How sweet the enjoyment 6 f liberty ! How bracing aud healthy its air ! Playful and free , like the waves of the sea , The patriot longs to be there . Sweet is the smite of affectionate love ! And sweet ' tis to pillow me there ; Oa the bosom that swells when its soft-heaving tells She ' s my own—my beautiful fair . But sweeter than all is the blessing of health ; Since without it enjoyment must flee ; The raptures of bliss are enhanced by this , And mau from his thraldom is free . 'Tis at hand—may be gain'd by us all ; 'Tis in nature's own chariot and car ; The blessing of health and of honour aud wealth May be found in the pills of Old Pam These invaluablo pills may be had of most of the respectable chemists and dealers in medicine throughoui . the United Kingdom , in Boies at Is . l ^ d ., 2 s . 9 d ., and family packets ^ lls . eacfa .

MOTHERS . ON MOTHERS have depended in all ages the strength aiid well-being of Empires . Every well regulated state has possessed laws directly subversive ef all ihat might injure the development of mind , retard the itaproveuient of morals , or been destructive to the physical beauty of the female form . This feature in good government was not peculiar merely to the independaat States of ancient Greece , but stands out in bold relief upon the pages of Roman history ; their statute books being filled with provisions for ennobling the female character ; stamping thy hardy race of Romans as the most philosophical among the learned , the greatest among tbe free , and best qualified of all others to give laws to the world . How necessary this was to their success or to the success of any ' great empire remains to be considered ; and tho downfall of each is without doubt traceable to the indifference and negieot with which the rights of their women have been treated . Oh this subject one of the most powerful writers of the day has the folJowing :- — ' * The soaial influence of woman will appear more obvious , if we notice a little more in dotail the circumstances over which she exercises a direct and almost exclusive control , ia the training and education , of the individuals of wiiieh society is composod . In the firet place may be noticed her great influence over the physical well-beiug and happiness of man . It is from the mother ihat the physioal constitution of the human being is ohivfly deriyed , and it more generally partakes of her peculiarities of bodily and mental endowment than of the other parent . The healthy structure of the child ' s frame , it need scarcely be Baid , depends for the most part on the mother . And of how great importance is health , to the kuman being 1 Is it not the basis of all moral and mental development , and absolutely indispensable to the enjoyment of happiness , either of mind or of body 1 Next in valuo to health of mind , is health of body . Good health is happiness and success , aa ill health is misery and defeat ; in the great struggle of life . The ono is the most terrible bequeathmeat which a parent can give to a child ; the other is . an . inheritance above all price or purchase , and without which life cau never be enjoyed as it ouKht to be . " How necessary then is it that mothers should not only study their health but be made acquainted with a safe , cheap , and infallible remedy for the numerous disorders inciileiit to the human frame . As a promot-r of health and a remover of physkal debility Parr ' s Lite Pills Btand unparalleled in the history of patent . medicines ; Tens of thousands among the working and middle classes as well as hundreds among tho aristooraoy have been , cured by their use when all other prescriptions have failed . Cases of extraordinary cures in Leeds as . well as elsewhere , are occurring daily , to the truth of which ihe medici . no vendors , Mr . Heaton , Messrs . Bell and Brooke , Mr . Smeetori , Mr , Reinhardt , and Mr .. Joshua Hob-8 ou , will most gladly fustify . The following has just been received from Mr . Heatou :- ^ - To the Proprietors of Parr's Life Pilk . " Gentlemen , —I am happy to inform you that we are daily ' .-hearing accounts of the good tffoots of Paur ' s Life Fills ; to enumerate the cases would bo a task too formidable .

