^ . object ! How this defeat is to happen the .-Vbneonfomist does not condescend to enlighten us . The absence ofsnch explanation , however , forces upon us certain conjectures and suppositions , to account for ihe anticipated defeat . We cannot ,, for the life of as , discover hove " the main object" of ths Contere < ce can be defeated , by the return-of well-known and severely-iried U > tvebsal Suffrage advocates , IF that " main object" be the advancement of the principle of TTxttebsai . Suffrage . Ii , however , the " main objee : " -of the promoters of that . Goxjissycs , be not their avowed one ; if they iave , ostensibly , pet TxivfBSAX Suffrage npon their banners , -while they have kept theii real ^ -main . .
object" in the back ground ; if it should happen that their " main object" is not the Suffrage at all bu ; Free Trade ; if it should turn out that this is the case , why , then , we can -easily imagine Jw THAT " main object" be defeated , by " the elections generally terminating * as the Binningliami one has done ! ^ e Caz » imagine su a de eat , and ruth a " calamity , " as the Nonconformist calls it , as this : hut -we cannot possibly imagine hoic the Suffrage " main object" is to be defeated by such mear . s . Tha anticipation of defeat , therefore ,. by the Nonconformist , under these circumstances , raises a suspicion , to give it the mildest term , that the " main object" of the Co ; orER £ se 2-caller 3 is not the onenrfole one' .
The Nonconformist next discusses the . possible Tennis to the uneducated masses of this anticipated defeat , and then falls foul of Mr . O'Cox . voRin ' a style and manner that hut too plainly show ihat his ohj ici and the object of his employers , is to " ge : rid of Feasgcs . " We wall have . his own words , however , sad comment on them afterwards . Addressing himself to the working classes , he says : — " The time is fully come far holding up thai idol to the steady view ef their own plain and stron ? common
sense—for dragging him forth from the dim Kgfct of his ovm oirn sanctuary , from m : dst his owa prefesaocs and Sclf-ianafltlons , aDd exhibiting the man in his osm colours and dress . We shall not ianitate" him in the use of scsirilons epithets—nor mouth , in the tone of ridiculous gmndiicqnsnce , tbe lasrnage of bcfit&ery and issult These ¦ wtapons xtb leave to him whom tfcey te ^ t tewein . But ve nsk the nitention of working men to a few facts , calmly stated , " ami thereupon ¦ we cheerfully commend them to their own sober cont ' ttSJjES .
" 11 cm hardly he forgotten by the Libourm ? clasps , that the principles embodied in tbe Pe ^ ple ' a Ctai ' er , were enounced loDg siace , by middle-class patriots ; and that , actuated by irhatever motive ,-several lsiding men , now figuring in public life , assisted in the production of that celebrated decament . Noiselessly , but not unsucoassfullj ' , these principles were znslrjig their appeal to ths judgment of society , when 3 ir _ Fearzus O'Connor appeared upon the stage .- let ¦ as do biin jnstice . He Drought to the cause indomitable energy , coxaddersble skill , uinrearied activityand , in an ill-fated day , the doctrine ot physical force- He organised what be found nnshapen and incoherent—he created a machinery ¦ which was powerful
both for rood and evil—and he employed it for the latter . By bitter denunciations , by fomenting the worst passions of frnmsn nature , by dogmatism the most intolerable , sad insolence which no spirit having aspark of . manbocii ccnJd broet , he aroie from ibe people's rants Every mladls-thss leader , seemingly unable to rest until the stage was left clear for himself alone . The fruits of his violence speedily ripened—myriads of woifciug men were goaded into open coLSict with the government—and the znan , who had { laid the train , aad kindled tbe match , slunk away to Ireland beyond reach of danger . Thoroughly defeated in this hi 3 own Bcheme of policy , he returned to begin answ his pernicious course . As though secret
conspiracy , incendiarism , and bloodshed , were not enough to destroy any vestiges of sympathy which the middle classes might feel for the -worfcra ? men , lie cvunstneU annoyance in a Bcaiceiy less Gfknsrve shape , snti talked on Ms" foUuwers to a disturbance of every pnblic meeting , and denounced as " humbug" every effuit fcr sdminis £ r * tive reform . He succeeded but too well in gaining the only end which will fairly-accouut for his proceedings . He rendered the breach between the two classes all bnt irreparable . Bj " associating with tha princ 5 pl 6 B of tbe Cbarttr his own
