LF . GAL . SOTICE . —f am daily receiving comnranications from persons requiring yratmioiu legal adviceln . the Star . whose very letters prove them to be men of property . The space of this ptipor is not to be monopolised by the rich to the detriment of the poor , whose cases shall always obtain the jrst consideration . JRidi taea requiring advice shall in future receive pbivate answers opon remitting a fee of from five shillings to h Jf a sovereicn according to the length of their eases and their ability to pay . Ebsest Jones . U . P .. Dudley . —A . must either replevy or psy all reaaonable damage done tooth this year and the last before ; ' he can have his horse again .

If yon will send me a correct copy of the note , I will then advise you as to the be-t mode of proceeding and the proper court . Siobge Uosests . — If the collector of the poor ' s rategives you rtcelpt for 15 s . 6 d . poors rate for " such and such premises , " ( correctly specifying them ) that will be enough ; and- whether he names the late or present occupier will be of bo consequence . You had better take him the money . 3 uas Hesdet . —Carriage-hill . —The reason which yea ¦ ay the society assign for not paying , viz ., that the "income tax absorbes all their income , " is a palpable
falsehood , for the tax does not amount to much more than one-fortieth part of this income . I do nut see what course youcan take , except that of prosecuting Vigorously the suit which you say is pleading in the Scotch court . K . C—Should you acquire future property , the creditor allude to , or any other of your present creditors could briag you before the court , and it ( the court ) would probably direct you to apply a part of it towards the satisfaction of your debts ; bnt the creditor alluded to would only come in rateably with the others . -Johs Miodletos . —You can only uistrain the crop for the rent , as yon have not , I suppose , obtaihed any judgement for the debt ; hat as jour tenant appears to have abandoned both the land and the crop , I think yon may safely sell the whole crop , and , after deducting the rent , pay the surplus to your tenant should he ever demand it .
W . Feuh . —I cannot see how it could happen that trust money belonging to you came to be paid to the official assignee of the bankrupt . There must be some fact or circumstance , I should think , which you have omitted to state . Without further information I cansot advise you as to the course you should take . If I knew the real names of the bankrupt and of all the other parties , when the bankruptcy took place , when the trust-money was paid to the official assignee , and the name of the present official assignee , I would write t « him and might probably obtain the information yon wish for . J . C . —B isigl . —Unless seme information caa be obtained from Mr Nicholls or Richard Trew , the case , I fear , is a hopeless one . tx Esses Cbastist . —No necessity for a codicil . I was not before aware that the will contained a residuary
dense in your favonr , as well as residuary bequest . The circumstance of the will being made , before you were admitted to the property makes no difference . The attestation of the will is in conformity with the late Wills ' Act Ht James Sweet . —If the executor , upon being cited , should refuse to prove the will , the court , upon the testator's next of kin declining to take out administration with the will annexed , would , no doubt , grant such administration to your friend , unless some creditor of the testator to a larger amount should ap ly for such administration ; bnt if the house and land form a sufficient security for the money due to your friend , his best plan will be to call upon the devisees of the house and land to turn the cquitaHe mortgage , which he acquired by th » deposit ot the title-deeds , into a legal one ; and if with the power of sale—supposing the devisees will rive
it—so much the better . At present ygur friend has no " right te sell . " If the honse and land are of sufficient value to cover your friend's claim , his money would seem to be quite safe ; bnt I would advise him t « obtain a regular legal mortgage as soon as may be , and I will render him eFery assistance in ray powerabout it . E . Scbowt . —I will write to Mr Broughton ; though it may be as well that I should first know in whatyear he mortgage to him was made , and how Jong he and the party to whom it is supposed he has sold the Property have been in possession of it , or in the rece ' pt of tile rents I suppose it is quite certain that there h as been neither a foreclosure nor release of the equity of redemption . S . Abhijoh . —Except under an Act of Parliament , a public footpath , immemoriaUy enjoyed , cannot be stopped up . Any one may pall down or remove the
obstruction , provided it be done peaceably ; but the partv removing it would render himsulf liable to an action * - and in such action the question would be , whether the tootpath was a legal public footpath or not f Ose 01 this Lisd Coxpakt , Portsea . —You may recover the old debt under the Small Debts' Act ; but you must , of course , prove the delivery of the goods . I suppose the receipts which you have given for goods tubscquently sold , show on the very face of the receipts vh $ n they were sold . T . P . —The lad not having learnt the business , and you htmng had his services for twelve months , I am inclined to think that you would not recover any portion of the intended fee , or prenanm , were you to sue for it . Beothe * Chabtist , Shadsrell . — &o allowance what ever ; and if a person duly summoned does not attend he may be fined , unless he can show a good reason for ¦
