THE grand old seaman whose mortal part was committed yesterday to monumental repose in the silent company of England's worthies, sleeps well, after the long fever of his troubled days, in that majestic temple of national atonements. If the ancient Abbey were not holy ground to worship pers, the glorious dead who lie side by side below would consecrate the pavement for ever to the feet of pilgrims, for whom the memory of men who make a nation great and free is not the vapour of a morning. In that solemn resting place, where the orators of rival factions, and the statesmen of hostile parties meet to gether in the supreme reconciliation, the voiceless eloquence of Death addresses to the living a severe yet not unconsoling admonition. Factious contumely, the jealous pride of place, the supple and successful creatures of interest, the favourites of intrigue, breathe uneasily this atmosphere of mortality, into which the fumes of party spirit cannot penetrate. But to the wounded, and the suffering from injustice or neglect, what a consolations the mute testimony of the unforgotten dead that there are distinctions which Death does not level, but damps and signs with an everlasting seal I Death is the great level ler of wealth and poverty, of fain nobility and untitled worth ; but the true Immortals are the few who, when the night comes after the labour and the pain, go down below the horizon like the sun, greater and more glorious at the moment of setting. To men of this lonely and lofty order Death ii the court of last appeal in which the judgments of faction and party are reversed. It is the retributive tribunal, before which the re morse of power is unavailing, and even the regrets of a nation appear too late. . The moundul solemnity of yesterday may well be regarded as a penitential service. It is by these affecting and not expensive celebrations that a rich country delight, to reward its heroes when they are gone beyond the reach of royal favour and ministerial recommendation. For after all, life is life and death is death ; and, in the man's life-time, incorruptible honour, ardent zeal for the public good, unscrupulous boldness in detecting and denouncing abuses, un concealed contempt for the creatures of favouritism, are dangerens and unpardonable qualifies, even when accompanied with the moat chivalrous daring and transcendent genius. And if officialism doles out with niggard hand the scantiest recompense to the victim of half-a-century's lingering injustice, it is ever ready to ,wall the chorus of national sor row at a Coctraaws's tomb. Better one word of justice fifty years ago than anthems, and proces sions, and plumes, and alibis* now It were vain to imagine the millions of British gold and the thousands of British lives that might have been saved had Lor d Cocitaaws enjoyed the _ _ countenance of an ideal British Government and of a British Admiralty such as the world has never seen. Cynical philosophy declares that no man ever deserved persecution more than the incor rigibly honest, zealous, and fearless officer, whose ma-vices were an eyeless to Tory favourites, and whose opinions were odious to Tory Ministers. Yet, as we listen to the dirge in Westminster Abbey, we are awe-struck by the strange mystery of sorrow which seems to have clung like a cloud to this man of high heroic ancestry, stainless name, surpassing genius and courage, and who came into the world at the most opportune moment for serving his country, and discovering his own splendid natural endowments. It were easier, perhaps, to account for the grudging indifference even of Liberal Admi nistrations, which restored to Lord Doenoirato bit by bit, in driblets, the honours of which he had been robbed by a relentless Tory faction, and for fifty years denied him access to the means of com pleting the masterly vindication of his honour which he has pull:shed almost at his dying hour. We have only to look back five year to under stand this tardy and reluctant justice to the man who deinandsd Administrative Reform fifty years ego. Lord DCNDONALD lived, however, to enjoy the benignant sympathy of the Crown and the respectful favour of the Admiralty. It will be to the hurting honour of Sir Joan Paamirrox to have deserved the tribute of Lord Donau:vita% thanks ; and the Duke of Sommerr will not dis dain the generous gratitude which associates his name with the last chapters of the hero's story. Would that we could say that Lord DrNDONALD had lived to hoist his flag in something better than a sailing two-decker ! But, no : he woe appointed at seveidy-five to command the West Indian squadron —to have sent him to the Mediterranean would have been almost as gracious as to have re stored to him the arrears of pay which to the day Of his deat:i ho never received. It makes one's heart sick to read that touching passage in ha Autobiography where he thanks Goo that his heart is still unbroken. " For all 4. hie days aro sorrow, and his travail grief ; yea, " his heart taketh nut his rest in the night." Yet in his last hour he looks his country lovingly in the face, and thanks GoD that he has served her faithfully. The death of COCHRANZ may be said to close an epoch in onr naval annals.

