MOTHER GOOSE . "We are irresistibly driven , and , indeed , contrary to our express resolution , to say one word of our -friend in her forlorn stare . Trie funeral pail which she so modestly threw over tie mangled carcasses of her flock , on Saturday last , leaves us something to hope from her modesty . Of . course , we mean the sad and mourning exhibition xiven as a " correct view of the interior" of the
ilaEgruer-house . The sight , ihe very eight , was eaengh to chill the hottest blood , and freeze the warmest imagination . We never 5 a w a more dismal figure on the blackest tomb-stoae , or a more fitting « gn for such a shop . A fewraw-boned nap and white feathers would have made it Icok like what it truly was , the hearse of a departed virgin sister ; for , alas ! ii contained the consumptive remains of the maiden Association—the spinster ' s corpse .
But ** JN ' J cisperandum ' is tne last atd best p . ank of ; he skipvrrecktd politician : and we shall look ¦ aaxiocsiy , on Saturday , for one of these grand strokes of novelty so innocently hinted at in Mother ¦ Goose ' s > * eff Year ' s prospectus , and in which she ascribes her advance to her frequent flights of fancy and changes of opinion ! May we loe , ihen , justly look for one of those
itaniing bursts of imagination—an electric shock of fancy—a lurid flame of livid light—a volcanic eruption of boiling genius ; and , by one touch of her magic wand , why not strike the chimney-pot off tie Parliamentary H-o-n-s-e , say presto , and , by a fablime tiLrt of harlequin-wandism , convert the inisimnepile , —the H-o-n-s-e , —into U-n-i-v-e-r-a-a-l ? "We hare seen changes and transformations far more incredible .
iiiyvrt not expect to receive chastisement for otr umioi ; y , and rebuke for our lagging policy , by ic announcement that our Universal Suffrage means EK ning , aid that the irue and m 2 gical transformteoa means , the enfranchisement of man and beast —cm , troEsn , 2 nd child !

We fear the case ' 13 hopeless : and we woa'd fcongly recommend our friend to study the fiddlefwalt of local policies ; to be a great man in ward cd Tes ^ y meetings ; to keep a jealous eye over the wporation and all its works ; in short , to be agreat kmaarj in a littla sphere , which he may irradiate ; for we assure him that his flash is lost Iwng before * ' r ises above the horizon of the great political isffliiphsre . ^ egi ? e this advice with the most kindly feeling , * £ < i ihall , at all times , be happy to assist a friend in fcehotir of need .

THE "SUN , " AND ITS AUTHORITY . , We give the following few lines from the Sun . — " Fridat MOB . SISG . —Mr . OConnell did not appear at . the meeting yesterday , and I belieTe that it was fortunate he did not do so , for tome persons were apprehended by the police , baTing daggers in their possession . This ia a fact of which I have been informed upon authority on the correctness of which I bare every reason to rely . It was to oppose and ahout him down , that the Chaitista were organised in such numbers , and it was for this purpose , too , they had
supplied thenuelves with whistles , the effect of which they first tried upon the Chairman , upon Mr . Hume , and Mr . Roebuck , the last of whom so properly rebuked them . The meeting itself was , as far as numbers-went , a very magnificent one , there being present at least bight thousand persons , and of these there were not leas than fifteen hundred Chartists ; the remainder were Reformers , who look f jt Vote by Ballot , Household Suffrage , and Re-distribution of Electoral Districts , Triennial Parliaments , and no Property Qualification far Members . "
Of this we shall merely say that the " penny-a-liner " who wrote it , also concocted it : and , when he wrote it he knew that he told a wilful , barefaced , malicious , but harmles 3 lie—harmless , because it appears " on authority" in the " Sun . " In very truth , we lament and grieve that our contemporary should aDow himself to be made a standing joke for scribblers , the butt of " authority . " No matter where the jest cornea from , whether from Bristol or Lseds , the poor Sun is sure to be the victim . We need not contradict the assertion , as every one knows that it is false as false can be . In fact , some of our domestic " Suns " would have rejoiced too much in the God-send , to have allowed the metropolitan luminary the first cut at the tit-bit .
