The very first dose afforded much relief , and ho has found them more serviceable than any other medicine he has taken . Ho always resorts to them on finding any symptoms of the complaint coming on , and they invariably relieve him . Tbe attacks hare been _muchlcss frequent since taking Parr ' s Pills , and he believes by continuing their use his complaint will entirely leave him . Dated April 20 tb , 1845 . From Mr . TV .

WRAY ' S BALSAMIC PILLS , a certain , safe , and thc most speedy remedy ever discovered for the permanentand effectual cure of strictures , seminal weakness , pains in the loins , affections of the kidneys , gravel , rkcumatism , lumbago , gonorrhoea , gleets , local debility , irritation of the bladder or urethra , and other diseases of the urinary passages . The unprecedented success that has attended the administration of these pills , since they were made public , has acquired for thera a salo more extensive than any other proprietary : medicine extant , and the circumstance of their entirely obviating tho necessity of having recourse to those disgusting , nauseous , and in many cases highly injurious medicines ( as copaiba , cubebs , & c . J _, has obtained for them a reputation unequalled in the annals of medicine . Prior to being advertised , these pills were employed ia private practice in upwards of 1 , 800 cases , many of them most inveterate—in many thousand cases since , and in no ono instanco known to fail , or to produce those unpleasant symptoms so often experienced while taking copaiba , and that class of medicines usually resorted to in these complaints . The proprietor pledges himself that not ono particle of copaiba , cither resin or balsam , cubebs , or any deleterious ingredient , enters tlieir composition , Copaiba nnd cubebs have long been the most commonly employed medicines in tho above complaints ; but , from the uncertainty in their effects , together with their utter inefScacy in many cases , aro fast declining in reputation ; and , from the unpleasant symptoms invariably produced from falsing copaiba , especially in tho early stage of thc complaint , many of the mo 3 t able modern practitioners condemn it as dangerous , and a medicine not to be depended upon . Many persons , after having suffered more from flio effects of the remedy than the virulence of the disease , and , after a patient but painful perseverance , have boen compelled to relinquish its use , the whole system having become more or less affected , and the disease as bad , if not worse , than at tho commencement . As regards cubebs , it is true that those violent effects are not experienced as while taking copaiba , but they seldom effect a cure , unless more activo medicines are administered . The Balsamic Pills aro free from any of the above objections ; they act specifically on the urinary passages : and , from their tonic properties , tend to strengthen the system- and improve tlie general health . They require neither confinement nor alteration of diet ( except abstinence feom stimulants , whoro ; considerable inflammation exists )) and , as experience has amply proved , they will effect a cure sooner than copaiba ( the dangerous results of which , in the inflammatory stages , are too well known to need comment ) , or any other medicine in present use , and may'bb justly considered the only safe and efficacious _nemedy in all stages o . f those disorders .

The Land plan is progressing iu the localit y in spite of all the opposition that tho " First principle army , " consisting of some two or three , can raiso against it . MIDDLETON . Glorious Revival of Chartism ix Lancashire . — The following is thc speech of William Dixon , delivered ' upon this auspicious occasion , referred to in Mr . O'Connor ' s letter : —
Mr . Dixon on coming forward to move the first resolution , said it was unnecessary for him to tell them that he perfectly coincided with every principle enunciated in tho resolution they had just hoard read . He was a Chartist , because he was convinced that justice would never bo dealt out to the _working man until he was in possession of his full and equal share of political power . Therefore was lie a Chartist . Eut when ho looked at tho vast assembly before him , he folfc persuaded that , like all other public meetings , it was composed of persons holding different opinions on different subjects , and likewise that they had been drawn together by various motives ; some , no doubt , had come from curiosity to see what sort of thing a Chartist - camp - meeting was , others had perhapt
come for the purpose of ridicule , and others for the moro Englishman-like purpose of hearing for themselves , and judging accordingly , and there might by some who had c « me for the base purpose of clutching a warm expression uttered in the heat and excitement of the moment , in order to report tho same to tho " powers that be , " to see if they could take any hold of it . However , they were there ; and he cared not what liad prompted them to come , They would now hear what Chartism really was . They would now bo convinced that it was not the "bugaboo " which the _prtts , the pulpit , nnd the bar had represented it . For those parties had painted Chartism in such horrid colours , that weak-minded old men , who had not heard for themselves , trembled ,
and old women fainted at the very name of it . What is Chartism ? It is the cause of the oppressed against tho oppressors . Whatis _. _Chartism ?—it is the cause of the many against the tyrannical few . What ia Chartism ?—it is the cause of right against might : in fact , to sum up the whole in a word , Chartism was the cause ot labour , or he would never have lifted hi 3 tonguo in its defence . But ho was thoroughly convinced that nothing short of thc People ' s Charter becoming the law of the land would rescue lihn and his class from tint awful state of dependence , poverty , aud destitution , to which tho present system had reduced them . Believing this , he felt called upon at all times to do all that lay in his power for the advancement of that cause . It was said by somo , "Why , what ' s tho use ? We have dono all wo can do , and we are no nearer than we were . " This was
a fallacy . For his part , ho saw no reason to despair , but every reason to go on with renewed energy and increased exertion ; for Chartism was in » prouder position this day _tVwn ever it was since the commencement of the agitation . Now , was it truo that they had dono all they could do ? In fact , comparatively speaking , they had done nothing . It was true they had attended meetings . It was truo that they had held up their hands for resolutions . It was truo that some of them had paid thcirpence _, and they had also sent men to Conferences . This they had done ; but they had neither acted up to thc resolutions they had agreed to , nor adopted thc plana laid down by their representatives in tho various Conferences that bad assembled to legislate for them , until now : and _.
