liOWDON . —Ruffian Ami-Cojut Law League—On Thursday evening a ticket meeting of Section , No . 1 , ¦ was held at tbe Mechanics' Institution , Southampton . buildings , Hclborn ; about I GOO persons . were , present ; Hfc > nr > Warbunon , ex-M . P ., waa crfled to tUe chair , and the u&u&i quack doctrines of the League were de » lt fonh by Messrs . Yiilitra and Bickarda , Ai . F . 'n ., and a reooluaon of the same import waa about being put to the uifafctiug when . Mr . Biackraore rose to move an amendment ; tbia wa » the signal for the most discordant yelling unrt crieB of * ' turn him out , " fee ; tbe Chairtuan upon being appealed to , said Mr . Biackmore was out of order until the resolution had bben read . Mr . Block more bowed to this decision . Tbe Chairman read tbe resolution , and Mr . Blackmore moved aa an
amendment tbat Uibj took into thuir consideration tb « propriety of sbiiding delegates to tne Birmingham Conference . Ihe scone that eumed baffita description . At feast a dczeu of the League assailed Mr . Blockmore ; Huffy Ridley coming to bis a * aistance was immediately assailed hy tUeau well-dre « . ad biacVgoardt , aud after a desperate resistance they were thToirn over tbe balcony from tbe platform into the pit btlow . Huffy Ridley was struck by owe of tbe platform gentlemen with a stick , and his eye blacked and face seriously cut . Mr . Bl . ickmore was also severely bruised . Dr . Biack came forward and deprecated aucb unmanly conduct . The chairman deprecated all violence , bat thought Messrs . Ridley and Blackmore had brought it upon themselves . Ha declined putting their amendment , aud the resolution
waa of course carried . After several long and heavy addresses , another resolution w : ia put to the meeting , when Measts . Blackmore and Ridley again moved an amendment fur the Charter , and gave the respectabtes » severe laahiDg tot theii brutal conduct , and wtre of course heard with great impatience , though without physical violence being again employed against them . Mr . Spurr from the gallery with considerable energy supported the amendment , but was speedily cut short by the chairman putting to the meeting ^ whether they would hear him , which of course was carried in the negative , not more than six Chanists being present . The chairman again refurcxi to put tho amendment , and the meeting shortly alter wards separated , glorying in their brutal triumph aud eulogizing their ticket plan
of admission , which had enabled them to aot tbe part of ruffiins without immediately meeting with that justly-merited retribution which muat ultimately ensue if they persist in such unmanly conduct . The redoubtable Sidney Smith lectured od Friday evening , at the Scbool-rooui , under BibhopEgate Cb » pel , Bishopigatestreet , and fearful of meeting with a justly-merited vengeance for his conduct on tbe preceding evening , the room waa packed with , hired ruffians , boys , && The meeting was announced for six o'clock , a time at which but few of the working classes can attend , and shortly after that period Sydney surrounded by a host of Lcaguera , took possession ot the platform , and Mr . Wilkinson , common councilman , was immediately moved into the chair without even the formality of
being seconded . Mr . Mantz protested against this lino of conduct , and was about to move an amendment when he was seized upon by the respectables and thrown off the platform ; his clothes bting literally torn from his back , a few friends having with great difficulty iuade their way up t » his assistance , a determined resistance was made , and Mr . Mantz was again placed upon the platform . During the struggle a master baker conspicuous for the size of his body and the shallownesB oi ins brains , who appeared to act the part of leader t" the -faired ruffians surrounding the piatform . was guilty of the unmanly act of biting in a very severe manner , the thumb of a member of the City locality , and of kicking , in a desperate manner , and severely iijuring , another member of the same
body , and likewisa the reporter of this paper . The cowards finding that abont ten Ch . i . ista wtrea nutebfor their whole force persuaded their liberal chairman to send for the police , and the Chairman also stated that he would be generous enongh to prosecute at his own expense any Chartist who attemptod to express bis diaappr 6 bation of their unjudt proceedings . Several poiicemen immediately made their appearance , and Mr . Macz aud several other Chutists were hauled out'by a private door into an adjoining street , and then set at liberty , the cs wards not daring to sustain the charge . Sydney thinking himself triumphant immediately began boasting that the glorious victory they had obtained on that and the preceding evening , nt the Mechanics' Institution , orer the miscreant Ch&rtiBts , would ensure them uninterrupted meetings for the future . But , alas for the fallacy of human hopes ; this was the signal for tremendous disapprobation ; and from that moment scarce one word of the
