CHAB . TIST TIGHMS . TO THE EDITOB OP THB KOBTHEKS STAR . Deae . Sib—As I perused the Leeds Intelligencer of Saturday last , -which tos kindly lent me by Mr .

It -was the intention of the ; framers of the present Bill to remove from time to time ! the MDlbank prisoners & the prism at TKKTOSyihT ^ B . ! The Bill-was read a second time .

It may not be known to the Chartist public that a ) 2 Xge number of persons "who were : tried at the late Special Commission held at Stafford , -vere afterwards removed to Milbank Penitentiary ; among the rest my friend Joseph Xinney , a ¦ w armhearted , sterling , and hardworking Chartist , -who has been Tery useful at Bilston , Dudley , and the colliery districts ; and although they seem to have forgotten his services , las is generally the case -when a man is imprisoned , ) 1 trust that the people of England -will not allow him , and our other victims now in the Penitentiary , to be taken to that damnable den called Pentomxlle Model prison , to
be either murdered or driven mad , -without making an effort to deliver them . Let ns have no more nonsense snch as " three cheers for the Victims , " and such like fustian ! Set to icorJs now in good earnest Here are some of our best men about to be destroyed . Remember that already there is one murdered man -who was ; a Stirling Chartist . Ashley died last week . ' and should others be removed to Pantonville , we shall probably never hear of them again . Remember the iron masks and other instruments of torture , -which forms part of the rules of this -worse than French Bastille ; and then ask yourselves what is your duty on this occasion ?
In conclusion , Six . Editor , 1 trust jou trill publish a list of ail Chartist prisoners , ¦ wher e confined , sentence , number of family , residence of their wives , fcc ., as numbers of our friends in London seem desirous of assisting those who require their aid . : I was yesterday informed that Robert Wilde , of Mottram , now in Knuvsferd House of Correction , has left a wife and two children , "wfeo are in a state of f atter destjtntii . li .

REPEAL OF THE UNION . * Irelutd for tbe Irish" ! What a talisman is contained in those fonr words 2 What an array of opposing interests , conflicting purposes , and antagonistic principles do they pat in operation ! And yet how Mr , how reasonable , and how just are they ! They involre simply the one principle of right against 'wrong—of power against < right—of fraud against honesty—of a nation against a faction .
As we proeeeed with the consideration of this great and might ; question , we feel our responsibility increasing as the agitation progresses . The state of Ireland sow presents a pictnre , sot only novel in those days , bet unlike anything to be found in tbe whole history of the world . It is folly to deny that although no force has been osed , the two : countries are at open war ; and upon the issue depends more than seems yet to have entered into the conceptions of many of our friends .
When we read the bold and significant addresses of Hi . O'CojfKixi , to a mercurial people , npon whom the ; are calculated to make a powerful impression ; likely , from their sarcasm , and vengeance-breathing tone , to excite them to deeds of almost instantaneous madness ; and when we snd such a people still satisfied to rest tamely under their several maladies —the causes , the nature , and the consequences of which are so graphically described to them , — it evinces an amount of individual controul over National Mind which has never been exhibited before !
