£ I-Have Heard - .Villi No Little : Sorr...
£ I-have heard - . villi no little sorrow that the ftneiaberslo ^ tedup on tlieabo veestateexpressed | £ heir disappointment and dissatisfaction upon ^ several points , while all appeared to he piighly delighted with the situation ; and as it » is my desire that no just cause of complaint " should rest upon me or npon Mr . DOYLE , who [ had the management of the -works upon the Restate , I -will state-lie causes of complaint , I and then I -will not centent myself h y merel y ; repl y ing to them , bntlS ^ eftwtually remedy ilthem , asfor as lies in ' mypower . F The first complaint -was , that there were no Ipmnps in file houses ; the second , that there " was no wheat in -the ground j and the third , that the crops - were bad . ' "
If otb- , my answer to the first charge is , that in less than a month there shall he a pump in every man ' s oack-Jdtehen , and I will write T > y to-morrow ' s post to order the -work to he . commenced . ily answer to the second charge is , that these who complain of there not being wheat in the ground , could not have read my letter in the " Star , " stating that there should be half an acre of potatoes , an acre of beans , half an acre of peas , and a plot of cabbages , upon each allotment , and that the remainder should be prepared for turnips .
M y answer to the third charge is , that the potatoes are good and luxuriant—that the beans , for the season inTwhich they were planted , are a fair crop— -that the cabbages ;^ are exceUent- ^ -and that the " peas are a failure . ^ "The season is now coming for sowing turnips , t-and an acre shall be sowntoeachallotment , | and manured , wMchXaia ^ nW $ romise , wife a " full proportion ofignano , leaving-an acreless by the amount of cabbages—fallow , and ready for wheat in the autumn .
Xow , let it be borne in mind , that the majority of Bonus money came in in the two last weeks , and that the funds of the Company were previously in a state which would not admit of those operations being performed at an earlier period .- I am told that Mr . S encer ' s four acres of potatoes , which are most luxujriant , have been taken as a comparison . But it should be borne in mind , that he purchased lis land and p lanted his potatoes in March , and that , at that time , I had not the money -to do so—but this I assert , that the potatoes on the other , allotments will be as good as his .
Bnt if I were in search of an answer to any i-omplaintthatmaybe preferred , could I find a more conclusive one than reference to my letter in the " Northern Star , " in which I Tirgentl y requested every man , who was desirous of obtaining an allotment on that estate , to go in person and examine it , and not to send Hobson or the " "Whistler ; " and that I would not be held responsible for the complaints of those who did not pay their money with their eyes open .
I am not one to look sli ghtingl y upon the complaints of the working classes , and espe--cially the complaints of women , many of whom , I am told , were alarmed lest their children should fall into the open wells . But this I will correct And now let me state the position of a man holding four acres of land upon that estate , and I -will take the average Bonus at 75 / . In that case , taking the average price of land , the cost of building , and expense of seed , and cultivating the whole , will amount
to about 2 ( 51 . I have reduced the cost of land by the sale of house and twenty-eight acres , from 3-5 / . to about 32 ? . per acre . The man , therefore , who lias paid 75 / . Bonus for the average allotment will be liable to 87 . a-year rent ; and I undertake to say , that in less than one week he will get a solvent tenant who will take that house , laud , and crops atarentof 16 / . a-year , and will never be a day in arrear ; thus leaving the duped Bonus payer 81 . per year interest for Ms 7 o / ., or nearly twelve por cent for his money .
The allottees should also understand that they will not have to pay any rent , until Jfovcmber twelvemonth ; and they should further understand , that the land is TITHEPJBEE , while Minster Lovel , that did not cost within 52 . an acre as much as Bromsgrove , pays at the rate of SIX SHILLINGS AXD JEIGHT PENCE an acre ; and thus every four acres atBromsgrove is relieved of 1 / . 6 s . 8 d . a year by being tithe-free , and u-hich , as a matter of course , the agricultural labourer becoming tenant to the bonus buyer would take into acccount ; and then he would find that instead of paying 16 / . a year rent , he was only paying 14 / . 13 s . -id . a year , as his land would he tithe-free .
