Mt beloved F&iends , —I have frequently made guesses , aad not bad ones , for yon , and now I have to recall your attention to every one of my prophecies m * de upon the turning out of the Whigs , and the turning in of the Tories ; of my letter as to the result of failure from Sir Robert Peel ' s Tariff , the rery first written upon the subject in the light in which I therein placed it before you ; andj above all , I hare to recall your attention to the tendency » nd substance of every one of my speeches during my more recent tour . Did I not tell you . over and
orer again , that the factions would shortly fight ; and that , if wise , you would fold your arms when n vited to take a share , and look quietly on until Jhey had eaten each other , like Kilkenny cats , to the tails ! Did I not tell you that , in the event of the Tariff failing , recourse wonld be had to martial Jaw , and every stretch of power , to suppress public opinion ? Andisitnotso ! Now , myfriend 3 , it matters not who commenced the recent outbreak , who perpetuates it , and how it may terminate ; bnt one thing is certain , and that i 3 , henceforth the people
Biusilook to themselves , and to themselvesocly , forthe establishment of their principles . This will blow over when tyranny is gorged with its victims ; and then so far from democracy receiving a check , it will progress with redoubled vigour . In fact , it cannot be otherwise ; for , as I have often tcld you , machinery itself , if the proprietors had all their own way , would so centralise the wealth of the country in a few hands that the successful gamblers would become objects of envy to one class , of scorn to another , and of suspicion to all .
The great value of tho recent outbreak is the knowledge , that it ha 3 given us of our friends and of our enemies . We find the weak and chicken-hearted fly to the arms of their own -and the people ' s bitterest enemies to enBure a dishonourable safety ; while , not satisfied with their individual acts of baseness , they would further damn our cause by creating and extending disunion . But even in spite of these false friends the cause of freedom willsnrvive , and its banners willycttriuaiphantly ware over their onmoarned remains ; while the scorn of the living will mark them through life as
traitors and deserters . Every great-commotion is Sure to have its vietizn ? , but the good and faithful will survive ev ^ ry shock of factious opinion . Howproud must I be to have withstood the shock of my pro-Tory policy , and to have witnessed its recognition by the whole people , in defiance of the eaprice and madness of those who wonld havehonndsd on Whig preferaUeness . How much more proud u : u = t I now be to Sad the whole nation as one m-n , rallying rouud me once more as their prop and their main-stay , laughing at the attempts of 'he wicked and smiling treason out of
counienasc *! Envy would have marked me as a sacrifice for hatred , but prudence , courage , and honesty have siood between me and danger . Many have beeD , and more will be , sacrificed , nnle-s timely aid is rendered . I have appoiled to you before ; I must now appeal to you again , for the means of defence . You fee tba ; the middling classes will not assist ; why not then take the advice of our excellent friend O'Higgins , and havs one general day for subscription . I hope to attend all lhe Special Commissions in person , if they are not held simultaneously ; but then I must have the means of rendering comfort to the uffl- ' cted .
The Defence Fund of 1839 owes me over £ 300 , and if I had means now at my command I would rot call upon you , but as I hare not , I call upon every village , town , hamlet , and district to meet on Saturday next-, the 17 th inst ., for iho purpose of subscribing towards the defence of our friends who are now in custody , and who will shortly be tried . Although I have no pecuniary interest , none whatever , in the success of the Evening Star , I have to communicate the glad tidings th ^ t it is fast spreading Chartist principles in circles where they
have not heretofore been even thought of . I do not Etop here . Our machinery is not yet complete ; but should I liv « till January I shall have done my share , by attaching a monthly magsrine to the machinery already in existence for the furtherance of our cause . The win . ] 3 of the pronta derived from it shall go to the support of our causa , and shall also , I trust , famish a permanent defence fund , a very necessary ingredient , which I requested you five years ago to raise , not the moment thai it was required , but as a permanent thing to fall back upon .
Thus you find that in general , the " traitor and coward' is compelled to take the post of danger and responsibility , while the paithfcl and vama . vt continue to eke a comfortable livelihood , without encountering the one or being pampered with the other . You on form no estimate of the confusion caused by the altered circumstances of the Evening Siar in the ranks of the old " press ga ng * ' They are 1 'terally in fits ; for all impartial politicians declare
that the people paper is the only one worth reading . Just recollect the state in which the Northern Star fonnd public opinion iu the provinces , and the state to which it has brought it now , and then bear in mind the position iu which I found public opinion in the metropolis , and mark the change that I am making there . My movements in your cause hare aone of them been slow , while all have been bold and safe . A man cannot do a
nation' ? work , bat he can teach them how to do their own ; that I am doing , tad have been engaged in for the last seven years , and shall continue despite all temporary impedimei : ta to turn every tocid-.-nt or circumstance that fate or policy may present to the advancement of the Chartist principl' 8 . You will easily believe that I must feel a greatft anxiety in all matters connected with this movement , than any other living man . I do not look upon it as
a means of livelihood or support , I look upon it as a stroke which most make or mar the cause of democracy . It has suffered no damage at my hands—it never shall , nor will I be driven from my conrse by the fool , the knave , or the traitor . Chartism will Bake another bounce , az > d that ere long , and will pass the narrow bounds which tyrants would estab lish as its limits . Treachery may prosper for a time , but its abettors will learn that a brave and oppressed people cannot be kept in bondage by bayonets , or held there by special commissions . I am , ycur faithful friend , Feargus O'Cossoa .

