Mr Fee wex denied having formed part of the deputation alluded to ; but , being fully satisfied with the answer of the Chancellor of the Exchequer , he withdrew his morion . ( Hear . )
Foheiox Kefugees . —Mr . M . Miiaes moved an address to the Crown for copies of the correspondence between the British government and foreign states respecting the protection afforded to refugees in confirmation of the correspondence already presented . He urged that it was of importance to the character of the late government and to this public that the despatch of Prince Schwarzenberg , in which , it appeared , from the statements published in the newspapers , language of a very strong nature a 9 between two friendl y powers had been used , and the answer which had been given thereto , should be produced . ( Hear . ) The Chancellor of the Excheqobb had already promised his hon . friend that he would lay the correspondence on the table as soon as complete . It was now complete and in course of printing , and would be produced in a few days . Mr . M . Muses considering the answer satisfactory , 'withdrew his motion .
Affairs of Egypt , —Mr . Asdersox moved for a return oi copies of correspondence between the British Ministry and their agents at Constantinople and in Egypt since January , 1850 , relative to the attempted interference of the Porte in the internal administration of Egypt , by depriving the Paoha of the power to inflict oapital punishment , and to construct railways in his own territory . ( Hear , hear . ) He dwelt at length on the deep interest England had in upholding the efforts of the Pacha to improve ami civilise Egypt , and contrasting the security of European life and property in that country , as compared with th « ir insecurity in Turkey , recommended the exercise of British influence to terminate the dispute favourabl y to Egypt . ( Hear . )
The Chancellor of the Exchequer could not accede to the motion . To do so would be to publish information in reference to important negotiations still pending for the settlemeat of the differences between Turkey and Egypt ; but a due regard to the interests of the two states of England , and of the world , would be observed in the negotiations referred to . ( Hear , hear . ) Lord J . Russell stated that though we had guaranteed the treaty under which the Pacha of Egypt held the Pashilic we had not guaranteed the conditions on which the future relations of the Porte and its vassal should subsist . ( Hear hear . ) Any interference , therefore , on our part with either the Porte cr thePacha could only be in the shape of advice given by one friendly power to another . ( Hear , hear . ) He agreed that it would not conduce to the satisfactory termination of the negotiation if the papers asked for were given .
Mr . HtuE , though disapproving of the interference of England in 1839 , thought we were now bound to insist that the conditions of the treaty we then guaranteed should he carried out . ( Hear , hear . ) Mr . M . Moses thought that the parties to the agreement were morally bound to maintain the Pasha in his just and independent authority . At the same time , the Tanzimat , which the Porte desired to introduce into Egypt , had , wherever it had been established in the Turkish " provinces , secured to the people , including the Christian population , a higher degree of good government than they had previously enjoyed , ( near , hear . ) Loas to thb Tows of Essis . —The 0 ' Gorman Mahon
ma-ie an application based on a petition , for a grant and also for a loan secured en the tolls of the town of Ennis , in aid of private subscriptions to enable the town commissioners to carry out the drainage of the district , the works for which had been commenced by the Commissioners of Public Work 3 but no ? completed . His motion was that the Commissioners be directed to carry out the works . Sir C . Wood suggested that the application should be made by a bill . After some conversation the O ' Gohuax M . inox stated that he would bring in a bill on the subject , and withdrew his motion . Mr . He . vi . kt obtained leave to bring in a bill to arrange with foreign powers for the apprehension of deserters from ships . Mr . Fhewex ^ obtained similar leave for a bill to promote the building of cbnrches in benefices now without them , and to prevent the union of benefices beyond a certain value .
The remaining business being disposed of , the house adjourned at hajf-pass eight o ' clock .
