In anwer to other questions Mr. ROEBUCK said as far as regarded the Mine Law he certainly would not support it. (Cheers.) Any proposal by Act of Parliathent to make men temperate was a mistake, and would cause unconditional mischief. (" Prove it.") He might do so, but not now. The licensed victuallers had waited on him to urge the evils of the system of licenses. it was a very difficult question, and he wished information upon it. If the Chancellor of the Exchequer should take the course that was expected he won'd propose a select committee on the subject. Mr. CLEGG asked if it would be a fair inquiry, cr. such as Mr. Berkeley made. Mr. ROEBUCK was in favour of full and fair in quiry.

In commencing the proceedings he said, — Gentlemen, I have the honour to introduce to you our respected members, John Arthur Roebuck and George Hadfield, who will address you on the pre-' sent state of political affairs, and, I have not the slightast doubt, much valuable information will be elicited, that will lead to measures of an important nature during the ensuing session of Parliament. (Hear, hear.) I have to request that you will give that patient attention which the interest and merit of the several subjects reqiiire. Withoiit saying Ty more I will introduce to you Mr. Roebuck , who will speak for himself. (Cheers.) 1 Mr. ROEBUCK, on rising to address the meeting, as received with great applause, and when silence Nias restored he said :—Mr. Mayor,—We are met, SFr, at present upon a momentous question, and I think for a most important object. It has been told u in various ways that her Majesty's present Mini sers intend to propound to Parliament a plan for tie reform of the House of Commons. You, Sir, have asked _us .to come down, as -I suppose, to tell our views about this proposed reform--=•what we think it ought.to be, and then to state to you what afe our opinions with respect to the chance of your elver getting it. (A, laugh.) Now then, before I pro c ed to discuss these two points, .I must beg a calm a d a favourable consideration, for it so happens, I b lieve, that I shall say some things that may not bp palatable to everybody here. (Hear.) It has always been my custom through life, and I thi r ik s with you, to speak out my mind openly. I hive always thought that the safest policy was the most honest one. (Hear, hear.) . I have always, when dealing with my fellow-countrymen, t ld them what my opinions are. If, then, it should 1 s happen that I should say things to-day which 1 ay not be palatable to you all, I cannot help it. ( laugh.) I will tell you what I think.. If you n't like it I shall be sorry, but I cannot help it. ( laugh.) It has been told to me—l have heard it s id that my hon. colleague and myself are to come wn here to take your instructions. Now, that is tmy opinion. (Hear.) lam here respectfully to ar anything you can say ; . but when you have s id your say, it is my own conscience and my own i tellect that must decide upon my own course of nduct. With these preliminary remarks I will woceed at once to speak about the proposed reform. ( ear, hear.) Now, let us at first Understand one Other about certain great principles; and i when N e have done that, I take it that the conclusion-We ay come.to will not be very difficult of deciding, 1, d we shall not have much difference : of opinion. ...' ow, it so happens that most of the means and al) : I liances of life and of happiness depend on labour, ey are the acquisitions of labour ; but labour is lain, and every man endeavours as much as pos • • ble to escape from pain. There are, as regards this bject, two ways of proceeding—viz., to work for • ourselves, and obtain for yourselves the means of life and of happiness • or to force others to work for you. (A laugh.) And it so happens that it is the constitution of man, that he will if he can adopt the latter course. There is in man's heart a desire tp make others work for him rather than he for himself. (Hear.) In order to prevent the strong from oppressing the weak, men have combined to gether and delegated a certain degree of power to others. This power is government. But the very same peculiarity of the human mind which renders government necessary, also induces Government to take the place of the invader, and be itself the strong oppressing the weak. Therefore on must have some watchmen to watch -the ateher. :You must have somebody to protect the 1 eak against the Government: Now, then , comes tlie great question—hoW shall we attain that end .? Anbient nations did it _by the people doinr , it. ations at that time were small—at .east--thole to 'hich I am now referring. They were usually con ned within the walls of the city. The whole people rtiet together and judged in their united capacity of the conduct of the Government. But it is clear that if this were the only means in man's power there could be no great free state. (Hear, and