bis non-attendance . ">» -J . P . Smith . —I suppose the father or some friend of the apprentice entered into the usual covenant for the gocd conduct of the apprentice ; and if so , the covenantor may be sued on the covenant for thelois of the services of the apprentice . K . —The holder of Jie note can only sue for the instil , ments that have become due ; but similar promissory notes are sometimes so drawn , that the whole suji is mad" payable in case default is made in . the payment of any instalment , it may possibly be so in your case . If you will send me a correct copy of ( he note , I will then advise you as to the best mode of proceeding , and the proper ceurt . D . F . —Unless you have only a life cBtate or the partial interest in your property , you may dispose of it by deed or will to whom you please . You will do well , however , to consider , whether such a disposition of your property as you speak of would be such a one as
an upright and just man would make . If you send me the uarticulars of both your family and j our property , I -will advise you as to what disposition ot your property you ought to make ; and if yon wish it , I will prepare you either a will or deed of gift , as may be most advisable , and at a very moderate charge . Do not attempt to do the thing yourself , as you seem to wish ; for if you do , questions and disputes may arise , and half of your property be spent in litigation , ss is but too commonly tht « ase where people make their own wills . illuu liOK . —If you will send me a copy of flat part of Mr Mawson ' s will by which he gave the annuity to your late father , I shall be better able to advice upon your case .

MISCELLANEOUS . Dohcaw Bobebtson . —Beceired . Shall be attended to . The Ballot eor the O'Coskorviele Tea Teat ih be . HALF OF THE VICTIMS—To TBE CHABTIST PORtlCFriends , —We have been solicited by several patriotic individuals ( who are evidently desirons of promoting the happiness of the victims ) to postpone the ballot for a month , that they may be further enabled to extend their efforts to procure assistance for the same . To such individuals too mnch praise cannot be awarded : —their praiseworthy exertions are highly appreciated by the democrats of Bilston , and cannot fail to command ( for them ) the respect and esteem of all good men engaged in the great work of human regeneration . Had every locality acted with the same spirit as the men of Alva , Winhton , Birmingham , Carrington , Oxford , Derby , Halifax , Wakefield , Banbury , and a few
other places , together with the private exertions of some families who have contributed as much as 4 , 6 , andS , subscriptions each , our object would have been more than realised : but , alas ! alas ! the greatest and most influential localities seem to treat the project as something beneath their notice !! This apathy and indifference is trnlv deplorable ! The victims have sacrificed comfort , health , relatives , and everything they possessed , in order that'lie ; liberty might be secured !! And are we to cast them aside as the mill lord casts aside his hired glares when they areno longer able to add to his riches ! Perish the thought !!! Would it not be more just , more honourable , more praiseworthy , and afford you more consolation to provide the aged , the widow , and the orphan with plenty and comfort ? Undoubtedly it would ; then why do you withhold your : assistance ? we do not solicit you to aid u = in an act of charity , but in the performance of along-neglected duty ? We again solicit your co-operation in the good work and hope you will Rive an early response to our call .
All Post-office orders to be made payable at the Bilston Post-office . To Thomas Almond , trunk maker , and addressed to the care of Mr Joseph Linney , White Horse , High-street , Bilston . The ballot will take place on Tuesday , July the 6 th . The O'Cosvobville Tea-tbat , to be balloted for at Bilston , on theCth of July , isrichly embellished with an engraving of O'Connorville , accurat-ly copied from one of the coloured plates presented with the Star . The tray is of first-rate quality and the colouring the most splendid ! The border is an excellent imitation of rosewood edged and inlaid with gold ; and the form of the tray is what is called by the trade the Victoria Gothic style !! not a very charming name to the democratic body-tyho are forced to contrii-ate to tha support of Victoria against their inclinations . However , if the name of the form is not an appropriate one , the system of freedom and independence which it represent ? , and the purpose for which it is to be balloted renders it worthy of the consideration of every land member aud Chartist in the kingdom .

TO THE CHARTISTS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM . FaiEspg , —Every one who has read the manly and straightforward address from Mr O'Connor , to the electors of Nottingham , most feel a sincere desire to see him placed in the Commons' House of Parliament , where he wonld be enabled to support the noble leader , T . S-Duneombe , Esq ., in battling with the opponents at the labouring classes , who are debared the righti and privileges of free men . Nowyoahavean opportunity to show the world von are in earnest , by assisting as in returning him M . P . for this borough , and in so doing yon will be only doing your doty , and exercising that moral power which you ought to feel the greatest pride in employing for so noble a purpose .
