Ite question of the Repeal of the Union holds , tad ever has held , in my estimation , the precedence « f » I 1 other Irish questions ; sad therefore do I fcel mpetf jossificd ia acooamlnx for say silence yd the silence of the Northern Star upon the postim recently takes up by Mr . Crawford upon the safcjeet . In the first place , then , I hold , it to be both wise tad fair to wait until Mr . Crawford ' s whole ease shall hare bees made out and submitted , la the second place , the demand upon the columns of the Star is so great , that the required portion eonld not be given up for Mr . Crawford ' s letters » d Mr . Baunt ' e replies ; aai the Editor considers
ftat it would be ujjust te gyre one without the dtbtt . Is the third place , daring my tour in Sedtl&ad , I had not leisure to notice Mr . Crawford ' B letters ; and- ia my opinion , from the ignor naee -which preratls throughout England and Scotland , upon the subject of the Repeal of the Union ,-ike publication without note or comment of tire fiiee and untenable positions , the stretched Mitioipations , the laehryt&ore forebodings , * nd bwadirg conclusions of Mr . Crawford , forced spon the fa-rourable eo&sideration of many , Tery ¦ any , by the just estimation in * which the writer it held by ill for his political integrity and Boral worth , would hare ensured for them a Talue to which 1 hope to proTe they are net entitled .
Yes , my countrymen , I undertake to prove that Mr . Crawford has fallen into that error which has tabled Mr . O'Connell to consign so many good and ioaest men to oblivion or to death . He has allowed fcis hostility to the meaas nsed for the attainment f Repeal to irarp his judgment , and lead his attention firam the consideration of the principle ; whereas to duty , as an Irishman , was to have eodearonred t » combat the eril means , whieh might have been dated without inflicting damage upon the principle . "Hese letters , if nu » fairly mes and critically exwsed , would be pre-eminently calmlatfn ^ xe
endan-SS the cause of Repeal ; and therefore I ask but for a abort pause before my country shall have been eoagned to perpetual bondage . I undertake to jwre that the effect of Mr . Crawford ' s federal union , would be to create the Tery feuds , contention a&d strifes , which he anticipates from an independent legislation . I undert ake to prove , that his system would create a vast amount of goTernment patronage , -mtboot returning one angle advantage to Ireland . I undertake to prove , that his system would gire birth to a huge national corporation in Ireland , which would represent the Protestant
interest in its corporate capacity at home , while it mrcld compose the working machinery for repre-BH&Bg itself in the Imperial Parliament . 1 undertake to proTe that an Irish Parliament , under a British administration , would be a curse , and would cable the British ministers of the day to do as all Boosa ministers since the Union have done , —to insure his Irish majority by the wages of enruption paid in Irish Catholic blood . I undertake to proTe thai Mr . Crawford ' s hope from epal representation even with Universal Suffrage ; —{ but cbserTe , he speaks throughous of the present
todwd of franchise)—so far Irom rsliering Ireked , would considerably increase sod moJtipIy her difficulties and persecutions ; while the increased anmber of Irish representatives in an English Parlis&e&i , would but increase the number of Irish bsD ^ Ereats on the British s tag © , without giving , to wi « is called the Liberal party any accession of power . In short it would but serve to expose our wairy ' s dissentions the more and more , while it would more than double the injustice and injury of absenteeism . I undertake to prove that the amount tf public opinion which would insure the success of
Mi . Crawford ' s plan , would insure a repeal of the ttfenn ! "Onion , and grant to Ireland an iapendent Parliament . I undertake to prorfc tks the dreaded influence of Mr . O'Connell * ocLi bfl a reality in the federal assenj"b ] y , while if fretiossl x used in aa Iri 3 h Parliament it would er eai Ma at onoe . I undertake to " pfoTO , that co tocntry can be justly governed whose representatfres compose but a minority of a representative bodj haying more extensive and district functions to ( nkharge than those which affect the interest of &s SHttBer state . And I further undertake to prove , thataafioj UjiInproTejnent-3 iE j . OIEpatJbiewithforeign

* obkvion , wken compcTed with qneatton •* ffta % afec ^ ng Irebuid ' s freedom , and my oonntry ' s hfima mm tell jn why aad wherefore I attach great importance to Mr . Crawford ' s lettew at any time , but sore eepeciallf at the present moment . firstly , then , I find that Buy wbo , like myself , have . been disguEted with the » eaBa used for the-aoottnipliahment of a Repeal of the Unjon , rea * oa erKmeooBly upon titoee lettatB , ; making the ' oensare of Mr . CCoonell ' a geoseal conduet upon the SBbjeet ef jnstiSoatloo , for their detettionor lukewarmnesa . No man has goneforther than your humble servant in expoeing and
denouncing the meanderinga and windings « f Mr . O'Connell in his SerioiiB path ; jet hare I » t all timea , in the mldfit of torrents of abuse from those calling them * selvee Repealers , adhered firmly to the principle ; aad , while I weald allow every man toll right for . the free expression of his opinion , I claim the privilege of declaring on my part my extreme astonishment at the approval ot M » i G * MOttfci >' a kttga , bf asf man . professing himself a Repealer In fact , they f uraiah an easy escape to those who would gladly seizfi npon _ the advent of Tory domination as a fitting opportunity for the abandonment of Ireland ' s cause . Many will now desert the Btandard , whose patriotiBm it would have been death to doubt , when the practice of sopping-off was resorted U > as a means of conversion .
