THE LEEDS MERCURY AND THE PEOPLE'S CHARTER . Our Mercurial neighbour has again laid the world coder oiftgatio » to h ' u ingenuity and taet .
In his last paper he continues his edifying comsientary on what he is pleased facetiously to term tie " Six-leggfcd Charter . " Having disposed { in iis way ) of one of these , the Universal Suffrage leg , in the previous number , he now proceeds to a consecutive re-new of the remaining , five . As we attended our neighbour injhjs Universal Suffrage speculations , we shall certaipfo not be so unpolite as to leave him at ihe end of the -first stage , but . shall endeavour to travel in "his company , profiting by his . wisdom , throughout the whole investigation . He . !* gins irith considering the principle of Annual Parliaments , which he pronounces neither " needful 3 iar desirable j" aad at which conclusion he arrives ~ b j the following chain of reasoning : —
" If the » ymleni oTRLpuiLatuixre Go-rernmpnt were ftrnnded - a lie principle thxt ihe Representatives are mere Delegates , Sent , tar the « aie of eonrrnienee , to execute the mandates of iheir eunstitne&ts on all public question * , —that those Repre-• estxtirn xn sot 'to'be i rusted any father than they can be en , tot are to be tethered like a new-caught bird " —then Annual Parliaments , however sTeat a zmuanee , fraud be ~ anttsary . But if , *» we hare always understood . Representative Government implies a large and honourable trust , ittmely , th » t of Legislation and control over the Executive , OMnTTHtled to men whom the People elect , from -arooii ^ their "WWthtti * eitiiend , because they knov their princi ples , characters , and talents , because they they can confide m them , and ¦ because they thi&k those Representatives better qualified than the atMs-of the People themselves for the great work « i CorernnteBt , — -then , it is neither needful nor desirable to leaew the choice year by year . '
If indeed " representative government" were trhat our friend of the Mercury here -describes it " t £ fce , thenit-would be " ne ther needful nor" desrahle " to renew the choice of representatives at all , excepting when the death of a representative might rause a-vacancy which must be filled up . With all Sue deference however , to our Contemporary ' s Judgment , -we snbmit that " repreBentative government" is not that which he has " alwaysnnderslood " as such . The obedience of everv man to the several
laws of this realm is required upon the prin-¦ c jple , that it is reasonable that he should obey the laws to the enaction of vriAch he has , by his representative , given his assent . This is the -view ^• f- " representative government" taien by all our 'Constitutional "Writers , and by all our Courts of I »* w—and surely nothing can be more clear than 'ftutf this -new of u representative government " ^ necessarily supposes the " representatives" to express ike opinions , and execute the wishes of thope whom tfiey represent . We have yet to learn with what
yrepnery a man who holds strong and decided epinions upon matters of legislation , the exactcon"TErse , itmayie , of the opinions of his constituents , « an be said to " represent" these constituents , when id legislating , hfracts upon his own opinions , without reference to , or in defiance of , the opinions and " wishes of his constituents . "Will the Mercury contend that soch a man is legitimately a " . repretentative f" "We presume not ; Dut , if not , away , at once , goes the Mercury ' s distinction between a " representative" and a "delegate . " It is unnecessary for -us to seek arguments whereby to prove
ttaMi it is self-evident and proves itself to every aian ' s mind , TJ , however we did need an argument for that purpose , -we need only look to the next paragraph in our neighbour s article . It seldom tappens that writers of that school of politics to which cur neighbour ^ ves in his adhesion , ' deliver themselves of two consecntive paragraphs , with--out bo ordering it , that the one shall furnish -an admirable confutation of the other . So , in accordance with this excellently aceomodating rale , We need only -cite the very next paragraph of our neighbour ' s ar tiele , as a reply to the one we have already cited .
