      1 EEEST OF THE BEY . W . HILL , EDITOR OF THE " STAR , " [ Most of the readers of the Northern Siar will have Jearned of the arrest of its Editor , though Borne of them cannot as yet have learned it from the pages of that journal : Jer ; he First , and a portion of the Second Edition -were printed off , ere the fact -was known at the office itself . When the news did reach ns , the press was stopped several times caring the Murse of Friday , aud new matter apprizing those » f the readers who were then to supply with pap-T- of the new occurrences in connection with th : i : rests , was inserted . But this cdii only have be ^ a - * en by a few , comparatively , of the readers thererore the best- coarse wi 1 be to give all that has appeared in due order , so that all the readers may hkve the whole faet 3 before them at once , as far as we h ? . \ e been able to collec : them ]

      Leeds Police Office , Friday , Twelve o'clock This morning , about a quarter past nine , my gofj-. i Friend , . Mr . Hill , was arrested in the strt-cts of Leeds , by two officers from 2 Janehester , « n the authority of a warrant issued by Mr . J . F . Foster , J . P . ' and backedby a Leeds Magistral _ -. The charge is , as far as I can ascertain , one of " sedition , " arising out of words spoken

      at s-iiue meeting or other , " tending to exite a breueh of the Peace . " He was on his way to the > 7 ar-office , when he was pointed out to the M&'iehester police officers by one of the Leeds officers , ( who vas accompanyiDg them on their search . ) aad "brought to this' place without anv of his frieD < ls knowing of the arrest . WL- 'e waiting for his presence at the Star-office , to ] rc'pare the second edition of the paper , it r-rs intimated to me bv a friend that Mr . Hill

      hs . il i-een seen to enter the Police-office , aceompani' .-d by two strangers ; and it was believed that he was in custody . I iDStantly repaired to the place , where I now write , to ascertain if such was \ he fact . After waiting some little time , I saw Mr . Read , the Chief Constable , and on mj putting the question to him , he at ence informed me : hat the fact was so . I then applied to see Mr . Hill ; when Mr . Read informed me , that he was in the custody of the [ Manchester officer .- -, who alone could grant my request ; and that thev were then somewhere in the town

      procuring refreshment . " I therefore determined to r ^ vait their return , to make the request to iheni to be permitted to see my friend , before he is removed from this place to Manchester , which I expect he will be in the course of the day . I have now waited an hour-and-a-half ; but the officers have not made their appearance . I shall wait until they do , and communicate the result of Luy application as soon as I learn it . - - Jos .

      ARREST OF T . B . SMITH . Star Office , Fifteen minutes past One . I h ^ ve just returned from the police office , having lear . ied . what was the sort of " refreshment" the Manchester police officers bad gone to procure . They were absent on another arresting expedition ; and have just retnrned with Mr . T . B . Smith in custody , he being apprehended on a similar charge , indeed inelDe ' t'd in the same warrant with 51 r . Hill . Mr . Smith was taken at his own home , and his house was searched by the officers , and all papers or letters found there removed " iu custody " also . When Mr . Read had informed Inspector Tatloh , from Manchester , . who I was , I made a i forma" , application to be permitted to see Mr , Hill , ' ,

      befo . e he was removed from Leads ; and he imme- ; diate-j replied that my request should be granted , j I then asked " when t" and his reply was j ' Sometime in the coursft of the afternoon . " * Ccuid it be new" ? was my next question ; ana the i ansv . tr to it " no ; not just now : we have some refresiment to get : but you shall see him before we \ gtart . " " Will yon name a time ! " " Sometime abou : three o ' clock . If you will be at the Star office , ; we will send on for yon . " " From this conversation , and especially from the fact of " refreshment" being still wanted by the Manchester men , 1 infer that they have more arrests to make in this town ; and that they were anxious to g £ t them made , and the prisoners all together , ¦ before they permit any of them to be &e « n by their friendi .

      Mr . Bill has been kept in the " Stone jug" since his arrest . He is not , however , placed amongst the othf r inmates of the wretched hole used as a prison ; but . s considerately piaced in the women ' s ward , ( which happened to be empty , ) which he has , ( till just now that Mr . Smith has-joined him , ) occupied to himself . He and Mr . Smith , with any others that may be » ire--t- » d , will be removed to Manchester this afternoon , I believe ; and be brought up tor examination to-Eorrow , at the New Bailey Court . I shall go np to Manchester with them , or after them , for the purpese of procuring bail , e&c . I shall also attend the examination to-morrow , and communicate the result in an edition of the Star , to be published in L » edi to-morrow evening . Josh . Hobson .

      NorUiern Star Office , Friday , Quarter-pasi Two . I have just seen Mr . Hill . He was brought to this Office by the Manchester officers , accompanied by a Leed 3 police sergeant . He had been taken to his own residence , I believe , and his honse searched . When the party arrived here , Inspector Tatlor addressing me , Siid , tuat * they had found on Mr . Hill a number of keys , which he informed them opened certain drawers and boxes at the Northern Star office , and that he wished to see what was contained in them . " I immediately answered the application by another qnesiion : " Have yon any authority to come here to search ! Have you a search warrant ? This place is mine . Whatever is here is in ht possession , and unless you hare authority to come here and search , I most assuredly shall not permit such a search to be made . In this office are a vast number ot papers and documents of all kinds : and I shall not consent

      to th sir being exposed to the gaza of strangers , unless there i 3 authority to compel me . If you have a warrant , show it , and I will not resist you : if you have uot , no search siiail be made here . " On this , the Inspector said that " the locked drawers and boxes nere , of which Mr-Hill had the Keys , were his ; and it were those he wished to see . " My answer was , ** whatever locked drawers or boxes are in this office , belong to the office ; and Mr . Hill has been entrusted with the keys , because such drawers or boxes are for the reception of those official document , belonging the office , over which he ha 3 charge * But snch documents are no more his . than the books belonging the establishment are . the property cf the Clerk there , ( pointing to Mr . Abdill , ) who has the charge of them . Whatever is in this cffice , or house , ism < ne . If you have any authority to search my house , show it , and go to work . If you have no authority , it cannot be done . " He then replied , 'I awa no warrant : and if you object , of eonrse I must refrain . "

