An enthusiastic and densely packed meeting was held in the Town-hall, Bridgewater, on Monday night, to hear addresses from the members for the borough to their constituents on the political topies of the day. Mr. J. L. Sealy presided. Colonel TYNTE, M.P., was heartily greeted: He remarked " that there never was a time, perhaps, When there were more important interests about to come before Parliament than at the present junc ture. Our foreign relations and the state of Europe in general were subjects for most anxious conside- ration. T he hon. - member alluded at length to the events connected with the Italian war, and strenuously maintained the right of the Duchies to expel their despotic sovereigns. "It was of the greatest importance," he continued, "that England should be properly represented at the forthcoming Paris Congress ." (Hear, hear.) He should like to know what Englishman, of whatever politics he might be, would like to see the brave Italians, who had fought for their liberties and were ready to fight again, compelled to receive back the despotic rulers they had righteously expelled. (Applause.) He wanted to know whether they had not the same right that we had, at our great revolution, when we sent away a king unfit to govern us, and by virtue of which our present valued Queen occupied the English throne. (Hear, hoar.) He wanted to know by what right any Congress could send back the deposed Princes to peoples discontented and opposed to their tyrannical sway? (Hear, hear.) It was the duty of Esglishmen to speak out and to boldly state that they expected the representative of Great Britain at this Congress to perform his mission manfully—(hear, hear)—for much would depend on the energy and resolution of the British Minister whether Italy , was to be free or not. (Hear, hear.) Our assistance ought only to be given with the view of securing to the chivalrous Italians the rights they justly claimed. (Cheers.) Referring to the necessity of this country being speedily placed in an efficient state of defence, the gallant colonel said that no one unacquainted with the scenes on a battle-field could imagine what a fearful thing war would be in this country. The Duke of Wellington said it would be too horrible to contemplate. With the feverish anxiety every one appeared to entertain as to what might possibly take place it behoved us to be ready to defend our country against any hostile Power. He claimed their support in the votes he should probably have to give on the army and navy esti mates to be submitted during the approaching Par liamentary session, for he could not place his hand on his heart and say he had acted honestly as a member of the House of Commons if he did not vote for estimates calculated to place the army and navy in a fitting position to insure the safety of this country. (Loud applause.) But at the same time he contended they had a right to find fault with him if he did not, so far as he could, as a member of the Legislature and as their representative, see that the money liberally voted was properly expended. (Hear, hear.) The watchful eye of the people should be also turned to the expenditure of the taxes they had to pay, in order to ascertain that the large sums they provided were strictly and judiciously applied. This country was too great, and our interests in it were too dear, not to be thoroughly defended on the field or on the ocean. (Hear, hear.) Conscription recruited the armies of foreign States, but we trusted to the courage of volunteers; and he rejoiced to say that with regard to the navy of England the pressgang would never again have to be appealed to to man our vessels. Greatly to the credit of the present Government, they had instituted a naval reserve, which he hoped and believed would be permanently successful. Give them a good Channel fleet, and no enemy ought to be ever allowed to touch our shores. (Applause.) In the absence of an enormous standing army we had now throughout England an enormous army of volunteers. (Cheers.) Every man would become a defender of his country, and in a short time would be able to use the deadly weapon, the rifle, with a fatal precision against a foe. The famous exploits of American riflemen in former days against picked British troops could be equalled, if not surpassed, by the riflemen of England, and he sincerely and heartily wished the movement the utmost success. With respect to the question of Parliamentary reform, they well knew it was much wanted and must come. (Cheers.) During the last 10 years they had had three Reform Bills brought into the House of Com mons, and anoth © r suggested by Mr. Bright; they had had three Queen's Speeches recommending re form, and they had also had the responses of Go vernment and the sanction of the House of Com mons. The Sovereign, the Government, and the House of Commons were pledged to a Reform Bill. The men now in office would be disgraced for ever if they did not bring forward such a measure as would answer the reasonable expectations and wishes of the people. (Applause.) He voted against the sham Reform Bill brought in by the Derby Government because it did not enfranchise the working classes, so called, who were entitled to a voice in the expenditure of taxation to which they contributed so largely. There had been a discussion recently as to who should be the representative of the British people to meet the scheming diploma tists and wily ambassadors about to assemble at the Paris Congress ; and it had been