      THE REFUGEES . . TO THB READERS OF THE SOUTHERN STAR . About iour months since ibere arrived in London horn the continent , more than eighty Refugees , many of whom were in good positions in their native laud , and took part as officers and soldiers under the noble-minded patriots , Kossnth , Bern , Dembinski , and others , in the great and unequal straggle for the independence of Hungary . Others gave their aid under the brave Garibaldi and Mazzini in defence of the rights of the llonian

      Citizens . Adverse circumstances compelled these patriotic men to lake refuge in Switzerland , Ironi which place , while enjoying the rights of hospitality so jus ;] y due to them for their exertions in the cau = e of Universal Liberty , they were , by the machinations of the Northern Powers , forced to leave their temporary home , and take refuge in England . Eere they have hitherto eked out a truly miserable existence , scarcely fit for malefactors expiating the penalties of their crimes , much less for men who left tLeir homes and every endearing tie in the cause of freedom .

      A committee of operatives , at ihe wish of the Refugees , endeavoured to alleviate the misery in which they were placed , and by dint of great exertions they succeeded in renting a temporary building capable of containing sixty persons : the situation is not such as the committee could wish , but the most rigid economy has necessarily been studied , Offing to the small amount of money at their disposal ; for the support has been much more limited than could have been expected , considering the sympaiLy these noble , but unfortunate men , deserve at enr hands in consideration of their devotion to the caase of Liberty .

      But the hagRard looks , miserable accommodation , scanty clothing and insufficient food which thej silently endure , and the fact staring us in the face of ons officer recently dead and several others ill , u would be culpable in us to lunger defer this appeal to those who cheered the efforts of Kossnth , Bem , and K ' apka , and admired the energies of Garibaldi and Mazzini . Trusting this appeal to yonr assisticce will net be made m vain , the smallest contributions will be thankfully received , to aid us in our endeavours to improve their condition until they are acquainted wi ; h our language and can do something to ma ntaia themselves , or are enabled to return to their aasive land , doubly dear to the exile .

A few Kefngees who speak the English language take part in the CanvAittee , and the , whole business is opea to any friend who may please to pay a visit to the Jtotarnal Home .

OweD ' and Messrt ; linton and nSr * i . APollonic Society opened the pro-. eettingg by executing S 6 me music appropr iate to i ^ l Watsos then addressed the meeting , and said , tiiat he considered it an especial duty to be present to celebrate the memory of one of the most famous champions of the human race . He considered it the more important , because those who lived by opposing the best interests of the human race had united in misrepresenting and maligning his character . Aristocrats and priests , of every denomination , had endeavoured to throw odium on his i mum nin m mL ^ i : ' - THOMAS PAIN'V . . f / AX -v *

      memory . The speaker then read various extracts from Paine ' s writings , showing that these classes were naturally opposed to him , because his writings and their influence were entirely opposed to them . Iu concluding , he called upon all those who admired Paine's principles , to go forth as missionaries , and spread them abroad until Boyalism aud Priestcraft were for ever abolished . Mr . Watson sat down loudly cheered . The Apollonic Society then gave the People ' s Anthem .

      Mr . Holtoaeb spoke to the following sentiment , " The Devclopement of Reason in Politics and Religion . " Their Chairman had told them the reason why . they should venerate the memory of Paine , and it cameparticnlarlyapprdpriatefromhim who had done so much towards spreading a knowledge of the writings of Paine . Much had been said about the vulgarity of the writings of Paine ; but no man who was so bitterly opposed had ever come out of the conflict so pure as he had done , from ; the imputation of violent or abusive Iangunge . He saw that it was impossible that they could enjoy political freedom whilst Priestcraft prodominatcil . If the priest could call upon them to surrender a portion of their reason and liberty into

      his hands , the monarch could oall upon them . to surrender the whole . It was because Paine taught this so cogently , and thereby disquieted both ' priests and thrones throughout the world , that he was so bitterly maligned . Paine gave the inspiration of freedom to a great nation . 'Washington could sever have achieved the freedom of America with the sword , if Paine had not prepared their minds with the pen . That was a greater achievement than any priest ever had , or he feared ever would , achieve . Paine made reason equally as popular in religion as in politics . He believed that the great end of political reformation was the establishment of republicanism , and the end of relirious reformation the establishment of rationalism .

