In both respects Mr . Mather ' ; , k * be held blameless . ' Lord' MalmesIWRY asserts ^ : i' full and frank apology had been offered to Mr . i ^ jker by the officer who " had insulted him . Mr . iVHLR , h o we v er , had not thoug ht fit to accept this - ¦ ¦ . Vjjv . To speak of Mr .

      -jeir lordshi ps ' on the calm and temperate tone in viieh they were discussing the subject * But the tft'l- ' -sv' which it is affirmed the Austrian was ready Jwi'icr , would have beea in reality a second insult , , ? v ; to an unprovoked and brutal injury , for what . Vfftitf Earl of J ) Enr , Y— 'There was a distinct ^• Irati' - n made on the part of the office r v > . ; , commuted the outrage that i f Mr .

      : ^ fL' The British Prime Minister maintains that 2 . vxa s fiair , from first to last , there has been no : s : ion of national insult or national indignity , and in ii : e catting down of an unarmed Eng lishman is : : * . (' be put in the same category as the ' pulling ; c « i < -f the consular flag , ' which , had that occurred , i ?' Karl' of Derby might have looked upon as ; r * v « ii ! inn sufficient t « justify the holding o < the r ; :-tni ] tloyingthc guilty party responsible for the -6 r . ; il insult With all deference to the chief of

      if I-. ritish Government , and with all respect for the vJk-ui ' bit of bunting , ' I must protest that I r . tiicr ' the pulling down of the consular flag ' idaLarc been a trivial offrnce compared with the isHsin-Hbe attempt to take the life of an nnzrd Englishman . The pretence that the injury C'ac-iaMr . Mather was a personal , not a national £ iir , is easily shattered . That the rutnan who riwk , and the ruffian who attempted to slay , both her that they were assailing an Englishman ( in kk of Derby and Malmesbcf . t ' s assertion to the

      rvutrary ) is proved by-their own declaration ( true :: idlse ) that thck ^ ijs 4 « . on b e in g st r uck in thef a co ' ' : = ' feelf in a boxing attitude .

By way Of Jjdogy for the Austrian ' s conduct , we are t o ld b y his nperiorstluithe acted according to the rules of the aperial Service , which rules require , under pain of asr / riafion and dismissal , that an officer on duty , if : ? suspects he is about to he struck , shall cut down the fender . The Austrian Government made those - . « , and the Tuscan Government adopted an

      Aus-3 iE twee subjected fc » the s ; iid rules , which , when p : : mo operation against a son of Eng land , became -frd » y au outrage npon this country , a nd one whi c h ; :: Government was bound to resent by any and every -ass ; and for which was hound to obtain redress r ' anatts jcharacter than the £ 222 , which the Bake -C-: ? igliaxo proffers as a mark of the liberality and prosify of * his Imperial and Royal Highness the sasd Dnke .

      THE L > EMOCRxlTIC REFUGEE COMMITTEE . TO THE PEOPLE OF GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND . Yellow Couxtryjiew , —We are not labouring in vain . With the assistance we have received we have already been able to effect some good in the way of ameliorating the condition of the refugees ; hut very much more remains to be done . To enable " u s to fulfil ou r holy mission we appsal to you to come forward and give your aid . Employment has been obtained for a few of the many lacking the means of subsistence . It is most desirable that efforts be forthwith made in every district to find work o { some kind for the destitute . To this end the formation of local coaimiitees is of the first importance . We are happy to learn that such a committee , composed of influential " and benevolent men , has been formed hi Nottingham . We trust that example will be followed in other places .

