I am ¦ _tj , _a-tuni : to a _^ onish you , by _telling yon that h ; . ; . _lia _-ive no ri g ht to complain of any one awvance , for _ti " single reason—that you w it ' »• vour power , to-morrow , to separate , _* _t , r . h fr _* jm State ; to make FREE-TRADE

'date ' s return . ! _\ 0 w , observe how this is to be done . Let _$ e . 000 living upon labour divide the bor tmi -li into 40 wards , 200 heads of families _con-. o tating a ward ; tbi 3 would give you 40 _Jsards , with 200 families to each _ _^ A ppoint a ward secretary , and allow the 40 ward secretaries to constitute the CENTRAL _BO-|___ . ¦ . « . ¦*¦ _- — - * - _••• v --U 41 J .

      HOUGH ELECTION COMMITTEE . When ,, _aur machinery is complete , get election l _^ ks ; in each book let the address of your candidate be printed , followed b y a calm and _j-jpectful appeal to the electoral body on his _fehatf . That _appeal should explain how the __ _, oj'keepers , to . whom it is made , live upon vuur wages , and hold the franchise in trust for you . It sliould be written in very plain and simp le language , without the sli ghtest attempt at eloquence or fine writing—written just as I write to you , and should show that a wellpsial labouring community is the soul and life of tlieirtrade . It should combat the foll y that the return of your candidate would in anywise iniiire them ; it should show that Labour ' s

      improved condition would rdievethem from police rales , poor rates , litigation rates , and many other vexatious burdens . That done , let the S ot ) names of wardmen be appended . and let the secretary wait upon the butchers , bakers , _grocers , tobacconists , and corn and bacon , and { ratter and cheese , ' and _^ soap and candle deafers , and say that he has called with a fixed sinl determined resolution , adopted b y those 200 heads of families , not to deal with any shopkeeper who shall not vote for their candidate ; and Ut those shopkeepers who are willing to do justice to themselves and you , am and _pledge to vote for vour man , and DEAL ONLY _TV 1 TH SUCH . Don ' t hold

      out exclusive dealing as a threat , but PRACTICE ITIS A REMEDY . Then mark ! One butcher , one baker , one grocer , one tobacconist _, and one provision-dealer , in each ward , gives you 200 electors . 200 heads of families , 1 will presume , spend 10 s . each amongst those five , or one hundred pounds a week , or £ 20 with each shopkeeper in the week , that is £ 1 , 040 per annum . I know I am much under the mark , as there are over 6 , 000 members in Ihe Weavers * Union alone , and in nine weeks tliey have expended £ 2 , 260 in a strike , while one-tenth of that amount would secure them against strikes . Of course , vou can , unfortunately , command all tlie publicans and beer-shops-and SHUT THEM

      IT-DItY THEM—STARVE THEM OUT , if they refuse to support you . This done , the 200 wardmen are relieved from anv further work , and the BOROUGH _CENTRAL COMMITTEE should meet at least twice a week ; and un each Monday , after work , there should Le a large out-door meeting , to hear reports from the general secretary ; and the best men should he selected to address the people , to show them their power ; and the candidate should be pledged , in writing , to resign his seat when called upon by a majority of a public meeting convened for tbat purpose , and of which ten clear days * notice should be given to him and to the people .

      In Blackburn von have over 2 , 000 of mv " OLD GUARD ' S , " and 4 , 000 of my JUVENILE STATESMEN ; and I WILL GIVE YOU A LOA > OF THEM , as Mr Duneombe said to theWhigs . I wish you to remember that all who were six years old * when I commenced political teaching are now of FULL CHARTER AGE—twenty-one years . Let me now show vou what an united people can effect . Jn 1832 " l 834 . 1837 , and 1841 , the Irish people , iu spite of landlords , parsons , magistrates , Government influence , soldiers and police , returned a majority of Irish members pledged to their princi ples , while ahVEngland can onl y leturn ONE . " Yes , '' you answer , " but what

      a set tbey were !* ' True , I admit it ; but their turpitude does not affect the argument . The reason that Ireland has been so often sold is , because there has existed no vi _** ilant popular control in the country—because the fomentors of strife and _getters-up of _agitcition lived upon popular confidence and popular ignorance . None but members dared to speak , or were privileged to speak , at the -national gatherings , and the }* spoke the language of slaves seeking patronage . If an occasion-privileged stranger spoke out of TUNE tlie organ-master silenced him , and the spellbound dupes hissed him down . No working man ever dared to speak ; and if one ventured to reason , his INSOLENT