      I tr . en asked if it was likely they would depart for Manchester this day ; and received for answer it was possible they might not . I then a ^ ked , if such was tne case , could bail be accepted for Mr . Hill ' s appearance in the morning ; for I should not like that he should hare to be kept in the Leeds ** Stone Jng ' all nieht ; and the inspector said that he could not accept bail , and the Magistrates would be gone from the Court . He , however , would endeavour to leave for Manchester to-night . After shaking hands -with Mr . Hill , ' and after hearing from him that the alleged charge against him is for attending and speaking at a meeting in Manchester on the 17 th of Angusi last ; he was con-Teyed back to his quarters in the " Ston > 3 Jug , " Tinder a promise , from the officers , that I should be allowed to see him again before he is taken off to Manchester .

      ARREST OF G . J . HARNEY . Star Office , Friday , Three o'Clock . I hvre just seen one of the guards of the North Midland Railway , and he informed me that Mr . G . J . Hjlbjtet , of Sheffield , had been brought in the custody of Manchester offioer , by the last Derby train , to the Normanton Station , whence he would be taken to Manchester . Jos . Hobsoh . Northern Star Office , Friday , Half-past Three . TMb afternoon ' s post has brought a letter from Manchester , communicating the information that the house of Mr . Jakes Leach , was entered this morning at two o'clock , by Mr . Superintendent Beswick and a number of the police force , who arrested Mr . Lsach , on a warrant charging him with having attended an Segal meeting &t Manches ter , on the 17 th of August .

      The letter also communicates the fact that Mr . Thos . Rail-tow , Mb . Cbrjstopbbk Doyle , and the R * v Jamis ^ HOLtFiELD have also been arrested on the same charge . Northern Star Office , Friday , half-past Si * . I have just learned that Mr , Hill aad Mr . Smith are not to be removed to-night ; bat that it is intended to keep them in the Leeds "Stone Jug " all night ; bail being refused . A bed of straw will be their portion ! Never mind ! ! The fact

      will bs treasured up . Arrests have been made before to-day ! and good men have been incarcerated in gaol S But all the arrests and all the imprisonments have not put a stop to the march of poverty through the land : nor wili the present ones arrest the progress of national ruin ! They will not add one hour to the numbered days of faction ! The THING is in throes ! It lays about itself most unmercifully before it is utterly prostrate ; but all sits trugsles ani stripes will not prevent or delay the approaching END ! Jos . Hobson .

      ARREST OF ME . O'CONNOR , AND OF MR . JOHN CAMPBELL . Leeds , Saturday morning , Eight o ' clock . The Evening Star of yesterday , contains the following announcement : — ' Our readers , and the public generally will learn with surprise that Mr . O'Connor was arrested at his residence early this morning , on a warrant for sedition at Manchester . Mr . O'Cknnor intended to go to Stafford to-morrow , although hia medical advisers would by no means recommend it , for the purpose of defending the unhappy victims to classlegislation ; and this arrest has been made , doubtless , to deprive him of his liberty at this important period , that hie political enemies may sustain their character of cowardioe . However , if Ri >; ht can prosper , Mr . 'O'Connor will not Gisacpoint his friends—he will be upon the spot , prepared to give every service in his power to those who have been arrested .

      " We are unable to-day to acknowledge any receipts for the Defence Fund , for while a friend of Mr . O'Connor ' s was opening the letters , eleven in number , at the station-house in Gardener ' s Lane , in which place Mr . O'Connor is at present confined , they were taken by the Inspector . The Posf-office orders were offered to the party iu question , bu ; he refused to take one part without the other . " No instructions have at present reached the Statjon at Gardener ' s Lane as to the examination of Mr . O'Connor ; but we shall report progress , step by step , on every occurrence .

      " We regret to state , aiso , that at present Mr . John Campbell , one of the Executive , is also confined upon a similar warrant to that against Mr . O'Connor , in the loathsome cell next to the latter . Both are in excellent spirits , though Mr . O'Connor ' s chest is in such a state of inflammation as to have induced bis gaolers to call in medical advice , the result of which is , that a certificate has been given to the purport that his dungeon Ehould be less circumscribed . "

      REMOVAL OF MR . HILL TO MANCHESTER . It is determined upon that the removal of Mr . Hill and Mr . T . B . Smith to Manchester , shall take place to day . They are to depirt by the sixteen minutes past ten train . I cannot ascertain whether they will be placed before the Magistrates for examination this day or not ; but I begin to infer from the movements of the officers that such will not be the case ; and tfcat they will not be produced in Conrt for examination before Monday . Of course bail will be refused !! The plea will be that

      " bail cannot be accepted till the nature of the charge is known ; and the nature of the charge cannot be known until the parties are examined , ' &c . &c . It is easy to see throngh all thiB . To keep the parties in prison for four days , even should the charge against them be groundless , is a feat worth pome trouble to accomplish ! The Mercury of this morning has the following announcement of these arrests : it is wall worthy of record in these pages , and of deep attention from the Chartist body : —

