HOUSE OF COMMONS . —TrjssDAT . The Speaker took the Chair to day at twelve o ' clock , when the swearing ia of Members was pro * ceeded with till shortly after two o ' clock , when the House was summoned by the Usaar of the Black Rod to the House of Peers , to hear her Majesty ' s Speech . The House re-assembled at 20 minutes to four o'clock , when the swearing in of Members was resumed . The SPEAKER eaid he had to inform the House that it had been reported to him by the Clerk , that , since the last session , the Clandestine Outlawry Act had expired . Sir G . GREY moved that a Bill to renew the Act be read a first time . —Agreed to . On the motion of the Hon . Baronet , tbe asual Sessional Orders were read and agreed to .
Sir E . SUGDEN gave notice that on the 2 ad of of September he would move for leave to bring in a Bill to provide for the better administration of justice iu the Appellate Jurisdiction of the House of Lords ; and on afuture day he would move for the appointment of a Committee to inquire into the expediency of suspending the laws relative to usury . Sir F . BLAKE rave notice that on Monday next he would move for leave to bring in a Bill to exempt Members of Parliament from the necessity of taking tho oaths of supremacy and abjuration as a qualification for taking their seats .
Mr . Wallace gave notice that on Monday next he would move that the usage of the late Parliament shall not be followed so far as related to Members presenting petitions . He wished that Members might be at liberty to state in the fullest manner the prayer of tbe petitions of the people , and that they . should not be gagged as thoy were during the last Session . Mr . Brothertox gave notice that on Monday next be would move that no now business be entered into after twelve o ' clock . —( Laughter . )
Mr . Roebuck , although he did not see the present Secrecary of State for Foreign Affiirs in his plice , wished to give notice that to-morrow he should put a question to him with respect to the relations existing between America and this country as regarded the case of Mr . M'Leod , aad inasmuch as that question would be \ nunte \ ligab \ e without some prefatory remarks , he hoped by the kind indulgence of the House , he would be permitted to make them . Mr . M . Phillips moved the address in answer to her Maj » s : y ' s speech , aad in doin < so alluded slightly ind in a congratulatory tono to the foreign policy of the country . He then enlarged Upon the 6 tate of our commercial relations , and contended that nnless we altered our import duties in some particulars ,
and more especially with respect to tho duties on -Ui , 'ar , we could not ho je to renew our treaty with the Brazils under favourable circumstances . In adverting to the Chrn Law * , he assured the House that 'ipon no previous occasion within hia recollection had th ? re existed suuh depression and misery as now prevailed throughout the manufacturing districtsdepression -whifh mipht be removed by an aheration of the Corn Laws , because thoso laws affected manu-•" acums and commerce in more waya than one . They tpnded to derange the currency by leading to tho exportation of gold , by which , as a necessary consequence , trade was completely paralysed . He was oi' opinion that tbe best mode of relieving the oi . s ' . ms of the manufacturing districts would be by
throwing down all obstack-s to the extension of the : nami acluring indnsly of tho country , and in s » loins ; , the laaded interests would find that thoy had i-nrfcrred upon themselves the most lasting benefits . The Hon . Member concluded by moving the address , which was , as usual , aa echo of tha speech . Mr . Du . vd . vs bhortiy seconded the address . Mr . S . \ Vortley then ro ? e to move an amendment to the address . Her Majesty ' s Ministers had , he > aid , appealed to the country in support of their measures , and he , undvr the peculiar circumstances attending hi ? return to that House , could scarcely be considered pre .-umptuous in thu 3 early presenting him-elf to their notice , giving , 83 ho did , by his very pre .-ence in the House an an .-wc-ron tho part of an important portion of tbe country to the appeal wVirh had been made to it bv the Government .
Concurring , as he did , in the views of Hon . Gendcaion on his side of tha House , and believing those ? iew 3 to be in accordance with the feelings of the ^ r « at majority , not only of his own constituents , but ¦ jf the counfry " at large , he feit himself called upon to ask whether it was meet that her Majesty ' s Minister 0 , under the ciroumFtanc ^ s ia which they were placed , should be entrusted with the future conduct of the affairs of the country , or whether they should be permitted to dictate tht answer of her Mnj-sty ' b -fpeech . Unf t er all the circumstances sarrounding ihe present Government , he thought it was the duty of the House to inform her MjJ -sty , before they a ? 5 U 2 Jed t ' ue responsibility of entering upon the business of the nation , that they had not conSdeneo iu her . VJajasty ' s Ministers . ( Ct . eerc ) The Hon . Genihrnttn corit-iUded by moving an amendment the sane as that ia the House of Lord 3 .
