    ( T'STABLISIIEp in Leeds in 1837 , and since then the JCi leading Provincial Journal in the Kingdom , is now published at No . 3 J 0 , Strand , London : . The object of the Proprietor in establishing the Northern Star was to furnish a fearless and faithful organ for tlie representation of the Labouring Classes , whose interests ( rom . Utao immemorial luwo been shamelessly neglected . The removal of the Star to London has enabled its conductors to supply the reader with the latest intelligence , as well as the most interesting news ; in consequence of which its number of readers have materially increased in the Metropolis , and its country circulation can be squalled by few , even the most extensively circulated Metropolitan newspapers . From the extensive circulation of the Northern Star , together with the fact that it is read by all classes of society as the organ of the movement party , Advertisers will find it to be a medium of communication with the public at large worth notice . Books and Publications for review must bo addressed ( post paid ) to the Editor , 340 , Strand , London . Adveriscments and orders for papers to bo addressed to Peargus O'Connor , 340 , Strand , where all communications will be punctually attended to . The following extract from the Newspaper Stamp Returns for October , November , aud December , 1813 ( siuee which no returns have been made ) , show that tho Northern Star is far at the head of many old-established London Weekly Journals : — NORTIBEKN STAK 117 , 000 Rews of the World .. 8 G . 00 O United Service G ; v-Eecord 83 /) 00 zctte 19 , 500 Bxnmincr 71 , 000 Patriot co . ooo Mritannia 60 , 000 Spectator .. .. u 48 , 000 Tark-lane Express .. 54 , 900 Era 41 , 000 Oublet 45 , 000 John Bull 39 , 000 Abserver 41 , 000 .

CHAMBERS' PHILOSOPHY REFUTED ; Just published Price Fourpence ( forming a Pamphlet of 50 pages demy 8 \ o ., in a stiff wrapper ) , THE THIRD EDITION OF A FULL and COMPLETE REFUTATION of the PHILOSOPHY contained in a TRACT recently published by the MESSRS . CHAMBERS , of Edinburgh , entitled the " Employer and Employed , " This valuable little work contains the most complete defence of ihe demands of the Working Classes for their fair share of the enormous wealth created by Machinery , as well as a justification of Trades Unions . The numerous appeals that have been made to Mr . O'Connor from nearly every part of the kingdom for tho publication , En pamphlet form , of those Dialogues that have recently appeared in the Star , have determined him to gratify what appears to be the almost uuauimous wish of tlie Labouring Classes , "The Employer and the Emnloyod , " # # byl ' eargus ' O ' Connor , * * beats anything even of its author ' s . —jEo'Oiwsusf .

    Complete in one Vol ., neatly Bound in Cloth , A PRACTICAL 'WORK . ON SMALL FARMS . Price Two Shillings and Sixpence . BY PEAR&BS O ' CONNOR , ' ESQ . The desire of tho author has been to furnish , a valuable compendium at such a price as would enable every working man to-become possessed of it . It contains all the practical instructions , together with Plates , describing Farm-house , Offices , Tank , Farm-yard , « Ssc . ; with particular information requisite foi carrying out all the operations . N . B . — Tho above work may still be procured innum bers , price 6 iK each . " I have ,, within the last few months , visited every par of France , and I declare that I have seen more misery in one street in Dublin than in all France ; the people are well clr . u , well fea , and merry ; they are all employed on Smali Farms of their own , or on equitable takings !"Vidi Lord Otoncm-rj ' s Letter b \ Morning Chronicle , Oct . Sftt 1843 . Those persons desirous of buttering their condition and of becoming "Independent Labourers , " b y entering the 'Productive-labour" Mavket , will do well to read "A Practical Work on Small Farms , " by Peakgus O'Connor Esq . It contains much useful information , invaluable to the parties for whom it was written ; and Old Farmers wUl find many useful lessons in the new system Of hUSbanuiy , which they have yet to learn . Tho work displays great practical knowledge , and is writton so that any one who reads may understand . Mr . O'Connor seems net to have used either the old or ' new nomenclature' in this work ; he has not buried his meaning in Chemical tfjcllllisalUies , which very few understand , but which most writers on agriculture secnj so desirous of using . Perhaps they do not understand the practice of Fayming so well as ; he theory ; and , therefore , mystify that wluch they cannot explain , by some long chemical term , which the plain reader may ^» ov « r Rs a « Mr 4 m- % " hav 4 V > yXo , , ¦ 1 ; ¦ i i > t i 1