      SEVEN CHARTISTS ARRESTED . " Yesterday the following Chartists were arrested on a charge of beiDg present and uttering seditious language it a meeting of Chartist delegates , held at Manchester , on the 16 th day of August last : —The Rev . Wm . Hill , T . B . Smith , G . J . Harney , C . D . Doyle , J . Leach , T Railton , aud the Rev . J . Scholefield . Hill , who is the editor of the Northern Star , was apprehended in Briggate by two policemen , having warrants signed by the Manchester magistrates , and on being arrested , he was forthwith lodged in prison . In the- course of the forenoon , the same policemen went in search of T . B . Smith , a kind of Chartist local preacher , raiding at the east end of the town , who was speedily secured and placed along with Hill in the Court-House . G . J . Harney it will be remembered , is a leading Chartist , who

      made a sort of sham-election circuit for the suffrages ot the West Riding at the last election ; he was arrested at Sheffield , and his companion , ( J . Learh , ) who also figured before the electors of this Riding on the occasion just alluded to , was arrested at Manchester , along with the three remaining Chartist leaders , Doyle , Railton , and Scholefield . It is probable that these arrests have taken place just now in order that the parties may be brought to trial at the opening of the Special Commission at Liverpool , which will take place in a few days . We hear that a warrant has also been issued for the apprehension of Mr . Feargus O'Connor , who now resides in London for the purpose of editing his London evening publication—the Evening Star ; he having been present at the meeting of delegates at Manchester . "

      » ' We believe that the meeting of Delegates on the 16 th of August was a private , not a public meeting ; and it is conjectured that the adoption by the meetiBg of an infiamatory and seditious placard is one ground of charge against the Delegates who have been arrested . The friends of Mr . Hill arlege that he opposed theadoption of the placard . It is conjeetured that there rausthaveheen spies at the meeting , the proceedings of which were reported very briefly in the Northern Star . Passing over the bad taste evinced by the Editor of the Mercury , in exposing his p ^ tty personal spite and malignity , by omitting the usual courtesies of society in speaking of his brother Editor ; passing over the paltry exhibiton of wounded false pride at such a time and under such circumstances ;

      passing over this , for the preEent , though not Jorgelting it , one is struck with one or two things in this demi-tfficial publication . At a late hour last night , the Mercury did not kuow what he has this mornicg published ; for his Reporter was at our office door trying to beg a copy of the Northern Star then printed off , to enable him to state the facts connected with the arrest ; and he was reduced to the necessity of copying our Posting Bill to get the names of these who had , up to that time , been arrested . The particulars then , so minutely given , were supplied by some one after that time : aud these particulars let out the fact that the alledged seditious words were

      Btiered on the 16 th August last . Yet the Manchester authorities have delayed making the arrests till the 30 th of September , a few days before the sitting of the Epecial commission by which th 6 j are to be tried ! I No doubt this is done to give the accused plentt of time to learn the nature of the charge vamped up against them ; to well weigh the evidence by which ihat charge is attempted to be supporteo . ; and to prepare their answer in defence ! No doubt , the arrests being delayed till note , is lor this object , —and for thi . s object alone . There are other things deserving of note in this curious announcemefit ; but I must for the present refrain . I am just off for Manchester . Jos . Hobson .

      ARREST CF MR . ARTHUR . Carlisle , Friday Evening , half-past , four o ' clock . We have just received a letter from a correspondent , containing the following announcement : " 1 have just time to inform you that Mr . James Arthur , bookseller , has this moment been arrested by an officer from Manchester , who is , at this time , searching Mr . Arthur ' s house . The warrant charges him with exciting the people to riot , &c . "

      EXAMINATION OF THE CHARTIST PRISONERS AT MANCHESTER . Northern Scar Office , Saturday Evening , Half-past Sue . In saoeessrre Editions we have noticed the arrests which have been made from amongst the ranks of the people . We now proceed to lay before our readers every particular ve have been able to obtain . At the New Bailey , Manchester , on Friday ( yesterday ) the Rev . James Scholefield and his son

      William , James Leach , Bernard Macartney , John Massey , Robert RamBden , Thomas Railton , Christopher Doyle , John Ellison , John Norman , and John Barr&tt , were brought Wore Mr . D . Maude , Esq ., and David Price , Esq , fox examination . The charge against them , as expressed in the warrants , was , " thatthey did wickedly conspire , combine , confederate , and agree together , to excite her majesty ' s liege subjects te sedition and disaffection against the laws of this realm , and incited them to riots , tumults and illegal assemblies , and by force ,

      Untitled Article

      violence , and intimidation , prevented certain of Her Majesty ' s subjects i ' rosa following their Jarcful occupation , aud to force them to depart therefrom , and so disturb the peace of our sovereign lady the Queen and the Kingdom of England . " The following prisoners were then placed at the bar : — John Massey , Robert Ramsden , James Leach , Thomas Railton , Christopher Doyle , James Scholefield Wm . Scholefield , Bernard M'Cartney , John Ellison , and John Norman . Mr . Gregory , addressing the court , said , —The prisoners at the bar . Sir , stand charged with conspiracy of a very serious oharacter ; we are not prepared with the witnesses ; and , under these

      ciroumBt&ncea , appearing here on the part of the crown , I have to apply to the Court to remand the prisoners to Tnesday next . I understand , with respect to one gentleman taken , and now here with his sen , that it would be a matter of great personal inconvenience to him and to his eon , if both of them were to be absent from their peculiar employment at the same time . They are moving in a more respectable station of life than the others ; and it would of course be the wish of the government , as far as is consistent with safety , to afford any indulgence that can be granted previous to trial . Under these circumstances , of course , I should wish a favourable reception to be given to the application that may be made on their behalf .

      Mr . R'chard Cobbett , attorney—I did not hear that you were speaking , Sir , before jou stated that under the circumstances you wished the prisoners to be remanded . May I ask what the circumstances are ! Mr . Gregory—There aro various other parties involved in the same charges , and against whom warrants are issued , aud who , 1 suppose , will most probably be brought up by the time I mentioned ; and it is desirable and convenient for the purpose of public justice , that the charges should not be entered into till they are taken . Mr . Cobbett—To-day is Friday .

