(THIS DAY.)

THE MEETING ON KENNINGTON-

COMMON.

ABANDONMENT OF THE PROCESSION.

We were informed that the nature of the communica•

tion given to Mr. O'Connor was to the effect that the
bridges had been taken possession of by the troops and
police, and that if the procession proeeeded to one of
them, that a collision with the authorities would be ine-
vitable. They represented that-this message might be
made known to the meeting. Mr. O'Connor promised to
do so.

Mr. O'Corsaron then mounted the waggon and stated
that the Government were determined to prevent them
from proceeding across the bridges, and that he would
suggest, in accordance with the decision of the Conven-
tion this morning, " that the proceedings should ter-
minate with the meeting, and that the petition should
be taken to the House, in an ordinary manner, for
presentation this evening to the House of Commons."
He put it to the meeting whether it would not be ad
visable to adopt this course, and to avoid an inevitable
collision with the authorities. He thought it would be
well not to violate the law, but to trust to the moral
influence tkey possessed.
The crowd immediately expressed its concurrence
by cheers.
Mr. F. O'Coataton then addressed the meeting. He
said that he hoped they would be peaceable, and not
bring him into any trouble. He was sure that they
could but ill afford to dispense with his services at pre-
sent. There was nothing sweet in life for him but to
witness the promotion of the interests of the people. Ile
trusted, therefore, that all who were actuated by a
wish that the voice of 5,100,736 people should be heard,
for that was the number who signed the petition, and
that the petition should be taken by the Executive to
the House, and presented by him in the usual man-
ner, would hold up their hands.—(Here an im-
mense forest of hands were held up.) He called
upon the meeting then quietly to disperse, and not
form into any procession, even the horses who drew their
car would not go over the bridges, but go quietly
to Greenwich. He again called upon the meet-
ing to take off their hats, and vow in the
face of heaven that they would not violate the law.
A vast portion of the mass here uncovered and vocife-
rously huzzaed. If ever he deserted the people might
his God desert him.—(Loud Cheers.) He was deter-
mined to go on from conquering to conquer in
ihe glorious cause of tho people.—(Loud cheers.)
At the conclusion of his speech, the lion. Gentleman ap-
peared to be much affected by the effect of his exertion
and complained very much of a pain in his chest.
Mr. E. JONES said that he a as a physical force Chartist,
but deprecated any attempt at collision with the authori-
ties when they were so unprepared for it. He was
one of those who had recommended that the procession
should not be formed on this side of the water, nor
allow the bridges to be between them and the
!Luse of Commons. If they had met an the other
side of the water the police would never
have attempted to stop the procession. But as
it was they were caught in the trap set for them by the
police. It their petition was not granted, they would,
however, meet in larger numbers upon the other side of
the water, and earry their remonstrance to the foot of
the Throne.— (Cheers.) If they dispersed peaceably
upon this occasion they would, they might depend upon
it, bo able to meet in larger numbers upon another occa-
sion, joined by thousands of the middle classes.
Mr. F. O'Coaralon then asked leave to go as their
ambassador to Sir George Grey, and inform him that
they did not intend to come into collision wtih the au-
thorities, which was given to him by an immense number
who held up their hands in approval of the proposition.
Mr. F. O'Connor then left the waggon, stating that he
was going in the office of plenipotentiary. and that his
chest and his head were literally breaking.
Mr. CLARK, in a violent speech, then moved the adop-
tion of a petition to the House of Commons against the
"Gagging Bill" of the Government. The speaker was
frequently interrupted by persons in the crowd, who
cried out, Don't let the petition go down to Parliament
tonight—take it back again, and wait till we can go
with you."
Mr. SPUR, a person in the crowd, deprecated the
dispersion of the meeting, and a smart discussion was
kept up between him and Mr. Donovan, one of the Con-
vention, on the propriety of dispersing. Mr. Spur said
that he should recommend the processior. going with
the petition until they met the military, and then if they
should attempt to stop them, wby then it would be time
to consider the propriety of dispersing.
Mr. CUFFAY, one of the delegates, was also of opinion
that it would be time enough to be afraid of the military
when they were met with them face to face.
Mr. KIDD, a delegate from Oldham, said that if the
Government passed this :Bill they would make treason
rampant throughout the land.
A DELEGATE wished Mr. Cuffay not to continue to
incite the people to go in procession.
To this request
Mr. CUFFAY replied that he was only expressing his
opinion, and he would do so in spite of him or hell.
Mr. SPUR, the individual wishing the people to go
in procession, here got up in the waggon, and some very
violent altercation took place between him and the other
members of the Convention, while the terms " traitor,"
" coward," " braggadocio," were most liberally bandied
about.
Mr. BROOKES then addressed the people, denouncing
Mr. Spur as a traitor, and one who had deserted them
to go to the moral force humbugs at the National Hall.
Mr. DoYLE, the chairman, stepped up to Mr. Spur,
and stated that he would give him into custody if he
attempted to interrupt the proceedings of the meeting.
There was not a greater coward present than Mr. Spur;
he was one of the pro-Lovett party, that had left them at
the National Hall.
Mr. CUFFAY said that ho believed the whole Con-
vention were a set of cowardly humbugs, and ho would
have nothing more to do with them, and proceeded to
the hinder part of the waggon for the purpose of leaving
them.

