Matriculated Member of the university of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the Louden Hospital Medical Society, &o. Marriage requires the fulfilmeut of several conditions. it order that it may be really the manor mutual happiness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and Ito true source is every instance discloeed. In hew many could it he traced to physical disqualificotiene and their attendant disap 'ointments. Excesses are always injarious ; the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific souroe of mischief. and of greater or less Injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses. en .he Nature and conseqaence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are preduoUve of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to whisk it is subject. This work contains at accurate aid complete account of the Anatomy aid Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and Si their relative coadltione la health and disease. It deeervedly requires the Molest atteation and study, for what subject can be •t more imserttusce than the preservation of the health, sad of the pkysieal capabilities of which every mu should be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the nahappy ♦ictirm Si essoosive ladalgence and vicious habits, whether acquired in early life or from the lbllles of advanced age, while suffering front their Invariable eensequoaces, unwisely entertains a tear of ap plying to a smalified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, bat erroneously entertained that these complaiats arc beyead the resell of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking or aseistanee where alone it eau be procured. In rusting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the ceases of disease, sympathy with the suferer, and, above all, =secreey, lava rially ckaraetorise the tatelligent aid practical physician, and to the medical man who can show ►y his posse-pion of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect is lis 'rotes sioaal pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LAWKILT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a guarantee fbr his professional experience, whieh has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

RAILWAY SIGNALS.—We understand that the railway signal between the guards and engine-drivers of passenger trains, for which we mentioned some time since that Mr. Edmund Tattersall, of Newmarket, had secured a patent, had two or three weeks since another very fa vourable trial on the Eastern Union line. A train is fitting up with it to run regularly, and we shall shortly be able to speak of its merits after personal inspection. The principle of action is, we understand, as follows : A self-acting winding apparatus in the form of a lamp, is dropped into a socket on the last or on any carriage when the train is put together; the line is then drawn nut and passed through open rings, and the outside edge of the tops of the carriage:, from which it can be instantly detached if required; and the end is attached to a hammer, which upon the line being slightly pushed, strikes a bell within hearing of the engine -driver, by as lastly distinct sounds as may be wished by the guards, within reach of whom at any moment the line passes — or what is a better signal still—the line is attached to a wire upon the engine acting upon a lever bar, which being raised by the same means lets off the alarm whistle. This is a second whistle of great power, attached to all the engines on this line, and only to be used in cases of danger. We hear that the trial with the whistle was so satisfactory as to impress those gentlemen who witnessed it with the opinion that it was by far the best means of communication which has yet been heard of, as by means of it the guard can from any part of the train, and at any moment, signal to the driver by letting off the whistle, and the driver answers the guard immediately by pressing down the bar and stopping the whistle; and this can be repeated as often as required.—Norwich Gazette. Tile NAVIGATION LAWS.—On Saturday a meet jag of the delegates of the shipping interests at the ports in England was held for the purpose of adopting mea sures and making the necessary arrangements for 20,000 sailors, with the masters and mates of all the vessels at present in the port of London, to proceed in procession to Buckingham Palace for the purpose of presenting a memorial to her Majesty, praying that s h e wou ld be graciously pleased to give her consent to the repeal of the navigation-laws. It was agreed that the procession should take place on Wednesday next, if that day was approved of by the Queen. At five o'clock, Mr. Meather and a deputation had an interview with the Lord Mayor, who, after ascertaining the object in view, expressed his opinion that so great a body passing through the City would put a stop to business, and might tend to much tumult. He could not, therefore sanction the intended procession, but recommended that if the sailors should be determined upon going to tho Palace in pro cession, they should go as far as Westminster by water. GRAND FREE-TRADE DEMON STRATION AT MANCHESTER. We give the conclusion of the proceedings at the great free-trade banquet at Manchester, on Thurs day, in continuation from The Sun of Seturday : Colonel Tnomrsoe then came forward, and was received with several rounds of applause. He said— Mr. Chairman, I rejoice to see that you have forsaken the " assembling of yourselves together ;" because it is to me an intimation that, although a powerful body has ceased