WEDNESDAY , March 24 . HOUSE OF COMMOXS . —Protection from Daxgbrob 3 Asuials . —Mr . Feewik , in moving the second reading of this bill , adverted to the public evils , and even injuries , arising from the absence of sufficient , legal control over furious dogs and savage bulls , : md from the enactment against draught dogs not being extended to thegrural districts . The o ' . ject of the bill was to remed y these defects in tbeir .-. T . The Attorney-General doubted whethor the arrangements made in tiiebill to attain the object of his hon . friend were satisfactory . It was not until the animal appeared in pnblic —( a laugh )—that the bill would come into operation , and then there must be two credible witnesses , who were to make oath before a justice . On this the magistrate was to issue a written order to the parish constable , who was to go in pureait of the anhiisl to destroy him , and was to be
entitled to half-a-crown . ( A laugh . ) But the portion of the bill to which he principally objected wa 3 , that when a mad dog appeared abroad the district was to be proclaimed —( aiaugh )—i . nd&li owners of dojrs were to put them " : n mnzsies . ( Linwuter . ) So that if one mad do £ appeared in a neiglil «> nr : - . 9 qd , all other innocent dosrs —( laughter)—by being tied up in jnuzzles , were to be ' deprived " of the protection which nature gave them to defend themselves . ( Laughter . ) He ( the Attorney-Genewl ) would recommend the coarse to be adopted « h \ ch was taken by the Quaker , when he gave a dog a bad name and got him destroyed . He , also , objected to that portion of it relating to bulls-1 ( kughter)—for it appeared to _ him that it would have the effect of producing the very eviThe intended to remedy . In conclusion , he should move that it be read a second " time that day six months . Mr . Spooser defended the bill , and
Mr . Ewart suggested that that part of the bill shonld be alone retained which referred to draught dogs , and that it should be referred to a select committee . After a short discussion the bill was withdrawn . Corrupt Practices at Electioxs . —Mr . T . Smith ( in the absence ef Lord J . Kassell ) moved the second reading of this bilL a The Atiorxey-Gbsbral reported what had been said by Mr . "Wal pole , that the government did not object to the bill , reserving to themselves the liberty of proposing amendments in the committee . a
Colonel Sibthobp said he could not allow the bill to ha read a second time without expressing his objection to it . It was , in his opinion , a mean and dastardly piece of legislation , and only meant as a claptrap on the part of the fate government , to make people believe that they were opposed to bribery and corru ption . If by this measure they thought to do away with the exercise of those acts of charity which some gentlemen practised in the boroughs they represented so far as he was concerned they should not succeed , for he should continue to exercise these , as he had hitherto done , notwithstanding that he might be pulled up before a committee of that house . The Common Law Fees Regulation Bill went through committee ; and , the other business on the paper having been gone through , the Hoase adjourned before two o ' olock .
THURSDAY , Mabch 25 . HOUSE OF lOKDS .-The Law of Wills Amendment Bill went through committee . The Earl of Elwsbobough having given notice of a question on the hostilities which have recently taken place afc Ava , the Earl of Derby stated that though a collision had taken place between the East India Company ' s foroes and those of the Soverei gn of Ava , no war had yet been declared . He was not in a position to give any detailed information until the arrival of the next mail . Lord Mosieaoeb moved for a Select Committee on the Irish Consolidated Annuities Act , and instanced numerous cases of hardship resulting from the enforcement of the repayment of the advances . The motion was agreed to , and their lordships soon after adjourned . HOUSE OF COMMONS—To a question put by Mr . Keogh ,
The Chancellor of the Exchequer said it was not the intention of ministers in the present parliament to propose any bill for the repeal of the act conferring the grant on Maynootb . Mb . nmiE ' sAKKDAL Monos .-Mr . Home then moved for leave to bring m ha measure to amend the representative system , by making the franchise depend on residence and rating only—to introduce voting by the ballot—to shorten the duration of parliament to three years—and to adjust the representation on the basis of population and property . He called on the house , ai the best means of preserving the blessings of oar constitution , to remove all grounds of discontent arising from the injustice and anomalies of the present system . The only way in which the country could bear that competition which must , ere long , come upon it , wa 3 by ensuring to the people equal rights , and convincing them that they had an interest in the
¦ uintenance of the institutions of the conntrv . He commented upon the recent speech of Lord Derby , ' who , having seceded from the views he advocated nineteen years ago , denounced as demagogues those who remained atedfast to those opinions . The extension of the suffrage had not tended to encourage , bat to check , the lawless march of democracy , and democracy was only dangerous when it became kwless . He considered that the franchise was the nght of every free-born Englishman ; but he drew the line « A ' Pfwent , one-fortieth of the adult malepopulamPnt t l retHrn *• motitj to make laws for the governrOTrLpnt = 3 ent ? ecoantry ; that was not a state of popular Sn » t ? ° Uthat conld be satisfactory to tho people , or racterise . i the&"I ' who 8 Sconded the motion ' oha " measures ever oS f ? £ one ^ most autocratical saffrage it <* veto wa J n ? tl - on ' the ^ tension of the fl ^ enclgive ^ to sn ^ KughB ' .

