To answer the despatch in the most humiliating manner, cringing at the feet of that despot to whom they had charged Lord Palmerston with being too humbly servile. If we contrast the conduct of Palmerston and - Malmesbury, 1 say the silence of Palmerston was dignified compared with the cringing of Malmesbury. (Applause.) Hay ing cast this retrospective glance upon the past, I may be permitted for one moment to look at the future. It appears to me that the appeal which has been made to the country is distinctly upon the Reform question.

Illustrated with Cases com piled from the Note-book of a Registered Medical Practi tioner of twenty years' standing. Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious indication it admits of being shown that the Electrical and Nervous energies are identical ; hence, that when the latter fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a condition little short of total prostration, then by the action of Electricity, imparting certainty and efficacy to medical treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta blished to a degree almost warranting the designation of SECOND LIFE.

On Friday a meeting of the Liberal electors was held at Wolverhampton, to hear addresses from Mr. Villiers and Sir R. Bethell—Mr. H. Walker occu pied the chair. Mr. VILLIERS was received with great applause. After a graceful recognition of the kindness he had received from the burgesses of the borough, and an eloquent tribute to the great merits of Mr. Thornely's character and his services as the repre sentative sit Wolverhampton, he said Mr. Thornely was much gratified to hear that Sir R. Bethell was likely to be his successor. He did not admit, as had been urged in the House of Commons, that the rotten, corrupt boroughs were the only places which distinguished men could represent. (Applause.) It was also for the interest of large constituencies that they should select distinguished men, and men likely to take a share in the Government of the country, and he eulogised the wisdom of Lord Aberdeen for selecting as members of his Govern ment the representatives of large constituencies. It was to the absence of such men from the present administration that he attributed that remarkable ignorance of the sentiments of the country which they had displayed in dissolving Parliament at the present critical juncture, and in propositig such a Reform Bill as they had done. The great defect in the House of Commons was that the rural in terest exercised an almost overwhelming influence in Parliament, so that as in the case of the Corn Laws, it took a ten years' agitation to carry an im portant measure, and then it was effected by the influence offs:wee and fear rather than reason. (Hear.) Then by the advance of education numbers of the artisan class were becoming fit for the suffrage, and some plan--it need not necessarily be an alteration in the occupation value—but some plan was neces sary from time to time to bring such persons with the pale of the franchise. (Great applause.) Glancing at the necessity for a more adequate re cognition of large populations, and at the question of the necessity of the ballot, as a means of pro tection from coercion, he urged that reform should be at once dealt with ; but while they ex tended the suffrage, they should do it gradually, as bad always been the custom in this country, and not as in other countries, where they attempted to gain everything at once, and lost everything. It was most important that this question should be settled, and the sooner the better, especially in the prospect of a war imminent on the continent of Europe, and in which we knew not what part we might be called upon to take, or to what danger we might be exposed. Mr. Villiers concluded by pass ing a warm eulogium upon Sir Richard Bethell, and sat down amidst another storm of applause. Sir R. BETIIELL, on rising to address the meet ing, was received with reiterated applause. He spoke of Wolverhampton as being the birth-place of free trade ; and observed that the borough was remarkable for its unanimity in its choice of mem bers. It was no ordinary time at which they were called upon to exercise the electoral franchise. Europe was shaking with the tread of half a million of armed men, and they knew not whether at that moment the spark might not have been put to the train which would involve nearly the whole of Europe in a most frightful and a most sanguinary war. Such a period, when they would have imagined that a Government would have had all its energies and its anxieties concentrated upon the effort to preserve peace abroad, they had selected to awake, as far as it was in their power, intestine dissension and tumult in the country. (Applause.) Such conduct on the part of a Government called for the condemnation of every wise, discreet, and patriotic man, to whatever party he might belong. (Ap plause.) They had dissolved Parliament at that critical moment, and left England without a Go vernment, because the House of Commons had rejected th e i r R e f orm Bill ; but instead of appeal ing fro m th a t h ouse t o th e cou ntry they stated that they did not mean to re-introduce that measure, on the ground of the rejection of which they chose at that important period to throw the country into the