      Annexed is a statement of monies received by this comraittee . Notwithstanding the liberal contributions of Viscount Goderich and other friends , the amount received up to this time is altogether inadequate to meet the claims upon the committee . It is , the r efore , imperative that every one who desires the preservation of the soldiers of the cause ol European Freedom should at once contribute , according to his ability , that we may be able to find for the exiles the means of support , or at least of relief . You hare been told that you cannot hel p the refugees until yoa h ave made a revolution ia your own l a nd , that you cannot afford to be generous until you have first obtained your social and political rights . What a fen- have already done shows what could hs accomplished if taken up by the many in spite of existing political arrangement . We very well know that the great mass of our own peop le have li ttle to give , that they themselves suffer ; yet we know that t hey are no t s el f i s h , and that they will never have recourse to sophistry , in order to escape from the performance of a

      duty . To relie v e and protect the refugees is a sacred dutya duty , the fulfilment of which is the work of to-day , and not one to he spoken of in connexion with a future conquest of " political and social rights . " While these rights were being strugg led f o r , the unfortunate victims of European tyranny mi ght perish . Our continental brothers h ave struggled for political and social rights , not merel y for themselve ? , but for all mankind . Assist thera then ia their day of aSiction since they have stood forward in our common cause and battled under Humanity ' s banner , Obey the inspirations of conscience , and treat with scorn those who would preach to you selfishness and sophistry in place of thef hol y dutiespa" cribed by justice and fraternity . !

      Hailstorm At Manchester. On Monday After...

      HAILSTORM AT MANCHESTER . On Monday afternoon , considerable damage was done to property in the town ind neighbourhood of Manchester by a storm of hail , accompanied with thund r and lightning . Property in Pendietonj Eccles , and Patricroft , appear to have suffered most , and in these places mill and greenhousa windows must have been destroyed to the extent of some thousands of pounds sterling . At Patricroft the storm commenced shortly before three o ' clock , and the hail descended in crystallised pieces of ice nearly the shape of pears ; Messrs . Naysraltu and Gaskill ' a works , called the Bridgewater Foundry , had between 2 , 000 and 3 , 000 squares of g lass broken in the skylights over the sheds . Mr . Kaysmith gives an interesting account of these crystal !) , some of wliicU \ scre more than : \ n incti in length , which be says

      had evidently fail < n the heavier end downwards . Augmenting in size as they descended , the successive layers of tbe cryatals being clearly perceptible , the thickness of the atones had increased at an angle of thirty-five , which is that at which water crystallises . Throe of the hailstones picked up at Eccles weighed an ounce and three quarters . At Eccles the cotton mill of Messrs . John Chad wick and Brothers suffered to the extent of upwards of 5 , 000 squares of glass in the weaving sheds , besides gl ' ae s b ro k n in ot h er parts of the mill . It is estimated that £ 200 will scarcely make good the damage . The siikmill of Mr . Thomas linawortb , also at Eccles , had from " 1 , 500 to 2 , 0 0 0 squ a re s of glass broken in the weaving shtdsi Here the piecea of silk in the looms suffered great damage , not only f rom t h o defending hailstones , which wetted the fabric and deitroyed the colours for nearly a yard ia length each of about 230

      looms , bat from the pieces ol glass- toat Knocked tnrougn upon t h em , cutting and otherwise damaging the silk goods they come in contact with . No estimate had been formed of tho total damage in this mill , but it will be co siderable . Many of tho market gardeners will have suffered much hi this vicinity . , The storm reached Pendleton about a quarter past three o ' clock , and hail stones were picked up measuring three inches in circumference . These fell with great force , and many persons struck by them were much hurl . In tho weaving sheds of Sir Elkanah Armitage ' s mill , about 1 , 500 squares of glass were broken , and at his residence , which is near the mill , about 300 squares of glass in tho greenhouse were broken . The darkness was so great during the storm that the machinery had to hestopped and the hands to leave off work . Atthemill of Messrs . J . andT . Aehworth , Pendleton , about 1 , 380 squares of glass were broken over the weaving sheds .

      It did not reach Manchester until about four o ' clock , but it lasted until nearly five . The hail was not heavy at Ajanchester , however , though rain fell in torrents . The " iirnjer nart of a chimney belonging to the Old Quay Carriinp fJompany , at their premises on the left bank of tho Trwell in Water-street , Manchester , was struck by the lightning at about half-past four o'clock .

