CHARTIST VICTIMS . TO TH 5 EDIIOB OF THB HOB . THSBM ^* JlB . Deab Sis—As I pernsed the Leeds Intt&igenctr of Saturday last , -which was kindly Vent me by Mr . Oaatler , happened to nn (* the followir ^ paragraph in the Parliamentary Intelligence i— } "BGOseof Lords , Monday , JcnelS—lord WhsmcliSe moved the second leading of the Milbank Prison ith © PenitentiaTy ) Bio . The Noble Lord said it was a remarkable fact , that prisoners in this | Penitentiary icmained generally in good health for a abort time ; if however , they vrere kept longer in . cosunement in it tfeey became deceased . It was the intention of the learners of the present Bill to remove from time to time the Millbank priBonerB to fhtprissn at F £ NTOTiviLLE . The Bill vraa read a second time . " : There , Chartists of Great Britain ! irho frill now , deny thehnmanityof Lord WhsmcUffe , and the government of -which h » forms & part ? ¦
It may not be known to the Chartist public that a large number of persons -who -were tried at the late Special Commission held at Stafford , were afterwards removed te Milbank Penitentiary ; among the rest my friend Joseph Xinney , a warmhearted , sterling , and hardworking t ) aartist , -who has been very useful at Bilston , Dudley , and the colliery " districts ; and although they seem to have forgotten his services , ( as is generally the case "when a man is imprisoned , ) 2 trust that the people of England -will not allow him , and our other victims now in the Penitentiary , to be taken to that damnable den called PentonviUe Model Prison , to
be either murdered or driven mad , without making an effort to deliver them . Let us have no more nonsense such as * ' three cheers for the "Victims , " and such like fofjgan J Set io work now in geod earnest . Here are some of Dsr best men about to be destroyed . Remember that already there is one murdered man who was a Stirling Chartist . Ashley died last tveeei and should others be removed to Pentonville , we ahall probably never hear of them again . Remember th « iron masks and other instruments of torture , -which ; forma part of the roles of this worse than French Bastille , and then ask yourselves what is your duty on this occasion 1
in conclusion , Mr . Editor , I trust you will publish a list of ail Chartist prisoners , where confined , sentence , number of family , residence of their wives , fee ., as numbers of our friends in London seem desirous of assisting those who require their aid . i 1 was yesterday informed that Robert Wilde , of Mottram , now in Knuisferd House of Correction , has left a wife and two children , who are in a state of utter destitnuen . This is too bad ; and in the earnest hope that the people will eo their duty , I am , Yodtb truly , Gsokoe Whits . Queen ' s Prison , June 20 th , 1843 .

. REPEAL OF THE UNION . H Ijlelakd for the Irish" ] What a talisman is contained in those four vrords i What an array of opposing interests , conflicting purposes , and antagonistic principles < lotaey put in operation ! And jet how fair , how reasonable , and how just are they ! They involve amply the one principle of right against -wrong—of power against right—of fraud against honesty—of » nation against a faction .
As we proceeed with the consideration of this great and mighty question , we feel oar responsibility increasing as the agitation progresses . ) The state of Ireland now presents s picture , not only novel in those days , but unlike anything to be found in the whole history of the -world . It is folly to deny that although no force has been used , the two countries are at open war ; and upon the issue depends more than seems yet to have entered into the conceptions of many of our friends .
When we read the bold and significant addresses of Mr . CCchotbll to a mercurial people , npon whom they axe calculated to make a powerful impression ; likely , from their sarcasm , and vengeance-breathing tone , to exdtfl them to deeds of almost instantaneous madness ; and when we find such a people still satisfied to rest tamely under their several maladies —the causes , the nature , and the consequences of which are so graphically described to them , — it evinces an amount of individual oontroul over National Mind which has never been exhibited before J
Upon the other hand we find the Ministerial party blocking up the country with war-ships , and overspreading the land with & military force ; while the same enthusiasm which is to be found in the unarmed Irish peasantry is far from distinguishing the armed invaders . In this stave of things we naturally look , to the Press and to the Representatives of the people in
Parliament , for some solution of this political novelty But so far from finding anything satisfactory from cither of these sources , we merely gather from the persevering ignorance and obtaseness of the former and from the reckless consistency of the latter , that shonld the Union be Repealed , England thus shorn of her fair proportions will owe her weaknessshould weakness follow—to her Press and her Parliament .
