      succeeded in dissatisfying all parties at horns , it has l-en abundantly * ueeessful in causing the foreign enemies «{ Britain to rejoice and be glad . So long indeed as the aefcao vledged distress of tke working classes was likely jo l » eonfined / wittun the narrow limits of oar domestic p diey , so long "was that distress matter of unimportance to the cunning monarch who wields the French sceptre ^ t the moment it -was revealed that the aid or the Chelsea Pensionsn might be required to keep the cry of Imnger in subjection , -while her Majesty and her Mini * jteaV ere revelling in enjoyment daring the recess , did Xoni * Philippe discoTer that the beretofore snbsidJiing En gland must henceforth , in eeoseqaence of her mined Exchequer , rely npon the physical force ol foreign jafions to snppress the growing discontent arising out of domestic misrule .

      *• Tarn about is fair play , says the English Minister Yo the Sag of the Barricades ; toe have exhausted oar resources for the purpose of upholding your title to the Jhrone of France , and now , according to all the rulet of good faith and " reciprocity , " we bjaTe a claim upon yon to uphold oar ascendancy at home . True , Hz . Pitt and the statesmen of his day were actuated by a double motive in pntSng down the French Revolution ; firstly , by their duty to kings generally ; ana secondly , lest the example set in France should be followed by the English people ; and if the interests of France and

      Snglaad were so inseparably united in 1792 , as to justify the expenditure of so much English blood and English money not yet made , the same reasoning , with a mere change of circumstances , would hold good in 2813 : that is , if the rage for Republicanism in Francs in 1782 justified the English Minister of that day in expending the country ' s resources to suppress it , surely , sadatis mutandis , and , by a parity of reasoning , we hare u * w a justifiable demand cpon the French Exchequer , for the purposa of suppressing the same spirit in England , which , if not silenced would aet a bad example to Fiance and to the world . "

      we would modestly ask if a greater coincidence of opinion coald possibly exist than does between that expressed by us on the 7 th of September , and that expressed by La Preste at the close of the month . Did "we not prophesy the demand npon Prance to aid England in carrying out her policy 1 and did we not say that Louis Philippe would bleed sA every pore rather than see a Repnblio established in Spain , or the Union between Great Britain and Ireland repealed 1 Bnt we said more io the same-article . We said thiE t " who viU venture to assert thai the invasion of Ireland ig an army of Frenchmen , may not be at the present moment snaiter of diplomatic consideration ? That the question © fa Repeal of fhe . Union ib to be ushered forth as one of paramount importance to French diplomatists , we gather the following article which appeared in the Journal des Debais , within tfas last week : —

      " Every one must have remarked , that since the Queen of Ingland , in proroguing the Parliamet , expressed in Ike most explicit terms her indignation against the attempts made to produce a dismemberment of the United Kingdom , there bare been less meetings iB Ireland , many less monBteT speeches from O'Connell , and many less hurrahs for Repeal . The Queen's -speech has deprived him of his last chanoe of any longer abusing the simplicity of his auditory . Daring nvenfl months he had daily repeated to his credulous countrymen that the Queen was with them , that she wished te gr&Bt Repeal , bat that she was the prisoner of a Saxon Government and Parliament ; that they 'would sot suffer the voice of har faithful Irish

      subjects to reach her ; that it was In the Queen herself they Wflre fighting ; that their cause was her own ; that it was to deliver her from slavery ; that it was to restore to her the free exercise of her prerogative that they leagued against the Saxon . But the Queen net the Parliament expressly to denounce and energetically to blame the agitation tax BepeaL What does Mr . CConsell do ? Be says 'Jt is sot the Queen who spoke it was her Ministers , who spoke by her mouth ; the Queen is not free . ' Tain subtleties ! The people will no longer believe it Sere commences the embarrassment of the agitator ; he is in a dilemma where he cannet remain without danger , or leave without committing an act of T" * rinf « m . . He sees higiwplf at the head of an