      FRANCE . State of France—The Tyrant hearded—Bonaparte ' s Crimes—Strikes—Depopulation of France—Awful ' tragedy—The December Massacres—The new ' National Guard . ' < ( From a « r ohm Correspondent , ) ' Paris , June 23 . Those unaccustomed to look beneath tho surface would be likel y enough to say that the existing reg ime was firml y eatablishecl , ami the people both happy and contented . The funds "keep up , " and tho slinking selfish money-grubbers are contented , and g lory in the triumph of " order . " The Mamraonites are shrewd it is true , out they are not quite so knowing tni they take themselves to be . Notwithstanding their sympathies with the enemies of the peop le , the funds do not constitute an unerring " political pulse . " Those who think so should remember that the funds

      rose . 5 B the evo of the 24 th of February ! Bat remnojt j kjid ' us a nous moutons . As , I say , appearances wafild indicate that the throne of the tyrant Bonaparte is firmly fixed , whereas , on the contrary , it so totters that b y a very breath it may be overthrown . The stability of the existing government is bosh ; aa yoa would readil y believe , could you witness the sensation produced on the people here b y the debate on the Bud get in the " Corps Legislatif" last night . The whole affair of the Orleans property ( which was

      finally decided u favour of the government last . week ) had nothing like the effect on the public that this has had . I w o ul d mu c h li k e to send yo u a f u l l re po rt of th e discussi o n , but I know you would not have space for itsMnsertion-. Bonaparte was present during the debates (?) , a 4 cfe which seemed to make more spirited the opposition of those who spoke is hostility to the budget . M . Kerdrel and M Montalembert , although with much circumlocution , said sometellingthings . no / onlyofthebudget , but of the Very constitution n-bich "has saved the country . "

      This "pluck" on the part of tbe Leg i s l a tive ia be a rd i n g the lion in his den will not be fruitless . It will set the ball a rolling , which must shortly roll away the power of the miscreants of December . The court martial at Lyons has just convicted M . Larcher , the manager of the property of 51 . Cremieux , of havin g joined a conspiracy to murder all the officers of the 13 ih regiment . Larcher has been in custody since he was committed upon this extraordinary charge , which W 89 made some time before December 2 nd , and w hich was , of course , nothing more than a , parcel of lies , got up for the purpose of getting a patriot transported . Two s er gea n t s of the r eg iment , named Piel and Bonfils , have been also found guilty . TUey , together with Larcher , are sentenced to transportation . Another sergeant and two civilians , included in tbe indictment , are sentenced to six months imprisonment , lOOfr . fine , a nd de p rivati o n o f civd rights .

      Another strike of importance has occurred . At St . F . tienne , 1 , 200 workmen of the mining company of the Loire left their work . Unfortunately for the happiness of Bonaparte , a movement has been commenced among the many workers now on strike in different parts of the country to send deputations to the President , m ^ ch to that worthy gentleman ' s terror and disapprobation . % The damnable system of deportation still continues unat » icJ . Alt ihc most "huble and generous sons of this unhappy land are being torn from their homes by the brutal t yrant , and transported toCayenne .

      A considerable number Of political prisoners , ordered for transportation to Lambessa / . arrived at Havre on Sunday . 250 more are expected there to .-day . Rumours of a fearful tragedy-inconnexion with these unfortunate men freely circulate here ; They are to the effect , that the prisoners on board one of the ships on their way to Cayenne , mastered their guard i anil obtained possession of the vessel , when they were attacked by . the other two , and literally exterminated . They are yet only rumours , perh a ps exaggerated , but it is certain that accounts from P * ra state how an old man witnessed a terrible sea battle within a short distance of the shore , and how one of the three-ships engaged in it was fired into by the others , for a length 'of time . There is great fear , indeed , that this tragedy has been a butchtry of our captive brethren ,

