THE DEMOCRATIC REVIEW OF BRITISH AND FOREIGN POLITICS , HISTORY , AND LITERATURE . Edited by Gr . Julian Basnet . No . 12 . May . London ; J . "Watson , 3 , Queen ' s Head-passage , Paternoster-row . A mere enumeration of the articles contained in this number ofthe Democratic Review wil ] inSteto show file variety and interesting
chararfer of its contents . The Editors Letter to the WorMng Classes , devoted to a review of tie late motion made by Mr . Milner Gibson fertile repeal of the Taxes on Knowledge , completes the series of articles pronounced by ths Irishman as being " decidedly the clearest exposition that has yet appeared of thewrongs io which the -millions are subjected by the _iaxes imposed on popular publications . " "Bural Slavery * ' is briefly , _bnfc forcibly , de-Eaibed in a letter from a workman in the
comity of Kent The third article is a continuation ofthe able defence ef "Democracy , " in reply to tiie "latter-day " animad-Teraons of Thomas Carlyle . We give the foiloirine extract : —
DEMOCRATIC MARTTBS . Our opponents say to us : — - " Tou are a small contemptible faction of proletarians , led by a few deagning demagogues * , and yet yon pretend to change tfe face ofthe civilised world ! You set yourselves in opposition to te ; to the governments of Europe , ** ith their standing armies ; to the aristocracy , with * fe v ast territorial possessions and its feudal _privifeges ; to the state churches , with their immense ** erthh ; and to the bourgeoisi e , with its competitive system , its sordid , grasping , avaricious _spirit , so completely opposed to all generous impulses , all noble aspirations ! " We answer , " Yes , 0 wise nea ( of Gotham )! We are not only so mad as to
-5 _otlas * -ery thing' bnt we go the insane length of ho \ k g calmly forward tothe time when you and Y"r system of atrocious lies , trill he swept into cuter darkness , into the domain of the father of lies _—thereto , in _fecf-, you properly belong . " All _ttperience is against "as , it is said . 1 think one of 15 * . most astonishing " experiences" in the history of humanity , was the appearance of the democratic idea in the person , of a poor despised Jewish proletarian , the Galilean carpenter ' s son , who JS **" - * --probably at his father's trade—till he was _^ _Jij years of age , and then began to teach this _•^ wrapped in parables and figures—to other _joiiang men ; chiefly fishermen , it is said , who
""" tened to Mm while they mended their nets , or cast them into the lake of Gennesaret . What mattsr _, though in order to elaborate the democratic _j-fe _" _. the soul has required eighteen centuries of _jaoonr , and agony , and bloody sweat—continued _^•• " gb a never-failing succession of organs—from _« j"r t agony , in Gethsemane , of its first organ for _"egression of the idea that God and man are _^*?

"' ""' But _among the thirty-six millions composing the population of France , there are twenty-five millions of { _pedants "; the proletarians and small traders form an immense majority in the cities ; and the bayonets of patriotic soldiers can be numbered by . tens , by . . . hundreds ,, of thousands ! ........ _„ ...

defenders , the saviours of society ; its _represesentatives par excellence , yet you fear Universal Suffrage , that sublime voice uttering the will of _Bocicty ! If popular ignorance has favoured the continuance of your dark and mysterious supremacy , it must be allowed you have done everything to perpetuate this ignorance and to abuse it You have persecuted the press ; you have revived confiscation in the form of fines ; you have forbidden the vending of Republican journals—you have even gone the length of hindering their being sent to private houses ; you have changed prefects and mayors into censors , gendarmes into spies ; you have made a tyrannical law regarding the opinions of the teachers
in primary schools ; you have spent about a million in propagating calumnies ; you have placed five departments in a state of siege , and tried to prevent the admission of Thought there , as if it were a prohibited piece of merchandise;—and yet you are afraid of Universal Suffrage ! . The reactionists are judged . _Ko , those who long to snatch these pacific balls from the hands of the people , knowing that they must be replaced sooner or later , by the sword—are not the defenders of order . Those who wish to deprive the proletarian of a voice in the
making of those laws which affect the well-being of his children , are not tbe defenders of domestic ties . Those who nourish the wild hope of erasing the names of twenty-five millions of small landholders from the list of electors , are not the defenders of property . In conclusion , there are only two paths open to us ; the one conducts to the peaceful and legal triumph of Socialism , by means of Universal Sufirage ; the other leads directly to a terrible social convulsion ; by means of a civil war . We must choose between these paths .
