      Disease -amosg Cattle . —We regret to have to state , that a disease of a- more malignant character than the one cattle was attacked by last year and the previous one , is Tery prevalent at present , and lias proved fatal in a great many instances : in fact , J 5 uad « ds ci caule hare already fallen ficJina to it . Thelungs are the chief seat of the disorder , so that medical asastance has rarely proved of any utility w recovering the animals affected . Such as die , on being opened , have their longs completely decayed . The prognostics of the disease are a short conthmouB congb , accompanied bj a heaving of flie sides . — Drogheda Journal . ,

BB . 0 THEB ChaBtists , —According to the resolution of tha last delegate meeting , the next meeting for the East and North Biding was to be held at Pocklington , on Sunday , the 21 st August ; but in consequence of the unavoidable delay which occurred in obtaining the services of Dsan Taylor , I would most respectfully suggest the propriety of delaying the meeting for oue month longer , aa the lecturer ' s time of engagement will not expire until the latter end of September ; I do not see that the delegates can do any business at so early a period .

      m > TO THE FIFTT-XINE DELEGATES WHO A FEW MONTHS BACK ASSEMBLED AT THE HO ? P 0 : LE INN , MANCHESTER / AND TOTED FOR THE CHARTER . Bsotheb Chartists- —Ton appointed me , in connection with Mr . Monis , to get up the placards announcing the meeting , and lJke-wiBe to see tbat the saroe was advertised in three of the Manchester papers , which was duly attended to . After the triumph had been gained , 5 ou , or rather a portion of yon , assembled and agreed that you ¦ woxil J pay one half of the expence incurred in getting up the meetings , and it was also ¦ understood that Mr . Morris , by his own consent , would procure the other half .

      A resolution was passed at a subsequent delegate meeting , authorising me to mate out what I conceived to be a fair levy for each delegate . The whole of the expences amounted to £ 5 12 s . ; tne half of -which I are responsible for . I made a calculation of -what would cover the debt , namely , Is . 61 . per head , and published the same in the Siar . A few have attended to their duty , whilst the many have neglected to do bo . The parties to -whom toe above sum is still owing , now call upon me to se « that beta the aoYertfsements and placards are settled for . Net being able at present , to p ^ y it myself , nnther knowng the address of

      those who yet owe their portion , I have no other alternative than either to receive the balance of those to ¦ whom the money is owing , or to mate this public appeal to you—requesting yon to come forward and discharge the deht , or at least , as I have given all my tronble gratis , to take the responsibility off my houlders . All that I have to say , so fax as I am myself concerned , is that I have done my duty . 1 have suffered great anxiety of miad , and have been at considerable trouble and expense in trying to collect the money . This la the tJrird time I have had to mention the circumstance through the Siar .

      The conviction on my mind is , tbat many of those who were delegated have neglected to bring the matter properly before their constitutnto , otherwise the trifling sum of Is . 6 d . from each body would certainly have been paid . To prevent any blame "being attributed to those "who immediately came forward wiih their share , I here give both their names and the sum which each body has paiJ . Hetherington and Lees mechanics , 3 s . id . ; painters , 3 s . ; Salford Chartist ? , 2 s . 6 d . ; bricklayers , 2 s . 6 d . , fo . t , tUa cutters , 2 s . 6 d . ; glass cutterB , Is . 6 d . ; hydraulic papers , 33 . It will be seen from the above that the total amount paid is 16 s , 4 d . towards £ 2 . 63 . ; and likewise that some have paid above their share .

      Brother Chartists , circumstances compel me to inform you that I shall leave Manchester , and probably the country , after tha 16 th of August ia over ; and it ia mj earnest desire that the debt , be discharged . I came hitber honourably , and could like to leave with the same understanding . J ^ et no one blame me for his own neglect ; four months is surely sufficient time to be allowed to pay the paltry sum of ana shilling and sixpence . Let him ask himself whether it is right for me to pay it , ot beat the blame of it 3 not being paid . In order to come to s settlement of this , to me , -very unpleasant affitir , I hire suggest that those who have paid their quota would immediately take up the matter themselves , procure the Siar -which contains all the delegates * names , find out their addresses , and appoint some one to-wait upon them , and thus bring up the defaulters .