Lord BnvcB said that he repres nted a large seadou : own , and he had no hesitation in saying that ' ih constituents adopted to the fullest extent the sentiments embodied in tho amendment j'Jst moved by Iks Hod Frieud . ( Cheers . ) Unless tho decision ¦> f ino last Parliament , as to want of confidence in ihe present Government , wtre cancelled by the v ! ei ; ii ; on of this Parliament , it would not be con ? is : ent with ihe dignity of the House to canvass any d ' nthict measures brought forward by AJL-. isters placed in such a position . Tho Noble Lord conciiHrd a pointed speech again ? , the Government by seconding the amendment to the address .
Mr . Labouchere said he was at a loss to tinder-? tatid ihe policy of the Amendment which had been m'jvrf . I ; certainly declared a want of confidence in M . nister ? , but it gave no indication of the policy to wh ^ eh it wa 3 intended that it should lead . The Rirrht Hon . Gentleman defeadtd the conduct of the Oorernment , which had , he said , conducted the affiirs of the country iu a spirit of economy , and > vh . ch had succeeded in preserving the peace of Europe with sc .-. rce ! y the slightest interruption . Mr . D'Israeli supported tho Amendment , and sondonitied : he use which had been made by the present Govirr , m > -nt of her Maj .. sty's uame , and tho position in which they had placed her by their very ia ; t step , in bringing a speech from tho Throne with uo other view than that of laying the basis of a nascent opposition .
Commodore Napter enlegised the Governmeut ¦ and sypportfil the addres-s . Lord Polling-ton supported the amendment , and > a : d that he woald leave the Ministry in their antic'pated defeat to th « consolations which were indulged in by their journals—tka » , if no longer a Government , they would b ? , a : all events , a formidable opposition . This he admitted , for they were like tho > e eastern b * rba . rans who , when defeated by the Roman ? , vrere still formidable from the poisoned weapons wh . ch they Hung behind them .
Mr . BoKBrcK ran over the various sins committed by tho present Ministers towards tho people who hvip ' -aeodthemin p ^ wer , and contended that all their errors were attributable to their having walked too clos-ly iu the steps of the Tories . They had a ? ked the country " Do you like us \ " And the country had answered—there was no use disguising though he regretted the fact—the country had answerc ! " We do not . " Ho wished to be understood , when he said the country , that he only referred to the constituencies—and by those constituencies the Ministry were told that itB &ervice 8 were no longer required .
When the Hsn . Gentleman sat down , a cry of " Divide" arose , and the gallery was ordered to be cleared , but Mr . Mu . mz presented himself to the House , and said that although he thought the repeal of the O > rn Laws would produce a reduction © f wages , vet the people would not be Buff .-red to remain in their present state of starvation , and something must be done to give increased employment to tho labouring clasfcsi Mr . h ' WAET then rose , and moved the adjournment of the debate until 'Wednesday . S : r K . Peel said he acquiesced in the adjournment on the special groarst ! th ^ t the Speaker had been in the chair since iwelve o ' clock that day . Tne debate was accordingly adjourned until Wednesday .
Wednesday , A ugust 25 lh . Mr . T . Dc-xcombe presented 409 petitions from L-icester , and 19 from iNottinghaiu , against tho present state of the representation . The petitioners declared they wore working men , and considoi ^ d themselves slaves unless allowed to havo a voice ' in * the election of their representatives , and they earnenly besought the House io present an address to her Majesty , praying she would be graciously pleased : o dissolve the present Parliament . ( Great Laughter . ) Petitioners also prayed that the House would be pleased to order tho discharge of all political offenders . The Hon . Member also presented
a petition from twenty working men of Glasgow , the terms of which were not very flittering to that Hoass , which they represented as neither legally nor mentally fit to represent them , because it was elee ' . ed by a very small portion of the male classes of the community . This petition also concluded with i > prayer for another dissolution . Tne adjiurned debate on the address was resnmed by JIt . Lwart . who said he warmly concurred in its general spirit , and entered upon a lengthened justification of the principles of free trade , and of tho msasHre 3 founded upon those principles by her Majesty ' s Ministers . Captain Hamilton said the real point at issne in that debate was , whether or not the present Minis-

ters did or did not possess the confidence of that house . Any diEcussion upon the Corn Laws was totally foreign to this point , and he would therefore x efjatn from entering upon that topic , and confine k > mself to the simple declaration that he had no dv -ifidence whatever in her Majesty ' b present adrit > t -rs . ¦ .. ¦ " - ; ;¦ •'¦ kV . Ward , in supporting the address , took an oppot tumty of referring to the period when the minisU * rs were compelled to abandon the appropriation cla- i ai » d insiBted upon it that they should then have resided , as at that period no ministry conld be found bolo . enough to taka office upon the principles of incroasea expenditure , a diminution of the Irish registry , which he presumed would take place if the noble lord opposite ( Lord Stanley ) acceded to power , and tbe maintenance of that monstrous iterance , the Irish church .
