TO THE INHABITANTS OF MACCLESFIELD , BOLUNGTON , AND THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBOURHOOD . Friexds , —The time is not far distant when you will be called upon , as a portion of the people of Great Britain , to dt-cide whether yon will be spellbound by tbe infernal fetters of a tyrannical faction , who devour the produce of your labour , er whether you will take yoHT affair * into your own band * , and secure to yourselves wbat tbe Eternal Governor of the universe intended for your especial use and comfort . It behoves you in the meantime , therefore , to look about yon , and be aware of yonr enemies ; one of your best friends has been seized by the mercilesx grasp of your oppressor * , and very f iad indeed would tber be could they behold him in
his last expiring struggle on the scaffold . Why do they wish to glut their vengeance on innocent blood ? It i * because be hax oointed to the spirit of pvriecution arising oat of written creeds—because he hxi « said that religion ought not to be the stalking-horse of ambiiion , nor turned into a trade by hired bypo : rite«—because he has said it is high time to search out the misery of tbe land , and to heal it at it « source—bec&nse he has said that the appointed pastors of the people ought to be their comforters in affliction , th ^ ir *• city ol refuge" when oppressed by cruel governors ; in a word , because he i . « a true Christian , and glories in promulgating Christianity in the true spirit of nk Lord and Master , Jecos Christ . Shall suck a man as this be ? acriticed to tbe minioas of corruption—to the bloody
voracity of a heii-begotten crew of conspirators agaia * t all that is great , good , virtuous , or praiseworthy ? If your answer is no he shall not , we must ask for something more than A . jnere declaration , of attachment : we mu& aik foryoorpence ; snd if we then fail in securing the liberty of oar country , we nimst raise the cry of slave * when determined lo regain their freedoin—aiuc armes—and proceed immcdiatelj to storming the castle of corruption . The prop * are rotten—the cement is decayed—the foundation is in a ruined state—the whole system is tottering , and it only Temains for us to give one _ unanimous pu * h at the whole fabric to hurl it into the deep , dark abyss of oblivion . And now let us remind yon that yon must do all the work yourselves ; the middle classes will not assist yon in the least ;
as a proof of which we will just state the following cases , which we hope yon will take into your serious consideration * , aud act as common sense and prudence shall dictate ; for , remember , you ought not to snpDort them who are endeavouring , by every means in their power , to crash the last remnant of British liberty : —On Sunday last , when the collectors appointed by the Defence Fond Committee were in Bollington , where they met with tolerable ftuccew , they called at a pub lie-house not a hundred miles from the Spinners Arms , kept by John Leigh , jun . The collectors asked the landlord for a donation . *• No , " said he , " if Stephen * was this moment ha&gingnpon the mellows , and one halfpenny would bring him down , I would not deliver him . " We
shall make no comment , but leave tbe monster to be dealt with as the people of Bollingtoa may think proper , or rather not to be dealt with at alL ¦> ~ The other e&ae i * that of a Mr . ft —> b < -ne , UqtfoT merchant , asd retailer of p 6 uon . Wh « d tne collectors a * kedl him for his donation he was outrageously insolent , and amongst other things said , " if Stephens come * to this town destitute and iq poverty , and calls at my houe for relief , I mar be induced to relieve him , but I will never subscribe to nhield a gcilry persan from punishment . " We « hnll leave this likewise without remark , as most people know how to deal with their enemies , or rather , aa we said before , know it it better iiot to deal with them at all .

Gestlbmen , —The death of Si * John Buslo ^ has caused & vacancy in the reoreRenUtion of your County , and you will shortly be called upon to exercise yoar respective ri ghto-the elector * to vote , and tbe noB-electors to use their influence , in the choice of a representative . How far my political principles may square with youre , I know nat ; however , if solicited , I shall offer myself for your Suffrages , when I ah ; 11 fearlessl y meet my opponents , and endeavour to prove my superior claim to your support . .
I am induced to embrace the present opportunity of testiDg the electors' opinions upon the principles of Democracy , in order that that portion of tbe community with which I am associated may fully understand their portion . I am perfectly aware that tbe old cry of " don ' t divide Reformers " will be raised ; but , Gentlemen , I shall not be scared by tbix deceitful appeal ; as none are Reformers , cave those who at once and unequivocally declare for the five great priaciples of Reform , upon which the people have set their heart * , and tbe justice of whi ( h none cau deny by tenable arguments .
