I when a man was determined to act, as a repetition of his story. Let them pour in upon that Parliament flick ar, prehension!, and they would make them honest in spite of themselves. Whatever course they pursued, he (Mr. O'C.) was at the service of that Conference. —(Loud cheers.) He stood with one, two, or three in the House of Commons, and they were called a factiots Opposition. He was as factious an Oppositionist as either of the three. He conjured them—he could not say to reflect, for they did so, but to recollect what th e y had *undertaken. They had the confidence of the people. Let them vin dicate that confidence, and not think of going until they had done something for them. They must not go back with merely saying they had seen the Premier, who had expressed a whining sympathy for them. If they could do nothing, the fault was not theirs. It was a fact that the people of England were brought to a state when suffering must have an end. It must end either in the grave, or by a convulsive movement. • There was no hope in saying they must look for a sunny day, or a better harvest. Such was nonsense and absurdity. The sun had risen, and night vibuld come over te people, and still there would be starvation. They must rise, then, to exertion. The Government's powerlay in a close phalanx ; their power consisted i n th e arm y and navy. They had the Church with them. —(Hear.) He did not mean any disparagement to the State Church, but he always thought it was in av awk ward predicament.—(Cheers.) Ile thanked them for the patience with which they had heard him , and he would assure them of his sympathy and best exertions, and he only regretted that he had not more power to be serviceable, and he could say that no human heart could throb with greater anxiety than his did to be useful to the people.—(Great cheering.) The CHAIRMAN said that before they separated they must recollect that the meeting of the Conference would be held again at 11 o'clock on Monday, at the same place, and he hoped that as many as possibly could re- • main in town would be present. The meeting then adjourned at four o'clock. ;a market , so that as •increased, be allegec i i stockings Fiy E i regard hat the dePr i f u every collo country ‘ v ckings for FROM NEW YORK.

(Continued from our Edition of Saturday.) On the admission of strangers at that hour, the Report was not read ; but we understand the substance of it to be as follows, and that it will be presented to the House on Monday night : •"fliat it had been proved that a compromise respect ing the late election petition for Belfast had been entered i-to, and partly performed by tw.) gentlemen on behalf of the petitioners, and the then sitting Members for Bel fast ; but it appeared that the then sitting Members and the petoners had no hand in such compromise, the two gentlemen having solely relied on their personal influ ence with their respective parties for the carrying out of such compromise. "That gross and systematic bribery and corruption had prevailed to a great extent on the part of the Conserva tives, at the late election for Belfast ; and that the per sonation of voters at the poll had also been resorted to, four men, in fact, having been brought from Monaghan for that express purpose; but. that it did not appear that the then sitting Members had been in any way concerned in, or, in truth, cognizant of such practices. " That all parties were agreed in representing that the registration of voters in Belfast was in a most deplorable condition, and required great alteration." AWFUL DEATH.—One day last week, a labouring man was employed ricking hay in his master's field, near Ivybridge, when a circumstance took place of a most awful nature. The atmosphere, which had been sunny, became cloudy, and a heavy shower of rain fell; the man, however, continued his work, throwing the hay from the ground to the top of the rick; but in a moment of passion he raised the fork high in the air, and swore that God Almighty might come and make the hay, for he would not. At that instant a flash of lightning, at tracted by the iron prongs of the fork struck him to the earth; and on being raised the unhappy man was dead. —Wiltshire Independent.

ANTI-CORN-LAW CONFERENE. C The Conference met on Saturday, at half-past ten, at the Crown and Anchor, and immediately proceeded to the official residence of Sir R. Peel, in Downing-street. On the termination of the interview the Deputation pro ceeded to Herbert's Hotel (late Brown's), Palace-yard. P. A. Taylor, Esq., took the Chair at one o'clock. Mr. FISHER, of Sheffield, rose and said that the first act of the Executive Committee after their arrival from the interview with Sir R. Peel, was to pass a unanimous vote of,thanks to their Chairman, for the modest, digni fied, and impressive manner in which the Deputation was introduced to Sir R. Peel.—(Cheers.) He (Mr. Fisher) was quite sure that the first act of that large meeting should be a similar vote.—(Hear, hear.) He would therefore propose that the thanks of the meeting be given to the Chairman, for the excellent and impres sive manner in which the Deputation was introduced to Sir R. Peel.—(Cheers.) - Mr. FREARSON (of Nottingham) seconded theanotion, which was carried by acclamation. The CHAIRMAN said, I have only to repeat the thanks that T tendered to the Committe e which I now give to you.—(CheerS.) It is . most gratifying to have their approbatiOn for any effort that I can . make in so great and righteous a cause.