3 It Very Dear Fiuexd , —I read your letter iu la = t week ' s " Star , " nofc onl y with ploasuVe , but with delight ; . aud let mq » uot only tell yon , bat assure you , that there is not a political man in this world whose courage , whose liononr , and whose independence I esteem more than yours . You , like myself , have
suffered a good deal of persecution , for endeavouring to relieve your countrymen from oppression and slavery ; and I trust that all men who profess to emancipate the down-trodden slaves will now direct their attention to the present state . of Europe . The " Times" tells us ~ and many French newspapers tell us ^ fhat in a short time there vill . be a revolntion in France , and that Russia , Austria , and Prussia ; are preparing to take part in it ' " '" " ";
jly'dear G'HiGGras , must it" not convince every man of sound mind , that if the . working classes ' were united the voice of knowledge would silence the cannon ' s roar 1 But , what most you . tibink- of the Democratic feeling of fhe working inen of London , when yon learn that . over a hundred thousand were sworn in s ' p ^ oial-cpnstaDJies on tie 10 th of April , 1818 ; and . thafra number of theui were invited to a grand'jjjainquet , and entertained by the oppressors of the poor ! and the present President TlfjFraUttB , who -flaw - ^ nth-Ma- eagles to that CWHltiy'to establish Kepublicanism , was " ohe
tifjhe . special-constables ; npoh that occasion ? And ; " " has now destroyed ? Republicanism . I wish to God we had a few-men in England and Ireland as independent , as courageous , and as honourable as Paibick O'Higgins ; and then , we would not have a drunkard , » pauper , a criminal , or a coward in the land . Good . Go » ,. O'Higgiss , does it not make jour Hood tun cold , as it does vxxo . % to see the daily accounts of the poor unwilgng idlers in Ireland , who are obliged to abandon the land of their forefathers , and fly to some foreign land , to sigh o ' er the departed liberty Of their country ? >
You remember what a leader of the people O'COSSEIX was—how he elevated , not the poor , but himself , by living and luxuriating upon their credulity ; and I highly approve of your comment upon his treatment of Shakman Ceawpobd . I nave known Siiabmajj Cbaw-I 0 ED for now nearly twenty years ; and if I was told to put my hand upon the most honourable man in the house of Commons , both a 9 a politician , a landlord , a father , a husband , and a master , I would put it upon Shabman CIhawfoed ; and yet you see how he was abused by the patriotic , virtuous , honourable , and independent Dahiei . O'Cohzsell .
You are perfectly correct in your comment upon my letter ; and I read your letter three times over , not only with p leasure but with pride ; but , then , mark this : I "had it upon the very best authority , that some of the poor gentlemen , who are too proud to work , and too poor to live without wages , were actually propounding some plan to lead the poor , unarmed / and undisciplined English people into a revolution ; and perhaps yon are not aware of what an English gentleman , who was in the French
Revolution , told me should be his course if he could get up a revolution in this country . He ca « ed at . my house after the Trench Revolution , and told ine he was prepared to get up a revolution in England . L said , * Very well . Of course , if you are the promoter yon will take the command , and be in the front rank ? '' " Oh , no , " he replied , « a leader should alwayBbe in the rear in safety " —so I turned upon my heel , and said , " Go about your business . "
Now , my dear 0 mQGiss , you are perfectly aware that when there is a physical force revolution , thai the last shot fired constitutes . the victors trophy ; and I cannot give yon a stronger instance than the course pursued by the Reformers- —that is , the middle class Ref ormers—when the Reform Bill was to be carried ; they carried the King ' s portrait about , with an executioner to cut his head off ; they burned Bristol , Nottingham Castle , and other places ; and as soon as the Reform BUI was carried , five Welchmen were transported , the Irish Coercion Bill teas carried , and the bloodiest and most tyrannical laws were enacted .
' Now does not this show you , that a party / Seeking for power will have recourse to any means to secure power ? and as eooh as the power is achieved , they will then establish oppression . My dear O'HiGGixs , you have been imprisoned for seeking to destroy tyranny , and so have I ; and we both bore our incarceration calmly , and would not accept liberty to abandon oar principles . And again I wquld implore and entreat the English people to look to mental , and not to physical power , as the means of releasing themselves from degradation and slavery .
I remain , my dear O'Higgejs , Tour most Sincere and faithful i Friend and " Countryman , I Feargus O'Connob

That the imprisonment of Messrs . Ml , Holland , and Gathard , in Oxford Castle , for the costs incurred in the Minster Lovel case by Mr .

