SEX 3 HX 32 T . ChtjbcS Ratb . —On Friday last a meeting was Jeld in the 'Vestry of the Parish Churcb , pursuant to ^ n otice © T the churchwardens , to lay a rate for the repair * seeS expenses of the church , Sec . The intention of 4 be Churcb party : bad been to lay our of 6 d . in tbeponnd ,. one-half of which was to go towards jnreia < nBg a new hearse ; but through the apparent difficulty of coming at a rate at all , the churchwardens reluctantly brougbt forward a fresh estimate for one o"f " 21 . in the pound . The business of the meeting wss opened in a rather angular manner by Mr . « F . B . Aked appointing nin » 3 « lf as chairmaBj without even consulting the meeting on the subject . This mloofced-for effrontery caused some little sur-¦ p rise ; but through the well-known character of ' the
meividual , whose innumerable conversions to nearly til kinds of creeds and political opinions have renjfer ed him notorious , the anti-rate party allowed 4 an , by way of joke , to taxe the chair , which be « id with all the self-assumed importance of a Turk presiding in a coart of justice . After the bursts of merriment produced on this occasion bad subsided , Mr . Joseph "Wri ght , one of the churchwardens , moTed—that a rate of M . in the pound be granted ; ¦ when Mt . Town , of l ' nrkey Mill moved as an amendment —^ that the meeting be adjourned to that iay twelve month ? . Mr . Jonathan "Wfaidey , a Btannch advocate for voting other people ' s money cut of their pockets , througb fear of being too late , immediately demanded a poll , without waiting to see ¦ whether there was a chance for a rate or not . The
notion fcr a twelve month 8 adjournment -was then jut , and ' carried by a large majority . Mr . John Smith next proposed—that the rate party , demandfag a poll , should pay all its expenses ; when an indescribable scene of confusion arose , througb the chairman mounting up in the chair , and declaring iis determination not to put the motion . After being repeatedly ' ' called upon to obey the -wishes of the meetiss-, he grew tenfold more uproarious ., and Mr . John Bamsden was voted into the chair , in hu place . Tnis new insult to bis dignity was not to be borne ; and be immediately commenced threatening to have nearly the whole of the meeting
taken up for daring to insult iam as chairman , Lvfaa Mr . John Wattrhouse , losing all patience , tookiim gently en Ms baek and conveyed him ont d the chair . To indulge the Church party , and ihew that they wished to give them fair play , it was greed upen that they should haye a poll , to commence that afternoon , and continue open from nine o ' clock , in the morning till four ia . the afternoon , on t& 8 Uonday and Tuesday following . The meeting f » just upon the point of entering the proceedings is the cburch order-book , wben it was discovered ihat tie first chairman , either through revenge or some other cause not more honourable , had decamped
Trim the cry raTtrng the meeting , and could not be found- After sea : ching for him an hour -or two ¦ without elect , be at last made bis appearance again , mi informed the astonished meeting that he had come to open the poll , and all persons prepared to ¦ rote were to do so , and go about their business This demand , though quite unreasonable , was fiaally acceded * o the Churcb party , who appeared inxa the -Fery < £ rsfc -determined to shew no fair play . He poll accordingly commenced at the time ap-IBBtedj-and tlosed on the Tuesday night following , Jesting the rate party in a minority of about 50 . Ending themselves fairly defeated , in spite of all fte " ten thousand tricks and unfair contrivances
fey used in "Behalf of their favourite ' object , &ej next , as a last resource , demanded a scrutiny , « y ^ h was also granted them ^ and after allowing fiism to riddle tbe votes to their ieart ' s content , a iaotty majority of 32 was still left against them . Asthis majority was too evident to be got quit of , by Sir means , they made an attempt to do away with ii by lie honourable method of imposing upon the loblis by false statements , which they , however , wrebeen happily prevented from-doing , by the pub-Idnng of the real state of the poll . This contest , ike Dearly all others which have taken place on tonilar occasions , was conducted < m the side of the
nte party with a degree of intolerance peculiar to tbe supporters of Church and State . At the close of fcs vestry meeting , when the adjournment was ended , an order was immediately given ( some say tj the Sector ) to stop both clock and bells , Tijcbkare since continued silent ; and dnring fie whole time of the contest , the church has fea . besieged with large swarms of emloyers , pa , and informers , stationed on purpose to take « gmzance of honest workmen who dared to vote * ? ain 5 t their own or their neighbours' money being frfceB out of their pockets without their consent ; srerilqf whomwe are informed , bave already been