—(Cheers.) I have been identified with- this cause for years be fore - the formation of the Manchester League, and before Manchester 'was - aware of the coming difficulties, and coming evils, which these Ceam-laws would bring uPon Ibis country, I was one of that few in London, with the excellent Colonel Thompson as chairman, who used to meet once a week ik a very small room, for I am sorry to say that a small room was quite sufficient to hold us all in, Colonel Thompson was in the chair, the Secretary at the foot of the table, and only one or two more to form the Committee to carry on the work. That was the spark—that was he germ--that was the commencement of that great question which is now agi tating the whole community,. and which now, in spite of the coolness of Sir R. Peel, shakes him in his security. --(Loud cheers.) I can only again assert that I am always at your service. --(Cheers.) The memorial to the Queen was then read to the meeting. Mr. G. THOMPSON said that it was highly important that those gentlemen who were on the Committee should immediately adjourn to the Committee-roam, in order that every word which was stated in the presence of Sir R. Peel should be faithfully reported, and that every statement which was made should be inserted in the Morning Chronicle, and other daily papers, that would not hesitate to insert such important communications, and give them to the world. It was, therefore, neces sary that those who attended the Deputation, should at once consult together, and prepare the statements: The Deputies then adjourned to the Committee-room. The CHAIRMAN said that he would commence that morning's sitting by reading two letters which had come into his hand, one from Crayford, in Kent, dated July 6, the other from Mr. Johnson, of Nottingham. : — Crayford, July 7, 1842. Dear Sir,— If the following facts will not be too late for your purpose, please receive them. I thought the statement I sent to Manchester a short time since, would have been produced upon the present occasion. I am sorry to say Crayford is in a most deplorable state, dis tress is increasing to a fearful degree. Fur the last two years trade has declined here rapidly. At that time our block printers were all in full work at full wages, since which time they have not been employed more than seven months, on an average, in each year. Wages have fallen upwards of 25 per cent., and the men have received notice of a farther reduction. During the spring, the calico-printing has generally been brisk, but this year, spring has passed over without any spring trade ; last week;nrie of the two remainingfretories in Crayford, closed its gres, by which several hundred persons are thrown out of employment. Prior to this melancholy event, many families in Cray ford were subsisting almost wholly upon potatoes; tor is the distress confined to the manufacturers, as the wages of the agricultural labourers have, in many instances, been reduced 12 to 14 per cent. within the last four month:. How long this state will last, God only knows, I dread the coming winter.—Believe me, dear Sir, yours very truly, Sidney Smith, Esq. THOMAS MIDDLE'! ON. _ . Sir--Considering it desirable you should be put in posses sion of every incident that manifests the portentous signs of the times, which are becoming every day more threatening and gloomy, I beg to inform you that yesterday, and again to-day, a haggard, wretched body of upwards of two hundred famishing individnals, have been levying con'ributions on the shops and passers by—their im portunity was such that no denial would be taken, and at a baker's shop (where I was a witness) on meeting with a denial they declared bread they must have—and have it they ac coruingly did. And can it, Sir, be wondered at, when famine and misery invade the home of the industrious artizan, that he should seek to alleviate the sufferings of his family, by in vading the shops where provisions abound? It may suit the interests of such nien as Peel and Stanley to impiously attribute the present distress to causes beyond the control of man, instead of the corrupt and avaricious acts of a selfish aristocracy. But the people are awake to the truth, and the murmur of vengeance vrtay be heard in bur streets. Let the Government beware, they are slumbering upon a volcano, and however they may boast security, unless they promptly relieve the distresses of the nation, by promoting A market for labour, not only will the manufacturing and commercial interests be de stroyed, but the possessors of the broad acres, the aristocratic worshippers of Mammon, will be eugulphed in the same deso lation. Upon i and nqu l iry I have been most beentnl o t told that re the hosiers ia lace merchants e a r r n e hant, turning can off in many cases only realise for their manufactured article the value of the cotton. A gentleman who arrived here from Tewkesbury to-day informs me that most of the manufacturers there are stopping their frames • one hosier, to the numb er o f f ro m two to three hundred, andothers the whole. Nottingham, July 8, 1842. Mr. BRADLEY, of Nottingham, said he could fully corroborate what was stated in the last letter ; in fact, he would vouch for every word that the writer uttered. The lace trade was the one with which he (Mr. Bradley) was connected, and he knew that now that article was being sold for the value of the cotton. It was a light fabric, so that they would easily suppose that the labour must be very great in proportion to the value of the raw material. The amount of the increase of relief between the period of March, 1841, and March, 1842, was 50 per cent. The next quarter would show a similar increase. The relief was 1001. a week more than it was•this time last