The National Reform League. A Pu Blic Me...
THE NATIONAL REFORM LEAGUE . A pu blic meeting , convened by the Council of * te National Reform League , was held at the i . -i-jctic Institution , No . " ISa , Denmark-street , v ijo , on Monday evening last , for the purpose of pahioning parliament for inquiry into the cruel treatment experienced by Messrs . Jones , Fussell , ] 5 :-zer , and other political prisoners . After a few remarks from the Chairman , Mr . CrEDo . v , F . O ' Gossob , Emi , TO ., exhorted the working classes to unity of action , the want of which had hitherto impeded their cause , but which he would still hope soon to see achieved . They bad Bronierre O'Brien with them , than whom no man was
better qualified to give them good advice—a man who had sacrificed his prospects in life , in ordcr . to sevote his powerful mind entirely to the advocacy of their cauSe , but for which he might at this moment have been at the Lead of his professionperhaps a judge—and certainly a fellow in Trinity < jsik- 'e , and concluded a very energetic address by -, roi » siiig tlie following resolution;— " This mcct' B ^ ' observes , with indignation and regret , that of h ? c vears ( especially since the Reform Act gave inci c-jied political power to the middle classes ) there bus " been manifested , on the part of Judges and juri" -ind of tlie crown also , a growing disposition to " confonnd differences of political opinion with criminal : md illegal acts , and to punish the : former / when cxjinssed ' airaiust class legislation ) with as < reat and even greater rigour than the law awards
to crime itself . Such practice tms meeting nolds to be disffraceful to a civilised country , and dan-^ eTOasto ~ the public safety , inasmuch as it stifles the free expression of individual opinion , closes the l egitimate channels of public complaint , and tends , throug h the preventing of free discussion , to force tie injured and discontented classes to have recDHrse to secret and illegal combinations . For conf filiation of these alleged truths this meeting appe als to the harsh and cruel sentences passed in 33 upon Mr . Ernest Jones and bis fellow prisoner s : aud that these sentences were carried out ia a ir . anner even more harsh and rrnel than the law or the sentences waiTanted , we way infer from the petition of Mr . Ernest Jones to the House of Commons , praying for parliamentary inquiry into his c-:.= e .
> 3 r . O'Bries , in seconding tne resolution , explained that , however proper it might be for Mr . Jones to confine his petition to Lis own case , yet ihe National Jteforai League , as a . body , could not lilt take up tre affair on public grounds , and include all tbe political prisoners who were sentenced at the same time , and for the some cause . Several of the ex-prisoners were on the platform , at J expressed themselves highly graced at the opportunity thus afforded them . Messrs . Bezer . Fusseli , Bkysox , and Gurxey , entered most feelingly into various minute details of ike inhuman treatment tbey bad endured , and wliea made a deep impression on the meeting . Mr . I'ezer moved a vote of thanks to theCounci ! of the National Reform League for their patriotic conduct on this occasion , which was sec . v .-ied by another of the victims , and enthusiastical ! v accorded by the meetin ? .
A petition , founded on the above resolution , was read , and unanimously agreed to ; and also , that Lord Stanhope be requested to present the same in Ene House of Lords , and Mr , "Wakley in the House of Commons . The resolution and petition were drawn up by Mr . 0 'Drien , and gave universal satisfaction to the victims and their friends .

gentleman ; and that agent who would attempt to suppress tbe Star , by withholding his orders , is Certainly a ' snake in the gras ? , " as well as a contemptible being , merely because he differs in opinion withthe proprietor of any paper . I would not do it with the most rampant Tory , much more with one wbose political opinions I have advocated and admired for upwards of 40 years . Of this the people of Treston—and James Brown in particular—are well aware ; bnt that the real defaulter should be made known , I believe , was the object in view in writing th = t letter . Now , sir , I order my papers from Mr . Harkness , ia Preston ; aud lie positivel y declares he
THE 3 JEWS AGENTS . TO THE EDITOR OF TUE SOUTHERN STAR . Sir . , —In your paper of last week 1 saw a letter £ jced James Brown , and beaded " Snakes in the Grass . " He tells you , " that . James Bolton gave up his Star iu consequence of his not receiving the p ' ate of the Interior of the Crystal Palace , which he ordered several times from me . " In this he speaks truly . James Bolton has been a customer of mine for many years , and always took the » 5 far till ibis disappointment , lie always told me he wanted it , not only for its merit , but to pay bis shilling for it , to encourage Feargus . " These were his words—he always being a great admirer of that
ordered that plate many times for me from his a » ciils in London , bnt could never get supplied vsthit—consequently , 1 stand acquitted ol being instrumental in attempting to destroy the Star ; Kit that the attempt has been made , both with the Stir a :: d other democratic works , I fully believe ; but li'jpc the time is not fir distant when the Democracaud Social Reformers of this and every Other tf'SMrj will have a fair field and no favour . It is ^ U i re ask { and no less we intend to have . Believe me , sir , your ' s in tbe cause of freedom , Edward Swixclehcrst , Newsagent . 22 , Bridge-lane , Preston , July 7 th , 1851 .

