O'CoxNOB then presented himself , anf was cheered for several minutes .. He said ,, that his heart responded to the principles of the resolution , and Ms right arm ; swore allegiance to Ma Jadgmept ( cheers ) . -Muchreluctance as he had felt at seeing Mr . Dubbleday in the chair instead of a working man , it had now vanished before the sound principles he had delivered . This day , perhaps at this hour , a woman of eighteen years of age i » about to be crowned , wifliont that ceremony she was invested with fnB executive authority , by which—in her T »

      isdom —;* he is empowered to conteoul the laws and establish new costomRjand while this extraordi nary power of revision , correction , and legal supremacy is given to an infant , Btirely we cannot be considered destructives for requiring a single vote , for those who have arrived at . the age of manhood , in the nomination of their representatives . { Great cheering . ) The question with us now ia , how the new reign shall commence . ( Hear , hear . ) Whether , in the new lease the old lessors , who are the government , shall nave a life interest in the produce of the nation , while the lessees , who are the middle class , and constituent body , hold quietly their tenure , the condition being the right of the latter to use the nonnto for their own sole use . behoof and Hpnefif . i ¦

      ^^^^^^ P ^ A ^^ V A ^ r ^ ^^^^^™ ^— ' — - ^^^ " ^ — - ^ - ^ m ~^ y ~^ ^ - ^^ —^ - ^ ^^ m- ^^ m ^^ ^ j Wl ^^^^** ^^ ^ J ( Cheers . ) Mr . O'Connor had not come there to talk of specnic grievances , or to remove any of which they complained , because the removal of a small one was invinably met by the infliction t > f . a greater , — ( great cheering , )—therefore , he should confine Mmselfto the general system of fashionable policy , by which , withfthebestmtentioiis , the monopoly oftherepreseotedorder mustincrease . The day ' sgone by when man's principle could be guessed at by his political creed ; formoney being thebasisof most men ' s politics , and theiprelent system wholly depaading upon the subjection and submisstionj of the working classes , a nch Radical , whp had a share in the national plunder , was likely to be as dangerous a man as

      the most rabid Tory , or the most inveterate -Whig-. ( Immense cheering . ) For those reasons , he-Mr . Mr . O'Connor had divided political jsociety into two classes , namely , the rich oppressor , and the poor oppressed . ( Cheers . ) Before the Reform Bill had abridged the power of the people , and augmented the political , corporate , and social authority of the newly enfranchised community , we " numbered a few wealthy men of our order , but" Whig princi p les being rotteu , national weigKt , and local distinction was given to their adherents , upon the condition , of a complete prostitution of . the trust which they hold for file people . ( Great cheering . ) Our too great intemperance , the strength of the Tory party , and the determined opposition of the Lords , are chaunted

      as apologies for the do-nothrng ministry , —( Cheers , ) while an iaspaction of their own measures , originating -svith themselves , and certainly worthy of Tory support , will teach us that the Whigs in power have dured to orignate , and not failed to carry measures , which—if out . of power—they would have acquired popularity by opposing . ( Cheers . ) Away then with the fanciful preference for either Whig or Tory . . He , Mr . O'Connor , was in alliance with two men , the one calling himself a Tory , and the other declaring that he belonged to no political creed , and there did not exist two better Radicals , two more determined haters of oppression , or two more faithful friends to the cause of liberty and the working classes : he need scarcely name , Richard

      Oastler , and the Rev . Joseph . Stephens . ( Great cheering . ) Mr . O'Connor was sustained in his pilgrimage , b _ , the support and consolation which he derived from the counsel and assurances of those unflinching and untiring friends to the cause of labour and the poor , ( cheers ) while his best strung nerves -were required to fortify him against the schemes , the tricks and the machinations of those calling themselves Radicals . ( Cheers . ) The exactitude with which politicians of the present day measure tlieir principle by the labonr market note , was in nothing more fully proved , than in the sudden rise which Mr . O'Counell experienced in the good graces of his former bitterest enemies , by his ungenerous , uncalled for , unprovokei and traitorous

      attacks upon the trades of Dublin ,. Liiglaud , ana Scotland . This -nily mouser saw how the cat jumped * This banker knew that the blood , and the sweat of the nnxepresenW-d Irish , shonld be discounted at his national counter , and he waged war against the force vrho had fought his etery battle , and who had lost by his every triumph . ( Cheers . ) Thus said Mr . O'Connor , you have the whole body of the exclusive party opposed to you , no matter how distinguished by political names , and it is to beat all , and for ever crash their power , that we are now assembled . ( Immense cheering . ) Aye , continued Mr . O'ConnoT , and we'll do it . The moral power of the people has been tried patiently , used , and exercised with judgment . It was the deliberative

      quality which taught man how to suffer , and when forbearance became a crime . ( Cheers . ) The standard of the rich man's justice , was the poor man's endurance , —^ cheers , )—and so long as the latter tamely suffered , so long would the former progressively increase that suffering . ( Cheers . ) Upon all sides the people were united to a display of their moral influence , and -when exhibited it was used by their rulers as ajastification for suppressing the rising turbuleat spirit of a discontented rabble , ( i ^ oud and co » tinuea cheering . ) When Bristol was in flames , Kecastle in ablaze , and Nottingham threatened , or when the middle classes followed in the mournful procession of departing monarchy—when npon their banners were exhibited the drooping