In anotner part of " Mr . Authority ' s" report , he says that " a half-drunken Chartist , upon the platform , observed to him that there could not be fewer than 50 , 000 persons present . " This is as big a lie a 3 the other fact " upon authority ; '' for , unless " Mr . Authority" himself was drunk , there was not a drunken man at the meeting . In what is called the comment upon the proceedings , the Sun appeara to think , and would make others think , that the meeting was for a compromise of
minor differences , and waj terminated by an alliance among " Reformers . " Poor luminary ! how dark his lamp shines J The compromise was just this . — The Chartist 3 said , in very plain term 3 , " Behold our banner and our motto , —the Charter , the whole Charter , and nothing less than the Charter ! and those who are willing to enlist are welcome . But no party snail agitate for any less measure—not even for a repeal of the Corn Laws , the ' honest Ballot , ' H-o-u-s-e-hold Suffrage , or Short Parliaments ; " and this is what the Sun calls compromise !
The meeting was the death-blow of faction and of Whiggery , and of fiction , which is better . Bat why waste bo much time with the butt of " autho-Just a word . O ' Consor , who had no more to do with the meeting than the Sun , ia charged with all they choose to alledge ; while , most anxious in the midst of so much affected accuracy , every one of the " Establishment" stops short at the vote of confidence in O'Coxxor—not one publishes that part , " upon aathorify , " of the meeting .

THE PROPOSED " UNION " MOVEMENT . We request attention to a very well written letter on our 7 th page , signed William Hick . With the sentiment ? , generally , expressed in that letter , we most cordially concur . Wo think , however , that the writer has mistaken both the meaning aad the probable effect of the address from the several Chartist delegates published in our last . He seems to think that the " beneficial union of the working classes with-the honest advocates of right in every other class , " spoktn of by the delegates , must necessarily involve the placing of the people under
middlecias 5 guidance and leadership , and he is naturally therefore ft . ariu . 1 that some similar humbug to that of the R ; form Bill agitation will be practised on them : indeed ha broadly intimates an opinion , that it is the purpose of the delegates to solicit the middle classes to come out and " lead " the people . We believe him to be , here , labouring under a great mi 3 take . We believe that none of the delegates mean any such thing . The only union" contemplated by the delegates , or by the people , is this;—They think the time is near , when all the classes of society , who live upon
the labourers , will see their own interest to beneceefariiy and immediately jeopardised by the longer denial of jnstice to the masses ; and they expect , therefore , to see the middle and higher classes come over in a body to the Universal Suffrage ranks and lend their aid to the accomplishment of that which they have hitherto impeded in its progress , as the best means of securing the continuance and establishment of their own rights , and of our position , altogether , as a nation , among the nations of the earth . In that case they will accept the assistance of those classes ; they will show to them the difference in spirit between a people and a faction ; they will suffer the mantle of returning hone 3 ty
to cover the foulness of past delinquencies , and admit them to the privilege of co-operating for the general good . But whoever thinks to place them again at the head of any popular movement will find the people having too vivid a recollection oi their former pranks ia that position to allow it to be done . No , no ; the people know them too well . No more middle class leadership . ' No more Reform" mania ! The people have taken their own affairB into their own hands ; the helm of the vessel is under their own guidance , and it will require more tact than is possessed by the parties whom our friend seem 3 to fear , to wheedle it from them ; and more force than they are possessed of to wrest it from them .