It has happened that , npon every single estate , the most fortunate allottees have invariabl y grumbled with 30 / , of aid-money in their pockets ; and such an effect has this eojstant ingratitude had upon my feelings , that I , with the consent of the Directors , hare resolved to hold a Conference at Nottingham , on Monday , the 6 th of August , when that Conference , representing the whole body of members , shall decide whether the affairs of the Company shall be wound up , and then I shall be able to present a balance-sheet to the Conference , from the period of the Eeport
of the Parliamentary Committee , down to Saturday , the 4 th of August . And that being done , after I have completed the purchase and subdivision of Mathon , the leases and conveyaneesto those who shall have paid theirrents due in next November , and the conveyances to those who have paid the amount of bonus to entitle them to conveyance—when I have done this , I will hand over the whole propert y to trustees , to he appointed by that
Conference . 1 will then retire from public life . I will purchase a hundred acres of land—erect an agricultural college—give instruction , clothing , and food to a hundred youths , and divide amongst them the whole profits of their labour , —• receiving , perhaps , as my reward , their ingratitude also . However , I am resolved , after the treatment I have received from those to whose service I have devoted my life , my intellect , and my property , that nothing shall induce me to abandon this resolution .
In conclusion , let me state that all who paid Bonus , but were not successful , - have received their money upon application , b y return of post I should also state that over fifty tons of the very best manurehavebeen applied to each-allotment but as npon all former occasions , the located members appear determined to depreciate their own property ; and where is the ag ricultural labourer who would not be too Jhappy to get four acres of land cropped for nearly double the rent I state ? Let them look at the p icture of the GRAVEL-PIT FARMER , as drawn by the editor of the " Weeiirf Dispatch . " .. ' Fbakgus O'CoKKon .
- P . S . In the midstof my try ing scenes , it is some consolation to receive such letters from a purchaser of four acres of Mathon ; and , in replv , I have only to say that I will beat all tyrants and devils , or they shall beat me . .. — , .

Great Reform Meeting At Aberdeen. Last W...
GREAT REFORM MEETING AT ABERDEEN . Last week , one of the most important meetings ever held in our city , was assembled in Union Hall , Elackfriar-street . The hall , although capable of giving easy accommodation to more than 2 , 000 , was filled equal to expectation . On the motion of Mr . George Smart , Mr . William Lyon , farmer and cattle dealer , took the chair . The Chairman spoke at considerable length , and in a very neat and appropriate speech urged upon the middle classes the necessity of throwing aside their apathy before it was too late . Only when insolvency had made them think had they spoken out , and this he believed was the sole cause which had made that class begin to take a leaning towards the reforms demanded by the working classes , lie
hoped an indissoluble union would ere long be formed among all classes of reformers , and that that union would be based upon all the points contained in the Charter . He would not oppose men who did not go so far as himself , yet upon all occasions he would take the liberty to expound his views as to how far reformers should go ; and in the way of ordinary dealing , he would never accept ot an instalment for the payment of a just debt unless the creditor produced ample security to pay the balance when he demanded iti ( Cheers . ) The Chairman introduced Mr . Archibald M'Donald to move the first resolution as follows : — " That it is the opinion of this meeting the grievous burthens , privations , and sufferings , which the great mass of the people of Great Britain and Ireland have long endured , and of which they have just cause to complain , arise from , and arc the results of , class legislation ; and this monstrous system will
not be removed , nor a wise and just state of society established , until the House of Commons is made a reflex of the whole people . " Mr . M'Donald spoke at great length in adducing proofs in support of the resolution , in a manner which seemed to make a deep impression upon the meeting . Be dwelt at great length upon the growing difficulties of the people of our country , but when he adverted to the state of Ireland , where the people are d ying b y hundreds and thousands from the want of the necessaries of life , the whole meeting seemed electrified into a state of horror . Mr . M'Donald having touched upon these particulars , called upon the meeting to ' say whether it thought such misery could exist in any fertile country under a well regulated legislation . ( Cries of " Ko . " ) Mr . M'Donald concluded by calling upon the meeting to he as one man in their demand to be admitted within the pale of the constitution , and resumed his seat loudly cheered .