It is generally known that the operatives of Nottingham consist chiefly of stocking makers , who are paid so little for their labour that they cannot share much towards paying electioneering expenses , and therefore we consider it the duty of every admirer of the principles of Chartism , to come forward with his mite , and so convince tha world that the workingmen are determined to have at least one real representatives . You are all well aware there are great expenses at an election , which roast be paid ; such as public meetings , bootie , &c , & 9 . ; and we contend it would be disgraceful on our part to allow , or expect , Mr O'Connor to spend one farthing . Remember Mr O'Connor hasworked for us as bo man previous ever worked , and it is now our turn to convince him of oarsincerity , by working to return him , which may easily be done by making a strong effort , aa the amount of money required would be small , and the means are a 3 simple . , ' ¦ I . ; . i 1
The Third Section of the Land Company has closed—the Company now numbers 18 , 000 members , and if every member will pay one penny per week for six weeks , it will amount to £ 450 , which sum will be sufficient to pay all necessary expenses . But the subscription must not be confined to the Land members alona , for probably we may have to demand a scrutiny , and then a much larger sum wsuld be required than for the election ; but let us beg of yen to rally round us , and give us the means to secure a victory . As a last appeal , we beg of you to remember it ia your own cause—the only cause which can elevate the working classes from their present degraded state . It will be the Land and the Charter that will be ,
brought forward in the person of Mr O'Connor . See that both are made triumphant . We hope this appeal will be taken up immediately , and that each secretary will forward the amount collected to Mr James Sweet , bookseller , Goose-gafe , Nottingham , who will after the election publish a Balance Sheet in the Stab , so that every subscriber will know how his money has been expended ; and if any surplus remains , it will be devoted to any other purpose the majority may think proper . We remain friends , yours on behalf of the Committee , J . SxEBsir , Secretary . W . Mott , Chairman . Nottingham , Jane 8 , 1847 .

THE CENTRAL REGISTRATION AND ELECTION COMMITTEE TO THE CHARTISTS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM . Fbixow-Countrimbn , —Oar long and continued agitation for the People ' s Charter has resulted in implanting in the minds of the unrepresented millions of this country a deep and lasting conviction that justice never can be awarded them until they are folly and honestly represented in the Honse of Commons . In order to effect this desirable end itia necessary that no opportunity should ba lost of ap * pealing to the electoral body , and of demanding at their hands a faithful discharge of that duty Which the present unjust distribution of political power allows them only to perform . Being strongly impressed with a conviction that tha battle for enfranchisement must be fought within the walls of Parliament , we hail with pleasnre the attempt which the Chartis of Derby are now making to secure the return of
MR PHILIP M'GRATH , one of the best and ablest men that has yet stood forward to advocate the great principles of the Charter . Great credit is due to the men of Derby for making such a selection , and as they are about doing the work of the nation , we hope that they will receive national co-operation and assistance . Let the Chartists of the empire , therefore , be up aad doing . Money is wanted , and it would be grossly unjuit to impose upon the enthusiastic band of patriots at Derby the expense of a struggle that ought to fall equally upon all parties concerned . Mr M'Grath has declared his resolution of going to poll , and of thereby affording the honest and independent electors of Derby an opportunity of re . cording their votes for the only just and honest form of government that can be advocated . Mr M ' Grath stands as the champion of Freedom of Person .
