LETTER FROM MR . WM . HICK , KORTHEEN STAR OFFICE , LEEDS . < Northern Star Office , Leeds , March 17 th , 1842 . CC / Tentlemen , —You will oblige by forwarding , afc \ J your earliest oonvenienoe , the same quantity of PARR'S LIFE PILLS as last sent . While I am writing I cannot refrain from ¦ communicating ; tho flattering intelligence of the groat good your pills are doing in Leeds and its neighbourhood . It ia clearly a great error to find fault with a medicine merely because it is a patent one ; and more especially eiace its use has contributed so largely to the pubUtj health . The fact is , however , predjudice is fast giving way , as it always must where the pills are tried . A few cases in point may serve to confirm and illustrate what I have asserted . " A young female came into the shop to-day fora box , who stated that they had done her immense good . She had been troubled with a hoarseness so bad that no one could hear her speak ; but having taken a few boxes of PARR'S LIFE PILLS , she was completely restored , as was evident by the way she spoke . " Very many cases of extraordinary cures have ocourred among the aged workpeople , both male and female . In © ne mill , an aged couple , enfeebled by disease and debilitated by premature old age , had become almost past work ; they were persuaded to try a few boxes of PARR'S LIFE PILLS , and in a week were restored and strengthened that they could pursue their employment with pleasure and profit ; so muchio , that from being unable to WOTS at their calling more than two days in the week , and this with great physical difficulty and languor , they ean now not only do a full week ' s work , but overhours besides . Bad as trade is here , the old people being favourites with the mill owner , are enabled to get as much employment as they can do , which has excited the envy of those younger persons who had been employed in their absence ; and it is a laughable fact , that Parr s Pills come in for a share ef their rancour . The old people continue to take the pills regularly in email quantities , and find them as necessary to their health and prosperity as their daily food . "The next and last case which I shall mention at this time , is one of a most extraordinary nature . I have not seen the individual myselt , but I shall give you the fact as I have received it from his employer , and from Mr . J . Hobson , who has frequently seen him since his convalesence . The man is a working mechanic and had spent about thirty pounds bus year on the doctor , in going to the Isle of Man and other places , for the benefit of his health , but to no purpose . His food had consisted for a long time of nothing but rice milk , the stomach refusing to take anything stronger . His body was greatly emaciated and his temporal prospects clouded ; with a mind filled with melancholy forebodings for the future , ho returned to his friends afc Leeds , where he was told by his medical adviser that should he be restored a little , his disorder would have its periodical return ; but being advised to try PARR'S LIFE PILLS , he bought a few boxes , which have completely removed his disease , and enabled him to return to his work , where he was seen a few days ago by Mr * Hobson , ( it being dinner hour ) eating beef-steaka with great gusto ; and to whom he recited with pleasure and gratitude the cause of his then healthy condition , together wieh a long history of his past affliction M Should the above three cases of cures be worthy of your notice , you are at perfect liberty to make what use of them you think proper . I am , Gentlemen , yours , respectfully , " WILLIAM HICK . "To Messrs . T . Roberts and Co ., 9 , Crane Court Fleet-street , London . " MIBACULOUS CUKE FBOM THE USE OF PABft ' S LIPB PILLS . Copy of a Letter just received by the Proprietors from Mr . Wm . Moat , 3 , Cobbett-street , Shaw ' s Brow , Salford . " To the Proprietors of Parr's Life Pills . " Gentlemen , —I have the utmost pleasure in forwarding you this my own case of cure , effected solely by the persevering use of your Parr ' s Lifb Pills . Before having recourse to them , I had been for upwards of five years afflicted with a most distressing malady , which the different medical men who attended me all pronounced to be a serious ease of by drocele ( or dropsy of the scrotum } , and declared there was no other chance of either relief or cure than undergoing a surgical operation . I was thus driven almost to despair ; and consulted the treatise written by Sir Astley Cooper , wherein he states that the operation is generally attended with considerable danger . I therefore determined not to risk so painful and uncertain an experiment , but rather chose to leave the result to nature and Providence . Fortunately , I heard of the great fame of Pabk's Life Pills , and resolved to give them a fair trial . I consequently