      TRIUMPHANT DEFEAT OF THE WHIG ^ ACTION , &SD CLOBIOUS TIPTOKY OF THE CHARTISTS , AT DERBY . The town , w puWicly placarded in the week ending March 6 th , announcing tb » t a public meeting would beheld in the Town H * 21 , on Thursday noon , at twelve o'doci , lo taie into consideration the propriety 0 / p ** Ktoning Parliament to remove the prohibitions and restrictions imposed by the existing commercial code , aod revise the tariff of import dutie * , with a yiew of reducing the price of some of the most important neces-» ries oflife , and to increase the commerce and revenue of tbe country . Immediately on ttie appearance of this announcement , tbe Chartists met and resolved to oppose them , and tened cat a placard , ailing npon the working men of Derby to be » i their post—to be no longer duped by the fictions—to be peaceable and erderly—to be men now CT never ; and that Mr . Baiwtow , the unflinching adromte of tie lroriting man ' s righto , 'Would address the ¦ H ^ CAiTTg .

      _ At twehre 'dock on the day of meeting , the doors of ate Town Hall were opened , and a tremendous crush wai made into the targe hall of tke building—a place ttat iria hold 1 , 400 persons , and was three 7 ourths filled by a most attentive and enthusiastic audience . JS ^ i * >! °£ ^ £ SSOP ' "d other gentlemen conaeeted -with the Whig party , entered the Hall , and a muerable failure at cheering was attempted . After f ^?^ ^ - * tbat genUeman placed himself in that situation , though the motion had not been put to Ue meeting , and the general laughter of the assembly indicated that they deemed U L 2 ular ! though unworthy further notice . He openedthe Jaeetag by reading the original placard , convening the

      Immediately on taking the chair , Mr . Farss-woetb a Uaartist , rose and moved that the meeting be ad-Jourued to seven O ' clock in the evening , in . consequence SLfVS ^ V ^ ****** «« to «*»* 3 that untimely hour , which was received with tremendous peering from the body of the Hall , while the Whig * looked inalterable things from the benches .

      commencement in the evening , Tast crowds were crowding every svenue leading to the Town HalL The Hal ) was speedily filled to excess , —the jnayor , the gentry , aristocracj , and middle-class men of the town and vidaity , taring , prior to the opening of the doors , snugly seated themselves on the bench , in the witness box , fcc , fcc But even those places were but very imperfectly fiUed by the respectables , though not affording accommodation to more than one-sixth of the immense mass in ihe body of the Hall ; but the Mayor , having giv * n liberty for admission promiscuously , those p&rte became ae densely wedged together as human beings ecmid bear .

      The adjenroed meeting then commenced by the VxroB . reading the placard , Bt&ting that any person wonM be allowed to speak , and called npon Mr . Johnso > " to move the first resolution ; the same be read in the meeting at noon , stating , " That the import duties were oppressive t # the eountry , and that their repeal would better the condition of the poor , increase the commerce and revenue of the country , and that the meeting would petition Parliament on the subject . " He spoke to the motion for half an hour , beine heard

      with perfect decorum , but great impatience wrw manifested on the part of the meeting . He said that a reduction in the impwt duties , and the total repeal of the Corn laws , would increase our commerce , raise " wxges , cheapen food , give plenty of employment to the Industrious , &c . ; and he poured forth a lachrymose peroration on th » decline of . England ' s commercial greatness , asd feared she . would fall in the struggle , except the aristocracy would agree to a repeal of the bread tax , and all other prohibitory duties , and give a perfectly free trade . Having finished his monetonous iifrelline ,

      Mr . Alderman Babkek seconded the motion , and sat down . " VThen the Mato& was procceeding to put the motion , Mr . TCB . KEB rose amid groat and general cheering , and moved the following amendment : — " That , while this meeting approves of any revision or reform in the Commercial Code , adapted to relieve the oppressive burdens under which the workiEg Classes labour , it will not petition a Parliament in ¦ wh ich the people are n # t represented , for anything short of the People ' s Charter , to give the entire nation a full , free , and equal representation in the Hoasa of Commons by Universal Suffrage . " Having read it , he would sit down , leaving Mr . Bairstow to speak to it Mr . Twiss having seconded it ,

      Mr . Bates low rose opon the benches , and was received by the meeting with tLs most enthusiastic cheering . He proceeded to expatiate upon the neces-« ity of procuring the People ' s Charter , and upon the arguments that had been urged by the m-jver and seconder of the resolution respecting the revision of the tariff -, and he pointed out the vast increase in the pro -ductive energies of the country , unaccompanied as they were by any addition to the wages of the producers . He could appeal , he said , to the thousands offramework knitters in that town and country , whether or not they had receded higher wages in consequence of producing nearly eight times more hosiery than they did in 178 J . Their wa ^ es now , enumerating 46 , 000 bands in the three counties of ^ fottingiam , Darby , and