Freedom of Conscience . Freedom of the Press . Freedom of Education . Freedom of the Soil . Freedom of Religion . And Freedom for the slave who is now tied hand and foot to the chariot oi Capital . Chartists ! upon you we now call to aid this first attempt on the part of gorjtafrto place a Ban is parliament that can

LAMBETH -Attempt to Mu »» . -JamM Loftua Brock , a half-pay lieutenant in the army , was placed at the bar , before the Hon . 0 . C . Norton , for final exami . nation on a charge ot stabbing his wife Ann , with intent te murder her . - The first witness cnlltd was Mr Mason a surgeon , in High-streot , Newingtom who deposed that about twelve o ' clock on Thursday noon the wife of the prisoner was brought to his surgery , and his attention having been called to a stab upon tho left arm , ho examined it , and at about two'inches above tho elbow found a wound of a triangular shape two inches in length . On further examining the arm he found a second wound underneath , but not of so extensive a character , and it was evident to him that the wound had been indicted by the same instrument , which entered at the top and
fame out at the bottom . It was his opinioD that th < wound had been inflicted bv the knife ia the possession of the officer , and which he understood helong « d to the prisoner . Mr Mason proceeded to say that having heard the prisoner had received a gun shot wound on tke head in battle , he examined the wound , and found that it win perfectly superficial and not at all likely to affect the prisoner ' s mind . The evidence given on tho previous eramitution was then read over to the prisoner , who asked his eldest son if he could swear he saw him take the knife from the table before his mothtr w : is s ' abbed , hi was implied by hig evidence ! The son replied , he could not swear that . In reply to Mr Norton as to the
atate which the prisoner was in wiien he returned home on Thursday morning , the witness said he appeared to hare been drinking . The prisoner said it appeared to bo the intention of his wife to press the law against him to the utmost extremity , but in so doing she would be only punishing herself , as the moment the charge against him became public hiB half-pay s would be taken from him , and the result would be that she would be obliged io go into the workhouBe . Mr Norton hoped that tint threat would in no way influence Mr < Brock , for be felt satisfied that whatever might be tl ' m result , the Governmerit would not let her be a losi'r . The prisoner was then committed to Newgate for trial ;
THAMES . — The Poiicb Agaiw . —William Hanley , a police constable of the II division , No . 85 , was charged with attempting to pass a . counterfeit five-shilling-piece . The solicitor to the Mint was in attendance to watch the case . Mar ; Senior , of 29 , Hosier-lane , City , said that she came down to assist her mother-in-law at Fair field place during the fair at Stepney . On Wednesday week , between the hours of eight and nine o ' clock in the evening , the prisoner came to her and usked for a penny roll , t ndcring her a fivo-stiillin ^ piece in payment . She went out to get the change , but when she irent back the piinmr was gone . He never came back for the change . The prisoner , in his defence , said he had three bi < i crown-t in his pocket , each of which was connected with a tiistinot charge , but forgot to wrap them up in paper , and the consequence was they mingled with some penny pieeis wbi ; h be had in bis porket also , and he tendered ih coin in mistake . It was not probuble that he , being on duty at the time , would knowingly proffer a bast
coin , which was marked for the purpose of being pro ducediaevidence . Mr Ballantinu ( to the defendant)—How is it that jou cume possessed of the " base coin ? Hanley—They were connected with charges which I had to prosecute , and it is my duty to keep it in my possession f .. r twenty-one days . Mr Ballantinc—If that be the reeulation , it is a very bad one , and so far as my district is concerned , 1 * 11 endeavour to put an end t « it . I am not at all satisfied with the explanation whuth you hare given . On ihe next day you should have found yourself with either a counterfeit crown the less or a penny the more , and in thateaBe it would have becu your duty to h » ve gone to your inspector , and have reported to that envct , telling him that you had been guilty or some mis . take . You had n'i right to have three pieces of fal- » coin in your pocket , and the arrangement which allows of such a thing is a very bad one . They should all be given up to the superintendent . I shall dismiss the cu » e on the present evidtmre , and it is for the defendant to see how the commissioners will view his conduct .
SOUTH WARK . —Henry Ashcr Fitzjames , the boy be . tween eleven and twelve years of age , whose cusu vrni reported in tbe Iforlbtrn Xtar of last week for attempting to poison his mother arid her infant , was brought before Mr Cottingham , for rn-examination' on the charge . The prisoner sail tbat n mau named Junes , n casual pauper , in . tab habit of sleeping in St Saviour ' s Union Workhouse , was the person who instigated him to commit the act , aud had furnished him with the artenic for the purpose . The Inspector had made every in quiry to ascertain if there was such a man us the pri . ¦ oner described accustomed to sleep there , and could gnthcrno information on the subject , ilu ( the Inspector ) therefore believed there was no truth in it , and a little girl between eight and nine yours of age , the prisoner '!
