HAB . YLEBONE . The nomination of candidates to represent this borough in the next Parliament took place at three o ' clock , on Thursday _afternoon , at the upper end of PortUnd . plaee . near the Rcgent ' s-park ; where a very lar « e and , for the most part , _respectably bi'dv « if persons had assembled some time before the appoint d hour . ; the windows and balconies of the _surrounding houses being also filled with well-dressed lad ' us ; aud we should not omit to state that the plitform itself was graced by the appearance of many of ihe softer sex . . -
Mr llovenden proposed , and Mr Smart seconded . Sir B . Hall , the late member . Air Kempatead and Air _Hyd" nominated Sir J . Hamilton , the Conservative . Mr J . Wood and Mr Bramwall , moved Air Serjeant Slwe . Afr Daniell and Air Csssell Dominated Lord Budley Stuart . The peculiar feature of this election , however , was the appearance of the venerable leader of Socialism , as a candidate . Air Lloyd Joses appeared to propose Air Robert Owen . ( Cheering . ) _InproposinE thatgentlemap _. it was not his intention , especially in the excited st « e of t ' w meeting , to say _anything offensive to either « f the other candidates . He believed , if any good could be doue upon these occasions , it must be by a calm st . tement of true principles , and by acalm
deliberation upon those princip les , on the part ofthose who _weie called upon to vete . Mr Owen had never shrunk tram the ordeal of public inquiry ; and it w _.-is no b' any sort of political tergiversation , but fcom the _attention he con-idered to be due to right princip _' e * , and his desire to carry ihero out , that he w ished to he a member ofthe _legislature . Ue ( Mr J _mesj _iironostd Mr Owen , because he had been the _agitat-i , anl ft under , and carrier out of the infant scnool system (• : _&««>); because he insisted that every British-born subject was entitled to the highest education uie state could afford him ; and also _because he _<< ad b _* en the originator of the agitation for
shortening labour in factories ( _cheerinc ) at a . time when he stood alone . He had declared , when there was an _agitation forthe abilition of the duty on raw otton . that he would not advocate that measure , unless a portion of the benefit was conferred upon the working pecple . He ( Mr Jones ) _admitted that Mr Owen had no parliamentary career to look back O « on z but why should they esptct less from the _declawii'in and _pledjj's of MrOwen than if they sent members to parliament who were men of lath and plaster ? For these reasons , he proposed that gentleman as a man prepared and able to argue for the rights of the people , and the general interests of the empire . ( AIu _. Ji cheering . )
Air Williams , in a few words , seconded the nomination . The other candidates having addressed the assembly , the Times thus reports the conclusion oi thc proceedings - — Mc R . O . tex was tbe fourth candidate , and on presenting himself wag _received with every mark of Tespect by all parlies . He told the people that he h : irfcome from America on purpose to see whether something permanent could not be done , first ef all for Ireland , and then for ihe working classes of this country . ( Cheers . ) What was chiefly required was the _education ofthe people . Many years ago he gave his support to the Lu . _casterian school system , and alio to the system introduced by Dr Bell , both of
which finally agreed on admitting into the schools _thechildren ot all religious denominations . By educating tbeir children , an enlightened public opinion would be created . The next great want was _employment This was a subject which ought to enter into the consideration of the government much more than it . appeared to do . He hoped the government would form arrangements which should give beneficial employment to every individual in the two islands who could not find employment for themselves . He could not understand the policy or tbe justice of compelling industrious individuals , who wished to be employed in creating wealth , to remain idle when they could create more wealth than would support them .
Wore he to have a seat in the House of Commons , what he would reiterate would be , that it was-the duty of the Legislature to make arrangemeats so that there should not be one British child allowed to be brought up in ignorance , bad habits , and under vicious and inferior circumstances ; and , in the next place , that there 6 hou ! d never be at any time one individual willing to work who should not have productive employment provided for him- Until the people were educated they would never be able to enjoy freedom of election ; for the educated classes would always keep them down and oppress them . It was , therefore , impolitic sad most unwise on the part ol the Dissenters to _oppose that amount of ed oca tion which the government proposed to give . The
birthright of every man in society was , that the government should make arrangements by which he might be well fed , well clothed , well lodged , and well educated . But how was tbat to be done ? He believed every one of the candidates would willingly make such arrangements if they knew how . He had been a practical man for fifty years ; and he had all the measures prepared—they vere ready ent and dried , by which the government conld with ease obtain these four objects . These beneficial results could not be obtained except by one simple plan . Air Owen was about to explain his plan , but the patience of his auditors had become exhausted ; and amidst very good-humoured cries of " Oh ! Robert J" and " Time , time 1 " the worthy gentleman withdrew .
