SHEFFIELD . ( From our own Correspondent . ) Sukdat Efekihg Lxcrrmx— Mr . Barker lectured in * be Association Room , Fig-tree Laae , on Sunday « t « hbr l « st , eabiect— - The evils of ft House of Lords . " The lecturer well handled his subjwt , exhibiting the put and present crimes of the aristocracy , the infamy of the law of primogeniture , and tbe absurdity of voting by proxy . The thanks of the meeting were awarded to Mr . Barker for his able lecture . Pcblic Mektiko . —The weekly public meeting of the Sheffield Chartists was held on Monday evening last , in the large room , Fix-tree Lane . Mr . Stokes was called to the ' chair . Mr . Julian Haroey , in a lengthy address , moved the adoption of a memorial to the Quean in behalf of the Welsh rictima . Mr . 2 f eedham seconded , the adoption of the memorial , which was carried unanimously . It was then resolved that the memorial , signed by the Chairman in the name of the meeting , should be sent to the Home Secretary for presentation to the Queen .
TeadesMEErnrss . —An overflowing meeting of the pen-knife grinders was beld on Thursday evening , D ? c . 2 ad , at the Rawson ' s Anns , Tenter-street . One » f the body was called to the chair . Mr . Rogers , of the firm of Joseph Rogers and Sons , Norfolk-street , Cutlers to the Queen , was present , as also Dr . Holland . Dr . Holland addressed the aeeting at great length , entering fully into the free trade qaestioa , showing up the fallacies of the * cheap bread , high wages , and plenty to do" gentry in a manner convincing to all present . He showed that the present degraded condition of the working elas 3 was to be mainly attributed to the gambling avarice of unprincipled manufacturers , who had glutted the markets of the world with the most
spurious of rubbish under the name of cutlery—thus destroying the trade , and bringing disgrace upon ihe very name of Sheffield . In proof thereof , Dr . Holland produced certain knives , bearing the name ef Rogers , manufactured by some unprincipled Bconiidrels , who made usa of the name of the above respectable and honourable firm ,-the said knives being the most contemptible rubbish ever attempted to be imposed upon a buyer—compared with which Peter Pindar ' s razors , " made to se ll , " were ¦ virgin steel indeed 1 At the conclusion of bis address , Dr . Holland said he should be happy to answer any question that might fee put to him . Oae of the operatives asked Dr . Holland if he did not think it would be well to ^ petition Parliament for a Charter of incorporation
for the cutlers , similar to what the en tiers of Sheffield formerly had t Dr . Holland said he considered each petitioamgB would be a waste of labour ; the present House of Commons was composed of men who were interested in destroying the old Charter , aot giving now ones to the working men . It was Bseless to look to the Parliament for relief , they must look to themse ^ es—they must remember the fable of Hercules and the waggoner , and cut their own shoulders to the wheel to lislp themselves ont -of the mire of their own difficulties . He did not approve of trade ' s unions , where they could possibly be dispensed with : but , the employers having
trampled upon the rights of their workmen , the workmen were justified , nay , it was their duty to unite with each other for the protection of their labour . Mr , Rogers spoke in confinnaiion of the TiewB and statement ! of Dr . Holland . Mr . Thomas Grossrand moved the thanks of tho meeting to Dr . Holland and Mr . Rogers , for their attendance tha * eveniig . ^ The mover warmly eulogised the Messrs . Rogers , in whose employ he nad formerly been , as gentlemen , who never failed to do justice to their workmen . The motion was seconded by Mr . Luke Firth , and . carried unanimously . The meeting then adjourned .