, feeate ^ ed with loss of employment for so doing . & several eese 3 the principal manufacturers have tJren public notice amongst their workpeople to vote " ** e for die rate ; and ia one particular case a Eister tailor not a hundred miles from the Old Methodist -Chapel , and a thorough Uadieal in prinfirie wu politely informed by two of his customers fiat if he did not vote in favour of the rate they * ur id carry their work somewhere t-lse ; Even the pave-di gger actuated by the spirit of bis party is Jsported by numerous accounts to bave actually 1 * fosed to toll the bell for a deceased person without
« "ing siipennywortb of spirits allowed before he « gan , merely , because the party requesting him ** s opposed to the rate . Yet it is somewhat extrapfinarr that with all the influence they conla bring Oto the field and although they employed 'dozens of Jersonsin running far and near in quest of "voters , « s anti-rate party without so much as using the lig htest exertion or scarcely employing a single SSvidual to canvass on their side , gained a very « osive majority , aad that too , without the aid of fcadreds of the labouring class wbo never came to ^ pollatall .

BRADFORD . Northbr-s Union . —A public meeting of this body was held pursuant to notice in the Odd ^ Fellows Hall , on Monday night last , when about three hundred of the members received their medals . Committees were also formed to make arrangements for the great demonstration on Peep Green ; great numbers are daily enrolling themselves . The Radicals of Horton also held a weeting on Tuesday evening , ittbe house of Mr . Dales , theDwce Inn . The room was crowded to excess , several very excellent speeches were delivered , and a branch of the Northern Union was formed , when about one hundred , and fifty persons enrolled themselves as members .
lNQOESTS . —On Friday last , an inquest was held before G . Dvson , Esq ., coroner , at the honse of Mr . Joseph -Greenwood , the Rock and Heifer Inn , Thornton , on view of the body of a boy about four years of age , ? on of Henry Speight , a delver , of that plaee . It appeared that tbe cbild met bis death by the lighting of a match at the fire when undressed , which set fire to his night-clothes . Verdict , " Accidental dea * b . " On Thursday last , an inquest was held at the Hare and Hounds Inn , North Bierley , on view of tbe body of Abraham Hutchinson , an infant , ased two months , whos , e death was occasioned by being shut up in a bed . Terdict " Accidental ' Death . "
Accujtekt . —On "Wednesday last asa man named Thomas Priestley , in the employ of Mr . David Knowles , worsted manufacturer , of Queen ' s Head , was driving his master ' s horse and cart at that place , the animal being very spirited , set off at full speed , to-overtake one a little in advance . The driver stepped ont of the cart to take hold of the animal ' s head , when he was forced down by the horse , -which trod , upon his head , aDd the wheel of the cart passed over him . He lies in a state of extreme suffering , without hopes of recovery .
Over Poptjxatiox . —We have to notice a particular instance of over population in this town ; a woman residing at the back of George ' s-street , buried her hnsband about eleven months ago , and would not be satisfied to spend the remainder of her life as a disconsolate widow , with six children and herself about forty years of age . She was again marr ied about six months since to a yonng maa named Murgy , twenty-two years of age , and who no doubt was strangely surprised by having his wife brought to bed , on the night of " Monday last , of three children , two girls and a boy , one of whom however . died on Wednesday evening ; the remaining two offer very fair to remain here for some time
Another instance of a similiar kind occurred in Bowling last week , a . woman of the name of Tankard , in addition to a large family , presented her husband with two fine children at . a birth , which with the mother appear to do well . It appears evident that population will progress in despite of thereasonings of Mr . Malthus and bis followers . We think the best means of cheesing this tremendous increase , would be to let the working men have their fair share of the productions of the earth , as we scarcely ever find two or three children at one time , in the houses of those who enjoy its luxuriant productions . The individuals aboye named , are a weaver and a comber .
