      The Education Question.—A Large And Infl...

      TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE LORD

      BROUGHAM . Mt Lord , —W hen your lordship opens your mouth the world listens . Singular and versatile are your talents , and . when on any great subject you bestow the force of your mind and the power of your eloquence , your lordship has a purpose , although it sometimes pleases you to shroud that purpose in mystery . It is not always at first glance apparent , whether your lordship happens to be in a playful or serious mood—whether you would be understoodlas Harlequin or Sir Oracle . Your ohservations in the House of Lords on the 19 th ult ., on « the Exhibition of the Works of Industry of ail

      Nations to be holden in the year 1851 / may be jocus or serious . There seems to be a vain of playful irony so manifest , and well knowing what your lordship was about to say , the care you took to present even a 'supposition' that you were aiming to ? bring into disrespect' the plaything of royalty , leads me to suppose that , under the mask of Harlequin , Sir Oracle was speaking all the while . For although , in feigning humilitv , vou profess to he merely ' a pupil of the Liberal school , ' none else would dare to uuchair the master . The man lives not , who understands the objects and tendencies

      ol that school , and the meacings and effects of ' cheapness , ' better than your lordship . It was natural , knowing , as your lordship did , the grave truth you were about to reveal , that you should apologise , though indirectly , to the royal propounder of the ' Exhibition ; ' although that caution on your part was sure to raise the very suspicion you seemed most anxious to prevent . No man is better acquainted than your lordship with the inherent selfishness of the' tradesmen , shopkeepers , and manufacturers , ' who are enarmoured with the principles of free trade . It was truly rich , my lord , to hear vour lavish encomiums on their' disinterestedness !'

      Their patriotism is really to be admired , when we see them so anxious to ' lower the prices of all the goods and wares which they make and you consume . ' This is rare news for your clients , the consumers . But , my lord , I need not tell ' you , the producers are sot such fools as you have represented . I thank you for the truth you tell them when you plainly say , ' no doubt the trading and manufacturing interests wili lose a great deal presently , even though they may gain a good deal ultimately . ' A certain ' present loss , ' a doubtful ' ultimate gain , ' may sound like music in their lordships' ears , but cannot fail to stun the ears of * tradesmen , and manufacturers . ' 'They will , ' your lordship proceeds , ' bring

      their goods to a market , where they will be obliged to sell them at a cheaper price than ordinary , whilst tie foreigners , of all nations , will bring their goods to a market , where they will sell them for a price far dearer than any which they could hope to obtain hi their own countries . ' So that the result of this ? Tower of Bable' Exhibition , according to the judgment of your lordship , is simply , a great gain to the foreigners , and a great loss to ourselves ! It is , in fact , pining the whole world against England , at a game in which , it is certain , England must te the loser ! Lord Brougham must have smiled , under the rose , when he eulogised the ' disinterestedness ' of English producers 1

      Your lerdship ' s promise of ' ultimate gain' can be accepted only as a delusion ; for we all know , that loss begets loss , and that the principle which has its foundation iu decrease , can never , at its capital , show increase . The ¦ ultimate gain , ' promised to the handloom weavers , numbering 800 , 000 , has been thirty years a-coming , and is now as far a-head as heretofore I May be , the' disinterested tradesmen , shopkeepers , and manufacturers' of the present day , will cast their eyes upon those wretched dupes of false philosophy , and take warning . ' Down , down , down , ' is a lane , the only end of which is found in the pauper ' s grave . - ¦ __' .

      y Jdany thanks , my Lord Brougham , from a Yorksaireman , for your honest translation into plain English-of this new ' Tower of Bable , ' to be erected in the British ' metropolis . Never mind in which of tlisparkslt bs placed . It will be , your lordship assures us , a temple erected to the goddess' Cheapness . * Outside it may be gaudy ; inside it may , at first , exhibit the magnificent productions of a congregated world . It will , after all , my lord , be a sepulchre , covering that dry commodity called dead men ' s bones ! For , if there be truth in Adam

      Smith , ' the wages of labour' will there find a grave Around that gorgeous sepulchre , royalty , aristocracy , and goldocracy may , for awhile , engage in sportive revelry . It would be well , if before tbat dance begins , they would calmly contemplate its end ! Such XL' wealth of classes / means , my lord ( and no man knows it better than yourself ) the' poverty of peoples ; * aud , although the forthcoming' confusion of tongues' may , by those' classes / be called' a step in the right direction , ' it must lead , and your lordship knows it will lead , to their' dispersion !'

