A declaration was got i up on Monday , the 3 rd , by all the other manufacturers , stating there was no cause whatever for Mr Jeffery ' s reduction , and would do all in their power to prevent it .

MARYLEBONE " VESTRY MEETING . The Chartist Demonsiraiioh . —Addhess to ebb Queen Saturday , at a very fully attended meefevag of the vestry of St Marylobone , tiie Rev . Dr . Spryin the chair . After a vote of thanks to toe-magistrates for their conduct oaths lGth , Mr Stafford thought the time had now awwed when some notice should be taken of the very e&cel . lent and tlftergetic measures teken to provide fortthe peace of the metropolis by ber Majesty's gofernnient . [ A cry of' No , no , ' burst from every part 8 f the vestry . ] ' He ( Mr . Stanford ) , was perfectlyasto ^ mr
nished to hear such a response from a bony which he believed to i > s the advocates of lojaUy and order . ( Oh , oh ) At all events , ha had prepared a resolution , and if he stood alone he would bring it before the vestry . i ( Ob , oh , and confusion . ) Ho begged to move the following : — * That : this vestry cannot bnt express their warm approval of the wise andenergetio means taken by her Majesty ' s government for the preservation of order en' Monday last , and'beg to congratulate her Majesty ' s government w the happy result of their very judicieus , and at t&e sam 8 time temperate arrangements . ' ( Loud expressions of dissent . ) ¦ . ¦¦
The motion , not finding a seconder , fell to the ground . Mr Jobn Williams , M . P ., said , had Mr Stanford ' s motion been confined to an address to the sovereign , he would , have supported it . He would move : — ' That a dutiful address be presented to her Majesty the Queen , assuring her Majesty that the loyjil determination desplayed by the metropolis on Monday last will ever be exhibited by every class of the inhaWtants of this pavish , on all « c « aeion 9 where the dignity of her Majesty ' s crown or the tranquillity of the country may beassailed . ' Mr J . Bell seconded the resolution . Mr Sobew thought that if the vestry passed such a resolution , it would stamp the proceedings of last Monday / as an attempt to dethrone the Queen , and to subvert _ all the institutions of the countryfin assumption which he utterly repudiated and denied .
Mr SiiTF . vs must express his astonishment at the declarations of MrSoden , He feared lie oould not have read in the newspapers the speeches of Mr Wafherwoman Cuffay —( laughter )—and the other anarchists , who declared that they , wore even prepared to go the length of committing murder . After somo discussion , during which more abase was given to the Chartists by Sir W . Stirling , MrJ . Williams , M . P ., with great warmth , said : Iriao to order . I beg to call the hon . baronet to order . I will not Bit down quietly and hear the Chartists as a body , and the working men t . f England , of which that body is composed , held up to scorn SB thimp , rogues , and assassins . I belong myself to the working classee , and I have the pleasure of being known to , and to know myself , thousands of Chartists , who , I will undertake to say , are as loyal to the sovereign as the hon . baronet . I agree with some of the points of the Chavts * myself , and I will defy him to say that 1 am not as loyal as he is .
Sir J . Hamilton—I beg to suggest to my hon . friend Sir Walter Stirling , that he should withdraw the expressions he has made use of towards any body of men . ( Loud cries of hear . ) Sir W « Stirling could do no such thing , as his conviction was that the Chartists . who caused the excited state of the metropolis on Monday last were a « - cesiories before the fact to afisat ^ sinntivn , murder , and robbsry . ( Ob , oft ; order , order ; and great confusion . ) fie believed they had no legitimate object in view , no real grievances to redress ; but it was a plan to upset government and all peace and order , that they might have no government at all , and that they mi ^ hfc make the consternation then proceedings created the opportunity for robbery , plunder , and excesses of the very worst description . ( The confusion here became so general that no more of Sir Walter Stirling ' s observations could be heard .