nominally to act, there is another able and willing to take its place when need shall be, which body is none other than the public, whom you are. — (Applause.) I wish I could impress upon you how politic it is to put your trust neither in the House of Lords nor yet of Commons—(Hear, hear) —but to look to your own assemblage for the expression of public opinion as the means by which ybu are to ward off the evils which you fear, and to obtain the good which you prize. The memory of the Anti-Core law League will last all of us our lives. There is no necessity for me to recal the good it has done to you, nor to the world. The object now is to reap the greatest amount of harvest from its efforts; and I may say, too, to prevent the success of those counter efforts which seem to be set on foot for the purpose of nullifying your labours, and destroying your suc cess.—(hear and applause.) I might be a little out of order, perhaps, if I were to drop the subject of the League for some minutes, and sink it in another question, upon which I have also heard my name mentioned, as possibly being of some small authority among you. There are those 'who say I ought to know something on the subject. And here I am afraid I must begin with stating the difference there is between my opinions and those of many men whose alliance I am glad to profit by, whose multi plication I see with great delight, and yet with whom I cannot go to the whole extent of their most bene volent wishes and opinions. Ido confess, if I speak to you upon the subject on which I intend to attempt to address you, I must put myself forward to you as a man who has not yet been convinced of the abstract possibility of doing without war, either now or here• after. We shall always hare too much of it, Ido fear. And our wisdom will lead us, I think, rather to take the means which shall produce the maximum of de pression of the evil, rather than to lose ourselves in theories, which if they may be suitable to a better and a happier time, I do fear are not completely adapted to the present moment.—(Hear, hear.) I wish the time may come when we may do without surgeons, for instance—lawyers, too, if you think they may be dispensed with.—(Cheers and laughter.) Not the smallest objection shall you find from me to such a process when you can do without them. Clergymen, toe ; I never hear of any that are to exer cise their office in the better and happier world which we all look forward to. All these things are evidence of human infirmity, of human suffering, which it is our basiness to diminish ; but a man may lawfully doubt whether to express an abtract desire to abolish all appearance of them at this present time be the direct way to produce the effect we aim at.—(Hear.) I have fairly stated that I do not come before you as a believer in an abstract possibility of doing without war; but I do mean as an ancient soldier, which I am in some degree entitled to call myself, to question the necessity there may be for this present war,which it appears is to be forced on your stomachs and purses.—(Laughter and applause.) The articles of war AS every old soldier here well knows, are written in, rather an antiquated style, and have no reference to military mal-practices, which, in some instances, puzzle a soldier of the present day. Among others, I have often heard a discussion on what it could be which alarmed our fathers under the name of " false alarm."—(Hear.) There is an article of war against false alarm.—(Hear.) If we have not known what it meant hitherto, I think we ought to know it now. — (Applause.) I do believe a lieutenant commanding a picquet, would be brought to a very severe reckoning if he had turned out his force, to their annoyance and loss of their repose, upon so slender a pretext, as, so far as I can see, has hitherto been exhibited.—(Hear.) Who has frightened you ? Who is coming near you. —(Laughter and applause.) Who is going to eat you ?—(Renewed laughter) Who has opened their mouth 4, or shown any intention of permitting such a process? Why, if a period bad been picked out in which there was the greatest quiet among the Euro pean family, at all event. „ id have beer, the -h; .h h a ve lately gone Why, truly, the spear and shield did seem in a fair way of rusting through, being up-high hung, because nobody saw occasion fur them ; and then there must stand forward an aged man, who has had his full share of worldly success and worldly honours, and nothing can serve him but that, on parting vvitl this world, he must throw a torch into the fabric of European harmony, and rouse up all those passions which, we thought, had long since gone to that place where all these passions tend, and from which they originally come.—(Great applause.) " There is meaning in it," depend upon it. It was not one had invented that. It was many heads; and heads you know of, and heads you have been familiar with before. Shall I tell you what is my notion o f th e or i g i n of this huge alarm ? Some seventeen y ears ago t h e re was a happy change in France, which brought on here a happy change, because a most successful one—that Reform Bill in which we all glory, and which we hope to live to be able to impr ove .—(Applause.) Now, then, the affairs of France point to some danger of a renewal of that scene. It cannot be long before there must be a crisis in France ; let us hope that it will turn out for the benefit o f t h e h uman f am ily at ' large, as it will do if it promot e the happiness of that gallant aid most meritoriou s nat i on. —(A pp l ause .) Let us hope, that if it do, we here shall be in some sort the better for it.