thank God , the time had como when they wore beginning to work for themselves . Ho , therefore , Baw no reason that thoy Bhould faint by the way . In fact , those who counted the cast atthe commencement of the agitation were not deceived . They knew that in tho struggle they would havo much to contend with , many obstacles to overcome , amongst which were those gigantio evils , a corrupt press and an erroneous education . Had wc not been taught in the nursery and the school , that it was our place to bow with Bcrf-lilvO submission to our superiors V And the parson-, too , had done their share in the work of stultifying and bedarkoning tho intellect of mankind , and making them the easy prey of despots . The parsons - endeavoured to cram it -down their
throats , that it was essentially necessary that thc working classes should pine , and starve , here below _,, in order to fit them for bliss hereafter . Is it to be wondered at then , with such a combined _plialanx of evils to contend with , that we have made no more progress _^ than we have ? But , thank God , the day of delusion has gone by ! Aristocratic and priestly influenco is on thc wane . This is a sure and certain sign that _thejday of liberty ig dawning ; Let us , then , take advantage of the improved circumstances by which wc aro surrounded , and this day renew our fealty to each other ; and under tho broad canopy of heaven register our vows never to cease agitating until the sons of toil havo their fair _sliaro of tliat which their labour produced . He might be asked
what was their "fair share . " He had formed his own opinion on this matter ; nnd although ho was not much of a theologian , his theology told him that " they who would not work should not cat . " Alas ! those who worked the most under the present system eat the least ; whilst those who toiled not , were surrounded with plenty . Tho parsons had endeavoured to impress on their minds that they were made for toil alone—mere drudges to minister to the wants of the idlers : and in order to induce them to submit to this , they said it was "the . will , of God . " What blasphemy ! It was not the will of Heaven that one part , ot mankind should ride rough-shod over thc other , but that all should enjoy tho fruits of the earth and be happy . V But then , " say they , " don ' t you know tho curie , which says , , _'Bv tho sweat of thy brow thou _shalt eat bread V " Yes , they knew
that ; and knew also that that curse includes all men . It does not say that one portion shall sweat and another enjoy : the produce of that sweat * It is no curso to labour ,. but it is a grievous curso ' that so many should live without Rwcat _, and bv so doing , ; rob the toiler of that whicli the curse it « elf promised him-bread in return for his sweat . \ le ( Mr . Dixon ) , however , believed man to have a hkber ctatiny than that of a mere drudge . This was evi dentfrom las very formation , in which was combined physical energy and mental capability , by the exercise of which ho was enabled , by thc smallest amount of physical exertion , to get a fit supply of those _things wm . cn Ma physical wants required , or , in plant _ternis _, " a fair day ' s wage for a fair day ' s work " which , in his opinion , could not bo calculated bv _' n pounds , shillings , and pence standard . If it mciint anything , it meant that a M fair dav _' s _waro" _u- _« 0
plenty of beef , mutton , p ork , butter , cheese , milk _" eggs , bread , and every other article of food and clothing that was conducive to . health and long life- nnd a •• fair day ' s work " :. meant that ho should labour _f-r these tilings in such a way as to , be enabled to have time-for the cultivation _oLthoso great intellectual powers which God had given-him , in-order , that lie _ratghtbe enabled to fulfil his duties to society as a citizen , a freeman , and , a human being . ; It was for _such-wages and for , suck work that ho was a Chartist He knew that this ; waj . not thc parsons' versionof the subject . _; ; No ; tlicy , and . the upholders of the present system ,- . / wished to inculcate _^ _the-ld eahthat the _workraatfs kjt ; nraa to labour ,. and _labouronly _^ _aud-to im - _prcsstfns morp : _powerfully on _thauiind _« Wm _,

