THE YOTJA'G HAWS CATECHISM . We hare bad by us for some time a pamphlet , entitled ** The First Step in the Ladder to Political Knowledge ; or , The Yow g Man ' s Catechish , " by R « ben UnrrelL , of Grecnoek , to which we should have directed earlier attention , had it not been for the Conference claim upon our columns . HowereXj It is » work written in so i-imple and convincing a style , that it is but * to overcome all obstacles , —even a late notice . The author , from being a working nan , and a thonxhtfnl man , brings experience and reflection in aid of his subject , and has bandied it in a style at once simple and captivating . The principal object of the author J 3 to prove that the many
hardships endured by the working classes , though not of their own 4 » eation , may be destroyed by a proper combination of their own powers . He dwells at considerable length upon the necessity of establishing a Nation *! Bank , the deposits in which he desires to see applied to the purchase of land , machinery , minerals , &c , and such raw materials as would constitute a field for the expenditure of free labour ; As we may hereafter , when time permits , tefer moreat large to ihi 3 little work , we shall content ourselves for the present with the following extract , showing how the author opens his subject , asd proceeds to impress it upon the minds of yonng
sienc—Q . What is mas ? A . Man is a sentient being , capable of thought , reason , aadactien . Q What is sentient ? A- Perception , having power to discover , to know , to observe . Q . What is thought ? A . Imagination , inflection , idea . Q- Whatisreason ? A . That power by which man deduces consequences baa premises , motives , principles , or the effects from Buses . Q .

No ; aome men are endowed -with powers better adapted for the performance of certain duties than others , and are very deficient in powers necessary for the performance of other duties .
< J- Do the drenmstanee * which ssrronnd men , or the position in which they are placed , in any degree tend to ere&te such distinctions as at present exist in society ? A . Yes , but a proper edneation would tend to lessen these disE&ciions , as many of the lower ranks of Kitty have a * great natural qualifications as any moving in the higher . Q . I > 0 £ 3 the possession of superior mental ox physical po-sren confer superior rights ? A . >* a < i . What reason « m be assigned -why superior powers no not confer snpsrior rights ? A . Because all men come into existence in the some EiEcer , are composed of the same Eubstances , possessed -of the Birae organs , require the same materials to preserre life , and consequently ought to have the s&tdb rights . Or What rishts appertain to man ?
A Ths rights of m&n are manifold , but may be comprehended in the four following— -viz ., his right to life , Mi right to self-government , his jight to acquire and to hold property , and Mb right to the free extrcise of his mental and physical powers , so that the rights of others are rot infringed thereby .

Q Can public property become private property ?
A . All property may become private property with Jbs acrptlov of the land . Q , What is joint stock property ? A . That -wbith a nuiaber of perwns may put , or acqaire , togeticr , agreeably to contract entered into by tbe p j-ties ; the possessors are called a joint-stock toapsny . Q- What is private property ? Av It is the exclusive possession of such materials as are requisite for the preservation of life—via ., food , * fciinng , bouses , furniture , luznries , and the means of Procuring or acquiring them . Q . Ton say land cannot become private property ? A The land is public property , and cannot beeoai 6 the exclusive property of any distinct party or 3 ia . Q What is the reason why the land cannot be-^ ° * the exclusive property of any distinct party or
A , Because it is Qse fonudaBon of all labour , and B » raw material from which all wealth is prodnced j * M all men having th £ same right to life , and the *»« right to preserve it , it must therefore be evident , « at the fxtlnsive possession of it by any distinct party ' S ^ ** - nld prevent others from exercising the same rP& . ar-a privileres as those who would be in the Ptae *« on rfit ' . . . .

Q If one man has this exclnsive right to the prodnce of a certain piece of land , how can ethers enjoy the same . privilege ? A . As fee has only the right to as much as be is able to labour , and seeing that all are not inclined to be coltivators of the land , the time will never arrive when those inclined to do ao will wai : t a field fox their exertion .

