VAIiB OE 1 EVEN . —On Monday week , a public meeting cf the incabitantrf of this place was held in tha OJd FelJows' large Hall , to hear an address from Mr . Robert Peddle , the victim of th « spy sytem . The following resolution was adopted previous to the lecture : — " We , the iababitanfs of : tto Vale of Leven , in public meeting assembled , 4 o txpress our warm and heartfelt sympathy -with those brave and patriotic men in the sister island now so gallantly struggling ior the reattainment of a doaiestio ; legislature ; and not enly do we sympathise with ibem ( but also pledge ourselves to give them every assistance that we legally amd consHtntionally can do . in Ibis . their glorious tffort to obtain t ^ at freedom which God has given to every creature under Heaven , namely , the right of self-government . The more especially oo -wa feel ourselves called upon to
come forward at this thne . iwUh expressions of satjsfaction at , and warm ^ t tvishea for , the tuccess of the Repeal agitavJon ia Ireland , as certain portions of the British hireling p- ess Lab most falsely and moat wiefcedly stated that the working nien of England and Scotland feel no interest in these / truly grand and glorious struggles for rational liberty ; and still farther , as with grief and heartfelt sorrow we behold what -we cannot help calling a most dishonest and diabolical attempt on the part of the enemies of freedom to enlist on the side of power the religions prejudices of the Protestant Christians , by insinuating that » he real interest of the leaders ot the Rspeal agitation in Ireland is to establish Catholic supremacy in that country . As Protestants ourselves we do fearlessly assest that -we zneptrsnaded that these wicked insinuations ; arebnt a weak invention of
the enemy , meant to throw the apple of religious discord amongst the friends ! of freedom , —only another proof that the Tories hayetnot forgot their old axiomdivide and conquer—an attempt that , wa feel confident , will prove as useless to them as it is wicked in intention . And we , the inhabitants of the Vale of Leven , do most Beriously exhort onr Irish brethren to continue fearlessly their noble and patriotic career , nothing doubting that a speedy and bloodless triumph awaits them . Also , as men of stern principle , we feel called upon to say , that in class legislation—and in class legislation alone—is to be fonnd the origin of both Ireland's and England ' s woe . And , moreover , bad it not been for the existence of class legislation , Ireland conld not have feeen so basely robbed by ja British Parliament of her resident Hcuse of Representatives . "
A Ppblic Otjt-doob Meeting of the inhabitants of the Vale was held in Alexandria , on Monday evening last , to petition Parliament on behalf of Cooper and Richards , and against the Irish Arms Bill . Nearly 2000 persons assembled . Mr . Roberts was called to the chair . Mr . J . MvFadyen moved the first resolution , " That this meeting views with horror and indignation the cruel treatment inflicted npon Thomas Cooper and Richards , and agree to petition Parliament for a mitigation of their sufferings / ' -which was ably seconded by Mr . Burns . Mr . G . Ferguson moved the next resolution , " That this meeting likewise petition against the Irtish Arms BilL'' Mr . C . Glen seconded the resolution , and proceeded to make a number ef able remarks on the policy pursued by the government towards Ireland . He next , in a speech of striking eloquence , appealed to the people to do their duty in-resisting all encroachments
npon tbeir civil and religious liberties . Mr . Glen retired amid great cheering . , The Chairman put the resolutions , which wen . carried unanimously . A petition to Parliament was read to the' meeting , and carried amidst cheers . Mr . Robert Peddie , from Edinburgh , was next introduced by the Chairman . He explained the workings of the Irish Arms Bill in 1798 , and after relating some of the mest cruel and unjust acts which were ever perpetrated on a Christian people , proceeded to give the meeting some account of the treatment of political offenders in the jails and hell holeB of England . Mr . Peddie addressed the meeting for . an bonr and a half , npon which he retired amid great applause . The meeting then gave three cheers for the Chairman , and three for the Bands , and three cheers for the Charter and the Repeal , after -which tb . 6 y retired highly pleased . ' The meeting was then adjourned till next evening .

