HOME COL 0 KIZA 33 O 2 ? . IXR £ S 3 VIII . 30 IEK EDITOJt OP TH * KOHTSEBB STAB . Sie , —Tour paper of this ^ ay , -which is before me , tears . ample testimony of the rapidity wita which fimnges of tbe most eventful ^« Tar » c > axe tatirg place in tiua-country . I am also glad to see * h ** it shews acdicationa that the- people are awakening to the neces-» ty of ^ steeag asd tf £ I 1 defined org&irza&on , on their psrts ^ to render effective Vba power they possess j and I have no tkrabfc but ihe practical experience they have ahfeady attaioea , Tdll tender each snccessive attempt to -obtain their T ^ enezsSonmore powerful than the last , mitathgr shall 2 istb aenieredtiie " mighty victory *> ver poverty , "vice , and crime , and rendered man "universally TrealUiy-sxttaonsanfl happy .
, , I mnst , -howereii fluow out fiis suggestion to all "whoiead Sbese iBtter * , to ieep thox minds engaged upon iroao , large , and universal measures , ^ Bhieh are not oaly eaaty attainable , but none other -will be adequate to tbe mats of the times . Hating in my tiro lift letters pointed out how easily national employment , ^ and national ^ location , may be immediately snd bentfidally given to all -who nqu ^ re them ,-I have this ^ reek to consider &b manner in ¦ which the necessary revenue for the conntry 1 b to be -obtained : -which forms the third part of the Prelimi nary Chartet This la by a gtadnated property tax , commencing Tiatb properties ol not less tTren two hnnfired pounds a year . In any change that may take place , individual jnstice vnR lccdly demand that erery effort be made that no
person imneEEarily suffer by the c&ange ; and it must therefore be strongly insisted npon that the present engagements of the country be honestly met and discharged . 1 Mb ysUl be no difficnJt task : on the contrary It is only by such ajroceeding that a calm and saHrfactary arrangement can be made . Some . mil doubtless srjjnE ag&inst this or that impost as being heavy to be borne ; or that Qlia or that pennon should not have I > ee& given ; but if 'we aUo"w the industry and inteliigsice of the country to be 2 fnlly fdeveloped , Tfith a proper drcnlating medium to represent -wealth as zspidfy as It 'will be created , it may be readily sho-tra £ hat -stb possess ample means , not only to meet cur present engagements , but any additional ones that may 5 » wgjdred to tang flie new system fairly Jnto
opera-A tax on accumulated property , is the only just one Sat can bo levied , to meet the expences which have been incurred , or may hereafter be required , to hold together during the transition to a better and higher sts £ a . cf existence the elements of society in a manner that "will prevent entire anarchy and confusion . "What is it that requires the assistance and protecttionef the ElateIbr individual interests ? Nothing bnt file property accumulated and passed over to individuals ; and trhSst this assistance and prctecUon is still leqnireS , the meanE must be freely yielded by those ¦ who claim to themselves the nght and property in the things protected .
^ Whenever a rational system of society shall be fairly introduced , vra » frsn take the natural elements of ¦ sreaiat—land , labourjSand ^ jn ^ ^ a TnXh the present accumulated capital -we possess , xender ^ them as rapidly ard EStensZrdj available to the berefit of every Indivitlnzl of the human race ~ onr knowledge Trill permit ; sod ttdB Trill be chEerfuHy aeeeeded & > by all , as all ml } SsiST that fr-jpV may « bJojt everything xecessazy for h's comfort and'well ^ eing . " Sut nntil this be the case , we must 2 iever 3 imflpr any circumstances , * friT ? T > fe from xesponsihOities that lave beenincurred ^ hovrever erreneouslj ; Imt let them be 3 » me by those ameng us vrho receive de sdrantaco of the protection .
