wildness of disorgaaised enthusiasm had pteSTflsee to a not tobe-wnq « i 5 h % d < ktermiBa * k > fi ; titer&ad , - it was troe , ^« mad-talking ot-amymgal \ M&r them in amoBth , of 5 ) 090 Srttedtneh in YorSddift , who coald eom beat ttre nw reemaB at the Tower , especially tfled <• ty hito ^{ obeera ); they had none of this bow , bat they had what was much better , a strong phalanx of reasonable and determined men , who were determined to carry their point . They wiBhect * to bknfll intellectual knowledge with physical force . The-Chartis te were now preparing a system-of organising , a system- by whioh the peop le could oppose foree by foroe . ( De * feniog cheers . ) The'Chartisa of the prtsent day was as farstrperior to the-CfeaHtBm ef 1838 , and 18 S 9 , as the light
of the sun was superior to the fight of the moon ; ( C&eers . ) It was neither the moral force delusion , fior the-physical force madness . '( Hear and cheers . ) The partizaos of both were now equally repudiated . Mr . O'B . then characterised a portion « f the first General Cofiiention as haviDjr , albeit Arrayed nnder the seemingly antagoniet banners of moral and physical force , combined to destroy the popular eaase . H ^ Bfeoald probably aereafter make BOffle Startling disclosure doztoeetedwith those ' parties ! a the Goa « Tention ; for the present it would Boffio © to affirm ^ thai he had not been rietimized by the GoTernment so much as by these men . Yes , -they had all been . sold by these hypocritical tillainB- ; others had been sold , with their eyes shut , but he with bis eyes
ppe « . ( Cheers and execration . ) Be- had nerer spoken treason ; be bad always been most particul arly cautious ; and winterer his desire might have been , he had always enveloped himself in the mantle of the law j bat , because he had been so cautious , the gorernment set their mark upon him , and said , " That is a dangerous man / ' ( Hear . ) As he had preTiously , bo would he thea caution the pablic against any premature display of physical force . If has a 4 rice had been -taken the Birmingham riots would nerer hare taken place . He also did his best to prerent the calamities which afterwards occurred in Wales . And yet he had been branded as the most violent man in the country . ( Shame , shame . ) He had bees imprisoned for a perfectly legs ] speech at Manchester , and denied the use of pen , ink , and paper , and branded by Lord Normanby aa the most
Violent mas among the party . " ( Shame , shame . ) It had been alleged against him by a lying press , that he had openly counselled the people to arm , but in truth he had Deen ever exceedingly cautious how far he committed himself upon that subject , though he would admit that he had often at nigat prayed the Almighty to dispose the people to the exercise of a great constitutional right . { Laughter and cheers . ) Mr . O'B . having detailed his own sufferings in prison , proceeded to describe the horrible privations witnessed by him during his recent tour in the manufacturing districts—where within a few years , wages had been reduced to less than one half of what they formerly were . ( These statements produced a strong sensation in the meeting . ) Having described the
condition of the plundered , he would next , after the mode adopted by the police , endeavour to trace the stolen goods to the receivers , previous to exposing the actual robbers . Mr . O'Brien then in that masterfy and effective style for which he is celebrated , demonstrated that millocrats , profitmongers , and fixed-income capitalists had received the spoil which knavish-aristocrat-law-makers had plundered from tke nation . All the miseries of the people were ewing to class legislation and bad government ; and he would undertake to prove against any maa , either in England or oat ef England , —1 st . That the whole of the social evils of England were ihe result of acts of Parliament , or the wants of acts of Parliament ;—2 nd . That the pernicious acts of Parliament to whieh he ascribed the social-evils were made for the purpose
of enabling tte one class of society to rob and enslave the other classes ; and 3 d . He would undertake to bring any man from the body of the room , and so instruct him , that he would be able to place his finger upon every objectionable statute , aye , and to substitute others in their places . ( Cheers . ) The great remedial proposition be laid down was , that until the people obtained dominion over the land , and over the credit and circulating medium of the country , there eonld be no sensible amelioration of the condition of the masses . If ever he bid * seat in the House of Common 9 ( and there he ought to be now , havinx been legally elected for Newcastlenpon-Tyne , he would bring in a bill to the effect , that , on toe death ef every landlord , his estate
