      OLD PARR S LIFE PILLS . MORE PROOFS that this noted Medicine will restore to health the afflicted , and continue in sound health the recovered . Read the following from a soldier , discharged from her Majesty ' s service as incurable , after having the advice of the most celebrated physicians : — 11 To the Proprietors of Old Parr ' s Pills . " Gentlemen , —I feel it a duty I owe to you and to the Public at largo , to acknowledge the astonishing benefit 1 have received from taking ' Old Parr ' s Pills . ' I was for nearly nine years in the 52 ud Regiment of Foot , but was discharged in the year 1839 as incurable , after having the best advice her Majesty ' s service afforded , being pronounced consumptive ; I then returned home to Hinckley , where nay attention was attracted to Old Parr ' s Pills . I was induced to purchase a 2 s . 9 d . box , and from that moment I date a renewal of my lifa ; for on taking one box , I immediately began to recover , and two 23 . 3 d . boxes more completely cured me . " I am , yours most obediently , " John Osborn . " Witness—James Burgess , Bookaelfer , &c . &c , Hinckley . The following extraordinary case of cure has been communicated to the Wholesale Agent for Parr ' s Life Pills , at Nottingham : — Mrs . Joseph Simpson , Church Hill Close , Old Leuton , near Nottingham , has been severely afflicted for the last thirty years , with a violent cough , and difficulty of breathing . The affliction has been so severe that she could not fulfil her usual domestic obligations . She took cold when only fifteen years old , and the cough never left her till she took Parr ' s Life Pills . She had tried almost every kind of medicine , and had taken laudanum in large quantities , but nothing afforded relief . She heard of Parr ' s Pills about Ia 3 t Christmas , and as soon as she had taken about half a box , she found herself completely cured , and was never affected in the slightest manner during the severe weather that followed , and is now better in health than she has ever been in her life . This cure does indeed appear miraculous , but for the satisfaction of tho most incredulous , she has kindly consented to answer any inquiries , either by personal application or by letter , addressed " Mrs . Joseph Simpson , Ciiurch Hill Close , Old Lenton . " Two remarkable cases ( selected from many other ?) communicated to Mr . Noble Bookseller and Printer , 23 , Market Place , the Agent for Hull . Mr . Plaxton , of Coltingham , five miles from Hull , had long been afflicted with a most severe internal disease . So dreadful were the paroxysms that he frequently expected death wa 3 at hand to release him from his suflerings . For a great length of time he had been unable to sit down at all , evm being compelled to stand at his meals . His next door neighbour having heard of the virtues aud unprecedented success of" Parr ' s PiliB , " purchased a small box tor him , and on his calling for a second box , he told me that such had been the astonishing effects produced by one box , he was able to sit down , and on taking two other boxes , hia pains have left him ; his appetite is good , and he is able to follow his vocation nearly as well as he has ever been in his life . Mrs . Shaw , wife of Mr . Shaw , yeast dealer , had been for a great length of time afflicted with a severe internal disease . To use his own expression , " p » ying doctors for her had beggared him , " so that at last he was compelled to send her to the Infirmary ; there she received no permanent benefit . Having heard of "Parr ' s -Pills , " he purchased a small box ; sho began to mend immediately on taking them , and two more boxes have cured her . She is as well as she erer was in her life . Mrs . Stephenson , of Cottingham , five miles from Hull , has been severely afflicted with a bad leg for more than ten years , and during that period has tried all kinds of medicines , but without any

      permanent relief . After taking four small boxes of Parr ' s Pills , ehe is able to go-about her day ' s business in a manner which for comfort has been unknown to her for above ten years . Signed , Edmu . vd Stepiienson , her Son . Witness—Joseph Noble , Hull , May 8 , 1841 . u To the Proprietor * of Parr ' s Pills . " Mrs . Ann Lamb , of Haddington , in the Parish of Auborn , bought two small boxes of Parr ' s Pills , at your Agent ' s Medicine Warehouse , Mr . James Drury , Stationer , near the Stone Bow , Lincoln , for her son Jesse , who was suffering very badly from Rheumatism in the hands , kneoi , and shoulders ; he is seventeen years of age , and in service , bat was obliged to leave his place from the complaint . The two boxes completed a cure on him , and Mrs . Lamb bought a third box of Mr . James Drury , last Friday , for him to have by him , and to take occasionally . He has now returned to hia place , free from Rheumatism . " This statement , by Mr . Robt . Lamb , and Ann , his wife , parents of the youth , is given that others may benefit by those invaluable Piils , Old Parr , and they will willingly answer any enquiries , and feel very thankful for the good they have done to their son .

