The Spy System.
THE SPY SYSTEM .

CASTLES , ; OLIVER , O'CONXELL , AND THE WHIGS . If I couple the recent correspondence between £ he Home Secretary and tie Magistrates of Hvde , upon the question of torch , light meetings , with the ferretti > g ont byO'Connell . of scraps from the speeches of the Radicals for the information of the jLTTO " EXBY- € rE ! fcEB-AX . j no donbt can remain as to ihe embarrassment which the GuTerament laboured under of creating a new place for the Liberator "being Temoved . Commissioners , pensioners , sur-Teyors , snd gaolers -they bare appointed in
abundance , and at length they have conferred upon their " man of . all wori , " the distinguished and lucrative situation of first Spy to the "Whi g Cabinet . This modern jFouc&i , I beg Fovche ' s pardon lor the indignity , bis set to work in right good earnest . Lord John Eu&ssll has declared that ¦ file meetings of die people should not be interfered trithi . O'Qoxkeio . sees distinction in . the declaration , and be , says they ate illegal r when instantly
the Home Secretary commences the first step in the . suppression of those meetihgsby an order that spies ihall auenjj and that ^ iM _ a ^ s d ^ ea .. shall-B ^ ateh : and " report the proceedings to . Government ., Now , aQ those who know anything of the spy system , are aware that the second step is , to take care that -file office shall not appear to be a sinecure ; and , therefore , if we were not sufficiently prepared and cautions for the traitors , they would soon make
work ; that is , if we afforded them the opportunity , and furnished them with materials . - Ours iashirberto been a strictl y defensive position , and with that advantage which an extensivel y- circulated organ affords , we have invariabl y guarded the interests of our brother Democrats with an airaons EvKckude . There is but a step between ihe prison and the scaffold . To accuse a poor man is
io condemn him , to accuse a rich man iste in-flalt lim . Can there be any doubt then that accusation
Trill follow , and speedily fo ll ow , the spy system ? No " . Meetings by torch light are not ill egal bnt the men irho " have power to punish gay that they are illegal , and they are prophets capable of fulfilling their own predictions . Therefore , in tie name of God , and tie good cause , I would anxiousl y , " earaestjy , and inploringiy beseech my ffiends Jo reflect calmly lipon the con > eqnence . of one single - outbreak , and , more especially , if it should occur after what is called a sufficient warning . A correspondence lias . been jnblished in the Manchester Guardian , between Lord Dbbbt , the Hyde magistrates , and "L ord John BtjsselL j in which the latter
2 Soble Lord declares those meetings to be illegal . The question with mels not , whether they are Ule ? gal , "but whether any judge of the kndcould induce » jurj of shop-keepers to say that they were illegal ? Shoald anything " whit-lf may transpire at one of ikose meenng 3 j fnrnish ihe Government with what may appear to them cause for resistance , we at once
change places , and would be considered as aggressors , instead of holding that defensive position which we now so nobl y occupy . Public opinion has been sufficiently tested , —the people have appointed forty-Bine delegates , in whom they have rested entire con-Sdence , and therefore I think that nothing should dc done at hazard , the effect of which might be to undo all that has been done . The time from the
pr esent to the meeting of the Convention is sufficiently short for the necessary arrangements as to opplLrs , &c ., and therefore , I thus throw myself between the peopleandrthatsMrewhiehiglaidfeTtbem . 1 carmen them , but I shall not desert them , nor yet shrink from die performance of a sacred , though mayhap , a dangerous duty . -I have been incited to attead a torch-light meeting on Saturday , at Bury , and another on Moaday , at "Wakefield . I should wish , if they do take place , to attend both ; tut health will not permit these continuous
attendances in the winter season , at night meetings ; and therefore , as "Wakefield is nearest , and as there is a husk of speakers there , I shall attend that , bnt it will be with a view-of-impressing upon my brethren , rtbe fact that , where danger is apprehended , those who profess to be leaden should oeeupy the first rask . I go to prevent the occurrence of any thing which might by possibility implicate my party ; and , as the office of Chairman is the one of greatest responsibility , for that I shall sue , not that I
approve of the meeting , bnt because I might hare more influence than my neighbours in discharging fte dude * . To the leaders and to the people , of both plac e * , I would « aj t&at discretion is flit better part of valour ; that one * tep capable of being taken advantage of by a spy in the dark , anight be the means of makibg iridows and orphans , whose only consolation would oe , the taunt that the sufferers were forewarned . It is needless-to point out the many advantage * which the night affords to malicious men . It la seedless
to say that any injnry done would be plaeed to the aceonnt , not of tfce j * al perpetrators , bnt of the people ; and I need hardly remind my friends of thereadiness with which the Government would pounce upon the innocent victims . With these Tiewa -I would beg , nay , I would implore and kese-cb of nry good friends to meet in thtrir association rooms , under the protectJon « f the Kttielaw which does mniin , and to reflect upon the horror
to those who should awake in the morning to the « ad recollection that their obstinacy had made widow . , and orphans . What good can you effect ? if any say to , and with it balance the great mischief which the enemy m » y make you the inno . cent instruments of aecompBshiBg ? If you persevere wUl go with you , but reflect upon the advice which I give ; when a struggle is to be made , even legally , it mart be simultaneous . The whole cause should sot be jeopardized by a partial display .