A vpte of thanks to Mr * Harney and to the chairman , and three cheers for Repeal , and three for the Charter , closed the meeting .
CWTHEROS . —More TriuNNY of the Middle Classes . —It bad been annouueed by placard for at least six dajs previous , that Mr . D . Boss , of Manchester , would deliver three lecturts , in the large room at the Swan Inn , on the 5 th , 6 th , and 7 th of June ^ Tb . 8 first lecture was to be upon Elocution ; the second on the ; political aspect of Chartism i and the third on the [ Evils of toe Contpe'HtiTe System . When Mr . Ross entered the Swan Inn , at the appointed time , he was very impertinently told by the landlord that he could not have the room . Mr . Ross—What is the reason I cannot have it ! Mr . Holdernesfr—I have twenty reasons . Mr ., Ross— Give one reason 1 Mr . Holdernefe—The room is my own ; I am master here . As an Englishman , 1 am opposed to Chartism , and it shan ' t be mentioned here .
During this conversation , a Mr . Horsfall , an understrapping manufacturer , ont > of the saintly disciples of the League , began to vociferate like a moonstrickeu maniac , stating that he would bag all those in hiBor thoir employ who had anything to do with Chartism ; upon : which , Mr . Ross told him that he was a striking evidence of the cruelties practised by the manufacturing despots of the age . ; After a little more conversation of this sort , this "humane" employer appeared so overcome with passion , as to be ready to faint . Ashamed of being made to look so truly contemptible in tbe eyes of the workies , by whom he was surrounded , he stated jthat he could stand it no longer , and evidently showed symptoms of fight , prefacing his gestures with sundry
oaths and angry imprecations , upon which Mr . Ross told him , that after the sample which he had given him of his good breeding , he mu&t certainly decline all further conversation with him . Mr . Ross again addressed the landlord , asking him what authority he acted upon ; when He replied that he was acting upon the advice given by the magistrates . He morc ' over stated the magistrates were determined to put down all Chartist meet ings ; upon which Mr . Ifoss iremarked that despite the disposition of the magistrates , they laoked the means to do so , having the authority of the highest lawyers in the n-alm for ! maintaining the right Of public discusssipn . A number of working men , who were Dieeent during ithis conversation ,, were forcibly
ejected byAone of those precious donatiouabequeathed by the Whigs during their merciless administration , yclept a policeman ; this precious functionary had been previously well crammed with strong drink in order to inflate his valour to the fighting point j meantime ivlr . Boss and the landlord were engaged in altercation , the landlord stating thait he cbuld ^ at any time crush Chartism by argument ; upon which Mr . Ross requested him to send for the industrious magistrates , who bad so busily interested themselves on tho occasion , and having placed ond of the abovenamed authorities in the chair , Mr . Ross would undertake to prove jthat they knew no more of Chartism , its power , ' and capabilities , than ? the members of the establishment know of justice and humanity .
By this time the landlords' puissance had evaporated , not so the strong driuk With which , he had bolstered upJhis sinking resolution ; Mr . Koss finding that nothing could be done with these violators of the public faith , left them to their own reflections . Dpoii entering the street ^ surrounded by a number of his friends , he was followed by the policeman , whose idespondiug demeanour proved how much he was disappointed in consequence of not having an oppoituniiy afforded him , of conveying some one to prison , there to be dealt With according to tho caprice otl the . public authorities . This disturber of the public peace told Mr . Ross that he must move on , upon which Mr . Ross told him that he had better move off . The policeman , whom drunkenness had ! almost deprived 0 ? articulation , replied that it wai the QueenV highway ; upon which
Mr . Ross remarked that he was sorry to find it obstructed by such ornaments as policemen , telling him , moreoverj that he knew his privilege too well to allow such individuals the right of addressing him . Here the policeman looked alarmingly big . elevating at the same time his indolent arm * in Which he carried a-weapon , as £ though he was about to intimate what might be expected to follow . He told Mr . Ross that he knew him , upon which Mr . Ross remarked that he : could not rejoice in , his acquaiatance , telling him at the same time , ihaifc he ought to know him , for that he was most unwillingly compelled to help to maintain him . Here { the policeman was greeted with fa yell of exebration , upon which he withdrew , no doubt to tha parties iwho employed him , in order to tie rewardtd by his trusty aa ^ norters for ihe valuable services he had thus nobly performed . The room was engaged and bald fojrat least
ten days previous . In consequence of the unconBtitutfonal means taken to suppress the three lectures intended to have been delivered by ] Mr . Ross , it has been determined that a public meeting will be held pa the Sabden side of PendleHill . on Sunday , aun # 18 thj 1843 , at twelve o'clock at noon , Hr . Boss and other gentlemen will attend . | ChartistB , attend in your countless thousands , and shew that it is vain : and fruitless ! to attempt to suppress the righteous cause of democracy .

Another of the League was doing the same thing , and one' had this verjf last week stopped bis engine and redosed bis bands-one half-halfpenay per cot . which put about £ 7 per fortnight into bis pocket . Working men , this ia the way you ate to be made happy by tha Leagise men . Are jyoa eatinfled of their intentions ? If you are not watk > them closely , and you soon will be . Ob !

The scene on the heath was an imposing one . On one part of tho ground were the stern sons of democracy congregated together for jthe purpose of sym-r pathiaing with their persecuted brethren , and of swearing eternal fidelity to those principles for which they were suffering . On j another part of tho heath were an immense assembly advocating total
abstinence from the use of intoxicating drinks , the excessive use of which has made many an happy home miserable , and driven to dissipation and ultimate destruction many a youtg person , who , but for the nae . of these intoxicating liquids , ! might have become bright ornaments of society .

Large was called to the chair , and appropriately opened the meeting by impressing upon them the necessity of all true democrats uniting their energies together for the purpose of accomplishing the object for which the meeting was convened , I Mr . M ' Cartney , of Liverpool , moved the first resolution , calling upon them to unite their energies in order to procure the restoration of the Welch martyrs and
Ellis to their native land , and spoke at great length on the moral and political character of our banished brethren , and the inhuman and unjust treatment they were a * , present suffering for no other cause but their fidelity to fhe people , and their opposition to tyrannyj and concluded a Jong and powerful appeal by calling upon the meeting never to rest satisfied until they had caused ] the restoration of those good and true men , and jtbe establishment of those prinoiples which these men were ever foremost in advocating . Mr . Me Cartney , during a long address , was loudly applauded . ( The resolution Was seconded by Mr . Abel Cook | and unanimously carried . Mr . Rouse then moved , "That a committee consisting of the following persons be appointed to
draw up the memorial ; vis . Messrs . Me Cartney , Large , and Clark . Mr . Arnold seconded the resolution , which was carried without dissent . Mr . Bol-^ well , of Bath , moved the next jresolution , and was greeted with loud approbation , land after a few remarks on the object of the meeting , moved tbe following resolution .
