THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYR 1 ACUM . ' ¦ l Is a gentle stimulant and renovator of the impaired functions of life , and is exclusively directed to the cure of the Generative System , whether constitutional or acquired , loss of eexual power , and debility arising from Syphilitic disease ; and is calculated to afford decided relief to th ' pse who , by early indulgence in solitary habits , have weakened the powers of their system , and fallen into a state of chronic debility , " whioh the constitution is loft in a deplorable state , and that nervous mentality kept up which places the individua , in a statue of anxiety for the , remainder of life . The consequences arising from this dangerous practices , are not confined to its pure physical result , but branch to moral ouea ; leading the excited deviating mind into a fertile field of seducive error , — into agradual but total degradation of manhood—into a pernicious application of these inherent rights which nature wisely instituted for the preservation of her . species ; bringing on premature decripi ^ ude , and all the habitudes of old ago : —such a one carries with him the form and aspect of other men , but without the vigour andjenergy of that season which his early youth bade him hope to attain . How many men cease to bo men , or , at least , cease to enjoy manhood at thirty ! How many at eighteen receive the impression of the seeds of Syphilitic disease itself ? the consequences of which travel out of the ordinary traok of bjodily ailment , covering the frame with disgusting evidence of its ruthless nature , and impregnating the . wholesome stream of life with mortal poison ; conveying into families the seeds of disunion and unhappiness ; undermining domestic harmony ; and striking at the very soul of human intercourse . The fearfully abused powers of the humane Generative System require the most cautious preservation ; and the debility and disease resulting from early indiscretion demand , for the cure of those ' dreadful evils , that such medicine should be employed that is most certain to be successful . It is for these cases Messrs . Perry and Co ., particularly designed tbeir CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM which is intended to relieve those persons , who , by an immoderate indulgence ! of their passions , have ruined their constitutions ' , or in their way to the consummation of that deplorable state , are affected with any of those previous symptoms that betray its approach , as the various affections of the nervous system , obstinate gleets , excesses , irregularity , obstructions of certain evaouations , weakness , total impotency , barrenness , &c . As nothing can ] be better adapted to help and nourish the constitution , so there is . nothing more generally acknowledged to be peculiarly efficacious in all inward waatings , loss of appetite , indigestion , depression of spirits , trembling or shaking of the hands or limbs , obstinate coughs , shortness of breath , or consumptive habits . It possesses wonderful efficacy in all cases ] of syphilis , fits , head-ache , weakness , heaviness , and lowness of spirits , dimness of sight , confused th ' oughts , wandering of the mind , vapoura , and melancholy ; and all kinds of hysteric complaints are gradually removed by its use . And even where the disease of Sterility appears to have taken the firmest hold of the female constitution , the softening tonic qualities of the Cordial Balm of Syriacum will warm and parify the blood and juices , increase the animal spirits , invigorate and revive the whole animal machine , and remove the usual impediment to maturity .

Where saeh numbers assemble , the object ' cannot be a harmless one . I tery weliinow what that object Is ,
but the capitalist Ounks it is for tbe purpose of breaking the peace . I do not myself believe so . I think that so long as the agitators can bold the issue of those meetings in their hands—Inter )—they will be the last to risk their own safety .

