Mr Lbathbbiakd , deieeatfi of Kettering , moved tie first resolution . He « aii tbe working classes were now , and had long been , suffering preat evils from tjje want of political represent * ti-w .

Mr . Bobbbt Eimer nsade some serere remarks upon the eondoet of the Tory prw * . Be challenged the Editor of tbe Bcrald to come forward now , and substantiate bi » base chanre » against ^ he Chartists . The Chartist * wi-re not iBfidelB and heathens—they were true believers in tbe true word of &od . They beTieved tbat God created u « to love and cherish each other , and te- stretch forth the hand of benevrfenct to the poor in tbe hour « f their distress : not to thrust them into a baadle to perish . They believed in the word of God , which taught , 'that be who woald not work , neither should he eat . They believed in
the word of God , which taught that God was na respecter of persons ; having made of one fiesh all the nations of the . auto ; aud regarding not the rich with mor » complacency than the poor . Th ^ r askeaonl j the rights ot peaceable citizens and good Christians , and they called upon every parrior to &-hj [ them in the assertion of those rights .

. Mr . Jones , delegate from North WaVs , w ? s hailed with long and continuous cheering . He addressed tbe meeting in a long and elujuent speech , during which he reminded them that the strongest proof of the rectitude of their priaciples was tbe fact of their being loaded with obloquy by those who subsisted oc the spoilg which bad been " wrung from them . ( Hear , hear . ) Christ was crucified , * nd good men had been persecuted in all age . * , fer the propounding of doctrines similar t » those * hieh were now advocated b y them . Mr .

He tben instituted a comparison between tbe effect * ef the factious Government under the
name of monarchy in England , and the democratic Government in Nora-aj ; arid concluded , araidst the plaudits of the meKingr , by recommending prudence , caution , order , asd peace .

ARREST OF MB . VIUCENT . To the Editor of the Sun . County Gnol , Monmoutb , South Wales , May 19 , 18391 . Sib , —Tour paper , of Thursday , May 16 , containB a report of a meeting « f the Coarention , held in Birmingham on the preceding day , at which meeting my esteemed friend , Feargus O'Connor , is reported to have mad « certain remarks relative to my impri'ocnient in this gaol . Amongst many others I rind the follewiDg :: — " He had been told it was Mr . Vincent ' s intention not to accept bail ; " an * further— He ( Mr . O'Connor ) tfeougbt th » t wtten a mau refused bail , whg wa § able to get it ,, the country w « uld cali him a coward , and woal . i gay , this man has been arrested fer a bailable offence and he refuses to take bail because be is afraid © f facing the danger he has himself created . '"
. Now , Sir , how stands my case ? I was arrested upon a warrant , signwl by three magistrates of Newport , Monmouthshire , upon a charge of " sedition , and endeavouring to make the working clashes discontented ! " I-wa ? examined before the county magistrate ? , in the town of Newport , oa Friday " , May 10 . I cross-examined the witnesses , and felt spch thorough contempt for their twaddling depo ,-sitiens , that I declined offering any observation * at the close of the proceedings . The magistrates tben retired , were absent about three minute ? , returned , and said they had eonsidered my case , and decided to bind me over to appear at the Monmouth Assizes for trial , myself in tbe IUID of £ 500 ' . and two sureties of £ 250 eaeh ; and also to be of good behaviour to our liege Lady the Queen for twelve months !!! Thibk of that , Master Broke I
I do uot know what the people think—but 1 should think myself unworthy th * name of Radical , and unfit to hold a place in the people ' s affections , were I to accept my liberty (?) upon such ea * e conditions ! I was not astonished at th « decision of the Magistrates ; they belong to the class of " fiHe old English gentlemen , '" who look upon the "State CWcb a * by law established , the " Corn Laws , " and " the New Poor Law Bill , " at " the Constitution "—and upon all Radical Reformers aa men who make starving people " dissatibfied with " their condition . " » J 1 >
" Good behaviour to our liege Lady , " forsooth ! Softly , good Magistrates I Fir * t prove , by trial , that I have misbehaved to our " liege Lady , " before you receive bail for me for my "good behaviour . " "Wh y , I im one of the best-behaved persons in tke nation in which "our liege lady" lives . I am anxious to see all the people living by their honest industry , and in the possession of th * irjust political and social rights ' I intend to be removed before a Judge by a writ of habeas corpus , to take bis opinion upon the heavy nature of the bail , as well as to the eonditioni thert-unto attached—and , whatever the result may be , I shall be perfectly contented .
I would beg , through tlis letter , to inform my felow-countrymea , tbat I embarked in the Chartist Agitation with a full conviction of its necessity , as well with a perfect knowledge of the dangers by which I should be beset—and it is with no small degree of pleasure that I find myself worthy of'the persecution of our mongrel Finality politicians . How long I shall remain in prison I know not—but I ^ m resolved nevt-r to leave it but with honour to my-elf , and crtdit to the cause of the impoverished and toiling millions . You will be kind enough to innert this in your paper , as I have ua other meaus of setting myself right with my fellow-countrymen .
I am , Sir , - ^ Your obedient * erfSnt , Hknry Vincent , ( mr . o ' cotjxor ' s reply . ) My dear Vincent , —My observations with respect to arrests ia general , hid no reference whatever to your case .