      Yours is a useful hint at ' great gain , ' by ihe introduction of ' new ideas ; ' telling us , at the same time , that tbe certain loss will be in hard cash . It is . not very long since your methamatical friend , M . Arago , in company with M . Lamartine , charmed the French nation with the revolution of ideas '—ivizijiiUing citizens and destroyim ? kings . These f ideas'contintfetb-revolve—the end is not yet , my lord ! -May bei your lordship ' s mind will suggest a thought Or two on that enigma . One thing is as certain as the ' present great gain to consumers / and the ' present great loss to producers '— -the mental ingenuity of man will , by this exhibition , ' be : everywhere on the rack to gain the pr izes thereby promised . It strikes me , my lord , your genius wilt not slumber all the while . He who so lately astounded the world with new theories on

      light vail not bide bis mental power in darkness , when mare than ever the light is needed . Your friend , the Chancellor of the Exchequer , who sees , in long-continued ' cheapness / nothing but storms a-head , now that you , Sir Oracle , have spoken'Down , duwu , down will come the prices '—must be provided with anew method of meeting quarter-day ; else salaries , pensions , and dividends will make him Stand aghast . Your ' patriotic and disinterested ' mind must be contriving a new ' calculating machine' to relieve yonr friend , Sir Charles , on those trying days . I am not skilled in the mechanical arts ; a dunce may , however , sometimes throw out a sound hint , to a philosopher . I would suggest , tbat your machine be constructed on a rapidly descending « sliding scale / The only fitting material I know of , to make it perfect in operation , is S . P . O . 3 . G . E . !

      There is an old nursery proverb of' universal * application ; it would be well that royalty should listen : Children should never play with sharp , edged tools ! ' Tbe patronage of this great societya Prince feasting with congregated Lord Mayorsmay be all very excellent , as we know they are very dazzling things ; but as your lordship very quaintly observes , it is possible to be' penny wise and pound foolish !' My lord , I owe you a debt of gratitude on the part

      of the producers of this country . It was kind in you , tbe master in tbe free trade school , so clearly to indicate its aim and object . 'Down , down , down will come the prices , —and of consequence « down , down , down' must come the wages ! Whilst your clients , the consumers , are chuckling , my . clients , the working men , are thinking !—I have the honour to remain , my lord , your lordship ' s most obliged servant , March 21 , 1850 . Richard Oastler .

      Pour Souxn Reasons Why The Malt Tax Oegh...

      Pour Souxn Reasons why the Malt Tax oeghi to be Repealed . —First , the fanner would be enabled to sell his second and middling barley , all for being malted , for feeding cattle and sheep , instead of selling it for grinding purposes at a low price ; and he well knows , if the duty were ofi his barley , it would enable him , through the increased demand , to realise 8 s . per qr . more for every description he now grows , which extra price would pay the rent of fiverj acre he cultivates for barley . —Second , the malster's trade is now confined only to the best samples of barley ; for he is charged the same duty on middling and low qualities as he is for tbe best sorts , which curtails his trade . He would be able to make three times the quantity of ma ' tfdutv free . ) and employ three times the

      number of labourers in the manufacture of malt ; and this in the malting districts , during the winter six months , would considerably reduce the poor-rates , and find a greater share of work for the industrious classes . It would appear monstrous for the excise officers to go into every watermill and windmill in the kingdom , and tax the wheat eighty-five per cent , before the miller could get his flour ready for market ; but so it is with the malster , however unjust to the consumer . —Thirdly , the repeal oftbe ; Uiait tax would enable the brewer , through the extra , demand for . beer and porter , to brew and sell one-third more than fie now does , consequentlv more bands would be employed in every department of his concern . —Fourthly , the labourer and mechanic now pay indirectly to government the enor-^ BSffiS ?

The pieces performed were Othello , and Payne ' s comedy of Charles the II . The male characters were well sustained in both pieces by amateurs of the village , and the female characters were exceedingly well supported by Sirs , and Miss M'Donald , from the Theatres Royal Glasgow and Paisley . The Hall was crowded to excess , and a great number could not gain admittance . After the dramatic performance a ball took place , and dancing continued until . in early hour in the morning . The committee met in the Chartist vestry on the 29 th ult ., when , after paying all expenses ( which

      were considerable , ) there was a balance in the treasurer ' s hands of £ 3 10 s ., and it was unanimously agreed to send the above sum to Mr .

Wright . Mr . Smart , Mr . Logan , Mr . Forbes , and Mr . Lindsay , followed on the same subject . It was then moved by Mr . " W . Lindsay : — " That Mr . Wright be requested to correspond with the Chartists of Edinburgh , Glasgow , Dundee , Perth , and Arbroath , and ascertain their opinion as to the propriety of calling a general Conference of delegates from the Chartists of these towns , to devise the best means for the revival of Chartism in connexion with the National Charter Association . " This was seconded by Mr . George Smart , and carried unanimously . —

      The chairman suggested , that in the event of the Chartists of these towns being favourable , a local Conference of delegates , from all organised bodies of working men of the city , should be called , to have their opinion as to the best means to adopt for the revival of the movement—Agreed to . It was then moved , — " That Mr . Wright be requested to deliver a lecture on tbe present system of taxation , as it affects the interest of the working classes ; that this lecture be delivered on Monday , the 15 th inst ., and be advertised by hand-bills ; that every Chartist should exert his influence to bring up parties to the meeting , and to enrol members . "Agreed to . The meeting then adjourned till the following Monday evening .

