MURDER IN BERMONDSEY, Weston-street, excitementest on s t ree t n l3 ? c r o w n o s e n ci d u a e e y n , e ew oafas neighbourhoo d thrown into considerable o - - Yesterday afternoon, shortly after one o'clock, the f New the fresh mutilated remains of a man being discovered in one of the houses in Minerva : place, near the new Leather Market. The house in question is at present unoccupied, but belongs to Mr. Coleman, a builder, residing at No. 1. About two months ago ho let it to a man named Man ning, a discharged railway aervsmit, who was dismissed by the directors of the Qreat Western Railway Com pany, some time ago, for being concerned with Night ingale and others in committing Ef , sPric; of robberies on that line. lie appeared to reside with his wife on amicable terms in Minerva - place, and the niudered man was frequently seen at their house, and eTecially in the poropany . of Mrs. Manning. The name of the deceased is Patrick O'Connor, a gauger in the Customs at the London Docks, where he has for some years received $ salary of 8001. a year. He was supposed to be in possession of nearly 4,000/, in foreign railway bonds and securities, which was well known to Manning and his wife, who were fre quently in the habit of visiting him at his lodgings, No. 21, Greenwood-street, Mile-end-road. On Thursday morning, the 9th instant, he loft the latter place about half-past seven, and at five the same afternoon he was met by . a friend near Manning's house, where he said he was going. He was not afterwards seen by any of his friends; but being in the habit of leaving home for some hours, no notice was taken of it at the time. Not re turning on Saturday, however, hand-bills were circulated offering a reward of 101. for his discovery. Nothing being heard of him for some days, Barnes, an active officer of the K division, was employed to look after him; and on that officer going to the deceased's lodgings he found that his boxes had been opened and emptied of all their valuable contents. He then ascertained that Mrs. Manning had been there alone on Sunday evening, the 9th instant, which excited his suspicions. Yesterday Barnes, and Burton, an active officer of the M division, proceeded to No. 3, Minerva-place, which had been lately occupied by Manning. Barnes had heard that Manning had used threats towards Mr. O'Connor, which led him to suspect that some unfair means bad been used against him, and he accordingly suggested to Burton the necessity of digging up the garden. They did so, but found nothing to excite their suspicion. Barnes then looked over the lower part of the house, and on searching the back kitchen he thought one of the flag stones had been removed. On turning up this flagstone the constables found that the earth was rather slack; and on removing it they came to the body of the murdered man. He was lying on his face, with his legs doubled up and tied with a rope to the haunches. Mr. Lockwood, a medical gentleman connected with one of the hospitals, was passing at the time, and in stantly rendered assistance. He discovered that the de ceased had been brutally murdered, that he had been shot, as two slugs were discovered near the temple. It was also discovered that he had false teeth, which cor responded with the following advertisement issued on Monday last:— " 101. REWARD.—Missing, Mr. Patrick O'Connor, an ,fficer of the Customs, who left his residence, 21, Green wood-street, Mile End-road, on Thursday morning, the 9th inst., and was seen neat Weston-street at four o'clock on the same afternoon. Description: Fifty years of age, five feet eleven inches high, fair complexion, light hair, stout made, and wears a false set of teeth." Late in the afternoon a relative of the murdered man identified the body. Mr. Stow, the beadle, having been informed of the dis covery, directed the body to be taken from its grave, and deposited in the kitchen, where it will remain until the coroner's inquest.

At halt-past eleven o'clock a company of the 35th, in the command of Ensign Moore, was drawn up in fiont of the gaol and shortly after a strong body of police was placed inside the railing. About ten minutes past twelv e the unfortunate man made his appearance, supported on either side by the Rev. Messrs. Culley and Flood. He walked up the ladder firmly, but soon after became quite weak and nervous. Ile never spoke. The fatal bolt was drawn, and he was launched into eternity. lie died without the least struggle . t ho made no confession, but signed a declaration forgiving his prosecutors, &c. There were very few persons present, in consequence of the priest having on the previous Sunday stated that it was the wish of the prisoner that none should witness the execution.

