EBXOHXiBV . Slavery at Wilsdbn . —On Monday week , a striking case of barbarity to an English slave occurred at V »* i \* den , wbroh , if not attrat * d opoa the be » t authority , could scarcel | be believed even nmongst tbe slave- wnera of the West Indies . A boy , named John PickUs , about thirteen years of age , belonging to p oor and respectable parents , applied at the factory of Mr . Sutcliffe , of VTilsden Mill , for work . Mr . Sutcliffe , according to one . of the rulen of the white slave trade , sent to a neighbouring doctor fora certiiicite to prove his qualification , by age , to comraence working full time in the l '» ctory . The doctor , hvriag some doubts of the boy ' ti age , wished te examine his mouth , which he
bad no sooner don ** , than he pretended that two of bis teeth required drawing ; and the savage actuall y pulled out hiii instruments , and extracted two good souud teeth from tbe poor boy ' s month . W > under-« tand that the object of this inhuman conduct was to give the boy the appearance of having oa * c * ome of hi * teeth , and thus to ' prove him ot an age sufficient to cominenc * full-time factory labour . It might appear that the efforts of the kind-hearted Christian public , in nbolinhiag slavery in th * West Indies , has had the t-Sect nf drawing it into thin pare of the world , and we mo ^ t earnestl y again implore tbeir powerful aa » istaace in procuring another grant if twrmy millions for tbe emancipation of the more unfortusate white slaves of their own country .

Th « L » ed » m ^ etinr was fix- ^ lor stivea e ' clock ; but the Wcrltiag Men ' a Association did not appear on the grou » d till aearly half-past eight , at which time an excellent band an . nooiicei its approack .

As the hoar was late , and Me&il Jonathan JJumow , of QueenAead , and William AHhtoB , of Barnsley , the teiegates » PDoiBt « d to agitate the ^ West lUfliog , aai wvfcral other ipMken , were ready to « idre »» theDieftiug , he would cornea * him « if by rtatia <( ibat they were called together for the purpose of raisiag a Naticnai Difcuce Fund , to protect the member , of th » Convention from uersecHtion in the discharge of their duties . He would now call on Mr . George White to propese ike firm ragclnfJoc . r
: Mr .

Tha tb * y were boand to da ; for the delegate * were their r » i / resentaQve » , aud tbey conld not , with common j no tice , abandon men who had beea throwu into prison for their cause . Thi * Meeting tf aa also called to prove to thftir tyrants that ifcey would not aubmit to be tyranniied o * er any longer—aa , nor suffer their friends to be tyrannised over any jdore than tii ' mwlvM . ( Cheer ,.. ) They » net have seen by the newspaper * that several of their most staunch advocates , wha had fearlessl y advocated their right *
oad hbertieg , ha ^ i been seized upon b y the hum bag Whig Government , " who availed tbeuuelved of every * n eakiHg subterfuge the law allowed thenf to perse cute the friends of the popnlar ;« fiwe . He doubted net that evtry working ma «> pftsent who was possessed of feeling , would do hfe best to rescue the champions of the people from the dungeons to which ttieir Whig opprttwors had confined"them . ( Heat , hear . The Whigs were wors * than the Toriea ! The Tories , it wa « true , delighted in the cooanitsian of all sorts *> f robbery and * rong , bnt the Whigs did the name , and were the most eonsuir . mste hypocrites uuder the sun into the bargain . ( Loud cheers and laughter . ) They ( th « people ) had elected men who were their long-tried Irieud .-i—who tad been lately
sitting at London , a&d subsequentl y at Birmingham » 3 d who , he thanked God , w « uld , on tbe 1 st of July atcaiu sit there —( great cheericgj— to say to a domiueering arwtocrftcy that the people would no longef submit to bf robbed and fleeced b y a merciless oligarchy . Now some of thes ^ men were thrown into prison for saying no more thau he bad himself said that evwing . ( Shame , ahamo . ) Would that meeting basely cesert men who , at tb * request of the people themselves , were striving to obtain for . them more food , inora clothing , more fuel , more comiort , more domestic ea *> e and happine s * thnn had tver as yet fallen to their lot—wh * were exerting themselves in order that les * miser * .
[ eta ton , less pnvatioa « f every cescriptioB should be inflicted upon tliem ? (• ' Never , never . " ) Were they not , on the contrary , bound to support those men to the last drop of their blood ? ( Great cheeN i »» f , and cries of "So we will , lad ! " ) Let them reflect on the horror of being piungwd into a dungeon—of being separated from wife , child , and tbe joys of their domestic hearth ; and if they had a xpark of Christian feelk g ; they would subscribe a trifle in defence of those wno had suflered xhk through their anxiety to serve the good cause , eGreat cheering . ) If that great meeting would only s » ub * cnbe n peany each , it would amount to ai inim ^ a se sum ; for a great may y could do much ior
the ie * m this lcstaace , when the few could do nothing for the many . (*« That ' * true , Jad . ") On themj-elves it would depeud whether they ahutild be at one * aud for ever emancipated from the galliae yoke ot their feudal tyrants , or whether they weull submit to be hucabuggod all their lives—they , and their children after tnem .