the Peers , the Church , and the government , an unequal and oppressive mode of raising the revenue , and a deterioration of the morals of the people . He showed the gross inequalities of a system under which 325 members , forming , in fact , a majority of the house , represented only 141 , 372 vote 3 , or 1 for 430 , while the rest were returned by 908 , 715 , or 1 for 2 , 779 , and concluded by impressing on the house the importance at this particular juncture of expressing an opinion on the subject . Mr . H . Drummosd considered the danger of any extensive widening of the franchise to be that the House of Commons would represent the poverty , instead of the wealth of the country . If he took up the part of reformer it would be to reform the House of Lords . The power of
the House of Commons had increased , and was increasing , and he wished to enable the Lords to withstand that power , ne suggested that the crown should have the power of naming peers for life . Sir P . Wood ' said that no government could exist for many months whioh would declare itself against all reform whatever . The educational development of the country had been so largel y increasing of late years that it was necessary that a much larger number should be admitted withm the pale of the constitution . Mr . Napier could not assent to a plan , the tendency of which was to swamp , by mere numbers , the wishes and feelings of the intelligent and eduoated voters . Mr . Roebuck commented on the course pursued by Sir W . Wood , who approved of the motion of Mr . Hume in nearly all its parts , and yet could not find courage enough for it . He contended that that system of representation could never give satisfaction or secure good government , which excluded from political rights educated and moral men . He was , however , of opinion that to unite a number of small boroughs into one , for the purpose ol increasing the constituencies , would be most objectionable .
Mr . Disraeli , after remarking on the inconsistency oi Sir W . P . Wood , in speaking in favour of tho principle of a motion , which he afterwards stated he should not vote for , proceeded to combat the proposition put forward by Mr . Hume and Sir J . Walmsley , that the town population was not fairly represented , by quoting the number of members returned by the urban and rural populations respectively , of some of the largest counties' showing that the proportion of members to numbers was far greater in the towns than in the country . Taken altogether , the borough population returned one member for every 35 , 000 , and tho re 3 t of England one in 36 , 000 ; and the total electoral body was not , as had been stated on the other side , in the proportion of one in seven but one in four , and this , inclusive of the one and a-half million of agricultural labourers , who , he had not vet heard , it was the intention of the
Parliamentary Reformers to enfranchise . Against triennial parliaments he had no inveterate prejudice ; but how could those who refused to allow a parliament to legislate in the last session of its existence demand that the duration of parliaments should be shortened to three , or , as same of them wished , to one year . With regard to the ballot , in an uniraited constituency it would be a Conservative measure ; bv . t he could not conceive a more canning device for an oligarcy than that the franchise should be confined to a limited number , whose voting should he concealed from the eyes of the unenfranchised millions . And if , on the other hand , they went to universal saffrage , without which the ballot should not be established , that would involve a new constitution—that o ! the sovereignty of the people . That was the constitution oi America , but notof England , which was that of the sovereigntyoi Queen Victoria . He referred to a statement made recently by the
governor of New York , as to the increase of bribery at elections there , and the riots that took place , as proof that the ballot did not tend to prevent corruption and intimidation , or conduce to public tranquillity . Corruption * va * to he remedied , not by new-fangled laws , hut by the spread of intelligence , and the altered tone of society consequent thereon . He denied that the Earl of Derby , or any member of fte government , ever said or meant that an extension of thefranchise must necessarily involve anextenaion of demo , crane power . What they were opposed to was the tampering witli the depository of political power , than which nothing could be more injurious or dangerous to the country . Under the settlement of 1331 the country was well governed , and until a necessity was shown for an alteration , and a clear and defined scherao for improving or ] extending it was brought forward he should adhere to it . Mr . H . Berkeley was in favour of the ballot . Mr . Osbosne would rote for the motion .
