TO THRfAliaomer THE SUN.
Ste—Having seed She'impartial remarks oe Mesmer•

rious and what I consider malignant atte,ck on Dr. D-
i
liotson in the others—while the names of the writers of
those paragraphs will be buried in obnivian the name of
Elliotson will be revered by after ages—gratitude to
that gentleman obliges me to put you in possession of
undeniable facts, which cannot be disputed.
On the 10th of November, 1838, my daughter, aged
15 years and 10 months, fainted away three times in
the afternoon—e,ause unknown. At twel•se o'clock the
same night lost het censer, which came again at inter-
val: for an hour, sometimes two hourat. Mr. White,
surgeon, attended bp, and that eminssas physician, Dr.
Spurgeon was calje?Pin, and to whorl I feel grateful for
their kind endeassours from the lath November, IB3S,
to the 19th ofJadruiry, 1839. Slse had taken upwards of
eighteen dozen bAles of medicine ('oesides leeches, blis-
ters, &c., being applied), when shss• positively refused to
take any more. Dr. Spurgeon. then wrote a note for
me to get a keeperess from Finch's Asylum at Kensing-
ton. I preferred having two. nurses, night and day, in-
stead of a kecperess. Her fits, which were of the most
violent description, increased from that time to she let
of February, she having- bad seventy in the twenty-four
hours before I had the good fortune to see Dr. Elliot-
son, who was attending a youth under the same treat-
ment, and who was restored by the same means. On
the 26th of December the fright occasioned by a board
falling on the floor over her head caused her to become
totally insane. On the Ist of February following I ap-
plied to Dr. Elliotson, after seeing the youth before
mentioned. 1 stated the furious delirium my daughter
luboured under, besides her having had seventy most
terrific fits in twenty-four hours,—and I believe no pa-
tients with fits are admitted into an asylnm. He at-
tended for three afternoons, with Dr. Wood, and endea •
voured- to throw her into a state of mesmerism, but
could not succeed ; when he observed to Dr. Wood,
" This poor creature has not a lucid interval ; I fear we
shall not succeed ;" but the next afternoon, to my great
surprise, he got her into a mesmeric state. He ob-
served that thousands would not believe this. I appeal
to any parent, what must his feelings be when an affec-
tionate child had been bereft of reason for above two
months, you could, lay holding her hand or touching any
part of her body, talk with her reasonably ? What
would the Nob'ses of the land give, if an only son or
daughter were snatched from the rave as my daughter
has been ? And I have no doubt that many young
creatures lave been, and are, in private asylums, who
could be restored by this means. But then the Faculty
have set their faces against it, and to such an extent
have they carried their animosity, and such is the in-
fluence they hold over society in most instances, that the
public mind is poisoned. I cannot account for this, un-
less it is owing to there being little medicine wanted,
for my daughter, in the mesmeric state, prescribed for
herself, and Dr. Elliotson implicitly ordered to be ad-
ministered what was mentioned. There was no privacy
used. I admitted any respectable person to see the
system of restoring a lost child to her disconsolate pa-
rents. This was my only object. The Doctors never
required to be alone, but explained to all present. I
have the names of many Lades and Noblemen who
came to see their treatment, but not having their per-
mission I withhold the same, to avoid giving offence. I
have seen several individuals turn pale as death, and
walk out of the room, at the sight of one fit only.
Many people observing my house, and supposed some.
thing serious must be the matter, from the piercing cries
caused by the agonies of the horrible fits. As to her
predictions in her mesmeric state, mentioning the time
she should come to her senses, six weeks before it did
occur, stating the hour and Minute, how many fits
would leave her each week, and the exact time, every-
thing she stated proved correct to the letter. She
would take many pieces of
.music under her arm in the
middle of the night, the lights being all extinguished,
and come down stairs, throw them on the table, select
the piece she wanted, sit down, play on the piano
and sing it perfectly correct, write verses, and thread a
needle in an instant, and mend her gown, in total dark.
ness ; in short, the extraordinary scenes that occurred,
no one would believe unless they saw or heard them per-
sonally. I, therefore, make every allowance for the
incredulity of the public and the ribaldry with which
some of the newspapers are treating Dr. Elliotson's
great exertions to restore the unfortunate beings labour-
ing under epilepsy, and other dreadful nervous diseases.
His gratuitous and unwearied attentions by day and
night for four months—his anxiety to save my daughter
under her unparalleled affliction, and thereby prove to
the community that many direful diseases were curable
by his system—demand my most grateful thanks. His
being called on by some of the public journals to give
proofs and facts of the benefit derived, is my only reason
for wishing this case to be made public. Thanks be
to Providence, my daughter was perfectly restored to
her senses, and has not had a fit since May, 1839, and
now enjoys a good state of health, but is totally uncon-
scious of ever being delirious, or of having had fitli.
Could an institution be established on the plan of the
Grevi le-street Hospital, supported by voluntary sub-
scriptions, for the admission of person; afflicted with
fits or serious nervous diseases, I have no doubt it
would do more to establish the benefits arising fiom
Mesmerism than all that can be said or written on
the subject.