A continuation of Dr . Marx ' s " Two Tears of a Revolution" is followed by an interesting notice of "De Flotte , Vidal , and Carnot ; " a report of "A Festival in Commemoration of the "birth of Maximilian Robespierre ; " a review of Lonis Blanc ' s "Historic Pages from the French Revolution of 1848 , " & c , & c . This month ' s " Letter from France" is of more than usual interest . This number com--pleting the first volume , a title-page ( with dedication ) , and index thereto , are given . In the coarse of an address to his readers , the Editor makes the following announcement and comments : —
On the first of June will be published No . 1 of the Second "Volume . While it will be my study to extend and perfect the improvements whicb , dictated by experience , I have , in some measure effected , I consider it unnecessary to pledge myself to any specific course . The commencement of a new volume will rive a favourable opportunity to my democratic friends to obtain the patronage of new subscribers . The increased means , resulting from such additional patronage , would afford me the
power of carrying out my original intentions , and enable me to make the Democratic Review the efficient representative ofthe democratic party . The time which has elapsed since the publication of the first number of this publication has been a term of disaster and suffering to the soldiers of democracy . The destruction of the Boman Republic , the downfall of Venice , the subjugation of Sioily , the betrayal of Tlungary , the defeat of the Rhenish democrats , the proscription ofthe Italian republicans and their "French brethren ofthe Thirteenth
of June , the massacre ofthe Hungarian chiefs , the cold-blooded murder of the Baden prisoners ; and , at home , the loss of Henry Hetherington , the prisonkilling of the Chartists ' Williams and Sharp , and the sufferings of Ernest Jones , Dr . M'Douall and their comrades in captivity — recorded in this volume—have cast a gloom over its pages . The picture is not , however , all dark . It contains gleams of brightness , giving assurance of the fast coming time" When king , pope , lord , and bourgeois alike shall pass away , And mom shall break , and man awake in the light of a hirer day . " The Pope has returned to Rome , but the voice of Mazzini is pealing through Italy , precursory to the roar of popular revolt . " Order reigns in
Hungary ; but Kossuth yet lives , and the Magyar banner will be again unfurled . Nicholas has gathered his Cossack savages and Bashkir hordes , to the number of 160 , 000 , on the frontiers of Prussia , and strong reinforcements are marching up . Good ! Let them come ; their carcases will serve to manure the soil of Germany—the destined battlefield ofthe two great principles of Democracy and Despotism . The German people are ready for action , and wait hut the signal from the Seine . There the march of social democracy is steadily onward . The moment the red flag flies from the _Tuillories , _farewell—ajastfarewell—throuehoutEurope , to the reign of kingcraft and usury . YIVB LA REPUBL 1 QUE _TJSIYERSELLE DEMOCRATIQUE ET SOCIALE !
The Hand-Book Of Registration, Fyc, $C. ...
The Hand-Book of Registration , _fyc , _$ c . London : Watson . This small , bnt truly valuable , hand-book was published some time last year , by the National "Registration and Election Committee . It contains a compilation of the Beform and- "Registration Acts ; and persons coming within tiie operation of those : laws , and desirous of
becoming electors , will find it an efficient and trustworthy guide . There is no likelihood of the present Parliament lasting seven years ; hence the greater _necessity for this useful work heing placed in the hands of all who have it in their power to make good their claim to he registered . "We understand that the price of this hand-hook has been reduced from threepence to twopence . Chartist committees should see to its circulation .
-Unrepresented Labour. Among The Many Im...