year. The increase of the people in the workhouse in one week was 25. He had this from the relieving officer. Thif was a circumstance unpre cedented in the history of the last twenty years. A remarkable fact in proof •of the superiority of the measure they proposed 'over every other measure was, that not one man who was ever in favour of the repeal of the Corn-laws, had drawn back ; they were more anxious for it now than ever, and were convinced that nothing but the repeal of those and their concomitant laws would rescue the country from its present distressed state. Without free trade they believed that the people of this country were doomed to starve, and many of them were leaving home for übroad who were the very bones and sinews of the community. The people at Nottingham had laboured in this cause a long time, and they had met with great obstructions. It had been urged upon them to begin again at the foundation. He thought with Mr. Cobden, that they should consider along time before quotation from th e Times, they dissolved this League, and mer ge d it in t o anot h er. lie shouldof It c a o r n e c h l , u l d B e 39 b , y w r h e i reacting as follows :—" W e a know the importance of a speedy Corn laws.dy revision o f th e We know that whetherthat revision come sooner or later, come it inevitably must. We say that to make it speedily is the way to make it safely ; but we fear we can discover from the tone of a large party in this, and in the other Houses of Parliament, that on this question, as on several others, all wi!l be I obstinately withheld until all must be disgracefully sur rendered. We cannot for the life of us discover the wis dom,ghhicall beenm acquainted the morality, or the patriotism of su o h a course." The following statement was read by M r . B ra d ley : ' In the, own of Nottingham and a distance of five or s i x m il es existed in round there must be from 8 to 10,000/. less mon,eycionncfiirrcmulead tion weekly now than in• 1836, which sufficiently a ccounts f or the threatening aspect of affairs to the shopkeepers, f t t o h h r e e A , st l oo r d mw e e prenmo time i a o t m n we o h i f w ; a ci t t i E ih h i A e h ß e s the g reateNsla'ot an state distress i do s t f reSHtohs He had i American markets, and he knew that there was considerable difficulty in getting payment from the Americans , because we could not take what they could give, which was bread-corn. Mr. LAWSON, of Manchester, stated that ho had been ears he sasa w orkman and m anu f acturer th o ught he could th row some in engaged t :he stofeokrit n h g ii t . r a tyi• e e , a light upo thei v i em e n su it required just as much time and labour to make a stock ing, now, as it did many years ago. Out of 100/. worth t b in jec t t he of stocking-frame wages. Ther e h a d b een no i m lg-frame for m any years ; of hosiery sent from Hinckley to the United States, there was a loss of 75 per cent ; and he would show them how this was, from a shipment of his own to the United States, the return fur which was to be made in flour. There were as many goods shipped as purchased 216 barrels of American flour. The American duty on the stockings cost 32 barrels of the flour, an d that duty, he would remind them, had been l a id on on account of our Corn-laws. The English Corn law in Liverpool took 42/ barrels ; the charges of conveying the stockings to New York, and the com mission there on buying the flour and bringing it to Liverpool, were equal to 59i barrels, and the cost of the yarn to make the stockings was equal to 31 barrels more. Now he would tell them what the American manu facturers had to pay. In his yarn 70 barrels, for profit 14 barrels, being 132 barrels of flour for the wages, in s t ea d of 34, which was all loft to the English manufacturer.— (Cheers.) The worst part of the matter was, that for whatever we sold the goods in the foreign market, that regulated the price in the home market, so that as they raised their hostile tariff abroad prices increased here, and wages went down. 'lt could not be alleged that this badness of the trade was owing to stockings going ; out of fashion, as had been urged with regard to the Paisley manufacture, for it happened that the demand for stockings was greatly on the increase in ev ery country in the world except One, a nd that was the country. which for • 250 Years had. manufactured stockings for the whole world. Mr. JOIINSON, of Derby, said it had generally been his good fortune to be able to speak better of the condi- flea of Derby than other Delegates from other districts. It was not so now, however, for he was sorry to say that Derby was suffering a greater degree of distress than it flad hitherto done under any circumstances whatever. Derby contained 35,000 inhabitants, and there were, perhaps, a greater variety of manufactures carried on at Derby than in any other town with the same popula tion ; and it might have been thought that the very fact of such a miscellaneous trade would have kept distress away from that town. Their manufactures consisted (If silk throwing, silk hosiery, gloves, silks, velvets, jewellery ; they had several foundries, machine makers, white lead and flour manufacturers. Now he would first call their attention to the foundries. One of the greatest in the place paid wages to the amount of 1404 a week a short time ago ; the proprietors of that fbundry had since added a new branch of business to their establishment, connected with certain parts of rail way carriages ; and vet, with this new branch, added to their establishment, their weekly wages only amounted to 50/. ; being a