' 1,, THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 28, 1866. REFORM DIMING& MB. BRIGHT AT MANCHESTER. MANCHESTER, TVIZDAY Emma. This afternoon a conference of reformers from various distelots in Lancuhire was held in the drawing -1110111 at the Free Trade Hall, to tionsibir the best mama to be adopted ter assisting to c.rry the government reform bill. The meeting was inflaeotially &tumid Yr. WA ~aareesired with mach enthusiasm Mr. OZOIGI IVlceos presided, and said there were two old oonst tetanal ways of proceeding, the one being by public meet:nipi and the other by petitions. He suggested ant before the 12th of April every borough and town in Lancashire should have its meeting and petition. Mr. TnomiAnow. of Bohol), moved a resolution urging am reformers that steps should at ones be taken foe hold fog meetings, sad to petition in all the principal towns in Lsneeshire. Yr. °nowt HADFIZLD, ALP., seconded the motion, and Reid the bloodier victories won at Manchester wese of rerid-wide importance. The great guns (subscriptions) Ilver used to fire for victory in the free-trade contest had • mighty indorses, and he suggested that the eases should sr starve for want of fads. (Cheats.) It was a pity men wire not sometimes made of good Sheffield steel, and he Regretted that Mr. Bright was of a oonstitation that pre eluded the possibility of his taking a more active pert is the present movement. As it warn, they ought to save him es Ranh av poseible„ because he was wanted for a more bytoriant service, where it would he best rendered. Mr. WHITWORTH, LP., urged reformers to nay rotted tie governmest and their old friend, Mr. Bright, whenever before possessed the influent* he did now. (Cheers.) A number of gentlemen from various towns supported the motion, and it was candid unanimously. At the riselosio• of the burner, _ lit. BRIO" who rose amidst load and repealed sheer keg, addruesd the snesting as follows :—Your chairman bee said very truly that I em here accidentally, for I did not know till by pure accident last evening that soy meeting ani to be held here to-day. I walked in with Yr. Wil lem wit► a riser of toeing whether there wee any disposal( a Se move a little fester on the reform quotas in the osnety, end from what I have seat I don't feel in the slightest degree disappointed. The question of reform at Shil moment is is a ver► different politica from icy that es have seen it in during the last twenty years, when we lave heen dimming it and hoping in some degree to arum L We bare had reform bills proposed before this, but we lave not had one proposed sines the great reform of 1832. tinder the name cirrunatenme of distinetnees in the measure Itself, and of earnestness on the part of the government by whisk It bee been proposed. With regard to the distheet* DWI of the bill I think there has been a universal admis sion throughout the country. notwithstanding the dis appointment of many, end I confer the disappointment of myself, that the franchise, both in the counties sod the boroughs, was not proposed to be Lined at a lower figure. &RI, what it is prowesd to fix it at is something that we clearly understand, and the advantages of which ate one, in our different localities, pretty clearly aware. In speaking on the bill la the Route of Commune I said that it did not propose to give something with one land and lake it away with the other ; that it clears ►way great obstructions to the free working of the Reform Act, and dose not anew them obstructions to appear with regard So the new franchise, sod that both in counties and bertaghe it makes a very lapsible advance towards what we wry call a fair representation of the people. Lad the government woe come forward and declare that this is the of their administration ; that if it passes into law they will, of course, be glad for many reasons ; sad that ti ft should fail the government will fall. I have a great denim always to see a government in that position when it bee • great mascara in baud, became it can exercise much mon influence both upon public opinion and upon parlia ment—and parliament hi much more disposed to regard with • fixed and earnest attention any bill which may have masequenom of great moment upon the adotinistratioe, and coca epos the duration of parliament itself. (Hear, hear.) At this moment I think we am really espied in a soollict for something more than this bill, bemuse as the epuntion has been di/cowed in the House of Commons it is clearly this which is pot to the people, whether there shall be a parliamentary reform or there shall not, and whether is future • government of this country shall be • government upon the principle of popular representa tion. (Hear, year.) You have read, I dare my, some of yea with curiosity, some of you with amassment, and some of you with disgust, speeches that have been made from the beeches co the liberal side of the house against ibi bill ; if you examine these speeches, one of them, and the most important