MEETING OF LICENSED VICTUALLF.RB AT HACKNEY. --4.- Last evening a very numerous meeting of the licensed vktuallers of Heaney and its vicinity was held at the Britonsla Tavern, Church-street, Hackney. for the pur pose( expeemhig the opinion of the trade with regard to the sendoet of tl. lMtrwwgAdvertiser and the Protection Society is 'mime M the New Baer Bill passed during the last ales eipmilimeat. The meeting was couvaned by the Defense Ameelation. Ns. Fowilan, the proprietor of the tavern, was nasal wady sena to the chair. In opening the business be slated that the Defuse Society was called into operation in mmallmaim of the beer Bill, which be felt assured had hoes inn ll to sleet mom of those present, and the trade gimeally, cad he thought there were but few who did not wish to an it repealed. Fume, the president of the Defence Association, sewed the Ant resolution :—" That this meeting, feeling that the interests of the trade have been entirely aegis ma the Protection Society, and, through its influence, by the mrginsp Adserfuer, fully rscogMess the necessity for the establishwent of the Defence Association, and determines le Miloort it in the efforts asking to obtain a repeal of the Neer Bill, end to conserve generally the rights and well etiag of the trade." He observed that at this period the war/ration of the trade was most particularly necessary. lithe moiety, professedly established for the protection a Me trade, and the Morning Advertiser, said to be its organ, W Mae their dotty, the Defence Association would art ham bees required. Individually, the Beer Bill did not swiseily effect him, yet he thought it was necessary that Pablie-house should he open at such times as would plushy promote the coavesamme of the public. If that we sot to be so, the mown the Maine Liquor Law was istredeeekthe better. (Hear, beer.) Working men had a zilbt to all reasonable relmetion, and they could not be Made religious by act of parliament ; for despite this legis lation there was plenty of time now for men to get dress if they wished ; but it was decidedly objectionable that Leila bhce interference should thus effect the comforts of the !Nit sod remealeg poeden of the public Thu Defense lag ea ast et perkiness to Mama Ole • attire trade.

With regard to trade meetings, he would Ilt. refer to the bear-garden meeting in Kennington-lane last g Thursday, when all the young members were cried down, 84. and any old eau who differed with the committee were td snuffed oat. Whea somplaiste were made of the conduct et. of the Monsity Adbartiire the oreamitte• got up canvas. et. sing, worked omega the past committee and those who tt. expected oleos, to do as they did last Thursday, and alto at the London Tams. They ought to consider the 212 who had the boldness to some forward at the October court, et. and who npresentod • very large body of the trade whO were sot member. They got up their supporters from itt ldafiliness of feeling towards the charities. At the time the Boor Bill was la rsis the Morning Advertiser ISM sad the Be's oMee were inundated 3 - 4 1,' with Mom negetkikas et withy, but were told to be let =11:1 *en limMftg more important.