took them for some time without perceiving any benefit , but still kept persevering ; and I have now taken twelve boxes , and to my great joy I am perfectly well , the dropsy is entirely removed , together with a scorbutic affection , which I had been much troubled with since my return from India in 1827 ; and now there is not a vestige of disease left in my whole system , as I am now in better health and spirits than I have been for fourteen yearn . I feel certain you would hate accounts of far more cures , if people would persevere in the use of the pills a proper length of time , as I have done . I give you my heartfelt thanks , and authority to publish this letter , and will gladly answer any applications either personally or by letter , and remain your grateful and obliged servant . ( Signed ) " W . MOAT . ** Witness—John Hough , Cheadle , carrier . u Manchester , Feb . 7 , 1842 . » FROM MR . HEATON , BOOKSELLER , LEEDS . II To the Proprietors of Parr ' s Life Pills . n Gentlemen , —I am happy to inform you that we are daily hearing accounts of the good effects of Parr ' s Lifb Pills ; to enumerate the cases world be a task too formidable for me , and which has prevented my writing to inform you before , as I can hardly tell where to begin . One mansaid he wanted a box of Life Pills for Life Pills they were to him they had done him * o much good , in relieving him of an obstinate cough and asthma . "Another said they were worth their weight in gold ! as he was not like the same man since he had taken them . " Another said his wife had had a bad leg for years , but after taking one small box , which was recommended by his Class Leader , her leg was much better , and when she had taken the second box , is was quite as well as the other . "A very respectable female said her husband had been afflicted above two years , and had tried many things , but since he had taken Parr ' s Life Pills he was quite a new man . "You will please send immediately , by Deacon ' s waggon , 36 dozen boxes at La . Ud ., and 6 dozen at 2 s . 3 d .

THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYR 1 ACUM . Is a gentle stimulant and renovator of the impaired functions of life , laud is exclusively directed- to the cure of the Generative System , whether constitutional or acquired , loss of sexual power , and debility arising from Syphilitic disease ; and is calculated to afford decided relief to those who , by early indulgence * in solitary habits , have weakened the powers of their system , and fallen into a state of ohronio debility , by which the constitution is left in a deplorable state , and that nervous mentality kept up which places tbe individual in a state of anxiety for the remainder of life . The consequences arising from this dangerous Sractice . are not ' confined to its pure physical result , ut branch to moral ones ; leading the excited deviating mind into a fertile field of seducive error ,- ^ into a gradual butjtotal degradation of manhood—into a pernicious application of these inherent rights which nature wisely instituted for the preservation of her species ; bringing on premature decripitude , and all the habitudes of old age : —such a one carries with him tbe form and aspect of other men , but without the vigour and energy of that season which his early youth bade him hope to attain . How many men cease to be ( men , or , at least , cease to enjoy manhood at thirty ! How many at eighteen receive the impression of the seeds of Syphilitic disease itself Hhe consequences of which travel out of the ordinary track of { bodily ailment , covering the frame with disgusting evidence of its ruthless nature , and impregnating the { wholesome stream of life with mortal poison ; conveying into families the seeds of disunion and unhappiness ; undermining domestic harmony ; and striking at the very soul of human intercourse . j The fearfully abused powers of the humane Generative System require the most cautious preservation ; and the debility | bnd disease resulting from early indiscretion demand , for the cure of those dreadful evils , that such medicine should be employed that is most certain to bje successful . It is for these , cases Messrs . Perry and Co ., particularly designed their CORDIAL BAllM OF SYRIACUM which is intended to relieve those persons , who , by an immoderate indulgence of their passions , have ruined their constitutions , or in their way to the consummation of that deplorable state , are affected with any of those previous symptoms that betray its approach , as the ] various affections of the nervous system , obstinate jgleets , excesses , irregularity , obstructions of certain evacuations , weakness , total impotency , barrenness , &o . As nothing can be better adapted to help and nourish the constitution , so there is nothing more generally acknowledged to be peculiarly efficacious