      « fl | plT PUBLIC StE ^ tlNCi IN 4 ^ U j , HABITitNTS OF PAISLEY .

      ' . ' jJkridgedfrom the WatgewKew Liberator . ) ' Motiday night , the 29 th idt . a meeting of the in-^ M&tanfcrofPaisley was idd in the Old Low Cbnrcli , fi > tkke into coitsi&rafion fte propriety of-petitioning r-Tia Majesty lie Queen , and the Horoe of Commons , for a total- remissiOH of the senten ce of the five cotton -spinners . The Paisley insmnnentai band preceded the committee to the churchj which was , oy the boor of eight , crowded to excess . Mr . James Flem-JBg being called to , the chair , opened the business of the . nttetiag by a few appropriate remarks . -Mr . ' Thomas Gillespie , delegate from-Glasgow , -spolte'at coiis ^ erable length on the merits of the -question before them , and was followed by

      -- life ; J&raham ^ hmeaii , in making a few remarks on tSe-newspaperpress , in reference to this affair , he observed thai the Ishsory of the newspaper press , of this « bantrf was curious and ; instructive ^ He would -exempt the Tory press , as it was oppposed to the ¦ working classes upon principle . It denies them an equality of righte . It being a professsed enemy he 'would pass on . to the liberal portion of the pres *; It bsA for yeara worn the garb of bypoerisy , but it bad now thrown off the disguise . It declares- the'working classes to be fit « nly to "be slaves of their employera . It is well known that the court passed an fejtnetian- that no part of the trial should . 1 > e published till finished , as incomplete > viderjce might dejadgeihe case . The rule of the court was so far right .

      "Wio infringed this rule . The Scottish Reformers -Gazette was thefirst .. It was stated in that paper before aiiy of the evidence appeared , that such a scene of crnelty , oppression , and blood-thirstyness , as exercised by these unionist ? , had never been given in evidence in any court . 01 th , e personal Mastery of this 3 Lditor be . would say nothing , perhaps Jus own character wonld fill up the-epithets applied to the spinners . Next in « rder was the Glasgow -drguiy it "lay afar « ff in dignified ^ repose , * till the proper time ; its spirit , however , was not the less -virnlcnt and-vindictive j politeness of manner coe--stftutes all the difference between him and his brother < t ? ike Gazette . Of the Glasgow Chronicle he need say little in this place , as its principles were well known ; its opposition to unions has been _ openly and broadly maintained ; that labour ought ; at ali

      times to submit to the caprice of capital . As to -the Scotsman , the Northern Whig , the Manchester Guardian , The Leeds Times , and almost all th ? daily papers of London and Dublin , they all croak "the same chant , therefore discrimination is unnecessary , expressing astonishment- at the mildness of * he sentence . The Scotsman , fearing that the earth - ¦ would dep art from its orbit in astonishment" at ' the slightness of the punishment ; " banishing a man for riofing at Oakbank , while he was three hnndred miles distant . —( Cheers . ^ The Glasgow Liberaiur , Northern Liberator , STortJteni Siar , the- London Dispatch , and the True Sua , are the only papers which possess the confidence of the working classes , being the only portion of the new . spapers that consistently and impartiallT advocate the rights of labour . It was stated in the evidence that ; several hundred

      pounds had been give a to the Glasgow Liberator to advocate strikes . ^ Now , air the money given to the support of that paper , was given previous to its becoming / the property of the late John Tait , and that not one farthing has bs-. u received by Dr . JeliB Taylor foT advocating one cause whatever connected with any of the trades . John Tait , to maintain rHs paper , " bonded a property which he got left , to him in the north , to the amount of . £ 700 , and at his death , idt his family in a very destitute condition , so devoted -was be to the cause of the labonrin ^ clashes .

      ( Lroud cheers . ) " With regard to the minuteness of the- evidence , I leave it to others who were present all the time of the trial to detail . ( Great applause . ) And what do we find the Lord Advocate saying and doing ? I have no evidence , says this legal dignitary , -of " the crimes ' as charged against these men ; -but they axe conspirators against their masters . -They have conspired to raise their wages- to interrupt the free exercise of capital . It was , however , the fraudulent and avaricious masters who had conspired against the workmen . You must agree to our terms , said they , without eves giving diem time to consult on a matter so closely identified with their happiness .