^ We hardl y need say that we admit , and would ever con--tssid for , the invaluable principle of Rerptm-tib Hiiu , on account f the infirmity of human nature . Member * of Parliament « e servanis of the public , returned to protect the interest * of the public ; and therefore t ) ie -public oughi to have frequent -ejpoitnurties of dismissing or re-appointinBihem , according « s they hare been fcithful or otherwwe . " ^^ - Now , if " Representatives" are chosen by the -people , not "for the sake of convenience , " that thej may do that for the people which it is inconvenient ier the people to do en masse—if they are chosen "because the people " confide in them" so folly as to ¦" think them better qualified for the great work of
Government than theaselwes , " and therefore give it entirely into their hands , why should-they be " responsible ? " Tor whaiare they to be " responsible , " if they are not bound by the opinions of their constituents , but are to exercise their own judgment , independentl y of all such -consideration ? If they * renot " ient to execute the mandates of the pub-Be , " how are they " tenant * of the public" ? If they are -chosen by ihe people because they are a betUr quali f ied for . * he great work of the Government than the people themselves , " why should the people have "frequent -opportunities of dismissing r reappointing them" ? Why should the people , who Are leu qualified , be allowed to dismiss-those
¦ Who an "letter justified" to govern than them-• dTM ? Clearly then the ifmrar /^ ideaof" repres « n-U&re Grorernment" excludes all notion of " responsibility j " - and u clearly the " representatiTes" thus Jescribedby ( hsMercury arejio " representativeg " * t tSL Irf ^ datora they may be , but " repfesenta-¦ tiTw" tbej certanly are not ; nor can the slightest leason be . addoced why . a . Parliament , ejected upon uck principles , should ever be dissolved at all . ¦ Thus , then , doeV" our friend , with his usua ^ gooi nature , idp the most defective understanding to
peroav * the . absurdity of his owb «> D-web reason-JD 81 * P * ^ ^ e ^ ame arguments , we have seen , « ren in $ x Mercur y , m& . i > al «» ut tie m « t mserably lame .

this head the Mercury b most virtuously indignant at the waste of public money proposed to be thus made in the payment of public " KrTants . " He calculates the expences attendant upon this " Pay . ment of Members" a at a million pounds sterling a-yeat j ' and exclaims thereon "it is clear , therefore , that the tJniversalists will have to pay dear for their whistle . " The expence of 300 members , even at the amount set down for them in the " People ' s Charter , " £ 500 each , falls something short of a million pounds—not to say that we apprehend a Parliament , elected by UnWersal Suffrage , would ..,, .. MWBiM ^ BBBiWiWBiBBBWW ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ W ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
estimate the value of public money upon a scale very different from that of the Parliament which has recently voted £ 100 , 000 a-year , to be paid annually by the public to one who never did the public a » y " service" at all , and would probably rate the salaries of members at something less than £ 500 a-year . We can scarce repress a smile at the big note » f admiration with which the Mercury attests his zeal for public economy in contemplating the projected item of £ 150 , 000 yearly for the payment of the most valuable " servants of the public , "
while he coolly passes by without note or comment the £ 100 , 000 a-year now paid to one individual who never " served the public" at all , and the many hundreds of thousands continually lavished upon a host of other individuals from whom the poblic has either had no " service" at all , or such " services" as would be most fitly repaid by public indignation and contempt . True , in this estimate of a million yearly the Mercury includes all the salaries which must be paid to the several Returning Officers , and officials
of every other description , necessary for carrying on the machinery of election ; -while , with" a honesty essentially Whiggish , he not only overrates the probable amount of these expences , but artfully speaks of them as if they must necessarily be defrayed in addition to the enormous burden of extravagant expenditure -which is laid upon the people now . He forgets to tell us how much is now paid to Returning Officers , Revising Barristers , Electioneering Agents , Canvassers and all the other myrmidons of corruption attendant upon the present system of
