13 THE _CHABTISTs OF IHE WEST _EIDKU OF TOBKSHIRE . Bkoiher _Chahtists , —We feel it absolutely necessary at thi 3 peculiar period , to appeal to yon ea behalf of that great cause to which , on _suoh occasions as public meetings , lectures , and discussions , and especially at elections , you appear so heartily attached ; and . when danger threatens our principles , or when faction menace with the laws vengeance to persecute the advocates of onr cause , there you invariably ara at your _poste _, manifesting , inthe most unmistakable manner , that it is utterly impotsib ' e for you ever to join any movement but the one tbat is ca ' cnlated to secure yoa those just rights which have been too long withheld from you , and which will never be conceded until we are thoroughly united in
one firm bond of brotherhood . Tbe West Riding of Yorkshire has ere now been particularly _distinguished , in more ways than one , for its Son adherence to those great principles of universal justice , the attainment of which is not far distant , if we have the _sMnUoess to demand tbem . Your privations and rretsh -d abodes are not less numerous or severe than ; hey were formerly . Yau are still giverned by the ¦ ime cruel ard oppressive laws . Yon were no more at the will of ac * _pricions employer then than now . Then yon heard your children ' s cry for food , and had none to give tbem ; and now , many are the scanty _ineiU while performing a hard diy ' a work , you bave with painful anxiety to sit down to . Do not forget this one s _' ngle fact—it of itself is surely enough to arouse you to action . The heartless Whigs are in _pawer—that liberal despotic faction—who first
persecuted our leaders , end then tried trickery and sophistry , to divert ns from the prosecution of our _rights ; and failing in _bith . as a last _resourse __ to defeat our object , offered to form a coalition . ministry wr the vain _puroose of saving themselves from utter annihilation . You cannot be blind ' to these things . Look at Halifax , where the Chancellor ofthe Exche quer was forced to _report to the temporary _expedient of uniting with a . Tory for the purpose ef escaping the evident and immediate destruction in * vincible Chartism had prepared for him . Everywhere Whig and Tory are amalgamating—a proof of the _a-ivan _^ j our principles are making . Renewed iffjrts , a , ' . p _esenf , are especially called for . To remain aloof or a •¦ iihetic just now , is to create yourselves a elo , ' to t ' n energies ef those who feel _themselres bound t ' _l-Htiaddr-tssyoH .

To The Members Of The National Land Comp...
TO THE MEMBERS OF THE NATIONAL LAND COMPANY . Friends , —A poor , honest , and respected officer of onr Company has been ruthlessly slain in open day in the public streets eiSlealbrdV The assassin is an officer of the peace , a protector of lifeand property , a superintendent of police ' . As yon must , ere hew , be aware , an investigation info the circumstances of Dodson ' s death , has taken place before a coroner's jury , and in direst opposition to the testimony of every witness examined , a verdict of excusable homicide was" returned !! The members of the Land Company , resident in Sleaford , disgusted at thegross
partiality of this verdict , resolved to bring the case for a hearing before the magistrates of that town . They applied to ns to aid them in their laudable endeavours to obtain justice , Mr E . Jones , hearing of their anxiety npon this melancholy subject , generously volunteered his professional _Eertices . We sent him down to Sleaford . The hearing came on , and , notwithstanding that twenty-eight witnesses , some of them reluctant ones , proved that an innocent man was brutally slaughtered by an infuriate , drunken official ; the magistrates , in the fullness of their wisdom , dismissed the case !! and Sharpe , the slayer , emboldened by impunity , is let loose on society again to follow the predilection of hia
murderous nature . Gentlemen , this ease most not rest here . To treat it with negligence , would be criminal . It is a grave , a most important case . The just administration of theiaw , the freedom ofthe subject , and the _sacredness of human life , are in it involved . Gentlemen , advised by Mr Jones , we have resolved to bring the case of poor Dodson before a judge at the next assizes . We wish it to be understood , that we are actuated by no feeling of revenge towards Sharpe , but we think that justice , and the safety of society , imperatively demand the infliction of a severe penalty ( not the gallows ) npon the destroyer of human life .
