TO MR . PROUT , 229 , STRAND , LONDON . Hawley , near Bagshot , Jan . 11 , 1841 . SIR , —It is now twelve months since I made you acqvia . nted with the very extraordinary benefit I have derived by taking Blair ' s Gout and Rheumatic Pills , which were kindly recommended to me by Major Birch , of Crondale , near Faruham , who humanely came to my house to take my affidavit , that I might receive my half-pay , being then laid up with one of my serious attacks . I then forwarded to you the Garrison Order by which I was invalided home from Newfoundland after many years of great suffering . I now beg further to say , that , within the last twelve months , I have had several attacks , but bare , thank God , with the assistance of the Pills , been always able to ward it off without much pain , and have not once had a return of those weakening perspirations which formerly afflicted me , and am now in excellent comparative health . I have also to inform you that Mr . George Maynard , of Cove , near FarnborouKh , carrier , hiving witnessed the effect of Blair's Pills on me , and being himself attacked with Gout , tried the Pills , and obtained immediate relief . If you please you may publish this additional proof of the value of this medicine . I am , Sir , yours , truly , J . Masters . GARRISON ORDER ABOVE ALLUDED TO . ( CERTIFICATE . ) St . John ' s , Newfoundland , 12 th March , 1838 . Conformably to a Garrison Order , dated the 9 th of March , 1838 , for the assembly of a Medical Board , to take into consideration the state of health of Lieut . Masters , R . Y .

OLD PAKR'S LIFE PILLS . MORE PROOFS that thi 3 noted Medicine will restore to health the afflicted , and continue in sound health the recovered . Read the following from a soldier , discharged from her Majesty's service as incurable , aftor having the advice of the most celebrated physicians : — " To the Proprietors of Old Parr's Pills . " Gentlemen , —I feel it a duty I owe to you and to the Public at large , to acknowledge the astonishing benefit I have received from taking * Old Parr ' s Pills . ' 1 was for nearly nine years in the 52 nd Regiment of Foot , but was discharged in the year 1839 as incurable , after having the best advice her Majesty ' s service afforded , being pronounced consumptive ; I then returned home to Hinckley , whero my attention was attracted to Old Parr ' s Pills . I was induced to purchase a 2 s . 9 d . box , and from that moment I date a renewal of niy life ; for oa taking one box , I immediately began to recover , and two 2 s . 9 d . boxes more completely cured me . " I am , yours mait , « bediently , " John Osborn . " Witness—James Burgess , Bookseller , &c . &c , Hinckley . The following extraordinary case of cure has beeii communicated to the Wholesale Ageat for Parr ' s Life Pills , at Nottingham : — Mrs . Joseph Simpson , Church Hill Close , Old Lenton , near Nottingham , has been severely afflicted for the last thirty years , with a violent cough , and difficulty of breathing . The affliction has been so severe that she could not fulfil her usual domestic obligations . She took cold when only fifteen years old , and the cough never left her till she took Parr ' s Life Pilla . She had tried almost every kind of medicine , and had taken laudanum in large quantities , but nothing afforded relief . She heard of Parr ' s Pills about last Christmas , and as soon as she had taken about half a box , she found herself completely cured , and was never affected in the slightest manner during the severe weather that followed , and is now better in health than she has ever been in her life . This cure does indeed appear miraculous , but for the satisfaction of the most incredulous , she has kindly consented to answer any inquiries , either by personal application or by letter , addressed " Mrs . Joseph Simpson , Church Hill Close , Old Lenton . " Two remarkable ease 3 ( selected from many others ) communicated to Mr . Noble Bookseller and " Printer 23 , Market Place , the Agent for Hull . Mr . Plaxton , of Cottingham , five miles from Hull , had long been afflicted with a most severe internal disease . So dreadful were the paroxysms that he frequently expected death was at hand to release him from his sufferings . For a great length of time he had been unable to sit down at all , evfn being compelled to stand at his meals . His next - door neighbour having heard of the virtues and unprecedented success of " Parr ' s Pihs , " purchased