GUILDHALL , On Tuesday , Charlotte Clements , an old ¦ woman , was bioaght pp on a charge of begging . The charge -seas no sooner made than the 'wretched prisoner , made bold and almost eloquent by hunger Kid txtteme distress , exclaimed— " Well , if I did beg , is it not tetter to "btg than to steal ? One or the other 1 most do , or I mart starve . I hare set a bit to eat I have not a place in which to put my bead . I bare not a rag to put on . Whst most I 60 ? " She cried , and her roiee rang through the Ccsnt . Aldsrman Kelly was much aSected , and evidently pnnfied to answer her question . " Look at my body , " said she , raising her arms , which ware each thrust into an old stocking leg , and taming herself round in the dock , exhibiting her breast and her back , covered only with a piece of ragged linen—no-dress , shoes , ot anything .
"Jfow tell me , " said she , with great vehemence , the tmrs streaming down her aged checks , " what am I to do ? I could sell little things , but they must be bought ; and if I go to keg the money , I am seized aad L » ken to prison . " Alden&An Kelly—Where is your homeT Prisoner —Have I not said I haTe none . Alderman Kt-lly—Bat you surely know where you come from ? Prisoner— Oh , yes , 1 know that I come from Hunalet , near Leeds . One of the tierks stated that she was sent down to EnusJet some time ago , but had returned . Alderman Kelly—Why did you return ? Prisoner—111 tell yon why . My daughter , the only child" I had left out of thirteen , was taken up and transported . She was innocent , I know she was , as you , Sir , who never aaw her . Bat before she went I came to London to see her . That was not a guilty act was it ?
Alderman Kelly—Have you no friends at Hunslet ? Prisoner—Xoae . Father , mother , brother , sister , huaband , and children , are all gone . I have not a friend in the world ,. but Gad Almighty above me ; and sometimes I think be is hard upon me to take all away and leave me behind . The worthy Alderman ordered the Keeper of Bridewell to take ctarge of ha for a few cays , and supply her ¦ with , clothe ? . Afterwards they must Bee if something could not be done for her . [ We invite our readers to read the above , to read it M 31 every word is engraven not merely upon the tablet of the meuiory , but upon the more durable one of the heart , ard then say if a state of things which can first produce , and then punish such wretchedness , ought any
loafer to be suffered to txlit- We dare not say the tenth pan of what we feel on this heart-rending tale of horror . Here is a female , one who has been wife , parent , daughter , sister , —ill that woman can be to man in a state of absolute destitution . Prvp « fter prop has in the rujsterieus arrangements of Previdence , been renioTed , till g&e has neither stcJT nor stay rfTaalning ; and , to add to her misery , he eiT ^ r-3 : o i xisi wiiio-ui being criminal , are , by the aeeurssd system which the supintne * 3 and indifference of the people have suffered to be estac . khed in this eonntry , converted into a crime ; and all that a humane sugi&tr& ' ue can do is to send her to a prison , to keep her from becoming a thief . Talk about society ! but society easts not for her : she is an outcast . Uat thouga
society refuses "her net lights , it sternly demands a respect t-a its institutions , and tells her , in effect , that stould she starve , it has no tribunal before which to cite those whose cupidity and avarice have thus rendered them guilty of murder ; but if she steal to aatisfy her hunger and to clothe her nakedness , it has laws for the protection of prcperty , the iron grasp of which she must speedily be made to feeL It is fair to conclude that this woman , in bye-gone days , has rendered service to society ; she has , it appears , been the motber of tairteen children , the last cf whom the laws of the country has doomed to exile , for a crime of which the motber deems her innocent ; a ? d this seems the only consolation for the seared and widowed heart . She comes , Ehe says , from HunBlet , near Leeds , and she
finds her way to the emporium of wealth , to the abode of royalty , the British Metropolis , for what ? Te give ttoe list embrace to ber sole remaining child : and how touchingly she asks—" That was not a guilty act , ^ ras it ? " Yes , in the eyes of bloated capitalists , landlords , and landlords , a parent's feelints are , indeed , a deadly crime * . ' What right had she to feel ? How dared she to leave Hunslet in obedience to the calls of nature and hcminity ? How bad she the assurance to come to beg in London , rather than stay and starve at Ennslet ? Alas ! sbe >"" bo tie to Hanslet ? " Bite you no friends at Hvmsiat ? " asked the ¦ worthy magistrate . " None , " replies the prisoner— the fbiso > er : ! made £ ueh ¥ y her efforts to be honest ! •* None : Father , mother , brother , sister , husband .
