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. lle was for some 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 up in bed, and ho 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.

The execution of Racket, who was found guilty at the last assizes of the murder of Lowe, near Ferbane, took plttce on Tuesday, at Tullamore. There was scarcely any excitement in the town. At halt-past eleven o'clock a company of the 35th, in the command of En sign Moore, was drawn up in front of the gaol. and s hor tly after a strong body of police was placed inside the railing. About ten minutes past twelve 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. He never spoke. The fatal bolt was drawn, and he was launched into eternity. Ile died without the least struggle; he made no confession, but signed a declaration forgiving his prosecutors, he. There 'were very few persons present, in consequence of the prflest having on the previous Sunday stated that it was the wish of the prisoner that none should witness the execution. In less than half an hour the body was cut dawn and buried within the pecincts of the gaol. There seemed very little, if any, commisseration for the unfortunate man. LIMERICK, AUGUST 15.—The body of Catherine Dillon, executed in front of the county gaol on Satur day last for conspiracy to murder her husband, after being taken down from the drop, was given to her friends, who had provided an excellent coffin for her interment. The mother, brothers, sisters, and children of the ill-fated woman were congregated before the prison, and were witnesses of the awful spectacle. Her remains were conveyed to her late residence at Cappa more, where she was waked that night, and the in lerinfant, which took place next day, was attended by hundreds.

THE CONVICT ARCHIBALD 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 accred 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 God 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 convicted at Hobart Town, which is the capital of Van Diemen's Land. But to place the matter beyond doubt, 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. — ARCH% BOLABL" 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 bend, there will be no paper issued from this office next week." 111ENOMENON IN ROSS'SIIIRE.—A curious phenome non occurred at the farm of Balvullicb, on the estate of Ord, occupied by Mr. Moffat, on the evening of Monday last. Immediately after one of the loudest peals of thunder ever heard there, a large and irregularly shaped mass of ice, reckcned to be nearly 20 feet in circumfer ence, and of a proportionate thickness, fell near the:farm house.

About 500 of the thick coalmen in the neighbourhood of Getherton arrd 33rierley-bill ceased to work to day. Instead of quietly submitting to a reduction of 6d. per day, as proposed by the masters, the men now require an advance of 61. on their previous wages. Although some thousands are out upon the strike, everything at present appears comparatively quiet and peaceLble.

