      Otendkk Radical Association . —This Association is doing very well , and has lately commenced to hold discussions on various subjects . The following are a list of questions to be discussed , the first having been disposed of , viz .: — " "What is the cause of the nation's distress ?

After the doth was withdrawn , Mr . H . Rawson was unanimously called to the chair ,

      and opened the bnsiness of the evening by a neat speech , in wiieh he remarked tkat the liberality of the proprietor was even greater than the shareholders had any just right to expect , as he had only given a guarantee for five per cent . ; but that he had caused to be placed in his hands what would pay to each person JO per cent ., and he was most anxious to pay it over to them , if they would only call upon him for it Mr . Robert "Wilkinson -rose to propose the first toast— " The Liberty of the Press , " and prefaced it hv some shrewd and well-directed remarks ih

      reference to those authors who had been the best writers in defence of the liberty of the people , commencing with Junius , Leigh Hunt , Cobbett , and others . The next toast was proposed by Mr . T . Cliff , and ably supported by Mr . "William Thornton , with his asual ¦ jrannsh and pathos that he manifests on all subjects in which he takes delig kt , and © oBcluded fey reading the toast— " Feargus O'Connor , Esq . the proprietor of the Northern , Star , and may he still continue the undaunted advocate of the people ' s rights , so as to secure to himself in , perpetuity the confidence and esteem of the wise , the virtuous , and the good . " Drank standing . Mr . Tetley proposed " The Rev . "Km . Hill , editor of the Northern Star , and

      Bronterre O'Brien , Esq . a writer in it : may they ever advocate truth for the love of it , fighting tie battles of liberty against the advocates of tyranny ad oppression . " Drunk with the same honours . Mr . Cliff then gave " The shareholders in the Northern . Star ; and may the interest which has already been awarded to them prove a spur to further exertions in the good old cause of Radicalism , and be hailed as the harbinger of a , future and more complete triumph . " Mr . Rawson supported this , and was followed up by Mr . "Wilkinson , who gave a very

      flattering account of the present prospects of the Sior ; and also expressed , at the same time , an encomium on the Leeds Times , for its able advocacy of the people's cause . After this , Mr . Cliff moved a rote of thanks to Charles Hooton , Esq ., editor of the Leeds Tiiua , which was seconded by Mr . Tetley , and carried unanimously . The worthy host and hostess were highly complimented by the Chairman for their -liberal conduct in providing so abundantly for the occasion , and the excellent cooking they had displayed ; after which their healths were drunk . A vote of thanis was moved to the

      Chairnan ; and the meeting separated in good order , each being well pleased with the evening ' s entertainment ¦ BBOTHEBLT LOTB , OB HOW TO OBTAIN Ksowledob . —Acquisitiveness is the darling attribute of some men , and , not nnfrequentiy , rules predominant in the breast of » dd individuals , even in tiie same family . Two brothers , of the name of Smith , one of them residing in the town , and the other at Bradford , and both of them endeavouring to obtain wealth by the most easy and ready methods the present circumstances of society will ad ntit of , have recently "h * A an encounter with each other before the magistrates . The gentleman who

      redoes in Bradford , and carries on bnsiness there , was very desirous of obtaining a knowledge of file principlei and working ? of a certain , machine , in the possession of Ms brother , who reside * in this ttnra ; and , "being acquainted with the premises , he drew out a plan and particulars of the precise situation in which this machine was placed , and put them into the hands of an individual whom he had engaged for that purpose , directing him to enter the premises by night , and thus to steal away the patent oght of the nadane . - On the watchman going his rounds , he heard , or fancied ,- that he had heard some one about the premises , but could net discover who or what : tut , on" leaving the watch in the

      morning , he communicated the circumstance to his e » plojer , which caused the master . to be on file alert , and to stop up , looking out of the chamber * TBdow , after the watch was gone . The watchsnatf * order and practice was always to leave the gates unlocked when he left the watchin the morning . Shortly after tins * rush was made in at the gates , which , on the master percemng , he prepared himself for down stairs , and went'in search of the delinquent ; and , on entering the plhjce . where the machine was , he there found a . person with his paper and apparatus , all in full . order , taking the nuchina . On perceiving this , the man . was seized , and carried off to the drawing-room of Mr . Fraser , commonly called the " lock-up , " and there kept m durance rSe . uatfl » notice «*» « mt to Jir .