Ucture could be beard beyond the precincts of the platform . The Chartist party * waa momentarily increating , and the whole time was occupied in cheering and ccuateicheeering from the respective parties . In vain did the police take man after man out of the room ; fresh recruits still entered . Tbe barah voice of Sydney was lost in the confusion ; and bis bitter invective fell unheeded save by his own Immediate employers . Mr . Mantz again mounted tbe platform at tbe opposite end of tbe room , and the Repealers seeing their party decreasing , and the ChartUta rapidly increasing , prudently dissolved the meeting , and in the wordB of tie Morning Herald , " Scampered off , leaving the place in possession of the Chartista , who made it re-echo with their cheers . " One -of the city locality having stated that he had some Cbartiat ammunition in his pocket was given in charge to the police ,-who found , much to their chagrin , and the amusement of the bystanders , that the ammunition consisted of Char * UstTracta .

TO THE EDITOR OF TUE NORTHERN STAB . Sir , —I have seen with rio small surprise , in your paper of last Saturday , a statement purporting t 6 have emanated from Mr . Leacb , at a meeting of South Lancashim delegates , to the foUowlng efFect : " The Hull Chartists were about to pass tbe Balance Sheet in the month of July last , when Mr . Hill entered the room and put ft stop to it . " ;
Mr . Leach has been misinformed . The Balance Sheet of last quarter never was submitted to any general meeting of the Cua'Usts of Hull \ if , therefore , the above statement has reference / as it appears to have , to the generml body of pur members , it is substantially incerrcct ; and I feel it to be my duty to call the attention of the gentleman who made the statement to that fact . If , on the other hand , it has reference to the CouncillpiB nlone , I sm given to underrtand that it is equally uutrue . Mr , Robert Jackson informs me that be was the person land not Mr . Hill ) who brought that rnatter before the Council , and so far from it being " about to be passed , " an animated dieeusaibn was at that momer . t goinrf on , aud the Council c me at last to nn unanimous vote to write Mr . Campbell for further information .
I concHive that I am actmg correctly in laying the facts of the case thus hTitfly before the pnblio , leaving it to the general meeting of » ur mtmboi-a , -wfeich is called for next Monday , to acknowledge , as best suite them , the compUnient which Mr . Leach has paid them as a body ; contenting myself with observing tbat , in so far as I am concerned , neither Mr . Hill , Mr . Leach , nor any other person , shall dragoon me into the entertainment or expression of views not in accordance with a strict sense of justice ; and from what I know of the men of Hull , in reference to them I come to the same conclusion . I am , Sir , Yours , -truly , W . J . Hollidat . Hull , Dec . 6 th , 1842 .

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NOnTHEKN STAB . Sib—In tho Sheffield Independent of last Saturday , appeared a letter signed " John Marshall , " enquiring what bad become of the monies collected and sent to the Star office for tbe purpose of bringing tlie remaini ot the martyred patriot , Clayton , to Sheffield , but whieh , owing to circaoistances , needless to be repeated here , were not applied to the purpose foi which they had been collected . The object of the writer of the letter has evidently been to bring odium upon the Chartists in general , and the Northern Star in particular , by causing the unthinking to believe that tbe monies in question had been wrongfully appropriated ; such was undoubtedly bis object , otherwise be would have written to yon ,
instead of to that bitter foe of Chartism , the conductor of the Independent . I believe application has been made to Mr . Ardill to Rive up the money to Mrs . Clayton , the widow of the deceased , but the money having been entrusted to Mr . A . for a special pu . rp . ose , that gentleman baa clearly no authority to give it up for any other purpose without the previous sanctWn of the parties who contributed to ft To bring this matter to an early sottlement , I would suggest the propriety of the parties who in Sheffield and elsewhere gave any donation to the above monies , meeting in their respective localities to decide by resolution what is to be done with the moBies in question , and each locality to
immediately communicate its resolution to the Northern Star . If I may be permitted to say a word as to the purpose to which the monies should be applied , I would respectfully suggest tbat they be given to the widow , Mrs . Ciayton , who is , I believe , in anything but prosperous circumstances , has many claims In point of family , Ice , on the kindness of her friends , and is every way woitb ; of every assistance that can be rendered her . Tour ' s , respectfully , George Julian harnex . Sheffield , No . 11 , Hartshead , Dtc . 6 th , 1842 .

