      Mr . Alderman Tottie rose to present the report of the Finance <' ommrt , cee , containing an estimate of the probable expenses of the borough , from the l ^ t of April to th ^ 30 th of Sdpti-mber , both inclusive . He remarked that in March last year , it was his duty , as Cnairman of tho Finance Committee to submit t j the T > wn Council a statement of finances of the borough , "with an estimate of the expenses of the coming half year , when he had the satisfaction to inform the Council that there was a balance in the hanos of the treasurer amounting to £ 5916 la .. 9 d . and thattheraies in arrear then were only £ 451 43 . 9 d . He-regretted that the financial statement at present was somewhat leF 3 favourable , there being now

      a balance due to th treasurer of £ / 69 83 3 d , wmlst the arrears of boron ^ h r ^ -t ; were 4 ^ 927 10 s 8 u , the arrears of wa ch rate having been paid up . He bezged to suggest that it would be inexpedient to allow th < -se arrears to remain svny longer unpaid . The exp ? nccs of the current half year are estimated at £ 11 , 198 ; to provide tor which there would be a watcn rate in May next , £ 5 . 850 ; government repayment ? , £ 800 ; penalties aud miscellaneous receipts , £ 170 , aud aborouah rate of 2 | d in tke pound , which will produee £ 4378 .

Aid Smith in the chair , when the estimated expences , as follows , were read by the Town Clerk : —

      £ s . d . No . 1 , Constabulary Force , ... 4262 10 0 No . 2 , Municipal -Elections ... 400 0 0 No . 3 , Q-iarter Sessions ... 2215 0 0 No . 4 , West Riding ... ... 2600 0 0 No . 5 , County AssiieB ,... ... 500 0 0 No . 6 , Salaries and Allowances 785 0 0 No . 7 , Corporate Buildings ... 165 10 0 No . 8 , Miscellaneous Expences 270 0 0

      Several members expressed their sentiments , and the motioa was ultimately withdrawn , Mr . Cawood expressing his determiuaiion to proceed with it next haif year , except the watch coininittee saved him the trouble . .. , . .- . '• . V " . ;¦ - ' ¦¦ ¦ :: ; Mr . Councillor Bbamley thought £ 500 might be saved in the West-Ridiiig Eatimates ( No . 4 ) , aud made a proposition to that effect , but after an explanationby the Treasurer , whoseprosencewaarequested , he ah ered . his motion to £ 200 , upon which a vote was taken , and it was negatived . The Council then resumed , and the Chairman reported progress , upon which the Mayor put it that the estimates bo agreed to , which waa carried .

      The second notice on the paper was , "That the Mayor , as Chairman of the Council , do f igtt his approbation of the accounts of the Treasurer , for the expences of assize and seseiohs prosecutions , and of conveying transportconvicts , in order to obtain the proper return ( being One-half ) from the Lords of the Treasury /' Mr . Aid . Tottie introduced this motion , and having been seconded by Mr . Aid . Smith , was carried unanimou ly .

      The next notice was , " that a borough rate to rais 9 the sum of £ 1781 2 s . lid , required by the West Riding Justices , for the purpose of enlarging Wakefield House of Correction , bo forthwith levied . " Mr . ¦¦ " . «! . Cliff mpved u that the levying of this sum be postponed until after the deputation appointed at the last meeting sha . il have met the West-Ridi * g Justices on this suivjeei , and that a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the West-Riding treasurer and solicitor . " This was seconded by Mr . Barlow , and carried .

      Mr . Aid . Tottie moved m addition " that the deputation authorised by the Gpunevl on the '" 2 ad oi March last , toiconfer with the West Riding Justices on the proposed contract for the maintenance at Waktfield of the prisoners from the borough of Leeds are authorised t-v . state that the Town Council object to contract for a short time ,-. renewable or wok at the option of those parties as advised by Mr . Hall , and prefer to build a gaol within the borough at as early a period as -practicable- ; -or the Council will concur with the Riding Justices in completing a permanent contracE on : the . 'terms , recognised by the order of the justices on the 9 th June , 1841 ; and on this latter alternative being fully agreed upon , and aeontract completed accordingly , the Council will forthwith order payment of the contribution , amounting to £ 1781 2 s . lid . towards the expences of the house of correction at Wakefield /' Mr . Councillor Bramley seconded the

      proposition . A short conversation ensued , after which the motion was unanimously agreed to . The next iiotico embraced the proceedings to be taken against the out-townships who were in arrear wiih the borough rate , amounting in all to £ 927 10 s . 8 d . It was determined that they be summoned for the amount , and that-for- ' . the fiiturpyth-vTown Clerk , in his precept to the out-tovvnship » , give them notice that legal interest will be exacted trom them for all arrears ' of longer than two months standing .

