This Company being now completely registered, the Directors take the earliest opportunity of laying before the Shareholders a statement of its progress and prospects. It may be confidently asserted that no Company was ever brought before the public with equal prospect of speedy and successful results. S AM The prompt assistance afforded by the Shareholders to the Direc tors, and the perfect confidence in the management displayed by them, have enabled the Directors to take such steps as must ensure an enormous dividend within a few months. Sir Henry Huntley, the resident Director In California, has been in that country five months, and the course adopted by the Directors for carrying out this enterprise results from the experience obtained by him during that period. The instructions given to Sir Henry Hunt ey were, in effect, that he should make every possible Inquiry relative to the state of the country, the tenure of land, the com parative merits of the different quartz veins in the several districts of California, and after mature deliberation to advise the Directors as to their best course of proceeding, and to take such measures as would enable them to carry out his views as speedily as possible. Following these instructions, he has secured for the benefit of the Company, sufficient lands for all mining parposes ; but he is clearly of opinion, that for the present, at least, it is not desirable to under take mining operations, bat to crush and amalgamate quartz to he supplied by those who are possessed of mines, and have raised the quartz. With the assistance of some gentlemen of great experience io geology and mining matters, he has inspected and tested a great variety of veins in the Mariposa, Nevada, Grass Valley, and other districts, and has come to the conclusion, upon sound reasons, that the vicinity of Grass Valley and Nevada City, is that which affords the greatest advantages for car rying on our enterprise. He has, therefore, entered into an agree ment with some American gentlemen, who have formed a company, and have opened, and, to a considerable extent, worked a vein of quartz, distant about three miles from Grass. Valley and Nevada City, and about thirty miles from Sacramento City, to crush and amalgamate the quartz to be raised from the mine opened by them. By means of machinery, he has already crushed and amalgamated considerable quantities of the quartz sup plied him from this mine; and the result of his operations has been to satisfy himself that the vein is of a full average richness, and that the locality otters many important advantages in the way of water, fuel, means of transit, &c., &c. Ile has, there fore, entered into a formal agreement with that Company, which, in a few words, amounts to this: he is to be supplied by them with as much quartz as his machinery shall be found capable of crushing; the quartz is to be deposited at the mills free of expense; he is to crush and amalgamate it at his own expense, and he gold produced is to be divided equally between the owners of the vein and our Company. Formal and legal agreements for carrying out the above arrangement fairly and honestly, and without any copartnership, have been entered into. Steam-engines and machinery estimated to crush about thirty tons of quartz a day, with fends sufficient for putting it in motion, have been placed under the control of Sir Henry Huntley; and, unless some unexpected delay has arisen, the machinery is now actually at work, and a return will be made about Christmas next. For the satisfaction of the existieg shareholders of this Company, and without wishing, in any manner, to deteriorate from the merits of other Companies, the Directors are desirous of calling attention to some of the more prominent advantages possessed by this Com pany over others now in the field. Shareholders in other Companies must mainly rely upon reports sent over by persons interested in selling the mire; Director and his practical Assistants on the spot, whose only we rely upon the repor ts of our own resident interest is to give us facts. The Directors of other Companies generally base the estimate of the value of their mine upon calculations founded on experiments upon a few pieces of specimen quartz, sent over to this country for the express purpose of advertising the commodity offered for sale to the British public; we found our calculations upon experiments tried, during several weeks, on quartz raised from the mine, and crushed and amalgamated by our own Superintendent, and with our own machinery and apparatus. Other Companies propose to incur the expense and risk of carrying out mining operations upon their vein, before the quartz arrives at their mill, and, should their labours prove successful, they must then pay out of their profits large per- cen t ages f or obtaining their leases, and large royal ties to their l essors ; whereas we h a ve secured as much quartz as our machinery as that of any other company, unfettered by a n y p er-tenta g e or is capable of crushing, the title to which is as secure royalty. The h a lf o f the produce to be paid by this C om p an y to the parties who supply us , free of expense, wills the q uartz, bein g in fact merely equivalent to th e di v id en d u pon the outlay of capital ex pended in raising the quartz, and lodging it at the mill. All the new companies, unlike this, must be a considerable time before their arrangements and machinery can be ready for carrying out their schemes—this Company alone is actually at work. The paid-up capital of the Company will not exceed 20,0001. An almost certain estimate of the produce of our machinery can be formed, and, from the calculations made, the Directors confidently anticipate being able even at the most moderate estimate, to afford a dividend of 200 per cent., at the least, within the next twelve months. According to the data furnished to us, the quartz which we are now working yields upon an average 4d. per pound, or 1/. 173. 4d. per cwt., or 371. 6s. Bd. per ton; and, as we can crush and amalgamate at least 20 tons per diem, that would amount to 7461. 