    o at p in ¦ us ( i as for the Jlr this as to in iSiu c " t of ga on ab it - , nounce , and harder to understand when it is pronounced . ' The reader will find that Mr . O'Connor has avoided all those hard names , and suited the language to the toiling labourer , whose college is generally the workshop , or at . best , the Sunday School . Though the work i * written for hoklcML of Small Farms , yet no Allotment Tenant ought toTe without it ; the valuable information it contains respecting tilling and cropping is alike useful to all . " — Extract from a Farmers Z-ctUr . " This really useful little volume ought to be in the hands o £ every one at all connected with agricultural pursuits . "—Lloyd ' s Weekly London Newspaper : " Although wo foul no desire , in the language of the proud Peruvian , in contemplating what we hope to rejoice in , the contentment , prosperity , and comfort of our fellow men , to exclaim— " This , this is my work ; " nor is our object , as Mr . O'Connor declares his to be , " that each man who is willing to work may be independent of every oHier man in tlie world for liis daily ln-eud , " yet we can with much pleasure recognise in the book before us a powerful instrument for aiding in tlovcloping in man a wich ln ' s liev destiny than he has hitherto attained . "Mr O'Connor shews clearly , what will soon be apparent to all who veiled deeply , that we are not left without the nKaris of obtaining not only all tluit is physically l'otiuisUa for man ' s progress , but also that we may readily prodicu what is apparently desirable ; for none who carefully psruse this work can doubt that a system of small farms , held hy active and industrious labourers , -would amp ] return , in exchange for healthful exertion , far more than is requisite to preserve physical strength , '' llealso shows thatsoinetliingmore than this is requisite to ensure happiness , for he says in page 121 , " I feel convinced that man can place no reliance whatever upon his follow man , or a community of men , when circumstances operate upon his or their minds , the influence and effect of which would be stronger than any abstract notions of justice . For instance , if a community of la- , bouriug rauu purchase a quantity land , and hire labour for its cultivation , h <~ vcver just their intentions and : pure their motives , they will nevovtUeless feel themselves justified in raising the price of tlie land , according to the . improved value conferred upon it by the labour of the hired workman . This power of steadily trenching upon , the rights of others is . one of tho greatest disadvantage , against which the labourer has to contend ; and thosj hired by a community , at the end of twenty years would 1 be in no bettor condition than they wore at starting , while J the community of proprietors would have increased the value of their properly twenty-fo ' d ; that is , they would have robbed those labourers , by whose industry the value ivas increased , of nineteen shillings in the pound . " "These remarks are powerful arguments in the sphere i in which they avo written , and if csamined in their rcla- j tion to the universal , they confirm the testimony tlia " The earth is the Lord's , and all that therein is ; 1 he round world and they that dwell therein ; " for , after partaking freely of what is good for each order of creation , any self-appropriation , by whatever parties in- dulged in , is from evil , and will produce its consequence , namely , vice , crime , and misery . ] ' We can strongly recommend Mr . O'Connor ' s work to 1 our readers , containing a great amount of practical infor- j niation on agriculture , which should be most popularly ( diffused . "—Concordtum Gazelle .

They are divested , therefore , of all those J ., hair-breadth distinctions and unnecessary subdivisions in Analogy , which , if at all useful , can only bo useful to fo- ^ reigncrs . The science of Grammar is disentangled in tl them from the folds of mysticism which have so long en- ai shrouded it . The absurd and unmeaning technicalities st which pervade all other works on Grammar areexchanged c < for terms which have a de / iiiito and precise meaning , il- . lustrative of the things they represent , Tho Tarts of jj Speech are arranged on an entirclyncwpriiiciple , founded fe on . a jMlosophkal consideration of the nature of Ian- L guage . TI 12 necessary divisions and subdivisions are o ! rationally accounted for , and the principles of Universal tl Grammar demonstrated so fully that the meanest caua- p city may understand them as clearly as it understands ^ that two and two make four . g In Syntax , the formation of the English Language is ex- w clusively consulted , without any unnecessary reference to o other languages . A majority of tha numerous llules *' given in most Grammars nre shewn to ue little bettor than ji a heap of senseless tautology .