a small box for him , and en his calling for a second box , he told me that such had been the astonishing effects produced by one box , he was able to sit dtwn , and on taking two other boxes , his pains hare le £ t him ; his appetite is good , and he is able to follow his vocation nearly as well as he has ever been in his life . Mrs . Shaw , wife of Mr . Shaw , yeast dealer , had been for a great length of time afflicted with a severe internal disease . To use his own expression , u piying doctors for her had beggared him , " bo that at last he was compelled to send her to the Infirmary ; there she received no permanent benefit . Having heard of "Parr's Pills , " he purchased a small box ; she began to mend immediately on taking them , and two more boxes have cured her . She is as well as she ever was in her life . Mrs . Stephonson , of Cottingham , five miles from Hull , has been severely afflicted with a bad leg for more than ten years , and during that period has pried all kinds of medicines , but without any Permanent relief . After taking four small boxes of Parr ' s Pills , she is able to go about her day ' s business in a manner which for comfort has been unknown to her for above ten years . Signed , Edmund Stephenson , her Son . Witness—Joseph Noble , Hull , May 8 , 1841 . " To the Proprietors of Parr ' s Pills . " Mrs . Ann Lamb , of Haddington , in the Parish of Auborn , bought two small boxes of Parr ' Pills , at your Agent ' s Medicine Warehouse , Mr . James j Drury , Stationer , near the Stone Bow , Lincoln , for her son Jesse , who was suffering very badly from Rheumatism in the hands , knees , and shoulders ; he is seventeen years of age , and in service , bat was j obliged to leave his place from the complaint . The j two boxes completed a cure on him , and Mrs . Lamb bought a third box of Mr . James Drury , last Friday , for him to have by him , and to take occasionally . \ He has now returned to his place , free from Rheu- j matism . j " This statement , by Mr . Robt . Lamb , and Ann , hia wife , parents of the youth , is given that others may benefit by those invaluablo Pills , Old Parr , and they j will willingly answer any enquiries , and feel very i thankful for the good they have done to their son .

Just published , in Demy 8 vo ., BY MESSRS . PERRY & Co ., CONSULTING SURGEONS , 44 , Albion Street , Leeds , ( Private Entrance in the Passage , ) and 4 , Great Charles Street , Birmingham , ILLUSTRATED BY EIGHT FINE ENGRAVINGS , THS SILENT FRIEND , A PRACTICAL TREATISE on Venereal and Syphilitic Diseases , in their mild and most alarming forms , shewing the different stages of those deplorable and often fatal disorders , including observations on the baneful effects of Gonorrhoaa , Gleets , and Strictures . The Work Is embellished with Engravings , representing the deleterious influence of Mercury on the external appearance of the skin , by eruptions on the head , face , and body ; to which are added very extensive observations on sexual debility , seminal weakness , and impotency , brought on by a delusive habit , all its attendant sympathies anddangerous consequences considered , with the most approved mode of treatment and cure , without confinement or interruption from business , the whole accompanied by explanatory engravings , with general instructions tor the perfect restoration of those who are incapacitated from entering into the holy state of Marriage , by the evil consequences arising from early abuse , or syphilitic infection . This invaluable Work will be secretly inclosed with each box of Perry ' s Purifying Specific Pills , ( Price 2 s . 9 d ., 4 s . 6 d ., and lls . ) and the Cordial Balm of Synacnm ( Price lls . and 33 s . per bottle ) , and is pointed out to suffering humanity as a Silent Friend , to be consulted without exposure , and with assured confidence of success . PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS , Price 2 s . dd ., 4 s . 