      Rk-orgaxisatiox of the Edinburgh Chartists . —On the 26 th ult ., a special meeting of the friends of democracy was held in the Land Company ' s Hall , for the purpose of considering what line of policy they ought to adopt , best calculated to accomplish a thorough union of the Chartists of this city , and the speedy triumph of democracy . This meeting , although partaking more of a private character than otherwise , being called by circular , was nevertheless numerously attended , the large room being nearly full , while the spirit displayed by the numerous speakers in the discussion 6 n the merits of local tarsus national organisation , left no room for doubting as to what were the feelings of all

      present . 1 he following resolution , moved by James Dumpings , and seconded by "Walter Pringle , was unanimously adopted : — " That this meeting deem it advisable to support tbe National Charter Association , and empower the secretary to receive subscriptions and communicate with the Executive Committee in London , for the purpose of procuring cards of membership . " It was also moved by Walter Pringle , and seconded by Richard Birckett " That a provisional committee be appointed , and that the secretary attend every Saturday ni g ht in the above hall , between nine and eleven o'clock , for the purpose of enrolling members , and receiving subscriptions .

      DEnnr . —On Tuesday evening a grand Chartist festival was held in the spacious hall of the Mechanics' Institute . Upwards of two hundred friends of the cause sat down to an excellent tea , which being over , the hall was cleared for the meeting , and notwithstanding tha charge for admission was sixpence , the applicants were so numerous that it was deemed advisable by the managing committee to close the doors , as the numbers would be too great for the ball Mr . Henley was appointed to the chair . Mr . Short read the following letter from Mr . Reynolds , who , with Mr . M'Grath , was announced to be present : — " My Dear Friend , —I am truly grieved to be compelled to break my appointment with the kind friends at Derby . I have

      charged . my . esteemed friend , M ' Grath , to explain to you the reasons : and I am sure you will allow the excuse to . be valid . No other earthly reason over which I exercise any control , would possibly prevent me from attending the meeting . But in a month ' s time I will make up for it , by visiting you , and remaining two days in Derby , so as to speak one night upon the social condition of the country , and the other night upon tbe political aspect of affairs . I take leave to forward a guinea towards the Derby Chartist funds . —Believe me , to remain yours sincerelyand fraternally , G . " W . M . Reynolds . —To Mr , L . Faire . "—The reading of the letter was received with loud applause . Mr . M'Grath then proceeded , in an able address , to descant upon

      several interesting topics , and concluded amid the cordial greetings of the assembly . A vote of thanks was then p assed by acclamation to Mr . M'Grath , for his services in the democratic cause .

BniGuiox . —The Chartists of Brighton are entering warmly into the new plan of organisation . Two meetings have already taken place at the Running Horse , King-street , at which house they intend to meet every Monday evening , to transact business and enrol members . It is their intention to form a fund in conjunction with the members of tbe Social

      Reform League , for the purpose of having lectures on the Charter and Social Reform . If this is carried out in the same spirit as it is begun , it is calculated to be a great assistance towards the attainment of our political and social rights . Sheffield . —The Council held its weekly meeting on Sunday Evening , in the Democratic Temperance Hotel , 33 , Queen-street . Mr . Renshaw in the chair .

      ¦ . REVIVAIKOF CHAETISM ^ TOvTHE ^ ' CHARTISTS « 8 gOTLAND . ; : ; . The people bye and bye ^ J > e the 6 ttonger . B « oK . [ % MEN OF ScbT ^ -qur . ^ f ? K « j ^ n !! hinin unfurled the g lorious -banner of ChaMism-? heSonalCharter Associatioh-is-agam inexistrace " oppressed andldown-teodden'peopleof Ireland so long apathetic arid indifferent to the true interests of their country , are now on the move , and the " good old cause ! ' is progressing rapidly among them ; and why should we , the people of Scotland , remain idle spectators of this glorious inauguration of another national movement ? I know that many are dispirited by the failure of the agitation of 1818 , and think now that all efforts are useless . But let us ask ourselves , in sober seriousness ,

      what have we done to merit any other result ? 1 will not deny that many individual Chartists have done their duty ; but as a party—as a people—what noble sacrifices have we over made—to what stern , determined , and continuous national movement can we refer , as a justification of our conclusion that we ought to have succeeded better—that we ought now to be free ? How few of us can say that we entered heart and soul into the movement , determined to act as if life itself depended upon our individual efforts ? Have not our agitations hitherto been more the result of temporary excitement , than of calm deliberation , and stern determination to

