The appointment of a Prefect of Catania by GARIBALDI is far more of a revolutionary act than the raising of his standard, than the summoning together of a band of armed followers, than the re jection of the Royal Proclamation. NICOTERA is this new GARIBALDIAN Prefect of Catania. And as such, as an official publicly appointed by the Genera], not by the KING or by the KIN G'S Govern ment—NlCOTEßA'S name is nothing less than the oriflamme of Civil War. There is a conscious ness that it is so upon both sides. The scabbard is flung away—on the one hand by the Hero, and on the other by the Commissioner Extraordinary now pitted against him. It is General C_UGIA, of course, who is this Extraordinary Commissioner. His appointment, as such, is announced in the Turin Gazette of yesterday. And, together with this announcement, there appears in the Gazette a for mal proclamation that Sicily is in a state of siege. Simultaneously the Italian Chambers are pro rogued. A matter obviously of conve nience, almost of necessity under the circum stances. And while these preparations for a deplorable crisis are being made in the Northern capital of the new Italian kingdom—incidents no less significant of a rapidly on-coming " tug of war" are related as occurring on the side of—shall we say the insurgents P GARIBALDI enters Catania. And it is singular to remark how he enters it. The Royal troops fall back as he advances. The Hero passes into Catania without any difficulty.— without encountering the smallest obstruction. He is received by the inhabitants with enthusiasm. His welcome there is nothing short of an ovation— and an ovation perfectly spontaneous and impro vised. Barricades are thrown up in the streets ra pidly—from a consciousness that the Royal Troops are hard by : with a legend inscribed upon their banners reading very much like Miching Malecho, freely translated by HAMLET "meaning mischief." The royal fleet, too, is known to be there, in those southern waters, in the immediate vicinity ; ready to co-operate with the royal army wherever and whenever that co-operation may be required. Ac counts varied, however,tns to whether the fleet was, at the time of our last advices, off Trapani, or off Catania. There was no uncertainty at all, how ever, in Sicily as to the State of Siege having been formally proclaimed there. It was announced in Turin, as we have seen through the columns of the official Gazette. It has been announced in Sicily, by General CUGIA'S issue of a brief, but at the same time a wholly unmistakeable proclamation. " Sicilians 1" says this document, "iNotwithstanding the words of the KING, the vote of the Parliament, and the forbearance of the Government, in giving time to the deluded people to return to their duty, the armed bands of GARIBALDI continue to occupy an important town." Bent at once upon that plain speaking which calls a spade a spade, the General continues—" The rebellion is thus open, and the Government has resolved to put an end to this state of things so compromising for the destinies of Italy. Every armed band or tumultuous meeting," he therefore adds, " will be disolved by force." And, as if these words were not sufficiently indicative of the fixed determination of the Government to deal vigorously with the formidable difficulty before them, Gen. CUGIA closes his proclamation by saying _it The liberty of the Press is suspended. The commanders of the troops of the divisions of Palermo, Messina, and Syracuse, will assume both civil and military powers." Meanwhile it must not be imagined, for an instant, that if the Go vernment are showing themselves to be thus resolute in dealing with the Garibaldian movement, GARIBALDI himself is evidencing anything like a tendency even towards inertness. The game of war upon which he has now, as we all of us think, so rashly adventured, is seemingly kept up there in Sicily almost without the necessity of any effort on his own part. He has only to appear anywhere in person to be received with acclamations. If, according to the loyal dictum of SHAKSPERE, "there's such divinity doth hedge a King that trea son scarce dares peep at him"—the same may be said of the soi disant traitor when, as in GARIBALDI'S instance, he himself happens also, in spite of his treasonous designs, to be also a King of Men born without the purple ! Talk as the Italian Ministers at Turin may affect to do about the devotion of all the army, officers and privates, cavalry and , infantry, artillery and engineers, for the cause of the Crown, as opposed to that of GARI BALDI (meaning, this last, the cause of the People) —it would be idle, it would be the sheerest folly, to blink the ft ct that in the ranks of the army, no less, certainly, than among the masses of the popu lation there are crowds of Italians who would Shrink with horror from raising a sword, from 4 lting the muzzle of a rifle against General GARI BALDI'- That, to them, would be no less flagrantly and heinously Treason—" leze majeste "—than lift ing a hostile hand against the KING himself ! Mad, GARIBALDI'S present enterprise may be. Deplorably a dv ised it unquestionably is. Yet— Woe will it be to those by whose hand GARIBALDI ma y possibly fall during the contest ! Even while reprobatingcs r his present extravagant point t o f .view to be re gretted,ißA Eltiro by enterprise as o n e inevery v the fatal conceivable the destruction of LD those now be nt upon SGAR uppress- Europe would vi ew se—with feelings only to be ex ing that enterpri pressed by words of blow fall upon him from the side of th e execration. Should new hope, new cour age army it would give possibly a new opportunity —to the Republican be lievers in MAzziNi ! Should it fall upon the Hero from the side of the French, it would take all r to crush out the resources of the Imperial powe r' the passionate rising that would inevitably be wit nessed, there, from one end of Italy to the oth er . In the latter contingency the war would, almost of a necessity, widen : it would expand from an Italian War into an European War. It is from our convic tion of the truth of all this, that we cannot but be impressed with a sense of the momentous import of the actual state of affairs in Sicily. GARIBALDI, we may be absolutely certain, will not swerve from the direct path upon which he has entered.

