      DEMONSTRATION AT NEWCASTLE IN FAVOUB OF UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE .

      { From our oven Correspondent , by Express . ) The demonstration of the men of Newcastle , which 3 j ] :. i on Thursday last , will be long Tememrt g ( y ( ic £€ wlio witnessed it , " Of aUthe assem" ,-iSfeiereryet convened in England , it was far the most numerous , powerful , orderly , and important . Those who recollect the meetings of 1819 and 1832 , admit , that in point of number and order , they fell far short of the display of Thursday . At half-past nine the several trades with their banners and _ bands mustered in the Square , opposite St . Nicholas Church , and as the clock struck ten , the dense mass -was put in motion by the respective leaders and committee men , each taking the . station which had been allotted . It is impossible to make any guess

      at the numbers present , but the first flag had reached the hustings , a distance of two miles , Defore the rear of the vast cavalcade started . The rooming was beautiful , and the banners of freemen , bearing the mottos of liberty , floated majestically before the breeze . The procession passed up . Pilgrim-street , and was loudly cheered by thousands who assembled inthe windowssnd on the roofs . The whole road mere than fifteen yards wide / or two miles was thickly covered with people , about four hundred banners , and forty bands of well selected musicians enlivened the scene . The 'banners wer « transcendcntly beautifaL Mr . Feargus O'Connor walkftd at die head of the Hibernian society « th three of his countrymen , and was preceded by a splendid green

      sDk flag , fringed with white , fifteen feet by t «» lye , which was made for the purpose of receiving Daniel O'Connell , and bore his name as a rallying point , but in consequence of his truckling upon the Tithe -question , the Canadian question , the Factory ques-&pn , andhis thick and thin support of the Whi gg , his name was torn from lie banner , and a splendid harp surrounded by the rose , the shamrock , and ^ the -ihistie , supplied tne place . The flags were far the most magnificent we ever witnessed , and the whole * crtie "war the most perfect that the lover of Radicalism and truth can imagine . At eleven o ' clock the rear bad reached the busting ? , npon which , Thomjls Doubled at , Esq ., was Bnanimously voted to the chair , amidst thunders of applause .

      He presented "himself and was greeted as every sincere friend to liberty ever will be by thehonpst working man . He Faid that even a -longer service and greater devotion to democratic principles could not entitle him to the great honour that day conferred- upon him . ( Cheers and you ' re worthy . ) He thanked them and would endeaTour to make up all former deficiency , by repeated and renewed exertion ^ - ( dieersj " He " took the chair ; be lent his aid ; lie joined in their demand because their cause was righteous . ( Cheers . ) They had assembled to petition for the last time , and it -was only in _ conformity with the expressed wish of the men of Birmingham , that he again condescended to petition the House of Commons , as at present constituted . ( Cheers . ) As

      a dialnnan perhaps hi * duty saould-be confined to the mere opening of the meeting .. ( No , no , and go on . ) Then , sectioned by their pvnr . ission , h ? would ie ] i the working classes , that no -matter how sceptics might argue , or philG-= opliers decree , without rmver-al Suffrage the working- chssss could not hope for better days . { Immense cheering . ] He spoke in presence of high authority , Mr . Feargus O'Connor , and he told the people that till the -close of thft reign of Henry Yi , Universal Suffrage was the law of the land , and then a working man could purchase a sheep for part of his week ' s wages , and the l ^ irislatnre was compelled to pass an act of Parliament that he . should pot -wear a coat ofrnon ; value than twentv .-foux-shillings a vard . / Cheers . )

      These were goodnmes , not what the Tories called the good old rime ? , but what the working men ought to consider as sncti . Then , taxation vras measured bynanoEalre ^ airemeiit . Then , there wasno civil list . .-Talking of the-civil li = r , wliich amounted to ¦ OTer a . jnSiion stBTixus per snnvan . aud which was supposed to b # pocket money ; " or pin money for the Qneen , let not the people be deceived ; it was the wages of corrupt ion ( great cheering ) . For instance , -out of the funds the master of the sfc ; g hounds bad his salary , and surelv no ore eversaw the queen at a stag houi ^ or thought her fon d of the sucrt . ( . Cheers , and laughter . ) All these absurdities had grown out of the mode and manner in which the paople were taxed for the benefits of ihvir

      oppressors . ( Cheers . ) The American war , that « ar against liberty- cost the present generation the interest of - £ 2 . 500 , * , and the principal might also be demanded . Then followed tlie . French revolut ion , wherein the attempt to suppre&sliberal opinions acd . prevent their propagation in England , together with the necessity of placing a Bourbon upon the throne , cost this country tnebalance of-eight hundred millions . ( Great caeers . ) To alter such a state of things was their aim and tlieir duty , and those who had followed him through his political career would bear witness , that though he had never counselled the peeple to violence , yet he had never failed to work their moral force up to the sticking point , to prepare them for" the worst . ( Cheers , and bravo

