Wallace was called- to the chair , and opened the business of the meeting , the object of ¦ which , he sa ' . d , was to take Btep 3 to brinA" before the country ths porerty that now prevails in the paTish of Halifax , with a view to its amelioration . He made appalling statements relative to the ' poverty of the people in different parts of the country ; but more especially in the parish of Halifax , as being better acquainted with its situation than any other district . He concluded by condemning , ia very strong term ? , the idea n - physical fores ; and then introduced Mr . P . M . Brophy , who , aiter addressing the meeting for a
eonfideraole time on the importance of unipn , and of those present joining in the agitation for the wlole Charter , as a means to amend * heir wretched condition , concluded by moving that a Committee of twenty-one be appointed by this meeting to get up a requisition to the chief constable to convene a public meeting to take into consideration the best possible means oF staying the impending ruin of the middle classes , and tne demoralised and * pauperised condition of the working classes generally ? Air . B . Hushton seconded the resolution . Mr . Kay supported it ; after which , it was put to the meeting and carried unanimously . Tae committee was then formed , and the meeting separated in ; he hope that their condition will soon be ameliorated .

ND . —Public Meeting for the Relikp of the U . n £ Siploy £ D Operatives . In compliance wita a rcquisiuou most numerously and respecvab y signed , a public meeting of the inhabitants of Sunderland wa ^ convened by the magistrates to be held in the Commission Rf » om , Exchange Builcings , on Monday . In coasequem-e , hmevcr , of the very lar- ; e attendance , the meetiug took place in iho large ar ^ a , in the lower part of the Exchange . A . White , E--q , late M . P . tor Suaderland , was called to the caair . He opened the business in a britf acd ieehng speech , after which Dr . Brown
carcc forvraid to move the firs : resolution , WL-ich was to th-3 tS-id that a B-jbscription should then be entered into for the purpose ^ of raisiag a fund to be applied in employing and relieving lhe nnemployed operatives of the town . _ _ E . Backhouse , Esq ., seconded the resolution , w ; : ieh was carri d ' traaniinonsly . The second resolution , ^ hieh was moved by Richard Spoor , E-q ., and seconded by another gent ' eman , appointed a committee for the purpose of co : ; ccnr . g funds and superintending the applica- tiou of the same , for ; he purpose stated ^ iu tue firsi resolution . It was then proposed that the coai-j zniitec should coits-i-: t uf the Borough and Count } ' j magistrates , the ministers of all denominations , and ; such p-rsons as they mkhs appoint . Ac this stage ; of the business Richard Spoor . E-q ., came forward and moved "That . Ur . Wiiiliam * , and Mr . Bruce , grocer , ^ honld also b ; ' members oi the committee , as \ they were men ia whom the operatives would have ¦ full confidence , and also because they were in pos- ; session of much valuable information relative to the ' |
condition of the working classes . Tae motion was , seconded by I > r . Brown , aud carried amidst great ; cheering . Mr . Brn&e proposed , and = Mr . Williams ¦ sec = nded , " Tnat Mr . Pierce , a working man , should , be added to the committee . " This was also carried . ¦ Immediately after this the business of the meeting : was declared to be completed . Tcis seemed greatly ¦¦ to disappoint the ai-eaibbge , who apparently anticipated something like the usual quantity of speech . making , or at any rate , taat some information ' lelathe to tie extent of aistres 3 in the towa , aud ^ contemplated measures of relief , shuuld be brought ' forward . This abrupt termination of the proceed- ;
ing , there is iittlc doab : arose from 3 nervous dread ; of Charus ; resolutions and amendments ; it was ' not , however , de ? med advisable by the friends of the Charter to bring forward their views , unless the ' proceeding of other partus should afford alegiti-. mate opportunity for doing so . This was not the J case , and as the wealthy cannot pretend that their } oeneT ^ le : ^ tffjrcs have been thwarted , it is hoped ' that they will prove the genuineness of their sym- \ paiby by ths liberality of their aid . ihe thanks of the meeting were then given to the Chairman by : acclamation . At the cl ^ se of the meeting £ 110 was . subscribed by tjeatletuea present . ;
WOLVEBHASIPTON . —Public Office , Mo 5 dat , Juse 13 th . —The case of Mr . Mason and the constable of Sed ^ ly came on on Monday lafet , at the public office ^ in this town . Mr . Mason , being called npon by the Magistrates , walked up to the front of the bench . The great interest taken in the ease produced a general sensation throughout the Cours whenever that gentleman was called npon . Mr . Masou having conformed to the rules of the conrs , the magistrate desired him to state his case Mr . M . proceeded to state as follows : —** Gentlemen , by the desire of a considerable number of the people of the parish of Sedgly , I visited that place on Friday evening :, June the 3 rd , to deliver * an address on the principles of the People's Charter .
