SONG TO OLD CHRISTMAS. A. Hail, hail, merry Sire Thy seasons inspire The hearts of the young and the old; My breast stems to burn when 1 see thy return, Though the month of December is cold. Come, come, and make glad the hearts that are Sad. And tell us of homely delights ; Come and cheer ev'ry place with thy bonny red face, And thoroughly set us to rights. Thy approach will we meet with a jolly good treat, And many " tough yarns" will be spun, With ale, wine, and grog, and a bright burning log, Ant with dresses from MOSES and SON. I always remember, in cheerful December, E. MOSES and SON'S noted Mart ; When I purchase attire, to hail the glad Siro, Whose holidays need something smart. Ev'ry one should be deck'd, if they've any respect Fer old Father Christmas's cheer; Then hasten and start for MOSES'S Mart, - Where the best Winter dresses appear. As the season is cold, warm garments are sold, Unequall'd in Winter attire ; Whose price is so low, that all folks may show Their respect to the hearty old Sire. LIST OF PRICES.

A meeting of the central committee of this association, which has for its object the total repeal of the malt-tax, took place on Wednesday at the York Hotel, Bridge street, 131 a skfriars. Mr. W. B. LAMB, on taking the chair, announced that various communications had been received from York shire, Hampshire, Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, Oxfordshire, Nottinghamshire, and other counties, containing most gratifying accounts of the progress of the principles of the association ; and that Mr. Cheetham, of Oakham, would state to the meeting another fact, which he was sure would be equally gratifying, as showing that the Central Protection Society, which they feared would be opposed to them, were now most likely to go hand in hand with them in their struggle for a total re peal of the malt-tax.—(Loud cheers.) And so they ought; for no one could doubt that such a measure was intimately connected with protection to agricul ture.—(Hear.) Mr. CHEETHAN said, that as chairman of the Oakham Protection Society, he attended a meeting of the Central Society yesterday, in Bond-street, at which the question of a repeal of the malt-tax was fully discussed—the dis cussion having arisen out of communications from Wor cestershire and East Kent, demanding to know whether it was a question which local societies might entertain— and from all that occurred, he felt convinced that the members of the society generally were favourable to it. —(Cheers.) The Duke of Richmond, who presided, and others, thought, however, that they ought not to commit the society to a formal declaration upon the subject until they ascertained the sentiments of the local societies ; and resolutions were accordingly adopted, calling upon those societies to declare whether they were for or against a total repeal of the malt-tax, and to communicate the same to the Central Society on or before Tuesday, the 12th of January, when a meet ing of that body would be held to consider the point. He rejoiced that it was so, because from his observation of yesterday's meeting, he was satisfied that the vast majority of the local societies would embrace the oppor tunity to be thus afforded them of using their most strenuous exertions to obtain a repeal of the malt duty. As to the county of Rutland, he had no doubt whatever -that-lie would have to attend in Bond-street on January 12, and declare the general feeling of the county to be in favour of that measure. He would not trouble the meeting with the reasons for repealing the malt-tax. They were too well known. All they had to consider, therefore, was the means to be used for effecting their object. He might just remark, however, that he had learned from a calico-printer in Manchester, to whom he had written on the subject, that the increase of consumption in the article 1 of printed calico since the repeal of the duty of 3d. the square yard, over and above what might be caused by the increase of population, was absolutely enormous. This was an important fact, because there was some analogy between the manufacture of printed cotton and that of malt. The consumption of glass had also grealy increased since the duty had been removed. The manu facture of malt was just as essential as any other, and ought to be equally free.—(Hear, hear.) They should not, therefore, be satisfied with anything less than total repeal; for if the duty was reduced even to 6d., it would still carry with it all those vexatious and oppres sive restrictions which rendered the present duty so objectionable.—(Hear.) In compliance with a request from the chair, several gentlemen who had been deputed to visit particular dis. tricts, reported the result of their mission, which they stated to have been in all cases most favourable to the repeal of the malt-tax—the only opposition they had met with being from either Chartists or teetotallers, while from the tenant-farmers, labourers, and towns people, they received a most hearty and encouraging sup port. The places reported of ii ere Berkshire, by Mr. Collyer, who said that as the aristocracy were not with them they should depend entirely on the tenantry; East Sussex, by Mr. Smith; Norfolk and Suffolk, by Mr. C. H. Lattimore, who added that branch societies were being established in those counties to aid the central one, and that subscriptions were freely offered for the pur• pose; other parts of those counties by Mr. Northhouse, who expressed his gratification at finding the press of England generally favourable to their object, and warmly advocated the necessity first, and the