      head of a king , and the bloody axe of the executioner—wben the State was threatened to its very centre by a brawling faction panting for _ power to abuse it —{ immense cheering)—when the Infidel Fitzwilliam , and the Malthusian Brougham , led on the assault against the national exchequer , - and threatened a national bankruptcy , unless their party were thp banker * -r ( cheers)—that was moral force ^ peaceably , discreetly , and ¦ constitutionally used . ( Uproarious applause . ) He ( Mr . O'Connor ) had neier counselled such an exhibition of moral forcehe had ever directed the people in the legitimate use of it , and now that a new era had arrived—now that a new reign had commenced , which should -be an omen ofnew measures , suiting to new times , COUr

      forming to present circumstances , and based upon national demand—he ( Mr , O'Connor ) had , no object ion once more to parade their moralpower , and to appeal to their judgment and discretion for the promotion of those great objects , which for years iiad been sought by the working classes , and in the « vent oT moral power , jndgment , flincretion , and reason , notprodncing the anticipated result , he had no hesitation in saying that rather than submit to the reign of tyranny and lewddominion of a faction , le would lead the people to death or glory . ( Tremendous and long continued applause . ) it was superfluous to point out the progressive improvement of the rich in luxury , independence , and sloth , which maybe ludicrously contrasted with the inverse ratio

      which marked the -progressive declension of popular comforts . ( Cheers . ) Having for many years looked in vain for a . partial reform in oqr several institutions . The considerations which are now naturally suggested to us , are tkese . Whether or no , while improvements in arts and science , in mechanism , and uteratiire are rapidly hurrying on to the gaol of perfection , the science of legislation is alone to stand still ? ( Cheers . ) Whether or no , the rast and gigantic strides which society has made in latter years would sanction the application of new measures to new circumstances ? Whether or no , our form of government principaHythe manufacture of barbarous ages , is applicable to present refinatment ? Whether the disparity which distinguishes the classes of the

      human family are requisite and necessary as well for the ' hody as the soul , and whether all the necessary forms cf a good state of society are improved or damaged by that disparity ? Whether or no , a better order of things could be established by the reripro ^ cal dependency of the several orders upon each other ? Whether or no , the present system of Government is the very best which the ingennityfof man can apply to existing circumstances ? And , if not , to devise the necessary alterations . Whether or not the amount of benefit conferred on the people is commensurate with the amount of compensation paid by the people . ( Long contiuued cheering . ) Such ^ Lre' the considerations to which we must now direct ¦ bur attention ; and , if Buffering positively or negatirriy , either by longer endurance of wrong or abstifrom articles

      nence , btcome ; by use , in part necessary , we , will " make one . general muster and display of dur moralpower , which failing , we will . fight the advocates orcorruptibn and exclusion , withThe arguments of tyrants ; iut , come what will , and should we die in the last ditch , we will , at all events , leave to posterity a constitution worth living under , and worth dying for . ( Repeated and long continued cheering . ) Mr . O'Connor proceeded to point out the various anarchies which had t : rept into the constitution and showed ; that one and all proceeded from a want of Universal Suffrage . He said that never did he feel prouder than in accompanying hi ^ Irish brethren unoer the national colour and to the time of going over to the field that day . ( Cheers . ) He then explained why the English Radicals had not joined O'Connell in his weather cock career , and denounced that gentleman ^ attempt to

      establish a Catholic aristocracy , who would be as geat tyrants as the Protestants when they get power . ( Cheers from the } rish , * . ? md aye , and worse . ) Mr . O'Connor entered fully into the csoses of distress , and shewed the means of redress ; h * inveighed against slashing Harry Brougham , and his brother infidel—Lord Fitawolliam , in bitter terms ; and excited much mirm and laughter , when introducing Lord and Lady Brougham tea Workhouse , under the system wcich Universal Suffrage would produce ^ when they- would surely have a w&rdforadle Lords and -Ladiaa . Mr . O'Connor gpoke ^ at cooisiderable lengthy and sat down amid iMr . llamas cameforward to move the second ie-* plutwn . He said that notwithstanding the many attempt * to frwftrate their endeavours , the man a Northumberland . were still sure to thrir interest

The last link of confidence was snapped , andthe people viewed with suspicion , those who would not work far them , nor allow themselves to work out theirpoUticalaalyation . [ CheerS . ) No man better understood the dispositions of the colliers thanhe . ; and he told the government to be awar e , they may be led by fair means , but they could not longer be driven . He concluded by moving the

      resolution—2 . That this meeting further believes that the only security against the corruption of the few , and the degradation of the many , is to give to the people equal rights , social'and political—by the exercise . of which they will improve their condition , acquire knowledge , and , by experience , learn wisdom . That to obtain these right * , it is necessary that the elective franchise should be exercised without loss or injnry , which can only be effected by secret , voting ; that as all classes and interests » houlds be qualJy represented , no other qualification ought to be rsquirsd from Members of Parliament , than the choice of the constitnency ; and to purify the venal stream of corruption as speedily as possible , Parliament * ought to be elected annually . He was loudly cheered . i