13s. 4d., or 3731. s. Bd. per diem as the share of this Company. By the peculiar arrangements this Company has made, based upon practical experience, the economy in working expenses must necessarily be such as to render the current outlay most trilling. In case circumstances should induce the Directors to alter the system now adopted, and lead them to undertake mining operations of their own, arrangements have been made securing four distinct sites, most carefully selected for their eligibility for mating pur poses, and Sir Henry Huntley has on the spot Cornish miners who went out with him, and who Ilave voluntarily retendered him their services. The gentlemen who formed the Provisional Committee of this Company, have added to their number several gentlemen possessing the acquaintance and entire confidence of a very large body of Shareholders in the provincial districts. To add such mon to the Direstory was due to those Shareholders who have in fact estab lished and nobly supported this Company. Measures will bo taken for further augmenting the Directory, and a Special General Meet ing of the Shareholders will be convened fur the middle of January. In conclusion, the Directors beg to offer their best thanks to the Shareholders tor the uniform support they have received, and they pledge themselves that the affairs of this Company shall be con ducted with the most rigid economy, and with the sole view of for warding the interest of the Shareholders. it'he Directors beg to call the attention of Shareholders particularly to the fact that, from the system adopted by this Company, it can not be affected by the question now agitated between the holders of leases and Colonel Fremont or his agents. The district selected for the operations of this Company is far removed from the tract claimed by Colonel Fremont. The difficulty arising out of the many points now raised relative to the tenure of land under leases, had been long known to and was maturely considered by those having the control of the affairs of this Company, and was one of the reasons which in duced them to pursue for the present the course they have, and not to incur certain heavy expenses with doubtful results. The Directors trust that Shareholders will approve of the prudence of the course they have adopted. rrospectuses may be had upon application at the offices of the Company.

It happened but lately. as I took a walk, My cars were saluted by confident talk ; The pith of what passed in a street conversation I mean to deliver in faithful narration. A tradesman stepped out and his neigbour addressed, Nis income last year had improved, he confessed ; His business had yielded little more, he admitted, But from long tailors' bills he was safely acquitted. He had visited MOSES and SON'S clothing mart — Had proved it was matchless for neatness and art ; But the saving was such in the course of the year, As left him in pocket a fifty pound clear. A mechanic who laboured from morning to night, And planned and devised to his uttermost might, Said his children were fed and better arrayed Since the whole of their clothing by MOSES was made, But this w as not all, he had sent them to school, As e :earning was useful in handling a tool ; Yet no poorer had been since that he projected, The cost had bee n c l eare d i n t h e i r d ress , h e expected. A n ohleman's mansion stood out from my way, Its splendour induced m e attention to pay; The servants attending would form a great mass, Yet each in new livery this morning did pass; Their master as courteous as old English days, To every department his own notice pays. When questioned on taxes and cost he replies, My deadeg with MOSES all that now defies : The cost is discharged, the taxes defrayed By the constant reductions he offers in trade, While to every observer it must be quite plain, That in point of appearance I every way gain. Pleased with my ramble, my notes I was scanning, Nor felt the cold winds on every side fanning ; They could not affect me, from my knee to my throat I was safely ensconced in a warm Witney coat. For this coat I'm indebted to MOSES'S power, To make it, to trim it, and sell it much lower Than any one ever Though inventions improve could t,hlnikaittihtnenessaehdaafyress, N h ways, E.

The following testimonial is another proof of the great effi cacy of this medicine : " 157, New Bond-street, London, October 12, 1850. " Sir,—ln acquainting you with the great benefit which I have ex perienced by taking BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, I feel that I am but performing a duty to that portion of the public who may be similarly affected. STRIKE IN THE IRON TRADES. An aggregate meeting to (use the terms of the notice, which was headed " Employers' Strike,") of the work men in the various branches of the iron trades was held in St. Martin's-hall, Long-acre, yesterday "to consider their present position, and to devise means for the future." The platform and body of the hall were filled, but not to over-crowding or excess, by a body of men who had mostly the appearance of respectable mechanics and arti sans, and the general aspect of the meeting was very grave and serious, there being a complete absence of any thing like " enthusiasm " among the auditors of the speeches. Some police wore in attendance, but there was not the smallest occasion for their services. Some Chertists of minor note were prowling about, and one of them was taking notes of the points made by the prin cipal speakers; but the meeting did not recognize them in any way, nor did they attempt to address it. Lord Godorich was among the persons on the platform, and remained till nearly the close of the proceedings; and Mr. A. Vansittart, Mr. A. Lewis, Mr. T. Hughes, and Mr. Le Chevalier were also present. Mr. J. CROMACK: was called to the chair, and apolo gised for his inadequacy to fill so high a post. He was only a hard-fisted British mechanic who got his living by his labour, and had very little opportunity of improving himself, so as to address them; but they would take his earnestness as proof of his sincerity in the cause of his brother-workers. Ele hoped they would enter most earnestly into the cause, and in that great struggle which was purely for the elevation of