ONE O'CLOCK, SATURDAY MORNING.—TiIe police who have been sent out to make inquiries at the different railways and steam-boat piers have returned, but up to the present hour they have been unable to gain the slightest information respecting the road Manning and his wife have taken, and from the long time that has elapsed it is quite probable that they have travelled some distance. A number of the detective police have, there fore, been dispatched to several provincial and seaport towns, to endeavour to ascertain whether the murderers have taken up their quarters there, or whether any par ties answering their description have taken their passage by the foreign boats. The prevailing opinion is that they are on their way to America or some other distant place. A telegraphic communication has likewise been sent along the various lines of railway, and by this hour a full description of the suspected murderers is posted up in nearly every large town in the country. The police, who have been le ft in charge of the pre mises, have discovered the umbrella belonging to the deceased concealed up the chimney, and a cheque be longing to him was found in the dust heap, in the yard. From a minute inspection of the place there is not the least doubt but that the ill-fated gentleman, before he was shot, was drugged, and thereby rendered insensi ble. Vomiting found on the floor justifies such a sup position. 11/1 ESSRS.

THE L ADIE S. T T ° he powerful influence of the sun on the skin at this period of the year calls for increased attention in preserving its delicacy and teauty. The most pleasing and effectual specific for this desirable object is R OWL ANDS' K AL YDOR, to deservedly established in Royal and Public favour and estimation. Its application neutralizes the effects of atmosphere, and induces that healthy action of the microscopic vessels of the skin, by which its delicacy and beauty are so essentially promoted. Freckles, Tan, Spots, Pimples, and Discolorations fly before the application of the RALYDOR, and give place to a healthy smoothness and transpa rency of complexion. Ladies travelling or taking out-door exercise will find it to diffuse a grateful and refreshing feeling. In cues of Sunburn, or Stings of Insects, its virtues have long been acknow ledged. Price As.

Its beneficial effects are quickly diffused throughout the whole system, relieving crampli, spasms, flatulency, pain, and ;sense of oppressi , m atter meals, arid restoring the tone of the ,stomach.

W. Payne, deputy-coroner, at the White Swan, White-street, Cripplegate, on view of the body of Mr. Ebenezer Mitchell, aged 47, a master tailor, lately residing at No. 6, White -street, who committed suicide through fear of undergoing a painful operation. It appeared that he was suffering from an attack of fis tula, for which he obtained advice. He was attended by Mr. Lloyd, surgeon, who found him not in a state to undergo an operation, as he had much fever upon him. He was for wme days past much excited, and his manner was different from what it used to be. That (yesterday) morning deceased's wife, who had heard an unusual noise, went into the deceased's bedroom, when she observed him sitting u p i n b e d , ai d h e was black in the face. She then discovered that there was a rope round his neck, which was also attached to the bed-post, and which he had tightened by leaning forward. The rope was cut, when life was found extinct. Verdict— Temporary Insanity. EASTERN COUNTIES EXTENSION RAILWAY.—The Master in Chancery has appointed an official manager to wind-up this company's affairs under the Joint-Stock Act. The outstanding liabilities are found to amount to 3,5001.

There were about 100 provisional committee men. vv BROMPTON HOSPITAL FOR CoNSUMPTION.--Yes terday a very numerously attended general quarterly meeting of governors was held in the board-room of the above institution, the Hon.

THE CONVICT AKOMBALD BOLAM.—This noto rious convict has addressed the following letter to the Newcastle papers, relative to a statement which appears to have gone the round of the press, accusing him of be ing convicted of another offence in New South Wales:— " Sir,—Your sacred duty to me, my relations, and so ciety at large demands the insertion of the following observations in your newspaper. The diabolical para graph which appears in the Hull Advertiser of the 13th of October, 1848, purporting to be taken from the Gates head Observer, was no doubt fulminated with the view of doing serious harm. I declared at my trial most solemnly before Goa and my country that I was innocent of the death of Joseph Millie, and at this moment, far away from friends and foes,' I do declare that I am guiltless of the crime with which I was charged, and as I shall have to answer for it before God, the account which I gave at the trial, to the best of my recollection, was a true account of all that I knew relating to the death of Joseph Millie; and to the said paragraphical charge I also, with the most profound contempt, plead not guilty. I have never been out of New South Wales since my arrival in the year of our Lord 1840. Van Diemen's Land and Norfolk Island lie, the former about 700 miles to the south, and the latter 1,000 miles to the east of Botany Boy, consequently, I could not have been Diemen's Land. But to place the matter beyond doubt , convicted at Hobart Town , which is the capital of Van I enclose a certificate from the principal superintendent of the convicts of this colony, under whose observation I have been from the time I arrived until this hour.-- ARCHD.

