- - - - - - - - MIL BOEBUCK, QUE AID ST lON. THE ANSILICAN Teeterday, at noon, an open-air meeting was held in Sheeisid to hear en address from Mr. Roebuck, M.P., sad pus resolutions upon the question of intervention in Amensean affairs. Many thousands of persona were present. The Strut presided. Mr, ftworcx, in the coons of a long and apaxll, raid—The question which we have come here to discuss, so far as lam concerned, is an entirely English question. What I have to corder is what is for the interest of Engird. What is for her in terest !believe to be for the interest of the world. We bold such *position OA eyed' , step' taken by England sa a country reverberates throughout the whole world, sad influences the happiness of every man. (Hear, hear, and a loud voice ' No," followed by cries of " Turn him out," and confusion.) Many years ago Eogland planted great colonies in America. They raised themselves up to a great height. They became three millions of people ; and they then determined to separate from England. They &petered thus they had a right to separate when they thought lit to do so. They supported that judgment of theirs be arms. They fought England; they beat England —they declared themselves independent. The consular° , of it is that they established this great principle among mankind—that when a people are determined to throw off a yoke, whatever that yoke may ho, they have the right to do no. (Cheers, end " ho, no.") England resisted these people. Then came France to aid them. Preece entered into an alliance with our revolted colonies. Thereupon we declared war against France. We carried ..n that war. We were again beaten. We yielded the inde pendeoce of Americo, and we made a peace with France. Then again we established another great principle, that when • people are fighting for their liberty, it is in the , 1 power of any Oiler state —any neutral power—to ally them selves with the eocalled lighting body. They have a right to do so, and if they have the power to maintain themselves, they are justified in doing so. Now, after above 80 ran of alliance, the United States of America have separated in two. A large body of these States, calling themselves the Confederate States, declared that they would no longer be allied to these United States, but would make themselves independent. (Hear, hear.) They are exactly in the position of the Amman colonies with regard to Engird in the year 1777. (No, no.) They separated. They hed • future before them such as so people ever had before. They had • wonderfully fertile country, in tersected with great rivers. They began a free people. They continued a free people. They had English law, the English language, English literature : and they were placed in a position such as was never occupied before. Their career for eighty years was one of unparalleled prosperity. Bat between them there has grown up • feeling of antago nism. The South were determined to separate. They did separate ; and men in Easter mourned that separation, and no one more than myself, because I believed that if they ad separate a great check would be given to the ad vaacement of mankind. The North was septratagfrom the South, and the North began to se And here the lesson I want to read to you. I m t. y I mounted a i t 'e = seperatiou. But the North themselves, from the very commencement, were so cruel, so determined on empire— (hear, hear, sad no, no)—that they forgot charity, they for. got Christianity ; they made themselves a spectacle to the world of cruelty, corruption, and horror. (Cheers.) The South stood up, like the real deseendants, as they are, of liaglialunen. (Her, hear.) They said. "We will vindi cate to ourselves the right to govern ourselves ; we will fight to the death for our indepeademce." And they have fought to the death. (Cheers. A voice " Slavezy.") They have conquered the North. (Hear, bear and cheers, and erns of " No, no.") Asd now I sak myself if the thee has come when surrounding brio= shall do what we ought to do now—aersow ledge the South as an independent nation. (Cheers.) and cries of "Never," and "Slavery.") lam about to come to the question of slavery. The Northern States of America bate slavery ; bat there is one thing they bate still more, and that is the slave. They have decreed in their public documents their determination sot merely to conquer the South but to root out the slave. President Lincoln baa very peculiar notions about slavery. He turd • proclama tion declaring all the slaves free in those seceded