      army whose Dumber astounds him , and whose force threatens to ! "fi " gy ^ 'fr Tiitn » Aif . Formerly he called ¦ pinc riTign te pass , reviews , and , as he aaid , to count heads ; at present he confesses that he only holds them to suffer the boiling courage of the Irish people to evaporate , who are asking him every day when he will lead them against the Saxons . Thus Mr . O'Connell , in place of ag i tating , seeks but to calm ; ie only wishes to find an issue to giv » a passage to the waves he has confined , and by which he fears to be carried off " So one better than riinreilf comprehends this critical position : he knows better than any other that the first step made towards violence would be his destruction , and at the same "time a sanguinary repression . He knows

      well that the Repeal of the Union Is an insane dreambe knows that England , which is the stronger , will not grant ' it , because it would make her descend to the rank of countries of the third order—he knows that not only it would be the ruin of Baeland , but that it would also be the ruin of Ireland , because the Irish people , in their present condition , are incapable of living and walking alone ; bat it is because he knows all this , and knew it beforehand , that a heavy responsibili ty weig hs npon his head . Ah ! we comprehended and admired Mx . O'Connell when he agitated tig countrymen for the cause of emancipation , and , when he -organized over the whole surface of Ireland that vast association which opened to the Catholics and

      Dissenter * the entrance to the na tional representation . But emancipation was something practicable ; the half of England wished it with Ireland ; it could be realized legally and pacifically , and the proof is , that it was ae . But Repeal . the thing is impossible . And nevertheless Mr . O'Connen preaches it as the only and last remedy to ail the evils of Ireland—as a panacea which ought to Cure all the physical and moral wounds of that unfortunate country . ' 'You have no bread , I will give yon BepealJ no clothing , theBepeaU no shelter , the Repeal ! Remain quite some time longer , and I promise you * T >» n have it . He promises , and he knows he « ani » t give it But the people , feed of waiting , and waiting in vain , win not remain quiet . They have been taught to regard this dream as a reality ; they have

      been told that Repeal would make them a nation ; that withRepeal their fields would become fruitful , and their towns prosperous ; their Chief and their priests have told them so , and they believed them : the fools who could play with the passions of the people with impunity , and who are now afraid that these deceived and Irritated masses should tarn on them , and S 3 y , 'On what day , at Trhat hoar , ' shall we be free ? When shall we ie a nation' What are yon waiting for that you do nos lead U 3 against the Saxon ? ' O'Connen neither knows what to answer , or what to do . He is like the Tn ^ nvn -wh o created a monster and gave it life , but here the creature revolts against its creator , and says—* Sufficiently long have I been your slave . ; in yoar turn be mine , aDd march . '

      « This is the present situation of Ireland ; it is sad , and can inspire but sombre anticipations . "There are , we know , evils to be r emedied , but the Irish themselvas appear to oppose an obstacle to aU reasonable reform , Mr . O'Connell has ventured his stake upon a dangerous card ; he has placed Ireland between Repeal and revolufiun . Repeal he cannot have ; and as to revolution , if it were attempted , which God forbid , the attempt would infallibly coneiude in an unfortunate and impotent revolt " To those who are unaccustomed to the mode and manner in which ministerial journals prepare the way for ministerial action the above article would present no canse for alarm ; bnt io ns who are in the habit of tracing all the acts of governments from

      { his very source , we recognise in this anti-Irish grade , the note of preparation intended to precede the developement of ihosa plans agreed npon at the Conference of Monarchs . Apart from this foreign note of preparation , we gather gloomy forebodings from the smdied sHeaee of out minister , and the appearance of a large fleet in the harbour of the Cove of Cork . In an undertaking vrhich muBi necessarily require great military Bkffl there is no donbt that all the warlike preparations will be entmsted to the Duke of Wbijjsctom , while from his well known policy of a word and a blow , that execution should follow npon the very heels of design , it is not at aU unlikely that even Sir Rokkt Peei himself maybe kept in entire ignorance of the

      intentions of the Pake . Enough however peeps throngh the curtain to eonvince ns that a conspiracy is on foot J that a tremendous blow will be aimed ! that France and England will b& the chief actors in the Tragedy ! and that Spain and Ireland -mil be the Btages " hereon the drama will be acted . We should not be at all astonished to find numerous cases of affitary and police defection in Ireland urged as a reason for an exchange of troops ; and the more especially , a 3 we gather from the press of France thai that country and England are bow unifcedby a

