SUNSSBXANO . —On ^ n 3 ay afternoon , Mr . Biims lectured at the Life Boat House , to &a anasually large , audience , lie gave an interesting report of his mission to . York , and introduced some humourous iaoidents that occurred to Ma on hie journey . Whe » at Durham , waiting the arrival of toe ooacb . to take Jiim on to Dariiflgion , ke observed a gentleman , with a » &to ^^ , who appeared uneomjnonlv anxious to get » seat On being told that the Whigs were now oat , and the Tories fairly in , he heard Mm « xslaim bj G ~ diiiia will surely rouse the country . " Mr . Binns . thea set the owner © f the white hat cbwn for a . Corn Law bombug lecturer . Mr . Bions learned afterwards , that the supposed lecturer . wiserrair him , had excluded he was
some attorney ^ clerk , or irxpefa shop boy . The ooach arrived , and ifaera were so seats for either Mr . Binns then immediately engaged a gig r and left the Com Law lecturer caagrineaat his disappoint men :. He arrived in DarlingUm _ oa Socday afternoon , and next morning on arriving at the railway station , behold there was the gentleman with the white hat again . They got into the same carriage together and proceeded to York , on ^ amving there he lost sight of iuin ; he Mr . Binn »^ aoeee 4 ed to the room when the delegates MumnraAa , and to his astonishment , when , he arrived , there was the gentleman , wits the white hat , again ' . A carpet bag
was standing by nis side , Mr . Brnos looked at it , and found by the direction upon it , that the owner of the hat was " Mr . Arthur , of Carlisle . " He then accosied him , and each enjoyed a hearty laugh a& the false impressions wnich they had formed of each other . Through this false impression , Mr . Arthur had te trudge his weary way on foot , nearly twenty miles from Durham to Dailinrtcn , while he , Mr . . Binns , was at the erpenoe of a . gig , and had , a solitary journey . In addition to Mr . Arthur ' s walk to York , he had a , walk of fourteen miles the same morning from Newcastle , haTing been disappointed there of a ssa ; to Durham .
Progress op Chabtisx . —The cause goes nobly on in Sonderiand . Chartism is now becoming popular even amongst the middle classes , and many of those who before were most bitter in their hostility , have now become wara and attached friends . Not long ago it would haTe been impossible for the Chanista to have procured the use of the Arcade room , now it is not only at their service whenever they require it , bus the council have been enabled to engage this splendid room for weekly meetings to be held every Tuesday evening . The first of these is to be held on Tuesday next , when a lecture on the power and prospect of the democracy will be delivered by Mr . Williams . Singing of patriotic hymns is intended to be introduced , and a number of young
men have volunteered their services for the purpose The council of the Charter Association have also engaged a . fine room in Bridga-street , for the purpose of converting it partly into an adult school-room , when reading and writing will be taoght two evexings each week , gratuitously . The other evenings , and throughout each day it ia to be open as a Convention room to all the members of the Charter Association . This has long been a desideratum , and we anticipate much good from it . It is well worthy the attention of Chartist Teetotallers , and we hope & 22 Chartists are , or will soon be , Teetotallers . The
public-house is not a fitting place of rendezvous for political Keforaers ; they should meet where they can enjoy the feast of reason and the now of seal unaccompanied by those debasing and ruinous associations necessarily connected with drunkard manufactories . This room will provide such a place , and . independent of its indirect tendency to weaken the attractions connected with public houses , ft will do a Tast amount of positive good by affording facilities fox the cultivation and enjoyment of those social sympathies which tend so powerfully to cement man to man , and make us brethren by kindred feeling as well as by common principles .