that they should omulato tho ant and . ths beo in t ! _ioi > industry , and _liltewise take a lesson from them of tha manner in which they dispose of the produce of _thois labour . Tlicy toil , it is true , during tiie summer _, and lay by a store for their winter's _uso . This is an important lesson for _tts . It tells us that wo too _,, in the days of our youth and the vigour of our manhood , ought to bo enabled to make a provision for tho winter of our days , nnd not to _ba loft , when travel * ing the downhill of life , ( o the tender mercies of tha jS ' _cw Poor Law bastilc . This wc can never do unless wo have a voice in the distribution of thc wealth which our labour produces , and this can only be ae » _complished by the Charter _becoming a legislative enactment . With these obstacles , in conjunction with theman-ilegvadiiigdoctrineof non-resistance to v / romr
, is it to be wondered at that the people hare _licen a little backward in learning their duly ? To tell hinj that it was the " will of Heaven" that he was to suffer patiently under the manifold aggressions mads upon his rights and perogatives by his fellow man , was to libel the Deity . All nature told him that such was a false doctrine . He envied not the man who had got it into his head that it was necessary for him to bc- reduced to a crust , in order to make him fit for future happiness . I Ic was rather of the opinion _thati a plentiful supply of _roiut beef and plum pudding was better calculated to enable a man to fullilhia duties to God and his neighbour than starvation . Was it not _mosstrous to imagine that human nature could be deprived of its feelings , and that a man
could go to his knees and pray , whilst tho convulsive S 3 b of a broken-hearted wife issued from one corner , and the erv of starving children for bread came from another ? ' How could such a man thank God for tha comforts which ho had received ?—when lie had received nothing but insult and starvation , and that not through thc " will of Heaven ; " for his Make ? had given him an undoubted right to exist , and tho means of existence from the soil of his fatherland . It was man alone who had deprived him , of those rights . To tc patient under such circumstances was indeed criminal . He might be asked from whence he got this doctrine ? He told ] them , from thc works of nature , which pointed up to nature ' s God . He found throughout the universe
of animated matter one universal law , namely , that of self-preservation , which compelled the inferior animals to protect themselves from aggression , anil if need be , to punish the aggressor . The ant was but a small insect , yet there was implanted within it a law which prompted it to protect its labour . Looh at the hen surrounded with her brood , how she caters for their food ; and when she lias found tho grain of corn , she calls them around her to partake of the fruits of her toil . But sliould an intruder infringe on the rights of that domestic circle , she will defend it with all thc energy of which her little svsteni is possessed . This sure ly is a lesson for tho fathers and husbands of England , who have allowed their domestic hearth to be robbed of its sweetest ornament , the cheering smiles of a happy and con . tented wife , surroundcl by her cleanly and healthy children . We have stood coldly and apathetically by , whilst the ruthless hand of the oppressor haa
dragged our wives and little ones into tne factory or tho loathsome mine , completely reversing the order of nature , making the wives and children toil , whilst the father and thc husband is an unwilling : idler mi a pauper , living upon the blood and vitals of those be loves . It is tunc that this system of wrong should have an end ; and ho hoped that that day wag the commencement of England ' s determination to be free . In order to do this , it was necessary for each and all to do their _sliare of the work . It was in vain for them to think that those gentlemen hy whom he was surrounded , those who liad Btood the heat of the battle , could of themselves accomplish liberty , Ko . The people must , do it themselves if ever it was done . Those gentlemen had comete tell them what was necessary for them to do , but if they neglected to do it , it would be themselves that would be to blame , and not those who had faithfully pointed out their duty to them .
The Operative Cotiojj Spkners And Selp-A...