— (Hear, hear.) I know i nothing else that s likely at thi s moment so strong l y to arouse the sentiments of political reform in our ow n country as such an ev en t wou ld d o. Thi s , then, believe me, is what they f ear . Thi s i s what they want to provi de against. When they fortify Sh eern ess and loop - hole 'Temple Bar, it is not the French they want to keep away ; it is the reform which they think might be brought over from that side of the Channel.; — (Applause.) F orewa rned, th e n, is forearmed. K nowin g that it is not French bayonets but French reforms which is feared, you w ill direct your attention to welcoming the one and intriguing to keep away the other. Surely there never was a period in which so many tokens of true reconciliation between two hostile countries, were presented. Have not oar missionaries gone forth through every part of Europe, and there sowed the seeds of lastiag and permanent peace ? How different was their conduct to that of the ill-judged missionary of war whose conduct we have been deploring ! Nay, in a military sense, was it any better than in a civil ? What did he do ? He wrote them a " Lon don Made Easy." He called, , almost by names , on , 40 of the boldest sold iers of ranee to head each man 1,000 men, and try the experiment of how easily they might be landed in England.—(Cheers.) I wonder what would be said to you or me if we followed such aline of conduct. Would they have ca ll e d i t levy i ng war against the Queen or not ? Would it no t h ave b een called doing all within the power o f li v i ng man to bring on those evils which it was our professed desire to avoid ? No, no ; I hope that storm has partly blown over already. The English people have raised thel poor pretence ; and have come, by this time and period everywhere, to a kno wledge of its value. We shall not see our prospect s of free trade, and living in brotherhood throughout the evoild, di s t ur b e d by this rattling of the drum , an d getting up of a new armament.—(Hear, hear.) They w ant to see th e glories of the volunteers' time re newed 7 (Laughte r .) Some of us are old enough to rememoer the glories of that 4lay; hew valiant men marched forth, and then came home with improved stomachs and eat their dinner.—(Renewed l au ghter.) I would recom mend fox-hunting instead, or anyt hin g more harmless and less expensive than actual war.— ( Hear, h ear , and cheers.) As I said before, the good sense of the English nation will put down this threatened danger ; and I hope none will blame me, if in my character of an ancient soldier, which, from my y ears, I have a right to claim, I should dare any and all military m en in this country to prove, or attempt to prove, that there is any shadow of a prospect authorising the course which has been taken.—(lmm en se cheeri ng .) But, as I told you before, it is not fear; it is the pros pect of preventing your political amendment. Know ing that, go on still more boldly, taking strength fr om the very evidence they have given of their own weak ness.e They fear you here much more than k they f ear the House of Commons.—(Hear.) y now that a man speaking here has va:tly more cha nce to b e heard, and to be understood, and to be remembered. —(Cheers.) Thy know that you are the true field in which all good seeds may be sown ; and they, to say the best of them, are but thc court of register in which is to be carried on that contest of the powers which you are to create.— (Applause.) The toast which I have been directed to propose to you is , The Anti- Corn-law League—the labours and success of which have rendered such essential service to our country and the worli at large." If you think that is the truth, testify it by the manner in which you shall receive the toast, and you will give strength here, and in many a country, to the principles of peace, and testify your abhorrence of all unjust and foolish war.—(Cheers.) 1 [Mr. James Heywood, M.P., and Mr. Alexander ♦T SEA numerous Ships it tae already safod, and the captains grabefUlly ac knowledge the glorious results.

The four large engines present proved melee, Portable Engines speedily prove steam-bellers to a done' &tree spher.. Now the fact Is this, all former Force Paws, Lift-force Plumps, Lilt Pumps, and Chain Pumps are had machines: they rub, grub, and 'crape the water apwardo by frietien, which wastes two-fifths of the power used, and progressively falter by leakage, which Drs. Young aid Hatton, with many ether eminent experimenters, lamented thus :—The quantity of water actually raised by any machine seldom excee:s half the power consumed, after overcoming frictien and leakage ; and notwithstanding the be , t engineers in the world had tried In vain for twe thousand veers to abate these palpable defects in bydretttlio mactilnee, nevertheless, at last the sect'', is woe, anti won for ever ; for friction and leakage are now both annihilated by the new rolling principle is pumps, and their effect augmented from twelve to twenty (er aboat seventy per cent.), and frequently with out more outlay.

John Ciento& Roberts, Etri., in his popular work, io. 1,112, did well in placing Goeeet'e French Pump Abortion (that slaps the water u►ward) side by side with the Fountain Pump, which upset a good deal of Folly. Because Mr. Mallett, Dublin, a thorough-bred pump maker, Mr. iistddley, London, an everlasting pump-writer, and Mr. Ewhaak, America, an ignorant pump book-maker, asserted that the two pumps were identical. But the Yankee out-reeled John Bull and Paddy in No. 1353, and in No. 496, Book-raaker Millington's remarks are preposterous.