paralysis which must attend the period of a contested election. (Hear, hear.) Sir _Richard th en referred to statements ma d e b y /Ir. Di srael i in speeches to his constituents in 1857 an d 1858, in which he had pronounced ment in th e hand of t the R e f orm Bill of 1832 as having been con s cocted by Whi g 'obb e h r Y e t t p e a r m t y a , in an ta d in ha th a e in G d o i v ca e t rn ed as the o bj ect of a Conservative- Reform Bill to reverse that result, that to • • give political power was to the Conservati ve party—(applause)—and its pro\ ons were eminently calculated to effect that object. But Mr. Disraeli had in his speech in the house, however, said that the ' object of his bill was to adapt the provisions of the bill of 1832 to the England of 1859, although he had in 1858 said that that bill was concocted. by Whig jobbery. The principle of the bill of 1832 was to make property the basis of representation in counties, and numbers and residence the basis of representation in towns; but in direct contravention of that the Government bill deprived the freeholders resident within the precincts of boroughs of their votes in counties, whilst the principle of the representation of num bers and residence was attempted to be destroyed by the votes of non-resident freeholders. (Loud applause.) After noticing the facilities which the Government bill held out for swamping small boroughs by fictitious freehold votes, and for creat ing fictitious qualifications in counties by the quali fication which made the occupation of lands or tenements a title to the suffrage, the right hon. gentleman proceeded to say that during the 28 years since 1832, the advances witnessed in the social state and the material prosperity of the country had been such as no previous period of our history had presented; and by the advance of education thousands of artisans were as much en titled to the franchise as the £lO householders were in 1832. (Applause.) That bill was a great change, which excited much alarm, but he asked now who regretted it or regarded its effects as inimical to the country ? As Mr. Villiers had said, every advance must be gradual ; an attempt to effect too great a change would retard all reform by awaken ing the fears of those who possessed property ; but he had no doubt that in a-few years political free dom would be extended to every householder in the land. (Applause.) After advocating a more equal distribution of representatives, Sir Richard said a reformed Parliament was only a means to an end, that end being the general good of the country, and he hop e d some o f t h e results would be the maintenance of peace ; a wise and economical management of the finances of the country ; and above all that office, place, and poli tical power would no longer be the mere inheritance of a few privileged classes, but would form the great prize, would be held up as the great stimulant to provoke the industry, to excite the ambition, and to reward the exertions of the middle classes of the country. (Loud applause.) He advocated the ad mission of Dissenters to a share in the management and advantages of endowed schools, and decidedly condemned church rates. With r espect to law reform—(applause)—to assist in that great work was the motive for which he first sought to enter the House of Commons. It had been said that he was a lawyer, and no doubt many in his profession did enter Parliament with a view to obtain appoint ments, but he did not seek a seat in the House of Commons until he had rendered himself indepen dent of any such favours, and had pledged himself to his present constituents not to accept any o ffi ce which would r equ i re hi m to retire from Parliament, and he had refused the office of Vice - Chancellor, to which a salary of £5,000 a year was attached, be sides other great advantages, and had since declined a still more advantageous appointment, and was ready again to give the pledge he had given to his present constituents. (Applause.) He pointed out the striking defects in the present state of the law which required the amending hand, the simplifying hand, and the condensing . hand, and ab ove a ll a department f or th e a dministration of the law, and for the steady progress of law reform required to be established. (Applause.) It was to promote such objects that he asked them to send him to Parlia ment as their representative. Sir Richard sat down amidst the most hearty applause. Votes of confidence in Mr. Villiers and in Sir R Bethell were agreed to unanimously and moss enthusiastically. COUNTIES. CORNWALL (EAST). —Mr. Robartes, Liberal, and Mr. Kendall, Conservative, the sitting members, again offer themselves for re-election. It is said that there will be no opposition. CORNWALL (WEST).—Mr. J. St. Aubyn (son of Mr. Edward St. Aubyn, of Stoke) and Mr. Richard Davey are candidates for re-election. Mr. St. Aubyn was elected a short time since to the seat rendered vacant by the death of Mr. M. Williams. LANCASHIRE (SOUTH.—Mr. W. J. Legh, of Gol borne Park, has issued an address to the free holders, as a Conservative colleague for Mr. Eger ton. He says the present Administration is de serving of his warmest sympathies, and is the only one we can look to for a safe and wise reform. SUFFOLK (EAST).