Lobd J . Rosselo did not consider that the propositions of Mr . Hume ' s motion would conduce to the good government of the coun . try . Adverting to these propositions in detail , he spoke strongly against the ballot , as applicable only to a very wide extension of the suffrage , and gave it as his opinion that with universal suffrage and vote by ballot the monarchical principle and the hereditary aristocracy could not long continue as parts of our constitution ; and as to triennial parliaments , he reminded its advocates that the Triennial Act had teen repealed because of the inconvenience , expense . and heat which it occasioned . He believed at present the franchise was too exclusively confined to the middle classes , and that it should be extended to those members of the educated working classes who were in every way fitted to exercise it . He also considered it important that the constituencies of the smaller baroBghs should be enlarged . He could not admitt the policy of the
present government , not to make ony change in the Act of 1832 without a clear necessity , which meant that degree of discontent and disaffection which convinred government that they would not be safe without a change . Lord J . Russell concluded by saying—I , for the reasons I have stated , Imiiat vote against the proposition contained in the present motion ; out I do trust that her Ma . jestj ' s government ivill renounce the course they have indicated tonight , and will consider well the step they take . I trust they will not wait till a necessity arise 3 , but that they will take an earjy opportunity of maturely considering the present state of the representatii n with a view to an extension of the franchise ; and that , abive all , they will deem it incumbent on them to extend that franchise to a greater number of the working classes than are now in the enjoyment of it , so that by timely reforms thev may make those instintions of the country permanent to which I believe the people arc at present steadily and firmly attached . ( Cheers . )
After some remarks by Mr . Secretary Walp < . le , Mr . I fume replied when a divi-ien was taken , the result being 89 for and 244 against the motion . The house shortly afterwards adjourned . ( From our Second Edition of last week . ) FRIDAY , Mabch 19 . HOUSE OF LORDS . —The » ysteraof " worrittin ? " the government into a dissolution was continued last ni ght by the opposition in both houses , In the Lords the attaok was led by The Duke of Newcastle who , in presenting a petition
from the Manchester Commercial Association , deprecating the reversal of our present Free Trade policy , and praying that the country might bo relieved from the state of anxiet y prevailing aa to the intentions of the . government , disclaimed all wish to offer anything like a factious opposition to the present government ; but nevertheless , until he should have a declaration from the First Minister of the Crown that he would not attempt to restore the Corn Laws , he must withhold from the noble earl his confidence and support . He wished to ask the noble earl if he intended to advise the dissolution of parliament with the least possible delay ?
The Earl of Debbt declared his inability to discover any symptom of that anxiety and alarm which was said to agitate the public mind in consequence of the accession of the present , government to power . lie admitted , however , that an early settlement of tho commercial policy of the country , and of the still wider questions—Who was the man and what the principles by whom and on which the government of the country was to be hereafter conducted , —was extremely desirable , and he was therefore prepared to advise her Majesty to dissolve the present parliament as soon as the defence of the country was provided for , and the necessary business disposed of , in order that the future course of policy might be definitely settled in the course of the autumn . In the debate which followed no ; new point of importance was elicited , if we except the fact that Earl Grej and the Earl of Aberdeen expressed themselves satisfied with Lord Derby ' s answer from which it may be inferred that these purely factious debates will not be resumed in that house .