A public meeting was held on Tuesday evening , September the 6 tb , at the Hall of Science , Lawrenee street , for the purpose of choosing a committee for flefeEoing that sterling advocate of the people ' s rights , George White , at his forthcoming trial . " By eight o ' clock the room wbs nearly fall of working men , who , throughout the whole of the proceedings conducted themselves in the most orderly and becoming manner . Mr . Walttb Thork was called to the chair , and in optning the bnsine ^ s of the meeting read the following letter from Feargus O'Concor , in reply to one iorwarded to him by order of a previous meet ire : —
Dear Thorn . —In ordinary times I could give you an opinion upon tbe conduct of the authorities , and some guess on the law tpen tbe case . But when a joEction of factions taxes place for the snpprearion of all jnstioe , lights , and lav , then is boDest opinion useless . I do not see how tbe authorities cculd nave refused tie proffered bail . Bat their doing it ia enougk , aad precludes tbe possibility of any remonstrance for the present . However , if bail is not taken , I shall « £ dfcavour to cave tne matter brought before tbe Judgea I can only say , that if I am tendered and accepted by the magistrates that I will start at once , and do the needful . FEA . EGU 8 O'Connor .
Sir . Thorn . Mr . J . Fcssxia , in rising to move tbe first re * o lntion , was received with acclamation . He requested tb « meeting to offer no marks of approbation or disapprobation , and thus give booby-headed magistrates no opportunity of declaring the meeting a riotous and illegal one . He then took a retrospective view of tbe condition of the conntry , and com-¦ tented upon Sir Robert Peel ' s expression of bis determinati on to form a " strong Government , he ( Sir R . Peel ) meaning thereby , notto have a Government who should investigate and reform abuses , but one that should put down by force the free expression , of opinion . George White was one of the victims of Sir Robert ' s strong Government . But despotism cannot wntroul a- determined