Ttesdat Evbsihg , Bsptbjcbkb 7 th . —We hav » J ust censtaded & splendid and most enthusiastic meeting , held in the Arcade Room . The room was densely soirded , and tbe stairs and passages leading to it were « Uo thronged by numbers wbo were unable to gain admittance to the roon . The object of the meeting was to promote the enrolmeHt of the people in the National Charter Association , and If -we were to take the spirit shown last idg&t , and the numbers who enrolled , &j materials for conjecturing , we should antidp&te a glorious society . Mr . J . Q . K 3 rk « , waa unanimously called to the chair ; bavins introduced the business , he called epon Mr . George Bimu to move the 1 st resolution , which was as follows : — " That the present condition tt thu country , it » financial emolument * , commercial
-depression , decaying trade , and Increasing misery , imperatively calls for the immediate and united eSbrti of &U classes , but especially the middle and working 4 asBes , to reecue it from the plunder and misrule of political factions , by securing , through the People ' s Charter , tbe ascendancy of the people '* interest , ia the Commons House of Parliament . " Mr . Bragg , in a brief , enable , and appropriate address , seconded the resolution , which was carried unanimously . Mr . Bobbie , in sa impressive aad useful speech , mored the aext reso lution -. — " That tlhe principles , objects , and constitution of the national Charter Association , is veil fitted to combine together the friends of freedom , and to concentrate their energies against th » common foe , and therefore this meeting resolves to support that
Association to the utmost of Its powtr . " Mr . Williams seconded it in a long and able address , when it was put , and carried unanimously . Messrs Taylor asd Richmond ( the latter a recent and valuable convert to tbe cause ) moved and seconded the following resolution , in addresses which did them great credit : — " That the thanks of this meeting are due , and are hereby rendered , to Sharm&n Crawford , Esq ., and those Members of Parliament who supported him in his attempt to bring before the House of Commons the condi tion , wrongs , and claims , of the people ; and this meet ing also dwwncftH thfi conduct of Messrs . Boabuck , Ward , and others , who , professing sympathy for the
people , left the new Member for Backdate unsupported on that occasion . * This was carried amidst great cheerisg . Three eheen were then given for O'Connor , three for Frost , Williams , and Jones , it , &c , and the Chairman smeunced that names of persons disposed to join would now be received . A great number then came forward and enrolled themselves . It to announced that the Council had engaged a room in Bridge-street , behind Ihe Co-operative Store , ¦ which would be open as a place o ? rendezvous to the members of the Charter Associa tion , and also for conversation aad reading . On two evenings in the week , it was intended to have an adult school in it for instructing , gratuitously , msmbers in reading , writing , 4 &

Hall , George and Dragon Inn , Nsw-street , Haaley , where the kindest re eption was givea us , and every accommodation necessary for the night ' s amusement ¦ was amply afforded by the worthy host of the house . The large room connected ¦ with the premises -will hold 200 individuals , and 120 of the Etsneii Chwtists cf the Potteries sat down to tea . Singing , dancing , and reciting continued till late in the evening . This tea-party and ball was got up for the express purpose of doing honour to our noble-minded paoio :, Fear ^ m * O'Connor , Esq . and to celebrate his release from the Tort dungeo ' n . The greatest harmony pervaded the whole of the assembly , andevtry heart setmed to rejoice in iLc liberation of gut gUrioas chit I from the clutches of an unjust and power-usarpiE ? government . The herculean fosfr of uniting an industrious people in the esuse of aeme > cracy , the untiring isal , atid the indexible
charact « r of Mr . O'Connor , have gained for him the affection , respect , and co-opera :.: oa c ! the Chartists sf Haniey and the Potter ' -.-= in lite caii 3 e of right aau justiee against oppress ! .-a and the monopoly of legislation . They sympathise with him , aad are determined that they win not cease their exartiou till the citadel cf corruption is entirely demolished . After tea vr ^ 3 concluded , Mr . Samuel Robinson was called to Lhe chair , who observed , that it was time for the people tobe up and doing , for their oppressors were gi Lading them » the earth "with unjust laws . The Queen , he aid , was supported , Dot by the afiections of the people , but by force ' and frand of the Court , and -would be the ease so long as monopoly of making Iaw 3 existed . — Several excellent toasts were given , and the evening was spent in the greatest hilarity .

