HUMAN XJFE . DROBABLY no theory can come more welcona J- to the human mind than the one which establishes , on good grounds , a hope for prolonged existence ; for , notwithstanding the trials , vexatiras , and difficulties incident to this life , the love oflife increases with our years ; it is one of the iniate principles of our nature , and cannot be explained away by any of the subtleties of the sophist , nor drercom « by any amused dignity derived from a lalse philosophy . There are many of these inextingiisbable principles in tur nature—our love of freedqnlove of country—love of homo , and many others , but tbe lore of Jife predominates . At present , the popular opinion is , that the natural duration of human life is seventy years , but tlis is contrary to both sacred and profane history . This opinion is , no doubt , founded on a misunderstanding 01 a passage of the 90 th Psalm , where it is hdeed stated , " That the days our years are three score years and ten , and if by reason of strength they be four score years , yet is their strength Jabdur and sorrow . " Now , it must be remembered , thifc this Pwalm is ascribed to Moses , and that he is not speaking of the lives of men in general , but of wSat was occurring among the Israelites in tbe wilderness . His own life , as well as the lives of the more eminent of his brethren , was far move extended ihan eVeu four gcore years ; and , as he complains of the people being cut-off , through the displeasure of God , it is reasonable to conclude , that he is not alluding to the period during which men were capable of living , bat siinpiy to the fact , that , owing to the judgments of the Almighty , which befel the Israelites on account of their sins , but few of them attained a more lercfithenfd existence than that of seventy or eighty years . " For we are consumed , " he says , ** by thine anger , and by thy wrath are we troubled . " Tney died not a natural death , but wtra cut off for their sin and unbelief , by judicial dispensations . The clever Dr . Farrc maintains , that 12 # is the last grant oi God to man , and quotes the sixth chapter of Genesis , and the third verse , where it is written , " My spirit shall noc always strive with man , for that he also is flesh ; yet his days shall be an HUNDRED AND TWENTY TEAKS . " Now , W 6 find this expressed , intention on tho part of God gradually carried into effect—the principle of vitality appearing to become weaker until the close of the era in which the postdiluvian patriarchs flourished ; when , although several centuries had elapsed since the deluge , wo find that 120 years was about the average of human existence . Supposing , then , that the theory of long life is well sustained , the question naturally suggests how are we to attain what is so desirable ? A wise general , on the eve of battle , makes a proper disposition of his forces beforehand , and does not wait till tho enemy has made an attack , and thus , by forethought and due preparation , reasonably expects a victory ;—thus ,, he who has a desire to attain a healthy , ' and consequently , happy old age , does not indolently wait for the attack of the enemy , which is sickness , but is constantly on his guard against his insidious approaches , by paying proper attention to the state of his health . Many would fain occasionally mo medicine to assist nature in her operations ; but'liffe a mariner at sea without his compass , kuowing not where to steer , they first try this , and then that , and meet with nothing but disappomtfrirnt ; to these , how welcome must be the important fact , that Parr ' s Medicine is all that ia required ; the fine tonic properties it contains , invariably restore the stomach to a healthy longing for food , or , in other word ' s ^ it produces a good appetite , so much euvied , but so seldom enjoyed , by the invalid ; the gently stimulating ' power it possesses , assists the stomach to properly digest tho food it receives ; the balsamic powers it bestows on the system , produce that delightful feeling of good spirits , bo Terv de 6 ffa \> l . > , and dispose both raind'and body to neaUny exercise ; everything under its iiiftueuce soon wears n joyous aspect , and the varied duties oflife are performed with pleasure ! It in addition contains a fine sedative quality , and instead of long and weary nights , givek sound and refreshing sleep . It' tbe stomach and bowels require it , it acts as the mildest and most s ^ mable purgative , and by its cleansing powers totally eradicates a redundancy of bile , and completely remotes all obstructions of tbe intestinal canal . , Cases of every description bare boen cured simply by the u ^ e pf 1 ? abb ' s Life Pills , thus showing , that what have been considered different disorders , and requiring different treatment , all originated in the fame cause , and can be cured by one uniform treatment . Parr ' s Life Pills , although powerful in conquering disease , yet are as pure and harmless as new milk , and may be administered with confidence to an invalid , however weakly from longill-healtn . wio will goon enjoy those delightful symptoms of » Mtura to strong health ; v ; z ., good appetite , souna sleep , and an lnorease of animal spirits . —To . nav « produced a medicine so benign and mild in its operation and effijots , and yet so effectual in ' , serening out and curing disease of however long standing ! exhibits on tke part of Old Parr deep research ana alhorou > ju knowledge of his subject . Those wn « have been the instruments of restoring this long ? lO 6 » secret to the world , feel coufident when therm * W this assertion—that none need despair , that if only a fair trial be given , the result will be restoration to health and happiness . " Thus shall their humble labours merit praise . And future Parrs be blest with honoar'd days . This medicine is sold wholesale , by appointment , by Edwards , St . Paul's Church Yard , London . , Piiue la .-Tjd ., 2 s . 9 d ., and family boxes lls . eacaj the boxes at 2 s . 9 a . contain equal to three small , ana those at Us . equal to five at 2 i . 9 d .