The odds against him now almost seem to declare Death inevitable—with what consequences we have here intimated in that other alternative but just now defined. One consideration, at anyrate, ought, be fore it be too late, to stay the hand of every Italian soldier in the army now directed against GARI BALDI by the RATAZZI Government. That consi deration being simply, that the Italian soldier by whose hand GARIBALDI might fall would be branded for ever in History with an infamy far worse than that of a fratricide. For in striking down that Hero and Father of his country he would be guilty of parricide. Nothing is more remarkable in the great struggle now going on in America than its calling forth no Man of Mark. Hungary gave history her Kos- SUTH, and latterly, as a Statesman, her DEAR; Italy has produced her GARIBALDI and CATOUR ; and our Indian Mutiny furnished its HAVELOCK and its LAWRENCE, with others hardly inferior. In North America a war has raged over a vast con tinent, and a million of men have been summoned into the field, and yet not a single man has come forth whom even Americans would think worthy of a statue, or likely to be known to posterity ex cept e: Before the eff ec t o f th e B r i t i sh con nection to act, it h a d pro d uced i n America men as nhd worthyaam both of En FRANKLIN, WASHlNGTONgl,anHdAamnldizoofNh,erancdoloenvieesn. JEFFERSON, are names that will not be forgotten. But SEWARD, CHASE, M`CLELLAN, and even the honest PRESIDENT, the leaders in a struggle infi nitely surpassing in magnitude that of the founders of independence with the mother country, will be remembered but as names. Such general yet pre tentious mediocrity on such a soul-stirring occa sion, is itself more remarkable than any of the names themselves. It would seem, indeed, as if, in American struggles, the side of independence car ried the ability with it. The incompetency of the English Administration and generals in the war of Independence, and the superior ability of the rebels or patriots in America, is matter of historical noto riety. And even in this war, the side fighting for independence seems to monopolise whatever there is of higher ability. JEFFERSON DAVIS and his General Commanding-in-Chief, LEE, and his Ame rican CROMWELL—the "psalm-singing General"— STONEWALL JACKSON, are confessedly more likely to obtain at least an historical baronetage than any on the other side. And so, in regard to the contest itself. While no one will deny that the cause of the South was, originally, utterly inde fensible, yet it has been so ably managed, and the issues have so changed, that it is not easy now to withhold our sympathy. Even if a villain escapes cleverly from penal servitude, we somehow can hardly wish him to be caught again ; and the success with which the Confederates have defended themselves, under the greatest difficul ties, is doubtless the chief cause of that general change of feeling towards the Sonth so remarkable in this country. The abundant details which followed the tele grams last night serve only to confirm the informa tion—this time unusually accurate—which they brought. One correspondent only, so far as we have observed, writes very hopefully, and professes to believe that by the time the tropical weather has ceased the North will be fit for action with over whelming forces. It may be so. But, if it be, what means this universal fleeing from enlistment—the immense number of steerage passengers from Ame rica to Ireland and Europe ?—the " sloping" of Irishmen, also, for Canada ?—the evasion by every possible means of liability to serve ? At present there seems to be a universal stampede to get away from the drafting, at least on the part of both natives and aliens of Anglo-Saxon blood. The Ger mans, who have been used to the thing at home, seem to be somewhat more contented, and attracted by the promise of promotion by merit from the ranks ; but, as the rule, everybody is wishing everybody but himself to go to the war. We entirely justify the feeling. It is a war in which the two great dangers, the enemy and disease, are unusually ter rible. And then as to the object, surely all the less passionate men must see it in a different light to what;they once did. While it was thought that Unionism in the South was a " delieate ARIEL,', imprisoned by the hateful witch secession, the en thusiasm to liberate her was natural and honourable; but now, when nothing can be clearer than that the whole. South desires independence as one man, it does seem little short of tyranny to wage with it a Union war. It can only be a war of conquest and subjugation. Let them go and welcome, if they all wish it—must be the feeling of every