MR- EDWARD CiAYTOJf AND THB CHARGE OS DBTOKBX 5 ESS AGAINST MB . OBRIEH . —We TOipect that our readers must be pretty well rick of this heading . At « H © rents ire are—and noting ritiould have induced u arain to recur to it but the pertinacious determination of Mr O'Brien * friendsto represent as as indisposed to do justice to that gentleman . However , as -we think it last passable that even " Hadderafield Fair Play" may be extended till it becomes foul play , we ahall certainly with this notice close the discussion of this very agree able aad edifying subject We gm below , than , the communication promised in our last It is as follows : —
TO THE EDITOR OF THB NORTHERS STAR . "We the Cornell of the IS&tional Charter Association of HodddersBeld , feel it our duty to reply te your attack upon the character of our worthy secretary , Mr Edward Clayton , in the Star of the 24 th of December , in which charges are made , which , if true would canse us to spurn him from our body iustanter , but knowing that all of them are utterly false , and therefore -untrue , which , though known to the Chartist body of this neighbourhood , may not be so to those who do not know the circumstsnees of the case . jU . Edward Clayton is accused of being " rain , " and because he could not be allowed
" indiscreet ; " to cnt a caper in the Star , tried to make a fiigure somewhere else . We meet the charges as we arrive at them . Firstly , then , Mr . HD 1 says that Mr . Penny contradicted the assertion of the LeedsTimes With all respect to Mr . Penny as a gentleman , we hare nothing to say , but the contradiction from him was no contradiction at all . He was a private individual , and of course if he thought proper to write to the Star he had a right so to do , -with that we had nothing to do , but we , by the orders of the Chartist body , engaged Mr . O'Brien to -visit us , we therefore were tbe proper authority to ¦ vindicate and defend Mr . O'Brien while amongst us ; and as Mr . Penny was a stranger to us , his
contradietion was to us nothing . Mr . O'Brien demanded that we should "vindicate him , this we did , and Mr . Edward Clayton in his official capacity as secretary , and not as a private individual , as the Editor knew well , as a letter was sent and dnly acknowledged by the Editor , stating that a resolution was come to by Hie Chartist body in public meeting , and that Mr . O'Brien himself requested us so to do thus Mr . Edward Clayton ' s wish to cut a caper in the Star -was no wish of his at alL He was only faithfully discharging the duty imposed upon him by a resolution come to by a public meeting , fcc So much for his vanity , &c / tgttfti the Editor says , no new point was mooted , we say there was . The immorality of his lectures ¦ were denied . Again the Editor of the Star charges E . Claytonsshaving the " meanness , the insolence , the audaeity , the dishonesty" to represent the
Northern Star as having along with the Leeds Times , originated and circulated the infamous lie with an intent to do Mr . O'Brien an injury , and refused him the contradiction , it , < tc Again in the above , Mr . Clayton is charged as having , from personal motives , acted as stated by the Editor , and is assailed by the lowest epithets , &c , that can possibly be found in the English language . Again yre distinctly state , that Mr . Clayton wrote not to the Scottish Patriot upon his own authority , but by the wish of the council , and -when requested so to do , distinctly stated that he had not a correct copy of the letter sent to the Star , bnt that if it iras wished , he would write as like the original as possible . That if the words -were not exactly alike , the argument should be the same . This ws say is trne , if they are not word for word , the facts are the same in the Patriot as that sent to the
Editor of the Star . The next charge , "Is not this a most perfect specimen of impotent malice , arising from mortified vanity and overweening self conceit" The aWve is the language of the Editor . Mr . Clayton neither has , nor has he had any malice aginst the Star—his whole conduct proves to the contrary : his labours in the cause have been , as far as his means and drcumstances would allow , second to no man . The charge of malice pre pense , and overweening self coneeit are only charges which we defy , either the Editor or any other living man to prove . He did not write upon his own authority , but by command of the Chartist body , and in his official capacity , which we again assert , was well known
