The present movement was not a party movement , but one m . _^ hwh the _Swt muB of working _menwerestmgehng far he right He _c meluded by moving the resolution , which was as follows : — That this meeting deeply sympathises with the IrfBb _ljeWtata tn « r « rotfle for K & ertr , una Mfcw » that 8 nnion between _* _e people ofthe t « o countries is essentially necessary for tbe _removal of the one common enemy , aud the establishment of that degree of freedom which both so earnestly desire .
Mr _Wu _EKiKTi , « f Keighley , seconded the resolotion . He asked whether this was the last _^ meeting they were to have for the purpose of discussing their grievances . Were they going to meet together that lay , and to tell I / _ird John Russell that they were mm * 53 sit down with hisGagguK Bill ? ( No . ) Il Ihey were _workm ? men , and were going to do so , they were not prepared for the Charter . He hoped thafc every workine man tha * spoke afc their meeting * would resolve that where he spoke once before the , Gagging Bill pa _^ fd he would now speak twiee or _fcrtrk ( _Ctefets . ) If they sat down with the Gagging BiU , and allowed Lord John Russell to put it into operation , their liberties were drowned and their BlAvery was fixed for ever . The resolution expressed sympathy with the Irish people , and the meeting no doubt sympathised with the whole people oflreland and the whole _wsrld , in the endeavour te effect their enancioation . Thev were going to _memorialise the
Queen to dismiss her ministers . The people ot iretano were starving in thousands ; and the people of . _hng-Zand were ia s miserable and distressed condition-He thought it was the duty of the peop _' e of England to unite firmly wi th the labouring classes oflreland ; and , if thoy did so , tkey might rely upon it no go-Ternm ° nt wou'd lo ? . g bs able te withstand their _demands ; and the People ' s Charter wonld become the law of tbe land . Mr J- Shaw , of Leeds , supported the resolution , Thp _isolation he said spoke of the sympathy they had
for the Irish people . It was true they aid _sympatnis _* with the _cufferins s of the Irish _peopte , but whatever sympathy thev might have for those sufferings oi _whatever svtapathy the Irish people might have for the _EoMish working ctese * _. they would never te mfficiently strong to put down the injustice thafc was the cause of those sufferings , without they were united aad _determined as one man to put down the wrong system which existed in this _nation . If they inquired why so much _puffsrinj , poverty , and starvation existed in the _nation , thev wera told by some thit it was the will of Sad that it should ba so . It was his belief that the wiil of God had nothing ta do with ifc . _fflear hear . ) ' _No , mau is the cause of it . ' If thsy
told Wm that it was caused by the extravagance ot , fee aristocracy-awl the base , brutal , and bloody . ~ Whi < _r c . ivernment—or by the whole ofthe idlers that eopsnmed the nation ' s wealth , without giving any ! equivalent in return—then he might agree with thera ; for it was by the taxes drained from _ssctetj by those who lived on the industrious that they were made to suffer and to pine . ( Hear , hear . ) He contended that while the upper classes were prepared with phvslcnl _forse to beep them down , he eaw no rea = oa why tbe working classes should not bs physically prepared to repel and drive back the encroachment upon their liberties . ( Cheers . ) He was aware that he was a marked mas . but no matter
for that , he was determined to speak the truth . Iu Ireland , hundreds of thousands of _people had been Eent , _through want , to a premature grave ; and in our own _countrv ther 3 were thousands wbo were slowly perishing day by day , for want ofthe common accessaries ot life . He was one that would preserve life and property . He had a great respect fer life and property . He wcu'd injure the property of no man . He would be sorry to do so . He wanted to pro _ectthe property of all men ; and were he required te be sworn in a * a special constable , he would _readily _jain with tho higher and _middje classes ot Eociety in protecting their property against the robbers and plunderers who came to invade it ; but st
tbe same time be would protect bis own property , which was his Itbonr . So he would try tcprotect the property ot the _labourers of _th-j _coantry . While , then , they found all parties in society making _eommen cause against the property of the _workics ; classes ' , he would ss ? again , tint it was the duty ef the working classes to be united f cr the purpose of repelling and driving back an invasion upon their properly- He had an idea that the middle elasses of society wera prepared to assist tbe working _classed to a certain extent . He would receive that assistance ! gladly ; but , at the _ss-ne time , he did not think thi _middle c '& _sses came willingly to their __ assistance _^ It was because they coull not do otkerwise ; it was ; berause while the present system ot taxation had _reduced the working classes to pauperism , the middle ]
rfisses were on tbe verge of bankruptcy . The lute rests of the middle and working classes in _sosietyr were th- ; _e _^ me . If the working mau was doing well the middle man weuld do well ; but it was quite clear tbat if the working man got no wages , thej middle man would _gst no _profits . It wa 3 the duty of ! middle men , then , to come forward to the aid of thej working ra _* n . Let tha middle classes remember that ] the working classes had now nothing to lose ; let ! themremen . _faerthat tie condition of the _working _classes could _notb j worse . It had been said that t " give security to life aad propetcy they must yield to the people their _rights ; and , if they did so , the ; would willingly assist tr » proket the life and property of al the ocher Chartists .
