Mr . Hau . briefly seconded the motion . Mr . SAJHtw obeerved , they had met this evening on a solemn oceasion . About this very time the imprisoned Tietims were stretching their weary aad equated limbs npon their iroa bedstocks , eonjSned within the cheertoea cells « f the oold dnneeon , » het * <** 7 of wretchedness , Bpeat , h may be , in the l »»»«« r « rf the treadmill , or doomed to the mental agony and torture of the silent Bystem . ( Great sensation- ) It makes one ' s blood run cold to think of thetreatoeat to whkhmen of generous minds are subjeeied , because , in the ardour of their feeling * , ^ J *?* / * * J sentiaents , the expression of w&ieh , in forster days , won whatever liberty we bo * st of in thetoi V * in , indeed , is the boast that Untona never shall &eBlaT «« . "
Hen of England , ye ate slaves , Though ye quell the roaring wares Though ye boast by land sea , Britons everywhere are free . Men of England , ye are slaves , Bought by tyrants , sold by knaves : Theirs the profit , ease , asd gain , Tours the toil , the swe&t , &e pain . Men ef England , ye are slaves , Beaten by policemen ' s atavos ; If their force ye dare repel , Tours will be the felra ' s eelL Hen of England , ye are slaves ; EVn the House of Commons craves From tbe Crcwn , on beaded Xnee , That its language shall be frae .
Hen of England , ye are slaves ; Bark ! the stormy tempest raves ; Tis the nation ' s voice I bear , Shouting , M Liberty is near . " ( Immense cheering . ) Has the language of the imprisoned Chartists been stronger than that of the Mu-aicipal Junta of Madrid , which is just now so much lauded by the English press . In their present struggle with the monarchy , they declare , in the words of their manifesto , " subjection eeaeea to be a doty the moment despotism begins . The treadmill should never be made a punishment for political offences , thus combining cruelty with degradation . But let the oppressor take care , that what is intended as a degradation ,
may yet become the source of triumph . What has occurred before 1 When the higher classes , in the malignity ot their hatred , determined to pat to dean him who had espoused the cause of the poor , they selected the meet ignominious and infamous mode of punishment—the cross . But what did his noble-minded followers do ! They elevated the gibbet of his shame into the standard of his glory , and beneath , the banner of tbe cross carried his name to the distant parts of the earth . Thus , also , will the results of oppression produce a re-action favourable to the cause of liberty . Has it not already done so I You nave heard the sentiments of Lovett and Collins—you have read the slowing and energetic
language of M'DooalL ( Cheers . ) Richardson will shortly be at liberty . Yinceut will be released , in the vehemence of his appeals to awaken and command your feelings—Carrier will tell his tale of Borrows— Bronterre O'Brien will again address the people with his accustomed ardoor—while Feargus O'Connor , the undaunted champion of liberty , will again plead the cause of right and justice , against power aad oppression . ( Long and continued cheering , with waving of handkerchiefs . ) Mr . S&ukey then commented forcibly on the unconstitutional language of Fox Maule , in justifying his preventing Mr . O'Connor from contributing articles to the Northern Star during his imprisonment . ( Hear . ) Viewed in a © onxtitutioiial lieht , Mr . O'Connor
should be . permitted to write for his paper , subject , of coarse , to the knowledge that he would lay himself open to another prosecution , if bis language outstpepped the limits of his prudence . Mr . Sanky questioned whether the prisoners might not , in some instances , bring an action against the visiting magistrates . Though these magistrates state that they were empowered by Act of Parliament to make regulations for the prisons , subject to the revision of the Home Secretary ; yet , it may be answered , these regulations must be within the limits of the law . For example , no regulation could possibly authorise the governor of a prison to inflict injury to the less of life or
limb . He would like much to see the question tried , and the judge himself put into the witness j box to declare whether he intended the prisoner to ' be subjected to such severity of treatment , ( Vehe-: meat cheering . ) In faet tbe New Act , called tbe \ Normanby Act , itself admits the outrages that had taken place upon constitutional law in the conduct of tho magistrates . Therefore he would advise them to memorialise the Government that all prisoners tried before the passing that act should at once be set at liberty as a compensation for the illegality of the sufferings they have already undergone , ( Great cheering . ) Mr . Sankey then nrged
upou the meeting to contend for Universal Suffrage . Tho se , said , he , who only ask for Household Suffrage , reverse the standard of Roman liberty . There , instead of the house conferring the franchise and citizenship , it was citizenship and the franchise that gave the right to possess the house . Yon , who are the unwilling slaves of an usurping oligarchy , determinately assert your rights for yourselves , and haviag won them , transmit them as the conquest ot your firmness , your perseverance , and 5 oar energy , to the care a&d guardianship of a grateful posterity . Mr . Sankey sat down amid loud and loDg-continued cheering .
Mr . Watkjns moved , and Mr . Renme seconded the fourth resolution : — Tbat it is the opinion of this meeting that the imprisonment of persons confined for political offences ought to be no more rigorous or vexatious than wonld ensure the safe custody of their persons—that they ought to be allowed every necessary article -which they can afford , together with the Jree use of all books and papers—that they should have apartments separate from the common felons ; and that this meeting , deeply deploring the Bituatien of their incarcerated and expatriated countrymen , pledge themselves to use every