of them in particular, you will fled that almost every argument which has been directed spinet this preposition of the government is an arpo. mint that would have been as good against the reform of 1832, or would have been as good against any other proposition, at any former period of our history, for extending the representation of the people. In point of fast the speech to which I refer is a 'pitch that should have been made really in • country where popular representation formed no part of the con stitution—(cheers)—because it went upon the prin aiple that the great majority of the peol•1e are wholly unfit, by their character, and their ignorance, and their vitae, to partake in any degree whatever of that power which is conferred by a system of representative pvernment. Don't understand me, in refining to thi s particular, or to the opponents of this bill, in this language to apply it in any degree to the member of a city not far from here—the oily of Chester—who has proposed an &medlar:it on the second wading of the bill. Lord Grosvenor ha. made no speech against the bill ; he ban made a proposition which, if it be carried, in all probability will be fatal to the bill for this session, and unless we have a dissolution of parliament immediately, it will also be fatal to the government. Bat he has not ventured upon any language which is contemptuous of the people, and we are to • large degree in Ignorance of the precise grounds upon which he is acting. He is • member of es* of the most powerful aristocratic families of this country ; he is heir to a property perhaps as great as the property that is in the hands of any one family in this country ; but he is not a member of a family which has bean hostile in past times to popular freedom. (Hear, Near.) I recollect very well the pleasure with which our Ithairmao, some 22 or 23 years ago, produced la New-hall buildings one evening a cheque signed by Lord Grosvenor's grandfather for 5031. for the funds of the Anti-Coro law League. (Cheers.) Therefore I am nob willing to enter, and should not join in, any denunciation or expressions of strong feeling against Lord Grosvenor ea this matter till I had heard what he had to say upon it. 1 eau understand that a man standing on his social elevation and possessed of vast property, and perhaps not much acquainted with the character of the people from whom he is so far separated, may feel for • time some thing like apprehension, I will not say terror, of the ad vancing power of the people in a country like this, but I can assure him, if be needs any assurance, that there is ao man whose name is enrolled in your sssociatioe, or who will struggle daring the next three months on behalf of this bill, who would unjustly touch one acre of hie territories—fcheers)—or would diminish is any de gree by acts of violence or acts of terrorism that social elevation to which he is born. I am not very confident that Lord Grosvenor feels perfectly satisfied with the position be has taken up. I thought I gathered from the few words which be spoke last Friday sight, I think in the hou-e, that be was not very strong aphid the, or very confident in the wisdom of the Dinka which he has given ; and although I have no authority whatever to my more than the impression upon my own mind from what I observed on that evening (for I am la no commu nication direct or indirect with him or with any of his Meade), still I will not, nett) I see it actually enacted, quit. believe that he will lend himself to men I think very much inferior to him in moral mom, who are eaxions to destroy this bill, to overturn the government, and it may be to throw Ale great country into the obeys of an agita tion cut of which, at any rate, peewees in the position of Lord Grosvenor can have nothing to gain. (Cheers.) ?Maki back to the speech or speeches to which I lave inferred, you know the sort of language which was need speaking of the people. This bill does not purpose to brieg on to the electoral roll, even by what I should sell 'the highly-coloured estimate of the Chemosllor of the Hs abequer, more than 200,000 working men throughout Hag- Lei and Wake. I believe that number far exceeds the amber which will ha placed spot the register during the int few years, because he eatimated that all thane who will tome in from living in 101. homes, when the tate paying clauses are done away with, will be working eseo.cfige all know that, whatever the exclusion by those clauses, if them exoluded lire la 104. homes, it woad be • vary high It estimate to impose that oat-balf of them would be working ones.