      CABPEN 2 EES' Hall , Manchestbb . —On Sunday evening last , we were favoured with a visit from Mr . J . B . Bairstow , who delivered a leeture in < tbe . above Han , to a densely crowded audience . The lecture embraced a variety of subjects of the most paramount lm » port&nce to tbe cause of democracy ; and the mauner'in which they were treated gave great satisfaction- Any attempt to give n mere ontline of the lecture , would only depreciate it as a whole . The address occupied upwards of two hours in delivery ; and At its * close nineteen persons joined the Association . TO THE CHABTISXS OP NOTTINGHAM AND SOUTH

      . DERBYSHIRE . Brother Democrats , —In accordance with one of tbe rules in your local plan of Organization , I now proceed to give you a report , though a brief one , of my -labours daring the last week . On Sunday , the 26 th instant , 1 lectured in tbe Market Place , Nottingham , or rather preached a political sermon to a numerous and highly respectable audience , wbo paid great attention to the discourse . Mr . Dorsnan , a worthy and honest Chartist , acted is tbe capacity of Chairman .

      On Monday afternoon , ths . Chartists of Nottingham and -surrounding villages , celebrated the first anniversary of the Battle of Mappexley GDIs , where five hundred peaceable and defenceless men , the year before , were pounced upon by a ruffianly band of red and blue-coated mercenaries ; some of whom were imprisoned for six , and some for four , and some for two months . Mr . Barber was unanimously elected to the chair , and opened the business in a short but appropriate speech ; after which tbe meeting was addressed by Messrs . Doraan , Mormon , Lilly , and ayself . There was a band present , who played several patriotic airs ; and afterwards headed the procession to the Democratic Chapel , where i delivered a lecture to a crowded audience , on " Tbe Repeal of the Union . "

      On Tnesday evening ; I addressed a large meeting in Arnold , on " The alarming state of the country . " I am happy to s ® te Coat there are a fine set of fello wj Id the above town ; but they are very poor ,, not averagings when they have foil work , above 6 s . a week . On Wednesday night I lectured in Lambley , and had an excellent muster . There are some choice spirits at Lamfeley . They are ' Chartists to the back bone ; bat like their brethren at Arnold , extremely poor and badly paid for their labour . On Thursday night , I lectured in HncknaL The meeting was rather thin at the beginning , but before I had done there was a considerable increase in our numbers , and the most strict attention paid . There ate a few sterling patriots in the above village , who have struggled bard to keep the associations sp , and I am sorry to say the poor fsllows have had many difficoltres to contend with owing to the strike .

      On Sunday evening last I delivered a disconrse in the market-place , upon the present position of parties iu the United Kingdom . The meeting was a very numerous one , and it contained a good sprinkling of the middle classes which proves that they too begin to feel tbe shoe pinch . —so much so that they cry out woefully . ^ Brother Chartisis . I implore you to rouse yourselves throughout tbe different localities . Bally round the standard cf democracy , and prove to your enemies by your steady adherence to principle , and your firm and united exertions , that you are determined to be politically fres . I remain yours in the sacred cause of freedom . Chxistotheb Dotlb .

      ZtOTJGHBOROTJGH—On Wednesday evening , Aug . 22 ntl , the Bev . Wm » Linweod , of Mansfield , who had been invited by tbe Chartists of this place , delivered a very able lecture in favour of Chartism . The B « v . Gentleman declared himself a Chartist , stating that it was from the New Testament that he had learned to be so . He proclaimed those who did not do their utmost to cause those principles to be adopted as traitors to patriotism and hypocrites in religion . His lecture was an able exposition of the principles of tbe

      Charter , their justice , and an appeal to the middle class to co-operate with the working class to secure them as the law of the land . The lecturer was loudly cheered by the " workies , " and what few of the middle class who were present ; few attending , though the theatre had been obtained for tbe occasion . At the close , a unanimous vote of thanks was given to the lecturer , and te Mr . J . Skivington , who occupied the chair , and the meeting broke up highly gratified . Many have since expressed a wish that the Bcv . Gentleman would pay them another visit .