The Patent Law Amendment Bill was then read a second time and ordered to be referred to a Select Committee . HOUSE OF COMMONS —The debate of the evening was preceded by explanations on various matters . The Home Secretary , in order to allay anxiety on the subjeot excited by Lord Derby ' s speech , announced that the government did not mean to propose a committee on the system of National Education in Ireland ; they wohU , however , not oppose a motion for that purpose if it did not contemplate any essential alteration in the princi ple of united education . Lord J . Russell again asked if it was the intention of he government to advise her Majes ty to dissolve the preent parliament , as soon as regar d to the service of her Majesty would permit , so that the important measures deferred by it might be submitted at the earliest possible period to the new parliament .
Mr . DI 6 RABH , after complaining that the question was unprecedented , said that it was the intention of the government to dissolve the present parliament as soon as the necessary measures had been passed for the service of her Majesty and the security and good government of the realm . The wish and intention of the government was to meet the new parliament , bo that its opinion on the question of confidence in the government and in its measures might be taken in the course of the present year . Lord John returned to the assault by asking if Chancery Reform was included in these " necessary measures ; " but Mr . Disraeli did not feel himself called upon to give any further explanation , With respect to the brutal outrage committeed by Austrian officers on Mr . Mather , Mr . Dmbami said : —That from the evidence taken upon the inquiry at Florence it appeared that Mr . Mather had been hardly treated . The inquiry had been fairly conducted , and in consequence of the conclusion come to a demand had been made on the Tuscan Government for reparation .
The bouse then went into committee of supply , and Major Bebbsford moved the army estimates , which he stated were in all respects those which the late Government had prepared . The number of the land forces voted last year was 98 , 742 ; this year the number proposed was 101937 the charge of course was increased in proportion . ' The total increase in the effective branch was £ 112 , 642 ; and in the non-effective , a decrease of JE 28 . 215 . The gross amount voted for this branch of the service last year was £ 5 , 929 541 and the sum required for the service of the present year was £ 6 , 013 . 970 , being an increase of £ 84 , 429 , which wa mainly attributable to the Kaffir war . He concluded by moving the vote for the number of men . Mr . H . TViiiUMa said there was no nece 33 ity for such a number of men .
Mr . Osbobne prefaced a motion that the vote be refused , by a bitter attack upon the government as a whole , while he paid a high compliment to Mr . Disraeli . He rejoiced at his position , for he looked upon it as a tribute to the intellectual superiority of the age , that he was the leader of the aristocratic power in England ; and he well deserved his elevation at the hands of that party for he it was who had infused new life into the dead body of protection . But this shuffling attempt at concealment was unworthy of him who , on a previous occasion , had declared that it was subversive of representative government for a ministry to conceal their policy from the House of

Commons . He warned the farmers not to put too much trust in Lord Derby , they remembered the oonduot ofnm ancestor in 1845 at Bosworth . The taint was in the blood and might show itself . If Lord Derby wished to avoid his government being hereafter known as the thimble-rig government , he would declare what he really intended to do , and not wait to see which side was the strongest and then declare for that , Having in tho couraoof his remarks strongly criticised some Irish appointments , he called up Mr Wliiteside in defence , who-in turn excited Mr . Hatohell to defend the Irish officers of the late ministry .
In the subsequent debate Mr . Booker , Lord March , Mr . W . Miles , Mr . Cayley , Mr . Disraeli , the Marquis of Granby , and the Attorney-General , defended the course of the government . Its opponents Mr . Cobden , Mr . Cardwell , Lord J . Russell , Mr . Bright , and Colonel Thompson . Mr . Cobden attacked the landlords , and an altercation took place between him and Lord March , as to the rents on the Richmond estateB , in which some point-blank contradictions were exchanged . The member for the West Riding said : He did not call upon the ministers to declare what course
they meant to take ; this was for the majority of the house to decide . lie appealed to that majority . If the house allowed a minority to govern it , upon the same principle it might allow a dictator to govern it . Let the men be voted , but he hoped the house would have the firmness to take into its own hands the control of the public money . Upon every ground , the housa was bound to bring the present Parliament to a close by constitutional means , in order that the question of Free Trade or Protection might be brought to a conelusion , which wai due , not only to all classes in this country , but to the whole civilised world .