States, and he maintained slavery wherever his power extended. I say, can Eagland, by allowing this horrible war to go on, sea she, as she has done—being thoroughly . neutral between the two—can she, if she can prevent it, in her own con. riser allow these horrible atrocities to continue! Oh, I am met with the cry—l have heard it here—" Slavery." But what is slavery in the South as compared with the black man's condition in the North? No man looks upon slavery with greater horror than I do, and if I could befit the slaves—if I could do anything for their condition by at once making them a free a people—l should he prepared, en far as my humble power goes, to confer liberty upon them. (Hear, hear.) Bat we did that amongst a smaller body of Neck people in the West Indies. We paid for them, and, r Briar has always behaved in such eases, we dealt libe rally. not only by the slave, ,but by the slaveholder. (Hear, her) Can you do that in America ? You tarot. The Wilkes of slaves in America wadi swallow up all the story in the North and in the South to buy their freedom. But the connexion between the alreholder sad the slave is one not so painful as many ims. gine. They are kindly treated. I know they are not treated as I should like to be treated, because I am • free man. I have been brought up in freedom, 1 have fought for my own livelihood—they have not. They like their condition then, to this extent, that when they be come old they are not called upon to maintain themselves, and the slaveliolder treats them—uefortunately I most use the phrase—as I should treat my horse. (Oh, oh, and Hear, hear.) I never overwork him if lam a wise man. I lament that any human being should ha in that condition, but they are in that condition, and, as statesmen, what are we to do! I fear that for many years to come slavery must exist. You cannot get rid of it on a sadden. Time, patience, and the education of the black man, all mast go bead in hand, and it will be the malt of time, of education, of patience, which will drag them out of the'con &ikon in which they now an. (Hear, beer.) Now, 1 bate slavery aa much as any Dom Were any man to attempt to make me a slave I would fight him. (Loud cheers.) Well, them have things come to the condition that England is called upon to act! She has been throughout entirely sorrel, and what has bees the result! language has been used to her, not merely by the people but by the govern ment of America, Mohr( broad description ; and at last they have Cons to say, when describing themselves, " We are reduced to that coadition that even England can bully in." I want to know how they have been brought into that audition ? *tramway's. (Hear.) I am very much inclined to believe that, the poor working man Lanouhire het su ff ered dreaday from the cotton famine, the masters in Manchester have not suffered to the same extent (Hear, hear.) lean very easily understand that when a man is happy, when be is making money easily, and enjoying all the mita of the earth in consequence of this war-1 say I an understand his objection to anything being done to put an end to it. But while I feel for the worlung men of laamishire, I feel for the sultana's of the people of America, and I want to put an end to this war. I my to Ragland, " II you now stop in and declare boldly what you think to be requisite, namely, that the Southern stases should be at once acknowledged as an independent Patton." (Cheering, mid cries of " No, no," and a voice with peat emphasis, " Never." A working man who was standing near the steps became rather too demonstrative end was ignominiously expelled by the police.) Mr. Roebuck continued—l am told that if we acknowledge the South we shall go to war with the North. I say Ido not believe it. Teen is no body of men who so much desire England's interference in that war as the Northern States themselves. (Hear, hear.) I may state one remarkable thing. We looked upon a war with America with horror, because it would bring about cotton kudos. Well, we have no war with America, but we hays a cotton famine. The most curious thing is this. If we had war with America we should si ere put an end to the cotton famine. Now, that is a very peculiar circumstance. The South would thee be an independent people • we should break the blockade at once—(hear, 116114 — . and we should have coital ia Manchester. IA stentorian voice : "We can't.") But we should. (Cheers. Mr. S. Jackson : "We should have • civil war in England" and Interruption.) By our Premed proceedingsp