their own industry' and of those unfortunate brethren who were at all times unable to obtain employment inconsequence of grievances which they all knew, and were determined to redress. Ho felt sure they would be ultimately successful. Mr. USHER moved the first resolution:— " That many of the employe rs a g Leeelpn and Lulea shire having closed their Work s ahops, this meeting is of unjust, and particularly op pressiveto us© labourers, and pledges it self d obtaining subscriptions in opinion t t h o a e t vneo their rny . m exertion conductemrbtieo non-members ia i nn s behalf of all who are thrown out of employment." wpueebkliscillgnoconnexion with an tlaey little expected to tom© When a t g b a e i g n un fortunate event which affected the co mmerc i a l i n t e r es ts of the whole of the British dominions. Having met such opposition from their employers, the men w ere now determined to go through with their work peaceably; met before three the but at the same time with that energy which had ever characterized the acts of the tr ade.—(Cheers.) A fort night ago they regretted they had not among them a number of employers to discuss the question, that the public might come to a correct judgment as to whose acts were just, and now, he was Proud to say, they had many employers there—men who had accumulated a little out of their earnings, and who were now deter mined to work for themselves, seeing that those for whom they had laboured so long and beneficially had taken up so hostile a position against them. Their employers had " waxed fat and kicked, and it was now for the public to come forward, and support those who had so long laboured for others. The work must be done, and who where to do it but those who had done it for years, and who were yet willing to perform it? The work men were now the only medium between the purchasers and the producers.—(llear, hear.) They could do the work better, because the men would be working for themselves, and they would be now sti mulated to use their ingenuity, which a few had bene fited by hitherto. His belief was that many useful in ventions would now be brought forward, which would have been given to the world long ago but that a few only would have reaped the benefit. —(g ear , hoar.) If any employer disputed that their demands were just, let him come forward, and they were willing to argue the question with him. The workmen did not wish to be compelled to labour from six in the morning till ten at night, when thousands were wandering over the country in search of employment. When the masters strove to compel them to undergo this labour they alas pealed to th e public, which always sanctioned that which was just and right. He was confident their cause would meet with success. There were thousands who would con tribute one day's wages to those thrown out of employ ment, and he said to those who were placed in that posi tion, " Fear not, we are young—we feel we owe you a duty, and we will work bone and sinews in your ser vice. You have secured for us a position in society, and you shall not be crushed."—(Cheers.) That they were not mere serfs the masters showed by the importance they had attached to their acts, and they would now compel the employers to use them as they ought to be used. Thank God, all the masters were not so desirous of throwing the men on the charity of the world, and for them they must work industriously and earnestly, but, at the same time, the society would protect those who had been sacrificed by a few. They who expected to crush them would have more to meet with than they bargained for. The men occupied a position equally strong as theirs, and they were determined to exercise it to the last. Let them be of good cheer. They would cling to each other and "the least o't, the waist o't, wad anely be to beg." It was delightfal.tolt, -130W'efrat• that, there were men w ith th ousan d s w h ould assist the workmen. They were now working For those who should come after them, and they were determined to leave the world better than they found it. In conclusion, he called on thorn (in the words cf a recent song) to " have filth in one another."—(Cheers.) Mr. POTTS seconded the resolution at some length. Mr. NEWTON, who was greatly cheered, spoke to the resolution. They had kept the promises they had made of discretion and moderation in all their transactions. The papers which at first had opposed them by mere words, had now condescended to argue with thorn, and he could not find it in his heart to rail against them; but there was one to which he must allude—the Weekly Dis patch—(llear)—or, rather, to the article in that paper, written by Sidney Smith.—(oh, oh!) Ho bad in that article called them " a band of paid ag it a t o rs, who lived on the earnings of working men." That room full of working mechanics, who knew what their pay was, could answer the charge better than the council. — (Hear.) For himself, ho could say ho never had re ceived ono farthing in his life for advocating any cause, that ho never was the paid lecturer of anybody, that ho never had sold an opinion for gold in all his life, and he challenged Sidney Smith to come forward and say the same—that Sidney Smith who was a paid lecturer of the Anti-Corn-law League—who was a paid secretary of the Electioneering Committee of London, a report of whose bribery and corruption was contained in the work ho held in his hand, who had assisted Baron Rothschild in spending between 30,000/. and 40,00 W., who had amassed a private fortune, and had retired to a private residence—(Loud cheers)—who was paid as se cretary to another body to put on the registry those who agreed with him in opinion, and to pot off those who differed from him. Sidney Smith was a paid secre tary to the Customs' Committee, ho was a paid writer in the Dispatch, and, as a professional paid secretary, generally, he had been in the market for many years past, and now the employers had purchased him.