Northern Star , Thursday , . Oct . 20 , 1842 . J 5 i dzab . Fkiesds , —The hurry-scurry having a i little subsided , I can again look round me and survey . our position . Tis not tee best that might have been , but it is for your to mate the best of it Thia j l ast has been a " bold stroke "; tee boldest and most j s w eep ing blew that h " been aimed at public liberty j since the suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act under I the " strong government" of Castlereagn and Sidmoutn . ! It gives you an earnest of the unchanged character of ,
Tory ism . Ton may learn from it what may be expected from the honesty , t h e j u s t ice , or t he eq ui ty of a " strong I Government , " ¦ whenever the circumstances of the times j may fee such , as to induce them vo venture the j experiment Bold as is their present flight of daring , it is a mere feeler ; preparatory to a swoop infinitely fiercer and more fell , if you but show the disposition which may warrant them in supposing that you will bear it . This is but one part of a grand consphacy and plain determination to suppress entirely the rajht of public meeting ; to stifle and put an end to the expression of opinion ; and to establish hire , in England , a system cf pars despotism and terrorism under the name , though almost without the f jrms , of law .
It is for you to say bow far this conspiracy shall be succeEifnl . It has bo f-ir " cleared its ground" pretty effectually . It haa thrown the iron meshes of the law around almost all your more prominent and trusted champion * at one time . True we may thank the madheaded inconsiderate zeal of some of those champions for affording fixe opportunity : no matter ; the eagerness with -which that opportunity was grasped and the vile use made of it show the asimvs by which the now dominant power is actuated , and demonstrate the sort of stuff you have to deal with . Tis always well to have
i good knowledge of your enemy . Yon now know perfectly the one you have at present to contend with . He ii si ^ ke to the im portance ef the struggle ; he knows tiat it is for life ; he has no jot of generosity ; ne will tits every advantage that is offered to him ; he will prosecute every advantage to the utmost ; be-will follow up th 6 more fiercely as be finds yon te become the ed : « fee b le , or more timid , or more unguarded ; and if you lie down beneath the pressure of Ms blows , or cts up the contest in despair , he will immediately End all your limbs so that nothing but a miracle can restore to you their use .
What say you then ? wm jon suffer the cause to be j lasi for want of union , for w an t of spiri t , for want of j determination , for want of perseverance , for want of j prudence ? All these requisites » ust be now called j itio aetive exercise or you are lost , and will bequeath to j posterity only the heritage of slavery ; and go down to i tot graves with the print of cowardice , folly and in- j cstitcde deeply seared upon your foreheads with the i banding iron of oppression , and written upon your ] iisnbr . onea -with the finger of deserved worn . If in- ' deed you be sen and Englishmen , n ow is the ti m e t o t pove yourselves ! The dungeons are crammed with the choicest spirits of democracy ! Your fettered
laden look to you for help and susfcentation ! Your expatriated brethren lift their shackled arms , and point yon to their desolate homes , their weeping wives , and Tailing children ' . Your own homes , your o wn wi v es , jour own children , and your own hearts second the sppea . ! Tee rampant bands of faction mock your sasery , and watch eagerly for the appearance cf indecision or despondency ! Their treacherous emissaries are ready to whisper in . your ears the lying story of cheap bread , and plentiful employment , or of increased po ^ er by an union with the middle classes , on the condition that you pledge yourselves to use the franchise ,
when acquired , for the prosecution of their purposes ia preference to your own ! Europe and America are anxiously looking on . ' The fate of yeur movement , big as it is with the destiny of nations , is n o w in your oirn haads : Will you esw flinch ? Will you now give back ? Will you becd the knee to the oppressor ? Will you lick the hand that smites yon ? Will yon not r&ther redouble all your energies , and show youi selves invincible to tyranny , and invulnerable to its Bhaf ts ? " Prill you not brave privation , persecution , imprisonment , o r dea t h , rather than , slacken your exertions , or cease your agitation till its just object be attained ? . '