H . Griffiths . —We thank him for his numerous and valuable favours ; but we have no room for the " talk" of the Tories at Canterbury . Henry Tommet . —We have received an insolent letter from some man , under this signature , about some communication , sent to us along lime ago , and rejected . He threatens to go to every public meeting , and tell the people that the Northern Star is a paid Government paper ! His chief cause of anger seems to be that as toe have not inserted his missive , which was to " shake the very foundation of a corrupt Government , " we have not returned it to him . Now we have given public notice many times , that we do not hold ourselves bound to take care of rejected correspondence : and that all parties setting so much value on their lucubrations as to wish for their
return , must keep copies for themselves . We see no reason for making this Mr . Tommey an exception to this necessary rule , even though ihe infliction of his sore displeasure be the penalty . If our "devil" chance to stumble on his papers while rummaging out the Balaam box for paper to light the office fire with , and if the said "devil" acquaint us with that circumstance , we will order it to be immediately posted off to Mr . Tommey , that he may therewith light his pipe : but this is all we can possibly do for him .

HARfcESTON ( Norfolk . )—The Church Rate War . —On the refusal of Mr . Laidler , dissenting preacher , of this town , to pay a church-rate of Is . 4 ^ d ., the usual le # al proceedings were commenced against him ; and a table and seven chairs were seized from his bouse , undor a distress warrant , which were brought to the hammer b y Mr . Hedgeman , on the 18 th inst ., and disposed of at low prices to two individuals . A large concourse of persona collected together , of whom a great number were diFsenters , but , however deep their curses might be , they certainly were not very loud , for things passed very quietly . At the conclusion ,
however , a tew of the wannest dissenters appeared quite chop-fallen , and entirely lost their equanimity . High words were bandied between them and the auctioneer , and we imagined we heard threats of " Slapping your face , if you say more to me "— " Do , if you dare , I defy you "—and "A coroner's inquest will be the next thing we hear of , " &c But it might arise from our dullness of hearing ; of course , it is quite unreasonable to suppose that such words could ever escape the lips of our " moral force" Whigs and Tories ! We will yield to none in our attachment to genuine liberty , including the redress of all " Dissenter's grievances ; " but , from our soul , we believe that the opponents of church-rates are not animated by a spark of true
patriotism . We will say nothing about their directing their opposition against the trifling church-rate , whiht of the enormous amount levied in the shape of tithes , we never hear a word . We will pass this over , and just analyse their " conscientious" professions . All their opposition is for " conscience " sake—all because they wish to bo done unto , as they would do unto others . Now , we will just aBlc , is not the execrable New Poor Law as adverse to the conscience of every humane man as the church-rate can be to the dissenters 1 Is not the usurpation of the natural and social rights of the people of this country , and the forcing of tyrannical laws , which aro the ofl ' -pring of unlawful might , down the throats ot' the people , as adverse to the conscience of every true Chartist , as compulsory assessments can be to the dissenters ! We unhesitatingly declare they are , and of vastly more consequtnee to the temporal
and eternal well-being of the people , than their trumpery , trifling church-rate ? How these hypocrites have respected the conscientious scruples of Poor Law Repealers and Chartists , let thoir servile , " godly" journal answer . Have they not always bmi tho foremost to urge on tho harpies of the law to prosecuto men who have ten thousand times more to complain of than they have 1 And who , instead of seeking the good of a class , or a sect , aro wishing and striving for Universal Liberty , both body and mind . Self is the " ruling principle" —in this struggle they aro totally regardless of the Hoaventprung rights of their lellow-crcatures . Wore the dreadful persecutions of the days of the whoremonger , Charles the Second , revived , and Ihe dissenting body brought to a kuowledgo of that Truth which they profess , but , unhappily , know not , they would acknowledge that Heaven was just to them in these retributive judgments . —Correspondent .