      INDEPENDENCE JUSTIFIED HIS DISMISSAL , which was hailed with unanimous applause . Iu Ireland there never has been a popular movement , except in 1823 , when I was obli ged to _ fly my country for -thirteen months to escape the thri 9 at « 9 ned _vengasance of CasUereagb , and hi 1 S 32 , when we would have abolished tithes but for Mr O'Connell , who sold us neck aud crop , had us tried and persecuted , and broken up ; and there never will be a popular movement in Ireland until the Irish people who work are allowed to speak their mind and are REPORTED BY THE PRESS . I

      contend , without fear of contradiction , that the English people are better prepared for liberty than any people , not onl y in Europe but in the world , and I say , with vanity , that 1 have brought them to that state . " The French are -not prepared for liberty , and for this single reason , —because the people have not had the privilege of _meeting and _discussing tlieir grievances , and , bad as Louis Phili ppe is , the Government of the middle classes , th . it will be hailed as a substitute for his , will be , beyond all comparison , a more tyrannical and anti-popular government . The next French change

      _will be effected against A BAD SYSTEM ; "the next English change will be effected for A GOOD SYSTEM . Now , herein is all the difference : an untutored , badly-directed people contend merelv against A BAD SYSTEM ; a tutored . weU-directed peop le contend f _» r A GOOD SYSTEM- The people of E . _'i » land would , NOW , no more tolerate a PHYSICAL REVOLUTION than they would abandon their CHARTER' : and why r

      Jlerause the sound , and tutored , well-directed _-tj-i-id of England sees in its moral power the means uf effecti ng a change , which , if effected hy physical force , would be used by the _nild'lk class as an _on-iims to destroy popular _influ-«*¦•¦' . I have told you a million of times that _discussion is the very main spring of _Jegisla" _* ' '• _*" , and you owe your greatness to that * - _"<• rce DISCUSSION—to every man ' s right _*•? " buseFeargu _? 0 'Coiinor , andjto his ri g ht to _il'iise them in turn- iNow , _ I tell y ou . that even

      > *" . A D This. And Do As It Recommends...

      the American people are not fit for liberty _. and r r , n efit for l _^ erty till thev have established their normal schools and preparatory schools , in which the growing generation learn the true meaning of the term LIBERTY , — until the whole * , people are made to abhor CRUELTY of every sort , and until they are taught the relative position of classes , superiority solely depending upon INDUSTRY , INTEGRITY , and USEFULNESS ; and then honour would be conferred on the virtuous only , and their receipt would stimulate others to deeds of real greatness . I know of no such preparation for the next election as I have described , and , therefore , I know that you

      DON'T WANT THE CHARTER ; and your enemies must naturally believe that you are governed to your TASTE . In Paris , the Reformers , as they fancifully call themselves , have had a grand banquet in honour of electoral reform . We showed them the road ; but the FrenchTEOPLE are not prepared for it . The Swiss have a Republic ; but the lower orders are perfect slaves , and merel y because they allow their SUPERIORS to buy and . sell them . I spent a week in the frontier town of Switzerland . M y landlord had been ten years in England and Scotland , and as I was engagep

      writing a letter from that town ( Chiasso ) to you , I heard a great row , and ran down stairs and found the landlord threshing a great bis * fellow without shoes and stockings . I asked the cause of quarrel , and the landlord said , " You see , sir , there is one law for the RICH and another for the POOR , here as well as in England ; this fellow has been sleeping in my loft , and _lounging ahout here , though he could earn an HONEST LIVING . " " How do you know ? _' * said I . " Why , " said he , " I offered him good wages for SMUGGLING formeacross the Alps ; but he prefers begging . . I shall now call vour attention more fullv to

      what the next Government move will be : it will betheendowmentoftheCuthoIicpriestlioodand the admission of a portion ofthe Catholic prelates to the House of Lords ; in the first instance , such prelates as Archbishop Murray , who can be safely entrusted with the protection of monarchical privileges ; and , mark my words ! he will be as faithful a guardian as the Protestant Bishop of Exeter . In the first experiment the Archbishop of Tuam , Dr M'Hale , will not be admitted to a seat in the Upper House ; but the old system , based upon the union between Church and State , being nearly exploded—the Whigs under Russell , or the Tories under Peel , will look to the

      infusion of new blood and new appliances , and will rely upon the Catholic hierarchy to supply them . There is a gulf between the Catholic hierarchy and the inferior clergy , but the blow will be aimed b y the English Government , the Pope , and the Irish Catholic prelates , and we must be prepared to resist it to the DEATH . Ireland will be prepared , if the people are properl y tutored ; but what I fear is , that the English Treasury will do the work of a