I tay again that die meetings are sot illegalout the fitting time to prove this assertion will be after the Convention shall have met , and when thg question of law may be materially changed by the numbers of those implicated in th « triaL Badicals ! bide your time : arm sot your enemies even with a

CANADA . Tn another portion , of onr paper will be found copious details of the latest intelligence which has been received from Canada . The intelligence is chiefly interesting , on account of the undeniable testimony which it bears , that the spirit of liberty yet lives . She is not dead in Canada , though a leaden weight upon her eyelids has compelled her for a time to assume the guise of sleep . We can
have no doubt that the sudden breaking up , or rather breaking down , of Lopo ) Durham ' s Dictatorshi p has hastened the movements of the Patriots . They naturally considered the excitement and dissension , caused' in the . enemy ' s camp by the ill-treatment of Loud Durham , and his angry manifesto in rejoinder , a fit opportunity to strike home and secure their rights , while the rogues were falling oat . May Heaven prosper all their righteous effort * !

THE DUBLIN MONITOR . Thanks be toGod ! At lengfh and at last we are strengthened , revi ved , and refreshed by the establishment of a truly independent paper in Dublin . Oh , how much -of evil , of misery , and of heartburning would have been spared to unhappy Ireland if the press of that country had been conducted by patriots instead of by base and trafficing prostitutes . Let every Englishman , who loves justice to Ireland ,
read her Teal woes in her new tharnpion . Let every Irishman , who 'las exiled himself from rank oppression , produced by passive obedience and non-resis tance the motto of Divine tyrants , and who wishes to see the Teal strength by which such oppression can be removed , Tead the Monitor . Let every Radical Association take in a number of this pigmypress destroyer .

THE RET . J . R . STEPHENS AND O'CONNELL . 11 United we « tana , divided we fall . " We select the following extract from one of Mr- O'CONNEU ' s speeches , as the ground work of our commentary upon the Rev . Mr . Stephekb ; — . "He declared that he had a hundred thousand men at his ' command ready to march to battle . " If ever dagger of assassin was aimed at man , we seeitinthe foregoing lines ; bat we deprive the weaponxrf its point by declaring its Htter falsehood ,
and denouncing it as a wilful lie , fabricated by O'CoNNBLL for the purpose of hunting bis victim * « ngly from the fold , in order that the whole weight of public anathema may be brought to bear indivir dually against those in whose united st rength that " enemy of mankind" recognises the failure of his crusade of the bank and the counter , against the industrious portions of society . Stephens has been cautiouriy watched , he has been severely commented upon , he has been interestedly judged , and yet do we defy the open foe or wily friend , to
point out from his speeches or his writings any such declaration as that ascribed to him by O'Connell . So far we give the lie direct to the fabricator : we . shall now weigh the valoe of the evidence of a conspirator and revolutionist when brought to bear against those ,. who , if mad enou gh to be seduced and betrayed as Baonell Harvst was by O'Coknelx , would be at least allowed to CAntion a jury , to receive with jealonsy and sn 8 pi-. tion , the evidence of a common informer . The agitation which has always immediately
preceded the gathering of the rent , invariably progresses by the attempted ruin of others , the mendicant having no merit of his own whereen to establish a feasible pretence to alms . Flippant in tongue , well stored with abuse , and abonnding in cunning , he has recently , more than ever , distinguished himself by the violence of his personal hostility . He watched with anxious eye the first chanee which the dissensions of the English Radicals afforded , and ae ha * not left unimproved the opportunity with which indiscretion has furnished him . The too timid
lovers of " peace , law , and order , " by their denunciation of Mr . Stephens , have given apretext to the man whom we lately drammed from the Radical camp , on which to come again and recrait from our ranks ; the effect of which will be to divide society into sections , following with zeal , rather than with prudence , the men who are designed for martyrdom . Three men have been now selected as victims for the distraction of a reality which has sprung out of the strong moral denunciation of an infernal state of things . The manner of receiving this attack will
