A number of sportsmen, like " birds of a feather," One day after shooting, were dining together, And I needn't to say they were all rather merry, As they sat after dinner, enjoying their sherry. Such indeed was the case, and in style did they go on. With toasts and with anecdotes, di tites, and so on. Now one of the company happened to be A quick-witted gentleman, something like me; And the host said he trusted it would need no persuasion, If he asked for a song on the very occasion. So the poet requested a writing utensil, And at once set to work with his paper and pencil, And in five or ten minutes, or hardly so long, The sportsman produced AN ORIGINAL SONG. The warrior, bold, in days of old, Might sing of his sword and his shield ; But the man of the snort, would sing as he ought, `-• tire Coat that he wears in the field. See, see, I have one, by MOSES and SOS, An out-and-out spicy affair ; Hurrah for the Mart, and its Shooting-coat smart, Yes, hurrah.: may it long flourish there. I gaze•ronnd the room, and I see the costume Is all made by MOSES and SON ; Like myself, you have been, where the best Coats are seen, Well done, brother sportsmen, well done. Let us all, as in one, back MOSES and SON, And tell what their Shooting-coats are ; And as long let us sing as ou gun barrelling, Iltirrah for the Warehouse I—hurrah X.

Thousands of the unmarried would with joy embrace the sacred conditions of Matrimony, did they feel themselves equal to its obligations; and the chequered page of life reveals innumerable instances where, under that blighting consciousness, man has permitted the most ardent affec tion to consume him to the grave, rather than consign its object to that life of unmitigable anguish and fettered solitariness into which his affianced would be plunged if he married. Some are, however, wilful enough to gain the affections of the other sex under these circumstances; and, though not so villanous as to proceed to the altar, will make such excuses for procrastination as contribute to his selfish desire of exclusively enjoying her society, by precluding her from accepting other offers. There is scarcely a street where this history is not enacted ; and yet with the exercise of common foresight, its frequency might be so lessened as to ren der an instance rare throughout the entire kingdom. The disqualifications for Marriage have more than one primary source ; the chief of which is Impuissance, arising from four causes :--namely, Natural Deficiency ; the Prostration produced by Early Habits ; the Weakening effects of Later Excesses ; and Nervousness of Tempera— ment ; the next sources of importance are hereditary and acquired disease ; and, lastly, men are prevented from marrying by the effects of disease—which, when ill-cured, leaves traces that forbid all im pulse towards wedlock. In each of these instances it is unhappily too common for the sufferer to consider his case beyond remedy, and he fails to consult even his own medical attendant. Such will fled all obstacles removed by reference to a valuable Manual on Nervous Debility and Generative diseases, the thirty-seventh thousand of which has just been published by its Authors, J. L. CURTIS and CO., Consulting Surgeons, 7, Frith-street, Soho-square, London, entitled MANHOOD ; the Causes of its Premature Decline, with Plain Directions for Perfect Restoration, &c., &c. This eminent Work, which is forwarded by W. Strange, Boookseller, 21, Patnernoster row, London, post-paid, in a sealed envelope for 2s. 6d., in postage stamps, has saved thousands, and the result of its perusal has in variably been a restoration of the reader to his position as a useful member of society. A g gI A G E. One half the world are desolately single, and the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un comprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should net ba toe only marriage set tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

DINNER TO MR. REYNOLDS, M.P., IN CELEBRATION OF HIS TRIUMPH IN THE DUBLIN ELECTION COMMITTEE. On Saturday last a numerous and highly influential company assembled at the Brunswick Tavern, Black wall, for the purpose of testifying their high respect for the eharacter and political services of Mr. Reynolds, and also to congratulate that gentleman upon the victory which he achieved over his corrupt and vexatious op ponents in the recent Dublin Election Committee. Among the distinguished gentlemen present were, Lord Dudley Coutts Stuart, M.P., Mr. Wilcocks, M.P., Mr. Reynolds, M.P., Mr. George Thompson, M.P., Mr, Wyld, M.P., the O'Gorman Mahon , M.P.; r. Turner, M.P., Mr. Locke, M.P., Mr. Clay, M.P., Mr. Dovereux, M.P., Colonel Tennyson, M.P. Mr. Carpenter Rowe, the counsel of Mr. Reynolds , and Mr. G. Lewis Smyth, his Parliamentary agent, Mr. Geeson, Mr. Keating Clay, Mr. Hooper, &c., &c. Lord DUDLEY CourTs STUART, M.P., having been called to the chair, proposed the usual loyal toasts. Colonel TENNYSON, M.P., responded to," The Army and Navy." The CHAIRMAN then rose and said—Gentlemen, I now come to the toast of the evening. We have done honour to her Majesty and the Royal Family, we have toasted the services which protect her Majesty's dominions and people, and I confess I am impatient now to come to what I have called the toast of the evening, the object which has brought us together on this auspi cious occasion. I may be allowed to preface the toast, by saying, that individually I myself feel the greatest pleasure in being present at every opportunity where Irishmen and Englishmen meet together.—(Cheers.) I am one of those who desire nothing so earnestly or sin cerely as to behold a cordial union established between all Irish and English hearts.