      _DOUBLE-BARRELLEDSTATECHURCH . The Pope requires protection against the Austrian despot , and the English government must have protection against Irish agitation , and the Catholic hierarchy will be enlisted . You must not overlook , or lose sight of , this prospect , nor must you forget that at the REFORMATION , as it is whimsicall y called , when the nation b y a sudden impulse turned from Catholic to Protestant , to gratify the beastl y lust of a beastly king , that , with the exception of about seventy of the inferior clergy , the priests followed the bone , and cliang _*? d religions for the tithes : and

      whatever splutter may now be made , believe me , the BIG DOGS will look for the BIG BONE , and Ireland will be once more diverted from the consideration of its CIVIL RIGHTS by relig ions feuds . Every honest man in the world , whether Catholic or Protestant , isbound toresistthisDOUBLE ADULTERY , this double State-Church communion . God knows one is bad enough , but two would be a double p lague ! Resistance to such a project should be put to every candidate , and should be enforced by every constituency . What I have said of Blackburn applies equally to Halifax /

      Nottingham , Derby , and all other towns ; and yet who will do it ? James Sweet will be the first man in England to set the example , and William Beesley will be apt to follow it . I have done my duty in mapping out the p lan ; you will not have done yours till . you carry it out . No ; you will threaten your power of exclusive dealing , whereas you should COMMENCE it on Saturday night , and Roberts , Jones , M- 'Grath , and scores of others would be sent to the House of Commons to represent you . Men of Halifax . ' will vou do this ? and Jones

      is secure . Men of Leeds ! will you do it ? and Sturge is secure . I beg to acknowledge ONE POUND from a friend , for Sturge ' s election , and I beg to say that if I had a hundred votes I would give them all to Sturge , as he is the very sort of man we want—men who evince courage and boldness in resisting the prejudices of their own order . I hope to hear that after ten years * enforcement of this plan , th _* Jt it is now to be carried out , and then the PRESS will be compelled to notice us , and confess our strength , our union , and our devotion . Ever your faithful Friend , Feargus O'Connor .

      BLACKSTONE-EDGE MEETING . I beg to state , for the satisfaction of those who may suppose me capable of disappointing tbe thousands who met on Sunday , that I was not to blame . I was at Mr Roberts ' s , where I had ari ght to expect the committee to send to me . I remained there till twelve , then went about the town in search of information , then to Mr Roberts ' s chambers , when Mi R . recommended my return to his house—the place appointed for meeting the committee ; there I

      remained till half-past one , when the heavy rain ceased , and I was going over b y cab , when no driver would undertake to drive me there in less than three hours , when the -meeting would he over ; and till ten o ' clock at ni g ht , when I went to the Hall , I never saw a soul belonging to our party , although I had requested , through the Star , that some one would call and inform me of tlie arrangements . 1 am told that such a gathering has not been _s-euiu Eng land since 1239 : that there were

      at least from 50 , 000 to 70 , 000 persons present ; none of whom , I trust , will Uame me for being disappointed , as I was the most disappointed of all . _Fkakgus O'Connor .

      Warrington Tea-Pmty. We Have Seldom Witn...

      WARRINGTON _TEA-PMTY . We have seldom witnessed a more glorious exhibition than our town presented on Monday evening last ; the two factions respectively contending for the honour of being slaves to a Whig Railway Contractor , and a Tory Brewer ; the Whig Free-Trader fig hting the Tory with bis oivn weapons—OPEN HOUSES—to debauch the thoughtless . And here we may mention , that the sum of £ 10 odd was paid to one little _Beer-housa man for Whig knowledge , in one evening ; and yet , though the town was intended to be kept ia a drunken bustle , never was there a more sober , orderiv , and attentive audience than that which crammed the TOWN-HALL on Monday evening .