Tour leaders-will observe that Mr . Owen proposes that this tax shall only commence -with properties yielSing an income of not less than two hnndred pounds a-jear , and th&t it EhsU be graduated in proportion to lhaampunt of income -whicS-racbperEcnpossesses . This arrangement , taking place , as it -mil , "with the remission of all other taxes , and full national employment lor every individnal who requires it , trill give to every one the means of procuring all things necessary for his physical comfort , vrh&Bt a sound practical education for aB , Tdll enable aU to enjoy , rtiih dsDj iccreaang pleasure , these higher and more i « rHt > i , advantages , ¦ jrlcck may now readily be placea "within fiis reach et slL
I have sot before me the the necessary statistical information for deciding the per eentage at -which ; this tas should commence , nor the proportions is -srhjch it diduld gradnate , nor should I feel ^ nriinfyi to use them , if I had . My -wish in this course of letters is to draw np , and -elevate the minds Jof yocr readers to high and comprehensive modes of meeting the dimcuties in ¦ which we are no ^ placed , ather than to twitter them stray with minute attention to details ; but I shall always feel bound io substantiate my assertions by detail , if it shall be ailed for in -a truth-seeJong spirit , iy any persons "who desire the information ; and if , at any ^ me , ! advance propoatione which may be consldezed impractical , or not sumdently explained , 1 shall always have great pleasure in again reverting to the subjects , until I lave made myself clearly understood , or Lave found that I lad taken up a r ^ ntion tHwrti "was ' Tmtenable .
We have not to large ! titat objections maj be made to Eueha mode cf t ^ ' ^^^^ as is lieie procoEea . j ssa , xs the sSuzs of men sib , si the present morement , con . ducted in the most Tr-y ^ Tnnai TrmtiTm » such objections may lor the time by -very strong ; bat in proportion as the ignorance of the people can be removed , opposition Trill cease . TEMstax , fairly . levied , 'would be most hi £ h ? y { jeneSdBl to evtsy individual , ¦ whether a payer to it , or isceiver fromit ; and it -3 s only by inch artsngement being adopted titat an immense amount cf misery can lie piETQited accusing to a number of persons -who iave , most nnfcrtunately for themselves , been made dependant for their subsistence on means -which they ¦ jrould be deprived of bat for this arx&neement .
"What ? s sow require , is , to arrive as rapidly as possible at a ; truly za ^ onal state of society ; for it is only 2 a such a state that all the powers and faeolties of man , pliysical , mental , and meral , can be practically developed ; and in £ uch a state nose -will either know ' vast pi the fear ol it . Oar ouaness is therefore to ftT » tn ^ Tw > ^ 'n ^ n t"KA preseui posdtioQ of erery iffiQiTidual ; and-whilst * e take care that he suffers as little as possible by any change that may require to be made ,-we lauEt at the ^ w ^ n time endeavour to jKrbttti opposition to the change required , y «^ lead his mind for--srard to-assast in every manner possible .

I cannot , however , take the desponding view of thinga'wMcb . Sir James Graham did in the House of Ccmmons last night . He said that if the Repeal of the
Union , be obtained for Ireland , the glory of England is departed , and she -will cease to hold a position among yp-tfor . g .

It is evident from the proceedings of the past week that the eensternatien c ? osr rulers is daily increaxiag ; and that they = will be so confused that they -will tither resign , or eagerly seek lor help from scy . parties -who « sn sire it j and those only ¦ srho are -well ver 33 d in tha sciences of human nature and of society Trill know how to apply £ ach remedies as vill Kieet the exigencies of the case .

O'Cennor ' s letter en the state of the General Defence Fund was read over , "which seemed to give very general satisfaction to all present ; indeed , the only astonishment is that so small * sum has been expendedj considering the protracted state of the trials , and the very great inconvenience and expense to which
the parties have been subjected ; and more especially When this expense is contrasted with that incurred by the Government in conducting the prosecutions . Mr . John Gilbertson then proposed , and Sir . John . Mooney seconded / the following resolution , which waa carried unanimously : — " The members of this Council cannot separate without expressing their utmost satisfaction upon ^ Tiniining the balance-sheet of Mr . O'Connor . They cannot sufficiently admire the manner in which the whole business has been conducted ; nor can they express sufficiently their thanks to those individuals whose great exertions ao materially aided in the struggle against the Government , more especially Mr .

