The memorial -was proposed by Mr . Barley , and seconded by Mr . Cooper , and ably supported by Mr . Skevingten , ( the East and North Riding lecturer ) and Mr . P . Brannon , from tie Isle of Wight , and carried _unanimonaly The memorial is as _follows : —

      To the Right Honourable Sir James Graham , principal Secretary of State for the Home Department . The memorial of the inhabitants of the city of York , agreed to at a public meeting , held on Thursday , Sept 31 th , 1841 : Respectfully sheweth _, —That Robert Peddie , William Brooks , and others were convicted at the York Spring Assises , 1810 , for conspiracy and riot , at Bradford , and sentenced to three years' imprisonment ; the said Root . Peddie , in the House of Correction , _Beverley ; William Brooks , in the Honse of Correction , Northallerton ; aDd several others to the House of Correction , Wak e fi e ld _, that during the imprisonment of the aforesaid prisoners , they have been subjected to the horrid restrictions of the silent system , the effects of ¦ which upon their health and constitutions are so injurious that their physical pewers are being unpaired .

      That the aforesaid prisoners have yei accordm _? to the time of their sentence , one year and a hairs-imprisonment , to suffer under the unnatural and destructive system of prison discipline , trhicU 13 fast ruining their healths . That your memorialists believe that the Government to ¦ which you belong ¦ will not suffer a system to exist that is sacrificing the present and future healths of prisoners confined for political offences ; a system about which there ii something so outrageous to common humanity in the bare supposition of such _cruelty , that your memorialists believe they have only to lay their case before the present Government , i n o r der to secure for the said prisoners , if not an abreviatioB of their terms of imprisonment . , at least a relaxation of their prison treatment , or what we yet most earnestly

      petition for , a removal of the said Robert Peddie , William Brooks , and others , to some ether places of confi n e m ent , ¦ where the horrcrs of the silent system are n » t _inflicied ,- f nrther , your memorialists sbeweth that the said Robert Peddie , Willi / vm Brooks , and others , nowsuffering in Wakefleld House of Correction , were con-Ticted on the evidence of one James Harrison , that this aid James Harrison 'was the chief insti ga t o r of the said conspiracy and riot , and admitted that he had received £ 80 from the authorities at Bradford , f « r his labour in this business—that the said James Harrison "was at the time a notorious informer against poor publicans , and continued to be such until the magistrates refuse- ;! to take his evidence—that he has left his wife and family to the care of the parish , and is now in Preston Gaol , waiting his trial for horse stealing .

      That your memorialists submit these facts to your Honour , in the hope that they may induee your Honour to recommend the case of the said Robert Peddie , Wm . Brooks , and others to royal favour , they having been convicted on the evidence of so bad a character as the said James Harrison . And your _memorialists ¦ will ever pray . Signed , On behalf cf the meeting , Robee . 1 Demain , Chairman . York , Sept . 30 th , 1 S 41 .

      SAC UP . —Hargraves , the Com Law humbug , Eaid that this place was one hundred years behind any other in point of civilization , but had he said one hundred years before any other in point of tyranny , he ¦ would have said aright But the men have been awakened to a sense of their duty , and are determined not to be trampled on any longer . There has been an Association formed , and it consists of fifty members , although o n ly began o ne w eek , and is nightly increasing ; we have had an address from Messrs . Marsden and _Tattersall , of Burnley , i n t he ope n air , -which was well attended , and they expounded the principles of the Charter in a ciear and manly style , which was lisiesed to with intense

      interest . The meeting -was very quiet , with the exception of seme interruption from a Blue Bottle , who is known in Bacup by the name of ' -Past Eleven , " alias " little Bobby , " and two Cotton Lords , one of whom actually can neither read © r write , and the other -we pass by in silent contempt ; but if again they annoy us , we shall lay their names and _character before * the public . The meeting gave three cheers for _Ftargus O'Connor ; three cheers for the Charter ; and three cheers for the speakers ; and then separated . Thus has the niost tyrannical little village in England been eroEcn in upon by the perseverance cf the working men . —We have to acknowled ge t h e r ecei pt of Si 3 d . from Rockdiffe calico block printers and a few other friends .

