      TRIUMPH OF THE CHARTISTS . CRICHTON M'GILL AND THE NON-INTBTJS 1 ON 1 STS ROUTED AT DENNY . Tbe rebel party of the Church of Scotland , Mined BOn-lntaTiionlsfcs , efiered another signal < Wf * t , » t Denny , on Wednesday evening last On the Sunday previous , the Rev . Mr . Dempeter , of the parish of Denny , pompously announced from bis pulpit that a public meeting of the inhabitants of Denny would be held in hi * church , on Wednesday eveniag , to petition ¦ gainst patronage , and that Mr . Crichttjn M'QiD , a member of the aristocracy—a landed gentleman in Fife ¦ would honour the Inhabitants of Denny by addressing the meeting . . Daring the course of Monday , some

      uncertain rumonra went abroad through the town tkat tke Chartists were on tke qtri vise ; and to prevent the tjranny ^ this treuHesoine set of vagabonds , as they gra called , bills vspe issued of & peculiarly stupid phraseology , to thww , as it were ,, a sort of restriction orer the meeting , ye . t at the same time to make it appear public The meeting was called foe seven o ' clock , by wiaeh time a few dozens of the more stsp < d class of Tories , and the most fanatical mnvbers of Mr . Dampstert congregation , had assembled in the lower part-of ike church . There was aiw sprinkling of iKssenten . The galleries were < i « wded Witt ) « ror *» w , - « ritk their "mole-skin , jackets wid blistered ban * fc

      -A few -mtentes after Bereft , the gnat Mt , M'Gill -was cshered in , in company wrtfc the Reverend Jit . M « CuHoch , the Reverend Me . Bonner , the Rererend Mr . Begg , and tie Reverend Mr . Dempster , wboTeiycooUy walked is&o tbeefeair . The meeting towisg-Veen opened with prayer , Mr . M'Gill was introdnced , a » d commenced his harangue , which lasted aboetlw boors . It would indeed be a profitless task , to give men an outline of the heterogeneous niass of truth , fateehtod , nonsense , and sophistry , which was spouted ¦ forth iato the ears of the meeting by the big gun of the kirk . H » made a most lawyer-like attempt to gull the © iseeatera , and after enacting a piece of theatrical

      claptrap , about the induction < rf Mr . Edwards into the jjftRsh of M&ntoch , he intimated that a petition would be-read to the met ting , and concluded by a bombastieal exhortation for every one to sign it , from the beardless boy to tb « grey-headed man , that the Scottiih Zion asigbt be rescued £ rea ber perils , and ( rod ' s lifing grace spread amongst the people , &c , fcc ., &C On the « onelusion of Mr . ~ M * Gill " i oration , oae of the Rev . ^ ¦ nStenttemen on the Bench read a petition to Parliament against patronage , and-prxjiny for a repeal of the Act of ^ oeen Anne . The momentfUie petition was read , the Chaiimas rose to dose the meeting by prayer ; but , before be could utter a word .

      Mr . J . Jack , from Glasgow , rose and claimed the attention of the Chair , as he had some remarks to make « pon -tb ' e "lecture which had been delivered , and the . question of non-intrusion generally . Here commenced 4 etir . " The Rev . Gentlemen on the bench stared np to the g * DetT in tke utmost trepidation , while the fanatics below crowded together like frightened sheep . The Chairman intimated that Mr . Jack would be heard after the Wwsing was pronraneed ; but this would not go down with the meeting , who insisted that Mr . Jack SkibM . be beard . Mr . M'G' iU , seeing dismay pictured In the countenances ot his pirty , cot one of whom « cm 1 d open their months , except to howl and bray , stood up in their defence . He wished to speak to order , sad insisted Mr . Jack had no right to speak , he

      net being a parishioner . To this it was answered , that nether was he , Mr . M Gill , a reaienter in Denny parish . Mr . M'Gill affirmed that he hod been ia--ffted "by the minister , to which Mr . Jack replied , ttrst he had been also invited to attend the meeting , and by as good a man e as the minister . " Driven out of their position , ' it was next asserted that the meeting was not public ; but there being numbers present who heard Mr . Dempster mtounce the meeting as public from the public , this defence failed also . The next position taken up was , that n * resolution had been , or was intended to be , submit ted to the meeting . Mr . Jack replied that he intended to submit a resolution to the meeting , Mr . IL'J&Ul now became perfectly furious , and

      leap-Ing on the beach Beat commenced abusing Mr . Jack aad the Chutists like a . fist-vrife . Some of £ 1 * patty , with more strength of lungs than a&ength of judgment , commenced howling in the most vigorous and praiseworthy manner , to which the { flwTti « f « added an occasional cheer by way of chorus . Between vtezy lull in the storm ware beard broken sentence * from Mr . M' Gill , trbo stood all "the time on the beach seat with his coat buttoned , and bat cocked fiezcly oa the top of his head , stamping , and sputtering forth , 'foam- at the mouth , threatening law , ordering a constable to mark Mr , Jack , and uttering such sente&oas at , " poor boy—ignorant boy—go to school—go ^ soe to your mammy—impudent puppy—insolent intnmenirt—physical-force man—blackguard Chartists —^ ywanical vagabonds—low wretches— scum of society " —* ad xnanf-otbec- equally dignified and gentlemanly

      expressions , which showed Hat to be aLcnce & tro # fcppctaen of what his friend , Mr . Dempster , designated him , a member ol the aristocracy . Things continued in . ibis-stale for a considerable time ,, Mr . Jack occasionsdly getting an opportunity of- tbrowisg out a sentence OtVtWO , which again and again set Mr . M'&ill and the rest of the brutes wha supported him , howling like wakm . Jkt Uat &e gas was put out , and the meeting dispersed , the anti-patronage petition getting a few ¦ futures , while many who went with the intention of . signing , changed their mind when they saw the conduct of M'Gill and his brethren . . The Chartists wembted outside and cheered again and again for the . Clutter , and groaned for the Kon-Intrusionists , and the rebellions clergy of the church of Scotland . The assembly quietly dispersed , after resolving to bold a public meeting the following evening . —Scottish Patriot .