Mr J . Williams , M . P ., in reply said , as one of tho working clas-e . " , ha was well aware that neither ho nor the class to which he belonged , had or coutd expect to have any sympathy from' the aristocracy . If he wanted any proof , he need only refer to the Gagging Bill of the government , upon whieh ha had divided against the government on every , division during : the previous Dight . He again repelled the unjust attack which had been made by Sir Walter Stirling c-n the Chartrsts as a body , and he could assure him and the vestry , that there were thousands of Chartists who were actuated by the strongest feelings of loyalty . He hoped the . question would pass unanimously .
The Rev . Chairman here put the motion , and although there wero several members who did not hold , up their hands in its favour , none voted against it , and it was declared to be carried unanimously .

THE GAGGING BILL , To tho Honourable the House of Commons of Great Britain and Ireland , in Parliament assembled , the petition of a public meeting held at Farrlngdon Hall , In the city of London , on the 11 th of April , 1818 , HUMBLY BHEWETH , That , although your petitioners have long sinco lost a ! l faith in the tfficxcy of petitioning , as a mean 6 of inducing your honourable house to restore to them and the people genorally , their social' anil political rights , now usurped by the landed and monied aristocracies , and which usurpation your honourablo house , forgetting your duties as representatives of tho common people of these countries , has flagrantly upheld , your petitioners , nevertheless , deem it their duty to protest , in determined language , against the attempt now being nude fey your honourable houue to augment tho wrongs under which tho people suffer , curse , and groan . Your petitioners particularly allude to that monstrous and libertieidal bill introduced by Sir G . Grey .
That bill jonr petitioners regard with alarm , indication , and contempt . With alarm , becauso of its uneon . stitutional and oppressive character ; with indignation , becauso of its tjrannicnl tendency to suppress public opinion , and to destroy tho right of public meetings ; and with contempt because your honourable house vainly contemplates thereby to perpetuate the evils' of mis * gov ; rrnnr nt . Your honourablo house has been told that tho bill referred to is intended for tho bettor protection of the Crown and government ; your petitionera respectfully suggest that its tendency will bo to destroy both , and they humbly remind tha ministers nn < 1 jour honourable houso of a fact which seems to hate bten forgotten , that on the continent the moat dwpotio governments havo been overthrown , not for attempting , like your honour , able houBe , to curtail tha lihertiea e . ( tde people , but for the suicidal poliey of refusing to extend those liberties .
That it is tho opinion of your petitioners that the conduct of tho ministers in introducing this libertioUal aod suicidal bill , merits the severest punishment sanctioned by the constitution and custom of tho country ; your petitioners , therefore , request jour honourable Ik use to nject this infamous bill , » nd to take such measures as are required for the impeachment of the ministtrs , and your petitioners , as in duty bound , will ever pray .

Cuihun Club .-On Sunday evening last a reeeting of this trnly democratic club was held at the ' Green Man . * Berwick-street , Mr Edwaifd Glass ( an English gentleman ) in the chair . The speech of Mr W . S . O ' Brien against the Whig Gagg ' . na ; Bill was read from the Northern Stab , and the full and able report of that gentleman's speech in that journal gave universal satisfaction . There was scarcely a person present who had not a Stab in his hand to light him to freedom ' s shores . —The Chairman , on opening the business of the evening , said that it was the bounden daty of all Irishmen to rally round those patriots who were waiting to bet tried . They had opened a subscription list in . that room for the purpose of assisting those gentlemen
in their defence aeaingt the prosecution of the Algerine Whigs . ( Cheers . ) The gagging bill would have no terrors . He hoped the time was not tar distant when the sovereignty of the people would triumph all over the world . ( Cheers . }~ Mr J . Ringrose ( an old veteran ia the cause of Ireland s nationality , and over whose brow nearly eighty summers " have passed ) next addressed the meeting and read an extract from the Jablkt , show , ing the patriotism th ? t exi .-ted in Italy , and said the same feeling animated his countrymen . They would send over to-morrow five pounds t . i tho defence fund . They must show the dastardly Whksthat they , the Irish people , were not to be daunted by their anti-English prosecutions .