GAH 3 JSLE . —EXTRAOBBINABT JkQUFST AND Iw-VEsnGAiioa . —On Monday and Thursday week , an inquest was held at the house of Elizabeth Barnes , JLowiher Arms , Beaumont , near Carlisle , before William Carrick , Esq ., solicicor , of Brampton , county coroner , upon the body of James Clarke , * who died the Friday previously . Considerable excitement prevailed in the township on the occasion , as the deceased had been ill for a long period , during which his case had been treated by v * rions medical men , and the feelicgB of the neighbourhood were strongly expressed as to the absurdity of hotting a coroners inquest on the occasion . It was necessary that the grave of the deceased should be opened , in-order that the body might be viewed by the coroner and
the jury . Tfee friendB and relatives of the deceased evinceo . the utmost reluctance to this procedure , and were with difficulty reconciled to the necessity . Even then , no one could be found for some time willing to open the grave ; but it wa 3 at last done , greatly to the indignation <> f at least tt e female part of the inhabitants . The Jid 0 / the ceffin was 1 hen raised , and the jnry sworn by the grave . There was no post mortem examination . It appeared from the evidence ^ which was very lengthy , that the deceased James Clarke , had been , about six months ago , an inmaie of the Cumberland Infirmary ; where he had
been treated by Dr . Barnes , physician to the establishment for the disease called morbus coxarius , or disease of the hip joint . The treatment , according to Dr . Barnes ' s evidence , was as follows : The first prescription applied i 3 a blister . At the same time , there is a mixture of spirits of turpentine , 8 dz , I did not see him again until the 2 nd of November .. That was all that took place ai the first interview . He was then an out patient . When he came on the 2 nd of November the prescription stands thus . ' Let him be enpped on the left thigh to 10 ox ^ repeat the mixture . " It is not mentioned when I ordered the blister to be
applied on the first occasion . The next time he came was on the 16 th of November . I saw him then , aad the mixture was again repeated . On the 23 rd a blister is directed to be applied to the painfal part of the thigh . I am rtadias ? these directions from the book . On the 7 ih of September he was ordered to be bled 12 tz . from the arm ; 10 grains of Dover ' s powder to be taken at night—that is a sweating powder—and next morning a doBe of elecinary and some salts . He was labouring under chronic rheumatism when I first saw him . I am
now going to speak of him as an in-patient . I received him on the 14 th of December , 1842 . He was afflicted in much the same way as he was at first ; but he was not in so much pain as when I first saw him . The next entry was in the Physician ' s Register . Tee ticket was kept at the head of the bed , on which-1 entered nay prescriptions , but it cannot be found . It is not nsoal to keep them . I prodnce the Physician ' s Register kept by Mr , Bnrch , copied from my tieket . It is an abstract of my ticket , and * not a copy . " 1842 , No . 8 , James Clarke , aged 50 , married ; residence , Beaumont ; ocenpation , labourer ; date of admission ; discharged Dec . 14 , 1842 ; disease , rhenmatism , &c . ; relieved . The treatment , twice cupping : subscriber's name , Mr . Thunnan . "
That is all the entry I can find on the books . I can give no evidence touching the death of James Clarke , as he left the Infirmary alive , and I have not seen Mm for above half a year . When he left the InSrm&ry , my impression was that he might lite some years . He had no complaint on him then likely to prove mortal . I remember the circumstances of his leaving ; he was then in less pain than when he entered the house , and less lame , thongh he was lame . His general health was improved . I considered his lameness incurable , and did not therefore wish to keep him in the house . I saw him frequently while an in-patient , and he was under my charge , Jane Clarke , examined—I am the widow of the deceased . I remember him going to the
Infirmary ,, as an out-patient , about harvest-time last year , either in September or October . At that time he ihocght he had rheumatism . He was affected at the time in his knee and thigh , and all on his left side . He was lame from it , and went on two sticks . This was while he nsed to go in a cart to the Infirmary . He fu afterwards in the Infirmary . When he came out he did noi find himself any better . He said-he told D > . Barnes he would go home , as he did not feel any better , and be gave him leave , and said he might do as he liked . His leg and thigh were no better . The © fncere of the Infirmary did not attend him afterwards ; after be left the Infirmary , several medical men attended him . They were ¦ Jdr . Hodgson , Dr . Jackson , and Mr . Elliott .