      The PROGRAMME was as follows ; and ihe several speakers did ample justice to the subjects assigned to thera : "Tea on the table at half-past four , p . m . A variety of airs , & o .,. will be perfome _^ _diiring teaon | he splendid organ , at which Mr ' Kay will preside . After tea the proceedings will be opened by the chairman , W . P . Roberts . E _* q . —Solo organo , Air James Kay . —Feargus O'Connor , Esq .. will then address the meeting —Solo organo , Mr James Kay . —An interval often minutes . Any person -wishing for information , or desirous of asking any question relative to the Land Scheme , by reducing the same to writing and handing it to the chairman , will be answered

      upon the proceedings being resumed . Proposed by Mr Peter Ashton , seconded by Mr Thomas Richardson , ( the two persons who are about to take their departure to the Company ' s Estate , Lowbands ) , and supported by Mr E . Lawless , who will make the statement of the Warrington branch : — 'That this meeting _presentita best thanks to F . O'Connor , - Esq ., for his disinterested services in the cause ofthe people ; also for his kindness in attending this meeting . ' —Solo organo , Mr J . Kay . —F . O'Connor . Esq , will then fake tke chair . Proposed by Mr J . Hargreaves ,

      seconded byMr H . Anderson : —* That the -thanks of this meeting are due , and hereby , given to W . P . Roberts , Esq ., for his prompt kindness in consenting to take the chair upon this occasion . '—Solo organo , Mr James Kay . —W . P . Roberts ,, Esq ., resumes the chair . Proposed by Mr _Lawrinson , seconded by . Mr Taylor : — ' That tbe thanks of this meeting be given toj . I . BIackburne _. Esq ., M . P ., for allowing the use of tho Hail forthe tea party . ' Platform tickets , Is . Cd . each . Refreshments will be provided in the room after tea . —B . _Bnouoooix , Secretary . " .

      Messrs O'Connor and Roberts were met at the station by a large concourse of the working classes , and were escorted through the town in an open carriage , amid the hearty cheers of the populace , and were received in the Hall with several rounds of applause . Mr Anderson , in moving Mr Roberts to the chair , said , that it was an unusual thing to find a Solicitor preferring FAME TO FEE ; however , such , he could state from his own knowledge , was Mr Roberts ' s present position , as he had refused a large fee to attend at Blackburn tbat day , rather than disappoint Messrs LION AND STUBBS . ( Immense cheering . ) After a few appropriate remarks , Mr Roberts was voted to the chair , and a more glorious exhibition of popular feeling we have never

      witnessed on any occasion ; Tbe several speakers acquitted themselves to the satisfaction of the mee t _, ing , but the speeches of Ashton and Richardson , the two allottees about to be located at Lowbands , were particularly touching , from their simple eloquence and real thankfulness . According to the arrangements the chairman invited any person who wished for information to question Mr O'Connor , whereupon a ' person in the body of the Hall asked how a roan could support his family and save £ 100 a year upon four acres , and if Mr O'Connor calculated at the present price of wheat ? Mr O'Connor replied , that he had laid down tbe mode of culture , and that he had only estimated wheat at 50 s . a quarter , not at 100 s . or 120 s . ; potatoes 3 d . a stone , instead ol 3 d . a pound ; and all bv wholesale price .

      A Mr West , a Quaker and manufacturer , who was on the platform , and who appeared to take great interest in the proceedings , requested to be allowed to make an observation , and was loudly cheered . * he said that he knew a cottager who sold the produce of nineteen Cheshire rods , that was just forty statute rods , or a quarter of an aere , for £ 17 12 s ., ( loud cheers)—they were potatoes , and be would have a second crop on the same ground ; and he had now on the platform one pound six ounces of potatoes dug from one stalk , off land that was waste last year , ( cheers , ) and believed much more might be done . After tbe speeches , Mr O'Connor entered into au argumentative " conversation for . a length of time , which _appeared to give unbounded satisfaction when

      Mr Roberts ( upon thanks being proposed to him ) rose , and made a slasher upon the magistrates , whom the people ' s co-operation had driven into retirement ; and upon the TEETOTAL policeman , who would never again break open a poor man ' s box ; and concluded a very eloquent appeal by assuring the meeting , tbat whether in or out of parliament he would always prefer popular fame , honestly earned , to professional gain . The meeting gave several rounds of applause , and Mr O'Connor left for Lowbands , to prosecute his operations .

