      THE CONFERENCE . —ORGANIZATION . ' TO THE JEDITOR OF THE NORTHERN ^ STAR . SIR ., —As the general opinion appears to be in favouT of a Conference ! as the first step to re-organ z * tion , it is necessary that some definite means should bo adopted to enable us to come to a decision , and also to fix the time and place of holding it , so that preparations may be made , and more undivided attention given to the various plans of Organization which have been , or may be proposed . I do not see how this can be ascertained without the

      Newtowb bt Pskcatklamd . —A public taeeting of the Colliers of this plioe , Huntl » w , and Painstone , was held on Tuesday list , in the School-honse , Mr . Mitchison in the chair . The meeting was addressed by Messrs . Hammond and Daniells , delegates from the Miner ' s Association of Great Britain and Ireland ; after which it was unanimously agreed by the meet * ing thai fcbej join the said society . Edmondsiowh , kkab MussEtBTJEGH . —A public meeting of the Colliers of this district was held on Wednesday last , in su empty baUding . Mr . Thos . Dunlop was called to the chair , who after opening the meeting , introduced Mr . W ; m . Daniells , -who addressed the meeting at great length on the injustice and oppression constantly practiced npon i 5 ollierB both in Eagland and Scotland . This he attribnted to their being disunited , and urged them in a strain of vivid eloquence to Join their . Englifib . brethren ,

      who vrere nobly struggling to raise themselves from that state of serfdom , to which the tyranny of the coal kings had forced them . Heathen took up the laws of the Miner ' s Association ^ and commented upon them consecutively as he read them to the meeting , and retired , having evidently made a great impression . Mr . Hammond next addressed the meeting , and delivered a ^ beautiful allegory on the various classes in the nation , and depicted in truthful colours the various tricks resorted to in order to keep working men in slavery . This had a very good effect . A many had come to this meeting filled with prejudice ; bnt these two addresses so far changed the appearancp of things , that a resolution was pui to the meeting pledging themselves to join the Miners Association , which was carried without one dissentient . One hundred cards ; were taken out before the meeting broke up . Hurra for onion ! the gallant bark sails proudly on . ;

      Edgehkad bt Datkeith . —A meeUug of the Colliers of this locality was hoiden on Thursday last , in the room of the Panp Inn , which was filled to the door . Mr . Peter Brown was called to iihe chair . The meeting was addressed at very great length by Mr . Wm . Daniell 3 , on the objects and Ibws of the Miner's Association , the benefits of union , and the infamous nature of Collier bondB , &o . He } was loudly and repeatedly cheered . Mr . Wm . Hammond followed in a short speech , -when a resolution was passtd in favour of joining the Collier ' s Association .

      Dalkieth . CoiiiKBS * Delegate Meeting . —A delegate meeting of the Colliers of Mid-Lothian was hoiden on Saturday last , Mr . James Burns in tho chair . Mr . Win . Daniells secretary . ; A large ledger was purchased for the district , and contribution and enrolment books for the use of the different collieries , and things put in a fair train to conduct the business of the district in a proper manner . The following resolutions were then passed : —*' jThat it is thB opinion « f tMa meeting that all men vrhomay take an active part in this union , and who shall be injured for so doing by the masters , ought in that case to be stood by and supported by the men ; but this

      shall not extend to any man vrbo shall use insulting or abusive language to his emplover . " That Mr . David Moffit be treasurer , pro . tern . " " That the next delegate meeting be hoiden this , day week : and a general meeting of the Colliers of Mid and East Lothian on Saturday , August 12 th , but that the different coal works may fix opon any other day , should they see proper , and that Messrs . Daniells and Hammond be requested to attend . " After paying off bills for printing , books , stamps , & . o ., there was left a balance in the treasurer ' s hand of 12 s . The meeting broke up in the highest spirits , wishing prosperity to the cause in which they axe engaged .