" The resolution was carried unanimously , and after ghing three cheers for the leoturer , and three times three for that noble champion Mr . Faargua O'Connor , the meeting broke up , well satisfied with the « Tening ' s proceedmgs . ¦ BOLBROOB was visited by Mr . Dean Taylor who delivered a thrilling lecture upon the . Rural Police , who are about to be introduced into that place . The moon shone beautifully on the assembled multitude . "
SWAJTWiCB , —A lecture was delivered here by Mr . Taylor , ALFRJ 3 T 0 N . —Mr . Taylor lectured here on Friday evening , but was compelled to desist on account of the rain . A sermon was also preached here on Sunday afternoon , in theMarket-plaoe . which made great impression upon all present . A liberal collection was made . SOUTH W 1 NGFIEUD was visited without much prosaeot of success , but the way Was paved for an opening in Crich , by Mr . Dean Taylor .
BEiPKR . —Mr . Dean Taylor preached a sermon here upon politics and religion , to an audience of about 2 , 000 people , when a collection was made of 12 s , Id . The most profound attention was paid throughout , and it ia producing wonderful effects in the minds of the people ia favour of the Charter . Lbctubb . —On Monday , Mr . Dean Taylor delivered a truly spirited leoture at Belper , to a very large assembly . A liberal collection was made to assist in defraying the expenses of the delegates to York .
DOPPiELD . —A lecture was delivered here on Tuesday evening , to a numerous meeting , by Sir . Dean Taylor , and while he was describing the way in which the land became private property , and how tbe peers and parsons had become possessed of theirs , he was Btrangely interrupted by » respectable , of the name of Barber , who was astonished how Mr . T . could stand there talking in that way . TOBIffORDEN . —Saturday last was the day appointed to receive Dr . M'Douall into the Vale of Todmoiden . When the train arrived there were betwen two and three thousand persons assembled , all anxious to get a sight of th , e glorious champion of the people ' s rights ; but owing to the train from Lirerpool being haif-an-hour longer in coming than it should have been , he was too late for the train , and the people were disappointed . At a later hour the Doctor arrived , and at the request of the party , though it was nearly midnight , he addressed them
for about ifteen minutes in excellent style . The whole time he was sp « aking , persons kept coming in so that at last there was a goodly number present . On Sunday , the Doctor delivered a most animating lecture to nearly three thousand ptifcoiisoa Lang-5 e ! d Common , and such was the anxiety to hear that all was as silent as death . There were many gentlemen on norseback on the outskirts of the meeting , and the constables of the township and two policemen were in % ttendance , but there was nothing for them to do . In the afternoon , about two hundred persons accompanied the Doctor to Hebden Bridge , where he had been invited to attend , and he delivered two lectures , one at Hebden Bridges and the other at HeptonFtal ! , about a mile above the former place . The weekly meeting of the Chartists took place as usual , on Monday night , when there were eighteen new members enrolled , and it was resolved to take a fresh room in Todmorden , on account of the present one being too small , and not in the centre of the village .
