TRIUMPH OF CHARTISM OVER O'COXNELLISiL GKEAT PUBLIC MEETING IN THE BAZAAR . ( From the Scottish Patriot . J The result of the packed meeting on the subject of Iiords Stanley and Morpeth ' s Bills for Ireland , held la the Justiciary H&U , on Tuesday evening laat , determined the Chartais upon calling » real public meeting of the inluibitiHts of Glasgow , on Thursday , the 4 th , in the Bazaar , the largest covered place in the city , to take an expression of public feeling upon those meunrea ; also to consider the propriety of addressing her Majesty to rfrrmina the present Ministry . Before speaking of tin proceedings , ve may observe that the arrangements of the Chartista were o £ the most honourable a&d manly description . "The hour of meeting "was rigidly adhered to—the doors being opened only a few minutes before eight o ' clock . No ticket * of admission -were had
recourse to upon this occasion , except those for the hustings , which were epen to all parties . Long before the hour of meeting , Candleriggs-street ns filled by gn immense crowd of Chartists , O'Conaellites , and other inhabitants , and such was the press for front gtanding places , that in eight minutes after the opening of the door , the Baaaar , which is eakwtakted to hold 6 , 000 persons , was filled in every part- The excite ment , as the different parties crowded into the meeting was of the most intense description . Andbye-and-bye , a the leading Chartists and O'Connelirtea took their places on the hustings , the cheering , hissing , and hooting , wxs tremendous . The supporters of O'Connell and Whiggery might be distinguished by their savage yelling , and other brutal noises , and by their fiercelooking countenances and gestures . It was clear
that extraordinary exertions had been used by the Catholic party to bring in their adherents . Hundreds of workers &t tiie railways * ad other districts , where digging and cutting operations are going on , had been brought into the meeting . They literally came in droves , and their after conduct dearly proved that they must have had previous instructions to yell and hoot down every speaker known foe his Chartist sentiments . Even after the commencement of the business , their own leaders had evidently no sway over them . How different the conduct of the real inhabitants of Glasgow , and more particularly the adherents to Chartism ! Nothing could more clearly illustrate their perfect state of organisation aad high moral feeling than the accuracy and attention with which they answered every advice of their friends on the hustings , and the
orderly manner in which they conducted themselves Bat we will allow the proceedings to speak for tfaem-Bslves . The O'Connellites had mustered pretty strong on the hustings , and secured nearly the whole of the front seats . The getters-up of the meeting , however , speedily made a way for themselves , and were soon clustered around the chair . On the appearance of Messrs . Koss , iloir , Cnllen , Rodger , Jack , Partisan , Thomson , and R . Malcolm , jun ., they were received with hisses and groans from the O'Connellites , which , however , were drowned in one tremendous cheer from the Chartista . This first ebullition of feeling shewed the real strength of the Radicals , and the weakness of
their opponents . The Repealers , lurweTer , had determined upon moving a ( Tnnirmsn of their own ; and now a scene of tumult ensued which baffles description , solely caused by the untameabie and disorganised state of the Irish , who appeared to care neither for the advice of their leaders nor opponents . By dint of pure strength of lungs , however , they were brought ' to give S + metinng like a hearing to Messrs . Rodger , Bryson , and other gentlemen on the hustings , who managed to make them comprehend that a show of hands would be taken for a Chairman , and that ene for each party should be propssed . Four tellers being appointed , two for each party ,
Mr . Bbtso > ' was moved and seconded by the Repealers , as their Chairman-. On the motion of Mr . Jack , seconded by Mr ! Iaxcol : h , Mr . George Boss was proposed &s
Chairman . Tiie -rote being taken—notwithstanding the waving of haia and caps by tee O'Connellites—there were two to one hands for Hr . Ross—Mr . Bryson and a number of his supporters on the hustings , admitted what was apparent to every person with eyes in his head—that Mr- Ross had the vote . It was argued , however , that since the taking of the vote , 3 great number had come into the meeting , and that at this time it was no more than eight o ' clock . To quell their idle clamours the Chartists diTided the meeting . This was done in about
two minutes , those for Mr . Ross taking the right and front of the hustings , —those for Mr . Bryson being contained in the comer to the left The miserable minority for Mr . Bryson occupied no more than about one-fifth of the Bazsar . The Catholics now saw with regret the bad effects of their cry for a division , the whole of their supporters being now by themselves . Mortified by the appointment of Mr . Ross , who now took the chair amidst three tremendous cheers from the immense mass which filled the whole ep-ice except the left-handed oorner , the Repealers kep « up a continued shouting and Telling .
