Lord STANLEY stated, in reply to Sir T7IOMAS LLOYD, that the palace occupied by Mr. lido Russell, the British agent at Rome, was searched by the Papal police. Mr. Russell was in Florence at the t:u e. and on his return to Rome he de manded an explanation of Cardinal Antonelli, who /dated that the police had received information that gut,,owder had been placed under that and several olter palaces in order to blow them up, and that it W 33 solely with a view to save the lives and property of the occupants that the search was made. Mr. Ru!sell considered that explanation satis factory, sod ho concurred with him in that opinion.

On the motion for the second reading of the Metropolitan Streets Act, 1867, Amendment Bill, Mr. AYRYON objected to the power which the bill gave the police, who would have the right to determine whether costermongers should occupy particular places with their stalls; and he sug gested that tho bill should simply repeal the sixth section of the act, whereby the owners of the pre mutes would have the right restored to them of exposing goods for sale on the space in front of their houses.

The nomination of candidates for the repre sentation of Manchester in parliament took Owe yester day, the proceedings commencing at ten o'clock. There was a very great assemblage of people in front of the hustings, cud mostly of a better class than are usually disposed to " rough it "in the mass. As far back as the Cobden statue, and from side to side of the square (the hustin,o being close under the railin c ;sof St. Ann s church), the crowd was rather dense ; and a considerable number were collected even beyond the statue. At the hustings end of the square the crowd extended right and left into St. Ann's-street. There would be more than 10,000 persons present. The cheering and groaning, as usual, rendered the speaking to • great extent mere dumb show, but the greatest order, cheerfulness, and good temper was main tiMed throughout. The proceedings lasted less than two hours. The candidates are Mr. Jacob Bright, Mr. Alder man Bennett, and Mr. Mitchell Henry. Mr. Bright was first on the hustings, and was accompanied by Sir Elkanah Armitage, Mr. Whitworth, Mr. H. S. Philips, M.P., Mr. T. Ashton, Mr. Ceo. Wilson, Mr. Alderman Mackie, Mr. Thomas Bright, Mr. F. Taylor, Dr. John Watts, Mr. Dunckley, Mr. Fox Turner, M r. W. Morris, and Mr. Barton. Mr. Bennett was accompanied by Mr. Alderman Curtis, Mr. W. K. Callender, jun., Mr. Harrington ' and a few other infiuential friends. Mr. Henry was escorted by Mr. H. B. Jackson, Mr. W. H. Callender, sen., and others of his committee. The assemblage on the hustings was I not great, and there appeared to be less of personal hos tility and bitterness among the leading friends of the candidates than is usual. They mingled freely, and chatted on the probable results at the poll, not a few of Mr. Bright's opponents expressing an opinion that he would have the majority of votes. Mr. Bright's friends say he has 9,500 pledges, and Mr. Bennett's friends say he I has 7,000. Mr. Henry's friends say they have not oom pleted their canvass. It is quite evident, therefore, if Mr. Bright is not returned, his defeat will come with as great surprise upon his opponents as his friends. Mr. lima, the mayor, opened the proceedings, and hoped a fair and candid hearing would be given to all the candidates and their friends. Sir EL.KANAH ARMITAGE proposed Mr. Jacob Bright, a. a man of sound and practical views on politics. Mr. THOMAS ASHTON seconded the nomination, observ ing that the last time the liberal party appeared on the hustings they were disunited and dispirited, whilst on the present occasion, thanks to the judgment and moderation of the various sections of it, they were united and full of vigour and confidence. (Cheers.) Mr. ALI/ERMAN CURTIS nominated Mr. Alderman Bennett, AA a friend of retrenchment and economy, denying that he was a conservative, though he was a high church men. THE EXPRESS. TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 26, 1867 public inr, , roi ement must cease. (Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, of Mr. Alderman Bennett I will only say this. I waited long for him, and I have waited long for him to-day. (Hear and laughter.) If his proposer and seconder require such an unconscionable extent of time to make you acquainted with his political principles—(A Voice "He has none.")—l say that is not the man for Manchester. (Cheers.) Manchester, one of the most in fluential and most important constituencies in England, must send forth to the world no uncertain sound. (Hear.) If Mr. Alderman Bennett did not know his electoral prin ciples until to-day he is not the man for you. I waited for him, gentlemen, because I believed that he was the exponent of the great liberal party of Manchester, as opposed to that section which nominates Mr. Bright, as they did before. But, gentlemen, I would never have waited one moment it I had known then what I know now. Now, indeed, Mr. Alderman Bennett has declared himself not merely as the opponent of John Bright, but as the oppo nent of Mr. Gladstone. (Hear.) Gentlemen, I rejoice to think that when you return me to the House of C minions, se I believe you will to-morrow—tcheere)—l shall be in no doubt where I am to take my seat. My seat is to be behind that great and good man, and that eminent states man, because by sitting there I shall help forward liberal principles and laws. (Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, I ask your support as practical Manchester men, who are determined that theorising shall cease, and that we shall now turn our attention towards those reforms in the administration, fiscal and otherwise, of this country, which it is essential should be attended to now that the reform question has received so unexpected and so satisfactory • solution. (Hear, hear.) I will not quarrel with those who have opposed the Reform Bill which has given to England household suffrage and the lodger franchise. I rejoice that, at the next election, I shall appeal to the votes of that portion of the constituency of Manchester who have hitherto been excluded from the