great advantage next, of giving to the labourer a wholesome beverage like home-brewed beer, instead of the deleterious adulterated stuff he was often supplied with from the beer-shops— those nurseries of vice, and not unfrequently of poaching and incendiarism ; North Hampshire by Mr. Heriott, who did not find a dissentient voice either to the object of the association or subscriptions to support that object; Nottinghamshire by Mr. Rowley, who had found the local press generally disposed to favour the object of the association, and thought that both landowners and clergymen, if they were opposed to them, as alleged, could not remain any longer inimical to the interests of the farmer and labourer, whom a repeal of the malt-tax would obviously serve. It was impossible that the heavy labours of husbandry could be borne with advantage to the proprietary unless those engaged in them received suffi • :dent nourishment either in the shape of beef or barley. Mr. SMITH (the treasurer) stated that the receipts to the present day were 7131, which bad been expended in giving publicity to their proceedings, and in other mea sures which had been pa ductive of much good. He hoped that henceforth as hitherto their funds would he adequate to their wants. The CHAIRMAN did Lot altogether agree in the re mork that beer-shops were nurseries of vice. He con ceived that gin-shops were the worse of the two, and that beer• shops, in some cases great nuisances, were in many instances attended with great advantage. He re gretted, too, the remarks that had been made about the aristocracy, particularly by Mr. Arkell, in Berkshire. It' was better to leave them where they were, and for that association strenuously to follow its own course. Mr. ARKELL (of Wiltshire) wished to explain. What he had said was, that the tenant-farmers must look no longer to the landlords or the clergy of the county, but to themselves alone. They had sought aid long enough from those above them, who, instead of affording it, had only. seduced and swindled them.—(Laughter.) He should not find fault with the aristocracy if they kept their proper places. He believed they were the better of having three estates; but when he found the aristocracy interfering to turn the tenant-farmer from the legitimate exercise of his constitutional right, ho felt that he was justified in complaining. He had received letters from Members of Parliament and others of the same class, telling him that this was not the proper time to seek for a repeal of the malt-tax.—(A laugh.) If they waited for seven years more they would be told just the same thing. Mr. Neeld, the Member for Chippenham, stated at a public meeting, held at Devizes, that the poor man ought not to pay a duty on his beer; and yet, when he ad dressed a letter to that gentleman, requesting him, in consequence of that declaration, to take the chair at their meeting at Chippenham for a repeal of the malt-tax, his reply was, that he would do no such thing, as the tune for seeking that measure had not yet arrived.—(A laugh.) ' There was, no doubt, a time for all things, and Members of Parliament must not, therefore, forget that there was a particular season out of seven at which the tenant farmers and other electors were their masters.—(Hear.) It was said that the removal of the malt-tax would cause an increase in the income-tax. Even so ; those who possessed large incomes ought to be the last to quarrel about a heavy tax.—(Hear.) As for the malt -tax, he believed that 19 out of every 20 of the farmers of the country would wish to see it repealed.—(Hear.) Mr. HARVEY (secretary to the Harlestowe Club) cor roborated the remarks of the last speaker. He yester day attended a meeting of the Agricultural Association at Bury St. Edmund's, at which the chairman, Mr. Wad dington, one of the landowners of the neighbourhood, said that this was not the proper time for seeking the removal of the duty on malt, as it would cause the im position of another tax, and that, therefore, it was only taking out of one pocket to put into another. He (Mr. Harvey) thought the inference good, but with this addi tion, that it would be taking from the wrong to put into the right pocket.—(Hear.) Mr. ELMAN (of Lewes) congratulated the association upon the fact that the Duke of Richmond had unequivo cally declared himself, at the meeting yesterday, in favour of the repeal of the malt duty ; but considered it necessary, in order to give full effect to that declaration, to collect the sentiments upon the subject of the tenant farmers throughout the kingdom. Their sentiments would be known on the 12th of January. He was con fident they would be unanimously in favour of the mea sure ; and if so, they could then, in the opinion of the Noble Duke, assume such a position as would deter any Government from refusing their prayer. His Grace had also said, and he agreed with him, that nothing could be worse than to attempt anything by agitation that could be gained in a manner to command universal re spect. That associaton was now in such a train, not only to command respect, but to attain such a force as must result in complete success. The whole opposition they had met with at King's Lynn was from the teetotal lers, whose object was to discourage drunkenness ; but the way to do so was not by driving the labourer to the public-house, but by allowing him to enjoy a nourishing and wholesome beverage at home. Mr. B. B. CABDELL, M.P. (who was warmly received) said, that he had promised his constituency, on the oc casion of his election, to support any petition in favour of the great object they had in view •, and he should most heartily do so.