„ - And further, he calculates that these who will be included between the 71. sod 101. limit will all be working ram, although we all know that in this town, and, in fast, it is the me in every town is the kiss. doors, there are many perms living in houses between 71, and 101., who cannot upon any ordinary rule of calculation be reckoned in the list of working men. (Hear, hear.) I believe, therefore, that etatement of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, made doubtless in all honesty by himself, is not correct, and that the number of working men admitted will fall short of that which he estimates ; but I have no &WA that in process of time that number will from year to year increase ; that there will be an anxiety on the part of well-paid and Mat:meted working men to ;dime themselves upon the list of electors ; that there will be a tendency to build better houses, and for that elms of the working men to wish to live in better houses ; and that gradually, by a self-acting process, there will be, it may be, a slow but yet a sensible extension of the suffrage. But now, if the speeches which Infer to could be made with any degree of fairness of the hundred thousand, or the two hundred thousand who are to be admitted by this bill, what is the opinion which these speakers must hold of the great majority of the people who will still be excluded by this bill? Why, that they axe men who are really in that state of brutish igniwanes and degradation that it is not possible to commit to them not the making of laws, but even the giving a vote for any ma of good character or of excretion and social position in his district that he may go to parliament for the purpose of enacting laws, that, fs point of fad' this vast popu lation, these millions, the great majority still of the whole nation, are destined to be henceforth but hewers of wood sad drawers of water for these men in high position, of high titles and great wealth, who seem to think that the world was made for them, and that the constitution of England is for them alone, sod not for the great people of this kingdom. (Laud &m a) i te prd this bill in the present position of this question and of publie opinion ea es just and so moderate that all men who refuse to accept it mast be placed in the hat of those who are opposed to representa tive institutoos, and who, if they had lived when meth is standouts did not exist in this country, would in all proba bility have offered to them the same 'moistens' that they are now offering to this measure. But we know perfectly well that it there be anything of freedom la this country It comes from our representative institutions, sad if there be any solidity in that freedom, or any security for its future, it must come —it can come only from that portion sad that department of our form of govern ment which is elected periodically by the people of the country. Thou if there be this greet issue at stake, if our children, grandchildren, and so on in the generations to come, are to live under this goverment, if they are to be affected in all their interests by its legit- Mean, how mach does it become us mow to make a pest end irresistible effort to carry this measure. (Chews.) When the Reform Bill of 1832 passed it was • distinct and undeniable revolutios, a revolution of the happiest kind, carried without bloodshed, carried by the almost nasal mow expreesiou of the opinion of the nation, bat not lass a revolutios, for it established this principle beyond all possibility of recall—that the House of Oonimees should, sometime if not then, and that it should then more than heretofore, to the true and faithful representative of the intelligence, industry, and virtue of the population of the Halted Kingdom. (Cheers.) From that time till now this question ha been discussed; it has made progress ;and we ems now to another point of time when la all human probability another step will have to be made. Bak these gentlemen who oppose this bill tell us in the House of Commons, and some of their newspapers tell us outside the house, that really nobody wants this bill—(laughter) —and that a few men who have objects of their own to serve are constantly talking about it, bat that the great body of the people have really no Interest is it whatever. They said exactly the same of the bill of 1831. I stated ix the Hones of Ommone the other night that in the years from 1821 to 1831 there were scarcely any petitions pre sented to parliament in favour of parliamentary reform. [A Voice : They durst not.] And yet is the year 1831 the whole thing was se implosion. The House of Commons Aar terror-whisks:, men of peat families were almost hiding themselves from popular io. dignatioe, and alters movement such es may again be meow sary, but I hope will not, that bill passed into a law. What do these gentleness want now? Are they content to be taught by great and peaceable meeting', sad by the pre sentation of great petitions, or do they want something more? Do they believe that the people of England never feel anytbiog until they break windows—(laughter)—sad overturn gentlemen's carriages, and attack their houses, end get into excesses which are the first steps of ter rorism and insurrection! Or are they willing to imagism that we can want this bill, and yet are ready to proceed by • steady and regular course of peaceful political movement, and by