Ibb Polish Besugees. To The Bmtob Of The...
IBB POLISH BESUGEES . TO THE BMTOB OF THE SOBTHESH STAB . Mt Sear Sir . —I wish to call your readers ' most serious attention to some few important considerations respecting the 232 Poles who are now at Iiverpool . 1 st . They a e all picked men—staunch and welltried republicans ; who can ill be . spared from tbe coming European war , and whose services meanwhile fare , in spreading republican principle * , were it only by example , will be of immense value to the cause of Eng li s h freedom .
2 nd . Our enemies are well aware of this ; and therefore it is that the base Whig government is endeavouring to starve these men into consenting to be transported to America ; therefore it is that Loid Dudley Smart ' s ( may tbe Men of Marjlebone mark limXsocietr of the ArhtosratieFriends of Polandtherefore it is that Liverpool magistrates and merekiiu ( chfc & y the supporters of Mr . Hume ' s Reform Bill ) are doing their utmost to second the execrable intentions of the government . 3 rd . We have little reason and no tight to expect tint the aristocrats and Parliamentary Reformers of other parts of the country will act very differently from their friends at Liverpool . As . at Liverpool there may be honourable exceptions ; but we must not depend upon the middle classes keeping these
Den . -lib . It will be a shame to Chartists , and a damna ; confession of the utter weakness of onr parly , tide Chartist body , taking it at the lowest ealcuitfon of 5 , 000 men , cannot support 232 of the inscribed . There is one way in which we can insure their apport . Not by leaving them to chance subscripioas which almost always fall short , bat by indieir hahgwranleeing the support of individuals . 1 * be Chartists of Great Britain will divide themselves
n ! o Relief Committees of twenty men , each com-Bittee undertaking to guarantee the support of one man , the work is done . Twenty times 232 is' 4 , 640 . [ believe there are 4 , 610 Chartists ; not one of rfiom ought to shrink from even the sacrifice of tupence a week to save Ms brother from starvation Sixpence a week is ten shillings a week for each ? ole—till he can learn onr language and obtain ISplovment . We would not keep such noble [ nests , oa even the poor fare of the wretched of onr wn land . Recollect it is not a life-burden , but a amporary hospitality . We would treat them like nests . I say this , not wanting sympathy also for
or own sufferers , aud with a full knowledge of the overly and scanty resources of my fellow countrymen . But there are emergencies when we can put Jrth an extraordinary strength . This is one . Has the Chartist body earnestness enough to tve their sympathy with European liberty tbis radical shape ? I will not doubt their response . * t twenty after twenty , as r a p i dly as p os s ibl e , orward their undertaking , signed with their lames , or the name of one authorised by tbe rest , o the Editor of the Aortfcern Star , who will forward the same to the Central Committee for the elief of the Refugees .
Itake twenty at sixpence each as an average , imply to show what may he done . But somehnes ten may be rich enough to guarantee tbe ne man . Sometimes thirty may duo their smaller tuus . Each man , too , will undertake for what he ip—one twopence , another sixpence , another a billing . Let men everywhere set about the work , ffid as soon as in any place a sufficient nnmber can ttaibine to guarantee one man , let their underaking be sent in . Ten shillings , too , I only name « eanse I mast fix a sum . But let each committee aaSe its own calculation . Simply all that is
waited is for 232 Chartists , in their own names , or " * names of any number of their friends with * hom they are joined , t o guarantee t he m a in t en a nc e Of 332 Refugees . Let me also be understood when I say guarantee , I do not ask for sixpence a week paid down ; 'but for the names of those who will undertake to be read y with sufficient for the support of one man , or » o modi as may be seeded to make up any deficipcr , whenever subscriptions fail or fall short . So Pu whenever there is any lack of means , tha Cental Committee may kn o w on whom -t o f a il ba ck f- ' . certain supply , till subscriptions come in
. Surel y the Chartist body can do this . If not , on a matter so close to their principles and to ieir feelings ftey are unable to thwart a rascally prernmera and its time-serving supporters—out *» tan do this , and I trustthey will . Honour to lose wiiose names shall stand first on the list os & Refugee Guarantee Fund . . Yours faithfully , Reside M a rch 2 1 , 1851 . W . J . Lisrox .