ferocity , be made tham gHnV in the a&sirila ot respectable men . ind then availing himself of the disgust his own work bad excited , be turned to the labouring classes , and stiHml&ted , by producing before them the evidences of this disgust , their already hot - - -sentmect against all above them . He wa 3 now without a rival in the leadership of the masses ; and as , one by one ' , men cf cooler hezfts , of sterner integrity , of more disinterested hearts , rose into estimation with the unenfranchised , he denounced them with virulence the most incessant , a&d iffixtd to them the badge cf infamy . "
yovr , labouring people , you have had Mr . CrCox-5 oe amongst you , associating and + 3 rkingj 3 jnon 2 pt you . for bow eight years . Tnat intercourse has given yon opportunities ofjudging of his real character and worth . Your " orr a plain and strong common sense " would enable you to make ooservanoss , and correct ones too , respecting any man who mixed among yoa as Mi . O C « vsoahas done , in a much less time than ei >; ht years . The Nonconformist says thai the above picture * ' exhibits the man in his own colours'and dre ;? . " What say you * Remember , that it is painted by a man who knows nothing of Mr .
O'Coxnob but what be has learned from his cla = 3 associations . He never worked with Mr . O'Co'sbH , as you have done . He never mixed with him , either in public or private ; and yon have done both . We question whether ever he was in the same room with Mr . O'Coxsoa , or would even be able to point him out personally , if he was required to do so : and yet this man , with this degree of knowledge , presumes to paint , FOR YOU , a portrait of a " "ii-n in his own coloars and dress" wtom you haTe known so well and so loii . !! 11 There never was a more glaring instance of c ' ass ignorance and prejadice than aids same " portrait " -by the Nonconformist !
We shall pass over the garnish with ¦ wiicb'ihe savoury msss is served np , and come at once to tie * few facts , calmly stated . '" '" It can hardly he forgotten , by the labouring classes , " says the Nonconformist , " that the principles of the People ' s Pinner were enounced long since hy middle-class patriots . " Tha wcrkiiii ; people cer ' ainly have not forgotten that it is long since they first enounced tha principles csutaiued in the People ' s Charter ; nor have they forgotten the persecution and suffering that have accrued to theai for such enunciation ! As for the middlecLiSS patriots of * ' long s ' . nc ? , * the ' less that is said on that head the belter . for the
NoTiCOnfyrmlsi and his middle-class friends The greatest enemies that the working people , the " CLOuncers of the principles eu . bc . died in : he People ' s Charter , " have had to contend with , have been the middle cia-ses . It was the" middle classes who hounded on the Government in 1815 , 17 , 18 , and 191 It was the middle classes who approved of the suspension of the H-il-as Corpus act , and the passing of the ever-K > -be-execra : ed SIX ACTS . It was the middle classes who raised the yell of exultation when the prisons were filled with hundreds of victims who were dragged hundreds of miles from their homes , and made to
endure lorrures so excruciating as cause some o : them to comtai : suicid-e to procure * a happy release' I It was the middle classes , who ca : ied upm the Government to pass STRONG MEASURES io pui the ** enouncexs of the principles embodied in the People ' s Charter' down 1 Is was the middle classes who applauded the apprehending of hundreds oi u enouncers , " the cooping them up in dungeons for months together , aud then turning them ou : again , without bringing the shadow of a charge against them , or even telling them zrhy they had betn incarcerated ! It was the middle classes who raised the loud peal of " uxghtek" at Caxsing ' s brutal jes : about the sufferings of " the revered and ruptured Codes , " when the bowels had been shaken out of his body by the deprirers of his personaJliberty I It was the middle classes who approved of the
Inaenmiiy-BUl bein « passed , to screen the authors of this and similar atrocities , from the legal consecuencts of their brutal acts . It was the middleclasses who formed the l-ody of the Yeomanry Corps atid the Tolumeer Associations , under the command of some few sprigs of a spnrious aristocracy : It was the middle classes who went vri : h cewly-Ehsrpened sibreSj and courage inspired by drink , to spill the biood of a number of unarms and "czciLzdkisj " enouxicers of the principles embodied in the People's Charter , " on the field o : TsntRVOo , on the luL of ArgTirt , io ' . y : It was the middle elates who went -n : o tit- j iry-boxes , aid convicted Hr . vr ami CAia-w :,- c-nr ut" hivics : " enounced the principle ? vEL .-Jicii in : he Pt . o ; -Ii : ' s Ciarter "' - Ah : ro ! tht ntiddle eli « i 5 .