out only have we alienated the North, bat we shall alienate the South. France will step in as she did is 177 d. She will conciliate the Southern States of America, and we shall lose friends on both rides. ("How do yon know this! We shall do right and they will do wrong.") Whet is the reason why we should not do it! Pint, they my, Ragland ought not to help slavery. I say so too; but we should not help slavery by arsowledging the South. (Hear, hear, and No, no.) We should sot be benefiting slavery by soknowledging the South ; bet we should really benefit the slave. By doing anything to assist the North we may do away with slavery, but at the Name time we should do away with the slave Sympathy is not a part of neutrality. I have no sympathy with the North. I think my sympathies ought to go, as they do go, with the South. Try are • indent people, fighting for their independence, and they have obtained it. The chance of ernes on the part of the North is as a million to OM They never hope to conquer the South ; but I will tell you what they hops far. There are a body Of men he New York who thrive wonderfull y upon the war. They have contracts, they have " ree rake," they have every means of putting their hands into the /Auk puree; they are gorged with wealth; and as loot as this goes on they will wish the war to continue. But if you go into the agricultural districts of North A ar rig, you would fled things very different there. (Hear , rose) There you would see sorrow for th e war . Th m you would find husbands dragged to the war; you would find brothers gone there, killed, eroded, maimed, made miserable for life. They know what the horror of the war ; they have none of the advantages of the contractor in Mew York; they therefore wish to put an end to the war. And there is another class of men in North America which DO hates England that anything that should continue to pp s her rain they would delight in ; ad this arises from gland'S bad conduct. I am speaking of the banished Irish rn America. (Haar, hear.) The ill-conduct of Eog- land has driven thousa nds,, nay millions, from Ireland.. =rat from leaked with their hearts burning against and they have given that folios to their dor mendsets ; and the greater part or the arse that has been rowed upon England km cane from banished Irish men. I don't wander at • great part of the abaft that has her showered upon England, but still all that notwithstanding, notwithstanding that the banished Irish, notwithstanding that the cornet= of New THE EXPRESS, WEDNI SDAY EVENING, MAY 27, 1863. --- York, notwithstanding that the ill-advised Part/ here, are all in favour of continuing the war- 1 • No, and if England can move in such • way este put no end to it, let her do so et once. " All I wish you to say is what you think. Ton must leave the management of the whole matter to parlizeneet. I don't want you to tell them what they are to do. They are in • condition to know much better than we what steps should be taken. I merely wish to tell them our opinion uud leave them to deal with the matter for them ! wive.. I caonot reason out this question as I should desire in the immense area I have to address, but still distinctly I tell you I believe the time is come for sin acknowledgment of the independence of the South. That England, by so doing, wili be carrying out the great mission she bee to advance, and protect mankind ; that if she do ro she will benefit not, only herself but the world at large. Therefore I should advise you to say that in your opinion the Confederate States of America should at once be acknowledged to bean independent nation. (Cheers.) The Rev. J. Y. MOPES moved the following resolution " That in the opinion of this meeting the government of this country would act wisely, both for the interests of England and those of the world, were they immediately to enter into negotiation.s with the great powers of Europe, for the purpose of obtaining the acknowledgment by them of the indenendence of the Confederate States of North America." The motion was seconded b Mr. MICHAEL MEAL. The Rev. J. Corium! (Wesleyan Free Church) moved the following amendment :—" That this meeting records its high admiration of the honourable neutrality hitherto main tained by the government in relation to the dreadful civil war now raging on the American continent, and earnestly hopes that the some policy of nonintervention will be pur sued in future." Mr. W. J. CLEGG seconded the amendment ; but the rests- Intim was carried. Ulu I'Mlitynce. EQUITY COURTS.