      Mabtlebone . — -A publio meeting of the parishioners was held in the workhouse yard , to consider the report of the Committees appointed to oppose the " Marylebone Parish Bill , " now before Parliament . After various speeches eulogistic of the committees , a resolution expressive of the confidence of the parishioners , and urging them to proceed with their labours , was about beingeubmitted , when Mr .

      is of opinion that the time of snob , committee men would be much more beneficially employed in agitating for the People ' s Charter , the bill in question being but one of a thousand other similar grievances whioh the Chartists would remedy when they are possessed of that political power which will enable them so to do .

The masters have found it to be absolutely impossible te get their pieces wove ai so unreasonable a low price as they offered , and offered too for the pnrpose of underselling those manufacturers who pay good wages ; and in order to realise their end they have resorted to the following expedient . They have already engaged an old foundry at Bolton-le-MooT , in Lancashire , to which they have transported a considerablenumber of bobbins , wheels , looms , jacquards , &o . and are now trying to gull the operatives by telling them they will be enabled to earn eighteen shillings per week upon their work , whilst the real fact is that their old weavers could

      not earn more than one half that sum , although they have received considerably higher wages than Messrs . W . Norton and Co . are attempting to give in Lancashire . The lowest sum which their old weavers have received being thirteen pence per dozen for two hundred jacquards , and fourteen pence per dozen for four hundred ; while at Bolton they are offering them but ninepence per dozen for the s&me goods . Potatoes and salt have long been said to be the hand-loom weaver ' s fare ; but if the above prices get fully established , it will only be that in v < -ry small quantities .

'" :: ' ¦ . ¦'' The valnation committee presented a report of which the following ia a copy : — " In pursuance of . tho resolution of the CpuBci ] , we have paid ail the claims upon the "valuation fund , except the sum of £ 500 , which was retained in hand |

      until the map of the township of Leeds should be completed , and which , when paid , will leave in the hands of the treasurer a balance of about £ 30- We have entered into an agreement with Messrs , Sharp , to revise and complete the valuation of the borough , on or before the 1 st of October next , in time for the use of the overseers in laying the November rate . The map of the township of Leeds is now ; nearly finished ; it does not , however , appear to your committee that ihe map will answer the purpose of the Council , as originally designedj when the map . and valuation of the borough was ordered , the alteration of the plan being caused by the difficulty of making it intelligible . . It , therefore , is , in the opinion of your committee , desirable that another map on a

      scale sufficiently large should be drawn , to contain the numbers of the houses corresponding to the book of reference and the names of the streets . This map we propose to have drawn on a- larger scale than the , one first proposed , and to divide it into wards , and lithograph it , 8 p that the inhabitants may , if they think proper , have copies of it . We have obtained an estimate of the supposed cost of this enlarged plan , andtbe lithographing thereof , and wa find both together will amount to the sum of £ 384 for the first hundred , and for each additional hundred the sum of £ 91 . These maps will contain the numbers of the houses and the names of the streets . The Iithogt aphing of this and the out-township maps is thought by your committee highly

      desirable for two important reasons . First , that the sale of the maps will probably repay the expences of drawing and lithographing the map of Leeds on an enlarged scale , and the lithographing the oattownshtp maps ; second , that the utility of the work will be much increased by enabling the members of the Council , churchwarden 8 , overseors , Buryeybrs , cocmissioners , and other public bodies and inhabitants of the borough , \ to possess a work so valuable for constant roference at a small price . It will be borne in mind that the scale of the enlarged maps is such as to admit of having laid down thereon main sewers , drains . crpKs drains , gas pipes , water pipes , water plugs , levels , and other similar information . " ' ' ' ¦ . ¦¦ . ¦ ¦ * .: ' ¦ . ' . ¦ ¦ ¦¦ ' ..:: . -. ' ¦ ,: ¦ ¦' . ' . '¦ . . ¦¦ . ' ,

      The report having been read , a motion was made by Mr . Aid .

This being the last notice , the Council broke up about a quarter past four o'clock .