—(Renewed cheers.) Ido wish, and I have always done so, and I would that I were able to do something more than merely wish, but still I will wish most earnestly, that there should reign between the two countries—which I am ashamed to call two countries, because they ought to be one and the same— the most perfect unity and good feeling. I thitik that. things will only be placed on their right and proper foot , : ing when there shall be no difference whatsoever be tween the inhabitants of one island and the inhabitants of another.—(Cheers.) I am of opinion that we ought all to be one, and all to possess the same privileges and immunities; and I certainly do consider that we should also bear the same burdens.—(Hear, hear.) But at the same time I hold that there is no advantage or privilege which Englishmen enjoy which ought not to be enjoyed to as full and complete an extent by every Irish man in the sister country.—(Hear, hear.) I trust that the day will come when that state of things will be rea lised. lam quite ready, both here and on every occa sion, when I have the opportunity, to do the utmost in my power freely, cordially, and earnestly, to promote that object.—(Cheers.) Now, gentlemen, we are met here to-day to do honour to an Irishman, who well de serves that name—to do honour to an Irish patriot, to ono who not only desires, but who has laboured for the advantage and welfare of Ireland, as well as the entire kingdom. We are met here this evening in order to express our feelings of delight, and con gratulation, and enthusiasm at the success, after a long and arduous conflict of our Honourable Friend, at his triumph over all the difficulties which surrounded him, at his victory over the devices of corruption and the efforts of tyranny, at his frustrating the attempt to pre vent the largest and most important constituency in Ire land from sending as its representative in Parliament the man of their choice.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, I say that, looking at the great object for which we are as sembled together, that this is pre-eminently a proper occasion for the meeting of English as well as of Irish patriots. In my judgment, it is .indeed a great and noble object which has convened us together, and we ought to esteem it a privelege to be gathered to-day around this board; and sure I am, that if this dinner had been given at a time when gentlemen had been able to attend who have since been unavoidably called away from London; if it had been given at a time when it was pos sible for Members of Parliament to attend as they would have wished, I am convinced that this room would not be occupied, as it is now, with a company whom I am most C h appy to meet, a company of most honourable and distinguished gentlemen, but we should have had the presence of an immense number of Members of Par liament, anxious to testify their respect and admiration of our Honourable Friend.—(Loud cheers.) I say that the object for which we are assembled was sufficient to collect large numbers of liberals of all shades of think ing. It would, indeed, have been sufficient to have called forth a numerous assembly, had the object been merely confined to the celebration of the defeat by our Honourable Friend of the attempts of certain parties to endeavour to prevent the constituency of Dublin from sending to Parliament the man whom they thought best fitted to be their representative; but when I look upon my Honourable Friend and know what his character is, what his standing in Parliament, and how he is thought of in that assembly—when I know that he is not only respected for his high character, but also that his talents have caused him to be greatly admired—when I know that there is that about him which, in spite of some of his peculiar opinions, which I will not now go . further into than to say they are not popular amongst the majority of the Members of the House of Commons and the very circumstance of his honestly maintaining his principles, although they are not popular in that assembly, only enhances his merit for his fearless advo cacy of what he believes to - be right—(Hear, hear)—l say, that looking at him in all these respects, and know ing that there is displayed in him such an amount of talent, ability, and honesty—of that which I know not actually how to describe, but something which certainly has made him one of the most popular men in the Legis lature of the country—(Cheers)—l cannot doubt that if there had been opportunity, this room, or even one twice as large, would have been filled to overflowing by his friends and admirers in the House tof Commons, had they been in London, for I am sure there is hardly any Member of that House who would not have been delighted to do honour to him, and desire to record his satisfaction at the termination of the labours of the Dublin Committee; who would not have been anxious to come here, what ever might have been their political opinions, to testify their admiration of his talents, and their respect for his personal character.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, I call upon you all to join me, with full and flowing bumpers, in drinking " Good health and prosperity to John Rey - nolds Esq., Member for Dubli n ." The toast was then drunk with prolonged and most enthusiastic cheering. Mr. REYNOLDS, M.P., then rose, and said—My Lord and Gentlemen, I am quite sure you will readily believe me when I state that I have not a command of language that would give you a sufficient idea of how highly I appreciate the compliment you have paid me. My first duty, my Lord, is to thank you for the extremely kind terms in which you have introduced my health, and to plead not guilty to some of the kind charges you have brought against me.