London. Mr. Preston's Plan.—Curiosity, O...
LONDON . Mr . Preston ' s Plan . —Curiosity , on Monday night , tempted me to attend a public meeting held at the Peacock , Houghton-street , Clare-market , to hear detailed a plan of the veteran Preston for tho salvation of the working classes . I found , on entering the room , the old man on his legs , labouring away to explain his plan to his audience , some of whom I am sorrv to say did not pay that attention which any subject of such a nature deserves . The old man ' s assertions were hold , hut not new ; they were hut a small part ofthe grander scheme of Paine , in his Agrarian Justice , to which was attached some little of an old plan of the author ' s—the Spencean . The plan seemed to be as follows : —First , present a memorial to the Queen , or House of Lords—it did not annear
quite plain which—to pass a law to compel each workman , when in employment , to pay 3 d . per week , to form a fund whereby each old person may be superannuated at £ 20 per year , and thus taken out of the labour market . Second , the probate duty to be repealed , and a new duty of 2 § per cent , imposed on all demised property above £ 50-the produce to be appropriated for the relief of the sick , widows , and orphans . Third , each holder of land at his death to give , for public purposes , one acre for every forty he may possess ; his heir at his demise to do the same ' and so ad infinitum . The revenue of the land thus acquired , to pay the expenses of Government . To carry these plans , he proposed a very large council—I believe he said seventy . —How this Septuagint Council were to proceed to accomplish any one of

these objects , the author did not even hint . He sat down , requesting that any one who desired would ask him questions : Several speakers followed , but , instead of confining themselves to the subject , they wandered oyer the whole host of grievances under which we labour . One very fierce Scotchman made a serious charge against the Chartists , stating that the national petition talked of " bloody strife ;" whilst another said , that he had made one of a delegated . body of Chartists , representing all the societies in London—the time not definitely , stated—who attended , and who were concocting some scheme that was to end in blood , unless the Charter was made into law . As we knowone to be a fib , it is very likely the Other is one likewise . I deny that cany delegated body of Chartists , at any , i UJ ~ . i _ 11 ... .... llm .. J . 'J «« + A » An' liinf TTn ant
time , did ever carry a resolution to resort to force to carry the Charter . That such a proposition may have been somewhere made , is not improbable , as there are always fools and knaves in every society ; but that the greatbody of Chartists ever contemplated such folly as to fight against the authorities , is an idea only held hy men whose heads are no larger than pipkins . After a very noisy discussion , a subscription was entered into to pay the expense of the room , and the meeting adjourned to that day fortnight . Tho p lan is quite impracticable . At the first step it will be upset . Only fancy the Queen , or House of Lords , recommending such a measure ! Working men , if they wish to obtain their rights , must neither look to great nor small , but depend on themselves . They have depended first on one party , then on another ; now
on this man , again on that ; and so on—still being diddled each time . They deserve to be so . Why not do their own business ? Can they expect another to do their work for them ? Let each look to himself . Let each meet his brother in oppression coolly and calmly to discuss the grievances under which all labour . The first object for the operative to obtain is political power . This is the only lever that will lift him to independence . Ail schemes that do not begin with this will prove a waste of time and of energy . All who -would not admit the labourer to political equality may be philanthropists , but they are no . true friends to man . Hear all plans—listen cavefully to that which may propose anything to benefit our condition—but depend on none . The workers ' emancipation from tyranny must be the work of themselves . —Correspondent .

