LEEDS . Gas Explosiok . —Considerable alarm was excited A& Wednesday evening last , bj an explosion of gas » t No . 1 , SL James's-street . The family had bees amoved all the afternoon from an escape of gas ; fcoi neglected to take any steps to hare it remedied , nata about half-past five , when a person applied a jjijht sear the sink pipe in a cupboard , and &n im-» 2 iate explosion took plaoe . The Gm Company ' s nen ft ere promptly at toe place , and , upon examination found the main pipe broken , which had been Mi&sie&ed bj the sinking of the ground after
i branch drain from ue house iato the common sura had been made , the parties haying neglected to support the main in its original position . "We think the above circumstance is a Btrong awiive for increased care and vigilance on tbe part of the Water and Gas Companies , the former by the greatest care to prerent damage to the gas pipes , either from present breakage , or the subsequent settling of the ground ; and the latter to use eyery possible care in hiring their mains and jainehea properly repaired and made secure when the trenches are open .

A discussion ensued as to the best means of collecting subscriptions , whether by lists signed and sealed tj tie chairm&u of tbo masons' committee or by books ; it was decided that the subscription lists should be adopted . Mr . Armstrong Walton detailed seTeral particulars connected with the strike , and the great progress the cause was making is . the croTmces ; he also informed them that several of the
sea wao had gone in at Woolwich and Nelson ' s Monument had since turned out . Mr . WonhingtoD sUted that at the last strike they had received eeat assistance from the stone quarries , and that the men at stone quarries at Dartmouth , from whence Messrs . Grissell and Peto procured their stenes , were willing to strike if properly supported . The chairman , announced that £ 20 had been just iaaded in from the Bociety of tin-plate workers Aeetpg at the Ben Johnson , Bath-street , Coldb&tb fields . A discassion took place , whether twelve or Sfteen shulmgs should be allowed to the masons en strike , but it was ultimately left in the hands of iits masons' committee , and after the transaction of ether business , the meeting adjourned .

Bft'RTrflTi'gg . —Coalpit Explosiok . —One of the most awful and distressing accidents thai erer took place in this town , or it ever fell to our lot to record , happened about balf-p&ei sue o ' clock on Monday morning . Just as the men got to their work at Mr . Twibell's colliery , a fire-damp explosion took place , and no les * than fifteen of our fellow creatures were burned to death , and five more are only jost alive . The alarm and excitement that have been created in the town and neighbourhood , it is impossible to describe . At an early boor the bank at the pit was covered with thousands of people , all anxious to ascertain th » . fate of the unfortunate sufferers . This mournful catastrophe has filled the whole town and neighbourhood with gloom ; and the
distress of the relations and friends of the unfortunate victims is beyond all description agonizing . The deprivation to them will be truly grievous and irreparable ; and we trust some public effort will be made to sofien , so much as sympathy and charity can soften , its sad effects . Fifteen bodies in all have been got ont of the pit , quite dead , their names being as follow : —Three of the name of Hinobcliffe—an ancle and his two nephews . James Deacon and his sop , & grown np youth . Walker , ( who has left a wife and child J SahoJey , aad Mitchell . There 18 something particularly touching in this Utter man ' s case ; he had brought three bodies to the pit-bottom , and was in search of a fourth , when he fell a sacrifice to the dreadful and snbtle element and his own
exertions . Three brothers of the name of Walton , and a fourth not likely to recover . Thompson , Schofield , Pease , and M'Carty , the latter an Irish lad , literally roasted . The depth of the pit , which we are informed tis but badly ventilated , is about 180 yards ; and though several rumours are current as to the cause of the explosion , bnt little of a very certain character can yet be said of it . All , however , agree that it originated in one of the men going with a candle into an unsafe part of the pit for his tools . The concussion was heard and felt too a : an immense distance . It was like the report of a field of artillery , and shook down a wall near the pit . A yoang man named Walton was blown . Out of the t&rre , -rrhtlsi descending the shaft , and literally dashed to pieces ; whilst , singular to relate , two
others who were descending with him escaped with but little injury . This was the first time he had attempted to go down to his work since being severely burnt about three weeks ago . One of the most singular traits of this distressing accident , was the preservation of two of the boys descending in the eorre before adverted to . Although actually blown ont of the corve , they dropped into it again as it went down ; whilst , as we have stated , their poor companion fell t » the bottom and was killed . So abundant and overpowering w& 3 the baleful vapour which occasioned this dreadful calamity , that it was observed to issue from the shaft-mouth for fall three minutes after the explosion . An inquest was hevi on the bodies on Tuesday , and a verdict of " Accidental death" was returned .