and cUl&r . n all are g ^ ne . I have not a friend the world , tut Gxl Almighty above me ; and sometimes 1 tfaini he is barf upon me to take aU aTay , and leave me bfchiad ! I' We « g"fc these -who prate about " the obedience due to the laws , "" and " the respect ¦ w hich the poor are bound to pay to the regulations of society , " what claim the law can pat forth to the respect and obedience of ^ being so -wretched ? ' 1 eould seii V . uie -i-iEss , " she ssys , " but they must be bought ; nd if I go to beg the money , I am seized and taken to prison . " Poor ¦ wretcf : and cad she begged the money , and gone t » sell her things , another class-made la * w would have taken them from her , and consigned her to a dungeon for the crime of wanting four pounds to pay the Government for a licence to do so ! She has no ties to bind her to the world , and in the agony of ha despair she is almost ready to " Curse God ar . d die . " We shall probably be told that the Poor Law offers
assistance in such cises of destitution ; this "we grant , and we need no better proof of the horrid system of the pTistnt English Poor Lstb , than tlas can afford . Ko one but a maniac , under the old system , would have preferred such a state cf destitution to the provisions of the workhouse ; but see how such provisions are loathed and spurned since the Jlalthosiau wretches took the management of the poor out of the hands of * . ht > Magistrates sud Board of guardian" chosen by and responsible to the rate-payers , and plaoed it in the hands ef the triple-headed monster , the " Drvil King" of Somerset House .

fc " DVD * ERIA"NI > . On Sunday afternoon , Mr . "Will ' ams lectnrea at the Life Boa ; House , to " an unusually br ? e audience . The object of the lecture Yfas ro develops the prospects of Chartist Reform . The lecturer observed ia the introduciioc of the subject , iha : the question , wheiher the ardent wishes and hopes of the enslaved , for the attainment of a free and happy srate of society , were likely to be gratined cr not , could only be satisfactorily an-Hweied by an inquiry into the nature of man , and a calm examination of the tendency of those elements of change , which society now contained . Mr . W . then i-howed ih&i man was a progressive , and not a EtatioEary being ; that the law of his namre v ? as onward , onwara , notwithstanding the most powerful
obstacles offered by existing in-Btnutions , the people had advanced in the knowledge of their rights , interests , and duties , and rcere advancing , in that knowledge , while the spirit of fraternity was still extending , embracing one after another in one common bond of union , upon the principles of equal interests aad duties ;—that these elements made change inevitable ;—ihe question then was , what that ehauge would be—what direction that ? pirit of progression was taking I He then showed that Toryism wa > not the coming change , that the reaction " which had placed the Tories in power , was not % Tory reaction , that it was in fact a new action of the spirit of Reform ( which in 1831 , had carried the Reform Bill . ) npon more rational and
comprehensive principles , than ihe people as a Bass had ever yet been wedded to . The PTCSptCta of Whiggery were summarily dealt with ; the lecturer showing * "h&t Wiiggism was only a hypocritical form of Toryism , and was , like that system , doomed to immediate and nttcr destruction . The lecturer then gave varans and striking reasons , fer hoping that the next suscessful reform move ¦ would be one upoa the principles of the People ' s Charter . The peculiar natnre of Chanist Reform was then examined ; the ? p ? aker provii > n that it was the ociy just , comprehensive , and efficient system of political reform ; that it vras a system -wliich . ended iffimeoiately on i * s reception , to improve the individual in mind , feeling , and character , as well a » ultimately to regenerate and bless society . The knowledge of ita ' principles snd objects expanded the mind , infused a patriotic and philanthropic spirit
into the heart , and led to that nnion and co-operation for mutual objects , by which the spirit of selfishness wss crashed » nd the finest features in hnman character were formed- The lectnrer then ConUnded , Irons the extent to which the principles had already beec embraced , from the fact that other sj stems had been tried and found wanting , and still more from the fact that no other body or class or real or pretended reformers conld compare with - the nnion , firmness , constancy , and energy displayed by fte Chartists , that the Charier would speeduy , as ¦ well as inevitably , become the law of the land . He then concluded by impressing upon his audience the importance of individual duty in the great n * ° B * struggle in which we are now engaged . —Mr . w announced that next Sunday afternoon , Mr . Binns would lecture , upon which occasion there would be a collection made on behalf of Mrs . Fro 3 t .

MANCHESTER . —The ChartutRoom , Salter-street , was entirely crammed on Tuesday evening . A great xniny of ovr Sister countrymen were present . Mr . Christopher Doyle was called to the chair , and addressed the meeting for abent a quarter of an hour , expressing his joy that a room which had beat dosed by the despotic Whigs was again opened , and hoped they ( the people ) of that district would come out , and go on aa they had began , until their efforts were crowned with success . When they had that room before , many able addresses were delivered from the platform on which he then stood , and bo formidable were the Chartists at that time , that the middle class and shopkeepers , many of whom resided contiguous ,
professed to be Ckartista . After a few appropriate remarks , he introduced l > r . M'Douall , who , on coming forward , was greeted with loud cheers . The Dr . then went through a very able heart-stirring and convincing address , touching upon the obstacles which the Chartists have had to contend against The lecturer spoke in his usual explicit style , cleared up his points to the satis faction of the weeting . Mr . Leech afterwards delivered a short and effective address on the position of the chartists . A vote of thanks was given to the speakers , snd it vr&s announced that Mr . Pfailp would lecture in that room on the next Tuesday evening , after which the crowded assembly dispersed , evidently highly pleased with what they had beard .
