Ad Tad This, And Do As It Recommends Mr ...
AD tAD THIS , AND DO AS IT RECOMMENDS Mr Mr Beloved Friends . fhe ItThe Land question will keep—it will wait ; t the »\ the Election question will not ; and I wish , i Teovflreover , to convince the false prophets , that , th mjth me , at- least , the Land is of secondary imrtanc , rtance . while the CHARTER is of paramnt < wnt importance , and always has been . I am vstyvsomg to astonish you , by telling you that [ i hjiu have no right to complain of any one ievairievance , and for this single reason—that you i-e ijve it in your power , to-morrow , to separate wrclhurch from State ; to make FREE-TRADE
i natv national blessing ; to convert your BASIIL & ILES into colleges or hospitals ; to have the swerjwer of educating your own families ; to disenseense with a standing armv , and all pauper wis , iws , and to have a "FAIR DAY'S WAGE ( OR OR A FAIR DAY'S WORK ; " to be poslessoiessors of the entire fruits of your own indusry ; it | to secure sanitary reform , legal reform , lid and all other reforms"At * "Attend ! and mark your power . In 1 S 3 S I laid bid down the p lan b y which vou mav secure
i pii preponderance in the REPRESENTAflOJlON of the country ; I will now restate it , ind * ind # o simpl y that you cannot misunderstand it ; and jnd to understand it and not execute it is cri « minfrinal . I ^ 11 fake Blackburn for my illustrationtion . I " ill presume that in Black ' lmrn and disttfstrict * there are 8 , 000 men depending upon labolabour ; and I will presume that 300 electors , or enr even 200 , standing together , in addition to vhMiat principle could insure , would secure a cawcandidate ' s return .
> Sow , observe how this is to be done . Let the the 8 , 000 living upon labour divide the borourou ? h intOr 40 wards , 200 heads of families constitstituting' a ward ; this would give you 40 waward * , with 200 families to each . Appoint a v a ward secretary ; and allow the 40 ward secretaitaries to . constitute the CENTRAL
BOB ( BOUGH ELECTION COMMITTEE . When yoyour machinery is complete , get election bo books ; in each book let the address of your ca ; candidate be printed , followed bv a calm and re respectful appeal to the electoral body on his b « behalf . That appeal should explain how the si shopkeepers , to , whom it is made , live upon y < your wages , and hold the franchise in trust for X you . It should he written in very plain and si simple language , without the sli ghtest attempt a at eloquence or fine writing—written just as 1 I write to you , and should show that a
wellpaid labouring communit y is the soul and life of their trade . It should combat the folly that the return of your candidate would in anywise injure them ; it should show that Labour ' s improved condition would relieve them from police rates , poor rates , litigation rates , and many other vexatious burdens . That done , let the 200 names of wardmen be appended , and let the secretary wait upon the butchers , bakers , grocers , tobacconists , and corn and bacon , and butter and cheese , ' and ^ soap and candle dealers , and say that he has called with a fixed and determined resolution , adopted by those 200 heads of families , not to deal with any shopkeeper who shall not vote for their candidate ; and let those shopkeepers who are willing to do justice to themselves and you , sign and pledge to vote for your man , and
DEAL ONLY WITH SUCH . Don ' t hold out exclusive dealing as a threat , but PRACTICE IT IS A REMEDY . Then mark ! One butcher , one baker , one grocer , one tobacconist , and one provision-dealer , in each ward , gives you SCO electors . 200 heads of families , I will presume , spend 10 s . each amongst those five , or one hundred pounds a week , or £ 20 with each shopkeeper in the week , that is . £ 1 , 040 per annum . I know I am much under the mark , as there are over 6 , 000 members in the Weavers' Union alone , and in nine weeks they have expended £ 2 , 260 in a strike , while one-tenth of that amount would secure them against strikes . Of course , you can , unfortunately , command all the publicans and beer-shops—and SHUT THEM
UP—DRY THEM—STARVE THEM OUT , if they refuse to support you . This done , the 200 wardmen are relieved from anv further work , and the BOROUGH CENTRAL COMMITTEE should meet at least twice a week ; and on each Monday , after work , there should be a large out-door meeting , to hear reports from the general secretary ; and the best men should be selected to address the people , to show them their power ; and the candidate should be p ledged , in writing , to resign Ms seat when called upon b y a majority of a public meeting convened for that purpose , and of which ten clear days' notice should be given to him and to the people .
