The delegates from the united trades of the country met this morning, at half-past nine, at the Parthenium Room, St. Martin's-lane ; T. S. Duncombe, Esq., in the chair. Letters were read from Worcester, Birkenhead, and Edinburgh, expressing their concurrence in the objects of the conference and their determination to support those objects. Mr. FIRTH, delegate from the plasterers of London, moved that the names of delegates on each division be published. Mr. FLEbITNG was of opinion that it would answer no useful rurpose to publish the names of delegates voting on all occasions. Such a course might be useful on certain occasions, but not indiscriminately. Mr. FIRTH, seeing the sense of the meeting against his motion, withdrew it. Mr. WHITE proposed that the names of the delegates who voted on the fourth resolution (yesterday) be printed and entered on the minutes. The motion was seconded, put, end carried. The CHAIRMAN said the next point the delegates had to cot Sider was whether 6. The Central Committee should be instructed to carefully prepare a constitution for concentrating the energies, legalising the proceedings, and giving practical effect to the growing desire for location in the land, and other measures for the profitable employment - of the funds of such unions as might be desirous of thus using them. Mr. FLEMING, in supporting the resolution, said that he thought it would be much better, in the present state of public opinion, to avoid consolidation, and make the Committee a medium for collecting useful information, and upon that information to prepare the best constitu firm they could for the support of the trades, and then to put that constitution in practice. Mr. PASQUIL (miners) moved an amendment to leave out the words after the words " desire for," and to insert the words, " and, therefore, giving practical effect to the growing desire for a general trades' union." After some discussion the amendment was withdrawn. Mr. GEORGE WHITE then proposed a second amend ment, "'That the consideration of the 6th resolution b postponed ; and that a Committee of seven persons be appointed to collect the views of the delegates present on the 6th paragraph, for the purpose of founding a resolution thereon, so that the opinion of the Conference be condensed, and placed before the country." The CHAIRMAN put the amendment, which was negatived On the original resolution being put, Mr. TAYLOR moved an amendment, which was subse quently withdrawn. Mr. numeric then moved an amendment to the same effect, but The CHAIRMAN said it would be unfair to receive that amendment after the other delegates had withdrawn theirs, especially after guarantee had been given that the subject would be fully discussed in another stage of the proceedings. Mr. DUNNING would not withdraw his amendment. The question was put from the chair, whether an op portunity. would be given to that delegation to discuss the question, and it was decided by the Conference that the subject was intre duced prematurely, and should not therefore be discussed. Mr. PRIOR was sorry and astonished that the dele gates should so long delay the discussion of the real question for their consideration. He believed the best effects would be produced from different trades forming themselve s into unions to protect themselves. Ile be lieved that labour might be created if there was only a proper understanding among the trades, and that would create the means of consumption, which was the great object they had in view. The CHAIRMAN suggested that the word " plan" should be substituted for " constitution." The resolution was put in the amended form and carried. Mr. WAINE begged that, as the delegates from the country were put to much trouble, and to considerable expense, by a residence in town, that the addresses of members of the Conference should be as brief and as mush to the point as possible. Too much time had been wasted by delegates listening " to their own swee t voices," and he trusted that, for the future, eloquence would be discarded, and business attended to. There were no less than thirty-f .ur of the London dele gates absent that morning, and that certainly furnished but little encouragement for the country deli gates to re main in town. Mr. WKrrE, in order that the Central Committee might be in possession of the opinion of all the delegates, would make the follow ing motion :—" That it be an in struction to the Central Committee to recommend the trades to adopt the principle of endeavouring to become proprietors of their own labour, by forming local societies for that purpose, on rules to be here after placed before them, a portion of which rules for the establishment of stores for the benefit of the members, and manufactories for their employ, thus enabling them to apply the profits arising from their labour and the stores above-mentioned to the rental of purchase of land for the use of the members of such trade.' He felt confident that the trades of England if they wanted to raise themselves from the slavish position they occupied, they might du so—(Cheers)—and they might depend uron it if they made the attempt they would occupy next year a very different position to what they did at present.