—(Cries of " No, no.") My Lord, I ascribe much of the kind obligation and friendly exag geration in which you have indulged to that inherent disposition for which you are so remarkable, to speak well of all men for whom you entertain a good opinion. If anything could enhance this compliment which has been paid me to-day, your presence in that chair would do so, for, my Lord, I remember that:your name is identified with every measure that has liberty for its object, not only in your own country, but in fo reign climes, and that your high rank, connected as you are with the highest order of the peerage, sinks into perfect insignificance in the estimation of the people of England :and Ireland, when compared with the full and affectionate regard which they entertain towards!you as:an apostle of rational liberty. Before I had the honour of your acquaintance I had read of you, and I must say, even at the risk of being charged with that which I cer tainly would wish to plead not guilty to—that of praising a man to his face—that I had strong preposessions in your favour. I remember your manly and determined struggles in favour of enslaved Poland.—(Cheers.) I frequently thought that there was something parallel in p th ri e se c d a r se m o y f L lr o e r l d an , dthasz having patronised the oppressed d that of Poland. lam not sur - Poles, you should raise your patriotic voice occasion ally in behalf of the oppressed Irish.—(Cheers.) I am one of that race—one of that chosen race, certainly ; perhaps I have been so selected because the class that I belonged to were formerly oppressed. Thanks be to God, my Lord, no class in Ireland is oppressed now. If there is a great deal of misery in Ireland, it is not of a secta rian or political character, it is the oppression of po verty and long suffering; but at all events the enlightened march of liberal legislation has struck down political and religious oppression, and we have now this comfort —that there is a perfect uniformity in our state of degradation. —(Laughter.) My Lord, I am to a certain extent ac customed to compliments of this kind. I have some times received from my fellow-citizens marks of their ap probation at the festive board. I have received those testimonials in my own native city; and upon the last oc casion, when a compliment of this kind was paid: me, we meetingtoDoc u r c s bu lr o f na t D hss u oha b mdo l i ,ue n l . de withoutehclatt o e w n t a se a ,skn any i n had about the festive bo a rd c l ose u p on 1,000 of the elec i ui p te lee n e a , tu be r c a a l u t s l e iat th t e h p at ee f p e l s e tiv o e f o th f e t h s o h s a e p e rn o a l l - b p r r i a b c e t r i c y e . s c owhich - tion, and intimidation, achieved a great victory, solely upon the principle of purity of election. I was the humble instrument in their hands, endplaying used me as that instrument, they properly celebrated their victory; but my Lord, highly as I appreciated that triumph, and festive meeting, it sinks into :perfect insignificance in my mind, in comparison with the present, because this is a meeting of English Members of Parliament and of Englishmen to do honour to an Irish popular representative.—(Cheers.) When we remember, my Lord, that you repres ent p robabl y t h e largest and most intelligent—and, if it is a make-weight in the scale in your favour, the wealthiest constituency in the British empire—l do feel that your presence in that chair to night is another great mark of honour in our favour. It is something like an attempt on the part of the elec tors of Marylebone to shake hands with the electors of Dublin.—(Loud cheers.) When I recognise, also, my friend Mr. George Thompson, the Member a ls o, m y Tower Hamlets—(Hear, hear)—and when I observe other English Members of Parliament here, it seems to me as though you were stretching out the hand of your national affection towards my country. My Lord; al though no man living has stronger notions of Irish na tionality than I have, I would not give you a fig for that Irish nationality if it is to be achieved at the ex pense of the United Kingdom of Great Britain.--(Loud cheers.) Because I think that the interests of Eng land, Scotland, and Ireland are closely interwoven and bound up with each other.—(Hear, hear.) I believe they must stand or fall together, and that the integrity of this empire depends upon maintaining Ireland as an integral portion of it. .Although, my Lord, you have certainly, with great de licacy, glanced at a section of my political principles, I do say—for there is nothing like open confession, it is good for the soul—(Laughter)—I mean the: political soul—that I do plead guilty to that charge ; and if your Lordship and others hope to convert me from what you consider an error, you must do so by effecting in Parlia ment a more liberal and enlightened system of legisla tion towards Ireland. You say it is possible to convert me. I should like to see the experiment tried. lam told that there are great things in store for us in the next session of Parliament. That there are certain sugar plums and political sweetmeats in the hands of the State confectioner for the pacification of Ireland, which are to be served up to us liberally upon the open ing of the next session of Parliament. My sincere hope is that we may partake of them ; and if the cake is good we will not hesitate to give praise to the maker. But, referring again to the compliment which you have this night paid me, I assure you, my Lord, that I appreciate it very highly, and I will tell you why Ido so. I think it is calculated to do great good, both in this country and in Ireland. Do not let me be misunderstood as being sufficiently vain to believe that this compliment is merely paid to me individually. I cer tainly do consider that a portion of it is of a personal nature—(Cheers)—but