6 d ., and lls . per Box , are well known throughout Europe and America , to be the most certain and effectual cure ever discovered for every stage and symptom of the Venereal Disease , in both Bexes , including Gonorrhoea , Gleets , Secondary Symptoms , Strictures , Seminal Weakness , Deficiency , and all diseases of the Urinary Passages , without loss of time , confinement , or hindrance from business . They have effected the most surprising cures , not only in recent and severe cases , but when salivation and all other means havo failed ; and when an early application is made to these Piils for the cure of tho above complaint , frequently contracted in a moment of inebriety , the eradication is generally completed in a few days . Tee rash , indiscriminate , and unqualified use of Mercury , has been productive of infinite mischief ; under the notion of its being an antidote for a certain disease , the untutored think they have only to saturate their system with Mercury , aud the business ia accomplished . Fatal error ! Thousands are annually either mercurialised oat of existence , or their constitutions so broken , and the functions of nature go impaired , as to render the residue of life miierable . The disorder we have in view owes its fatal result either to neglect or ignorance . In the first stage it is always local , and easy to be extinguished by attending to tho directions fully pointed out in the Treatise , without the smallest injury to the constitution ; but when neglected or improperly treated , a mere local affection will be converted into an incurable and fatal malady . What a pity that a young man , the Lope of hia country and the darling of h ; 3 parents , should be snatched from all the prospects and enjoyments of life by the consequer . cc 3 of one unguarded moment , and by a disease which is not , in its own nature , fatal , and which never proves so if properly treated . It is a melancholy fact that thoasands Ml victims to this horrid disease , owing to the unskilfulmFS of illiterate men ; who , by the me of that deadly

poison , mercury , ruin the constitution , causing ulceratione , blotches on tho head , face , and body , dimness of sight , noise in the ears , deafness , obstinate gleets , nodes on the shin bones , ulcerated sore throat , diseased nose , with nootural pains in the head and limbs , till at length * general debility of the constitution ensues , and a melancholy death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings . These Pills aro mild and effectual in their operation , without mercury , or mineral , and require no restraint in diet , loss of time , or hindrance fro m business : possessing the _ power of eradicating © very symptom of the disease in its worst stage , without the least exposure to the patient ; they are particu - larly recommended to be taken before persons enter into the matrimonial state , lest the indisoretions of a parent are the source of vexation ^ to him the remainder of his existence , by afflicting his inpocenfc but unfortunate offspring with the evil eruptions of a malignant tendency and a variety of other complaints that are most assuredly introduced by the same neglect and imprudence . ^ It is only by purifying the vital stream from insidious disease , that the body can be ^ preserved ia health and vigour . Hence the infinite variety of complaints an infected Btate of the blood induces , and hence the new and deceptive forms a tainted habit puts on , which often deceive the most eminent of the faculty , and baffle the best intentions towards a CUTS . In those disorders wherein salivation has left the patient uncured , weak , and disheartened , and when no other remedy could restore the unhappy sufferer to that health which ho has unfortunately lost , the Purifying Specific Pills will be found the only effectual and radical remedy ; and have ever beea successful , though administered in many desperate cases of Evil , Scurvy , and Leprosy , as well as removing Pimples from the Face , Sore Legs , or other disagreeable Eruptions on the head , face , and body . Price 2 s . 3 d ., 4 s . « d ., and lls . per Box . Prepared only by Messrs . PERRY & Co ., Surgeons , 44 , Albion-street , Leeds , ( Private Entrance in the Passage , ) and 4 , Great Charles-street , Birmingham . fSB" Observe , none are genuine without the signature of R . & L .

THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM is intended to relieve thosa persons , who , by an immoderate indulgence of their passions , have ruined their constitutions , or in their way to the consummation of that deplorable state are affected with any of those previous symptoms that betray its approach , as the various affections of the nervous system , obstinate gleets , excesses , irregularity , obstructions * weaknesses , total impotenoy , barrenness , &c . A perseverance in its nse has been the happy means of relieving many thousands , and of restoring a great number to the permanent enjoyment of lite .