The Returning Offieer then called for a show of hands . For Sir B . Hall there was a good display : a less number tor Sir J Hamilton ; a larger for Mr Serjeant Shee ; a very fair number for Lord Dudley Stuart , and ( to our apprehension ) _thelargest number for Mr Owen . The Returning Offieer declared the show to be in favour of Sir B . Hall and Mr Seijeant Shee . A poll was thereupondemandedby Sir J . Hamilton and Lord Dudley Stuart . There can be jio doHbt of the fact thus vouched for by the Ernes . Mr Owen had decidedly the largest show of hands , Air Serjeant Shee being the next . CLOSE OF IBS POU . Hall ... ... ... 5 008

_TIVERTON . Mr Xou & x IUbsey _, ihe Chartist candidate , arrived here on Tuesday evening , and was met at the _entrance-of the town by a large body of the people , who received him with . the utmost enthusiasm . Several _attempts were made to unyoke tfee horses of ihe carriage in which Mr Serney arrived , the people < being anxious themselves to - " draw " him into the down , Air Harney would not , _however , peraait _anything of the sort . On getting into the heart-of the town an immense multitude wts found assembled in Jsre-street , anxiously waiting io hear the sentimcetsof the popular candidate .

Bebuososey Locatur.—Mr Frederick Jeffrie...
_Bebuososey LocAtur . —Mr Frederick Jeffries is elected Secretary of . _ihis locality .
THF DUDLEY CAMP MEETING . Sunday last was a glorious day for Chartism in Dudley and the neighbourhood . Notwithstanding the many base and unmanly attempts to suppress the above meeting , it was held in despite of unprincipled opponents , Thelarge placards , with very few exceptions , were no sooner put up than they were plastered over with other bills , and the small ones shared the same fate . The authorities threatened to arrest the leaders , thinking to intimidate them , and thereby stop proceedings , ( not only in -Dudley , but also at the preliminary meeting held at Bilston in the morning , ) but it was " no go "—real , staunch , honest Chartists are not so easily driven from their
purpose . Even the formidable array of servile policemen , who were marched on to thc ground by the Dudley authorities , bad not the desired effect ; the meeting was held , and a more attentive , more peaceablci or better conducted meeting it was ' never our let to witness . The various speakers were highly gratified with tke profound attention the assembled thousands gave them ; and on the other hand , the people were evidently well pleased with every speaker . This meeting proves to demonstration , that the public _mindh ; improving rapidly , and that ere long the principles of democracy will be firmly established .
Mr O'Connor arrived at two o ' clock , and when he _ascen-en the platform , the waving of hate , the clapping of hands , and cheering ; was tremendous !! Air O'Connor ' s being under the necessity of leaving at three o ' clock to attend to his duties at Nottingham , altered the arrangements of the committee . They intended Mr O'Connor to be nearly tbe last speaker , _ins ' tead of which he was obliged to speak first , and when he left , crowds of people followed him off the ground . When Messrs O'Connor and Doyle got into the coach , the spontaneous cheering of tbe whole meeting , ( with the exception of the policemen and their drivers , ) was truly astounding . ¦ ¦ ¦
Air Samuel Cook , Draper Vf Dudley , was unanimously called to the chair , and in a brief but argumentative speech , clearly convinced the meeting that we had an indubitable right , to meet to do good even on the Sabbath-day , and after reading the placard convening the meeting , he introduced Mr O'Connor to move the following resolution , and Mr O'Connor certainly did justice to the subject , both Whigs and Tories coming in for a share of his thunder . The authorities of Dudley will long remember the drubbing thty got fwm Mr O'Connor . He rivetted the attention ofthe multitude to his discourse , and bas made a lasting impression in favour of Chartism . The following is the resolution : —
" That we are of opinion the object of every government should be to promote the happiness" of the people , and tbatthe best way to accomplish-this , is to cultivate ourresources at home , in preference to placing ourselves at the mercy Of foreigners for the necessaries of life . We are further of opinion that it is the duty of government to support and accelerate tbe progress of , the National Co-operative Land Plan established by Feargus O'Connor , Esq . " At ths conclusion of Mr O'Connor ' s address , Air Doyle made a brief speech , in which _hejclearly proved , thatit was not only the dutyjbut the interest of every Laud member to support " the _principles of Cfcirtism .
Air Thomas Almond seconded the resolution with feelings of pleasure , because he felt convinced that practical Chartism was the only means by which the working population could better their condition . He also felt satisfied the corn-law nostrum had proved a complete failure , and declared that he had been worse situated since Cobden ' s measure passed than before . He asked tbe huge mass of working men assembled before him , if thev had derived any benefit from a repeal of the corn-laws ? to which the whole assembly responded in the negative , and declared tbey were decidedly worse off than they had been previously . The Chairman then introduced Mr John Chance , of Stourbridge , to move tbe following resolution , whicii he did in a powerful and argumentative speech , in which he clearly proved that " as God had made man equal , * man had no right to create an inequality .