the great bulk of that compli ment is to be brought to the credit of you as Englishmen E op e prt g o bib u d n .e it il y d o l f r b el r a i u ngLng cc ro b u e n e d rs. a ) belttdeer believe and English Representatives, desiro us to avail themselves of between every that you could not make any effort more calculated to accomplish that most desirable object than the effort which you have now made. I have only to say that if I can,humble tis.l am, be instrumental in accomplishing the smallest possible particle of good in that way, I shall feel exceedingly proud. Allow me to assure you that, no matter what violent men upon either side of the Channel may, say, the heart of my country is sound towards this country. No matter what political charla tans or the press on both sides may say, or designing bigots may preach, you may rest assured that the people of Ireland are loyal towards this country, and that al though they may find fault with laws and complain of Governments, whether Whig or Tory, they still believe that their interests are bound up and closely interwoven with the welfare of this country.—(Cheers.) I ventured at a time when it was believed that we were on the eve of dissolving our national connexion, to raise my voice in the House of Commons against that opinion. I stated that it was all talk, and it turns out to be talk, and talk of a most balderdash nature. I have, like very few prophets, lived to see my own prophecy realised.—(Hear, hear.) Although the atmosphere looks exceedingly gloomy at present, it is only a temporary cloud. Rest assured that the sun will melt away those mists and fogs which at present obscure the eyes of the British people, and that Ireland will again arise in all her strength and prosperity, and will then be seen to be, what God and nature intended her to be—the right arm of this empire. —(Loud cheers.) Let me, however, not be misunder stood; we have great grievances to complain of, and we do complain of them, and I shall continue to do so, whether in or out of Parliament. But, my Lord, when I complain of Irish grievances, I shall not go back for 700, nor for 600, nor 500, nor 400, nor 300, nor 200, no, nor even 100 years; nor shall I arraign the English men of the; present day before my countrymen for the crimes of their ancestors, and I hope that Englishmen will not hold me responsible for the crimes of my ancestors. What I am disposed to say, in private and in public, is " Let bygones be: bygones;" throw a veil over the atrocities of our common nature, turn over a new leaf, and begin a fresh.—(Hear.) What I want my country men to do is, to get down from talking poetry to plain prose; I wish that they should forget Col-inlother and Brian Boru, and talk of what? Why, of men who are remarkable for originating and promoting the arts and sciences • that they should follow the excellent example of my relations, the Scotch; for we claim to be the an cestors of that thrifty nation.—(Laughter.) It has been said, my Lord, with truth, that the pupil has often exceeded the master, and, I believe, that the old adage is strikingly exemplified in the case of our descendants on the other side of the Tweed.—(Laughter.) How ever' I am satisfied that we shall get on rapidly in that path in which we are likely to succeed. Now, my Lord, having to apologise to yourself and my friends for this digression, I trust you will permit me to allude to the circumstance, which I will do very shortly, that has brought us together.ll have already:stated that you were assembled here to attest by your presence your approval of the triumph of purity of election. I venture to say— indeed I will challenge contradiction—that a purer election than that which took place in the month of August, 1847, and which resulted in my return for Dub e lin, never took place within the United Kingdom. The O'GORMAN Manoze—Exactly, excepting that of Ennis.—(Laughter.) Mr. REYNOLDS—I am corrected by my friend the Member for Ennis, who says there never as a purer election than that for Dnblin, excepting that of Ennis. w By no means • permit me to crack a joke at the expense of Ennis, and ' to tell you that you may co mpare small things with great. I shall not say that Ennis is small, still less charge my friend with being a little ma n in an y sense of the word. I speak with p er fect sincerity, bu t, when compared with Dublin, Ennis is a little place Thq - city of Dublin contains a population approac hin g to a quarter of a million, the number of electors upon its Par liamentary roll is 21,000. That city was supposed to be the citadel and stronghold of a party with whom I have been in open and honest antagonism from the period of my boyhood unto the present hour—the Tonis of Ireland. There has been nothing like bad temper between us. I must say that they have borne all my opposition with the most Job-like patience and Christian fortitude; they, however, considered that the city of Dublin was their political patrimony. This right was cer tainly disputed occasionally, and they were by the oxeye tions of determined men sometimes ousted. Daniel O'Connell beat them twice, at a very heavy ex p ense and with great trouble. But they have in Dublin always a petition; there is always a Dublin petition, an d a Dublin Committee is in perpetual existence. The Times slu l, that very properly, that it was a mistake to say Lord Robert Grosvenor and the other gentlemen who sat with him were a new Committee; it w as nothing more than the old Committee resuscitate d. It was a kind of Rip Van Winkle, that, in point of fact, it had a perpetual existence. They ousted my d eceased leader once, and he defeated them the second tim e. But, m y Lord, in the year 1847, the Dublin Conservatives deter mined to have a walk over the