Mr R . Hussey then rose , and moved the following resolution : — ' That we , the members of the' parran ' Confederate Club , of the Irish Confederation in London , view with indignation and disgust , the treacherous and hostile conduct of T , C . Anstey , Esq ., M . P ., forYmigbail , asexhibited by certain language reported to have been employed by him in respect to the Whip Gagging Bill , and to the exterminating quarter acre elaiiHfi . We , 'therefore , consider him unworthy the confidence of any party oi'Iashm- nespecially the members of the Confederation—and we caU on the council of that body to expel him from the Association , and dismiss litrn from the position of Inspector of Confederates in Eneiand . '—Mr T Reynolds said , he seconded the resolutien
with great pleasure ; there was a feeling , among the higher chaser that they alone oould rule , and among them Mr Anstey was to be found . Their ery was that the working classes were ignorant — when at the sims time they did everything to perpetuate if possible that ignorance . Hewaseorry to say that the bulk of the I * i 9 h member * wera traitors to their coantrv . — Mr Anstey had promised the electors of Youshal , thut if returned , his Bole object would be to benefit Ireland , but his votes in the Parliament were in complete contradiction of what he had stated on the hustings . Such men as Mr Anstey must be taught fchafc they must not play with the liberties of

National Petition , and the firm attitude- and 3 ^ exemplary forbearanoe of tbe countless njasseg ' $ assembled on that day to testify their adherence ^ 9 $ to do honour to the sacred Charter of their iw * $ liberties . I hasten , therefore , to enrol myself a * ^ cere , and ardent , and , I trust , also , an eaer ?« r 5 and not wholly useless , partisan of the p < i * | J A Charter . In that ch aracter , will you allow me ? % to impregs upon the Chartists generally , but ml * ' * especially upon their recognised leaders , the vliS t and urgent necessity of removing , with all prs , ;^ V epefed , aud by all available fflcaag , every b \ . J j which preseats itself to a complete union and ama U gamation of the trading and industrious clas 3 = » S and to an abB 9 lute fusion of their interests and ex . i ertions . . " U
It appears to me aa ess » n [ ial condition for % i achievement of this great object , to disabuse tha P mindB of the trading classes of the unfortunate deb '• • sions and raicapprehenaiona , under which theyk t bour . -aa to the correct principles and objects of tha * Chartists ; and as to the means by which they propose ; * te a' tain their ends . The press , which would appE ? , , i to be the natural organ of the mutual good an ^ j t % tanding of these classes , whose interests are in S reality one and indivieible , is , I regret to say , ti 9 £ main instrument of the disunion which basmada '
them and keeps them slaves , ar j d is the great fosterer of all the reciprocal doubts , jealousies , and BU 3 pj . ciong , by whioh that unhappy disunion is porpekuated . In fact , the daily press , by which alone tha trading classes in the metropolis , at least , can ba thoroughly imbued with a sound knowledge and true appreciation of the principles and views of tha Chartists , as identical with their owh best interests , is emphatically , and to the very core , corrupt . It ia as much the hired servant of tbe privileged classes , as their footmen or their valets ; and obeys thn i
orders of its masters with a cringing and lickspittla servility , whieh wauld distinguish above his oom « peers the bigeest-calved and most-befloured ' Jen . ' kins' in Belgrave-square . Hence , sir , the coolness \ or , worse still , the open hostility , manifested b y the ' middle classes in London towards the Chartists , They are to be pitied , rather than blamed ; ' poor souls , they speak but as they are taught , ' Be ours , then , the task to enlighten them , and teach them to behold in the industrious millioes . not ms ^ their warmest friends , but tbpir b ^ st customers . For this purpose , sir , a daily exponent of . Chartist ' opinions , is of instant and indispensable necessity i and I would respectfully urge on Mr Feargus O'Con ! nor , the increased claim on the gratitude and devotion of his countrymen , whieh he would derive from tbe es ' ablishment of such an organ .
