BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC / PILLS . The following testimonial is another proof of the great efficacy of this meuicine . 157 , New Itond-street , London , October 12 th , 1850 . Sir , —In acquainting jou with the great benefit which I have experienced by taking Blaib's Goorar . d Hbeomatic Pitt's , I feel that I am but performing a duty to that portion of the public who may be similarly afflicted . About twenty years since I was first attacked by Rheumatic Gout in my hands and feet . _ I had previously been subjected to every variety of climate , having served in Canada in the 19 th Dragoons , and in Spain under Sir John Moore , in the 18 th Hussars . I always procured the best medical aid . bnt without obtaining any essential relief , and my sufferings can be appreciated only by those who know something of this disease . It was during one of these paroxysms , between twelve and thirteen years go , that I was recommended to try Dlaib ' s Piti-s . I lost no time in procuring a box , and 06 fore I had taken that quantity the pain had entirely ceased * and in a few days I was in perfect health .

Shadows Of Coming Events. Rumours Begin ...
SHADOWS OF COMING EVENTS . Rumours begin to be circulated aa to Ministerial intentions with respect to tbe promised "Reform Bill . From their conflicting nature , it may be inferred that tbere are two parties in tbe Cabinet—one prepared to improve the constituency to a small extentwhile the other ia resolutely opposed to any change of a bona fide character . "We hare often warned our readers not to expect any . thing very great from Lord JoHN RussELL , and tbe programme attributed to him fully bears out our cautions . The utmost he is
prepared to concede is said to tea £ 10 franchise in the counties , household suffrage tested b y rating in tbe towns ; and tbe ballot in both to secure the exercise of the franchise free from corruption or intimidation . On the other band , it is stated that some of hia colleagues oppose , anything which implies a real change of power in the smallest degree , and are endeavouring to compel the PREMIER either , to aban do n his ple dg e altogeth er , or to bring forward such a small and pettifogging measure as would expose him to scorn and contempt even in tbe present House of
Commons . The Ministry and their official onhangers have certainl y been very much encouraged to play this game by the apath y w ith which the question has latterly boen regarded out of doors , and it is said that influences are at work by which the Conference of Reformers at Manchester next week will be converted , ii possible , into a wet blanket , instead of an impetus to the movement . Looking at the somewhat studied and preconcerted absence of professed friends , like Messrs . Cobden , Bright ,
and others , from the meetings of Sir Joshua WalmsLEY ' S Association , it is not unlikely that a juste milieu scheme may be proposed at that Conference , and supported by the powerful influence of the sec t i on of the ' Liberal ' party represented by these gentlemen . If this is the c ase , we trust it will be rejected in auch a manner as to convince its authors that the time has gone by f o r paltering with popular rights , or longer delaying concession to the just and reasonable demands of the people for political enfranchisement .
One great effect , however , of such a proposal , should it be made , would be to separate the really honest and sincere adyocates of the * Little Charter' from the trimmers , waverers and waiters upon Providence , mixed up with them . In one of the daily journals this conting e n c y has been distinctl y pointed to and an intimation given , that in that case the Parliamentary Association might feel it to be its duty to take tho broader and more solid groun d o f M a n h ood Suffr a g e , an d thus brin g to bear the whole of the united energies of

the P eo p le ' s Party upon CopPOCk ' s House of Commons . The communication referred to had a semi-official tone about id , and may be supposed to speak the sentiments of the leaders of the middle class agitation for Suffrage Reform , We have frequently endeavoured to press upon the attention of Sir Joshua Walmsley and his colleagues the propriety and the sound policy of their adopting such a course . We are sure the * have gained no
real strength among the upper classes b y their present policy , while they have undoubtedly caused the masses to hold aloof , because there was not such a frank and full recognition of the principle upon which the right to the Franchise is founded , as satisfied them . Wo do not want to exercise the Suffrage in consequence of living in houses of a certain rental , or because we pay so many pounds or shillings per annum in the shape of rates ; what is demanded is the enfranchisement of
man , not bricks and mortar , o f tho creator of property—not that which he creates , Until political power is held by this tenure it must be always more or loss exclusive ; and , consequently , unjust to those excluded . A settlement short of that demanded by principle would be no settlement at all . The moment it was concluded , all the classes shut out by it from the exercise of political rights , would commence an agitation for the removal of the barriers to the exercise of these rights , and the removal of tbe badge of inferiority placed upon them , by arrangements which converted them , still
more distinctl y an d insulti ngly , into political Helots . It would be far better , in every possible light jthe question can be looked at , to settle it at once upon a definite and a permanent basis . Continuous agitation by excluded and disaffected classes is not an agreeable' nor a healthy feature of society . The true interest of all classes would be much more surely promoted by a full measure of justice than by passing any peddling and limited scheme , which would merely create new discontents and give rise to fresh clamour . Neither need there be any fear of the practical
acknowledgment of Manhood Suffrage and its establishment as a right . The people of this country , by their general conduct for many years , and especially in that which is about to close , have shown themselves possessed of the qualification s requisite for the judicious , temper a te , imd proper discharge of political duties to a greater extent than the people of any country in the world . There can be nothing to fear from them , except the chance
that ingratitude , on the part of their rulers , towards a people who have shown such a love . of order , such patient industry , such willing obedience to tbe law , may render them impatient of a Government and institutions which deny them the ri ghts of freemen ; a n d in a time of excitement , they may extort by force what a far-sighted statesman would concede in the midst of a political calm , with a grace that would attach the people still more closly to their institutions and their rulers .