      Mikebs * Delegate Meeting . —The delegates of the Miners' Association of Great Britain , who met at the Three Tuns , Manor Chare , Sewcastle-upon-Tyne , on Monday , July 24 th , met again by adjourament on Tuesday morning , at nine o'clock . Mr . Wakinshaw having taken the chair , the Secretary read the minates of the previous day's proceedings , whick were confirmed . The correspondence was then read . It commenced with a letter from Mr . Roberts , of Bath , in reply to one sent to hin ? by order of the Society . After the subject of the letter had been maturely considered , it was agreed that a Committee should be empowered to make the neces sary arrangements with Mr . Roberts , and that he be respectfully invited to be present at the next

      meeting of delegates . The next letter was from Mr . Daniells , of Lasswade , in which ha gave a very flattering account of the prospects of : the Society in that quarter , notwithstanding the attempts of the masters to excite a spirit of jealousy in the minds of the men , so as to prevent them from joining in union ; yet moat of the meetings he had attended lately had pledged themselves to become members forthwith . Another letter was read } from the same district of Scotland from Mr . Hammond ; and one from Mr . Bropby , stating ^ the success he had met with in expounding the pnnc pies of union amongst the coal-miners of Camberlaxtd , which was highly gratifying . Letters -were IViewiw Tead from the

      lecturers sent to Yorkshire , Lancashire , Staffordshire , Derbyshire , fcc &c , giving glorious accounts of their success throughout their different routes ? and each requesting large qaantities of cards and rules , as the men were very anxious to be furnished with their cards and copies of the rules . The letter from Staffordshire contradicted the report circulated through the newspapers that the miners in that quarter had struck work . ( Query—rMay not this ** Beport" be an attempt , on the part of the enemy , to excite the miners to a Pbkmatube Strike ! Beware , fellow-slaves , of the snares that are set to entrap you !) ' Amongst several other letters read , was one from Mr . Erobleum , Berwick , stating the schemes which the masters and tbiir tools there

      resort to , to prevent the men from entering the Society . They get meetings of the men , 8 hew them the folly of forming a Union ; speak largely upon the evil effectsof union amongst working men ; andlatterly attempt to arouse the worst feelings of the unsuspecting miners againBt that which is their best interest . Mr . Embleton attended one of those meetings proved the necessity of onion amongst the ainers , showed what would be its ultimate effect , and fo far convinced the men of the fallacy of the position taken by the " minions" who had congregated them that they all joined the society before they parted . A delegate proposed a resolution respecting tn * e law fund . After tbe snbject was discussed , it waB agreed that it be held in abeyance , until the arrangements were made with a solicitor . A long discussion took place respecting some grievances which the men of the Auckland districts had to complain of . A resolution was adopted that they should dear 33 . for each

      day they work . The Executive then entered the room with a copy of the letter which they Were instructed to Eend to Mr . Roberts , which was read and adopted . A delegate proposed— ' * That an opportunity be given to sueh off-handed men and others employed at the different collieries in Northumberland and Durham , as may be disposed to do so , to join the society , upon pacing the usual amount of entrance money ; and that such of them as will not embrace this opportunity on or before the 24 th of August next , will not be admitted members withoat paying ten shfllings entrance money each . "—Carried . And it was agreed that one thousand bills , announcing this resolution , be printed and posted in conspicuous places at each colliery . A delegate proposed that the Execntive be instructed to draw up a copy of a bond for the pitmen , to subscribe for the ensuing year , and that the same be ready to be submitted to delegates at their next meeting . Tho meeting then adjourned until Wednesday morning , at nine o ' clock .

      Wh » -esdat MoBioss . —The delegates met this mominSi at nine o ' clock , Mr . Wakinshaw in the chair . The minutes of the -previous day were read and confirmed , and the following resolutions agreed to , after bting ably discussed , some of tLem at very fi ^ -eat length : — " That each lecturer be required to giv ^ sn account of hia labouTB to the Secretary .