--MAT 26. (Before the Lords Jostles'. ) n'isTosa O. GMAT' WIESTKR24 . 7I•ILWAT COMPLIIT. This was an appeal by the defendants, the Great Western Railway Company, from au order of the Vico-Chetweallor Stuart, refusing to vary the certificate of his chief clerk recently made in the suit. The object of the snit was to obtain payment for the amount due to the plaintiff under certain contracts entered into by him with the company for the construction of portion, of their line of railway, or for an account. By the decree made on the hearing of the cause in the month of May, 1855, an inquiry wu directed as to whether any and what sum remained due to the plain- ' tiff in respect of the work, executed and material supplied under his contracts with the defendants. The chief clerk allowed in respect of the plaintiff's claim against the company sums amounting together to the sum of 147,5381. The objection of the appellants to the certificate was that it certified a lump sum to be due from them to the plaintiff, without showing with sufficient minuteness the items or particulars of what that sum was composed. Mr. Bacon, Q.C., Mr. Nebo., Q.C., and Mr. T. Stevens in support of the appeal; the Solicitor-General, . s pared in Q.C., and Mr. F. C. J. Miller for the pl Their lordships were of opinion that the appellants were entitled to know with greater distinetcees what were the particulars in question, and directed for that purpose that the order of the Vico- Chancellor and the certificate ofghie chief clerk should be discharged, the costs of all parties to the present appeal, and before the Via-Chancellor, to be leads in the cause. (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir R. T. Kiodiraley.) TEE RAIL OF SHREWSBURY O. THE NORTH STAFFORDSHIRE SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. RAILWAY COMPART. The bill in this case was filed to enforce the rival& per formance of an agreement dated February, 1846, whereby the Churnet Valley Railway Company agreed to give John Earl of Shrewsbury 20,0001. over and above the ordinary compensation for land and severance, this sum being a douceur to him for not opposing the bilL That company failed to obtain its hill, and the South Staffordshire Railway was formed, which took upon itself the liabilities and rights of the Churnet Valley Company, and when the South Staf fordshire Company's bill was before parliament, a sup plemental agreement dated January, 1848, was en tered into, whereby the company agreed to pay 20,0001. for the benefit of the ear l and his encoessors to the estates settled on the earldom. The 20,0001. has been paid nor the interest. After the death of Earl John a suit was instituted by his successor, Earl Bertram Arthur, by his next friend, but Earl Bertram dying in 1856 before the canoe came on fora hearing the came abated. The present suit was instituted by the present earl, and it now came on on demurrer, the demurrer being to that part of the prayer of the bill which prayed that the bill might if thought proper and necessary be regarded as a supplemental bill to that filed by Earl Bertram. The Solicitor-General, Mr. Glasse, and Mr. Bovill ad. dressed the court in support of tho demurrer. The rice-Chancellor, without calling on Mr. Bally and Mr. Wickens, who appeared for the plaintiffs, said he was of opinion the demurrer must be overruled. When Earl Bertram died the plaintiff succeeded to the tide and estate, and whatever right, if any, Earl Bertram bad to relief in his suit, the present earl, subject to the question of the statute of limitations, was entitled to. It we. impossible to conceive a more inconvenient mode of raising the ques tion than by demurrer, and he was of opinion the demurrer must be overruled, but without prejudice to any question that might arise in the case. TATTERSALL'S. -TUBSDAY. Settling on the grand events at Epsom was resumed to- I day with an alacrity which told that, is the language of foreign stock exchange telegrams, mosey was abundant. The amount of money which changed heads was enormous, and when we state that one well-kuown " commissioner " dealt with the enormous sum of 200,000/., some idea may be formed of the importance ate Derby and Oaks settling. Yet notwithstanding the heavy nature of the transactions there was not a complaint u to tardiness on the part of any one, and in further proof of the punctuality with which racing men meet their engagements, there was not a single absentee who was not represented by his own special agent.