—(Hear, hear.) Being questinned upon the subject of free trade, he said at once, " Let it have a fair trial '." and with that reply th e quer i s t s were s atisfied. If he had been asked to explain, he was pre pared to have answered that by a fair:trialhemeant a total repeal of the malt-tax. He was prepared to have said that if Sir R. Peel looked to his own honour or charac ter as the great minister of the greatest country in the world, he would have included that measure in his re form of the tariff, instead of palming upon the country as genuine that which he knew in his heart was false, because wanting in that particular which could alone have rendered it just and impartial.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. T. HODGSKIN, not a farmer, but a determined free-trader, concurred with the Hon. Gentleman in re garding this as a question of free trade. Our trade with foreign nations had been relieved, but the whole of the home industry of the country was still very much op pressed by our odious system of excise laws. It could not be doubted that at present there was in the public mind a strong tendency to free trade and an equally strong aversion to restrictions. But then this Associa tion was establishing itself solely for the removal of one of those restrictions—that upon the manufacture of malt; PRICE SD. wnereasif they, adopted the view of the Hon. Gentle man who last addressed them, and placed the question upon the basis of free trade, they ought not, in his (Mr. Hodgskin's) opinion, to confine th emse l ves to t h at ques tion, but seek fo r the repeal of the duty on soap, and of all other r , -!strictions which press upon the home industry of the country. In consequercz, of the remark which fell from Mr. Cabbell he was led to suggest that if they regarded the repeal of the malt tax as a free-traee Met sure, and wished its speedy success, they had placed their association on too narrow a basis to obtain the support of the great body of the community, and must consequently fail. Mr.LATirmonE said, that making it part and parcel of the great food question would give it popularity enough. It was a measure which would benefit every class, even the landed proprietors themselves, inasmuch as it woul 1 lead to the better cultivation of land, and to the bettering the condition of the peasant. Mr. NORTHOUSE thought the question might very well stand upon its own merits. It had the rare advantage of uniting two adverse parties ; and was certainly due to the farmers of the country as a set-off to the experiment under which they were now suffering. The CHAIRMAN observed that, however valuable the suggestion of Mr. Hodgskin, and however ' willing any gentleman there might be t adopt it, it was not now in their power to alter the object for which the society had been established. The immediate question for the meet ing to consider was, whether it would be advisable to continue sending deputations to different parts of the kingdom. _ _ _ Mr. ARRELL was of opinion that no more deputations should b 3 sent out until invited by some respectable party in the district to which they were to go : and after some conversation it was moved by Dr. Lamb (of East Sussex), seconded by Mr. Elman, and unanimously agreed to, that the association should adopt no further active steps until after the meeting of the 12th January. Thanks being then voted to the chairman and the deputations, the association adjourned to the 13th of January. SPANISH AMERICAN BOND- HOLDERS. The following letters and documents, received to-day by the chairman of the committee of Spanish American Bondholders, have been handed to us for publication. It will be seen from the second letter that the uncertain ties regarding the last Mexican conversion have at length been put to rest, and that the operation, as car ried out by Messrs.

We have been incessant in our applications to the Mexican Government about the restitution of the fifth of duties belonging to the holders of Mexican Bonds involved in the general suspension of all payments decreed by this Go vernment, but, owing to the disturbed state of the coun try, the blockade of . its ports, and the imperative calls for money upon au exhausted treasury, we have not been able to get any satisfactory reply from the several Ministers of Finance that have succeeded each other in office within the last three months. Under these circum stances we made another attempt in applying by letter (copy of which we enclose) to, the present Minister, Don Antonio Ham Tamariz, who has verbally pro mised to attend to the business, and return us a decision by next packet. The unfortunate war with the United States is, in our opinion, at present the chief cause of the difficulties of the Mexican Government; and the worst of it is, that it is difficult to assign a term to the hostilities between the two countries.

Grimstone, of the Herbary, High gate, for the efficacy et his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than t ever was before the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenstor, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an lls. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair iu abund ance, but as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilot perfume it is far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above facts. —3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and prevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, WEDNESDAY—Received, this day, on behalf of the late Lieutend'ut W. P.

