      5 ot , Sir , nrstly , observe that although aimed at me , J nay "word in your speech were true it contains not fe Ksjhtest charge against me . If Frost said it , it firm no charge . If Frost thought it , it conjW bo charge against me ; but it dots contain a By mnvas charge against Mr . Frost , and to refute sc ( fcarge I stall presently apply myself . If Mr .

A great fool , if he believed it , to Jpi so far relied upon me to the last , as to refer & E&terJ relative to his trial to my judgment ; and i cat hypocrite , if he did not believe it , to have mix

      Ba eot , Sir , let me just make out your folly , so » i half fool may trace it to its source . Ton go & > pablie meeting on Tuesday evening ; you are Sat , for the first time , intr ^ iaied to a goverseji official ; he enters int » a very minute de-£ of frost ' s Xaeiings , actions , treatment , hopes , fibet , aad expectations , -with ypn in a first interitw . He trlls you all about walking upon the deck ; £ ibout his letters and messages ; but that is Kt enough—you wish to hear something more namitutul , and you ask , " Well , what did Frost Mlly « sy was his intention ? D . d he txpress any

      yw-vi u to his trial , or as to the noble manner in liaek the poor sabscrlb € > d for his defence ? Did he ¦ j cyihias o ; his coincil ? " ! So , no , not a word ; Jxdaes your official infjraiant once mention the name sf lejrcus 0 Connor . But he doe 3 Eay something about 1 MESSAGE TO MR LOYEIT , which message , as 1 natter of course , related to O'Connor , and tiki Mr .

      scruple in . saying , lhat Frost declared to the official , that he looked upon me as in the employ of government ; but , in the next breath , you « ay , that " Mr . Frost al \ rap $ supposed thai treachery * did not exist in man ' s bosom . " Well , then , admitting , which I do most fully , that Mr . Frost was , and is , possessed of a most manJy , generous , and confiding disposition , dont you think that such grounds for suspicion would niturally turn his confidence toliatred and distrust ? Now , mark my reasoning . Frost must be a fool or a hypocrite if he used the words , and , inasmuch as I sincerely believe Mr . Frost to be one of the most single-minded , honourable , deep-thinking , and generous men in existence , I prefer believing yon and your accomplices to be both fools and hypocrites , to believing Frost to be either the one or the other .

      Now , Sir , let me , for argument ' s sake , meet Mr . Frost ' s LOOKS by evidence , for you only say , that he LOOKED vpon me as being in the employ of Government I join issue , and plead not guilty , and defend myself thus . Is not one employed by another , firstly , paid for his services ; and , aecondly , expected to perform thoae services according to the instructions and for the advantage of his employers ? Firstly , then , I have never been paid for my services , except eighteen months incarceration in a felon ' s dungeon , in solitary confinement , is to be considered as part of my wages J the remainder to be made up in every species of government persecution , government insults , and newspaper intolerance .

      Secondly , was the employment of two of the most able counsel at the bar , both opposed te my employers ; both being Tories , and Queen ' s Counsel , and one the ex-Attorney-G * neral of the Tories , and , of course , most anxious to prove anything degrading to a Whig Government , at an cxpence of £ 1 , 000 , all advanced by me before a guinea was subscribed , likely to be of service , and to the advantage of my employers f Was it prudent to have instructed those able , powerful , and searching legal examiners to make my employers ' employment of spies a leading feature in their defence and to have sat for seven whole days at their elbow , not knowing the moment

      the cat may jump out of the bag , and the finger of scorn may point at me , and say , " Thou art the man ?"' Was it prudent , or justice to my employes , to have excited general disgust against them for my own act ? and were my employers likely to bear all my taunts calmly , without getting the employed , who made the bargain , to come forward and extinguish their greatest , most bitter , and most powerful foe fer ever , by proving Ms delinquency ? Was it fair for the employed to offer to prove a Gjvernment official guilty of perjury , and the Attorney-General of a perfect knowledge of the fact , provided he-, the Attorney-General , wouid undertake not to prosecute him . . the employed ) fjr libel ?

      Now , attend to me while I prove By assertion , that Frost , if he said so , was a fool or a hypocrite . If be believed it , he was a fool , and for this reason—because he confided in me beyond his counsel , and his solicitor , who was his . step-son , to the last I went to see Mr . Frost upon the night of my arrival at Munmouth , ami when we had embraced each other , I said , " Well , in Gad ' s name , what is all this absut ; what has brought you to this ?" " Why , your damned Chartiit friends , , and Dr . Taylor , " said Mr . Geach . " William , William , hold your tongue . " " Sir , did yon ever hear me mention Dr . Taylor ' s name ? " saidJJr . Frost . Mr . Geach—No ; bu ' , I know all about it