to tbe Editor of Slar . If any malice exists , it is not on the side of Mr . Clayton ; and as for the other charges of self conceit , &c . they are as utterly false as the rest Again , the Editor says , that the letter ta the Patriot purports to be a " copy ; " we defy him to find the word in the note te the Editor of the Patriot ; we knew * that it was not a copy verbatim , therefore restrained from saying » o . We do say that the facts and the arguments are the same ; therefore , ¦ we are justified in Baying the following was sent This the Editor of tbe Star is aware of ; and if there exists any ¦ mniirw it is manifest here , if no were else . With regard to the two extracts which are given ,
we have to say , that they are both quite true ; and the manner in which the Editor has given them reminds us very forcibly of drowning men catchiDg at twigs ; for it was never more verified than in this instance . The first extract given is from the Patriot , which ssys that Mr . O'Briui never tasted any intoxicating liquors . The second , from the letter sent to to the Editor of the Star , says that Mr . OBriea drank fourpennyworth of brandy , he being taken ill . 3 » ow , we assert that Mr . O'Brien never tasted any iflfcoxieating liquors , as a beverage , whatsoever on the Sunday . This is what every thinking man will see ; for the paragraph itself proves the same ,
for it distinctly says , that Mr . O'Brien was taken HI ; and so it was . What h = took was recommended and taken as medicine ; and all who are acquainted with the Tiitues of brandy know that it is so used in many cases . This tbe Editor could sot be ignorant of , for he had the plain black and white before his eyes . In tbe Patriot , that part of which Mr . O'Brien was taken HI , is omitted altogether , it was considered useless to send that portion , And when the assertion is made that he never tasted , it is meant , sod to us understood , by thousands , that he ( Mr . O"B . ) never tasted any intoxicating liquor as a beverage whatsoever . People take laudanum , not to poisonthemselves ; no , but for medicine ; and many others toonumerous for us to mention . We have thus , as briefly as possible , vindicated the character of Mr . Clayton from any blame
whatsoever in this affair , deprecating as we do any illfeeling or divisions amourst our own body . Yet , wben an active and useful member of our body , of ¦ unblemished character , is attacked in the manner which Mr . Clayton has been , we feel it our duty to stand forward and save the character of such from the obloquy which those who did not know the individual would heap upon him . And in conclusion we do protest against such conduct as that evinced by the Editor of the Slar , for it is establishing a dictator little short of that assumed by the conquerors of old , from whose judgment there was no appeal , which , in an Editor of Democracy , comes with an ill grace . To the above we need not add another word , save that the Order will keep in mind that the two letters do not purport to be verbatim copies , and we not stated to be so .
XesTing the pnblic to judge , - We remain , Nat ional Chartists , Ht'DDERSFIELD FaIK PLAi . jobs Chapman . Joseph Brat . Joseph Rcsbfobth . Wm . sellers . robt . jo'es . . A > -DB £ "K- EaiMEKSOS . James Gledhill . Wednesday , Jan . 5 th , 3 S 42 . Tpon this Utter a very few remarks will suffice . The ebief point in it seems to be the assumption by Messrs . Chapmsn and Co ., of all the the responsibility of Mr . Clayton ' s act * They affirm that ilr . Clayton ' s letter
to the SaUish Patriot , ^ representing the Northern Star as iming , conjointly with the Leeds Times , originated * his " dnmienEess" scandal against 3 Jr . O Brien . was aothii letter in reality bnt theirs ; that Mr . Clayton fceted under their instructions and by their command-AH w e can Eay to this is , that do appearance of * och instructions and commands -was observable in Mr . Clayton ' s letter either to us , or to the Scottish Patriot fie ¦ wrote in his own name ; he wrote as from himself , * Bi apparently on his own authority . We , tbertfore , * ao had on ] y j ^ own letter to go by , could know noting cf the "instructions and commands" which Messrs . Chapman and Co . say were grren to him . Perhaps this fctter ksiug sight of his constituents , and personal as-* nn > ption of all the importance and dignity of his