The motion for the adoption of the petition was
unanimously agreed to, and the Chairman declared the
meeting dissolved.
The waggon was then, with its six horses, driven
rapidly through the immense crowd, causing the utmost
confusion. The members of the Convention then ilea
the waggons, and the crowd began to disperse. Im-
mense numbers of persons still continued in different
groups discussing the propriety of forming in procession
towards the bridge.
THE IRISH CONFEDERATES.
Mr. G. W. M. REYNOLDS addressed from a balcony
4,000 or 5,000 of the body who rallied round the
Irish flag at the side of the common. He said
their piaceable conduct that day—their intention
not to allow the slightest disturbance—would do
their cause incalculable good, as it would sho w
to the world that they were worthy of the possession of
the rights they sought. He concluded an elaborate ad-
dress by imploreing them not to commit any breach of
the peace, and to wait until the House of Commons
had refused their petition.
Mr. WEST next addressed the throng. He said the
peaceable demeanour of the hundreds of thousands
would show to Lord John Russell and Sir George Grey
that whilst they were treated like men, they would not
violate the law. If bringing up troops by special trains,
if overawing them in every possible way, was to be the
law, the time might come when they would take the law
into their own hands. Let them be assured of this
that the National Convention would not cease to
agitate until the Charter had been obtained.
(Loud cheers.) Ireland should belong to her people,
and not to an absentee aristocracy. It shall be a free
land—it shall no longer be a land of slaves.—(Cheers.)
If the Government thought they could transport the
Chartists, let them take care that they were not
transported themselves—let them take care of their own
lives. The people were the true power, and they were
determined to wield it—determined not to be shot down

fur simply advocating their inherent rights. If the
Government refused to grant the prayer of their petition
let them take the responsibility upon themselves. If
they had their spies upon them they had their spies upon
them. Ile wished to say to Prince Albert, and those