said that the only man who could acquit himself satisfactorily of the onerous task was the statesman who was never abashed by the celebrated Metternich and never outwitted by th e st ill more famous Ta ll eyran d. He meant Lord P a l merston. B ut i t appeare d th a t hi s lordship w as no t going to the Congress, and he sueh introduce a m measure erefe promptly r the intoam amendment Henotu of se the of represen tation theref ore , t h at the Premier woul d b e pre pared faithfully t o per f orm his duty at home, an d to of the peopl e as th e unenfranchised intelli gent population of thi s country desired and claimed. ) 1 Mr. ppl a A u s. W. KINGLAKE, on rising to spe in k, m w ( A received with tremendo us app l ause. He sa id — Gentlemen, it sounds natural, I thi n k , that atthis time my hon. colleague and myself should, in some oaliss way or other, have an opportunity of me e ti ng our constituents. We might, indeed, hate visited you at your own homes ; but as that would look rather too much like canvassing, it has seemed to us that we should not do amiss if, instead of going to you, we took the liberty of asking you to come and pay a visit to us. (Laughter, and hear, hear.) When last we met in this hall we met here to hear an announcement from the Mayor —au announce ment of the state of the poll. Well, we then knew, gentlemen, what had become of the Tories of this borough. (Laughter and applause.) We did not know what had become of the Tories in England generally, but the result was that we were placed, when we came to meet again in London, in a much smaller majority than we had hoped for. However, gentlemen, when Parliament met, and when the necessary forms had been gone through, we pro ceeded to do that which I think it was your wish we should do—viz., to turn out the Tory Govern ment. (Loud cheers.) The result of the dissolution was in a great measure to destroy the legislative year, because, as you all know, w hen a dissolution takes place several weeks are consumed in the pro cess which then ensues, and when a change of Go vernment takes place anotherloss of time is inflicted upon the country. Consequently, there was very little time left for legislation. However, we had some of our combats. Upon the Endowed Schools Bill we had a large majority against our opponents, and I am glad to say that on the great question of church rates we assembled as many as 263 against 193—(applause)—so that I am pleased to be able to say that, although the political majority in this House of Commons is not sogreat as we might have hoped, still there is no symptom, as far as I could judge, of there being any intention on the part of the House of Commons to return to anything like religious in tolerance. (Hear, hear.) Before the House of Com mons separated for the recess I had occasion to take a step which I hope is ono you will not disapprove. In the month of August last there was a question as to the assembling of a Congress, and, as my hon. colleague has just told you, we are now receiving the intelligence that a Congress is in point of fact about to meet in Paris. A member of the House of Commons, Lord Elcho, was of opinion that the Government ought not, under any circum stances, to go into a Congress. The Government, on the contrary, was, I thought, somewhat too anxious to hurry into a Congress without stipulat ing for proper conditions. (Hear.) When Lord Elcho brought forward his motion, which if carried would have had the effect of absolutely preventing the Ministers from going into a Congress, they were anxious to meet him with a direct negative, and the result of that would have been that they would have got the opinion of the House of Com mons in favour of their going into a Congress in, as I thought, a somewhat heedless, manner. I there fore took the liberty of moving what is called the previous question—the meaning of which is, that I asked the House of Commons not to decide either for Lord Elcho or for the Government, but to leave the responsibility of determining the question of a Congress upon the shoulders of the Ministers. And, gentlemen, I am happy to say that I suc• ceeded in carrying the previous question. (Cheers.) I supported the motion by urging it upon her Ma jesty's Ministers that it was their bounden duty to refuse to go into a Congress, unless they should obtain a distinct stipulation that no extraneous force should be used in Italy in order to put down the free Governments which had been formed in that country. (Loud applause.) I saw with great delight that when Lord John Russell, Minister for Foreign Affairs, addressed an as sembly in the town of Aberdeen he was able to say that Ministers had arrived exactly at that conclusion. (Hear, hear.) He there told the assembled people that, although England would probably be persuaded to go into a congress, she never would be persuaded to go into a congress except upon the distinct understanding that force should not be applied in order to put down the free people of Italy. (Loud cheers.) I rejoice in being able to state that fer the course I then took in the House of Commons I have received the thanks of one of the best and truest patriots Italy ever pos sessed— (hear, hear)—l have received from Italy, I rejoice to say, the thanks of General Garibaldi. (Continued cheering.) Now, gentlemen, I entirely concur in all that my hon. friend Colonel Tynte has said upon the subject of reform, but I . have so great a desire to address you upon another subject that, if