Not ^ isJaBgto make more of this attempt than is merely jjgeessaiy io destroy it , I shsll hnt gently tench it ; jaltoaejthen , toslparagraphTriiIch appeared insome of ihe T ^ h newspapers nelening to the position jrinch Feargas O'Connor and the English Chartists jaa assumed on the question of the Bepeal of the tJnion- If niy conversion to the principle of repeal 5135 of recent date , orif my advocacy of the measure pseeitfirst became a national question -was equivocal , 3 « oald "well understand the propriety of receiving a la ^ y convert if not -with suspicion , a ! least "with

      pjatjon . I could see Tery justifiable reason * for gtnixag thought in the minds of the zealous and the ^ dnfinned . Sat inasmuch as I hare from the oatset ^ gen the roost Earenoons advocate of the Tneasnre , jnflj as I have rocked its cradle -while slumbering in je ^ j and -patched its -waiing moments frith the jest nerrops aiorietVj and "whether crawliDg as a cnpple , or striding as a . giant , I hare limped with its . jaS , or kept pajje with its stride , I am not jaw _ going to allow any man or any body of of men to make my advocacy of my country's cause j&e pretext for failure or delay . Jfo , my

      countrymen , onr father land has been bnt too often and too jnecessfnliy made the prey of the spoiler by the . garnion of Irishmen . I am not one of those , howler , who -would stand by my country in the calm , jg ^ t desert ijerin , thestorm . I do not make nt own fnfaied feelings , or the sndden shock of executive power , a pretext for flying to my country ' s rescue . I Jure sustained her cause in the midst of personal Sasrepresentation and legal persecution , and whofher shall I now desert her from dread of jtarflier persecution , or embrace the opportunity of BB&jag a cowardly retreat under the mask of Ficaded personal feeling I I shall do neither the one d ihe other . 2 ? o ; I w 31 bear that persec ntion

      ¦ i ^ nch may be allotted to me like an Irishman , and Jsngh at spleen like a philosopher , Bo not the Irish , in fiteir present glorious struggle for liberty , require ill tbe aid ihat can be enlisted in their behalf , and although tie power of an individual may be but iBght , are not yon , my countrymen , convinced that to msn was erer nononred with more of the conidenee of the English working classes than I can proudly boast of I And can you suppose that men srloiave so hcroicaBy contended for the rights of jnm , and have ever found me amongst the fore-» osi in the ranks , would not look with suspicion liponibose who w&nld court weakness by graiifjing personal animosity r

      iiy eouEtrymen , 3 am an Irish Repealer , and at English Chartist . I was one « f three zoHIions Jtb hnudred thousand who advocated your Tights to self government j and the comprehensive and phi-Isnfhropie principle upon which the EnglisX Charfctsaci is , that when one of a eemmunity 5 s * pjffessed , the whole body through him is insulted Ten have many of yon witnessed my exertions on behalf of Ireland fox the last ten years , and how proudly can I defy yon in the midst of reproach aBd uBjaeriJed censure to point out one word spoken jst sue sentries written against the interests of my

      -country . Surely you must have witnessed the sccere sjmiiathy of ihe English working classes for the wrongs © f Ireland , you mnsi have observed the , fieep interest that they take in the suffering of hot country , yon must have seen the readiness with which they have ever contended Mr ih « rights of Irishmen , and having witnessed isose things you must be convinced that Ihey ferin so portion of that Tftigfon society which I admit ever has heen hostile to Irish interest . Would jos thfin Taf-Viy hazard the Ios 3 of such a body ? or Tdll yon not , like Irishmen and statesmen , court

      iheir ce-opcration to ensure the regeneration of our common country ! If as we learn , tho efcject of the Irish is ie enlist ihe co-operation of the Esglish people , hare yon been so blind to passing events as mot to have discovered that the national strength of JSoglscd is embodied in the Chartist ranks , and that toappeal sseiionaliy to the cool-headed , the temperate , the discreet , the moral force Chartists , or to Tiseany terms calculated to revive oli animosities , ironld iave the effect of estrangtr * from your cause those tvhose opposition appeared thus to be courted . But my countrymen , I will point out to you" the

      proper « cnrse in such an emergency , the duty which every 7 riFhTP » Ti under such cir-« mstanees owes to his country . The course then "irhieh I shall pursue will be to disarm slander by increased exertion . To go on pourtraying my * D aBtry * swroBg 3 and demanding my eonntry ' sliberty aiding the good in their glorious straggle and leaving the vicious and the bad to be dealt with by ihai sober mind , the grave of littleness and vengeasee , when ihat great object which all profess a desire to achieve shall be accomplished , and when ihe wrongs of Ireland are silenced in a national

      lEpresestaiion of the whole people . If , then , in the absence cf national complaint vengeance shall * recJ her tribunal for the trial of petty squabbles , and , if I ihall be forced into the lists , I would plead » J whole life spent in devotion to my country and learleslj Ipave the issue to my conntrymen .

