      Cibijsle IShabtists must exeus * us : toe have only ^ to repeat our notice of last week . We cannot give the retiring address of local councils ; it is unreasonable to expect it .

It is qxate true that bad knot generate oppressions and repress liberty : it is equally true thai mast ©/ our laws are of this character ; but this by no ^

      means demonstrates T . A ' s apothegm , " The less law , the note liberty . " It is not so much the excess of ha as the lack of justice which has reduced us to the condition of slaves . , The Bath Cbabtists' Abdbess to tests Ibbh Bbethben teas received too late for publication ; and in any cases there must be some limit to the jjubRc&tion of these local addresses , or , we perceive , thai tee shall have scarcely anything else . Wethink , thatifevery locality , instead of sending us for pubHcafion a separate address , would send its instructions to the Executive to prepare a national address , the object would be quite as well achieved , and much space time and trouble

      sared . Every locality might also , if it chose , send its own address at once to the Secretary of the Irish Universal Suffrage Association .

      Besides receiving several petitions agam 3 t the Collieries Bill , in chiding one from females employed m mines in Scotland , the " House" was chiefly employed in discussing the Drainage ( Ireland ) Bill ia a Committee , which passed throngh that stage lfter . a division . The re-committal of the Collieries' Bill -was postponed till Monday , and it seems now very unlikely that it should pass this session .

The House was occupied the principal part of the ETeaing with the Poor Law Amendment BilL Sir Jakes Gbahah announced that at the late period which the session bad now reached , it was the fciention of Government to press only the early dimes ( which are those relating to the continuance aid powers t > f the Commission ) , together with some ttJsec ! laEeou 3 provisions , relating principally to fisoil poor and lunaiics , and to the qualifications fcdpoweis of guardians . In the next session , the Sorernmeni , he 5-aid , would introduce a fresh bill , ssbodjing the clauses now to bs dropped . Considering this alteied tuts of things , he hoped that laikmen opposite Tronld forbear from insisting on She amendments of vrhich tbej- had given notice .

      Mi . Sharman Crawford's amendment , to give the &sa Poor Law Commissioners power to grant ont-£ oor relief , and Mr . Fielden ' s amendment , that the 331 be no farther proceeded with till a full inquiry ks be * n made into the effects of the law on the tOEdition of the -working classes , svere both l ' by arge majorities .

      HftHilitiY . —OSE 5 I 0 HE VICTIM ADDED TO HIE KCAXCEBATED CHARTISTS AT STAFFORD . —The COlkers * strike EtiP continues in the StaiFordshire Potteries , and the men are as determined as they were on the first day ' s resistance to their odious taskmasters rednction . One of these masters ( K E . matbcotfO belongs to the psecdo liberal gentlemen called TV hip . This paragon of virtue , patriotism , tod benevolence , who boasted of his love for ihe tigb . t 3 and liberties of the whole people at the Ia 3 t aection , has been one of tie first to effj the reduction of sixpence per day , increasing their amount of abour , and depriving them of what the miners « eaaicall y call their M bnrning coal . " They have ^ tinned up to the pre 3 eat moment very peaceable , enough it is stated that ten thousand miners have

      «* g « iised themselves to withstand the proposed reaction . ; No disturbance was anticipated np to fnday last . Two troops of yeomanry from the « fcmtvs of Stafford and Cheshire , and the 12 th « guneni of Foot were paraded from Newcastlecader-Lyne , in physical force array , fay the order of welye magistrates , -one of whom ( R . E . Heathcote , ^ q . j was the pwty against whom the collieraliad * rasted , tlins choiring that the very power which tod reduced the hire of the labourer is the power "at is attempting to subjugate them to their own wii and caprice . What ; he men want is a reasonwie demand , viz . four ehmings per day and nine

      trict , maddened by this act , pointed out a worthy , quiet , aad respectable member of our association , ( Mr . Sale ) and told hin he would set a mart upon him . A Charii 8 t meeting being held on Thursday evening last , Mr . Edward Sale was there in attendance , when some boys hurled some stones at the cavalry . Parties being charged that were innooent , Mr . Sale protested against their guilt . Mr . Sale ' s name was then asked { or , and they wished to know why he interfered . The lads were set at liberty in consequence of his protestation . When leaving the parties , he was told they would mark him ; and on Sunday , July 17 th , while looking at the soldiers on tbe Pottery Race Course , which they had made for a barracks , Mr . Baily Rose , and Cotterill the policeman / spied bim out from amongst the crowd ;

