A3erdee*. Mr M'Gbath Arrived Here On Sun...
A 3 ERDEE _* . Mr M'Gbath arrived here on Sunday the _ ucu ins t . / and lectured on Monday evening on the Lund and its capabilities . Mr . MPheeoti in the chair . He said , that he hoped that the people came not Sere to gratify their curiosity , but to advance the political freedom o f their country ; of aid he glorious sights and scenes which this world _f-rnisha , there is none so glorious as that of a penile _struggling for their liberty . He said there were those who tola us , _ihU we area free and happy people , iUl _( l , therefore Lave uo need of such meeting * as he present . He then proved Hat there docs exist a necessity for such meetings , hy contrasting the condition ef American
slaves with the condition of the so called free _Insurers ia our wines and factories ; the condition of the savage who roams wild aud free over thc prairies of central America , with that of thc immense mass of outcasts who starve in the midst cf oppression and . rime in London -nd other Jargc towns . lie then wont onto shew , that it was only by a return to thc land , from wliich they and their fathers have been so ruthlessly driven , that they could expect to change and improve their condition ; and showed that the land was completely capable of doing this , and far more , lie next reviewed the doctrines of the plausible Makhus , and his disciples of the _TThigand Tory schools , nnd , we think , proved , that if there is indeed a surplus population in the
country it must be composed of those , who , in the course of their whole lives , have never produced _anjjht that can or will , in thc lcast degree , add to the wealth or comfort of society . Dc then proceeded to unfold and explain the objects aad capabilities of the Chartist Co-operative Land Society , its infallible security in its being conducted by such men as O'Connor , and _Tt-ibertS , and DuneoMibc , than whom n » men have ever better deserved the love aud confidence of thc people of this country . De pointed to the commercial panics that arc past , and the certainty of their return , and urged his bearers to join the Cand Society , and thus secure to themselves a safe retreat in their hour of need . On Tuesday evening Mr . M'Grath lectured on thc connection of the Land question with the Charter .
Soibee . —On Friday evening a soiree was held , Mr . John Legg in the chair . The chairman opened -the business with one o those short and pithy speeches for which that gentleman is remarkable , and was followed by Mr . Alex . 11 . Henry , who responded to the sentiment , " May the discontent of the people of this country end in tbi-ir -a ttainment of political equality , as well as in their social ami moral improvement . " He said , that he was aware it had been laid down by many men , both in the past and present ages of tbe world , that contentment with our condition , whatever that condition may be , is ihe highest of human attainments . Yet he " said he -looked upon this idea as one of those fa ' aeies which have been handed down from father to son , and from age to a"e , atd received bv the people as a <_ rcat
truth , without thought or inquiry , roi ' hiinst'jf , he _looked Upon diseontentas the fountain from which ail human improvements had sprang , and from which they inust ot necessity ever spring . In proof of this position he reviewed the _religious and political changes which have taken place in this country , and ¦ the improvements in the arts and sciences , which changes and improvements ho contended could never have taken place if ttie people had been perfectly contented with their former condition , and that it was their discontent , aided by their _knowledge , which had Jed to all those improvements , jlr . \ imes _M'Pherson next responded to tlie sentitent , " May the benefits of co-operation in land , _ . __ bou _!' , and machinery , be speedily exteuded to all . parts of the empire . " He said that some might think , as he was already connected with a co-operative store , he might be apt to look with something akin to jealousy on thc _progress oi the Land society ; but so far from this being the case , he was ready to assist
In forwarding the Laud scheme b y every means in his power ; for so thoroughly was he convinced of the advantages of co-operation , that he considered that every thing that went to teach the people the advantages which it could confer upon _theiu _, instead of taking from thero , would only add to their numbeis , so that the more co-operative stores , and the wider the extension of the Land Society , by so much more would a _thorough knowledge of tlieir principles be spread . Mr . M'Grath next addressed the meeting on the evils of class misrule—but to give even an outline of his splendid address , we feel to be completely beyond our power . He made us , indeed , feel that he is every way worthy ofthe first rank among the advocates of our cause . Mr . Strath gave as some of his finest recitations , and Mr . _jil'Intosh some of his merriest songs—so that tho evening was indeed a ten-it of intellect and rational mirth , "tt ' c may add that a branch of thc Land Society will be formed here . —CorrcsiHmdait .