They came several times . They « ame backwards and forwards up to the time of hi 3 xieath . He was confined to bis bed for seventeen weeks , ever since he was lifted on a table . Doctors Jackson and Elliot lanced his thigh on their first visit , a Thnrsday nig 1 think , and he went to bed on the Saturday night , and never got out of it again , except when he was lifted . He took physic on Friday . There was matter and blood gathered about the joint when these Doctors firet saw him . They gave him no medicine . They ordered none that I recollect . They put an issne ( seai on ) in , and directed my husband to lay in bed , and keep quiet . A piece of wood , or splint , was put on his thigh , bat he eonld not l > ear it , and they took it off again . Bis diet was ordered to be light podding , and so forth , but nothiag heating . Several medical
gentlemen were then examined , as to the namre of the disease , and the mode of treatment to be followed in such cases . They all agreed that the deceased had been treated in a very improper manner by Dr . "Barnes ; and quoted several medical authorities to bear out their testimony . It may be proper to state , that the parties anxious to make out a case of mal-treatment against Dr . Barnes , consist of medical men , who have felt mneh dissatisfied ever since the appointment of Dr . Barnes , as physician , and Mr . Page as snrgeon to the Infirmary ; and we fear their present conduct has originated in a factions spirit towards those gentlemen , and not from honest and humane motives . The Coroner , ihen ,- snmmed up the evidence , and the Jury returned the following verdici : — " That the deceased , James Clarke , came te his death bg the visitation of Godjjrvm natural causes . "

But , inasmuch as we may deprive the winter of many of its inclemencies by properly preparing to meet it , so we may contribute many pleasures of old age , and retain many who would otherwise decay , by a proper aud timely attention— as in the case of Old Parr—to the health of the bodily faculties .
1 ? . ^ i N Organ Boys . —Suspicious Death . —On Friday last , a poor Italian boy , in the employ of Guisepppe Brugadelli , ( of No . 3 , Saffron-court , Saff ron-hill , to go about begging with an organ , left home , after complaining of a pain in the side . On the same afternoon , about four o ' clock he was found by a gentleman sitting on hia organ , evidently in a dying state , ia a ; street at Islington , when he waa tafcen to Islington workhouse , and there expired . The master , on receiving information of the boy ' s death , made preparations to bury him in two days afterwards , and various reports haying been circulated , one was that the boy had been starved and treated ; with cruelty , and another that he had been ill-treated by some low follows at a public house
who had before blackened his face , forced drink upon him , and turned him into the street , Mr . Lucioni , an Italian bp ^ ot and shoemaker , of Ray-street , Clerkenwell , interested himself and made inquiries , the result of which was not at all satisfactory , and be applied to Mr . Wakley , the Coroner , for the purpose of causing an inquest to be held upon the body prior to the interment taking place . It appears from Lucioni ' s statement , that the most inhuman traffic is carried on in the metropolis by a set of Italian fellows who bring boys from Italy for the purpose of begging and going about with organs , and other instrumentB , & ? ., and who treatthem in a most cruel manner . They ( the masters ) compel their boys to bring them home 3 s per day , and in one instance an Italian
residing on Saffron-hill has no less than twenty-seven boys who are sent out with organs , imitation pianos , &c , and are to be seen in every part of the town daily . This fellow , through the vagrancy of the boys , receives from them £ 24 f * per week . He paya 3 a per week for a room in the neighbourhood of Saffronhill , where they aro huddled together like a pack of swine , and it costs him 6 s or Cs per week for their support , chiefly consisting of soup made of any offal , so that after all expenses he clears £ 22 Is per week ; and unless the boys bring home the required 3 i per day they are most severely chastised . Another Italian , a relation to the above , was heard to declare last week , that he had made his fortune in consequenco of this sort of traffic , and that withiu three
months he had realised £ 1 * 20 out of the sixteen Italian boys , whom he had brought from Parma and Genoa ; and he left England the other day with hia coffers well lined , leaving the whole of his unfortunate victims behind to starve far distant from their own country . Shocking instances of cruelty could be enumerated that are daily practised by the ruffians , who inveigle the boys from their native land by false promises thai they will be brought up to a trade , and , after a period of time , mentioned to their parents , they will be sent back again ; but the moment they arrive on the English shore the unfortunate boys are sent to play upon organs , &c . The Magistrates of the metropolis have used every effort
to get at the masters , but hitherto they have failed . Toe boys , in consequence of the extreme cruelty they receive , aud the threats held out to them , are afraid to expose them , and in no instance have they over given the names ofthoir masters when brought before the bench . We understand that the subject has excited the attention of some humane gentlemen , who have formed themselves into a committee for the purpose of devising some plan for the protection of such boys , and to do away with the disgraceful nuisance ; and should an investigation be made into the cause of the death of the above boy , there is no doubt it will be searching , as the circumstance has caused a deep interest to be manifested .