Mr . M . SirrroN contended that the lots of the confidence of the country in the present ministry was to be attributed to the lung vista of broken promises which their administration pjesented . He should vote in favour of the amendment . Dr . Bowriho in the « ourse © f » long speech against the amendment , said that the Corn Laws were an enormous drawback upoo © nr commercial intercourse with other countries . He had biiaseli been the bearer of onauy messages from foreign , powers , proposing commercial relations , which were invariably refused , because the Ministry dared not to propose any alteration of the Cora L 1 W 8 .
Mr . P . M . Stewabt said he had a deep interest in the landed prosperity ; but , upon broad principles , he would advocate a liberal system of ewa mereial legislation . Mr . S . Cea wfobd and Mr . Cobdkn supported the address . The latter gentleman contended at great length that the aristocracy of the country were not taxed in anything like aproper ratio in proportion to the heaviness with which the burden fell upon the poor and labouring classes of the community . He also instated that the abrogation of the Corn LawB would create an increased demand for manufactures , and of course for labour , to that instead of low wages tha result would be cheap bread and increased wages . In faot , wages depended not on cheap or dear bread , but simply upon the supply and demand for labour . He likewise adverted to the meeting of dissenting clergymen in Manchester , and iaid that tho question of the abolition of the Corn
Laws , having been once taken up by the pastors of the community , must be considered , a . i was said by the Noble Lord opposite ( Lord Stanley ) in reference to the SJave Trade , to be virtually carried . Mr . Bailey denied that the distress prevailed through the manufacturing districts was in any way attributable to the Coru Laws . Oa the contrary , during tho Ia 3 t twenty years the manufactures of the country had been trebled , while tho distress of the operatives had been continuall y on the increase and while the manufacturers wer < vrealising fortunes the operatives were starving , a clear proof that the interests of these parties were not identical ; and in his opiuion , though the repeal of the Corn Laws might be advantageous to tho latter , a great deal of the distress was occasioned by tho manufacturers theaisolves , who reversed the order of nature by contracting with union workhouses and using every means to procure infant labour , and thus , throw ahilt labour out of employment .
Mr . Brotherton defended the manufacturers , and siid if the Manufactures were destroyed , the agriculturists woul-1 be irretrievably injured . Mr . H . Grattan supported tho address . Lord WonsLty said that although he disapproved of the proposal of tho government as respected the com laws , yet as the right hon . bart . ( Sir K . Peel ) intended to make some alterations , of the nature ot which he -was not aware , and as upon most other topics ho dillored from tho right hon . bare , while he ad ; ntrtd the general policy of tho present ministers , he thought himself justified in supporting thorn ia prefereiii e * . o the rij , ht hon . baronet . Mr . Hastib si . 'pnorted tho address .
Mr . Hinhlkv , » t twelve o ' clock , moved the adjournment of ihe debate until Thursday , which was a 'reed to .