franchise. (Cheers.) But I ask you, was there one bill that was proposed by the party opposite, or was there one bill that has ever been proposed by the party there—lcheers and jeers)—that was expected to give us such a result as we have now obtained! Gentle. men. I will not quarrel with the means by which that re mit was obtained: but I say that it is • principle with Englishmen to accept a result, and try to make the best of it. (Hear.) Is it not childish, gentlemen, after our ten or twelve years of agitation, to be told that reform is as yet only a myth! No, gentlemen, we don't in England con demn a man first and try him afterwards, and we will not condemn this bill until we have tried it. (Hear.) Return me, gentlemen, to the House of Commons as the exponent of your principles, and you will declare in the face of the world that you are determined that your representatives shall be representatives in reality and not delegates. (Hear.) Gentlemen, the system which has been inaugurated by the party to whom, indeed, I would acknowledge the obligations under which we are, has culminated in this, that every candidate for a constituency in England now is required to pledge himself not merely to the great prin ciples which divide one party from another, but to give pledges on minute and debated questions under the fear and with the threat of losing the votes of organised con stituencies. Gentlemen, I would never sit in the House of Commons upon such • basis as this. Igo to the House of Commons, if Igo st all, not only as your representative and the exponent of the principles of the liberal party of Manchester, but also as a legislator who has to legislate for the good of the people of England. (Cheers.) Con vines my conscience and convince my intellect that any measure that is proposed by any party is good, and it shall have my support. (Hear.) But, geutlemen, I will never degrade the representation of this city by condescend ing to sit as the nominee, not merely of one political association but also of • particular Sunday public-house Closing AsSociation, and Permissive Bill Association, and of fifty other things. Gentlemen, it reminds me of what we see in Italy. When you go to Naples you will see there one of the laszaroni, or peasants, sitting down to a huge dish of tuaocaroni, and you wonder how he is to get through it. But very soon he takes it up in his fingers, turns the long strips upside down, and swallows them all. That is what a representative is now called upon to do in Man chester. When first lie comes forward he is presented with • greet bowl, the very look of which is repugnant to him ; but there are many candidates who, it appears, find no difficulty in taking up the pledges and swallowing them one by one. These, gentlemen, are the great principles upon which I appeal to you ; for, however great a principle may be that is advocated by numerous associations, I nay that that system of requiring your candidate to go tied hand and foot to the House of Commons, fettered by pledges extracted by this man and by that, by this association and by that strikes at the very root of elec toral freedom in this country. (Hear. hear.) Gentlemen, again I am oppposed to my honourable opponent in the far off booth on the great question of the ballot. I prefer to see his adherents and the adherents of the worthy alder man, and I prefer to sea my great body of adherents, scat tered all over this great assembly, tell me in the face of day who they will vote for, and what principles they will support. And this, gentlemen, is indeed at the root of the difference between me and the extreme radical section. I contend that the franchise in this country is a trust, and always ha been • trust ; and if it is a trust it ought to be exercised se English trusts are, openly, in the face of day. (Hear.) That sworriation, however, and that knot of politicians tell you that the franchise is a right inherent in the indieiduel. No, gentlemen, you are not her, to support me or any other candidate, or to record your vote to-morrow, because it is • personal right for you to do as you like with your own ; but because the vote you give is • trust entrusted to you by your country for the general good. Therefore, gentlemen. I say to you, whoever you vote for, proclaim to your neighbours right and left who have no votes for whom it is that you are prepared to pledge. Let your prin ciples be known ; for recollect you represent those who have nobody else to represent them. (Hear.) Gentle men, for my part, I wish, indeed, that we could cease with this theoretical system of political discussion, and that we could turn our attention to the great questions that have so long been waiting—to the question of popular education and of a higher education also. (Hear.) Gentlemen, those who have hitherto ob structed the progress of • national system of education have, as much as any other party, been attached to the radicals. It is because that association has been unwilling to recognise the necessity of • national system, and has declared that it will always oppose anything but • volun tary system, that education he made so little progress. At this time, gentlemen, in England, one-fourth of our fellow-subjects can neither read nor write • endow-third of the women of England can neither ;mad nor write ; and itis the presence of these astounding feats that has at last brought Mr. Babies and Mr. Miall to declare that they have been mistaken, and that they will now drop their peculiar crotchets, and will assist that which will unquestionably be carried in the next par liament—a great system of national education. (Cheers.) Then again, gentlemen, I do sot fear that great addition to the electoral body with which we are threatened on the one side, or which we are told will not know how to vote on the other. Ido not advocate education because lam afraid—as We been said by one, I was about to say insult ing month—l do not advocate education because I want to educate " our masters." I say that the people of England are worthy of the franchise that has been conferred upon them, and that the first proof they will give of their worthiness is by