      If reason was not an infallible guide , it was at least the best with which humanity was furnished They must throw off their allegiance to that false theology which was supported only by those who wished to throw dust in their eyes , because they were interested in maintaining the present system . Mr . Holyoake then showed that Paine sacrificed his fame and popularity by assailing the priestcraftthat he had so long bewildered the senses of mankind , aud that by this sacrifice he had smoothed the way for the reformers of the present day . Mr . AtEXiXBER Campbell also spoke to this , sentiment . He had long attended meetings in commemoration of that event , and on every fresh occasion he saw that many new adherents were added to the church of reason . There was as much inconsistency

      to be found in the present system of society as Paine ever exposed in the system of theology . Paine exposed both these errors ; he shewed them , by facts and reason , that these errors were productive of misery to the bulk of the human race . Reason was an agent far mightier than physical power—they must learn to hear with the errors of each other . So two men could possibly think exactly alike ; this knowledge should give them eharitv for the opinions of others , and teach them to combat what they believed to be errors by reason alone , ever bearing in mind the great fact , that the character of man was formed for him by the age in which he lived , and the circumstances in which he was placed . The Singers then gave Thomas Cooper ' s Cbarti 4 chant in first rate stvle .

      Mr . Robert Coopeb , of Manchester , responded to the next sentiment as follows : — " The immortal Thomas Paine . May his memory be ever held in happy remembrance , and his noble example stimulate the efforts of all present and future Reformers . " He was not one of thO 3 e who , while they indorsed the political sentimeats of Thomas Paine ignored his theological doctrines . He believed that they should not only have the "Rights of Man , " but also the "Age of Reason ; " both must be contemporaneous . Paine saw that they must not only work for themselves , but also think for themselves . Kingcraft and Priestcraft were both despots , nursed

      in the same cradle , pursuing the samebloody policy ; but , thauks to the spread of reason , they were row getting in their dotage , and could only stalk abroad on the crazy crutches of the law . Both must die together aud be buried in the same tomb . It required greater courage to face the priest in his den than to brave the tyrant in his lair . Paine dared both , and met with their united rage . "When he dared to assault the priests many of his political friends deserted him ; even George 'Washington left him , almost forgotten , to languish in a French prison . For this courage and true philosophy Paine was worthy the honour now awarded to him . The speaker concluded a long and eloquent address amid loud cheers .

      Mr . Turlei ( Sartor ) also supported this sentiment . Mr . E . Jones , who was received with immense applause , said , they were met to commemorate more than a man—they were met to celebrate a great thought—an eternal truth , " The rights of man : " they were celebrating not the past , but that which never had been " The age of reason . " Yet this man , while he lived , was maligned , oppressed , anddispised ; but thePariah of the Past had become the Suint of the present . Honour was due to Paine as the great pioneer of freedom . What had he not done for America , by writing his Common Sense ? Had he not shown them that the British

      Government , and not the people of America , were the rebels ? That they must cease to act on the defensive , and commence the aggressive , until they had banished tyranny from their shores ? For the last COO years a rebellion had been going on , but the wrong party had been designated as rebels . It was Kings , Peers , and Priests , who were the rebels . The people were the legitimate sovereigns . " When Paine gave that lesson to the Americans he gave it also to us , and to all time . He was the apostle of mind , and also the champion of force . Democracy had not yet been triumphant , because , hitherto , when the people possessed the force they had been de-titute of the knowledge , and when they possessed the knowledge thev were destitute of the