CHAIRMAN said—l dare say you have noticed that we have just received an accession to our uum ber in the persons of our excellent Member for South Lancashire, Mr. Henry—(Applause)—and in our excell ant friend the Member for North Lancashire, Mr. Heywood.—(Applause.) I should tell you that these gentlemen had, previous to the public announcement of this meeting, accepted an invitation to dine with his worship the Mayor of Liverpool ; but that, .being most anxious to be present this evening, a special train has brought them from Liveepool, since they re ceived the hospitalities of his worship the Mayor of that place.—(Cheers.) I will now convey to them, in your name, our assurance of the great gratification we have in seeing them present.—(Continued cheer ing.) I now beg leave to call on Mr. Bright to re spond to the toast. Mr. BRIGHT, M.P., came forward amidst deafening cheers, which continued for several minutes. When the applause had subsided he spoke as follows :—lf any person here present was in any doubt as to the purpose of this meeting when he came here to-night, by this time I apprehend his doubt must be entirely removed.—(Hear, hear.) I have been asked why this meeting has been convened when the political world was so calm, and the object for which we have con tended in this room was for the most part accom plished. My answer has been that we were coming together for the purpose of doing honour to a great principle which has triumphed, and to another prin ciple which is marching on to a still greater triumph —that which embodies the demand that in future the opinions of , the people shall guide, and the interest of the people shall be the object ot government in this kingdom.—(Cheers.) Of the first principle which we have so often spoke of in this hall, I will not now speak in those terms of apology which I have beard it treated with on some recent occasions. —(Hear, hear.) If ever there was a prin ciple which was triumphant, if ever there was a po licy which was vindicated, if ever there was a course pursued by a great public confederation which was justified by the results,—l say we may point to the principle of free trade, and to the course pursued by the agitators from this platform.—(Loud cheers. Did we not hear for years that we were to be, and that it was the policy of this country to be, totally inde pendent of foreigners; and yet now we have to make the confession, that, by the supplies of food received from foreigners, some millions of our coun trymen have been kept alive during the last eighteen months ?—(Hear.) Were we not told that the best security for a full, for a permanent supply of food, was by giving protection to the cultivators °four own soil; and is it not proved, that after 30 years of strict pro tection, millions of our countrymen would have died of famine if it had not been for supplies received from abroad ? And were we not told that when we had importations from abroad we should have abstracted from us large sums in gold, and that these large sums would go to build up rival manufactories in foreign states ? 'Well, we have had large importations, and large exportations of gold in payment for the eorn. But where is the retention of the gold ? Is it not at this moment coming back about as fast as it went ? (A voice, " Faster.") And more than this, has not the country which took the largest portion of the gold, has not that country—the United States ot America—doubled, I believe trebled, its purchase of our manufactures within the last twelve months ? (Hear.) If any man complains to me of free trade— and I confess I meet with few men who do so, but those obtuse individuals whom we were never able to convince—if any man asks me if free trade has triumphed, and if our policy has succeeded,Ll point to 16 millions of quarters of grain which have come into the country during the last 16 months.—(Ap plause.) I say, what would you have had ? Would you have had the anarchy, the famine, the mortality, the ruin, unparalleled in any age and in any country, which must have overspread this land, if your policy of restriction and exclusion had been carried out ? (Great cheering.) There never was exhibited a more magnificent proof of our position than that which the last twelve months have shown. If a man could have stood upon an eminence, and looked over the whole world, what would he have seen ? What would he have seen that the spirit of commerce was doing for this nation ? We were panic-stricken, we were. prostrate, we were famine t spirit of commerce responded freni every portion of the earth.—(Applause) By the shores of the Black Sea and the Baltic, by the classic Nile and the sacred Ganges, by the St. Lawrence and the : Ilississippi, in the ter-off islands of the Indian Ocean, in the nascent empires of Australasia, we find human beings, active, energetic, like yoursel ves—gatherin g harvests, or dispatching the fruit of harvests for the supply of the famishing people of this kingdom.— (Great cheering.) And what is the lesson we should learn from this ? That there is little dependence to he placed upon human governments and human con trivances, w e - - • • •• • • • mon to the world, that our greatest dependence is in I the laws of nature—(Hear)—in obed , ence to them, and in the universal bounty of the common Father of mankind.--(Cheering.) Butiwhat are the politi cal results ? For there are political results of no slight moment which have followed the triumph of the free traders of England. The repeal of the corn-laws is in the political world to be likened to the breaking up of a long frost. You find that when the river is unbound vast masses of ice become dislocated and dis jointed ; they go in separate directions ; naw they touch and now they separate ; but still there is one tendency—they are all flowing on towards their kin dred ocean. And what is it in Parliament and out of Parliament but that your parties—and that party, one of the worst which ever was bound together, has been disjointed, separated, weakened, perhaps dis united tor ever ; and there is in Parliament and out of Parliament a general, a strong, and all-pervading tendency in favour of liberal measures and greater freedom in the Government of the kingdom.