THE LAND DIRECTORS . TO THE EDITOR OF THE 50 BTHEHS STAB .

Subsequently , they have taken considerable pains , both iu the public press and before the Com-Hr . ttcc on the bill lor Winding-up the . Affairs of the
It is not my intention to offer any remarks on their statements ; your readers , and the Land members - well know how tbe bank became established , aud why It was necessary to separate it from tbe kind Company , and they will draw their own conclusions , and no douht justly estimate the honour aii-i integrity of the Directors . ., llaI what wii ] your readers say , when they learn ! ?

Arnott , Grassby , Jones , and Milne . Messrs . Harney and Reynolds being in the country were absent , Messrs . Hof yoake , ( compelled to attend other committees , ) Hunt , ( from indisposition , ) and O'Connor , were also absent . The correspondence received during the past week was very satisfactory .
The discussion on the necessity of inviting the Trade to concentrate their energies for the purpose of obtaining their political and social ri ghts adjourned from the last meeting was then resumed , and it was resolved that the concluding paragraph from "The address of the Executive Committee to the Trades of the United Kingdom , " issued in March last , be . reprinted as follows ;—" TVe now invite you to join in the task of regenerating and emancipating industry . Detail your grievances—propound your remedies . Chartist organisation will give weight to your demands . From every part of the country
the cry for your ri g hts shall roll upwards to the government . All your several trades have their several grievances—now , they go sing l y before the Legislature , from isolated bodiesand , therefore , are disregarded . We will make of each a National ^ Demand , and back it by a national agitation . The comp laint of the weaver , or the shoemaker , shall not he his alone—hut it shall he the complaint of the Chartist bod y throug hout the empire , pervading all Trade * and all localities . To the work , then , men of the Trades . ' Unite . ' unite ! unite ! The Conventions of the peop le must he the Parliament of Labour ! The Executive

Arnott , and Grassby the following resolution was unanimously adopted : — " That the Executive Committee put themselves into communication with the several Trades in order to obtain an embodiment of their grievances and their demands , and that a series of public meetings be held , to . which the trades he speciall y invited , each meeting to consider the wrongs of the Trade addressed , and the requisite reform demanded by their bod y ; and that the Chartist councils throughout the country he requested to adopt the same course . "
( In accordance with the above the General Secretary is solicitous of receiving communitions from the several trades , at the same time assuring them that such communications shall meet with prompt attention . ) The Secretary was instructed to state , in reply to several friends , that the publication of the Monthl y Circular was postponed until the first of August , in order that the Committee may a scertain the amount of support that will he afforded to them in the publication thereof . Agents , sub-secretaries , and other friends are therefore solicited to use their utmost energ ies relative thereto , aud communicate with the General Secretary .
The Committee then adjourned to Wednes day evening , July lGth . Si gned on behalf of the Committee , John Aknott , General Secretary .
Newcastle-Ipon-Tyse. —A Public Meeting W...
Newcastle-ipon-Tyse . —A public meeting was held on the Quay , on Sunday morning , which was addressed by Mr . Vfatson , who alluded to the Copyhold meeting held in London , and the active steps taken by the Chartist leaders in regard to dcfaciug the monument erected to the memory of Sharp and Williams . He made a strong appeal to the people to join the Democratic Reading Room and Charter Association ; after which a number came forward and joined the good cause . —A very interesting discussion has been going on for the last fortnight , which was brought to a close on Sunday evening—sebject : " The Relative Merits of the O'Connor Land Plan and the Leeds Redemption Society . " Mr . M'Leod in the chair . The speakers
who defended the Land Plan as a more speedy and effective system to accomplish the political emancipation Of the people were—Messrs . Murray , Charlton , Brown , Cockbum , and Kain ; and the speakers who defended the Leeds Society were—Messrs . Wcodrow ( agent for the society ) , "W atson , Gunn , and Ritcheson . As far as argument went , the telling speeches of Messrs . Cockbuvn , Charlton , Kain , « tc , had a powerful effect on the meeting . IS Mr . O'Connor had been present , we feel confident he would hivo been deli g hted with the arguments brought forward by some of the speakers on the Land Question . As far as argument and eloquence went , the advocates of the Land Question won the day . —Asgcs M'Leod , Corresponding Secretary .