"—Sisltop Lowth . " Mr . Hill is evidently an original thinker . He attacks ] with ability and success , the existing system of English 1 j Grammar , and points out the absurdities with which it i » , encumbered . Justly condemning the too frequent prac- [ tice of making pupils commit portions of Grammar to me- x mory a Btasks , he maintains that the only proper way to j tko memory is through the understanding It is , but justice to him to say that , in a few pages , he gives a ; move clear ar . d comprehensive view of Hie structure of ^ the English language than can be found in some very elaborate works . " —Literary Gazette . "Mr . Hill has discharged his task with considerable ability and no person can peruse his books with any- 1 thing like attention , without obtaining a clear aud sum- : cient estimate ofthe construction aud laws of his vermi- ( culur tongue .

" — - The method he has adopted to convey his lessons is the least repulsive to a learner tliat we have yet seen , not excepting that of Mr .

Exteaokbisaet Ci 5 E . —Henry Joseph SiU&rby , a youth of seventeen years of age , apprentice to ajwinterintliccity , was brougbt oefore Mr . Cottingham cliarsed on suspicion with being the writer of anonymous letters , addressed to several families residing in the "borough of Southwarls , threatening thelives of theparties , and also inclosing paison for the purpose of destrojing 41 » em . Last week the churchwardens of St , George ' s parish , S-jnthwarfc , made an application at this court tpon the sabject , and amongst others produced an anonymous letter addressed to Mr . Strud , tue parish clerk , the writer threatening to set Sre to the church if ho did not announce to the congregation on Sunday some Tile insinuations against the character of a 3 Irs . Sprics

In consequence of the application to the magistrate , the officers of the detective police have been engaged in the discovery of the affair , and the result of their inquiries ivas the apprehension of the prisoner . The prisoner is xather a decent-looking lad , and on being placed at the Inr he evinced no fear or alarm . He was accompanied to the court by his father , who is a tradesman in Whitestreet , nearly opposite to the residence of one of the persons to whom a letter containing poison had been recently sent . Sergeant Kendall , of the detective police , made a statement to the effect that a memorial was transmitted to Sir James Graham some time ago , which was af ter--ivaras placed in the hands of the commissioners of police , aild that it contained a representation of the state of alarm into which the memorialist and his family had been duuwu in consequence of the threats of an anonymous water . -Jhe uocumen ^ which was signed by a brother

    — Of the accused , on being placed in the bands of the detective officers , was found to bear a strong resemblance to the writing in the anonymous letters , and this fact led to further inquiries , in the course of which some writiug of the prisoner ' s wa 3 procured , which bore such a similarity to the offensive epistles as to create a very strong belief that he was the writer of tbem . On a recent occasion it was also ascertained that a letter had been posted in the Minories , and that the prisoner was seen near the spot at that place at the time at which it was dropped in the letter-box . Several anonymous letters were handed to the magistrate , and amongst them one by Mr . Samuel Cloater , addressed to his daughter , containing about three quarters of an ounce of poison , and ran thus : ¦—" Sept . 5 , 1 S 43 . "My dear Elizabeth—If you mix the white powder I have enclosed in the letter , you will find it very delicious . It has come from Prauce . I shall call in a few days . Mind you mix the powder directly you receive it , and you will find that it has the flavour of the melon . "