representation . He would have us to suppose , that under Universal Suffrage the people would continue to pay all these , when their " services" were no longer necessary , besides paying their own " public servants . " Let not the Mercury thus deceive himself—the people know better . The people of England are a just , honest , and generous people . They have no desire that any man should " serve" them for nought They are willing to remunerate their " servants ; " but they have a great objection longer to feed the swarms of locusts
who have so long preyed upon them " serving" nobody but themselves . The factions may rest surely in the comfortable anticipation , that whenever the public shall havejjai'rf " servants" " sent to execute their mandates , " and " trusted no further than they can be seen , " the public money will be bo longer obtained otherwise than for " services" performed . O'Conkblx ' s maxim of " no penny , no pater nester , " will he reversed , and rigidly acted on ; and then the £ 150 , 000 a-year paid to the " representatives" for doing that work which it is inconvenient for the
people to do themselves , will be found a comparatively small and very profitable item of expenditure . He next comes to the article of ' Equal Electoral Districts , " and uponthis he remarks in the following Just and gentlemanly terms . 11 "We object to this piece of vulgar quackery , mainly because it would exceedingly depress tbe influence of England . » nd
proportionably augment that ot Ireland , in the Legislature . Instead of England haTing , a * now , 500 Member * to Ireland ' s 105 , it wonlJ give England only 175 Members to Ireland ' * 100 * * * # Ifthe operatives at Peep Green had understood that this enormous increase of Irish influence in the Parliament was included in " the People ' s Charter . " which thev adopted , they would have made yEARGOS repent of his impudence !"
So the giving of equal representative privileges to the whole people is , forsooth , * " piece of vulgar quackery" ! Now this word quackery is a very convenient and expressive term . It is derived , as every one knows , from the practice of those empirical pretenders to medicine , who , without skill or education , pretend to a science of which they
know nothing ; and hence it is popularly applied to anything which assumes a deceptions guise , appearing to be that which in reality it is not . Let us now see whether this division of the whole country into equal electoral districts , projected by the People ' * Charter , or the present" ReformBill system" is most worthy of being called "quackery ! " The Reform Bill affects to give the franchise to householders ol
£ 10 and upwards . This is the popular idea of the Reform Bill franchise . This idea the Mercury carefully inculcates in its article on Universal Suffrage , which we noticed last week ; but what is the fact ? my , the fact is , that though a £ 10 house in Knaresbro' will give a man a vote , a £ 10 house in Barnsley , which is a larger town , supported by the same staple trade , and having , to a considerable extent , therefore , the same interests , will net give a man a vote . The Eefonn Bill system gives two Members to Bradford , while it gives only two to the whole rural population of the "West Riding . Is this the "form" of representation without "
thesubstance" or not ? Is it not the rankest " quackery " to call thi 8 lobnded patchwork a " representation " of the "West Riding population ? And yet it is not to this evidently deceptions system , but to the effort at removing the anomaly , and giving to the representative system a real and not a fictitious character , that the Leedt Mercury applies the term '' quackery ''! But why does the Mercury object to this " quackery " of equal representation ? Because it would give to Ireland * greater share of representative power than she now possesses . And if the population of
Ireland is to be governed by the same laws as that of England , why should it not be represented in the Bame manner and to a similar extent f If tie Irish population be poor and miserable , what has made them so ? Simply the having no controul over the laws by wtoeh they aw governed , and by the operation of which , a country possessing every natural advantage thatcouM be desired , has been , immersed for many yeanr -in an abyss of wretchedness , unparalleled in the world ' s history . And vet , with" Justice to Ireland" upon
his . tongue , this " varlet" tells n » unWushingly that he objects to the principle of electoral equality " wam / y" because it would in civase the onlymearm whereby " Justice to Ireland" can ev « r be obtained ! To the Ballot ; he is pleased to declare himself a friend . At this we can feel no surprise . No true "Whi g was ever yet found who was not friendly to villany in any , butmost so inits most extensive , form . And certainly no greater lillany could be perpetrated ,
