CHARTIST MA'N(EUVRE
DEFEATED.

On Friday evening it was understood that Mr. Tl,os.
M'Connell would discuss the subject of Teetotalism, (or
rather recommend a more efficient scheme for the re-
snoval of drunkenness), in the Mechanics' Institute, Cir-
cus•strcet, New-road. A Mr. Nicholson of LiSson-
grove appeared on the occasion to defend the princi-
ples of teetotalism. A little alter six o'clock, a consi-
derable number of persons being assembled, P. Dodd,
Esq., was called :o the chair. Mr. INl‘Connell then rose.
and entered into what he called the cause of drunken-
ntss,.which he said was merely occasioned among the
working and middle classes from the use of malt liquors.
raeie liquors, he said, were taken by the working
classes on account of physical exhaustion, and among
the middle classes from mental distraction. He then
proposed, as his new and infallible project, the kicking
off, at once, the national debt, and leaving those who
had placed their money in the public funds to learn
wisdom by the result. He then proceeded to recom-
mend the oppressed rising, and by one mighty effort to
obtain this desideratum. The teetotalers utterly con-
founded by being subjected to this gross infliction of
Chartism, evidenced the greatest restlessness, when an
influential member of the Temperonce Society, who was
present to hear the discussion, proceeded to the front of
the platform, and moved that all teetotalers should ea-
press their decided abhorrence of the principles recom-
mended, by at once leaving the room. This was im-
mediately responded to, when the Chairman and the
riends of the total abstinence principle immediately
withdrew.