      I certainly am very sorry to be driven to tha necessity of mentioning this affair again , but still it would be a disgrace to have left without making yon acquainted with it , Trusting that the step I hav « recommended , if carried out , will rectify the matter , and thus prevent any further mention of it publicly , I remain , as over , a determined advocate of liberty , Your Brother Chartist , July 26 th , 1842 , WH .

      HOUSE OF LORDS , Tuesday July 26 . The second reading of the Poor Law Continuance Bill was moved by The Dnke of Wellington , who reminded the Honse that he hp . < l supported the original measure , ¦ whose necessity and importance had been confirmed by its operation and btDeflcial results , thongb ne objected to some of its details , such as ths building of the econncus union ¦ woTfchouses . Earl Stanhope spoke at considerable length , and ¦ with great vehemence , against the Bill , which , he contended , would so disgust the working classes as to lead to a revolution . He moved that the Bill be read a second time tbat day six months . Lord BaotGHAM censured Earl Stanhope for his declamatory appeals to the passions of the people , and his prophecies of rebellion . The working of the ? few Poor Law waa a sufficient test of its value .

      Earl Staxhopes amendment was negatived -without a division , the Bill being then read & second time ; and after some other business , the House adjourned .

      HOUSE OF COMMONS . —Tuesday , July 26 . After a discussion and a division en a private bill , Sir Robert Peel intimated , in reply to Sir Francis Bnrdett , that the Government mean to carry out a declared intention of the late Qovernmet , of causing monuments to be erected to the memories of Sir Sydney Smith , Lord Extnouth , and Admlial De Saumarez . Mr . BrotheBTOS regretted the disposition to promote and glorify the arts of war , in opposition to those of peace . Mr . Hawes also intimated his intention of meeting the proposal , when it Bhonld be made , with an amendment for a monument to the memory of Watt , & . c < tc . Mr . Kemble made some observations , ¦ vindicatory of the Rer . Henry Melville , whose character he considered to have been attacked by the mode in which a quotation from a sermon had been adduced and commented on by Mr . Milner CHbson .

      Mr . MiLNES Girsox hsd not intended any per-Bonal reflection on Air . Melville , whom he respected ; but thought , at the same time , when clergymen undertook to teach political economy from the pulpit , the Church should lay down a standard to guide them in the discharge of thair functions . Sir R . H . INGLIS coHid not sgree to the proposition that clergymen should be responsible to Parliament foi their sermons , or that the Church should construct articles of political economy . The first order of the day waa the third reading of the Colonial Passengers' Bill Mr . HaWES , objecting to a clause in it , raised a discussion on the subject of the transportation of Hill Coolies from India to the Mauritius . The debate -was shared in by various members , Mr . Hawes binMself , Mr . Bankes , Mr . Ternon Smith ,

      j Mr . B Baring . ; Mr . Mangles , who argued in favour of I tiae permission of -the immigration of Indian labourers ; I and Air . Hogg , who strongly censured Lord Slanley for I BothariDg pursued a fair and straight-forward course j in the matter , first in his opposition to the late Government , and his present adoption of that which he had formerly condemned . Air . Hogg also contended that Lord Stanley had not adopted a impactful coarse towards the House , inasmucli as by an order in Council be bad initiated this very prastica of the exportation of laboortr a , asd afterwards callad on the Legislature to sanction it Mr . Hogg r ? ea not opposed to a voluntary emigration auder regulations % vhich would effectually secure that the Indian labourer knew before he quitted his home where he was going to , and tinder what c # nditions .