It Us trne that Bvsr , and Coibett , and Cartwxight belonged to the middle classes at the time they laboured with , and for , the people 5 and it is equally true , that for so labouring ; for identifying themselves with the people ; for " enouncing the principles embodied in the People ' s Charter , " they were persecuted beyond measure by their own order I They were represented in exactly the same light as the Nonconformist , the organ of the middle classes of our day , represents Mr . O'Cossob They were denounced on every hand . Consult the venal prints of the day ; and you will find exactly parallel " portraits' to the one we haTe just given , professing to " exhibit the men in their own colours and dress . " It is a very old middle class game that the Nonconformist is now playing ! _ _ —
" Noiselessly , but no : unsuccessfully , these principles were making their appeal to the judgement of society , when 3 Ir . O'Cosnob . appeared upon the stage , " Thi 3 sentence exhibits the writer's total ignorance of what he pretends to write about . It is untrue , in whatever sense it is taken . If it is made to refer to tbe" long since" the writer had just spoken of , the facts we have narrated respecting the persecution of the " enonncers" of " these principlee" show that the " appeal" was any thing bnt a " noiseless" one ! If it is made to refer to the
exaet time of Mr . O'Coxxon s appearance on the politieal rt 3 ge in England , it is equally untrue : for u these principles " were then certainly not " successfully " making their appeal to the jnegment of society . " At the period of Mr . O'Cosnoh ' s entree upon political life amongst us , society was drunk , and unable to exercise any judgment at all 1 It was when we had obtained the Bill , the whole bill , and > othi . n « bet the Bill ! It was when the working people had been ca joled and betrayed by the middle classes into the denunciation of those very principles which this writer tells H 3 were " noiselessly , but not
unsuccessfully making their appeal to the judgment of society ! " It was when the middle-classes had sacceeded in the procurement of the denunciation of the patriot Hrxr by sections of the working people , for his firm " enunciation"' of " those principles , " ' and his exposure of the Reform Bill fraud ! It was at this period that Mr . O'Co 5 > " » b came amongst us ; and it was his "lennnciatioc" of " those principles , " ¦ when the nation had got a little sobered , that caused their " appeal tt > the judgment of society " to be listened to ; and has eventually caused the patrons of the Nonconformist to ostensibly espouse them '
Good God ! Look at the position of tha Movement at the period of Mr . O'Connor ' s coming amongst us , and then compare it with our position n » w ! The agitation for the principle of Uxivebsax
SCFfBAGX all bnt dead . The people split up into j little sections , under sectional leaders , venting forth ' their grievances in a discordant and uaconnected manner . Ko concert ; no oneness of purpose ; no ' organization ; no knowledge . even of each other ' s doings ! Hu . xt dead ! Cowext , soon after , aiso ; removed from the stage of tbe living . No leader ;; no Tallying point ; no as ^ rttion I The people a prey j to contending factious ; ready to give their ** sweet j voices" almost to every humbug who ask « d for them :
and afraid to offend their leaders amongst j the middle classes , by ' asking for the full j measure of justice . It was when the Movement j was in this sorry condition , ihat Mr . O'CtwrsoB wa 3 ; made a present Jof to the English Radicals . They J accepted him ! He came amongst them . He , at ' , first , inscribed upon his banners , " Usitebsal Sct- ' ? BifE asd Ko Surrender f and from that daj to ; shis has gone on from conquering to conquer on ; behalf of that principle , until he has made the party ! who espouse it tha only powerful party , as far as ' pnblic opinion is . concerned , in the state ! Right ;