sentiments of his mind honestly and impartially i he believed he did all ho could to prevent bis countrymen from resorting to such bru ^ l conduct . After giving priesJ Thome credit for _ his candour at St-cphenson-square , and touching on many other topics , he concluded by exhorting the electors and nonnelectors to use their influence ou behalf of'Mr . Bairstow , as a candidate who would , if returned , . eo fu-ther than any other candidate then in the fkld soliciting their suffrages , and sat
down amid the plaudits of the vast assembly . The chairman then rose and said , that he had tne pleasure to introduce that eloquent advocate of the r > eople ' s rights , Mr . Bairsiow . ( Loud cheering . ) Mr . Bairstow then rose , and said he came before them that evening for the purpose of explain-1 d # to them his political principles , and to answer any- questions bearing upon his political life and op inions which might be asked by the parties present , and likewise to explain tbe reasons why he had consented to offer himself as a candidate for
tbe representation of that borough in Parliament . No doubt tha idea of a Chartist coming forward and contesting the election of so important a borough as that of Stockport , might cause many an antiquated Tory to ian ^ h , and many an ho' . low hearted Whigling to curl the lip of contempt ; he could allow the grimacing h-. asrjas to laugh and sneer at his expense , as that seemed u > be their only original propensity . They knew , from painful experiment , that the Whi ^ s would not hesitate ai the perpetration of any crime , however dark , nor any d-. eds , however atrocious , to effect tiuir own sinister and mercenary objects . ( Cheers . ) Without being in the leas ' t uflerted by ihe sur- ^ rcilious , groveiling conduct of the Whi ^ s , he would proceed in the task he had undc-nik ^ n , cutnug away right and kit , so long a ;
the nation v .-ss curbed with such a cowardly , imoeclls , and er ^ el faction . ( Cheers . ) Although ho had consented to offer himself a % -hat iinportsiit crisis , be wished it to be dis : inetJy understood rhat he had not the slightest conceptioc " , at the coaiiij ; election , of gaining a majority of voics . The Whi ^ rag , the Siockport Chronicle , bzti denominated the Chartists of- Stockport a mere nominal parry ; bin thr . y were going to prove whether it was so or not . It had beeu said they wero weak and powerless , bu :- thvy would test the truth for one > , and thuy (; he Chartist ?) wili have learnt in what their strength c 'iisis : ed , and what force they had , and wouid prove who were their real or professea friend ? , and would . u : a veto upon the faise dtlu ? iuus of many who professed to be the friends of the indusirious millioi :- ' .
( chc-eis)—and since that , thd factions ha-i b ^ a compelled to acknowledge them as a party . ( Cheers ) Th . 3 Chartists of Nqttingbani bro ' u ^ ht forward a liberal man as a candidate , bnt the Whi ^ s would not rapport him . Mr . Bairstow then gave a full explanation of the conduct of the Whigs during the election ' , and analyzed the priaciples of Mr . Larpeut , and remarked that , because the Whigs would not support the Chartists , they would not support them , anc the result was that the Conservative gained the seat . Since that event , the Whigs have denounced the Chartist leaders ^ 3 Torv Chartists ; the prfe ? has oj-en equally as severe in declamauon in wreikii !^ their vengeance , so much so , that when a . person uhu is said to be a Chaniat , attends a public meeting , ihd claims a fair and impartial hearing , if the the by
i 1 Whi ^ s have power either physical or Uioral means to prevent him from ubtainnig a hearing , they never hesitate to put it iu force . ( Hear , hear . ) The speaker commented upon the conduct of a Whig druggist , who hal pui a paper in his window , certifying ihat a ' , a j-ublic m-. e-. rug the evciiiug before , at which Yir . Barlow was pr :. ent , it wa- all but uiia .. 'im jusly passed , tnat Mr 15 a-ri : or . wa « a fi' and proper person to repre .- ^ ut th-e borough of S ' ockport a ' . v .