As well might yon approach a match to gunpowder , and say , " Dont explode . * ' { Bear , hear . ) Bat I believe myself that those persons bare a Tery different object in view . I believe
that these meetings are part ol a Tart system of intimidation , for the purpose of shewing the power of the leaders of the Irish people over them , ! and of overawing the Govexnintiht . ( Hear . ) Profoundly ignorant are they of the GovErnmeat with -which they have to deal . ( Heat ) They shew UiemBelvea profonndly ignorant of my Noble Pjclend , ihe Noblg 3 > uke opposite . He is as little likely to be overawed by any of their macbinataons , thair addresses , or their meetings , as those agitators tbBmselTes are likely , with their ^> voted and desperate followers , to be overawed or made to swerve from their course by any conscientious scroplea or patriotic motives . There is no capitalist in this country who -will aena one farthing of money to a ceuntry -where there exists such an organizad system of
aiischief . These , my Lords , are the reasons in answer to my Noble FxienA ' s xemsika why I think capital has not been and will not yet be sentinto Ireland . I will say one word about agitation , sot only -with reference to repeal , but extending a little further . I see sow many who do not care about repeal ; but who care a great deal about fixity of tenure , which means confiscation of land , { hear , hear ) tbe destruction of property , the abrogation of all rights of property whatever ( hear , hear ); which means , turning tenant into landlord , and and Hie cultivator into owner { hear , hearj ; that is a popnlir doctrine , anil very likely te be ! well received , coming from those who have little property , to those who have none . ( Hear , and a laugh . } | That is very likely to make some way in Ireland ; and accordingly I
have heard there is something of preaching non-payment of rent and converting the landlord ' s Tent into repeal rent , and that that is begun to be felt already . Tbe law is strong enough to deal with it ; if sot , it ought to be , and I think it is . But do not let any one suppose that that is wholly an Irish doctrine . { Hear , hear . j Repeal is an Irish doctrine ; repeal will never cross the Channel . There we * only oneEnglish member , now no longer in Parliament , to support it ; and there will be so mere to support it in Parliament . But fixity of tenure , the destruction ef property , is sot Irish ; it is not local ; it is as likely to spread in England as in Ireland . { Hear , bear . ) I should say r rather more
likely ; and let all in England , as in -Ireland , beware how they allsw it to be introduced . { Hear , bear . ) I should not have said so mneh , -had X sot heard something said in the other house of Parliament , cominj ; from a certain quarter there , that fixliy of tenure , if a thing not to be attempted , was a subject for " consideration . ( Hear bear . ) It strikes at the root of f society { bear , hear )—of all government ; and if not put down with a arm hand and with a strong and unhesitating judgment , it will outstrip all the efforts ef all the enemies of the country , in working the ruin and degradation of this mighty empire . { Tbe noble Lord resumed his seat amidst considerable cheering . ) ' After a few -words from tbe Bui of Glen gall , the "talk" concluded .

HOUSE OF COMMONS—Tuesday , Aug . 8 . Upon tbe report of the supply , Mr . BtriiE recurred to tbe frauds in the Customs , -wliich be beUved tad bees to the extent of millions per uTmnm . The fault Uy in : the improper selection of Cemmissionen , who , instead of being chosen from a class of persons acquainted with the . business and capable of duly superintending it , -were appointed merely from interest . He called for the evidence lately taken upon this subject , contending that the Chancellor of the JSxebeqaer ought toiiarre muBpeadod tbe whole board ; and that ths danger of an taterferenca with the eourse of justice , which bad beep urged as an objection , was a trifiein comparison withrthe object to be attained by the production of this testimony . The
frauds had extended sot only to light goods , but to tea . tobacco , and other articles . In one case , cigars bad been passed : as marble . He . believedi the general opinion to be the tone one , -which was tiut the publication would have shown neglect on the part of persoub in high places , who might by proper vigilance have preveotedVthese frauds . Not only were the public cheated , bat the honest dealer . But indeed , while the present high duties were maintained , j there would slwayB be smuggling ; the only way to prevent it was to impose moderate duties , which Troalrl leave the smuggltr without temptation . The report itself admitted and affirmed this , though the general vieWB of its authors were not Tery favourable to free trade . He moved the address to the Crows for the production of the evidence appended to the report . ;
Mi . Pointer seconded tbe motion , and J > Ii . Williams supported it \ Us . GoULBUKU agreed that publication , -when the proper time for it should come , wcnld do great good ; but to publish now would be to defeat the prosecutions He vindicated the honour of the Commissioners of Customs , and the principle of their selectien , and observed , Xttab nothing conld be more painful ^ han the detection of the treachery committed by the subordinate officers , except the discovery that so many persons holding the high and honourable position of EBgiisb merchants , should have been found capable of corrupting those officers , to gain an unfair advantage over rival traders .

