We , for once , feel an interest , though by ne means a pleasurable one , in referring our readers-to the sayings of the middle-class House of Representatives . We hare given elsewhere a full report of the debate on Mr . Dcscohbb ' s motion , and the most -valuable debate that has occurred in that House during our tame;—Yaluable , a 3 evincing , if further evidence had been necessary , the real character of the middle-class advocates for liberty , and the- true prospects and only resource of the people . Com-, ment , for the present , is out of the question ; -we
reserve what we may hare to say till we shall have more space , and till a week ' s reflection shall hare prepared the people to recede and estimate it without excitement . Meantime , we entreat them not to permit the contumely of their oppressors to exhaust their patience ; it would but give the wretches too much pleasure to see endurance , having reached its limit , burst the bond of prudence . We have never expected , nor encouraged the people to xpect , any better result from thi 3 motion . We give here the names of those who voted for Mr . Du . vcohbb ' s motion as we find them in the Sun .
TNIYERSA 1 SUFFRAGE , &c . Motion made , and Question pnt , " That the Petitioners who signed the National Petition be heard at the Bar of . the House , by themselves , their Counsel , or Agents , in support of the allegations in their Petition : " ( Mr . Thomas Buncombe : )—The Souse divided : — "

THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE CONTENTION DELEGATES . We have given a report of the proceedings attendant on the presentation of the Petition , as copious as could be , save those attendant on the dinner at White Cosdnh House , where above six hundred sat , down , the tickets being half-acrown . The chair was taken by Dr . Peter M .
M'Donall , the vice-chair by Mr . Leach . On tee right of the Chairman sat Thomas Duncombe , Esq . ; on the left , J . T . Leader , Esq ., and Feargus O'Connor , Esq . The head table "vras occupied chiefly by Members of the Convention . Amongst them Mr . Duncan , ( President of the Convention ) , and Messrs . Moir , Roberts , O'Brien , Lojvery Leach , Doyle , Mason , M'Pherson , Philp , Williams , Bairstow , Ridley , &c . &c .
The Convention sitings we have been compelled to reserve . We give below the letter of Mr . O'Connor , in whieh some reference is made to one subject of the deliberation of that body , and upon which we may hereafter have a word to say ; for the present the petition , its presentation , and reception , are the great matters of attention . That Petition , signed by Three-and-a-half Millions of People 1 has sealed the doom of faction , and made sore the foundation of the people ' s triumph !! !

TO THE IMPERIAL CHARTISTS . Mr btxov : £ d Feiekds , —I really know not how I am to commence my communications of this week , it has been so full of Chartism On Monday morning all was bustle and excitement in the neighbourhood of " Ocs House "—each man vieing with his fellow in rendering all the assistance in his piWer to make our demonstration as powerful as possible . At ten minutes past twelve the BiLwrriTCL thisg was ready for hoisting upon the shoulders of the Trades' Delegates , who had been selected as bearers of the muster roll of the nation ' s will to the Hocse op rx-Cojnio . Ns . Sixteen good men and true were just able to move under the names of
3 , 317 , 75 . 2 !!! We marched from our Convention Room to Iincoln ' s-inn-fields , where all was life and bustle ; The hive was full . I cannot attempt any description of the enthusiasm I iThe life that animated one animated all . We were as one man . Our procession took one hour and ten minutes to pas 3 one spot . Procession did I say ! we tad no procession ! it was a dense mass of streets full 1 ! Procession means a number of persons marshalled four or five a-breast , but our numbers could not have been marshalled . The Times allow us * 0 , 000 . Now you may safely multiply that by 10 . It was acknowledged by ail that it was the largest , the very largest gathering of people that ever was seen in
London-Oar Petition smashed the door frames of the narrow House—it broke them in pieces—it took farcy or fifty men to carry in the fragments . I took a famous lump on my shoulder to the table of the House . Beesley also had a share of it .. Not one drunken man was to be seen in London on the " 2 nd May , 1842 . Was I then wrong in my opinion of the Chartists of London I Our dinner was as glorious a 3 our demonstration . But what I esteem as—to myself—the greatest triumph , is this : after mutual explanation , and a rather angry debate , I had the pleasure , amid the most rapturous applause , to balk the wily and disappoint the artful , by shaking hands with James Bronterre O'Brien ; and bury for ever all hope of osr enemies' triumph through our disunion .
No , my beloved mends , no private feelings of my own shali ever enter into your councils . I will always surrender private feeling to public duty . But , mark me , I have no feelings—I never had any feelings but those of affection , regard , and love for O'Brien . But it is now done ; aud , therefore , my friends , let it be announced to the world that disunion of your friends shall not in j ore vour cause . Well , I
attended in the Honse last nigtt , to hear the debate on your Petition . The first hour was spent in pri-Tat-e bill business , church business , and enclosure of poor men ' s land business . For that hour ilia House was too small to hold il our representatives" but the moment cur champion , Duncombe , was called upon to sta :-e your case , then , by degress , the House thinned , till it was reduced to 18 on the Tory and 30 on the Whig benches .
You will hare seen the '' Petition Debate . " I shall not comment on the Tile speeches of Macaulay and Roebuck : I shall leave Item to their constituencies I am now bat one of many ; and shall not therefore say one word as to your future ccuroe , as that will be pointed o * i by your Convention . Suffice it to Eay , my friends , that vrbat your Convention decrees , I , as one , will sacrifice -my life , if necessary , to carry out .
Nothing can equal the bravery , the decision , and snanimity of your delegates . Not one word of disunion ; but all , on the contrary , endeavouring to soothe down anger and heal differences . 0 , how different from the middle-clas 3 Convention of Attwoodites , Cobbettites , and Londonites J No deserter ! no two objects I no big icords and litth actions I I am going this evening to Brighton , to stand between the Whig and Tory at the election , for the Burpose of placing the true light of Chartism betweer