Mahchesteb;~Od. Snja3ay Evening Last, Mr...
Mahchesteb ;~ Od . Snja 3 ay evening last , Mr . Daniel Donovan was duly announced to deliver an address on that important subjeefcr"Registration . " Mr . John Sutton occupied the chair , and xesd Mr .. O'Connor ' s Letter from the Nsrthtrn Star . —W ^ Daniel Donovan gave & detailed account how the working classes might exercise , to a very great extent , the franchise . The lecturer enumerated the great resources now l ying dormant , owing to
the apathy and indifference of the people , in not registering their names on the register books . Mr . Donovan concluded a very instructive address , and received the applause of the meeting . —After the address , many very important questions were put to Mr . Donovan , who gave general satisfaction . —Mr . William Nixon , late of Manchester , made a feeling speech on meeting his old friends and acquaintances , and was very proud to meet them once more in their beautiful hall . Mr . Nixon then
referred to the policy of the Manchester Council , which he cordially approved of . Mr . Nixon then moved a TOte . of thanks to his friend and late fellow-prisoner , Mr . Donovan , for his very instructive address . —Mr . James Leach seconded the vote of thanks . —Mr . J . R . Cooper , bookseller , of Brid ge-street , next addressed the meeting , and referred to the address of the council . He was glad the council and members had adopted the line of policy he had recommended several years ago . Mr . Cooper then informed the meeting he had always consented to come amongst them when
requested , if he thought he could render them any service , and informed tho meeting he had had an interview with their secretary , requesting him ( Mr . Cooper ) to give a lecture , which he had consented to , and should name April 13 th for . his lecture . Mr .- Cooper then informed the meeting the reason he was there that evening ; it was on behalf of the Polish and Hungarian Refugees lately landed in Liverpool ; a committee was about to be formed , and he wished the Chartists to render them their assistance . Mr . Cooper resumed his seat greatly applauded , and a Pole addr essed the meeting ; after which the vote of thanks was carried unanimously ..
Manchester . —On Sunday evening last a meeting was held in the Cumberland-street Room , which was numerously attended , Mr . John Knight in the chair , who opened the business by . reading Mr . , O'Connor ' s letter from the Northern Star . Mr . Chambers delivered an instructive address upon the necessity of - Self-reformation , more especially among those who professed themselves Chartists , in order that the stigma of drunkenness , which had been applied to many of them , might be done away with . He then proceeded to defend Chartism from the attacks of
that portion of the Press , which pandering to the prejudices of the shopkeeping and middle classes of society , had endeavoured to blacken the character of Mr . O'Connor and those associated with him in the great work pf National Reform ; hoping by such despicable means to stem the progress of those principles for which that great , hut much persecuted man , had so long contended . He , though a shopkeeper , and doing an exteneive business , was not ashamed to avow himself a
Chartist , and his Chartist brethren might always depend upon his support , provided they continued to maintain tbe pre-eminency of their own creed—namely , " The Charter , the whole Charter , and nothing less than the Charter "—and concluded an elequent address by calling npon all classes of reformers to abandon intoxicating drinks , and thus prove to the government their hatred of exorbitant taxation , and their fitness for political enfranchisement . Thanks were then voted to
the lecturer and chairman , and the meeting ' separated . WniTJtCHiiEEi . —Mr . Wheeler lectured on Sunday evening at the Ship Inn , High-street , te a good audience . The chair was occupied by Mr . Knowles . Mr . J . Shaw also addressed the meeting . Fissbbkt . — Th e u s u a l weekl y meeting of the Chartists of this borough was held at their temporary p l a ce meeting , the Albemarle Coffee-house , Albemarle-street , St . John-street—Mr . Weedon in the chair . —Mr . Doublery le c tured on the " Rise and Fall of Man , " in aid of the funds of the
Association ; and , after an animated discussion , received the thanks of tbe meeting . —A resolution was also unanimously agreed to , expressing the pain and sincere regret with which the members had seen the pub l i cat ion of l et ter s si g ned "TJbi qniiy , " in a conte mp o r a ry periodic a l , t h e e ff e ct of which c ould only be to promote divisions in the Democratic ranks , and further , attributing the authorship of those letters to a notorious enemy of Mr . O'Connor . —[ As w e ha v e good rea s on t o beli e ve th at onr F ins bury friends are mistaken si to the writers of the letters in question , we refrain from inserting the same . — Ed . j V .