LONDON . —Journeymen s Trades' Hall District Meeting . —( By our own Correspondent . )—On Monday evening , the committee for promoting the erection of a . Journeymen ' s Trades' Hall in the metropolis , convened a public meeting in the schoolroom , Aylesbury-street , Clerkenwell , in furtherance of their object ; at half-past eight Mr . Peat , carpenter , was called to tho chair , and in a lucid address demonstrated the advantages that must accrue to tho working men of London from the erection of the
contemplated institution . —Mr . Hetherington , who was received with loud and general cheering , moved the first resolution : — "That this meeting is of opinion , that the present condition of the working class , whether as individuals , or composing the various trades of London , is unjust and degrading , and that tho comfort , economy , and influence of tlieir numerous trades societies would be greatly enhanced by the erection of a hall in some central locality , where cheaper and batter accommodation could be offored for their
meetings , with a coiubination of intellectual and social improvement secured to the members . "Mr . Boggis , in a temperate and well-received addre .- ' ? , seconded th q resolution ; which was put from the chair , and carried unanimously . —Mr . Richard Moore came forward , amidst general applause , to move the second resolution : — "That this meeting is of opinion , that the plan and constitution of a proposed London Journeymen ' s Tradeb' Hall , " as now submitted , and which is eurolled under the Acts of Parliament , 10 Geo . 4 ik , c . 56 , and 4 and 5 Will . 4 th , c . 40 ; is eminently designed to promote tho convenience and political and moral elevation of the labouring class , and earnestly recommends to tho individual operatives of this great metropolis , the
necessity and importance of their respective trades ' societies immediately taking shares from their funds ; that by their powerful patronage they may stimulate the private exertions of their numerous members , and unitedly secure the speedy erection and permanent management of so desirable an edifice . "Mr . Potts , a delegate from the basket-reaker » , in a calm , argumentative , and impressive ) speech , seconded the resolution . —A gentleman , ( whoso name wo did not catch , ) s ' ated that ho had only this evening taken up a sharo in the undertaking . Ho most anxiously and ardently wished it success ; and , with the permission of the Chairman , he had a few questions to ask tho Secretary : —1 . Have any tvadea ' societies taken up shares , and how many ? 2 . From
what class of trades do tho Committee find tho greatest encouragement ? 3 . Havo they any account at a banker ' s J 4 . What amount of monf-y , belonging to the Hall fund , is any member allowed to hold ! 5 . Is it contemplated to erect District Halls , in the event of the Central Hall proving successful ? And 6 . Are any profits expected to be realised , by letting the Institution for other purposes than that of the trades!—Mr . Farren , the Socretary , replied , that about seven or eight united trades have actually taken shares and p » id the money , and as many more have givea the Committee favourable answers . 2 . They had derived most encouragement from those trades that must necessarily have the greatest hand in the erection of the bulding . 3 . They had an
account with Messrs . Prescott , Grote , and Co . in Threadneedlo-Btreet ; of whose liberal conduct to the Committee , Mr . F . spoke in the most eulogistic terms . 4 . The whole amount held by the three Treasurers on the Cosimittee did not exceed a dozen pounds . 5 . This question would be best answered after the operation of the comtemplatcd Central Hall should have been tested ; and , lastly , there could be no doubt whatever that a considerable profit would accrue to the shareholders , by allowing other classes the use of the Hall , at a moderate price , when not required for their own purposes , it should be borne in mind that as much as forty guineas were paid for Exeter Hall , for one evening —that this Committee have economised their fundei , eo that not a &oul has received a farthing in the way
of remuneration for services , neither the Committee nor the Secretary , who have to stop out night after night , at some expence , and at tho sacrifice of domestic comforts at home , receiving one farthing from the funds . ( Hear , hear . ) Mr . Farren concluded by announcing that the Committee had decided on holding their next district meeting on Monday next , at tho Temperance Hotel , Adelaidesquare , New North-road ,, Islington ; in order that every quarter of the metropolis should , as far as practicable , be made acquainted with the objects sought to be achieved . —Some other speakers addressed the meeting , particularly an eccentric old gentleman , who caused much merriment and mojfo uproar , after which thanks were voted to the Chairman , and the meeting broke up .

