BTJHD KtUUANP . —On Sunday afternoon , Mr . Bines lectured at the Life Boat House , to an unusually large audience . He gave &n interesting report of his mission to York , and introduced Borne buaouroos incidents that occurred to him on his journey . When at Durham , waiting the arrival of the eojieh to take him on to Darlington , he observed a gentleman with a tchiie hat , who appeared uncommonly anxious ly get a seat . On being told that the Whigs were now out , and the Tories fairly in , he- heard him exclaim by G-d this will surely ronse the country . " Mr . Binns then set the owner of the white hat down for a Gem Law humbug lecturer . \ £ x . Binns learned afterwards , that the supposed lecturer observing him , had excluded La was
go = e attorney ' s clerk , or draper ' s Ehop boy . The coacli arrived , and there were no Beats for either . Mr . Binns then immediately engaged a gig , a ^ d left the Com Law lecturer chagrin : d &t his disarpoint-E 6 z : £ . He arrived in Darlington ca Sunday afternoon , and next morning on arriving at the railway station , behold there was the gentleman with the wliire hat a ^ ain . They got into the same carriage toucher and proceeded to . York , on arriving there he ' lost eight oi him ; he Mr . Binna proceeded to the roosi when the delegates assembled , and to his astoiiiohmtnt , when he arrived , there was the gentleman , wua the white hat , again ! A carpet bta
was aancma ; by his side , Mr . Binns looked at it , and / bend by the direction upon it , that the owner of the hat was " Mr . Arthur , of Carlisle . " He than accosted him , and each er ; oyed a hearty 2 . ' . ugh at the fr . 3 . ? e impressions wnich they had formed of each other . Through this false impression , Mr . Arho ? had : : irudge his weary way on foot , nearly twenty miles from " Darham to Darlington , while he , Mr . Binns , was a ; the expenco of a gig , and hid a solitary journey . In addiaon to Mr . Arthurs waik to York , hs had a walk of fourteen nuies the saise moriung irom Newcastle , having been disappointed there of a seat to Durham .
Progress op Chabtissi . —The cause goes nobly on in Sunderland . Chartism is now becoming popular even amongst the middle classes , and many of ihosi who before were most bitter in their hostility , have now become warm and attached friends . Not loDg ago it would have been impossible for the Cz . irtis : s to have procured the u = e of the Arcade room , now it is not only at their service whenever they require it , but the council have been enabled to engage this splendid room for weekly meetings to be held every Tuesday evening . The first of these is to be held on Tuesday next , when a lecture on the power and prospect of the democracy will be delivered by Mr . Williams . Singing of patriotic hvmn 3 is iniended to be introduced , and a number of young men have volunteered their services for the purpose The council of the Charter Association have &L = o
eoya ^ ed a room m Bridge-street , for the purpose of converting it partly into an adult school-room , when reading and writing will t 2 taught two evesings each week , gratuitously . The other evenL . fis , ana throughout each day it is to be open as a Convention room to all the members of the Charier Association . This has long been a desideratum , s » r . J we anticipate much good from it . It is well worthy the attention of Chartist Teetotallers , and we h-p ^ all Chartists are , or will soon i > e , Teetotallers . The public-house is not a fitting place of rendezvous for
political informers ; they should meet where they can enjoy the feast of reason and the flow of soul < unaccompanied by those debasing and ruinous ; aesociaiions necessarily coaxected with drunkard manufactories . This room will provide such a place , and independent of its indirect tendency to , weaken the stiractions connected with public houses , i it will do 2 , v&s ; amoun . of positive good by affording faciliiies for the cultivation and enjoyment of tL se : social sympathies which ten J so po \> crfally to cenitai din to mas , and make us brethren by kindred feeling as well as by common principle * .
TUESDAY EVE * I 5 G , SKPTEHBEB 7 TH . —We have Jus : concluded a splendid and most enthusiastic meet-1 ing , held in tbe Arcade Boom . The room was densely crowded , and the stairs ani passages leading to it vere i also thronged by numbers vrho "were unable to gain i admittance to the room . The object of the meeting was to promote the enrolment of the people in the National : Charter Association , and if we were to take the spirit i shown last night , and the numbers wno enrolled , as i zn&terials for conjecturing , we should anticipate a glori- i ous society . Mr . J . G . Kirker , was unanimously called j to the chair ; bavin ; introduced the business , he called ' upon Mi . G « orge Binns to move tho 1 st resolution , i vhich was u followi : — " That the present condition of this country , its finsxrial emoluments , commerc i

