fit dective franchise . J-or toe waat of tnat ngnt far had got tha-National Debt , ; with : all its spsaidages , the interest of which , they annually had fcT psY-- < b ' earV hear " ;}—ancT unfil they got afl ofit they coald ' n ^ erhave ^ any peace . For the ^ xot of Universal Snffragetliey had an overgrown . Aristocracy , exendsng the JbB :-amount of their tsslth , and talent , and intelligence , in opposing by jfl the meat !? in their power , the demands of the peop ^ f ; and while the Aristocracy existed in this jote it would always be in opposition to the in terastsj aad prosperity , and happiness , of the working people jf fids kingdom . For the want of the Suffrage they i « £ an enormous standing army and an overgrown
{ iiiitb ; an ^ ^ Government , or rather the Joor Law Commissioners , who had almost all the wirer of government , were attempting to build jJssuTes all over the country . ( Bear , hear . ) While $ e Whigs were everlastingly preaching economy tier were filling the country with commissioners of jrefr description j and , for these reasons , he was satis-Jied that lie country could not be prosperous until tie people were put in possession of their political nehs . With these convictions , nothing could give iHa greaterpleasui © than seconding the resolution ( Cheer * . ) * - jir . Docglas , of Birmingham , was then introfaced to the meeting , and was received with very bad cheers . He said he came forward simply for
fat purpose of telling them that some of the men of guniuybam were there , for they required not the jBfacrnit ? nt 3 of eloquence , even if he had them to bestow , to excite them to a determined demand of jjjase lights without which they evermust be slaves . ( Cheers . ) There were three things which a meeting 3 fc 6 th « t indicated . In the first place , it indicated ihai there was , in reality , some grounds for the etmp laints they were making . They had been accused of travelling up and down the country for tbepnrpose of agitating the people ; but there never wsi a falser accusation against innocent men it to ihe country that was agitating us , and not they { & > -peakers ) that were agitating the country ( cheer ?) , and if Government wished to get rid of
acators they must likewise get nd of an agitated people . ( Cheers . ) Such then was the iirst lesson iiieh . such a meeting taught them , namely , tbil there were good grounds for the complaints liidi they made .. ( Cheers . ) The next lesson was liaithe people themselves were so completely con-Tjaced that there were such grounds that they went ^ Singly along with their leaders , and this was the jno& sinking and practical lesson of the three . It j &nred thai not only was there sufficient ground of smplamt , but thai the people "had sufficient power ttfet rid of its cause . ( Cheers ., ) Now he would not bHni the question . They must be made aware ifcat they had a great hiH to climb ; that in this cratest they must have no feather bed soldiering .
They hadmany enemies whom they must nght long cd earnestly , because they -would fight for good Sings . ( Cheers . ) They had the whole Aristocracy dthe country against them , for the exceptions were is few that they only proved the rule . Ihey had a pea : number of the middle classes against them tko . aid he was sorry to say that the £ 10 franchise lad given power , but not generosity of spirit to its ncaveM . { Loud cheers . ) They had , besides , the * iole of the clergy against them , in England , Iiebaid , and Scotland , aad they , too , were beginning to see in those demonstrations of the people , Mashing of the fearful looking for of judgment adfiery indignation of an insulted people . [ Loud