A Public Hebiisg was held on Wednesday evening , at the Institution , Carlisle-street , Portmanrnarket , which was addressed by Messrs . Watson , Capewell , Mantle , Graham , and Hunniball . A vote of thanks was given to the chairman { Mr . Milne ) , after which tbe meeting separated .
Chartist Agitation. A Public Meeting Was...
CHARTIST AGITATION . A public meeting was held on Tuesday evening at the British Institution , Cowper-strcet , City-road , to assist in creating an improved Chartist feeling in t he metropolis . . Mr . Bezer was called to the chair , and opened tbe business of the meeting in bis usual able sty le . Mr . Moss , of Derby , first addressed the meeting . Men were apathetic while trade was good , but be came Chartists when they knew not where to procure a meal for their subsistence . He thought the ? would soon experience a slackness of trade : and then
they would be loud in demanding political power . Every past agitation had been turned to the advantage of the middle class , and to the injury of working men . This should be no longer the case . Working men most look to their own affairs ; and be BO longer doped by those interested in taking advantage of their weakness and dissentions . Nature everywhere showered down plenty upon the human race . Man ' s bad law s d e stroy e d and perverted the blessing which might otherwise be enjoyed by all t he human famil y . The only means by which this state of things could be remedied was by obtaining the political freedom guaranteed by the Peop le ' s Charter . ( Cheers . )
Mr . Gray , of Nor t h . Lancashire , then spoke . They had met to contend for the establishment tf the reign of liberty and truth . The meeting w »» , in hit op inio n , a good one , bat numbers did not constitute the only element of success . Energy , dete ^ tion , and c ourage , were its chief essential requisites . He appeared before tbem as tbe representative of the band-loom weavers of hit district . Great poverty and misery was beirg endured by that body of men . At this period be believed they were the most
tyrannised over , and the worst paid class of men in Great Britain . He had tr a v ell e d t hroug h the various towns and villages in his district , and depic t ed scenes of misery that harrowed up the feelings of hi s audi e nc e , and caus e d loud bur st s of indigna t ion , e sp eciall y then he exposed the system of abatement by which their starvation wages were reduced still lower in amount . He concluded by earnestly appealing to them to unite and support the Convention .