Mr . Bbystox , having stood up on the chair , announced to the Repealers that Mr . Ross was duly elected chairman , and expressed a hope that they would Ehow , by their peaceable and gentlemanly behaviour , that they respected themselves , and loved thtir country , and that they would give every speaker a fair hearing . Several Irishman loudly exclaimed against this ad-Tice , as tyranny of the worst Mud , and said that they ¦ would not submit to it- Thi 3 they afterwards proved by their howls and otter brute noises . The conduct of this party on the left hand corner formed a striking contrast to the calm and peaceable demeanour ot the rest of the meeting . Abo-st this time a fight commenced in the midst of them ; and two Chartists , who had presumed to cry out in favour of Mr . Roes , were brutally attacked by about a k # tb of moral force men . A strong posse of police , however , got over amongst them , and
succeeded in apprehending three or four R-pealera who had been most aeuve with their fists . This occasioned eome interruption , and Captain Miller no-w saw the necessity of stationing a best of bis men to keep the boys in order . The fact of about thirty policemen being stationed amongst the Repealers , and only two or three on the outskirts of the rest of the meeting , ¦ will give our readers some idea of the conduct and appearance of the Irishmen , and of the orderly , conduct of the Chartists . Although the noise was verv great during the whole evening , several of the speakers "were heard at a considerable distance from the hustings . Mr- Ross addressed the meeting as " Irishmen , Englishmen , and Scotchmen . " He thanked them for the honour they had conferred upon him at this time , and he trusted that all parties would shew , by their conduct that night , the Tims they place-1 in their principles , and their confilence in the justice of their cause . He then introduced
Mr . R- Malcolx , jan , who , after a short address , expressive of his desire to see a better display of fwling on the part of the uneufrancbised of Irs \ and-ana Scotland , and , M 3 regret that such a meeting a 3 lLa : held hx the Justiciary Hall should ever ba recorded in the annals of Scottish agitation , read the £ ist resolution : — " Ttitt while this meeting denounces , in the strongest terms , the unconstitutional attempt of th « Tory party , headed by Lord Stanley , to abridge the franchise in Ireland , hj an Act entitled the Registration Bill , wa at the same time cannot avoid expressing our settled conviction , that until the people of Ireland shall have taken their stand upon sound political principles , instead of following in the wake of faction , they never can hope to be able successfully to defbnd the shreds
of political rights , granted them by the Bifurm Bill , far less assert and obtain a full measure of justice , in the shape of a fair and equitable franchise . " He denounced , ia the strongest terms , lord Stanley ' s Kesistration Bill—showed that the Radicals of Scotland had always sympathised with their Irish brethren—and that their interests , in the question of an extended Suffrage , Were one and the same . He looked upon every stab at the liberties of the people oi Ireland as au indication of Whig or Tory feeling towards the people of the three countries , and hs wonld have Scotchmen and Irishmen to reflect that , in their dtttrmiDrd union against the common enemy , the landed aristocratic oppressor , consisted the safety and liberty of eath . and their poweT to resist the encroachments of tvrannv .
Mr . John Roi > ger seconded the resolution in a short and-energetic speech , aiso expressive of sj-nipathv with the wrongs of I . . eland , and of determined hostility to her Tory oppressors . The resolution being put , was carried unanimously . Mr . W . C Pattison , moved the next resolution : — " That while this mating expresses its hearty approval of every measure hayin ? for its object the extension of the Suffrage , we cinnot bat look cpou Lord Morpeth's Irish Registration Bill , which proposes a £ - Suffrage with a fourteen years' lease qualification , as
neither more nor less than another contempt Me effort oi the WMg Ministry to pepetnate their Administration at the expence of the cause of Justice , and wonld call « pon ererj honest man to aid our tirrtioLS to establish the principles of the Charter , viz .- —Universal Suffrage , Annual Parliaments , and the Ballot , as the law in England , Scotland , and Ireland—and would further declare that no measure or agitation short of Justice shall ever receive our countenance or snvport . " He exposed , with his accustomed ability , the nature of Lord Morpeth ' e Bill for Ireland .