    3 ir . Cottiiigham compared the writing oftlie note with a specimen of the prisoner's hand-writing recently procured , and remarked that the resemblance was certainly very strong . Evidence was here adduced that the powder contained in the letter had since been analysed , and was found to be osaiic acid . Another letter was read by iLe magistrate addressed to a Miss Elizabeth Spriggs , describing that the writer of it was aware that exertions were made for a discovery ; that he was aware the officers were in search of him , and had seen them on the precediu s lit making inquiries at Mrs . , Spriggs ' s , but that he would foil them in all their attempts . That he was aware a reward of £ 10 Imd been offered to discover the writtr , but that if it was £ 1 , 000 it would not have the desired effect . The writer then expresses his determination not to stop until he has sacrificed some of the in- !

    habitants of the parish , whose names he inserted , for their officiousness in attempting to discover the author of tlie letters . Another note was also produced , the writer vowing vengeance against 3 Ir . Cloater , for preventing his daughter from taking the powder . A copy of the prisoner's hand-writing , with the words " Miss Elizabeth Sprlggs , " written that morning , was compared with the superscription on the above letter , and was found to be a very close resemblance . Several anonymous letters were produced which had been written to Sir . Kemhle , a liop merchant , ofa threatening nature , and one of them , containing poison , was addressed to his wife while he was in the country . The letter purported to be from a clerk in Mr . Kemble's employ , describing that his employer had directed him to cue-lose Jfrs . KcmUe some powders of a very efficacious description , which he recommended her to take as soon as possible , and that they would benefit

    her heaith . The chief part of tlie letters had been dropped in 3 Ir . Kemble ' s own letter box , until the writer finding a watch was kept there , then regularly posted them . Fortunately Mr . Kemble did not adopt the advice contained in the note , and other threatening letters were sent , when the infamous writer found his plan frustrated . Jfr . Bowling , chemist and drviggist , of Kent-street , produced some threatening epistles which he also received , in consequence of his being one of the parishioners who had recommended a reward of £ 40 for the discovery of the writer . The language in the letters was of a most infamous description , Mr . Cottiiigham asked the prisoner whether he wished to say anything at the present stage of tlie inquiry , and his reply was that he did not wish to make any statement at present . Mr . Cottiiigham Enid that lie should remand the prisoner until Monday , but that he had no objection to accept of two sureties of £ 100 each for his appearance on that day .

    KTHAMES . TpesdaT . —ExTBAor . DisAnx Chakce op Hape Samuel Ilart , a grave-looking man , 50 years old , and nearly bald-headed , was brought before Mr . Ballantine , charged with forcibly violating the person of Mary Ann Dodd , his wife ' s sister , aged IS years . Mr . Pelham stated the case for the prosecution . He said this was a most painful and extraordinary case . The prisoner was a paiuter and glazier , and lived in Greenwood-street , Jllleend . The girl whom he was charged with abusing was a cripple , awl had been afflicted with a- disease of the hip from the time of her birth ; and one of her legs being shorter than the other , she could not walk without the assistance of a crutch . When she lay down she could not rise again without a great effort , unless she was assisted . Some time ago the girl went to the house of

    her sister , the prisoner ' s second wife , as a sort of domestic and to do needle work . On the night of Tuesday , the 16 th ult , tlie prisoner came home With his Wife at a Very late hcur . The girl was sitting up for them and let them in , andthjy all went up stairs to their bed rooms at the same timj . The girl's bedroom was on the same floor , and adjoined the prisoner ' s bedroom . She slept with the prisoner ' s three children . At daybreak , on the morninjj of the 17 th , the girl was awoke by the prisoner , who had obtained admission to her bed , and he then committed the oft ' enee laid to his charge . Tlie girl screamed loudly for help , indeed as loud as she was able , and the children awoke and began crying . The prisoner immediately left her and returned to his own room . His VfifC ) it appeared , slept so soundly that she did not hear the screams of her sister , and was not made acquainted with the affair

    until several days afterwards . The girl was so overcome with shame and fear that she made no communication to her sister in the house or to any one else , until Sunday last , when she informed another sister and her father that the prisoner had abused her , and begged of them to obtain redress . Her father promised that he would attend to her wishes , but he had not sought redress for his injured daughter , and took no ateps in the matter at all . Under these circumstances the sister had consulted him ( Mr . 1 ' elham ) , and he advised that the man should be immediately given into custody . —Mary Ann Dodd was then sworn . Iler testimony confirmed the statement of her solicitor . She added that the prisoner had since

