, They talk of you desiring to plunder them , when they ! are gorged with plunder , to gain which thousands ef I . your countrynitu have been led to bleach in the sands j -of Esypfc , the Alps , in Spain , aud America , and the - ! enSrcifci of the people have been left at the feet of a ' plundering aristocracy . They have made offices -where j there wisnsne wantirg , merely to put their depend-: ents into , at the people ' s expence ; and it would take & ( pair cf cast-iron lungs to detail one-tenth of the wrongs ; they have itfiicted upon you . Tha corn laws have beea ' p ^ sed by them to keep up their rents . They have taken the church lands , the ctewn lands , and the common I lands , the property of the people to their own use . I They have made tha tenants of the deep their pro-{ perty , and th 3 fowia of the air must be their ' a also . ; The poor m&n in the deplh of winter , maybe his family I starving , if he ta& = 3 a putridge , or a hare , he ia conj Snei in a felon " 3 cell , and his family left to perish ' .

Simply by giving to each honest , ) nprisbt man a vote in tbe cboDsing the members ef the Executive of the couutry . This can only be done j by the People ' s Charter . ( Applause . ) Tell me not of j loppteg off this or that branch of the tree of corrupi tion , for the same energy would overthrow the whole . ' mass . The cry of the Charter is traversing far and ¦ wide . In old Caledonia , the land of his fatnere , it j was . bearing down befora it every trammel in its ! course ; the cry has Bone from moss to mountain and ' ¦ glee ; and , come weal come woe , they are determined ! to be free : wherever be hud been the cry for the
¦ ¦ . Charter had prevailed . Eo tad heard the tr , ide 3 of ! Manchester had nailed the banner of the Charter to ) their Rigs . Ireland also was proceeding la the glorious causa . This cry will soon have reached euch a force , 1 btfore -which faction must speediiy fly , never to return -The . only thing which can impede it are those partial i outbreaks which tbe people are led on to commit by want They have already done us much harm . Keep calm , and keep cosl : proceed for a short time longer ; with the saras determination you now have , and we ' will speedily sweep from before us the la&t remnant of ! tyranny and corruption Millions are watching the I Chartiats of England ; and if they fail in their attempt to be free , tbe chains of slavery will be rivetted there .

Mr . Campbell rose , and complimented in warm terms Mr . Holiday for bis lecture , and the people alBO for having the opportunity of hearing their cause so eloquently advocated . My friends , said be , our cause is rapidly progressing ; the spirit of liberty was going abroad , and he defied the power of any party to stop it . Tis true they may get hold of cur advocates , as they har « done with Mason and others , and imprison hundreds ef our best men as they have done before ; others will spring np to £ 11 their places , and will do so
till justice be meted out ti the people . The parsons have done great harm to the cause , by preaching to the poor , poverty in this life , and plum-pudding in tbs next ; but they are inconsistent ; they wish to ga to heaven themseWss , and are determined to have the plum-pudding here also . If their ways will get them to heavsn , it will make such a piace of it , that , for himself be BhouM not wish to go where they were , aad was determined to have the plum-pudding in this life , if be could get it .

We have only two parties in the state—the oppressor and the oppressed . We want a Parliament to grant us those rights we have been so long in agitation for . Oae faction which is expiring , has made a bluster in its dying moments ^ the ghost of that party has made % great noise , and has told the uremkr if they do not repeal the C ^ rn
