In the _*& time , I do consider myself justified in s _Shiir the real crime of which Bernard _Sw has been gailty—it is _this—Dotft , La emanci pated from his prison , attempted _Jmatc a pecuniary , and not a national profit
f his martyrdom . He abandoned _tne policy _« Mch before incarceration he advocated ; he Wed the party that he had led on to fury _J _^ _eusabd FuLLAifS crime was , that , in L Tery teeth of danger , when the law ' s _^ _p _rth and power was _««* ahle of branding _^ _ian as a aimlnal _. _Tieboldly filled up the gj _» and rushed to the rescue of his country . -1 am _something of a physiognomist , and yon _Aotid see those two men , to enable yon to - _njj _£ e of _tbeir courage and their intellect .
Wfjt perfectly resembles a hedgehog _standjsjen his hind legs , while Fullam looks like a _^ ae e eck spurred for the pit ; in fact , it is as _| aeh froinmy personal knowledge of Fullam , a ? from the boldness with which his paper is _cadntfed , that I have formed my opinion of _laai , _jbe '" "Irishman" is a thorough _representative of Democracy . The "Nation' is a _jEjiKflish representativeof the breeches pocket ; 233 , alas , how disheartening it must he to Irishmen , and to Englishmen too , to find two p ass professing to represent liberal
principles , p laced in such dire antagonism . For my osn part , I read the "Irishman , " and I _ahnire it ; and I hope that every working jan in England , who can afford to buy it , will & likewise , and I will not occupy more of xm time , or insult Bernard Fdiiam , by father commenting upon the disgusting and _ticking abuse of the " _Nation . " The _"Ration" hopes to represent the pockets of £ _jsbopocracy ; the "Irishman" the interests {• the toiling millions , and I trust that its crengih , backed by your strength—will beat Ism all opposition .
Xow I come to discuss the question of Jsgfeh consistency and gratitude , and I don't jEak I can furnish you with a stronger proof ef English ingratitude , though I trust it does jst spring from your order , than the following sport of a meeting recently held in Finsbnry _? ill supply . Just read this report , and cast par eye back upon the amount of labour , of slavery , and toil , that _Duxcojibe has _( _kroicil to your cause , and then think of the
gatitude of those in whose service he ruined is constitution , and destroyed his health , to 33 extent which compelled him for a time to abandon those labours . Does not the fact pore the gratitude of those in whose service he exhausted his health ? Do you remember—Then Chartism was persecuted and prosecuted and reviled by all—how Duxcombe joined war ranks at Aberdeen , took out his card , and paid his guinea ? Do the Trades remem ter the amount of labour he devoted to their
_srlce , and are they as ungrateful as the immaculate electors of Finsbnry ? Wakley , too , £ a good and sincere friend of the people , and _snadvocate for the Charter , and he also has feu prevented from attending his parliamentary duties by ill health ; however , here follows fe gratitude of those in whose cause both ihese representatives have suffered . Ir e _TxEfdsanssos of _FixsuCHr . —On Tuesday evening _ssse & g of several electors of the borough of * Finsbnry _esheld , at the Kent Hotel , _Brownlow-strect , Holborn , 'totake into consideration resolutions _agreed to _atapreossmestiiK , held on _tbeSrd inst , in reference to the
confat ef she representatives of the borough , for the pnrpose cfennkg a committee to carry ont the resolutions in _rebate to the said subject * 3 £ r . Griffin , barrister-at-law a Us clair . Mr . J . R . Taylor , of St . Andrew , Hollas _, proposed the first resolution : — " That serious and _Gsat considerations render it highly desirable that the _Rsshitieiis . agreed to at the meeting held at the above _isi ca the 3 rd inst ., be carried out with aU possible _fefitru . ' The resolutions tvere to the effect that any repsaatative-nho is rendered incapable of discharging his fas _ia Parliament , should forthwith resign into the fads of his constituents a trust , which circumstances _psvist him from retaining- either for their advantage or _feis own credit , and that T . S . Buncombe , Esq ., and T . _'fcHev , Esq ., be respectfully requested to explain their
_xsoas for not attending the recent debates upon the _sjjsii that materially affect the interests of the public H _lan-e _, and those of the inhabitants of the metrspo _& ffl districts in particular . Mr . _Folsford seconded the _isdnjon _, which was put by the chairman and agreed to _jffinnnously . Two oilier resolutions were also adopted , _"Kiinere _' in effect 'that a committee be appointed to cere oat the foregoing resolution , and that after the com-I sit appointed shall have communicated on the part K Casana the former meeting ' with the representatives of _Sslwoagh _. and having respectfully stated to them the _gipc'rtofthe resolutions referred to , the result be made _« _wa _without delay to a public meeting to be called for _^ _tparjiuse . ' The _' committee was appointed and thanks *<« voted to the chairman , and the meeting separated at afatehefur .
