VEAVER'S LAIBUOCATION for GOUT, RHEUMATISM, TIC DOLOREUX, &c. of Copy of a L e tt er a dd resse d b y T revor Holland, Esq., Surgeon, Carmock, near Walsall, Staffordshire, on the 6th July last, to the Editor of th• `• Times " Sir,---I think it a duty I ewe to the publi• to make known the efficacy of a remedy which I met with accidentally, and Which has been of such wonderful benefit to myself. Some months ago I met with a very severs acc id ent, h av i ng di s l o- Cateil and fractured my ancle severely. From the great tender ness at the joist I was quite unable to walk, the limb con tinued very much swollen and adematous, and I suffered dreadfully from severe attacks of spasms in the night, which extended front the ands to the leg, thigh, back, and to the arm. Having exhausted every resource of relief which I and my medical frierds in the country could suggest, to no purpose, I set out for London with the intention of con sulting Sir Benjamin Brodie or Mr. Liston—thee t• adopt sea bathing. lily accident I met with Mr. Feaver, 16 Ludgate-hill, who applied his Embrocation, and, to my great astonishment, I had no spasm that night, nor have I had one since. The next morning I cane Town stairs without my crutches, and was able to walk, the swelling of the limb soon subsided, and 1 am pew rapidly recovering. Haying for many years had an ex tensive medical practice in the county of Stafford, I know of n • medicinal compound possessing such wonderful efficacy. In adding any testimony to Mr. Feaver's Embrocation, I am a c _ tutiled by no other motive than grati.ude to him, and a sincere desire to make known his invaluable remedy to my fellow-suf ferers. Possessing, as I ever did, the strongest prejudice against everything in the shape of quackery, I should be the last man t• uphold a system which, generally speaking, I know I° Las nothing but a nefarious traffic and humbug. " i are, your obedient servant, " TREVOR HOLLAND, Surgeon. " Carolled, near Walsall, Staffordshire. " P. S. At the various consultations held upan my case, the Surgeons and physicians (including myself) were decidedly of °Pinion that the frequent violent attacks of spasms would ter minate in lock-jaw, but, as I have before stated, I have not had the sli g h test symptoms of spasms since the first application °I this extraordinary embrocation.—T.

(From the Hamilton Gazette of Sept. 5.1_ The men of Gore, with whom the Gallant Knight is, from his loyalty and his exertions in the eauee of his country, inseparably connected, were delighted to .velebnie upon Friday 'evening, his return among them. At the, loyal village of Oakville, upon his en trance into the district, he was received with discharges of cannon, and with the cheers and hearty congratula tions of the inhabitants of the town and neighbourhood, .assembled on the wharf—Some of whom proceeded to natniltOn. Long before the steam-boat which con veyed Sir Allan had made its appearance in Burling ton 'Bay, crowds of well-dressed persons covered every height and promontory, and turned their anxious glances to the canal to watch for its approach. Can non were discharged, and no sooner had the vessel touched the wharf, than the cheers of thousands rent the air. Sir Allan, upon his landing entered, accom panied by Lady Macnab, a carriage drawn by four grey horses. 'The procession then proceeded, passing under two triumphal arches, and so numerous was the attend ance,. that the dense line of carriages extended from the Town-hall very nearly to the wharf, a distance of a mile. From all parts of the town and neighbour hood, in carriages and in waggons, on horseback and on foot, vast numbers of, persons proceeded to greet him upon his arrival. Upon his arrival at the Town hail, Sir Allan and Lady Macnab appeared upon the balcony, where an address was read to Mtn by D. C. Gunn, Esq. ; to which Sir Allan returned the very neat and appropriate answer which we present to our readers. Shortly afterwards Sir Allan was conducted with the same enthusiasm to his own house, there to find, in the bosom of his family, that repose which, after his untiring exertions in England for the good of this his native country, he so much requires. Here follows the address, to which Sir Allan makes this reply : The Address with which you have been pleased to honour me, on my return to my na tive country, and to the bosom of my family, contains congratulations and assurances of respect and attach ment, which I receive with feelings of the warmest gratitude ; they are such, indeed, as I know not well how to receive, nor in what terms 'to acknow ledge. Permit me, however, to say, that lam deeply sensible of your kind recollection of me during my absence, and, of the convincing proof of regard you have shown in thus • assembling yourselves together to do honour to my return. For if it is true, as a general rule, that a public man is seldom honoured in his own country, your kind and considerate conduct