Mr. Stinton was niflmingegommil have little interest in the matter. ~ Mr. k ]is almanac, said he could not supply small tom his wholesale establishment M Finch- W 7 lane, bet Mk as ply retail at Hackney. He thought oa km wen est the men who should have taken upon 40 thmesivos ee le is kr the trade. The nooludtm was then put and carried unanimously. a' Mr. TocEnt moved—" That the thanks of the trade an V, duo, and are hereby given, to the Doily New and to the et. weekly press for the energetic support which has been given r to the interests of the licensed victuallers in connexion with the Defence Amoriation, and that it consider the conduit of the managers of the Morning Advertiser to be highly reprehensible, and will, unless altered, be utterly node s/v.l6er the farther support of the non-members of the incorporated society." He should have been glad if the, mold have included their own journal, but in that OM had been only one-sided reports. They bed beam fairly noticed in the Deily New, Bra, sad the Dispatch. The Writing Advertiser had ceased to be the organ of the trade. Its columns were only open to a cer tain clique. It had only given one article on the Beer Bill, and in that stated that it should only speak of it as it affected the public, not as it affected the trade. He could show that the paper was intimately connected with the Protection Society, which never had any right to say it represented this Inds. The report presented last Waders. day contained nothing. With reference to the manage ment of the Meresimg Advertiser, he Ind long thought it defective. It ahielly reprimand a class of seatariene. Sian the meeting at the London Tavern for the Menge of die stalL time had been no improvement. The attack apse Kim Nightingale was highly reprehensible, end he shield eartsbily wish to see the Yawing Advertiver pro " widusat bigotry. (Hear.) To attack • lady like Misanlginiagole, who was ieieg to mach good, was what me ems scald apron. Ha ridefe by alluding to the allotment aced disorderly pussonlings of Thursday last, when it was smieavound to prevent the parties speaking who gosspialsoi of the committee. Mr. Hamm, is smodingomid that the Protection Society could put la the Morning Advertiser what they thought proper. If they had wished they could easily have got up a meeting to option the Beer Bill. The Defence Arm:dation could have thrown out the bill in the House et Lords bat foe the Bishop of London, who, with all his strength, could only cony it by a majority of 7. (Hear, bear.) Yr. Poem. I. @appalls, sbe reselaties, said the Mons ill9 Achwassr wee sae of the meet email' of the trade. On that journal then was net the bonne sr the inclina tion to represent the trait. There wee an objection to give the items of their amosalk and altogether he felt that its prevailing managemeat was not worthy of their confi dence. The great drawback to the iatelleetuality of the paper was Mr. Grant's taking every one upon his (Mr. Grant's) own standard. He fancied himself the only champion of promanticat. Having alluded to the lam , peening of Punch and the assures of the trade, he safli that tha attacks upon Miss Nightingale. Be., were in the most bossily, and disgusting style, that but for its (the Morning Advertuer's) forced ohroulation and touching upon the sharpy badness, it would rapidly decline. He added that the committee, as a body, were well-tkinking men, but he regretted that they rested confidently upon particular mew. Mr. Grant was certainly not worthy the position he hold sad the large salary he received, and it was highly ne ry *omitting should be done to reform the paper and the moiety. (Hear, hear.) If they had no journal of their own, the other paper, would, perhaps, assist, as their patronage would be worth something. He hoped they would pass the resolution ; Hit damaged the charities it was the fault of the !wagers ' and the meeting mast be cruel to be kind to the trade. (Load cheers.) Mr. Foartin (the chairman) said the Protection Society and the Incorporated Society lad failed to conciliate the trade, and the consequence was a diminution is the sale of this paper. He only stood forward to ask the meeting to modify this Insolation. The resolution, as modified at the suggestion of Mr. Fowler, was then put and carried unanimously. After several gentlemen bad enrolled themselves member of the Defense Association, a vote of thanks to the chair nan was luminously adopted, and the proceedings closed SPORTING.

HEALTH OF LONDON. 11 12 In the first week of the year the deaths of 1,404 persons, namely, 671 males and 733 femelee, were registered in the metropolis. In the ten corresponding weeks of the With 1845 64 the average number of deaths was 1,3 1 3. With a correction fur increase of population, necessary for the purpose of comparison, this average becomes 1,444—a result which differs to no great ezttnt from the number of deaths as returned last week. Of the 1,404 deaths, 692 occurred under 20 years of age, 193 at 20 years and under 40, 213 at 40 and under 60, 246 at 60 yea:sued under 80, and 60 were deaths of oetozenarisee.

