PUBLICATIONS.

Cession, not only prevented the poor people fron
getting food, but had deprived them of raiment, and
hindered them from attending to the worship of God
If ministers of religion were not to come forward on
such a question as this, he did not know when they
should come forward.—(Hear, hear.) As hi
knew- there were other speakers to come before
the meeting, he would not longer occupy their
time than to say, he recollected reading some time
ago of a cobbler who did not like things to be
altered for the worse, and after the appointment of a
certain Noble Marquis to be ranger of Richmond-
park, he commenced an action against him for stop-
ping up an old footpath, and the Marquis was cast.
An individual afterwards asked him how he could
think of daring to go to law with a Marquis ? " Be-
cause," was the reply, " I did not like to leave the
world worse than I found it."—(Applause.) Now,
if we did not abrogate the present Corn-laws, we
should all most assuredly leave the world worse than
we found it—(Hear, hear)—because the Corn-laws
now in operation were certainly more injurious than
any of those which had preceded them.—(llear, hear.)
He considered these laws to be most unjust in their
origin, injurious in their operation, and ruinous in
their consequences to the whole community.
Here there was a cry of want of room in the meet-
ing, and it was stated that, notwithstanding the wet-
ness, of the evening, many persons were outside un-
able to gain admission. The interruption having
ceased,
Mr. J. S. BUCKINGHAM then presented himself,
and was received with the most enthusiastic cheering.
He said he had accepted with the greatest pleasure the
invitation tendered to him to attend that meeting, for
the purpose of offering to those who were assembled
some of his own experience with respect to facts bear-
ing upon this question, and also to tender to them,
with great deference and respect, the opinions which
these facts had led him to form upon the subject.—
(Hear, hear.) His name, he believed, was sufficiently
familiar to most of them in connection with the great
question of free trade in general—(Hear, hear)—for
it was that which had brought him first to Manches-
ter some ten or twelve years ago, and which had led
him to witness in this then thriving and opulent town
—more so, he grieved to say, then than he had reason
to believe it was at present—a degree of enthusiasm
manifested upon the subject of free trade to the
eastern possessions of Great Britain, and to the great
Chinese empire, which had led him to hope that the
same spirit by which the people were then animated
would not only have continued to the present hour, but
would have so grown with their growth and strength-
ened with their strength, that there would not have
been found a single individual in the whole of this po-
pulous city who was not an advocate for free trade in ge-
neral. They might judge then of his astonishment,
when he learned that it was necessary even for Manches-
ter to hold meetings of that description, to present new
arguments and new facts in order to convert and change
the opinions of a large number who seemed either
indifferent to the subject, or else hostile. However,
the greater the necessity for exertion, the more were
they called upon to make it ; and since it appeared
that that enthusiasm had abated, and a change had
come over the minds of some at least, it was most
agreeable to him to see so large a section before him,
animated by the same spirit as then, and determined
to go forward as they went forward then, and never
to sit down in quiet until their great object was ac-
complished.—(Applause.) Since that time, now twelve
years ago, he had had twelve years' experience, and
that experience had been more than usually diversi-
fied. Because, first of -all, it had led him over every
part of the kingdom ; for he had begun at Liverpool
and Manchester, and had afterwards gone through
every part of England, every part of Scotland, and
every part of Ireland, except the extreme south; and
all the varied experience which that tour had given
him, had served but to rivet his conviction stronger,
and to add new testimonies not only to the value of free
trade in general, but of free trade in the food of man
in particular.—(Applause.) Subsequently to that, he
hail had the opportunity of sitting side by side—he was
proud to say it, with his Hon. Friend on his left Mr.
Brotherton, in the House of Commons—(Applause)—
and there, as his friend knew well, they had had the
opportunity of hearing all that could be said against
the principles of free trade, and he confessed he never
heard an argument there worthy of answering.—(Ap•
plause.) They were so contemptible—either so false
in fact, or so contemptible in reasoning—that the pro-
per way to treat them was to turn aside with scorn.
They were not worth the attention of any man claim-
ing to be a man of intelligence ; and the wonder al-
ways was to him, how men professing to be men