LEEDS . —O'Coksob a . sd O'Brien's Demonstration . — The time will soon arrive when the " caged lion , " and that noble of nature , O'Brien , will be liberated from the grasp of Whig tyranny . The Chartists of Leeds and its neighbourhood have determined to welcome the above gentlemen , on their liberation , by a public demonstration , to shew them the people know how to appreciate honesty and patriotism , and prove to the factions that Chartism in Leeds is not dtad , nor yet sleepeth . A committee ha 3 been formed lor the above purpose , and have determined upon issuing , at their next meeting , collecting books , with printed headings , and appointing places where s-ubscri ptions will be received . The committee will meet again on Tuesday evening next , at the Association Room , Shambles , at eight o ' clock precisely , when it is hoped there will be a numerous attendance of the committee and friends of the good cause , as business of great importance will be brought before the meeting .

EX GLAND , IRELAND , SUUTi . AXS » , ASH WALES ; Passed at a Public Meeting of their Sex , ho ' . den in the Chartist Room , Tib-street , on Wednesday , July Sis * , 1811 . SiiTEHS in Bondage , —We , the females of Manchester , feel it our duty , at this important crisis , thus to address yoa , from a conviction that our principles and motives need only to be known to gain your assistance , appiec ' . av . OD , and co-operation , iu gaining our object . . .
Our principles are justice to all , and injustice to none ; a right to subsistence in ihe land of our birth . It may be asked by those who wish for things to remain as they are—by those who are not actuated by a desire to save their country from impending ruin , why we engage in and concern ourselves aboui politics ? In reply to which we say we have an interest in . the prosperity of the country . We all spring from one common parent—are the children of one all-wise Creator , who has provided for all j therefore we have the same right to subsistence , though dwelling in a cot , cellar , or garret , where forced by circumstances over which we hav 3 had no controol , as the lady in the drawing-room , or the ballro ~ m , or the Queen upon the throne .
A lo ? e for ourselves , our husbands , our children , our country , and everything valuable in existence , stimulates us to take a part in a snuggle which we " conceive calculated to end in success , and thus avert the awful calamity that has been for some time , and is now pending over us ; and which will certainly overtake us f not thus averted . We take our stand , also , as a matter of right ; as fully and fairly illustrated by circumstances before our eyes . Surely , if by our labour we are compelled to maintain two Queens at the exprnce of £ 570 , 000 a year ; and if a female is alloived to take the highest seat in the state , and give directions for the government of the country , we have a right to struggle to gain for ourselves , our husbands , brothers , and children , suitable houses , proper clothing , aad good food . Then , Sisters , we ea . ' l npoa yon iu behalf of upwards of four hundred fima is . who had their husbands torn from them at
the instigation of clats-made law iu 1839 , and placed ia dungeons for merely wishing to redress the grievances which press upon both you and us ;—left without their guardian ; and protectors at the mercy of ihe public , with a for ' . om , torrowful , and agitated mind by day , weeping and mourning and sighing over their husbands' sufferings ; and dreary , restless , and sleepless hours by ni ^ ht , their children bereft of kind and affectionate fathers , and the long affection and concord which existed betwixt them cut asunder by the tyran : s . We call upon you on behalf of the wives of those unfortunate men , Fro > t , Williams , and Jones , who are left disconsolate , h ? an-broken , and in a state of ai > x ety for _ their husbaiids , who are sent across the seas ; subject to insult , torture , and slavery ; od behalf of the widow , Mrs . Clayton , whose husband died in Northallerton prison ; and on behalf of the good , true , asd virtuous men who have suffered , and are now suffering
imprisonment . Sisters , if ever there was a time when it wa 3 our duty to shake off our lethargy , and engage in a grand struggle for liberty , surely it is now . Does not the sword of persecution draw nearer and nearer every day , tyrannising over us in various ways ! Thousands of both male 3 and females are walking the streets for the want of employment , compelled to pledge and sell their clothes and furniture to purchase food to supply their physical wants , uuiil their houses and clothes boxes are nearly empty , while the pawn-brokers and furniturebrokera' shops are wedged and crammed with the
furniture and clothes of the industrious poor . Our granaries are full of the food which providence has sent , and the warehouses are full of clothing , while thousands are starving . How grievous mu&t it be to sea our husbands wandering the streets , willing to woik but unable to procure it , thrown out in const q'ience of the improvements which have been made in machinery ! What can be more piercing and heartrending to a woman than to hear her offspring crying for food to satisfy the cravings of hunger , and she uone to give to them ' . And after pledging and selling ' all they have , driven to begging from their neighbours , who are in the same condition as themselves , ' or nearly so !
