P ., was called to tha chair , and the us \ i&l quack doetrinsa of the League / were dealt forth by ilessrs . VilHers and KickarUs , ii . P'a ., and a resolution of the same import was about being put to the meeting when Mr . Biuckmbre rose to move an amtuuBcnt ; this was the signal for the most discordant yeiling and cries of " turn him out , " to . ; the Chairman upon being appealed to , said Mr . Blackinore was out of order until the resolution bad been read . Mr . Blackmore bowed to this decision . The Chairman read the resolution , and Mr . Blackaiore moved as an amendment tbat they took into their consideration the proprietv
of Eemiing delegates to tne Birmingham Conference . The scene that ensued baffl-s ascription . At least a ( Uzenof the League assailed Mr . Bluckinore ; Kuff > Ridley coining to his assistance was immediately assailed by these well-dressed blackguards , and after a desperate resistance they were thrown over the balcony from the platform into the pit below . Huffy Ridley was atiuok by one of the platform gentlemen with a stick , and his eye blacked and face striousiy cut . Mr . BUckmore was also severely bruised . Dr . Black came forward ana deprecated such unmanly conduct . The chairman < JepTecatcii all violence , but thought Messrs . Ridley and Blackmore had brought it upon themselves . Ha declined putting their amendment , and the resolution was of course carried . After several long and heavy addresses , another resolution was put to the
meeting , wbtn Messrs . Blackmore and Ridley a ^ ain moved an amendment for the Charter , and gave ihu respectabjes a severe lashing far their b : ulai conduct , and were of courss beard with great impatinnce , though without physical violence being again employed against tbt-m . Mr . Spun from the gallery with « oasii ? erable energy supported the amendment , but ¦ was specdiiy cut short by tne chairman putting to the meeting , whsther they would hear him ,-which of course was carried iu the negative , not more ; han six Chartists buiiig present . The chairman again refused to put the amendment , and the meeting shortly afterwards separated , glorying in their brutal triumph and eulogizing tbeir ticket p ' an of rnJ mission , waich had enabled them to act the part of ruffians without immediately meeting with that justly-meiiteU retribution which mutt ultimately eneu « if they persist in such nnxoanly conduct . The retloubtabla Sidney Smith lectured on Friday evening , at the School-room , nnder Biahopscate Chapel ,
Bishopicat-e-street , and fearful of meeting with a justly-merited vengeance for hi * conduct on the preceding evening , the room was packed -with hired ruffians , boys , &c The meeting was announced for six o ' clock , a . time at wbich bat few of the working classes can attend , and shortly after that period Sydney surrounded by a host of Lsaguer * , took possession ol the platform , and Mr . Wiikinson , common councilman , was immediately moved into the chair \ rithout even the formality ol being seconded . Mr . Manti protested against this line of conduct , and lras about to move an amendment when he was seised upon by the respectables and thrown off the platform ; " his clothes b * ing literally torn from his back , a few friends having with great difficulty made their way ap to his assistance , a determined resistance was made , and . Mr . ilants was again plscsd upon the platform . During the struggle a mast « r baker conspicuous for tho size of his btdy tind thf BLaliowness of his brains , who appeared to act the

The cowards finding that about ten Chartists were . a match for their wholeforos persuaded their liberal chairman to send for the police , and the Chairman also . -stated 'that he would be generous enough to prosecute at his own expense any ¦ Chartist who attempted to express his disapprobation of their -unjust proeeediugs . Several policemen immediately made their appearance , and Mr . Mah'z and several other Chr . rtists were' hauled out by a private door into nn adjoining street , and then set -at'liberty ; ' . the cswards not daring to sustain
the chaive .. Sydney thinking himself triumphant immeciiatel f bei ? 3 n boasting that th 6 glorious victory they had . obtained on that amV the prgctniing eveninp , at tha Mechanics' Institution , over the miscresnt Chartists , would ensure them uninterrupted ' -ineitinas for the fu ' . iire . . But , . alas ' . 'for .- , the . fallacy of human hop .-s ; this was the signal for tremendous disapprobatiun ; and from that moment scarce one word of tha Uctiire could ' be heard beyond the ' precincts , of ' . the plarform . The CharfiBt party was mctnentarQy increasirg . and tbe whole time -was 6 c-unieii in cheering acl ccunter-cbteeriug from the respective parties .

