BRITISH BENEVOLENCE .
Thb affluent and professedly pious portion of out countrymen must certainly be possessed of the -nrfcae of benevolence in a peerless degree seeing that their act 3 of charity are eo frequently alluded to . Scarcely a day passes but we are told of the liberality and disinterested generosity of one or other of them . In the turreted cathedral and the lowly conventicle it is trumpeted forth , and in the ponderous folio and the tiny pamphlet we find chronicled the charitable deeds of the wealthy . We do not find fault with the rich for dispensing a portion of their superfluities to the poor and
needy ; on the contrary , we maintain it to be their imperative duty as trustees of the bounties of Providence . But we do find fault when charity Taunteth itself ; when it is put on as a garb to conceal delinquency , or merely to procure notoriety . We wish to see benevolence in its parity , emanating from an unyitiated source and flowing in its proper direction . But alas ! we rarely find that to be the case ; the fountain of unalloyed benerolence is nearly dried up , while , in most instances , ihe unworthy , the indolent and wellproTided for , are the objects most regarded by the pseudo philanthropists .
German titled beggars , legalised cut-throats , and the courtezan associates of royalty , have all drawn deeply on John Ball ' s benevolence ; but few of the Tirtuous and worthy hare received aid from the dispensers of his bounty . To th e undeserving volnptuaries much is gives , while the deserving poor aie left to starve . In the religions world we find more commisseraiion for the inhabitants of distant climes , than for £ te myriads of destitute , starving , and dying , by whom the flaming professors jare more immediately surrounded , and of whose condition the saints must be cognisant . In corroboration of this fact ,
we lay before our readers a couple of extracts from the pages of the Nottingham Review , which we shall place in juxta-position . The one refers to the benevolence of Britons towards the "untaught Indian , " or rather towards the" souls of the " poor benighted blacks "—the other has reference to British benevolence , evinced towards our own distressed and perishing countrymen , their care-worn and woe-worn wives , and their hunger-bitten offspring . The one is to send words to the antipodesthe other to provide bread for our neighbours , our fellow-citizens , our brother Christians , who worship at the same altar with ourselves , and who are dying for lack of the common necessaries of life .
The paragraphs to which we allude are as follow : — "TheLondon Missionary "On Sunday , the 26 th Society held their annual ultima , a sermon was meeting in Manchester , last preached at Calverton wesi , and the collection , Church , Notts , by the including the breakfast ReT . Samuel OHyst , in on Weinesday morning , aid of the distressed opeasonnted to £ 1952 . " rattves , when £ 3 . 8 s . 6 d . was collected . "
Now with what feelings other than those of shame ssd disgust can the reader peruse the above 1 Shame to know that his own countrymen can pass unfeelingly groups of their famishing neighbours—turn a deaf ear to their tale of real woe , and leave them to perish in the very depths of misery—misery which many of these saints have been instrumental in producing—while , in a few moments after , they may be seen shedding tears of compassion o ' er the ignorant , bat , perhaps , well-fed Pagans in some distant clime . For the "poor blocks" their bowels yearn , their hearts bleed , and their purse opens to send forth
ambassadors among the heathen to teach them , not the fast which the aristocracy , the millocracy , and the shopocracy of England have chosen for the people , bnt to teach them ( if they teach the scriptures ) Hie fast which the Host High hath ehosen for - all people , namely , — " To loose the bands of wickedness , to undo the heavy burdens , and to lei the oppressed go free , and to break every yoke ; to deal thy bread to the hungry , to " bring the poor that are cast out to thy house ; when thou seest the naked , that thon cover him , and to let the oppressed go free , and that ye break every
yoke . " These things must be taught to the heathen , of whatever rank , if the whole counsel of God be declared ; and yet , the men who send forth these missionaries scrnple not to wink at , nay , encourage the worst species of oppression at home . An instance came to our own knowledge , not long ago , of a Yorkshire millocrat giving a large sum of money for the spread of the Gospel , and within a few days reducing the wages of Ms workmen to repair the breach made in bis pocket by this act of Christian benevolence . This , weknow , i 3 notasolitaryinstance ; it has now become general among our modern
gaints in high life to " rob the labourer of his hire " that they may appear generous and liberal supporters of that religion to the precepte of which their actions run counter . It is really disgusting to contemplate the condnet of such hypocrites ; and if ministers of the Gospel discharged their duty more faithfully , the men who take the uppermost seats in the sanctuary , and sport their gold rings and costly apparel , would receive deserved castigation from the pulpit , instead of which it is left to be performed by a small portion of the press , or inflicted from the Chartist platform .