cries of 'i Adjourn.") I hope you will not stop me now. [A scene of tremendous uproar took place, a small but noisy section in the room being resolved not to hear the lion. member unless themecting were adjourned to a larger room.] The MAYOR—I trust you will be silent while the hon. member is addressing you. (Adjourn, adjourn, and interruption.) Mr. RoEnuoKl'll go on when you'll allow me. (Adjourn, adjourn.) Mr. Councillor NADIN—I beg to move that we adjourn to the Townhead-street Temperance-hall. Mr. Councillor A. BOOTH—I move that we ad journ to the Surrey Music-hall. (No, no, and great noise.) - - Mr. W. Rtslinn, sen., here rose, and moved that they remain where they were. (Cheers,' and inter ruption.) He proposed that for this simple reason —that there was not a room in Sheffield that would accommodate all who' wanted 'to be present, and therefore Somebody Must be out. Go where they would there would not be sufficient accommodation for all, and they would, be no better off even if they did adjourn. Mr. ROEBUCK—I am in the hands of the meeting and will do anything you like. . (Cries of "Go on," and " Adjourn.") The MAYOR—Let us go where we will -not be placed at a disadvantage. (" There is plenty of room in the Surrey Music hall ; it will scat about 4,000 persons : let us go there.") . The MAYOR—I will put the question to you, whether you will remain here or adjourn? It was then put to the meeting, and an immense ' majority were for remaining where they were; but there were still cries of " Adjeurn," and interrup tion. The MAYOR—The majority must carry the day, and I call upon you to take your seats and remain. The Mayor here requested Mr. Roebuck to stand on the table and addre -s the meeting, but, The Hon. Member objected to this, and replied, " I can't and I won't." . .. . ... • Mr. Alderman H. E. HooLE now came forward, and was greeted with applause. He said—You all want to hear your members, and they are anxious for as many to hear them as possibly can. Are there people outside that want to come in P What is the state of things outside, because you are not inconveniently crowded here ? Mr. Councillor SAUNDERS—There are about 20 people outside. Alderman H. B. TIOFLE—The members will' ad journ, or do anything you wish ; but what is the use of adjourning if there is room? (" There is 'tom in the gallery for a hundied people.") Alderman H. E. HOULE then introduced Mr. Roebuck to the meeting amid great interruption. Mr. ROEBUCK—I will put this question to - you, is there a man in this room who does not hear me ? You can hear everything I say. Very well, then, if you will allow me I will to on. (" Go on.") . I cannot proceed if you talk, and what is more, I won't. (Laughter and commotion.) When you are quiet I will go on, but I won't before. (Renewed uproar.) Be quiet and hear me. If you will be quiet I will proceed. I wa s stating—(uproar.) I shall not proceed while there is a row. (Continued interruption.) Now, I want to know if you will allow me to go on, because if you will not I'll take up my hat and go. (Great uproar.) Mr. Roebuck, I whose remarks hadbeen utteredwitlimuch warmth, then took up his hat as if with the intention •of leaving the room. The MAYOR interposed, and besought the meet ing to give Mr. Roebuck a hearing. Mr. HARVEY—Don't allow yourmember to retire from the meeting, and so show your unfitness for the franchise. (Hear, and hisses.) If Mr. Roebuck is_to retire, shame to the men who won't hear him ! - Mr. RoEBUCK—Now, sir, I will go on. (Renewed uproar from the centre of the room, caused by a knot of men who were intent upon an adjournment.) The MA - iron—Gentlemen, for goodness' sake be quiet. (Uproar.) . Various other attempts were made to restore order, but all in vain. The weak state of Mr. Roe buck's health, the disgrace of refusing to hear him after he had come all the way from London, were urged as inducements to silence, but without effect. Mr. Roebuck then promised to attend another meet ing in the evening for those who could not gain admission into the room, or could not remain with comfort ; but there were about a dozen or 20 per sons in the body of the hall who were determined not to allow the meeting to proceed. ' After 40 minutes had been Wasted, Mr. Roebuck took up his hat and retired. amid cheering ; - Mr. Hadfield fol. lowed, and the Mayor dissolved the meeting. A consultation took place at the RoyafHotel, and: the crowd having gathered outside, it was eventually determinel the t another meeting should at once be held in the Temperance-hall.. This was announced to the crowd outside, -who at once went thither. Though the pooni is capable of holding from 3,000 to 4,003 persons it was filled within a few ininiites; and so great Was the pressure that the reporters, in order to reach the platform, had to climb, through _ a back -window. .The meeting was afterwards carried on without a