—(Cheers.) What, he would ask, was the position of the working-classes now ? Why, nothing but machines, for the benefit of others—(Cheers)—who had capital while they had not. — (Cheers.) If they all joined together they would havecapi tal to preserve themselves from being cheated by others. He wished the delegates, before they separated, to give a pledge to c cacti other to support one another, and thus prevent them from being the slaves of te profit makers.—(Cheers.) Mr. SEELToN, in seconding the resolution, adverted to the incompleteness of trades' unions for the purpose of protecting the labourer, because machinery was brought to such a state of excellence, that half the labourers were unemployed. The delegate went into a number of statistical details to show that while manufactures had increased wages had diminished ; and he argued that strikes had only wasted the strength of the work men, without in the least degree improving their con dition. Mr. EVANS said that some hundreds of years ago the working man could command any price for his labour, and there were enactments upon the statute-book limit ing the remuneration for that labour, but now there was a power in this country created by machinery equalling in amount that of 600,000,000 persons, while it was well known that the three kingdoms only comprised a population of 30,000,000. With this extraordinary power to compete with, it was no wonder that the working man was obliged to succumb. What was the remedy ? He would point out as the first, and of most importance, that of emigration. There were lands in America to be purchased at a very low calculation—why should the trades of England not invest some capital of their own in this species of property ? They might also obtain land in Venezuela without any sinking of capital, because the ruling powers there wished to people their land. There was a , present only a population of some one million there, while the surface was three times that of this country. The speaker compared the fertility of the American soil with that of England, and eulogised the former, as returning. its riches without any labour on the part of the husband men. There they had also to pay scarcely any taxes, while in England they were charged at least 10s. an acre. lie trusted that the Conference would come to some decision in this matter before it finished its delibe rations ; and whe n they became possessed of some 12,000 acres of land, which he hoped would be before the year was out, they would be enabled to set the power of the employers at defiance, and instead of as heretofore the workers returning to their labour, after the funds had been exhausted which had supported their strikesethey would be enabled to withdraw the workers altogether, to plant them upon those lands, and so to neutralise the influence possessed by the capitalists of the country. Mr. HAWKHURST, of Sheffield, said the present propo sition was that which his trade had directed him to sup port. That which prevented coroutrption in their line of business was the exorbitant prices the seller demanded for the work of the artisan. He discarded the prin ciple as unwise of buying in the cheapest and selling in the dearest market. He most cordially supported the proposition. All they wanted was better remuneration for their labour. The cutlers of Sheffield had been prevented from going into the Ann rican markt t in consequence of the spurious articles that were con tinually teing brought into the market and represented as being manufactured in Sheffield. The operative cutlers of that place, with the de termination of putting a stop to this, had adopted the plan of stamping their work with the words " She& ld Operative Cutlers' Company." After some further discussion, the Conference ad je.eirned till two o'clock. The Conference resumed at Two o'clock. The resolution, or recommendation rather, was the n put to the meeting and carried. Mr. DUNCOMBE (in reference to a very thin meeting) said that he was punctual, and he trusted the delegates would be also. As it was, he should certainly go on with the business before them. Mr. ROBSON then proposed that it be an instruction to the Committee to recommend to the trades—first, the payment of , s 3 weekly sum, as may suit the circum stances of each trade, - to be used for the purpose of en abling such member to become possessed of lend sufficient to raise him from the fear of poverty s under which the working classes now labour; and for the better e lucidatiee of the principle, the follon irg recommendation be put forth to show the capability of the trades