The p ' ace where the meeting was held is , I nnder-Etand , called the Bnll S ake . Mr- Mogg accompanied me , and addressed the meeting first . He spoke for a short time , during which the people were very atientife , and concluded by introducing me to the meeting . A bench had been supplied for U 3 to s . and on by a good woman of the village . I ascended the bench to address the " people ; they were very attentive and peaceable . ' While proceeding in my address , having only speken between five and ten minutes , thepersonwho stands at the bar came crushing through the people ia a violent manner , and approached me . Hespoketo measfollows : Sir , youare using exciringiauguage , andorderedmetocome down . I replied , that if my iangaiga w » s illegal he coald
take it down , and 1 would be responsible to the law for it . He said no more , but seized hold of the bench on which I stood . I then said to him that he was acting very illegally and improperly . While thus remonstrating with h : m , he pulled the bench from benesth me , and threw me from it in a most brutal manner . 1 certainly should have been injured but for two or three persons , who sustained me from falling to the ground by receiving me into their arms . I will not , gentlemen , refer to the consequences of this outrage , aud the proceedings which have taken place elsewhere . The following day I applied fora warrant , which is cow before theeourt , to prosecute the person who now stands at the bar . Having submitted the fact 3 of the case , I now
appeal to your justice , -to determine the redress , I can produce witnesses to confirm my charges . Magistrate—Whit are their names \ Mr . Mason—Tne first is Mr . Mo ^ g . He was then called upon . Magistrate—Were you at this meeting ? Mr . M . — I was . Magistrate—Weil , state what- you have to say . Mr . MOig then stared that he had been eye witness to the whole , and said that every on ? present on that occasion could undoubtedly prove the trnth of Mr . Mason ' s statement ; . Magistrate—What was the language Mr . Mason was u . « ing when Beaman , the constable , came to him ? Mr . Mojii;—I rec- ' -llect the language well ; it was as follows : — " It was , " said he , '' laid down in Scripture , that he who did not work , neither should he eat ; but , "
said he , " by a strange perversion of justice , the most industrious of society were p = rishiuj » for want , while the idle were enjoying every comfort the world can afford , and revelling in every luxury . " Magistrate—And whit would you infer from that ? Would it imply tha ; those who were ont of work should go and talie it ! Mr . Mot'g—I was not \ a ^ are teat there wrre any present who were cm :, o ! \ work ; but this language could only apply to thes- ,- j who were working . Magistrates—Have you at-: ttuded any other meer . n ^ s with Mr . Mason ? L have . ; Magistrate—Where ! I was at a meeting with Mr . \ Mason a few -weeks ago , which wa 3 held on tht-WreKio ; also , I vr&s at a meeting with him ] a : eJy held in Wcl ^ erhamptoa . Tnere were SO . Ot'O persons
at the former . Gons-. able—\ v ill your Wor .-hips let j me put a question to Mr . Mason 1 Magistrates— I Certainly . Consisble—Did you hold a meeting at ; Sodim Ctnis village is about a mile from Sed"l \) the j nittht before you came to S-dgly ? Mr . Masou—It j was not at that meeting yon assaulted me . 1 am here to prove the chzrgeo I have made against you . I canuo ; see that meetings held elsewhere have any- thing to do with this case . Magisirate-yPtTaaps you will atiS"i \ 'or the qu--s ' ion , as other meetings have been referred to . Mr . Ma ~ on—As you have desirca it , I havem oljection . I did hold a meeting there . Cou 5 " able—Were thtxo many persons came up with vou to Sedgly ? Mr . Mi son—There were several ConB'abie—Hew n as . -y ' Mr . Mason—I cannot tell ;