—Lord Henniker, the second sitting member for this constituency; solids re election. in conjunction -with the Attorney-General (Sir F. Kelly). Lord Henniker's address is ex tremely meagre, the only political sentiment ex pressed being an opinion that the late Government measure on Reform was rejected without due con sideration and discussion of details. Colonel Adair continues to be mentioned or rather suggested as a candidate in the Liberal interest, but there is little probability of any opposition being offered to the re-election of both the sitting members. YORKSHIRE (WEST RIDING).—The Right Hon. J. Stuart Wortley has issued an address, in which he says :—" In going to the House of Commons as the representative of the West Riding, I shall do so in a strictly independent character, but with the determination of supporting the Government of the Queen. The country requires and wishes to see strength given to a constitutional executive, to deal efficiently with the difficult and important question of the future representation of the people, as also to sustain the honour and influence of England in the present critical state of Europe, and to secure the inestimable advantages of continued peace. In the course of the late debate I voted with the Govern ment, contending for a settlement of the question of Parliamentary Reform in the present session, but expressing the opinion at the same time that no settlement of that question would be acceptable to the country or enduring in its character which did not extend the right of suffrage to the worthy and intel ligent among the industrious classes. I adhere to these opinions, and shall be prepared to support them in a future parliament. The course taken by an eminent statesman for the purpose of uniting the discordant sections of a weak and divided opposition in the late majority was one which I could not ap prove, since its immediate effect was to preclude for the session the consideration of the great measure of Reform, which has now been so long pending, and involved the probable consequence of a dissolution, which would otherwise have been unnecessary, and which I thought at this juncture obviously incon venient. On religious subjects I hope I have always pursued a tolerant and conciliatory course, without sacrificing my deep conviction of the bene fit conferred on all classes and denominations by ' the maintenance of the national Protestant Church. The immense development of commercial and agri cultural activity and wealth will have reconciled many to the course of recent legislation, the effects , of which could not be certainly foreseen, but which was destined for these objects ; and my endeavours will always be to preserve the free intercourse of nations, the unburdened cultivation of the soil, and the prosperity of ships, colonies, and commerce 2" The Leeds Mercury of to-day observes :—" In Sir John Wm. Ramsden the landed interest is fitly and worthily represented. Mr. Crossley will represent the manufacturing industry; and it would be as in appropriate to reject a manufacturer for an aristo• cratic lawyer, a s t o re j ec t a t thi s crisis a decided Reformer for an anti-Reformer ora waverer. No condemnation can b e t oo emphatic for the West Riding to pronounce on Lord Derby's wretched Reform Bill ; and that condemnation would not be expressed in the return of Mr. Wortley. The language of such a return would be this—'The West Riding cares nothing for the question—has no opinion upon it, and no interest in it—but humbly desires Lord Derby to cut and car v e the Riding as h e p l eases —t o disfranchise nine thousand of its freeholders—to exclude from the constituency all its large towns—to disregard the claims of all its working men—to make as many votes as he pleases out of its great landed prop er ti es —t o accommodate rich men who wish to use unfair influence by voting papers ; and for all these purposes they send as their fitting member the Right Hon. James Stuart Wortley.' We apprehend this is not the spirit and temper of the West Riding, and that the Liberals will reject with indignation the proposal to substitute Mr Stuart Wortley for Mr. Crossley." BOROUGHS. ANGLESAY.—There is likely to be a change in the representation of these boroughs, so long the stronghold of the Whi gs . It is understood that P. Lewis Hampton-Lewis, Esq., of Henlly, the well known Conservative and resident liberal landlord, has been solicited and consented to stand. We are glad to learn that, so far as the canvass has proceeded, he has every chance of success. BARNSTAPLE.—No less than five gentlemen have announced their intention to become candidates for the representation of this borough. Sir W. Fraser and Mr. Laurie, the present members, offer them selves for re-election. Mr. G. Potts, :of London, and Colonel Stucley, of Harland:Abbey, Devonshire, both of whom formerly contested the borough, and the latter was once one of its representatives, have reappeared as Conservative candidates, and Mr. J. H. Davie, son of Sir H. Davie, M.P., of Creedy Park, Devonshire, comes forward on Liberal prin ciples. Tvl‘rf.LsleY, wh o h as b een tw i ce majorities, is again in the field Y a d t efe t e h il e teiP r d e P q Eb uis Nyiln i A tio l 7 . of the electors. His opponents are Colonel Boldero, who has sat for the borough for many years, and Mr. Long, jun., of Rood Ashton. DARTMOUTH.