Mr — _Clissht . of Halifax , moved the next resolution _, lie _complimcnte-l the meeting on their _exhibitiKg such moral dignity , and standing up as they did that day , in the proud pnsi ion of men who Bbo _^ ed that the y were determined to hava their political asd social rights . After some remark ? deprecatory of the ' corrupt and _hireling pres ? , ' he concluded by moving the following resolution * . — That this meeting , _agreeing with the National _Conveutwa in its _general conduct , and _psrtieularly as re- ] gardstie election ofa National _Assembly , pledges itself ! _t- » render that body all the _s-sppsrt in its power . j Mr Jakes _Diggles . of _Bradford , seconded the resolution . Mr _Jpsejh Barker _, of Wortley , after some con-— - _~ - — , — - -- ——j' — ---- ~~— -- --.. |
eratu ' . atory remarks , said tbat their cause might be _compared to tbe day on which , they had met _togeiher . The _niaht preceded tho day , and tho dim dawn _followed . For some hours they had still had a _thresteninc of mist and of rain ; but the day uot brighter—it had continued to get brighter hourlyand at last the beautiful sun had begun to shine out brishtly uoontte _* Ji . And so would it be with the political affairs of this _country . They had outlived the dark midnight of oppression . They bad seen the dim dawn of liberty— : ha day of freedom was ! partially advancing , and if they proceeded in a pro j per course , the sua of freedom would dry up every ! cloud , would pour down its bright warm rays upon : them , and they woald see the close of a hap ' fy day . ] lie was a moral _b-rce Chartist . ( Cheers . ) He be-i |
lieved ia the all _raiahty power of moral force , andfi taafc truth , and benevolence , and virtue , and _cou-p ras e would go hand in hand , and would overturns evil institutions and annihilate all bad government , and establish _righteousness andfreedoa in the _placeg of _oppression and despotism . They wished tbe got _versment < f _thw country to adopt the People ' s _Char-s ter , in order to popularise tbe _Ilous-e of Commons . | The principles of the Chs . rter were perfectly just , rational , and moderate , and he then praceeded toj discuss the several points of fch 9 Charter in proof ol ! this _position . He concluded by reading a memorial to her Majesty , _prayiagher to dismiss her present ] advisers , and take into her council men wha _wciuldi make the People ' s Charter a cabinet , raeasnre . Thej reading of this memorial was received with , loud
eheenng . The adoption efthe memorial was seconded by Mr Jobs Smttii , of Bradford , who , in the course of hisj remark ? , stated , that the meeting contained 45 , 000 people , as be said it covered two acres of ground , which , at eight to the square yard , would give the above number . Mr Charles Suits , nf _Bradfoid , supported thi resolation . The m emorial was then adopted amid bud cheers A . vote of tbank 3 to the chairman wa _^ moved b _) Mr T . B .