      I have much pleasure in publishing Mr . Aoklam ' s letter , and thank him for it . —F . 0 . C . Barnsley , July 10 th , 1847 . _Hoxocrkd Sin , —Your letter in this day ' s Star has quite paralysed me . For your satisfaction , I beg to say no earthly consideration , however lucrative , could have prompted me to address the questions contained in the Star . There is not a man connected with our cause that bas a greater regard for your personal welfare , or a higher opinion of the Land Plan , than I have : let my name perish rather than Thomas Acklam act the part of a'Brutus' to

      F . O'C , Esq ., in my opinion , the greatest benefactor of mankind . The subject will ba tftken up to-morrow night by the members of the Land Plan , and the Star will have the rassult of their investigation . Allow me to say , so much do I value my fortunate allotment that I would not take one hundred guineas for my lot . 1 am a practical landsman , and fully believe it is the only means to effect the poor man ' s redemption . Sorry thus to trouble you , and wishing you success in your every effort to bless and emancipate mankind from the miseries of a rattle-box and the fear of a bastile , I remain , Your obedient Servant , To F .

      I have this ( Friday ) morning received a letter from the real "f . A ., of Barnsley , ' who was not Thomas Acklam , apologising for hu of last week , and acknowledging that he wrote the letter , though not a member , but that he and bis friends have since joined . Now , although I approve of all caution before working men risk their money , does net tbis fact prove that most oppesition arises—as I predicted—from non members ? It was wrong in the writer to bave taken the initials of one whom he knew had get his prise from BarnBley , and to whom hia letter would naturally be attributed . Your faithful Friend ,

      Feargus O'Connor . P .

Tha same to my friends of Hanley . I wish Dr M'Douall to send me his address without any delay , as 1 have au important communication to make to him . Thanks to the men of Blackburn for tlieir communication just received—they are ou the

Would to God all working men wore infused with my spirit for a single month , and tho Lar . d would be free ; the rich would be richer ; and _poverty would be a crime , as it could only arise from id ' . eness or dissipation !

      HALIFAX . In ¦ Mother column we have reported at great length an address recentl y delivered by Mr Ernest Jones to the electors and non-electors . Since then a great meeting has been held in Mr Anson ' s hirge room , which was filled to overflowing , and an immense concourse assembled in the yard and streets , and covering tlie roofs of the houses adjoining , Mr Krnest Jones addressed the meeting from the window . . After the lecture several electors pledged their votes in favour of Mr Jones . _, . On Monday evening , July 12 th , according to announcement , a public meeting of non-electors was held in tho Ladney Croft , when Mr . George Webber was unanimously called to the chair . Mr Webber , in an able and effective speeeh , exhorted the people to be firm and united , and they could secure the return of the men of their choice , Messrs Jones and Miall .

      Mr Bowden next addressed the meeting . in his usual energetic style , aud called upon the meeting to use every moral means in their power to secure the return of their favourite candidates . Mr B . Rushton , the West Hiding veteran , _< delivered a powerful speech in favour of Mr Jones , whieh had a great effect on the meeting . Altera vote of thanks to tbe chairman , the vast assemblage , consisting of several thousands of _peoj le , quietly dispersed . On Tuesday evening Mr' Ernest Jones again addressed the electors and non-electors at North-bridge , from Mr Barraclough ' _s garden . Mr Gankroger was called to the chair , and opened tho business of the evening in an energetic and truly eloquent speeeh . Mr Ernest Jones then addressed the meeting at considerable length on the subject of the election . There could not have been less than seven thousand

      present , and altogether such an assemblage has not been witnessed in Halifax for many years . At thc conclusion , three hearty cheers were given for Messrs Jones and Miall , and several electors pledged for Mr Jones . The following address ha ? been extensively published : —

      ADDRESS OF TJIS NON-KLKCTORS 10 TUB _BLTJCTORS OF HALIFAX . Gentlemen , —You are on the eve of a geueral election , and right glad are we that the experience of the last few years of blundering and abortive legislation of your members has opened _youreyos to your true interests . Society is rapidly progressing onwards , and you plainly see it is absolutely necessary that you should select membeis of parliament who will assist the _countiy to remove every obstacle in the way of good and cheap government . Thi * lesson has been hard to learn . The people of England have

      been too long the passive subjects of oppression , without even a chance of bettering their condition . Thank God , this information has at last got abroad , although it has been purchased at an enormous amount of suffering , the condition of the labouring classes being reduced to a state of misery and degradation beyond all precedent , whilst bankruptcy and ruin are banging over the meacanti ' e and trading establishments of the country . Still , we would not encourage a spirit of despair ; we hope tbe united efforts of electors and non-electors may yet obtain such a parliament as will consider the interests of the nation as one and indivisible .