difference of 90/. within the last few years. In the machine-maker's trade the business had fallen off one-third. Mr. Fox, the great and well-known machine-maker, who formerly employed 70 men, in December last employed only 50, and now only from 25 to 28. Two years ago, Mr. Fox could not have taken as order to have executed in a less period than six months • and in their pres en t con dition, with only 25 hands, three-fourths of the lathes and other raacEnes were laid up in stock; There were in the town three or four millwrights. In one establishment, which he selected as an example, he found that thei•e were two years ago 28 persons em ployed. The owner never had occasion to discharge a hand until very recently. In December last the number diminished to 15, and it was now reduced to eight. In silk-throwing the number of mills standing was about seven or eight. Some new mills had been built during the last four or five years, which were engaged in throwing the .very finest Italian silks for the purpose of making fine laces, and it was owing to this circumstance chiefly, that the hands were continued in employment. With respect to the article of ribbons, which was a new and extensive trade, he knew one firm which had em ployed 300 Viands in that department of manufacture. They were now every week hiring away the very best description of hands. The CHAIRMAN said he was sure the gentleman who was addressing the meeting would excuse a few minutes' interruption in order that a resolution of great impor tance might be proposed. Mr. G. THOMPSON said he had been requested to bring before the meeting a resolution of a very im portant nature. The Executive Committee had delibe rately reviewed the proceedings of the Conference up to that time, and they had anxiously considered what was their duty in reference to the future. Though many remarks had been made with reference to the want of practical measures, and to the inutility of their opera tions; it was the opinion of the Committee that very great benefit had resulted from their proceedings:e-- (Hear, hear.) They had not indeed received any ex press ground of hope from the Prime Minister, but the statements which had been made in their various meet ings could not but tell with such effect upon the country as would compel the Government, in spite of wealth, power, and influence, to yield to the just demands of the starving people.—(Cheers.) It had appeared desirable, therefore, to the Eiccutive Committee that the Com mittee should not break up.—(Hear, hear.) He did not mean that those gentlemen whose duties, ministerial or otherwise, required their presence elsewhere, should not leave the conference ; but there were' a number of gentlemen who had determined that they would not nut leave the metropolis, but would remain together in an organized form for the purpose of effectin g t h e ()Eject for which they had assembled. In the present crisis of the gin stion, considering the state of the House of Com mons, and the motions pending in that House, con sidering, too, that the tone and temper of many Members was already favourable, and might be encouraged by the presence and sagacious counsel of men, from all parts of the country, it appeared most important that that body should continue its sitting, and even that efforts should be made to increase their numbers.— (Cheers.) He must be permitted for one moment to congratulate the meeting upon the character of the De putation which had waited upon Sir Robert Peel, upon the ability with which the interview was conducted, upon the value and importance of the facts which were stated, and upon the weight of the counsel which was so honestly, so plainly, so inartificially, so pathetically, so solemnly, tended to her Majesty's Ministers. He believed that no deputation ever felt more the responsibility which rested - upon them. Their hands, as far as that Deputation was concerned, were clear of their country's disasters, their consciences were delivered.—(fiear, hear.) It had been intimated that, possibly, the Conference might merge its existence in the existence of a body which should com prise other elements, and endeavour to obtain other ob jects. It was thought desirable that that should not go forth to the public until all hope had been en tirely excluded by the contumacy, the hard heartedness, and the immovable injustice of the present Government and the two Houses of Parliament. Under these circumstances, it hail been resolved by the Execu tive Committee, to submit, for the adoption of the meet ing, the resolution which he held in his hand. One object which they hoped to attain, by continuing assem bled, was the removal of the apathy which existed in the metropolis ; and they had a proof last night, in a Meeting of three thousand persons, that the people of London could be awakened to a just sense of the suffer ings of their countrymen.--(Hear. hear.) He begged respectfully to move—. " That this Conference being deliberately of opinion, that its continued exertions are imperatively demanded, both by the alarming condition of the country at large, and the position of the question in London; and being of opinion that their efforts have already been attended with effect, determine to remain sitting, and to use every constitutional means for the attainment of the ob ject for which the Conference has been assembled." Mr. MCORE rose to second the resolution. It had been stated in the House of Commons last night by an Hon. Member, whose name waseassociated with devil's dust, that the people were not with them ; to which it was most properly replied, that the people were only not with them because they thought their measures would be ineffectual—it was not because they did not . think that the Corn-laws were a curse, but because they were beginning to be hopeless. They had heard a letter read that day, which showed the progress of the discon tent. Let them continue to call upon the Government not to dissolve Parliament until the people had been re lieved. _They had had an interview with Sir Robert Peel. Why should they not seek interviews with the other Members of the Government, and with all those Mem bers of Parliament who did not concur in their object?