"AMEN TO THAT SWEET PRAYER."—The Em peror of Russia hopes to be found with the " Sword in his hand, and the emu in his heart." Europe echoes his hope, simply reversing the locality of the two articles.—Punch. The subscription contract for making a railway from Exeter to Exmouth has been published, from which it appears that upwards of 62,5001. has been subscribed for that purpose. THE LATE J. MINTER MORGAN, Esq.—The funera of this well•kaown and philanthropic gersi Innen took place at the parish church, Hun Common, un Wednesday when, in accordance with his expressed wish, the Rev. Joseph Brown officiated. Mr. Murgan's country mansion is in this village, and it is here the National Orphan Home stands, which by his benevolence was founded in 1819, and which now contains above fifty orphan girls, chiefly left by the cholera last year and in 1849, and to which charity, amongst schools of St. Bride's (Fleet-street) and If rrpialley, Bo rough road School, National School, Wertminster, Indigent other generous bequests, he has bequeathed 8001. The Blind School, the parish schools at Ham, Surrey, and the Stationers' Provident Society, are also mentioned in his will. Nor did he forget his favourite root, Brsmford, church in which endeared ppoach h to he him n.. by p r, early t, s a irso h associations, to the organ,as well as money to the reboots. His unosteutatious benevo lence, through a long period of a life of 72 years, is lumen to many who now mourn his loss. Scarcely any effort bto improve the c,nditiov and education of the people escaped hi. notice, though his favourite object was ult. tuppotting villager, in which morality and religion Iwo.° to be the principal object, or, in the words of his favourite text, "Glory to God in the highest, on earth peace, good will towards meta . " IT .. si i is' 87i 111 67 66 i Boeings dodo to-day. sei : 107 i al MONEY MARKET. TriaDLT 'trews. The English funds showed buoyancy this morning, but afterwards became weaker, and, in spite of a great rise at Paris, closed 1 to i per cent. lower than yes. terday. The reaction was partly ascribed to the absence of any confirmation in the Paris Moniteur of yesterday's news from Vienna, bat was also in a great measure influenced by the result of the " option " settlement in Consols. The dealers appear to have provided stock on yes terday's news against their " optional " trans actions, whilst sales preponderated to-day. Pend ing the receipt of further intelligence from Vienna and Sebastopol the market is naturally very sensitive. The fear that the concessions made by Russia are chiefly prompted by a desire to retard the natiTe intervention of Austria, has evidently tended to check the buoyancy of feeling exhibited yesterday. The Paris bourse was reported by telegraph to day as opening with extraordinary buoyancy. The first quotation of the Three per Cent. Rentes was 68.20, and at half•past one o'clock the market had farther advanced to 68.42, showing a rise of about 2 per cent. since yesterday afternoon, and a total ad- ;enc. of 3 per cent. since Saturday. The closing quotations of the bourse did not reach the City this afternoon. At Vienna yesterday the Austrian funds rose 1 to 11 per cent. ; the premium on gold and sil ver fell 1 to 2 per cent.; and the exchange on Lon don fell from 12.23 to 12.13, owing to the relief occa sioned by Prince Gortchakoff's acceptance of the Four Propositions. The rise extends to the other continental markets. At Amsterdam, Austrian stock has risen 2 per Dent., and at Frankfort 1 per cent. Russian securities participate in the upward move meat, having risen about 1 4 per cent. at Amsterdam, Hamburg, and Berlin, three of the chief markets in Europe for these bonds. A report prevailed in the City this afternoon Gist telegraphic despatches to the 4th inst. h.d been re oetved in Greek quarters from the seat of war. The fact that Greek firms bought freely to-day led to an impression that the tenor of the news (supposing such to have been received) is favourable to the cause of the Allies. Consols opened at 92 to 1 for money and to morrow's settling, advanced after several slight fluc- tuations to 921, receded without rally towards 3 o'clock to 911 to 1, and after drooping to 91a to I, stood at the close of the house at 911 exactly. The " contango " for the February account was rather higher, at 3.16 to 5-16. The official business report is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 911, 924, 4,4, 1, 911 ex div.; ditto, for account, 10th January, 911, 921, 4, 92, 924, 911. Three per Cent. Reduced, 911„ /, 921, 911, 92.

Foreign stocks were generally firm, with more business than for some ume past. Russian Four and-a-Half per Cents. experienced a further rise, owing to Greek purchases, of 2 per cent., making a total rise of no less than 4 per cent. since Saturday.