% friends , the only answer that I shall _st _fempi to g ive to the above resolutions is , _& it let them do what they like in public _erases , and holes-and-corners , they shall _fce that the feelings expressed there do not represent the feelings that will be expressed at J * proposed public meeting , if they dare to fold oEe : as I trust , that when due notice _^ given of such a meeting , every locality in wmdon will let the Finsbnry clique understand , that Duxcomee and "Wakley not only _present Finsbnry , but London . For my own
J _* _rt _» I will attend and test the sincerity of _Jte _working classes , a 3 I do not consider it J _^ tor honourable that the past services of one _f olios exhausted his health in the people ' s _^ e » should be forgotten , or slightly treated _, _^ u now let me inform the Finsbnry coves , _^ oare , no doubt , enlisted in the service of _** ie expectant M . P ., thatMr . _Dtjxcombe has Jen mi the House several nights till twelve _« ock this session , and that upon many _oceans I have besought and implored of him not , emainin an atmosphere that was sure to his
_^ _tnage health , and impede his recovery . _•» at let them hold their meeting , and they _^ all see that _Duscombe _' s _shadow—sur-* j 2 ndcd by * u * strength—will overshadow all _^ u : infernal rnachinations . Is it not enough : _' drive a man mad when he reflects upon such _^ H _^ atitudfc ? Here is an upright and _indecent representative , who _haa devoted his _T _^ tli aad his time to the people ' s cause , and : ! * that that health has been impaired in _**& service , they would abandon him . 2 so _^ of this subject for the present . I shall _^ clad . e it bv expressing a hope , that if the _Reposed meetineshould beheld , Dpxcomce ' s

evening of the . 7 th ; and I will allow the committeeto nametwo other places of meeting in the neighbourhood of Glasgow—but not at too great a distance—for the 8 th and 9 th—and I will attoaathe Edinburgh Conference on the 10 th ; and , previous to that time , I shall give notice of the days that I shall be in Carlisle , Newcastle , and other parts of _theiNbrth ; and I trust that the cannie men of _Scotland will be prepared to propound a plan by which both their , countryj England , and my country , can be emancipated . I trust that their policy will he such as tpdestroy all antagonism , and cement a new arid firm union . _eveninff of the _vfch ; and T will allow _?!»> _enni .
My friends of "Aberdeen , and several other places , ask me if I have any objection to be appointed , as one of the Executive of the new Chartist Association . I cannot understand the grounds upon ; which they could base the presumption that I could object to fill any office whereby my services were calculated to confer a benefit upon their order _; and , therefore , I answer their question distinctly—that I have not the slightest , objection to jive my gratuit tons services a 3 an unpaid member of . the Executive ; anj j _^ l _^^^ o _^ jth _^« _i-proud ( to learn , ' _thafrthe _^ personal antagonism in the Metropolis has not round its way into the Provinces ; and my friends may rest assured , that I will do all in my power to allay it . I understand that the meeting at Jolm-street on Tuesday night
last , was much more harmonious than those recently held ; and 1 was . happy to learn that Mr . _Hetxolds , and others , repudiated antagonism , and recommended harmony and union . You are also aware that the antagonism of your own order has been the greatest antagonism against which I have had to contend ; and that the "Northern Star" —contrary to my wish or inclination—has been made the organ for creating , circulating , and perpetuating that antagonism—a course , however , which has now ceased , and shall never again be revived ; and I give you the three following letters from Brighton , Stockport , andMerthyr Tydvil , as proof of the anxiety that this antagonism has created ; and they are but samples of a sack full that I have received from all parts of tbe country : —
1 , Peter-street . Brighton , 3 _Tay 14 th . Deis Sib , —At the weeWy meeting of the National Charter Association held last night ( Monday ) , I was desired to write and cspress unfeigned regret at the several letters that have appeared in the _NorVieru Star for the last few weeks and the injury likely to be caused in the Chartist body generally , and hope jou will abide firmly to the resolution yoa have made , that nothing more of the like nature shall appear . With the kindest regards from all parties , and sincere hope that your health is fully established , I ani , yours most resp _' ectfully , To F . O'Connor , Esq ., SLP . Wji . Kent , Sec .