I canno t , will not , for one moment admit the supposition that you will now be found wanting ; that yon viil shrink from filling np the gaps which tyranny has made , or that you will leave those who hive sacrificed all for you to chew the bitter cud of disappointlaent in reflecting on their worse than useless labours . To avoid this , let your energies be all aroused , and the even tenon ? of your way pursued , only with increased diligence . Let youi meetings in all the localities be still holden just as usual , every man and every -woman
making it a point of aolema duty nevei to be absent What though you miss your speakers ! never mind that ; tpe ^ k for yourselvef . You are all educated for it ; every man is eloquent upon Jthe subject of his own ruf-Itrings ; nature keeps a true school of oratory , and her pupils never lack the power to command attention tp then ! arouse ye ; from the hoary headed sire to the lisping child ! Each to his poet ! Let yeur moral cuiht be now marshalled , and your battle-cry be " Justice » -
But remember that it is useless to bring mere courage into such a contest . Yon mnst temper it *} th discretion , if you intend it to be successful . ^ ou must remember that yon have great odds to fight witt . The enemy hare all the trained and marshalled physical force of the whole country at i&eir command . They have also the power of the law , w : h as to its miking and its administration . These * fe their arms of warfare ; while unbounded wealth Sttes them every advantage in the using
« them . Against all this , you can only oppose fctice , united numbers , determination , and prucence . The odds are great ; bat if you bring to iae battle all these qualities the victory is yours j if you fail in one of them yon are undone . The justice ° fjour cause you cannot leave behind jou . The ^^ fflbers by whom our principles are known and revised , must of necessity increase ; for they need ° dj to be known to be received , and our enemies ^ e spreading forth the knowledge of them faster

than we could have done it ourselves . I have ho fear for your determination : —the British bull-dofj is not yet dead . The only matters doubtful are union and prudence . The former is a most important quality , and so far as end and pmrpose is concerned , a perfectly indispensable one for our success : but &s regards means and matters of opinion , it is , though very valuable , too' dearly bought , when at the sacrifice of prudence . Late events have taught me a valuable lesson ; a lesson which I purpose to remember . Never again will I sacrifice my own clear judgment , of what means are best calculated to help on our movement and ensure success , to the
phantom of a union of sentiment . Never again shall the wish to avoid misconstruction and the charge of " denouncing" prevent me from expressing my opinions fuily upon all the conduct of all public men in our own ranks . There are some men who seem naturally warm-hearted , enthusiastic , and sincere , but who are yet short sighted ; and withal so obstinate and so conceitedly self-willed , that it ia scarce possible to hint , however diffidently and respectfully , a disaidence from their opinion , without having the matter magnified at once into a cause for quarrel , and a frothy declamatioH forthwith vented about "denunciation '' and a purpose to "burke " and " crush " the " good men and true . "
We have had seme men of this sort &mongsb us . We have some now ; and they have dose us much harm . Whatever be the amount of their zeal or their sincerity , they are unfit for leaders ; they are better out of the movement than in it ; and the cause would suffer much less by the lack than by the mischief of their services . I have hitherto hoped that experience would teach these men wisdom . I have given them credit for an honest and devoted attachment to the cause , which I considered a &ufficient cover for some faults of judgment . I have therefore dealt tenderly with ihem . I have been more fearful of controverting their opinions and proceedings than perhaps I ought to have been , lest in their schoolboy petulance they might again revive the cry of " denunciation " and "leave the movement . " When I have
found myself compelled—as in one or two cases—to speak out , I have done so with the utmost caution , lest I might hurt the cause by driving fram it an honest advocate . I now sea my error . I have been to some extent wanting in that same quality of firmness which I now find so necessary to inculcate upon you . I will retrieve this error . Never again , if I know it , shall one man be unsuspectingly led inte a mare , because of my unwillingness to be denounced as a denouncer , or to introduce disagreement of opinion . Where mes are all honest , temperate and gentlemanly discussion does no harm : it bnt elicits truth . It is only the fool or the knave who is impatient of contradiction ; and of these the former is little more trustworthy than the latter .