Z . OKBOK . —METB . 0 P 0 L 1 TASDEJ . EGATEMEBTIKG . —Sukday . AFTEBSODJi . —A delegate meeting was held on Sunday afternoon , ' Mr . Humphries in tbe chair ; credentials were received from Mr . Smith , for foe city shoemakers , Golden-lane ; fromJflr . jFasseOl , for Bamsburypark ; Messu . Cowan and Weedon , ior Glerkenwcll ; from Mi , Overton , for the city of London ; Mr . M'Grath , from the Standard of Liberty , Brick-lane ; and from Mr . Illingworth , from Mile-end-road . The minutes of the previous meeting having been read and confirmed , Mr . Fasaell opened the / business and expressed his sorrow that the Lancashire delegates had come to the decision they iad relative to the appointment of aa Executive , which he eo&iddexed to be the course best calculated to give general satisfaction . Ee
was in favour of & pro . ion . Executive , whose power should cease u soon as a Conference should have been holden , and an Executive appointed . A temporary Executive might be of essential service in arranging the various plans of organization for the * adoption of tbe conference , and might save a vast amount of time to that body . Mr . Simpson concurred in the views of Mr . Fussell , and was sorry to Bee the jealous feeling which existed with reference to the conduct of the London Chartists . Mr . Cowan moved " That an Executive Committee of three persons be appointed , to arrange a plan of Organization for the metropolis . " Mr . Wheeler explained that the object of the meeting vf as to enable them to come to some arrangement with their brethren in the country relative to a National 0 rgani 2 i-
tion ; if this could not be speedily effected , he should be happy to render Ma assistance in establishing an Association of the metropolis ; but he was ef opinion that every other measure calculated to produce a National "Union should be first xesorted to . Mr . Cowan withdrew his motion . Mr . Fnsseli moved that & committee of five be appointed to issue an address or remonstrance to the country , stating their opinions upon the subject ; and that they also be intrusted with the duty of re-organizing London . Mr . Simpson seconded the motion . Mr . Grover was of opinion that a plan of Organization might be agreed to without the expence of a Conference . Mr . Wheeler rupported the motion for an address . It was his opinion that a Conference should be called previous to the election of an
Executive ; but when he saw the variety of propositions which had been put forth for the assembling of a Conference and that not one of them had been generally responded to , he wa » convinced that ; to ensure unani mity and good feeling it would be necessary to elect an authorized head to call the Conference into existence nod to act until an Executive was appointed ; "while , if they awaited the decision of the Conference and election by the usual mode , it would net be until several months had elapsed , during which time , if some extra exertions were not nsed , tbe last remnant of their Organization would be destroyed . Mr . Illingworth "was in favour of the appointment of s Committee , but thought ths best plan would be to assist their country friends in carrying ont the proposed Conference at Birmingham .
Mr . M'Gratb approved of a committee , but was of opinien that the first step taken should be the calling o ! a National Delegate Meeting . Mr . Fusaell , on the suggestion of several friends , withdrew bis motion for the present , and moved that they approved of a Conference being called in Birmingham on : Wednesday , the 16 th of AugniL Mr . Grover seconded the motion . Considerable discussion arose respecting the time being too limited . Mr . Wheeler moved , and Mr . Simpson seconded that it might take place on Monday , the 21 st of August . Mi . li'Gratb mored , and Mr . PidkersgUl seconded that it be proposed for the 1 st Monday in September . Mr . M&rnard was in favour of fixing , if
possible , upon the same date as tbe Lancashire delegate meeting . Upon reference to the report no date appeared to have been fixed upon . After a long and friendly discussion , Mr . WheelerVmotfon for the 21 st of August was carried > y a large majority . Mr . Pussell then brought forward his motion for ] a committee to issue an address , and draw np a plan of Organization for London , which was unanimoualy agreed to ; and Messrs . Wheeler , Fnsseli , M'Grathi Simpson , and Davoc were elected , with instructions to procure or get printed 2000 fsc-similes of the Association cards ; many members having been lost for want of cards to enrol them . The meeting then adjourned . One shilling and sixpence was received from Camberwell .
Citt of Losdos Political and Sciektific IssiTrrros . —The members of the city locality m 6 t here on Sunday morning , and transacted a variety of business connected wiEb re-organizing tits locality . Mr . Overtoil was elected delegate to tie 3 Ietropolitan Dalegate MeetScg . After tbe " buBlness was concluded Mr . Mints delivered sn animated address npon the subject of the French revolution . Mt . FuEsell delivered an excellent lecture at the same place , on Sunday evening , and was highly applauded . Several other speakers also addressed the meeting .