dispassionate Northern man—a feeling very adverse to enlist ment. He may talk as others talk, to seem patriotic, but it is another thing to go to the war, when those who are so lucky as not to be drawn are as averse to going as he is. Vie do not doubt our Government is acting with all due discretion, but we must think that the time has come when all the Governments of Europe might at least take private and unofficial steps to let the politicians of Washington know what they really think. It may be a doubtful point what would be the effect of European recognition of the South—not military intervention ; but, our diplo matists well know that there is such a thing as taking opportunities to communicate sentiments which shall have no formal diplomatic weight. Probably this is done to some extent ; but, looking at the horrible fighting for which both sides seem to be preparing themselves afresh, and the conse quent probable prolongation of " this unnecessary and foolish war," as Mr. LINCOLN himself termed it, for the sake of humanity and commerce, surely the statesmen of Europe might adopt some friendly yet decisive course of action, In two months it will be too late. tion, via the Archdeacons, but " from me as ordi nary." Neither the Home Secretary nor the Attor ney-General, however, would vouchsafe him any satisfactory answer. The courts were open, the judges were there, let the clergy and their Bishops " i mpe o d s on But, says the House of Commons of the recalcitrant clerks, an representativeeanot another" ' this will never do. "In the present discreditable state of the Ecclesiastical Courts, it is, from the serious expense and uncertainty of the law, almost impossible) for an incumbent to resist an illegal order of his Bishop ; and in the majority of cases the are too poor to take the opinion of counsel." 37 He applies, therefore, to two gentlemen learned in ecclesiastical law, and lays the case before them. The case is, briefly this—the Bishop enjoins the clergy to make two pauses, one in the Litany, the other in the prayer for all conditions of men, during which the congregation " are earnestly desired to make their humble supplications to Almighty GOD, who is the author of peace and lover of concord, that he will promote peace among their brethren in America, and inspire their hearts with Christian unity and fellowship." And the opinion of Messrs. A. J. STEPHENS and RICHARD JEBB are requested in answer to the following questions :—" Ist. Whether the Bishop of OXFORD has a legal right to enjoin the clergy of his diocese to make the two pauses specified in the above communication. 23. Whether the clergy of the diocese of Oxford could be punished by the laws ecclesiastical for disobey ing such injunction." As might have been antici pated, the answer of the gentlemen learned in the law is in the negative on both these points. The Bishop has no legal power to enjoin pauses on his clergy, and his clergy could not be punished; ecclesiastically, for disobeying his injunction. At first sight it might seem a very small matter to cavil at, when a clerk is_only told to take a few minutes breath—and that, too, for so reasonable an object as prayer for peace between two nations infu riated-in a bloody, fratricidal, and unreasonable war. But, alas ! it is notorious that good objects and the smallness of the departurefrom law are the common pleas, by which abuses creep in—" To do a great right, do a little wrong"—or as a higher authority has it—" Let us do evil that good may coma." Now the .Bishop will surely admit that in his judgment, to violate the Act of Uniformity is a very " evil" thing. Yet it is clear that if each Bishop ordered pauses at pleasure they might render the Church service anything but uniform. Again, if each Bishop ordered congregational prayers during these pauses—" The Bishop of A. might direct a pause to enable his congregations to pray mentally for the success of the Northern States, as the supposed champions of anti-slavery; and the Bishop of B might direct a prayer to be offered for the success of the Southern States as needful for the supply of cotton to England. It cannot be reasonably contended, if this diversity prevailed, that there would be one uniform order or form of prayer in accordance with the Act of Uni formity. The common prayer of the Church can not be made up of special diocesan intercessions suggested by the ordinaries of the respective dioceses, as expressive of their individual senti ments." There is, indeed, no possible evasion of the fact that the Act of Uniformity was avowedly designed to prevent all diversity not only of creed but of the mode and manner of worship. Sir JOHN NICHOL, in