The Operative _Cotiojj Spkners and _Selp-acik _^ Mule Workers . of Scotlaxd to tueir Employers . —Gentlemen , —It will not suvely be considered presumptive on ourpart in addressing you on the present occasion . Wo bad _considered , from the continued and increasing prosperity ofthe cotton trade , that you would before this Lave offered to share with us , the producers of wealth , a portion of the additional value given for the products of our industry , consequent upon such , a state of trade . Nay , we had even hoped , after the declaration of Sir Robert Peol on repealing thc duty on cotton , that suck repeal was ex . prcssl y conceded ibvtlio purpose of _benefitting the labouring class , and , considering that the duty in
many instances amounted to more than is given foe spinning , we were confiding enough to _suppose that generosity would have prompted you lo give us a portion of ihe abrogated tax . Considering also the _pre-» cnt depreciated prico of the raw material , with the advanced and advancing price in yams , without anv feeling being evinced on your part that wc should share in any of these advantages , has lead to the present appeal . Gentlemen , _—wchave no desiroto place ourselves in antagonism to our employers ; we can but regret that it is sometimes necessary . Let them but bejust to those whose labour euriclies ; them _» and not a murmur will escape our lips ; but when we see a desire on their part to absorb as much of the wealth which we nroduce as thev nossiblv can . what
else is to be expected than that we should meet , combine , and demand a portion ofthe " lion ' s _skare _. _,, It has been our lot in times of commercial depression to feel it in all its severity , by reduction following reduction in our wages , wlulo in . times of prosperity , unless demanded by the workmen , wo reap none of its advantages . In looking at the price of yarns in years when 3 id . pcrBhillingwas paid for spinning , wo find that they were no higher in some of those years than what they are at present—while the price in the raw material bears no comparative proportion to whatit then was . Looking at ; all these things , is it to be wondered at , that we should feel dissatisfied with oin present condition , and especially in contrasting it
with many other bodies of workmen ? The long and protracted hours of unmitigated toil which we havo to perform , in anaitificially heated and impure atmosphere , the rapid decay of our physical energies , and consequent premature old age , causing us te be put aside as useless lumber , at a period of lifo which to others is littlo more than their meridian , in order that youth and vigour may undergo the samo deteriorating process as those whom they supersede have dono . Considerations such , as these demand that something like an adequate compensation be given for the sacrifices made , but which weave satisfied is not the . case . Another consideration also induces us to make this appeal , namely , the scarcity which i 3 taking place among Piecers , owing to the increaslna
demand for them , and the facility that young persons havo oi getting into other branches of industry , equally , if not better remunerated , such scarcity necessarily tending to raise the wages of this class of workers ' , which , in many instances , is alrcadv the case . We are anxious and willing that they should bo well paid , that there may be some inducement for them to remain at their present occupation , as well aa from motives of humanity . Compare their earnings and their labour with that cf Power-loom Weavers , and they sink far beneath them in tho scale of comfort ; and unless our wages aro advanced , so as to enable us to _elevato them also , both master and operativemust ultimately suffer . Gentlemen , — Such of you as are possessed of _self-actins Mules ,
must be cognisant ofthe great variation which exists in the prices paid for this department of _soiiHiingvariations which it is much to be desired you your * pelves should rectify , not hy reducing the better paid to the standard of tile lower , but by elevating tke lower to the higher standard , or at least by placing all on a greater degree of equality , but that all should be ' clevatod above tlieir present position . Gentlemen , —Wc have heard you always profess that it was hurtful to your feelings to reduce wages , and that it would give you greater gratification to advance _tlicra , did thc state of trade permit it . Tiic conviction rests o : i our mind that you have . now tho opportunity of proving the sincerity of your , professions , if we arc at all to credit the reports of the state of trade and
markets , as given m the _publicjournals . Resolutions having been passed at laeetiugs hold in various spinning localities of Scotland , exprcssivo of tlieir opinion , that the present state of trade warranted tlicin of the propriety of soliciting their employers for ft further advance upon their wages , leaving it to a meeting of delegates from all thc different localities to settle- thc amount which we would ask . _Accoroiudy , a meeting of delegates , to the number of seventy , was held in the Trades' Hall , Paisley , on _Saturday the 9 th inst ., when it was agreed that wc soli cit our employers for an advance of a halfpenny on tho prices paid for hand-spinning at the time of receiving our last advance ; also that threepence per 1000 hanl ; 9 of an advance be solicited for _self-acthvj Mules ;—and
that it be requested that a distinct answer be returned to our memorial , on or before the 22 nd , inorder that the same may be reported to this meeting _, which stands adjourned till , the 23 rd of thc present month . We thus lay our request before you , in tho _fullcouSdencc that you will cheerfully concede tops so reasonable a demand , and that none of you will endeavour ; to evade it by saying that you will give _^ if any other precedes you . ' Lot Capital but _cherisu its parent , Labour , and a reciprocity , of feeling ao " interest must exist betwixt them , which every H _&' wisher to humanity must anxiously desire .