      Wednesdat Afteskoos Sitting . —The delegates met at two o ' clock . Mr . Wood in the chair . The minutes of the morning ' s sitting ~ were read and confirmed . The Secretary read some letters from Scotland and from Yorkshire , wherein they wished to know whether tbry would be required to remit their funds to the General Treasurer in Newcastle , ot they should be kept in the district in which they were collected . After the snbject had been deliberated and discussed pro and con , it was agreed that they be iequirea * e remit the price of the « ards and rules only , the rest to be at their own disposal .

      T . . ' ' 1 - Gbeat Mektiwg of Coal Minees on Kebsal Motm .-rThe coal miners of this county held a meeting tin Kersal Moor- on Monday last , July 31 st , 1843 , to reoeiv 8 a deputation froin the Coal Miner ' s Association of Great Britain . The attendance was very numerous , when vre consider the shortness of the notice , and the disorganised state of Lancashire arisir jer from the League plot of last year . There was also another circumstance which prevented many : from being present ; there are two moors in this district , the one called Kersal Moor and the otherfKerdey Moor ; and great numbers went to the latter nlace , and were disappointed . At twelve o ' clock , ] the time appointed for the meeting , Mr . John Latmase , a veteran coal miner , a man universally betoyed by bia fellow workmen in the

      neighbourhood in which he resides , waa unanimously called to the chair . He opened the business of the meetingj > y a neat and appropriate speech , in wfeich he depicted m glowing colours the awful state of the miners of this district , and warned his fellow workmen against the Bubtle means that were now being resorted to by a certain party in order to try if they -could not make the coal miners tools in their hands , to produce another " outbreak" in favour of their own petty measures . He trusted that they would watch these parties , and not allow themselves to be cajoled into a premature strike , or into any strike at ! all , until they were able successfully to combat the mighty power that was aroused against them b y > the great capital which had been wrung from their labour .

      The meeting was then addressed by Messrs . Swallow , Thompson , and Davies , agents of the Association , who in a clear and simple manner laid down the plans and objects of the Association . A working miner moved the following resolution , — ¦ " That ; in the opinion of the meeting the coal miners of Lancashire are not in receipt of sufficient wagt-s for their labour to providefor their families the commonest necessaries of life . " The resolution was seconded in a neat speech by another working miner , and carried unanimously . We omit the names of the working-men for very obvious reasons . Another miner moved the following— " That we , the miners of Lancashire , do immediately join the Miners' Association of Great Britain , and call upon our brethren who are nol present to unite with as in adopting every legal means to redress our grievances and remove the present burdens which press so heavily / upon us . "

      The Chairman put it to the meeting when it was carried without a dissentient . The thanks of of the meeting were given to the chairman , who responded in a very humourous manner , in whi' -h the policemen , whowere present in disguise , came in for their share . The meeting was then dissolved . Meeting ot Delegates . —As soon as the out-door meeting was over , a meeting of delegates assembled in the large room , Brown-street , Manchester . There were about one hundred delegates present , representing the principal coal works in Lancashire , viz . from iDukinfield ; Ashton-vrndeT-Lyne ; Oldham , Bradford , nearManchester ; Bregment ; Little Levor ; CromptoniFieldjLeJlaushaw ; Danse ; Lever ; Atkin ; Kawe's Fagg , near Bolton ; Little Bolton ; Ton « ue Colliery , Little Bolton ; Bents ; Little Lever ; Peel CoDieryj Hilton ; New House , Bolton ; Halshaw Moor , Little Bolton ; Jenny Colliery ; Ratcliife Bridge ; Chorley ; Ratoliffe ; Lane Ends ; Aspul ; Wigan , &o . &e .