Mr . JohxBkeake seconded the resolution , which , on being put to the meeting was carried unanimously . The Chairman introduced Mr . David Deaxs to move the petition . Mr . Deans said : The petition he was about to read , went no farther than to say , we wish a House of Commons in reality—not in name , but in fact : sensible men , although 2 : 001-, believed they had as good a right to send members to parliament as the rich , who in too many instances did not possess an overflow of the
acquirem en t s of g ene r al know l ed ge . Jfr . Deans then read the petition , which embodied all the points of the Charter . He supported the petition clause by clause , to all of which he did ample justice and took bis seat amidst much approbation . Mr . George Sham seconded the adoption of the petition in a speech of considerable ability , which demonstratedhis general knowledge with the matter in hand . He also took a rapid glance at the causes which have given rise to the struggles upon the continent of Europe , and returned home to Ireland , where death by hunger and want wears its mantle

of solitude . Mr . . Smart resumed his seat : loudly cheered . -. : The Chairman- submitted the petition to the meeting which it unanimously approved of , and upon a vote being taken it was also agreed to entrust it to Captain Fordyce , the city member , for presenta ' - tion , with a request that he support its prayer : Mr . John Smart then said he had a motion to propose for the consideration of the meeting . The motion embodied a vote of censure onthe govern- ' ment of Prance , for having sent un armed force to Rome with the intention to work the ' overthrow of the republic , and recall the Pope with hia menagerie of cardinals and priests—a very pretty batch indeed to impose upon any people . But th £ people of Rome have told us they have had enough
Ot these holy people ; they would rather have the liberty to choose men to rule over them who eschew saintship and drive , other callings more in accordance with fair dealing and common sense . The heroes of Rome have made up their minds to be juggled no longer ^ and have signified their fixed determination rather to die than submit to the dictation of France or the domination ' of Popes and priests . Mr . Smart then read the ' resolution as follows : — " That this meetmgitviejivs ' wftn horror and disgust the conduct of the republican fo vernment of France , for having sent an army of ired ruffians to the Roman States to overthrow the Republic which has been proclaimed in that country . That this meeting , while it sympathises with the Romans in their present struggle to maintain their acquired liberty , cannot withhold a just meed of praise for the heroism and marked bravery hitherto displayed in the defending their inalienable
right to choose their own form of government—a right which the French themselves hold most sacred , and would defend to the death . " ( Cheers . ) Mr . Smart then spoke on the present state of France , and concluded by remarking that the real lovers of the constitution had in that country to fly for their life , while those who were working its overthrow were receiving the greatest honours . What , ( said he , ) could be more constitutional , than the open and candid avowal of Ledru Rollin , to bo ready and willing to defend the constitution with the sword ? Yet , this noble patriot and others who approved the sentiment , have been treated as conspirators , and in order to save their lives have sought shelter in foreign climes . Mr . Smart resumed bis seat very much applauded . Mr . M'Donald seconded the resolution , and dwelt at great length upon the hypocritical and villanous conduct of the French towards the Romans . He laid bare the conduct of the
President of the French who showed by his general character and conduct ho was only a sham republican ; otherwise , he would long ere now have stood forth in the cause of Hungary , which was that of liberty . He , Mr . M'Donald ) depicted in strong ' terms the vile character of the ministry of any republican government , who would stand aloof and witness the genius of liberty overwhelmed by the unity of armed despots . He adverted generally to the struggles throughout Europe for liberty , and concluded by reminding the people while civil war was raging in other countries not to forget their peaceful agitation at home . Get the Charter , ( said he ) and the despots of Eastern Europe will tremble and let fall the chains of their slaves . Mr . M'Donald resumed his seat amidst marks of the greatest approbation . The resolution having been put from the chair was carried unanimously . Thanks having been given to the chairman , the meeting separated with hearty cheers for the Charter .
The Kirkdale Chartist Prisoners To Their...