HULH . —Public Mbkxisq at thb Towh-Hall . In compliance with a requisition , signed by 124 Householders , & large proportion of whom are voters , the Mayor has appointed a meeting to be held in the Town-Hall , at one o ' clock , on Monday , the 6 th of December , to consider the propriety of petitioning Parliament to take into consideration tbe present defective state of tbe representation of these kinddoms in the Commons' House of Parliament , with a view to its amendment . A soiree will be holden in the evening , at the Freemason's Lodge .

BOCHZ > AXiE . DEMONSTRATION IN HONOUR OF FEARGUS O'CONNOR , ESQ . On Tuesday last , the above demonstration took place , &nd the dispiay made on the occasion of tbe moral power of tbe people bat proved that the men of Rochdale are not last in showing theix love for liberty , and their attachment to O'Connor , for bis firm fcdherenoe to the prindpltt of Universal Liberty , and justice to the whole human family . Eu-Jy in tbe morning , groups begin to arrive at the Chartist Association-room from various surrounding diitricU . At tbe hour appointed for the meeting began to drv » near , the anxiety ef the people became intense . Parties were in waiting at the Railway station to convey the intelligence of his arrival to the Committee appointed to
carry out tbe demonstration . At tbe hour of twelve O ' clock at noon , a carriage and four drove np to the station , accompanied by the two roawb&lg , and » great number of the friends of our cause , who , upon the arrival of Mr . O'Connor , formed into procession ; and , headed by tbe marnhalH , and the powerful band of the Ch&rtut Association , proceeded down Poke-street to the place « f meeting in the Butts . There were several very beautiful flags in tbe procession—one from Todmorden in particular , a silk one , with , the representa tion of a bee-bivd in the centre—on the «* v £ » e , a furious bull , pursuing a nest of Bishop arir-ocrats , and other wholesale plunderers of the people . On the arrival of tbe carriage at the place of meeting , Mr . O'Connor was greeted with tremendous cheering , which lasted several minntes .
Mr . George Howe , jeweller and watchmaker , was called on to preside . Mr . Joba Leech moved a resolution to the following effect : — " That in the opinion of this meeting all the poverty and destitotioa which at present afflict tbe nanufac - luring classes of this country is the result of class legislation , and that the only ; remedy will be , to make the People's Charter tbe law of the land ; and that this meeting agree again to petition the House ef Commons immediately to place the Charter npon the Statute book ; and that this meeting pledge themselves never to rest until tbe whole of tbe people are taken within the pale of the constitution . " TGe resolution was seconded by Mr . Jos . 1 in >\ et .
Mr . O'Co . n ?> ob teen rose and made a brilliant speech , which was loudly cheered , but for which we hav » not roam . We understand , however , that his unmerciful fiigellaVion of tbe Sun newspaper , for a leading article on Monday last , wherein the monster directs . the incendiaries' attention to Buckingham Palace and- the Museum , was responded to by cheers and bravo Feargns , " which lasted for several minates . The distinction made by O'Connor , between an innocent . and unoffending woman and an irresponsible monarch , "was very beautiful Upon the whole , he gave the " firebrand press" a tremendous castigation . Thus writes our correspondent We regret not having space for Mr . O'Connor ' s admirable ftpeeeh . The meeting was attended by several thousands , who showed by their conduct that their motto was " Peace , law , order , " and that they will never be satisfied with any thine less than their just and legitimate rights .
