T » y "briefly for the present f because it is my intention , when i shall fc * Te receirad all the combers « f Mr . Shaman Crawford ' s letters opoo the Repeal question ^ to umrer them seriatim , objection by objection ^ in a rfjap pampMet , ' containing laa letters , and flier « f Mr . Daant in reply , together with toy answer .

      The question of the Repeal of the Union holds , tsd erer has held , in my-estimafckm , the precedence of til other Irish questions ; and therefore do I feel myself justified in accounting for my silence jad xbe silence of th « Northern Star upon the poptkm recently taken op by Mr . Crawford upon the jokjeet . In the first place , then , I hold it to be both wist and fair to wait until Mr . Crawford ' s whole cue Aall have been made out and submitted , la tbe second place , the demand upon tbe columns of the Siar is so great , that tbe required portion could not be given np fbr Mr . Crawford ' s letters tad Mr . Daant ' s replies ; and the Editor considers

      thai it would be unjust to gi ? fi one without the otbsr . Id tbe third place , during ay tear in Scotland , I had sot leisure to notice Mr . Crawford ' s letters ; and in my opinion , from the Ignorance which prevails throughout England and Scotland , upon the subject of the- Repeal of the Union , the publication without note or comment gf the false and untenable positions , the stretched sstieipatioss , tie l achrymore forebodings and bonading conclusions of Mr . Crawford , forced upoa the farourable consideration oT muay , very aiiy , by the just estimation in which the writer is held by all for his political integrity and noral worth , would hare ensured for them a value to which 1 hope to prove they are net entitled .

      Yes , my countrymen , I undertake to prove that Mr . Crawford has fallen into that error which ha 3 m&ed Mr . O'ConaeB to consign so many good and hosest men to oblivion or to death . He has allowed & hostility to the mea&s -used for tbe attainment rf Bepeal to warp his judgment , and lead bis arten-Jjm from the consideration of the principle ; whereas ks doty , as an Irishman , was to hare endeavoured to combat the eril means , which might hare been dseted withoat inflicting damage npon the principle , Sese letters , if not fairly met and critically exposed , would be pre-eminently calculated to

      ead&n-£ e ? tis « Aos 6 of Repeal ; aad sberef # re I ask bntfor a ikn pause before my country shall hare been cossgned to perpetual bondage . I undertake to pore that the effect of Mr . Crawford's federal tmka , would be to create the Tery feuds , contention and strifes , which he anticipates from an indepen-&oi legislation . I undertake to prote , that his system vcdd create a rast amount of goTernment patronage , without returning one single advantage to Ireland , I undertake to prove , that his system -would grre birth to a huge national corporation in IrelasiL wiuch woold repreaent the Protestant

      mterest in its corporate capacity at home , while it would compose the working machinery for representing itself in the Imperial Parliament . I undertake to prove that an Irish Parliament , under a British administration , would be a curse , and would euble the British ministers of the day to do as all Brfcfe ministers once the Union have done , —i » insure his Irish majority by the wages of terraptioB paid in Irish Catholic blood . I is&rtake to prove thai Mr . Crawford ' s hope from tqcil representation even with Universal Suffrage ; —Omt observe , he speaks throughout of the present

      toadard of franchise )—so far from relieving Ire-W , would considerably increase and multiply her difficulties and persecutions j while the increased Bofiber of Irish representatives in an English Parfc * wnt , would but increase the number of Irish belligerents on the British stage , without gmng to trial is eaUed tbe Liberal party & 07 accession of Vmt . Ln short it yrovld bo * serve to expose our * mtTj ' s dissentions the more and more , while it * ° « M more than double the injustice and injury ef * b « Bteeism . I undertake to prove that tbe amount * f public opinion which would isfinre the success of

      * r . Crawford ' s plan , would insure a repeal of tbe Bf « Bal Union , and grant to Ireland an ia-^* J * ndent Parliament , I andertake to prore fcat the dreaded influence of Mr . CConnell "" nld be a reality in tbe federal assembly , while if ** «» ttEl y used in an Irish Parliament it would ^^ him at onee . I undertake to prove , that no tottk j can be justly governed whose Tepresenta-«*« compose but a minority of a representative " ° djhiving more extensive and district functions t * Recharge than those which affect the interest of ®* «» Her state . And I further undertake to prove ,