To enable ns to bring the case before tbe assizes , some thirty or forty pounds will be needed ; we , therefore , call npon each branch of the Land Company to contribute its mite , and thus empower the hand of justice to chastise the _oatrager ofthe most sacred laws of civilised society . Poor Dodson's death hasdepriveda wifeandfamily of their natural protector . We propose that the surplus above the legal expenses shall be handed over to the widow . We feel that we have now said enough npon this painful subject . Let the subscriptions be commenced in each branch , and sent forthwith to tbe Land Office . No time must be lost , and let every contributor console himself with the reflection that he is casting his mite into a fund designed to forward the canse of justice , aod to pour the balm ef comfort on the lacerated hearts of the widow and orphans of a murdered frier . rL
_Chbistctbss Dotxb , Pump _M'Gbath , Thomas Clark , Corresponding Secretary . _Slkaj-ord , _Sbm . 1 , 1847 . —To the Editor of the Northern Star . —Sis , —The letter which appeared in the Stab of last week , from Boston , announcing that the members of the Land Company there had com * menced a subscription for the purpose of seeing jus * tice done to the widow of the late William Dodson , wa ? . read at the meeting ofthe Land Company at Sleaford , and gave very great satisfaction _^ We think they have set a noble example , and hope it wiU be followed by others , wbo ean lend a helping hand . The members of the Sleaford braneh passed a vote of thanks to their Boston friends . Sir , it is our wish , _through the columns of vour journal , to express our
grateful and heartfelt thanks for the handsome manner in whicb you bave taken up the cause ofour late much respected secretary . We also beg toreturn onr sincere thanks to the directors , for interesting themselves in sending Mr Ernest Jones to conduct the case , which he has nobly done , and that gratuitously—for wbich we retarn Mr Jones our sincere thanks , hoping be will persevere in the cause , and bring the man to justice , far the crime he is guilty of . The Sleaford men have done much to bring the case to its present bearing , and tbey are determined never to rest satisfied , until they obtain justice . They hope they will be supported . One
pennvrrom eaeh ofthe Land members , would realise considerably above £ 100 . The Sleaford men have already subscribed £ 12 , and are making still further subscriptions . Sir , we also wish to return our sincere thanks to Mr Jones for his speech , which he delivered after the decision , in the Market-place ; tbat speech , which did notlast an hour , has aroused hundreds from their apathy , and caused an inquiry into theCharterand Land Plan , that would astonish you . We have enrolled thirty new members , and many more are about to join . —Yours , in the cause of Human Redemption , Thb Members or the _SlbafohbBhakch .

TO THE MEMBERS OF THE NATIONAL LAND COMPANY . Friends , —The propriety of establishing a National Benefit Society has been frequently urged upon our attention , and a strong desire expressed that we should originate one , in-order to afford those of our friends who have a desire ot an opportunity of joining an institution under the auspices of the movement party , and established for the purpose of aiding the onward march of Democracy . With the desire of oar friends we cordially sympathise , and were it not that our time is fully and completely occupied in
attending to our present engagements , we would feel great pleasure in complying with their wisheB . We hare long been of opinion that the cause of the people wouldibe much served by . ' the establishment of such an association . At present there are thousands who join other societies , who would prefer becoming members of one composed of persons whose opinions harmonise with their own , and whose funds , instead of being placed at the disposal of their enemies , wonld be applied to benefit themselves , and the cause which they have at heart . We must , however , decline entering upon the organisation of such a body , but , at the same time , would recommend all who feel interested in the matter , to join the
NATIONAL CO-OPERATIVE BENEFIT SOCIETY , which has been some time in existence , and which was established for the purposes above enumerated . The actual management of it devolves upon its indefatigable ; founder , Mr Edmund Siallwood , a man in whose honour and probity , we have the greatest reliance—so , much confidence do we repose in him , that we have consented to become the . directors of the society—Mr Stallwood undertaking to do the work of secretary , our part of the business being to make
a periodical examination ofthe accounts , and other monetary transaction , which all parties may rely upon being done by us . The chief recommendations of this society are , that the subscriptions are liberal ; it ' s government democratic , and its funds will be deposited in the National Land and Labour Bank . We sincerely recommend this society to the consideration ofour friends . All communications on the subject to be addressed to the secretary , Mr Edmund Stallwood , 2 , Little Vale-place , Hammersmith , London . _CnmsiornEEDeTLE , Thomas Clark , Philip M'Grath .