Association to the utmost of its povrer , " Mr "; ¦ Williams seconded it in a long and able address , i when it was put , and carried unanimously . Messrs . Taylor and Richmond ; the latter a recent and valuable convert to the cause j moved and seconded the following resolution , in addresses which did them great credit : —' " That the t ^* - " ^* of this meeting are due , and are hereby rendered , to Sharman Crawford , Esq , and those Members of Parliament who supported him in his at-. tempt to bring befere the House of Commons the condition , wrongs , and claims , of the people ; and this meeting also denounces the conduct of Messrs . Roebuck , Ward , and others , who , professing sympathy for the
people , left the new Member for R # chdale unsupported on that occasion . " This was carried amidst great cheering . Three cheers were than giv-n for O'Connor , three for Frost , 'Williams , and Jones , fcc , &c , and the Chairman announced that ny-r . p * of persons disposed to joia would now be received .

Feargus O'Connor , the meeting broke up , well satisfied with the evening ' s proceedings .
HOLBROOK was visited by Mr . Dean Taylor who delivered a thrilling leoture upon the Rural Police , who are about to be introduced into that place . The moon shone beautifully on the assembled multitude . SWANWICK ., —A l&ciure was delivered here by ilr . Taylor . AT . FRET 0 N . —Mr .

DTJFFIEIiip . —A lecture wa 3 delivered here on Tuesday evening , to a numerous meeting , by Mr-Dean Taylor , and while he was describing the way in which the land became private property , and how the peers and parsons had become possessed of theirs , he was strangely interrupted by a respectable , of the name of Barber , who was astonished how Mr . T . could stand there talking in that way .
TODMORDEN . —Saturday last was the day appointed to receive Dr . M'Donall into the Vale of Todmorden . When the train arrived there were betwen two and three thousand persons assembled , all anxious to get a sight of the glorious champion of the people ' s fights ; but owing to tie train from Liverpool being half-an-hour loager in coming than it should have been , he was too late for tho train , and the people were disappointed . At a later hour the Doctor arrived , and at tho request of the party , though it was nearly midnight , he addressed them for about if teen minuteB in excellent style . The vrhole time he was speaking , persons kept coming in so that at last there was a goodly number present . On Sunday , the Doctor delivered a most animating
lecture to nearly three thousand persons on Langfield Common , and such was the anxitty to hear that sll ttss as silent as death . There were many gentlemen en norseback on tLo outskirts ci ' the meeting , and the constables of the township and two policemen were in attendance , but there was nothing for them to do . In the afternoon , about two hundred persons accompanied the Doctor to Hebden Bridge , where he nad b en invited to attend , and he delivered two lectures , one at Hebden Bridge , and the other at HeptonstsL , about a mile above tho former place . The weekly meeting of ihe Chartists took place as usual , on Monday night , when mere were eighteen new members enrolled , and it was resolved to take a fresh room in Todmorden , on account of the present one being too small , and not in the centre of the village .
LEICESTER . —The onward movement has begun in earnest . From Saturday morning to Monday evening last , fifty new members received cards , and were eatered on the books . A deepening aad widely extending feeling has been for soica time very apparent , under the Sunday night's discourses in the Market-place . The broad truths delivered there have been taken to men ' s homes , and to the workshops , conviction has arisen from discussion , and so entirely and heartily have working men become penetrated with confidence in Chartism , as a moral and political remedy for their sufferings , that there needed but some accidental spark to set their resolution in a flame . The sudden release of our beloved O'Connor operated as that spark . From the day oi
his liberation , working men in every quarter were heard saying they had m » de up their minds to join the Chartists , and should only wait till the close of the week before they put their decision into practice . It is believed that the influx of new members , just described , ia but a foretaste of wha ; is to come . Every meeting is crowded with eager hearers . The attendance on Mr . Cooper ' s political sermpn , in the the Market-place , on Sunday evening , was more numerous than ever ; and on Monday night , the apcient and spacious Guildhall , was filled to excess , almost entirely by working men , who listened with every evidence of intelligent and admiring attention to a repetition of the lecture on " geology , and the advantages of a knowledge of science to working men . "
TO K . EEP UP THE GLORIOUS EXCIIEHE 5 ? , Messrs . Smart , Markham , and Cooper , on Tuesday night , visited a district of the town which has long been considered least favourable to Chartism . They each addressed a crowd in the open air for several minutes , and , at the close of the meeting , eight additional new members walked down to Mr . Cooper ' s shop and received cards , after enrolling their names . —Hurrah for old Leicester ! WKWCASTXE . —The Demonstration Committee met on Sunday for business , Mr . Morgan in the ctair , when it was resolved that Mr . Sinclair be appointed Secretary to the O'Brien and O'Connor Demonstration Committee , and Mr . Crathers , Treasurer for the same ; that a public demonstration be