      " alcwJ < a * limprovement is incompatible with foreign re PMMataSon ; and that to insure a respect for the »* s aod u > r the physical , inteUectaal and moral imj * ore » eir t 0 f & people , the domestic legislators mnst ^ *»« grt , must be anrwerable and responsible to tbe Prefer whom they legislate , and to them alone . " * wort , as 1 hive more than once before obserred , * % ttust return to their constituents at the close of t « session , to receive their smiles as the reward of ™^* or their frowns as a punishment for vice . 1 "Bdertake to prove that tbe mixture of two bellit ^ wt Iri sh parties in the English House of Com-•¦« affords the British Minister means of opfesnng the English people , which he would not

      •™ je rf Ireland had an independent Parliament . I ^ Mertake to prove that so long as Irish patronage ^^ tates a kr se portion of the British Minister ' s fcPPW in the House of Commons , so long will the ^ f ^ tfion , as at present existing between the conn-«« > operate most prejudicially against the interest « we English working t&sses . In short , I nndcr-¦*»« *<> show to demonstration , that so long as the * " **« Unbn exists , Ireland mnst be a slave BSI ** 7 , from whence the Tfa g Knh capitalists can at ~ yj »» e , at all seaeoai , and ft » all pnrp <» es , and ^ wowa Pnce comaand % labour reeerre which **> wui means ef reducing the Talue of *«** in the English market .

      ow beloved countrymen , it is agony to me •* Aus compelled to difer from a man like ^ » ^ Crawford , of whom I entertain the ; jilted opinion ; one for whose integrity , j ^ o&sm , talent , and character , I h » ve the highest ~ J ; ! one whom I esteem as a personal friend , •^ Political ally . Yet must all these ties fade into

      oblivion , when compared with a question M jitally * ffeetio < betad ' A frewtoo , and my ©• watry ' s glory . Let me now tell yon why mad wherefore I attach great importance to Mr . Crawford ' s letters at any time , but more especially at the present moment . ; ; . ^ > . ¦ Firstly , then , I find that many who , like myself have been disgusted with the means uwd fcr the accomplishment of a Bepeal of tbe Union reason erroneously upon those letters , making the censure of Mr . O'ConnelTs general conduct upon the subject of justification , for their desertion or lnkewarmnesB . No man has » ne farther

      than your humble servant in exposing and deaounoing the meanderings aad windings of Mr . O'Conneli in his devious path ; yet have I at all times , in tbe . midst of torrent * of abase from thoae calling themselves Repealers , adhered firml y to tin principle ; and , while I would allow every man full right for the free expression of his opinion , I cl * jm the pmfiegs of declaring on sty part my extrenw MtoniwhTPCPt at the appro-nil of Mr . C&A-m-obd ' s letters , by any man professing himself a Repealer Intact , they , famish &n easy escape to those who would gladly seize npon the advent of Tory domination as , a fit ^ Lig opportunity for the abandonment of Ireland * eause . Many will now desert Ita ata « dMd « wh * N

      ytriotiaa ft wwiM WM * m imA to doubt , whwt the practice of Bopping-cff was resorted to u » meaas 0 / conversion . Again , my countrymen , the letters of Mr . Crawford are peculiarly inauspieious at the present moment , because we are engaged now in an imperial struggle . We are now about to petition for the Charter and a Repeal of the Union ; and some men , with old women ' s nerves , have already begun to question tbe policy ; aye , the policy , of ""• "jug up the two questions , and Mr . Crawford ' s letters , if not met , would increase this weakness . But what

      will you Bay when I prove , as I undertake to do , that even the Charter , the whole Charter , would be an inadequate measure of justice for Ireland , if not accompanied by a Repeal of the Union ' I say accompanied by , as England and Ireland Brest have justice at one and the fame moment , and out of the same agitation . I feel assured that Mr . Crawford fully feels the necessity of his own plan , and tbe insnfficienoy of the plan now in process of agitation ; and , therefore , I shall deal with him as a friend , who , in my opinion , has gone astray .