The Chartist Landj^Hj*K??„ •. We Copy Fr...
THE CHARTIST LANDj _^ _Hj * _K ??„ _. We copy from the . London Journals the account of the _fejoioings that . took place on Monday this * week connected with the allocation of forty-five cottages , with tbeir accompanying allotments of tend , in _uJobcestersbire ,. by the Chartist Land Company ; We have ' agaih most earnestly to direct the attention _^> f onr readers to the consideration of this plan for the renovation ef British society , and the elevation of the conditien of the operatives _^ Eighty allotments , ofa sufficient quantity ef ground for the comfortable maintenanceofafamily _. _withanimproveddeseriptibn of dwellings along with them , have new been _| provided in little mote than a _** ear by the association referred to and if so much good has been effected in so short a time and with so limited a portion of society taking an ' interest in the undertaking , how much more g ood might there hot be effected if such a scheme was generally supported , and if a few years _nerseveranee were realised for the fulfilment of so desirable ¦
anobjeet . •/¦ . _n The writer ofth e report in the Times , from which we copy , expresses bis doubt of tbe capability ofthe settlers to pay a rent amounting to five per cent . on tbe outlay on their settlements , and also his fears of agricultural productions effected by spade labour competing with * the plough . With proper industry on the part ofthe settlers we have no doubt whatever on this subject . The cottages , which we described as we found tbem ; at Herringsgate , are , as we formerly noted ; of three apartments eaeb , substantially finished . This is a description of dwelling _gutte unknown to the ordinary riin efworkraen , but just such
dwellings as no family . should be without . _* _*** sum a house , and for two acres of land besides , in ahighly productiveconditic-a , the whole vent exacted , is between six and _Beven pounds per annum ; and ifthe oooupants , with ordinary health , be not able to pay that rent , we should like to know how they are ex pectcd to pay a higher rent for afar inferior sort of _duelling , as they now do ? In addition to this , although the land is laid offin patches of from two to four acres in the Chartist settlement for _eveiy mu . dent , it does hot follow that it must be cultivated by the spade and manual labour , when the plough and horsepower can be applied more profitably , as it will _, in most cases be . ' "'"'¦ ,: . ..... . of
It isone ofthe advantages in _^ he allotment ! the Land Company at Herringsgate , that they aieaolaid off / that one , two , three , or any nuniber of tbem , may he cultivated at the same time by the plough and horse-powerV The exploded . plan of numerous fences , with their cost , their waste of ground , and their har _bourofvermin—whksb has been found _tpJuriouB , and whioh _iBnowabahdened oh the b _^ _tcultivatedestates -has also been laid aside by tbe Land Company . And thus when the settlers can find more profitable employment than _thespade _, which , will often _^ _be the case , they have nothing to do but hirei _rajta plough and the harrow for the cultivation of their ground . When tbey cannot . find better employment , there is n _« / _... _octmn whatever , if they ohoese to exert
themselves , but by reserving as . they do , the _prohts ot tue landowner and the farmer , , they _*•« »«« b M _* loss to realise a far better income than can beobtained at the hand loom and aim-Jar J 1 I _requitad descriptions of mahnfaoture , which have been encroached enby machinery ; " and which , from the low paid and uncertain nature . of the employment , sink those who follow them in penury and ' _wwtchedness . What we principally advert to this subjeorior , in themeantime " , however , ' is to urge once more the necessity of a more extended- scheme of cottage settlements than can be carried ont by individual exertion . The experiments made by Mr' O Connorand those associated ivith him , prove beyond _question _howeftsilvasurnlas . _nartially employed , and ill
remunerated population , may be settled m their . native _countiy , ' even under the . monopoly price at whioh impelitioIawsmaintainthepri . ee of land . If the entail laws _wereabolished , and if the many million abres of rich uncultivated land which lie idle in our native ' eountry i were ' also taken possession of , as they should be at their present value ,, and placed at the disposal of the labouring population , that cannot obtain employment otherwise , the State , although it were hot to advance a farthing for the furtherance of theobjcot , would be grealy benefitted by the change _. The population that is at present kept partially idle , unable to support itself , and rather a burden than a benefit to the nation , would , by that means , be put in constant profitable employment . Ifthe settlers