to emancieate them elves from their present thraldom: when the funds amount to 151. per member, they can be so applied as to carry out the proposition, the details of which can be placed at the service of the Central Committee. Mr. SEDGWICK seconded the resolution. Mr. SHERRARD advocate d the principle of home colonization, as tending to improve the condition of the working classes by providing for the surplus labourers. Mr. FLEEING was desirous before entering on this subject of hearing the prevailing opinions of the dele gates, for though nominally the representative of a sec tion favouring the idea of home colonization, he was yet vittually the medium through which a large body of n esseciated into a society five and a half years ago to carry practically into effect ehese prize eilles—a body of men who had purchased their 1,200 or 1,300 acres—a body of teen who could look out on their owe va l es , an d woo d s, an d hill s — w h o cou ld h ear sthheeep, and lowi e of se their te own snaok e,f i ei cattle, o the bleating chimneys leatio of their li cur own g from their own homes —he was the medium through which these amen made known their principles. That association was formed in consequence of a strike among t he hatters of Sheffield, Manchest er ' A s h ton, Stockport, Oldham, and other Oleos, in the year 1841. They found that a strike, did wet answer the purpose it was intended for; and they 6i 144 PA 57% 9% 146 3 109 13% 15% 01 49% 41 66% 12% 18% 11M 2% 2% 50% 44% 32% Price, THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING,MARCH 28, 1845 therefore associated for the purpose of investing their own capital in the purchase of land. There were only 150 members at 5/. each, giving a working fund of about 7001. ' • but with this limited fund they were enabled to afford work to their distressed fellow workmen, and to pay them full wages for their labour.—(Cheers.) He objected to Mr. Robson's motion, because it entered into details, which they were not able profitably then to settle. The CHAIRMAN having put the resolution, Mr. WHITE rose to support it. He believed that it could be carried practically into effect, notwithstanding the statement of Mr. Fleming. He thought the adop tion of it wou'd make the working classes independent of their employers, and if it could be carried out, he was certain it would be productive of the ' best effects. He objected to the subject being referred to a Central Committee. He thought that the Con ference, and the Conference itself, should act in the matter. As he was convinced that the trades would not adopt the proceedings of the Committee, be trusted the public would be made acquainted with the fact, that they were determined not to be put off so easily as the f.rra labourers had becn.--(Cbeers.) He thought it was the bounden duty of the Conference to agree to the proposition of Mr. Robson.—(Cheers.) He thought they ought to come to some practical agreement, and that that should be published over the se hole country. Ile was sure that Mr. Fleming must know that there were prejudices in the trade that they would have a great difficulty to get over. Ile we nt along with grim in a great portion of all that he had said, but what he required was, that the Conference should itself do something definite, and not refer anything to a Committee. He concluded by supporting the proposition of Mr. Robson. The CHAIRMAN put the previous question, which was negatived by a majority of 12. Mr. FLEMING proposed the following resolution :--- " That the Central Committee be instructed to prepare a plan for the systematic organisation of the trades throughout the country, for a better regulation of trades' matters and trades' strikes in all the societies that may unite in this Association, and that the suggestion of the Chairman of the Confer ence on this subject be taken into especial consideration in the preparation of such a plan." These suggestions art as follow :—That the body shall be legally constituted, with powers vested in its members to hear all matters connected with trade business, and all cases where the rights of any one trade are threatened or invaded, that that trade—if a strike be' sanctioned by the governing body— thall be sustained, upheld, and supported during the struggle, however long it shall continue. The terms to he submitted to, and agreed upon, by a maje city of the Executive of the it sseciation for the time being. In the formation of such a body, local machinery must be taken into cemideration ; that is, suppose a strike takes place at Sheffield, or at Manchester, sanctioned by the ruling body, in such case the Executive should put themselves in communication with the local delegates of that trade appointed by their body, who will become honorary members for the tame being of the general Cody ; and, if necessary, there must be appointed one or more as commissioners from the per manent