      MEDICAL ADVICE . MR . WILKINSON , SURGEON , No . 13 , Trafalgar-street , Leeds , HAVING devoted his Studies exclusively for many years to the successful treatment of the Venereal Disease , in all its various forms ; also , to the frightful consequences resulting from that destructive practice , " Self Abuse , " may be Personally Consulted from Nine in the Morning till Ten at Night , and on Sundays till Two , at 1 ^ Trafalgar-street , Leeds , and every Thursday at Ho . 4 ,. George-street , Bradford , ( from Ten till Five . ) In recent cases a perfect Cure is completed within a Week , or no Charge made for Medicine after that period , and Country Patients , by making <»» r " * personal visit , will receive such Advice and Medicines that will enable them to obtain a permanent and effectual Cure , when ail other means hat * failed . He hopes that the successful , easy , and expeditious mode he has adopted , of eradicating every symptom of a certain disease , without any material alteration in dint , or hindrance of business , and yet preserving the constitntion in full vigour , and free from injury , will establish hU claims for support . As tnis Disease is one which is likely to be contracted whenever exposure takes place , it is not like many other visitors , once in life , but , on tke contrary , one infection may scarcely have been removed , vmn another may unfortunately be imbibed ; tnereiore , the practitioner requires real judgment in order to treat each particular case in such a manner ss no * merely to remove the present attack , but to preserve the constitution unimpaired , in case of a repetition at no distant period . The man of experience can ayail himself of the greatest improvements in modern practice , by being able to distinguish between discharges of a specific and of a simple or n » * nature , which can only be made by one m aany practice , after due consideration of all circumstances . lii the same manner at birth , appearances otten take place in children , which call for » prop « knowledge and acquaintance with the dIE ? ' . j : order to discriminate their real nature , and wmcu may-be the means of sowing domestic discord , unies * . managed by the Surgeon with propriety and skiu . Patients labouring under this disease , can not be w cautious into whose hands they commit tnemseijw . The propriety of this remark is abundantly mam fested , by the same party frequently passing tne ordeal of several practitioners , before be ^ isioriu nate enough to obtain a perfect cure .. Thei ftlwwwg are some of the many symptoms that ^'" f'g this disease :-A general debility ; eruption on tne head , face , and body ; ulcerated sore throat J scrofula , swellings in the neck , nodes on the hub bones , cancers , fistula , pains in the head and jnjj * which are frequently mistaken for rheumatism , &o . &o .

BRIGHTON . —The following is a copy of the Brighton Memorial to the Marquis of Xormanby : — To the Most Noble the Marquis ofyormanb ' y , Secretary of Stale / or the Home Department , The Memorial of the undersigned inhabi tants of Brighton ; Sheweth , —That your memorialists hare heard lrith feelings of intense regret that James Brcnterre O'Brien , now confined in Lancaster Castle , for' an alleged seditious speech , is suffering from indisposition of a character so alarming , that little hopes are entertained of his recovery in his present situation .-

      That your memorialists are not only apprehensiTe but fully convinced , that the lengthened term and rigour of the imprisonment of the s&Jd James Bronterre OBriea is the cause ot the present dangerous state of hishealih . That your memorialists , therefore , implore your Lordship to exercise your influence in procuring the imme- ' . iate release of the said James Bronierre O'Brien , in order that he may haTe all the care and attention which his wife and friends can bestow on him—attention which cannot be given him in a felon ' s dungeon , bat which , in the opinion of your memorialists , _ can aloLe , if any thing will , procure his recovery .

      That your memorialists beg to urge on your Lordship the fact , that the great mass of the industrious classy would deem the decease of James Bronterre O'Brieb as a national calamity ; and , in the event of this happening prtmaturely in a felon ' s dungeon , your memorialists are apprehensive that the industrious classes generally would regard it as premeditated on the part- of the Government . On these grounds , therefore , your memorialists again implore your Lordship to procure the immediate release of the sii-1 James Bronterre O'Brien .

      CARDIFF . —Mr . Black , of Nottingham , delivered & capital lecture here , on Sunday week , to an audience of about two hundred . A bine bottle made his appearance , yet to his credit , avoided raising a disturbance , listening as quietly as the rest . When the meeting was ended , and Mr . Blackhad proceeded the length of a street off , this man came running after him , and after complaining grievously of being called a blue devil , he delivered his order from the poliee-supt ^ ntendeni , Mr . Stockdale , jun . Black is forbid to hold another out-door meeting on Tree Green . This ; 3 rge piece of ground ha 3 lately been used ( with glorious success ) by Mr . Scott , an eloquen : teetotal advocate ; bat from this time , Mr .