I hold that upon every stmggle it is the duty of the Radicals to stand alone ; and , therefore , I shall court neither Whi g nor Tory support . 1 shall offer myself upon the same princi ple .- * which , upon two former occasion * , secured for me the confidence of the largest constituency in my native country ; and shall , if honoured with your confidence , act upon precisely the same princi ples which I have professed both in and out © f Parliament for the last seven years .
As I do not intend to make mooey of you , I ehall net upend any upon you ; and , therefore , those who wish to have my unpurchaseable services must purchase a ri ght to command them . If returned to the House of Commons , I shall be attentive to my duties and to your interests . I shall sit with the Speaker , and rise with the House . I shall , as a Member of the Gi-uwral Convention .
gather public opinion during the day , and shall give expression to it through tbe night . I would not vacate my scat , as a Delegate to the Convention , to ensure the representation of your County ; but I truHt that my constitution will enable me to discharge the dutie * incidental to both ' offices . From the poor I shall learn , and to the rich I shall impart that learning .
I shall appear before you at the clo ^ e of each Session of Parliament , and , having accounted for my stewardshi p , shall tender my resignation in the several towns within your county , and , if accepted in any , I * h all resi gn for all , a . « I hold that an approval of the representative s-iould be unanimous , or at least no far funeral , as t 0 speat a decided opinion .
Upon the several questions of finance , I shall invariabl y vote for all reductions in the national expenditure ; for the removal of all placemen and pensioners save those whose services merit national consideration . I shall vote for the abolition of all sinecures , and for such a code of laws as all can understand , and as all can obey with pleasure , rather than from coercion .
With respect , to the financial Church question ? , which have been so unfortunatel y mixed up with State consideration * , I shall vote for the immediate exclusion of tbe Bisuops from the House of Lords , from the conviction that those Prelates cannot serve God and Mammon ; and that , in tb * rir devotion to the latter , they have lost si ght of all thought of the former . I shall vote for tbe completeentire
, and unqualified abolition of tithes in Ireland , from a conviction , that they are uiijunt in principle and destructive of the object which they are supposed to accomplish , namel y , the furtherance of reli gion . I shall vote against them becau « e they lead t « the shedding of hua » au blood , and there is no sure foundation set in blood . As to your reli gious feelings , I ihlll in nowise interfere with their fall eTPiY > i «« —__ . . „ ., ^ ,,, ; - . . B . cncic wjiu meir ion exercue
while I shall it all times oppose any state grant for their propagation , being convinced that salvation cannot be measured by the acre , the rood , or the perch . In order that I may remain perfectly unshackled , I shall not accept of any place , pension , or emolument , from , or under any government , but ehall fearlessly do my duty , so as to ensure your esteem .
My knowledge of Agriculture , will afford me an opportunity of representing that interest which ba « been sadly and dangerously overlooked , the eflfcet of which has been to merge the interest of the fanner , the labourer , and the nation at large into that of the landlord . I am one of those who from experience has learned that consideration of foreign interests has been forced upon us by neglect of our domestic resources j
and I believe that overgrown taxation for the support of idlers , * nd the unrestricted gambling speculations upon labour , applied to an undefined and unstable system of production , withomt regard to demand , is the great evil under which manual labourers are suffering ; and therefore I shall oppose any alteration in the present Corn Laws until I am satixfied that the labourers themselves , and not the landlord ? , or the money lords , shall have the exclusive advantage of the change .
I am firmly convinced , that bo change under the present system , whatever may be the prpfesrions of the workers of that change , can be for the benefit of the j > eople ; and therefore I shall SrBteBdeavour to change the system , and afterwards to apply the new one in makingsuch alterations aa will place all upon an equality ^ and ensure for every man in this country a fair day ' n wage for a moderate day ' s work ; and , in the event of not being able to procure that work , Bach a provision as a human being should not blush to accept , or lose his liberty and his connexions with famil y , friends , and the world , by accenting .