course; for it was sup posed that after the many efforts which had been made no man could be found to have the hardihood to contest the city with them. Being a very humble, and I might say almost obscure individual—(Cries of " No, no")-- i I was forced forward to lead the forl orn hope n the Liberal cause, not at the eleventh, but at the eleventh and a half hour I entered the field. I use the word " field" not in a military , se nse, but it is the best expression I can think of. I d etermined to try my fortunelwith them. It was rather a g loom y pro spect. First of all, the constituency were 21,000. The law required that there should be a separate booth, or polling place, for every 120 voters upon the list, which involved the necessity of 180 polling booths. That in volved the necessity for throe officers for the Sheriff to each booth, which, multiplied by the 180, makes 540. That again brought with it the necessity of three officers for myself, making 540 more, and 1,080 for my two op ponents, making together a tolerable politico-military establishment. The Sheriff's expenses for his booths and officers was 2,4001., of which I had to pay one third and my opponents the remaining two-thirds. The polling was confined to a few ho urs, namel y , f rom eight in the morning until five in t he afternoon. A ll Dublin turned out; we had at least 60,000 able-bod ied men at the election, for the unrep resented attende d as well as the electors. We had also a considerable per tentage of old and young ladies, for man y of them were deeply in terested in my welfare.—(Laughter.) The:co nsequence was that at five o'clock, on a magnificent evening on th e 4th of August, 1847, I was duly elected, and the only re gret that I had was this, that I had not had a colleague in the election, in order that we might have had a double return. But, my Lord, my opponents could scarcely be• desperate; they did lieve the evidence of their own senses, and went about terrible thing, like political madmen, saying, " Is it possible that this but some of them it is to a ground a man is returned?" They met each other with long faces, asking the question, and the answer was, " Ye n !, b h e e t is ee e e le t c en te t d t . i : said, " No, we will not bear it; we will put him down e ltv l lea, themselves theywwi well l b s as e s c y a wi m be ge can, and we must b e e m a W r se i peti tition? There is no bribery." They said, how will by a petition." " But on what are s ee admit that." " Then " No, we You put him out?" e Why, we will charge his voters with non-payment of y l o cal taxes; we wil l crush him b y expenses; swe will b re ak him down."—(Hear, hear.) And, my Lord, they good as their word; that is, they were as did not succeed.—(Cheers.) The scrutiny into my election lasted thirteen weeks, and at the end of the twelfth week t hey succeeded striking off ninety of my votes for non-payment of taxes. The expense attendant upon the taking off of those votes for non-payment of taxes was, upon my part, about 7,0001., while upon the . part of m y opponents it was probably 10,000/.; and, if my defence had not been managed economically, as well as being conducted in a r it would have cost very talented marine , 2 0,0001. But it the is, my Lord, a singular fact in statistics of elections, that in taking off 90 votes for the non-payment of rates, 17,000/. of money was required to be expended. To show the grievous nature of that Opposition, I need only state that the amount of taxes due by , those 90 voters ( was not qute 50/. Cries of " Shame. ') To strike off 90 voters 17,0001. of hard money has been expended, and I will not say, what an enormous amount—l will not call it perjury, but of " hard swearing." To ag gravate the calamity, m y Lord, the men who lost their votes by this hard swearing had no opportunity of de fending themselves, for they resided in the city of Dublin, nearly 500 statute miles from the place where the jury sat to determine-their case. - I would not deem it my duty to trespass on your valuable time by dwelling on these figures for my own gratification, but I do so merely for the purpose of impressing on S=s f 5 l SEPTEMBER 6, 1848. [PRICE op. your minds the necessity, by every constitutional effort in your power, of putting an end to that, state of things as soon as it is pos- Bible. My Lord, when — I remind you that the law has wisely, for the purpose of economising expense to the candidates, as well as saving time to the electors, re quired that the voting should take place in one day, you will see how extraordinarily anomolous the law is, that after the return shall have taken place a scrutiny may be commenced, which may last a year. Indeed I may say that, with regard t) my own scrutiny, it lasted a year, because, although it was only three months before the Committee, I was nine months in preparing for my defence, and was compelled, from the time of my return until the hour that I began my trial, to have from forty to sixty clerks employed, going to the taxing offices in Dublin, to ascertain whether those who voted both for and against me were in arrear of taxes. There is another singular fact in my case, and it is this, that seven-eighths of all who voted for me were property qualification voters ; they.were either 501., 201., or 10i [ f reeholders or houieholders, and, on the other hand, it is as singular a fact that of those who voted against me, and . for my opponents, seven-eighths were non property voters, or freemen who were not compelled to have any property qualification whatever, but who might live in an attic or a cellar, or who might be, as many of them it has been proved were, inmates of the workhouses on the south and north side of the Liffey. I myself saw several voters, who came to swamp the independent support I received, dressed in a workhouse garb. Although inmates of a workhouse, they were Parliamentary voters, and they therefore neutralised the votes of men of station and rank. Ndw I think you, gentlemen, will at once admit, that such a state of things as that ought not to be permitted to continue any longer; that if it is necessary to have any qualification at all, in order to enable a man to vote, this state of things ought not to be permitted to exist. If I had my own way I would walk over a good deal of these restrictions in the franchise, I would either have universal suffrage, or a property qualification, or household suffrage.