—Sir T. Herbert, who was formerly a member for this borough, has again offered him self; and it is said that Mr. Caird, the present member, will not again seek the suffrages of the electors. DEVONPORT.—Mr. Peel, son of General Peel, Secretary for War, and Mr. W. B. Ferrand, are the Conservative candidates to contest the seats of Mr. Wilson and Sir E. Perry. LEEDS.--The Liberal candidates, Mr, E. Baines and Mr. Forster, commenced their ward meetings on Thursday, and in every instance they have not only been well received, but resolutions have been unanimously adopted pledging those present to give them their support. " Amongst all sections," says the Leeds Mercury, " there was evidently a conviction that if the Liberal candidates were to be returned, there must be no plumping for either Mr. Baines or Mr. Forster, and no splitting for Bee croft." LISKEARD.—Mr. W. H.P. Carew, who formerly was a representative of East Cornwall, has started on the Conservative interest, in opposition to the sitting member, Mr. Grey, Liberal. LIVERPOOL.—Mr. William Seymour V. Fitz gerald, Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs, after being solicited by the Conservative party to become a candidate, has refused to stand. LICHFIELD.—Lord Sandon has retired; the names of one or two gentlemen locally connected have been mentioned as likely to offer themselves for the vacant seat. LEOMINsTER.—On Saturday an address was issued by Theodore Galton,Esq., of Hanley-grange, Upton-on-Severn. Mr. Galton comes forward in the Liberal intereft. He is an advocate of the ballot. MANCHESTER.—NEW CANDIDATE.—AIderman Abel Heywood has issued the following address : " Gentlemen,—lnvited by a numerously-signed requisition, and by a large meeting held in the Free-trade hall, I no longer hesitate to become a candidate for your suffrages at the ensuing election of members of Parliament. I have been a resident of Manchester for forty years, and starting from a humble position, have, by untiring industry, ac quired a moderate competency. Being an ardent advocate of the liberty of the press, I challenged, with many others, the Government of 1832 to a contest for the removal of the fourpenny stamp, and was thus one of the earliest workers in that great cause which Mr. M. Gibson has conducted with so much success. For the last twenty years I have endeavoured to serve my fellow-citizens in the management of the local affairs of this city ; a considerable portion of that time I have been at the head of an important department of the business of the city council. I now offer to you my services in the wider sphere of national legislation, and, if elected, shall endeavour to procure the admission of every man not tainted with crime into the pale of the constitution ; to secure their honest voting by , means of the ballot ; to shorten the du ration of Parlia ments ; together with such an equitable distribution of seats, in proportion to population and property, as will effectually put an end to the system of nomination boroughs. lam opposed to secret diplomacy in foreign affairs, and would visit with the severest censure that minister who should make war and appropriate the funds of the nation to its support without first having consulted the House of Commons. I would endeavour, as far as possible, to abolish all indirect taxation ; leave tea, coffee, sugar, tobacco, and other necessaries and comforts oelife, to be imported at their natural prices, and thus consummate the great policy of " Free trade with all the world." If returned to Parliament, I should consider it my duty to support by all the means in my power, the bill which has been pub lished to the country by John Bright, Esq. With this brief exposition of my political sentiments, I leave the issue in your hands, with the sincere hope that whatever may be the result of the poll ing, the numbers will show that the independent electors of Manchester are not afraid to trust the great working class of this country with political power.—l am gentlemen, yours, Abel Heywood, 21, Hyde-road, Ardwick, Manchester." MALnoN.--The Conservatives have found a second candidate in the person of Lieut.-Colonel Meyrick, who styles himself a Liberal Conserva tive, with "political opinions in unison with those entertained by the great Conservative portion of the community." NOTTINGHAM.—A fourth candidate is about to come forward. A requisition is in course of signa ture, requesting Mr. T. Bromley, son of the late Admiral Sir Robert Howe Bromley, to contest the borough. Mr. Bromley is a Conservative, and pro fesses himself to be an independent supporter •f Lord Derby's Government ; he states his willing ness to come forward if his friends request it. Mr. Ernest Jones has issued a second address, in which he reiterates his determination to go to the poll. The Liberal candidates (Messrs. Paget and Mellor) are pretty certain of success. NORWICH.—The Conservatives have after all de termined on contesting this city. At a late hour on Saturday Sir Samuel Bignold, who represented the constituency from December, 1854, to March, 1857, issued an address. Simultaneously with the publication of Sir Samuel Bignold's address ap peared another from a second Conservative candi date, Mr. Charles Manners Lushington, a son of the Right Hon. Stephen Lushington. PENRYN AND FALMOUTII.