      Mr . Gregory—To-day is Friday , and I ask for a remand to Tuesday . Mr . Cobbett—to the Bench—But you see , Sir , it is rather a long time to ask for a remand , when no reason is stated , except that they intend , if they can , to take other parties . Now , under any possible circumstances , the ^ asa may be as easily proved against these men , without the presence of the other parties , as with them . An , it it even were hot so , I would submit that at all events it is never usual to remand for bo long , unless it is Inteuted to take bail in the meantime ; because five days is something , not merely a joko . 1 say nothing as to Messrs . Scholefield , for whom 1 appear ; because what Mr . Gregory has already said upon that point , meets what we should wish exactly ; but with respect to Mr . Leaoh , for whom also

      I appear , I am bound to make a special application . He is already held to bail , and in very heavy bail , too , to appear at the Speoial Commission to sake his trial . He was taken at such a time that he could not traverse at the Speoial Commission to a future assizes ; he is nowgetting up his dei ' enoe for the trial , which is to take place upon the former charge ; and his being taken here , and now kept in custody , may absolutely prevent the possibility of his defending himself as he might otherwise have done , when the trial comes on . The same observations do not apply to the rest of the prisoners , because , if they please , they may traverse to the following assizes ; but he cannot ; and , therefore , it is a- great hardship upon him not to let him be at large on bail ; and I think any reasonable man will say , that the bail he is already under , ia quite sufficient to secure his appearance .

      Mr . Edward Bent , attorney , said , he appeared for Bernard M'Curtney ; and the very reason which Mr . Gregory hftd urged on behalf of Mr . Scholefield and his son was applicable with double force to his cli . nt . He was a bookseller in Liverpool ; and , in order to maintain himself , his wife , and children , it was requisite that he should be able personally to appear there . If there was a reason for granting the indulgence to Mr . Scholefield , he repeated , the same reason was doubly applicable to M'Cartney , who was the sole provider for his family . Mr . Maude asked the prisoners in turn , who did not appear by advocates , whether they had anything to say , why they should not be remanded , and they all answered in the negative . Mr . Gregory said he had very little to say in reply . With respect to the prisoners already under bail , they were under bail to answer a perfectly distinot charge , and one certainly , serious as it might be , of a less serious nature than the present .

      Mr . Cobbett . —Perhaps we might be indulged by Mr- Gregory statiDg what the present chargo is ? Mr . Gregory—It is a charge of conspiracy . Mr . Cobbttt—Then , you see , we are already held over in enormous bail to answer a similar charge . Mr . Maude^—It is stated that is the more serious charge . Mr . Bent—Perhaps , Mr . Gregory , you will state what it is . Mr . Gregory—Certainly I shall not . I have already stated , that it is a charge of conspiracy . Mr . Bent—But is it of a more serious nature than that already heard against some of the prisoners ? Mr . Gregory—It is certainly a very serious charge . Mr . Maude said there were two questions for the consideration cf the court . The first was the request

      to have the prisoners remanded , which was a reasonable one ; and the second , whether the time asked for was a reasonable time . He thought it a reasonable request j these prisoners had all been taken within a few hours ; and he could not say that it would be reasonable to require the witnesses to attend , and the evidence to be gone into , within a few hours after apprehension of the prisoners . Then as to the four day ' s time ; it was clear that the parties must have some time to make the necessary inquiries , and to get the witnesses in readiness . All the prisoners had been taken up on warrants ; and the court must assume , that the warrants were granted on sufficient information , for such information was stated on the warrants . He therefore felt that no reason had been shown against remanding the prisoners to Tuesday .

      Mr . Bent—Allow me to remark that Mr . Gregory and the other gentlemen employed by government—Mr . Maude—I heard you before , Mr . Bent , and I thought you had done . Mr . Bent—But I had not done , Sir , and I wish to observe , that the gentlemen employed by Government are in the meantime preparing their briefs , their evidence , and every thing ; and these are kept wholly inthedark , while the prisoners have no opportunity afforded them . We are kept wholly in the dark as to the charge against them , and we are now very cLsely upon the eve of the assizes . Mr . Maude ( to Mr . Gregory)—You are not ready with your witnesses , of course . Mr . Gregory—No , Sir .

      Mr . Maude—Then I think there is no reason why the prisoners should not be remanded to Tuesday . With respect to the Scholefislds , Mr . Cobbefct , have you any application to make 1 Mr . Cobbett—My application is , Sir , that they be let out . Mr . Gregory—The grounds upon whioh the application was made to me were those of private convenience ; and if the release of one of the prisoners would answer that purpose , I , on the part of the crown , have no objection that the should be held to bail . Mr . Scholefield—May I be allowed by Mr . Cobbett ' s indulgence to state a few facts . I have engaged Mr . Cobbett to conduct my case , and I am much obliged to him for his introducing it in the way he has done ; but

      Mr . Maude—I will hear any thing you have to say . but I think it will be well if you consider whether you had not better leave your case to the gentleman you have retained . Mr . Scholefield—I am aware that I am in some measure in the hands of Mr . Cobbett ; but if I might be allowed to say any thing further in strengthening his suggestion , 1 was disposed to 6 tate two or three facts . Mr . Cobbett— -I do not understand that there is objection to your application . Mr . Maud—No , I believe there is no objection ; it is on the ground that you have public dudes to perform . Mr . Gregory—Of course I must call for security . Mr . Maude—Certainly ; there is a difference between him and other parties . ( To Mr . Cobbett ) You will be prepared with securities i

      Mr . Scholefield—M y Bon , though I am proud of him , cannot , I am sorry to say , discharge my duties . A part of those duties are medical , and there are my duties on Sunday . f i ^; £ 2 J T understood that your son could fnlnl the duties in your absence . Mr Scholefield-No , sir ; my duties are medical ; and there are my duties as a minister also . What do you charge my son with ? , Mef ' v t ( t ? ' J G ^ gory > r Bame as the rest . Yon have lumped them all in one charge . Mr . Gregory—Pardon me ; there is a separate charge against the son . « si » -r » i * Mr . Scholefield-As to my son , Ishouldlikehim to be examined ; for he is perfectly innocent . He has no more to do with that placard than MrMaude has .