Airain , my countrymen , the letters of Mr . Crawford are peculiarly inanspieumB at tbe yrewut moment , becaoae we are engaged now in as imperial straggle . We are sow about to petition for the Charter and a Repeal of the Union ; aad some men , with old women ' s nerves , have already begun to question the policy ; aye , the policy , of p »' ytny np the two questions , and Mr . Crawford ' s letters , if not met , would increase this weakness . But what will you say when I prove , as I undertake to do , that
even the Charter , the whole Charter , would be an inadequate measure of justice fox Ireland , if not aecompanied by a Repeal of the Union * 1 ' say aecompanied by , as England and Ire * land must have justice at one and the tame moment , and out of the samk aqixahon . I feel assured that Mr . Crawford fully feels the necessity of his Own pULQ ^ atid the insufficiency of the plan now ini process of agitation ; and , therefore , I shall deal with him as a friend , who , in my opinion , has gone astray .
for the present I would recommend all those who have rea < i Mr . Crawford ' s letters to read Mr . Daunt ' b replies to Nos . 1 and 2 . I have only seen those two numbers , which I recommend , especially the latter , to the serions reflection of every man . It has relieved me of much of the bush-firing and detail squabbling . He answers every one of Mr . Crawford ' s forebodings about colonial and do * mestie policy , commercial reciprocity , and separate interests , in a most masterly manner ; and , as much weight is very properlj attached to Mr , Crawford ' s unblemished and honourable character ; gire me leave to say tkat no man can boast of a more unblemished character than can Mr . Daunt .
I have known him from infancy ; and I believe that a more sincere Repealer , or a man of more anblemished character breathes nos . I have thought it more the necessary to say so much in consequence of the eomtpter channels into which the defence of poor Ireland had fallen . My beloved countrymen , having said so much upon the subject of Mr . Crawford ' s letters , I have but Bmall space to direct your attention to our present position . The Tories are now in power . The Irish liberal members instead Gf meeting them as the English Chartists met them upon the rerj threshold of office , left them an unopposed field . In fact , they ran away , while Crawford , Dnncombe , and the
brave thirty nine , and Fielden and the brate fortytwo were disputing the grouud inch by inch . Had the Irish Liberals stood by us , Crawford would have had more than 160 votes for the Charter , while Relden ' s motion for stopping the supplies would have had a tremendous influence all over the world . In this state of things we can have no hope for any improvement in our country except through the agency of English agitation ; and now that wo are upon the eve of procuring four millions of British ugnatuiea for the enforcement of Irish JuBtice , we find that the denunciation of that force upon which Ireland must rely , increases in the exact proportion in which a better understanding between the
working people of both countries increases . I re ] y upon the judgement , tha candour , and the patriotism of ihe Irish in England , to see through and to dissipate this mist , whicu has bo long obscured our vision . You are told to huve nothing to do with the " Torch and dagger Ch ; u \ is £ s . " Good God 1 did you ever hear such nonsense ! What ! have nothing to do with the only force upon which you can safely rely for succour and support 1 Now , my countrymen , thank God that I have lived to receive the first fruits of compensation for the uDJust and ungenerous abuse of which , for nearly
nine years , I have been the victim . It is now more than seven weeks since a deputation of my coiaitryinen waited upon- _ n » at Eceles , to request that I would cease to denounce Mr . O'Connell ; and that the result would be a junction of English Chartists and Irish Repealers . Well , I diu pledge mjscif , and from that moment to the present , I have abstained from the mention of his name , while I still constitute the stock-in-trade cf the Royal Loyal's abuse . Well , I can afford to bear it so long as I continue to increase in my countrymen ' s affections .
