THE NEW SCHEME FOR A NATIONAL CHARTER ASSOCIATION . THE SECRET MOVE . We have received " tbe following letter , with its somewhat carious inclosure , which we proceed , of course , to lay before our readers : — *• TO TUB BDITOB OF THE HOBTHKaN STAIL " Si a , —It being the wish of most of the mensbers that the enclosed circular of Mr . Lovett , should be sent to tbe Northern Star , you are at full liberty to make what use of it you like . " Yours , respectfully , " T . TatloB . » London , 183 , Tottenham-court Boid , March 1841 .
' Dear Si& , —The following address is intended to be Fubmitted to all the leading Chartists throughout tbe kingdom that we ean ha-re access to , in order to obtain their signatures , when it will be printed and published as their joint address ; previous to ichich it trill be considered a breach of honour for ant individual to cause its pabLiaxtUm . It is also intended that the persons signing it shall form a provisional board of management for six or twelve months , ( as may be deemed advisable , ) to aid in forming tbe association by the sale of cards ,
or otherwise , after which the board of management is to be elected by the members according to the rules and regulations . * By returning this to Mr . Lovett . 183 , Tottenham-court Road , signed or otherwise , by retttra of post , you will oblige , yours respectfully , ¦ William Lovett , 'JOHTf COLLI . NS , ' Hknbt Hethebixgiom , ' 3 ows clkate , Georgs Rogs&s , HSSST MlTCHET / L .
1 •• The rules and regulations , as set forth in the pamphlet entitled " Chartism , " will shortly be printed , with anch alterations or additions as the parties signing this address may hereafter suggest
' TO THE POLITICAL AND SOCIAL REFORMERS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM . ' Brethren , —In addressing yon as fellow-labourers in the great cause of human liberty , we would wish to rivet this important truth on your mind : You must become your own social and political regenerators , or you will never enjoy freedom . For trne liberty cinnot be conferred by acts of Parliament or decree * Of princes , bat mutt spring up from tbe knowledge , morality , and public virtue of our population . Be assured , fellowcountrymen , that those who have hitherto been
permitted to rule tbe destinies of nations—who in their madness or folly have cursed the land with wars , cruelty , oppression , and crime—will ever maintain their power and ascendancy while they have ignorant and demoralised slaves to approve and exeeute their mandates . Thou $ n revolution were to follow reTolution , and changes were to be continually effected in our constitution , laws , and government , unless the social and political rapenrtrnctare were based upon fba intelligence sag , moraJfty of tbe people , they woald only bare exctaiiiyil » despotism for despotism , asd one set of oppressors for another .
1 , therefore , yon wonld escape your present social and political bondage , and benefit your race , yon must bestir yourselves , and make every sacrifice to build up the sacred Umple of your own liberties , or by your neglect and apathy bequeath to your offspring an increase of degradation and wrong . You cannot suppose that those who revel in the spoils of labour , asd live by the trrctebedness they have created , will be instrumental in promoting tbe political and social improvement of tbe people . They m » y talk of liberty -while they are forging your fetters , may profess sympathy \ rhile they are adding insult to wrong , and may talk of instructing yon while they are devising the most efficient means fur moulding you into passive slaves ; but they will contemptuously spurn every proposal for establishing equality of political rights and social obligations—the enduring basis of liberty , prosperity , and happiness .
' Let every man among you , then , who is \ Jesir * us of seeing the bounties or heaven made subservien t to human enjoyment—who wouM bless our land with peace and human brotherhood , and cause the intellectual and moral capabilities mun is endowed with to spring forth is all their usefulness and excellence , anxiously inquire bow he can be&t aid tbe holy cause of man ' s social regeneration and political freedom . ' Tracing mest of our social grievances to clua legislation , we h&va proposed a political reforsi upon tbe principles of the People ' s Charter : we have made it the polar star of our agitation , asd have resolved , by all just and peaceful means , to cause it to become tbe law of our country . Believing it to have truth f *> r its basis , and the happiness of all for its end , we conceive that it needB not tbe violence of passion , the bitterness of party spirit , nor the arms of aggressive warfare for its support ; its principles need only to be unfolded to be appreciated , and being appreciated by the majority will be established in peace .
' But while we would implore yon to direet your undivided attention to the attainment of that just political measure , we would urge you to make yoar agitation in favour of it more efficient and productive of social benefit than it has been hitherto . We have wasted glorious means of usefalness in foolish displays and gaudy trappings , seeking to captivate the sense rather thin inform the mind , and aping the proceedings of a tinselled and corrupt aristocracy rather than aspiring to tbe mental and moral dignity of a pure democracy . ' Out public meetings have , on too many occasions , been arenas of passionate Invective , party spirit , and personal idolatry , rather than pnblic assemblies for calmly deliberating and freely discussing national or local grievances , or as schools for tbe advancement of our glorious cause by the dissemination of facts and inculcation of principles ; as it is by such teachings tbat our population will be prepared to use , wisely , tbe political power they are now seeking to obtain .
• We are , therefore , desirous of seeing these means applied to a higher and nobler purpose—that of developing the mental and moral energies of the population , to the great end of their political freedom and social happiness . Aa so earthly power can prevent an intelligent people from obtaining their right * , nor aH tbe appliances ot corruption permanently enslave them , we are anxious , above all things , of seeing them instructed in their political rights and social dnties . ' Though the attainment of political power is essential
to enable them to improve , to any extent , their physical condition , yet -we believe tfeat a vast increase of social enjoyment might be effected , { despite a corrupt and degraded government , ) U sobriety and moral culture were more generally diffused . And , therefore , we are desirous of seeing our political teachers disseminating unpalatable truths against drunkennesi and immorality of every description , and by precept and example , endeavouring to rescue our brethren from the thraldom of- their own vices , and from serrilely imitating the corruptions and vices of those above them .
' At the children of to-day will , in a few years , be called upon to txereise the rights and duties of men , h becomes oar paramount duty to qualify them for their future station , and not permit them to be moulded to the several purposes of priestcraft , sectarianism , and charity-msngen ; but to devise , maintain , and exeenta a wise and just system of edncation , calculated to develope all the powers and energies God has given them , to the end that they may enjoy their own existence , and extend the greatest amount of happiness ta amankind . ' With co disposition to oppose the associations already formed , bat with an anxious desire to see all those interested in the social and political improvement of their fellow-men united in one general body to it , we propose t&at such , an association be estaibtiabeO , sad that the following be iU objects : —
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF THE I 7 NITED KINGDOM , For Promoting ( he Pciiiical astd Social Improvement of the People , X . To establish in one general body persona of all creeds , classes , and opinions , who are desirous to pro-