dass . ] They had the Whigs against them ; they lad * held up their hands against the Whigs j but sbejliad need to hold np both hands agamst the Tones . [ Cheers . ] But they ( the people ) had now tem t . their enemies a greater amount of strength ad uniry than ever they had before . They had bck con&&ence in their leaders , and more Emrimity of purpose . ( Cheers . ) Every one of &m were ready to lay aside their idols , and go at odk for the great u one thing needful . " ( Loud daers . ) Mr . Attwood had a hofrby wHcli he rode iaaonalv ; bat the people "hid made him descend 2 oa it / and informed him that he must ride upon Bother one . Mr . Fieldenmust give up his hobby
rfd « Poor Law . ( Cheers . ) They had got the pKyte to come down from the hobby of the Com Laws , Eiithfi men of Glasgow had passed a unanimous resolution to the effect that they would not go afstst any law until they had obtained Universal ScSbge . ( Tremendous cheers . ) In the simplicity of tharpurpose , therefore , and in the unity or their 4 esgn tht-y had greater hopes of success man ever tier had had before . [ Cheers . ] He would not now naerate their wrongs ; buthe could not help noticing a Stile l ) lack flag in commemoration of the bloody £ » T of Petfirloor As Christians , indeed , it was &sr duty to forgive the bloodshed of that day ; bnt » i nan , he should feel ashamed of holding any
otaamanication with the people 01 Manchester , Sfier they forgot it . ( Cheers . ) He thought it ?« essary that the meeting should now hear a little JB reference to the deputation which was about to be » ii to London , He felt sure they would appoint « r that purpose good men and true—but those men Enisbesupported , and obeyed , too . Those forty-1 * iis dt-lefates must be placed in such a position flat to their dictates there shall be no grumbling vej shall not . and should not—they must not travel « u of the record of your petition , or you should tt ^ ia- them—if they go tor that which is not in «* petition , you should do so—and if they fail to P > fe that which is in it . you should take the same

" — ( Qaers . ) They were strong as giants wHlstthey *^ t themselves within i 3 ris circle , but we ^ k as «! feen if they exceeded it , —and if ever the" time CH » e , when law and order were set aside , or atkapted to be put down by their oppressors , woe be 10 tbose that created the circumstances . Let the JWjiie always act on the defensive , and never on the *« Dave , and on those who acted on the " ^ aare , j et ^ h& burthen lie . —( Hear , and loud ta * ws . ) Let the people of England meet ad those

Coluss , of Birmingham , then said that when k iak firstviewed the vast assembly before him , it *» Jbeen with mingled feelings which could never be ^ fofien , and he had heard many individuals re' tece around Vt-m at tie grandeur and-magnificence tffta spectacle before them —( cheers;)—whilst . ««* frer , he acknowledged this fact , ^ he had still to ^ pei and lament the cause which had brought them ^ falter . ( Hear . ) He would say that the strongest *? ntent as to the bad policy of the present
Gdvern-3 asat } was the fact that it kept the country in such a ** & of agitation , as compelled tens of thousands ^ iHuidreds of thousands to assemble as thsj had ^ ei ? res 3 their indignation , and their feelings that ** preseni Government shotid be " removed from I ?** - ( Loud' cheers . ) A fair trial had been given 15 *—tie people of Binningham had assembled in "SrfaTonr , and to promote the Reform .

j ^ *™ they claimed , yet , tney ~ said , they were so ^ ° rant , so poor , and to immoral ; that thpy -were ¦^* ortbr to possess it . There certainly was some lj ?* £ in the charge of honesty , which was made JP ^ them , for surely they need not be called on z ^ oit the justice of the complaint , which cast the | £ * w odium on those who preferred it and which ™ ° - * from their dishonesty .

saw . many there who ooght , even th « n , to hate been on their way home . He was happy lo tell them that aa oldman , who had-been a democrat for 33 years , had ; now ; an opportunity , of addre ^ ang them j and he could asaire ttem that he would go with them heart and hand . { Loud -cheers . ) .