Tabl * Kkijk Haftbks . —A meeting of this inranoh of the cutlery trade was held on Monday last , at two o ' clock , in Mount Tabor Cbapel . The meeting was very nnmsrons , and ae sneh afforded as ft hope that the trades of Sheffield are arousing themselves to a sense of their importance as weahh-prodnoera , and the necessity of union amongst themselves to withstand the further encroachments of Crifiding oppression . Mr . i . uke Chapman was called to the chair , and well performed the duties of bis Cffioe , The following are the resolutions agreed to unanimously : — •* Tkat it is the imperative " duty of every member of the trade to promote and extend union among his fe llow workmen , and thereby promote bis own interest , and the interest of his
fflhw men . " " That the committee sit every Tuesday evening , from six to eight o ' clock , at the RawBon ' s Anas , Tenter-street , to receive the contributions of the trade . " " That the printed rules of the trade be acted upon , and abided by . " * That this meeting deeply regret the present system of competition between the employers , and protest against it as being injurious to the interests of both employers and workmen , and resolve that energetic measares shall be adopted to counteract the evil effects of so kaneful a system . " " That a general meeting of the trade be held the first Monday in every month , at the hour of two o ' clock , in their preeeot place of meeting . Mount Tabor Chapel . " Onr limits will not permit us to give the speeches
delivered , but it is only justice we should state , that bat one feeling seemed to actuate all present , viz ., a desire to unite with all the honest and honourable of their employers to put an end to that system of imposing inferior and spnrum 3 articles upon the home and foreign bnyer , to the injury of the honest manufacturer , and the ruin of the trade at large . Well will it be if the employers will meet the work-Ben in the same honest spirit . Upon the manufac turers now rest the responsibility of union and restored prosperity , er selfish disnnion and general rain . One fact we may mention in conclusion , the oordial reception our reporter met wkh shews that our principles are known and admired , and we trust the day is sot far distant when the trades of Sheffield will rally round the banner of our cause ,

HULXi . GREAT MEETING IN THE TOWN-HALL . On Monday , the Town-Hall of Hull was , for the first time , ocoapei by and appropriated to the bssineBS of iU rif htful owners , the people . A requisition , signet by nearly two huired inhaskants , of whoa upwards of seventy were roten , having bean forwarded to the Mayor , requestia / j him to call a meeting of th « Inhabitants of the boroigh , to « " »• eider the propriety » f petitioning Parliaaieat to take into consideration the present tefertive state of the representation of these kiagdoflu in the C * m *» tu * House of Parijameat , with » view to its amendment , the Mayor con veaed a meeting of this inKabitauta « f the borough , for Monday , to by holden ia the Town-Hall , at one in the afternoon .
It had been represented to his Worship that this was a most inconvenient hour for the people , tkat great numbers who felt strougly interested in the matters of coBBideratien to be brought before the meeting , would be , of necessity , excluded by this arrangement ; bat he refused to giro the nse of the hall for an evening meeting , and exacted fro » the deputation of requisitors who waited ipon him , a

pledge that the proceedings of the meeting should not be continued after dusk . Notwithstandinr , however , thiB disadvantage , even th * Morning Cnroriible is compelled to admit that the hall was densely crowded . It was , indeed , densely crowded , and no mistake ; and would have been so had it been capable of accommodating a much greater number . A , committee of the requisitora met in the Grand Jury Room , ftnd the doors of the ball were thrown open to the publio at half-past twelve . ' About one oolock , Mr . Padget , a workisg man , proposed tbat in the abaenee of the Mayor , the veteran Radical , Mr . John Jackson , should take the chair . This proposal being seconded , was carried unanimously . ¦ The Chaibmam regretted that the absence of the
Chief Magistrate , by whom the meeting had been called , should have furnished the present opportunity to hit fellow townsmen of testifying towards him their good opinion . It woald certainly have pleased him better to have seen the chair in other occupancy , but since they had thought proper to call him to the office , he would diBchargeitsduties in the best manner of which he was capable ; and he hoped be should have the support and kindly consideration of the meeting in the office to whioh they had called him . ( Cheers . ) He held the first duty of ft chairman to be impartiality—( hear , hear)—and he trusted that they would not find him deficient iu that necessary qualfication . He hoped that all speakers would he heard patiently , and that the matters of discussion to be
brought before them—matters in which the interests of the whole nation were involved—would be Berionsly considered , and dispasiouately treated . ( Hear , hear , and cheers . ) He would not further detain them from the business of the meeting , but would introduce to them Mr . John Peck , whobad been appointed to move a resolution . Mr . Peck was received with loud cheers . He ongratulated himself , the Chairman , and his brother Chartists , upon having come , for the first time , into possession of their own Hall . ( Cheers . ) It happened usually , and had always happened hitherto , that buildings such as that in which they were now assembled , and which were raised , supported , and upholden by the people , were occupied
