The Condition Of Frost.
THE CONDITION OF FROST .
We direct attention to the following extract from a lengthy article on the horrors of transportation , in the current number of Cleave ' s Gazette . Let Chartists remember that t ? ieir friends , Frost , Williams , and Jones , are now subjected to the atrocious cruelties inflicted in the land of law-made demons —our penal settlements . Dr . Ullathorne says" Tha penal settlement of Norfolk Island is a small island about a thousand miles from Sidney , to which convicts are re-transported from N . S . Wales . Port Arthur is also a penal settlement , to which conyicts are re-transported from Tan Dieman ' s Land . It is a peninsula , cut off from the rest of the colony except by a
neck of land . TMb neck is guarded by a detachment of Boldiera , and by s line of very fierce bull dogs , from shore to shore . These dogs nave been se trained , that , « n the least noise , they give the alarm , by day or by night , and so successful has been this guard , that not more than two prisoners "were ever known to escape ; one of these vas taken , the other is supposed to have perished in the woods . The general description ef this peninsula is exceedingly desolate , and the convicts are employed in working coal mines . There are above 1206 criminals is Norfolk Island , and nearly as many at Port Arthur . They art fettered with heavy chains , Aarrassed with heavy work , and fed on soli meat and maize bread . Their existence is one of desperation . At Port Arthur there are chain gangs in which rigour is pushed to the utmost extreme of human endurance . 'The work , ' as Sir George Arthur informs you , 'being of the most incessant and galling description the settlement can produce ; and cxy duooeditnee of
orders , or turbulence , or other misconduct , is instantaneottsly punished with the lash . ' So severe indeed , are the privations of these men , so dreary and desolate is their state or mind , eat off from all communication except wtfch each other , and deprived of every soared of human enjoyment , raising their miseries as they herd together , upon each other , without hope as without help , to absolute is their despair , that the most daring attempts , though commonly useless , are made to escape , and murders are even committed from a vehement desire ef being relieved from their own Intense misery . The late Governor of Tan Dieman ' s Land states tiro cases of this kind , in one of which the Ban murdered his dearest friend , saying he was . weary of life . I myself witnessed the execution of one in Norfolk Island who had deliberately , and -without any malice against him , split open the skull of his comrade with a spade when at work ; be pleaded guilty , and declared that his sole object was to obtain

his own deliverance out of life . Several such cases have occurred . The late Chief Justice of New South Wales , when interrogated by a Parliamentary Committee , on the convicts of Norfolk Island , being asked , 'Would it _ not be better to burn them alive ? ' said , 'I cannot say if it were put to myself , I should not hesitate a moment in preferring death , under any { orm that you could present tome , than such a state of endurance as Norfolk Island . « One unhappy man on the same island , when brought up to receive sentenoe , wrung the heart , and brought
tears to the eyes of his judge , as he exclaimed— ' Let a man be what he will when he comes here , he is soon made as bad as the rest ; the heart of a man is taken from him , and there is given to him the heart of a beast '" / "¦ -. - ¦; .. -. ¦¦ -. , . ' We stop here , but shall from time to time quote still further from these records of horror , until" stung to rage by pity "—our countrymen declare that no government shall exercise the power thus to destroy the very barriers of justice and mercy , —thus to inflict injuries without discrimination of effects beyond answering their purpose to
M KUl—Kill—Kill . " We have no morbid sympathies with criminals of any degree ; we do not desire to see vice stalk forth in open day unfettered , but we wish to see the fountain of the law purified ; we wish the " majesty of the law" vindicated , —the penalties measured by offences , and justly administered . We like not a body of judges gravely quibbling with the words of the written law—indifferently—to save a murderer , or to hang a political opponent . One question—Of what is the mass of verbiage called the written laws of England composed 1 What man can throw light on such a heap J We
only feel that much of the great pile is due to . the exercise of the worst—the narrowest—and yet the bloodiest—propensities of man , to wreak more cruelties upon his fellow creatures , and to name it Law ! And then we assert Frost , Williams , and Jones , were not treated according to desert , " but according to unjust—though written—law . And all know and feel this—even those at whose hands these men are now Buffering . "Brother Chartists , rest not , pause not until you have rescued Frost , Williams , and Jones , from the land of law-made demons I—Cleave ' s Gazelle .