Providential Escape . —The inhabitants of Northstreet , Lambeth , and the immediate neighbourhood , were much alarmed on Sunday evening about halfpast six o ' clock by a loud noise , which Was ultimately fonnd to proceed from a small house , the residence of a poor man , situate No . 4 , James Place , Northstreet , the ceiling' of which , with part of the roof , had fallen into ( he bed-room . In bed was the youngest child , which was miraculously B&ved . Had it been two hours later , other branches of the family would have been in bod , and nothing could have saved them from instant death . As it is , the damage of the house , and the entire destruction of the poor man ' s stock-in-trade , is the extent of the loss , his family , eight ia number , having been kindly assisted by his equally poor neighbours .

London Smitbfield Cattle Market , Mondat Sept . 4 —There was a great -change in the general state of trade to-day , for which it ib difficult to assign a feasible reason . Except for Beef the butchers purchased very sparingly of all kinds of meat , the which even a reduction of , in some cases , 4 d per stone failed to counteract . As the former description met with a ready sale , the heat of the weather there is every reason to suppose had nothing to do with this depression , neither can the supply be brought forward as the chief cause . Wh £ n the fact of London being clear of meat is borne in ; mind , this reaction is the more singular . There were several lots of Foreign Beasts at market on 'jFriday from Holland on sale by Mr . Collins , which were , taken as a whole ,
superior to former arrivals with one or two exceptions , and further arrivals are expected on Friday n , ext to the same consignment . | The supply of Homebred Beasts this morning , amounting to about 3 , 000 head , was equal in quality to thosj of last Monday , or those Of the preceding Monday ' s market , and all sold by an early hour at rates 'fully as high as those of this day Be ' nnight . Small Scots and other prime Beasts may be quoted as selling at 4 s to 4 s 21 per stone , middling quality Si lOci , and excellent serviceable Beef at 3 s 8 d . As usual the return of She Jp last night was some thousands above the actual supply of this morning , but the latter number , although about similar on an average to the supplies for the last mouth or six week 3 , may , the state of trade
considered , be reckoned as constituting a very large supply . Taking tho general run , the quality was equal to last week . From the Opening of the market until the close the Mutton trade was dull—exceedingly so—aud many head were turned out unsold at three o ' clock . Downs of the best quality made but 4 s per stoae on an averago , although some few very choice nine-stone Sheep were saleable at 4 s 2 d . Middling quality may be quoted from 3 < 8 d to 33 lOd , inferior 3 s Si , and coarse kinds ifrom 33 . The Lamb trade was equally as dull , but j the improvement in price of Friday last was nevertheless maintained today , the fine choice Downs making 53 per stone , and inferior quality from 4 a . Voal and Pork were both a heavy sale , likewise at about 2 d per stone decline . London Corn Exchange , Mondat , Sept . 4 . — The supplies during last week were tolerably good of English Wheat and Flour , the former being 5 . 219 qrs , aud the latter 4 , 046 sacks : Of Irish Oats the
supply was nearly 13 , 000 qrs . Of Foreign Grain we have to notice a large arrival—Wheat amounting to 60 , 132 qrs ; Barley , 7 , 326 ; and ! Oats 2 , 370 . To this morning ' s market tho supply or New English wrieai was tolerably largo from . Essex ( and Kent , but short from other parts , uor have we much newgrainofany other description . Tho duty ion Foreign Wneat having receded last Thursday to 14 s per qr , some considerable quantity since then has paid duty , and been entered for home consumption ] The Wheat trade has been dull this morning , at a decline of 2 s to 3 s from this day week . Barley is without alteration . Irish Oats Is to 2-t dearer for light inferior samples . Beans , Peas , and other Grain unaltered . Flour nominally the same . New winter Tares are in good demand . The supply of New i White and Brown Mustard Seed has been most abundant , and prices have declined Is per bushel , j Carraway Seed is scarce , and 2 s per cwt . higher , i
Hops . —The exceedingly hot weather that has been for several dava past has bad the effect of advancing the duty to £ 150 , 000 , consequently the market is heavy , with a redaction of 4 s toj 6 s from last week's prices . A single pocket of new ] is all that is as yet arrived , and irhioh fetched £ 8 . ; Colonial . —Sugar . —The market for British Plantation has been very firm , a good business having been done at fully previous prices , and in some instances a shade dearer . About 800 hhds have been sold . The pubic sal « s hate consisted of 2 , 265 bags of Bengal , 65 chests , 83 brls . Peruambuco , and 218 boxes Havaunah . The Bengal Bold briskly , and ohiefiy at higher prices , but being all in small lots , and mostly damped and washed ,: it affords vary little criterion of the market generally . All the Pernambuco was taken in above the value , viz ., at 22 s 6 d to 24 s for very low soft to mid whit © j the Havannah sold at 17 s to 20 s for low soft to fine yellow , being
the extreme value . Although there appears to be no general demand for foreign , yet , notwithstanding , rather a large business continues to bo done weekly , chiefly in cargoes afloat for export , and for which former prices are obtained . Three cargoes have been sold , one from the Havannah , with about 900 boxes brown at 19 d 3 d , deliverable at Antwerp ; one of Bahia , with about 403 chests brown at 17 s , deliverable at a near port on the Continent , and the other from Porto Rico with 650 hhds , rather above 18 s , deliverable over the ship ' s side in London , for reshipment to the Continent ; and on the spot about 1 , 200 hhds Cuba Muscovado and Porto Rico at 17 s 6 d , likewise supposed to be for exportation . The quantity of British Plantation landed last week at the East and West India Docks Jwas 1 , 038 hhds 110 tierces , 62 brls . The quantity consumed this year is 53 , 497 hhds , 6 , 406 tierces , against 47 , 190 hhds , 5 , 454 tierces at this time last year . The stoofc is 21 , 269 hhds , 3 , 096 tierces , being greater ! than last year .