than to invest the present electoral body with the Ballot . The Mercury does quite as well to say little about the Ballot for the ten ponnders—the people are too wide awake—wehave greatly miscalculated their spirit and good sense if we ever live : « ee them suffer this consummation of Whig trickery to be effected . On the remaining " l ^ c" "No Property Qualification for Members / Ta ihe Mercury is pleased to bestow his " -deliberate" and " entire" approval . He
consoles himself for the misfortune of having nothing in these two " legs ?' - to find -fault with , . by thinking " that he has shown the other four to be not only unreasonable , but even absurd . " One thing he has certainly Bhown most admirably . He has shown how difficult it is for the most-practised , sophist to make any successful attack on principles that are based on truth and upheia Dy justice ; and , if his readers be not-eVen more bund and stupid than

himself , he has done much in these two articles to hasten the quickly approaching time when the principles embodied in the " Peopled Charter " shall become the acknowledged principles of legislation in this country ; and when , through their operation , " Justice" to Ireland—' Justice " to England" Justice" to Scotland—" Justice" to our Colonies —straightforward and even-handed " Justice" shall be done to all . ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

CANADA . —LORD DURHAM AND THE WHIGS . It is hardly possible to conceive of any situation more pitiably despicable than that in which the Whig Cabinet is now placed by the resignation of Lord Durham . They finish a long course of oppression and tyranny by an act of open robbery and pillage upon the Canadian people ; and , when the spirit of the people is roused to renst , as constitut ionally they were bound to do , the exercise of lawless despotism , they consummate their
wickedness by adding to the crime of robbery those of murder and arson upon a magnificent scale—killing the people , and burning their towns , villages , and churches , as relentlessly , and in as cool blood , as ever these acts of horror were perpetrated by the most uncivilized of Indian Bavages . When they have thus rendered the people mad and desperate , they seek to conciliate and restore peace and happiness among them by sending over Lord Durham , armed with legislative powers of the most perfectly despotic character . Having themselves created a necessity
for extraordinary powers of legislation to allay the tumult and confusion of iih £ jr _ own making , they confide those powers to Lord Durham , and , as he might expect , desert him in his first application of them , according to his honest judgment . No man was ever more basely treated by his friends than Lord Durham has been . 'Tis to no purpose that the cringing , crawling creatures seek to affix the blame upon Lord Brougham and the Tories—the act of treachery to Durham was their own . He was , as he himself expresses it , " put
downsacrificed b y his friends—by those whose duty it was to stand forth in his defence . ' - " Had the Government possessed but a small portion of even that sort of honour which is said to exist among thieves , they would , at least , having placed Lord Durham in a position where they required him to act illegally , have sustained him in the doing of their own work . Had they possessed even this sort of honourable feeling , instead of having Lord Durham ' s resignation now , we should have had Lord Melbourne ' s
resignation in August . This might have terminated Lord Durham ' s mission , but it would have saved at least this one base and conspicuous act of treachery which , like a brilliant of unusual size , sparkles in the unenviable diadem of Whiggery . It would also have retained to them the support of Lord Durham andhi 3 immediate friends , whom they have now converted into enemies . How they will manage to abide the presence of their victim on his return , remains to be proved . Amid the mass of guesses
and conjectures which this event has given rise to , some have thought that , seeing their fate to be now inevitable , they would exhibit the better part of valour and walk while yet they are able ; but we know them too well to give them credit even for tbe breeding of a well-trained dog—they will assuredly wait to be kicked . Not oneinch will they budge so long as it is possible , no matter under what circumstances of degradation , to keep a claw in the candlebox .