      Mr . Fbost—W ell , Sir . you do , you know more about it than I do , but dont meation Dr . Taylor—the dear gentleman never had a word of conversation , or a line of correspondence , with me upon the subject , in his life . Many subjects , relative to certain arrangement about the trial , were then discussed , when Mr . Frost confided in each and alVto my opinion and judgment , and thanked me , most heartily , but not for " being in the emplot of government . " Well , Sir , I -saw him upon the following night , when the legul point had been made in his favour bv his able counsel . I

      saw him in , company with bis counsel and Mr . Cr ; aeh , and let bis counsel s » j to whose opinion he appeared to lean , as to his condnct upon matters then proposed . Tpon the third night , I again-proceeded to his prison , bnt was told that there w ^ s an order from my employer , the Attorney General , not to admit me . Sir F . Pollock and Mr . Kelly , however , saw him , and , after their interview-, sent Mr . Geach to request an interview with me . At tfeat interview , which lasted till midnight , counsel were anxious -to receive all the information thty could , and Mr . Geach and I differed as to certain propositions , when Mr . Kelly said he wished to know -what Mr . O'Contor thought , as Mr . Frost appears to c-jiifide much in him

      Now , Sir , so much only 1 deem it prudent or necessary to communicate fob the present ; and give me leave to ask you whether Mr . Frost , the most confiding and isffectionate Losband in existence , was most likely to confide in a government official , or in the best and most affectionate wife ; and , to her , I beg to refer you fur hU opinion of me to the last , yea , after the la s * I will just give you one of scores of extracts of a similar character from a letter of Mrs . Frost , who , thank ( iod , knows justly how to appreciate my poor exertions on belulf of her husband ; she says : —

      "I have often and often listened te my dear hnsband speaking of you , and the great danger to which you subjected yourself . He used to say that you Were too generous , confiding , and go-d-natured ; but , my dear sir , you may thank your popularity and influence for the many jealous rivals with whom you have to contend -, when "was it otherwise with any person who fcincereiy wished ,. and hoaeitly endeavoured to serve the pour and really industrious . " This is one ol many . Djes that prove any suspiciuH . '

      Again , suppose , for argument ' s sake , that Mr . Frost believed it , what then ? Bat , suppose he said it , upon mere suspicion , to a Gorcrnmcnt ufficiikl , -what then ? Why , that you- would deprive Mr . Frost of every particle of pnWic sympathy , by charging him with one of the grossest , foulest , and most foolish acts of ingratitnde ever commitied by man ; for , be assured , that no man ' s suspicion , word , or even oath , will be taken by an fcnlighteneJ public , against good , plain , bold , unequivocal evidence .

      Perhaps , you may now ask why I contradict it ? My answer is , because 1 have , and ever will , meet every charge in its infai-cy ; because no public man ought either to consider himself above suspicion , or t * hold pabiic opinion so lowly as to pass it orer in con Uiiiptnous silence ; because the plot was inUnded as a nest-Lgg lor clhtrs to lay npoD , if I had not thus addled it , and destroyed your neEt ; because , in pnpzr time , it would be said , " O , you see , te never contradicted \ rhat Ridley qfered to prove , AS HE CONTBAKICTED EV £ KY OTHEB CHABGE , SO HE MUST BE GUILTY ; " and then would come Mr . Lovetfs verbal personal message , bo long and so ge . veiiocsl * WITHHELD TOR FEAR OF CREATING DISUNION .

      Now , Sir , it is said , that " no man can esrve two masters , " yet , am I obliged to serve three , and get nothing but- kicks for my pains . Tour Government official says that I serve Government , Government says that I serve the Tories , and the Tories say that I serve the people . Whose servant am I , then , that I may know to whom to look for my salary ? Just listen to one woTd . On Saturday last , the Star arrived , conveying your information , and upon the previous "day iFriday ) Mr . Barklev , a candidate for the

      representation of York , did me the honour to visit me . The first word I Baid was , " Well , Barkley , the ' FUSION ' did not take place , though I am in ffaoL " " Ho , no ; you have knocked lhat in the head , and so you ought i for 1 have long done xrith the Whigs , the people have nothing to expect from iliem , " said Mr . Bwkley . " Well , what's to be the next move ? " said I . " Why , they swear now that toc hate got £ 20 , 006 fbom the Tobies , and , O'Connor , they hate yon with a most rancourous hatred . "

      I answered , " Well , I regret to say that I have not yet received the £ 20 , 000 . " " My dear fellow , " Baid Barkley , you need not tell me ; but they would do anything to GET RID OF YOU . " " No , no , " said I , " but you misunderstand me , I wish them , both Whigs and Tories , to send me all the spare cash : tell them so ; and also assure them that I will never send back one rap of it , but that the next post shall carry it , just as it arrives , to James Leech , for the Executive Council of our illegal association , to help both Whigs and Tories , to the benefit of the only measure that can save them from perdition .