strict harmony with the act says : " The law directs that a clergyman is not to dimi nish in any respect, or to add to the prescribed form of worship ; uniformity in this respect is one of the leading and distinguished principles of the Church of England ; nothing is left to the discre tion and fancy of the individual. If every minister were to alter, omit, or add, according to his own taste, this uniformity would soon be destroyed, and though the alteration might begin with little things, yet it would soon extend itself to more important changes in the public worship of the Established Church." If indeed, the Bishop of OXFORD'S injunction were legal then "in the 40 dioceses of England and Ireland every possible diver sity might be introduced in case the several bishops should think proper to direct similar pauses, but with different objects, to be introduced in different parts of the public services." It seems, therefore, very clear that the clergy are organs of the Act of Uniformity not of the Bishop ; and that the Act, not the Bishop, must regulate their stops. lie can keep them to the terms of the Act, but he cannot introduce Quaker worship into what was definitely fixed two hundred years ago. While the Act lasts clergymen must stand and kneel, turn to the East or to the congregation, speak and cease to speak by the rules of CHARLES ll.'s Long Parlia ment ; there is literally no help for it. It is not our business to argue whether all this ought to be so or not, it is so. The Act passed at the instigation of Bishop WILBERFORCE'S predecessors in 1662, and passed to eject the celebrated two thousand, will equally eject bishops who cannot abide by its restraints. Methodists, Dissenters, Catholics we believe, all the voluntary Churches, may pray as they please—the Church of England, whatever the orders of so great a man as the Bishop of OXFORD, can only use the Parliamentary prayer. It cannot even pause in the service to use a bishop's prayer, although that prayer may be for " peace on earth." HER MAJESTY'S DEPARTURE FOR THE CONTI NENT.—The Royal yacht Victoria and Albert is expected to arrive off the Terrace pier, Gravesend, on Monday next, for the purpose of embarking her Majesty and suite, for the Continent. The arrangements for the embarkation will be carried out under the direction of Commodore-Superinten dent Sir F. W. C. Nicolson, a flag-officer of the port, but no preparation of a public nature will be made by the cor poration of Gravesend for the reception of her Majesty. The Black Eagle, Admiralty steam yacht, having been under extensive alterations and repairs during the past six months, at this yard, will be out of the hands of the work men to-morrow, and she is ordered to proceed to Ostend on Tuesday next with her Majesty's carriage and luggage. FUNERAL OF MR. F. W. COLLARD.—An incident of a very interesting nature took place yesterday at the Kensall-green Cemetery, on the occasion of the interment of the late Mr. Frederic Wakefiled Collard, the eldest son of Mr. Collard, the eminent pianoforte manufacturer. The whole of the emplob es in his father's establishment, num bering nearl3 500 persons, assembled at the cemetery to follow his remains to their last resting-place, a mournful but heart-soothing gratification to his sorrowing and be reaved parents and family. THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.—The visitors to the building yesterdby, up to 5 o'clock, were 57,991, of which 5,141 were by season tickets, and 52,847 by shilling payments The long-promised singing machine which was expected in the Austrian Court has at last arrived at the Exhibition, and will be placed for public performance either in the course of i o-day or to-morrow. If it sings in behalf of Lancashire, its receipts are likely to be double, or even treble, the sums now daily raised for the same purpose by the benevolent bullfinch in the Swiss Court. MIND YOUR STOPS !—so the Bishop of OXFORD bids all his archdeacons to instruct their clergy. Some of the clergy, however, do not fancy the Bishop's stops, and think they are not bound to obey such an "injunction," though the Bishop, pro viding against the stops being thought archdia conal only, adds that it is to be communicated " from him as ordinary." But, so reason with them selves some of these ungainly clerks, even the Bishop cannot require us to violate the Act of Uniformity. We should do so we fear at our peril, should any one bring us before the dreadful Dr. LUSIIINGTON ; moreover, are we not Englishmen, although branded with the " indelible orders"— and may we not kick, if we please, even at a bishop, if, ultra vires, he bids us pick up a straw from the ground.