- ¦ ¦ " ¦ . ^ P . . . . - THE NORTH LANCASHIRE DELEGATES TO THE MEMBERS OF TffE NATIONAL CHARrER ASSOCIATION , THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE , AND TO MR . HILL , EDITOR OF THE " NQKTJ 3 EBN SXAR . " Brother Chartists , —Deeply impressed with the necessity of Union at ail tim « a , but more especially at the present important crisis , when Government persecution is endeavouring to crush our movement by pouncing on those who have nobly stood forward in the
advocacy of our j ust claims : and when professing friends , assuming specious names , sporting the varied colours of the cameleon , and resorting to all sorts of wily tricks to entrap us , in order that we may serve their base and sordid purposes ; we deem it necessary to offer a few sober remarks on the very unpleasant differences that now exist at head quarters , trusting that we may be able by these means to allay those differences , which , in our opinion , ( judging from the appearance they now wear , ) threaten to impair , if not deetroy , our moral power and influence .
We faiive witnessed with sorrow and regret many times tbe paper conflicts of men professing our principles , and us of ten have hoped that what we were then reading would be the last , that surely a time would arrive when we could agree to differ on minor matters , without entering into a system of criminating and recrimlnatiug through , the columns of a newspaper , thereby retarding the progress of our own movement , and giving our enemies an opportunity of exulting over eur weakness j but , alas ! we have been miserably disapppointed ; aud it is again our painful lot to see the columns of the Northern Star affording materials for our . enemies to revel in . to our dwu destruction .
Having carefully examined the statements , pro . and con ., thak have appeared , we are obliged to say that the conduct of the Executive , in misapplying the fundB of the Association , and departing from the rules of-the Organization , is far from satifactory ; and We are also compelled to say that tbe language of Mr . Hill in sending the subject b efore the public , is calculated to injure the feelings of the Executive , and thereby cause rancour and ill-feeling to exist in our ranks . We axe decidedly of opinion tbat Mr . Hili / tM a member of tbe Ntttional Charter Association , had a perfect right to call the attention of his brother Cbattiats to tbe Balance Sheet , and also to offer his opinion thereon ; nevertheless it would have ' been more satisfactory to us to have Been it couched in milder language : kind admonition rather than harsh rebuke we consider , would have been better calculated to effect the object desired , therefore we cannot but attach blame to both .
For expressing the above opinion we mean no offence to either Mr . Hill or the members of the Executive , our sole aim being to heal if possible the breach tt > us made : and in order to take from our enemies a chance of using weapons of our own forging against us , ve are perfectly willing to bury in oblivion the part , and endeavour , to concentrate an imperishable Wjjog of energy , fortitude , and perseverance , in order , to free ourselves and our fellow slaves from the trammels of oppression and misrule . . / ¦ ' ¦ We have avoided going into the cbargea ' in detail , to prevent feel being added to the fire , for we have learned by sad experience , that when ouce an affair or this or any otter description ta complained of , J , Mtiea meddlibg In it have , by critiaising and picking , rinavoldably protracted the difference , aud at length made it a difficult task tof tj ^ tb ^ inad rjasajouthaa ruused .