— (Loud cheers.) If the workmen had wanted such a man they could have had him too, but they relied on men like George Usher and himself, who had worked in the trade from 14 years of age till a few years ago, or they might have outbid their masters and have ob tained the sorvicas of Sidney Smith. After some fur ther remarks, the publication of which would be libel lous, the salacr proceeded t o say th e y had b een e nabled to take a stronger hold on public feeling in consequence of the arguments that had been adduced in this case. He denied that the three de mands set forth by A " --micas" had ever appeared in any docoment or programme issued by the society, and he defied any one to say they had ever made a request or sanctioned a request that the labourers working ma chines should be discharged.—(Hear, hear.) It was a fraud practised on the London employers to say so, and they had been led by statements of this kind, and by the a ssertions in the letters of " Amiens, " into a combination against their workmen.—(Cheers.) The Times had from the beginning taken up the question with great zeal, and had favoured them with more leaders than any body of workingmen had ever been able to extract before, and, though it had lately railed against them, it had now be gun to attempt reasoning the question in what fashion he would show them. The Times Smithey would give the reason why the masters should not ive way to —® society's demands in a very few words. g It was this : " They cannot do so, because by such an act they would forfeit the indispensable rights of employers to make their own terms for labour in an open market." Why, the masters were complaining because they could not got men to accept their terms! The society did not deny the employers to get what men they liked, on what terms they liked; and if the masters only claimed the right to employ their capital in employing g men on such terms as the men would accept, h Iv ey not employ them on the terms the society and the men proposed?— (Hear.) That was all the society claimed. But there were some doctrines put forward in that article in the Times which he could not understand, though that might either be the writer's fault or his own, It said— " The known and natural value of labour regulates the value of the manufactur©d commodity in the markets of the world," You shall not get a job done by the piece instead of par celling it out, in day work, for though both you and the men whom you select may be gainers by such a bar gain, those shut out from. the job would lose.' " Now he wanted to know how both master and workmen could gain by the same transaction ? —():Tear, hoar.) If it was not for the advantage of the master it must injure the men, and the reverse held equally well. Ha con tended that the workman had no right to put six days' work into three days. Labour was not intended to work a man to death; it was given to employ his frame. not to deteriorate and demerit it; and if they gave him piecework till his physical energies were exhausted and ho was driven to the gin-palace instead of to the study, they did not give him the privilege to which he was justly entitled. He confessed they were desirous of di viding the wages given to 30 among 20, if it could be done with justice. The great fault of these newspaper writers was, that they cared for none but those who were in employment. The society, on the contrary, cared for those who were out of employment. He knew the best workmen in the trade who had been compelled to walk the streets in idleness for twelve mouths while others were working seven or eight days a week.— (Hear, hear.) The Times went on— " Having explained why the masters must needy be firm, we will now state why the men should yield. They should yield because their objects aro absolutely imprac ticable, and wholly inconsistent with the natural laws of society. They wish to secure the engineering trade from all the drawbacks to which every trade is liable as science advances and population increases. Increasing popula tion brings more hands into the market; advancing science makes the call for them less. Planing, slotting, and shaping machines' are instruments for superseding skilled labour in' shaping, slotting, and planing. " If their agents were " absolutely impracticable," there was no fear of their carrying them.—(Cheers and laughter.) The masters need not be afraid. But what a monstrous doctrine was it to teach that science and population in their advance should increase the draw backs on the employment of skilled labour!—(Cheers.) If that were so, why insist on any sanitary regulations, why erect barriers against famine, disease, and loss of life? why regret the loss of the Amazon? If the in crease of population was to have the effects attributed to it by the Times, better would it be to keep population down, and Waterloos and bloody fields, where life was lost, must be beneficial to mankind.—(dear, hear.) ;The Times said it was the duty of employers to produce as cheaply as they could, but he said it was their duty to do so, not by lowering the wages of workmen, but by in creasing the amount of the product. The Times further said, in another part of the leader, which effectually re futed the commencement— _ " As regards the withdrawal of the notices, there is no room for meeting half way. Mr. Newton's folly must be at once and unconditionally repudiated. We see the men are publishing resolutions' in defence of their in tentions. Let them simply, by withdrawing the notices in question, abandon their project of organizing labour in other forms than that which it naturally takes. This much is all the, is needed to remove obstacles otherwise insuperable. Then, having made this sensible disclaimer, let them represent to their employers—what the em ployers aro quite prepared to acknowledge—the good effects of regular hours, and such an arrangement of business as will leave the workman with a reasonable leisure in the evening." What did that mean? Why, that the employers would give them all they wanted if they would give up all that they 'asked.