"We tell the persons who subscribed the £ 1 , 952 in Manchester that they are grossly mistaken if they suppose they are paving their W 3 y to heaven by Bach donations . Such sacrifices of the profits derived from other people ' s labour i 3 an insult to Deity , particularly if made at a time like the present , TFhen the wealth-producers around them are dying of actual starvation . We tell the pious benefactors to be just ere they be generous , and let charity begin at home . They need not traverse th « globe in quest of needy objects ; they will be found at their own threshold , and many of them the victims of their own inordinate avarice .
We tell them that the system under which we live is worse than that which obtains in any pagan land —that it geserates more ignorance , vice , and woe , than that of any other on the surface of the earth . Yes , we tell them that there is more crime produced by the mal-idministration of affairs in this Christian country than one-half the " barbarous" nations ever witnessed . If these men will not feed the hungry , or clothe
the naked ; if they have no regard for the bodies of their fellow men , for God ' s sake let the £ 1 , 552 be expended in the attempt to convert our worse than heaihen rnlers from the error of their ways , and if these reprobates are out of the reach of the agents of the society , then let them go amongst the workers in the mills and mines , and we will guarantee them work enough to remove the ignorance and vice proceed by our excellent institutions .
Talk not of the lost estate of the son 3 of Africa , * &le at home , in this land of Bibles , we axe told of workers in the factories not having heard of Jests Christ , and of workers in the mines saying & ** they think he was born in Wales and went to Esjdand . " " - ! n such places as those the £ 1 , 932 might be expended to advantage , and redound to the credit of &e doDors ; but we opine it would not quadrate with certain interests , and consequently these dene ' * > knt gentry would much rather send their blessings ^ KsstheseaB .
Now , we would seriously ask the Society to comttenoe their work on a new plan . If they really desire to promote the well-being of the idolatrous aaftoas , let feem labour a little at home in prevaila £ upon our Christian Government to withdraw their man-butchers from amongst the " savage " tribes and the obstinate" people of China ; for , depend upon it , our Bibles won't do much sendee to * people who feel out bullets ; sabres and sermons °° SBi not to fc . 6 sent together ; canon law and CMnon balls do no * comport well with each other ; &ad so long as ire export parsons and pistols to the same country , iha inhabitants will question the sincerity of our motives , and wish the cargo and its ewaers at the bottom of the sea .

The Chinese and the Affgbans must certainly think us an odd sort of people to send among them one set of men to proclaim " peace on earth and good will towards men / ' and another set armed with murderous weapons to cut them up at the word of command , murder the flower of their country , and incarnadine their soil with blood . Their priests need not fear the loss of their occupation so long as this is the case , for the whole people cannot but see the necessity of the missionaries returning to their own country to preach peace to the men of blood and plunder . We wonder if the cart Jo&ds of cannon balls which
passed along the streets of Bradford the other day are to be conveyed to their destination in the same ship which convey 3 the agents of the Missionary Society . If so , it will be quite in keeping with our general method of doing public business . The ilacks will surely leave their wigwams and dance for joy , on the arrival of such a cargo . We do not condemn the efforts made to extend the principles of Christianity ; we are as desirous as any to see those principles propagated among all the nations of the earth ; but we abhor the conduct
of a people muling and puling about the lost estate of the benighted heathen , while they viewuumoved the sufferings of humanity , so prevalent at their own doors . We have yet to learn practical Christianity at home , and un ' . il our sondnct bears some approximation to onr profession , it is worse than hypocrisy to set ourselves up as instructors of the ignorant . Had practical Christianity been a subjsct of consideration at the meeting of the society in Manchester , the £ 1952 would have been appropriated to other purposes , but little tyrants must ape the
great ones . The great ones robbed the poor , whom they grind to powder , of £ 20 , 000 , 000 sterling to emancipate (? J the blacks ; and , therefore , the little tyrants , as a matter of course , must imitate the example , by squeezing £ 1 , 952 out of the starving operatives under their control to save the souls of those whose bodies our red-coats are employed to destroy . What superlative humanity ! What transcendent liberality 31 Surely these men will never fear entering the place to which they are afraid ( 1 ) the poor blacks are hastening .