      On the moiion of Mr . Councillor Whiteheab , seconded by Mr . Councillor Maktin Cawood , petitions recommended by a commit'ee previously chosen , were ordered to be sent to both Houses of Parliament , praying them to enact laws for the purpoao of establishing one uniforni system , of assessing and collecting local and other rates threughout England and . 'Wales- ; the petition to the Lords to be presented by Earl Fizwilliam , and that to the Commons , by Mr . Aldam . The valuation committee presented a report of which the following is a 'Cppy : —r .

      " In pursuauee of the resnlution of the Council , we have paid all the claims npon the valuation fund , except the sum of £ 500 , which was retained in hand until the map of tne township of Leeds should be completed , and which , when paid , will leave in the hands of the treasurer a balance of about £ 30- We have entered into an agreernent with Messrs , Sharp , to revise and complete the valuation of the borough , on or before the 1 st of October next , in time for the use of the overseers in laying the November rate . The maD of the township of Leeds is now nearly finished ; it does not , however , appear to your committee that , the map will answer the purpose of the Council , as originally designed , when the map and valuation Of the borough was ordered , the alteration

      of the plan being caused by the difficulty of making it intelligible . It , therefore , is , in the opinion ot your committee , desirable that another map , 0 a a scale sufficiently large should be drawn , to contain tho numbers of tho houses corresponding to the book of reference and the names of the streets . This map wo propose to have drawn on a larger scale than the one first proposed , and to divide it into wards , and lithograph it , bo that the inhabitants may , if they think proper , have copies of it . We have obtained an estimate of the supposed cost of this enlarged plan , and tbe lithographing thereof , and we . find . both-: together will amount : to tne sum of £ 384 for the first hundred , and for each additional hundred tha sum of £ 91 . These maps will contain the lumbers of the house V and the names of the

      streets . The lithogiaphingof this and thu out-township maps is thought by your committee highly desirable for two important reasons . First , that the sale of the maps wiJi probably repay the expences of drawing and lithographing the map of Leeds on an enlarged scale , and the lithographiug the oattownship maps ; second , that the utility of the work will be much increased by enabling the members of the Council , churchwardens , overeeers , surveyors , coamissioners . and other public bodit's and inhabitants of the borough , to possess a . work so valuable for constant reference at a small price . It will be bome in mind that the scale of the enlarged maps is such as to admit of having laid down thereon main sewers , drains , cro-s drains , gas pipes , water pipes , water plugs , levels , and other similar information . "

      The report having been rcad , a motion was made by Mr . Aid . Lcccock that it be filed and adopted but after some conversation it was agreed to file it only , the adoption of its recommendations to be the subject of future consideration and inqu ' ry . This being the last notice , the Council broke up about a quarter past four o ' clock .

      TO THE IMPERIAL CHARTISTS . My beloved Fhiends ^ I have only time to say that we have done bravely . The devils of the Conference—Vincent , in particular—both in their meetings and at meetings of the Chartist Church , have poured out the venom of their poor Wrath on me and your leaders . I can bear it . They have acknowledged our principles ; but to-morrow they are to make an attempt to get into the traces , and place us in the shafts ! Bui they shant ! J Our meeting will be glorious on Monday , The Bradford delegates are fine follows . This Sturge Conference is a remuster of the rump of the old Malthusian London Working Man ' s Association *

      Stnrge is , as I long ago said , too good a man , but too weak ; he is led by those who surround him . He must throw them off , or he must perish . They speak of another National Conference . Then , hurrah for our side ! I will spend my last farthing to make a fair representation of our party , when it comes . You shall hear of the finest meeting ever hold in Birmingham on Monday next .