in all inward waitings , loss of appetite , indigestion , depression of spirits , trembling or shaking of the hands or limbs , obstinate coughs , shortness of breath , or consumptive habits . It possesses wonderful efficacy in all eases of syphilis , fits , head-ache , weakness , heaviness , and lowuess of spirits , dimness * of sight , confused thoughts , wandering of the mind , vapours , and melancholy ; and all kinds of hysterio complaints are gradually removed by ita use . And even where the disease of Sterility appears to have taken the firmest hold of the female constitution , the softening tonic qualities of the Cordial Balm of Syriacum will warmjand purify the blood and juices , increase the animal spirits , invigorate and revive the whole animal machine , and remove the usual impediment to maturity . This medicine is particularly recommended to be taken before persons enter into the Matrimonial State , lest in the event of procreation occurring , the innocent offspring ; should bear enstamped upon it the physical characters derivable from parental debility , or evil eruptions jof a malignant tendency , that are most assuredly introduced by the same neglect and imprudence . 1 1 Sold in Bottles , * price 11 s . each , or the quantity of four in one Family bottle for 33 s ., by which one 11 s bottle is saved .

They have effected the most surprising cures , not only in recent and severe cases , but when salivation and all C j ther means have failed ; and are of the utmost importance to those afflicted with Scorbutic Affection ' s , Eruptions on any part of the body , ^ Uicerationsj' Scrofulous or Venereal Taint being justly calculated to cleanse the blood from all foulness , counteract every morbid affeotion , and restore weak and emaciated constitutions t » pristine health and vigour . It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall victims to this horrid disease , owing to the unskilfulness « f illiterate men > who by the use of that deadly poison , mercury , ram the constitution , causing ulceratipns , blotohes on the head , face , and body , dimness of sight , noise in tbe | ears , deafness , obstinate gleets , nodes on the shin bones , ulcerated sore throat , diseased nose , with nocturnal pains in the head and limbs , till at length a general debility of the constitution ensues , and a melancholy death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings .

" The various forms of bodily and mental weakness incapacity , suffering and disease , faithfully delineated in this cautiously written and practical work , are almost unknown , generally misunderstood , and treated upon principles correspondingly erroneous and superficial , by the present race of medical practitioners . Hence the necessity for the publication of a timely safeguard , a silent yet friendly monitor , or , whera debility has made threatening inroads , the means of escape and the certainty of restoration . The evils to which the book adverts are extensive and identical in their secret ynd hidden origin , and there are none to whom , as Parents . Guardians , Heads of Families , and especially of public Schools , is confided the care of young people , who ought to remain for a moment devoid of that information and those salutary cautions this work is intended to convey . Not only are tbe most delicate farms of generative debility neglected by the family physician , bnt they require for their safe management the exclusive study of a life entirely abstracted from the routine of general practice , and ( as in other departments of the profession ) attentively concentrated in the daily and long continued observation requisite for the correct treatment of sexual infirmities . " If we consider the topics upon either in a moral or sooial view , we find the interests and welfare of mankind seriously involved . The effects of licentious , indiscriminate and secret indulgence in certain practices ] are described with an accuracy and force which display at once profound reflection and extensive practical experience . "—The PlaneU " The best of all friends is the Professional Friend and in no shape can he be consulted with greater safety and secrecy than in " Lucas on Manly Vigour . " The initiation into vicious indulgenceits progress—its results in both sexes , are given with faithful , but alas I for human nature , with afflicting truth . However , the Authors have not exposed the evil without affording a . remedy . It shows how u Matu . y Viqour" temporarily impaired , and mental and physical emasculation , produced by uncontrolled indulgence of the passions , can be restored ; how the sufferer , who has pined in anguish from the consequences of early indiscretion—afraid almost to encounter his fellow man , can regain the vigour ot health and moral courage * The work is written in a concise and perspicuous style , displaying