TAKING THINGS COOLLY.—A paper " out west" makes the following announcement to its numerous subscribers :—" In order to enable us to get through with some job work on hand, there will be no paper issued from this office next week."

I t occ al up m ie e d di b a y tel M y r o onet On of the evening of Monday . li thunder ever heard there , a lar g e a nd irregularly shaped mass of ice, reckoned to be nearl y 20 feet in circumfer ence, and of a proportionate thickness, fell near the:farm house. It had a beautiful crystalline appearance, being nearly transparent, if we e x cept a small portion of it, which consisted of hailstones of uncommon size, fixed after together. It was principally composed of small squares —diamond shaped—of from one to three inches in size all firmly congealed together. The weight of this large piece of ice could not be ascertained; but it is a most fortunate circumstance that it did not fall on Mr. Moffat's house, or it would have crushed it, and undoubtedly have caused the death of some of the inmates. No appearance whatever of either hail or snow was discernible in the surrounding district.—Boss - shire Advertiser. There is somethirg in the last hour of the day, if it have been itself a happy one, which seems to concen trate all the pleasant things of the past. It is like a fine evening sky, calm and sweet, and full of rays, that are all the rosier, because they aro the last.—Eliza Cook's Journal. The Government contract for 100,000 gallons of rum for the navy was again taken yesterday by Messrs. Lemon, Hart, and Son, of 59, Fenchurch-street. THE STRIKE IN SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE.—BIR MINGHAM, THURSDAY.--TIIO strike of colliers in South Staffordshire Extends and promises to be all but universal. About 500 of the thick coalmen in the neighbourhood of Getherton and Brierley-hill ceased to work to day. Instead of quietly submitting to a reduction of 6d. per day, as propsed by the masters, the men now require an advance of 6d. on their previous wages. Although some thousands are out upon the strike, everything at present appears comparatively quiet and peaceable. AMBRICAN FLouu.—A vessel arrived from New York has brought an entire cargo of flour, consisting of 7,476 barrels of the article, the produce of the United States of America. COMMISSION OF LUNACY. Yesterday a commission de lunatico inquirendo was opened at the King's Arms Tavern, Hoxton, before Mr. Commissioner Winslow, and a special jury, relative to the state of mind of Elizabeth Fisher, a maiden lady, aged 49, formerly governess in the family of Lord Gran ville Somerset, which engagement she relinquished on her mother's acquisition of a fortune of 40,0001., but was now an inmate of Hoxton House Lunatic Asylum. The Commission was unopposed. The history of this lady's case is extraordinary. About nine years since a gentleman, named Silvoster, her uncle, bequeathed to her mother a fortune of 40,0002, upon whom the acquisition had the effect of producing a derangement of intellect, which communicated itself to the subject of this inquiry, and against whom consequently a commission issued in 1842, when she was found by a jury to be of unsound mind; but, she had so far recovered in 1844, as to induce the Lord Chancellor to supersede the commis sion, and she was then released from Dr. Philp's Asy lum, Kensington House, where she had been previously confined. Her conduct having in 1848 become violent, it was necessary again to place her under restraint, and, in consequence, 14th of July, 1848, she was pl ace d in St. Luke's Hospital, and subsequently removed to Hox ton House. After hearing evidence the unfortunate lady was in troduced to the jury. On taking har seat by the side of the Learned Commissioner she proceeded to recount, with the utmost volubility, her imaginary injuries, com plaining, that she was unable to employ solicit or o r counsel, and that she had been improperly confined in a madhouse. The jury found—" That Miss Fisher is now of un sound mind, incapable of managing herself or her affairs, and has been so since the 14th of July, 1848." THE POISONINGS IN WILTSHIRE.—CONFESSION OF EIGHT MURDERS.—CHIPPENHAM, A UGUST. 17.