that the ignorance of the Labour Question has caused distraction abroad , in the first instance , and has led to reaction ; while ' the English mind is

      fully prepared upon a principle — not of plunder and spoliation , of idleness , dissipation , anil dlS 3 Olution- ~ but that they are prepared to live in the sweat of their own brow , making the rich richer , and the poor rich ; making idleness a crime , when the Labour field is open ; nnd this , we believe , they are determined to accomplish , and , in its accomplishment , they shall have our best , our every , our incessant , and untiring co-operation , in spite of the " Times , " the Whigs , and their bludgeons ; and again we caution them not to tamper with a starving people , as , " Hunger , " we are told , " will break through stone walls .

      starvations—the blood recoils when we find 3 prince , a luxurious hierarchy , and professing philanthropists , in the face of these no torious facts , still urg-jng- Emigration as the last means of salvation . But these may be said to be casualties—untoward events—events which frequently happen to other cargoes as well as human beings—events that could not be provided against . This argument , however , can no longer be quoted by the philanthropist ; , 13 , in Wednesday ' s "Times , " we find a letter , signed " Aliquis , ' actually recommending the transportation of the English people in shi ps of war that have been condemned to be broken

      up ! ' { his writer , like most of the writers ia the " Times , " who scribble hurriedly in the cockloft , would lead us to suppose that the emigrants would be transported in ships that are already broken up ; but being" decipherers of newspaper hieroglyphics , we gather hig meaning from his mumping , and give him the benefit of the most humane construction of his abstruse sentence . But what will the reader think of committing human beings to a condemned vessel , not fit to carry guns , and re-, commending that one thousand emigrantsbesides the necessary crew—should be stowed away in this floating pest-house ?

      Is it not monstrous that this doctrine should be preached by idle non . producers to indus « trious producers ? h it not monstrous that the bone , the muscle , and the sinew of this country , should pine , and wither , and decay , while millions } of dross are hoarded in our bank as the fictitious emblem that is supposed to represent the commercial wealth and peculation of the country ? Those objections only refer to the dangers of a voyage , while to them we . may add the despondency , the destroyed hope , and disappointment , of those who are allured by the anticipation of immediate and remunerative employment , of comfort , contentment , and happiness , when the slaves shall reach the promised land . Who cares for him .

      —who cares for his wife and little children , — the moment they set foot upon the deck of the condemned cell ? And is not every man of common sense aware , . that the humanity of these philanthropists is measured by the calculations of the actuary , showing the profit between the expense of transportation , and the amount of poor rates that it would require to sustain them at home . But our doctrine is , that when God ' s ordinances shall have been fulfilled , —when the lordly oak that presses hardly upon the means of subsistence shall be levelled , —when the wild

      and ithe heather , the wilderness and the barren spots , the race course and unproductive common , shall be subdued to man ' s purposes—" when the pampered war-horse and surplus pleasure steed shall cease to press hardly upon . the means of subsistence—then , if the English , people shall be an over-population for the English land , we , in common with others , will cheerfully draw lots and take our chance of finding- a home in other regions : but so long as we see the profits of one class measured by the destitution of another—and so long as we see

      sou enough to give remunerative employment to all—we will hold fast by the principle of God ' s economy , believing in our souls that he has never created a mouth without creating wherewithal to put into it , earned by the sweat of the parent ' s brow , until his offspring is capable of maintaining ^ himself , and also his parent in old age . That ia divine political economy , and that is what is meant by the command to " Honour thy father and . . thy mother ; " it means , that as thy father and thy mother sustained thee in weakness and in

      infancy , thou shalt be the prop of their old age , and support them in return . That is what is meant by God ' s injunction to the husbandman , when he says , " Thou shalt not reap all the corners of thy field , neither shalt thou gather . ill the grapes of thy vineyard , thou shalt leave them for the stranger , the widow , and the orphan . " This was a system of Communism propounded by the Creator , when he intended that his children should be members of the same family , all equal in his sight , and all partakers of his gifts j and until those Holy ordinances are religiously carried out , the terms

      LIBERTY , EQUALITY AND FHATEItNITY , are a " mockery , " " a delusion , " and a " snare . ' * Emancipation was a byword ; agitation was the means of its accomplishment recommended by the Marquis of Anglesea . " PEACE , RETRENCHMExNT , AND REFORM , " was the next bubble ; then HIGH WAGES , CHEAP BREAD , AND PLENTY TO DO , and now comes .

      libert y ; fraternity , equality ; while those , whose courage forced the adop tion of the unmeaning motto upon the aristo cracy and shopkeepers of Paris , are now par taking of the literal meaning ef these inspir ing words in

      THE SWORD , THE MUSKET , AND THE BAYONET . Thus we show that all those rallying cries have failed to produce enough of potatoes for the starving Irish—enough of bread for the starving English—or enough of work for the starving French . And with these damning facts before us , whereby we incontestibly prove that fools and | dupes have been gulled by some " wilW-the-wisp , " got up by designing } factions , are we now to adopt another Trinity of delusion—the greatest that has been yet propounded—the cuckoo cry of

      EMIGRATE ! EMIGRATE ! EMIGRATE ? Will any man emigrate from choice . and is it just that he should emigrate from coercion ? Is the poor man to break up his humble home and diag his family to the condemned hulk , to brave the dangers of the deep and rel y ujum the philanthropy of those who starved him » t home to secure a happy home for him abroad , torn from his friends—estranged from his native land—a houseless wanderer—an o utcast

      and an outlaw—elected by favour and by choice to be a consumer of the produce of his brother English slaves , produce " while they themselves are starving ? ls he , we ask , to be placed in this situation while the land of his birth , upon whie' * his God commanded him to live in tiie sweat of hia own brow , is calling for his industry , and is ready , in return , to yield its abumiance , whereby he may live in the laud ot fl | s

      THE FRATERNAL DEMOCRATS TO THE DEMOCRATS OF GREAT BRITAIN . 'Equalitt , Liberty , Fraternity . ' Brethren , There are truths which , like the fertilising streams of earth , instruct and benefit mankind in the ratio of their circulation . As the flowing streams gather and impart in their course , ths elements which

      minister to vegetable life and luxuriance , so truths flowing between men conduce to tbat moral growth , which is at once ^ the essence and beneficence of life . Not the ieast sacred of these truths are those ^ hi ch express tbat when one member of the social body is attacked , the whole are outraged , ' and 1 that he who permits oppression , shares the crime . ' Ob , that these truths were as readily acted upon as they are tacitly subscribed to ! Then , indeed , ¦ would tyrants tremble , ere they outraged the rights , or trampled upon the dignity of men .

      Tlie recognition and realisation of these frufbs arc sacred duties . To the performance of these duties vre exhort yau . We invoke your sympathetic aid for those of your friends , who have becjnie martyrs to their patriotism , aud victims of class misrule . As you love liberty and hate oppression , we entreat you to render that pecuniary assistance to your persecuted friends aiirt their families , which the necessity of the case and your sense of duty alike dic a'e . To the sufferings of imprisonment must not be added the mortification of llie people ' s callousness . To the torments arising from the deprivation of personal liberty must not be added the consciousness of those resulting from family privations . Therefore , fellow democrats , we exhort you to contribute , according to your means , for tbe defence of your advocates , the maintenance of their families , aud the honour of the cause in which we are all

      engaged . While circumstances do not admit of our con . tribuling as an organised body , individually and as members of the Chartist party , we are performing our share of the duty we have appealed to you lo discharge . The Committee expect that every member of this Association , in town and country , will . consider it his bounden duty both to contribute to tbe Defence Fund , and obtain the contributions of