There will be a fair show of phea sants and plenty of hares. It must be impossible for any one to say what game is upon the lands while the crops are standing, and as the harvest is late sportsmen will find it necessary to defer the shooting for a week or a fortnight.

The Official Gazette of to-day publishes a decree proclaiming a state of siege in Sicily, and nominat ing General Cugia Extraordinary Commissioner. General Cugia has issued the following procla mation : " Sicilians ! Notwithstanding the word of the King, the vote of the Parliament, and the forbear ance of the Government, in giving time to the deluded people to return to their duty, the armed bands of Garibaldi continue to occupy an important town. The rebellion is thus declared, and the Government has resolved to put an end to this state of things, so compromising for the destinies of Italy. Every armed band or tumultuous meeting will be dissolved by force. " The liberty of the press is suspended. The commanders of the troops of the divisions of Palermo, Messina, and Syracuse will assume both civil and military powers." The DiscuBsione of to-day publishes a telegram announcing that the entry of Garibaldi into Catania took place without any conflict, the city being denuded of troops. The same paper mentions a rumour that Gari baldi will soon embark. TURIN, AUG. 22. The Discussione asserts that General Cialdini has been appointed Civil and Military Chief of Sicily, with all the powers necessary for maintaining the state of siege. It is believed that Admiral Persano will assume the command of the fleet. PARIS, AUG. 22. The Constitutionne/ of to-day publishes an article which, after declaring that the French flag will not recede before any menaces, says : " But to crush the fools who would not stop before the flag which has given freedom to Italy might be a painful necessity imposed by honour, but it would not be a solution.

LORD BROUGHAM A 7 SCARBOROUGH. On Wednesday afternoon, the Right Hon. Lord Brougham delivered an address in the Music-hall, Spa-saloon, Scarborough, in behalf of the Mechanics' Institute of that town. Mr. Henry Walker, the President of the Institution, occupied the chair, and introduced to the audience Lord BROUGHAM, who, on rising, was received with loud applause, which having subsided, the noble lord said—l believe you are aware of what has given rise to my meeting you to-day, About eighteen months ago, or rather less--in May last year—l was to have attended and presided at the union of the Mechanics' Institutes of Yorkshire, and also, I may add, to have accepted of the kind hos pitality of your worthy fellow-townsman, Mr. Woodall, the late president of the Scarborough In stitution. Unfortunately, I was taken seriously ill, and for three or four days it was perfectly impossible that I could leave my home. I was therefore obliged—l believe for the only time in my life—to send medical certifi cates to account for my absence. That illness, though severe, did not last long, and I was the only person who lost by the circumstance, for my place was supplied by my learned and excellent friend, the Lord Advocate, who happened to be in this neighbourhood, and who, I have no manner of doubt, from all that I have seen of him, discharged the duties of the office most admirably. (Applause.) I never had an opportunity of hearing my learned friend in the House of Commons, he having within the last thirty years become a member ; but I know his talents, his learning, and his experience, from the great abilities he displayed as a presiding officer at a Congress meeting in Glasgow of the Social Science Association, the year before last. There fore, I have no manner of doubt that I alone was the sufferer by the accident to which I have adverted, for a better president than the Lord Advocate you could not possibly have obtained. (Hear, hear.) But the consequences of that disappointment to me were, that, when I arrived here last week, I was asked to meet the friends of the Mechanics' In stitute that most useful and important estab lishment—and I could not, after what had hap pened the year before, refuse to comply. But in ad dition to the pleasure I have in meeting you now, I have very great pleasure in seeing in you some of my old Yorkshire constituents and friends. (Loud applause.) In my connection with them, though it was short, there arose what I reckoned the greatest honour of my life—to be elected for this county before it was divided into three ridings. (Renewed applause.) Whilst inZthat circumstance I am afforded great pleasure, I have also happiness in meeting them when attending here on behalf of a mechanics' institution, one of those establishments in which for very much above 30 years I have taken the warmest, the deepest interest, and in which I with my late friend, Dr. Birkbeck—also a York shireman—exerted myself. And I find the greatest possible gratification from the fact that this Me chanics' Institution at Scarborough can well vie with some of the most successful