" Union fortheMillion . " ™ Upn ? r e i tlesirmis * w week to amplify a fi " **?

It is the oftlprinK of a Je ait , whose guilt » rendered dark ami in f amous , and tin ? ° f tmi"g t 0 ° Venvhelra in affiicti ° n and trouble its unfortunate victims in the most cunning and subtle manner ; and therefore it is the most dangerous and futile in its operation S 2 I = ^ ' 1 1 1 .
Itis no only intended , by this disgraceful systemofvic . mizat , oi ,, to ruin and impoverish tie objects of its ,, »!«* ,, but also to obstruct he pro gresaon of emancipation , and to perpetuate £ P chams winch enslave and fetter the working nm , Phis has mva-ialil y been the plan adopted bv mi-ht and wrong to put down the growing claims ofW and injured humanity . u '" "> The principle upon whi ch this hideous svstem operates is various , though its objects are ever the same . Sometimes it lays its witherinir talons unon its unfortunate victims at midnight-hour , dra ~ s them t C { < ' ' i i
to ttie leion s cell , and locates them manacfed amoni ' the vilest aud most degraded of human beings ; and , before necessary arrangements can be made for a fair and honourable trial , they are forced through a kind of mock-trial , where justice is put to shame , and truth is made to blush for such human arrogance—while humanity shudders at the monstrous proceedings and cruel decisions of such one-sidtd and counterfeit trials , which doom mew to bonds and imprisonment , without the least chance of obtaining counsel , or bare justice . | \ ' >
At another time the same system is carried on more openly , and with apparently more justice ; but under that false appearance lurks a savage spirit , full of rage aud rancour , and thirsting to satiate itself in inflicting its spleen and vengeance upon a brave and noble spirit , that dares assert the right to live , to liberty , aud to ample remuneration for " their labour . By effecting the banishment of such worthy men from their homes and sweet remembrances of affectionate children , they think to rol ) the labourer of his hire , and swamp the movement for Labour ' s regeneration .
. At another time this same system takes another course ; it puts on a face of sorrow , it mimics pity , it affects a Vind and humane feeling . And by this hypocritical and dissimulating policy , endeavours to persuade the good and true to recant their principles —to turn traitors to the cause of freedom and justice , and sell for a morsel of bread , the imperishable rights of labour . In some instances this artful policy has proved effective , but in others it has not . There have been hundreds of true English hearts who would not be so led astray . An innate spirit of independence has induced them to repel with in . dignity the attempt to filch away the ri ghts and privileges of their order , by such mean artifice ; and
where the spirit of low cunning and deceit , has crossed a noble mind , and finds its artful schemes unsuccessful , it begins to lie rather harsh . Then it threatens , tlicn . it rages and endeavours to intimidate , and finding all this useless they cast him off as a pest , a nuisance to society , and one that no respectable employer should employ ; a dangerous man in a shop , who ought to be starved to death if he continues so obstinate a fellow as to go in opposition to his master , and in seeking to elevate the working classes . And thus is he driven away—no one will employ him—the masters set a mark upon him as an innovator , and proscribe his entering their establishments to seek a job of work .
How many I earts have bled , and happy families been severed , through this direful system ? No one can imagine the numbcrg who have fallen a sacrifice to it , and suffered martyrdom for their strenuous adheience to the principles they consider to be dear and of vital importance . This system of victimisation has not been confined to trades' movements alone , but in every other movement for the recovery of the rights of the working classes . Volumes might be filled with accounts of the sad and gloomy results of 'his baneful and destructive system ; but we must confine our attention more particularly ' to cases in connection with trades' movements . And
numerous instances of base and cruel treatment rushes upon our-minds , of the wrongs perpetrated upon unprotected labour by unprincipled employers . Every trade in their local operations have ' had their victims . They know what a frown or a threat of an employer indicates , when excited by the devoteilness of zealous unionists . We could select , imitviduals who have suffered long and keenly for labouring to elevate the condition of their trade . One imiividual ^ wbose name we need notjinention , in 1836—7 took the lead in a very important strike , which continued 13 weeks ; and for the part be took in trades affairs , incurred the hot displeasure of the master
class . He was a sood and . true man , and well qualified for the efficient management ot" trades' unions , And nolily did lie fight the battles of his trade for many years , and , through that career , obtained some glorious victories . And for this , a 3 we have stated , he i ncrred the displeasure of the master class ; and ever since the date alluded to , for upwards of 10 years , he has been the object of the vindictive cruelly of the employers . No one would give him work , and , had it not . been tor the kind interference of a humane friend , lie would have been left in want anil penury . But through . the kind aid of this friend ,
he was enabled io defy the rage and malice of wrong doers . But adversity frowncdupon him , and distress threatened to overwhelm him ; ami instead of receiving support from the men i » whose cause he suffered , they disowned him , some of them attempted to blast ! .. is reputation , by circulating the most gross and groundless calumnies , and thus , what the masters could not effect . Th p . nun , whose battles he fought , and for whose interests he offered himself a sacrifice , accomplished for them . Yes , poor man ! disowned and neglected by his own trade ; has now found an asylum < and teen befriended bv the operatives of Sheffield . '
Another instance of this cruel system occurred in Ktitiiley , in Yorkshire , some time back ; in the case of a young woman , a power loom weaver . 1 « appears the warp ? ' given her'to wcpvc , were tincommonly bad , so much so , that it was impossible for lier to cam a livelihood . She determined tlwr ; --fore to resist this encroachment upon her rights . She did so , and during the time , she was out ,. obtained another seat of work . But her former employer applied for her discharge , which wns conceded . She sought fur another situation , mid succeeded in grttiiig one ; hut , scarcely bad sue commenced to work , when her old employer applied
to have her turned away ; but the gentleman , in whose service she v . 'its tbci ) engaged , objected to obey the mandate of this cruel man , adding , "the young woman must live , and that sin ; must either starve , or expose herself in the streets to get a living . ]> ut this kind of reasoning seemed only to enrage the old employer , and he determined to be revenged upen a helpless woman , for having dared to mend her condition by . honest industry ., He immediately dispatched an inspector with a warrant to apprehend her , she was accordingly dragged away to tlsc court-house , and hurried before a magistrate . The trial was only a mock one , and , in a short tims ,
she was committed to the house of correction for one month . But through the exertion of the men of Kcithley , the case was soon quashed , and the magistrate and roployer were ' put into n terrible fright , expecting that an action would have been entered against them , which would have been done , had uot tbe poverty of the mou prevented them from doing so . We oiler no comment upon this case , it is able of itself to unfold a something relative to the wrongs and sufferings inflicted upon tin : workingclass . This is but bno , out . of ; i gr at number of similar cases , which are suffered to pass with impunity , without being ever brought to light .
