Doyle addressed b crowded nieeVing is a most able and elcqa » nt address , and elicited great applause . Messrs . Martin , Cowan , Skelton , Osborne , Mantz . asd Miss talker also wJtessed Itos meeting , mad the prooeedines "were prolonged ufcttl a late boor . Nearly £ 2 -was collected drnir . g the day , at the abore Hail , towards defraying tbe expenses of the " conspirator * . " GLORIOrS DEFEAT OF THB LEAGUE—A public meeting &I the League , to petitioa Parliament for a Tfeptral ot tka Gorn Laws , was called on Thtrrsfay evening at the Hall of the Workhouse , Grey ' s-inn-lane , Holkoro . Messrs . Doncombe and Wakley were
announced to be present . The bills announcing ftf meeting -were not posted onul Wednesday morning , and tbe Chartists had previously billed the whole of the Metropolis , announcing a meeting on Kensington Common , to tate into consideration tbe disgraceful conduct of thfi League at the Hums Tavern . Notwithstanding this counter attraction , the Hall of the Workhouse w&s crowded with men of the right stamp li > Dg before Ibe proceedings commenced . Shortly afUr seven o ' clock , the Secretary read a letter of apology fur > lr . Wasleys non-attendance , on the ground of ill bs&Uh , and proposed that Mr . Miine shonld tske the chair . -Mr . "Wheeler proposed , and Mr . Eiw&nis seconded , that Ur . Ba'ls be elected chairman . The Secretary then put Mt Miine to the sictriae . -bout twenty hands were
held up , and Mr . Jidne took biB station amid the groans and disappro b ation of the meeting . Messrs . "Wheeler , White , and others , protested against such Unfair conduct , and demanded thai the anifendrncnt Ehould be pat to the meeting . Just at this period Mr . T . Dancombe arrived , and was greeted with the most treffiendoas applsase . Silence being restored , the amendment was put and was supported by thousands of blistered hands . —Mr . Balls , on taking the chair , explained he was averse to petitioning a Parliament that had flways treated them with scorn and contempt . —The cries for an adjournment now became to pressing , that ike Chairman , in spite of the remonstrance of the Committee , agreed to it ; and the large workhouse tard , the sur .-eunding walla , and every
portion of tbe building wrre fpeeauy occupied . MaDj remained in the room , including the majority of tbe Can Law gents . The steps leading to the hall served fo * an excellent rostrum- - Canolea asd torches were speedily procured ; the wisdows were crowded with the poor alaiswomen an-. l workhouse children . The youne moon shed her calm light on the faces of the sons of toil , and contrasted well with the glare of the torch and the gas in the building . —Order being re-Stored , 3 Jr . Bails britfiy addressed them , demanding a feir hearing fcr all parti&s , and calling upon tbe Leaguera to proceed with their res lotions- These gectiexn . s , anxious as they pretend to be in enlightening the public mind , declined taking any port in tbe proceedings . —Mr . Bel well , in a spirited address , cave a
severe e ^ itigation to the League party , and concluded by moving a resolution expressiv - of their determination not again fo petition Parliament for any minor measure of Reform , but to persevere in thtir agitation for the Peoples' Charter . Mi . G . White , in a powerful and humourous manner , seconded the resolution , and exposed the flimsy veD of phil * ntrophy under which tbo league were anxious to cloak their proceedings , and during a long address was greatly applauded . Mr . Saul , of Manchester , who attended as a deputation from the anti-Corn Law League to the meeting , sex ; addressed them and received a calm and patient hearing . His arguments were of the usual common-place order . The only part of his address at all popular was , that wherein he declared that he never was afraid to
trust himself before a meeting of working men being Veil convinced th-ir desire was for argument and not tat clamour ; this contrasted well with the mean eonduet of th * runaways . Tne resolution was . carried with four dissentients . Mr . T . Buncombe next addressed tbe immense assembly and was long and loudly cheered . He commenced by stating that since he had had the honour of representing Finsbury in Parliament , be had considered it one of his most important duties to attend any pnblic meeting of the inhabitants or electors , and ascertain their Bentiments upon any great public grievance , sad nothing gave him greater pleasure than to aid in removing that grievance ; he was highly pleased with the silence and attention they had given to the gentleman who had last addressed them on behalf of the
AntI-CoTBL » wLeagu £ ; nothing had fallen from that gent with which any one bad reason to complain ; they were Oiled there that evening , and be had received an invitation , to consider tbB propriety of petitioning Parliament for a repeal of the Com Laws . After all he had beard it < Hd not appear to him that there was much difference of opinion on the subject of a repeal of the Corn Laws , -fc&t only on the means to be adopted to rid themselves df then : not one of the speakers had advocated those laws ; they had only expressed their opinion that tbe ¦ hottest way to repeal them * was by & reform of Parliament Their resolution stated that they would not do the House of Commons the honour of petitioning it . As a member of that body he did not think they had altogether come to a wrong conclusion ; their petitions