      Stockdale will not aibw the teetotallers to meet here . If Mr . Siockdale believed the object of the speaker to be bad , he neglecxed his duty in not sending his , whole legion to the ground , a : the commencement j of the znse . ing , wi : h instructions to disperse the ; people . But the man who could pocket the whole : of the reward for the capture o ! Z-phaniah Williams , i letting the policeman who ran the risk of being j riddled , have no share , is not the man of whom we j can expect consistency of conduct . From Cardiff , ! Mr . Black , in company of near twenty friends , pro- ! eeeded to Llandaff , a village two miles off . The i lecrnre here , was even better than the one delivered at Cardiff . A silly spoony thought-to frighten Black bv taking dowa what he said . If our wishes

      are compi : ei witu . respecting a resident lecturer , there is little doubt of Cardiff Eoon becoming , a stronghold . 1 SL £ OF WIGST . —The Chartists of the island hold their w * -.-kly meetings on Tuesday evenings . At a resent meeting , after reading the Editor ' s remark-, and other information in the Star , the meeting <; ame to the following resolution : —*'• That this meeting v ews with di ? gs = t and indignation the union of Messrs . Lovett , Collins , Vincent , and others , with that politics ! swindler , OConnell , and

      a rump of ibe sham-Radicals , who have once already basely betrayed tb . 3 working classes , and are only waking for another opportunity ; a union which has for its object the division and ultimate subjugation of the Chartist body . "— " That this meeting highly approves of the manner in whien the Editor of-the Northern S : ar has met the attempt , accords to him its beot thaj-ks , and hopes he will expose , in the same mifiir < ch ; : g spirit , every effjrt made to burke Universal Scffrage , whether by treacherous friencs , or avowed enemies . "

      HULL . —T £ MP £ RA 5 CB A > "D ChAUTISM MCTCALLT Pbogrisixg . —Scarcely can better evidence be offered of the steady progress of the principles of Chartism in this town , than the fact which recent occurrences have brought to light of their having actually uprooted the most powerful form of fanaticism wh' . ch has yet assailed the human mlnJ , the mania of teetotalism . Great as are the benefits of temperance , and many as are the advantages which an immense number of individuals have derived from the various societies established for its

      promotioa , these societies have been generally hitherto crippled in their beneficial influence by the affected exclusion of ail political grounds of advocacy , but which , de facto , was only the exclusion of Radical , or honest argument ; while parties putting forth Epeciou 3 pretensions , and wearing ^ sanctimonious fronts , have actually made the benefits accruing to the working man from his adhesion to thesa societies , to become a new source of iEJaiy , and means of oppression and robbery . No circumstances are so favourable to the

      establishment of an overbearing influence , which , in ill adjusted minds , may be used for evil purples , as thusa attendant on a prominent position in a Temperance Society . The " reformed chi-acters " espec-. aiiy , of whom it often happ-ns that ths bulk of the native portion of the society coasist , lose almost ever / other consideration in thai of gratii-ud ? to the mip who , under the-gnidance of providence , has sna ; c-bed iheni from the pit of drunkenness . Hence it ; s almost a universal case that the secretaries and orher prominent persons in these 88 cieries , who are generally middle-class men , and

      foil of political rancour , succeed in carrying with them a " -Efficient number of the unrefl-cting among the members , to mould the Eociety af : er their own fashion , and so to exclude most rigidly every > ubject of discussion calculated to induce any politically beneficial result to the suffering millions . In no case has this been more strikingly exemplified than in thai of the Hull Temperance Society , which i =, and has long been familiarly known * as " ilr . Firth ' s Soiiety . " Mr .

      eause of temperance , not merely on its own merits in the abstract , but as a mighty engine in the hands of the many , by which to overturn the oppressive domination of the few—while , at the same time , and bj the same argument , they show that in order to secure to themselves the continuance of the social benefits derived from temperance , the people must hare control over the making of the laws , or they will be assuredly robbed of all their sayings . from the alehouse , and the proceeds of their increased industry .