O'Connor and O'Brien , in Newcastle ; to be held on a Monday , the : better to meet the convenience of a majority of the ; working classes ; and that the Secretary be instructed to correspond with Messrs .

Bairstow lectured in the Lrrge Room , Goor ^ ;• - Horse Back , to a highly satisfied audience , during which he clearly traced tho origin of the present enoraiGus amount of misery iu society , and provoi that no measure short of the -who ' . ? cf the People's Caarter , could remove the evil .

" He also described the kind and benevolent feelings by which the numerous delegates were animated towards each other , and concluded by stating that . he release of Feargus O'Connor , and the good feeling that existed between the people's representr . aves assembled on that occasion , would give such an impetus to the people's cause as would bear down all opposition .

Fsosi , Williams , and Jones . The General Committee of Birmingham for securing the restoration of Frost , Williams , and Jones , noihing daunted in their noble efforts to obtain justice , continue to hold their weekly meetings at tho Association-room in Freeman-street . Having p ledged themselves not to dissolve as a committee until tho return of the exiled patriots , they ate now bo far from altering that resolHtion , that every day ' s occurrences teaoh them to double their efforts , and nothing but pucoess can crown their endeavours . Read the cold formal official answer ef the Home Cmoe , after a months ' waiting , to a memorial so respectfully worded , and containing so many flattering compliments to the Noble Marquis , that some of ths committee were of opinion it would degrade them as patriots to allow
the same to be printed . Let any one with a ray of reason , or a spark of humanity , within their breast , read this correspondence , and he will be convinoed that much remains to be done , ere these would-bethought noblemen will be brought to throw aside their prejudices with regard to i rost , WiiliamB , and Joues ; but the Committee trust to accomplish their object by perseverance . They have , therefore , come to the conclusion of immediately getting up another memorial ; and , being aware ot the arduous nature of their object , are low moro than ever fully determined not , to cease their endeavours until that object is attained .