      on the editor of ths WteV . y Dispatch for the paragraph at the head of _Notice to Correspondents , headed _Poiitieal Blood Hounds , for his partial conduct , in selecting such extracts frrm the sermon of Mr . _WatkiD ? , as best suited to the views of his own mind , to calumniate the Char tists generally _ss _^ _aga-agT-np of the deepest die ; and that the Eaid editor is deserving the censure of every honest and upright mind for the one-sided view ¦ which he has taken in the said paragraph contained in the Dispatch of Sunday , the 3 rd of October , and that ¦ we are determined to support no other portion of the press but that which _supports the rights and liberties of the _industrious miYdcns . "

      COVENTRY , —Chartism . — A public lecture was announced to take place on Friday , at eight o ' clock , in ths George Room , Little Park-street . At the-hour appointed , the ' . arge room was nearly filled—Mr . _Mahon , of Manchester , in the chair . After a few _appropriate and pithy observations , the chairman introduced Mr . Mason , as iLP . for Gateshead , Mr . Mason mounted the platform , amid the plaudits of the assembly . He commenced by saying that the Charter must become the law of the land , to enable the poor oppressed _working man to better bis condition , and render his home eonv fortable and happy . He _Ehowad the meeting , - in s cltar and forcible manner , the benefits to be derived

      from a democratic Government , based upon the prin caples of the People * b Charter . He made allusions to tb French Revolution , spoke of the conduct of the miuell « iasses towards Robespiere , and warned the people c England against putting any faith in middle class prc _minpg He touched upon various topics _^ and finisha by a most eloquent appeal to the young men present t assist in obtaining the Charter . He sat down amii thundering applause , after speaking for nearly tw hours . Mr . Thomas Marshall proposed a vote 0 thanks to the lecturer for his able and talented lecture which was seconded by Mr . _Biackwell , and carrief unanimously . Thanks were given to the chairman , an < the meeting quietly dispersed , highly pleased with th

      _nJghti proceedings . _ABERSAVENNY . _—Wfr keep progressing here and cautious who we admit into our Association . Wi transmitted to the executive £ 1 , and we shall _contantu to support them as far _ts in us lies . At our weekl _; meeting of Monday , the 27 th _Lsstant , it was propose * fcy Mr . Griffiths and seconded by Mr . Holbrook , " Th * we , the Chartist * of Abergavenny , in public meetinj assembled , through the columns of the Star , do mos respectfully assure the slaving millions of our Irisl brethren , that we shall never test until the Gairter , U the fullest extent be given to Ireland as well as England and farther , te use every lawful and eonstitutiona

      means in oar power , and never to rest satisfied , even a the risk of our life and property , _nntil equal justice i meted out to England , Ireland , Scotland , and Wales . ' We would also snggest , that such resolutions shonl ( grace the pages of the Star from every Association ii England , Scotland , and Wales , thereby showing U Irishmen that we are their real friends , and nbs as th big Beggarman , Dan , has chosen to call us , the open foe Erin go bragh ! At the same meeting , a vote of cen sore was passed npon Henry Hetherington , for his bas and cowardly conduct , in challenging the Ptople ' Friend , who had just come from his cold cell , after _i Jong confinement , and whose time was taken up in ten

      dering his rerpects to the friends who so kindly invited him all _roosd the kingdom . We hope , for the future , that Friend O'Connor will think Bach men beneath his notice , for , rest assured , he is too closely entwined around the hearts of an enlightened people , that any attack which he ot any of his party could attempt in order to sever him from them would prove fruitless . — Mr . Black lectured here on the 30 th alt , and although we h * d but one hour ' s notice , the room was crowded . This is the first lecture given on Chartism here , except by our own members . Several of the middle class men were there , and were highly pleased with the discourse It was proposed that two lecturers be appointed for Monmouthshire and Glamorganshire , and that oar Association contribute their share ; on the show of hands being taken , the Chairman declared it unanimous .

