TRIUMPH OF THE CHARTISTS . CRICHTON M'CHLL AND THE JfOJ * -I ? rTRTJS 1 ONISTS ROUTED AT DENNY . THe rebel party of the Church ot Sootland , named non-intrusionjsts , suffered another signal defeat , at Denny , on Wednesday evening last On the Sunday previona , the Ber . Mr . Dempster , of the pariah ot Denny , pompously announced from bia pulpit that a public meeting of the inhabitants of Denny would be held in hi * church , on Wednesday eveningr to petition against patronage , and that Mr . ' Crichton M'Gill , a member of th * aristocracy—a landed gentleman in Fife , ¦ would honour the inhabitant * of Denny by addressing tie meeting . I > oring the course of Monday , some
uncertain rumours went abroad through the town that tke Chartista were on the qm vine ; and' to prevent the tyranny of this troublesome set of vagabonds , as they are called , hills were issued of a peculiarly stupid , phraseology , to throw , as it -were , a sort of restrictic a over the meeting , yet at the sune time to make it appear public . The meeting was called for se o ' clock , by which time a few dozens of the more rt « pid class of Tories , and the most fanatical membt A of Mr . Dempster ' s congregation , had assembled ' jx th « lower part of the church . There was alse a rp- . inkling of Dissenters . The galleries were crowd ed with workies , -with their " mole-skin jackets and blistered hands . "
A few minutes after seven , the great Mr . M'Oill was ushered in , in company with tJ" & ¦ Reverend Hi . Jkl'Cullocb , the Kererend Mr . Bonner , the Rsverend Mr . Begg , aad the Reverend Mr . Dempster , ¦ who very coolly -walked into the chair .. The meeting haying been opened with prayer , Ur ^ M'Gill was introduced , aad commenced his baron gue , which lasted about two hours . It would indeed b < t a profitless task , to sire even an outline of the heterogeneous mass of truth , falsehood , aooseose , sad sophistry , Which was spouted forth , into the ears of tbe weeting by the big gUD of the kirk . H « made a most lawyer-like attempt to gull the Dissenters , and after oosrting a piece of theatrical
claptrap , about Om isdaetion of Mr . Edwards into the pariah of M * tdoc 1 l , he intimated that a petition would be read t » Um neetznf , and concluded by a bombaatka exhortation for -every one to sign it , from the beardless boy to fcb * grey-h * aded man , that the Scottuh Zlon might be rescued from her perils , and God's living . £ raee spread amongst the people , it , fee ., f ee . On the LuiirVn-iW « of Mr . il'GUl's oration , one Of the Rev , O « aUesten on the Bench read a petition to Parliament agaisst patronage , and praying for a repeal of the Act of Qaeea Anne . The momentjthe petition was read , the Oairaaa rose to close the meeting by prayer ; but , before he could utter a word ,
Mr . J . Jack ., from Glasgow , rose and claimed the attention of the Chair , as he had some remarks to make * pon the lecture which bad been , delivered , and the question of non-intrusion generally . Here commenced a stir . The Rer . Gentlemen on the bench stared up to the gallery in the utmost trepidation , while the fanatics below crowded together like frightened sheep . The Chairman intimated that Mr . Jack would be heard after the blessing was pronounced ; but this would not go down with the meeting , who insisted that Mr . Jack should be heard . Mr . M'Gill , seeing dismay pictnred in the countenances of his party , not one of whom eonld open their mouths , except to howl and bray , stood up in their defence . He wished to speak to order , and insisted Mr . Jack had no right to speak , he not being a parishioner . To this it was answered , that
neither was he , Mr . M Gi 31 , a readenter in Denny parish . Mr . M'Gill affirmed that he had been invited by the minister , to which Mr . Jack replied , that he had been also invited to attend the meeting , and by as good a man as the minister . Driven out of their position , it Was next asserted that the meeting -was not public ; but there being numbers present who heard Mr . Dempster announce the meeting as publie from the public , this defence failed also , The next position taken up was , -that ne resolution had been , or was intended to be , submitted to the meeting , Mr . Jack replied that he intended to anbmii a resolution to the meeting , Mr . area now became perfectly furiona , and leaping oa the beach seat commenced abusing Mr . Jack and the Chartists like a fish-wife . Some
of bis party , with more strength of lungs than strength of judgment , commenced howling in the most vigorous and praiseworthy manner , to which the Chartists added an occasional cheer by way of chorus . Between every lull in the storm w * re heard broken sentences from Mr . M'Gill , who stood all the time on the bench seat with his coat buttoned , and bat . cocked fierdy on the top of his head , stamping , and sputtering forth foam at the mouth , threatening law , ordering a constable to mark Mr . Jack , and Uttering such sentences as , " poor boy—ignorant boy—go to school—go home to your mammy—impudent puppy—insolent intrusionist—physical-force man—blackguard Cbartiits —tyrannical vagabonds—low wretches—scum of society " —and many other equally dignified and gentlemanly expressions , which showed him to be at once a true
specimen of what nis friend , Mr . Dempster , designated Wm , a member of the aristocracy . Things continued in this stale for a considerable time , Mr . Jack occasionally getting an opportunity of throwing out a sentence or two , which again and again set Mr . M'Gill and the rest of the brutes who supported him , howling like wolves . At last the gas was put out , aad the meeting dispersed , the anti-patronage petition getting a few signatures , while many who went with the intention ot signing , changed their mind when they saw the eonduct of M'Gill and his brethren . The Chartists assembled oaUide and cheered again and again for the Charter , and groaned for the Non-Intrusionistfl , and the rebellious tlergy of the church of Scotland . The assembly quietly dispersed , after resolving to hold a public meeting the following evening . —Scottish PalrioL