TO FEARGUS O'COXXOR , ESQ ., M . P . Most Faithful Fhiesd am > LBAnEB , —In looking over the business done at the . Conference , it gave me great satisfaction at the seeming unanimity of feeling which seemed to exist , -when , ail at once , the would-be leaders of the people threw off the mask of . deceit and hypocrisy , and once more begun to scatter . the seed of strife and discord in the Chartist ranks , vchich I hope the good sense of the Chartist party throughout tbe country will put a stop to . Bear sir , it makes my pulse beat quick , and my heart gronr sick , to see the devil ambition show his clovenfoot so often , and attempt to blaBt the character " of Mr . O'Connor ,, . who , as -. Mr . Wheeler asserts " , has " many . thousand admirers in London . " I thank Mr . Wheeler for the assertion , and will heg leave to add in the country
, also ; and J , as one , cannot refrain from expressing my feeling of disgust . at the meanness resorted to to turn every , word ofilr . O'Connor ' s into high treason . It is not for the Convention to condemn the acts of any , leader , in my humble opinion—hut the country ; atlarge " ; but they are the prosecutor , judge , and jury , one and all combined . In my opinion , they , are more tyrannical than any Whig government was in this country . As to what Mr . O'Connor Baid with regard to the national hatred there existed between . England and France , it is natural for me to think , after . the treachery and cruelty there has been practised towards that country , and especially' towards that party possessing
physical power at this moment—that there exists a feeling of iealousy towards this country , but not with the democratic party of Faance . This , I think , is the construction Mr . O'Connor intended to put upon his letter to the people of this country . Without , shedding one drop of blood , if the working class of this country would strictly Mow the advice of Mr . O ' Connor , and assist him in getting our Social Rights , with less talk about them by us , the Land , which ia our birthright , would speedily bo in our possession . I remain , air , One of your faithful Old Guards , Ockbrooi , April 15 tb . Robebi < Jrbgo .

PfiOTECTIOJJEST DEMONSTRATION IN EDINBURGH . The long-talked-of dinner under the auspices of the Scotch Protection Society , came ' off in the Music-hall , Edinburgh , on Tuesday evening . About seven hundred persons dined , and a considerably greater number would ( it was said ) hare done so had it been possible to obtain tickets . Between two and three hundred gentlemen were present as spectators in the gallery , while on the platform behind the chairman there might be about as many ladies ; The Earl of Eglintoun occupied the Chair , andLqrd John Scotfc ,. M . P ., discharged the duties of croupier . —The routine toa 3 ts having been disposed of the noble chairman proposed " The Protectionist cause , and the health of Lord Stanley
its leader . " The noble lord conoluded a speech of considerable length amidst loud cheers . —SheriffMlison , in the course of a long speech proposed"TheHouse of Lords . " —The toast was responded to with loud cheere . —Lord Lauderdale briefly acknowledged the compliment . —Professor Aytoun proposed " The House of Commons , and the Health of Mr . Disraeli . " ( Loud cheers . )—Mr . Christopher , M . P ., after regretting the absence of Mr . Disraeli on the occasion , acknowledged the compliment ; and , in alluding to the : failure of Lord - Stanley - to form a Cabinet , said it vr 4 a bwing to several adverse circumstances , to which he would allude . It must be remembered that of that party there are only one or two who were ever in office before : and
the present government cunningly devised their mode of resignation at a time when not only the Mutiny BUI was unread in the House of Commons , bnt when not a single sum of money . was . voted to CMrv on the government of the country , and when Sir J- Graham , stepping irom the high position he was entitl ed to assume , and once assumed , aa the constitutional adriser of a constitutional Sovereign , counkeueoUhe army tomutiby and . the people . of Ireland tcF rebel if ine identical measures were carried which Lord Stanley would have felt it his duty to propose . ( Hear , hear . ) In these
circumstances _ it was Lord Stanley ' s duty to consider what security he had for the safety of the sovereign and of the country if he had assumed the reigns of government . ( Loud cheers . ) There is no donbt whatever that , since , these circumstances have been in a great measure removed by the progress of the session , if ever again that noble lord should be called to place himself at the head of the councils of the sovereign , he would be successful in forming an administration . ( Loud applause . ) Yarious toasts followed , such as The Tenant Farmers , " " Ships , Colonies , and Commerce , " and the meeting separated at twelve o clock .

THE EXHIBITION . Season Tickets . —In consequence of the immense demand for tickets of admission for the opening ( no less than 10 , 000 having been applied for on Wednesday ) the Executive committee decied that from Thursday morning the price should be increased by a guinea each , in the hope that this addition to the charge would limit tbe number of visitors to some * thing like what the arrangements originally contemplated would accommodate . The demand for tickets on Thursday , notwithstanding the increase of price , was still considerable .
The Model Fhioaie fob the Serpentine . —The model of a twenty-gun frigate has been bnilt in the Dockyard , Woolwich , and is now ready for rigging . This beautiful little craft is thirty-eigbt feet long , and of twenty-stt tons burthen , and will befitted and rigged , even to the minutest detail , as one of the frigates in her Majesty ' s service .