of Rochdale , Mr . B . O'Brien , lor the town of Manchester , the two Marshals of the day , Mr-Nightingale , and Mr . Richards , also Mr . Cobb « tr , and Mr Wroe . { The Speaker pnt each name in jriccfssjoo , all of-whom were responded to satisfactorily . ] He truStfd they had approved ofthe name ? , that they would support the dt-lt-gates lhronghall -their precarious duty , and to protect them ; and if the rascally Whigg dared to lay a hand on them , and the people inbtnitted to tlie interference , they would deserre to live enlv whnt they were—fit objects to be slaves . They mnst stand by and see their delegates safe out of the lion ' s month . For his own part he would support them and their cause as long as he had breath to draw . ( Loud cheew . )
Mr . Whittle then came forward , and . said he had addressed them in worsft times tlian they now enjoyed , en the subjects of Parliamentary Reform iuad _ Universal Sfiffrage , and other matters of n political nature . Since then they had bad the R « - jorm Bill , and he w * s ready to admit that they had accented it for the hour as one step towards accomplishing that which they reqnirtid . He had heard one name mentioned that day , a name which had ^ become degraded among his countrymen . He alluded to Daniel O'Connell ; but nlthooph he was stirprised at the conduct or Mr . O'Connell . he was happy to say that he was taking the best possible course to serve them , for he was removing a serpent from their path . [ Hear . ] He had made himsel ) known in his sentiments , and he was doing all tial he could to sacrifice the labouring class , as he hdil sacrificed the 40 > . frerholdf . rs . He had besides
fnrmshed one more nselul lesson—he had shown them that if they meant to do theteselvcs a servicf they ¦ must rely on themselves . He wouldmostespecially enjoin fiiem to use all their energirs to sapport their delegates . [ Hear , hear , and cherrs . ] Mr . Lowjit said he had come from Newcastle , Sunderland , and Shield . * , to offer them , in the uanie > ef all these places , the right hand of fellowship , and to express their readine . -s to abide by them in whatever they mig >« t deemit expedient to no . Thev must wrest the p <» wrr from out of the hands of their oppressors . ( Great choeriug . ) They had not turned without cause aipunst the aristocracy . They had honoured the throne , and they had honoured the
aristocracy as lou ^ as they could ; now thev ongL i to act for the people . They had been told that the aristocracy were aetermined to go against tiiem , but it" mattered little ] f the pe-ple wi-re true to themselves , and if they would stand and be ready with their purses and their persons , as need might require . He was ^ lad to see that the wdolesoirie admonitions of Mr . CoVbett and Mr . Hunt had not been forgotten . ( Long and loud cheering . ) He had confidence in the people that they would all do their duty . They mnst be well aware that they were fa > t approaching that crisis when Government must grant all their demands , or pnt them down . They had only sincerely to will I : that they should be free , and they could be iree . iCUeers . 1
Mr . Cliff , of Halifax , then addressed the meeting in a short but effective speech ; in which he congratulated the men of Manchester on their splendid demonstration , infoTmed them of the Peep Green meet ing on the loth of next month , and assured them that the men of Halifax aDd Yorkshire generally were with them in heart and hand . ( Cheers . ) ' "Mr . Piebce , of Birmingham , would only congratulate them on the demonstration of that day . After a few energetic remark ? , he concluded with expressing Ms hearty concurrence in the proceedings of the day . Dr . Fletcheb rose to moTe the fourth resolution , while-the rain was powering in torrents . He wa >
dehghted to look round him and see 5 uch numbers assembled . He was proud also to tbink that it was the working men ot Lancashire , and the weaver boys in particular that had originated the national association . He urged upon them the necemity of support ing the principles npon which tht-y had set ont , and ' -dtsdorad . it wa « -hwowii 4 t ? t « nniwat > on UttV » T to swerve from these principles . He woald make it his proudest boast that he . never swerved from his pohacal consistency . The Whi g * were coutinu ; dly tinkering the constitution , but they were like tbe tinkers in mending a kettle , they mended one hole and made two . He alluded to a remark which had
been made by Mr . Robie at a merlins of Conservatives , when ne ( Mr . Robie ) had said he supposed they meant him to drink totbatlittle of the constitut ion which remaiiied . He wonld ask thuta what it was that they had to conserve ? Their principle object was to promote the iuttrests of the working class ; and by giving them their rights they wohlu find it tlie best means oi proiectiug property . He concluded with morng the resolution . Mr . Taylor ,- of Rochdale , Bfconried the resolution . He ¦ would only remark that there were few men in the House of Commons townom they could entrusttheir petition to present , nor even to support it . There were very few like their Hon . Chairman .
