DUNDEE . ' , GLORIOUS TRIUMPH OF PRINCIPLE : OVE& DELUSION . ' Ths anti-Corn Law gentlemen , in aeords ^ ce with the uctics of the party throughout the country , on hearing the result of Tamworth Bob ' s fi 7 e mauths ' deliberation , reso \ ved t-o get up a ^ ublic mcerin * to d enounce the sli . iiDgseals , to pinion the House of Commons against it , and nw . aorialise her Majesty for the dismiss ^ of the present Ministry . They presented a requisition to the Provost , signed by about 2 oO merchants , manufacturers , and s-hopkeepers , and he fixed the meeting to ba held en Monday , the 28131 ^ ., at one p . m ., on the Magdalen "Yit-d Green . ^^ " ^— ^ ¦ —i ^^^^—^»^^ w ^^^^ - ^^^— ¦ iip ¦ **™^^"" JM ' ^* M *^
On the W&teaiday previous , the Secretary of the Democratic "Csmcil , received a letter from the Secretory of th « Complete Suffrage Association , suggesr : ng a inference betvreen the Council and the Coiemiitee of the 3 atter body , in order to come to an unarstnous resolntios on the Suffrage , as they understood that that question -would corse before the ¦ meeting at the conclusion of thd Corn Latv business . The-canncil had previously resolved to ni ^ ve amendments to any resolution thas might be submitted to thesaeeting , pledging tham to &gi : at « in any Tray ou the "Corn Laws ; and , at their meeting oa Friday ¦ evtning , preparatory to the conference "rrith the Xi Starve party , " they resolved to alhere to their former decision ; aad five members vrero appointed to
-confer with the other committee . On their meeting , = the Secretary of the Complete Suffrage A ^ sosiatioa -said thev wished to know what course the Chartists intended to pursue on the Suffrage being bronght before the meeting . He was informed that they in that master would be guided by circumstances ;—that in the event of a motion being submitted for complete or universal suffrage , it -would be met by an amendment for the Charter , a- ? d that the Chartists would not agree to any reso ' . u ion for any thing less A copy of a resolution was submitted to them which Tr- ^ reived the approbation of almost al : tr . e members of the Complete Suffrage Comcritue . This matter , then , seemed to be settled , bnt then came the question of questions . "Hawdoyouintend toactonthe Corn Law question P asked the Complete Suffrage Patriots . (?) There was the " rub . " They were told tbe course intended to be pursued . by the council—a course ¦ which the Sturgites considered to be " very unwise ,
"very ill-judged , and calculated to lr . jnre the cause of Chartism . " The deputation of course gare au opposite opinion ; it wa 3 policy they had successfully pursued with great advantage to their cause , as was evidenced by the formation of Complete Suffrage . Associations among the middl p clas-. es , who would not have gone that length had it- not been for the opposition given to the anti-Corn Law movement by the Chartists . Tho deputation wished one of the other party to moTe , second , or support the resolution , which was of a scrt agreed to by boih , parties ; bat cone being present who would undertake to do this , it was agreed that six of each Committee should meet on Saturday evening , to make the final arrangements . Tcey met as agreed upon ; bat instead of settling about speakers , the time was sprnt in discussing the policy of opposing the resolutions en the Corn Laws . The Chartists still
adhering to their former resolre , the mcsnng broke-up . in- Complete Suffrage men declaring that the conference would do more harm than good , ps they thought it would break up their association . The greatest excitement prevailed on Monday ; by twelve o ' clock , the streets were thronged . with working men , hurrying to the scene of action ; a fixed determination to stand by the right visible on their honest open countenances . By one o ' clock , 16 , 000 or 18 , 000 perso ' ns were © ongregated round the hustings . Edwabd Baxter , Esq ., was unanimously called to the chair . He opened the business by commenting on the conduct of magistrates , their reiu ^ al to preside , and the holding of the meeting on the Magdalen Yard Gre ^ " » . instead of the High-street , during this inclement men of the year . He contrasted-the conduct k . Provost Lawson , the present chiefmagistrate , in refusing to preside over such aa important meeting of the whole inhabitants as the
present convened by himself , and the conduct of the Provosts , Hackney and Johnstone , who , when they convened a portion of the inhabitants ocly presided ¦ a * the meetings . He read a letter he had received from ihe Town Clerk , stating that the magisirates ^ hs . d learned that other business than that mentioned in the requisition , was to bo brought before the meeting , and that an efih-y of Sir Robert Peel was to be paraded through the streets , and afterwards burned in the Market-place , and expressing . their disapproval of such proceedings , ana holding him responsible for the peace of the town . He had returned for answer that he knew nothing of the efngy nntil that moment ; that he saw it in the street , and that the magistrates shonld now , as always , be prepared to preserve the peace—( cheers ) . He then stated the business of the meeting , enjoining them to preserve order , and promised a fair hearing to all who wished to address the meeting .