We can readily understand and account for the breathless interest and anxiety manifested for the isiuo of this straggle by the whole Chartist people , who see in it the recognition of their own sacred principle of self-government . We can understand too , and we can honour , the adherencylto principle which makes our Chaxtist friends watchful and suspicions of O'Comjell . They have certainly had cause in byegone times to make them doubtful ; and his present conduct , on the supposition of sincerity , they are unable rightly to appreciate . They conclude—and with great appearance of reason—that
hi 3 rejection of the Chartists' aid is proof that O'Coxsell has no purpose to succeed ; and that he waits hut a convenient [ opportunity to place the question ii « abeyance and make merchandise of Irish credulity . We see the feeling whence this rises ; and we repeat that we honour ! that feeling ; for it is the feeling of honest men indignant at injustice , and at whatsoever ma . y perpetuate its reign . But are our friends quite snre that they take a sufficiently enlarged view of the entire field J Repeal , as things now stand , is no child ' s play i question 3 It requires a master-mind to grasp its whole positioD ,
and to arrange its forces for the peaceful combat . No man can doubt Mr . CCoxxell ' h competency . His is a giant mind—an intellect that Bees more at a glance , than common men in a whole life time . We are disposed , therefore , to give him sea room ; and not to press him hastily or too heavily . As we said last weei , so we now ¦ repeat : we desire to give every man credit ifor the best motives by which he can be actnated ; and we make Mr . O'Cohkell no exception . Posably he may have in view some stroke of policy which we < lo not yet see , and which may sufficiently excuse
the apparent suicidal course he ia pursuing . Mr O'Hjggixs well ssjb : ** with the means , or intended means of Repealing the Union , none but the initiated staff are yet acquainted . " But we can by no means agree with Mr . O'Hiqgiks in the opinion that theBe means are the very first thing ibat ought to hare been generally divulged . On the contrary , we can think of many . circumstances which might make it a first duty , of a leader to keep back this information till the precise moment when his own judgment tells him it may
be given safely ; and even to hazard the good opinion of the hasty rather than give reasons for Ms conduct , when those reasons may involve the safety of Ms cause , or the practicability of the means contemplated . Lastly , we remind our friends , as we have done before , that Daniel O'Cosneil is not Ireland ; hut that IRELAND dejukbs Repeal and Ireland is in earnestj 3 Whatever ' of disposition there might be in O * Coshell to evade the push , the possibility of doing so grows daily lees ! We appiy to this c&be , Jhe excellent paraljel reasoning of CHigoixs : —
a Some people have goue so far as to ! say that the Catholic laity pj « their jaith to the sleeve of the pne&t , by whom they arc led blindfold : Nevertheless , should any Catholic priest deviate but one single E * . epfrom the crted which ihe poorest layman

believes to ^ , true ; let him give up but one iota of that creec ^ for ! the purpose of conciliation or expediency , sr ^ d the ; poorest and most ignorant layman wpuKj n 0 longer confide in him ; would no longer «*" . ow him frwould no longer trust him ; but would iirmly abide by the creed he was taught ; and pity , in the priest , the frailties of human nature . The poor fellow ' s heartwould sink within him ; and he who would a few . minutes before suffer a thousand bullets to pass through his body sooner than allow the priest of his choice to be molested in any manner , would , in such * n event , remain firm in his creed and leave his fallen spiritual leader to his fate . "
This is jost in point . Repeal is the political creed of Ireland ; and , iheugh O'Connell should reocede to-morrow , not a jot would he carry with Mm , either priests or people . They would hav e the Repeal for themselves ; they would get it by themselves ; and they would pity and despise O'Connell in his dotage . No man knows this better than O'Consteix . He is quite aware of it . He knows that there is no retreat for him , And , if any man will read his speech , at Clare , given on our sixth page , he will perceive that he knows exactly his position , and has made up his mind to it .