We do not oppose the Parliamentary Reform Association , or any other body which avowed ly seeks an extension of the franchise short of the People ' s Charter . So far as they go they march our way ; but we think it our duty , ou all proper occasions , to reason w i t h them as to the points of difference between us , in a friendly spirit ; and while wo should not reject a measure based on rating or residence , we earnestly urge the consideration of the questson , whether principle and policy do not concur in recommending the adoption of the broader and juster foundation we argue for .
Sir Joshua Walmsley and his friends may depend upon it , that Lord John will not p ass a bill i nten d e d to perpetuate the rule of Whiggery only , so easily as pure Whigs may imagine . The conservative party are full y alive to the importance of the question , and in the Morning Herald' are sounding the note of preparation for the strife , Pressed upon , therefore , as he will be b y his formidable political rivals , ho will , to a great degree , be at the mercy of the' * liberal' party —not whiga—who may make , to a large extent , their own terms with him :
In the face of a General Election , which can , under no circumstances , be far off , we trust th e y w ill p er f or m their duty in su c h a manner as will enable them to present themselves at the hustings with a chance of re election . If not , wo rnust try to find more earnest and faithful representatives , even were it only to the extent of five or ten , who will , in another Parliament , advocate the People ' s cause without compromise or eoncession . The question must be no longer dallied with or delayed . It is above aud before all others in importance , a n d is the indispensable precursor of a host of social and educational improvements , which are necessary to place the moral , on a par with the material condition of this country .

HAMPTON The struggle for liberty , or rather for existence , which has for several months been the cause of so much anxiety to the various Trade Societies , has , at length , terminated victoriously in favour of that liberty of combined action , without which the Combination Act , instead of being a protection , would be th e most subtle snare under the sun . We had
always indulged the hope that it would be 80 , though well aware of the fearful odds we were contending against . So far as the principle we have alluded to was in jeopard y , the victory is declared in favour of the working classes . We will bri e fl y recal tbe attention of our readers to the actual danger from which , for the present , they have escaped —we say for the present , for the adv a nt age thus won will require vigilant guardians to maintain it . The indictment - Perry againstRowlandsand eight others , ' was directed against two classes of persons—against two modes of attack and
protection which the working class have again s t thei r e mp loyers . The one charge was directed against intimidation , threats , aud the persuasion of men under contract to leave before their time was comp leted ; the other charge was directed against such as relied on peaceable persuasion alone , and that onl y o f such men as were at libert y to leave their work when they liked . The first charge was directed
speciall y against the nine defendants . The second charge—the counts charging the persuasion of free men—was directed against ever y Trade Society in the kingdom , and its object was to annihilate everv one of them We know that all this has been repeatedly explained before by ourselves and others ; but we recapitulate it in order that the victory so nobly ach « ered may be the more intelligible , unmistakeable , and indelible .
mJnJ *! " ? Urge (^ readers must bear in nltwpiW ° i thi 8 arl 5 cl ° the di ^ ° « on 3 the H : ° ch & W * ™« i wbich we have named inTw F ? P ortance to t , ie ^™ S ? W ? v them dicWnt , and to their immediate locality and friends ; but beyond this it Tp , ^ general l ? tere 8 t It is obvious that 1 RADE toociETIBS have no desire to asserted have nomterest in asserting , aright to intimT date or to persuade men to break their contracts
. When such a charge is made , it must be met , as well it may be , by exposing its wantonness or falsehood-i n / he samelay in tact , as any other groundless accusation . But the question involved in the second charge was one really of life and death . If Perry F ™ ift !}* ™ , aw ' ever y Trade Society in England was contrary to law ; for every Trade Society relies on peaceable persuasion , peaceable strikes , a fund to support the men out of work , th e ri ght to ' picket the shop , ' and reason with those who , from ignorance of

the circumstances , are offering UiemsC ' v c work there , as its strongest weapon a - ^ oppression—its onl y weapon , in fact J ^ employers who obstinatel y shut thej /' " ' against the voice of sense and argumen t ^ Now , as to the offence comprehended ' first charge , there of course was i ^ -J 11 ^ doubt but that it was clearl y illegal , Vviolence w a s f o rmerl y a recognised mni *' remedying the grievances of workiim '• is , indeed , true enough ; nAy " - '"fit true , too , that violence will still , run / '• then , be resorted to in cases where law " ^ justice are corruptly denied to tho oppress il , !! * but then all who have recourse to tho r > ' ^ are aware that they are acting coinr " ^
