ADDRESS TO THE OPERATIVE TRADES ' UNION OF DUBLIN FROM THE OPERAT 1 VETRADES ' BNION OF MANCHESTER . — - " Let the g * nedj » ae wince , . Oni wither * axe mwnatg . " —SkaXtpeart . In addressing this second letter to you , let it "be iistinstly tmderstood that we address the honest independent operatives of Dublin , not the O'Connell tradesmen or Political Trades' Union now existing in yonr city for the purpose of assisting the lawyers of the Com Exchange to spend the justice rent , and keep the people in & state of poverty ; misery ^ and crime * in order . that they may agitate ! agitate !
agitate i and collect more mtrate , more rent , ana more subsidies , to cany on their nefarious war against principle . . . - We are accused W the called satellites of O'Conto
neu witn narmg ^ uempted iniuse "norntueiaeas iato the minds of the working men of Dublin , and with having instigated them by our " assassin address" to get rid of O'CormeD . Oh , tale -of horror ' conjured up Tby the weak minds of visionary enthuriasts , in whose imagination nothing but murders and terrific death's head * and cross bones float , to mislead them from moral rectitude , and teach them how to prostrate the noble genius of man at the altar of oppression and misrule . If the mighty master minds of the XationalTrades' Union had not been thinking of assassinations , they never could have put such a construction Tjpon the word rid as to convey to thtdr infatuated hearers the idea that we had recommended the assassination of O'Connell ; if the ^ rash and impetuous devotees had not to hastily jumped to a conclusion , but " had deliberately paused ere they called Englishmen assassins , « nd English language horrifrine : if they
had but studied Johnson before they presumed to become OTators and judges , they would have found that to rirfis " to clear , to disencumber , to remove , to redeem ; " so savs Walker , Shakspeare , Addison , and so says the Bible—but your calumniators read not that sacred volumes wherein is written , "The Lord shall enter into judgment with the ancients oflns people and the princes thereof ; for ye have eaten np the vineyard ; the spoil of the poor is in yonr houses . What mean ye that ye beat my people to pieces , and grind thefaces of my poor ; " and yet they dare to give a * solemn opinion" as to our guilty intent or recommendation to the men of Dublin to ** ret rid of O'Connell ; " we still " say get rid of that vile renegade that arch traitor , who feeds upon the "ritals of his starting and enslaved countrvmen , aiid who , pelican-like , feeds his agitating brood from the terror-wron ™ resources of his deceived subjects . Scorn him . hoot him . hunt
him" Lash / tin ? raecal naked through the ¦ worlc . " - He hxs deceived ns , and he glories in insulting yon . Not content with satisfying his sordid avarice and idle ambition in wallowing in ill-forgotten lucre , and waving with Ms genius the mind * of the people —not < ront *? nt with adding insult to the misery Inhas prodntvd , and which . fit studiously endeavour .-u > pt-rpetuate among U * countrymen forth * sake of his rein—not content with having ridden upon your * W .: ldt-r * into Parliament as the representative of Dublin , . ind used you n * the means to " rai < e him intopti . vtT , " but now ' he , like .