JlerthyrTyihn , May 12 th . Deae Father , —I address yeu as a father , because that you have been the ' only individual , that I know of , now existing iu this country , that has devoted his whole life-time , including the whole of your property , to the political elevation of my fellow workmen ; and , doubtless , if every two men of the proletarian family , had exerted themselves with such a degree of true sincerity for their emancipation , as what yon have done for them , we , as a nation , would , ere long , be free . Bnt , alas ! the enemy of liberty has often thrown among us the apple of discord , merely ( if I may express my opinion ) to get up new movements , so as to attract or misdirect the people , to satisfy their own ambition—that is , with the view . of destroying or curbing the influence of the people ' s best and most sincere leaders—vea ,
even _yonr own influence—and with deep regret , dear father , I have found that even you , your-own self , have permitted those new propagandists to use your only organ , for the before-mentioned purpose , not intentionally on yonr part , but the more so under the influence of too much liberality . 3 fow , dear sir , I implore you Dot to allow such things as party bickering to be printed in your paper , ths Xorthern Star , for the luture , as , you may depend upon it , that such things have done more , and rail do more , to retard the progress of those principles , the People ' s Char ter , than all the coercive enactments of either Tory or _HTiigdeviKsm . Dear father , it is from past and present experience that I am influenced to write these few lines to you , praying that you will for the future discountenance such proceedings , and that you will hold steadfastly to your old motto : ' Onward and we conquer ,
Backward and we falL ' Now . dear father , I shall leave by expressing these few words to you ;; that I am neither en Harneyite , Clarkife , nor any other ite , but that 1 am a man for union , to gain our _priaciples by burying in oblivion all party strife , and to attain that object , the establishment of a truly democratic government , by fair and moral means . Hoping that these few remarks , coming from a working man , will not be considered worthless and ill timed , and any errors which I may have committed , will be attributed to an improper education , and not from an ill motive . I remain , Sir , Your affectionate political son , Isaac Junes _Tcoles . AChwtistfor some years , and a four-acre paid up member of the Land Company . To P . O'Connor , Esq ., M .

Sib , —You will much oblige the sterling Chartists of this town if you will favour them with a visit on yonr tour through England . 2 fr . Hows lectured here on Sunday evening last to a large and attentive audience . After the lecture , a female rose , and said , she thought the council had not done their duty by not inviting Mr . O'Connor to pay a visit on his tour , she should move that we did . Jlr . Middleton came forward , and said , he was glad to hear a motion ot that sort made by a female ; for he himself would like to see him once more . ( Loud cries of ' we all should , send for him , and he will come . 'J Jlr . _Jliddle ton said , there was not a gentleman living that could stand the abuse that our faithful and unchangeable friend , 3 Ir . O'Connor , iLl \ , could . ( Cries of' Hear , hear , and great applause . ' ) C . CiTT £ , Secretary . To Feargus O'Connor , Esq ., MX
In answer to the ahove letters , I heg to assure the writers , and thepuhlic generally , that I will sternly adhere to my resolution of last week , and that the " _^ Northern Star" shall never again he made the organ of personal antagonism . I do think , as I expressed myself before , that Mr . Harney's first comment upon Mr . Clark did not justify Mr . Clark ' s attack upon him , which , as I told Mr . Clark , was uncalled for , and too ferocious , hut siuce then I think both have had ample space in the " Star" to allow the people themselves , as jurors , to give their verdict . I have just received the copy of a long letter from Mr . Harney in answer to Mr . Clark ' s of last week , hut 3 have forhid its insertion , as it would naturally lead to further antagonism , and here the matter shall end ; while Mr . Harxey shall he at perfect liberty * to express his sentiments upon
politics of every description , as my principle is to allow fair scope for the discussion of all principles , hut not for personal antagonism ; and lest Mr . _Harney should presume that my allusion to Mr . Hill and Mr . Hobson , in a late "Star , " had any , the slightest , reference to him , I heg to disabuse him , if he entertained any such notion . He must , however , understand the damage that personal antagonism inflicts upon the principles which he advocates ; and , in conclusion , let me inform him , that I have never sanctioned any abuse of him , nor ever will , so long as he adheres to the principles of the People ' s Charter . _Jfo \ v , my friends , I trust that I have said enough to convince you of the propriety of the course I have adopted , and to convince Mr . Harney and Mr . Clark , that they have had abundant space in the "Star" to express their sentiments .
