      TRIUMPH OF CHARTISM OVER O'CONNELLISM . GREAT PUBLIC MEETEXQ I >~ THE BAZAAR ( From the Scottish Patriot . ) The result of the padted meeting on the subject of Lords Stanley and Morpetto " 8 Bills for Ireland , held in the Justiciary Hail , on Tuesday evening last , d atermined the Chartist * , upon calling & real public meeting of the inhabitants of Glasgow , on Thursday , the 4 th , in the Tv . « nr , the largest eoYered place In the city , to take an expression of public feeling upon those measures ; also to consider the propriety of addressing her Majesty to dismiss the present Ministry . Before speaking of tbe proceeding * , ¦« may observe that the arrangements of the Chartists -were of the most honourable and manly description . The hoar of Meeting » as rigidly adhered to- —the door * betas opened cnly a tew minutes before tight o ' clock . No tickets of admission -were had

      recourse to upon Hat ooeasion , except those tor the hustings , whieh were epee to all parties . Long before the hour of meeting , Candleriggs-street was filled by « a immense -crowd of Chartists , OConneilites , and other inhabitants , asd such was the press for front standing places , that in eight minutes after the opening of the door , the Bazaar , which is calculated to hold € . 000 persons , was filled in eTery part . The excite ment , ss the different parties crowded into the meeting , was of the most intense description . And bye-and-by e , m the leading Chartists and O'Coonellites took their places on the hustings , the cheering , hissing , and hooting , was tremendous . The supporters of O'Connell sad Whiggery might be distinguished by their sivage yelling , and other brutal noises , and by tbeir fiercelooking cou&tenances a&d gestures . It was dear

      that extraordinary exertions had been used by the Catholic party to bring in their adherents . Hundreds at workers at the railways and other districts , where digging and cutting operations are going on , had been brought into the meeting . They literally came In droves , and their after conduct clearly proved that they must hare had previous instructions to yell and hoot down eTery speaker known for his Chartist senti ^ merits . Eren after the commencement of the business , tfceir own leaders had evidently no sway over them . How different the conduct of the real inhabitants of Glasgow , and more particularly the adherents to Chartism ! Nothing could more clearly illnstrate their perfect state of organisation and high moral feeling than the accuracy and attention with -which they answered every advice of theii friends on the hustings , and the

      orderly manner in which they conducted themselves . " B-ui we will allow the proceedings to speak for themselves . The OConneliites had mustered pretty strong on the hustings , and secured nearly the whole of the front seats . The getters-up of tbe meetJDg , however , . speedily made a way for themselves , and were soon clustered around the chair . On the appearance of Messrs . Ross , Moir , Cullen , Rodger , Jack , JPattison , Thomson , and K . Malcolm , Jan ., they were received with hisses and groans from the O'Connellitfes , which , however , -were drowned in one tremendous cheer from the Chartists . This first ebullition of feeling' shewed the real strength of the Radicals , and the weakness of

      their opponents . The Repealers , however , had determined upon moving a Chairman of their o- ? ra ; and now & Bcene of tumult ensued -which baS-s description , solely caused by the untameable and disorganised state of the Irish , -who appeared to care neither -fo * th © advice of their leaders nor opponents . By dint of pare strength of lungs , ho-wever , they were brought to give something like a hearing to Messrs . Rodger , Brjson , and other gentlemen on tbe hustings , who managed to make them comprehend that a show of hands would be taken for a Chairman , and that one for each party Bhould be propessd . Four tellers being appointed , two for each party ,

      Mr . Betsox was moved and seconded by the Repealers , as their Chairman . On the motion of Mr . Jack , seconded by Hr Malcolm , Mi . George Rcss tt&s proposed as

      Chairman . The vote being taken—notwithstanding the waving of hats and caps by the O'Connellites—there were two to one hands for Mr . Ross—Mr . Bryson and a number of bis supporters on the tastings , admitted what -was apparent to every person with eyes in his bead—that Mr . Ross had the vote . It was argued , however , that since the taking of the Yule , a great number tad-come into tie meenng , and that at this time it \ ras no more than eught o ' clock . To quell their idle clamours the Chartists divided the meeting . This was done in about

      two minutes , those for Mr . Ross taking tbe right and front of the hustings , —those for Mr . Bryson being contained in the corner to the left The miserable minority for Mr . Bryson occupied no more than about one-fifth of the Bazaar . Tbe Catholics now saw with regret the bad effects of their cry for a division , tbe whole of their Bnpperters being now by themselves- Mortified by the appointment of Mr . Ross , who now took the chair amidst three tremendous cheers from the immense mass wbicb . filled the whole sp ± ce except the left-handed corner , the Repealers keps up a continued shouting and yelling .