      GLASGOW . —The Middle Classes joining the Chartist Movement . —A public meeting of tho inhabitants of the First , or what is generally termad the Westminster Ward of Glasgow , was held in St . Ann ' Church , on the 3 rd instant , at eight o ' clock p . m ., Mr . Bankin , merchant , in the chair , who opened the business cf the meeting by stating that a requisition had been presented to the six councillors of the ward , signed by upward ^ of eighty electors , requesting them to call a meeting in favour of Universal Suffrage and the Ballot , three of which gave verbal

      answers against the object altogether . Mr . Dunlop , of Clyde Iron Works , and Mr . Bell , whom the people hitherto considered as friends of Universal Suffrage , sent letters ( which were read to the meeting by Mr . Ancott , Secretary to the Universal Suffrage Electors Association of Glasgow ) treating with heartless and bigoted derision the object of the requisitionists . Groans , hisses , and execrations followed the reading of these letters . A kind of relief was furnished to tbe meeting by the honest declaration of the Venerable Baillie Turner , of Thrushgrove , on whose land stands the monument of Baird and

      Hardie , who were executed at Stirling , in 1820 , for taking an active part at the f kirmish of Bonney Muir , betwixt the King ' s troops and a brave band of Radicals , on whose banner was inscribed the motto of Scotland's champion—Sir William Wallace , " Scotland free or a desert . " Mr . Turner , with bis usual warmth of feeling , declared he would call the meeting if they could only gpt one out of the five to go along with him . —Mr . Wotherspoon , a middle class man , and a radical of fifty years standing , moved the first resolution in favour of Universal Suffrage and the Ballot , which was seconded by Mr . Borrows . Mr . Ross , Chartist banker , in a speech of nerve and ability , moved that they should at once swallow the Charter bristles and all , " amidst great cheering , which was seconded by Mr . Wardrop , in a very sensible speech . Mr . Ancott replied in behalf of the motion , Mr- Malcolm and Mr . Walker , in favour of the amendment , which was put and

      carried unanimously . —Mr . Moir , in a speech of stirring effect , amidst universal approbation , moved that the Town Council be memorialized in terms of the amendment , jnst now so oordially and universally adopted by such a respectable portion of his fellow ten pounders . Mr . Win . Brown seconded the motion , which was carried . —Mr . Ancott moved the appointment of a committee to draw up the memorial to the magistrates , and Mr . Strang moved a deputation to wait upon the magistrates with it . A iarge committee was then appointed , after which Mr . John Colquhoun moved a vote of thanks to the people of Nottingham , for supporting a Tory in place of a Whig , which was seconded by Mr . Moir . Mr . Malcolm moved an amendment , which was considered rather Whigsish . Thanks were then given in the terms of Mr . Colquhoun ' s motion to the people of Nottingham , and the Chairman , when the mooting dissolved .

      MANCHESTER . —Lecture . —On Sunday evening , Mr . John Campbell delivered a lecture in the Caartist Room , Tib-street The Chairman , previous to introducing the lecturer , made a few remarks upon the progress of the cause ; he was Tery proud to inform that meeting that the females were about to join the National Association next wetk , and afterwards meet once a wetk , when they would be addressed by one of the lecturers . This gave him ( the Chairman ) great pleasure , because he felt confident that when the women took up tbe qnestion properly , the tnd for ¦ which we are striving would be attained—icheers from the ladies ; a voice , " Every man ought to let his wife come to the females' meeting . " ) Ye » , said Wheeler , he was quite agreeable to that ; but he would not have

      the men to make them come against their own inclination . His t Wheeler ' s ) wife was a Daniel O'Connellite , and be was sure she would not come . He was highly delighted to witness the progress of the ciuse , both in Manchester and all over the country . That room in which he then stood was engaged fer four nights in the coining week , besides the lectures and discussions which would be held in other rooms in and about Manchester . The Chairman then stated that , according to the speaker ' s plan , Mr . Greaves , at Oldhara , should have lectured there that evening , and if he was in the room , he would be Tery glad to hear him , and he was very sorry to hear that bo had flinched from the mark , and had turned instalment and Corn Law repealer man . He always thought Mr . Greaves a stanch man , and at

      the las ; delegate meeting he acted in the capacity of chairman , and acquitted himself honourably . But notwithstanding his turning round , he would be very glad to hear him , because , aft « r his address , a discussion would commence upon anything which might be advanced contrary to going for the whole Charter and no surrender . Such circumstances as these would more than ever show the necessity of not putting too much confidence in men , but of sticking to principle , which could not change . Much as he respected F . O'Cocnor , he was prepared to say that so s » on as h 9 flinched from one jot of his former professions , so soon would he throw him overboard- Indeed , he considered that Feargus would deserve more censure than any other man in the movement , because he was most responsible ;