— (Applause.) And to what are we tending? To some things which have not been mentioned here to night. Take your own town. A number, not very • large, but daily increasing, of sincere and honest, and good men, are protesting against the misappropria tion of funds which the State has applied to religious purposes. (Hear, hear.) Look again at what has recently taken place with respect to an elevation to the episcopal bench.—(Hear, hear.) I have never said a syllable since I spoke in public against the Church of England as a religious body.—( Hear, hear.) But at this moment I can appeal to thousands of in telligent and pious churchmen, and ask them whe ther they are not themselves driving in the direction which I have long travelled in ; are they not them selves of opinion that it would be better for religion that Bishops were not made by Prime Ministers, as Prime Ministers make them.—(ilear, hear.) I say that it is derogatory to the character of a Christian church that its highest dignitaries should be nomi nated with as little—l will not say consideration— but precisely in the same manner as a clerk in a Go vernment office, or an exciseman, is nominated to his place.—(Loud cheers.) There is the question of tenure of land ; the mode in which land is transferred from hand to hand and from sire toson; that question i important to England and Scotland, as well as to Ireland. These gross evils, which have so long existed, arose in times when the population was thin and the people were powerless. They are worn out now, and so sure as Parliament has admitted foreign supplies of food, so certainly before long, whatever aristocratic influence may say to the contrary, will freedom be given to the land as freedom has been given to the produce of the soil. —(Applause.) But it is a curious thing that at this meeting the speaking has all turned upon a question which, but a few weeks ago, was scarcely thought of at all—the question of the war cry which has been raised. I have not said much about this war-cry, because everybody who knows me believes that I must, from the mere fact of my connexion with a religious society which as a society is known to have been always a peace society —that I must go along with the friends of peace. — (Hear, hear.) I hear on every side that there has been a panic ; but I do not believe it at all. There is no panic ; there has not been a panic. My Hon. Friend, the Member for the West Riding, has been down in Cornwall. He has not been here. He has read in the London papers, and he fancies we would believe in the London papers.—(Laughter.) I will just give you another instance of his credulity. — (Laughter.) When he was in Spain he wrote to me a letter, about the time that there was an apparent quarrel between Lord Palmerston and somebody in Paris, about the marriage of the Spanish Queen, and he begged and implored that we would not go to war about it, and that we would not get up a war mania here. The fact was, that being in Spain he forgot the character of the people he had left.—(Rene wed laughter,) He read the London papers, and fancied we were all writing leading articles for the London papers. The fact is the panic has been entirely among certain leaders of the military party in this country, and among the "leaders" in the newspapers.— (Hear.) There is another class that the panic has been among, that distinguished body who go by the name of the Yeomanry corps.—(Laughter.) However, I marvel greatly they should be alarmed, because it is, or was proposed to be expressly provided for them, that whenever there was an invasion they should he per mitted to go abroad.—(Loud laughter and cheers.) [PRICE SD. Now, I assure you I am not in the smallest degree afraid, and I believe that the whole of this cry and this panic has been a sham.—(Hear, hear.) I would, however, be permitted to state one ; thing, I believe in my conscience that there is not a man in England more innocent of bringing this war-cry upon this country, or snore unwilling it should go on, than the present Prime Minister of England.—(Hear, hear.) It would be madness in a Prime Mini: ter, in any man who has to maintain his reputation as a statesman, and who wishes to s ee th e coun t ry prosper , that he should get up a cry like this, or in any way advance it. Great taxation, a deficient revenue— these are things which an honest and a wise Mi nister would avoid, and I believe that Lord John Russell has no more sympathy in this extrava gant outcry, than any man on this platform or in this room.—(flear, hear.) But the Prime Minister of England is not a man exactly at his own disposal. For example, we are trying to keep him in one po sition, or press him in another, and those who live by military tactics are trying to persuade him to go in another direction. I think I can give you the secret of all this. In this country it is the custom for men, the larger the property they have, generally the less they lea ve t o t h e majority of their children.— (Laughter and cheers.) Now, an honest cotton spinner or calico printer down here, if he makes 20,0001. or 30,0001. he generally divides it tolerably equally among his c hild ren , w h en he leaves this' world. I can't tell how any tnan ' with natur a l af jections and common honesty, could do otherwise.— (Cheers.) But the more property a man gets, and especially if it is in green fields, he thinks it neces sary that the oldest should get it all ; and, I believe, Col. Thompson gave a right explanation of this when he said, "It makes one hand in the family so strong that he can force the public to keep all the rest of the family."—(Loud cheers.) Well, now, bear in mind this, that among aristocratic families there is a natural increase as there is in families of other sorts of people.—(Laughter,) There is one child or two children about the board at first, and by and by six, eight, ten, or twelve, as the case may be. All these children, for the most part, are brought up with the idea that it would be lowering to their dignity if they were seen offering anything for sale, or offering to purchase anything on your Exchange. They don't go to trade. They go to the public departments. They are so overdone with patriotism, that nothing will serve them but they must be continually giving their services to the country.