At the conclusion of the meeting a procession "was formed , and proceeded through tho principal streets , accompanied by tbe band , flags , &c . Mr . O'Connor was sainted from the windows of several friends cf the cause , as the carriage proceeded through the streets , with tokens of respect and esteem . Tbe precession finally accompanied Mr . O'Connor to Mr . Tweedale'a Hotel , Bailie-street , -where he was again greeted with lond and enthusiastic cheering .
TEA PAKTT IN THE EVENING . At five o ' clock , the hour appointed for the public tea party , the Temperance Institution , adjoining the Theatre , was beautifully decorated with banners , flags , mottos , and devices belonging to tbe association , when upwards cf 400 sat down to tea . On Mr . O'Connor entering the room , be was greeted with loud cheers . The party enjoyed themselves in mirth , and harmony until the hour appointed for the public meeting in the Theptre . Long before the hour appointed the Theatre was crowded to suffocation , and numbers went away unable te obtain &dmi * £ ion . Mr . G-EOBGB Howe was again called to the chair . The first tcast of tie evening was " The People , the source of all legitimate power , which was responded to by Mr . James Tatlok , in a very neat speeck .
Tue Chairman then gave " The People's Charter , and may it soon become the law of the land- " Mr . Thomas Livsey waa called on to respond . He said he was glad the committee had selected that subject for him to respond to , for he firmly believed that this cenntry would never be justly legislated for until the principles of that Charter became law . Under oar present system of legislation we had every kind of property legislated for except labour . The Landowners , the East and West India Proprietors , the Church , and the Law , had e&ch their representatives , and each was protected , and by their political power were enabled to extract a great amount of wealth out of the labour of the people ; but if labour was jepreaented tbe system <* onl i be put an end to . ( Hear , hear , and cheers . )
[ At this stage of tbe proceedings the harsiony of the meeting was in some degree interrupted by a Tory church warden , wco appeared to be in a state of intoxicaton . Ho was appealed to on his impropriety , and shortly afterwards took his departure ] The speaker proceeded—There is now a plan of emigration proposed to remove the present unemployed pertions of the community , if the Government wanted to remove any of the useless classes of this country , let them begin by emigrating all the Bishops , parsons , aristocrats , lawyers , aad other pesU of society—( loud cheers )—whose only labour is to lire on the best of the land , and to be planning how to wring another farthing from the starving operative . If we had at the present time a great number of unemployed labourers , they should look at the cause , which was owing to excessive
taxation , by which tbe starving people are prevented from purchasing the goods of the manufacturers , and thereby giving Increased employment . He was BOTXy that the town of Rochdale was to-morrow to be placed under the power of the Rural Police ; it was a disgrace to the Tory psrty , who had petitioned for them , and thereby stamped their character with tefamy . He called upon the people to single out the parties who bad signed the memorial for their introduction , and if they dared to come before the public , to mark each infamy by every means within their power . He thought that Rochdale , above all other places , ought to be exempt from such an unconstitutional force , for they had shewn themselves capable of managing their own affairs , by sending to Parliament a sian who was an honour both to them and the country which gave him birth . Bat their introduction was the result ot diseppointe party

motives , and tbe people would never forget the party that had caused their introduction . Tbe act will be title meani of tnntMinting the last hopes of a faction tbat bare ever ffM J " | t " >? " themselves by crushing the liberties of tbe people . Mr . Livsey resumed his seat amidst protracted chawing . The nest toast was " Frost , Williams , and Jones , and may they speedily be restored to the bosom of their disconsolate families . " Mr . Joseph Linmey responded in a very feeling and affectionate nnm n <>> - Mr . John Leach then presented an address to Mr . O'Connor , which be did in a complimentary apeeob . As address wai abo presented by Mrs . Sarah Ash * worth , on eebalf of tbe female * of Rochdale .
Mr . O'CONNoa , in reply , addressed the assembly for upwards of an hear , in a speech replete with glowing eloquence , convincing argument , and deep pathos , which was only interrupted by the enthusiastic cheers of bis auditory . The eonolodiog toast was " The Lancashire witches , ' * which was responded to by ] Mr . Thomas Cook , in a short and humorous speech , which was well received . At tbe conclusion of Mr . O'Connor ' * speech , be called upon all tbe persons in tbe meeting to come forth and join tbe Association , and appointed Mr . J . Livsey treasurer for the M'Doaall Fond .