that-, on every Sunday iiight , there was a . riot in tho streets . Yesterday evening , as I was going by the Bush , I saw a crowd of at ieast five hundred persons vehemently hooting at and endeavouring to as .-ail some person who was in a car , and who appeared to be obnoxious to them . 1 went immediately to the police-station , called out tho reserve force , and had the street cleared . The mob , however , again got sight of the obnoxious individual , and ran after him , and I was obliged to give him in charge to the police for his own projection . The entire riot appeared to me to be owing to some well-dressed young men , who headed and organised the mob , A party then came to me , and claimed protection , as the Hall of Science was in the possession of the mob .
I went down there , and saw again the same young men who before headed the mob . I have nothing to do with the dogmas of Mr . Owen or Mr . Brindley , but one thing is clearl y our duty , as magistrates , and that is to afford protection to the public , and I , for one , will do it . —Lovell : I am satisfied the police encourage the mob . When the Inspector came down to the Hall , last night , he said it served us right . —Mr . Superintendent Fisher : I said you first kick up a row , and then sent for us to put it down . There have been more rows since the Hall of Science has been open than we ever had before . — Mr . Newman : The police have no business to express any opinion at all , one way or the other . They are mere machines in the hands of the magistrates .
However wrong it may be to hold these meetings on a Sunday , and 1 think it is wrong , still the police have nothing to do with that . Suppose any of the mob had heard the remark yoa made , why they would imagino they were doing right , and thus it is that rows ensue . —Mr . Herapath : It is the duty of the police to afford protection to all her Majesty's subjects . —H . Hay ward waa then sworn : I am not a Socialist ; I was at the Hall of Science Jast night , and 1 saw the prisoner in the act of breaking open the door with a large log of wood . He was knocking against the door and kicking at it . —By Mr . Herapath : I did not see him break any furniture . — £ dward Poole sworn : I am not a Socialist . I saw the prisoner go into the Hall of Science ; he went to
the platform and lighted a candle , and made a kind of speech ; he then came down from tho platform , collared a person , and asked him if he was a Socialist . The individual replied " No ; " and then the prisoner said , ' -Simkin is in here ; we will have him out . "—The prisoner said ; I had beeu drinking at the Trout till hadf-pa&t nine o ' clock , aud on coming away 1 mot the mob and went to see what was going on , but I waited outside the doors and took no part iu the row . —The witness : He collared mo axd fcaid , " Don ' t I do my ^ duty like a man t" The witness added , I am no Socialist , but I don ' t like to see the commonwealth destroyed . "—Mr . Shaw , a gentleman who reports for tho Journal office , here called out , " I bave heard privately that the prisoner cau
produce witnesses to prove his innocence of the charge , if he is allowed time . "—Mr . Burgess wished to Know if Mr . Shaw was a witness in the case . —Mr . Herapath : In what character does Mr . Shaw attend here J Is he an advocate f—The prisoner then called a young man as a witness , who said be was drinking with him till half-past nine at the Trout . On their return they heard a row and went to see what it was . Tho prisoner did not try ot break in . There wns a large mob inside , breaking the things to pieces . —Poole said tho last witness was himself on the platform and taking part in the row . —A boy of the name of Beard then appeared to give evidence on behalf of the prisoner , when Poole identified him also as one of tho rioters , aud said he
saw him take a large stone and break a lamp . —A person of the name of Fisher then stopped forward , and said he could give evidenco . On being asked if he was a Socialist , he said he was . In reply to questions from Mr . Herepath , he said , " I believe in a state of rewards and punishments i I believe I am accountable for my actious ; I believe in the contents of the book I hold in my hand . " The witness was then sworn , and said— " The first noise had partly subsided in the premises , and I went to open thfl door of the ante-room for the females who wei-e there , to escape . I opened the door , and saw about twenty individuals in tho room ; 1 saw the
prisoner take up a piece of quarter-staff and strike something with it , and then go to the side door and strike it . That was the door leading to the room in which the females had taken refuge . —The prisoner was ordered to find sureties , himself in £ 20 , and two others in £ W each , to keep the peace , and in default was committed to gaol . —In the course of the morning , application was made for summonses against other parties implicated in the above transaction . It was stated that the most disgraceful proceedings had taken place ; that the benches and desks had been broken up , thc-fittinga pulled down , and the dome skylight smashed , and that £ 50 would not replace the damage done .