      Donbleday , ) He yielded to no man m his Ioyp for the constitution and order ; but he was convinced that neither could be preserved , until the people were really admitted into the pale of that constituno . ( Cheers . ) The folly of joining the Whigs in their ^ crusade against abuses which were not of VFMg creation" was now seen , and the people began to discover that a hardship by whomsoever imposed was still a hardship . ( Cheers . ) He knew the people well ; he had known the people long and for himself he Tiad no dread of committing Lisliie , his liberty , and his property to the disposal of laws made by the people . ( Repeated cheers . ) Each party was now courting pounlar support , while both joined in withholding popular right . ' ( Cheers . )

      He chanenjred any man to produce npon the other side so great , so powerful , so orderly , so numerous a meeting as that he had the Ironour to address , the largest meeting above comparison ever assembled . Thousands upon thousands had marched twenty miles to testify their approval of the national object , which had been laid down by the men of Birmingham , namely one grand and moral assault for a month or a " week against the Excisemen , aad the day is our own . ( Great cheers-1 Mr . Doubleday then entered into a statistical review of the wages of working men in former days , together with the price of provisions in those days ; and satisfactorily proved , that the whole error of the system arose out

      of tlie fact of the people having no share in the appointment of their representatives . ( Great cheers . ) As their most untiring champion , and most eloquent advocate , Mr . Feargus O'Connor was there to address them , he would conclude by assuring the meeting , that so long as a grievance remained , so long would he be ready to obey all reasonable commanis of his Radical brethren . ( Immense cheering . ) He knew that he need not inculcate the necessity of keeping order : upon disorder our enemies lived ; by order we should triumph . He thanked the meating for the courteous reception he had received , -ana sai down amid the most tumulruous and general approbation .

      Ma . Ayr , a working man , then came forward to move the first resolution . 1 . That repeated and fatal experience has proved the futility and folly of expecting any redress of grievances from the House of Commons , as at present const ituted ; and after a lapse " of several j-ttars , finding the Reform Bill produce nothing but -the most tyrannical and unjust laws ^ and believing -the elective franchise to be" the inherent and iualidnable right of every man of the age of 21 , of sane mind , and ¦ unstained by crime , this meeting leclaxesit to be "their determination nnremittiii ^ ly to use every means in their power to obtain the restoration " of this , their birthright , and , by its ixercise , elect such a House of Commons as will "legislate for the happiness of the millions .

      ^ e said , that the payment which the people were receiving for the millions they paid , was the hearty reception which foreigners were receiving , for bending the knee of subserviency to an Infant Queen . ( Cheer * . ) Theworkzngpeojjlesong iiforno ' more than those rights which the constitution guaranteed , and as a working man ^ he would not stop short of their very fullest attainment . ( Great cheers . ) True they had not ihe same inducements to assemble that Lords Clebarn and Egnnton and their aristocrats had to npp . irtion the weights which race horses could carry —( cliesrs )—to regulate the order and fashion of debauchery , in tinsD garments , to laugh to % com the ban is that wrought them . ( Great cheers . ) No :

      tueirs was a more noble purpose , a more holy undertaking ; they had assembled not to crown a puppet , but to crown a principle . ( Great cheering . ) They tad assembled to say , —« For the service we render , we jaosthaveabcorded ions a suitable return : and th it must be protection for our birthright , which is our labour . ( Immense cheering . ) The Birmingham , thi national , demand would be sent among them , snd it would receive their siguatores , and the more -willingly as it was to'be the last document in the j * Aapeo fa petition . ( Cheers . ) Air . A yr moved the resolution in a most able and powerful speech , of ¦ srhich we can give . bnt a mere outline , and concluded amid hearty cheer * .

      Mr . Smith rose to second the resolution . He said that he had not many observations to offer ; however , he could not lose so favourable an opportunity of testifying his approbation of the proceed ings of the day . He was well convinced that , the recommendations of preceding speakers -would be attended to , and would be productive of great good iet those who -were formalrrih the habit of jetting ^ p pnblic -demonstrations k » Whig or Tory pur-4 Kwes try and prodace such a meeting as ihV prer aent—the most numerous ever convened in the Coanrjr ofNorthnmberlasd . ( Cheers . / They copld not etfeer it , and why ? because die oppression which , created it had not reached the privileged order . ( Cheerf . ) The go » d things of life irere diviiad amongitike enfranchised tew , while the disfranchised many had but the poor , resource of ia ^ Lin ^ their lamentation to the air . ( Cheerg . ) But tins day would read the aristocracy a lesson . This day would teach them , that however they may

      crown a monarch , they can attach no power to' the monarchy without the sanction of tie working classes . He condii&eA by seconding the resolution , and was hearty cheered . . ' . ' Mr . O'Connor then presented himself , and was cheered for several minutes . : He said , that his heart responded to the princi p les of tha resolution , and biB . right arm swore allegiance to his judgment ( cheers ) . Much reluctance as he had felt at seeing Mr . Dubbledayin the chair instead of a working man , it had now ranisbed before the sound principles he bad ^ delivered . This day , perhaps at this hour , a woman of eighteen years of age i * abont to be crowned , without that ceremony she was invested with full executive authority , by which—in- 'her