I have received a letter from Gorgie Mills , inviting me to attend a meeting there when at Edinburgh , and in answer I beg to say , that I will cheerfully comply with their request I have also received letters from Bristol and other places , inviting me to meetings , the days for which I will give notice . Now , my friends , and brother Chartists , let me implore of you , in the name of all that is sacred , just , and humane , to abandon all personal animosity and antagonism , and once more to raise the old _standacd , and unfurl tho old banner , with the old motto : —

) Mr . Brown seconded-the motion , - and said , all classes must be represented before justice , could prevail . At _present'th ' ey had " pimps and plunderers rewarded , whilst useful . Ingenious artisans-were left to pine m want and misery . Another abuse was the individualising of land ; this was amonster error , and he could " not see the- realisation of any benefits until the sovereignty of the people prevailed . ( Loud cheers . ) , Mr . Jobs _Ddwuko believed that universal suffrage was the great lever , and Napoleon the little seemed to . be aware of it , as he was using his best _endeavours to annihilate" U . ' ( Hear . ) He' thou ' eht ifit was worth having it was-worth struggling foi , Ihgbad been battling for it , * with- h « >! friend _Stalfc wood , since 1 SG 9 , and still stood firm for the Bix
points . He had no faith in the Political and Financial Eeformers . Although tho bigots , Stafford and Arundel , refused secular education , yet the time would come when the working classes would enforce it . . _ffis friend Stallwood had very properly said that , dukes , lords , and capitalists , niigbt say what they would , and were not called traitors , but if working men spoke above a breath it was rank sedition and treason . ( Cheers . ) Let them stick to the suffrage and get the Charter , and the rest would follow . ( Cheers . ) Mr . Lasoah , in support of the resolution , said , he he was contending for political rights as a means to social privileges . ( Cheers . ) He looked on annual parliaments as an important _^ int , as he thought one year was quite long enough to . rule wrong ; and he believed at the time the parliament took oh itself to alter its duration from annual to
triennial , and from triennial to septennial parliaments , it must have had in its mind hereditary rule . ( Cheers . ) He thought it wisdom to point the people ' s attention to social rights , in order that they might properly apply the suffrage when they obtained it . ( Loud cheers . ) A , Person asked how France , having , under Napoleon , possessed four hundred schools , could be ignorant ? The Chairman * , in reply , said , it was not the number of schools , but what was taught in the schools . In England we had a great number of schools , but it would be perhaps better that the people should be left untaught , than bo so wrongly educated as they were . ( Loud cheers . )
Mr . T . Brows supported the resolution , and recommended Tracts as a good means of propagandism . The resolution was then put , and carried unanimously . A vote of thanks was given to the Chairman , and the meeting separated .
Great Meeting At The Literary And - Scie...
GREAT MEETING AT THE LITERARY AND - SCIENTIFIC INSTITUTION , JOHN-STREET , F 1 TZR 0 Y-SQUARE . This series of meetings , convened by tbe Provisional Committee of the National Charter Associa ( ioD , still continue to attract with unabated success . On Tuesday evening , May 14 th , Mr . John Aenott was called to the chair , and said : —This meeting was convened _< pr the purpose of reviewing the proceedings of the late Protectionist meeting , held at the Whittington Club Rooms , over which the Duke of Richmond presided . ; not that they were opposed to cheap loaves , but that they conceived that bread , or any other article , was only cheap when they possessed the means of obtaining ii readily . ( Cheers ;) 1
Mr . G . TV . MI Reynolds cameforward , loudly applauded , to move the following resolution : — 'That this meeting is of opinion that political rights , as claimed in the People ' s Charter , are necessary to protect the producers against the united oppression of landlords and capitalists , and the establishment and maintenance of the social rights of the whole people . ' Mr . Reynolds said , they were not Protectionists in the sense implied by tbe Duke of Richmond and Mr . Disraeli , but they wished political rights to protect themselves against the avarice and grinding tyranny of both capitalist and landlord-- ( cheers)—such protection Chartism would yield , if properly applied . He would not give a fig
for Chartism unless as a means of putting the people in possession of social rights . ( Cheers . ) The speakers at the late Whittington Club Protectionist meeting , had made use of strong semi-treasonable language , going the length of declaring that they were ready to fight ; but had they heard that the Attorney-General had caused them to appear at Bon-street ? Oh no . Yet their honest , enthusiastic friend , Ernest Jones —( great cheering)—was still in _Tothill-fields Prison . They prosecuted Chartists for things that were mild , as compared with what these gentlemen had uttered . Several Chartists were still in prison , whilst no Bill of Indictment had