Upon the other hand we find the Ministerial part ; blocking up the country with war-ships , and overspreading the land with a military force \ while the same enthusiasm which jis to be found in the unarmed Irish peasantry is far from distinguishing the armed invaders . In this state of things we naturally look to' the Press and to the Representatives of the people in
Parliament , for some solntion of this political novelty . But so far from finding anything satisfactory from either of these sources , we merely gather from the persevering ignorance and obtaseness of the former and from the reckless consistency of the latter , that should the Union be Repealed , England thus shorn of her fair proportions will owe her weakness ^—should weakness follow—to her Press and her Parliament . :
We can readily understand and account for the breathless interest and anxiety manifested for the issne of thb struggle b ; the whole Chartist people , who see in it the recognition of theirown sacred principle of self-government . We can understand too , and we can honour , the adherenc ; to principle which makes out Chartist friends watchful and suspicious of O'CoMtELL . The ; hare certain !; had cause in byegone times to make them doubtful ; and his present conduct , oa the supposition of sincerity , the ; are unable rightly to appreciate They conclude—and with great appearance of reason—that
his rejection of the ChartiEta' aid is proof that O'CoxREii has no purpose to succeed ;; and that he waits but a convenient iopporiunit ; to place the question iii abf yance and make merchandise of Irish crednlk ; . We see the feeling whence this rises ; and weTepeat that we honour that feeling ; for it is the feeling of honest men indignant at injustice , and at whatsoever may perpetuate its reign , But are our friends quite sure that they take a Eufficientl ; enlarged view of the entire field ! Repeal , as things now stand , is no child ' s play question ! It requires a master-mind to grasp its whole position ,
and to arrange its forces for the peaceful combat . No man can doubt Mr . O'Coxseix ' b competency . Hib is a giant mind—an intellect that sees more at a glance , than common men in a whole life time . We are disposed , therefore , to give him isea room ; and not to press him hastily or too heavily . Ab we said last week , so we now repeat : we desire to gire every man credit for the best motives by which he can be actnated ; and we make Mr . O'Cosxeia no exception . Possibly he may have in view some stroke of polic ; which we do not ; et see , and which ma ; sufficiently exense
the apparent suicidal coarse he is pursuing . Mr . O"Higgiss well says : ** with the means , or intended means of Repealing the Union , none but the initiated staff are ; et acquainted . " tBut we can b ; no means agree with Mr . O'Higgiks in the opinion that these means are the very first thing that ought to hare been generally divulged . On the contrary , we can think of many circumstances - which might make it A first duty of a leader to keep back thiB information till the precise moment when his own judgment tells i him it ma ;
he given safely ; and even to hazard the good opinion of the hasty rather than give reasons for his conduct , -when those reasons may involve the safety of his cause , or the practicability of the means contemplated . Last ]; , we remind our friends , as we have done befcrei that Daniel O'Corkell is not Ireland ; but that IRELAND DotAirps Rbpbal 1 and Ireland is in earnest . I Whatever of disposition ther * might be in o'Cohkell to evade the push , the possibility of doing so grows daily Ies 3 l We appl ; to this case , the excellent parallel reasoning of CHiggiks : — ?
Some people have gODe so far as to sa ; that the t-aaiohe laity pia thea- laith to the eleere of the priest , by whom they arc led blindfold . ; Nevertheless , Ehenld any Catholic priest deviate but one single step from las creed which the poorest layman

believes to be true ; let him giro dp bat one iota of that creed , fox th ^ purpose of conciliation or expediency , an / j the poorest and most ignorant layman would 7 jo loager | confidd in hua j would no longer follow uim ; would no longer trust him j but would firmVy abide by the creed he was taught ; and pity , in the priest , the frailties of human nature . The poor fel low ^ hear t would sink within him ; and he who ? Vould a few minutes before suffer a thousand bullets "to pass through his tody sooner than allow the priest of his choice to be molested in any manner , would , ia such an event , remain firm in his creed and leave his fallen spiritual leader to his fate . "
This is just in point . Repeal is the political creed of Ireland ; and , thengh O'Connell should reccede to-morrow , not a jot would he carry with Mm , either priests or people . They would have the Repeal for themselves ; they would get it by themselves j and they would pity and despise O'Connell in his dotage . No man knows this better than O'CgivnelL . He is quite aware of it . He knows that there is no retreat for him . And , if any man will read his speech at Clare , given on our sixth page , he will perceive that he knows exactly his position , and has made up his mind to it .