The Church was crowded to excess ; dissenters in abundance had repaired thither , to listen to the bold and excentric anathematiser .

The collection at the close of the sermon amounted to £ 51 . The morning's collection was £ 17 , and the evening ' s £ 14 .

      - Something New . —The Tories in their attachment to their new name have lost no opportunity of blazoning it before the eyes of the public . The walls of Bradford , during the week , have been labelled with blue placards , announcing that " the Bradford Juvenile Conservatives" will dine together at the Nag ' s Head Inn , on Fr iday , May the 5 tb , and some of the more impudent of their numbers have been canvassing the town for subscriptions to their baby guzzle ; babies only and boys under the age of eighteem , are to be admitted .

It is reported that poor " Sandy" was go terrified at the supposed visit of a certain , black gentleman some time ago , as to alarm the whole neighbourhood in which he resided . - ' .

Mr . Brierley stated that on the night in question he Cilled with Roberts at the above named house , abouta quarter pasi ten o'clock , and requested the company to separate , which , they all seemed ; willing to do , with the exception of- " the defendant , who said he would not go till he p leased , as he did not care for either the constables or magistrates . The defendant denied that be was drunk , and declared that he had not used the language attributed to him .

      He called as a witness , Richard Harris , who stated that he came from Pembroke , in South "Wales . This witness deposed that Mr . Brierley had used a good deal of / " sauce" to the defendant . Mr . Maude . —What do you mean by " sauce , " iriy ra , an ? "Witness , why , when Thomas Hoimes was lighting his pipe , the constable knocked his head against the chimney side , and pushed him about . Mr . Maude ; — "Well my good fellow , I think that ' s more like " basting" than sauce "—( laughter . ) Now you have stated that Mr , Brierley sauced the prisoner by which I suppose you mean , he made use of improperExpressions , we therefore want you to tell us what he said

      The witness fenced a little with the question , ; but would not be induced to give a direct answer ; Mr . Maude . —Mr . Brierley has denied what you say | and we believe he would be sorry to speak anything but the truth , we want you to do the same .. Witness . —lhas done , I has spoke the truth . Mr . Maude ; —But you must tell the whole truth , and if you will not do that , you niay stand down . —Mr . Brierley said , he always used his best endeavours to get the people out quietly , and with as little disturbance

      as possible . —Roberts having been sworn as to the truth of the complainant ' s statement , the defendant was ordered to pay 14 s ., penalty and costs . Defendant . -If I had been stopped on the highway , I should then had a chance . Mr . Maude . —Why , do you mean to say you would rob somebody ? II you do , there is a law for that as well as drunkenness . Defendant . —I mean to say it's a dead robbery , and it ' s no use bringing witnesses or anybody else here . The defendant then left the box , muttering something to himself .

      HUDDELRSFIEXS . Adjourned Meeting of Guardians . — On Monday next the Huddersfield adjourned meeting of the guardians takes place at eleven o'clock in the forenoon . Feargus O'Connor , Esq ., will be again in attendance to aid is the great and good work . The meeting will he an open one . The Whigs are whispering that constables will-be , in attendance , but a majority of the guardians are determined to meet without a body guard , particularly as a number of disputed returns are to be settled . They

      remember that a few weeks ago , some who came to claim their seats were kept in the street , while their cases were being settled within ; thus rendering the elections a mere farce—thus insulting the ratepayers , perverting justice , and taxing us with wages of idle men , who ought either to be attending their own business , or seeing that justice was being done them at the meeting . We must stop both their ways and their interruption , and they must be made to understand that it will be more honourable to lay aside little brief authority then , and on all such occasions .

      Hand-Loom Weavers .- A communication from the hand-loom weavers commission has been received at Huddersfield , and it is expected that evidence will betakes on that subject , not . only there , but throughout the manufacturing , districts . Are the weavers all ready ? Have they committees in every town and village in the West Riding ? If they have not they are much to blame ; as a general and clear showing of the miserable state of that body here , in Lancashire , in London , in Ireland , and in Scotland , must convince . any human being that a change must take place , or that dreadful consequences must result . At Huddersfield , a meeting of the hand-loom weavers and their friends , takes place at the New Inn , on the evening of Tuesday next , at seven o ' clock . It is hoped that other towns are also prepared .