well do we know the opening of nis mission in Leeds ; to re-plant the banner of Uniteesal Strr » iiASB j amongst US , and establish the Radical Associa-1 tioa . The invitation to Mm , on that occasion , was given by two working men . I He attended to their call . At that period the Leeds ; Times had passed into the hands of a new conductor , j Befjretime it had not ranged itself under any ban- ; ner , but Lad professed to be a no-party advocate ; ] taking care always , however , io advocate the return of Whigs . when an elec : ioa was at hand . It was
judged prudent on tha p 3 rt of the new Editor to . mako it more decided in its tone . He proposed to ' join in the project of bringing CFCoxxor to Leeds ; and his offer of help was accepted . Several meetings of tbe Committee were held in the Editor ' s room ; : and the large meeting placa in the Com mereial ' Building was engaged partly at ihe risk of the ; publisher of t ) ie-Times and partly at the risk of the i friends who had first invited Mr . O'Connor . It was soon found , however , by these working men , that i with their new allies , "Uxivebsal Scffeagh was a : great Ivglear . " Could not Mr . O'Co . nnoh be i induced to substitute Household for Umtzbsal . "
" He will drive all respectable people away . "; " Hi'tsehold Suffrage is as mnch as can be reasonably agitated for , with any chance of public support ' 01 success . " The answers were , by the working men , that " they could listen to no compromise . " " If the respectable people were scared away by the bugbear ' of U . viveesai . Suffrage , they must be used to it , and ! then perhaps they would not deem it so very fright-. ; ful . " On the day of the public meeting , Mr . O'Cou- ; > ' 0 K met the Csmmittes in the JEJitor ' s Room . There be was set npon , and implored to aban- ' don Ux ] Vek ? aL Sctfhags . Counsellor Waxes , then accounted a Radical , was present , and ; pkaded , as if for life , that Mr . O'Con / you would give way , and consent to advocate ,
Mouschcld , instead of Universal . The answer was dignified , decisive , and" plain : — " I come here on a mission . I am sent by the working men of London to plant the standard of Umvlrsal Sitffiuoe amongst the working people of Leeds . If there are but three in l ^ eeds who ¦ will join wi : h me , we Trill j :-in : bus to no compromise or surrender of the shadow of a shade of the fall measure of justice will I listen . " After this he went to the public meeting . He explained his mission . He spoke home to the hearts of the working ppople . He enlisted their sympathies on the side of right and justice : and from that day may be dated the political redemption of Leeds from the hands of faction !
F-oa Leeds he proceeded all over the country . He aiso visited Scotland . He ron ? ed the dormant energies of the people . He infused into them a new spirit . He imparted to them a portion of his own " unwearied activity . " He organized them . He directed their attention to one point . He made them acquainted with each other , and secured amongst them co-operation for an undivided parpose . He made the agitation Teally ftrmidable ; and it vra =, therefore , determined by those who had hitherto lived on tho people ' s divisions , and who bad been great men in their little spheres , to get " rid of Peasccs . "
And now we come to explain the reason why the public have > een the hatching and blowing-up of so niany plots and schemes to accomplish this purpose . Many psople have wondered to find professing Radicals and Cnmists engaged in the accomplishment of these schemes . They have vrouder-jd how it could possibiy come to pass , that men who were bound to confess that Mr . O'Coksob worked so , as hardly ever man worked ; that he "had brought to the cause indomitable energy , considerable skill , aad unwearied activity ; " they have wondered how it could happen that such a man should be conspired against , and plots laid to accomplish his riddance , by professing friends : when we have given them our explanation they will wonder no longer .