MEDICAL ADYICK MESSRS . WILKINSON AND CO . SURGEONS , A o . 13 , Trafalgar-street Leeds , and 34 , Prince Edward-street , Fox-street , Liverpool , HAVING devoted their Studies exclusively for many years to the successful treatment of the Venereal Disease , in all its various forms ; also , to the frightful consequences resulting from that destructive practice , "Self Abuse , " may be Personally Consulted from Nine in the Morning till Xen at Night , and on Sundays till Two . Attendance every Thursday at No . 4 , Georgestreet , Bradford , ( from Ten till Fire . ) In recentaases a perfect Cure is completed within » Week ,. or no Charge made for Medicine after that period , and Country Patients , by making only one personal visit , will receive such Advice and Medicines that will enable them to obtain a permanent and effectual Cure , when all other means have failed . They hope that the successful , easy , and expeditious mode they have adopted , of eradicatiugevery symptom of a certain disease , without any material alteration in diet , or hindrance of business , and yet preserving the con 3 titntion in full vigour , and free from injury , will establish their claims for support . As this Disease is one which is likely to be contracted whenever exposure takes place , it is not like many other visitors , once in life , but , on tke contrsj-y , one infection may scarcely have been removed , when another may-unfortunately be imbibed ; therefore , the practitioner requires real judgment in order to treat each particular case in such a manner &s not merely to remove the present attack , but fco preserve the constitution unimpaired , in case of a repetition at no distant period . The man of experience can avail himself of the greatest improvements in modern practice , by being able to distinguish between discharges of a specific and of a simple or mild nature , which can only be made by one in daily practice , after due consideration of all circumstances . In the same manner at birth , appearances often take place in children , which call for a proper knowledge and acquaintance with the disease , in order to discriminate their real nature , and which may be the means of sowing domestic discord , unless managed'by the Surgeon with propriety and skill . Patients labouring under this disease , cannot be too cautious into whose hands they commit themselves . The propriety of this remark is abundantly manifested , by the same party frequently passing the ordeal of several practitioners , before he is fortunate enough to obtain a perfectcure . The following are some of the many symptoms that distinguish this disease ;—A general debility ; eruption on the head , face , and body ; ulcerated sore throats , scrofula , swellings in the neck , nodes on the shin bones , cancers , fistula ., pains in the head and limbs , which are frequently mistaken for rheumatism , &c . &c . . Messrs . W . and Co . 'a invariable rule is to give * Card to each of their patients , as a guarantee for Cure , which they pledge themselves to perform , or return the fee . For the accommodation of those who cannot conveniently consult Messrs .

A 3 EBXEEN . —At the r ? g"Jiar weekly meeting on Mondsv , after the transaction of the ordinary bnsincsi , ii was unanimously resolved , on the motion « f D ; rid Wright , "That it is the epkr . oii of the Charter Union , that the conduct of Arthur O'Neil and John Colons , at the l&te anti-Corn-Law meeting in Birmingham , is highly censurable , and proves them to be unworthy of the conBdenoc-of every true son of liberty . " f This was received too late fur our last . ] ALEXAKDRIA , Vale of Leves . —On Wednesday evening , an address was given in the streets of this place , by Mr . Wm , Thoma 5 on . The priLciples of Universal Suffrage and the Charter were argued with thrilling effect by the speaker to the crowd
assembled . A proposition was submitted to the meeting to Te-orsanise vhe C ' nartlsts , which was carried unanimously . In Bonhill , Dumbarton , and Alexandria , the cause of political equality is forcing its way among all c ' -asses . On Thursday evening , the Council met to lay do-rn aplnn of organization . It seemed that anotherassociarion based upon 3 Ir . Browser ' s motion was about t-o be started and it was thought desirable to secure the co-operation of out association if it could be obtained oa that condition . Afar some discussion , the Council arrived at the conclusion , that to parley about a resolution was only wasting that strength accessary to carry out tho Charter , and in order for ever to ' silence any alteration about the matter . The
following resolution drawn np by a committee , Composed of Messrs . James Cameron , Charles Glen , and Wm . Thomasson , was unanimously adopted . " That in order to meet the Tiews of all parties , and keep the eye of the public upon the principles for which we are contending—we as an Association refnsa to commit ourselves to any « &i—execpung ihw we will endeavour peacefully , legally , and constitutionally to extend our views , and by keeping strictiy under all circumstances within the pale of the law to carry out the principles of the Charter . " On Saturday evening , another meeting took place in the School rooas , and Democratic seminary , Mr . George Ferguson in the chair . The Chairman said that the meeting was
convened to lay before the members of the Association , a resolution come to at the Council on Thursday evening . Mr . Thomasson read the resolution and stated the object of the resolution was 10 put an end to discussions which created endless divisions and rendered united action for carrying the Charter impossible . Mr . R . Freebaira asked what wis the line of the conduct of the Association would pursue in case the other party would not act on those conditions . Air . Cameron remarked , we mast act independently of them in our own way . Mr . John Weir said in reference to parties who demanded Mr . Brewster ' s motion should be law in their Association , that they were not bigotedly attached to Mr . B . ' s words if better could be substituted . Mr .