      Mr . Betstox , having stood up on tbe chair , annrraiicad to tlia Repealers that Mr . Ross was duly elected chairman , and expressed a hope that they -would « how , by their peaceable and gentlemanly behaviour , that they respected themselves , and loved their country , and that they would give every speaker a fair hearing . Several Irishman loudly exclaimed against this advice , as tyranny of ths worst kind , and said that they ¦ would not submit to it . This they afterwards proved by their howls and otfcer brute noises . The conduct of this party on the left hand corner formed a striking contrast to the calm and peaceable demeanour of the rest of the meeting . About this time a figLt commenced in tie midst of them ; and two Chartists , who had presumed to cry out in favour of Mr . Ross , were brutally attacked by aboat a Ecere of moral fcirce men . A strong posse of police , however , cot over amontst them , and

      succeeded in apprehending three or few R-pealers -who had been most active with their fists . This occasioned some interruption , and Captain Miller now saw tb « necessity of stationing a best of bis men to keep the boys in order . The " fact of abont tnirty policemen being stationed amongst tbe Repealers , and only two or tkree on the outskirts of the rest of the meeting , Will give our readers some idea of the conduct and appearance of the Irishmen , and of the orderly conduct of the Chartists . Although the noise waa very great' during the whole evening , several of tbe speakers were heard at a considerable distance from the hustings . Mr . Ross addressed the meeting as " Irishmen , Englishmen , and Scotchmen . " He thanked them for the honour they had conferred upon him at this time , and he trusted that all parties tronld shew , by their eonduot that night , the value they place-1 in their principles , and their confidence in the justice of their cause . He then intrtxineed

      Mr . R Malcolk . jun ., -who , after a short address , expressive of his desire to see a better display of feeling on tbe part of the unenfranchised of Ireland and Scotland , and his regret that such a meeting as tLat held in the Justiciary Hill should evtr be recorded in the annals of Scottish agitation , read the first resolution : —" That while this meeting denounces , in the strongest terras , the unconstitutional attempt of tbe Tory pirty , headed by Lord Stanley , to abridge the franchise in Ireland , by an Act entitled the Begistra : i ju Bill , we at the same time cannot avoid exortssing our settled conviction , that until the people of Ireland shaii have taken their stand upon Bound politic . il principles , instead of following in the wake of faction , they never can hope to be able successfully to defend the shreds

      of political rights , granted them by the Riform Bill , far less assert ani obtain a full measure of justice , in the shape of a fair and equitable franchise . " He denounced , in tbe strongest terms , Lord Stanley ' s Re 2 istratkra Bill—showed that the Radicals of Scotland had always sympathised with their Irish brethren—and thai their interests , in the question of as extended Suffrage . ' were one and the same . He looked upon every stab ' the liberties of the people of Ireland ' as an indication of \\ big or Tory feeling towards tbe people of the toree eauntrieg . and he would have Scotchmen and Irishmen to reflect that , in their determined nnion against the common enemy , the landed aristocratic t-ppressor , consisted the safety and liberty of each , and their power to resist the encroachments of tvranny .

      Mr . John Homer seconded tbe resolution in a short ana energetic si > e ~ eh , also expressive of svmp-thv With the wrongs of h eland , and of determined hosttit ' * to her Tory oppressors . The resolution bric ^ pat , was carried unanimously . Mr . W . C PaThsos , moved the next resolution ' - — " That while this meeting expresses its hearty aiv proval of every measure haying for Its otr ^ Ci the extension of tbe Suffrage , are cannot bot look " upon Lord Worpein ' s Irish . Registration Bill , wfcich proposes a £ 5 Suffrage with a fourtet * rears- jease qualification , us

      neither more nor less than another contemptible effort nf the Whig Ministry to peptrtaate their Administration at the expence of the cause of Justice , and -vroald call npon every honest man to -aid oar « f rtiors to establish the principles of the Charter , viz : —Universal Suffrage . Annual Parliaments , and the Ballot , as tbe law in England , Scotland , and Irelasd—and would further declare that no measure or agitation short of Justice ahall ever receive our ceuntenanee or support . " He exposed , with hi * accustomed ability , the nature of Lord ilorpeth ' s Bill for Ireland .