tie dead lights of Whiggery and Toryism . I shall not fail to discharge my duty to the cause , although I have no skin on my heels or ancle 3 . It was trod off in the procession : and I feel a secret pleasure , as I have had my blood shed , also to have cast my skin , but not my principles , in the good cause . No power bHt the power of Chartism could have mustered the numbers that we mustered on Monday . Every house , every hole , and every corner is nowfull of the demonstration on Monday , It has paraded Chartism in open day , and brought us under the eye of the heretofore blind . They ask what it was ? and echo answers " Libertt . "
We have no chance whatever from the House of Commons ; our Charter must be carried out of the House before it is even temperately discussed in the House . The Tories did their work with a slyness peculiar to their order . Sir James Graham knew that the word " fire , " though softly given , would insure the discharge of the heavy artillery of Whiggery , and Eure enough Macaulay took the hint , and under the Tory General the Whig 3 did fire away ! But no matter ; Duncombe and Leader stood to their posts like men , and like Chartists . During this day , of course something will be done to maintain the position which we have now acquired . Be not intimidated ! be not down-hearted !! be not
influenced by the House of Commons' defeat . We are now discussing the subject of" denunciations , " in . the Northern Star ; but , my friends , you must take up : he Siar and investigate it ,. and endeavour to point out to me and to the country the name of any one individual who has been denounced by Feargus O'Connor or the Star , who waa not first denounced by the people , for some act of tergiversation or injastice to the people . Wa 3 I to submit to the denunciation of the men of the Champion , of Dr . Fletcher , of Mr . Collins , of Mr . Hume , of Mr . Hetherington , of Mr . O'Connell , of the Church Chartists of Glasgow and Birmingham ?—I ask , was I to bear the fire and not to retaliate 1 Is not every man aware that the first fire has been at Feargus
O'Connor , and the Star , as that paper was the great cock-shot to fire at 1 But am I so foolish as not to know well , that every leader injured i 3 an injury done to all , and to the cause generally Therefore , now hear me ! jndge for yourselves ! and come weal come woe , whenever I discover anything calculated to injure you , I will proclaim it from the watch-tower ! [ I tell you that public censorship is neecssary and requisite ; and as long as I live , I will not shrink from the responsibility ; but it shall always be against measures and not against men . No power of open foe or pretended friend shall ever place me in the false position of allowing the mine to spring tinder our feet , without warning you of our common danger .
You must look to the position of the Editor of the Northern Star and bear in mind that both the Editor and myself are charged with the insertion of every resolution passed at public meetings , just as I am charged with every violent word spoken , by Attwood , Muntz , Douglas , Stephens , Lovett , Collins and others . Now , also , bear in mind that the Siar has published every letter of Fletcher , Hetherin £ , ton , Duncan , of Edinburgh , Hill , of the Star in the East , Richardson , and others ; all were published .
The Editor of the Star all but denounced me for my letter upon Church Chartism , Teetotalism and KnowL dge Chartism . Did I reply to it ? No ; I left public opinion to right the thing ; and events prove that I was then right , as I now find that men who have professed themselves infidel ? , have become preachers of Church Chartism . This is shocking , odibu 3 ! and hypocritical ! Let all be union now ; forget the past , and prepare for the future . Onward and -we conqner , backward and we fall .
The NVhigs have shown themselves in their trne colours ; and yet the old Whig administration is the substitute which the Corn Law Repealers offer U 3 for those now in office ! Let not our cause be injured by artful and designing men , who would sacrifice millions for the restoration of Whig dominion , withont destroying the venom of Toryism . I am of opinion that by eourage and prudence we can beat both , and "injure property" by substituting Chartism foi both . Your faithful friend and servant , Feargcs O'Co ^ ob . London , Wednesday , May 4 , 1842 .