CARLXSLE . —On Monday evening , a public meeting of the Chartists of this place took place in Mr . Blythe ' s Beeming Machine Room Water-lane . After a balance sheet of the funds of the Association had been read , the following report -was submitted to the meeting : — " Report of the Council of the Chartist Association of Carlisle , April llth , 1842 . —Your Council ought , in the first place , to apologise to you for not calling a public meeting for the purpose of changing the members ef tbe Council at the expiratiea of the first quarter . This circumstance arose from matters of a pecuniary character , and Dot from any desire ( v ? e can assure you ) on our part , to remain in office for a longer period tban that illotted by the recogsised rules of the Association Your Council considered it better to remain in office
for a longer period than they were called upon to serve , than to allow the Association to suffer any inconvenience for the want of a Council . In regard to money affairs , you will have perceived from the balance sheet , which has jnst i > een read to you , that the principal item of expenditure is the sum cf money paid for the defence of Williim . Blake , who was charged with assaulting a policeman while in discharge of his duty , during the late election ; and of which offence be was cleared at the Cockermonth Sessions . This was one of several caseB of prosecution , which arose ont ot the late- election , and -wliich -were obstinately and unfeelingly jurrsevered in , by onx late Mayor aad his Whig associates of the Corporation . In the prosecution of the charges to which we have alluded , there was a spirit
of revenge and vindiotiveness displayed , troly characteristic of the low , grovelling and narrow-minded Whig faction . Doubtless thes * creatures of Whig creation , were eager to walk in the blood-stained footsteps of their masters Lord John Russell , Fox Haule , Lord Normanfey , and Others of the late Government , who have rendered nugatory the few good acts they committed by the enactment of the accursed Ne w Poor Law , the Irish Coercion Bill , the Rural Police Force , aud other acts of a similar atrocious character ; but more especially bare they rendered themselves despised and despicable by their truckling aud cowardly conduct , and more so still by their unjust and cold-blooded prosecutions of some hundreds of the Chartists . Yes , the voices of Frost , Williams , and Jones , have been heard
from afar , and have been re-echoed back by those of the dungeoned patriots of our native land , proclaiming with joy unspeakable , the funeral knell of this debased , degraded , sad abuffltsg faction . In addition to the sum of about £ 0 and upwards , expended in Blake ' s defence , there was a further ram of seven shillings paid for defending him at the Town Hall previous to his committal , and which is not named in the balance-sheet , bnt which sum was received from some of the country districts . There is also a Bum of £ 5 due to Mr . John Saul , for defending the former prisoners at the Assizes , and which it will be the duty of the forthcoming Council to take immediate steps to discharge . About two months ago , as subscriptions had ceased to come in , your Council divided the town
into twelve districts , appointing two collectors t » each , to cail tip » n those persons most likely to subscribe one penny weekly to the funds of the Association ; which plan , we are happy to say , ha * been successfully carried into effect , and only requires to be vigorously followsd up , to enable the forthcoming Council to meet any demands that may be made upon it You will remember that the Convention for the presentation of the National Petition is -now assembled in London ; and though you have not been able to s « nd a delegate , yet it is no less your duty to support it , for it is acting for the general good . Time is pregnant of events ; and if you wish to hava a powerful and effective Council , you Einst choose men in whom you have the greatest confidence , and in whose integrity you can place the
strictest reliance ; and , above all , yon must place at their disposal the means of being useful in serving your cause , and the cause of public liberty generatly . it is to be regretted that some of those clever men , in whom the people have hitherto placed the greatest confidence , and whose talents and abilities have been wielded in the cause of publis liberty , have partially seceded from the people ' s ranks , by attaching themselves to the Sturge party , who , it appears , are in favour of what they are pleased to term " Complete Suffrage , " but -which is only a portion of the Charter ; and which , if carried , would f » il in producing those good and salutary effects , which tbe entire Charter wouM most certainly seenre . It is somewhat remarkable that some cf Mr . Sturge's followers are men who
