      Yuice— " That ' s very , very bad treatment , indeed . " ) These circumstances wer the temporary defeat of Ireland ' s Liberator , and he did BO to mike % demonstration in bis favour , and shew Ms political opponents that O'Connell was BtUl dear to the people of Ireland . ( Shouts . ) They knew it was the only recompense they could make him for bis defeat —they all knew that it was unnecessary for him to pass a panegyric or enlogium upon him , and he would therefore conclude , by aayinjc , that though it was one of the greatest honours to whio ' o . he could aspire ,

      the representing of his native county in Parliament , so it gas the greatest compliment that could be paid him to request nim to retire in favour of Mr . O'Connell . ( Here his eyes again rilled with tears , and his utterance became choked , strongly evidencing that the unfortunate gentleman was forced to speak against Mb feelings . ) He should conclude by proposing Daniel O'Connell , Esq ., as a fit—( here he had again to pause while struggling with his feelings)—and proper person to represent this great county in Parliament . ( Great yelling . )

      Mr . Beamish , ex-Member for th « eity , rose and was met with great uproar . He called upon them for a moment ' s attention . ( Yelling . ) He was called upon , by 'the electors of the county of Cork—{ a voice , " How many !")—to second the nomination of Ireland ' s Liberator . ( Yells . ) He looked npon the present juncture of affairs as all important , and as calling upon them to have as a representative for the largest county in Ireland him whom a temporary defeat alone—the decision of an adverse assessor , but which a Committee of the House of Commons would settle , as it had settled the non-remdpnt freemen in this city , would rectify . Daniel O'Connell now cane forward , invited by the county of Cork , and he ( Mr . B . ) was proud he came forward to solicit their suffrages , for whom a man had given way that bad faithfully and diligently executed his duties as their Member since 1832 . He seconded the nomias . tion . Mr . Roche was than nominated by Mr . Oaneey , of Charleville , and seconded by Mr . J . E . M'Carthy , of Raddone .

French of Merino , proposed Robert Lon ^ field , Esq ., barrister-at-law . Mr . Smrael Wailia Adams , of KilVre , amidst the greatest uproar , seconded the nomination of Mr . Long field . Mr .

      MERTHYK TYDViL ELECTION . Tuesday last having been appointed for the nomination of a fit and proper person to serve the office of a burgess in the new Parliament , the town was all alive at an early hour . Sir J , J . Gflest , the ex-member and Whig candidate , was proposed and seconded by Messrs . Crawshay and James . Mr . Argust then proposed Mr . Morgan Williams as a candidate ( tremendous cheeriDg and stamping of feet and indeed more than occe it was expected that the frail tenement in which they were assembled would come down to the ground . ) Mr . Henry Thomas seconded the nomination . The Returning Officer then put it to a show of hands ; but he declared that he could not undertake to decide which party had it . A second show of hands was then taken , and the Returning Officer declared it to be in favour of Mr . Morgan Williams , ( Tremendous cheering . )

      Mr . David James then demanded a poll , which the returning officer appointed to take place next day at eight in the morning , to close at four in the afternoon . Some convertation then took plae « , and the re > - turnng officer adjourned the court to & field , in which hustings bad been erected . No Booner had the hustings been taken possession of by the parties than the field was filled with people . The meeting was addressed briefly by Messrs Gnest ard Crawshav .

      Mr . Morgan Williams then came forward , and addrewd the asserablv at great length , first in English and then in Welsh . He said that at a former election he had supported in the strongest manner Sir J . Guest , while he was opposed by that very Mr . Crawshay who now supported him ; bnt he ( Mr . W . ) now opposed him because he saw that he was not what he had professed to be—the friend of the people . He was the supporter of a Governmest which had not offered them any of those so called blessings which they now held out , until the eleventh hour , when they saw that they were about to lose their place ? , and were prepared even to go the length of doing what one of their own associates , Lord Melbourne , called an act of