for the use and service of all parties but the people . ( Hear , hear . ) The working people had stronger claims upon the use of tbat Hall than any other party , but till now their claims bad been always disregarded —( hear , hear , )—and even now , the right they were exercising to meet in their own Hall , was accompanied with what he could not understand otherwise than as something very nearly approaching to a contumelious slight . ( Hear , hear . ) That was the first time in the course of his experience , in whioh a meeting called by tbe Mayor had sot been opened by that functionary , and he thought that this circumstance required some better explanation than had been yet given of it . He was quite willing to admit that the Mayor might have
many engagementf ; , and he believed the meeting could not have desired to inflict upon him any inconvenience ; but he did think that respectful courtesy to the party to whom he professed to belong , —that gratitude fer services past , rendered by those to whose exertions he aud hiB fellow corporators owned their elevation , ought to have induced him not to forego iu this particulor instance the regular usage of the borough . ( Hear , hear , and cheers . ) If his avocations precluded him from continuing with them during the meeting , he might at least have come down and opened it . What might be his reason for this discourtesy it was not , of course , for him to say ; perhaps his Worship might have been affrighted by the caricatures of Chartist speakers drawn by the
venal press of the factions , and might have feared the compromising of his character and dignity by some incautious or intemperate language ; he trusted , however , that if this were bo , the result of the present meeting would convince him that his apprehensions bad been needless and tbat , as they were now upon their good behaviour—( cheers aud a laugh)—bound in some sort by the circumstances attending their occupation of that Hall , —every speaker who might be introduced to them would se « the necessity of exercising prudence , and selecting his words with caution , that they might bid effectual defiance to the spy brigade . He had been appointed to move two resolutions which he would nowr « ad to them : —
" Resolved . —1 st . That it is the opinion of thU meeting , that in consequence of tbe present corrupt and defective state of the representation of these Kingdoms in tbe Common ' s House of Parliament , and the entire failure of the so-called Reform Bill , an organic change i « necessary , or tbe country will be involved in one common ruin : —2 nd ., That in the opinion of this meeting , it is essential to the well-being of this realm , tbat the Commons House ot Parliament be elected annually by the free votes of all male subjects twentyone years of age and upwards , without reference to rank or property either in the voters or members to be elected . "
The reading ef the resolutions was followed by cries of * ' Hear , hear , " and applause . He was there to maintain the principles involved in those resolutions , and , in the terms of the requisition , to compl % in of the defective state of the representation of tbe people in the so-called Commons' House . There w < re many points in which that representation was glaringly defective . ( Hear , hear . ) The first of these was in the fact that many of those who were nominally , were not really , represented ; because , for want of the protection of the Ballot , many persons who held the elective franchise were unable to exercise it conscientiously , or in accordance with what they considered to be the interests of the country . ( Hear , hear , aud cheers . ) He
comp lained of the representation being defective , because the present system conferred upon the representative an undue tenure of his office . Ho contended that the Parliament which passed the Septennial Act , had no right to do so—that it was a stretch of legislative power beyond its due limits , fullv equal to that of the Loug Parliament which prolonged its sittings in defiance of constitutional usage for the term of fourteen years . The people claimed tbat they Bhould have Annual Parliaments for the squaring and settling up of their accountB with tfceir representatives . A tradesman who thould talk of settling accounts once in seven years would be accounted a disreputable shuffling fellow , and he knew not why the same epithets should not apply
to Legislators . ( Loud cheers and laughter . ) The people complained also , of the defectiveness of the representative system , inasmuch as it made the teat of fitness in ft representative te be not merit or intelligence , bnt property . This was little else , in his estimation but a bonus to the landed interest . It would be , in his opinion , equally as reasonable and just to require that a man should possess two ships as a qualification , as to require him to hold landed property to the amount of £ 300 a-year . ( Cheers , and laughter ) He maintained that the people had a right to select their representatives from amongst the poorest and the humblest , if these were honest and inte lligent , and that these were even more likely to be fit representatives , because more