AN ENEMY TO SLANDER.
9, Bedford-street.

STRIKE OF MASONS AT THE

NEW HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT.

An adjourned meeting of the Masons lately employed
at the New Houses of Parliament, was held last evening
at the Craven Head, in Drury-lane, for the purpose of
receiving the opinions from the different Unions in Lon-
don, with respect to the Masons holding a public meeting
on their late strike ; and also to consider the conduct of
a portion of the public Press relative to the strike.
.TORN WORTHINGTON, being proposed, took the Chair,
and called on the Secretary to read the minutes of the
last meeting.
The SECRETARY then read the minutes, which were
confirmed.

The CHAIRMAN then briefly alluded to some remarks
which recently appeared in The Sun, with respect to the
masons' strike, suggesting the propriety of Messrs.
Grissell and Peto meeting the masons. He begged to
say that the Committee fully concurred in the justice of
those remarks, and had inserted an advertisement calling
on Messrs. rissell and Peto to meet them, and he
begged to ask if any person was at that meeting on the
behalf of Messrs. Grissell and Peto.
No one answered.

The CHAIRMAN said that the people of Woolwich
fully entered into the spirit of the masons' strike, and a
town meeting had been called for the purpose of aiding
and supporting the masons whilst on the strike, which
was to take place to-morrow (this day) at eight o'clock
in the evening, in the theatre, Beresford-street.—
(Cheers.) He then called on the different delegates to
deliver in the answers from the various societies, which
were as follow :

Mr. GREEN, from a society of carpenters, said they had
voted the masons 50L—(Cheers.)
Mr. GIBBs, from the Pimlico carpenters, tendered 101.
A meeting would be held on Monday, for the pnrpose
of levying a small sum per week on each member; for
the purpose of supporting the masons.—(Cheers.)
Mr. BARKER, from the plasterers, said a meeting had
not been held yet of his society.
Mr. DOYLE, from another carpenter's society, said that
they had determined to support the masons for twelve
months if necessary by a weekly contribution.—(Cheers.)
Mr. JOPLIN, from the carpenters of Grosvenor-
square, presented 501.—(Great cheering.)
Mr. BUTLER, from the carpenters of Dorset-street,
said that a meeting would be held next Monday to take
the subject of the strike into consideration.
Mr. TrtomAs, from a masons' society of London, with
1%-.L, said they were determined to aid the masons on
strike all in their power.—(Cheers.)
Mr. ROLLINS, from a tailors' society, said they had
determined, as long as the masons were on strike, to aid
them, for twenty years if necessary.—(Cheers.)
Mr. BLACKLEACH, from another society of tailors,
presented 301—(Cheers.)
Mr. COCHRANE, from a painters' society, presented
101., and stated , that a weekly subscription would be
gone into..—(Cheers.)
Mr. CLARKE; from the Hope Friendly Society, Great
Marlborough-street, presented 201.
Mr. WELLER, from the Surrey lodge of plasterers,
stated tkat they had agreed to subscribe a weekly amount
each member of one shilling.—(Cheers.) •
Mr. ALSTON, from the painters of Portland-street
society, stated they had come to the same determination.
Mr. WILSON, from the plasterers in Thames-street,
said they would subscribe a shilling a week each.
A great number of delegates stated that the meeting
of the several bodies to which they belonged had not
held meetings, but it was their purpose so to do.
Mr. LOVATT said he had read the reports of their last
meeting in the British Queen and The Sun, and he
thought they were most perfect, and he begged to pro-
pose a vote of thanks to those papers.—(Cheers.)
Mr. JENKINS seconded the resolution. He had read
the report in The Sun, which he thought was the best re-
port which had appeared, and he thought that paper
should receive their separate thanks.
The Reporter to the British Queen--I yield the palm
to The Sun.