LEICESTER . —The onward movement ha 3 begun in earnest . From Saturday morning to Monday evening last , fifty new members received card . - * , and were entered on the books . A deepening aad widely extending fe « ling has been for some time very apparent , under the Sunday night ' s discourses in the Market-place . The broad truths delivered there have been taken to men ' s homes , and to the workshops , conviction has arisen from discussion , and so entirely and heartDy have working men become penetrated with confidence in Chartism , as a moral and political remedy for their sufferings , that there needed but some accidental spark to set their resolution in a flame . The sudden release of our beloved O'Connor operated as that spark . From the day of
his liberation , working men in every quarter were heard saving they had made up their minds to join the Chartists , and should only wait till the close of the week before they put their decision into practice . It is believed that the influx of new members , just described , is but a foretaste of what is to come . Every meeting is crowded with eager htarers . The attendance on Mr . Cooper's political sermon , in the the Market-place , on Sunday evening , was more numerous than ever ; and on Monday night , the ancient and spacious Guildhall , was filled to excess , almost entirely by working men , who listened with every evidence of intelligent and admiring attention to a repetition of the lecture on " geology , and the advantages of a knowledge of science to working men . "
To KEEP C ? THE GLORIOUS EXCITBMEK 7 , MesSrB . Smart , Markham , and Cooper , on Tuesday night , visited a district of the town which haB loDg been considered least favourable to Chartism . They each addressed a crowd ih the open air for several minutes , and , at the close of the meeting , eight additional new members walked down to Mr . Cooper ' s shop and received cards , after enrolling their names . —Hurrah for old Leicester ! NEWCASTLE . —The Demonstration Committee met on Sunday for business , Mr . Morgan in the chair , when it was resolved that Mr . Sinclair bo appointed Secretary to the O'Brien and O'Connor Demonstration Committee , and Mr . Crathers , Treasurer for the same ; that a public demonstration be
got up for the reception of Messrs . O'Connor and O'Brieu , in Newcastle ; to be heid on a Monday , the better to mtet the convenience of a majority of the working classes ; and that the Secretary be instructed to correspond with Messrs . O'Brien and O'Connor , to learn the exact date . It was also determined that a publ : « tea be e , iTen in honour of those distinguished patriots , and tiiat a single ticket thereto be charged ODe shilling , a double ticket admitting a male and female , or two females , be charged one shilling and sixpence each . A deputation was appointed to wait upon all the united bodies cf trades , & . C ., in Newcastle , requesting their respective co-operation in the

I have been desired by the Executive to notice this , and trust it will be duly attended to . Yours , in tbe cause , P . M . M'Dou a li-

JULIAN HAKNRY TO THE CHARTISTS OF SHEFFIELD AND ITS VICINITY . Mt fhiends , —The day is rapidly coming when the chief of the people ' s choice , O'Connor , will once more visit your town , and again will his Uon-voice be heard In ycur streets , pealing the death-knell of tyranny , and awakening the masses from their apathetic sleep of slavery . Mea of Sheffield , I appeal to you to do yonr dutythe lying factions havo said that Chartism wag dead in Sheffield—if the giant hath ever slept the sleep of death , prove on the day of O'Connor ' s coming , that that sleep was only the precursor of a glorious resurrection .
My friends , I am earnestly desirous of rendering myself useful to the cause in which I am engaged . I am most anxious te seethe National AsBocAation not only flourishing in our cities and towns , but I fervently wish to see that glorious combination extended to out villages . A stranger in Sheffield , I have as yet no acquaintance with ita neighbourhood ; as such , J take this course to announce , that I am desirous of holding meetings in the following villages : — Attercliffe , DamaH , Ecclesfleld , Handsworth , Grimesthorpe , Hoeley , Stannington , Wadsley , Dronfleld , and Crookea . r I shall also be happy to hold district meetings in Sheffield , if I can have the help of my Chartist brethren . If the readers of the Stmr , la the above-named places , will make arrangements with me for the calling of meetings , they will oblige the writer of thia , and , it is to be hoped , materially serve the good cause .
I observe , in a letter from the unfortunate but gallant Samuel Holberry , addressed t > Mr . William Martin , of Brunpton , published in l :-. at Saturday ' s Star , an appeal to me that I woul ; ' n « rve tl . « c : » ptive For the satlsfactiou of Mr . Martin , an . ; "ther frv-ils of Mr .

