" THE DEATH BLOW . . - ^— _ m — "• " : - At length the long expected motion of the Honourable Member for Oldham has been discussed in the House of Commons , and seventeen gentlemen only found to raise their voices in its favour ! The beantrfallv simple tale of woe narrated by the tender-hearted FiELDEN , rendered it difficult for the Diplomatic Secretary to replv . He said so ; but yet landed" the measure , upon the principle that manv of the abuses
complained of existed under the old system . What ! and is the long existence " of an abuse to be pleaded in extenuation of the grievance ? If so , up , Britons , and strike the monster in the head , ere custom sanctions the abomination . In the attempted justification of the Act , Lord Howick strenuously laboured to place it in fair
comparison with the 43 d of Elizabeth ; bnt either he was not aware of , or the House did not discover the fallacy . He dared not contrast the present Act " with the 43 d cf ELIZABETH , in Us primitire state ; but he argued from the abuses which STURGES Bourxe ' S Act had engrafted upon the law of Elizabeth . He quoted the , authority of hired mercenaries , in answer to the
exposition of Mr . Fieldex , and said that so iar from the law having operated against the people , it had increased their comfort . Let us for a moment review Mr . Fielden ' S disinterested testimony , in answer to the Noble Lord ' s assertion . "The Member for Oldham first fairl y proved that from the date of the introduction of the measure , the comforts , wages , and independence of
btrfr ^ Jf I * ffd HOWICK , ' how ' * has he ^ proved M 3 position . Lest the Honourable Member was inaudibleto unwelcome hearers , we shall briefly recapitulate his proofs—•* Crime has increased . In Bedford , Woburn , and Ampthill , under the- nose of the Russell family , head-money has been taken from the aged ; wages lessened ; comforts abridged ; and deaths , frightful to -contemplate , have taken place !—the furniture of the pauper going ; their clothes sold to buy bread ; the servant of the
establishment committing unnameable offences upon the male inmates ; while the whole edifice i 3 rendered noxious by the state to which the poor creatures' bowels are reduced by potations of -unwholesome garbage ¦ " ' Is this nothing ?—and while the paupers , — oh ! how we hate the word , —are in this -state of destitution , receiving at .-the rate of 2 s . l | d . per head , the rich attendants are paid at the rate of 3 s . 9 d . per head for their services !
The table whiehMi . FiELDEX adduced in favour of his argument to show that all i&ninution in the rates from 1818 to 1837 , Tras not attributable to the alteration in the law , but to a reduction of taxation , was unanswerable and unanswered . His table of the comparative expenee of the paupers and the
establishment , were also untouched ; while the Noble Lord , who attempted to defend the iniquity , was unguarded enough to deny that the machinery of the bEl of 1834 , as regarded destitute paupers , ^ as any deviation from the good and ancient practice ^ No , it may not be very striking in its different treatment of those who
eeased to be valuable in the eye of the capitalist , but he well- know 3 that the great grievance of which the enemies of the measure complain , is , that the blow was aimed at the able bodied , in order to make them work at the TrnTiirrmm prices , rather than &ce the horrors of aBastile . The present enactment says , the Noble Lord , is to enforce the good administration of the 43 rd Elizabeth . ; and he might have added , the Commissioners are to be sole dictators as to fe operation . But , said Lord Hotfick "" Rhat system would the Hon . Gentleman
introduce ? " ( hear , ) " what folly ; as well ^ ay the advocate enquire of Ms client , what peUments he should Tise in . addressing a I ? upon a point of law . For what do the People pay Lord HoviCK ? or , as the Irish g » " Why keep a dog and bark yourself ?" Jaat , says he again , are the specific comets against the Bill ? If Mr . Fielden , ** 3 not convinced him in vain would it be 101 us to undertake the task . In the Noble-Lord ' s allusion to Norting-« 8 flL JXj „ SnnmTp r \ f + Vlo rrrxnA w / - » fl > -i-r * , » ~ t T ^ h lor a sample of the good working of
« k system , he wholly fafled ; and changed f ground when the recollection of Parson "WB and the vivid blaze from his Heveffz * stacks flashed across his mini ih " * ' ^ y * ^ !*> " *» " no man ^ could otherwise get employment would , J ™ anly throw himself upon the work-^ se for reHefl" We perfectly agree with ^ Urdship ; and , if candour formed any . jW of his profession , he should have used [¦ -I ?; <** °% argument in favour of the r eared e feet prodoced t > y the Bill .

he gnbtes _ the Unsuspicious evidence of . Mr . Tuiscfo before the Committee in proof that persons -were not compelled to gain a qualification for admittance to the workhouse by the sale of their furniture . The Malthusian also : breaks out , when he takes praise to himself and his unholy coadjutors for allowing old married couples to live together , forbidding the comfort to the young married U « i .