      madness , throw this country on foreign nations fer the means of getting its daily bresd , so that if-we vrere to quarrel with them we must be starved for want of that bread which we had forced our own farmers to give over growing for want of a market . A great boast had been made about their intention of giving cheap bread to the working man , but what did cheap brpad mean ! Why , cheap bread means cheap labour ; that was to say , that they would first reduce the price of bread by admitting the corn of the foreigner at a low duty , and then tliey would lower the wages of the workmen to meet the lowered price of corn , for every one knew that the price of labour was regulated by the price of cora . Now , with respect to this very mea 5 ure of a fixed duty of 8 s ., Sir J . Gnest said he was willing to give his full

      tuppon to the Government , and consequently was in favour of an 83 . duty , wiile his proposer ( Mr . Crawshay ) was for nothing less than an absolute free trade . There was consistency ! As to free trade , that was all a faliacy , if intended as a benefit . He would tell them what free trade was . The French made glove . * , which couid be sold in London at a cheaper rate than the English could- do it , and the consequence was that the English glovers were starving , while the French were well employed . To be sure , instead of giving them the mean 3 of maintaining themselves by honest labour , they offered them the merdes of the 2 icrr Poor Law , and the starvation Union workhonses . ( Loud groans . ) The Government , instead of diminishing the tax : s that grouud

      the poor workman to the dust , actually moreased them , and were now going to levy a tax on bread , that they might have money to corer a deficiency in the revenue , caused by their own bad conduct and incapacity . He frequently referred to a paper which he held in his hand , in Eupport of his propositions , and he was loudly cheered throughout his address . In the middle of his speech , however , the crowd was seized with a panic , occasioned , as it was supposed , by some one throwing a stone , which it was feared would lead to a serious disturbance . However , all passed off auletly . Mr . Morgan Williams called on them to be peaceable , for if they were not so ir would be laid to him . This produced an evident effect on them . He commented in severe terms on tha readiness of the Whigs to promise , but their utter disregard of their promises when they h&d obtained their

      purpose . He was much cheered . Mr . Morgan Wiliiajad-hei ^ g then asked whether ho intended to go to the pott , sa-id he did not . The Returning Officer then declared Sir J . Guest dniy elected , and the meeting separated , the Chartista rejoicing as from a victory , and the Whigs annoyed at being boarded and his&d , and at being disturbed in tke * ' even tenor of their way . " It is with pleasure that we do the Returning Officer the justice to Bay that he did his duty in the most fair and impartial manner , and was evidently actuated by an intense anxiety to eive satisfaction to all parties , which seemed a very difficult matter where there was so much violence and party feeling displayed , but we have heard since th&t all parties were perfectly satisfied with his conduct , and were convinced that he wishsd to acE in the very spirit of the solemn oath he had jast taken . — Wehh paper .

As near as we could gness , there were about six hundred , who walked fonr abreast , in the greatest decorum , to pay the last tribute of respect to their unfortunate and departed brothers . Thousands assembled to witness the sight , consisting of working peopleno managers , no cotton lords—none of those who live upon the industry of the masses . No , no ; the poor men were dead , and , of course , of no more service . We heard the deep sighs of many , and saw the big tears running down the cheeks of their poorer brethren , with repeated expressions of " poor men , " and "what will their poor wives and families dot" Before reachbg St .

      FROM OCB L 0 SD 3 N CORRESPONDENT . Thursday Evening , Ju < y 15 . The circumstance of damp , rainy , and disagreeable weather , which we in London have experienced for the last ten days , appears to have a most narcotic influence over politics and politicians , for there is rall y nothing to do , or doing . You only hear the grumblings of poor Whiglings , who kavemow made a most wondrous discovery—namely , that the Ballot is the grand panacea for all their troubles , those troubles being loss of place , power , and overbearing tyranny .