these steps which the constitution of • free country points out to a free people? Judging from what is seen in the papers within the last few days, throughout the country meetings are being held ; come tueecies are giving reminders to their members ; those who are weak in the knees—(laughter)—are being strengtheeed ; doubts axe being removed—Haughterj—and gradually by the time we come to the second reading of the bill is all probability the liberal party in the hoes', which 1101310 must have thought of late rather dislocated, will be drawn together in a close and powerful phalanx, which I trust will bear down all the opposition that can be tendered against this bill. But let us have these meetings everywhere. (Cheers.) You devote one night to a great meeting, but that work of one night is to set something a-going which may be felt for generations by your countrymen; and the sacrifice of this one night's labour,or themerifiee that may be entailed, whetter of money or of labour, in procuring gnat and influential petitions from all your districts, is a sacrifice that may only have to be made for Gem, sad the result be sufficient to attain your object. But supposing that this bill should Dot pass readily through the House of Commons—suppose that Lord Russell, who, to his honour be it said, is not popular with the opponents of re form now—(cheers)—any mom than he was popular with the party in 1832—suppose that Lord Russell should find thathis administration was thwarted, and that by a combination of Lords and Commons there should be &disposition to maltreat this bill or to destroy it—suppose thee that he should exert the power which no doubt will be entrusted to him of bring lug about an appeal to the existing constituencies of the country, that may take place before the longest day, end many other thiop in connection with it may take place. Why should there not be in all the towns of Lancashire a large meeting of working men—lneu to some of whom this bill will bold out the right head of fellowship, isvitiog them to take their share se the political government of the country, and why should not these various meetings of the workiog men throughout the southern division of this county select a small number of men to form a joist com mittee for South Lancashire, that when we get a little nearer to that period of the year when fine weather Is the rule lather than the exception, they might call together, in some proper place in this division, a vast meeting of the working classes that 'holed tell to them slanderers of their order—(cheers)--that they are not the men they are de scribed to be in the House of Commons, sad that, living in a free country, with a representative oonstitntioo, they determine to partake in some sort of that representation, and to be themselves free. I believe that as this question goes on for enemata° during the next three mouths there will arise a greater expression of opioios than some mat who are opposed to this bill look for. I will advise them to take the wise end the generous mune, and **believe that amongst the great maned the people of England there is great intelligence and there are great vir tues ; and to believe further that if three, or four, or five hundred thousand more of the people of Elegised and Wales are included upon the roll of electors, it will give gri at a . rength to the government; it will give great and perms. neat security to the crown, and at the same time will do more than any other measure which parliament can saes to elevate sad to strengthen all that is good in the character of the &oldish people. (Loud cheers.) The meeting then terminated. A meeting is to be held at Norwich tc-day, to support Wows. A Woos excitement prevails. • quarterly meeting at the Lek , stsr Town Council. on Tuesday Mr. Wm. Mario. worth moved the adoption of s petition to the Oamesene Home of Parliament in favour of the new Reform Bill, which was the signal for 'early all the omnierratfre mem. tees to leave the council chamber. The petitios, whieh wee nod by the tows clerk, Mr. B. Sines, showed that the petitioners obserwd with satisfaction the inkodeotioe of the bill for the amendment of the representation of the people in parliament, whieh was wise and sabitsty, and an sot of fuel** to • large body of working ems who bad no voice in the represestatioe of the mestry, wide* it ergs believed would be usattended with soy danger to militia; institutions, and which would °steed the framable to a large numbs, who by their good sondset had proved that they - were deserving of it. Mr. Chambers seconded. and Mews. E. S. Ellis, R. Harris, T. Vicars Geo. Baines, and W. Kimono supported it. Without moviog env re solution to the contra, Mesas. C. R. Crossley, Wm. Row lett, jan. Jos. Cornwell, and Jos. Underwood opposed the motio n, ea they considered. with several others, that the council chamber should not be a political areas, but that such petition should be signed and adopted only by public meeting. Mane. Underwood and Rowlett. how ewer, expressed their coeouramos with the bill, and their strong disapproval of the mayor ageing the petition oa behalf of the meeting. The motioe, on being put to the ' meeting by the mayor, was carried, 5 voting against it. This Gove.nristgrer Redronm Bur, —Fneerorr.