sister , had mentioned that her brothtr told her he had put arsenic in the water with which his mother uudu coffee , on Sunday morning last , when she was , attacked with illness and vomiting Mr Cottingham had thr little girl referred to brought up to the court , and when questioned on the subject , she at first hesitated to answer , but when pressed , and told that she would not be harmed if she told tho truth , she theu replied tbat her brother did communicate to her that he had put arsenic in tbe water that was used fur the coffee , to il « - stroy his mother ; and also that he had mixed gists and precipitate powder in the child ' s food . . Mr Cottingham to the prisoner . —You hew what your sister has Baid , is it true ? Prisoner . —Some part of it , but not all . Mr Cottingham . —Is there any truth in h ( ,
our statement that Jones , urged you to poiton your mother to get possession of her property , for 1 believe ii to be pure invention . on your part ! Prisoner . — It ii true all I have said about Jonet , he did give mo the poison , and told . me how to use it . Mrs FitzjameB here stated that about six weeks ago her son brought home a lump of green stuff , which he said was poison , that Jones had given him—that when she gotitehe took-it to a chemist ' s shop in Bermondscy-• trect , and that on being testtd it was pronounced nt » t to be poisun , although if t-ken internally to be of a deleterious character . She added tbat she had none of the " stuff , " having thrown it all away . In reply to Mr Cottmgham , the witness said her infant , which it was expected was ill , through having glass and precipitate
powder mixed amongst its food by her son , was getting better . Inspector Horusby said he called upon the mtdical mau , who attended the child , aud he did not credit that anything of a deloterious nature was administered in it » food , as , if cuch tiad been the case , it would not have urvivi-d . Mr Cottingham ( to thi prisoner )—Did you mix anything in tho infant's food ? Prisoner—Yes , I did . Mr Cottingbum—What was it ! Prisoner—One piece of glass about that size ( pointing to his thumb nail , ) and a piece of stone too , Mr Cottingham—You told your mo : her that you mixed precipitate powder ; then that is ; not true ? Prisoner It is not . I put n p eoe of glass and a small stone . Mr Cuttifgham—Wlmt food was it you put thorn into * Prisoner—Some boili . d bread and milk . My mother ivns in bed at tho time .
Mrs Hales , the uurse , had care of the child , and she it was who fed it . After some further proceediugt of a similar character , Mr Cottingham said that the ofiVnce was still involved in mysfrrv ; that he should wish the Inspector would apply at the chemist ' s shop in DermouJ . sey-street , and ascertain whether the mother's stuttnvnt was true , namely , that she took a piece of" green stuff , " as slie termed it , given toner by her son , and hud it ex * . mined by a chemist . It would bo necessary to hare the chemist ' s evidence , and also to make further inquiry into tbe affiir . He should therefore rcmund the prisoner . BOW . STREET . —Tub Imfinticide at No . 9 . Ofpbb Welmnoton-steeet , Stband , —This case bin been ulready noticed in the Northern Star . Further depositions luve been entered into a . ainst the man mil , alias Dolly ,
and Elizabeth Cleveland , for th « murder o ( her male infant . Tfcig being the first time the female prisoner was present to answer to tbe charge , she attracted , as is usual on such occasions , particulurattention , and the court was crowded during the day . She is a tall thin woman , abeut forty jear » of age , of dark complexion , bard features , and heavy eyo brow » , and during the examination she paid the greatest attention to the statements made by the several witnesses , which were merely the same in substance as occurred on the former occasions , and before the coroner's jury , without putting any question , although she expressed her dissent in a few instances , by shaking her head , ani other gestures . MrJardine considered that tho evidence again&t theinat . ; prisoner iva « not of such a nature as to warrant his committal
to-Newgate , and he thought he wns perfectly justified ta ordering him to be discharged , tbe only e » idcn » e against him being that he was seen on the evening of Ihe day in question leaving the house , as he was accustomed to do , ia a clandestine manner ; bnt the nature of the evidence against the ftmale being of a . ver ; auspicious and strong character , Bhe should be fuliy committed ' . o Newgate . Mr Wolff then applied tbat , as she was Just recovered from her confinement , and consequently in a very delicate state of health , she might be conveyed at her own expense to Newgate in ft cab instead of tie prison van .. Mr Jardine , however , declined to make any order upon the subject , and the priseacr was re . moned from the bar . The male prisoner was then attained upon the coroner * * murant , and they were both coareyed at six o ' clock tofteirgatsia tbe van ,

He succeeded in obtaining tin interview with the employer , and we are h » ppy to say succeeded in bringing the affair to an issue , perfectly satisfactory to all parties concerned , by inilueiug the employer to withdraw the reduction . ¦ Mr flamphreye reported . that , on the Slst of May , he attended the Conference of the crown-glass makers of England , whom he address , d . The mo < t intense interest was manifested , and a resolution unanimously carried , with three times three cheers , in favour of the Association ; and the
