      Bbothes Chabiist Jfoa-EiscioBS , —On Monday Btxt you-will be called upon to perform , / or pesrse > t * j , B most acred doty ; no le » a duty ttan to declare vbetber or no there is & majority of non-electors over Uie electors in ttie great county of York , "who consider thenuelTM entitled to , and capable of exercising , the Franchise . Thai , and simply that , is the question which yoa will be called upon to decide , and beyond lost one point yon have not the slightest interest Brother * , bear this- in mind . Oa Monday , for tie first time , yoa will meet the faction tixtfe handed , mind that . The Whio and the Tories

      cannot unite against you . Whig hands only will be beld up for the old hack and cradled Lord . Tory bands , and only Tory hands , will be held np for the heii to title and his chureh-sapporting coadjutormind that ! Therefore , if you allow tiiem to defeat you single-handed , th » y will call you a faction / and not a party—a small minority , instead , of nearly the \ rhole . Again , bear in mind that yoa have men of your own order ; and ah ! here is the damning spot , with spouting lip-worshipping Democrats . Must I tell you your great fault ? Yes , I must , and mlL When the trial fairly comes be

      tween tinselled folly and fustianed honour , then are you REfeasied of your own pOTerty ; then are yon jealous ofdistinguisbingyour own order ; and then does rivalry that demon of discord and foe to liberty , step in and haunt your coward souls . Oh ! Yorkshiremen ! -work . ing men of Yorkshire ! you -who would hold up nearly one miliion hands for me on Monday , -why bold up one less for Pitiethley and Barney , -who fully represent me , and who are my brothers in the cause of the people ? But do&t mistake me . I do not mean to chide you with not hating done your duty , and more than your duty . Yes , beaten taowa you have , and

      that the poor man who braves the employees frown and loss of work , and who is compelled to listen to -the , bowl of poverty froin the lo » ed mother ef-his loved ' children , has far outbid me in the practical ¦ workings of Democracy , and has Tery far outbid their rulers , who prostitute themselves to tbe support of a clap-trap to maintain office and emolnment . Yes , mj friends , the last \ rord is the patriot' s inducement ; for deprive c 5 . ee of emolument and then y « u ¦ woul d have to ballot - fir Caiiret Ministers and servants of the crown . O . ' , it is a fearful thing te be compelled to say " either ' remain willing slaves , or risk all the chanceB of being

      made first paupers and then martyrs . "" Yes , that is a pill foT the l £ . zj Democrat , who tas an interest in your Eurport , to swallow ; but , in the present instance , I can protect you . Thousands upon thousands rrUl hare no alternative tut to appear plumed in the feathers of £ h . Tcry on Monday , and I thank my stars that I can ; suggest an alternative for protecting you against 1 the rich oppressors . Should they attempt to dirfs yon for the slave market , let ali who Lave no ; alternative but starvation or the 5 ar ? mark mennt the £ ure mark , and when they mingle in the throng , let each , like Napoleon ' s old guard , tut not from

      affection , rut the ccckade in the bottom of his knapsack , tsd there leave it , sad l = t all , all , each and all , hold op both hands against the rich oppressar and for the poor oppressed . Be ' . ieve me , my friends , that bctwrca ilerptvh and 2 dilton , and 'Wortley and Denison , there is not a pin ' s point for j / oa to chc-oit Taey are all , one and all , lice upon th ; ¦ beetle , Exd system-made enemies to those whom they taTe oLe and all sold to the task-aiasters to relieve their own estates of their fleshy burthen . Hear , then , my advice , Ero : hcrs : if yoc must Bppear slaves in outward and visible si £ n , do not be so in inward feeling ; bold np both hands , misd boib , fjr Pitkethley and Huney . Spread them like the antlers of the pioud ttag "shen he ci tries the tyrant ' s approach , and locks around for a retreat from his pur-tiers . Do that , and when done , should the Returning O £ ; er do as the blind Sheriff of Yoik appe&Ts to have done , should he see kid skin and be blind to blisters , jils of in one body to the rear , and if you axe good men and tree , yoa will outnumber both factions .