separate these men in earnest from those who but agitated while agitation was safe and easy , and who are ready now to start from the accomplishment of their plans . Oasti . br has already replied in a letter which may fairly challenge comparison with any political document extant . Let it be read : comment would but weaken it . Mr . O'CONNOR , whose attention has been just drawn to the attack , will probably reply next week . With respect to Stephens , if there be ought which
displease * our readers or the people generally , in his speeches , we would say , look also at the much therein , which must gratify you ; and if , after deliberation , you denounce him , condemn him . and hand him over as a prey to those who thirst for his blood , make your oonnty perfect by allowing us to participate in that martyrdom which must ever follow the bold expression of sentiment , and the firm resolve that the people shall be free . Do this ; for if upon slight' ground you condemn our friend , we will not undertake th » t at all times oar
sentiments shall square with your opinions , however we may endeavour to merit your approval . For years Q'CoNwell las cheated and deluded the Irish people , and now , in tile plenitude of his « nd » city , ( for the address every word of it is his , ) he calls upon the English people , to do what P to Hndon Universal Suffrage , for the most practical extension of the Suffrage—to abandon Annual Parliamenti for Triennial Parliaments , to last out the whole period of three years—to stand to the Ballot , which they have long denounced as a
substantive measure- —to giv « np the payment of members , in order that" profit may be made of agitation , and to abandon , till the convenience of Parliament , the abolition of Property Qualification , which i » , at present , the greatest obstacle to the

introduction of their friends into Parliament ^ and which , as Mr . O'Connell states , and he know * it « W / , give 8 rise to much perjury . The Radicals of England will mark in the terms of this new Union , the cunning of the lawyer ! They are called upon not to decade directly upon the / principle , but to hazard the issue upon the denunciation of Stephens and O'Connor . " Now see the value of this hypocrite ' s word , and the amount of his consistency ! Who recommended ' the Charter ? O'CoNNBLL !¦ ¦ ; . " ¦ . Who pledgedhimself to every one of its principles ? O'CaNNELliJ ! introduction of their friendV into ParUamenti and
Who put his name to the pledge P O'Connell !!! Who promised to introduce a bill for their enactment into the House of Commone ? O'CONNELXHH Who now abandons them ? O'ConneliJ !!!! This portion of his apostacy he must settle with the Working Men ' s Association of London ; whilst we shall appeal to the Empire at large , and to every Radical Association , Working
Men ' s Association , and Political Union in the Empire . The question with them must be , whether by denouncing Stephens and O'Connor , they will lend themselves to a ruffian who dishonours human nature , for the purpose of continuing a state of things which he has been foremost in denouncing , till he brought agitation to the level of the rich man ' s pocket . Has he not bought the Irish people ever and over again with l ying professions ? and has he not as often soW them for gold ? Does he not threaten to marshal and lead an invading
army to stifle the demand for justice in this country ? Let the opinion , then , of the whole people be expressed . Let them meet throughout the empire , and declare their sense of 6 'Connell ' s baseness ? Let them pen no ambigaoua resolution from the partial interpretation of whien . he may claim even a partial triumph . A scheme is laid . It is a Government Whi g plot , and O'Connell is their dirty tool . He was before employed to crush the Trades ,
when bis pledges were given to Canada : he is now employed to paralyze the energies of the people in their demand for Universal Suffrage . Let him , then , be at once boldly and manfully denounced . Let the empire echo with the-tidings of his infamy . The traitor ! that has sold Ireland , and pawned England and Scotland tothe Whigs for the " mess of pottage " which they' will allow him to share among his honery crew . If extraneous , matter be introduced
into the resolutions , it will be sei , ied held of by those who have been reluctantly dragged into the vortex of practical agitation , and who but seek an opportunity to make it stop just-at that point which will best serve their interested purpose . Should the issue divide the Radical ranks , ( which God forbid , ) let it be remembered that we are the defendants . But no ; it cannot—it shall not sever us ; or , ifdegerted , we will raise up a new host to ourselves , from which there will be no traitors to discharge , as they will have rallied round the pure and unsullied standard of patriotism , and upon whose banners will be emblazoned Universal Suffrage and the full rights of man .

