We have for some time had on hand this impor tant document; but have been prevented from lay ing it before our readers until now. It loses, how ever, none of its interest, from the delay in its pub lication; but will well repay a perusal at any time. The gi l eat work aimed at by the Chartist party, is here set forth. They have, as it were, but made the preliminary arrangements for as commencement, but the outline looks . well. John Bull takes a long time tp think—longer to get warm—but when he has done thinking, and concludes to act, he general ly actaj effectively. We hope he may do so in this case. IWe, as republicans, would highly commend the tone and style of this petition; but we can be stow no higher encomium upon it, in these respects, than isdone by a" Whig" paper in England. The London Morning Chronicle of April 7th, in speak ing of it says:— " The petition in remarkable for the clearness of the language, the calmness of its tone, the precision of the!; thoughts, and the logical connection of the reasoning. Grant the premises and you are in a dead lock as regards the inferences. Allow the first item and you allow the whole account. The atippo.. sed right of every man to the elective franchise, is the foundation of the whole fabric." This " supposed right" Democrats have no doubt about.When,however,it is recollected that the whole popubition of the United Kingdom amounts to about 27,000,000; that, of these, 93,000 own every foot of the land these millions inhabit; and that, in England but one man to every nineteen of the population is entitled to a vote, it may well be doubted, whether mere petitions will secure to the masses " the sepa rate and equal rights to which the laws of Nature, and of Nature's God, entitle e believe that the population of Great Britain will be among the last, among the present citised population of the world, to enjoy the 'timings of republicanism. A Pittsburgh Prophet. Metre, of Philadelphia, has a most determined oppinMnt in this city. We gave, a few days since, some of the curious statements made in his "Ho, o scope" for May; and the Gazette at once came out with some prophesies far more wonderful and un expected than any we have ever heard of from HAGUE; and he has made some that have proved to be as, "true as preaching.' , MI the suggestions to farmers, by the Philadelphia prophet, which we gave, were to be verified as true, during this month! Hear tbe prophecy of the Gazette :-- " These suggestions to farmers by Hague, are ful. ly as valuable as the suggestions of Walker on the tariff, Shenk on Banking, or Pillow on fortification. The theories of the three w ill be reduced to prac tice at the same time the three vagaries of Hague are realized." We were almost dispoded to rejoice, on reading the nbove, at the happy influences so soon to sur round our beloved country :—equitable notions on the subject of commerce; unwavering opposition to all swindling corporations; and a just regard for each others , military fame, among distinguished commanders ;—all these were to be realized, at the same time with Hague , ' prophecies ! But how magical are all the effects, at times, of even a single thought!--all our disposition to rejoice!—all our bright anticipations of the realization of the hopes of yearal all the pictured harmony among our coup trymen 'on these vexed questions !—all deatroyed, by the uprising of a, single thought—the editors of the Gazelle are false prophets! They have never made one true prophecy ; and Hague, (if he has missed it sometimes,) has often prophecied truly ! The editors of the Gazette, therefore need not in dulge in the hope that they can outdo the Philadel phia prophet:—for they know nothing about the rules by, which he fortells events. "Two or A TRADE" &c.—Gen. Scott does not think much of Gen. Taylor. Gen. Scott desires to be a Whig candidate for the Presidency. Gen T. desires to be a candidate for Any or no-piny. Of course, it is the cat and dog story of affection in re petition between them. Indeed the modest Gen. Scott proposes, we ace, in his letters to the War de partment to establish the capture of Vera Cniz, the battle of Cerro Gordo, and the - battles before the city of Mexico, as the basis of the entire campaign in Mexico—thus placing the battles and triumphs of General Taylor In a subordinate point of view. Now, although we think Con. Taylor utterly unfit for the Presidency, we love him as a brave and gallant sol dier, and the conceit of Gen. Scott in his attempt thus to diminish the importance of Gen. Taylors victorieecan only excite the contempt of the Amer ican public.—Philadelphia Times. 0 , 71 - The Prussian Slate Gazette announces that by an lidperial order of the 27th ultimo the Russian Government has prohibited the exportation of rye, flour of every kind, and oats from the kingdom of Poland, until thither notice. This announcement is evidently of considerable importance both in a mer cantile and a military point of view. It virtually pats an end for the present to a large portion of the supplies of co*shippeil in the Prussis,n ports and drawn from Perdnd; and it indicates thil. formation of large granaries of corn for the supply of the army now beingg - collected on the Polish frontier. JUDGE Ma re:v.—The Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette, says: " During the put week, a large body of Whigs, in both Houses, have openly ezpressed a desire to adopt Jtidge McLean as a compromise candidate. This demoustration is confined to no section or in terests, but from an anxiety to reconcile all contention; and to go into the canvass with one who has everything to recommend him. Simultaneously, several resjlectable journals of the North and East have raited;jiis name at the head of their colueins." Well, the whigs are going to have an interesting time.