Finsbuky . —The weekly meeting of the Finsbury Democratic Association was held last Sunday night in their room , 21 , Vine-street , North end of llattongarden . Mr . Cater in the chair . After the usual routine of business was disposed of , tbe chairman introduced Mr . William Worseldine . The lecturer was greeted with marks Of high admiration , and his lecture , on the '* Life and Genius of Longinus , " was listened to with profound attention . He said that it was impossible to read and contemplate the " Treatise on the Sublime" without experiencing the glowin » s of enthusiasm , and , at the same time , deriving some useful hints for the cultivation of rhetoric , by guarding writers from oddness of style on the one hand , and inflated metaphors on the
other . But it might he objected—why study precision of language , rotundity of periods , and all the rules with which rhetoric was replete ? Follow nature , and discard art . Xow , be mi g ht meet that objection by speaking of the moral excellencies of rhetoric , and its identity witb civilisation ; and he might tell how that , witb her sister poetry , gbe eradicated and charmed the republic of letters ; but he would answer the objection in the words of the Roman orator : — " Eloquence was not tbe ofFspri »« oi art , but avt of eloquence . '' The lecturer said thai it was a fault to estimate an author ' s genius bv the voluminous works he might have produced , " as some of the suns in the intellectual firmament would thereby become eclipsed ! The
proper course was to estimate every work of the mind by its real worth , and that alone . That was the standard hv which the work of Longinus was tested , and stamped with its true and lasting value . In concluding that series of lectures—although be had been a gratuitous lecturerfor twenty years , and was still struggling with adversity , he bad to return his grateful thanks to the public for the kind manner in which they bad received him ; so that , whilst he had been gratified , numerous proofs bad been afforded that his labours bad not been devoid of good . Mr . Worseldine had , two hours before , lectured at the Finsbury Scientific Institution , on 'The Life , Genius , and Philosophy of Aristotle . "—The lecturer courteously received an unanimous vote of
thanks for the services he has so frequentlv rendered to this rising association ; and the chairman announced th = it Mr . Haggis , of the Propaganda Society , would lecture on the following Sunday evening—subject : "Past and Present . " FissBUBY . —The members met on Sunday evening last at the Finsbury Literary and Scientific Institution , Leicester-place , Ray-street , Clerkenwall . Mr . Weeden in the chair . The usual business having been transacted , on the motion of Messrs . Wlnmill and Batchelor , it was resolved : — " That a meeting he convened in the above hall , on Tuesday evening next , for the purpose of adopting a petitiou to parliament , praying for a searching
investigation into the unjust and cruel treatment of Mr . Gurney during his incarceration in Tothill Fields ' Prison , and that all the political victims of 1 S 4 S be invited to attend . " On the motion of Messrs . Osborn and Xewsome , it was resolved : — " That a Convention of the Democrats of all parties be convened m the Hall of the Finsbury Institution , Leicester-place , Ray-street , Clerkeinyell , to consider the present state of the cause of Democracy , and the best means of furthering the same ; no person to take part in the debates except members of some Democratic or Reform body . Such meeting is , therefore , convened for the first Sundav la August , at three o ' clock in the afternoon . ' The public are respectfully invited to at-

tend . " It was also resolved , on the motion of Messrs . Osborn and Batchelor : — " That the members of this locality recommend the Executive to reorganise the delegate council , believing it would be productive of much good to the Chartist cause . The meeting then adjourned till Tuesday evening . The members again assembled in the Hall of the above Institution on Tuesday evening . Mr . Winmill , who was called to the chair , briefly stated that the object of the present meeting was to consider tbe right of open air meetings ; he observed , that it was an important subject ; the right of and
public meeting had long been acknowledged , it was necessary they should assert and maintain it . Several persons addressed the meeting , after which it was adjourned till Sunday evening next , at eight o clock ; when it was announced that Mr . Winmill would deliver a lecture on the physiology of the earth ; on which occasion the interesting experiment of the ociltating pendulum would be exhibited , proving the diurnal rotation of the earth . Maschesteb . —On Sunday evening Mr . Thomas Dickenson lectured to a numerous audience on the above address in the People ' s Institute . A vote of thanks was unanimously passed to the lecturer .
