THE QUESTION OF MACHINERY . The 13 the perplexeri This is the puzzler ! It wDl find all their work , befora it i 3 fully arranged sad rertled . However the present race of states-3 BEH nay ealenl&ts on keiBg able io pro-ride for , or sisre off , the evil hour it threatens , it will upset all their calculations and thwart all their measures There is scarcely a man of the present day that < kre tackle the question . ATI , almost , seem afraid fifit . They see it working the greatest of revolutions
etagiEgj ^ ompletely , the entire relations of classes ; and they dare not interfere to guide its operations ! They see ii inverting the order of nature , reducing u dvuEation" to barbarous savagism ; and they dare not even attempt io regulate its workings .- Nay , ihey seem afraid even of asceriaining what its former effects have been J They apparently dread Jhe making of themselves acquainted with the extent of the changes in the position and condition of entire classes that it has caused !
And yet sneb an investigation is imperatively needed . It is the first step necessary to be taken before vre can form a correct idea of the manner in wfcieii the question Ehould be dealt with . In the abssre of correct data , no correct opinion can be formed ; nor can legislation be safely attempted . It ii dear that we cannot longer avoid dealingwith the natter . The evib which the present application of Machinery inS-ct are too many and too dire to be longer slaved off . Interference is inevitable ! The nice has come when a searching inquiry as to the combined effects of it 3 operations upon all classes XE 5 T bs had . It cannot longer b 6 delayed . IJ has been delayed too long ; until it has assumed list shape tiat forbids further procrastination . -
The people are especially interested in the instituting and proseenfeig of -such inquiry . A collection of facs on which to ground well-devised measures of regulation are needed . They can only is procured by the means here indicated . A Committee of practical men , of all classes and all paties , ready to hear ail classes aad ail parties , and to jadgs of the weight ssd importance of the BphuoBsaitd testimony of all that present themselves for examination , 13 the only mode of arriving at the truth . Have we learned common sense enough to ask for , and procure , the appointment of nth Committee ! If not , the old adage that u Expeneace mske 3 fools wise" has no truth in it !

BTJSDSRSFXBU ) . — PflrLOSOPHlCiL Hall . —A Public Meeting , wnrened by the eouetables , in compliance wirh a requisition , signed by forty of the principal shopkeepers of the town , was holden on Tuesday night last , for " the purpose of taking into consideration the existing distress , and for devising means for its removal . " The large Hall wa 3 crowded to excess j not less then 2 , 000 persons being present . Mr . James Shaw was called to the Chair . The following gentlemen had been invited to attend : —Rev . Joseph Bateman , Vicar ; Mr . Frederick Schwann , merchant ; Mr . Stocks , gent . ; Mr . Moor , postmaster ; W . Williams , woolstapler ; Benjamin Lockwood , snrgeon ; J . Brook , woolstapler j Mr , Joseph Mooney . primer ; Mr .

Lloyd Jones , London ; and Mr . Isaac Ironsides , Sheffield . The meeting , taken altogether , was one of the most interesting we ever witnessed . Many and powerful were the remarks which fell from the various speakers . The following are the resoJations which were carried by an overwhelming majority— "That no empire , ancient or modern , ever possessed the same amount of surplus means to ensure permanent progressive prosperity without retrogresson , or what is technically called bad times , as the British Empire has secured within itself at the present period . "
That the mass of the people of any nation , and especially the producers of wealth , never suffered so much , even when possessing only half the amonnt of these national means , to ensure good times to all , and of course prevent bad times to any , as the masses of the industrious now experience throughout Great Britain and Ireland . " " That the British Parliament possesses the power , at any time , to terminate for ever this most unjust and grievous condition of the population of our country , and to set an example which must be speedily followed by other nations , by which the new scientific power of production may be made to ensure the permanent prosperity of all Governments and people , without any iDJury , but with great benefit , to every rank and
da's . " *• That this most beneficial change can be effected by the Government making simple common sense arrangements , to properly educate , and wisely employ , all the people who require the one or the other , and that this most desirable change may be now immediately effected by oar Government passing effective lawa to establish the unemployed upon the laud , under arrangements that will the most economically employ , and , at the same time , will practically educate the children of the now unemployed , in order to make them good , industrious , and valuable subjects . " " That this change may be so
directed that the proportions of land , of mines , and minerals , of all building materials , and of every trade and manufacture in the kingdom , as well a& all capitalists , and every part of the population shall be permanently and essentially benefited . " " That the petition , memorial , and address , now read , be adopted , * that the petition to the House of Peers be presented by Lord Wharncliffa ; to the House of Commons by W . R . O . Stansfield , Esq ., and the memorial and address to the Queen by Robert Owes , Esq . " A vote of thanks was then unanimously given to the chairman , and the meeting separated .