      at four o ' clock , escorted him to Newoastle-under-Lyne , witha body of cavalry , and at five o ' clock , was examined at the station , by Mr . Smith Child , the then sitting magistrate , and at six o ' clock , committed , to . Stafford for misdemeanour ; the evidenoe being given by fpHr of the cavalry and one of the policemen . It is paid that many of the Chartist leaders are marked out to bB pursued in the same manner , and tried by the same military tribunal . ; Chartist meetings will be legally heid throughout | tbe Potteries to collect funds to defend Mr . Sale , 1 and to forward the cause . The depositions have ; been obtained from the Newcastle authorities , and ; Mr . Wiliiams of Stoke-upon-Trent , has been en-1 gaged to defend Mr . E . Sale at Stafford Assizes , ! which commence on Thursday next , ( July 21 , ) when i he is to be tr ; ed .

      GATESHEAD — The middle classes of Gateshead got up a requisition to the mayor to convene a public "meeting , to consider the distress of tbe unemployed -workmeB , -which was held in the Town Hall , on Monday , the 18 th , at noon . George Sowerby , Esq . mayor , in the chair , three resolutions were adopted which did great credit to the gentlemen who brought them forward . A committee were then appointed and sabicriptions were entered into , when in less than half an hour about £ 110 were subscribe d and work marked oat for them to do , which will be commenced immediately . We believe it is intended

      to give married men with families , two shillings per day , and single men one shilling and sixpence each . It was anticipated that the genta intended converting the meeting into a political one , and working men attended in case it should , but there was no other attempt made , than by one gentleman , who suggested that the Government should be petitioned to to repeal the corn and provision laws , when Sinclair suggested the Charter as the most efficient meanB of ameliorating the condition of the people . The n-iyor protested against the Charter being introduced , and Sinclair protested against the corn law humbugs , and it so ended .

      THEBSK . —Magistrates' Room , Monday , July 18—Magistrates present , W . Ratson and J . S . Crompton , Esqs , John Atkinson , James Atkinson , William Allison , John Appleton , Thomas Johnson , and John Proud , all of Thirsk and the immediate neighbourhood , and John Kirk and Henry Atkinson , who did not appear , and for whose apprehension warrants were issued , were charged with violently assaulting , by beating with sticks and otherwise , Christopher Kirfay and George Kirby , of KirkliBgton . It appeared , from the evidence adduced , that early on Wednesday morning last , being Sandhatton feast , the eight persons charged had gone into the house of Sir . John Goodrick , of that place , innkeeper , with the evident intention of creating a row , and commenced by taking up a pot of ale belonging to the complainants , who were there sitting and drinking it off amongst them : and on the owners of

      tbe liquor expressing their dissatisfaction , they were Eet upon by the whole gang of ruffians , and most savagely and unmercifully beaten and maltreated : at the same time they broke and demolished a great part of the furniture , pots , glasses , &c . These facts being clparly established , they were convicted in a penalty of £ 2 andcosts each , or six weeks * imprisonment in the House of Correction . Another charge against the above defendants ( with the exception of John Proud ) was heard , in which it was proved that they had most brutally assaulted William Ellis ., about aahour previous to the above , in the same house ; and John Appleten was convicted in a further penalty of £ 2 , or an additional month ' s imprisonment , and the other defendants in £ 1 aHd costs each , or a fortnight ' s additional imprisonment . The delinquents paid the fines , with the exception of William Allison , who was taken to Nortnallertonfor tiro months .

      Qfkkts Letteb . —On Sunday last , in accordance with the Queen ' s letter , a strmon was preached in the parish church of Thirsk , by the Rev . S . Coates , in which , after discoursing right eloquently on that most excellent gift of charity , the Rev . Gentleman plainly showed his hearer 3 how much he was imbued with the spirit that " thinketh no evil , 13 kind , and rejoiceth in the truth , " by saying that the distress . at present so prevalent amongst the working classes , was a visitation from God upon them for their sins "—thus declaring all the poor to be vicious , and by implication , of course , all the rich virtuous . ( Here is a sample of the charity of the Church !) At tbe same time he told his bearers that they ought not to withhold their charity even from the wicked . A collection was made which amounted to £ 15 . 14 s . 6 d . A w ^ ek or two since the collection at the annual missionary meeting was £ 164 10 a .