you will permit me, I will pass on to the question which is occupying our minds so greatly at this period. We cannot conceal from ourselves that a great cloud is overcasting our political prospects. The country at this moment is presenting, as I think, a most extraordinary speassis. On the one hand, there are her Majesty's Ministers assuring us that we are living in a state of perfect peace and perfect and,o m n a the it o y w the i r th all hand, the Governments thepeop leof E u o Eu rope; and, lanudropate.e; arming as though we were on the verge of a war. Well, this is a very extraordinary state of things to contemplate, and with your permission I will endea vour to giye you the view which I take of the circum stances in which the country is now placed with re gard to this question. Som e gent l emen i n address ing public meetings have spoken as if the exertions the country is now making in the way of armament were merely against enemies in general, and they have shrunk from saying against whom these pre parations are being made. Ido not think that is a course worthy of the candour of the public men of England. (Hoar, hear.) te. distinctly.anxiety All that I say I shall ourselvessay present moment is not founded upon any fear of of the country at the th a a n t d or any other country in Europe x P e r e u p s t s ia, the Russia, country of France. (Hear, hear.) I want to know what this is all about. (Hear, hear.) A few years ago the notion of a war between England and France, or even of a quarrel, would have been thought almost as extraordinary as the notion of a war lsetween Bath and Bristol. I wish to explain to you what my conviction is concerning the circumstances under whi c h t hi s great c h ange has occurred. I think it, gentlemen, of great im portance that we should look at thi s ma tt er calmly and dispassionately, for depend upon it that if you allow yourselves to be forced into violent exertions by anything like false apprehensi ons there will be a reaction, and y ou w ill return into IL state of fancied security which will b e more dan gerous and more prejudicial than the too exoited state into which you may bo led by false views. (Hear, hear.) It has happened to me, I think I ma y say, to know something . of th e prop l o o f F rence ; to know something of the army of France ; and to know a little, mostly, of co urse, b y rea di ng, an d partly by a little personal acquaintance in old times, of the Emperor of the French. Now, gentle men, the people of France, we all know, are a proud and brave people, who would rise lik e one man t o avenge anything like an injury or insult to that great country. On the other hand, there are a great many people in France who would take a good deal of pleasure in hearing of the successes of a short and triumphant war. This is the case i n most countr i es. But upon the whole I believe the mass of the popu lation of France are an industrious and peaceful people. (Hear, hear.) You may have seen the other day a curious anecdote in the newspapers, which I do not advert to merely because it is an anecdote, but because I really and t ru l y t hi n k t h at it was a good illustration of the c h aracter o f t h e French people. It was said that a peasant pre sented to the Emperor a large tu reen o f —what do you think ?—of turnip soup—(laughter)—and he presented this turnip soup with a request that his son might be let off serving in the army. Now, I do not think the turnip soup would b e very goo d stuff to live upon, and still less to fight upon—(loud laughter)—but still I think that humble gift of the French peasant and that simple request which he made to the Emperor of the French w ere a t rue illustration of the great majority of the F r ench people. They want to live in peace and enjoy the humble food to which they are accustomed, and not to be called upon to serve in f ore i gn war s. That, I believe, to be the feeling of the French people. Then, if we go to the army, no doubt there are there severalcorps of men of very brave and en terprising character—we speak of them mostly as the Zouaves,—men who enter the service a s volun teers, who are as brave as tigers ; no doubt, they are ambitious people, and would be disposed, as many good troops are, to go to war if ever an op portunity offered. But when you come to look at the great bulk of the French army—when you come to look at the troops of the line, you find there exactly the peasant class of whom I have been speaking; You go back to the poor humble pea sant of the turnip soup , and they are m i en, as far as I am able to judge, as harmless and inoffensive, if only let alone, as are to be found in Europe. I have passed a good deal of time with the French army; I have been with them in the bivouac, I have been with them on board ship. I have seen them in almost all situations you can see troops, and I think I can undertake to say, whatever the Zouaves and crack regiments may be, that a more harmless and inoffensive body of men than the troops of the line is hardly to be found perhaps anywhere in Europe. (Hear, hear.) So much for the people and the army. I now come to the French Emperor; The French Emperor was a guest in this country ; he has a friendly feeling towards England; he has always been a friendly ally to this country—(cheers) —and at present he has no quarrel with us. (Hear, hear.) I have come to this, that the French people are generally speaking peaceful, that the army is not especially warlike, and that the French