To ihe 7 / o . ii'irable the COMMONS of Lh ? United Kingdom t ' f Great Britain and Ireland . Li Parliament assaulted . Tbe Petition of the undersigned Iubnbitanfs of the Town of Colxe and its Vicinity , in the County of Lancaster , " " Slieweth , —Thnt your petitionprs understarid it to ' * aa e « entinl doctrine of the British Constitution , luat taxation , witliout representation , is tvnumy ; tafi as a ^ rer . t pan of your p ^ tirioneriC as well as a n-eatyp . n of the r . ntion , are deprived of the elective -rancui- *? . yo-nr pi-nii ; -nt-rs conceive that it follows as u _ cen : rin and int-vitiibTe consequence , that they and ^ 3 wLo Lavv no vote for M embers of Parliament , ere i- ! -i only de ^ rivcj of tbe benefits of tbe Constitution . Vut are ill a state of s 1 it » vty .
Tbv . t the judgment aui feelinj * of yonr petitioner ? , as iron r . nd as Britons , revolt at tbe idea of inyastictN « ppre * sion . tyranny , and slavery , and tbe awful con-¦ -e « j ^ t-zjrof . wnicli tbev suffer from tbe present partial , m-fiv . r . -DiijnsT , and lurdted state of tbe representation . : 'Iliat it is not the intention of your petitioners , on tbis occasion , to enter into a nifl detail of their ifrievances , but rather to lay before your Honourable llwa- » j a brief summary of those which tliey conceive to hv tbe most oppressive . TLat vour petinaners commence ^—F / rsf , -with what is _< -tf . lrd " - the National D « bt , which was contracted 'it ^ out either their consent ortbat of their re presertTi 1 ? . ti \ r ^ , Your petitioners are aware that prejudiced
pr . j > -rriortUjt people have maintained that legislators ^"•^ n ri ? b t to contract debts to whatever amount thev choose , nnd to lay them as a burden on postentv io il , e end of time : we know that such people We maintained that the Legislature have the power ^ mo rtgage tbe labour of all fu hire generations , at jf ceir viiscretion . to whatever amount they p lease ; ^ 2 t tbe judgments of your petitioners revolt at such -- ¦¦ a .-irous doctrines , which they are coafident wonld >; "t meet with the sanction of a Parliament fairly fc - " . ' i-W 4 by the people . And when your petitioners •^ r * . ber rrfWt { bat a great part of this debt was con-Y * d in opposing their interert . * , and the interests ° i inaiikina . and with a view to uphold tyrannical principles of Government , they conceive ihe present trot
to be based on most untenable and unjust principles . _ A Second evil which your petitioners conceive r ^ Tiiu &iom the present partial and inefficient state « tbe representation , is the existing Com Laws ; *** , the effects of which are to take from the poor * &i give to the rich—laws which raise the price of l p riRST necessary of "fife , and reduce the means of ^ ttaming it—laws which do incalculable injury to £ « trade and commerce , snd which , if not repealed , - I nnall y snbvert our commercial pre-eminence . A- Third evil is flie great expense of ourmiKtarT ^ a naval establishmente j ' rfliese being" rendered ^^ sary in order to keep doTO a discontented and ^ afectedpopulation huty $ ur " petitioners , with all « j « deference to your Honourable Jiouse , humbly -tfeive it would b « a much more sonnd . humane * ,

and wise policy to have the people attach ^ ^ , Government from affection , from gratitude , from interest ^ md -m eoovittion of «» ^ wjatege * Qisf receive from it , than to be kept dQ # n ^ om mere military coercion . A Rmrih evil of which yo ^ t tteUtitsnen complain , is the Poor Law AmendsiehtBQl ) which presses so harshly on tlie labouring population . Your petitioners beg leave to direct the attention of yenr Hontraranle House to theor awful situation , as affected by the grievances of which they complain , by taking from thd population fifty miUwnt annually in direct taxation , and thirty in as indirect manner , by the Cora Laws , and other restrictions on commerce , ( and the latter sum is not the calculation of
your petitioner * , but of the most eminent political -economista of the age ) , your petitioner * are unavoid ably reduced to poverty and distress- , and when thus reduced , to poverty and distress by the measures sanctioned by your Honourable House , then when your Honourable House has reduced us to poverty , it enacts laws to punish us as criminals , because we ar& poor . Your Honourable House will easily con-<» ive with what respect , attachment , affection , and complaisance we must regard your Honourable House , for such an extraordinary manner of showing your regard and attention to our interests . Bu t great as must he our gratitude , profound as must be our veneration forthe regard , aflection , and benevolent attention of your Honourable House , we should still prefer having our interests either in our own hands , or in tbe bands of a Parliament , which was a f ; iir , jnst , and real representation of thepeople of the
United Kingdoms ; end we therefore pray your Honourable House , first , for the Extension or the Elective Franchise to all persons" of sane mind , untainted with crime ; second , for Annual or Triennial Parliaments ; third , for the protection of tue Ballot to voters in the exercise of their franchise . Your petitioners , in conclusion , beg leave to remind your Honourable House , that eighty millions , the sum taken from the people directly and " indirectly a-year , is nearly £ 4 for every man , woman , and child ; and as families average about tire individuals , th ? taxation will be nearly £ 20 per aucum for the head of every family in Die kingdom . 'J bus while your Honourable House takes nearly £ 20 upon an average from every familv , in direct and indirect taxation , yonr Honourable House is taking great pains to reduce , the small pittance of six or eight millions , which are given to the people in the shap <^ of poorrates .
Your petitioners , with all due deference to yonr Honourable House , beg leave to suggest tbat they humhlr conceive it would be much more rational , equitable , wise , and just lor your Honourable House to be solicitous to reduce tbe eighty instead of the eight millions ' , and by this means prevent disaffection , poverty , vice , and crime iu their origin , rather than ineffectually tamper with the effects , while you continue the cauin * in existence . And yonr petitioner * , a * in duty bound , will ever pray .