Air Chance then read the following resolution : — "That we , the people here assembled , believe all men are equal in the si ght of God , and that all men ought to enjoy an equal share of political power . We are further of opinion that the document called the People ' s Charter is tbe only measure which will confer any real or permanent benefit on the working classes , and for these reasons we are determined to use every legil , peaceable and constitutional means to get the six points of the People ' s Charter passed into law , and to be satisfied with nothing less . " _AlrNixoji , of Stourbridge , in a very powerful and eloquent speech , expounded the six points of the People's Charter , and seconded the resolution . Mr FossEtL , in a neat and eloquent speech , inwhich be showed the necessity of supporting Chartist candidates at the general election , moved the following resolution : —
"' That in order to carry ont the former resolution , we hereby pledge ourselves individuall y , and collectively , to use every possible effort to raise funds to carry Chartist candidates at ihe general election . " Afr Boom , of Smethwick , seconded the resolution . Mr Goodfello w , in a clean and lucid speech , replete with sound argument , moved the following resolution : — "Thatwe take tbis opportunity of manifesting our confidence in Feargus O'Connor , Esq ., and his brother directors , and all other honest advocates of the people ' s rights , and return them our sincere thanks for the many determined efforts they have made and are still making to procure freedom and independence of the working daises . "
Tbe Chairman then announced that Mr Linney , of Bilston , would offer himself as a candidate for the borough of Dudley , on Chartist principles in , opposition to Mr Benbow , the Tory candidate . \ This announcement was received -with thunders of applause . Mr Liksbt , in seconding tbe resolution , showed the meeting the great services which Mr O'Connor and his brother directors had conferred upon the working classes . He declared that Air O'Connor had laboured disinterestedly as no man had ever
laboured before , and tbat be highly merited the respect and confidence of every working man . Air L . _ateo passed high encomiums on every other honest and tried advocate of tbe people ' s rights . He then addressed the people in reference to contesting the election , and declared that he would not consent to give np one iota of the principles contained in the People ' s Charter . In short , he _declared he wonld sacrifice every social and domestic comfort , rather than sacrifice his avowed principles . The resolutions were all carried without a
dissentient . Air Linnet proposed and Air Nixon seconded a vote of thanks to the chairman , wbich was carried unanimously . The meeting then dispersed in the _mos peaceable manner . _AauoTOX . —The Men of Aclacton having heard and read , from the Star , an address from the Central Registration aud _Etettum Committee , catting on all true friends to progression ; agree to render all the assistance in their power to effect the return of Chartist candidates to parliament , by a subscription for that purpose .
Halifax . —Un Sunday last , a district delegate meeting of the Chartists of this locality was held in the Working-man ' s Hall , _Bullclose-lane , when delegates from Warley , Alidgley , Stainland , Alixenden , _Queenshead 4 Jenney Green , Ovenden , and Halifax , were present It was unanimously agreed tbat each delegate should use his influence in his own locality , to induce their members to assist the men of Halifax to secure the return of Messrs Jones and Miall—the meeting was _adjourned to Sunday , August 1 st , to beholden in the same place , at two o clock in the afternoon .
National _Regsjcratio . v and _Cestbav _Eivcnoa Committee . —At a meeting held at the Assembly Rooms . S 3 , Dean-street , Soho , on Tuesday evening , July 21 th , Mr _Willias ! Cnffay in the chair , most cheering reports were received from Halifax , Nottingham . Derby , Blackburn , and Sheffield , and several sums of money were voted in support of those boroughs whece the parties _ictend proceeding to the poll , and assistance wns needed . A deputation from the Nottingham Election Committee attended , and was most cordially received . Tbe deputation assured the committee , fro * n the excellent feeling that pervaded , no doubt could hs entertaiued of Mr O'Connor ' s triumphant return .

To The Members Of The National Land Comp...
TO THE MEMBERS OF THE NATIONAL LAND COMPANY . Feiends , —I feel it to bo my duty again to address you , and once more afford an illustration of the triumphant progress ofour society . On Wednesday , the 14 th of July , I addressed a large open air meeting ia Hanley Potteries , Between 50 and 60 members were enrolled . Indeed , tho enrolment of members in tbis district exceeds tbe expectations of the most enthusiastic in the cause . Last night 48 new members joined—receipts £ 40 lis . and the whole number now amounts to 350 .
On Friday , the 16 th , I addressed a considerable meeting in _Tunstji , which would have been much augmented , had I been enabled to balance a plate on tbe end of my stick , or a ladder on the end of my chin . The whole population , with the exception of my meeting , were assembled to see some mountebanks going through their _manoeuvres . On Sunday afternoon , tbe 18 tb , I addressed a full gathering on the Crover Bank , Hanley . This place is connected with old associations , and the police seemed to think so too , for I had a guard of 30 blues on the Wednesday . Ou . f peaceful deme & uauv , _hovsever , disarmed these gentry . On Monday , the 19 th , I _lectuved in liongton , in tbe People ' s Hall , to a considerable and most attentive audience . '
Oa Tuesday the grand trial cane off at _Newcastleunder-Lyne . I was informed that my head would be broken if I presumed to speak about the Charter and land in the great stronghold of tho enemy . That threat , as a matter of course only determined me to speak in Newcastle at all _hazards . I accordingly walked over alone , and at the appointed time I met seme of my pottery friends in the market place . To my utter astonishment I found the authorities had erected a temporary hustings , on which I mounted without any hesitation , and commenced my address . But we very soon found out oor mistake , for the police made a rush the moment I denounced the aristocrats and a land monopoly , and our apple cart was upset .