What prospect is there for ub , when our husbands are supplanted by machinery , except to emigrate to a foreign land , or be inmate 3 of a Poor Law bastile , which will be inevitably the lot of a large number pf our fellow creatures without a speedy change ! Sisters , seffering humanity cries for your assistance at this most important crisis , to endeavour to alleviate the miseries which every where abound amongst the industriuus , yet starving millions . We ask for nothing but what is consistent with the laws which God has laid down in the unerring standard of divine truth—the Scriptures , aid exemplified in the laws of nature .
. The fowls of the air , the fishes of the sea , the beasts of the field , and etery other living agent , have enough , without either toiling or spinning , while we can scarcely get sufficient to keep body and soul together , for working twelve- ot thirteen hours per day . Should such a state of thingB exist , when there is sufficient for every man , woman , and child in existence ? Justice and common sense say no ! Then why is it that , in the midst of plenty , we are in such a condition ? "Why is it that those who are willing to work , that those who have produced everything valuable in society , without whom the factories would . not have been built , the machinery made , the railroads constructed , the canals cut , who build and man the ships , who fight the battles , make their hats ,, shoes , and coats , aud till the land—cannot get enough to quell the rav : ngs of hunger ! Why , because they have ne power to make laws that influence the distribution of such wealth .
It rests with the industrious people whether they will any longer submit to a system so wicked , fraught with injustice and misrule . Up , then , brave women of England , Ireland , Scotland , and Wales , and join us iu the cry for the Charter , which will protect labour , and secure plenty , comfort , and happiness to all ! Give us your support in paying due respect to our champions who are about to be released from their dungeons , and lead us on to victory , namely , O'Connor , O'Brien , and Benbow .

Josrph Sharp and John Sluirp , who had been convic ' . ed of a highway robbery at Southowram , and stealing money from John Pearson , were sentenced to be transported for fifteen years . James Hnigh , who had been convicted of highway robbery , was also sentenced to be transported for fifteen \ ears .
Jcseph Turner and William Houseley , who had been convic ; ed of % buTglary in the house of Wm Dyson , at Ecclesfield , were then sentenced . —The Learned Judge observed that this burglary had been commuted uuder circumstances of particular aggravation ; they had attacked the house of two old persons who were grievously and most fearfully alarmed at their conduct . He ( the Judge ) concluded by observing that it was necessary that a xavero sentence should be passed , for the purpose , if possible , to repress such crime 3 , and the sentence therefore was that thpy be transported fourteen years .
Jo eph PWiug , who had been convicted of a burglary in the dwelling-house of George Carver , the toll collector , at Shelf , was then sentenced . The Judge baid the circumstances in this case were also of particular aggravation ; a more violent attack was scarcely ever proved in a court of justice , and it was with great difficulty that he could escape with his life irom the violence that was used . To be transported for fourteen years . William Smith and James Bailey , who had boen convicted of a burg ' ary in the house of William Wilson Tingle , at L" > w Ash , were severally sentenced to be transported for ten years . James Shatc , who had been convicted of stabbing John Brocreles , at Gargrave , was sentenced to bu imprisoned twe years to hard labour . Eli Hopk ' mxnn , who had been convicted of stabbiug Daniel Walker , of Clifton , was sentenced to be imprisoned eighteen mouths to hard labour .
William Watson , Joseph Race , John Wood , and Samuel Cotton , who had beeu convicted of sheep aud caxtle stealing , were severally sentenced to b ? trau 3-p <> rted for ten years . James Parker and James Wheldon , who had been couvicted of forgery , were next placed at the bar . In the case of the former , The Learned Judge faid it was of the very first importacce to repress such offences , aud it would be contrary to the interests of justice and of the state that surh a crime as this should be lightly passed over . The sentence of the Court therefore , wa ? , that he should be transported for seven years . Whe . don , who had ben convicted on two indictments , was sentenced to be transported for seven years on each of them . The prisoners on leaving the bar said " thank you , Sir . " Thomas Stone , Samuel Gelder , &n < iSatniiel Martin , werr next sentenced .
His Lokdsmip remarked that each of them had been convicted of aggravated assaults , in the course of which they had also been guilty of the offence of wounding the parties . It was very fortunate for them that the Juries , before whom they were tried , had acquitted them of the heavy pan of the offence . He observed that it wa 3 an un-English and unmanly act to use such weapons as they had done . He sentenced them to be imprisoned for one year each t hard labour . John Hanson , who had been convicted of having counterfeit coin in his possession at Bradford , was sentenced to bo iinpri-oned six calendar months .