The CHAIRMAN asked if it was the wish of the meet-
ing to go into the subject of the press, or the subject of a
public meeting?—A very rambling discussion arose, and it
was at length submitted to a show of hands, and it was
carried in favour of the subject on public meeting.
The CHAIRMAN asked if any person would propose a
resolution.

- Mr. TURNER proposed that a public meeting be held
at the Crown and Anchor Tavern.
Mr. GRAHAM seconded the motion.

A WORKING MAN inquired what the expense of the
room would be.
The CHAIRMAN said it would be 14/. 14s.

A MASON suggested that the Lowther Rooms should
be taken, which could be had for a guinea.

A very desultory discussion then arose, in the midst
of which
Captain ACKERLET rose, and said he begged leave to
present the masons with 10/. It was absolutely necessary
that there should be money. He made that donation on
behalf of the stonemasons employed about Stoke, in
Gloucestershire, who were kept under the harrow by the
clergy in the neighbourhood. He had received a letter
from one of them, and he said they dared not sympathise
with their fellow workmen in London. He came there
to present them with 101., on condition that they had a
meeting on Wednesday next at the Crown and Anchor.
If they
delayed it, Government would prevent it, fur they
were oppnsed to the masons. He wanted an early public
meeting, and for that purpose he had come there, so help
him God !—(Cheers.) And his services were not to be
sneered at, he could tell them.
The motion that a public meeting be held at the Crown
and Anchor Tavern on Wednesday next was then put
and carried.
Captain ACKERLEY then wrote a check on Messrs.
Hoare's, the bankers, for 101. upon a slip of paper.
A Committee was then nominated to carry the above
resolution into effect.
Captain ACKERLET was proposed.
He was asked if he was a delegate ?
Capt. ACKERLEY--I employ ten men a week upon
my tin apparatus alone.
The motion was negatived, much to the apparent
ohagrin of the Gallant Captain.
ARMSTRONG WALTON then rose to brine. forward the
subject of the Press. He said when the Press was
against the working man, it was one of the most deadly
engines that could be used against them.—(Hear, hear.)
The first of those papers to which he wished
t ocal lc theirnduet attention
eatoted
to, wast
attacks uponTimes,e them.
and its
Also
infa-
mouslsotheir continual refusal to insert any letter from the
masons, in answer to the charges made against them. The
first of these attacks occurred about a fortnight from the
commencement of the strike. The statement contained
in the Times was of the grossest kind, and calculated to
poison the public mind. It said that the masons in-
tended to use physical force against the men who should
work at the Houses of Parliament, and thus they sought
to prejudice the public mind. The next article
was in the shape of a letter from Messrs. Grissell and
Peto, dated the 4th of October. They (the masons) did
not complain of that letter being inserted, but what they
complained of !Vas the refusal of the Times to give the
answer to it. The next article to which he would draw
their attention was another letter, signed C. 8., and
dated the 18th of October, in which the writer urged the
masters to conspire- to crush the working men, and stated
that the Unions of the working-classes were eating up the
vitals of the land, and that they were composed of con-
spiring rogues. He (Mr. W) said that there were con-
spiring rogues, but those conspiring rogues were the
aristocracy, who were devouring the vitals of the nation
piece-meal.—(Cheers.) The next' paper he should al-
lude to was the Advertiser, which also refused insertion
to everything explanatory of the strike. He (Mr.
Walton) had gone to the Editor of the Advertiser and
told him that they were shut out from the columns
of the press, and asked him to give insertion
to a letter in answer to Messrs. Grissell and Peto's.
He said he would consider of it, and took the letter.
What was their surprise the next morning, when not one
single word appeared in the paper respecting it! When
he called on him again, he said he would not enter into
the case at all, either on one side or the other. But he
did not keep his word, for he tried to injure their cha-
racter. Of the Dispatch he would say nothing ; there
was a gentleman from that paper present, who would
no doubt explain.—(Hear.) He (Mr. 'Walton) would
then state what steps should be taken against these
papers. In the first place he recommended them to dis-
continue their support of any of those papers which
had so misrepresented them—(Cheers)—and who were
so determined in their opposition to the working classes.
In the next place, in order to carry this into effect, he
would further recommend that all those houses which
they supported, and who took in those papers, should
either discontinue to take those papers or lose
their custom.—(Loud cheers.) He was not dic-
tating to them, he was merely, offering his opinion
and advice. They knew as well as he did that in the