I furSaer venture to submit to yon , sir , the Hound policy of encouraging the interchange and communion of opinions amongst the now dissevered classes . , Chartisin has everything t ) _ gain , and nothing to losa * by such discussions . Truth ia great and must prevail and the causa of cheap and popular government ! founded on the reck of Crutb , and appealing equally to the reason , the feelings , and the interests of the people , must erer gain additional adherents , I propose at once to establish aa association to be called' Tne Westminster Cheap and Popular Govern .
ment Association ; ' the objects of which shall be , to give reality and vitality lo the constitutional fiction of' the Sovereignty of the People ; ' and , as a means to an end , ' to promote , in the first place , a mutual good understanding and closs union between the Chartists and pII the other aggrieved and oppressed ola . « sesof the community . As Uiere is but little time to be spared , I beg to say that if half a dozen only of your metropolitan readers will convey to me , " by letter , their adhesion to my proposition , I i ? ili con ' V 8 ne a meeting ot my correspondents , at which I will explain the details of ray views and plaua .

—t ^ Jf ^ J fclTJUa FJ ^ tU lfcJFI ~ f- ^ t ^ "J ^ J ^^ ' J k ^ BHi b ^ V . ^ THE PROSTITUTE PRESS . The following are a few specimens of tbe l . ifcsfc lies and calumnies directed against the Chartists by the infamous prf S 3 : —
{ From the Examiner . ) Tho Chartist assemblage was short of the crowd always to ba collected to ses a boxiag-match or a cock-fight . If Mr Feargaa O'Connor had given out that on the 10 th of April he would , at one o ' clock in the afternoon , jump into a quirt bottle ,-he would have colleated ton times the number of people to witness in due course tbe postponement oi the ex « ploit . The largest calculation gives 20 , 000 to tha meeting of Monday , and boys made a large portion of that number . As another considerable portion must have been the marauders of London , jt is eleae that the bulk of the London Chartists have no disposition to commit themselves to the chances of involvement in outrage ,
Those who complain of the military and othet preparations held in reserve , may be assured that such preparations will always be provided to meet illegal violence , and crush it in its onset , but that there is also in the minds of the classes resolved to support the laws of the settled resolution , in tha event of extreme necessity , net to trifle with the exigency , and to exorcise sdcii vigour in repression of tumult as to bring it most shortly to an end . True policy and true humanity council this course , and if the guardians of the peace find themselves compelled to resort to the last means of defence against armed aggression , they will tike care to do so effectually , and so that the stress of the chastisement shall fall on the foremost ; n the wickedness .
( From the Morning Chronicle of Monday . ) We observe by the Sunday papers that the con « gre ^ ation ^ of demented persons calling themselves ' The National Convention , ' have not yet ' quit the metropolis , ' and that they assembled again yesterday in their usual piace of meeting , the Literary Institution , John street , Fiizroy-square . This is accounted for , not by any error ot the Vagrant Act , but by the fact that each of tho delegates ia paul seven shillings per diem uuS of the Chartist fund during the sittings of the Convention—one of the advantages to be derived by the community from tha fourth pnint of tlie Charter wheu it becomes tha lnw of the land—namely , the ' Payment of Members . '
Pooi' Tom Hoad , in prefiguring & House of Commons under the Charter , describes the hanouraWa member for Battersea rising in his place , after a long debate on the culture of mangel wurzel , telling tho Speaker that they hai . sat lone enon- 'h for that day , and calling on him to give them then : wages . Tho concluding proceedings are thus descrifced by the witty reporter : — Tho Spooker to the Treasurtr for funds ot onco applied , And at tbo sight ^ f money there arose oa ovory sWo One universal clamour of divide , ' ' divide , ' ' divide . ' It is more than suspected that tho deafness of the Convention Speaker on this ' point ' has led to these prolonged sittings of the' dolly gates / as Mr Adams calls them . There is a committee , called the Finance Committee , belonging to the body , that had not yet reported , although its report has been frequently inquired about , and now ill-natured people
are beginning to observe that this committee is the Mrs Harris of the Convention . If this be true wa no longer wonder at their being loth to depart , ' and still less are we surprised that they Bhould endeavour to fill up their time by the very plausible pretext of abusing the London newspapers . The Chartist delegates havo now discovered that tho deteat of their designs on Monday last , whatever those iesigns were , is entirely owing to the London press . ThHS it is , that a drunlcen , disorderly harlot , in tha ock , when sentenced to tho treadmill , hurls her dirty ehoa at tha head of tha magistrate , or a circumvented burglar en his way to the station-house , ilungeshia 'jemmy * into the skull of the policeman c It is the nature of wa « ps . ' says some great authority , ' to rttiia their buzz after they have lost their sting ; ' and it is natural enough that the geese of the Convention should continue'to gabble after they had left the Common .