      Yet the men did , in their unhappy dilemma , agree to yield to the proposition of the employers . But no ' sooner had they doneso , than the haughty tyrants said to them , "Ah , ye conspirator ? , we have you now ; but von must submit to other ten per cent , of a reduedon . and if you oppose , we will probably send you over io cool your heels in ! Sew Holland ;"' { Cheers . ) These were the feelings and prmcip ] es of the masters , and into these the Lord Advocate eatered with a congenial spirit . He directed all his influence against the prisoners ; be interfered ; as much In opposing the course of jnstiee as ever / did Archbishop Laud , when he cut the ears -and slii the noses of those who would not conform to his

      dogmas , or regulate their verdict by bis dictation . Did be not—1 will leave a fdiscriminating public to say ;—did he not endeavour by every movement he aiade , by every word he uttered , to constitute the High Court of Justiciary a star chamber , such gs it was when the bigoted lord prostituted' tmth and justice to the venal and tyrannical purposes of the state- ^ - ( cheers ) and what was the object which the learned lord contemplated ? It was to criminate tie ¦ very men whom be bad declared innocent ofcrime . ; it was to throw the working men of the . realm on the merer of the cold-blooded masters ; it was to please the government which he serves , and to earn a smile from a thing , fawnins , sycophantic , and . imbecile

      ¦ as himself— little Lord John Eussell - . ( Cheers . ) " WeB did "be know t ^ at the cotton lords ; and the -other lords of onr laboar , are those on whom government relies for support—well did he know tiiat we iave little influence . Let us retain the favour ; of the men of wealth , who fatten on the fruits : of oppression , is their sentiment . " Workmen may'scowl , and mutt--r , and complain . " We have jails ibr thfem —we h- Tv gibbets for them—we have a Botany Bay to peoolc—and we have courts fitted to execute our wilL " ( Cheer-. ) But to show you that government Is -determined to annihilate the unions of the working classes , I uesd only tell you that when Mr . "~ Wakley preseBJed a petition last week , in behalf of the five

      unfortunate Eieijj Mr . AberercmHe , the jadulated Speaker of the House , felt ii » Whiggish sensibility insaked , because it contained an illusion to a titled jabblewhich exists m the House of Peers , as weU as an illitentierabble which exists amongst rbeHhourers . The latter he will at once admit , and do ddubt direct his visual organs to Botany Bay ; but the fonaer , a rabble in the House of Peers , a rabble -amongst the beli-iincins , old-maid disturbing Mar--qnisses of "Waterford , —horrible profanity ! The £ ne ~ feelings of his soul were shocked , and the : blasphemous petition was rejected . —( Laughter and

      cheers . ) Th ? t is little of it , however—Daniel , the King of Munster , is the r ight hand man b ' Ministry , and his tail are at chelr service . ( Loud laughter . ) Daniel , the inigbry , and his knotty t ^ al , are the barristers for cheap labour , and the enemies nf -union , that is , of labour-protecting unions . - Yet he is tie advocate for . Universal Suffrage , thongh be has laboured night and d = y in the Corn Exchange in denouncing the suffrage which working men have , and ought to have , in defending the rights of their industry . The Lord Advocate had discovered that a murder was eonmutted in Scotland , asd had won laurels ^ -immortal laurels—to himself

      by shouldering tee atrocious crimes f upon the Unionists . Dan , envious of the honour ^ ferreted out a murder in Ireland , which is a rare occurrence there . —( Laughter . ) He was resolved to vie with the -Scotchman m glory—so be broadly asserted , that tae-Irisb Trades' Unionists had committed the Tnnrder . Sixteen United Trades in Dublin riet with aim to urfend ther Character . Tile brother of the " murdered man proved that the deceased was assassinated in a political feud . Bnt the great Dan was not thus to be shorn of bis honours . —( LaugBi er . ^ He said it was the Trades who commitedthe

      deed ; . acd when a few honest men had the courage to oppose him , he shook his wig , stretched out Ms zxmS y and exclaimed . " Irishmen , will you ; not supportme 4 ah , if you do not , you are enemies to oaM Ireland , to the green island of your fathers , ihat beaatifu } gem of the sea . " ( Laughter . ) But this giant in law says that the unions of working men are illegal—are inimical to die tranquillity of the country . There was a time when he was not a legisla tor , and when- he exercised his whole ingenuity to -evade the law , and disturb the ignoble quite of Ireland . ( Cheers . ) Combination—Protean conspiracy was ihen his element—he lived on it—he couS not bare existed in any other atmosphere . Agitation , escutcheon

      - -agitation , agitation was the matte on his ^ Cheers . ) Did any Beiesford , with an orange tail , legislate against his associations , he changed their - name , concealed their design , and stepped forth i again oh the arena , refreshed and Invigorated by the v opposition . Even , when the Dnke of Wellington parsed a biU for the specific purpose of crushing him and exterminating hi 3 societies , the iuvincible Daniel —the lion ef the tribe of restless spMts-HpaaghteV ) - — Effl « ed his voice of thunder , and exclaimed that he * -disregarded their enactments , as the united energies ^ trfiiB « wn oald Ireland were worth all the bits of bar ? _ ijawiB » -Wotted parchment in England .