      the people being more attached to him for his former s&crinces and exertions— ( hear , hear , )—to say nothing of his suffering now , which binds him clcser aad closer in their affections , and causes them to repose more confidence in him , and because likewise for his previous consistency . And though the nation ' s voice will ring ¦ when he comes from his prison , an J thousands assemble to welcome him home and to his post , yet , after all thi 3 , was he to turn either to the left or to the right , a-way he goes . ( Cheers and " no danger , " and " God bless him , " from the ladies . ) This was ju * t in the position he wished to see the working classes , that is to pay due respect to consistency , come from whtre it may , and discard inconsistency eTen from the best man in the movement ( Cheers . ) After calling upon

      his hearers to support the wives and familieBof the imprisoned Chartiita , he hoped they would listen attentively to the kcture , and sat down much applauded . [ Here our reporter wishes to make a remark in reference to Mr . Greaves , which is to the following effect : —That Mr . Jaints Leech , the South Lancashire lecturer , was in the neighbourhood of Oldhani a short time since delivering a lecture . It was in the evening . After which , a gentleman , who was in company with two others , -who are great Cjrn Law repealers , cotton manufacturers , and wealthy men , came to Leech , in the presence of our reporter , and offered him a supper , bed , and breakfast next morning , at the same time shaking a silk purse , full of sovereigns , in his face , and begging of him and pre sing him to stay all night

      But how did Leech treat them ? Why , h « ar it ye working men of Lancashire , —he was rather poorly at the time , and fatigued , and had it not been for this offer , he would have tamed all night at his own exptnee at the inn ; but he indignantly turned and looked upon his tempter with scorn , never spoke to him , but walked nine miles home that night The same trick is being played in several towns round Manchester , and any guud Chartist may sell himself at this lime if he feels disposed , and the more confidence he possesses , tits greater will be his chance of jetting a good price . ] Mr . Campbell rose and said , they were met to discuss their grievances . He was glad to witness the progress of the cause , an i its rolling speed within tbe last few months . The Chartists were the only party who were going for

      full and effective justice . It mattered not what name they -went by , whe ; her Whigs , Tories , or foreign policy humbug 3—so long as they were net prepared to give the same justice and right to another as they enjoyed themselves , their ground was not so tenable as that of the Chartists , who conceded to every man that which justice , truih , and right entitled him to . ( Cheers . ) It is bcCiuse we hold out the vote to every man—it is because" we S 3 y to the black man , and men of every class , creed , country , or colour , " Come with us "—It is because we go for a full measure of justice , and not stop short of that , or are led away by any haif and hili clap-trap , that the Chartist cause is superior to any and evtry other agitation . ( Hear , htar . ) What is the

      state of the country ? He had a favourable opportunity of knowing how the cause was going on in all parts of the country . He had been written to for membership cards from a dozen of the largest towns , where tiie Chartists did net exist as a body before , but who are now for joining the Association ; amongst tho above towns was Chester , that Tory-ridden hole ; but thanks to il'Djuall for that ( Cheers . ) He had sent cards to Sarrey and Ipswich , and many other places ; and he had received a letter from Belfast , in Ireland , from s young man who was once a member of the Chartist Association of Salford , requesting him ( Mr . Campbell : to Bend hini word how h 9 must proceed to extend the principles of Chartism in Belfast , and thus expos * those men who have so long ridden rough-shod over th *

      people . Mr . Campbell said that he waj aware then was something awkward in corresponding with th < people of Ireland politically ; but to obviate that , diffi culty , he thought he would not write in his officia . capacity , but write as a friend . He would not sa ; what his friend at Belfast should do ; but lie woul ! S 3 y what he ( Mr . Campbell ) would do were he si situated . He would call his friends together on : Sunday evening , or any other convenient time and get the Nerthern Star , and read it U them , and write to the people of Englasc for mere Stan , giving at the Bame time the address o the person to whom they should be directed , and wel circulate them ; and , when they properly understood the principles and the intentions of the Chartists , thej would have a room of their own . ( Cheers . ) Th « speaker continued—We sxe progressing at that speed which in a short time the giant spirit of Chartism wil

      overwhelm all the factions . ( Hear , hear . ) It is be cause we allow every party to come upon the rostrun after our speakers have done , and discuss the prin eiples we advocate , and object to anything which t < them did not appear straigbtfjrwaad or true . ( Hear and cheers . ) He ( the speaker ) would not belong to ai Association twenty-four hours who would not fJlox free discussion . ( Hear , hear . ) Why have we to mee ! on a Sunday evening ? Here the speaker showed the reason which he stated was be causa that mighty organ of the people , the Northern Star , enabled the people ol England to converse with the people of Scotland , and caused a' union of spirit and determination for the same object . Bath could speak to Brighton , and vice rersa . ( Cbeen . ) The Star has brought us to a general understanding , and guarded us against being led astray by humbug . ( Cheers . ) Men , of the same party of which bis audience were composed , were met at the time lie was speaking , to bear the same principles ad-