      I will merely give you one instance of their ( the Whi ^ s ) utter contempt of the people , though I have a number of cases at hand to prove more and worse actions . There is , in this metropolis , one Mr . B < mjamiu ArmstroDff , a Whig made magistrate of the county . This fellow has a number of small hdhses , which he farms , or compounds for ; all these houses give the right of suffrage to the inhabitants , or occupiers , upon the rates being paid . Well , to prevent their having votes , this good Whigling lets tha rates remain uupaid , and the poor people ba distrained upon for taxes which he ought to pay * and at the same time , he states he is a Liberal , though depriving men of their votes .. But it is all of a piece with m » u ! h reformers , when they have the workies under them—no chance will ba allowed to them ( the workies ) of exercising their vote , though thev have the educational and brick qualification ; and Whigs aad Liberals ate in favour < rf such a . ^ nall&O * iHM . ¦ *_ - — . - .

      Tower Hamlets . —A registration committee has beea formed , which is vrorkiDg well , and will , before long , relievo the borough from the presence of the Whig Fox . . The Police record of the week gives us a pretty proof how iaT justice is dispensed ia this metropolis , for you w . Il find Honourable Captaiu 9 aud scions of nobility getting clear , because policemen are not to be believed , when giving evidence against them , though a word against any poor wight , is sore to ba taken , and have full weight for their imprisonment .

      SERIOUS CHARGE OF FORGERY . Yesterday , Mr . Christopher Robinson Bell , of Bedford Place , Leeds , and Mr . Thomas Brown , of Manchester , were charged , before Messrs . Goodman and Cadman , at the Court House , with having forged the endorsement of Messrs . York and Sheepshanks , ef this towa , to a bill of exchange for £ 194 15 s ., with intent to defraud Messrs . Samuel Appleyard and Co ., manufacturers of lastings , &c , of 12 , Marketstreet , Manchester . Mr . Shacklkto . h , solicitor , appeared for the prosecution ; Mr . Natlob and Mr . Bond attended for the prisoners .

      Mr . J&mes , police-officer , stated that he was sent for to the Golden Lion Inn on the previous evening where the prisoners were given into his custody , on the charge of having forged a bill , of which the following is a copy : — " £ 194 15 s . Od . " Newcastle , 1 st July , 1841 . " Two months after date pay to our order one hundred and ninety-four pounds fifteen shillings . W . & J . Good . ( i Accepted—James "Harrison . "

      Untitled Article

      Mr . Samuel Appleyard said ne received the bill from the prisoner Brown , Bell being present at the time ; the endorsement of Bray , Brown , & Co . was there written by Brown . The bill was paid in part payment for goods sold to Ihe prisoners jointly , to the amount of £ 259 12 s . 0 d . They said they represented the firm of Bray , Brown , & Co ., and would send the balance of the invoice in caah . The bill was endorsed down to the name of Wm . Greenwood , when it was presented , and Brown wrote on it the names of Bray , Brown , & Co . Two papers found ia the pocket of the prisoner Bell were then put in ; one was an exact copy ( ia pencil ) of the bill , without the acceptance , and the other was a similar bill , unfinished , written on a stamp , bat for one hundred pounds .

      Mr . Sheepshanks deposed , that the endorsement of the bill purporting to be that of York and Sheepshanks , was not bis ; he had no partner ; nor had he ever authorised any person to use his name . He had no transactions with any such bills . The prisoner Bell had been formerly in his employ , aad though he could not swear positively , he suspected the writing to be his . He had had no transactions in business at any time with any of the endorsers on thebill . Mr . William Kirk , auctioneer , Leeds , knew the handwriting of the prisoner Bell , and had no hesitation in swearing that the signature of " York and Sheepshanks" was hi *; Thomas Harrison ' s signature he believed , was written by the same band , though more disguised . He thought the bill had been drawn by Bell .

