I , have already r « cemm « nd « d the ' strait-waiitcoat' of public censure , with the addition of shaving and blistering his head , te which I wonld now add copious and frequent
draughts of vinegar , which he may have for nothing , by reading the columns of theNoBTWBN Stab , or by apply , tngat the office of . the Land Company ,, or from any of the ' shareholders , who ; I am certain , will supply him with such a quantity , on the . same terms , that be mey , if he will , absolutely'drink till he bursts ; ' a consumationduvontly to be wished . This week he is ragihg ! Mr O'Connor is stated to be the * prince of quacks '—he is compared to ' a maddened asp . ' The < mad editor of the' Dispatch , viewing . everything through a morbid modium . imagines everybody else mad as well as himself * just like the drunken editor of ft ; certain newspaper , who fancied he saw another drunken editor making faces at him behind bis desk , when he magnanimously fiongJbe inkstand through the window , in a vain attempt , to
break tho head of the visionary , intruder ! It Is , ein . cerely to be -hoped that henceforth Mr O'Connor will treat the barking of such a ¦ ' canine ? crew as the Dh . patch , and his ; rabid coadjutors , with silent . contempt . And 1 would suggest to every shareholder , that in gratitudefor the service rendered to the Land movement by thole sympathisers with the people , thaMhty apply a portion of the 'interest' of their money , which the Dis . patch enquires about , towards tho purchase of as many 1 tin kettUs ' as . wlllbB sufficient to adorn each of their tails , and then I would set them down and let them have a fair race forthetr lives . As for the Dispatch , as I havo a particularly tender , regard forhim . I would start him at Beerhaven , in Ireland , and , let him , run to Drogheda . if he could ; he should have the last cur .

sebeme to divert the attention of the working olaBiei from the only mode of relief at present within their reach ; and although we have seen the spirit « f juit indigSatioH fairly rouwd against the conspirators , yet we ought not toiest satisfied with votes of confidence in Mr O'Connor and the directors of the National Land Campany . I would ther « for »» ngge » t , that every sharkholder who has full confidence in Mr O'Coanor ' e Laud Flan , and in the National Land and Labour Bank , and who can afford to subscribe five , ten , or twenty shillings , or any other amount , should at once adopt the resolution and do so . As it does appear to me that the forwarding ( as we may fairly calcalate cenld be done by the above tuggeetloa being taken up with spirit ) the sum of five to ten thousand pounds iteming would do more to substantiate our coafldence in the Land , Flan and in its conductor , and to oiltoce its opponents , than of the whole of the 40 , 000 tharshelders , ( good at that may be in itself ) pafltfag or agreeing to votes of confidence in Mr O'Cennor and tbs principles of the Land Company .
Sir , la Nswcastlfrupon . Tyn * , at a very large meetlag of , the shareholders of this branch , a vote of confidence In Mr O'Cennor was fully and sincerely ( I believe ) awarded that gen tlemen ; but , sir , it is not our intention to rest eontented with tost . ' We intend , by eviry means , to aasist in railing money for the Bank . There has been sent from this branch , by tie paid-up shareholders alone , by the payments of « d ,, Is ., and 2 s . weekly , nearly £ 20 . ; and it is fully expected that the members of the Banking , Club will be much more numerous . I only allude to this to show what can be done by snail contributions , and do hope the more wealthy of the sharekoldtrs will come boldly forward and support this groat lever of tbeLsnd Scb . » at 8 ~ vki . < ths Bank .
Sir , in conclusion , I cannet but reiterate the oplnlsn often exaressed to the members' of'this branoh , that in aiding aud asBistiag the Baik , in connexion with the Land Company , we , the nniooated vshareholders are ' killing two birds with oa » stone . ' ? ifirst , the money so sent , and bearing interest at £ 4 . cent , answers ' all the purposes of a Savings'Bank , la whieh the accumulated capital can be m * ds aVailable whenev ' orth * time arrives for alloottioD , and thus prevent the necessity , of a loan from the Company ; SecoBdly , it ought to be borne in mind , that the more sent up to the Bank , the more
speedily will land be purchased , and thus faclllte ^ ethe cbanoes of location . This is really the cause of the paid ' up shareholder , and 1 hope that they will all see thai the best and strongest vote of confidence they can confer on Mr O'Connor an * the principles of that most ex . cellent and bumttie schemewhioh owes its origin to that gentleman^—tne" National Land Oompany- ^ is by adoptlri 8 the above suggesMOnV !

