      binGI . EY . —Symptoms of Union between tub Mipdlb and WORKIN& CLASSES . —( Received too lait for our last . )—It being announced that Mr . O Connor would visit Bingley on Wednesday last / a strong desire to see and hear their undaunted champion induced many of the factory ¦ woikera to apply to the millowners . reqnfcstin ? them to stop their mills for the afternoon . This , with ons or two Whig exceptions , was kindly granted . But on the morning of Mr . CTConnor ' s arrival , the pious and liberal owners of one lares manufactory , posted up written notices within thtir mills to the following effect- — " That any weaver , overlooker , or othsr -workman ; absenting themaelTea after the csual time , or leariog the mill to Bee Mr . O'Connor , would be instantly discharged ; adding , thai 1

      if Fearmscould provide better for them ,. then they itbe work peoplej were at liberty to go with Jum . " Sach is the wdl known tyranny of these free-trading gentry , that the hands dared not to disobey thia order . When Mr . 0 Connor arrived , however , an attempt -was made by some of the females to force an egress , but in this they were disappo i nted , as their kind masters hart considerately taken the precaution to lock the doors , and keep them in . Mr . O'Connor , however , did not fail , in the course of his address , to give them a wellmerited castigation . After the adaress , the procession proceeded past the factory prisons , when a glorious sight presented itself : the whole of the iron-grated windows of the factories being crowded with young wojnen , peering through the gates ; and , in defiance of

      the tyrants , cheering on tbe procession . It should also be stated that about the time of Mr . O'Connor " s entering the town , through some accident to the mach nery , the mill was obliged to 03 stopped for a considerable time , upon which some of the bands applied for permission to go out , bnt were told that if the mill should never run again , yet they should not go till the usual time of stopping . Englishmen ! this Is liberty ! Your wives ami daughters are to be placed at tbe disposal of such men as these , to ba locked up , and kept ris prisoners ! This is middle class , cheap-loaf sympathy ! These are the men who , at the last election , forced out their hands tj go in procession , ( decked in yellow , and carrying the big loaf , ) to meet the / Whig candidates ! These are they who , on seeing their patty defeated at the election , purchased a number of tracts , advocating Complete Suffrage , which they distributed through the mills , declaring that the Suffrage was the only thi 'g

      which eonld gtt them a Repeal of the Bread T « r . ' These are a glorious specimen of those kind friends to liberty , who have been soliciting us to unite with them . Bnt -what pay yon , working men ? Shall We agsin t ^ sisa om-selve 3 into the hands of these tyrants , to ba locked within their infernal , murderous rattleboxes , when they shall think fit ? Snail we assist them ta extend a system like this ? Assist them to build more of these living tombs—assist them to odd ? et anotbor link to our chain ? Shall we unite with them atain for this ? Kever , Brother Cofirfsts , M us be again ltd . astray ; but let us trust to our own orderkt us r , ot forsake one iota of our principles for the sake of gaining tbe assistance

      XffOSSLEY . — ANTI-CORN LAW LECIUBBS AND Dibcdssion . — On Wednesday morning last week . placards were poBtel on the walls of this Tillage announcing that two lectures would be delivered on the Corn Laws , by Mr . T . Falrey , from Macclesfleld , on Wednesday and Thursday evenings , July the 6 th and 7 th in the Methodist School , a room capable of holding upwards of one thousand people , and after each lecture discussion was particularly invited , and that equal time would ba allowed the disputant * . The Chartista got one of the placards just when it came from the press the night before , and they agreed to get some one from Manchester to comply with its particular request . Accordingly they got that atvunch advocate of the people ' rights , Mr . Christopher Doyle . On the

      first night the room was not quite full , in consequence of the shortness of the notice , and it not being known whether there would be any opposition or not . Robert Hyde Buckley , Esq ., manufacturer , was unanimously appointed chairman ; one of the moat impartial men we ever saw . Mr . Faltey lectured about one hour and a quarter , in the coarsa of which he showed that be was an able and eloquent man , and one that was capable of appealing to the passions of his audience with success , but however it was no go , the Ciiartists were not to be deluded . Mr . Dayle got up to reply , and was received with applause that made tho League mun look rather pale , showing them that more tban threefourths of the meeting were Chartists . Mr . Doyle was allowed three quarters of an hour in reply , in the