      What now have you to say ? and excuse me if I say that I think my position the most novel ever occupied by m * n ; paid by two parties ont of three , and serving th « s third who don't pay me at alL Well , but come , you shall have a dose of it now while my hand is in . Are the Whigs such fools as not to look to- the performance of their employed Bervanta ? and let us Bee what I could , or dfd , do for them . I never had a letter in my life from Mr . Frost , with the exception of one , about August , 1839 , inviting me to his house . I never wrote a letter to him . I was not in Monmouthshire for fifteen years before the occurrence . I never wrote a letter to a man in Wales . I

      never had a word of conversation with a Welshman . I never had a message from a Welshman . I never sent a message to a Welshman . I was not in England FBOM THE TIME THAT THE PROCESSION TO MONMOUTH WAS PROJECTED , UNTIL A FEW DATS BEFOBE IT TOOK PLACE . Now , what have yoa to say ? I will give you , or your official , or any other person or personB , a reward of £ 1 , 000 if you prove to the satisfaction of John Collins , Henry Hetherington , and William Lovett , or one of them , that I have ever in all my life been guilty of one Bingle act of deceit or treachtry to my party or my political foes . Now , what do you say ? They shall have every facility , and I will produce no witnesses , except your Government officials .

      1 last week tendered the elive branch : I have since learne . l that my act of grace has but emboldened tuo faction . I now challenge them ; as they would not fight with me , they shall fight against me openly ; I will have no " bush Jigkting ; " no " sharp shooting from ambuscdde ; " no half and half retractions and shooting of poisoned arrows from the unrelenting penitents . Thsy shall face me . I am now in possession of all . They have refused pcacr . 1 dechre war .

      One puling fool says , "If Feargus vexes me , I'll write a letter of condolence to Lovett . " Another says , " If my papers are stopped , I'll join the ' new move . " So row come on with your sectional battle ; I am ready for you all . The Hume , Collins , and O'Neil clique in Glasgow , Bristul , London , and everywhere , come on . I know you all . Cunie from your ambush , and fight me fair . I can boat you and the Whigs at the same time .

      I now tell you , Sir , in conclusion , that when I can get a House of Commons to grant me a committee , I undertake to prove that Frost ' s crime was having mentioned his determination to oppose Lord John Russell at Stroud ; that was His treason ;—and that the Government were the mere tools in the hands of the Newport officials , who had long vowed vengeance against Frost , as he was net to be bought or intimidated . For Vincent ' s liberty , Frost periled his life , and shbuld Vincent live for ever , his days will be too short to repay Frost and his family for their sufferings . Let

      Vincent then be instantly ordered , by the country , to proceed to Stroud , thereto marshall the public to meet Frost ' s oppressor upon the public hustings . Let the electors be taught to prefer a Tory , or a Djvil , to Frosi ' s noble oppressor , and let Vincent stand by the Noble Lord ' s side , and jtu : ify the acts of him who suffered to set the captive free , or better his condition-Let the Noble Tyrant hear tbe real verdict upon an appeal to the legitimate source of all power . Let him listen to the voice of truth and to the resolve of Englishmen . Frost never suffered for me , but this , if at large , 1 had determined to perform for my victim , and against ntr employer .

      1 shall now conclude by assuring you that I am to be purchased , and that Univtrial Suffrage is my price , and nothing less . That you may as well hope to turn the snn from its course , as to stop me , while living , iu my career . That I never did , nor ever will , receive place , pension , or emolument for any service which I can render to the people . That I would not be the means of conveying one sentence of a working nmn'e confidential communication to an enemy , to save my life . That I will neither be bullied off , frightened off bought off , or sopped uff Taat I will fight my way to the end .

      When poor Hunt left Aw dungeon , he looked with suspicion -upon every man . Thank God , I have created a mere enlightened public opinion ; and when I leave my dungeon , 1 shAll look upon every fustian jacket as a guardian angel , and upon every blistered hand as part of my armoury . Now , whether am I servant to the Whigs , or to the Tories , or to the cock-tails ? or am I to be Yonr obedient , very humble servant , Feargus O'Connor . York Castle , Felon ' s side , 20 th of I 3 fh month of receipt of salary for services rendered to ay employers .

      P . S . I have just received the following letter from Mrs . Frost Let the points which she makes , be C 9 mpared with the points which I have made ; and ask yourself if any two things can be more similar . I did not write for this letter , or write at all ; but I had a right to expect something of the kind , and you find that Mrs . Frost looks upon the matter as I do—as a base attack upon her absent husband . She says : — " 14 , Montpelier , Bristol , May 17 th , 1841 . "MY dear sir , —J see by trie norinern star and the Dispatch , that there is an attempt ; it another thrust at you . What is it fur ? Are your enemies maddened because they see that tbe people will not forsake you , and will do your bidding ?