It had often been asked what was the reason ao lew of the prayers of the petitions had been responded to ? He could tell . them that it was because they were not represented , ajid il they would have their petition attended to , they must alter their condition . Mr . Dvtty had great pleasure in ad < ire !? siiig tbe meeting , which he had come purposely from London to do . After a few observations on tne principle ol the People ' * Charter , he expressed his astonishment at the line of conduct Mr . O'Counell was pursuing , who , he said , had drawn himself away Iroin the
people of England , and was bugging the bloody and dastardly Whigs . Mr . Isightisg ale , in a neat speech , moved a vote of thanks to be passed to the authorities of Manchester , &r the manner in which they Lad acted . He drew a contrast between the siiuatiou in which they then stood in 1838 , and the situation in which they had been placed by the authorities in 1819 . He was sure the meeting wonld readily respond to the resolution . Mr . Richabdsox seconded the resolution .
Itwas then moved that Mr . Fi ^ lden leave the chair , and'that the chair be taken by Mr . R . Cobbett , wh . ch was agreed to . The last resolution was then proposed , embodying a vote of thanks to Earl Stauhope and Mr . John Fieldea . The re > olution was carried unanimously , amidst tremendous cheering . Mr ; Whittle then begged that the meeting would give three groans for tlie three Devil Kicg-s the J ? oor Law Commissioners , which wasinstautly complied with in awfal groans .
Mr . Fielues returned thank * . He expressed himself-much gratified at the honour they had conferred oh him in calling him to the chair , and still more sa with the orderly manner in which they had conducted themselves . He spoke particularly of the circumstance of the authoritiesof M apchester having declared that they did not intend in any way to interfere with the meeting . After the gentleman had finished speaking the multitude almost to a man cried ont for three . cheer » toPeargus O'Connor , which were given , and also three cheers for the authorities of Manchester . The Hon . Gentleman having conclnded his brief speech , he prorogued the meeting , and the people , who had stood in the heavy rain , males and females , dispersed as quietly and in as good order as if they had come from church .
The following are the resolutions which were passed : — 1 st . That this meeting adcpt 3 the principles of the " People's Charter" as published hy the Working Men ' s Association of London . -2 nd . That this meeting adopts the National Petition , as agreed to at Binningham , and thai the persons now present at this meeting pledge themeelves to sign the same . 3 rd .

LIVERPOOL GREAT RADICAL DEMONSTRATION . Notwithstanding the unpropitious state of the weather and the most strenuous exertions of grinding masters ,. , the people gf Liverpool nobly did their duty on Tuesday last . The meeting which we abridge from the Liverpool Courier-, was . heldin tht iDfi . mary Yard , when from 5 to 7 , 000 hardy working men , stood for several hours under pelting raiu and the inspection of their master , who came as sp 5 es in great numbers , to discover the delinquents and to watch-the proceedings . From the time that the meeting commt-nced tili its close , several thousands came and went at meal times anxious to catch a glimpse and testify their approval . Orders were
issued by employers that their men should not attend , " but the men were not to be intimidated . This was the first out door Demonstration that the working people have had , and when we consider the many adverse circumstances , it was not less important than any of the immense meetings which have lately been holden . The huntings was spacious and well situated , capable of accommodating about 70 persons , and upon which we observed many of tbe middle classes . The popular speakers were loudly cheered as they presented themselves , and notwithstanding an anxious desire upon the part of some mongrel " Whigs and Tories , all attempts at riot iind di .-order were instautly subdued by the f ; ood sen . * e and discretion of the people .
On the motion of Mr . John Robinson , seconded by Mr . Poole . Mr . ( joodfellow was appointed to thV chair . Thr Chaiuman addressed the assembly as fellowworkmen , and said he had been appointed to take rhecl . nir on this moment . ms occasion He assumed tbe office with great diffidence , as be wns not ac » custotued to address such an assembly , but he ini ^ ht safely say that this was the proudest moment of hi > li ! e . The working classes <"> f this town had lung heeu noted for their good behavionr at public meeiin ^ s , and he donbted not on this occasion they would show that they merit ed the character whicb th < yhfid attained in this respect . He neetl not say he was gl > id to see tbe working closes ibus stepping forward to assert their rigbLs . It would be unuece . * -
sary for him to repeat his hope thnt every inuiyidual would keep tbe greatest qtiiet and order . Their enrmies runst not Iiaveit to say that they were an unruly and disorderly mob . They met that day lor the purpo . < e of couM-teriug upon the Ik-si means ol attuininK Universal Suflrage , Vole by Ballot . Yearly Prtrliamen ts , No Property Qiialific « tion , aiid Pctym nf of Members . He would not trespass further upen their time , ai Jhey bad many eloquent speeches to hear from individuals much more cftpnble than hf was of expounding to them the principles which they advocated . Once more be recomineuded peace and gooJ order , and should procee . i to business . He should call upon a working man— 'his friend , Mr . Robinson , who would propose the first resolution .