Mr. Berjeant Shea said this was an action for alleged negligence against an attorney, tried before Mr. J ustice Wigtitman, at Guildhall. when the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 100/. He moved for a rule to show muse why a nonsuit should not be entered, or a new trial bed, pursuant to leave reserved. The action was for negligence against an attorney, after having obtained a ver dict for 1001. damages in an action for breach of promise of marriage brought by the female plaintiff before her marriage with the plaintiff, against a person named Xarkea, in not entering up judgment and issuing elocution. Rule greeted. HAM 0. TRI LONDON AND NORTH WEBTXRN RAILWAY COMPAZT. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, residing in London, who late out dresses, ko., for prooes dons, to recover compensation for damage sustained through the delay in the delivery of certain dresses, banners, he., required for a Foresters' procession at Seaham on the 10th August last. They were forwarded on that night, but did not reach Sedum until four days after the procession was over. To reach Seabam they had to be forwardediroar Newcastle or Sunderland by carrier, and bad they been sent to the latter place instead of the former they would have reached Sedum in time. The company contended that as the goods were forwarded in the usual and ordinary course, the plaintiff having neglected to state they were wanted by • particular day, they were not liable. The case was tried at Guildhall before tho Lord Chief Justice, when the jury returned • verdict for the plaintiff—damages, 25/. Sub's queatly Mr. Bovill obtained • rule for a new trial, on the ground that the verdict was against evidence. Mr. Pearce 'bowed cease against the rule, contending that the goods ought to have been sent to Sunderland instead of round by Newcastle. The plaintiff not only lost his prods on the one transaction at &sham on the 10th of August, but other engsgemeote also. Mr. Bovill, Q.C., with whom was Mr. C. Pollock, said the jury found 5/. for the first loss and 201. for the special lose, for which it was contended the company were not liable. If the obligation on the company was only to carry in their usual and accustomed course, and it was the duty of the person sending to inquire when the goods would arrive, then the company were entitled to the verdict ; but If they werebound to tell the sender when the goods would arrive, thin the company were liable. At all events they were not liable for the special damages. The Lord Chief Justice said that by one route the delay arose—the carrier leaving for &ahem every other day. In the other case there was • daily carrier, and the jury con. sidered it was bat reasonable to expect that the goods @horrid be forwarded with reasonable despatch. London tradesmen could not be expected to know the movements of carriers in connexion with railways. Mr. Justice Wightman said • tradesman could hardly dream that hit goods would le delayed so long in treed% ander the usual and customary course adopted by railways. —The Court said there was unreasonable delay here, and the plaintiff was entitled to something.

The defendant threatened to lock the boy up for stealing the wood, and thereupon his father said be had enty of money to pay, and throwing some gold up ua the table told the defendant to take the price of the wood out of it.

KING.—THI SOUTHAMPTON =ACTION LIBE4 It will be remembered that the plaintiff io this case, Mr. George Thompson, me of the candidates at the late election for Southampton, toed the proprietor of the Hampshire Advertiser—to recover damages for two libels published in that paper. The thing principally complained of was that it was imputed to Mr. Thompson that be had in the course of the election become the "hind advocate" of Oaptaio Mangles, another caodidate. The jury found for the plaintiff, damages 1501. Mr. Serjeant Shee now moved to arrest the judgment or for • new trial, upon the ground that the verdict was against the evidence. The inuendo in the declaration im puted that by the epithet " hired advocate" it was meant that the plaintiff had unworthily, whilst himself • candi date, received money as the hired advocate of another candidate ; but the learned counsel submitted that the evi dence did not at all rapport the inuendo. When the libels were written it was known that Captain Mangles bad paid 100 pilaw in consideration of Mr. Thompson retiring, and that Mr. Thompson had afterwards addressed two meetings in favour of Captain Mangles. It was not meant that Mr. Thompson had, whilst a candidate, become the " hired advocate" of Captain Mangles, but that it was part of the consideration for the 100 guineas paid on his retirement, that he should address the meeting in favour of Captain Mangles. In doing this he would be peaking in favour of those principles which it had been the business of his life to promote, for both gentlemen were of the seine political opinions. It wt. submitted that it was not libellous to my, in this sense, that a man was a "hired advocate," for it was no disgrace for a man to be paid to ad vocate what be believed to be good and true. Barristers were all " hired advocates," and however much this might diminish the weight of what they said, it was never sug gested that it was disgraceful for them to be paid. Another point