APPROVED, April 13, 184 S. THE CHARTIST PETITION. To the Hon. the common( of Great Britain and Ire land, in parliament assembled. We, the undersigned inhabitants of the British Isles, and subjects of the British Crown, thus avail ourselves of the constitutional privilege of submit ting the consideration of our political rights tied wrongs to your honorable house, in the hope that they will receive from you that degree of attention which the importance of the one and the oppressiee• ness cf the other demand from the guardians of the civil, social, and religions rights of the people. Your petitioners declare, that the great end of all governmental institutions should be the protection of life, the security of property, the promoyon of edu cation and morality, and the diffusion of happiness among all classes. That ,your petitioners consider the only legitimate basis of an equitable government is the expret /lion of the mind of the whole-male adult population, through the untrammeled agency of the franchise. That your petitioners regard she representation in Parliament of every man of sound mind as a right compatible with, and sustained by, the laws of nature and of God, and that mass privation by his fellow creatures of such right is an act which, if tolerated evidences the existence of tyranny & injustice upon the one hand, and severity and degredation upon the other. That your petitioners regard the Reform Bill as unjust , as it restricts the right of citizenship to one seventh of the male adult community, and stamps the other six-sevenths with the stigma of political inferiority. That the system which yourpetitioners arraign be fore the judgment of your honorable house, renders seven men subservient to the will, caprice, and dominance of one; that it not only establishes the ascendancy of a small minority of the empire, but it investsa minority of the small enfranchised fraction with the power of returning a majority of your hon orable home. • That your petitioners have never yet beard a valid reason urged for maintaining the present represents tore system; and. that the arguments pleaded against the admission of the people to the immunities which the social contract should guarantee, are based upon class selfishness, prejudices, and contracted views of humanity. That your petitioners hold the elective franchise not to be a trust, as has been absurdly represented, but a right inherent in every man for ,the preserva tion of his person, liberty and property, which is to be exercised to the best of the possessor's judgment without let or hindrance from hisneighbor. That your petitioners, believing the principle of universal suffrage to be based upon those eternal rights of man which, although kept in abeyance, can be neither alienated nor destroyed, appeal to your honorable house to make sueh organic reforms in our representative system as will make that prin ciple the fobndation upon which shall stand the Commons House of Parliament of Great Britain. That your petitioners, in order that the elector may possess perfect security in the exercise of his franchise, pray that the voting at elections for mem bers of Parliament betaken by ballot. Your peti tioners, aware of the great, coercive, and corrupted power possessed by wealth and station over the poor elector, see no hope of securing purity of elec tion and genuineness of representation, but in throw ing the protective mantle of the ballot over the elec toral body. That your petitionera regard the predpnt inequali ty of representation to be opposed tocommen sense, and inimical to a genuine representation of the peo ple. They therefore appeal to your honorable house to remedy this defect in the legislative ma chinery, by the division of the country into equal doctorial districts, assigning to each district one representative. thatyour petitioners hold the legislature, equally with the executive, to be the servants of the people, and consequently entitled to renumeration at the public expense; and, believing that the House of Commons shoud be the minister and not the master of the people, call upon you to establish their just relative petitions by fixing an equitable salary for the service of its members. That your petitioners consider septennial Parlia ments unjust, as they prevent, for six years out of seven, those who are annually arriving at maturity from exercising the right of sufferage. Your peti tioners also consider that seven years is too long..a term for the existence of