At eight o'clock Mr. Taylor, of Royton, was unanimously called Dr.

FITTON; of Royton, then rose to move the first resolution, which was, That in the opinion of this meeting, the National petition and people's charter, embmcmgthe five meat principles of Radical reform, ought to he adopted, we Liitrtai when euzht years. ne was sure mcj wuuiu said he was sure they would allrecol ago, Earl Grey came upon wnica no cnmo iuiu uui, .7 stantial measures of reform, they fiSLfZ saying, that no people in any part of the kmgdom showed a Jl. fh nsnnlfi of Oldham to attend to the (Hear.) t. tw. the conduct of the Radical re mo frnTifimiis and forbearine the extreme.

(Hear, hear.) Tne pianos reiorm by Earl Grey was not such a one as they approved of; but they saw, or at least they thought they saw, in that measure of reform a decided improvement in the old rotten borough system; and they were willing to up the more perfect principle with the understanding that they should have the benefit of a substantial Parliamentary reform and during the whole of that struggle from November, 1830, till June, 1832, even in. the final passing of the Reform Bill, the inhabitants of Oldham were never deficient in giving all the assistance in their power to that administration which was pledged to carry reform. Having now waited six years for the blessings of that reform, they had at last been driven back, to make use 01 a military phrase, into the position from which they originally aiiflVnom. annual parliaments, vote by ballot, D.EUMfU, UMHVIlWi He stated these facts to prove that it was not from any factious feelings towards the uovernmeni ui induced to make this movement. (Hear.) Glad would they, have been if the measures of the Government had been such as they could cordially have approved but this not being the case, they could not thus far- falsify their principles, feelings, opinions, and former professions as to give confidence to a party that had already, deceived them, Hear, hear, and loud cheers.) The speaker then briefly touched upon each ot tne six points, and showed their necessity, refuting the objections brought against the subject of their present meeting.

The speaker concluded amidst loud cheers. Mr. ALEX. TAYLOR rose to second the resolution. He was proud to see so many of his fellow Radicals once more assembled, endeavouring to achieve that which some one or other had said they must and would achieve (Cheers) he meant their political rights.

(Cheers.) There were some individuals who said that universal suffrage went too tar. turgor, fhav aniA that in him. his' renlv always was, that work went too fer." (Cheers.) For if a man could work he could vote, and he had a right to a vote to protect his labour. Those who lived in luxury were those who. ought not" to vote, if any distinction was to be made.

He was firmly of opinion, that those who worked ought to have a vote lor if any thing was necessary to show them that this -was right, let "them consider how every eatable commodity was now rising, while wages were at a stand, and poor people were scarcely able to keep body and soul together. This proved they had a right to a vote to protect their own interests. If they had the power of choosing their own representatives, they would then know better how to regulate these and' he hoped the would never be satisfied till they obtained the suffrage. (Cheers.) MY r.OWRKTT fof Manchester) said Gentlemen, I can assure you most sincerely, that I feel deeply grateful to your committee for the kindness which they have shown to me by invitihgmfc to this meeting I could not, without displaying the most absurd vanity, attribute their kindness to any merit of my own; know well what recollections have prompted them in this matter, and if it were possible that I could hereafter acquire more fame arid more "honour than ever man acquired before, I should never feel so much pride as I feel at this, moment. I can but congratulate you, gentlemen, on the position which the Radicals have now taken, and particularly the Radicals of Oldham, for the meeting before me, considering the popUl'attohbf the district, far exceeds any meeting yet held onthis subject never before did the working men ot England stand face to face with their enemies with so bold and so de-WminnA on and never before did they stand so com.

pletely alone. The Whigs taunt us with the of our being-alone the middle cjasses, say the Wbigs, the wealth ana inteuigence, as iney cau it, with you the lovers of rational liherty" will not join you, and therefore you will not succeed. Gentlemen, I regret that the middle classes are not with us; I regret it, hot for the sake of the cause; regret it, not for the sake of the people; I regret it for the sake of the middle classes themselves. A change must come; whether we succeed now or not, success must, in the end, attend our efforts; I wish to see, you all wish to see such a change as may benefit all, as may place all classes of the people upon a proper footing with each other such a change as may give to the labourer the due advantage of his labour, and to the man of property the due advantage of hisproperty. But if the middle and higher classes of society will not accept of those advantages which we offer them with brotherly kindness, then be the consequences of their obsti-naoy upon their own heads.