      My Brothers , these are trying times ; these are times when money , intimidation , and influence , will be used te persuade the people that houses , and not flash and blood , ARE THE PEOPLE , ARE England's strength , England ' s wealth , and England ' s glory . Brothers , these , in the true sense of the words , are " Times to try men's souls . " This is the jubilee of corruption , ani mosoyoly . This is a period ¦ wbta those without votes are bat so much -filling Bluff in the anli-nsUortal -w ^ ll -srhiefc tyrants have raised rotted the city of the oligarchs . You , in this jubilee , having no power , will be mere spectators , and tha man who ho ] . ' s bis own , without being swayed , allured , or dizzl ^ i bj the pomp of power or shamed into cont » mp £ of poverty & £ d the temporary ineffectiveness of his party , is the real patriot

      SjIes men must be for eTer on the surface and casnot hear a dip . I can diva with you and remain in ihe mud with von , and bide my time for again r-siug to the surface . Before t *" s £ ay wetk their triumph will be OT = T , ar . i ours will be- ^ in . Rampant now , in six cars oce faction will see its weakness and death in its streruth : while the » ther triil see its resuscitation in the form in wh rh it eoaimitted suicide in 1532 , in our breath and in the folilinsnt of its then pledges .

      0 br .-thtrs , the Tories have been great fools , and Peel has been for ;« d to the stake by the impetuosity of hie hungry peck , who could not longer endure the thxuchts of the fat Baronet feeding on the sly , Tfhile they were held bs . ck from the jaess-tTcugh . That lenity which TVhig audacity insured for them , will not longer be extended to them .

      I am a Chartist and nothing more , and I have kepi my hands free from T--ry gold—my mind free from Tory prejudice , and inr heart fall of Tory hatred , "which nothing bat the entire annihilation of that factica . ever can or ever thai ; obliterate . Brothers , the next attempt will be to divide you into Whig-Chartism and Tory-Chartists .

      Brothers , mind , when the jubilee is over , we fall into cask once mon . We belong to the non ^ elective infittenee , they belong to the elective power , mind that ; and , above all things , beat in mind , that the part which many zealous but incompetent leaders took in the Reform agitation forced them imperceptibly from the bead of the people to the tale of the faction ; and should any of our leaders—not profiting by the lesson—attempt to continue , in earnest or from shame , what they commenced without thought or guilt , then we most let them fall overboard , that is , where the non-electora have taken put with one or other of the factions , for local reasons best known to themselves , and in which they were perfectly justifiable , should they hi such cases continue , in consequence , to favour one faction above the other , we must chastise them , by exposing them , when argument shall have failed .

      Now , Brothers , mind Monday next is , without any comparison , to be the greatest day that ever Yorkshire saw . Fustian agsinst broad cloth ! The dignity of nature against the distinction of wealth I The caus < of the people against their united oppressors ! The poor man sending between the nobles of the land , and appealing to the poor m a jury ! Can any . man contemplate a more heart-rtrrring socae f Can any man bear the torturing reflections which absence must cause . No , no ; " we have no traitors . But to leave nothing undone , let this be distinctly understood , that every stagle band held up for Whig or Tory is held up against Chartism . Mind that . It will not do to hope to place

      Wortley over Morpeth , or Milton over Demson , oi vice verso . No , no ; there is the errur . Not a Whig or Tory hand will be held up for honest Pitkethly , and honest Hsrney . Not one kid-skin glove for either . Therefore , let not a blister appear as a willing brand by being beld up for Whig or Tory . Of all things mind that . We are in tbrw parties , aud we m&st stand alone ; and I implore you to avaid all disturbance and riot . It is a shocking thing to shed blood , or to lie down with the reflection tbat we have inflicted a wound in the heat of blood , even uuon an enemy . Keep you

      the peace . Bat should they attack you , let your tactics be , firstly , self-defence ; and instead of knocking off heads , pluck the birds of their feathers , and thus you become , like Lord Ross's cocks , all on one side , and won't fight ; but should you be brutally attacked , you must fight like devils in selfdefence ; and should military aid be called in , upon no account whatever attack , assault , or oppose them , because , beli * ve Die , that a quirk of a Tory Atloniev-General w ^ uM turn it into treason , and would implicate the members of every Chartist Association As ACCESSORIES .