      VA 1 S OE tSVEH . —On Monday week , a public meeting of the inhabitants of this place was held in tha Odd Fellows * xVnge HiQl , to hear an ad < ire 3 s from Mr . Robert Peddie , the victim of tha spy sytem . The following resolution was adopted previous to the lecture : — " We , tha inhabitants of the Vale of Levsn , in public meeting assembled , do express our warm and heartfelt sympathy with those brave ami patriotic men in the sister island now so gallantly struggling for the reattainment of a domestic legislature ; andnotenlydo we sympathise with ibem , but also pledge ourselves to give them svery assistance that we legally and constitutionally caa do , in thia their glorious i ffort to obtain that freedom which God has given to every creature under Heaven , namelj . tiio right of self-government

      The more especir . Uy do we feel ourselves called upon to come forward at this time with expressions of satisfac tion at , and - warmest wishes for , the success of the Repeal agitation ia Ireland , as certain portions of the British hireling press has most falsely and m ost -wickedly stated that the -weriiug . men of Esg ' . and and Scotland fetl no interest in these truly grand and glorious struggles for rational liberty ; ; and still further , as -with grief and heartfelt sorrow we behold what we cannot help calling a most dishonest and diabolical attempt on the part of the enemies of freedom to enlist on the side of power the religions prejudices of the Protestant Christians , by insinuating that ihe real interest of the leaders of the R-speal agitation in Ireland is to establish Catholie snprema . ey in that country . As Protestants ourselves we do fearlessly assert that -w ^ arepersuaded that

      these wicked insinuations are bnt a weak invention of the enemy , meant to throw the apple of religious discord amongst the friends of freedom , —only another proof that the Tories have not forgot the ' r old axiomdivide and conquer—an attempt that , we feel confident , will prove as useless to them as it is wicked in intention . And we , the inhabitants of the Vale of Leven , do most seriously * shoit ora Irish brethren to continue fearlessly their noble and patriotic career , nothing doubting that & speedy and bloodless triumph awaits them . Also , as men of stern principle , we f tel called npon to say , that in class legislation—and in doss legislation alone—is to be found the origin of both Ireland ' s and England ' s woe . And , moreover , had it not been for the existence of class legislation , Ireland could not have feetn so basely robbed by a British Parliament of her resident Hcuse of Representatives . "

      A Public Out-door Meeting of the inhabitants of the Vale "was bvlvl in Al xundria , on Monday evening last , to petition Parliament on behalf of Cooper and Richards , and against the Irish Arms BiiL Neariy 2000 persons assembled ..

M'Fadyen moved the first resolution , " That this meeting views with horror and indignation the crnel treatment inflicted upon Thomas Cooper and Richards , and agree te petition Parliament for a mitigation of theirEufiHrings , " which was ably seconded by Mr . Burns . Mr . G . Ferguson moved the next resolution , " That this meeting likewise petition against the Irish Arm * BilL" Mr . C . Glen seconded the resolution , and proceeded to make a . number ef able lemaiks on the policy pursued by the government towards Ireland . He next in a speech of striking eloquence , appealed to the people to do their duty in resisting all encroachments

      upon their civil and religious liberties . Mr . Glen retired amid great cheering . The Chairman put the resolutions , which were carried unanimously .

      CUTQBEOE .-Moke Tyranny of the Middle Classes . —It ha , d been announced by plaoard for at least six days previous , that Mr . D . Ross , of Manchester , would ; deliver three lectures , in the large room at tho Swan Inn , on the 5 th , 6 ° . h , and 7 th of June . The first lecture was to be upon Elocution ; the second on tho political aspect of Chartism ; and the third on tho Evils of the Competitive System . When Mr . Ross entered the Swan Inn , at the appointed time , he was very impertinently told by the landlord that he could not have the room . Mr . Ross—What is the reason I cannot have it ? Mr . Holderness—I have twenty reasons . Mr . Ross— Give one reason 1 Mr . Holderiiess—The room is my own ; I am master here . As an Englishman , I am opposed to Chartism , and it shan ' t be mentioned here .