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NOUTHEUN STAB . Sin , —AI ' ow me through the columns of your widely circulaUri Jiurnal , to say a few words in answer to some of iha must barefaced and unfounded statements over put forth by a public character , nnd which havo appeared in the DuUin Register of August 21 st . I shall first give the estiacUfrom Mr . OConnell ' s speeches , as they appuar in that paper . The first is at a " Great Repeal Meetiug in Drogheda . ' Mr . O'Connell eays" I will toll you something of the conduct of the Chartists iu England during the late election . I will
toll yuu how they acted in Carlisle . Mr . Howard , a man cf ancient faintly , is one of the . members , and Mr . Marshall is the other member . What did the Chartists Io at the late election ' Did thc-y join tho Reformers ? Xo , they joined the brother of that swiveiled-eyed fallow who was Secretary fur Ireland , and who let uo man get into ofllcce while he was in Ireland , but an Orangeman . There is tho man whose brother thfl Chartists support against the Reformers . During tho election ono of them killed a man , ar . d waa transported fifteen years . Ill tar , hear . ) Jt was not liltrty or Universal Suffrage they were supporting . They were doing tho TtvuTiO—they were suuportni ^ Torvism there . "
The next extract is from a speech of Mr . O'Connell ' s delivtml at the " Loyal National Repeal Association , " held nt the Corn Exchange . It is as fjIIoTs : — ' Their conduct at the late election was atrocions—Mr . OHiggina conies forward on their behalf , and would fain Tecoumiend them to the favuur and friendship of Irishmen . But does he fancy we cm forget the conduct and character of the party he upholds ? What was thii course pursued by the Chartists at Ciiriislo during the late election ? Mr . Howard , a . high-minded and pntriotic gentlemen , n Itonnu Catholic Liberal Reformer , and Mr . Marshall , of Leeds , were tho candidates on the popular side ; but tho chivalrous Chartists , instead of allowing thess gentlemen to get ttio Votes of the electors , for they ( the Chartists ) bad
bnt few vutes anting themselves , turn tbeir backs traitorously on Iha frienda of liberty , the Q'leen , and the ptople , use e ? ery unholy iufluenc ; that could bo devised to deter the Liberal electors from supporting them , and gave whaievor votes wero at their disposal to to Surgfant G-ulburn , brother to that immaculate gentleman , who had been Chancellor of the Exchequer to Peel , aad who actually sent in , hi 3 resignation rather than give a vote in favour of Citholic Emancipation . Yes ! this was the man of tha Chartist ' s choice , he whom they enshrined in their heart of hearts , and in forwarding whose interfsts they , not conJent with having given him their votes , actually killed a , man in a despcratoi rush made against the liberal party . " I have been thus particular in making
these extracts from the Dublin Register , lest it might be said that I had dealt unfairly by Mr . O Conneil . In answer to those assertions of Mr . O'Connell'a , I have to state , that thc-y are nothing but a tissue of the grossest nnd most barefaced falsehoods ever uttered by a public man . Mr . O'Connell has longstriveu to keep up a division between the English and Irish working men , evidently for tho purpose of carrying on his horrible and wicked delusions ; but he may depend upon it , that tfce spell is about to be broken , aad that he will not be .-iblo much longer , even with the aid of the Catholic clergy , to keep the people of Ireland in a . « fate of thraldom . But to come more immediately to the above extracts . As Secretary to the Chartist
Election committee , I roost solemnly declare , that we took no part whatever with either the Whig or the Tory party ; and that the few Chartist voters , so far from giving their votes to Serjeant Goulbnrn , did not vote at all , though urgently requested to do so by both parties . The Chartist Election Committee canvassed for another gentleman , of much more liberal principles than either the Whiss or the Tory ; and when they found there was lie chance of sutleeeding with their candidate , they made an open declaration to that effect , and left those who had promised them support to act as they thought proper : and the result was , as already stated , that scarcely any of the Chartists voted at alL
These are facts which scores cm bear testimony to ; and bow Mr . O'Connell could state such gross and glaring falsehoods I know not , except for the purpose of keeping up the delusion which he has so long practised on his poor and unfortunate countrymen . All the sensible aud honest portion of the Chartists here despised both parties ; nor did they lend themselvesas somo of tho Catholics did—to the support of a faction who had imprisoned some of their best friends for bo crime at all , bnt merely for advocating those principles -which alone -win secure good nnrt honest government , both to England and Ireland . Mr . O'Connell wishes to make it appear that the Chartists killed a man in an attaok which they made on the Liberal candidates . Nothing could be rpore untrue than thia statement , for tbe facts are US follows ; and I appeal to any man , of whatever party , to contradict what I am about to state .
After the nomination , a large crowd of people , made up of all parties , followed the Liberal candidates to the &k < ffde-hou 8 e Hotel , hooting and throwing bits of sticks andXstones . After Mr . Howard and his party had entered the hotel , Mr . Grahame , the Superintendent of P-j ] i « k deemed it necessary to order his men to drive back fee people . They did so ; the people flying in all directions as fast as they could get away . When the late Thomas Jardine , one of the officers , rushed among the people , striking in all directions , paying no regard to age or sex , when ho was struck a blow by some one ; he fell down , and it | is said died next morning in consequence . These are the simple facts or the case . I now leave your readers to judge bow far this mountebank , for he has really become little better , ia to be credited , aud in what way be ought to be treated by a people whom he has thus basely belied and misrepresented . I hope the day is not far distant wben the good-hearted Irish people will see through his juggling and join the Ensliah Chartists in their call for universal freedom .