TTAT . TyA ^ g . Mottnt Tabor , Ovendon . —On " Wednesday , the 3 rd inst ., a public meeting was held at the above place , in support of tbe Wesley an Missionary cause . Tbe Rev . Mr . Gillmor , incumbent of Illingworth , and the Rev . Mr . Preston , of MixeDden , addressed the meeting , together with Messrs . Roberts and Kav G . B . Brown , Esq ., was in the chair . A public tea party was held on the same occasion , before the meeting .
West Riding Meeting . —On Saturday evening last , a number of delegates attended from the Radical Associations in the out-townships , at th Labour and Health , Soutbgate , in this town , for the purpose of determining how they should support the getting up of the Great West Riding Meeting , to be held on Peep Green , on the loth inst . They were unanimous in agreeing to their equal shares in the general expenses ; and a voluntary subscription
was determined on to be raised for the purpose of paying for a band " of music . The labouring classes are thus showing their earnestness in taking up the question of Universal Suffrage . " Now or never , " is the pass-word for their future liberties . No call is now made on their richer neighbours to unloose their purse-strings , to aid in this glorions straggle for independene and liberty ; but every heart feek warm in the cause ; and their mites are thrown together , like a band of heroes determined for the
fight . Mechanics' Institution . —The anniversary of this institution was held in the Large Room , Northgate Hotel , in this town , on Tuesday evening last . The Rev . Mr . Turner , president of the Institution for the last year , was unanimously called on to take the chair . He opened the business of the meeting by stating the views and objects contemplated in establishing such institutes , and in a concise manner ga > e an account of the progress which had been made since its commencement , together with the present amount of its members , which he observed bad been considerably increased during the
last year ; but the numbpr was only very small when compared with the population of the town and neighbourhood , The secretary was then introduced to read tbe report for the past year , but did it in such a manner as though he bad previously determined the pnblic should not be favoured with its contents t ill it appeared in print . The following Rev . Gentlemen addressed the meeting on different resolutions which were placed in their hands , viz . Mr . Gillmor , Mr . Pridie , and Mr . Ewing . John Abbott , Esq . spoke to one of the resolutions in a vtry poetic speech , which seemed to exrract from tiis Rev . Mr . Pridie a number of complimentary
remarks . He said in allusion to it that the manner in which it was delivered , one would have supposed that tbe gentleman was a profound mathematician , so well had" he delineated the differenr parts and "bearing ? , or that he had done nothing but study poetry all the days of his life ; howe # r , it would be- a proof in future that he could make a speech , and would , therefore , leave him inexcusable on any after occasion . Mr . John Holt , corn dealer , had to speak-to a resolution in reference to the ladies , in which they were complimented , and at the first seemed to haTe so much of the old bachelor in him as nearly to-forget how to perform the part of the
gallant which was due on this occasion ; however , he succeeded in delivering a very excellent speech , and from the high-toned sentiments he expressed in commendation of the ladies' ' single-blessedness ' mkst hereafter be very painful to him ; and the next time he writes comments on ' lady lectures' he will , perhap * , learn to deal more leniently with them , as the effusion he delivered seems to indicate that they have got "all at once into great repute with him , both as te tbeir capabilities and influence in society A number of gentlemen moved and seconded other resolutions ; bat being withont gpeech they contented
themfclyts by reading them without comment . E . Akroyd , "' Esq . was appointed president for the . en . suing year , and . 3 , Abbott and Michael Stocks , -Eajre . vice-presidents . Other appointments were also named ,, and . gentlemen fixed on to discharge the separate . duties connected with them ; after which Mr . D . Ramsden , corn dealer , made a speech in seconding a . resolution , which brought all the audience into a complete state of laoghter and applause , . A Vote of thanks was moved to the ebairmanj by Mr . Turner , for iiis impartial ijpnduct in the chair , when he returned tfonis ; and . Jlje meeting separatea- jibout ten o ' clock .