delegates further enjoined to use all their influence , on tbeir return to their respective localities , in spreading a knowledge of the objects and principles of the Association . Mr Peel reported that he had attended the power-loom woollen weavers of Kei ^ hler , who were working under a protest iigainst a reduction of wages . Mr Pfd succeeded in obtaining mi interview with the employer , and after nearly i two hours' intf-rww , completely succeeded in inducing that gcntltmon to withdraw the reduction . The hands , to the number of about one hundred and [ fifty , were puid on the same dny , the advanced wage ; and the respectable employer bore ample testimony to the quiet and equitable spirit evinced by the Association through its ngt-nt . The result of this important affair excited the liveliest interest throughout the whole town and neighbourhood , and will certainly give Rreai impetus to the progress of the movement in
that district , contrasting so powerfully ns it does with the protracted struggle maintnincd some months back in the same town , with scarcely ao favourable a result . —Mr Peel further reported that on the next day he waited on Mr Lemare , of Manchester , to induce that gentleman to forego n very serious reduction oflvred to that centleman ' s hands . Mr Li'inare receivvl thu deputation , Mesan Peel , Parker and Jacobs , most politely ; but stilted it as a principle which he could in no ease depart from , not to permit the inierferti C'of third parties between him and his hands . The deputation in vain attfmpted to combat and show the inconvenienbe o such si principle . Mr Lemarc politely intimated that , at present , he did not feel disposed to depart from his custom . The deputation then withdrew . On meeting the bunds , they weie ' advised to send a deputation from their ewn number immediately .
The deputation returned in about nn hour with tho pleasing news that the reduction was withdrawn , and that the men might return to their work iu the morning , Mr Peel proceeded next day to Bacup , where be achieved the third great victory in the same week , and proved in a manner not to be disputed the superiority of the principle of conciliation over the hateful system of rush turn-outs nnd strikes . He found on arriving at Bacup upwards of 200 powerloom weavers and factrry hands out in resistance of n reduction , and that they had bcon out for three weeks . In this delicate state of affair * Mr Peel sousht an interview with the employers » nd after much argument and iipgotiation , occupying their-eatest part of the . day , lie feils proud to say lie again succeeded in restoring p ace a « d rescuing the town of Bncup from nil the excitement of a protracted strike . The very great civility and kindnrss shown to Mr P . by the two gentlemen call for a markod expression of thanks .
It is needless to add tbat this ? a « e has placed the Association in a proud position in lfuetip ; immense ndherons are expected as the fruits of this bloodless victory . On Monday evening the 7 th inst , Mr Robson nrd Mr Humphries attended a meeting of tliw bo » t and shoe makers , Greenwich , for the purpose of setting forth to that body the plans and objects of the National Assoeiation . The deputation respectively filtered into the usual explanatory remarks . A nuinrer of ques . tions were atiked , which wero very satisfactorily answi-red . We have every reason to expect that this body sill very shortly connect themselves nith tho Association as the fonly sure and certain remedy for their trades grievances .
Messrs n , Williamson and Shnckleton attended a general meeting of the joiners * sociery , lieldnt the Globe Inn , on Tuesday cvenimr , to explain the objects and principles of the United Trades Assoo ' mtion . Mr Shackleton opened the bu « tK < -ss of the evening with a few prasK tical remarks on the working of tho Associntion , afttr . which Mr Williamson delivered nn able and effective address , shoivin * the puperlowty of a Xarion . il Association 8 ( Ctiounl or isolated ones . Several question * were asked by various member-, and satisfactory answers givenvthe rrflnlt of whirfl was , a fivoarable vote for the Association was carried .
A public meeting of the type founders wns htld ok Tuesday evening . lhrS : h inst , » t the Jacob's \ Y * H , B » rblean . Mv Peel , Mr Humphries , and Mr Barrait , secretary , attended « s a deputation from the CerUral Committee , wMi the view of explaining the objects of th » association .

Mr- Psit . on rising »» M ho should not occupy the » U tetvHoa of the meeting to any unnecessary len ^ n of time because he hoped to be oble to convince tliea * of the im . portance of Joining the National Association , which k » tald vra » established upon two Rwut fscu , namely :-That the industrious cIbbsci do not receive a fair day's wage for a fair dny ' t labour ; an . 1 , sernmlly , that for some years past , their endeavours to obtain this have , with few exceptions , been unsuccessful . Mr Peel dlsoanted upon this branch of our constitution , and tbowed that the facts were tao powerfully borne out by tbelow prUes to whioh many of the traiea wtre reduced .