      In spite of the exertmns of the police , a book lately published in London , entitled " L'ilistoire des Persecutions de Decemhre , " by Xavier Durrieu , has found its way into the hands of the Republicans and Socialists of Paris . Durrieu was formerly editor of " La Revolution , " and is now an exik . In this work he has laid before the world a faithful picture of the horrible crimes that were perpetrated by the Bonapartist assassins in December . * M . Bonaparte does not find his new National Guard very zealous in obeying his orders . When called out for drill Istely , scarce one of them appeared . Agents of the Ely see have been going amongst them endeavouring to get up another military fete for their master at thoir expense , but , picked though they have been , they are not to be " done , " and so have unequivocally declined .

      Pabis , Thursday . Two hundred and eighteen polical prisoners were taken yesterday morning out of the fort of Bicetre , and sent to Havre for transportation to Africa .

      ¦ GERMANY . Illness of the King of Prussia . —I 7 ie Free . Congregations ^ —Reaction in Bavaria . The King of Prussia was announced , at Berlin , on the IStb , to be suffering from a slight illness . The Emperor of Russia is expected at Berlin on tho 10 th of July , to meet the Empress , who will return with himto his dominions . The case of one of the free congregations , w hich th o police are everywhere dissolving , was hear d on fa ppoal by the Court of Insterburg on the 15 th , and decided against

      the government . A few months ago the police broke up the Insterburg congregation , and tho local public proseoucutor brought some of the parties concerned buforo tho court , when they were acquired . The police still refused permission for tho rc-opeuing of tho place of worship , and the public prosecutor appealed , calling upon a superior court to inflict a fine , and decree tbo ^ illegality of tho assemblies . The latter court having heard , the arguments and evidence on both sides , confirmed the judgment of the court below .

      Count Buol Schanenstein has addressed a note to Baron Prollesch Osten , declining for Austria any farther interchange of notes with Prussia relative to the German commercial question . BAVARIA . —By a ministerial rescript ; : the array is released from its oath to tbe constitution , arid ia to take an oath of fidelity to the King .

      SWITZERLAND . The priestly party in Switzerland are working hard to awaken another civil war . The second grea ' t demonstration of the Sonderbund party in the ca ' nton of . Fribourg , which had been summoned for the 15 tb , bag been countermanded . In the canton of Ticino considerable reli g i ous agitation is going on .

      ITALY . ROME . —A letter from . Rome of the Hth inst . says : — " With regard to the qase of Mr . Murray , I am happy in being abls to state , from a most trustworthy source , that tbe Pope has at last consented to grant this unfortunate young man a pardon . The original sentence of death is commuted into hard labour for life at the galleys . I have , however , reason to believe that it will not be fully carried into execution , but that before long it will ba materially altered ; hopes are , indeed , entertained of Murray being eventually set at liberty . " 2 JAPLES . —King Bomba has retired to Gaeta , for the purpose of superintending the military engineering of that

      for-^^ tress . The official journal contains a decree of commuted punishments of some thirty political offerers . The act , however , is scarcely one of clemency ; thirty years in irons are reduced to twenty , and so on , throughout the list , iv ^ i . . ^^ mm i ^ : ^ ¦ . ..

      Mazzini Axd Ricciardi. To The Emi0i5 Of ...

      MAZZINI AXD RICCIARDI . TO THE EMI 0 I 5 OF TBS STAR OP PKEEDOM . Sin , —Since you have judged it proper to publish , with the signature of Mr . Linton , a letter which concerns me , let mo request you to correct many errors which have found their way into that letter . First , the veiced que st ion which is alluded to is not between Mr . Mazzini and somb French Socialists , but between Mr . Mazzini and the French Socialists ; for , when Mr . Marzini took it into his head to assail , in tho most iniquitous and violent manner , and withoutany provocation on t heir pa rt , men who were all , at tho same moment , as it has been said somewhere else—either imprisoned , or condemned to deportation , or in oxile , for tho crime of having desired the alleviation of the people ' s sufferings—men who utwl lost their au ., position , f ortu n e , and country—for having always made war on the enemies of freedom , and especially on the enemies of Italian independence . When , I say , Mr . Mazzini assailed those honest and devoted men .