method . In about a quarter of an hour , however , Ihe pressure beoaioe so great , that ¦¦ . the / front doors were opened , atd the * j ) iaoe , wteo ^ wcialoalated to hold 1 , 500 , ( wasfilled to > yeiflov ? ing ; aion 8 iderabje nnmber not beiniR able to gain admission . On the motion of one of the tarnrouts , ^ p EUling , one of the Ghartistsj ^ bp was tried at lAnoaster , along ; vHth Feargos O ; Gonnor and others , was called to the ohair . * He opened the m&eting by Baying , that they wier * met together , on that occasion , to consider matters-of * he | greatest importance } he hopedthat thej had ! come there ia earnest' aid not in iest Althongh he ? himself was no spinner , yet he knew thiB much iaboat BpInnerB , that thefr wages were quite low enongh . Ha was of opinioa , that shoult
the men Bubmit to the reduction now offered other niMieM would do thei eanie as Mr . Buckley . He said , all eyeawere upon Ashton jetory district was taking cognizance of their movements ; and it was for ttat . meeting to say what should be done . At this period , Borne little diaturbance took place in conaeqnence of fonr or five policemen being seen makinff their way up tiie centjpeof the room . Thechairmai obserTed . lthat the " canaries '' ( that boing a nickname given ttf the police ) were only doing the bidding of their masters , and he hoped that they would take a seat bosideibimBelf ; that they might bear every thing correbtlyi The officers accepted the invitation , and th ' e hooting eeaied . As ' soon asbTder was restored , -the ohairmah read the bill catUing the meetin / f , and stated thai it would be as well if some of the men , who had turned out , would state to that meeting , and / ihrcugh the press to the world , what iheir real : grievances were . After waiting a Bhort
time , one of the spinners got up and stated , that tbe reduction pffefed waa 31 di , out of every 2 a . 3 id . which they earnedi For spinning twist , and 2 d . from every Is . 9 d . for ; weft ; those being the sums which they previously received for spinning 1 , 000 hanks ; he thought it was unjust , and ought not to be tolerated , especially when it was considered that a majority of the masters ] of the town were paying more . He stated , that ] if the reduction was submitted to , it would be from : 4 a . to 5 a . out of their weekly earnings . Another person said , that ^ be understood some allusion had been made to the Dokinfield Hall Mill , by Mr . Bucklev , that the spinners of thai mill were getting considerably less than his men , and he coold not afford : » o ; give more than other parties . He , as a spinner at tb > t place , begged to say that they had their wages raised , a few cays ago , 2 £ d per thousand hanks . :
One of the turn-puts said , the list which they were ; wishful to be paid by was of the masters' own making ; yet ] they were the fire * ( o break it . In his opinion , the ; present turn-out was a whole town's question , and ought to be so considered . * He said he could show , from the Manchester papers , that the masters were doing better now than they had been doing for the last twelve months . A general conversation here ensued as to what course should bo adopted by way of assisting the hands who had turned out . : One individual pointed out the necessity of subscribing for them weekly , which proposition was immediately opposed by the turn-outs themselves who stated , that it was not that kind of support they wanted ; they had learned by experience that ,
if they began to receive contributions , their places would soon be supplied by other hands , who were out of employment . It was their opinion that a single Btrlke would ; not do ; if any good must bo effected , ihere mut-t be a general strike throughout the whole town . —( Ttiisproposition wasjreoeived with deafening cheers . )—The following motion was then made"That we have a general strike throughout the town , should ; Mr . BueHey persist in making a reduotioa . " Theimotion was unanimously carried . A deputation was then appointed , to consist of one spmner from each of the various mills , to wait upon Mr . Buckley ; to ascertain what 6 tep& he intended to pursue . It was then arranged , that each spinner who was in work should subscribe sixpence each on
the Saturday evenine . to pay any expenses that might be inourred for printing , &c The meeting was then adjourned to Saiurdaj evening , on Thacker ' s ground , in order that ; the delegates might have an opportunity of stating what had been done during the day . On Saturday evening the adjourned meeting was held according to previous arrangement , and was addressed by Pilling , ( who again acted as chairman ) , Wolfenden , and several others , it was stated , that the delegates had waited upon Mr . Buckley , but be would have nothing to say to them . [ We understand , that be declined to receive them , on the ground , that a number of them were not mill hands , but shoemakers and other tradesj A motion was then made , that , the meeting should again adjourn to