In Blackburn you have over 2 , 000 , of my ' •' OLD GUARDS , " and 4 , 000 of my JUVENILE STATESMEN ; mid I WILL GIVE YOU A LOAN OF THEM , as MrDuncombe said to theWhigs . I wish you to remember that all who were six years old when I commenced political teaching are now of FULL CHARTER AGE—twenty-one years . Let me now show you what an united people can effect . In lS 33 , " l 834 , 1837 , and 1841 , the Irish people , in spite of landlords , parsons , magistrates , Government influence , soldiers and police , returned a majority of IrisSrmembers pledged
to their princi p les , while all England can onl y return ONE . " Yes , " you answer , ' ' but what a set they were I" True , I admit it ; . but their turpitude does not affect the argument . The reason that Ireland has been so often sold is , because there has existed no vig ilant popular control in the country—because the fomentors of strife and getters-up of agitation lived upon popular confidence and popular ignorance . None but members dared to speak , or were privileged to speak , at the 2-ational gatherings , and they spoke the language of slaves seeking patronage . If an
occasMHi-prii'ifeged stranger spoke out of TUNE the organ-master silenced him , and the spellbound dupes hissed him down . No working man ever dared to speak ; and if one ventured to reason , his INSOLENT INDEPENDENCE JUSTIFIED HIS DISMISSAL , which was hailed with unanimous applause . In Ireland there never has been a popular movement , except in 1823 , when I was obliged to fly my country for ^ thirteen months to escape the threatened vengeance of Casllereagh , and in 1832 , when we would have abolished tithes bat for Mr O'Connell , who sold us neck
and crop , had us tried and persecuted , and broken up ; and there never will be a popular movement in Ireland until the Irish people who work are allowed to speak their mind and are REPORTED BY THE PRESS . I contend , without fear of contradiction , that the English people are better prepared for liberty than any people , not only in Europe but in the world , and I sav , with vanity , that 1 have brought them to that state- The French are uot prepared for liberty , and for this single reason , —because the people have not had the privilege of meeting and discussing their
g rievances , and , bad as Louis Philippe is , the Government of the middle classes , that will be hniled as a substitute for his , will be , beyond all comparison , a more tyrannical and anti-popular government . The next French change v . ill be effected against A BAD SYSTEM ; the next English change will be effected for A GOOD SYSTEM . Sow , herein is all the difference : an untutored , badly-directed people contend merely against A BAD SYSTEM : a tutored , well-directed people contend f r A GOOD SYSTEM- The people of England would , NOW , no more tolerate a
PHYSICAL REVOLUTI ON than they would abandon their CHARTER ; and why Bemuse the sound , and tutored , well-directed mind of Kaehnd sees ia its moral power , the means of effecting a disuse , winch , if effected by physical force , would be used by thei middle class as an engine to destroy popular influence . I have told you a million of times that dixcussiunisthe very mainspring of leg islati's . n , and v « u owe your greatness to that fc' . rce , DISCUSSION—to every man ' s right to abuseFeargusO'Connor , andjto his rig ht to abuse them in turn . [ Sow , I tell y ou that even

the American people are not fit for liberty , and will not be fit for liberty till they have estauhshvd their normal schools and preparatory schools , in which the growing generation learn the true meaning of the term LIBERTY , — rniT tn f , ^' hole . people are made to abhor CRUELTY of every sort , and until thev are taught the relative position of classes , superiority solely depending upon INDUSTRY , INTEGRITY , and USEFULNESS ; and then honour would be conferred on the virtuous only , and their recei pt would stimulate others to deeds of real greatness . I know of no such the American people are not fit for libertv . and
preparation for the next election as I have described , and , therefore , I know that you DON'T WANT THE CHARTER ; and your enemies must naturally believe that you are governed to your TASTE . In Paris , the Reformers , as they fancifully call themselves , have bad a grand banquet in honour ofelectoralrefovn :. We showed them the road ; but the French TEOPLE are not prepared for it . The Swiss have a Republic ; but the lower orders are perfect slaves , and merel y because they allow their SUPERIORS to buy and sell them . I spent a week in the frontier town of