upon which the rule was asked was that the damages were excessive, for it was not suggested that the articles had really done the plaintiff any harm whatever. The Lord Chief Justice thought that the meaning imputed in the inuendo was probably that in which the articles were written, and indeed the plea of justification substantially imputed the same meaning. In the coarse of the trial it was apparent that the articles were written in the expecta tion and belief that the 100 OHMS had been paid upon the ' terms that Mr. Thompson should speak in favour of Captain Mangles. Mr. Thompson being a man of considerable poli. Moil mark, having been a candidate, and intending at a future time again to be a candidate for Southampton, it was for the jury to my whether it would lower him to impute to him that he had received a retaining fee to speak for Captain Mangles. Advocates were entitled to be held in honour and estimation, but everything depended upon their conduct being true and rimers. If a man said, " I am retained to support one side," it was clearly not derogatory to him to my that he was a " hired advocate ;" but it might be derogatory to say of a man that whilst professing to be a candidate, and to speak sincerely, be had in fact received a retaining fee for what he said; and the jury thought it was deroga tory. The jury were of opinion that a wrong had been done, and they had thought it right to give 150!. compensa tine. For his part he did not think that that verdict ought to be interfered with. Rule refused. THE POLICE COURTS. THAMES. John Hurley, a notorioes thief, and Elizabeth Brows, his alter, a woman of the town, both well known to the police, were brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged with assaulting and robbing a seaman, named Robert Montgomery. This case was • very saturated one. The prosecutor, who appeared to be suffering from the brutal violence in flicted upon him, was dwelling in the Back-road, St. George's.us-the-Eist. He was on his way home between the hours of 12 and 1 o'clock yesterday morning, when he was suddenly attacked close to the northern end of • vile place called Victoria-street. He was seized by the neck from behind. His throat was oompieseed, and be was nearly choked. He staggered, and was thrown to the ground. There were five or six upon . him. His pockets were rifled, and all his money, COWIIII4/14 of • W. Bank of England note, four sovereigns, and some dyer, taken away. He partially recovered while the people were robbing him, enduing out for the police as well as he could. In answer to Mr. Woolrych, the witness said he was a little gone with liquor—in fact, he bad been drinking • good deal, but he knew all that occurred, and what money he had in his pocket. In answer to the prisoner Hurley, the witness rid— I clan swear to you, I know you. You laid hold of me, and bald me down while my . pockets were rifled. I said to you, " I shall know you again well." William Logan, • sailor, deposed—l was at the top of Victoria-street, and I heard a man screaming out. Hooked round and saw the pronoun on the top of the last witness. The chap there (pointing to Hurley) caught him by the back of the neck and choked him. It was the most brutal thing I ever law. She was rifling his pockets. There were people all around. I saw both prisoners Ilan, the sailor on the ground after they had robbed him of all be bad. John Lyons, who said he was a dock labourer by day and a professional by night, gave similar evidence, and said that Harley spoke to him after the robbery was committed. He was seated on • step bumming a song when the prisoners had the sailor down and were rifling his pockets. He dared not ioterfere as there were always so many thieves, ruffians, and prostitutes about Victoria-street. He was taken into custody. by mistake, and he told the police all he knew. Hurley asked him about the tickets for his benefit, and how he of on after committing the outrage and robbery John . Fry, polioe-000stable No. :r.30 K, was in the Back road and heard a cry of " Police " and "Murder," and a man passed him, who said to a woman, " I have got it," and bolted into • house close by. The utor came up and said, " I have lost aIL" Ile soon afterwards took the prisoners into custody, the man in Victoria-street, and the woman in Palmer's-folly. Both were thieves. I Evidence of former convictions were given. Hurley was eouvicted of coining six years ago and sentenced to four I rare' im penal servitude. There were other ouvictiou against Mr. Woolrych—This is a highway robbery with violence. The prisoners are committed for trial.

STATE OF TRADE.—Meacitearan, MAY 26.—The yarn market has been wry firm today, with a tolerably fair in. quiry, but spinners are generally asking an advance up on last week's prices, and this has materially checked,operar bone.

Some immense toffees foe cloth have been declined to-day upon a difference as to price of ltd. to 3d. per pleo-e, a fact which is calculated to place in a strong light the better position in which manufacturers feel them. salves as compared with that they occupied some months back. Many manufacturers have orders which will keep their mills going foe three months forward, and some as many as five months, whilst soma of the orders offering to- day must have stood over for execution after these were completed.