communication , may be one reason why M fcs * rs . Chapman &ad Co . exculpate Mr . Clayton from tbe charge cf vanity * ad Klf-concfch ! Be that as it may , we are quite willing to give 3 ir . Clayton all the benefit of the mantle thus thrown over him by his friends Chapman & Co . It seems tten . that Mr . Clayton did not , as we supposed , send this lie to the Scottish Patriot , of himself , as the consequence of fuming disappointed conceitednfss at not seeing his letter in print . " He merely lei t himself as the ; tosl of Messrs . John Chapman , Joseph Bray , Joseph Sushforth , William Sellers , Robert Jones , Andrew Eauntnon , and James Gledhill , who had a mind , for some reason which we have yet to iearn , to amuse themselves with a came of wilful falsehood and
Malicious slander . They it Beems thought Mr . Clayton * very fit instrument for work of this kind . » ad he was very ready to do it We wish them and him joy of their occupation ; but advise them to practise it upon some other Bubject . Whether the lie was Mr . Clayton ' s , or Messrs . Ciiapman and Co . ' a , we care not : the only difference is , ifcat on the lormer opposition there was a motive sufficient to operate upon a weak and conceited mma palpable in the fact of ocr havjDg declined t % > inseit Mr . Clapton ' s Dow famous litter . In the Isittr cite , no motive is discoverable but the love of miw . ha = f , of which Messrs . Chapman and Co . Etera so conscious , that even in this epistle , in which they endeavour to t-xoBt-rate Jir . Clayton by taking upen themselves the disgraceful

odium of having charged tbe Northern Star with assisting the Leeds Times to asperse the character of Mr . O'Brien , they do not venture to assign any reason why they did so . They merely assert that Mr . Clayton acted for them . Be it so : he was , then , the disgraceful instrument of a disgraceful clique . Messrs . Chapman and Co . affirm that the letter of Mr . Clayton to ui , our declining to insert "which has given rise to all this display of impotent malice , was their letter and not his . They say « Mr . Edward Clayten wrote in his official capacity as secretary and not as a private-individual , as the Editor knew welL" This ib false . Mr . Clayton wro te here as a private individual ; mhis own name ; and without any reference to any anthority but his own . What commandi or instructions might have been given him by Messrs . Chapman and Co ,, we neither know ner care . They did not appear in or with his letter . His letter to us was introduced with ihe following words : —
Euddenfield Novr , 15 , 1 S 41 " -Deak SIR , —I hope you will allow me a portion of your valuable paper of Saturday next , to -vindicate the conduct am character of That Fouly calumnated Gentleman J . Bronteree O'Brien , whilst amongst us , and as one , who is fully , acquainted with all the circumstances of the case , and to lay before The public , thaTruth , " &c One word upon the great stress laid by Messrs . Chapman and Co . upon the necessity of a contradiction of the ' drunkenness" calumny coming from them . Our testimony—the strong testimony of Feargus O'Connor , and the gentlemanly statement of Mr . Penny , all go for nothing , if the veracious fingers of Messrs . Chapman , Clayton , and Co . be net in tbe pie . How happens it
that these , very zealous friends of Mr . O'Brien did not discover the necessity of meeting and rebutting the calumny of the Leeds Times against Mr . O'Brien , until after it had been effectually done by others , and their quiescence had been reproved by Mr . O'Brien himselfr who they say wrote " to demand that they should vindicate hivu" ? How happened these " Huddersfield Fair Play" gentlemen to command their tool , " Mr . Edward Clayton , to write to the Scottish Potriti , denouncing the Leeds Times for the calnmny , after it had been retracted and apologised for by tbe Editor of that paper ? We have little reason to love the Leeds Times ; but we do love " Fair Play , " and disapprove its violation as much against an enemy as against ourselves .