Sunday erening , at half-past seven o'clock , when they would meet in Charlestown , and some arrangements should be entered into , and carried out on the Monday . The meeting , which was Tery numerous , then quietly separated , On Sunday evening the turn-outs again assembled near to the Charlestown Chapel , when Robert Lees , better known as " General Lees , " one of the fifty-eight tried at Lancaster , was appointed chairman , and opened the meeting by giving out a hymn , &c . At this meeting it wad arranged that , shop meetings should bs held all over the town , and that each meeting ] should communicate with the sitting committee ; : after which the meeting , which was considered to consist of from 4 , 000 to 5 , 000 persons , termined . '
A delegate meeting was holden on Monday night , at the house of Mr . Timothy Broadbent , the White Hart Inn , Park-street . We understand that of thirty-six mills , the operatives of which had been requested to send delegates to this meeting , no fewer than thirty-four were represented si it . The two bodies not sending representatives were the operatives in the employ of Mr . Chadwiok , of Throstle Neat , bulybridge , and those of Mr . Jonathan Andrew , of Dunkihfield . Amongst the delegates were Richard Pilling , —( the man whose defence at Lancaster , ^ at the lost assizes , excited much Attention and some commiseration : at the time , which was expressed both by the attorney-general
in his-reply and the learned judge ) , and "General Lees , " another of the CharliBts then tried andaoqaitted . —The meeting came to . the unanimous determination that ; there should be a general turn-out of the spinners , ! if Mr . James Buckley did not withdraw the redaction he was alleged to be seeking . They also agreed to draw up a list and to require all the masters to agree to it . —Mr . Robert Newton , deputy constable of Ashton , was present till about midnight , when he left . We believe , however , that the chairman ( whose name we have not heard ) and a few of the delegates remained assembled till about two o'clock in the morning , and the probability is , that they were engaged in . drawing up a list .
; Tuesda y ThiB morning placards , of which the following is a copy , were sent to the various mills and mill-owners , and in the course of the day were placed in various shop windows in the town : —
To the Motto- Manufacturers of Ashton and its Vitsiniiy . GENTLEMEN , —We , the Operative Cotton Spinners in your employ , address you , on this occasion , in a spirit of conciliation . We are aware that a number of you are paying considerably lower for your spinning , than others in the town , and we are desirous of being paid by the following list , which we consider is nothing but a fair and impartial one . We Are sorry that a reduction should have been offered to some part of our brunch at a time when there was not tbe least necessity for the same , and we hope that the redaction offered maybe averted , and that the calamitous consequences of August last may not be repeated on the present occasion . The following list is nothing but justj we aBk for nothing more , and we hope , as some of you ate paying the prices asked , that you will at once accede to the request of tUe ; Operative Cotton SpinnerB of Ashton and its vicinity .

A publicjmeeting will be held on tbe vacant ground , near Thacbert fonndry , on Tnesday evening , Augru 8 th , 1843 , at half-past seven o ' clock , to hear the result of the delegates . Fail not to attend . Abont a quarter after nine o'olock this ( Tuesday ) morning , gome weavers in the employ of Mr . James Buckley , went to him and complained that they could not weave up the weft , which—as biSBpinners had Btopped-T-hc had purchased in Manchester , in ' order to leep the weavers employed ^ alleging that this weft was of bad quality . Believing thiB to be a mere pretext on tho part of the weaTera —( who , it is
said , haTa been called upon by the spinners to aid them , in return , as it is alleged , for the spinuerB having aided the weavers in some : former turn-out ) —Mr . Buckley directed the engine to be stopped , and all the weavers then left the . mill . Iatheatcernoon they aisembled together ' , with the spinners and others , and proceeded to Mr . Kenwonhy's mill , and succeeded in igettiug out a part of theband& ( wea 7 ers ); but the remainder were prevented leaving the mill , by the doors being fastened . The tnrn-suts thus increased in immbers then proceeded to thomiil of Messrs . Bayier , whioh is nearly opposite that of Mr . Kenworlhy , and shouted , on which the greater part

if not the whole of Mosera . Rayner ' s weavers immediately left Work and joined them . The body of turu-outa then prooeoded to the mill of Mr . ^ eter , Platl , in Old-Btroet , where they shouted ; but they werenot joined by any of the hands from that mill . The mob then went to the mill of Mr . M ^ ilior in the same street , whero a number of the most aotive of thein , chiefly lada and youns ; meu of seventeen or eighteen , proceeded to [ close the window shutters off-ltho lower rooms of > the mil ) , next the street . One of ihe Messrs . Mellor jjastantly went put , and Mrl Robert Newton being , fortunately iu the neighbourhood with a number of the police , weut in amongst the turn-outs ; this had the effect of causing them to Boparate and disperse in different directions .