Mr . Alexander Ealsox , manufacturer , in a spe-r ih composed of the usual anti-Corn Law arguments , moved the following resolution : — ' ¦ That t *» * meeting considers the sliding Ecale of dnties on foreign grain , proposed by Sir Robert Peel , £ 3 an insult and a mockery to tbe patiert-and longsnfferiEg people ; and this met ting bslieves that the Government vroald not have proposed such a measure Tiri not the patience of the people , "cuier their "wrongs , indue : d tbe aristocracy to believe that they "would submit to anytting however oppressive and unjust . " Thi 3 was seconded by W . G . Baxter , Esq ., who apologised for the absence of his brother , through indisposition , who intended to second the resolution . Mr . Johk Dc 5 Cas stated that he cordially agreed with the latter part of the resolution—the patieEce of the people had emboldened others than the aristocracy to oppress ihem . The resolution was passed unanimously .
The Rev . Mr . GilfillaiIj in one of the most ludicrous and bombastic speeches we ever had the misfortune to listen to , moved the following resolution . " That this meeting declares its conviction that tbe essential food of man is exempt , by the laws of nature and Provident , from all liability to restrkt . c-n or taxation ; and that every Jntsrferenr a "wifi its free exchange for the honest industry of the labouring ciasrss is immoral and irreligious . " The Rev . Mr . Spesce briefly seconded the resolution , which was ? sreed to . ¦ - At this stage of the proceedings Daniel McEwen , Esn ., writer , was appointed clerk to the meeting . " xhomas Sac ^ -debs , Esq ., merchant , in moving the next resolution , declared his conviction that justice would never be done to the people without a change in the representative system of the country . The resolntion was as follows : —
" Test a memorial to the Queen cud a petition to Parlismtnt be TTeseiit ^ d from tbis meeting , in accordance "with these resolutions , the memorial to the Queen praying that her Majesty will dismiss from her Councils , her present Ministers as altogether incompetent and unwilling to conduct tbe sffafrs of this great nation en the principles of justice and humanity /' Seconded by D . McEwex , Esq ., who declared that he was as great a Reformer as any man present , yet . refused ro officiate as clerk , because he anticipated an amendment being proposed . David retired amid the disapprobation of the meeting .
Mr . Jobs Du . ncan then came forward , and wasreceiTed with loud cheers . He reviewed the speeches of the previous speakers , especia'ly the effusions of the parsons , smidf-t loud bursts of applause . He characterised them as hypocrites , for ¦• tending aloof from the agitation for the rights of the people , yet joining tie manufacturers in their cry for cheap bread . He eamesily called upon the people" to stand firm to their principles , and concluded by moving , the following amendment to the resolution : — . " That it ia the opinion of this meeting that the many evils tf TFiiich the -wording dashes of Britain -have to complain arise principally from cLles liglilatioii , and Trill continue to tadst , in one form or another , nntil
fh « whole Tn * ift population aboTa twenty-one years of age , be in possession of tbe right of electing men to represent them in the House of Commons , according to the plan of representation denominated the People ' s Charter ; and , being convinced that the repeal of any , tad law "would fail to remedy the existing distress —( so long as the power of law making rests in the hands cf the middle and higher classes alone)—and that it would , bs a profligate waste of the mians and energies of the people , and a mockery of their miseries to agitate for anjlhing short of the fnl ] measure of their rights , hereby resolve to ag itite for the enactment into law of the People ' s Charter , and to give ns countenance or support to any movement for s * less measure of justice . "
< Great cheering . ) Mr . W . Davidson seconded the amendment . He urged the people to be firm and rely upon themselves , s-s they could expect no support from either Whigs r Tories . Mr . Petebkis supported the amendment . The CnAiBius then took the vote , when the hand 3 of the vast multitude were raised for the amendment , and few , very few indeed , against it . The Chairman declared the amendment carried by & large majority ; we should say by at least fifty to one . His announcement of the vote was received with rapturous applause , which lasted for some minute * . The Cuajp . xak wished to know if Mr . Duncan intended to embody the resolution in & petition . Mr . Dckcax said he bad no objection , and moved a resolution accordingly . :.