I remain , Sir , Your obedient servant , Henry Bowman 22 , Unjo 1 -atret , Carl ' alo .

Bradford Markets , August 26 th . — Wool—There is no new featiiro in this depanment . We have stil ! to record & fair amount of business ip . the shalty sorts of combing Wool at steady prices ; but Down sorts , aud tho higher qualities of English growth , are still dull sale . The sa 1 e 3 of Colonial Wools in London are proceeding very satisfactorily to the importers ; and notwithstanding the unprecedented amount in this seriofl of sales , prices are fully maintained . Yarn—Tha demand for yarns is certainly better , and we would hope , with the present small production , and the limited stocks ou hand , that tho spinners will find it their interest to extend their operations . Piece— Our market for the present going articles , 6 iich as Orleans , Saxonite , and Figures , has been rather animated , and a fair amount of goods changed hands . Prices very firm .
IIUDDKBSFIELD Cl . OTH MARKET , AUGUST 21 tH . — Tho business donn here to-day , appeared anything bat brisk . The Piece Hall was dull , and but little doing in the fancy goods ; yet strange to say a great quantity of goods seem to change hand 3 . The trade appears mystified and incomprehensible . . Wools , & . c . keep up in price as ' usual . 4 Leeds Ciath Markets . —Thero has not been any large share of business done at eithor of the Cloth Halls , on Saturday and Tuesday last , bnt this , it
is supposed , docs not form any criterion of the amount of business done in the town . Most of the goods are now taken direct from the manufacturer to tho warehouses , without coming near the Cloth Halls ; 90 that , whilst stocks arc gradually getting less , as tho better portion finds purchasers , thero is no corresponding increase , and the demand at the Cloth Halls , consequently , docs not adequately show tho real ttate of trade . Necessity compels the manufacturers to fiud the readiest markets , even at a reduced figure .
IhciiJuo > 'D , August 21 st . —We had a tolerable supply oi' Grain in our market to-day ; the sale was heavy . There were a few samples of Now Oats . Wheat sold from 9 s . 6 d . to 11 s . 6 d . ; Oats , 3 i . to 4 s . ; New Oa ' s , 3 i . 6 d . to 33 . 9 d . ; Barley , 4 a . 3 d . to 4 s . 6 d . ; Beans , 5 s , to 6 s . per bushel . Newcastle Corn Market , August 21 . —The weather has much improved here , aud during the week , with the exception of an occasional shower , it has been remarkably fine , and although wo had bat a small supply of Wheat at market this morning , our millers snowed little disposition to purchase ,
and the trade rulod dull at a decline of Is . to 2 s . per qr . In bonded nothing doing . Rye maintains its value . Barley , Beans , and Peas , ate without change . The demand for Malt is improving . For the season of the year , we had a large supply of Oats this morning , and the sale was dull at a decline of Is . per qr . A sample © f new appeared of fair quality , but in very indifferent condition , which sold at 28 s . per qr . We hxve fair arrivals of Flour this week , and up to this day 57 s . has-been got for households ; but as our millers determined on reducing their price next week 2 i . per sack , we alter bur quotations to 563 ., at which we anticipate a fair sale .
Lit'EbPJOL Cattlk Market , Monday , Aug . 23 . —The supply of stock to-day has been very large , and the quality in proportion to the quantity middling good . The market was tolerably well attended by buyers and dealers , but sales w « re rather flat ; tho * first quality realised about the same prices as last week , but the middling and ordinary qualities were on the decline . The first quality Beef may bo quoted at 6 . W ., varying from that down to 5 J . per Id . Good Wether Mutton at fully 6 jd . to 7 d ., and Lamb from 5 Jd . to 6 j . d per lb ., sinking the offal . The market , upon the whole , may be considered a heavy one , as thero were a great number of Cattle , as well as Sheep and Lambs left unsold at tho close . Number of'Cattle at market : —Beasts , 1 , 336 ; Sheep and Lambs , 7 , 458 .