DEATH OF . LIBERTY . It is this week our painful duty to record one of the most melancholy events of ancient '• or modern times—namely , the death of an old and valued friend . _£ The loss of a friend is deeply felt in the j family circle , or at the social board ; but how _*) much , more poignant must suffering be when -. the grief applies to the whole human family ! ¦
and the more especially , when it will be seen ' by the evidence adduced upon the inquest , * _^ that the death of deceased was the result of ; one ofthe most dastardly conspiracies that has j been hatched in the most hellish mind—a con-j spiracy of so wide-spread and determined a nature as to preclude the possibility of detection until too late . * # The friends of the deceased have been in a
state of constant alarm since the year 1832 , when the faculty announced a great change ; in deceased's constitution , consequent upon several reforms professed to be made in his household , from whose dissensions and squabbles his health was in the habit of re- _^ ceiving sudden and violent shocks _^ and from that period tothe present , the constitution of . deceased manifested progressive decline in re- ;
peated attacks of spleen , occasioned by the injurious restraints imposed upon him in his old age , and which resulted in his demise at two o ' clock , on Saturday last , the 22 nd of April , in the year of our Lord 1848 , and the first of the Reign of Terror . The remains of the deceased were brought up in triumph from the House of Lords , and laid on a table in the House of Commons , and were carried thence to the tomb of one of his ancestors , the Lord
William Russell , where the slaughtered parent _^ _, and the murdered offspring now lie . ' £ 1 On the Saturday and Sunday subsequent to the interment , a rumour that deceased came to his death by foul means was extensively circulated ; whereupon T . Wakley , Esq ., M . P ., and Coroner , gave immediate direction for the disinterment of the remains , and summoned a jury to hold an inquest at Chesj ham House , the residence of Lord John iRussell .
| | I In accordance with the instructions of the iCoroner , a highly respectable jury was sworn | at two o ' clock , on Monday , the 24 th , and , _Safter a post mortem examination by Dr | Charter , assisted by the must eminent of the imedical profession , the following evidence g was submitted to thejury : — i a Dr Charter was the first witness called , land gave the following evidence : — i I " I have known the deceased from my _ingfancy , but was not his medical adviser ; iie-Ivertheless , we were upon terms of close inti-Imacy , and , since the year 1832 , he has freaquentl y consulted me as a friend as to the _Smedical treatment he had been in the habit
of receiving from Drs . Grey , Melbourne , and Russell , who had been appointed physicians in ordinary to the deceased , in the year 1832 . " Coroner—Pray Doctor are you aware of the age of deceased ? Witness—Not from any parish register or local record , but from tradition ( which has not been contradicted , ) it appears that deceased was born in 1688 .
Coroner—What , then , he must have been [ in his hundred and sixtieth year ? I "Witness—Yes , for he had a noble _constitution up to the period of which I speak , and Iwas one of those phenomena for which thero lis no accounting . 1 Coroner—Well , Doctor , and to what do you _^ attribute his death ? I Witness—Why , after the most minute exa-| mination I hare discovered marks of several lexternal wounds upon the body , as well as psymptoms of organic disorder , which appeared | to be the result of repeated fits of spleen and jfepilepsy . I Coroner—But to what circumstance do you _"Sascribe the immediate death of deceased ? Witness —Decidedl y to the stab which he | received on the evening of the 10 th ol | AP ril . n Coroner . —You consider thafc stab to have Sheen the immediate cause of death ? |
j Witness . —Certainly ; for the other wounds , _j of which I have spoken , „ were healed , and ' must have been inflicted at different times ; land although the interna ' circumstances | showed the disordered state of the heart and ¦ dungs , _)* efc there is no reason to suppose ithat they were the immediate cause of death . § Several other witnesses belonging to the | medical profession corroborated the evidence , _\ iwhen Mr Equality , a chemist , who was in the | hal ) it of supplying drugs to the deceased , and | with whom he was upon the closest terms of _^ intimacy , was called . Coroner , to the Witness . — Pray , Mr _gEqualitv , were you acquainted with deceased ? I Witness . —Yes ; I was in the habit of pre-| paring all his medicines ; besides which , I waa ihis nearest relative , and we were upon the most te