The state of our columns this day , is an ample apology for the non-appearance of our promised article on the Poor Laws . To find room for it " this week was impossible . Next week we shall give it ; and with it the entire of the famous 43 rd OF ELIZABETH . to show that the rights of the Poor were then cared for ; and that modern legislation has gone far to remoTe the legal ligament which binds society together .

Monet Orders to this Office . —Our Cashier is frequently made to endure an amount of inconvenience , utterly inconceivable by those who have not multifarious transactions liko bis to attend to , by the negligence of parties not attending to the plain instructions so often given , to make all money orders sent here payable to Mr . John Ardii h . Some orders are made payabie to Mr .
O'Connorsome to Mr . Hobson—some to Mr . Hill—some to Star-o&oe : all these require the signature of the person in whose favour they are drawn before the money can be obtained . This causes an attendance at the post-office of , sometimes , several hours , when a few minutes might suffice if all were rightly given—not to mention the most vexatious delays of payment sometimes caused by it Several old Agents—who certainly ought to know better—have often thus needlessly incovenienced us ; we therefore beg that all parties having money to send to the .

This may be occasioned by the delays of the mails , owiusj to the weather , but there certainly is no reason why the Agents at Hull , Liverpool , and even Barnsley aud Bradford , should send their Orders to reach the Office just at tho time the papers are going out of it .