Liverpool Corn Market , Monday , Aug . 23 . — Stifle this day se ' nnighfc we havo had a fair supply of Oats and Oatmeal from Ireland , but of other articles of the tratfe , either thence or coastwise , the arrival are pmall . On Friday , however , the duty on Canadian Wheat and Flour receded to the lowest point , 6 d . per quarter and 3 £ d . per barrel , and the stocks of these articles previously in bond were brought upon the free market ; this , ia conjunction with several days'fine weather , had tho effect of depressing our prices ; Free Wheat was sold at 4 d . to 6 d . per bushel , Flour at fully 2 a . per barrel below our last quotations ; both Wheat and Flour in bond were also cheaper—the former 3 d . per bushel , and the
latter Is . por barrel . Oats and Oatmeal participated in the decline io the extent of 3 d . per bushel , and 2 s . per load respectively . Barley , Beans , and Peas , unaltered in value . Several cargoes of Egyptian Beans in bond have changed bands at 30 s . per 480 lbs . 5 ALFORD Cattle Market , Wednesday , August 25 , —Although there waa rather a better show of beasts to-day , yet good beef could not be bought for lass money than it was last week , and all prime qualities were readily 6 old . Of sheep , too , the supply was fully an average , yet the same remarks apply to mutton aa to Boof , and prices did not vary from those of last market-day . Of lambs the supply was fair , chiefly from Yorkshire and Ireland , especially from the hitter , and which found buyers at last week ' s rates . A few sheep and Jambs unsold .

Sib , —I have just been looking ' over the columns of the Nottingham Review of last Frio'ay ' a date , in which I find that the Nottingham Board of Guardians f ?> bave had their weekly gathering , as per en iton , and til * following Is part and parcel of the dotogn of tbe said philanthropists : —* ¦ .
? ' pauper lists . " Mr . Soars referred the board to s f&T of panpers published in 1811 , and inquired whether Bate of persona receiving parochial relief weekly eonld ! 00 C again be printed and hung up In conspicuotu pteoes , ur h » thought information might be obtained in con ? e ( p * efice from the rate payers , of imposition , if such were practised . " Mr . Barnett produced the quarterly lists , ready prepared for publication ; and , if necessary , the board might order one weekly . " Mr . Williams inquired whether miry Instances bad occurred of rate payers coming forward and detecting imposition ? " Mr . Barnett replied , Chat he eonld scarcely recollect an instance . The quarterly list bangs up at the workhouse-door , two or three weeks after lfcls published . "
Now , Sir , it appears tint Mr . Sous feels somewhat sore at the paupers not having their names printed and exposed to public gaza "in conspictteus places , " to avoid , as ho alleges , the practice of " imposition . " It appears that the quarterly list had been prepared for publication , and the board mrght , if necessary , order one -weekly , yet it is still affirmed that scarcely an in * Manoe of imposition could be recoUeeted . Then what does the thing amount to ? Why , manifestly to this . The indigent have been plundered of their jast inheritance ( a subsistence from the soil ) by our modern Neroea , the Whigs , because my Lord Brougham dreamed that those " insatiable wild beasts , " the poor , would eat up the estates of the rich , and that he himself would ultimately become a Westmoreland pauper , " for which he had b » zest , though he felt no reluctance to be quartered 00 th « parish of the United Kingdom .
WeH , the poor have been robbed of their Divine legacy , and left entirely ta the tender wsrcie » of the Devil-Kings and their imps ; bnt this will not suffice the s ^ ueezo-gnts—they must publish the names of tho needy recipients of paroshial relief " in conspicuous places j" not to detect " imposition , " though that i * the ostensible object , but in reality to shame the poor dependants , and indues them to discontinue their calls for the weekly pittance . But I would advise every applicant to present a more bold front to their Guardians than they have hitherto done , and let the petty tyrants know that they are not ashamed to receive the fraction of their due , though they may blush wliile they think , that in a Christian country and in a land of Bibles the right of the poor has been taken away , and that such spoliation is the -work of a " liberal" government , who . lavishes the hard-earnings of the people upon titlod indolence .
Mr . Soars and his coadjutors ought to know that there is a sore , a very old and galling sore , in the body politic , which , though not noticed by them , is nevertheless noticed by others , many instances of whieh are recollected , but which will , ere long , be healed by the applieation of that severeign remedy , tho Charter , when such proud-flesh as theywill speedily disappear . We have paupers of " noble extraction" who are undisguised " impostors ; " these eat up our estates , yen , and tho clothes from cur backs , and " in conspicuous places " their names are and shall continue to be posted , until the sore is healed . Then , Mr . Soars , adieu to your ura £ U Yours , truly , Wm . Rider . Leeds , August 25 th , 1841 .