To appoint as many wuoiouanes as may be deemed scceaairy to visit the different districts of the kiqgdonv fox tbe purpose of explaining the views of the associa m
tion , for promoting Its efficient orgiuiieaUon , for lecturiagon Ha difiWrent objects , ana otherwise seeing that the intentions c # ' tbe ipeneral body are carried into effect in the several localities , according to the instructions they may receive from tbe general board . . 4 . To establish Circulating librariea itom a hundred to two hundred volumes each , ' containing the most useful works on politics , morals , the sciences , history , and such instructive and . entertaining works as may be generally approved' of . Such libraries to vary m much as possible from each other , and be sent in rotation from one town or village in the district to another , and to be lent freely to the members .
5 . To print from time to time such Tracts and Pamphlets as tbe association may consider necessary for promoting its objects ; and when its organisation is complete , to publish a monthly or quarterly national periodical . - , 6 . To erect Publio Halls , or Schtolp for the People , throughout the kingdom , npou the most approved principles , « td la each districts as may be necessary . Such halls to be used doriag the day as Infant , JP ** pa ralory , and High Schools , in which the children sbail be educated on the mest approved plans the association can devise ; embracing physical , mental , moral , asd political instruction : and used of an evening "by
adults for public lectures on physical , moral , and political science—for readings , discussions , musical entertainments , dancing , and such other healthful and rational recreations as may serve to instruct and cheer tbe industrious classes after their hours of toil , and prevent the formation of vicious and intoxicating habits . Such halls to have two commodious playgrounds , and , where practicable , a pleasure-garden attached Vo each ; apartments for tbe teachers , rooms for hot and cold baths , for a small runsenm , a laboratory and general workshop , where tbe members and their children may be taught experiments in science , as well as the first principles of tbe most useful trades .
7 . To establish , in such towns or districts as may be found necessary , Normal or Teachers' Schools , for the purpose of instructing school-masters and mifl * tresses in the most approved systems of physical , mental , and political training . 8 . To establish , on the most approved system , such Agricultural and Industrial Schools as may be required for tbe education and support of the Orphan Children of the Association , and for instructing them in some useful trade or occupation . 9 . To offer premiums , whenever it may be considered advisable , for tbe best essays on the instruction of children and adults , for the best description ef schoolbooks , or for any other object promo tire of tbe social and political welfare of the people .
10 . To devise , from time to time , the best means by which the members , in their several localities , may collect subscriptions and donations in aid of the above objects , * may manage the superintendence of the halls and schools of their respective districts—may Lave due control over all the affairs of the Association , and share is all its advantages , without incurring personal risk , or violating the laws of tbe country . If the numbers who signed the National Petition belonged to such an association , by paying a less sum than even a penny per week each person , they would be able to effect the following important objects every year : — £ To erect eighty District Halls , or Normal or Industrial Schools , at £ 3 . 000 each ... 240 , 000 Ta establish seren hundred and ten
Circulating Libraries , at £ 20 each 14 , 200 To employ four Missionaries ( travelling exp&nces included ) at £ 200 per annum ... 800 To circulate twenty thousand Tracts per week , at 15 s . per thousand ... ... 780 For printing , postages , salaries , fcc ... 700 £ 250 , 480 Leaving for incidental expences ... ... 120 £ 256 , 600 Submitting the above objects for your serloasMH sidonition , and resolving to make every possible eflen to establish such an Association , we remain your devoted servants in the cause of human liberty and social happiness .
We know not what tbe concootors of this document will say to our " breach of honour , " but , aa the guardians of the people ' s cause , wo know no breach of honour equal to that of sacrificing it ourselves , or allowing others to do so , without protest . We believe this secret movement to be fraught with mischief , and we therefore hesitate not to brave all the displeasure of its authors by exposing it . There is already a National Association in existence , embracing all the objects of the proposed scheme . This Association , if legally constituted and honestly conducted , supersedes the necessity for another ; if not , it is requisite that its illegality , or its corruption , ot the incapability of the means it
proposes to attain the end sought , should be demonstrated , that tbe necessity for another and more effective association may be shown . But the subscribers te this document , do not affect to find fault with the Association now in existence ; on the contrary , they Bay that they have " no disposition to oppose" it . This admission at once cut 3 the threat of the new movement ; for these parties must know that it is impossible to organise another "National Association" without crippling the energies of that which is already in existence .
In fact , none know better than those at the head of this " new move , " that its effect , if successful , must be so to divide the forces of the advocates of right as to neutralise and destroy the operation of their power . We have bo such fear , however ; the people have too much sense to be diverted from their plain path , as we fancy that a good many of the replies received by Mr . Lovett , to his communication , mast have convinced him . Out of several of these replies , which have been sent to us , we give the following one , as & sample of the people ' s keenneBs of discernment : —
" Sib , —I am directed to Inform you tbat the circular containing what maybe termed , ' The Prospectus ot the National Association of the United Kingdom , ' and which was directed to Mr . Joseph Hibbert , was by that gentleman handed over to the Association . It came very opportunely , as ¦ we were holding a Delegate Meeting when we received it , and after canvassing its contents very minutely and strictly , we submitted it to a meeting « f the members of the Association , who instructed me to inform you that they were extremely sorry to find tbat you , Sir , in whom the country placed so much confidence , should give your countenance and support to a scheme which is calculated to cause
division and distrust among the working classes . Your scheme is a second edition of Socialism ; our motto is , " The Charter and no Surrender . " Yon speak of our pnbUc meetings m arenas " of passionate invective , party spirit , and personal idolatry . " Our " paaionate invective" is the honest outbreak of a suffering and oppressed people ; our " party spirit" is our determination not to be Jed astray b / any who would divert as from our just and honest purposes ; and eur " personal idolatry" is our gratitude te our atedCast and unflinching friends . We know who that was intended for ; but no ; principle i * our idol—of which you have a proof in tbe fact that you and others or tbe people ' s idols now cease to command their adoration . "
We have so few for the bamboozling of such people ! they are wide awake ! Thej will therefore not need our assistance—or we might find it somewhat easy to show up this attempt as one which is capable of being made % flimsy cover for as palpable an effort to gull the native * " u we have seen for some time . Let as not be misunderstood . We make no charge against the six gentlemen whose names are appended to the document . We know some of them to be men incapable of any thing dishonest or dishonourable ; and we know nothing to the contrary of any of them ; but we say that the scheme , is capable of being thus p erverted ; and tbat , therefore , it is not one which the people ought to take any steps for bringing into operation . We say further , that the oonooctors themselves have admitted it to be unnecessary , and that that is another ream why the