We would advise the Society to look at home , and , before they take the besom to sweep the snow from off the top of the Indian ' s hut to see that it is cleared away from their own door . If they are familiar with the wants of the blacks , whom they never saw , and ignorant of the exigencies of the whites , whom they see daily , they are certainly as queer a lot as ever met ; but they cannot be ignorant of the condition of their own country ; they must know that practical Christianity is here
confined within a very limited Bphere . Wo have abundance of food , yet many perish of hanger ; the swill-tab . is ransacked to feed starving . ' children , and the putrid carcases of dead animals are devoured with eagerness . We have clothing rotting in the shops and warehouses , while rags constitute the covering of the manufacturers of Bnch clothing ; we have houses unoccupied in every street , while many are committed to prison for being "found sleeping in the open air . "
rvow as these missionary gents , frequently allude to the great day of assize , we wish them , if they believe their own doctrines , to reflect on the picture they wili present when arraigned at the bar . They may talk of giving £ 1 , 952 , in the days of domestic distress , to diffuse gospel light ia dark , benighted heathsn lands , bnt will not the judge Bay " know ye not that / was hungry and ye fed me not , naked , and ye eloihed me not ; a stranger and ye took me not in ? " They may affect ignorance and inquire when they saw him in that state of destitution ! bat the problem will soon be wived : — " Inasmuch as ye did it not unto these little ones ( pointing to the . victims of tyranny ) ye did it not unto me . Depart from me , I know ye not . " Working men , forget not that one assembly of professed Christians have given
£ 1952 of your hard earnings to support missionaries among the heathen , while another assembly of Christians have opened their hearts and given £ 3 8 s . 6 d . to alleviate the sufferings of their neighbours who are dying of actual starvation . How profusely the milk of human kindness flows in some places ! Well , well ; so it is ! Bat hear it ye hypocrites—ye wolves in sheep ' s clothing—we shall have a reformation , ere long , with s veDgeanee , and your deeds but serve to hasten the day . The patience of the poor has been often tried , but it may yet be exhausted , and we leave the canting hypocrites to calculate the consequence of it 3 being so .

By the subjoined letter from our Engraver , the subscribers will at once see that no blame is attachable to us for the short delay which has occurred in placing specimens in the hands of our agents . Many of those within reach of the Engraver will have received specimens of the splendid Portrait of Thomas Duncombe , Esq .,
M . P . ; and those of the Convention , House of Commons , and Procession , all in one Plate , will be in the hands of most by this day week . In the middle , of April we announced our intention of giving the Procession Plate at the end of four months ; and now we axe enabled to state , thai we shall not exceed the time Chen named by more than a fortnight ; and to make up for even that disappointment , we have to announce that the Portrait ef Dancombe will
be delivered to subscribers of three months from the date of the presentation of the Procession , and as the Proprietor of the Star is anxious thai every Chartist should poasess as many of the Portraits commemorating Chartist events , or keeping alive the memory of their political supporters as possible , he has authorised us to state that all subscribers , from Saturday week , will receive the above Plates at the appointed time . This extension does injury
to none , and will be an advantage to many . It Is needless to direct attention to the specimens above referred to , as they are as much superior to any heretofore given with the Star , as those formerly presented with that paper are to any ever presented with any other journal . Each agent receiving from twelve to one hundred papers per week , will have one specimen of each plate , and one for each hundred above the first . The following is the Engraver's letter : —
" 37 , King-street , Covent Garden , July 12 th , 1842 . " Sir , —It was really not my fault that the specimens of the Procession , and the portrait of Mr . Buncombe , > I . T ? ., were not ready at the time they were promised to your agents . The fact is , we were unable to complete the Engraving in time . The Procession Plate alone contains more than four hundred figures , and is of a great bik . It has not been one day neglected for now nearly four months .