—The conviction of the woman Rebecca Smith, at the recent Wiltshire Summer Assizes, before Mr. Justice Cress well, for the murder of her infant child at Westbury, was one of the most painful cases that has occurred in this part for many years. She was tried for the murdt r of her youngest child, exactly one month old; but she has con fessed to the chaplin of the county gaol that she pre viously murdered seven others of her children in the same manner. Yet this woman was religious in her out ward deportment. She attended Divine worship at the meeting-house every Sabbath day, and regularly said her prayers—praying at night (by her own showing) that she might be preserved throughout it, and return ing thanks, and praying fur further mercies in the morning. The only motive the wretched criminal assigns for such deeds of horror is that she feared that her children might come to want. She bore the character among her neighbours, of being an inoffensive and industrious woman, and there is no doubt she has suffered great privations, her husband being given to drunkenness. Her father was a market gardener, and she had 1001. bequeathed at his death, but the whole of this sum was squandered by her hus band. Suspicions were entertained that she had also endeavoured to poison her surviving child when in in , fancy, but this she firmly denies. On the contrary, she ex presses the greatest affection for this child, her only tear (as she says) being that when she is gone her daughter will be neglected by her husband. The ex cellent chaplain of the gaol is unwearied in his endea vours to bring her to a sense of her awful situation, and his pious labours we trust will not be fruitless. Her execution is fixed for the 23d instant. Efforts are being made in the county to obtain a remission of her sentence, and petitions to that effect are in the course of signature for presentation to the Secretary of State.

A public meeting of the inhabitants of Westminster was held on Thursday evening at the Hanover-square Rooms, for the purpose, as stated in the advertisement, " of affording an opportunity for the expression of public opinion on the present position of the Hungarian people in their right eous s t rugg l e f or i ndependence. " Charles Lushington, Esq., M.P., was unanimously elected to take the chair. The elegant and oommodious room was crowded in every part, and a considerable number of ladies were piresent in the neighbourhood of the p latform. The arms of Hun gary , and the phoenix rising from its ashes, were suspended in the room. There were also small banners, bearing the ,x fol , loWing . in large char ac t ers: — " Bem the l Invincible; " ossuth and Indep en d ence ; " " Batthy any an d Freedom;, " Dembinski and Vict ory;" while two oth ers were suspe nded fro m the chandelier at either s id e , bearing thenames " Paskiewitch " and " Jellachich" inverted. The Cerarnarasi said—Gentlemen, though scarcely re covered from the exultation and delight that I experi enced at witnessing the unanimou s approbation and en .. thusiastic applau se which preva iled nciat at the mee ti ng o f the National R e f orm Ass Monday evenin g , ton at Drury-la ne , on yet I am lca allni n called upo t n to attend a no th er meeting at which, if taken, even a stronger feelin g th an t h at which subsistedos a i rDrjury lane is likely to prevail.—(Cheers.) At Drur y -l ane, y our purpose was of a sp ec ifi c nature, but some -daringilie spirits ventured certai n ly not blameablY shout forth occasionally the n ame of Hungary. to (Cheers.) And though the chairman deeply sympathised in the object of the Hungarian cause, yet he found it his duty to suppress the shouts and plaudits which that call elicited. On the present occa sion you will be under no such restrictions; it is only necessary that decorum—suitable and reasonable de corum—should be observed, and that you should do me the favour to follow the order of proce dure which has been laid down by the committee. Gentlemen, we are called upon this evening to manifest our sympathy with the struggle of the great and noble nation of Hungarians.—(Loud cheers.) Thanks be to Heaven, we can do that unrestrictedly, without fear of false law or the impotent threats and menaces of tyrants.—(Cheers.) Englishmen can speak forth now-a-days freely and nobly, without the' slightest dread of being misrepresented, or of being subject to punishment.—(Cheers.) And that alone, I think, is a good reason why we should speak out in favour of the Hungarians.—(Hear, hear.) I am not very well versed in the historical portion of this subject—that I will leave to those who have studied the question deeply, and who will follow me; but I say that no man can read the public prints —no man can look at the usual sources of intelligence—without being delighted at the narratives given of the noble struggle now going on in Hungary.— (Cheers.) The Constitution of the Hungarians is nearly similar to our own, and we should, therefore, sup port them in the assertion of their rights.—(Loud cheers.) They have made most noble and glorious exertions to repel their aggressors; and the exploits in which they have been engaged are unequalled in the annals of those ancient nations which we are ac customed to applaud, and perhaps no exhibition of modern prowess will over excel them.