As the crew were empl o y e d in getting in a large spar, with the aid of the yard and stay tackles, the heel of the spar hung in a projection of the paddle-box. Mr. Archer, the master of the Penelope, took a hand spike to prize it off, when the spar, by a sudden exertion of the crew in hoisting, came clear, and crushed him against the funnel, breaking several of his ribs. He was promptly taken to Hasler Hospital, where he remains in a dangerous state. The barque H amps hi re, of Portsmout h, w hi c h h as been discharging timb er at t h e Dockyar d , was taking in ballast alongside the jetty t o -d ay, w h en , by the mis management of the persons employed, in not trimming it as it was taken in, she be came too h eav y, fell over on her side, filled, and sank. Every exertion was used by the Dockyard authorities to render assistance, and . she was ultimately righted, but soon a f ter f e ll o ver again on the jetty. She will now h ave to b e " we i g h e d" by the Dockyard lumps. The Comet steam-vessel, Lieutenant Commander Johnston, was at Westport o n th e 7t h i ns t., expecting to be relieved by the Dasher. A private letter says, " To morrow we go to Dugart, near Achill, taking with us six tons of salt in bags, 15 bags of bread, and 30 sacks of corn, to alleviate the cravings of the famishing peasantry at that place. We have, received orders to ship a number of good strapping young fellows for the Vengeance or other vessels of war, as well as sturdy well-grown youths, from 17 to 19 years of age, as first class boys, and there are many such here ready and willing to serve her Majesty, who will enter forthwith on board the Comet for general service.'

Car ter, at the Welsh Trooper, Bankside, on the body of Margaret Donaghue, aged 66 years, lately residing at No. 11, Pigeon court, Ray-street, Clerkenwell, who, it was alleged, had committed suicide by jumping off Black friars-bridge. The deceased obtained a scanty liveli hood by selling fruit, but for some time past had been leading a life of drunkenness, pawning and selling every thing she possessed. On Satureay morning last she was seen by her daughter drinking at the White Swan public-house, in Ray-street, which place she left quite intoxicated, and nothing more was seen of her until seven o'clock on Sunday morning last, when a man named Nevitt, whilst standing on the pier at Blackfriars-bridge, saw the body of a female floating down the river. He rowed after it, and conveyed the body ashore, but all efforts to restore life were unavailing. Several duplicates were found in her pocket, which ultimately led to her identity. There being no evidence to prove how the de ceased came into the water, the jury returned a verdict of " Found drowned." AN ANECDOTU OF THE QUEEN DOWAGER.—It chanced one evening that our major, Count Reichen bach, stood up to dance a q uadrille with the Princess Adelaide of Meiningen. His toilet w as not well suited , the floor was At last he severalg i e l ;i g n , hgi a s nd useless, from wo un d s rece i ved h i b s o o t t s were i me s trippheavy, r h i e p a p v e yi partner with hi m . Hi s r i ght to a o lriimpr t Iphyi was s a i na - r nda o cir o as m gibi at Lutzen, and some short time elapsed before the Princess was raised from her recumbent position by the ladies and gentlemen of the Court, and conducted into an adjoining apartment. With rueful countenance and twisting his red mustache from vexation, Count Reichenbach tried to lose himself in the crowd, and to escape the annoyance of being stared at and pointed out as the man who had thrown down the beautiful young princess. It was easy to see that he would rather have stormed a dozen hostile batteries than have made so unlucky a debut in the royal ball -room. In a short quarter of an hour, however, when the fuss caused by the accident had nearly subsided, the princess re-appeared, looking more charming than ever, and sought about until she discovered poor Count Reichen bach, who had got into a corner near the stove. With the most captivating grace, she invited him to return to whose badly the dance, saying lo ud enou g h for al l around to hear, " that she ;honoured a brave Prus sian soldier whose the fight of her h e a r t s h e rivalled each other bw liberationbreast was i a s rs a mt d o hL r a n ed e i pdz notwi e p t with r h de e n iron ttiadt c hw r i is o t s hfi s , ga a hl n it d i n g would begin the dance ag ain with h im." apno T nd h h e im co f u r i o it m 's parasites, t t triwhoumph height ewma o es of their moment o m b e p f l ee compassion, e e ; hadth e e c e o k u erdt now prudes r u rw d i vn e in amiability. With a well-pleased smile the count stroked his great heard, led the princess to the quadrille, and danced it in first-rate style. When, in May, 1836, I was presented, as captain in the Dutch service, to the Princess Adelaide, then Queen of England, at St. James's Palace, her Majesty perfectly remembered the incident I have here narrated to my readers. To her inquiries after Count Reichenbach, I unfortunately had to reply that he was long since dead.— Wanderungen eines alien Soldaten. _ _ R MANCHESTE R. — The Man n interview EPREoSErieNTrAT state s I O Lord M LincoIn , ANCHESTE R i Man chester Cu with a deputation which waited on him on S a t ur d a y, con sented to stand as a candidate for the representation of that borough.