Adam Macaulay said that the Council ought to see other parties in order to axijast any differences which might exist between th = m . Mr . Thompson remarked that the Council had no power to submit any articles of pacification until such articles had been previously sanctioned by the Association . After seme discussion , it was moved by Mr . R-jfcer : iTGangan , and seconded by Mr . James Brock , local Secretary , that the resolution of Council be ad ' -. p ; ed as the rule of the Association . Mr . Freebairn moved , and Mr . Robert M'Naught seconded the reading of a former rule of the Association at the meeting for adopting the pr * S ' . nt unc . Mr . Cameron moved , and Mr . Thomasiun sre- 'sied
the adoption of a rule similar to the one referred to by the l ) nb ; in Association respecting the booki ^ b : ing open , if required , to ihe authorities of the place . Moved by Mr .

viciion and pleasure to every heart . In conclusion , ho remarked that Universal SuSrage was the birthright of every man under » i * ire democratic government . They * required no " mercenary soldiers to coerce the people into submission , ¦ who fought for blood-money . aud v ? s . 9 controlled by terror . ^ Cheers . ) Xo , tr-th Universal Sufrtge every citizen would be a sold » r , whose interest would be to defend his altars , his home , and his c&nntry . When the Charter was first brought to Glasgow , it might be- said that it was a wanderer without a home or a habitation ; but now it had fomd both in the hearts of erery bold and honest rsm throughout the length and breadth of tho Izn 4 . ( Cheers . ) Now , the hardy and tearless Gaul was travelling over the mountains and glens of Scot ' iaud , preaching in his native tongue
tne ftlad tidings of Chartism . ( Cheers ) It is true we have nothis *; to expect from tbe Whi fi and Tory factioas , whost minds are warped with ignorance , interest , and prejudice ; and we h&ve also a few old men of the last century , who only required to die out to t ; et rid of their whims ; but we have the best young life and Wood of the nation along with us , and no Government caa long rale who refuses to go alon ? with the spirit of the a ^ e ; no expediency or haif-mea&urcs will now # o down with the people , and they will soun fiud that simple justice will ultimately be their bert and safest policy , and the sooner they resolve to adopt it the belter it will be for thezaselres and all concerned . The lecturer theu sat Jovrn sm ; d three distinct rounds of applause . — At this sia ^ e cf the proceedings , the fire engines pissed the door of the church , and the watchmen's rattles eatsed a contidcrable noise , when the Chairman a ; kcu if any one present could tell where the
fire was I He was immediately answered that it was a eeoperago in the nei ^ hboarhood , but that there v .-is no fear oi' the church . ( Great laughter . ) Mr . Culien then mace a few remarks on Ihe lecture ; he was followed by Mr . Jack , Mr . C . ila . tth . ison , and Mr . Malcclm , who , in reply to something which had f Allen from Mr . Matthison about aristocratic feeling , remarked , that there was too much aristocratic fc-eling ^ ven among Chartists ; if some individuals -can make botur wagi-s , dress better , and behavo , as they think , with greater propriety than their neighbours , they assume a .-uperciliixia air , and look down rrith sovereign contempt upoa those whom they think beneath thera . Ea « h cf the speakers tras loudly cteered . After a few words from Mr . Ferrar , the lecturer summed up , the tim ^ bsing expired . A vot * of thanks was given to him aud the Chairman , nhen the meeting dissolved . —iir . Roy will lecture en the 16 th current . to
The £ Sabttst THfNDZB his bc ^ un toU , and the flashes of lighxniug fTom the lips of the faithful advocates of the Charter strikes through every crevice of sea-bound dungeons , enlivening the hearts of the slaves , and petrifying the souls of the doomed despots of our native land . In Anderston , a publie meeting of the inhabibants of that quarter was held in the Chartist Church there , wht _ -n Mr . Pattison , tho generous and talented advocate of the people ' s right * , delivered a stirring and highly eloquent lecture . The meeting was well aftenaed , and the sentiments of the speaker called forth loud bursts of applause . Another meeting was held in Bridgeton , on the night of the fifth instant , in the iScw Chartist Hall , which was crowded to excess , while the windows were thrown cown , at which the ladies