The attempt to palliate the lie that the letter sent to the Scottish Patriot and the one sent here were duplicates 1 b of a piece with all the rest The letters are essentially different , not merely as to iwords , but as to substance and as te facts , as Mr . Edward Clayton well knows . We" learn that a most dishonest and dishonourable use is being made of our having sup pressed this famous letter of Mr . Edward Clayton ' s . It is represented that this letter met not merely the charge of drunkenness , but that other things were handled and referred to in it , which our disposition te injure Mr . O'Brien caused us to withhold . We now think that justice , not less to Mr . O'Brien than to ourselves , requires us to state plainly why this letter was not printed in the Northern
Star . A sense of delicacy to Mr . Clayton prevented us from Btating those reasons folly in the first instance , and we gave the fact of there being no new point in it , of its being mearly a repetition of Mr . O'Connor ' s and Mr . Penny ' s statements , as our reason for not printing it . That waa a reason and a sufficient one , but it was not the only one . The letter itself was so splendid a composition , that we must either have had the perfectly unnecessary trouble of re-writing it , or we must have mortified Mr . O Brien , and hive exposed him to ridicule , by exhibiting the contemptible display made by his friends in his defence . We had no wish to do either of these things . We did not wish
to injure , to insult , or to annoy Mr . O'Brien ; we did not wish to publish a letter of our own with Mr . Clayton ' s signature to it ; and therefore as the letter itself waB utterly valueless either to Mr . O'Brien or anybody else , we witheld it in the civilest and most respectful manner possible , simply observing that we thought enough had been said upon the snbject It was our opinion that if even the letter bad been a creditable and respectable one , any continuance of the discussion , after the fir&t indignant denial of the calumny , must be injurious to O'Brien . This seems not to be our opinion only , for we have now before us a letter from the sub-Secretary at York , informing us that after Mr . O'Brien ' s lecture in that City , the following resolution was
passed : — " That the Chartists of York view with extreme regret the coatinued introduction into the Slar of what ib termed ' the charge of drunkenness against Mr . O'Brien , ' which charge they believe to be base and calumnious ; and they cannot approve of the conduct of the Editor in allowing ( under any circumstances ) the continued introduction of that which ought never to have been suffered to appear in the Slar at alL" "That the above resolution be sent to the Star for insertion . " W . Cokdevx , sub-Secretary
Upon this we remark , en passant , that the sending of this resolution to us for insertion , is a queer way of deprecating the continued introduction of the subject into the Star . We perfectly agree with the Chartists of York , that the discussion is unadvisabla ; and we regret that the anxiety of Mr . Clayton and his friends , Messrs . Chapman and Co ., to " cut a caper * ' by way of serving Mr . O'Brien , should have been so unfor tunately manifested . It was because we thought so that we declined to insert Mr . Clayton's letter of the 15 th of November last We repeat that our reasons for declining it were—first , that enough had been
said upon the subject ; second , that the letter contained tjo new point—it met nothing but the " drunkenness" charge , which had been already mnch better met ; and , third , that the letter itself was so disgraceful a composition , that its insertion must have been an insult ana an annoyance to Mr . O'Brien . Xest Mr O'Brien and bis friends shcnld really think that there was seme other point besides the " drunkenness" one in tbe letter , and lest our own friends should think that we do Mr . Ciayton , — the candidate for Conventional honeurs , —inji ^ tice in thus characterising his production , we give the letter verbatim et literatim : —
JUSTICE , JUSTICE—TIS ALL I ASK . On Saturday , the 6 th day of November , a paragraph appeared in the Leeds Times , in which it is stated , tbat on Sunday , tha 31 st day of October , two lectures ( or harangues ) where delevered by Mr . J . B . O'Brien , in which principle was never grapled with , or any thing instructing advanced , they ( the lectures ) consisting of nothing but denouncing in .-dividuals and humbug ; and to wind up , states that he waa . " drunk , and no mistake . " Now the . charges are before the public they must either be true or false . Let us examine fairly the last charge first On Sunday , tbe Tth , I waited upon Mr . Broadbent , the reporter ; he was engadged . The day following was appointed , when I should have an
opportunity of seeing him . Accordingly I waited upon him . my object in so doing I stated the reasons where first was he the author of that paragraph ? secondly , upon what anthority or grounds did he rest the charge of drunkenness ? To the first his answer was in the affermitive . To tbe second , he stated to me then and again on Tuesday evning , before two witnesses , that he bad no proofs . No proofed no not one , save and except " what" Why , " he thowjhl he teas ' . " I asked him repeatdly if this was the only foundation for finch a public charge , upon the character of a gentleman and he distinctly stated it was I c&uld . scarcely conceal my indignation and disgust for such an individual who could so forget himself to satifpy the baser passions , to the injury ( as far as by in his power ) of a gentlemen as far superior and above him as Heava is to Hell . Yes , the only