      wisdom—she is empowered to controul the laws and establish new costoms , and while _ this extraordinary power , of revision , correction , and legal supremacy is given to an infant , surely we cannot be considered destructives for requiringasingle vote , for those who have arrived at the age of manhood , in the nomination of their representatives . ( Great cheering . ) The question with ns now is , how the new reign shall commence . ( Hear , hear . ) Whether , in the new lease the old lessors , who are the government , shall have a life interest in the produce of the nation , while the lessees , who are the middle clas » , and constituent body , hold quietly their tenure , the condition being the right of the latter to use the tmwitiIb . fnr thmr nwn snip visfi . hfthnof and Vionnfit i

      W ^^^ 4 ^ m ^ ^ ^^ v ^ ^ l ^ ^ ^ p^^^— ^^ ^ r- ~ . ^ — r ^^^ v v ^ v ^ m ^* ^^^^^ ^^ J ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^^^^^^ ^^^ V ^ F ya ^ Hw— J ( Cheers . ) Mr . O'Connor had not come there to talk of specific grievances , or to remove anv of which they complained , because the removal ofa small one was invariably met by the infliction of a greater , — < great cheering , )—therefore , he should confine himself to the general system of fashionable policy , by which , withjthebestintentions , the monopolyofthe representedordermnstincrease . Theday ' ssonebywhen man ' s principle could be guessed at by Ms political creed ; for money being the basisof most men ' s politics , and the present system wholly depending upon the subjection and submisstionj of the working classes , a rich Radical , who had a share in the national plunder , was likely to be as dangerous a man as

      the most rabid Tory , or the most inveterate Whig . ( Immense cheering . ) For those reasons , he Mr . Mr . O'Connor had divided political society into two classes , namely , the rich oppressor , and the poor oppressed . ( Cheers . ) Before the Reform Bill had abr idged the power of the people , and augmented the political , corporate , and social authority of the newly enfranchised community , we numbered a few wealthy men of onr order , but Whig principles being rotten , national weight , aad local distinctionwas given to their * dherents , upon the condition of a complete prostitution ofthe trust which they hold for the people . ( Great cheering . ) Our too great intemperance , the strength of the Tory party , aud the determine ! opposition ofthe Lords , are chauuted as apologies for the do-nothiiig ministry , —( Cheers , ) wbile an inspection of their own measures ,

      originating with tnemselves , and certainly worthy of Tory support , will teach us that the \ Y higs in power have dared to orignate , and not failed to carry measures , which—if out of power—they would have acquired popularity bv opposing . ( Cheers . ) A way then with the fanciful preference for either Whig or Tury . He , Mr . O'Connor , was in alliance with two men , the one calling himself a Tory , and the other declaring that lie belonged to no political creed , and there did not exist two better Radicals , two more determined haters of oppression , or two more foithml friends to the cause of liberty and the working classes ; he need scarcely name , Richard Oastler , and the Rev . Joseph Stephens . ( Great cheering . ) Mr . O'Connor was sustained in his

      ¦ pil gr image , bi the snpport and consolation which W derived from the counsel and assurances of those unflinching and untiring friends to the cause vf labour and the poor , ( cheers ) while his beat strung nerves were required to fortify Mm agiiinst the schemes , the tricks and the machiniitious of those calling themselves Radicals . ( Cheers . ) The exactitude with which politicians of the present day measure their principle by the labour market note , was in nothing more fuJy proved , than in the sudden rise which Mr . O'Conuell experienced in the good graces of his former bitterest enemies , by his ungenerous , "uncalled for , unprovokeu ar . d traitorous attacks upon the traces of Dublin , England , ana Scotland . This wily mouser saw how the cat jumped *

      This banker knew that the blood , and the sweat ofthe unrepresented Irish , should be discounted at his national counter , and he waged war against ihe force who had fought his every battle , and who had lost by his every triumph . ( Cheers . ) Thus said Mr . O ' Connor , you have tae whole body of the exclusive party opposed to you , no matter how distinguished by political names , and it is to beat all , and for ever crush their power , that we are now assembled . ( Immense cheering . ) Aye , continued Mr . O'Connor , and we'll do it . The moral power of the people has been tried patiently , used , and exercised with judgment . It was the deliberative quality which taught man huw to suffer , and when forbearance became a crime . ( Caters . ) The standard ol the rich man ' s justice , was the poor man ' s endurance , —( cheers , )—and so long as the latter , tamely suffered , so long would the former progressively increase that snnering . ( Cheers . ) Lpon all