of intelligence, many of them having had a uni-
versity education, and some having won the great
honour of senior wrangler at Oxford or Cain- ,
bride—(Applause)—how they ventured to keep a
grave face, and make the assertions which they did,
and expect any person to believe them.—(Applause.)
And for a time, he had thought it was a kind of ex-
periment to see how far authority and station would
go, in exacting a sort of base and slavish homage to
dogmas and fallacies the most absurd he ever listened
to. And certainly the experiment had succeeded ; but
if he had been told beforehand that such men, a leader
of the Cabinet, for instance or of the Opposition,
would say such and such things, and that those things
would be supported by men who were selected from
among their respective communities as the wisest men
to go up to Parliament and take a share in making
the laws, 'he should have conceived it quite impossible,
and should have been ready, according to the approved
English method of supporting an opinion, to have laid
a wager of a hundred to one that such a thing was
utteKly impossible.—(Applause.) Nevertheless, he
had seen it, and was, therefore, compelled to believe
it ; and, after all he had heard during the six years
he had sat in that great assembly of "potent, grave,
and reverend seignors"—(Applause)—he confessed
he had not heard a single argument to shake his faith
for a moment in the great doctrine, that free-trade
was designed by God in the way that he had formed
the globe and varied its productions ; that all history
tended to show the wickedness as well as the folly of
monopoly ; and that they were the only true friends
to the human race who set their shoulders to the wheel
to destroy these monopolies, and to introduce a free
exchange of the produce of all nations.—(Applause.)
Subsequent to that, he had had another sphere of
experience, across the Atlantic, in the United States
of America.—(Applause.) And he might say,
without arrogating to himself any merit on that
account, that his was not a flying steam-boat
visit, to run on railroads here and there, look out at
the windows, and then come home, and give some de-
scription of the country; but it was a careful, delibe-
rate, and patient investigation; and if they only gave
him credit for possessing the average amount of abi-
lity to observe, and the average amount of veracity to
describe, what he had observed, they could not but ad-
mit that his opportunities had been very great. And
though it was very possible for a man to form a tole-.
rably accurate conception of countries by the books
that described them, yet every one who had tried the
experiment knew that seeing the- places themselves,
going through the country, and holding personal
communication with the people, put a person in pos-
session of a thousand things, and created a variety of
impressions which no amount of reading could sug-
gest.—(Applause.) It had been suggested to him—
and he agreed in it—that it would be becoming in
him, and would advance the interest of the great cause
they espoused, were he to confine himself to what he
had seen in America, and the observations which his
opportunities had enabled him to make as to the great
resources of that country in grain, and as to the in-
jury which both America aria England suffered from
the folly of one or both of their Legislatures ; for
those who placed hindrances in the way of the ex-
change of the produce of one man's labour for that of
another, were equally wicked and foolish, whether
monarchical,aristocratical, or republican.—(Applause.)
After all, it came to this, as a political question ; for
he agreed with the Rev. Gentleman who had just sat
down, that there was scarcely any topic they could
speak' of or introduce, but was more or less a political
question. Some understood by politics one thing, and
some another ; some supposed it to mean the broils in
blood, and strife, and irruptions, with which politics
had too often been connected. But that connexion was
slot necessary or indispensable. Politics, as he under-
stood it, meant human government, and the great end
and object of human government was to decrease as
much as possible the amount of evil in the world, and
to increase as much as possible the amount of good.
—(Applause.) , No man would say that politics, in
that sense of the term, was unworthy a minister of tile
Gospel, a female at the head of an establishment, or
the youngest child that could lisp a truth at all. We
were all, by duty as well as by interest, deeply bound
to do all 'we could ; first, in the limited circle in
which we moved, and then in the more extended
sphere of influence in which God might plant us, to
diminish the amount of suffering among the human
family and increase the amount ofhappincss. God having
created us to that end, and given us. a capacity to en-
joy pleasure, politics, in that sense of the term, was
notonly not pbjectionable in connection with any
pursuit whatever, but it was the bounden duty of

PROGRESS OF THE LEAGUE
FUND.