—(Hear, hear, and laughter.) Well, the pasture is getting rather bare. The middle classes are gradually throwing up more and more of their number of active, clever, and intel ligent men, who become competitors for offices of every description in the public service with the aristocratic class. Well, the consequences are very evident. The fact is, :as political econo mists, or as our friend Colonel Thompson would say, if he was writing upon it, " The numbers are pressing upon the means of subsistence"—(Laughter and applause)—in fact, that they must have a wider scope for their engines, those energies being princi pally employed in doing nothing, and eating taxes.— (Renewed laughter and cheers.) But, then, bear in mind, that during these thirty years of peace there has been a pr ocess go i ng on i n this country which has caused the utmost possible despondency among a large portion of the aristocratic class. Take the last twenty-five years, and any preceding twenty-five years of our history, and you will find we have been going through a revolution, a glorious revolution, but a tranquil one, and the more glorious, infinitely, because it has been tranquil. We have seen changes in the law and institutions, we have seen changes in the policy of Government, and changes in the temper of our executive, such as, with many nations, have cost bl oo d y revolutions, and yet they have not succeeded in securing them. (Hear, hear.) Who knows what may come next ? "If we are to have other 30 years of peace, with a Free Trade Hall in every large town, I should like to know what is to come next," says a member of the titled and aristocratic class. I have no doubt some thing very serious for them, and they seem to be per fectly aware of it. There is a deadly feud between the spirit of war, and political, and social, and indus trial progre-s ; and, therefore, it would serve the pur pose of this anti-national class, if it were possible to get up the war-spirit in England. For let that pre • vail—let war again overspread the earth, and there will he no social, no industrial reforms wrung from the Government of the United Kingdom.— (Applause.) I know that if you look upon the page of history, the last thirty veers do not show quite so brilliant a picture as the thirty years preceding. So many men have not grown up to be great generals and admirals; we have not had so many victories by land and sea, and the churches and cathedrals have not been—shall I say ornamented—l will say desecrated by the ban ners anal trophies of war.—(Applause.) A dis tinguished French writer (Mons. Lamartine) has said that blood shines more in history, it is true ; but it taints: blood and liberty effectually exclude each other. I ;t`tolerylqi ifilVls allteank won, as you value all that is before you, and that which you may yet attain, make a firm, a resolute resistance to whatever comes from the highest, from whatever quarter, that shall engen der a hostile feeling towards foreign countries, and shall induce you to spend large sums in your military armaments and preparations.—(Great cheering.) What is this meeting called for ? Why, but that men—a score of men here, who have been returned to Parliament by free constituencies—should have an opportunity of meeting this large assembly, repre senting the intelligent classes of this country, and of discussing these great national questions with them. The popular power is spreading every day. Let it be enlightened, that this power may be a blessing to its possessors.—(Hear, hear.) I can fancy what will be the exclamations of the United Service, the Army and Navy Club gentlemen, when the papers arrive in London with an account of this meeting.—(Hear ) Oh! it is a glorious time that we are come to, when thousands of us come here and meet together free— for there is no greater freedom than that which we enjoy to-night ; free fully and openly to discuss, free to approve, and free to condemn the policy of those who occupy the highest places in this great empire. —(Loud cheers.) I have stood upon the sea beach sometimes, when there was not a breath of air to ripple the surface of the ocean, and I have seen the tide rising, as though there were some hidden secret, and irresistible impulse, by which wave after wave leaped upon the beach. Let us, then, as a great and magnanimous nation, as I honestly believe we are, — let us have within our souls that hidden, that irresis tible impulse,—that love for freedom, that love for justice, which will enable us now, and in all future time, to move onward and onward, making triumph after triumph, until this great nation may be what all nations, I trust, may one day be, a community of I happy people, to which all men will look up as an example throughout the world.—(lmmense cheers.) Mr. BROT II EirroN,M.P., rose amid general applause, and said—Mr. Chairman, Ladies, and Gentlemen,— In order to bespeak your indulgence , I promise that I will not detain you more than five minutes. I have the honour to propose a sentiment which I am sure will be cordially responded to by this company; and I will adopt the principle that I generally observe in the House of Commons, that when I have heard my sentiments expressed by others I generally remain silent.—(Hear, hear.) My sentiments upon the sub ject of this toast, if it may be called a toast, have been already expressed by gentlemen who havepre ceded me, and particularly by the Hon. Member for the West Riding of Yorks hire. Anything I that I can say cannot add any weig ht to the sentiment am about to read :—" Free trade and peace : the best guarantees of popular rights, the best promoters of national industry, and the most effectual means for the reduction of our national burdens." w e are at present at peace with all the world. The q uestion for our consideration is, how are we to re main- so ?