They have not spoken in vain; their words have not been " wasted on the desert air ;" they are diffused through the length and breadth of the land, and everywhere they must produce effect. Eloquence may contradict eloquence, fine speeches may coun teract fine speeches, but truth is unanswerable. Not all the hereditary wisdom of the Dukes of RICHMOND and BUCXINGHAM, not all the culinary science of the Duke of NORFOLK, nor the poetic genius of Lord W. LENNOX, not the united eloquence of the whole ex elusive faction could answer the plain statements of these humble men. Take the following examples : " William Parry, of Charlton, said, I have come a distance of twenty miles to tell my tale of distress. I have six children, a wife, and myself to maintain on Bs. per week, bread being 15d. per gallon. The farmers tell us that our wages go according to the price of bread ; but last spring I had Is. a week, and could buy bread at 9d. a gallon. Now it is 6d. more ; and a gallon a day, being one pound to each, is what we want in my family. l i Then there is clothing and firing wanted, and house rent to pay ; but there is nothing to pay for any of these things. I told the relieving officer that I could not keep my family on my wages. He said he would bring my case forward at the board of guardians. Well, he sent me an order for one of my children to go into the work house. Now, fellow-labourers, is not one child as dear to you as another ?—(Hear ' hear.) Well, I did no t know which to send. I could not part with ne'er a one. I said to my oldest girl, You are to go into the work house.' She did not like to go, and I spoke to others, and there I had the cries of my poor children, which were piercing to my heart, Don't send me, father don't send me Was not that enough to try a man, without the pressure of starvation ? I spoke to master about it. Oh,' he says, if you cannot maintain them you had better send one into the workhouse ; I shall not allow you any more wages.' I sa id, w h a t benefit is it to send this child into the workhouse and banish it from its home; it will do the rest no good, nor that one either. Besides, I should have it always upon my mind, for no man would like to part from his children in such a way.—(Hear.) I spoke a few words at a meeting at Uphaven, and master told me I had done myself a great deal of hurt by it. I know I only told the truth. He said the farmers might have done me some good but for that. " William Taylor stated that he had a wife and four children, and expected soon to have five ; and was at present out of employment. For the last seven weeks he was in work he got 6s. 6d. per week. For many days he had been without a bit of bread to eat. " A person in the crowd—But you are one of the pro tected Wiltshire labourers. Were you discharged from your employment because you were so weak you could not work? " Taylor—Yes, I could not work because I was not strong enough ; I could not get victuals to make me so ; and my master, Mr. Styles, of Whitcomb, discharged me. I have no work now, and not a sixpence. A voice—Go to the Duke of Richmond, at 17, Bond street.—(Cries of Hear, hear.') " Another ♦oice—Did ever any of your fellow labourers give you bread when you were starving ? " Taylor—Yes, several times. I han't had any to-day but what that man gave meXpointing to a labourer in the crowd, who replied, Yes, I gave him some to-day.') May God Almighty soon send free trade ! [This poor man need not have called himself a starv ing man, his emaciated appearance spoke in stronger terms than his voice could utter]. " James Peglar complained that he had been hunted down' under the poor-laws, having been, with his wife and family, forced into the workhouse, and se parated from them for eleven months.—(Cries of `Shame!) At last he was turned out to get work ; and, because he went out of the district to find work, he was taken before the magistrates, and charged with desertion, for which he was sent to prison for a month. It was no use for him to grumble; he was served so again after that. God bless my heart and life (exclaimed this man) I never seed sich a go to be sure as how I was served. I knows enough of starvation and misery to make me say, God send us free trade !' "—(Cheers.) One of the chief characteristics of the English people is their enduring fortitude ; this is the great secret of our national: greatness. The eager vivacity of the French, the impetuous ardour of the southerns, have frequently made them foremost for a time, the English are daring, and high-spirited, and brave; but it is to their endurance in adversity that they owe their proud position. Others gain , but we keep them ; others win a brief fame while we earn lasting glory. What an example is presented by the people at this moment. Poverty and hunger, neglect and oppression are their portion ; they do not rebel, they do not even despair ; no dis orderly movement is made ; they only follow the pre scribed rules; they meet to communicate their griefs; they petition the Legislature to amend the laws, and they await the result with anxious patience. May they not wait long! Oh, let the relief be speedy— let those in power remember, to give quickly is to give twice. In another fortnight the representatives of the people re-assemble ; may they truly represent their constituents, and be unanimous and resolved as they are. Let the landlords still hold out if they will—they will be but a feeble minority. Short sighted men ! did they know their own interests they would act differently. Are they ignorant that their welfare depends on that of the labourer ? They can no more exist without him than a column without its base, yet the base can exist without the capital. If noble Lords studied architecture it might be bet ter for them; they would not be