MK . CLARK'S TOUR . To . the Chawist Body—Friends , — I promised you iu my letter of last week , that 1 would tell you more ofPershoreandthe condition of the agricultural kWwers , as well as tlie benefits resulting from thc allotment system . The evening was far advanced when 1 alighted at the Defford station , from whence I had to walk to iVrsliorc , a distance of something more than three miles . The sun which had almost completed its diurnal course was fast receding behind the distant hills of " Movan , " and shedding its fading lustre * on thc beautiful "Avon . " The horizon was tinged with those lovel y streaks of crimson which connoL- _ . m- _ . of the weather say betoken a fair _nioirotr . Bene and there were to be seen cattle _grazing and
enjovisg that freedom and plenty whicli the inhu inanity ofman has denied to his fellow . ' Orchards lay on each side of the voad , and bushels of penis and apples whieh had fallen from the trees that overhang the hedges were scattered on thc pathway , no one caring to pick them up . The whole country , as far as the eye could reach , seemed to be one uninterrupted garden . Here were no cursed " Rattle Bores" and _"ioDg chimneys" to sicken the sight and desecrate the enchanting scene . A stillness _pervaded all around which presented a _stvikisg " and pleasing contrast to the bustle and 'business , " _through which I had passed at Birmingham about * wo hours before . As 1 approached the town I met _Tronps of persons returning from what 1 thought _Atsafair , as the " kids and lasses" were all dressed
m their holvday attire , but on inquiring I found that it was not a * fair but a " Mop" ov "Statute , " that is an occasion on which tke serv _ u > U and farm labourers meet to engage with fresh masters or renew their servitude with the oM ones for another year . Theday _isoiicofbotli busiiiessaud pleasure , though 1 learned that many of tbe labourers had much difiiculiyln getting permission to attend the " Mop , " that is such . of them asa _^ ree to remain with their old _nu-ters , and that such of them as do succeed liavc to rise L y time ior several mornings previous to thc Staiutc day , and work overtime in lieu of the -day which they intend spending in pleasure with their friends ; this too is the only day allowed them as a holiday in the course of twelve months . I asked what wight be tlie wages
paid those persons who were engaging themselves for so long a terra , and was . told that the wages of men ranged from four to seven pounds per annuva , besides victuals and lod « iwgs . The _average wages , I was informed , would be about five pounds ! The men receiving that pitiable sum were fine , strapping young fellows ; one of whom would make three of the dwarfish and stunted caricatures that are to be seen iu the streets of the manufacturing towns of the north . Trilling as is thc remuneration given to these hale and athletic _voujhj felJows , not one of them would cbange places With the- " devil ' _s-dust " man of L ? ed . « , ot * thc cotton spinners of Manchester . Agricultural labourers not engaged by the year , receive from seren to nine shillings per week , out of
which they hare to feed , clothe , and educate their families . The agricultural labourer is yet little better in nt _«? t cases than a serf . He seems not to have a more lofty notion than that of " swinging on a gate . " And as to _^ _iolitics . he deems thc consideration of them to be quite beyond his comprehension , and treats the subject as one that concerns ihe privileged _clashes ; alone . The manufacturing operative is much more intelligent , and less degenerate , but in my opinion less happy . The physical appearance of the multitude of _lahouring men and woiucu whom I saw was such as to strengthen nie in my opinion , _tkat Mr . O'Connor is right when he says that tilling the earth is the natural employment of man . "Well , " thought I . "if these persons with their scanty means
and _working for others , can present an appearance 80 _vastly superior to anything that is to be seen in the more refined neighbourhoods of Manchester or Birmingham , what sort of an appearance would a man make when working for himself , ami on his own land ? " 1 told you last week of thc meeting which ihad at night pre-ided over by a local preacher , belonging to the town , and who made an excellent speech noon the occasion . I have _ah-cadv informed you that the persons composing the meeting were _labouring men—practical farmers , pcreons who well understand the value of the soil . A few " _bullfiles ''' were present , as well as the clerk of thepavisb . who , I afterwards learned , was not at aH _pleaded at some of my _reiaatkson the State Church . It was
a great advantage to me to have to address a meeting of practical agriculturists , because , before such men you have not to apologise for or explain statements relative to what the land can _pnSluce , as there was not a man present who had not known the land in many instances to produce a great deal more than I stated it might he made to vield . On the following morning I was taken by Mr . Conn _toseesome land wbich had been let out in small < _pa _* at \ tits to the _working men of a neighbouring _Pansh . The land is the property of one Squire Acwm , and iome fex years ago let out altogether to thc FJJ" * who occupied land adjoining it . but it was so mt _^ _T , tenant after another gave it up , thev _•^ fo * _w £ * _^ ds _** ¦» _faaw named Day ! and _K 3 _£ _, _??^ P _^ ' _^ ofit for some time he told _SSS _^ _lfti _^ W _> .