      Mr . D . ; Thompson was called upon to preside . After the delegates had given in their credentials , the following resolutions were passed : — " That Mr . Wm . Dixon , of Manchester , be the treasurer until the next delegate meeting / ' Oa this motion being carried , Mr . Dixon said that he hoped his friends would see the propriety of providing office-bearers out of their ovrn association . He was not connected with tb . fi coal-mining business at present ; and he , therefore , hopes that they would chose a man from amongst themselves at the next delegate meeting . As a miner by trade , he should ever consider it to be his duty to render them every assistance in his power to ameliorate their condition . . It was then agreed

      " That a public meeting be held at Pendlebury , on Monday , August 14 , chair to be taken at ten o ' clock in the forenoon ; and , after it a delegate meeting in the large room of the Wheat Sheaf Inn , in Pendlebury . " "That Mr . Swallow go into the Bolton District until the delegate meeting . " " That Mr . Thompson -go into the Wigan District as 6 oon as he has concluded his engagements at Dukinfield , « fce , " " That Mr ; Dixon be authorised to pay Mr . Swallow and Mr .-Tbompson their wages for the past weekj and also up to the next delegate meeting , with power to pay any- bills that may be brought against the association betwixt now and that time . " " That the resolutions be sent to the Norltiern Slar newspaper for insertion . " The thanks of the meeting was then given to the chairman , and the meeting separated .

      paupers to fall back upon , whom they could compel ; to work si aix shillings per w ^ ek . They would [ then have an independent population . The man Jwould say , *¦ Well , 1 don't like farming ; bat I earn ten shillings a-day at it ; if you will give me that , 3 will work for you / ' This was not the object those men had in view , who had jumped from clogs to boots ; from the cellar to the mansion ; from the mansion to the palace ; and who were now looking out for principalities ; and all this , too , achieved tmder a " restricted trade" I Suppose , aad it was hot improbable , thai a manufacturer bad realized £ 100 , 000 by the labour of one hundred hands in ten years , he ; would then retire , and leave his poor labourers to starve—( hear ) . Was that a system of justice ? Suppose , like the parson ,

      he only retained 1-lOth , he would tnen have the lion ' s share— £ 10 , 000 ); and the other £ 90 , 000 would enable those who had earned him his wealth , also to retire into honourable idleness . The manufacturers complained of trade when they did not make the enormous per centage tney _ formerly did . If they did not gain so much this year aa they did the fprmer year , they asserted theirs to be a " losing tjrade . " Mr . O'Connor then clearly shewed that the true interest of the shopkeeper was bound up in the prosperity of the working man . It was asserted that t | ie Charter would unsettle everything ; that there would be no security for property . Those who raised that cry meant there would be no security for plunder . They did not want to divide the property

      of their oppressors ; they only wanted security fot their labour . The Marquis of Westminster asserted that he was the worst used man in the Empire , because he had to pay £ 12 , 000 income tax . He did not wish that meeting : any particular harm ; but he heartily wished that every one of them could make the same complaint .. That was a specimen of the loyalty of the aristocrats . Take away from the Archbishop of Canterbury his revenue , and his loyalty would fly off ipa balloon . Take away from the clergy their tithes ; leave them the churches , beautify them in every way , let them tread upon velvet and be attended by angels : but if the tithes were gone , away too would go their loyalty . It was the same with the " ; Freo Traders "—refuse them

      cheap corn , and all their loyalty evaporated . They talked about »• Free Trade , " but they knew no more about it than an Irish pig knows about geometry . Every increase of trade had been followed by a reduction of wage ? , and if there was a demand for ten times the amount of goods now manufactured , in ten years time there would be a supply ten times exceeding the demand ; He was the Teal corn law repealer . The League were but half repealers ; they only wanted laboHr subjected to their control , and to constitute corn as another medium of exchange . Ifjthey had tho Charter they would repeal the corn Javva on the morrow ; for they knew that the Land would supply with food three times the present population . The law of primogeniture now contracted