      achieve political freedom ? Men who have merely attended our meetings , and contributed not even a tenth part of the sums they spent otherwise on useless , perhaps hurtful indigencies , will now turn aside , broken-down and dispirited , and refuse their aid in another struggle for their rights . This should not be , and if they would only call calm reflection to their minds , this would not continue to be the ease . Liberty cannot be won in a day ; the tyrants who now withhold our rights will not be easily made to surrender , and if the people desire to be free , they must continue stern , and determined to agitate till freedom is obtained . The immediate cause of the

      agitation of 48 was the French Revolution , which burst upon Europe like a flash of lightning , and which was effected in Paris almost without a struggle . The people of England were deceived ; thereby ; they thought that they should succeed as rapidly and as easily as the people of France ; and because this success did not immediately crown their efforts , they are now content to remain in abject slavery . Let us turn again to France , and there we will-find the people deceived by that " special" humbug Louis Napoleon ; the attempted revolution of June completely frustrated ; many of their best and bravest leaders imprisoned , or compelled to remain as exiles in other lands ; yet they were not so dispirited as we , they continued the noble struggle , and the late elections tell with what success . The

      enemies of freedom thought to divide the red sea and pass through , to victory , but they were overwhelmed in its mountain , waves . . "Who is so foolish as to think that this result has been brought about without much suffering , much patient perseverance , many sacrifices , and much self-denial among the people of France ? Their best friends were shot down like dogs in the streets of Paris ; their most talented and true patriots heavily fined , and subjected to vcxacioua imprisonments ; their schoolmasters dismissed ; their best magistrates dismissed ^ froni office , and everywhere persecution met the true democrats in the face ; but still they nobly struggled in the midst of all these discouraging circumstances , and victory will soon be theirs . Wait a little longer .

      Let us then , who boast of our wisdom , and of our superior intelligence , but persevere as they havo done , and victory will crown our united efforts . The cause is prospering well in England ; it is now taken up , for the first time , in the sister country , and the reports in the Irishman , show , that good is being done . Let us then , the Chartists of Scotland , resolve to unite with these , our brethren , solemnly determining to make one last , one great , one glorions effort , and the cause is won ! Never at any former period in the history of Chartism , was there so sure a prospect of the nations of Scotland , England , and Ireland , combining in one great movement , as that which now presents itself . Let each , and all of us , resolve that this effort shall be made . The men of

      Aberdeen are organising , and so are the men of Edinburgh ; let Glasgow , Dundee , Paisley , Perth , Montrose , Arbroath , and the other towns , resolve forthwith , to join the national movement . Meetings may easily be got up throughout Scotland . Let Edinburgh , for instance , send two of their number to Aberdeen , and let Aberdeen send two to Edinburgh , and so throughout . Let two or three of the earnest Chartists of every town resolve at once to make a beginning , and the movement must succeed ! I will not expatiate on what the people , as a whole , could do , but I will say that a few earnest determined men could easily arouse their own localities ; and if t / iesefew did their duty , tbrow their whole energies into the cause , the mass of the people would soon join them , and continue till victory was won .

      Rouse then , men of Scotland , you are still slaves , the cause is still as good and as righteous as ever Ifc -was , your duty is still unperformed , do it . Continue to boast of Bruce—continue to be proud of Wallace—respect the memories of the glorious martyrs of Scotland , who died for civil and religious liberty , but , above all this , more glorious and nobler far it is , to emulate their actions , and to follow their example .

      The Miners Of The United Kingdom. To The...

      THE MINERS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM . TO THE EDITOR OF TUB SOUTHERN STAH . Sir , —The miners of this district , together with those of Lancashire , Staffordshire , Yorkshire , and Ayrshire , in Scotland , are evincing some determination to seek from the government a better protection for their lives aud health than what has hitherto been accorded them , and in accordance with this view it has been determined to petition the Legislature again , ( a copy of the petition appeared in the Star of a recent date ) . The miners of Northumberland , Durham , Lancashire , and Cheshire , have also agreed to send a deputation of miners to London , with a view to enforce upon the attention of the government the absolute necessity of a speedy settlement of the question , and the danger of delay . The deputation

      will meet m London on the 8 th or 10 th of April ensuing , and would feel great pleasure in having as many petitions as possible forwarded during their stay in the metropolis , the period of which will not , perhaps , exceed a fortnight or three weeks at most . To save time , and also to ensure a greater certainty , every district had better forward their petitions to the respective members who represent their town or county where they are situate ; but if not so disposed , they can be sent to any other member such parties may select . Perhaps among the several members friendly to a measure of supervision of mines and collieries it might appear invidious to specify any particular one ; but for the benefit of those who may not be acquainted with the names of those parties friendly to the miners in this respect , I shall put down the names of the

