HUMAN LIFE . "DROBABL Y no theory can come more welcome X . to the human mind than the one which establishes , on good grounds , a hope for prolonged existence ; for , notwithstanding the trials , vexations , and diffioultiea inoident to this life , the love of life increases with our years ; it is one of the innate principles of our nature , and cannot be explained away by any ot the subtleties of the sophist , nor overcome by any amused dignity derived from a false philosophy . There are toany of these inextinguishable principles in our nature—our love of freedomloy ^ of country—love , of home , and many others , but the love of life predominates . At present , the popular opinion is , that the natural

De&n Taylor , the Ckar : i 3 t Missionary for the county of Derby , and though the bellman could not be found to cry the meeting , yet a very mwnerous and attentive aadienee assembled in . the Market Place , to hear that gentleman ' s lecture , which was one full of pithy argument , explanatory of the six principles of freedom , as contained in the Charter ; during which every principle was separately expounded , and such instruction given as the inbabrtaote of Belper most essentially needed . Mr . Tickers opened the proceedings , by placing the Chartists « n die vantage ground , above either Whig « Tory . After the meeting , Mr . D .

The Chairman in a neat appropriate speech introdaced Mr . Low , from Dundee , who delivered an excellent lecture on tae present state of the country , its evils and their remedy . Tkroaghout the lecture he was rapeavealy cheered by a crowded audience . Three cheers were then given for Mr .

Julias H&TBey trho tvas unable to attend from indisposition ; more than five thousand persons being present .

On Friday eTeuin . s be cleared the Chartists from the calumnies and aspersions cast upon them , showing the high position occupied by them above the ruinous factions of the day , proving the Charter to be the only means of
redress to the people ; and on Saturday evening , he oombatted the Corn Law question in an able and masterly style , in which the Whigs came in for such a easagaiion as it is seldom their doom to reoeive . During these lectures the whole town was of a boil ; the Whigs made men drunk to disturb , hired two Italian organists to play near the meetings , and used other tricks , bat it was no go . The hearty lads of Barton have resolved not ' to be hoodwinked and humbugged any longer . Lasting good has been done which will not soon be forgotten .
DEVON . —The energie * of the men of Devon have been some tone directed to tbe obtaining of a talented Individual as a county laetarer , for the better dissenusatio& of the glorious principles of tbe People ' s Ch&r tet , through this WMg and Tory-ridden feeaightod oovaty , in which they have at length happily succeeded , by the engagement of Mr . BolweU , sen ., of Bath , who arrived at Plymouth on Wednesday last , June 30 th , in \ h » midst of the electioneering squabble . He addressed a vary attentive meeting of about E « 0 persons of all classes , ou the Hoe , the next evening , ( Thursday ) on the principles of the People ' s Charter , tad elicited busts of approbation from bis delighted auditory , at the elose of which three cheers were given for the Charter -, three for the Lecturer ; and three