LEEDS TOWN COUNCIL : The Second Quarterly Meetingof the Town Council of this borough , for the present year , was held at the Court-house on Wednesday last . The Town Clerk read the minutes of the previous meeting .- . ¦ . '¦ : \ ¦ " ¦ ; V ' ' ' "¦ ' ; - ¦ . ¦ . v : ' ' ' •;¦ ¦ The first notice on the paper related to the New Gaolj but Mr . Alderman Tottie , the gentleman by whom it was to be brought forward , not being present at the commencement of business , it was agreed to proceed with the second , which was to levy a Watch Rate for raising the Bum of £ 5 , 580 ; this wasagreedto . ; The third notice was to levy a Watch Rate to raise £ 270 upon all property within that part of the township of Hunslet Which is beyond the limits of one mile from the bars of the town , was also adopted .
ERECTION OF A NEW BOROUGH OAOt . The notice on this subject haying been read by the Town Clerk , Aid . Tottie said he would hot trouble the Council on this occasion with many details on the subject before them , as those details were mostly in the possession of the gentlemen present , having been printed . He then went oh to address himself to two points—the insufficiency of the present Borough Gaol accommodation , and the law by which that insufficiency might be remedied , and after a lengthy address , concluded by moving a formal resolution , expressive ofthe opinion of the Council that the certificate of the Recorder and the presentment of the Magistrates were vfell founded , and that a new Gaol or House of Correction was necessary . Mr . Cudworth seconded the motion .
Mr . M . Cawqod said that he had hoped that Mr . Aid . Tottie would have brought forward 1 some stronger arguments—some Btrpnger than he bad brought before—in favour of his propositions for building a gaol ; instead of which , he had only advanced arguments that had been more than once heard and refuted in that Council Chamber . To show the real state ofthe case , and that it was not reasonable to build a gaol , he would refer to what had already taken place . There were several persons in the Council now who were not present when a Committee was assembled last year to draw up a report on the / subject of a new gaol . Tiie reason why that Committee was appointed was , that the Borough of Leeds was called upon to pay £ 2 , 495 , or within £ 5
of one-tourth of £ 10 , 000 , for building a gaol at Wakefield . The West Riding Justices , it was stated , intended to build a larger House of Correction , ana that the Borough of Leeds would have to contribute towards that also . They had three plans proposed , the lowest of which estimated the cost at £ 56 , 000 , the share of which expence to the Borough of Leeds would have been £ 14 , 000 , and the highest was £ 100 000 , of which Leeds would have had to pay £ 25 , 000 . It did then seem desirable that the Council should consider tho propriety of building a gaol for themselves . But on looking to the contract between the Council and the West Riding Justices , it was thought there must be something wrong , that it had not been properly drawn up , or that its terms had not been abided by ; and Mr . W . Beckett took considerable pains on the subject , in getting it duly brought before the West Riding Magistrates . When
the Magistrates were told that the contributions by Leeds were equal to one-quarter of the whole sum , they thought it was too large a sum ; and on reference to the contract , it was found that previous to 1836 , Leeds had paid ouly one-tenth . The West Hiding Magistrates then ordered Air . Dixon , their Clerk s to consider with the Town Clerk of Leeds ; and this Borough was then called upon to pay oneeighth instead of one-fourth . It , therefore , appeared that the report of the Gaol Committee Had been drawn up under wrong impressions . It was to be remembered that though the cost of a New Gaol was to be spread over a period of fourteen year 3 , yet it would have to be paid , and the Burgesses would be heavily taxed all that time for the purpose , much more so than by continuing to support the borough prisoners at Wakefield . The inhabitants of the town had not been consulted on the subject of building a New Gaol , which they ought to have been before it was decided to commence
such an undertaking . He remembered presenting a petition in that Council Room , signed by nearly one thousand of the inhabitants , against such a building being erected ; and he did not believe that the opinion of the \ town was in favour of taxing not only themselves for such an object , but their children also . He concluded by proposing , aa an amendment : — " That the Council , on the I 6 th June , 1841 , having decided that there was no necessity for building a New Gaol at Leeds , it would be inexpedient to pass the resolution now proposed by Mr . Alderman Tottie . " This was seconded by Mr . Wright . Mr . Alderman Goodman spoke in favour of the original motion .
