Mr. Cobden, M.P. for Rochdale, met the non- ANION of the borough this evening, la the same marquee which was the some of yesterday's soiree. The admission was fres, end the place was densely pecked by an audience, mainly if not entirely of working men. Mr. Bright and Mr. Sharman Crawford were present, and the mayor again occu pied the chair. Xi. Cormr.N said he considered himself specially at home when addressing a meeting of non-electors, because the fun deinental rule and maxim of his life had been to seek the benefit of all clesses of the community, without distinction or difference. To non-electors the question of Parliamentary Reform was partisularly interesting. He though; reformers had made a great mistake in their mode of advocating this question by lumping too many things together. Es believed that they ought to commence with the suffrage Best, end take the ballot, the distribution of seats, and other miner points afterwards; be himself had always advocated sad voted for • household suffrage. It mart be remembered that in seeking an extension of tbo franchise wo should have to eavfnce a tribuaal wMeh was now the representative of that body of the community which wee already in posnesicsa of the franchise. and which believed that by extending the suf frage we should in some measure endanger the security and weal of the country. Now, he had always been a practical maxi, and he had endeavoured to bring practical considera tions to bear upon many questions which he advocated, so in considering the question of parliamentary reform, be should endeavour to show the middle-classes and their representa tatives that it would be to their interest to extend the fran chise beyond the present limited pale. He thou;ht that it would be neosessry to appeal to the instincts cf selfishness In the sofrinclased claseee. It wee and that if the people were entreated with the electoral power they would not be able to take care of themselves. If this Reser tion wee made in allusion to the ignorance of the people of this country, he would answer, that another reason why he advocated the extension of the franchise wee that the richer and better educated of the community would be compelled to extend the means of education to their poorer fellow subjects, and in proof of this Mr. Cobden cited the example of the Unitte Bates. Another assertion that was advanced was that if the franchise was extended the influence upon Mandel affairs would be injurima, bat if the result were that articles of large consumption, such sa tea, toga, paper, &a., were relieved of custom duties and other axes, and if direct tax,. wets enbatituted for indirect taxes, he firmly believed that all Blame of the community would largely benefit by the Mange. Now as regarded the character of the Reform B U that wee to be—whilst he was in America Mr. Bright made a arise W orations on parliamentary reform, which for sustained variety and eloquence had seldom or never been equalled in this or amother country; and an American gentleasam'after reading Mr. Bright's speech, had said to him (Mr. Cobden) tom reform ought to have been advocaat before the corn lawe were repealed, became now that breed was cheap, work plan• tif•l, and the people comfortable, they would care very littli for the extension of political privileges. This might be bee la some measure, but there was unquestionably • feeling for reform in the country. Ile thought the measure proposed by Lord John Russell was a very moderate one, but it would coneiderably, iTherOGOO the number of voters is England. lend Joha's proposal was to give a vote to occupiers of it. houses In the borough, and 101. tenements in coun ties, and be should feel it his duty to sup pet the Imams by all the means in his power- WWI respect to the ballot be was convinced that t►e fleet parliereent renamed under a row reform act would at cam geased M handsel en act for voting by ballot; at my isle tbeeekt it would he the wisest plan on the part of the re , imam not to mix tap the question of the ballot with that Of •s extension of the franchise. He woe in f►vour of a re- distribution of seats. Instead, however, of giving two mem berm to a town, he would pref.'' , to divide a town into wards, and give a member to each ward. In large towns generally one {portion was inhabited by the lima class and another by the poorer, and such a plan am he had named would be a fairer mods of representation than the present system. Mr. Cobden sat down amidst great cheering. The meeting was afterwards addressed by Mr. Crawford end Mr. Bright. Mr. BRIGHT, after expreseing big pleasure at hearing the lengthened remarks of Mr. Cobden upon the eub;ect of par• liamentary reform, proceeded to denounce in the strangest terms the policy whi,h lei to the wars at the end of the bet and beginning of the present century. Those ware we owed to the oligarchy of this country, and to the oligarchical system of government which then existed. He then reviewed the progress made in England sinse 1830, particularising the benefits wising from free trade, the advantages consequent upon the formation of railways, the extenien of colonies and the discoveries of gold in Australia and Califon and, beyond all, the abundant blessings which had sprung from the lung duration of peace. In this career of progress the sristocracy and government bad certainly permitted the utmost individual and personal freedom. But it was to the industry and Intelligence of the people that we owed the great improvements to which he had alluded. To this people, improved and improving—this tolling, long-enduring and peaceful people—he wished to extend the privileges of the elec toral fr mcblie ; and ea the present cabinet had promised • Reform Bill, he trusted that hue sad elsewhere throughout the country they would receive • warm and hearty support. ' The meeting closed with the usual vote of thanks to the chairman at half-post 9 o'clock. HEATIORD ELECTION. HERTFORD, TH1:1111DAT. • This morning the Hon. W. F. Cowper offered himself for re-election as a member for this borough, the seat booing become anoint in consequence of hie having accepted office. The Fetus being the event created for this yr mealy quiet borough a g nat amount of exci.ement. A great number of fleas were displayed in different parts of the town, and everything betokens that the contest will be a spirited one. The show of hands being in favour of Mr. Dimas* a poll was demanded on behalf of Mr. Cowper.