should revert to the nation , and the full value of it should be distributed amongst the heirs—( oheer<»)—and upon that , as the principal , should hang many more bills which he would bring forward . ( Cheers . ) The landlords were , ia one way or the other , receiving £ 80 , 000 , 000 a year for property which of right belonged to the nation . He ( Mr . O'Brien ) would then propose that Government should let out the land in small allotments , so as that poor men might be able to rent small portions of it . Air . Feargos O'Connor bad in the admirable series of letters recently addressed by him to the landlords of Ireland , demonstrated that this was not only practicable , ~ but that plenty of employment and of enjoyment would accrue therefrom to the now starving
millions . ( Applause . ) The rent which the state would receive from the land , so let out in small allotments , would be at least £ 12 , 000 , 000 a year ; while under the altered system of things , £ 5 , 010 , 000 would suffice for carrying on the Govenment of the country . But he ( Mr . O'Briea ) would allow £ 20 , 000 , 000 annually for the purpose of carrying on the affairs of the country and educating the entire nation . There would consequently be » yearly surplus of £ 100 , 000 , 000 in the hands of the nation . Now , what he proposed to do with that surplus would be , to pay off the national debf . This he would be enabled to do in thirty or forty years ; for he would sweep away the usury laws , and not pay over again that portion of the debt which had been paid
over again by the exorbitant interest which had been exacted from the nation . But he could not conclude his speech without something political , aad therefore he must impress upon the meeting that the people could never accomp li sh the great object he proposed until they obtained the Charter . There were three thingB which the people ought to do . They ought to procure 4 , 000 , 000 signatores to a petition for the Charter before the meeting of Parliament . And they ought at the next general election to hold up their hands for candidates of their own principles in every town and county throughout the kingdom , and whereyer there wia a majority of hands for the candidates , let all those candidates meet and legislate for the people . Then they could , ia the third plaoe ,
refrain from working whenever and whatever length of time suited themselves . He would juBt only make one observation , more , and that was that the people in case of necessity , could provide themselves with weapons of defence , and then if they allowed themselves to . be shot , all the devils in hell could not save them . ( Loud and long-continued cheers . ) Upon the termination of Mr . O'Brien ' s address , of which from its extreme length , the above is necessarily but a mere abstract , a general call was raised tot Dr . M'Douali . ( who had just previously entered the meeting . ) He congratulated them upon having bo numerous an assemblage , and hoped that , as the Executive , of which he was a member , had arrived in London , they would be enabled to re-¦
move such causes of division as had prevumBly existed among them . ( Approbation . ) He had that evening attended another meeting , to do honour to one who , like Mr . O'Brien , had Buffered muoh for freedom ' s Bake . That meeting had been presided over by a member of the House of Commons —Thomas Duncombe . ( Loud cheers . ) He ( Dr . M'Douall ) felt assured , from what had there fallen nun Mr . Dnncombe , that the Chartists might , from that night forward , claim him as one of themselves . ( Increased plaudits . ) The worthy Doctor having farther eulogised "honest Tom Dancombe , " and Announced the Executive ' s determination not to countenance my party but that of the great body of the unenfranchised , resumed his Beat amidst general applause . Mr . Bexbow commented upon some observations of Mr . O'Brien ' s , but , as it subsequently appeared

LEEDS TOWN COUNCIL ; The first genera ! quarterly assembly t ) f this body took place ( according to the provision of the Municipal ' Ack ) on Tuesday last , at soon .