were hand-loom weavers , or any other description of workmen that could not obtain labour the whole year round , whenever they were idle , they wonld employ themselves on ' their land , to equal advantage as at their trade . Every spadeful of earth which they turned up—every stone which they lifted—and every drain which they cut , would improve their ground , and leave thera so much richer than they were—so much more able to supply their wants with food and clothing—and so much more able to contribute to the wealth of aU around them and to the wealth and healthy action ofthe State . We appreciate to the fullest extent the excellent example set , and the benefits likely to be conferred by the Chartist Land Company , but under present
circumstances tbeir exertions are paralysed for want of legislative assistance ; What is wanted is a national scheme for the renovation ef the ' population in our over-crowded towns . The formation of settlements in proper localities for carrying on manufactures in the various handicrafts , combined with agriculture , would be a ready means of doing this . In illustration of our views on this subject , we may state tbat the members of theNational Land : Company are for the mestpart composed of manufacturicg workmen : The poverty of the members , and the high price of land , prevents them from forming their settlements within such a distance ofthe seats oi manufacture , as can enable them with advantage to apply the skill which they possess to partial
employment at Iheir . trade , and thus they are placea at an unnecessary disadvantage for the means of _paying their rent , and obtaining all that variety of the necessaries and comforts of life , which they cannot produce on their own land . By the improvement which we contend for , by the placing of the settlers within a reasonable distance of those manufacturing towns where their labour is in demand , the whole able bodied population in the country might be profitably employed the year round . During the periodically dull seasons that prevail in every department of manufactures almost , their land would be ready for their labour , and always yield a return
for the trouble bestowed on it . . The labour market would also be relieved by this means . The destitution would noUhehexist which compels the workman to take employment at any price , that he may preserve his existence and that of his family . Wages would be more steady , and manufactures more profitable to botb ' _master and man than they are : while , as we have formerly , stated ,, the . government itself and all under it would be benefitted by a change , which would transfer millionsirom aolass of partial pauperism into what they should , be , aud what they easily might be , the best remunerated and the most comfortable population on the globe . —Glasgow Post

Cork, Be. Mabk.Takb. Monday.—Up To Our M...
CORK , be . MABk . tAKB _. Monday . —Up to our market last week Uie arrivals of English wheat and malt coastwise were on the increase , and of fair average quality ; but those of all other articles of home produce were very small . The « . _eelpts from Ireland and Scotland were again limited ; but the imports from abroad wore on a rery extensive scale , viz .: —78 , 095 qrsof _wheaf 6 , 45 * do . of barley , 50 , 067 do . of oats _. 5 , 857 ditto of heans , 10 , < 53 do . of Indian corn , to . gcther with 77 , 582 barrels of flour , exclusive of fair aver _, aire supplies ef most other articles , if we except those _» f ¦¦¦ ¦ ¦
peas . Fresh up to-day a fair average quantity of wheat , _chieflr of the present year ' s growth and in ( rood condition , came to hand from Essex , Kent , and Cambridgeshire . By land carriage and sample the supply was small . The show of samples of both red and white was larger than for some weeks past ; nevertheless , it was by no means extensi « , even the time of year considered . Notwithstanding the attendance of both town arid country buyers was tolerabl y numerous , the demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce , _arising principally , from the Immense arrivals of foreign grain , was excessively heavy , at a decline in the quotations of Monday last of fully 4 s per quarter . At the conclusion of business a total clearance had not been effected .