( From IheSunday Times . ) We have said that Monday last was a day of which England has every reason to feel proud . It has proved that the mighty fabrio of our political and our social system reposes upon foundations t 60 stron £ , too firm , too solid , too deeply imbedded in the hearts and affections of t ^ e paople of this country—again we say the tbople as contradistinguished from the mob —to be even shaken for a moment by those insurrectionary storms that have sufficed to bweep away the lighter and more card-work structures of our continental neighbours ; * * It is time that the executive Bhould at once , here as well as in Ireland exeroise the power vested in it for the suppression oi
tho 3 ei seditious demonstrations ; they have the sympathies , and they may rely with confidence upon haying the assistance of toe great bulk of the lojal people of both countries . It is not ta ho endured that the peaceable , orderly , and well-disposed subjects of tho realm should be kept ia hot water by a turbulent ! section of anarohists , whosa revolutionary designs are but thinly' eoncealed under tho convenient masks of the Charter and Repeal . # * Those monster meetings Jbring together hordes of thieves and pickpeokets , aiJd affoed lo them opportunities too tempting to be resisted of enriching themselves afc tbe expense of their n ^ ghbjnw , and goyercme ^ ought to pat a stop to Shear ,

The Sheffield Repsalbus . —The usual wdekly meeting of the United Repeaters was held on Sunday evening last , in the larga room of tha Sta ? Inn . Mr M'Evoy in the clnir . The room was crowded to sv-ffocation . The fol'owing resolution was moved by Mr C . Leonard , and seconded by Mr Jobn O'Donnel : — ' That we , the Repealers of Sh . ifEekl , pledge ourselves to aid and support , by all means in our power , our fellow-countrymen now struggling fir liberty in the land of our birth and affections , and cheerfully adopt every sentiment and opinion expressed by Messrs O'Brien , Meagher , and Mitchel , and hereby enter into a subscription to support them in the cosiing tria ' , or for any purpose they may deem best calculated to serve the cause . ' Three pounds were
then subscribed ta the Defence Fund for defraying the expenses incurred in the prosecution of the Itiah patriots . Paisley . —Glorious triumph of Fbaternitj . —On Friday evening last a large Cbartist and Repeal meeting , consisting of nearly 1 , 500 personB was held at Paisley , when , among other resolutions it was carried , That the right of Ireland to be governed by a distinet and independent legislature is undeniable and what every country should enjoy , and that the act of 1800 , called tho Act of Union , has become a signal iailure and a source of misery to both countries—a partnership importunate—having increased England s taxes and multiplied a thousand-foid
, , Ireland ' s poverty . ' The speaker compared the Union to the assumption by the Glasgow Town Council of the business of the Paisley Council . The seconder ( an Irishman ) shook hands with the proposer , and , amidst mucii npplausa , declared the nmriai > e between Chartism and Repeal now accomplished . Several advocates of the Charter and Repeal addressed the meeting , which breathed with pure democratic ardour . The chairman announced , amidst the most enthusiastic cheering , that the collection for the evening amounted to £ 3 . 3 i 2 d . Tire maetiai ! then broke up , giving three cheers for F . O'Connor , W . S . O'Brien , Repeal , and the Charter , and three groans for the A ' gerine Whigs . .