—(Cheers and laughter.) If they would withdraw the notices they had served on the employers, the latter would be in a position to remove " obstacles otherwise insuperable." Well, let the employers give them a guarantee that they would do as the Times said, and the thing was done at once. The men had not made the request for the sake of making it, but that the trade might be in a better condition. They would at once withdraw the requests on the guarantee that the em ployers should give them what they required. He did not [believe, as the Times said, that instruments for " slotting, planing," &e., were to supersede labour; they were rather instruments to save labour—to enable works which had been performed by excessive labour to be executed by machinery, and not to take away the labourers' means of existence.—(Cheers.) If the Times succeeded in establishing its principles they could not wonder if the working classes set their faces against the increase of population, and the advance of science. He did not believe that either had the tendency described. When the workmen became more intelligent they would see the use of the principle of self-improve ment. The position taken by the employers towards the workmen would force the labour classes to reconstruct the regulations between them and the employers. The steps already taken were not to be relaxed, but were ra ther to be advanced, and they should follow the example of their brethren over the water, and subscribe their money and tools to concentrate them in some place where they could carry out a proper sub-division of la bour, and not for the benefit of others, but for the ad vantage of themselves. They were willing to submit their work to the principle of supply and demand, but they were not to give seven days' work for six days' wages.—(Hear.) They had never demanded an in crease of wages, but a decrease of the number of those out of employment. But the employers had refused to come in contact with them, and they had discharged the men of deputations who had gone up to them. Individual remonstrance was indivi dual suicide, aed the worst thing in the conduct of the employers was their tracking a man from one situation to another till they had driven him from the trade or out of the country. He could give them instances of what he alluded to—there was a kind of conspiracy which pursued a man from town to town, and employer to em ployer. The men had not sought a strike, nor had they struck . even now, but they would resist tyranny where ever it appeared, and, when they had no other redress, they had determined to right themselves. Thu moral aspect of their position wa s just ; th e y h a d now n o more to do with their employers, but every ono would rely on his own honest exertions. They were prepared to appeal to the publi c f or th ose w h o did not b e l ong to th e society, and to support them, not for two or three, but for twelve month s an d l onger , if necessary— (Cheers) —till such time as they had established their own means of employment. Among the 12,000 workmen on the society were th e b est an d m ost skilled and industrious men in the trade. How could their places be filled up by unskilled labourers? The masters must have them —the labour of th e coun t r y cou ld not proceed without them. If only one workshop was successful it would show the practical character of the scheme, and there would be a suffieient inducement for them to raise a large amount of capital by their united contributions. Working men would no longer make overtures and concessions unless they felt them to be right, for they had self-respect and dignity as well as their masters. The society had 25,0001., a part of which should be at once devoted to their objects; and they had been offered a large establishment, with ma chinery complete, for a part of the purchase-money down and the rest to be left as a charge on the building. The number out of employment was much less than the society had expected. In Manchester they were only 650—(Cheers)—in Preston but 20—(Hear, hear)—and in London there was not only a number of men still iu employment, but several employers had conceded the demands of the men, and he believed there was great regret among many of those who had joined the body of employers, for they knew they would he compelled to withdraw from this combination and to settle the dispute by concession. —(Hear.) The Bristol men had just done what the council of the society wished—they said they would go on. Mr. Slaughter was a good employer, and they would have no piecework or overtime till the contest was settled. The council wanted every district but London and Manchester to do the same. Let them leave the matter in their hands. Not more than 2,000 men of the society were out of work, and there must be 10,000 in work; and less than one day's wages would be able to provide for those out of work. The utmost mo deration must characterise all their proceedings; the employers did not want to immolate them all, but they would dearly like to lay hold on some few, and make . them responsible for the rest. There west be no " ket tiag." Let the masters picket their clubs if they liked; they had commenced already, and the clubs bad been picketted with policemen; but they were quite welcome to enter, and listen to what they pleased, while the masters held their meetings with closed doors; no police men were there, and even the press was not ad mittsd— so that they could not hear one word of the bickerings, disputes, and dissensions that prevailed there. The speaker concluded, amid loud cheers, by reiterating his advice to the men to be peaceable and moderate. Mr. BRADDON proposed the second resolution, which was as follows: " As a means of removing the evils which beset the conditions of working men in relation to !he unjust eep duct of employers, we recommend the princi ple . ofteg self employment on a co-operative basis; and mee ting d opinion that workshops should immedia t ely be. t com menced by the workmen themselves, in ord er , that the business of the country may be proceeded with. carried out He stated that the principle had already successfully at Greenwich, ea tion had been de termined to extend it, and an and the men b e en there wore ence work to formed in Southwark,d rs to the which would a °°1 03 4 morrow.

There was, however, no alt e r na ti ve l e f t if the employers t h o ught tit to stand out and say th ey would not receive the workmen in inoffensive, into their employment.

