> TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN STAR . Chester Castle , July 1 st , 184 a Sir , —I have received your letter , containing an order for £ l , to be equally divided betwixt Timothy Higgins and myself . I am requested by Higgins to convey to you his very sincere thanks , and also my own ; and I hope you will inform tbe subscribers that we will do everything in our power to merit that kindness which the people of Denton have shewn to us , whilst laid up powerless , and ( but for suea places as Denton ) friendless within the walls of a gloomy and cheerless prison . I am happy to anticipate the pleasure I shall feel in visiting Denton in a short time , and in personally thinking those generous individuals who have not forgotten the advocate of equal rights and immediate rights for the labouring class .
A few weeks will bear me through the trials and restraints of a prison , and then I shall pursue the selfsame course I have hitherto done ; but I shall pursue it a second time with the firmness and increased courage of a man who knows the ground he is travelling over , and who feels that his cause is just—that his effort * will be saered , and that his success must in the end reward him for all his labour and his suffering . I haTe a great debt to pay to the coiinion enemy , and I will be a strict paymaster . I shall give , not only
What I OWe . but I Khali , in exchange for my five yearn ' bail , giro the Government a tecurtoy on the word of a man , snd on tbe honesty of a patriot , that I shall devote the day and the night , tbe months and the years , of my baildoiH , in forwarding that cause which I have lived for , and which I shall never fear to die for . I am ready for the task , although in justice to the people and to myself , I must advise peaceful but very energetic means to be adopted . You shall hear and jndge shortly . In the meantime , I thank you sincerely . Yours .
In the same cause , Very faithfully , P . M . M'Douall .

NORTH-MIDLAND RAILWAY OPENING . TO THK EDITOR OP THE NORTHKRN STAB . 8 rR , —If you happened to be one amongst the highly favoured portien of- the community who were permitted to share with the directors the many good things , external and internal , which were enjoyed on the day of private opening last Tuesday , no doubt you will be stimulated by such a mark of distinction , to afford all the information in your power next Saturday , for the second-hand gratification of the less favoured commonalty—the swinish multitude—who may have no other claim to any distinction at all , save that of having inTeated their money in the undertaking , a fact which the directors , who pocket a hundred a-ytar each—all , save Mr . William Beckett , who will not touch the coin—may possibly think a sufficient proof of folly to qnalify such claimants for exclusion .
Perhaps , however , you may not be above receiving a bint of what the great , excluded , and unfed rabble would like to know more particularly , and I , therefore , venture to classify a few questions , upon which information will be uncommonly gratifying : — I . Upon -what principle of selection and exclusion -were the inTitationa given ? 1 . Upon what principle of selection were a few shareholders admitted , to the exclusion of all the rest ? 2 . How many holders of twenty , thirty , forty , FIFTY , SIXTY shares each , resident in tha town of Leeds , were passed over without an invitation ? 3 . What sort of animals occupied their places ? 4 . Were they Blue or Yellow ? II . What is the qualification for a director ! 1 . Is experience in forming joint-stock companies considered a test of qualification ?
2 . Would an ex-director , secretary , or treasurer perhaps all three , but certainly the last—of a defunct metropolitan pluck-pigeon milk company be considered particularly qualified for the post of director ? . 3 . Is the fitness of the director for the post , or the fitness of the hundred a-year for the director the matter ot consideration ? III . When a secretary runs away with £ 1 , 600 , what sort of director is considered the most proper person to send after him ? 1 . Is it upon the old principle of " Set ¦ thief to catch a thief ? " or , ¦¦ -n 2 . Is it merely upon the other old saw of " Much cry but little wool V IY . How stand the shares in the late defunct
Metropolitan pluck-pigeon milk-joint-stock company ? 1 . Did the shareholders ever get a farthing ? 2 . Did the chief director , secretary , or treasurerperhaps , all three , but certainly iha last— ever pay more than a penny-farthing in the pound of his debts ? An interesting question was once put by an independent Leeds elector , I think it was at Famley , to Sir Wm . Moles-worth , upon his canvass , respecting the latter point of inquiry ; but the worthy Baronet , although he looked very suspiciously at bis canvassing companion at his elbow , could give no satisfactory reply . Perhaps , however , Mr . Editor , you may be able to throw some light upon this very mysterious point It threatens to become matter of intense interest—almost as much so as the man who Towed his right arm should drop from his body before he would vote for Sir William , and then went and Toted for him .
lam , Sir , Yours respectfully , A Shareholder . 2 nd July , 1840 .

