THE CHARTIST DEMONSTRATION.
(This Day.)

Since the memorable 10th JApril,lB4B, little or nothing
has been heard of Chartism until to-day, when it was
announced by the Executive Committee that a grand
demonstration would be made to welcome John Frost to
London. Great efforts had evidently been made by the
committee to produce an effect, and large placards were
posted in the neighbourhood of Holborn, Lincoln's-inn-
fields, and all round the metropolis, inviting the working
classes to assemble in thousands in honour of " the
champion of Chartism, " John Frost. The placard also
announced that there would be a large attendance of
flags, banners, and bands, and that the assembled thou-
sands would, at an appointed hour, march through the
metropolis en route to Primrose-hill, where a mass meet-
ing would be held, over which Ernest Jones was to pre-
side, and John Frost was to deliver an address.
The " democrats " of North London were to meet
in Russell-square at 10 o'clock, and proceed
from there, accompanied by their bands, to Lincoln's-
inn-fields. On their arrival at that spot they were to
meet those of the central London and the " foreign demo-
cracy," and at 11 o'clock the assemblage was then to
proceed to Finsbury-square, and there meet the "demo-
crats" of the east of London. The different bodies
having met, a "grand procession" was to be formed ;
and at 12 o'clock it was to pass through Cheapside, St.
Paul's-churchyard, Ludgate-bill, Fleet-street, the Strand,
Regent-street, Portland-place, Regent's-park, to Prim-
rose-hill, and there to commence "the business of the
day" at two o'clock in the afternoon. Such were the
arrangements of the committee.

At the appointed hour the North London democrats
had not arrived in Russell-square. At half•past 10 a
few idlers took up their station at the different corners
of the square, and began to speculate as to the time at
which the "demonstration" would arrive. At half-past
11 the " democrats" were not fortheonaiog, and the
sightseers, which by this time amounted to about two
hundred, began to declare that "they had been sold."
In Lincola'4-inn-fields the attendance at half-past 10
was very thin, and at eleven there might have been about
300 people assembled, the majority being of the lower
orders. To while away the tedium of waiting the arriva
of " the demonstration " there was a run upon the
stock of the venders of walnuts, and to a nutcracking
accompaniment a " heroic" ballad was sung by three
stentorian voices, from which we extract the following

stangls

Cheer up, cheer up my gallant lads,
And haste away my hearties,
To welcome this day with loud hunk
_...

Old brave John Trost the Chartist.
To London tow* of high renown
He comes, then gladly greet him,
For every man throughout the land
So joyfully should meet him.

cHoStis.
So bold and brave he stem'd the wave,
Cheer up this day all parties,
And welcome with a loud huana,
John Frost, the gallant Chartist.

Come fill a bumper to the brim,
And drink success to parties,
In harmony let Britons sing,
Now conies John Frost, the Chartist.
For he was a man in Newport chair,
When he was mayor and there sat,
So let the world say what thoy will,
Oh he is still a man for a' that.

Frost has got foes we may be sure,
Still he has friends, too, plenty,
For though grey his hairs, advanced in years,
And past the age of seventy,
lie is halo and strong, may he live,
So unto glory lead 'em—
And cut away by night and day,
For liberty and freedom.

Shortly after eleven the Chelsea division arrived in
Lincoln's-inn-fields, and consisted of about 300 persons,
100 of whom were foreigners, accompanied by drums
and fifes, and a number of flags and banners. Amongst
the most conspicuous of the latter was a large red ban-
ner with the inscription, "Hail to the Victim," another
of the same colour inscribed "The Alliance of the Peo-
ples," and anothei—a green one, bearing the words,
" The Archangel is here ; her name is Democracy."
After being marched round the gardens, and it being
now nearly 12 o'clock, the managers not thinking it
judicious to wait for their Northern brethren, com-
menced their march to Finsbury-square, proceeding down
Holborn.

At twelve o'clock nothing was to be seen in Russell
square of the St. Pancras, Marylebone, and Islington
division, so that the supposition is that they went by
another route to Primrose•hill, instead of proceeding to
Finsbury-square.
On the arrival of the different bodies at Finsbury.
square they were in a short time joined by Mr. Frost
in an open carriage-and-four ; and the signal being
given, the procession began its march to Primrose-hill.
The route traversed we have mentioned above.

We should imagine that the entire procession com-
prised about 800 ; and the best order was kept through-
out the line as it traversed the most crowded thorough-
fares in the metropolis at the busiest hour of the day.
As the procession moved up Regent street there were
several bursts of cheering, and when the Regent's-park
was reached the cheering was resumed.
