      TO Open the Eyes of tho Deluded "World , I ask will any Medical Gentleman , from any quarter , contrast the honesty and success of his Practice , as Surgeon , Physician , and Accoucheur , with that of mine , during tho last Twenty-eight Years ? Surely this is the right way to test merit , medicine , and men . Thank Providence that all honest Lawyers and Doctors , and Clergy , are no longer my Persecutors , and the r own enemies , but , like other honest men , as thc : r grateful letters to mo , to publish their Cures , amply testify—are acknowledging the necessity cif Universal Suffrage in Medicine , as in Politics , in order to establish the Health of Maukiud .

      PXIODLESBRO ' . —The discnssion on the Corn Laws was resumed la ? t Tuesday evening , and was kept up with great spirit for nearly two hours . The speaking was chkfiy confined between Mr . Holenshead , a Chartist , and Mr . Bormond , a grocer , & . c , the latter observing that he thought , he knew a deal about the workings of this law , and proceeded to give a very lively description of the evils resulting from them . As the conclusion of his address , be hoped the Chartists would at . once endeavour to hare them repealed , and was aboui to move a- resolc . ion to that effect , irhen Mr . Anderson stept forward , and said iha : be regretted he had coi beea in at : i : e /• oaunencemei : ; of the discussion , as it deprived him if taking a part , as he would liked to hav-e done ; but , although he bad not taken . a prominent part in

      the business of this evening , he had heard nothing to induce him to charge his opinion . ( Hear , hear . ) He would , thirefere , movo the eameTr ^ olutiou as he had done on tho previous evening . The resolution was to the effect— " That the Corn L '^ ws , and every other bad law ough : to be repealed , but , in order 10 make a lasting DeneSt to this working classes of this couniry , it ought to be accompanied with an extension ot' the franchise to ihe limits contained iu the People ' s O . arter , so that when the poor man go ; & cheap loaf " , he might have a vote to keep it in his possession . " Mr . Bormond opposed this reso ' atJos , as he said it involved another question . After some desultory conversation , it was agreed to acjourn the debate till next Tuesday night , when it is expected to be finally closed .

He opened the proceedings in a neat -:: ie s seech , and conclnded by calling on the c ; c ^ i ; cs to give a report of the stat e of Char-* : 5 Ei in tha various localities , each of which gave cheering accounts , but- all complained for the want of agitation , expressing his opinion thai if a course of agivation was kept up , it would

      have a great effect in the inrthereiice ot the . principles cf Universal Suffrage . After a considerable deal of discus-ion , the following resolution was uuaaimously a

      dav fortnight for the purpose of forming a central committee to manage the affairs of the district . " Proposed by Mr . J . Anderson ; seconded by Mr . S . Fox . 4-Ji . " That J .

Parker , snbjcct , the causes which led to the American and French Revolutions . We have the pleasure to state that the ireture was well attended , -and most attentively listened to , and the cause mest prosperously proceeds in this dis » iic ; . At the conclusion of the lecture , reference was made to the newspapers , and to a bill extensively posted round the

      neighbourhood , headed '' . Newcastle and Ga-it--bead Anti-Corn Law and Free Trade Association , " in which it was stated that being of op : n : cn that ir- wa 3 essentially necessary thai the working classes should be placed in possession of sound and useful poiiticil information , they had appointed Mr . Daniel Liddle to grre lectures round the district ,. A lecture vris to be delivered in the Primitive Methodist C-ipsl , Oasebam , on Friday evening , at seven o ' clock , when the Ck&riists of Oussbarn resolved to attend to get all the information they possibly couid .

The lecturer appeared to be hijrhly delighted at the prc-sencs of so numerous an audience , the chapel beiug completely SLled . His lecture wa . 3 listened to throughout with the greatest attention , but at tSe conclusion Mr . Wra . Parker rose and objected to the accuracy of the lecturers facts and position , and requesting to discuss the subject ; this , much to the praise and credit of the trustees of the chapel , was by them

      agreed to , but most evidently to the great chsgrin of the lecturer and friends , when after very len-r'hened discussion , which was ably Enstainwi by Messrs . Brr . ce , Citrine , Hail , and Parker on the part of tlie working t . e ? u ' . aiion , the lecin . rer QJid his friend- were completely silenced ; every man and woman in the well-fill-. d chapel were satisfied of the fallacy of the Corn Law humbugs , and the lecturer shrunk away , and we are perfectly convinced that no ntore lectures will be attempted in this disirie ' , iho Chartists having promised h zn thai as he wisho- 'i to < riTa sound political iiLiorrjation , which was their wish - _> o . they would attend him in all his future Iecv .: _; . . ¦ ¦ v . t the- _ s ' iiaiiaeet : asoftheOu 3 cbuin Chani .-ts on Suii ' -ay , ' !•' . h izs :., it . wasunrw / Imcurfy resolved , k : That the ab-.- -.- -2 resort be forwardei by