— (Hear, hear.) He believed that they had the power of compelling the Government to relieve the distresses of the people before they dissolved Parliament, and in the hope that they would use that power, he cordially seconded the resolution. The resolution was then carried unanimously. The Rev. W. MassrE, of Manchester, said lie had not as yet had th e h onour o f addressing the Conference, and he therefore wished to say a word or two on behalf of those whom he represented. He proposed that the re solution now adopted be circulated amongst the corre spondents of the Conference. He was deeply impressed with the solemn and religious responsibility now resting on every man who was aware of the present state of the country. He believed that every man would have been repaid amply if they came and mingled their sym pathy, and banded themselves together, not for the pur pose of considering abstract questions of political economy, but to consider the operation of the laws on the condition of their follow -countrymen. He would propose that the Executive Committee should cause circulars to be addressed to the ministers of all religious denominations, and grateful he should feel if the minis ters of the Established Church were to join them, and the Roman Catholic clergy also. He should also ad vise that a circular be addressed to the Roman Catholic Metropolitan, requesting him to call the attention of his clergy to the present state of the country, and he was sure that they would be the first to sympathise with the poor. But whatever might he the denomination of the clergy to whom the circular would be addressed, they should be entreated to make a solemn appeal to Heaven on ,behalf of their famishing ebuntrymen, and to pray to God that He might be pleased to avert from our com mon country the fearful calamities now impending over us, in the ruin of our commerce, in the prostration of our morals, the destruction of our institutions, and eventually in a convulsion of the empire. He hoped this suggestion would be agreed to, and that the ministers would request the prayers of their congregations in behalf of the dying, the perishing, and the famishing people of the country — (Hear)—and that the country itself would be saved from anarchy and ruin. By such a course they would make their tyrants tremble ; for the greatest oppressors were the greatest cowards in the presence o f that great God who protects the poor—(Hear, hear, and cheers)—and if such were the case, no matter whether their tyrants were composed of a landed aris tocracy, or were personified in the Prime Minister alone, they would tremble when they were aware that suppli cations were universally offered up, on behalf of the poor, to the throne of Almighty God, who would jus tify His name as the friend and protector of the poor and the oppressed.—(Cheers.) \The Rev. Gentleman concluded by proposing the following resolution, which Was seconded by Mr. , Alderman Kershaw, and passed unanimously : " That this resolution, embodied in a circular, Ice ad dressed to all the correspondents of the Conference." The Rev. J. MORGAN, of - Stourbridge proposed the next resolution, which was as follows : " Resolved, That a circular be prepared, addressed to ministers of religion and their congregations in the metropolis, imploring their supplications on behalf of the distressed people, that God in his mercy may arrest the fearful calamities impending over the country." Mr. JOSEPH FREARSON having seconded it, the follow ing circular was adopted on the motion of the Rev. Mr. MORGAN : " Dear Sir,—The details of suffering and distress which have been laid before the Conference during the hi,it five days are most fearful, " This day the Delegates have had an interview with the Premier, who thanked them for the information, confessed the accounts of the distress were incontroverti ble, and promised to lay the statements before the, Go vernment. The Conference is of opinion that useless something be immediately done to relieve this wide spread distress, the most deplorable consequences may arise. The case and position of the people is desperate. To prevent outbreak, and avoid convulsion in the coun try, it is necessary, if possible, that the House of Com muns should not be prorogued till measures are taken to procure justice for the people. " After the interview with Sir Robert Peel, the Dele gates met at Palace-yard, and passed the following re solutions [for which see another part of onr Report]. " Allow us, therefore, strenuously to urge you to send up zealous Delegates to the continued sittings of the Conference. "There is no time to be lost. Be up and doing. " I am, dear Sir, yours respectfully, (Signed on behalf of the Conference), "P. A. TAYLOR, Chairman." Mr. O'CoaneEnn rose amidst tremendous cheering, and said, he did not mean any unbecoming levity when he ' styled this meeting a Conservative one. He did believe it to be conservation of the constitution of social order, and - intended to protect the people against themselves, as well as to protect them against their oppressors. The State was at the present moment in peril. He had.raiaed his warning voice in the House of Commons last even ing, but he had there met with little sympathy, and less support. He would advise them to adopt his old motto, " Hereditary bondsmen know ye not, Who would be safe, themselves must strike the blow." The only fact that they were all agreed on was the enormity of the distress—the pressure of that distress-- the continuous nature of that distress, and the tot a l wan t of any propos a l on t h e part of the Government for its relief.