on this occasion leads to the•certain conclusion that my case is a very flattering exception to that rule. It is most gratifying for me to know that you have rejoiced in the reception with which I have been honoured at the Court of our beloved Sovereign, and the courtesies I have met with from all classes of the great and good of our father land—honours and courtesies which have left an impression of gratitude and pleastre on my mind, which no lapse of time can ever weaken or efface. Far away from the be lbVed circle that surrounded my domestic hearth, and the friends of my youth and manhood, these more than friendly attentions have cheered and sustained me through many an anxious hour, and enabled TO to overcome difficulties, and effect objects, which must 'otherwise have proved insurmountable You have most truly expressed any own sentiments in stating, that in the marks of respect I have re ceived, a high compliment has been conferred upon the whole of the brave .and loyal inhabitants of this noble province, since, as Ihave elsewhere had the honour to observe, I have never been so presumpt uous as to suppose, that any services rendered by me, either to the Colony from which I came, or the Empire Of which it forms a part, could possibly en title me to such honourable - marks of regard. During the whole period of my stay in England, my most serious and earnest attention has been given to many subjects of deep importance to the future pros- , perity of this country. If they should hereafter prove advantageous to its welfare, that circumstance, with. your approbation of my conduct, will be any greatest. and best reward. One great object of improvement in this country I have ever felt to be the oornpletion of the navigation from, the shores of Lakes Huron and Erie, through the entire course of the St. Law rence to the ocean, the paramount importance of which is so well understood, both in a military and commer cial point of view,--that..no. doubt exists of the inten tion of the Government to carry it into full execution. The financial condition of the province, some time since, would have interposed an insuperable obstacle to the accomplishment of this great national under taking, but I have aseertained from the highest autho rty, that her Majesty's Government have determined upon affording the guarantee of the Imperial Treasury to the loan appned for, by the Pro vincial Legislature, during its last session, which will enable us to proceed with all the public works and improvements considered essential to the promotion of our agricultural •and commercial prosperity. It af fords me the highest gratification to state that, in my opinion, the greatest desire exists in the mind of her Majesty and every Member of her Government, to promote the prosperity of Canada—and that her Ma jesty has declared her determination, that her North American possessions shall be maintained at all ha zards, and that she is graciously pleased to consider this Province an integral portion of the British Empire. Personal observations and intercourse have convinced me, that the people of England take the deepest in terest in everything relating to our civil and political relations, and -it is most unquestionably true, that by putting aside the bad feelings engendered by the spirit of party—by ceasing to agitate the mere ab stract principles of new and untried forms of govern ment, and by maintaining the strictest honour and integrity in our commercial transactions, we shall invite the confidence of British capitalists, afford a feeling of security to British people in seeking our shores, and thus give an impetus. to the improve ment of the Colony which, in a few years, will far exceed our highest hopes and expectations. You do me no more than justice in supposing that, as a loyal colonist, I could not contemplate, for the first time, without the deepest emotion, the colossal gran deur of Great Britain; and permit me to add in your own words " the land of my brave ancestors" — my heart palpitated, and my pulse bounded to the thought, that I was one of the subjects of that great and mighty empire, ruled over by a Queen who lives in the hearts and affections of her people:--an empire whose meteor flag, as you have truly and beauti fully said, " wherever it floats on the breeze, , is the emblem of •Christian hope, and of all the blessings of well-regulated freedom." This is that "liberty within the laws" which consists in an equal right to all the citizens of a free State to enjoy in peace and security whatever the Constitu tion admits to be consistent with the public good. In these blessings of wise and good government we par ticipate, with all our fellow-subjects in every country and clime ; they are such as are not enjoyed by any other nation or people in the world; and for the use we make of them we shall be highly responsible to Providence, to mankind in general, and to our own nosterity in particular.