so ready to build without foundation. The meeting at Goatacre will be useful in many ways; it will set an example to the rest of the country, and, as one of the men observed, " It will even be gratifying to Sir R. PEEL, who is waiting for the people of this country to press him on to repeal, for he knows, as well as any man, the bad effects the corn-laws are producing." We have received Madrid journals of the 31st ult. The debate on the Address commenced in the Senate on the 30th, and was resumed next day. The first five paragraphs were adopted with little discussion. On the sixth being proposed, M. BURGOS moved that it be omitted. That paragraph stated that the subor dination and good discipline of the army were the surest guarantees of public peace. This he considered opposed to constitutional government, as the only sure guarantee was is the due execution of the laws. General NARVAEZ opposed the amendment, and de nied that the military power dominated over every other power in the State. Military domination was at an end, and ordinary laws and a free press were established. There were no powers existing except ing those sanctioned by the law, and the fact was evinced by the meeting of the representatives of the people. The paragraph was ultimately adopted. No business of any interest was done in the other Chamber. On the 31st the Three per Cents. were quoted at 361 at 60 days. The accounts from Paris of the state of the stock and share-market are very favourable. On Tuesday the Three per Cents. opened at the closing prices of the previous day, but afterwards advanced considerably, and closed at 83f. 20c., showing a rise of 30c. The Fives left off firm at 121 f. 45c.; and all the railway shares closed at higher quotations. Discussions and Ministerial explanations had taken place in the Com mittee of the Deputies appointed to draw up the answer to the Address. Four of the Ministers were present—M. GUIZOT, Admiral MACKAU, General ST. Yox, and M. C. GEIDAINE, the Minister of Commerce. In answer to questions, the Minister for Foreign Affairs spoke at considerable length. With regard to the intervention of France and England on the Plate, he said that both powers were deter mined to continue steady in the course they had adopted, until tranquillity should be completely re stored ; and, in regard to the annexation of Texas, France had only taken those steps without regard to England which she considered conducive to her own interests. The papers relative to this subject would be laid before the Chambers. The Minister of Marine, Admiral MACKAU, confirmed a statement made by M. GUCZOT, and said France had no inten tion to colonise Madagascar. The object of the expe dition was to avenge the death of the French soldiers who had perished in that island, and when that ob ject was attained, and guarantees had been given for the safety of those carrying on trade in the island, the expedition would return to France. The other topics adverted to possess little or no interest for the English reader. The Committee of the Chamber of Peers, appointed to draw up the Address, also met on Tuesday, to hear the report drawn up by Count PORTAL'S. If the Address, as drawn up by the reporter, should be approved of by the Committee, the Peers will meet on Wednesday in their bureaux to hear it read, and the THE SUN LONDON, THURSDAY yvv -- I , ENING, JANITAIRY 8, 1846 ~,onably commence on Thurs- MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 5,000 to 6,000 bales, nearly all to the trade, at full prices. American at 4d. per b. and under was not so easy to buy. There are accounts a few days later from the Cape of Good Hope, but they contain no news of particular in terest. The state of the frontier was tranquil, and despite occasional alarms, there had been no actual outbreak. Sales of land had been made at an advance of 25 per cent. on upon the prices of the year previous. A very marked improvement has occurred this morning in the value of the British Securities, and there is much buoy ancy observable. The payment of the dividends in the course of a day or two, assists the market, and with the purchases for the Sinking Fund, already commenced, the Bulls will perhaps be encouraged to operate. Consols have been 94% to 95% for present transfer, and 95 to 95 1 4 % for the 16th instant. Bank Stock has been up to 205 and 206. New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 9712 to 9814; and the Three per Cents. 95% to 95%. Exchequer-bills are up to 28s. and 30s. premium. The Foreign Investments have been heavy. Spanish Three per Cents. at 39% ; Portuguese Four per Cents. at 58 ; and Mexican at 31 ; Brazilian New Stock is worth 78. Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. are at 98. The Direct Northern Railway comes out very spiritedly for the new tilt in Parliament against its rivals the London and York and the Cambridge projects, and despite the exer tions of the latter there are good reasons for presuming that the claims of the Direct Northern will give it the decided preference. As opposed to the London and York, its gradients are far better, and the distance it traverses is shorter, though it affords accommodation to all the principal localities, and it has also ample pecuniary means to work upon. With respect to the Cambridge projects, they are far more circuitous, and have by no means so central a terminus as the Direct Northern, while, as opposed to both schemes, the Direct Northern has already received the pre ference of the Railway Board, and been favourably enter tained before the Parliamentary Committee. The Share Market does not appear to have improved pari passu with Stocks, but it is rather firmer. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK. (From the Official List.) Bank Stock 206 205 3 per Cent.