—(Cheers.) It was only the other day that I saw a paragraph in the newspapers which is indicative of the devotion of the Hungarians. It is so very short that I am sure you will not manifest any impatience if I quote it. (The Hon. Gentleman then read an extract, to the effect that certain Russian regiments attacked two Hungarian regiments, who resisted until they were utterly broken up; that 200 prisoners were all that remained at the close of the contest, and of these 130 were old grey headed men, and eight were mere boys.)—(Loud cheers.) This, then, is no vain appeal to your sympathies, for the tide nation has already, as one man, risen up for the purpose of stimulating and encouraging the Hun garians. I remember, when I was a boy, a song, or rather au ode, which was composed by Hardy—a man who nearly escaped being exe cuted because be advocated simply those plain and undeniable rights of the people which we now exercise day after day. I cannot repeat it at full length, but I remember one stirring stanza, which I think the Hungarians might adopt, and introduce into one of their patriotic and soul-stirring appeals to the people— " Plant, plant the tree—!air freedom's tree— 'Midst dangers, wounds, and slaughter; Each patriot's breast its soil shall be, And tyrant's blood its water."—(Applause.) My Noble Friend, Lord Dudley Stuart—(Loud and prolonged cheering)—would like to translate that into Polish—(Laughter)—but I shall be perfectly satisfied if he will render it into the Hungarian language. It would be needless for me to advert to the many years' exertions of Lord Dudley Stuart on behalf of the distressed Poles —his benevolence, his kindness, his generosity to them are notorious and flagrant, for t hey have permeated to every corner of the civilized world.—(Loud cheers.) Though you aro perfectly welt acquainted with the patriotic qualities of my Noble Friend, Lord Nugent—(Loud cheers)—perhaps you are not aware that when a small body of Hungarian hussars arrived at Dover, in a state of poverty and desolation, attention to their misery was first called by Lord Nu• gent.—(Cheers.) He it was that stimulated the sluggish liberality of the House of Commons, and induced several Members, to join in a subscription, which enabled the Hungarian hussars to leave Eng land comfortably equipped, in order to return to their own country. A GENTLEMAN (on the platform)—l trust safely? The CHAIRMAN—I trust safely ; but we have not heard that yet. I feel that my office, gentlemen, to-night is only introductory.—(Hear, hear. When I see how I am supported—when I know that two Noble Friends are behind me, and a host of gentlemen besides, of every grade and of every rank, when I see before me the encouraging spectacle of hundreds of persons exulting in the object of this assembly, I say, then, that you want no prologue from me, but only an assurance of my devotedness to the cause. In the hands of those gentlemen to whom I have alluded will I leave the more detailed exposition of the question. I do not wish to be despotic, but I hope you will respect my authority this evening. It is not Austrian authority remember; it a a mixtui e of British and Hun garian authority.—(Cheers and laughter.) Gentle men, there is one point which it behoves me to touch upon, and one upon which it is very possible we may not be quite unanimous. It is impossible, accord ing to my judgment, according to my conviction, and according to my real and genuine feelings, to carry our sympathy for Hungary too far.—(Hear hear.) But 1 have observed in one or two meetings of this description that the people have been carried away by enthusiasm —nay, I will almost say by delirium—to express themselves in favour of going to war.—(Loud and reiterated cheering.) Does that mean that you want to go to war ?—(Cries of " Yes," laugh ter, and cheers.) Well, I am sure you will make allowances for the opinions I possess on the subject you may entertain any opinions you pleas_e,etsntolYou want you to allow me the same latitude.—( Ch eers.) may interfere in the affairs of Hungary thuerguetmtohset exercise of your sympathy ; you Ministry to remonstrate with upon the atrocious conductotfh which Austria may the -a y nd are ßu n s o si w a guilty; but I doubt whether we can consistently say that we will go to war.----(Hear, hear, and cr ies of "Yes.") Why, you sent eight or ten Members of Fran; e the other day to attend what is called a Peace Congress.—(Hear, hear.) You aro always complaining of the burden of taxation, and do you know that Irons 1688 to 1815, we expended eleven hundred millions in the luxury of war.