In conclusion , dear Irishmen , I thank you ; and in return for your support , rely upon the unremitting , untiring , and unflinching support which one humble Irishman can briDg to bear npon his connirys cause . I have long struggled for our country , and will continue to brave abuse and danger , resolved to see Ireland free , or to sacrifice comfort , ease , futuTe I health , or life , if necessary , in the establishment of ! lay country ' s freedom . j Ever your sincere i And affectionate countryman , Fkasgcs O'Connor . ;

, TO THE CHARTISTS OF SCOTLAND . Mr vzbi dear Fkukds , —Af ' . er the kindly reception and support with which I was honoured by you on my recent tour , I think I may assume , without vanity , that in Scotland the democratic principle is in the ascendant , and that my exertions to make it so have been duly appreciated by the Scotch . Never in the course of my incessant agiiation was I so amply rewarded for all my labours , as I have been during the month of my sojourn in the land of cakes ; and therefore to one and all I return no cold and formal acknowledgments , bat my wannest Irish gratitude and thanks . Yes , for although yon were labouring for yourselves , yet it must be pleasing and gratifying to me to he acknowledged as a realonS fellow workman .
My friends , of the foul conspiracy which , with your assistance , I was enabled bo triumphantly to meet , to combat , and to overthrow , I shall say but little ; as many of you have already Been those documents now in my po = session , which establish beyond doubt , its origin , its objects , and its means of accomplishment .

You will not have forgotten my prephecy relative to Church Chartism , Knowledge Chartisitt , « nd Teetotal Chartism ; and that I was not a false prophet may be inferred from the appeal of Brewster to the total abstainers , as also from the sneaking and cowardly manner in whieh the Chartist Synod of Glasgow sought to use ihe poor blunt tiling as an instrument for my destruction * Bat here allow me to discriminate between the shepherds and the flocks , between the committee and the body of teetotallers . In Glasgow , a knot of unemployed Methodists have endeavoured to oonstitate
themselves into a kind of Chartist Presbytery ; aad actually had the insolence and presnmptHm to threaten Mr . Thompson , the able and virtuous teacher and pastor ot Greenock , with suspension ,, for not having his credentials from the Synod of Glasgow . It was their intention to have mado Brewster the Hfgh Priest or Bishop of the body , had his bye-play with the rulers of his own church succeeded in rousing a great-national sympathy in his favour . But it is impossible to serve two masters ; and Brewster was too cunning to throw out the dirty State Church notion until he had insured a large draught at the Charter Church opening . That the flock have not been deluded by the shepherd , however , let Thursday night , the 24 th of October . 1841 , prove ; while the
fact that the preachers of Glasgow Form an exception to those of the rest of Scotland is fully established . At Greenock , Mr . Thompson ; at the Vale of Leven , Mr . Thompson ; in Edinburgh , Mr . Lowery ; at Dundee , John Duncan ; at Arbroath , Abraham Duncan ; and , though last , not least , at Kilbarehan , John Wallace M'Crae . I have added Wallace to his name myself , as James Moir says he always reminds him of what Wallace ' s appeals most have bees to Scotchmen . How , these six good men are all Chartist preachers ; but they preach not exclusive Chartist theology , and the result of their teaching and preaching is , that their districts are the best united in Scotland , while they are uniyer-Bfclly belofed by their own order , and respected , though hated , by both Whigs and Tories .