executive, to repair to the spot where the strike takes place, there to instruct themselves upon, and inform the executive of all matters connected with the movements, and in such cases any excitement necessary to sustain the strike should be transferre , ' from the place where it occurs to the metropolis, where the governing body should hold its permanent sittings. Mr. DUNNING seconded the resolution. Mr. 1‘ HITE thought it would; be well to have a com mittee that evening to agree on the general principles on which they should act. His idea was that they came there to act and not to speak. The resolution was, after some discussion, put and carried. The 7th and last resolution was then put and carried unanimously:—" It is recommended that, at least, an annual conference should be held to review the proceed ings of the Central Committee, and to de'.ise such mea sures as shall best promote the great objects of the Asso ciation." Mr. WHITE proposed " That a Committee of seven should be appointed to draw up an outline of a plan of organisation, and receive the opinions of the delegates on the matter, in order to establish an understanding as to the terms on which they agree to co-operate. The proposition was seconded. Mr. BLACKHURST moved an amendment to the effect that as the delegates were not prepared to submit plans to the committee, the proposition be negatived. • Mr. FLEMING supported the amendment.. The motion was put, when there appeared— Fon it , 32 Against it l7 Majority —ls Mr. WHITE the n moved that Mr. Robson, Mr. Blackhurst, Mr. Evans, Mr. Christopher, Mr. Bush, Mr. Hnmphreys, and himself should form the cc mmittee. Mr. IlAwitiNs rroved that the annual Conference be a moving one, holding its sittings in the large towns al ternately. The motion was seconded by Mr. Evans, and carried unanimously. The conference then adjourned till to-morrow. English commanded full prices, but all other kinds were a mere drug, and a clearance was not effected. In file foreign Wheat as well as Grain under lock, next to nothing was doing at late rates. Barley end Malt were in moderate supply and sluggish request at about Monday's quo tations. The arrivals of Irish Oats having been very ex tensive, the Oat trade was dull, at a decline of 6d per quarter. Other grain as last advised. ARRIVALS. Wheat. Barley. 11,380 qrs. I 4,860 qrs Oats.

The commission for the Coventry division of the coun • ty of Warwick was opened yesterday, with a calendar of forty-two prisoners for trial ; but, with two or three exceptions, they are all cases of stealing. The only serious cases are those of Susannah Jarvis, a girl aged 13, charged with the murder of the infant child of Emma Golsby, and John Preston, charged with having, in the company of others not. in custody, committed a burglary at Mancetter, in this county. There is no cause but three heavy road indictments appointed for trial on Friday. (Before Chief Justice TINDAL.) John' Preston, alias Hudson, aged 32, wis charged with burglary, on the 19th of October, in the house of Thomas Worthington, at Mancetter. Mr. Wilmore prosecuted. The prosecutor, a fine old man close upon ninety, stated that about one o'clock o ithe night in question he was aroused from his sleep by a noise at the front door, and went down. His niece and his working man, Thomas Wilson, were with him. Some people were hammering at the door. The prosecutor asked what they wanted, and they replied " his cows were out." The prosecutor said they might go, for they would do no harm until the morning. Then they asked for drink, and were told they might have as much as they liked if they would come the next day. They then began to break open the door, at the top of which a hole had been made. Prosecutor called for his arms, and his niece brought him a pistol. He tried to put it through the door, but his eye-sight being bad he could not find it at first, but did afterwards, end fired it off. His niece also gave him a sword, which he passed between the wall and the door, and tried to strike any one he could reach. The persons outside threw large stones through the hole, and hit the prosecutor, who would , have fallen, had not his niece caught him in her arm'. There were five or six persons outside. They broke open the door with levers. Pro:e .utor had a blunder buss in his hand at the time, which he had taken from the chimney-piece. His niece said, " For God's sake, do!,'t shoot them," and the men walked in, prosecutor ' having lilted the muzzle of the gun and fired it off, to prevent their usieg it. The blood was running down prosecuWes'face from the blow on the head from a stone. The men pushed him about, and otherwise ill-treated hina,*a •- nd robbed the place of a pistol, four sovereigns, some silver, and other matters. No part of the property was found on the prisoner ; but a conversation was de posed to as having taken place between the prisoner and another man