      " I cannot help feeling disgusted at this last base attempt . How dreadfully yeur enemies must bs driven to their shifts , that they cannot get a person nearer home to malign your character . They would not dare charge my beloved husband with this slander , if he was at hand to meet it . He is not a likely person to tell his wife at one time that O'Connor was one of the most open-hearted and good natured men he ever met with—good natured to a fault—and dirt ctly after to tell a stranger that he was a traitor . No , no ; this in not John Frost's character . He never wrote fifty letters , and trusted them to any one ; if he ha > l , why should he tell me to remember him to all his friends , saying that he would not particularise any , fearing ho should forget some , and icc / und their feelings ; and why did he name Mr George Rogers ' s letter , and no other , if be

      had written fifry ? Mr . Rogers had his letter before had mine , and he sent it to me , fearing my letter would be detained . Whoever Mr . Ruffy Ridley is , I think he has acted very wrong , even if his motives were good , wh : ' ca I much doubt Of what use was his bringing it before that assembly ? You , Sir , know too much of public life to be at all affected by these things . You must know that the more honest and sincere a man is , as a Christian and a patriot , the more malignant his enemies are . They envy those virtues they are afraid to imitate . You have nothing to fear from them ; you have the mighty millions with you , and , I hope , tbe approval of your own heart , and that is enough . In cobclusian , I have only to say that if you are in the employ of the Government , they take a strange way of paying you your stUary .

      " I see , upon looking again ever this statement of Mr . Rufy Ridley , that Mr . Frost has not written that you are in tbe employ of Government , but had only spoken it . How easy it is to make a man say anything . Why did Mr . Ruffy Ridley ask about Mr . OConnob , more than any one else , and why was he in snch a hurry to cirry the slander to the Convention ? Why did he not begin with that part of his tale which bears honour to Feargus O C ' jnnor ? I am sick < f the base tramped ap tale , and must conclude with my own and daughters ' kind regards , and beg to subscribe myself , ' Faithfully , your obliged , " M . Fbost . "

      WORSBRO' COWMON .-The Chartists of this place wish to place on record their protest against the new move " and its concoctors , ( particularly Hetherington , ) and their unabatoi confidence in O'Connor and the Northern Star . KETT £ RIN 6 . —Th e new move has been soundly denounced here . Condemnatory resolutions were passed in the earlier part of the month , but inasmuch astneaddress had been signed by two Ktittering " leading Chartists , " it was thought right to hold a , meethifc , and discusB the subject in the presence of the said " leading Chartists , " giving them the opportunity of defending their conduct . This was done , and the resolution was confirmed , after hearing all that the "leading Chartists" had to say . An effort was afterwards made to vend the tickets of the * ' new move' * society , but not one could be Bold .

      WESTMINSTER . —Public Meeting at the LATE WESLEYAN CllAPEL , BrOAD-WAY , Mr . PtTkethly in the Chaib . —Mr . Pitkefchly opened the . uroceedmgB in an animated address , contrasting the conduct of the Whigs while in office , with their liberal pretentions when in opposition . Mr . Wheeler moved the adoption of the first resolution , " That this meeting deeply sympathise with the incarcerated political victims , and pledge themselves to support the Petitiou Convention in their laudable and humane exertions to procure their immediate liberation . " In moving this resolution , he was confident he should meet with their enthusiastic support . We must bo deficient , not only in patriotism , but in the common feelings of humanity , if we did not exert every nerre

      to procure their liberation—to restore them to those homes from which they bad been so cruelly , so tyrannically torn ; they had fallen victims to their endeavours to abolish the accursed system of class legislation , a system which had caused the very earth to grow rich—rich with tho blood of millions of her sons and her daughters who had died—died ere their time , through the wars and oppressions of a mind destroying , a soul-withering , privileged aristocracy Mr . Cuffcy seconded the resolution in a very humorous speech , and called upon the men of Westminster to destroy tho two factions , by knocking their heads together . Morgan Williams , from Wales , in supporting the resolution , entered at some length into the case of tho political prisoners ,

      showing the manner in which John hrost and his companions had been victimised , and called upon the men of London to renew their exertions , to trust no longer to men , but place their depeudenco upon principle ; to practice morality , goo'l government , and sobriety in thoir own homes , and no government would ever be able to kiep them in tyrannic subjection , and concluded by calling upon them , if they valued the blessings of the widows and the fatherless , if they possessed the feelings of humanity and justice , to show by their conduct , during the ensuing fortnight , that thev were determined to obtain the release of those wKo had fallen victims in their cause . Mr . Smart , from Leicester , had como from the centre of England , to arouse the men of London

      to assist them in tho granti undertaking . Surely there must be something wrong in the present system of society , which demanded such sacrificeswhich compelled him , a hard-working operative , to come to London , to ondeavour to compel the Government to do justice to tho people . There was an anecdote related of the first George , that upon his lauding in England , he told the people , in his imperfect English , That he was coma for all their goots , " and was answered by a wag in the crowd , " Aye , and for their chattels too . " It was not so with him ; he wa ^ como for their good ; but he wanted none of their chattels . He wa 3 proud to tell them of the part he played in the Nottingham election , and to point it out for their imitation . We ,