The following letter, signed by Mr. Lilwall, was received on Tuesday by Mr. Potter 8114—At the request of the committee of thb society, I have just addressed • letter to the Central Association of Yeadevs, inviting them to appoint a given number of their members to meet a like number of the baling Mends of the Early Closing Auociation, in order to discus in a calm and dispassionate manner the central points of contention now unhappily miating between the masters and the men, end which tend to prolong the strike, and its manifest evils to both bodies, as also to society at large. The object of this latter, therefore, ie to invite your committee to appoint • given number of delegates to meet the friends of the Early Closing Amociation and the masters on the proposed occasion. We think six persona from each committee would be about the just number to secure a full dismal= of the several points of contention, the various details of the suggested meeting, including:the names of the representative* of the Early Closing Association, should be previotialy submitted for the approval of both committees. Hoping that you will anent to our proposition as above, by appointing mit • number of delegates ea may here►fter be agreed upon—l remain, dec." To this proposal, Mr. Potter, on behalf of the corderecee, returned the following reply Bir,-1 am directed by the conference of the nine hours movement to InfAqa you that your letter wee read last sun * at themeitereace, and that the following resolution was unaaimously passed .—' That the semelary be empowered inf.rm the Early Closing Association, that as soon as the Committee of the Early Closing Amputation shall have been amered as mediators by the master builders, this conference will they be prepared to entertain your proposition.' " It has been reported that the fisatar;A;sociation have de clined the proposed conference. At a meeting of the conference held last night, it wu re solved to send Messrs. Cramer, Facy, Brown, and Osborn, as delegates to visit the principal towns in the kingdom for the purpose of agitating the question, collecting support for the men locked out, and persuading operatives not to come up to London to ell their places. On Monday next a dividend will be struck for the support of the 18,000 men who are amertained to be locked out. The lame amount will be given to aU the men, whether artisans or labourers. The adjourned meeting of the delegates from the different trades of London is looked forward to with considerable interest, became it will then be ascertained to what extent these confederated bodies of artisans are prepared to sup port their brethren of the building trades in their present emergency, end to uphold them in agitating the Nine Hours Movement. MEETING AT WOOLWICH. Lest evening a dewily-crowded public meeting of the operative elutes connected with the building trade wee held at the Castle Tavern, Powis-street, Woolwich, for the pur pose of taking into consideration the present lock-out, and adopting such resolutions thereon as might be deemed expo dint. The great majority of the meeting were workman now employed, and the utmost unity prevailed during the pronedinge. The chair was occupied by Mr. G. Darby, joiner, and chairmen of the Woolwich and Plurnsteed Load Committee for Supporting the Lock-onto, who urged the necessity which existed at the present crisis for unity of purpose end action amongst the opera tive builders of every branch. He found that the cmpentere and joiners of Woolwich were not, generally speak ing, society men, although they had come forward nobly to support the present straggle. The meeting had been con- I mud to disease he propriety of forming an association of the Woolwich building operatives, or to form a breech of the ' Londe; Society, in order that they might be enabled more effectually to assist the present sheet-time movement, and at some future period obtain judos for themselves. Several speakers having addressed the meeting, • com mittee, cseristing-ei five members, was appointed to prepare • report, Is be eabmitted to • future se g.• uto the beet mode of effectieg a utopias combination of the operative builders of Woolwich and It dietriot. In reply to questions, the Chairman stated that the local com mittee for Woolwich and Plonesterd had received nu merous contributions in aid of the fund for the support of the men who were locked oat, and members of the committee had canvassed many of the shopkeepers and trading dames, who evinoed their sympathy by subscribing. A collection was then made in the room, and • considerable amount subscribed. (From the Building Netts cd this day.) We are informed that dazing the week some of the smeller firms which closed ou the 6th of Amon have reopened their eatablishwenta, and that many man have retuned to their employment without being said to give their meat to any document whatever. A number of mem, chiefly, we believe, from the country, are now at work at the establish m. :at of Messrs. Trollops; and we have heard that on Wednesday a builder in Euston-road uncon ditionally acceded to the nine hours movement. Out of the 20,000 men who were deprived of week, either by the strike or lock-out, upwards of 400 have resumed their ordinary occupations, and that, too, without being sub jected to giving their went to the "declaration." From the meetings of the masters the representatives of the prees are (we think most unwisely) excluded, to that we cannot give sepoeta of what takes place at them ; but we have been informed that some of the mutes, in cluding the heed of a vary extensive establish ment, strongly advocate the withdrawal of the "document." Should that withdrawal take pl ice, it is generally believed that the present lamentable and dieastrous dispute between masters and men in the budding trade would be speedily ended, Amongst other mishaps we may state that in consequence o f the strike and lock-out, the main drainage works of the metropolis are comparatively at a standstill. In the con struction of the northern high-level sewer, only 300 navvies are at present at work, and no bricklayers, so that the pro greme of the work may be said to be stopped. We were informed last (Thursday) evening that during the day eleven men who had come up from the country to work for Messrs. Trollops were, under the influence of the cosforaws, Wooed to leave their work. TO TEI EDITOR 01 THY l'CraLsil. 