Emperor is what I have just described. Now, why is it, I ask, that we are all in a state of anxiety ? I proceed to tell you. I tell you that the cause of our anxiety is this—that the government of France is centred in one man. (Hear, hear.) All the resources of 37,000,000 of a warlike people are centred not in a Parliament, not in a Council of State, not even in that crop of states men which we are accustomed to call a Ministry, but in one man. That is the circumstance which in my mind makes all the difference with regard to the safety of Franco as our neighbour: If the Go vernment of France were vested in a Parliament, or in an ordinarily organised Council of State, we should know that a body of that kind would be pur suing the interests of France, and unless it should be for the interests of France to go to war with us we might safely rely upon it that peace would con tinue, and, at all events, we should be sure that we should have due notice of the change, for it would be impossible that in a day, a week, or a month an ordinarily organised Council of State, such as France possessed before the last Revolution, could suddenly pass from a state of perfect amity to a state of hos tility with England. (Applause.) But in the state of things which actually exists you have the vast army of France, the enormous pecuniary resources of France, and even the commercial navy of Franco, all placed under the power of one human being. The Emperor of the French not only commands all the armies of France, not only commands the navy of France, but he has the power of marching almost the whole of the commercial navy of France— marching them like soldiers, to serve in the mili tary navy of the country ; and we all know, also, that 'he has succeeded in inventing a financial sys tem which enables him to borrow the earnings of the country, and to raise almost any amount of money at a very short notice, and without the inter vention of the ordinary capitalists who used to be employed for purposes of that sort. It comes to this—that you have sitting, as it were, in his library a thoughtful man who is in the habit of keeping his own counsel—a man who pores over books relating to battles and wars. 1 recollect he told me once that he was engaged in writing a history of all the battles that had ever been fought. There he sits alone in his library, sur rounded by books of this description, surrounded by plans and designs of all contrivances which human ingenuity has invented to destroy human life, and commanding at the same time the resources of which I have endeavoured to give you some con ception. Well, then, it is very evident that this man is a dangerous neighbour. (Hear.) Any medical man will tell you that, however friendly his feelings may be to-day a mere fit of the gout or of indigestion may convert him into an enemy to morrow. Your security, if you rest it upon the French, must repose upon the will of ono man. Will you trust it to the good-will of one man ? (Cries of " No.") We must test the Emperor by his words partly, and by his acts. I hear to day that some gentlemen of Liverpool have taken upon themselves to put a question to the Emperor of the French, pnd have asked him to tell them at once what his real intentions are. (Laughter.) I must say the answer of the Emperor has in it a good deal of dry humour. He tells them that they must be very much afraid, or very confident. They must be very much afraid if they imagine such a thing was possible, and they must be very confident, indeed, if they imagine they could place any great reliance on any answer he might choose to give them. (Hear, hear.) How it could have entered their minds that they could draw from the Emperor what he would not give to her Majesty's Secretary of State is a thing that somewhat passes my comprehension. (Hear, hear.) lam willing to say that the answer he gave is partly truthful. He says he has always been a faithful ally of this country. I say so too; but what would that amount to if any circum stance leading to a quarrel should happen to arise ? What we must look to is not the words of the Emperor of the French, or of any living Prince, but to his acts. (Cheers.) The acts of the Emperor of the French are of this kind :—He has surrounded himself with so vast an army, under the name of a peace establishment, that at a few weeks' notice he can attack, and victoriously attack, one of the greatest military empires in the world. That is how hestands in regard to his land force. Well, you may say that he assembles this land force for the purpose of attacking Austria, Prussia, or some continental States, or even for the purpose of keep ing • down his own people at home. But against whom is he making his great naval preparations 2 (Hear, hear.) For what purpose is he busily en gaged in preparing the coast fortifications of France ? (Hear, hear.) Why all the world knows that there is no country against which the naval preparations of France can be directed except Eng land. I have received intelligence only within a few days which shows me that the Emperor has no Minister—that he does not allow Ministers to make a remonstrance to him of the most respectful kind. Then it comes to this, that you have one man, with the vast resources of 35,000,000 of people, without any Minister, governing alone, with this enormous power—not quarrelling with you, he is much wiser than that ; but preparing for the eventuality of war. I say that if we were to remain perfectly passive in this state