Mr . KobiksOh , of B r adf or d , entered into an able analysis of the state of parties in this country , and showed the manner in which they attempted to cajole and mystify the working men . The peop le ' s pen tf were not treated with respect by others because they did not respect themselves . Things had bec o me so b a d , no t only in England , but also throughout the continent , that the question was not whether the people should rule , or whether they should legislate for themselves , but whether they should be allowed to live . The steamlord and landlord were at war in tbe Commons Home ; neither of tbem
eared anything for the people , further than to extract profit from their labour . The people boasted of their courage and their influence abroad . They could fig ht for their king and their country , but t h e y c ou ld never fig ht for tbeaselves . While they allowed the land to be the property of a few , t hey placed their lives at the mercy of those who held it . They had allowed a selfish class te usurp the land , the " lights and almost the air , and yet they boasted of their freedom . The speaker was loudly cheered . ThJtzsLtx aett addreised the audience , and , in aaah ^ ej & mMBer , called nson them to second the

cnuiU < n the Convention iueadeavoutia ^ once ^ agam toraisethebanner of Cfeartism . He , was gV" ""/ applauded . ' .. Mr . Watsok , of Newcastle . upon-Tyne , next addressed the meeting in an able and argumentative manner . The present wis the age of calculation , but be feared that tbe Chartift body did not sufficiently well calculate the . bearings of . the object they had to achieve ' , the power of their opponents , and the force it would be necessary to bring against them . They were met to endeavour to achieve that necessary result by laying down p lan s and measure s calculated to ensure the attainment ot their demands .- ¦
Mr . Manixb , of Manchester , who w as loudly ch e ered o n ri s ing , said that the future destinies of tbe country were in a great manner placed in their hands . They' bad heard from his brother delegates cases of individual and class oppression . He should speak upon the general question of the evil that tyranny perpetrated , not ' only on those who en : dured it , but likewise on those who inflicted it . He wished to raise'the standard of tbe movement to that high pitch of moral and intellectual dignity which would ' enable every man to be his own l e ader , and prevent for ever the treachery and duplicity of those who wished to lead them astray .
He had endured , in common with many others , incarceration in Her Majesty ' s prisons , and there was vet something in bis composition of the leaven of sedition which even the power of the government bad been unable to extract . For fifteen years the good bark of tbe Charter had braved the dangers of the political ocean , a nd t houg h storm after storm bad shattered the sails and damaged some of tbe rigging of the good old ship , yetsbebad approached nearer and nearer to the destined haven , and was , by the help of the people , ( which was the help of G } d ) destined speedily to arrive , therein . The speaker addressed the meeting at some length , and was greeted with unbounded applause .
A vote of thanks was g ive n t o t he Chairman , who acknowled ged the s ame , and the meeting separated at a late hour . A good collection was made in aid ofthe funds of the Convention ..

A public meeting was held on Monday evening , at the Lec t ure Hall , Greenwich ; the attendance was very good . Messrs . Capewell , Reynolds , Mantle , B e zer , and Finlen addressed the audience , and a good collection was made towards the Convention Fund . Mr . Lloyed occupied the chair . During Monday , Tuesday , and Wednesday evenings , numerous meetings were held in various parts of the metropolis , at which the delegates from the Country attended . On Tuesday evening no less than five public mretings were held iu the various me . tropolft ' an districts . '
South London Chartist Hall. A Public Mee...
SOUTH LONDON CHARTIST HALL . A public meeting was held on Wednesday ereninir at the South London Chartist Hall , Mr . Milne in the chair . ¦ ¦ ¦ . Mr . Fislin said he came there to give his honest views on their position as working men . He h a d listened in the Convention with no common feelings to the description of the state of poverty and destitution which prevailed in the provinces . When such wa s the s t at e of things , who ; with tbe common feelings of humanity , could be other than a Chartist ? The man who enunciated Democratic truths was the onl y r e al pa t riot , and they ought to destroy the present terrible system by all the means which their situation allowed them to employ . Reason was preferable to brute force , in