      ¦ olemn League and Covenant j while onr eontemponrie 3 at home would stoutly argue that the ami-• able bearing of France , and the evident hostility of Ireland justified reHanee upon French soldiers , rather than npon native troops j while npon the Principle of exchange our legions may be transported * to Spain , thereto fight the battle of despotism . "We have great reliance , however , npon ihe impmed mind of England , Ireland , Scotland , and ¦ Wales , and we haTe a firm conviction that that mind well organised and judiciously directed will be ; capable of resisting any udjusI interference with the j Wffch of Democratic principles .

      ing and butchery dare not bo revived in the present dissatisfied condition of the working and middling classes of this country . The bugaboo of Jacobinism and republicanism has lost its charm , and that which haunted the prejudiced mind as a hideous hobgoblin , some fifty years ago , has now been transformed , by the system which crushed it ,, into a more sightly thing . While matters are thus progressing in France and England , every town and city in Spain is rising up in armB against the recent usurpers , and the inhabitants throughout the country , are crying for the blood of those tyrants , under whose standard , what remained of the constitution was butchered , and are loudly calling out for a republic . In Spain , that even Napoleon with his conquering army could not

      subdue ; in Spain , desolated by civil war and revolutions following in rapid saocesaion ; in Spain all attempts to foist class ascendancy npon the people has failed ; and with one accord Spaniards cry out for s Republic , as the only means of gathering up the whole strength of the nation for the protection of its liberties ! The eleotions are now going on ; and as far as they h&ve proceeded they furnish ample proof that the bloody Nabvxez ; the soldier-sbootiBg Nasvaxz ; the liberal-institntion-destroying Nab"f ** z ^ the ruffian Nasvaiz , whose bloody deeds affright him from sleeping two successive nights in one house : these eieotioas prove that that usurper is not even the representative of the electoral body , and therefore lacks all the qualities by which eves tyrants justify their rule .

      There has been no country in the world so trodden upon and oppressed by a legion of unrestrained priests as Spain ; and the very fact of Espa&tsbo , who curbed their licentiousness , and would have ultimately crushed their power , still standing in favour with a large majority of the people , proves that Spain is tired of priestcraft , and pants to throw off the remnant of those Bhackles which the Inquisition imposed upon their forefathers .

      THE "RENT" WAR . CORN EXCHANGE CONSISTENCY . " Dos ' t nail his ears to the pump , " is a negative invitation , we presume , under the law to take care that if the job be done , it should be well done ; and never was there a more striking exemplification of the outward and visible agra of a thorough respect for the law than that evinced in a speech recently delivered in the Corn Exchange , by a Mr . Datot , upon the subject of Mr . Conkob ' s recent motion for a manifesto against the payment of "rents , rates , tithes , and taxes . " After a very severe phillipio upon the general principle , Mr . Daukt proceeds : —

      " Never was there a more complete developement of the principle of the bandit than that on which Mr . Connor ' s motion rested . Not pay rents ? Why , as well might a man go Into a shop and take away the property of its owner without paying for it as occupy the house or farm of bis landlord and refuse him his equitable remuneration . Had they sanctioned that principle they would have been no longer the Repeal Association but a banditti . The people of Ireland were as completely under the contronl of the Association as was a good team under the management ot an experienced whip . "

      Now , that's plain reasoning , and comes within the scope ot the meanest understanding . It means that the Repeal Association has set its face against any interference with the question of rents . But let us see what the very next sentence is . Mr . Dadst proceeds : — " He would therefore advise the landlords of Ireland , if they were not destitute of common sense , to lose not a moment in joining the Association , for their interests were deeply at stake . IT WAS THEER DUTY AND BUSINESS TO COilE THERE ; AND HE ADT 1 SED THEM , IF THEY DID NOT BECOME R EPEALERS , TO LOOK TO THEIR RENTS . "

      - If we can understand plain English , this far outstrips Mr . Coroos ' s proposition . The people of Ireland , we are teld , are as completely under the whip of the Repeal Association as ever a team of horses were under the waggoner ' s scourge . The use of the waggoner ' s whip is to make the team perform its " business" and "duty , " and , ergo > if it is the " bnainess" and "duty" of the landlords to join the Repeal Association , it becomes part of the business and duty of the Repeal whip to make them do so , and if not , as Mr . Datjst emphatically says , "LET THEM LOOK TO THEIR RENTS . "