      sides the people wf re united to a display of their moral influence , and when exhibited it was used by their rnlers as a justification for suppressing the rising turbulent spirit ofa discontented rabble . ( Lond and cont inued cheering . ) When Bristol was in flames , Necastle in a blaze , and Jsottingham threatened , or when the middle classes followed in the mournful procession of departing monarchy—when upon their banners were exhibited the drooping head of a king , and the bloody axe of the executioner—wben the State was threatened to its ' very centre by b . brawling faction panting for power tu abuse it —{ immense ci . eering )—when the Infidel Fitzwllliam , and the Malthusian Brougham , led on the assault against the national exchequer , and threatened a national bankruptcy , unless their party were the banker . *—( cheers)—that was moral force , peaceably , discreetly , and constitutionally nsed . ( Uproarious applause . ) He ( Mr . O'Connor ) had ne \ er counselled » uch an exhibition of moral

      forcehe had ever directed the people in the legitimate use of it , and now that a new era had arrived—now that a new reign had commenced , which should be an omen of new measures , suiting to new times , conforming to present circumstances , and based upon national demand—he ( Mr . O'Connor ) had no objection once more to parade their moral power , and to appeal to their judgment and discretion for the promotion of thuse great objects , which for years had been sought by the working clause . * , and in the event of moral power , judgment , discretion , and reason , not producing the anticipated result , he had no hesitation in saying that rather than snbmit to the reign of tyranny and lewd dominion of a faction he would lead thepeople to death or glory . (

      Tremendous and Jong continued applause . ) It Mas superfluous to point out the progressive improvement of the rich in luxury , independence , and sloth , which may be ludicrously contrasted with the inverse ratio which marked the progressive declersion of popular comforts . ( Cheers . ) Having formany years looked in vain for a partial reform in our several institutions . The considerations which are now naturally suggested to ns , are tkose . Whether or no , while improvements in arts and science , in mechanism , and literature are rapidly hurrying on to the gaol of perfection , the science of legislation is alone to stand still r ( Cheers . ) Whether or no , the vast and gigantic strides which society has made in latter years would sanction the application of new measures to new circumstances ? Wlether or no , our form of

      government principally the manufactnre of barbarous ages , is applicable to present refinement ? Whether the disparity which distinguishes the classes of the human family are requisite and necessary as well for the body as the soul , and whether all the necessary forms ef a good state of society are improved or damaf ed by that disparity ? Whether or no , a better order of things coula be established by the reciprocal dependency of the several ordure upon each other r Whether or no , the present system of Government is the very best which the ingenuityjof man can apply to existing circumstances ? And , if not , to devise the necessary alterations . Whether or not the amount of benefit conferred on the people is commensurate with the amount of compensation paid

      oy the people . ( Long continued cheering . ) Such are the considerations to which we must now direct our attention ; and , if inffering positively or negatively , either by longer endurance of wrong oi abstinence from articles , btcome , by use , in part necessary , we will make one general muster and display of our moral power , which failing , we will fight the advocates ofcorruption and exclusion , with the arguments of tyrants ; fcut , come what will , andshould we die in the last ditch , we will , at all events , leave to posterity a eonstitutien worth living nnder , and worth dying for . ( Repeated and long continued cheering . ) Mr . O'Connor proceeded to point out the various anarchies which had crept into the constitution and showed' that one and all proceeded from a want of Universal Suffrage . He said that never did he feel prouder than in accompanying hi- Irish brethren under the national colour and to the time of eoinjrover to the field that day . ( Cheers . )

      He then explained why the English Radicals had not joined O'Connell in his weather cock career , and denounced that gentleman ' s attempt to establish a Catholic aristocracy , who would be as geat tyrants as the Protestants when they get power . ( Cheers from the Irish , and ayei aad worse . ) Mr . O'Connor entered fully into the causes of distress , and shewed the meana of redress ; h * inveighed against slashing tlarryBrpagham , and his brother Infidel—Lord Fitzwilliam , in bitter terms j and excited much nrirth and laughter , when introducing Lord and Lady Brougham to a Workhouse , under the system wfcich Universal Suffrage would produce , when they would snrely have a ward for idle I ^ ords an d Xadies . Mr . O'Connor Kpokft at cmiaderakle length , and sat down " amid loud and rapturous applause . Mr . Hepburn came forward to move the second resolution . He said that notwithstanding" the many attempts to frustrate their endeavours , the men of Northumberland were still alive to their interest .

      ( Cheers . ) The « eward of Lord Ravens worth Aad offered bis colliers three quarto of porter a many -if they abstained from marching to-day . with banners belonging to their order , ' but the brave colliera laughed thebrute . to > scorn j . and be . now saw before him the banner floating' in the breeze . ( Immense cheering . ) Othe ? machinations bad been at work \ but all to no purpose . The list link of , confidence was snapped , and the people viewed with suspicion , those who would not work for them , nor allow theinselves to work out their political salvation ; [ Cheers ;] No man better understood the dispositions of the colliers than he , ; and he told the government to be aware , they may be led by fair mei anai , but they could notlon ^ er be driven . He concluded by moving the resolution— -.-, ¦' . ; ,

