Arthur , who was then in London to receive judgment in the Court of Queen's bench . The greatest anxiety prevailed ; and the news of a rule beiDg granted for certain objections to be argued next term , was received with pleasure and satisfaction , as affording ground for hope that the late verdict found at Lancaster msv > et be set aside . On Sunday morning , the

      members of tbe Council met at the same place for dispatch of business , when Mr . Qx-orge ( -rraham was called to tbe chair . As many other persons had assembled to hear tbe news in Cooper aDd Richard's case , Mr .

      himself , to obtain the names of as many persons as possible , who are anxious to support the agitation for tbe People ' s Charter ; and willing to become subscribers to tbe same , and that they hand them in to the Secretary , with a view to divide them into sections for ihe convenience of collectors , " A number of names were enrolled . Mr . Bowmau then called the attention of the Council to Mr . Hill's letter which appeared in tbe second edition of the Star , and observed , that this appeal should be heartily responded to , for it appeared there was a chance , providing great exertions were made on the part of the people , of the verdicts

      found at Lancaster being set aside altogether ; and surely , every exertion should be made for such u purpose for it would be mu . h easier to do this ; than to support their frenda and families , should they get imprisonment , which would certainly be the case , if tbe means were not immediately raised for fighting the battle in a skilful and proper manner . After a few observations from some other members , arrangements were entered into for a general collection for this purpose . We know tbe Chartists of Carlisle , and we have ne doubt but that they will do their duty nobly ; for they have never yet been behind , when necessity called for their exertions .

      LEEDS DISTRICT . —A general council meeting of this district was held on Sunday , in the Chartist room , Wopdhouse ; it was the best and most influential meeting tbat has been held for a length of time . None of those disgraceful scenes took place , which for some time past have been of incalculable injury to the cause in this town . All this baa happily got banished , by tbe withdrawal of about half a dooen individuals from tbe Association ; and now every thing it conducted with that spirit of unity which cbaraetanzad the movement this time twelve months back . Not a ' word of ill feeling was heard on Sunday ; none of those abusive epithets , heaped upon one another , because one does not happen to think as tha other . Instead of this , the questions that came before the meeting were

      discussed with calmness , and with an earnest desire to do the work for which all bad been sent , and to do it in such a manner aa would be a benefit to the district instead of an injury . The district will now flourish ; for union has onee more planted its standard within our borders . Many propositions were discussed , among which were the establishing a sebsol , and to have tteme talented man to resld * in the town to be the master , and likewise to lecture occasionally . The secretary was directed to correspond with one for this pnrpose . Another proposition was , that Mr . William Bell , of Hey wood , should be engaged to deliver seven lectures . After a variety of other business was disposed of , tbe meeting was dissolved , every person present being highly delighted with the proceedings .

      SUADERXtANB . —Mr . Beesley lectured here on Monday night , in the lectmeroom . in Clark ' s passage , to a very good audience .

The subject for Sunday ' s debate is , " Is it or is it not the duty of Christians to become Chartists . " The time of opening the debating society is from half-past two till five o ' clock . BRISTOL . —The Bristol Chartist Youths held their anniversary meeting on Monday evening , at tbe Ship , Earle street , when they partook of a substantial supper , served up by a Chartist lady , much to the satisfaction of the guests . After the cloth was removed , the evening was concluded with democratic toasts and songs .

      CBOTDEN . —At tha usual weekly meeting of the Chartists of Croyden the letter of Mr . Hill was read , and the members coinciding with the same , it was unanimously agreed that the sum of ten shillings be sent to the Northern Slar Office , for the purpose mentioned in Mr . Hill ' s letter * BHADFORD .-Tho Chartists of Little Horton met oa Sunday morning , when the statements of Mr . Linton on the produce of his small portion of land were read from the Star , and created much surprise among the Chartists , who determined to commence raising a fund for the purpose proposed by Mr .

