      My clear Friends , Tfflien I tell you tbat I am obliged to steal a few hours from night in order to submit to you a full , simple , and complete treatise in n ext month ' s Magazine , wbicb must be publish ed on Thursday next , I feel assured you will excuse me this week ; and , if you should feeldisappointed . I flatter myself that next week you will be more than repaid , as I am d etermined to write an unanswerable treatise upon the question of questions—THE LAND AND THE BANK .

      1 can only tell you that it is now two o ' clock on Thursday morning , and that at half-past five I start on a journey of thirty-three miles to attend an auction , and that for the List fortnig ht I have not slept five hours anight . Here , and at Herringsgate , we are going on most gloriously . I have seventeen horses OF OUR OWN at work , and fifteen in-calf-heifers making dung , and ten houses up , and the carpenters ' work of all nearly comp leted . I will just give you one word upon the value of

      cooperation . On Friday last I purchased ten horses , for which coal merchants , brewers , timber merchants , and distillers , were all bidding , but I said . " No , they are worth more to the weavers than to you , and the weavers' pence shall heat your pounds , " so I bought them . At half-past five on Friday I wrote to Lowbands to build stables for ten horses ; my letter did not arrive till one o'clock on Saturday , and at seven on the same day the horses were each in

      separate firm stalls with mangers , and paved and finished . Now what say you to that ? and I was offered eight guineas , four guineas a-piece for two more than I gave , and on Monday they earned 8 s . 4 d . a horse , drawing stones to build houses for men that never had a house in their lives . When I tell you that I have the least profit from 'The Labourer , ' I may . without begging , ask you to read and KEEP the next number . Your faithful Friend , Feargus O'Connor .

      Email sum they feel confident would enable the commitee to amply provide for the future support of the aged and infirm , as well as for those who are deprived of their natural protectors , by the selfish crew , wh » enact their base laws to crush and grind us . They anxiously ( thnugh the Star ) look for responses from every quarter in the kingdom , to the nobJe example they have set , and although the majority are very poor men , are nevertheless determined tha ' t onr friends shall neither rot in prison , or a Poor Law Hell , for the want of their mite .

      " The Chartist Council being desirous of mani festing their devoted attachment and profound esteem towards Mr Thomas Dickenson , for the able and assiduous efforts he had displayed , during the i ast fewmonths ' residence in this town , in the ranks of the people and the cause of democracy , do hereby present him with a scarf , as a small token of gratitude ; for we have observed in him , while advocating popular rights , a sincere aesire to promote human progress . The cause of suffering humanity has occupied his chief attention . With a degree of natural eloquence peculiar to himself , he hag exhibited the manifold evils of class legislation , the monarchical pride of sovereigns , with all the paraphernalia of pomp and extravagance . He has also judiciously displayed , in terms not to be misunderstood , an historical account of English aristocracy , exposing the oligarchial tyranny of the present ages , as well-as past . He has taken great pains , in his discourses , to make known his profound views on tlie present state of

      societj ; the rapacious desires of therich to acquire wealth at the physical expense of the poor ; the great affluence of the one , and the hardships of the other Truth has been his only weapon , and he has directed , or rather desired , the working classes to walk in the paths of virtue , and steadily seek after useful knowledge . In sympathising with the British labourers , he has particularly wished to see them , not only an enlightened but elevated race of citizens , and has advocated unity , as necessary for the accomolishraent of tlieir emancipation . Seeing that knowled"e power , and unity is strength , le has done all in his power to impress these two axioms upon their minds . We deeply regret that we cannot secure his permanent stay in this town . However , we feel assured , where ever he goes , he will make known our principles the principles of the People ' s Charter . As he is now taking his farewell , we wish him t ? accept this as a memorial of our grateful esteem . "—Signed on behalf of the Manchester CouncilG . II . Smith

      MURDER IN SllOREDITCII .