intimately and practically acquainted with the wants and feelings and interests of the people . ( Long-continued cheering . ) The people complained also that the present state of representation was defective , because of its unequal distribution of its electoral privileges ; numbers of small towns , possessing few inhabitants , and comparatively little importance ia the country , had equally as many , and in some cases more representatives than other towns of vast magnitude , extensive population , and great influence . Of these several instances were named by tbe speaker amidst the cheers of the meeting . These were heavy matters of complaint against the present sjBtim of electoral representation , but there was one whioh very far outweighed them
all , and to this crowning grievance he would now direct attention . They complained of non-representation—( great cheering)—they complained that the damning brand of slavery was imprinted on their brows—they complained that they were subject to laws in the enacting of whioh they had no voice or power—that they were taxed for the upholding of a system which they disapproved , and by the operation of which their interests were sacrificed , and they were there to tell their rulers in a voioe of thunder , that they would bear these things no longer . ( Load and long continued cheering . ) They were there to demand that the artisan should bo no longer shut out from the pale of the constitution ;—( loud cheers );—that he should no longer be exoluded
from his fair share in the Government of that country whose wealth he created , and whose interests he was at all times called upon to defend . ( Cheers . ) They were there to demand tbat the pledges of the middle and upp « r classes , who obtained the power to vote by th * assistance of the labouring classes , should be now redeemed by the extension of that same power of voting to the labourers . ( Loud cheers . ) Who carried the Reform Bill ! Not the aristocracy ; not the middle classes . The people carried the Reform Bill fer the middle classes , add was i t now U be said tbat the middle classes would sot come forward to assist the working classes in carrying the Charter 1 the only measure which could redeem the country from its distresses , ftnd preserve the middle classes from th * ru » which mow Beemi to await them . ( Hear . ) If any class were entitled to be represented it was the poor ; representation was dtw to tlram « n the Koro Of
justice , for and fr the present mtem there w » 8 HO justice fyr the Working man . Let it not be said that the law was protection for him : for while 11 , 001 Acts of Parliament bad bem passed for the protection •/ the rich , ke woald defy ftay man . to say that ont had boea pasaod fer the proteatio * of the poor . lLoud cries of "hear , hear . " ) Aad why was this f It was tbe « fibct of 0 U 8 S legislatioa , by which all were represented exoepi those who were by every principle of justice and reason the nost entitled to it . ( Hear , and cheers . ) The working classes seed the franchise to protect thtir own interests , and why should they not have it ! ( Cheers . ) The speaker concluded by moving the resolutions . Mr . Sahuhl Heaiay , in seconding th * resolution ^ said he did so simply because he thought every man ought to have a voice in the making of those law * by which he was to be governed . It was not right that Jack should have all the shot , and the officers all the prise-money . ( Cheers ftid laughter . ) The

speaker said the Whigs had sacrificed tie interests of the country for their own selfish purposes : they bad confessed that the power was in the people , and they had been carried into power by the people , after promisin / t what they would do for them in return ; and , after all , the only measure they had given them was the finality Reform Bill , by which the people Were made worse off than they were before , and England , instead of being the envy of surrounding nations and the admiration of the world , had , under their rule , b « oom ^ ft bye-word and ft reproach .. ( Hear , and cheers . ) After alluding to the distress existing in the country , Mr . Healey concluded by seconding the resolutions . .
Mr . Wic . Websteb supported the resolutions , in . a short speech , which he concluded by exhorting the working men of Hull to keep from the publio hoases , and avoid intoxicating drink , by which tkey would prove to their rulers that they were worthy of the franchise , and of every other privilege that could be conferred upon them . Mr . G . W . Buhns , also supported the resolutions , the entire principle of whioh he admitted , but in a loDg rambling speech took occasion to make some remarks on the conduct of some parties , whom he denominated Chartist leaders , . without , however , naming any particular individual , to whom he alluded . He . spoke amidst some interruption , and the evident impatience of the whole meeting . Mr . West , the late West-Riding lecturer , who was present , also addressed the meeting in support
ot the resolution , and in reply to some observations whioh had fallen from Mr . Burns . Mr . West spoke for nearly an hour , in the most effective manner , delighting , not only the working classes , but the middle classes also who were present , by whom he was listened to attentively and loudly cheered throughout . The principles of the Charter were never more clearly explained , and a powerful effect was produced on the minds of all present . An outline of his speech , garbled as it must necessarily be , would not copvey to our readers its real worth , and to give it entire is beyond the limits of space at our command . The resolutions were then put to the meeting by the Chairman , after having been read by the Town Clerk , and every hand in the crowded assembly was held up in their favour—not a dissentient voico was heard .