renewal of the in terruption previously experienced. The MAYOR having. been called to the chair, introduced Mr. Roebuck, who was received with prolonged cheering. Mr. ROEBUCK, after recapitulating his fornier arguments, proceeded to say---Nowi then, the great discovery of modern statesmen has been the system of thorough representation. They have said, and we have discOvered, that people meeting together - choose their representatives, those representatives being made the watchers of the Government, and by. that Means' you attain all you can have by good go. vernment. They would watch the Government, and they Would take oare that the - Government did not oppress the weak, as was the .nature of mankind to (10- 7 -to make the weak work for them. But here came in again a difficulty. How shoUld yon Watch the representatives of the people ? There is only one meaner To. make their office of a certain dura- , tion,qo make them to .be elected for a certain time, and then to return back again, so that you may put their deserts to the test by either re-elect ing or discharging them. The elective body is so narrow as knot to represent the whole people's in terests; yet the elective body will have the power to tyrannise over the others. Therefore the ques tion is, how we shall make the elective body repre sent the, whole people. lam now about to addiess myself to a point upon which I very much believe that a great number of you won't agree with me. But, as I said at the Town-hall, I beg your kind forbearance. I speak out straightforward what_ I Mean. may be wrong. NoW, here lam very often told—recollect, the point we are. upon is to make the electors represent the interests of the Whole people,_ because without that they would not. be an efficient check upon the representatives, who arc -a cheekup_on the Government—l am very - often told that every man has ,an inalienable right to electoral power. lat once tell you that 1 don't understand that language. What is the inalienable right ? Is there. any country in the world in which that power exists ? No. If there were, the people would mot be oppressed; They have not, then, as a matter of fact, that which they call their inalien able right ; or, in other words, universal suffrage, manhood suffrage, or the other terms they give it. What do you'mean by an inalienable right? My object in the matter is to make the constituent body. fairly,.represent the whole people, because I say that for the government of mankind it is requisite it should be so. But when you tell me that a man has the inalienable right, I at once tell . you I don't, understand it. lam going to tell_ you what I be lieve is necessary to make the'body of -electors to represent the interests of the community. at large. Here again is a difficulty in understanding this ina lienable right, for one-half of tho - human race are women. How are they to becoihe an, elective body ? This is a matter that has often been discussed, and I must say that, owing everything as I do to women, for their happiness and our own I would certainly relieve them from the trouble of polities. By stat ing this I make at once a great defalcation from the whole of the human race. But, mark you, if you talk about ,the inalienable right, it must be for the women as well as men. Again, when shall people have the elective power ? You won't give it to a baby at four year old ? It must come ; then we'll strike off all under 21. Then you leave a large mass of the adult popnlation unrepresented. What can be done with them ? Hertofore, the electoral franchise was in the hands of a very small portion of the community. From the time of William 111, downwards the power has.been in the handS - of the landlords. When 1830 came there was a' great Reform Bill introduced by, the Whin. reformers. We all know what that Meant. It did' not extend to the. - working classes, but the working classes aided in getting it. atear.),LThey, said, and in a manner that weds me to em;—we ' kniiw we shall not 'be benefited by that Reform Bill, but they said, we will give you that which we desire for ourselves, feeling confident that by the enjoy ment of what we seek you will see the justice of giv ins- us that which we give you. I well remember that Reform - Bill. I had a hand in stirring up the people to ask for it. And they did ask for it, and so forcibly that we were on the very brink of a revolu tion to obtain it. We were saved from that out break, we were saved from the horrors of that war by the Duke of Wellington. He, by the great power lie obtained over the House of. Lords, persuaded them to yield, and You have that Reform Bill. From the time of the passing of the Reform Bill there has been a pressure on the House of Commons and a pressure on every statesman, calling for a new Reform Bill, because there is a great body of my fellow-countrymen worthy to'have a voice in the representation. I speak