      We believe that it was before Baron Gabbow a man was once tried for committing a rape , aud when the crime was fully proved against him , and upon being called for his defence , he proved that a field of beans belonging to him , npon the road-side , had been for some time subject to the depredations of the village damsels . After having exhausted all threats of prosecution according to law , man-traps ,

      spring guns , and bo forth , he exhibited large placards , declaring that he would ravish the first girl -found trespassing upon his premises . He was as good as his word : lie did ravish the prosecatrix ; but upon proving the notice given in the placard , the Judge directed the Jury to acquit , and told the criminal that , though he had taken ihe very best means of saving hiB bacon , he had taken the very worst means of saving his beans .

      Now , precisely such is cur opinion with respect to the protective influence of Mr . Datot ' s speech . The Association may be ravished , bnt the landlords will find that the saving of Mr . Dauwt ' s bacen will not tend to the saving of their rentB . It would have been much better to have allowed Mr . Conji'Ob ' s motion to have died a natural death than to have given it increased vitality by further discussion .

It is now eighteen months Binoe we prophesied that the 3 ucces 3 of the Tariff would lead to a janotion between Pekl and Russell , or that itB failure would lead to the resuscitation of Whig hope . From its enactment io the present moment , one adverse circumstance or another , has served to buoy up the drooping spirits of Whiggery . England , Ireland , Scotland , and Wales , have been severally hunted for a Whig cratch ; thai forlorn and scattered faction greedily cherishing the hope of party strength out of national dissatisfaction , disquiet , or even

      revolntion . The astounding announcement of M increased prosperity , through improved trade , " added to the rejection of Whig co-operation by the Irish Repealers , has however cut both legs , —commercial distress , and Irish Whig Revolution , —from ander the rotten body ; and , as we are informed by the most able and consistent of our cotemporaries , the Morning Ad vertver , the Whigs , thus commercially and politically disappointed , have reselved upon Bharing the loaves and fishes , u thbt cam , with their Tory brethren ! The following article upon th « subject appeared in the Morning Advertiser of Wednesday last : —

      "An article in the Chronide of Monday last , contains some curious , » r , to say the least , Unking indications of the Whig party- * t wm ** remembered thai , in the course or last week , a ramour was prevalent of overtures having been made by Sir Robert Peel to the leader of the Whi * faction . We fancy the remarks of the Chronide to whlch we alluae may be regarded as bearins on this point Perhaps , indeed , Sir Robert Peel has never entertained the idea for a moment of coalescing with the Whigs . It may , in possibility , b * that he would disdain to do so . But let the country mark the Whigs-how they will pander and pander , to the last , Merer forgetting their old propensities ; throwing over the country , when it suits them , with as much * mw ^ t » fd-ratber with a * much goto de cmw-» noble minds would rush to the coasumsaatiom of

      ar » reckoned nothing , but rubbish ! But let others be surprised ; vet are not We were dismally sensible of whatouRussells are composed ; and wear * free to wn that upon a bet of the . upshot , should Sir Robert Peel be induced to advance the proposition of coalition , we would have staked ourselves to infinity on the manntr in which it would be received . The Whig * all of a sudden discern that then "is an undoubted general revival of trad * andi oommerce ; " that " passing finugj our economical to our social and political condiHoa , tfiit there is a very considerable improvement in ihtfteling of the bulk of the working classes ; " that ? ' Chartism has fallen from fever heat to the freezing jM ^ BJfc . " Mid that while our state Is prosperous to this extent is the

      time to— 'What may the country think 1 Why institute such great measures as Education and general Drainage ! "The whole object ,: however , in alluding to such indications on the put of the Whigs as these , can be simply for the purpose of placing the more credulous part of the community upon their guard . The more sagacious will see through the deception at a glance ; and while execrating the political pwdering , feel nothing but a renewal of that nausea which the Whigs have bo invariably and powerfully excited . Of the consequence of a coalition of the nature adverted to , we imagine there would be but one thought throughout the country . In all ages , and under all disposition of circumstances , it has proved so , that when men