      Mr . Thomas Kaye , who was elected guardian ofHepworth , upon his pledge to oppose the enforcement of the law , has in every case voted for . it 3 enforcement . The Graveship of Holme h& « obtained the appellation of the Bastile country , and the Omnibus that runs beiween there and Huddersfield , is called the Bastile Mail . Blessings of Church Rates . —On Tuesday last , a distraint was made upon the property of two of the Society of Friends , not 200 miles from Mould Green , for the payment of the Church Rates , which they , of coarse , had refused to pay ;

      and owing either to the " unsullied and pure justice , " and wise discretj < i ^ © n one part ot the Bench , or the inexperience and immature judgment of tke other , or the neglect of the Clerk , the Bailiffs , or the Churchwardens , or of all of them , fell into error , and actually made a distraint upon one person , a clog and patten maker , shoe dealer , &c , for eight shillings and three-halfpence , instead of eightpenee three-farthings , and took away three pairs of ladie ? boots , value £ 1 2 s ., anc from the other , rate 4 s . 9 d ., 13 s . 9 d . in sugar , all of which they took to neighbouring public house ftfr sale . When the Churchwarden began to remonstrate with the Bailiffs , and say they had done wrong , the Bailiff declared he was right , and the fault

      must have been in the Clerk , or the Magistrates : the Churchwarden declared he was right , for he had explained the thing to the Magistrates , and displayed his book , containing the above items . Not meeting customers to suit their prices , the spoil was carried off by a noted drummer , in full style , to the Bull and Mouth Inn , Huddersfield , where he thought he could dispose of the boots , and could apply the sugar to his own coffee . These £ Te nice pickings , but the Broad Brims care very little about it , as their friends in London will indemnify them . " Would to God they had their eyes open , and would net suffer themselves and their friends to be robbed in this way by a set of careless officers and bad laws . " . ' ¦ - , -

Harvey , Parker , Scales , Cruickshank , Bayldon , Whiteley ,

      and IS ewberry , addressed . Resolutions were passed , to the effect that it was the duty of every British subject to seek the total and immediate termination of file cruel system of apprenticeship in our colonies ; also a vote of thanks to Sir George Strickland , and their regret that Lord Morpeth had disappointed the expectations of his most zealous friends , by voting against the measure * The meeting , which was numerous and enthusiastic , did not separate until eleven o'clock .

      DEWSBUBV . Petty Sessions . - On "Wednesday last , George Greenwood , of Gelder Lane , was brought before the magistrates J . Ingham and John Haigh , Esqs ., at Dewsbury , charged with stealing a horse , the property of Mr . Bolding / of Gelder-lane . The prisoner was committed to York to take his trial next assizes . Thomas Fozard , clothier , of Batley-Carr , was also brought before the bench for ill usage to his wife and neglecting his family . It appeared that Fozard had been to fetch the constable to take Mb wife to the asylum , but it was proved that the wife wa * in great distress , and the surgeon ' s opinion was that the woman ' s insanity had been caused by ill treatment . Fozard was therefore apprehended and committed to the Wakefield House of Correction

      for one month for such ill treatment . ' Factories . "— -We understand that a public meeting on this subject is to he holden in the Philosophical Hall this evening . We hope the men of Huddersfield will shew themselves in round numbers . Embezzlement . —On Wednesday week , when the parents of the children who attend the Primitive Methodist Sunday Schocl , Dawgreen , attended for the purpose of withdrawing the money which ' had been deposited weekly , £ reat was their surprise and astonishment , at no one attending to" pay them . L pon further enquiry , it was found that there was only £ 43 in the hands of the treasurer towards der fraying £ 130 ,. which had been deposited in various sums from eighteen-pence to £ 18 ..

      KEIGHLEV . Sermons . —On Sunday last on the occasion of the re-opening of the Lord's church , ih "" King-8 treet , Ktighley , two sermons were preached by , the Ret . W . Hill , from Hull , in the morning , on the true nature of the' human soul , and its connection with the spiritual world , " and in the afternoon , '' on the dpctrinen of redemption and salvation , " On noth occasions the church was filled , but in the afternoon it was crowded to excels * The importance of the subjects commanded the most implicit attention on the part of the congregation , and a great effect was evidently produced by the siinple , but impressive and thoroughly argumentative manner in which thene important matters were handled by the . preacher .