of the working classes. They were excluded by the Reform Bill, and depend upon it that every attempt to obtain a new reform will be an attempt in some way to give power to the working classes. But mark, me—mark me well— , there will be an imposition practised on you. There will be a large and wide increase of the suffrage. But will it affect the composition of .the House of Commons? I will tell you. The large increase of voting power will just return the same members that have been returned, and Liberal men will be returned just as they have been before. But while no other reform takes place in the constitution the House of Commons will remain just what it now is. Therefore there are two things to be considered — first, the franchise, and next the distributiox. (Hear, hear.) We ought to ascertain who are to have votes, and next the area of persons who shall return representatives to Parliament, thereby, as I believe, entirely.overturning the landed aristocracy of this country. (Cheers.) I don't blink the ques tion. There it is. (Cheers.) Now I want to know how we shall give to the working classes that which we desire. And truly I say it is for the interest of the working classes . themselves that the vagabond population should not be represented. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Roebuck ex pressed his opinion that every man living in a house rated to the poor, occupying the whole or part thereof, and registcrod.aS an occupant, ought to be endowed with the franchise. He went on—l believe the House of commons at present represents very truly the passions and feelings which are pe culiar to Englishmen. I remember making that statement once before in Sheffield, and a personwho was present asked me this pertinent question, " If you think the House of Commons represents the feelings and pasSions of the people, why do you want any reform in Parliament ?" My answer was, " They represent the feelings and passions of the people, but they don't represent the interests of the people." (Cheers.) Mr. Roebuck proceeded to eulo gise the gentry for their charity and kindly feeling and said,—But I would not allow them to remain in their present position, because it is one of temp. tation. They ought not to have the power of doing mischief, although good is in their hearts, and they would do good. I think it is utterly impossible to have squares or electoral districts. I don't think it is possible to enter into any human mind to form such a plan. I would increase the representatives of the larger towns.. Take Sheffield with her 160,000 inhabi tants, I would divide Sheffield into two, and I would give to each division of the town two mem bers. But I would take away the members from all boroughs under 10,000 inhabitants. In this way you' would get about 120 members. Then you would have to distribute them. I would giye them to the large towns and to the West Riding of York shire, which ought to have an increase of represen tatives, and also to Lancashire. What chance, is there that we shall obtain anything like this? First and foremost, there is not such a feeling on the part of the people about reform as to force on the House of Commons such a change as I have stated. I remember during; the last reform agitation people said there would be a civil war. The whole coun try was aroused ; man, woman, an 4 child could talk of nothing else. Now there is an apathy about re form, and till you can persuade tha House of Com mons that it would be dangerous to resist, you can not expect such a reform as I have propounded. Well, then, we must wait. Depend upon it that England at the present moment is better governed than any other part of the, world. I don't care where that other part is. (Cheers.) lam told to look at America. Look at America, sir. Arc there not 6,000,000'0f slaves in America, and does not the: declaration of independence of the Republic state that all men are born free ? It should have said all white men. I say, away with the nonsense, I talking to me about America. In England a, man can say pretty well what he likes, and can do what he pleases, so long as he does not interfere with his neighbovr. This is a rational. freedom: (Cheers.) But there one thingwh NI I hope for in a reformed. Parliathent. ' I Mean economical government. 13ut, before you expect a reformed Parliament, 'you must reform y ourselves. 