      combine to forfeg * their , principles at the shrine of some political object , treason is the only spirit that presides npon the scene , and that truth and honesty are cast down like vain g » QB to be spurned , but no longer adored . Tha Peel amalgamated with the Bussell tenets in politics , or tb « Russell with the Peel ; and then the issue that would ensue , could there be anything more monstrous ? To prevent " movement" would be the first grand effort ; to place barriers of iron against the principle of progress wonld be the first resolute design . The slidi ng scale might , it 1 b possible , be induced to succomb to fixed duty , and the work of education might be re-attempted under the auspices of a church hierarchy . But as to

      government which the country could endure from such a combination of principles , the idea were villany run mad . We say it in a spirit of the most perfect composure of conviction , that the country could not tolerate the profanity of a PeeWiossell Administration . Under appalling circumstances it has , it is true , been tutored to a state of unexampled forbearance and docility ; but to assume that the first genuine instincts of the British millions would suffer without rebelling against a Government composed of profound despotism and unquestioned treachery , were to assume that the natural laws of the human mind were reversed , and that Britain , boasting of its political freedom , were suddenly sunk , enslaved under the strongest aud the foulest political bondage .

      " If , therefore , the genius of Chartism sleep , let it arouse itself now , when such a prospect of national degradation darkens the horizon ; if , therefore , the liberties and the honour of the country are thus assailed , let not a moment be lost in placing at defiance the menacing array of inauspicious circumstances . " We are of opinion , however , that the rumour it a fiction got up to shew the current of the wind . The nature of public sentiment feeing ascertained , the Whig organ will , doubtless , be as ready to repeat his veering propensity from the left as to it , and be only too bsppy in the chines of an opportunity to lenew the hollow advocacy of riews and opinions which he can shift off with an adroitness peculiar only to Whiggery .

      " But however this may be , we on our part are prepared to stand stanch to the national cause , and to resist to the death the faintest manifestations that may indicate themselves of a Peel and Russell coalition Cabinet "—Merrnng Advertiser . We thank our contemporary for the invitation to arouse . It is true Chartism has slept ; but is now awakened , and prepared to arrest the " national degradation that darkens the horizon . "

      THE ENROLMENT OF THE NEW PLAN OF ORGANIZATION . This has not yet been effected . The Certifying Barrister is ill . He is cenfined with a sore throat . An interview was arranged with him , if well enough , for twelve o ' clock on Thursday . Of course we have not yet heard the result ; but expect to do so , in time for some of our later Editions . The people however can be carrying out the suggestions we offered to them last week . They can be making all preparation . Get the funds together ; and the list of names ready for enrolment , the moment the books and cards are issued . No time will then be lost .

      There iB one point of business to which we must call attention , crowded as we are for space just now . But in this matter the people have begun to work ; and we want to see every portion of the work that all and each have to do carried on systematically and properly . The subject to which we shall now call attention is the sending of funds . We have a General Treasurer . He is also Treasurer to the Victim Fund . To him , and to him alone , ought all monies either for the Executive Committee , or for the General Victim Fund to be sent . Now , this is a

      point ef business that every one ought to attend to . Ou no occasion should it be neglected . Let the payments be made to the Treasurer direct . Then all confusion is avoided . Some , at present , send their monies to this office ; others send to other parties . We wish this not to be . We wish no man to assume an office to which he haB not been appointed ; and we wish every man who has been appointed to office , to have thrown upon him axl the responsibility of his office . Let the people , therefore , Jsee to this . The carrying out of the Plan of Organization

      will mainly depend on themselves : and if they will not observe the common business regulations , they may depend on it that their officers will not long do so . We have drawn attention to this matter at the beginning . We wish all to begin well ; and in no matter is regularity and system so much desired as in the transmission and custody of funds . Get into a lax mode of dealing with them , and we shall soon find all our bnsiness laxly conducted ; observe strict rule and order with the management of these , and the habit will infuse itself into all other portions of our business .

      Every penny , then , for the General Treasurer , either for General Fund , or for the Victim Fund , must be sent to him direct , by an order made payable only to himself . Then he will be clearly responsible for all he receives . Snoa responsibility cannot be thrown upon him , unless this i 9 uniformly done . The address of the General Treasurer is : " F . O'Connor , Esq ., care of Mr . John Cleave , 1 , Shoe-lane , Fleet-street , London . " Let us hope that , in this particular , the sending of funds , all will go right in future .