      force—knowledge alone was not power , it must be combined with force . If they asked a landlord to define a man , he would tell them he was a serf , useful only to tiil the fields , and to procure luxuries for him . The manufacturer would say he was a machine to create wealth . The lawyer would define him as a fool , who quarrelled with his brothers , that they might live by pocketing the fee ? . The soldier would say , he was a tool to cut men ' s throats . The parson , that he was a sort of human tithe pig ; and Lord John Russell would tell them that he was a human piano , on which he could play the tune of " Anti Popery . " ( Cheers . ) Paine was also the apostle of free thoughts as well as free laws , and for his exertions- in ' defence of that they owed him a debt which they would never lie able to repav . ne { Mr . Jones ) did

      not agree with many of the thelosrical doctrines of Paine . He professed himself to be a Christian , though not belonging to the Christianity of the priests . He took the Bible in his hand ai the weapon to attack the priests ; and if its moral common sense doctrines were properly understood and carried out , not a priest would be able to show his face on the morrow . Paine , and other great reformers , had created a new mind ; and it was now tueir province to direct that mind . A new era had dawned upon them—an era when all the nioneycban « cr 3 would be driven from the Temple of the World . Eighteen hundred years ago , a voice in Judea h ? d proclaimed Equality and Fraternity to the world . Ten thousand voices now proclaimed the same doctrine : and they needed only union to bring about its reign .

      Mr . S . Ktdd responded to "The Press—May us brightest rays penetrate the entire globe , to font a ^ d warm . Humanity in on © Sympathetic and Universal Brotherhood . " They had heard that evening the estimate given by Dr . Cummiug of the character of Paine . He would quote from a better critic , a greater scholar , a more remarkable man . than Dr . Cumming . Walter Savage Landor —a name second to none in this country , and few ia this a ^ e wrote that " Thoma 3 Paine was the greatest thinker of the day , and one of the noblest men produced by any age . " The eulogism from Landor , the friend and companion of Byron , the

      acquaimanre of Shelley , the associate of Southey , a wan better fitted than almost any other man to judge of the minds of those who preceded him , was moie than a set off against the abuse of Dr . Cumrring ; and he was much mistaken , if posterity did not endorse the sentiments of _ Landor when Cummin a wjis unknown and his opinion forgotten . Xo name cculdl > e more justly associated with the liberty of the press than that of Paine ; no man had done more in defence of that great principle , " That true liberty could only exist where free-born men , in advlsine the people , could speak or write freelv . " John . Milton , whose exertions for a free

As far as mere printing was concerned , the hardihood of a -few men had forced the government to allowjhem a tolerable share of the liberty of the press .

But the most valuable of all these movements was that for an untaxed press ; unless they could spread abroad unfettered knowledge , it would be worse than usless to preach the doctrines of equality and fraternity . It was the ground work of all civilisation , the foundation of the temple of free thought . Establish the perfect freedom of the press , and they would raise up the " Age of Reason , " which was essential to the

      attainment of the " Rights of Man ; " in the words of Paine , " the world would then be their country , and to do good their religion . " Mr . Kydd then concluded a brilliant speech , which was listened to with breathless attention ; amid great applauBe . Mr . Moore abo ably supported tho sentiment . The Marseillaise Hymn wasthen given , and the proceedings closed by a short address from the Chaibman ; who stated that the crowded state of the hall , and the necessity for refusing the admittance of many to the festival , was a convincing proof of the advantage of speedily procuring the erection oi : he proposed Temple of Free Thought , and advised the taking of shares therein .

      — O : SYMPATHY WITH HUNGARY AND POLAND . DEATH OF GENERAL BEM . Qn Tuesday evening , a public meeting was held at the Hall , John-street , Tottenham-court-road . Many distinguished European democrats were present , including Louis Blanc , Landolph Frank , ( who was Attorney-General during the French Provisional Government ) , Carl Schapper , Dr . Tauseman , and a host of other brave and talented men . The meeting was very crowded , aud the speakers were enthusiastically cheered . About half-past eight o ' clock , Carl Schapper was called te the chair , and was loudly cheered Having opened the business of the meeting , he said : —The newspapers told them that General Bern was no Socialist nor ' Red Republican . It was even doubtiul if he was a Republican at all . It

      might be true that Bern had not openly professed himself a Red Republican or a Socialist by words , but hia deeds showed that he was both for when it was necessary to fight for liberty , he was found in the foremost ranks . 'They did not want professions but deeds . Did not the French manikin , Louis Kapoleon , profess to be a Republican and a Socialist ? But as soon as he was elected President he forgot his promises , arid aspired to be Emperor . Bern , who professed nothing , was content with a small salary . . On the field of battle he was distinguished by no epauletts or finery of dress , but was attired as simply as a private soldier . The chairman then gave the history of General Bern ,. showing that during the time he was in the Polish