There are not more than thirty clergymen included in the first publication of the game lists for the county of Essex for the present year: the number was, within a few years, more than double. CROYDON FAIR.—On Tuesday afternoon, about five o'clock, a shocking accident occurred to a number of individuals who were proceeding from Greenwich on a party of pleasure to Croydon Fair. It appears that when the coach had arrived at Beckenham one of the horses shied, and began to kick and plunge at a furious rate. The dtiver exerted himself to the utmost to re strain the animals, but in vain, and' when nearly op posite the church the coach ran against the kerb was overturned in a moment. The whole of the pas sengers were more or less severely injured. One gen tleman had several of his ribs fractured. A female of the name of Mary Killick was thrown under the , coach, the vehicle being upon her. She was laced in a car, and, by the direction of Mr. Ald. ilson. who lives near the spot, conveyed immediately to St. Thomas's Hospital, where she lies in a dangerous state. PORTSMOUTH, OCT. 4.—The Earl of Errol appeared this morning before the Mayor and a Bench of Ma gistrates, to answer a summons preferred against his. Lordship for striking a police-constable who was sta tioned at the King's Rooms, on the night of the ball given by the officers of the 16th Regiment, on the oc casion of the regiment being presented with new lours. Mr. Hoskins, the professional adv iser of his Lordship, endeavoured to impress on the minds of the Magistrates that the assault in question was of a billing nature; but Mr. Howard (the Mayor) being of opinion that the police-constable was struck while in the execution of his duty, considered the case 4 next should be decided by a jury ; consequently the Earl cf Errol was bound over to appe a r rough sessions. pA.TE NT TEA and COFFEE SERVICES.

(Abridged from the Manchester Guardian.) The examination of the 20 prisoners being appointed to be taken at ten o'clock this (Tuesday) morning, those was a very crowded Court. The following is a list of the prisoners : James Leech, Oak-street, Manchester, bookseller. John Campbell, Chartist lecturer, London. Christopher Doyle, weaver, Manchester. Rev. James Scholefield, minister and surgeon, Man chester. William Scholefield, schoolmaster, Every-street, Manchester (surrendered on bail). Bernard M`Cartney, bookseller, Liverpool. James Arthur, alias M'Arthur, Carlisle. Richard Ottley, tea-dealer, Sheffield. • George Juliin Barney, bookseller, Sheffield. John Thornton, hand-loom weaver, Bolton. • John Norman, Warrington. John Massey, weaver, Newton Heath. William Fletcher, Bradford. Robert Brook, schoolmaster and news-agent, Tod morden. Rev. William Hill, editor of Northern Star, Leeds. Thos. Brown Smith, "literary" contributor, Leeds. John Ellison, power-loom weaver, Stockport. Samuel. Parks, shoemaker, Sheffield. Thomas Railton, joiner, Manchester. Robert Marsden, factory worker, Manchester. Mr. Brandt, the barrister, instructed by Mr. Gre gory and "lif. Part, of Wigan, 'who conducted the case for the Crown, appeared for the prosecution. Mr. Cobbett defended all the prisoners except M'Cartney, Arthur, Smith, and ILilton, who said they would de fend themselves. The Magistrates on the Bench were J. F. Foster, Esq., who presided ; Daniel Maude, Esq.; C. J. S. Walker, Esq., and G. W. Wood, Esq. Sir Thomas Arbuthnot, Col. Weivss, Messrs. David Price, George Clarke, Thomas fownend, R. P. Willock, and other gentlemen, were also on the Bench. Mr. BRA.NDT said he appeared on behalf of the Crown, to state the charge against the present defen • dants ; which appeared ,to him to be one of a very serious and heavy nature. It charged these defend ants with unlawfully conspiring to excite her Majes ty's subjects to sedition and disaffection against the laws of the realm, mid to cause insurrections, riots, tumults, and illegal assemblies ; and by force, violence, and intimidation, to prevent certain of her Majesty's subjects from following their lawful occupation, or to force them to depart therefrom, and generally to dis turb the peace of the Queen. Unhappy differences had arisen between workpeople and their employers, into which it was not his business or intention to enter. The Court was aware that the proceedings that took place prior to the 17th August were characterised not merely by those circumstances which occasionally dis tinguish turn-outs in this country, but by a violent and illegal mode of turning out the hands who were willingly employed ; setting the constituted authori ties at defiance ; and, in fact, usurping their authority, until the strong arm of the law was ready to be, and was in fact called forth. Happily those disturbances were quelled. And during the time this state of things existed, the conduct of the parties now before the Court took place, which gave rise to the present prosecution. The charge against them was, that they had illegally combined together to foster it bad spirit which ex isted, and to excite the body of men who had turned out others by force ; and that they, by their resolu tions and conduct, did foster and encourage that spirit and even prompted it ; and that they did hold out in ducements to those misguided men to go to a greater length. Now, it was well known, that workmen were at liberty, if not content with their wages, to leave their employ. Combinations for that purpose, however dangerous, were still allowed by law ; but no one could believe that it could be allowed by law that any body of men, not themselves engaged in that la bour, and not parties to