people ; bayonets cannot longer support tyranny , and never could put down freedom of thought . Sir R . Peel , whilst he declared his sympathy for the distressed , imprisoned those who endeavoured to relieve ; it , and induced the Queen to offer blood-money for the apprehension and destruction of the friends of those whose miseries he affeoted to commiserate . Th « Corn Law League were the first to commence the late agitation , and also the first to turn upon those whsm they had driven to desperation , and voluntarily lend their aid to tke
i action for whom they professed the greatest hatred . Whigling 3 had advised the people not to pay taxes . Had the Chartist leaders done bo ? No ! they had denounced the recommendation as illegal . Would the strcng Government listen to the prayers of an injured people \ He hoped they would . The only way to prove it was for every honest man to join the National Charter Association , and put them to the test by making an appeal . He hoped they would not cease to support both him and his family , ? o long as they may need it , and concluded by proposing ihe following : —
That this meeting expresses their warmest sympathy with their oppressed friend George Wkite , and their determination to render him every support ia their power ; and also takes this opportunity of declaring their utter detestation and disgust of the course pursued by the authorities , in their illegal refusal of the duly-qualified bail who have been proffered on his behalf . " Mr T . P . Geeen iwconded the resolution . Mr . Lindom Smith moved " That a committee be appointed to raise funds for the defence of Mr . Geo . White . "
He said the parties who had committed White to take his trial at the sessions , upon the evidence of worthless witnesses , one of whom had been twice imprisoned , were the same individuals who would try him upon that occasion . They might form a pretty correct gue 33 of his late , if his trial were not traversed . He hopsd those who couseDtei to act upon the committee , would be determined to do their duty , or else withdraw thsir names , that there might be no disappointment experienced . Mr . Thorp seonded the resolution . The meeting then named the committee . Mr . Mackintosh moved the third resolution : — " That this meeting expresses its sympath y with the -whole of the imprisoned friends of liberty throughout the country , and trust that the sons of freedom will rally round them , and support them in their hour of need . "
The Chartists , he said , were frequently taunted with want of energy in their support of victims ; he trubted there would be no want of energy upon the present occasion , or he would taunt them too . George White had proved himself an uncompromising , bold , and honest supporter of the rights of the people , and he had a claim upon iheir support in return . He wished them to see how government acted towards those who suffered in its service . To the four daughters of an officer who lately fell in Afftihanisian , the Government had given £ 100 a year for life . To the wife of a policeman who lost his life in a fray tbe other day , had been given about £ 400 , which had made her independent . This was not done from sympathy for the sufferers or
their survivors , but as an inducement for men to go boldly forward , and unhesitatingly do the bidding of those in power . Such should be the conduct of working men , when any victims fell in their cause . The snrest way to destroy tyranny was to convert the intended punishment into an advantage and an honour to the victim . They formerly put men into the pillory for political offences , but this was speedily abandoned , wh « n the people , instead of ill-treating them , received them with acclammaiions , and showed them every kindness . The resolution was a general one , but he must particularly mention his friend George White , whom he firmiy believed to be an honest man if there was one in the conntry .
Mr . Halse seconded the resolution . He said , he fully agreed with the previous speaker . The time was come when spies should have no handle upon them . They should have no strangers among them . When men came busying themselves in their committees , they should ask them where they came from , and how they obtained thoir daily bread . They should , as Mr . Mackintosh had baid , make it the interest of men to serve them . He had read the report of G . White ' s examination , and , like many others , could not conceive what reasons could have induced his commutal . There were none to be drawn from the published reports . Mr . White had , in his opinion , acted legally , and without wish to break any laws . The reply of Government to the appeals made to them had been bayonets and bullets , and not an investigation into tbe causes of muery .
A vote of thanks was then given to the Chairman and the meeting separated .

O'Connor of cowardice , we take this opportunity of expressing oar confidence in the Executive and Mr . O'Connor , for the noble and sraightfomard manner in which they have heretofore acted in the people's cause ; aad are of opinion that Mr . O'Brien and ' An Old Chartist , ' who refuses to give his name , are more entitled to the name of coward than those whom they have chosen eo to designate . "
STJNDERtAND . —On Monday evening a meeting was held in the large room , Arcade , Sunderland , to elect delegates to the proposed National Conference , Rev . A . Wilson , Baptist minister , in the chair . T .