of things we should be mad men or idiots. (Hear, hear.) You will ask me, how long is this state of things to last ? When is there to be an end of all this ? When is there to be a ter mination of this miserable state of things, which brings two European countries into the wretched condition of perpetually arming against each other ? I can only answer that, in my opinion, the end of it will be in the day when it shall please France to return to Parliamentary Go vernment. (Cheers.) France is a country full of wise and eloquent men, full of men perfectly capable of understanding the interests of France ; and on the day when France ceases to have what I must call a revolutionary Government—for it is a Government founded upon a revolution and upon a confiscation of the rights of the people,—when the revolutionary Government shall cease and Franco shall again enjoy a free Parliament and a free press, then there will be an end of all this miserable rivalry which sets us arming one against another. (Prolonged cheering.) In the meantime we must prepare for war. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) Now, let me ask you what are the ways in which a fatal blow may be struck against England. In my judgment there are two ways. England, as you know, is dependent for her absolute existence upon the free transit of the seas. Most of you are aware that we are not a people who live upon our own ground like peasants in a remote country, but wo are people who live, as it were, upon the commerce of the world ; and if for one year, or even for two months, England were debarred the free use of the seas the whole country would be thrown into a state of convulsion frightful to contemplate. The notion of being excluded from the use of the seas is not altogether so chimerical as many in this country may really suppose, because in the last Russian war, which lasted two years, we excluded Russia from the use of the seas during the whole of that time, so that she could not send a cock boat to sea. Luckily for her, she was a country dependent upon agricultural industry, an fl was not absolutely ruined by it, though she suffered intensely. If we were in that situation for two weeks the results would be dreadful. It is, therefore, of absolute necessity that England should be strong at sea. Now, we desire no sort of supre macy upon the seas in time of peace. We have long abandoned all those absurd notions that an English vessel is entitled to make a foreign ship lower her topsails in the Channel, and all customs of that kind. We desire no more privileges on the high seas in time of peace than the humblest State in Europe; but let there come a time of war, and then we must still have the free passage of the seas. And to whom is given the free passage of the seas ? Why, gentlemen, in time of war the free passage of the seas can be given only to the strongest—(continued cheering)—and England must make up her mind to be the strongest at sea, or she will perish in the way I have described. (Hear, hear.) Therefore, gentlemen, I give great credit—although he is my political opponent—to Sir John Pakington, the late First Lord of the Ad miralty, for the great exertions he made in order to bring the British fleet to something like a condi tion worthy of England. (Hear, hear.) The other blow which may be by possibility struck against this country is by means of invasion. The possi bility of an invasion does not altogether depend upon the supremacy of the seas, because, as many of you know, the old Emperor, the first Napoleon, laid his plan for the invasion of England upon the supposition that he should be able to make the attempt and to land here with an im mense forcs, if only he could be master of the Channel for 24 hours; and naval men will tell you, especially since the application of steam power,that although England may be, as I trust she ever will be, the strongest at sea, it still may be possible in i)7.7 7 EWSPAPER "" . e* _ 4:444* - • .44/4; , , IQ - FRENCII C0.211.3.1.ERCA _ PARS, =Monday.—Confidence has beeNsincaat • ss _ . ; ;o. restored in commercial circles within the last few 4111 11 " , days. The circular of M. Billault, recommending moderati on t o the French press, has produced an excellent effect, and the announcement of a Euro ! pean Congress has in some measure calmed the fear of disturbances in Central Italy. In the meantime, the purchases made for consumption at this season of the year had given increased activity to traffic in the seaports and in the manufacturing towns. This movement, however, may be regarded as a pre lude to rather than as a complete revival of trade. It is nevertheless a certain security to manufacturers and shopkeepers that better times arc coining. There is a good demand at Mulhouse for cotton thread and cloths; and prices are well maintained. The manufacturers of Rouen and other Norman towns are busy executing orders on hand. The late sales by auction at Rouen and Havre were well attended by buyers. Adviecs from Marseilles state that there is not much business doing there. An announcement, however, that the Emperor of Mo rocco had permitted the free exportation of wool had created a certain animation. The silk trade is at present dull in Lyons, and the manufacturers are engaged in organising; a system to improve their condition. They propose to create a large joint-stock capital by subscription, to build large stores for the reception of raw silk, by which means they expect to compete with England in the