— The reformers of Prestos have adopted the following peti tion to the House of Commons :—" That a bill having been brought into your honourable house for extending the right of voting for members of your honourable house, your petitioners desire to express their hearty approval of the objects of such bill. That your petitiooers would respect fully urge upon your honourable house that justice and wisdom alike demand that the representation of the people is parliament should be plaoad upon a broader end firmer basis than at present. That the natty increased intelligence, eduoatios, end independence of character manifested by the working classes of this country, fully qualify them for the exercise of the elective franchise, and It that is a great injustice to continue to exclude than from their fair share in parliamentary representation. Your petitioners, confidently believing that the said bill sow before your honourable hone will. eminently tend to the fulfilment of the above objects, and will give increased strength and vigour to the constitution, humbly pray that the same may pass into law.' MIL SCHOLZYIELD AND seas REE'OEM QUESTION. —The following letter was read at the Birmingham meet ing on Monday :—" London Reform Club, 13. W., March 24, 1866. My dear am very glad you are going to hold a town's meeting in reference to the government Reform Bill, more especially since the notice of amendment given by lord Grosvenor. The bill undoubtedly falls abort of the hes I had entertained—and which were, I think, generally entertained by reformers—as to the extent to which the franchise would be reduced. I own, too, that I am disappointed that the government did not make their measure more complete, by combining with a liberal re &Lotion of the franchise the no lees important change of a redistributlon of seats. But those who, like myself, have confidence in the Rant ministry, are boned, I think, to avoid laying too much stress co these cossideratious. Foe reasons which they Inn deemed oonolusive, ministers have introduced a franchise bill alone, with a promise of a redistribution of seats bill, to be brought in this for adoption in the next—end no hearty liberal s ca li t il l think, refuse them his support. The Franchise Bill, as it steeds, whatever may be its defeats, evinces an honest desire en the part of the government to effect a substan tial reform, aid I, for one, am prepared to give them my warm cooperation. It is for the country now to declare indetermination, sad I aincierely hope that determination will be frankly expressed in favour of the bill.

BRIGHT AND THE SHMIPPTIOLD RITORIERRIL Several years ago a deputation was appointed to invite Mr. Bright to attend a reform meeting in Sheffield. He was not then able to do so, but in view of the present state of affairs a member of the depatation his ventured to remind Mr. Bright of the former isvitstioe, and to sagged that a visit to Sheffield now would be very useful Mr. Bright's reply is se follows :—"4, Hanyermtreet, Leedom, Marsh 20, 1866. —Dear Str,—l am sorry to say that I see no thanes of my being able to come to Sheffield to a public meeting, and I could not speak at s meeting in the open air. I dare not attempt the work which was hard enough to bear 20 years ago, and I am compelled to have some regard for my own health. It woad have a great edict upon the tone of parliament if some demosetration of opinion and feeling were made by the working mere. The opponents of reform say the workisg men are engaged only with questions of wages and in amens with their employers, mid do not care about political rights. It is well this statement should be contradicted, if it sea be done ; sod • great meeting of the unenfranchised meet a your town would be of great service. The government bill m a good bill, though it can scarcely be called a great bill. I think all reformers ooght to 'oppose it ; sad, I believe, if passed, it will give a more liberal - tone to parliament, and be of much nee is improving our legislation. I am sorry that I cannot come to help you ; but I must give up the Faster recess to some rest for myself, and to my family, frum whom lam too much separated during the parlia mentary session. I shall be glad to bear that you are , doing something in your town.