Mr . Miles stigmatised the conduct of the Opposition as factious and ungentlemanly . Lord Johs Russell said he was right in naming the Earl of Derby to her Majesty , inasmuch as he was the leader of the largeBt party in the House of Commons . That government , however , had t aken a course which could find no precedent in the history of this country since it became possessed of a representative constitution . Tho government proposed to go on in a minority without proposing any of its own measures , and without appealing to the country—a course which , he contended , was perfectly unconstitutional . He referred to the remarks which had been made by Lord Derby on his having invited his parliamentary friends to his house for the purpose of consulting them on the posture of public affairs , and said that tho noble
earl had repeatedly done tho same thing , and he—a peer—Had even directed bis friends as to the course they should pursue as regarded the representation of the people in the House of Commons .. He had only asked one individual to these meetings who had not been in the habit of attending his invitations to consultations in Downing-street during the last five years , and that one was his ri ght hon . friend Sir J . Graham , whom he had previously more than once invited to join his government . He was , after all , the inhabitant of a free country , and surely had as good a right to consult and invite his political friends as Lord Derby . The fact was , that having taken an extraordinary course they sought for every pretence to justify it . Mi * nisters called for forbearance , but those whom they asked to forbear did not expect to be treated with contumely and that
all explanation would be refused them . Lord Derby had tried to raise anew issue , that he was minister in order to resist the encroachments of democracy . But he ( Lord John ) was not aware that democracy had made such dangerous advances in this country of late years . There had been attempts to Btem democracy in past times , as the " Six Acts , " and they bad failed , while the milder policy of Mr . Canning and Sir . R . Peel , which followed , had been successful . The change introduced by those statesmen had not been for the benefit of democracy , butfor the security of the monarch y and the authorities constituted by law . If Lord Derby contemplated laws opposed to the sentiments of the country , and attempted to enforce them by means of an extruordi . nary nature , he would not discourage but favour democracy , The Chancellor of the Exchequer congratulated the newly constituted opposition on their first motion , beino
one to stop the supplies . The government would meet them and divide with them on that issue . He justified the delay in dissolving parliament by Lord John ' s own statement on resigning , that it would not be wise to dissolve at the present time , and charged the noble lord with having repeatedly thrown up office , and combined with those who had opposed his government to regain power . The issue whioh would go to tho country was whether tho country had confidence in the present ministry or not—whether the agricultural interest believed that that ministry would do their utmost to redress the grievances of which they complained . If Lord Derby had a majority , he would not bring forward his measures for doing justice toagrioulture at the end of the present parliament , seeing that there was a distinct pledge that the sense of tho country would be taken on the subject .
Mr . Bhioht reminded those who now complained of a factious opposition , of their own conduct when opposing the introduction of Free Trad * , and of their professions against that policy , as j ustifying the opinion that their intention was to endeavour to revem it . If that was not their intention , let them recant or go at once to the country . The debate at length terminated without a division , and the vote for the number of men was agreed to , the money charge for the same , £ 3 , 602 , 067 , being deferred to Monday , at the suggestion of Mr , Hume . The Friendly Societies Bill was read a second time , and the other business having been disposed of , the house rose at & quarter past one o ' clock .