After the meeting , the band struck np , and dancing commenced , which was kept np to a late boor , to the evident gratification of the youthful portion of the meeting . Thus concluded one of the most orderly meetings ever held in this town , and it cannot fail to be beneficial to our rightful cause .

TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE THE LORD MAYOR OF DUBLIN . Mt Lord , may it please toue Lordship , —] should have presumed to address you a few days past , had I not felt a delicacy in trespassing on your valuable time , at a period wben you mast have had ample employment in receiving the tffice and honours of civic dignity , to which yoa have been lately exalted ; but . as the excitement and bustle consequent upon such an occasion are , by this time , I should hope , greatly abated , and your LoTdahip is now beginning to feel yourself at home in your new fuarters , I may , as an Irishman , be permitted to ask—was it indigpensiblt that the man whom the people of Ireland so long confided in aa a friend and a patriot , should accept the office cf Chief Magistrate for tbe City of Dublin ? or was it merely to enjoy a triumph over the fallen faction whom you displaced ? If the latter , I will only Bay I do not envy you your glory ; but if the former , I ask , of what benefit to Ireland will be your acceptance of such an office ? Will the cause of Repeal gain anything by such , a coarse ? I rather think that many persons will take example by your Lordship , and be Repealers in private , bat not in public
My countrymen have ever been too credulous and confiding , and this your Lordship has had many proofs of ; they have ever given you eredit for consistency , without even inquiring whether you merited it ; but they must be blind indeed , if they cannot now see you in your proper colours ; for sot content with the many thousands of pounds which they voluntarily contributed to enrich you , you covetted the paltry toy a of office , and to procure them " registered a vow" that no man should know yeur political opinions . Now , my Lord , I have no objection to your Bilence , or to your office ; nor do I begrudge you the honour of feasting on venison presented by the officer of a Tory Government ; bat I do feel hurt to see my fellowcountrymen made the vrilUng tools of your cupidity
and ambition . There is one thing , however , which gives me a great -deal of pleasure , and which I have no doubt will gravtify your Lordship exceedingly ; namely , as yon have been heretofore outrageously violent in your denuiTciations of Chartists , and would by every possible means attack the character of " Torch and dagger meu , " to show that yen have now the opportunity to examine , and the power to punish , should you find any sucfe within your jurisdiction ; that you have the will to de so there can be little doubt ; therefore , if we find no convictions amongst the seven hundred honest Chartists of Dublin , you will be obliged to admit that Chartism is not so " terrible a thing" as your Lordship has taken SO much pains to represent it .
1 have no doubt your Lordship will fceep your promise as respects your silence on political matters , bat I have no wish , save to furnish you with a few hints occasionally , which ycur Lordship can either muse upon in your easy chair , or reserve until heaven releases you from the solemn engagement yau have so voluntarily made . I have tbe honour to be .
Your Lordship ' s most obedient , Humble Servant , W . H . Clifton . Bristol , 74 , West Street . ^

secution , and in Bnndreth ' s death cell bad laid me down nightly on my prison bed of straw to dream of the future Then tyranny should wither and die . and equality , freedom , and justice reign triune sovereign of a liberated world . la that town where those musings of enthusiasm were nurtured , which at a subsequent period found Tent in speech , and brought down upon me the denunciation of epen enemies , and the slander of pretended but false friends , 1 was catted madman , fool , traitor , &e . < Stc And why ? because I spoke what I felt , •< O , could I feel what I have felt , o * be what X have been r
Says the poet ; but , that may not be;— 'tis a hard lesson to learn , to a young heart beating with the love of truth , that <• language was intended n » t to express bat to conceal man's thought *; " but , 'tl « a lesson tibat all miut learn , and all must more or less act upon . Talleyrand has been denounced as a monster for giving expression to the . above sentiment ; he was a monster , no doubt , bathe was but a little monster ; the great tyrannic monster is society , that-practically proclaims and enforces the ftbevs role . Am I asked , do I act npon that rule ? I answer , yes ! for I do not now speak all that IfeeL I feel more than tongue or pen can tall—much more ! In that town of Derby I once had friende—*• friends of my youth ; " perhaps by ; them I am now forgotten . Bat why pursue the subject further 1 the recollections of the past are painful , and if they recall a few gleams of sunshine , they serve bnt to render the darkness of disappointment more visible .