TO THE EDITOR OP THE NORTHERN STAR . THE PEOPLE versus THE CONVENTION . Sir , —In looking over your valuable Journal , I have seen , to my no small astonishment , that it is recommended by one of your correspondents , that on the liberation of Messrs . Lovett and Collins from Warwick gaol , that delegates ought to be sent from all parts of Great Britain to Birmingham , for the double purpose of congratulating these gentlemen on their triumph over tyranny , and to recommenoe the Chartist agitation . Now , Sir , although I have the highest esteem for Messrs . Lovett and Collins , and approve of their proceedings in every respect , I think it would be impolitic in the highest degree , while the country ie bleeding at every pore , to attempt to get up anything like a festival , or a demonstration , ( on this occasion ) of their eonduct .
A notice has recently appeared in the columns of the Star , calling a meeting of delegates , to assemble in Manchester , on the 6 th of July , which meeting has been postponed to the 20 th . It is reported that an attempt will be made by those to adjourn the anticipated meeting to Birmingham , and should those who have such an object in view carry their point , the people will be completely disgusted , as all the small villages will be deprived of an opportunity of delivering their opinions throngh their representatives , on account of their inability to pay the expense of a mission to Birmingham—in fact , the Radical world will look upon it , should such a proposition be made—as that the only desire of
their leaden was "to have a spree" on the enfranchisement of Lovett sod Collins . Our time . Sir , is of far too much value to M wasted in idle display ; our all is oast upan the fcnard ' of a die ; " and , perhaps , the world ' s happiness or misery , as I am certain that of our own country does , depend solely on the exertions of those who are called together at the present momentous crisis to take into consideration , which would be thrmost expeditious method of making the Charter the law of the land : for my own part , I do not think this onght to be one of the considerations of the intended meeting of delegates ; but simply to appoint a few persons in whom they could place confidence ; who should make this most important of all enquiries the subject of their continual investigation , and direct the people how to pursue the most
beneficial methods of action from time to time , I perceive your correspondent from South Durham informs us that they do not intend to send ' any Delegate to the projected meeting , aa their organisation is going on as well as need be . This is all very well , but our friends in the north have forgot to tell us what they are organising for ; they seem to forget entirely that the present Delegate Meeting has to come to some decision what must be done when the people are organised—that is the vital question . The Convention came to no decision ; hence their unpopularity . It won ' t do to say we intend to make the Charter the law . The masses may be organised in a very short time , but to what point in the compass of reform is their energies to be directed ? Let some visible channel be pointed out through which their unity may be made available to make the Charter a part of the constitution , and then blame them if they do not act .
A Mr . Barraclough , of Salford , has furnished us with a plan of organisation , which , he gays , was consigned to him b y Mr . R . J . Richardson ; at the head of which , as Grand Marshal , he { purposes to place some one of the mis-called Radical Members of the House of Commons , and , according to his arrangement , a number of men is to Bit every year while the Parliament is sitting . Oh , ye hard working men of England , how long will ye be gulled with such preposterous humbug ! Put your head in the lion ' s mouth , and then ask , does he wag his tail ? Did any man ever hear of such reformers who are wanting you to elect a " Grand Marshal" from amongst men of high standing in society—nay , from amongst the very rapacious cormorants who sit passively by night after night , and Bees you reduced to
the lowest depths of poverty , without daring to open their mouths on your behalf , or on behalf of your virtuous advocates who are now in gaol , for striving to shew jou how to gain entranoe to the temple of political feguality , through the paths of peaee , industry , and temperance . Another plan is , I see , laid before you by the tlele-«» tes recently assembled at a meeting in the West Riding of York , which ends in a Convention . Now , Sir , any of these plans for organising the people would answer the purpose if carried ouf ; but when the people areorganisea , who ike to guide then * } —where is the power that should directvthsm 1 Is it to be an open Convention , wtiotie e $ 4 ty . ' 1 pii $ « r may be Beized any minute ? Where , th « n , 3 a your centre of action ?—where your directing power 1—where yonr plans ?—where your organisation I Away with such fallacy .
" There is a tide in the affairs of men . Which , taken at the flood , oft leads t » fortune . " But this tide-time must be closely vf atoned , and who can render you ajiy aid by watching the progress of tbe political flood through the ban of a priaondoor aa if ' eargos O'Connor is now viewnur your proceedings from York . Besides , Sir , the people will not support a Convention . They have had the most indubitable proofs that many who sat in the late Convention only wen * there for personal profit ; and now that the public coffers are empty , Borne are to be found in the ranks of the Corn Law repealers , some in America , the honest few in gaol , and others striving to get up not her job of the same sort , to fleece the people
Let not my Chartist friends say I in too fastidious or too firmly wedded to my own plans and notions—I can assure them , I am quite willing to follow , if any man , or set of men , will lead ; but I have been following twenty years , and am now decidedly of opinion , that if ever the operatives of this or any other country desire to be free , they most do their own work , and Dover depend on my Lord this , or Sir John the other ; for as they have to make everything , surely they possess sufficient wit to protect everything . Bat the men of "high tton / Jing , whom Messrs . B . and R . recommend you to elect 6 /
as . Ma , will never allow you to conserve anything you produce for your own benefit but what they think proper ; and hence , as soon as all or any of your plans are laid before them that hate the most remote tendency to give yon any control over the produce of your own toil , steps are taken to counteract jour intentions ; or , if you become troublesome , you are Bent to prison , to intimidate others , and prevent them pursuing * similar objects . I have no doubt that many may think that some substantial proof of public sympathy is due , and ought to be given to Lovett and Collins : aad so do I ; bat let that te a oonsidentioa for the Central