it, should combine for the purpose of excking others to turn out, even if it were only to obtain a higher rate of wages. But when that was accompanied by acts of violence ; when the conduct of these parties was not merely to leave their own employ, but by threats, intimidation, and violence, by the intimidation of numbers even, to induce those otherwise disposed to continue at work to leave their employ, then every person engaged in that transaction was illegally engaged in it ; and every person encouraging and sanctioning those pro ceedings was a guilty participant. But when, super added to those motives, there was the intention—by stopping the labour of the country, by compelling men to leave their employment—to effect a particular object, 'which object in itself might or might not be lawful, by such means as were clearly in themselves illegal ; if this were done for any other object than to gain an increase of wages, it was clearly and indis disputably an illegal transaction. And when that object was to make a revolution in the law of the land, to change the established law, by introducing into it that perfection which some parties suppose might be given to it, and that by means like those he had described, such a transaction was most clearly and seriously illegal. He believed he should be able to satisfy the Court that the conspiracy and combination into which the defendants had entered partook of all these ingredients. The present charge, which was one of misdemeanour, appeared to him to be a very merciful view of the subject, to bring it out in that character. He had now to detail the trans actions in which these parties stood charged with being participants. On Aug. 17 there appeared on the walls of Manchester a placard, a copy of which he now held in his hand. It was headed ' " The Executive Committee of the National Charter Association ;" and it was, addressed "To thelPeople," calling them "Bro ther Chartists." And he must say, that more dange rous, more blood-thirsty sentiments, as it appeared to him, could not be expressed than were contained in that document. When that placard appeared, the au thorities were of course exceedingly anxious to ascer tain whence it emanated. Thurinter, bold enough certainly, put his name to the paper ; it was found that it had been printed at the premises of a man named Turner; a copy of the bill, on which there were manuscript alterations marked, was found there, and it was clearly traced home to some of these parties. It was found that this did really emanate from what was called " The Executive Committee of the National Charter Association." All the defend ants, he believed, were connected with this Associ ation as delegates, and two of them held official situa tions in that Association. The defendant Leach was net only one of the executive committee, but he was also President of the Association. Another party, not now in custody, named Peter VDouall, was also a member of that committee ; and he mentioned his name because he expected to be able to show that the MS. upon the printed document was in his hand writing. Another of the parties before the Court, John Campbell, was Secretary to that Executive Committee ; and it included two other parties, neither of whom was in custody, making, in all, five members of tl e Executive. Campbell, as the Committee's Secretary, was probably the hand employed in send ing forth that document; but he would show that Leach had this document posted upon his own door ; that Mr. Scholefield also was instrumental in having it affixed on his premise s ; so that there was, by these parties, a publication of that -document to the world. He should show, that, on the morning on which that placard appeared, on the 17th of August, there was a meeting of different delegates, which was attended by all the defendants, and by others, amongst them Mr. Feargus O'Connor. This meet ing took place in the chapel of Mr. S lN c . l e i re olefi th e ln in Every-street: a nd all the defendants present. At the meeting of the 17th, a certain reso lution was passed.

EIGHT FIRES AT NORWICH Have recently been extinguished by SH ALDERS' PATENT PORTABLE FIRE— ENGINE. (THE NEW PROPERTY PROTECTOR). These Engines are carried by hand and placed immediately where they can assail the main source of the fire at close quarters, to the grea•est advantages; when they deliver their whole uniform streams of water directly into the flames with unerring certainty and such surprising impetuosity, that the tires are banged out before the common engines can be brought into action. _ If the engins lever be worked briskly with one hand, and the delivery pipe pointe.l at a window 10 feet distance with tke other hand, it will show how furiously, steadily, and irre sistibly the little fire destructor combats and conquers the terrific foe. Engines elegant, durable, and complete in Brass 61. 16s. each. N.B. There is not yet in existence a good fire-engine Ipon a large scale. At Alderman Butcher's fire the Patent garish Pump filled 12 large pails with water per minute, deli vering at the rate of 50 and the two Engines 30 barrels per ,iudr. But with the former Parish Pump (which was one of ;he best brass lift-force pumps of the London made trash) not IS barrels an hour could have been raised, and probably the flames would have gained the ascendancy. London is a century ehind Norwich in Hydraulic Machines. See " TUE SUN" paper, July 10, 1841, and "Norwich Mercury,"* March 5, 1842, where all my inveterate opponents are alarmed, ehapfallen, and laughed at, for they dare not even try to obtain the 100/. reward offered.