We reached the Derby Station about ten minutes past four o ' clock—that station with its innumerable offices and rooms of refreshment—its gas illuminstlonits scores of carriages and engines—the countless throng intent on business , pleasure , or other pursuits , that £ 11 its walks in one twenty-four hours—is one of the proudest trophies of man ' s skill and labour to be found , probably , in any part of the world . But a murderous social , or rather anti-social , system poisons all . The men whose ingenuity and toll b » v « here made beauty and solidity to everywhere greet the eye—whose light arms here have wrought that which to be appreciated most be seen—these men , nature's nobility , are treated as outcast Pariahs by those who profit by their toil ; even on these railways , these " modern improvements " on the old system of travelling , your " third class passenger" is treated worse than the dog of the aristocrat , —aad why t g Because he is poor t
" How long by tyrants shall the earth be trod ? How long thy people trampled on , O God ? " I had hoped to have been able to have spent an hour in Derby , but finding , unless I took the first train , I could not leave until half-past seven , I had no alternative but to proceed . Accordingly at half-past feur I left Darby in the brain for Nottingham . I sat next a geatleman , whom , entering into conversation with , I fonnd much opposed to the railway system of travelling , On the ground that the " third class passengers " Were treated with negleefc aad Insult Finding ourselves agreed on this point , the conversation tamed upon the present state of the country and public affairs generally . I found my new acquaintance to be a bitter foe of the aristocracy and a stanch Corn Law repealer . The Chartists , of course , came in for their share of abuse for opposing the philanthropic schemes of the cheap bread
gentry , my acquaintance expressing hia conviction that the Chartist leaden were in the pay of the Tories . Taking no notice of this last absurdity , I set about showing him the impossibility of the middle classes carrying a repeal of tha Corn Laws unless aided by the working men . I justified the conduct of the Chartists in standing ont for political enfranchisement , and I natter myself made him half if not wholly a convert He admitted that the suffrage was the right of the people , but feared it W » uld only be obtained by bloodshed ; that I showed him was s vain fear ; that would the middle class honestly join the people , tbe Charter would be made the law without the shedding of a drop of blood , or the loss of a single life . He assented but doubted if the middle class * would join the people ; but added , that sure he was Reform must come , or Revolution would come . Having reached Nottingham we parted .
At eight o ' clock . I addressed a crowded meeting in tbe democratic chapel . I was most heartily received , and shall long remember with pleasure , the kindness with which I was treated by the Whig-hating Chartists of Nottingham . The cause is steadily progressing ; the worst obstacle is the extreme poverty of the working classes , but where men's hearts are right this difficulty maybe surmounted . Justice demands that I should here pay a passing compliment to that honest patriot James Sweet , who is regarded as the life and soul of the movement in Nottingham . He has the universal confidence of the people . Long may he enjoy what he so well deserves .
Thursday , left Nottingham per coach for MansSeld , on my way to Sutton j our road lying tbronflh a part of the far-famed Sherwood forest , the scene of the exploits of that immortal king of good fellows , " bold Robin Hood . " I was not aware until too late , that at one point of the road I was within a mile of Nawstead Abbey , had I been aware of this in due time , nought should have hindered me treading the " holy ground , " sacred to liberty's noblest bard . But on my next visit , I will atone for my past offence—nothing shall then prevent me worshipping at tbe poet's Bbrine .