[PRICE SD, masters to submit to what they considered a dictation on their part. He had been most anxious to see the matter a; subject of amicable reasoning between masters and men, and, had that been done, they would have settled the London trade for many years to come. The masters had no right to look out for any future pro gramme, or to suppose E uch would be issued at any future period. If the masters had met their men the trade of London would have been freed fur many years from those they termed " platform demagogues." H e remembered on former occasions the men had been treated with the greatest courtesy when they waited on their masters, though appearing in a hostile position to them, but now, unfortunately, they had got a person for their secretary who stood between them and the men, and whose works and writings were calculated to excite feelings of hostility between the two.—(Cheers.) Carry ing out that resolve, and speaking of it in an abstract sense, were two very different things, and they must get out of the position in which they were placed; for to live in idleness on the industry of others was what they detested. He was sorry the employers had been so indiscreet as to turn out men who they knew had nothing to depend on—(Cheers)—the very men whom they had been praising. as independent, but whom they now forced to depend on the society. The masters, by acting so, had dune the very thing they wished to avoid; they had forced the men to union, while it was union they sought to destroy.—(Hear, hear.) They showed the men union was the only thing to tall back upon whenever the employers took it into their heads to turn them out on the world, and shut their gates upon them. It appeared that the principle of the resolution had taken a wider tone than he had imagined, and that there were men of capital, as he was told, who seemed disposed to embark in the cause of the society, and would give ten thousand pounds as a bond, while a large company in Lancashire were also ready to assist them. —(Cheers.) The question had, therefore, taken a greater hold on the couptry than he had expected, but he hoped that they would well consider the mode of carrying it out.—(Hear, hear.) An OPERATIVE from the body of the platform claimed leave to say a few words. It would (as we understood) be suicide for him to join them, though he wished welt to the cause. He was not a society's man, and at the same time he was not willing to accept work against their principles; but he had no money, and if he did not work he could not live. The CHAIRMAN explained to the meeting at large the appeal of the preceding speaker, which was not audible in the hall, and then informed him that, under the cir cumstances he had mentioned, the society would assist him.—(L)ud cheers, and cries of " lle is not the only one.") Others who were placed in the same position would be also entitled to relief from the society's funds. The resolution was then carried unanimously. The meeting broke in excellent order after the usual vote of thanks for the chairman and "Three cheers for the Press." A crowded meeting was also held at the Goldsmith's Arms, Southwark-bridge-road. Shortly after 7 o'clock the chair was taken by Mr. John Laing. He stated that the meeting had been called for the purpose of laying before them what had been done in that district with regard to carrying out the co-operative principle. There had been two or three such associations started on that side of the water, and their desire was to amal gamate them all into one, so that their interests should not clash. Tho Southwark branch had been in treaty for the premises of Messrs. Horton, but ho was sorry to say that they should be unable to obtain them. 1 1 Ho was one of a deputation had that day waited upon the Messrs. Horton's man of business in the hope of concluding the terms on which the premises should be taken; but when ho stated the object for which the pro miees were required ho was plainly told that they wcnld not be let to any parties who were connected with the Amalgamated Society of Engineers, although ho pre viously expressed great willingness to let them. Mr. Laing stated that ho firmly believed this was owing to the interference of the masters.—(Hear. hear.) They had, however, other premises in view; and one em ployer had offered to do any amount of boring and planing for them that required the assistance of powerful engines.—(Hear, hear.) It was necessary to state that in this movement they were assisted by some capitalists, who would take the premises and be responsible for the payment of the rent, and would advance money for any amount of stock they might put upon the premises. In the progress of their work, also, as it advanced, these gentlemen would be prepared to increase their advances of money, because, as they expended labour on any raw material, its marketable value was enhanced, and that they considered was a good security fur any money they might require. At the same time, those capitalists would be bound not to take advantage of the position of the men, and would not withdraw their capital so hang as the moderate interest of ai per cent. continued to be paid upon it.—(Hear, hear.) Ike wished it to bo under stood that they did not intend to dissociate themselves from the Amalgamated Society. They went hand in hand with that society, and so soon as the general rules of the Central Association should be drawn up this as sociation would merge into it and become a branch asso ciation. They had received several cffsrs of work, and their prospects altogether were must encouraging. Of course they could not commence until they had premise=, but he had every reason to believe that as soon as they could state the place for orders to be sent to they should be able to find work fur a number of their mem bers.—(Cheers.) Mr. MONCIIR irquired how they were to govern the management of their funds? Th - e STCRETARY, in answer, read the rules, which, however, ho said were only provisional. They may be thus epitomised:—Rule 1. The name of the moiety. Rule 2. Authorising the raising of 3,6501. or more in 11. shares; no person to take less than 5 nor more than 25; deposit of 4s. per share; no shareholder allowed mere than one vote. Rule 3. Providing for appointment of three trustees, a secretary, and five committeemen to carry on the business in conjunction with the general manager." Rule 4. Mr. J. Laing to be " general mana ger," to conduct the working department, act with the committee appointed by the shareholders, and be re sponsible to the trustees for all money received; his salary to be two guineas per week. Rule 5. The three trustees to be appointed by a general meeting, ono to act as treasurer, and in their joint names all moneys to be invested, they to advance money to the manager through the medium of an order from the general secretary, signed by a majority of the committee. Rule G. Secre tary to attend all meetings, &e. Rule 7. Committee to meet once a month, or oftener; books to be always open to their inspection; one to retire every quarter. Rule 8. The business to be carried on in the name of the manager, the profits to be divided as follows:-50 per cent to form a reserved fund, and 50 per cent. divided among the shareholdrs; no dividend to be made while in debt. Rules 9, 10, 11, and 12. Appointing general meetings, mode of allotting the shares, and of making calls. The CHAIRMAN said it would be seen that the entire management would be under the control of the share holders. The reason why they had determined to con duct the business in the name of one person was that those gentlemen who for the last two or three years had been labouring to improve the condition or the working classes by establishing co-operative shops and stores, had found that one powerful element of success I had been in conducting the business in the name of one person. Mr. G. DAVIS said that they had only commenced their association on that night week, aed they had al ready got 27 shareholders, six of whom had five shares, and one ten shares, and the d e p osits were all paid up. Mr. CROMACH spoke to the advantages of co-opera tive associations. Lie ha d himself joined a co-operative bakery, and within the last two y ears they had paid 75 per cent. upon the money invested.