their insisting upon a practical system of education being carried. Gentlemen, I will not de tain you any longer, for I well know that my voice reaches only • small portion of this great crowd; but I believe the principles that I profess will meet the views of the electors of Manchester, and that to-morrow you will place me triumphantly at the head of the poll. We appeal to ' you to help the candidate who comes forward basing his claims oily on his principles. Show that your votes are your own, that you will exercise them for the good of your fellow-townsmen and all your countrymen, and that you will not go to this booth or that because you are called to record your votes in favour of one political association or another. Give your votes according to your consciences, and if you are pleased to return ins to the House of Com. mons, at any rate you will return one who is bent, in his mind and in hie heart, to give you good and faithful ser vices ; and when you have tried him, condemn hint if you are not satisfied. (Cheers.) The MAYOR first called for a show of hands for Mr. Jacob Bright. About half the people in the square held up their bands, those to the right being very closely packed, the show extending beyond Cobden's monument. A show was next called for Mr. Bennett, which extended for a considerable distance on the left side of the square, with a slight sprinkling on the right. On the show being called for Mr. Henry, a mall section of the crowd to the left, probably 1,500, held up their hands. The Mayor then declared the show to be in favour of Mr. Bright. A poll was demanded on behalf of Menem Henry and Ben nett, which the Mayor declared would open to-morrow, at eight o'clock, and c lose at four o'clock. A vote of thank& to the Mayor closed the proceedings. Mr. J.tmr.s DORBINGION seconded the nomination. Mr. H. B. JACKSON proposed Mr. Mitchell Henry, who, he sail, belonged from choice and conviction to the great liberal party, whose measures had given them trade and employment, and who were the supporters of civil and religions liberty. Mr. W. R. CALLYNDZA, men., seconded the nomination as an old reformer, who voted at the first election for Mr. Mark Philips and Mr. Poulett Thomson. There being no other candidates, Mr. JACOB BRIGHT came forward amidst great cheering, and in the course of his address said—l am in favour of a real representation of the people. To accomplish this we must have, first, the ballot, in order that dependent men shall no longer be cruelly coerced in their constitu tional rights, and in order that all men throughout the United Kingdom may be able to vote according to their consciences ; and we must have, secondly, such a redistri bution of seats as will take away the monopoly of political power from rotten boroughs and small communities--(hear, hear)—end as will give to largo constituencies like this their fair share in the legislative power of the country. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) With a real representation we should have an impartial House of Commons, and a parlia ment so powerful that it could deal justly with every question, however important, that was ever brought before it. When we shall once have accomplished our object in establishing a real representation we shall approach all those great questions of practical legislation which the advanced party to which I belong has as deep an interest in as any party in this country. (" Hear," and cheers.) We should aim at having such an educational system that every man in Great Britain end Ireland should become an educated man, and we should never rest satis fied until our universities are free from those tests and restrictions which make them sectarian universities. (Cheers.) Our desire is that they should be national — (hear, hear)—that all their emoluments and all their honours should be open to • man simply because he is a British subject. (" Hear, hear," and cheers.) With an impartial and powerful parliament we would fearlessly approach the great Irish problem. We would, as I said in my address, deal with her church ; we would equalise her educational institutions ; and we would give security to every man who endeavoured to earn an honest living by tilling the soil of his native country. (Hear, hear.) Since I last stood in this place • statue of Mr. Cobden—(loud and prolonged cheering)—has been erected in the middle of this great square. lam happy to know that for generations to come, so long as the hustings shall be placed here, no candidate can ask for the suffrages of Manchester without being reminded of the life of that illustrious man ; and supported as I now am by my friends, and looking in the face of this vast audience—(interrup. tion)—l say that I derive strength at this moment from the consciousness that I have advocated no opinion during this contest which was nut advocated by Mi. Cobden when alive, and which would not have found in him an able champion now had his life been longer preserved. (Cheers.) In conclusion, let me say that during this contest I have not, so far as I know, departed one hair's breadth from the line of fair discussion. (Hear, hear.) And when my opponents, in their antagonism to me and the principles which I represent, have impiously invaded the domain of conscience and of private life, in the interest of all that is ennobling in the career of public men, and in the interest of this groat constituency which I hold in honour, that conduct has met with the reprobation it deserves at my hands and at the handa of my friends. (Cheers.) I have met with enthusiastic support in every public meeting which I have addressed ; and I have an unwavering confidence that I shall receive the same enthusiastic support to-morrow at the poll. (Loud cheers.) Mr. Alderman BsNwerr said— I was elected for the city council three times, and have been elected twice as alder man. I have been actively engaged in commercial put. suite the whole of my life, and twelve years ago, seeing the importance of taking part in the commercial ques tions connected with this city, I became a member of the Chamber of Commerce. With many of the charitable associations of the city I em