It will be seen from the address of Mr. GLADSTONE to the electors (he should have said the non-electors) of Newark, that he declines to present himself again as a candidate for the representation of that borough. The reason he gives is rather curiously expressed. " As I have good reason," says he, " to believe that a candidate, recommended to your favour through local connexion, may ask your suffrages, it becomes my very painful duty to announce to you, on that ground alone, my retirement from a position which has afforded me so much of honour and of satisfaction." A stranger to Newark and Clumber Castle on reading the paragraph would have imagined that the Secre tary to the Colonies was to be opposed because he was encumbered by official duties, and could sot at tend to the interests of his constituents, or that some active citizen, well acquainted with the population and the affairs of the borough, from a conviction that both had been neglected by the late Member, had generously offered to supply his place, sacrifice his domestic comforts, and per haps injure his trade or profession, for the good .f his fellow-citizens ; but great would be his wonder when he learned that all this was most opposite to the fact —that there was only one elector, the Duke of NEWCASTLE—that Newark was his property—and, adhering to a noble principle laid down by his Grace, " that a man had a right to do what he liked with his own," he was pleased to supplant Mr. GLADSTONE by some new favourite. Yet this is done, and openly done, in England ; where, by the law of the land, all Peers are prohibited from interfering in any way whatever with the elec tion of burgesses. What a mockery, then, is the law made by Xing, Lords, and Commons, when it is thus openly violated by one of the law-makers, and that too for his own personal interests. Another law also is-vio lated—that by which a Member, on being appointed to a Government office of a certain class, is compelled to return to his constituents, and ask their sanction to the measure. This is an excellent regulation, be cause it forms a check on the Government, and en ables the people, in some respects, to control their policy ; but in this instance it is a dead letter. The Duke says " You shall not consult the con stituents—your measures are not my measures— you propose to remove a tax justly im posed for the good of the aristocracy, and by the aristocracy to raise their rent-rolls. The people, of course, wish to get rid of that tax, but we are the lawgivers, and the people shall feel this to their cost. The borough is mine, and I will return a fit representative." And what is the consequence of this policy, putting its illegality entirely out of the question ? Mr. GLADSTONE is appointed to one of the most important departments in the State; that department has been greatly mis managed latterly—at all events, the Noble Lord who has vacated it, gave universal dissatisfaction, and the state of New Zealand, as well as other colo nies, bears witness that the dissatisfaction was not without reasonable grounds. Yet the Minister who succeeds is forbidden to consult his former constituents; he cannot attend in his place in the Commons to an swer the grievances complained of, and the duty of his office can only be very imperfectly and most unsatisfactorily performed, till he is smuggled into some other pocket- borough, or obtains a seat by less creditable means. This is a great blot on the Re form Bill, but, nevertheless, let us be thankful to the Duke ; he is carrying his illegal policy to the utmost extent ; he is thereby pointing out in the most effective manner the rottenness of a system which includes some forty or fifty places, all said to be represented, but without any consti tuents whatever, and thus forcing upon the people of England another struggle for the extension of the suffrage. We are much obliged to the Dukes. The Duke of WELLINGTON'S famous speech decided the Reform Bill, and another Duke is doing his duty in an equally effective manner to render that Bill more perfect. Mr. GLADSTONE'S address lets out another secret. " I am given to understand," he adds in another part of the address, " that persons favourable to unrelaxed protection were not prepared themselves to undertake the conduct of public affairs, in conformity with the views which they entertained." So that the Duke of NEWCASTLE, and the perverse clique who cry out for " protection," will neither work themselves nor let others work. The Men- MONDS, and BUCKINGHAM, and