person in tha neighbourhocd that was in the habit of setting plantations for the gentry , and asked him what he thought of planting the land with oak . The man , after going over it , told the squire that he thought he would be foolish to turn it to any such purpose , and advised him to see what could be done by parcelling it out amongst the labouring men of the parish . Accordingly announcement was made that the land , which was then growing furze , was to be let in small allotments , at 35 s . per acre , and immediately there arose a strong competition __ for its possession . Ab soon aa the working men got it they drained it aud turned it up with the spade ; it consisted in all of about twenty acres . I went on it and conversed with some of the men who were engaged in getting in their potatoes , they told me that some had a
quarter of an acre , others half an acre , and others a whole acre , in proportion to th ? numbers of their family . One man told me that from his quarter ot an aerobe had sold £ 5 worth of early cabbage , and that he afterwards set late potatoes in the same ground for which he expected to rccievc at least £ 5 more , and that if it had not been for having the land , small as the quantity was , that he believed himself and all those who had the same privilege would have been paupers on the parish during some part oi the year , but as it was , the laud found them a little employment , and kept them out of the bastile . Mr . Acton has since let out about twenty acres more , and the consequence is , that iu the whole village ( Pertvin ) near which the land is situated , there is not a single
pauper but one old man , and he is a cripple , aad cannot perform any labour . Bay has since tried to get the land attached to the Lirm again , but Mr . Acton will not take it from the poor men whom he says have made it what it is by their labour and perseverance . The farmers of the neighbourhood were so annoyed at the picture of independence presented by these men , and were so much afraid that other landholders might be induced to follow Mr . Acton ' s example , that they held a meeting amongst themselves , and agreed that no man amongst them should let the poor men have thc use of their horses and carts to draw manure to thc land , or the produce from it , no matter what price they might offer for them . But one farmer , who had a great number of horses and carts , and who did not so to the meeting , was wise
enough to profit by the villainy of the others , ibr the morning following the _meeting of the Solons , this person was as busy as possible with his carts and horses , doing tbe very _tbitis which thc others had agreed they would not do . Now , though tbe farmers did not succeed in their diabolical scheme , you will see from this how much they dread the labourers getting .-mall plots of land , because they know tliat as _loni ; as the po or fellows are without land , ihey must work for tlicm alone , and at tlieir own prices too . Thc farmers have , now to pay enormous poorrates , and by encouraging the allotment system they might entirely abolish pauperism and destroy the rates ; but no , they would rather pay fifty per cent _, of their profits , than allow theiv Unfortunate slaves to become independent of them . There is another
gentleman who has large estates in thc same quarter —Sir Charles Thuckmorton . The working men on one of his estates addressed several letters to bis steward , begging to be allowed to rent small plots of land , at the same _tixiestating , that they did not care so much about the rent , providing they could get thc land . The steward , however , did not take notice of them , and they at length sent a deputation from amongst themselves to Sir Charles to make the request of him personally . Sir Charles received ihem courteousl y , and at once acceded to their request , aud let them have from a quarter to an acre of land each . The fanners no sooner -heard of it than they became indignant , and one of them Vf ent to Sir Charles and pointed out to him what would he the consequence of his conduct . The
larmer stated that the persons who had _anaereot land would be weil able to make a living of it , and would not work for any one ; and in that ease he wanted to know where were the farmers to get labourers from ? Sir Charles doubted that a man with a family could make a living of one acre of land , but the farmer persisted that a mail with one acre ol land , and working for himself , would he well able to make double the amount that he would receive if he continued to labour for the farmers as before . Sir Charles thought it very curious that a man having a family , and renting only one acre of land , and paying four pounds a year for it , should bo able to make a living ofit , whilst thc farmer who complained had four hundred acres of much better land , and only gave one pound an acre for it , was always grumbling
that the rent was too high , and that he could not manage to live . " Kcallv , " said Sir Charles , " if what you state bc true , Iliad better take the ' four hundred acres from you , fov which I am now receiving only £ 4 . 00 , and let it out to the labouring men at the rate of £ i per acre , when _Imayreeeive ; £ l , OHO . " The " bull-frog" was struck dumb , and slunk away cursing his folly . I saw several other allotments , some in thc town of Pcrshore , and was told that were it r . ot i ' or them that one half the working men would be paupers . One man , who rents about the twelfth part of an acre , last year tried the plan of dibbling wheat , as recommended by Mr . O'Connor . He set less than a quarter of a pint of seed , each grain being
set from four to six inches apart ; and when it came to be thrashed , it produced a bushel of excellent whc . it . In some of the holes he dropped two ov three grains , and from them sprung much less wheat than from these grains that had been set singly . I heard ofa man , somewhere near _Fers ' uore , who a few years ago bought five acres of land—poor land—of _coni- » e as the price of it tells . but he has since lived upon it , built himself a comfortable bouse , and was the other day offered £ 1000 for bis bargain , but refused to take it , as he says it is worth more than that to htm . Who now will say that the land of this country will not yield enough to maintain its own inhabitants ?
