Bsbjtoxnser Lociurr.—Mr Frederick Jeffri...
BsBJtoxnsEr Lociurr . —Mr Frederick Jeffries is elected Secretary of this locality . TUP DUDLEY CAMP MEETING . Sunday last was a glorious day for . Chartism in Dudley and the neighbourhood . Notwithstanding the msny baseand unmanly attempts to suppress the shore meeting , it was held in despite of unprincipled opponents . The large placards , with very few exceptions , were no sooner put up than they were plastered over with other bills , and the small ones shared the same late . The authorities threatened to arrest the leaders , thinking to intimidate them , and thereby top proceedings , ( not only ia Dudley , but also at he preliminary meeting held at Bilston in themornnz . ) but it was " no so "—real , staunch , honest Chartists are not so easily driven from their
par-Even the formidable array of servile policemen , Who were marched on to the ground by tha Dudley authorities , had not the'desued effect ; the meeting was held , and a more attentive , more peaceable , or better conducted meeting it was never our lot to witness . The various speakers were highly gratified with the profound attention the assembled thousands gave them ; and on the other hand , the people were evidently well pleased with every speaker . This meeting proves to demonstration , that the public mind is improving rapidly , and that ere long the principles of democracy will be firmly established . - Mr O'Connor arrived at two o ' clock , and when he ascsuden the platform , the wavin * of hats , the
clapping of hands , and cheering ; was tremendous' 1 Mr O'Connor ' s being under the necessity of leaving at three o ' clock to attend iohisdnties at Nottingham , altered the arrangements of the committee . They intended Mr O'Connor to be nearly the last speaker , instead of which he was obliged to speak first , and when he left , crowds of people followed him off the ground . When Messrs O'Connor and Doyle got into the coach , the spontaneous cheering ot the whole neeting , ( with the exception of the policemen and their drivers , ) was truly astounding-. HtSttTTJtli CfJOE , Draper VE Dudlev ,
wasnnanlmouslye-iledtothechair . andina brief but argumentative speech , clearly convinced the meeting that we had an indubitable right to meet to do good even oa the Sabbath-day , and after reading the placard convening the meeting , he introduced Mr O'Connor to move the following resolution , and Mr O'Connor certainly did justice to the subject , both "Whigs and Tories coming in for a share of his thunder . The authorities of Dudley will long remember tha drubbing they got from Mr O'Connor . Herivetted ihe attention of tha multitude to his discourse , and has made a lasting impression in favour of Chartism . The following is the resolution : —
" That we are of opinion the object of every govern ment should be to promote the happiness of the people , and that tbe best way to accomplish this , is to cultivate osrresonrces at home , in preference to placing ourselves Et the mercy of foreigners for the necessaries of life . We are further ofopinionthatitisthe duty of government to rapport and accelerate the progress of the National Co-operative Land Plan established by Feargus O'Connor , Esq . " At the conclusion of Mr O'Connor ' s address , Mr Donemade a brief speech , in which hejclearlj proved , that it was not only the dutrflmt the interest of every Land member to support " the principles of Cfctrtism .
Mr Thomas Almond seconded the resolution witb feelings of pleasure , because he felt convinced that practical Chartism was the only means by which the working population coald better their condition . He also felt satisfied the corn-Ian- nostrum had proved a complete failure , and declared that he had been worse situated since Cobden ' s measure passed than before . He naked the huge mass of working men assembled before him , if they had derived any benefit from a repeal of the corn-laws ? to which the whole assembly responded in the negative , and declared they were decidedly worse off than they had teen previously .
The CruiBitijf then'introdaced Mr John Chance , of Stourbridge , to move the following resolution , which he did in a powerful and argumentative speech , in which he clearly proved thai " as God had made man equal , * man had no right to create an inequality . ' Mr Chasce then read the following resolution : — "Tiat we , ths people here assembled , believa ell men are rooal in the sight of God , ana that all men ought to enjoy an equal shareof political power . We are further of opinion thatthe documentcslled the People ' s Charter is the only measure which will confer any real or permanent benefit on tha working classes , and for these reasons weare determined tome every ltgM , peaceable and constitutional means to get the six paints of the People's Charter passed into law , and to be satisfied with nothing less . "
Mr Nkos , of Stourbridge , in a very powerful and eloquent speech , expounded the six points of the People's Carter , and seconded the resolution . Mr FussEu . in a seat and eloquent speech , iawhish le showed the necessity of supporting Chartist candidates at the general election , moved the following resolution : — " That in order to carry ont the former resolution , we tereby pledge ourselves iuulricuaUy , and collectively , to TOeeray possible effort to raise funds to carry Chartist candidates at the general election . " Mr Booth , of Smethwick , seconded the resolution . Mr Gooi >? Ei £ ow , in a clean andlacid speech , replete with sound arsameut , moved the fallowing
resolu" That ire take ihls opportunity ot manifesting our eonfidenceinFeargnj O ' Connor , E > q ., and bis brother directors , and all othir honest advocates of the people ' s sights , srad return them onrsinocre thanks far the many ietersotaea efiira they bars mads aud are itltl mtklrg

to proeore freedom and independence of the working classes . " ¦ TftfftfmBMAS then announced thai Mr Linney , of Bilston , would offer himsf-lf as a candidate for the borough of Dudley , on Chartist principles in , opposition to Mr Benbow , the Tory candidate . This announcement was received with thundeis ofappl * - . Mr Lasix , in seconding the resolution , showed Ihe meeting the great services which Mr O'Connor and his brother director * had conferred upon the , workine classes . He declared that Mr O'Connor .