-UNREPRESENTED LABOUR . Among the many important things which deeply affect the interests of the working classes , which advances their social position , which makes __ their comforts more ample , and surrounds them with all the necessities they require—among the many important things which is neglected and lost sight of , is that of not being represented in parliament ; and if the rights of men are not embodied in a man who is in the abstract formed and moulded in the occupations , the wants , the privations , and the lahour of the poor , how i 3 it even possible that their
misery can be in any degree modified ? If capitalists identify themselves with the interests ofthe classes who transmute themselves into gold at any particular time , it is only done so by a figure of speech . Itis only dons on pompous occasions when popularity is to be gained by a forensic display of humanity ia the House of Commons . It is the means to an end , and when the end is gained , the artizan—the labourer of whom they have spoken , is allowed to pass into an oblivion darker than that which traditionally surrounded the dark
ages . The anomaly consists in the producer , the worker , the transmuter of valueless iron-stone into marvels of art by wliich the banker ' s book of the capitalist exhibits a Croesus-like amount of treasure , and the artizen die 3 daily , a haggard wife by his side , losing the human beauty that God gave her , and which touched the young heart of the man years back , and made the solemn yearnings of his love akin to those of the angels—by children with thin pale lips , colourless cheeks , and shrunken frames—theso arc not the modifications of his fate ; they are the conditions of his existence . Besides all this , there is a disgust engendered by a labour that is unappreciated , by a work which becomes mere slavery , by an exhibition of skill , latent genius , what you will , which is quietly ' passed over—the astute master tl
saying , What are you about ? Going to praise my workman ' s skill ? Why , that will spoil the man . He will consider himself a somebody , who is absolutely necessary to rae . To do this , is to subvert the order of things , ' and if you wish to preserve the existing order of things ; ifyou dislike innovations ; ifyou wish to preserve classes in their entirety—that is to say—if you would retain that line of demarcation which exists , and ought to exist between tbe employer and employed , you will leave him alone . " So says the capitalist . " You wish to represent him ? Bah ! What- a crotchet i What a sublime absurdity ! The workman ! Weill he has merely hands and brain , let him be . He has not twenty , forty , sixty , or a hundred thousand pounds to speculate with . " Thus he proceeds , and now believes his argument conclusive .
And then , if men -willsay , " Have- ' _wrfhot representatives of every trading , manufacturing , and commercial town in England V We reply in admittingsuchto be the case by a question , " What interest tfo they represent ?" . .. .. .. ; ' " We do not want delegates from towns and cities to embody their civic dignities . We want trades , and labours , and classes , to sendtbeir . capacitated meii to speak _for'tbeuvbrothera . •• Thoy- are . _soon found , and there " are , plenty of thom ..

A miserable , but well-informed , weaver of Spitalfields , says to the correspondent of the _^& _rniii _< 7 Chronicle that " the primary cause of the depression ofthe prices among the weavers was the . want of the Suffrage . We consider , " he logically argues , _»« that labour is unrepresented tn the House of Commons , and being unrepresented , " the capitalist and the landlord have it all their own way . These words , unstudied , but apropos , are very significant , not of what will be , simply , but Of what must be . It is the pretest of thousands of . men ; and if you were to put it to the vote , to a show of hands , you would
find that the existing order of things is sanctioned by the meanest possible minority . The ill odour which surrounds the false and stinted conventionality reeks around ns . Every acre of inhabited land in England has there a human voice which utters its unheeded protest . By and bye this protest will gather into a thunder . Are the paupers who receive short weight in food represented ? " What absurdity 1 " . people -will cry ; " what next , I wonder ! " Why , the next thing will be that this absurdity will receive grave contemplation , and absurdities far more colossal will be entertained .
Without troubling ourselves with statistics , we ask our readers to calculate , roughly , and to contrast the amount of labour which makes this country rich with the landed , the mercantile , the speculating interests represented in parliament , and we say that it does not amount to' one-fourth the value . There is not an article oi English produce , saving corn and garden stuffs , which without labour and skill of workmen ib worth' as much as its weight in copper . It is the worker who gives value to the amorphous iron-stone , and makes the shapeless multiply its value in a ratio that puts geometrical proportions in the shade . To represent England properly is to represent its working ana suffering classes . When this is done we shall hope to behold tbe advent of a brighter day . —Reynolds's Political Instructor .
The Ten Hours Act. Bradford, Yorkshire.—...