I u ; d not deem it necessary to count them . Constable —Have you not btea inc . cted for attending that meeiiiig J ( This w ^ . 3 evidently the arrangement to fjii tne case . The p : < headed tC 3 mp had beeu . no doubt , specially taught to grunt enfr this sentence . ) Mr- Mason—I have ; but that is for an alleged act subsequent to your outrage upon me , and which your conduct had led to . Constable—Your . Worships , I am bound over to appear against Mr . Mason a * ths General Quarter Sessions . 'Ihe magistrates here consulted for a few minutes -a-la-farce . Tiiey then addressed Mr . Masos , and stated they would dismiss the case ; but that he ( Mr . M . ) could appeal to a higher Court . Mr . Mison replied ,
that he certsinlj would . Then , said Mr . if ., what am I to understand from this case 1 Am I not only to be fcubject to legal prosecution for the language I Buy use , but ami also to be Eubject to the most brutal treatment from a petty constable , opon the mere charge thaJ I am using exciting language 3 dagisgrates—We can eay notMDg : - the constable is charged to preserve the peace . Mr . Mason—Well , then , I now understand what I am to expect from the law and authorities . Mr . M . then bowed , and left the Court . The most profound attention pervaded the whole Court daring the hearing of the case . We understand that Beaman has implicated liimieif with . £ aifi 9 endeace to commit Mr . Mason

acd that a proseoution for perjury will be institute d , against him . Mr . Mason visited Sedgly , on 1 nday evening last , and delivered an address of opwards of an hour . It was a very large meeting ; and the people have hailed the principles of the Charter with unsurpassable enthusiasm . It is impossible to describe what the conduct of this stupid constable has done to promote our principles . Mr . Linney was also present , and offered a few remarks . Mr . Mason having to return to Birmingham that evening , the whole mass of the people marched with him at least a mile on his way to Bilston , where he was ro take coach . When they stopped to return , Mr . M . and Mr Linney enjoined them to keep the peace . Three c , < ers wero given for the Charter ; three for Mr . . Mason : and three for the Chartists of Sedgly .

Chartists Of North Lancashire , look out ! For the last week the profligate organ , of dovilism has been devoting its poison to your destruction . "Some hireling makes speeches for you and sends them to the" Bloody Old Times . '' O . ' how the cowardly rufBan would delight in strengthening the bauds of despotism by a phyaioal force outbreak ; aad h < Jw its columns would . teem with advice to the jury class , if some score Chartists could be entrapped into an act of " r » mes " -made treason . Remember how
the Times' tool influenced the minds of the jury class against Frost , and then began to sympathise with its victim . Remember that"P . o . Well , the reporter of the Times , boasted in nay presence , at the Beaufort Arms , Monmouth , that he had paid ten pounds for the Times , for the indictment whica teas sworn to have been served on Frost . Remember that , and remember how delightfully it would be to Old Mother Walter , to find me in Lancaster Castle / instead of on the hustings at Nottingham , where with God ' help , he shall meet me . Remember that the
men who recommend you to a physical outbreak will , upon the day of trial , be absent . Remember that North Lancashire is not England , and that the Times is not ourjriend . Remember that the Times is , out of all comparison , the most vile , corrupt , and blackguard print published in the whole world . Remember that old Walter and the Times hallooed the jury class and the nation upon Frost , and hunted / him down ; that old Walter afterwards began , like a hypocrite , to praise Frostj to serve his own base
purposes . In short , Chartists , don't play the game of the Times ; for if you do , it will be "head you lose , harp the Times wins . " See what a triumph you would give the intellectual Chartists ! and those very fellows have their emissaries , under the mask ot Chartists , trying to damn your cause , and sow the seed of dissension among you . Yes , it is the moral force Sturgites , some of whom were the most violent of the physical force men in 1839 , who would glory in your madness .