—(Hear, and applause.) It is proposed b y one party as a means that we should increase our army and our navy. It is proposed by another—the i party on the side of peace—the: we should adopt and i encourage a friendly intercourse with all nations, and act upon the principle of justice and of a conciliatory policy. A nobleman who has been alluded to this evening, one of great influence in this country, and from whom I had expected better things—(Hear, hear)—" saluted " this country, I may say, through the medium of the Times newspaper, on Christmas morning, with these emphatic words, " Awake, arise, or be for ever fallen !" This was not to announce the birth of a Saviour, but the incarnation of a demon. —(hear, and applause.) It was not to proclaim glad tidings and peace on earth, and among men, but it was to sound the trumpet of war and desolation. Therefore, the question that I have to ask you this 1 evening i s this,--Are you in behalf of war, and po verty and misery, or are you in behalf of peace and plenty ? No doubt you are for the latter; and therefore let us consider whether free trade is not the best guarantee for peace. 1 would ask whether you wi sh of to see your people employed in the manufacture food and clothing and in the building of houses, you in and or whether adding to the comforts of the people; wish to see your artisans engaged making guns 1 customers. — s (aHndeabr,uhlleeatrs.,)in We e er to shoot your best maxim among warriors thatin o fi rd n e d r to that secure peac e we should always be ready there e s tk e for war. We consid er that for the last thirty years we have spent 500 millions in making preparations to secure Tear, bear.) We have paid a very high premium insurance, I think, in favour of peace. Again, it is said there is no man but what will admit it is de :able that we should remain at peace ; that war is a ery great evil ; but then will any man say that under present circumstances, and in the present state of public opinion, it is cafe to disband our army, and to dismantle our fortications. That, as has been put by Mr. Cobden, is not the question at this time. The question is, whether we are prepared to increase our army and navy. It is admitted on all hands that war is opposed to Christianity, and every man says, " Oh, we disapprove of war in the abstract." I could hardly help smiling at our friend Colonel Thomps on , when he s a id h e wou ld not go the full length ; th at he could not give up war entirely; and at a no th er gent l eman who would give no pledge that he would not vote against any addition. They talked about throwing dust in the eves of John Bull; but he thought that was a little like it. We find again we have to deal with those who have always been in favour of free trade in the abstract, and there are many persons who very much disapprove of drunken ness in the abstract, and I don't believe there is a thief in the New Bailey but is in favour of honesty in the abstract—(Laughter)---but in the present state of public opinion, and under present circumstances, I am obliged to violate the law in order to provide for my family.—(Laughter and applause.) And, Sir, I very much incline to believe that among our military gentlemen there are many who disapprove of war in the abstract, and who are in favour of peace ; but, then, under peculiar circumstances, it would not do to depend upon any of these principles. Believe me, ladies and .gentlemen, our best security is in acting according to what we believe to be right. We have heard a great deal about Christianity. We know that any man who is really a believer in those prin ciples has a reliance and a faith that they are the best means for attaining the end. We suppose that we cannot brook insult. But I remember when I was young I read an anecdote of Lord Chesterfield, which relates that when he was walking on a footpath there came a man who knocked him is the gutter, saying, " I never give way to puppies." Lord Chesterfield coo ll y repl i ed, " Oh! well, I do." And depend upon it if you wrestle with a sweep you are sure to be black. Now, nations are only composed of individuals, and what is right as regards individuals will be applicable as regards a nation.—(Hear, hear.) And I know that love by love is won; and if we do ki n d ness to others we shall be benefited ourselves; and if we only believed that the good we do to the community was really a benefit to us, and that the injury we do to others will ulti mately come upon ourselves, we should then believe that it was our best interest as a nation to endeavour to cultivate that general opinion that will have an effect upon Governments ; and if we only have the people really imbued with the spirit of peace, de pend upon it the Governments of the world must conform to that opinion, and public opinion will prove stronger than arms.—(Applause.) I will not detain you at greater length, knowing who is to fol low me. The CHATRMAN then put the toast to the meeting, and it was enthusiastically responded to. Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON, M.P., on rising to re spond to the toast, was warmly received. lie said— Sir, if it were necessary for the last speaker to crave the kind indulgence, for a few minutes, ;of this vast assemblage, already detained here to I believe an un precedented extent, and yet with attention unwearied, for I honestly believe that those who have departed have unwillingly departed—how much more neces sary is it for me, rising at a still later period, to solicit from you that which under any other circum stances I would not ask —your attention for a few seconds.—(Applause.) I have been moved tonight to an extent to which I believe I never was previously moved by the proceedings of any meeting I ever at tended.—(Hear, hear.) If I am not greatly mis taken, we shall from to-night date the commence ment of a new era in reference to toreign politics in this country.