William Ha <; gas , wV . o had been convicted of bigamy at Leeds , was placed at the bar . The Judge faid he had been convicted of the crime of bigimy , by which he had inflicted a serious and irreparable injury upon a woman who seemed to have reposed her confidence in him . It might pos 3 ibly happen that he "was labouring under the impression that bis first wife was not alive ; but whether that was so or not , he could not but see that he ought to have made further inquiries , and to have ascertained more particularly the fact before he had entered into so serious a contract . It was necessary that he should pass such a sentence as would act as a warning to others . —To be imprisoned one year to hard labour .
James Dealtry Steete , who had been found guilty of a conspiracy , with intent to defraud , was next placed at the bar , and on his being asked it' he had anything to say why judgment should not be pronounced against him , Mr . Bliss , his counsel , rose and urged etieral objections to the indictment , the result of which was that the prisoner was ordered to stand down .
THE ALLEGED MURDEB AT MIRFIELD .

NISI PRIUS , Thdbsday . CIUVEN AND OTHBBS V . THOBNHIIX . ( SpeeialJury . ) IMPORTANT DECISION RESPECTING " TENANT BIGHT"AND " LANDLORD-RIGHT . " Mr . Chesswell and Mr . Hildyabd were for the plaintiff ; Mr . Knowles and Mr . Tomljnson were for the defendants . The claim of the plaintiffs was for two sums , one for £ 289 , sad the other £ 62 , of which £ 110 had been paid into Court . The plaintiffs were tenants of T . Thornhill , Esq ., of Fixby Hall , near Huddersfield . The father of the plaintiffs , some sixteen years ago , became tenant of two farm 3 under Mr . Thornhill , one called Wadland Hills , and the other Woodland Hills , which he occupied till his death . When he entered on the farms , he paid a certain valuation . Mr . Craven died in March , 1839 , and his three sons ( the plaintiffs ) succeeded as tenants to
the farms , which they occupied till the autumn of 1839 , when a notice to quit was served upon them by Mr . ThornhiU's agent , Mr . Ramsbottom . Before the period arrived when the ; were to quit , an intimation was given by Mr . Ramsbottom , that he had appointed a Mr . Li ° ter to value the out-going crops on the farms ; the Cravens appointed a Mr . Butler to value on their side . After some delay , caused by Mr . Ramsbottom intimatiDg to Lister that he had better defer his valuation , as he suspected that the Cravens had not truly stated the terms upon which their father had entered on the farm , the valuation was gone into . The valuers had completed their valuation on the 20 th of February , but in consequence of this intimation , Mr . Lister did not decide
the valuation till after May . When he did make his valuation , tho defendant said the Cravens had obtained it by fraud . Mr . Butler's valuation came to three hundred and ten pounds for Wadland Hills . Mr . Lister ' s valuation amounted to the sum of £ 289 . As tho two valuers could not agree upon the amount , it "was determined that the matter should bo referred to a Mr . Smith , as umpire , whose award was to be abided by . The before-named intimation of Mr . Ramsbottom ' a , that there was a special agreement , prevented an appointed meeting for the umpire to decide this matter ; and as Mr . Thornhili ' u agent refused to pay more than £ 11 ( 1 , the present action wasbroughtto recover the amount of the valuation as made by Mr . Thornhill ' s own valuer , Mr . Lister .
Mr . Knowles , for the defence , said , that Mr . Thornhill had paid £ 110 into Court , which he contended was sufficient , and more than sufficient to pay all that the plaintiffs were legally entitled te . Mr . Craven held under a special agreement , and had no right to claim under the custom of the country . He accused the Cravens of obtaining the valuation by direct falsehood and fraud , in stating that they entered to the farms without any special agreement , when tho fact was , that they held under tho terms of a lease which had formerly been granted to a tenant of the very farm in question ; which lease required that a certain proportion of the land only should be ploughed , one third ; and the Jury would at once infer that tho remaining portion , two-thirds ,
should be left in grass . He should also prove that so far from James Craven , the father of the plaintiffs , having paid any valuation when he entered upon the farms as was * alleged , he had not paid one single shilling . These facts he should prove by the mouth of competent witnesses . Witnesses were then examined for the defence , by whom it was attempted to be shown that when che farms werti taken the conditions of a lease that had formerly existed were named as the conditions by which the tenant would have to abide ; and that , under those conditions , the sum of £ 110 , paid into Court by the defendant , was amply sufficient for the
valuation . The difference arose from there being more than one third of the land under the plough at tho time the tenant left . One of the witnesses , a Mr . Lee , the former tenant of the farm , was called to prove that ¦ " " old Craven" had paid him nothing , as oui-going tenant , for tenant-right , or valuation ; and this he swore to most lustily : on cross-examination , however , he let out the ugly fact that ho had claimed a valuation as out-going tenant ; that it had been allowed himto theexreiu ( he . only occupied one of the farms ) of more than £ 135 ; thatheowed more than £ 100 rent ; and that Craven had paid Mr . Thornhill the amount of the valuation , which had been set-tff against his ( Lee ' s ) arrears of rent .