      the Chartists , were now acknowledged to bo a party of some influence in the Slate . We he'd the balance of power in our hands , and he trusted the men of Westminster would look wdl to theirrepresentativa-For himself he was determined , that if tho very Devil himself , with , sevon heads and ten horns , presented himself before him , he would vote for him in preference to a Whig , considering him to be more consistent—more of a gentleman . The resolution was then carried unanimously . Mr . Wilson moved tho frecoud resolution , " Thai this meeting pledge itself to renewed exertions in favour of the People ' s Charter , aud will never rest satisfied until it shall have become the law of the land . " He trusted that thf y would , in the words of the resolution he had

      just read , renew their exertionB in favour of the People ' s Charter . A glorious prospect was now beforo them ; they had only to rally manfully round the standard of freedom and success was certain . The good ship Charter had struck upon many shoals , had met with many disasters ; but now that wind and tide were in their favour , they must spread their sails totUe favouring breeze , and it would waft them to pleniy and happiness . Mr . Wilson concluded his eloq'K'Ut address amid universal acclamation . Mr . Walton seconded the resolutibn . by ably explaining the principles of the Charter . He was sure no ono in the meeting could raise a resonable objection against any siiigle point . He , therefor * , called upon them to follow out their conviotion , by joining the

      National Charter Association . It had been stated by the cowardly Whigs , that we were too ignorant co receive the Suffrage ; but he would tell them a bit of plain truth ; if we were too ignorant for the Suffrage , we were also too ignorant to understand their new humbug of the Corn aud Sugar Duties ; tho fact was , we were too enlightened for their purpose , they were afraid to trust animate matter with the S . ffrage , but would fain transfer it to inanimate bricks and mortar . Mr . Morgan , of Bristol , said tlioso who expected to hear & long or an eloquent sppecli would bo disappointed ; they might exclaim , what I a member of the Convention , and not a good speaker , impossible ; but he would tell them that his constituents had sent him to work and not to talk .

      Mr . Morgan then , in a humorous speech , detailed the result of the interviews he had had with Lord Palmerston , the members for Bristol , and other places , and concluded , by making an appeal on behalf of Mrs . Frost , with whom he was personally acquainted , and detailing the insults and injuries she had received from professing Christians in Bristol , where she now resided . The Chairman then put tho resolution , which was carried unanimously . Mr . Wheeler moved the third resolution . " That a deputation be appointed to wait on Mr . J . Temple Leader and Sir George Lacey Evans , calling upon them to support the foregoing , resolutions , by their votes in Parliament ; " seconded by Mr . Tredwill . Mr . Skevinuton , from Loughborough , most cordially

      supported the resolution . He trusted that the men of Westminster would look well to their members ; he was one of tho actors in the Nottingham election ; much cant was used by the press on this question . He had been told that it the Tories got in power , the reign of tyranny and persecution would commence ; but he defied them to show that the'Tories had ever acted totv .-irds political prisoners in the brutal manuer the Wing 3 had done ; they had encouraged the people to break the laws , to refuse to pay taxes , &c , when it suited their selfish purpose ; but no sooner were they in power , than they turned round , imprisoned the people for merely following , and that too , at a humble distance , the example set them by the liberty-loving Whigs . The Tories would long , ere this , have taken office ; but as Sir Robert Peel confessed , they were useful out of office ; if they were in power , they would be compelled , spite of themselves , to pass liberal measures : but which now ,

      by their opposition , they could crush ; as long as the people were content to be led by either of the factions , the Whigs were gratified arid tho Tories satisfied ; but he trusted the men of Westminster would follow the good example that was B 6 t them at Nottingham and Sandwich , and destroy the one faction by the aid of the other . Tho men of Leicester were determined upon tho election of Feargus O'Connor—( immense cheering ) ,- or at any rate to turn out the Whigs ; he could not at that late hour eater into further particulars , but he was commissioned , by tho men of tho provinces , to tell them that , if there was to ba no plenty , no happiness in the cottage , ihey were determined there should be no peace , no security in the mansion or the p ' ulace . Mr . Ridley , M . C , supported the resolution in an animated address , and ably descanted ou the profligacy and partiality of the Whig Government , as exemplified in the case of Cardigan , Waldegrave , Dnff , Koane , and others . The Chairman then addressed the

      meeting in a neat practical speech , stating his reasons for adopting the line of conduct he pursued at Nottingham . He took the hazard upon himself at the risk of being called a traitor to the cause ; but he wa 3 happy to find that his conduct had been approved by the country ; an open foe was better than a deceitful friend . The conduct of the Whig-Radical members waa a great injury to our cause ; by their half measures of reform , they deceived and deluded the peoplo , splitting them into sections and parties , thereby aiding ministers iu carrying their Poor Law and Rural Police Bills . He threw out a suggestion that the men of London should walk in procession the daj ( the petition was presented ; if it was carried out with spirit he thought it would be of great assistance ; but he left it to the men of London , as being the best judges of the practicability of i t . The meeting conoluded with the usual honours to the Star .