JONATHAN IN HIS GLORY. The Baltimore Sun contains some correspondence re lative to the late battle of Monterey, portions of which seem to have been expressly written for quotation in our periodical. As for instance—the writer is speaking of the " Texan Rangers ": " They were each armed with barrelled rifles, and, as may be supposed, did great execution among the cop per-skins." Copper-skins! Quite a sporting phrase. Who would think the skins were those of-human beings? He then relates the following " incidents":— Colonel M'Cluny, of Mississippi, the great duellist, got upon the breastworks, waved his hat, and was in the act of giving three cheers, when a ball struck him, from the effects of which he has since died." Universally regretted, of course, as the " great duellist," an honour to his country. " Samuel W. Chambers, one of the rangers, or ' the Delaware hero,' as they call him, deliberately took aim with his ' fire-shooter,' firing with great effect, and crushing the Mexicans." • " But it is impossible for me to mention all the nume rous incidents that occurred at the present time." Let us correct what must have been an erratum in the preceding paragraph. For " numerous" read " murder• oust" such is the right designation of the whole affair; and even Jonathan himself must admit " that's a fact." —Punch. M. EATON, M.P.—We learn by private accounts, we have just received from Malta, that although this un fortunate gentleman is still living, he is in suck a state a 3 to perclude the possibility of his again representing the county.

BRIGHT IN CHORLTON-ON MEDLOCK. On Tuesday evening, Mr. Bright addressed the electors and others of Choriton-on-Medlock, in the Town Hall;' Grosvenor-square. The room was quite full, and many could not obtain admission. Amongst those present we noticed Mr. Aldermun Mayson, Mr. George Hadfield, the Rev. William Gaskell, Messrs. Samuel Lees, John Rail ton, William Shuttle Worth, Wm. M`Cartney,- Charles Pountney, William Edwards, &c. A few minutes after eight o'clock. Mr. Bright entered the room, accompanied by Mr. Alderman Mayson, Mr. George Hadfield and others, and was loudly greeted. Mr. Alderman Maarsos was called t o th e c h a i r, and in introducing Mr. Bright to the electors, he said, that to relinquish the privilege of returning our representatives from among ourselves would be to admit that a mistake was made - when the Reform Bill was passed, and that we are obliged practically to return to the-system of pa ' tronage which formerly prevailed, though in another form. Mr. BRIGHT then addressed the electors for 'nearly fifty minutes, chiefly can topics and to the same effect as in former addresses. These were the corn-laws, national taxation, and the qeestions on which his principal votes had been given to Parliament, the first of v‘ hick was the grant to Maynooth, on which he said that no inducement on earth should lead him to vote for any extension of tl,e principle of religious endowments. He next spoke of his votes against Lord Ashley's Ten Hours Bill, and after commenting strongly on the course taken by Mr. John Fielden, Mr. Oast!er, and Mr. Ferrard, said he could not conceive a guilt more dreadful than that of a insn coming before a large audience of working mon. and endeavour ing to persuade them, unless he hod first deceived himself, {hat by some sort of Act of Parliament jug glery they could have twelve hours' weges for ten hours' work. He then dwelt on his Parliamentary exertions with reference to the game-laws, and he believed it was no egotism in him to say that the array of facts and statements which he brought forward was such as it was impossible to resist, and accordingly the Government granted a Committee of Inquiry. He need not go into any facts to show that this had been a very large expen diture of labour, and a much larger expeniture of money than he was at all called upon to go to. The true principle was, that no legislative encouragement should be given to the maintenance of wild animals fur the purposes of sport, in a country so densely peopled, and requiring all the land can produce, as is the condi tion of the United Kingdom. He had voted on the same side with Mr. Villiers, Mr. Cobden, Mr. Brotherton, and Mr. Gibson, on all the questions, with the single excep tion of the Maynooth grant; and he appealed to the past, and said he was not a changed man; that his opinion had been formed for years; that he did not change. as he grew old, but became confirn ed. He had always felt it his duty, in the House of Commons, to stand forward on every occasion when slanders were heaped on the popu lation of these districts. There was an attempt to make -it appear that this population was not quite awake to its own interests, but that if a man bad been their bitter opponent for fourteen years during the whole of his Parliamentary career, and was then found i n th e i r ran k s, when resistance was altogether hopeless, they were called upon to honour