A NSWER OF THE EXECUTIVE COUNCIL TO LORD INGESTRE'S ARBITRATION PROPO SITION. Yesterday the following communication, in answer to the letter of Lord Ingestre, which appeared last week in our columns, was forwarded to the Noble Lord by Mr. Allan, secretary on behal of the Executive Council of the Amalgamated Society of Engineers, &c.:— " General-office 25, Little Alio-street, Whitechapel. " ufy Lord,—l beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the sib inst., in which you state that hav ing been applied to for your consent to become a trustee of a fund to enable the workmen to set up in business for themselves, you have recommended a settlement of the di3pute by arbitration, The Executive Council of the Amalgamated Society desire me to express their thanks for the interest you have taken in the dis pute between them and the employers of operative eugineer, and to state that they havo made a public declaration of their willingness to intrust their case to arbitration, and have written directly to the Masters' Association to the effect that, if they are desirous of seeing a deputation—one from the council of the An3Bl- g amated Society would wait upon them. The first of these they have not noticed; the last they have refused. We, therefore, believing that there is nothing left for us but self-employment, have determined upon adoplog that course, and this, I hope, will be a sufficient apology to your Lordship for any gentleman who, on our tic count, may have solicited your hauls as trustee.

" To Viscount Ingestrie." iracy of th e telegraphic The secretary received no fresh i n f ormation yester gdaayrd:ditalas r a es g p i e la c r t a t n o te ll e l o an f ethheesatecret, and its q b sence i s re• message received on Sunday night that the eatabksh meats there closed had only thrown out about 700 men, instead of the much larger number which was last week anticipated. In Preston it appears that the establish ments closed have thrown out of employment only about 29 members of the society. Letters were yesterday received from Brighton, Pres ton, Stratford, Woolwich, and other ,places, announcing the firmnets of the men, and their determination to render support equal to the emergency of the case. A letter was also received from the secretary of the Bristol branch of the society, stating that an amicable arrangement had been made between the employers and the workmen, so that the latter should continue at work; the conditions demanded by the steiety being agreed to by the former with regard to the cessation of piecework and overtime; both parties agreeing to be eventually governed by the result of the general struggle. This arrangement is regarded as a favourable omen by the London workmen. It has been before stated that a number of workmen at Greenwich last week subscribed a capital of about 3001. for the purpose of opening a co-operative work shop, and that they had already obtained extensive orders. Yesterday it was announced that a fresh order had been received to supply a 20-h orse p ower steam engine, together with the necessary accompany i ng ma chinery, for a saw -mill about to be erected in Pimlico. THE CO-O. of the East Lo li n a d s o t n n b ig ra h n t c a h v o e f ry the society took place nt the central club-house, Stepney, to consider the pr o p r i ety of adopt ing the propositions with respect to the investment of 10,000/. of the funds of the Society in the hands of trus tees for the establishment of co-operative workshops, as recently put forward by the executive council, and which was alluded to in our columns yesterday. Air. Eglin occupied the chair. Mr. W. NDWTON, in a lengthened speech, p o i nted out the advantages which, in his opinion, would follow the adoption of the plan proposed for the consideliationof the meeting. Il e said that at present many employers of the men who had been thrown out of work might probably be trading upon a portion of the money be longing to the Amalgamated Society—money which the society had lent to the banks at a low rate of interest, and which the bankers in turn advanced to the manufac turer at a high rate of interest. Would it not be better to reap the full benefit of the employment of their own funds than to permit another to reap the profit at once of their labour and their property? With respect to the adoption of the co-operative system, nothing was more easy to be managed at the outset even. S uppose the 10,0001. asked for by the executive council granted, it would be invested in the purchase of a plant and ma terials, which would represent the value o f the sour expended", and upon the security of which bankers would advance a reasonable sum of money, if re quired, to enable them to carry on active operations, just as at the present time they advanced money upon the plant and materials of man u f ac turers in general, i t being a well-known fact that by such advances alone the general business of the country was conducted. Well, then, they would open an establishment—invest their 2,000/. in London, their 2,0004 in Manchester, and the balance of the 10,0001. in other places according to cir cumstances, and so find employment for a large number of men, without the intervention of a middleman to !sap the profit of their labour.—(Hear, hear.) In Lancashire alone he wound guarantee the employment of at least 1,000 men, an extensive manufacturer in that county having offered to dispose of his establishment to the Amalgamated Society, which now employed about that number of men. As to the mode of employing them selves under the co-operative system, they must not be nice as to the description of work which they might have to do. Smiths must, if necessary, become simple hammermee, and other artisans be content to become mere labourers, but not at lower wages than others, as under a system of co-operation wages must be level, and all must share alike in the profits of the general labour.