I shall have a good deal to say upon matters connected with the trap in which so many of the Chartist body have been caught , and by which so large an amonut of privation and misery , and so imminent a danger to our cause , has been produced . Bat the time is not now . Let U 3 have the trials over . Till then let the people remember that the past can ' t be helped , and the done can ' t be undone . Let them look to our present position , and make even the onslaught of the enemy a means of triumph . They may do this : it needs but gallantry and prudesce now , and our former losses may be all turned to our advantage .
Stick to the organization ; abide by the old ship of Chartism ; it is the only sound and safe one , after all . Beware of the Sturgites ; and beware of every man who would counsel the least adhesion of the working people to that rotten party . No such man is your friend , whatever be his pretensions , or however you may have used to deem him . I warn you solemnly that the Sturge men as a a party , and the Free Trade men as a party , are identical . They are parts of the same whole . And their only purpose te to use you for their ends , and then plunge yoa in the mire , while they laugh as they tread you down . I warn you now ,
that ' . all savage and relentless as the Tories are , these seeming patriots are worse . I give you this emphatic warning because I know that their emissaries are even now busy , seeking to turn what they suppose to be our disaster to their own advantage . Now , on the score of prudence , do not let your selfish desire for their services induce you to press the fine fellows , my " brother conspirators , " who are committed for trial in March , into unsafe positions . Remember that they are only out on bail for " good behaviour , "—a most rascally vague term , which mea . n 3 any thing the villains choose to make it mean . When my bail bonds were perfected , I asked the Clerk of the Crown what was
meant by . " good behaviour . He replied , " That , I shall not attempt to define , Mr . Hill ; for , in fact , I don ' t know what it means . " Take then your work for a time into your own hands ; but see that it be done . Imitate the spirit , the language and the conduct of the brave metropolitan delegates . Read their address in the Star of the 8 : h inst ., which I kave read to-day for the first time , and imbibe its spirit . Above all things , see that the t poor fellows who are not yet bailed , be so , as soon as may be . Think when you lie down at night upon the cold hard bed of your brave honest advocates ;; and of the necessity that there is for them to be looking after the interests
of their several families as well as working again in the cause . And see that their families be cared for . They have a right to expect it from you . Read Campbell ' s letter , and consider the case of poor JIasset . It is disgraceful to the Chartist name . There are other instances not less so . What has Leeds done for Mr . T . B . Smith and his family ! Just nothing at all . And I . fear that there are other places equally deserving of censure . This is not the way to have victims ready to offer ap themselves again . How different is the noble conduct of the men of Manchester , who ,
while the brave fellows were all confined in the lockups there , for the Epace of more than a week , supplied them all with present necessaries in abundance , and who have since left no stone unturned to procure and enforce the reception of bail , not only for their own men , but as far as possible for others also . This is precisely what they ought to have done , and what every other locality ought to do . You must s if ' you intend to deserve the name and liberties of Englishmen , put forth your energies , and quit yourselves like men . Stir ! Stir ! Do your own work ; open your own eyes ; put forth your own arms ; help your own selves ; and then God will help yon too .
In the free struggle of right against might , for the establishment of peace , righteousness , and honesty in . all our public institutions , lam , Yeur fellow-labourer , and Your faithful friend and servant , William Hill .