Marshall , Matthew Hall , Riohard Nickols , John Rogerson , John Cliff , Joseph GUff , Joseph Winn , John Barker , William Wainman , George Hay ward , John Prince , Thomas Bntler .
The only absentees were Aldermen Hall and Benyoa , and Councillor Uppleby . . The Mayor entered the room and took the chair at twelve o'clock . When the minutes of last meeting were read and confirmed . Mr . Alderman Tottie In commencing the business of the day , in a complimentary speech , proposed Mr . Alderman Fawson , as a fit and proper person to fill the office of Mayor for the year ensuing . Mr . Councillor Joseph Cliff seconded the nomination of Alderman Pawson .
Mr . Councillor Howard had no personal objection to Mr . Pawson—he believed him U be a highly respectable man , but he thought it was due to the state ef parties in that room that for the first time within the past six years a gentleman of polities different to those of Mr . Alderman Pawson , should be elected . Such a gentleman , one In every way qualified for the office , he had the honour to propose . He begged to nominate Mr . Councillor Bramlef , as a fit and proper person for Mayor . Mr . Councillor Atkinson seconded the nomination , and on the motion of Mr . Councillor Hay ward , the votes were ordered to be recorded . . The numbers were—For Mr . Alderman Pawson , 35 ; for Mr . Councillor Bramley , 23 ; majority , 12 . Mr . Pawson was consequently declared duly elected , amidst the cheers of his friends .
The Ma yob elect returned thanks for the honour which had been conferred upon him , and stated that he should take the privilege given him by the Act , by which he was allowed five days to consider whether he would , accept the office or not . The next business was the election of eight Aldermen , previous to entering upon which , those who retired by rotation walked out of the room . The retiring Aldermen were Wm . Williams Brows , George Goodman , Hamer Stassfeld , T . W . Tottie , Henry Hall , James Holdforth , Thomas Benyon , and Wm . Pawson . The electi » a took place in the form prescribed by the Act , namely , by each Alderman and Councillor delivering into the Mayor a voting paper , signed by his own name , ou which was written the name and description at fall length of those gentlemen for whom he intended to vote .
Mr . Councillor Martin Cawood first delivered bis Toting paper , and then addressed the Council at great length , calling upon the gentlemen opposed to him , as they valued their own consistency , as they wished to act upon the principles they themselves laid down—of justice to one and to all , to give his side of the house a share in Aldermen to be elected . The names he proposed were Henry Hall , Christopher Beckett , William H © y , sen ., Wm . Oott , Wm , Gtilyotd ScArth , Charles Ban , Simeon Mosgnve , and John Barton . The voting then went on , and occupied a length of
time . The result was that the following list , supported to a rnan by the Whig party , were chosen . — Mr . Geo . Goodman , Low Hall , woolstapler . Mr . H . Stansfeld , Barley , stuff-merchant Mr . T . W . Tottie , Beech Grovo , solicitor . Mr . Wm . Pawson , Farnley , merchant . Mr . T . B . Pease , Chapet-AHerton , stuff-merchant Mr . Darnten Lupton , Potternewton , merchant Mr . J . D . Luccock , North-street , Leeds , stuff-merchant Mr . John Jacfeson , Headingley , com-merchant .