and exalt him. He would not minutely examine the grounds upon which it was proposed to bring forward Lord Lincoln. It would be unbecoming in him to endeavour to explain how much there might be in them of patriotism, and how much of personal feeling, but he was quite sure there was not a man who felt an honest aspiration for the people's cause, who did not anxiously hope that this constituency would maintain the high and honourable character it had gained amongst the constituencies of the empire. In answer to questions from Mr. MEDGALT, Mr. BRIGHT avowed himself favourable to triennial Parliaments, and against a property qualification for Member. Mr. MEDCALF—Are you in favour of what is popu larly termed universal suffrage and vote by ballot? Mr. BRIGHT—I am most decidedly in favour of vote by ballot. With respect to universal suffrage, I take the question to mean whether I am of _opinion that every man of 21 years of age and upwards, untainted by crime, should have a vote. After quoting Blackstone, Mr. Bright said, then comes the question, if you admit the abstract right, that every man prima facie is entitled to a vote, how you, being in Parliament, would be disposed to extend that vote to him. Mr. Bright said he thought probably it would not be an advisable thing at once to extend the suffrage from the one million who now hold it to the six millions who would hold it if all were in cluded ; but he thought it would be most advantageous to the state that there should be now even a large num ber admitted at once within the pale of the franchise. Mr. MEDCALF asked if Mr. Bright was in favour of the House of Lords, as at present constituted, being re tained as a branch of the Legislature? Mr. Biticar said no man had ever heard him say a word, in public or private, against the desirableness of having a house of legislation not constituted like the House of Commons. And those who had supposed that politi cal liberty was impeded by the House of Lards, had rather made the mistake of directing their attention there, rather than to the house called the House of Commons. The more the House of Commons was com posed of an aristocratic element, the mere the people gave it to the House of Lords to render themselves so irresponsible to the peop'e, that they might again be come hostile, injurious, and prejudicial to the public li berties. Believing we could maintain as much influence in the House of Commons os to counteract anything unsafe and irresponsible in the House of Lords, he was not prepared to advocate any charge with regard to that portion of our constitteim. Mr. MEijcALE next asked: Suppcsing Government were to separate the Irish Church horn its political po sition, how would Mr. Bright propose to dispose of its revenues ? Mr. BRIGHT said he should resist any attempt to ap ply them to the cu.:owl - 1)(ra or surport of and• religious sect whatever, as a religious sect. lie would IL:Alike theta frnn one church to han(l ti Clll nothcr. Mr. GEORGE HADFIELD then moved the following re solution :—" That this meeting of electors, gratefully ac knowledging the valuable services of Mr. Bright to this community and to the country at large, during the seven years' arkluous struggle for commercial reform, and etiter taining the highest opinion of his integrity and abilities, as shown in his past public and Parliamentary career, resolves that he is eminently qualified to represent this borough in Parliament, and pledges itself to assist in securing his return, by every lawful means, at the next general election." Mr. WILLIAM POWNALL seconded the resolution. The CHAIRMAN then put the motion, which passed with two or three dissentients. Air. BRIGHT, in acknowledging this vote, said that his friends had the start in the canvass ; that they were in the field with a man known to very many of the electors personally, and almost to all through the public press. These were great and signal advantages cn their side. He recommended the district committees to make great exertions in the canvass, as every district coming to the general ccmmittee with good returns, %Rs a great stimulus to the other districts to exert themselves as much as possible; and with good principles, great zeal, and prolonged and determined exertions, there was material .enough in the borough to carry a liberal can didate by a very large majority. He would not boast of what he had done at the city of London election; but he knew that from that time to this, he had not got rid of the effects of the protracted and almost unsurpassed exertions which the members of the League in London underwent at that time. He worked, not for Mr. Patti son, but for the principle at stake in that election ; and now he was bold enough to appeal to the constituency cf Manchester, and entreated every man to consider that ho was working for his mill, for his warehouse, for his shop, for his home, and for the liberties and prosperity of his family and his country.—(Applause.)