      _DROGHBDA We have seen a private letter from a good Chartist in Drogheda to Mr . Peter Hoey , from which we give the following : — " I also want to know from you , as agent of the Northern Star , whether you can send me the Star as early as Sunday morning ; for there are thirteen in number who wish to buy the paper , and give you the credit of sending it , if you can let us have it by the time above-mentioned . We have received a good supply of Stars this last fortnight , but still they are not half equal to the demand fer them ; so great bas been the spread of Chartist principles since you left ; of course I mean the working classes—and some of those who were ready to knock

      a man down for being a Coartist a few weeks since Many , indeed , are the conversions these last few days to Chartism , notwithstanding all the fearful opposition it has met with . And I have to inform you that there axe two clubs more to be formed in other parts of the town , for the purpose of having the Star on Sunday morning . The Tontine society , which Michael Crosby belongs to , called a general meeting of the society for the purpose of putting him out , for the treasonable crime of reading the Star ;¦ and after bringing all their powers to bear on him , they failed . We are preparing to send eighty names to be enrolled in the Dublin Universal Suffrage Association . "

      PERTH . —Mr . J . B . O'Brien ' s release from Lancaster Castle was announced on Friday last , by-the display of a considerable number of flags ; and in the afternoon a _meetinz was held in Canal Crescent , to congratulate him on the event The evening was wet , and somew hat boiste r ous , and the meeting was held at an unusually early hour ; owing to this , and other concurring causes , it was but thinly attended . They agreed , however , to several resolutions , and an address . was read , and unanimously approved of ; and a committee was appointed to forward it to Mr . O'Brien without delay . — ( Received too late for our last )

      CARLISLE . — -The Council-of the Carlisle Radical Association held its usual weekly meeting , on Sat u rday _eveniDg last , when arrangements were entered into fer the defence of William B ' . ake , who stands charged with assaulting . a policeman , during the late election fer the Borough . We mentioned this case a few weeks ago , and gave the substance of the evidence against Blake , as given before the magistrates at the Town Hall , and had tho u gk t _, from the character of that evidence , _tk-at the prosecution would have been stayed . Indeed , the Mayor , John Dixon _, Esq , told a deputation , who waited upon him to make the necessary enquiry , that , except it was " a very flagrant case indeed , he woultl endeavour to stop the prosecution , as he thought there had been a sufficiency of such prosecutions ; and that he

      would examine the depositions . " On the deputation ea ! ling again , they were astonished to find , t hat the magistrates who _committed Blake would not give way . so that the prosecution will go on at the forthcoming Sessions , which are to be held at Cockermouth , in the course of a fortnight The defence of Blake will cost upwards of five pounds—in addition to what has already been expended in the other cases—a Bum not less than from thirty to forty pounds—all of which has been raistd by penny subscriptions The prosecutions will h & ve cost the _Barough a much larger sum—not less , ve suppose , than one Lundred pounds ! Thus has the poor been put to much expence and inconvenience , and the borough to the expenditure of an enormous sum of

      money , which has been _squandered away in silly and uncalled-for prosecutions , with one exception . We would recommend U _: e people to call upon some one of the Town Council to move for a return of all the expences of the late prosecutions arising out of the borough election ; and thus show to the inhabitants how the funds of the tewn have been expended . Did these Whig borough magistrates act with the same rigour and caution at the county election when Sir Jamps Graham , the Home Secretary , was most shamefully treated ; when , as he retired from the hustings , a parcel of hired ruffians attacked him and his friends on their way to the Bosh Inn , broke Sir James ' s umbrella over his head , ill-treated his son , and assaulted his party with brickbats and other missiles ? Ne ! they

      allowed all these gross outrages to pass over without the slightest attempt to bring the offenders to justice ! nay , we may go further and say , that , wa were grieved to hear some of the Whig party rejoice at the ill-treatment Sir James had met with . Nor can we pass over the conduct of some of these same gentlemen , previous to the passing of the Reform Bill . Aye ! these were the palmy days of Whig agitation , when neither life nor property was safe , when our present mayor ( not then so tenacious of our laws ) actually recommended the people at a public meeting , to pay no more taxes , but to button up their breeches pockets—when our marketplace nightly glared with the flimes of torches , to exhibit to a gazing and _headless throng , the effigies of the Dake of Wellington , the bis h ops , Colonel Lowther and others , about to be se ; fire to , in the public