have my approval for every step you have taken ; and should you decide upon a different course , I am ready to be one of your bail , upon the condition that you will not abstain from attending public meeting * . You have not been a * violent in denouncing oppression , as onr rulers have been in fortering it . 1 bare given £ 5 towards your defeace , and ysu shall not want the mrans of attaining justice . I always staud by my friends in the hour ol need . "Wishing yon health , and pow « r to beat the roffiaai ' , I am , faithfull y , Your sincere friend , Fkauotjs O'Connor .

HORBTJBY . Defeat of the VThtos and Torus by the Radicals of Horburv . —According to announcement a public meeting was held at Horbury , on Thursday the 9 th of May , and ( raking into consideration the population of the lown and the mean ? used to put the meeting down ) we believe that there never was a greater display of "Whig and Tory imbecility and of Radical courage and strength , since th-s grea . t Charter cause commenced . The facts relative to this meeting are these : on Thurs - day , at one o ' cl&ek , the bellman was sent ro * nd te announce that the meeting would take place at six o ' cleek—that the object was the support of the
Charter ; now this caused a general move among tbe Wbig » and Tories , and if erer they did a deal ef work in a little time , it was on tbe above named day . They had first to consult how or by what means they might put the meeting down , and bow it was that they came to any settled point we are at a loss to know , for the shock was so great , that their nerves were completely relaxed , and continued so through the whole day ; but after having ran about , met and re-met , the matter was finally settled , and it was thought needful for th » preservation of the peace and the protection of property , to haTe the a ? sistaoce of two magistrates from 'VYakeneld ' , be , sides one which we have is the town , and these three worthies proceeded to swear in about thirty epecial constables ; besides a constable and twd police-officers from "Wdke&eW , they eajled up tbe
neifjhbounns oavairyy-and stationed them at Wakefield tobeinreadineis ; bow one would have thought that tfeey would haw « Bypoe « daU tb ' w would aa-ve been sufficient to have witkbolden the stootest bean among . theBadtcal * froat ever attempting to hold the meeting which was int « nded ; but not so , their fears had not yet pnbsided ; and to give the whole of their proceeding * still greater importance , they pot printed , circulated , and posttd , a numfcer of "bills which read as fallows : — " Caution . The inhabitants of Hotbury are requested not to attend the meeting intended to be held ia the . , town this day , by persons calling themselves' Chartists , ' as such meeting will be contrary to law ; the magistrates have received gtrict orders to put down suck meetings , aid special aonstablet have been sworn ia to assist in keeping the peace , and a pprehending the ringleaders .