The Hero and the Ariadne came to anchor in Plymouth Bound at bait-past nine o'clock, the ships and forts saluting. The Himalaya had communicated with the squadron, and is gone on to Portsmouth. The Avon is lying alongside the Hero to take the Prince of Wales on shore. His royal highness will proceed by an early train to London. The Corporation of Plymouth intend to present an address to the Prince. (From the second edition of the Tina.) 10 A.m. The Hero was accompanied only by the Himalaya and the Orlando. The Himalaya is gone to the eastward. The customary salutes have been fired. The St. George is decked with colours. The weather is fine : wind westerly. All the Hero's small spars, flying jib, royal masts, and top-gallant yards are taut. She doss not appear to have suffered much from the gale. The steam-tug Avon is alongside, prepared to receive his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales. His royal highness will land at the Royal William Victualling-yard, where he will be received by the Plymouth Volunteers, under Major Dupe rier, and &guard of honour of the 12th, commanded by a field-ofher. At the station, Colonel Lambrick and 100 Royal Marines form a guard of honour on the platform. The ground is kept by Major Deacon and 100 of the Gist Regiment. The Prince goes up by special engine, now on the point of starting, and he may arrive at Windsor between 4 and 5 o'clock.

NAPLES, Nov. 14. Gaeta is still invested on the land side. On Monday one regiment and two companies of Bourbon troops were met by the Sardinians and made prisoners. The Royalists encamped onteide the fortress have proposed to surrender. The garrison of Gaeta numbers 3,000 men. General Rlapka bee arrived at Naples. AUSTRIA AND PIEDMONT. The Espero of Turin of the 12th says :—" The Austrian preparations fur war in Mantua are con tinued, and the idea of attacking the Piedmontese upon the Po still exists. The Austrian officers do not conceal it. The Archdukes Leopold and Albert review the troops and seek to animate them. General Benedek has arrived at Verona, and has been feted by the officers." The Oat Deuteehe Post of Vienna does not believe in the suisuranoes of peace given at the Guildhall banquet. It says : Pesos—between whom? Wo only know one peace which can tranquillise Europe, sad that is one be tween Austria and Piedmont. Does Lord John be lieve that he has advanced that peace by his last notes? Or did the Lord Mayor 'fill his lordship's glass too high. Are the words of the noble lord anything else than political talk and phrases of a comedy? There is at this moment only one symptom of peace, and that is the winter. If from the Neapolitan or Roman coasts nocturnal filibuskes do not carry revolution and war to the opposite coast of Dalmatia, it is thanks to the season and to tempests. We may preserve pesos for two or three months to come. A maritime insurance company would perhaps not guarantee it even for that inter val, but there are presumption in favour of the winter. If these be the hopes which intoxicate Lord John, be It so But if we are to judge from the effect which his appeals to revolution have produced among all the governments who have anything to lose, we believe that they have been combined. HUNGARY. The Nationalies, after mentioning the visit of General Klapka to Turin, adds, "We hear that the army tailors have received orders to get ready 6,000 Hungarian uniforms. A brigade of these excellent soldiers is to be formed, having for its nucleus the Hungarians who distinguished them selves in the army of Garibaldi." We read in a Vienna letter in the Nouvelle Gazette de Prune :—" Attempts have been made to secretly introduce some arms and ammunition in our ports, and to transport them thence, by agents, into Hungary and Poland. The Austrian authorities have remarked that vessels coming from England, especially some colliers from Hull and Newcastle, are engaged in this contra band trade." NAPLES.