Whatever doubts we may have entertained as to the policy of Mr . O'Connell upon all former Repeal ebullitions , he has recently cut all ground of suspicion from under the most sceptical . And now we change pur tone from that of anticipated failure through deceit , to one of admonition . We have before expressed our belief that those jamping articles which have recently appeared in the Times were bat decoy ducks to arrest the attention of tho assailed , while the assailants were completing the machinery for suppressing the Repeal agitation . If we couple the altered tone of this garrulous old lady with the stand-s'ill policy announced by Sir James Graham , the suspicious return of the Orange alien Lords to
their conquered estates , and their affected respect for national : prejudices by the abandonment of their annual ; festering Orange demonstrations , we can have no doubt that such was the object with which the conciliatory articles in the Times were written . It is a curious fact that while the sagacious Editor of that Journal could not , some few weeks ago , learn from any quarter , north , south , east , or west , neither ' from " the communicative traveller , " nor " the sagacious resident , " a single practical grievance of which the Irish could justly complain , we should find in the Times of Wednesday last , the grievance" of cottier tenants being ousted , and thereby rendered reckless , set forth as a "National Malady , requiring immediate correction . "
Leaving the Times to the pleasing reflection that its virulence towards Ireland and every thing Irish j has sown the seeds of disaffection in that country towards everything English , we now pass on to a consideration of Mr . O'Co . nnell's position . It ever has been the fate of the sincere friends of Democracy to be prematurely hurried into a direction of public opinion by the over sealous , the over cunning , the thoughtless , or the reckless . The cause of Chartism has suffered more from the indiscretion ; of its own friends , than all other causes . We trust that Mr O'Connell . while
he stands firmly to his object , will not be dragged into any premature step whereby the whole cause may be perilled . The people of both countries having long suffered under the tyranny of class legislation , can surely afford to fold their arms and smile , through one campaign , at the polished steel which their discretion and peacefulness may render harmless . A civil war , once commenced , may be carried on for years , and ultimately result in the further subjugation of the working classes ; leaving no other moral behind than that justice cannot be based on blood ; whereas , a triumph gained by moral dignity
over physical force leaves upon record the imperishable fact , that moral power , when judiciously used , is unconquerable ! The means of carrying on this peaceful agitation for a Repeal of the Union is placed in the hands of the Irish people , from the fact that the whole provisions of that country become on such an occasion one consolidated store for the maintenance of the peaceful army ; while in England the dependance of the working classes upon the daily caprice of the capitalist to amrtlny them mast « ver tarn tho bcBt intended moral display of any duration into a physical outbreak or
depredatory war , in which burglars , thieves , and pickpockets will practise their favourite pursuits , and thus afford the opportunity of branding Char * tism with murder , rapine , and destruction of property . We but require to see the thing done ; we do not require to run the chance of losing it , by seeing it too hastily attempted . Mind , when as unanimous as it appears to be in Ireland , is like the load stone , acquiriog strength by use . We therefore abBtain from asking Mb . O'Connell to same the day , the week , or the month , when it will bo safe to divulge the completion of his machinery . He
is upon the defensive ; and must be much , if not wholly , governed by the actB of others . When the several / Spanish Generals who preceded Espakteko in command of the Spanish army , had failed , either through ignorance or the influence of foreign gold , and when the present Regent assumed the command , he carried on defensive war , and was laughed at by the English press for Mb cowardice and supinenecs , until at length , when the success of his plan of warfare had achieved for him the highest
dignity that his country could confer , his revilers upon a sudden turned round and became his eulogists . In an undertaking like the present , one false step may cause utter ruin ; and it is therefore we caution Mr O'Connell against allowing the uses which will be made of the : Arms Bill by the select magistrates and the visiting Orange noblemen , to drive the people of Ireland even into a war of resistance , being well convinced that if possible the Irish people will be compelled to fight whether they like it or not .