      following members as likel y to be in attendance on their Parliamentary duties at the time the deputation will be in London : Mr . O'Connor , Mr . T . S . Duncombe , ( who it is expected will be able to attend after Easter ) , Mr . Hume , Mr . Wyld , Mr . AgUonby , and Mr . Brotherton . Petitions forwarded open at both ends , and addressed to any of the above at the House of Commons , will very probably be attended to at the same time ; a letter should be sent to the member selected apprising him of the favour committed to his care . These particulars have been thought necessary , seeing that it will require tho most extensive exertions on the part of the miners to meet successfully tho opposition of the coal proprietors , many of whom are members of the Legislature , and whose influence ramifies to a considerate extent . The deputation will attempt , by calling upon the several members friendlv to the

      providing ot an efficient inspection of mines , to bring their united influence to boar upon the members of Her Majesty ' s government , and thereby impress them with a conviction of the necessity , of either bnngng in a bill themsehes , or toSour the introduction of a bill by some other member of the house . To work then , ye miners who have not yet stirred in the matter ; consider this as a life and death question , affecting , as It does , toe whole body of miners , n Great Britain , and follow the noble example set you in the last week ' s Star , by the miners of Yorkshire and Ayrshire resnnnd to the call made to you by Mr . G wV 0 / wal £ field , and if not possible to send an individual or two to assist the deputat on , do not neglect the important duty of forwarding your petitions , and hkew se all authentic information upon tho real condition oftho ventilation of vour »™» k ™ j ;« .

      tricts , so that the deputation may have everv assistance likely to help forward the general question . As the deputation cannot give their address while in London , until the publication of next week s Star , all communications can , in tho interim , be sent ( marked , "Miner ' s Deputation . ") to Mr W . DixoivHl High Ilolborn , London , vho will no IhSlS / f Sful & " ? them t 0 the Ration when called for . Miners . ' arouse ye to tho work let it be forcibly impressed upon your minds . The success of the struggle depends upon each and all doing their very best . Remember this , and forward your petitions , your information , and any little cash you can spare that the goodcause may not be allowed to retrograde through your supineness and apathy . Yours , & c ., M . JtlDE .

      To The Admirers Op The People's Charter....

      TO THE ADMIRERS OP THE PEOPLE'S CHARTER . Friends , —To those of you , who , like ourselves , have been for many years past patiently aud diligently struggling for the promotion of the People ' s Charter , and who have a sincere and anxious desire for its success , it must he a source of unmingled pain that the period of its national adoption even yet appears to he so remote ; and with you it

      must he , as it is with us , a matter of the utmost importance to consider whether in the future it will not he advisable to give to our advocacy and general policy a complexion more genial and proselytising , and to our whole proceedings such improved direc tion , as past experience may have shown to he indispensable not only to the triumph of our cause , pit as an absolute preliminary to the nationalisation of our party .

      The People's Charter is , in itself , the most perfect embodyment of the principles upon which to base a constitution that has come under our notice , and has in ifc nothing repugnant to the theory of the representative branch of our governments , nor to the health y and vigorous genius of the British people . Nay , more—every proposition which ifc contains recommends itself from its simplicity and fairness , and from its reasonableness and justice , to the adoption of the nation .

      The Charter , too , has the advantage of heing analagous in its spirit ; and , in its legitimate interpretation of-all those theories of representative authority , the- struggles for which are the most glorious reminiscences in the annals of England . It was this theory of self-government that , rudely understood , and in a modified sense , dictated at Runeymede , the demand for Magna Charta , and which , descending through successive generations , at last caused itself to be acknowledged , in degree , in a chapter of our history , written by the bold hand of the Commonwealth , and in the royal blood of the first Charles . The

      theory of the People ' s Charter—representative government—which , understood differently at different periods , has been striving for supremacy for many ages , and as the nation has advanced it has been partially adopted , and all those who have had the power to enforce their claim to be recognised as part of the body politic , have been admitted within the sanctuary of the constitution . The last groat national effort to enlarge the circle of the enfranchised body , was that which eventuated in the Reform Bill , and which conferred political power on the entire commercial and trading classes , together with a small portion of the more

      favoured of tho labouring classes . This measure , however , carefully excluded five-sixths of the maleadult community , and it was hoped , by tho Whig framers of that Act , that by placing tho governing power in tho hands of those classes who conjointly hold the property of the country , that the mere labourers might be thus continuously excluded , and that those antiquated institutions of wrong and fraud , by which the oligarchy have for centuries been able to sustain themselves at the expense of the nation , might thus be preserved from the innovating hand of the rude democracy . From the period of the Reform Bill , however , has to be dated the commencement of that struggle on the part of the enli g htened section of tho manual-labour class ; the sentiment of which embodied itself in tho form

      of tho People ' s Charter , and which has since given rise to so much agitation ,. and well-founded discontent , in different parts of the United Kingdom , but from which no immediate or practically beneficial result has yet transpired ; nor docs it appear to us , that an agitation conducted solely by a section of our own classes , ever can produce any great national consequence . An opinion has hitherto prevailed in the agitation for the Charter , that tho middle classes were by feeling , instinct and interest , hostile to the progross of democracy , and that they wevo , as a class , more the enemies of tho labouring classes than the landed or any other power in the country ; and based upon this notion , the most terrific denunciations have been thundered forth , and even now continue to be thundered forth , from Chartist platforms , against these men , and as we take it , to the detriment of Chartism , and in opposition to fact .