It is rumoured that M. du la Guerronnihre is at work upon a pamphlet on the religious question. Meanwhile, "moderation" being ► quality which the government especially cultivates, a private in timation has been given to the press that they would do well to abstain from such very strong articles against the clergy as the Opinion Nationale has been publishing lately. By the way, the Union is to be prosecuted for reproducing the "false news " for which the Opinion Nationale has to answer at the bar of the Correc tional Police. It appears certain that the question of the Pope's departure from Rome was warmly discussed at the last council of cardinals, presided over by his Holiness, but that the council broke up without eoming to any decision. The news of a further rise in the discount of the Bank of England, and a fall of per cent. in Con sols, produced a great effect upon Ike Bourse. But as opinions are very much divided as to the ulti mate tendency of the market, a large amount of speculative business was done. It is greatly feared that the Bank of France will put on another I per cent. to-morrow. The Rents fell 250. for cash, and 20c. for account, closing at 69fr. 80c. and 69fr. 90c. The lots of the great step of 70c. produces a great im pression on some minds. Mobilier fell Bfr. 7543. The railways were well supported by cash pur chases, .but for account they were rather lower. Accounts from America are looked for with much anxiety, the fear of a monetary crisis there occa sioning more apprehension than anything else. THE LONDON SALTERS' COMPANY. SPERO/UR OF LORD PALIURSTON AND LORD J. RUSSELL. Last night the Master and Wardens of the Wor shipful Company of &hem enteriithsed Lord Palmentair, the Duke of Somerset, Lord John Rama and other die. finguished guests, in their magnificent hall, St. Swithin's lane, City. Sir Charles Wood end other members of the government were also invited, but were prevented from attending by other impgementa. Besides tho ministers abovenamed, there wen among the com y, which was upwards of 200 in number, Baron Rothschild, M.P., Sir J. Duke, M.P., Mr. R. W. Crawford, M.P. (the parliamentary representatives of tho city), Colonel C. 8., Com modore Drummond, the Muter of the Merchant Tailors' Compsay, and the Mester of the Skinners' Company. Mr. Joan Cessna the Maser of the Company of Bolters, presided. The knit to "The Navy, the Army, and the Volunteer Carpi," wee responded to by the Duke of SOMME? end Col. Mliottbo. The latter gallant officer stated that we had 78 =lid battalions, eocapsising about 42,000 MD, who would be At in • very short time to take their place with the line. Besides thane there were upwards of 38,000 other volunteers, who, although composing scattered corps, had already been brought into 68diff erent administrative battalions, which were also ready with their field officers and staff to take the field if need were. These 88 administrative battalions, coo slating of 86,000, could move almost as well as the 42,000 in= constituting the 78 solid battalions which he bad men tioned. Thus we had *Awe= 70,000 and 80,000 volunteers equal to the =edifices of the line of battle. The Citartafrar having proposed the toast of " Her Ma jeik's Ministers," - - - . Load P•tanterree replied. After paying a tribute to the company is that character as kith landlords, his lordship continued:—" I regret, genUsteu, that some of my col- leagues whom you honoured with invitations were pre vented by unavoidable engagements from eejoying your hospitality, but I am happily accompanied by two dis tinguished mamba* of the present government, who hold some of the most important departments of the state. (Hear. hear.) There is my noble friend the Duke of Somerset, who conducts the business of the navy, and my noble friend Lord John Russell, one of your members—(cheers)—who is charged with the management of the foreign affair' of 'this country. You may rest assured that, while my noble friend the duke devotee to the duties of his important de. partment the untiring linergles of his manly mind, yournavy, as far as human exertions ism make it, will be fully adequate to every exigency which the course of events may create. (Hear, hear.) You may also rely that while my noble friend Lord J. Russell has the conduct of our foreign relations they will be carried on in a manner consistent with the interests, the dignity, and the honour of Great Britain. (Cheers.) My noble friend, all through life the friend and champion of the principles of freedom, Inuflately had to perform duties connected with the deve lopment of freedom in one of the most interesting countries of Europe. (Hear, hear.) You Lave seen him watching the progress of events in Italy, a country to which he has not only directed the energies of his mind but of which he has • knowledge acquired by personal visits. You have seen him at one time endeavouring to check those rash impulses which threatened to renew wars which if renewed might have blighted all the best hopes of Italian freedom. (Hear.) You have seen him on the other hand using the peat power and influence of England to exhort other countries to follow her example by abstaining from all interference with the events passing In the Peninsula, and by leaving the Italians to settle their own affairs according to their own views of their own Interests. (Hear, hear.) I