—Mr. Gurney and Mr. Baring, the present members, are canvassing the borough. They are opposed by Mr. Howell Glyn and Mr. John Leslie Foster. PLYMOUTH.—An active canvass is in progress. The chances appear to be in favour of the return of Mr. Collier and Lord Valletort. RYE.—The Jewish Chronicle says :—" It is re ported that Mr. Francis Goldsmid, Q.C., intends at the ensuing election to put up for Rye. It is further rumoured that Mr. J. M. Montefiore is likewise in the field, although the constituency which he has in mind is not named." . REIGATE.—Mr. W. Torrens McCullagh is a can didate. On Friday he addressed a meeting of the electors, and, resolution in his favour was carried unanimously. TIIETFORD.—A requisition, which is stated to have received the signatures of seventy of the elec tors of this extremely limited constituency has been presented to Mr. J. J. Colman, a gentleman of ad vanced Liberal views, who has for the last year or two taken a rather prominent part in Norfolk politics. Up to Saturday evening it was not finally , decided whether Mr. Colman would become a can didate, in opposition to the sitting members, Mr. Baring and the Earl of Euston. Last week Mr. Coningham met his friends in the large room at Payne's Marine Hotel, Brighton. The meeting was opened by a few remarks from the CHAIRMAN (Mr. M. Ricardo). Lieut.-Colonel FAWCETT moved " That the con duct of W. Coningham, Esq., as member for this borough, entitles him to our renewed confidence." (Applause.) Alderman ALGER (vice-chairman) seconded. The motion having been put and carried unani mously, WILLIAM CONINGITABI, Esq., who was received with cheers, expressed his thanks for the vote of confidence, and then continued: I have appeared before you so recently at a great public meeting, at which you came to a unanimous vote against the Reform Bill brought in by the Government, that I feel explanation from me on that point would be super fluous. After a long period of gestation, the Govern ment, which I have ventured to call Tory, produced the Reform Bill which they laid before the country, and which was fully discussed. The unfavour able impression which it first created was by no means diminished by that discussion ; and a ma jority of no less than 39 members of the House of Commons, in an unprecedentedly full house, con demned the bill. The Liberal party, of which lam a very humble member, have been accused of act ing in a factious manner. Now, gentlemen, I ven tilre to assert that no accusation was ever more unfounded. (Hear, hear.) The bill, in our opi nion, was condemned, and was to be defeated; it became with us a question for consideration how that defeat was to be effected. (Hear, hear.) The resolution of Lord J. Russell was believed to be the most advantageous manner of encountering the enemy; and it seems to me absurd to say that a party commanding so large a majority as the Libe ral party are not at liberty to choose the tactics by which they can defeat the Tory party. (Hear.) One of the most striking things in the discussion was the ground assumed by many who gave utterance to very advanced Liberal speeches, such, for in stance, as Sir J. Graham. He advocated a large measure of Reform as conservative in its tendency, and seemed to me to condemn the Tory Reform Bill as being too progressive, almost revolutionary in its character. (Laughter.) But I believe that assumption to be fallacious ; and if the details of that bill are fully examined, so far from being pro gressive, they will be found to be reactionary. (Hear, hear.) The bill str uc k a t sma ll propr i e t ors who had galled the Tory aristocracy in the elec tions for counties. (Hear, hear.) The chief cha racteristic of the bill was the disfranchisement of the 40s. freeholders. We looked upon it as an un warrantable act ; a blow directed at property— and one which it was our bounden duty to protest against at the earliest opportunity. When the Mi nistry is examined in its details, it is true that there are some men who entertain very Liberal opinions ; but the character of the Administration is not to be measured by them. The strength of a chain cable is to be estimated by its weakest link, and the speed of a cavalry regiment must be judged by its slowest horse ; and it is by the retrograde Members of the Administration that we are really to measure their intentions and their policy. (Hear, hear.) As an instance of the truth of what I assert,l will tell you an anecdote which I heard yesterday. One of the honourable members of the present Administration on being remonstrated with by a gentleman for not having brought forward a more Liberal measure of reform, said, alluding to the Tory members of the Government, " We have pared them to the quick, and they would not bear another shave." (Laughter. ) Now, I believe that betrays what has taken place in the interior of the Cabinet—that Mr. Disraeli was unable to carry so liberal a measure as he otherwise would have done. (Hear, hear.) That, I think, accounts for the objectionable features in the bill. The disfranchisement of the 40s. freeholders was the sop given to the territorial aristocracy to induce them to consent to the reduction of the