      upon them with scorn . . All their , favourite orders have had their proportion of crime . Shopkeepers , merchants , doctors-lawyers , clergymen , and lords , nar ? been hung for forgery or murder . ( Cheers . ) "What is Lord J . Russell doing every day , bnt plotting murder—what is the government doing , hot sending out their mercenaries-to maim , kill , and burn . They bid us study the history of our country and learn wisdom from it—a fine description of wisdom indeed . For many hundreds of years ^ itsj > ages are filled with little but feudal murder and outrage , ( cheers ) and yet these same titled assassins decry the hard working millions , whom they oppress , and

      point them out to the world as combined murderers , because they wish to support their wages . ( Cheers . ) To say that there is no immorality , no crime , among the working classes , would show superlative ignorance and dishonesty . I deeply lament their vices and follies , and would rejoice to see a great moral regeneration effected—would rejoice to see them become high-minded , intelEgerit , and temperate . But while I deplore the existence office of any kind , or amongst any class of society , I as heartily despise those canting lordly tyrants who tell us to be religious , but whose own conduct is opposed , in every point of view , to the golden maxim of Christianity ( Cheers . ) I despise those titled Scribes and Pharisees who shed crocodile tears over the crimes , of

      working men , bat smile at , or assist in , the commission of the hideous crimes of the great . ( Cheers . ) If they are sincere , let them annihilate oppression , administer justice with impartiality , institute schools for the education , of the people , disseminate works of sound information , encourage the acquisition of knowledge , patronise virtue in every line of action and in every rank , and be themselves virtuous . Let them do these things ; then their sincerity will be unquestioned , and crime will hide its guilty head . —( Cheers . ) But , insteaiVof that , the Government rather debases society , projects and props up monstrous systems of oppression , enriches the rich , impoverishes the poor , pensions old superannuated dukes and duchesses ^ gives a debasing work-house to the virtuous poor ,

      separates the man and wife , and treats poverty and misfortunt as the worst of crimes : —( cheers ) —aad seems as much afraid of a strong principle of virtuous action and determination growing amongst the working classes as the thief is of the gallows . ( Loud laughter and cheers ., ) Indeed , they seem to think that virtue and intelligence are too far advanced to admit of any ; farther progress in rheir wicked domination and coercive deeds , and for that reason they endeavoured , at the trial of the spinuers , to throw a foul stigma on the character of ibe whole labouring community of Scotland , and to aid them in their noble pursuit the chief of the Shamrock Isle laboured to prove that Irishmen were not a whit better . ( Laughter . ) Witnesses were carefullv selected Dot to convict the five men of murder

      or incendiarism—that they could not—but to criminate the whole body of united spinners , so thst the public might dravr an inference that all the unions of the trades were equally depraved . ( Cheers . ) Thtre is no charge against the men , said the Lord Adrocate , but they are dangerously intelligent , and we must get rid of them ; they have not outraged the laws of society , but they are opposed to tbemilloirners , and the mill-owners are good men beeausq they are rich men and influential electors , therefore we must ship these fellow * ofi' to Botany Bay . -They bear a good character ; some of them are devoted much to religious feeling , bnt their good character and religious principles will do them no harm in

      Botany . Bay ; their punishment will deter other men of extensive knowledge , and high spirit , from involving themselves cs the leaders of these unions , and deprived of their aid , the unions will soon effect their own dissolution . Such , indeed , are the true grounds of the prosecution . —( Loud cheers . ) The arguments , however , of the Lord Advocate did not produce in the minds cf tba jury the impression either expected or contemplated . There were seven in that jury who understood the full nature of their solemn duty . They were all sworn , as jurors are , to do justice , as they have to answer at the judgment bar of the Eternal . Seven swore . that . the men wer ? innocent , eight swore that thev were guilrv , of

      endeavouring to keep up their wages , and freed them from the charge of murder and fire-raising . Isow , had it been the destiny of the unfortunate men to be tried on the other side of the Tweed , they would have been unhesitatingly acquitted , but it was their mishap to be tried oil this side—a side famed for probity and religion , and they were banished to Botany Bay . There is surely some mysterious quality in the waters of the Tweed , when the same action , leeling , or pursuit is branded with gnilt on the one side , and clothed with innocence on the other . It is like some of the mysterious rivers which flow in the regions of heathen mythology . ( Cheers . ) If we heard of a nation of savages living under one chief , who would hang , burn , or bauish any of their tribe , on certain charges , if fonud oa one side of a particular stream , but if found on the