It is the greatest advancement in the useful arts in modern times, and cannot fail to act in the preservation of life and property from fire and water to an ex tent beyond ealoulation." SHALDERS' PATENT PUMP. At a Vestry Meeting held at St. Michael's at Plea, Nor .rich, April 25th, 1842, the Parishioners unanimously con gratulated Mr. Shalders upon having, last May, fitted the pari , h up with an efficient, permanent, economical, and in variable Pump (60 feet in length). It was rightly remarked, that although the water delivered by the former Pump was com monly cloudy, that delivered by the present one has been uni formly clear, and raised with half the labour.

Queen .itreet, May 26. REMARKS OF THE EDITOR OF THE "NORFOLK CHRONICLE," ON VIEWING THE PREMISES AFTER THE FIRE:- ,‘ About half-past one •'clock on Wednesday morning the premises of Mr. Butcher, grocer, Bank-plain, were discovered to be on fire by the night watch, who gave the alarm and called Mr. Butcher up. It was at first gitlicult to discover in the dark what part of the premises was on fire. Mr. Butcher thought that it originated at his neighbour's house, but going up to the top of his premises he perceived where it was ; when he came down and opened the door of his store-room over the back part of his shop, the fire and smoke burst forth so violently that he could scarcely stand on his feet. It appears that the fire had originated in this store-room directly over a paper loft, but how, it is impossible to tell. Mr. Shalders, from over the way, immediately brought two of his engines, by means of which Mr. Butcher attributes his house being saved ; and per haps the whole street, for there being a good deal of gnu powder on the premises, had this ignited the consequences would have been awful. Notwithstanding the natural agita t ion occasioned by the near prospect of danger from fire, Mr. Butcher himself removed the gunpowder from the premises, and most of the goods from the warehouse and shop were brought out and deposited for safety in St. Michael's at Plea Church. The engine from the Guildhall was on the spot within a few minutes of the first alarm being given, but it was impossible to bring this into play for some time, as the water was not turned on; but in the meanwhile Mr. Shalders' engines (Mr. S. working one and his brother the other) were supplied with buckets full of water from the pump near at hand. Mr. M. Yaringten and his men acted with much energy and promptitude. Mr. Steel, Mr. Plummer, Mr. Shalders, and others of Mr. Butcher's neighbours, were most zealous in their services. In about an hour and a half all danger was removed. Mr. Butcher is, we understand, insured in the Norwich Equitable Office. (The delay which appears to have occurred in furnishing the engines with water on the above alarming occasion, impera tively demands the immediate attention of the proper authori ties. If the New Mills Company's works are the rain public source of supply, some arrangements should be made for the more sure arid speedy turning on the water into the pipes ; or the city will sooner or later rue the consequences.] BY THE EDITOR OF THE " NORWICH MERCURY." On Wednesday morning, about half-past one o'clock, a fire was discovered in the house of Mr. Butcher, grocer, Bank plain, by the watchman on duty. Mr. B. immediately rose, and after examining hi, premises found it bad taken place in a store-room situated over the warehouse. On the alarm being given, Mr. Shalders attended with his patent fountain engines, and after great exertions the fire was extinguished before any serious consequences had taken place. Thero is not the slightest doubt that this fire would have been attended with a great loss had it not been for the fountain pump, and it was entirely by that and the exertions of Mr. Shalders that the fire wal so promptly extinguished, it being an hour and ten minutes before the engines could be got into play; and at the time the fire was dicovered the whole store-room was in flames, for on Mr. Butcher opening the door he was twice knocked down by the smoke and flames. but fortunately recsivcd no injury.

The Additions made t• the Life Policies granted by this Corporation for the last seven years vary from 41 to 65 per cent. on the premiums paid, and average 14 per cent. on the sums assured—a result, it is believed, more favourable than any other Company has hitherto accomplished, when the low rates of premium charged by this Curporation are taken into consideration. _ .