81R,—As my name las been so prominently re. fared to to the oomstualoodoso you have Inontod frost the United Trades Conference, regarding trade societies, snd also in Mr. Wales's letter in reply, you will probably do me the favour of allowing me to trespass upon your valuable apace to state that I have carefully examined the rule', books, and minutes of the managing committee of the Metropolitan Society of Operative Bricklayers, and alto the rules and by. laved the various lodges. Varnish is, I am of opinion, that there is no foundation for the charges of interfering with the mode of dole( work (handling the trowel, bricks, &c.), made against the society by the master budder.. The role of secrapy applies only to the admiasion and ex clusion of members la those societies sad lodges when the ballot is not tired. la the Carpenters' and Joiners &del, and the lodges when they ballet for members, there is ao rule about keeping their proceedings secret. With refer nos to the resolution spinet overtime, it appears the committee had nothing to do with it, except In obtaining a delay, so that every man is the motility might give his opinion ; this was done by a voting paper, and the new rule waa carried by a majority of 1,13511 to 279. A re spectful intimation to that effect was dimmest round to every mower builder. " Working overtime," It is stated, is usually calmed by • man's idling away (in drinking or; otherwise) one or two days In the week, and then being allowed by the masters to make It up by working over the regular hours, in which car the public is frequently the 'offerer by extra charge. There Is no restriction regarding overtime in oases of emergency, provided the master pays the man et the came extra rata •s he has always dons, and se he always charges the employer. I beg to add that the minutes show that the strike regula tions have • tendency to discourage star, and that the assuaging committee has breathe mesas et settling, and even preventing, many disputes between the sr and their muter. The minutest alas attest many acts of benevolence and wow Mere. The managing committee is in fact a " Council of Conciliation" bricklayers elected by the various ledges of the craft to consider and arbitrate upon the disputes of their fellow-workmen, and they are consulted by non-society se well se society men. The principle upon which it is founded is worthy of bolts ' don in many other trades, and it might be made • moot (Stamped ld. Additional) [TWOPENCE. valuable atehttat to the outer against badly conducted sad uaskllled artisans. With regard to the remarks in connexion with my name, made by Mr. Wales in hie letter, I beg to state that it is not my intention to reply to them In the tone he hu adopted. So long as the discussion wu canted on with good temper, and avoided personalltiet, I should hare been ready to render soy assistssce in my power to promote a settlement of the die. pates. Iwu not, however, totally unprepared for the loss of tamper in Mr. Wales'. letter, after the personal encounters reported to have taken plus between some of the master builders. Nothing lieeMll to me more injudicious than the 11110011- conduct that the muter builders h►ve adopted from the beginning. Their refuel to receive a deputation from the united trades (which even most prime ministers would have granted); their rodent", to any mediators, and even to the press; the un-English seutay of their meetings, and their adherence to the obnoxious "document," have arrayed against thus almost every artisan in the United Kingdom. All eyes were anxiously tamed to their meeting of the day before yesterday. One stroke of the pen through the solver ally condemned " document," end 20,000 men would have returned t.) their employment. They have neglected this opportunity. The " document" (as their colours) has been nailed to the "mast," and by it they must stand or fall. Deeply le It to be lamented that they did not follow the ma& of thoDshilw wester builders, who have noted.' to . - the general desire of their workmen tot so increase of wages, sad the report in yesterday's paper concludes by saying that the negotiations were conducted in a spirit of modera tion on both sides which speedily led to an amicable result." _ . It was the mas'er builders themselves who first asked my co-operation in a letter from that very Mr. Walls who now (quibbling about the substituted term of Central Aro dation fee Mister Builders' Society) repudiates the notion of my ever having been applied to. As my motives have evidently been misjudged by the muter builders as a body (some amongst them I ass happy to consider as personal friends), I shall refrain from all farther interference, only hoping that these unhappy differ- atom may have a speedy termination, and that the master builders may not want a mediator when it 4 t' too late."— I am, &c., T.