      Mr . M'Kenzie rose t * second the resolution . He said that he was sorry to be obliged to speak feelingly upon the question of secret voting , but so long as the law of primogeniture made the lawmakers the providers lor then * idle sons and relatives , so long woiud ihe landlord « ay vote for me » : that I m « y support my feinily , or quit the premises . ( Cheers . ) He , as an elector , had proposed a vote of thanks to Mr . Gladstone , and received his discharge upon , the following morning . ( Shame . ) It wa ^ hot the first foolish thing he had done ; he had subscribed to Daniel O'ConneU for nine years , everyyear , till within the last , when he knew he waa a traitor . ( Cheers , and don ' t bother us with the fellow , —to the anesdon . ) The .-qnestionL then is , thatMil tfaca mannas the vote , the ballot would be an injustice ; but when all are enfranchised ^ the ballot will be necessary . ( Cheers . ) - ! . Mr . PiUKER came forward to move the third re ¦

      solution— ¦• -.:. 3 . That as Members of Parliament oQght to be the delegates of the people to secure the honest performance of their duties , it is the qpinibn of this meeting that a return shonld be made to the old custom of paying their Representatives in Parliament . ( He said that the thing he wished to see was fujl grown bearded law makers , instead of babies in smock frocks-rmett who were worthy of their hire- ^ ( cheers )—and when we paid our own money , our own business would bs done ; but so long as others paid bur money for professedly doing our business , —( hear , hear , hear)—it would be directed , to personal service , and individual aggrandizement . Ch ^ rs . ] Cicero was a wise raan , and he did not think that the ruling power was without controul ; he said that the Romans ruled the world , and the women ruled the Romans : and , therefore , they

He moved ttle resolution amid nauch applause , and Mr . Aldeb rose to second it . He said , if you get your work gratuitously done , it will be badly done . It is not plunderers that we require , who in default of good -wages for honest service , will be like , the Scotchservantindifferent about pay , as he would be always helping himself . { Loud cheers , arid laughter . ] We must return to the practice of sendiog working men to represent worn ing men , and , of paying them according to their performance . —

      ( Cheers . ) Air . Chari / to * then presented himself to move the Birmingham , petition , which has appeared in our columns , and was loudly cheered . We regret , however , that this talented gentleman moved the adoption of the petition without any prefatory remarks , in consequence of tlie length to which the proceedings had gone . 4 . That the Birmingham petition be adopted by thi ? meeting , and that a copy of it be h-ent to each town and village in the district for signature ; and that when signed , it be presented to the House of Commons by Thomas Attwood , Esq ., M . P . for Birmingham " , and that Messrs . Wakley and Fitlden be reqnested to support the same .

      Mr . Lowry , from South Shields , came forward to second the adoption of the . petition , and was most cheerfully greeted . He said that he rejoiced to see the grand display of moral force , the forerunner of physical force , if it should be required . Many of his friends at Shields were baited vcitb the bone of sensuality , if they would absent themselves from the meeting . The Gooksons had provided a dinner for the poor out of their own money . ( Cheers and laughter . ) Yes , out of the sick fund . ( Renewed laughter . ) What a munificent host ! and yet could he not prevail upon the good men of Shields to prefer a meal for the body to a feast for the mind . They had heard much of physical force ; . they had seen audaciously paraded before them , the tinseled

      soldier , paid with their money . ( Cheers . ) . Yes , the Commander of the Military had dared to disturb the quiet of this meeting by a parade of bU military force . ( Cheers . ) this was the omen of the new reign , ( cheers , ) and let the jpeople take a lesson from it and henceforth back their moral force with phyrfcal power ; let every man in future come to public meetings with a musket in his hands , ( repeated cheers , ) lest he might require it .

      let us teach the Monarch , that she but holds it m trust , and that when her protection goes , onr allegiance follow * . ( Great cheering . ) Money-mongers have given her a golden Crown at the expense of the People ; but the people can , and will if necessary take back the Crown .

      was under a blue coat or a black coat ass under a ; red coat , and the only reason , under his present : ex-CttBment , that he held the people in ^ . subjection , was because he had-not arms to meet the foe at the moment * The cavalry and infantry marched in the front and rear of the meeting , cutting the body into three sections—the Mssing' and attempts to frighten the horses was going to a great length , when Mr . O'Connor mounted upon a cross bar of the hustings and hurled defiance at the cowardly assailants . He promised them and the people that their ungentlemanlike and -unconstitutiDnal conduct , should be brought before the House of Commons , and

      notwithstanding his best endeavours , many rushed from the p latform to bring the Commanding Officer to task , when the gallant gentleman rode off . It was touch and go , and if a shot had been fired Newcastle would have blazed . When ., the -military were gone Mr . O'Connor past a high eulogium upon Mr .