This conspiracy of Brcwster ' s has been long fn embryo , and many who have secretly cherished a hope of its success , have yet to make atonement or bear exposure . What think you of the consistency and courage of Brewster , who , in the same breath , on the sight of the 24 th , said ,. " No rJ don ' t charge Mr . O'Connor with being a false man ; I believe him to be a true man , and a good man , but a , misguided man "; and in a moment after , when he found that blarney was no go , he blustered out , " Well , then , I ahkxign him as a traitor I " Was there not much clerical finesse iu the words " well them . " Did he not mean , I will dress the dish to your palate if I can ; and if not , I will at all eventB , appear to die game . Having said go
much of the Chartist parsons and the flocks , let us now turn for a moment to the Teetotal abstainers and their Committees . It was to the COMMITTEES of the TOTAL ABSTAINERS , and to the Teetotallers that the wily Churchman made his appeal for means to get bid or Feaegvs O'Conaob . But to the honour of even the Committees , they In most instances answered his appeal by rendin ? addresses as far as fifteen and evea twenty miles from their bodies to be presented to me . Thus have I proved myself a true prophet as to the use which wily knaves would endeavour to make of Church Chartism and Teetotal Chartism , whila the knaves themselves have been frustrated ia their desire to use an unripe fruit .
My friends , you will best recognise the value of our triumph over Brewster in the fact , thai the Whig press taking his lying representations of the Paisley meeting as truth , are full of exultation ; while no : a word of the Dumfries , Aberdeen , and Glasgow drubbings has defiled their columns . No , no , that is not the fitting food for the organs of faction . Ibave much to say and little space to say it just now ; therefore , I must ran from subject to subject , and my next shall be the coming Scottish Convention . By all means I trust that the fustian jackets will attach doe and sufficient importance to the election
of delegates , and will not allow the nation to be insulted by a state priest occupying all the time allowed for discussion in the abuse of better men than himself . I mean the abuse of such men as John M ' Crea and Mr . Melville , of Markincb , and others ; and I further hope and trust that no more Halley ' s will be sant to watch the National Petitiou ia ha presentation . Indeed , the election of delegates to the forthcoming Convention , is for England and Scotland , matter of the very deepest import . If one ault more than another injured us in our first endeavour , it was the careless and nnguarded manner
m ? r men meetings allowed Mr . this , Mr . that , and Mx . the other to nominate delegates without a moment ' s previous notice ; and believe me now , that a lot of chaps , who like Mahomet ' s tomb are suspended betwet ^ the new aud old move , much inoliniug to the former if they dared , will be proposed as fit and proper delegates ; bat we must be on our guard . Let us have none but tried men ; good men , sound men , bravo men , prudent men , and , above all , I do hope aid trust that the working men in each locality
will demand a sufficient time to canvass the merits of candidates , and that they will not send a single man to London upon whose principles , honour , and fidelity they have not a most perfect reliance . Here I must be allowed to express my delight npon learning that those two good men and brave men , Messrs . Moir and Proudfoot , havo been elected to represent Glasgow ; how glorious to Sad the real working men thus selecting persons of undoubted zeal , courage , and talent , to represent them .
Next week I commence my English tour for signatures and enlisting recruits for our Association ; and as the cards of admission furnish all the means upon which the Execudve can rely , I have a right to expect a rich harvest for them from my coming labour . I onght to be able to add , at least , fifty thousand new members to our several Associations , as it is my intention to remain at the close of each meeting to receive signatures to the petition , members to the association , and then to perform a work
of well-merited kindnesa to a friend . 1 will here mention it . No man on the face of the earth has been more honest , zealous , and persevering in his devotion to the people ' s cause thau Dr . M'Douall . No act has been more servicable than his defence ; and now we mus : testify our approval substantially . I find that bis all is gone , while he has several duties—domestic duties to perform . It is his wish and the desire of his Chartist friends , that he should be established in his profession at Manchester ; and ,

BTOCKPORT .-Mr . Donovan , of Manchester lectured on Sunday eyening , Great distress still perwles thb unhappy town , ' ;
HANl * Y . —Public Meeting , to " congratulate" the Queen . —A placard appeared on the walls of this tows , calling a publio meeting of the inhabitants to take into , consideration the best means of testifying our loyalty to our gracious Queen , and celebrating the auspioious event of the birth of an heir to the throne ,. The Chartists here felt that this would be a most favourable , opportunity of proving their loyalty to their Sovereign , and attended in considerable numbers , prepared either to support an address from those calling the meeting , if they could approve of such address , or if they could not support that address , then to propose an amendment , or otherwise move an address of their own . Eleven o ' clock was the time appointed by the Chief Bailiff ,