Switzerland . My landlord had been ten years in England and Scotland , and as I wasengagep writing a letter from that town ( Chiasso ) to you , I heard a great row , and ran down stairs and found the landlord threshing a great big fellow without shoes and stockings . I asked the cause of quarrel , and the landlord said , " You see , sir , there is one law for the RICH and another for the POOR , here as well as in England ; this fellow has been sleeping in my loft , and lounging about here , though he could earn an HONEST LIVING . " " How do you know ? " said I . " Why , " said
he , " I offered him good wages for SMUGGLING- for me across the Alps ; but he prefers De & g » ng I shall now call your attention more fully to what the next Government move will be : it will be theendowmentof the Catholic priesthood and the admission of a portion of the Catholic prelates to the House of Lords ; in the first instance , such prelates as Archbishop Murray , who can be safely entrusted with the protection of monarchical privileges ; and , mark my words ! he will be as faithful a guardian as the Protestant Bishop of Exeter . In the first
experiment the Archbishop of Tuam , Dr M'Hale , will not be admitted to a seat in the Upper House ; but the old system , based upon the union between Church and State , being nearly exploded—the Whigs under Russell , or the Tories under Peel , will look to the infusion of new blood and new appliances , and will rely upon the Catholic hierarchy to supply them . There is . a gulf between the Catholic hierarchy and the inferior clergy , but the blow will be aimed by the English Government , the Pope , and the Irish Catholic prelates , and we must be prepared to resist it to the DEATH .
Ireland will be prepared , if the people are properly tutored ; but what I fear is , that the English Treasury will do the work of a
DOUBLEBARRELLEDSTATECHURCH . The Pope requires protection against the Austrian despot , and the English g overnment must have protection against Irish agitation , and the Catholic hierarch y will be enlisted . You must not overlook , or lose sight of , this prospect , nor must you forget that at the REFORMATION , as it is whimsically called , when the nation by a sudden impulse turned from Catholic to Protestant , to gratify the * beastly lust of a beastly king , that , with the exception of about seventy of the inferior clergy , the priests followed the bone , and changed religions for the tithes ; and whatever splutter may now be made , believe
me , the BIG DOGS will look for the BIG BONE , and Ireland will be once more diverted from the consideration of its CIVIL RIGHTS by relig ious feuds . Every honest man in the world , whetherCatholic or Protestant , is bound toresistthisDOUBLE ADULTERY , this double State-Church communion . God knows one is bad enough , but two would be a double p lague ! Resistance to such a project should be put to every candidate , and should be enforced by every constituency . What 1 have said of Blackburn applies equally to Halifax , \ Nottingham , Derby , and all other towns ; and yet who will do it ? James Sweet will be the first man
in England to set the example , and "William Beesley will be apt to follow it . I have done my duty in mapping out the plan ; you will not have done yours tilljou carry it out . No ; you will threaten your power of exclusive dealing , whereas you should COMMENCE it on Saturday ni ght , and Roberts , Jones , M'Grath , and scores of others would be sent to the House of Commons to represent you . Men of Halifax 1 will you do this ? and Jones is secure . Men of Leeds' will you do it ? and Sturge is secure . I beg to acknowledge ONE
POUND from a friend , for Sturge ' s election , and I beg to say that if I had a hundred votes I would g ive them all to Sturge , as he is the very sort of man we want—men who evince courage and boldness in resisting the prejudices of their own order . I hope to bear that after ten years' enforcement of this plan , that it is now to be carried out , and then the PRESS will be compelled to notice us , and confess our strength , our union , and our devotion . Ever your faithful Friend , Feakgus O'Conxob ,

Warrington Tea-Party. We Have Seldom Wit...