      The Chartists of New Leeds met in their room on Sunday morning , when the letter of Mr . O'Connor was read from the Star .

They hope the members will attend to the time appointed . On Sunday evening , Mr . Smyth lectured in the Council Room , on class legislation and the monopoly of the land . BOLZIIFXRTH . —It having boen announced by placard that an address would be delivered in the Chartists' Koom , Ribbledeu Road , on the evening of Monday , May 1 st , by Mr . J . riobson , of Leeds , at the time appointed , that gentleman made his

      appearance in the Chartists' Room . Yes , thank God ! the Chartists have a room of their own ; and such a room that no stranger enters it without being struck with surprise and delight—surprise , that a room so large and convenient should be in the possession of a few working men , and delight at the neatness and elegance of the interior . Every part of tho room is whitewashed in the most perfect manner . The moment you enter the eye meets the portrait of the immortal Robert Emmett ; on the same side is the plate of tho National Convention , and the portrait of the victimised Froet . Then , turning more to the right , and at the upper end of the room , the eye meets the portrait of that lion of democracy , Feargua O'Connor . It

      hangs in tho middle of a semicircular wreath , composed of laurel and yew ; over head ia tbe star of glory , composed of the tri-colour , the emblem of democracy ; beneath is the plate representing the procession attending tho great National Petition of 3 , 317 , 702 signatures to the House of Commons in 1842 . To tho right of Feargus O'Connor , Esq , is tho portrait of Thomas Slinrcby Duncombe , Esq ., M . P ., and William Cobbett , Esq . On his loft is the portrait of P . M . M'Douall and G neral Arthur O'Connor . The opposite end of tho room is similarly adorned with evergreens and portraits , amongst them stands conspicuous the portrait of the king of the factory child , Richard Ostler . Upon one of the binders which cross the

      room is inscribed in large letters beautifully formed of evergreens , the following inscription 5— " National Charter Association Room . " And on the other , — " Peace and comfort is our object' , In the centre , between th « two binders is suspended a large transparent tricolour lantern , and upon it is inscribed the word "liberty . " The whole of the arrangements are f o beautiful , and strike the eye with such pleasing effect , that to be believed they must be seen . The room on the present occasion was filled to suffocation . Mr . William Cunningham , a whole hog Chartist , was unanimously elected chairman . The Chairman having opened the business of tho meeting , Mr . Joshua Hobson presented himself and was received with loud cheers . He commenced his address

      by stating that he was neither a professed orator nor a lecturer ; that he waa nothing but a working man like themselves ; that he should do nothing more than tell them a number of plain facts , in a plain common-Benae mannner ; for though he could not boast of shining abilities , he hoped they would give him credit for being possessed of a small share of common sense . He then entered upon the distressed situation of the country , showing that the distress of the country had been brought about by the combined operation of high taxation , paper money , and machinery . He showed how the people had been robbed by the funding system , and entered into such explanations with respect to it as were quite new to a large number of his auditors . He

      showed the hollow pretentious of the League , and that if they could accomplish all they aimed at , nobody would be benefited but the tax-eater and men of fixed money incomes . The question of the land also received a portion of his attention , and he gave it as his opinion that there would be no lasting and radical oure for the distress of the people until they were in possession of the land and enfranchised . For the space of nearly ivro hours Mr . Hobson occupied the attention of Mb auditors with his statements of facts and figures , and sat down amidst thunders of applause . The Chairman then intimated , that if any gentleman wished to say anything in opposition to what had been advanced by Mr . Hobsou , he should be happy to hear

      him , and would endeavour to procure for him an impartial and patient hearing . —Mr . George Robinson , a member of the anti-Corn Law League , &tepped forward and said that he should be happy to avail himself of the offer made by the Chairman . He said he had not attended the meeting with any intention of making a speech . He had come totally unprepared to do so . He had not even taken any notes of what had been said by the proceeding speaker ; but a friend of his had done so , and as soon as he could read them , would proceed with his remarks . But instead of making only a few remarks , he commenced a speech which lasted more than an hour , and in a very feeble and confused manner , ran over all the