Mr . David Mills was called to the chair , and introduced Ji-. Roughsione , who went through anutnber of tb . readbar ? r , 9 scrtions , that if the Corn Laws were recealcd , workmen's

      committee appointed for the carrying out of the O'Connor Demonstration , most reepectfuKy call npon the different trades of tins ^ tewn to follow tie example of . their brethren in other parts , by joining in the demonstration , and showing their attachment to that cause which alone can bettei the condition of the labouring community . The committee meet every Tuesday eyenibg , at the Chartist Lecture Room , Swan Coppice . Those wishing to take part will be kind enough to communictto with the committee . The Third District Delegate Meeting for the . Demonstration , will be holden in their room , on Sunday the

      3 rd of October , at two o ' clock in the afieraoon , at which Delegates are expected from all the surrounding villages . Various resolutions have been passed at the former meetings . On <^ and ail seem determined that the united energies of the whole of this district b * put into active operation , to secure a glorious and triumphal entry of that tried friend and champion of the people ' s rights , F . O'Connor , Esq ., into this district , and en ^ Tave on the hearts of our enemies the justice as well as necessity of yielding to us those rights which they have so long and so wrengfally withhelden from U 3 .

      Chartism , at this place , is progressing most gloriously . The vroTking classes are beginning to ses that there i 3 no remedy for the evils under which they groan , save in the people ' s Chtirter , and numbers aro coming forward to enrol their names in our Association . "WIHDY BANK . —Mr . Msreden leatured in the Chartist News-room here , fully exposing the manifold evils of the present system of class legislation , and strongly recommending a union of efforts to obtain the Charter , as the only means to destroy that power and bring happiness to the people . At the conolusion , three cheers were given to F . O'Connor , and three to Frost , Williams , and Jones .

      SKIPTON . —Mr . Knowles , from Keigbiey , delivered a lecture here on Saturday , the 18 th iost ., in the Temperance Hall , which was well attended . The lecturer animadverted in severe terms on the selfishness of the middle-class ; he did not spare the working men for the apathy they have shown in this part of the country , in forwarding the great and glorious cause ; he exhorted them to do their duty , and spoke in the most happy manner on the necessity of union . Although this town is the hot-bei of Whiggery and Toryism , there is a democratic feeling springing up in the minds of the

      working classes . There are numbers who would speak oa : their sentiments on this subject , but dare not for fear of tho consequences , as all are , more or less , under the influence of Whig or Tory cotton lords . There are a few , however , who know their rights , and knowing dare maintain them . An Association wa 3 established on Saturday night , September 2 o ; h , with every prospect of success ; and we hope tlie men cf Skipton and farrcundmg villages will rally round us in this our glorious undertaking , and let the tyrants know that the days of their despotic misrule are fast drawiDg to a close .

      BBASrORD . —Spri . ng-Stueet . —At the weekly meeting , oa Monday , several new members were enrolled . The letter of Mr . O'Connor to Henry Hetherington was read , and a resolution unanimously passed , voting confidence in O'Connor and the Siar , and ext ressing the contempt of the meeting for the ' shuffling and unseemly conduct of Mr . iletherington . " HORTON , . vear Bradford . —On Wednesday rrlght last , a stranger called at the house of Mr . Tordoff , the Hare Inn , Horton , about ten o ' clock , and called for a glass of ale , and something to eat ; the iandlord supplied him with it , and during the time the stranger was partaking of it , the dbg belonging to the house went under tho table , and the

      landlord observed the man drop something down aad the dog parcook of it . The man , as soon as he had taken his refreshment , bid " good night" and ho set off . He had not been gone very long before the dog showed symptoms of great illness , and in less than an hour expired . The landlord on seeing that his dog wa- ; dead suspected that his house was going to be broken into and accordingly prepared for an encounter . He loaded his gnn and seated himself down , waiting the event ; when about two o ' clock , he saw alight struck up ; he then proceeded to the place , and could distinctly see three men at hia back-window , and one of them vrith a lighted candle in hi 3 hand , but as Eoon as tiey ss . 77 him and his formidable weapon , they made their escape .