Bonded Wheat haa conscqHently been more «' ¦ . quired for—and on the sales passing ou and since Saturday , full prices have been paid , while many holders have withdrawn their samples to await the event of the duty arriving at its lowest point , which is ; expected to be on the 16 th instant . Harvest is progressing rapidly , and the farmers report that considerably more than half the crop of Wheat is cut round this neighbourhood , and , a good deal secured , but thore has not , yet been a sufficient
delivery to speak decidedly of quality or yield . Spring corn is offering v ^ ry sparingly , and no alteration in value can be noted . But little passiug in Rapsaeed or Linseed , and prices unaltered . Rape and Linseed cake continue in good demand , aud fully support prices . Bones meet buyers at late quotations . For to-day ' s market there is a very limited show . of new Wheat , farmers being busily employed with harvest , all more . or * less wanting condition , the best of which brings 60 s . and 64 b . per quarter . Our millers have still to purchase south wheat and at high prices , the stock being exhausted of this neighbourhood ' sgrowth . Bonded Wheatisheldto-day at Is . to 2 j . per quarter higher prices than last Tuesday , but there is not much business doing . Beans and Peas fully support prices . Oats are dull , and when sales are made less money is submitted to . In Barley nothing doing . The weather to-day is favourable for harvest work .

Manchester Cohw Market , Saturday , Sep . 4 th . —Until Friday morning tbe weather continued fine throughout the week , since which we have had some heavy rains . Our advices from the agricultural cjuntiesof England note considerable progress in tho com harvest ; and the late fine weather has materially improved the appearance of the crops in Ireland . The business of the week has been confined to a few ? ales of Flour and Oatmeal
forimme-• iiate consumption , and former prices were nu , supported . There are . again large supplies of Oa 5 s aud Oatmeal from Ireland . Of Foreign Wheat the imports comprise 19 , C 31 quarters , in addition 10 1 , 700 quarters of Wheat , and 10 , 504 barrels of Flour from C mada . The duty ou Foreign Wheat is now 63 . 8 d . {*? r quarter , aud on Floor 4 s . per barrel . At our market this moraiug there was Ie 3 s disposition to prtoS Spies of Wheat , but we must note a decline of Id . to 2-i . per 70 ibs . on our previous quotations . Choice qualities of English Flour were in moderate request at Is . to 2 s . per 280 lb 3 . below the rates of r hi- ' ay re ' nmght ; and for anything perfectly sweet : n Ca iaai » Flour there was some inquiry ac a reduction o : fully Is . per' barrel .. The demand for Oats
* iH old Onmeal was extremely limited , at a reduclion of 2 s . per bushel and Is . per load ; new Irish Oatmeal was retailed at 31 s . to 32 s . per 2401 bs . No change in the value of Malt or Beans . Liverpool Corn Market , Monday , Sept . 6 . — Since this day se ' anight we have received upwards of 7706 qmarter 3 of Oats , and 4403 loads of Oatmeal fro m Ireland , but the arrivals of o > ker descriptions at Grain , as well as Flour , either thence or coastwise , hava been small . From Canada we have had 1700 quarters of Wheat , 7678 barrels of F . our , and 389 barrels of Oatmeal . The imports from foreign ata .. cs incluo ' e 19 , 948 quarters of Wheat , 500 quarters
of Banoy , 4710 quarters of Beans , and 1671 quarters of Peas . Up to Thursday night the weather continued favourable for harvest operations , and the Grain trade , generally , ruled dull , prices of free Wheat receding 4 d to 6 * d per bushel below our last quotations . Since then we have again had heavy and almost incessant rain , which has given renewed confidence to holders of Wheat aud Flour in bond : a few parcels of the former have been sold at a small advance on the rates of Tuesday . The millers and dealers ( waiting the result of the approaching release of foreign ) have still bought sparingly of free Wheat , which has barely supported its previous value . Best sweet brands of Canadian Flour have
nii : t a moderate demand at 36 s to 36 s 6 d per barrel l . j the earl y part of the week both Oats and Oatmeal differed a further depression ; good mealing qualities ot' che . rbrmer offering at 3 * to 3 s Id per 451 bs ; Oatme-i ai 253 to 25 i 6 d per 24 libs ; at these rates the latter article ha » sold rather more freely , and Oats have been held somewhat more firmly . Little passing in either Barley , Beans , or Pea ^ .

I shall also be happy to hold lUsUict meetings in Sheffield , if I can have the kelp of my Chartist brethren .