L' > ach , ' a . t . a .-meetir < g . ''<>( South Lancashire delegates , to the following effect : " The Hull Chartists were'ibput to pass the Balance Shett in the month of July last , when Mr . Hill entered the room p . nd gut a stop to it . " Mr . Leach ha * been misinformed . The Balance Sheet - of last quarter never was submitted to . any general meeting of the . Charti ^ U of Hull ; if , therefore , the above statement haa rtference , as it appears to have
, to the gehertl body of our members , it is subatant'ally incerrect ; and I feel it to be my duty to call the attention of the gentleman who made the statement to that fact If , on tlie other haud , it has reference to the Councillors alone , I am given to understand that it is equally untrue . Mr , Robert Jackson , informs me that he was the person ( aud not Mr . Hill ) who brought that matter before the Council , and so far from it being " about to be pasaed , " an animated ; discussion was at that moment going on , and the Council cime at last to an unanimous vote to write Mr . Campbell for further information .
I conceive thnt I am acMihg correctly in laying the facts of the case thus ^ rt 1 fly beforo the public , leaving it to the general meeting . of eur Hiembers , wfciob . is called for UfcXtlloriiay , to acknowledge , as best suits them , the compiinient . which ' -Mr . Leach has paid them aa a . bovly ; conttnting myself witb observing that , in so far as 1 am concerned , nfaither Mr . Hill , Jlr . Leach , nor any other pirso 1 . ; , shall drngoon ma into the . entertainment or expression ' Of views not in accordance with a strict > ense of justice ; and from what I know of th ^ men of Hull , in n-ferenco to them I icbme to the same conclusion .

. JO THE EDITOR OF TUE > 0 KTHERiV STAR . SiK . —In the Sheffield Independent of lest .-Saturday , appeared a letter signed "John Marshall , " enquiring what hud btcotne of the monies coJltctstl and . sent to tbe Star office for the purpose of bringint ; th ° remains of . the martyred pajriot , Clajton , to Slilffi ^ td , but which , owing to circumstauctai ; needless to be repeated here , were not applied to ihe purpose for which Xhe > had been collectocl . Tne object of the writer of the letter has evidently been to bring odium . ' upon , the-. Chartists in generii , and the Nerlhetn Star in particular , by causing the uuthiiikiiig . to believe that the monies , in queatioii had been wrongfully appropriated ; soch was ' undoubtedly his object , other wise he would have written to you , instead <> f to that bitter foe of CbnTtism , the conductor of the independent . I believe application has bsen made to Sir . Ardill to « ive up the money ' to- / Mm Clayton , the widow of the deceased , but the money
having been entrusted to Mr . A . for a special purpose , that gentleman has ... clearly no authority to give , it up for any ' other purpose without the previous kanctien ol the parties who contributed to it . To bring this matter to an early settlement , I would auggest the propriety of the parties who in ' Shtffleld and elsewhere gave any donation to tne above monies , meeting in . their respective localities to decide by resolution what ia to be done with the monies in question , and each locality to immediately ebmmnnicate its resolution to the Nor / hern Star . It I may be permitted to say a word as to the purpose to which the monies 3 honld be applied , I would respectfully suggest tbat they be given to the widow , Mrs . Ciayton , who . is , I belieyei in anything but prosperous circumstances , has many claims -in point of family , kc , on the kindness of her fritnds , and is every wy worthy of eytry assistance that can be rendered her . . ¦"' . . •' . ¦; YoUr ' s , respectfully , GKOIlSE JULiA . \ HaENEI .