" Saturday , October 15 th , was the day appointed for the consecration of St . Mary ' s Church , Wolverbampton , on which occasion tbe Bishop of Hereford was to perform the ceremony . The day arrived , and brought with it the Bishop , —a personage bo seldom seen in provincial towns , that 'thousands ro , out of curiosity , to look at him . I , amongst the re ? t , 8 ir , thought that I should like to see and bear tbe BLthop , and , as soon as I could make it convenient , proceeded to tbe Church , for that purpose . When I arrived at tbe Church the service was commenced , and I accordingly opened the door as gently as I could , and was about to step inside , when I was accosted by a raw lobBter , alias a policeman , wita You cannot go in . ' I asked why ? and he replied , ' Oh 1 we do not allow any
one to go in . " You do not allow any one to go in , ' I said ; ' but the laws of the Church of England do , and therefore I wish to go in . ' ' Now , you bad better be ruled by me , and go about your business , ' he replied , ' for you cvnnot sit down if you go in . ' Just at this moment another raw lobs t er cam e up , and , tapping me with his cane , s aid , ' come , come , come , yon cannot be let in ; but if you will walk across the road , they will give you some beef and bread ; ' and with this insult I was turned out of the churchyard , while one of them stood at the gate to prevent my again entering . I stood for Borne time without the gate , while the conduct of the policeman called forth the indignation of many people . I had not stood here long before a young gentleman came np , and , after speaking t o the police m a n , was allowed to enter the Church , This surprised me , for I had been
told the Church was full , and no one allowed to go in ; and I began to think what prompted them to allow the young gentleman to go into tbe Church , and to keep me standing at the gate . I was in my working dress , and the gentleman had a better coat on than I had , —perhaps they thought his soul was of more value than mine ; er that he could give them a shilling , and I only a penny .

AFTER writing the article which appears under this head , in reference to the nomination of Mr . Morling , but too late for its withdrawal , my attention was drawn by the sub-Editor to the fact , that that article had been written under a misapprehension . I was not aware of the publication , during my sojourn in the New Bailey prison , of
an address from the temporary Executive appointed by the London men , calling upon the people to elect a temporary Executivenot to supersede but to aid the present Executive , by acting in their places until they shall be at liberty to resume them , if that be between now and March . This , of course , alters the complexion of the whole matter , and makes void and pointless all those observations in the article which are
levelled at the supposition of a purpose to supplant tbe present Executive ; a purpose which I doubt not Mr . MQRLING and his friends would regard with as much indignation as I did . I wrote on the supposition that these parties had , of their own accord , thought fit to take for granted that a new permanent Executive must be elected because the other had been pounced upon . My excuse for the misapprehension must be found in the fact , that the " worry "
attendant upon my arrest , imprisonment , and attendance at the Court in Liverpool occupied every moment of my time from the arrest until last Thursday—the day we go to press ; that I was then in a very ill state of health , having been harassed by attending in Court three whole days , and then travelling all night ; and that this , altogether , prevented me from being accurately acquainted with the contents of the two last -numbers of the NORTHERN Star .
Usually I see everything that goes into the paper , before it does go-in . On this occasion the address in question , and the nominations consequent upon it , I had never seen at all , and hence the misapprehension on my mind . I wrote warmly , because I felt warmly . I thought injustice was being done to the Executive ; and I hate to see injustice done to any body . I hope this explanation will show that I had no intention by that article to do injustice to any body .
I may just observe , in . reference to the election , that I think it a perfectly unnecessary one . My opinion is , that the good men appointed by the Metropolitan Delegate Committee are , under the circumstances , the men most fit to act as the Executive pro tern . Their prompt and gratuitous efforts for the cause show them to be men of patriotism and decision , and their appointment by the Metropolitan Delegate Committee is a proof that they are men in whom confidence may be and is reposed ; and the very fact of their calling for this election is a . proof that the ^ are men not likely to abuse the
people ' s confidence . ^ hey cal l ior the election because they feel the delicacy and the forced irregularity of their position , and they wish the fair principles of pure democracy to be acted on in Our movement , at least as nearly and as fully as circumstances will permit . The feeling does honour to them ; and I think the people will evince neither gratitude nor good taste if they elect other men . Of course , the people will use their own judgment ; but I presume that I have a right to an individual opinion , and to the expression of it . This is my opinion ; and I give it without any purpose either to " dictate" or " denounce . " William Hill .

Glossop , Saturday . —Within tbe last few days . t wo investigations have been en * red into , in tbe counties of Chester and Derby , in reference to the horrible murder of a man named James fcshaw , a shoemaker , aged forty-two , who for several years past bad lived in the township of Charlesworth , which Is situated on the borders of Derbyshire ami Cheshire . The country in which the murder wa « i perpetrated is peculiarly wild and romantic , hills and valleys stretching out for miles . The actual spot where the deed was done , is situated on tbe turnpike road , leading from Manchester to Sheffield , through Hyde , Mottr a m , Glossop , ( an extensive estate of the Duke of Norfolk ) , and the Derbyshire and Yorkshire moors . It is not far distant from the great tunnel , aow in the course of erection at Woodbead and Mottram , as part of tbe Sheffield and Manchester railway .