Mr . John Robinson also addre-s « d the assembly as ieliovr-workiueu . lie was culled npou to bring under their notice a resolution , which cuutaiiied u great and importaut principle ; a principle uhich il carried out to its full effecw , could not fail ultimately to briug peace aud couteut , and to work beneficially for tbe people » f thin Jand . The principle to which he al ' . uUed was Universal Suffrage—bear and partial ehefring—or the right lor e \ ery man in this naiiou to vote for those who should jepreseut the us-ople iii the CouimoKS Hou =-e of Parliament . This wns a pr iuciple which was gronud ^ d ou truth and justice , aud their worst eiieiuiey , while they oppived it , dare not deny the justice oi it . It was their right , and no arxumente had ever yet been advanced which could impugn lhat right . ' While their enemies dare
not deny the justice of iliis principle , they vuinVu them as ignorant and unleameiJ ; they said they were so ignorant that they were not tu be entrusted wirh apivi . egeso great as th . t of voting for theinftelve- ' . If they were to change place * with tho . ^ e who talked thus , if they had the power , what would be said if they acted , not upon the principle of Christian chanty , which said , do unto others as you would they / should do unto you , " but upon the ' principle of doiug t » them au they bad done while they were in power ? If they did " thus , would tbry not usurp « ili the place aud power , and grind down their oppra * sors as those individuals b « d groui d them down?—Hear , hear . —liut they would notuu 3 , _ lheir principle was not of that nature ; it wa < loo ho ' y and just aud goou—tney were lor equ . 1 rights und rqual privilegnij . —Cheers .
Mr . George Edmonds , of Binninghamf was next called upon . He said , when he came on that phitfonn , iu looking out for a Radical fac « , _ htf had accidentally hit upon one , which was that of the . last speaker who had addressed them . It wasareinnrkable circumstance tliac , twenty years ago , th ; tc iudi \ idual was present at a tnvat meetina in Birmingham , which was held at Newball-hill , for the purpose of advocating Universal Su H ' rage . H e must say that if th « meetim / had bad no othereifHct than * J extend principles that had had such an effect , —it it had brought forward such a man who hud juined with tho » e of" similar opinions iu Liverpool , ic had uot been he ' . d in vain . He came to Liverpool delesated bv the Birmingham political connexion , and
he was glad now to hud at the present moment , that the people of Liverpool were associated for the Httniument of their rights , ! or advocating which he was sent to prison for nearly twelve mouths . Doctor Dodd bad wntten his Pnson Thon » ht « , and he also could tell them pr isou thoughts , many and bitter ; but the fruit had been knowledge , and they knew that knowledge was power . H » bad assisted his excellent Jrieml , Mr . AttwoDd , in framing ihe Political Union of Birmingham ; and if" that body had doue nothing else , it had at least established the important ana essential fact , that the Reform Bill , lor which they bad so loug contended , was a delusion . It was admitted on all bauds , that the association to which he allndad had been mainly
instrumental in carrying that important measure . If that union could carry that measure , what ongat the people now to carry , wish the additional knowledge and power which they had obtained ? He rejoiced that he was called upon to take part in the tirst grand struggle for their just rights , iu the attaimnsut of wnichhe knew they should not tail . He rejoiced in this grand * movement . It was a grand movement , because it called for an arrangement <> n the first principles uf society , for the rights of man . the inalienable rights of the people . [ Cheers . ] Instead of the comparatively trinmg numbers he he saw before him , there © nght tohave been tens ol thousands present . What was tbe reason ? Why , that their oppressors had extinguished the souls out