Huix Corn Ma * knt , Tpespat , Seit :. 7 th . —With the exception of Wednesday and Thursday in last week , the weather has been broken arid unsettled . On Friday night and Saturday morning the rain was heavy and mees 3 ant , ac 6 ompanied with violent wind This change In the weather will eo much affect the condition of new Wheat , as to render a large portion of old Wheat neces ? ary before it can be used by tha miller 3 . Bonded Wheat has consequently been more enquired for— -ai : d on the sales passing on and since Saturday , full prices have been paid , while many holders nave withdrawn their samples to await the event of the duty arriving at its lowest point , whjch is expected to be on the 16 th instant . Harvest is progressing rapidly , and the farmers report that considerably more than half the crop of Wheat is cut round this neighbourhood , and a good deal secured , but there has not yet been . a sufficient
delivery to speak decidedly of quality or yield Spring corn is offering very sparingly , and no alteration in vataecan be noted . But little passing ia Rapeseed or Linseed , and prices unaltered . Rape and Linseed cake continue in good demand , and fully support prices . Bones meet buyers at late quotations . For to-day ' B market thero is a very limited show of new Wheat , farmers being basify employed with harvest , all more or less wanting condition , thebe 3 t of which briugs 60 s . and fl 4 s . per quarter Our millers have still to purchase south Wheat aad at high prices , the stock being exhausted of thia neighbourhood'ggrowtb . BondtdWheatisheld to-day at Is . to 2 a . per quarter higher prices than last Tuesday , but there is not much business doing . Beans and Peas fully support prices . Oats are dull , and when . sales are made less money is submitted to . Ia Barley nothing doing . The weather to-day is favourable for harvest work .
Richmonb Cobn Market , Sept . 4 th . —There was a very thin supply of Grain in our market to-day The samples of new Wheat were very soft . Wheat sold from 10 s . to 11 s . 6 d . ; new Wheat 7 b . 6 d . to 9 s . ; Oats 33 . 4 d . to 4 a . ; aew Oats 2 * . lOd . to 3 s . ; Barley 4 s . 9 d . to 53 . 3 d . ; Beaus 5 s . 6 d . to 6 s . per bushel . Manchester Corn Market , Saturdat , Sep . 4 th . —Until Friday morning the weather continued fine throughout tbe week , since which we have had some heavy rains . Our advices from the agricultural counties of England note considerable progress in the eorn harvest ; and the late fine weather has materially improved the appearance of the crops ia Ireland . Tho business of the week has been confined to a few sales of Flour and Oatmeal for
immediate consumption , and former prices were not supported . There are again large supplies of Oats and Oatmeal from Ireland . Of Foreign Wheat the imports comprise 19 , 631 quarters , ia addition to 1 , 700 quarters of Wheat , and 10 , 604 barrels of FJour from Canada . The duty on Foreign Wheat is now 6 s . 8 d . per quarter , and on Flour 4 s . per barr « l . At our market this morning there was less disposition to press sales of Wheat , but we must note a decline of Id . to 2 d . per 70 lbs . on our previous quotations . Choice qualities of English Flour were in moderate request at Is . to 2 s . per 2801 bs . below the rates of this day se ' nnight ; and for anything perfectly sweet in Canadia Flour there was some inquiry at a reduction of fully 13 . per barrel . The demand for Oata
and old Oatmeal was extremely limited , at a reduction of 23 . per bushel and Is . per load ; new Irish Oatmeal was retailed at 31 s . to 32 s . per 24 § lbs . No change in the value of Malt or Beans . Liverpool Coum Market , Monday , Sept . 6 . — Since this < Jay 8 «' anight we have received upwards of 7706 quarters of Oats , and 4403 loads of Oatmeal from Ireland , but the arrivals of other descriptions of Grain , as well as Flour , either thence or coastwise , have been small . From Canada we have had 1700 quarters of Wheat , 7 * 78 barrels of Flour , and 389 barrels of Oatmeal . The imports from foreign states include 19 , 948 quarters of Wheat . 500 quarters of Barley ,. 4711 quarters of Beans , and 1671 quarters of Peas . Up to Thursday night the weather continued favourable for harvest operations , and the Grain trade , generally , ruled dulj , prices of freo Wheat receuing 41 to 6 d per bushel below our last quotations . . Since then we have again had heavr
and almost incessant rain , whioh has given renewed confidence to holders of Wheat and Flour in bond a few parcels of the former have been sold at a small advance on the rates of Tuesday . The millers and dealers ( waiting the result of too approaching release of foreign ) have still bought sparingly of free Wheat , which has barely supported its previous value . Best sweet brands of Canadian Flour havo met a moderate demand at 36 s to 36 s 6 d per barrel . In the early part of the week both Oats and Oatmeal suffered a further depression ; good me&lir > g qualities of the former offering at 33 to 3 s Id per 45 Ibs ; Oatmeal at 25 s to 25 s 6 d per 24 Ubs ; at th .: so rates tho latter article has sold rather more freely , and Oats havo' been held somewhat more firmly . Little passing in either Barley , Beans , or Peas . The present duties on foreign produce are 6 s 8 d per quarter on Wheat . 9 a 4 d per quarter on Barley , 123 3 d on Oats , 16 s 6 a on Rye , 8 ? . on Beans , 3 s 6 d on Peas , aad 4 s per barrel of Flour .