EXTRAORDINARY EXPRESS FROM PARIS . The Times Office , Friday ^ Oct . 9 th . COITVOCACTON OF THE FiKWCH CHAMBERS , W ^ ba * e "weired , by wtraordinary express from J ^ M , ^ e MepitofrrParuien and the Messager of Wednesday night . They contain the following aanonncement : — ^ "The Chambers are convoked for the 28 th of October . Tho ordinance of convocation will appear to-morrow in the Moniteur . " 1 ThiB intelligence produced at Tortom ' s , on Wednesday night , a new panic . A fall took place nomi-, ^ L mtbe fimdB » but in faofc no directing price could be ascertained . The first bargain ( in the Three Cents done
per . ) was at 65 f . 75 c . A slight improvement afterwards took place , and they rose to- « 6 f . ; but our letters state that little or no business was done , aad that a species of stupor reigned amonjr the speculators . _ «¦»" The general rumours and belief were that M Tniers had pressed the King to consent to take measures tantamount to a declaration of war . That his MajeBty would only , in the absence of the Chamber ? , agree to a strong representation to the four Fowers . the reply to which could hardly be expected before the lapse of three weeks , and that the Chambers should m tbe mean while be convoked for the end of that period , when the views of the King or of hiB Government would be submitted to them , with the results of the last appeal to the Sovereigns parties to the treaty of the 15 th of July .
On Sunday evening , at the Theatre des Arts , at Kouen . the audience demanded the MarsaiHeise , while the overture to the Muette di Portici was Playing ; and one of the performers , with a tricoloured flag m Ms hand , came forward and fcune it amid tho load acclamations of the public . When the opera was finished , the Bavarian ehasseurs came on to perform the Marsailleise again , when the public again required that it should be snug , and the request was complied with . A similar scene took place the same evening at the Theatre Francaue of Rouen , when the Bavarian chasseurs also appeared and performed the air , but the people msiEted on having the words sung , and this was done accordingly . After the closing of this tneatre , a numerous group at young men went to the readenee of the British Consul ; in the Ru du Viowate , and suag the Marseillaise before his house ; they then proceeded to the resident * of
the general commanding the military division , and to the Hotel de ViUe , singing the Marseille at each piaoe . Before the Hotel de Ville , a commissary of police interfered , and desired them to disperse ; the persons forming the group replied , that they had no intention of disturbing the peace , and only wished to testify their disapprobation o the conduct of foreign powers towards France The crowd then separated , and no further disturbance took place . The National say * that the National Guards of Paris will assemble next Sunday in uniform , but without arms and will go in » body to the President of the Council and to Marshal Gerard , to make the demands which are specified in the article replied to by the Ministerial evening journals , and which we have given m a previous column .