institutions of the kind. (Applause.) It has been crowned with very great success, and of late that success has resulted in a large extension of its premises, in the erection of a new building, which was opened somewhere, I believe, about a year ago. I have had occasion to look ,into its proceedings. Not only have I care fully examined its reports and that most important feature of it, the catalogue of the library, but I yes terday morning went over it and saw the rooms, which I find are devoted to lectures, to meetings, and to reading; and I particularly looked into the library, and was much gratified to find that the books were thumbed in a manner beyond any de scription of mine—(applause)—convincing me that they are constantly in circulation and are constantly read by the members. I myself had great pleasure in presenting to that library this morning some 11 or 12 volumes of my own publications, not on ac count of any value I attach to them, but as an ex pression of good will. (Applause) Now I have to consider in the first place the teaching part of the institution, the classes which are attended by boys and young men under 21 years of age. When a great and celebrated King of Sparta, Agesilaus,was asked what ought boys to be taught, he replied, " Teach them that which will be useful to them when they become men," Now that King of Sparta was no doubt a great warrior, a very eminent man in his age, but he had a particular love for children, and it is recortled of him that when some of the Spartans—men rather grave in their habits—found him riding about on a stick, and laughed at him for it, he said, " You may laugh now, but you will not laugh when you have boys of your own." (Cheers.) That puts me in mind of what an eminent poet in a neighbouring county said, when he was giving his opinion rather strongly of one who was at the time renowned as a great man, but who the poet consi dered a great curse, viz., the first Napoleon. The poet's expression was, " Wisdom is found with chil dren round her knees." The King of Sparta was of that mind, and took pleasure in attending to his children. Nothing could be more judicious, nothing could be more sound, than the advice he gave—to educate boys in that which will be of use to them when they become men. In regard to another branch of the Institute, I found the adults were also most ably and satisfactorily provided for. For its size, and for its amount, I never saw a better collec tion of bdoks than there is mentioned in the cata logue of the library of this institution. (Applause.) It has been with singular and excellent judgment that the choice was made, combining as it does all that is instructive, that is interesting, and that is entertaining. There are books of every sort that can be useful to men of business, whether me chanics, shopmen, clerks, or persons engaged in any other occupation_ It is hardly possible to exagge rate, to overrate the benefits conferred on the people by such institutions. Those men by assembling in the reading-rooms, and studying at home the books which are lent out—by conversing among them selves, and by attending the lecture occasionally, gather that knowledge and information which is most adapted to their station, and which will be useful to them in after life. Their station, too, may be thus improved; they may rise from it to a higher station according to their diligence and ac cording to the knowledge they acquire. I have named two great men, Agesilaus and Napoleon. But there is a much greater man of later times than either of them, I mean my illustrious friend the late Duke of Wellington, who I have heard once and again declare that the great superiority of the constitution of this country over that of all other countries was, that every man, however humble his pursuit, may rise to the highest office of the state. In the list of lectures to be delivered in con nection with the institute, and also in the catalogue of subjects taught at the classes, I observed that design was particularly mentioned, and that there are books, drawings, maps, and plans provided to assist those who are learning to design. Now, since I saw these at the institute I have seen a prize essay, written by a working milliright of Derby shire, of the name of Briggs, who shows conclu sively that there is not a thing in which greater progress can be made than in design. It is, there fore, by improving our design, by architects and students improving themselves in design, that we must hope to rival our neighbours on the continent (Applause.) I have alluded to this essay as an en couragement to all students of design. I may per haps be allowed_to mention a lecture on " Rome and its Times," by my learned friend Mr. Forsyth, a Queen's counsel, practising on the Northern Cir cuit. Tnere is a rule in mechanics' institutes to ex clude from discussion all subjects of a controversial nature, whether of politics or religion; and there fore I will not add a single word as to the risk Mr. Forsyth would have