Yesterday afternoon the concluding proceedings in ooseeatios with the incised owns the Add Adams. alias Grease, found to be " Lid•eat" for disci la 134. Rama Workhouse, was held, as beton, at the Paeykant sodOastle, Osadea•towa. Tee ioquiry held by Mr. Faisal, C. 8., the Poore law Board's commissieerr, and published in ear paper last Thursday, elicited the chief fasts in the eme. and the first day's proceediop of the coroner's court brought out very clearly the Dumper in which the child was toned. Margaret Edmonds, a pauper tomato of lE. Panama Workhouse, and nurse is the children ' s nursery, was called and sworn. She stated In snswer to the coroner's questions, that the child died en Thursday. the 15th, that tt had been poorly, and that it was Dot seen by the doctor from the previous Monday, when he ordered it wine. When Mr. Hillocks saw the child it was lyiug sorest the foot of • bed, and "Mena, Wore Mr. Hawks arse, thought it was deed. The child bad bets very bad before Mr. Hil locks came, and it was very ill all the day and the dsy pre vious, cod witness thought a short time before Mr. Hil locks came in that it was dead, and she put a baodage round its head, but observing that the child mowed she loosened the bandage. She did not take it off on making the discovery, because she felt convinced the child " would hot last long." She did sot feed the child, but another woman who had a child of her own had to befog it up. In cross-examination she said it was not her duty to fetch the doctor, but the superintendent had to do this. The superintendent (Mrs. Sensom) know the Mild was IS, and it was her business to fetch the doctor. In reply to some sharp questioning as to who gave the wine, she said she gave it out to the woman who had the oars of the children, but that she herself pee the child the wine on the day tt died. On being pressed as to the time she so gave the wine on the Thursday, she said she gave it at tour o'clock—the time she had previously stated as that when the child was bandaged up. The Coroner said the woman certainly did place the bandage upon the child with the idea that it was mad. Mrs. Roberts, a pauper inmate, was sworn, and she made a statement cle arly showing that she called Mr. Hillocks' attention to the child, as he bad stated, and that he urged Edmonds totetch the doctor ; but she did not hear the answer. Mary Smith, the woman who had the ewe of the deceased, stated that usually three or four children died in a week in the nursery, and she coefirmed the statement about the doctor not seeing the child since the Monday before it died. She described the child as being very ill indeed, and she thought the doctor ought to have seen it. If it had been her child she should have expected the doctor to see it. Dr. Ringer, of Ilaversity College Hospital, who made the post-mortem, was then recalled, sad be rid that there could be no doubt the death of the child was accelerated by the bege being placed round it se described ; but it could not be said its death was owned by that. The Coroner said the question was whether it this child had had proper nursing and atteudanee it would have lived. The law of the country required that every person should have *very chases of beim and if this ignorant ty tog up a child's jaws as if it were deld had contributed to It. death, thee that was unlawfuL As Dr. Ringer was con nected with the University College Hospital, he would aide him if a child in that hospital would go for mayoral days without being seen by the doctor. Dr. Ringer replied--Oertainly not. The Coroner added—And in no hospital in the kindles would a child be so left. _ Mr. Ernest Hart, &gentleman who was watching the case 1 1 in the public interest, asked how many persona a medical ' man would have to attend to in an hospital. Dr. Binger replied—Not a tithe of the number Mr. Butt, the medical officer, had to attend to in this workhouse. Mr. Butt, the medical odicer, was thou collect, and he said he looked to the superintendeat to tell him on his visits to this part of the house if he was required in the morainal, sad having seen the child on Moedsy he did not go to again, as he was told all were going on well is the nursery. He then gave the following aa the numbers he bed to attend to in the house —namely, 240 etch is the infirmary or hospital proper, 430 aged and infirm women, 212 aged and infirm men, 42 insane men, and 90 inseam women, making a total of 1,014. In addition to these were 32 lying-in women, making a total of 1,046 directly under his hands ; and there were altogether 2,000 persons in the house to whose medical necessities he had to attend. With all this he only had one assistant medical officer and a dispenser. The Coroner said this was an enormous load of work for the medical officers, rod he thought the Poor-law Board did not sanction each a state of things. Mr. Hart informed the corona that the Poor-law Board bad no power in the matter. The guardians had the whole management in their hands, and tee Poor-law Board could , Dot interfere. Several of the jog u tte d n expressed se opinion that it was time the law was . Mrs. Stamm, the superintendent, was then cslled, end she gave the same evidence as she gave before the cow. missiorier ' and coefessed that she ought to have tuned the doctor to the child. She excused the bandagiog-up of the ehrld on the ironed that it was at the time it was so