Mr . 0 'Cox > "Os ' s great crime , ail along , from the first hour of his introduction amoagst ns io the present , has been , that h « w& ? , and is , an asti-Halthuslo ; ; that he was the friend of labour , and an opponent of the dominant infiaenee and power of cantai- This is the head and front of his offending . Had he been & MVithusian ; had he been a supporter of the hellish principle upon which the New Poor Law is based , and a Repeal of the Corn Laws note advocated ; had he been inclined to
amuse t ' ns people wiih the question of the feuffrage , while he was aiding in fixing oa the chains of silvery so t : gh : ly a ; to leiv- ; - the poor victims no liberty at all ; had he only holden his to : i « u 2 on the mighiy ^ uertioa of Lasovk ' s rights ; bad he cr-nseatcd bo : to expose th ; infirrs . 1 prcjf c : < of New Poor Lavr coiicoetcrs and enfe-roers ; had he only dose ihis , h : wc-ul-J hare been bailed by those T 7 llt > haT ?

as the best tool that could have been put into their hands ! But he was top honest . He saw who the real enslavers of the working classes were . He saw the projects that had been formed for their complete and effectual debasement . He knew the worthlessness of that pretended philosophy , which countenances the extirpation of a portion of the human . race , because of a surplusage ! He gave utterance to his sentiments . He spoke home to the hearts and understandings of his aadicors . He Hid naked and bare , the schemes of the Malthusians . ~ ^—_ . .,, .
He ranged himself on the side of Labour , and taught the Labourer how to Jcnow and how to estimate his friend . He helped to turn the tide of public opiuon on this question ; and it is because of this ; it is because he has been a stumbling-block in the way of the Free-trading New-Poor-Lawiog Malthusians ; it is because he has unveiled their hideous visages . and exposed their horrible deformity ; it i 3 because of these things , and these alone , that one section of pretended advocates of Universal Suffrage have plotted and conspired to " get rid of Feargus . "
Thi 3 conduct on the part of Mr . O'Coxob has earned for him the uncxtinguishable hatred of the Places , the Hmss , the Roebucks , the War-» cbto > 's , and every disciple of the school of MaLthcs . It 13 thiB conduct which has caused the employing of every engine by this school , to procure the political destruction of this " indomitable " opponent . This conduct caused the establishment of the Working Man ' s Association , where the working men were to do without leaders ; and where none but working men were to take part . This conduct caused the employment of emissaries from this same Working Man ' s Association to go through the country to form branch Associations , on this same principle of no
leadership ; the emissaries living ail the time they were so employed on money furnished by their leaders , Joe Hcjie and Fbaaky Pla « e ! 11 It was this condnct on the part of Mr . O'Connor , that caused the numerous slights and insults to he heaped upon Mm by the tump of the London Malthusians ; and the numerous plans and concoctions to prevent him from having the privilege to address the public audiences . It was the reasons arising from this conduct on Mr . O'Connor's part that prompted ihe Fox and Goose scheme , to " get rid of Feargns ; " and we need no better evidence than this " portrait" of the Nonconformist ' s to shew us that those reasons have had iovie weight in the formation and developement of the Complete Suffrage scheme itself . .

The Sincerity and Sympathy of the Complete Suffragists —C / JDOJj . thissubject , DuncanRobinson calls attentionto thefollowing facts : — " A meeting of delegates ftom the various traces , shops , and factories , in and around Glasgow , called by placard , to discuss the propriety of sending delegates to the Conference which is to be held at Birmingham , on the 27 th of December , arid that of advising means to raise the funds necessary for effecting Buch an object , was held in the Chartist Church on the 15 th of November . There were present on that occasion ifortj-thiee delegates . They appointed a deputation : to : wait on the Directors of the Charter Association , and also that of the Complete Suffrage Association , respectfully soliciting the co-operation of those parties with
them - . m . their undertaking .