      As a class , we are of opinion that the middle is like the aristocratic and the working classes , true to its own covnietions , ideas , an dopinions , and incontvadistiuction to which it cannot act . In this respect ifc resembles all mankind . Tfce exceptions to this rule arc numerous individual cases ; but , in tho case of those divisions of society known as classes , there never has been such an exception . Men who are true to thiiiv own thoughts are true to the world , as they see it , and to change their opinions tho world must be shown to them from a new point of

      view . It is quite : true , that there are numerous instances where , as the employers of labour , individual members of tho middle classes have , and do now , practice , great cruelty towards those whom they employ ; but such cruelty is not the crime of a class , but-rather the natural result of great and almost irresponsible power , placed in , the . hands of men of hardened , and cruel natures , " and who- in any station of life , . would prove themselves below the average of humanity . The middle class / in its tyranieal sense , is rather an cjfa * thaii a cause , and ought to . be treated accordingly ' . " : ' ' Befoi-e we can endowelhe . wholesale and sweep-

      ing abuse which is ; directed -againstthisclass , we must blot out from our memories our mostcherished historical : recollections in which : its representatives have born a most distinguished , part .. All the great reforms of the ' present century have been championed by ; this class , the democratic section of which , in conjunction with the labouring population , have always fought the battle of injured humanity . Wo must , before we can join , in : this untrue , junphilosophical , and , therefore ,. unwarrantable denunciation , obliterate from our minds , thojgrand literary monuments , in the midst of which we live , tho scientific discoveries , mechanical inventions , and progressive civilisation of this day must first depart from our visions . We . must forget the steam engine , railway , and electric telegraph , by which time and space have been annihilated , ere we can consent to regard in this class the enemies of the human race . irirr abuse vwhinh in * Hiropfpfl noainsfc this class , we

      To us it appears that the only hope of the democratic movement is in a sincere co-operation with that section of the middle classes , who are anxious to promote the cause of freedom . We feel that there is amongst tho middle , as , indeed , there is amongst all classes of the English nation , a numerous party , who are anxious for the elevation of the labouring classes ; and we are firmly convinced , that without the . aid of such reformers , agitations may be prolonged with no other fruits to the democratic party than those which have already fallen to their share . The National Charter I-eague will , therefore , make it one of its primary objects to create a friendly intercourse with all those , without reference to

      classdistinction , who are labouring to bring about a change in our representative system . Goodness of heart , and soundness of intellect , are not the peculiar attributes of class , but are common to all God ' s creatures , and wherever , they may bo found the League will appreciate and reverence them . The League eschews all violence , whether of acts or of language , satisfied that already the cause of the Charter has suffered In every sense from what have been practised and said in its name . It has no confidence in any other than peaceable means for the accomplishment of its object , and will not permit , at its meetings , the utterance of sentiments

      at varaince with this principle . The League will co-operate for tho promotion of such reform as may seem to ifc likely to hasten the final accomplishment of tho People ' s Charter . Tho League invites the assistance of all those patriotic working men who agree with its objects , and approve its intended line of action . The council undertakes , on its own part—whilst it will not , in any instance , shrink from its duty—nevertheless , to conduct the League clear . of the law , and so to manage its affairs , that no man , by com nexion with it , shall compromise either his liberty or personal reputation .

      Emigration. To Tbe Eduos Op The Hull Adv...

      EMIGRATION . TO TBE EDUOS OP THE HULL ADVERTISER Thrice is he armed who hath his quarrel just , And he but naked though locked up in steel , Vfhose conscience with injustice is corrupted .