SILVER SUPERSEDED, and those corrosive
and injurious metals called Nickel and German Silver
supplanted by the introduction of a new and perfectly match-
ess ALBATA PLATE. C. WATSON (late ALDER-
MAN), Nos. 41 and 42, BARBICAN, and No. 16, NOR-
TON FOLGATE, aided by a person of science in the amal-
gation of metals, has succeeded in bringing to public notice the
most beautiful article ever yet offered : possessing all the rich-
ness of Silver in appearance—with its durability and hardness
—with its perfect sweetness in use—undergoing, as it does, a
chemical process, by which all that is nauseous in mixed metals is
entirely extracted—resisting all acids, may be cleaned as Silver,
and is manufactured into every article for the Table and Side-
board,

MANCHESTER, FRIDAY MORNING.-7A meeting Was
held at the League rooms last evening, to learn the
progress of the 50,0001. fund, and to hear the speeches
of J. S. Buckingham, Esq., late M.P. for Sheffield,
Joseph Brotherton. Esq., and the Rev. Mr. Shepherd,
of Bury. Richard Cobden, Esq., was also present,
with W. Rawson, Esq., John Bright, Esq., Henry
Rawson, Esq., and J. Rawsthorne, Esq. The room
was crowded to suffocation, notwithstanding the in-
inclemency of the weather, and the proceedings expe-
rienced some little interruption more than once, owing
to the meeting being so densely packed as scarcely to
afford breathing room.
GEORGE WILSON, Esq., took the chair about half-
past seven o'clock, and said, since he had last the plea-
sure of meeting them in that room the correspondence
oF the League had been almost tenfold what it ever
was in the same period; and fro all quarters they
heard of but one opinion, but one expression, as to
the course taken by the Council, and that expression
was one of unanimous approbation.—(Applause.) And
what was more, they had in these letters the most en-
couraging assurances and promise of support from all
quarters. The Secretary would be: unable to read a
twentieth part of the whole correspondence, and he
should call upon him, therefore, to read but a few, which
had been selected as a fair criterion of the whole, and
then he should have the pleasure of calling upon gen-
.tlemen to address them whose speeches would more
than repay them for the disappointment thus occa-
sioned.—(Applause.) In Manchester, the local com-
mittee for collecting the 50,000/. fund had met, and
had succeeded in putting into circulation a number of
cards, which, when filled up and returned, would con-
tain subscriptions to the amount of 1,646/.—(Ap-
plause.) The ladies had held their second meeting.—
(Applause.) They had met for the second time on
Tuesday morning. The number of their committee
at the present time was about 120 members.—(Hear,
hear.) And they also had succeeded in issuing cards,
which, when filled up, would contain contributions to
the amount of 6201. 10s.—(Applause.) A general
committee of superintendence for the whole kingdom
had been formed, and actively devoted themselves to
their duties. This committee had issued cards, which,
when returned, would contain subscriptions to the
amount of 3,0751. 18s. Cards were already taken,
therefore, to the amount of 5,3421.—(L0ud cheers)—
and, what was still better, from the spirit with which
their friends were devoting themselves to the work, there
was a probability that they would soon be returned
filled up.—(Renewed cheering.)