'I don't think (venom's- Will come from £lO householders. The old Parii;-`tment had an expenditure---I was going to • say- not half so heavy as this, and since the deform Bill, or the . ;C,lO householders voted, the expenditure has increased every year. One thing I must remark as to the composition of administrations. It was fancied when the last Reform Bill was intro duced that the aristocratic portion of the 'Legisla ture would for the future have no monopoly of the governing power.' But I recollect that in the first Reform Parliament when. - Mr. •Gisborne said, " I hope now Mr. Hume, Mr. Warburton, and Mr. Grote will be members of the Government," it was received by the whipper-snappers of the aristocracy with yells of contempt. Mr. Hume you all know ; Mr. Warburton was a great man, and had all that constipated a great man. Mr. Grote has made a namifor himself, - and has added another wreath to the laurels which have been gained for England by writers. He is the historian of Greece. He was trained to government, and yet there was not a whippersnapper of the aristocracy but what turned up his nose at him. (Cheers and laughter.) But a great change has come over the House. 'We are not now, wedded to the notion , that there arc only three* men who can take the government of the cowl, try—Palmerston, Russell, and Derby. It is sup posed that amen k the 20,000,000 of Englishmen a Prime Minister cannot be foundbesides these three. When.l first went into Parliament, sanguine, full of hope, and as I fancied; studied the science of govern ment, I was shocked at what I found to be the feel ing of persons who. represented the - great northern hives of industry and the city of London. They were the representatives of the large constituencies of the country, and I always found them like what Cobbett said of Sir F. Burdett, poking his' kn ees into the back of the Prime Minister. (Laughter.) Take any locality you please. You want representa tive—vou look about and find a well-to-do man - More than 50 years of age, and you send him head hing into an assembly -of critics, the most acute, that the world . el;er saw, with feelings alive to . everything liidicrouS. The man•gets up. He makes an attempt at a speech, and is laughed at. He per haps leaves out a " h," and a shout of derision runs through the house; Down ,he sits, and his mouth is closed, for - ever. (Cheers and laughter.) .That accounts in a great, measure for what you must have all remarked, that you are not represented in the House of Commons in a way to give you the Weight you ought to have. The wealth, the in dustry, the intelligence, the acuteness of the north 4are they to be found in your representative in the House 'of 'Commons ? No. Does London, that great mart of the whole world, send members who, are an himour to the• House of Commons ? I say, no. Well, then,l 'ask, what can you possibly' expect from a refermed•House of Commens if you - do not prepare Men to go into that house capable of discharging their duty as your representatives, and not merely rich men that all their lives' have been engaged in the accumulation of wealth, and wholinew as much about gpvernment as Ido about China. (Cheers.) You must send fit men to represent you. I have observed that the great classes of the north aid turning their attention to it... They are now train ing young men up to be the equals of -the gentry who go to OXford and Cambridge—(cheers)—and when they are so they Will - step into their proper places. England will be duly repre sented, and you will have a manufactur ing population represented by educated manu• factuters—men who Can take their places by the side of any man, no , matter how great may be his name or lineage. Until you have such edu cated men as your representatives, depend upon it no Reform - Bill will be what you wish. I will now turn to another point. "Do I believe that the Re fcrm Bill will bethe greatbusiness ofthe session ?" I do not believe it will, and I will tell 'you why. Eng land started in the race of government with the great nations of Europe pretty much upon an equality. There was 'a certain degree Of freedom in all. Years went on, and fortune favoured England, but did not favour . the 'continent of -Europe. The result has been that England stands alone among the great powers of Europe as the hope of our common hunianity. DeSpotism reigns in 'Austria, France, PriiSsia, Russia, and in Italy. We are lying on the outside efEurope, and the jealous eye of eery po tentate of Europe is upon us. We have a difficulty in maintaining our position ; all the world of tyranny watches England, which is the great light of man kind. (Cheers.) Depend upon it, we are on the eve of great changes in Europe. During the disastrous year of 1848 the population of Europe rose up against these despotisms, but were so totally incapable of governing themselves, that it has ended, as you have seen in France, enlightened and great as she is, in a pitiful despotism. (Hear, hear.) With France we have been allied, and with her we are now upon good - terms. But every turn of the wheel is watched in order to do us harm. We are insulted wherever we can be. If there is a question upon which Eng: lishmen have been alive for the last half century it has been the slave trade. At last our great and friendly ally has cast in our face an insult such as England never before bore. Well, we did bear it ; and I suppose we shall hear