THE KIRKDALE CHARTIST PRISONERS TO THEIR MANCHESTER BRETHREN . Brother Chartists , —We , the undersigned , feel it an imperative duty to reply to the letter of the Manchester Council which appeared in the Northern Star of Saturday last . We cannot conceive that the letters which emanated from us contained anything to justify the remarks contained in that strange and unintelligible document , neither can we see any reason why the Council should interfere in a matter which more particularly concerned the Victim Committee . The letters of Mark W . Norman and Daniel Donovan were simple statements of facts descriptive of our position in this p lace , and were called for by some remarks attached to a balance
sheet published a few weeks back m the Star by the Manchester Victim Committee , in which they requested that our friends should render us no assistance , as they , the Committee , had already provided for us , thus leaving the public to infer that we had no need of any extraneous assistance . Mr . Norman having been made acquainted with the amount received by each , has written to express his opinion as to its insufficiency , and Daniel Donovan ' s letter merely sets forth the condition of his family . Now neither of these statements have been invalidated by the letter of the Manchester Council , nor-is there an attempt made to question their correctness . For what purpose then is this parade of figures and names ? The sum total of what has 1 ) een sent to us by the Committee is inserted in a lump ; but when
it is known that it had to support nine persons for seven months , it will show the truth of the assertion contained in Mr . Norman ' s le tt er , name ly , t ha t each man received 5 s . per week , with which to find food , messengers , and all other necessaries . The figures concerning Mrs . Donovan also confirm the statements contained in his letter . What , therefore , can have been the object of the parties who published this long letter ? It states that " these letters have already caused great excitement and much unpleasant sensation in the nih \ ds of the Chartist members of this locality . The unfair insinuations contained in the language of these epistles have created much anxiety , and severely wounded the feelings of the Manchester Victim Committee . " We sec nothing in these letters calculated to disturb the feelings of any body of men , and deny that they contained any unfair insinuations ; wo do not deal in insinuations ,
we stated facts , and if the delicate nerves of any portion of the Committee are disturbed at such , we cannot help them . It further states , that , " We , the Chartist Council of this locality , have unanimously agreed to examine minutely the statements , A c Having , as in duty bound , read and heard the written and oral statements made by each partythe incarcerated victims and the Victim Committee . " This is a pure and unmitigated falsehood from end to end . No such examination has taken place , and not a sentence , either orally or otherwise , has passed on the subject . We have written several letters to the Manchester Victim Committee and the Manchester Council , individually and collectively , in which we made various complaints , but received no answer , and finding ourselves treated with silent contempt we have discontinued writing to them for the last three months . We have written
a long letter concerning a libellous and most infamous printed handbill ; addressed to the working men of Manchester , signed " George Henry Smith , " in which some of the leading Chartists were held up to the public as the vilest and most infamous characters , bankrupt in principle , and devoid of honesty . We requested that our letter , which was signed by all the nine then together , should be read to the members of the Chartist body at their next meeting , and demanded that the writer of the said handbill should be called on to name the parties to whom he
alluded ; but our letter was never heard of since . We have also written several times to comp lain of the scurrilous and degrading letters that were sent from the committee to us , and which passed through the hands of the governor , but never received a particle of explanation . We have endeavoured to cause these matters to be made known to the members in Manchester , and have reason to believe that they have been kept in the dark concerning them . So much for the written and oral examination of these sensitive individuals .
This letter also charges us with " using language of ingratitude and abuse , and making statements at variance with truth . " Where are the proofs ? The statements contained in the letters of Messrs . Norman and Donovan are not disputed , and the figures supplied by the council corroborate them . They state that they " cannot at present do more than merely give a bare outline of a few facts , in opposition to assertions made b y Mrs . White and Mrs . Donovan . " We cannot understand what is meant by this allusion . It is probably a misprint . . Well , where is the outline ? Where are the facts thus promised ? We can find no such thing . And thus , after charging us with falsehood , ingratitude , and abuse , without disproviujr , or attempting to
disprove any of our statements , the writer of this precious document modestly requests you to suspend your " decisive judgment" until their " conclusive particulars " shall be exhibited to the world ; having already given you his decisive—though not very impartial—judgment , without producing a particle of his " conclusive particulars . " The charge of ingratitude we reject with disdain . We are not ungrateful to ou ' r friends , but feel thankful to the kindhearted men who have exerted themselves to aid us . Be it known that we do not class the honest and sincere Chartists who subscribe and collect monies for our use , with the plotting , scheming little knaves , who wish to gratify their empty vanity at too expense of our characters . We perfectly un-, dcrstand our position in this matter , and shall show
The Kirkdale Chartist Prisoners To Their...