      During this conversation , a Mr . Sorsfall , an understrapping manufactarer , one of : the saintly disciples of the League , began to vociferate like a moonetrtckeu maniac , stating that he would bag all those in his or their employ who had anything to do with Chartism ; upon which , Mr . Ross told him that he was a striking evidence of the cruelties practised by the manufacturing despots of the age ' . After a little more conversation of % h \ s Bort , this "humane" employer appeared so overcome with passion , as to be ready to faint . ; Ashamed of being made to look so truly contemptible in the eyee of the workies , by whom he was . ' surrounded , he stated that be could stand it no longer , and evidently showed symptoms of fight , prefacing his gestures with , sundry

      oaths and angry imprecations , npon which Mr . Ross told him , that after the sample which he had given him of his good breeding , he must certainly decline all further conversation with him , Mr . Ross again addressed tho landlord , asking him what authority ' he acted upon ; when he replied that he was acting upon the advice given by the magistrates . He moreover stated the magistrates were determined to put down all Chartist meetings ; upon which Mr . Ross remarked that despite the disposition of the magistrates , they lacked the means to do so , having the authority of thai highest lawyers in the realm for maintaining the right of public discusssion . A number of working men , who were Dresent during this converation , were forcibly

      ejected by one of those precious donations bequeathed by the Whigs during their merciless administration , yciept a policeman ; this preoious functionary had been previously well crammed with stroajj drink in order to inflate his valour to the fighting point ; meantime Mr . Boss and the landlord were engaged in altercation , the landlord stating that he could at any time crush Chartism by argument ; upon which Mr . Ross requested him to Bend for theindusttious magistrates , who had so busily interested themselves on tho occasion , and having placed one of the abovenamed authorities in the chair ,, Mr . Ross would undertake to prove that they knew no more of Chartism , its power ; , and capabilities , than the members of the establishment know of justice and humanity .

      By this time the landlords' puissance nad evaporated , not so the strong drink with which he had bolstered up his sinking resolution ; Mr . Ross finding that nothing could be done with these violators of the public faith , left them to their owu reflections . Upon entering the street , surrounded by a number of his friends , he wasifollowed by the policeman , whose desponding demeanour proved how much he was disappointed in consequence of not having an opportunity afforded him of conveying some one to prison , there to be dealt : with according to tho caprice jot' the public authorities . This disturber of the public peace told Mri Ross that he must move on , upon which Mr . Ros 3 told him that he had better move off . The policoman , whom drunkenness had almost deprived'of articulation , replied that it was the Queen ' s highway ; upon which

      Mr . Rosb remarked that he was sorry to find it obstructed by such ornaments as policemen , telling him , moreover , ' that he knew his privilege too well to allow such individuals the right of addressing him . Here the policejnan looked alarmingly big . elevating at the same time his indolent arm , in which he carried a wea , pon , ias though ho was about to intimate what might' be expected to follow . He toW Mr . Hoss that he J knew him , upon which Mr . Rosa remarked that he could not rejoice in his acquaintanoe , telling him at tbe same time , that he ought to know him , iorithat he was most unwillingly compelled to help to maintain him . Here the policeman was greeted with a yell of execration , upon which he withdrew , no doubt to the parties who employed him , in order to be rewarded by his trusty supporters lor ihe valuable services he bad thus nobly performed . ' The room was engaged and paid for at least

      ten days previous . In consequence of the unconstitutional means , taken to suppress the three lectures intended to have been delireredfby Mr . Ross , it has been determined that a pnblic ' meeting will be held on the Sabden Bide of VendlefHilljOn Sunday , June 18 th , 1843 , at twelve o'clock' at noon . Mr . Rosa and other gentlemen will attend . Chartists , attend in your countless thousands , &nk shew that it is vain and fruitless , to attempt to suppress the righteous cause of democracy .

Another of the League vrm doiog the same thing , and one bad this very ! laftu week stopped his engine and reduced his hands one half-halfpenny per cut , which put about £ 7 per fortnight ; ' into his pocket . Working men , this is the way you are to be made happy by the League men . Are you sotinfled of their intentions ? If you are not watch them closely , and you soon will be . Oh ! 1 had | forgot to tell you , that the individual who had reduced his weavers told them