—(Hear, hear.) It is perfectly in the competence of this meeting to come to what reso lution it pleases, but I don't think that I can, whatever may be that resolution, be justly accused of any want of liberality in my present address.—(Loud cheers.) I claim for myself the exercise of that latitude of opinion which is granted to every individual here, and I will only say, prophetically, that, it you succeed in urging the Ministry or the Government to go to war, England will rue it for cen turies to come.—(Cries of " No, no," and cheers.) Lord NUGENT then came forward, and was re ceived with great applause. He said—l have to propose the following resolution :—" That this meet• ing a etches with intense interest the progress of the present struggle of the Hungarian people for the right of self-government, which they have long and wisely exercised, a right to which they are entitled by the constitution of their country, and which they have proved themselves eminently qualified to enjoy by the possession of moral, social, and political virtues ; unexcelled by any other country in continental Europe. ' The Noble Lord said—l contess, Mr. Chairman, that I have a difficulty in recommending this . this difficulty to the acceptance of the meeting. only—that it sufficiently recommendliesitsthere comes abundantly recommended . by sim p lethat it pro positions contained within thelt and feelings, th sp a i t rit it comes abund antly recommended y c b have brought us all here to and convictions articulation and impulse of which night. And bow can i t be otherwise, in the very heart of an empire, in ev ery and kindled, and throbbed to an in this spirit has run, b those who felt most warmly in the cause e te n n u s ld ity ne w v h er ic bave hoped to see? The English people I k it has been fully shown, sympathise entirely with thin tru ggle of the Hungarians in a cause of which I the s will only say this—that from my soul I believe it to be the g randest and holiest cause that we find has been struggled for throughout the whole range of modern history. My Noble Friend (Lord Dudley Stuart) and I have had opportunities of witnessing the extent of this enthusi asm—we observed it at the first great meeting in the city of London—we saw it at another meeting where the spirit that prevailed seemed to burst forth far beyond the walls which were intended to confine it—(Cheers) — we saw it, I say, in one of the largest edifices of this empire —at Drury-lane: Theatre the night before last.— (Cheers.) The meeting to be sure was convened for another, but yet for a kindred, purpose—we saw it there —we saw thousands there assembled from the area up to the thronged galleries we saw every human soul within it raise a simultaneous and enthusiastic cry on the very mention of the name of Hungary. (Loud cheers.) We have seen that spirit also in the great borough of Mar fthone—we h ave heard of it on the outskirts o . fila y ) where 1 , 3 , a A n n i e d r s f r h o a ro v ‘' ilbte'coau trvavteeld,wall the cr y i \ S —(ApplaSuteitell.)theil‘leceoemines,.; have r been held at Manchester, irmingliarn, Derby, plat: a, at each of which deepest and warmest sympathy has been shown for th rh grea l t i • and glo -th(aLhotuhdat be glo rious n o s t h e e r a li n i s s e e . c W I:-.hd e el s n' t r ir birut i lg n ige. s : t ' ee, a a "l c i? a timeanny.caltheitr in ~a h h ib c h h the , fLel ould spirit of liberty has never been slow or sluggish, declare itsel ?—(Applause.) If I doubt( d a e gg ,u l 'r on this subject I should look to my Hon. Friend in feelings chair, who, faithful to his duties towards liberty as a Member of Parliament, and as a citizen beyond the walls of Parliament, is himself a guarantee and voucher of the spirit which beats in the breasts of those whom he repre sents.—(Cheers.) Well, then, my duty is short and sires le —it is to declare the joy I feel at being allowed thus publicly to justify the faith which is within ref, by proposing a resolution with which tout faith most warmly coincides.—(Cheers.) The case of Hun gary you are sufficiently, I believe, in possession of—it, is a case of no problematical or doubtful signification —it is not a case of any sudden outbreak of the mounting spirit of liberty against despotism, although, if it were fo, it Would enlist the sympathy and the support of England; for outbreaks of that nature were made by our canonized ancestors to acquire liberties which we now enjoy, and which we will not tamely stand by and see filched from us.