BOCHDAI . E . —Dr . M'Douall lectnred here on Wednesday night , at the request of the Chartists , on the evil alliance of Church and State , and ( he Old and New Poor Laws . The leoture was of the highest order—amusing , intelligent , and instructive , and was listened to with delight . COltOLETOsr—on Sotnrday evening last , about six O ' clock , the Congleton Chartists proceeded to the junction of , the Manchester and Macolesfleld roads , a abort" diH % nee from the town , to meet Dr . M'Douall . On Jris arrival , safh ahoutawere raised as made tbe welkin ting . A procession was tben formed as follows : SbVtTal members with Btaves—fcarid—the Doctor In on opett eab , accompanied by Messrs . Naseby , Sw&ln , UgQey , and Burgess—members followed with rosettea . / Several splendid flags were visible in the processtdL gently waving in the breeze . At seven
o ' clock , the precession entered tbe town and proceeded through the principal streets , raising shouts of acclamation in different parts ; the concourse was immense . On their arrival at the room , whick is situated near the Miirkot-place , great numbers returned without gaining admission . Hi . Naseby introduced tbe Doctor . Mr . Burgess read , an address congratulating the Doctor on his liberation from , prison , and also on his appearance among them . The Doctor then rose and expressed bis most sincere thanks for so kind a reception . He then expatiated upon the Suffrage , which he condemned as being too much contracted ; Unity , he contended , was requisite In all tbeir moretneata , and those victim * who bad been recently liberated , were prosecuting their plans with renewed vigour , and , he had no doubt but , eventually , by perseverance , the whole Charter would be obtained . He then sat down in the midst of applause .
Sun DAT Even ma , seven o'clock . —The Doctor commenced by saying he bad read the Bible , and he would not state delusions , but facts . He found at the beginning of Genesis , tbat man originally was placed in Eden , sut was driven out- by God , cursed , and told he should eat his bread by the sweat of hU brow ; but still was allowed the land to Hvo upon ; the woman wad not cursed ; he then quoted from tbe New Testament to tbe same effect . But , under the present system , both she and her offspring were cursed , and dooni « d to slavery , both by the New Poor Law and others equally pernicious . He ( tbe Dector ) had visited the houses of the poor , aqd found their means were scanty in the . extreme ; he-bad > also made inquiries into the circumstances of royally , and found them to be extravagant and highly injurious to tbe labourer . He said the Charter was the only means tbat would render to every man bis own ; it uudoubtedly would produce a great
and serious cbange , bat the sufferings would affect comparatively few . Although a many divisions existed , minor differences , both in politics and religion , ought to be superseded by reason and . common sense ; be only wanted . them to be Chartists j their little differences were ilamaterial . The middle classes bad proved the roost hostile to them ; they would not only rob them , bat their own friends , if they had an opportunity . If the trades would unite tbe Charter would soon be obtained ; it was them who gained the Reform B 11 L Hie wished them to be united , judge for themselves , an * stand up for their equitable and just righto , and their be had no doubt but that , at ne distant period , thf ' Charter would be gained . The meeting , which was very large , separated in the best possible order . Ho lectured on Monday evening to a large audience , and Was | nuch applauded . ¦ . ¦ £ . > ¦ .