I have not as yet heard from them . Feargus O'Connob . Scandalous Tbbatment of a Youth . —Mr . Henry Dowell Griffiths , of No . 4 , Philpott Terr * ce , Edgeware Road , London , has sent us . an account of the ¦ inhuman treatment ot a lad by a person calling himself a " gentleman " , of which we subjoin the following particulars : — » Oa Sunday evening , August 20 th ,

      as a poor , fatherless , and labouring youth , named George North , residing at No . 3 , Lower TJxbridgestreet , Kensington Gravel Pits , was passing through « Wise's Fields ' , in company--with his two brothers and an acquaintance , the boy heard a train coming up the Great Western line , and ran across the fields to look at it . Wise , the proprietor and occupier of the field , was looking over the parapet of a bridge ( a portion of the railway ) close to the field where the boya were . He called to them to come out of the grass , which two of them did ; the others did not , but made their way to a gap they wished to get through . Wise again called out that they had no business there . Upon hearing this , the youth whom be so brutally treated replied , that " other persons

      ¦ went there , and he should . " Incensed at this reply . Wise rushed down the " slope" from the bridge , aud struck at the boy with his walking-stick . To avoid the blow , the yeuth made an attempt to take a hasty leap over a ditch , when his fost slipped , and a stake , which was fastened in the ground , passed up the left leg of his trousers , and entering his flesh just above the inner bone of the left ancle , forced its way through the calf of his leg , coming out a little below the outer bone of his knee . The poor youth , feeling the pain consequent upon ao dreadfal an incision , cried out to Wise , who was now beating him most unmercifully , that he bad "broke his leg" but it was not until he bad broken his stick about the youth ' s back that he ceased his

      cruelty . Freed from one species of torture the youth tried to extricate himself from the other ; to do this be was compelled to draw his leg from the stake ; Wise remarking " It served him right , and would make him remember the next time . ' * Wise now affected the humanity of sending for a wheelbarrow to convey the sufferer to a surgeon , which having been procured , the poor lad was taken to Mr . Brown ef Kensall Green , who slightly dressed the wound ; after which he was conveyed in a cart by Mr . Lauder , junior , atone mason , of Kensall Green , to St . George ' s Hospital , a distance of about five mites , where he still lies in a very weak state , the wound not being healed yet , and his leg and foot being very mnch-swollen . " Mr . Griffiths adds that the field in

      which the boys were is commonly passed through by the public , going from KdnsaH town to Wormholt Common , and has a foet-path across it .

      Dublin , Sept 23 rd , 1843 . Dear Sir , —In tny opinion there is nothing will inspire the timid , but at the same time honest and well-intentioned , portion of the community with more confidence than an ample " Victim Fund . " In sending you my subscription , an Irish : one pound note , to that fuud , and regretting that I cannot afford to send a hundred pounds instead , I beg it to be distinctly understood that I have no sympathy with evil doers—no feeling for those who wilfully , perversely , or ignorantly and obstinately knock ; their heads against the wall , and thus damage the cause in which they are embarked , and involve those who had more experience than themselves in the sauie troubles which their headlong andj thoughtless course had caused . There is no merit in violating the law ; in runniDg tilt against it , and becoming its victim . Movements , iu strict compliance with the law are the best , and most successful in the long run . j

      For instance . Sir Robert j Peel got a laut passed which compels the banks to pap their notes in gold ; now it is complying with the law , and at the same time complimentary to Sir Robert , to ' get gold for notes at the banks 1 !! i With every wish that this fund may soon be | amply sufficient to meet all just claims , I am , very truly , youre , | Patrick O'Higgins . Feargus O'Connor , Esq ., London . J . R ., Paisley . —Daniel O'Connell did give his sanction and affix his signature to a series of resolutions embodying the whole of the principles of the People ' s Charter , on which resolutions that document was founded . He did give to Mr . Lovett a di aught of