THE TEN HOURS ACT . Bradford , Yorkshire . —In consequence of the appearance of a letter inthe Times of Thursday , April 25 , on this subject , signed '' A Manufacturer , " the Ten flours Bill Committee of the West Riding of Yorkshire have met in . their several localities . At Leeds , onthe same night a meeting , previously called for the purpose of transacting local business , was held , and after considering ' the letter purporting to be from "A Manufacturer , " suggesting the propriety of the operatives sacrificing two hours per week of that leisure which has been conceded to the youthful and iemale portion of our manufacturing population by large maiorities of both Houses of
Parliament , and made the law of the land , that meeting most solemnly and indignantly protested against it " as a mean and shabby proposition , and one which the writer himself is evidently ashamed of , or he might have given his real name , as the propounder of so important a proposition . On Friday night , April 26 th , a meeting was held at Huddersfield , at which a similar resolution or protest was unanimously adopted . At Halifax a similar meeting was held , and which resulted in a condemnation equally strong of the proposition of 44 A Manufacturer . " A large public meeting was also held at Queenshead , near Halifax , where a very strong and unanimous protest against the proposition referred to was adopted . At Bradford , also , the local committee assembled and unanimously adopted a similar resolution and protest , and this day ( Saturday . ) at noon , a special eeneral meeting
of the central committee was held at their room in Hustler ' _s-buildings _, Bradford , which was presided over by the Rev . J . Burnett , LL . D ., vicar , who , in opening the proceedings , stated that the meeting had been called for the purpose of considering the letter whieh appeared in the Times of Thursday , signed "AManufacturer ; " upon which he would not then give an opinion until it had been considered by tbe meeting ; at the same time he could not but express his admiration at the simultaneous manner iu which the local committees had expressed themselves in reference to this letter , as appeared from the correspondence of the secretary , Mr . Balme . Considerable deliberation then followed , which resulted in the unanimous adoption of . -in address to the Times , protesting against the proposal contained in the letter , signed " A Manufacturer .

Great Delegate Meeting In Manchester. Ma...
GREAT DELEGATE MEETING IN MANCHESTER . Maj * chbs-- * _-b , Mondat . —The article which appeared in the Times of Thursday week upon the subject of a letter which appeared in that journal , signed "A Manufacturer , " created the greatest sensation in the manufacturing districts . The local committees in almost every town were immediately called together to consider tbeapparent compromise proposed , and the result was a universal determination never to yield a single moment of the leisure timo which they had obtained by the act of 1847 . The Lancashire Central Committee met on the same night on which tbe letter appeared , and at once determined to call a delegate meeting , which was accordingly held yesterday at the Cotton Tree Tavern , Great Ancoats-street . ¦
Mr . H . Green , of Manchester , was unanimously called to the chair . In opening the business ofthe meeting he said he regretted the necessity of the delegates being again called together , but there was no alternative if they remained firm ip contending for an efficient Ten Hours Act . The meeting had been hurriedly called together in consequence of the appearance in the Times of Thursday week ofa letter , signed "A Manufacturer , " suggesting a compromise in respect to the hours of work in factories and that the operatives should be employed sixty hours a-week , instead of fifty-eight , as protided by the Ten Hours Act . In the same paper there was a leading article on the subject . The chairman also stated that a letter had been received that morning from Lord Ashley which would be brought under tbe consideration of the meeting . Oa behalf of a number of operatives he had to say that the proposition of "A Manufacturer" had been considered by
them , and that if it had been offered some time since they might have been induced to agree to it , but it bad come top late ; and the operatives were determined not to give up one minute of the time which had been conceded to them by the Ten Hours Act . . The names of the delegates present were then called over , when it appeared that the following were present : —Stockport , 2 ; Waterhead Mill , 2 ; Preston , 2 ; Hyde , 1 ; Ashton , 1 ; Hindley , 1 ; Chorley , 1 ; Padiham , 1 ; Droylsden , 1 ; Middleton , 2 ; Blackburn , 1 ; Prestolee , 2 ; Dukinfield , 1 ; Belmont , 1 ; Dewsbury , 1 ; Bolton , 1 ; Enfield , 1 ; Macclesfield ,-1 ; Gorton , 2 ; Ilazelgrove , 1 \ Newton-moor , 1 ; Astley-bridge , 1 ; _Dukinfield-hall , 1 ; Manchester , fine-spinners ; : 1 ; card-room , 1 ; Overlookers ' Association , 2 ; power-loom overlookers , 2 ; local committee , 2 ; central committee , 2 ; Salford spinners . 1 : and Rendleton . 1 .