named Haines, who was in gaol at the same time. The substance of this conversation was that the prisoner was put in the cell with him, at which time he had not heard of the Mancetter robbery. Prisoner was asked what he was in for, and he said on suspicion of the Mancettcr robbery. He said there had been very little from the robbery, some gold and some new coin ; that there had been violence. Beer had been asked for, and re • fused, They then broke in. Haines said, " You must have been there, or have known somebody who was there." Prisoner said, " Unluaily he was there, though not in the house." Haines told the statement to the governor of the gaol. He was then applied to to become a witness. He refused, thinking it wus a breach of con fidence. He was then taken before the magistrate and compelled to enter into his recognizances, and kept in gaol for the purpose of insuring his attendance. There was a reward of 200/. offered, but Ilaines said he did not know it at the time of the disclosure in question. The prisoner attempted to prove an alibi to the effect that he was at Ann's acre, between twenty and thirty Miles from the place of the robbery; that he was at home and in bed by ten o'clock; but there were many discrepancies in the different statements of the witnesses. The Learned JUDGE summed up the case very clearly and concisely; and The jury, after a few moments' consideration, returned a verdict of Guilty. A previous conviction for felony having been proved, The prisoner was sentenced to transportation for life. The CHIEF JUSTICE ;then ordered Mr. Worthington to stand forth, and after praisirg his courage and conduct in the matter, stated he should direct the county to pay him a reward of 101. (Before Mr. Justice MAULE.) MURDER.—Susannah Jarvis, an interesting•looking girl, of the age of 13, was placed at the bar, charged with the murder of Emma Goisby, at Coventry, on the 22d of April last. Mr. Mellor and Mr. Adams were for the prosecution; Mr. Humfrey, Q.C., conducted the defence. This case was tried at the last summer assizes for this division of the county, and lasted a whole day, but the jury, after being locked up through the night, not being able to agree, were discharged. At the winter assizes the trial was postponed, on the prisoner's appli cation, on account et her not being able to obtain the assistance of Mr. Humfrey, who defended her on the previous occasion, but who does not attend the winter assizes. The trial now came on, and lasted the greater portion of tho day, but the main facts are shortly these :—The prisoner cornea from Kenilworth, and had been acting as a nurse in the service of Mr. and Mrs. Golsbv, who kept an inn called the Cai:al Tavern, Leicester-row, just entering the _town from Leicester. Mrs. Golsby had 'three children, of whom the deceased, a child in arms, was the youngest. The prisoner had been in their ser vice three or four months, and but a short time before the murder had been scolded for bringing the child home with its throat scratched. Her mistress asked her what it was, to which she replied, "Nothing." It was sup posed she did ioS treat the child well, as it was never willing to go to her. There was a woman-servant kept RI the house, and happening to be going to Kenilworth, sh.e told the pri.•ier she would call and tell her parents of 11 , er conduct, and that if she did not behave better, s he st l . ould be sent home. On the night of the murder, M rs . ohby had proceeded up stairs to put one of the childrm p in bed, leaving another, about nine years old, in the bar, snd the baby in the cradle in the kitchen. There is a shy rt passage It ailing from the kitchen into the yard, and the little girl in the bar saw the pri m net et me from the kitchen into the passage, sap* she . c‘ as going to the " petty." She Fa w her at the kitchen door, and then returned into the bar. The mother was up stairs, and was struck by bearing 5 curious moaning noise, and shortly after a sharp cry- The distance where she was from the kitchen was but short. She ran down in a moment, mad met the prisoner just coming out of :he kitchen, who said, " Oh, ma'am, man has just come in and murdered baby, and has gone away down the yard." The poor mother rushed in, an d saw the child murdered in the cradle, the instrument used being a carvii g knife that lay on the dresser, and was w ithin the reach of any person standing at the heed of the cradle. The death was caused by a thrust in the ruck above the collar-bone, extending into the chest. Several witnesses for the defence proved that a mall had been seen much about the time in question . on the premises and to go away, and it was that circumstanc e that had induced the doubt in the minds of the former jury. Thaie were the principal features of the case. The I.4ned JUDGE summed up with great minute' nest, and the jury, after deliberating a short time, found the prisoner Not Guilty.