trust, gentlemen, that before long my noble friend will see the accomplishment of his earnest wishes, and will be able to witness the triumphant success of the principles of which he has been so steady, so persevering, and so consistent an advocate. (Cheers.) You have alluded, Mr. Warden, to an event which has awakened the deepest interest in the Wad of evert , Englishman. I mean the visit of the Mese of Woks to the North American continent It wit j oi s is t se patted that whoa the future hope of hlte subjects of her Majesty in our North Amnion pennon he would be received with that enthusiastic affection which becomes a loyal sad Washed people. Our anticipations have not been disepplinted. The reception of the prima has been warthy of the people who gave it, and honounble to the family of whisk he is se distinguished,. member ; and we may hope that that visit will cement more closely thous ties which, I trust, are long destined to bind together thee portion of the Queen's dominions and the mother country. (Hear, bear.) But we bad not an equal right to expect that when his royal highness visited the United baton be would be received with anything more than the cool which civilised nations accord to distinguished members the reigning family of another country. But I must sey has been mat gratifying to witness the cordiality, the heartfelt kindness, the generous hospitality, and Try my the sahusautio delight with i which that Merriam mum was welcomed by our cousins n the United States. (Cheses.) 'They have shown themselves indeed, to be a noble and generous people—they have sho wn that they have sot forgotten the cosamoo dock from *Mb Mersed we have 'prong :ug h , in spite of emote ea se we e in oblivion, migt have produced some between us, they received our future *overage—Qi n = that future may be long distant—they received the eldest ma of our grecionn sovereign, not es if he wen a einsager belonging to auother land, but as if he bad bma bent In their own country, and had been a titian dibble own republic. (Cheers.) I trod, gentlemen, that the reseen brace of the generous kindness thus exhibited by the people of the United States will ever be cherished by the people of these kingdoms. I believe the memory of the prince's vidt will hog survive in the breads of the. Anteninaa aatios, and that these mutual will teed more °Mealy than mar to knit together two great ',mocha of the same noble and I will say illustrious stock." ... (Cheers.) The Minim then gave "The Members for the City,* which was duly honoured. Lord Joss Rcsasta., in respeuding, aid—l rise to re turn tracks in the Dams of my colleagues, and in my owe, for the compliment which you have paid us ; and I am glad to see that, my three colleagues being present, you have before you a complete representstion of the city of Leaden. ("Hear, beer," and a laugh.) And here, in their premmes, Ist me my that thee* is on. thing which I think meec►ers elpmikunentoind especielly these representing mash wealthy eessminsities es the city, ought is future to attend to : that is, to provide a milkiest forc►—end one not mom time sal eitest—for the defence et the United Kingdom and the great aspire of which it is a pert. We have at various times, as I 4* et • • . I P 1 * (1 bee, seen,lieen too subject to botffita of exit atsgance,and then ape to cold fits of soonesay. (A Leigh.) We have heard Mum my noble Mad the First Lord of the Admiralty,aad from the gallant colonel who is so d i stinguished a member d Ilk army, that which they bad to say upon our defences. Now, I would observe that if the ministers of the crown bring forward extravagant estimates, let those estimates Ibe retrenched. But if they introduce each estimates as are fitting for this peat country, as only g ive a proper insurance to its wealth, its property, its independence, and its liberty, then I trust there will be a steady continuance in those expense, and that the nation, wealthy as it is, will not podp the necessary sacrifices for such greet objects. (Mar, rear.) Allow me now to offer a remark or two respecting the important department with which I am immediately eonneoted, and with regard to which my noble friend at the head of the government has said a pest deal too much in my prase. Of this, gentlemen, I an persuaded, that he who is charged with the foreign department of a peat country like this need not have recourse to those wiles, those intrigue, and those sub terfuges which are supposed to form the proper Undo and the proper weapons of a diplomatist. (Hear.) My con viction is that in speaking the language of ' truth and jus tice—speaking it calmly and with moderation, but yet with firmness, never disguising the truth, the influence of this country is to be sustained and augmented, without any of those intrigues to which those who think themselves clever diplomatists are apt to resort. (Hear, hear.) Such, gentle. men, is the view which the present government have adopted. When they assumed office there was a great' contest going on in the shape of an active war, which presently ceased, but then took another form. In that contest • great country, eminently civilised, full of men of talent and genius, men of an aspiring disposition, took a part. The question was, what was the fitting course for the English government to pursue? The course which we pursued from the commencement, which