The Secretary having read the circular convening the meeting , and a letter irom Mr . Grant , regretting his inability to be present at the meeting , aiid solemnly protesting against any compromise , said , when he worked in a cotton mill he thought ten hours work a-day was quite sufficient , not only for women and young persons , but for every one employed in the mill ( hear ); in fact , he was satisfied that ten hours a-day Was quite long enough for anybody either in or out of a mill . ( Hear . ) He would never lend himself in the slightest way to any departure from the Ten Hours Act , for which they had so long contended . ( Hear . )
The letter signed . "AManufacturer , which appeared in the Times of Thursday , and the leading article upon it ; were then read . / ' A Delegate from the local committee asked if there were any letters from London as to who " A Manufacturer" was ? whether the letter was really written by a manufacturer ? The writer might bo " A Manufacturer" for anything they knew at present . The Delegate from Blackburn said , ho believed the letter was written by a manufacturer * aiid he could guess who it was . •¦ - The Delegate froin Manchester said , it struck him that it mattered little who made the proposition , whether the author was a manufacturer or not ; the
proposition had been made— -that was sufficient ; and it had been made in a paper which had stood by ' tho factory : operatives in their struggles for the-Ten Hours Act . The leading article in the Times threw _ouYa suggestion as to , whether there was a possibility of coming to an arrangement or not . The question was ' would they repudiate tho proposition of ' - * A Manufacturer , " or agree to it ? ( Hear ;) The _SBCBEiABr ,-having read . two or three letters _, from the delegates in London , . calling attention to the _letter and the leading article , read the following letter from Lord Ashley , which had been received that ( Sunday ) morning : — XXX \ :: _•;'• •'' ¦ : ' ¦¦ London -April 37 .
: . Sib , —It is desirable that the operatives should learn , as soon as possiWe , the position ofthe Factory Bill . Various _"ttcnjlH ? have been made to dra ! w an effective clause for the prombihonofrelnys ; but wit hout success . A conference has lately heeaield ; between Mr .

The Delegate from Manchester said , there were but few who were not satisfied that Lord Ashley ' s bill would not . be effective . It waB certainly intended to putiteut of the power of manufacturers to follow out the system of relavs and shifts . Now .
from a conversation which had taken place amongst the operatives it was clear that the bill would do no such thing ; it would put an end to shifts , and not _td relays : " ( Hear . ) Now , they wanted an effective Ten Hours Act . If the bill of Lord Ashley would not , if carried , effect the object in view , they must , he would say , introduce now matter ; let them risk getting an effective bill this session , in preference to getting a non-effeotivo bill(—hear , hear)—for if they went on with Lord Ashley ' s bill it would not prove an effective measure , nnd that would place the operatives in this position—that they must apply to Parliament next year for an effeotive bill . And in such circumstances what would ho said of them by Parliament , by the country , and by their
friends ? - It would be said , " You are never satisfied ; you got the bill you wanted . " But let them tell the government and Lord Ashley that they considered the bill now before Parliament not effective , that they were determined to have an effective , bill ' —j [ hear , hear ) ---and he believed the new matter might easily be introduced without Lord Ashley putting himself in a disagreeable position with the house . Lord Ashley could state that his bill ; as at present framed , would not be an effective one without the introduction of new matter , and he might ask the house _permissioa _, to withdraw his _promisenot to introduce ! new matter . Tbeir object was , and ought to be , to have an effective act or run the risk of losing it .