Sir , —The' Bristol Councillors ; of the National Charter Ascociation having seen in the Star of Saturday last , your rematKa upon the letter of Mr . Bairstow , in connexion with his expences as ona of the Executive , deem it their duty to make a few observations thereon , inasmuch as their locality is one with others referred to by you . What we wish to show you is , that Bristol has had no desire to engage lecturers to be paid by the country at large ; but Has always , although at times
with some conaiUerable dimcuU . y , depended upon her own resources . In the ruantli of June > in the present year , the Bristol Councillors entered into ah-engagement with Mr . Bairstow as a lecturer for three months , at the weekly salary of 35 s . per week . Jnst upon this Mr . Bairstow was elected on the Executive : he reached Bristol on the 27 tb of June , aod lift on the 2 d of July , tbe first sitting of the present Executive having been appointed to take place on the 1 th at Manchester . You will thus perceive that Mr . B . ' s first visit to us ( . unconnected with tho Executive ) was just one week : for which we paid him , as
Salary for one week , £ 1 15 s . Travelling txpences , £ 2 10 s . Before Mr . B . left us to attend to his duties on the Executive , be infoiineil us , that his election would prevent his fulfilling the engagement he had enteT « U into with us ; but tbatno doubt he would visit us under the auspices of the Executive . ¦ We told him that we should be happy to engage him for six weeks , subject to the general teima ofi the Executive . On the 31 st of Julyj Mr . B-. again visited us , but not upon the terms of agreement . He visited Cheltenham , Stroud , Gloucester , Bath , Trowbridge , and Btistol , We always paid him the . sum tie demanded of us ; and , in adaltwn to this , Bath and Trowbridge having givtn him nothisig , upon n . a seiuin to Btistol wejpaid him me half of the expences incurred by him in visiting these two towns .
You will thus see , Sir , that the old locality of Bristol bus not been engaging talent at the txper . ee of the Association ; in fact , 'it never has dona so . To prove this , we need only state that upon the visit of the Executive to Bristol ta February of the present year , tht » Bristol men paid the whole of their tspericesef board and lodging during their stay , oue week ; their waged going on at the same . tact . Signed , By order aad on behalf of tha Bristol Councillors , ¦ ' ! . H . O . MON , Sub-Sec . Bristol , Nov . 29 th , 1 S 42 .

EVACUATION QF AFFGHANISTAN . GOVERNMENT GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARYU ' tBLISHED BY AVTHORiTY . ) PROCLAMATION . Secret Department , Simla , Oct 1 , 1841 . The Government of India directed its army to pass , the Indus , in order to expel ftoui Aff ^ haniataa a Chief believed to be hostile to British interests , and to replace upon his throne a Sovereign represented to be friendly to those intereste , and popular with his former subjects . ' . '¦ -: ' ' ¦ ¦ .. ¦ ' ¦ ' \ . ; .. .. ¦ . The Chief , belfeved to be hostile became a prisoner , and the Sovereign represented to be popular was replace ' d upon hia threne ; but , after events which brought into question . his fidelity "to the Government by which he was restored , he lost by tho hands of au assassin the throne'he bad only held amidst insurrections , and his death was preceded and followed by still existing anarchy . . . ,: ¦ v ; .
Disasters unp&TsiUeled in their extent , unless by the errors in which they originated , and by the treachery by which they were completed , have in one short cair . - paign been avenged npon every scene of past misfortuno ; ; ind repeated victories in the field , and . the capture of tbe > cities and citadels of Ghuzaee and Cabal , have again attached the opinion of invincibility to the Brilish aims . The British army in possessian of Afghanistan wlU now be withdrawn to the Sutlej . . The Governor-General will leave it to the Afghans themselves to create a governtheut amidBt the anarchy which is the consequence of their crimes . To force a Sovereign upon a reluctant people would be as inconsistent with the policy : as it i « with th ^ priheiples of the British Governnicnt , tending to place the arms and resources cf that people at tha disposal of the first invader , and to impose the . burden of supporting a Sovereign without the prospect of benefit from his alliance . ;
The Governor-General will willingly recognise any government approved , by the AfFgbans themselves , which shall appear desirous and capable of maintaing friendly * elations with nfei s bourjng States . Content with the limits nature appears to have assigned to its empire , the Cfovernment of India will devote all its efforts to the establishment and maintenance of general peace , to the protectioa ef the Sovereigns and Chiefs , its aHies , and to tho prosperity ani happiness of its own faithful subjects . "' The rivers of the Punjaub and the Indus , and the mountainood passes and thia barboarous tribes of Affgbanistan , will be placed between the British army and on enemy approaching from the West , if , indeed , such an enemy there cau be , and no longer between the arm ; and it Bupplies .