      For the present I would recommend all those who have read Mr . Crawford ' s letters to read Mr . Daunt ' s replies 10 Koa . 1 and 2 . I have only seen those two numbers , which I recommend , especially the latter , to the serious reflection of every man . It has relieved me of much of the bush-firing and detail squabbling . He answers every one of Mr . Crawford ' s forebodings about colonial and domestic policy , commercial reciprocity , and separate

      interests , in a most masterly manner ; and , as much weight is very properly attached to Mr . Crawford ' s unblemished and honourable character ; give me leave to say that no man can boast Of a more unblemished character than can Mr . Daunt . I have known him from infancy ; and I believe that a more sincere Repealer , or a man of more unblemished character breathes not . I have thought Si more the necessary to say so much in consequence of the ftorrnpter channels into which tbe defefiee of poor Ireland had fallen .

      My beloved countrymen , having said so much upon the subject of Mr . Crawford ' s letters , I have but small space to direct your attention to our present position . The Tories are now in power . The Irish Liberal members instead of meeting them as the English Chartists met them upon the very threshold of office , left them an unopposed field . In fact , they ran away , while Crawford , Doncombo , and the brave thirty-nine , and Fielden and the brave fortytwo were disputing the ground inch by inch . Had the Irish Liberals stood by us , Crawford would have

      had more than 100 votes for tbe Charter , while Eielden ' s motion for Btopping the supplies would have had a tremendoas . icnuence all over tbe world . In this state of things we can have no hope for any improvement in our country except through the agency of English agitation ; and now that We are upon the ere of procuring four millions of British signatures for the enforcement of Irish Justice , we find that the denunciation of that force upon which Ireland must rely , increases in the exact proportion in which a better understanding between the

      working people of both countries increases . I rely upon the judgement , the candour , and the patriotism of the Irish in England , to see through and to dissipate this mist , which has so long obscured our vision . You are told to have nothing to do with the " Torch and dagger Chartists . " Good God ! did you ever hear such nonsense What ! have nothing to do with , the only force upon which yon can safely rely for succour and support ! Now , my countrymen , thank God that I have lived to receive the first fruits of compensation for the unjust and ungenerous abuse of which , for nearly

      nine years , I have been the victim . It ib now more than seven weeks since a deputation of my countrymen waited upon me at Eccles , to request that I would cease to denounce Mr . O'Conneli ; and that the result would be a junction of English Chartists and Irish Repealers . Well , I did pledge myself , and from that moment to the present , I have abstained from the mention of his name , while I still constitute the stock-in-trade of the Royal Loyal ' B abase . Well , I can afford to bear it so long as I continue to increase in my countrymen ' s affections .

      In conclusion , dear Irishmen , I thank you ; and in return for your support , rely upon tbe unremitting , untiring , and unflinching support which one humble Irishman can bring to bear upon his country ' s cause . I have long struggled for oar country , and will continue to brave abnae and danger , resolved to see Ireland free , or to sacrifice comfort , ease , fnture health , or life , if necessary , in the establishment of my country's freedom . Ever your sincere And affectionate countryman , Feabgus O'Cossob .

      t You will not Bare forgotten my prephecy relative 4 o Chorea Chartim , Knowledge Chartism , and Teetotai Chanim ; and that I was iM 'false pi » phet » aj b « inferred from the tppwd o # Brewster to the total abstainers , as also from ' the sneaking and cowardly manner in which the Chartist Synod of Glasgow sought to use the poor blunt thing as an instrument for my destruction . But here allow me to discriminate between the shepherds and the flocks , between the committee and the body of teetotallers . In Glasgow , a knot of unemployed Methodists have endeavoured to constitute

      themselves into a kind of Chartist Presbytery ; and actually had the insolence and presumption to threaten Mr . Thompson , the able and virtuous teacher and pastor of Greenock , with suspension , for not having his credentials from the Synod of Glasgow . It was their intention to have mads Brewster the High Priest or BiBiiop of the body , had his bye-play with the rulers of his own church succeeded in rousing a great national sympathy in biB favour . But it is impossible to serve two masters ; and Brewster was too cunning to throw out the dirty State Charch notion untQ be had insured a large draught at the Char ter Church opening . That the flock have not been deluded by the shepherd , however , let Thursday night , the" 24 th of October , 1841 , prove ; while the