Liverpool Cattle Market , Mondat , Sept . 6 . — There has been a good supply of Sheep aud Lambs at market to-day , with a fair demand far prime . Inferior met with a dull sale at last week ' s prices , lhe best Beef sold at 6 £ d ,, varying from that down to 5 d . Wether Mutton may be quoted at GAd ., second ditte 6 d ., ordinary and Ewm from o ^ d . down to 5 d ., and Lambs from 5 £ d . to 6 ^ d . per lb ., sinking tho offal . A few Beasts , as well as Sheep and Lambs , were left unsold at tho close . Number of Cattle at market : —Beasts , 1 , 255 ; Sheep an J Lambs , 6 . 959 .
London Smithpield Market , Monday . —Tho receipts of Jbeasts up to t . his morning ' s market from our grazing districts were , on the whole , moderate , both as to number and quality ; owing to which , the more favourable state of the weather for slaughtering , and to most of the dealers wishing to get their stock out as speedily as possible , and the confusion attendant on the holding of the fair , the beef trade vras on the whole brisk , aud the improvemen : of 2 d . per 8 'b noted in the currienoies on Fri'iay was well supported . From Scotland scarcely any fresh beasts or sheep came to haud . The numbers of sheep were tolerably good-while uw mutton trade was firm , and the best old Downs readily produced 5 * . per 8 lb . Lambs moved off briskly at a rise rf 2 d per Ulb ., aud a , goad clearance of them was effected . The veal trade was brisk at an advauca of 41 . per 3 lb . In pigs a considerable amount of business was passiog at the quotations .
London . Corn Exchange , Monday , Sept . 6 . — Only a moderate q \ . utity of Wheat w . ts on Nile this morning fwn Essex , Kent , and Suffolk , aud the supply of BiTley , Beans , and Peas from these counties was very tvifling , with a lair fresh supply of Oats , thero being a few car ^ o ^ a iron Ireland , aud our own coast . The import * . ; Toreiga Grain have been large since this da ? se ' nnight . On Friday and Saturday there was :. iieavy fall of rain , yesterday for a yhort duration , and this morning is very cold , with au unsettled appearance . Owing to the recent Btute of the weather the market has assume ! a firmer appearanca for all old Wheat , but tho bouded beiug so near the day of liberation , our millciB turned their attention more to uuo than to old
Eogiish , and a , fair extent of business was transacted therein ac fully the ra' ° > of thi § day se ' nniglit , and the drier samples of i . e-. v English were taken without aijy material variation in value ; but a great proportion being damp and inferior , such was very duil , and must be quoted again U . to 2 i . per quarter lower . Flour was without al' ^ r ? . tion iu value Barley commanded full as mucu money . Beaus were in fair request , and quite as dear . White apd grey Peas . were taken off slowly , the finer qualities realising last week ' s currencies ; inferior sorts were rather cheaper , whilst blue imperials brin ;; high prices . Malt was in fair j oquest , and quite ad dear . Thero was i moderate demand for Oata , the beat fresh samples bringing last Monday ' sprice 3 .