Whatever doubtB we may have entertained as to the policy of Mr . O'Connell upon all former Repeal ebullitions , he has recently cut all ground of suspicion from under tbe most sceptical . And now we change our tone from that of anticipated failure through deceit , 'to one of admonition . We hare before expressed eur belief that those jumping articles which , have recently appeared in the Times were but decoy ducks to arrest the attention of the assailed , while the assailants were completing the machinery for suppressing the Repeal agitation . If we couple the altered tone of this garrulous old lady with the stand-s'ill policy announced by Sir James Ghahau , the suspicious return of the Orange alien Lords to
their conquered'estates , and their affected respect for national prejudices by tho abandonment of their annual festering Orange demonstrations , we can have no doubt that such was the object with which the conciliatory articles in the rimes were written . It is a curious fact that while the sagacious Editor of that Journal could not , some few weeks ago , learn from any quarter , north , south , east , or west , neither from " the communicative traveller , " nor " the sagacious resident , " a single practical grievance of which the Irish could justly complain , we should find in the Times of Wednesday last , the " grievance" of cottier tenants being oubted , and thereby rendered reckless , set forth as a "National Malady , requiring immediate correction . "
Leaving the Times to the pleasing reflection that its virulence towards Ireland and every thing Irish ^ has sown the seeds of disaffection in that country towards everything English , we now pass on to a consideration of Mr . O'Connell ' s position . It ever has been the fate of the sincere friends of Democracy to be prematurely hurried into a direction of public opinion by the over cealous , the over canning , the thoughtless , or the reckless . The cause of Chartism has suffered more from the indiscretion of its own friends , than all other causes . We trust that Mr . O'Connell , while
he stands firmly to his object , will not be dragged into any premuture step whereby the whole cause may be perilled . The people of both countries having long suffered under the tyranny of class legislation , can surely afford to fold their arms and smile > through one campaign , at the polished steel which their discretion and peacefalness may reuder harmless . A civil war , once commenced , may be carried on for years , and ultimately result in the further subjugation of the working classes ; leaving no other moral behind than that justice canuot be based on blood ; whereas , a triumph gained by moral dignity
over physical force leaves upon record the imperishable fact , that moral power , when judiciously used , is unconquerable ! The means of carrying on this peaceful agitation for a Repeal of the Union is placed in the hands of the Irish people , from the fact that the whole provisions of that country become on such an occasion one consolidated store for the maintenance of the peaceful army ; while in England the dependence of the working classes npon tbe daily caprice of the capitalist to employ them must ever turn the best intended moral display of any duration into a physical outbreak or
depredatory war , in which burglars , thieves , and pickpockets will practise their favourite pursuits , and thus afford the opportunity of branding Char " tiem with murder , rapine , and destruction of property . We but require : to see the thing done ; we do not require to rsn the chance of losing it , by seeing it too hastily attempted . Miad , when as unanimous as it appears to be in Ireland , is like the load stone , acquiring strength by use . We therefore abstain from askiog Mb . O'Connell to name tho day , the week , or the month , when it will bo safe to divulge the completion of his machinery . He
is upon the defensive ; and must be much , if not wholly , governed by the acts of othera . When the several Spanish Generals who preceded Es ? jlktebo in command of the Spanish army , had failed , either through ignorance or the influence of foreign gold , and when the present Regent asFumed the command , he carried on defensive war , and was laughed at by the English press for his cowardice and supinenegsj until at length , when the success of his plan of warfare had achieved for him the highest
dignity that his country could confer , his revilera upon a sudden turned round and became his eulogists . In an undertaking like thepresent , one false step may cause utter ruin ; and it is therefore we caution Mr , O'Connell against allowing the uses which will be made of the Arms Bill by the select magistrates and the visiting Orange noblemen , to drivo the people of Ireland even into a war of . resistance , being well convinced that if possible the Irish people will bo compelled to fight whether they like it or not .
We entirely agree with that part of Mr . 0 Connob ' s letter , which we publish in the present number wherein he deprecates any Foreign interference in the settlement « f Irish questions . We have no doubt that this caution proceeded from the announcement of three French gentlemen having accompanied M& . O'Connell through the County of Clare . We have as little doubt that the ominous fleet now stationed at Cove and in other Irish ports , arises from an apprehension in the mind of onr rulers J that France , thirsting for revenge , would seize the opportunity of a civil war in Ireland to land an auxiliary force and arms , which the
recipients would have no delicacy about registering according to the provisions of the Arms Bill . For ourselves we have « ver opposed th « mixing up of our great ¦ national questions with " Foreign policy ; " and to-morrow , crushed as we are beneath the yoke of domestio domination , we would , if compelled , — with all our religious hatred of war—exchange the pen for the broad eword to resist the interference of Foreign mercenaries , come from what nation they may , as pretended invaders of those claB 3 privileges agaiast which we straggle with all our strength , but which , bad as they are , we would not exchange for French sway or Russian despotism .