It is really sickening to be perpetully at war amongst ourselves ; it is . e ought to drive Sterling-patriots , and useful members from our ranks ; it is therefore essential to smother those differences at ence . Let us pibSt by the past , and work fer the future with indomitable courage , perseverance and energy . . Iu conclusion , we would respectfully suggest to the Editor of the \ Northern Star to prevent the pages of that paper from referring any more to this affair , that whenever he feels it his duty to refer to the conduct of bis brother Chartists in -whatever capacity - they may be placed , to so convey hia opinions as to give the least offence . ¦ ¦ - .. ¦ . - .

we would point their attention to the rules and advise them , to insist on the members in their several localities , a rigid adherence to the same , tbat the Executive may not have to complain of the scanty means at their disposal to perfect and mature our organisation . lo bur brother members we would say forget the past ; let it go by as a passingbree ^ za ; let no trait in your conduct giva a handle to our enemies ; butlet | it be su 6 h that neither new move , new new move , Tory , or Cora-Law Repealer , may point the finger of reproach , and say there gees a Chartist ; let our motto be "Union , " our watchword Love , Truth our guide , aud our Charter the object in view ; we may then bid defiance to WBiggism and Toryism , New Moves , and New New Moves , Their combined forces cannt bnffla our efforts .

' ;¦ - Geentxemen ,- ^ I insert your liatter to myself and others most willingly . If the ' ex ' selL nt and patriotic spirit manifested by your letjier fteJEVaded all parties , there would be an end of that vifc # stem of criinination and recrimination , slander ; jau < i retort , Dlot and countet plot , wkich yoa w ^ justly deplore as the disgrace of our movernent , ^< J as hurtful to Hi interests . I fully reciprocate your sentiment , that " Union , necessary ; at all times , is more especially so ai tie present important crisis , when Government , -porseeution is endeavouring to crush our movemfint . " But
while I admit with you the necessity of union , I must also uphold that which is even gtilt more dear and valuable— principle , and truth , and honesty . These are the first matters to be looked for , and , in their absence , all others are valueless , or mischievous > and . while I bow with all deference to youv mild censure , I must atill think that in the matter of those" very unpleasant differences" I should have shewn a / zreat lack of all these , had I not taken precisely the course I- have taken , and even if . ill consequences should result therefrom , which I cannot anticipate , the censyrebelon « fl not at all to me , who have dono no more than was required by duty .
The second paragraph of yoiir letter , seems to have been written under , and is , at all events calculated to ongender , a ( grftat misoonoeption . It talks about our " agreeing to difFer upon , minor matters . " Now if the question veer © one of opinion ot minor matters , I would think myself deserving of a much deeper censure than the one contained in your letter if I could at such a time have introduced it . But this is not the , faot . The question is not o ' opinion , but of principle ; not of a minor matter , but of one absolutely vital to pur cause . It is no less a question than whether wo . as a boiiy , be honest in tbo avowal of our principles , or whether we propound them factiously in opposition to the ruling power , while we ourselves pay no regard to them . The matter of " confidence" . or " no confidence" in the particular men whose
conduct has given rise to the discussion forms in reality no part of the question . It ia eimply a question of whether the avowed principles of our association are to be recognized by us as an association or not . TChe . Star is the only , medium through which the members can communicate with each other , and hence its columns are of necessity the channel through which tho investigation is conducted . This will appear tho more especially necessary when youremeniber , 3 sin justice to all sideayoushould , that "kind admonition ' in the most full meaning of those words has been had recourse to , &r far back as July , last , npon the very same subject , but without producing any other effect than a more open and undisguised defiance of our principles and rules ; which the parties ventured to assure us they expected to find " hailed by the whole country with
delight" ! ' 1 cannot agree with you in thinking that the term . s in which my opinion has been expressed can be at alljfairly designated " harsh rebuke . " The fact that " kind admonition" administered in the kindest of all forms , by private , remonstrance produced only an agerayation of the evil i 8 proof enough that it was hi « b time for the pe pie to speak out ; I called their attention to the facts that they might do so . and I did no more . If I have been compelled- to the use of terms unpleasing to the Executive , you should remember that it was not . " in sending the subject before the public , " but in reply to the abuse of the Executive for the performance of iny " very unpleasant " duty . No mistake could be greater than that which you make when you say that : —