      Mr . Jack seconded the motion , and showed that the elective franchije in Ireland , by this m-Mure of Lord Jiorpeth * , would be almost entirely vested in the hands of the landlord . Mr . Dosellt moved an amendment to the effect , that Morpeth- a Bill was a good and useful measure , and that it ought to be supported . This amendment being seconded by another crconnellite , tbe Chairman put it Vo Uie meeting , when the ciuner in the Mt-hBid come * , TOiea ior it unanimously amidst the moss vociferous el&moursfor the amendment , and the rest of the mee - ing as unanimously for the motion .

Jack : — " That this meeting agree to Petition the Commons ' House of Parliament to address her Majesty to dismiss her present Ministers . " > 1 t . Green mored , and Mr . Donnelly seconded , an amendment in favour of keeping Ministers in office . The motion was carried as before . Mr . Rodger moved , and Mr . Jack seconded , tbe next motion , which declared that the meeting in the Justiciary Hall was a meeting of a party , and not of tbe inhabitants ef Glasgow . An amendment in the shape of a protest , by Mr . Green , was made to this metien , which was also put and carried . Moved by Mr . W . C . Pattison , seconded by Mr . Malcolm , jun .:

      —" That this meeting convey & cordial vote of thanks to Captain Miller , City Marshall , and the Police , tor their manly and praiseworthy exertions in preserving the peace of the meeting in the Justiciary Hall , on Tuesday evening last . " After a rot * of thanks to the Chairman—and three cheers for the Charter—three for the incarcerated Chartists—also three groans for Lord Stanley ' s Bill , and for Daniel O'Connell , the meeting separated . Glasgow , March 2 . A public meeting was called here on Tuesday , the 2 nd instant , ( two evenings before the above-mentioned meeting ) , which was held in the Justiciary Hall , to adopt a petition in favour of Lord Morpeth ' s Bill . The Catholic elerey , the middle classes , and the whole of

      the tools of Dan ' s clique , wera present The Chartists of Lanarkshire had called a meeting to take place on the Bame evening , but having found that the Whig meeting was called on tbe same evening , to " steal a march" upon them , they agreed to adjourn their own meeting , rather fh * " allow public opinion to be stifled in this way . The O'Conneliites had announced that their meeting would commence at eight o ' clock , bnt at six they bad from 200 to 300 of their friends present , who were admitted by ticket ! The tickets were marked " Committee , " with two stars above tbe word , two of which came into the hands of Mr . J . Colquhoun , who held one up in the face of Priest Enry , who was speaking , and called upon the Chairman ( Bp . Murdoch ) to give him a hearing ,

      but in this he could not succeed . Mr . Colquhoun determined not to be baffled without an effort to be heard , and he mounted the table , with the intention of demanding an explanation from the Chairman as to who the parties were who dare issue those tickets . Immediately he did so , a scene of confusion ensued which is not to be dtscribed . The upper end of the table and the jury box was surrounded by Dan ' s friends , frem whom a universal rush was made towards Mr . C . His friends at tbe foot urged him to keep his ground ; but he , seeing what must follow , extricated himself from the ruffians who had just got hold of him , and leaped among his own friends . By this time the business was said to be closed ; and on the gentry on the bench rising , one of them leaped on the table below , and

      made an indiscriminate attack on those in front , cutting one man in tbe face before Captain Miller , who was standing on the tbe table , could get at him . Tbe Captain seized the wretch by the collar , and pitched him on tbe floor , in a manner that indicated the wortby Captain did not mistake his man . A boy , who got up on the top of the jury-box , was seized by the hair , and dragged by one of the moral-ioTCQ gents , to the execration of all but fiends prestnt . AnDther young man was also abominably treated by some of those "wretchesmen they cannot be called . The v * ry priests on tbe bench were among the worst . Dan may be proud of them . There cculd not be less than 900 in the hall , though it is only calculated for , at most , " 00 : there could not be anything short of 1 , 500 outsifle .

      It is needless to add , that the whole meeting was carried in tbe usual Whig style ; and the Right Rev . Gentleman refused to hear any but bis own party .