      Lord Sxauley recounted the whole proceedings attending this Hill Cooly transportation from its commencement , defended his coaduct in ^ elstion to it , and entered into a lengthened statement . U * show that the Governsie . rifc , in sanctioning Hill Cooly a migration , were doing eo under regulations which would prevent all the former evils , and promote the benefit a'&e of India and the Mauritius . . Sir R . H . Ixglis -was not convinced by I » wd Stanley that this measure would be beneficial to thv ignorant and defenceless natives of India . . Mr . HUME , on the contrary , thought it was sv " absurd to restrict the natives of India from emisraiioV , as it ¦ would be to confine Irishmen or Scotchmen to the i * native countries . After a few additional observations from one or . two other Members , the House divided , -whan the clause was retained by 118 to 24 . The 3 ill was then read a third time and passed .

      Oa the third reading of tho Assessed Taxes BUI , Mr . G . W . Wood complained that a clause to correct an error in the Income Tax Act had been introduced into ifc darirtfra former stage of the measure , at a period of the sitting ef the House ( half-past two ia the morning ) when the Members bad . either gone away , or were naturally somewhat inattentive . This * aW a detultry conversation on midnight lgg >» M *"" , on the clause itself , and on the business aptitude of the present Government , soon after which the House adjourned .

      Frightfdx Occubrewce om the bivbb Medvtat , heak Chatham . —Seven Livis Lost . — ' On Monday forenoon last an occurrence 6 " f a most painful and distressing character took place on the river Medway , between Chatham and Sheernesa , occasioned by a man-of-wax 8 gig caps-zing , by whiflhi we regret to say , seven persons belonging to her Majesty ' s surveying steamer Shearwater met with a watery grave . On inquiring into the circumstances it appears that soon after eight o ' clock en Monday morning Lieutenant CudUp of the steamer above mentioned , in company with Mr . T . Corral , the surgeon , left SheerneBS in the captain * s gig for the purpose of proceeding to Chatham Dockyard for a supply of provisions and stores , and also to witness

      the launches of the Goliath eighty gun ship , and the "Virago steamer . Six of the Shearwater ' s crew went with them , and it seems on their clearing Scangate Creek , about three miles below Sheerness , a sail was hoisted , and all way made on the boat bo as to reaoh Chatham early . All went on favourably until they arrived at the point in Jolly , or Pincup Reach ( near Gillingham , about eight miles from Chatham ) , when a sudden squall caught the mainsail of the lugsail jnst as the boat was rounding the point , and before there was time to bring her to , the sail fouled round the halyards and mast and instantly capsized , precipitating the whole of . it ' s crew into the river . The scene that ensued is described to have been one of a mostaeouising description . Thereisnodoubtmany

      of the unfortunate creatures , who were : swimmers ,, could hare saved themselves , but the whole of them Lieutenant Cudlip excepted , got entangled , in their efforts to escape , with the sails and ropea , Consequently they perished by being drawn down with the boat—she having at the time several hundred weight of ballast in her . Lieutenant Cudlip was s-tting along with Mr . Carrol in the stern part © f the boat steering , and at the moment of her overturning he contrived to throw himself out beyond reach of the sail , and thus escaped being drawn down by the rest of his eompauions . Fortunately he caught hold ot the backboard of the boat , which by somffrneans oad been detached , aad thia kept him from sinking . He , however , was floating about for upwards of three quarters of an hour before assistance came up when the Queen Victoria steamer , which left Chatham at twelve o ' clock , bore down and picked him up ; but

      he then was in a most exhausted condition , and evidently would have expired but for the kindness and attention of the master and crew of the steamer . The vessel brought to for some time in the hopes of securing some of the others , but none of thfim appeared above the surface of the water . The Victoria then proceeded to . Sheernes , wnere Lieutenant Cndlir / , Was Conveyed on board the Shearwater , which is lying off the Royal Dook-yard , where he remains in a dreadful condition . Directly on the - intelligence reaching Sheerness , a number of vessels started off to the place where the occurrence happened , and commenced dragging for the bodies of the unfortunate sufferers ; but up to the period of the Dake of Sussex steamer leaving Sheerness yesterday forenoon none had been found . The event has produced the deepest sensation at Chatham and Sheerness . The Shearwater steamer only left Woolwich on Sundav last . —London Paper , Wednesday .