law and wrovokins its y > yi Ynshmr . ru . < i .. ^ law and provoking its punishment ; they t . i their chance , and no doubt have their n ^ J ' consolation , But with regard to the s ,. ^ charge the case was widely different . ~ \\\ f thcr ' peaceable persuasion ' was Inga ' l or was a question on which the worlrino el- - * ' were at direct issue with Perry , " Ka ^ Wynne , and company . The former loud ? boldl y , and at all times and places , asscnl the right—never shrunk from asserting n __ public meetings , before magistrateship " our highest Courts of Law , The latter doajj ti t
ns rigiiQ—uovery DOiuiy mueeu ; the rather waited the opportunity of ' staliiim , in the dark '— -mixing up the ' persuasion' Li ' intimidation . ' together , in the ho pe [\ 1 while they struck the one they might kUt ' „ I heir mark ou the other . The Law with regard to ¦ Conspiracies to persuade' stood thus : —it was admitted 0 f course that one man might persuade anotliet to leave his work if tho latter was under jq legal obligation to stay : but it was said % \ for two men to agree to persuade the third to leave was a conspiracy and contrary to laff Several cases before the courts had a ]< , „ ' „
time ago been so decided , and unless these cajpj could be shaken , the law would be as P crr ~ contended it was . Ou the other hand , tli w » was the opinion of Baron lloll ' e , In the vjefl . known case , Jones and another against SchU and others , which was clear and positive to \| jc effect that what one man mi ght do , others might conspire to persuade him to do . . \ week or two ago we gave this portion of the
learned Baron ' s judgment in ful l , but wo c-jj attention . to it again , because it is the fiva direct and positive recognition of the rii-lt contended for—and we have no doubt but that it is to this judgment that we are , in fivct , it . delted for the contradiction in the Queen ' s Bench on Monday last , ef the law as laid down , by Mr . Justice Erie at Stafford , ou th 3 trial of this indictment . But we are autici pating .
This opinion of Baron Rolfo was of coin-,-, most valuable—the Magna Ciiauta , as iiaj been repeatedly stated , of Trades' Societies , Still tho opinion had not the force of law , as it was merel y a n op i n i on , not an actual de . cision on the point in question . On the trial at Stafford this opinion was brought prominently forward ; the judged winced at it , aaj became irritated , but he could not deny it 3 existence . . When , however , the learned judge came to sum up , he charged in direct contra .
diction to Baron Itolfo ; he admitted that tin men of a particular shop had the right to combine together and to * strike' for hi gh * wages ; but he denied the right of men in another shop , even though of the same trade , to persuade or to combine for tbe assistance of those- who were on strike . To this persmsit % offence , one of the counts was mainly directed , and two of the defendants , Rowlands and Win . ters were , by the evidence accused of That , and of nothing else , Theiesuft was that all ttu defendants—Rowlands and Winters as well as
the rest—were convicted on all the countspersuasion , threats , and everything else . : When then the case came before the Queen j Bench there were the opinions of the in judges , Erie and ltolfe , in direct antagonism to each other . We stay not to comment oa the mighty advantage which the prosecution had in the fact that their judge was one of the . tribunal appealed to , while ourfl , unfortunately for us , was removed to a diiferent sphere of action . And there were other disadvantages . Lord Campbell has no liking for . working men—he regards them as ' dun *
gerous , ' and would willingly impede them in their course . Still , however , we had con « fidence in tho result- —so powerful and over whelming is the strength of truth—and the end has proved the truth of our anticipations . We knew the instructions to the counsel for the defence—to reiterate in every variety of tone , word , gesture and defiance the right vt claim—the fi ght to persuade a man to do tU which the man has a right to do of himself ^ and we did not believe that Erie in JLonh wou l d h a ve t he cour a ge to s tand by the l a v he had laid down at Stafford .
We have not time to detail the particular ! of the contest at Westminster . It was bold !; and gallantly fought through a hard day , \ lt longest that the court has sat during the ' term . Besides the six counsel who defended at Stafford , they had the assistance of the Attorne y General , Sir Alexander Cockbum . a ndoi Mr . Peacock , Q . C . It was one of the noblest defences of the rights of working men wliieh We have fever listened to . Every defemM
proudl y avowed that he Had endeacouredti p e rs u ade —every counsel asserted the right to do so , The speech of John Humphreys Farrt will not easily be forgotten b y those who hail the privilege of hearing it : Whateley « as ' grand' in his denunciation of the injustice at Stafford , Judgment was postponed ; " " Monday last , in order that in the meantime the judges—four of them— -Campbell , &>«• ridjje , Patteson and Erle-mklit co nfer I *
gether . On all points of difference it f observed during the speeches of counsel tu » Campbell and Erie held together , and tW Patteson and Coleridge appeared tolean to t ' arguments in favour of the defendants . On Monday . last judgment was given . ^ first part of that day ' s drama was significa 0 * of what was to follow . It will be recollect * - that there was a count ' charging persuasion- * h ot entire ly alone but very nearly so- " must also be recollected that there were t " defendants , Rowlands and Winters , & ] , whom a ' cbnsDiracv to vmrsnade' vas pr "
a t Staffor d , and nothing more . Bear &> thoroughly in mind .