been , or was likely to be , preferred against the heroes of the Whittington Club Rooms . Who was Mr . Disraeli , the present adopted leader of the Protec tionists ? First , tbey heard of him as a naming RaJical—a kid-gloved and whife-waistcoated onein this line he did not obtain power and distinction sufficient for his appetite ; next , they found him flourishing under the party of Lord Lyndhurst _, but here he failed to get the ambassadorship to Madrid ; and , consequently , they next found him gone over to the Protectionists , under the late Lord George Bentinck . Since that nobleman ' s death , he had become leader of the Protectionist section of
conservatives . Mr . Disraeli made fine speeches , ont they were laboured concoctions , written and delivered , parrot-like , by heart . He said this positively ; when an habitue of the reporters '" gallery , he had seen the written copy put , by a servant , into a reporter ' s hands for the press . ( Hear , hear . ) Mr . Reynolds then traced the parentage , « tc , of the ancestors of the Duke of Richmond , the hero of the Whittington Club , to the beautiful Duchess of Portsmouth and the libidious Charles II ., and showed how the miners were taxed to support this scion of barred royal lineage . In the days of George III ., it appeared that the taxes so wrung amounted to _£ 19 , 000 per annum ; but this open profligacy being
I strongly denounced at this time , property in the fund : _^• as bought of the like value in lieu of the amount wrung from the miners , which was enjoyed by the Richmond family down to the present period ; but , be said , such flagitious acts ought to be denounced from every platform . ( Cheers . ) The Duke ol Richmond said he was an ill-used man . He thought any honest moral working man would blush to own such a parentage . ( Hear . ) It was the duty of the people to come forward , and show the iccon fidence in the Provisional Committee , by joining the National Charter Association . ( Cheers . ) The people did exhibit a growing intelligence in attending their meetings in such large numbers , and if
they continued their system of propagation they must speedily obtain those rights which bad been so ltfhg withheld , and then they would wonder that tbey had remained so long enslaved . ( Cheers . ) It was for the people , to judge who were the advocates of their principles , who were guided by pare principle—and who from love of place and salary ? ( Applause . ) He had been denounced for coming amongst them and boldly standing forward the advocate of social rights , but he was prepared to risk personal friendships by so doing , as" it was his honest conviction that the Charter was a mere abstract of rights , and that it was only beneficial as a vehicle
for obtaining social rights . ( Cheers . ) It appeared a quarrel was attempted to be fastened on him , but he never would be a party to bickerings , which could only tend to injure and retard the obtainment of the rights of the people ; he would rather do anything than cause the working classes to be split up into contending sections . He did not aspire to leadership ; he defied any one to put their finger on a single line of his , or a word in a speech , that _wauld indicate the least sign or wish for leadership on his behalf . The Chartists bad a Provisional Committee , with whose acts they appeared pleased , and he trusted the committee would I continue to deserve , and the People to patronise

—yet , how many of these gentlemen , Parliamentary and Financialists had , on the platforms , declared themselves Chartists ? He admitted be was gulled by these specious declarations for a time , but the submitting of his resolutions had removed the mist from his eyes , and it would appear from the eyes of other persons _tso , for the men' of Aberdeen had sent up a report setting forth that they had carried an amendment , by a triumphant majority , at a Parliamentary and Financial Reform meeting . ( Cheers . ) If the people only did their duty , they would not be troubled with such humbugs as Richmond and Disraeli , but they must _csntinue their exertions until they had obtained the Charter , and had applied it to its proper purpose ; then , indeed , they might boast , of being amongst-the noblest and freest people on the face of the earth . ( Tremendous cheering . )
Mr . Charms Utting , in seconding the . resolution said : —Mr . Reynolds had very properly stated , that if working men had made such speeches as was made at that Protectionist meeting they would now be the inmates of a prison . Ernest Jones , Bezer , Vernon , Fussell and others , had suffered long imprisonments for uttering language mild as new milk when compared with that spoken by these Protectionists . ( Hear , hear . ) Theirs was not constructive , but open treason . ' . They would protect the Queen , if she would protect . them ; ' and if they did not get proteclion they would 'fight for it ;' and further , that they had ' nine-tenths of the horses in the kingdom , ' and they < could find men to ride them . ' Yet these men were not in prison ; then was it not time , they asked , why such a distinction was made between the treatment of Chartists and
Protectionists ? He ( Mr . Utting ) was a Free Trader . ( Hisses and cheers . ) There was a great- difference between competition and free trade . ( ' No , no . ' ) Why , competition existed before free trade was known ; and , he thought , when they obtained the rights laid down in the Charter , they should have free trade with all the world , and that it would be beneficial . He had always advocated Socialism , as he desired ta see a fair day ' s pay given for a fair day ' s work —( cries of 'That ' s very indefinite' )—well , he wished to see all that worked have au equal quantity of hours and an equal amount of wage ; , whether they were watchmakers or labourers . He had much pleasure in seconding the resolution .