      Marketplace , amidst the maddening shouts of an infuriated and deluded c r o w d , and the heartless laughter of the enti r e W hig faction . This was conduct sufficiently disgraceful in _itatlf ; but what will be thought of the party , when we state thit some of the very Whig leaders not only countenanced such disorderly proceeding , but actually encouraged them , by subscribing money , and furnishing old clothes to fabricate the effigies , which previous to their being burnt , were examined by them and admired for the Iikenes 3 they bore to the originals ? One leading Whig , on seeing the procession which was headed by a placard , containing in large letters the alarming and bminous words " death to ths constitution , " considered he could add to its brilliancy , and to accomplish this , he purchased a pint of turpentine , in which to steep the torches . Aye , aye ; we cannot but rembember such things were . —Correspondent

      Contemplated Reception of Mr . _Fzargus _O'Cos . nok . —A motion was brought forward in the Council to the effect " That the Council use every exertion to give Mr . O Connor a hearty and respectful reception , when he visits Carlisle ; but owing to the depressed state of the funds , and William Blake having to be defended , they cannot enter into arrangements for an expensive demonstration , which may involve the association in a debt , which they will be unable to liquidate , owing to the great poverty of a majority of its members . " Every one present seemed to participate in the desire that every respect should be paid to Mr . O'Connor , for his great public services .

      BLACKWOOD . —Revival op Chartism . —The good cause is still alive at Blackwood . We have , it is true , been very apathetic of late , but thanks to the Corn La w r epeale r s , we are in a fair way of _i-haking off our indifference , and once moie resuming our old position in the Chartist ranks , with the advantage , too , of having added considerably to our stock of experience , without , I trust , having lost any of that enthusiasm which characterised our movements in days gone by . A meeting had been convened by the Corn Law repealers , to be holden at Penmain Chapel , near Blackwood , on Saturday last , the 2 nd instant , to discuss the propriety of memorializing her Majesty upon the present distressed slate of the country ; but upon its being whispered about that the Chartists were expected to

      attend , the managers of the chapel , in their Christian libe r ali ty , would not permit the meeting to be held there ; but another chapel being soon procured , the business 6 f the meeting proceeded . Candour , however , demands that we should not attribute any of this illiberal feeling to Messrs . Jenkins and Ellis , the Rev . gentlemen who had been the means of ge t ti n g up t he meeting , and we feel sorry that gentlemen of such " liberal opinions should content themselves with standing forward for any thing short of the whole " rights of man . " The Rev . Mr . Ellis opened the proceedings with prayer . The Rev . gentleman then moved " That the Rev . Mr . Jenkins , Fleur de Lis , do t ake the chai r , " which having been seconded , was carried without opposition . The Rev . Gentleman proceeded to state the

      ob jects for which the meeting was called together , and advocated , at some length , the plan for obtaining a repeal of tha Corn _Livra recommended by the conference lately held at Manchester ; he concluded by calling upon Mr . Ellis , Independent minister , Monythyslwn , to move the first resolution , which was to the following effect , — " That this meeting deeply feeling for the _present distressed state of the country , t h r ough the operation of the Corn Laws , deem it of importance that a memorial be presented to the Queen , praying her not to prorogue Parliament nntil the question be fully discussed , and effectual measures adopted , for theii abolition . " The resolution having been briefly seconded by Mr . R Davies _, Blackwood , Mr . W . G . Daviea rose to move the following amendment : — " That this

