KEIXrCASTtB . — -The Newcastle Chartist Association met on Monday evening , as ' usual , for business . Mr . Harrison having been appointed to take the chair , the Secretary read the minutes of the last meeting . A lengthy discussion took place respecting electing a delegate to the forthcoming Convention , when H was deeided that it should be deferred until Mr . Cflrfea ' s arrival , as they recognised no other represelttpJve , either In the House of Commons or the Convention , than Mr . O * B . The following resolution wu agreed to unanimousl y : — Moved by Mr . Sinclair , seconded by Mr . Crotners , u That the Newcastle Charter Association present a memorial to the Secretary of State for the Home Department , respectfully requesting him , in his appointments of gentlemen to the Commission of the Peace , not to forget that there are Chartists in this
locality as capable of performing the duties of that important office as any yet appointed , or any of her Majesty ' s subjects . " Mr . Sinclair was appointed to draw up that address . The following notices of motions were then announced to be brought forward on next Monday evening : —By Mr . Cockburnw That a Debating Society be formed in connection with this Association , and arrangements entered into for the immediate carrying out of the same on this night week . " By Mr . Kirke—" That an address be sent from this Association to Sir Frederick Pollock , congratulatory of his appointment to the high office he now holds , and respectfully requesting him to use his influence , in the proper quarter , to procure the immediate return of those ill-used patriots , Frost , Williams , and Jones . "
Sc& ? cbiption . —The sum of 7 s . 6 dM from the Chartists of Fereman ' s Row , was received for the Missionary Fund . OVBBASS . —At the meeting lately held in this city , to congratulate her Majesty on the birth of a princa , Messrs . Mowbray aud Catt , on behalf of the Chartists , brought forward an amendment , praying her Majesty to institute an inquiry into the causes of the distress at present existing in this country , to ., and also to grant a free pardon to Frost , Willianu , * nd Jones , and tbe liberation of all political prisoners ; but which the Mayor , ( being presiding officer ) declared to be lost , and the original resolution carried .
BUNflZt&T . —Thk Crabtist Pabss . —Means of tXTKNDjHG its Efpjcikkcy . —At a recent meeting of the Hnnslet Chartists , it was resolved unanimously , " That a Chartist Loan Tract Society be formed for Husslet ; and that six districts , of fortyfire houses each , be laid out to be visited weekly with Chartist tracts ; the tracts to be the English Chartist Circular , from No . 1 to 46 inclusive , and that six of each number , from 47 , be purchased weekly , in order to have » stock 1 ready when the others have gone their rounds . " This plan will be in operation almost immediately , and we beg to call the most serious attention of
the Chartist public to the necessity and advantages of its immediate and general adoption . We well know that a tract is often read where a conversation would not be allowed . We also know that much misrepresentation has gone abroad as to our motives and principles , and that much ignorance prevails both as to the atate ami burdens of the country , and the characters and proceedings of the worthies oi . former times . Now , all this would be materially removed by the diffusion of sound political knowledge ; and no work , taking its varjety and price into consideration , is so well calculated to effect these objects , on an extensive scale , as the Circular . ... .

TOPMOBDF . K . —The Corn Law Repeaiers at their Diaiv work aqaik I—Last Sunday , the Rev . Mr . Baker , BaptiBt Minister , gave oat to his audience that there woald be a meetiug in the chapel on Tuesday night , to take into consideration the propriety of forming a Branch Society to the great League in Manchcster , as he termed it . Accordingly , the Chartists of Todmorden , ever willing to hear reason , were determined .. to go ; and if they thought that the League ' s objects were preferable to their own , after they had fairly and calmly disonesed each point , to give in . But lo ! the fair-dealing Whigs ( for they are virtually deserving wf ^ Ihat name ) would sot listen to reason ; they said they had no objeottoue aeaiast the five points of the Charter :
that , in a moral point of view , they were just , and deserving the support of every good and reasonable man ; but that it would be better to get a repeal of the Com Lvwa first , and then agitate for the Charter . There was one observation that the Rev . Mr . Baker made , which is worthy of notice here—that be was aware that there was not a' dissentiDg minister in England , but was favourable to the principles of the Charter ; the lads allowed them to proceed without any interruption , until they submitted a resolution ; then a working man in the gallery of the chapel , asked if thev would allow him to state his opinion , but the liberty -loving humanity-monger , and fair-dealing 8 elf- » lected chairman , Baker , said that he could
not » llow dieouiiaion there ; and if any opposition to the proceedings took place , he would immediately dissolve tho meeting . Yes , said he , you had better not get my'feelings up , for ifyou ^ do ; but bethinking him that it would sot do to show his tyrannical disposition there , he said no more ; for there was not more than a dozea persons there that was favourable to their nostrum ; and half of those were actually ashamed of the proceedings . When he saw . that no waj could be done but what would throw disgrace upan them , he called upon anyone present to come forward and siga their dames to become members ; there were just three that put down their names . The Chairman then dissolved the-meeting . A person in the body of the chapel , informed the .
meeting that there would be a meeting in the Chartibt room immediately , and wished all to adjourn thereto ; and another individual then stated , that if the Repealers would go with them , they would give them , a fair hearing , and would discuss their principles with them calmly and fairly . When this person had done speaking , three tremendous cheers were S iven for the Charter , and three dismal groans for le League Clique . At the door of the chapel there were a many of the constables' in attendance . The meeting in the Chartist Koom was very numerously attended , and there were some very good remarks made upon the conduct of the League generally .