Another case is that of a poor man in Manchester-He took an active part iu the National Association , and through that he lias brought upon himself the everlasting hatred and iil-i ' ecling of the employers in that trade . Hut the central committee took up his case , and for months has he hucu supported as n victimized man . Ahoui . three weeks ago he got work at a mill , but just as he had commenced to work , the foreman entered the room , asked him his name ,
and being informed , be was ordered away from the factory , and no employment could be given In such a man as that ; aud tlius he is again , witb almost a broken heart , forced from employment , for nothing in the wide world but for his labouring , in the sincerity of his soul , to leave his fellow creatures better off than they are at present . But he must not lie left to perish ! The dark designs of un eeling employers laust be defeated , ami unprotected , labour shall yet

During the strike of thc tailors of Manchester tha winterbeore last it repeatedly occurred , and it is high time that some inquiry took place . How is it that the advice in the above ca > e , which ou « ht ta i ave armed on SatunJaj morning , did not arrive till the uesday following ? The people of Manchester should demand a reform of their misraana-ed and unaccommodating Post-office .
On 1 ue-day evening Mr Humphries attended a Keeling ot the locksmiths at Wellinhall , for the pur . pose ot explaining the objects of the Association . 1 he roo . capable t . f holdina 300 people , was densely crowded with working men , who were very anxious tu know tbe charac or and mode of operation pursued by the members of the union . Mr Prince , of Weliinhajl , an active member of the Association , and one who lias fallen a victim to the cupidity of his employer on account of the active part , he has taken ia the association , was called to the ch ; iir . He briefly alluded to the object of the meeting , and begged a piitii-nt and attentive hearing to the agent sent down , trom London to advocate the ]> rinclptes of the Na « tional Association , lie should , therefore , without
siiynm any more call upon Mr Humphries , who ebservetl that one great and primary object of tha Association was to promote the interest and enhanca he welfare of the working classes , by associating them in one exteusive and mighty combination . He then showed that the Association was as careful ovec tr . e interests of honourable employers as of thVirowa members ; that they would protect the neli-beiug of upright masters equally with the meii , and that ; whenever ^ any dispute arose between any of theic niemhurs and tueir respective employers , tiie Central Committee took a gentle andconciliatory couisc , and instead n | widening the breach between them , they endeavoured to bring affairs to an amicable and satisfactory termination , and in many instances had been very successful , and employers had . expressed their admiration of the feature ' that characterised the movements of the National Assyeiation . In othsr instances they had not been so successful , and . the
through obstinacy of employers , had been torced to turn manufacturers themselves . Mr Humphries then shuwed samples of goods which the men wera produciuir , and strongly urged upon them the neeessi ' . y of purchasing such things fr ; m the National Association . An excellent spirit was created , ' and the nun of Wellinhall evinced a determination to assist the National Association , in becoming consumers of their Roods . A great desire was manifested to have an agency established there for the sale of gomls , as the \ have no doubt but it would ba well supported . The lecturer was loudly cheered during his remarks , and ai the close a vote ot thanks { , 'Wen . to him for his able address . Tho meeting Lhen quietly broke up . BACUP . —A public meeting was held « t Bacnp on the 12 th inst , which was addressed by Mbsms P . Shackleton , W . Uarker , II . Ilow . mb , and W . l'eel , iiL-ent of tho National Association . The several speakers were loudU cheered throughout thoir
observations . The following resolutions were unanimously agreed ; o : — That in the present depressed state of trndo anythioK sliat would tend to increase the numbers of the uni'inployt d would be highly prejudicial to the jiubitu iiitt-rests . That the demntids of ilic Messrs Aitkin , if conceded by tin ir hands , u ouM have that tendency , and ought , thtvcfort > , to bi > . vesisud . Tiiat the mu-mpt of Messrs Aitkin , arbitrarily and co . ci'uiroly , to iU-privc their hands of the free exercise of eh-. ir . 'egiil rights , is nn unwnmintuble cncroac : imc-nt upon thu freedom of Labour , which should be un dctirl y cherished by ths workini ; classi s as the freedom of trad * is by their employers .. , The present atttmpt , therefore , of these gentlemen to dictate to their hands what union they shall or shall not belong to , is as ridiculous as it ia absurd , and ought , therefore , to bo resisted .
This meeting , thmforc , pledges itsrtf to support tl . o lmndB tlms thrown out of euijiloj-invht as -long as tlicj-, liy a pvaco'ul couiib of conduct , need aud d ^ we it .