Os Fridat , a meeting of the inhabitants in vestry was called by the overseers , to be heW at the Pack Horse Inn , at two o ' clock , for the puppose of preparing a list of names of persons liable to serve as constables . A list of 120 was required . Mr . L . Pitkefcly was called to the chair . Mr . J . Hobson immediately rose and moved an adjournment to ^ i gbi o ' clock in the evening , considering as he did that that time would be more convenient for the masses who were interested , to attend . The motion was carried , and the Hall of Science appointed as the next place of meeting . At the adjourned meeting a list of names were proposed by Mr . Hobson , and seconded by Mr . Thurgarland , which was passed unanimously .

HOUSE OF COMMONS , —Wednesda y , Feb 22 Tae first order of the day was tbe consideration of Mr . Liddell ' s Personation of Voter ' s Bi . 'l in committee . It was suggested that it ought to form a portion of the Government Registration of Voters Bill , and some conversation arose on the propriety of including Ireland in the measure . Mr . Liddell declined to do so ; but Sir James Graham expressed his opinion that tbe measure should apply geuerally to the United Kingdom , and also stated one or two objections to tbe details of the bill , especially the taking a par ? y accused of personation into custody for twelve hours , in order to compel him to prove his identity . Ultimately the bill was postponed , on Sir James Graham's suggestion , till after the second reading of ibe Registration Bill .
The Forged Exchequer Bills' Bill was read a third time , after some disous 3 ion as to the case of a particular sufferer . The Coroner ' s Inquests Bill was also read a third time . The House rose at half-past six .
Thursda y ^ Feb . 23 . The Housa met a * , the usual hour , and some petitions were presented . Mr . S . Ceawpobd postponed the motion of which he had given notice , respecting the representation of the people and the . duration of Parliaments , until Thnrsday , the 9 ; h of March . In reply to a question from Mr . Wallace , Lord Ashley said that he thought it wonld be j extremely desirable that the Government should undertake to introduce a measure upon the subject of tbe Truck system . He had not , however , communicated with the Government on the matter ; and if they were not prepared to propose any measure to the House he should himself introduce a Bill upon the subject .
POOR LAWS . Mr . WALTER then rose to propose the following resolutions , of which he had given notice : — " That in a document intituled , * Measures submitted by the Poor Law Commissioners to his Majesty ' s Ministers , ' appear the following passages : — ' That at any time after the passsing of this Act , the Board of Control shall have power , by an order , with euch exception as shall be thought necessary , to disallow the continuance of relief to tbe indigent , the aged , and the impotent , in any other mode than in a workhouse , regulated in such manner as by the aforesaid Board of Control sb . all be determined . The power of
the Commissioners would be to reduce allowances , I but not to enlarge them . After this has been accomplished , orders may be sent forth directing that after such a day all out-door relief should be given in kind ; that after such another period ic should be gradually diminished in quantity , until that mode of relief was extinguished . . ^ Brom the first ^ thfirelief should be altered in qnlfity , coarse brggmpread being substituted for white ; and , conctirfeHplrwitb these measure as to the out-door poor , a gradual reduction should be made in the diet of the in-door poor , and strict regulations enforced . ' That these recommendations , applicable alike to every class of

* 5 ? ° ? T > - an (! enjoining an indiscriminate reduction ot tlieir pnysioal comforts to tne lowest ; endurable point , are shown ,, by the subsequent orders and practice of the Poer Law Commissioners , to form the real though anaroyed basis of the present system Ja k . ^ 1 ? liet ; That the spring already caused by their partial enforcement , and the tfZ L ««^ door relief in spite of them still administered , show their provisions to have fh ! off « ° ? C 5 eT ^ 1 and impracticable . Th-fc the attempted substitution of punishment for legal relief has more and more tended to irritate and dishearten the poor , to cheek industry , to increase crime , and to encourage various kinds of tyranny , without even the proposed compensation of
reducing the expenses of the ratepayers . That this House think it therefore expedient to demaud such a re-construction of the existing system as shall make it conformable to Christianity , souad policy ; and the ancient constitution of this realm . " Tne Hon . Member could have wished that it had fallen to the lot of more able parties to bring forward a question of such importance ; he could have desired thai ministers should have taken a more constitutional view of this subject , for he had a sincere desire that they should bring forward measures which were calculated to endear them to the people . Had there , he Would asfe . been any satisfactory good temper or greater adherence of the humbler classes to their employers shown Bince this cruel law