      arguments usually advanced upon the subject of free trade by the party to which he belongs . Mr . J . Hobson again presented himself to the meeting , During his former address , he had shown but little animation ; but now his whole soul was fired with the materials that his opponent had given him to work upon . His eyes sparkled with intelligence , his countenance beamed with joy ; he appeared like one who had confidence in the justice or his cause , and of his own abilities to manage it . He answered the objections of his opponent point by point ; every answer he gave elicited thunders of well-merited applause . Never was there a more noble defence of the princip les advocated by the Chartists , than that made bv Mr . Hobson , in his reply to Mr .

      Robinson . Never before did the Leaguers of Holmfirth receive so severe a thrashing as they did at his hands . The writer of this article never listened to a more noble , a more powerful , and a more complete refutation of all the sophisms of Whiggism , and Cotn-Law humbug , than the reply of Mr . Hobson to Mr . Robinson ; and the confused and disconcerted state of mind exhibited by the latter when he rose a second time , was proof that he was writhing under the weight of the severe blows that be had received from it . Mr . Robinson , on his g eeond * ppearance , began by denying , point blank , thaHflph he had stated in his first address ; but he waRSet by the audience with one simultaneous burst of disapprobation . Such was the strong feeling manifested against him , that it is doubtful whe-

      Untitled Article

      ther he would have been heard at all , had it not been for the very proper interference of the chairman , who said" now , my friends , let us shew an example such as the League never shewed tons . It is true they will not shew us fair play at their meetings . Let us do good for evil—hear them patiently if we stay here while daylight in the morning . " Attention was then given to Mr . Robinson , and ^ tlwas well tha t it was so ; for he made a declaration that was highly honourable to the working classes . He declared that he had found by his own

      experience that the labouring classes were far more intellectual than the middle classes , and he should be happy to see a better understanding exist between them , for he himself was an advocate for universal suffrage . It being now after twelve o ' clock , he said he could not think it right to detain the meeting any longer , but would reserve what he had to say to some future time . A vote of thanks was then given to the lecturer , and to the chairman , and the meeting broke up in good order , highly delighted with the proceedings of the evening . —Wm . Cuttell , Sec .

      TO THB EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN STAR . Queen ' s Prison , Southwark , London . Wednesday Afternoon , May 10 , 1843 . MY dear Htll , —Brave old Daddy Richards and I are still here ; but have received no notice , as yet , whe t her we are to stay , or be removed to Stafford . The fact of tbe Judges having specifically appointed my friend George ' s imprisonment of eight months to be passed here gives us some hope that we may be permitted to remain . To one thing we have made up our minds—that tee will not submit , if aent to Stafford , to be treated as tve were be / ore . Although prisoners here , we are treated like men : and we will not be used like dogs if again sent to Stafford . If it be attempted , they shall have a struggle for it , if my life be tbe forfeit .

      Let me conjure all who think us worth thinking about , not to think it too much trouble to scrawl VB a letter . We shall surely find time to answer , at lawt before two years' holiday be over , unless the tyrant take steps to stop our scribbling . No more just ' now . The right hand of faith and fellowship to all true Chartists , though we can't get at ' em ! Tour ' s , my dear Hill , affectionately , Thomas Cooper . P . S . —I hope and trust most devoutly , that my poor Shakspereans , though they be now like " sheep without a shepherd , '' will not " cry their ejea out" I shall stand in old Leicester Market Place again , and sing ? ' Spread the Charter" till the trembling bellies of all the wolves in sheep ' s clothing echo the sound with fear . Look upward and onward , lads ! and don't be ' down in the mouth . " Above all , OJ rabbet ye . ' give over quarrelling ! Your faithful " general" in limbo , T . C .