ADDRESS OP ; THE EXECUTIVE .. eOMMITTEE OF . THE NATIONAL CHARTER ASSOCIATIOJf TO THE PEOPLE . - Feliow ^ Countrymen !—The time for action—for calm , thoughtful , energetic action , ^ as arrived . The Programme adopted by tHe National Convention must be carried ' but , step oy step ; and we now direct .. your attention to" the first practical measure we can adopir-the National Petition . Clause 3 of the . first section of the Programme runs as follows : —
.. £ ?? * nat ? P 6 tiiion for ' *» Charter be pregented to parliament , such petition to be prepared on the following . p > n :-Simultaneous meetings for passing the petition to be held in every town or borough where practicable . At such meetings two tellers to he appointed to count the numbers present ; the petition , together with a declaration affirming the numbers in favour of such petition to be signed by the tellers , and the chairman of the meeting . . . .
We , therefore , now call on you to hold wellprepared and efficient meetings , as above alluded to , as it is requisite that a Petition to Parliament should be presented before the session . closes . We are aware ofthe prejudice against , petitioning , —it is , therefore , that a , detailed , plan of petitioning has not been adopted , but the easy method of petitioning , en masse , by aggregate meetings . We implore you not to let prejudice stand in your way ; it is decided that the queBtion of the Charter shall be brought forward in the House . The Programme of the Convention has now been read by all sections of the
community ; the . country knows that public meetings have been summoned by that Convention for the purpose . It is , therefore , necessary that such meetings should be held . -It is most important that those meetings should be sufficiently general . to give weight and dignity to our cause j—again , shall the motion for the Charter in the House be merely supported by an individual voice , or shall it be backed by an expression of popular will ? At a time' vthea minor franchise' mfeasures are coming before Parliament , shall ours , the greatest , the most important of all , be the only one that is not urged with adequate voice and power %
Recollect that the petition is expected—the public knows that the Convention decided thus ; these meetings are looked forward toif , from . any little' prejudice , you abstain from holding ftem , and holding them efficiently , you cast a stigma oh your delegates , you create a belief in your weakness- ^ -a weakness which does not exist . The power of your caused is engaged in the measure . We , therefore , now summon you to hold public meetings throughout the country , on the plan proposed by the Convention—such meetings to take place during the month of May . Do not shrink , in any place , from holding meetings , -from the belief that their numbers may not be large . Hold them wherever yon can—let the numbers in favour of the Charter be well verified , and send the petitions up to us" as soon as passed .
niL ¦• ••¦ — _ . * These meetings will be the first opportunity for the aggregate expression of your views since the issue © f the Programme by the Convention . As such , they are neceasary on this ground alone ; and , since a new pha se of our movement will be developed from the basis laid by that assembly , it is requisite that a national gathering of Democrac y should give the impulse to our renewed and improved agitation . Another duty also devolves on you—that agitation requires funds . We refer you to the resolution of the Convention relative to a national subscription of
threepence from every professing Democrat Surely many ; could give more—let all give " what they can . One shilling each from a million men would enable us to carry the Charter .- That money is wanted , and wanted NOWi if you wish to be prepared for the future . Thatmoneyis wanted for you—not for our . selves—we are your gratuitous servants—for your cause—for the cause of all mankind . It is our aim to guide the Chartist
movement through , the dangers of the approaching time—with calm dignity—gathering strength from converted mind , and baffling opposition by disarming prejudice . We / will have no stormy broil—no dangerous demonstration , that may be used to advantage by our enemies ; for the turning-point of our movement is at hand—class government is falling of its own corruption alienating its own supporters by its errora . They shallnot father their Biha on our ahonlders .
We caution you not to . listen to the idle tales afloat , relative to conspiracies and insurrections—weak devices of the enemy , to ensnare unwary friends , and distance wavering allieB .. - _ :.. ( - ' . . ... ¦ - ¦ . : Wecaution you not to follow any rash . jmU vice ^ -it is your calmness , more than your violence , thatjpur enemies fear . Give us the means , and this summer shall
see ; ? u ch anadvance in Chartist progress , such ah increase in Chartist numbers , as have not been witaessed yet . We are not of those ^ who promise largely—but we have calculated our strength , we have counted the elements of democracy that are in existence—and we feel , we know , that we can work them np , if you supply us with the means ; " - Signed on behalf of the Committee ,
, ; John Arnott , GeneralSecretary . Mr . Reynblda having voluntered to attend at a deputation from the Executive at the public meeting to be held at thVPhcenix . Tavern , Ratcliffecross , on Tuesday evening next , the Committee adjourned to Wednesday evening , April § Pth .. , . N . B .