was an nounced by my noble friend in the House of Commons, which we have repeatedly declared since then, and which my right bon. friend the Home Secretary stated last year in the Guildhall, on Lord Mayor's-day, was this—that we should do everything in our power to give the Italians fair play, to leave them to suite their government for them selves, and to say what manner of government and what persons to conduct it they deemed beet suited to advance their own interests. (Hear.) And if. gentlemen, in the coarse of the changes which have taken place, the Italian people have thought fit to expel a dynasty—if they have thought fit to call another prince of another family to aasume the rule over than with a view to obtain good government, I think that, seeing it is what we have done ourselves, we should be the last persona to blame them. (Hear, hear.) Aud when we reflect further that that act of our anoes , tors, that expulsion of • sovereign who had misgoverned, that call to the throne of • prince endowed with heroic qualities, has given us 170 years of li berty and prosperity—of liberty, I believe, as peat as any people ever enjoyed, of prosperity as remark able as the history of any part of the globe will furnish—l say, when such have been the consequences, it is not for m to censure others, who, following our exempts, hops for the same liberty sad the same prosperity. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, my noble friend Lord Elgin is engaged in a most diffi cult task in China. Upon hiss and his colleague, the representative of the French Emperor, depends the choice of the nouns to be pursued—a course which may involve the safety of all British merchant& trading and residing in Chive, and may effect our future commerce, and all Gun future relations with that great part of the pa. pulation of the globe. AU I ask of you, gentians., is not to give • blind and unlimited confidence to Lad Elgin, but to give him so much of your confidence and your forbearance as to believe that he, • man of OZ. perience in these matters, a man of abilities which no one will deny, w il l apply that experience and those abilities in the way that he thinks best fitted to secure thew, great objects, to hi not • spot or it speck stain the honour of his country, end at the same time to commit and to cherish the greet interests of pesos. Gentlemen, I ask of you that to/Marano, and consideration fora man who at 115,000 miles disianoe has to deal with these great questions. Praise has been bestowed, and most justly. on those who in our army and navy have been vindicating our reputation sod upholding our interests. I ask you with the same readiness to give credit to the man who is conducting our diplomatic relations with that distant empire ; and be assured that neither he nor the government at home will ever permit the character of this country to be tarnished or endangered by . anything which may take place there. (Hpar, hem.) It is not for ourselves alone that I speak: We occupy • position on the globe too important to be hazarded or lost—a position on which depends, in a great measure, the future welfare of other countries. It is our business—it is our duty—to act with moderation, but at the mum time never to forget, never to conceal, never to blush for those greet principles which have made us what we are, and which, I hope, will long maintain us in the same proud position. (Chine.) Lord PALM/a ON in proposing the " Health of the Muter Warden," said he understood it was the practice of the Salt's' Company annually to elect their chief. Far be it from him, who happened to be the chief of another company—(laughter)— the cabinet, to imply that this rule of the Salters should be introduced into his company. He admired their rule as applied to them, for it bad, in produce nig the election of theirpresent excellent chief,undoubtedly worked most satishielon. At the same time, the circum stances of the cabinet were wholly different, el he did not think it would be equally beneficial to subject its chief to annual election. (Laughter and qheers.) He had the greatest pleasure in proposing the " Health of their worthy Wadell."

The' Empress left St. Cloud before daybreak this morning, for Scotland. The Emperor escorted her to the Northern Railway station. Her Majesty is accompanied by the Princess d'Essling and Madame de Saulcy, and her equerries, Baron de Pierre. and the Marquis de Lagrange. She is going direct to a country house in Scotland belong ing to the Dnehees of Hamilton, and desires to travel in the strictest incognito. She will be absent from France for several weeks. For reasons with which I am unacquainted, the government evening journals received orders not to speak of her depar ture, and it is only mentioned by the Prea.e. I hear that the low-spirited state in which the Empress has been since the death of her sister, renders her more than ever &wearable to priestly influence, and that being unable to persuade the Emperor to set the Pope on his legs, she wishes to be out of the way, in order the more completely to wash her hands of all responsibility for the events that are likely to occur in Rome. A pamphlet, certainly not official, but still sig nificant, has appeared to-day at Dashes with the singular title of " Pape et Empereur." The author (understood to be M. Oayla) proposes the