We entirely agree with that part of Mr . 0 Consob ' s letter , -which we publish in the present number wherein he deprecates any Foreign interference in tho settlement ef Irish questions . We havo no doubt that this caution proceeded from the announcement of three French gentlemen having accompanied Ma . O'Connell through the County of Clar « . We have as little doubt that the ominous fleet now stationed at Cove and in other Irish ports , arises from an apprehension in the mind of our rulers that France , thirsting for revenge , would seize the opportunity of a civil war in Ireland to land an auxiliary force and arms , whioh the
recipients would have no delicacy about registering according to : the provisions of the Arms Bill . For ourselves we } have ever opposed the mixing up of our great national questions with " Foreign polioy ; " and to-morrow , crushed as we are beneath the yoke ol domestic domination , we would , if compelled , — with all our religious hatred of war—exchange the pen for the broad sword to resist the interference of Foreign mercenaries , come from what nation they may , as pretended invaders of those olas 3 privileges against which we struggle with all our strength , but which , bad as they are , we would not exchange for Frenoh sway or Russian despotism .
We heed' but little the rabid denunciation of Ms . O'Connell by the Tory press of England . It was as violent in its denunciation of American " traitors , " until the Colonial slave became a free citizen and . that haughty monarch , Gkobgb III ., was compelled to receive at Court , as Ambassador from Free America , the very man who bnt & short time before was designated a " traitor . " Again , when England was in arms to
resist the 'introduction of Jacobinism , and when the Englishjpress teemed with abuse of Napoleon as the leader of that principle , we find the English Attornet-General , in a few months after this denunciation , compelled to prosecute Peltieh for a libel npon the character of Napoleon , a British jury instructed toj return a verdict of guilty against the accused , and a British jury foolish enough to obey the command . Again , when the magician ' s wand had transformed the " Emperor pt the world" into a

British prisoner , and located him upon a r ^ k un an iron jailer , the former protegee of tb ; English Government was bespattered in hvs irjsfortunes by the ribaldry of the English press and left helpless by the English ATTOBNET-GBNEBi ^ ; So will it be with the " traitor O'Connbll . " Let him but preserveMsloyaUy to his ' country by maintaining hia peaceful position to the last , and for every blow struck at the head of an Irishman let him return a double thrust at the
sinews of the enemy ; let him hit the invader in the Stock Exchange until the supporters of Irish connexion come to learn that even " Union , " like gold dust , may be purchased at a too dear a rate ; and then perhaps" the traitor" O'Conkell may be commanded to the presence of her Majesty to receive a commission to open the Irish Parliament as her representative . And ho will then be lauded by the entire *• loyal" press as a consistent , firm , and persevering patriot !
To . cavil just now with every word of Mr . O'Connell , or with the bluster of somo of his senseless supporters would be an injustice to the people of Ireland , which we trust wo are incapable of practising ; . We have watched the progress of events with intense anxiety ; we have chronicled the most important . features of those events ; and we shall still continue , notwithstanding his rejection of our proffered service , and the foolish denunciation of some of his supporters , to aid , assist , comfort and abet him in all his legal and constitutional struggles for the achievement of his country ' s liberty ; for Ireland , because we love her for her virtues and the wrongs she has endured ; and for England , because we feel convinced that Ireland free , the freedom of Englishmen must follow .