_BHIMIXGIIAM . On Monday , 13 th , I lectured here to a large meeting in the Christian Chartist church . Mr . Alfred Fussell in the ch ir . I explained the land plan , and at the close , had to encounter the opposition of Mr . J . Mason , who urged Mr . O'Brien ' s objections , to wliich 1 replied , and I think , succeeded in convincing the people , that we could do it if we would . WOnCRSTEH . I lectured here on Tuesday evening . The meeting was not numerous , owing partly to its being held in the Socialist ' s room , against whieh the pious population ofthe town have a trulyreligious prejudice ; and secondl y , because the meeting was announced to take place an hour before the working classes leave their employment . I enrolled a few members , however , and think that my visit will be of some service to the cause .
CHELTEXHAM . I had a conversational meet ing with the members of the Land Society here on "Wednesday night , and entered into arrangements to attend a public meeting on the following Monday . WOOITOX-UXllEB-KnGE . On Thursday _evening I had a splendid meeting in the Town Hall , about five hundred persons were present . After laying down our plan and explaining how the land had been taken from the people , I invited discussion , but no one seemed desirous of opposing me , and the meeting quietly separated . _. Yours truly , Tuouas Clark .

Los-no : * - _Conx Exciuxcn , Moxiuy , Oct . 20 . —The past week ' s arrivals of English wheat for onr market , coastwise , were on a moderately extensive scale , but very middling quality , especially as relates to the parcels of new received from Cambridgeshire . Of otlier grain of home produce , except peas , the receipts were limited . The imports of foreign wheat and oats were on the increase , but only a small supply of oats reached ns from Ireland . Fresh up to-day , coastwise , as well as by land carriage and sample , very little English wheat came to hand , yet , as several large parcels were left over on Friday , we had a fair average quantity on offer . This , together with the accounts from the north coming more
favourable as relates to the ingathering of the outstanding crops , caused the demand ( notwithstanding the large attendance of both town and country buyers ) to be less active than fur somo time past ; nevertheless " , a full average amount of business was doing in the article , and the advance noticed in the quotations on Monday last was steadily supported . The show of free foreign wheat was by no means large . The best qualities of both red and white commanded a steady , though not to say brisk inquiry ; and last week ' s prices were obtained in every instance . The middling and inferior kinds , however , commanded very little attention , yet tliey were not considered cheaper . A few parcels of wheat , barley , and oats , under lock , were taken for speculative purposes . For shipment there was little or no inquiry .
Scarcely any English bavley was mi show ; while tho supply of f ree foreign was small . The barley trade was active , and extreme prices were paid for selected parcels of both old and new . Superfine old malt was the turn dearer , with an active demand . The value of other kinds was maintained without difficulty . Although upwards of 10 , 000 quarters of oats came to hand from Ireland last week , very few oats were on offer to-day . The oat trade was , therefore , brisk , at an improvement on last Momlay ' s quotations of from ls , to 3 s . per quarter , at wliich the whole were speedily cleared off . The supp ly of beans was hy no means large , yet the sale was rather inactive at late rates . Peas , from their abundance , moved off slowly , at about stationary prices . The flour trade was steady at full quotations . In seeds rather more business was doing .