county franchise. But I say that was no due equiva lent. The £lO occupiers in counties, without the ballot, are much more likely to be influenced by landlords than the 40s. freeholders. (Hear, hear.) The effect of that clause in the Eastern Division of this county would, I believe, have been disastrous. (Hear, hear.) Then there was another point in the bill which I must allude to,and that is to the trans fer of the freehold voters to the boroughs. My friend, Mr. Macaulay, the member for Cambridge, said, " Oh, you 40s. voters are independent and good for counties ; a fortiori, they would be independent and good for the boroughs." But he forgot that in the counties it was an attempt on the part of the Liberal party to counteract the enormous territorial influence of property, whereas the influence of the 40s. freeholders in boroughs was directed against personal rights. (near, hear.) I say, therefore, the distinction is great, and, in my opinion, we who opposed the measure were perfectly justified in de fending the rights of the borough electors. The bill has been so fully discussed, however, that I need not detain you at greater length on that point. It has been universally condemned. (Hear, hear, hear.) I think that in the face of so large a majority, and in the existing state of foreign affairs, a more injudicious and unpatriotic act than that of dissolv ing a Liberal Parliament, like that which was re turned in 1857, never was witnessed in this country. (Hear, hear.) There is one point more with regard to the Reform Bill to which I wish to call your at tention, and that is the ballot. (Hear, hear.) The adoption of that measure has been, in my opinion, greatly retarded by its having been introduced as an isolated measure. It ought more properly to form part of an extended reform measure. There are two indispensable concomitants for the ballot ; one is a large extension of the franchise, and the other the abolition of the small or rotten boroughs. (Hear.) Of the effect of the ballot in small boroughs, I am extremely doubtful, and I am by no means clear as to the ultimate effects of the ballot, as to how far it would be conservative or popular in its re sults if adopted throughout the country. I think, however, on the whole, it would be for the benefit of society at large, and that it would tend to esta blish the independence of the voter. (Hear.) I have read with great regret a pamphlet by Mr. Stuart Mill, in which he proclaims the fact that he has changed his opinion on the ballot question. Now, no one can have a higher opinion of that gen tleman's attainments than myself, and no one could have studied his writings with more respect and consideration ; but I venture to think that Mr. Mill is labouring under a mistake. He says that intimi dation no longer exists. (Oh, oh, and laughter.) He says that that is not what we have to be apprehen sive of; and he dwells on the advantages of open voting, the influence of public opinion, and so on ; but I would venture t o su b m it t o you whether, when you give a man possession of a vote, he is to exer cise it in the manner he thinks most advantageous, or in the manner in which other people may think most advantageous ? (Hear, hear.) I think that, if entrusted with the right of voting at all, he should be able to exercise that right in the m os t a b so l ute and independent manner—(hear, hear)—and I know no way by which you can attain that object so efficaciously as by giving the protec tion of the ballot. (Applause.) Mr. Mill himself dwells upon the injurious influence produced on men by the tyranny of public opinion, as he calls it. Now, if there be in reality a tyranny of public opi nion as well as the tyranny of territory and land lords, it is expedient that the individual should be protected from that tyranny. (Hear, hear.) But I have less apprehension of the tyranny . of public opinion than I have of the other tyrannies we see dominant on the continent. (Hear.) We look upon the political system of the continent with hatred and abomination. (Hear, hear.) Tyranny leads, I believe, to every evil, and this war which seems to be imminent, arises from the attempt to gratify the ambition of despots. That manifesto which has re cently been published in the newspapers by Count Cavour must, I think, have opened every English man's mind to the true character of the struggle on the continent. It is the liberty of Italy that is at stake. (Hear, hear.) We in this country are per fectly indifferent to the objects and ,ambition of Louis Napoleon on the one hand, or of the Emperor of Austria on the other. The Emperor of Austria is the friend of the Pope, and has entered into league and alliance with that most infernal political system which tramples upon the people. I say we can have no sympathy with his objects. It may be very well to preserve the treaties of Europe ; but there is something besides treaties to be considered—the lives, the liberty, and the happiness of the people of Italy. (Hear, hear.) I for one am as warm a friend of peace as any member of the house ; yet I confess that the immense moral power and influence of this country might have been used in a very dif ferent manner from what they have been by Lord Malmesbury, in order to promote liberty and civili sation in Italy.