The anti-Corn Law party then insisted that " the spirit of all the resolutions should be embraced in the petition . This was objected 10 by the Chartists . After some discussion , Mr . Duncan withdrew his BJ&tion , and Mr . Peterkiu , jnn ., moved the adoption ' of a petition embracing the spirit of all the resolution ? , which was seconded by Mr . Alex . Young . - Mr-TnoaAS Akdsbsos moved that there be no petition , ivhi oh was seconded by Mr . J . M'Phessojt Tba inttfioc if as supported by Messrs . Wisutos and Ht-siEB

On being put to the vote , the amendment vra ^ , curried by a large majority . A clerk being required to draw up t ' ae BviBfttes of the meeting , Mr . John Hunter '< aid Mrs James M'Pherson were severally prop ^ Bed . On a vote being taken Mr . James M'Pher ^ on was elected by a large majority . After a hearty vote of flanks to the Chairman for his impartial conduct in . tho chair , and three cheers for the Charter , the nr . eefcing quietly dispersed . This was truly tb ;< j most important meeting held in Dundee since the commencement of our agitation .
On its decision depended the existence of Chartism ia this quarter , and it has really decided this . It has strengthened us , secured our supremacy as the leading and only political party , and verified the prediction of the Complete Suffrage seers , for it has aot only destroyed them , but laid the last clod on the grave of the poor " corn craiks . " Add Dundee to the list of victories . Right has obtained over might ; let those who have not yet met the -delnders _ follow our example . On our return from the meeting , we beheld the foolish display of the burning of Peel ' s efigy . Faugh ! Is this the " respectable" mode of agitation ?

SINCERITY OF THE ANTI-CORN LAW LEAGUE MEN IN THEIR ADVOCACY OF CHARTIST PRINCIPLES . Evert week , and almost every day , is now big with events tending to prove that our advioe to the people to " take care of themselves" in the proposed and eagerly sought for alliance of their new friends , tho C ^ rn Law repealing "Extension " men , was founded on a clear and right view of the character of thesa worthies .
In out last , we noticed a great public meeting at Wolverhampton , in which it appeared from the face of the resolutions , of tbe speeches , and of the whole proceedings , that " the entire animal" had been bolted without the least wincing . The Charter was acknowledged in the £ rst r-solution to be the first thing necessary to be gone for , as a means whereby relief from unjust legislation was to be had . The resolution was moved by one of their first-rate men ; it contained no reference to any distinct agitation for Corn Law Repeal note , but referred to the Charter as the thing to be obtained . Here it is : —
" That the distress under which the people of this town 8 id district are now—and have been for to long suffering—is caused by the Iaw 3 which restrict the importation of food ; that the ministerial proposal for the amendment of thr ~ e laws adds insult to injury by its mockery of relief ; that the certauitv of such amendment being carried by the majority oi the members of the present House of Cjmmons , is a proof of the necessity of putting an end to the : e and other evils of class legislation , by such extension of the franchise as shall secure to all ranks of the people that full , fair , and free representation , as defined in the People ' s Charter , to which on the principles of the constitution they are entitled . " The only other resolution , a memorial to the Queen , was of a precisely similar character ,
praying : — " Tnat , as Tour petitioners have been denied justice by the House of Commons as at present constituted , they beg that your Majesty will take such measures as shall secure to your pc ople a full , fair , and free representation , a 3 define i by the People ' s Charter . " This memorial was seconded by a Mr . Keitle ; and a very pretty Chartist kettle he boiled . We have not read a more excellent Chartist speech this long time than than this same Mr . Kettle's speech , as reported in the " Plague ' s" organ , The Staffordshire Examiner , save that it smacks a Uetle too strongly of Bajllie Jarvet ' s " het poker . " That from a newly converted Whig is a thing of course ; and it was beside so nicely "bevilledoff" that it
might pass , upon the whole , for a very capital initiatory Whig-Chartist introduction to the school of peaceful agitation . Take a sample of it from the Plague's organ : — "From all he had witnessed during his time , he was now convinced that the representative system was defective ; and that nothing but a full , fair , and free representation of the people could lead them to hope for any justice . The legislative aid executive in this country were based upon the principle of aristocracy , and that alone . Labour was the only property not recognised by the constitution . The principle of aristocracy had been tried and found wanting , The intelligence of the a ^ e had condemned it . The aristocracy had cried " no
