TORIES IN DISGUISE OF

CHARTISM.

As already noticed in our paper of yesterday, Mr. Smith
lectured on the Corn.laws on Monday, at the Hall of Sci-
, "ire, City-road. Last night he lectured at the Hall of
&lionise, Bethnal green, to the Spttalfields weavers and
the respectable inhabitants of the aeighbourhoed. Pre.
vim to the commencement of the lecture, a gentleman
male tip to him, and stated that he had been to his lecture
at the City-road, and was placed behind a knot of men in
the dram of working persons, and he distinctly overheard
1 them arrange a plan or proposing and carrying by surprise
aehairman of their own for the eveaing. They had also ready
eenookteed resolutions of a violent nature denouncing the
Certa.raw repeaters, and pledging the working classes not
to petition againat the Corc-laws. Mr. Smith had no
emneeption that there existed any conspiracy of this kind,
ani tiatbengh he bad not conceived that a Chairman was
Release/try to the hearing of a lecture, he being a perfect
stranger to the audience, did not oppose the motion made
by a person named Spurr, for appointing another indivi-
dual, *ailed Savage, to the Chair. Mr. Savage very soon,
is order to try the strength of his Tory followers, got a
thew of hands as to whether Mr. Smith should be heard;
and bullet; his people outvoted by ten to one, an anxious
ensteultstios took place as to whether they should ven-
ture ups■ the resolution!. It dropt out in the course
ref this colloquy, that they bad eoncerted with a Morning
Paper to have a reporter, who was to record the triumph
of the Tory Chartists ever tho Cora-law Repealer. Thu
reporter did take notes, but they have appeared in none
of the newspapers, because, as the conspirators were
iodates, the report would only have recorded Tory defeat.
At let it was determined that the resolutions were not to
he reamed upon as originally preconcertad, and one of
the party consoled the rest with tbis statement—" We
shall new at least be enabled to say in the papers that wo
married OCT own chairman." The truth was, that they
prepared their own ehairman, because Mr. Smith was un-
aware of their scheme, and made no opposition to it.
Last night, at Bethnal-green, the audience was most at,-
festive and eordial in their approbation of the lecture. At
the end, a baker came forward with Mr. Savage, the
Chairman of Monday evening, and said he had a question
to ask the Lecturer. He then proceeded to address the
sadienes, advising them to sign no petition for repeal of
the Corn-laws, but, in short, rather to try for re-
forms, which be knew there was no chance of their
gettiagg. Mr. Smith at once cut him short by
telling him to ask questions and not to make speeches.
Lie also disclosed to his audience the treacherous Tory
tricks that bad been so well baffled the previous evening,
whits the indignation of the people at such conduct vented
itself in vociferous execrations against the intruders, and
ended with three bold cheers for total and immediate repeal
of the Corn-laws. A petition was numerously signed at
the close of the meeting, and mothers, with infants at their
breast, pressed mend to add their names. We beg to
warn the working men of London to be on the alert. The
Tories are disguising themselves as Chartists, for the mere
purpose of diverting them from demanding the repeal of the
odious bread tax.

The Treasury, in accordance with Mr. Hill's
prepositions, have directed four kinds of stamps to be prepared
—stamped covers er half-sheets of paper, stamped envelope.,
labels or adhesive stamps, and stamps struck on letter-paper
itself. The three first kinds are to be manafactired on some
peculiar paper by the Government.
We are happy to say that there is no truth in
the statement that Catholic tracts have been circulated by the
police in the suburban districts.

PROJECTED BRANCH TO THE BRIGHTON
RA ir.RoA P.—A private meeting was held at Worthing a few
dais since by a few proprietors of land in I3roadwater parish,
and some gentlemen from Brighton, on the subject of a pro-
jected railroad from the terminus of the Shoreham branch to
this tow* ; but it clncluded without bringing forth any resolu-
tion. A survey has nevertheless been made this week of the
property in the intended line. Such a railroad would undoubt-
edly be beneficia' to Worthing, and the making of it would be
generally wished for, if not much assisted, by the inhabitants of
the town and aeiglibou,hood.—Susvex Express.
RELIGIOUS FREEDONL—The Dissenters of
Bury are procurin signatures to a petition against Church-
ro

\V (the Port of Tyne Pi/o/), have been in-
formed on respectable authority, that for six weeks recently
the Lights in the North Channel of the Tees have not been
lighted. Every vessel entering the Tees contributes a stated
sum for the expenses attendant en keeping these lights in a
state of efficiency. For some weeks back the principal beacon
is that channel bat been down.

INVERNESS ELECTION.—The following s an
extract from a letter received •n Monday, from Inverness
"The nomination went off very well for the Reformers to-- day,
as the Tory candidate broke down most signally, I may say
most painfully. This has had a good affect for the Reformers,
but still their situation is very preoiarions. Gold is a drug—
sod whence it comes God knows ; but it is here, and plenti-
fully too. They are riving 301. and 601. as an ordinary bribe,
and ono good Reformer had an offer of opening a credit at the
bank for him for 150/., if he would give the Tories his support.
So that the Refurniers have hard work to keep all their people
straigkt. it is shocking to see what evils this introduction of
money gives rise to. There was no bribery here in 183.5 or
1A:37 : and now that the cupi lity of the poor Gaelic peopli, is
t 2 l'ed by sums which to them are fortunes, the effect is won-
derful. Is it possible the money oomes from London ? There
is no one in the vicinity who can afford to give it.”
ADELPIII THEATR.E•--.oii Monday a 44 new
ronical, local burletta of men an I manners," called The
Fortunes of Stnike ; or a Sequel to Nicholas :Yiehleby,
Came out here. The whole acting of the piece was sustained
by Bockstone, Beverley, Yates, and Mrs. Keeley. Buckstono
Was the poor clerk, Newman Soggs ; Beverley made the most
of John Browdie, the Yorkshireman; Yates wa.s the Mantalini ;
Alf 0. Keeley played Smike; Cullenford, as old Ralph Nicklebv,
way harsh, stern, brutal, and repulsive, according to the ori
nal ; and Master Brunton, as young Wackford Squeers, left! sl
the " specimen fat boy" with knowing point and spirit.P
piece was received with mingled applause and disapprobation -
and when announced for repetition by Mr. Yates it way cheered without dissent. A specimen of its assumed wit may be taken from the incident of Browdie giving his direction as
the nSarah's llead,"—or, " Well, if it wasn't Sarah's Head,
it mi Sarah Son's Head,"—meaning the " Saracen's Head"
,(,;,i4"--office and tavern.