how often fond parents aredeceived by the outward physical appearance of their youthful offspring ; how theattenuationofthe frame , palpitationoftho heart , derangement of the nervous system , cough , indigestion , and a train of symptoms indicative of consumption or general decay , are often ascribed to wrong causes ; and instead of being the natural results of congeuital debility or disease , are the consequences of an alluring and pernicious practice , alike destructive to the mind and body . " —Bell ' s New Weekly Messenger . " Although a newspaper is not the ordinary channel for the expression of opinion upon the merits of a medical work , this remark is open to exception in any instance where the public , and not the isolated and exclusive members of the profession , are the parties addressed . Upon that which is directed to men indiscriminately , the world will form its own opinion , and will demand that medical works for popular study should be devoid of that mysterious technicality in which the science of medicine has hitherto shrouded its own ignorance . The work before us treats of subjects we believe generally , yet very strangely , negleoted by the medical attendant , and requiring doubtlessly ( as in operative midwifery aud the surgery of the eye ) an entire devotedness to a deeply important branch of study . The tone of this book is highly moral , and it abounds in wellwrittfcn , harrowing , yet correct displays of the suffering consequent upon unbridled sensualism . No human being can be the worse for its perusal ; to multitudes it must prove a warning beacon , a welltold appeal to reason , a permanent blessing . It h written in a clear intelligible style , and is evidently the production of a mind long aad practically conversaiit with tbe diseases ot the most delicato division of the human organization .

Those who feel interested will find a fall account of the plan in the ¦ CbrisStai Advocate lor November . Three of tha classes
namely , the Reading , Grammar , and" Scientific Ciasa , are in full -working order , and the Composition Class , Tfo . l , is just ibout to be started- The Scientific Class has now been existent for nearly six months , and the -wholB of the regular lectures have be « n delivered upon the iindred sciences of Anatomy and Physiology . They izave been -delivered to a large and attentive class , ao-¦ companied by their Mends , and the correct answers -elicited at the fortnightly examinations prove the amount -of proficiency attained . Since the commencement of this course we have also had occasional lectures on the Monday evenings , on Chemistry , io . " 34 r . J . Brown condnded his address by appealing to the audience if the advance -which had thus been attained was not sufficient to encourage the members to go on , not only in their own sphere but also in endeavouring to indaoe the foundation ef such institutions in other places .
After a -walk throngh the gardens , on retiring to the bower * , Mi . Daniel Johnston was called upon to Epeak to ihesentimaat of " the dntSea we owe to -one another . " His speech was long and animated . He spoke of tha duties which the members owed to one another—of the propriety and advantages -which -would result from their becoming bett * r acquainted with each other , learning their respective residences , so as to visit in sickness and emergencies . Be then went over the rules of the academy , and showed that as they had all one common object in view , to , the spread of the Gospel , that they should begin at home . "We know" said he , *• the duties of earthly relatives , of parents and child , of brother and sister j and are at no loss to discover derelictions in those . Now the duties which the-membera of this academy owe to one another , are precisely She same ; and until " we leel an interest in each other ' s personal welfare j until we become knit together as a
band of brothers , our efforts will be comparatively fruitless . Instruction may be derived , and a lesson learned even from She heathen . It was the custom , -when a recruit joined the Soman army for him to choose a mate . In dasger they defended one another , in peace theyasdsted ; Trhen one was wounded , he was sot left te be trampled under foot regardleasly ; his mate waa there - far they fought aide by side , jmfniMirg aid encouraging one another . "We are soldiers of the cross ; and alihouzh the sword and spear ol the earthly warrior areas foreign to our-weapons as adds to alkalies , still , ' I say , we may learn auseful lesson from this amity of purpose in the prosecuting of a moral cmsade . " Mr . J . centinoed to show that the training thus effected sight fee uzsTnlly applied to the furtherance of the beneficial project la which the members might be af tervsxds engaged ; and dilated at some length upon the duties which theseadesiy owe tothe worldst Isrge .