      Mr . Gregory—You know as wall as I do , that I am not the person 10 hold tho warrant . Mr . Bent then applied to Mr . Beswick for the warrant ; and he said , that that prisoner had been apprehended in Liverpool , and he did not hold the warrant . Mr . Cobbett , having had the warrant against Mr . William Scholefield handed to him , said , the son ' s warrant I see is for publishing that placard , and also for conspiracy . Mr . Soholefield—I beg to say a few words on the part of my son . This son of mine has no mere to oo with that placard than aoy man in that court . I was surprised , extremely to , when they took off , not my son only , but I may say the right hand of my family ; for I have no wife , and my house is now left in the care of a woman servant , with my daughters . The publio duties 1 have to perform , I am so circumstanced , that he cannot perform for me ; but as to that placard , mv son knows nothing about it .

      Mr . Maude—It stands consented to on the part of the crown , that the voung man shall be released till Tuesday , upon giving security for his re-appeavance on Tuesday next . Mr . Cobbett—But you see , Sir , the application is on the part of the father . Mr . Maude ^—l am stating what the consent is . Mr . Cobbett—My application , which I understand was consented to on the part of Mr . Gregory , was for the father ; indeed it was for both , but the material party is the father . Mr . Gregory—Your application to me was made in such a shape , as conveyed to my mind the idea , tbat the release of the son would answer your purpose { and it was upon those terms , and tho ° e terms only , that I was understood to consent . I see no reason now to alter my determination . Mr . Maude—So that if the son be released , probably , as the father says , he is his right hand , he will be his representative for most purposes until

      Tuesday . Mr . Cobbett—I beg to press the case of Mr . Leach , which I put before . Mr . Maude—I cannot say , merely because a party is already bailed on a lighter charge , that I should make , on that account , a distinction between him and the other prisoners . I caunot think that that should make any difference . Mr . Cobbett—The offence , eo far as I can judge of it , is precisely the same as the previous charge . He stands differently from the other prisoners , because thorest may traverse to a subsequent assizes , for the purpose of getting up their defences ; but you have already fixed him so , that he cannot do so . The representative of the crown comes here , takes him up for a similar offence , and by that means effectually prevents him preparing his defence to the former charge . If it is to bo so , it is a complete defeating of

      justice-Mr . Maude—Wo should be very glad to take care that what you state should not necessarily happen . Mr . Cobbett—It makes all the difference to him . Mr . Gregory—It can make no difference . You know that he will have an opportunity of traversing , with respect to this second charge ; he has already had a full month and upwards , for the preparation of his defence to the first , with a full knowledge of what the charge was . Mr . Maude—They all stand remanded to Tuesday , with the exception of the younger Scholefield . What bail are you prepared with ? . " Mr . Cobbett—It is for me to ask what you demand , Sir . Mr . Maude—Our offer is not a mere nominal one . It would nut be reasonable to require bail to an amount that you know the prisoner cannot procure Can you find two sureties in £ 100 each I Mr . Cobbett—I have no doubt we can , Sir . The principal trouble would be to get some one to examine ; he bail , and say that it is sufficient .

      Mr . Maude—Mr . Beswick , I daro say , will give immediate attention to it ; and T shall be very happy , if the sureties are ready while I am in town , to take the recognizances at once . Mr . Beswick—I think Mr . Cobbett has experienced no difficulty in this way before . Mr . Cebbett—lam no judge of the difficulty ; but parties have told me , that they have experienced very great difficulty . Mr . Beswick—I assure you , Sir , they have not indeed . Mr . Scholefield—I feel very sorry , but I would

      wish to appeal to the court , and say that I am ready to offer anything I can guarantee for my personal appearance , that , if allowed bail , I shall be forthcoming at any time . Between this and Tuesday , Sunday will be here ; and on that day duties will devolve upon me personally , and I have no substitute that can perform them . I am sure I will throw no obstacles in the way of the case . I will guarantee my life , if it is spared to me , to be with you again whenever you want me . Mr . Maude—I think I cannot say anything further at present : your application has been made and considered .

      Messrs . James Barrow , draper , of 94 , Great Ancoats-street , and David Hordern , draper , of 19 , Portland-street , then tendered themselves as sureties for Mr . William Scholefield . Mr . Beswick said , that they were both well known to him ; and he believed them both to be sufficient bail for the amount fixed . Mr . Maude—Very well ; then I will take the bail now . William Scholefield , teacher and schoolmaster , then entered iiito his own recognizance in £ 200 , and the two parties named into sureties in £ 100 each , for his appearance at half-past twelve o ' clock on Tuesday next , at the New Bailey Court . Mr . Maude , in answer to applications , said , he would give an order for the admittance of Mr . Cobbett and Mr . Bent , to see their clients inside the

      pr on . The prisoners were then removed , about a quarter before two o ' clock . New Bailey , Manchester , Saturday , 1 o ' clock . Mr . James Arthur , of Carlisle , Mr . George Julian Harney , of Sheffield , Mr . Richard Ollcy , of Sheffield , and Mr . John Campbell , of London , have just been brought up . The magistrates present were John F . Foster , Esq ., Daniel Maude , Esq ., and G . W . Wood , Esq . the

      Mr . Gregory ( Government solicitor ) addressing the magistrates , said , that the four prisoners had been apprehended by warrants , and were charged with the same offence , and in the same manner , as those persons against whom he appeared yesterday . He proposed to take the same step with them , and only applied that they might be remanded Until Tuesday . Mr . Bent , solicitor , said he appeared for Mr . Arthur , who was anxious to know on what charge he had been apprehended . Mr . Gregory—He has heard the warrant read .