The delegates again assembled at ten o ' clock , and after the minutes of tho preceding meeting had been confirmed , several delegates reported that they had applied for admission to the Sturge Conference , and their . credentials were refused , and pointed out the capricious and partial manlier in which the committee of investigation of credentials had treated the people ' s delegates . Mr . j Peplow reported that the committee , of which Mr . Henry Vincent and Mr . WestertOn , of London , and Dr . Wade were members , unanimously rejected the credentials of the people ' s delegates . Mr . O'Connor then moved the adjournment to one o'clock on Wednesday .

That we , the delegates assembled at Birmingham , consider ourselves responsible to the people , who sent us here , and whose servants we are , and

      " That we , the delegates ,, do hereby invite the several Councils of the several Chartist Associations of Birajingham to meet us at eight o'clock on Thursday evening , for the purpose of inqniring into the present state ! of their organisation , with a view ii correct any defects that may abpear to exist in the system , and to place their several bodies upon a sound and firm basis . " . Carried unanimousl y ^ The committee , for eetteng up the public meeting , were ordered to meet at ten o ' clock on Thursday morning ; after which the delegates adjourned till eight o ' clock .

      WEDNESDAY EVENING . The whole of this evening was occupied in discussions as to the propriety of holding public naeetiugs each niuht in Birmingham , during the sitting of the Conference ; and as to the best means of procuring iho attendance of the Birmingham councils , many of whom being prosent expressed tho general opinion which pervaded the body that the object was most desirable , and would meet with their most cordial co-operation . The delegates sat till eleven o ' clock , tha room being crammed the whole time , and was adjourned till one o ' clock on Thursday .

      There appears to be good generalship some where , as the eicitement produced by the finticipation of Monday ' s meeting has attracted all public attention from the Sturge Conference , which is now spoken of as a hoax and a failure , things having taken adiffiSrentturnfronithatcalculateduponbytheirespcctiFeagentsof whom theimoihy group is composed . It is truly lanyhable and ridiculous to see the unbiassed representatives of the people applying at Mr

      Sturge ' s provision store for their " tickot for soup , " each member receiving a ticket for each meal signed "Joseph Sturge ; " thus practically admitting the principle of payment of members : while full , free , and fair representation cannot be more happily-illustrated than in the case of John Collins , who was almost unanimou-Jy rejected by his townsmen , and with this flattering mark of distinction was sent to Newport at Mr . Sturge ' s expence , aud from thence came back as a full , fite , and fair popular delegate . O , ghost of Shell !

      MEETING AT THE HALL OF SCIENCE . It having been announced on Tuesday morning that Poar ^ us O'Connor would deliver a lecture in the Hall of Science , Lawrence-street , at seven o ' clock in the evening , at the time for commencing business Mr . J . Porter , of Bull-street , was called to the chair ; and on Mr . O'Connor making his appearanee he was greeted with enthusiastic plaudits . Messrs . Bairstow and W . D . Taylor were also loudly cheered . The Chairman thanked them for the honour conferred on him , and introduced

      Mr . J . Bairstow , who was received by the meeting with loud aud long-repeated cheerinsr . He delivered a most eloquent address , in which he ably defended the ChaitiKt movement , and pointed oat the objections to the present Smrge movement . Hu then concluded by challenging a discussion witii any man on the principles or the People's Charter ; and retired amid loud cheering . Mr . E . P . Mead then addressed the meeting in an energetic and humourous address , and was loudly cheered . The Chairman then introduced

      Mr . Feab « us O'C onnor , who was received with every possible mark of respect and es'eem by the crowded and enthusiastic assembly , the ladies , who thronged the gallery , being foremost in testifying their approbation by waving their handkerchiefs fora considerable time . He thankfd them for the flattering reception he at all times received , and proceeded at great length to expose the many attempts made to guil the people . They had be ^ n betrayed , because they were apt to place confidence in the professions of those Who merely wanted to use them for their own purposes . He then commented on the manner in which the Whigs had falsified their many professions , and read a document which |

      shewed the shameful amount paid for the support of the Birmingham Polico , which was nearly as much as was required to keep up the whole police establishinent in America ; He then exposed the various tricks arid bloody wars instituted by the Whigs , as a proof of their retrenching propensities . Tne Chartists had rallied for seven years under the flag of justice and equal rights ^ The name of the Charter had been the watchword [ which had enabled them to beat down all opposition , and would they now give up the name under which they had rallied so long?—( loiid showts of "No , no , nevcri" and loud oheeri )) . A Conference was then sitting in the town called together by Mr . Joseph