      Sir , —You will confer a favour upon your humble correspondent by allowing me a portion of your space in you next issue . During the last few weeks , the borough of Hull has been agitated upon the question of Emigration . On Monday last my attention was attracted to a placard , posted outside the office of the Hull Herald , announcing a lecture upon the above subject in the Town Hall , on Monday evening last . Being desirous of obtaining some information upon the subject of emigration , I was induced with this motive , and this alone , to attend . With all due deference to the lecturer , I must confess my anticipations were , to a certain extent , realised . The lecture consisted of details and urgent appeals to those parties

      favourable to the project , to enter into an association to carry out the same . Looking at the lecture , as a whole , an idea crossed my mind , ifc was an assertion that the exigencies of the times imperatively demanded speedy recourse to emigrationnay , ifc was an assertion of the lecturer , " that it was the only thing that could be done to maintain the prosperity of Great Britain . " At the conclusion , hearing the audience invited to submit questions , and that the lecturer was anxious to give the fullest information possible , I availed myself of the privi lege , by submitting the following plain straightforward question , viz ,: — " Was not the resources of our own country adequate to our requirements ?" observing that I was aware that emigration was

      not a very popular subject—that I did not wish to take advantage by any subtle mode of attack or cunningly devised question . The only method by which the subject could be rendered popular and acceptable was , by affording every facility for a full , fair , and free inquiry into its merits and demerits . If it would not bear the test of examination , sooner or later , it would find its level amongst the things that were . If my mind was correctly informedaudi derived my information from some ot the most eminent statistical writers there was in tbe country—our resources were more than adequate to meet the requirements of three times our present number of inhabitants—I ' alluded to Sheriff Allison , tbe celebrated author of " The History of Europe "

      —Mr . Porter , tbe author of " The Progress of the Nation "—Mr . Colqhuon , & c , & c . Now , Sir , unless this is explained away by the advocates of emigration , I am perfectly justified in saying , that the great evil to be complained of is , the unjust distribution , and not a deficient production If wealth . But what answer did I receive ? If it possessed one quality more than another , it was an elaborate struggle to evade and shirk the question . It was pregnant with the most specious sophistry which Air . S . was capable of using . When I rose to express my disapprobation to the answer I had received , Mr . Foster , the impartial (?) chairman ,

      distinctly gave me to understand that my question had been answered , and refused to hear me again . If , Sir , this is the way these philanthropists choke inquiry into the sincerity of their professions , their policy is suicidical , and I appeal to the working classes of Hull to suspend their co-operation , until they know more of this emigration scheme of Mr . Sheppard , late editor of the Eastern Counties Herald Let them pause and interrogate themselves , as to whether Mr . S . is , or is not , actuated by motives of private lucre . My object in writing this letter is , to put my fellow townsmen on their guard , in whom they confide , and to obtain that justice through the columns of your journal , which was denied me at the Town Hall .

      If Mr . Sheppard considers there is a surplus population dependent upon the State for support , let him endeavour to obtain the assistance of Lord Brougham , and commence a series of lectures to the members of tho' Civil list , upon self-reliance . In the noble lord he will find a very able coadjutor ; and , by the bye , it would not be amiss for Mr . Sheppard to commence with , to prevail upon his lordship to surrender his retiring pension of £ 5 , 000 per annum , which he receives for one year ' s servitude , as Lord High Chancellor , Let Mr . Sheppard adopt this course , and he will bo moving in the right direction . If Mr . Sheppard will only furnish

      the public with evidence , in support of his position , through the columns of this paper , I will endeavour to give ocular demonstration that , at best , emigration is only temporary and expensive relief to the Statej and only tends to conserve a system of corrupt finance , which , ere long , must be reduced — the Suffrage extended — the Game Laws abolished—and the law of entail and primogeniture repealed . We shall then be approximating to that system of government which will give , permanence and stability to the domestic comfort of the working class . I . ' am , Sir , yours truly , George Candelet .

      BOW-STRJGET . — " jeames" in Trouble . "—A footman in the service of J . Adams , Esq ., of Elyplace , Holborn , was placed at tho bar under the following circumstances : —The inspector deposed that on Monday evening , about half-past seven o'clock , the pr-isonev came to him drunk , and commenced telling him something about a game at skittles , a £ 10 note , and . his master ' s bank book . Having learned with difficulty where the skittleground was , ho ( the inspector ) sent for the landlord to see if ho knew any thing of the affair . On his arrival at tho station , from what he stated , it appeared that tho prisoner had been sent to post some letters , and to pay into his master ' s bank a 4 l ( J note . Before doing ; either of these duties he must needs enter into a u ' lihlin-hniicA . whnro ho mot with

      some acquaintances . A game at , skittles was proposed , no doubt by sharpers , who had caught sisjht of the bank book , and the . challenge was immediately accepted . by the prisoner . , In a short time the beer being handed round in groat quantities , the prisoner was found m the skittle-ground dead drunk , and his companions were gone . When he camo to himself he commenced raging at the landlord , telling him . that his house was a gambling house , and that he . had been robbed in it , that he would go to the station and tell the police of it . The inspector did all in his power , to quiet the stormy rage of the prisoner , but ifc was of . no avail , and when spoken to he only became the more unmanageable , so he thought the best way would bo to lock him up . —Mr . Jardino said ,, that , he would not punish him ,, as there was no doubt he would lose his situation . . ., . .: SOUTHWARK . —Robberv by a Servant . — Mary Lancaster was charged with stealing two p ' aii of . silver salt stands and glasses , several silver