      Russian army he was twice dismissed the service , three times tried by court-martial , and three times imprisoned ; he was treated by his gaolers with great cruelty ; at length , after four' years' imprisonment , with a broken constitution , be was released from prison , but banished to a small town , where ho lived under the strictest surveillance , employing himself in agricultural pursuits until the breaking out of the Polish Revolution . His gallant services in that struggle were then dilated upon by the- chairman . ¦ When tyranny was successful in Poland , Bern joined the struggle in Portugal for liberty . He was commander during the insurrection in Vienna , and had it not been for the treachery of the middle classes , he would have attacked the Austrians and Croats ,

      and the revolution would have been successful . When all was lost at Vienna , he joined the Hungarian forces ; his gallant conduct in Transylvania was well known to them all ; If all the Hungarian generals had bee . n like him , the Hungarians would not have been defeated . His change of religion had been blamed ; but he was animated by the desire of embattling the Turks with that common enemy of liberty—the Russian despots . By all reports this gallant man , whom the balls and bayonets of the enemy had spared , fell at last by poison . He was dead , but his spirit was still alive , and animating his friends . The revolution was not put down , the storm was yet advancing . The Times informed them that the Russian , Austrian , and ' Prussian nionarchs

      were'determined , in the event of another struggle ,, tpgiye : nq quarter—to show , no mercy ; but if no mercy was shown to theni'they ' would show none to their enemies . ( Tremendous cheers . ) When the last struggle arrived , he trusted that the spirit of Bern would animate all who were engaged in it . their enemies were everywhere plotting to destroy liberty ; they might kill men , but' they could not kill the spirit of the times—it would rise again until victory was achieved , and liberty and happU ness consummated . The Chairman then called on the audience to uncover their heads in memory of the gallant deceased . . This was done in solemn silence . Tho Chairman then said , " May his spirit animate all who fight for liberty ! " and sat down loudlv cheered .

      M . Simost , an Hungarian , who had taken an active part in the late war , addressed the meeting in the Hungarian language , arid was loudly cheered by his countrymen and friends . ' The Chairman tVsen called on Louis Blanc , who was receired with tremendous applause and three rounds of cheers . He addressed the meeting in the French language ; the following is a brief outline of his speech' . —Citizens , we are all met here filled with sympathy for the fate of Bern , and admiration for his character and actions , for the spirit of libort filled his breast and directed all hrs efforts . His career , from the first public act of his life till its close , was one grand struggle for freedom ; first for his beloved Fatherland and , when that was

      useless , then for the surrounding nations . Look at him as the soldier for'Poland , where he acquired the character of the bravest and most slcrtful artillery officer . See his hatred of despotism , which drew upon him the censure and punishment of the Russian tyrant . View him at Vienna , and then torn with admiration to his gallant conduct in Hungary . The press of France and England said that General Bern wa 9 no democrat or Socialist ; was it so ? True his words were not uttered in its behalf , but his sword was drawn in its cause ; he was not t ? uj orator , but the soldier of Republicanism , and the Social Democrats of the continent were met there to-night with their English brethren , to honour his memory . ( Great cheering ) They revered him not

      as the propounder of theories , but as the practical man ; not as the maker of fine promises , but the doer of gallant deeds ; not as the eloquent orator , but as the heroic soldier . ( Loud applause . ) He did not profess much , but his actions proved his sincerity . Had soriie of the loud talkers in France been as true as him , the days of June would haio had a different termination . ( Cheers . ) England , too , would not be where she i * , if all her talkers for fieedom were but actors like- Bern . ( Great applause . ) As a soldier , Bern had been charged with rashness , but it was combined with . a skill and bravery that generally rendered it successful till his name became a tower of strength to ' the sons of progress and a' word of fear to despotic tyrants , till at length , finding that he had escaped their balls