surrender . Let the people shout back again ' . ' to the principle of aristocracy no quarter" —( loud chesrs . ) The repea of the Corn Law would give them the key of the cupboard ; but Universal Suffrage would give them the key of the whole house—( great cheering ) . They had that day fully and fairly taken up that question ; and it would be for them to say whether thay were to go on with it—( cheers , and crie 3 of " yes , yes ") . Let them remember that they had tried the constitution , and the pinch-point must come soon . They all felt that they were upon the eve of great events —( hear , hear ) . ; - Men had begun to contemplate things that were not talked about . He was not an advocate for physical force ; but there must be a mighty change , or the bonds of society will be broken asunder . "
Now we ask gravely if a fairer seeming could be asked for by the people than that which this meeting exhibits of a hearty co-operation of the " plague" men with the Chartists , a determined effort for " full , fair , and free representation" 1 So adroitly were all things managed that Duffy who was there said that : — " He and his brother Chartists had come there that day determined , if any trickery had been practised , to move an amendment : but when he saw
men coming out honestly and justly , as the gentlemen around him had done , to obtain their rights then he would say all opposition ought to cease— to be buried and forgotten for ever . He would say , let them be peaceable , loyal , and just , above all thing 3 ; and constitutionally attend to their own rights . Let them go forth , and they would obtain the Charter . _ Les every man pre 3 ent join the Charter Association . Ha was proud to see the unanimity that prevailed amongst the midd ^ and working classes of this town . "
Certainly if anything betoken unanimity , and be calculated to give the appearance of sincerity to the proceedings of the " Plague" men , this meeting did do so . What is the fact ? What were its results ? Did it end in the whole bevy of " respectable" middle class " Plague" men going down to tho Chartist rooms and enrolling their names as members f Weie the subscription lists to all the valuable public Chartist machinery for keeping up the agitation for , and ultimately securing "fall , free , and fair representation , as denned by the
People ' s Charter , " immediately swelled out with the contributions of their new-born allies , that the mutual desire might be speedily accomplished ? Not a bit of it ! It ended in Mr . Kettle ' s going down to the Chartist Room to tell the people honestly that bis speech in the afternoon had been "all gammon ; " that notwithstanding his hatred of class legislation , and his anxiety for tho principles of the Charter , he had no purpose to have any other connection with the Chartists than to use them as tools for the carrying of Corn Law Repeal Hear him , as reported by the "Plague ' s" organ : —
" Mr . Kettle proceeded to state that he was reluctantly compelled to harbour such misgivings as to prevent his formally joining the National Charter Association , untilhe should be better satisfied as to its Executive . He told them that he held in his hand a publication bearing the authority ofFeargus O'Connor , which convinced him that that individual was an enemy to free trade , and oue by , or with whom , no Corn Law Repealer , desiring to adopt the Charter as a means to an end , cosld consent to be led or allied . Mr . Kettle then proceeded to read and comment on several of the extracts from the

Northern Star , which will be found in our leading article ; and concluded by declaring that , as he could not consent to attach himself to a party by whose reoognised heads the motives and efforts of the free traders were abused , and by whom free trade itself wa ^ s condemned , be must receive an unequivocal as iurance that the Chartists bound themselves to no men ( Feargus O'Connor , or any one else , ) who pursued that course ; but that , on the con trary , they renounced the influence of - . all Buch persons , before he ( Mr . Kettle ) would complete the compact at issue . **
Now , whether is this fellow a greater knave or fool ! He professeB to seek the Charter as a means to xa end ; that end being the repeal of the Corn Laws ; he avows his conviction that the Corn Laws cannot be repealed until the people have that "full , free , and fair representation , as defined by the People ' s Charter , to which they are entitled by the Constitution ; " he avows hiB conviction that the Corn Laws produce all the distress of the country ; that they must be repealed , and that they never can be repealed until the Charter has been got ; and yet he refuses to go for the Charter
