LECTURES ON SOCIALISM. —We regret that it is not b
our power to furnish our readers with a report of the ver
powerful lecture delivered at the Amphitheatre, last night
before a very crowded auditory. The interest excited or th

and the arguments rendered clear and satisfactory to th
meanest capacity. Mr. Brindley, last evening, demonstrated
by proofs not to be gainsayed, that there must of re