      MANCHESTER .. —Brutal Coroner op the Polics . —On Saturday afternoon , a poor lad waa coming np Ashton-street , Bank-top , with a wheelbarrow , selling sand , when he was obaTged with taking a string of beads from the neck of a child . The lad declared that he was innocent . The policeman searched his person , and the wheelbarrow in which he had his sand , bnt without success ; no beads were to be found ; but , notwithstanding , the policeman took him into custody amid the execrations ot" the people , who had collected together , and witriessed the whole affair . A poor man , named James Moor , who keeps a small coal-yard , on the opDOsite side of the street , said that he { the

      policeman ) wanted to make some money by the job . This wag sufficient provocation to warrant this jack-inoffice to draw his bludgeon , and , in a most brutal manner , strike the poor fellow upon his head , and various parts of hi 3 body , antil the blood ran down his face and neck . He then dragged him to the station , were he remained from Saturday afternoon until Monday * znoraing , when he was bronght before tbe magistrates , and the policeman prepared a charge of assault" against him . After a patient hearing , the magistrates dismissed the case ; and this is all the justice that a poor man is to have for being abused and imprisoned for the crima of speaking in the-street , when he sees a fellow-being unjustly treated .

      Ox Sosday Evemu ' g last , as Mr . Gabrijl Hargraves and ' another gentleman were walking tip Gregson- street , a policeman came out of a publichouse in a btate of intoxication . Mr . Hargraves ' s friend remarked— "There is one of Sir Charles Scaw's men in * a fine condition . " The polieetnan hearing this remark , without further ceremony struck a Kow at Air . Hargrave 3 , which thai gentleman fortunately waTded off- The policeman then drew out his trnncheon , and aga n aimed a blow at Mr . Hargraves . By this time a great number of people had collected together , and the policeman , still determined to chastise Mr . Hargraves ,

      continued striking at him with his truncheon , which he escaped by walking backwards , and the policeman being so tipsy he could not accomplish his object . As he was making a blow , Mr . Hargravea slipped to one Bide , and succeeded in taking his truncheon from bim , which he took to the police-effiee , accompanied by several respectable individuals who had witnessed the whole of the policeman ' s conduct , and gave in the trnncheon and the policeman's number . He was then given to understand that he would be required to appear against the policeman and make good his charge , but np to the present time ( Wednesday ) he has not been called npon to do eo .

      BRADFORD . —Bape and Abduction . —On Monday , Abraham Lightowler , coal hawker , was charged by the constable of North Bierley , with having committed a rape on the pirson of Martha Roberts , aged 1 ' 6 years . Prom the evidence gone into , it appeared that the offence W&S commuted on Friday last , in a hay field , that on the same evening she was consigned to the care of a relative to appear igainst the prisoner on Monday , ( ho having been taken on Friday , ) that at an early hour on Monday morning the honse was entered by the chamber ivindow , and the girl was abducted therefrom , and iad not since been heard of . From the character of , he connections of the prisoner , reasonable fears nay be entertained for the personal safety of the ? iri . The prisoner was remanded till search could » e made for her .

      ' liOUGHBOROUGH . —Diabolical Ootrage . —On Saturday night , or early on Sunday morning , some evil disposed person or persons , placed in the room occupied by the Chartists , at Loughborougli , a piece ot wood , eleven inches Jong , and four and shalf square , in which tney had bored a hole , and deposited half a pound of gunpowder , p lugging it down , and making & fuse-hole in the side . They then laid a train , and fired it ; but fortunately it did not go off . It was discovered on the Sunday morning , and on Mr . Skevington being informed of it « he immediately sent for Mr . Hague , Inspector of Police , to whom the instrument of destruction was i given , together with pieces of cotton used for candle-1 wick , which were found in different parts of the room and yard , partly burned . The landlord of the I room also came in , ia whose hands and the police i the m&tter at present rests .