TIIE BURMESE WAR . The following intolligenoe is , it is stated , taken from an extra of the " Madras Athenaeum , dated February 13 five a . m .: — "Rksewed Hosmmzi with the Bdrmese . —The steamer , which reached Madras at half-past ' eight o ' clock last evening , fell in with tho Fire Queen , off tho Sandheads , on her way up to Calcutta . She brought intelligence of an action between her Majesty ' s ship Fox and the Burmese , in which the former had three men killed with vast loss on the part of the enemy . The Burmese are growing more arrogant and menacing in their tone , and evidently court a war with the British . The King , as we learn from the ' Englishman' of the 7 th inst ., had mustered 20 , 000 troops in the nei ghbourhood of Kyook Phyoo , according to popular rumour , and there can be no doubt that whatever opinions may be ent ertained as to the origin of the war , we are now fairly committed to a struegle which must end in the absorption of the choicer portion of the Burmese territory .

The resolution wis carried with only six dissentients .

ADDRESS TO THE TRADES BY THE METROPOLITAN TRADES CONFERENCE . On the 18 th inst . a Conference of the various trades associations of the metropolis was held at the Bell Inn , Old Bailey , to take into consideration the best means of rendering efficient support to the Amal gamated Society of Eng ineers , in the dispute between that bod y and their employers , and the propriety of forming a National Confederation of the Trades . An address to the trades emanating from this Conference has been issued , which states the deiegates ( seventy in number ) have arrived at the conviction that the working engineers both need help , and deserve it . After stating the causes which led to the strike , and other incidents connected with it , the address proceeds as follows : —What we would
recommend—earnestly entreat—our fellow working men to do is to vote such a sum from the accumulated funds of their societies , as will assure success to the Amalgamated Society , the money not to be granted as a g ift but advanced as a loan , its re-payment being guaranteed by the Executive . The resources of the Trades' Societies of this country amount to a half a million of money , out of that £ 10 , 000 is but a trifle , and even if it were given would in such a cause be well spent . That sura would determine the contest probably with , out the necessity for its being expended . The moral example would have an immense effect , and thus backed by the power and the will to do it , would be irresistible . With regard to the more general objects which we have been called upon to consider , we think that now , when all
combination is threatened , and when the workers are thoroughly alive to its benefits , is the time for attempting . to consolidate and secure it , by placing it upon a wider basis . Union gives strength , whether among employers or em . ployed , but ol the two the labourers gain more strength by combination . One employer can easily coerce one man , or drive him to idleness and destitution . The employers of one trade can sometimes tyrannize over all its members , but that is more costly , difficult , and dangerous than individual ^ oppression . But the employers of all labour cannot succeed against a union of all labour . One trade can be stopped for a time . One department of production may be temporarily suspended , but who would dare to bid all the work of ^ the country to cease ?—None but madmen—one day , one single twenty-four hours , during which mill and factory should be
still , the steam engine motionless , the loom unemployed , the forge cold , the mine deserted , the workshop untenanted throughout broad England , would go far to change the face of society . It would not be attempted . Our safety then lies in union , wider spread and more closely knitted—union which shall apply , not to one trade only , but to all tradeBunion which shall take in all existing organised societies . With such union strikes would cease with the necessity for them , and fairness would be secured by the power to assert that as a right which we are now too often compelled to sue for as a boon . For the accomplishment of this , our ideas point to a legal combination of all trade societies in a great federative union , which , while leaving the organisation of each intact , shall band together the strength of all for mutual support , and the advancement of common interests .
We think also that the time has arrived when the working classes should consider the possibility of labouring for themselves , and enjoying the fruits of their own toil . Whenever practicable , it is essential to start co-operative factories and workshops , where shali commence the accumulation of property for the worker , and in which he may secure self-eraployment . This subject , however , like that of a general federation , embraces principles-of vast magnitude , and details of the greatest importance . They demand tbe thought and action , not only of the metropolitan trades , but of those of the whole country , and we therefore recommend that a general conference of labour , a true people ' s parliament for the whole kingdom , be assembled in London as soon as possible .