Saunders , London } Thomson , teacher , Kettle Bridge ; Crockatt , Martdnch ; Berwick , Fruchje ; and M'Leen , Beith , Ayrshire , known also as ^ " Moorland Minstrel . " The whole of the speeches , -were of the most patriotic , and soul stirring nature breathing forth the spirit of pore and Strata * iibe ityf M contained In tbe Charter . Tl » abuses and r corruptions of mlsgovemaifflit were laid ban in all thei '; naked deformity , and aome of the most conclasivr j and philosophical arguaienU brought forward in favoo , of Universal Suffrage we have ever heard . SetOwl of the speakers , particularly Mt . -Ctodcatt , dencmT JCed ^ e sh&meless oonduct of the elergjr fa ao

      measr ^ ed terms . He described the Established Cfcmreh « » gigantic system of legalised ecclesiastical robbery , nor were the voluntary clergy , be thought , much better ; for tbej were , in general , u determined eattniea ot tf-A rights and liberties of the pesple , and treated the « ana of labour , by whom they were supported , with as great contempt as the most aristocratic hlerarch . Such conduct he thought , on their part , was most unsufferable , as most of them were the sons of poor , hudworking men—nay , many of thenaerves had toiled at the loom or the workshop ; and to tuna round and treat the class from which they bad sprung with such superciliousness was moat abominable . Mr . Crockatt was » t times most enthusiastically applauded . Between

      the speeches , Mr , J . Halley gave us some of his most choice recitations , which Xe performed in bis usual felicitous manner : comic songs were also sung , in a nappy style , by Messrs . Grant , Frucbie , and Caaseilo , EetUa . Altogether , this was one of the most enthuliastlo aod ably conducted meetings . we have ever seen ; the company testifying no signs of impatience , though they sat upwards of four hours . At the conclusion , votes of thanks were awarded to the speakers , stewards , and to the Chairman , for his able conduct throughout the evening . Three cheers were then given for the Charter , three for Lovett and Collins , three for O'Connor and the imprisoned Chartists , and three for Frost , Williams , and Jones , when the company made way to join in the merry dance .

      CHARTISal IN DEtfyr . —PUBLIC MEETING . Is consequence of the disorderly conduct of the nunintrusio&ists of Benny , led on by the Fife Lairdie , MHJill Crichton , at the meeting in the Parish Chorea , < m Wednesday night , and to give greater effect to the Tictory obtained by the more orderly inhabitants , a public meeting was held on Thursday night , to take measures to reorganise the Universal Suffrage Association , and to hear a lecture frow Mr . J . Jack , from Gfesgov , on * Chartism and non-intrnsioa . Shortly after seven o ' clock , the H « . n -was crowded in every part , and tbe windows were opened for the benefit of those outside .

      Mr . Kiel Mcxro being called to the chair , said he vas very sorry their choice had fallen upon him , for although willing , in nuisy r&specu , to aid the cause of liberty , tie did not consider his abilities such as to entitle him to preside over that meeting . The occasion of tbeir meeting this evening waa to demonstrate their wish for their natural rights , aod to assist in the removal of their grievances in a legal and constitutional maaaflr . He trusted that no proceeding would take place such as had disgraced tbe meeting in the church oa tbe previous evening . That wm a meeting called far . Belf-inlerest , " for the Interest of a few to tbe exclasion of tbe majority—( cries of the blaci coa . t »>—bat -ttie present one embraced Vbe interest , the rights , and the liberties of alL The uon-intrusionists were afraid of discussion , while the Chartists courted it in tl » most open manner . He invited all to free discussion , and concluded by introducing Mr . Jack , from QlaBeow .

      Mr . Jack then rose , and was received -with much applause . He commenced firsi upon Chartism , developingits principles , its r ise and progress , the objects it had in view , and the evils to b * cared . After alluding to the other parties agitating the country , Mr . Jack took up the question of non-intrusion . He explained to the meeting wtut patronage was , and showed that the objects of the non-intrusioni 3 ts , if gained , ' would inertly transfer the patronage of the kirk from the crown and aristocracy , into the hands of the clergy theiuselvis . He next proceeded to expose the dishonesty of the nonintrosioiusta , the inconsistency of tberr professions , and thfiii reballiun against the laws of the country . In eondoiion , he pointed out UniTersa ! Suffrage , the birthright of man , as the primary-object to which tbe people ought to direct their attention , if they wished t » restore the .-ep ^ rting grestnes * of their country . The lecturer was repeatedly Interrupted by the applause of tl » meetiDg , and , on concluding , wait hailed with three cheers .
