WORCESTER . —We have hid a glorious week in- , deed . The Chartist bark rides proudly here . Mr .

Socialism r . chartism . —On Thursday , the 20 th . alt , this city was postrd with large bills announcing a diacassion to take place between Mr . J . Q . Holyoake , i goeiftl raissionary , and Mr . Dean Taylor , Chartist mis- ' BKffary . of Birmingham , upon ths-question , " Whether : wDl Socialism nr Chartism the sooner benefit the Wurk- ' lag classes » " On the part of the Socialists , it was contended that Chartism had been a long time in operation sod hal trffleted nothir . 5 ; " that Socialism had only fmwnr ^ a few years ago , and had achieved wonders ; thftt Ctanism "would not give to the labourer his reynrd ; t -at lhe Ch ' vrter was a meagre measnrie ; thnt the greatest portien of the Chartists were religious pTc £ * sors ; acd that no good ever proccedt-d from theui ; that Assrria had m ; ire than the Chartibts hal tver
dared := : v ; k for ; and that the communities of li _ , bert Owen "Wrre the only institutions that could ever feenefit the p : op ' . e . Mr . Taylor contended , on the part r f the CLsrf : s » , that Socialism "had "betn in ex ^ tence longer than Chartism ; thst Rjbert Owen bad advocated B » principles of Socialism for the last fifty yoars ; ftn . * . CliiTtiiin had changed the public mind , and was ^ igorouSiV engaged in impart ing a political e \ u : ation to the people , while Sociajiim wasted- its tin : e in kctnres ui > ' > n science ; that Chartisin had , in every sense . effected the most in the least time , while by far the gruatatt T . umrers rallied round the standard of Chartzsm . Mr . Taylor also contended that the Charter -would ernpower the people to obtain a proper command erst tfc = ir labour ; that , in fast , the people , with ths
Charter , would soon remedy existing evils ; that America does not possess what we are s ^ king for ; thut fije Charter is the nearest approximation to univr-rss . 1 princijues of riijht of anything that has yet appeared ; tini insteid c { no good ever being proclnced by religkms pT- > : ? ssors , the only c « inH ! 2 cities that hare ever pK ^ pe red in our times are the religious communities of Amerca . while every community tried by Robert O ^ tu sod the Socialists has been a fa . lure , ar . d that the community system cannot possibly bentSt the people of this cr this iti : generation ; that the law is against the & > ci ? .- ! sts in the purchase of land ; that the lawnaiera c- aid enact laws to tike their property from them , 8- ^ io tie reign of Henry Till ., with the monasteries , it . ; that the establishment of the Colonisation
¦ ad Eruijjravwn &ocitty of BLnninaaam , eo ' -ablished by godalisu , is one proof of its impracticability in th . s eoantry witbyut s change in 1 st and Govurnnuat ; that nu s . bers had left Tytheiiy , the parwiise this mtMr ^ n ^ had deseribwl , wh'ch would not have bttii *** a they enjoyed more happiness thera tlian away ; that ¦ Howing t-iirty to be made happy 3 t Tytherly , for the Whole time Socialism had been agituttd , how loag woold it Se , accordin . ; to the rules of progression , before tbe whole pe «> ple of Ens ^ nd were gathered in ?

STOUH 3 HIDQE . —At the weekly meeting of the ¦ Cb * rti 5 t 3 . oa Wednesday last , April iSth , the plan of Jjovett , Collins , and Co ., was brought forward , and the foDo ^ in , ' resolutions were psssetl unanimous'y : — That ii ^ viuc carefully cor . si \' . ere < i the-plan of LjVctt , Collins , a \ d C- ' .. we are of opinion , thut though good in itself , ^ s an auxiliary to the present plan , it is caloalated -. j retard the prcgrcS 3 of our glorious cause , inae'sntS as it is pnt for-rard as a leading movement , without fl ' rst being submitted to the Executive . If attemp ' vird to be carried forwdrd it must divide us into two parties—a thimj mars to be Jreaded than acygiin ; tisa . We therefore trust the parties that have pet it forward will , at once , like honest men , manfully £ 1 T 8 it up , ^ nd join the National Charter Association , SSd prove thrmselvtrs worthy the . confidence of the peopia .