Peace . —Peace is the chief good of a coinmerci : il , irnd indeed of every people .. European nation ? , with all their improvements in civilization , are still too near the savage state while they terminate their contests by war . Nothing but self-defence can justify it .

Chinese Ixhabitaxts of Boats . —The river opposite to the town ( Can ' on ) is almost covered with beats of various sizes and descriptions , in tbe principal p ? . r : of which the owner ? , who are of the poorer class , reside . - Thousands are born , -brought up , and die in these boats , having no more communication with the shore than neces > lty compels . These boats are covered over in tbe after part with a kind of bamboo matting , sufficiently stronir asd -waterproof to keep out the rain , and of length
suuk'ient to allow , them to lie down unexposed to sight . These poor creature * , from being confined in so" small a space , accu ? tome < l to squat upon their harn ? , and crawl about their boar , are generally vcrv awkward in their motions when on their feet . Their malt children are taught the art of swimming as soon as tbc-y know the use-of their legs , until which tim ' p they wear a c-alabash sc-ptnued round their necks , to buoy tbem up in c ; use of their falling o % erboard . —M .

Novel Mode of Performing the Marriage Ceremony . —A somewhat novel mode of performing the marriage ceremony has taken place not a hundred milea from Curloss . " A knight of the plane having fairly overstept tbe bounds of the temperance society on Sunday eight last , took it into his head to pay . a visit to the servant lasses of a gallant cfTieer , after having been prohibited on pain of death to make the smallest trespass on tbe gallant gentleman ' s property . The inmates of the household being ^ 11 in bed before he reached the place tbe object of hu desire had to give him admittance before getting fully dressed , and , having got only a few paces along-the passage was accosted by the captain
habited in his dressing-gown , with a sword in hand , wto instantly demanded of the young man the purport of bis mission , and was answered as hurriedly as possible , that it was his servant maid he was in quest of , when the worthy justice put the question to both parties if they were willing to take each other in the bands of wedlock , was answered in the affirmative , when he instantly called from their slumbers others of his establishment to be witnesses , who got as short a time to obtain marriage dresses as did the trembling bride . The gallant captain immediately went through tbe marriage ceremony , still holding in his hand the fearful weapon , and having finished his oration returned his sword to the scabbard , and sent all the parties to bed .
The Beauty of Tbxjth . — "Wh y do men not love truth ? They love music ; they love beauty . Truth is both beauty and music . It is the rarest of all Tare h&xmoiries ; it is the agreement of all fine contrasts and similitudes . Nothing is so delightful as to watch the exquisite melting together of apparent incongruities ; the marvellous dependency' of what is light npon what is dirk—of what is rugged upon what is smooth and fzir . Certainly , moral philosophy is the highest sort of wisdom . Practical lnoralittf is a ground flower , and may be plucked by little : children ; moral philosophy is a cedar of Lebanon , towering up to the skies , foil of light and glory , waving to all sweet melodies of winds , and gathering in its embraces whatever associations are most august and abiding .