M ^———Literary and Philosophical Socibty . — The yearly meeting of this society took place on Monday last , in their room , in this town . Borough Voting . — -Wm . Kay , Wm . Gray , and A . Cieasby , Esqs ., barristers at-. law , have appointed Saturday the 6 th inst ., as the day on which they will hold their court for revising the list of voters for . this borough , at the Talbot Inn , in this town . Order of the Golden Fleece . —The members belonging to this lod ge atQueensheadnear this town , have intimated their intention of attending at Round Hill , on Sunday next , to hear Mr . Wm . Thornton preach , in the Primitive Methodist Chapel , at that place . They intend walking in procession from the lodge roomat Queensheadto Round LITERARY AND PlHLOSOPHinAT . SnrTTt-rv —
, , Hill . DEWSBUBY . ' _ The Geeit West-Riding Meeting . —The Radicals of this town and neighbourhood are making great preparations for the coming demonstration of Radical principles on Hartshead-moor . A number of new banners with various inscriptions are in coarse of preparation for the great day on which the people of this Riding must decide whether they will be
any longer slaves or free men . Six bands of music , we believe , are engaged for the Dewsbury procession . The Mowing places are to be headed with music and banners :--Dewsbury , Wakefield , amd Ossett ; Chickenley and Earlsheaton ; Hanging Heaton , Dawgreen , and Batley-Carr . The procession is to form in the market-place ; when every working man we hope , will on that day be found in the ranks for Hartshead-moor . England expects on that day that every man will do his duty .
Chimes . —The tuneful chimes belonging to the Parish Church of Dewsbury bave been repaired after being useless for nearl y ten years . They recommenced chiming - pon Thursday last with the Belle Isle March . This astonished the natives with not having heard themv ^ r long a time . They have been repaired throughs the instrumentality of Mr . John Peel , whose unwearied and individual exertion in two days has raised the handsome amount of twenty pounds . - - Constable of Dewsbury . —The Intelligencer had a paragraph last week stating , "That though Mr . W . Kewsome was " appointed at a vestry meeting , he was in fact only appointed by the Radical
Association , and that the respectable inhabitants have been so often and so grossly insulted at the parish meetings , that they now refrain from attending , " and " that there cannot be a doubt of the practicability of sending to the right about those shoeless , shirtless , shameless persons who form the greater part of ttueh meetings at Dewsbury , if the respectable inhabitants will but once come forward and determine to do their own business . " From this it may be inferred , that at the late meeting which unjustly passed a church-rate , there was no respectable person present ; and that " in fact" the decision was not the decision of the inhabitants , but of a now respectable faction . The language of the renegade funtionary who has honoured the Intelligencer with thi
s paragraph cannot be mistaken , as he ever delights in sneering at those who honestly labour for the bread which perisheth . If the greater part of the Dewsbury meetings be composed of shirtless and shoeless persons , it is the misfortune of the individuals , not their crime , for that they are rate-payers interested in the meetings they attend will not be denied ; but that they are so shameless as the author of this paragraph , who , no doubt , prides himself in being considered one of the respectables , can never justly be charged upon them , and it would be well for their calumniator to consider whether , if he were to follow their exa mple in acquiring the scanty pittance awarded to honest toiling industry , and clearing scores as he jogged along , he would not himself be sometimes both shirtless and shoeless ?
Radical Association . —On Wednesday evening last , a Radical Association was formed at Chickenley . The meeting was unanimously attended , and several interesting addresses were delivered upon the fundamental principles of Radicalism , after which a great number enrolled their names as a pledge of their determination to demand their rights which are so unjustly held by that class whom they have to support . The meeting dissolved at an early hour , all seeming highly gratified with the proceedings of the evening .