Mr . Skelton said the principle upon whieh . the arguments in favour of a New Gaol rested , appeared to be that Wakefield should stand still , and that Leeds alone should go on . Alderman Lupion looked at the question , mainly , in a moral point of view . He thought crime would be more effectually repressed by having a Gaolin the Borough for the punishment of offenders than if those offenders had to be sent to a House of Correction at a distance . Mr . Hayward observed , that the question had been so fully gone into on former occasions , that he should not then trespass on the time of ihe Council , but he must say , that not the slightest new matter
had been introduced to influence them to accede to the proposition of Mr . Tottie . As regarded the question of expence , it appeared according to Mr . Tottie ' s estimate , that the cost of the gaol would be £ 30 , 800 . He ( Mr . Hayward ) hoped that there was not a man in the Council so exceedingly weak as to suppose that that sum would be anything like adequate . They might add £ 20 , 000 to the estimate , and he doubted , even then , if it would be sufficient . Supposing the West ^ Riding magistrates were to adopt the largest of the plans for the enlargement of the House of Correction , which was estimated to cost . £ 100 , 008 , the proportion due from Leeds would only be £ 12 , 500 , instead of the enormous cost which would be entailed upon the borough by building a new gaol .
After some further discussion , in which Alderman Gaunt , Mr . Patrick , ' Mr . Shackle ton , Mr . Bramley , Mr . Jos . Cliff , Alderman Musgrave , Mr . Hall , Mr . Skelton , Mr . Birchall , Alderman Bate-on , Mr . M . Cawood , Alderman Tottie , and others took part , the amendment moved by Mr . Cawood was put to the meeting , and negatived by 30 to 7 . The votes were ordered to be recorded . The followingjFoted for the amendment : —Councillors SkeltoD , Wright , M . Cawood , Nickols , Barker , Hayward , and Butler . Against the amendment : —Alderman Musgrave , Gaunt , Bateson , Smith , Willans , Hebden , Oates , Goodman , Stansfeld , Tottie , Pease , Lupton , Luocock , and Maclea ; Councillir i Cudworth , Birchall , Kelsajl , Watson , Brumfit , Dui ' ton , Barlow , Mitchell , Joshua Bower , Joseph Cliff , March , Snackleton , Marshall , Hall , and John CLff .
Mr . Hayward said he should move another amendment upon that proposed by Mr . Cawood . It was as follows : — " That it would be inexpedient to adopt any resolution which would pledge this Council to build a new gaol for the Borough of Leed * , until tho opinions of the burgesses shall have been ascertained upon the subject , aud that a public meeting be forthwith called by the proper authorities for that purpose . " Mr , Patri ck seconded the amendment . Mr . Alderman Tottie said that as ttie proposition did not point out any means by which the end they had in view could be accomplished , he thought the proposition could only be met with a direct negative . ( Hear , hear . )
Mr . Alderman Musorave thought , after the specimen which they had had of the mode in which the business of publio meetings was conducted , it was enough to deter any thinkiug man from attending them , and if he , as an alderman , was to consent to preside at such meetings as those which they had lately seen in another part of that building , he should consider he was a fool , and should shockingly disgrace himself . ( Hear , hear . ) The question was then put , when there werejfor the amendment , Ayes 7 , Noes 30 . The amendment was therefore negatived . The votes were again recorded on the original proposition , which waa adopted by a large majority » the numbers being— Ayes 30 , Noes 7 .
Mr . Alderman Tottie thea submitted a series of formal resolutions for carrying into effect the one previously adopted , which , being seconded , were put and agreed to . The following gentlemen were appointed a Committee for carrying the resolutions into effeet : —The Mayor , Aldermen Tottie , Pease ^ Hebdeo , Batesdn * Oates , Luccpck ; Councillors Marshall * Atkinson j Howard , Bramley , Cudworth , Joseph Cliff , Nickols , Garland . It waa subsequently ordered , that a copy of the resolutions on the subject of the new gaol should be transmitted to the Clerkof the Veacefor the Riding The Council next went into Committee on fiuancej and sums amounting to £ 3 * 66513 s . 6 d . were ordered to be paid .