dispelling error . ' He then alluded to the admixture of the soci a l with tbe p oli t ic a l que s ti o n , a nd c a lled upon hi s audien ce t o e xpre s s a decided opinion upon the f a l se poli c y of t h e p a st , a nd t o decide th a t their social rights should not be neglected in future . The speaker was loudly cheered ; Mr . Watsok said he came from a coal district ; coal was plentiful and cheap at Newcastle but expensire in London . There was great rascality and oppression connected with the coal trade . ' Men often worked a whole day , a nd by th e s y stem of fine s w a s a t it s clo s e indebt e d to h i s employer . He thanked God that he was not a miner— -he was-a Chartist a s it w as , but if he was subjected to such ¦
imposition he knew not what he should be . The present was an age of progress . Governments were in some degree compelled to follow in its wake . Democracy did not partake of tbe spirit of selfishness ; its object was to spread happiness amongst the whole human family . Democracy would progress if its princip l es w e re c a rried in t o the every day concerns of . life . The world would then speedily 'become a world of love , peace , and joy . He then illustrated tbe power of union , by showing the manner in which the sailors had beaten the g ov ernment , as far as regarded their strike in the north of England . If the whole people followed their examp le they would speedily obtain the Charter . - <
Mr . Barkis said , he was forcibly struck with the contrast between the geniosand intellect he everywhere saw exhibited in the productions of working men , and the bad position they occupied in the social scale . A working man at Northampton whom he knew , worked f o r four d a y s four tee n hours a day on a pair of glazed - legs , ( boots ) to be sent to the Exhibition in Hyde-park . Of course he was a first rate workman to be employed on such a job , and the magnificent snm he received for his four days' work ' w a sonly 6 s . ( Shame . ) It was their own faul t th at they did not r e me d y t hi s st a te of things . :
Mr . Mantle said , he did not think that , on b e ing delegated from Manchester , he should have to o f f e r opposi t ion to any t hin g s a i d b y his bre t hren , the London delegates , but h e c oul d not allow t he observations to pass by which were made by Mr . Finlen , relative to the social question . The great difficulty with him was , how to include in a Social Propagandiara tho man of one idea and one proposition , and also the man of seven ideas and seven propositions . Let them agitate for the Nationalisation of Lan d , the Separation of Church and State , a nd all other reforms ; but do not let them make a State Church Religion of- Chartism—declaring some orthodox and others heterodox . There had been too much talk of the future—tbe future was the
stalking-horse of the movement . Those men who for 1800 years bad preached the future to them , bad made a hell of tne present . ' It was by working with the present materials that they could build up a gloriousfuture . Themenwhosenameswere immortalised —who were the heroes of the future—were men who had exerted themselves in promoting the welfare of their own times . Tbey would a ll a gre e t h at t b e l a n d shoul d be national property ; but the majority would not agree to the same plan of obtaining it . It was folly to put forth a plan of details , refative to obtaining possession of the land , before they bad collected the suffrages of the people , a s to the p rinci ple itself . Let them notencumberagood p rinciple with that which would only serve to bide its good qualities , and create dissentions among its
supporters . Mr . Mantle , during a long and eloquent speech , w a s much a p plauded . He stated that he should not have alluded to the disputed question in the Convention , had not he and Mr . Wheeler been challenged by Mr . Finlen to the dispute . Mr . RoBmos said tbe continent of Europe was agitated with -the question of what the working classes should do to remove tbe evils under which they laboured . There was a great difference of opinion upon the question of how this could be best effected . Some thought it could be done by political means alone . He thought otherwise . The land was the right of t h e peop l e , but they must have a plan laid dowa to obtain it . It was useless to lay down the idea unless they also showed the method of realising it . Some little discussion took place on this subject , and it was then allowed to drop .