We ; have not heard that jthey went to any other mill aftor this time , which : was a little before three o'clock . Lest any violence should be attempted , there being only a company of the 8 th Foot in Ashton —( at present stationed in the Town Hall ) , —information of these proceedings was sent to Manchester , and ) Major Hartley , commanding the 8 th Regiment , whose head quarters are ? in Manchester , proceeded to Aahton at four o'clock this afternoon . During the afternoon , the police were stationed in tbe streets , to prevent any parties from being intimidated . We have not heard of any acts of violonce being attempted , and all was quiet when the last train leftittthe evening ) From enquiries we made last evenina in Ashton
we . learned that a belief existed in many quarters , that * the turn-out would become general throughout Ashton , this ( Wednesday ) morning . On the other hand , several well-informed persons were of opinion tbat | the prices paid by many of the principal firms ditferedin bo slight a degree from those in the men's list , ! that some arrangement would be made . It appeared to be admitted on all hands , that the turnout , ' even if it became general , could not be of long duration . We understand that on Monday evening the bands of Mr . Mellor gavo notice that unless the lull rates were given they should turn out on Wednesday morning . We are told that amongst other firms Mr . Mason , who , is said to be giving as high ; wages as any employer in Ashton , Mr . Abel
Buckley and Mr . Mellor are giving prices equivalent to those in the men's list , and agree to accept that Hat . I Mr . Mellor states that , having taken the average earnings of forty-two spinners for some time pas i he finds that average to be 27 s . 6 d . per week . His hands are by no means desirouMO turn out ; but they say that , if they were to continue working , and Mr . James Buckley ' s hands to remain out , be would soon | fill his mill with fre ^ b . hands , as there are so many wanting employment ; and , therefore , unless there is a general turn-out , it ivould be perfectly useless for the hands of one mill to contend against a siiiglo employer . Unless ,, therefore , all the mills turnjout this day ( Wednesday ) , they declare tfieir
intention to continue at work at the present rate of wages . Mr . Peter Platt states that he is giving the list prices , and that he hsid received no notification fromlhis hands np to last evening of any intention to quit their work . Indeed , it is said , that only a few of the smaller manufacturers are paying the low prices , and this is supposed to furnish ground for the lelief that the turn-out will not become general ; or if so , that it will not ; last long—the difference between present prices and those proposed by the operatives being generally speaking so small as regards the great majority of the manufacturers , that ) } it seems to offer every facility for an amicable arrangement .
It is not very clear , how that which in the origin Was ! a turn-out of the spinners only , should bare been } so strenuously supported by the weavers , who now appear the more determined of the twt branches of mill hands in their resistance . We have heard this accounted for b y the statement , that the weavers are desirous to obtain tho prices paid them before the last reduction made in March , 1842 ; but if this besoi we fear , that so far as regards this class of mill-operatives , tho dispute may not be so easily Beetled , asa return to the prices paid prior to March , 1842 , 1 would place their wges considerably above tbe rates paid throughout ! the whole of the country .
At present , tho Ashton prices for weaving are as high as those paid throughout tho county , wherever power-looms are used . The rate of wages to tho Ashton Bpinners was also ; fixed by the masters' list of March , 1842 , which was then agreed to by the operatives ; and whioh , it * is alleged , has been departed from by some four or fire firms , thus leading to tho results we have noticed . The Chartists . —We understand , that on Sunday evening , the Ashton Chartists had a meeting in their j room , at Charlealown , when they came to a resolution , that -they would not mix themselves up with this movement in any way ; so that it should be left perfectly free from all political complexion or character . v

BIRMINGHAM . —On Sunday morning last , Mr . Mason held his usual meeting at Duddeston Row . It was a splendid assembly , numerous , attentive , and
enthusiastic . Several names were enrolled . Thera is every prospect of the cause soon resuming its just and exalted position' in the scale of political power . ' I ( OnjTdesdav Evening last , a moat excellent and numerous meeting was holden at the Hail of Science , to heir Mr . Mason ' s usual weekly lecture , and to elect a General Council to promote tho Organization , and watch the movements of the Attwoodite New Movers . The following friends of the cause were each put separately , and carried unanimously : —Mr . A . Fussell , Mr . J . Follows , Mr . D . Potts , Mr .