MURDER IN 11ERIVIONDSEY. Yesterday afternoon, shortly after one o'clock, the neighbourhood of New Weston-street, Bermondsey, was thrown into considerable excitement in consequence of 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 he let it to a man named Man ning, a discharged railway servant, who was dismissed by the directors of the Great Western Railway Com pany, some time ago, for being concerned with Night ingale and others in committing a series of robberies on that line. He appeared to reside with his wire on amicable terms in Minerva - place, and the murdered man was frequently seen at their house, and especially in the company 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 a salary of 300/. a year. He was supposed to be in possession of nearly 4,0001. in foreign railway bonds and securities, which was well known to Manning and his wife, who were fre quently i❑ the habit of visiting him at his lodgings, No. 21, Greenwood-street, Mile-end-road. O❑ Thursday morning, the 9th instant, he lett the latter place about half-past seven, and at five the same afternoon ha 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 tor some hours, no notice was taken of it at the time. Not re turning on Saturday, however, band-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 ludgiags he found that his boxes had been opened and emptied of all their valuable contents. Ile 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 had 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 tho 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. Ile discovered that the de ceased had been brutally murdered, that ho 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 cn Monday last : ‘t 10/. REWARD.—Missing, Mr. Patrick O'Connor, an officer of the Customs, who left his residence, 21, Green wood-street, Mile End-road, on Thursday morning, the 9th inst., and was seen near Weston-street at four o'clock on the same afternoon. Description: Fifty years of cgt., 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. FURTHER PARTICULARS. Manning and his wife sold all their goods to a broker in Bermondsey-street, on Tuesday last, and exhibited a great desire to leave the neighbourhood. Mrs. Manning was also at the murdered man's lodgings on the day he left and the day after, when she unlocked his drawers, but no suspicion was attached to her, as she was in the habit of visiting them during his absence. The deceased was possessed of near 4,0001., chiefly consisting of foreign railway bonds and shares, besides about 300/. in cash, the whole of which has been stolen. In fact, nothing of the least value has been left. LATEST PARTICULARS. ONE O'CLOCK, SATURDAY MORNING.—TIIO police who have been sent out to make inquiries at the different railways and steamboat 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 largo town in the country. The police, who have been left in chargo 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. [PRICE --SD. INDEPENDENCE OF HUNGARY. THE GREAT WESTMINSTER MEETING. A. public meeting of the inhabitants of Westminster w•as held on Thursday evening at the Hanover-quare Rooms, for the purpose, as stated in the advertisement, "of affording in opportunity for the expression of public ?pinion on the present position of the Hungarian people in their righteous struggle for independence." Charles Lushington, Esq., M.P., was unanimously elected to take the chair. The elegant and commodious room was crowded in every part, and a considerable number of ladies were preeent in the neighbourhood of the platform. The arms of Hungary, and the phoenix rising from its ashes, were Stlspended in the room. There were also small banners, bearing the following in large characters:— " Born th e I nv i nc ibl e; " " liossuth and Independence;" " Batthyany and Freedom;" " Dembinski and Victory;" while t wo ot h ers were suspendA from the chandelier at either side. bearin g t h e names" Paskiewitch " and " Jellachich" inverted. The CHAIRMAN said—Gentlemen, though scarcely re covered from the exultation and delight that I experi enced at witnessing the unanimous approbation and en thusiastic applause which prevailed at the meeting of the National Reform Association at Drury-lane, on Monday evening, yet I am called upon to attend another a l a n a t e r o i n s g e l i r k e fe l y e I i t n o g p t h rc a .v n a i h t ( w c h h i e c e h r meeting at whi c h, if I am not mistaken, even bs .) A ist t ed D7u t r n y-lane, our purpose was of a specific nature, but some daring spirits ventured certainly not blameably —to shout forth occasionally the name of Hungary.— (Cheers.) And though t h e 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—,uitable 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 andnoble nation of Hungarians.—(Loud cheers.) ThaneLs be to Heaven, we can do that unretrictcdly, 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.) lam 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 delight( d 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 ever 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 lion. Gentleman then read an extract, to the effect that certain Russian regiments attacked two Hungarian regiments, who resisted until they were utterly broken RD; 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 hole 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 an ode, which was composed by Hardy—a man who nearly escaped being exe cuted because he advocated simply those plain and undeniable rights of the people which we now exercise day atter 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—lair 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 they have permeated to every corner of the civilized world.—(Loud cheers.) Though you are perfectly well 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.—(Cheery.) tie 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 England 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 I 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 eeening. It is not Austrian authority remember; it a a mixture of British and Hun garian authority.—(Cheers and laughter.) Gentle men, there is on© 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 I have observed in one or tiro 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.) lira, lam sure you will make allowances for the opinions I possess on the subject ; you may entertain any opinions you please, but I want you to allow me the same latitude.—(Cheers.) You may interfere in the affairs of Hungary by the utmost exercise of your sympathy ; you may urge the Ministry to remonstrate with Austria and lius o si w a upon the atrocious conduct of which they are now guilty; but I doubt whether we can consistentlyoes.”) that we will go to war.—(Hear, hear, and cries I. r Z ia to France Wh y' y tohue sent other taentteoAdlemwhbeatrsisofo,arliaerdia a Peace o e f on sh g e res b s u . expended eleven hundred millions in 1688 to 1815, R'© ; ilea r r' ta i X e a a t r il, l an o d u d ar o e 3 a 'o l" U 'a lL s orth p a la t from den o of war.—(Hear, hear.) It is perfectly iniwtheluxuy competencer 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 n 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 confess, Mr. Chairman, that I have a difficulty in recommending this resolution to the acceptance of the meeting. It is this difficulty only—that it sufficiently recommends itself—that it comes abundantly recommended by the simple pro positions contained within it—that it comes feelings,abund antly recommended by the spirit snci and convictions which have brought us ell in the very heart to night.

(Loud cheers.) We COMMISSION OF LUNACY. Yesterday a commission de lunatic° inquirendo was opened at the King's Arms Tavern, Horton, 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 Silvester, her uncle, bequeathed to her mother a fortune of 40,0001., 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 placed in St. Luke's Hospital, and subsequently removed to Hox ten House. After hearing evidence the unfortunate lady was in troduced to the jury. On taking her 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 solicitor or 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 WILTSIIIRE.—CONFESSION OF EIGHT MURDERS.—CHIPPENHAM, AUGUST. 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 murder of her youngest child, exactly ono 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 d( portment. 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 preserve d throughout it, and return ing thanks, and !;raying for 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 gono 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 bo 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. DEATH OF DANIEL ASHFORD, ESQ., CORONER FOR SOMERSET.—We regret exceedingly to have to record the melancholy death of this lamented gentleman, which event took place on Wednesday, the Bth inst., at his re sidence, Shepton Mallet, after a few hours' illness, of a most severe attack of cholera. Mr. Ashford has filled the high oflice of one of the coroners for Somersetshire for 21 years, with the greatest satisfaction to the county. Mr. D. 11.