      2 . That this meeting further believes that the only security againsfc the corruption of the few r and the degradation ofthe many , is to give to'the pVopIe equalrights , social and political—by the exercise of which they will improve '• their condition , acquire knowledge , and , by experience , learn wisdom . That to obtain these rights , it is necessary that the elective franchise-should be exercised without loss or injury , wbich can only be effected by secret voting ; that as all classes and interests should be equally represented , no other qualification ought to be required from Members of Parliament , than the choice of tie constituency ; and to purify tb » venal stream of corruption as speedily as possible , Parliaments ought to be elected annnally ; He was loudly cheered . : i

      Mr . M'Kenzie rose to Becoud th& resolution . He said that he was sorry to be obliged to speak feelingly upon the question of secret voting , but so long as the law ot p rimogeniture made the lawmakers the providers lor their idle sons and relatives , so long would the landlord say vote for ine , thatmay support my family ,: or ^ quit the premises . ( Cheers . ) He , as an elector , had p roposed a vote of thanks to Mr . Gladstone , and received / hi * discharge npon thP following morning . ( Shame . )/ It was not the first foolish thing he had done ; he had subscribed to Daniel O'Conuell for nine years , every ; year , till within the last , when he knew he was a traitor . ( Cheers , and don ' t bother us with the fellpw ; , —to the question . ) The question then is , thattill each man has the vote , the ballot " would bean injustice ; but when all are enfranchised , the ballot will be necessary . ( Cheers . )

      Mr . Pluker came forward to move the third resolution— . ' 3 . That as Members " . of ParUament ..-. bright to be the delegates of . the people to secure the honest performance of their duties , it is the opinion of this meeting that a return should be niade to the old custom of paying their Represeutativws . in Parliament . . He said that the thing he wished to see was full grown" bearded law makers , instead of babies in smock frocks—m *> n who were , worthy of their hire—( cheers)—and when we paid our o . wn " . money , our own business would bu done ; but so long as others paid our money fur professedlv doing our ; business , —( hear , hear , hear)—it would bd : direGted to personal service , ' aud imlmdvnvl .-aggriuidi / vment . [ Cheers . ] Cicero was a wise . AiauV and hp did not liiink that the ruling power was ¦ ¦ without controul ; he said that the Romans ruled the worid , and the

      women ruled the Romans ; and , therefore , tliey were the governors . [ Hear , aud laughter . ] Now , he should like to bring up a broodvwhose - tii'st iisjiiug should be Universal Sutlnige , Annual l * iu : liamenK and Vote by Ballot .

He moved the resolution amid much applause , and . ¦ Mr . Alder rose to second it . He said , if yon get j-our work gratuitously done , it will be badly done . Itis not plunderers that we require , who in default of good wages fur honest service , will ; be like the Scotch servantindifl ' erent about pay , ' as he would be always helping himself . [ Load cheery aud laughter . J ' Wv must return w the practice of sending working men to represent working ihen . ai > d of paving them according to their performance . — ( Cheers . )

      Mr . Charlton then presented himself to move the Uirniiughain petition , which has nppearodin our columns , and was louJlv clieered . We regret , however , that this talented gentleman moved the adoption of the petition without any prefatory remarks , in consequence of the length to which the proceedings had gone . 4 . That the Birmingham petition be adopted by this meeting , and -that a copy of it be sent to each town and village in the . district for signature ; and th at when . Mgui'd , it be- presented to the House o Cunimons by Thomas j \ ft wood , E » q ., Al . P . for Birmingham , and that Messrs . Wttkley and FiolJen be requested to support the same . Mr . Lowry . from South Shields , camo forward to

      second the adopuou of the petition , aud w-ju inos-t cliVerfully greeted . He said that ho rejoiced to see the grand display of moral force , the forerunner of physical force , if it should be required . Many of his friends at Shields were baited with the bone of sensuality , if they would absent themselves from the meeting . " The Cooksons had provided a dinner for the poor out of their own money . ( Cheers and laughter . ) Yes , out of the sick fund . ( Renewed laughter . ) What a munificent host , and yet could he not prevail upon the guod men of Shields to prefer a meal for the body to a feast for the mind . They had heard much of physical force ; they had seen audaciously paraded before them , the t inseled soldier , paid with their money . ( Cheers . ) Yes , the

      LommandtJi' ol the Mihcary had dared to disturb the quiet of this meeting by a parade of his military ibrce . ( Cheers . ) this was the omen of the new reign , _( cheers-, ) and let the people take a lesson from it and henceforth back their rnorul force with physical power ; let every man in future come to public meetings with a musket in his hands , ( repeated cheers , ) lest lie might require it . ( Cheers . ) There were an abundance of muskets in the neighbourhood , and this day ' s presumption would bring them into u . e . ( Cheers ); Who ever saw such an exliibitionr Foot and dragoons actually marched into a public meeting of Englishmen . ( Shaine . ) This is the way the Crown is to be . supported ; but let us teach the Monarch that she but holds it in