We heed but little the rabid denunciation of Mr . O'Connell by the Tory press of England . It ; was as violent in its denunciation of American M traitors / ' until the Colonial slave became ; a free citizea and that haughty monarch , George III ., was compelled to receive at Court , aa Ambassador from Free America , the very man who but a short time before was designated a " traitor . " Again , when England was in armB to
resist the introduction of Jacobinism , and when the English press teemed with abuse of Napoleon as the leader ; of that principle , we find the English Atiobmet-Genebai-, in a few months after this denunciation , compelled to prosecute Peltier for a libel upon the character of Napoleon , a British : jury instructed io reiurn a verdict of guilty againsi the accused , and a British jury foolish enough to ob ^ y the command . Again , when tke magician ' s wand had transformed the ** Emperor of the world" into a

British prisoner , and located htm upon a rock under an iron jailer , the former protegee of the English Government ; was bespattered in his misfortunes by the ribaldry of the English press and left helpless by the English ATTOBNET-GENBtiAi ,, So will it be with the ' traitor O'Conneix . " Let him but preserve his loyalty to his country by maintaining his peaceful position to the last , and for every blow struck at the head of an Irishman let him return a double- thrust at the
sinews of the enemy ; let him hit the invader in the Stock Exchange until the supporters of Irish connexion come to learn that even " Union , " like gold dust , may be purchased at a top dear a rate ; and then perhaps" ! the traitor" O'Connell may be commanded to the presenoe of her Majesty to receive a commission to open the Irish Parliament as her representative . And ho will then be lauded by the entire " loyal" press as a consistent , firm , and persevering patriot !
To cavil just now with every word of Mr . O'Connell , or with the bluster of some of his senseless supporters would be an injustice to the people of Ireland , which we trust we are incapable of practising . We have watched the progress of events with intense anxiety ; we have chronicled the most important features of those events ; and we shall Btill continue , notwithstanding his rejection of our proffered service , and the foolish denunciation of
some of his supporters , to aid , assist , comfort and abet him in all bis legal and constitutional struggles for the achievement of his country ' s liberty ; for Ireland , . because we love heir for her virtues and the wrongs she has endured ; and for England , because we feel convinced that Ireland free , tho freedom of Englishmen must follow . It must now be understood by all with half brainp , that one of three things must happen . There must be a sacrifice . Either the Ministers must sacrifice the Union , O'Connell must be sacrificed , or the Irish priesthood must be sacrificed ; for let it not be for one moment imagined , that the devotion , even to Mr . O'Connell . by those who have suob entire
confidence in him , would not be succeeded , in case of a retreat , by reprobation stronger even than the warmth of that devotion . Terminate how the struggle- may , the people will require a satisfactory account from their priests ; and should suspicion take possession of the popular mind , the asseverations of the Irish press , strong as they might be iu support of Mr . O'Connell , would be lost in the word of the Pastor delivered from the altar ! The Irish people are less governed , or even influenced , by the newspaper press than any other people in the known world : while each parish has its own gazette , in whose word the hearers have more confidence than if an opposite version was published through all the papers in the
empire . Such then is our admonition ; such are our fears ; such our hopes ; and such the probable result that would follow a failure of the movement . We view the hopes and the fears , the strength and the weakness of Ireland with the deepest interest . At the same time we anticipate a Government onslaught ' upon the friends of freedom in England , should such a course become politic and necessary , as an example to the United Irish . For such a result we trust we shall be also prepared ; and ever ready , regardless of threatening danger , to discharge those duties which publio approbation has assigned to us with zeal , with caution , with courage , with prudence , ana with fidelity .