      Mr . Bent—He has had no opportunity of meeting the charge . Of course if you remand him , you wiJi permit me to sea him in the gaol ? Mr . Foster—Certainly . The prisoners then , after being cautioned , were told that if they wished to make any statement they were at liberty to do so . Mr . Otley said he had no objection to make to the remand . All he knew of the matter was that he was innocent , and as he had always understood that in the eye of the law every man was considered innocent until he had been found guity by a jury , he thought he was entitled to ask to be allowed to give bail until Tuesday . Mr . Foster—That point is already decided . Mr . Harney said he should say nothing until he had heard iully the charge intended to be made against him .

      Mr . Campbell—I have nothing to say . I heard the warrant read over when I was arrested ; and I should not be surprised if , being a Chartist , the Government should hang me . 1 believe they would do it if they could . Mr . Harney then made application for the use of pen , ink , and paper , in order that he might communicate with his friends aud prepare his defence My . Foster—You will have them subject to the regulations of thegaol . We cannot interfere in the gaoler ' s rules . Mr . Harney—They may read all I write ; I only

      want to communicnte with my fneuds . Mr . Foster—Your application has been answered . It was then arranged that at ten o ' clock on Tuesday morning the charges would be entered upon , and the prisoners were all remanded till that time . Shortly aftei these four prisoners had left the dock , Mr . John Thornton , of Boiton , was brought up on the Bame charge . He made no remark , and was remanded until Tuesday . Quarter to Three o'Clock . This moment the Rev . William Hill , Mr . T . B . Smith , Robert Brooks , of Todmordeu , and William

      Fletcher , of : -, were placed at the bar , before J . F . Foster , Esq ., D . Maude , Esq ., and G . W . Wood , Esq . The warrants on which they had been severally arre 3 ted were banded up to the Bench . Mr . Foster , addressing the prisoners , said , that they were not prepared to enter into the charge against them then , and tbat the other parties connected with the case were remanded until Tuesday next , at ten o ' clock in the forenoon ; they also would have to abide by that decision . Mr . Hill asked by what authority be had been confined in the " Stone Jug" at Leeds for twenty , four hours , and had not been taken before a magistrate ! Mr . Foster—We have nothing to do with what has been done at Leeds ; that will be a question for another place .

      Mr . Hill—Then as mine is a bailable case , I not beiDg charged with felony , you are bound to accept bail until Tuesday . Mr . Fo&ter . —We can make no difference in your case ; you must remain in custod y . Of course your solicitor or attorney will have every access to you in prison , in order to assist in your defence . The prisoners were then removed from the bar and sent to join their companions in solitude . As soon jus Mr . Hill had been removed from the Bar , Mr . Uobson , who was in oourt , rose , and , ad-

      dressing Mr . Foster , said , Sir , I am a friend of ono of tho prisoners who has just left that bar . I am deeply interested in hia welfare , and am bound in some measure to see after his defence . I mention this as a sort of reason for my application to fee permitted to communicate personally , and freely , with him while in prison . Mn Foster—That cannot be allowed , at least at the pr sent . His solicitor may see him . Mr . Hobson—I am departing again for Leeds this evening . The solicitor to the prisoner I apply for lives in Yorkshiro ; and it is bcoause I apprehend that a message may be needed to that solicitor from his client that I make the application . Mr . Foster—Who do you apply to see 1 Mr . Hobson—Mr . Hill . Mr . Foster—We have no objection to send for him back here again , and yon can speak to him here . - Mr . Hobson—Please do so .

      Mr . Hill was accordingly rf called , and on his appearance was informed by Mr . Foster of Mr . Hobson ' s application and readiness to convey a message to bis Solicitor , should he have one to entrust him with . As Mr . l ^ Lobson stood some yards distant from the place where Mr . Hill was , the latter evidently hesitated to speak , from a seeming conviction that every word he said would be overheard by all in court . The magistrates thereupon intimated that Mr . Hobson mijiht speak to him in close contact ; an > 1 he , acting upon the hint given , had some three or four minutes conversation with Mr . Hill in whispers , and received his instructions . At the close of this conversation , Mr . Hill again addressed the Bench , and said , that though they had determined to remand him till Tuesday , and not to admit of bail , he presumed they would impose no other restraint upon him than what was necessary for safe custody . Ho expected to be permitted to have books , and to write to his friends .

      Mr . Foster . —Of course , subject to the rules of the prison , affecting prisoners before trial . You will not bo permitted to write what you please ; and what you co write must be submitted to examination . But every facility , consistent with the situation you occupy will be afforded . Mr . Hill bowed and thanked the Bench . Mr . Hobson remarked that perhaps Mr . Hill ' s application arose from the fact that whil « in custody yesterday at Leeds , he had applied for pen , ink , and paper to write a letter to the members of the church over whom he has the pastoral caro , to apprize them of his situation , aud of his probable inability to be present with them iu their worship on Sunday ; and that he had been refused .

      Mr . Foster was sorry to hear that , but he could not help it . All he coald do was to promise that whatever could now be granted or done , consistent with the general rules of the prison , to make Mr . Hill ' s situation as easy as possible , should be done . Mr . Hill again thanked the Bench , and Mr . Foster remarked that his friends might provide him with food if they thought prooer . Mr . Hobson then shook hands with tho prisoner as he stood at ihe bar , and the Court broke up ; Mr . Hill returning to his new domicile , the New Bailey Cell ; the magistrates going home to dinner ; and Mr Hobson departing back again for Leeds , after making arrangements to have Mr . Hill supplied with food from some friends in the town .

      APPREHENSION OF FEARGUS O'CONNOR ON A CHARGE OF SEDITION . From the London Times . Feargus O'Connor , who had hitherto steered clear of the meshts of the law in any part he might have taken in the recent Chartist disturbances , has at length been apprehended by the police authorities , and lodged in custody on a charge of sedition . It appears , that in consequence of certain discoveries recently made by the magistracy of Manohester , it was determined by that body to issue a warrant for the apprehension of Mr . O'Connor , and the warrant was placed in the hands of an officer , who came to town for the purpose of effecting his capture , in which he succeeded this morning at an early hour . " Mr . O'Connor was taken at his own residence , at Hammersmith , at nine o ' clock , and conveyed to the police station-house in Gardener ' s-lane , Westminster .