      fact that the preachers of Glasgow form an exception to those of the rest of Scotland is fully established . At Greenock , Mr . Thompson ; at the Vale of Leven , Mr . Thomason ; in Edinburgh , Mr . Lowery j at Dundee , John Duncan ; at Arbroalh , Abraham Duncan ; and , though last , not least , at Kilbarchan , John Wallace M'Cr&e . I have added Wallace to his name myself , as James Moir Bays he always reminds him of what Wallace ' s appeals must hare been to Scotchmen . Now , these gix good men are all Chartist preachers ; but they preach not exclusive Chartist theology , and the result of their teaching and preaching is , that their districts are the best united in Scotland , while they are universa ll y beloved by their own order , and respeoted , though hated , by both Whigs and Tories .

      This conspiracy of Brewster ' s has been long in embryo , and many who have secretly cherished a hope of its 8 UCOCS 8 , have yet to make atonement or bear exposure . What think you of the consistency and courage of Brewster , who , in the same breath , on the night of the 24 th , said , " No , I don't charge Mr . O'Connor tvith being a false man ; I believe him to he a true man , and a good man , but a misguided man " : and in a moment after , when he man "; and in a moment afterwhen he

      , found that blarney was no go , he blustered out , " Well , then , I akeaign him as a traitob 1 " Was there not much clerical finesse in the words " well thkn . " Did he not mean , I will dress the dish to your palate if I can ; and if not , I will at all events , appear to die game . Having said so much of the Chartist parsons and the flocks , let us now torn for a moment to the Teetotal abstainers and their Committees . It wafl to the COMMITTEES of the TOTAL ABSTAINERS , and to

      the Teetotallers that the wily Churchman made his appeal for means to get aro of Feabgos O'Cokkob . But to the honour of even the Committees , they in most instances answered his appeal by sending addresses as far as fifteen and evea twenty miles from their bodies to be presented to me . Thus hare I proved myself a true prophet as to tbe use which wily knaves would endeavour to make of Church Chartism and Teetotal Chartism , whili the knaves themselves have been frustrated ia their desire to use an unripe fruit .

      My friends , you will bert recognise the vake of our triumph over Brewster in the fact , that the Whig press taking his lying representations of the Paisley meeting as truth , are full of exultation ; while not a word of the Dumfries , Aberdeen , and Glasgow dmbbingB has defiled their columns . No , no , that is not the fitting food for the organs of faction . 1 have much to Bay and little space to say it just now ; therefore , I must run from subject to subject , and my next shall be the coming Scottish Convention . By all means I trust that the fustian jackets will attach doe and sufficient importance to the election

      of delegates , and will not allow the nation to be insulted by a state priest ooenpying all the time allowed for discussion in the abuse of better men than himself . I mean the abuse of suoh men as John M'Crea and Mr . Melville , of Markincb , and others ; and I further hope and trust that no more Halley ' s will bo sent to watch the National Petition in its presentation . Indeed , the election of delegates to the forthcoming Convention , is for England and Scotland , matter of the very deepest import . If one fault more than another injured us in our first endeavour , it was the careless and unguarded manner

      in which meetings allowed Mr . this , Mr . that , and Mr . the other to nominate delegates without a moment ' s previous notice ; and believe me now , that a lot of chaps , who like Mahomet ' s tomb are suspended between the new and old move , much inclining to tho former if they dared , will be proposed as fit and proper delegates ; but we must be on our guard . Let us have none but tried men ; good men , souud men , brave men , prudent men , and , above all , I do hope and trust that the working men in each locality

      will demand a sufficient time to canvass the merits of candidates , and that they will not send a single man to London upon whose principles , honour , and fidelity they have not a most perfect reliance . Here I must be allowed to express my delight upon learning that those two good men and brave men , Messrs . Moir and Proudfoot , have been elected to represent Glasgow ; how glorious to find the real working men thus selecting persons of Undoubted zeal , courage , and talent , to represent them .