At the request of the magistrate, Mr. Jacobsen, the interpreter to the court, read the letter, which was in German. The following is a translation of it : " Hamburg, April 10, 1859. "To the Police of Hull, On the 6th of this-month two women went from here with the steamer Tiger to Hull. One of them is n ame d M a d ame Hamam, the landlady of a brothel, and the oth er name d M me. Schwartz, also the keeper of a house of ill-fame in Hamburg. It was their intention to go to Liverpool, there to carry out the shameful purpose of theirdisgusting trade, by sending young womento Peters burg, and thereby realising heavy sums of money. A num berg of citizens in Hamburg appeal to the honourable and high-minded Englishmen (who were the first to abolish slavery) to endeavour to destroy entirely this evil by the roof. By tracing the path of those two women you will interfere with their evil intention. _ Lir.r.rt.0...,0n we give notice to the high-born police of Hull that th , 4 same two women will attire in Hull on Thursday alb:ragas, by four o'clock, by the railway from Liverpool, with a young Englishwoman, and you will apprehend them, and separate the poor girl from those bad women, and if possible make them answer able for their bad actions, and thus prevent this shameful traffic, which to the human heart ev en a pp ears a greater evil than the slave trade. If the above-named are not met with at the railway they will certainly be found on board one of the Hamburg steamers—the Urania or Britannia—which usually leaves Hull on Thursday. " (Signed) " F. HERZER. " N.B. If they are brought to justice you will soon find out by the English girl that she has been led away by the pretended holiness and smooth-tonguedness of those in famous women. If it had not been so very inconvenient I would have -attended personally before you." The magistrates said the police must act upon the instructions in the letter, and the chief constable said the matter should have instant attention. The police were immediately set in motion, and about seven o'clock detectives Coulson and Clark, accom panied by Mr. Jacobsen, the interpreter, sulceeded in finding the two women, Hamam and Schwartz, in a German lodging-house in South -street. They had in their company two English girls, named Mary Ann Ferguson and Martha Vernon, both 20 years of age, and belonging to Liverpool. They had arrived in Hull at two o'clock, per train from Liverpool, and it was their intention to proceed to Hamburg by the steamer Britannia, which sailed for that place some time last night. They were taken to the station house and locked up, but from the statements of the two English girls there is reason to believe that they were going to Hamburg of their own free will, and were fully aware for what purpose. They will be brought before the stipendiary magistrate to-day, when the facts of the case, as far as the knowledge of the police extends, will be entered into.—Hull Packet. IRELAND. DUBLIN, APRIL 16. DUBLIN ClTY.—There is not much to notice in the way of new arrangements. There have been one or two meetings of liberal electors to select candidates that would secure the support of all sections of the liberal party, and a further meeting is to be held this day. There is great unanimity of feeling, but from the number of booths and extent of the constituency a Dublin contest is always attended with a great deal of expense ; and there aro no popular leaders of the position or influence of Grattan or O'Connell, who formerly represented the city, and who could command volunteer exer tions, subscriptions, and the enthusiasm so potent in a large constituency. The Conservative candi dates have a great advantage in the influence which the residence of the court gives, and in the active organisation which they maintain for electioneer ing purposes. The freemen franchise, which, though abolished for municipal government, is ret a i ne d f or Parliamentary elections, gives the descendants of the Protestant corporations of former days such an unfair advantage that the great m a j or i ty of the Catholic population, which returns a majority in the corporation, is overborne by the freemen fran chise in the Parliamentary elect ions , and there is no place so injured by the want o f a R eform Bill to abate this injustice as Dublin.

MEDICINAL litoN.--A curious manufacture has been established in the Tyrol, namely, that of producing by mechanical means apowder of iron sufficiently fine to be used in medicine as a substitute for that obtained by the reduction of an oxide of iron by means of hydrogen. The mode of producing this powder is not published, but it is thought that it is made by very fine files. The value of this new iron powder in medicine is not as yet ascer tained ; but it has this difference, as compared with the powder p ro d uce d by means of hydrogen, that it will not burn spontaneously in air; but it will do so easily when suspended to the poles of a magnet. If the latter is plunged into the powder, and a lighted match be then applied to the powder adhering to the magnet, the iron will burn readily and brilliantly, and when the magnet is shaken the particles fall off in the form of beautiful sparks. This property is supposed to be peculiar to the Tyrol preparation.