run had he alluded to modern instead of national Rome, to which his lecture ap pliPcl, for I think he could no t have mentioned that subject without expressing some discontent that Rome is not annexed to the kingdom of It a l y . And I should not have wondered to hear him . and the model mention that that State was more remarkable anything else. But for being the centre of superstition it cannot even be doubted, that t o h f at ba is d e g x o c v iti e d rn ed me in at ivi t r h . a F o o f r o sy r th's lecture. It is im possible o t u o gh d , e Z queen of watering places—(ap. pla from the prevalence of ; and trust that tha,t cli§t Tetss may not last long. Of 1 one thing I am certain, that no stop can be put to it by us, or put to what is still more deplorable to con template than even the distress from which we our selves are snffering—l mean the dreadful state in which our kinsmen of the United States, or rather of the disunited States, are placed. I say lam cer tain of this, because we find one part of the States fighting for separation and independence, and the other part struggling for conquest..-we find them involved in the unexampled horrors of civil war. I hope for their sake, as well as for the sake of France, and England, and Belgium, and the rest of the world, that this state of affairs is not to have a very long duration. But I know, I feel confident— as confident as I have a right in this free country to think of the past, the present, and the future—that unless the most absolute neutrality on the part of England and France—and still more of England than of FranceL(applanse)—without even inter vention by recognising the South, which is an ex pedient recommended—is regarded, the greatest hardships, instead of any good, would be done ; and the greater likelihood would there be of their con tinuing the horrible contest. In the present state of distress there is a most remarkable and gratifying circumstance to be reflected upon—the conduct of the working classes. (Hear, hear, and applause.) Nothing can exceed the noble determination of those classes, even when they are suffering the most bit terly, to abide by the law, to complain of no one for not promptly relieving them, to perform- such ope rations as they are still enabled to do, to carry into effect all their means—the means of saving —and even to combine improvement with saving in order to keep themselves as long as possible from receiving relief from the parish. They have done all they can do to subsist without appealing for aid to the parish, trusting to Providence to make the duration of their sufferings as short as possible. Looking back to thirty or forty years ago, when there were many cases of distress and evil times, I see now a very dif ferent state of things, as for instance in 1822-3 the time of the Luddites. Viewing the conduct of those men and the admiral conduct of our fellow-countrymen in Lancashire and the West Riding at the present time, the contrast is extreme and most gratifying—(hear, hear)—and I cannot accoant for the difference or explain it any other way than by attributing it to the great improve.. ment of the people by education and other means. As the fast friend of the working classes all my life—(loud applause) —as the fast friend, to the extent of my poor powers of the cause of education and the diffusion of knowledge to all my fellow men, this result is to me most gratify.. ing. (Renewed applause.) But I may also add, that if the working classes of Lancashire, and the West Riding, and parts of Lincolnshire, have con ducted themselves in a creditable, an exemplary manner, the masters—the capitalists—have behaved, generally speaking, as well as it has been possible for them to do. The sacrifices which have been made by numbers of those capitalists in order to keep their mills open exceed all belief. They de serve the greatest credit, and in praising the work men let us not forget the masters, for no one is a real friend of the working classes whois not a friend of the masters ; and, above all, remember that there is no more fatal mistake than to suppose that you raise the position of the working men by taking their part —as it is called—against that of their superiors. I really ought to apologise for having stated things which are too obvious to require illustration—(a laugh)—but I could not take ad vantage of this opportunity to express to you my deep gratitude for your kindness to me upon this and all other occasions without troubling you with these few observations. (The noble lord then re sumed his seat amid prolonged applause.) Sir J. V. JOHNSTONE, Bart., M.P., moved that a vote of thanks be given to Lord Brougham for the honour he had conferred upon the institute by his visit, and for the eloquent and powerful address he had delivered, and that the meeting rejoiced that in his venerable person the cause of education had still a most illustrious patron and foremost advocate. He took occasion to notice the spread of education, and the benefits