      LEEDS . —At a weekly meeting of the Association on Monday night , the quarterly report was submitted to the members . It gave a very cheering account of the progress the Association has made ; during the three months its numbers have been very much augmented ; it concluded with this very gratifying intelligence , that the Association was in a very prosperous condition ; its members had begun to feel the importance of their object , and redoubled exertions were the result . We would say , Go forward iu your noble cause , and soon will the tyrants' power shake before such determined spirits . After the report was read , three friends addressed the meeting in glowing and eloquent terms ; Mr . O'Connor ' s letter of last week W 9 S touched upon , and strongly recommended

      as one , if carried out into practice by all the Chartists , that would be the most effectual way of obtaining the Charter . It was shown that the tradesmen have very erroneous ideas as to the power and worth of the working classes . They think that they depend upon the higher classes of society ; this is a general opinion amongst them ; they think nothing of a working man ' s penny , but whetLa carriage happens to stop at their door , even for the smallest trifle . wr > see them all attention , and ready to do everything which is commanded cf them . In tact , as Brougham once said , and he said very truly , " they are the most cringing race that people this earth , " and to a set of persons who bring no benefit at all to them . It was said further , that this state of things wants

      altering , the middle classes want convincing , and that by the most convincing of arguments—an empty till , that they depend upon the working classes ; it was shown that nothing was so likely as exclusive dealing , recommended byO'Conuor , and the members were called upon to support no one but who would support them in their struggle for their rights . Only let the Chartists see this in its proper light and act upon it , the Charter will not be long before it is the law of the laud . The Chartists have tho power , let them wield it iu this manner , aud down falls the tyranny of the middle classes . —On Monday night , the propriety or impropriety of starting two Chartist caudiiiates for Leeds , at the expected election , will be taken into consideration . Ciiartists attend to this .

      TI ^ TWISTLE . —Mr . Butterworth lectured here on the 15 th , and gave great satisfaction to a crowded audience . CHESTER . —A meeting was held last night ( Monday ; , in this truly priest-ridden town , to petition Parliament for the " free pardon of all incarcerated Chartists , " aud also that the" Charter become tho law of tho laud . " We could get neither bill-sticker nor bellman that dare undertake to post our bills or cry our meeting . Messrs . W . Speed and John Burkhill posted the town with bills , amidst the smiles and scorn of this old city . One working mau said , while we were posting a bill on the Maypole , Handbridge , " He would sign a petition to hang us all . " At seven o'clock the meeting commenced , and was very numerously attended . Mr . John Vaughan

      spoke for two hours and a half with a wonderful effect . At the close of the meeting , ninety-five signed the petition . A gentleman of tho name of E . V . Parey , at . the close of the meeting , stood up to oppose what our speaker had advanced . He made a miserable attempt indeed . At length he said his time was short , shewing he wished to make his escape , but he was stopped by the groans and waggish remarks of the meeting . At all events , we never expect to see his honor there again , neither will ho soon forget the reception ho met With . Upon the whole , Chartism is going on very well in Chester . Priestcraft is on the totter ; the workies are beginning to think for themselves , so that our prospects look cheerful . A Chartist sermon was announced to be preached to night ( Tuesday ) by a Mr . Chalinor .

      DUBLIN . —The Chartor Association held their usual weekly meeting , on Sunday the 15 : h instant , Mr . Rafter in tho chair . The meeting was addressed by Messrs . Brophy and Dillon in support of the Charter . Tho subject of the " new raovo" was discussed , and the following resolution was passed : — " That while we deplore that anything should cause a division in the Cnartist camp , we cannot but censure the concoctors of any measure short of the Charter . " Several new members were enrolled . A communication from-Mr . Rigby , of Chorley , was read , which elicited the approbation of all present . Chartism is uow sure of success in Dublin . The obbat Refohsj Mektj . vg , held at tho Exchange , on Friday , was a complete failure ; there were not two hundred persons present , and there were more of the working classes than of the respectables .

      DAISY HILL , ( Near Bradford . )—The following resolution was unanimously passad here ,, at the usual meeting on Sunday : — "That we , the Chartists of Daisy Hill are highly satisfied with the proceeding of the Petition Convention , and we pledge ourselves to use our utmost exertions in obtaining money towards its further support should us sittings continue another fortnight . " NOTTINGHAM . —At a meeting of t ' ne Chartists held last night , the following resolutions were agred to . " That this meeting highly appreciate the important services rendered by the Convention to the cause of freedom ; and further to use their strenuous efforts to raise means to pay the members so long as their continuance be found necessary . " " That a letter be sent to the Convention and the Northern Star , to say we approve of their sitting in London a fortnight longer . " " That notice ba given by the Council to the various news rooms of our determination to support the Convention . "