O'Connell And the Northern Union . — We have much pleasure in directing particular attention to the four spirited resolutions passed by the Committee of the Grre ^ ij ; Northern Union which will be found in our advertising columns . Northern Union . -There Was a goodty muster of the members of ^ the above association oa Monday : . evenine last , at the large room near St . James ' a Church , Yorkrstrtet , and we undeistand tha | a great nymber p f persons went away diaappointed of admission , in consequence o ; a mistake as te the time of comniencementto preyent which
, in future , a person has been appointed to have the room read y for the admission of the public at halfpast seven , the chair to be taken at wight o ' clock precisel yi Mr . Francis Phillips was called to the Chair , and opened the business of the meeting by requesting the persons present to pay attention ' - - to the geyeral speakers , and impressed upon the meeting the importance of the subject which they were met to advocate : he concluded t > y calling on George Wmte to address the meeting , who entered at length into the origin of governmentwherein he
, proceeded to shew that it must of necessity haye been a compact ; entered into by all the parties concerned for the mutual advantage and benefit of the whole ; and that , as thei present system was carritd on by force and fraud , to the injury of thfe indus ^ triou 8 classes , and the aggrandisement of the idle and worthlesB , e . very ¦ man ' s common sense pointed outy that the compact was dissolved , and society reduced to its ori g inal elements . That with such feelings > and convictions , the workiug classei" had chosen the National Convention , which was in eifect
a separationTrom their oppreBsors , and called upon the people to support with all their might the "People ' s Parliament , " - asi the last resource ^ and the only method which could be taktn to effect their deliverance j andi restore the working population to their ori ginal position in society , After remarking on the question of phyaical force , and denouncing those who seem to be horror stricken at the idea of the working men procuring arms for their own defence , he concluded by calling on all present to unite with their fellows in their endeavours to
obtain justice , Mr . David Black also delivered a most excellent and energetic addresa on the wrongs and gufferings of the working classes , and was loudly cheersd . An article from the Northern Liberator , on the subject of th « New Poor Law , was read to the meeting , wbich created a great sensation . Mr . Charles Connor addressed the-meeting-at some length , in the course of which he read an article from the , Operative , denouncing Daniel O'Cpnneil , ' , in which he said he heartiK concurred . The follbwiHg resolutions were unanimously agre d to : —1 . That the members of this association who
have undertaken the sale of medals be n quested to produce their accounts on Monday next . 2 . That George White be appointed treasurer to the Leeds National Tribute ; and that all persons now holding monies to be appropriated to that purpose , be requested to forward the same to him in a fortnight , that they : may be . transmitted , in due time , to the Central Wesc Riding treasurer , Mr . CUrki'oi ) , ot Bradford . At the clpse of the meeting it was announced—That on Monday evening next , a discussion would be held . Subject : ' , ' The right ot the peo ple to the possession of arms ; " to whjch the public are invited .