The lease , under whose provisions it was soughtto bring the Cravens , was al ; 0 putin and read . It turned out to have been granted in the year 179-, to tho then tenant , aud was for a period of fifteen years . The provision which was sought to be established against the plaintiff : * was , that during the last two yean of the tenure , tho holder should not plough more than one-third of the land . Mr . Ciikss \ v £ ll , in his reply , animadverted in severe terms on the conduct of Mr . Ramsbottom , in bringing charges of fraud against the Cravens , which the evidenco he had offered was incarableof supporting He observed that such men as Mr . Thornhill were
Completely in the hands of his agents ; and that he was not to blame for tho pitiful and humiliating exhibition which had been made in that Court : but agents were bound , in justice to those whose characters were at stake , to weigh well what ttiey were about ; to bo sure that they had a good case before they dragged their principals into a Court of Justice to prefer charges of fraud and falsehood against honest men , for which charges they had not a tittle of evidence to adduce . With respect to the mouMrous attempt that had boen made , to bring the Cravens , who were merely tenants fromyear-to-year , liable to be quitted ( as they had been quitted ) by six month ' s notice ; with regard to the attempt to bring men so situate under the provisions of a lease granted for a certain term of years , he must characterise it as the most impudent and unjust thing that he had ever known . The provisions of the lease where wholly inapplicable to a
yearly tenant . For instance ; the very provision that so much stress had been laid upon , provided that during the last two years of the tenure only one third of the land should be ploughed ;— ( it did not require that the remainder should bo in grass;—it it merely required that not more than a certain proportion shsuld be ploughed )—but how could this apply to a tenancy from year to year ? H > w could the tenant know which were the '' two last years of his tenure ? " when six months' notice could quit him I The attempt was monstrously absurd—and as unjust as it was monstrous . He again characterised the whole defence as miserable and shameful—reflecting disgrace upon those agents of Mr . Thornhill who had made him appear as a vain wanting to defraud his tenantry of their jun rights . He was satisfied the attempt would / ail . Tiie Jury wauld stand between his clients and the attempted injustice . He confidently relied on their giving a vi-raict for the plaintiffs .
Lord De . nman then summed up . He observed that this was an important case—a very important one . It involved many and high considerations ; aud in order that they mn ; ut have the case fully before them , he would read over to them the whole of the evidence taken on both sides , commenting on such portions as he might deem it necessary to give hii opinion upon . He claimed their best attention while he did so . His Lordship then road over the evidence , interspersing the several portions of it with observations to the effect , that if the jury were satisfied that the holding in this case was under written agreement , that is to &ay , under the provisions of the old lease produced , they would find a verdict for the defendant ; for it would be then apparent that tho valuation which had been ptocuredwas procured by false pretences : on the contrary , if they were satisfied that the provisions of that lease were , as
bad been ably contended , wholly inapplicable to a tenancy from year-to-year , and that tho valuation which had been made , was made in accordance with the custom of the country , ( and of all these tilings they mest judge from the evidence adduced by both parties ) ; if they were of opinion that these things were so , they would find a verdict for the plaintiff ? . The Jury retired for a short time , and then returned with a verdict for the plaintiffs—Damages to the amount sought : thus , ia the most marked manner setting their face against the attempt which had been made to secure to Mr , Thornhill , as landlord , all the advantages of a lease , while the tenantry were loft without any of the advantages arising from leases , —amongst which certainty of tenure for the period embraced in the lease is not the least important . The result is of the highest moment to tenants similarly situated to the tenantry of Mr . Thornhill .
One thing connected with this trial must not be lost sight of : it was the means of briuging the " good Old King , " Mr . Oastler , once moro into Yorkshire . The plaintiff ' s attorney applied to Mr . Richard Oastler , as is usual when it is imagined that evidence can be obtained , for information connected with the subject in dispute , with a view to subpeeaa him aa a witness . Mr . Oastler , however , as was learned from Mr . Cresswell ' s opening speech , refused to give any information that way at all ; pointing to his peculiar situation with regard to Mr . Thornhill as his excuse . The plaintiffs hid him removed from the Fleet Prison upon a Writ of Habeas Corpus , for the purpose of giving evidence if it was needed . Mr . Cress well , however , did not call him into the box , as his case was fully established by the two witnesses ha did call ; but he offdred to place him in the box , if the other side wished it . This , Mr . Rameboitom did not desire—so Mr . Oastler " was not
examined . The " good Old King" looked nraob . better than could be expected , considering that he has lately been Buffering from an intermittent fever , brought on by excessive fatigue . He is recovering rapidly from itB effects ; and we sincerely hope that the jaunt he has just had into hisbelovedYorkshire , at Mr . Thoiujhill ' s expekce , —( the verdict carrits costs !! . ' j—will completely restore him to health . It was pleasing to see the manner in which all parties , Whig and Tory , paid their respect to honour and integrity in the person of the respeoted Oastler . The cordial

greetings and hearty shakings of hands batween Sim ana barristers , and gentlemen suitors , defendants , jurymen , and witnesses , and attorneys , and coroners , and farmers , and laboubers , were truly delightful to -witness ! One Bcene was peculiarly affecting . Mr . Oastler mat an " old and faithful ( fellow ) servant "—one who has been discarded like himself—( Ramsbottom snd Redhead know why in both cases !)—and whom he had not seen before for several years . There they stood together 1—the "Old King , " and the older man—the " faithful steward , " Oastler , and the no-less faithful James Thompson . The meeting was so cordial , so affectionate , that many an eye was moistened amongst the lookers on .