      , 5 tTDSERSFX £ XiX > . —The meetings of the Association still continue to be bolden in tbe Chartist Boom , Upperhead-row , on Tuesday evenings . Last Tuesday evening- an entry of several new members "was made , and steps taken , by which it is hoped the slumbering energies of Chartism in this neighbourhood will once more be roused . Time was when this locality was considered one of tbe Etrong-holds of-Chartists , and there are those who do sot despair of again seeing it take a proninent position in the onward movement . DiWsBUBT . —The Chartiste orDewBbnry mei in their room orei the Co-operative Stores , on Sanday evening at six ©' clock ; the night ! of meeting being altered from Tuesday to Sanday . Mr . Gecree

      Sjkes -was called to the chair . On the motion of Mr . Robshaw , the new plan of Organization was read ; but owing to the pressure of other business , tbe discussion on it wa 3 adjourned to next Sanday evening . A subscription vras set on foot towards defraying the expenses of the county delegates to the National Conference . Chartism is again making rapid strides in Dewsbnry . Thirteen new members enrolled themselves in the Association . Others enquired when the subscriptions for the land would be commenced . Chartisis , attend at tbe Association room on Sunday evenings , at 8 ix o ' clock . The 'Northern Slar , and other papers are read , and matters discussed . Enrol yourselves , and look after -your own bnsness—see after the Land ! 1

      Gbeat Public JIsetikg at Dewsbxtrt . —On Monday evening a meeting was holden at Dewabury , to elect delgatesto the forthcoming Conference . At seven o ' clock Mr . George Sjkes was called to the chair , who briefly opened the business by reading the requisition cailiug the meeting , and introduced Mr . Percival , of Bradford , to move the first resolution , as follows : — " That it ia the opinion of this meeting that two delegates shonid be elected to represent Dewgbury , Bradford , Barasley , Keighley , Hndders-^ eld , Todmorden , H < bden-bridge , Birstal , Deighton , Bingley , Idle , deckheatoo , and Heckmondwike , in a Conference about to be held In Birmingham on the 5 th September and following days , for the purpose of devising & legal plan of Organization , to

      secure the adoption of the document called * The Peopled Charter' as the law of the land . " Mr . J . Watson seconded the resolution . Tbe Chairman called on Mr . James Dewhurst to support it , who was received with applause . Mr . JDawhirst entered into the . present condition of the county , and very abiy traced the evils of heavy and expensive government to class legislation ; and , in a style of argument greatly applauded , showed the urgent necessity of some legal plan of Organization . He forcibly dwelt on the cause of last year ' s flot , and the miser ; and afflstion that followed ; and ably refuted the charge of-Chartists wishing to destroy property , citing the fact of tha people being in thousands in Dewsbury , on the 17 th of August last year , asd no civil or military force to overawe them :

      yet not a single particle of property was destroyed , although some ot them , te knew lor a fact , was suffering the pangs of hunger at the time . He concluded by calling on the people to unite and join the Chartist ranks . He was happy to announce that Charfcm was rapidly on the increase in Dewsbury . Mr . Dewhirst retired amid the most rapturous applause of the meeting consisting of 1000 persons . The next resolution was as follows : — " That Mr . J . W . Smyth and 2 Ax . J . H . Dewhiret are fit and proper porsonB to represent the towns named in tbe first resolution at the forthcoming Conference about to be holden in Birmingham , on the 5 th of Sept . " Mr . Watson seconded the resolution . The Chairman called on Mr . Smyth , to support the resolution .

      Mr . Smyth then entered into the plans of Organization , and contended for tbe adoption of the Land Question as an auxiliary to the attainment of the Charter . He reviewed the difference between the Jabonrer of Switzerland and England ; contrasted the ^ amount of taxes paid by other countries ia Europe with that of England , and shewed the superior mode of government in the latter connfry . He called on the people to remember the" Tariff" was tobe a sovereign remedy for all evils , and askod if they had received the promised good . ( Cries of " We are worse off new . ") Mr . 5 myth observed , "If you had more ' Free Trade' your condition would be worse , unless yoo enjoyed the Suffrage , and aU the other points of the

      Charter . " He then called on the people to unite in the -agitation for the Charter and the Land . He trusted that ere long they would meet for the full exercise of the franchise in electing representatives to make laws for them , free and unshackled by any of the pernicious modes at present practised . The chairman then put tbe resolution , when a forest of hands were held no , and not one to the contrary . A vote of thankB waa givtn to the chairman , and lie meeting separated highly satisfied at the prospect of another agitation about to commence . After ; tbe meeting , the people were congregated in groups discussing the propositions laid down by the speakers ; and the prevailing opinion seemed to be in i&vour of the Land being added to the Organization .