" It -srss owing to Mr . O'Connor ' s urgent entreaty that I promised Mm a complete specimen upon the day you appointed for their delivery to agents , and not knowing where to and Mr . O'Connor when I discovered the impossibility of perfecting the order , and not being aware that he had communicated the notice to you , was the cause of the mistake . " However , I transmit specimens of Mr . Duncombe this week , and shall transmit specimens of the Convention , Procession , and House of Commons during the next week . " Trusting tN « explanation will be satisfactory , I am , " Tour obedient servant , " William Reab . " To Mr . John ArdilL "

More Evidence of Sympathy for the Perishin g Poor . —Th ? Moohs and Bilberries . — 1 We live in strange times ! that even wild fruit , known by the name of bilberry , or wimberry , is now denied the people . It has been customary from the remostest times for the poor or other persons , Jn the summer season , to stroll on the moors on the borders -of Yorkshire , Lancashire , and Cheshire , and get wimberries ; but for some few years past they have been prevented , and this summer especially , under the plea that they disturb . the meor game . Now , ye would-be great men , proprietors , as ye call yourselves , what right have you to the commons more than any other child of Adam ? Did ye create them , or make the heath or the
wimberry to grow ? Did ye do anything bat send idle fellows , called gamekeepers , to prowl up and down , and abuse and ill-treat such unfortunate persons as they caught committing the shocking crime of getting a few wild fruit , perhaps to maintain a starving , perishing family , and that too on unreclaimed wUd desolate part ? ? " O , but . " Bay you , " are not the moors oure ? were they not allotted to us by Acts of Parliament ? and do not such lots and such places belong to Squire Such-a-one aud Lord Such-a-one ? and have net they a right to prevent the poor blackguards from getting bilberrieB and disturbing the game ? " Acts of Parliament , indeed 1 what righto can Acts of Parliament give that are at variance with the
la-ws of God and Nature ? Are not the uncultivated parts t ) f the earth toe common property of man ? What special right has any individualman in common-land , only , that he has expended capital er labour on it , and , above all , that he has given the people an equivalent for it ? Now , have you « ither purchased , or reclaimed , or expended capital or labour on the commons and the wastes of God's earth Not you , indeed ; but because yon happen for the moment to be in possessien of real or fictitious means , you set yourselves up for somebody ; and for a momentary vanity , or to gratify an idle vitiated taste , yon resolved to preserve a few dry and worthless birds
at the expence Of the welfare of your fellow-mortals in distress . We hear a great deal said about common sense and common rights ; but are not the biJ berries sow growing , and which could be converted to the use of the poor , a common right of which they ought not to be deprived ? Common sense says , yes ; but pride , vanity , and hardheartedness must be gratified , at even the expence of suffering humanity . Need we wonder that the poor and less fortunate should have their minds embittered by bad usage , that even a few wimberries on the wild commons should be denied them ? No i nun , usurping man , is fast ' sowing the storm , and he is likely enough to gather the ¦ whirlwind . '"
Cox Murray , residing at 139 , Salt-market-street , Glasgow , informs the brave Chartists of Dublin , that , through the kindness of his Scottish friends , he has collected 1 , 600 Chartist Circulars , and 1 , 000 old Stars and Patriots , besides a number of ether democratic periodicals , which are at their service .

Mobb Middle-class and Manofactdrino Rascality . —^ Bl ackburn Correspondent writes us thus : — ¦ ¦ ¦ -, ¦ ¦• '¦ ¦ ¦; :. ;;¦ ; \ -: ; ^ ' } .: ;¦¦ } Y . -y " v ¦ - ¦ " Having seen In your paper of last week an exposure of one of the multifarious methods by which the working man is robbed of the miserable pittance he obtains in the shape of wages ; and thinking that such exposures are calculated to do some good , I have been induced to submit to your consideration the following account of a method : by which a millowner in the neighbourhood of this town contrives to rob his workpeople of their hard-gotten wages . He proceeds as follows ; - — 11 Instead of paying his workpeople every week , and thereby enabling them , to make the most of their
money , he pays them onca a fortnight , and occasionally only once in three weeks . This irregularity compels the workpeople to have recourse to credit ; but , as there are but three shopa in the vicinity of the works , and , as the irregularity before alluded to Induces a great number of people to leave the mill , the shopkeepers refuse to give credit to the workers unless they have a ticket from the millowner . The millowner gives out the tickets ; and for every 20 g . represented by the tickets the millowner receives Is . 3 d . from the shopkeeper as a remuneration for his trouble : thua the workers are robbed of Is . 3 d . in tke 20 s ., besides the exorbitant - profit exacted bythe shopkeeper . ¦ : ¦ . ¦ ' ¦ - . . 'This proceeding pressed so heavily upon the work- ;
people , that many of them preferred to borrow a portion of their wages from the millowner ; but that worthy ' gentleman' was determined that the workers should benefit nothing by this change : he therefore made a rulei that any peitson who borrowed 20 s . Bhould pay 3 s . tot . the fortnight or three weeks'lend , as the pay-day might happen to take place . This it will be seen , amounts to more than 300 pei cent per annum ! A single case will show how this money-lending system works : — rt Some time ago , a man , who now works in the mill , had a child that died . He borrowed £ X , to defray funeral expenses , and agreed to pay Ifc ^ a ct by instalments . Bat when pay-day came , the mii : 6 wner
stopped the £ 1 , together with the 3 s ., and lent him the £ l again . This £ l iraa lent over and over again , till , before the man had it in his power to pay it back again , it cost him 27 a ; for ¦ ¦ interest in rather more than six months' time ! "Again , not long ago , the same millowner had the mill ' necessaries * ' emptied , in which be found about five or six pounds of cotton waste , worth about Is . 34 . For this he mulct fifteen men in 5 a . each , and sixty women in is . each , —thus ; making- £ 9 15 . ? . of what was not worth more than Is . 3 d . II " In this way are the working men robbed , day after day , by the bawlers for 'free trade' and ' extension of commerce . ' Should We not by all means seek union with these kind , considerate friends ? !