_^ intimaterms . I Coroner . —Then , _Witness _^ will you have | the kindness to detail to the Jury any circum-I j stance connected with this important inquiry _^[ from your private knowledge , or your _professional engagements ? Witness—About the year 1794 , Dr Grey , * _* m eminent member ofthe faculty , and a near _^ relative of the deceased , attempted to alter his | treatment according to tire new system pre ascribed _byfthe French medical school , in 1793 , y _. JB * " ? _—tV—J |
% _gand deceased being of a most sanguine and ffexcitable temperament , began to take more iexercise _, from that period , than he had been _¦^ previously accustomed to . Up to that time _^ deceased was of a melancholy and sedative _Itenijierament , and the sudden changes from Ithe habits thus contracted , to the most gay and Idissipated life , appeared to accord best with | his disposition } I Coroner . —Well , but Dr Grey _^ was ° not his p hysician in those days ? I _Witness . —Not always ; but when Drs . Pitt , |

| | and to whom Dr Russell and the faculty administered , in his ( Witness ' s ) opinion , a dose of rank poison , known to the faculty as powdei of ropes and bullets ; and this treatment _having caused the death of his sister , deceased continued in a state of violent agitation until tin 10 th of the present month , when Dr Russell called in Drs Peel and Wellington , when tin previous treatment of deceased was _completely altered—those practitioners having decided
pon administering a bolus of sulp hate of irori ud steel filings , mixed with a black powder , > be administered by Dr Wellington on the _lorning of the 10 th . Coroner . —Well , was this bolus ad minisjred ? Witness . —No , it was not . 'Dr Charter , havig received intimation ofthe intent , paid _debased a _private visit late on Sunday nig ht ad cautioned him against the conspirators . Coroner . —Where did deceased live [ at the
mef Witness . —On Kennington Common ; and ie bolus , I should say , was proposed as _v PECIAL remedy . Coroner . —Well , if the bolus was not taken ou cannot attribute death to that . Witness . —Certainly , not directly ; but when ie deceased refused to take the bolus , Dr . -
. ussell , Peel , and Wellington decided that h _* _jould be placed in an asylum , and the resull F wbich was , that on the night of the lOtb a was placed in St Stephen ' s Mad-house , id , unable to bear the ravings and howling . ' F the maniacs , he became daily weaker until hursday , the 20 th , when , being despaired of 3 was sent to the House of Incurables , where e remained till two o ' clock on Saturday , the
22 nd , when he expired . Coroner . —Witness , did decease make a will , md if so , to whom did he leave his property ? Witness . —Yes , he made a will and I am one } f the witnesses . He left his property , share md share alike , between his sister , Mrs Ire land , and the descendants of his other favourite sister , Mrs Chartist ; and he appointed a person called PEOPLE'S VOICE as his trustee , and * his last , words were , tllOUgli uttered very
feebly" LAND AND CHARTER . " I Coroner . —Then , witness , to what do you attribute the death of the deceased ? Witness . —To a conspiracy to take away hi .-life , as the bolus wouhl have done , if administered , as I have taken the precaution to have it analysed by the ablest chemists , and the result was that ihey came to the conclusion that it would kill an ox . We did administei a very small portion of it to a horse , and he instantly died ; but the immediate cause ol death was the stab under the blade bone , which efff cted the lungs , and the subsequent imeasi ness , occasioned by the ravings and the _bellow ings of the maniacs in St Stephen ' s , and to the dying groans of tbe Incurables .
James Fraternity , a reporter , was next ex amined . —He stated that on Monday , the 10 th . ? lie was sent to St Stephen's Mad-house , tt furnish a correct report of the state of that j _establishment ; and persons belonging to hi * ] department , being fearful of coming into col- Iision with the inmates , usually took _uji their position in a gallery , from which there was an escape by a back door upon hearing a term , in general use , WITHDRAW ! WITHDRAW ! ! WITHDRAW ! ! ! _^ Witness was in the gallery when the deceased was lying on the floor ; and when he heard I 'DO LIE UPON THE TABLE ' pro-[ nounced by the keeper , he saw Dr Russell stab
ideceased under the blade bone , when , in a [ state of exhaustion , he was dragged along the . floor by two mutes ; further he cannot state _J . from his own knowledge , but from what hehas i ; heard , he is inclined to believe thafc deceased _tlingered from the 10 th to the 22 nd of April . | when he saw the undertaker come into St I Stephen ' s , and he heard him tell the mutes to jjgo up to tha Hospital of Incurables for the re-Imains of deceased . I Coroner . —What further did you see or [ hear ? Witness . —Nothing more . Deceased being | an old and dear friend , I wept bitterly , and _re-Jturned home to caution my family and friends lagainst taking tiny of the special bolus in-Itended to be admistered to our relative . ( This 1 witness appeared to be much affected , and Swept bitterly . ) 3 'I'he next witness culled was Mrs Justice . | |