-thing on which he rested the charge was " he thought he was . " I then , bo that he could contradict the same , proved to him by occular proofs , that the same was false and untrue I will now lay then before the public , and leave them to judge . I waited Mr . O'Brien arrival , accompanied him te an Hotel , a Temprenee on , mind this , from there to Mr . Pitkethly ' s , to dinner ; he took for his beverage one glass of water ; from there , along with Mr . Penny , to the Hall of Science , which we found croweded to excess . After the afternoon lecture Mr . O'Brien was taken ill . On the recommendation of a medical gentleman , and unknown to Mr . O'Brien , I sent for four pennyworth of brandy , which be drank npon the pla forn . After which , Mr . O'Brien having wrapped himseU well up , I and Mr . O'Brien took a Bfcort walk until tea was ready ( which was provided in the Hall for the accommodation of the
country friends ) we saunteid into the country for the space of half an hour . On our return we took tea with nearly 100 frieDds , and if Mr . O'Brien had been in liquor would have known , after tea I left Mr . O'Brien for the space of ten minutes with cur worty and tried friend Mr . Shaw , a tetotelar of long standing . They took a short walk , and I joined them We proceeded to the Hall , which was crammed almost to suffocrtion , where be so exposed the fallacies of Owenism , and shewed the absurdity of thier system as called for oft and numerous plaudits . Be also exposed , in tbe most eloquent manner , which showed that he was complote master of the subject—the vilany of the funding system ; and traced , in a most clear and lucid manner pos-E&ble , the progress of usury , and the system Jby which the working classes of this country have
been brought to thier present situation ; painting out , in the clearest manner posseble , the only possabie . way by which these direfnil effects could be rooted from society , which was received by the audiene in . such a manner as proved tbat thy met the cordial approbation of the vast assembly then preseni—the produce of that Gentleman ' s labours is increased numbers to our ranks , which is a proof of the good done by his lectures . iBdfced many who are opposed to us in principle , met me , and candidly confessed that he ( Mr . OBritnj wss a truly talented and eloquent speaker , thai the paragraph in the Times wsb a most Ebaiuefull and disgracefull paragraph ; and some w * it fco far aa to assert , that if any person there ¦ R-Eif in a state of drunkenness it was Mr . Bro&rfbent . . This , from ti' > se opposed to us , is ef itseif a proof srfilecnt . . Now , I furthermore beg to Etite , that ilr . O'Brien never , during the course of
Untitled Article
that day , ever tasted any kind of drink , either intoxicating , or unintoxicating , savon cup of coffee , st ten o ' clock that night , which i can prove by living witnese chiefly total abstainers . I never left that gentleman while near | twelve o ' clock Furthermore I challenge . Mr . Broadbent to a pnblic meeting of his townsmen , when and where he pleases , to prove bis assertions , and I will undertake to prove that he ( Broadbent ) is a base , lying , calumaaating Tillian , to a majority of the meeting then present I remain , truly yours , Edward Clayton .
Such is the famous letter of Mr . Clayton , about which all this disturbance has been made . We have not altered a word , a letter , nor a point ; and we think that all who read it will agree with as that , in declining to publish it , we acted kindly towards Mr . O'Brien ; and that in merely staling , as a reason for so declining , " enough had been said upon thsBabject , " we acted both kindly and delicately towards Mr . Clayton . We are sorry-that the intemperance and ill-temper of Mr O'Brien ' a friends should have dragged this exposure from us ; but the fault is not onra .
And now we have only one more word . to say , amd that is to our friends generally . There is probably no other newspaper in England that receives so much original correspondence as the Northern Star— there is certainly no other that circulates so extensively amongst persona who , while their feelings are very strong upon the subjects in which they are interested , are yet from their education and circumstances , unable to form any adequate conception of the peculiarities , th » difficulties , and the labour of our position , And hence we have been induced to pass by , without feeling the least offence at them , many very harshly expressed censures whieh we felt convinced -would never have been pronounced bad the parties from whom they emanated ,
known all that we knew . We are always ready to excuse the hasty expression of a well-meaning mind , ill fitted , by circumstances , to judge accurately of a matter upon which they yet feel deeply ; and hence we not only excuse but thank our York friends for tho admonition contained in their resolution ; while we feel quite sure that had they consulted upon it with Mr O'Brien , who knows more &f the peculiarities of such a position as ours is . than they do , their resolution would in all probability , if passed at all , have assumed a different form . We can make no such excuse for the Huddersfield friends of Mr . O'Brien , who have dragged this explanation from us . We leave them to account to that gentleman for their extraordinary mode of " vindicating" him in the best way they can .

The meeting was addressed by several speakers , both masters and operatives , and the following resolution was agreed to : " That it is the opinion of this meeting , that the labour of young persons , employed in factories , between the age of thirteen and twenty-one , should be restricted to ten hours a day , for five in the week , and ei ^ ht hours on Saturdays ; and , that such a limitation is required , not more by justice than by a sound commercial policy . " A petition to Parliament was adopted .