connected. I have the honour of a seat at the Infirmary board. I have been also con nected with the great question of education, and for more than three years I have been president of the Education Aid Society. Ido not mention these things in any boastful spirit, but to show you that having time and leisure on my hands, I have done what I could for the citizens of this great city, and I am proud to know that the Educa tion Aid Society is so far able to make an impression upon the people of this county, and upon the government of this country, that for the first time education is mentioned in a Queen's speech. The Chancellor of the Exchequer, the other night, in the House of Commons, told the House of Com mons that the mention of the question of education there is not a mere rhetorical phrase. So that there'll, no ques tion about it, but within a very short time we shall see a measure of education proposed by her Majesty's government, and her Majesty's government proposing that question will, undoubtedly, in the present state of parties in the House of Commons, succeed in carrying it. Now, gentle men, I have frequently told you during the course of my canvass, that I am a moderate party man. I em not a democrat ; and if returned to parliament as your representative, I shall give support to such moderate measures as I feel sure will be introduced there during the coming session. I will give no factious vote to turn out the government of Lord Derby. It may not be altogether such a government's I could wish to sae—the commercial element resynot be represented in it as I would like to see it ; but taking it all in all, it is the only possible govern ment at the present time in this country. The Russell section of the great disunited liberal party, and the Glad stone mention of the great disunited liberal party, are now come to almost open rupture, and there is no chance of their working together in the present session. I have been taunted with being a high churchman. lam proud of the charge. Ido not understand why my hon ourable opponent, Mr. Jacob Bright, refuses to tell you to what section of the religious world he belongs. Of course I do not find any fault with Mr. Jacob Bright for declining to declare his religious opinions. It is a matter between himself and his conscience ; but I submit it is also a matter between Mr. Jacob Bright and the electors of this great city. If Mr. Jacob Bright be what I have heard he is —(cheers and grosnid—then I cannot understand how any portion of the religious community of this groat city, whether churchmen, or independents, or Wesleyan", or Roman catholic', can support Mr. Jacob Bright. I have not one word to say against him. As I say, it is not for me to inquire into ; tt is a question for the electors. Churchman as I am, I have always been a friend of civil and religious liberty. And while anxious, of course, to see the church of England the church of the people, and the church of all the people, I would allow any denomination of Christians to worship in their own way according to the dictates of their own conscience. Fellow citizens, you Lave known me in the past ; ;on know what I have done during the last 16 or 18 years smoe I became a public man. Such as I have been in tho past, I hope to be for the future. I have no doubt that by four o'clock to-morrow afternoon you will have placed me at the head of the poll —l,licers) sent Mr. Bright back to Rochdale, and re mitted Mr. Henry to London. (Cheers and groans.) Mr. HTNRY said—l will not speak with disrespect of either of the other two honourable candidates. There is no reason that I should depreciate them in order to re commend myself. (Hear.) I have nothing to say against Mr. Jacob Bright and that knot of politicians who support him upon this, se they did on • former occasion. The only complaint I make of them is—and the electors of Manchester will to-morrow declare the same—that that knot of politicians is deficient in political wisdom. (Cheers and Erma.) Gentlemen, in this practical country it is essential that legislation should be practical. (Hear, hear.) We know that if every men and every emacia tion of individuals is determined to carry its own points and its own projects, that legislation and SOUTH LEICESTERSHIRE. The nomination at the election occaidoned for this division by the death of Mr. C. W. Puke, took place yesterday morning at Leicester, on hustings erected in front of the Castle. The High Sheriff (Mr. C. F. D.‘w sow), presided as returning officer. There was a large crowd, but the proceedings were upon the whole con ducted with good humour. Sir A. HAMA:MCC nominated Mr. A. Pell (conservative). Mr. I.EBLINA seconded the nomination. Mr. C. H. BIIACZBBIDGE nominated Mr. T. T. Paget (liberal). Mr. J. D. HAssle, M.P., seconded the nomination. Mr. PELL, who spoke amid considerable interruption, said, perhaps he should surprise some when he said that his principles were liberal, for he could not allow the word " liberality " to be handled solely on the other side. He did not consider that the uprooting and the down-pulling of our old institutions necessarily stamped a man as a liberal. True liberality was the defending ourselves and our neighbour' from outward attack, maintaining and supporting that which was good in our institutions, ad mitting only that which was beneficial, and repelling that which was bad. At the same time, he did not wish it to be thought for a moment that be was not deeply and dis tinctly impressed with the feeling that change must come ; but there was a great difference between allow ing an old tree to develop itself and pulling it down, nn..l patting some miserable substitute in its place. It had been said ant he was the nomi one of the tory party, but he bad given no pledgee, and he was thoroughly and entirely independent, although he should ranze hi.uself with the conservative rather than with the liberals. His political view' were the result of conviction ; he had thought them out for himself, and they had not been impressed upon him by any external in fluence. In fact, he " paddled his own canoe." (Laugh ter and cheers.) It was • very small canoe, but such