As Beeely says , show me 100 , 000 men , of twentyone years of . , and all armed , and then we'il be talking to the bloody Old Times . Don ' t gel shot without the honour of returning the compliment , however the Times and your zeal may make you mad for a moment . . God knows I am astonished how you have borne oppression so long and so tamely ; yet , will I not council you to jump " out of the frying pan into the fire . " Believe me , that in less than two months , the shopkeepers will be . talking ' . about physical force , and so will the landlords ; then it will be fashionable ; but should you begin it , it would be thought vulgar , and all would join to put your physical force down . »
The -Times- ' knows ' that the tariff must fail and that Peel must then either reduce the expenditure , or suspend the Habeaa-Corpus Act ; not that he would desire it , but his party will ferce him into revolution before they will allow him to lessen the mess for the idle paupers . Your affectionate Friend , Feargus O'Connor .

TO THE EDITOR . OF THE NORTHERN STAR . Sir , —As your very valuable journal is ever ready to udvocate the poor man a rights , we , thei .-GhattUts . of Matlock wish through it to call tho attention of our Chirtist brethren throughout the country to the case of James Duffy , ; the noble : advocate of the people ' s rights . It is well known that a short timesince be was what we may term well to de , as a traveller , but throngh hia patriotic zaal in the cause which he how advocatesj he lost his sif uation . We are very sorry to learn that he nbw is in very reduced circumstances , and bis health
we fear , is beyond humaa skill to recover , brought on by the severe usage at Northallei'ton Gaol , for advocating our cause . Now there are betwixt four and five hundred Chartist assoeiatipna ; if each association would but give one shilling to this poor but good man , it would enable him to pnt himself in a small way of business ; remembering that many may help one when one caaaot help a many , we think it the duty of every honest Chartist to show to the fpea of freedom that out leaders are not to be ruined , but that we look upon them with respect We bAve forwarded our mite , we hope that others will go and do likewise . ¦
We feel confident that this appeal will not be made ia vain . We wish Mr . Hobson to have the kindness to be the treasurer .

TO TUE EDITOR OF TIIK NORTHERN STAR . Sir , —It is at reed ou all hands that great distress at present exists throughout the trading world . Of its cause , a multiplicity of opinions are afloat . D erhaps , amongst the many , you will allow me to give mine . It is well known that during the protracted war ¦ with France , under the reign of Bonaparte , the landed interest , or aristocracy of England , " pledged their lives and fortunes" in support of our Government . How was this p ! edge fulfilled ? Why , they created a fictitious capital , which said fictitious capital enabled them to double , yea , treble their rentals . At the conclusion of tho war , they procured the enactment of the Corn Laws , by the operar tion of whicn they have cvnirived to retain those rents to this day .
But while they passed the Corn Laws to-protect themselves , they also passed meaaurc-s to restore the old standard of money : or , in other words , to greatly curtail what they afterwards called that '' fictitious capital "' which had trebled their rents , and affected the prices of produce and all existing contracts to an almost incalculable extent . If the landed interest would not be seifiah , there would be no complaint against Government , do what th < y might . Coulu opeia ^ ive- ^ get sufficient at present , there would be a ^ ood t rade in England , independent of any foreign irade . I would recommend Government t > supply the wants of tho needy until my bow manufacture ytts into operation , and then tho cry against our rulers will be at an end , and plenty once more appear in the land .
Now , what effect had those measures upon tho manufacturing and commercial interest ? for , mark , the landed interest , i . « .. the landlords , had protected then , selves from the consequences of ; heir own acts by the Corn Bill of J 815 , enacted for the purpose of keeping ud tho produce of the land to war prices . What fffict had their measures upon me for instance ? for my-case was the case of thousands , and it will fully illustrate tho confiscating nature of the measure then passed . I had at the time flings m asuvc 3 wero determined on upward .--f
of £ 120 . 000 vaiuo in manuactured cloth and iu wool , while I had auoiher £ 80 , 000 sunk iu mills and machinery . Wiiat did all mis property sell for ! Less than £ U 0 , i ; 00 ' . !! Here was confiscation ! Here was a sweeping away ! ! Upwards of £ 120 , 000 silently , but tffectuaUy , filched from me , — one individual , —by Acts oi the Parliament ! Mine was but the case of thousands . Judge tiiea of the alteration made in the value oi property by the ' measures of our law-makers affecting the standard o ; value .