      Information of thefactof his apprehension having been given at the Home-office , a messenger was despatched to request the presence of the Solicitor-General , Sir Wm . Follctt . Mr . Hall , the chief magistrate of Bow-street police-court , attended by Mr . Burnaby , his clerk , a . rived at the Home-office shortly afterwards , for the purpose of taking a private examination of the prisoner ; he was . however , removed to Bow-street , where , shortly after one o ' clock , he and John . Campbell , who keeps a shop for the sale of Chartist publications , No . 180 , High Holborn , were brought up in the custody of Inspector Hughes , A division , and . M * Mullen , of the Manchester Police ) , for the purpose of entering into recognizances on a charge of sedition at Manchester m the month of August last . ¦ .- . ' . The case was disposed of in the magistrate ' s-privato room , Mr . Hall not being the sitting magistrate of the day .

      Mr . Waddington , barrister , and Mr . Faulkner , solicitor , attended on the part of the Crown to watch tho proceedings , and Mr . Concannon , a solicitor , appeared on the part of Mr . O'Connor . Mr . Henry , the magistrate of Lambeth-street , and Mr . Wray , the receiver-general of the police force , were also present . Mr . O'Connor being conducted into the room , Mr . Burnaby , the chief clerk , proceeded to read the warrant of Mr . John Frederick Foster , a magistrate of Manchester , which charged Mr . O'Connor

      with "having on tho 17 th of August , with divers others persons , unlawfully and wickedly conspired , confederated , and agreed to excite Her M . aj : sty * s liege subjects to sedition and disaffection against . the laws of this realm , and to cause insurrections , riots , tumultuous and illegal assemblies , and by force , violence , and intimidation , to prevent certain of Her Majesty ' s subjects from following their lawful occupations , and to force them to depart therefrom , and to disturb the peace of our said Lady the Queen , and the kinpdom of England . "

      Mr . Waddington said , he had the honour to appear on the part of the Crown * and he was willing to hear what answer the defendant had to mike to the charge . The defendant replied , he had performed a most magnanimous act , in preventing the people trout committing outrages , aud he never considered he should be called upon to account for such conduct . Mr . Hall said , that whatever confessions the defendant bad to make , or whatever examinations he had to undergo , should be taken in the regular course before the magistrates at Manchester , it being

      his duty merely to apportion the amount of bail after a plea had been put in to the charge . The defendant replied he had no answer to make except that he was not guilty of the ohurge , but he wished the examination of his physician to be taken as to the state of his health . He would in a short time be prepared with bail if require ! ; and , as to the charge , he had no nvore to say , except that in consequence of the active measures he had aaupttd to prevent serious outrages taking place upon the Corn Law question , he had been charged by the rress with being iri the pay of tho Tory party .

      Mr . Hall—Then I am to understand you mean to put in bail ? The defendant replied in the affirmative . Mr . Waddington observed , that if bail was pro cured in London , the defendant could not know , the nature of the depositions ; but if that was not donthe should be forthwith conveyed to Manchester , where the case would begone iuto . Thedef-ndent said , he would prefer putting in bail before Mr . Hall , from whom he would meet with every kindness ; but if he was compelled to appear beforethe beach iu Manchester , he was sure to meet with insult , although he bad done much good , which the magistrates th ^ re would not readily admit . ¦ Mr . Hall—Then you are ready and willing at present to put in bail ? ,. The defendant said he would before the rising of the Court .

      Mr . Hall—Are you under other recognizances at present ? Dcfe . dent—Yea ; to keep tho peace . Mr . liiill—Was that upon a Government proscoulicn ? Defendant—Yes ; I was obliged to find bail after I was discharged from York Castle . Mr . ¦¦ Waddington headed to observe that' tho Government did not wish to press for excessive bail , although the chargs was of a very serious nature . ' M :-. Hall said . , the charge in the warrant was of a caaracter very little short cf treason , and the public would naturally expect that the amount of bail required would he commensurate with tho offence , and in case it was procured within a reasonable time , the defendant might be saved the trouble of being sent to Manchester . The amount of bail he should call npon the defendant to enter into would be , himself in the &um of £ 1 . 000 , and two sureties in £ 500 each , to answer to the charge at the next gaol delivery at Liverpool .

      The defendant thanked the magistrate , and ho was conducted by the officer into an adjoining room . The other defendant was then brought in , and having admitted ho was the person charged in the warrant , said , tbafc baring been only a few hours in custody , he had had no time to communicate with his friends , who would procure the required securities . Mr . Waddington told him the same time would be allowed him to find bail as if the offence was committed in London , which was until the risiDg of tho j Court .

      Mr . Half told the defendant he had time enough ; to send to his friends , and the amount of baillio : Bhould require would be , himself in £ 800 , and two sureties in £ 400 . each , to answer the charge at tnei next gaol delivery at Manchester . 1

      Defendant—Oh ! that ' s impossible ; in fact , it ' s tantamount to sayintr I must be sent to prison , for I cannot procure such bail . , Mr . Hall said , the only reason why he made any difference in the amount of ban was , that he was m a more humble sphere of li'e than the other defendant , although the nature of the charge in the warrant was the same . Mr . Waddington said , it only remained to have the defendant conveyed to Manchester in custody by the officer . Tho defendant was then removed . In the course of the evening Mr . Ge&ve , of Shoe , lane , Fleet-street , and Mr . Oldfield , of Bolt-court , Fleet-street , wore accepted as sureties for Mt O'Connor , and after a description was taken of the several letters which were found upon him , he left the court accompanied by his friends .