      BASXiXNGDEN . —A large meeting was belden on the 13 th instant , in Mandea-aqoare , to hear the report of Mr . Smith , the Anti-Corn Law delegate . After an able speech of an hour , in which he detailed the parti " culars of the interview with Six Robert Peel , &c , the lecturer concluded by moving a resolution to the effect , that as all the Anti-Cora Law efforts had failed in arresting the attention of Government and Parliament , the people should now agitate for the People ' s Charter . Mr . Tattersall seconded the resolution in an able speech , and the meeting adopted it unanimously . It is supposed that there were from seven to eight thousand people at the meeting . Mr . Tattersall gave another lecture in the Chartist room on the following evening , when the room Was crammed to excess , and a 2 reai number were obliged to go away that could not gain admittance . At the son * elusion of his address eiguty-two new members were enrolled .

Two auditors were appointed to examine the contribution-books . Tbe delegates gave in reports as to how they were getting on in their respective localities : the accounts on the whole were cheering ; the only thing wanted was lecturers . The address of the Executive was then brought forward , more particularly that part which referred to the Conferences that are to be held . After a deal of discussion , it was agreed that it should be left over till the next

      meeting . The noxt qusstion disposed of was , that a lecturer be appointed . The Leeds delegate then brought forward a motion , " That General Committee be appointed to superintend the municipal affairs of this borough . " This was agreed on by all . A Committee was then chosen from persons in tbe tows and out-townships within the borough . The committee are requested to meet to-morrow afternoon , in the Association Room , Cheapside , at two o'clock .

      SHEFFIELD . —Glorious Prog&ess op Chartism . —Hurrah for the Charter ! Holberry has not died in vain ; Sheffield is roused at last ; heaven grant that the country at large may be speedily up and doing likewise ; the last week has beea a glorious one for the good old cauee . Since the report in last week ' s Star was written , we have held one in-door and five out-door meetings , and enrolled above two hundred and eighty new members . We proceed to give a brief sketch of the proceedings , brief it nmst be , for we have no time to spin long yarns , we dont write now , we work . Wednesday , July the 13 ch , a large publio meeting was held in Paradise-square , to adopt a petitiou to the House of Commons praying for inquiry into

      the unconstitutional and tyrannical persecution of Mr . Mason and his fellow-sufferers . Th » petition was moved by Mr . Harney , seconded by Mr . Edwin Gill , and unanimously adopted . Several patriotic songs were sung in the course of the proceedings , and a goodly number of recraita enlisted . Thursday , July 14 th . —A public meeting was held in Paradise Square , to hear two friends from Lancashire , on the srate of the country . The speakers were Messrs . Rigby and Sumuer , from Cnorley , who addressed the many thousands assembled at great length . Mr . Harney followed , descanting upon the necessity of union , organisation , and unwearied prudence and caution . As usual , the singing of patriotic songs and hymns commenced and concluded tbe

      proceedings . A large number of recruits were enlisted . We now come to tbe most pleasing part of our report , the visit of Mr . Cooper , of Leicester . Mr . Cooper had been repeatedly iuvited , but could not before find time to comply with the invitations . Air . Cooper preiched on Sunday afternoon in Roscoe Fields to a very large audience , upon whom he made a deep impression . —/ n the evening , Mr . Cooper preached a funeral sermon on the death of the late lamented patriot Samuel Holberry . —Mr . C . preached an excellent discourse to an assembly nearly double the number of the afternoon meeting . The sumof j £ 17 b . 10 di was collected for Mrs . Holberry . —Monday , July 13 sh . —The Town Hall had been engaged for Mr . Cooper for the delivery of a

      lecture therein . By half-past seven o ' clock the Hall was crammed in every part , and it was with no small diffisuUy that admission for Mr . Cooper was obtained ; some thousands congregating in the 8 treets who could not get admission . On Mr . C . presenting himself , he was received with the most tremendous and enthusiastic cheering . Mr . Harney then moved the adjournment of the meeting to tht Hay market , which was agreed to . Here a glorious gathering assembled . Mr . Cooper spoke for nearly two hours , delivering a soul-stirring address , interrupted only by the repeated plaudits of his hearers . At the conclusion of Mr . Cooper's address , the whole meeting sung iu gallant style ,- — " We'll rally around him again and again , " a song in praise of tbe people's champion , Feargus O'Connor . Three cheers were then given for the Charter ; three for O'Connor , and three for Cooper , when toe meeting Beparafed . Mr . Cooper enrolled one hundred and