      those Republicans , he did not write : — "I accuse sovb Socialists ; " he wrote wdiscrimhutkly— " I accuse the Socialists . I accuse tuem I accuse them I accuse them ... etc etc " Mr . Linton excepts against Mr . Rioeiardi ; yet Mr . Riociardi is , beyond all dispute , a man of honour , a cle v er man , an Italian refugee , vrho has been very much concerned in the last revolution of his country , who has accuratel y written the history of that revolution , an d is i n a bettor condition to know tho facts than Mr . Linton , an E n g l i s hman , if 1 am not mistaken . ' It is true that Mr . Ricciardi is not a blind admirer of Mr . Mazzini ; but , towards Mr . Mazzini , almost all men of eminence , amongst the Italian patriots , a re i n t h e same situation : witness Gioborti , Montanelli , Cernusohi , Saliceti , Sirtori , Ster h in i , Granatelli , etc . Is Mr . Ricciardi mi honest Republican f yes or no . Has be been in such a position as to be well-informed ? This is the question . Now , wo had said , in our reply to Mr . Mazzini : —

      " That Mr . Mazzini was accused of having done an immense injury to his country , by sacrificing to his own Utopia the necessity of not detaching from the common cause Piedmont , which had all-organisation , money , and soldiers . " Mr . Ricciardi writes : — «« Mr . Mazzini remained at Milan about four months , in tho falsest position possible , and exercising a deletcrioas influence , since ita effect was to excite discord at the very moment tvhen the' union of ail against Austria was most necessary to shackle tho action of the provisional government of Milan , and to paralyse the impulse of tho Sardinian army . " We bad said in our reply ;—" That Mr , Maexirti was accused of having been mak i ng

      speeches while at Novara they were dyin # in battle . " Mr . Ricciardi writes : — " Iladimy name been Ouisoppo Maxzini , and had I been there at that period , I would have seized a musket and marched on the enemy at tbe very beginning of the war , well assured that my example would have electrified all tho youth of Italy , and added thousands of volunteers to those who had already taken arms from one end of the Ponninsula to tho other . It was not till the Austrians were already marching on Milan—that is to say—when all hope was lost , that Mr . Mazzini , issuing at length from hi s retre a t , inscribed his name amongst those ol Garibaldi's soldiers . "

      We had said , i n our re p ly ;—" That Mr , Mazzini arrived at Rome after tho Pope had been put to flight—after the Republic had been proclaimed —after the Revolution had been completed . " Mr , Ricciardi writes : — " The Grand Duke Leopold had fled from Vienna , and tha Republic had been proclaimed at Rome when Mr . Mazzini arrived in Central Italy ; he had therefore no sharo in those events . " Wo had spoken , in our reply : — " Of the pompous uselossness of Mr . Mazzini between tho work of tho constitution and the toils of the defence , between Saliceti , who held the pen of Republican Rome , and Garibaldi , who wielded its sword . " Mr . Ricciardi writes :

      — " The whole of Mr . Mazzini s merit as chief triumvir was confined , in my opinion , to the manner equally dignifiod and intelligent , in which , I rejoice to agree , ho represented the Roman Republic towards the agents of tho French government . True , his task was rendered very easy ; first ly , by this immense fact—That right and justice were altogether on the side he defended ; and , sec o n d l y , —By the inconceivable bunglinK of Mr . Louis Bonaparte ' s govern . 'i : ont . I will even sny that to it must be attributed , in a great measure , that kind of prestige which surrounds tho n » me , of Mr . Mazzini , which ought rather to surround that of Garibaldi , the chief hero of the noblo epic of which Rome was the theatre . "

