      i PEEL'S TARIFF OUTDONE ! THE COFFEE TAX REPEALED ! MESSRS . CROW AND TYRELL beg to call the attention of the Chartist Public to the BEVERAGE prepared by them , as a Cheap and Wholesome substitute for Taxed Coffee . Its' nutritious qualities are equalled by none in the Market ; while its mode of Preparation renders it vastly superior to the Trash offered for Sale by those who regard not the health of the Consumer . As a means of supporting the " Executive Committee of the National Charter Association , " and as a means of crippling the Governmental Exchequer , it may be made a ready and powerful weapon in the hands of tho Sons of Toil . A single Trial will prove its superiority over other Preparations of like pretensions . Prepared and Sold by the Proprietors , 81 , Belgrave Gate , Leicester . The Proprietors have great pleasure in announcing that Mr . J . HOBSON , Publisher of the Northern Star , has become General Wholesale Agent for the Chabtist Bbeakfast Powdeb , for the District of Yorkshire . He has now a large quantity in Stock , both at Leeds and at Huddersfield , from which he is authorised to supply the Associations and other Retail Vendors at the same Prices as the Proprietors themselves .

" Northern Star Offioe , Leeds , March 17 th , 1842 ., Cf p entlemen , —You will oblige by forwarding , at IT your earliest convenience , the same quantity of PARR'S LIFE PILLS as last sent . While I am writing I cannot refrain from communicating the fluttering intelligence of the groat good your pills are doing in Leeds and its neighbourhood . It is dearly a great error to find fault with a medicine merely because it is a patent one ; and more especially since its use has contributed so largely to the public health . The fact is , however , predjudice is fast giving way , as it always must where the pills are tried . A few cases in point may serve to confirm and illustrate what I have asserted .

      TO THE EDITOa OF THE NORTHERN STAB . Sia —Were it not to communicate news that otber individuals durst not , through feat of being disadvantiged in employ , I would not write " so often .

Any man who is l . ot thus bound is liable to be discharged any hoar his master shall think to £ x upon . No man can ba bound oniy on the ibcs : degrading terms ; that is , he must esnsrnt to be * -wilting giave .

      The few Chartists here are of the nght sort . I am sare , sir , yon could not bear to see the sympathetic tears shed by the honest , but discerning poor of this , peace on account of the ill treatment that " oar friend Feargn * " ( to use their own ¦ word * , ) " has met with from wicked sham-radicals . '" The people here are of that caste who say littla but ihink much . Nona of them can yet make public speeches , hat they try thsir Etrengta in the following msnntr : —Upon acy day of amassment ( and they haTe a few ; one of them will say , " I can nuLke no speech , but all those who aro in favour of the ¦ Caaxter follow me to ths other aide of the road ; " and believe me the Cnarter has the majority .

      I have lectured a few times here . A council is formed . ; and when they have funds sufficient they will Bind for cards , and so on , which will be in a week or two , so that you see I have don 8 seme good .

      next door to one another , and on Sunday afternoon , during divine service , whilst all the psrson 3 residing in the house adjoining his own were at church , he enticed his wire , who is pregnant , to the brink of a well in the back part of the premises , and , watching Ms opportunity , when the unfortunate womm ' s atteLiiori was engaged , he seized her suddenly , and threw her headforemost into the well , which is abont ten or twelve feet deep . In the fail the poor creature ' s htod came upwards , and , as there was not more than fire feet of water in the well , she vras enabled to keep her mouth above tho sur f ace .

He tried to get Into the room , but not succeeding , made his escape . When the monster ' s father-in-law returned from church the circumstances became known , and the magisterial authorities having been made acquainted with them , the poor woman ' s deposition was taken down , and a warrant issnej for the app'ehension of the arisoner , who is supposed to have come to London .