was invented ! Certainly not—( hear , hear ) . They were now in the ninth year since the first attack was made against the old poor-law—a law originating with one of the greatest Sovereigns , and that a female , that this country ever knew , whose object it was to sustain the great mass of the people against hereditary oppression , and who , by trusting herself and her throne to the support of the people , not to famil y retainers , set the whole world at defianoe . ( Hear , hear . ) That poor-law the present law depressed . It affected the agricultural interests , and also that of the manufacturers . In consequence of this attempt to subvert the basis of humau society , every institution in the empire must ultimately sink . It had been usual in the practice
of legislation , when through the lapse of time an old law had failed in its application to alter , to restore , to reform that law , but not to destroy it . But what had been the case here ! They had destroyed the old law , and had substituted for it an invention mw to history—an invention which in its principles and us details was alike distasteful . That class whi < -h had hitherto discharged the duties of parochial officers had been laid aside , and new terms had been incroductd and guardians had been appointed who were guardana in tbe same sense of iho word as the guardirng appointed by the Spaniards for the Peruvians ; and he would refer the House to Sheridan ' s description of them , aad of the manner in whioh they performed their functions . The papers which he held in his hand authorised him in making that
assertion . The authorities had been afraid that the public ehould ' take cognizance of their deeds , and as a prooofof that he would refer to the quotation from the memorandum of the Commissioners , alluded to in his resolutions . This confidential communicatn-n was followed by another , which fixed the maximum ofconsumption for the poor , and gave the local officers a discretion to reduce their food below the maximum , if it could be done . That was horrible enough , but something even worse emanated from the first Report of the Central Board . Mr . Sturges Bourne , Mr . Senior , and four others made a report , which contained several recommendations and suggestions of a tyrannical and uncorstitutional nature , and in those recommendations and suggestions they had tho origin of tha Bill itself . Great stress had been laid on the first fabrication of this
commission ; but before a single witness had been examined , all these gentlemen gave their opionion ihat something of an impressive character should be enforced agaiu 8 fc the poor . Mr . Owon , of Bridgewater , said it was a bill ot'iudiccment against all the poor of England . Did the poor deserve to be legislated against in this manner ? Ought the ; to be subjected to the cruelty of the Central Board ? Ho held in his hand an account of the dietary of a Union in which not a single ounce of fresh meat was allowed from the beginning of the year to the end . The only allowance was five ounces of salt meat on the
Sunday . He was not in the habit ot' attending the meetings of guardians ; but , on a recent occasion , being requested to represent the case of a man and his wife and five children , ha . attended tor that purpose . Relief had already been refused , on the ground that the wife had practised some imposition upon a benevolent lady in the neighbourhood . The husband , by the acknowledgment of two medical officers , laboured under an incurable pulmonary complaint ; he bore a good character . A doubt arose in his mind as to the truth of the charge brought against the wife . On making inquiry into the faots , he ( Mr . Walter ) received from the lady an assurance that nothing like what had beeu alleged had taken place . Yet he in vain attempted to induce tho guardians to grantout-door relief . Was it right , in such cases , there should be no appeal , except an appeal to the Board at Somerset House ? It was useless to detail all the casas of this kind that
might be well authenticated ; there was not a single evil , to which the poor were subjacted , that had not been aggravated by this system . He deprecated so much of the time of the House being taken up with the discussions upon such subjects as the conduct and proclamations of the Governor-General of India , instead of upon matters so vitally important as the present system of the Poor Laws , on which this House was as well qualified to declare its opinion as tbe immortal Dake on the subject of war . He proceeded to show that the evidence by which the Poor Law system was first passed , was got up by invidious practices . If there was any man who conceived thai he was boundHo support this law , because he had , on its introduction , pledged himself to that effect , he
( Mr . Walter ) asked such a man whether , atier the experience which nine years had given of the evila of the system , he would step forward on bohalf of the continuation of those evils . He begged such a Member to pause—to retrace his steps . What , he would as-k , was the origin of the Anti Corn Law League I It was , he would tell them , suggested by a preceding league against the poor of England , whose food was | to be deteriorated in quality aud diminished in quantity . —( Hear . ) Let them ameliorate the condition , of the poor , and they would diminish the public agitation . He called upon the Legislature , which had improved the state of the negro —who could npw , it was stated ,: drive his gig —to endeavour to alleviate ths condition of the