It must now be understood by all with half brains , that one of three things must happen . There must be a sacrifice . Either the Ministers must sacrifice the Union , O'Connell must be saerificed s or the Irish priesthood must ; be sacrificed ; for let it not be for one moment imagined , that the devotion , even to Mr . O'Connell , by those who have such entire confidence in him , would not be succeeded , in case of a retreat , by reprobation stronger even than the warmth of that devotion . Terminate how the struggle may , the people will require a
satisfactory account from their priests ; and should suspicion take possession of the popular mind , the asseverations of the Irish press , strong as they might be in support of Mr . O'Connell , would be lost in the word of the Pastor delivered from the altar ! The Irish people are less governed , or even influenced , by the newspaper press than any other people ia the known world : while each jparish has its own gazette , in whose word the hearers have more confidence than if an opposite version was published through all the papers in the empire . Such then is our admonition ; such are our fears ;
such our hopes ; and such the probable result that would follow a failure of the movement . We view the hopes and the fears , the strength and the weakness of Ireland with the deepest interest . At the same time we anticipate a Government onslaught upon the friendsi of freedom in England , should such a course become politic and necessary , as an example to ihe United Irish . For suoh a result we trust we shall be also prepared ; and ever ready , regardless of threatening danger , to discharge those duties which public approbation has assigned to us with zeal , with caution , with courage , with prudence , and with fidelity .

THE DUTY OF CHARTISTS IN REFERENCE TO THE REPEAL AGITATION . We are crammed out with letters upon this subject , [ from all quarters ; mostly seeking information and advice . Some of the writers require to know what course we think the Chartists generally should take ; while others—and of these are the greater numberwish for our opinion as to their joining " the Repeal ranks , " and hazarding the insult of rejection ; and all ask us to state fully our opinion of this policy of the Repeal Club and its tendency . Nowl to the first matter of inquiry we have a ready
answer ; and we cannot better word it than by citiug the resolution of our Newcastle friends . We are , with them , decidedly " of opinion that the Union of Ireland with Great Britain is inimical to the bjest interests of that country ; and as it was fraudulently accomplished contrary te the expressed wishes of the great majority of the Irish people , we do most heartily concur with that ill-used nation in their ] demand of an immediate Repeal ; and pledge ourselves to use every constitutional means in our power to assist them in procuring , not enly a * domestic parliament , ' but a parliament that will be
a complete reflex of the whole people , as the only sure guarantee that the people will not again be sold contrary to the inclination of the majority . " This we hold certainly to be the only thing that can make Repeal valuable to the Irish people , or secure u Ireland for the Irish . " We are perfectly aware that O'Connell and the present Repeal Leaders do not how recognize , either practically or theoretically , the great principles of liberty included in the People ' s Charter . We stop not now to argue or cavil about this ; we hold him to be no friend to Ireland who would do so . It may be absolutely
necessary for Mb . O'Connell and the Repeal leaders , to take precisely the course they are now taking ; it' is evident that they think it is so ; and , if it be ^ that may probably be their reason for refuting to amalgamate the Repeal and the Chartist movements ; at all events that must be a sufficient reason for Chartists not "joining the repeal ranks . " We havej never thought it # ood policy in them to do so ; and certainly cannot recommend it now We were not sorry for the " rap on the knuckles " that ( O'Connor got , as we hope it may teach him to be less ardent and more calculating . Chartism , of
itself involves Repeal ; because Repeal is in justice due , to England ; as well as Ireland ; but Repeal does not , of necessity , involve Chartism . We cannot , therefore , give up the more comprehensive for the less comprehensive assertion of the principle of right : we cannot leave the greater to take up the less . The most effectual aid that we can give the Repeal movement , is to press forward our own agitation contemporaneously Let no man suppose that we advise the merging of the Charter in Repeal . In the Charter we see that whioh must of its own nature involve Repeal , and every other measure of full justice for the people ; in Repeal we see that which
may , or may not , in the first instance , bring justice to the people , though we cannot doubt that the improved moral and intellectual people of Ireland would make it do so ultimately . We say , ¦ then , in reference to "joining the Repeal Ranks , " do no such thing . Go on with your own movement ; strengthen your own position ; make all fair and consituuonal advances to the Charter , and in the meantime give all aid to your Irish brethren in their struggle far the minor measure ; and let not their efforts for the lesser good , shamo yours for the greater . Let the patriotic strife be one of amity and love ; so shall wo aid each other . Give us the Charter , and we give Repeal to Ireland ; while if Ireland obtain Repeal before us , her gallant sons will bring their new-born strength to aid us in the
common cause . These being our views , our friends will see that we regard with much indifference the matter which has so heart-burned some of them , the rejection of our aid by O'Connell and the ; Repeal club . The simple question 1 b , whether they wish the thing they seek Time only can determine this . If they do , there may bo reasons wnich we cannot see to justify them in their course ; if they ; do not , we shall have a terrible revenge , withou 6 our stirring in the matter , taken for us by the Irish people , when the cheat Fhalllbe discovered .