who cried them down, " We can put down revolutionary
movements—if you are disposed to be brave wait a
little and we will show you what we can do. You shall
not attack us unprepared."—(Cheers.)
Mr. J. lIARNEY next came forward. He said, if the
Government had been making preparations to meet the
French who were upon their way to the metropolis, they
could not have made greater preparations to put them
down.—(llear.) An Act of Parliament, passed in the
time of the diabolical, the debauched, the scoundrel
Charles 11., had been raked up to punish them; but let
them bear in mind that Lord W. Russell, the ancestor of
Lord J. Russell;was beheaded in that reign for advocating
tie principles they had met to promote. how would
Lord John Russell like if they raked up an old Act to
punish him. (A voice—" Off with his head I"—A
laugh.) Yes; they intended this to be a peaceable de-
monstration, but if they did not obtain their just rights
he could assure the military and police that they would
find them the next time on the other side of the water.
Ile and four others had been warned that they had been
selected to be shot to day—(Laughter)—but there were
men in Ireland, and men in Nottingham who
would not be slow to imitate Robin Hood
and take a terrible revenge for the heads of him-
self and his confederates.—(Hear, hear). If they
were denied their rights, the greatness of England
could not long continue. When the news of Louis
Philippe's expulsion from France reached New York,
a proposal was set on foot to raise 1,000,000 dollars
to aid the Irish in their struggles.—(Loud cheers.)
A resolution was passed, which, as a loyal sub-
ject, he would merely mention—(Laughter)—to the
effect that they hoped the time was not far distiant when
a glorious republic would be established in England, and
Prince Albert's wife sent to Germany.—(Laughter.)
He hoped the time was not far distant when the union
between Englund and Ireland would be one of affection,
and not merely of Parliament.
The populace having at his request declared their
opinion that it was wise to abandon the procession,

three chi ers were given for the Repeal of the Union and
he Charter, and the proceedings terminated.
The people then began slowly to leave the common.
THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT, AND ITS
APPROACHES.
From ten o'clock Whitehall, Parliament street, and
Bridge•street were throngA with crowds pressing to-
ward; Westminster-bride, akin- tr,h the wills along the
route were placarded with " notices," exhorting " all
peaceable persons to abstain from joining any meet-
ing which was disorderly, or likely to become
io. ' The bridge itself was densely crowded all the
'orenoon, by the masses moving on towards Ken-
nington-common ; and at the foot of the bridge, to-
wards the Westminster-road, two large bodies of the
polico, drafted from the N and V divisions, were stationed
to enforce the notice issued this morning that "No pro •
cession accompanying the petition would be allowed to
cross the bridge.' There were other notices placarded
on the parapet of the bridge, warning the public that the
paling was only temporary, and that it was
dangerous to crowd the bridge. In Palace-yard,
in front of Westminster Hall, a troop of mounted
police (of the S division) was stationed all the morning.
The men were armed with cutlasses and pistols. There
was a reserve of special constables stationed in West-
minster Hall, and parties of those officers,
distinguished
by broad armlets of white silk, paraded the adjoining
streets from Abiegdon-street to Charing cross and Tra-
falgar-square, which latter space was occupied by
the police from eight o'clock in the morning. In
Westminster-bridge-road and the Kennington main road
nearly all the shops were shut. Detachments of police
were stationed at several points, and within the enclo-
sure of Bethlehem Hospital there were stationed a com-
pany of artillery and a troop of the Horse Guards.
These roads were excessively crowded with thousands
hurrying forward to the common, but the whole fore-
noon passed away without the exhibition of any alarm-
ing symptom, or of anything to excite the least appre-
hension of a breach of the peace.
It became known to the authorities that the marshals
of the procession, having receivtd notice of the deter-
mination of the Secretary of State and the Com-
missioners not to allow them to cross Blackfriars-
bridge with the petition, they changed their design
of route, and it was given out that the peti-
tion would be taken by the procession over Blackfriars-
bridge ; but that was taken possession of; as well as
Waterloo-bridge, by the police, and placards were put
up to the same effect, as on Westminster-bridge, that no
procession would be allowed to accompany the petition
across any of the bridges.
Three cabs were then called upon the common, and
the petition transferred in various parcels from the wag-
gons to them. A member of the Executive occupied
each of the cabs with the petition, which then drove off
with loud cheers. _ _