      meeting humbly , yet firmly , address her Majesty , praying her to exercise her prerogative by dissolving the Parliament sow sitting ; and that this meeting farther implere her Majesty in her kindly feelings towards an oppressed , afflicted , and immoderately-taxed people , that she will immediately dismiss her present Ministry , and call _t"pt ) to her councils who will propose to the new Parliament such measures as shall secure to the people a full and fair representation in the legislature . The mover of the amendment was ef opinion that the corn monopoly was a great injustice , but it was not the greatest injustice . There was another injustice as great , nay , greater , and more monstrous

      than that ; he meant that monopoly which gave to a section of the community the power of disposing of the means , and even the lives of the majority . Sorely , the men without votes had no hand in producing the present frightful state of society . The privileged classes had had it all to themselves . Now that they had proved their incompetency to govern , let others be called in to assist He then proceeded to shew what class law-making had done for them ; how it had expended thousands of millions of the people ' s money in crusades against humanity's rights . He concluded with _Feargus O'Connor's motto , " 'Universal Suffrage and n » Surrender . " Mr . W . Miles , of Merthyr , seconded

      York.—A Public Meeting Ra Held On Thursd...

      the amendment in Welsh , and brought forward some statistical facts connected with the price of corn before and since the passing of the corn tax . He then referred to the factory system ,, and the application of steam power to manufactures , snowing that machinery had oat-marched lsw making . Sir Arthur _O'Davies , Woodfield , supported , the amendment . He was for teaching the peop le , and giving them opportunities of obtaining all sorts of knowledge , bat , above all , be was for teaching them a knowledge of their rights . He was for giving the people power to do away with all bad laws ; bat he was for wasting no more time with

      patching and propping up . He concluded by calling npon the meeting to press the amendment The amecdm « nt was put to the meeting , when the Chairman , after having put the resolution , declared the amendment to be carried . Sir A . ODavies then moved , That the Chairman be requested to draw up and sign an address to her Majesty , embodying the sentiments contained in the amendment , and that the address be forwarded to Lord Brougham for presentation . Mr E . Rees , of Merthyr , then addressed the meeting briefly in Welsh , and concluded by seconding Mr . Davies ' s resolution . A _vate of thanks having been carried to the Chairman , the meeting separated .

      MIDDLESBRO . —A delegate meeting will be held here on Sunday , ths 10 th of October , when delegates are expected from Stockton , Darlington , Yarm , _Hartlepool , _Stokesley , and other places , for the purpose of making permanent arrangements for the proper organization of the above mentioned places , and also to consider what would be the most efficient plan of agitating the above named districts in favour of the People ' s Charter . The meeting will take place at two o ' clock in the afternoon' at the Working Men ' s Reading Room , 15 , Newcastle-row .

      SELBT .... On Friday evening , Mr . Skevington , the East-Riding Missionary , visited this town according to announcement in the Star of last week , and delivered a splendid lecture in the New Victoria Room , which had been engaged for the occasion . The room was well filled with a very respectable and orderly company , which consisted chiefly of Mr . O'Connor ' s faithful " lads , " namely , the blistered hands and true hearts . There were several middle-class men present , and a fair portion of the fair sex , to whom Mr . S . gave some very g o od hi n ts , which is to be hoped will not be lost si ght of by them . To attempt to give even a mere outline of his talented , able and instructive oration would be folly indeed suffice it to say , that the worthy gentleman gave universal satisfaction to all present , and at the close , a subscription was entered into towards defraying the _expences of the room , when a handsome sum was raised . Chartism is increasing in and around this place . Every meeting night brings new members .

      _ASHTON-TODER-IYNE .- James Bronterre O'Brien , Esq . —On Saturday last this indefatigable , talented , and persecuted gentleman , visited Ashton by invitation , and delivered a _pleasing and soul stirring lecture , to a crowded andattentive audienco . On Mr . O'Brien making his appearance he was greeted by long _aud loud continued cheering and clapping of hands . Mr . O'Brien spoke for three hours and was cheered throughout .