—(Cheers.) Let them only show themselves in earnest in the matter, and he would answer for the sue cess of the experiment. Want of money would bo no bar to their progress, for many gentlemen of property had volunteered their aasistance, and it was expected that a nobleman, belonging to one of the wealthiest fa milies in the country, would in a few days publicly avow his intention of becoming ono of the trustees. Mr. New ton ended by adviFing the adoption of . the propositi on , but after careful and mature consideration. Mr. ALLAN, secretary to the executive, stated that the council were in correspondence with the Lancashire ma• nutacturer referred to by Mr. Newton, and hoped shortly to be able to announce the purchase of his plant, &c., on behalf of tho society. Tito grant of 10,0001. from the funds of the society was then formally moved and seconded.: A discussion followed, in the course of which different members expressed regret that it should be necessary to apply so large a portion of the fund to purposes which had not been contemplated at its origin. All the speakers, however, concurred in the opinion that the co-operative system was forced upon them by the masters, and that no bates htep could, under the circumstances, be taken. Eventually the proposition was unanimously agreed to, as were also the* two others accompanying it, regulating the mode of investment and conditions ender which work :should he performed. These propositions, however, will cot be considered as adopted until fill!y sanctioned by a majority of votes throughout the society. The final decision will be known on or about the 20th inst. A strong feetirg perva4ed the meeting in favour of the payment of one day's waiks wally by those in wo:It for the support of those thrown out. WWSLUM OF MANKIND. On Friday, et the invitation of Mr. Catlin, the proprietor of the well-known American Indian Col lection, a numerous company assembled at his exhibi tion-moms, Waterloo-place, for the purpose of hear ing a description from him of the leading customs of the American Indians ; but more particularly with the view of bringing forward his proposal for found ing a museum of mankind designed to perpetuate the familiar looks, the new ufsetures, history, and records of all the vanishing races of min. Mr. Catlin's pro posal was made the su ' a j ect of a p a p er which wici3 i re ad last year before the Ethnological and Royal dimensions t,cz Il s to( ) f a be ll Geographical Societie s of London. The main fea ture of Mr. Catlin's plan consists in the procuring of a steamer of suit u c e u d n t a r s i e s a . the seaport floating museum,an hdthev that the s noveltyt e h the and cu t therein yt e e r mt e l i lei n ns tm e which:s i arranged, ul t is s . thought experience has sho wn t o b e necessary to the success of such . eollecti ona would be kept up, and that an exhibition so d ev i se d would not only be able to pay its expenses, but would add to th e value and interest of its materials. In th© first i ns t anc e the museum would consist of well-selected .--, lof the North, speci—ese. 9 South, and Central Ameri can races, and others front the opposite parts of the En globe, now to be procured in gland, together with the manufactures rage; and of th ese __ .-.les ; and after a visit to the seaport towns of the United Kiegdona, the mu seum would be floated to St. Petersburgh and the towns on the Baltic, ,from which specimens of the races of North Europe and Asia, with their manu factures, w ou ld be brought _ e,d. back for a second tour in The Englaild. Th cities of America would next be visited. With regard mthv to the is for carrying out the plan, which was already exertions, Mr. Catlin said that he would take all the risks and liabilities on himself, trusting to the support of institutions and individuals who sympathised in the dying races of man. He proposed that sub scriptions and donations should be set on foot for the more effectually promoting the objects of ' the museum, the money thus raised to be placed under the control of a board of trustees. For every pound subscribed the party was to have a free life ticket of admission to the museum, and for every 401. or up wards the donor was to have the privilege of travel ling in the vessel to any port at 50 per cent. below the usual steamer prices. Missionaries to native tribes were to have a free passage. The ship, with 200 feet of deck, was to be made of iron as a precaution against fire ; useful trades, the elements of knowledge, and the Christian religion, would be imparted to the abo rigines on board, and when it was considered that the institution had served all useful purposes by visit ing the various countries, the collection might be sold to the Government that would pay the highest price for it, and thus be perpetuated as a national institu tion of great interest and value. He thought there were few so well qualified from previous experience to carry cut such an undertaking, and his object was to elicit the observations of others in order to ascer tain in what particular the proposed plan could be bettered. Mr. Catlin was much applauded at the conclusion of his address. _ rfiaret --- The enormous circa TEE EXHIBITION CHART.—The • ins of last h p ( r b o y ex ceeding the most sanguine expeccomp y lation of the Weekly Dispatch, ontatSiounn 1 with the a p uno ors), has rendered it impossible that t o every purchaser ce ments previously made, threceive a copy of the should,en Exhibition; it 1 - Illustrated has, in conse quence, Chart of the Great . , , h a r o f t preparation,h the 4 untilth instant, Sunday, ,s -t i h l l e be s oft en - necessary to postpone the issue of a sheet Sunday, the 11th instant quence, been found n d a y every purchaser who was d'sap- February, on which pointed in receiving Orders may be given to all '' newsvenders titled to a copY demanding such carefulafucl in town or country, or to the Office, 139, Fleet-st ree t , L on d on .