GEORGE KEYS, Secretary. NIVER SAL L IFE ASSURANCE OFFICE, 1. King William-street, London. The Rates of this Office, founded on the most accurate ob servations of the duration of human life, are as moderate as is consistent with perfect security. One-fifth of the ascertained profits of the five preceding years is divided between the policy-holders and shareholders; three••fourths to the former, and one .fourth to the latter. The remaining four-fifths are set apart to enter into the average of the succeeding years, and thus to provide against unforeseen contingencies. The first division of profits took place on the 13th of May, 18.10, when a reduction of 60 per cent. was declared on the current annual premiums of all those policies entitled to parti cipation. The second division of profits was in May, 1841, when a similar reduction was agatn declared.

Here was a resolution, as they said, upon oath, that the whole commerce of the country should he sus pended ; that thousands of -workpeople should be thrown into misery, distress, and want, till the laws of the land should be overturned, and. a new law esta blished upon the dictation of parties like these. he placard then continued— " Englishmen! The blood of your brothers reddens the streets of Preston and Blackburn, and the mur derers thirst for more." • They could not be ignorant of what this alluded to: .. The civil authorities in Preston having been scoffed at, abused, and resisted, called on the military to act and no doubt the military did their duty uncler the direction of the authorities of the town. They die charged their fire-arms, by which one or more lives These~ti as s° mgerneat'wearned el th dl a ed t m m o u re rde l r i e v rs es . were lost ; and the wo nd er i s , that their forbearance were e le not lost. continued— . "Be firm, be courageous, be men. Peace, law, and order, have prevailed on our side; let thewbe revered - until your brethren in Scotland, Wales, and Ireland, are informed of your resolution : and when a universal holiday prevails, which will 'be the case iii eight days, then of what use will be bayonets against public opinion ? What tyrant can then t!ve aboVe the terrible tide of thought and energy, which IS'. now flowing fast, under the guidance of man's iutel lect, which is now destined by a Creator to elevate his people above the reach of want, the rancour of des potism, and the penalties of bondage ? The trades-- (by which is meant, the union between parties to carry out their system fur keeping up the r a t e o f wages)—a noble, patriotic band, have taken the lead in declaring for the Charter, and drawing their gold from the keeping of tyrants. Follow their example. Lend no whip to rulers wherewith to scoarge y ou . Intelligence has reached us—(so that they were not ignorant of the state of the country)—of the wide spreading of the strike; and, within fi fty miles of _Manchester, every engine is at rtst, and all is : Ail!, except the miller's useful wheels, cal friendly sickle in the fields." And how had every engine been brought to rest ? " Our machinery is all arranged, and your cause will, in three days, be impelled onward by all the 'in tellect we can summon to its aid." Yes "intellect" was the suggestion; the word was used that it might not be said they were recommend ing physical force. "Therefore, the whilst you are peaceful, be firm ; whilst you aro orderly, make all be so likewise ; and whilst-you look to the law, remember that you had no voice in making it, and are therefore the slaves to the will, the law, and the price of your masters." They were particularly to remember that they had no voice in making the laws. " All officers of the Association are called upon to aid and assist in the peaceful extension of the move ment, and to forward all moneys for the use of the delegates • who may be expressed over the country. Strengthen our hands at this crisis.—(Why should these men call upon 'the.people' to strengthen their hands ?) Support your leaders. Rally round our sacred cause, and leave the decision to the God of justice and of battle." If there were any word or expression in that docu ment to show• the ultimate meaning of the parties, he thought that last word would clench it. This placard was produced at the meeting ; there was no dissent, ing voice to it; the sentiments of this document* were therefore those adopted by all present, and therefore they were all responsible for that which was conveyed by it. The address, from which he had read extracts, was proposed ; it appeared that an amendment was proposed, differing from the resolu tion in phraseology, but to the same purpose, viz. :--s " That the information laid before this Conference • does not warrant the people in mixing up the Chartist name and movement with the present strike for wages ; which was originated, as this Conference believes, by the Anti-Corn-law League." The Court would find that the meeting approved of what had been done by the Executive Committee in preparing this address, and wished it to be carried forward. After almost every one else had spoken — (and be believed every one did speak)—it was put to the vote, and the original motion was. carried by a very large majority. Therefore, whcever originated this movement, it was palpable to common sense, as well as law n that those who sanctioned it, being a case of misdemeanor, were equally guilty with its first promoters, and became, in fact, the promoters of its Its illegality had been discussed the preceding day. ; and Mr. 0 Connor mentioned as a proof that his opi nion o‘..itsillegality was correct, that, as he said he had just heard, the printer of the placard had been ap prehended ; and so, in fact, he lead been ; therefose there was proof, from these expressions, that this pla card had been the subject of discussion on the pre= ceding day. It then carne forth for the :approbation of the other delegates at this conference, where the illegality of it was again brought - under their notice; yet after this, the meeting requested that Mr. O'Con nor would insert this A ddress in his next palm.. .Ac. , cordingiv, in that next paper they had, in the way of coinincia, the very expressions used in the address presented by Mr.