Thimble Rigging an © Gambling in the Vicab's Cboft , Leeds . J—A Churchwarden of Leeds calls oitr attention to the practice which has now obtained for sortie lime in the Vicar ' s Croft , Leedst frequently on I market days , and especially on Saturday evenings , token a number of petty gamblers meetlto practice thimble rigging and other * ' low" games . He describes these gathersings as being ^ attended by numbers of youth , some of them of tender age , who are thus inilia ~ ted in the first step of roguery , and started in the way to become confirmed thieves , and pick pockets . He asks , what are the Police about ? Is there no occupation far them here ? Let the Market Committee see toil . —
i Ambrose Tomlinson writes to say that Mr . Tattersail , of Lancaster Castle , is but little belter off than Cooper and Richards at Stafford ; especially as to the matte \ of correspondence with friends ^ with whom he is only allowed to communicate by letter once in sfo months . He will not be allowed to receive a leitet till the middle of ¦ September r and then only one ! He , therefore wishes parties not to icrile to him . W . Ua / wsoh , Bradford . —The question is not for ' gotten . He will soon see a plan propounded for " the accomplishment of the object nearest his hear ! . " j W . Ellis , Bridp 3 rt . — We can hardly say ; but believe not \
Moses Simpson , of Hanlev , writes to say that Mrs . Ellis has not yet heard from Mr . Colguhoun , of Glasgow , nor from any of the Glasgow friends , though she published her address in the Star of April 2-2 , in accordance with their reques t . Has any one been [ sent to her , and the letter miscarried ? Shelis anxious to learn . E . Chketam . — Won't do . John Hahbek , Darlington . — We cangive no ad ' vice on the subject . lie must exercise his own judgement . London Chartist Magazine . —Persons in the country wishing to obtain this work are requested to give the name of the London book-agent , Mb . Watson , 5 , Paul ' s Alley , Paternoster-row , to
the country bookseller of whom they may order the work , to [ prevent disappointment—and if they find any difficulty in obtaining the work through one bookseller to order it of another . The next number will be ready for delivery on the 1 st of July . All Communications to the Chartists of Kidderminster , shoulh be addressed to Henry Crouch , ' Dudley street J Kidderminster , Worcestershire . Mrs , Ellis desires to ( hank the kind Chartists of Nottingham for the receipt of 5 j . through the medium of Mn . James Sweet . Robert Allan . —We are unable to find room for many speeches sent us that have been delivered : he therefore will see the impossibility of giving
his , which has \ not been delivered . Routes op Lecturers—Again we notice that all " routes sent here , to ensure publication , must be signed by the sub-secretary of the locality , or district , wher $ the arrangements are made for . We will not i / i future publish any that may be sent without such signatures . It is not right that any locality should be visited by a lecturer , unless he has corresponded with them , and ms . de mutual arrangements . Considerable inconvenience has arisen to portions of the Chartist body from unarranqed-for visit * , which we har ) e partially caused by printing unauthorised " routes . " We shall do so no more . F . W . Simeon , Hi , Temple-street , Bristol , wishes
the secretaries ef the Association at Merthyr to send him a tetter per first post , with their ac dress , as he has something , of importance to communicate , j Jordan Chadwick . —FFe can hardly understand his question . Wfte r e is the sign he speaks oft Is tt over their meeting plaee ? If so , it had better read i " Chartists' Meeting Room . " In corresponding it must be remembered , that distinct local bodies cannot , as such , correspond with each other ; and therefore all correspondence necessary between [ Rochdale and other places must be conducted by their respective secretaries ^ not officially as secretaries , but as individuals . A non-attention to this point will subject the parties to very severe penalties . We hope to see this