THE N 0 RT 3 LANCASHIRE DELEQATES TO THE MEMBERS OF THE ; NATIONAL CHABTER ASSOCIATIOIT , THE : EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE , AND TO MFU HILL , EDITOR OF THE " NOKTHKRX STAR . " . ; ^ rother Ch artists , —Deeply impressed with the necessity of Union at ail times , but more especially at the present important crisis , when Government perse cutien ia endeavouring to crush our niovetuent by pouncing on those who have nobly stood forward in the advocacy of our just claims ; and when prvfessuig friends , assuminijispecious names , sporting the varied colours of-the cameleon , and resorting to all sorts of wily tricks to ; entr . ip us . in order that we may serve their base and sordid purposes ; we deem it . necessary to offer a few sober remarks ou the very unpleasau" ; clifterrnefcs that now esiat at head quaTtsrs , trustiae
that we may be able by tliese roeacs to allay those differences , which , in our opinion , ( judging from the appearance they now wftar : ) threaten to impair , if not destroy , our moral power and 'influence .. ' We have witnessed with sorrow and regret ninny times the paper carfi ; eta of men professing our principles , and as often have hoped that what we wctb then reading would be the last , that surely a time would arrive when we could dgieeio differ o : i minor ^ natters , wiihout ehteriiig into a system of criiiiinatiDg and recriuiidating through . the columns ; of a newspaper , thereby retarding the progress of our own niovement , ; aud giving our enemies an opportunity of ixui ' . ing over eur weakness ; . bat , alas ! we have Wcu . wiierab ^ y disatippointed ; aud it is asain our paiiful lot to see tha columna of the Northern Star afforiU-. r- taattrials for our enemies to revel in , "to our own dtitructimr .
Having carefully examined tbe statements , pro . and con ., thai have appeared , we are ob ' . ifed to say thit the conduct-of the Executive , in misapplying the funds if the Association , and departing frojn tlie rules of cbt Organizition , > 3 far from siitifaetory ; and we > ar ^ s also compeHed to say that tke language of Mr . Hill in s * r . di . eg the subject before the public , is calculated ' to injure the feeling * of the Execntive , and th ' erdb ' y cause , rancour and ill-feeling to exist i ' o . our ranks . j We ara rteciileriiy of opinion that Mr . Hill , as a member of the National Charter Association , b : id a p « r . ev-t right to call the anerition of his brother' . '' . Chart . ist e t- > " tbe Bitahca Sheet , autl also to offer his opinion thuryou -, nevertheless it would have bteu more satibfactc . ry to us to have seen it couched in miifier language : Itiriii admonition rather than harsh rebuke we co-Jsider would have . been better calculated to effect the object desirdd ; therefore we cannot but attach-blaiuu to both .
• For expressing the above opiniuu we insan . no offoiico to either Mr . llill or the meu ' . bbrs of the Executive , our ssle aim beiu ^ to heal if possible the breach thus made : and iu order to take from our oneniies a , oUanco of using weapons of our own forgip ? agai ; : st us . we are porfectly willing to bury in oblivion tho p . ist , and endeavour to concentrate an imperishable union of energy , fortitude , and peraeverauce , in oi \ ler t ? free ourselves and our fellow . slaves iroia the tram : uels of oppressiou and misrule . We have avoided aoing into the ch&rees in "< . le . ' . aU , . -to
prevent foel beina ; added to tho 'fire , for / we hava leiVrrieil b 7 sa . fl experiftnee , thatv .-hen once an affair of this oi any other descviption is complained of , parties ms-. Uliing in it have , by critisisir . g and picking , uiiavoidably protracted the difference , and at l ( -nj ; th made it a diffiouli task to allay the mad passions thus roused . It is really sickening to be perpi-tully at war anionsat ourselves ; it ia e ouijh to drive sUrling patriots , and Useful members from cur ranks ; it is therefore essenti-jl to smother those ' differences at ence . Lit « s proSt by the : past , and work f »> r the future wish indomitable courage , perseverance and energy . :
In conclusion , we Would respectfully sugs-st to the Editor of the Northern Slar to prevent the pagvs of that paper from referring aay more to this stffii / . r , that whenever he feels it bis duty to refer to the cons ' . uot of his brother Chartista in ¦ whatever capacity they may be placed , to ao convey his opinions as to give the least offence * ' . ' - ¦'¦' :-. . . .. . ;'¦¦¦ Tothe Members of the Executive we would also say , adhere strictly to tbe rules of the organisation . Place ' youselvea in a position that ydurbrethreu may not have cause to complain . To tho General C ' . 'uncillors we wouldpeint their attention to the rul ^ s and advise them to insist on the membprs in . their soveraT localities , a rig lit adherence to the sime , that tho Executive may not have to cosiplain of the scanty means at Lhsir
diaposal to ptrfect and mature our rOKRanisation . To our brother rasmbers we would say forcet the past ; let it go by as a passingbracza ; let no trait in yotircomluctsiva a handla to our enemies ; but let ^ it be ssich that neither new move , new new / nova , Tory , or C 6 ri :-Lnvf Repealer , may point the finger of reproach , end say there goes a Chartist ; lot our motto be " Union , " our watchword Love , T . nth ouv guide , and our Charter the object in view ' ¦ ¦ ; we may then bid defiance to Wbij ; gism and Toryism , New Moves , and New Nev Moves . Their combined forces cinnt baffle our efforts . The banner o ! liberty will pvoudly flutter in the bretz ^ , despotisni will perfsh , and on its ashes will tread . a ireQ and a happy people .