      The Evening Star of Saturday contains the following account of Mr . O'Conkob ' s arrest and appearance at Bow-street . It also contains , as the reader will find , some important corrections of the erbobs ( . <) in the Times ' s statement , given above : — Mr . O'Connor was arrested at his bouse . No . 6 Chapel-place , HafflmerBmitta , at half-past eight o ' clock ' in the morning , by M'Mullen , one of the Manchester police , assisted by four of the Metropolitan establishment , and was conveyed to Gardener's-lane Stationhouse , ¦ wh 6 re , after surrendering hia keys , and being asked If be had any other property , he ¦ was locked up in one of the cslls . The want of ventilation , and the circumatance of a filthy privy being in the cell made the atmosphere so offensive , that Mr . O'Connor yeas obliged to Bend for his physician , who had bean in attendance on him for the last ten days . When the physician arrived , he ordered Mr . O'Connor to be instantly remov . ed from the cell , and gave a certificate to the following effect : —

      . "I certify that I have been in attendance on Mr-Feargus O Connor for the lust ten days , that he lg labouring under an affection ofths hsart , not oreanicbut functionary , and that bis confinement in the cell where he now is , is calculated to do him a serious injury ; and I further affirm , tbat although it is not in my district , the sdd cell is unfitted for the reception of any person . Notwithstanding this certificate , Mr . O'Connor was still detained in the same cell for more than two hours The proprietor of the Evening Star having received information of Mr . O Connor ' s anest , proceeded to the Stutiun-house . taking with him some letters which to

      ^ vere dresed Mr . O'Connor , as Treasurer to the Defence Fund , and which , by Mr . O'Connor ' s direction , he opened iu presence of the Inspector ; whereupon M'Mullen instantly seized them , And these were the letters , not letter , qs the Times erroneonn ) y states , found on Mr O'Connor ' s person , which , were tead hy the Solicitor for the Crown , and subsequently banded to Mr . O'Connor , after the solicitor bod taken the names of tho writers . These letters contained post-office orders ^ all of which , save one for four pounds , were returned , and which four pounds is stilt missing , no doubt belni ? kept by mistake by Mr . M'Mullen . 1

      When Mr . O'Connor appeared before the sittingmagistrate at Bow-street , Mr . Hall , be was asked if he haci anj ^ examination to make , or any confession to reduce to writing ? Mr . O'Connor replied , " That he had no one to examine ; an 4 the only confession he had to make was . tbat it was a very inappropriate reward for the essential services ¦ which he had rendered to the state , by using hia utmost exertion to preserve the peace of the country during the recent outbreaks , and that he was ready to give bail . " Mr . Hall stated , that he thought it would be better that Mr . O'Connor should go to Manchester , and there hew the . chareeB against him . To this Mr . O'Connor replied , " That in his present state of health , he was very much averse to trust himself to the tender mercies of a ' Liberal bench of Manchester magistrates ; ' that be could expect justice from Mr . Hall , but certainly not at the han'is of those who now charge him with all the evil consequences of their own conspiracy and sedition . "

      Mr . Hall did not aay . as repovted in the Times , that the charge against Mr . O Connor vras of a character" very little shott of treason . ' He never onco mentioned the word , however the Times reporter may have used it to serve the base purposes of that paper . He simply said , " that he could n-. t be supposed to know more of the charge than was stated in the warr . mt . as he had not an opportunity of'hearing . * the evidence ; " when Mr . Waddington observed , ' that upon the part of the Crown he had no desire to look for excessive bail , and further pressed upon Mr . O'Connor the advantage of hearing the case at Manchester . " Mr . O'Connor replied , "That it might be an advantage certainly ; but for the last ten days he had been taking' warm baths , and very active medicines , and did not wish

      to gain even tbat advantage , at the risk of his life , as his medical adviser had handed a certificate to Mr . Hall , and was thtn in attendance , to be sworn , if . necessary . " Mr . O'Connor also stated . * ''that forthe lasS ten days he ¦ was incapable of -writing even his private letters , and was ordered not to stoop , therefore , he hoped the Magistrate vreuld throw no obstacle in the way of bail . " Mr . Hall then eain he would require bail to the ; amount of £ 2 000 . —Mr . O'Connor himself , in 41 . 000 ., and two sureties of £ 500 each , to appear at the next general gaol delivery , to be holden in the county of Lancaster . The bail was speedily procured , and Mr . O C t > nor was set at liberty . We trust that the evidence of the medical gentleman , as to the unfitness of the cell in which Mr . O'Connor was confined , will have its duo effect in the proper quarter . It has already produced its effect npon Mr . O'Connor , who , no doubt in consequence of four

      hours' confinement there , had been spitting blood , and otherwise suffering from tho heat and stench of the place . We take this statement from Mr . O Connor ' s own lips ; and having seen him the day before yesterday , aud not ugain till this morning , we do most solemnly declare , that we should have tbouzbt it impossible for ao great a change to be "worked within that time , in the appearance of any individual . Poor Campbell , who was not in a situation to procure the heavy amount of bail required from him as a working man , was conveyed to Manchester by M'Mullen , to udd one " more to the victims of the Corn Law League . His shop is 180 , High Holborn , and we trust tbat the appearance there of the minions of authority will not icire the honest working classes , to whom he has been a true and faithful servant Surely * these nets of oppression must cease ; and the sooner the better , » s there is a point beyond which human endurance will not and ought not to bo . —Evening Star .

      The Observer of Sunday has the following notice of these arrests : — In another column of the Observer will be found an account of the arrest and examination of Mr . Fearjjus O'Connor on a charge of sedition . It will : ilso bu sten that thirteen other Chartists—ten at Manchester , two at Leeds , and on » at another place—have been apprehended . We have obtained some additional particulars respecting these arrests , the accuracy of whrch may be relied on . The sedition with which the partita are charged , is not , as we understand it , * written or sp' -fcn sedition ; they have been apprehended on a charge « . f having , on tho 17 th of August last , conspired toother , " at Manchester , for seditious purposes .