state of things remedied ; and the numerous risks by which the combined efforts of the people to obtain justice are now surrounded , entirely removed . This can be done , by getting our society enrolled under the Benefit Societies ' Act ; and this \ enrollment we can have by uniting the Land Question with the assertion of general principle . We can then have a society with branches , governed by distinct local officers , who can correspond with each other , and act in every f way necessary to carry out the lawful objects \ ef the society , without inconvenience , or risk of penal statute . We are at present engaged in concocting a plan of organisation which will secure to the Chartists these
immense advantages . As soon as it is in a condition to be paid before the members ef the Chartist Association , we shall submit it to them . Mr . Pitketh ly , and his American Information . —Thursday ' s ' post brought us the following note from Mr . Pitkethly in answer to the notice given in last ] week ' s Star , of a strong desire existing for the publication , in a cheap and accessible form , of his " Emigrant ' s Constant Companion . " j We fully approve of the course suggested by Mr . P . ; for the agents of the Star and other friends to procure lists of subscribers It would not [ be reasonable to expect Mr . Pitkethly to go to the expense of printing , un'less he had before ^ him a prospect of re-payment The lists , when ready , should be sent to him ; or the agents might write to say how many copies of the work they , would engage to take . Here is Mr . P . * s letter . —
Huddenfleld , Slat June , 1843 . TO THE EDITOR OP THE NORTHERN STAR . Sear Sir , —Yourjnote to correspondents in theater of last week has drawn my attention to the desire which exists among your correspondents that the Notes of my Tour through a portion of the United States , which have appeared in your co ' umna , should also be published ia a bsok form . I have also been flattered by many pressing requests verbally , and by letter , made to myself , to the same end . j It must be evident to all who peruse those Notes , that they have been thrown together In great haste , and under very unfavourable circumstances . In fact , they are badly ; arranged , and abound with tautology . This , of course , in any future publication , could be remedied ; and if I should engage in such publication , ahall be attended to .
I would recommend in the mean time , and before any additional trouble is taken , or expense incurred , that subscription lists be fixed in all places where j the Star is sold , or such other places as may be considered eligible , where parsons might have an opportunity to place their names for one or more copies . By these means it will speedily be Been whether there are a sufficient number desirous of having the book to cover the expense of publication . If so , no time will be lost in putting it into band . The work can be brought out in threepenny or sixpenny numbers ; as this plan might suit poor persons better . An expression of jtbeir wishes , on the part of the public , will be valuable for the guidance of those concerned . '
I am confident that no friend of mine would desire that I should hazird a loss in publishing The " Notes of inyjTour , " and "Instructions to Emigrants , " after [ having already incurred so considerable an expense , and otherwise made sacrifices to obtain the information I possess . The reason for p ! : cing those matters upon paper wiii therefore bo obvious . | I am , dear Sir , I Yours very faithfally , j L . PlTKETHLT . P . S . —In order to prevent disappointment to my numerous correspondents throughout the country , yon will perhaps be kind enough to allow me to stats that I intend to leave home for Scot-¦
land in a few days , and that I shall not return home for a fe'r weeks . Persons , therefore , desiring copies of the rules of the " British Emigrants * Mutual Aid Society , " and who would apply to me , had better apply to Mr . Crabtree , No . j 3 , Broad-street , Halifax , the Secretary of the Society , who will gladly furnish them with any information they may require .