      Next week I commence my English tour for signatures and enlisting recruits for our Association ; and as the cards of admission furnish all the means upon which tbe Executive can rely , I have a right to expect a rich harvest for them from my coming labour . I ought to be able to add , at least , fifty thousand new members to our several Afisoeistions , as it is my intention to remain at the close of each meeting to reeerre signature * to the petition , member * to tbeae » oci * tion , and then to perform a work of well-merited kindness to a friend . I will here

      mention it . No man on the nice of the earth has been more honest , zealous , and persevering in his devotion to the people ' s cause than Dr . M'DoualL No act has been more servicable than his defence ; and now we must testify cr ar approval substantially . I Sad that his all is gone , while he has several duties—domestic duties to perform . It is his wish and tbe desire of his Chartist friends , that he should be established in bis profession at Manchester ; and ,

Dean Taylor preachud a sermon in Looghborough Market-place , on Sunday , the 14 th of November , to a crowded audience . BATH . —On Sunday evening last , Mr . G . Bartlett delivered a discourse on th 4 importance of , necessity for , « d <» dvantages resalting from free enquiry , to a highly respectable audience in the room of the Chartist association , Bath . STOCKFORT . —Mr . Donovan , of Manchester , lectured on Sunday evening . Great distress' still pervades this unhappy town .

      HANiiEY . —Public Meeting to "congratulate" the Queen . ' — A placard appeared on the walls of thiB town , calling a public meeting of the inhabitants to take into consideration the best means of testifying our loyalty to pur gracious Queen , and celebrating the auspicious event of the birth of an heir to tbe throne . The Chartists here felt that this would be a most favourable opportunity of proving their loyalty to their Sovereign , and attended in considerable numbers , prepared either to support an address from those calling the meeting , if they could approve of such address , or if they could not support that address , then to propose an amendment , or otherwise move an address of their own . Eleven o ' clock was the time appointed by the Chief BailjC

      E . J . Rtdgway , Esq ., for the time of meeting , when , without ever being proposed , he , sans ceremonie , iook the chair , and opened the meeting by reading the placard , and then introduced Mr . G . Fourdrancer to the meeting . Of course we expected to have heard from that gentleman something like an address to her Majesty , when , to the surprise of the people , he proposed a public subscription by the people , to provide a public feast to some few favoured individuals , in a public Marketplace . Every one contributing to the fund should be provided with tickets to the amount of his subscription , and be at liberty to distribute euoh tiokets according to his own pleasure . During his Address , several voioes exclaimed " We waut justice ; " "None of your charitable

      guzzles ; "Give us our rights , and then we can provide ourselves with ail we want . " The gentleman then submitted , through the chair , that suoh a subscription be instantly entered into . On this being pat to the meeting , only very few hands were held up ; but , on the contrary , a forest of palms was held up . Here the Chief Bailiff ; declared the meeting ut a close , and instantly the whole Whig and Toiy clique , parson and all , abruptly left the meeting . After Mr . Ridgway had left the meeting , our friend , Mr . Samuel Bebbington , was called onto preside , who , in a short but neat speech , called on our old friend , Brother Richards , who immediately came forward and addressed the meeting . He lamented that the Chief Bailiff , and those calling the meeting ,

      should so soon desert their post ; and argued that , if their loyalty was no better than their courage , why then , the Queen would have but sorry defenders , tor the gentlemen ran away before one single shot bad been fired , or single unpleasant word been expressed . He next adverted to the distressed state of the country , shewing that whilst the Queen had every comfort , thousands of onr beloved countrywomen were suffering the severest sorrows , when they should have been in a comfortable state . He next read from the Northern Star the Birih Extraordinary , and the contrast at the foot of tbe paragraph , commenting in his usual style on the extremes of luxury and destitution , made manifest in that contrast , and then read an address congratulating her Majesty upon the