HOUSE OF I OKPS , Tuesday , July 12 . Lord Wharncliffe presented a petition from the classes educated at Exeter Hall , praying fer assistance to enable the system to be carried out . He expressed an opinion that the giant of £ 30 , 000 for education in a country like this was altogether insufficient ; and explained what the present Government were doing to further the education of the people , especially in the establishment and support of normal schools , for which additional assistance from Parliament was requisite . Th © Marquess of LAKSDOWNE and Lord BROUGHAM expressed satisfaction , and . only regretted that Government waa not prepared togo still further .

At last , Sir James Graham expressed , on the part of the Government , a disposition to concede the point of pressing the entire Bill , bat asked for a decision as to the continuance of the commission for five years , a point which he considered essential .

THE COLLIERS OF NORTH STAFFORDSHIRE TO THE MIDDLE CLASS OF THE STAFEORDSHIRE POCTERIES IN PARTICULAR , AND TO THE OPERATIVE CLASS ; AND ALL MEN IN GENERAL . Men and Brothers , —For more than six weeks have we , the colliers of Longton , in the employ of Mr . Sparrow , - been resisting a reduction of our wages . Serious indeed , to us , is the attempted reduction , being no leas than one shilling per day , either direct or Indirect ; direct in the reduction of sixpence per day , and indirect in the increase of work to be . - . performed j the increased amount of work being one yard per day , per man . Thus this redaction cats two ways , less wages and more work .
-It is a fact of public notoriety , that our work Is dangerous , dirty , and laborious , in the extreme- From the first moment of our getting into the chains , to descend to the butt om of the pit , ; until we are again landed at the top of the earth , our lives are not one moment in safety . Fire damp , black damp , a fall of coals , or a slip of the roof , may in an instant consign us to death , or cripple us for the remainder of life . Often , as the record books of the Infirmaries can testify , have numbers of our brother men been carried there to be cured of burns , or broken limbs ; and maiiy have sunk into the grave , from the injuries they have received ; These things surely should entitle ns to something more than a mere Subsistence , and yet the hard hand of avarice would give ns all the danger , all the labour , and all the dirt , that it may obtain more gold to glut the insatiable maw of avaricious men , ' ¦ ¦ . ' ¦¦¦ ' . ' ¦ ¦ .. ¦ - - . ' ¦ - . . ' . - . - . ' :
After we , the men of Longton , had struggled for six weeks , tbe miners in the employ of Birl Granville are treated to a dish of the same kind , and are compelled either to submit to the same reduction ,, or , by standing out against such reduction , prevent the future degradation of themselves and their families . Shopkeepers , we appeal to you . If our wages are reduced , we shall have less to lay out with , you ; and , of coarse , yonr profits must be less . To your sad experience , you can testify that for years back we have not been overdone with money > even' when our wages were 4 s . per day ; for yon do know that ; we have not , on the average , worked more than four days per week , and often not that If , then , our wages be reduced to the tune of one shilling per day , how are we to Hve , or to pay for what we get ? Your interest , thereforej lies in upholding the value of labour . Come ; then , "we say , assist us to win our rights , for in so doing we win your profits .
Operatives , we appeal to you for your assistance ; for depend on it , tae reduction in our wages ia but the prolude to a reduction in yours . Let na beg of you , then , to help us to conquer ; and ia OUT victory see your own . reward . Coal-owners , we appeal to you . Will you , by a most injudicious reduction of our wages to increase your splendour , or to enable you to lay up more gold to hoard in uslesa heaps—will you , then , engender those heartburnings , those strifes , that will most assuredly follow ? Is it wise in you so to do ? Is there none of the milk of human kindness flowing through your bofl@ni 8 , that you seek to deprive us ( your workmen ) of the few remaining comforts we have left ? Let us hope better things of you ; and , by a wise , a just , and discriminating policy , reconcile your workmen to you , and give the men a just reward for their labour . Miners , a word with you . In Our fate behold yonr own . If we are conquered , how long will your wages be what they now are ? and how long will you be able to resist the iron hand that seeks to lay us prostrate ? Join with us , and by one determined yet peaceful struggle , complete our and your victory . By order of the Committee of the Operative Colliers , In whose behalf I am , Sir , Ever yours , JOHN RICHARDS , Corresponding Secretary of the National Charter Association .