congregated in considerable numbers ; Mr . Kcdgers was unanimou-iy called to the chair , who , with his usual tact aud Roble-bi&ringj remarked that he was highly gratified to see such an intelligent audience , and was no way astonished to see such s , crammed house , as the excitement among tbe Chartists was now becoming paramount , and would ultimately involve the l&st and glorious decision '' to be or not lobe . " ( Cheering . ) Without any other comment , he would introduce Mr . Gardner , from Glasgow , who would lecture , as previously announced by their Chanist drummer , on the present and future prospects of the couutry . Mr . Gardner , who had just entered the meeting , accompanied by a deputaiiou , marched up to the pulpit amid the cheers of the audience . He then began with a deep and
impressive voic ? , and in language puin and instruct v , to ihow our preseat and tnture prospects that called fonh enlhtisiasuc approbation ; and concluded by exhorting his audience t-o beware of the Whig iiiflueiice of the black crows who were about to meet in Manchester on the Whig Ministerial measures of out-and-out humbug ; they dared not meet in Scotland ; but let us se :: d some of our Chartist preachers among them , so that we may be represented among the white doves of heaven and the black crows of h—1 ! . ( Great cheering ) He could no : omit , as he was now surrounded by the hand loom weavfrs , the unemployed of which had elected him as their treasurer , to mect : ou one of the most extraordinary circumstances ever recorded in ihe annals of cur country . The Presb \ tery of Paisley
!> aJ late . y met , and ( vn . uid they believe it !) that llight Reverend body disputed whether they would allow tbe hand-loom weavers of that town , now going idle , one penny per day . or threepence ! Messrs . Brewsterand Burns voted against the penny , and iheu left the meeting , after strongly protesting against such an uncharitable and unekristian proceeding—( strong expressions of disapprobation ) ;—a-d yet such w » s a specimen of the men who held the Church-strings of charity in Sectlaad j uye , n . D-2 ( sr . d Mr . G . with a sneer ) the souls of the people in kcepiug . f' No , no , " find cheers . ) He then held forth relative to the cruelties of the Whigs , and the villany of the Tories . , the forthcoming of the people ' s s : iant pleader , O'Connor , and the necessity of every
one becoming Feargiues in miniature ; and although they did not po = ses ? , Lke that gentleman , the influence of millions in Britain , and his fast-growing iuflaence in Ireland—( cheers)—stilj they had the power of crushing every Whiggish and Torified principle in their own immediate neighbourhood . ( Cheers ) He then sat down , by recommending the Chartists in every part of the world where the God-rgh ; of man has been proclaimed , to resist , with indignation , the false and insidious attempts of ' the faithless , and cruel , and infamous Whigs—the lying scoundrels , said ht—( cheers)—who now wish and recomifleaJ the people to break out in open rebellion , to tak ^ to tha breach aud the barricade for their
miserable clap-traps of a little bread and sugar , or a little brick and mortar liberty . ( L ? r . £ and continued cheering from the gentlemen within , and reechoed by the ladies outside , ) The ChairjDan then followed up Mr . Gardner ' s remarks in one of those generous bursts which tells upon the minds of an audience by arguments too cogent aud impressive t-o be easily resisted . I tell you , said he , to watck as well as pray , that you may not be led astray from : he eve : \ moril , and pure tenor of your way , in pur-? ci ; of those in / al ] ib ] e principles of the Charter which wehave now so long andsoarduoHsly struggled ;' or . and for which hundreds of our fellow men have
suffered martyrdom in the glow , murdering dungeon hells of the Whigs —( great cheering )—and whileyou agitate for these priuciples , and while each of you ga . her your Chartist chickens under your wings , preparatory to a fy . ure hour of ga : hering , be firm , be peseeabk—ihe work is now being done for yon . Tom Steel , the rigLt hand man of Mr . O'Conueil , has been show : ng the people , the moral force people ot Ireiiiid , how easily a muliGn of pikes cou'd be EVAEtLfac-.-ured to put down the Tories . ( Gr ^ at chveriDj ; ar . d latiguer .