SHEFFiElD . —Murder in Sheffield . —On Sunday morning , a dreadful murder was committed in Sheffield , on the body of a man named Beck . The circumstances were of a rather peculiar nature , as it appears the murdered man wanted some improper intimacy with the murderer ' s wife . The husband , named George Riney , on returning home late laat Saturday night , heard , before he entered his houso , cries from bis wife , of " Now don't ; now give over , for I expect my master home directly . " On pushing open the door , he saw the house was in total darkness . Thinking that the parties were in criminal intercourse , he rushed in the direction whence the sound proceeded , and laying hold of the intruder , proceeded to inflict
upon him sundry heavy blows . They closed , and falling upon a card-tablo in the room , smashed it to pieces . On the floor Rauoy was uppermost , and he seized Beck by the throat with one hand , and struck him with the other . A gurgling noiso in tho throat of Beck alarmed Raney ; and he rushed from his own house to his sister ' s , where he expressed himself very fearful that he bad killed a man ; but whom he did not know . On learning that Beck was actuall y dead , he declared he would eurrender himself to justice ; and was leaving his sister for that purpose , when he mot tha constable seeking him . An inquest was held on Monday , before Mr . Badger , the coroner , when much evidence to the effect above stated was adduced , aad the inquiry eventually adj-jimied till Thursday .

A . fellow-prisoner stated , that the
poor woman was much troubled in bed with a cough all night previous , and tfcat she said the clothing was very thin upon her . The poor creature was put on the treadwheel twice the following morning , and the witness gavo the following account of her death ¦ : —I was sitting on my seat waiting for my turn to go , there were four or five persons on the wheel at the same time , when the deceased , who had been up the last time about five minutes , told two of the girls to get out of her way as quick as possible , when she got down and sat on the seat . She looked very ill , and turned quite blue in the
face , and never uttered a single word . I ran to her assistance , and supported her upon the seat , when she expired in my arms . " An attempt was made to clear the prison functionaries of any alleged neglect , but the foreman of the jury remarked , — " that there was no doubt that the death of the woman was accelerated by the hard labour and prison regulations , at a time when her frame was debilitated by illness . " Ho added that the surgeon could not be aware of h er illness , &s she never mentioned her cough to him . Verdict— " Death from Natural Causes . "
Serious , if not Fatal Accident . —As Mr . Saml . Field , manufacturer , Pudsey , was returning from the sale of machinery at Mr . Chambers' mill at Horton Bank Top , on Tuesday night last , and when descending the hill to Shear-bridge near this town , the girths of his saddle suddenly broke , by which he was thrown from his horse with great violence , and falling upon his head sustained such severe internal injury that his life is despaired of . Yesterday , he was totally insensible , and the blood flowing from his ears proves that his situation is a very critical one . —Bradford Observer .

Glasgow , 19 th January , 1841 . Sir , —In-your last paper , January 16 th , a letter of Mr . O * Connor ' s u given , in which tha following passago occurs : — "Every ' one knows how I worked for tho cotton spinners . I attended their second trial in January They came horns the other day with an injunction from Brougham , Wakley , and others , to take no notice of ins . They wer « within an hour ' s journey of my dungeon , and they turned their backs upon me . I forgive them . If they are « vet prosecuted again , I will defend them again . "
The first part of this paragraph is true to the letter , and I need not , as an humble individual , confirm what I trust is generally known and appreciated by every working nian in the realm , —thatAlr . O'Connor spares neither exertion hot expence to forward their interests , and befriend them , when others forsake them in the hour of peril ; . But it ia the second sentence of the paragraph to . Which I would direct your attention ; wherein it is stated that the liberated cotton spinners had certain " injunctions from Brougham , Wakley , and others , to take no notice of Mr . O'Connor . " This , Mr . Editor , I deny in the most emphatic manner ; a ok less in justice to the parties charged , than in vindication of my own character , as I would be for ever sunk ia my own estimation , couid I have condescended to purchase my own liberation or the favour of others oa such degrading terms , at the expence of gratitude to » friend whom I revere through principle .