The above had thirty votes each ; the highest number obtained by any gentleman on the Tory list was twenty-four ; the Tories , however , divided their fortea , and did not vote unanimously , some of them mixing the names of respectable Whigs amongst theirs , and others voting for different Tories . The Mayor declared the above duly elected . On the motion ot ifr . AWerman Hitbbarp , seconded by Mr . Councillor Joshxia Bower , the Council then adjourned for an hour , in order to give time for the new Aldermen to qualify . On the Council re-assembling , The next notice on the paper was proceeded with , and the quarterly meetings were ordered to be held on the first Wednesday in February , May , and August , at eleven o'clock in the forenoon . The election of a Treasurer was next proceeded with . John Smith , Esq . was re-elected , after a vote of thanks to him for h is valuable services
The Council then proceeded with the election of a printer , and it was resolved , on the motion of Mr . Alderman ToTTiK , that a Special Committee , consisting of Csuncillors Garland , Ktlsall , and Whitehead , were appointed to obtain contracts for both printing and stationery for the ensuing year , and to report the result of their labours to the Council . Mr . CalliDgworth , as printer , and Mr . Cross , as stationer , were assigned to theso offices until their successors are appointed . The Finance Committee ' s report was next brought under consideration , when the Council resolved itself into a Committee of the whole house , Mr . Alderman G . Goodman in the chair . The items were read seriatim , and the accounts , after a long conversation on the claims put on the municipal list for Kirfcgate Ward , by the Committee of the Parliamentary Reform Association , were passed . The amount ( including £ 883 18 s . 7 d . due for the maintenance of prisoners at Wakefield , was £ 2 , 263 8 s . 3 d .
The Council next proceeded to nominate a Watch Committee of s 5 xteen , exclusive of . ' the .. Mayor , with power to appoint , suspend , and dismiss constables , and to order the payment ef the salaries , clothing , and other allowances . After considerable altercation ,. the following were elected .- —Alderman BatesOD , Councillors Cudworth , Dove , Kekall , Wnitehead , Brumflt , Dufton , Martin Cawood , Barlow , Baker , PuUan , Joatph Cliff , Shackleton , John Cliff , Nickols , and Prince . The following gentlemen were appointed the Finance Committee for the ensuing year : —Aldermen Tottie , Musgrave , Gaunt , Smith , John Goodman , Hebdea , Lupton , Councillors Lee , Hunter , Skelton , Holmes , John Cawood , Garland , Dickinson , Joshua Bower , and HalL
After the appointment of this committee , an adjournment of the meeting was moved , when Alderman Pawson rose and said , that , after consulting his ftisnds , he had determined to accept the office to which he had been elected . He was thereupon , after some conversation , installed into the civic chair , and invested with the gold chain of office . He again thanked his friends for their kindness , and said he would endeavour to discharge bis duties faithfully . Mr . Alderman George ! GOODMAN moved a vote ef thanks to Alderman Smith , the reUrioir Mayor , for his kind , generous , devoted , and parent attention to the ardnoua duties of his office for the two past years . Mr .

Mr . Councillor Baker enquired of the Mayor if it was his intention to attend the Pariah Church on Sunday ? - ¦ ¦ ¦ - ¦ - . ¦ . ; ' .:: : ¦ . ' . ' . ' ' ¦ The Mayor said If the Council thought proper to go to church he would accompany them . It was ultimately arranged that the Mayor should communicate -with the Vicar , and arrange with him , the Sunday on which it would be convenient for him to preach a termon , and have a collection in behalf of the Infirmary . The Council then adjourned till eleven o ' clock on Friday morning .