Mr , _Bz-ackmore , in support of the resolution , said he differed in some respects with Mr . Utting ; He ( Mr . Blackmore ) had , for a number of years , both in town and country , supported the _cause _^ of Cb _^ _rthrafyfl _^ _'walc h _^ of the Provisional Committee , and was much pleased with its conduct , and had testified his approbation by taking out a card of membership , ( Loud cheers . ) He attributed to petty jealousies the cause of imprisonment of many of our best men , such aa Ernest Jones ; but he believed Ernest Jones would emerge from his prison the beloved and respected man of the people . He would refer them to Mr . Bright ' s speech on the bakers' question , and be would particularly request Scotchmen ' s attention to
it . This showed that Free Traders were no friends to the cause of labour . He would unite cordially with the movers in his trade—the bakers—against such free trade inhumanity . It was of no use going to parliament on the subject . He so far differed with Mr . Utting that he thought free trade , under present political circumstances , was alike impolitic and unjust . Jle most heartily wished his fellowmen to support , cordially , the Provisional Committee in their honest labours , and if they did so , be believed they would have no cause to regret it , but that such support , promptly yielded , must propel onwards the great cause of political and social rights . Mr . Uttixo said a few words in explanation .
Mr . Read , secretary to the Bakers' Society , came forward loudly applauded , and said , he was much pleased with his friend Mr . Blackmore ' _s speech . For himself he had always been a democrat ; he conceived protection—not to farmers , but to labour generally —was absolutely necessary under present circumstances . He believed if the " Protectionists , " as represented by Richmond and Co ., did not gaiD their object shortly , they would offer the Charter as a means of allying the working classes with them . He thought it was only by determined perseverance that the people ever would obtain anything worth having . ( Loud applause . ) Mr . _Pbttib said , it was a striking sign of the times when people were contending as to which
trade was in the worst condition . Ho was a mechanic ; consequently knew what , mechanics suffered , and spoke with a mechanic ' s feeling . Ho felt that what Mr . Read had said was true , about appealing to parliament . Tbe labourer was not " at pre _. sent in a position to free himself from the grasp of tbe capitalist ; before he could do so the propaganda of Democratic Socialism must be widely spread . At present their employers had the political machine in their hands , and could change society if they pleased . If tho aristocracy wished to better the condition of the people , let them come forward ; they boasted of their noble sires ; well , he would show them a noble cause worthy of their exertions—the emancipation of a whole people ; ( Loud cheers . ) Mr . Cutler , a farmer from the West of England ,
said , he looked upon the industrial people of England as . being crucified between two thieves—the Protectionists and Free Traders . At a meeting of farmers and others , held at Swansea , he had ventured to move an amendment , embodying the People ' s Charter . ( Cheers . ) For this he had been ousted from his farm by his landlord—Lord Jerseyand otherwise grossly persecuted . The only electoral system with which he would be satisfied was the People ' s Charter . He did not believo free trade beneficial to the worMhg classes . He had been a Chartist for years ; he had been " doused" in the river for his advocacy of it , and might thus say he was baptized in the faith . ( Laughter and cheers . ) He was also a Social Reformer to tho fullest extent ; and to show the sincerity arid truthfulness of Ins feeling , he had come there that night to take out his card as a member of the National Charter
Association . ( Loud cheers . ) Messrs . M'Neil , Stallwood , Collins , and Wood , nlso , in eloquent speeches , supported the resolution , which was put and carried unanimously . A vote of thanks was passed by acclamation to the Chairman , who , in acknowledging the compliment , announced that as there was an Excursion to Gravesend , under the auspices of the Provisional Committee , on Tuesday next , and as they hoped also to hold a real " Kentish Demonstration" in Gravesend on the same day , that their next meeting in that Hall , would not take place until Tuesday evening , May the 29 th .
A considerable sum of money was raised for the Association by voluntary contributions , as the meeting dispersed ; and a great accession was also made to the muster roll of the Association .

as . shown by the several _eo-eperative association ' s . : Mr . L . Joses said ; although politicians held fast to politics , yet they were now in favour of social reform ; and persons now came to hear its exponents who would not listen before . It appeared to him , that all they had to do was to take possession of the country . Mr . Cramp suggested , that persons desirous of obtaining admission to hear the proceedings should be permitted to do so , when it was resolved , — " Inat all persons wishing to be admitted to the nail , should be permitted by an order of tho secretary , upon the application of any member . " Tho report was then received , and arrangements made for conducting the business of the Congress , as to the time of meeting , & c .
reports of delegates . Mr . Sarton said , the members of the John-street Institution were anxious for a sound and efficient propagandism _, and in support of it they were willing to subscribe as liberally as their means would permit . Mr . G . A . Fleming ( Brighton ) read a report from the Social Reformers of that town , which set forth that Chartist and Socialist were co-operating together in the work of propagandism , and that they believed that a sound opinion should be the precursor of any practical measures ; and that an address should be presented to the noble exiles now in this country for upholding the principles of " liberty , equality , and fraternity . " Mr . _Cbamp said , tho Rational Society was desirous that the scattered elements should be gathered together , and that they should movo on in the good cause .