A MID the many and the mighty records of man ' s discoveries in tho aits and sciences which owe their il existence to the unceasing energies and boundless wealth of this coiiiniorcial empire , posterity will search in vain the historical monuments Of departed ages , to discover one more wonderful or valuable in the annals of a nation ' s greatness , than the iron roads ofthe nineteenth ccutury—those magnificent highways of commerce , which , extending in every direction their gigantic trunks and literally countless branches , Mid intersecting in its length as in its breadth the entire Kingdom of Great Bri tain , sire , to the extent ot some thousand miles , momentarily traversed with almost _I . g ' _itningi'ipidity , by the potent agency of Steam . Most truly has it been observed that *• the philosophyof railroads is only now beginning tobe comprehended by the universal world * , daily and rapidly they are developing new an important views ol * society ; they are . in fact , self-sustaining social instruments ' ,-that by cheapening innumerable commouities , and diminishing tire cost ol * transit , are not only increasing consumption , but crca ng , as it were , in savings new enterprise , new capital , new wants . " If any changes yet await them ( and , lloubtlcs 9 , there are some ) , they are changes merely ol progression from one stage of improvement to another : but sooner ov later the adoption of railrcads must become universal , though the broad gunge , bv reason of its supposed' increased safety , with _increa-cd speed , should ultimately clash with the narrow , and the maximum of onr present velocity should become the minimum of speed hereafter , toe while an engine manufactured in 1 S 1 < 1 cannot accomplish the curt nice between Louuon and Liverpool in less than six hours , we behold another constructed in 1 B 15 traversing the same space in less than four . . __ The assertion may appear , at first mention , astounding to those quite unacquainted with thc fact , and in happy ignorance of the great advantages of railroads , even as investments , J ' t't so highly remunerative has been the actual interest onl y , paid fay Railway Companies on the amount of money exiled lor up to the present time , that the efiect has positively been to create a new and independent property for Railway Shareholders , over and above the gross amount of capital advanced by them , of upwards of ONE HUNDRED MILLIONS STERLING . # The primary and the princi pal , object of this Companv is to accomplish , on fhe more extensive field ot continental Europe , as well as in our British _possessions 'throughout the world , what England , with all Tier wealth , and all her energies , has , from her very limited extent alone , only succeeded as yet in carrying out comparatively in miniature , viz ., the construction of Railroads ; in other words , to _accomplish by steam power a still more gigantic scheme of passenger traffic on land than those extensive fleetsof steamers , known as the various Foreign Steam Navi gation Companies of England , have hitherto maintained at sea . "With such important views , and national ns well as individual interests sincerely at heart , accredited Directors , with ample resources at their command in several instances most favourably connected , in all practically and intimately acquainted with the various localities tliey are destined to proceed to , will be specially delegated , on behalf of the Company , to enter into _negotiations with Continental States and British and Foreign Governments , and by contracts of the most favourable nature lor the interest of Shaveholders in the present Company , to secure the concession of ihe many exceedingly valuable lines of railway whieh to the extent of several thousand miles throughout the world , still await the immediate application only af British enterprise , combined with British capital , to be effectually and -successfull y carried out . An engineering staff , on a scale of liberality sufficiently great to meet the magnitude of the _untlcrtakinn- , and as perfect in its several appointments as the very highest order of merit ( _suuported ty unexceptionable testimonials ) , can constitute it , will accompany a chosen body of the Directors _throughout thoir travels to guide their judgment on scientific questions , and to report on eng ineering matters ) such asenrtlMvow < s , costs of construction , and the precise nature of the _SOVCial soils and _"Viadiehts . ... The Directors purposely omit nW mention of engineering difficulties , because , with the single exception of physical imposjibilities , experience daily proves that they resolve themselves into the simple question of expense , and consequent amount of interest , and arc therefore , more properly sneaking , matters for the special consideration of financiers ( rather than of engineers ) ,, by wJiom they will be iull y debated and disposedof . "Witli a view _to-ensur * not only names of high commercial _stai ding , and -possessing likwiae extensive " mifluenoe with . Foreign States , but also practically efficient working -Directors , the _ExeeatWe of this Gon * ji » _j . y has been constituted liberally remunerative ; thus every Director will loci that in bis own personal swicea lies the secret power of rendering the present-project only the . lirst ot a scries of eminently _siiccessf _*«] _iundertakingB , in tlie interest of all of which lie must necessarib participate . _9 Every grant for a Railroad secured by tho successful negotiations of Ihis , Company , will be _wnjiifciitod a separate and distinct Railway Company , and every holder of Shares hemn will be _entity tOi _^ _Uo CftU _M par ofa proportionate number ofthe new shares in _vestf Company ., acewdCug tc , t _* t « ni _Kuiei ! _-hs . i | iay _posyss in the present one : such _cliVini to bo made by the , pwductiatt ot the _ovigtuaj . _sfc _& Ks at _ \ 1 _® t ' _oawany ' _atlfe _** _acveu clear days previous to overv _dlotiaent of _^ airs in cac _*! i Coi _ v ; a ) i \\ ; '