suppression of all relations between the Preach clergy and Rome, that bishops - and priests should be elected by the people as in the primitive days of the church, and that the Emperor should con centrate in his own person political and religious SOUTHWARK ELECTION Yesterday evening a public meeting of the in habitants of Aouthwark took place at the Horse Repository, Elephant and Castle, to consider the claims of G. Soo,, Faq., to represent the borough in parliament. The meeting was numerously attended, and considerable excitement pre vailed. The chair was occupied by Mr. Lock, churchwarden, and surrounding him we notioed Dr. Walter, Mews. D. Harris, Mendell, Motley, Rogers, J. Day, J. D. Neal, &c. The CLIMILMAN, in opening the proceedings, said that the meeting had been convened to choose a representative in parliamvut in oonsequemoe of the death of their late member, Sir Charles Napier, who he (the chair man) was. tare was regarded by all ponces as a most able and conscientious man. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Scovell was known to the inhabitants for many yews as a highlyrespectable and good citizen. (A Voice—" Where is he Ho had been before the borough on two occasions to seek its suffrages, and some two or three years ago bad retired in obedience to the pmt and geueral feeling evinced for Sr Charles Napier. Mr. Scovell 's political principles were, he believed, in unison with the great majority of the inhabitants. (A Voice- -" Why don't he come here him self!') He was certain they would always fi nd him ready, if sent to psrliament, to aid every good movement, and advocate their interests. (Great noise and calling for Mr. &oven.) The chairman continued, that if the meeting were of opinion that Mr. Scovell should re plannt them in parliament be would come forward, bet that gentleman did not wish to appear before the meeting till he had ascertained its feeling towards him. He trusted that the corning election would be conducted on independent principles, and that every voter would go to the poll to record his vote in a conscientious manner, and without any show of extravagance, as was so often witnessed at elections. D. WALTER rose to propose the following resolution : "Resolved—That this meeting having considered the claims of Mr. G. Scovell to represout the Borough of Southwark, is the place of the late gallant and lamented Sir Charles Nvier, is of opinion that Mr. Sowell would well and faith fully represent the borough, and resolves to ret that at gentleman once to become a candidate, and pi i tself to support him at the poll.* He said that they met there under circumstances deeply to be deplored, but hooonrable to the borough as they were nut aese - rnbleti to be dictated toast* who should be their member. He believed Mr. G. ficovell wan a fit and proper man to represent them in partientent. (Cries of "No, no Mr. Stovall bad stood for the borough on two ocoraions, and once had po lled above three rammed votes. (A noise, acrd • Voice : Why did he not attend 1") He would inform the melting why Mr. Sowell was not there. Mr. Scovell believed that if it was desired he should be their representative he should be soli cited. (Cries of "No, eo," and "Mr. Scovell said he would not attend a public meeting.") He celled upon the working man to show themselves worthy of the franchise they were now claiming to be extended to them. The enemies of the working men said that the extensiou of the franchise bad been the extension of corruption, and he called upon the working cluster to do away with the ini quitous system of extravagance practised at elections. (Noise and cries of "Turn him out ") They were met there to exercise the moat important privilege they poeseried, and while be did not wish to dietnte to the electors in any way as to the choice of their future no presentative, he believed that if Mr. 'oven should be re. tuned he would advocate their interests. (Uproar). Mr. &oven's principles were the same es those of Mr. Lodra their present representative. Mr. Scovell is well knows— (a Voice— " Too well known")—for his integnty and hotiour. (Voice—" Who paid you to come hen!) tie (Dr. Walter) bad resided in the borough for the past 30 ream, and kis defied any man to come forward sod cry that be ever had • sixpence from soy one. The noise continuing, the speaker contented himself by reading the resolution and resuming his seat. Mr. Byrt.rit seconded the resolution amidst great rang and other reins. He said he would not set down before he informed the meeting bow Mr. Scovell had ✓ated with his workmen. In 1853 Mr. &oven's supernume raries in his wharf complained of their low wages, and h e generously increased their pa/ from threepence to fourpence per hour. (Iteueweil uproar, Any person might go to the wharf and see the fact region ed in the boks, and by which be bad lost ?,(KIU(. If the workmen wanted a representa• ties who studied their interests, and the climes of whom would do them 11011.A1Z, Mr. &ova wan the man. (Cheers and interruption.) Mr. JOUS list resit and spoke in the highest possible terms of Mr. Soovell. He believed him to lie quite ca pable of representing their interests in parliament. He bad known Mr. &oven for many years in the capacity of • magistrate. (Continued interruption.) Mr. Day wad proceeding to propose a resolution, acknowledgiw the merits of Mr. Hcovell but giving the preference to Mr. Apsley Pellatt, when the uproar became so great that the sp ea k er was obliged to retire. There was no seconder to Mr. Lard Mr. Avesta, a working man, rose to address the meeting. He said he came there as a working man to express his minion on the choice of a representative. (Cheer (" H o w much have you received ?