      Untitled Article

      vocated as were from time to tim 9 in that room , in no lass than twenty-six rooms within twelve milts of Manchester—( cheers )—and they would go on until they were properly established in the minds of the people , never more to be erased . ( Cheers . ) Mr . Campbell bare argued that if tbe people were , comparatively speaking , well off—nay , that if they were fed like spaniels , that would be no reason why they should cease the agitation for the Charter . ' But , said be , there is another very cogent reason why we should continue , namely , because it is the birthright of every man in the United Kingdom . ( Cheers . ) Now , be would ask , whether it was possible for tbe country to be content so long as the wealth is wrung from tbe real producers , and they left to starve . So long as there was no

      protection for human blood and bones , he , for his part , would tell his audience whenever he had to address them , that they ought not to be content while they saw , without a speedy alteration , nothing but ruin to themselves , and not the least prospect for their children . ( A voice , we never will . ) Here the speaker gave the following statement , which he said was not from Chartist authority , nor from Tory or Whig authority—but from Corn Law Repeal authority—that there ! were £ 700 , 000 , 000 of wealth produced oyery year by 6 , 000 , 000 of people ; that every man who works earns £ 116 13 s . 4 cL per year . But do the working people receive their share ef it ? No . Tho average wages of the operatives at the highest calculation is not more than 9 s . or 10 s . per we « k . So that upon an average

      every man receives £ 25 per year ; the rest is taken from him in the shape of taxes , ts keep a set of idlers who produce nothing . Every man , according to that statement , Is robbed of £ 1 13 s . per week , which should be appropriated to purchase food and clothing . Let the industrious millions know this , and they will see no reason to be content in their present situation . ( Hear , hear . ) Again , according to the statement of a statistical scholar , he meant Porter ' s Tables , it took £ 12 , 000 , 000 to support the state church ; the Poor Law , £ 8 , 000 , 000 ; local taxes , £ 100 , 000 , 000 ; the rental of the hind , £ 120 , 000 , 000 ; the brokers , binkers , and all those who live by buying cheap and selling dear took £ 300 , 000 , 000 , and left only £ 25 a yearfor the real producer . Every man who produces , therefore , is

      robbed every week to the tune of £ i . 13 s . 4 d . Here tbe speaker commenced his remarks upon Universal Suffrage , and asked what would or what could be done under Universal Suffrage to' better the condition of the people ? He , for his part , thonghtthat it was the duty of both speakers and writers to show tke results which would follow such a measure wlien achieved . ( Hear , hear . ) No man has a right to monopolise one hundred acres of land . Nay , nor twenty ; and he would go still further—not an inch . The land was given by tbe eninipotent Ruler of the universe for the sustenance and comfort of mankind . On this point he was borne out by the ablest authors , to wit , Blockstone , Paino , Locke , and others , that the land ought to be common property , rud this could only be done by obtaining tbe Charter .

      And at the present time there was a brighter prospect of having the Charter than ever . He saw by report that Finality Jack ( as ho had used to call him , but of lato he had been glad to alter terms , ) had given notice , after being driven to it fer a hustings question , to more a committee to inquire into the Corn Laws ; and if we continued as we have done of late , he will be very glad to move a committee for the Charter or something else . ( Cheers . ) Suppose the government were to purchase 700 , 000 acres of land at this time , when distress and want is stalking through the land , and build houses upon it ; this in a very short time would find work fur what the Whigs term surplus population . But some of you will be ready to ask , Where will you get tbe money from ? To which

      he would answer , that the people must ob ; ain the Suffrage , and would it sot be as reasonable to suppose that if a Parliament chosen by the few could give £ 20 , 000 , 000 to emancipate West Indian slaves , that a Parliament chosen by the many would grant the same sum to banish Great Britain slavery . ( Hear , hear . ) This would be a very efficient means of keeping up wages , and Repealing tbe Corn Laws , besides making those who only now consume a society of producers . Here Mr . Campbell referred to America , and said that Universal Suffrage was not acted upon all through America ; bat in those states where they came nearest to it , the people were more happy than- in any other part of the country . He made a comparison betwixt that part of America governed by