'" BaOMSSHOVS . —Mr . W .

X > E 5 DS . —There was a very numerous meeting at the room" on Monday night The Council were right I glad to see that their appeal of last week had the good I effect of drawing a largtr meeting than has been usual j of ] ate ; they wonld only say , " Go en as yon harre j begun , and &ee "what can be done with union and per-! severance . Let the inilJ , the warehouse , aad tbe shop , j be places for the Hienrtnrs to spread their principles ¦ and mtke converts . " Surely , if Christian ministers i can urge on their members to adopt tbis line of coa-J duct , the Chartists have a double right ; for their I object is to reduce Christianity to practice , by doing 1 unto others as they -would others shoald do unto them , [ and loving one another as brethren and Chartists .
Chartists of Leeds .

Tivo friends from Wortley addressed the meeting on Monday u > ght , after which the- following resolutions were adopted : —1 . " That we , tbe Chartists of Lteds , do hereby thank that unflinching patriot and a . fvceite of the poor man's rights , Feargus OConnor , for his able exposure of the deceit and treachery of Messrs . Lovett . Collins , and Co . in trying to deprive us of the last spark of freedom left to us , under the mask of patriots , thrrefore , we ara determined to sta&d by O'Connor eo Ioue as he stands unflinchingly by the
people ' s cause . We are also determined not to write "with any party who would try to raise rheniseJTe * , not only by the downfall of the best of patriots , but by the downfall of the cause of which he is so able a » advocate . " 2 . " That the members of tbe Association view vrith pleasure numarons dtsertious from the" new movement" party , headed by Lovett , Collins , and Ca ; we consider their explanations sufficient for us to recrire them back again into their own ranks , having full confidence in them as honest Chartists .