Mr . J . PokkesT next addressed the meeting on the power and goodness of God as displayed in the works of creation . Ur _ Chairman — -The sentiment pnt into my band is One Of Such boundless TnnjmTfinfa that the mind " of man cannot fully comprehend it Even the xasghiy po-aex ofaKewton , that . paragon of the human mind could sot fathom half its depth , or reach to half its height ; how much less ay feeble powers , -which , when compared with many of my -worthy and intelligent brethren present , appear but as a spark in the furnace .

The company having aeain admired the beautiful garden , the Cbairmaa callea upoaMr . W . Govanto speak to the sentiment of liberty . j He rose and said : The sentiment -which I have been appointed to speak to thiB evening jis Liberty . A mighty and magnificent subject for the ; orator to dilate on . One that the eloquence of a Cicero-would fee unable to do it that justice which It deserves t or peurtray the blessings that -would accrue to a people through ittherefore one by far too gigantic for me to do anything like justice to . As there are various definitions of this subject , for the sake of order 2 shall « oufine myself exclusively to civil liberty , by -which I beg to bB understood , the right of every man having a Voice in making those laws which he is bound to-ebey . -The happiness ,
prosperity , sad contentment of a satkni depend almost entirely Bptm the liberty "Which itepeojlai possess . This m « y be fully iHustrited by out ttm « iuntry . ' A l&ad blessed with all that can be conducrse to the happiness and coffifort of tbe people ; possesang natural advantages uHequalled-fcy any other satiom in the worlds yet ¦ witfeoBt liberty , " what are all these felesslngB ? They are all monopc £ ized and claimed by ] the drones of society j while the poor hard icorklng bees , who alone produce all 'the 'wealth of our > country , are robbed of their share , and sunk in slavery , misery , and wretcbea ¦ Dees . It has been often said that there is nacre liberty eirjoyed in Sritain than in -say other naiioa in the world . ThiB to a certain ^ extent I admit There la a j liberty agaiest -which I as an individual , and a great
portion of fee working daeses ef thiB conatry , complain ; that is , ¦* & * liberty -which the ariBtoc » cy have , or rather -the liberty which they take—of governing us against-orr will ; of passing laws without our consent ; of creating swarms of locusts in the shape of kings , priesto , placemen , pensioners , hired cat-throats , and sinecorists , who devour the very vital * of society . Ia fact , time would fail me -were I to enter particular !] into all the liberty which the aristocracy enjoy ; but all the ttoerty Trtncb a grert portion of tha people possess , maybe stated in a ^ e * y few -words : ! they have the liberty of obeying laws which they had no voice in making , and the hono « r of paying for alL This is British liberty ; and the present state of the country affords a practical proof of the injustice of such a horrid system .