E . J . Ridgway , Esq ., for the time of meeting , when , without ever being proposed , he , sans ceremonie , U > ok the chair , and opened the meeting b reading the placard , and then introduced Mr . G . Fourdrancer to the meeting . Of course we expected to have heard from that gentleman something like an address to her Majesty , when , to the surprise of the people , he proposed a pnblib subscription by the people , to provide A publie feast to some few favoured individuals , in a public Marketplace . Every one contributing to the fund should be provided with tickets to the amount of his subscription , and be at liberty to distribato such tickets according to his own pleasure . During his address , several voioes exclaimed "We want justice ; " "None of your oharitable
guzzles - ; " " Give us our rights , and then we can provide ourselves with all we want . " The gentleman then submitted , through the chair , that such a subscription ba instantly entered into . On this being put to the meeting , only very few hands wore held up ; but , on the contrary , a forest of palms was held up . Here the Chief Bailiif declared the meeting at a close , and instantly the whole Whig and Tory clique , parson and all , abruptly left the meeting . After Mr . Ridgway had left the meeting , our friend , Mr . Samuel Bebbington , was called on to preside , who , in a short but neat speech , called on our old friend , Brother Richards , who immediately came forward and addressed the meeting . He lamented that the Chief Bailiff , and those calling the meeting ,
should so soon desert their post ; and argued that , if their loyalty was no better than their oourage , why , then , the Queen would have but sorry defenders , for the gentlemen ran away before one single shot had been fired , or a single unpleasant word , been expressed . He next adverted to the distressed state of the country , shewing that whilst the Queen had every comfort , thousands of our beloved countrywomen were suffering the severest sorrows , when they should have been in a comfortable state . He next read from the Northern Star the Birth Extraordinary , and the contrast at the foot of the paragraph , commenting in his usual style on the extremes of luxury aud destitution , made manifest in that contrast , and then read an address congratulating her Majesty upon the
" auspicious event , " informing her that thousands of virtuous and modest women were passing through like natural extremities upon beds of straw , without even a pillow whereon to lay their heads ; that starvation and misery were pervading the whole land ; attributing this state of things to class legislation ; and praying her Majesty to instruct her Ministers to pass the People ' s Charter into a law ; further praying that her Majesty would at this period of Providential interference for her own safety , remember the sufferings of Frost , Williams , and Jones , for whom thousands of her subjects were in mourning , and recall them to their homes and families . The Rev . W . V . Jackson , from Manchester , in a most masterly and eloquent manner , satirized the conduct
of the callers of the meeting by their ruuniug away , showing that had they but possessed the oourage of a mouse they would have stopped through the meeting and have seen the upshot of the whole . Mr . J . Capper , from Tavctall , followed , and in a humourous stile lampooned without mercy the conduct of men who called the poor Chartiata dishonest men ; and yet themselves , many of them , had found their way into the Gazette , and paid 3 s . 6 d . in the pound for all their debts . Three defeaning cheers were then given for Feargus O'Connor , three for Frost , Williams , and Jones , and throe for the Charter , and the meeting quietly dispersed to their own homes ; thus proving to tho whole nation , that when the Chartists arc united they are more than a . match for Whig , Tory , and all opponents .
NOTTINGHAM . —On Tuesday , the 9 th instant , Mr . J . Murray , of Manchester , lectured in the Democratic Chapol , Rice-place , Booker-gate , to a most crowded audience , Mr . J . Wall in the chair . Mr . Murray endeavoured to shew that a total repeal of the Corn Laws would prove a panacea for all our manifold national evils . The working men were not to be cajoled by such sophistries , and at the conclusion of the lecture , Mr . Russell moved the following rer olution , which was seconded by Mr . Barber : — "That this meeting is of opinion , that the Corn Laws wero the enactment of but a small portion of the nation , therefore , unjust , iniquitous , and ought to be repealed ; but if repealed under existing circumstances , an irresponsible government could enact other equally cruel and unjust laws ; and further , in tha opinion of this meeting , no measure short of the People ' s Charter , could put the working olasses in a position to protect their labour .

When we commenced business upon our own account , many were the insinuations and calumnies
laid against us .

Seme of them that made these insinuations have fallen into the pit they had prepared for us , while we are going on , and increasing in Btresgtb and capital , far beyond the expectations of its fondest admirers . When we took our store-rooms , the whole amount of our capital was £ 13 —a small beginning for a grocery and provision shop , without a fraction of credit , but still we persevereo and braved many difficulties , and sow our capital amounts io £ 103 , and the sales for the last twelve months were £ 1 , 975 . This will show what we atb doing in this town , whose population is little more than 6 . 000 .