TO THE ED 1 T 8 B OF THK NORTHERN STAB . Sib ., —Taking a deep interest in every Incident calculated to promote or retard the progress of the present movement for the attainment of Universal Suffrage , it was with feelings of no common description that I read your report of the discussion between Patrick Brewster and Feargus O'Connor , which took place in Paisley last week . That discussion Is likely to benefit the cause of the peoplo . It will enable them to distinguish their friends from their fees . The result is snch as every sensible and well-informed individual might have anticipated . It has proved , almost to demonstration , that though Brewster is the professed friend , he is a real enemy to the progress and prosperity of the movement
All parties allow that it is unmanly and unbecoming to trample on a fallen foe ; but there is one feature of this Reverend agitator ' s conduct that all appear to have passed over unnoticed—a feature , however , deserving attention , inasmuch as it might , long ere this , have convinced the Chartists of Scotland that Bra water ' s professed attachment to , and his advocacy of , the principles contained in the People ' s Charter , were insincere ; and it is to point public attention to this feature that I now write to yoa . Patrick Breweter has for years advocated the justice , propriety , and necessity of Universal Suffrage . He has done so , he e&ys , for the purpose of putting an end to all those unjust monopolies that have sprung from , and been upheld by , class " '
legislation . But of all the various monopolies that have been the result of exclusive prlvt leges , not one has been more insulting to the understandings of the people ; not one haa been' more irritating to their feelings ; not ono more abominable in their eyes ; not one more oppressive to their pen « nj » and properties , than the practice of endowing certain classes of religionists , and upholding their peculiar systems at the public expense . To ono of these txclu . sively privileged parties , Patrick Brewster to attached . By this unjust and monopolising system , he has bis wealth . This Bystem of robbery and oppression , legalised by Act of Parliament . "P . Brewster cannot Vreak Sown —cannot abolish single-handed . But oho thing he can do , and one thing he ought to do , to render his
advocacy of equal rights consistent He ean throw up his situation in the church , —he can refuse to touch the unclean thing—he can cesae to countenance the system of sectarian monopoly which has ground down and oppressed his fellow-citizens from time immemorialhe can practically , as far as he Is concerned , put an end to this crying grievance . This he ought to do , to render bfa conduct and professions consistent White he lives by monopoly , and advocates the prlndplesof eternal justice , every good man , every wise man , will set him down as one of those inconsistent characters " who say , and do not" His conduct wfil not teat to be tested by the scriptural criterion , " By their fruits shall y » know them ; " for if tried in this balance , Patrick Brewster shall be found wanting .
If he is really in earnest to see misgorernment , corruption , and oppression banished from the land , let bim set us the practical example of renouncing all con * nexton with them or profiting by them . This will evince bis sincerity—his devotion to the cause of truth and justice . It will raise him in the estimation of the people ; ifc will increase bisis&uenee ; it will proclaim bis consistency ; promote his comfort and command the respect of bis enemies . Let the preacher therefore remember , and reduce to practice the practical assertion , " that example is bettor than precept" Till this is done , Patrick Brewster must be looked on as the enemy of the peeple , and the practical promoter of injustice and oppression , Yoors , Sakoth . 8 th Nov . £ l 841 .

Sir , —The Chartist leaders of South Lancashire have drawn up a plan intended fox , the . better organisitlon of the different Chartist bodies in and wound Manchester . In this plan there is a list pt twenty-seven lecturers ; likewise & list of the different towns , enrolled in the National Charter Association , showing at ono view who will lecture in any of the said towns or districts , each locality paying their lecturer ' s expences , and . without boasting | believe we pay them as liberal as any other place , according to their own acknowledgment Notwithstanding , this , and being on . the plan ' tn the bargain , we have been djwppointed three P | N * nt times' yMhln the last six ><*** ,. whieb is' » ' ewiot * Vtiaif ty ooif ' Association , >* there are several who coffie opwirdsfbjf *" thie © miles to heat o ^ r lectures .

" . '' - ,... ' .- ; '¦ ¦ - .. Now it is most likely that each lecturer agreed to the above resolutions before bis name was entered on the list . Then why cot be punctual to the letter of hi « agreement ? They have no excuse whatever , as they could either send one in their placo . or write ua sUflng they could not possibly fulfll their OTgagemenU .

- i > m TO THE EDITOft OF THE NORTHERN 8 TAE . Sib , —Until very lately , I and many other persons here have been strongly opposed to the principle ? and doctrines of the Chartists . We had been , misinformed as to their tendency , and had been in the habit of regarding . them as a class of levellers determined to introduce strife , confusion , and anarchy into the country ; in a word we so abhorred the Chartists that we would not even open a Chartist paper , lest we might be polluted with the doctrines those papers preach , and the principles they disseminate .