      Whirlwind . —About five o ' clock on Tuesday evening last , the inhabitants of Birkenhead were alarmed by one of these unfrequent visitations of Providence . Not a breath of wind was felt at the lime— " every leaf was at rest "—wiien suddenly a loud roar was heard , resembling the falling of . waters down a calaraot . This noise continued for about two minutes , when the wind came from the southeast , apparently embracing enly about eight yards in breadth , and its force was so powerf' al that it beat

      down everything before it , shaking the houses it passed to their very foundations , and throwing up the water in the pits to a height of three or four yards . Providentially no other injury was done than the breaking of some windows , and throwing down bricks , slates , &c . The passengers by the Chester train were coming up Jay-street at the time , and many of them wero thrown upon the ground by the wind , and others had their umbrellas tora to pieces . The effect of the whirlwind was not felt more thau three minutes . —Liverpool Mail *

DEFEAT OF THE ANTI-C 0 I 4 N LAW AND COMPLETE SUFFKAG ^ PARTY . The Anti-Corn Law men made thoir final struggle in Coventry , on Tuesday last . For a week previous they had posted the town with bills , announcing & meeting to be held in the county Hall , which were headed , Starvation ! Starvation 1 ! Starvation !! I and called on the people to attend in their thousands , and unite for the purpose : of obtaining the only remedy now left for the people ' s distress—Complete Suffrage . ¦ " ' ¦ . } . : ~ ;;¦ ¦ ¦ / : ¦• : . - ' ::: \ ' , . ' :. ¦ . ¦ " ¦ ¦ ; ' - : ' : ¦ : ¦ " .: A letter , inclosing one of the placards , was forwarded to Mr . White , of Birmingham , whioh was read by him to a Chartist meeting , upon which it was . resolved that he should comply with the request contained in the letter , and proceed to Coventry on the day of meeting , as it appeared that great exertions were being inade to thrust' the Complete Suffrage movement before the country , under the ; sariotibn of the men of Coventry , V : ;

      At twelve o'clock * the county Hall was crowded , whilst hundreds were ; outside the doors who could not gain admission . Mr . Libley Whittem was unanimously called to the chair , The Chajkman briefly ; alluded to the object for whichthemeeting was called , and introduced . Mr . rAuNTON , who rose to move the first ^ resolution , which was a declaration of the distress-. - which existed throughQUt the land . The speaker dwelt at some length on the misery endured by the people , and concluded by moving the resolution . Mr . BmoMFiEm seconded the resolution ; which w ' as carried unanimously . ' ¦ ' ..- ¦ : " --- ¦ The Rev . S . Watts , Baptist Minister , then moved the following resolution : —

      "That , in the opinion of Ihis meeting , the evila eattttterated are ma inly attributable to class legislation . That the restricted and unequal distribution of the electivp franchise , and the absenee of any efilcient protection in its exercise , have enabled the landed interest , leagued with the representatives of other pestilent monopolies , to - . obtain ' - a paramount ascendancy in Parlianaent , thereby enablitg them to sacrifice the interests of justice and humanity to their sordid views of personal aggrandisement . " Mr . Jacob Brow ETT seconded tho resolution , which was put from che chair and unanimously agreed to . It i 9 riecessary . to state that the crowd ontsidia the hall was so great that the mGeting was adjoumed to St . Michael ' s churchyard , which adjoins tho County Hall ; The speakers addressing them from the windows . - - ¦ . " . ' :-, - ' - . ' : ' ' - ' " •/¦ : / ' " ... " ¦ ' ; ¦ ' : ' ¦ ' . ' . ' . ;

      Mr , David Buckney moved tho third resolution , which gavo rise to the opposition of tho Chartists ; it was as follows : . "Tliat in the opinion of this meetiDg the opening of the ports for the free importation of corn would be productive of immediate relief ; but , that the only permanent security i ' or the people against the crying evils iuflicted by unjust legislation is to be obtained from a House of Commons representing the whole people , and elected upon tke principles laid down in the dOcuuieut called the People's Charter , and . adopted by the conference of the middle and working classes , held in Birmingham , in the month of April last . " ¦ .. '¦ ' .- ; Mr . Cash seconded the resolution .