      In cross-examination by Mr . Naymb . he said he first saw the bill thatmorning ; he had been fetched to the Court House , and was told on the way that Bell was in custody on the charge of forgery . It was two months since he had * seen Bell write , but he knew his writing perfectly well . Mr . Shackleton was present when the bill was shown to nim . This being the whole of the evidence at present obtained , Mr . Goodman said , the Magistrates taking into consideration the convenience of the prisoners ,

      they should remand them , to go before the Magistrates at Manchester , in order that , if they decided upon sending the cause for trial , it might come on at Liverpool ,- ' . this present Assizes , instead of being deferred till Karen next , at York . Mr . Naylor then obtained from Mr . Appleyard , in reply to questionB , that he and Mr . Shackleton had had an interview with the prisoners , that morning , in tho gaol , when he said , that if they could raise the money the prosecution should be abandoned . : ¦ ¦¦• ¦ ¦

      Mr . Bond , on the part of Brown , was instructed to say that he had an excellent defence'to'the charge ; but , as the magistrates had decided , ( and in the propriety- of that decision he concurred , ) on sending the case int » Lancashire , he advised that the defence should not be then opened at all . Mr . Navlor was of the samo opinion . The prisoners were , therefore , removed , in order to be sent to Manchester . We understand there arc other charges of a similar nature likely to bo brought against them , this not being the only bill to Which the endorsement of Mr . Sheepshanks has been forged .

      Mr . Buss stated the case . The prosecutor was a merchant at Leeds , and the prisoner resided at Ecoleshill . The prosecutor had known him for several years , and had had business transactions with him . After the 15 th of July , the prisoner bought of Mr . Buckle £ 20 worth of wool , and tendered in payment a bill for £ 25 . Mr . Buckle asked the prisoner if he knew the drawers , and he said he did ; they were woollen merchants , residing in South John Street , Liverpool , and that he had got the bill from them in payment for some goods . The prisoner , however , refused to indorse the bill , because he said : he was in difficulties , and was making arrangements with his creditors , and he did not like his name to be on the bill . Mr . Buckle

      took the bill , but he did not pay the prisoner , the £ o until he had setn what became of the bill . Mr . Buckle afterwards paid the bill as a collateral security to a person named Booth . He , Booth , and a person named Waterhouae , met together at an inn , and Mr . Booth refused to receive the bill until it had been indorsed by Btfokle and . Waterhouse Soon after Mr . Buckle went to Liverpool , and whilst there he made inquiries for the firm , but was unable to find one of that name . A policeman made a similar search with the like effect . Mr . Buckle afterwards went to Hamburgh , to see his father who was ill , and he remained thereabout five weeks , and returned on the 20 th Nov . In the meantime , the hill became due and was dishonoured , and after Mr .

      Buckle ' s return , Booth aad Waterhou 3 e applied far payment of the bill . Mr . Buckle having heard that the prisoner was in Rothwell Gaol for debt , went there , and took with him his brother . Some conversation took place , and the prisoner made the same statement as he did when he paid the bill to Mr . Buckle . Frequent applications We . re made by Mr . Booth to Mr . Buckle for payment of the bill , but in vain ; and in January the latter became bankrupt . On the 17 th of February , the sale of Mr . Buckle ' s effects took place , when Mr . Booth again applied for payment , but with no better success than before , and he then charged Mr . Buckle with uttering a forged bill , and threatened to get a warrant for him but did not do so till the 1 st of March . On the 2 nd of that month , the time when the protection of the law with respect to his bankruptcy was removed , he Went to Liverpool , where he remained tilltheUOih

      of April ( on which day his certificate was allowed him ) during which time he made further inquiries after the firm and ascertained that there was no such firm as that mentioned . He gave notice to Booth , Waterhouse , and the prisoner , that he would return on tho 21 st of April and meet them before the magistrates on the charge that had been made against him . He did so , and he was committed for trial for the offence , but was afterwards admitted to bail . Mr , Buckley after wards brought a charge against Hartley for uttering the bill , and on the 23 d he was examin ed and committed for trial . N either Booth nor Waterhouse were called to give evidence as to the circumstances above mentioned , and tha foreman of the jury stated that he knew a firm of Smith , Brothers , and Steele , at Liverpool , and had done business with them . -

      Mr . Wilkins made an excellent speech for the prisoner , and then called witnesses to give him a character . The jury retired about twenty-five minutes , when they acquitted the prisoner . There is , however , another charge of forgery against him .