treated " all hut gorie." The room was charted for the jury to consider their VW. dint, and when it was again opened a verdict of &meth from inanition was given in. with the followieg special addi tions :—" The jury dealte to express the opiates that pest blame is to be attributed to the workhouse attendants for tying up the jaws of the dace:seed and treating her as dead before she had wholly expired ; they are further of °pima that there is not a =Molest number of medical atteadente and nurses to perform the duties of so large as establish meat as St. Noma Workhouse ; and they also beg to mimes their approval of the coons taken by Mr. Hillock is briegiog the matter before the public." When the verdict was read siveral of the guardians present wanted to argue the matter over with the jury, and are of them told the jury that Mr. Parma the commis sioner, stated that this was the best workhouse in the metropolis, and that it had a larger number of pad nurses than any other. The Ooroner replied that the public would infer from this that the other workhouses were wretched indeed. (A laugh. and Hear, hear.) Another guardian reminded the jury, that if there were more paid officers the rates would be higher. The Foreman of the jury answetei—You make the rates and we pey tbem, and it is your duty to see that those rates are sufficient forth, proper maintenance of the poor. The other jurymen s eh this opinion, and the proceed ings then terminated. CLOSE OP THE DEVON AND CORNISH MINER? imam —B. The miners of the Liskeard district, after baring suspended work for several weeks, have at length fully reastd the uselessness of prolonging • mutest, the futility of which, apparent to most persons acquainted with mining affairs from the commencement, has been daily becoming more and more so to the misers themselves. Though the grievances under which they alleged themselves to be ant feriog have not been redressed I. the way they desired, the events of the last month or rx weeks have had the effect of bringing their condition prominently before the public. a result not without important's, as affording rea son to hope that the force of public opinion may bring about the removal of those grievances, which are real, substantial, and undeniable. In the preliminary steps taken to establish the society efforts were made to place it before the mine agent. sod mansgm is a very innocent and harmless thing ; but the premature di-olosore of its rules, and the precipitate and indiscreet action taken at the Marks Valley and Fast Carideo Mimes, revealed its de signs and tendency, and left little doubt as to its ultimate fate. The determined stand made by the mine agents greatly tarried and discouraged the men, and since the i first meeting held by the former at Plymouth there seems to hays been • gradual defection of members, till at last those remaining longest considered the expe diency, for their owu protectioo, of accepting the ex ceedingly distasteful terms imposed upon them. A day or two ago • meeting was accordingly called on Camden Down, and though we believe no formal resolutions were adopted, it was tacitly determined to resume work. This understanding was acted upon on Thursday, and as at the ' monthly setting at Mark* Valley /Gee, which took plans on Friday, all the bargains, including those the rejection of which first led to the strike, were taken without objec tion, the whole of the miens in the Liskeard district are now in full work. From some remarks made by a speaker at one of the miners' meetings, there appeared to have been a misunderstanding as to the conditions upon which the men at certain mines in the Callington and Tavistcck diets eta had taken their pitches or bargains ; but at Liskeard the men seem fully to understand what they have does. Generally they have been required to state publicly that they have not subscribed to rules Nos. 9, 10, and 11 of the Miners' Associatios, or any rules similar thereto; the latter words, of course, extending to the revised rules recently sub tinted for the above, and published some days go in these columns. Though the suppression of the s oci ety has not been insisted on by the managers, it is looked upon as practically de funct by the men; but a hope is still cherished by some that it may be revived under more f able &nun:stances, and, by the exorable of a greater amount of caution and discretion, with different results. It is at present difficult to surmise in what light the society which the managers and gents desire to establish will be viewed by the miners. The existirig mine clubs have not hitherto been managed in such a manner as to command confidence, and until the plans of the committee of mine gents are matured, sad the nature or its manage ment and the extent of the advantages it will roofer are known, it would be impossible to calculate upon the &meant of support it is likely to receive from the class it is intended to benefit—Western Morning Rena CRYSTAL PALACE., OWN SEULLIWO DAT.