—(Cheers.) I never was so struck before as to-night with the marvellous consequences flowing from the agitation of the free-trade principle. If 'it should come to pass that the intelligence of this country should take upon itself to inquire into the origin and authors of wars; if it should assume to itself its undoubted prerogative, since it is to furnish both the treasure and the blood, to know the grounds of the quarrel, who are to sustain it in the lists—who are to be entered—whose hearths are to be made desolate, and whose pockets are to be emptied; I say if this should come to pass, then the other benefits flowing from trade will sink in comparative insignificance be fore the majesty of a people, wresting a pen from the hand of a foreign secretary, hitherto wielded to plunge the nations into war and deluge the earth in blood—and claim for themselves the right of settling, by reason and the law of kindness, the quarrel hi therto determined by the power of the sword. (Great applau=e.) A digher destiny and mission seems to be re served for hitn who has led us in t preceding struggle. God grant him life and !lealth, and wisdom and courage, and men to sup port him.—(Appl ause .) Needl hope for that ? tie will have this nation as one man, deduct mg those who live by public plunder, and seek to inscribe their name upon the page of history with the point of a sword dipped in the blood of their fellows. —(Applause.) And yet, Sir, every preceding speaker, although they have been of one mind upon this question, has contradicted himself. They have all been invaders to-night. I charge them w ith vadine. nit : nestle . :,-,- „.;.,.., . _v_._...,,_...... j , assigneu to me, guaranteed to me under the hand and seal of the chairman.—(Hear and cheers.) They have violated the treaty; they lave come without even a declaration of war.—(Applause.) They have entered my citadel; but I do not mean to follow one individual's advice ; and because they hare entered in at one end of the castle, march ingloriously out at the other. Now, Sir, we have heard of wretched prophets. Who knows that I may be among the number ? But I would venture to fortel that the Free-trade Hall of Manchester will be more than a match for Apsley House and the Horse Guards together. One old gentleman has taken his pen in hand to write a letter. There is another old gentleman, whose phy siognomy you may see in every shop window where periodicals are sold, that always holds his pen with a sage looking dog by his side, and, my word for it, Punch and Cobden will beat the Duke of Wellington and Lord Ellesmere to boot.—(Applause.) Sir, I heard something in London the other day, and that may account for this outcry of an invasion. I heard that there had been within a very short time 20,000 applications at the Horse Guards, which they had not been able to supply with commissions. See you any thing in that? Can you not put that and that toge ther?—(Laughter.) Is it not just possible that there may be 20,000 human beingawho require to eat, and require to be clothed, and seek for a little pocket money besides, for whom their parents and guardians . desire such situations as will enable them to strut f m e brilliant scarlet, in gilded epaulettes, and live, English from charge to them, upon the pockets . of . the . . E li people ?—(Hear, and appl t a h u i s s e i ) sible it may be so, but of . . t l ee t l h c m er k ta l i t n i , s j ar u g st u ge 4 g , not only f romsim th il e ar te c m h p a e ra r ct o e f r, t t h h i o s u m gh ee l t e i s n s gi n an n d urn th be re r e , t o h t a h t er l s have recently recently attended, that there is to be made an appeal to the people of this empire, and their uni versal voice shall contradict every one of those lead ing articles to which reference has been made to night. Is it now that we are to war with others ; now that we are to revive extinguished animosities ; now that we are to adopt again the irrational phrases and the dehumanising epithets of fifty years ago, when France herself is setting an example which we may do well to follow ? What were the toasts given at those sixty reform banquets which have lately taken place in France ? This has been given at one of them, at all events,—" Fraternity, liberty, and equa lity."—(Great applause.) Let us echo from these shores the shouts which have been raised—and, I am sorry to say, stifled, as far as Paris is concerned, for the banquet did not take place there ; let us send back the echo, " Fraternity, liberty, and equality." (Cheers.) Sir, this is a missionary town, proverbial for the munificence of its offerings at the shrine of Christian missions; though, unhappily,while we are putting mites into the sanctuary of the Lord, we are putting ingots into the altar of Moloch. But what, Sir, if some converts that have been made to Christianity by our various mission aries—and where have they not made converts in all those lands referred to by my excel lent friend who preceded me, and in every land po . p a w: lated by the human race ? I say, what if a ship 1 d of these converts were to come to these shores s when h, the Duke of 'Wellington had accomplished his and we—before any preparations—What, what, if they should should see our channel filled with war-!tea if me t r h s— ey in dications of war, at a ld nd se a e sli . and be told that, without a declaration of war, their wimt first th.es e landing things the meant, l s — l a n w d h s a t and though of an unfriendly with out a quarrel, 'without as ym ptom tcohathnenei we had sent our miss kind on the other s . which an n overruling 1 hig came, Providence, to tench in n o t put he con tinents from . their trust in id i e o o n f ar t i e h s e omnipotence of their Maker, without whose permission nota hair of their heads should perish—that we, prac tical Atheists as we should be, without one indication of a hostile intention on the part of our neighbours, or one upward look to that Being in whose arm is o mnipotence, were resorting to all these infernal agencies to ward off an evil not to be perceived even in the remotest distance !—(Applause.) But, though the prospect is tempting, I will suppress what I might otherwise have said.—(Cries of "Go on, go on.") Gentlemen, the toast that I have to propose couples peace and free trade with the cause of popular rights. Yes, popular rights—(Hear, hear, and great ap plause ;)—and, on the subject of popular rights, Ia word to the working classes. Brethren, before you fight, know what you are going to fight for. I charge the working classes from this platform, if there 0411 i ri