—(Loud cheers.) But the case of Hungary is one to be plainly, calmly, and drily stated ; it is the case of a constitution, granted by five successive treaties, spread ing over a range of 600 years, now openly and violently menaced by one who usurps to himself the title of King of Hungary, to which neither by descent, by constitution, nor by law has he the smallest or the most distant title. —(Applause.) The title, through descent, the house of Hapsburg- Lorraine has forfeited ; she has forfeited it by a deliberate refusal to subscribe to conditions by which alone any man can be the legitimate sovereign of Hungary. She has by every other act conceivable, in contravention of the Hungarian constitution, rendered herself morally as well as legally disqualified to possess the title. She began by filling Hungary, contrary to the constitution, with functionaries not native-born.-- (Hear.) She claims the crown of Hungary with /Zee: cisely as much reason and justice, and no more nor less, as our Queen would abolish by edict the Salk; law in Hanover, declare herself sovereign of Hanover, and send her troops over there to force the people to submit to the edict.—(Cheers.) But Austria has endeavoured to force her annexation of the country by means of un paralleled treachery and inconceivable cruelty—by cast ing aside every law which has been respected hitherto by civilized states, whether in time of peace or war—by making war, as it were, like the inroads of the backwood Indians, by sacking towns, by hanging and shooting pri soners of war, and by scourging women in the open streets.—(Loud groans.) Why, do you know the real meaning of the proclamation of that monster Haynau— (Continued groaning)—which he issued in the towns t f Pesth and Buda, and by which he declares that vvhosce ever insults one of his soldiers shall be, then and there— and upon the spot—instantly put to death?— (Groans.) Do you know the meaning of it? I will not generalize; I will endeavour, how ever faintly, to give a particular sketch of what a rabble of Austrian soldiers is, when enjoying free quarters in a captive city. The father of a family in 1 vain bars his door; the distant approaching tread f I soldiers is heard, rapine, death, dishonour—dishonour worse than death—are in that sound; the daughter, clinging to her father's knees, shrieks to him for pre - tection. I will not pursue the subject, but the spirit of liberty, of manhood, of parental love, rises in the chi wan's breast and nerves his arm; he strikes the ruffian to the ground, and in doing this he has insulted a soldier at free quarters, and the father and the daughter are shot on the spot because one of Haynau's soldiers is insulted.—(Loud shouts of execration.) And how has this atrocious conduct been met by the Hungarians? Not one instance of cruelty or of retalia tion, not one drop of blood spilt, but in fair fight, can be attributed to them, even by the malignity of their enemies.—(Applause.) Nay, when they captured a town the other day, they permitted the garrison of that town, having first laid down arms, to march home, on giving their simple word of honour that they would not bear arms against Hungary for six months. I hope rather than trust that that word of honour will be kept. No I I believe it will be kept, for Ido trust, in Go?, , hat before six months have elapsed thsre will no be an enemy left on the plains of Hungary.— (Cheers.) I trust before six months have elapsed Austria will either suingbe for peace within her own ci t y o f V ienna , or terms o triumphant peace—triumphant on the side of Hungary—will be imposed upon her by that glorious, well-defended, and I trust, invincible country.—(Luud cheers.) Well, the Hungarian warrior has gone forth without fear and without reproach—he has gone forth to conquer, and cui•quered he hitherto has; or if he falls he falls without reproach, ho falls with glory, because he can neither survive his country's liberties nor his own. " Shall the victor exult or in death be laid low, With his back to the field and his face to the foe, Yet leaving in battle no blot on his name, Will look proudly tolleaveu from the death-bed of fame.' Such are the grounds of the cause upon which we appeal to you to-night. We appeal to you on the clearest grounds of national and international right; we appeal to you on the ground of humanity; we appeal to you on 1 the ground of the comparative character of the two na tions; we appeal to you in the name of liberty, whose cause has never been urged more gloriously since the period of ancient and heroic history, than it has been by the noble Hungarians.—(Cheers.) You must remem ber, as Englishmen, that there was a time when a great British Minister, Lord Chatham, boasted, and with him it was a true boast, that not a cannon shot should be fired in Europe without the consent of England.