" O ! ahame , -where is tty blush !" And this is the maa who sets op to be a public censor ~ a » iiistruc 4 ot in morals . Shade ef Soentes , what an insult ! And this is the person who would treat me with a kick into " obliTion , " beesase I haTe had ths hardihood and presumption t « cross his pathway , and dispute the rectitude of his pure proceedings .

      ETerything , howerer , does not appear " snfficientlj elear " , to fins genUtmaa ' s confused hr&tns , for while , as be asys , "&e moUTee of certain indiTiduala we bare an eye upon we can easily drrine , but not so of 101 ;" bo doubt he i » somewhat puzzled at not being able to niflersUnd the conduct ( in ths absence of facts ) of a jfencra like myself , with a family consisting of a wife ahd four small chUdres , without employment , and < &iog ahnont ertscj day on potatoes and salt , -with . occvisoally b led beninf to season them . Ita difficult to account far fhe eondnct of such an indiTidual but by the measure ot his own disreputable n * Jfl »> mg «« How such an one , iniheiace of porerty and hunger , dares

      • Send any one , much less the great and powerful—the Tery parties from whom alone he might expect employmeat ; he does not know how such a man dues L « poor and poStieally honest , and for thia Tery good reai&n , biican ' aa lie dreads poverty himself , is the slave of custom , and well paid for the course be pursues . And does he then think Ms philosophy the climax of all good ? Tes , and therefore infers that / must be paid lor what I haTe done , and by the Tories too . He has no t&CJ ; and I deny « £ yea , defy him to the proof . What I have done was without fee or farour , or the expecta tion ef any ; and , should be require it , I -will tell him the singular truth to his teeth .

      Batthe mentioning this word " teeth , " reminds me that " he has unmasked ths traitor , drawn my teeth , ' a ' PT'ihiKted my power and asQ-importauce , and conaigiitd metQ ohUrion for eTer . " This is boaiting with a witness—this is haSaoing before he is out of the " ogLjSM W * £ & % && ' "Xi ih ^ frer , this editor adds to his othaf ' aoqattements the ' glfta of a poet , I bit fanriah ^ Cin with a subject for the employment of his " mnse ^ to be called the " death and resurrection of WSliasi TtirV , " - who was kilt by an editor . And as to his hating drawn my teeth , 1 think he'll find to the contrary before I haTe done with him , as his party bare already seen to their sorrow ; that I am no mumbler the Totes which haTe been neutzalised will

      proTe . I will readily acknowledge that I did approve -of John Ayrey and his pretensions . cm . eight ; and this admission , I dsn say , is more than an hireling scribe would bare done ; bat Then I s ^ w the true character of tie Chartists , by whose opinion of Mr . Ayrey ' a principles ' I was deluded , as well as the conduct and character of pretended Chartists ; ia other words , I then saw . the bt £ ls chance of success my principles could bare at a public meeting , to whose decision Mr . Ayrey pledged himself . Would it not hare been mad ia any indrridjad , first , to pack a meeting with Honsebald SnffESge eosneiUon , and their followers , and then expect a majority of that meeting to Tete in favour of UmTctBaf'Sufcage and the Peopb ^ s Charter ?—what fool would risk principles so desr in such a way with his eyes open ? No , no , " a bird in hand " . is worth two in the bush . "

      It was only by * . h « circumstances that such an occasion produced that I could learn the true state of mind by which many of the professing Chartists were guided—everywhere encouraging Household Suffrage , eren contrary to their previously published resolutions , and cleartyTtb me , Verynfuch underrating the danger of such Tnan and ^ h *™* principles . It was in this that I was deceived , as expressed in the placard bearing my signature , and not in the arowed sentiments of Mr . Ayrey . However , success tha most complete has attended what I have done , and X am willing to submit to the charge of inconsistency . I am sorry that I was thus cheated , and promise to mind better for the future . " Let the galled jade wince , on withers are unwrung . " And do the wiseacres fanagtna that my fint approving made their sue-» ra tew certain ? Suppose I had always disapproved , bad I not the same power to resist and fi&attbeijpunyeffwt *?

      BRADFORD . Fatal Acchwnt . —It is our painful duty to report the death of two brothers of the names of Johb and Jesse Baldwin , the former 30 , and the latter about 19 yean of age ; by this melancholy bereavement , a distressed and widowed mother will sustain- the lose of two Bong , the younger of whom was her youngest child , and the succour and support of his aged mother ; the elder brother has left four young children and a widow in daily expectation of confinement , and we are sorry to say entirely unprovided for . It appears from what we hare been able to collect , that on Thursday night last , the workmen employed at the quarry had received 2 a . 6 d . as a present , from a stone-mason , who was in 4 ho habit of doing business with the master . The men fourteen

      in number , subscribed fid . each , out of which sum 28 . 6 d . was bud out in the purchase of meat and bread , and the remainder in beer . Shortly after seven o ' clock the two unfortunate brothers proceeded from , the cabin ( for that was the place where they feasted ) across the fields , it being considered the nearest way home , when , unfortunately , through the darkness of the night it is supposed they missed their way , aad fell into the deepest part of the quarry , a depth of about twenty yards . They were found text morning , by a person of the name of Clark , laid side by side , quite dead . The father of the nnfbrtunate individuals was killed upwards of twelve years ago by a fall of earth in a quarry . The funerals of the brothers took place on Tuesday last , and caused considerable excitement .