Well, then, my duty is short and sim; to —it is to declare the joy, I feet at being allowed - thus publicly to justify the faith which is within me, • by proposing a resolution with which that faith most warmly coincides.—(Cheers ) The case of Hun gary 3ou arc sufficiently, I behave, in possession of—it is a case of no problematical or elsubtrul signification—it is not a case of any sudden outbreak of the mounting spirit of Merry against despotism, although, if it were so, it would enlist tie s) mpathy and the support of England; for o.itbreaks of that nature were made by or r canonized ancestors to acquire liberties which wo stow enjoy, and which we will not tamely stand by and ate filched from us.—(Loud cheers.) But the case of Hungary is one to be plcinly, calmly, and drily stated ; it is the case of a e in o g ns o ti v lll er ati a n, ra g r r i a g n e td of e 600 by five years, nowsuccessive openly treaties, nly an d spa v iol e r c nt d i ; ofns cn aced b Hungary,3- one t o nor by law has he the smallest or the most distant title. which w lm : . neither urps t b o y descent, himself the by constitution, title ' f iil 'g —(Applause.) The title, through descent, the house of Hapsburg Lorraine has forfeited ; she hits forfeited it by a deliberate refusal to subscribe to conditions by which al( no arty man can be the legitimate sovereign of Hungary. She has by every other act conceivable, in contravention of the Hungarian constitution, retch red 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 pre cisely as much reason end justice, and no more nor less, as our Queen would abolish by edict the &Ale law in Hanover, declare herself sovereign of Hanover, end send her troops over there to force the people to submit to the edict.— (Cheers.) Bat Austria has Endeavoured to force her annexation of the country by mear.s of un paralleled treachery and inconceivable cruelty—by cast ingb - Indians, makin gciays civilized l di o z: f . by ae( I war,r' sa are3sk states,i i l t a n a rgl‘d were, t whether'v o b e , , i nlc like 1 :: a(ti))l,yn'ti the scourging iminbne:r,been aaf hangingd peacerespectedwomen shootingbl war—by c' e alktri'c o —' pri sonersep:beetdostreets.—(Leud groans.) Why,'do yen know the real meaning of the proclamation of that monster Haynau— (Continued greanirg)—which he issued in the towns of Pesth and Buda, and by which he declares that whoso ever insults one of his soldiers shall be, then and tiler,— 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 lather of a family in vain bars his door; the distant approaching tread , f soldiers is heard, rapine, death, dishonour—dishonour worse than death—are in that round; the daughter, clinging to her father's knees, shrieks to him for prs tection. I eiil not pursue the subject, but the spirit of liberty, of manhood, of parental love, rises in the cid stag'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? Nut 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 believe it will be kept, for Ido trust, in God, that before six months have elapsed there will no be an enemy left on the plains of llungary.—(Cheers.) I trust before six months have elapsed Austria will either be suing for peace within her own city of Vienna, or terms ot triumphant peace—triumphant on the side of Hungary—will be imposed upon her by that glorious, well-defended, and I trust, invincible country.—(Loud cheers.) Well, the Hungarian warrior has gone forth without fear and without reproach—he has gone forth to conquer, and cot quered he hitherto hits; or if he falls Ile falls without reproach, he fails 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 tolleaven 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 huirsanity; we appeal to you on 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 bo fired in Europe without the consent of England.— (Hear.) Remember your Government of that period.— (Loud cheers.) Urge Lord Palmerston to adopt it, and support Lord Palmerston—(Great cheering)—not in the way suggested ty an excellent and amiable man, whose vs ry humane address I have read this day—the Archbishop of Paris—who has just told M. 1)e Tocque ville, 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 arminst 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 station to use " loft)" 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 aealumnious and prostitute press.—(Continued groaning and hissing, and repeated cries of " The limes.") Amidst the general disorder which prevailed, a per eon 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 ot those around him, who 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 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 oho intends to do his duty in this assembly will receive the same indulgence which you have ex t,nded to me.—(Cheers.) Allow me to say that the public spirit of England has not been dealt out fairly by the equivocal terms used by some of the members of a week and timid Government—(Hear, hear)—but it does so happen that the success of a cause is a mighty good recruiter in its favour. Within the last few weeks the wavcrers 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 priatehlse:enairgnpedrotnoosfat letters, in atanondss mine,pv t . er ihryow t othhodetaihrreepc dared the .a,c, rhgtahetl shroud of vague insinuations and anonymous f t o o r w organs a the rd challenge,o friendsth e of press :heir proofs.—(Cheers.)

But our cause has not been disowned from on high; God has been w ondrously vanced the right by a series of most astounding victories. —(Applause.) When we first met in the city of London, a fortnight ago, we hardly dared hope — we knew what were our duties, we did what we thought our duty, in joining our voices with the voices of others )n )n behalf of Hungary; but we hardly dared to o t e a sta,o f the condition of Hungary.

While his Noble Friend and himself were giving effect to the wishes of tt:o3o who had subscribed for the purpose of restoring back to their country those gallant ilungarians who were driven on their shores some time since, in the discharge of that duty they of course negotiated with different steam companies, for the purpose of procuring them a passage to C o nstantinople, anti then a gustraetee that they should be forwarded safely t o t h e frontiers of their own country.