      Mr . Pkter Hoey then addressed the meeting , and was loudly cheered . He proceeded at great length to show that the free importation of corp would hot produco the benefit which the resolution asserted . He objected to the latter part of the resolution which referred to the ; Birmingham Conference , and eaid it was got up for the purpose of proping up the Cora Law Rspealers . He also pointed out the immoase quautny of land which was vincultivatedi as a means of supplying labour and food to the starving people , aud said that the Charter alone could remedy the existing misery ; The rain which was falling for upwards of an hour , now increased eo much as to compel the meeting to adjourn to the County Hall , and after the confusion had ceased which was caused by the ruFh to obtain good places , ; ;

      Mr .

If they were Chartists , let them fall into the ranfcB of the people and be elected to ofiice if they were to take an active part . If they refused to do so , they were not Chartists . Who had authorised the ; parties present to take the course they were then pursuing \ He had not authorised them ; and he was deteiaiined that anything brought forward by'theru which was not in strict accordance

      with Chartist principles , should meet wUh his dis ^ approval . The workinJt men of England had been too often made the dupes of designing parties , and lest the last ) sentence contained in the resolution , might : be construed into an approval of the Complete Suffrage movement , he was resolved to take the sense of the meeting ; on it , lest it should go forth to the world that the men of Coventry were in favour of' the Complete Suffrage movement . He advised the working men to stand firmly by their owii organisation—the National Charter Association , and never again to place power in the hands of the middle classes to deceive them . Mr . Stoddart concluded by movint ; : — " ¦ ¦;¦ : '"'" ¦ ¦ ¦

( Loud cheers . ) He was

      rejoiced at the . opportunity which was ; afforded him of explaining his views for himself without being subject to the disboiiest colouring of a Whig or Tory nowspapor . The working men of England had assiRted the middle classes to get the Reform Bill . They were led to expect an improvement in their condition : tbron ^ h the operaiion of that BiJL , But had they derived the promised benefit ' : ? ( No . ) Let the oppressed and impoverished hand-loom weavers of Coventry answir- ^ had it increased thoir Wages ? ( No . ) No , on the contrary , the very men whom they had struggled to invest with power had proved their bitterest foes . Had they not passed the Poor Law Amendment Act ? ( Cheers . ) : Had they not filled the land with police spies and bludgeon men ? And

      now , he would ask those gentlemen who wanted to repeal the Corn Laws , how wa ^ it that they who were talking of giving the poor man a big loaf supported the New Poor Law , which allotted a pauper five ounces of bread for a meal"t ( Loud and continued cheering ) . If they really wanted the Charter why not join' with the working men to obtain it 1 Why no : join the National Charter Association Why talk about Complete Suffrage 1 The People ' s Charter was Complete Suffrage , but Complete Suffrage was cot tho Charter . Atthe time that O'Connell was returned for the county of Clare , he avowe < i himself a lladicai Rofprmer , and was congratulated by Mr , Cobbett on the occasion , but afterwards at a meeting in Dublin , he declared

      himself a CoMstitutional Reformer , and C | obbetfc remarked veiy justly , that Mr .

A mare isa , horse but a horse isnot a , mare "—( laughter ) r-SO it waawita Completa Suffrage . Th «> y might be deceived by that term , but there was no . means of deceiving them whilst they abided by the Charter . He than went on at great length , to shew the meeting the manner in which the various political tricksters took up principles which were popular as a means '" , oi gaining their own selfish purposes , and laid them down whenever it suited them . He fihewed up the object which the middle classes had in Tievf , namely , the extension of trade , and said that the people of Manchester had the cotton