      The forenoon ' -s discourse might more properly be considered a lecture than a sermon . It embraced a full consideration of all the objections urged by materialist * of every grade against the existence of spirit , and the immateriality of the soul . It also exposed other misconceptions of a more popular character upon this suhject . The motto of the discourse was the very appropriate words from the 8 th . Psalm , " W hat is man ? " The afternoon service was unusually long , being extended from a quarter past two o ' clock , till after five— : the eermon occupying nearly two hours in the delivery ; during which long period the congregation manifested the most marked attention , though they were so closely packed as to render the heat excessively oppressive . Collections were made after each service , in aid of the trust

Acland ' s Visit to RociiDAtE .- ^ This gentleman has been here to defend the Poor Law Amendr men t Act against all objections , and to prove it an impartial ; benevolent , and hnmane enactment . With respect to the qnalittcations of this gentleman , nothing more need be said , than'that the bul standing in need of measureless impudence , insolence , and petulance , on the part of its advocates , he is perfectly equipped with ( ill these msch-needed endowments . He was , however , very well met in discussing the meastire ^ and he failed in every instance to establish his position . The discussion occupied two nights .

      Monday night the 23 rd , and Friday night the 27 " th tilt . The importance of the discussion consisted in its testing the public feeling . ' : The opinion of the working classes and the Radicals is well known , and stood in need ef no such circumstance as this to manifest it . Bat the importance of the discusHion consisted in its shewing up the Whigs , and in dragging to broad , open daylight their opinion upon this"taeasure . Ana for once ^ their usual cunning forsook them , and they manifested most clearly and unequivocally ,-but certainly most imprudently , their ardent attachment to this bill . In any other point of new the discussion , was comparatively of no mpment ; the demerits of the bill being beyond all discussion . The

      working cjasses have long since made up their minds on the subjectfrom a knowledge of its workings . The Radicals here detest both , the bill and all who advocate it .,: They conclude , and very justly too * that those whaholH with the bill , be they of what party they mnyviare their bitterest enemies . They know it is intended to lpwer wages , and to bring the workers to coarser food . They ; have , therefore , on all occasions , given vent to their opinions and feelings most openly aad unsparingly , -f his opinion of theirs is so well known , that the Whigs have never before dared to say any thing in favour of the Poor Law ArnendmentiAct , except when parioured-together , or sitting in close committee . So convinced were they

      of its unpop ? uarity , that their candidate at the late elections was obliged to declare Wmself opposed to theintroducrion of itinto the maiiufacturibg districts , and also ^ that if he found it not to work well in the farming districts he would vote forits total repeali The Tories , for the very same reason , were Haming Repealers . Repeal'of the Pojf LawXihendmeM jj et ! No Bastile . ' No . Skilly I was all their cry . The Whig * here were considered to * be of a better breed than many Whigs ; , but- Mr . Acland ' a visit has torn off the mask . It has stripped the wolf of ita sheep's clothing . It has unkennellied tile badger and shewn him up . 'to ^ ^ a fair openi iighfT It ; has exposed the sneakilis' . mean . nnnnnirinJuH . » m ) / lirkw faotitm

      in its true colour . At tho m . etings the Whigs mastered very well . There were there many of the most influential of their party ; and they manifested ' must unequivocally their ; ardent love of this bill . Theeyes of the people are now opened ; the film is removed ; the" Whigs are exposed ; their hypocrisy is made manifest ; and their ; hidden lore of cnielty and contempt for the people has risen to the iurface ; We now know fully who we have to . deal with , and what we have to do . Hengefortb , there in not , there cannot be , any bond OPtmlbri between the R . adicals > jand the WMgs of Rochdale . The thread is cut , and the Whigs have themselves to blame for this sebaration .

      ltis worthy of notice , that Mr . Acland-mschallenged to the public discasnion of the merits or demerits ;' of the New Poor Law , by a yiotingmin in : Ws-audience , on condition that the proceedaof the house shonld be givento ^ som < i ^ charitableinstiiutibrii .