THE DUTY OF CHAFtTISTS IN REFERENCE TO THE REPEAL AGITATION . We are crammed out with letters upon this subject , . from all quarters ; mostly seeking information and advice . ' Someof tho writers require to know what oourse we think the Chartists generally should take ; while others—and of these are the greater numberwish for our opinion as to their joining " the Repeal ranks , " and hazarding tho insult of rejection ; and all ask us to state fully our opinion of this policy of the Repeal Club and its tendency . Now , to the first matter of inquiry we have a ready answer ; and we cannot better word it than by citing tbe resolution of our Newcastle friends . We are , with them , decidedly " of opinion that the Union of Ireland with Great Britain ia inimical to
the best interests of that country ; and as it was fraudulently accomplished contrary te the expressed wishes of the great majority of the Irish people , we do most heartily concur with that ill-used nation in their demand of an immediate Repeal ; and pledge ourselves to use every constitutional means in our power to assist them in procuring , not enly a ' domestic parliament , ' but a parliament that will be a complete reflex of the whole people , as the only sure guarantee that the people will not again be sold contrary to the inclination of the majority . " This we hold certainly to be the only thing that can
make Repeal valuable to the Irish people , or secure " Ireland for the Irish . " We are perfectly aware that O'Connell and the present Repeal Leaders do not now recognize , either practically or theoretically , the great principles of liberty included in the People's Charter . We stop not now to argue or cavil about this ; we hold him to be no friend to Ireland who would do so . It may be absolutely necessary for Mb , O'Connell and the Repeal leaders , to take precisely the course the ; are now taking ; it is evident that the ; think it is so ; and , if it be , that may probably be their reason for refusing
to amalgamate the Repeal and the Chartist movements ; at all events that must be a sufficient reason for Chartists not " joining the repeal ranks . " We have never thought it good policy in them to do so ; and certainly cannot recommend it now * We were not sorry for the "rap on tbe knuckles " that O'Connor got , as we hope it may teach him to be less ardent and more calculating . Chartism , of itself involves Repeal ; because Repeal is in justice due , to England as well as Ireland ; but Repeal ; does oot , of necessity , involve Chartism . We cannot , therefore , give up the more
comprehensive for the less comprehensive assertion of the principle of right : we cannot leave the greater to take up the less . The most effectual aid that we can give the Repeal movement , is to press forward our own agitation contemporaneously . Let no man suppose that we advise the merging of the Charter in Repeal . In the Charter we see that which must of its own nature involve Repeal , and every other measure of full justice for the people ; in Repeal we see that which may , or may not , in the first instance , bring justice to the people , though we cannot doubt that the improved moral and intellectual people of
Ireland would make it do so ultimately . We pay , then , in reference to "joining the Repeal Rknks > " do no such thing . Go on with your own movement ; strengthen your own position ; make all fair and consitutional advances to the Charter , and in the meantime give all aid to yonr Irish brethren in their struggle for tho minor measure ; and lot not their efforts for tho lesser good , shame yours for the greater . Let tho patriotic strife be one of amity and love ; so shall we aid each other . Give us the Charter , and we give Repeal to Ireland ; while if Ireland obtain Repeal before U 3 , her gallant sons will bring their new-born strength to aid as ia the
common cause . These being our views , our friends will see that we regard with mnch indifference the matter which has bo heart-burned some of them , the rejection of our aid by | O'Connell and the Repeal club . The simple question is , whether they Wish the thing they seek . Time only can determine this . If they do , there may be reasons which we cannot see to justify them in their course ; if they do not , we shall have a terrible revenge , withou ; our stirring in the matter , taken for us by the Irish people , when the cheat tfiall 09 discovered .

Thimble Rigging and Gambling in the Vicar ' s Cboft , Leeds . —A Churchwarden of Leeds calls our attention to th \ e practice which has now obtained for some time in the Vicar ' s Croft , Leeds . frequently on market days , and especially on Saturday evenings , when a number of petty gamblers meet to [ practice thimble rigging and other " low" games . He describes these gathersings ai being attended by numbers of youth , some of them of tender age , who are thus initiated in the first step of roguery , and started in the way to become confirmed thieves and pickpockets . He asks , what are the Police about ? Is there no occupation for them here ? Let the
Market Committee see to it . Ambrose Tomlinson writes to say that Mr . Tattersall , of Lancaster ] Castle , is but little belter off than Cooper and Richards at Stafford ; especially as to the matter ofl correspondence with friends , with whom he is only allowed to communicate by letter once in six months . He will not be allowed to receive a lettet hill the middle of September : and then only One ! He , therefore , wishes parties not to write to him . W . Dawson , Bradford . —The question is not forgotten . He will j soon see a plan propounded for " the accomplishment of the object nearest his heart . " 1
W . Ellis , BridportJ— We can hardly say ; but believe not } Moses Simpson , of Hanley , writes to say that Mrs . Ellis has not yet heard from Mr- Colquhoun , of Glasgow , nor from any oj the Glasgow friends , though she published her address in the Star of April 22 , in accordance with their request . Has any one been sen ' t to her , and the letter miscarried 1 She is rmxious to learn . E . Cheetam . — Won't do . John Hamber , Darlington . —We can give no advice on the subjeot . He must exercise his own judgement . London Chartist Magazine . —Persons in the