WARRINGTON TEA-PARTY . We have seldom witnessed a more glorious exhibition than our town presented on Monday evening last ; the two factions respectively contending for the honour of being slaves to a Whig Railway Contractor , and a Tory Brewer ; the Whig Free-Trader fighting the Tory with his own . weapons—OPEN HOUSES—to debauch the thoughtless : > ' And here we may mention , that the sum of £ 10 odd was paid to one little Beer-house man for Whig knowledge , in one evening ; and yet , though . the town was in : tended to be kept in a drunken bustle , nevef was there a more sober , orderly , and attentive audience than that which crammed the TOWN-HALL on Monday evening .
The PKOGRAMME was as follows ; and the several speakers did ample justice to the subjects assigned to them : . , "Tea on the table at half-past four , p . m . A variety of airs , Ac ., will be performed during tea on the splendid organ , at which Mr Kay will preside . After tea the proceedings will be opened by the chairman , W . P . Roberts , E * g . —Solo organo ,. Mr James Kay . —Feargus O'Connor , Esq ., wuT ' then address the meeting —Solo organo , Mr James Kay . —A q interval often minutes . . Any person wishing for information , or desirous of asking any question relative to the Land Scheme , by reducing the same to writing and handing it to the chairman , will be answered upon the proceedings being resumed . Proposed by Mr Peter Ashton , seconded by Mr Thomas Richardson , ( the two persons who are about to take their departure to the Company ' s Estate , Lowbamh" ) , and
supported by Mr E . Lawless , who will make the statement of the Warrington branch : — "That this meeting presenilis best thanks to F . O'Connor , Esq ., for his disinterested services in the cause of the people ; also for his kindness in attending ; this meeting . ' —Solo organo . Mr J . Kay . —F . O'Connor , Esq , will then take the chair . Proposed by Mr J . Hargreaves , seconded by Mr U . Anderson : —' That the thanks of this meeting are due , and hereby given to W . P . Roberts , Esq , for his prompt kindness in consenting to take the chair upon this occasion . '—Solo organo , Mr James Kay . —W . P . Roberts , Esq ., resumes the chair . Proposed by Mr Lawrinson , seconded by Mr Taylor : —* That the thanks of this meeting be given to J . I . Blackbume , Esq ., M . P ., for allowing the use of the Hall for the tea party . ' Platform tickets , is . 6 d . each . Refreshments will be provided in the room after tea . —B . Dkomooole , Secretary . "
Messrs 0 Connor and Roberts were met at the station by a large concourse of the working classes , and were escorted through the town in an open carriage , amid the hearty cheers of the populace , Drid were received in the Hall with several rounds of applause . Mr Anderson , in moving Mr Roberts to the chair , said , that it was an unusual thing to find a Solicitor preferring FAME TO FEE ; however , such , he could state from his own knowledge , was Mr Roberts ' s present position , as he had refused a large fee to attend at Blackburn that day , rather than disappoint Messrs LION AND STUBBS . ( Immense cheering . ) After a few appropriate remarks , Mr Roberts was voted to the chair , and a more glorious exhibition of popular feeling we have never
witnessed on any occasion ; The several speakers acquitted themselves to the satisfaction of the meeting , but the speeches of Ashton and Richardson , the two allottees about to be lotated at Lowbands , were particularly touching , from their simple eloquence and real thankfulness . According to the arrangements the chairman invited any person who wished for information to question Mr O'Connor , whereupon a person in the body of the Hall asked how a man could support his family and save £ 100 a year upon four acres , and if Mr O'Connor calculated at the present price of wheat ? Mr O'Connor replied , that he had laid down the mode of culture , and that he had only estimated wheat at 50 s . a quarter , not at 100 s . or 120 s . ; potatoes 3 d . a stone , instead of 3 d . a pound ; and all by wholesale price .