The Rev . William Hill , Editor of the Northern Star , moved the second resolution , for the adoption of the petition . He read the National Petition at length , and concluded by moving that it ba the petition of the meeting . Mr . William Hornsby seconded the resolution , and after being supported in a few remarks by Mr . William Tate , the petition was unanimo'isly carried amidst tremendous cheering . Mr Daniel Malo . net moved , and Mr . Robebt Lundy seconded , the next resolution , whioh was as follows : — , " That this meeting pledges itself to an unceasing perseverance in every species of lawful and peaceable agitation for the principles embodied in the People's Charter until they be recognised as the law of the land . " The resolution was carried unanimously .
The petition was ordered to be laid at the Town Hall and other convenient places , for tbe signatures of the inhabitants . This boing the last resolution , the Chairman vacated the chair , which was taken by Mr . S . Healy , and , ob the motion of Mr . Peck , seconded by the Rav . W . Hill , thanks were voted to Mr . Jackson , for his unwearied exertions iu the cause of freedom , and his worthy conduot in the chair on that occasion . The motion was carried by acclamation . Mr . Jackson returned thanks ; and cheers having been given for the Charter , for Frost , Williams , aud Jones , and for the people , the meeting separated at a little after five o ' clock .
SOIREE AND BALL . That no part of the day might be lost , and that opportunity might be afforded to those whose engagements had precluded their attendance at the Town Hall , to toatit ' v their abidance in the principles asserted there by the town ' s voioe , arrangements had been made for a soiree and ball , at the Chartists ' -room , Freemason's Lodge , Mytonftate , where a most pleasing and well-pleased company spent a delightful evening . We have no official statement of the numbers , hut suppose that about 250 sat down to tea , which was of the best , and accompanied by an ample supply of all the etceteras requisite to elegance and comfort , got up by the
activity and kindliness of a Committee of Female Chartists , to whom no small credit is due for their share of the business . After a due discussion of the tea , toast , tarts , &e . the tables were " sided , " and Mr . Hill having been called to the chair , reminded them that , in the midst-of their rejoicings , they should remember always the Christian duties of patriotism and neighbourly love , for the exhibition of whioh he was happy to find that the Committee appointed to conduct the day ' s proceedings , had afforded them an opportunity . It had been stated in the London newspapers that on the occasion of the baptism of the Koyal Prince , the Queen would testify her sense of the recent manifestation of divine mercy on her behalf , by the extension of the royal pardon to such offenders as could be recommended to her for good conduct while enduring the punishment of their respective crimes in the
the dockyards or elsewhere . It had been thought that the people ought not to permit this opportunity to escape without bringing under her Majesty ' s notice the patriot convicts , Frost . Williams , and Jones ; and a memorial had therefore been prepared which would be now , he believed , submitted to them for adoption , praying that her Majesty would iucludo thosa injured and outraged patriots in the list of those who on this occasion might experience the royal favour . This announcement was received with great cheering . The memorial was moved , seconded , and suppotted in short but appropriate speeches , by Messrs . Webster , Lundy , and Jones . This done , the Chairman vacated , the musioians aaoended the platform , and healthful hilarity and peaceful merriment was the order of the day for the remainder of the night . The vocal amusements , under the excellent management of Mr . Webster , were divided into two parts , of which the f&Uomne is » programme ;—
PART I . Song , " The Outlaw , " Mr . Hodgson . Recitation , " Tinker and Glazier , " Mr . Webster . Song , ' I remember , " Mr . Hodgson . Recitation , " Will Clewline , " By a Stranger , Song , " Hail to the Tyrol , " Mr . Hodgson . PART II . Song , " The White Squall , " Mr . Hodgson . Song , " Philadelphia Lawyer . " Mr . West . Song , " Kathleen O'Meore , " most beautifully sung by a
Lady . Recitation , " Mario Bizzuia , " Mr . Web&ter . Song , "Scarlett Flower , " Mr . Hodgson . The songs and recitations gave great satisfaction to the company , and were very heartily cheered , they were interspersed with a variety of dances , quadrilles , country dances , waltzes , & . c , so as to please all the tastes and capabilities of the parties . The amusements were continued to a late hour , aud the company separated , every one very highly delighted . Thus ended what may justly and properly be termed a high day in Hull for Chartism .