Let it be borne in mind , that all articles of wear are now disposed of at ona half the prices they were forty or fi-ty years ago . I challenge any one to disprove these facts ; and I aak , Sir , if this be the way to administer justice with impartiality and to give equal protection to the community 1 I am , Sir , yours truly , WILLIAM HIRST . Leeds , June 6 th , 1042 . P . S . Was not the wool duty kid on for the benefit
of the landed interest , aad kept on for years , till the foreigners began to manufacture for themselves , and undersell the regular manufacturers in the Loudoa market ? Then the duty was altered ; and at the time this measure was passed I had by me 500 , 0001 bs . weight of wool , for which I had paid about £ 14 , 000 duty ! ! When the measure was passed , I applied to Government for redress , but none could be afforded ! That measure took out of my pocket upwards of £ 20 , 000 !! J W . H .

TO THE EDITOR OP THE tygBTHERN STAR . Newport , Salop , June ] 5 th , 1842 . Sir , —Observing , in your paper of Saturday last * an announcement of a delegate meeting lor Salop and Stafford , with an intimation that the delegates , on their arrival , would inquire for me , and that I should conduct them to the place of meeting , I beg leave to say that if any parties were really desirous of holding such meeting , t thiuk , before fixing on me the reBponhibility of providing a place of meeting , they might have forwarded a few lines to me or some other person in the town , to the end that we might have had an opportunity of making some arrangement for the accommodation of the expected meeting . But , Mr . Editor , I had not the most distant ^ idea that any suoh meeting was in contcajplation , not having saen the Star for three weeks ¦ -. until late last night . .
You will , therefore , judge my surprise on reading the announcement , when i inform you that I have not received , by letter or otherwise , the slightest intimation from tha parties , whoever th ^ y may be , who intead to get up the said meeting . Tnerefore , I cannot help thinking that it is " a weak invention of the enemy . " I have received a letter by this day's post , from Messrs . Danks and Fairburn , of VVednesbury , requesting to know the originators of the meeting , the nature of business to be brought forward , ard other particulars ; but not being able to give them the slightest information , I wrote back to that effect .
Having every reason to believe that the expected meeting will prove a hoax , I hope you will be so kind as to devote a corner of your valuable paper to this , in hopes , if it is so , ihat the heartless originators of the scheme may be exposed . I should indeed be sorry to be in the sl / ghteat degree the cause , though unintentional , of any party putting themselves to a troublesome and unnecessary journey . And I remain , Mr . Editor , Yours , in the pursuit of justice , Frederick Macklin . [ We advise the party who sent the announcement not to attempt another hoax upon us . —Ed 1

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN STAR . . SiE ^ -We have read most at tentively your ¦ letter in last week's Star , and deeply lament the unhappydifferences between , you and the ieaders of the people , because all such differences weaken the cause , dissatisfy the people , and please the ruffians who rob labour of its due-reward , and trample on the dearest rights and privileges of man . With jour conduct as an Editor ' generally : we are perfectly satisfied , and we see nothing in your criticisms on the Sturge GonfereDce to give offence , nor to have caused the vituperation heaped upon you . Aa regards the letter of the Executive , we think you are perfectly right and justifiable in altering any sentence that is imprudent , or would bring the Pro ? prietor of the Northern Star into trouble , or in the slightest damage our cause . And those who will not
allow of such a prudeut step being takeD , ( without considering it injustice , ) are possessed of a species of egotism which we will never countenance either in friends or foes . We hope the leaders Of the people , and the people themselves , will profit by the example of common enemies by having no visible disputes whereon the world can taunt them with folly , a ? on our union mainly depends the success of our cause . You , Sir , have our best thanks for the zeal you have displayed in our cause , and for the lynx-like eye which you have always had on open foe and pretended friend ; and we hope all _ those dow mar * shalled under the banners of Chartism , will" a ^ re ' e to differ" on minor points , and stick like leather together , till we have safely pi lotted our good ship Charter over the stormy waves of political contention , and landed her safely in the harbour of St . James ' s . ¦ ¦ ' - . ' . " . ¦ ¦ . ; ¦
All those who are honestly struggling in the cause have our warmest gratitude , and we liope ior the future no more storms . If you can find room in next week ' s Star , for our opinions on your letter , yon will oblige our members . . " .. ' . '''• W . Aitken . ABhton-under-Lyne , June 15 , 1842 ,