      trade extended to such a degree , that they were scarcely able to live , and he would appeal to themselves and ask whether the increase of the ribband trade had bettered their , oohditiou 1 Had they not been reduced time after time until they were brought to ^ extremei poverty ? : ( Ves , that ' s righto Mri White proceeded "to expose tho fallacy of the propositions brought forward by the " Fr 6 e Trade " advocates , aad remarked that the ribbonds woven in Coventry went to decorate the heads of idlers , whilst their own wive ^ were in ragSi The doth woyen at Leeds was sen < ib clothe foreigners , whilst the men who mado it were almost naked ; He t herefore advised them to have nothing to do with the Complete Suffrageites or Corn Law Repealers , but to stand firmly by the Charter and the National Charter Association , and concluded by supportin , ' ? theameJidment .- " ' ¦ ¦ - ' ¦ ' - ¦ '¦' . ¦ r : ^ ' : " : . :- : ' -w .

      London Smithfiexd Market , MONDAY , JULY 25 . —Since the passing of the new tariff , much anxiety has naturally been manifested by graziers , salesmen , Ac , to ascertain the probable amount of supplies of stock which will be henceforth derived for this and other English markets from abroad . As yet , how * ever , not a single head of ether beasts or sheephas come to hand for that purpose , while we may be permitted to observe that the paragraph which found its way into the columns of moBt of the London and provincial press Jast week , to the effect that four bulls had been imported from tho upper part of the Rhine , under the existing regulations atthe Customs , has no foundation is truth . We admit ' that- the stock in question , which was of extraordinary ' merit .

      has come to hand , but they have been sent hither solely as presents to a noble house in th \ B country ; and , in order to verify our assertions , we have to state that a council order for their admission , duty free , as is usually the case in such , instances , had been lying in the metropolis at least a month previously to the present bill coming into operations That further supplies will como to hand we entertain little doubt , as by letters which reached ; us on Friday , we had advices of a few beasts having arrived at Hambarg for shipment by the steamer whioh was to leave that port on that day , and whioh is expected to reach the Pool this afternoon . Much caution is , we perceive , apparent on the part of the German , Dutch , and French

      owners of stock , many of whom have lately visited this market , in order to make inquih ' es into the value of things here . The arrivals of beasts fresh up today comprised 1500 short horns , &c . j from Lincolnshire , Leicestershire , Northamptoflsbire , and our northern grazing districts ; 300 Heretbrds , Devons , and runts from the western and midland counties ; 100 Soots , homebreds , and runts from Norfolk , Suffold , Essex , and Cambridgeshire ; 250 from other parts of England ; and 80 horned and polled Scots , but chiefly the latter , b y sea from Dundee . -The above bullock supplies being somewhat leBS than were those exhibited on this day week , and the attendance

      of buyers being rathsr numerous , the beef trade was steady , though no . t very brisk , and the prices had in some few instances an upward tendency . With sheep we were moderately well supplied for the time of year ; the primest old downs commanded a ready inquiry -at full rates of currency , but with most other breeds the trade was slow at last week's quotations . There was a large number of lambs brought forward , which hid a depressing influence upon the sale for them , and the late low currencies were with difficulty maintained .

      HOUSE OF COMMONS— Wednesday , July 20 . On the bringing up of the report on the Poor-Law Amendment Bill , Mr . Escorr moved a clause , that it shall be lawful for all Boards of Guardians of the poor in England and Wales to grant such relief as in their judgment shall be necessary to poor persons at their own homes , any order , rule , or regulation of the Poor Law Commissioners notwithstanding . He had taken great pains to get at what was the principle of the Poorlaw , but was still ignorant of it . If its principle were the denial of relief except in the workhouse , then he strenuously opposed it , and believed tbat it could not long stand . As a resident in an agricultural district , he knew from personal experience

      that tho in-door labour tect was productive of the very worst effects . The honest , hard-working labourer refused to go into the workhouse , _ and lingered 011 till poverty and disease broke him down , ¦ while the idle and profligate went into it , anU gotfat . He freely admit ; ed that there were evils contingent on the adoption of his proposition , but on the whole he thought that these evils were lesser in amount than those attending tha workhouse test . He knew instances in which Boards oi' Guardians violated tbo law by giving out-door relief , under the guise of loans which they never expected to . be repaid , and it was a shocking state of things to drive humane men to violate an Act of Parliament . He called on the House to adopt his proposition before a coming winter laid its iron eraap on the poor .