—(Hear, hear.) lie understood that whey, they had waited on Sir Robert Peel this morning, Sir Robert had kept his mouth closed.—(Cheers.) Thgre_ would not have been so much harm in that, if the people also had not been obliged to keep their mouths closed for want of food.—(Hoar, hear.) It was a sad thing that a man should take and should keep the Government of a great nation like this —should admit the dreadful state of the distress exist ing —and should offer only mere lip-service exprev sions of sympathy—(Cheers) —and admit that he had no project for its relief.—(Hear, and cheers.) Let them tell him any locality in which the distress did not prevail.—(Cries of " None, none.") Was there one halcyon spot —one oasis in the desert?—(Cheers.) Could they find him any locality, however small, in which dis tress did not prevail ?—(A voice in the room, "Down ing-street.") Downing-street, he was told. The gentle man must excuse him, but he did not believe they were so very comfortable there.—(Cheers and laughter.) In Downing -street they had an interest in the prosperity of the nation, because .the more pr os p erous t h e nat i on was the greater would be their share of patronage.-- (Hear, hear.) But they had an equally tremulous interest in the security of the State, because there was not one of them but must feel the immi nent danger that they themselves must be in if the country - was at its last hour—(Hear, hear)—and if, instead of social improvement, they were to have the frightful yell of revolution.—(Loud cheers.) He depre cated that.— (Cheers.) Ile was sure that there was not one who heard him would not agree with him, that there was no political change that would not be too dear if l it were purchased at the expense of a single drop of blood.—(Cheers.) If their counsels should he taken—if their advice should be listened to—the country would be safe.—(Load cheers.) But if the Premier continued silent, and the Parliament neutral, God help the suffering people.—(Loud cheers.) It was now time to speak out.—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) He would not say so if he did not think it necessary, and in his opinion one of the most alarming symptoms of the present crisis was, the dumb-like stupidity of the Go vernment.—(Loud cheers.) In London they did not see that distress. All those who possessed any property flocked to London.—(Hear, hear.) They did not hear ' the cry of the mother, as she put her child to bed with out food. They did not see her hunger-famished countenance, her languid step, or hear the throbbing of her heart, as she wished her first-born dead that it might escape from the pangs of hunger:--- (Cheers.) They saw those things ; the Government did not. The country was in great misery ; particular state ments might be denied, but those were but straws upon the torrent. The straw might be removed, but the torrent of misery went overwhelming the whole country.— (Cheers,) In Ireland they were in great distress ; from Belfast to the south-west coast the people were crying for 'fi.iod. —(Hear, hear.) But although Ireland was suffering, there was no patriotic Englishman who had a greater feeling for the distress of England, who was more desirous of alleviating it, than himself.—(Cheers.) He came there for instruction as to what he was to do. (Cheers.) He did not care being taunted as factious. —(Cheers.) In all his efforts in the cause of civil and re ligious liberty he had been called factious, rebel, traitor. He cared not what they called him.—(Cheers.) Much had been said of a factious opposition to the public busi ness in the House of Commons. What public business could be more urgent than to provide food for the starv ing people ?—(Cheers.) The people were starving. There were 1,500,000 quarters of corn, which by a reso lution of the House of Commons might be let out of bond in a week, and they would not let it come out, be cause they were determined to keep up their rents. If they had fermented the Anti-Corn-law agitation with a little agitation upon the extension of the Suffrage— (Loud cheers)—it would have been better. Did the House of Commons represent the people of England ? No.—(Lodd cheers.) It represented only that class whose interests were diametrically opposed to the peo ple, whose interest it was to make the poor man pay a shilling a slice for his bread, and that was protection.— (Cheers, laughter, and cries of "Robbery.") That was a "good word—it was robbery, direct robbery. Lord Howick, it seemed, had proposed a 6s. fixed duty. He (Mr. (O'Connell) was as opposed to that as he was to a sliding scale. A fixed duty was a fixed injustice, and he trusted that the Conference would repudiate such a proposition. The Reform Bill did good by abolishing the nomination boroughs, but it did harm by bringing them back in another shave. The representation had now reached the corruption point. If in a constituency of 2,000, there were 800 Whigs and 800 Tories, the other 400 would get 10/. or 201. a-piece for their votes to them ; the balance, as was in the case of Harwich, the last six votes, might get 5001. each. The representation was composed of the landlord class, and without uniting themselves to the people they never could overcome that class legislation. (Cheers.) However honestly, zealously, conscientiously, 'and charitably they might struggle, their struggle would be in vain, unless they joined with the pesple.