      auspicious event , informing her that thousands of virtuous and modest women were passing through like natural extremities upon beds of straw , without even a pillow whereon to lay their heads ; that starvation and misery 'were pervading the whole land ; attributing this state of things to class legislation ; and praying her Majesty to instruct her Ministers to p&ss the People ' s Charter into a law ; further praying that her Majesty would at this period of Providential interference for her own safety , remember tho sufferings of Frost , Williams , and'Jones , for whom thousands of her subjects were in mourning , and recall them to their homes and families' . The Rev . W . V . Jaokson , from Manchester , is a moat masterly and eloquent manner , satirized the conduct

      of the callers of the meeting by their running away , showing that had they but possessed the courage of a mouse they would have stopped through the meeting and have seen the upshot of the whole . Mr . J . Capper > from Taw tall , followed , and in a humourous stile lampooned without mercy the conduot of men who called the poor Chartists dishonest men ; and yet themselves , many of them , had found their way into the Gazette , and paid 33 , 6 d . in the pound for all their debts . Three defeaning cheers were then given for Feargus O'Connor , three for Frost , Williams , and Jones , and three for the Charter , and the meeting quietly dispersed to their own homes ; thus proving to tho whole nation , thai When the Chartists are united they are more than ft match fot Whig , Tory , and all opponents .

      NOTTINGHAM . —On Tuesday , the 9 th instant , Mr . J . Murray , of Manchester , lectured in the Democratic Chapel , Rice-place , Booker-gate , to a most crowded audience , Mr . J . Wall in the chair . Mr . Murray endeavoured to shew that a total repeal of the Corn Laws would prove a panacea for all our manifold national evils . The working men were not to be cajoled by suoh sophistries , and at the conclusion of the lecture , Mr . Russell moved the following resolution , which was seconded by Mr . Barber : — "That this meeting is of opinion , that the Corn Laws were the enactment of but a small portion of the nation , therefore , unjust , ¦ i iriquitoti ^ , - and ought to be repealed ; but if repealed under existing circumstances , an irresponsible government could enact other equally cruel and unjust laws ; and further , in the opinion of thiB meeting , no measure short of the People ' s Charter , could put the working classes in a position to protect their labour . ' * To

      which the men of the League , moved the following amendment : — That the Corn Laws are partial and unjust , and ought to be repealed . " The Review and Mercury report that Mr . Russell ' s resolution was carrieo . by a majority of two to one . This is too bad of a press , which would be called Liberals , inasmuch as the scribes heard the Chairman count the hands held up for Mr . Murray ' s amendment , and declared them to be under thirty , while the chapel which holds from four to five hundreds was filled to almost suffocation , and every other hand was for the resolution .

They hava got a hundred copies of too Petition , Which they leave one day at so many houses , and then change them , asking for signatures when they call for the petitions . This plan enaWes the family to read and consider the contents of the document , and the signing of the Petition becomes not a matter of impulse bnt of deliberate judgment . —Correspondent .

      6 a » Explosion . —Considerable alarm was excited on Wednesday evening last , by an explosion of gas at No . 1 , St . JamesVstreet . The family had been annoyed all tne afternoon from an escape of gas . but neglected to take any steps to haye it remedied , until about half-past five , when a person applied a light near the sink pipe in a cupboard , and an immediate explosion took place . The Gas Company ' s men were promptly at the place , and , uponoxamin ation found the main pipe broken , which had been occasioned by the sinking of the ground after

      2 , branch drain from the house into the common sewer had been made , the parties having neglected to support- the main in its original position . We think the above circumstance is a strong motive for increased care and vigilance on the part » f the Water and Gas Companies , the former by the greatest care to prevent damage to the gas pipes , eitLer from present breakage , or tha subsequent settling of the ground ; and the latter to use every possible care in having thsir mains and branches properly repaired and made secure when , the trenches are open .

      those wh # 8 & supply of Gas baa been stopped in previous winters , are earnestly requested to liava their meters properly preteeted from the frost , by having them covered with woollen wrappers , straw , or other suitable materiala—Prompt attention to the above will prevent muds trouble and mronvenience to all parties ; but where practicable tb * most effectual preventive , especially in those places-where a naoaberof lights are repaired , is to hwro a snail light ceoBtaatly burning near the meter ^ wbieKby keeping the works in motbn , preventa-the water from beietnaen .