THIB . SK . —The pressure of the limes begins to make itse'f felt ia this neighbourhood to an alarming extent , poverty and its inseparable companion crime are making sad inroads into the peace of the inhabitants of this usually quiet rural district , the number o £ penniless and houseless wanderers is fearfull y great , upwards of thirty casual paupers having obtained a fhelterfrom the pitiless storm oa one night during last week , in our workhouse ; as may be anticipated , crime is also greatly on the increase . A few days ago , a lad was stopped , and his pockets rifled on the road between Suttonand Bagby . A . young man of the name of Hawxwell , was set upon on the turn pike road , about three miles from Thirsk , and near
to the place where Mr . Bosomworth , of Bagby , was robbed three "weeks or a month ago ; a man rushed from the hedge , seized his horse ' s bridle , and gave a loud whistle , which startled the animal , caused him to free himself from the marauder ' s grasp and enabled him to get cJear off . —The house of Mr . Francis Pinkney , the Griffin Inn , near the same place , was on the following night attempted to be broken into . Fortunately , the iamily were aroused , and by discharging a gun from the window she-wed they wer « on the alert , and scared the villains from their object . —Several other attempts at robbery , tfec . have been made in the neighbourhood , but seldom with better success , but enough to keep the public mind in constant alarm , and to wish themselves well over the
winter . HUDDEBSFIEIip .-A Patriot . —An Anti-Corn Law lord of the furnace blast , having agreed that his lady should be one of those who should go round tbe neighbourhood last week , for the purpose of obtaining signatures of her own sex to the petition of the mighty League , so far over-stepped his benevolent desire to procure for the mass of the people cheap bread , as to shew the clevon foot by presenting his own men with a boon , preparatory to receiving a still greater one , namely , by reducing their wages two shillings per week .
DARLINGTON . —The Darlington theatrical amateurs intend giving the proceeds of their last night ' s performance ( Thursday , the 13 ih ) to the relief of the unemployed operatives and poor of Darlington . The band , the printer , and all others connected wiih the society , have given their services gratis for the evening . CAHXtlSLE . —Horrible Distress and Destitution . —We mentioned , last week , that a Committee of working men had been formed for the purpose
of taking a complete enumeration of tho circumstances and condition of the poorer classes . They have since completed their labours , which they have been enabled to perform in a most correct and satis factory manner , through the kindness of G . H . Head , Esq ., banker , who very generously paid all the expences of bookB and labour . As the lepoit of the Committee will best convey an adequate idea of the result of its inquiries , we hasten to lay it before the public , as opening up a mass of misery and destitution which is heart-rending to o ontemplftte .
Report of the Committee appointed at a Public Meeting of the Inhabitants of Carlisle , held in the Toum Hall , on Tuesday , December the 28 th , 1841 , to take a complete enumeration of the circumstances ^ , and condition of the vsorkivg classes , u-ith a view to aisist the Committee previously appointed to disiriliiUe temporary relief .. Tour committee have given their most miaute and assiduous attention to the subjtct they were appointed to investigate , and beg leave to lay before you the

result of their labours . The day following the public meeting in the Town Hall , a deputation from the committee waited on G . H . Head , Esq ., and after having stated the object < i of the committee , he kindly ordered Mr . Arthur , book 8 eUerV ' . ^ tO ''' v'fanMafa ; : ' . ' ; . Gb '' 0 committee with a efficient number of suitable books , to take a complete enumeration . Your Committee then proceeded to divide the town into fifteen districts , aa will be seen by the table attached to this report , and appointed two persons to each district , and that the slightest charge of partiality might be avoided , they so arranged the enumerators , as to invariably have one person appointed to each district who was a comparative stranger to the persons residing therein . In this manner they proceeded to take down all the particulars Bet forth in the table , by which it " will be seen , that out of a population of twenty-two thousand ,