      trust , and that when her protection goes , our allegiance follows . ( Great cheering . ) Money-mongers have given her a golden Crown at the expense bf the peo ple ; but the people can , and will if necessary take back the Crown . ( Cheers . ) The same force which sent Charles to the block —( hear)—and James from the throne is still abroad , and the news through England to our br . jve brethren of Lancashire and Yorkshire , that soldiers were t > . is day marched npon thepeople to produce bloodshed and murder , will do much to marshal that force for their own protection . Let them rememberPeterloo a . id Canterbury . ( Cheers and " We will . " ) No man should vouch with his tongue what he fears to support with his hand . ( Cheers , and "We'll do it . " ) He would

      allow the Lord and the Squire , and the shopkeeper his due , but no more , and in return the people must have their '? . ( Cheer ? . ) The brightest days of English histery were those which recounted the struggles of the freeman for liberty . For himself , he would rather hire a lean freeman than ufat slave . ( Tremendous applause . ) M .. O'Coxxor then proposed a vote of thanks to Mr . Donbleday , and took the opportunity of inveighing , in the most strong and bitter terms we ever heard , against the conduc ; of t : ie Commander of the District , who was with his forces , within ten yards of the hustings . — Mr . O'Connor observed that as good courage was under a blue coat or ablack coat as under ared coat , and the only reason , under his present excitement , that he held the people in ' subjection , was because Jie had not arms to meet the foe at the

      moment . The cavalry and infantry marched in the front and rear of the meeting , cutting the body into three sections—the hissing and attempts to frighten the horses was going to a great length , when Mr . O'Connor mounted upon across bar of the hustings and hurled defiance at the cowardly assailants . He promised them and the people that their ungentlemanlike and unconstitutional conduct , should be brought before the House of Commons , and notwithstanding his best endeavours , many rushed from the platform to bring the Commanding Officer to task , when thegallant gentleman rode off . It was touch and go , and if a shot had heeii fired Newcastle would have blazed . When the military were gone Mr . O'Connor pasta high euloginm upon Mr . Doubleday , and a vote of thanks was given to him with acclamation ; after which 9 times 9 cheers were given for Feargus O'Connor , and three cheers for General Arthur O'Connor .

      Mr . DouBLEDiAt and Mr . O'Coxnor returned thanks , " and notwithstanding the attempts of the military the meeting separated peaceably .

      Mr . BROTHERTON and Mr . FIELD EN supported the petition . Mr . HARVEY presented a petition from the Guardians of the Poor of St . George-the-Martyr , Southwafk . The petition anfoHeS , in a striking degree , the defective working of the Poor Law regarding the point to Which it referred . The petitioners complained : that they were now , with the high rating , many thousands of pounds in debt more than

      before , and yet the poor were not so well satisfied . Dr . Arnptt , a man dear to science , and whose name was well known in that House , had examined and reported upon the insalubrity of the proposed site for the new w'orkhbuse ' - ;¦ yet the commissioners had insisted upon its being there built at a vast expense . The petitioners therefore ^ prayed that in any future dealing with the Poor Laws , the rate-payers may be secured in a controul over the funds they contribute to .

      Sir EDWARD KNATCHBULL , moved the ' appointment of a select committee to inquire into all the circumstances connected with the discharge of John Nichols Thom , alias Cpurtenay , from the Kent Lunatic Asylum . This gave ; rise to a long decentibus kind of a tub-to-the-whale debate , mingled with no small share of petty persohalities between the " honourable gentfemen on both sides of the House . We shall not occupy space witV any report of the debate , as it is welldiscussed in the letter of our excellent friend Bronterre . On a division , there appeared , For the committee ... 131 Against it ... ... 110 Majority ... 21

      Ihe most prominent portion of the debate was the reciprocal bandying of the LE , in the most polite manner possible , between Mr . E . L . Bulwer raid Mr . Praed ,- ^ from which , murder was apprehended between the two gentlemen . Mr . Praed left the house—and a most pathetic and universal call was made upon Mr . Bulwer to keep the peace . That gentleman was in an awkward predicament ; he threw himself , however , gracefully on the superior experience of Sir Henry HardiHge— Would you ¦ fi ^ lit under such circumstances ?"—The nianof war iniiUly said " " . And so Mr . Bulwer said ho too , so that , after all , this mighty affair did not even achieve theimportance of ending in smoke .