      Several meetings of electors and non-electors have been held in this town , to determine who shall be called upon as candidates fer this place , and it was unanimously agreed that MESSRS JONES AND MIALL were fit and proper persons to discharge the important trust attached to members of parliament ; and if the Liberal electors and dissenters stand to their principles they will be returned . It very seldom happens that objections are not raised against a candidate not being in every point of view suitable to the individual taste and fancy of some elector . It should be remembered that tbey have the vote to exercise forthe benefit of tbe nonelectors ; the vote is not the vote of the electors

      alone , but also the vote of the non-electors ; it is no toy to be played with , no commodity for their private use , nor ought to be disposed of contrary to the wish of the majority ;¦ and . we think the only rational method is to vote for men who will pledge themselves to the advocacy and support of great principles , and the furtherance of measures calculated to ameliorate the condition and advance the general interests ol the country , and who engage to retire from therepresentation at the close of a session whenever a " majority of electors and non-electors think proper ; in tbat case you would not have to be annoyed with their blunders and misdeeds for the long period of seven vears .

      There is one thing we may be assured of , that the choice of candidates for this borough is full as likely to answer your purpose as the choice of many other constituencies . Do we not find them sending foxhunting parsons , mad-blooded soldiers , unprincipled lawyers , horse-racers , gamblers , and some of the veriest harum-scarums that could by possibility be raked together throughout the length and breadth of the land ? lt has been remarked , that thia borough k as rotten & s old Sarum ever was , and this is ab out to be tested at the ensuing election ; it will then be _saen whether the electoral blight has affected dissenters more thau the potato blight the potatoes .

      We deprecate exclusive dealing when brought to bear on persons who conscientiously differ in their political views and opinions ; but we fear there are persons who call themselves Liberals , and Liberal dissenters too—persons in trade , _ and _shopkeeperswl-io will acknowledge they are entrusted with-the franchise in order to obtain the greatest good for the greatest number , who , when they come to vote , will not only discard tbis duty , but vote in direct opposition to their own avowed principles . In all cases of this description , it certainly will be au apology , and indeed can scarcely be considered wrong for persons seeing this , whether they bo electors or _non-olectors , to afterwards make a selection of thoso tradesmen

      who act consistently on general and avowed principles ; for such conduct , we think , cannot fail to win the favour of a discerning public , unless virtue and honesty should be allowed to go unrewarded or unnoticed . We leave you to your choice , as well as those who are inclined to take the crooked path at the election , and claim for ourselves the free exercise of our judgment in the selection ofour tradesmen

      AFTKR TUB ELECTION . The poll book will give ta the names of those who keep their votes in their pockets—of thosej wh _& are induced to abscond into some skulking hole till the election is over—of those who remain at heme under some sham illness , as well as those who ptanp er split their votes in opposition to their _provi-jus opinions . All true Liberals and Dissenters will feel obliged to vote for those who will support their , cause . They cannot in justice give their vote to . one who in parliament would oppose their just claims , and even trample to extinction their r ' . ahts and liberties .

      Shrink not , then , from this _avowed advocacy of your prineiple *; your causa is holv and claims your attention . __ Religious freedom r . an only be secured by the establishment of wise _institutions , and a general support of civil liberty r . liberty dwells with the millions , tyranny with tb . e few , in all nations . Strive , then , to get mwaberj who will , as far as in them lies , obtain the greatest good for the greatest number , for such men are . the _keepers and the only good security ef property , _liberty , and every thing valuable on earth . Suffer * _ . ot the stand-still policy of the W higs , nor tha calls ' inr backward-movements ofthe Tories , to draw yov . from the path of duty .