      the supply ; the whole land going to the eldest Boh . Thence arose the necessity for new churches , police commissions , poor law commissions , sinecure ? , places , and an Income Tax , toi support the youugor brothers . He was right glad of tho Income Tax , and was sorry that it was not 10 per cent . The working man had to pay in indirect taxation , fifteen shillings out of every poand ; but no sooner had the middle class got three and half per cent , on their surplus wealth , than the country was threatened with revolution . Peel had offered the ironmasters a grant of ; £ 60 , 000 ; or to get up an Emigration Fund . They were all a day after the fair ! Government bad sent a Commission into Wales , consisting of a Bow-street officer , to inquire

      into the grievancea of the people . It was like locking up the stable when the horse was stolen . If every sectional grievauqe was redressed , it would be ; the worse for the working man . If Peel had given £ 50 , 000 to the jr ' onina&ters , who would have had to pay it , but the M ^ orking men ? If those who were now bidding for their support , were to buy thorn to-morrow , they would reap no benefit . If Tom Attwood was to get his £ 1 notes , what would they avail them 1 They had been living in paper houses too long ! Every bmzj had shaken them into convulsions , and they wanted no more flimsies . It mattered not who was prime minister ; under the present system he could not do justice to the landlord without injuring the clergy ; he could not assist

      the manufacturer without destroying the agriculturist ; he could do neither , unless he went to tho source , to the bottom of the well at once . It was useless to knbek down one fortress ; they must 6 torm the citadel . They were not advocates of physical force . They did not want , as Baton Ilolfc said , to " take the Tower with a rusty pistol . " Noibing woald give Sir U . Peel , the landlords , or the League , so much joy aa a Chartist outbreak ! Such an emeute would boon cause them to sink their sectional grievances , and havo a pop at the Chartists . They would soon forget all minor differences in the endeavour to destroy the hydra of popular demand . But the Chartists wero too strong in moral strength to destroy themselves by any tiolont measures . They needed

      only union and perseverance ; and fur all to work as ho did . Mr . G'Covmor then gave an account of his meetings in Wilts and Somerset , referriug to his accident ; and also comruentcd upon the Marylobono inciting as triumphant evidence of their power . Tiie Marylebone meeting thus proved that his labour had not been m vain . Etery exertion had been used to set his countrymen atramst him , but the attempt was vain . Ho had h < aped coa ^ s oj firo upon the heads of his enunies , by vi paying ; good for evil . He . knew the day would come when justice would be done him . Through good and evil report he had stuok to his country . Was it to be endured that private jealousies should injure their country ? He was proud , of the reception Father Mat hew had met with . The English people

      ' did not stop to enquire whether he was an " Irish " Priest , or a "Saxon" Parson , but hastened to do him honour . Mr . O'Connor then ably dwelt on the subject of Irish Repeal , and showed that if " a Parliament" was all they wanted , they might have the English ; for nothing but Irish business was now transacted in it , unless it was now and then a turnpike or a railroad bill .. By-and-bye , he supposed , Rebecca would be stepping in for her share . When he was commissioned ten years ago by the Marylebone Association to go on a tour through the country , he asserted at Stockport that he would sell the people by auction . He asserted the same now ; but no one had bid fairly yet . Peel would soon be bidding Household Suffrage ; Russell would bid Universal

      Suffrago , and the lot would be knocked down . Peel would say he had bid too ; and the lot would have to be put up again . Poel would theu give Annual Parliaments into the bargain ; Russell would throw in the Ballot ; Peel would give Payment of Members ; Russell no Property Qualification ; Peel would then throw in tho whole Charter , and the lot would be knocked down to him— ( groat cheering ) . He would sell them all tomorrow , neck and crop , at that price ; but it was scarcely worth his while to sell thorn for £ 901 i He had refused all other offers ; he refused even tho escape from persecution and : privation . Ho had seen tho League bidding high Jor the people . He had also seeu tnafc Sturge ' s Reform would havo much support among the