From whatever quarter Mr . O'Connor haa heard this , I can assure him and you , that it is wholly without foundation . / As to having passed his " dungeon " without paying a visit , J regret to say it is true ; but npt in the sense stated ia the paragraph . The truth is , our anxiety ' to meet our unhappy wires and children , made us travel at a railroad pace , in the fulfilment of engagements we had made with various towns ia Yorkshire ; while , at the same time , we were utterly ignorant of our proximity to York dungeon , when we took Vie railway from Selby to Leeds . This ia the true and only reason I can give , for circumstances over
which we had little or no controul . It grieves me te > hear Mr . O'Connor say we turned our backs on him . I will just in friendship say , "O thou of iittle faith . " Hoping , Mr . Editor , that you will give insertion to the above remarks , that 3 Jr O'Connor's mind may be disabused of ' a wrong impression , and that the publitt generally may know that the five persecuted and deeply-injured cotton Bpinneis of Glasgow , ntver could have sanctioned a contract that would have been alike discreditable to all concerned . Your insertion of the above in Saturday ' s Star , will oblige , Sir , jours , &c &c , Richard M'Neii .
Bank Tavern , 33 , Trongate . [ I give thiBJetter insertion , and I have but just one word to say upon it . The cotton spinners were several days in Hull , within three hours of York , before they came to Leeds . When they were at Leeds , I myself asked them if they would not go to York , the succeeding ( Lvy ,. to which I received an evasive and hesitating , reply . Mr . Hackett , one of the five cotton spinners , in the hearing of the others , told me in the Music Saloon , at Leeds , that the reason why they had , since their return , taken no public notice of O'Connor ,
not even returning thunks to him , was , because they bad been advised to that line of conduct by Mr . Wakley and their London friends . In none of the resolutions of gratitude for the exertions of friends , passed at the numerous , meetings held on their behalf , tbat have ever come under my notice , does the name ot O'Connor appear , save at Leeds ; and then it was forced on them by the meeting , having been excluded from their origihil progatnms of proceedings entirely . Let these facts speak for themselves . William Hill , Editor N . S . I

THE QUEEN'S RECITATION . KriusBr cares and labours , have , \ re presume , of late engrossed the time of onr chief magistrate so fully , that she has found it difficult to afford much leisure for the conning of tasks about state matters ; and hence , the only merit of the royal homily—its shortness . We are sorry that we cannot accord to it the other quality of a jackass's gallop—sweetness . It is . in every tvay deserving of the eloquent pliraseology of our gallant neighbour— " meagre aad miserable . " Its rejoicing is over the rapine , bloodshed , treachery , rapacity , and busy-bodyvillainy which characterize all our intercourse with foreign nations ; its congratulations are on
the peaceful aspect of our neighbours , while France 13 surroundiug her ci : iea with walls , and preparing to bristle them with cannon ; its prophetic hints are at more taxe 3 , and more stringent laws , to "keep down the Chan ; st 3 . The Chartis ; s , however , hare pretty well learned how to take care of themselves . They will laugh at the precautionary physical force arrangements which may be taken , and quietly render them all nugatory in their onward progress to the Charter . We cannot affjrd more space for comment on the first baiting , for the present session , of the Tax-trap , lest our passing note shoald fail , in both those essentials , of which we have stated the Queen ' s lesson to be deficient in one .