A Delegate of the local committee thought they had better decide the question to consider which they had been called together , and then they . might consider the letter of Lord Ashley . ( Hear , hear . ) A . Delegate from Blackburn thought if Lord Ashley felt himself in a position thathe could not with honour introduce new matter some other member of the house might do so . ( Cheers . ) He was of opinion that there ought to be a clause in the bill specifying the meal hours . The Delegate from Bolton said , he was instructed by . his constituents to discountenance . the proposition of the letter in the Times , and to support any clause that would do away with relays and shifts altogether , and that would give to the factory
workers a bill of fifty-eight hours a week—ten hours a day for five days aud eight hours on Saturday . ( Hear . ) The Delegate from Blackburn moved the first resolution : — " That this meeting having boen rendered necessary by a letter which appeared in the Times of Thursdaj ' last , sighed 'A Manufacturer , ' suggesting to the operatives tho propriety of surrendering two hours per week—the proposition being put in such a way as to call for a prompt and decisive answer from tho faotory operatives throughout the country—we , the delegates here assembled , avail ourselves of the present opportunity to declare to the government , the legislature , and the British public , both for ourselves and those
whom we represent , that we never will submit to anything involving in the slightest degree a departure from the principles of the Ten Hours Act , for which we , the factory workers , have , at an enormous expense , struggled so many years . " The committee at Blackburn were quite astonished on receiving the circular convening that meeting , as they were not prepared for such a proposition as that contained in the _letterpf * . ' . A Manufacturer . " The objectb'f theretter _' _was to creato a division amongst the operatives . ( Hear . ) But let not such a broposition as that cause any division in their ranks . The Blackburn committee said the proposition was not worthy of consideration at all ; that- they would not lose one minute of what had been conceded , but
that they would stick to the Ten Hours Act . ( Hear . ) They must not have division , but unity ; _andTie was sure that the universal feeling of the factory operatlves—menj women , and children—was in favour of the Ten Hours Act . ( Hear . ) He should not wonder If Sir Georgo Grey or Lord John Russell , or some other memberof the government , had employed some one—for Whigs were always meanto write this letter . ( A laugh . ) The Delegate from Bolton said , ho believed tho letterjiad been published in the Time * with the view of causing a division amongst the operatives , who _v-ere now contending for a bill to do away with _relayBand shifs . He believed the individual who wrote the . letter in the Times was dishonest ,
inasmuch as he had not given his name .. The editor of the J fries had in his leading article made a most just comment , but he did not know the parties he had to deal with ; the operatives , however , know with whom they had to deal . ( Hear . ) The operatives of Bolton had come to a determination to stick to the Ten Hours Act , and to a clause for doing away with the relay and shift system . Another delegate from Bolton , two delegates from the local committee , and from Dewsbury , Stockport , Preston , Chorley , Asliton-under-Lyno , Droylsden , Middleton , Enfield , Hindley , Macclesfield , Preston , Gorton , _Prestolee , and Hyde , all stated that they were instructed by . their constituents to declare their determination io stick to an
efficient Ten Hours Act , and " no surrender . " The resolution was then carried unanimously . ' The , delegate from . Chorleymovedthesecond resolution , which was as follows : — ¦' That the delegates from the factory workers of Lancashire ' Yorkshire , and the adjoining counties , deeply regret the necessity for calling this , meeting , to attend which they have , at considerable expense and inconvenience , been obliged to leave their respective districts once more to roiterate their approval of the Ten Hours Act ; and their determination : and that of their constituents never to rest satisfied until that act is fully and fairly carried out according to the intentions of the Legislature which passed it in 1847 . "'" ' :
The delegate from Preston seconded the resolution , which was carried unanimously . The delegates then adjourned for an hour and a half for refreshment . On re-assembling , the letter of Lord Ashley , received that morning , ; was again read by the secretary , and after some discussion the following resolution was carried ' unanimously' * . — " That Lord Ashley be respectfully requested to introduce the clauses agreed to at the Conference ( mentioned in Lord Ashley's letter ) , , or such other matter as will put an end to the relay and shift system and seoure to women and young persons an offioiont Ten Hours Act . "
After the transaction of some routine business the meeting broke up . Similar resolutions . were adopted at a meeting of factory workers held at Todmorden .

Mutton from 'America .- — A vessel which has arrived from New Y 6 rk , _has brought fifty-eight barrels of mutton , as a portion of her cargo consigned , tho produce of ( he United States of America . No previous importation of this description of animal food has taken place from the United States , either in a fresh or salted condition , if we accept some small importations , at uncertain intervals , of hams made from mutton legs , and termed mutton barns ' , and which , not bting smoked and entirely prepared for use as hams , according ; to the common acceptation of the term , have been admitted dutyfree . The present importation of mutton from _Araericn is therefore of some interest and importance . _IIoyai . Palaces . —An interesting Parliamentary