— (Hear.) Remember your Government of that peiiod.— (Loud cheers.) Urge Lord Palmerston to adopt it, and support Lord Palmerston—(Great cheering) --not in the way suggested by an excellent and amiable man, whose very humane address I have read this day—the Archbishop of Paris —who has just told M. De Tocque vine, on behalf of Venice, " that, in the language of poli ticians, they have two courses to pursue—either to allow Austria to abuse her victory, or to declare war against her." He adds—" I believe there is a middle course to pursue—that is to use lofty words."—(Laughter.) Now, I don't think it becomes a great nation to use " lofty" words unless she be prepared for lofty deeds.—(Great applause.) Till very lately this question has not been laid before the minds of the masses of the English nation.—(Hear.) The spirit of the Eng lish nation upon this subject has been abused and evilly dealt with—(Loud groaning, and cries of " The Times") —it has been abused and evilly dealt with by a calumnious and prostitute press.—(Continued groaning and hissing, and repeated cries of " The limes.") Amidst the general disorder which prevailed, a per son elevated himself upon the shoulders of two others near the centre of the room, and having first displayed a copy of that newspaper, tore it into shreds, to the evident gratification of those around him, Ito gave vent to their feelings by a violent shout of execration. A cry was then raised to " Turn out the Times reporter. The CHAIRMAN having, after some difficulty, at length obtained a hearing, said—l beg to be understood as not having the slightest sympathy with the opinions of the Times; but, if I am not mistaken, I heard just now a proposition made to remove the reporter of the Times.— (Partial cheering, and cries of " Oh.") Now I say I won't do anything of the kind.—(Cheers.) Whatever may be your opinion of a public journal you have no I right to insult an individual.—(Loud cheers.) That in dividual has a right to and shall have my protection. Lord NUGENT continued and said—l trust that every individual who intends to do his duty in this assembly , will receive the same indulgence which you have ex tended to me. --(Cheers.) Allow me to say that the public spirit of England has not been dealt cut fairly by tho equivocal terms used by some of the men-fibers of a weak and timid Government—(Hear, hear)—but it does so happen that the success of a cause is it mighty good recruiter in its favour. Within the last few weeks the waverers have been confirmed—a change has come over the spirit of their dream; the slanderers have been silenced; they have retired within the shroud, the appro priate shroud of vague insinuations and anonymous letters, in answer to the challenge of two gallant friends of mine, who put their names to the challenge, and who dared the prostitute organs of the press to specify their charges, and to bring forward their proofs.—(Cheers.) Well, a change has come over the spirit of their dream. A great pp, t has placed in the mouth of Brutus these lines:— " It was the noblest cause that ever man drew sword in, And yet the gods disowned it." But our cause has not been disowned from on high; God has been wondrously gracious; he has defended and ad vanced the right by a series of most astounding victories. —(Applause.) When we first met in _tiei ctie_ ; of London, a fortnight ago, we hardly wh daatr we thought 1 our duty, in joining our voices with the voices of others hardly dared to talk of the condition of Hungary. e did 1 on behalf of Hungary; but we But now what was klie gave of that country?

Glory and thanks to The Sun—(Great cheering)—glory and thanks to the Daily News (Continued cheering) glory and thanks to the Morning Advertiser—(Cheers) —glory and thanks to the Observer, and also to the Examiner.— The Noble Lord then went on to say that he could not forget the glorious exhibition of spirit shown by several commercial bodies in this country. While his Noble Friend and hims e lf were g iving effect to the wishes of those who had subscribed for the purpose of restoring back to their country those gallant Hungarians who were driven on their shores some time since, in the discharge of that duty t h e y of course negoti a t e d w i t h diff erent steam companies, for the purp ose o f procuring them a passage Constantinople, ie6 ; and then a g ua r a ntee r o an that they should be forwarded safely to the frontiers of their own country. In their several communi cations they were met by the moat liberal and self-denying spirit, and their offer accepted by the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Company, who had