Phrenology . —Next week , Mr . F . Bridges will deliver a course of lectures on Phrenology in tbe Methodist New Connection ' s Sunday School . It appears from the placards which Mr . B . lias put forth that he is confident that the tendency of Phrenology is good , for . he challenges those persans who donot think with him to discussion , which will make tb " lectures doubly interesting on this important subject . Mr . B . we have nodoubt will give satisfaction to all persons who may attend , and he also does himself much credit by making his terms of admission within the reach of all parties .
Coach Accident . —On Thursday last , as the Eclipse coach from Manchester to Hull was entering this town , it was upset and several passengers were slightly hurt . A gentleman from near Wakefield had his leg broke ; he was taken to the Hope and Anchor Inn where medical assistance was called in and we understand he is in a fair way of recovery . No other accident of a serious nature was received , and the passenger ' s escape upon the whole we think very fortunate . The cause of the coach upsetting was owing to one of the fore axletrees breaking , which caused the wheel to fly off .
HULL . Hull Temperance Society . —The weekly meeting of this increasingly important society continues to be well attended , and numbers are addpd to the list of members . On Tuesday evening , the chair was occupied by Mr . Firth , and the meeting was addressed by Messrs . Sowers , Smith , Cavan , Horden , and Etching . Mr . Smith occupied the attention of the audience for a considerable time , in reference to the distinction between a total abstainer and a teetotaller , grounding bis remarks on a very
able article in No . XII of the Pioneer : he also directed the attention of parents , in a very forcible manner , to the evils liktly to arise from the pernicious practice of allowing children to contract an earlv liking for alcoholic drinks , declaring that those drinks were the source of the most dreadful mischief both as to the bodies , souls , and families of its votaries . Mr . Smith concluded by urging all present to come forward and aid in the moral reformation that was going on , and pledged himself to renewed exertion in the cause . At the close of the meeting several signed the teetotal pledge .
Foresters' Courts . —The Independent Order of Foresters is making rapid progress in this part of the conntry . On Sunday week % brother of the order was interred in the Catholic Chapel , which was crowded to excess ; not less than 4 , 000 persons assembled on the occasion . The Rev . J . Render , who is a bright example of what a Christian minister ought to be , officiated ; and afterwards gave an appropriate address , during which many persons
appeared deeply affected . A new court was opened on Wednesday night week , at the house of Brother Wheatley ' s , the sign of the Junction Dock , under the title of the " Star in the East , " No . 654 . On Thursday , the day following , two courts were opened , one at Bessie and the other at Barrow ; and on the following Monday a court was opened at Beverley , at the Louse of B ' rother Botteril , sign of the Black Swan whenseveral new membe rs were admitted .
Lecture on Socialism . —On Monday even ing , at the Freemason ' s Hall , Mr . Firth , Secretary to the Hull Temperance Society , and Editor of the Hull Temperance Pioneer , delivered a lecture on the moral tendency and principles of Socialism , with a view to prove that it is onl y infidelity under another name . The lecturer spoke with great fluency for more than two hours , during which time he investigated several of what are called the fundamental facts of Owenism , and undertook to disprove their favorite position , that " Man is an organised being whose character is formed for and not by him . " This position he contradicted in all its parts , denying that , as an intellectual being , man is organised
, according to the usual acceptation of the term—and asserting that the character of man is formed partly for and partly by him . The lecture being purely polemical we can offer no opinion ef its merits , but we may say that it seemed to excite great interest in a ^ ery numerous and most attentive audience . As discussion was expected at the end of the lecture the Rey . W . Hill was unanimousl y called to the chair at the commencement of the evening . The chairman said but very few words , urging merely the importance of the subject , and entreating the people to approach it with coolness and withont prejudice .