HUDDEItSFIELD . —Meeting of Ratepayers . —A meeting of ratepayers , called by the Board lof Surveyors of Highways for the township of Huddersfield , was holden in the large room Of the Pack Horse Inn , on Wednesday last , at eleven o'clock in the forenoon , to consider and determine upon a claim for compensattoji made by ' Varley and Company" for alledged injury done to property by the raising of the highway passing "Shorefoot-mill . " It turned but that the Surveyors , before they determined ; on making a much-wanted improvement in the road leading past the mill Just named , up to Mold Green and on to the Wakeneld road , had consulted the owners of property adjoining
the portion to be raised ¦;; and had arranged with them that the ( private approaches to the raised and improved public road should be made at private cost . To this arrangement the firni styling itself " Tarley and ^^ Company" wereparties , one of the part-Jiers being present , and acquiesihg ; in the meeting of surveyors and owners of property . When the improvement was partly effeoted this Company demanded that the Surveyors should enter their private mill yard , and raise it to a level with the public road . The Surveyors properly refused to thus misapply the rates entrusted to their chrage , and " Varley and Company" caused them to be served with notice of action for compensation , for damage
done to their property bj mending and improving the public highway ! It was therefore determined to lay the matter before the rate-payersin vestry assembled . A very animated discussion ensued , after the above statement of facts had been laid before the meeting , by the chairman , ( Mr . Joseph Shaw , overseer , ) and a member of the Board of Surveyors , in which Messrs . T . Shepherd * J . Brook , J . Hobsou , J . Leach , R . Armitage , D . Hirst , &c ,, &c , took part . A case from the Law Journal was brought under i the consideration of the meeting , by Mr . Joshua Hobson . which completely met the point at issue . An . action had been brought against a Board of Surveyors under precisely similar circumstances , the raising of a pnblic road
adjoining the plaintiff s private property . He sued for injury and damage done through the rendering of his gate and carriage way wless by the raising of the public highway . Under the direction of Justice Park , the Jury found a verdict for the defendants . The plaintiff moved for a new trial ; and Justices Baylby , HoLROYD , and LmLEDALE refused the motion on the ground that an action could not be maintained against public servants acting for the public advantage , unless it was proved that they abused the power they possessed by acting arbitrarily and oppressively . The following resolution , moved by Mr . J . Hcb 8 ob , and seconded by Mr . T . Shepherd , was unanimously passed : —
" That this meeting having carefully weighed the whole of the facts laid before them by the Board of Surveyors of the Highways , is of opinion that the claim made upon the Board for compensation , by ' Varley and Company , * is at once ii'ijust ; and illegal ; vtnvat , because the firm trading under the designation' Varley and Company ' were parties to an agreement madebetween the Surveyors and the owners of property adjoining the then projected improvement , in that portion of the highwayleading from Shore Head * to the Navigation Bridge , ' which agreement was to the effect that the said owners should make and alter their own approaches to
the said improved highway : illegal , because whether they were parties to the afosesaid agreement or not , the iaw instructs : the Surveyors of the Highways to consult the public benefit , and not individual advantage ; and authorizes no such expenditure of the ratepayers' money as the making of private approaches to a public road . While this meeting , therefore , thanks the Board of Surveyors for resisting the demand for compensation made by' Varley and Company / and for calling the ratepayers together to consult as to such claim ; it also instructs the said Surveyors ef the Highways to continue to resist , by all and every legal means , the said claim for compensation made by 'Varley and
Company . - .. _ . ¦ _ . . .. . - . . ... , ;;; .. . . . . . A vote of thanks was given to the Chairman , and the meeting dispersed . ErTRtoRDiNABT Sign d * thei * ' Pressure of the Times . "—Perhaps no one fact could possibly be adduced to show the "dreadful times" we livainj and their extraordinary . " pressure" even upon " profegsional" men ( to say nothing of petty shopkeepers and tradesmen , ) than the following : —An eminent firm , composed of "limbs of the law , " and " doing ' busirieBB at a short distance from Battve Ford , ( a place . in the immediate neighbourhood . jof ¦ ¦ Huddersfield , ) have suffered so much of late from " want of custom" that : they have been obliged , td eko out
, a living , to add to their legitimate vocations the most unusual one { for attorneys ) of wholesale pigjobbers !; Their first essay in this new line was made by one of the partners in this ( now ) law-andpig-nrm . about a month ago , wheu hei purchased from a dealer in the Liverpool market no less than forty-six pigs at Once for about £ 60 . Having made the purchase , and paid the money ; and having slept on his bargain , he was not bo much in love with it as when at first entered into : for reflection taught him that neither himself nor hig partner was the best judge of pig ' s flosh in the world ; and that though they mightmanage to buy a lot together for a giveni sum , they