" /
On this motion , the following amendment was proposed by Mr . Hay ward and seconded by Mr , Skelton :- ^ . ' v ¦ : ¦ ' ¦;¦ .. ; ¦ . / . ¦• ; . . > ¦/• - ; \ '' That inasmuch a % the legal adviser of this Council has distinctly stated that if the Council appoint a Committee to take charge of the Leeds Improvement Bill , the individuals forming the same can only act in their individual capacity , the Council cannot legally act in the matter .

Cawood , Bakery Joseph Cliff , Marshall , and Garlaiicl . . ¦;' .. . ¦ ¦ - ¦ ¦ •' . ¦ This concluded the business , and the Council adjourned .
Thus ft will be seen that the Whi £ 8 ; confiding in their present majority in the Towu Council , came to the determination to saddle the inhabitants of this borough with the expense of a new gaol . The impolicy of such a step , under the present depressed state of our trade , must be at once manifest to all our readers ; Notwithstanding that it was clearly proved by Mr . Martin ,. Cawood that the building and permanent maintenance of a Borough Gaol would be far more expensive to the burgesses than if the present arrangement with tho West-Riding magistrates were to continue , the Whigs persisted in their intentione , and the " tyrant majority" carried their resolutions . The burgesses will now have to pay a cost of not less
than £ 50 , 000 , besides anannual expence of upwards of £ 2 ^ 000 . Like the defunct Whi g Government , the Whig meinbersof the Town Gouncilaredetermined to commit " ¦ felo-de-se . " They will cat their . own throata—they will act iii opposition t 6 the will and the wishes of the people ; nay , more , those very people upon whom they relied for support against the Tories , they now reject and despise . Nothing could exemplify the truth of this more than the remarks made by Alderman .-Justice Musgrave upon the proposition w ) iioh was made , that a public meeting of the inhabitants should be callevi , and . their wishes consul ted , before the Towa Council , came to any definite resolution oa the subject . This " bright ointment" of the bench
of magistrates stated that nothing in the world should induce him to hold the situation of chairman at a public meetino ; of the inuabitante , " he should consider he would disgrace himself by so doing , " for '" that the recent public meetings about the Improvement Bill were a disgrace to the town . " Softly , softl y ^ Mr . Justice Musgrave . Let us see who would be disgraced most , the inhabitants or the Bench of Justice ? . Is it not notorious that a certain Whig Alderman-Justice of this Borough ordered a boy who was brought before him ^ to be " privately wiped 1 " And is it not an undoubted fact that ;' within , the last few weeks , the same Alderman-Justice actually ordered another person to be ¦ ' floged ? " Now we
tell such Alderman-Justice of the Peace that any mechanic would have felt it a disgrace to have been so illiterate . The Alderman-Justice in question need not ask any one , like Dogberry , to write him down an ass . He has done this most effectually himself . But turning from this "bright luminary of the Benchi '? what shall we say to those person 9 in the council professing to be Radicals , who voted . against a town ' s- meeting ? Alas , aks ! the Geese must now see that the Foxes are too many for them . It is juss as we predicted . The Geese may cackle , cackle , and hiss at the Chartists as they please ; but ' . weiancy . theymu 3 t now candidlyacKnywIedge that the Foxes have served them as we always told
them they would do . Theadvice we should now give to the Chartists , seeing that the Whigs and Radicals in the Town Council , after having been elected by the suffrages ; of the people , are now despising and rejecting them , is this—^ Watch them well . A 3 for the Whigs , they are yoar sworn enemies ; they are themen whosuught the blood of Frost , Williams , and Jones ; they are the men who foment discord , and revolutionary doutrinco , to cuit thf . ii 1 owii purposes , and then imprison and betray the people , whose support they have relied upon ; they are the originators and passers of the atrocious New Poor
Law ! From these men we can expect ho evenhanded justice . They have betrayed ug , and would . on every occasion do it again . But as to the professing radicals , wcisay . - -to thepeople , you now gee their conduct with respect to you . They , like the Whigs , will betray you , and sell you tor a mess of pottage .. Watch them well , then ; and remember that the 1 st of November will come again . Foxes have holes wherein to creep , but we trust that they will not be allowed any more to creep into the wards . We would particularly refer to those who represent the more popular constituencies . Let the Chartists remember their conduct and deal with them accordingly .

Edwards moved the memorial to the magistrates , which set ibrth their distress iu very strong language , and that if their distress was not mitigated and relieved , the consequences would bo fearful to contemplate . Mr . Edwards made a short but an excellent speech on the sufferings of the operatives of the whole kingdom , and called on those who possessed such large heaps of wealth , the produce of their hands , to coma forward at this critical juncturo to relieve their necessities ; . Mr . Dixon seconded the motion , which was carried without a dissentient . Mr . G . Fiinn
moved , "and Mr . Brook seconded , that four persons be deputed to present the memorial to the magistrat&s " , and enforce its prayeri which was also adopted . Messrs .

Tha . meeting then separated . The poor ieliowa seemed in a sad forlorn state , and their countenances bore evident marks of the want of foed . Anticipation of the Income Tax . —A large worsted spinner , and a very pious Baptist , made a reduction m the wages of his wooicombers of twenty
per csnt . last Saturday . Wool that wa 3 5 a . per pound he has now reduced to 41 . ; and for six , months previous to the reduction , the sorts had been made l £ d . or 2 d . per pound worse than they had been ; so that the reduction within the last half year amounts to upwards of forty per cent . ; so much for piety He is not the only one that has made inroads into the comforts of the toil-worn slave . There are masters , in Bradford that are paying their woolcombers the enormous sum of 1 jd .- for combing English wools . Trade is indead very bad ; hundreds of the poor fellows are daily parading the streets without " any employment ; aad we fear their condition is becoming desperate .