      Mr . Ricciardi adds—and our reply mentioned nothing of that kind— " That Mr . Mazzini was very much to blame for not having carried war into Naples—not be / ore the fatal overthrow of Norara , since Mr , Mazzini was not yet in power—but after , as a means of easily recovering from it . " Is this charge well founded ? Is it true that , during the month of April , Mr . Mazzini gave orders to Garibaldi to enter the Jfuapoliun territory ? We hare hero a direct accusation brought by Mr . Ricciardi and contradicted by Ml * . Linton , who gets his history secondhand . I am going to Mr . Ricciardi , and as soon as his answer reaches mo I will direct it to you . In tho meantime , I ask to be allowed to give credit , about tbe facts of the Italian Revolution , to tho tvUtorianiof that revolution . "

      As for the pretended " an i m ad ver si on s o f Louis Blano " I am , in my turn , very sorry Mr . Linton should be so misled . Mr . Louis Blanc has long been connected with Mr . Mazzini . No French writer has more than Louis Blanc contributed to the reputation of Mr . Mazzini . Mr . Mazzini shook hands with Louis Blanc the very day whon the former was silently preparing his aggression against the Socialists ; and it was omt in consequence of that aggression , so unjust , so violent , so unex p ecte d , that Louis Blanc , sharing the indignation of every true Republican , was compelled to resent the attack of the aggressor . Let the responsibility of the struggle rest with him by whom it was commenced ' . I am , sir , yours very sincerely London , June 18 tb , Navavd .

Tho Democratic party aro about to make an effort to support the Executive Committee , and also to induce the electors to exact from tho candidates a pledge relative to the Suffrage and other important questions .

One , convened by the Jackson Democratic Association , was held in Washington the day before yesterday . General Cass was present , and delivered a long and able speech , from which I take the following extract : —

      I congratulate you , my fellow-citizems , upon the fortunate result Ot tlie labours of the Democratic Convention .. Thej have dona their work , « nd have done it well , jffiity have ' presented to us , as our standard-bearer , during the enidng Presidential campaign , an able and honourable cituwii , withjBciinracter bovoud reproach-a true democrat , a tried patriot , aSfr mi experienced statesman , who Has faithfully served Ids country in h gh stations , in peace and war , atid jiho will serve her with equal fidelity in that higher station to which we intend to elevate him . I knon- him neli , and say of him what I know of him . Ife will go tor tliii Union , for the whole Union , and for nothing but thc Union and the Constitution , discarding all sectional feelings , and diacouutetiancmg every effort to renew that agitation from which God , in his mercy , lias delivered us ; and I confidently trust aad believe that ourwhole party , everywhere through the land , will come up to the good work , and , with one heart and one minG , will gladly seise thij occasion to mutually forget and forgive past dissensions , so that the only strife hereafter will be who shall show most devotion to the true and time-honoured principles of our party .

      I am sorry to havo to say that tho so-called " true and time-honoured principles " contain much that is f » lse and detestable . Thus * ' the Baltimore platform " re-endorsed the " compromise " on slavery , and while indulging in lots of worn-out "bosh" about " federalism , " & c , & o ., omitted all mention of the question of American intervention in Europe . A question which must ere long force itself upon the government of this great Republic , whether Whig or Democratic . I repeat , I cannot but think it most remarkable that , notwithstanding the presence and eloquent teachings of Kossuth , the members of thcConventionshould have altogether eschewed the important question of our foreign policy . I enclose biographical notices of Pierce and King , tha choson chiefs of tho Democracy . Their publication in your sext number will be opportune ; \ ot these men , suddenly bocomo tamous , are by no means generally Known . This ig the case especially with Fieroe . ' StmiTge that be should take tho place of such men as Cass , Ruchatman , Marcy , and Douglas !