FreneU Mlrnald to mov& 4 he-fit » t resolution , who took a review of the proceedings whieh led to the prosecution and subsequent imprisonment of our brethren , and vindicated tbe character of the victims from the foul aspersions tbat had been cast upon them . He stated that persecution could not change men ' s principles , as every victim , as be emerged from his dungeon , took the earliest opportunity of demonstrating , both to his tyrant persecutors and bis fellow workmen , that nothing could make them afraid of defending tbe oppressed from the tyrant oppressors . He moved the first resolution : — " That we , the people of Barnsley ,
deem it to be our duty to petition the Commons House of Parliament , to move an address to the Queen , requesting her Majesty to cause the immediate liberation , from the various gaols of this country , of the whole of the individuals who have been imprisoned for what have been deemed political offences , and that as soon as possible , after the Honourable House has performed that duty , they will introduce into their Honourable House a bill to make the People ' s Charter tbe law of the land . " Mr . Peter Hoey , who was received with the most enthusiastic demonstrations , which prevented him for several minutes from addressing the meeting , next addressed them . He spoke of bis probation in prison , and adverted to the unholy junction between the Barnsley Whigs and Tories , in swearing against him at York , and concluded amid the same demonstrations with which he was received when he commenced . Mr . David Pilmore
pressed the adoption of the National Petition , which was seconded by Mr . Wkldan , who spoke at great length ; after -which Mr . Arran , tbe West-Riding Chartist missionary , came forward to support its adoption , and spoke for at least an hour , to the entire satisfaction of the meeting . The second resolution , as follows : — " That it is the opinion of this meeting , that it is our duty to memorialise the House of Lords to move an humble address to tbe Queen , requesting her Majesty tojtrant the same measure of justice to John Frost , Zepbaniah Williams , and William Jones , as has been awarded to one Lord Cardigan , " was proposed by Mr . William By gate , and seconded by Mr . Joseph Wilkinson , each of whom addressed the meeting . Tbe third resolution was proposed by Mr . James Noble , and seconded by Mr . T . Crofts . It Was to this effect : — " Tbat the petition be sent to the Political Prisoner ' s Release and Chartist Petition Convention . "