For our parts , we rejoice at this occurrence . We hail it as a good omen both for Canada and England . We cannot doubt that the patriots of Canada will take advantage of the stun thus given to despotisui , to make another , and we hope successful , effort for the establishment of their liberties—while in England it can scarcel y fail to operate some change in the disposition of things and parties , which must be for the better—as the people' are qow informed and organized in such a manner as to be quite able to turn any and every such circumstance
into its right course of action . We never thought any good likely to come of the Dictatorship of Lord Durham , and are therefore not sorry at its termination . We never believed the accounts which reached us of his popularity , and of the general satisfaction at his proceedings . It is out of the nature of things for a despot to be popular- ^ -it is contrary to reason to suppose , that in a country whose inhabitants had braved the horrors of civil war in defence of their patriotic National Assembl y , the abolition of that Assembly could tend much to the establishment of Lord Durham ' s popularity ,
and we need scarcely stronger evidence of the truth of our conceptions on this head than the fact that a jury could not be found who would convict the parties tried for the murder of Lieutenant Chartrand . Here may be possibly the secret ol Lord Durham ' s clemency , so much lauded . Mighty praise has been lavished on Lord Durham for not hasging all the patriots he could lay his hands on . We do not aecord him any extraordinary merit on that aeeoumt—for this plain reason—the alleged crime of insurrection wag no crime at all , but a justifiable use of force in their
own defence . This may appear very plainly , by referring to the origin of the conflict . It is not even necessary to consider whether the charges of oppression brought by the Canadian people against the Government were correct or Hot . It is enough that they had or supposed they had grievances to complain of . They enumerated their grievances , and endeavoured in a peaceable and constitutional way to obtain redress ; the means they adopted to effect thi « object being the discussion of their real or supposed grievances and petitioning for redress . Their petitions were disregarded , and when they had lost all hopes of obtainiDg redress by this means , the Colouial Parliament refused
to vote any more money to carry on the Government , or to use the common political phrase , * ' stdppejd the supplies . " Thwthey had a clear constitHtionai right to do . The Governor repeatedly dissolved the Parliament , and every fresh Parliament elected by the people punaMlUieisame line of condaet , this plainly showed the sense and feeling of tbe people , and there was then no constitutional mode left of dealing with the people except complying ' with their demands . The Government might constitutionally have refused their demands , and continued dissolving the domestic Legislature , but " it L ^ impossibje . fe ^ frf on the businessi-of - ^ l « B » aerrtWit ^ OTt ^ n ey , and
institutionally they could not touch a penny of the money , though in the Exchequer , till it was voted by the Parliament ; however , they took the money which had been collected in taxes without having been voted , arid expended it , and this wa » the great error of our senriblfr Whig Government . It wtw , in fact , taking the people ' s money without their consent ; either expressed by themselves or their representativ ? s . This , according to all idea we hava of morality—of honesty-is theft . If one party robs or attempts to rob another , the party who is robbed or attempted to be robbed may legally defend themselves ; and if the robbers are killed in the conflict
it is no murder-it is justifiable homicide . The Colonista were robbed by the Government taking their money and spending it without their own consent ; and they were clearly justified by the law in attacking the robbers , or in defending themselves . They did attack the robbers ; they did defend themselves ; but as they were lawfully and constitu-
Untitled Article
tionally justified in : so doing , thej Were ^ innocent persons , and therefore could have no crime to answer for , and couldvdeserye neither hanging , banishing nor any other punishment . If one partite allowed with imparity to taie any of the property of another without hisi consent , society is at itn end ^ and weceme bacit to a state of nature , in which the will of therstrongest -Ath the supremelaw . Instead , therefore , of hanging tir banishing any of the people who had thus endeavouredlegall y aud constitutionally to defend their own , the part of a true legislator
Bhouiahavel ) een to assemble the Colonial Parliament ^ and through them ascertain the wishes of the people ^ with a view tor the making , so far as circumstances would permit , of some reparation for the injuries inflicted on them by former governors , by which they had been forced into revolt , This would have been more likely to givepeice to Canada than the impotent " ordinances' ? of Lord Durham passing sentence on men who were not in custody to be tried , and imposing th » contingent penalty of death on parties who were not only guilty of no crime , but who were deserving of the highest praise for vindN
catmg the rights of the constitution . 'Tis very clear from the conduct of the Jury on the trial of the parties charged with the death of Chartrandv that this is the view of the matter taken by the Canadians themselves ; and consequentl y that no juries would have been found to lend themselves to the execution of tyrannical vengeance on the Patriots , the sparing of whom has been made matter of commendation in Lobt * Durham . As things now are , it is impossible for any Government to govern Canada otherwise than by the co-operation of the whole peopleorby thesword—hutwe miscalculate the British
people if they permit the load of taxation under which they now groan to "be made still heavier by a quarterly exhibition of the amount added thereto for Canadian coercion by military force .