      It is very likely that before long the so-callod " Democratic National Convention" will bo rnoritodly esteemed a gathering of Jess importance , and having less interests for the people , than an assembly which lias been sitting at Washington about the same time that the Convention was sitting at Baltimore . The body I allude to is the National Industrial Congress , which commenced the holding of its seventh Congress on tho 2 nd inst , There wore a large number of delegates present . The following preamble and resolutions were adopted : — Whereas , By tho Constitution of tho United States , it it declared , That we , the people of the United States , in order to form a more ' perfeei union , establish justice , ensure domestic tranquillity , provide for the common defence , promote the general welfare , and secure thc blessings of liberty to ourselves had our posterity ; did ordain

      and establish the Constitution of the Union ;' and , whereas , the said Constitution of tke . United States Aue * provide , ' That the Congress of the iinitvd States shall have power to dispose of and make all needful rules and regulations respecting the territory and other property of the United States ; ' thcremre , bo it Resolved , ' Tmitall such needful rules and regulations in the mat . ter of the " public lands , or territory , and other property of the United States , " must be made , and such territory of the United States "disposed of" in accordant' * wi'h the higher intents and spirit of the said Constitution of the United States , as set forth in it » preamble , and that all departure therefrom bj endowing certain States , subject to thn after monopoly of th"m by railroad corporations , and capitalists , and the production of large lauded esta'es , isHvioliirion of the spirit and intents of the Constitution , and of tho j ister claims of the individual members of society in such endowments by preference .

      Hesolved , ' That Congress , under the Constitution , ha * no power in equity to so "dispose" of the public lands as tu permit , directl / or so m to eventuate remotely iu a monopoly ot the soil , either by individuals or corporations . A ' ur does the Constitution sanction any such disposal of the public l » ud 3 . Resolved , ' that large landed estates , however created , whether under despotisms , through hereditary lordships , by monarchical or colonial grants , or by money , power , and purchase , are equally dangerous and destructive of the liberties of all peoples , and havo bean through all time ; and that our vrcaont partial exemption from the extremist of the eviU attending monopuiyof the soil is not so much tho result of the good intentions of our National Legislators , hut spring mainly from the fact that the existing money capacity of our men of wealth is unequal to the task of grasping tha entire territory tit' the Union—not their nil ) ,

      Resolved , ' That the value in money of land often springs from the power ot the f « w to withhold it from sale or use , than trom its intrinsis value , and that all such rnluein pquity belongs to population , ik ' . ii its increase , and not tu the few ; and tint as land rises in value labour depreciates in value , while rents increase ; and that no compensation is rendered to the masses in any view of the case for sub . mission on their part to the injustice growing out of the monopoly of the soil . llesoivei ? , 'That land is an element of society and government , to which each adult inhabitant has as equal a claim as he haitothe electrivc franchise , freedom < Y opinion and speech , liberty of worship , to life itself ; or to any other of the recognised rights of man , as the citizens of a true State ; and that thc duty of government is to recognise , regulate , and define the rights , natural and acquired , of the citizens of the State , in harmony with the best it-tarests of nil , but restrictive of the just rights of none .

      Uesoived , ' That the American Kcvolution is yet in progress , and th t its mission will never he fulfilled until those features of our c « nditiou , laws and institutions that had their origin hi the original intentions of the British Crumi to plant upon American soil mo . narchical institutions , by grants of lauds and the saleof extended proprietorships , and the establishment of slave-holding , anil distinctions of grades in society , and the concurrent principles of action engendered by them , are in process of extinguishment 6 r entirely destroyed . J Resolved , ' That the Platform Committee be instructed to prepare a circular to the land reformers of the United State * , recommending them to vote for the nominee of any party who shall avow himself in writing to be favourable to the principles and measures of this Congress ; and that the said committee bo empowered to correspond immediately with thc several candidates of ail parties to learn their sentiments reserving our action , however , for an independent nomination , in case neither of the candidates of the other parties shall com * up to the requiredstandsrd .

      Resolved , ' Thas the rapid introduction and progress of machinery tending to depreciate the value and respect due to manuallahnm- iu ! duly considered by our National Industrial Congress , and thJ ^ hV m » ans devised for remedying the evil .