" That the sittings of the General Executive ought to be open to every member of tbe Association and not sit privately as they hitherto have done . " The following were then carried : — " That & map of South Lancashire be purchased ia order to assist tte secretary in drawing up apian of lectnres .

" '' That in the opinion of this meeting , the cruel and revolting treatment received by the inmates of Wakeficld House of Correction , or rather inquisition of tortare , is contrary to tbo intension of the law , repugnant to tbe feelings of human nature , and opposed to the principles of Christianity . That Euch torture oucht not to fee tolerated in an uncivilised
country , much less in one where the ( doctrines of the meek and lowly Jesus are professed , and where it is declared that the Bible is part and parcel of the law of the land . We , therefore , call upon all men whatever may be their political creeds or opinions , to speak out npon this atrocity and wipe the libel from the page of history ; that Englishmen , Irishmen , and Scotchmen stood tamely by and allowed their fellow-men to be cruelly murdered under the most refined system of silent torture that ever disgraced the world , and , too , under the pretence of reforming the persons submitted to it Tkis is another strong argument in favour of the working classes uniting for their protection , seeing the treatment their order is receiving , compared with the treatment received by Lord Plunkett for resisting the authorities and creating a riot . "
" That in answer to a deputation from the youths , we recommend thu Chartists of every district , where it can be done , to form mutual and instructive classes for the youth , they beiug likely to do a great amount of service to the cause judging from what we have seen in Manchester . "

TO THE COUNTY COUNCIL OF WILTS . My Brother Chartists and Fellow-countrymen IN THE HOLY CAUSE OF MAKING THE WORLD OUR COUNTRY , AND TO DO GOOD OUR RELIGION . — In tteS / urnuh / 'indicator , of last Saturday , appeared a vote you thought proper to pass approving of my conduct whilst among you , anrt recommending your humble servant to tbe Chartist ranks , where the services of a corporal may be required to beat up for recruits . I am poor in thanks , beggar that I am , yet accept my thanks fur the honour you have done me . The duty and love I owe my countrymen , X hope will ever ensure me to be found at any post they may think proper to place me . I know all things to be done wisely must be done justly .
My friends , now ia the time for you to werk , let do man slack—now is the accepted time . Up , lads , and fit the bloedstained factions . The men of London are taking a proud position—the trades are enlisting in thu ia . ks of the Charter . As 1 hope to be again accepted among you ; as I hope again to see tboso smiling faces and affectionate voice * tiat have given mo welcomp , by the ties of friendship that bind us ; I corjure you , wy brothers of Wilts , do not slacken . Some of you may have read in the S iar , from their London correspondent , that London was dull and doing nothing , &c , yet , I find it is not so . Let yunr watchword be , to your tents , O Israel . O , join my countrymen—join . Let not theological disputes sever you from the grand and glorious cause before you . Your cause—my cause —the cause of our ill-treated , starved , and persecuted coantry ; yes even the cause of the whole worldthe cause of truth and justice that knows no distinction .
The despots of our wretched country tell you we have justice . O , yea , justice indeed . They tell yon also justice knows no distinction—that she is blind . ini ' . etrd , [ can tell she is not so . She gives starving short weight to 5 ) 62 , 1 S 3 , 264 slowish working men , women , and children , and tremendous lumping penBywortLs to 37 , SSO , GS 5 indolent , do-nothing , ravenous , debauched vultures , who prey on the flesh , bleed , and bones of their fellow men . Is this justice , my countrymen ? I tell you the justice is in yourselves . It remains with you if you will be become great , glorious , and free .