Esq., seconded the appointment of the following
gentlemen to be registrars to the League, which was
agreed to with applause :—Mr. J. Dean, Colne; Mr.
J. Chadwick, Eccles ;. and Mr. J. Wragg, Bury.
The CHAIRMAN said they had been honoured by
the unexpected visit of the Rev. Mr. Shepherd, of
Bury, and he begged to introduce him to the meeting.
The Rev. Mr. SHEPHERD was received with loud
applause. He said it afforded him great pleasure, as
a minister of that Gospel which offered peace and
happiness to all mankind, to come forward in behalf
of any cause that had for its object the protection and
the welfare of his fellow-creatures. He was happy
to inform them that they had a delightful meeting at
Bury last night.—(Hear, hear, and applause.) Their
lecturer was present on the occasion, and he was sure
that that gentleman's arguments produced a powerful
impression. These were followed up by an able speech
from Mr. Walker, M.P., who pledged himself to the
movement, and he was happy to say that cards were
taken by persons present, which, when filled up, would
contain subscriptions to the amount of 5001.
(Ap-
plause.) Ile had felt a great interest in this move-
ment from the first, and he had endeavoured to bring
it forward in that place where his fellow-creatures
met with him on the Sabbath to receive the bread of
life.—(Hear, hear.) He did so, feeling it to be inti-
mately connected with the present as well as future
destiny of these persons._(Ap.plause.) He had been
frequently taunted with coming forward to meddle
with political questions since he had done so to be sure
—(Hear, and laughter) _but he should like to ask
what could they meddle with that was
not political ?
—(Hear, hear.) If they endeavoured to avoid
meddling with political questions, it was clear, for
instance, in the first pace, that they could nut
get married, for that was political.—(Laughter.)
Their little children must not be registered
their birth—that ws, . hear.)
Another thing, they must not speak of the Sabbath-
day; Sir Andrew Agnew had made that a political
question.—(Great laughter.) They must not read
the Bible, for the Queens printer had made that a
political questiori.—(Renewed laughter.) If any per-
son died he must not be buried, for his death would
have to be registered, and that was a political question.
—(Applause and laughter.) It was clear, therefore,
that religious persons could not avoid politics more
than other persons ; and 'what question could they
entertain of more vital importance than this was ?
(Hear.) It was the cause not only of humanity and
justice, but it was the cause of God.—(Hear, hear.)
Ile had seen much of the misery which existed be-
cause of the injurious tendency of the Corn-laws.

TO DYSPEPTICS.—Copy of a Letter from the
eminent Physician, Dr. E. T. Roe, of Plymouth, to R.
K. GELDARD, Chemist, Agent for Captain PIDDING'S
CELEBRATED TEAS. " October 31,1842.
Sin,—ln answer to your inquiry respecting Captain
Pidding's Tea, I long used it in London, and hail the introduc-
tion of it into Plymouth with pleasure, believing it to be more
wholesome, and grateful to the debilitated stomach of the dys-
peptic, than any Tea previously sold in this town.—Your's, &c.
EDINV ARD T. ROE, M.D., Plymouth."

" Mr. Geldard."
Though Dr. James Johnson, Dr. Sigmond, and more than a
hundred other medical men, have, in their writings, borne tes-
timony to the superior quality and wholesomeness of Captain
Pidding's Tea, Dr. Roe's letter is here given, from the clear
manner in which it points out the benefit, that those who
suffer from Dyspepsia, Indigestion, a weak or debilitated sto-
mach, would derive from the use of Captain Pidding's Mixed
Black Tea. But, independent of the superior quality, which it
is admitted on all sides, Captain Pidding's Teas possess, they
are, from their strength, found to be cheaper than even the
lowest priced Teas. Sold in Chinese Catty Packages. The

UEAVER'S EMBROCATION for GOUT,

Copy of a Letter addressed by Trevor Holland, Esq., Surgeon,
of Cannock, near Walsall, Staffordshire, on the 6th July last,
to the Editor of the " Times:"--
" sir,—l think it a duty I owe to the public to make known
the efficacy of a remedy which I met with accidentally, and
which has been of such wonderful benefit to myself. Some
months ago I met with a very severe accident, having dislo-
cated and fractured my ancle severely. From the great tender..
ness of the joint I was quite unable to walk, the limb con-
tinued very much swollen and adematons, and I suffered
dreadfully from severe attacks of spasms in the night, which
extended from the ancle to the leg, thigh, back, and to the
arms. Having exhausted every resource of relief which I and
my medical friends in the country could suggest, to no
purpose, I set out for London with the intention of con-
sulting Sir Benjamin Bodie or Mr. Liston—then to adopt sea-
bathing. By accident Ire t with Mr. Feaver, 16 Ludgate-hill,
who applied his Embrocation, and, to my great astonishment,