STARLETS, could not venture to announce to a House of Commons their extravagant principles, because they knew they would be laughed to scorn. They stand in the way of all improvement —they would stem the stream which they cannot turn, and, like all obstructions of such puny strength, will, for the good of their country, be in due time swept away by the unconquerable force of the current. In another part of our paper will be found a report of a meeting of agricultural labourers in North Wiltshire, which we have transferred from the Times. It is worthy of deep and earnest atten tion ; yet this recommendation is unnecessary—it is impossible to peruse it unmoved. It is no varnished tale—no plausible romance, adorned with rounded periods and melodious phrases; it boasts no adventi tious ornaments, yet is it eloquent, eloquent with the power of truth, which is, like beauty, " when un adorned, adorned the most." It is a brief statement of the sorrows of the poor, narrated by themselves, in language at once simple and affecting. No writer of fiction ever adorned his pages with such touching pathos, such heart-stirring eloquence—no painter ever conceived a more impressive scene. In a cross -road in the open country, without shelter of any kind, on a dark, cold winter night, are assembled about a thousand persons, dressed in the commonest garb, all wasted by suffering. On a rude bench is seated a man of venerable appearance, poor and sorrowful like the rest ; but his language is full of humble piety and reliance upon PROVIDENCE. A few uncouth lanterns shed a fitful light around ; some illumine the counte nance of youth, of youth without smiles, like life without sunshine, or serve to distinguish the features of children shivering with cold, or starv thers, with starv ing with hunger. Some show us the unhappy pale faces and wasted frames, anha m rd o - - working, suffering men , eagerness toilin g for i nadequate reward. With what breathless ' t ze of e h ss is dtootuhb.elyes,haenedd re echoes their speaker, who with hope as their own ; how their voices rise in concert to Are these some is tolerated attest his truth, how their faces glow he speaks of swift deliverance! natives of a barbarous land, where slavery and approved ; is it a scene of ancient days i n t h e old times of feudal tyranny ? Not so; it is a glimpse .England in the civilised and re of the peasantry of f ined nineteenth century . 1 These starving, suffering men are the tillers of the soil, by the sweat of whose public discussion will "- day vie regret," says Galignani, "to announce the death of Mr. LEWIS GOLDSMITH (father of Lady LYNDHURST), which took place last night (Monday), at his residence, in the Rue de la Paix. His decease was somewhat unexpected, although he bad been se riously ill for the last few days, and the state of his health for a considerable length of time had been so precarious, as to leave little or no hope of his entire recovery." The Constitutionnel says :—" It appears that it will be during the stay of the Royal Family at Neuilly, in the months of May and June, that the Queen of ENGLAND will again visit France. Considerable works in cleaning and improving are going on at Neuilly. From that residence the young QUEEN will come to Paris and proceed to Versailles, where some grand flies will be offered to her. The following article from the Journal des Debate on the subject of French, German, and English railroads, may be interesting to some readers : " In general the rate of charges on the German rail roads are similar, but the lowest is that on the Bavarian line belonging to the State. The price of the first-class is sc. 7-10ths, and for the two o th ers 3c. 9-10ths, and 2c. 4-10ths, which is less than on the Belgian lines worked by the State. Several German companies have, besides, reduced rates of charges either for those pas sengers who go by a . merchandise train, or for those who subscribe for a certain number of jou rneys per mont h . There are also tickets i ssued at a reduced price for a party going and returning. For the convey ance o f goods there is nothing strikingly new in the German tariffs, as they are nearly similar to the French. On a part of the line from Vienna to Olmutz the price has been reduced to 7c. per ton per kilometre (the quarter of a French league), but this is the minimum of the German tariffs. The Orleans Company, however, only charge Bc. on some descriptions of articles, and the Rouen Company, In consequence of the opposition of the boats on the river, has