as to reduce their workmen , wbeffever they thought fit j and when there was a surplus of Jab « ur-r » in the market , the men had no y » wer within themsnfves to resist such reduction . To obviate this , it was afisftluteiy neceswry that ) there should be a nationalcombinatibn of th < - traces , for the mutual protection of the rights w ; industry , vnel When the lcrw . priced trades were protectedrtf home , tht b ^ h . price tuaileB would not be tortured with ' tii e far of » d influx of hands into their trade .

Mr Peel com eluded his remar 1 « annld great applause .
Mr E . HoMfHSTES on being called , said—That an " apology ought to be mads for the necessary brevity of their remark , —wJiiflh ' H-aa , that they hadanother meetiDCto attend that evening , consequently they could not enter ' into that full and lwltf explanation of the principles .. nd ' objects of the National Association , to what they other- wise would have dono . Mr Humphries went on to sbow that there was a positive-necessity for such a combination as tho National Association , inasmuch ns tliere exi-ted between the various trades budies in this country , an intimate and inseparable connection—a mutual and unavtmluble deuend ^ . ce of one trade upon nnother . So , m « ch so , that the interest * and prosperity of one could . notbe promoted without { -s'some extent ) enhancing tho Jttterols of the other . For Jnst « nce . if we take any extensive body of operatives , who-are reduced in t ! . price of their laboHr , that reduction 1 would umloubt * dly nftect
tbch * consumption of coats , wsVf , aud every other article ofwearioi ? apparel , so that in proportion as the amount ofconeamptioB decreased , in thosame proportion will the demand lor that kind of goods decrease also ; and when thenrwas no demand for their labour , there was r » tj little chance in succeeding to accompli *!) an advance ot wages . Bat when the , trades were in a position tn obtain and oijby an adequate remuneration for their labour , iinincreased consumption of such articles ) would be the natural resDlt , £ 8 all classes would be mutually binefitted thereby . IHvas in this manner that tin- , trades wer « unavoidably dependant one upon another ; and the interest and ' prosperity of the whole can only b . > secured , and permanently preserved , by the trades themselves organisingand concentrating their energies in one vast and National Confederation , for the mpport and protection of themselves . Mr H . sat down warmly cheered by the meeting ;
Sereral wry important and i > erious question ! were » sked , which'M / Barratt very satisfactorily answered . The following resolution was unanimously passed : — " That , a vote of thanks be given to the deputation , for the able and satisfactory manner in which they hove explained the principles of the National AssBciation of ' . United Trades-. ? . ' . MANCHESTER—The District Committee held their { weekly meeting in the large room of the Railway Inn , Deansgate . The business commenced by tin- secretary , Mr J ; Goulding , reading the minutes ef the previous meeting , which were confirmed . Mr G . then pr-ceaded to report the proceedings of the late Conference at Bir . minghani , - which gaye general satisfaction . A deputation of silk pick '« ra , in the employ of a large firm la Manchester , presented themselves , and reported that their employer had' offered a reduction of three shillings
and fourpenoe in- the pound . After an explanation of the case , the District Committee appointed Messrs P « rke » and Jacobs , who were present , in conjunction with Mr Peel , member of the Central Committee , to wait upon the empioyerin quentfmn , on the following meriting , as mediators , according-te-role , as passed by the late Con . ference . The deputation having succeeded in obtaining an interview , bad the pleasing gratification of seeing the men return to their employment at their former rate of wages . This- case affords another proof » f the value nd efficacy of welUtlmed arbitration . Messrs Jacobs and Parkerwere-engaged on a similar mission « ithtwo other firms ; in reference t » a reduction in the silk trade . One of the employers , a large millowner , expressed him . self much pleased 1 with th « modem which the National Association 1 managed these affairs , as by inquirj the masters had a chance as well as the men of obtaining justice .
On Saturday evening Messrs Littler , Jacobs , and Parker , delivered- addresses in favour of the Na'ion « l Association ,- . by invitation , to- a meetinic of metal plainer * , held at the Waggon and EorBea , Bridpe-street , which were received with the- warmest approval .

THE OPBftAxTITE BLOCK PRINTERS . TO THE BDIEOE Of TBE MOETBEBN STAR . Sib , —In consequence of a reduced list of prices issued to the trade , signed John Graham , chairman , who ii manager and co-partner with Messrs Nitld , Binyon « nd Co , Mayfield , and J'olin Bannertnan , who states himself to be secretary-to . the block printers of the southern districts of Lancashire , consisting of four or five shops , wh * have withdrawn themselves from the general body of the trade , for the purpose of carrying out their nefarloul scheme , vir .- , a reduction of the block printers prices to a very serious extent , under the impression that they would obtain-more constant emploj ^ enr . In this view we . hold them deoide « ly wrong , and believe thiit no reduction of prices will ever benefit the block printer ; this w « maintain b / tho sweeping reductions which have formerly taken place .