and prospsrity of the nation , yet on the working classes depended the existence of all other classes . Mr . Bairstow then drew a horrible p icture of the x \ ew Poor Law , and the three Devil Kings who sat at Somerset House , and asked whether thdy would have a man who supported them to represent their interest in Parliamaat . ( Loud shouts of " No . ") Then down , down with Cobden , and tha infernal New Poor Law ! ( Loud cheers . Several women" Wo won ' t have it . ") Mr . Bairstow tbeu commented on the proceedings at Manchester , in a strain of manly and forcible and cutting language , and concluded by protesting against the return of Mr . Cobden for " Stockport ; and on withdrawing was greeted with loud cheers . Mr . Isaac Johnson rose
and said he had been delighted with the santiments uttered by their candidate , and was glad to hear that the Chartists of Stockport had come to the resoiHtion to support neither party . He detested the New Poor Law Bill from the timo it was passed ; but-where was Maior Marsland when it passed 1 ( A voice— " In the House . ") Then ( sa , id tbe speaker ) he had given it his sxpport , and he thought ho deserved denouncing as well as Cobden , and hoped they would not return him to Parliament . A gentleman of the name of Williamson then stepped upon the platform to put a few questions to Mr . Bairstow . Mr . Williamson— ' * Sir , will you vote for a repeal of the Corn Lw , if returned to Parliament f" Mr . Bairstow said he deemed the Corn Law to be unjust
in . principle , oppressive aud injurious in its operation , and luinously fatal in its effact 3 . He detested it as a monopoly ; he woHld vote for its repeal when the working classes grasp the suffrage , with which to control the beutSts of such a ohange , oor . rir . ced as he was that , under the present limite'i sutfrage it n-.-, ver would , or could be repealedthat the working millions must first be enfranchised ere that law would be repealed . ( Loud cheering . ) When the People's Charter was madf the Jaw of the land , then , and not till then , would he vote for its repeal . ( Cheers . ) The result of its repeal at present would simply be a traiibftr ot the power of plunder from the hands of lamHords to the co : ton iorxU , money-mongers , and our
soidisnitt enterprising mauulac'jirers , whose nitere-st it was to carry labour to the ^ t ^ npest market , in order to ensure a flourishing truo-. always deducting the los-s in the price 3 obtain " -: from the wugps ofiheart'z&n—not from the proa '; - of tne prcjculati « g masrer . ( Loud and repeatea cJ ^ erfl ) Therefore , he was a Corn Law Repealer with tha Chatter in his hand . ( TreniendoM cheering . ) Mr . Wiiiiam-on—Sir , will you , if returned 10 Parliament , vote for the repea ' l of the New Poor Law ? Mr . Bairstow said he was , under all circumstances , a decided enemy to that Bili , and-wouiu vote fur its unconditional repeaj . ( Rapturous applause , winch rjntiEued -ome moments . ) Mr . Williamson—Sir , will you in Parliament vote for a Tcpea } of lhe law
ot primogeniture ? Mr . Bsirstow ? ani lie wis a decided enemy to the ia ' . v of primogeniture ; its tendency being to tmusinit tho property of tl ) lather ; o the eldest ton , leaving the veH ol the -ami !) , who had neither learned to toil liu ; - spin , hks " Solomon ' s lilies "— ( h ^ ir)—the oiieio tbe church , anouier to tho army , a third for the navy , and the last for tho law , thus form . ng a pe . snient swamp , prolific of no ; h : ug but paupers , sharpers , or cunning peculators . ( Great cheers and lajsjhter . ) Opposed to ali grievances as he was , lie would , therefore , vote for the annihilation of that master-piece of aristocratic abuse and monopoly . Mr . Williamson—Sir , will you vote for a repeal of the legislative union between Great Britain and Ireland ? Mr . Bairstoiv—On that subject there
existed much error and misapprehension . He was happy that ; he ^ . errJeman had put that question . Great prejudice existed among the Irish in that country , trom Daniel O'Coimell terming t ' liem Tory Chartists and Oran ^ enitn , < & . j . But whyabe : se the Chartists s * opposed to Repeal of the Union , until he had proved that they were either tbe only opponents of Repeal , or opponents at all ? "' ( Tremendous cheer ? . ) He told his followers to bludgeon tiitm , be auso they were not friend * to iUpeal . But why bludgeon tho Chartists any more than Lord John Russell , Lord Morpeth , and other ministerial lackeys , who aro as greatly opposed to 3 repral as the stanche . st Orangeman in the Un-. ted Kingdom , aud yet he coalesces with the same party , who refuse rtpi'al , and who , by his o \ vn reasonings , xre Urangemcn . ( Loud and continued chcerim ; . ) But it was a fonl and fouudationlej-s falsehood
that the Cnartists generally aud himself personally were opposed to a repeal of the Union . Due of the C 3 ruuiai principles of the Great Noth * n : Union , founded by the patriotic and martyred FV&rgiis O'Connor , was for a reptal of the Union . ( Enthusiastic applause . ) So much then for the Orange Chartist Fcargus O'Connor and his wild associates . ( Cheering renewed . ) He was a repealer of the Union . He wished Ireland to have an independent legislature suited to her wis-iie * . represents : ive oi her inhabitants , Catholic and Protestant alike , to see her a nation , not a province . Ho would vote lor a repeal of the legislative Union , disbelieving as he did thst its pn \ -ent aiiuators wisked not to tn ' c-ot their avowed vij--.-i . Y r . Wihiumson , —Sir , of