      We will have now , for the first time , an opposition in the House of Commons ; aud to push them forward must now be our tactics , and down , down , down with the devils in hell , must be our cry . Thtn , Brothers , on Monday , March , march , Bradford and Halifax . Why , iuy lads , il * n'i yon march forward in order ? March , miirch , Sheffield and Hudder&aeld , A . I the good ChartUts are over the border . Many a banner spread Flutters above your head , Man a crest that is famous in story ; March and make ready , then , Sons of each Yorkshire glen , Fight for yourselves , and your own Charter ' s glory . A . ud when you come to the ground , let your cry

      be—Charge , Chartists , charge . ' on , Chartists , on ! Freeman , slave , and every mother ' s son . Mind , have the white flags on the hustings , hold np your hands thus—both hasds—when they , the flags , are raised from your own quarters , and keep them up till they are lowered ; and that every blister held up against the cause of liberty , justice , truth , and tlie people , may tarn to & cancai or a running sore , is the prayer of Your friend and brotlipr , FiiAnovs O'Connor .

      P . & Hurrah for Pitkethly and Harney ! Women , send every man to the hustings ; kick them out of bed , and never let their hands near you again if they put one rivet in your lovely children ' s chains : hiss them off to do your wort , if they won't do their o « n . Brothers , stand by me and the cause now , and I will stand by you , aud then see who are the Tories , who the Whigs , a-nd who the Chartists . I will not give in an inch . All who are for a compromise ; let them strike at once : our battie-cry must now be " Down with tbeTOBiES . andhurrahforthe CharteT ! " and once again , brother Chartists , let me caution you against any violence against man or his property . I cannot conceive a

      more contemptible fool than the silly man who professes to fight the battle of knowledge against ignorance , of right against might , and of liberty agaiust tyranny , pointing to seme broken panes of glass or delapidated ruin as his argument Be assured tlut force will be their hist resource , and what Vicy rely upon cannot be good for you ; while the use of it against you will call forth such a resistance as I promise them will very soon silence the cannon's roar , and bring them to a , proper sense of their weakness , and of the little value of gunpowder arainst a thoroughly

      united people . O . ' that every Chartist had the key of his own store house in bis own pocket , and that store bouse was full of the produce of his cum labour , and then tyranny would lose its strongest hold upon the poor man ' s service , when the infernal decree , " so Satceday mget , so Monday M 0 B . NIXG" would lose its infitience . That is my Chartism , and that Chartism is not in the land of Russia , Prussia , Poland , G-rmany , America , France , Turkey , Holland , or Belgium , but in the land of England , Ireland , Scotland and Wales .

( Loud and continued cheers . ) He was not only on the hustings , but be told tbem be would be their member . iRenewed cheers . ) Mr . D'Israelimade some happy hits respecting the cheap

      bread bugbear , and inquired if cheap Government , of which the Whigs had prated so loudly , consisted in shoals of coinmi 8 sionersbips created for briefless barristers , if tbe Poor Law were in accordance with the wishes of the people , and if an increase of taxation and a bankrupt Exchequer spoke wtill of tbe cheap Government of the Reformed Ministry . After referring , in terms of the strongest cofidence to the success of himself and friend , the Hon . Gantleman concluded amidst loud cheers from the Conservatives , and cries of disapprobation from the factory slaves .

      GLOUCESTER ( CITY ) -TuESDAr . The nomination for this city took place this morning at tbe Shire Hall . There are four candidates , namely , the two Members , Mr . H . T . Hope , Tory , and Mr . Phillpotts , Whig , aud Captain M . F . F . Berkeley , who formerly represented this city in the Whig interest , but who is now commanding the Thunderer man of war , in the Mediterranean , and Viscount Loftus , eldest ? on of the Marquis of Ely , a Tory . Mr . Hope and Lord Loftus have carefully canvassed all the electors , and the supporters of Captain Berkeley and Mr . Phillpotts ( who declines making a personal canvass ) have also been most strenuous in their exertions for their respective friends , and each party express confidence as to the final reault .

      At ten o ' clock , the doors of the hall were thrown open , and in a short time the large room was filled by the friends of th& respective candidates . Preliminary proceedings having been gone through , The Sheriff , Win . Washbourne , Esq ., said the electors were called upon to elect two citizens to represent them in the next Parliament . Mr .

      potts and Captain Berkeley . A poll was demanded on the part of Mr . Hope and Lord Loftus , to commence at eight o ' clock next morning . * The meeting was very fully attended , aud during the whole time there was much noise and confusion .