Gentlemen , in conclusion , I beg to say that I am for the Altar , for the Throne , and for the Cottage ; that I wish to see the Alter the footstool of God , instead of the couch of Mammon ; that I wish to « ee the Throne based upon the hearts , and supported , if necessary , by the right arms of the people , instead of by the whim , the prejudice , and the caprice of a prostitute and profligate Aristocracy ; and that I wish to see the Cottage the castle of the freeman , instead of the den of the slave . I have the Honour to be , Your obedient rervant , FEARGTJS O'CONNOR . Leeds , April 12 tb , 1839 .

been a good lew beasts , of middling and ordinary quality , left unsold .

Liverpool Corx Market , Monday , April 16 . —The improvement which had taken place in the Wheat Market at the issuing of our last week ' s report , was followed on Tuesday by a further advance in prices , the inferior qualities of Wheat realizing 9 d . to In ,, and the finer descri ptions 6 d . per bushel above the quotations of that day se ' naight ; this increase of value , however , rather checked the vend and , with a subsequent supply of about 18 , 000 qr »! from abroad , in time for entry before the rise of duty to 6 .- » . 8 d . per quarter we have had less business
passing , with a . di * position on the part of holders of the general runs of Foreign to yield a little in their demands .

UNITED STATES . B 0 UJJDABY CUESriOS . ( From ike Prirate Correrpaniuux ef the Munihig Herald . ) General Scott , of the United State * army , a gallant and discreet officer , has keen forwrae davsa ; Augusta , the capital of Maine , and has exercii ^ i a . very pacific inflaence on tke counsels of the State Government . " : By ths Eastern mail of this morning we learn that there had been a oommnnication brtween General Scott and the Lieutenant-Governor of New Brunswick , and that a letter from Sir John giving strong assurances of tax amicable adjustment of all di&culdes , reached August * for toe general on tie 15 th instant .
March 20 . The Oiyhz u * has been detained by adverse wind . * , and 1 am thus enabled to append a word or two to mv letter of yesterday . Ve have a continuation of pacific assurances from the North-Eait . Sir John Harvey hag written a letter to General Scott , with which that gentleman is eminently gratified . The general entertains an elevated opinion of Sit J ohn ax a gentleman and soldier ; aad the spirit , liberality , and good sense with which he has managed tin * affair , make him appear to very great advantage . It is a p ity that Scott and Harvey could not be joint-commissioners for tbe two countries , to arraxge the question . Thev could do it in ten minutes time ; while , if it gets into the hands of negociator * and di plonuuistsagain it will sot be settled in another half-century .
rrom JLower Canada 1 hear that on the 14 th inst ., sentence of death wa . « communicated officially to fire more of tbe Benuharnois prisoner * : Louis Turcot , F . Y . Prerost , David Gagnan , Charles Rossin , and Andre Papineau , a nephew of the celebrated Loni * Joseph Papineau . Desire Bourbonnais , and Michel Longtin were recommended to mercy bv the court martial , And James Perrigo and Isidore 'l ' renblay were acquitted ; Loul « Buwden , Louis Tnrcot , and Francois Guntin , of St . Ceaaire , were found gnilty and sentenced to death . On the following day the types and pre . * s of a little seditious French newspaper , the Canadian Amorv , were s-ized at Montreal- and the publisher , M . J . P . Boucber Belleville , wa * lodged in prison . It is reported that Mr . Ellice has deposed ol the seignory of Beaukarnoisfor £ 150 . 000 -sterling .
We have importact news from Sooth America . A ship from Rio Jaserio , nailed l * t Febrnary , reports that information was received that d » y , and generally credited , that the French squatiron had commenced the bombardment ot Bueuos Ayres . New Orleans , March 12 Intelligence of a * ery painful nature from the coast of Mexico , was received in town , la « t evening , by < be house of M . Zacharie and Co . One oi the jadge « at Languna de Terminos bad ordered the arrent of Mr . Langdon , tbe America * Consnl at
that place . After hw arrest , Mr . L . was so cruelly scourged by a negio under the authority ef the judge , and that he rarnved the flagellation but a few day-. One accoan ; says that he e * eep « d from the d&ngeon into which he was thrown and died in a small village , between Lagnna and Campecbe . Mrs . Langdon had been ordered * back from Campeche . whither she had fled , to answer certain charges preferred against her deceased husband . The feftlingin all parts of Mexico is said te be rery strong against the French and the Americana . It is * uj > po * ed tbat this outrage was committed under an excUementof this kind .