      The following resolution was unanimously passed at a meeting of Chartists held at the King George on Horseback , "That a vote of thanks is due and is given to the Convention now sittiug in London , for their zealous conduct in the cause in which they are engaged , and we recommend that the Convention sit a fortnight longer , in order that they may complete the business ; and we will render them all the pecuniary aid in our power . " BIRMINGHAM . —The Dying Stbuggle of Whiggery . —Although the Whigs have granted a Charter of incorporation to the Town of Birmingham , in consideration of the eminent services rendered them by some of tho leading Members of the same , by endeavouring to upset the "National Convention , "

      yet the Government will find that they have got a " sorry bargain , " and that their allies in the far famed * Brummagem' are eo many rotten sticks ; as witness the folio wing account : —We are told by the Journal of Saturday last , that a meeting was held on the Wednesday previous . That the meeting was called by Circular * and that several leading merchants attended the same . This " Hole and Corner " affair occupies two columns of the immaculate Journa / , ¦ whilst a public meeting which was numerously attended ( from which the editor of the Journal and the other Whig props , had to make a hasty retreat , and at which a resolution in favour of the " People ' s Charter" was carried unanimously , ) waa thrust into a corner , and occupied some four or five lines .

      NOW FOR ANOTHER IKSTAKCK Or ^ WHlO AND SHAlt Radical Pophlajutt !—A meeting of » bose lavoarable to a repeal of the Corn Laws , was called bj circular , to be held at the New Inn , Brwisgroveetreet , at eight o ' clock on Friday eveuiug iast . Tho thing was , of course , to be kept snug , an . ) none bnt friends were expected . Ajt th ' e appointed time Messrs . White , Taylor , and Green , made their appearance , and found two persons in the room , one of whom proved to be Mr . Gameaon , the person who called the meeting . The other was above six . foot of ofLiunet

      mortalityj rejoicing in th& name ( a green one , by the byo > . In about half an hour after , Alderman Weston , Councillor Rodway , Messrs . Palmer , Lowe , and three others made their appearance . This was the sum total of persons who attended the meeting . After a little whispering wiin Messra , Weston and Rodway—Mr " . Gameson arose and de * clared that he had taken upon himself the great responsibility of calling the meeting . H « then read a copy of the circular , and moved that Mr . Palmer should take the chair ; this being seconded , Mr . Palmer , after a little delicate reluctance , was duly installed . Mr . Dean Taylor , rose to address th © meeting , but was interrupted by Mr . Councillor Rodway , who protested against any person

      addressing the meeting unless he had received a circular Mr . Alderman Weston moved that any person should be allowed to address the meeting who conducted himself properly . He said that he was very sorry he could not attend the meeting which had bet n held on the previous Monday at the Green Man , in t ) oriteud , as ho understood tljat some excellent ^ piechea had been delivered by the Chartists . ' However the same parties were then in attendance , and hp hoped they would be permitted to state their views of the subject for which they had met . Mr . George White stated that he should state what he thought proper , without asking leave of any person present . Alderman Weston then arose and begged leave to withdraw his motion . He did so because it appeared

      that Mr . White was determined to bully them . Mr . Lowe moved that no person should be permitted to speak except those who had received circulars . If they did net do so , they ' would be choused cut of their meeting in the same manner as tho people of Deritend , as they were' not able to make speeches so well as the party opposed to them . Mr . Councillor Rodway seconded the motion . Mr . White reiterated his determination to take no notice of their vctea . It was a paltry affair , altogether unworthy of notice . If they wanted to have a -private meeting th « y had better go to one of their own houses , as it was a very small room that would not hold eight or nine people . He should not be guided by any yole they cunw to After a little further discussion it was agreed thai all parties present might remain , provided ihey did not interrupt the proceedings . A motion was afterwards carried "That areouisitioH should be presented

      to the Alderman of ihe ward , requesting him to call a ward meeting to consider what steps should be taken relative to a Repeal of the Corn Law * " Mr . Wesson communicated to the meeting that it was the intention of parties opposed to the present system of Corn Laws , to call a meeting at the Town-hall , to consider the question ; but tiiat if any . person at tended for the purpose of creating a disturbance , tht \ would be removed , as it was determined that i \ : c question should be either an affirmative or negative out : ou the Corn Law question . Mr . White an > wci \ d that , if such was the case , ho would advise them t < : turn any man out of the meeting who expressed a word more than the following sentence : " We want a . U . peal of the Corn Laws . " A discussion then tuv > k place between Messrs . Weston , Taylor , Green , a tic K nlway after which this demonstration of Whig t-lrt'tigth evaporated .

      Another Dose for the Whigs—Finding that there is no earthly chance for them in the large towns , the " League" or " Plague , " las Mr . O'Connor justly terms them , ) are betaking themselves to the villages . They accordingly announced a meeting to take place ou Monday evening last , at _ a village called Sinetiiwick , three miles from Birmingham , where they calculated upon having no opposition . But they were woefully disappointed , for a few good men and true attended a > the Chartist meeting room Freeman-street , on Sunday , requesting the assistance of a few speakers from the Chartist " Depct'Vat B rininghaoi ; their request was cordially responded to , and Messrs . Taylor an-1 Green were deputed . Th ? y were accompanied by Me-srs . Ban-act , O'A eil t Benjamin Hill , and others , who completely overthrew the Taetion , exposed iheir villany , ami carried a resolution in favour of the People ' s Charter .