Mr . Ronnrsc-ff resum ed his speech , and was loudly cheered . . Mr . Grat next addressed the meeting , in a speech of great power and ability . Mr . Skill also g ave a detail of the business of the Convention . A vote of thanks was given to tbe Chairman , and the meeting broke op at a late hour . Several other meetings took place the same evening .. . ^

" : "If It were possible for ; the working classes , by cool ' Mninfr among themselves , to raise , or keep up the general rate of wages , it need hardly be said that this would be a thing not to ba' punished , but to be welcomed and rejoiced at- " ' .. ' ¦¦ ' Swart Mill , '
• The past iveek' has been most prolific in satisfactory and encouraging proofs that the continuous and persevering efforts of tbe Executive of this Association , to enforce upon the working classes of England [ the necessity and policy of National Unity , has not been labour misapp lied . The customs , habits , and modes of thinking of a peop le are not easil y changed ; early impressions are difficult to eradicate ; prejudices are stubborn obstructions in the march of progress ; but truth is great , and in the end must prevail .,
; The Bobbing Turners of Ambleside , the Engine Drivers of New Holland , and the Brick and Tile Makers of Barton-upon Humber , have seat in ; their adhesion to the great cause of-National Union . The Boiler Makers of Crewe , and . the Hammermen of Manchester , - have announced their intention of immediately subscribing their names in tlie monster movement . Applications have , also been received from the Boiler . Makers of Leeds , Bolton , and some other towns , for rules and information , preparatory to joining . The fact is , that the great truth seems to be making itself distinctly felt , and brought to a
practical acknowled gment , that there is no visible hel p for labour but in a national pro-: tective combination . We never met with an intelligent working man who refused his assent to . this as an abstract proposition , . We never met with a public meeting . with' the mixed elements of what they are usually composed , where this great truth found an opponent . No ! from Richard Cooper , of Oldham ; through the long catalogue of secretaries , of every organised trade , the policy , the necessity , the eventual inevitability of the princi ples which we have for so long a period
constantly advocated is cordially conceded . Resolutions oven pf general approval are permitted and supported , but some all powerful cause prevents their immediate adoption , One party says , let us wait and see how yoa get on , if we find yon succeed we shall be happy to give your our assistance . Thank you , good gentleman , for nothing . Other talented and influential men met us with an expressive shru g that the time is not come .: The men are not prepared , they are prejudiced and
disunited , let us wait and perfect onr individual organisation . Let us first amal gam a te the ; Building Trades together , the Iron Trades together , the Mining Trades together , the Textile Interests together , the Clothing Interests , & c . But here comes at once an insuperable obstacle which must ever prevent this first preliminary to national union—or , at least , this peculiar version of it ever being accomplished . It is soon discovered that tho Hodman has no
claim to be considered as belonging to tho building trades , the holder up to rank himself as a boiler maker . The poor victims of the Jew sweating-shops are neither tailors nor shoemakers , they are blacks and drudges , and , therefore , there is no place provided for them in a National Union . To such specious , miserable sophistries , we g ive an indi gnant negative . Every human being who exists by his labour has a right to have that labour protected . The man who carries the hod is
as indispensable an element in the construction of a building as he who lays the bricks . The man who holds up the iron which another man rivets , performs a useful and necessary part in the construction of a boiler . Tho steam-engine ceuld not be driven without a Stoker or Fireman ; the piecer is an indispensable requisite to the Spinner . The absence or withdrawal of even the little silk winders would throw idle all the looms in Spitalfields , Coventry , Macclesfield or Manchester . ' It is this aristocratic tone of distinction—this
detestable copy of a bad orig inal , which ¦ is the bane and curse of British industry . - We hail , therefore , with the most unspeakable delig ht , the evidences which are reaching us , that the strong common sense of the masses is rising superior to the sop histries of leaders . These men with their quiddities and dignified aspirings , will find themselves quietly elbowed out of the road which they now obstruct to the masses , whose cry is—forward I
We will have no compromise with this effete and fading element of our feudal education . It is unsuited to the age and times . Our principles and policy are . to go to the depths of . degraded , wronged , misery-stricken labour , to hold forth the hand of succour , and to say in spirit : "Brother 1 Brother \ look heaven , ward , thou art s man . '' If this be not the very essential principle of the National Association , w « have b « ea dreaming .
National Association Q£ United Trades.
' ^ We How iris ^ principle— broad , rational , and manly .. principle up »» which alone the machinery for emancipating and securing the ri ghts of labour ,-the rights of more than two-thirds of the civilised population of the globe can be constructed . We call then , npon these obstructives , these "daraocrs with feint praise . of a princi ple which they dare not openly impugn , to come manfully forward and make common cause with us who advocate practically the principle which the ? admire and eulogise in theory / . or get ont of our road . We invito the attention of our members and friends to the advertisement in this day ' s- Star . We are dragged into one of the most expensive forms of law suits in defence of the principle of the Right of Combination .