' ' : '' Fribnds ^—The time his ' arrived when every individual has adutr to perform , how ever humble his abilities may be . Our country " may boast of tha greatest wealth , talsnt , perseverance , and industry ; add yet , at the same time , is cursed with the greatest ameuntof destitution , poterty and crime . Why ia this ? Bectuso the millions have not been represented , arid the law * which the few , who lord it ovei
the many , have made , have been for the benefit and aggrandisement of themselves . One » f the greatest precepts laid down by Chrisf , was that til men ' Bhould love one another , and do unto others as they would they should do unto them , We . would ask , are these doctrines ever thought of by those who appoint commissioners to study the siaa and strength of stomachs of those who , after a long life , of toil , are obliged to seek refuge in the bastiif , where the husband is torn from his wife , andthg children separated from their parents , and this , too , in the land whioh is the envy and adairation of sur . rounding nations .
But ' you . the men of Nottingham , have done mow than all England besides , ( not that the intentions of those who struggled in the same cause , were nod equally sincere ) , butthat you were the most fortunate . You have returned to Parliament the Bright star of freedom- ' withyou it rests whether he is to stay there oc not ; and it is on this ground we are induced io step forward . , If you intend him to be the people ' s repreaentativa in Parliament , ( for be assured this Parliament cannot last long ) itis . necessary that you begin to e ^ t * . blisa your Chartist associations , and endeavour to raise subscriptions for the purpose of defraying tb « necessary expenses that-must occur , or to rends assistance wherever it may be needed . And now wa
have placed Mr O'Connor in Parliament we must support him ; for onus depends whether or not any tmngis tobe don e for the commuaity ? If we do ourdutyto Mr O'Connor , he willprovea host in the Ummonf House of Parliament . But let us remind Su . he ' isoBl ^ one man , and unless he is supported > m without , every vile means will be resorted to , to crush . him . . ; ' J 3 (?^* t » > in the immediate nei ghbourhood of Not tingham , overS OOOmembera of the Land Company , J j iIlts one determination to establish * fund sufficient to meet all emergencies . Forin « ataricB—if 3 , 000 subscribers would pay one penny pet week for one year , it would amount to £ 650 , whico sum , being placed in-the Land and Labaur Bank at
four per cent ., would produce £ 26 per annum , which would \ cover the local expensea , and always leaves sumoient sum in hand . But it is quite useless writing or talking unlea the members themselves are alive to their " own interesls . ^ It is no use for any one or anysetofmea sacrificing their time and exertions , if the people - < re not yot prepared to liberate themselves . It is well known that—He that would be free , himself must strike the blow . And , therefore , we againcallonthe Land members to render us all the assistance they can , so that vra may be prepared for coming events ; and being prepared ^ is the first step to victory . As it will be ner 'cessary "to strengthen Mr O'Connor in hw great
uadertaking , by placing : as many tried friends of the pwple by hiaside in the next Parliament , so itis no « our duty to do all in our power to strengthen the cause . Therejia now a committee in existence , to carry out the O'Connor Defence Funds , which will sit every Monday evening , for the purpose of receiving subscriptions , at the Seven Stars , Barker-gate . The following persons are appointed to receive subscriptions : —Mr Trueman , Narrow-marsh ; Mr John Mosiey , Marsh ; Mr Roper , Newcastle-street ; Me Broadhead , East-street ; Mr Bailey , Slenton ; Mr Talbot , Gtoje-gate ; Mr Mott , Goose-gate .

But a labour field has been opened for the men , as they can at all tines have work on the bartist ooleny at Lowbands , The labourers are . determined to break ap this infcmous conspiracy of one class againat another .