The enormous expenditure requited for the Buppott ot a large fores , in a false military position , at a distance from its own frontier and its own resources , will 110 longer arrest every measure for the improvement of the country and of the people . The combined army of England and of India , superior in equipment , in discipline , in valour , and ia the officers by whom it is commanded , to any force which can be opposed to it in Asia , wiil stand in unjjsBailable strength upon its own soil , and for ever ! under the bleasinga of Providence , preserve the glorious empire it has won , in security and in honour . The Governor-General cannot fear the misconstruction of bis motives in thus frankly announcing to surrounding states the pacific and conservative policy of his government Afghanistan and China have aeen at once the forces at his disposal , and the effect with which they can be applied . .
Sincerely attached to petce for the sake of the benefits it confers upon the people , the Governor-General is resolved that peace shall be observed , and will put forth the whole power of the British Government to coeixe the . state by which'it shall be infringed . By order ef : The Right Hon . the Governor-General of India , T . H . MadDOCK , Secretary to the Government of India with the Governor-General .

THE LATE WHOLESALE INFANTICIDE IN THE FOREST OF DEAN . DE 4 TH OF FRANCES BENNETT , THE MURDERER OF HER CHILDREN . Gloucester , Saturday . —? Few occurrences , have excited a more painful interest in this quarter than the investigation which terminated in the committal of Frances Bennett from Ruardeah , in the Forest of Dean , to the county gaol in this city , to await her trial at the assists . The circumstances have been stated , and are shortly these : —Franoes Bennet , after the death of her husband , by whom she had .. 6 everal children , lived with a man named Yapp , a haulier , the children by marriage having gone elsewhere . About a month ago , Bennett , under the apprehension that she was about to die , made a disclosure to a clergyman , iu the presence of several persons , to tho
effiect that ahehad six children by Yapp , but none of them had been allowed to live ; Bhe having suffocated them immediately after birth . She told where the remains of the bodies would be found . The latest murder , according to th ^> eonfessiori of the woman , was perpetrated about CliriBtmiis last year ^ and the spot which she indicated as containing the remains was found on examination to conceal the most perfect skeleton of any . The truth of this horrid confession having in this way been placed beyond a doubt , information waz sent to John . Coolie , Esq ., one of the county coroners , who instantly proceeded from Gloucester to Ruardean to institute a-n investigation . The witnesses examined on tho inquest consisted chiefly of tho persons to whom the . woman had made the confession , including the clergyman who had
communicated with the magistrate on the subject , and the persons who Lad found tho remains of the bodieB . In course of the examination of the clergyman by the coroner , it came out that he had had a second interview with ihe wretched woman , none being preaent but themselves , and that she had made some additional disclosures . The rev . Gentleman , however , on the ground that what he was told upon this occasion was mixed up with his " spiritual " duties , refused to communicate any particulars , although pressed to do so by the coroner . The woman , moveovkT , began to deny that she had made any euch confession as that sworn toby the witnesses , but enough had ; been proved to justify the jury in returning a verdict of ¦ wilful murucr against Bennett and her paramour * Yapp . The latter was instantly removed to Gloucester , but the state of Bennett ' s health
v * as such as to induce the coroner to-delay the order for her removal till it could be effected without danger . Oh the afternoon of Thursday , the 17 th instant , the miserable woman arrived at the county gaolia a fly , attended by Mr . Bird , a medical men . She was carried up stairs to the hospital , and on being placed on the bed , Bhe said , "Now I will die happy . She died early on the Friday morning . This day aa inquest was held oh the body , before John Cooke , JEtq ; . the coroner , who conducted the investigation at Ruardean . Disease had reduced the body to a perfect skeleton , but the appearance of the features was more pleating than otherwise . Mv . Cooke , y » ho eaw - the deceased alive about three : weeks ago , remarked that her face had . undergone little change . ¦ . ' ..- ¦
Tne first witness examined was Eliza Gansmore , one of the nurses attached to the gaol , who-stated that she was . directed to wait upon the deceased shortly after her arrival . Deceased often thanked God that she had been removed , and said that she was much happier in gaol than at h&me . The Coroner here stated that a rumour was abroad that the deceased was in the family way , and he asked the witness if she could speak to the point 1 The witness stated that she asked the question of deceased , and she stated that she was not . Deceased said that she was only thirty-eight years of age .