courttry wishing to obtain this work are requested to give the name of the London book agent * Mr . . Watson , 5 , Paul [ s Alley , Paternoster-row , to the country bookseller of whom they may order the work , to prevent disappointment—and if . they find any difficulty in obtaining the work through one bookseller to order it of another ^ ,-The next number will be ready for delivery on the 1 st of July . All Communications to the Chartis ' s of Kidderminster , . should be addressed to Henry Crouch ,
Dudley street , Kidderminster , Worcestershire . Mrs . Ellis desires to thank the kind Chartists of Nottingham for hhe receipt of 5 s , through the medium of Mr . James Sweet . Robert Allan . — We \ are unable to find room for many speeches sent us that have been delivered . he therefore will \ see the impossibility of giving his , which has not been delivered . Routes op Lecturers—Again we notice that all 11 routes" sent here , to ensure publication , must be signed by the § ub secretary of the lioality , or district , where the arrangements are made for We will not in \ fu ' ure publish any that may be sent without such signatures . It is not right that any locality should be visited by a lectirer ,
unless he has corresponded with them , and made mutual arrangements . Considerable inconvenience has arisen to portions of the Chartist body from unarranqea-for visit * , which we have partially caused by printing unauthorised " routes . " We shall do so no more . F . W . Sjmeon , 10 , Temple-street , Bristol , wishes the secretaries ofj the Association at Merthyr to send him a letter per first post , with their a < dress , as he has something of importance to communicate . j Jordan Chadwick .- | -TP can hardly understand his question . Whe-e is the si . an he speaks off Is it over their meeting place ? If so , it had better read , Chartists ? Meeting Room . " In corresbe
ponding it must ^ remembered , that distinct local bodies cannot , as such , correspond with each other ; and therefore all correspondence necessary between Rochdale and other places must be conducted by their respective secretaries , not officially as secretaries , but as individuals . A non-attention to this point will subject Vie parties to very severe penalties . We hope to see this state of things [ remedied ; and the numerous risks by which the combined efforts of the people to obtain justicelare now surrounded , entirely removed . This can be done , by petting our society enrolled ^ under the Benefit Societies ' Act ; and this enrollment we can have by uniting the Land Question with the assertion of general
principle . We lean then have a society with brauohas , governed by distinct local officers , who can correspond with each other , and act in every way necessary to carry out the lawful objects « j [ the society , without inconvenience , or risk of penal statute . We are at present engaged in " concocting a plan of organiza . - tion which will j secure to the Chartists these immense advantages . As soon as it is in a condition to be laid before the members of lite Chartist Association , we shall submit it to them . Mr . PiTkethly , and his American Information . —Thursday ' s post brought us the following note
from Mr . Pitkethly in answer to the notice given in last week ' s Star , of a strong desire existing for the \ publication , in a cheap and accessible form , of his " Esiigbant ' s Constant Companion . " We full y approve of the course suggested by MrlP . ; for the agents of the Star and other Jriends to procure lists of subscribers . It would not be \ reasonable to expect Air . Pitkethly to go to the expense of printing , unless he had before him a prospect of re-payment . The lists , when ready , should be sent to him ; or the agents might [ write to say how many copies of the work they would engage to take . Here is Mr . P . ' s letter . — HuddenBeld , 21 st June , 1843 . TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN STAR . Dear Sir , —Your note to correspondents in the Star of last week has ! drawn my attention to the desire which exists among your correspondents that the Notes of my Tour through a portion of the United States , which have appeared in your co umns , should also be published in a book form . I have also been flattered by many pressing requests verbally , and by letter , made to myself , to the same end . It must be evident to all who peruse those Notes , that they have been thrown together in great haste , and under very unfavourable cir cum stances . In fact , they are badly arranged , and abound with tautology . This , of coarse , in any future publication , could be remedied ; and if I should engage in
such publication ; shall be attended to . I would recommend | in the mean time , and before any additional [ trouble is taken , or expense incurred , that subscription lists be fixed in all places waere the Star is sold , or such other places as may j be considered eligible , where parsons might have an opportunity to place their nameB for one or more copies . By these means it will speedily lie seen whether there are a sufficient number desirous of having tbe book to cover the expense of publication . If so , no time will be lost in putting it into band . The work can be brought out in threepenny or sixpenny numbers ; as this plan might suit poor persons better . Art expression of their wishes , on tbe part of the public , will be valuable for the guidance of
those concerned . I am confident that no friend of mine would desire that I should bazud a loss in publishing The " Notes of my Tear , " and " Instructions to Emigrants , " after baring already inenrred so considerable an expense , and otherwise made sacrifices to obtain tbe information I possess . Tbe reason for pUcjtog those matters upon paper will therefore be obvious . 1 I ami dear Sir , Yours very faithfully , L . PITKETHLY .