reduced its price to 71c. between Rouen and Paris. Goods in transitu on the Belgian lines only pay 6c., .and on some English lines coals in tended for exportation are only charged 6c. In this state of things it appears to be establi a: mat tho raili vtda cannot carry goods for less than from 6c. to 7c., which is a third of the price charged by the ordinary carriers. In Germany more than three-fourths of the passenger go by the lowest class carriages ; a fifth part by the second class, and only three in a hundred by the carriages of the first class. In this respect, as in many others, France occupies a middle station between England and Ger many. The rate of speed on the German railroads is moderate, not exceeding 30 kilometres (not quite 19 English miles) per hour. It is caused by their peculiar mode of construction, and it also shows that time is not yet considered very valuable in that country. On the most productive lines of railroad in England, as that from London to Birmingham, the gross returns are from 100,000 f. to 120,000 f. per kilometre. In France, the best lilies (we only speak of those of some extent), such as the Orleans and Rouen lines, give a gross return of from 50,000 f. to 65,000 f., or about half of the best Eng lish lines. The most favoured lines in Germany do not yet produce more than the half of the best lines in France. Exclusive of the lines from Vienna to Glocgnitz, and from Berlin to Potsdam, the former of which produces 31,000 f., and the latter 27,000 f. per kilometre, the good German lines are below 25,000 f. That from Aix-la-Cha pelle to Cologne only produced in 1844 23,736 f. ; that from Leipsic to Dresden 18,770 f. ; that from Madgeburg to Leipsic 21,638 f. The expenses may be always reckoned at from the half to two-fifths of the receipts. The divi dends paid to the shareholders are in most cases hardly 5 per cent. ; very rarely from 6 to 61, and in no case less than 3 per cent." On the Paris Bourse on Tuesday, the Stock-market closed as follows : —Three per Cents. for cash, 83f. 10c. ; for Ac count, 83f. 20e. ; Five per Cents., for cash, 121 E 45c. ; for Account, 121 f. 45c. ; Bank of France Shares, 3,310 f. ; Neapolitan, 102 f. 25c. ; Spanish and New Loan, not quoted. The Share-market closed at higher quotations. Paris and Orleans left off at 1,260 f. ; Paris and Rouen, 1,025 f. ; Rouen , and Havre, 815 f. ; Avignon, 1,005 f. ; Vierzon, 700 f. ; Stras burg and Basle, 255 f. ; Boulonge and Amiens, 555 f. ; Nor thern, 760 f. ; Bordeaux, 650 E ; liontereau, 442 f. 50c. ; Fam poux, not quoted.

EXTENSION OP LIVERPOOL—The increase in the number of houses built in Liverpool has been great beyond all precedent during the last two years, as will be seen from the following statement :—No less than 2,450 houses were erected in 1844, and the still more extraordinary number of 3,728 were erected in 1845, within the Parliamentary bo rough, to say nothing of the hundreds built beyond the boundaries, in the direction of the Old Swan, and the still greater number built on the Cheshire side of the river. To some extent this extraordinary increase in the number of houses has been the result of the excellent regulation which forbids living in cellars, and so far it is a proof of an improved mode of living rather than of an increase of the population ; but, even after every allowance has been made for that circumstance, the increase is surprising, and shows that Liverpool is still in the full vigour of its growth. The following particulars of the increase of houses from 1838 to 1845 are very remarkable : Houses.

RATING OF P RINCE A LB ERT'S FARM.—WINDSOR, WEDNESDAY.—In addition to the opinions obtained by the Prince Consort (on the subject of the claims of the parish of Windsor against his Royal Highness, for arrears of poor rates) from Sir Fresideridk Thesiger and Sir Thomas Wilde, his Royal Highness also had the *pinion of Mr. Fitzroy Kelly, which perfectly coincided, as the case was drawn up, with that of the other two eminent counsel we have named. Mr. White (Prince Albert's solicitor)3was present, by desire of the Prince, at the interview at the Castle, yesterday, between Mr. G. E. Anse!' and the parish officers. Considerable ex citement prevails in the town, in consequence of the opinion given by the law officers of the Crown. The result of the vestry meeting called by the churchwardens and overseers, and the steps which will be considered necessary to be taken by the parishioners on the subject, are looked forward to with great interest.