—(Cries of " Hear.") He and his friend Thompson fought for the black and he had no notion whatever, that after having ob tained freedom for the black man, the same thing should be denied to the white man.—(Hear, hear.) It was too bad.—(Cheers.) It was too afflicting. But, above all, the calamities which followed from it were manifest. They had the 800,000,000/. of debt pressing on the in dustrious portion of the country, and keeping from them the full power of competing with foreign nations, caused by misrule, and the people not being represented. They must stop him if be was going too far.—(No, and loud cheers.) He wished not to deprive any man of his opinion. He was not there to offer the slightest offence to those who differed with him in political opinions, but he was there to perform a sacred and solemn duty—a duty that he owed to those numerous constituencies, more than one of whom had sent him to Parliament—a duty he owed to the Scotch people, as well as a duty he owed to thepeople of England.—(Loud cheers.) They had heard him with much patience. They had heard many men address them, but they had heard no man more sincerely anxious than he was for the promotion of the cause.—(Cheers.) They wanted two things. They wanted to give the people food—they wanted to- give them employment—they wanted to open the channels of commerce for them. They did not want to drive them to violence or outrage. They wished to preserve every man's property. That man was: not honest who would wilfully consent to the destruction of a farthing of an other man's property. It was no matter whether it was paltry thieving or open violence. Whether it was a single pickpocket or an entire multitude that committed the crime ; the crime was only greater in the one case than in the other, in consequence of its greater facility. They were there for conscience sake, as well as charity, to protect property, and, as he said before, to be the conservatives of social order.--(Load cheers.) In making this struggle it was not enough to be roused by animated speeches addressed to them, and many talented speeches they had heard. It was not enough to admire the sentiments they contained. This was not a question of talk, but of action.—(Loud cheers.) It was not a question for the ebullition of sen timent, but unremitting practice. A political writer in Ireland—who did not mean to do so —gave advice to the people consisting of three short words, " Agitate I Agitate ! ! Agitate ! ! !"— words of ill omen in a state of prosperity in the material and political world, but words • of absolute necessity where the country was diseased, and the public sufferings un bearable. They would look forward if the Conference agitated ; they would confide in them if they agitated. While the House of Commons held out no hope, let the Commons Corn-law Conference be animated to greater exertions, and they would give hope to the peope. Let them not sink .under the criminality arising from despair. These topics had °emir ; red to the m many and many a time. Oh the recurrence of them not prevent them from determi nationlva to act. The City of London itself, p e b b aP7 Th 'They not agitated upon the question as it ought to_ e t e must take means to learn the statemtheontlsdiola of h golden city. He had already described stream that was running through the land west end of Lond on . That Pac- . o sp fr r on ea i d t i h t e s influence over the country, and yet. the country knew not a cessation from actual misery—from actual starvation.—(Hear.) He hoped they would petition the p arliament pp i n . There was nothing so useful, SPORTING. All things considered, the July Meeting has passed off well. There was a moderate attendance of the fraternity certainly, but there were quite as many races as a ten years' average induced m e t o an ti c i pa t e. I do not desire mom than five races, and thanks to the judge, but not to Colonel Peel, we h a d thi s num b er on Tuesday. Who would have supposed that the Gal lant Colonel would pay forfeit in a thousand pounds match, and live to discover that he would have won in a trot ? I must beg leave to compliment Lord George Bentinck for his gallant bearing on this oc casion ; his Lordship, I am convinced, would have run the match, bad chance as he must have known he had with so moderate a horse, beaten at even weights (in the match he had to give 51bs.) two lengths or more in the July by Murat, the horse afraid to meet him single-handed. So wretched a July. Stakes I never remember; the field dwindled down to six, and the betting was limited to one, for one only was backed, and that was Lord Exeter's. The winner, own sister to Euclid, is about fourteen hands two inches high, and, in consequence of the shocking bad performance of Equation and Menalippe in the two previous rates, was no t b ac k e d f or one penny. Farintosh, said to be a roarer, was last ; so magnificent a yearling, so perfect a formed animal is this, that he has upwards of thirty engagements, and is responsible for a sum of money that am afraid even to guess at. Very few members of the rooms were on the Heath, but in the club waggon I observed the Duke of Portland, and, I be lieve, the now father