Mr. Ernest Joses- To His Friends. Some K...
MR . ERNEST JOSES- TO HIS FRIENDS . Some kind friends are , I learn , interesting themselves to ameliorate my circumstances , by means of a subscription on my behalf . I am not ashamed to own that I am poor—very poor ; for when was a soldier of democracy otherwise ? And I recognise in this kindness of my friends another instance of that fraternal spirit that should animate all who struggle for truth and right . But I beg most respectfully and gratefully , yet , at the same time , most decidedly , to DECLINE TUB ASSISTANCE PBOFFBBED ,
My dear friends , believe me , it is not pride as to myself—but pride as to the great cause of Chartism , that induces me to decline that mark of kindness . There are but too many in the ranks of the aristocracy and middle class , who are ready to throw the insult of "demagoguism /' and "Jiving on the movement , " in the face of the advocates . They know that persecution makes and keeps us poor—then they abuse us for tbe poverty they themselves have caused ; and even taunt with sordid motives those who might be rich , if they were
not honest . I , at least , will give thorn no handle . I feel convinced that nothing is more injurious to our cause in the eyes of the world , than that its advocates should be pensioned on its charity . I seek to WORK , not to pauperise ; and , therefore , it shall never be said that I lived on the subscriptions of the people . The noble generosity of the Chartists of Halifax honoured alike the donors and recipients ; but , now that I am at large , I cannot consent to receive that for which I am not performing actual labour .
In the publication of my Notes to the People I am performing a work in which lam hopeful of rendering some assistance to the democratic cause . Your support to that can be consistently given and honourably received ; but , even here , I would wish no one to subscribe or read , who does not think that he receives the value for his time and money . I trust my friends will not misinterpret these lines—they come from a full heart—they arc written in a thankful spirit , but with a firm will to battle on as I have battled , with that independence which is a shield against all calumny .

An Appeal To The Electors 0.' " The Tjsi...
AN APPEAL TO THE ELECTORS 0 . ' " THE TJSITED KINGDOM ON BE HALF OF FIVE MILLIONS OF THE UNENFRANCHISED . Bt Thomas Dickinson . The following address was adopted by a Meeting of Friends , at the People ' s Institute , Manchester , June 29 th , 1851 : — "In addressing you on the * present occasion , we are neither influenced by passion , springing from the excitement of political agitation , nor urged by commercial depression and pinching want , but from a clear and deep conviction of the injury done to us by the laws of our country , in shutting us out from all participation in the privileges of citizenship and the rig hts of freemen . From these motives we appeal to you , and kindly solicit your consideration of what we may advance .
" It is a common proverb that tbe will of tbe majoritv should rule the minority , the practice of which has antiquity for its authority , and justice and reason for its supports . It is tho common and daily practice of men of all conditions , in their private and public relations , and is the final and conclusive appeal to which all differences are referred . Whether in the private club , the civic council , or the august assembly of legislative wisdom , it is used as the fairest method of human decision . All we ask of you , then , is , that you carry out this just
principle in the national franchise , and open the door of exclusion to your humble brethren , who , with all their poverty , are still men , like yourselves . " Electors!—The law of the , land bases British freedom upon the insecure and absurd foundation of property—which may either be acquired or lost without its possessor being one wit more worthy or wise . Property has no virtue that makes its owner move than a man , uor has poverty awy influence in making him less . Bricks are not the creators ot brains , nor can mortar produce mind ; and Tot the unjust property law declares in its practice the
reverse . " Of tbe six millions of mature men in our kingdom , only some eight hundred thousand can boast of being freemen ; and when we deduct the effect wealth and power has in overawing and curbing human volition , together with the open and notorious bribery and intimidation so prevalent at nearly every election , you will find the real number of voters to ' grow finer by degrees and beautifully less , ' until British freedom becomes a shadow and a name , but not a substance . Brethren , we outnumber you more than seven fold ; we are the nation ' s drudges , tbe creators of its wealth , and the untiring and active agents of its fame and prosperity : we till its soil , we embellish its cities , we rear
its palaces ; our industry is spread over our island , and finds its way to the farthest comers Of tho earth . If a foreign foe should menace ourlaud and make a breach on our shore , we throw our bodies in the gap , and resolve to die sooner than our country shall be enslaved beneath the yoke of a stranger . All this we do , and in return for our exertion , disinterestedness , and patriotism , the British constitution degrades us with the titles of ' non-electors ' and ' unenfranchised' common people . " Electors , —Are we not possessed of instinct and feelings like yourselves ? Are we not members of the same human family , and children of the same universal father , whose sun shines upon all alike ? Whv should we thus be dealt with , and what great