A Mr West , a Quaker and manufacturer , who was on the platform , and who appeared to take great interest in the proceedings , requested to be allowed to make an observation , and was loudly cheered : he said that he knew a cottager who sold the produce of nineteen Cheshire rods , that was just forty statute rods , or a quarter of an acre , for £ 17 12 s ., ( loud cheers)—they were potatoes , and he would have a second crop on the same ground ; and be had now on the platform one pound six ounces of potatoes dug from one stalk , off land that was waste last year , ( cheers , ) and believed much more might be done . After the speeches , Mr O'Connor entered into an argumentative conversation for a length of time , which appeared to give unbounded satisfaction ; when
Mr Roberts ( upon thanks being proposed to him ) rose , and made a slasher upon the magistrates , whom the people ' s co-operation bad driven into retirement ; and upon the TEETOTAL policeman , who would never again break open a poor man ' s box ; and concluded a very eloquent appeal by assuring the meeting , that whether in or out of parliament he would always prefer popular fame , honestly earned , to professional gain . The meeting gave several rounds of applause , and Mr O'Connor left for Lowbands , to prosecute his operations .

I have much pleasure in publishing Mr . Aoklam s letter , and thank him for it . —F . 0 . C . Barnsley , July 10 th , 1817 . IIoxoraw > Sib , —Your letter in this day ' s Star has quite paralysed me . For your satisfaction , I beg to say no earthly consideration , however lucrative , could have prompted me to address the questions contained in the Star . There is not a man connected with our cause that has a greater regard for your personal welfare , or a higher opinian of the Land Plan , than I hare : let my name perish rather than Thomas Aeklam act the part of a ' Brutus' to
F . O'C , Esq ., in my opinion , the greatest benefactor of mankind . The subject will be taken up to-mor . row night by the members of the Land Plan , and the Star will have the result of their investigation . Allow me to say , sa much do I value my fortunate allotment that I would not take one hundred guineas for my lot . I am a practical landsman , and fully believe it is the only means to effect the poor man ' s redemption . Sorry thus to trouble you , and wishing you success in your every effort to bless and emancipate mankind from the miseries of a rattle-box and the fear of a bastile , I remain , Your obedient Servant , To F . O'Connor , Esq . Thomas Acklam .
I Have This(Friday) Morning Received A L...
I have this ( Friday ) morning received a letter from the real'T . A ., of Barnsley , ' who was not Thomas Aeklam , apologising for his of last week , and acknowledging that he wrote the letter , though not a member , but that he and his friends havesince joined . Now , although I approve of all caution before working men risk their money , does not this fact prove that moat oppaaition arises—as I predicted—from non members ? It was wrong in the writer to have taken the initials of one whom he knew bad get his prise from Barnsley , and to whom bis letter would noturally be attributed . Your faithful Friend ,
Fjsarocs O'Conxob . P . S . —It would be impossible for me to be at Nottingham or Derby on the 26 th , as I have to attend an important sale on the 27 th , at a considerable distance from both places ; but I will make an early appointment . The same to my friends , of Ilanley . 1 wish Dr M'Douall to send me his address without any delay , as 1 have an important communication to make to him . Thanks to the men of Blackburn for their communication , just received—thev are on the
right tack ; and our Attorney-General shall be our member . Would to God all working men were infused with my spirit for a single month , and the Land Would be free ; the rick would be richer ; and poverty would be a crime , as it could only arise from idleness or dissipation ! I am going on here gloriously ! 1 have made dung enough , of the best quality , for SO acres , since 8 th March , and shall yet have a large heap for every oeeupant ; so my enemies and opponents jdpjt all go TO THE D £ V & , F .