^) The gentleman asked him how much he had received. He begged to inform him that Listen was dead, and therefore the character of Paul Pry was out of date. (A laugh, and interruption.) He had an immense amount of patience, and could stand them out. He was not there to imitate the language of the previous speakers, but to enunciate Lis own feelings. He was there to tell them what he thought ; and although at such a noisy meeting it required a large amount of moral courage to express an independent opinion —(tumultuous yellings)— he would come to the point at once, by saying, that a great commercial community like Southwark required to be repre seated by a gnat and experienced commercial man, and with. out detracting from the ment, of Lord Frog—(a laugh)—and other fine gentlemen whose names were p in the streets, so important a borough as Southwark demanded that their future representative should be well acquainted with their local uitereste and wants. (Uproar., The speaker continued :It appeared he was out of order. The chairman had informed him that he had no right to speak till the last proposition hail been seconded, and he wanted to ask them not to receive that motion. (Cries of "Co away," amidst which Mr. Ayeat descended from the table upon r i ot which an heh another working worakis pea k ing .)man, said he bad come to ask his fellow-workmen whom they would have to represent them. (Groans.) He told them that Mr. Apsley Pellstt was the bat man. (" No, no, " " Bravo.") A person here attemptea to address the meeting, but was ordered by the chairman to stead darn. ' The Ultimate', put the resolution, 'thick, amid great noise and confusion, was declared to he carried. The second resolution was as follows That the chair- man and the gentlemen who hare called this meeting be IP. quested to convey the foregoing resolution to Mr. Scovell, and to arrange a general and district committee to conduct the election on his behalf." It was proposed by Mr. C. B. Finn, seconded by Mr. KNIGHT, and agreed to without discussion. The proceed. inp terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman. A meeting was held at the School -room', Ruseell.etreet, Bennondeey, last evening, to ounwder the claims of Mr. Apeley Pellatt to represent the borough. Mr. WIDIT was called to the cbtir, and observed that in his opinion every man who conduced to the benefit of his country ought to be an elector. (Hear, hear.) There were several gentlemen at present in the field as candidates for the representation of the borough of Southwark, but there was one who wee an old and well-tried friend of the working classes—he meant Mr. Apsley Pellatt. (Cheers.) There was a gentleman who said the other night that Mr. Apeley Pellatt possessed no influence in the house, but he (the chairman) held quite a different opi nion. In all ogees of chanty, Mr. Ansley Pul len was always the first to open his and in his (the speaker's) opinion they could not pose ; better man to represent them. He felt great pleasure in saying he would do all in his power to obtain that gentle- Mee return, In conclusion, he hoped the electors would do all they could to further the some object. Mr. Hernias said be was there to take the place of Mr. Apeley Pellatt, who, from a domestic ailliction ' would be unable to attend any public mectin for three or four days. They required men of actual • habits to represent the borough of Southwark, and he was of opinion that Mr. Pellatt was the very man they wanted. (Hear, hear.) There had been bribery to a very large extent, but he trusted on this occasion the boron^h would retrieve their character. He was certain that Mr. Ansley Pellatt was determined to go to the poll on thisoccasion, and test the opinions of the electors. (Load cheers.) He was glad to inform them that they bad a very large working committee ; and Mr. Penning, of Fenning's.wharf, h a d consented to become the clusirimui. He concluded by thank ing the meeting for the patient hearing they had given him, and if any person present had any question to ask him on behalf of Mr . Apaloy Pellatt ho should be most happy to answer IR Mr. Belgor, after a few remarks, proposed " That this meeting is of opinion that the claim.. of Apeley Pellatt, Esq., to the representation of this borough as a load man are to be preferred above any other candidate. This meet ing pledges itsolt to use every exertion to secure his return." Mr. WARD briefly seconded the resolution, which was then put mad carried unanimously. Mr. Hoy Fawcett has issued the following address to the erectors : "Gentlemen,--Five days since I nuns =engirt you a stranger, resolved to give you a candid exposition of my political views. This I have almely dose, and the result big been that three most influential public meetings have passed unanimeus resolutions, to the effect that my politica opinions coincide with the nuijmity of the electors, and that my qualifications are worthy of the serious consider. tion of tie constituency. Such a reception justifies MO in at once issuing au address. 