Tbe particulars of the frightful deed are as follow : — On Saturday evening , near twelve o ' clock , Shaw , accompanied by his wife , Hannah Shaw , left the Angel Inn , at Mottram , in company with a man named James Ford , who bad for some time been employed on the railway as a labourer . It would appear that the party had been drinking together at the Aucel , and that Shaw was advanced in liquor . When they had reached a solitary part of the toad , called Braddock ' s Coal-pit , abimta mile distant from Mot'ram , Ford began to tei . z-f Mrs . Shaw , and Uok IibeitieB with her , -which so dispic-used her , that she iiidigosr . tly resented bia conduct . They all threii proceeded onward , and after walking about about a hundred yards farther . Ford renewed his misconduct towards Mr * Shaw , when her husband ' s spirit-was rnnstd , and he quarrelled with Ford ; in
consequence Ford was very abusive , and drew forth a handkerchief , in which he tied a stone , and with the heavy sling be strnck Sbaw a violent blow on the head , and felled him to the ground . Whilst down Ford cod tinned to beat him with the filing until he became quite insensible . During this dreadful c onflict Sha w ' s wife , alarmed at the situation of her husband , repeatedly called out " murder , " bub tbe loneliness of the place , and the lateness of the hour , it being past midnight , rendered it doubtful whether assistance could be obtained . Shaw lay stretched on the earth in a stupor , from the loss of blood ; and whilst in this helpless state Ford seized her ( Shaw ) , and forced her through a gate into an adjoinicg field .
into which he dragged her to the distance of fifty yards , where he perpetrated a violent outrage on her person Before he committed the offence he struck her several timts , rendering her insensible . After this Becond crime had been committed , be allowed the poor woman to quit the field , and with difficulty she reached the turnpike-road , along which she walked till she reached her own dwelling , believing that she had left her husband behind her murdered . To her great joy , however , she found that her husband had crawled home , bat was in a deplorable state , and apparently dying . Her neighbours were informed of what had occurred , and Mr . Smith , surgeo n , of Charlesworth , was immediately sent for ; and on examination of both patties pronounced them to be in great danger .
Information cf the diabolical affair having been communicated to Mr . Little , the Special High Constable at Hyde , be at once adopted means for the apprehension of tbe offender . After an active search be succeeded in capturing him , and on Wednesday he was taken before John Su'ebottom , Esq ., magistrate , who , after hearing the evidence in the caie , eomtuitted the

prisoner for trial at Chester Assizes , on the double charge of cutting and maiming , and rape . After the committal of Ford to prison , Shaw grew daily worse , and on Saturday morning death put an end to his sufferings ; . his wife , at the time of bis death , D 3 ing hourly expected to expire . On Monday , an inquest was held on the body of Shaw , at the George aod Dragon public-house , in Charlesworth , before Thomas Manders , Esq ., one of the coroners for the High Peak Division of Derbyshire , and a respectable jury . The inquiry was very extended , continuing for upwards of seven hours , when the jury returned a verdict against Ford of Wilful Murder .
The murder has caused great consternation in the densely populated district in which it took place . Shaw was a native of Charlesworth , and died in the house in which he was born . He had no family . He had always borne a respectable character , and was reported ah honest and industrious man . Ford is 24 years of age , is by trade a carpenter , and native of Liscard , County of Waterford . ' He Is a powerful athletic man . The principal witness in the case is Hannah Shaw , t he w ife , with about a dczan others , w ho giv e strong testimony . One of them , a resident of the neighbourhood , was near to the fatal spot during the whole of the tragedy , but , apprehensive of violence from Ford , durst not venture from his hiding place to render assistance . .