MR . ROBERT PKDDIB . TO THB SDITOB OT THB KOBTHBKH STAB .
Tjeab 8 m , —You will , no donbt , remember that on the Saturday following the very foottah , lU-tlmed , and disgraceful attempt node in Bradford to create are-Tolnttonary movement , I caused a letter to be Inserted in you ? paper , headed " The Origin of M Bradford Outbreak , " » copy of which I have not now at hand , yet I recollect k > much ot its content ! as wilt subserve my present pturpose . From the etammstance * which preceded the carrying into operation that mad protect , I felt it my duty to animadvert on the conduct and chaneter of the individual whose name I have placed
at the head of this aote . other of yow « omepoodents continued the subject , and thel * eomrotuiicatlons strengthened the opinion I had formed of Mr . Peddle . Amongst those correspondents was George Julian Harney , a man in whose judgment and veracity I had the most unlimited confidence . However , as he has seen it his duty publicly to declare that the opinions he had conoeWed of Peddle were erroneous , hia letter , as a matter of course , must be given to the winds , and Peddie fully exculpated from the allegations therein contained .
For my ovra pert , I explicitly declare that since the trial at York , and tbeappearance of my friend Haruey ' s letter , I have viewed Peddie as one In the long list of Whig victims . Until the case was brought Into court , I knew not that a wretch like Harrison disgraced the soil of Yorkshire with the weight of his polluted , stinking , worthless , infernal carcase . Had I known that such a rascal breathed , and was a party in that afiaiT , l should nave saddled the right horse with the merited censure , and Peddie would not have engaged my attention , farther than as a man who hod acted a most foolish part ; such part , I believe , be did act , in conjunction with others , and I trust he regrets his connection with that lamentable affair .
I call it a lamentable affair ; because , had bo such wild schemes found supporters in the Radical camp , the brave O'Connor and many otber sterling patriots would now have been breathing the pure air , instead of being entombed alive in the dungeons of despotism . Yet I trust they will come forth from the prison house ( with Peddie in their midst ) more determined than ever to battle the foe and 11 Lay the proud usurpers low . " Many of my friends have enquired , of late , my present opinions of Peddie , to whose interrogations I have invariably replied that I consider he acted a very thoughtless and foolish part in the Bradford affair . Being told , last night , that a note from me might , if published , prove serviceable to him , I most cheerfully Bend you this for insertion in the Star .
As my days of agitation , on political subjects , have passed away , I would embrace the present opportunity of beseeching all true Chartists to abstain from all acts of violence , inasmuch as they not only disgrace , but greatly retard , the progress of freedom . I would likewise entreat them to beware of the serpent ' s path—discountenance all fxirtial measures of Reform—have no communion with the partisans of " Liberalism , " alias step by Btep Rerorm ; but contend for the fall measure of your rights—the rights of MAN , and leave the imaginary rights of bricks and mortar to the humbugs who would fain dupe you , in order to subserve party and sinister purposes . Universal Suffrage is a rightask for nothing less . Yours , truly , William Rideii . Leeds , October 6 th , 1840 .

Withomt it our rights cannot be attained—every bad law Is canted into effect in the different localities—it is there we feel its destructive 1 effects . Beat Friends , —We see society daily becoming more artificial—our numerous Institutions ax * pervertedthe misapplication of our mechanical improvements , which were Intended as a blessing to mankind in lessening manual labour , are turned to disadvantage and a curse to the people . The Government , with their coadjutor * , have imposed burdens which are Intolerable to be borne .

What an awful
picture does the present state of things present to every observing mind . Let your agitation be continued with spirit—take your own town ' s aflaira Into you ? own hands—awell your numbers at all the meetings where the interests of the people are concerned—pot as many of your own friends into office as you ' possibly can- —in all meetings at which you hate a voice , collect all tbe influence you can in opposing everything oppressive— - always be on the look out for the monster that you may detect him , however much disguised ( w ( heteln you have had measures forced upon you ) by increasing the number of your friends to act under them—in many oases the sting will be extracted , sod , by thus acting and controlling your town ' s affairs yon will soon be able to triumph over the tyrant whether he appears In the form of tithe , police force , reduction of wages , New Poor law , or any other species of oppression .
Snch a system of agitation , connected with the public advocacy of our principles , must succeed . Concentrate all your energies—combine all yeur powers in the bond of union ( which is strength ) making every agitation subservient to the gnat principles of Universal Suffrage . Let hope again inspire your souls—it is heaven ' s cause . What can withstand the united energies of the people , while the events » f each day are making fresh converts to the cease of liberty . Although I have near eighteen months longer to stay here ( the term , of my sentence ) continually exposed to the caprice of arbitrary sway , and held in a state of humiliating dependence , I hope to weather the storm of persecution , and re-enter the field of agitation with renewed vigour to proclaim Universal Suffrage—the nation ' s salvation .