Mr. J. Harney, Mr. Jones. Mr. Reynolds, and the
gentlemen who addressed the Irish confederation, left
the common, accompanied by large numbers of the
people, and at two o'clock, of the whole of the vast as-
sembly, there were scarcely a hundred persons on the
common. All the roads leading from the common
were, of course, thronged by the numbers leaving it.
Mr. James White, reporter for the Gorernment, was
allowed to have a seat in the van, and took a close
" note" of the speeches which were delivered. His po-
sition was by no means an enviable one, if it be true, as
stated, that two or three ignorant fellows who had sin-
gled him out intended to annihilate him. He was, as
usual, entrusted by some enthusiasiastie Chartists with
confidential messages to Lord John Russell and his
colleagues respecting their rights and their innumerable
grievances.
On the nice tiug breaking up the people dispersed in
different direction;:, the most numerous body proceeding
along the Kennington-road towards Westminster-bridge.
'They proceeded in a peaceable manner without any pre-
tence to walk in order. They proceeded over Westminster-
bridge, the police not attempting to obstruct their progress.
The discretion which the authorities exhibited cannot be
too much commended. As the crowd approached the police
filed on each side of the bridge, and allowed the people
to pass, a few at a time, until the road was in some de-
gree eased of the immense mass of human beings with
which it was crowded. A great number of the police
were then withdrawn from the bridge and stationed near
the House of Commons, in order to protect that part from
any obstruction.
W EST MINSTER-BRIDG E .
THREE O'CLOCK.

The approaches to Westminster-bridge are stopped,
and the various thoroughfares leading to and from the
Houses of Parliament are strongly guarded by large
bodies of police. It was not without some difficulty
that the bridge was cleared, and even now the police
are struggling to disperse a mob that persists in
retaining possession of Bridge-street. The Police
Commissioners have just issued a placard, stating
that no parties will be allowed to pass along Parliament-
street with the petition, excepting those who are actually
in charge of it. A number of determined Chartists were
heard to announce at the meeting on Kennington Com-
mon, that be the consequences what they might, they
would make an attempt to follow the petnitn to White-
hall.

BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.
MONDAY, APRIL 10, 1848.

All quiet at Liverpool at 10 45, A.M.
No accounts have been received by the Government
from any other parts of the country, and we are astho-
rised to state that none could have been transmitted by
private channels, as the Government has taken posses.
sion of the telegraphs.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Cotton market at Liverpool on Saturday closed
very heavily. Sales, 2,500 bales. American went at
4/d. to Sid. per lb. Railway Shares were very flat, at
a further decline.
The Continental advices received to-day are not of
special interest, beyond what appears in the morning
papers. The declaration of war by Austria
against Sar-
dinia excites no surprise.
From the United States there are late advices by the
Cambria. The intelligence of the revolution in Paris
had caused a great sensation, and the probable influence
of that great political event upon the position of the
United States was much debated.
The mercantile advices mention that
"should the
steamer from Liverpool, now nearly due, bring advices
that the revolution has settled down into a Provisionary
Government, and that the movement had been confined
to France, it will relieve the minds of all classes on thiswill side very much, and
give a great impetus -to' specula-
tion. We have no idea that such will be the elm-
racter of the next accounts, as the effect of even what
had taken place at the latest dates upon public confidence,
upon trade and the general industry of Europe, has, no
doubt, been sufficient to prostrate credit and produce a
great derangement in the commercial affairs of the world.
We shall not escape ; our export trade will be materially
reduced, but our import trade may fall off sufficient to
keep the balance of trade about where it is.
" Within the past few days prices of stocks generally
have fallen off, but this is attributed more to the con-
dition of the money market than to anything else,
although there is no doubt but that the position of poli-
tical affairs on the other side, and the probable effect
upon financial and commercial affairs, have a dePre's'ng
influence. Our domestic finances are slightly
and it will probably be Soule time before they are suffi•
ciently regulated to make money abundant. Internal
navigation will soon be resumed, and as soon as business
premium;
o i BeatTn7khee
commences we may look for an improvement in the
money market, from payments made by merchants from
the interior. The banks are playing a very cautiousbe
game, and we commend them fur it; whatever may
the
means, object they have in view, the end sanctifies the
&rang, d,
means, and there is no cause for complaint."
This was exp:xted to be almost a holiday in
Exchange, but it is surprising to find the quotation.. silo
firmly maintained and a fair business doing, a proof, at
least, of the strong reliance placed in the loyalty
of the people of this country, and the firm-
ness of our institutions. This is the first day for