      Chartist Mettiko . —The members of tho National Charter Association , held their usual weekly meeting on Monday evening last , at the Chartist meeting room , Freeman-street , when a lecture was delivered by Mr . George White , on the bright prospects of the ultimate succoss of Chartist principles . The meeting was well attended , and promises to do much good . Ano-iier room has been opened in Dartmoulh-tffcreefc , for the purpose of lecturing , and promises well . The lectures are delivered every Tuesday evening . STIRLING . —A public meeting of the inhabitants ami electors of Stirling was held on Tuesday , the lhh instant , iu tho Court House , to petition Parliament for a repeal of the Corn Laws . Not long after the hour Mwcifiod . for" meeting , the place was

      crowded to excess . It being expected tuat the Chartists would attend , and , as usual , propose their amendment for the People ' s Charter , there was a pretty good muster ol the middle classes . There wero to bo seen the well-fed , well-clothed repeal gentry , with their florid countenances and rotund bellies , affording a striking contrast to the sallow complexion and lauk visages of tho sycophantic weavers , &c , assembled to hiss , howl , or vore " jist tae plase the mister . " Bailie Smith , oa taking the ohair , said ho hoped anything like uproar or confusion wouid be avoided , so as to give to every one a fair and impartial hearing . Resolutions , condemnatory of the existing Corn Laws , approving ci the announcement made by her Majesty ' s Ministers , for

      considering and altering those laws , and petitions to both Houses of Parliament , founded ou those resolutions , were separately submitted to the meeting , prefaced by their respective movers with the usual arguments of depressed trade , lownoss of wanes , scarcity of provisions , and descanting most sympathisiugiy on the misery and distress that prevails among the working classes , chiefly to be attributed to the existence of this obnoxious law . Mr . M'Intyre then addressed the meeting ia favour of the Charter ; after which , Mr . Yonl moved an amendment to the effect , " That we have ceased to repose confidence in- the men composing the Whig Government , believing that no beneficial nuvasure cin be obtained from Parliament as it is at present

      constituted ; consequently , preter atMatiiig until every man who is twenty-one years of age , of sane mind , and uucouvicted ot crime , has a vote in the choice of his representative . " Mr . W . Smith seconded the amendment in a good speech , shewing the perfidiousness and insincere professions of the middle classes ; and'Mr . Jenkins , jun . supported it in an excellent address . The Chairman then took a show of hands for the resolutions and tho -amendment , and he declared tbe former to be carried by a majority . The Chartists protested against , thia decision , proposing to divide the house , so as a proper

      understanding might bo arrived at ; alleging that they had not the majority in reality , it was only in appearance , caused by tho repealers starting to their feet , waving their hats , and some of them holding up both hands . The Chairman ref « -.. « d to divide , and dissolved the meeting amidst iisucii uproar and confusiou . On the Chartists givintc three cheers successively for the Charter and Feargus O'Connor , the Chairman proposed three cheers for the Q ' . ie ? n , which were heartily responded to by the cliquo of repealers , showingmost unequivocally how nearly they were allied to oppression and corruption j but it was only met with jeors and derision from the democratic portion of the meeting .

      CRIEFF . Anti-Corn Law humbug . —Last-Kick OF WlIIGGERY ., AIDED BV BLUDGEON AlE , V . ~ - One of the > nost dnring and disgraceful insults ever attempted to be imposed on the inhabitants of Crieff , was last Wednesday evening witnessed here . The hour of meeting was nine o ' clock , when a great number assembled . The Whigs made their appearance with a number of bludgeon , men to back their proceedings . Play commenced by placing a character of the name of lonie , very unpopular among the inhabitants of Crieff , in tbe chair . The Chairman said , you all know what the meeting is about , and then read a few resolutions amidst a burst of derisive laughter . After & few

      quibbles about who the petition should be sent to ; the Chairman told us the business of the meeting was over ; this was followed by a tremendous peal of laughter and hisa' 8 : the Whigs saw they had no confidence in the meeting , and scarcely faced the inhabitants fourteen minutes , after the doors were opened . The Chartist * then called for another Ch&iruian ; the Whiga he-came alarmed , when one of their number , proud to be clad in a little authority , called out , " Ye must dismiss , or ye will be immured in Fox Maule ' s Penitentiary : " thia was followed by another peal of laughter . Mr . Jamea M'Ainsh then- * aid , this is a sample of Whig coercion ; wken the bludgeon men made a seizure on him , and dragged him to the door in a disgraceful manner ; the meeting rushing to hia rescue , he begged them to keep order , as what they -wanted was a disturbance . The meeting gave three groans for ¦ *• the base , bloody , and brutal Whigs , " who immured the Chartists

      of England in dungeons , ana tuen auperaa . We sup . pose this to be tho last report of a Whig meeting yon will be troubled with from Crieff . Verily , the Ministers have not gained a laurel to their cause from their Crieff friends . Chartism is still progressing here . We were lately -visited by Mr .