were not quite " o fay" at the job of Belling them ( singly ) out again , at a profit . la this emergency they had recurrence to the able advice and counsel of ——• " Cox y , " Esq ., son of Joseph Cox , the eminent common carrier of Huddersfield . ( Of his mother we are silent . ) The result of the conference was , a determination to admit Mr . • * Cox y " into the firm , as a , partner in the pig-jobbing business . Since then all has gone : on smoothly . The first lot is nearly disposed of . The law " professionals" are getting a clear insight into the arts and mysteries of pig-jobbery . A prospect of "doing " well is opened up before them . They begin to have
a hope of standing up , notwithstanding the ' * ha . rd times ' " and they already bless the day that 6 aw them dealers in " porkers" to save their bacon !—Perhaps the most astounding part of this curious business has yet to be mentioned . Mr . " Cox y" deolares , that while his connection which the lawyers has given them a knowledge of 'his "profession j" he has also acquired an intimate acquaintance with the quirks and quidities of the law and the lawyers ! u Recipbocity" is his motto ; and already overtures are made to duly instal him a full member of this "most respectable"firm S :

MIDDLETON . —State of Tradb . —— cotton trade here is in a most deplorable condition ; there are only three cotton mills here , and they are all stopped , and have been for some time ; two of them belonging to Mr . Burton have totally given up maBufacturing , and the workpeople are in a most distressed condition . ; LEEDS . —The Great Wizard of the North oponed his Temple of Magio in our Music Hall on Monday evening last ; and that his performances fully equal his promises is evidenced by tfre fact that the " temple" has been nightly crowded with wonder-stricken admirers . He is at once the most
dexterous and the most gentlemanly of all Wizards . If he be , as some imagine , in connection with a certain old gentleman , ( who shall be nameless , ) most certainly the latter Can boast , of having a really clever and accomplished acquaintance . The "magic circle" is splendid . Most of the Wizard ' s apparatus is made of silver ; and the coup deil of the whole is dazzling and striking . To particularise one portion of the performance as more worthy of notice than another is difficult ; but we must mention the concluding trick— "the Gipsy ' s Wonder Kitchen . ' Let our readers imagine a large cooking pan , suspended , gipsy-fashion , from a frame-work of Wood , and having no communication with the
floor or anything elsei , - other than the rope by which it is suspended from its supporter over the fire placed under it . Let them further imagine six dead and dressed pigeons placed in this pan , along with six gallons , or more , of water . ( That the pigeons were pigeons , and that the pan was filed with water , we saw with pur own eyes . ) Let them further imagine that when the pan is uncovered , and you are expecting to sec the pigeons turned out cooked , and ready to eat , six live pigeons should fly out of the : pan instead , and that every drop of water has disappeared . Let , we say , our readf rsimagine this ; and is there one of them within reach of the Music
Hall that will not hast . ea to see the wonders performed , of one of which we have attempted a faint description T During the next week we perceive an addition will be made to the performances , which will be of itself worth the sum charged for seeing the whole . The dissolving views from the polytechnic Institution , are to be introduced for the first time , to a Leeds audience . Those who have visited London , and had the high gratification , to witness this pleasing exhibition , can appreciate the treat in store for the seekers of amusement in Leeds : those who have not had such an opportunity will do well not to miss it now that it is brought home to their own doors .

Thomas Carroll , the man who committed the deed was on Wednesday sent to take his trial at the assizes for the offence . Gig Accident . —tAbout ten o- ' olook yesterday morning , as Doctor Hobsou and his servant were coming smartly , but by no means dangerously fas t ^ down Burmandtofts , in the Doctor ' s gig , they had a , misfortune , which might have been very serious . The near wheel , from some cause or other , came off as the gig was going . The Doctor tumbled out , and the man , with considerable agility , making a clear vault to the other side , leaped out , but fell on his descent , while the affrighted horse went off at a rapid
speed down the street . The man sprung instantly upon his feet , and followed the horse , while the Doctor lay for a few seconds Beemin « ly somewhat stunned with the fall . A flock of sheep were just passing down the bottom of York Road , and the horse dashed through the midst of them , dragging after him the now unwieldy vehicle . He then turned up York Road , and raised a terrible commotion among the women and children , of y ? hom there were , aa usual , a large number idling about . He was finally stopped opposite the Riding School , and appeared to have sustained no other injury than a cut in the off far leg . We are happy to observe that the Doctor aod his man are both uninjured , and that a child who was said to have been run over was not hurt .