as it was he paddled it on the broad, bright, and cheerful waters of conservatism ; and he had no fear that he should split upon any rock. There were one or two points upon which he felt bound to touch ; and, first of all, he wanted to refer to the unhappy condition of our sister country, Ireland. He knew something of that courtry (although probably his opponent knew still more) ; and he believed, with regard to Ireland, that there were some faults on both aides. If he were returned to parliament he believed he should be able to take part with some effect in our deliberations and discussions with regard to Ireland, because • great deal of the dissatisfaction which prevailed in Ireland arose upon questions partly connected with the holding of property and the occupation of farms. He believed it was too much the practice in Ireland to allow small tenants to invest their money in improvements, and then to oust them from homes to which they considered that they had acquired a certain right through having built them themselves. He did not wish to speak positively upon these matters, but if he were returned to parliament he should go there with no old tory prejudicea—(laughter) —but prepared to give his best attention to all questions connected with Ireland. The present ministry bad shown its good intentions by appointing • commission to in quire into the condition of the Irish church. He trusted that some good might result from • redistribution of the funds of that church, but not from their appropriation to other purposes than those for which they were originally intended. With regard to the education of the people, he was not one of those wbo believed in the necessity of what Lord John Manners called the other day an educational coup d'etat, for he thought that the great mass of the people were so impressed with the necessity of their children being educated that they were anxiously striving to promote any scheme which promised to secure the desired object. This, however, was one of the matters which the government had in hand. They had also taken up the question of factory acts extension—that was the extension of those principles under which the factory acts were framed to every class of manufactures. He hoped they would extend the same principles of legislation to agriculture. He had been asked about church rates, and a gentleman on the other side had maids church rate should be treated intellectually. For his part he had never seen a rate treated intellectually ; it must either be paid if it were a good one or abolished if it were • bad one, for you could no more treat • rate intellectually than you could treat a leg of pork intellectually. (Laughter.) Ile would confine • church rate which might be made by • majority of the ratepayers to expenses connected with the fabric alone ; and the rate, when made, should be submitted to the Poor-law &editor, to be passed or rejected, so that no items but those relating to the fabric of • church were inserted in it. With regard to the mime laws, if it could be shown that there wu anything in them which inter- fered with the rights of the people or the enjoyment of property, he and those who supported him would be the last to resist any change ; but they were not going to yield to any foolish cry which might be raised. He ho pe d that the question might be settled upon • generally satisfactory basis. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Psorr nest stood forward, and after paying a tri bute to the memory of the late Mr. Pack., said the other day at Market Bosworth, his friend Lord Curzon put the issue now pending in South Leicestershire upon its right footing, when he said that the contest lay between Mr. Disraeli and Mr. Gladstone, and that he (Lord Curzon) preferred Disraeli with all his faults, to Gladstone with all his virtues. His (Mr. Paget's) opinion was, however, just the contrary, for he preferred Glad. Kona with all his virtues, to Disraeli, with all his faults. (Cheers.) The issue of the present contest was much more an affair of the electors than of his (Mr. Paget's). He was perfectly indifferent to it— (cries of Oh, oh," and laughter)—but be was not indifferent to the 'prate' and promulgation of those great principles of progress of which he appeared as the humble advocate. If he were sent to parliament, however, his vote should be given to attain this object, that the country in which there existed a liberal majority should be governed by a liberal administration. He had the greatest respect for the honest old tory party of England, but be had no respect whatever for those tricksters and jugglers who brought out a Reform Bill which kept the word of promise to the ear but broke it to the hope —(hear, hssi)—and be bad no respect for that great poli- Seal tutor who educated his party in such a singular manner. (Laughter.) He (Mr. Paget) believed that the wrongs and miseries of Ireland must in some way or other be removed before England could be at peace. He was not one of those who connected Fenianism with Ireland, but who could turn hie eyes to the sad and solemn tragedy which had been enacted at Manchester without feeling an absolute conviction that no government or legislature could longer delay with safety legislation on the subject of Ireland, which laboured under two great evils-- first, the established church in Ireland, and secondly, the unsatisfactory tenure of land. The tenure of land ques tion suggested to his mind the many cases of landlord dictation which he bad met with during the present election. (Cries of " Shame.") He also held it to be a great injus tice that after a farm bad been let to a tenant, it should be stocked with ame for the landlord to shoot and send to market. In England we had no adequate trespass law, and to a certain extent he believed a game law to be necessary, but he was decidedly opposed to Lord Berners' act for employing the police to assist in the preservation of game. He (Mr. Paget) was an advocate for an education rate, although he was not prepared to say that education should be compulsory. He was in favour of an education rate, because education bad become more than ever