It is qir-lc true that bad tows generate oppressions and repress liberty ; it is equally true that most of our lairs are of this character ; but this by no means demomtraies T .

GATESHEA © . —The auddle ^ ci&sses of Gateshead got up a requisition to the mayor to eonvene a pnblic meeting , to consider the distress of the unemployed workmen , which was held in the Town Hall , onMoaday , the 18 th , at noon . George Sowerby , Esq . mayor , in the chair , three resolutions were adopted which did great credit to the gentlemen who brought them forward . A committee were then appointed and subscriptions were entered into , when in less than half an hour about £ 110 weresabscribt d and work marked ont for them to do , which will be commenced immediately . We believe it is intended _
to give married men with families , two shillings per day-, and single men one shilling and sixpence each . It was anticipated that the gents intended converting the meetiDg in £ b a political one , and working men attended in case it should , but there was no other attempt made , than by one gentleman , who suggested that the Government should be petitioned to to repeal the corn and provision laws , when Sinclair Boggested the Charter as tha most efficient means of ameliorating the condition of the people . The mayor protested against tbe Charter being introduced , and "Sinclair protested against the corn law humbugs , and it so ended .
MANCHESTES .-Bkutal Cojtocct of the Police . —On Saturday afternoon , a poor lad was coming up jishton-street , Bank-top , with a wheelbarrow , selling sand , when he was charged with taking a string of beads from the neck of a child . The ladjteclared that he was innocent . The policeman searched his person , and the wheelbarrow in which he had bis sand , but without success- ; no beads were to be found ; bat , notwithstanding , the policeman took him into castody amid the execrations of the people , who had collected together , and witnessed the whole affair . A poor man , named James Moor , who keeps a Email coal-yard , on the opposite side of tbe street , said that he ( the
policeman ) wanted to ma&e Bome money by the job . This was sufficient provocation to warrant this jack-inoffice to draw his blnd ^ eon , and , in a most bratal manner , s-rike the poor fellow upon his head , and various paits of his body , until the blood ran down his face and neck . He then dragged him to the station , were he remained from Saturday afternoon until Monday moraing , when he was brought before the magistrates , and the policeman prepared a charge of assault against him . After a patient hearing- the magistrates dismissed the case ; and this is all the justice that a poor maa i 3 to have for being abustd' and imprisoned for the crime of speaking in tbe street , when he sees a fellow-being unjustly treated .