      monarchy , ( Canada , ) and the other side which was governed by democracy . The first was a system of tyranny and want , and the latter , of plenty and liberty , ( cheers ') and only about a mile apart Mr . Campbell here related a dialogue which took place betwixt Pitkethly and some other gentleman , about the Whigs being kicked out of office , which convulsed his hearers with laughter . He next glanced at tbe objection which was frequently brought against the peoplo having tbe Suffrage extended ; but Lord John Kussell had , however inadvertently , let the cat out of the bag . He ( Lord John ) knew better than that ; he was not afraid of the people ' s ignorance , but rather of their intelligence . The little fellow knew they bad too much for him ; for , said he , " If you grant the people Universal

      Suffrage , thay will abolish the laws of primogeniture . They would separate tbe holy alliance of church and state , and even subvert the throne , and upset all the good institutions . " Good institutions , indeed ! They may be so to such as Lord John Russell , but are they go to you , the working portion of the community ? ( No . ) Mr . Campbell said , that by abolishing the laws of primogeniture , and giving the Government alone the power of purchasing the land , it would in time again be the property of tbe wboJe of the people . ( Hear , hear . ) He then explained how the Bedford family came in possession of their estates , and gave a full account of the conduct of Henry the 8 th , and Wm . the Conqueror , and tho other noblemen—noblemen did he say ? yes , they were noble Brigands ; they were noble

      so far as robbing and plundering were concerned . He made some remarks , which would not , although true , have pleased Lord John : and , said Campbell , the little follow was only afraid , that if the people had Universal Suffrage , they would begin to think which was the best way of getting the- land back which had been stolen from them , and for that reason they ( tbe Whigs ) must not give it them . ( " Right lad . " ) Base and bad as they have been , he would not take a farthing ' s worth from them , but he would abolish the laws of primogeniture , and every man who wished to sell his land , must sell it to the state , and , it would not be loa . 5 before the land came in possession of the whole people again . ( Hear , hear . ' He would now tako the liberty of making a remark , in reference to his own

      unfortunate country , Ireland . It was the same enemy which inflicted the wrongs upon one country as tbe ether . The upper and middle classes were banded together , to get i * s much out of the labourer as possible . The interest oi the middle and working classes were as distinct as light from dark . The one wanted tho labeur as cheap as he coulil , while the other wished to sell it as dear as he could , or rnthtr get a proper price for it , if possible . Bat he ( Campbell ) liked the law which would make every man a producer , and would carry out the divine law of the apostfe Paul , that if a man would not work , neither should he eat The speaker then related the following anecdote : —The week previous he had been opposing the repealers , at a large meeting at Oldharu , at which a great number of

      "superfine-coated cotton lords were present ; nnd in the course of Mr . Paulton ' s address , he quoted the first and second verses of the first chapter of the Bible , and rirew the inference that the laud bhould belong to the people , " and cursed is he that muzzleth the ox , " &c , but when he ( Campbell ) got up , he told them , that if Mr . Paulton was allowed to quote Scripture for his arguments , surely he might do the same . But he questioned whether the gentlemen upon the platform would relish it very well . He then read from the Testament , " That he who will not work , neither shall he eat " The cotton lords writhed and appeared chagrined at this , while the workics laughed for a considerable time . iCheers . ) Tho principles of the Charter were so well known in every large town in England , that no faction

      can call a public meeting , at which the Chartists would not be able to carry a motion for tho Charter . There had been a public meeting in the Town-hall , Manchester ; likewise in the Town-hall , Salford , for the repeal of the Corn Laws . At both meetings an amendment was carried for Universal Suffrage . He had written to Robert Inglis , but not as an apologist for the Corn Laws , stating the facts , and was ready himself to prove , and could bring hundreds more to ( to so , that the petition wkich emauated from Manchester , has not been obtained by public opinion . As a striking illustration of the progress of democracy , it was now about five years ago , when there were bat a few towns in England , where they had rooms for the purpose of holding Chartist in

      meetings , or rather Radical meetings , as they -were then cailed . Tfcey had gone on at a rapid speed from that time to this , and now there were as ninny rooms open in Manchester , as there use 4 to be in all England . The meetings were chiefly addressed by the middle class formerly , but now , as Boon as one came forward to oppose them , that vtry moment the people would ask him where begot his coat —( laughter)—and the working classes couM meet their oppressors nnd tell them to their teeth of their aggressions and injustice . ( Hear , hear . ) These gentlemen , who go about the country fall or sympathy for the working chases , and who wish to give them a large loaf , never advert to the Poor Law Amendment Bill , and to the Banking system ; and if it was not for the latter , their trado would not go en as it had done to the injury of the working classes . We were producing more by fourteen times in 1835 than we were in 1797 , and if trade advanced with tba