Ihousekeepei- to tiie deceased . She was in Ideep mourning , and much affected , She _corroborated all that had been stated by _MrEquu-Slity ; and upon being asked by the Coroner , _^ whether the disobedience of numerous meni-;| _liers of deceased ' s numerous famil y had not _^ occasioned him tr ouble , which impaired his _^ health , and injured his constitution , she re-| |
_gp lied , with a deep sig h— _"No ; never ! He js always relied upuii the wisdom of the sensible | to correct the follies of the foolish , and he often Isaid to me - * I think I hear him now , ' Mrs _^ Justice ; he used to say <( If you attempt | to check the ardour and spirit of those of my 5 jftimih ' , who think they have cause of cotngp laint , b y violence or coercion , you will onlyj P wed them the more fondly to error and mis-j | |

" Oh dear . ' oh dear I I see him _sitting I opposite to me now over the fire , when lie used g to take his bread and milk at night , and he'd I -ay : ' Mrs Justice , I ' m too old to work hard 5 now , but I ' ve earned in youth the frugal comforts I enjoy in old age ; ' and then he'd start : _jjOhj bless " me' - how he'd start , and look

love death better now , as some one has _whisipered in my ear that my children are to be transported , if henceforth they are not satisfied to die without a murmur , and suffer famine without a complaint . '" ( At this point o _* her evidence , the witness fainted away , and the Coroner , the Jury , and the Public , were _, affected with intense grief . ) j The evidence being closed , the Coroner addressed the Jury as follows : ~ § j « Gentlemen ofthe Jury : —However important the present inquiry may be , my duty , is rendered comparatively easy by the close and praiseworthy attention , which throughout you ; hadevoted to the case . nnfl has _whia _.
ve _« Gentlemen , according to the spirit of our laws , the preservation of life , or the punish-¦ nent of those who take it , constitute the chief duty of the citizen ; and so considerate , and ) indeed just , is the law upon this subject , that j it is held to be murder in as high a degree to _^ _shorten the duration of the life of a baby , ~ t whose existence would in all human probability J be terminated in the course of a few minutes , § as to take away the life of the first personage in ] the realm , though that person may be in the _vicour of life and of constitution . %
" Thus I show you that the declining state ot the health of deceased is no palliation whatever _^ forthe destruction of that life ; and , Gentle _^; men , your own good sense will afc once _pol / _it ; out the impossibility of establishing any line of j demarcation , by which the living could be con-1 stituted as judges of the probable duration of _^ life , as , were it otherwise , each would establish j his own capricious standard of possible , or even } probable , existence , and the law , instead of I being made the avenger of guilt , would be made j the abettor of crime . fj
" Gentlemen , I have thought it my dutyfco _^ direct your minds to this branch of the subject , ' - ' lest the declining state of deceased ' s health , if j coupled with a verdict which may not implicate 1 any one in the guilt of his destruction , should j lead to an erroneous conclusion . _>» " Gentlemen , in my opinion , the evidence of i Mr Equality , the chemist , and of Mr Fraternity , j tbe reporter , is conclusive as to the fact that a j conspiracy against the deceased did exist , and ) that the fatal blow was struck by ene of the i conspirators ; but , gentlemen , another , though not so important a question must be decided by j
vour verdict ; because , from the evidence of _i Equality , the chemist , it appears that deceased j made a will and appointed trustees , and there- J fore yon will have to decide as to his compe- ] tency or incompetency to perform thafc act . _" jj That is , whether at the time of making his will j the deceased was in that state of mind which would lead you to the conclusion thafc he was , _capable of discharging so important a duty , but , * in my opinion , the evidence throughout , and " _especially the evidence of Mrs Justice , can ; leave no doubt upon your minds as to the j sanity of deceased . I