Reaching Mansfield I found certain friends waiting my arrival ; in their company I proceeded to Sutton . At seven o ' clock I addressed a large and enthusiastic meeting in the Hope Inn , Mr . Joseph Alvey in the cbair ; I must do the men of Sutton the justioe of saying , that of all { he men I have mot with in England , they appear to me to be the most determined and hearty in the cause . They nobly supported the first Convention , and had all England been like Sutton , the Charter would then have been law . but « uch was not the case . Well , have the men of Sutton allowed this to damp their spirits , or destroy their energies f No ,- on the contrary they are now , as before , in the van of the democratic army , steadily extending their organisation , collecting funds , and procuring signatures te the petition . God speed them , is my prayer , and may the men of every other locality reading this—" go and do likewise . "
Friday , went to Mansfield ; I here found that our " old friend with anew face , " Mr . Murray , of Manchester , late of Liverpool , was to lecture the same evening on Com Law Repeal . " Mr . Murray ' s visit was very fortunate , aa the Chartists not having a room where they could hold a large meeting , had intended to have called tbe people together in the Market-place ; this owing to the state of the weather and extreme cold , was impossible , as such I agreed with the Council to summon our friends to hear Mr . Murray . They needed little summoning , and by halfpast seven , the room ( large and commodious ) was well filled -with Chartists and Corn Law Repealers . Mr . Hamilton proposed that Mr . Dntton , a Chartist , should take the chair , some person proposed another gentleman , whose mime I did not catch . A show of hands was taken , when by a sweeping majority the Chartist chairman was elected .
Mr . Murray then delivered his lecture , upon which f need say nothing . I then replied , and after speaking about half an hour , moved the adoption of the following resolution ;—" That -while this meeting consider tbe existing Corn Law to be unjust and oppressive , and one that ought to be erased fruui the statute book , thay are also of opinion that the s . aid law is but one of the numberless evils under which tho working classes lahour , the result of class-legislation ; and this meeting pledges itself to agitato for no measure of reform short of the People ' s Charter . " Mr . Murray moved the following crafty amendment : " That the Corn nnd Provision Laws are unjust and ought to be repealed . "
About fifty hnnds were held np for the amendment , and from two hundred and fifty to three hundred for the original motion . Three cheers for O'Connor , three for the Welsh martyrs , and three for the Charter and no surrender , closed the ^ triumph of the good men and true . Last Saturday ' s Star exhibited the awful distress prevalent in Mansfield—need I add that circumstances are doing what argument failed to effect—and th 9 " good old cause" moves on . The services of Mr . Dean Taylor , as county lecturer , have been productive of immense good . Mr . Tayler is warmly respected by tho Nottinghamshire Chartists , and his highly successful laboura will entitle him tv their esteem .
Saturday , I returned to Sheffield . One word with Mr . O'Connor . The Nottingham Chartists are most anxious to know when he will visit their good town . As one of the first places to rally round the banner of Radicalism at his call , five years ago—they think they should not , and I am sure they will not , be forgotten . George Julian Harnkv .

THE ENGLISH CHARTIST CIRCULAR . TO THE EDITOR OF TUE NORTHERN STAR . Sib . —It rejoices my soul to see another number of the Chartist Circular , which , from its tardy arrival this last week at this sink or cess pool of Toryism , I had begun to fear had gone to that bourn from which only the Immediate energy of our Chartist brethren can rescue it I do , however , solemnly trust that they will not suffer this real catastrophe to happen . I should regard the circumstance as a just and general misfortune—a deep and melancholy shade thrown over the otherwise bright path of political regeneration . ' Every working man in the whole breadth of the land should carry the Chartist Circular in his bosom , and read it to his dear wife and children at his meals . It is prinUd and composed for his beneSt , and should be worn next his heart t
I have pondered much on the , to me , solemn notice addressed "To the Chartists generally , " in No . 40 , warning thtm of the critical situation of the Circular , and do trust it will be responded to ina manner worthy of men united in the sacred cause of freedom . I do fervently trust that the Chartist brethren of the United Kingdom will carry it triumphantly through its present unassured course , and I have great satisfaction in stating that , on my reading the appeal referred to above , and tbe remarks connected with it , and the letter of our Chartist brother which precedes it , to the Committee of the Chartists here , they readily and unanimously resolved to adopt his suggestion , to take a dozen

copies weekly , for discretional and gratuitous distribution . Supposing , Mr . Editor , the National Charter Association to extend at this time over 250 towns , if each locality would agree te take a dozen copies for general use , this would call for 3 , 000 copies ; and if the promiscuous sate in the same towns were only eight copies in addition , this would make the demand to be 5 , 000 , that is , 850 multiplied by 20 , which I trust would prove a remunerating number ; hut if otherwise , 1 would recommend that at the end of the present volume or section , it were raised to a penny , which I am assured no real Chutist would object to .