10 THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHEBIf STAB . SIR , —Your insertion of the following address in your truly valuable paper , will much oblige your obedient servant , Michael Seghave . To the Irish Members of the Banwley Catholic Total Abstinence Society . Fellow-Countbymen , —I trust you will not consider it preBumptious in me to address you on a subject , important not only to yourself , but likewise to our country at large . I am well aware there are men amongst you far better qualified to take up the subject than myself , but when I find n « ne of you doing so , I consider it my duty to use my humble endeavours to admonish you to a sense of duty which you owe to the murdered patriots that have gone before you , and to the children that may come after you .
Fellow-countrymen , you know you have been compelled to leave your country through the means of bad government . You know that tyranny and oppression has caused thousands of our countrymen to leave the land of their birth—to seek refuge in other countries unknown to them . You must likewise be aware that the majority of our countrymen at home remain in a state of political ignorance for want Of an honest press being established amongst them ; therefore , it remains for you , aa sober , thinking men , having all opportunities of knewing your political rights , to embark in the great cause of Chartism , which alone can restore comfort and happiness to the oppressed millions ; but some of you may think the Charter cannot be obtained , and that a repeal of the Union will answer the ends of justice to Ireland . To those
Individuals I say neither of those countries can carry any great measure wk « n divided ; but when united they are Irreslstibla This Union can only be accomplished by the Irishmen , residing in this country , throwing to the winds all paltry differences , and stepping forward in the great cause of universal liberty . Yoa may depend it , our countrymen at home only require to know what course we steer , and they will speedily follow in our footsteps ; but were the Union repealed to-morrow , It is my candid opinion it WOUld be of little benefit to the industrious classes , except accompanied with Universal Suffrage . Were it repealed with the present franchise , the first step they would take , would be to elect a place-hunting crew who would legislate for themselves and party , whilst the industrious millions might work out a miserable existence in poverty and wretchedness .
Fellow-countrymen , you know the Chartists have numerous enemies to contend with . Witness the 12 th of August , when even the few paltry Irish Orangemen came patrolling the streets , armed with bludgeons , to try if they could get an opportunity of perpetrating some of those cold-blooded murders which they were usually accustomed to do at home . Does not tho chief prosecutor of your incarcerated countrymen belong to that hellish faction , who , with snooting parsons at their head , crimsoned tho fields of Rathcormac , with innocent blood ? and will you sanction those coldblooded murders , by standing aloof from the Chartists ,
whose avowed principles are freedom to all , exclusion to none ? " No , no , a thousand times no . " Once more , then , I beseech you to step forward and try to work out your political redemption , by enrolling yourselves amongst the Chartists , and I pledge myself there are not many amongst them but will take the pledge and enroll themselves as members of your society . I have the honour to remain , Fellow-countrymen , Yours in the cause of freedom , Michael Seguave . Barnsley , October 5 tb , 1840 .

Sib , —As that great luminary , the Northern Star , is ever ready to publish the correspondence which , may be received from any of those noble-minded patriots wbo are now suffering in the various prisons for advoeating the cause of humanity and justice , we beg leave to intrude on a short space of your valuable columns , as a few of the working men of Bury have held monthly correspondence with that noble-minded patriot , the Rev . W . V . Jackson , who is now suffering two years ' imprisonment for telling the truth , and have also afforded him some pecuniary aid ; but in consequence of our leaders being dead to the political world , We have not been able to do so much as we have desired , but we hope that these few lines may call forth the sympathy and support of tho working men of Bury for all those who are now suffering for political offences .

TO THE CONGREGATION OF BURY . Caatle , Lancaster , Sept 29 th , 1840 . Mt dear Friends , —I have great pleasure in complying with your requests in once more addressing you upon a subject which involves our individual and national interests ; but i must first discharge my debt of gratitude . Plftase to accept my many thanks for your continued expressions of sympathy and friendly aid , which , with tue aid afforded me by my congregation , hath delivered me from the degradation of a prison dress and felon ' s fare , to which I should otherwise have been compelled to submit In answer to yeur questions , I have not received one farthing from any individual or Association , ( luring the whole time of
my confinement here , with the exception of the above and twelve shillings , eleven of which were sent to me by my kind friends at Newton Heath . While I have been confined here , I have calmly and deliberately reflected upon the merits of the principles , for the advocacy ot which I am destined to two years' imprisonment within the precincts of this gaol , on a charge of conspiracy and sedition , which , of course , serves for a pretext . Although I am one of the victims selected by the illiberal and tyrannical Govtrnmenfc , my views remain unaltered as to the justness of our claims , and the legal right of tbe people to the elective franchise . Therefore , if by the sufferings inflicted upon me during my long term of imprisonment , . I can advance the cause of justice and freedom , 1 shall be amply compensated .
Notwithstanding I love liberty as much as any .. man , I will hazard all consequences rather than aubmiV iu silence to the despotic influence which is exercised over the great mass of the people in thia country . No man can calmly and deliberately investigate its political con-

TO THE EDITOK OF XHE KORTUERN STAR . Sir , —I beg respectfully to contradict a report published in the Star of September 19 th , in reference to the death of a woman at Grimble , and the character of the gentleman in whose service the husband had lived . The report is a tissue of falehoods from beginning to end . And with regard to the character of the gentleman whom it is intended to impeach , I can only say I have always found him an upright , charitable , humane , aad kind master , and that he is unworthy the remarks of your Rochdale Correspondent ; that he never knew my political opinions ; and , had he done so , I am certain be would not have taken advantage of them ; aad that my wife laboured under a mental affection , following a low , nervous fever , which caused her to commit the rash act which I have now to lament she did .
Be so good as to insert this , in order that truth may go f'jrth instead of falsities . Yours , respectfully , Thomas Dickson , Gardener , Orimble . Crimble , October 2 , 1840 .