O'Connor , when he pays us a visit , was brought before the meeting and agreed to . We trust that he will come before long , as we can assure him he has been looked for very anxiously by the Cumbrians , and we think we may add we can ensure hba a " hearty welcome " when he does come .
LEICESTER . Public Discussion . —A meeting of the Hampden locality was held as usual , in Mr . Gates' room , on Sunday last . It was well attended . An animated discussion took place on . Socialism versus Chartism . It was ably engaged in hy Messrs . Cox and Stevenson . The committee have agreed on the discussion ofthe following subject : — "Whether monies subscribed by the Chartist body cannot be more usefully appropriated than hitherto ? " Mr . William Fallow will open the discussion . It is particularly requested that every member will attend on this occasion , as business of importance will be transacted at the close ofthe discussion .
NORTHAMPTON . Couxir Delegate Meeting . —A county delegate meeting was held at Northampton on Tuesday last ; Mr . George Watson in the chair . Mr . Gammage was chosen secretary . After considerable discussion , the following plan and address wereproposed by Mr . John Parish , seconded by Mr . John Men-ill , and . earned unanimously : —
ELECTION FUND . Address of the Northampton County Delegates , met at Northampton , on Sunday , January 12 th , 1815 , to the Chartists of Great Britain . Brother Democrats , —Impelled by an earnest desire to see the success of the great principles of democracy , as laid down in the people ' s Charter , we venture to address you on a subject of vast and growing importance to the whole country ; but which has been but too little noticed by those whose interest it is our duty to promote . Tho importance of the Chartists gaining electoral power is not to be denied ; and the using of that power to the greatest possible advantage will be admitted by all who wish to behold their country ' s emancipation . It will not be denied that there never existed greater necessity for action
than now . For years have wo boon talking about the Charter , while we have never thought of the means for its accomplishment . Let us now begin to work in earnest , or Chartism will soon be no more than a name . For this purpose we would call your attention to the necessity of being prepared with Chartist candidates at the next gcneralelection , which , before twelve months have passed over our heads , will probably occur . The Whigs , from their baseness , have for ever lost public confidence as a party ; and the Peel Government is also becoming every day weaker . Dissension is to be seen in the enemy ' s camp ; why , then , do not the people unite for their common cause ? The Chartists of this county set you the example ; may it be speedily imitated by the
whole country ! Every county should immediately have its election committee , who should be actively engaged in forwarding the good work . If but a few Chartist members could be got into tho House of Commons , they would strike the factions with dismay . Well organised , they would form such a barrier in the way of class legislation , as woidd be impossible for Whi gs and Tories to surmount . The business of the corrupt House of Commons might lie so obstructed" as to compel whatever Government should be in authority to concede the people ' s righteous claims . To help to such result , we beg to submit the following plan for your consideration , which we have adopted , and which we believe will apply to nearly all Chartist districts .
^ PLAN FOR RAISING AN ELECTION FUSD . # 1 . To call public meetings in the several localities m the county , for the purpose of testing the public on the propriety and expediency of raising a fund for election purposes . 2 . That at the public meetings a resolution be brought before the people as a pledge ofthe intended policy , which shall he to bring forward a candidate at the next general election , pledged to the people ' s C-harter . 3 . That the public meetings shall each appoint an election committee for the purpose of carrying out the object of the said meetings , whose business it shall be to canvass Hie locality in which thev reside lor subscriptions to the election fund , and ' that a cashier and five trustees he appointed bv the several localities , to whom all monies shall be paid collected by the committees .
4 . That for the purpose of making the fund as extensive as possible , each town where it is necessary shall be divided into districts , and all the inhabitants waited upon for the purpose of soliciting them to become subscribers . 5 . That the fund be open for the purpose of re cciving subscriptions for the space of twelve month " iromthc commencement , and every individual wh

That should the general election occur beta a sufficient fund be raised to defray the cxnJ , - attendant on taking a candidate to the poll ^ ' committee in each locality shall have now ' borrow any amount necessary for that purpose . ? same to be " afterwards paid by the subscriptions of ft members . !
9 . That the electoral association in each locak shall hold a meeting once in every month , whent }' committee shall warn each member to attend . * 10 . That the committee in each locality shall m ^ once in every fortnight , for the purpose of discuss ^ the affairs ofthe association , and for carrying out at p lans which they shall consider necessary to promo its interests , providing such plans be in accordacj with the avowed principles oftlio association . . 1
11 . That on the bringing forward of a Charig- ' . ' candidate by the central committee , such camVidajv shall lie submitted to the choice of the members tj ? the association in each locality , and if approved of £ •? the majority , he shall be proposed on the day p nomination , and ho taken to the poll . f , 12 . That should any monies be required previous ( . 1 the election to further the object of the associafio | the cashier , together with the trustees , shall ] lav . J power to draw the necessary amount from the hujM subject however to the consent of the committee jj | each locality . M
13 . That in no instance shall bribery or trcatiVjj carried on , for the purpose of securing the vote of % elector ; but the committee shall keep a strict watc on the friends ofthe various candidates , in order t )] 3 ' if found guilty of such corrupt practices , the case ins bo . brought before the House of Commons , and ^ member returned by such means be disqualified \ , sit .