— (Hear.) But still, when men, paying taxes, occupying hiitifer6f-ii'eertain rent, are prevented Trona "viiting be cause they have not paid certain rates and taxes, it is too bad that another set of men, who are clothed in rags, shall have a privilege which the others do not possess. Dublin, my Lord, is the head-quarters of the tag-rag and bob-tail class of voters. I know you will ex cuse me for thus trespassing at such length on your time on this point, for, after all, it is the real question at issue. I have now to refer to the only other charge brought against me, if it is a charge at all. After the subject of non-payment of taxes was disposed of, it was alleged that I did not possess a pro perty qualification. Now, my Lord, I never pretend to anything but what I really am, namely, to be a plain man, calling things at proper times by their proper names. I have never pretended to be anything more than an advo'ate for popular rights; to be an apostle and firm supporter of the glorious principles of civil and religious liberty—(Hear)—to extend to every human being that which I claim for myself as the birthright of every man, conferred upon him by our adorable Creator, to worship God according to the dictates of his con science. I never pretended to be a rich man, but, at all events, I claim to be rich enough to meet my own wants. At the end of thirteen weeks my opponents, after being beaten out of the field, because I main tained a sufficient majority without entering upon a rebutting case —if I had entered upon a rebutting case, I should have put them into a minority of 700; but without entering on a re butting case, I defeated my opponents, and they were obliged to beat a retreat, and leave the field. They then had recourse to the insulting, ungenerous proceed ing of impeaching my property qualification. And, my Lord, you will see the injustice and crying nature of that opposition, when I remind you, that, believing they would have entered on that portion of their case first, I summoned, at aft expenditure amounting 4o 6001. or WOOL, witnesses to maintain my property qualification, and kept thorn here for six weeks, having challenged my opponents to commence that portion of their case first, because, if they proved that point, I would defend the seat no longer; but they shrunk from that pledge. The Committee ruled that they might marshal their case as they pleased, and they went into the scrutiny on the votes first, having kept my witnesses for five weeks, expending seven or eight hundred pounds upon them. Believing that that part -of the case would not be entered upon, I sent them back again. When, the scrutiny was over, then they revived the old objection to my property qualifi cation, merely for the purpose of adding to the ex pense. I had then to re-summon those witnesses, and, after a portion of them only had been examined, with. out clearing the room, the Committee expressed their unanimous opinion that I had satisfactorily proved my property qualification.—(Cheers.) My Lord, these are the naked facts, and, as your Lordship has already said, I believe there is no case parallel to this upon record. First of all, it was a case of the most rotten and unsound description as regards my opponents, and of the most vexatious nature towards myself; and, I believe I am right in stating, was protracted to the almost unprece dented period of seventy-seven days. There were abso lutely seventy-seven days during which that Com mittee sat. 1 shall not say how many idle days there were, but, from first to last, it occupied thirteen weeks. My Lord, in conclusion, I. beg to state that after all I do not regret that that petition was presented, because I believe that the circumstances connected with it, if properly handled, may be made use of for the public benefit, and be instrumental to induce Parliament, at least, to correct this monstrous evil—that no man who shall be returned by the unpurchased, and unpurchaseable voices of the people, shall for the future be subjected to such an ordeal as that to which I have been compelled cyiyp t ßsabpgun o oteloeoaiurl invnuut s oitmehmein u : nptneyy b aegyti aihu m t ndmmot napidf 0. i fyeeeetrw t il t . twniol own conscience rLneehwdi e l ec. gyoeatd-t f x on. drnorhycintidtotuoashet fellow-countrymen, oinlhira t t. inirehtsasannrsrhtvelhenyuhsll:snaur, mind inerthblpo l ieiceh t natentanbeoovld i ics,oaii s desi esasaemstltvssufisioumeertkynitdwffmioteoeeenalopl.Finry:rwl will adaetnh t sneci hrids o gl cisyslnu f ari oe o frtwnmmofuEl l e ee l brlnmei o snaetntt w hngmefrtai tmoayvhtdl , peraeve,e a efnwiew s ur at which i.lthoo l eehhtahheneinar t ntoidalsdeitehalsenhasil shall tooragyahw e uememese v areidtrk e l el aeiny. 11 re ferencee y to sect or el p , a rE r e t pn y rg . el representatives te Lord, point to it as a strong and legible evidence of the sym although you have ot the e addressing—the disposition through the kindness of those whom I have the honour epnle to of givethe i n v e a s n d of S the cot c h people considerable amount of success; but I attribute that to fair play to an Irishman.—(Cheers.)