In judo, to the author, Mr. Backatone, and to sumul clever actors, whose property swords ere now rue', whose beau are dust, and whose souls are with the saints we trust, It is to be hoped that the rising generation of playgoers will not maks up their minds as to the worth or woetlikeensis of the Wreck Ashore from the representation which they saw last night. Twenty-alai year. ego the Oem was written professedly to fit the various mambos of the best melodramatic Corp., perhaps, ever gathered together—it did fit, however, and the success was tremendous. That was lug see the spirit of burlesque kindly opened the eyes of the audience to all that wee passing behind the ocemee, to the tricks and shifts of the prairies, how it is " slow" and ridierdose to allow *muff to be carried along by the interests represented, and accordingly those who have to represset them are lees ettentivs and hes competent. It would be manifestly unjust to leonine* a comparison between the original cast and that of last night; moreover, the perform ance was for a benefit, when if we get even the author's longue we are lucky; and in one instance we were diesp- Wend even In that, being regaled with the performer's wall known British vernacular. However, the hones was fairly attended, and the people seemed amused, so that after all the berofigiaire's purpose wea answered, THE WIFE JILVIDER IN BZIOPOBDSHIRIt. It will be in the recollection of our readers that on last Tuesday week a most shocking murder was com- mitted at Luton, in Bedfordshire, the victim being a young woman aged about 21 years of age, and the murderer being ber husband, Joseph Castle, a =lnter, living at Wars, In Herts. It appeared the they had been married about two years. On Monday, the Sth inst., they had words, and the wife left her husband, and proceeded to the residence of bey mother, living In Yoh-sweet, Luton. On the husband W hig his wife had lett him he &Bowed her, both reaching that town the same events,. where they appeared to have made up their quarrel. Oa Tuesday morning Castle promised his wife if the would return home with him to behave better to her. The unfortunate woman consented to go with him. They Int the parents of the wife about 9 o'clock in the morning, going the nearest road to Ware by a footway near to Summery-hal Farm, occupied by Mr. How. About 11 o'clock the young woman was found in a hollow dell speechless and nearly dead, with her throat cut, a large gash in the front severing the windpipe, awl cut in several other parts; her right band lacerated, three of her fingers and the thumb having gashes, as if she had resisted her murderer, her left hand being also much injured. Assistance was soon procured, and the poor woman woe removed to its Heron Inn, Luton, but before she got there she ceased to exist. The crime was committed with an old table dinner knife, sharpened at the point, which wee found in a ditch awe the spot. • Xentereiny morning the murderer, Joseph Castle, was placed at the bar at the New Tore-hall, Luton, charged with the wilful murder of his wife. The magistrates present were Mr. John Sambt enk Crawley, Mr. Humphrey Brandreth, and the Rev. Hugh Smyth. The excitement ce c taloned by the dreadful offence is most intone throughout the entire district surrounding Luton, and long before the court was opened yesterday morning the door. were besieged by per- SODA anxious to obtain admission. The court was imme diately filled. The prisoner, a rather ordinary looking young Men. appeared to feel his pceidon most acutely, sad was deeply affected at intervals during the proceedings. Evi deuce was gene into at considerable length, and the prisoner, whn declined *tying anything, was fully committed tor trial at the next assizes for Bedford. THE FATAL ACCIDENT ON TEE EMERY COUNTIES RAILWAY. Yesterday evening Mr. J. C. Lewis, the coroner for South Bears, resumed en adjourned inquest at th e Red Lies lan, Ilford, respecting the death of Mr. William Per kins, aged 46 years, lately carrying on business as an under taker in the Curtain-road, 6thorditch, who lest biss life oa the line of the Eastern Comities Railway, on Thursday after noon, the