assisted in drawing up the People's Charter , yet they no ^ -seem to be coutent with a portion of what they formerly required . Can these men deny that the whole of the Charter is just ? Ho ' . Then why be content with a portion of justice ? Evidently for the purpose of again cajoling and deceiving the people , as the Whigs succeeded in doing with the Reform Bill . Let the people beware of trickery of every description ; let them not be cast down at the loss of those whom they had been led to believe were their ttsrling and staunch friends—let them stand tttdfiistly by tbe Charter as a measure of complete justice—Jet them know their rights , and , knowing dare maintain them ; let them closely adhere to principle ; then they will feel no disappointment , at the loss
ef those who may prove false or treacherous ; and though their path may be overclouded and rugged for a while , it will finally be pleasnnt . and agreeablebespangled with flowers , and covered with sunshine . Justice win and shall finally prevail ! What are the people ' s prospects at the preseut moment ? rjot cold , blank , and cheerless , as many of the Whig faction would have them believe ; but full of hope , life , and encouragement . The Whig faction is out of power ; the anti-Corn Law humbugs are dead and buried ; the difficulties of the Government increase on every hand ; the Afighan " barbarians , ' as they are termed , ( but who by the bye are becoming suddenly civilised , ) have cried havoc , and let Blip the dogs of "war , on our well armed and well-disciplined forces , and have made
thousands to bite the tiust . The Chinese will not be easily conquered ! Seeing the niBny difficulties that surround them , tha present Government has b&en forced into a measure of partial justice . They are now convinced that they caa If vy no more taxes on consumable articles ; so that they must get them where they can , and have proposed an income tax of about 3 per cent , to be paid by all ( except the farming interest ) having incomes ot £ 150 a-year and upwards . They have also proposed to lessen tbe duty on foreign articles coming into this country , ( on some cases considsrably ) on upwards of Beven hundred articles ; bo that this will have a tendency to increase the comforts of the labouring man—to enlarge onr commerce and extend our manufactures ! There is no ¦ working man who ought to
find fault with this measure , as far as it goes , for it will not only benefit him more or la-va , but it wiji rapidjy iEcrease the number of Chartists amo g the middle classes . Oh ! there is nothing like direct taxation for makini ; them feel how very disagreeable it is to pay abont £ 3 for every £ 100 of inceme . How the manufacturing and commercial interests are squalling . The hypocritical does , they looked very smirking Th « tie niitnge wnareduced—they did Tiut then complv . u . Oh ! no ! but snugly pockeued their hundreds a-jf ar , "while the working man was scarcely benefitted at » D by that measure . There has been Dia ;; j complaints made in tbe Whig journals , about the hardship and inquisitorial nature of the proposed income tax ; but few working men ¦ would complr . in had they to
th ^ tax pay ; ana who ought to bo so well of ? as the "woriin < roan it is urgefl tbat professional men outbt not to 1 > e sutj- ct . 0 v-. t vx in tiuianse d ? sree as those having an inc ^ iiw f ; oin property ; but there is uo class of men . vrb <> c > t their money snore easily and more plentifully th-xn lawyers , sttorw-ys , acd doctors . So loDg as a man tss s > n income of £ 150 a-yesr , he ought and must tin -wh : ; tfcver -way he setilles it ? pay tbe tax . Bat there is an eTiaent xinfairre .= s , in Sir Robert Ptel only taking fru ^ n ti-s farm **" * inc = rp « -, estimated at hall their rent ^ ISS ^ OO ; 7 >]; i . ' e fr . ftii tbe professional and commercial c . 'assts he fakes £ 1 2-2 f 000 . Now either tLe syriculiurs ! "int-eresi : ( says the Westminster Review ) is reiliy the most insignificant in the country , and if so What becomes of tha rUllions
rtcrliDg , to an incredible amount , that we are told are employed upon the land i or this is an extreme case cf legislation . But it L ) even worse oa examination than i « . t first it appears , fur the mode by which t' -. e farmers are to bs assessed will allow tbem to tscare altogether . As no income less than £ 150 is to be taxsd , a farmer who pays less than £ 300 a ytnv re :. t , aUiiongh deriving perhaps an income of £ 600 per annum frcm his farm , ¦ will pay no portion of ti . e fix ; arid in respect to farmers above £ 300 ptr annum , vrlir-t Trill be easier tban to divide them nominally among the members of a family ? We deplore the wrorg about to be committed , as briugine odium on the principle of taxation , in itself ju * t , ami -wLich ' when confined to realised capital is undoubtedly the best