HALIFAX .. , * f *^« l |& fi » iwi ^ length an address recency delivered fcy > Mr Ernest Jones to the electors anu non-eleotors . ' Since then a great meeting has been held in Mr Anson ' s large room , which was filled to overflowing , and an immense concourse assembled in the yard and streets , and covering the roofs of the houses adjoining . Mr Ernest Jones addressed the meeting from the win . do w . After the lecture several electors pledged their votes in favour of Mr Jones .
On Monday evening , July 12 th , according to announcement , a public mooting of non-electors was held in the Ladney Croft , when Mr George Webber was unanimously cnlled to the chair . Mr Webber , in an able and effective speeeb , exhorted the people to be firm and united , and they could secure the return of the men of their choice , Messrs Jones and Miall . Mr Bowden next addressed the-meeting in his usual energetic style , and called upon the meeting to use every moral means in their power to secure the return of their favouritecandidates . Mr B . Rushton , the West Hiding veteran , delivered a powerful speech in favour of Mr Jones , which had a great effect on the meeting .
Altera vote of thanks to the chairman , the vast assemblage , consisting of several thousands of peoile , quietly dispersed . On Tuesday evening Mr Ernest Jones again addressed the electors and non-electors at North-bridge , from Mr Barraclough ' s garden . Mr Gaukroger was called to the chair , and opened the business of the evening in an energetic and truly eloquent speech . Mr Ernest Jones then addressed the meeting _ at considerable length on the subject of the election . There could not have been less than seven thousand present , and altogether such an assemblage has not bieu witnessed in Halifax for many years . At the conclusion , three hearty cheers were given for Messrs Jones and Miall , and several electors pledged for Mr Jones .
The following address has been extensively published : — ADDRESS OF TUX NON-ELECTORS TO TUB ELECTORS OF HALIFAX . _ Gbntlemek , —You are on the eve of a general election , and right glad are we that the experience of the last few years of blundering and abortive legislation of your members has opened your eyes to your true interests . Society is rapidly progressing onwards , and you plainly see it is absolutely necessary that you should select members of parliament who will assist the countiy to remove every obstacle in the way of good and cheap government . Thh lesson
has been bard to learn . The people of England have been too long the passive subjects of oppression , without even a chance of bettering their condition . Thank God , this information has at last got abroad , although it has been purchased at an enormous amount of suffering , the condition of the labouring classes being reduced to a state of misery and degradation beyond all precedent , whilst bankruptcy and ruin are hanging over the mercantile and trading establishments of the country . Still , we would not encourage a spirit of despair , * we hope the united efforts of electors and non-electors may yet obtain such a parliament as will consider the interests of the nation as one and indivisible .
Several meetings of electors and non-electors have been held in this town , to determine who shall be called upon as candidates for this place , and it was unanimously agreed that MESSRS JONES AND MIALL were fit and proper persons to discharge the important trust attached to members of parliament ; and if the Liberal electors and dissenters stand to their principles they will be returned . It very seldom happens that objections are not raised against a candidate not being in every point of
view suitable , to the individual taste and fancy of some elector . It should be remembered that they have the vote to exercise for the benefit of the nonelectors ; the rote is not the vote of the electors alone , but also the vote of the non-electora ; it is no toy to be played with , no commodity for their private use , nor ought to be disponed of contrary to the wish of the majority ; and we think the only rational method is to vote for men who will pledge themselves to the advocacy and support of great principles , and the furtherance of measures calculated to ameliorate
the condition and advance the general interests of the country , and who engage to retire from the representation at the close of a session whenever a majority of electors and non-electors think proper ; in that case you would not have to be annoyed with their blunders and misdeeds for the long period ol
seven years . There is one thing we may be assured of , that the choice of candidates for this borough is full as likely to answer your purpose as the choice of many other constituencies . Do we not find them sending ( oxhunting parsons , mad-blooded soldiers , unprincipled lawyers , horse-racers , gamblers , and some of the veriest harum-scarums that could by possibility be raked together throughout the length and breadth of the land ? It has been remarked , that this borough is as rotten as old Sarum ever was , and this is ab out to be tested at the ensuing election ; it will then be seen whether the electoral blight has affected dissenters more than the potato blight the potatoes .