necessary, after Mr. Disraeli's tremendous bill. As Mr. Lowe said the other day, with perhaps more sarcasm than civility, we had made the people our masters, and now we must educate them. The schools under the influence of the clergy, whether episoo palian or dissenting, did good as far as they went, but we must have something more—a national system of education. As regards church rates. if he were returned he should vote for their entire and unconditional abolition. (Cheers.) The Blots SHIRITI , took a show of hands, which was largely in favour of Mr. Paget. Colonel HALFORD demanded a poll for Mr. Pell, which was fixed to take place on Thursday. A vote of thanks to the High Sheriff closed the pro ceedings. A meeting of the inhabitants of Chelsea wan held at the Vestry-hall, King's-road, yesterday evening, for the purpose of hearing the political views of Mr. Charles Wentworth Mike. Upon the motion of Mr. Livingston, chairman of the vestry, seconded by Mr. T. Watkins, the chair wu taken by Mr. W. Raserrrs. In introducing Mr. Mike to the meeting the chairman stated that he con sented to preside at this meeting as an entirely unpledged man. He wee desirous that any gentleman who offered himself to the constituency should have a full, fair, and impartial opportunity of giving expression to bis poli tical views. He was satisfied that W. Wentworth Mks was prepared in this sense to address the meeting. Mr. DILICE, after some brief remarks which had re ference to the local character of his candidature, proceeded to state his opinions, which are those of the advanced liberal school. After referring to the distinction which had been drawn between means and ends, Mr. Dilke said that, in spite of the general wish for cessation of agitation in favour of steady progress in law-making and law amendment, there were some alterations in the Reform Act of last session that were of the most pressing gravity. Abolition of the ratepaying clauses and a wider scheme of redistribution were among these necessary changes. The speaker had seen enough of the admirable working of the ballot in Australia to be convinced that nothing but good could attend its introduction into this country. He advo cated it as • measure for the protection, not ao much of the timid voter as of the independent voter against having his vote neutralised by that of the corrupt or weak. Coming to the ends for which reform of parliament has been sought, Mr. Dilke said that the first care of the re formed House of Commons should be Ireland. Mr. Mill had struck the keynote when he asked for justice to that country in the matters of church and land. After alluding at some length to the im es of the education ques tion, Mr. Dilke ex himself in favour of the creation of a ministry of ools, with control over the educational funds of the whole country. " Compulaory education " was a vague phrase ; the Factory Acta might be said to have introduced compulsion ; in the widest move, how ever it existed nowhere—certainly not in Massachusetts. Initiatory power to found schools where none existed must be given to the educational department. Mr. Bruce's bill was • step in the right direction. The speaker expressed himself strongly in favour of legal reform and codification of thu laws. He supports the proposed bill for protecting the funds of trades unions, on the wide ground of the edvisability of recog nising associations founded for any purpose not illegal. Finance reform, abolition of the game-laws and of the pre sent justice system, and sale of crown lands, were other questions on which the candidate spoke warmly. He also declared himself in favour of awide sehemeof army reform, including the abolition of flogging and of purchase of com missions, higher pay for the wen, and the direct respon sibility of the commander-in-chief to parliament. After alluding to our foreign relations, the future of India, and the unconstitutional action of the government in the case of Abyssinia, Mr. Dilke concluded his address by touching briefly upon local questions, and pointing out the necessity of the equalisation of the poor-rates throughout all London. After Mr. Dilke had answered the questions that were put to him, a reeolation, declaring Mr. Dilke a proper person to be a candidate for the representation of the borough, was carried unanimously. THE Carms PLAGUE IN SILESIA.—A despatch from the English Consulate at Berlin confirms the report previously received from her Majesty's Consul at Dentric as to the cattle disease having appeared iu certain die tricta of Silesia, on the Austrian frontier. The malady it is staked has broken out in a more malignant form than has hitherto been the case in Prussia, the districts of Oppein and Ratisbon being the moat infected. The commissioners of customs at the English ports have wider these circumstances been instructed to call the attention of their officers at the various ports wherecattle are landed to the outbreak, and to direct that a most careful exami nation shall be made of all animals which have come direct from Prussia, or which there is reason to suppose hare been in the Prussian dominions. NAM fatelltsente. EQUITY COURTS.—Nov. 25. (Wore the Lord Chancellor.) atm r. 11713/XAtIONAL WtZ (LIMITID). "[The Lord Chancellor gave judgment to-day in this appeal by the defendants from the decision of Vice- Chancellor Wood. The suit was Instituted to have it declared that the plaintiff was entitled to have the certi ficate and be registered as the holder of 54 shares in the International Bank, in lieu of a similar number of shares in the London and Colonial Bank. It appeared that the cue of Mr. files rested on an amalgamation between the International (formerly the British and American Ex change Bank) and the Colonial Bank, part of the arrangement of which was that the holders of shares in the latter should, on payment of certain calls, be entitled to surrender their skates and obtain in lien of them shares in the International Bank. As a re sult of the arrangements for amalgamation, the share- holders of the Colonial Bank had been informed that they would be entitled to exchange their shares for shares in the other, and the right