of the turf, the veteran General, General Grosvenor. I was reminded of very different times. The meeting of the Club took place this day. The Club were here informed, by one of its most influen tial members, that several gentlemen accustomed to attend Newmarket, and who took an interest in the turf and its proceedings, had expressed their wish to be permitted to pay the whole of the sum of money awarded as damages in the late trial, "Thornton v. the Stewards of the Jockey Club," by so doing to express their undiminished confidence in their legiti mate tribunal, and to mark their sense of disgust at the very unsportsmanlike proceedings that have lately taken place, encouraged by a Noble Lord, a member of the Club, in all other matters sans reproche. The same gentleman, as I was told, informed his brethren that, of course, the Club could listen to no such pro posal. The money is to be paid out of the funds of the Club. The betting in the evening ranged over the many great races to be decided in the ensuing three weeks. It was amusing on Wednesday to see Mr. Tatter sall put up and knock down, sans buyers and bidders. The attempt to sell was a complete farce, and I ques tion if a single lot found a purchaser. The Duke of Grafton wisely deferred the sale of his yearlings until the October meetings. For the Garden Stakes twenty-six horses were named—five a John Day's, six of Kent's, six. of Edwards's, three of Lord Exeter's, and two of the Duke of Portland's ; strange to say, only two of the whole lot were willing to accept,`consequently there will be no Garden Stakes, 1842. Until after the Chesterfield Stakes I was rather un decided as to the quality of the two-year-old perform ers in the July ; I now pronounce them a very mode rate lot ; nevertheless, the fact that the first and second in the race on Tuesday, carrying respectively 91bs. and 41bs. extra, were second and third in the race on Thursday. Scott's horse, known to be dead amiss, was first favourite ! What a stable it is—no matter whether horses cough or have but three legs, they are sure to be backed. The winner, Canton, is in the Derby, having but one engagement previous— he is in the Criterion Stakes. I never saw a prettier race for the Chesterfield; seven out of the nine that started ran so close together that the jockey's knees must have suffered considerably. The Marquis of Exeter has again been unfortunate —second in both races—but even this is an amend ment on the last few years. His Lordship has a good looking Derby lot, and I hope they may not belie their looks : there are not above two real good horses training at Newmarket at this moment. For the Town Plate, Seahorse, backed against the field, was beat easily. In looking at public running, it is necessary to observe particularly distance, and whether a race be a fast or slow run race : some horses can almost fly for a quarter of a mile ; run the same two miles, and a hack will beat them. You may now comprehend how the horse that beat Balink.eele, Robert de Gorham, winner in the Rowley Mile Plate, succumbs to Bridegroom and Ma Mie. I shall speak of the approaching Liverpool Meeting on Monday. JUDEX. July 9. A HUSBAND POISONED BY HIS WlFE.—Great sensation has prevailed in the parish of Caerwys, and the vicinity of the Vale of Clwyd, Denbighshire, in conse quence of the death of an aged farmer, who died from the effects of poison, under the following circumstances : —The deceased, whose name is Robert Roberts, 77 years of age, held a small farm in the parish of Caerwys, at the distance of half a mile from the town, on the Holywell road. About two months ago he became enamoured with a girl of nineteen, who lived servant at an adjoin ing farm; he proposed marriage to her ; and she, seeifig that he had a comfortable home, and that he was pos sessed of some property, consented, and they were sub sequently married. Since that time it appears they have lived unhappily. On Friday, the 10th ult., the prisoner went to Holywell, and purchased there some arsenic, and on the following Sunday administered the same to her husband in some mashed potatoes. He subsequently complained of great sickness, and excruciating pain of the chest and bowels ; he walked out of the house, leaned over the pig-stye wall, and vomited ; a sow that had lately littered ate up the contents, and died almost instantly. The deceased lingered till five o'clock on Monday morning, when he expired. An inquest was held on the body on Tuesday, when the Jury returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder" against the prisoner, Hannah Evans. She was apprehended on the 17th, and com mitted to Flint Gaol on the charge of administering poison to her husband Robert Robarts, with intent to murder him. Since her committal she admits the deed, and that she was instigated by a young man, the son of a late mistress, who had some time promised marriage to her, and with whom she had been very intimate, both previous to and after her marriage to the deceased.— ..Shrewsbury Chronicle. SUICIDE IN THE REGENT'S CAN'AL.—An inquest was held on Thursday at the City of Paris, Bonner's-fields, Beth nal-green, before Mr. Baker, on the body of John Smith, aged 48, a brickmaker. Anp Smith said that the deceased was ber husband. He bad been drinking all day on Saturday last, and at ten o'clock at night when he returned home he was much excited by liquor. He brought in with him a pint of beer, and while witness went up stairs to give some of it to her son, he left the room. Witness did not see him spill until Wednesday l as t, w h en hi s b o dy wa s found in the Regent's Canal.