      About half-past ten o ' clock on Wednesday night a leariul murder was committed by a man , named Thomas Brooks , nn umbrella-rib-maker , upon Win . Gobert , who at the time was living with the sister of the iorraer . The prisoner , when conveyed to the station-house , at once confessed the crime , merely assigning as a reason for its commission that , had ha not shot deceased , the latter would have shot him . When searched , some powder and shot were found on his person . From his statement , it appears thafc deceased , in company with the fcvnale mentioned , entered the house , and demanded some ti-itting property in the prisoner ' s possession . U pon being ordered to withdraw , and refusing Brooks threatened to lodge a bullet in the breast of deceased , and in-Btantl y fired ; the shot entering on the left aide of tho breast , death ensued instantaneousl y . Tho prisoner ia apparently under 20 , and hia victim about 23 years of age .

      On Thursday morning the prisoner was brought before Mr Arnold at Worship-street ; but the investigation was a private one . We have , however , sileiuieu a few particulars at the abive stated time . It appears that as police constable 201 11 was proceeding on his beat through Hare alley , Shoredhch , he was called into one of thc houses therein by * female , who said that a man named William Gobert had been shot . The constable at once proceeded into the house , where he found Gobert lying upon the basement flooring upon his back . lie had been shot through tho body , lie gave one moan onlv on tha

      approach ot the constable , and then ceased to breathe . The constable then proceeded up stairs , where he perceived upon the landing the prisoner , Thomas Brooks , who is connected with the murdured man either by marriage or otherwise , with ft sort of ¦ carbine in his hand , which had evidently been just let off Brooks , on perceiving the constable , exclaimed , "It I had not done it , they would bavo served meout . " Inspector Harris searched the prisoner , and found upon him a dark lantern , a powder-Mask , with powder , and some shot . The unfortu-Jiate man , it appears , had been to the house ( one o < bad repute ) on a previous occasion to demand certain things belonging to him in the prisoner ' s custody , anil ho was then told ifhe came there again on such nn enand , he would suffer for it . He did go again , and hence the dreadful catastrophe .

      "THE FRATERNAL DEMOCRATS . On Monday evening tliis society assembled at their place of meeting , Drury-lane , when , in the unavoidable absence of G . W . Wheeler , J . Caughlan was called to the chair . Some new members having been elected , letters were read from W . Daniells , editor of thft Miners' Advocate , and It . Wild , of Mottram , who were both nominated for membership . The discussion on the American Land Movement was then resumed . J . Overton said the American Reformers had jmi 6 forth twelve propositions , in which , forthe most \ n \> t , he concurred , although he regretted that' the Americans did not go the whole length of proclaiming the land national property . He wished the Americans would invest the women with the franchise , and set their faces against thc holding of land as pi ivaCe property in any shape . J . Mov repeated- the objections he had un ; f-d on a previous occasion to " partial reforms . " L ; nid monopoly was not the great evil—the monster emu

      was thc allowing land to be ot all held as pnviue property . After ' the first French Revolution there were e'even landholders where there had been uut one previously ; but was the condition of the people improved ? lie admitted the right of every individual ( o possess as his own the improvements lie effected on the land , but not to hold a property in the land itself . He next showed the evils of tie present currency system , and contended that tbe American Reformers were also in error asregardtd the currency .

      G . Julian Harney , while holding the doctrine that the land should not be private " property , il .:-fended the American Reformers . If their mownior . t was not perfect , it was open to improvement j lie laws of the American Reformers were not like * " the laws of the Medes and Persians . Carl Schapper opposed the views of the preceding speaker , who seemed to have taken Jwn ¦ Jacqu es Rousseau for his model . He ( C . Schappor ) was not for going back to the teachers of a centuiy

      ago , or even to the time of the French Revolution ; nor did he approve of the Communism taught by Robert Owen . Thc German Communists did tmt believe in the practicability of family communities ; the Germans would proceed in propagating tlniir principles , until the majority of the people were ripe for the change , and then change the eniiie system , social and political , at once . He disapproved of the American movement , because the Americans admitted the holding of the land as private property .

      On the motion of — Robson , seconded by — Brown , the discussion was again adjourned to the next meeting ; — Robson to open the discussion .