being considered certain, a prac tice grew uof buying for purchasers shares in one or the p other bank indifferently. Mr. flee had ordered his broker to buy shares in the International Bank, but it seemed they were bought in the Colonial. The plaintiff not being satisfied, his agent had an interview with Mr. Gray, the manager of the International Bank, and inquired whether, if the plaintiff paid the calls on the 50 Colonial shares which he then had, he would be fur nished with certificates of shares in the former bank, adding that he would not pay the calla unless he was assured of this. It was alleged that Mr. Gray rep li ed by the authority of the directors that if the cal l. were paid, the shares would be exchanged. After a careful exami nation of all the circumstances, his lordship affirmed the decree of the Fice-Chancellor. For all substantial pur poses the two banks were identical; the separate existence of the London and Colonial Bank being merely preserved in order that if necessary claims against its shareholders might be enforced. The assurance given by Mr. Gray was a direct statement by the authority of the directors, and the plaintiff having paid the calls in pursuance of that statement, they could not now alter the position which be had assumed by virtue of their assurance, and repudiate his right to hive the shares exchanged. The appeal must be Mamboed with costs. Sir R. Palmer, Mr. Giffard, Mr. Eddie Mr. Bagahawe, and Mr. Robinson appeared for the partirk (Before Sir R. Malin.) PARRIS r. PRICK-A CARNIVAL BALL. Mr. Renshaw moved on behalf of a director of the Liverpool and London and Globe Insurance Company for • special injunction to restrain the holding to-morrow night, in the town of Kingston-upon-Hull, of • carnival ball, or " bal masque." The insurance company are the landlords and the defendant, Mr. Morton Price, is the lessee of the Queen's Theatre, in which the ball la ad vertised to take place, and the application was made in apprehension of danger to the license which was merely for the performance of stage plays. The covenant between the parties specified that the theatre was to be used only for dramatic, equestrian, or other like performances as were not contrary to decency and good morals. The defendant, in answer to a letter from the plaintiffs on the subject of the proposed ball, had stated that he had lent, not let, the building for the purpose, but bad given notice that the ball could not be held, as he understood it was contrary to his agree ment with the landlords. An advertisement, how ever, appeared subsequently in two local papers, signed by the defendant's acting manager, assuring the public that there was no intention to stop the ball, and in con sequence of that announcement the present application was made. The Vice-Chancellor was of opinion that the plaintiff had a strong prima facie case, but that as the advertisement appeared on the 19th inst, his application might have been made in sufficient time to allow the other side to came to the court to dissolve the injunction. During the long vacation a motion came before him to prevent the volunteer ball at lalington and on the same ground, but it was made sufficiently early to enable him to put both sides upon an undertaking which enabled the ball to be held. Aa the magistrates had not interfered In this cue, he must assume that there was supposed to be nothing immoral or objec tionable in the entertainment advertised, and if it were found afterwards that Mr. Prioe•s conduct endangered the license he hed no doubt that the plaidlifFs' application for an injunction would sufficiently protect their interest. The motion must be refused because it was made too late. THE POLICE COURTS. Clara Ball, a very respectable-looking young woman, was charged with accosting gentlemen in the King's-road, Chelsea, for immoral purposes. Police-constable Robert Randall, 57 T, stated that be saw the defendant commit the offence on Saturday night, at about half-past 11, and took her into custody. A woman named Skinner, who was in her company, laid hold of him by the arm and endeavoured to rescue her. In reply to the magistrate, complainant said he had known the defendant in Chelsea for the last seven years as a domestie servant • but during the last fortnight bad seen her about the streets at • late hour with loose women and other improper characters. Mrs. Skinner was a respectable married woman. Defendant declared that the charge was totally un founded, and that she had left her situation—not to walk the streets, but to nurse • sick person. She and Mrs. Skinner went into the Roebuck Tavern to take some re freshment, when they saw Randall drinking with a man and his wife, and she made a remark with re spect to their son, a cripple, to the effect that she did not want to have anything to do with him. Randall then fol lowed them out, and, seizing her, took her into custody, in venting the present charge against her. Randall admitted that he had been drinking in the Roe buck as described, although on duty, and said that defen dant had described herself as a prostitute when at the police-station, in support of which assertion he called Charles Wills, 24 T. Mrs. M. Skinner,ofls,Winterton-plaoe, Park-road,Chels, said that she was with V,' defendant at the Roebuck, and remained with her until she was unjustly taken into cus tody. She then confirmed defendant's aooount of what oc curred at the tavern, and swore most positively that de fendant did not accost any gentleman. When Randall seized defendant witness placed her band upon his arm and asked •by she should be taken, as she had done nothing, upon which he struck her a blow, from the force of which she fell and cut her eye, which bled profusely. Randall said he only pushed her, and she fell. Mr. Selfe said that he was not satisfied, and should dis charge the defendant. The constable had described Mrs. Skinner as a respectable woman, and her evidence was as plain as it could be. Subseinently, on the application of Mrs. Skinner, • sum mons was granted against Randall, for his misconduct to- wards her. SOUTHWARK. Samuel Rowe, _29 a respectable-looking man, described as a