b : : ause Fear . gus O'Connor , and the Northern Star , and seme other parties , have denounced the " Plague" as insincere in their agitation ! C ^ u ld he have furnished better evidence of that insincerity ; at all events as far as he is concerned ? If the Char t er bo the only means for Repealing the Corn Laws , and if the Repeal of the Corn Laws be the one great thing wanted , what need he care about any mischeivous influence of O'Connor and the Northern Slar ! Surely the whole League , with its mighty array of " influence" and talent , and wealth , and its many , very many "best possible
instructors , " are more than sufficient to counterbalance any nugatory influence which might be exercised by one man and one newspaper ! Where then is the mighty boggle ? The rogues know that tfiey dont mean to go for the Charter at all ; that they mean only , if possible , to " gammon the flits , " and they know that while the influence of Fealgus and the Star continues they can ' t do it ; they will be too closely watched ! Henco the organ of this Mr . Kettle , the "Plague" m ? i—the Staffordshire
Examiner , —in the very same paper which reports this meeting , occupies four moital columns , exactly oneseventh part of his whole pnpet , with a laboured and most villanously Jesuitical justification of the course pursued by Mr . Kettle , desii , aed to quieten the consciences of the more honest of their followers , and to persuade them that though they voted for the Charter , and introduced it into their memorial to gull the Chartists ; that though they have : —
"Apparently ( the italics are his own ) extended the right hand of political fellowship and bent the kn : 3 of noliticr obedience to the d ' tciples and paid agents of the monopoly-supporting Feargus O'Connor—to ibe apnrovers of the blood-spilling Frost , Williams , and ooncs , and to the perpetrators of the Tory-fermentc i disturbances at anti-Cjrn Law meetings . * * * * ' * * The ration ? and consistent Reformers of this borough are no more Chartists or less resolute Com Law Repealers than ever th : y were . "
Now , then , Chartists ! what say you to your new allies \ Did we not tell you that they were " pigs with soaped tails" ? ! Wolverhampton is not the only instance of this honourable dealing of the new converts to Chartism and "Complete Suffrage . " At Hudderdield , in like manner , they sought to carry with them popular support by uniting the Suffrage with the Corn Law question , in precisely like manner—as a means t an end . Their sincerity here , as at Wolverhampton , appears in its true light when viewed in connection with the following placard , plentifully distr ibuted on the day of meetirjg : — '
" Corn Law Repkaleps . —Whatever resolutions you adopt this evening , respecting the Suffrage , take care that " ^ ou do not let that ruestion take the place of Frcs " xia . de and Cheap juread . If you should sink agitation for the Repeal of the Bread Tax , in agitation for the extension of the Suffrage , that Tax , with all its disastrous consequences , must continue for Lome years . But if you can honestly and cordially unite for an agitation of the two objects distinct , you are sure to succeed in getting rid of the bread tax iu a very short time . "
However , the Huddersfield lads met them well and bravely ; their " Complete Suffrage" humbug , with which they hoped to get in the thin end pLthe wedge , was rightly shivered by Clayton , with his amendment"That itisthe-cpiniooofthismeeting , thattOBecure a real , 'full , free , and fair representation of tke wholo praple in the Commons' House of Parliament , * tha / yihale of the principles contained in the People's CSjWg& ^ iz : Universal Suffrage , Vote by Ballot , AS ^ pS&liaments , No Property Qualification , Paymettfdf'Members , and Electoral Districts , must become the law 6 F the land , the whole of which are requisite and necessrry to secure a real and efficient repretentatiou . "
The people showed that this was their opinion by leaving the humbugs with just four hands to clap each other , and keep out the cold for their " Complete Suffrage" move . The thin end of the wedge having br 3 n thus disposed of , Clayton again let fall the sledge-hammer of Chartism upon the thick end by mcvhig , as an amendment to Mr . Copstack ' s motion for a continuance of tha Corn Law agitation , "That the agitation for the whole Charter take precedence of all other agitations . " This floored the hypocrites at once , and left honesty triumphant . So let it be in every place and our cause is safe , and liberty Ehall shortly greet us with her invigorating smile .