There was no opposition , save from one individual , who was unable to advance anything at all bearing on the argument of the lecture . On being informed by the chairman that he xcust keep to the question , he quietly observed , that if he must be limited to attack the arguments of the lecture , he would sit down—and accordingly did so after announcing that a course of four lectnres on the principles of Socialism would shortly be delivered , when Mr : Firthrwould be replied to , and have an opportunity in Ms turn of defending his own position . Thanks were then voted to the lecturer and the chairman j and thfmeeting separated .

: . ' . -v : ' . v / Bsxsomavmi ' \' : ' , v Quarter SESSioks . —Her Majesty ' s grantof a separate Court of Quarter Sessions of the Peace to the Borough of Richmond , was received by the worshipful the Mayor of that Borough , on Tuesday the 29 th ult ., —so that this ancient borough will now , through the exertions of the ^ council , henceforth continue to hold its quarter sessions as ; . - ' . hereto . fore ^ -The council ar e now anxiously tndeayouring to obtain the accomplishment of a ineasure which will be one of the greatest boom ever conferred ftiC » llWtr > WT >
upon that neighbourhood . By a recent act of Parliament , her Majesty is empowered , on the joint petition of the council of any borough , and the justices of the peace of the county or Riding , to extend any existing court of Record over any district or division of the county to which it may be deemed expedient to extend it . The borough of Richmond is now , ana has always been , in possession and enjoyment of its ancient court of record , and ll
aplaints , issues , &c ., not exceeding one hundred pounds in amount , may be tried therein before the recorder C . H . El 8 ley , Esq ., ; barrister-atlaw , as sole judge , the expenses attending such trial being very light , and the saving of time incalculable . The council of the borough have agreed to a petition toherMajesty for the extension of the court over the district of Riehvnondshire ; and they have memorialized the justices of the North-Riding to join with them in this petition , when there can be
no doubt that her Majesty would be graciously pleased to comply with the prayer thereof . One great advantage attending this extension , is , that suiters are not compelled to proceed in this court , they would be at liberty to do so if they thought fitting ; and though there is nothing to prevent counsel being employed in this court , vet if there should beany very difficult points of law on which they would wish to have the opinions of the judge * , they are still at liberty to bring their action in the supe ' - rior courts m London , and have it tried at the
assizes . This matter was very ably brought before the justices of th * North-Riding , at Northallerton , two sessions ago , and as not the slightest opposition from any part of | the district has bpeu made to it , and as the advantages are so very " apparent , without any disadvantages , there can be no doubt that the venerable chairman , and the whole bench , will now readily seize the earliest opportunity of securing to the public so great a benefit . The proceedin » 8 in this court are precisely of the same nature as in the superior courts , and though the saving of co < ts
to the client will be very great , the charges in court being so different , and there being no agents charges , yet the profit to the solicitor engaged willbe equal , if not superior , to that from a cause in the courts of Queen ' s Bench , or Common Pleas . Lord Prudhoe arrived at Stanwk-k , the seat of his Lordship , near Richmond , on Saturday last . Pedestrianism . —On Tuesday last , at Richmond , James Wilson , a celebrated pedestrian , undertook to walk fourteen miles in two hours , to start at the Market Cross , and walk one mile out and one mile in : he accomplished his undertaking with apparent ease three minutes within the time . He afterwards made a ( collection , and was well remunerated for his active exertions .
D ARLINGTON . Public Meeting . —During the last week a requisition was got up by a part of the Radicals of Darlington , and presented to T . Bowes , Esq ., the bailiff , requesting him to call a public meeting of the inhabitants to petition for a repeal of the Corn Laws ; but that gentleman refused to grant their request , on the ground that the requisition was not respectably signed , although several of the requisitionist 8 rent shops and premises in the central part of the town to the amount of from £ 20 to £ 30 a year ; and in one or two instances by parties possessed ef valuable freehold property .
A Present to' a Clergyman . —Some of tbe parishioners of Darlington , on Saturday last forwarded to the Rev . Thomas Webb Minton , a handsome gown and cassock , presented , as it was expressed by them , as a small token of their regard , and accompanied by the f frayera of a few of his privileged people , that he might be long favoured with health and strength to labour amongst them in word and doctrine , and in visiting the sick , clothing the naked , and feeding the hungry . There Was no public meeting called to present the above to the Rev . gentleman , and he conveyed to the gentleman appointed to present it his deep sense of the kind and affectionate spirit which had inspired his parishioners in this generous act .