      a Bill which was used in the drawing up of the Charter , and which " draught" embodied the whole of the principles , and we believe almost the exact details , of the Charter Samuel Sigby , Ashton-under-Lyne . —We have forwarded his letter to the Victim Fond Committee at Manchester . | Mb . George White . —The Chartists assembling at Peck Lane , Birmingham ; have passed resolutions appealing to the Chartists ! of Bismingham and the surrounding districts to second the generous efforts of the Chartists of London , by aiding with their contributions the support of Mr . White in comfort and respectability during his Imprisonment . " The Committee meet at the above room every Sunday

      evening to receive subscriptions . Sundebland . —If our Sunderkud friends had but as carefully read the Star , as I they have evidently done the contemptible production on which they comment , they would not have tronbled themselves to pass their votes of " censure , " and " denunciation" : for they might have seen j that we had already refused to publish similar resolutions sent front other places . Mr . O'Connor's character is too firmly established to be shaken by the nonsense of a man who baa evidently taken leave of his senses ; we therefore advise our Sunderland , friends to let him alone . "To the Alkali or Chemical Workers on the TYMI AND Wear . "—We have received an address beaded as above . We have only room for the

      following-extracts : — j No trade requires at this time an Union amongst them more than we do . While we are Bitting in apathy onr masters ais reducing ns continually in our wagesthey are accumulating immense fortunes , while we become poorer and poorer every year . Numbers of our fellow-labourers are being thrown out ot employment and no provision made for them . We are not combined amongst ourselves to protect jour labour , bnt our mas . ters are united amongst themselves to protect their interests . And why not the sons of toil unite to defend their property , viz . their labour ? If we look to the pr « 8 ent efforts of the pitmen , the quarry men , and a number of other trades , we must acknowledge we stand self-condemned for not doing our duty to ourselves , our wives , and children—but let us no longer neglect that

      duty . Let a delegate meeting of those employed in the Alkali Works be immediately called at some central place , say Newcastle , South Shields , Sunderland , or some other place , that may ] be most convenient ; aud and let us endeavour , ta draw up such roles and regulations as will enable us to aet together—to support one another in sickness ; te protect our wages from being reduced ; to relieve each other when out of employment ; and to cultivate a feeling of brotherly love , Let some of our friends name a place , and Bay when a delegate meeting shall be held , and let the men in every Alkali Works net neglect to do their duty , but send a delegate to such meeting .

SCOTLAND AND THE NEW ORGANIZATION . —We have received the following letter , addressed to Mr . O'Connor , from ene of the noblest patriots breathing , Mr . Moir , of Glasgow . We are sure our readers will peruse it with no ordinary interest , coming , as it does , from a man who for years past has enjoyed the confidence of the working claases of that city . Mr .

      M . expresses his approbation of the " New Plan , " and does so in the best possible way , by sending to the General Treasurer ( Mr . O'Connor ) half a sovereign as his contribution to the Executive . We implore of our readers in general , and those of Glasgow in particular , a serious consideration of the weighty truths contained in Mr . M . '» letter . Let there be no more ot the " werae than nonsense * ' complained of by Mr . Moir : that of shouting for " the Charter and no surrender" at public meetings , and then doing nothing practically to get the Cha . rUr . The man who so shouts , and does nothing more , [ is nothing better than a " traitor" to the democratic canse . Let every man , according to hiB means , imitate Mr . Moir ; and let every Glasgow Chartist be prepared with his name and his pence to join the New Organization the moment it hat received legal sanction .

      174 , Gallowgate , Glasgow , 23 rd Sept , 1843 . My dear Sib , —As Treasurer for carrying out the New Pian of Organization , I herewith enclose for you half a sovereign as my mite for the said object . In making this communication to you , I cannot help remarking that there has not been anjthing in the conduct of the great mass ot the Chartists which has grieved and irritated me , and which has extorted from me from time to time stronger and more unqualified rt flections than the dishonesty ( IJBay it advisodly . ) hitherto exhibited by them in carrying out the resolutions of the body . {

      To give yon a proof of what I mean . In thi » great city in which I reside , we have had on many occasions , multitudinous—yea , very multitudinous-expressions of public opinion in favour of our principles , of which you yourself have been witness on more than one oceasion ; and yet , strange to say , we neves had , in the whole city of Glasgow and suburbs , more than two thousand members in our Association ; and I believe we never bad even that number for \ thne « i months , at one tiwie Now , Sir , such things ought not : to ba ; and such things must not be , if the peeple have any idea whatever of accomplishing their object No . simUmr number of men to that which we fame hitherto had to , itork the tcork . and pay the money , wp , can accomplish the object . I make this assertion that , that portion of the people who have hitherto contented themselves Witb looking on and waiting to reap the benefit of our exertions , may be thereby stimulated to Oo . ftefr duty ,.