Franklin ' s Loan . —The following letter was ^^^ VE ^ V ^^^ ' ^^^' - ^^ ' ^^ m ' ' eomnranicated by tt » peraon who received if fp the person by whom it was originally published : — 1 April 23 , 1784 . I send you herewith a bill for ten J ^ uis-d ' orj I do not pretend to give such a s ^®} I only lend it to you . When you shall return to jour country you cannot fail of getting into som& business that will jn tuneenable you to pay all your debts . In that case when you meet with another
bonestman m similar distress , you mustjwy Why lending this sum . to him , enjoining him to discharge the debt by a like operation when he shall be able , and shall meet with such another opportunity . I hope it may thus go through many hands before it meets with a knave to stop its progress . This is a trick of mine for doing a deal of good with a little money . I am not rich enough to afford much in good work , and so am obliged to be earning and make the most of a little . "
Economy . — A riight knowledge of human nature will show , ' says Mr . Colquhoun , ' that , when a man gets on a little in the world , he is desirous of getting on a little farther . Such is the grewth of provident habits , that it has been said , if a journeyman lays by the first five shillings , his fortune is made Mr . 'Wm . Hall , who has bestowed great attention on the state of the labouring poor , declares he never knew an instance of one who had saved money coming to the parish . And he
addsmore-, over , 'those individuah ? who save money are better workmen ; if they do not work better , they behave better , and are more respectable ; and I would sooner have in my trade a hundred men who save money , than two hundred men who would spend every shilling they get . In proportion as individuals save a little money , they husband that little ; and there is a superior tone given to their morals , and they behave better for knowing they have a little stake in society . '
_ A "Ready Reply . —A few days ago , a gentleman and lady being together , the latter being in rather an ill humour wore vrhat we commonly call " a long face . " " My dear" said the gentleman to her ; " Why do you pull such a long face ?¦ '¦ You want nothing but a puir at long ears to make you resemble cne of the most patient creatures in tbe world . " "Sir , " replied she , " If I had need for the ears of an ass 1 should not have occasion to go far to find them . "
The Lost Ring Found . —In the year 1821 the wife of Edward Marriott , stocking-maker , Sutton-in-AshfieM , having declined to wear her gold wedding ring , wrapped it iu' paper , tied ¦ round with a thread , and placed it in a tea-caddy not in common use , which was kept in a cupboard . The caddy was a receptacle for many other trinkets—as necklaces , beads , &c , which some time after , with what it contained , she gave to a child , to pacify it in her absence . A long time after that , missing the ring , she recolk'ttt-d , when sweeping the house-floor , after the child had been indulged-as before stated , - that she threw a bit of blue paper , tied round with a white
iliri-: ; . ! , answering the description of that in which * he inclosed the ring , on the iire-back , and concluded it was gone for vvrr . If has'been . a practice , for many years past ,, for the working class to set potatoes on the fanners ' fallows with the manure they coHi'cr ; and-Edward Marrintt , sixteen years since , set ruhe fallow iie'd of Gwrw Penistonj with many more in Ki'parati' allotments . It : happens this year Edward Marriott set in the same field , and on the ^ anie allntmcnt . as sixteen years since ; and when gatherin " his crop nut on Ttiesday , the 17 th ult ., ciiseovered a c-in-le on one of the prongs of the fork

we further reflect Tipon tbe testimony given Lv fnanv manufacturing ] ul > ourers , before the " same (' vimmitteo > s , which testimony proved that , through Urft . wnnt of employment and tbe lowness of their - ' -wages , tbout-ands of faniilies were un ' ablato ¦ earn ' ;;< ire than from 10 d . to 21 d . per week for each individual in such families : and that-these . statements were well known to her Majesty ' s Ministers ,- ' who , or whose base tools , actually bfamed the M .

Horrible as this suffering is ' , both in dt" ree nnd extent , yet , althoneli her Majesty ' s Minivers-could not dap-rare any part of such statement , tbev could and did accuse thuse who brought it . forward , pi uomg so from motives of vanity , and of thv . de ^^ ni of thereby gsiining popularity " : they also accused them of exciting popular discontent / and of raisinjr expectations" wliich could never'be realized . ¦ " 1 say , then , they , her Majesty ' s'Ministers , after knowing the myriads of her Majesty ' s subjects are obliged to live or stnrve on five pounds or five
gunieas a year each , have actually proposed and carried , through both Houses of " Parliament , a motion " -to-grant to her Majesty , for ln > r own personal use , a sum greater than 7 HMQQ of such persons have "to live upon—so much for " ministerial equality —and all this extravagant sum to be . taken out pt tbe taxes . paid by the people . 1 blame not her Majesty-for this , she is merely .

TO THE EDITORS OF THE NORTHERN STAR . Gestlemex , —The president of the "Ihiddersheld Inteik'Ctual Improvement Society" hanng ( in the oration before alluded to ) frightened his hearers , or attempted to do so , by setting forth the dangers of innovation on the one hand , and paralyzed them on the other by descanting on the folly of hoping to attain perfection . —hanng guarded his conservatism by a Scylla and aCharybdis of his own conjnration , — he proceeded to remark on the nature of Reform . And let no one imagine that the opinions of the masterly and gigantic mind of the president are unimportant . In our first letter we enumerated several of his qualification . * , in order to show that it was no pigmy with which we were contending , but -we had not conceived him to be a giant , till we saw through the glass of the Halifax Gvardian
\ V ell , the gigantic personage then tells us " there is nothing in the nature of the British Constitution that repudiates reform , " and remember , ( says he ) that reformation in its true and legitimate signification is not innovation . " True , trne , and Sir R . Peel would say as much ; Peel is a reformer and will " reform all proved abuses 5 " "but the difficulty lies in proving to Sir Robert the " abuse . " He would prove its uses . Why , when "Walpole got the Septennial Act passed , he boasted that he had " equipoised the system . " Was it the Pope and his cardinals who first set on foot the reformation ? Did the Jesuits abolish the inquisition ? When there is no question before the House , every Conservative is n reformer ; but let reform appear in a specific shape , and Sir Robert and all his fraternity will new it as a " questionable shape , and denounce it as danger-