I have heaTd some men express surprise that the people are not joined now, as they were in 1831, by the middle classes. Gentlemen, I never expected that they would join us now, at least, that they would willingly join us. The fact is, that 1831 the pe6ple joined Htm. The effect of the Reform Bi was to place the middle classes upon a more equal footing with the hieher. The interest and the vanity of the middle classes made them wish forHhat change; but it was no change in favour of the working people.

The middle classes were carried triumphant upon the shoulders of the people into the House of Commons; the people made them aU-powerful, and in return for their disinterested efforts, they have been more savanely treated than the working people were ever treated before They have been crammed into prisons worse than felons'' gaols for no other crimes than their poverty; they-have been transported, and shot, because they were not willing to die by starvation. How, then, can it be e. r.tH the men who have done all this will now willingly join with us to crush their own sysiem They may, however, commenced, vm wouip.Tiace pw -v the hands of the people, no wouia turn "ZZ they must not joined enfranchise themselves. But to crown his career of infamy, he dared to insult the ashes of the brave United Irishmen-i-a fellow who never made a sacrifice in the 'cause of truth or liberty who, from first to last, made a trade of principle-such a man darea to insuic uui bsuc ui men lay in the bloody grave to which despotism had consigned them. (Tremendous cheers.) He would tell Mr.

O'Connell that the humblest man who fought and died for his country was a better mari than "he was, or tttti any of'the vde who were leagued along with him. He would tell him, that the name of a Fitzgerald and an Emmet would be embalmed in the hearts of posterity, when the name of an O'Connell would be mentioned only with, execration. (Ire. mendous cheers.) They wanted the men of Ireland.to join with them in struggling for equal rights-they. wanted them to be foremost in.

the race, and so might Heaven prosper the cause of Englishmen as they would do justice to their brothers in that lovely and much-wronged land. The poor-law that had been given to Ireland was pernicious; it was so, because it was based upon the imprisonment principle of the English law. Did not Mr. O'Connell know that orie-third of the tithes belonged to the poor of Ireland He knew it weH, for he had himself brought volumes, of books into the house to prove that it belonged to them; and yet, did he insist on obtaining for the poor this their rightful property? No, he would give their property to the landlord instead of the parson, and what mattered it how many of the poor famished? (Loud: cheers.) Was the landlord less rapacious than the parson? (No, No; and whilst this property of the poor-wmained the hands of the parsons there was some chance of its being resumed, but once in the hands of the landlord, they were done with-it. He 'asserted that Mr.

O'Connell never agitated for one? object which had a tendency to put a potato on the poor man's dish. Never had such a state of things existed in any country as had been perpetrated in Ireland; the famishing labourer was compelled to support the wandering beggar whilst the door of the rich man was shut against him. Let. the people, of Ireland now join with Englishmen, and they tinii havo inatii-A snchiustice as will rive her employment, and food and raiment its meet rewaiu. auuu ju would enable her to maintain her people in comiort ana independence.

A good poor-law would compel the landlords to give the people employment on that soil which was given by God hot to the landlord but to tho people of Ireland. (Hear, hear.) The middle classes had got their rights, and they would turn in ireianu as mej itu a the greatest enemies of the people. How had the, trades unions. been used? Why, when they huzza'd for mock reform, they were the best fellows in the world when they wished for its reality, the treacherous middle classes, with the apostate at their head, turned round and abused them. (Loud cheers.) Let.his Irish friends fling personal pique to the winds the distance was not so great that divider! them the interests of the labouring classes were identical, let them then start up by.