      same space , uncontrolled as it had been , the devil a bit better would the working classes be by a Repeal of the Corn Lawi . ( Hear , hear . ) He thought he had produced sufficient motives for every man before bim to come forward who bad not done , and join the association . Every father , mother , patriot , and philanthropist , should do everything in his or her power to obtain the freedom of himself and children , aad declare that they would not rear children to be slaves at all events . ( Hear . ) Now , one word , in reference to the proceedings of last Wednesday evening . [ The particulars of this , will ba found in another part of the paper . ] He was Tery sorry indeed to witness the cuntiuct ' of his fellow ceuntrynien , the Repealers . We , as Irishmen , were met to discuss our grievances . The address wiiich was got up was such as no Irishman could object to . He ( Campbell ) bad written to the Secretary of the Repeal Association , te ask aim -whether he could inuentity himself with such conduct as that which was exhibited in the room on Wednesday night , bat it had done the

      Untitled Article

      Chartist cause a great deal of good , for many Irishmen , who never bad joined the Association , declared they would do so , Beeing that we have justice and reason on our sida . ( Hear , bear ., However , the address wonld bJ sent to nino different papers for publication ; the Northern Star , our own paper ; the " two Chartist Circulars , the Weekl y Dispatch , the Sun , and several of tbe Irish papers . He wished the people of England , and the people of his own country , Ireland , to go together . Since he had been associated with the working men of England , he had had demonstrative proof that the people' of England wished for nothing ¦ for themselves , but they were as willing to give to the people Of Ireland , and indeed it was emphatically the interest of the producers of wealth to be united in all the

      British dominions , until the light of liberty shine into the mind of every Irishman . Here Mr . Campbell said there A no necessity for anything like an outbreak , but ha ^ pe been living in ' 88 , bis life ' s blood should have been spilt , or he would have died straggling for the liberty ( Here we lost the last sentence amidst the deafening plaudits . ) He hoped the people would continue united another five months , until the " caged lion" should be released from his den—( loud cheers ) jand when tbe mighty fingers of O'Brien would be brought into action in favour of our cause , and when all of them should lend tfaeir « nergies for the purpose of crushing the small fry , and by the next spring they would have such an agitation as was never before witnessed in England ; when they would have , not as now , a Convention of ten only , but a Convention of

      three or four hundred , and they would be able to present a petition signed by three or four millions , demanding justice for the-wkole people of the United Kingdom . Let the working men of England , Ireland , and Scotland never be afraid of joining the sacred band of patriots , but join heart and hand , and assist in breaking the yoke of bondage , and snapping asunder tbe chains of slavery , which have so long held both mind and body in subjection . He thanked them for their patient bearing , and sat down amidst the loud cheers of ( he assembly , which was numerous , respectable , and attentive . A vote of thanks was given by acclamation for his services , and a letter was read from Dr . M'Douall , which urged upon the committee to exert themselves in getting up a petition for O'Brien , and the assembly retired highly satisfied with tbe evening ' s treat .

      BRADFORD . —On Sunday last , the Teetotal Chartists of Bradford held a meeting in the open air , near the Christian Chartist Church , Longcroft-place , when they had the opportunity of promulgating the principles of total abstinence to a very numerous assembly . The chair was taken by J . a . Alderson , who opened the meeting by a very appropriate address , and was followed by Messrs . Jenner , Wooller , and Waterhouse . A great many seemed to be convinced of the utility of the arguments adduced and several signed the pledge . It is their intention to hold another at nine o ' clock in the morning , on Sunday next .

      CBICKENLfaY . —The Chartists here have met and passed resolutions to the effect that the plan of Lovett , Collins , and Co . is entirely useless , as the National Charter Association comprises in its operation all the means for their redress , except socialism ; that the plan , if fairly meant , ought to have been submitted for consideration to the Delegate meeting at Manchester ; that they will never countenance any national plan by whomsoever put forth , which has not been discussed and agreed upon by a national meeting of delegates ; that they will nover give their support to any plan upholden by Daniel O'Connell ; and that they repose unbounded confidence in , and give their best thanks to , Feargus O'Connor and the Editor of the Nortfiern Star .