We are happy to perceive that our counsels have not been slighted . The people have , in almost every place , recovered the false step they made in one or two places , of joining with the traitors . Tne Merthyr Tydvil people , at a full meeting , held on Monday evening , resolved"That every approach towards an union with the Corn Law League must be regarded as a direct step towards a betrayal of the Chartist cause ; and that every public meeting which neglects to affirm tho adoption of the People ' s Charter as the only remedy for the distresses of the people must be considered aT compromising the great right of the working classes to a share in the making of the laws . "
This is the true position for the people ; and the only safe one . Atd though in one or two places the English Charti 3 tB have suffered their national failing of good nature and unsuspeotingness to betray them half into the toils , the Scotch lads are " wide awake " to it . All glory to the men of Dundee ! The " canny £ »* ts " have done it well I We . have seldom bees mora delighted than we were on reading the report which appears in our present paper of the utter overthrow , discomfiture , and annihilation of the " corn craiks" by the "bonnie lads" of Dundee . They were , indeed , well mat ! Every fold of the foul serpent was laid open—every trick
foiled ; a more perfect triumph could not have been obtained ; nor do we ever remember to have seen a display of more wily and well arranged tactics than those of the Anti-corn Law men on this occasion . They first felt their way through the medium of their friends , the " complete suffragists" —they then tried •" the artful dodge" of moving resolutions merely de . nunciatory of the evils of bad legislation , without pledging even to any future line of conduct , in the hope of getting the blind side of the meeting by embodying , not the resolutions , bnt tbe spirit of the resolutions , in the memorialthe formal voice of the meeting ; which would have
enabled them to breathe into those resolutions the foul ipirit of patchwork , in the form of an exclusive or unduly prominent prayer for Corn Law Repeal . It was a deep trick , well played , and cleverly stopped . We fear nothing , for the people with so much quickness and good sense about them , as this and the Huddersfield meeting shew . We defy any set of sophists , or tricksters in the world , now . to " palaver" them cut of their
watchfulness . They will keep to the right road , and they will compel all travellers to go with them or stand out of the way .

A few remarks upon the proceedings at the late meeting in Puradise-square , are necessary ; at that meeting Messrs . O / tley and Gill supported a resolution for Universal suffrage and the billot ; I seconded an amendment for the Charter , whole and entire , which , thanks to the sound principle and sterling honesty of the people was . Carried by a ; triumphant majority . By way ef excusing themselves for the false position they hail taken up , Messrs . Otley and Gill stated that the resolution which they support 2 d had been promiied support by myself and others , and that we afterwards retracted that '" promise ; that they , Messrs : Otley and Gill being honourable men , valuing their reputation and their word , would not do the same , hence they supported the resolution . Now hear the facts of the
Jt is true that on the Tuesday eve preceding the meeting in the Square , a hasty and reluctant assent was given by certain members of the council to the said resolution ; but the folly of the Btep we ? seen almost as soon as taken , and at a general meeting of the council held next day , it was resolved that the sense of the Association at large should be taken that evening , and that , in the interim , the hasty and ill-advised decision of the previous evening should be annulled . A meeting of members and friends of the Association took place in the evening , at which : there could not have been less than five hundred persons present , when , with the exception of three or four individuals , the satd resolution was unanimously condemned , and It vr ? - resolved that an amendment for the whole Charter should be proposed whenever the meeting ( nut then announced ) should take place .
MessrB . Otley and Gill condemn the council for having first promised a certain thing and then retracting their promise . The doctrine of these gentlemen is , that the council haying done a certain thing , no mattor whether ; right or -wrongj the Association is bound to submit ; a doctrine more subversive of the •' sovereignty of the peeple , " was certainly never yet broached by Whig or Tory . Suppose we bad a House of Commons elected by ^ UntTewal Suffrage , who , in ^ their legislative capacity were guilty of some erroneous or tyranical act , a&cording to Messrs . Otley and Gill the people are bound
to submit because they have elected that House of Commons . I think different ; my creed is , that the people can never be divested , or divest themselves of their natural and rightfui boyereignty , and that when their representatives fail to do right it is the prerogative of the people to over-rule their decision . Acting upon these principles , the Council submitted their vote to the Association ; by it that vote was condemned . The course , to be pursued was marked out by the Association ; and , iu taking the part myself and others did take in the Squarq , we but obeyed the voice , and carried out the will of . the peoi la .