" The language of Mr . Hill in sending the stiV ject before the public , is ca l culated to ir jure the feelings of the Executive , and thereby cause ranconr and ill-feeJing to exist in oar ranks . " I cannot permit this sfatement in your well intentioned letter to pasB without convincing you of its being undeserved , by bringing again before you the exact" langaage" in which I did " send the subject before the country ; " I first called attention to the matter in the Northern Star of Saturday , the 12 th of November ; a » d I oid it in these wordB : —
" the quartbrlt balance-sheet o » ihk ¦ . ; . ¦• ¦ ¦ ¦' ¦ . . ¦¦ '¦ ¦ ¦; ' : ¦ - ¦ - . '¦ ¦ : executive . ' : - ¦ . ' . ¦ . ¦¦ ¦ . . ¦ . ¦ : :. w This important dooument will be found el ? ewhere inserted . We call to it the especial attention of all members of the General Counoi ) , and , indeed , of all members of the National Charter Association . We hope that every man will read it carefully , and that every man will refer oarefully to tho Plan of Organization , and read them together . Wise , active , and honest pnblio servants always thank the people for the exercise of vigilance . Nothing is so necessary and especially at this time , as that the people should look well to the conduct of those who have the guidance of their movoment and the control of their funds , giving honour to whom honour may be
due , and according such censure or admonition , as may serve to keep every foot in the strait and straight path . If the people have a fault , it is that they are frequently disposed to be too rem ? s in surveillano ©; whereby email deviations from . right practice , too often grow at length into frightful aberrations from principle , which compel them to cast off parties who with better watching might have Jong continued to be good and useful servants . Wo have neither time nor space this week for the directing of attention to many items in this document which we think specially deserving of rejEtard . Whether vfe may do . so next week or not , we trust that the people will at all events make themselves intimately acquainted with it : that they will read it caret ullv
along with the plan of organization , and observe strictly the degree of faithfuluesa with which the fund ? passing through the hands of their acknowledged servants have been appropriated and expended in accordance with its prpvfeions . We think the Executive have aright to require this of them ; it is well and necessary to exflibit , palpably rhe contrast between the mode of management adopted in like matters by the factions over whom the people have no control , and by their own appointed aud responsible public servants . Nothing tends more forcibly to illustrate the value of our principles than the comparison . between reckless class rapacity and stern democratic honesty . " . - Now , Gentlbmen , read tbat article again , and
then say if there is anything in it at all ' calculated to injure the feelings of the Executive "; and remem her that every word I have since said about it has been forced from me by the abusive violence of tho Executive , because of my having thus simply called public attention to the matter . Gentlemen , —I trust you now see that your kind suggestion to me to perform my duty in the least possibly offensive manner has been abundantly anticipated by me in this very matter . It was not Only my ' * right" as a Councillor of the Association , but my duty as a friend to the cause , and an honest Chartist , to enforce compliance with the rules and principles of the Association , aa far as my power went . I saw them grossl y violated by the Executive
; I joined my fellow Councillors , who first called my attention to it . in a "kind aamonitioh , " which me sent to them privately , simply because I was desirous to avoid " criminating throush the columns of a newspaper , thereby retarding the progress of Our movement , and giving our enemies an opportunity of «« lting ovor pur weakness . " For thei ^ ame j » Wtton 8 , I did all I possibly could to prevent others who had taken up the matter from making it publio and to induce to take a like course or kind" and private admonition "; and when at last , finding all this unavailing , I found my duty to " send the subjpct before the public" imperative I did it precf s * ly in the tenns which I have quoted above from the Star . ¦
• Gentlemen , I . have dose my duty . You have also done yonw . Your "kind admonition" I recede even thankfully ; because though given nndar misconception Jt was kindly meant" I wish tba like spintof charitable and honest CharUsm would I am , Gentlemen , , Yours faithfolly , Wm . Hjix .