Some time ago , our venerated Bishop , the Right Rev . Dr . Goer , encouraged \ yt& have learned ) by a certain wealthy gentleman , took it into bis bead to talk upon the points ex the Chatter ; but , in tbe course of his remarks , he very candidly confessed that the demands of the Chartists were anything but what they had been represented to him , and declared that they would be of infinite benefit to the country , if obtained in a peaceable way . His admission converted many , who were eithar wavering before or opposed to the Charter ; among the latter class I am one . .
I find that Dr . Coot was made , by a vjle Tory paper , ( the GcHway Advertisery to Bay that he acknowledged himself as a declared Ministerialist , that is & friend to the present Tory Administration , and that he delivered a withering denunciation against the Chartists . Nothing , Sir , can be farther from the truth than those two assertions . What he said was , " that the Whigs had the will but not the power to do good for the country , and that the lories had the power , and he hoped when time was allowed them , that they would show that they had tbe will to serve Ireland . " The same foul Tory organ vilifies the Rev . Mr . Macilin , for bis attachment to the principles of the Charter . This gentleman
long ago confessed to the Chartist agent , here , Mr . B . Macdonell , that he himself ( Mr . M . ) saw . nothing evil In tbe demands of the Chartist body , and , therefore , he is attacked because he did not join in the hue and cry raised against them .. ,.,,. ., I feel great pleasure In being able to announce to you that tbe principles of your paper are gaining a fast hold upon the minds of all elaawa here , and as a proof of my assertion , I can assure you that it is now ns fashionafele to call far the Star , as for any other paper in our newsrooms , although the members of those rooms consist of Whigs , Radicals , Tories , Repealers , and anti-Repealers .
The letter of Mr . Hayes , from Cork , which appears in the last Star , has , brought over very many ; and the other happy declaration made thereon , that "Mr . O'Connor would henceforth make use of no personalities against Mr . O'Connell . " now ( and 0 . the glorious triumph ) Lord Mayor of Dublin . Ab , Sir , what a strengthening to the great aad glorious causo of civil liberty would be effected by a coalition between the Irish Repealers and the English Cbartista t soon would we behold the happy , the long-wished for consummation , the downfall of monopoly , the end of class legislation ; soon would we see the political locusts which now overspread the length and breadth of the land , crushed , destroyed , annihilated . Yes , Sir , we would soon bee the human hive purged of tbe drones that revel and fatten upon the labours of the working classes—the industrious bees , by whose assiduity and toil are filled and replenished , with tbe honied stores of food , wealth , and riches , all the variong cells which constitute the great hive of the human society .
That sucb a coalition may speedily be accomplished , is , Sir , the ardent wish of one who bos the honour io subscribe himself A Loughbea Chartist . Loughro , Nov . 2 nd , 1841 .

Sib , —1 beg yon to state to yonr readers that Richard Brooks , of Leigh ' , Lancashire , was sentenced at Kirkdale Sessions , to twelve months' imprisonment , ia Lancaster Castlo , for seditious libel ! A libel pretended tobe uttered before the holiday in 1839 . Oh , Sir , there is a charge of tyranny , cruelty , and viudictivoness , oa the part of the prosecutors in this ease , that must , aye shall , come before the world , I , therefore , request through your journal , that some kind friend In lieigh will furnish you or me , with the full , truei and particular account up to the time of Brooksjeaving for his trial , ana I vin forward the farcical » n > viUanona court part of tiie business .

I have forwaided to Mr . Abel Heywoo 4 » aixtaea shillings , which was subscribed on her behalf by Qie friends of good government in this . town . ; Hei Mtuatton I know to be deplorable ; therefora , let otur mite tie added to by the mitesM others ^ and the worat may yet be avoided . ^ ' .. ...

Po not let the last withering blow be added to tfie , reft ; for remember a tro . e democrat heeds not the malice of the oppressor—it is the Ingratitude of the old . auodates that kills . Brooks thinks much of his family , therefore , do let something be done for them and speedily . Geobqb Uotp . Liverpool , Nor . Otb . 1841 .