Mb. Thomas Smiley, the fireman, and John Howell, the en gine driver, ewe] that the usual rignal was sounded as the train approached the auxiliary signal at Ilford. and both witnesses swore positively that no one was on the line as the wriggles pegged. The deceased must have come through the gate as the train was passing, and walked against the car riers, whereby be was knocked down. In awns to a juror, One of the witnesses s'oted that Smlth was allowed half a•crown a weak to look after the trains and the gates. Her husband wee employed on the same line. The jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death." TIM BALLOON 4SCZNY PROM NEWCASTLE. Yesterday's Chronicle states that on Wednesday night Captain Hall, who had been worn during the day, bad been cupped on the neth, end expressed himself much relieved. Subsequently be was able to converse. The paralysis of the anus and legs continues, though some alight movement, it is said, has been made by the former. Owing to the nature of the accident the meth of nervous matter known as the "spinal marrow" has been compressed, so as to cut ar from the limbs all power of the will in the train to commu nicate motion to them. The case is almost hopeless, but in a medical point of view exceedingly interestiog. Of the balloon nothing whatever bad been heard, the reports about its discovery at Whitby, Hull, &c., having proved erroneoua. It I. probable that It would retain Its floating power for two or three days at least, and would travel probably S.H. by E., at the rate of about five miles an hour. It may there fore be expected to be heard off by vessels plying from the mouth of the Elbe or from Hamburg oorreapondente. This supposition Is founded upon the assumption that the wind remained in the rams direction. A very general hope has been ixpressed that the faithful little dog who remained in the tier to guard his master's clothes and purse may esfely arrive on terra fi rma ; dog-arise persons consider that the poor madam could exist possibly fir eighty hours without water or Ind. SHOCKING DEATH OP A LIVEEPOOL GENTLEMAN AT finowboa.—We regret to announce the death of Mr. George Frodshern, managing clerk in one of the 'merit mer cantile Arms in Liverpool, under circumstances of the most appalling nature. The deceased gentleman commenced the *mot of Snowdon about midnight on has. day, in order to strive at the commit of the mountain in time to see the .1111 rise. Hs had a guide with him, but thie person he dismissed before he reached the lop. Nothing 11110 r• wee wen of him until Tuesday morning, when hie ts•iy, fearfully mutilated, wee discovered bine on the base of a precipice, and from slow marks on the ground there is no doubt that the mm imamate gentleman had fallen from a keght of upwards of 600 feet. Mr. Frodahno was very much esteemed fa Liverpool, and his melancholy fate has caused regret moot* a large circle of tri.nds. A COUNTY MAGISTRATE FINED.—At the Wol verhampton Petty Sersions, on Morsday, Dr. William Mannix, one of the county magistrate., was charged before W. Warren and G. L. 1:1;th-thin, Bona, with using obesity* and insulting language to Elizabeth Franks, with intent to provoke a breech of the peace. Mr. Langton prosecuted, and Mr. Bartlett defended. The complainant stated that she sold baskets in Wolverhomptou Market. On Saturday week she saw Dr. Mannix passing the Mark* Hall, end applied to him for payment of a small account. He replied he should do nothing of the kind, called her en old wretch, and began to be very abusive. She then Inlet to her mall. Dr. Maned: followed her, and said, " Yon old wretch, I should like to cut your torene out of your bead." He returned Ere times to her, rig abusing her, and on the last occasion said, " Well, old Billisgagate, have you sold any more baskets yet f" Complainant made no reply. She was corroborated by her husband and a girl named Roden. Mr. Bartlett said that his client dented, on his honour as a gentleman. that he hal made use of the expressions imputed to him. The ate count was one of 20e. for potato pots, an amount which he refused to pay, *min never given more that 194. for the tame articles.