Wovld society be ia its present degraded and enslaved position if real liberty were established in our land } I unhesitatingly answer , " no ; it is impossible ! " For , in my opinion , true liberty can only exist when equal justice is administered to all : to the qaeen and to the beggir , to the rich and to the poor . Liberty is not a mere sound—a mere shadow . No ! it is a cause which tends to confer happiness on all mankind . It is a cause for which a Wallace , a Ttll , a Washington , and thousands of other brave and noble' patriots have fought and bled . They knew -what liberty -was , and they were determined to gain it , or die in the attempt Their motto was— "We will ^ we shall , "we must be free . " And , when engaged in its battles , the very remembrance of the cause for which they were fighting infused new vigour into their souls—strength
into their arms—and caused them to redonble their exertions , exclaiming at the same time , " Liberty's in every blow . " The poets , too , have given vent to their natural love of liberty in soul-stirring land animating poems—praising the actions of those who have fought and bled in the cause , and delineating the blessings of liberty . Our national bard has truly said that" liberty ' s a glorious feast ;** and my earnest desire is , that all would partake of thiB " glorious feast , " which can only be done by conferring equal rights on all Bat , my friends , it is a -well known fact , that many individuals who profess to be the friends and advocates of liberty look with some degree of astonishment ' at the proposition that all men should be equally enfranchised . They appear to think that a man without a shilling's worth
of property in Mb possession , hut who has obtained an honest livelihood by bis own honest industry , to be intrusted -with political power would be exceedingly dangerous to the rest of the community But I would ask , why is the world g man excluded from the pale of the Constitution ? Why is he robbed of his natural rights and deprived of his social privileges ; converted into a mere hewerjof wood , a mere drawer ef water—a mere toiling machine producing an enormous amount of wealth , -which , after its production , he is obliged to handover to others to eDjoy ? Is there any natural difference between the rich man and the poor man ? Is there any evidence to prove that natnre has doomed the working classes to be the base and servile slave * of the middle and aristocratic classes 1 If
there is , point it out , so that in future we may bow down with submission to those -whom Otod has set up as our superiors . It is said thai the people have not intelligence enough for the judicious exercise of tbe franchise . Show me the difference between the proudest aristocrat and the meanest peasant I Show me that nature has established a difference between the two ; and then I will acknowledge that the poor hard-toiling peasant should be the slave of the other , and that he oa whose bxa-w -was stamped tbe seal of aristocracy , should ride jongh-shod over tha rights and liberties of tbe other . Take the child of the rich man and the child of the poor man , and you will find a complete similarity . For although money , title , and a gilded canopy awaited the rich man ' s child at its birth—although it was
favoured with a royal smile-cheering its infant slumbers , and although it may sway sceptres or wear a crown , when arrived at maturity , yet after aH , it possesses only the same natural capabilities and the same germs of intellect and morality , as the chili born beneath the straw roof ef the peasant , and which was deomed from its very birth to be the slave of some proud and oppressing tyrant . It has been assumed ; by some individual * that nature has given a preference to the rich over the poor ; bat where is the evidence to prove the truth of socb a proposition ? Point me to the material universe , or to one single proof that nature ever in Intended to give a preference to tbe rich Jover the poor ; and then I will admit the soundness of the proposition . But how stands the facts ? Does nature withold its
bountiful gifts , because the earth is tilled by the poor man ? Does the sun refuse its genial warmth , because the poor man tills the ground ? Do the winds of heaven sweep with a terrific sound around the humble dwelling of the poor , and yet breathe -with a gentle softness , and with a Zephyr ' s smile around the dwellings of the rich ? No ! and until 1 am pnt in possession of such evidence as this , I am = determined to cling to the old-fashioned opinion , that until I see one man born -with a saddle upon his back , and another with spurs npon his heels , I will never believe that nature has doomed one man to be the slave of the other , or that the other should ride rough-shod over him . If all the anti-Christian and un-natural distinctions which sow disgrace our land were entirely abolished ,