the Council of the Complete Suffrage Union to call one as early as possible . His brief speech was clear , sound , and impressive . Mr . Brace , srrooer , spoke in support of the resolution . Mr . Williams then came forward , and spoke at some length , expressing the pleasure he had f « lt at the proceedings of the meeting , pointing out the differences between the Complete Suffrage Union aad the National Charter Association , declaring his determination to abide by the latter , but declaring his conviction that the former was useful and necessary in the present class divisions of the people . Mr . Dobbie afterwards britfly addressed the meeting .
PETERBOROUGH . —The members of the National Charter Association , Petsrborough , have read with feelings of disgust the ktter in tho British Statesman , with the editorial remarks , reflecting upon the conduct of Feargus O'Connor , and wo asstire them we have so much respect and veneration for , and confidence in , the valiant and honest leader of our cause , and champion of the people ' s rights , that he who toucheth him toncbeta the apple of our eye . The enemies of the people , no doubt , hoped , ere this , to have Eeen him peeping through
tbe iron gratings , but thank God , their schemes have been thwarted ; he is yet at large advocating the people ' s rights ; and may the hand that next takes up a pen to injure the character of this good mau instantly become paraliaed , is the sincere prayer aad ardent desire of the Chartists of Peterborough . We think it right pnblicly to make known our disapprobation of all such villanoas and uncalled for attacks upon any of our loadors ; and by inserting this letter in the Northern Star , you will greatly oblige the Chariibts of Peterborough and subscribers to your paper .

Monument Committee , for the manner in which they have taken up and vindicated the conduct of the brave patriot , O'Onuor , against the base , dastardly , and cold-blooded attack of an individual , signing himself "an Old Chartist , " and also tbe editor of the British Statesman" " That we acquiesce in the views entertained by Mr . Hill , the Editor of the Northern Star , regarding the postponement of the projected National Conference . [ We regret that the Halifax Chartists have made this exhibition . Such scenes do not tend either to improve th « character or obtain the rights of the people . The best thing the people can do in the matter , is just to let both O'Brien and his paper alone .

room . He was followed by Mr . Dyott , who , in a Bpeech replete with telling humour and incontrovertible argument supported the Charter and ridiculed its opponents . Several other gentlemen addressed the assembly , and the fruits of their oratory were diBcemablo in tho coming forward of three individuals ( besides thot-e admitted at the beginning of the proceedings ) who professed their conviction that nothing was left for Ireland but to go for the Charter , the whole Charter , and nothing but the Charter , and who were immediately at their desire enrolled members , the association boasting now close upon 1 , 200 members .

Mr . Twite called attention to a letter , which appealed in the " Statesman , " signed " An Old Chartist , " and after commenting thereon , together with the vindictive and detracting editorial remarks upon the said letter , he concluded by proposing the following resolution : — " That it is the opinion of this meeting that the letter which appeared in the British Statesman , of Saturday , the 2 ; th nit ., and eigued' An Old Chartist , ' was a cowardly attack upon Feargus O'Connor , Esq ., Dr . M'Donall , Mr . Campbell , and Mr . Hill , and calculated to injure the Chartist cause ; and that a letter be written to the Editor calling upon him to give up the name of the individual so tty . iDg himself ; also calling upon him for an explanation relative to the charge made
in the leader of the same paper , of cowardice and treachery against Feargus O'Connor , Esq . Also that thib meeting approve of the oonduct of Mr . Hill , in not inserting what the Old Chartist'and the Statesman Btyle ' The Address of the Executive . " This was seconded by Mr . Furae . An amendment was proposed by Mr . Roberts , to the fcffeot— - " That this meeting repudiate and condemn all denunciation , come from what party it may . " A desultory conversation was now carried on for some time . As no one seconded the amendment , the orginal resolution was put and carried . The meeting then broke up . A public meeting is held at the above premises every Monday evening .

He urged the people to union , . but upon principle—the People ' s Charter , and nothing less—and sat down amidst the repeated plaudits « f the meeting . Mr . Hanley moved a vote of thanks to the lecturer , which was carried by acclamation . Mr . Colquhoun being called upon , briefly addressed the meeting . He urged the people to renewed vigour , andeaid they were not to take
the present calm as an earnest of the indifference of the people ; it was not apathy , but despondency . He hoped the Anderston Committee , alone with the Committee in the City , would take immediate steps to put Glasgow in a position by which they should be prepared to take part in a national deliberation as to their future line of policy . Mr . Hanley said their committee were jnat getting up » meeting of delegates , to consider the present condition of the country , which m eeting was fixed for Thursday evening , the 12 tb , when the subject referred to by Mr . Colquhoun would receive their most serious consideration .