crime have wc committed that we should suffer such heavy penalty ? Have you a claim to your country ' s protection , and a reason to give for the rights you hold , that we cannot bring with stronger force ? Is it not a serious crime to deprive five millions of your brethren of those rights which you hold so dear , and which they are equally entitled to ? Away with such cruel law , for reason and justice cry aloud that it ought never to disgrace the statutes of any nation , savage or civilised . We appeal to you , knowing that if you have the will you possess the power to consign such a law to ' the tomb of all the Cnpulets . ' If you complain of heavy taxation , of governmental profligacy , of misrepresentation and a corrupt senate , of bad laws and partial administration—all these thines we feel keener than you , hut who is to blame ? We , who are as aliens in our
own country and strangers in the land of our birth , without power , without protection , and without name in our country ' s annals ? Is it with u s the blame rests « . if so , dash down the barriers that pride and folly have erected , and we will soon rid ourselves of the foul imputation . But , alas ! cool } ud « ment and calm reflection will tell you , that you alone are to blame for tbe evils you comp lain , ot , and that had you done your duty at the polling booth , you would have had a wiser and more virtuous senate . The taxes are imposed , and the laws made by your own delegates-t he men of your own choice ; if you have been deceived and abused , you may shortly have the power to rectify your affairs in tbe opportunity of a tresu election , when you can send them to parliament who will represent your wishes and the national weal , instead of being the puppets of a party or tnc tools of a faction . You have the power to cause
tbe laws of our land to acknowledge us as men , you can break the chain that binds us to swvery and degradation , and we ask you as honourable and just men to do so . We are no humiliated suppliants begging oharitv without a claim , or asking a boon without a virtue . It is not with bated' breatn or bended knee we present ourselves ; but boldly , openly , and respectfully , as men addressing their peers , conscious of the justice of their demands and the righteousness of the cause they are engaged in . Having full faith in the Omnipotence of justice and truth , full faith in the spread of knowledge and the [ healing effects of general enlightenment , and , move

"In conclusion , brother elector ^ wo heartily join with you in your wish to curtaif the national expenditure and li ghten the burden o ? taxation ; we see no rationality in granting salaries and pensions to those who have done nothing to deserve them . We hold it a serious joke to make the nation maintain masters of hawks and hounds that have no existence , or to maintain our ambassadors at foreign courts in the splendour of eastern princes . We are averse to war and the shedding of human blood , and hold it criminal for men to either lend or borrow money to promote that which is nothing less than wholesale murder . We should like honestly to rid ourselves of the gory war debt , the interest of which robs us yearly of thirty million pounds , the produce of hard toil . " We think standing armies or warlike fleets a stain upon our civilisation , inimical either to the
safety or prosperity of a nation laying claim to enlightenment , and infidel to the benign doctrines of Christianity , whose motto is salvation , and not destruction . We look upon the seventeen millions per annum we pay for our army and navy as the darkest item in our national account , pointing with index finger to pages in human history that we would fain hide from our view . Wc are favourable to free and unfettered trade , and in a fair and equal competition we dare depend on our own resources without appealing to cowardly and pitifulj ^ rotectton . We are favourable to the spread of national education and an untaxed press ; and we would rather build a college or a school-house , than rear a barrack or a gaol . '' Brother electors , we appeal to you now when the political horizon is calm and tranquil ,- we are averse to national agitation and the fermentation of party strife , for we feel deep and speak earnest , and are always the greatest sufferers by any thing that
impairs the energy of trade , or obstructs tho operations of commerce . We earnestly call upon you to do us justice and yourselves honour , by obtaining for five millions of your fellow-countrymen that franchise without which they are the veriest slaves , " Many good and wise men , both iu and out of parliament , are now stirring in our behalf : tho First Minister of the Crown has declared his intention to make the suffrage a Cabinet measure in the next parliamentary session . Come you then to our aid , and do for us what we have done in times ' past for you in your hour of need , —lend us your influence and co-operation , and our bravo old land shall indeed be the birth-place of Liberty and tho land of Freedom . " Yours respectfully , " On behalf of Five Millions of much wronged British Subjects , " Thomas Dickinson . " " 30 , Wood-street , Dolefield , Manchester . "

The principle on which the association acts is an equal division of profit . The associative principle is extending itself rapidly . Several conferences have been held ; and , as 'Mr .