We call , then , upon our fellow workers to " meet in their council reoms throughout the provinces , to consider this address , and the report oRhe meeting and resolutions of the conference which is enclosed . To address themselves to the matter like men worthy to be free . To form a judgment , and to let us know the result . We hope that result will be the appointment in every locality of a delegate or an in . perial conference , to be held in London ; to consider the general questions we have indicated , and the vote of the utmost that can be spared from the society ' s funds , for the assistance of the Amalgamated Society . Remember , workmen of England , that that society is not ? only righting its own battle , but yours also . That it stands in the gap to protest , both by word and deed , against social tvranny and
industrial serfdom . That it is defending for all the great right to combine . That it is warding off a blow aimed , not only at itaelfj but at every union of workers throughout the kingdom . That it is holding out against the deprivation of every right of the labourer . That it is refusing a Declaration which would sign away the liberty of the toiler , and leave him a being without rights , though capable of suffering wrongs . In the success of the Amalgamated Society , your own independence- is bound up . Let that be put down , crushed , annihilated by a combination of employers , and your own turn is sure to come . Their defeat will be the
signal for an onslaught , not only against combinations as they are , but the principle of combination itself . If then , you be indeed men , worthy of freedom—if you would not become as much the serfs of commerce as your forefathers were of feudalism—if you desire the elevation of labour and assert its dignity—if you long for social elevation—if you desire to live and die free , and to leave freedom to your children—come forward nobly , generously , wisely , in support of that Society , which , suffering for the defence of Us own rights , is standing between you and oppression , shielding you from degradation and forwarding the progress of labour . On behalf of the Conference , 6 . W . Prideaux , Chairman , John Pkttie , Secretary .

CONFERENCE OF THE FRIENDS OF THE WORKING CLASSES . This body met , according to adjournment , on Wednesday evening at the Tailons ' tAssoeiation Rooms , Castle-street , Oxford-street . Professor Maurice in the chair . Lord Goderiph , Messrs . Ludlow , Hughes , Neale , Ellison , Chevalier , and other gentlemen , were present . The subject for discussion—Wha ^ ought to be the relative positions-of Capital and Labour—was opened by Mr . Jepson , who recommended the establishment of co-operative institutions combining agricultural and manufacturing pursuits , after the manner of the Swiss , as being more calculated to produce beneficial results than the mode now adopted . Mr Bezer advocated the obtainment of political power as the surest means of removing the evils which affect society — Mr . Edwards contended that the evil lav in men Hw » ii ; n . »
only upon their rights , and neglecting their responsibilities . Ihe spirit of the day was to get money with an Utter in . difference as to the manner in which it was procured wages being the chief item ; in the cost of production thev were pushed lower and lower , until the pawnbroker was be-T ?"™?« , ° J ^ ? > ? nd the tally man their creditor . It was the desire of wealth and pre-eminence being so firmly rooed in the heart of thb people more than the want tRW P ° , ^ u produced the l&m ™ M result . The speaker concluded b y expressing an opinion that the remedy was to be found in making the workman a sharer m the profit obtained on his labour .-Mr . Walter Cooper contended that working men , by uniting their energies , might speedily elevate themselves and become their own ernployers .-Mr . T . M . Wheeler recommended the abolition of the laws of primogeniture , withdrawing the surplus labour from towns , the shortening the hours of labour , and the establishment of co-operative stores and manufactories which would tend to equalise the condition of the capitalist
ana tne labourer . —Mr . O'Brien recommended those prosent to study tiie principles put forth by the National Reform League , in which provision was made io change the preeent system without loss of property or injury to any individual . —Mr . Lloyd Jones said their object was , by the lest of vanous experiments , so to familiarise society to their views that the change , by its gradual operation , would be almost unfelt and unseen . The operative would be silently becoming an employer and a capitalist , and the world would be nttmg itself to its new circumstances ; and that , he b « - Iieved , was the only way to avoid a revolution . The necessities of the worldwere teaching them as much as their sages Its voice had only to be heard to ensure a beneficial change .-Mr . Jepson having replied , Professor Maurice summed up the views of each Speaker , dwelling ^ unon the sahen points m their addresses . In renlv S ^ iZi ^