the side of, Englishmen; they, should have liberty in the fullest sense of the word, they deserved it. Ireland was the land in which the bayonet, the dungeon, and the halter, could never quench the: voice freedom that voice had echoed from a thousand hills and rose from a thousand glens. and it would never die whilst, the spirit of one Irishman survived. (Loudcheers.) Let then, the movement', whose object was a union of ob-iect was not to sell their country, whose object was to give justice to all; to the labourer' his hire, and to the rich man his wealth; to secure freedom of worship and freedom of laws; that a mammon church and a landed oligarchy should not eat up thfe vitals of a country, whilst her gallant sons and lovely daughters went to seek out early graves on the other ade of the Atlantic. Their cause was.

thatof freedom and humanity, and the labouring men of the three countries would rise up, and who should resist these incensed myriads, of men their success was as certain as fate, for God himself had sworn that the oppressor should perish. Irishmen should be free-free tho nn her ruseed shore, free as the wind on her lofty mountain, free by the charter that will give liberty at once to the people of England, Scotland, and Ireland. (Loud and repeated cheers.) The resolution, as follows, was then put, and carried unanimously That we feel ourselves called npon to express onr abhorrence and unqualified condemnation of the tyranny and miigovernment which has for many age's marked English rtrle iu Ireland. Mr. COCKBURN, in moving the second resolution, ah- eredthe calumny that the Radicals were associated with Tories; and ridiculed O'Connell's.

objections to he pointed to these as a. refutation of the calumny, and he bill and the coercion bill, that now is thelaw of the land to show that these base men were the aangerous enemies ui the rights of Irishmen, (Loud cheers.) m. a'Vr apnniipd the resolution. He expressed his deep sympathy for the Irish who were wronged, not by the people 01 uui uiu aiaAa3 the" Whig. cry.

-of justice to said, the abominable Whigsof Newcastle had raised a monumentto Earl Grey, Ireland's worst enemy, and he was given to understand, that Whig-O'Connell had himself subscribed to its expense. After giving a complimentary character to the Irishmen, with whom he had worked-he. expressed hi3 ardent hopes that they would join their English brethren, and promised them that, before twelve months, went round, Ireland would tbe free. The resolution was then put as follows, and carried wiJr acclamation: That, knowing thepower anil privileges of theEnglish nation have been long usurped by a mere minority (of the people, wa also Know iv, intamnt. and hsis been the oraotice.

of the falsely-styled government of England to sow dissension and create distrust between the peoplaof England arid Ireland, in order that both nations, losing sight of- their real interests, might riot-use eneciuai measures oppo. sition to the continuance of their nefarious and tyrannical usurpation. Mr. RALPli CORRY moved the third resolution. He said he was an Englishman, buthadbeen four years in Ireland, arid he was convinced thatjwithout universal suffrage and a repeal of the union no good could ever be done, for.

that country. Be landed there in autumn, her fields were stul green, and her valleys rilled with corn, a quiet grandeur re-posed upon her. blue mountains-r(Loud cheers)and her lakes and streams appeared sheets and living He thought surely this land must be the abode of happiness arid peace; but quickly was he undeceived he found such misery as he never bpfore had witnessed. He had once looked upon Daniel O'Connell with veneration, he expected that he wrould do something to remove the miseries of his but never had that maiviauai aone any one imug iuwiua.8iiM 'the people something to eat. hear.) He believed that neither he nor the Whigs wished to do justice to Ireland; arid if Ireland was once free, as he trusted she soon would be, neither the Whigs nor Dan.

O'Connell would have much tb do in her concerns. Ifthat man had beeu sincere, repeal, of the 'union, and only repeal of the union, would cry. (Loud cheers.) Mr. C. here drew a vivid picture of the decayed state of Dublin, and said, that what the people of Ireland wanted was not a Whig mayor for Limerick or Dublin, they wanted employment and food.

Much talk had he heard about whitefeet, but had he been an Irishman he would have b.een the greatest ever existed. He had seen, thein eat sea-weed whilst the fine field lay before them which they dared not cultivate, or if they did, there was an increase of rent to take away the whole produce. What had O'Cbn-nelt'done- to remedy this state of things (Cries of nothing," and loud cheers.) He was in the army at the time; and he cbul'd: assure the meeting that it was the law of physios which gained emancipation mutiny arose their ranks, every Catholic soldier was determined to have it, arid; there-fm. jt. Was conceded.