      and' bayonets , they ' sent against him , not the soldier , but the assassin , and he fell , not like a brave man on the field of battle , but poisoned on his hearth . ( Sensation . ) Could , they think of his career without finding their hearts filled with admiration ? His sword was never drawn but in liberty's cause . and never sheathed but "hen its aid would liave been useless . ( Cheers . ) They talked of peace . He ( the speaker ) would say vive la paix , hut he also said vive la justice : until she reigned there could be " no peace '; till then they should require men like the departed hero , Bern ; and , till then , may his spirit fill their hearts and respond in his memorable words—" Pour la Justice etUberte ! Yivela Guerre ! " Louis Blanc spoke in a very impassioned manner , and sat down amid a tumult of applause .

      TUf . Juuan Harket was received with great applause . He commenced by stating , that if the meeting had been announced by placards or advertisement the hall would not have held the thousands who would havo assembled . It would , perhaps , bave been impossible for more to havo entered the Hall than it at present contained ^ but the surrounding streets would . then havo been crowded , and the rascally press-gang would have been compelled to have noticed the meetiag . He was informed by the committee that they had sent invitations to fifteen daily and weekly papers , and only the reporters from the Star and Reynoldds were present . If the meeting had been announced in ¦

      the Slav er other democratic journal , he w assutoit would have been such a meeting as had ssldom been witnessed in that metropolis . That pretended Liberal paper , the Daily Neivs , had not sent a reporter , ^ although they , wece informed that patriots ftom Italy , France , Hungary , and other nations would be present . The ' press was getting wise in its generation . 'W hea . met ; t ings were called to denounce the conduct « f Eayn-. u , tho Tiwtoand other papers not only reportedthair meetings , but also denounced their sen timeats-to their readers throughout Europe ; finding that this course failed to injure them , they n <> w ' chaBiadi tHeir tactics ^ and burked their proceei \ in « 3 ^ They were nv& as Englishmen to de-Wancetha-useof the TOEdfattigner , to adopt the

Many persons , especially omong . the middle asses , were opposed to war on any grounds .- But the despots of Europe had entered into a sacrili-« ious alliance against the people , and it was the duty of the people to enter into a sacred alliance to protect themselves . It was time enouch to talk of

      peace when liberty and justice , should reign . War was at thiitmomjent raging ! A war in which the people alone were sufferers . Look at . Italy , Germany , , and , m fact , the whole of tho continent ; thousands were perishing in their dungeons ; tens of thousands , after , enduring every persecution , were driven into poverty and exile . Look at France , see the heroic Barbes and Blanqui —( loud cheers)—with a host of others languishing in prison . War itself could not inflict greater horrors upon the Democratic party than they were now enduring One man , however popular , could not in these days stop the march of progress . If Napoleoii , with all his genius , could rise from the dead , he would find it impossible to prevent tlib speedy advent of that

      day , when thrones and classes should he for ever abolished . Even supposing that Bern had turned his sword against democracy , he would have been trampled under the feet of the advancing ranks of freedom . It was , with feelings of deli ght that their English friends met face to face the true-hearted , the . glorious Louia Blanc —( tremendous , cheering , waving of hats , &c . ); why did they so hail him ? not because he had a world-wide fame , for men had achieved that who deserved only infamy . ; not because ho had been a member of the , Provisional Government of France ; not becauso ho was a great man in tho common acceptation of that term ; but because he was a true liian ! And though in porson he small

      was , yet ho was a ropresentsitive of the most giant philosoph y in the world . The name of Louis Blanc was identified ¦ more than that of any other , name equally well known to'them with the cause ot Social Progress and the Ri ghts of Labour ; but though -his ' compeers were not so well known , the compliment applied equally to them . There were men in . England professing Chartism , who sneered at Redism . But all the true Democrats were not merely Republicans , but Red Republicans . The 7 adopted the colour of red j not because they were men of blood , but because tho tri-coloured flag had been disgraced by . being bathed in the blood of the people . MivHarney sat down loudly cheered .. ¦ . . ¦ . . .. .