      Coronation . —At a general meeting ofthe Manchester'Uui versaVSuffrage Association , it was resolved unanimousl y : —That in the opinion of this meeting the noble and praiseworthy conduct of the twentythree united trades ( of Manchester ) , iu refusing to sanction arid support the present system of society , by lending their persons to swell the pomp and parade of royalty j on the occasion of the coronation of her present Majesty , merits the best thanks of this society , and that the best thanks of the members ot this society be given to the twenty-three united trades of Manchester for their noble and praiseworthy conduct oq the above occasion . " " That the above

      vote of thanks be forwarded to the counsel of the trades unions at their next meeting , and a copy cf the sanae be forwarded to the Northern Star for insertion . " Murd'eh ' -.- — -It-is-with , much regret that we have to record the death of an individual who was wantonly killed in Miller-street , oil Saturday evening last , without having given the least provocation to the person whom the jury , at the inquest , have branded with the title of his murderer . Thedeceased , whose name was Michael / Warren , was , as far as could be judged from the appearance of his body after death , between 40 and 50 years of age . He was a hawker , of stockings and SHiallwares , and a

      pensioner , and lived at a lodging house kept by a man named John Fairen , in Simpson-street . The full particulars of thevcase are given in the evidence before the inquest , which w-as held at the Rising Sun , Shudehill , on Monday evening last . A person named John Hardman , a reputed thief , and commonly known by ihe nickname of" Tim Bobbin , " was in custody and present at the inquest , charged with having given the deceased the blow which caused his death . The evidence was as follows : — James ' M'Mahon , of 162 , Long Mili ta te , shoemaker , deposed . —About 20 minutes past 12 , on Saturday night last , I was crossing to go down Millerstreet , from Shudehill , and saw the deceased ; and

      John Hardinan , and three boys who were together , jostled against the deceased , who was on the opposite side to where I was crossing * I can ' t say whether the prisoner jostled against the deceased . I can ' t say whether it was wilful or not . The deceased and another man were standing inthe footpath ; the deceased made some observations , but I did not hear What ; and then the prisoner struck him a severe blow on the head , and knocked him down . The prisoner then passed on down MiUerstreet , and the three lads imtnediately after him ; and , it being my way home , I went that way too . When the deceased recovered from his blow , he ran down the street after the prisoner ; and one of the

      lads behind the prisoner said , "He ' s coming !" The prisoner turned round , and said , " Mind what a hit I'll give him . " The deceased stopped running ; and , before he came to the prisoner , passed to his right , and looked him in front as if to know him again . After looking at him , he went into the centre of thestreet as if to avoid him ; and was then returning towards his ; friend , when a man came behind the prisenerj and said , Pitch into hito , there's no one with him . " The prisoner then went up to him , and struck him a severe blow with the right hand on the left ear . The deceased reeled ; and the prisoner , before he fell , hit him another severe blow' with his left hand on the right ear . The

      deceased then fell very heavily on his head upon the flags , his senses seeming to be knocked out of him ; the prisoner said , ' . 'That ' s a sickener , " and Tan away np Blackley-street . Two men came to the assistance of deceased , and earried him to the door of Mr . Wrigley , who lives near ; the friend who was with him said he would help to carry him to his lodging / A watchman came up , and I described the prisoner to him ; I did not know his name ; I am sure the prisoner is the man ; the deceased never struck . the prisoner . Other witnesses gave similar testimony . Mr . Oilier , of Manchester , surgeon , This afternoon , I examined the body of the deceased , in company with Sickle and Armitage , the officers ;

      the stomach was in an unhealthy condition , as if from babite of drinking , and contained a small quantity of brown fluid ; there was a slight bruised wound in the middle of the right ear ; there was extravasasioh ofiblood between the scalp and the scull , on the left and back part of the head ; there had been a flow of blood from that ear , there was great extravasation of blood ; along the course of the membranes of the brain , externally and internally , which extendedto the commencement of the spinalmarrow . I have no doubt that these appearances were the cause bf death , and they must have been produced , in my opiniohj by external violence ; either by a blow or a fall , or both . ; The Coroner then summed up the evidence ; and , in the course of a short charge to the jary , said , "Tojustiry ; a ; verdict of manslaughter only , there . inast have been some provocation . In

      this case there did not appear to have been any provocation whatever ; but the blows were g iven when the deceased was returning up the street , The judge , when be saw the depositions , might , if they found a verdict for manslaughter , direct an indictment to be laid for murder ; or the _ graud jury might ignore the bill for murder , and find one for manslaughter . In his opinion , however j it was a clear case of murder ; but if they cousidered that there wan the least mitigating circumstances , he should recommeiid them to find st Verdict of mani slaughter . " Th « 5 jury then consulted for half an hour , and at the end . of that ^ time returned , a yerdict pi wilful murder against ^^ John Hardman .- ^ -Thecoroner then committed thei prisoner to take his trial at the ensuing Liverpool assizes , and he was conveyed in ahackney coach to the New Bailey for the night . He did not appear to be much afiected .