-O'Connor, and assented to urtanini ously by this meeting. " Brothers, these are not the times to hesitate * We are fortunate in having an accredited exe cutive, bearing the confidence of all, at, our head. They, too, have called upon you; you wiltread their address ; it breathes a bold and manly spirit.. We cannot withhold from them our support. * * From unanimity alone can success be expected: - Therefore, the acts of the conference and the exe cutive, at the very time, were published and approved by their authorised organ, the Northern Star; this address was published, which was prepared and re ceived by the whole assembly, which approved of what the executive had done,, and of the "'manly spirit" in which it was draw#; 4 / 44, consequently, they were all clearly participants in the ge s ilt of origin flitting, approving, and publishing that placard. Without further observations , he proposed to call the witnesses. Witnesses were accordingly examined at Feat length to convict the parties charged with e,oncoci ing and publishing the placard. They consisted chiefly of police-officers and a reporter of the Northern Star, a Mr. Griffen, by whose combined evidence it was traced to more of the parties impli cated. The witnesses were subjected to a cross examination by Mt-Cobbett for most of the prisonew, and by Mr. Bernard M`Cartney for himself. At the close of the examination Mr. FOSTER, the Chairman, said—The general nature of the charge brought against the parties who are here under a warrant, has been clearly stated in the opening of the case by the Learned Counsel for the prosecutiet. 'The case laid against you is this, that, after these dis turbances had arisen, you met together, and approved, in the first place, of the strike, and evinced a desire that that strike should be continued, and pledged yourselves further to do the utmost hind, ytetinrt power to promote that object; and you re that that cessation from labour should continue,he 1! y e nple's that it might enforce what you call illegal obJce t, ject, Charter. Now, that that object west an tie object by and that any agreement to promote labour, or by means ef a general cessationm labour which hid keeping the cessation t was an illegal con previously taken place — that that t. There are four spiracy there can be no dou h 't identified by t ewi nesses ; and, soners who are not i s no evidence before us, nor as to these four, there are the ' included " n the decision which the Court is y With respect to the elder S cholefield, about to give. we find that this meeting f washeld in his house ; th a t' he was presen t during part of the meeting, giving certain information to that meeting ; and that a pla card connected with the object of that meeting was posted on hi s premises. It is impossible -to say that lie is n ot im p licated in the charge.. With re spect to his son, the evidence against him does not d ir ectly to show him to be in concertw ith go any of the parties—the evidenc e a • • is s lighter against him slighter than perhaps that against any o f th when one finds him ther e at the time posting this placard, and that immediately that resolution was come t after,- and on this day than commit him a l so to o, one cannot do :the; wise offence. With respect take his trial for the alle.xed to Hill, the ground taken his advocate is, that he opposed the passing of the re solution in question, and so he did, but we have this reason given wh he did so ; but we have also that which is much m ore material that, though the reso lution was • • carried by a large majority, it was also resolved that the. minority should be beund by the acts of the maj or ity ; an d, after that, several parties pledged themselves to go to their respective localities, and carry out the objects of the meeting. Therefore William Hill is liable for the acts of that party whom he opposed ; and our judgment is, that the parties have all, with the exception of the four not identified by the witnesses, done that which makes it our, duty to send them for trial. The following persons were then committed for trial, but admitted to bail :—James Leach, two sureties in 2001. each, and himself in 4001.; ;John Camp bell, two sureties in 3001. each, and himself: jrt 6001. ; James Scholefield, two sureties in 4001. eae.`k, 'and himself in 800/. ; Christopher Doyle, two sureties' in 2001. each, and himself in 400/. • Bernard M'Cart ney, two sureties in 2001 . each, and himself in 400/. ; Richard Ottley, two • sureties in 2501. each, and him self in 5001.; George Julian Harney, two sureties in 2501. each, and himself in 500/. ; John Thornton, two sureties in 150/. each, and himself in 300/. ; John Massey, two sureties in 150/. each, and liiineelf in 300/. ; Robert Brook, two sureties in 2004 each, and himself in 400/. ; William Hill, t w o sureties in AOW.