MR . HILL TO THE NORTH LANGASIHRE DELEGATES . Geentlemen , —I insert your letter to tnyself ami others most willingly . If the excellent and patriot-c spJyit manifested by ygur letter pervaded all parties , thfcre would be an end of that rile system of crimination and . ' . recrimination ; slander arid retort , olot and counter plot , which ypi . so justly deplore as the disgraie of ^ . our ruovemenfc , and aa hurtful to its interests . I fully reciprocate your sentiuient , that " Union , necessary at all .-limes , -is ... more ' . especially " so at the present importaut crisis , when Govoninjunt pers ^ ontion is endeavouring to crush our movement . " Bu- , while I admit with you tho nencBsity of union , I must also uphold that which is even still more dear and Valuable— principle , and ' truth : and
, honesty . TJiese aro the first " matters . " to be looked for , and , in their absence , all others are valuelo 39 , or mischievous ; and , while I bow with all deference to ' -your mild ceiisu . , I -must still think that , in the matter of these ' . ' very unpleasant , differences" I should have shewn a great luck . of all these , had I hot taken precisely the course I have taken , and even if ill consequences should result therefrom , which 1 cannotanticipate , thecensure . 'belongs notriat all to me , who have done no more than was required . by duty . .. : ¦ -. ' . . The second parsgraph of your letter , seems to have been written under , and is , at all events calculated to engender , a gr ^ ap misconception . It talks a bout our "agreeing to differ upon minor matters . ' " Now if the question wer ^ one of opinion or minor matters , I . would think myself deserving of a much deeper
censure than tho one contained in your letter if . I could at such a time have introduced it , JBiit this is not the fact . The question is not of opinion , but of principle ; not of a ' ¦ ¦ minor matter , but of one absolutely vital to our cause . It is no less a question than whether we , as a body , bo honest in the avowal of our priuciples , or whether we prop . und them facciousiy in . opposition to the ruling powor , while : we oursolves pay no regitrd Xo thtin . The matter of " confidence ¦ ' or " no confiilence" in the particular men whose' conduct ha 3 given rise to the discussion ' forms in reality no part of the question . It . is simply a question oi' whether . the avowed
principles of our association are to be recoxirzedby us «* an associ-ilion or not . f he Star is the onW lnedium through which the membfers can commumcate witheach other , and hence its columus are of neces .-ify the channel through which the iiiyestigauon- is . conducted . This will appear the more especially necessary whbnyouremeniber , a 5 injubticetoalt 8 ide 3 youBiiould , that , "kind admonition" in the most full meaning of those words has been had . recourse to , as far back as Juiy last , npon the very same subject , but without producing any oilier effect than a moro open and undisguised . deSaiice of our principles and ruleu ; which the parties ventured to assure us they expected to find " hailed by the yvhole country with delight" ! ¦ •¦ . ' ¦; .
Icaiiuot agree irith you in thinking that tho terms in which my opinion ha 3 been expressed caii be at all / airjy designated ' ' harsh rebuke . " . The fact thai " kind admoui ^ iou " . auniinistx'red in the kindest oi all forms , by private , remonstrance produced only an aggravation of the evil is proof enough that it Was high timefbr tke pe . pl « to speak ous ; I called their attention to the facts that they might do so , and 1 did no more . ' It' 1 have bven compelled to the use of terms unpltarin ^ to f . bf ; ExecuJiy ' e ,-yoa should remember thai it was not "in sending the subject before the public , " but iii reply to the abuse ot the Executive for the periormancc of my " very unpleasant" duty . No mfs'ake could be greater tli ^ ri that which you make when you say that : — " The language of Mr ; Hill in sending the subj-ct bafere tbe public , is calculated to injure the feelings of tho Executive , and thereby cause rancour and . 'Ill-feeling , to sxist in our racks . ' .
I cannot permit this statsment inyour welliiitenr tioned letter to pass without convincing you' of Its being undeserved , by bringiugragain before you the exact" langaage "' in which I did " send the subject before the country . " I first called attention to the matter in the Northern Star of Saturday , the 12 th of Nbrember ; and "I did it in these word 3 i—

