THE STAFFORDSHIRE POTTERIES.

A meeting of the working classes was held last night at
the Mechanics' Institution, Southampton-buildings, Chan-
cery-lane, to take into consideration the contest now exist-
ing between the master-potterers of Staffordshire and their
journeymen ; Mr. JOHN GAST, shipwright, in the Chair.
The CHAIRMAN having stated the object for which the
meeting had been convened, observed thtt a deputation
from, the journeymen potterers of Staffordshire had arrived
in London for the purpose of laying their case before their
brethren, the working classes of the metropolis. After
dwelling for some time on the necessity of union among
the working population, as the only efficient protection they
had against the power of the capitalists, whose object it
invariably was to increase profits by keeping down wages to
almost starvation point, he invited the members of the de-
putation to come forward, and address the meeting.
After the meeting had been addressed at length by seve-
ral Deputies, it was resolved—
" That this meeting, solemnly recognizing the great and
indisputable principle that labour is the creator and. sup-
porter of all wealth or capital, that every
man has a right
to the unconstrained disposal of his own productive ener,
gies, whether of body or mind, and that viewing the pre-
sent system of the masters in the potteries of Staffordshire
towards their journeymen to be as unjustifiable in principle
as it is revolting in practice, it shall be immediately re-
sisted through the intelligence, energies, and perseverance
of men who know their rights, and, knowing, are resolved
to maintain them."
It was further resolved—" That this meeting would assist
their brethren of the potteries to the utmost extent, and by
every means in their poWer."
A Committee was then appointed to receive subscriptions.
Mr. GLASS (a Deputy) begged to make one observation
in order to prevent any mis-statement going abroad as to
the actual number of persons who- were employed in con-
sequence of the present strike. There were about 1,400
members of the union unemployed ; but
the men dependent
on them for employment, but who did not belong to the
Union, together with their wives and children, would make
the whcle number out of employ amount to 30,000.
Thanks were voted to the Chairman, and at eleven
o'clock the meeting broke up.

In the city of Dublin and its immediate vicinity,
there are, as we find on inquiry. 45 convents and monastic
establishments of the Church of Rome, out of which only 17
are understood to be registered as the law requires. We
do not pretend an anxiety to direct the attention of Lord
Morpeth to this circumstance. No doubt rests upon our
minds that if Popish establishments were tenfoldin number,
and rivals of that, the interior economy of which Maria
Monk disclosed, Lord Morpeth would not enforce the Act
of Parliament with regard to them. Our motive in men-
tioning the fact, is to show how the laws affecting Popery
are administered in Ireland, and also to give the public an
opportunity of forming au estimate of the influence which
the vast increase of such establishments has on the welfare
and morality of this country.—Dublin Record.