Mr . Jack seconded the motion , and showed that the elective franchise in Ireland , by this measure of Lord Morpeth ' i , would be almost entirely vested in the hands of the landlord . Mr . Dokellt moved an amendment to the effect , that Morpeth ' s Bill was a good and useful measure , and that it ought to be sapporte . ! . This amendment being econded by another O'Cunnellite , the Chairman put it to the meeting , when the cluster in the Uf t-hand corner . Toted for it unanimously amidst the mos % vociferous elamonrs for the amendment , and the rest of the meeting as unanimously for the motion . The motion was of course , duly carried . We may remark en passant that nothing could be snore baautif ul than the order and reg tfanty of the votes of the Chartists . They hrid up their hands and tare a caeer as if actuated by oi leeung , and sunultaceoosiy took them down again ^ iL epeaIe rB l on the othfi * ^ d - «*«* the most disorderly ana tu multuous manner , and appeared not to ^ now either discipline or reason

Moved by Mr . W . a Pattison , seconded by Mr . J . Jack :-" That this meeting agree to Petition the Commons ' House of Parliament to address her Majesty to dismiss her present Ministers . " Mr . Green moved , and Mr . Donnelly seconded , an amendment ia iavour of keeping Ministers , in office . The motion was carried as before . Mr . Bodger moved , and Mr . Jack seconded , the next motion , which declared that the meeting in the Justiciary Hall was a meeting of a party * and not of the inhabitants ef Glasgow . An amendment in the shape of a protest , by Mr . Green , was made to this metien , which was also put and carried . Moved by Mr . W . C . Pattison , seconded by Mr . Maleolm , jon . : —
" That this meeting convey a cordial -rote of thanks to Captain Miller , City Marshall , and the Police , for their manly and praiseworthy exertions in preserving the peace of the meeting in the Jmaticiary Hall , on Tuesday evening last . " After & vote of ttianka to the Cbaiman—* nd three cheers for the Charter—three for the incarcerated Chartists—also three groans for Lord Stanley * Bill , and for Daniel OKtonnell , the mooting separated . GLASGOW , MARCH 2 . A public meeting was called here on Tuesday , the 2 nd instant , { two evenings before the above-mentioned meeting ) , which was held in the Justiciary Hall , to adopt a petition in favour of fcord Morpeth ' s Bill . The Cattbotte clergy , the middle classes , and the whole of
the tools of Dan ' s clique , wen present . The Chartista of Lanarkshire had called a meeting to take place on the same evening , but having found that the Whig meeting was called on the same evening , to " steal a march" upon them , they agreed to adjourn their own meeting , rather than allow public opinion to be stifled in this way . The O'Connellites had announced that their meeting would commence tX eight o ' clock , but at six they bad from 200 to soo of their friends present , who «« k admitted by ticket . The tickets were marked " Committee , " with two stars above the word , two of which came into the hands of Mr . J . Colquhoun , who held one up in the face of Priest Enry , who was speaking , and called upon the Chairman ( Bp . Murdoch ) to give him a hearing
but in this he could not succeed . Mr . Colquhoun determined not to be baffled without an effort to be heard , and be mounted the table , with the intention of demaxding an explanation from the Chairman as to who the parties were who dare issue those tickets . Imme diately he did so , a scene of confusion ensued which is not to be described . The upper end of the table and the jury box was snrrounded by Dan ' s friends , frera whom a universal rush was made towards Mr . C . His friends at th « foot urged him to keep his ground ; bnt he ,. seeing what must follow , extricated himself from the ruffians who had just got hold of him , and leaped among his own friends . By this time the business was said to be closed ; and on the gentry on the bench rising , one of them leaped on the table below , and
made an indiscriminate attack on those in front , cutting one man in the face before Captain Miller , who was standing on the the table , could get at him . The Captain seized the wretch by the collar , and pitched him on the floor , in a manner that indicated the worthy Captain did not mistake his man . A ^ boy , who got up on the top of tke jary-bos , was seisad by the hair , and dragged by one of the j « oroi-force gents , to the execration of all but fiends present . Another young man "was also abominably treated by some of those wretchesmen they cannot be called . The very priests on the bench were among the worst Dan may be proud of them . There could not be less than SOO in the hall , ¦ though it iB only calculated for , at most , 700 : there could Eot be anything abort of 1 , 500 outside .
It is needless to add , that the whole meeting was carried in the usual Whig style ; and the Right Rev . Gentleman refused to hear any but his own party .