      electoral body ; and he knew that if a political man ; watched his opportunity , there were times when he might take a section with him . But he had never allowed tho weakness of a moment to havo any influence over him , but had remained firm to the Charter , woll knowing that if they , abandoned one portion they would soon be compelled to abandon tho whole ; and the agitation would become an object for scorn aud derision . He was glad they did not get iho Charter at the time of the Reform Bill . They were then not politically educated enough to have fenced it well with the proper details . All nations wero rushiag forward into one great system of brotherhood . Mind was pushing forward io combine with mind . Steam and

      cheap postage had done much in producing that result . They could now shake hands with America , and kiss France . The whole political world was on the eve of a convulsion . The rumbling of the mental earthquake rould be distinctly heard , and ho trusted that | out of chaos and confusion , peace , and prosperity would arise . Mr . O'Connor then alluded to the cruelties inflicted by the manufacturers npon the children and others in their employ ; shewed tho manner in which the press had houndsd on the Government against him ; and concluded by informjtag j thera that he had entered an action agaiusfc the Times-tor libel , which would be tried by a Surroy jury ; on the following Monday . He also urged upon them the necessity of perseverance and Organtzition . A Conference would be soon hoiden at Birmingham , land ! ho trusted they would commence from that and successful contestId mattered

      period a new a . not whether they had a Whig or a Tory Government . They had only to be sufficiently * powerful ant ! the Charter wguIu be granted them . Mr . O'Connor , during the whole of his address , was loudly cheered ; aud . ' at its conclusion a lengthy resolution was moved by Mr . Shaw , and seconded by Dr . jBowkett , thanking him for his past services , and pledging the meeting to unite for the Charter , which was carried by acclamation . Mr . O'Connor briefly replied , after which Dr . Bowkctt addressed the audience on tho subject of their power , by cooperatioD , to secure freehold property , and referred theni to a pamphlet he had written on that subject , which was published by Mr . Cleave . Mr . Sherrard moved , and Dr . Bowkett seconded , a vote of thanks to the Chairman , who made a suitable reply , aud the meeting dispersed . Many of the middle classes were present , and appeared much interested witlt ^ the lecture .

      Malton Cork Market , July 29 . — -At this day ' s market we had but little doing in the trade ; the weather having set in wet and cold , increased the confidence of the farmers , who would not submit to any reduction in price , which caused the millers to keep aloof from making purchases * The prices ranged as follows—Wheat 68 * t « 723 . per qr .

      FEARGUS O'CONNOR , ESQ . IN THE TOWER HAMLETS . Mr . O'Connor lectured on Tuesday evening last , at Hemmingway ' fi Saloon , Milo End Road . The charge for admission was 2 d . in the bod ; of ' the saloon , and 6 d . on the platform . The attendance was very respectable , and would have been larger but for a mistake in the announcement in last week ' a Star , Bermondsey being substituted for Mile Ead . Shortly after eight o ' clock , Mr . Frazier was called to tho chair , and in a brief and bumoreus address introduced

      Mr . O Connor , who -was received with rapturous applause . He commenced by apologising for the mistake inj the Star , and for prerioas disappointments ; and pledged himself to be with them on the ensuing Monday , and deliver a discourse upon the text he should that evening giva them . The Chairman had alluded to persons who were very brave in his ab ? enoe , and pretended to know more of bis movements than be did himself . He had previously been accused of being " a spy in the pay of the Whigs , " and also of being " a tool in Ihe pay of the Tories" ; but now he had descended so low in the market as to be * a tool in the hands of a single individual" : he was now , he understood , accused of accepting a bribe of £ 90 from the Duke of