Messr& Otley and Gill would fain have had you believe that it was a high sense of honour on their part that compelled them to support the Whig-concocted resolution ; to believo them , they expected help instead of opposition from myself and those who acted with ma Sweet innocents ! What are the facts of the
case ? . . .. . . '¦ . _ ¦ ' . '¦ . ¦'• , '¦ ¦;¦ -: ¦•¦¦ . ; - "• ¦ .. ¦¦ - . ;¦ . . On Wednesday , the 16 thj ( two" days before the meeting , ) by half-past two o'clock ^ Mr . Otley ! ia < l placed in his hands a letter stating that the Council had annulled the vote of the preceding evening , and that the whole matter would be brought before the Association . I In the letter Mr . O . was requested to Bummou his Council or Association for that ovening , to know the decision of the Assoeiation meeting in Fig-tree Lane . Here was due notice given to ilr . Otley thatthe Vote of the previous . evening had been rescinded by the Council , and that tke Association would probably do tue

same . What < Vid lit . Otley do ? Did he come to the meeting in Fi ^ -trei Lane , to learn tb . 9 sentiments of the people ? N , o ; but a meeting was held at tfn ¦ ' *• l ? dYL ~ tical Insf , ' cuie , " and . theparties there oFwrnblecl were , by Meters . Otley , Gill , and Cc , pledged to support the humb'jg resolution . Rat I maintain , that independent of the decision of t' ue Association , the council was not bound to abide by its original vote ; that vote was agreed to upon certain conditions , the conditions were , th-it the Com L * w Repealersj as a body , should giye their support to the resolution ; was those conditions fulfilled ? NO ! True the resolution was supported by Mr . Palfreyman , ( where , —aye where is Holbevry ?)— -by the illustrious Mr . Wardle , by the patriotic Mri . Harvey , of Chartist
Camp-meeting notoriety , who has been " all things by turns and nothing long , " and by certain "go-betweens , " to wit , Mr . "Niiw-move" Allen and Co . But / did Mr . Ibbetaon and tho other , " great guus" of tie Anti-Corn Law men promise their support of the resolution ? ( Mr . Ibfeettson will tell you , you are " top ignorant for the suffrage . '' i Did the body of the Corn L » wRepealers promise their support- ' ? . Did , or will , their organ the Independmt , give the resolution its support ? No ! no ; Hvre then tho original conditions were not complied with . Messrs ptley sind Gill knew this ; what humbug then on their part it was to talk their high-flown stuff about "honour" and " reputation , " when , as their acts testify they wera consigning you over to the Whi ^ s , who would deceivo and betray yon again , as once too often tUey have done before .
I have now a few words with Mr . Gill particularly ! To believe this geutleraan he is the ino 3 t disinterested of politicians , aud altogether above the thought of living by ejitation , or accepting of anythics ; from the people in return for his very important service ? . I tip not think this gentleman worth any recrimination on my part , or 1 might show that Mr . Gill ' s services have not been , and are hot of that disinterested character he would fain have tho public believe .. ; : Mr . Gill thought prop : r to denounce me a 3 being the paid tool of Feargus O'Connor . On the spot , and before he had time even to turn round , I challenged him to meet me at the close of the business for which the nic jting had been convened , and there make good , if he could , bis insulting calumny ; but , where was he when called for ? The bird was flown ; like some tcrial sprite he bad vanished ! "Tell it not in Gath , " the valiant denunciater had prudently withdrawn by a back dosr .
My friends , it is quite true , that I am employed by Mr . O'Connor as reporter , or , cprrespondent for the Northern Star , an occupation of wbich I am not at al ' ashamed . I maintain I have as much right t > receive payment in return for my services , as any cutler has to receive hia wages atthe close of his week's work . What soit of a tool I am to Mr . O'Connor , I leave yen to judge , when I solemnly assure you tbit during the six months , I have filled the situation , I at present hold , I have not received a single letter , or Bolitary line of a letter from Mr . O'Connor . Mr . Gill has boasted , in his private coteries , of what he could do—and what he would do ; that he could make me a pill I would not swallow , < fec . &c . I now tell him that my public and private character will both dare and bear comparison with his , I repeat my challenge , if he has any charges to prefer against me , let him : meet me in Paradise Square , and there , before the great body of the people will-1 confront him .