—Xechanice sragazine. SUICIDE IN BLENHEIM PARK. On Friday afternoon an inquest was held at the Bear Hotel, Woodstock, by Mr. William Branner, OR the body of a Spanish gentleman, when the following evidence was adduced : Mr. Joseph Haines, landlord of the Bear Hotel, Woodstock, deposed that on Tuesday afternoon, the 12th inst., the deceased arrived at his house by the omnibus from the Woodstock station on the Great Western Railway, and stayed there till the middle of the day on Thursday, when he went out, as he supposed, to make sketches in the Park, as he had previously inquired which were the most forest looking parts of the park to make sketches from. He left the inn about 12 o'clock, having previously ordered a dinner to be prepared for him by 6 o'clock in the evening . He heard nothing m ore o f hi m un til about 4 o'cloc, when he was informed that a gentle man had shot himself in the park, and on going there be identified the body as that of the gentle man who had been staying at his house. The de ceased spoke English fluently, was particularly quiet and reserved, and employed himself chiefly in writing during the time he was at the inn. Malcolm heir, inspector of the county police at Woodstock, deposed that in consequence of infor mation which he had received from Mr. Scott, he went to that part of the park where the body was lying, and found that the deceased had a pistol in one hand, with his fingers on the trigger, and that a bullet had passed from the mouth through the skull and out at the back of the hat. Upon the deceased were found a double-barreled pistol, powder flask, box of caps, box of wadding, five bullets, a Spanish knife, a sovereign, three shillings, thre e pence, a cigar -case, shirt and wrist studs, and a pocket-book containing a letter addressed to the Duke of Marlborough, one to Mrs. Haines, at the Bear Hotel, a passport, and sundry other letters in Spanish as well as in English. One of the latter was addressed, " Don Antonio Arrom de Ayala, Spanish Consul for Australia, Tavistock Hotel, Covent-garden." The following is a copy of the letter addressed to the Duke of Marlborough : " Woodstock, April 14. "My Lord,—l humbly ask your lordship's pardon and forgiveness for the great liberty I have taken in coming to put an end to my dreary and miserable existence in your park. It may be childish feeling, but one cannot blow his brains out in a common road, or one of those cultivated fields full of cottages, and life, and civilisation, and rail ways, and establishments of all kinds, of which your bessed country of England abound. So I have not found another proper place to die decently than your handsome park, and you must bear the inconvenience of a dead man in your grounds. I mean no offence. " I have yesterday visited your house, hoping that the sight of good things, and chiefly good paintings, could do me good, and soften the wild ideas that have led me to put an end to my life ; but all of no use. Your manor is one of the most splendid things I ever saw i n my lif e, an d I have travell e d a b out and seen nearly everything- worth seeing. You have the finest Ilubens that can be seen ; that should have a great attraction for me under other circumstances, but now th e y h ave b een of no use. " I hope, with that splendid house, and park, and paint ings, and library, you are happy, my lord. If that is the case you will have a kind heart, and pity a poor devil come to die in your grounds. If, on the contrary, you are miser able also, as wealth is a medium, and do not constitute hap piness then you will say, like old Dido,— " Non ignara mali, miseric succurere disco,' and pity me, and order that they shall leave me quiet, and bury me in the spot I have died, and put a cross on it in the Spanish fashion. I will be very grateful in the other world for it if you do so, and wish not to trouble any more your Lordship about me. " I am, my Lord, yours respectfully, "A. ARROM DE AYALA " ----- This letter was addressed outside "To his Lord the Duke of Marlborough, Blenheim Manor, or where he may be." The following is a copy of the letter to Mrs. Haines : 14, 19. "My dear Madam,—Pray do n o t be alarmed April when 85 you know I am dead on account of the payment of expenses at your quiet, comfortable place. " I had rest and quiet for my last arrangements at your hotel, and comfortable accommodation, and I am grateful for it. I wrote to my friend in London, Mr. Albert Rott man, 26, Duncan-terrace, Islington, London, who will come, no doubt, open my carpet-bag, and pay you liberally my last bill on earth. If that letter is lost, and by some chance this gentleman does not come after two months from this day, nor any other person of my relatives or friends and settle your bill, I authorise you to open my carpet-bag and take £4 out of £ll you will find in my purse and send the carpet-bag, with my watch , chain, a ring with a seal of wifecoat n f arms ,sra n of .

A telegram was received statin g that some of th e friends of the deceas e d would be - at Woodstock the next morning (Saturday). In consequence of this it was agreed to adjourn the inquest till Saturday afternoon, at five o'clock. VOTING IN NEW SOUTH WALES.--Mr. Berkeley has obtained a return of the act passed by the legislature of New South Wales, authorising the use of the ballot at elections. The system there adopted is as follows : —A. large box is prepared with a slit in the lid, and this is left open on a table in the polling booth for the inspection of the candidates and the scrutineers whom they may ap point. When the hour for the election arrives the box is locked and the key entrusted to the returning officer. Each elector then comes singly into the room and is supplied with a voting paper, on which are the names o f a ll th e can didates. This he takes into a compartment partitioned off from the room, and strikes out the names of the candidates for whom he does not wish to vote. He then folds up the paper and drops it into the box. If he cannot read, the returning officer may, on his request, strike out the names to which he objects, and vote for him. If there should affirm lo any suspicion of bribery, he i s requ i re d solemnly to . ed that he does not receive an y cons ideration, implied, itoL o i r r im ic d c er 7o st l oo v. d — ," A fo t r s giving his Cornervote at F the Farm, in expressed, election.