The propriety of sending a delegate to tbe West-Riding Delegate Meeting , to take place April 18 th , wan discussed , and was ultimately postponed till next Monday night DERBY . —We have had Mr . Vincent in Derby , and the pretended sympathising factious have shown the cloven foot We have been driven from three rooma which we bad taken for him to lecture in , on account of the interference of the factions in disguise . The last room we took we actually paid the money for it , and even then were not allowed the use of it The landlord , Mr . Cantrill , Nog ' s Head Inn , St Peter ' sstreet , stated that he dare not let us have the room
without the sanction of the mayor . We got his worship ' s verbal sanction , but could not obtain a written one ; consequently , we were floored there alto . The room we took previous to the Nag ' s Head abovenamed , waa arranged for so far that we posted tbe town with bills , and even then , the landlord , Mr . Glue , Talbot inn , Iron Gate , stated that be dare not let us have the room according to promise , therefore the expence of the bills and posting turned out to be of do avalL ' Bat we were determined not to be humbugged altogether . We borrowed a large band beil , and went round the town and cried—that on account » f the base oonduot of the factions , in preventing the Chartisto from holding their meeting , aa announced by bills
now posted , that Mr . Vincent weuld deliver a lecture in the Market-place , at seven o ' clock that evening . We obtained an open chaise , and attended the marketplace , according to announcement , and Mr . Joseph Turner was elected to take tbe chair . H « arose to introduce Mr . Yincent to tbe meeting , when we were ordered to disperse . The crowd shouted o » t , " to Cheater Green , to Cheater Green . " There we went , at > d Mr . Vincent addressed the meeting la an able and energetic style . Chester Green U not within the precincts of the borough . At tbe close of the lecture , some young urchin fired » pistol ; luckily one of our members seised the young desperado , and gave him in custody of a policeman there present , or very likely we should have been charged with a breach ot the peace .

gentleman , and assured him that h « possessed hU entire confidence . Mr . Thoraaa Heed rose next , aod said he wished it to be understood that he bad not the slightest diarespect for , or distrust in , Mr . Woodward , but on the contrary , lie held a very high opinion of that gentleman ; but still he had a person in hta eye whom be would much rather send to that Convention , en account of his age , long standing in our ranks , his wal and integrity , and therefore lie begged leave to propose Mr . Flowers . After the tremendous cheering bad subsided , which followed this proposition . Mi . Flowers row and thanked them for their kindness , but at the same time the duties of that Convention were too much
for a man of bis years , ( upwards of seventy . ) Mr . Woodward waa a young man , and could attend to those dnties much better than he could ; he therefore begged leave to decline , and thought they could net do better than elect that gentleman , Mr . Woodward . Mr . John Page next rose , and-expressed his sincere regret that Mr . Flowers had declined , for although be had the highest opinion of Mr . Woodward , he thought that those who had been persecuted the most and longest , as they know ' Mr . Flowers had , ought to have konours conferred on them , if they were about to be conferred j beides , Mr . F . bad given no sound reason why Jie could not act in that Convention . A person had that day told him ( Mr . P . ) that they had seen our friend Mr . Flowers , working like a horse , for thia week past ,
in obtaining signatures to the National Petition . He therefore thought his age could not be any excuse , and he was sure that the presence of tLat venerable gentleman would-impart a grandeur to that assembly . Mr . Ellis begged leave to move that Mr . Allen be electtxl as a delegate Ja ~ & » Nattasid Pqtttiou Coaventien . Mr . AJien declined ; his circumat * ncea would not allow him to accept that office , indeed be bad no desire to do so ; he had seen enough of it . He concluded a short speech by stating that he thought Mt . W . a very proper person to sit in that Convention . Mr . Colling seconded the nontination of Mr . W . If Mr . Flowers and Mr . Allen bad stood , be should scarcely know to which to give the preference . He held the highest opinion of the whole of these gentlemen , but still , if Mr . Fiowera had been willing to have gone to that Convention , be certainly must say , that he thought be should have liked that the best ; but as it was , every gentleman
would be satisfied " . with , and would elect Mr . Woodward . Mr . Fiowera again rose , and said his friend Mr . P . had talked ef honours . He ( Mr . F . ) looked upon them as bubbles that soon burst and were goue . He thanked his friend and the rest of the gentlemen present , for the high opinion , they always hod , and still bad of him . The only honour he wanted was tbe glorious Charter of our rights . He bad lately bad a jjuruey to London , and he was sure that that journey bad shortened his days ; he had felt his health impaired ever since , but still though he could cot respond to tbeir wish on this occasion , it always was , and ever would be , his desire to . do bis duty to his family and emancipate the working classes- He concluded by declining , and recommending Mr . Woodward . The motion was unanimously adopted . Mr . Woodward thanked tbe meeting in an excellent speech , and promised to do all in his power to forward his mission . Several new members were enrolled .
We understand the Chartist boya of Brighton intend to present our much-esteemed friend Mr . Flowers with a token of their esteem ; wa have not heard what it is to be , but we are sure it will not be a trifle .