TORQUAY " , Devonshire—The Chartist tu * g has been here nailed to the mast head . Twent >' -nve members have been enrolled , and the infant society has every prospect of going gallantly a head . Vr " e have received frosg them an expression of their confidence , and of tharr disgust at the "Old ChartistV slanders . They hare » ur thanks . RATCLJFFE BRX 3 JGS . -The Chartists of tlm place paid a visit to tb » church on Sunday last , to hear a sermon preached from the first six verses of the fifth chapter of St , James , by the Rev . J . Diverse , of tha ^) lace . 1 ? he Chartists had selected this portion of scripture for the Rev . gentleman on the Sunday previoas , but fee-requested to ha-va time to consider the subject , and promised if they would
attend on the Sunday following * he would preach them a sermon from the above text . They attended accordingly , and filled the church , so that there was no room for the regular church-going parties , and gave the parson an opportuuity © f holding ibitb . for once to a full house . He was as good as bis-wordhe did preach from the text that they had selected for him—but it was his theological opinion that the text had no reference to the rich men of this country , oat to the Jews that had forsaken the religion of the living God . But how different the conduct of the rich men of this day . Had they not a- proof of this
every day before our eyes , in tho splendid mansion that they had built for their minister , the servant of God , to lire in . He then told them that it was not the rioh men that had stopped them from working . No , the rioh men were willing to find them employment , and give them good wages for their work ; but this he would tell them , that unless they came to terms with the misters that the country would be under martial law , and very properly too , in' less than a fortnight . The people left in a peaceable manner , at the same time telling him that they would come again when he preached the whole council of God alike to rich and poor .
ROCTEE . Ii AND DESBOROr / GH ( NORTHam ? - ton shibe . )—After two excellent lectures delivered by Messrs . Bairstow and Jones on the principles of tho Charter . A locality was formed between the two towns , and twenty have enrolled themselves as members of the National Charter Association . CHELTENHAM . —On Sunday evening , Mr . Bairstow delivered a most eloquent and powerfully impressive discourse from the words " Crucify him , crucify him , " to an overcrowded meeting , in tbe Mechanics'Institute . On Monday , a very crowded audience
met tbe Council of tbe Cheltenham Charter Association and tba National Complete Suffrage Union , who bad drown up an Address to be sent to Mr . Sturge of B ! r * mingbam , in the same room . Tbe , Address was moved by Mr . Melsom , seconded by Mr . Laray , and carried unanimously . Mr . Bairstow then delivered a most argumentative , convincing , and thrillingly elequetit lecture on " tJke strike , its causes . and reaults . " He gave the police spies present a moat stinging castigatlon . Thirteen membetB were onrolled . All went off peaceably .
LEICESTER . —The Sbabsperian Chartists held a large meeting of several thousands on Sunday last , to hear nn address from a female Chartist , but in consequence of her receiving a note that if she attempted to speak sbe wauld be taken into custody , the addreas was not delivered—a hymn was song , and one or two Chartists said a few words , and a collection was made towards defraying the espeuces of Mr . Cooper ' s defence . Another large meeting was beld in the All Saints Room , on Monday evening . Mr . Jones , the Chartist
poet , in the chair . The meeting was addressed by Messrs . Jackson , MarkhaK , and Hodgson on tbe present condueV of the Government . We have not yet been able to find sufficient bail for Mr . Wm . Jones , the talented lecturer from Liverpool . We have tendered bail for him , who have been worth double the amount , yet they refuse , and will give no reason why . It appears the object of their refusal is , to keep him from giving instruction to the people . They are that jealous of him that they have put him in a debtor's ward by himself .