there are six thousand two hundred and eighty-six human being * starving , ( for it cannot be called living ) , on the miserable pittance of one shilling and THREE FABTHIN 0 S PER HEAD PER WEEK , OR ONE PENNY THREE FARTHINGS PER HEAD PEB DAT ! » state of things which cannot be much longer endured ; and which is utterly disgraceful to those who have bad the management sf the public affaire of the country . And your Committee are strongly persuaded that , until a great and substantial change takes place in the wretched and fitirving condition of the ; people , the casual hand ef charity will prove of slight avail in relieving the immense mass of misery which at present exists ; indeed it is only a drain on the puraes of those humane and benevolent gentlemen who have bo generously come forward to relieve the poor and destitute . " ' ¦' , ¦ ' ¦ . ¦ ¦' ¦ \ . '"¦ ¦' . " •' . ¦ \ - ; ' ¦ -.. '¦ ¦¦ . ¦ :. ¦
Your Committee cannot refrain from stating one important feature in the result of their investigation , which is , that an immense majority of the distress which exists , and the suffering which is , at present , being endured—is amongst ,: and by those , more immediately engaged in the manufacture of cotton goods . There are in the Enumeration Books no -fewer than six hundred and sixty five hand-loom weavers who with those depending upon them for support , amount to the almesb incredible number of 2 , 995 , being one-half of the whole number of persons in the table ! Wretched as is the condition of this numerous body of men , yet it does not shield them from the pestilential band of the spoiler , who , on the slightest plea will , monster-like , grab another threepence ot
sitpence per cut front their miserable pittance . The other portion , as exhibited in the table , arises principally from labourers and others ' being out of employment at this inclement season of the year . Nearly all of your Committee belong to the working portion of society ; and as such , they were prepared to meet with great privation , destitution , and want . ; bat until- they actually visited the various districts , they had formed bat a weak conception of the alarming extent to which the distress prevailed ; There are few of your Committee whose hearts have not sickened at the horrible and heart-rending destitution and misery which they have witnessed ; hundreds of cases of dwellings
scarcely containing a single decent article of furniture ; cupboards without a solitary mouthful of food of any description ; wretched straw beds with scanty and meagre covering ; grates with lUtie , and in some instances no firej whilst the heart-broken inmates of these miserable abodes presented a picture of human wretchedness , at which humanity shudders —clothed in rags , and in many caaea without shoes and stockings—their appearance pale , baggared , and woebegone—they are evidently fast sinking into premature graves ! Can this be once happy England , where the people were wont to be well-fed , well-clad , and had not a tithe of the labour , they have now to perform ?
Your Committee cannot but congratulate you on the moral and peaceable demeanour of the working classes under such trying and harrassing circumstance * , and can only express their surprise , that depredations on proper ty haee not been tenfold more numerous ; for your Committee well rtmember the time when not half the amount of deprivation and misery existed , that the people at once set the law at defiance , and invaded and took away the property of others ; a course highly reprehensible , and which ought never to be for a single moment countenanced in "¦ » well-regulated state of society . ' -.,- ' , : Yeur Committee would urge tbe necessity of famishing the important result of their inquiries to the Members of Parliament for the borough .
Your Committee have , they believe , in some solitary cases been imposed upon , which circumstance calls for an active vigilenoe on the part of those distributing charity ; but in most instances the well-deserving have been diffident in giving in their names . In conclusion , your Committee beg leave to state , that they will willingly aid the Charity Committee , by giving them information from their books , or otherwise assisting them in carrying out tha laudable object they have in view—that of relieviag the poor and destitute , ¦ - . ¦ ; ¦ . . ¦¦¦ ¦ ¦¦ ¦' - . ¦ / - •; ; . ¦¦'¦ : ¦ -V . ¦ . ¦ Table / shewing In figures , the results of the labours of the Committee .