      On a division the clause was rejected by a majority of 90 against 55 .

      THE CHARTISTS . On reading the order of the day for going into committee of supply . Mr . T . Dcncombb rose , pursuant to notice , to move for a copy of the depositions taken on the trials of John Mason , a Chartist lecturer , and seven working men , at the late quarter sessions for the county of Stafford , together with copies of the indictments , the notes of the chairman taken at the trial , and the names of the magistrates and jury before whom they

      were tried aud convicted . The Hon . Member said that he regretted extremely that it became his duty to interpose between the Right Hon . Baronet and that duty which he knew gave the House bo much pleasure , he meant tho duty of voting away the people ' s money . ( Cheers and laughter . ) But this grievance was so urgent , the precedent was eo dangerous , that he had no alternative but to call the attention of the house to the facts stated in the . petition which he had yesterday presented from Stafford relating to this subject .

      Lord Sandon would put it to the Hon . Gentleman whether it waa quite fair to interpose on this occasion , when there was no one present who was con * versant with the subject . He suggested a delay of a day or two , in order that time might be given to communicate with the magistrates . That would be more convenient , and perhaps fairer . Mr . T . DtwcoMBE thought it was rather extraordinary thac the Noble Lord should ; interrupt him after the notice which had been on the paper a whole day . Fairness ought to be 6 hown , not to the chairman of the quarter sessions alone , but to the eight individuals who were now in Stafford gaol , having been , as he contended , illegally committed . If nobody in the House knew about , the circumstances , he would let them know . His object was that the House

      and thecountry should know what the working classes were suffering for their opinions . If these individuals had been tried at the assizes , or before any tribunal but the court of quarter sessions , they would have been honourably acquitted by the jury ; However , he was in the hands of the House , and if the Right Hon . Baronet wouid say , that on Friday or some early day he should have an opportunity of bringing thecas 9 forward , he should be content to waive the right he had to bring oa a question of grievance on reading the order for going into supply . He said that this w&s ' an unjust conviction , and the right of the House of Commons of holding inquest of public grievances would - be " at an end if these men were to be tried and convicted , aa they had been , without notice being taken of it .

      Sir J . Gbaham said , that it was clearly impossible that the committee of supply could close that night , and he thought that any other supply-day would , to the Hon . Gentleman ' s sense of justice , be much more advantageous for bringing forward this subject ; because , by that time , the chairman , and magistrates might bo communicated with , and both Bides of tho case be fairly presented to the House . Ha was not awareof the circumstances until last night ; when the Hon . Gentleman gave notice of his motion he was not aware that these parties had even been apprehended . There were no papers in his office that threw say light on the matter , it would , therefore , be utterly impossible for him to controvert any of the facts which the Hon . Gentleman might state . Any one who read the petition would see how grave were the charges it made ; there were charges against the constable , against the magistrates , and the chairman of the quarter sessions , who was accused of violating "his oath , and the jury of

      perjury . " More grave subject of consideration could . scarcely be brought forward , and , as he had already o . bserved , he was not now in a situation to enter uponif . .:-. - A ir . T . DTOCOMBEsaid . if the Right Hon . Baronet in t , be private communication he had beld with him VH&i evening , had not said that , the Gorernment vould not institute any . inquiry into the subject , and that he ( Mr . Buncombe ) must act upon hia own distaetion , he wonld not now have pressed the matter , nor would he do so , aa he undeKtood the Right Hon . Baronet to say that he Bhould have an opportunity on Friday ; >' Sir . J . G ^ aSam explained , that what he had said to the Hon . Gentlemaa was , that he would not make any engagement to enter into any sach inquiry , unless the petition contained gome charge against the magistrates or the constituted authorities . He repeated , that he would not enter into the inquiry unless he received some official communication impugning the conduct of the magistrates .