We deprecate exclusive dealing when brought to bear on persons who conscientiously differ in their political views and opinions ; but we fear there arc persons who call themselves Liberals , and LiboiuJ dissenters too—persons in trade „ and shopkeeperswtoo will acknowledge they are entrusted with the franchise in order to obtain the greatest good for the greatest number , who , when they come to vote , will not only discard this duty , but vote in direct opposition to their own avowed principles . ' la all canes of this description , it certainly will be an apology , and
indeed can scarcely be considered wrong for persona seeing this , whether they be electors or non-electors , to attcrwatds make a selection of those tradesmen who act consistently on general and avowed principies ; for such conduct , wo think , cannot f ' aiii to win the favour of a discerning public , unless virtue and honesty should be allowed to go tmrcwardsd or unnoticed . We leave you to your choice , as well as those who are inclined to take the crooked path at the election , and claim for ourselves the free oxercise of our judgment in the selection of our tradesmen AFTER TUB ELKCTION .
The poll booh will give us the names of bi & ose who keep their votes in their pockets—of thoa-aj who are induced to abscond into sumo skulking hole till the election is over—of those who remain at home under sonic sham illness , as well as those , who plump er split their votes in opposition to thein- previous opinions . All true Liberals and Dissenters will feel obliged - « o vole for those who will support ths-ir cause . Ttey cannot in justice give their vote to one who in yarliaraent would oppose their just claims , and * ven trample to extinction their B & hts and liberies .
Shrink not ,, then , from thisavo « ed advocacy « f your principles ; . yo » r causo ishoJy and claims yoi ^ attention . Religious freedom caa only bo secuTeil by the establishment of wise institutions , and a general support of civil liberty ; libwty dwells with , the millionsj . tyranny with the few , in all natkaa . Strive , thea , to get members who will , as far as , in them lies , obtain tho greatest good for the greatest number , for such men are the keepers and the oniy good security ef property , liberty ^ and every thing valuable on earth . Suffer not the stand-still policy of the Whigs , nor the calls for backward-movements of the Torias , to draw you from the palh of'daty .
A lew moments' reflection will convince all electors who wish to progress with the people , that they connotvotc for the present members , nor can they , with any consistency , split their votes between them and a now candidate , tor this would neut / alize their vote , and make the election a nonentity ; then-fore the honest and straightforward course will be to stick to MESSRS JONES AND MIALL through evil and through good report , whether we win or not . Discharge the duty reposed in you faithfull y , and if you faiiin tie « ttaii « Rcat < jf your wishes , y ou can retire

Mr Hardy has issued an address to the electors in which he expresses himself as decidedly " opposed to ? all national or s-tate-made religions . " He Is also opposed to the government interference with the education of the people , for reasons which he states-at length . He adds : — I shall oppose all wan , er preparations for war , as- an . unmixed evil , I am opposed to monopolies , such as- the law of primogeniture , the law of entail , and any othen which gives one set of men preference over others when their claims are equally just . The game-laws , that source of iniquity and nursery for crime , I shall do . nil in my power to destroy . I am in favour of' extending the suffrage to every man of twenty . one years of uge ,, nho has not been found guilty of crime by a jury of his countrymen . I shall vote for the repeat of the lawswhich tar the light of the sun , the air we breathe , and those articles of consumption sent by Providence for the benefit « f mankind .