      Buckingham ! 2 Ho did not doubt but that £ 90 might be a consideration to " a needy adventurer ; " but he knew it would go but a very email way in settiisg bis political balance-sheet . He noticed this rumour , because the character of a political man was always open to suspicion ; and he challenged the party who asserted that calumny , and who also asserted that he had proofs to substantiate it , to meet him before any public audience ; and he would defy him to show that . he bad ^ verreceived id . in any shape , &a " pay" or u bribe" for political service in" ** consideration , " from man , woman , or child . If the principles advocated by his opponents were good , they would stand withont being built upon the ruins of his ( O'Connor ' s ) fame . He did not assert that Mr . Cobden lived upon

      the subscriptions of tbe people ; or that Mr . Bright pnrcbased bis election for Durham bj bribing the electors with the people ' s money . His principles did not need such support . He had always asserted that if a man devoted his time to the service of the people , ho deserved to be remunerated for it ; and it was hard indeed , that because ho spent his own money in the service of the people , that all the wrath should be poured out on him ; that O'Connor should be the noun adjective to support principles which would not stand by themselves 2 England was on the eve of a great change ; a change which it had become impossible much longer to avert His object was to render ihat change beneficial to the people , by marshalling -public opinion , and bringing

      it to bear on the source of all their grievances . Formerly their political leaders marshalled public opinion only upon sectional grievances ; and when they had raised an excitement , directed it upon that grievance which bore peculiarly upon themselves . The manufacturer endeavoured to marshall public opinion against the agriculturist ; the church , of Scotland auitatore , upon a new road to heaven ; the church of England upon destroying a few Bishops to make room for more Rectors ; in Wales , the sectional grievance was tho erection of toll-bars . Now he endeavoured to prevent agitation for these sectional measures . The people had nothing to do with them ; but they had everything to do with the proper remuneration for labour . Lahour was the

      source from which all wealth sprung . Their enemies were opposed to the rights of labour ; and by distracting and dividing the working men , they had driven them ; from the cottage to the cellar . They were nou > bidding high for the people ; and if they had not such fiery offers , and so much gasconade , as in the days of Charles Fox or of Attwood , in 1831 , it was because the people now looked for the fulfilment of pledges made . Public opinion was now too sound to ignite with a single match . If , as was asserted , the present Government was the reflex of public opinion , then it was the more necessary that public opinion should ba marshalled to run iu one great stream that all the shoals might be removed and destroyed . They were told that the people

      were not prepared for a change . In the opinion of these philosophers , -whenever tbe people advanced , then were they the most ignorant . At the time of the ReformfBill , they were " an intelligent people' '; but when they wished to advance further , they suddenly became "degraded" and "ignorant . " Mr . O'Connor then allnded to Bright ' s election for Durham , which the League boasted was a great reaction in their favour . The Chartists cared hut little about the electoral body . If they waited until the eleotoral body ensured them the Charter , it wertd not be in their lives , nor yet in the lives of their grand *

      children . The noa-electors had formerly a court ot appeal in the House of Commons . Their petitions constituted thiB appeal ; bnt now they had no longer that court . Their petitions of 1 , 500 , 000 , « f 2 , 600 , 001 , and of 3 , 500 , 000 had been disregarded ; and they looked for substantive representation as their only remedy . Mr . O'Connor next dwelt ' on the question of "Free Trade , " and showed that the object of that agitation was to enable the manufactures to undersell the slaves ©! the wholeworld . If they really sought for a principle to benefit the working man , they would locate him upon the Land , and render him independent : of the foreigner for his breakfast or his supper . They well knew that if they did ihat , they would n longer have a starving , a lounging army of

      A Mail Coach on Firs , —Between three and four o'clock on Friday morning , as the Yeovil mail coach was proceeding at a rapid rate near Andover , on its way to the ierminus of the Southampton railroad , great alarmjwas created among the passengers by the sudden outcry of the coach being on fire . The coachman instantly stopped the horses , and on the guard aligfctinW he discovered that the wheels of the vehicle had actually ignited , in coneequence of their not having been properly greased before

      starting , and the velocity with which the coach was proceeding . The fire ; , however , was extinguished , and the damage confined to the wheels , The guard was anxious for the icoach to continue its journey on account of the mail bags , &o ,, bat the coachman vary properly saidlhe would not endanger the livea of ihe passengers by ] bo doing . The mail was , therefore , forwarded by another conveyance , but nearly an hoar elapsed before the passengers were enabled to proceed towards their destination .