      " other , would receive them back into the bosom of their society , wonld we not pity them , and shudder at their ideas of justice ; and . like good Christians , we would say , let us send Bibles and missionaries to them . [ Cheers and laughter . ] But I ha \ e heard of no savages so wickedly absurd . Pate has reserved for our own eulightened land that bad pre-eminence , and if the savages knew of it , probably from tLeir snperior notions of rigbteousuess , they would send missionaries to us —[ cheers ]—to teach us that the waters of the Tweed have not , by the infallible laws of nature , one side for innocence and justice , and another for guilt , banishment , or hanging . — [ Reiterated cheering . ] But , alas ! it was the evil fortune of the five men to be arriiigued on the the victims of its influence . But I exult in the fact that there were seven men in the fifteen who

      bad felt no other influence than the sacred dictates of jnstiee . They will be regarded with love while tbey live , for their well-tried and unshaken integrity , and be looked back upon as patriots by posterity . —( Cheers . ) The newspaper press , bow " - ever , would fondly rob them of the high reputation , and their exalted honours , by artfully concealing from the world that there were seven in the jury who declared the men innocent . Had a Tory Bill in the House of Commons been carried only by one of a majority , the Whig press would have been uproarious , and would have dared the Tories to carry it into law ; one of a majority—only one of a majority , would have rang through " ten thousand

      paragraphs .- ^ - ( Hear , bear , and loud cheers . ) But the five ill-fated men who were convicted , by one of a majority , as being iefluenfial men in the trade , find not one sympathetic feeling in its . calamities . They must be transported for seven years from their native land , to toil , to languish , or to die , with broken hearts , in a far distant clime , and all this they are doomed to suffer by oneof a majority . The happiness of their domestic circle mustbe destroy ed , their families broken up—their wives , their tender affectionate wives , l > e comfortless , unprotected—left to sigh and gr ieve , and shed , when none but heaven sees them , the burning tears of unavailing sorrow , und their children must be bereft of their guardians—be

      rendered destitute , and probably dependent on a cold world , and all because one of a majority found these men guilty of having associated for the protection of their wages . ( Cheers . ) That is the crime of the eottonspinn ers , for that and that alon e are they convicted ; and Lord John Russell , because they are guilty of that awful misdemeanour has refused te presenta petition to the Queen forthe mitigation of their punishment . Had prisoners been guilty even of rioting , lie might have had some pretext for the high moral feeling which he assumes ; but they were not . Hacket was even 300 miles distant—he was in Manchesterwhen the dirturbance at Mile-end- and Oakbank occurred —( cheers)—yet there is no mercy for him . The man who murders the wife of his bosomthe mother who murders the little innocent who

      presses its hand upon her breast , may find mercy ; but Lord John- —cruel as the Dev of Algiers—stands like a frozen iceicle between poor Hacket and the clemency of the Queen . But let him be assailed with a Toice of thunder—it is a war bstween oppression and justice . Bouse , - then , ye working men of Britain ! petition while you can " get paper to sign , for their recall . They are husbands—they art fathers—they are sons . They are torn from all that they hold dear on earth—from distracted wives from weeping children , from heart-broken parents They are all virtuous , affectionate meat—devotedly attached to their families . Recall them thenrecall them by your united power . Humanity , heaven "bids you do so—their loving wives , and children , and parents , implore your aid . Mr . Duncan sat down amid loud and continued cheering .

      . Mr . Howle seconded the resolutions proposed by , Mr . Duncan . After excellent speeches from Mr . Hugh Alexaudeb " , who read a letter from Lord John Russell , in answer to their petition , refusing to recommend any mitigation of the sentence , an < 1 from Mr HenbyDc : kn , the meeting separated .

Wool has been constantly pushed ; up in price much faster than Yarn , whilst the advance in Pieces has been uncomV

      monly tardy , and as the ntanufaeturers state , has not reached 4 s . to 5 s . per Piece adequately remunerative prices . The advance on Moreens , Hastings , Shalloons , and four quarters wide plain backs , arid on six quarter Herinos , is , from the lowest quotation in December last , from 3 s ; to 5 s . V per Piece . The present price of Yarns is less than they can be spun for , from Wool bought at current prices .

      weeks ; and what is still worse , according to the regulation of thispr isoH , we were stripped of our own . clothes , and dressed in a uniform suit much lighter than those we . Were . accustomed to wear . ThG suit we now wear is composed of a jacket , a vest a pair of knee breeches , all of coarse grey cloth , and inari'd grey stockings , with three white stripes around the legs——one of those stripes is : in the place where garters are usually worn .- ^ - I would give you a brief account of this prison ^ the grounds around it , together with the manner in which the prisoners are employed and fed , but time will not at present permit . ¦ In deedsiriny chief