and that love of our species -which would enable us to look npon every man as our brother and ' to confer the same right and privileges upon others that we claimed to ourselves , established in their stead , ' what a mighty change it -would produce in society . Then would tbe working classes have something to hope for ! Then would they be elevated to that position in society which God and nature intended they should j occupy . The Eun of liberty would then arise and shine forth in its meridian splendour npon our beloved land , before ¦ whose bright and brilliant rays every % v . U oad petoi » cioas system -which has so long degraded and enslaved both the mind and body of man would' die away like snow Defers tbe natural sun . The interest of one would then become tbe interest of alii Then would
the people mean what they say , when they sing " Britons never shall be slaves . * ' Saeb laws Twould then be enacted as would make our country what our would-be poets have declared her to be . " the envy of surrounding nations and the admiration of the ! world . " And where is the man who has the least spark of love for the land of his birth would not wish to see it in that noble position ? And who would not assist to bring about so desirable an object ? Arouse then , my friends , Oar silence gives consent to our own degradation . The banner of liberty is unfurled in our native land , and demands our assistance . Let us awake from our slnmbers ; let us throw off that lethargy which has so long over-clouded us ; and let us show to the world a glorious example of what a united people determined
to be free can accomplish- We must not expect to obtain our rights , by sitting down calmly at our firesides , and complaining of our grievances . 2 * 0 , ~ W 6 must make a grand struggle for liberty . No nation c&a be fret ) until it is prepared to establish its own feeedom . The Government may attempt to defeat thb object with persecution ; but in vain . Persecution never did , nor never will , crush the spirit of jiberty . They may indeed , as they have done , confine the bodies of men in dnngeons ; bnt they cannot chain do n the aspiring energies of a free born mind ; and woatevsr punishment they may inflict on thorn , they cannot suppress tbe soul-inspiring hope that soon a time will come when tyranny and slavery -will be brought to ruin by the virtue and intelligence of an emancipated
people , and on their wreck a temple ' raised to the name of universal liberty . l * t all those ~ who are desirous of bettering the condition of society join into one glorious band of brothers , engaged < in one n » ble cause—Libtriy . Having one object in view—Ihe ^ oodof all mankind—let us throw aside all party differences , and remain firm and tiue to 6 acb other .. Then tbe Government , with all its power , with all its dungeons , blocks , and scaffolds—with all its musketry , cannons , and bayonets , —with all its spies , backed by a hireling priesthood and a venal press , will never be able to Btifla the voice of an united people , who know their rights and dare maintain them . And now , my friends , let us stir up that natural love of liberty which burns within the bosom of every man ; let us strain every serve , and nse every energy which God has given us , to grapple with slavery , tyranny , and oppression—drag theni from their blood-stained ihroDe of Injaslace , and
consign them to the grave of eternal oblivion , and Plant in their stead the pure tree of liberty-, and saving at least * acceeded in planting it ! in onraative soil , let us rally aronndit , and swesr by all that is sscr # d , oy ail that is near and dear to us , to protect it , and P ° nr ont the last drop of our heart ' s' blood ia its iLn ^ Ft !? ™** a " ^^ *• heard tbroBghoutthe Itngth and breadth of our land , saying"Far may the boughs of Liberty expand , F fT ever withered f » ^ ^ ^ ¦ f .

O'Connor's proposition for appointing a Secretary pro tern , for toe election of an Executive , and call npon each district in .

" The resolution was spoken to by various delegates , and carried unanimously . The Secretary was instructed to write to the various localities whose delegates were not present ; and , after transacting ' other business , with something like their ancient spirit , the meeting adjonrned . The attendance was more numerous than it had been for many previous months , and the greatest unanimity , and good feeling prevailed .
Flora Tea Gardens , Barnsburv park . —Mr Wheeler lectured here on Sunday evening , and gave universal satisfaction . Several strangers gave in their adherence to the Association . Mr . Fussell ably ocenpied the chair , and previous to the commencement and at the conclusion of tbe lecture ably addressed the audience . Mr .

City of London Locality . —A pnblio meeting of the members was held on Sunday morning , Mr . Dear in the chair . Messrs .

Tbe receipts of the balance sheet were £ 6 7 s . lid ., and the expenditure £ 6 7 a . 3 d ., leaving a balance of eightpenoe in band . Several debts incurred during previous quarters were discussed , and arrangements made for their liquidation . Mr . Mantis delivered an able lecture and the meeting adjourned , the Council having been summoned for the nnming Friday .