    made imnreper advances towards her , which , she had resisted . The prisoner , with much animation , said the charge was false , and . trumped up against him by the prosecutrix and her sister who had given evidence . He was a respectable and a moral man , and had never any idea of committing the offence laid to his charge , Tlie girl had robbed him to a great extent , though he had supported and cherished her , and her sister Caroline was a common prostitute , who formerly walked Bishopsgate . He begged of the magistrate to allow liira to put iu bail and obtain professional advice , for he was an innocent man . The prisoner was remanded , but admitted to bail , himself in £ Si ) , and two sureties in £ 10 each .

    A Misceeast . — The Hdjiasiti of the Tooe . — William Hazle , an ill-tempered though well-dressed fellow , residing at 11 , Portman-place , Stepney , Mas charged with cruelly maltreating Susannah , his wife . — The complainant , a delicata interesting young woman , stated that she had been four years married to the prisoner , aud during the whole of the period he had treated her with , most unrelenting cruelty , not from any sudden excitement , but calmly and deliberately . On Sunday week he got a piece of rope , which he made up in the form of a whip , and on the same evening he took the screws from the hinges of the door , which he again temporarily fastened up with nails . About four o ' clock next morning he burst in the door , and beat her cruelly with the rope whieh he had prepared . On another occasion she save him in charge for beating her with a thick

    bamboo cane , which he split to pieces on her person , but on his promising amendment before the inspector the charge was not pressed . On Wednesday last he came home in ill humour , and d—d the infant who was crawling on the ground . She told him not to do so , as his curses would fall upon himself , when he followed her into tlie kitchen , drew her along by the hair of the head , and gave her several blows aud kicks which cut and marked her severely . He net er let her see the colour of bis money , but left her and her children to star 7 e , so as that they were compelled to live on the casual bounty of the neighbours . Anne l ' earson , a poor woman living in a house to the rear of the prisoner's , proved that for the last three months , during which she lived in the place , the prisoner treated his wife with unremitting cruelty . Oil the previous Wednesday she showed witness her legs ,

    which were all over bruises , and in gores of blood . The complainant was a most domestic woman , who never left her home , but she and her children were half starved by the prisoner , aud witness often assisted her with food out of her ovm scanty means . John Pearson , husband to the last witness , stated that on Saturday he " saw a stick rise and fall through tlie window of the prisoner ' s house as if some person was beating another inside with great violence . The house was at some distance , and as the door was shut , witness heard no cries , —Mr . Ballantine : You and your wife assisted this poor woman ?—Witness : Oh , sir , don'tspeak of that , I'd blush to mention it ; ' twas a triflle—a mere trifle . - I wish it had been , more , poor thimr , she subsists on too little . This little touch of

    generous sympathy and uuDStentatious humanity thrilled through the court with an electric effect . — Mr . Dallantiue ordered the prisoner to pay a fine of £ a , or be imprisoned for two months , besides giving security to keep the peace in future . The prisoner was locked up in default . The worthy magistrate subsequently ordered five shillings to be given to the complainant , and a like sum to the poor but worthy man who hud relieved her in . her necessities . —Pearson : No , your worship ; I am obliged to you . My wife and I can earn our little morsel and eat it in peace . Give it all to the poor woman . —Mr . Ballantine highly commanded the noble spirit which exhibited itselfinsolowa state , and was sure the honest fellow ' s own emotions were the best reward he could receive .