NORTHLEACH HOUSE OF CORRECTION . ( FROM THE MORNING CHRONICLE . ) The death of Charles Beale is only another victim , added to the many whose days have either been shortened , or constitution shattered and broken , fro m the effects of the " starving syBt « m" which has for a length of time been adopted within the walls of this damp and dreary dungeon . A long residence at Cheltenham , and for some time a regular attendance given at the public office of that town , in the discharge of a public duty , have afforded me ample epportnnities of witnessing the unfortunate prisoners , and ascertaining their state of health , looks , and appearances , both before and after their commitment to Northleach .
This town is a distance of fourteen miles frem Cheltenha m , on the London and Oxford road , and is not a little remarkable for its ornamental appendages ; the new uuion workhouse being built at one extremity , whilst the house of correction graces the entrance from Cheltenham , the site of which is remarkably low itnd damp , the building standing in the hollow of a field adjoining the London toad , and from its situation I am not the least surprised to find , from the statement at tbe inquest held on the unfortunate man , C ha r les B eale . that , " in rainy weather the water often runs down the interior of tfce -walls . " I am UiOTOUghty convinced from its locality , and more particularly in the winter , the interior of the prison must not only be unwholesome , but exceedingly damp .
It is to Northleach House of Correction that the Cheltenham Magistrates commit all prisoners who have the misfortune to be summarily convicted before tbe Bench ; such as reputed thieves , offenders against the vagrantI ; iwe , poachers , disorderlies , parochial defaulters , and , indeed , delinquents of every description , whose caBes are not sent to the sessions , are invariably committed In terms varying from seven days to three months to hard labour at Northleach . All prisoners so committed , of whatever age or sex , are compelled to walk a distance of fourteen miles , handcuffed between two policemen , without the slightest refreshrnentallowed on the road . The toad from Cheltenham is , as I have already st a t ed , along fourteen miles extremely hilly , and in the winter season bleak , cold , and dreary . I have known even cripples , and fe m ales enceinte , bmng
compelled to walk this distance in the very depth of winter , and when the snow has been thick on the ground ; no conveyance bring allowed either by the committing magistrate or the . county . I recollect the case of one poor man , w hos e n ame has a t this moment escaped my recollection , but he was committed by Thomas Kenney , Esq . He was at the time in a miserable starving condition , and more fitted for the inmate of an infirmary than a dungeon similar to that of Northleach . Ho was charged with beintj found concealed in the stables of the George Inn , at Cheltenham , and with BtnUn ; the ostler ' s sapper from the corn bin . When brought before Mr . Kenney he was a truly pitiable object ; exhibited a dreadful pair of black eyes ; hia countenance frightfully disfigured and swollen from the effects
of a thrashing he received from the ostler , or some person connected with the yard ; he was so completely discolouied from the beating he had received , that ii induced the magistrates to ask how he came in that dreadful state . He was committed to Northleach prison , and hard labour for one month , but before he had b « en many days in gaol , death released him from his sufferings . He complained of being starved and want of proper nourishment , and there . can be no doubt but he sunk under the low dietary of the prison . This poor fellow was compelled , in the most inclement weather , to walk in his weak state the whole of this dreary distance , without the slightest refreshment being given him on tbe road . Trie man , on leaving the court , complained of being dreadfully ill , and observed , that " be should never come out alive . "
The prisoners who have experienced the misfortune to become inmates of this gloomy and d-. imp dungeon have one and all declared , on tbeir liberation , that the dietary allowed is barely sufficient to keep body and sonl together , and have complained of being quite starved , overworked , and being forced to sleep in dump cells . I am familiar also with another case—a mau of the name of Major , a cabinet-maker , who was committed by the Cheltenham bench for want of sureties . He was in perfect health when he went to prison , but when liberated wrs a perfect skeleton . In a letter to his friends , while in confinement , he Bays , ' Tuis is the most hoirible damp prison in England ; tho prisoners are starved to death , not being allowed sufficient rations . I have got » severe rheumatism from being
placed in a damp cell . " When this person was at length liberated , he declared his constitution was impaired and ruined , and that he was totally unfit for work . I could multiply many instances of a similar charac t er , and confirm the statements relative to tbe treatment of the prisoners at Northleach , with wh-ch the public have lately been made acquainted . The visiting justxes of Gloucestershire are rather unfortunate in their prison discipline ; for I believe it will be found / on inquiry , that th 9 prison at Northleach is not the only ill-regulated place of confinement under their jurisdiction . The House of Cotrectipn at Little Dean , in t he Fores t of Dea n , may perhaps furnish another illustration of tbe doinga at Northleach . At all events , it is acknowledged , even by the magistrates themselves , to be a miserable hole .