a Parliament; a. period that affords an opportunity to venal and time serving men to promote their selfish interests at the expense of those whose welfare should be the ultimate aim of all their labors. Your petitioners, .therefore entreat your honerable house to create between the repre sentative and the represented that salutary responsi bility indispensible to good 'government, by the re storation of the ancient wholesome practice, of an nual Parliaments. That your petitioners complain that a seat in Com mons House of Parliament should not be contingent upon the possession of property of any description, ■s they have yet to learn that legislative talent is the exclusive prerogative of any order of men; and therefore pray for the abolition of what is termed the "property qualification." That your petitioners' respectfully direct your at tention to the document entitled "The People's Charter," which embodies the principles and details for sscuring the full and , equitable representation of the male adult popultation, which dootiments they earnestly - pray Innr. honorablelhoese' to .forth with enact'se the - law of the realm. hiield the Metabers of 'your honerable house en tertain any doubts mita-this justice , of our demands, your petitioners humbly entreat% to be heard at the tar of your honorable house by counsel Or agents in support of those claims.

IT was WANTED.—The Managers of the Rosin° Association of this city have opened an office in their store, No. 204 north Eighth street, for the pur pose of supplying families with doinestics.—Phila- Tfelphia Bulletin. t er Are we ever to have such an Association in this city. "It is wanted." We can not look out in to!tke streets without seeing the necessity for some means of securing females from the dreadful results of Destitution. If the benevolent ladies of this city would mare as energetically in this matter as they do in some foolish undertakings, we Would soon see a Rosin° Association in successful operation. Will not the Philadelphia friends publish an address set ting forth their plans„present condition, prospects of success, &c. It will tend to start the project here and elsewhere. Wants —Ear'y in the allemoon,of yesterday, a lovely and interesting son, about two years old, of Mr.Criswell,engineer at the Jail, was murdered, we may say, in front of the Court house, Grant street, Pittsburgh. The immediate cause of the death of this sweet, child, was the passing of a loaded cart over its body, by which it was instantly haled. The occasion or this bereavement is solely chargeable to wilful and gross negligence on the part of the driver of the cart. ft#3" The above is unjust, if we are rightly inform ed. The cart did not rasa over his body; because the driver stopped the homes soon impossible; but the death was caused by the wheel striking the lad's head. his a melancholy affair; hut why blame an innocent man, merely because the accident occur red through his instrumentality. air Mr. Craver did not furnish ns with a copy of his report of the ascension, as he promised ; but we 'II forgive him this time. He must not forget his friends stain. We - hope he may succeed in collecting a suf . & cut amount of money to warrant him in making another excursion through the - clouds. The people owe him as much as he requires. There were but few who did not turn out to witness if:A adventure, and all were gratified. Should they not pay a tri fling sum fur the pleasure Mr. C. afforded them Permitted to Escape.—On accoulit or their ,respec ntble connections' the scoundrels wlro passed the Taylor medal on a German woman - -.in Allegheny city have been allowed to escape pu oihment. •Plate in with gold,' and it tomes as current as the genu ine coin !—Dispotch. They were permitted to escape because they were not guilty, a very good reason, we think. Dron•-r.--A gentleman tried to trade off a ring to alady in market on Wednesday, for some butter. But she knew " what was what" - and did o't. The ring was worth one cent. The fellow is one of them, and we predict -that he will some of these days be at the mercy of the Quarter Sessions. friir Several children were lost and found yester day, notwithstanding the inclemency of the weath er. We notice that on clear days, Lynch with his Dell, does the beat business. When the sun shines, the little ones escape and are not easily found ; but a dollar to the ringer generally brings them back. h4ritonisr ONFERENCE.—The proceedings were uninteresting yesterday.