      fifteen new members on Sunday night , and would undoubtedly have enrolled a still larger number on Monday night , but that darkness prevented an attempt being made ; as it was , a considerable numbar followed Mr . Harney home , and enrolled themselves that night . Mr . Cooper has done an incalculable amount of good for the cause in Sheffield ; the feeling in his favour is enthusiastic in the extreme . A few more workers like him , and the days of oppression would be numbered , and slavery would wither and die . Tuesday , Juty I 9 : h . —A meeting of tbo members was hold in the Fig Tree L * ne Room . Mr , Womenholme was called to the chair .--Mr . Harney read the leading article of that day ' s Morning Sun , git ' iDg a , faithful picture ef the imbecility , treachery , and tyranny of the middle classes . Mr . H . commented at great length upon the Editor ' s remarks , and was fallowed by Mr . Samuel Parkes , who delivered a most effective address . The room

      was crowded in every part , and the greatest enthusiasm prevailed . Our Association is now seven hundred strong ; and , though we are far beTow the Shakspereans of Leicester , yet we hope to beat them yet , having increased five hundred in about a month , which is not so rery bad , considering what a Whig-ridden town this has been . Four things are needed to be done , and all will be well . First , numbers , overwhelming numbers , must be enrolled in our Association ; second , those numbersmust be efficiently organifed ; third , everything

      iu the shape of violent or foolish language must be sternly discountenanced and put down ; and , fourth , tbe mask must be torn from the face of hypoorisy , and every trimming humbug must be exposed , and driven from our ranks . If these things are done , the people ' s salvation will be in their own hands , and they may Bpeedily and for ever burst their fetters . One word of advice .

      Mr . Steele ( Head Bapeal Warden of Ireland ) then rose to propose the next resolution , and was greeted with loud cheering . Be said—In the coarse of my political life , I never with more ' pleasure moved a resolution than the one I hold In my hand—( hear . ) A tide ot thought rashes on my soul at this moment by xeason of the many subjests on which I might choose to addresa my brother Repeal Wardens in this watduiote—the Repeal itself , the antindavery question , the income tax , the aew , noble , and peaceful Chartist movement in England , under Joseph Sturge , aa contra-dlstinguiflhed from FeargusfBm , the Chartism « f tha cowardly miscreant in « endlsry Feargus O'Conner - ^{ hear , hear , heat ) , In the Stunjite inoveinent

      O'Connell is not only a member of the provisional coon-< rfl , butasalawyer heis the " Connaellor OConneUof tbe Complete Suffrage Union , u perfectly as he was eyet the *« ConnseUor O'CtonneU" Of the Irish people in their legal , peaceful , and constitutional conflict . I shall , however , restrict myself to the subjeet of the resolution —( hear , hear ) . And now , in order that we may understand each other clearly , I wish to tell you that I approve of loyftlty , becaose my gteatleadeti the moral regenerator , O'Connell , has invented an ethereal system of political : warfare , not only more sanctified , but more potent than the pike and the sword —( tremendous cheering . } But when we remember the glorious spirit of justice to our oppressed country , Ireland ,

      to our owo loved island of Borrow , " evinced ever sincei she came to her throne by our benign and beloved sovereign lady , Queen Victoria , what would Irishmen be but recreants to honour , to gratitude , and to manhood , unless our millions were as ready as our leader , O'Connell himself , to pour ont their heart ' s blood for her safety if it were necessary , as well as forming themselves Into a police ; to keep vigilant surveillance ove ? all plots and conspiracies against her life , which God , in his divine mercy , preserve against her enemies—( hear , hear . ) Oh r what a glorious woman ! under the guidance of the illustrious , royal liberal , her wncle , the Dnbe of Sussex , she was inspired by the most resplendent spirit of constitational