Mr . Otley , too , has made " more free than welcome ' with my name ; but , wk : r in his generatiou than his fiend Mr . Gill , he bas confined his slanderous statements to his own shop . I know that he has repeatedly slandered me as being , or having been " in the pay of the Tories . " At last I have the means of naming time and place-In his own shop , en Tuesday , the 16 th of February , he there state J , in the presence of the under-named persons , "That Harney , and other Chartist leaders , were , or had been , in the pay of the Tories ; that he strongly suspected O'Connor was in their pay ; and always had suspected it since he wrote his letters ' to the Irish Landlords . " . The persons who will testify to the foregoing , are Messrs . Clarkson arid Fry , of Sheffield , and Mr . Wm . Jones , the North-Riding Lecturer . I shall bs very brief with Mr . Ofcley ; I defy him to prove the truth of his dirty calumny .
Let me whisper a word of c * iutipu to Mr . Otley . If his contemptib . e ciy— " in the pay of the Tories" is continued to be raised against honest men , it may be that the parties raising that cry , will themselves be suspected by the people of being in the pay of the Whigsr Brother Democrats , whyam I slandered as being " in the pay of the Tories ? " Because I will not do the pirty work of tho Whige . Why am I deuounccd ph being the " paid tool of Feargus O'Connor ? " Because I will not 13 the " tool" of the hnttibugs who would sell you to the bloodiest and most fc \ pociitical of factions that ever cursed a country with their existence .
Friends and Brother Chartists the foregoing will have shown you that whilo the blowspf faction are seemingly aimed at me , they are intended to strike down one higher and of more importance to the cause than myself ; it is your incorruptible , unflinching champion O'Connor , whom these fa stipnists would destroy . Thank God they will miserably fail . But " to be fore warned is to bo fore-armed . " Can these men be Chartists who would destroy hiia who has braved the storm of persecution , and resisted every saduction to betray yon ? No , brothers , no ; his enemies and denunciators are not to be trusted , they are Whiggish to the heirts * core .
Look zt the Independent of Saturday last ; see the contempt with which those who really representfedyou at tho Paradise Square meeting are treated ! while Mister ^ ^ Otley and Mister Gill are held up as the leaders of " the intelligent divieion of the Chartists of Sheffield . " I wish these gentlemen ( the aforesaid Misters ) jpy of tiie raptures they must feel in the embrace cf their new " doxy , " the loathsome old hag , Whiggery .. , ' . ' . . . " /' .. ' ¦¦' . ¦ . / /' . ' -. ; . ; Bother democrats , from the first day I set foot in
Shemeld , to the present hour , my destruction has been sought by the faction meeting at the Whig tt&p , alias the Political Institute I have tried concession and conciliation too long . Henceforth , I treat them as ( what I take them tp be ) enemies of the cause and of myself . With my past public life , and my every act and word , since I became a resident in Sheffield , to testify to my integrity , I hurl defiance in their teeth , and rely with full confidence upon the support of the people , fu whose service ! have struggled and suffered , whoso cause I have never betrayed .
To conclude , never m the annals of our movement stood Cbaiciim in the proud position it now occupies ; but beware , lest this seeming hour of our triumph should be the hour of our fall . The middle class are becoming convexts to our principles . Good . But , c 2 e that they become real , not sham converts . If they propose to go with you for one jot less than the whole Charter , have' nothing to .: do with them . I they swallow the whole Charter , but make it a secondary object to the Corn Law Repeal , have nothing to do with them . If in joining you fpi' the Chaiterj they tell you it
is necessary . to get -rid . of your present leaders , " haTa nothing to do with them . If they are honest they wi 1 join you fPr the whole Charter —^ they will consent to make it the one object of agitation , as a means to an end—and , lastly , they will be content to fight under those who have been elected the leaders pf the people . The middle clan are powerless without us . The question then is , shall we put forth our giant strength merely to Serve the interests of a class , or to wrest by one God-like effort the " rights of man , " from those whose empire is built on the " wrongs of man . " Can you hesitate ? No .
Men of the wprking class , ycinr delivery is in your own hands—the freedom cr slavery of millions yet unborn hanga upon your breath . By every principle of virtue , by all your hatred of slavery , by all your hopes of freedom , by all your love of country and children , I invoke yau to be firm , unflinching—in short , to do your duty . For myself 1 nail the flag of " No Surrender '' to the inast , and though the good ship Damocicxy should sink beneath the fire of open enemies and treacherous friends , my last cry , ringing above the waves of popular delusion should still be " Vive , vive laCfiarte !"
I am . Brother Democrats , ¦ ; Faithfully , yours , George Julian Harney Sheffield , Feb . 22 nd , 1842 .