The devils of the Con ference—Vincent , in particular—both in their meetings and at meetings of the Chartist Church , have poured out the venom of their poor wrath en me and your leaders . I can bear it . They ^ have acknowiedged our principles ; but to-morrow they are to make an attempt to get into the traces , and place us in the shafts ! But they shantl / Our meeting will be glorious on Monday , The Bradford delegates are fine fellows , This Sturge Conference is a remuster of tbe rump of the old Malthusian- London Working Man ' s Association . |

      Sturge is , as I long ago said , too good a man , but too weak ; he is led by those who surround him . He must throw them off , oir he must perish . They speak of another National Conference . Then , hurrah for our Bide ! I will spend my last farthing to make a fair representation of our party , when it , comes . You shall hear of the finest meeting ever held in Birmingham on Monday next .

      Mr .

He thanked them for the flattering reception he at all times receUed , and proceeded at great length to expose the many attempts made to gull the people . They had been , betrayed , because ; they were apt to place confidence in the professions of those who merely Wanted to use them for their own purposes . He then commented on the mariner in which the Whigs had falsified their many professions , and read a document which

      shewed ; the shameful amount paid for the support of ¦' - the Birmingham Police , which was nearly as much as was required to ktep up the whole police establishment in America . He then , exposed the various tricks and bloody wars instituted by the Whigs , as a proof of their retrenching propensities . Tbe Chartists had rallied for seyen years under the flag of justice arid equal rights . The name of the Charter had been the watchword which had enabled them to beat down all opposition , arid would they . now fcive up the name' under which they had rallied eo long ? r ^( loud sboHts of ¦ No , no , never , " and loud cheers ) . A Corifererice was then sitting in the town called together by Mr . Joseph

      Sturge . They had also a Conference elected by the people . There . were thirty Chartist delegates present , to , watch the proceedinga of the Conference and watch over the interests of the people , amongst whonfl was the excellent and honest president of the Executive , Mr , James Leach , one whom the gold of the people ' s enemiea could not purchase—( loud cheers ) . They had knocked down the " New Move ; " the " Fox and Goose Club , " and every other device of those who wanted to divide the people , and , with the blessing of God , they would also do away with the Complete Suffrage affair .- ^ doud cheers , >—and in doing so ^ not only would the people of Birmingham rejoice , but

      Glasgow , Manchester , Leeds , arid all parts of the country would triumph with them ; He then dwelt at great length on the great exertions which the men of Birmingham had made in the cause of liberty , and said Jbie had no doubt they would do their duty on the present occasion . He had witnessed a glorious display in Manchestei ; lately , at which there were upwards of half a million of human beings assembled to do honour to the memory of that noble of nature , the late lamented Henry Hunt , and he was confident that every one of them wpnld feel themselves disgracedi were they to give up . one jot of the Charter , even its name . ( Loud cheers . ) He had stood by the people for a longtime : he had done so

      without receiving or requiring a farthing from any man ; and no matter what they ' . did , he was resolved arid would never agree to go for anything short of the Charter he would not even give up the name—< hear , hear , and loud cheers . ) He then proceeded to explain the effect that would be produced by Peel ' s budget , arid wittily showed up the manner in whi ch the parties interested would object to it , and proved that the people were the actual payers of all iBdirect taxation , they having to pay 135 . 6 d , out of every pound of their hard earnings . Did they think that Mr . Sturge ' s plan would remove the present system ? —( no , no . ) It was said that the Chartists were the party that kept Sir .. Robert Peel in office . He denied it . No ; it was the Whigs , who refused to

      do justice to the people —( loud cheers . ) They might talk as they liked about thephysical-force Chartists , but he could point , with sorrow and pride , to the last year , during which the people of this country had eudured the most appalling misery and starvation ; yet they were not guilty of a single crime . What then would be the result if they had an honest parliament of their own choosing , with the comfort it would produce 1 After again reverting to Peel ' s Budget , and dwelling at great length on the course which the Chartists ought to pursue , he passed a high erilogium on Mr . James Leach for his services , and concluded by calling on them to rally round the Charter , as their only nope of seourity arid prosperity He resumed his seat amidst loud and long repeated cheering . V . ¦ .

      Mr . James Lbach wasthea loudly called for , and was received with loud cheers . He proceeded to give an account of the impositions and robberies practised towards the operatives of Lancashire by the manufacturers—some of the statements created a tremendous feeling of indignation towards those hypocrites who pretend to be the people ' s friends . Mr . -W ; D . Tayxor waa also loudly called for , and delivered a short address on the propriety of 8 taridirig firmly by the Charter . He was loudly cheered .