importation of that article. With a sufficient supply of silk to be dis posed of by periodical public sales they rely on the superiority of their manufactures to defy competi tion. At present they are depending on casual orders from Italy and the United States, and the si c do o l i eb i s .r e i ql Theui a e ti n t c ebae beet-root t s c;sr t i h ntni a ot t ns a nag g sa r rm e a ti t rgah number of looms are i e ' x r p a e n e e t e ed is not in when one considers the vast capital employed in the manufacture of that article, and the improvements introduced in machinery. It may be remarked that the consumption of sugar in France is not one half so much as in England, where the population is much less. This is another proof of the unwise sYstem which prevails in the arrangement of the duties—the tax being double what it is in Eng land. In the United States, with a population of only 25,000,000 inhabitants, the consumption of sugar annually is 431,000 tons, while in France it is only 180,000 tuns. It is clear, therefore, that the excessive duty imposed on sugar in France is inju rious to the exchequer, the manufacturer, the colo nial proprietor, but above all to the people. The ironmasters are not complaining as they were some time since. They even expect a prosperous season, relying on the vast line of railways yet to be com pleted to keep them actively employed. If the plans of the various railwa companies b e accomp li s h e d 1,400 kilo me t res will' be in use by the end of the next year, wit as many more to be completed in the following years. There is not much to be said about the corn trade. The depression in prices, which some days back we produced simultaneously in various markets throughout France, has had no influence on speculators, holders of wheat not being intimidated nor buyers more numerous. The future rise or fall of prices will be regulated by the quan tity of wheat received from corn-growing coun tries, and by the amount of old wheat held over by the French farmers since last year. The approach of the rent day at the close of the year may pro bably force many farmers to bring their corn to market, and thus produce a temporary fall in prices. The Paris corn-market was quiet last week. On Wednesday the farmers held firm, and many of them brought home their samples rather than sub mit to a reduction of the prices of the preceding week. Nevertheless a reduction was effected of from 75c to if the sack of 120 kilogrammes. Choice samples did not exceed 32f, first quality 31f and 311 50c, other qualities 28f. to' 30f. Wheat pur chased for speculation experienced a greater re duction, there being a considerable number of sel lers in the market. Montereau wheat was of at 30f. the 120 kilogrammes ; Beane° 30f 50c ; Vendome 291'. 50e to 30f. Although the price of bread has been raised 2c the kilogramme, the bakers have shown very little inclination to purchase wheat ; they refused to buy even at a reduction of if the sack. Flour of the four marks fell to 56f the sack of 157 kilogrammes for immediate delivery ; for January and February, 57f 50c ; March, 61f ; and April, 61f 50e. The accounts received from the provincial markets yesterday caused a considerable rise in the Paris flour market last evening. Several bargains were concluded in flour of the four marks at 58f the sack for delivery during the present • month ; January, 59f ; February, 59f 50c. Oats were more offered in the Paris market last week. Black oats of the best quality were sold at 27f the 150 kilogrammes, to be delivered outside of Paris. Beauce and Brie, first quality, 25f 50e to 26f, and ordinary, 24f 50c to 25f. Rye was less in demand last week than the preceding—farmers, however, did not press sales. They held to 17f 85c the 100 kilogrammes. Barley was likewise less in demand. Champagne was firm at 21f the 100 ki!logrammes. Other qualities at from 19f to 20f. The telegraph has supplied us with the prices of the provincial markets held yesterday: —" Arras—Market less abundantly supplied than the last. Wheat in demand at a rise of 50c the hectolitre ; prices 16f to 22f. Chartres—A smaller market than the previous one. Wheat bought up quickly at an advance of 59c the hectolitre. Oats more firm. Dijon—An ordinary market—quick sale—prices without variation, but well maintained. Marseilles—Affairs dull. Irka wheat, best quality, 301 for delivery ; African, 33150 c ; Roumelia, 25f 73c ; Danube, 29f. Metz-1,334 hectolitres wheat sold at an average of 321 88c, being a fall of 44c the 100 kilogrammes. Orleans—A large market, with more firmness in prices, and a greater amount of business transacted. Wheat, 18f to 20f the hec tolitre. St. Laurent les Macon—A small market of wheat ; prices well maintained, at 24f to 24f 50c the 100 kilogrammes." There has not been much business transacted in the Paris oil market last week. Rape oil in cask is quoted at 93f 50e, the 100 kilogrammes, being a fall:of if since the pre ceding week. Linseed oil is firm, at f rom 91f t o 92f. Superfine olive has risen from 270 f to 275 f the kilogrammes. Rapeseed is dull of sale at 34f 50e, the 100 kilogrammes. Wine of the last vintage in good condition is sought for by the retailers in Paris, and prices are well maintained. Old wines are in excellent de mand, without any change in princes, except at Nantes, where a a slight fall is noticed. Prices are extremely firm at Bordeaux, and it is difficult, if not impossible, to induce the wine-growers to make the slightest reduction. The most ordinary Bor deaux wine, of the growth of the year 1858, can not be bought at less than 650 f the tun. 