Mr . Reid ( Bantry ) said , those he represented were desirous of learning , and as speedily as possible , of having a practical experiment , like the Leeds Redemption Society , in a . more central place . Mr . Riqby ( Farringdon-hall ) thought a propagandism was necessary to put correctly beforo the public the views of Social Reformers , and to correct the , errors put forward by a hireling press in opposition thereto . Mr . Lloyd Jones ( London ) said , his constituents were in favour of propagandism . Mr . Doutkwaite ( Halifax ) said , the people never were in a better temper to listen to Social Reformers _; and what was required now that a corps to go forward and proclaim the truths of social reform .
Mr . Bald wis ( Halifax ) said , his constituents were of opinion that a good system of propagandism would be the best for the next twelvemonth—not exclusively by newspapers , but by tracts , newspapers , & c . Mr . Glasford ( Paisley and Glasgow ) , said , the Paisley people were in favour of universal brotherhood , obtainable through public meetings , libraries , discussion , tracts , & c ., & c . In Glasgow the organisation was not so good as at Paisley , but still a , unanimity of opinion and feeling prevailed , and they
_ibm _^ , tu _^ _$ he _^ resolutions were passed in favour of " equal , political , and social rights . " The Chartists were very active in conjunction with the Socialists . Edinburgh had also taken similar views . Mr . Stallwood ( Fraternal Democrats ) , said , he represented the Fraternal Democrats , who tiicir founder delighted in designating " a Democratic Foreign Affairs Committee" They adopted the social motto " all men are brethren . '' and had it
printed on their card m twelve different languages . They had accepted the invitation to send a delegate , because they were anxious to aid in a democratic Socialist propagandism , and were about to attempt a union for that purpose with the National Charter Association , the _National Reform League , and the Socialists ; with this view they proposed to hold monthly social meetings , at which they might compare notes , and adopt proceedings for the next month's campaign . They had resolved to hold public meetings to discuss the seven resolutions put forward by " The National Reform League , " to which they invited their friends—both Chartist and Socialists—and they had also resolved
to hold a meeting at a very early day , in support of " repealing the taxes on knowledge . " They had also resolved to issue tracts , & c _, and they had several intelligent young men who were ready and willing to enter on a democratic Socialist propaganda . M . L'CiiEVALiEn , a refugee , entered the Hall , and was warmly greeted . Mr . Sully ( Social League ) , said , he represented the Christian Socialists , who thought the best way of proceeding was , to commence organising working men—several trades were in action
alreadythe builders were about to start with a five hundred pound job to begin with ; and a gentleman had four hundred and eighty acres of land , which he intended to have cultivated on the associative principle , and that the cultivators should become possessors in tho shortest possible time ; a watchmakers' association was also in course of formation , and tho ultimate object was , to effect an exchange of labour for the benefit of all . The federal system of representation would prevail in the government of the several associations , and they would work with any who would co-operate with them .
The _Chairmax said they had now-got through the delegates reports , and would now proceed to business . Mr . R . _BuciuifAX suggested that the Congress should discuss tho report , clause by clause , with the view to the adoption of such portions of it as may seem to them good . After a few words from several delegates this course was agreed to _. The several clauses were read , down to the clause embracing " propagandism , " which gave rise to a discussion as to what that propagandism should consist of .
Mr . Stallwood moved as an addition the following - . —" -That in addition to the principles laid down in tho address , this Congress is of opinion that the political rights of the people should be taken up by the Propaganda as a means of protection to those social riglits and privileges . " Mr . Pettie seconded the amendment , and very ably pressed iton the attention of Congress , as being in every way worthy of its support . Mr . _Glasi'okd said he thought the amendment might bo taken in tlio course of the proceedings , and ho thought it might be now withdrawn , and allow the report to bo adopted unanimously . The Ciiaiuman said it would be well to allow all parties to unite , without respect to politics , as Tories , Whigs , and Chartists were in favour of the Organisation of Labour . Messrs . Sarton and Buchanan requested Mr . Stallwood to withdraw Ms amendment .
Mr . Solly said he thought the question would work best separately and distinctly ; most of tho active Socialists were Democrats , Mr . Baldwin thought tho questions would be better argued iu a separate form . The Chairman said it must not be supposed that should the Congress reject the amendment that it was opposed to Democracy . Mr . _Saitcon again pressed on Mr . Stallwood to withdraw his amendment . Mr . Pettie said , he thought if tho Congress acknowledged political rights a compromise might be effected .