There is more confidence shown in the trade ; and although tht business passing in old foreign wheat continues extremely limited , yet the quotations are fully main
tamed when sales are made . for spring con there has scarcely been an inquiry during the week Therehas been a slower demand for both rape and linseed , and the top quotations are with difficulty made , even for the best qualities ; while secondarj runs ar * difficult to quit . Linseed cake in fair demand , and at rather improving prices . Rape caki lower and but little doing . Bones are taken as they arrive , at full prices . For to day ' s market the sho * of farmer ' s wheat , although not large , is more abundant than last—the condition generally very
indifferent—low qualities are bad to quit , but any paroelt that are in good or decent condition are taken at fully last week ' s prices . More firmness is Bhown bj holders of old foreign , and the best parcels are hell at rather improved rates . Oats and beans are botA dull , and lower prices would have to be taken could sales to any extent be ' made , The Tew parcels of really fine malting barley that are offering being fully last week ' s prices , and are sought after by our town maltsters ; secondary qualities , of which the great bulk offering consists , are almost Hns * l& able .

A tolerable fair business has been transacted in free foreign Wheat ; in addition to moderate sales to the town ' s sullen and dealers , severar purchases have been made for shipment to Ireland , and for the general runs tbd full prices quoted on this day week have been paid , whilst for choice qualities these have in some in *
stances been rather exceeded . Flour has met onlj limited sale at 35 s to 36 s 6 d per barrel for United States , 35 a to 33 s for Canadian . Home manufao > ture has been neglected , a remark applicable also ( 9 Irish new Wheat . Oats must be noted id to Id pet bushel cheaper , at which reduction a few parcels have gone off the market .

London Shithfield Mabbbt , Mondat , Dec . 6 .-On the Monday immediately preceding the great Christmas market , which will be held on the 13 ft , Jarge arrivals of beasts are usually anticipated ; bat those fresh np to-day , were , en the whole , limited for the time of year , though of considerably improred quality , especially as relates to the Devons , Hen * fords , and Scots , the two former rival breeds being again in the ascendant , much to the credit of their owners . The prevaiiing unfavourable weather for slaughtering , and most of the salesmen aiming »* higher currencies , caused the beef trade to be much
less than might have been expected . We noted uot the slightest variation from the rates of hst week , and a good clearance was readily effected . There was only a small show of sheep , tbe best of which sold from 4 sl 0 d to 53 per 81 b ; but the middling and inferior qualities ( which formed the bulk of the receipts ) many of them being extremely lame , were slow in sale at barely stationary eurreacies . From Scotland about 60 Scots and 100 sheep came to hand in fair condition . In calves scardj anything was passing , but the late advance was maintained . Pigs were quite as dear , with a readj inquiry .
London Cobn Exchange Mondat , Dec . 6 m-There was a very limited supply of Wheat from Essex , Kent , and Suffolk this morning , a modera te quantity of Barley and Beana , but that of Feu was rather large , whilst the fresh arrivals of Otis were only limited , as well English and Scotch , U iriBh . The imports of foreign : Grain hare tof limited since this day se'nnjght , and those moetij from the Mediterranean and Black 8 ea 3 : the boisteroub state of the weather , and the wind being at tta same time contrary , having prevented any arrivals from the north of Europe . Rain , more or less , fell on every day during the past week , and this
mowing is wet . There was a fair demand for good dff samples of English Wheat , at something over the rates of this day se ' nnight , but no improvemen t , the value of damp aud ordinary samples . * fine old foreign a steady demand existed at abont la per quarter above last Monday ' s currency .