      PONTEFRACT-Monday . The candidates for this borough are R . M . Milnes , Esq ., late Conservative Member for the borough ; Lord Poilingtou , the new Conservative candidate ; and John Gully , Esq ., formerly M . P . for iontefract . ' ?••' Henrv Taylor , Esq ., Recorder of PonTefract , proposed Mr . Milnes ; Mr . Carter , of Knottingley , seconded the motion . William Hepworth and Robert Smith , Esqrs . proposed Lord Pollington .

      Mr . Wm . Monkhouse , seconded by Mr . Mackson , proposed Mr . Gully . Both the Conservative candidates warmly denounced the pettifogging of the Ministers , and cautioned the people against thdr free trade nostrums . They also elicited loud cheers by declaring that they would labour for an ; abolition of that part of the New Poor Law which refuses out-door relief , and separates man and wife . Mr . Gully defended the free trade , and reminded the electors that he , too , had voted against the New Poor Law baetiles .

      The show of hands was in . favour of Mr . Gully . The poll opens to-morrow . The presumption is strongly in favour of both Conservatives . Mr . Gully has greatly weakened his popularity by bis coquetry with Halifax .

      GREENWICH-TUESDAY . To-day having been appointed by the High Constable of Greenwich , for the nomination of the candidates to serve the borough in Parliament , the friends of the respective parties began to assemble between nine and ten o ' clock in front of the hustings , attended by bands of music , and displaying banners and flags . The proceedings on the hustings were carried on in dumb show , for neither High Constable , nor mover nor seconder , nor candidate , was heard six feet from the spot where each gentleman stood ; nay , so great was the noise occasioned by shouting , and hiasing , and huzzaing , we doubt much whether they heard their own voices . Before the precept or Bribery Act

      was read , a gentleman on the hustings near whom we stood , said , " I doubt very much whether the speeches will be listened to ; " a pretty good proof that there was something like concert inthismatttr , and that the plan of confusion had been previously resolved upon . Be that is it may , such was the fact as we have stated . It is , however , but fair to add that there was more of good than ill-humour manifested , and beyond a few struggles between the ftas ; - bearers for the best positions , nothing of party strife was exhibited in front of the hustings , and when the dumb show had termisatc-d , the parties , with their bands , proceeded tothe « ommittee-rooms , asd thenes they paraded aud played through the principal streets for the remainder of the day .

      Mr . Barnard was proposed and seconded by Mr . Vowler and Mr . George Smith . Capt . Dundas was nominated aud seconded by Mr . Harwood and Capt . Fead . Sir G . Cockburn was proposed by Sir Thomas Maryan Wilson , and seconded by Mr . C . Enderby . The show of hands having been declared by tho returning officer in favour of Mr . Barnard and Capt . Dundas , a poll was demai : ded by Sir George Cockburn , to commence at eight this morning and close at lour . Tlie whole proceedings , from the reading of the precept to the granting the poll , did not occupy more than about an hour .

      During the proceedings a heavy shower of rain fell , but it cooled not the ardour of . the mal-contents , for they coutinued to pour out their vociferations with as much vehemence—even , if possible , with moreas when the sun shone forth brilliantly , and enlivened the scene .

      WALSALL—Tuesday . The nomination has just closed here , and I have not time to do more than say so . Charles Foster , Esq ., proposed Mr . Gladstone , -who vrss seconded by Mr . S . Perks . Mr . Mills proposed Mr . Scott , Mr . Brettall seconded the nomination . On a show of hands the Mayor declared it in favonr of Mr . Scott . The polling takes place to-morrow . WENLOCK-Monday . There being no opposition , the two former candidates ( both Tories ) were this day duly elected . The Hon . Geo . Cecil Forrister was proposed by Mr . Milton , of Shipton ; seconded by Mr . Rose , of Coealport . J . M . Gaskell , Esq ., was proposed by W . Anstice , Esq ., of Madley ; seconded by Edmund Owen , Esq ., of the Moor , near Ludlow . Both candidates spoke at some length , and were subsequently chaired .

      NEWARK-Monday . At ten o'clock this morning , the electors of Newark assembled at the hustings erected in the marketplace , to nominate candidates for the representation of that borough in Parliament .