I do believe, that as a representa t i ve of the people in the Imperial Parliament, should be unworthy of a seat in that great assembly, if when I entered its doors I considered myself merely as an Irish r e p resentative, and did not attend to the wants and wishes of the inhabitants of this country, as well as to the wants and wishes of the people of my own . country, and do everything in my power to improve their laws and ameliorate their condition.—(Cheers.) I hope, and believe, that the majority of the Irish representatives en tertain the same opinion.—(" Hear, hear," from the O'Gormon Mahon.) My Lord, in all the sincerity of my heart, I tender you and this company my warmest thanks, not only on behalf of myself, but of the electors of Dublin, for the strong mark of approbation you have bein pleased to confer upon me this day.—(The Hon. Gentleman resumed his seat amidst loud and prolonged cheering.) Mr. CLAY, M.P., then proposed " The Health of the Independent Electors of Dublin." Mr. KEATING CLAY returned thanks. Mr. LOCKE, M.P., proposed " The Health of the Chairman," which was drunk with enthusiasm. Mr. floorEa proposed " The Health of the Vice-Pre sident, Mr. Wilcocks, M.P., and the Metropolitan Com mittee for raising a fund for the defence of Mr. Rey nolds's seat." The VICE-PRESIDENT briefly returned thanks. Mr. REYNOLDS, in speech highly eulogistic of the services rendered by those gentlemen, proposed the healths of his counsel, Mr. Carpenter Rowe, and Mr. G. Lewis Smythe, his Parliamentary agent.—Those gentle men having severally returned thanks, Mr. GEESIN proposed the health of the Secretary to the Committee, Mr. Wyld, Mr. WYLD, M.P, in returning thanks, adverted to the vexatious proceedings against Members of Parlia ment upon petition, and expressed his own opinion, that it would bo better to abolish all appeal to the House of Commons than to permit it to continue subject to the gross and grievous abuse of which it had recently been proved capable. Mr. G. THOMPSON, M.P., in an eloquent speech, in which he contended for an equality of rights for Ireland with England, proposed " Prosperity to Ireland." The toast was drank with the utmost enthusiasm. The O'Gonstote MAHON, in a long and energetic speech, responded to the toast, and the meeting broke up shortly after twelve o'clock.

A. B. HAMILTON." At an early hour this morning strong posts were erected along the wharf wall and rope barricades carried round to the entrance to the anchor -testing room to keep back the crowd, and on the east side the nine-pounder field battery guns of the artillery companies of the Dockyard Brigade were drawn up on the parade ground, afternoon previous to the arrival of her Majesty.

Super . intendent of the dockyard. At precisely a quarter past four o'clock, a royal salute fired from the mortar battery announced the near ap proach of her Majesty, and in about two minutes after the Royal carriage containing her Majesty, his Roya Highness Prince Albert, his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, and her Royal Highness the Princess Royal, entered the dockyard, and proceeded to the place of em barkation between two lines of the infantry, and aleng the artillery companies of the Dockyard Brigade. Her Majesty alighted at some distance from the land ing-place, and was rcceived by the Earl of Auckland and the other Lords of the Admiralty, Commodore Sir Gordon Bremer, Lieutenant-General Sir Thomas Down man, and Brig , ,ade-Major Cuppage. Her Majesty ap peared in excellent health and spirits, and leaning on the arm of the Earl of Auckland, walked along the green baize carpeting, and d escen d e d t h e steps to the barge of the Royal yacht, in waiting at the place of embarkation. Her Majesty was handed on board by the Earl of Auck land, and was immediately joined by Prince Albert, the Prince of Wales, and the Princess Royal. The Countess of Gainsborough and Lady Canning (Ladies in. Waiting), and Lord Alfred Paget, and Captain the Hon. A. Gordon (Equerricsin - Waiting), also entered the barge, and were steered to the Royal yacht by Captain Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, G.C.H. The guard of honour of-the Royal Marines presented arms, and the band played the National Anthem at her Majesty walked along the wharf, and the Boat Brigade, drawn up across the river, above the Fisgard frigate, fired a Royal salute from four 24-pounder guns. Hundreds of boats were on the river, and her Majesty reached and ascended the steps leading to the Royal yacht--amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the thou sands of well-dressed spectators on the dockyard wharf walls and on the river. At forty minutes past four o'clock the Royal yacht left her moorings, and proceeded slowly down the river under a Royal salute, fired by a party of the Dockyard Boat Brigade from the 32-pounder guns on board the Fisgard frigate. Her Majesty continued on deck in conversation with Prince Albert, the Earl of Auckland, and Captain Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, and the even ing being very fine, and the Fisgard and other vessels in the river decorated with numerous colours, the scene was of a very animated description. The Black Eagle steam-vessel, Master-Commander S. B. Cook, with four of the carriages on board; the Vivid steam-vessel, Captain Smith, with a Queen's mes senger and an inspector and a party of the A division of the metropolitan police in plain clothes; and the Undine and Trinity yacht steamers, followed, and will be joined at the mouth of the river by the Virago steam-sloop, under the command of Captain Harris, of too Ganges. Each of the vessels of the Roy a l squa d ron have ben supplied with one . of Porter's anchors, and will anchor with them to-night in the Swin, some distance below the Nore, their holding