THE CHARTIST APOSTATES , OR TRAITORS IN THE CAMP . " Have they so long held out -with ns untir'd , And stop they now for breath ?—well , be it bo . " " The wrath of Heaven attends the steps of traitors . " The London league of trading traitors seem re&olved to abide by their secret sins , all manifest as they have now become . They Xbow their gnilt , but pride prevrnts them from owning it , and they think , by persisting in it , that they can make evil good . A noble j mind ingenuously confesses its faults , and atones for them by penitence ; but these men ' s minds are ignoble , i They hive reprinted their wily document in their half- ] penny and ptnny periodicals , and moreover , they have ! written angry letters in defence of it They want to j thrust it down cur throats .
Hetherington , who publishes the Odd FeUoic , and an odd fellow he is , -writes that Lovett ' s Whig Chartism j elicited the approbation of the opponents of Chartism . . Not a doubJ of it . ' and th ^ t was the reason why it did not elicit the approbation of the Editor of the jiortheru S'ar . Lovett says that our Editor called national education a national jlctass : this Sir . Hill very properly ; debits . Be did not csli national education per se a national jackass ; but oniy Mr . Lovetfs . Mr . Lovett wis the jackas 3 , and this may account for his stupid obstinacy in not perceiving a difference which di » - t : nguish-is him so truly . " Cunception is a blessing .
but not as he may conceive " It was an odd way of spending his timo in prison to write a book to pltase those who had put him there , and no wonder that an odd fellow should praise it . Hetherington appears , by his own confession to be the most " toad-spotted " traitor if the list He was willing to concede ail to Hume—even his very nanie . Our male Delilahs wire in secret pacti ^ n with the enemy—bonds and iniprlsonnirnt had been tried in vain , and « o we were to be shorn of cur strength , and to have our eyes put out , that we might make sport for the Philis-Uces . The words were to be heic ' em and deute 'em .
What business had these men to make a bargain with the enemy without consulting the people ? We were to be sold , and no qu-. stisns asked . We can forgive our enemies , but not these false friends . Let the unciean things go out from among us . Lovett ought to have been ashamed of himself to think of obt ^ -iiiDg men's names in the way which he did . He thought if he got the names , be should get the men . Cat even those whe signed t- > his sophistry recant as soon as they see its sinister purpose . Lovett L » not be envied . He must read his own condemnation when he reads the letters of those who recal their names from hisJa ; . ' 0 ' Whig-Chartists . He must stand self-condemned . His own name has now lost the spell which it onoi possesstd of calling other names around it He is a fallen star—his ambition has thrown him over the hobby-horse , which he wished to mount , and ha now lies , never to rise again .
The National Association must be set aside , because Lovett did not love it ! Let him go to the Whigs , who gave him a Mack beet ' e for his dinner . The middle classes , finding that the boasted influence of their ,-traitor-tools his so signally failed , will be the first to despise them . They must respect the people all the more for withstanding this mean and treacherous attt : upt All else had been of no avail , and now this , the m jst trying of all , lias proved of no avail also . Had an tnriuy done it , we couiu have borne it ; but they were our familiar friends , wLo sought to moke use 01 the love we bore them to s . duce and ruin us . AL honour to the honest peep ' e who have come out of this trial nobly , and all the bef . et for u , as they have don < out of ail previous trials .
The trading p . iiticiaas -who formed this compact with each otcer and with the Wbigs , for their own ) interests , io which they would have sacrificed the in- j terests of fae people , expected to join the pitronage ' of tbe middle classes by it , who are not so poor as the people . They were ready to abanden the cause for filthy lucre . We are fighting the battle of all nations , of ail time—the battle of truth rnd humanity , of earth ard of HeavLn , too ; but -what -was all this to the pockets of our patriot-byoksclltrs , and middle-class ¦ traders . They thought more of paymasters Hume and Cj . than of the people . We wish the Whigs joy of them . I Hetherington , the spokesman of the party , says that i the pejple are deluded and humbucged , because HE j
can t delude and hum ' ong thtm . He compares Dan O'CocneH to reargud O'Connor ; but he knows that ; there is th-.- gre-test coatr . ist between them . The Charj tists ara Chartists of themselves—they are independent : of any inon ; and they do well when they denounce those xviio d . fl ' dr from them in opinion , because to differ from them is to differ fr-m truth and justice . 1 LoTett accuses the Xort ' iern Star ; but what paper ' Las Ken conducted so nobly , so candidly , amid such I contention ? The Editor inserts letters written against himself , knowing that the people will judge between I him and the writers . Explanation of an offence gene-; rally increases it ; and tbe attempt at self justification ¦ by the traitors is even worse than their treason . On ¦
i Snaing that taoss whom they had entrapped take the fiiat opportunity to escape , they call them poltroons , aud 1 say that they fly ofi" at the dictation of O'Connor . So ; ; tht-y do not renounce Lovettand Co . at O'Connor's dicta-; tioti ; but at the dictation of their own Chartist con-: science . They siy that the middle classes are deterred 1 from joining us by their dislike of O'Connor , and so ' we mast repudiate him to please their prejudices . We ¦ want no such associates , if the price of their friendship ' is to bd an act of the basrst ingratitude . Who could have any pleasure in th « Charter with the knowledge ' that he giintd it thus ? Wo spurn such counsels , and feel the utmost contempt for those who can give them . In the days of the French revolution , such men would hzve be * n immediately guillotined .
Hypocrites I to -Wear the cloak of Chartism as a ¦ disguise for Whiggery ! to mask their villainy v ' iVa ' honesty ! Assassins : to stab the public cause for their ; private interests . But Lovett no lunger lovea it ; Cleave has fhown the cloven foot ; and Hetherington deserves ' his imprisonment , —not for blaspheming the bishops , ' but for blaspheming our holy cause . The Whigs should ¦ ' release him for the service he has done them . ;¦ And now , what thall we say in conclusion ? Why ! this : that all those who flee from the clutches of Lovett . 1 Cie ^ ve , and Hetherington , should be received into the ; r < inks again with pardon aud praise ; else let the storks j skare thu fate of the cranes . j The traitors who have conspired against the cau 3 & , j and belied the Chartist name , should for ever be struck j ofi' our list , and for ever fixed in their own—gibbeted ! for the seem and derision of all true men .