freelabour artisan of England , whom tho existing Poor Law crushed to the eartn . If they could not give bin ? his cottage and his piece of laud , which tho negro possessed , they could at least put an end ti > the necessity imposed upon him of selling every article he posmato of those vast gaols the union workhouses ; if they sessedin order toqualify himself for becoming aaiacould not give him his champagne , they mi ^ ht at least give him the cheap , wholesome , and national baverage of beer . It was not , perhaps , yes too late for them to retrace their steps . Ho ft . lt strongly convinced that not only upon that , but upon other subjects , which kept the country in a fermeat , that every object might be compassed , and easily compassed , if Hon . Gentlemen would but turn their thoughts in earnest io those subjects , rather than
waste their time ia struggling . 'for political ascendancy— ( hear , hear . ) If he were told that such a result wad desirable but unattainable , he would quote , in reply , those words of Mr . Burke : — " I know it is common for gentlemen to say that such and such things are perfectly right , and very desirable ; but that , unfortunately , they are not practicable . Oh , no , Sir , things which are not practicable are not desirable . There is nothing in . the world really beneficial that does not lie within the reach of an informed understanding and a welldirected pursuit . " With that passage be should conclude , leaving the resolution in the hands of the House . Mr . Ferrand seconded the motion . Tho question having been put from the Chair ,
Mr . Walter agaiu rose . Hon . fllemberj had asked him where he got certain information from to which he had aliudod . He had received it from a person who requested that his name might uot be personally giveu . Sir J . Graham was in hopes , when the Hon . Member rose fosr the second time , that he was about to supply a most important omission . Ia his speech he had made an omission that was somewhat startling ; he had read extracts from a document which he had declared to be confidential , and when he rose a second time he ( Bir James Graham ) was in hopes he was going to show how he became possessed of it , but nothing was less satisfactory than his explanation . Upon a former occasion the Hod . Gentleman had asked him if he recollected
these documents , and upon that occasion be said he did not , but Finoe then he hau some indistinct recollection that some ' such document existed , aud he thought he could inform the House how that was the case . In , 1832 , Lord Grey ' s Government appointed a Commission to inquire into the condition of the labouring poor , with a view to amend the hw , and the Hon . Member had mentioned to the House the names of some of the most eminent individuals forming that commission—the Bishops of London aud Chester , Mr . Sturges Bourne and others , whose names were a sufficient guarantee to the House of the beneficent character of the Commission—( hear , hear . ) The Hon . Member had eaid that a particular document was of a cor fid . ent . ial nature—that it emanated from the Commission , and was submitted to Lord Grey'B Cabinet .
Mr . Walter observed that he had not said so , but the Right Hon . Bart . hfid . Sir J . GiwHAM believed it was in the recollection of the House when he asserted that the Hon . Member had said he w ^ s in possession of a confidential communication—( hear , hear ) . Now he ( Sir James Graham ) coul < i tell tha House the preoise circumstances under- which that document came into the Hon . Member's possession —( hear , hear ) . He had understood the Hon . Gentleman to say that it was a confidential communication ; but whether he said so or ne ' e it was certain that it was confidential . This Coaaussioa having prosecuted iheir iuqnvrv , made

" referenda were prepared from the report . Th * Hon . Gentleman said that this document was never i signed ; it was true , ic was not denied by the Commissioners . He believed that ; those heads were prepared by the professional gentlemen employed by tbe Commissioners in drawing up their report . He believed those heads were not known to the Commissioners , but were drawn up by the professional gentlemen merely for the consideration of the Government . He ( Sir J . G . ) was told that of this
document not more than twenty copies were printed . Th& Hon . Gentleman was very unfortunate in not having been present in the House daring the last session , when the Poor Law , in all its bearings , was largely discussed . ( " No , '' from Capt . Pechell ) . Why he thought every thing except the Gilbert Unions was settled to the satisfaction of the Gallant Captain . The Hon . Gentleman appeared to imagine that the House was pledged to the Poor law . He ( Sir James Graham ) did not rest at all on any opinions which had been announced by the Hon . Gentlemen on either side of that House , he was willing to rest the measure upon their practical knowledge and experience of the bad and good in the working of the system —( hear , hear ) .

THE FORTHCOMING TRIALS . TO THE EDrTOH OF THE JTOBTHERJT STAK . Sir — Having heard that the Attorney-General has signified his wish to some one of the *• conspirators " that he should pkad guilty , on the express nnderatand-. in $ that he should only be required to give bail for his a ppearance wh « n called up to receive judgment , but ttiat be will probably be never so called up , " I feel impressed with the absolute necessity of saying a faw words to the whole of the " conapiratora" on this serious proposal .