merchant's c l er k , residing at 65, Spencer-road, Stoke Newington, was pla ced at the bar before Mr. Burcham, charged with creating a disturbance inside All Saints' Church, Lower-marsh, Lambeth, and committing damage to a font to the extent of 71., the property of the Rev.,' Dr. Lee, the incumbent. Mr. Warner Sleigh appeared to prosecute ; Mr. Collette attended for the defendant. Mr. Sleigh, in opening the proceedings, said that he was instructed to prosecute the defendant for being concerned with others in committing a disgraceful tumult inside All Saints' Church, launbeth, during divine service, casting ridicule upon the ornamentation of the interior of the building, and wilfully breaking the font. During the rock. bration of the Holy Communion on Sunday noon some person who received the bread, instead of eating it, placed it in his pocket. Mr. Colette here intimated to the learned counsel that it was not bread, but a wafer. Mr. Sleigh understood that to be so, but as soon as the person placed it in his pocket a disturbance took place. I That, however, was soon quelled at the altar, but soon' afterwards a number of persons rushed to the other end of the church, and defendant was seen to push the font over and break it, committing damage to the extent of 71. He was instructed to say that when the defendant got outside the church he admitted smashing the font, and gloried in having done so. Ho was therefore given in charge. Two witnesses were then heard, with the view of proving the charge, against the defendant, but Mr. Bureharn after hearing them, remarked that there was a great dis crepancy in their evidence. Mr. Sleigh said that as he wax not in a position to carry the case any further, he must withdraw the charges. Mr. Burcham told him he could hardly take any other course. The defendant must under these edreuxertances be discharged. Mr. Collette asked for the costa of six witnesses, who had at great inconverience attended to give evidence. Mr. Btu-chain told hint he had no power to grant coats in such a case. Mr. Collette observed that if mach was the owe, him client would bring his action for false imprisonment. The parties then left the court, very much excited. John Thompson and Thomas Webb, labourers, were placed in the dock on a charge of killing and slaying George Frederick James, by stabbing bins in the heart with a pocket knife. Frederick Collin, a carpenter, living in Fanny-road, Barnes, said that on Saturday night he went into the Swan public-house, Broadway, Haulmeramitli, with two' friends, the deceased and another man. Witness carried a hare, and the prisoners, who had followed in, asked him whether he caught it. One of his friend. said, "No, he did not, he bought it," Thompson then said, " You don't know how to catch one." Not wishing to have a quarrel with the prisoners, witness and his friends left the public house and walked to the corner of the Bridge-road, where they bad a little chat, and they bade him good bye. He waited to see them pass across the road, when he was sud denly knocked down by the prisoner Webb. Witness got up and wished to reason with him, when he was again knocked down by one of the prisoners. The other prisoner was present, and they both accused him of wishing to pick a quarrel with them. He was knocked down a third time, whop b. became inunsible. He did not see anything dose to the deceased. When he recovered his senses he hard that the deceased bad been taken to the West London Hospital. He went there, and saw that be was dud. In answer to questions the witness said be 'add net say that be was exactly sober, but he knew what ha wu about. The deosassd and the other man were sober. Thompson said the witness and his friends interfered with them. He refused to tight, and they said that they would make him. The witness, in reply to the magistrate, declared that not a word was said about fighting. The prisoner Webb also said that when they left the Swan they saw the three men standing and talking abut fighting. William Dear said be wu with the last witness and the deceased. He was knocked down and rendered insensible. He saw the prisoners come from the Swan, but he did not bear them say anything. The blow came from behind him. He was knocked down and kicked. He was not drunk. Mr. James Henry Melville, a coachmaker, residing in the Bridge-reed, said be was returning home shortly be fore 12 o'clock, when he beard a voice say, " Yon are the one who bit ins, and you are another." He then heard a dull "thud," which sounded more like a kick than a blow. He ran across the road and saw • short man (Webb is • abort man) scrambling up from the witness Collin. The prisoner Thompson was standing by the deceased, who was lying on his back with his orals stretched out. Wit ness walked up to the prsoosr , and rid "You har e seriously injured him by 'eking him on the head." He replied, " No, I hare not." The constable who was pre. sent turned his lantern on the doomed, when witness said, "He is dead." Wham assisted in carrying the deceased to the hospital, where be saw • wound in his breast. Sergeant Byden, 32 T, said be was on duty at the station at helf•past 12 o'clock, when the prisoners were brought in by two constables. A long thin clasp knife was taken from Thompson and handed to witness, who found stains of blood on both sides and at the bank of the blade, and some on the handle. The blood was fresh and damp. Mr. A. W. Read, the house surgeon at the West London Hospital, said the deceased was brought in at 25 minutes past 12 o'clock. He breathed once sod died. Winton bad since made an examination of the body. He found wound above an inch in length over the heart, and about five inches in depth. It extended through the wall of the chest into the cavity of the heart. The wound wee the cause of death. The knife produeed was likely to have wised it. On seeing the wound be remarked it had been done by a knife which had a dell beck to it He found that the knife produced was sharper on one edge than on the other. The witness also stated that t►e deceased had a mark upon his lip, as if be had been struck in the mouth. Mr. Ingham then remanded the prisoners.