the principle will be ultimately nationalised .

EIGHTH ANNIVERSARY OF THE TJXITED PATRIOTS' AND PATRIARCHS" BENEFIT SOCIETY , IN CONNEXION WITH THE BRI' TIStt EMPIRE FREEHOLD LAND AND BUILDING SOCIETY .
On Tuesday , July Stli , a numerous party of members and friends of this flourishing institution siit down to an excellent dinner at Highbury Barn lavern . An excellent band gave an air of cheerfulness to the scene and many well-dressed females added an additional charm . About four o ' clock Mr . John Smith was called to the chair , and proposed tho following toast : — " The United Patriots' Benefit Society , and the British Empire Land and Building Society-Long may they flourish . " They had met to celebrate the eighth anniversary of the society . He could State that / it was ma most flourishing condition ; and the
amalgamation of it with the Building Society had ' been productive of the best results . They wero . all aware ot the . good resulting from such societius —they made homes happy , by assuring the wives and families from distress , and giving them ' a ' ' certainty that they would be protected from the horrors of a Union workhouse . The speaker complimented Prince Albeit upon the example he had set to all classes of his subjects by becoming patron to such societies . and trusted that he would look equally totvades , and similar institutions . He concU ^ cd by" expressing -a hopo't hat each succeeding " ' ' year they would increase in numbers and prosperity . The toait was drank with three times three .
The Ci / AMMA . Y then cave " The Health of the general secretary , D . W . Huffy , and the Agents of the Societies , " in a speech highly eulogistic of his abilities and character , and pointed to the flourishing state of the societies as sufficient proof of his being worthy of their respect and gratitude . He was a man who devoted all his abilities to tho service of his fellow men , and that was tho noblest character a man could receive . The members were so aware of this that they were anxious to express it by more than mere words ; and he now on their behalf , presented to him that piece of plate , to bo kept by him as a token of their esteem , that when ho looked
upon it , he might persevere in tho good conduct that had hitherto so distinguished him ; and that it might be a memento for him to hand down to posterity , to cause others to follow in the same course . The chairman then presented D . \ V . Huffy y ? kh a massive silver cup , worth about £ 50 , bearing the following inscription : — " Presented , on Tuesday , the Sth of July , by the members of the United Patriots' Benefit Society , to Daniel William Rutty , its founder and secretary , as a testimonial of their esteem for the intelligence , zeal , and integrity , displayed by him in his arduous task of bringing tho society to its present flourishing condition . " On our founder we depend ,
He has proved a faithful friend . " The cup was then filled with port , and each of tho guests partook thereof , drinking to the health of the Secretary . The Chairman then sung a song appropriate to the occasion , which was rapturously applauded . Mr . D , W . Ruffx responded to the toast . It afforded him much pleasure to again meet them He was a steward , anil as such came to render an account of his stewardship . They had had many difficulties 'to contend with , but by good conduct and courage they had overcome them . Many had predicted that the societies would soon become extinct , but they were still young and in full vigour , and each succeeding year added to their nourishing condition , until they were an example to all other benefit societies , lie did not say that these societies would remedy all the evils they endured , or a
tithe of them , but they did remedy many . lie could not agree in all that their Chairman said relative to Prince Albert , but he knew he spoke with honesty according to his opinions . Ho did not think that patronage was a benefit to societies of working men . The working of their own society had shown a contrary result ; yet if a man was anxious to do good ho was willing to give him credit for his intentions . The speaker then adverted to the prospects of the society , and its income , expenditure , and benefits , and also that of the Building Society . Since the commencement of the society they had expended for—Sickness £ 7 , 853 10 3 $ Superannuation 59 2 2 Funerals 1 , 818 8 1 Fire .. 61 G o $ Accouchments 2 . M 7 0 0
Total Expenditure ... £ 11 , 030 13 0 Total receipts from the above funds 15 , 094 10 4 * Expenditure 11 , 939 13 0 Capital in band .,. £ 3 , 154 17 4 i It also appeared that the receipts of the Building Society were £ 2 , 265 lis . ll * d . in addition to the above . The number of members was 2 , 247 , ' and their average age thirty-five . Since they had last met they had found out a move secure and profitable way of investing their funds than in the hands of the government , viz ., by placing them in the hands of their Building Society . True , all could not become possessors of houses or land , but many could , and the funds of all were benefited thereby , The speaker then dwelt upon the advantage of their now regulation relative to the superannuation of the old members , and stated the progress they were