Moral means, properly speaking, would gain them nothing, what had been obtained was wrung from fear, and what they were now seeking. for, would be. gained in the same way, if they did not. fight. they 'must at least be in a fighting attitude; he knew, they would not.

meet a fight; but they must strip for the encounter. (Tremendous cheering.) He called upon them to unite for universal suf frage. The Irish were good fighters and if they only joined for universal1 suffrage, depend upon it before twelve months thev wbuld be free. Dearly was he attached to that people unsuspecting, generous arid hospitable, but impetuous, mind lypu. WeU, all the better for making tyranny mae its neaa.

THE NATIONAL hnigei the Northern On Tuesday evening, a public meeting of the Hadical h'fiid in the New Lecture ROoni, Nelson-street, for the purpose of considering the.be'st means of extending tne nana 01 inenasmp '0 uyjio. in Ireland.

At half-past seven o'clock Thomas Doubleday, was called to the chair. 'iM, riw a rp ma xr and fellow-countrymen, this meeting is called for the purpose of holding out the right hand of fellowship to our gulled and oppressed brothers in Ireland. They were cognizant of what was gomg on, in the country, and they, therefore, must know that Daniel Con-, nell, who was so well received in this town about fouryears since, has so far forgot himself as -to launch, forth what he must call a base and unfounded calumny agamst theinglish r.ria m- nPnnncli Iiail. in (L.verv.recent letter, dared to say that the Irish Bill was passed with the consent of all parties in England, those parties being Whig, Tory, and Radical. (Shame, shame.) Need he tell toe men ground him that they were the first to come forward at that crisis, arid signby against that biU.

Wnrihom Pnlitinai Ilnion.also nassed an address to the people Of Ireland, in which they protested, in terms the most solemn and emphatic, that thty never would join with nnnari Anil 'vfit. with these facts staring him in the face, Mr. O'Coriiiell had the hardihood to assert that this bill, begotten 'born of the Whigs, was the work of the people of England. (Loud cheers.) He had no personal reason to, speak ugainst Mr. O'Connell; that gentleman had spoken of.

him ithan once in the most flattering terms, but never be seduced from his duty by flattery, he should stand by principle and the people of England, arid: whoever should calumniate them he would stand forth in his indignation, and tell him'to his teeth that he was a calumniator. (Great cheering;) But Mr. O'Connell had not been content with merely calumniating the people of Erigland-he had a purpose to serve he counselled the warm-hearted, the the hospitable men of Ireland he counselled them to run-'against the impulse of their better nature, and not connect themselves with the Radical reformers of England. He told them that the English.Radicals were likely to get themselves into illegal, proceedings. Now, tn'at.

Mr. O'Connell. who was a great lawyer, and a great professor of liniversal suffrage- shouldjse tliey never had got far enough into illegal proceedings, to have judgment passed by default, as did that honourable gentleman himself. A candid man would have judgedfrpm the past, and taken from it an index the future, He endeavoured to 'dissuade his countrymen from joining the English people inthis deadly struggle. Says they have.no leaders, or, if they cannotlead them right." (Loudcheers.) He was not so egotistical as to mark himself outas one of their leaders, but he would say for them and for their, proceedings he would say it plainly, it did not require like too.

many, say trigs now-a-days, to be like a gdded pill he would say, that jf any of the gentlemen who were designated leaders, had sat in the House of Commons with 60 members to vote along with him, they would have made a change that Mr. OfConneU did not make iri the. condition of the country. He wpttld not longer occupy their attention they, jrere' assembled the hand of frieridship to their oppressed brothers he knew they would 'give it cordially, arid'he requested they, would give deep, attention to the speakers that were about to them, Mr. THOMASON moved the, first resolution.

Mr. LOWERV, in seconding the, resolution, said, he was sorry that Ireland had not got rid of man-worship.

He honoured the people for their attachment to men, but when they.directed it to a man who had betrayed them into, the hands of the Whigs; when he saw that man with a recklessness of truth and an abandonment of principle which had no parallel in the world's history, attempt to drag the prostrate spirits of the people at his chariot wheels, he could riot repress his feelings, he could not help telling- the people of Ireland that what was once their glory was becoming their (Loud cheers.)