" Gentlemen , I wish to be explicit upon this point , because , if the life of deceased was taken by any of the conspirators , who , under the impression that he had not made a will , took his life , in the hope of enjoying his property as next of kin , this fact would considerably aug- ; nenfc the crime of the guilty party . . i "Gentlemen , as there is much and justifiable _excitement throughout the whole country upon this subject , it behoves you to be particular in vour verdict ; meanwhile , I cannot withhold from you the fact that , in my mind , the rnere circumstance of committing deceased to the lunatic asylum of St Stephen's furnishes _strong ground for suspicion , and for this reason , gentlemen , because , it being frequently my duty to visit that house , I _tinhesitatingly declare that , at times , the confusion is enough to drive a sane mind mad . 1
" Gentlemen , the inmateshave each a mono-• nania—money , relig ion , patronage , neglect , railways , peerage , profession , the army , the navy , and what they call the " civil list , " together with numberless other crotchets , possess the unfortunate inmates of that House ; and , r . herefore , I say , that the very fact of consigning the deceased to such an asylum , while in a state of exhaustion and debility , is strong evidence of a conspiracy—a fact which is _corroborated by the attempt of the same parties to administer the SPECIAL BOLUS
_deposed to by the medical practitioner , and to the effect of which , when administered to a horse , he has deposed ; and then the evidence is wound up by the testimony of the _reporter , who swears positively to having seen the fatal blow struek _. thus providentially _warn-I ' ng the guilty assassin that no crime can be hidden from Him whose privilege alone it is to give life and take it away . \ " Gentlemen , I shall now leave this inipor- _' , tant case in your hands , confidently trusting
in your sense of justice , and relying upon vou to return such a verdict as will satisfy your own consciences , the ends of justice , and the feelings of the friends of the deceased ; leaving upon their minds no other imp ression than that a criminal act , whether committed in the dark , or the result of * OPEN AND ADVISED' deliberation and recommendation [ will be promptly met and speedily avenged by the laws of England —the laws of the country whose people are justly proud of tbeir
LOVE OF LIBERTY . " ( The Jury immediately retired , and , after air absence of two hours and eleven minutes , re-j turned into court , when the foreman , amid a breathless silence , returned the following special verdict : — lj " We find , that for a length of time there has existed a deep conspiracy against the life . ' of thedeceased , LIBERTY ; the seeds of which ] were sown as early as the year 1794 , and con- "; tinued to increase to the year 1832 , when _, deceased was placed under the medical super- _^ intendance of Drs Grey , Melbourne , and , IRussell ; and that the object of the conspira- ] tors was , so to overawe deceased as to compeL him to leav * e the management and government ' of his vast estates , at home jind abroad , to ] those parties .
a "We further find , that on the 23 rd of ; _iNovember _, 184 f , Drs Russell and Peel , being _; _Ipossessed of the devil , and not having the fear * i lof God in their hearts , did upon that day con- _^ Ispire against the life of the deceased , and we , afiirther find , that on the morning of the _lOtlu | of April , a _* id when the deceased was of soundi | mind , the said Drs Peel and Itussell communi- ' cated their evil intentions to Dr Wellington / and that they , together with the said Dr ; iWellington , did attempt to administer a dose _^ lof deadly poison to thedeceased , and that , 1 upon the refusal of deceased to take the said _Pfnoisofi , and while in u state of perfect sanity , '
Ithe deceased was committed to St James ' s Lunatic Asylum , and that while lying there in a state of insensibility , caused by previous 1 excitement , he received a stab under the Ibladebone , and which PENETRATED TO _IhIS LUNGS ; and we find that the deceased I lingered till two o ' clock on Saturday last , and I that the blow so struck by tbe said Dr Russell sfhvas the immediate cause of death ; and we further find , that Drs Peel , Wellington , Grey , Hobhouse , Palmerston , Lauouchere , Macaulay _, I Campbell , Lansdowne , as accessories before iand after the fact , and consequently principals I in murder , together with the said Dr Russell , _^ guilty of the wilful murder of
IMMORTAL CONSTITUTIONAL LIBERTY . " _^ The verdict was received with loud shouts trom a densely-crowded court , and were responded to by the cheers of thousands from without . The Coroner immediatel y issued his warrant for the apprehension of the culprits , who , we understand , have been arrested , and will be
j triedat the approaching Special Commission at _jtne Old Bailey , and whose fate we shall not attempt to prejudge , as ifc is the boast of the _English Constitution that the accused shall be presumed innocent until he is found guilty by a jury ol his Peers ..