Welsford , jMr . Cowhouse , Mr . Daviea , Mr . Mayitty , Mr . Williams , and Mr . Aloqoki At the conclusion of the lecture , Mr * Mason observed— "The Journal of Saturday has placed the rumours of these few weeks beyond the possibility of doubt . Mr . Attwood has declared his intention of again entering upon a , New Movement , the objects of which he deblares will unite jail classes : his plans to be submitted in the course of a few days . Let us once ascertain what this ) miraculous plan ie , and then we shall move . ( Cheers . ) If it does not mean full and ample justioe —if it does not mean equal representation to the enslaved millions with any and every class in society ; if it does not mean equal legal protection , labour as capital—( cheers)—then down with it—( loud cheers )! We shall not yet , however , pronounce our opinion
on plans we have not yet seen . Let us act ration ally . ! No condemnation until we have fairly judged . Rumour says it is merely , to oust ministers . But let me tell you , my friends , no ministry dare propose measures that would confer substantial relief under the present constitution of government ; that is , provided they had the disposition , whioh they have not— £ hear , hear ) . What ] good would it then be to us to oust one humbug ministry and put in another humbug batch of ministerial tyrants t No , no ; down with the system I The whole Charter , and nothing less' than the Charter—( loud cheers ) . So soon as we learn what is meant , the Council will be at its post- |( hear , heat)—and ah address will be issued" — oheerB ) . Mr . Masou then stated that the subject of hi ? next week ' s lecture would be—The coming crisis .
I « EEDS , —Mr . Christopher Doyle , of MaBchester , delivered leotarcB ou Sunday &ad Monday last . The room iwas crowded on each . occasion . The lecture upon Repeal , on Monday nigtu , was a masterpiece ; it told well . A good many of our Irish brethren were present , and evinced their aan ' dfaouon by repeated applause . Mr . Doyle dwelt upou the attompt of certain parties to cau > e a disunion betwixt the English Chartists and the Irish Repealers , and he called upon his Irish brethren to pay no attention to thesejlibeliers of the great body of tho working men of thfe country , but to jmise and act for themselves . The visit ot Mr . Doyle has done great good to the Chartist cause in this town .
Sotjth London Hall op Science , ( late Rotunda . ) —On ] Tuesday evening last , the members met as usual , Mr . Ross in the ohair . The minutes of the previous , meeting were read and confirmed . A discussion ensued upon the address from , the Metropolitan Delegates , in whioh M yers , Thorp , Buckman , ! and Andrews took a part . It was resolved , " That it is the opinion of this locality , Birmingham is tho most proper place for the Conference to be holden , and that it should meet as early as possible in September . " Mr . Martin then gave a powerful lecture upon the evils of aristooratical influence ;" after ; whioh it was aitnounced that Mr . Bolwell would lecture next Tuesday evemng , on the life and character of Robert Enomett . Mf .

Roberts , solicitor , from t Bath , Thomas Wheeler , and Mr . M'Grath , of London , were nominated as fit and proper persons to lepresent London in the Conference to be holden in Birmingham . Somebs Town Locality . —Ori Sunday last Mr . Farrai' lectured . The drift of his lecture was to shew ] that from the present representative system , or its creatures , the people had nothing to hope ; that -the principles of the Charter could alone work out the ealvation of the country , and secure it from the ruin whioh appears inevitable ; that its course cannot be arrested , unless by securing a House of Commons commensurate [ with the mind , wishes , wants , and happiness of f $ whole people .
Baofobs .--At a meeting of the Chartist 3 of this locality held on Tuesday evening , Augustlst , the following resolutions were unanimously agreed to"Thatwe consider it essentially nepessavy that a General Conference be holden as soon as convenient ; and we are of opinion that the 5 th of September will be the most suitable time ; We also think Nottingham would be the * most central place of meeting .