by our future , as we have by our past conduct , that we are not unmindful of the services of our honest and warm-hearted friends . We appreciate their services ; and in return bare we not forfeited all that is dear to man—heme and liberty—on several occasions , in defence of " their and our principles ? How dare any i gnorant upstart charge us with ingratitude , nr the face of these undeniable facte ? 'We question whether the writer of the document in the name bf the council , has laid us under any pecwmary obligation y and we cannot believe that the Manchester council have agreed to that outrageous and nonsensical-production . The author of this y , *" , t address has been the main cause of ail the M-ieeling which exists , as far as we are concerned . He appears to have an extreme love for secret
intrigues , and back-door plots .: He has been expelled from the National Charter Association for creating mischief and dissension , and during our imprisonment he has carried on a correspondence with parties hero which , coupled with other circumstances , caused us to insist on being separated from them . The - party to whom we allude : is George Henry iSmith . ^ Such has been the annoyance . to which we haveh ® ej ^ ubjected by , . the , calumnies of this , man ah % l * Tcw'bf'his' % 611 e ^^ by the-Victim Committee appeared' to be accompanied by insult and degradation , and we have at length resolved to decline all future connexion with
any body of men with whom he may be connected , preferring to subsist on felon ' s fare rather than as insulted paupers . From this Committee or Council we now withdraw all further claim , so that the Chartist body may in future understand our real position . We have through life maintained a manly position , in defiance of a hostile government and prejudiced judges and juries , and we shall not consent to be p laced on a level with street beggars by any committee or council on earth . If that be their Chartism , it is not ours ; and we now request our friends at Todmorden , Rochdale , Manchester , Oldham ' , and elsewhere , not to forward any more money to the present Victim Committee on our behalf .
The writer of this document takes credit for relieving "our more unfortunate wives and families . " Their balance sheet proves that to be a falsehood . They have given Donovan ' s wife seventeen shillings during seven months , and nothing whatever to the wives of White or West . Whether they have done anything for Leach ' s family we are unaware , but Leach is aware of the infamous means adopted by these parties to injure his family , and deprive them of business , which he will explain on his release , two months hence . It Is also stated that wc arc supplied with pens and paper . From whom or whence ? This is also false . We have to purchase both . We did receive some paper from Messrs . Hey wood and Cooper some months back , but it has been long since used up . It is exceedingl y unpleasant to have to enter into such matters in this manner , but wc have submitted to the annoyance of the parties which we mention , whilst we feel that further silence would be almost
criminal . It now rests with the honest and sincere portion of the Chartist body to take the matter into their hands . If the Manchester Chartists think proper to elect a proper committee , Ave shall correspond with them . If any of our Chartist friends think proper to write to us from any part of England , we shall reply ; but with the present committee at Manchester wo shall hold no further
connexion . It therefore remains with our friends to adopt their own course , and take such measures as they deem necessary to prevent a repetition of the treatment we have received . The letter signed by the two poor women is a paltry , got-up business , utterly contemptible . In fact , the whole document is calculated to sink us , as a party , in the estimation of the public . Having now made our feelings known to the Chartists of England , we desire to hold no further correspondence with the persons whose names are attached to the document referred to , unless , as we suspect , they were attached without their sanction . We thank those friends who have done their duty by us up to this time , and remain , Their brothers in the cause of Chartism , George Whits , James Leach , Daniel Donovan , John West .

The City Of London Election. The Nominat...
THE CITY OF LONDON ELECTION . The nomination of a representative to sit in Parliament for the ci ( y of London in the room of Baron Lionel Rothschild , who accepted the Chiltcm Hundreds , took place on Monday , at the Guildhall , and excited , as may bo supposed from the circumstances under which it took place , intense public interest . The usual forms observed on the nomination of members to Parliament having been observed , Mr . Sheriff Fiksis begged that every individual who presented himself before the mooting might receive a fair hearing .