a good deal more. But if you give .a foot you will be asked to give a yard. Stop at once. - Say,—No, we will not retreat. We have intended the good of mankind by our protec tion of the unfortunate slave, and we; will, under Providence, continue that protection, and woe be to him who attacks us. (Loud cheers.) As I came down from London to-day I watched with anxiety on my arrival here to know whether there had been an electric telegram. I was anxious because'Europe is on the eve of war. Depend upon it, our foreign re lations next year will interfere :With our domestic concerns. I therefOre entreat you not to misappre hend the doin.g.s of your representatives. I and my hon. colleague shall do all we can-to forward your views ; but they will be crossed—l do not believe he fancies so, but I am sure of it—by censiderationi of our foreign relatiomi England will find that she cannot touch pitch without being defiled. Our alliances ought to be with freedom everywhere. (Cheers.) A despot; however he may have gained his poWer, ought to be to us a despot still. With France as a people let us be in alliance. She is a iillant and great nation; and has been a light to mankind, as we have been ; but she has not an ex ample of good government. We have seen consti tutional government in France trodden out by the hard heel of an unblushing despot. Constitutional government has been put down, England has been insulted, and every poaible attempt has been made by- that despot to ally himself with the Powers of Europe, tyrannical as they are. Depend:upon it the pretence now made of aiding and assisting Italy is a mere pretence to march down his praetorian hordes upon that greet country. He will erect in the place of the eagle of Austria the eagle efFrance. I have no faith in a man who has perjury on his lips. (Cheers.) I recollect when at Cherbourg, see ing the Emperor of the French visit the Queen of England. It was a great sight. • Everything was there to excite and rouse the buoyant spirits of men. I saw that man mount the steps which led to our noble Queen's vessel, and when I saw'his perjured lips upon her hallowed cheek my blood rushed to my heart to think of that holy and good creature being defiled by the lips'of a perjured despot. (Loud cheers and huzzas.) The sight which I then beheld was a type of England. She was in alliance with this clespot,---she, the great light of mankind, whose writers, philosophers, whose mechanics, every man of us, have been working in the great cause of humanity. England is 'upon a pinnacle at which the world wonders—many admire, and still more envy. She is great because she is good. tHear.) But, depend upon it, no alliance with • foulness can be made without foulness - attaching to the ally. I say at once that rather than be the ally—the active ally of a despot' like Louis Napoleon, I would at once break away from him. (Hear.) England alone can withstand all his anger and all his power , but ' you must support your Government in that great move. If • you do that, we need not fear, though the world stood in arms against us.. I have pretty nearly .explained all I want to explain. Mark me well. I have told you that the Reform Bill will not be the great business of the session. You must be prepared forithat ; and, being prepared for that, go you steadfastly on to the great end. You have a view. (Hear.) Be determined to obtain reform, and you will obtain it. Tell your representatives what you think. I have your statement in the petition. With the petition I agree ; and, so far as it is concerned, Sheffield will be thoroughly repre sented by my hon. colleague and myself. In many other matters I fear it will be very inefficiently re presented. (The lon, gentleman resumed his seat amid loud applause.) Mr. HaDFIELD---It is not in my power to say with my hon and learned colleague that the little clique that disturbed us this evening has not dis turbed me. I must confess also that what I have just heard has placed me in a difficulty. I meant t discuss •reform ;• but we have heard a• speeehtha, will resound , throughout Eu ro p e a nd the world. Mr. Roebuck has taken a most masterly re7:ew of the eireuthstances of the case. I agree in it all with • - slight exceptions, though on• same points I diff'r q ui n a e l tion a co ipetitive speceli He is a' statearman. of 30 years' fialn him materially.- do' ot profess to stAlding i listened to in the House7 l ‘o!.C'ltf , :m . ms . a . nd • I , l t i . i r ( c a f t .