When or > where we would ask , is to be found tht regularity of work which has resulted from former re . ductions . We sincerely believe th . it oil reductions are as inimical to toe-best interests of the employer as to the employed . We , therefore , mnstSrmly protest against the whole of the proceeding of tho above persons whose names ar « sign d tO'the aforesaid list of reduced prices—and are fully determined to expose e ; ich and every party who commence working : at the 5 aid reduced list , by placard anil every other legal means , to make all the transm-tions known to the merchant , to the tradesman , and to the publio in general .
Ifr has been published in the " Preston Guardian , " that Mr Cobden , of Cross Hall , intended to reduce bit wovkmen to the amount of thirty-three per cent ,, but wa are happy to state that Mr Cobden or his ngents have , satisfactorily shown to tbe public , that that report h'd so . real foundation , and be it to their honour that tha idea of a reduction had never been entirtniiud by that firm . Nor can we believe by any other respectable firm iti Lancashire , or surrounding countries . Georqe Waihk , Chairmnn . Thomas Graham , Secretary to the block printers . Bury , Jane 5 th , 181 " .

.. : " Union forthe MUion . " ^ rvSL TRADES oTgREAT BRITAIN IN CONNECTION WITH THE NATIONAL TRADES ASSOCIATION . The Cenltal Committee beg to call the attention of the trade * to the fact of the monthly contribution of one halfpenny per man having been abolished by a vote of the late conference , and as
seteral ofHhe trades are considerabl y in arrears , the committee suggests tfyeproprietyof such arrears being immediately paid off . The committee beg alsatocall your attention to the resolution , also passed atjhe conference , requiring all contributions to be pitf monthly , and that any trade . permftting these arreak to exceed three months will' be out of benefit for two months after such arrears- are paid up ; the committee , therefore , urge upon : the members the absolute necessity , not only of all ar . rears being immediately transmhfe ' if ,-but that in future the greatest regularity should 1 be' observed in transmitting the payments according ttf Ms . '
The trades must perceive how impossible it will he for the Executive to properly perform their duty to the Association , ff the strictest attention is not pair ! to a regularity in the payments . The Central Committee will be placed in the painful'position of refasing support in cases of reduction fan the other Iiand , they beg to assure the trades that , in all cases of reduction or other attacks on the rights of labour ^ ' ihey will be guided in their decision b ? the amount , of funds in hand , having made up their minds to resist every reduction offered , as far as tlie trades , by punctually remitting their money , affo ^ s them the mean 3 of doing so .
The coinmmee are aware they have the power of calling for suM additional levies- as may be found * necessary , but they beg to submit Jbat there would- be a manifest injustice in calling for additional payments from those'who always have paid punccually , while so many remained in arrears ; besides the Central Committee have no wish l'o > call for extra levies unless in cases of absolute r ^ eessity . The committee beg also to urge tho necessity of pushing the interests of the Association in the ;? respective districts among those trades who have no 3 yet joined , as tbe power of the Association must arrays he in exact proportion to tfcw numbers and ( jsn ' sequent pecuniary resources . The committee beg more particularly to call your attention to the fact that there are a numbe ? of men
in various parts of the comtitry working : for She As . soeiation ; now , as you are aware in trads > . it is a work of considerable time before the prprftce so manufaetnredjean be brought into the market . sonsequently a considerable outlay is required to keep the men fully employed , they therefore urgently appeal to those trades who may have-private funds invested in government securities , to immediately take streps to withdraw such sums and imtst it with the employment department of the Association . The directors of that branch association offers 4
per cent , per annum for cash advanced on loan , the directors always taking care to Tetain a sufficient sum of monies so invested to meet contingencies , with a knowledge that capita ! sawr ? by the trades , and so employed , is converted into a most powerful engine for the protection of the sons of Labour from the grasping inroads of capital . ReScct for a moment in what manner your invested capital is now employed . Is it not used to grind anil oppress , instead of being applied as the most powerful means of protecting your wages . If ever the great problem be solved , how machinery can he matfe to work for you , instead of against you , it must be by you , the trades using your combined means for purchasing and working tbat machinery . by this mes » s alone will the master be made a blessing instead / af a curse to our order .