      liberty ; and in all the private relations of life , as wife , mother , daughter , and friend , her character is utter perfection ,. Remember her oanflict with Peel , in order that sfee should not be separated from those noble ladles to whom : she was bound by the ties of private friendship—( great cheering ) . Of another trait of her Majesty ' s august nature , I pray permission to say a word . In Shakspere's Tempest , when Prospero is spokeb to of the brave son of the Prince of Milan , he replies by telling of the V snore braver daughter" of that prince , I take from Shakspere the form of expression , and apply it to Q , ieen Victoria , and a " more braver daughter" than that royal lady iiever had royal prince Since the Creation Of the World ; Bid her cheek blanch

      when Bhe was flre 4 at by Oxford ? and did she quail , and seek with trepidation to secure herself within the precincts of her royal palace in London , or to throw herself within the towers of Windsor Castle , the royal fortalice of Eugland ? No , she did not ; but like a royal heroine , worthy of the name of Victoria , and an affectionate daughter together , Bhe drove direct to the residence of her mother , so that , throwing herself upon the maternal bosom , she might inperson give assurance that the handof the assassin had failed in its baleful pnrpose . God save and protect her J I call upon you ; geutlemen , to rise and address to God , with . solemnity , the national anthem after passing the resolution . The resolution was as fallows : —

      '' That we , the wardens of the Loyal Repeal body in this metropoils , do hereby unanimously pledge ourr selves never to receive into , or suffer to remain within our association , any person known to entertain sentiments of disloyalty towards her Majesty ; and that we further pledge ourselves to become , from this day forth , a watchful body-guard for the protection of her Majesty ' s sacred person , and to apprehend and deliver ; into the hands of the civil authorities any individual wha , at any time or in any place , shall dare utter i n our presence sentiments disloyal to our beloved Queen , or language calculated to excite others to do her ike slightest injury .

He liked ^ the Queen ; he would die for her ; and , indeed , next to his own wife , he loved her the most of any woman in the world —( loud laughter and cheers . )

      The resolution was then pat from the chair , and carried amid prolonged cheering . The national anthem , "Got Save the Qaeen , " was then stmp with enthusiastic feeling . Mr . ¦ O Gorman proposed the foiirtn resolution : ^ - " That the foregoing resolutions be read at the first ward meetings of the Repealers of this metropoliB , in order that all the members thereof shall be afforded the opportunity of giving to them that assent , by public acclamation , which their ardent and devoted loyalty must have convinced the world they have already given in their hearts to the eentlmeuts they express .

      MR . STURGE AND THE CHA . . KTISJ'S . OF NOTTixOHAM . TO THiB EDTTOB OF THE NORTHERN STAR .

Nottingham , through the inediara of your humble servant , poblicly plied ^ ed Mr . Sturge io ( fa whole of the principles contained in the People ' s Charter . It cannot be denied that Mr . Sturge is ot the free trade party , but . at the same time he ib opposed to the New Poor Law Bill . For myself , Sir , I am determined to agitate for nothing short of the principles contained in the document before alluded to ; neither the New Poor Lar ? , Corn Law Repeal , Factory Question , or any other " inove' * or crotchet , shall draw my attpntiou from the ¦ " one thing needful , " and which , when obtained , will put everything else in its proper place If my friend and brother , tJie " Old CharUst , " had carefally read the Start and watched the proceedings of the Chartists of Nottingham , he would have observed that no time was . lost in putting a strinjr or questions' , to Mr . Sturge : in fact , he bad not been in the town of Nottlnchahi half an hour before tb 6 said questions

      Were put to him , in the present of fifteen thouaahd persons ; when , without any hesitation "whatever , he declared that he perfectly agreed with us—my , that he went fartber than the Chartists proposed going . I am as much opposed to middle-class humbug and deceit as any man living .. I have suffered sufficient at the hands of the '' liberal and enlightened" middle class ; and I have strong - . faith-. that the " wotkiea" of . Nottingham . ' -will not be agalti entrapped into any balfand-half measurea , but will steadily and stedfastly push on for the attainniont of their political rights , let who Vrill oppose them . Trosting the above may prove satisfactory to our brethren in all parts of the country , I have the honour to remain , " A young Chartist" ot " <>! d Standing , " And , Mr .