WIGAN . "Wioan itsexf again . —A public meeting was held at Mrs . Robinson ' s , sign of the Bear ' Paw , to take into consideration the propriety of holding a demonstration on . Umberwood common , on Monday October the 22 nd , and that MeWs . O'Connor and Stephens , and other influential gentlemen , should be invited to attend . John Kean , jun ., was called to the chair : several resolutions were passed , and some excellent speeches made . The room is considered capable of holding five hundred persons , and it crowded to
was excess , and numbers could not gain admittance . The marked contempt with which thewould-be-tkought-respectubles treated the working classes , on this occasion , drew forth from one of the speakers an intimation that the municipal elections were at hand , and he hoped that all who could , would pay the respectables home in their own coin . A vote of thanks was given to Mr . Robinson for the free use ofthe room . A subscription was opened for defraying the expenses of the projected demonstration . The meeting separated in that orderly manner which usually characterizes the working classes .
COLNE . Radical Association at Colne . At a general meeting of , the Colne Radical Association last Monday night , it was unanimously resolved to bave a great public meeting or Radical demonstration in favour of the People ' s Charter , and to adopt the Birmingham or National Petition , on Monday , the 22 nd of the present month , and ; we confidently expect to be supported by all the surrounding towns and villages in the district . There will be a public dinner , and an evening meeting in-doors if a eonvenU ent place can he obtained . John Fielden , Esq M . P ., and the Rev . J . R . Stephens , and other gentlemen will be invited to attend .
HEVWOOD . Brutal Revenge . —A man named Tetlow appeared before the Bench at Hey wood yesterday week , charged with an assault on a married female named Mary Kay . A brother of the prisoner's , ( not in custody ) threw water on a child of complainants ; she interfered ; the defendant threw her down , and his brother ^ punched her neck out . " Complainant exhibited her nock , which fortunately for her , was speedily set right . The magistrates recommended that defendant present should make some compensation and the parties retired . :
Employer and Employed . ——On Friday , Mary Leach , a young girl , apparently a card-room hand or a weaver , was summoned before Messrs . Chadwick and Ashwortb , at Hey wood , for leaving the employ of Mr . Anthony Holmes , of Mackin Mill , without having given the due notice . The overlooker of the mill came to support the complaint , but failed in his proof , and Mr . Holmes himself shortly appeared , arid adding his deposition to that of hid overlooker , showed that she had not given notice of her intention to leave * She was to give a fortnight ' s notice ; the rules were up in the mill so that the hands could see them . The girl said she
wai « willing to return to the millj but she could not " clam ; " there was nothing for her to do ; the mill was at stand and had been all week . Mr . Holmes was asked , if that was the fact ? and he admitted it was—the geering was under repair . The girl repeated that she was forced away ; she could not " clam ; " and was willing to return if he paid her wages . My . Holmes would pay her wages whilst the mill was at stand , "if he might stop the money by instalments afterwards 1 " The magistrates said if he would have the girlj he must , pay her wages at all events , and after consideration , he chose to take her back and pay her .
ROCHDALE . Assaulting a Policeman . —On Saturday , Edward Hegan , was charged before Mr . Rpyds with . assaulting , and obstructing in hisduty Bentle y one of the Rochdale police beadles . It appeared the prisoner was fighting when the officer went and interfered , and got struckjandhit on thehand . He was fined in £ 5 . Petty Sessions .- —The propr ietors of the Manchester and Leeds Railway were summoned for . £ 1 , 14 a . 3 d . for poor ' s rates . ; Mr , Elliott who appeared on behalf of the company urged as a reason for not complying with the demand , that the * had
no interest arising from the land for which a claim was made , for it wa $ iii the handa of contractors . The overseer of Hopwood stated the land was purchased by the Proprietors of the Railway , and was subject to the ratea levied . The Bench thought the same ; but having no precedent ^ they allowed a fortnight for Mr . Elliott to get counsel in ; but they thought the claim just . James Holt , a poor man was summoned by the ^ overseers of Little Borough , for £ 1 . 2 s . being arrears for poor-rates . "When asked howlohghe had been running up that amount he said about eight years—the ^ Bench ^ ordered him to pay 23 . being the amountof the last fate .