A , very extensivesnpply of foreign wheat was again on offer . As the millers were not disposed to get into _stock at present , that article was very dull , and to effect sales fully 8 s per qr . less money was accepted by the importers . The actual business transacted was comparatively smalR Thesapply of English barley ; was . very small ; _that of foreign tolerahly good . Malting qualities produced late _rates ,. b » t grinding sorts were l » per qr . lower . Ih distil _, ling kinds no alteration . . _--.. - As the quantity of malt exceeded the wants ofthe trade , that article was very , dull , at a decline of quite 2 b per quarter . - . _- ... . We / were again heavily supplied with foreign oats . Selected samples moved off somewhat steadily , at fully last week ' s currencies , but the middling and heated sorts of foreign were quite fid per qr . cheaper . Beans moved off slowly , but we can notice no decline in value . ' . _' - ¦•• ' ¦'¦ . ''•'_"' . ' .

' LivBBroor ., Monday , Sep . 6 . —The arrivals of foreign grain and flour continue on a large scale . . With broken weather and an increased demand for bread-stuffs from the interior , prices of wheat and flour hare been well sustained throughout the week . In several instances , a small advance on both articles has been made . Western Canal flour has brought 25 s 6 d to 26 s per barrel . Indian corn and com meal have both found pretty ready sale for Ireland and for feeding purposes in this country , at full prices . Oats have yielded 2 d te 3 d per bushel . Barley , beans , and pease have commanded last week's rates , bnt they move off slowly .
CATTLE , Itc , Smith held , Sept . 6 . —The following arrivals of foreign stock took place in tbe port of london last week : — . FromWhence . Beasts . 6 hp . Lbs . Cal . Pigs . Boterdam 283 1 , 470 77 127 IS Hamburg 65 258 — 6 — Harlingen ; 232 634 43 78 10 Total 580 . 2 , 862 120 211 28 At the various outports , the imports owing to the nonarrival of several of the foreign steamers , have been but moderate , viz ., 3 , 231 head , in very middling condition ; yet the prices realised have been tolerable remunerative ones ; " For the time of year ihe supply of beasts on show pas unusually extensive , there being about 1 , 000 head mote in the market than at the corresponding day last year . Still , however the of
, as quality most ofthe droves-arising , chiefly from the shortness of keep in the pastures—was , comparatively speaking , inferior , the primest beef moved off steadily at prices about equal to those obtained oa Monday last ; but the middling and inferior kinds—of which a clearance was not effected—had a downward tendency . A large numher of the beasts came to hand from Barnetfair , which closed somewhat heavily . From tbe northern grazing districts we received about 2 , 000 short-horns ; from the eastern , westorn , and midland counties , COO Hereford ? , runts , Devons , and shorthorns ; from other parts ' of England , ' 500 of various breeds ; and from Scotland , 120 horned and polled Scot ; . Tho numbers of sheep were again considerably on the increase , but of very middling quality . The primest old downs moved off steadily , at fully last week ' s quotations . Otherwise the demand was by no means active , yet prices were mostly supported .

The Mormon Semsmesrs At Nauvoo; —The His...
The Mormon _SEmsMEsrs at Nauvoo _; —The history , of this singular sect is one ofthe most curious chapters in modern story . Only a year or two ago this superb city _contained 25 , 000 inhabitants its position is exceedingly fine and healthy . In its palmy daya every house was surrounded by a larae garden , which gave the limits of the city a magnificent circuit . Now , all the fences . are broken down . Th « _W ° _*> ntol f . _raace has done its deadly work _, l ho bands of fanatical , no doubt , but yet sincere , worshippers are dispersed or destroyed . About hve hundred spirit-broken creatures still wander like ghosts about the streets and . squares of their ' holy city , unable to live in and yet loth to leave it . The proud temple—commenced onlv in 1841—stands
there in the midst ofa city already in ruin * , _andsurlounded by an almost interminable _wilderneBS . Ibis magnificent structure , which was designed by a Mormon architect , and built by Mormon workmen , at an estimated cost of 800 , 000 dollars , is one of the finest buildings in the New World . Itis now on sale , and offered for 200 , 000 dollars . The devotees still continue to depart : the place will soon be entirely deserted . The fugitives mostly take the route of the wilderness , and the Rocky Mountains towards California ; and the latest account of their movements received in Europe was to the effect that they had taken possession of a portion of that territory , with the ultimate intention of founding a new and independent state .