Mr . Stallwood said if tho Congress would accept the following he had no objection to w ithdraw tho amendment he had submitted : — " That this Congress , in organising a propagandism for the diffusion of a knowledge of Social principles , will adopt such means as may seem to it best adapted to effect the regeneration of society , and will maintain uieaaiy relationship with all parties seeking the political rights of the whole people . " Mr . Phttie and the Congress haying assented , the former amendment was _withdrawn , and . the above substituted ,

" jiftcmoon Sitting . Mr . G . J . Holyoake gave in his report from Manchester , which was much in the same strain as the previous delegates , both as regards social and political reform in the propagandism . : The committee then resumed , ' and agreed , after a discussion , in which all the members took part , on the motion of Mr . Stallwood , seconded by Mr . Reed : — " That this society eschew and deprecate the identification of Social Reform wijh any peculiar theological creed or speculations ; such identification being contrary to fact , and calculated , most unjustly and falsely , to commit all who accept the economical , educational , and practical doctrines of Socialism to theological or speculative opinions
which they may not hold , and tending , in the existing state of . public opinion upon such subjects materially to retard tho acceptance of the practical views of Socialism by society . " . The following was also adopted , " That the members resident in any locality shall have tho power / of nominating seven of their body , including a treasurer and secretary , to act in the capacity of agents to the association ; " and likewise , " That this association shall be governed by an Executive , consisting of seven members , of which three shall form a quorum ; " and " That a Conference bo elected annually , such Conference appointing the Executive , —tho Executive retaining office until their successors shall be appointed . "
WEDNESDAY . This body resumed its sitting to day . Mr , Lloyd Jones in the chair . Mr . _TiionsTOiV Hunt delivered in his report from Liverpool ; it was much of tho same character as the former delegates . Mr . Walter Cooper alsodelivered in a report from the Associative Tailors , showing that they were in a prosperous condition , and that they desired an extension of the principle . —Several routine measures as regards the organisation was adopted . —Mr . Lloyd Jones was appointed general agent . —The following persons were then elected tho committee for the ensuing year—Messrs . Buchanan , Travis , Pettie , _Caoss , A . Holyoake , Ivory , and Rigby . Mr . Fleming gave notice that he would bring forward an address to . tho patriot refugees now in this country , and the Congress rose .
THURSDAY . This body resumed its sitting to day . Mr . Lloyd Jones in the chair . Mr . 11 . Cooper , of Newcastle-upon-Tyne , gave in his report , which in its main points was similar to the reports of previous delegates . The committee then resumed , and on the motion of Messrs . _CuAMr and _Olasfoud , it was resolved " That tho Executive Committee have the power of making bye-laws , and issuing instructions ; such bye-laws and instructions to tie published for the use of the members .
McssrsrHolyoalie and Robert C 8 bp _» , respecting-Socialism and Theology , but the motion , aa originally proposed by Mr . Stallwood on a previous day , was amended by the omission of a few words , anil adopted as follows- " That this society de » precates the identification of Social Reform with any peculiar theological creed or speculations ; such identification being calculatad to commit all who accept the economical , educational , and practical doctrines of Socialism , to theological or speculative opinions which they may not hold , and tending , in the existing state of public opinion upon such subjects materially to retard tho acceptance of the practical views of Socialism by society . "
The Rev . Mr . Larkix , of Lincon , reported from the Redemption Society , of that city , and thought the principles of Socialism well calculated to carry out what God and nature intended for the benefit of society ; had he been present he should have supported the amended resolution just adopted . On the motion of . Messrs , Dr . Travis and the Rev . Mr . Larkix it was resolved , that as a fund was required in support of the League a subscription bo opened , and that the friends ' of Social Reform be requested to contribute . Afternoon Sitting . The Congress deputod Mr . G . J . Holyoake to draw up an address to the country , and that such address be signed by the Chairman , and widely distributed .
Mr . Pettie moved , and Mr . Baldwin seconded , the following , which was adopted unanimously : — " That the congress desires to express its gratification , at the progress of Socialism on the continent , and its admiration of , and warmest sympathy with , its advocates , and especially their expatriated brethren . " The Weekly Tribune was appointed the organ of the Association , and the following resolution was also carried : — " That the Northern Star , tho Democratic Review , the British Quarterly , tha Truth Seeker , the Leader , and other periodical publications , having recently enforced and commented upon the social principles , with great fairness and frimJly feeling , this Congress desire to express the satisfactioirwhieh it feels in observing this sympathy of the public press , and it hopes that tho papers which took tins friendly course , will receive the support of the advocates of Socialism"
. Mr . Stallwood ashed if tho Leader had not attacked Louis Blanc and Eugene Sue , and being answered in tho affimative , objected to the _leader being inserted in the resolution . It was also resolved : — " That the next annual Congress be held on Whit Monday , 1851 . " The report of the Congress was then read and adopted , and the minutes of Congress were confirmed . A vote of thanks was then given to Mr . Lloyd Jones , for the a \> le and efficient manner in which he had presided over the proceedings of Congress . That gentleman having responded , the _Congtcss broke up .