      course of which he was repeatedly cheered . Mr . Falvey had another three quarters of an hour , making altogether about two hours , which was a great advantage over Mr . Doyle , who bad only three quarters of an hour to go into so important and extensive a subject . The eloquence of Mr . Fjlvey in his last speech , and Mr . Doy . e having stated that he doubted whether he should be able to come the next evening , raised the spirits of the League , and they seemed rather triumphant . In the course of the nextday several of th 9 League offered to lay a wager that Mr . Doyle durst not come in the evening ; but , to their modification , Mr . Doyle came again . R . H . Buckley , Esq ., was appointed chairman again , and after Mr , Doyle had had some discussion with Mr . Falvey and the League , it wan agreed

      that Mr . Falvey should have an hour for his lecture , and Mr . Doyle an hour in reply , and that each aheuld have a quarter of an hour afterwards , which they occupied to the best of their abilities , by keeping to the subject , and without making personal utttickB upon each other , while the meeting retained a general good feeling ; there were no manifestations of hostility , n © squabbles , or uproars , but all passed off in tha best possible manner , except when Mr . Joseph Hall , a Chartist , got up to move the following resolution : — 11 That it is the opinion of this meeting that the Corn Laws are obnoxious ; but are only on ° . of the many complicated and grievous evils tho population of the British Empire justly complain of , and we are of opinion that even-handed justice never will be dealt

      out equally to the king and the beggar , till that went of all monopolies la destroyed—the monepoly of the suffrage . We therefore pedge ourselves never to oease our exertions till the People ' s Charter becomes the law bf the land . " This , however , did not suit the palates of the League , and they opposed it in the btst manner they could ; but ft was seconded , and the chairman , like an impartial man , put it to the meeting , when nearly all the hands in tha room were held up ; but when it was put to the contrary , tha LeagU 9 declared that they did not Tote ; u very good reason why , but for that they would not have had forty hands held up against it A vote of thanks was proposed to the chairman , for his impartial conduct in the chair , which was carried by acclamation , and the meeting separated highly delighted .

      LEICESTERSHIRE . —The Chartists of North and South Leicestershire held a central camp meeting , Jast Sunday , at the picturesque village of Mountsorrel . Tbe site of the meetiQg was a most delightful'one . A ledge of rock , about thirty feet above the grass , formed a natural platform for the speakers ( Messrs . Cooper arid Beedham , of Leicester , Skevingtoa and Jarratt , of Loughborough , and Pepper , of Normanton ) , while masses of porphyritic granite , older than the Alps , stretching sixty or seventy feet upwards , were filled with human beings , who thus formed a natural gallery for listening to the great truths of democracy and Christianity , and with the thousands covering tbe greensward formed an assemblage cf an uncommon character . From five to seven thousand auditors were thus collected ,

      and transfixed with earnest attention around the advocates of Chartism . At different Intervals , during the day , a delegate meeting held its sittings , and canvassed the desirableness of forming tbe whole county into one active organised body . Tho following resolutions were passed at one ef the earlier sittings : — " That , for the great purpose of organising Chartist localities throughout Leicestershire , we , the delegates of a provisional meeting composed of deputies from North and South Leicestershire , do hereby recommend that the two divisions of the shire be united , and form one county Chartist union . " " That Messrs . Cooper , Skevington , and

      Crow be a committee for preparing a plan of organisation , or a body of rules or regulations , for governing the ' said County Chartist Union . " " That to receive such plan , or body of rules , and for the transaction of such other necessary business as may arise , a delegate meeting of the whole county be assembled at Mr . Cooper ' s room , in Leicester , this day fortnight , that is , on Sunday , the 24 th iostant , at ten o ' clock in the forenoon . " At a sitting held at a later period , the general state of English Chaitism formed the topic of conversation , and the following resolutions were passed : — " That the National Delegate Meeting , proposed by the Hunt Monument Committee to be holden on tbe 17 th

      of August next , appears to this meeting to be imperatively necessary for the settlement of disputes , for a re-consideration of the plan of organization , and above all , for the adoption of some more vigorous plans for extending our principle than those which the Executive have hitherto acted upon . " " That the Executive be made acquainted with the conviction of this meeting respecting the necessity of calling the said National Delegate Meeting ; and also that our brethren , In all tbe localities of the National Charter Association , be urgently requested to co-operate with us in pressing upon the Executive tbe necessity of summoning the said National Delegate Meeting , t » be held in . Manchester , on the 17 sh of August next . " "That the foregoing resolutions be nent for insertion in the Star . " At the