Mr . Raikes CmmiE proposed Baron Lionel Rothschild , as a fit person to represent the citizens in Parliament , and said , we the peaceable , the industrious , the matter-of-fact citizens of London , met together in our ancient hall ( which has witnessed so many triumphs of civil and reli g ious liberty ) , here solemnl y and deliberately throw down the gauntlet ; we pledge ourselves all to all , and each to one another , to contend by every constitutional means against the last remnant of religious persecution , and never to cease from the contest until we have achieved a victory . And will not that victory be won ? Does any man dare to doubt it ? ( Cheers . ) H ere , on this spot on which wo are now standing , close to these precincts , men from age to age once
hated , and tormented , and burnt one another ( thinking they did God service ) , because they differed in their manner of worshipping our common Father . Those dark times rolled on , but at last a voice arose —perchance " a still small voice "—and said to men , this burning , this persecuting , this interference with the rig hts of conscience , is not Christ ' s re l i gion . You are doing in all this , not—as you deem it ¦— God ' s work , but the Devil ' s work . ( Cheers . ) From the hour , ay , from the . very moment when that voice wont forth the doom of Bigotry was sealed . She has indeed fought her ground inch by inch for centuries ; she dies hard , but the life is all but out of her . Yes , when once the great truth of the rights of conscience , of the wickedness
and usclessness of persecution , had gone forth among the nations , that truth must triumph ; for , thank God ! a great truth , once launched in the world , is indestructible and irrepressible ; it has the princi p le of immortal life within it ; it must go on , conquering and to conquer . ( Loud cheers . ) You may aid it , but it aids you more ; it is growing while you are sleeping ; it shall encircle ana possess the earth . Therefore , I said , who dares to doubt of victory ? ( Loud cheers . ) For are we not contending for this-immortal truth—that conscience should bo free—that man ' s relations towards the Supreme Being shall be a thing apart from all human interference—that religious persecution shall cease for ever . ( Cheers . ) One word on our opponent , for I
am absolutely assured wo have one . We ought to be most grateful to the amiable and accomplished nobleman who relieves the flatness of a walk over the course by his unexpected appearance here today . ( Laughter . ) I have listeaed to him formerl y with some astonishment as a distinguished member of the Young England , or white waistcoat party—a benevolent association of young gentlemen to effect the restoration of mediaeval institutions . ( Cheers and laughter . ) Gentlemen , the sages of antiquity were wont to compass the wisdom of a life in some pithy apothegm—some short saying—a kind of concentrated essence Of sagacity to be carried in the waistcoat pocket . Now , fortunately , the noble lord
has embalmed his political creed in short but immortal verse—in a far-famed and well-known couplet—the most comprehensive , conclusive , unanswerable little thing , which must secure him your sympathy and support . Listen , I beseech you" Let laws and learning , wealth and commerce die , " But leave us still our old nobility . " I am not an advocate , in general , for electioneering placards or banners , but here is a sentiment which well deserves them ; let it be printed , I beseech you , in Gothic characters , on a true-blue ground , and hung over his committee-room . It Will do a great deal for him . I am not sure that it will not do for him altogether . ( Cheers and laug hter . ) Mr . Dillon having seconded the nomination of Baron Rothschild
, Mr . T . Baring moved , and Sir Peteb Laurie seconded , the nomination of Lord John Manners . The voices of both the mover and seconder were lost amid the most discordant yells . The laughter and disorderly noises which greeted the close of the Alderman ' s address , speedily changed their character on the appearance of Baron Rothschild in front of the hustings , whose reception was as gratifying as that of the preceding speakers had been the reverse . Silence having been in some measure obtained— ' o . . ¦
Baron Rothschild spoke as follows : - " ^ l ™ * men , nearly two years have elapsed since I had the honour of presenting myself to you in the same capacit y as that in which I now com e forward to solicit your suffrages , ( Cheers . ) At that election you had an opportunity of expressing yew opmions
The City Of London Election. The Nominat...