      Dr . Tauseman , of the Radical * Journal , an intimate friend of Bern , and leader of the Austrian Democrats in Vieuna , addressed the meeting with considerable spirit , in his native tongue . . Citizen Shavazkiewiecy , a Polish Refugee , addressed the meeting in . Polish . He was loudly applauded by the Poles present ; Mr . Pkiiik . next addressed the meeting , and stated , that he . was . appointed by tho Fraternal Democrats to express their sympathy on this occasion , and show their belief in tho last words of the

      srallant Blum , " that each drop of his blood would produce fresh martyrsto the cause . " Mr ; Pettie briefly addressed the . brethren of other lands in French , and regretted that , as a working man he could not express the thoughts ; with which his bosom was buruiup , and concluded an eloquent speech by eulogising -the conduot and character of-Gerieral Bern . Dr . FiiAsK , editor of an Austrian journal , and leader of the insurrection at Milan , next addressed the meeting in German , ' with great energy and enthusiasm , which met with a hearty response .

      Mr . T . Bkown and Mr . Bozer expressed the sympathy of the English Democrats , absent and present , with the committee who had got up the meeting , and the Refugees generally . ' : . DivTausemax ( in English ) returned them thanks for the sympathy they had expressed . He dwelt on the manner in which the English people were misrepresented by the press . If they had believed in the Times , as-the exponent .-of the feelings of the Eiiglish people , they should have doubted of . being received with that sympathy and hospitality , wbiob .

      he-was proud to say , had been shown to them ; : He believed that the great heart-of this country had been represented as a great pool ; of selfish aristocracy on the one side , and a great pool 'of cotton manufacturers on the other . But he found , by experience , that the heart of the-people was still sound ; lie had no doubt that the . English peoplo would be found taking part in all the great struggles which were yet to come . They might not fully accomplish their aims during their own existence , but they would leave them as an inheritance to their children-. ( CheerS . ) . ¦ .

      Mr . Kaebbt then proposed a vote of thanks to the Chairman and Committee , which was unanimously carried , with three cheers .

      " Thatw . o are living in a moral metropolis , - a city of the dead , that . in London there- are 12 , 0 . 00 children training in crime , graduating in vice , 3 , 000 persons receivers of stolen property , 4 , 000 are annually committed for criminal offences , 10 , 000 are addicted to gambling , 20 , 000 to beggary , 30 , 000 are living by theft or fraud , that £ 3 , 000 , 000 worth of spirits are annually consumed , that . 23 , 000 persons are annually found hel plessly ' drunk in the streets , that 150 , 000 are habitual gin-drinkers , . and that tho like numbers of both scxe s have abandoned themselves to systematic debauchery and profligacythat

" " That the elite of tho medical profession , backed by the experience of vast i \ urubers of mechanics , artisans ; ami labourers of all kinds , have proved to demonstration , that alcoholic drinka , such as beer , whips , ale , spirits ,-&c , contain nothing of a nutritious kind calculated to give either health or strength to man .

The era of Whig , Tory , or , Radical Politics was fast dying away , and they were coming to the era of liberty and justice ; an union of the good men of all parties must bo effected .

They had been too long . deluded by the aristocracy and clergy .

      NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OI UNITED TRADES . . T . S . Duncombe , Esq ., M . P ., President . Established 1845 . .. ¦ = ' " fiat justiiia . " "If It were possible for tho working dasse 3 , by com-Dining among themselves , to raise , or keep up the general rate of wages , it need hardly be said that this would be a thing not to be punished , but to be welcomed and rejoiced atl Siuabt Mill The progress of . the Association during the last fortnight , has been marked by a renewal of the good faith of working men in the soundness of pur principles , and the nobleness of our . objects . The good offices of our respected secretary with the mariners of Lynn will , no doubt , be recorded with satisfaction to himself and the country . Letters of a very encouraging nature have

      been forwarded to the office from the miners of the North , engine drivers and ' others in the employ of Eailway Directories , lace hands of Nottinghamshire , glass cutters of Stourbridge , &c ., all . requiring the necessary information before giving their assent lo become members ; in addition to which , the harness platers and others of Walsal have joined , by forwarding their adhesion .