1 believe the Iniftimate asy to canvass a large constituency is for the candidate to ad. dress a aeries of public meetings ; he thus gives every elector the opportunity, not only of hearing hint, but also of questioning him. This is the canvass I mean to pursue, and I therefore need not here enter into a detailed exposi. than of my *pions. My political sympathies are so en tirely liberal, that if your It. honoured representative, Rh William Molesworth, had been liviug, there is no one whom I should have been so aaxious to follow es a political leader. I would willingly have accepted the extension of the suf frage, proposal by Lord John Russell, but his Reform Bill was in other respects moat unsatidactery and incomplete. For instance, the absence of a lodger suffrage excludes many who are best fitted to exercise the franchise. I should have voted in favour. of Sir J. Trelawuy's bill ofi church rates. I am a member of the Established church ; but that doe* not make me a less sincere lover of religious freedom. I have shown my earnestness in thin cause by the active part I have taken in my position as a fellow of an important college at Cambridge, to remove those restrictions which almost en tirely confine the pecuniary endowments of the English universities to members of the Church of England. I object to the present enormous expenditure. I believe it could be with safety to the country so much reduced that much of the taxation which so particularly presses upon the people might be materially diminished. I cordially approve of the volunteer movement. History affirms that the disciplined loyalty of a great and free nation tonne an invincible army the signifi ca nce, therefore, of the Volunteer movement ought to be impressed upon the government, because the present excessive expenditure is based Upon the plea of pro tecting the nation from invasion. To every question of local interest I would give my moat unremitting attention. Two subjects of paramount importance to your borough ought not lung to escape the attention of the legislature— the equaleation of the poor rates and the reform of the local government of the metropolis. Having been so autho ritatively assured that my opinions coincide with those of the majority of the constituency, 1 will at once pledge myself to go to the poll, should any considerable section of the electors decide that I have the capacity to represent them with adequate weight in the House of Commons. I em engaged in no profession or business, and if you return me as your representative, my whole time and energy shall be devoted torny parliamentary duties.—l have the honour to be your most obedient servant. " HrtrllT Fawerre. "81, Bury-street, St. James's, Nov. 14, 1860." Last nights numerously-attended public meeting of the electors of Greenwich was held at the Lecture Hall In that town, to hear an address from Alderman Salomon, M.P., explanatory of his parlimentary conduct daring the last session. It is stated (says the Bath Chronick) that the interesting Brahmin convert to Christianity, Jogarth Chundra °Jingo°ley, will shortly be married at Lewin's Mead Chapel, Bristol, to an American lady. Mr. Gangooley is now staying at. Clifton, but will take his departure for India, on his missionary labours, soon after hie marriage. A number of the 40-pounder Armstrong guns, manufactured according to the improved system adapted to the heavy class of those guns, were yesterday proved at the Royal Arsenal butt at Woolwich, under an exceedingly severe test, and passed with the most perfect astisfaction, the difficulties which opposed the construction of the heavy cannon at the onset having been sumo...fully overcome. The Landon and China Telegraph says that it is designed to establish a regular line of clipper ships between New York and Hansgawa, Japan. The chief promoter of this line is R. H. Gallaher, a merchant of New York, hav ing • house in Japan. The first ship was announced to sail at an early day, between twenty and thirty passengers. sad nearly 1,000 tons of freight, consisting of machinery, fame houses, and assorted merchandise, having been secured for transportation on her outward voyage. Among other things depended on for a return cargo is • quantity of Japanese seed wheat, which has been ordered and is rid to be of • superior quality. CAPTURE Or • WHALI.—On Wednesday week the town of Westoirauperldare was iu a state of the great eat excitement in oonsomenoe of a report being circulated that two of the " monsters of the deep " were in the bay. Numbers of persona assembled about the pier at Kuightatone, and there not only found the report to be true, but also witnessed the capture of the larger of the two, the companion whale being fortunate enough to escape. Amongst those who were witnesses of the " latest errands," we may mention the name of Mr. Elwell, • son of Jonathan of Wallimente, who, with some few others, followed the creatures in • boat, and, after au exciting chase, managed to render helpless the Urger by means of powder and ball. Mr. EUwell, in the kindest and moat gentlemanly manner, resigned his prise to the boatmen, who have since been making a rich harvest by exhibiting the monster. The " ban " measuns % feet in length, and is of corresponding bulk, and it is calculated it weighs five tone. —S•rrborite Journal.