on the great question of reli gious freedom , and , by electing me your representative , you proved that it ia not necessary to test a roan ' s religious creed before you entrust him with great public dnties . ( Cheers . ) You expressed yow opinions—1 say it with feelings of prowl satisfaction — and recorded your verdict emphatically against bigotry a « d intolerance , and you decided that in the cit / ef London reli gious distinctions and dfofmalificationBshould no longer exist . ( Loud cheesing . ) During those two years of confidence and indulgence oil ' year part , I was most anxious to . follow out your vie # s with respect to the attainment of the common objeet of our wishes , and I have especially consulted with the committee nominated at the meeting of
the 1 st M rebruary ,. and have ^ carefully weighed with them our proceedings . I filter myself I wc-vr come before you encouraged by approval of that conduct and policy ; but ufois is no tnsc for dwelling upon details , We mest hero to-day for a great cause , and for the promotion of principles which you yourselves were the fls-st to advocate . ( Cheers , ) Yon , electors of London , can ; proudly say that you were , the first to assault the - last barriei ' of religious intolerance ,-and , you are now called upen to assort and maintain your undoubted ' constitutional right of selecting your own representative . ( Greaffcheering and ' applause . ) There can be ns doubt , gentlemen , that you are acting as constitutionally in ' giving your votes to the candidate of your choice , , as the
Lords are acting constitutionall y in rejecting' a bill passed in two consecutive sessions-in the House of Commons . I believe that their lordships were guided by what they supposed to be the best possible motives ; but have we not always seen that determined demonstration of public opinion was necessary before any great measure could be carried , and that if strong convictions in favour of any particular principle were-found prevalent among the people ,-such convictions and wishes and determinations must be manifested many times—( cheers ) — oefore they could win assent from all the constituted authorities ? ( Cheers . ) I seek , then , your assistance to make clear to the Upper House the strong conviction , the conscientious belief , and the earnest
desire of this great constituency . ( Cheers . ) And what , let me ask you , is that wish—what that conscientious conviction ? You believe that the peculiar tenets of a man ' s religious faith ought not to be a cause of obstruction in his path of civil duty —( cheers)—provided he be a good citizen —( cheers)—and you wish to see that maxim practically enforced . Gentlemen , we were told but a-few nights ago , on very high authority , that while there exists a great sympathy between the Houses of Lords and Commons , the former presents a check on the other as against precipitate expressions of popular feeling . This privilege , then , has been exercised , and the Lords have prevented what they deem a too hasty acquiescence in popular opinion upon the question with which I am identified . It
remains for us to show that it was no hastily formed opinion , by reiterating former votes—( cheers)—and by re-asserting the principles upon which I had the honour to be returned as your representative . ( Groat cheering and applause . ) Gentlemen , knowing that our common desire is just and reasonable—that our mode is constitutional and safe—and that truth and justice are on our side , I come forward respectfully , but confidently , to claim your suffrages . I seek to be elected to the preud distinction of being your representative . Having identified myself with you at the last election in successfully asserting the great principles of civil and religious liberty , I now come forward trusting that we shall triumphantly carry out those principles , and vindicate our rights and privileges .
The Baron then retired amid the same demonstrations of favour as greeted his appearance . Lord Jons Manners came forward , but was received with such a torrent of yells , groans , and discordant sounds of every description , that his words were inaudible even to the reporters close beside him . After ah ineffectual attempt by the sheriff to gain a heaving for the noble lord , Baron Rothschild entreated the meeting to hear him . His lordship advanced to address the meeting , but his presence was hailed with the same volleys of groans and hisses , and no entreaties made on his behalf appeared to have the slightest effect on the great mass of the meeting . The whole of his address , therefore , was delivered amidst a storm of voices , and
so completely did his opponents succeed in tlie object they had in view , that those immediately beside lum could only catch mere fragments of sentences , and were almost entirely dependent on their imagination for any clue to his meaning . The noble lord was understood to say , that if after those " appeals which had been made to them , they still-refused to listen to him , ho must , of course , bow to the decision of the meeting ; and he must appeal from those who were in that hall to the public of this city , who would bo disposed to listen to the arguments on botli sides . He appeared there as a candidate for the honour of representing the great city of London ; not to gratify any personal ambition , but as the vindicator of the law , as the