      A few . moments' reflection will convince all _electors who wish to progress with the people , that they _conupfc vote for the present members , nor can tliey , with any consistency , split their votes between them and a new candidate , for this would neutralize their vote , and make the election a nonentity ; therefore . he honest and _straightforward course will be to stick to MESSRS JONES AiND MIALL through evil and through good report , whether we win or not . Discharge the duty reposed in you faichfull y , aud if you fail in the attainmeut of your wishes , you cm _rcijire

      Mr Hardy has issued an address to the elector ' s in which his expresses _humseH as decidedly " opposed toall national or state-made religions . " lie is also opposed to the government interference with the education ofthe people , for reasons which he states at length . He adds : — 1 shall oppose all wars , or preparations for war , as an unmixed evil . I am opposed to monopolies , ' such as the law of primogeniture , the law of entail , and any other which gives one set of men preference over others when their claims are equally just . The game-laws , that sourco of iniquity and nursery for crime , I shall do all in my power to destroy . I am in favour of esteudin _** the suffrage to every man of _twenty-one _yenrs of age , who has not been found guilty of crime by a jury of his countrymen . I shall vate for the repeal of the laws which tax the light of the sun , the air we breathe , and those articles of consumption sent by Providence for the benefit of mankind .

      In conclusion , Mr Hardy declares that he will not _eanvas 3 the electors , but will meet thetn forthe purpose of answering any question they may put to bim . Nor will ho appoint any committees or agents , " which , " says Mr Hardy , " I consider is tlie electors business and sot mine . "

A ve i i" !\' cr us _meetinj ? of the working classes washed at the Literary and _Scientiho"tostitution , John . _street , 1 _ottenham-court-vcad , on Tuesday evening , July 33 th . ' Mr John "Wiuxiub , ono of the churchwardens for the parish o Marylebone , was called to the _ehair , and said he had _alw-vys regretted the franchise was so limited . He looked forward to the time-not distant when every man of twenty-one * . ears of- age would exercu-e the franchise , and when _i the honest man would be protected by the Ballot . Ho uwheart and soul for every point o f the People ' s Charier . ( Immense and repeated cheering . ) He had advooated those _pviraciplea in timt 3 of danger , lib had lived down all his enemies , and lind obtained ! a position for hiniBelf , and was now willing to devote the rest of his days tothe service of the people .- ( _ilmmensB applause . ) _jfr Thi mas Ciark , amidst much cheering , submitted the following resolution : —

      That , in the _opinion of this meeting , no (• -tndidate for parliamentary hoaours is entitled to the support of the working ; classes who will not pledge himself tn make the enfranchisement ofthe whole male adult population ofthe empire the primary object of his mission . Mr Clark said he had only heard one of the _caifdidates for that borough , namely , SirB . IiaJl , andhv did not exactly know how far he would go , as regards * the Suffrage , but he believed one of their- candidates had declared for Universal Suffrage . _^( tLoud cheers , ) and it was thelrduty to _suoport him . Evcn > the nonelectors had great influence , and he involied them to > USB it unsparingly for Universal Enfrancbisement . He understood that there was a small _sooiaty in thu » borough called the " Reform Registration _Associu _* tion , " who had taken upon themselves-to say wh » should , and who should no tbe candidates . ( Hear

      , , hear . ) He only regretted that the Universal Suffrage candidate had consented to be bound by the decision of this body .. He looked at this-proceeding as being wrong in principle , depriving as it did large bodies of the people of the exercise of thr franchise . ( Hear , hear . ) They had got ? rid of on * Whig placeman from that borough , let- _thsm taki care _anothrr was not palmed _upsn them-.. The way to prevent this was to canvass every street in the borough , in favour ofthe man who advocated the great principle contained in the resolution ! which he now had the honour to submit . ( Loud _chesrs . ) Julian _Uarnet seconded the resolution in a power * ful speech , in the course of which he strongly urged that no candidate should receive popular support who would not give a written pledge-to battle for the Charter in the House of Commons .

      Mr P . M'Grath in rising to support the-resolution said , he saw their friend Richard Oastler present ; he should much like to see him eome forward , and receive tbat reception which such a good ; generous , and virtuous philanthropist so justly , deserved . Mr Oastler rose in the body of the meeting , and was greeted with the most vehement cheering , and . said he had come there simply as . *** mere listener , and hence he preferred remaining where " ae was . He had just heard from Mr Harney that Democracy would not establish tyranny , and he was-determined to . "how that Democracy should not tyrannise over a " King , " by _drags-ing him to the platform , ( Loud laughter and applause . ) Mr M'Grath resumed : He thought it our duty to send as many as possible to represent Chartist principles in the Commons' House of Parliament * , and if any man _pi-Qsented himself to their notice who wns _atrnid to avow himself the