ADDRESS OF THE ABERDEEN CHARTER UNION TO FEARGUS O'CONNOR , ESQ . Sir , —In addressing you as a united body of Chartists , conveying our expression * of deep sorrow ahd heartfelt sympathy for you in your horrible situation , we naturally believe , if anything can chapr you in your dark and solitary , ceil , it must be the opea aud avowed denunciation of millions of yeur fellow r . es , against a motty race , whose lives are spent in an underrating course of profligacy and wickedness , more celebrated for their wilful perversion of justice than anything
We next instance our entire approbation of the whole course of your proceedings known to us as a political agitator . Few men would have dared to face persecution , and kiss the walls of a prison house for the good of the people , and , solely upon their account , sacrifice ltng rivetted friendship , wealth , and honour , by mingling with the crowd , in order to raise the working man to his proper standard in society , speaking comfort to the- oppressed , the weary , and th « forlorn . Cat this you have done , and we are fully sensible that for this , and this only , youare suffering . Had you enlisted into the service of Tory depravity or Whig hypocrisy , the masked batteries of the corrupt
press , edited by scientific jugglers who dole out weekly or dally quantuma of discoloured infamy , would have sounded your fame , while at the same time , the whole host of spiritual attornies in the pay of the state , -would have sung anthems to your praise ; meanwhile the bench would have blushed at the thought of your guilt , and laughed to scorn all those who dared to accuse you . Forsaken , and entirely deserted as we know you are , by your former companions in society , because you have chosen a purer and more hallowed path , we shake hands with yon as our friend , and the friend of mankind , the destroy or of mock virtue , vile institutiens , and the promoter of all that is just , generous and sood .
Although the damp and unwholesome air of your dungeon nay have seriously tended to destroy the strength of your once healthy constitution , let not despondency act doubly to its destruction ; for remember the tens of thousands of souls who are counting wearily the intermediate hours between this aud the lasfstroke of the pendulum of the clock , which will say to injastic * , " wickedness must now be satisfied , —unloose the bolts and bars of your house of restriction and torture , — the captive is free from the power of his intended destroyers , —the hand of the assassin must let go its grasp , and « aU po-werlesaly by his side . " Wnen this happy hoar arrives , as arrl-re it mast , one SC 9 Ut Of jty Will be
heard xrom . Land ' s End in Cornwall to John O'GrOltS , the wand of which will be caught in the land of your birth , and re-echeed back by tie voice of every lover of freedom between Cape Clear and the Giant's Causeway . We do not intend to convey to you anything in the shape of fulsome adulation ; we write wh ' . it we believe to be facts , and by calculating the sentiments of other districts by our own . We know tkat great anxiety prevails for your welfare , and that some portion of the day of your liberation , wijl be set . apart for congratulating each other on ths happy circumstance of your release ; it will be so here , and we have reason to believe it will be so elsewhere .
It would seem needless for us to enter into a long detail of the insignificant bickerings here about the LoTett and Collias " New Scheme ; " it will not admit it , for the good sense of an overwhelming majority crushed at once all discussion on the matter of any prolonged description . This had the effect o £ disbanding from the Union a stubborn faction , who , although able Chartists , seemed anxious to drag all power iato their restless keeping , without rach magisterial authority being centred in thenselveB , they would do nothing in harmony , and preferred retiring . This at once quashed a bold conspiracy which , in our opinion , had for its object ihe . lessening of your uaefollsess , oy courting our adhereaee to men wavering in priuciple , ana a death blow aim » d at the Northern Star . But do we not all
know here , that our spare resources ( after contributing to general purposes ) do sot sufiioe for our local wants ; that a resting plaee wherein we can meet in friendly concourse is a primary object ; that such habitation is in progress to be erected ; and that great exertion will be required in order to secure free accommodation . Theaby what impulse of idiotcy , by what of folly , by what of madness , to attempt to destroy our usefulness at home by contributing to set up a system which embraces nothing new , except widening our difficulties by creating an additional expense without an immediate controul over oar subscriptions . Before closing this subject , we are bound to admit a fact much to the honour of the new party bere , they lose no opportunity of standing Jorth along with us , advocating the principles of the Charter , aud -would seem resolved to omtvie as in putting Whiggery to shame , to the no small mortification of the gaping fools , who know not the strength of our general principles , and are prone to be taught
them , or othermae carried stray by the too popular projadices which are fostered by ambition , OeUCSiOU , and tyranny . Tbu * , 8 ir , yea will perceive , the Lovett and Collins scheme , is , amongst us , a dead letter , and from its being based upon the more noble structure of primitive Chartism , will every where crumble into it again , and vanish without any chance of separate restoration . Chartism , as it has been agitated , requires no auxiliary and having truth on one side and justice ou the other , it will go on in glorious majesty , courting inquiry and defying opposition ; and eventually must work the total overthrow of much that is base , venal , and vicious ; aad likewise considering that no difference of opinion on abstract principles hinders our being firmly banded together like a rock of adamant , while storming the citadel of corruption , the deformed monster must soon resemble the varigated hue of the cameleon , or altogether go out of existence .
Sir , anxiously hopiag , as we do , that you will live to partake of the fall enjoyment of witnessing the measures yoo so zealously advocate become triumphant , and that , while within you dre&ty abode , and subjected to bear with patience innumerable indignities , accompanied with unnecessary restrictions for safe keeping ; yet , we trust , the conscious rectitude of your honestly held principles , will waft occasional impulses of secret enjoyment , in spite , of the withered , scowl ol your keepers , and the no less provoking remembrance of your having doae nothing wrong . If yon shall be spared to leave your cell in life , and if after such a long and loathsome confinement , strength should enable yon to visit any part of Scotland , Aber deen mt&t not be forgot . We wish to see you here , and although we are surrounded with a cold and dense atmosphere , "we will endeavour to give yon a kind . and a warm-hearted reception .
In conclusion , we know nothing xan give yon more pleasure than to learn that every man is at his post , and doing his duty . This , we think , is-the case everywhere , fox look where we may , all men are busy in the noble work , and now that the " rabble" of the south have joined with the " swine" of the north , the contest against iniquity can neither be long nor doubtfuL Sir . we remain , Mort respectfully yours , By order of the Charter Union , Joh . v PifLLAW , Chairman . Georgz Smart , Secretary . Abwdsen , Juat mb , 18 * 1 .