Coffee , —38 casks Jamaica , 58 , 1 bags Ceylon , and 500 Mocha , have been offered by auction . The Jamaica and Ceylon found buyers , the former chiefly at 97 s to 97 s 6 d for mid quality , and the latter at 45 s to 57 s 6 d for low good ord mixed ! to fine ord coloury which are about previous prices . Nearly all the Mocha was taken at 653 6 'd to 734 6 d for mid to good clean garbled , and a few lots inferior at 60 s to 62 s , being chiefly held above the value ! , but for the small portion which sold , the advance already noticed was fully established . The qoan » ityjof British Plantation landed this year is 3 , 670 hhdg , 1 , 805 brls . and bagB , being much the same as last year .

Manch ^ teb Cob . v Market , / Satc-boay , SfiPr . 2 —A steady demand from the trade has enabled factors to tff-ct sales of all gfood and superfine parcels of fresh English or Irish Fiour on arrival ; and , as the stocks in consumers'hands are very considerably reduced , an improvement in value has been realized . For inferior qualities of Flour there was no inquiry ; and prices were barely supported . Oatmeal was likewise in but limited request . With the ^ exception , of Oatmeal and Fiour from Ireland , of whioh the supplies , considering the period of the year , aro large , the imports of all articles thence and coastwise , are bnt to a moderate extent . The arrivals of Fiour from the interior continue small , and of suitable descriptions barely equal to the demand . The
duty on Wheat having declined to 14 s . per quarter , and no present prospect of any further reduction appearing ,, it is probable the whole of the stocks of that article and of Flour now in bond , as well as tho current arrivals , will be entored for home consumption . At-our market this morning there was but little passing in Wheat , and we repeat , nominally , the quotation ? of this day Be ' nnight . Prime Qualities of sack Flour were free Bale , and 44 a . per 28 ft lbs . was obtained for choice whites ; inferior descriptions were in rather better request , but no advance in prices can be noted . A few parcels of new Oatmeal were disposed of at 25 s . per load , but in the value of old there is no change . Oats were neglected * and to effect sales lower rates must have been submitted to .
Liverpool Cokn Market , Monday , Sept . 4 . — With the exception of 6636 loads of Oatmeal from Ireland , we have had light arrivals of Grain , &c . » since this day se ' nnight . The duty on Wheat is novr 143 . per quarter , and on Flour 8 s . 5 d . per barrel . At Tuesday ' s market there was a more active demand for Wheat than had been experienced for some weeks before , and the depression noted in prices oa the previous Friday 'was fully recovered . Some purchases were made on speculation . The weather has since been exceedingly fine , with the usual effect of
deterring buyers ; holders , however , have shown no willingness to concede mueh , if any , in price . Flour has met a moderate demand , without change in value . The Oat trade hag continued to rule very dull . Oatmeal , too , has gone off slowly , and both articles have been easier purchased . A little Irish new white Wheat , of good quality , has sold at 83 . per 70 lbs ., a few Oats at 23 . 6 d . to 2 s . 8 d . per 45 lb § and a lot or two of new Meal at 23 s . to 24 s . per load . Barley , Beans and Pease , all the tarn cheaper , and little done in them .