Doings of Mr . Alderman Musgrave . —un Thursday last a poor simple-looking working man , named Thomas Allcock , was brought up by a warrant before Mr . Alderman MuHgrave , to auiiwer the charge of leaving his emplpyment without sufficieut notice . It appeared that Allcock wtw & weekly servant for Tetjey and Co ., brewers , Huiwlet Lane , and that he had i 3 s . per week as his wages . On Tuesday morning last , haying heard of ¦ abetter situation , one at which he could get 24 s . a-week , he left his employ , and went to it , being obliged eiiher to go to it a . t . that time , or ran the chrtijee of losiug it . He was complained of before the ihatiistrates , and a warrant was taken out against him . After
the warrant had been served , upon him , he went back to Tefley ' sj and offered to return io his employment if they would not prosecute him ; hut his offer was refused . When he was brought up on Thursday , he admitted that he had left bis work , bu > he had done so because he had got a much better situation ; whereupon Mr . Alderman Mu ^ grave said that he bad rendered himself liable to be sent to Wakefield House of Correction for three MONTHS , and that Ae richly deserved to be sent for the whole time . He should , however , send him for two months , where he would be subject to hard labour !!! Tlie poor man stared like an idiot ; Tetley wsis evidentlj confounded at the sentence ; and even Mu .- ^ rave
himself blushed like a thief when first convicted of felony . The man wa » put in the dock ; Tetley went out of the . Court House , but in a few seconds came back again , and begged that the puuishment might be commuted . The poor man ' s wife canie ' iu- reitrx . to ask what was to become of her and her children while her husband wa ^ -in prison ; but she received no answerj and went away almost franfic . The worthy (?) Magistrate made some objection to a commutation of the punishment , and reminded Mr . Tetley that when he . applied for a wArrant , he had represented how much mischief might be done if all his men were to do the same thing . Eventually the time of imprisonment was reduced to one month .
Thus the poor fellow , for fndeavouring to obtain more of the comforts of life for himself and family , looses both his situations ^ serves a month at tli - tread-mill , and when he is again at liberty will , m all probability , be without any means of su ' hsi - teu <; e , and must be either left to starve or seek a uansh allowance . Alderman Musgrav « occa-K . nalu preaches . The next time he nvounts th-pulpit wV vrpuld recommend him to take for hiM text , ' G < m liness with CONTENTMENT , > great gain ; " h ' miI ' adduce this case as an apt illustratioti . [ Th- on-y relief which we can at presenr extend t » i ib » victim of the swadiing justice , is hereby to authnru'e tier , the wife of Allcock , to call at our office wi-. ku n ' the liberation of her husband , where nhe snail ieceive the full amount of his wages , 13 s . per « eik , Universai , Suffrage will put a kick * in his

PreviouiB to the dinner , a number of young men Were initiated into that respectable order , and a number more proposed . ; After the business of the lodge was closed the members partook of a plentiful repast provided for them , and after the cloth was drawn each individual endeavoured to enliven the evening with harmony , arid to shew towards each otherihat brotherly love which such societies are formed and
organised for . Each member having enjoyed himself i n a reasonable manner , they separated inorder : arid reasonable time , not forgetting the hospitable repast provided by Mr , and Mrs . B . ancl the thanks due to them . The Leeds Old" ^ Barid atte ^ e ^ tp give their best support and assistance to enliven the company , which was done in a manner creditable to that band . Ampng the members of the order we noticed that respected individual , namely , Mr . James 'Lambert , formerly serjeant in the 6 th Royal VYarwickshire .

On Tuesday morning last , a case o f some interest was heard before the magistrates , of which the following is the substance : —
Mr . Jas . Carman , an overlooker at Mr . Wilson ' s taniyard , in Hunslet-iane , appeared to qomplain against a policeman named Bullock ( the gentleman of No . 9 notoriety ) for having assaulted his wife , arid used the most insolent and provoking language , without provocation . He stated that on Monday night ... last , sj » he was going home , at about twenty niinute 8 or half-past njne o ' clock , he * happened to meet his wife in company with another lad y , a Mrs . Ledard , who was a friend of Mrs . Carman ' s , arid who had been visiting her that day . Mrs . Carman was then accompanying this lady part of the way home on returning from her visit . That on meeting
with her he stopped to make inquiry about the children ; and while they were in conversation , Bullock came up and told them to " move oa " and not obstruct the causeway . That Mrs . Carman replied to Bullock , that she thought it very hard if she oould not be allowed to stop a minute to speak to her hunband in the street when she met him . - That ' BuU lock replied , " "X our husband ! Why , you are any body ' s wife , " and pushed her . That at this , Mrs . Carman beeame very much excited , and asked him what he meant ? when Bullock threatened to take her to the Station House if she did not u move on . " That after some further conversation had transpired , ll ¦ ~*
WT * ; * va . K ' k *_~ - - - - m J Bullock walked away and left them ; and that he ( Mr . Carman ) not wishing to create any disturbance in ihe street , walked quietly after Bullock , arid civilly asked him his name , and looked at his number , telling him that he would not have his wife abused in any such way . That at this , Bullock took him by the collar , and threatened to take him to prison , dragging him at the same time a distance of several yards . " That he ( Mr . Carman ) then told Bullock who he was , and where , and for whom he worked ; and assured him that if he had anything against him—if ha would make his complaint
before the magistrates , he would answer any surriraons . That upon this , Bullock let him go , and he ^ proceeded . towards home . That in the mean time , Mrs . Carman and Mrs . Ledard -proceeded on Hunslet-lane , towards Leeds , when haying met with a young man who was lodging at Carrnari ' s , they told him what had happened a minute or two before . That while they were thus relating to him what bad happened Bullock came tip again , / and said , - ?« What ! you ' re here yet ; " and took hold of Mrs . Carman , and tore her gown arid bonnet , and pushed her ahout , in attempting to take her to the Station House .