case of the Advertiser they were
sup-
porting the paper, but they were supporting the licensed
victuallers ; and if those licensed victuallers still con-
tinued that paper, they should no longer support them.—
(Cheers.) He had long looked at the press as a great
enemy to the working man.—(Hear, hear, and cheers.)
Mr. SHORT then entered into a long list of complaints
against the Weekly Dispatch, and he hoped that they
would do al! in their power to put that paper down, fur
it was now the decided enemy to the working man.—
(Cries of " Down with
.the Dispatch.") He begged to
propose the following resolution :
" That it is the opinion of this meeting that the reports
which have appeared in the Morning Advertiser have
been false aria malicious; and the conduct of the Editor
in refusing to publish a statement from the men contra-
dictory, was disgraceful and unmanly, it being a paper
that is solely supported by the working classes ; and
this meeting requests their fellow-workmen to use their
utmost endeavours to prevent that paper being taken in at
any of their meeting-houses."
Mr. TURNER then proposed that the Dispatch had
forfeited all claims to support from the people of Great
Britain, therefore, the delegates at this meeting do pledge
themselves to urge upon their respective bodies the ne-
cessity of discontinuing their support to that paper.
This being seconded, was carried unanimously, amidst
the most enthusiastic applause.
A vote of thanks was then proposed to the Proprietors
of the British Queen, which, after a stormy discussion;
was negatived.

The meeting then adjourned at twelve o'clock.

ANTI-CORN-LAW MEETING.
UPROAR AT CARPENTERS' HALL.

In pursuance of a resolution adopted by a meeting of
the working classes, held in the Old Manor Court-room,
on the 13th inst., a meetiryg of deputations from the va-
rious trades, workshops, mills, &c., was held in Carpen-
ters'-hall, on Monday evening, to consider the best means
to be adopted for effecting the repeal of the corn and pro-
vision monopolies. The attendance was very numerous
—the gallery and platform were completely filled. and
the remainder of the room nearly so. It was announced
that Col. Thompson would attend but the Gallant Gen-
tleman did not come. At eight o'clock it was proposed
that Mr. Watkins should be appointed Chairman.
This was met by a counter-proposition, on the part of
the Chartists, that Mr. Bailey, a Chartist, should
preside. This difference of opinion with respect to
the choice of a Chairman was expressed in no very
measured terms by the Irish operatives on the one
side, and the Chartists on the other • but, when Mr.
Bailey announced, that " even if elected as Chair-
man, he would not preside, because the people of Man-
chester had shown that they could not behave them-
selves," the meeting became greatly excited, and a gene-
ral row took place, from which very serious results were
apprehended. A " regular set-to," immediately under
the platfotm, had (however paradoxical it may appear)
the effect of restoring order, by attracting to the spot the
other disorderlies, who made a ring, and showed, what
they called, " fair play." In about five minutes. one of
the belligerents yielded, and the victorious party was
taken upon the platform. Order being then restored,
Mr. Watkins proposed that he should occupy the Chair,
and that Mr. Bailey, the Chartist, and Mr. Hague, a
Corn-law Repealer, should act as umpires, in case his
(Mr.Watkins's) decisiobs should be disputed. This pro-
position having satisfied both parties, Mr. Watkins took
the Chair amid loud cheers, and having read the adver-
tisement calling the meeting, entreated a fair and impar-
tial hearing for the speakers on both sides. Mr. Warren,
in a lengthened speech, which was heard with much at-
tention, moved the following resolution :--
"That this meeting of deputations from various.
trades, mills, workshops, &c., in Manchester and Sal-
ford, and of the working classes generally, loudly pro-
test against the injustice and injurious operations of the
corn and provision monopolies, and pledges itself never
to rest satisfied until monopoly is for ever done away
with, and compensation for years of misery is made by
the aristocracy to the labouring millions ; and that, in
order to effect the object in view, this meeting do adopt
the following addresses, and that it calls upon the la-
bouring classes of Great Britain and Ireland generally,
to send deputations to a conference of labouring men, to
be held on New Year's Day, in Manchester, for the pur-
pose of devising some effectual means for obtaining the
total repeal of the bread and provision taxes, and the
compensation of the long-plundered bread eaters."