      ^ TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN STAR . SIR , —My last letter gave an accouut of my lecture at Kelso and Jedburgh , ( not Edinburgh . ) I next came to Hawick , and although I did not find the Association in such a state of order and unity as it has been , yet the hearts of the people were in tbe right place , and what is more , the Chartists have two large stores , Where provisions and other necessaries are sold , with an extensive and thriving business . They began two or three years since , with only a few pounds , and sold meal and potatoes three days in the week- They now can boast of at least four hundred pounds werth and have two well-accustomed shops open six days in the week . We bad a very large meeting , all sizes and sorts , men , women , and children .

      I next lectured at Selkirk , where the Duke of Buodenoh , who possesses about five or six hundred thousand acres of God ' s earth , has fixed one of his seats . I addressed the people in the Market Place , about five yards from the monument of Sir Waiter Scott There is no Association at Selkirk , but the Repealers have been there , and as at Jedburgh , thrown dust in tbe eyes of the unsuspecting labourers . Thus you see Sir , if we neglect our cause , the conning tricksters don't neglect theirs . I attempted to show the people that it was of the first importance to gain political power , as they would then have the means in their hands to protect their labour , and make all reforms and changes in Government , benefit them as well as the capitalist .

      I next lectured at fcralaahiels , to a very great audience . There are a goed many inhabitants in Galashiels , but I am afraid not many eutright Chartists . I gave two lectures in Dalkeitb , and had a few shots with Mr . Acland . I could not draw him to close quarters . I have now lectured twice in Maaaelburg , Leitb , and Edinburgh , once in Laaswade , Preston Pans , and Portabello . The district is all sixes and Bevens , and I am only a poor man , and cannot do mere than my share , but I hope in the course of two months to see " Auld Reekie" hold up her head witti the proudest . There has beer * a public meeting called by ticket here , about Sir James Graham ' s bill , bat like the handle of a jug , it went all on # way , the worklea bad something else to do . Yours , T . Dickinson . P . S . —All communications with me most in future be addressed , 281 , Cannongate , Edinburgh .

      The Life of a London Dodger . Letter to the Archbishop of Canterbury The Poor Law Martyra ( A Tale ) Chap . I . Autobiography of a Chartist . Poems by a Sufferer under the Present System . News of the Month . Critical Notices . Orbituary , &c ., &c . Chartism having now gained a radical footing in the world , several tried friends of the Cause have been appointed a Committee to supply a desideratum which is beginning to be very sensibly felt . In this undertaking they have met with encouragement and support from Chartist advocates of all shades of opinion , and particularly from that portion of the public which represents the spirit and the iutelligence of the London Trades . They have encountered no opposition , and anticipate none .

      The aim of the Committee is to produce a work which oan be lent to neutrals , and even to the enemies of our principles , with the hope that it may awaken apathy and dispel prejudice , and thus dig . geminate Chartism in circles from which it has hitherto been excluded : for they feel convinced that Chartism can be made amusing and instructive * noble , amiable , dignified , and interesting—fit for the drawing-room of the Lord , as well as the cottager ' s fireside . It can speak with the tongue of the orator , take up the pen of the historian , teach with the philosopher and theologian , as well as declaim with the politician ; and can wield the magic wand of romance , sound the lyre of poetry , delineate with the pencil of the topographer—receiving U-

      spiration by turns from each Muse . Churchmen , dissenters , lawyers , doctors , naval and military men , Whig or Tory , all have their Magazines to store up news , to state their claims , to advance their prospects , and to impart information peculiar and interesting to all . Why should not working men have a Magazine to represent their interests , and to promote , their elevation is society 1 Such a Magazine would furnish them with ready arguments for use in co nversation and debate—with facts for thoughtful minds—with sound and searching truths—with useful , necessary , and profitable information—and would materiall y assist to gain the Cause of truth and justice . It should be made to penetrate into every town and village , aad reach the hands of every working man .