Mr . Oastleb had the pleasure of seeing Mr . O'Connor in his cell twica during the day he was at York . He was evidently highly gratified at being favoured with the opportunity the trial afforded him of meeting Mr . O'Connor so much sooner than he expected . We heard Mr . Oastler declare , after he had left Mr . O'Connor , that the room in which he is confined is much worse than the strong room where the refractory prisoners are confined in the Fleet ; and in this opinion Mr . Oastler was fully borne out by the officers who had him in charge . Mr . Oastler ( with his two attendants ) arrived in York on Wednesday evening ; he departed back to bisjprison by the quarter to nine o'clock train on Friday morning ; and would sleep in the Fleet that night . He was evidently much gratified with this visit to Yorkshire ; it fully proved to him that he holds the increased esteem and good-will of all who know him .

Leeds Cloth Markets . —There was not so much business done at the Cloth Halls on Tuesday last , as on the week previous , and manufacturers again complain that they cannot sell their goods . There is , however , some small improvement in the general trade , as compared with what as been the case for some time . Newcastle Cobn Mabket , July 24 . —We had a very moderate supply of Wheat offering this morning , which at the commencement of the market realised an advance of 2 a . per quarter , but before the close the Bale became languid , and the extent of business done was not great . Rye of fine quality meets with a ready sale , but inferior sorts move off slowly . Grinding Barley is much inquired after , and would command full prices . Malt , Beans , and Peas are without alteration . The show of Oats from the country to-day was small , and prices were the turn dearer . The arrivals of Flour this week from Norfolk and Suffolk are considerable , but the demand being good , the greater part has been disposed of . Onr millers have only partially succeeded in establishing the advance noted last week , and in consequence 50 s . has not yet beca exceeded fcr households .

State of Trade at Stockport . —The utmost distress prevails among the manufacturing population of this town , in consequence of the number of hail da out of employ , and the short time which has bees worked at a number of mills during several months . This state of things , we are sorry to say , is likely to be augmented , as the whole of the workpeople employed at Messrs . Lane ' s mills , situate in Higher Hillgate , and Newbridge-lane , will be thrown out of employment this week end—they having received notice that the concerns will be closed , and their services no longer required . The above extensive establishments have for several years been working under inspection . Upwards of 4 , 000 hands will be thrown out of employment by the stoppage of these mills .
State of Trade . —The gloom which hung over the Manchester market , in consequence of the continental bankruptcies alluded to last week , has been deepened by accounts of very extensive failures at Paisley , where thirteen houses are said to have stopped payment , at the latter end of last week , for an amount , collectively , about £ 300 , 000 . Though the immediate effect ot these failures upon parties resident in Manchester will probably not be very serious , they are calculated to inspire great distrust , and , coupled with two or three failures which have recently occurred in . this town , had , no doubt , a material effect upon the market ye * terday » which was one of the worst that has been experienced during the present year . Yarns and goods were both depressed in price , and very few sales could be made , even at the very lowest rates hitherto current . The depression was probably in some degree
increased by the unfavourable appearance of the weather , which , after three or four comparatively favourable days , has again put on a threatening appearance , and serious fears are now entertained that a late and defective harvest may be added to the other causes which press with such tremendous severity upon the manufacturing interests . Two large spinning and manufacturing concerns , one at Macclesfleld and the other at Stockport , which have been for some time past worked under the inspection of creditors , are about to be closed , in consequence of the unprofitable nature of the business . It is stated that the stoppage at Stockport will only be temporary : ; but that , we presume , must depend in tome degree upon the future state of the trade . In the mean -time , at all events , the effect upon the workpeople will be very serious . —Manchester Guardian of Wednesday .