P . S . —In order to prevent disappointment to my numerous correspondents throughout the country , you will perhaps be kind enough to allow me to state that I ( intend to leave home for Scotlaud in a few days , and that I shall not return home for a few j weeks . Persons , therefore , desiring copies of the rules of the " British Emigrants' Mutual Aid Society , " and who would apply , toj me , had better apply to Mr . Crabtree , No 3 , 1 Broad-street , Halifax , the Secretary of the Society , who will gladly furnish them with any information they may require .

TO THE COLLIEKS OF LANCASHIRE . Friends , —We have the honour to inform you that we were on the 10 th of June , 1843 , at a Delegate Meeting of theMinera Association , holden at Newcastle , appointed to perambulate Lancashire ; for the purpose of laying before you the objects and purposes of tbe Miners Society , and form branches in everyiViUage , town , or colliery is your county . The leading objects of oui Bociety are to diminish the hours of labour , and to obtain the highest possible amount of wages for the hours we may work .
. We know th&t it is only by Union that we can accomplish suck a purpose ; therefore we request your cordial co-operation with us : for we know that our inte rests are so intimately connected , that it is impossible for one district to be oppressed without the other feeling the effects . We know that it is impossible for us to gain oar rights and liberties and maintain them , if yon are not also made participants with us . We wish therefore , to provide work and wages for every man at his own home , or in his own county ; so that we shall not have to wander op and down the country like vagabonds , taking each others emt'loyineat ; contending one with another as to which can Bell bis labour for tbe least money .
Several of the most itflaential mining districts of England and Scotland axe now enlisted under the banner of Union . We trust the day is not far distant When the colliers of England will form one link in the grand chain of " Union" which is to extend from John-O Groats House to tho Land ' s End in Cornwall , and to the most distant corner of Wales . Where iu the power that could prevent the colliers from occupying their just position , had we an union of this sort established 1 Brethren , we are entirely etrangers to your district We hope , however , that tha readers of the Star , no matter what their calling , will render us all the assistance they possibly can , ia the glorious cause . Oar success will ba for the interest » f the public at large .
We propose to commence our labours at Oldhaia about the twenty-seventh of the present month . Any place desirous of our services will greatly oblige us by writing a note stating the fame , or any other information addressed to us , to the care of the agen t * of th » Star , at Oldham or YVjgan ; aud we pledge ourselves that they shall be duly attended to . If any lover of freedom will be ao kind as to call a public meeting of tbe colliers at Oldham , on Monday the 3 rd of July , either in the Chartist Hall , or in any other publie plaee most convenient , and certify the same in tbe next number of the Star , they will render a great service to the cause of suffering humanity and greatly serve the society we have the honour to represent .
Now is the time , or never , for the colliers I See Lord Howick ' s speech in the House of Commons on the repeal of the coal duty . We are now beginning to be noticed in the Parliament House ! He wishes to let Government loose upon us ; but we bid defiance ta both him and Government ; for "Union and Peace " i s our motto , and " Law and Order" our watchword . Brethren , arise t look after your own rights . The cruel taak-masttra feel that we have adopted the right plan for abridging their unholy power ; aud they are trying all the means that evil ingenuity can invent to get you within the meshes of the law , by plunging you into a premature strike ! but laugh tofBcorn those who ¦ wisb . this to delude you ! !
Look before you leap ! Calculate well where you are ; what it ia you are urged to do ; and take stock of the meatts you are possessed of , to do it ! Be wary 1 Be prudent ! Organise yourselves . Get into a position that you can know what the men of the North are about ; and they know what you are about : be so that you can understand the feelings of year brethren all over the kingdom , before you even give the idea of a stake a Testing-place in sour mind . Better to " best the ills we have" a short time longer , and organise ourselves for their complete eradication , than ensure failure by premature action . Caution and prudence is essential to our cause ! Dear Brethren , —Our sincere prayer is that our mission may be a blessing to you and to generation yet unknown . Dear brethren , We are your humble Servants , David Swallow , Daniel Thompson .