THE LEASING ARTICLE IN LAST ¦ ¦ ¦'¦; . ¦ SATURDAY'S KER 4 LD . It is a great misfortune in Home men , that they pass years of their lives in committing errors , which no after care aod attention can remedy or obliterate . This is particularly the case with the gentleman who is now occupied in writing down in the Brighton Herald , as far as his little talenta will allow , the temperate and well-intentioned measures of the Working Men ' s Association . Everybody knows his origin ; everybody knows his style of writing ; everybodknows his
y actions . We speak it with indignation , mixeid w . ith pity , that wefoar this gentleman is laying up for his latter years much reprehension and disgrace . In the Brighton Herald of last Saturday was a leader , an intemperate leader , written by the gentleman alluded to , agai ' ns ' t Mr . Eeargus O'Connor and the Chartists . It would be in vain for that gentleman to deny the leader , for no one in the town would believe him . We must make a few extracts from it , and we fear that in the way we shall put them , they will fall with tremendous force on the feelings of this gentleman . We begin : —
"What does Mr . Feargns O'Connor mean by coming to Brighton as a travelling orator , and bothering us about hit politics ? If he mean well , why is he not in Ireland , labouring with Mr . O'Cqnnell , on behalf of his countrymen , the most oppressed people in the world , according to their own account . " Is this personal ? Is it just ? I > Jow suppose Mr . Feargus O'Connor , on reading this leader in the Brighton Herald , were to exclaim , " What does
this itinerant writer mean by bothering us about his politics ? Every one knows he has written a thousand articles in support ef the principles and the parties he now condemns . Why is he not at Lewes , labouring at his business ? " Would Mr . O'Connor be justified in making such observations ? Certainly . The observations of the gentleman merit no other reply . Besides , we contend that Mr . O'Connor has a far jester opinion of the real welfare of the Iri . » h people than hi . s countryman , Mr . O'Connell , and is pursuing wiser measures . We quote again .
" The ultra-Radicals , by chicanery and trick , scandalously achieved the triumph of a Tory at the last election , aud now threaten to procure , if possible , the return of two Tories at the next ; and that , on every occasion , these reckless and unprincipled politicians net in strict alliance and friendship witb the Tories , forwarding their views , and , as far as they have power , destroying every tittle of independence in the borough . " Mr . Feargus O'Connor will know , if he sees this article , and other persons will know who are not yet acquainted with the dark and sottish manoeuvres of the gentleman who wrote this article in the Herald , that Ae , the travelling tailor from Lewes—for such
must be our language since Mr , Feargus O'Connor is called by him by the opprobrious epithet of ( ravelling orator—was one of the very men who gave his vote in support of Sir Adolphus Dalrymple . We must tell Mr . Feargus O'Connor , and those whom it may concern , that this very man , who is now bothering the town with his opinion * , has written on all sides and for all parties . He has voted for anybody and anything ; written for anybody and anything : he has been Radical , Whig , or Tory , just as his interest led him or his employers dictated . He has never been constant to one principle , one purpose , or ob
one ject . He has varied like a weathercock , until those who wish him well shake their heads and regret that he is nothing better than a trader in politics ; those who would excuse his infirmities pronounce him to be a bewildered quack ; and those who detest him assert him to be either a rogue or a fool . "Whatever he may be , it is not for such a man , an adventurer in literature , and a decided changeling in political matters , to write against Mr , O'Connor and the Chartists , of whom there is not one , take him from where you will , that is not his superior in virtue and abilities . —Brighton Patriot .