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HOBTHEKN STAB . Sib , —As the following letter is on behalf of one of those who , like myself , has suffered inconsequence of imprisonment , you will oblige me , and I hope him , by giving it insertion in your next Saturday's paper . W . AiTKEN . TO THE RADICALS OF OLDHAM . BRETHREN IH THE CACSE OF DEMOCRACY , —I have beard with a considerable degree of pleasure , that it is your intention to subscribe your mites towards commencing in business my friend Mr . Butterwortb , of Manchester .
Antecedent lo the agitation commencing for the Ckarter , Mr . Butter worth was in an excellent situation , and when he saw the struggle that was commended to give political power to the people , the spark of liberty that was glowing ia bis bosom was immediately fanned into afUme ; he came boldly out on the arena of political contention—soon incurred his master ' s displeasure , and was throws oat ot employment Si > t disheartened by the persecutions of his employers , he still continued his exertions in the cause of human regeneration till the Government laid their homicidal talons on him and cast him into prison . Since his release from the fangs of bis merciless rulers , be has beet * untiring in his zeal for the people's welfare , although ( and I know it from personal acquaintance ) he has been struggling with an ocean of difficulties , and suffered a great many of those privations which the patriot ia all ages of the world has been compelled to endure .
If the people allow their advocates to starve , after they have done all they can to mend their condition , and brought their own wants upon them for their advocacy and love of justice , is it to be wondered at , that if the sun ef prosperity should ever again shine upon then , they will join no agitation , but stay at home and enjoy that domestic quiet and p « ace of Kind which is almost a stranger to him who is buffetted about on the waves of political agitation . I hope the Radicals of Oldnam will proceed in their praiseworthy and truly philanthropic resolution , to do something for Mr . Butterworth , because , by doing so , they mil remove penury from amongst his wife and family , under the sphere of his usefulness , by giving him a light heart , while moving through the thorny path of agitation , and enable him to get his livelihood in that independent manner which , I know , is the wish of his soul .
The men of Manchester , to whom he is intimately known , ought to assist the men of Oldhain , in raising Mr . Batterworth above the grim-faced villain poverty-Nothing is more pleasing to the enemies of the people than to see the people ' s advocates ia want aud misery , brought on by the tyrant's efforts to crush them , and the cool indifference of the people . My opinion is , that no man ought to starve after suffering imprisonment for endeavouring to mend the condition of society , when a penny par man would place them in comfortable circumstances . 60 on , then , men of Oldhatn and Manchester , and raise your suffering and tried friend above the contemptuous sneer of his iron-hearted persecutors , and by assisting those who endeavour to assist you , you will nerer want talent and integrity in your ranks .