chaiaman , stated that ho was highly gratified to sed and meet such an assembly on the present occasion , he thinking they had got the working men of Batley once more linked in the chain of rain ; but , while he was thus addressing them , Mr . Smith , a Chartist lecturer , from Bradford , rose and asked the chairman if they would accept a discussion upon the subject . The immediate answer was "No . " They had not called a publio meeting for that , but merely to get the sanction of that meeting to petition both Houses of Parliament , for a total repeal of the Corn Laws . Mr . Clayton , a Chartist lecturer from Huddersfield , then stated that he would have a hearing on the subject . It was agreed by the par ty assembled , that the anti-Corn Law lecturer
should have one hour to deliver his address , and then the Chartists might have a hearing . The anti-Corn Law lecturer had delivered his address , without any interruption ; then < mo of tKa Corn Law repealers wanted the motions putting to the meeting before the Chartists had said anything , either for or against , what the anti-Corn Law lecturer had stated ; however , he was put down by Mr . Clayton , the Chartist lecturer , and part of the assembly . Mr . Clayton , then delivered an address in reply , showing the many evils which would be brought upon the labouring class if the Corn Laws were repealed without other accompanying measures .- He was asked some questions by tbe chairman , whioh he answered . Mr . Smith , the Chartist lecturer , from Bradford , delivered a short address . The motions were then put , which had been moved and seconded at the commencement of the meeting .

He was listened to with the greatest attention for rather more than an hour .

A committee waa likewise elected , to look after the building of a large Hall , and getting up a public library , Mr . Thomason being elected a member of both committees . . .. . . - UUNFERMLIME . —Dunfermlioe , so long asleep in the sacred cause of the people , appears to be

We had a publio meeting on Monday evening . 29 th March , to consider whether we should adopt the National Petition , Mr . W . Gib , journeyman baker , in the chair . Iu a pithy and concise manner , he enforced upea the meeting , the necessity of following this national plan , as a constitutional measure in which every Chartist would join . Mr .

Circulars were then read from Colliua and O'Neil , and the London Chartists , afiat which the meeting broke up .

O'Connor ,: in bis letter on Church Chartism , Teetotal Chartism , Knowledge Chartism , and Household Chartism , that he objects to Teetotal Chartism , because all who do not join it will be considered as unworthy tbeir civil rights , we believe that the deep and prevailing distress which now exists amongst the labouring elapses of this country , is caused through the effeeta of intern * perance and exclusive legislation , z&d consider it is a duty imperative upon all Chartists to become total abstainers , for the more speedily aad effectually removing the evils under which we labour ; and do .
therefore , respectfully request the co-operation of all our brother Chartists , in the town and district of Bradford , to carry out the glorious cause of total abstinence , aha , consequently , secure the acquisition of the People ' s Charter .

was granted ; on which occasion , Win . Dickson was called to the chair . The Doctor stated and defend * ed tho six points of tbe charter in an able , codyincing r and masterly manner , and then Bat down , being universally cheered ; and then the Irishman , Henry , got up and epoke like a sanctified Tory and unprincipled Whig for nearl y forty minukes ; then the little Doctor conquered him in his short but minted reply . The numerous body of Whigs and Tories who came to bear the Doctor defeated , heard our principles fully stated and defended , and their champion floored . — On Saturday night , Mr .