( g il l . t i o n ti . t o tl n i c e o eo f i .ti i i t e r l y )e .l .s ti g o il l::l o 7 t t l o le t t f i e nies IS tlic anxiety 'of the honest and . iiidustrions classeS to be enfranchised, and that man is 'entitled to respect who by honest means obtains the power to Note. Speaking on principle, all men who 'contribute to the taxes ought to, be • enfranchised; though from policy demand is made for household suffrage, and I advise you to adhere to it. I have here a return from which it appears that, deducting the property tax, out of 60 millions of taxes paid; 35 to 40 mil lions are paid by the unrepresented people. A com paratively small amount is paid by those who assume the power of electing the representatives of the people. Is this just? (" N 0.",) Should it be continued? (" No.") Nothing can be more delusive Wan the present system of representation. We hare now probably 30 millions of people: The return of which I -shall speak shows that ,of these 30 millions only 1,200,000 are nominally electors. 'Beluctint , double entries, double qualification, &c., I do not believe the actual electors are 1,000,000. - Here, thug, you have one in six of the adult males represented, and the sooner we remedy that anomaly the better ; and even the division of, this small number of elector's :puts • a cheat upon; the people.- There are. 330 members of the House of Cominons returned by 195,000 borough electors. There are 35 boroughs-which return 70 members, and, deducting the other constituencies from the rest of the borough electors only 195,000 , are left. Thus not 200,000:electors return a majority of the House of Commons, and five sixths of the number are wholly :unrepresented. I have here a list of 22 boroughs returning 24 members, yet their united constituencies are only half the number of electors of Sheffield.• These boroughs only pay half the amount of, income-tax paid by Sheffield. Mr. Had field went on to show the insignificanee of Knares borough, Thetford, and other little boroughs as compared with the larger constituencies. He compared the Tower Hamlets and Marylebone with the Irish boroughs, showing the - immetise prepon derance of population and taxation on the part of the metropolitan boroughs. Few of. these small boroughs were free .agents„ and, - when free, were influenced. by. bribery.

But the cry -of, wolf had been raised too often. When Catholic emancipation was granted Lord Elden shed tears, and said that the sun of England had set for ever, but the stupid sun - had continued to shine more. brightly than before. (Cheers.) Free trade was granted .in defiance of predictions that the land would go out of cultivation, and yet land' vas never 'so valuable as . now, and • the landlords much had been -benefited. as ,as any other class. (Cheers.) ..Whatpeople in the world were so fit to - be trusted as the people of . England? Let them not-be judged by 20 or 30 men who had disturbed the meeting, and for what purpose he could not imagine. Let it not go abroad that that little clique were the people of Sheffield. For the true homst. working classes he . had the sincerest respect, and desired. to see their rights enlarged. Let me (said Mr. Hadfield) give reasons why the . people of England are to batrusted. In 1837 we imported to the value of 187 millions, and we• exported 146 millions, the produce of the labour of our honest working classes. These were the results of the people's labour. Surely, these men are to be trusted. Surely their interests, are the interests of the country. (Cheers.) I will never while I live cease to urge their claims. (Lou d cheers.) There are now openings for our trade unheard of. Waiving the question of the character of the ruler of France, I ask if we have not bound up with our own the interests of France ? Ilet exports and im ports are 307 millions, •:.nd if her ports were thrown open, like ours, to the commerce of the world, Eng land and France would be united by a commercial interest equal to that between England and Scot land. We bind Our colonies to us not by soldiers, but by the free governments we give them. Canada, whatever she may have done in the past, now de sires the English alliance, and-will- not leave us. Consider what is going on in an intellectual and literary way. Fourteen years ago the number of letters was 70,000,000, and they are now 504,000,000. There were 71,000,000 of stamped newspapers then, and I believe now there arc 250,000,000 of news papers annually. The periodical literature of Eng land exceeds that of all other countries. In this state of things I ain sure that any such disturbance as occurred this morning must be put down. Then, as to education. In 1851 there were 2,500,000 pupils in Sunday-schools, and 318,000 teachers, the elite of the country. The Sunday-school teachers have the confidence of every man, and ask only freely to train the children of the poor man in morals and religion. If any men deserve to be more respected than others it is those 318,000 teachers, and I think they enjoy more of the confidence of the people than any others. There is a glorious competition going on between the clergy and the dissenting ministers. My principles are known, but I rejoice 'in the labours of the pious clergy. Mr. Hadfield went on to quote some statistics as to religious in struction to