      I believe the statement I have made respecting Glasgow is of universal 3 | gpUcaiipu or nearly so ; and U entirely dlscreditablftto the . great body of the peopl * -, for either the people do want the Charter or they do . not If they do want it , I think the experience they bavehad migki , be sufficient to satisfy tium that remaining rmtral is not exabtly the way to obtain it in eitner rh * shortest time , or at the leastpcwible expense . If they Ho not want it , or ( if they ba of opinion that the sp ^ riflce proposed to be made in tha effort to obuin ib tn > too great for the object ] Bought , in either case ( and I address myself particularly to that portion of xb »

      Tue Tybant "Coal Kings " . — -We have beard nothing . since our last of "His Grace"the Doke of Hamilton , and " The Carron Iron Company " . We have not heaid whether Sir James Graham has taken the necessary steps for the due enforcement of the law upon the " representative of the Queen" and the ( no doubt ) "highly respectable Company "; bnt we have heard news ot other parties , which tells us that the English "Coal BungB" are as bad , if sot something worse , than their Scottish '«• comroaues" . The following is from a correspondent on whose veracity

      and care in the collecting of fads , and facts only , we have the most implicit reliance . Read it , and then ask wbyia " the majesty of the law" not asserted ? Why are these " violators of the law" not punished ? Will Sir James Graham answer ? Onr correspondent . says : — " The Coal Miners of Wigan are glad to see the Star taking so noble a stand against the working of females in the pits ; and in order that you may be in possession of facts relative to the doings of the " Coal Kings" ot England , as well as Scotland , I haste to give you this information .

      "Mr . Whalley , a Whig-made Magistrate , who is bound to see the law carried into effect , has a number of women and girls working in his pits , about twenty in the whole . Mr . Preston also has females working in his pits . The way they gull the public is this : —The femd / es are dressed in male attire , having . jackets and trowsers in place of the linsey petticoat and bedgown they formerly wore over their short irpwsers ' . U We knout one man whose wife is working in this way , and who is willing , if any one will lay the information , to give evidence . Ha shall not be long short of the opportunity . " What will Sir James Graham think of that ? Mark the low cunning ( wor thy of a Whig-msAo magistrate ) the despicable attempt at fraud on the public , implied in the dressing of the women in jackets and trowsers I But is this all ? Mark the outrage—the beastly and infamous outrage upon public morals and public

      decency , involved in this " promiscuous" dressing of the sexes ! Are such outrages ou woman's modesty and dignity to be tolerated ? We trust not . In th « case of the man whose wife is so working , we advite > that instant information be given , that the magistrates of that district may be tested , so that we may know whether they will countenance their " brother magistrate" , Mr . Whig Whalley , in his monstrous Iniquity . We have seen a clearance of "Repeal " magistrates because they sympathised with the people We ask . . whether magistrates who grind the pe * and trample upon the law , are not also to be dismissed ? " We pause fer a -reply *; and in the meantime beg to assure Her Majesty ' s Home Secretary , that no exertions on out part shall be wanting to > ferret him out sufficient " game , " which in our opinion stands far more in need of the " clearance system" than the unjnstly and unconstitutionally dismissed " Repeal" magistrates of Ireland .

Although the Nerthem Star has ever since its establishment advocated the " Repeal of the Union , " and although this paper is the universally acknowledged organ of a great national party , numbering upwards of three millions * who petitioned for Repeal , still no card of admission , to the meeting was seat to this office ; consequently our reporter did not attend .

      about , or to keep him out to those late hours which we know throngh affectionate kindness would be their anxious desire . We believe that nothing but the desire to afford the working men of England and Scotland an opportunity of testifying their undying devotion to their own principles , and the many false lights that are placed before them , would have prevailed upon Mr .