      advocate of the rights ot tho , working classes , why , ia the language of Mr Harney , it was their duty to tell him to go about his business ,, for most certain it was that tit y would effect no good until such time * ns they had men to represent them who , like their honourable chairman , would go "the whole hog . " ( Loud cheers . ) The Whigs were again supplicants for their suffrage . " , and they would _pr-eaiise anything , but in such a way that no one could _understand them . ( Hear , hear . ) He advised tlte electors to pledge their candidates for an entire separation of Church _, and State , ( loud cheers , ) but never to forget that the great point was the Suffrage . lie was informed that one of their candidates , MrD . W . Harvey , would vote for the Charter , whole and entire , like their worthy chairman , and hence it was their duty to use * all the influence they possessed to ensure _hi- » election _. The resolution was then unanimously' adopted . Mr _IIuraRT Hetherixgion rose to move the followhi 2 resolution * . —

      That Mr D . W . Harvey , the People ' s candidate for the borough of Marylebone , possesses iu an eminent degree talents and z «> al , perseverance and courage ; and , above all , the disposition to devote tbeso great qualities _, to ihe amelioration and improvemfiat of eur political and social institutions ; and , as thc electors cun demonstrate his fidelity to the popular causa hy an appeal tohis past parliamentary services ,. t _* at » _meetin- _* , believing-Mm . to "be a most _cSciimt _defender oi the I ' _top i e's rights * _, pledge themselves to use their bo-it tfforts to _seeure biaelection .. Mr _IIsthebisgiox said he had known Mr Harvey for many years . He had stood by the working classesin the days of their persecution , and hence he thought it their bounden- duty to support him . ( Cheers . ) Lord Dudley Stuart had declared the Suffrase was a privilege , thai Game-laws were

      necessary to induce noble lord ' s to visit the country , and he _would'uphold the Established Church in its m tegrity . Mr Harvey had , stood by them and given good counsel , which had led them on to success in . their _battla against the foarpenny stamp on newspapers , ( Loud cheers , ) and he wns an avowed advocate of IlTnivcrsal Suffrage . ( Cheers . ) lie hadi fought a great and successful battle against the _aoominaWe system of Exchaqperprocesses ; _hebadl-udt bare the enormous amount of taxes wrung fromthe * agricultural labourer and his family , andwas a strenuous advocate for the-abolition ot indirect taxation . MrHetherington having made . an eloquent appeal to tho friends present to attend the Colosseujui oa Mondhy next and ballot for Daniel Whittle Harvey _,, concluded by moving , his resolution , and resumed bis _seailoudlyapplaudedi *

      Mr John SAVAe ** ,. seaot * ded the resolution . Julian _IIarnk-s , _aske-aS whether Mr Harvey had published an address - . and if so , did he in that address avow himself the advocate of _Universal Suffrage ? In reply , both the chairman and Mr _Hcyierington admitted _tki-kno such address had bcen _. _gublished , but both attssted that , at certain meotiEgs-thoy had heard Mr Harvey , declare himself _foiy Universal Suffrage . Juliax _HaiRM- * * * _ssicl he for one was . _noi satisfied to buy a . gig in a poke , and , in tho absaiice of _Mrllai'vey » lie was not content to _receive tbe testimony of thai gentltiftan ' s godfathers and godmothers . He , tlWfor _* . _' . submitted the following amendment :

      That this meeting having heard _fram the friends of Mr Daniel Whittle Harvey , one of tha- _diml'datis for the borough of Hajjylebone , that _hu is . _wilting , if elected , to su _>_ ) ort in Parliament the principla of Universal Suffrage , together with the other _nccessar _, _* , adjuncts contained in tbe Paople ' s Charter , considers that ' gentleman worthy < _jf popular support , providtd he . wi | l ; _give » written pledget to the effeci ihat ho will supyort- if ! the House of Com * mons the full and fair _rejnesentation of every adulit male * , and that ho will _fwither , pledge himself to meei tho constituency of _Marylsbone atthe close of every _scansion , to render an account of his stewardship , andres _% a his trust , if _callidupo- * , to do so by a _majority ofthe electors and _iion-ekel »* _-s , infi ; eoaud open public _cfcsat . ing assembled ,