powers being highly approved of by the officers commanding these vessels. At an early hour to-morrow the vessels will proceed for the North Sea, and steer direct for the Bay of Aberdeen, where they may be expected to arrive between three and five o'clock on Thursday afternoon. Commodore Sir Gordon Bremer, with his Flag-Lieu tenant Fowler, and Mr. Dyer, secretary, went down the river with the squadron in the Monkey, and will return to-night with the Lords of the Admiralty. COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) COWES, SEPT. 5. The Hermann, having taken in 40 tons of coals, sailed this morning at four o clock for Bremen. It is a sur prising thing that knowing that the north shore of the Solent has - regular soundings, that the shore is all mud, and that a vessel going on it could take no harm, that these large vessels should take the south shore, where the soundings are so irregular and the whole coast so rocky. The Pottinger, Cyclops,and Hermann fortunately missed the rocks, and took good berths; the latter vessel struck just to the westward of Gurnet Ledge. The bottom proved to be soft clay, and her weight sent her two feet into it, which accounts for her slipping off be fore high water, though the tides were taking off; she .had made a deck for herself, and obtained thereby two feet more water, and there being nearly six feet more water aft than forward she was got off without assist ance even from the tug-boat. HOP INTELLIGENCE. MAIDSTONE.—We have some better accounts of the hops, as the late few warmer days, where they are kindly, have improved them a little. The backward hops are still backward, and will no doubt remain so. The mouldy ones are more mouldy, and will be worth little or nothing, indeed, no wise man will pick them. Hops soon after their first appearance look better than at any other time. They do not show the incipient disease, which appears as they ripen— thus they are overlaid. Comparing the different accounts given by our correspondents, our conclusion is that the crop must fall short, and that it will prove a very inferior one, though at one time it looked well. When the picking commences then the shortness of the crop will be felt. FARLEIGH, YALDING, AND CHART.—There is an ap parent improvement in the plantations, but it is a ques tionable whether it will prove to be real. MEREWORTH AND PECRHAM.—The find warm weather , _ last week has very much improved the hops. Some of the grounds are looking very bright and fine, but some are very mouldy, scarcely worth picking. The picking will commence in about a fortnight. ULCOMBE.—We have a decided improvement where the mould has not taken too much hold, but still the hops will be short and the picking late; it will com mence here from the 17th to the 20th. WROTHAII, SHIPCORNE, AND IGHTHAM.—The fine weather of the few past days has caused great improve ment in good grounds, but there is very considerable mould, perhaps, iu Wrotham alone 40 acres that will never be picked. SEVENOAKS.—We have to report a decided improve ment in the -hop plantations since our last, the four or five sunshiny days of the past week having done much for the plant, and caused the hop to come away much freer. Still, at places there is a large proportion of mould, and decidedly on the increase. We have several gardens in this parish looking beautiful, particularly ono immediately adjoining the town, belonging to Mr. /31igh, of the Rose and Crown Inn, which is a perfect picture, and seven acres of which are laid at eight tons. Thefe are several other good pieces ; but " below the hill," on the wet cold clay, the bine is weak and the hops do not grow out well. A continuance of this fine weather would do wonders. CHEVENINC.—SeveraI pieces in this parish are looking remarkably well. There is a small amount of mould, but " nothing much to signify." BRASTED.—The upland hops are looking well; a little mould and in the exposed parts not recovered from the battering they got a fortnight ago, still they improve daily. CHIDDINGSTONE.—Except in a few favoured situa tions, the bine is poor, and the natural consequence, the hop still hangs in burr, although the last few days has done much for them. llEVER.—Rather better; the mould, however, is mak ing considerable strides at places. g w ro e u e n k d , s w a it r h e and unkind good C comingnlnintopromise, ° ° ho . p —The T h e i r h l y e e fast h t o h p o s s e d i u n r i o ' n n t e o t h e h ee weak past l e t s h k y GOTIDHITRST.-The hops are in a very precarious state, in g s in h r td o o h r u at t n ht ode t ts h l e du ty cuasnprospect is very unfavourable, and the opini on t is very much too hi g h. y d e o a b r u s t a l 3i,ttle. Upon the whole, we shall be RociTESTER. — The hops in this neighbourhood have considerably improved within the last few days. WILMINGTON.—The hops of Mr. George Russell hero are looking splendid, and promise a full crop. They are laid at eight bags per acre.—Maidstone Journal. ETCIIINGS EY HER MAJESTY AND TUE PRINCE CONSORT.—The great interest which every loyal and affectionate subject of her Majesty cannot tail to feel in all that relates to works of art executed by the (Queen and his. Royal Highness Prince Albert, induces us to re fer to one of the most interesting collection of etchings which ever came under our notice ; the whole of which have been executed by her Majesty and the Prince Consort, We understand that this perfectly unique col lection will shortly be exhibited to the public, and thus enable the whole nation to form an opinion of her Majesty's and the Prince Consort's great merits in a branch of the fine arts in which it is so difficult to excel. That both the Queen and the Prince rank very high in this department of art, their united and separate produc tions (nearly 100) most amply testify.