STOCKPOaT . Proorsss of thb Cau 3 e . —Female A <» o-CIa , tion .- —Notwithstanding the apathy of ' tbe people in this borough hithertoy we are glad to- be able to report 'prwgresV' and at the same tim * Wish to ackobwledffr with the due quantum of gratiSude , the favourable assistaac * which tbe emaecile Whigs have lent . u « towards effecting a complete organizatioa of the moral and pbyaical force of this district . The friends of the Charter have long and pen > everingly exerted themselves tn accomplish tbis objeefc in vain , bat no sooner wa » her mpfltgracious Majesty ' s proclamation placarded , than hundreds rallied round the Working Men '»
Association , anxious to assist in preserving her Majesty ' s peace , and desirous of knowing by what means they might most successfully promote the peace and welfare of her realms . This effusion ol leyalty has not been coafined to the males only , and it is with pleasure we have >© announce tbe spontaneous formation ef a Female Association , the tirBt meeting of whi : h was held ' th > evening ; atd at which the followisg spirited resolution was adopted . Mm . E . Kushton in tBe . ^ b air . Moved by Mrs . Hill , aud seconded by Mm . Weedirh , — "That we , the working women of Stockport , in meeting assembled , haviDg carefully eouddered ths
present distrea ? ed state of ourselves , families , and the people of this country generally , add convinced thatauch distress does net or cannot proceed from any faultor extravagance of the workiag olasises , feel it oor . beunden duty to inquire , into the causes which have produced such melancholy and distressing effects . We regret tbat we shotild be driven by dire necessity to depart from the limits usuall y ' prescribed for female duties ; but when , as motheiW , wives , and daughters , wt find it ' impossible to diacnarge those duties in o « r relative ' . capacities ^ when even with ' the moot rigid economy we .-are unable to provide for the actual necessaries of
subsistence—when we are no longer able to pay the rent of oar miserable shelter—when the local tax collectors are daily threatening to deprive us of the few articles of furniture we possess- when no otbtr prospect remain * fof us , but that of ending our days in a New Poor Law Bastile , to be separated from onrchildren , husbands . a&d parents , for the wretched remainder « f onr . Hvei ^ and after death be gubject . to the horrible dUsecting . fcnife—we feel justified in declaring our conviction that nsthing less thai > th « adoption of the priaciples of the People ' s Charter can effectually remove the exJMting distress , or secure the iafety of the worktag classes , and therefore agrt » to form an Association for the purpose of aidin || lm carrying the Charter into effect as a law—peacWbl y , tf we can , forcibly if wemiwt , "
lhe meeting , was subsequently addressed by Mr . Mitchell , who , in an able speech , exhibited the doings of the "Whigs atd the effect of tbeir patronage in this pra-emintntly Whig borough . In the course of hU address , he stated that MLr . Coppock , our . town clerk ,-declared that the New Poor Law was the best act ever passed : and Mr . M . humourously observed , that he was perfectly right in thinking so , inasmuch as he pock « ted a salary of £ 120 per annum , ' as ' eiertc to the Board of Guardians , independent of his other Whi g pickings . After voting thanks to the prssident , and appointing" officer *; the meeting , which was numerously attezded , separated , after evinciDg a degree of xpirit and enthncjasm in the cause of freedom , which would cause the most eminent of your moral force men to blush .
HVB 3 . Public Meeting . —On Friday night week , auch a spirited meeting took plate as we have seldom witnessed , especially in so short a notice ; it having been announced in the afternoon af the name evening , that Mr . Beegan would address hi ? constituents in Hyde , when long before the appointed time hundreds . had astferobled . round the building , anxiously waiting for the opening of the doors , when Mr . John Brodby wan ' . unanimously called to the chair , who with a . short address opened the meeting and then called ¦ upon Mr . Deegan , who was received amid prreat applause ; after the cheers had subsided , "Mf . Deegan gave to his constituents , an account of his stewardship in -the Convention , and
was rapturously . cheered all through , rljp atrongly urged upon the people the HeCCSSily of withdrawing their Bnppertjfrom the binkB , and also of abstaining from all intoxjfc&ting drinks , or any thing that paid enormous dnttes . Mr . Deegan went on at great ltngth , and sat down amid the most : remendouscheeriag ; af ^ er which the meeting was addressed in . a . short , but eloquent style by Mr . Higgins of Ashton , and Mr . S . Thorpe of Hyde . The then meeting , concluded by giving three hearty cheers for Mr . Deegan , three for the Conventien , and a vote of thanks to the Cuairman , when the meeting quietly dispersed . Also , on Monday night , it was resolved unanimously , to engage a band of rnusifc f « r the purpose of going with the procession on Whit-Saturday to Kergal-Moor meetiDg . . " " ' ; . ' -

that had ever taken plaee before , notwithstanding the weak-minded folly of some of tbe masters , who had threatened to ; discharge every man of theirs w be attended such meeting . Those who attended were sufficiently noroeroun to show the tyrant taskmasters that their power in that respect was becoming weakened , and the time was not far distant when the industrious labourer should be equally fre » with the proud property lump of earth which new controls them . Three bands of music entered
the town at an early hour and paraded with tbeir banners and flags in North-parade , from whence ta « y walked to the Green , whikt -hundreds of individuals were seen on the road peacefully pursuing their journey along time before the inufiigcame up .. In the evening they entered the town about seven o ' clock , preceded » y the » nsic , and hundred * were aaxiou » ly waiting tbeir : : ]« turn , no doubt expecting that the tight nad b *» n wade complete , as all sorts of Teport 8 Bft * fedoeab » oa 4 thattha revolntion was to begin on tha ^ d-ay , and tbe soldiers were t » be wt to nre on ftrs people .