TRIUMPH OF THE CHARTISTS . A vestry meeting was held on Thursday last , at twelve o ' clock , to elect nineteen commissioners to execute the purposes of the Improvement Act for the ensuing year , in con junction with the Borough Justices , who act ear-officioi The meeting was rery numerously attended , the vestry before the appointed hour being so full as to render an adjournment necessary ; ithe people being determined to he no longer gulled by ; either of the factions . ; Mr . Councillor Kelsall moved that the chair should beoccHpied by Mr . Charles Cummins ; whereap 6 n * . * " " < ' - ¦¦ . - ¦ :. -r ^ V .: ' ¦' ¦ ¦ ' . ' ¦ - ; ¦ -. ' ¦• ¦ : ¦ - ¦ " . ' ¦ ¦ ' ' .- " ¦ Mr . William Hick , as an amendment , propose / Mr . William Brook to the office , Mr . James Green , Park Row , was also proposed but the majority in favour of Mr . Brook was great and he accordingly took the chair . Mr . Naylob , the law clerk , then read the notice convening the meeting ; after which ,
Mr . Hick ; moved that the vestry meeting be adjourned to the Vicar ' s Croft , which was at once carried ; and to the Croft the public repaired , whore Mr . Naylor again read the notice calling the ' meeting .-: - .. ' v ¦ ¦¦¦• ' . . " : ' ¦ -. ' ¦ •' : . ¦ ' "¦ . " ¦ ¦ ' :. . ' ¦ ¦ ¦¦; ¦ ¦• .. •¦ - ¦ . . ¦ ¦¦ ¦' . . The Chairman then called upon any one having persons to propose to do eo , and stated the regulations in the event of a poll being demanded . Mr . Kelsall then jproceeded to road over a list of names , which he handed in to the Chairman , ¦ Baying .-that in A >' s opinion ( an opinion , by-the-bye
m which the public did not seem to join to the full extent , ) they were the most likely men , and the best qualified of any in the borough , for the office . The names he proposed were : —Mr . George Howard , Mr . Horatio 'Wood , Mr , Robert Drury ,, Mr . Wm . Sellers , Mr . Edward King , Mr . George Morton , Mr . Joshua Metoalfe , Mr . Benjamin Hebden , Mr . Joseph Woodhead , Mr . Thomas Otley , Mr . Charles Cummins , Mr . Richard Bissington , Mr . H . Gresham , Mr . Thomas Anderton , Wr . Wm . Binns , Mr . James Viokerman , Mr . John Wtiitehead , Mr . Joseph Raper , and Mr . John Wilson . .
This list was seconded by Mr . Thomas Morgan , the Whig man -of-all-wotk ; -and we believe that -when , the list was proposed , they thought in good faith , they would be able to carry it by a large majority . Several other names were then proposedeesjarately by parties in the crow / J , but without any idea that they would be carried . Some Tories were proposed by an operative , but the party , as a body , took no park in the matter . Mr . Hick then proposed a list , embodying seven of the out-going Commissioners the most liberal of the lot , and twelve others , all staunch friends of the people ' s cause .: This list was seconded by Mr . Michael Longstatp , and was as follows : —
Mr ;; Horatio Wood , solicitor , Hillhouse-place , Eaststreet , v ; Mr . William Sellers , tallow chandler , 53 , Portlandcrescenti Mr . William Binns , cloth manufacturer , Springfield : place- ;; Mr . Edward King , woolstapler , Grove-terrace . Mr . Joseph Woodhead , builder , Spehcer-place , Rounahay-road . . Mr . Joseph Raper , builder , Holbeck . Mr . John Whitehead v machine-maker , Holbeck . Mr . Joseph Pickaid , machine maker , Kirkstall-road . Mr . Joshua Hobson , printer , Market-street .
Mr . William Hartley , broker , Kirkgate . Mr . Joeeph luglish , butcher , 4 , Ludgate-hill . Mr . John .

' ' : ' / ¦ '¦ ¦ . . ' . .
The seven names first on . the list , were retiring Commissioners . ' ; ¦ ¦ •' .. . " The Chairman , in order that there might be no mistake , and that justice might be done to all parties , put each name separately to the meeting , taking one from each list in rotation . ; : ; For each name proposed by Mr . Hick , nearly every , hand in the assembly was held up , while for " Morgan ' s list , " ( the concoction of the Corn Law League and the Fox and Goose Club ) not above thirty or forty vrere held up ^ fpr any one . The CHAiKMAN therefore declared the election to have fallen on the nineteen gentlemen above-named , proposed by Mr . Hick . : ^
A tremendous cheer followed this announcement . The united Whig-Rads had no chance . With them •' Othello ' s occupation ' s gone " - ^ -cleah gone . The people have left them far away behind and it will now be seen that they , having fairly taked their own affairs into their own bands , will manage to conduct them to the credit and honour of the town ¦ i No poll was demanded , and thanks having beea carried by acclamation to the Chairman , for his gentlemanly and impartial conduct in the chair , the meeting broke , up :
Are the Chartists of Leeds ( peraUy a ware that the qualification for a Town Councillor is lower than for an Improvement Commissioner ? and have they asked themselves the question whether those who have power to carry the election of Commissioners may not be able to carry the election of Councillors « they try ? The thing is worth thinking of .