Ok Su > dat Etemsg bst , as Mr . Gabriel Hargraves and another gentleman were walking up Gregson-street , a policeman came out of a publichouso iu a state of intoxication . Mr . Hargraves's friend , remarked—" There is one of Sir Charles Shaw ' s men in a fine condition . " The policeman hearjng this remark , without further ceremonv struck s ^ bW at Mr . Hargraves , which that gentie " man fortunately warded off . The policeman then drew oat his truncheon , and again aimed a blow at l £ r . Hargra- ? e 3 . By this time a great number of peoplehiul collected together , and the policeman , still determined to chastise Air . Hargraves ,
continued striking at him with his truncheou , which he escaped by _ wa : kicg backwards , and the policeman being so tipsy he could not accomplish his object . As he was miking a blow , Mr . Hargraves slipped to one side , and succeeded in taking his truncheon from him ,. which he took to the police-office , accompanied by several respectable individuals who had witnessed the whole of the policeman ' s condnct , and gave in the truncheon and the policeman ' s number . He was then given to understand that he would be required to appear against the policeman and make good his charge , but up to the present time ( Wednesday ) he has not been called upon to do so .
At Manchester , in many of the tradesmen ' s windows placards are placed , announcing ^ No assessed taxes , nor Income-tax paid here . " Crowds cf operatives and their families from Stockport and other towns , flock a distance of seven miles to obtain relief , in the shape of soup and food , at Manchester . BBADFOED— 3 U ? . g ju \ d Abdcctigx—On Monday , Abraham Lightowler , coal hawker , was charged by the constable of North Bierley , with haviDg ' comnrittedarape on the person of Martha Roberts , aged 16 years . From the evidence gone into , it appeared that the offence was committed on Friday last , in a hay £ eld , that on fhe same evening
she was consigned to the care of a relative to appear against tbe prisoner on Monday , ( he having been taken on Friday . ) that at an early hour on Monday morning the-house was entered by tha chamber window , and the girl wa 3 abducted therefrom , and had not since "been heard of . From the character of the connections of tha prisoner , reasonable fears may be entertained J ' or the personal safety of the girl . The prisoner was remanded till search could be made for her . The retreat of the girl has been subsequently discovered ; her deposition has been taken ; - asd the man was on Wednesday fnither remanded nntil Friday ( yesterday . )
ZiOU&HBOROUGrH . —Diabolical Octrage . —On Saturday night , or early on Sunday morning , some evil disposed person orpersons , placed iu the room occupied by the Chartists , at Loughborough , a piece of wood , eleven inches long , and fonr and ahalf square , in which they had bored a hole , and deposited half a pound of gunpowder , plugging it down , aad making 3 fbse-hoJe in the tide . They then laid a train , and fired it ; but fortunately it did net go off . It was discovered on the Sunday morning , and on Mr . Skevington being informed of it , he immediately sent for Mr . Hague , Inspector of Police , to whom the instrument of destruction was eiven , together with pieces of cotton used for candlewick , which were found in different parts of the room and yard , partly burned . The landlord of the room also came in , La whose hand 3 and ihe police the matter at present Test . " ,
HTTDDEESFIEIjD . —A petition 15 now going round the town for signatures , to be presented to our representative , requesting him to use every constitutional means in his power to prevent the prorogation of Parliament until something effective is done to relieve the present distress . A _\ Ujfeelimj Overseer . —Price of a Coffin . —At the Oldham Petty Sessions , on Thursday , June 30 th , tin extremely poor woman , named Betty Fielding , a resident in Back King-street , Oldham , stated that she had applied to the overseer of Crompton with a request that , he would provide a coma for the burial of her child . She had prevailed upon him , with much difficulty , to pay the amount of the funeral dne-s , viz-, 3 s . 6 J . " The magistrates remarked , that
as the woman wa 3 in very poor cir ^ umsiances , they thought the humane overseer ou « bt to supply a coSu for the child . On hearing thii , tha guardian of the poor tffered her a shilling , to enable her to purchase the-aTticla wanted . The magistrates expressed conbte as to -wheiher almost any kind of a coffin was procurable for a shilling . Tbe gt- ! ierou 3 official then siid ho could gf t a well-made coffin for one sb . iliing 5 . nd sixpence . 'The magistrates anxious to test the accuracy of this statement , inquired of Mr . HaUiweli , overseer of Oldham , what would be the price 'f such a coffin as was wanted , under the . present circumstances . He replied that the cost would be six shillings and twopence . The magistrates reproved the overseer of Croapton
for his unfeeling and unmanly conduct , afttr whifih he promised that a suitable eoffia should be provided for the poor woman ' s child . The unfortunate woman applied on the following morning to the overseer for the eoffia , but in vain ; he refused to attend to her request , contrary to his promise at the sessions . . She applied a second time , but without iffect , and the child was interred at Oidham Church in a common box , which had been purcliasad of a grocer for fourpence . The ill-used female is in a most miserable stato . The unfeeling overseer of the poor alluded to is an occasional local preacher among the Primitive Methodists , and resides in Crompton . He certainly is a suitable candidate for an office under the New Poor Law . —Manchister

( Here is a sample of the charity of tha Church t ) At the same time he told his bearers that they ought not to withhold their charity even from the wicked .

MR . STUIIGE AND THE CHARTISTS OP NOTriNGHAM . TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN STAR . Sltt . r-In pur last glorioBa luminary somo questions were asked by "An Old Cbattist , " for whoso saysf . iction and information I beg to reply as follows : — Tbe Chartists of NottlnRhum , through the medium of yonr humble servant , pnWicly pledged Mr , Sturge 10 the who . * of tie principles contained in the People ' s Charter . It cannbt be denied tint Mr , Sturge is of the free trade party , bnt at the same time he is opposed to the New Poor Law Bill .
For myself , Sir , I am determined to agitate for nothing short of th © principles contained in tbe document before alluded to ; neither the New Poor La "™ , Corn Law R-jpeal , Factory Qusstion , or any other '' move ' or crotchet , shall draw my attpntibtv from tha '•• one . thing- needful , " and which , when obtained , will put everythinc ; else in its proper place . If my friend and brothej' , the " Old Chartist , " had carefully read tha Star , arid watched the proceedings of the Chartists of Nottingham , he would have observed that no time was lost in putting 11 strihcf of qiiestiops to Mr . Stuvge : in fact , he had not been in ths town of NottinghanL half an hour before the said questions were put to him , in the presence of fifteen thousand persons ; when , without ; my hesitation whatover ^ he declared that he perfectly a ^ rsed with us—^ Day ^ that he went farther than the CaarUHls nronoaed ffoinff .
I uvn as luvvch oppbwcl ti ini < lule-c ' , ass httmbttg and deceit as any man living . 7 have suffered sufficient at ; the h . iiicis of the " liberal s > ud enlightened " ' . 'niiddia class ; and I jia ^ vestrong f . zith that ; the " worktes" of NottirtKham will not be again entrapped into any halfand-half measures , but will Rteaaily and BtedfasVi ? push ou for the attainment of -their political lights , let who will oppose them . Trusting the above mav prove satisfactory to our brethrou ia all parts of the country , I have the honour to remain , " A yoang Chartist" of " Old Standing , " And , Mr . Editor , Yours , reapeotfuUy , James Sweet .