      Iieieester , did not average mure than , s . per -week ( Cheers , and "that ' s true . ")—while their wages in the former period would purchase more than double the quant ty of provision and clothing that their present wages would da ( Cheers . ) Aye , and this , while our productive powers have reached the extreme point —SO that the naked , unaided energies o * 300 , 000 , 000 men could not produce more than w * -were -producing Tjy our machinery , steam , sud chemical app . 'iaaws ii industry . "Where had the thirty-nine times additiona ' produce been swallowed up , he again asked ? Xot o : the workers in society , but on the idlers , the merchants bankers , brokers , mauufacturers . lando wnera , shipowners miliowners , cowon loras , and princely millionaires the grutw of "Change Alley , the clique of cotton princes

      in the Manchester Chamber of Commerce—the Kothschilds , Raring * , &c limbs of the Old Lady of . Tbreadneedle-streeu ( Great laughter . ) These were the parties who had fattened on the gorgeous wealth they had produced by their blistered hands and hardy zrrns The speaker then entered into a number of remarks respecting the effect of cheapness of articles , the state of labour , and the results of free trade principles generally . The commercial system that had been pursued , and for an extension of which the motion breathed a desire , had been most fatal and ruinous to England . Food , to *» he amount of £ 4 , 518 , was exported from Ireland in IS ' 22 , while the poor Irish were famishing in thousands ; hundreds dropping down in th # streets , and the nakedness of thousands displayed tbe poor pauper

      pesamt starving amid plenty . < Cries at - " Sianie . ") "Were ths largest exporting countries the happiest , then would Ireland be an earthly elyiium . In the' three years , 1821-3 , sue experted upward ? of £ 16 , 000 , 000 , £ 10 , 000 , 000 being the native produce of tbe Irish soil —( shame *—to come to England . In 1710 , we exported in excess , more than we imported , by £ 214 , 297 ; in 1771 , an excess of £ 6 , 353 , 376 ; in 1789 , an excess of £ 2 , 00 * , S 77 ; in 1790 , £ 3 , 965 , 359 -, in 1300 , an excess of £ ll , iS 7 , SS 9 ; in 1818 , an excess of £ 11 , 494 , 333 ; in 1820 , an excess of £ 2-1 , 655 , 700 ; in 1 S 30 , an excess of £ 38 . " 00 , 000 ; in 1840 , an excess of £ 64 , 000 , 000 ; at the aggregate loss to the industrious millions , being in the course of 4 S years from 1792 to 1840 , no less than the enormous sum ef £ 6 , 870 , 000 , 000 all

      squandered in reckless competition on the money-mouger and capitalist , to uphold the putrid and sickening cant , called Free Trade . These were the results of that pre- mons philosophy ihat tanght them the doctrine of going i to tha cheapest market with their labour , -while they I eould make no distinction between 7 a . per week , and their former 17 s . and 18 s , to let them have a pair of stocking * per year , 3 d . cheaper . ( Lau ^ hter . j Ifr . Bairstow showed in an able manner the / oily of talking of assimilating prices between England and the contiaaai , whilst the various burdens of local and general 1 * xation of the country existed to their present extent , aod at » ueh a disproportion with those of foreign nations . The industrious classes produced £ 819 , 000 , 000 per i aannm , in agricul ture , manoiactore * , sad snnenls . .

      Ths grots asiomht of £ 552 , 000 , 900 was taken from I tbs people without their will or consent , either person- ! illy , or by delegation . The most preper name to give ] H was robbery . Those men who wished to buy labour j cbe * p , and sell it dear , did not wish to 'benefit them ne farthing oat of the 819 millions . Their only object was to grasp a tew fractions ot the hundreds of w »] iv » n » now wrested from the people , by laws , in : »* i-ipg which they ( the people ) had neither share nor voice . As the Chartiste had no public place of resort ; where they could expound their principles , and defend : tteir cause , they had determined to come hither and i Convert the Town HaJl into a Csardst chapel , their -. . rapgetea major intxa Cliartist chairman , aad thit into ' nkCauUSi Qiaatdg .

      The Mator rose , evidently embarrassed , stating that he did sot see how he could proceed , and would request Mr . Bairstow to withdraw the amendment After some desultory matters had passed on , Mr . Johxsox , the mover of the original motion , rose to reply to Mr . Bairstow's speech .

Bai&stow then replied in a masterly speech , and carried tbe mass of the meeting entirely along with him .

      The AUtor still seemed unwilling to put the amendment Several persons rose to neutralise the effects of > Ir . Bairstow ' s speech , but were Kieoenively compelled to sit down in despair . All tbe parties surrounding Mr . Bairstow were endeavouring to dissuade him from opposition , and to withdraw the amendment , and the Mayer likewise declared that he could not put it Mr .

      Alarming Fire at Chatham . —On Friday morning , a fire broke out in High-street , Chatham , which ended in the entire destruction of the house occupied by Mr . Giles , an extensive fruit merchant . Not a vestige of the occupier ' s property or furniture mi saved ; and what adds to the misfortune is , that Mr . Giles had hitherto been the support of an aged mother , and a large family , who must now be dependent on others , as Mr . Giles was uninsured , and has consequently lost all that he possessed . The house belonged to Dr . Tapley , of Gravesend , aad is

      insured in the Sun fire ofiice . It appears that the fire must have originated in the shop , but from what cause is not known . Mr . Giles and his family were in bed when the fire was first discovered , and the alarm raised , and they had barely sufficient duio to make their escape from tho back part of the house . Tho neighbouricg residents have been C 0 I 1-siderable losers by tbe damage done to their IUluiture and stock in trade , in the hasiy reniuvai ui them from the scene of conflagration . The fire was not extinguished until eight o ' clock on Saturday morning .