      The principles of National unity are fast developing'themselves among the operatives oi this country . They are alive to the important fact , that to be strong , they inust not only be united in principle , but united in action . To defeat the capricious will of reckless competitiouists . and : traffickers . in labour , ' they must unite their energies and power into one common focus , for one common purpose The highest class of skilled labourers are rapidly declining before the dire necessities of the

      poorer-class of artisans . The manly and dignified English labourer is hastening to the verge of continental pauperism , occcasioned in a great measure through the . placid behaviour of tho workman himself . The general desire , —or , I might say , the natural instinct of man —is to advance on the road which leads to happiness ; but , unfortunately , through ignorance , he is led , in many cases , like a bullock to the slaughter house—he fattens himself for the use of others . He does not calculate the

      cost to his family and to his country , when he undertakes to work &r less than the last man empDoyod : it appears sufficient to him that he now earns twolve shillings , where at his less skilled or less dangeroas employment he only earned ten shillings . Why should this war of strife be continuall y at work to destroy and blast the hopes of future generations ? Why should class be set against class because one , either from physical abilities or natural capabilities , earns more than another ? Or , why should the high-paid mechanic look down with scorn and contempt

      upon the weaver * Would it not be more wise and prudent-rinore to the interest of the mechanic—to join with the poor weaver , and assist him to gain a fair price for his labour , and prevent those numerous exactions being made from his "wages ; and thereby prevent him from becoming a rival in his trade or profession ? . This , I think , would be the soundest policy , and the most rational course to pursue . What that cause , is remains , to somo degree , a ' mystery with the' various officers of local Trades ' Societies ,. That there is a perverseness on the part of some there can- bo no question of

      doubt , caused by a want " of thought or a more liberal spirit . There are also men , who are bound by-no rties of brotherhood , who belong to no society—men who leave thoir fates to fate alone . ' Then we have others who are wedded to ideas which associate themselves through life—men who imagine they are all the world , as a u . ite does tho cheeEe , and they cling to those ideas with the greatest pertinacity . These local , or sectional movements , have

      always been maintained at a very great cost , without an efficient power to control their opponents ,, or clearly to-understand the position of their own particular trade , some forty miles away . This does not apply , to all , but it does to numbers ; and , by their apathy , tho masters erect their fortunes . The fatal proofs of these sad disasters are manifest in the late contests between the Engine Drivers on the North . Western , the Eastern Counties , and i other directories , and their superintendents .

      We have also the Compositors of Glasgow , whose interests ought to be identical with those of London , come hero to supersede the whole establishment on the Morning Post , merely ., to suitithe whim and caprice of a few . Had these men been under one code of rules , governed by one body , this innovation would have been impossible ; and still we find them adhering to that which could not prevent a mischief so serious and so detrimental to their owninterests . .

      , Then , we have the importation of Frenchmen to supersede the Typefounders . Why , under a national organisation , they would have been treated' as tho Frenchmen who came to supersede the , Tin-plate Workers of Wblverhampton—viz ., liberally rewarded to go home again . Thus would Caslon have been defeated , as Perry was , to his own discomfit and bur pleasure . . ' ' ' A new campaign against labour will be

      oppressor . CONSPIRACr . -WOLVERHAMPTON . In directing your attention to this subject I do so with much pain , becauso it shows ' still further the necessity of all men cementing themselves together B in one common bond of brotherhood , not sii . SH ^ tbeir Hberties a " persons , from the evil counsels and wily schemes of plotters m general , and particularly those who plot to enslave or degrade . The case which was noticed . last week is one which commands and deserves your best and most serious attention , inasmuch as it unfortunatel y occurs to members of tho local society , which is the chief reason why the anpeal 13 made to the whole to defend theao men against as great a pioce of villany as ever was atto be