This i » the twenty-seeond lodge of the above named order opened ib the Leeds district , within a few months , and the increase of lodges , iu other districts of the order , has beeri equally rapid of late as in this , which shews the order , in geseral , to be in a healthy , thriving , and prosperous condition .
Leeds United Order of Odd Fellows . — On Tuesday last , according to previous arrange ^ ment , the officers of Phoenix Lodge , No ^ 1 , assem ^ - bled at the Star and Garter Inn , QaULane , Leeds , for the purpose of opening a new Lodge . After 63 intelligent young men had gone through ' the necessary and interesting forms of initiation , ( 40 others being reserved for next Lodge night , ) the Lodge was opened in due ferm , under the appropriate tide of
" The Youthful Pilot . " The evening sweetly passed over in cheerful concord and delightful harmony . — On the following day the newly-constituted brotherhood dined toge-her ; when a most sumptuous dinner was provided and served up , in a style that reflected the highest credit upon the worthy host and hostess , Mr . and Mrs . Glew . After the eloth was drawn ^ toasts , sentixents , songs , and recitations was the order of the evening j and at a proper hour , the company broke up , gratified to a man with the
enterta ' nments of the evening , and with the principles of the order of which they now form a branch . Often has it been our pleasant duty , after recording the opening of new Lodges , to say that they were likely to do well ; but it has sejdom fallen to our lot to witness the opening of a Lodge that bids so fair and promises so much as " The Youthful Pilot . " Steaung a Watch . —On Tuesday , William Lister was brought up at the Court House , charged with having , on the evening previous , stolen a watch at the Horse and Jockey , Hunslet-1 ane , the property of Henry John Clay . It appeared that the prosecutor had been drinking with the prisoner and other company at that house ; the former commenced
a quarrel with oue of the company , and a fight ensued . When the prosecutor Was putting his clothes on , the prisoner asked him the . time of the night , when the latter got the Watch into his possession and absconded . The prosecutor shortly afterwards missed his watch , and inquired of the company , when he was informed that the prisoner was observed to take it . He then gave information to Sterling , a watchman , who apprehended the prisoner , and found the wateh in his possession , which has since been fully identitied . The prisoner , in defence , stated that he intended to have retu r ned the watch on the following day . The magistrates , knowing the prisoner to be a suspicious character , committed him for trial to Wakefield House of Correction . '

S . requested to have a portion of it , » but the defendant insisted upon being paid for the whole .
The complainant then attempted to leave the shop , but the butcher and his wife pushed ber to the further end thereof , and the former , it was proved , struck her several timea . She sent for her husban d , who came , and at last she got liberated , after being in confinement for twenty minutes . The magistrates observed that the defendant had acted very illegally ; though there might be some extenuating , circumstances , by the meat being cut , and in some measure rendered unsaleable . The butcher was-fined 7 s . for the assault , and 7 s . expenses . The amount was paid , and the defendants left the Court .
A Prig . —On Monday , John Thomas , a young man , was brought up at the Court House , charged with having , on Saturday evening , in Vicar ' s Croft , attempted to pick a woman ' s pocket , but she did not appear to give evidence . A policeman witnessed the transaction , and apprehended the prisoner with his hand inside the woman s gown when he fell down upon his knees and begged for hisijiiberty , promising to do so no more .