HOUSE OF COMMONS . —Wednesday . The adjourned debate on the Irish Church was resumed by , f Mr . Trelawney , who advised the House to take into its deliberate consideration , that they must either abolish the ; Established Church in Ireland , or submit to the alternative of civil war . . Sir R . H , iNaqs followed , criticising Mr . Ward ' s plan for redistributing the revenues of the Irish establishment . The member for Sheffield , though belonging to the ] established Church in England , would coolly rob { the sister Church of 17 s . 6 d . out of every pound sterling of her income—would put a halter round her neck , with the other end of the rope in the hands of her bitterest enemiesand drag her to
, dishonour and destruction . The Earl of Listow el warmly and emphatically condemned the past policy of England towards Ireland , the blame of . which he did not wish to throw on any existing party , bus which now required to be dealt with vigorously and impartially , if we wished to retain the affections of the peoplo , or to preserve the uuion . Lord Bernard { contended for the apoatolicity of the Church of Eng l and in Ireland , which he supported , not because it was the Church , of the majority of the empire , ' but because it was essential to the welfare of a Protestant state to maintain the ascendancy of the Protestant Church . Mr . Cocrrane said , that the maintenance of tbe Union was involved in that of the Churoh .
Mr . ViLLiEaa 3 tuart contended that the question of the Established Church in Ireland was uot one of religion bni of property—not of faith bat of money . j Mr . Hardy , considering that the primary function of tbe established Churoh in Ireland was to preach the Gospel , defended it on scriptural grounds . While he was Bpeaking . notice was taken that there werenot forty members present , which proving to be the case , the House adjourned at eight o'clooft . Thuhsdaf , Aug . 3 . A long conversation ensued on the " counting out " of the House the night before , when it appeared that the cause was the \ non-attendance of the " liberal " English and Irish Members . A conversation also ensued or the Scotch Church Bill , and then somo unimportant business followed .

THE EROME ACCIDENT . We are happy to hear that the number injured by the late accident was not so many as at first supposed . Mr . Bolwell went to Frome on Monday , for the purpose of procuring a correct account of the injuries sustained , and ascertaining the amount of damage done . \ The following he has found to bo the injuries sustained : — Sarah Cabbie , aged 15 , broken thigh , and injury in the back . Her parents have eleven children , and are without work . I One man severely injured mthp head and face . - Three other men , and one v ^ ornan , slightly injured . J . ¦ " - * : The amount of damage is estimated at £ 7 .
The friends at Frome are naturally anxious to render the suffering parties some little assistance . It is a tremendoust heavy visitation upon the poor unwillingly idle family of eleven children I They wish to render all tho relief they can to the poor sufferers ; and thus soothe , in some measure , the misfortune that has fallen upon them . To effect this they need the } aid of their Chartist brethren throughout the country . They are but few , and poor , themselves ; and , therefore , call for that assistance from others they would gladly render themselves had they the means . Mr . Boltvell , of ] Galloway-buildings , Bath , will receive BubsonpUouB , and duly report the same .

Leeds Woollen Markets . —The demand which we noticed in our last , for manufactured goods , still continues , and both on Saturday and Tuesday last , a much larger share of business was done at both the Cloth Hails . In the fine descriptions , however , the trade is dull , and the demand seems to be chiefly for low-priced cloths , with a few tweeds , plaids , &c . — WooL—The call for the finer descriptions is slow ; but there is much doing in noils and low priced wools . Leeds Cobn Market , Tuesday , Aug . 5 . —There has been a very large supply of Wheat to this day ' s market . The mil / ers haying purchased freely of late ; there has been very little business doing td-day , and Wheat has been 2 s to 3 s per qr . lower . " Oats and Beans very heavy sale and not much doing . The weather was showery up to Saturday evening , since finer .
York Corn Market , Saturdat Aug . 5 . —We have had variable weather since our last report , Thursday and yesterday being very wet , to-day more favourable . The supply of Grain is not so large as at the last two markets . For Wheat the sale is very slow , and rather lower rates are submitted to , but our farmers are unwilling sellers at the decline .