GiiASGOyr . —The last kick of the Complete Bubble iw this Quabtks . —The annual meeting of the renegades , with a few of those who allowed themselves to be made their dupes , took place on Wednesday ] evening , when twenty-four individuals made their appearance- On the chair being taken , the person acting as treasurer gave a statement of their financial affairs , by which it appeared they were upwards of £ 18 in debt . Mr . Rogers said he bad a claim to lay which was not in that list . It was incurred when Mr . H . Vincent was here . Mr . Welsh disapproved of the expenditure as extravagant , particularly the large amount expended in calling the meeting in the City Hall to elect delegates to theiBirmingoam Conference , as they might
have known tbe Chartists would have overpowered them . ( The loss , we understand , is about £ 10 . ) Rogers admitted they had miscalculated ; but if the law would have allowed them they would have called a meeting of their own friends , and would have kept out those parties who destroyed the meeting . Mr . Chisholm wished to know why the treasurer had not in bis ' report given a statement of the Soiree given in honour of Sharman Crawford and Joseph Stnrge , the proceeds of which was to go to liquidate the debt on the Chartist Circular , due to Mr . G . Ross . TAre Chairman eaUed on Mr .. Pattison , who had voted as treasurer in that matter , to state how matters stood . Pattison read a statement which he said was quite correct . Income , £ Q 5 ; expenditure ,
£ 70 odd . Of this , upwards of £ 12 was for printing . Mr . Chisbolm wished to know whether these accounts bad been examined by auditors ! If not , he would move that auditors be appointed to examine both the books of ! the general treasurer and that for the soiree . Several opposed inquiry into the treasurer ' s report ; but , it was agreed that Paitison ' s report be examined into . Pattison rose and said , he was prepared with all the necessary documents . He then endeavoured ! to whitewash himself regarding the extraordinary manner in which the affairs of this soiree had been conducted , and endeavoured to show this an attempt bad been made by certain parties to injure him , in reference to that matter . To prove that , he read part of the Glasgow correspondence of
the Northern Star of the 15 th April , where special reference was made to that soiree . He compared the correspondence of tbe Star with the Arabian Night ' s Entertainments , to be read only to be believed as falsehood . . He abused the Glasgow correspondent as a novice , who did not know the ABC of politics . After a few thrusts at the Editor of the Star , he Bat down , declaring be was about to give up politics , <' ¦* Yef , like the rats who fly from a falling housed ") The meeting , which by this time was reduced to eleven , broke up . Now , for the lying reports of the Star . Pattison and his friends feel sore at tbe ' exposure made in the columns of the Star on the 15 th April . This despicable " loop " states what he knows to be false , when be denies
the accuracy ; of the Glasgow correspondence of the 15 th April . iPattison is at a loss as to who wrote that paragraph . For bis edification I , John Colquhoun tell him that I wrote it ; and . further . that I am prepared to defend before the people of Glasgow , in public meeting assembled , every word therein contained .- " Thelying reports of the S / ar , " indeed ' Let W . Pattison explain to the satisfaction of the public , through what means he got possession of the minute book of the late Central Committee , and the part he acted in connection with ( his owu favourite scheme ) the- " National Printing and Publishing Cottpany" bubble . Will be meet me before a meeting of those who were victimised in that matter
Pattison , I know all about it ; I was done out of one half-crown . . I paid it in the hopes of saving my friends from the intended juggle . I failed to con * vines them-rare they convinced now ? Yes , long ago . Does Mr . Paliison HiDpose I have forgotten hie conduct iu the matter of Robert Malcolm , senior , and John Canning , when the necessary information was kept back for some months , till I extorted the truth at a meeting in the College Open . Yes ; that troublesome fellow John Colquhoun , saved the Association £ 25 on that occasion . These are the reports which trouble such as this " loon . " When this calumniator clears up these and a few other points , we shall then discuss tbe " lying reports of the Slar . "