      : ; , ¦¦ ' ; ;¦;¦ ¦ ¦; " ¦ ' ; . ' ¦; bolton . ¦ = - ¦ ¦ ;;; ' ¦; . ' :- ; r >; c ¦'¦ Destructive Fire' AT Bolton .- —^ On Monday afttraoon last , about twenty ininutes before five o'clock , ah alarm of iire was given in the town - « f Bolton ; Midf being market day , in . a very few minutes a connderable concourse ofn persons wag attracted to the neighbourhood of the large factory in Weston-street , belonging to / Messrs .. Ormrod and Hardcastle , and generally called the Royal George Factory . It appears that , abont half-past / four , the workrpebple employed in the attici or what is there called the " cbcklbftj" ' of theinill , were ^ driven from their work by fire , which originated hi their room , either froni the friction of the Machinery * : or the spontanebtts ignition of cotton , but which cannot at present be ascertained ; Xhie being the , scutcheon

      room , as well as the batting room , it contained a great quantity of cotton , sonie of it being in * k «> se state , aiid consisting of flyings , from the natore of the preparations for spinning ; it therefore ignifed with a rajjidity scarcely imaginable , -asid / the workpeople kad scarcely time to procure the articles of clotnirig cast off during working hours . On the arrival of the engines aha the crowd , in a few minutes afterwards , nothing was perceptible , with the exception of wnoke issuing through the apertures in the roof ; but before the engines could oe brought into operation , it burst out into a volume of flame . It appeared quite evident that , the fire having originated in the day time , there being plenty of water and assistance , and little or no wina , and having to

      burn downwards m order to consume the nailli the progress of the flames might have been arrested before they could have communicated with the lower rooms , had there been an efficient set of engines in the town . But this . was not the case , and it was some time before the engines could be brought to play at all ; and even ; then , 4 t was in a manner calculated to do littleor ho gobdi , Several gentlemen made themselves particularly ! active , land rode on' for other engines * In ; a short time , those of Messrs . Ash worth , Turton ; jyln Baine 3 , Jkfoses Gate ; Mr . Cromptonj Farnwbrth ; MivHardcastle , Bradshaw ; and Mr . Ainsworth i / Halliwell , arrived at the spot : but by this time the fire had-got such a hold , that , in the opiniou of " nearly all , the mill

      would be burned down , which was too truly realised . Floor after floor < 3 r

      another was earned oft with a broken leg : and a third with a broken arm . The others appeared ab 2 e to walk , but were much shaken . This" occurrence diverted the attention oj the . bjstandersfrom the cpntiagration for a few minutes , during wliich the flames appeared to have madegfeat progress ; , and another incident now attracted general attention . A man had ascended a ladder , and gone into the room below the one in which the fire was raging , where he was in danger of being overwhelmed every moment ; and neither shouts nor entreaties could persuade him to come down , until the ceiling actually gave way , and a mass of burning materials fell into tli * room where he stood , ' . Most fortunately he escaped with hi « life . ' . ; ¦ ' ¦ but such was his situation

      that his shirtwas burnedunon ms back , which appeared to be much scorched . Not long after this , a man who was conveying a pipe xip the ladder , was swept to the . ground , a distance of four'i-tnries , by some lead , whicfi , on-. being melted , fell from the spout . He was taken up , and conveyed home , and nowiiejiin a dangerous state . On the east end of the factory was a small building ^ two stories high , used as a reeling-room , which the ; fire had not reached . A young woman , who had been employed in it , anxious to preserve / her .:. reel / . and work , ascended a ladder into the upper story of the place with two men , all of whom were busily engaged in throwing the twistand machinery out . During this time the nVe hadreachiijd the bottomstory butone . and

      the roof and noorings above had fallen < in . The firemen had given up all ho ' pes .-. of ' -saviiig' the . mill , and directed their attention to the engine-hoiise : and cottages adjacent . This was a most fortunate circumstance for them , as they had removed out of the way of the south wall , ¦ ¦ -which separated in the middle , and one-half of it fell upon and towards the reeling-room , which contained the woman and two men . The shrieks of the irssembled hundreds may be better imagined than described , on perceiving the portion of falling wall carry with it the roof of the reeling room . One ofthe men jumped oa the window stone , and saved himself ; and the other two were carried with the falling mass . The man was extricated at the upper story ; but the woman

      had been earned through to the first floor , horn whence she was brought out , we are glad to say , although much hurt , not fatally so . The man ' s face was much disfigured , but he had no bones broken . At about nine o clock , all appeared a perfect ruin , the front wall having fallen inwards , thereby doing no damage ; and nothing remained savfi the engine house and the wall at the other end . By the active use of the country engines , the fire was prevented from csmmunicating with any other building . Tie mill which has thus been destroj-ed was the largest in Bolton , and contained , we believe , about 50 , 00 i > spindles . The total lo . - * is estimated at nearly ± 40 , 000 , of which about £ 26 , 000 is covered by insurance ; and the effect of the tire will be to throw four or five hundred persons out of employment . —Manchester Guardian .

From the alteii tion of the market to thisday , in consequence of tbe coronation , business operations have thereby , to * certain extent , been contracted ; excepting from this cause the general opinion is , that the sale effected to day are on a par with those for several

      weeks past . The progressive advance in the pritf * of wool and yarn has produced an increased firmnesi in the prices of piece goods . The Merchants are indisposed to purchase freely at an advance ^ Sixquarter wide Merinos generally are about two shy Iing 8 per piece higher : the market is now cornparatively cleared of the lower qualities in siz-ups&t Merinos , and / at- present they are higher in ^ op ' tiph than other qualities .