'Wines of the first quality are worth 90f the cask of 200 litres at Chateauroux ; second quality, 80f ; and third quality, 601. At the last fair of Issondun, wine of very ordinary quality was sold at from 60f to 64f the cask of 200 litres; 500 casks of wine of the last vintage were sold at prices varying from 64f to 71f. Old wines were very scarce, and sold for 801. The demand for wine is not brisk at Nantes, and good wine of the present year may be bought at lf and 2f the hectolitre less thsn immediately after the vintage. Wines are gradually rising in value in the Maconnais, and the Beaujolais. New wines are worth from 80f to 120 f the tun of 214 litres, ac cording to quality. The wines of the last vintage pricesare linpro will be excellent. The be accounted for by tbeg mentionednnii quality being price v q ii n ig o , ted an s d -a , r w y it l l i t ttl a e ge irom those already any difference may of beetroot spirit has declined from 103 f to 99f the inferior or superior. The hectolitre. Montpellier is quoted at 130 f. a particular time and at a particular part that her rival may have the command of a portion of the Channel, and the comriand of a portion of the Channel for 24 hours, as the old Emperor put it, would be enough to make an invasion possible. Tell, if it is not an impossibility, I ask you how it is to be met if it does come to pass. Why, gentle men, all England has answered the question. The Emperor of the French came over here as our ally and our guest, and he saw the reception which a free people was able to give to an allied Sovereign towards whom they bore good-will. If it should I ever be his mission, or his destiny, as he would perhaps call it, to come here as an invader, then I he wilt see, if I mistake not, what kind of a recep tion a free people can give give to an enemy who dares to invade their shores. (Protracted cheering.) I have great faith in our army, and no on.e can be more impelled by a thousand circumstances than I am to look with affection and admiration to the achievements of that brilliant force. The invader, whoever he may be, will hear something of our army ; but if I mistake not, should he ever touch the beach he will hear something of the volunteer artillery—(cheers)--and if he comes a little further, and gets into our turnpike roads and our lanes, and comes to our homesteads to help himself to our hay, or to our turnip fields to make a meal of the soup we were talking about—(laughter)—he will hear something likewise of our rifle volunteers. (Great applause.) I do not know whether it enters into the plan of any French general, in the event of such an enterprise, to come to Bridgewater. (Laughter.) I should be ashamed of myself if I professed to tell any limited assembly of Englishmen _that they were better and brtiver than any other set of men ; but I am entitled to say that there are diffe rences between different portions of the population of England which are in many respects remark. able, and the one speciality I have observed in the people of Bridgewater is this—that they are always quick in whatever they do. (Laughter and loud cheers.) It does so happen in military affairs that it is quickness that wins the day. (Continued cheers and laughter.) The Emperor of the French knows that when he was seeking to encroach against England, when he was seeking to persuade us to adopt laws which he recommended to us, the first, or almost the first town in England which pe titioned against any such conduct was the borough of Bridgewater. (Great applause.) That quick ness which you s h owe d i n po li t i cs, you w ill , I trust, manifest in the field if the troublous time should come, to render it necessary for you to bring out your rifles. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) I must say that I look at this moment throughout the country with the greatest admiration, sympathy, and ap proval, founded upon two entirely distinct grounds. I admire it as an admirable and magnificent demon stration of the high and proud, and brave spirit of this conntry at the notion of its being threatened by an invader ; but I also admire it as a demon stration against the policy of standing armies. (Cheers.) You were threatened with an invasion of some 300,000 or 400,000 men, and you have the manfulnesss not to be frightened into the folly of attempting to hire 300,000 or 400,000 mercenaries to meet them. (Hear, hear.) You all say you will do what you can to make your small but excellent army as perfect as possible. You will give it all the appliances which humun ingenuity can contrive t 3 make it perfect. You will, if necessary, augment it in moderation—but if it is a question of giving it auxiliaries in great force, if it is a question of giving it auxiliaries by tens of thousands, or hun dreds of thousands even, to meet any great danger, then you all say you will do the work yourselves. (Prolonged cheering.) I think I have disclosed to you the views which I take of the circumstances in which we are placed. You will have collected from my observations that our danger does not arise from any hostility on the part of the French people, that it does not arise from any ferocity on the part of the French army, that it does not arise from any un friendly feeling on the part of the French Empe ror, but that it does arise from the fact that a revolutionary Government is existing in France, which has armed one man in the name of an Em peror, whom I would rather call a Dictator, with a power so great that until that power is moderated, as all power ought to be, no neighbour can bo entirely safe. (Continued applause.) Gentlemen, I have now only to thank you for the kindness with which you have heard me, and if there are any sub jects I have failed to advert to I hope you will attri bute it to the anxiety I felt to address you upon the one which seems to absorb all the interests of the day. (Immense cheering.) On the proposition of Mr. HENRY LOVIBOND, seconded by Mr. T. 0. 