had hitherto been treated with $ adig :: ii . y and conttmpt . The petition he bad presented L-st session , which vu Justly termed ^ a national petitier * , signed by upwards of three millions of persons , —that petition it&eif demanded a repeal of the Com lavs . It also enumerated the established church and other erJevaocee , but the prayer of it was for the Suffrage . Tee resolut on he proposed to the House was thit they should hear the friends of the working class at the bar ol the House in support of its prayer . That petition ~ wu rejected . His resolnticn was rejected by niae-tcnths of the House , wbea at tbe close of that evening it was stated that if they r » j et ~ d that petition they would have another sent them aigned by four or five millions . He stated in his place in the House that
tfcey might petition if they thought proper , Lnt he would be no party te their further degradation . With regsrd to the Corn Laws , all rational men agreed npon their ir justice ; it would be an insult to their understandings to dwell upon that All had been said and had been written and done that could be said or done ; as far as argument went the question tras settled ; why then was not that measure carried ? It was because the House of Commons was no : i ientifi ^ d with the people . Sir Robert Peel , by the C ^ adian Bin , then before the House , might fritter away the questiun , and by an nad 6 rhard measure repeal the Corn Laws ; but he should wish to see that measure carried by the honest "will of the representatives and not by trick and chiea ^ ery . The repeal of the Corn Laws would now be
effected by the people of the TJniu 4 States , throurb tbe underhand medium of the Canadian Bill . If iht j had eome to the determination of sending a petition , it Would have been bis duty to present it . They had eome to a different conclusion , acd he did not think they had done wrong . They deserve that you should treat the majority of that House with the contempt they have often treated you The attainment of tbe franchiee was a duty they owed to themselves and to then- country , and he believed tkey would n » ' ver erjoy happiness * r prosperity until they had obtained those rights to which in his conscience h& believed they were entitled —( cheering —A vote of thanks was unanimously given to Mr . Dancombe . who left the meetin ? amidst much approbation . —Mr . Leach , who vu loudly called for , next addressed the meeting , and in a mzL terly manner exposed the fallacies of free trade , and dartd its advocates to public discussion . Mr . Saul attempted to reply to Mr . Leach , but weak in voic * and
• weaker in argument , without either orj ^ imlity or energy to recommend him his failure was complete . Mr . Leach , in conelnsion , went into the question of machinery , and , in an eloquent and energetic manner , proved that political power was the first r-. qu . ait- for the happiness of tie people , and that trek trade in corn sunk in comparative nothingness wken put in competition with the rescuing the sons of toil from tke thraldom of <* emi-god capitalists . Mt . Jallan Hsrney having been called upon , addressed Ms old companions , the men of London , and congratulated them upon the victory they had achieved . He concluded by moving a Tote of thanks to the chairman . Mr . Arran seconded tbe motion , wbieh was unanimously carried , and tbe metting dispersed with cheers for the victims , the Charter , O'Connor , the Star , te . This meeting was not only a temble defeat to the League , but served zlso a Charitable purpose , as subscriptions -were entered into aud given to the poor workhouse inhabitants .
A Labge Op £ > -aik Public Meetisg was held on We-inesdaj evening at the Terminus of the Gre » t Weajern Railway ; ilr . G . White addressed them f ; r upwards of an hour , and was londly applauded . Upwards of one hundred persons pledged themselves to join the localities in the vicinity , and great good was eifecud . White then took a cab and proceeded to address a public meeting at the Saloon , Shoreditch . " here a bMeandienee was assembled , who received —JSiH ^ i ^ eat applause , and were highly de"Ey ^ HB gfejlwaonjoas and instructive discourse . ^ g ^^^^ g gMjiQS . —Large public meetings were f aegLglHBggggglpriday evenings , which w * re £ 2 aS y £ | SP « Vhite , Brown , Harney , Railwl ^ gmK ^ % > ma % grtaZ eothnsiaszn was exhibited

Warburton presided as chairman . ' —Mr . ^ Keen moved , Mr . Doyle seconded , and Mr . Parkes supported the resolution : — " That this meeting , doubting the sincerity ef certain persons forming the Association called the auti-Corn Law League , and believing that no permanent benefit can result from tbe repeal of the Corn Laws , or any other law that operates
against the welfare oi the working classes until the wi-ole people have a voice in making the lawa which they are compelled to obey , do hereby pledge themselvbs to use every exertion in their power to cause the People's Charter to become the law of the land , as the be £ t , safest , and only method of banishing misery and distress , andBecuring universal happiness and content '' Messrs .