      tempted cast upon Englishmen . I havo only to recapitulate the cause to induco every man who is a true Unionist to assist in raising subscriptions for their defence . Most of you are aware that a strike has been going on in Wiverhampton ever since August last-that it ' has been conducted honourably on the part of our association—that it received the sanction of the largest public meeting in the Theatre—that tho persecution in this caso was condemned by the magistrates , who told him he was bound to pay the same price as other manufactnrers-that he has also been condemned in two of the munici pal wards , wlio returned better men instead of him—that tho council itself condemned him by refusing to elect him ah alderman , —yet , amidat- all these righteous condemnations h ' e hastned _ to inveigle men into his snares—he has

      done so from France , and all parts of England ; and when his dapes havo found his promises false , they havo left him . It is chargod on Duffield , Gaunt , and Woodnorth ; that they have assisted in releasing these slaves from bondage ; and this they call a conspiracy to impoverish Mr . Perry ! Is there a working man in England who would not glory in defending thO 3 e who are charged with defending the defenceless ? Whether they havo done so , remains to be seen . Sergeant Allen , Mr . Iluddlestone , and Mr . Kettle , are engaged to prosecute these three men on the 11 th of March , before Justices Talfourd and Pattison . An appeal has been issued by the trade of lYolverhampton , to raise subscriptions to defend them against this long array of legal talent . They hope that the trades will forward them all the assistance they can , immediately , as on that depends the issue of the

      case . Working men of England and Scotland , this new attempt to gag the mind and actions of men must be met with the same moans which are employed to destroy them . The nefarious trickery that ' has been resorted to , first to entrap the slaves , then , the liberator of his victims miist be laid bare to the public gaze . Still these poor men , placed , as they will be , before tho bar of justice to answer the harge , must not be left to themselves . Talent must be employed to meet talent . The value of these bonds must be tested before that tribunal , at which the author of tho mischief wiirtrcmble . Why did not tho prosecutor proceed against them under the combination law ? Why did he not test

      its value ? Because first he feared an ignominious defeat : secondly , ho imagined to grasp with in thecharge not only the local officers of tho Trade Society , but the Committee of the' United Trades Association , as avowed in the justice-room by the solicitor for the prosecution . In that particular , they have failed . . Yet the intent is the same ; tho desire is not so much against these men ( Duffield excepted ) , as it is a gainst the very framework of our ' working men ' s associations . The question is one . which affects all , therefore all should direct their attention ' to the caseand assist in" its'downfall , and the maintenance of their rights and privileges as written in the Cth of George IV ., and expounded by the late Baron llolfe , now Lord Cranworth . The working men ' s charter of social liberty must be

      maintained in all its entirety . This great palladium must not be destroyed or mutilated by any overt acts of those who avow themselves the enemies of working men . If it is lawful for persons to meet together where no violence is used or practised , and determined not to work except upon certain terms , can it then be illegal for others to combine together to persuade them to do so ? It is evident that they did meet together in the presence of Perry himself , and declared they would not work under a certain price . It then becomes a question wheth-r these few drunken men , did not , for the sake ot gain , seek these parties for money to carry out their unanimous ' resolution of having the book price for their labour . If this- was the case , by referring to the Lancaster trials ; we shall find thaf the jury did not deem that a crime . •'•

      The men have now thrown themselves upon the mercy of the public , not so much to defend them- selves as to defend a great principle—a principle winch concerns every working man in England , Ireland , and Scotland ; and shall they be allowed to suffer for the want of contributions ? Let us hope the appeal of the trade will not bo ' in vain . Let the working men in thiscase do their ' utmost . to defend the great principle of association against the machinations of an old . enemy . Let the officesr of every society throughout the country collect subscri ptions at once to de ' endthis case , and forward the same by post-office order or stamps to Henry Rowlands , secretary to the tinplate workers , lied Cow Inn , Dudley-street , Weiverhampton . I am , Sir , on behalf of the Committee , T . Winters .