making towards the erection of an asylum , and pressed upon them to join the Widow and Orphan ' s Funds . He concluded by calling upon them to set an example to their fellow-men , by depending upon their own exertions . Working men could achieve any result provided they banded themselves together . He felt most deeply their kindness in presenting him such a valuable testimonial ; he should never look upon it without feelings of respect and gratitude , ( During tho whole of a long address the speaker was much applauded . ) The following appropriate song , the composition of Mrs . Allbon , was snug by the husband of that lady : —
There is not in Old England , our own beloved land , A more hearty , benevolent , lloarisliing band , Any better cnnducte . 1—with a . nobler end—Than the ' United Patriots , ' tbe -working man's friend . It prepares for the periods of tvouble awl gvief ; And supports us in sickness , by bringing relief ; For old age it provideth , come woe , or come weal—Thus guarding its members from the ' poor lair bastile . ' Oh ! there ' s one glorious truth , witb a bi % ht lustre glows ; 'lis our own h -nest labour , whence all this good flows ; And no freezing charity shall make our heart moan , Far with proud independence we boast it our own . Then , a health to the * Patriots , ' united and true ; Our watchword is' Union , ' tvhate ' er may ensue , We'll adhere to « ur motto , and proclaim unto all—• That' united we stand , * but ' divided WC fall . ' Mr . Gardner , vice-Chairman , in an excellent and humourous speech , gave an account of the raising of the testimonial .
The Chairman then gave the health of George Bird , Esq ., and all the medical attendants of the society , which was drank With the usual honours . Dr . Bird responded ou behalf of himself and brethren , and dwelt with great power upon the good effects of benefit societies in general . Several excellent songs were sung by ladies con . nected with the society . The Chairman then gave as a toast , " The health of the Ladies and Visitors . " Mr . D . W . Rceey proposed the health of the Chairman , which was drank with all honours . Mr . Smith responded .
Mr . D . W . Ruffv gave the toast of " Tho Press , " and alluded in favourable terms to the Northern Star ; to that paper the society owed a deep debt of gratitude , and however they might have differed in some respects from them , t ' ticy ought never to forget tho obligations of the past . Mr . Ellnou responded to " tho toast , and spoko highly in favour of the benefits of the Press to the people , and alluded to the speeches of two of our Judges , who stated that the liberty of the Press was next to the liberty of trial by jury . The toast was drank with enthusiasm , and the business part of the proceedings concluded .
At nine o ' clock dancing commenced , and was continued with great spirit until an early hour in the morning .

Murder-Near-Holkham , In Norfolk. •Scarc...
MURDER-NEAR-HOLKHAM , IN NORFOLK . Scarcel y has the excitement consequent upon tho ^ recent discovery of buinan ,, reniains in the neighbourhood of Norwich S ^ ajfef d ^ rw hen . ( ie news of a cold-blooded murder , perpetrated at mro-day , neap tho princely seat of the Earl ot Leicester , has spread consternation throughout the county . The murdered man , named John Ayton , was em » ployed by the Earl of Leicester as sup _ erintendent of his lordship ' s extensive brick and tile works at Burnham Ovory , a distance of about a uiiie and % half from Uolkhnm Hall . It , was Ayton ' s usual , custom every alternate Friday io go , w ' ith a donkey and cart , to the hall , between eleven and twelve o ' clock in the morning , in order to receive money with which to pay the workpiiojjle and other charges . rioUshaui Park is very expensive , boin « fourteen miles in circumference ^ and the hall is in ' thecentre of the park . On Icavinir tie hall Ayton had always to proceed in a direct line through " the park gate
to the brickworks , passing a plantation which encloses a sand pit at a short distance from tho road side , and about a quartfl * of a mile from the park gate . Lately , a man named George Groom , residing ab Wells , which is about two miles from Ilolkham Hall , was employed at the brickworks ; but having boon discharged , h is supposed that he entertained a revengeful feeling towards Ayton , though he was still employed as a farm labourer on f . ho Ilolkham estate . Groom was well aware of Ay ton ' s custom , of going to the hall ev-. ry alternate ' Friday to receive money , and also the direction and tiino of his returning to the works . Ayton went as usual to the hall on Friday last , and between twelve and ono o ' clock ho received from Mr . Shellabo . tr , the chief clerk to Mr . K ^ ary . tho Earl of Lei-jester ' s steward , the sum of £ 2 o 5 s . 0 d ., consisting of sovereigns , half-sovereigns , some silver , and a £ 5 note- of tho bank of Messrs . Gurnev . After receiving the