Here followed two addresses ; one to the working
classes of Great Britain and Ireland, and the other to
the working men of Birmingham, calling upon them to
use their most strenuous exertiuns for the repeal of the
Corn-laws. John Joseph Finnigan seconded the reso-
lution. James Leech, a Chartist, moved as an amend-
ment, " That, until the working; men were in possession
of the franchise, they would never have justice done
them from any Government that might be elected." He
reiterated his often-made speech about the introduction
of machinery, which, he said, was the cause of all the
miseries of the working classes. Thomas Rankin se-
conded the amendment ' • but the meeting would not
grant him a hearing. Mr. Acland then came forward
to support the original resolution, and was enthusiasti-
cally applauded. Having occupied about 15 minutes
in replying to the statements of Leech, he (Mr. Acland)
was interrupted by one of the Chartists in the centre of
the room. A cry of " Put him out" was then raised,
and presently a forest of shillelahs were seen flourishing
in the air. The forms were upset, and the sides of
several of them torn off, and converted into short staves.
In attempting to gain the door, several parties were over-
turned, and lay struggling in heaps on. the floor, in dif-
ferent parts of the room; but, notwithstanding the
" dreadful note of preparation" for the melee, no person,
as far as we could learn, received any serious damage.
In a short time the Irish became almost the exclusive
occupiers of the room, and gave expression to their
triumph in a way peculiar to themselves. The Chair-
man exerted himself to the utmost to enforce order, and,
finding it impossible, dissolved the meeting at a quarter
to eleven o'clock. The reporters then withdrew with as
much expedition as possibie, and, as we understand, the
rest of the meeting separated -shortly afterwards. A
large body of the police force were stationed outside the
hall, but they were not required to act.—lllanchester

TRIUMPH.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

OCT. -1841.
Sir,—Although,—Although the enclosed letter of my 27,
friend was
private, and not by him intended for publication, I can-
not deprive myself of the pleasure of sending it to you.
I have the honour to remain, Sir,
Your most obedient humble servant,

O'Connell's Head Pacificator of Ireland.

Corn Exchange-Rooms, Dublin, Oct. 25, 1841.
ELECTION DAY OF OUR FIRST REFORMED TOWN

COUNCIL.

This has been, indeed, a glorious day for Ireland.
The Liberator returned Aldermen for two wards, and
the great majority. of the wards won by overwhelming
majorities. Here is the triumphant result :
SOUTH. LIBERALS.
*James's Ward 4 George Roe, Alderman
*Catherine 4 Alderman not yet known,
supposed Sir J. Power
*Aucloen 4 John Keshan, Alderman
*Patrick 4 Alderman not yet known
Castle 4 Cors. Egan, Alderman
*College 4 James Rooney, Alderman

NORTH.
Custom-house
*Post-office 4 I'. Purcell, Ald. !! faugh!
*Linen-hall 4 Liberator, Alderman,
*Four-Courts 4 Liberator Alderman
Paul 4 Pat. Gardiner, Alderman

The Liberals won those marked * by large majorities.
In the Four-Courts wards the Liberator had 189,
Shendon next to him, 134. The highest Tory, 19. The
rascals contested every ward except James's.
In the Linen-hall the Liberator had 369
John O'Neill next to him 366
Grace 363
M`Kenn a 362
This is as nearly as we can ascertain the numbers, for
the voting is done by papers, and not viva voce, as at
Parliamentary elections.
In some of the close wards, Andrew's, Merrion, and
Castle, then! was filthy splicing of Catholics with the
Tories, and renegadism and hiding. Still we are safe—
gloriously safe. Tom Atkins has more merit than any
other man ; he was sure of the Aldermanship in Four-
Courts ward, the safest in Dublin ; and learning that the
Liberator was likely to be annoyed in the Linen-hall
ward, and doubtful of the Aldermanship, he came to me
last Tuesday sight, at ten o'clock, and would not be con-
tent till I went up with him to the Liberator, and re-
signed it into his hands. You never saw devils so dumb-
founded as the Tories, when they found they could not
vent their malice upon the Liberator, by putting him
out of the Aldermanship in Linen-hall ward.
We don't yet know how Andrew's ward has turned
out, nor Merrion, but it is confidently said we have An-
drews by about eight majority. Natty Callaghan will
certainly be the Alderman there ; so at all events we
have one, and in Merrion they say we have one ; this
would make us 46 out of 60 in the Council, or nearly
3- to 1, and 40 Repealers !
Nine times nine times nine cheers for the Lord Mayor,
the New Council, and Repeal !