maintainor of the indefeasible privileges of the Upper House of Parliament , and as the assertcr of the ri g ht of every branch of English industry to be encouraged by the Imperial Legislature . ( Hear , hear . ) On any ordinary occasion he should not have appeared at this meeting ; the feeling of private regard and esteem ' which he entertained for his lion , opponent would have prevented him from crossing his path ; but he felt that at this great crisis it was absolutely necessary that the gauntlet which had been thrown clown should be taken up , and that this important constituency should at least have the option of choosing between the candidate who invited them to venture into a collision with the legislature of the land , and one who , like
himself , invited them to respect the decision of the leg islature , and to exercise the franchise which they enjoyed in a practical manner . He asked the meeting to view , at least , with deliberation the result of this contest which was thus precipitately forced upon them . Were they , the advocates of religious freedom , and the sticklers for the rights of conscience , prepared to deny to that great deliberative assembly , which from time immemorial had exercised the hi g hest functions of legislation—were they , he asked , prepared to deny to that deliberate assembly the rig ht of exercising their free and unfettered judgment in matters of the hi ghest import 1 W ere they prepared to demand that fifty new peers should be created in order to overbear the conscientious
convictions of the majority of the House of Lords ? Were they prepared , year after year , and session after session to renew this barren strife , and to waste the public time in this vain attempt to confer upon his lion , opponent privileges which ( he said it without meaning any disparagement or discourtesy to him ) were denied to men , nay , to whole classes , who were equally worthy with himself ? Ho said , then , that if his non . opponent should be returned , he was incapable of sitting in the House of Commons . But he went further , and asserted that his hon . opponent professed political opinions which ho trusted this great commercial constituency would no longer hesitate to repudiate . His lion , opponent was one of those who thought they ought to patronise foreign
industry at the expense 01 luigush labour ; that they should raise £ 50 , 000 , 000 of taxation from a people who were exposed to the free competition oft'the labour of other countries ; that they should , perpetuate the system of excise , and-the obnoxious impost of the income tax —( hear )—and that they should set aside the experience of ages and the practice of ail other countries , for the sake of an unintelligible and incongruous theory . _ These , however ,, were the princip les which her Majesty ' s ministers , had devoted themselves to carry out , and which his hon .. opponent , if elected , would aid and ajset them in carrying out . Therefore it was that he called upon the citizens , the constituency of this groat
commercial city , to repudiate those opinions ,: and to shaw that the reaction which Sir J . Graham , two years ago , had denied the possibility of , and the reality of which , only two months ago , he had been forced to admit , was felt in all our crowded streets , and on the busy marts of this great emporium of coraaiercc . We were called practical people ; and yei three years ago we had keen induced to adopt the system of free imports , in the hope that our example , being speedily followed by other countries , would be converted into one of general Tree Trade . . How had ) those hopes bc * n realised ? Let thcn \ look around them , and say if inanj coiwitry there had beendiscon vered a sign even of that example being follows !;' Yes , let them look around
them'' Let observation , with extensive view , Survey mankind from China to Peru , "' and see whether such had bsea the resu \^ , ( Tremendous uproar . ) . He would ; no longer ; with his feeble voice attempt to combat the clamour of those gentlemen who appeared to have attended for the purpose of shouting hira down . He took his leave of the meeting now , with a fixed resolve to give-to the electors of this great city the opportunity of recording their votes in favour of niaintaining intact the great institutions of this country , of promoting the welfare of our native industry , and of fostering , conserving , and perpetuating the Imperial glory oi Imperial England . i On a show of hands , being called for , Mr .

The Miners Of Lancashire. To The Editor ...
THE MINERS OF LANCASHIRE . TO THE EDITOR Oi - THE SOUTHERN STAR . Sik , —I bog to inform you that the miners of this county are commencing to organise themselves again in the bonds of . union . Oppression is doing its work , and the continued reduction of wages is compelling them to > m the uni . in . Several meetings have been held lately at the Swan with Two Necks , Spring-lane , near Bury ; Bull ' s Head , Radcliffe-bridgc ; Queen Ann , Little Lever ; Farmer ' s Arms , Daroy Levers and at the Boar ' s Head , Bolton . On June 55 th a delegate meeting was held at the Weavers' Arms , Scholes , Wigan , when several letters were read from members of
Parliament , sympathising with the miners , and stating their willingness to . support Mr . Duncombe in the measure pending before the House . A letter from Mr . Judc , of Newcastle , was also read , drawing the attention of the miners of this county to tlw Select Committee appointed on the motion of Lord Wharnclilfe in the House of Lords , on Monday , 18 th of June , and pointing out the necessity , of somebody being heard before the committee ,, to state the working man s side of the question ; . for if nobody but masters , viewers , and managers , are to be examined , little" benefit will accrue to the miners . The following resolutions were unanimously agreed to : —
"That it is highly desirable that soma persons representing the opinions of the v . - ovklng miners should be examined before the Select Committee of the House of Lords , appointed to inquire into the best means of preventing the explosions in coal mines .