ONE HUNDRED POUNDS REWARD . Thanks , great thanks , to the " Old Chartist . " The link of which tyranny was defioient , has been supplied by his hands . The " most extraordinary document" was fatherless , and authority knew not upon whom to charge the bantling , but treason soon found a parent , and laid the " blood-hound" on the scent . One hnndred pounds reward has been offered for the apprehension of Dr . MDouall . Every man throughout the land ianowacquainted with his height , complexion , age , accent , dress , gait , and appearance ; his eyes , his hair , his whiskers , nose , and cheek bones , are minutely described : and no doubt , the
assurance by "An Old Chartist , " that M'Douall ' s friends were dis gusted with him . hasled the authorities to the conclusion that he may be safely hunted like a hare , as prey to feed their appetites . This is a repetition of those soenes of havoc , woe , and devastation , so daringly , bat bo unsuccessfully , resorted to by the Whigs in 1139 , for the suppression of Chartism ; but as they failed then , bo will they fail now , and , in the long run , the devices of the wicked will torn upon themselves . This sacking of the Chartist leaders , preparatory to a grand assault of the League , ia a deep and hellish stroke . One aimed at the movement party , intended / for its destruction , and the re-establishment of Whiggery upon its rains .
Perhaps we may have anew version of Whiggery , in which Peel , Russell , and Palmerston may ehake hands upon the principles of free trade , accompanied with a general pledge , to crush the movement party first , and then to set abont feeding the free traders upon the English funds , the English lands , and the English people . Such pledge wonld satisfy even the partisans of the Right Hon . Baronet . Now , we would seriously ask , whether or no this revolution of the League was concocted with tho double view , firstly , of trying what effec * general confusion may have in uniting the discordant elements in a demand for a repeal of the Corn Laws ; and , secondly , to anticipate that revolution which was predicted to
break out in winter , in order that soldiers , police , and specials , may have the fair play of long days at their victims . Be this as it may , one thing is now certain , and that ia , that the people have at length discovered that when a stand is made ; for principle , all factions will join in opposing _ then . We have given elsewhere the description of Mr . M'Donall , as placed on the walls , and in the keeping of all policemen , and no doubt deposited at the general centralising depots , the several railway stations ; and , as Lover makes his fox a politician , and reader of newspapers , in order that he may know where the hounds axe to meet , wo would recommend our hare neither to show his whiskers , eyes , or hair , his gait or complexion , at any of the great railway pioture galleries . —Evening Star *

Mr . Brahdt and Mr . Hvvtos appeared for the prosecution . The firsfr eleven prisoners were defended by Mr . Greens-, and the twelve immediately succeeding them * by Mr . Whigham . Theothers were undefended . Upwards of sixty wifcseoses were examined for the prosecution . Mr . GaKEifB addressed tfie court for upwards of an hour on behalf of his clientsv He coatended that the 1 evidence waa not sufficient to connect any of the 1
prisoners with the mob who-tarned oat the colliers at Clifton , and accounted f&r the presence of the prisoners at the place where they were taken ,. Instating , that some of them vvare returning from a meeting at KersaH Moor , and others were present accidentally , or through curiosity . In the course of his observations , he accused ihe Anti-Corn Law League , and some members of Hie Anti-Corn Law Conference recently held in London , as having , by inflammatory harangues , instigated and incited the working classes to- acts of outrage .
Mr . Whigham pursued a similar line of observation , and contended , thai the inntoence of the prisoners waa perfectly reconcilable with their preaerieir at the collieries after the arrival of the military . Witnesses to character wera then examined on behalf of all the prisoners , except Salmon and Wolfendale . Most of the witnesses were respectable and intelligent men , and the character given of th » prisoners in genera ! was very favourable .. Mr . Foster then summed up the-evidence affecting each prisoner separately , and paused after each
case , to allow the jury an opportunity of coming toa decision upon it before he proceeded to tho n ^ xt . At seven o ' clock the jury retired ; and , having deliberated for about half an hour , they returned into * court , and acquitted all the prisoners , except tha following , against whom they returned a verdict of Guilty : —John Bra mall , John Fielding , John Holland , John Lane , Thomas Orme , and Ralph Taylor . Mr . Foster said , he should not pass-sentence oa these , ' as there were other pr , souers to be tried for a > similar cfil-nce upon some of whom he might have topass sentence also , and all might be sentenced at
thesame time . - The prisoners , who had conducted themselves in a very becoming manner throughout the trial , then queitly withdrew , and were met by a large body of " their relatives and friends out of aeors , who were anxiously awaiting the result of the trial . The court rose at eight o'clock , having been occupied ten hours in this case .

behalf of the prosecution in the previous cose wera examined , and similar testimony given . All tho prisoners- received a good character .