show that there can be no danger in trusting the people with- the franchise, as there is amoral machinery . at work that will give security to society. Referring to the future he said there never was a time of more hopeful prospects. The -.question now to be asked (lie said) is, how can we pour on the people the blessings of cheapness and abundance ? Can we not have returns from India and our colonies far greater than were ever known before. The people of Manchester have issued a statement showing that we are paying for the slave-grown cotton of America £10,000,000 a year more than its fair marketable value, and every ounce of that cotton might be raised in India.. (Cheers.) Let roads be made and the means of irrigation be provided, and we could have 100,000,000 of produce a year from India, — and half that :would regenerate India. Joseph Hume said we never could enrich India without enriching ourselves. We desire now that the just claims of the people should be recog nised, and that their desire for economy an improvement may tell on the House of Com mons. -Are we equal. to the task which a gracious Providence has imposed upon us! The great Creator meant the fertile earth to supply the wants of all his ereasures. The only difference between myself and my hon. friend is that I desire to see this country- untrammelled with the affairs of despots—(cheers)—and that. English interests Only should be attended to. Of our debt, £500,000,000, Was incurred by the war acrainst, liberty in • France. •and £100,000,000 for the war against American independence. Let us, then, keep out of war on questions raised by despots ; let us preserve peace, and England will fulfil her destiny. (Cheers.) After paying a compliment to the order and regularity Of the meeting, he • said it was an answer to the disturbance of the morning, and he hoped the time was coining when every honest, in dustrious man, uncontaminated by crime, should possess the elective franchise. (Loud and continued cheering.) The MAYOR then announced that the members Were ready to answer questions. Mr. ABEL' HINCTICLIFFE—From the very cun ning way in which - Mr. Roebuck spoke of slavery in America, he seemed to wish you to understand that it was caused by universal suffrage. (Hoot ing and cries of " Question.") The question was, did Mr. Roebuck hold that opinion? Mr. ROEBUCK—There is no universal suffrage in America". Republican institutions are very different things from universal suffrage. I don't talk with understanding what I say. (Loud cheers.) • Mr. HISCHCLIFFE—Did you wish us to believe that it arose from Republican institutions ? Mr. ROEBUCK—I did not. I said nothing about Republican institutions. I said there was slavery in America and yet their declaration of indepen dence. In answer to Mr. Levy, Mr. ROEBUCK said he proposed that every elector disfranchised in a small borough should vote for the county. Several questions were put to Mr. Hadfield as upon to powers, to the Municipal Act, to which he replied. he had been requested to prepare a bill to abolish the pro perty qualification of town councillors , which he thought reasonable, as it was abolished for members of Parliament. He was in favour, too , of the ballot ; but he doubted. whether paupers should be p ut o n the list of burgesses,' because they w ere sub j ec t to the influence •of the overseers.

The deceased served in the Peninsula from January, 1812, to July, 1814, including the operations of the covering army during the siege of Badajoz, as a volunteer in the 79th Regiment, battle of Salamanca, capture of Madrid, battles of the PyreneeS, Nivelle, Nive, and 0 rthez, where he received a severe gunshot wound. His commission bore date Cornet, 14th of May, 1812 ; Lieutenant, 17th of September, 1813 ; Captain, 17th of May, 1821 ; and - Major, 10th o January, 1837. He had received the war medal, with four clasps, for Salamanca, Nive, Nivelle, and Orthez. • Yesterday morning the officers and men belong ing to the light infantry companies of the Chatham division of Royal Marines were drawn up on their parad - .-Pround, under the command of Lieutenant- Colonel W. H. March, for the purpose of hearing read the sentence of a court-martial which recently assembled for the trial of Private John Jeffery, 61st company, on a charge a absenting himself from the head-quarters of the division without leave. The prisoner bears the character of being one of the very. • worst men in her Majesty's service ; he has been tried by courts-martial eight times, chiefly for ab sence without leave, desertion, and making away with his regimental necessaries, and although only in the corps a comparatively short time, he has been punished by imprisonment, flogging, and brand ing with the letter " The prisoner has not done a single day's duty since the month of October,lBs7, and he has frequently declare°. that nothing shall induce hint to do it.