paupers ; no doubt lest population should press too heavy upon the means of subsistence- Again he complains that under the old system paupers were knocked down to the highest bidder . But what is the present system but & sort of Dutch auction ; for whoever bids lowest for , preserving the miserable existence of the paupers within the Union , has the lot knocked down to
Again the Noble Lord claims praise for the act , because it is lauded by those who administer it , and by those wfto ' save-in the payment of rates ; and- to conclude the farce he ektn ^ creditor hk ^ party for' 3 be-gop £ working of the New Settlement Clauses , without having the candour to admit that those Clauses were forced upon the
Government by Mr . HARDY , an opponent to the measure . The points made by Mr . Wak-LEYj . the working man ' s friend , were shrewd and judicious . He very pointedly observed , that any benefit likely to be produced by the New System , might—if an amelioration of the working men had been the objecthave been effected by a correction of the abuses under the old law of Elizabeth .
This is the grand doubt which we have always had as to the intentions of the Malthusians . The Hon . Gentleman made one other home hit , in anticipation , no doubt , of the . good character which the administrators of the law would receive . The
MILDNESS , I SAID HE , OF THE COMMISSIONERS . WAS ALWAYS THE EFFECT OF THE DETERMINATION OF THE PEOPLE . Let that one sentence be imprinted as an apothegm upon the heart of every working man . This is a proof that the indolence of the people increases the vigour of their opponents , and allows bad custom , by recognition , to grow into bad law . Let us then take the hint and strike this monster / ere he grows too overpowering . We are not to slumber because the annual faree
is over : but placing no reliance upon a House which furnishes but 17 Members hostile to this bad - law , we must repeal the law out of the House , As we foreboded Mr . FlELDEN was ably supported by the petitions of the people , but they might as well throw " pearls before swine" as petition the present House of Commons . The most curious feature in this debate was the
unaccountable part acted by Mr . Harvey , who moved the previous question as an amendment to Mr . FiELDEN ' S motion . This course meant the getting rid of the debate altogether , and -was a course even to ^ tgrannieal for the Whig 3 to adopt ; -however as gran 3 r ~ srroEes ~ paralyze humble capacities , -we wait for the development of the Hon . Member ' s design , which no doubt we shall . have in the Weekly True Sun of Saturday .
'¦ We really thought that Mr . . Harvey ' s contempt of the Committee was so great , that he could not longer conscientiously form one of the body ; bnt that was last year . The other speeches were , as we expected , a steady adherence to the Bill , the whole Bill , and nothing but the Bill . We have endeavoured , by great pains , to select from the different speakers such points as would be most necessary to lay before
the public upon this important debate . We have taken this course in preference to the introduction of the subject by any commentary upon the general principle of the measure , which appears to us to have been conceived in Hell , ' and brought forth by the Devil , for the purpose of frustrating God ' s good intentions to his creatures ^ upon earth . We cannot here notice the speech of Lord John Russell , and especially those , parts reflecting personally upon Mr . O'Connor .

MEETINGS OF THE WEEK . Much as we are pressed for room , we cannot avoid expressing the delight which the meetings of the working men of Preston and Bolton afforded us . There was a real union of all that is valuable in the honest mater ials by which the good cause is to be fought . At Preston , where tbe exertions of the glorious HUNT are still manifest , we were prepared to see union , determination , and
courage ; but at Bolton , so long the unshaken seat of Whiggery , we confess we anticipated some little . opposition , but even there the natural feelings of freedom have not been subdued , notwithstanding the many attempts of both factions to subjugate human understanding to party ascendancy . The difficulty , indeed the impossibility , of procuring " a chairman to preside over the Bolton
meetmg , was no proof of want of inclination , but clearly evinced the awful state of dependency to which the working classes are subjected . Nothing but Universal Suffrage , that inheritance of man for self-protection , can conquer this hellish system of controul , which subjects the be 3 t portion of the community to the dictation of the independent masters , made independent of their slaves by the misapplication of machinery , and the want of that vote , by which alone the proceeds from the science can be equitably
adjusted . We never witnessed more excellent demeanour and gentlemanly conduct than was exhibited at the dinner , by the virtuous working men of Preston . Would to God that the aristocracy had one half the respect for order , decorum , and good 'p rinciple , which the working classes evince , arid then they would see that the best security of the higher classes was in cultivating a more close acquaintance with their poor neighbours . We have promised to upset the lopsided , piebald , Reform Association of Preston , which with God ' s "blesssing we will perform , and that before long .