Committee , when appointed . They cannot surely be so seifiBh _ aa to expect that . the whole nation must be convulsed from the Land s-end to John-o ' -Groats , on account of their emancipation ; besides there are more than two hundred men . equally deserving and equally virtuous , in gaol , who will certainly think themselves ill-used , and with good reason , if the same respect is not paid to them all on their liberation , when they are all charged with one crime , and all suffer alike . In conclusion , I would wish my Chartist friends to ponder well before they decide in favour of another Convention , and to think upon the disastrous consequences attending the last—the immense expenee attending Buch a proceeding , besides the cer-3 pamittee , when appointed . They cannot surely be
tainty of many of them being Bent to prison , if they attempt anything effective . I do not wish any man to violate the law as it Btands ; but if we suffer ourselves to be hemmed in on all sides by the statutes now in existence , away with the idea for ever of anything like a really beneficial , or what I consider a Radical Reform . Let the laws of moral propriety and evea-handed equality be your guide . Do not allow yourselves to be deluded by the frothy palaver of the few middleclass men who have crept in amongst you , and many of them , I fear , with the most nefarious designs . Those who have the vote , and can live comfortable , hpve little fellow-feeling with the ignorant ploughman , or the intelligent , though starving , manufacturing operative . There may be a few good men amongst them , but I fear they are like angels visits , "few and far between ;' and although a Burgeon
may be a good and a humane man , and feel for the sorrows of his patients , yet he cannot tell the full amount of what the unfortunate sufferer feels on whom he operates . So it is with onr middle-class friends ; they may pity , but they cannot feel as we do . Once more then ,-I-charge you , avoid the quicksands of another Convention , ae we were all but ruined by the former one . Form a " Central Committee" of five or seven , in whose hauds will be vested all the responsibility ; let them be unknown , except to each other , and then they may enjoy liberty , and live to perfect the great work of our emancipation . ¦ - , Should you , however ,, decide to act otherwise , I sincerely hope yon may succeed ; but atould your efforts prove nugatory , you will wish , when perhaps it is too late , you had taken the a'dvice of A ~ &EPUBUCAN .

Hogg answered that as yet no instruction for the purpose indicated had been sent out . : ' . In the adjourned debate on the Report of the Sale . of Beer ( No . 2 ) Bill , a clause , moved by Lord Sandon , for preventing the consumption of beer on the premises in houses hereafter to be licensed for the first time , -was opposed by the Chancellor ot the Exchequer , as involving a total repeal of the Beer Act , and as leading to the old abuses .

Mr .

SPAIN . PROSPECTS OF A TERMINATION OF THE CIVIL WAR . —SURRENDER OF CABRERA .
( From the Sun of Wednesday . ) By extraordinary express from Paris , we learn that Cabrera crossed the French frontier at the head of 1 , 500 followers on Monday , having narrowly escaped being taken by the Queen ' s troops . At first it was reported that he was actually made a prisoner by General Concha ; but a telegraphic despatch from Bayonne , received by the French Government , removed all doubts of his being a prisoner in France . The Carlist Chief , Palacioa , had been obliged to surrender to the Queen's Generals at Lanr , after vainly endeavouring to reach the frontier . Cabrera will probably be sent to Paris , where Balmaseda arrived on Saturday night . Berga has
by this time surrendered , so that the flag- of Don Carlos does not wave over a single fortress capable of resisting the attack of an hundred men in all Spain . The war is ended—the triumph of the Constitutionalists ia complete . Spain needs repose , and the healing influence of laws wisely administered , to restore her to her just rank among the nations of Europe . We trust that the Liberals , now that victory is theirs , will not abuse a power with which they are entrusted for the national welfare . May they have the magnanimity to forget the errors of the past , and the prudence to devote themselves to the promotion of the happiness which an enlightened system of Government is capable of realising for the future I - -.. . _

A Lunatic Visitor to thb Queen . —For some months past , the attention of the police on duty at the Palace has been directed to the movements of a German , who has never failed to be present when the Queen and Prince Albert left the Palace . -His name is Patham ; he is a German by birch , aud is about thirty-eight years of age . He says that his studies have consumed all his means , and he left his country to obtain patronage . Having written a Latin Grammar ( which he invariably carries with him ) , he expected the Prinoe would patronise his work ; and understanding that her Majesty was but
lndinerently acquainted with the classics , he was desirous to become her instructor . The notice of Government being called to the acttous of this man , who though up to that time had been harmless , but who might eventually commit some outrage , an inquiry was instituted on Friday last at the Home-office as to the state of the man ' s mind . The examination lasted until nearly six o ' clock , when the uufortunate maniao was taken by Inspector Russell , one Of the Palace officers , to Bethlehem Hospital , where be will be confined until some communication can have been made to . his friends in Germany .