mode of obtaining n reverue , becauoa it is that which interferes in the M ^ Myit fiee ^ e vnth the productive intertsts of the country . But the working classts mnst rot expect ar . y treat or pttmMent good from this measure ; for they are ni 1 unprotected against the attacks of the spoliator . E' ^ rv aMvant-nge will be taken of tbe good accruic . ^ !¦> the working man from tbe measure , ^ evei until te is tr curelv protected ni > 2 . iz--i tyj-inny a&i cpprrf ; ion , by hay : ;!? n voice iu making the laws by which i . e has to be governed , m- ; 1 I his physical and social condition be improved ; r . av .-r will he he able to Bucctgrfnliy reM ? t viil . inies which iniy be rmetised upon L-rn . Sir Robert Peel hss cer / iniy aiij-xD himsr . ' f a hold man iu proposing such a lueasurias the income-tux ; in-. lccd he clearly foresaw tbe pi-eat and manifold difficulties he tvould inevitably b- > pl&ctd in , had he not taken the means of raising ample fands for the carrying on cf his Government . Bus he has not
been bold enough to be honest , or his refonus -would have taken a much -wider range ; he -would have grappled with that monster , the national debt ; he would have reformed the . overgrown church establishment ; he -would have materially curtailed the isveuues 0 ! the crown ; he would have considerably reduced the Civil List ; he would have purged tbe courts of law ; he would have lessened the salaries of trovernm ^ nt 1 fficers ; and above all he -would hare taken away all sinecures and undeserved pensions . Bat these reforms are reserved for a Parliament fo ; med under very different auspices tbau the present—a Parliament cho £ sn by the people at large , and net as at present by a very limited number of the people ; -who never consult the -wants , wishes , and feeli ; gs of ths gr « at bulk of the people . We have ventured the foregoir . g general remarks on the present state cf the country , trusting yen will receive them in that kindly spirit in which they are conveyed . In conclusion , we call upon you to be firm , united , and determined ; stand

stedfastly by your Charter ; let no petty differences of opinion divide you ; rapport those greafc and good men who hare stood closely by you In the hour of danger , and who have suffered severely for your sakes —who have braved " the battle and the breeza "—who are still tbe vndaunting , unflinching champions of your righta and liberties . Stand by your O'Connors , your O ' Briens , your Campbells , your Leaches , your M'Doualls , in short , all those men in whom you have had good and sufficient reason to place confidence . Discountenance sill those "who do not support your cause , which is that of eternal truth and universal justice . Despise tbe middle class man as your bitterest fee , who would deny yon justice , and above all things , do not go cringisgly and support him by your custom , while be is assisting in keeping from you your just rights . In the words of Mr . O'Brien , "Let them come to you , do not join them ; they must join you . Say as Jeremiah says , ' the rulers must come to thepe » ple ,
and not tbe people to them , ' The middle classes m « st come to us . They may go for complete suffrage , but we will go for a more complete suffrage . Do not do away with your organisation ; do not do that to please the middle classes . Let me show you the power of union : —a cable is composed of tiny fibres , which the fingers of an infant could tear asunder , or its delicate breath blow into the air ; but when firmly entwined together , they will securely moor a forty-gun Bhip . If each of you let your tiny strength bind firmly and closely together , like these tiny fibres of the cable , you will become strong—nay , all-powerful . If yon have sympathy for each other , aet as if you had but one pulse and one soul ; if you would do that , all the powers of earth and hell conld not prevail against you . " Mr . Beeley moved and Mr . Martin seconded tbe adoption of the report which was adopted ; and thanks having been voted to the chairman the meeting broke up .

.... PROTEST AGAINoT THE MEMORIAL OF THE LITERARY ASSOCIATION OF THE FRIENDS OF POLAND TO THE KING OF PRUSSIA . When from a mere feudatory province Prussia rose into a tinhorn , the doom of Poland seems to have been resolved . With Prussia originated the disrueraherments . "What Europe stigmatised as the murder of a ¦ wh o ' s nation , was a schprae conceived , proposed , and execut-a by Prussia ' s most enlisbtaned monarch , Voltaire's f .-iri : < l , the author of the anti-Machiavel , Frederick Uie Great , -without Trbose suffgestion even 1 ) 18 WcrlLy 111 : } 1 and collta ^ ue in f ? reatn ; s 3 , the infamous C . itLt-riae > A Kussia , wunid n& ? er Lave dared to insult th ^ Tiiiuion of the world by Euch : v . act of vsholesale
robb ^ -. y But upon a p ' -ity coutident iu the promises of kings , even this experience was lost ; and when detailed Polish patriots were biidtuvoiiring to substitute the national constitution of their country by a newfruhloncd and more 3 no ; . archicul one , ttcy implored and o -Xained the tupport and guarantee of Prussia and sealed the dowsf-. l of Poland . The Prussian armies tntered the Poli .-h territory- to defend its constitution against thosa &f Moscovy ; and then they joined them . Prussia played the part , not • nly of an assassin but cf h Uaitor ; and what price tf blood she then received , sbe still enjoys an > i boasts of allowing the UBe of tLe Polish language aud provincial mockrepesentation among Ltr favoured subjects of the Duchy uiPoHsn .