Mrs . Ledard , a very respectable looking person , corroborated these , statements , and added that when Bullock was thus attempting to take Mrs . Carman into custody , she endeavoured to prevent them . Shtf aUostated , that being near to the Black Bull , Mrs . Carman called out to Mrs . Booth , the landlady , who came out and told Bullock that Mrs . Carman was the wife of a respectable man , arid that if he had anything against her , he wan to come to-morrow ; whereupon Bullock went away . Mrs . Booth was then called to testify whether Mrs . Carman was perfectly sober ; but after equivocating in tbe most discreditable manner for a considerable time , all that eould Vie got out of her was that * ' Mrs . Carman certainly was not tipsy . "
Bollock in his dcfon . ee said , that as he was going dpwn Hunslei-lane j about twenty minates past nine , on Monday evening , he met a man , who told him that there were two woirit-n on the causeway talking to two men , and that one woman was drunk ; and the' * c had had to step into the middle of the road , whv . e he had got over his shoe tops in mud . H « ( Bullock ) went up , and there were two men and two women talking on the flags . He told them not to stand there , and interrupt the causeway . 8 ne said , they we ' re- respectable persons , arid would stand there . He walked away , arid a man came up j and said to him ^ r ' You are No . 9 ; you are well
known in this nei ghbjafurhood . " He ( Bullock ) said he would take him upy atd toot hold of him / but he let him go , and he : went away . He ( Bullpck ) then ' ¦ ame hack , and there were these . women and a man Mtanding all three together . He f ^ y V " What ! >¦ . « tuare riot gone yet ;'' and he , was turning awayy when * he tttwat him ^ and . struck him . The other woman ( \ l-r » . Ledard ) took hold of her to keep her oft * him . He then got hold of her hand , and said he would r » ke her to prison ; but Mrs . Booth said she was a re ^ pecrable man ' u wife , and he let her go . $ e had no wiinesses to prove his statements . He declared VIth . Crman wart drunk .
A \ » unK man , named Whittlestone , a bricklayer , was thrn called by Bullock to speak to the character of Mrs . Carman . All he had to say was , that when ue was going home on Sunday night , he saw Mrs . Ca'iiiaii and another woman with her , and they were both drunk . After some consideration on the part of the magiatrattis , ; ' " Dr . Williamson gave their decwion as follows : —He SHid—This was a charge which involved . i » -f pi . the character of 'he officer , Bullock , ¦'
!«• disjeretion , and a proper , knowledge : ^ ¦"' , of h . « riutv . It had been said by the husband Hud ihe friend of Mr 9 i Carman , that he used c very offensive expression , which was -highly nli-ulHt « rd , to irritate and annoy ; and this'led . Mrs . iJarinan to the display of great irritation . Acoording to the admission of all partiegj Mrs . C . was much excited . Bullock had desired the parties to leave the place wk-ere they were then asserabledi According to the admission of Mr . C . they had been three or four minutes there when Bullock came
up . Ik was desirable to keep the foot-path as clear as possible ; bnt it was not the duty of a policeman interfere in every instance when he thought persons w ere Htopping in the . ; street . -, On ::. the other h ; r ; d , it appeared that Mr . Carman CaTneafter '• hi I luck and asked for his number , arid accused him , !¦•< nt having commi ted an assault , but of having
ti . sn ! an exceedingly improper expression which i ¦ n « . u rnily offended them both . No altercation took plate tit-tween Mr . Caririan and Bullock in / the si reet . Bullock seemed to have been excited aeei * urqg to his own account , and ( displayed ; more "in rif » t an was necessary in collaring ; Mr ; Carman ¦ i-cf ) hreatening to bring him to prison . He ( Dr . Williamson thought that was entirely unjustifiable on > he part of Bullock .:- There was no proof , ' except on the part of Mr * . CarmAn ' ti friend that blows were inflicted ; ' ¦' . indeed ,. ; there were no ! blowji , but Mr , < i Carman ' s clothes were ^ torn : ^ Bullock j ¦ in hia defence , xaid she waV irritated and drunk ; and the