not all Chartists already , that they would become so before the meeting separated . The company then joined in singing the 133 rd Psalm . Addresses -were aftenrards deiivrj ed by Messrs . Saundera , London ; Thomson , teachf x , Kettle Bridge ; Crockatt , Maikioch ; Berwick , Fru-jhie i * od M'Leen , Beith , Ayrshire , known also v { the " Moorland Minstrel . " Tiw whole of the speed * je « were of the most patriotic and soulstirring nat > ire , breathing forth the spirit cf pure and genuine li ' jetty , as contained in the Charter . The abuses an' i corruptions of misgovemment were laid bare in all th Ot naked deformity , asd some of the most conclusi ma * philosophical arguments brought forward in favo a of Universal Suffrage wo have ever heard . Severs / of the speakers , particularly Mr . Crockatt , denor jired the shameless conduct of the clergy in no
meat ^ red terms . He described tbe Established Church & **< gigantic system of legalistd ecclesiastical robbery , Dr www the voluntary clergy , he thought , much better ; ' ot Ux " y were , in general , as determined enemies of the -rigbts and liberties of the peeple , and treated the bow of labour , by whom they were supported , with as great contempt as the most aristocratic hierarch . Such eocdoct he thought , oa their part , was most unsuffec&ble , as most of them were the sons of poor , bardworking men nay , many of themselves had toiled at the loom or the workshop ; and to turn round and tr « at the class from which they had sprang with such superciliousness was most abominable . Mr . Crockatt was at times most enthusiastically applauded . Between
the speeches , Mr . J . Hal ley gave us some of his most choice recitations , which He performed in his usual felicitous manner : comic songs were also sung , in a happy style , by Messrs . Grant , Fruchie , and Cassello , Kettle . Altogether , this was one of the most enthusiastic and ably conducted meetings we have ever seen ; the company testifying no signs of impatience , though they sat upwards of four hours . At the conclusion , votes of thanks were awarded to the speakers , stewards , and to the Chairman , for his able eonduct throughout the evening . Three cheers were then given for the Charter , three for LoTett and Collins , three for 0 "Con-Lor and the imprisoned Chartists , and three for Frost , Williams , and Jones , when the company made way to join in the merry dance .

We are requested to call the attention of the various towns and villages to send a delegate to the next meeting . A vote of thanks was given to the Chairman , and the meeting dissolved , highly pleased with what had been done .

Mr .

Tbe occasion of their meeting this evening was to demonstrate their wish for their natural rights , and to assist . in tbe remoTal of their grievances in a l « gal and constitutional Brniner . He trusted that no proceeding -would take place Each as bad disgraced tbe meeting in tbe church on the previous evening . That w > is a meeting called for self-interest , for the interest of a few to the exclusion of the majority—( cries of the black coatubet the present one embraced the interest , the rights , and tie liberties of alL The non-introsionists were afraid -el discussion , while the Chartists courted it in the most open manner .

Mr . Jjlck . then rose , and was received with much applause . He commenced first upon Chartism , developing its principles , its rise and progress , tbe objects it tad in view , and tie evils to be cared . Af wr alluding to tie other parties agitating the country , Mr . Jack took np tJieguesrion of non-intrusion . He explained to the meeting what patronage was , and showed that tbe objects of the non-intmsionists , if gained , would merely transfer the patronage of the kirk from the crown and aristocracy , into the hands of the clergy theaweJv « & He next proceeded to expose the dishonesty of the nonintrusioniste , the inconsistency of their professions , and their rebellion against the laws of tbe country . In conclusion , he pointed out Universal Suffrage , the birth-Tight of man ,. as ihe primary object to which the people ought to direct their attention , if they wished to r » - - * tore the tiepartiag greatness of their country . The lecturer was repeatedly interrupted by the applause of the meeting , and , on concluding , was hailed with three eh&ers .