due , arid according such censure or admonition as may servo to keep , every foot- in the strait and straight path . If the peopl ' a have a fault , it'is-that ' they arc frequently disposed to be tooremss in ' surveillance ; whereby small deviations from ri ght pract j ee , too often grow at length into frightfal aberrations from principle , which compel them to cast off parties who with better watching might have long continued to- be good and nseful servants . We have neither time nor space this week for the directing of attention to many items in this document which we think specially deserving of regard . Whether w « may do so next week or not , we trust that the people will at all events make themselves intimately .
acquainted with it ; that ; hey will read ' it carefully along with tho plan of organization , and obserra strictly tho degree of faithfulness with which the fund . « passing through the hands of their acknowledged servants have been appropriated and expendt-d in accordance with its . provisions . We think the Executive : have a right to require this of them ; it is wfil and necessary to exnibit palpably tlio coiitvast between the mode of management adopted in like matters by the factions over whom the people have no control , and by their own appointed and retfponsibla : public . servaiits .

' anything in it at all" calculated to iwjuro the fef 1 ] ii £ s of tho ExecntiTe' '; and remembirthat evory word I have since said about it has been forced from me by the abiisivo violence of the Executive , ' because o ! niv having thus simply called public attention to the - . matter .. ' Gentlemen , —I trust you now see that your kind s' ! t ;« cstion to roe to perform my duty in the least pos ^ iblv offensive nuimcr has been abundantly anticipated bv rho iu tHU very matter . I : was not
only , my . " right" as a Councillor ot ' tho Association , butniy duty as a friend to the cause , and an honest Chartist , to enforce couipliance with the rules and principles of the Association , as far as my power went . I saw them grossly violated by tho Executive ; I joined my fellow Connrallorji , who first called my attention t <> it . in a " kind admonition , " Which we tcnt / a them private ? ^ , simply because I was < lesirou 3 to-avoid " criminating through the columns of » newspaper , thereby retarding tho progress of out movement , and giving our enemies an opportunity of exultine over our weakness .

For the same reasons , I did all I possibly cauld to prevent others who had taken up tho tbalter from niakiiig it public and to induce to take a / like course of " kind" and private " admonition "; and when at last i finding all this unavailing , I fouud my duty to " send , the subject before the public" imperative , I f-id it precisely in the terms which I have quoted abovefrom the Star .. ; . v Gentlemen , I have done my duty . You have also done yours . Your '' kind almonition" I receive even thankfully ; because though-given under misconceptkm it was kindly meant .

Newton Heath . —Some timo ago the overseers of this ,, place-, called a meeting of the ratepayers to elect a number of persons to act as special constables under the New Police Act . Rut the ratepayers passed a resolution to the efiiibt , that the township was in ho danger , and had burthens enough to . bear without finding men to go into other parts of tho country , and return cripples , and become chargeable to the township perhaps , for life . The resolution for the non-oleotion of constables was carried unanimously , Tho overseer took the news of tho meeting to Air . Maude at the New Bailey , ho fl ; iw in a rago , and said , as the ratepayers hai refused to appoint them , the overseer must give him the list-, and he would appoint them himself . But after referring to the Act he found that it did not
vest such power in him , and ho was sorry for it ; but he would write to the Secretary of State . upon the subject . But it did not end here . Mr . ' -Ratter ,-the Coroner , recotntnended the overseers to call another meeting , and if the ratepayers refused to appoint the requisite number of constables , they might serve them with a writ of mandamu ? . In accordance with this recommendation , the overseers called another meeting of the ratepayers on Tuesday evoninglast . When the business was brought forward , the ratepayers carried a resolution " that the meeting be adjourned until Easter Monday next . " This was move than . the oyer ? fer 3 expected ; but the election of specials is put off until that time , and there is no doubt , but if they attempt thiei same business again , that , a further adjournment of the question will be the oonSOoucuca . ¦ ¦ ..