Even so iate aB ttn years ago , when a part of our country eujoved : i glimpse of emancipation , and her destinies were counterbalancing those of Moscovy , Prussia furnwhed support , ammunition , and a free passage through her territory to the Russian armies , and turned the scolf 8 in favuii * of tyranny . The sous of Pjkml went disarmed in search of an hospitable n . u _; rf , and encountered in Prussia her bayonets , h « r bul tts , the koofs of her war-hortea , the edge cf h ? r swords After thoha unarmed pilgrims hH < i passed through the butchery of the FiBchau and Elbingtn , they had to endure four years of hard labour in the ca = vtnr , ; -. s of Graudentz . And v ? hat was the reason vi all tbose trueities ? That the sons of Poland had prtforren t ^ ile to slavery , and had not obeyed the summoD 3 of Prussia to re-enter the dominions of her beloved ally Niuho ^ s .
As : d iuch art- tie hentfita fjr -which an " Association of friemis of Poling , " in a memorial presented to the Kin ^ of Prussia , and signed on the 30 th of January , 1842 , bj Ljpt Dudley Coucta Stuart , expressed to him their tii . iLKs . Bnt thry uici even more ; for those who spurn avy amnesty s& impiying an avowal of &ulit , where there Tvua caly tile fuifilmeut of duty , the society b&ggafi a gracious aimiitince under the paternal sway of Prussia , ^ rovifMiii -ttity ^ tre bearers of ceitificatea of go > d behaviour ; that i ? to say , of submission to the unlawful dominion tf oue of the murderers of the cou try . And kiiJced , if they obtained not the whole amount of their ¦ wiibes , they ^ ot for the inhabitants of Prussia , Poland at least , a confirmation of an amcesty derogatory to the righta of our country , and for the inhabitants of provinces iucorpKjrated -with Russia , the promise of his 3 Iajetty ' s kind effices with his ally and cp-partitioner Nicholas .
Sotueii the King of Pmasia , the BtiU illegal occupant of a part of Poland bsa been recognised by those who call themseiVes Poland ' s friends , not only as tbe Russian autocrat , the chosen intercessor who has to accomplish iheix reconciliation , and to deprive Poland Of tteonly Mpreseotatives she possesses among free-born nations ; the King of Prussia has , in fact , become a member of that association , with which he henceforward proruisea to oo-operatfl , and which in reward of this co-operation , pledges itself the fidelity of his lawful Bubjecta , thereby becimicg ef thtir own accord , the foreign agents cf his kingly government * Nicholas himself will be appe-aled to in bebaif of the Poles , and W 6 see no reason why he should be excluded from the right of becoming a member of an association from ¦ whi ch bis accomplice in tbe robbery < f Poland's independence receives congratulations , heartfelt thanks , and * * * reports upon the conduct of his subjects . If the cabinets , -who all more or less , have been aiders and abettors of the several partitions of Poland , had

exchanged notee of a similar nature , we should have nothing to Bay ; the public would not bo deceived as to their tendency , and out silenee could not be construed into assent . But , when those who assume in England , the title of repreaentativea of Poland's wiahes , put forward the distreBS of a number of Polish refugees as a plea to justify their transaolioos With ona of our tyrants , it becomes our indispensable duty te protest against it in enr own name , in the name of the emigrants and of the Polish people in general , and above all in the name of the most Bacred rights of our comntry to Independence and integrity , and this duty we hasten to fulfil ... ; '¦ ¦ ¦ ¦• . yr - - ' , y ' -:: ' ¦ ¦ ¦¦ : ¦ ¦' . ; -- .:. ; . ; ; . \ ; . May this protest give to the English public a cue to our oooitant opposition against the politics of Lord Dudley Stuart and his associates , in spite of the efforts they have undoubtedly made to relieve the Bufferings of many of our fellow exiles .
; Material Bufferings , death : on the field of battle , or on the scaffold at home , or « xilo and destitution abroad , are the lot we have voluntary chosen , rather than submit any longer to the violation of the rights of our country . And should some relief afforded in our present distress , or the procuring of means to return under the yoke of our oppreasors , induce us to be giatef ul f or the injury done to those very rights ? No , and therefore we shall persist in protesting even against philanthropical associations ; ^ whenever , like the King of Prussia , they try to wake us forget the rights of our country by affording us individual benefits and relief . " Man shall not live by bread alone , " and it is not a morsel of bread for which we shall sell the impre * scriptible claims of our fatherland , to independence , integrity , andfreedom . By order of the meeting , John Haciski , Chairman , Joseph Gleinich , Secretary . MareU , 7 th , 1842 .