eviderice given by Mtb . Booth went a great wray tp induce them ( the magistrates ) to ; think sbie ' waa under the influerice . of liqupr . ^ he w ^ y in whi ch Mrs ; Booth had given her testimony did not remove from their minds the feeling that Mrs . Carman was underihe ; influericeof : liquor , and if . that were the case the defence of Uullock , to a certain extent , was a good one . He saw a person in the street at rath * an unseasonable hour ( 20 minutes past nine pJclpck , ) ander the influerice of liqupr . He requested her to leave ; she refused to leave . Not knowing who she was , according to the usual treatment which an officer would adopt in

—^^^^^ THE ASHTON ADDRESS . The address of the Men of Ashton to the People of Birmingham , which will be found in our advertising columns , will be read with extreme pleasure by all friends to the good cause . While others throw a veil over the good , and harp upon what does not exactly square with their own notions , it is our delight to select those sentiments which do honour to our friends and strengthen our Union
We are to look upon the document under consideration , as intending to express the reasons why the men of Ashton have confidence in Mr . Stephens , and if in the face of this document Mr . EDMONDS refuses to apologize , we must suppose that a determination exists , upon bis part , to separate the men of Birmingham from those of the North . Let us have no more splitting of hairs—no more canvassing of words— "
He ( Stephens ) does not recommend an appeal to p hysical / orce , until every other legal and constitutional means has been tried and found ineffective . " Words are bnt wind Actions speak the mind ! Now , if Union be indeed the object , and if the committing to print of men ' s principles be the only
thing necessary , here is a golden opportunity to bury the past , and set to work like men for the accomplishment of our object . Mr . Edmonds should see the many enemies we have to contend with , and the recent attack upon our body , should but knit u » the more firmly together . We ask the good men of Birmingham to give the matter their earliest and most anxious consideration .

Supposed Murder of an Ine ' ant Child . - ^ On Monday ; inorning .

After the jury had been sworn , th * Coroner observed that they htfl been calied to investigate the cause of the death of an infant male child , which had on the previoua day been found buried in . a heap of ashes at Weedhouse , and after having . y iewedthe body , the further inquiry would be postponed until ¦ VTedneBd&y evening . The body had
undergone a post mortem examination ^ and it appeared that there were no marks of viplence upon the body : except one upon the ri ght cheek , which he understood would be ^ accounted for . iri ^ a satisfactory manner . For the purpose of procuring further evidence ^ it was absolutely necessary . '; tp adjourn the investigatbn . ' On viewing tfie bpdy , the right cheek presented a most horrifying spectacle ; havipg been devoured by yermin . The chijd appeared to be full grown , and ^^ ag fine an infant as could be seen . On Sunday evening , WimamE ^ n ^ a clotti d ^ ser , who resides at Woodhouse , a widower-j aged nearly fifty years , and Hannah Kitson , his daughter
, aged upwards of twenty , were apprehended on . suspicion of having committed the murder .

' the public . On her re-appearing among them , her reduced form , excited suspicion , and on being questioned by somej she stated that she had fallen down a flight of steps , and bad been confined to her bed in consequence oC
the injuries sustained ;; but to others she said she had been taking medicine for the tapeworms , and bad parted with a large quantity which had alteredher appearance ; a third story was , that she had been tepped for the dropsy which accounted for her diminished appearance . These contradictory ^ accouatg naturally confirmed : the ypTevionsr suspicion , arid infprmatipn was pren tothe police , ; -. W $ ki ^ apprehended her , when she denied having recently had a child .