I | | § Mr W , _Wiuumi , late M . P , for Coventry , said ho j _^ coald sot concur In the latter portion of this addrest _gwhloh tended to express a confidence in the government _j , and in the present Parliament . Now he _mustconfeo | that he bad ne _oonfidenoe whatever ia either . He be . I _jEliered that he was telling tbe truth when he asserted _hig conviction , that tho country at large had not the slight * est confidence cither in the present government or Pat . _fi lament . _U Mr _Stahvobd rose to order—he considered the latter if Statement of Mr Williams p » rfectly ridiculous . I Mt _WilliiKs contended that he was perfectly in order ¦
; No man was more desirous tban he was to give expreB . ? ;» ioa to hie _loyalty and attachment to the Sovereign but fhe would not submit that such expression should ' b _« _^ coup led with an implied confidence in the present Com . _fmons House of Parliament , or in the present government , _XlAe could not look forward with any hope that , by such a I Parliament , the _grieTaoces under which the ' peopio oj _; this country laboured , and of which they so justly com , j plained , would be redressed . Having such a feeling , he , _i would suggest that tho last paragraph of the address '' should bo struck out .
a Mr Sodbm felt disposed to support the views of the I'hou . member , Mr Wiliiams , He believed that it was ad . _Emitted on all hands , and even in that vestry , that the go . I ' vernmont had not the _confidence of tha people at large , £ , He begged to say that the feeling whieh was exhibited f _^ on Monday week throughout the metropolis was no f * eU i iug in favour of the government . Every one , although _^ they were sworn In as special constables , was of opi . ' nlon that the people were sufftring great evil from ; . ' a bad government and bad legislation , and that a great _£ and sweeping remedy was immediately necessary . I Mr NichoIi & t moved as an amendment , tbat the last
j paragraph , ' Trusting to your Majesty and the wisdom of ¦ ' Parliament to redress any real grievances under which | any penlon of your Majesty ' s subjects may be at present | _labo-aring , ' should bo withdrawn , _w After some discussion , tbe question was put , and the _^ amendment declared to be los t , and on the original ; - question being put , Mr W . Wiliiams expressed his intention of moviag > another amendmont . There was a portion ot tbe address which spoke of * attempts lately made , or threatened to _isba made , in several parti of hop Majesty ' s dominions , _; , calculated to disturb the peaca and security of the couq » try at largo . ' Now , he thought if they went to thc foot i of the Throne with an address , care should be taken
_fj that such an address contained _nothing but that which | was strictly truo . Well , then , he ( Mr _Willia-as ) be . i ; lieved that there was no attempt in any part of her Ma . I _jesty ' e dominions to do what this address insinuated , ' ¦ _[ If tbere was any alarm created in the public mind , it bad [ been created by the government _thsmselras aud tbeir i emissaries , to enable th _« m to carry such a bill as that _;; called the Gagging Bill and other coercive measures , to tf prevent the people from giving any pnbiic expression of _>' their opinions and feelings as to the conduct of ths go . is vemment . He bulleved tbere never had been auy _raaj j £ ground ef alarm , and ho defied Mr Joseph , or auy one else _s'to prove that such was the case . He therefore thought ¦ ? that tbe words he had quoted should be struck out .
. . . _Subsequently the amendment waa withdrawn , andthe ) . ; prooeediogg _terminated ; I DONCASTER , _Satdbdat . —At a meeting of liberal _^ electors held hero l * st night , the chair was taken by William Chadwlck , Esq , of _Arksey , near _DancaBter _, an _g extensive landed propiietor . _Amengst the resolutions _^ adopted was the following : — } i , ' That the meeting , being deeply impieased with the if necessity for farther reform , recommends the forming of _t _? an association , bavin ; in view tbe union of the middle _| and working classes , the _object of which sheuld be tho k Extension of the Suffrage and other important reforms , ' Bfj la moving this resolution , the speaker said tbe princi . Pple « on which the middle and working classes had now Kset their mind were those advocated in the People ' s
Charter .

Mr _Iknes , paper-ruler , proposed the second ri solution , which demanded the dismissal of _ministers Mr John Stewart , papier . _machie-manufacturer , _proposed th _» third _resolution , which regarded with _feelinjo of hope the groat movement now organising nnder the leadership of Joseph Hume , Richard Cobden , John Bright , and o _' . her Reformers ofthe House of _Cammona . i Mr MSN 3 IE 9 moved the fourth _isolation , _approving oil the proposal for forming a People ' s _league , to effect a union ofthe working and middle classes . The resolutions were all carried by acclamation _^ waa also a petition to Parliament in accordance , and tho _meeting quietly separated .