In conclusion , Mr Hardy declares that he will not canvass the electors , but will meet them for the purpose of answering any question they may put to him . Nor will he appoint any committees or agents , " which , " says Mr Hardy , " I consider is th & electors business and not mine . "

Mr Tn < m *» Clark , amids & much- cheering , submkted the following reisoJution :-s-That , in the opinion at this mcttiny , no-candid ate for parliamentary honours is entitled'to the * aj > port of the working classes who will not pledge hiriiwlf t « make the enfranchisement of the wholesm > le > ado ! t population , of the empire the primary object of lihimissiOB . Mr Slark said he had only h ? ard one of the candidates for t & at borough , namely , Sir Bi Dall , and he did not eaaetly know how far he" would griias regards the Suffrage , but he believed ono « f 'theircandidates had declaied for Universal Suffrage . —( Loud cheers , ) ' and it was their duty to support liim . Evtu'the non-: electors had great influence , and he-invokedi them to iuse it unsparingly for Universal Enfranchisement , jlte understood that there was a small . society in this borough called the "Reform RegistraHomAssociafcion , " who had taken upon themselves-to say who >
should , and who should not , be candidates- ( Hear , hear . ) He only repretted that tba-fUbiversal Suffrage candidate had consenti d to be » bound by the decision of this body . He looked at tins proceeding as being wrong in principle , depriving as it did large bodies of the people of the . ixereise of the franchise . ( Hear , hear . ) They had « got rid of ono Whig placeman from that borough ; . let tham take * care another was not palmed upon > taem . The way to prevent this was to canvass every . street in the borough , in favour of the man who advocated the great principle contained in the resolution which hesow had the honour to submit . ( Loud ebeers . ) Julian Harney seconded the resolution in a powerful speech , in the course of which he-strongly urged that no candidate should receive , popular support who would not give a written plcdgerto battle for the Charter in the House of Commons .
Mr P . M'Gbatk in rising to support the resolution said , he saw their friend Richard . Oastlerpresent ; lie should much like to see him come-forward , ard receive that reception which such a ; geod , generous ,, and virtuous philanthropist so justly deserved . Mr Oasiier rose in the body of tha meeting , and was greeted with the most vehement'cheering , and said he had come there simply as-a * nitre listener , and hence he preferred remaining where he was . He had just heard from Mr Harney that Democracy would notestablish tyranny , and- 'he-wns determined , to show that Democracy should not' tyrannise over a " King , " by dragging him to the platform . ( Loud laughter and applause . ) Mr M'Grath resumed : He thought it our duty to send as many as possible to represent Chartist principles in the Commons ' - ' Howe ( f Parliament ; and if any man presented himself to their notice who was atraid to avow himself the
advocate of the rights ot the working classes , why , inthe language of Mr Harney , it was their duty to tell him to go about his business ,. for most certain ifc was that th y would effect no good until such timesas they had men to represent them who , like their honourable chairman , would go " the whole hog . " ' ( Loud cheers . ) The Whigs were again supplicants for their suffrages , and they would promise anything , but in such a way that no one coultl understand them , ( llear , hear . ) lie advised thie electors to pledge their candidates for an entire separation of Church and State , ( loud cheers , ) but never to forget that the great point was the Suffrage . He was informedthat one of their candidates , , MrD , W . Harvey , would vote for the Charter , whole ami entire , like their worthy chairman , and hence it was their duty to use allthe influence they possessed ! io ensure his election . The resolutioen was theniunaniinously adopted . Mr IIeniiy IlETnEniNGiofr rose to move the follow *
mg resolution : — That Jfr D . W . Harrey , the People ' s candidate ferine borough of Marylebone , possesses in an eminent degree talents and zeal , perseverance and courage ; and , above all , the uispoMtion to . dtiote these great syi & Me * to the amelioration and improvement of eur political and social institutions ; and , as the electors ci : n demonstrate his fidelity to the popular cause by an appeal to his past parliamentary sinwoes , this meeting , believing him to be a moat efficient defender of the Peop ' e ' i , rights , pledge themselves to use tliiur bett tfibrts to secure his
election . Mr Uetheri-voton , soldi be had known Mr Harvey for many years . He hnd-siood by the working alassos in the days of their- persecution , and henoe ho thought it their bound « n duty to supporti him . ( Cheers ) Lord Dudley , Stuart had declared tha-Suffrage was a privilege-,, that Game-laws r / era necessary to induce noble- lords to visit the-country , and he would upholdtihe-Establisbed Church in its integrity .