That great princi p le is attacked by a joktstock pnrse , by men who claim the rig ht to ride roughshod over the prostrate body- of industry . Wo will , with the-great God of Justice on our side , resist this usurpation . We wHI do battle for the ri ghts of labour ; and we wiS invoke the " power of the peace , " to neutralise the crushing influence of these men '» pounds . It is a great contest we are entering upon , and we appeal with corsfidence even tothose who may be opposed to ns npon minor
points , to rall y round us for this great object . It is in truth a nation ' s question , and should be defended b y a nation ' s united energies . We - trust every sincere friend to the advancement of his order will throw in the weig ht o t his influence , and thus enable us to ofibr such a . defence as shall be worthy ofthe great cause which is at stake . Rampant capital must bo shown that there ' are limits , c learl y d e fin e d , within which it were meet it restrained ' itselfthat labour hag ri ghts , that must not , shall not , be invaded .
That tho right of combination is one of these ; and that while the law is powerful enough , and always ready to punish the improper use and application of this inestimable privilege , it is also powerful enough , and equ a lly w illi n g , to protect the working man ' s almostonlyri ght , whileits exerciseiskeptwithin the hounds of justice and moderation . We hope to see a powerful muster of the Trades * Delegates of the Metropolis , on Tuesday evening . It is proposed to organise a Metropolitan Defence Committee , to receive and appropriate the Funds which may be subscribed foi the purpose of the defence of the persons implicated in the Perry-conspiracy indictments , It
is also hoped tha provincial towns will form auxiliary committees for the same object . The wheels of law can only be set in motion by a leverage of gold . There are preliminary and expensive proceedings , which must be immediatel y taken if wo are to have a chance of a f a ir trial . There is , therefore , no time to spare . Until the proper organisation of a committee for the purpose , subscri ptions wiU be received by the Secretary , Mr . William Peel , 259 , Tottenham Court-road , who has received 9 s . 4 d . from the Bobbin Turners of Stavel y , and Windermere , in aid of the Defence Fund . . W « .

Sailor's Strike. Makche8tes.—Tliis Strik...
SAILOR ' S STRIKE . MAKCHE 8 TES . —Tliis strike continues with : but slight hopes of its speedy termination . Numbers of the men have : been drifted off into the nei ghbouring townsi The inhabitants have received them cordially , and seem disposed to support the poor fellows during the strugg le . The authorities of this borough , however , have commenced a crusade against them , and several seamen have been arrested on a charge of begging ; added to this , the Manchester Guardian has lent its aid to crush
the seamen . Several articles have appeared in that paper containing a number of falsehoods . The seamen have been charged with idleness , and the authorities have ' been hounded on to prosecute them for mendicancy . Be it remembered , however , thai the seamen did not ask for anything , they onl y went to the mills or workshop doors to which they had b ee n i nvited , creating no disorder , causing no obstruction , and receiving such subscriptions as were voluntarily given by the persons passing . , But , although the people were prevented from giving to the men standing with
boxes , they found their way to the Committee Rooms , arid there gave what they could not give in the streets—so that in reality there was little defalcation , and arrangements are now made for all monies to be paid in the Coramittee Booms . - A series of public meetings have been held in the principal manufacturing towns , at which memorials to her Majesty were adopted , praying for a suspension of the Mercantile Marine Act , to be transmitted to Lord Stanley for presentation to her Majesty . Many
of the inhabitants have kindl y offered to take boxes to their residences , and to distribute subscription sheets among their friends . Thereare now three or four men in prison , who were broug ht up on Monday and Tuesday , and senfenced to fourteen days' hard labour ; but thosewho were brought up on-Saturday last escaped . They were ably defended by Mr ! Roberts ,, and , though sentenced to six days' hard labour , were allowed to depart on entering into their own recognisances . As soon as the sentence
was pronounced , a number of seamen , who were in the Court , offered to share the fate of their companions , but Mr . Mand declined having anything to do with them . ;