MYSTERIOUS OCCURRENCE . ( From the Dublin Morning Register . J The neighbourhood of Rath mines was thrown into the greatest state of excitement on Saturday evening inconsequence of a rumour whieh prevailed relative to the death of Mr . Augustus Byrne , aged about 28 or SO , who resided with his family at No . 1 , Albertterrace , nearly opposite the Rathgar-road , in the above locality . The rumour was very current in town { on Saturday evening , that Mr . Byrne had met his death under strange circumstances , and to our reporter making the necessary inquiries , the following fact ? , which may be relied on as correct , were communicated to him . From private information received on Saturday evening by Inspector Finnamore ,
that officer at once despatched a messenger for Dr . M'Carthy , one of the county coroners , who arrived at the Rathmines station-house about eleven o ' clock , and with the inspector proceeded to the house of Mr . Byrne , and after some preliminary conversation , the parties proceeded to the back drawing-room , where they observed Mr . Byrne lying dead on his bed . Dr , M'Carthy directed the inspector to summon a jury , in order to hold an inquest on the body . A very respectable jury was then sworn , and they at once proceeded to view the body . It would be almost impossible to describe the appearance presented by the corpse—it was livid in many parts , and the chest , head , neck , and arms , were what ia commonly called " black and bine , " aa if these portions of the frame
had suffered severe injury . It being late at night , the coroner thought it advisable to adjourn the in-Juiry . Two young gentlemen , named Luke and oseph Wall , sons of Mrs . Byrne , wife of the deceased , together with Mrs . Byrne herself , and her servants , Catherine Finnegan and Christopher Telt , were , by order of the coroner , taken into custody by Mr . Inspector Finnamore . These persons were brought before the coroner and jury , and , after being duly cautioned not to say anything that might bo used against them hereafter , the coroner proceeded to examine them , but not on oath . From the statement of Messrs . Wall , it appeared that their stepfather had been ill for six or seven days , but they knew it only by rumour , or report , in the house . They were not in the room where he lay at all , nor
did they see him during the time . They were not aware of any doctor being sent for to visit the deceased , nor did they think he was so unwell aa to require a medical person ; and they knew nothing more about the mattre until they heard he was dead . The statement of Catherine Finnegan and Christopher Telt was to the following effect : —For the last six or seven days they did not see the deceased , but heard he was unwell in bed . On several occasions they brought np tea , coffee , beefsteaks , rashers of bacon , and other victuals , to the bed-room , but did not go into the apartment . Mrs . Byrne ( they said ) used to meet them at the bedroom door and take the things from them . They knew nothing more about the deceased , or bow he came by his death .
The statement of Mrs . Byrne was , that her husband for the last week was in the enjoyment of his usual health , and that she did not notice any ohange in him nntil Saturday , when she was at the beside and heard to her great surprise a gurgling sort of noise in his throat ; she wished to send for a doctor , but deceased would not allow any person to be prepresent ; she , however , sent for Mr . Harvey , an apothecary , who , on his arrival , found the gentleman dead . : It being twelve o ' clock when these statements were made , the coroner adjourned the investigation to five this evening , at the same time directing Mr . Finnimore to take charge of Mr 3 . Byrne , the Messrs . Wall , and the servants of the deceased , which he accordingly did . These persons were put under arrest , and placed in separate rooms . Mrs . Byrnes
was allowed to occupy an upper room in the house , the Messrs . Wall another room , and the servants a third , each under the surveillance of a police officer , until the result of the investigation is made known . There are several witnesses to be examined . Surgeons Fox , Mitchell , and Ellis , were engaged yesterday for npwards of three hours in a post mortem examination of the body ; the result of their inquiry of course can only be known on the inquest . Great crowds of persons had collected about the place during the greater portion of the day . Several gentlemen , friends of the deceased , called during the day . There are various rumours afloat respecting this strange and sudden affair , none of which it . would be prudent to state in detail until the investigation closed . The jury will assemble this evening at five o ' clock . It is composed of the most respectable persons residing in the locality .

We consider this more necessary at the present time than ever . The Association ia rapidly on the increasethe crisis of the nation ' s fate draws near—the industrious olasses are seeking for political knowledge : the enemy is at work to weaken and divide our larrks , and hunger and devastation are making fearful and rapid strides in ' , the " once peaceful and happy homes of the arti&&DB Of EnghVili "Sow is the ^ time * hen men
begin to think , and to oak each other «« what shall we do to be saved V and in our opinion no time can be more fitting than the present , fer the Executive Committee to put forth their mighty talents to direct the movement , and create such an unanimity of feeling and of action aa shall Btrike terror into the ranks of the enemy . That the Executive Committee may be the better able to carry into effect the foregoing suggestions , we recommend that for the future all nominations and elections of ofiScers belonging to the National Charter Association of Great Britain be taken through the country at one and the same time , as stated in the plan of organisation . If this method be rigidly adhered to , the whole of the Association will follow the example in all their transactions , ' which will give to the organization an impetus that will defy all attempts to mislead and divide the people .