At last some one called „ i « Wait , I will open the door . " On-ainZ S rnittance ,. witness found three of the defendant *' in the parlour , but he could not identify them ' The remainder he found in a room on the first-flooi * sitting round a table at supper . He found in a back room a long mahogany table . The blanW

      and green baize produced were lying at the end o £ it . He also found lying on the stairs a painted table cover , which exactly fitted the table , it wa torn as it is now . The blanket also covers the tabl & completely , so that no noise could be beard . He examined the windows , and found the front room shutters secured by strong bolts and bars ; in the back room the window was permanently closed by boards bound strongly with iron .. The doors leading to the upper rooms and the roof were all secured b y irpn bars , He did not find any gaming implements , but he found several cards , withhorecs racing engraved upon them ; some were smaller

      than the others , and some were cut in halves , There appeared to be the remains of paper burning on the fire . —Mr . Bingham said he should take until Tuesday to giv * his dechion . In the meanwhi ' e he would take moderate bail , which was immediately procured . —Ml ' . Bingham proceeded on Tues . day to deliver his judgment in the above case .--Tiie defendants having been called into court , Mr . Line ham said : —The defendants were charged with having been found in a common gaming-house , of which James Jones was alleged to be the door , keeper ; and the only question was , whether sufficient evidence had been adduced to justify a leeal

      inference that tho house in which the defendant } were found was a house of that descri ption . Mr . Bingham proceeded to state that his opinion was that the house in which tlie defendants had been found was a gaming house . The manner in which the . doors of tlie house were fastened and barricaded , and the appearance of certain tables and table covers which were found on the premises , and which were evidently adapted to . the purposes of gaming , had induced him to come

      to that conclusion . He then fined the doorkeeper , Jones , £ 10 , or twenty days' imprisonment . The persons who were found in the upper rooms of the house were fined £ 5 each , and three persons who were taken into custody in the parlour , where no gaming implements were discovered , were discharged without a fine . —Mr . Clavkson gave notice of appeal against the decision . —Three defendants , Goodman , his son , and another , were discharged without any fine ; the others paid their fines under protest , and were liberated .

      BRITISH COLLEGE OF HEALTH , Nevv Road , Losdoh . FALLACY OP ANATOMY AS REGARDS TIIE CURE OP DISEASES—THE BURKING SYSTEM-DOCTORS BUYING DEAD BODIES WITH THEIR SHIRTS !!! QUI ! As persons are continually disappearing no one knows liow , it may not be out of place to consider whether the burking system is riot still carried on to a great extent . Had it not been for the terrible discoveries made on Burke and Hare ' s trial , there can be no doubt that thousands would have been sent into the next world in order to feed doctors with human flesh , so that they ( the doctors ) might fi ll t h e i r pockets at the ex p ense of s u ffering humanity . This dissection , our readers should know , forms one of tlie very lucrative emoluments proceeding from ' Iwspital practice . ' For instance , the professor of anatomy pays , we will say , ei g h t o r t en g u ineas for a dead b o d y , and then makes fifty or sixty out of it from the medical students who have paid their money in order to find out , as they are told , the

      cause of disease in a dead body ! > Was there ever a more infamous fraud ? Where is the doctor who knows how to cure a disease from dissection ? They all know it to be a shameful piece of humbug , and they are not a bit the wiser from dissection , as far as regards the cure of diseases . It is all to make money ! money !! money !!! that the rascality is kept up ; dust is thrown into the eyes of the public , the doctors tell the lie ( the wicked lie !) that anatomy is requisite to understand the cure of diseases . The only anatomy really required is BONE SEtTlNG , in case of aecidents , which might be learnt by desi g ns ; the Vegetabl e Universal Medicine will then do all that is necessary , by keeping the blood pure and healing the parts—operations for stone , cataract , cancer , & c , are perfectly useless , yvhichis proved by the disease always coming again , because its seat is in the blood !!! Ilurke ,. tho murderer , found 'Burking' the best trade going—he used to smother people , and then take them to the doctors almost hot , some

      even with their SHIRTS ON , * and used , without the least difficulty , to get his £ 8 for each body , Jfow there can to no doubt that the doctors most have known that tlie victims had not come fairly by their deaths , yet they blink e d at the whole business in order that they might fill thus pockets . T alk , after this , about the 'honourable' profess i on , tlie 'liberal' profession , and such humbug . Wesaj ' j read the confession of the'Duikers here given , and if you can believe that these doctors did not know at the time that the parties had" been murdered , why , then , you must have more credulity , than we give you credit n > r . The deadly chemicals of the doctors and their burliings arc both on a par , only the first is not so easily detected by the public as the other ; but that a day of retribution will come we make no doubt . We understand that poorpeople yvill no longer allow their relatives , who die iu the hos pitals , to be mangled by the knife of tlie human butchers No wonder .