There are two tewible sins that now and ever have oppressed mankind ; the one a sceptre in its hand , the other a cross . The first is s king ; the second is a priest . How is a king made a , watchword among the Jews , when they intended to forsake their princes , of the sweat , the tears , and the blood of nations . What makes him gold— gold—gold ? What makes a priest hypocrisy ami tbe cuss . Then , I say arise from your slumber in the giant strength of union . Take the sceptre , destroy it—it is the king ' s . Take the cross , destroy it—it is the priest ' s . Destroy the king—destroy the priest Ecce Homo givts you warrant to do so more of this anon .
My dear countrymen , ere long I will be with you ag » in in words , bustle , bustle—on , on to heaven-born freedom . I remain , ever truly , Your humble countryman and Brother , In the cause of human redemption , Rufvy Ridley , 19 , D'Olier-strect , Sloane-street , Chelsea . August 9 th , 1 S 41 .

Mr . Wood , of Gloucester . —The Judges r £ , cently met to discuss some point relative to the will of this most singular character , the extent of whose wealth , and the contest for the possession of the same , have already created cosiderable interest in the public mind . The suit between the alleged executors and the next of kin has now been carried on for more than five years , the possessor of tins extensive property having died on the " 28 th of April , lf . r . 6 , when nearly eighty years of age . It is calculated that the same period of time may elapse betore the English laws w ; il allow the final decision to be pronounced . Here , then , must be finu pickings for the lawyers , who doubtktsly will not easily be weaned i > om the benefits of so rich and abnndant an larvtst . As it may , however , afford some amusement to our leaders , we j ; ive an authentic detail of the amount of the wealth which this eccentric and parsimonious old man died possessed of , as follow .-:
—New Annuities . £ \ 6 , 2 : Jl Us . ; East India Stock , £ 3 , 000 ; Three per Cent . Consols , £ o 7 , 500 ; New Three-and-a-half per Cents ., io ^ S .

cash found in his house , £ 2 ,-T _ 6 10-. ; silver , £ 49 Is . ; copper , lid . ; bank uotes , £ 3 , 237 ; check , £ 9 ; old gold—six five-guinea pieces , five two-guinea ditto , nine one-guinea ditto , two foreign pieces—all whioh were sold for £ 51 lo ' .-. 6 d ; oid silver , G 9 pieces , produced Alo 4 s . ; one old gold piece , 2 > . 6 "d . ; rent of his Ua-eholds , £ 711 4-. ; wearing apparel , £ 5 ; household furniture , £ " 223 ; plate , £ 256 ; stock in trade , £ 379 10 ; . ;—total , i" 7 Ci , 107 10 s . 4 a . Added to this amount of personal property , the freehold estates are valued at X ~ 2 t > 0 , {> G 0 ; so that , with the five years' interest now accumulated , -we may reckon his property to amount to the immense sum of nearly £ 1 , 2 0 , 000 . T ' aa ; men who ama * s such immense wealth , by starving themselves and all around them , should not take means to prevent it being wasted in litigation after their exit , appears mysterious , as those avaricious propensities which
enable a man to scrape together such immense sums are strong even in dtath , never fo ^ akinrf the miser but with life , as experience almost uuiiormly proves . Instead , however , of envying the mi ^ er , vrhl » buffers and iEflict 3 all sor :- > of miseries in the pursuit ot his darling object , the individual who , with prudence and propriety , enjoys and distributes thy icud = « h ; ca Providence p ' iaces at his command whilst living , is ranch mere su object of envy to the liberal and feeiing mir . u , and is one who ecjo \ s pleasures which the mis < T never Dpprtcis ; ed or felt . If no more than th * i . 'ittres : of the property in question bv vrastwi in litigation , it will be fortuiiive fcr the persons in : o whose hands this ¦ wealth is eventuallv des : i ! icd to fall , such iuterest being of 1 : 0 meau amount . The judges of the privy council intend to give their decision on this inort important and extensive property on the lo ' -k inst ., when St Matthew Wood and the other par . ies Will kiitw the destination of this ample fortcne .