THE MODEL PRISON AT PENTONVrLLE . TO THE EDITOR OP THE MORNING CHRONICLE . Sir , —I w . us enabled a few days ago , by your kindur-s , to lay before the public the evidence of an American pLysician upon solitary confinement , who found in t he Pe n i t e n tiar y of P hilad e lphia n o fewer th a n twenty-six lunatics ; and I also showed that the Penitentiary of Millbank furnished the Lunatic Asylum at Hanwell -with no inconsiderable number of patients . It wonld indeed , be desirable that some memfcar should move for a return of all the persona' nBmes driven mad in the Penitentiary ; though , even if it were granted , it must be incorrect , for no return could be made of those idiots partly demented who range tho country , and have been lost sight of since their dismissal .
My object , howe v er , at present is to direct attention to the enactments of a bill ( 5 Victoria ) for establishing the model prison at Pentonville . Some of these are of incredible severity , but the twenty-third clause contemplates , with horrid foresight , the generation of ruadness , and it directs that when a prisoner shall be reported insane to tho Secretary of State , it shall be lawful for the Secretary to remove him to some lunatic asylum , and he shall remain in it till of sound mind . Therj , if his sentence be not expired , he shall be conveyed a second time to Penionville , and there undergo the remainder of it—the Secretary eending his warrant to the keeper of the mad-house for that purpose . No provision is made for the treatment of those incurably insane , n or any r emi ss io n of punishment in favour of those who had been already driven to madness . Now , I challenge tbe annals of the Inquisition to produce an instance of more deliberate
cruelty than this ; search its records in Valencia , and Madrid , and read all that F . orente has written , for a greater act of rigour than this Ytn first drive a prisoner mad by your treatment , you rsstere his reason , and you a second time bring him to the stake . Again , what more inhuman , what more likely , to bring on insanity , than a return to the same cells , the same diet and discipline , the same exhortations from the same zealous chaplain , as those that first engendered the mental malady ? What unspeakable horror must seize the convalescent who a second time finds himself on the same spot , beset by the same instruments , under which he first felt his reason stagger . Is not such a shock capable of producing incurable mania ? Wonld not humanity dictate the liberation of any person who had once be ? n subjected to an experiment that deprived him for a season of bis reason , and which perhaps shook its throne for ever ?
Did not Sir Robert Peel , in 1824 , when Home Secretary , dismiss the whole body of prisoners in the Penitentiary , when a dreadfnl disease bad broken out among them , b y low diet , deeming , justly deeming , that tbeir sufferings had made ample compensation for their crimes ; and shall dementia , brought on by the prison discipline , be treated with less mercy ? The advocates for that treatment will , no doubt , say that tbeir surgeon ia to watch the first symptoms of this malady in tbe patient ; but tbe officer baa , perh aps , in his charge 800 prisoners ; and , be he ever so sealons , can he discern the first dawn of this subtle malady ; successfully aeizt what Johnson called , " the variable weather of the mind , the flying vapours of incipient madness ? " May not the affliction come on in a day , an boor ; may not the penitent be lunatic ere tbe overbusied Secretary has leisure to read the report , and direct his transferrence to Hanwell ? Thesnrgeon ef the Penitentiary possessed not tbe alchemy , for many of bis patients are the tenanU of Hanwell at thia moment . . . '
I proceed to the 21 st clause , which to so framed as to secure in the most absolute seclusion the -whole process , till tbe catastrophe—neither the wife , no . r the parent , nor the child , not the clergyman , save the prison chaplain , admitted—no provision for the Catholic nor J > ls