money he proceeded along his usual route to the brickworks , but did not arrive thereat the usual time . Soon afterwards a iad named Savory , who was visiting in the neighbourhood , ww ^ S who had occasion to pass through the sand pit before referred to , to the farm of Mr . Doggett , his uncle saw , us he supposed , a matf asleep in the pit , and he incidentally stated this to four men in . his uucle ' s employ , who were working in an adjoining field . These men then remembered ' tint they had , between half-past one and a quarter to two o ' clock , as near as they could judge , heard the report of fire-arms , and made some remarks to each other at tho time upon the subject , but had thought nothing of it , The men requested the lad to go back to the sand-pit , and ascertain whether the man really was asleep or not ,
but the lad , it appears , did not uo so , and on their leaving work at live o ' clock , one of them saw Ayton ' s donkey and cart in the road , without a driver . Thinking this circumstance very strange , and remembering what the lad had said , he went into the sand-pit , and there discovered Ayton , lying on his side quite dead , and a small spot or two of blood on the sand . There was a wound ou the lower part of the back of the head . Dr . Young , of Wells , who afterwards examined the body , found that there was , at this wound , a perforation , into which he could introduce his finger . On taking off the skull-cap he found there was ' a bullet embedded in the brain ; that it had entered above the occipital bone , passed through the brain , struck thescui , bono , and recoiled into tho central lobeof thchraini causing instantaneous death . Several shots of No . ¦ i size were also found in the brain .
1 ho man who first discovered that Avton was dead immediatel y hurriml to Hoifcham Hall , and informed Mr . Kenry of the circumstance , and that gentleman lost no time in proceeding to the spot . Having seen tho body , he sent the news to the police at Burnham and Wells , and took down the names of all the persons he COllM meet with who were likel y to bo able to give any information . As soon as the intelligence readied the police , they mustered at Ilolkham Now Inn : and upon making inquiries they learned that Groom J ad been seen near the sand-pit by Dr . Young , who was passing iu his carnage , ivml by some labouring men , very hear the lime that tho murder had been committed . Police-constable Goonre Lamblev havina :
information of these particulars , wont at eight o ' clock in the evening to the house of tho prisoner , and found him at tea . lie appeared greatly confused when the officer entered , but r . o words passed , except a request by Lambley , with which the prisoner complied , that he should accompany him to his house . On arriving there , the officer told him the charge on which he was apprehended , but Groom denied all knowledge of the matter , and declared that he had not seen Dr . Young thtit day . During tho evening the police searched the prisoner ' s bouse , and found a largo pistol which had been recently discharged , together with a quantity of shots and powder . " Thcy also found a box se " - croted under the bed containing fifteen sovereigns
and twelve half-sovereigns . The half-sovereigns were wrapped in a piece of paper , which turned out to be a motuovarnlum in A yton ' s writing in reference to some payments made by him during the previous fortnight . On searching the prisoner ' s person a £ 5 note of Messrs . Gurnoy ' s bank and Ayton ' s watch were found in his possession . When he was asked where he obtained the note , ho said that ho had found it about a fortnight previously . The clerk at the hall believes it to be the one that ho paid to Ayton on tho same morning . The prisoner lived with his father-in-law , who keeps a garden and who used the pistol which was found for tho purpose of searing-birds . Tbe fatherin-law so used it on Friday morning early , r . ud then replaced it in its usual position . After Groom had gone out the father-in-law missed the pistol from its place , and searched for it all over the premises ; soon after Groom returned , however .
the father-in-law again saw the pistol in its proper place , On the evening of his apprehension , the prisoner was taken before the Reverend R . Collyer , examined , and remanded to Walsingham prison , and on Saturday the evidence of twelve witnesses , who proved the details above narrated , was given before ll . E . Rlythe , Eeq „ the Reverend R . Collyer , and the Reverend Mr . Methwold , at Walsingham . The inquiry lasted the whole day , and the " result was that not the slightest doubt remained of the prisoner ' s guilfc . An inquest was also opened at Burnham Overy on Saturday , before R . Dench , Esq ., but great delay and confusion were caused by the magistrates' examination being held at Walsington at the same time , and the necessary witnesses could not all be obtained . The magistrates ' inquiry stands at preaent adjourned for Dr . Young ' a evidence ; when that has been given the prisoner will be fully committed for trial .
