Socvetyisaid tl » s * eaker ) WMB <> Bimedott at the present time , that vice was virtae , and virtue Tioe . All sebemea were reswted to for the purpose of throwing one portion of the working classes into the streets and Waging the others lower , in their wages , so that they ¦¦ rate scarcely able to obtain an honest livelihood .

Mr . Leach then related what a working man would hate to -pay even allowing him to get the former sum , and argued fo jt the ~ reduction in the wsges was not all which operated injuriously to the interest of the working man , for whilst his wages were reduced , his rests , leys , food sad clothing were stationary , so that he would have to jay as much for his articles out of 8 s ., aa he would when getting doable the sam . Hence it was , that thousands
were brought from cottage houses into cellars , to be / h ^ mori in r * g « and only half-fed . The tyrants , the cotton lords , the property classes , had formed a foul ttmrindpled and diabolical conspiracy , and baring a power # rer the law , they had carried their uefarioa * « wjgn » into execution and sneered and Iaughod to acorn the working people whilst they were plundering them . He denied the assertion that the interests of the middle classes and the working classes were identical Suchas r"k «»« . publicans , and other small shopkeepers who stood behind the counter were somewhat Me&txfied , became the better the wages of the working classes , the Irjgfr were * h" > profits . If then they depended upon the wages of the operatives , they must fall in the same proptptiaa . Though sach was tb * ease , this class who had
Ttyr o « t of the ranks of the working classes , were generally gpeaking , the most haughty and ambitious , sad the inveterate enemies to liberty .

" The speaker -said the time bad arrived wbeo neutrality was a crime ; when they witnessed fi » distress on every side , it was tbe duty of every individual to come forward a&d declare bis opinion .

At fbnmnnting on Friday nigbt , tbey would not let Doyle apeak until it was carried by a show of bands , and Mr .

ADDRESS OF THE LONDON DELEGATE COUNCIL TO THEIR CONSTITUENTS OF THE METROPOLIS . Breth&ea , —Men anxious to be free ; we appeal to you at this important juncture to direct your immediate attention to the address emanating from your Executive ; the measures therein preposed demand your investigation—claim your earnest support The time has aow arrived when ( laying aside all party bickerings ) we must make an onward move in the cause of liberty , a determined attack upon the bulwarks of corruption ; we have now an enemy in power who will , upon tbe least sign of vacillation in our ranks , pounce with tyrannic grarp upon us—will endeavour to re-enact the brutal measures of their late predecessors ; but arise in your
moral majesty—show to the world that you are prepared to lead the vanguard of the army of freedom and the Tory government will , as tbey have ever hitherto done , qaail before tbe determined union of an intelligent and mighty people . You are acquainted with the line of conduct laid down by your elected head ; if you approve of it , hesitate not one instant aooat its immediate adoption ; it cannot be done on the spur of the moment ; to carry its recommendations into victorious tffect , it demands the exercise of your continued and persevering exertions ; set them about the work in right earnest , commence obtaining signatures to the National Petition , nominate the men of your cboiee , men worthy to represent the intelligence , the democracy of this metropolis in the ensuinj
Convention , and have an eye on the mean * of raising Uie necessary funds for their support ; relax not in your energies until you have accomplished all that your own interest , tbe interest of your country demands of you ; see well to the mpport of tho Executive—you have placed them in a noble , yet perilous position—paralyse not their energies by withholding the sinews of warfare ; if you appreciate their exertiens , give them the means of triumphantly continuing them ; as a means of doing this , let each of you immediately take up his new card of membership , adopt the suggestion of the Executive respecting tea-psjrties , festivals , etc , and let those amongst you whom Dune Fortune has placed in easy circumstances commence raising a voluntary fund for their support On this subject being well attended to mainly depends the effectiveness of pur Association Above all , promote good feeling and brotherly love in out rankslet
own —not the artful efforts of designing men produce even the appearance of disunion—let a spirit of unanimity preside over our actions let each among us , forgetful of out own private feelings , look only to the welfare of our common country—let this feeling animate our bosoms , and danger and difficulty will speedily vanish before our concentrated efforts . We shall then not only deserve , but obtain our freedom . We remain , your representatives , —Messrs . J . Fussel Q Humphries , Charles F . QoodfeUow , Thomas Mills , William Drake , Philip M-arath , Edward Pkkersgill , James Smith , James Knight , Andrew Hogg , — Martin , John Watkins , Edward Lsngwith , Mills , Date , Buflfey Ridley , Edmund Stallwood , William Whaley , John Worthington , Armstrong Walton , Alexander Wilson , WIBJam Wilkina , Simpson , Nodder , M'Manus , Lstacae , Wm .

PAIStET . —O'Connor at Paisley . —Oar O'Connor affair came off on Wednesday last , and began and ended in capital style , despite of the long-oontinued extraordinary depression ef trade . First , there was a meeting called for three o ' clock p . m .. to be held in th « Old Law Church , which , long before tbe appearance of Mr . O'Connor , ( who arrived from Greenock about four o ' clock , ) was crammed in every corner where it was possible that a hnman being could find admittance ; and hundreds on hundreds had to go away withont having ; heard or seen him . Mr . William Thomason , of the Vale of L « v « n . the people ' s representative for PaiBlay , was appointed to the chair , and opened the meeting with an excellent speech of considerable length . Two addresses ,
one from the Chartists of Blderslie , and the other from those of Paisley , were then read and presented to Mr . O'Connor , who was then introduced to the meeting , and spoke at great length iff bis asnal aWtf manner . He 8 howtd ~ ap the absurdities of the anti-Chartist Corn Iaw repealers , most effectively throwing the ridicule upon them which tbey nave so well deserved . He spoke at great length of the sufferings of the working population , and of the best remedy , tbe one he has always unflinchingly advocated , political enfranchisement—showed most convincingly that no emigration was required if the land vr& 3 properly distributed—went at considerable length into the absurd moral-force question , aad proved that it was now happily dead and baried—and
ended ; in his accustomed masterly manner , repeating his well-known motto , ** Universal Suffrage and no Surrender . " It is needless to say he was vehemently applauded throughout . A social meeting had also been called , to be held in the Exchange Room , Nossstraet , admission by tickets , threepence each . This place , which is capable of holding 1000 persons stand * ing and sitting , was also crowded to excess , indeed whole crowds had to go away , nnable to gain admission . What is called the "free and easv" principle was acted upon with regard to the refreshments provided , each person being served with whatever he called for . Mr . Thomason was chairman here also , and commenced the business by a speech of considerable length . Mr . James Lee , farmer , of Stanleygreen , was the croupier , and acquitted himself in a
most praiseworthy mannner . All the toasts usual on these occasion * were drunk and appropriately responded to . Mr . O'Connor spoke for more than two hours , and was , as he richly deserved , repeatedly interrupted with the most deafeniHg cheers . A number of patriotic and other songs and recitations were given , and altogether the evening was passed with a great deal of instruction and amusement . The audience was decent and orderly , about a fourth or fifth of them being females . The only interruption which took place was given by one of tho "intelligent classes "—a drunken Jawyer who had to be carried out . With the customary votes of thanks the meeting broke np about twelve o ' clock , having enjoyed themselves for three hoars and a half , or thereabout . —Scottish Patriot .