Maria Nutta ) , another nurse , was next examined . She said thai' she was present when the deceased died on Friday morning , and was with hex some days previous . She asked witness to read and pray to he * . Sometimes wienahe wasreadisg th » deceased would gay * ' Stop i wait till I'm better , " and when she recovered she would ask her to go on . As her death approached , she seemed to feel coatested . She was sensible to the last . She said that she had been ill for about twelve months . Mr . Hicktfs , the surgeon , stated that the complaint of which the deceased died was pulmonary consumption , and , in his opinior , the removal from Rnardeau had neither injured norbenefitted her . Sheseemt-d to'be aware tnat she could survive ouly for a , few days . She mentioned to him and others that she had been Sent to gaol , charged with the murder of her children . The jury returned a verdxt of' Died from r . ataral causes . " ' ' ' _
. . Yapp , on hpiii K told « f tho death of Bennett wept bitterly . The body was buried by the K-ls . vivca of the deceased .

As to worldly means , the murderers were comfort able . -.. Indeed it is ^ alleged that the onl y index to their brutal conduct is to be found in the circumstance that Bennetts husband settled his property upon her , but . with the restrict ion that should she mar . * y again the property was to go to his children . It wa 3 the desiro to reUiu the property which t > robab ! y prevented her marriage with Yapp , and ekvy body , knows how one crime leads to another . - ; '

Time warns ns that we must now close this somewhat lengthy article . We have not yet finished . The course we had chalked out is far from being gone over . We have yet to detail other and minor reasons for the desire to " get rid of Fergus ; " but which are necessary to be tnowa in order to a full consideration and understanding of the subject . We have also to fling back the foul and deliberate lie . op the Nonconformist , that Mr . O'Connor " brought to the cause , the doctrine of Physical Force . "' We have
also to expose the cowardly miscreant where he charges the outbreaks of 1839 to the effects of Mr . O'Cossor ' s violence , and the horrible imputation contained in the _ assertion , that " the man who iaid the train and kindled the match , slunk away to Ireland beyond reach of danger . ' * We intend , to give a full history of those transactions , and cause the blame of them to fall on the right heaJs . We have also to meet his assertion , that Mi-. O'Connor caused the defection of the middle-class-leaders . We have to meet him thoroughly and completely ; and purpose to do it .
This , however , most rest till another week . Wo have neither tima nor space for more of if at present . We cannot conclude without calling on the working people to complete the good work they have so well begun . Follow the example of Birmingham I Elect to thi 3 Conference men whom you knnv as advocates of Universal Sum > ra » s ; men who have proved their devotion to the principle ; men who will not temporize , or turn , to the right hand or to the left ; men who will not make the advocacy of the Suffrage a stepping-stone for the realization of the schemes and projects of the Free Traders . We implore you to send men in whom
yon can place implicit confidence ; to listen to no proposals about two delegates from one association , and two from the other ; to hearken to no compromises , no arrangements , no bargaining ; for you may depend on it that where such is the case , a sale is to be eff-cted , let whoever may receive the price I To the work , then , working-men ! Look about you ! Choose men with cool heads and honest hearts . Give them your instructions in full . Tell them what you want them to do . Bid them go do it ; and this Conference , respecting which there is so much ALARM in some quarters , shall tend to the consolidation of our rank 3 , the augmentation of our power , and the advancement of our principles . In your hands we leave the issue !! God speed you !