conferred on the people by the establishment of mechanics' institutes. They had heard of late years a good deal said about improve_ ments, and in his opinion the country was now be ginning to receive the benefit of the reformation in the laws, and of many noble institutions, with all of which the name of Henry Brougham was pro minently identified. (Applause.) Dr. MURRAY, the first president of the Scar borough Mechanics' Institute, seconded the resolu tion, and stated, in the course of an eulogistic speech, that when he was at college at Edinburgh there were two students whom it was universally allowed would rise to great and extraordinary eminence in after days. Who were those students ? [hey were Henry Brougham and that distinguished man, Francis Horner. At that time education had progressed but little, but soon afterwards Lord Brougham and others began to interest themselves for the benefit of the workin g c l ass , b y establishing the Society f or the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge. and by introducing almost every branch of litera ture in the most clear and comprehensive style. (Applause) The CHAIRMAN put the resolution, which was carried by acclamation. MR. EDWIN JAMES. FRYER v. LORD 'WILTON. At the Judges' Chambers, Sergeant's Inn, Lon don, on Tuesday, this case, which was an action brought in the Court of Exchequer to recover £2,000 on a guarantee given by Lord Wilton in consideration of the plaintiff forbearing to take proceedings for one day against Mr. Edwin James as a debtor to him for £22,000, came on for hear ing. Two summonses had been obtained in refe rence to the trial, and a commission ordered to examine Mr. Edwin James in America. Mr. H. F. Lewis appeared as counsel for the plaintiff; and a clerk from the office of Mr. Kobel on the part of the defendant. The summons to show cause why this cause should not be taken at Liverpool, on the present circuit, was first heard. Mr. F. H. Lewis said the plaintiff had been delayed in his action against Lord 'Wilton on the guarantee he had given for Mr. Edwin James on his application for a Commission to examine Mr. Edwin James in America, and afterwards abandon.. ing the same, so that now it was important that the case should be heard on circuit, without waiting over the long vacation, and it could be heard at the assizes at Liverpool.—Mr. Justice Wiles said he did not see how he could grant the application._ The Clerk who attended for the defendant remarked that it would be contrary to the act of Parliament. —Mr. F. H. Lewis observed that the action would heve been tried at the present sittings at Guild ford, but the defendant, who had pleaded fraud l and conspiracy on the part of the plaintiff with Mr. Edwin James, had obtained the Commission he had mentioned, and then the venue changed into Lancashire, and he thought the learned judge at Liverpool would not mind losing a little of his vacation trying another case.—Mr. Justice Wiles thought his l earne d b rot h er on t h e c i rcu i t would have no v aca ti on at a ll , see i ng t h a t th ere were 156 case s en t ere d f or Li verpool, o f which 44 were special juries. He could not grant the appli cation, but a count might be added for interest on the guarantee. The second summons was for an order to rescind the commission ordered to examin e a a s u k d h t i h s a l t o t r h d e - Mr. Edwin James in America.—Mr. F. H. Lewis said as the other side had given notice to abandon the commission, even after a commissioner w as Oneen's counsel to rescinded, had t o ready s F, ip thatto sailthe orde r f or N New might York, be take an account between the parties, the action being His lordship was n ot di on a guarantee. .disposed togrant matter might be referred to a the applications, seeing that Lord Wilton had' pleaded fraud and conspiracy. —Mr. F. H. Lewis remarked that the abandonment of the commission was, i n effect, the abandonment of the defence. Mr. Edwin James was put forth as a necessary witness for Lord Wilton, and, in fact ,• his own attorney, Mr. Knobel, was defending Wilton.—The Clerk produced to his lordship some documents to show that when the commission was obtained it Was intended E d w in to examine Mr. he James; subsequent i nformation had induced . t abandonment f e 0 t ecommission —Mr Justice Wiles said he could nottake • . * upon himself to say there would be no defence, nor did he see any immediate necessity to dispose of the action at once. —Mr. F. H. Lewis thought the easiest way would be to refer the case to a Queen's counsel.—Mr. Justice Willes asked the other sid e P' what objecti on there was to a reference The Cl erk said he had no instructions ; adding that, 7 . under th e ac t, th e cause could not be tried at Liverpo o l. Mr. Justice Willes : lam not on that. I may s a y I d ec id e d i t a century ago. (A laugh.) Nit.. F. H. Lewis asked the learned Judge to refer the case, so as to save the expense of an application for that specific purpose.—His Lordship declined. to interfere.