      Smrge . They had also a Conference elected by the people . There were thirty Chartist delegates present , to watch the proceedings of the Conference and watch over the interests of the people v amongst whom was the excellent aud honest president of the Executive , Mr . James Leach , one whom the gold pe the people ' s enemies could not purchase—ilond cheers ) . They had knocked down the " New Move , " the " Fox and Goose Glub , " and every other device of those who wanted to divide the people , and , with : the blessing of God , they would also do away with the Complete Suffrage affair , — - ( loud cheeTs , )—and in doing so , not only would the people of Birmingham rejoice , but

      Glasgow , Manchester , Leeds ,.-and ; all parts of the country would triumph with them . He then dwelt at great length On the great exertions which the men of Birmingham had made in the ciuse of liberty , and said he had no doubt they would do their duty on the present occasion . He had witnessed a glorious display in Manchester lately ,- at which : there were upwatdg of half a million of human beings assembled to do honour to tho memory of that noble of nature , the late lamented Henry Hunt , and he was confident that every oiie of them would feel themr selves disgraced were they to give up one jot of the Charter j even its name . ( Loud cheers . ) He had stood by the people for a long time ; he had done so

      without receiving or reqairing a farthing from any man ; and no matter what they did , he was resolved and would never agree to go for anything short of the Charter ; he would hot even give up the - name ^ - ( heav , hear , and loud cheers . ) He » hen procesded to iexpiain the effect that would be produced by Peel ' s budget , and wittily showed up the manner in wliich the parties interested would object to it , and proved that the people were the actual payers of all indirect taxation , they having to pay 13 . s . 6 d . out of every pound of their hard earnings . Did they think that Mr . Sturge ' s plan would remove the present system 2 —( no , wo . ) It was said that the Chartists were the party that kept Sir Robert Peel in office . He

      denied it . No ; it was the Whigs , who refused to do justice to the people ^( loud cheers . ) They might talk as they likefi about the phy .-ical-forceChartists , but he could point , with sorrow and pride , to the last year , during which the people of this country had endured the most appalling misery and starvation ; yot they were noD guilty of a single crime . What then would be tlie result if they had an honest parliament of their own choosing , with the comfort it would produce I After again reverting to Peel ' s Budget , and dwelling at great length on the course which the Chartists ought to pursue , he passed a high eulogium on Mr ; James . Leach for his servicesj and concluded by calling on them to rally round the

      Charter , as their only hope of security aud "' . pro ' speri ' . y-:. ; - 'H « resumed his seat amidst loud and long repeated cheering . Mr , James Leach was then loudly called for , and was received with loud cheers . He proceeded to gyve an account of the impositions and robberies piactised towards the operatives of Lancashire by the manufacturers—some of the statements created a tremendous feeling of indignation towards those hypocrites who pretend to be the people ' s friends . Mir . W . D Taylor was also loudly called for , ar id delivered a short address on the propriety of standing firmly by the Charter . He was loudly cheered .

      Mr . O'Connor then addressed the meeting on the propriety of holding a public meeting of the Midland Counties on Monday nexf , and concluded by passing a high compliment on the honesty and exewions of tho Chairman in the peoplo's cause , and by proposing a vote of thanks to him , which was seconded and carried unanimously . The Chairman having returned thanks , a collection was entered into to defray the expence of the forthcoming meeting . Three cheers were then given for the Charter , three for Peavgus O'Connor , thre « for Frost , Williams , and Jones , and three for Mr . Bairstow , and the meeting separated . The delegates proceeded to the meeting at the Red Lion Inn . Smallbrook-street .

They have thus agreed to every point in the Charter . To-day ( Thursday ) the Conference are busy discussing on the title to be given , whether it Bhall be the Charter or not .