The bbhvice , or the disservice , which the recent debate on the Irish Registration question may do Ministers in Enxlatid , 13 a somewhat important matter . In their conduct of the measure—in reckless legislation without knowledge , in the profligacy of their assertions and abandonment of principles in rapid alternation , and iu exquisite elaboration of defeat—they have exceeded even themselves . They have made their word a jest , and hare done their best to destroy all confidence in every thing they say or propose ; for their ultimate acts are eTerat variance with their professed intention : they seem incompetent to perceive any necessary relation between premise and performance , and to feel as little responsibility for the fulfilment of their own pledges as ousinan does tor fulfilling the pledges of
anether . The- lato farce &f suffrage-extension may serve them , or Mr . O'Coiwe }) , in Ireland : here it will be best for them whe » it is all forgotten . — Spec .

The geod effect that has arisen to the inhabitants of this town , is incalculable ; many a poor family through this as * ans has been
enabled 60 grow as muen barley as to feed their pigs ; also potatoes and vegetables for themselves to serve the whole year . In the evening , and particularly during this season of tb « year , what ean bo more gratifying or pleasing to the feelings ef the philanthropist , than to see numbers of individuals hard at work , each trying to cultivate his small plot of land to the best advantage , bo as to vie with each other in making their allotments the most productive . — Let us hope for the timo to come when every lauded proprietor will follow tho example of hia Grace the Duke of Newcastle , and who knows what amount of inisfry and destitution might be prevented . —^ 0 / - tinoham Journal .
The Death of a President is a new occurrence in tho history of the Union ; no other occupant of the post has died during the term of his Presidency . The decease of the chief officer of the Republic , however , does not produce the same confusion as the death of a monvrch with us iu Europe ; though , according to the theory of monarchical government , " the king never dies . " By the constitution of the United States , the Viee-Preskieut at once succeeds to the chief office , ' and is succeeded in turn by a provisional officer of tho Senate . There is no change of Ministers ; no dissolution of Parliament , for Congress must sii its full term , neither more nor less . Hence , contrary to the general do ^ ma , the Republican forms exhibit more steadiness of working , even on bo critical an occasion , than is to be found iu the boasted limited monarchy . —Spectator .
The worthy Middlesex "bea-Tt" who desired to sack thrf sum of £ 3 , 000 on condition of procuring the liberation of Medburst , the young gentleman who subbed a fellow pupil to death one day , has raised a storm of virtuous indignation on which he probably did not calculate . Ihe horror which his brother magistrates affeci to feel for this atrocity must bo more galling than anything else , since , whomever he is , ho is pretty well aware that thtre are very fevr of them who would net bo glad to pocket £ 3 , 010 for rendering such a service , provided it could be tafely managed . The being found out ia the unendurable part of the transaction , and as that
misfor ; une has occurred , the delinquent may calculate on hearing of the most disagreeable comments being made on the affair . It is the naked atrocity of the act which is so disgusting to the Middlesex magistracy . Not that any of them object to turu their influence to good account when opportunity occurs , or that they would see any sin in reaping substantial advantages from its exercise , provided it came in a less questionable shape . But it is the mouey consideration that U so shocking to their sensibilities ; and the publicity given to tho affair will . no doubt , enhance their con'empt for the poor devil who has allowed himself to be so shamefully detected . — Satirist .