    _ „ . — - — . . Shalii CnoxnTEH hate a Siatub ?—( From the Dublin Nation . )— " Decimus" has sent us a heap of rabid trash , calling upon the Irish representatives to be in their places , and vote against a statue to Oliver Cromwell in the new English House of Parliament . What is it to us what statues are set up in , or omitted from , tkat place ? Our concern is with the adornment of a totally different senate-house . But if we had to deal with the question , the omission of Cromwell out ofa gallery of English rulers , because of his persecutions in Ireland , would be a piece of lamentable absurdity . Why are they all Cromwells ? In what respect was he worse than Henry , who planned the pirate invasion—than Edward , who made it penal to be an Irishman , in Ireland , and rated the life of a native at a fine of a few shillings

    than Richard , who granted the " entire dominion of Ireland for ever" to one of the minions of his pleasure—than Elizabeth , who made the fair fields of Munster n desert strewn with corses and ashesthan that cold pedantic tyrant , James , who stripped their lands from a fourth part of the people , as a highwayman strips a traveller of his purse—than his son , the false , soulless miscreant , who sold them justice as a fixed tariff , niul having clutched the money , violated the terms of his unkingly bargain . For the overthrow of this man ( ludicrously-called iu some grave books a martyr ) , Oliver Cromwell deserves well of the people of England , and of us

    doserves no worse than the rest of his class . But if Englishmen permit the man who trampled down an odious tyranny that sported with their lives , liberty , and honour , the only true ruler they had for centuries , to be excluded from the muster of their sovereigns , they will earn the contempt of tlio world . Let no man , vrho does not know the circumstances well , venture to decide on such a question from hearsay and prejudice . If Cromwell was a knave and a hypocrite a thousand times over , he did substantial service to the cause of human liberty , and in nothingmore than in having ( as tlie elder Boswell oueo told Dr . Johnson ) "taught kings that they have a joint in their necks . "

    Irish Liberalise—The Priests and the "Nasiosf . "—The party of which the late Mr . Davis was the head , now lies under great suspicion in Ireland , on account of its supposed liberal tendenciss . It is not so intensely Catholic as the other Repeal organs , and has not hesitated to approve of the New Colleges' Bill , even though the government has refused to place them under the exclusive controul of any priesthood . It is even said to have been a mooted point with the Committee of the Itcpeal Association , whether the late Mr . Davis and the other members of the Young Ireland party should not be openly denounced as the advocates of infidelity , because of their

    support of the " Infidel Colleges' Bill . " As it is , the priest party of Ireland is labouring hard to undermine the influence of the Nation , and a new paper is just about to be started in opposition to it , which is reported to be under the patronage of the O'Connells and the Roman Catholic clergy . A good seed , however , has already been sown in Ireland by the labours of Mr . Davis and his coadjutors ; they have learned the Irish people to think and act for themselves ; and , doubtless , there arc those yet surviving in Ireland , who are able and willing to carry on the good work , and prevent the popular movement from becoming a mere agitation for the aggrandisement or the establishment of a particular priesthood . —Leeds Times

    Caution to the Public . —No sooner is a medicine well established in public favour than a host of imitators spring up , who , for the sake of profit not only wrong the proprietor of the genuine medicine , but inflict a serious injury on the unwary purchaser of their base counterfeit trash . These remarks apply to the remedy which is so well known as " Abernethy ' s Pile Oiptmcnt , " This excellent remedy for Piles has been established by undoubted proofs of its efficacy . Purchasers may be able to detect these frauds by asking particularly for " Abernethy ' s Pile Ointment" in covered pots , price 4 s . Gd . ( which is the lowest price the proprietor is _ enabled tosollit at owing to the great expense of the ingredients ) , and observe the name of C . King is on the government stamp pasted round each pot . Sufferers from piles will not repent giving the Ointment a trial .

    ExrLosioN . —Loss of i vf o Lives . —Between eleven and twelve o ' clock on Thursday forenoon an explosion took place at Ilarlow West Marsh , in a house situated in the " back row . " It occurred in a room on the second story , carrying away the greater portion of the roof and demolishing tl \ c wall separating the two rooms of which the floor consisted . The two rooms presented a scene of complete destruction , the furniture and other fittings being shattered into innumerable fragments . Doubled up in the corner of the room lay the body ofa youth dreadfully crushed and quite dead . It appears that the entire house was rented by a man named Jackson , whose remains were discovered on the outside of the premises , and who , assisted by his son ( the youth whose body was found in the room ) , carried on the business ofa firework manufacturer .