Let us make a simultaneous national movement to place the Chartist Circular in a situation of prosperity and to afford its meritorious editor that satisfaction , in regard to its publication , which his labours and his outlay of capital justly entitle him to . Respectfully and sincerely yours , A CHARTIST . Liverpool , Monday , Nov . ISth , 1841 .

ATTACK UPON MR . LOWERY , THE CHARTIST MISSIONARY , AND MR . CHRISTOPHER COYNE , OF CAPEL-BTBEET , DUBLIN . TO TUB EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN STAR .
Sir , —Mr . Coyne called upon me and complained of having bis name included amongst the names of the party who made tbe brual attack npon Mr . Lowery , in Henry-street , in August , 1889 , and for which they received the marked approbation of the Lord Lieutenant and the thanks of Mr . O'Connell . He said that he was in the room when the attack was made upon Mr . Lowery , bat that he did his utmost to prevent it , and to obtain a hearing for Mr . Lowery , by whispering to those over whom he thought he hod influence , not to beat Mt . Lowaiy , but to hear him . The reason wby he did not speak out was , that he did not wish hia name to appear before the public at the time . He Bays he is a Chartist in principle , and is therefore desirous to relieve himself from the charge which appeared in th « Northern Star of the 13 th instant Patrick O'Hiqgins .

THE CROWN AND ANCHOR ADDRESS TO O'BRIEN . Weh&ve received , on this subject , a letter from Mr . Wat kins , which we think it right to publish , and which is the last we mean to publish on the matter . Mr . Watkins sayB : —
" TO TUB EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN STAR . w , —My friends in London have pressed me , very much against my » wn inclination , to notice several misrepresentations that have lately appeared in the Star . I am so accustomed to these things that they have no effect upon me ; but my friends say that they may take effect against me in quarters where the facts are not known . Well , then , in reference to the O'Brien address . I , as Secretary to bis Committee , in London , was appointed to draw up that address , which was adopted by the Committee , and became the address of the Committee . In my capacity of reporter to the Committee , I forwarded the address in an isolated form to the Star . How it came to be inserted in the report of the Crown and Anchor meeting , you ,
Mr . Editor , have already explained . It was not my business , but the business of the Reporter to the Star to report what took place at the Crown and Anchor ; in his absence , a friend did it for him it appears . I was appointed to read the address to Mr . O'Brien , and to present it to him , when , on reading it , I got to the passage " There never was & press , ic" Several individuals objected to it , upon which Mr . O'Brien rose to check me ; but as the general applause of the meeting overbore the individual objections , I proceeded to the end , mindless of tbe interruption that had taken place . The address was not put to the meeting , nor presented to Mr . O'Brien , therefore he could not , as Mr . Nagle is made to say , tear it to pieces . The address was a verbatim copy of the one adopted by tbe Committee .
** To every word in the objected passage of that address , I stand . Time nor circumstance has not yet allowed any press to represent the interests of working men in their fullest extent . Let the emphasis be laid where it was meant to be , and no honest mind will object to the passage . " A reflection has been cast on the O'Brien Committee for convening the Crown and Anchor meeting on the same evening that a benefit for Carrier was to take place . The Committee , as they were in duty bound to do , merely acted in accordance with O'Brien ' s instructions . Who himself fixed that evening , unknowing of Carrier ' s benefit ; and there was no time to apprize him of it Both places were filled ; those , therefore , who complain most must be fond of complaining .

I shall not pretend to give a description of my ride to Derby—enough that about a quarter to four o'clock we reached the station at Belper , nnd now I began to feel myself at home , the country was not new to me ; but though I had travelled the road several times between Derby and Belper , I could icsreely believe my senses when , after a few minutes' rapid whirl the well-remembered pleasant little village of Duffleld glided ( apparently ) by me , a few minutes more , and Derby "hove in sight .