had laboured disinterestedly as no man had ever laboured befare , and that he hishly merited the respect and confidence of every working man . Mr L . also passed high encomiums on every other honest aud tried advocate of tho people's rights . De then addressed tho people in reference to contesting the election , and declared that he would not consent to give np one iota of ihe principles contained m the People ' s Charter . In short , he declared be would sacrifice every social and domestic comfort , rather than sacrifice his avowed principles . The resolutions were all carried wilhout a
dissentient . „ . , , Mr Lussar proposed and Mr Nis » n seconded a vote of thanks to the chairman , which was carried unanimously . „ The meeting then dispersed in the mos peaceable manner . .... .. 1 . 3 AsLACWJf . —The men of Aclscton having heard and r < aJ , from the Star , an address from the Central Registration and Election Committee , calling on a ll true friends to progression ; agree to render all the assistance in their power to effect the return of Chartist candidates to parliament , by a

To The Member3 Op The National Land Comp...
TO THE MEMBER 3 OP THE NATIONAL LAND COMPANY . Fbienos , —I feel it to be my duty again to address you , aud once more afford an illustration of the triumphant progrsss of our society . On Wednesday , the 14 th of July , I addressed a large open air meeting in Hanley Potteries . Between SO and 60 members were carolled . Indeed , the enrolment of members In this district exceeds tho exper . tstions of the most enthusiastic in the cause . Last night ISnewmpmbers joined—receipts £ 10 lis , and the whole number now amounts to 350 .
On Friday , the 16 th , I addressed a considerable meeting in TunstsA , which wouldhavebeen much augmented , had I been enabled to balance a plate on th * end of my stick , or a ladder on tbe end of my chin . Tbe whole population , with the exception of my meeting , were assembled to sea some mountebanks going through their manoeuvres . On Sunday afternoon , the 13 tb , I addressed a full gathering on the Grower Bank , Hanley . This place is connected with old associations , and the police seemed to think so too , for I had a guard of 50 blues on the Wednesday . Our peaceful demeanour , however , disarmed these sentry . On Monday , the lDth , I lectured in Longton , in the People ' s Hall , to a considerable and most attentive audience .
Oa Tuesday the grand trial came off at Newcastleunder-Ljne . I was informed that my head would be broken if I presumed to speak about thc Charter and Land in tbe great stronghold of the enemy . That threat , as a matter of course , only determined me to speak in Newcastle at all hazards , I accordingly walked over alone , and at the appointed time I met some of my pottery friends in tbe market place . To my utter astonishment I found the authorities had erected a temporary hustings , on which I mounted without any hesitation , and commenced my address . But we very soon found out our mistake , for the police made a rash the moment I denounced the aristocrats and a land monopoly , and our apple cart was upset . The indignation of the people was very marked , and their rage would hare found vent in blows , bad I not
marched tbem off to a timber yard , and there and then entered into a complete exposition of the Land and tho Charter movements , I immediately declared my determination to march back to the marketplace and take it , Back wo did go , and take and keep it we did . I was several times interrupted , but I warned the persons so doing , that we would keep tbe peace until it was broken against us , and that then I would be tho first to lead the people on against tbose who had so grossly and wantonly insulted ns . I was dttmavava that Derby should be remembered and revenged in Newcastle , but tbe brutal and base thought it was the best part of valour to be discreet , and leave men alone who were resolute and determined to stand their ground in a just and holy cause . Tru ' . h is all
powerful , and the justice of ear cause bore me over all opposition . I had three tremendous cheers for the Charter , and the Irish navies , who backed up like men , called and bad three times three for Mr O'Connor , An apology for a man attempted to oppose me , and got as far as " Genilemen , I beg leave to differ , " when he was projected by the navies into the middle of the meeting , and tossed about like a cask on the turbulent waters . Tho police then interfered again , but I cautioned them to desist , and tbey were . wise enough to do so . Some of Brack , ley ' s supporters shouted pull him down ( meaning me ) , but they did not try it . Indeed / . some of them wanted some one to pull thorn up . . Tours very faithfully ,