I would , then , have every " conspirator" seriously to consider , that tbengb . he might escape pnslshmenfe himself by Jteadiui ? suflty , be would be furnishing a powerful wesson to tbe Attorney-General , ¦ which ; would be wielded niasfc dexterously sgainsfe eVery othey prisoner named ia the indictment . There are sixty-two persons charged' in that indfetmeot : if any pleai guilty , it will either be from a ton $ eiciiS 7 iess of gaiK , or it will be a false plea pat in agaiast the eonvictioirof his own mind , for the mere purpose of escaping th& " lash" of the Jaw :
But tha Attorney-Genera } will doatoless constrne iff ' v to tbe former , anft , I have ao doubt , ii is for this very purpose that the wove on his part , referred to above , - haa been made , if every man were charged in Br separate indictment bis case would stand alone , and he ' might safely please himself , and consider enly his own convenience ; but aa every one is thrown iato the same boat with sixty-one ethers , the case of ona becomes the c . iB 9 of all the rest , and if any one plead guilty , the fact of a conspiracy will be at onee proved , at all events to the satisfaction of the" impartial" and " enlightened " jurors ; and . the question of identity , as to tho other prisoners , will be ths only one to be decided .
If therefore any one should yield to the " wicked tempter , " he will lay himself open to the very grave charge of imbecility , or the still graver eharge of deep designing treachery , J . A .

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN STAR . Sir , — I have to inform yon that we had upwards of twenty- victims in this locality after the strike was over ; we , therefore , set outselves to work for a defence fund . The shopkeepers formed a committee , and the operatives another . The trials were near at hand , an-1 both committees -agreed to work together . We appointed ona of the shopkeepers as treasurer for the whole fund . In a few days out income was betwixt £ 8 and £ 9 . A committee meeting was called previous to ths Special Commission being issued , and as a part of our victims were at Chester and the remaining part at
Kirkdale , the shepocrats informed the operatives" committee , that when the trials were over at Chester , tfceir services would be at an end , " because a pirt of the victims at Liverpool were rascally Chartists . " After we received this kind answer from the shopocrats , we had only twelve days left to prepare for the defence of the victims at" Liverpool , and the shopocrats kept the £ 9 that was subscribed for the whole of the victims . We , therefore , again besan to exert ourselves for our friends at Liverpool . We employed Mr . Hudson , of Stockpor t , to defend them , and the whole cost was £ 23 . Our income has been £ 21 , and we have five to take their trials at Lancaster .
We are iiow using all our exertions to raise subscriptions to hand over to Mr . O'Connor . I remain , In the cause of freedom , John Charlesworth , Secretary . Stalybridge , Feb . 21 , 1843 .

THE LEAGUE AND THEia PUBLIC MEETING . The League have ventured to put their nose out of their kennel ; and they have been drubbed 1 They have pretended to appeal to public opinion , in an open and public manner ; and they have been led to know where public opinion is ! They have found , to their discomfiture , that it is not with the League , notwithstanding the possession and spending of their £ 50 , 000 I
We say pretended to appeal to public opinion . Let the reader refer to the aoconnt in another column of the League's " public" meeting in tha Riding School , near to Regent ' s Park , LoHdon , and he will learn why we say so J It will be there seen th&t though this meeting was to be a " public" one , it was attempted to pack it with holders of " tickets" . ' 11 This nefarious scheme was
detected and defeated by the promptitude and good generalship of the London men- All honour to them ! Most gallantly have they played their park ; and most serviceable have they been to the causB ! The best wishes of their country brethren will attend them I They have not slept at their post . They have not shewn themselves lukewarm-The enemy hoped to be able to steal a march ; and right well have they showed him what ' s what !
We wonder whether Coshes , or Hume , or Evaks , or Hall , or even the M Gallant Commodore , " will go to the House" and say , that " the League have the people with them ; and that Chartism is down" Imagine Joe Hnme saying thia I Joey , who " cnt his lucky " , and RAN into the Upper Gallery , from the people ! Just imagine Joky saying thia and being reminded of his having to "lead the van" when fiymg to shelter from the indignant storm of the * Sovereign People" ! Again we say , all honour to the London men . ' We thank them , in the name of the Chartists of England , for the glorious victory they have achieved !
Follow it up ! Be awake ! Suffer not the victory to lead to a false security ! Keep on the -watch The enemy may try again . If he does—meet him . The League have not pnblio opinion with them ; nob is Chasti » m DOWN ! If the League have flattered themselves into a belief that it is so , they must be tansht differently I