11. REED, a vote of thanks was enthusiastically accorded to Col. Tynte and Mr. Kinglake for their services in Parliament and for their speeches and attendance that evening. COURT OF ALDERMEN. A Court of Aldermen was held yesterday at Guildhall, the Lord Mayor presiding. TIIE LONDON RIFLE BRIGADE. -- Mr. Alderman ROSE (in the absenco of Mr. Al derman Wire, from illness, arising from an acci dental fall) presented a petition, signed by nearly 500 members of the London Rifle Brigade, praying that the Court would give its consent to the ap pointment of Capt. George Montagu Hicks (of her Majesty's 41st Regiment) to be lieutenant-colonel of the brigade. Air. HOPKINSON, a member of the brigade, ap peared at the bar of the Court in uniform, accom panied by a number of his comrades, to support the prayer of the petition. He said that the general wish of the brigade, who had to some extent sacri ficed their business, and entirely sacrificed their pleasures, for the purpose of devoting themselves earnestly to the defence of their country, was that ) their endeavours might result in no ignoble end. • I To avoid such a result they felt it necessary that their lieutenant-colonel should be a man who united military abilities with courtesy, patience, forbear ance, perseverance, and an insight into character; and such a man they believed was to be found in Captain Hicks, who had been selected by the Coun cil of the Brigade for recommendation to the Court of Lieutenancy. That Court, however, no doubt with great propriety, had thought it expedient that before they confirmed the appointment the Court of Aldermen should be asked to give their sanction, since Captain Hicks, as Governor of Whitecross street Prison, must be regarded as their servant. The brigade, therefore, now respectfully asked that that sanction might be given, for Captain Hicks had already endeared himself to them, and they felt that under his instruction and superintendence their labours to perfect themselves in military discipline would not be in vain. They were now a body of 000 men, and would soon be 700. They were thoroughly in earnest in their devotion to military duties. but, lie regretted to say, although ho did not wish to • make a parade of such matters, that the London Rifle Brigade, from whom so much had been expected, and upon whom the public eye had so long been fixed, were already smarting under sore grievances, and sin cerely did they hope that the Court of Aldermen would show their sympathy by at least giving their consent that the man of their choice—Captain George Montagu Hicks—should be their lieutenant colonel. ( Applause.) Mr. Alderman ALLEN (captain elect of the bri gade)—As there may be some discussion on this subject, I move that strangers do withdraw. (General cries of "No, no.") The LORD MA YOR—Do you wish to press that ? Mr. Alderman ALLEN—Yes, I do. The LORD MAYOR —ls the motion seconded ? Sir H. MUGGERIDGE—Yes, I second it. Several Aldermen—No, no; it is quite unne• cessary. Mr. Alderman CUBITT—I think, my lord, it will be better, if there is to be a discu s si on , th a t th e court should be cleared. (Hear, hear, and "No, no.") The Town Clerk—Notice is taken that strangers are present. Strangers must withdraw. The court was cleared accordingly, and the dis cussion proceeded with closed doors for three quarters of an hour, when strangers were re admitted. The RECORDER, then addressing the deputation, said—l am desired by the Lord Mayor to read to you the following resolution, which has been agreed to by the Court :—" That this Court sees no objec tion to Captain Hicks's accepting the appointment, provided his sureties assent and are willing to con tinue their li a bili ty under their bond ; and it has been likewise resolved that a copy of this resolu tion be forwarded to the Court of Lieutenancy." The deputation then thanked the Court and withdrew, evidently well pleased at having suc ceeded in. securing Captain Hicksas their lieutenant colonel. TILE TURNOUT AT STALYBRIDGE.—This turnout is over, and all the hands have gone in, an agree men t satis factory to master and workpeople having been come to. --• MURDER OF A SOLDIER AT GOSPORT. ---John. Connell, a private in the Waterford Militia Artillery, sta tioned in the Ilaslar Barracks, was committed on the coro ner's warrant to Winchester Gaol yesterday, to take his trial on a charge of having wilfully murdered Michael O'Brien, a private in the same regiment, in a row, which occurred in the barrack yard on Friday night, the 25th ult. It appeared in evidence that Connell and deceased (who died from the effects of a blow on the head) had been fighting, and Con nell was proved to have taken a poker from one of the bar rack rooms on the night of the murder ; and the hospital sentry, stationed about 50 yards from the spot where the occurrence took place, heard some one say, " He has a poker," but could not recognise the voice.
