      CABMSXS . —STATS OF PUBLIC FEELING—Ex-XHII 05 S OF IHBPZOPLB IK BEHALF OF THE IMCascerated Chaeiists . — During the past week , the meet intense anxiety has been " displayed by the worklug classes generally , for the faie of tbeii prosecuted Bed persecuted CbartUt brethren , who -were taking and expected to take their trial * under the Special CommisbJoes ia different parts of the cooctry . The Evening Star has been eaigerly locked after as the moat likely ¦ vehicle through which correct information is oonTeyed to the public . Parties have assembled each evening in different parto of the town to listen to the eontents of that independent and spirited journal , which bo well deserves tbe cardltl support of the working ^ re ** . being the only daily gsprr devoted to the prosperity 6 nd well-being of tie trcikicg classes , and opposed to

      the tyranny and oppression of the great and wealthy . We trust tha workicg classes "trill do all in their power to promote and extend the tile of so valnable an organ , for it is of the most paramount impariarce , that the Teal condition , feelings , wants , end wishes of the people should be made public , aDd the vices , fallacies , tyrannies , and oppressions of the great and powerful , ably exposed , and this is more necessuy when we consider that thepret g in general , is a vile sink of iniquity sad corruption , and the Etrvile tool of the factions Which support it Moreover a paper conducted with that talent tad fearless independence which the Evauvt / Star has hitherto displayed , is ¦ well calculated to give a proper tone and direction to the people's wilL The partial , uEjc&t , and sajupunary charge of Lord Afain-er , to the grad jury at Liverpool , was" heard with feelings

      of disgust and indignation , that the very judgment seat should be stained and poliuud by one placed there to juitly administer the law , ajid not to deliver siVly and nsjnsfc disquisitions on the politics of a party , taking carts to single out that party for destruction , by questioning their honesty and maligning their motives . The strange and unprecedented proceedings against ¦ William E iis at Stafford , in raking , up fresh evidence after the prosecution tad closed , and the defence made bad successfully established an alibi , which , without farther evidence , must fcave been fatal to a oonviction , ¦ was loudly and bitterly complained of ; while the able defence and triumphant acquittal of Cooper , were heard with feeling a c-f usmiEilt *! pleasure and delight It is eons : d- ? ed that Mr . O'Conncr and the other Chartists , against whom » true biii was found at Liverpool , did

      wisely in traverfiicg nntii next assize . This course ¦ will allow the agitated state of public feeling , arising out of vhe late outbreak , to subside into a c ~ lm , bo that more impartial jo ^ tlce may be done to those charged with conspiracy , on tha evidence of a vile miscreant , whese word » iil not be token by an unprejudiced jury . Moreover , this course will ¦ allow time for getting up able ana conclusive defences ; and enable the people to support their friends with that ability , which th-y so well deserve . Let the Chartists in every locality exert themselves to the ntmost cf their power , in getting up defence funds for the suppoi t cf those who have already suffered much in the righteous cause ; and , above all , do not allow th « widow ' s tears , nor the

      orphan's cries , to reproach you with neglect in performing so important a dnry . Let Committees and collectors he appointed in every place , where there is a Chartist Association ; and let the good work be immediately proceeded with ; perseverance , promptitude , and S 3 &I will secure complete success ; and you will bare the heartfelt satisfaction of knowing that you have nobly done your duty . There are few so well-calculated to perform this arduous duty as the females , and we were glad to lram that in Carlisle they had commenced operations , and were succeeding to a great extent . We trust this example wi « l tee followed in other places ; at the same time , it must no > for a moment damp the ardour ol the males , who ought to vie with Jbeir fair brethren ia the holy work . —Corr&spondeTd .