Manchester Corn Mabket , Saturday , July 24 . —There was a fair supply of Wheat , Oats , and Oatmeal from Ireland , and the arrivals coastwise are likewise to a . moderate extent . Of Foreign Wheat anW Flour the imports were not large , but there are 19 , 173 barrels of Flour and 2190 quarters of Wheat from Canada . At our market this ! morning holders of Wheat demanded an advance of 4 d . to 6 d . per 701 bs . and the transactions in Flour were at an improvement of 2-v per 2801 bs . on the rates of this day se ' nnitfht . Oats were held at Id . per 451 bs . advance . Of choice parcels of Oatmeal there were but few samples offering , and an improvement of 6 d , to 1 ? . per 2 t 01 bs may be noted ; and for Beans and prime samples of Malt we raise our quotations lj . per quarter and load respectively .
Liverpool Corn Market , Monday , July 26 . — We have this week had moderate arrivals of British Grain , Flour , and Oatmeal . The imports of Wheat from Foreign States are liberal ; these , however , have been placed under tho Queen ' s locks , and the arrivals of Wheat and Flour from Canada ( consisting of 3 . 049 quarters , and 15 . 381 barrels respectively ) , have also , for the most part , been put into bond , under the expectation of the colonial duty falling to the minimum—6 d . per quarter vand 3 id . per barrel . During the greater part of the week , the weather has been unsettled , giving further excitement to the Grain trade , under which large iraiisactjons have again occurred in bonded Wheat
and Flour at advancing prices ; 7 s . 6 d . to 7 s . 9 d . has been paid for Baltic red , and 89 . per 701 bs . for s ; ood mixed Danzig Wheat ; 263 . 6 d . to 27 s . 6 d . per barrel for United . States ; 333 . to 343 . per barrel for Canadian Flour . Free Wheat has been taken to a moderate extent by the millers and dealers at an advance of 2 d . per bushel for finer qualities . Free Flour must also be noted Is . per sack and barrel dearer . Both Oats and Oatmeal have been held for higher rates . ; 3 s . 2 d . to 33 . 3 d . per 451 bs . obtained for best mealing qnalities of the former ; 26 $ . 3 d . to 27 s . 3 d . per load for Irish Oatmeal ; grinding Barley must be quoted 2 d . per bushel ; Beans aud Peas each Is per quarter higher than at the close of last
week . Liverpool Cattle Market , Monday , July 26 . — The number of Cattle at market to-day has been somewhat larger than the preceding week , but of Sheep and Lambs considerably less . There was a good attendance of buyers and dealers , but Bales on the whole wot so brisk . Good Beef sold at 6 £ d ., varying froia that down to 5 £ d . agreeable to quality . Gjod Wether Mutton was iu fair request at last wcek ' 8 quotations , about 6 Jd ., but the middling and ordinary qualities were but little sought after from 6 J . down to 5 j . per pound , and Limb from 6 d . to 6 id . sinking the offal , and a good number left unsold at the close . Number of Cattle at market : —Beasts . 9 QG ; Sheep aud Lambs 7971 .
London Smithfield , Monday , July 26 th . —On account of the arr . val of Beasts up to our market this morning being considerably on the increase , anS the weather somewhat unfavourable to slaughtering , tho Beef trade was exceedingly heavy , at a depression iu the currencies noted on Monday last of 4 d . per libs . ; the highest price obtained for the best Scots being 4 s . 8 J ., and some portion of them were turned out unsold . From Scotland , we received 200 Scots and 370 Sheep in excellent condition . We were very moderately supplied with Sheep , whilst the sale for thorn was steady , at fully last week's quotations . Although the number of Limbs on the tnarkei was small , the demand was heavy , at barely stationary prices . . Calves were in fair supp * y , aud sluggish inquiry , at previous rates . In Pigs , scarcely anything doing .
London Cobn Exchange , Monday , July 26 . — There was a good supply of Wheat from Essex , and a fair quantity from Suffolk , but that from Kent was only moderate ; and of Barley , Beans , and Peas from all these counties , there was a very limited show . There were several cargoes of Oats fresh up from Ireland this morning , ana a few vessels from our own coals and Scotland , with this article . The imports of foreign Wheat during the past week were good , with a few cargoes of Barley , and a fair quantity of Canadian FJour . The weather having been more favourable since Friday , the trade was not so lively for Wheat as en that day , but the advance of Is . to 2 s . then obtained has besn established this morning for all fino qualities of English , and our millers took the choicest samples more freely at the close of market ; good free foreign brought a similar improvement , with a steady demand . Bonded Wheat met a fair sale at Friday ' s quotations , which were 63 . to 4 ? . per quarter over those of last Monday and the trade in this description wu'firmer than that for free samples . Town-made Flour was pat up to 60 s . per sack to-day , and ship-marks wer < j Is . to 26 . per sack dearer . Barley , being scarce , was Is . per quarter dearer . Malt was quite as high and good samples were in fair request . Beans and Peas commanded an advance of Is . per quarter . Oats were taken off steadily ; prime Corn realising rather more money than on this day se ' nnight , in si mo instances to the consumers for fresh and sweet parcels 6 d . to Is . per quarter higher .