TO THE COLLIERS OF LANCASHIRE . Friends , —We have the honour to inform you that we were on the 10 th of June , 1843 , at a Delegate Meeting of the Miners Association , holden at Newcastle appointed to perambnlata Lancaablre for the purpose of laying before you the objects and purposes of thei Miner , Society , and form branches ia every village , town , w colliery in your county . The leading objects of oni society are to diminish the hours of labour , and to obtain the highest possible amount of wages for the hoars we may work .
We know t&at it is only by Union that we can accota . plish Buck a purpose ; therefore we request your cordial co-operation with us : for we know that our interests are so intimately connected , that it is impossible for one district to be oppressed without the other feeling the effects . We know that it ia impossible for us to gain our rights and liberties and maintain them , if you ate not also made participants with us . We wish therefore to provide work and wages for every man at his own home , or in his own county ; so that we shall not have to wander up and down tbe country like vagabond ! , taking each others employment ; contending one with another as to whioh can sell his labour for the least money .
Several of the most innaentaal mining districts of Englaad and Scotland are now enlisted under the banner of Union . We trust the day is not far distant when the colliers of England will formone link in the grand chain of " Union" which is to extend from John-O Groats House to the Land ' s End in Cornwall , and to the most distant corner of Wales . Where in the po ^ ei that could prevent the colliers from occupying toeb just position , had we aa union of this sort estab > lisbed ? Brethren , we are entirely strangers to your district We hops , however , that the readers of the Star , n » mutter what their calling , will render us all the assiav aaee they possibly can , ia the glorious caase . Oat success will be for the interest ef the public atlarea .
We propose to commence our labours at Oldhajg about the twenty-seventh of the present month . Abj place desirous of our services "will greatly oblige mbj writing a note stating the same , or any other infoq ^ v tion addressed to us , to the care of tba agents of ^ Star , at Oldham or Wigan ; and we pledge oursalm that they shall be duly attended to . If any loi « of freedom will be ao kind as to call a public meeting of the colliers at Oldham , on Monday tig 3 rd of July , either in the Chartist Hall , or in anj other public place * most convenient , and certify ths same in the next number of the Star , they will render a great service to the cause of suffering humanity , and greatly serve the society we have the honour to represent
Now is the time , or never , for the colliers I See Xoid Howick's speech in the House of Commons on % repeal of the coal duty . We are now beginning to tw noticed in the Parliament House ! He wishes to let Government loose upon us ; but we bid defiance ta both him and Govern moot ; for " Union and Pesoe * is our motto , and " Law and Order" oar watchword . Brethren , arise ! look after your own rights . Tfie cruel task-masters fetl that we have adopted the right plan for abridging their unholy power ; and they ate trying all the means that evil ingenuity can invent to get you within the meshes of the law , by plunging you into a premature strike ! but laugh tofscoru those who wish this to delude yon 11
Look before you leap ! Calculate well where yog are ; what it is yon are urged to do ; and take stock of the means you are possessed of , to do it ! Be wary ! B » prudent . ' Organise yourselves . Get into a position that you can know what the men of the North an about ; and they know What you are about : be eo that you can understand the feelings of yeur brethren all over the kingdom , before you even give the idea of a strike a resting-place in your mind . Better to "beat the ilia we have" a short time longer , and orgaoin ourselves for their complete eradication , than ensure failure by premature action . Caution and prudence it essential to oar cause ! Dear Brethren , —Our sincere prayer is that onr mission maybe a blessing to you and to generation ! yet unknown . Daar brethren . We are your humble Servants , David Swallow , Daniel Thompson .
