(Applause.) It was the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel under whose operations the first impressions were made during the last century upon the heathenism of India ; it is to her that our North American fellow-subjects owe almost the whole of the scanty provision accorded to them for the continuance of their religion; it was she that kept the spark alive in a time of winter and of frost, until a better season should arrive when others should light the flame of their zeal at the spark which she had so preserved, and when it should increase and become a groat and wide illuminated nation to overspread and bless the world. (Cheers.) But, above all, the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel is a so ciety having reference to the supply of emigrants with the ordinances of religion. And the resolution which has been placed in my hands says that the "growth and organisa tion of the colonial church, and the efforts which it is making for the support of its own ministers and institu tions, are an encouragement to this society to persevere in its own special work L of following the British emigrants and settlers with the ministrations and ordinances of reli gion." That is the special work of the society. Let us consider for a few minutes before I cease to trouble you further —let us consider what that especial work means, and what claims it constitutes upon us as members of the British nation and of the British Church. Now, this great work of emigration, what is it ? It is, at any rate, one of the most marked characteristics of the 19th century. It had even reached, a few years back, the enormous amount of 400,000 souls carried annually from these little islands to settle in all the known quarters of the globe—about 1,000 souls every day passing from among ourselves— from the bosoms of our families—from close tie and kindred with us to found or to join new communities. Now, is that a work of slight moment? Is that a work of slight meaning? Is it not the truth that within the last two centuries Europe has made, as it were, a great spring outwards ? Various countries attempted to appro• priate large portions of the fertile, but up to that time, un occupied spaces of the earth. We were not the first in the field; there were other countries that then had either greater power or greater opportunities; Spain and Portu gal, in particular, appropriated to themselves vast regions beyond the ocean. France, likewise, was at least our rival in that respect. We were in the race, but we were by no means the foremost in it. It has, however, continued; and how do these matters now stand? What has Portu gal now to do with the colonisation of the world? What has Spain to do at this time with the colonisation of the world 7 What has Germany or Italy to do with the col°. nisation of the world ? What has that great, powerful, civilised, and enlightened people, the French nation, our present neighbours, and I hope to continue our friends—. (applause)—what has that groat nation to do at this mo ment with the colonisation of the world ? Undoubtedly she occupies a foremost 'placo in the ranks of civilisation-- undoubtedly she has important duties to discharge in re ference to her own ipeople, and in reference to Europe ; but it is plain from experience that colonising is not the function which it has pleased Providence to commit either to that groat country or to any other among the leading and most powerful European nations, And yet has colo nisation stopped ? It 113.8 stopped in the States which were founded from those sources. They appear to carry within them no principle of vigour and elasticity. But when you look to those which hare sprung from the loins of England, how marked is the difference ! Not 250 years have elapsed since a few - British settlers landed in Virginia; now the inhabitants of that vast region are 30,000,000 of men. You know them in the relations of commerce. You see how proudly their ships ride upon the waters. You know their wealth, their enterprise; you know the progress they have made ; and you know that progress con tinues at an undiminished rate. You know, also, they are children sprung from the loins of England. Nor is it only so in the United States ; it is the same thing in your colo nies. Instinct with the principles of freedom, they are full of the same vital energy, the same tendency to rapid exten sion; and, looking at the lessons which experience has already givsn, the results already attained, it is not, my Lord Bisho;?, I believe, presumption, but it is simply availing our selves of the instruction that the actual state of the world affords, if we say it is plain that the function of colonising this earth upon which we live, of adopting its waste spaces, has been committed to the race to which we belong, and a large and commanding share in it belongs to the Crown, the State, and the people of England. (Cheers.) The right hon. gentleman concluded by moving the adop tion of the resolution.

GLADSTONE, M.P., AT LIVERPOOL AN. / 1 is no one of those who hear me who would for a moment I • conceive that there is in this circumstance any ground 1 for discourag emen t i n th e wor k o f thi s society ; but if there be such a person, it may be well to illustrate the position of the society at the present moment by a reference to a former chapter in its history which bears a close analogy to those circumstances. Up to the year 1831 it was the custom of Parliament to dispense a large sum of money annually, not less than 16,0001., to the society, for the purpose of being supplied to the support of the North American clergy. In the year that I have named the grant was withdrawn. It was sub sequently arranged by the present Lord Derby, when Colonial Minister—(applause) —and I must say it was ar ranged in the most considerate manner—that the incomes of the existing clergy should be continued to them for their lives ; but, as their lives fell, the grants should drop. Well, now, at this period, the society had not received the development it now has; the colonies had not received the development they now have. The change which has taken place in the political government of the colonies, intro ducing the principle of self-reliance into the management of their temporal affairs, has been one of infinite advan tage to this society, because it has likewise taught them, by the force of irresistible analogy, to introduce the same principle of self-reliance into the management of their spiritual concerns. But at that period those things wore in their infancy, and the prospect of the society in the opi nion of its wisest friends was a gloomy one when the Par liamentary grant was withdrawn. How stand the facts ? The withdrawal of the grant compelled the society to throw itself more freely and liberally upon the spontaneous libe rality of Christian men. (Hear.) At the period when the grant was withdrawn the grant itself was 16,0001., and the income of the society was 5,0001. or 6,0001., altogether making something like 21,0001. or 22,000/. At the period when I now speak the income has passed 60,0001., a-year ;applause) —amounting to 10 times the fi-...nd indepen dent i ncome w hi c h i t p0 ,..---1 at the time when it wan , 23,353,097 MOLD. that permanent support, in the shape of money to the colo nial community, with a view to the sustentation of their own ministers and the duo preparation of the ordinances of religion, would not only not bo a good, but it would be an evil, because it would separate between them and the true, proper, national, Christian discharge of their duties. The functions of this society is to cherish them in their infancy. Believe me every community has a state of in fancy and of helplessness. There are, no doubt, belonging to the Crown groat and powerful colonies—there is not one of them that has not arisen from the smallest begin ning. Every community that has over been founded since the days of our first parents has had first to go through a crisis of difficulty and danger. There is a period when the State finds it necessary to make provision for the civil wants of early settlers. There is also a period when assist. ance should be rendered them with respect to their spirit ual wants. The wise policy of the State has been for many years to shorten the period as much as possible—not merely out of a sense of justice to the British people (though justice to the British people requires it), but like wise because it is right that those who, in the political sphere, enjoy privileges of freemen should bear the burdens of freemen; and because, in point of fact, there can be no such thing, in the long run, as the privileges of freemen without the burdens of freemen. The very same thing ap plies to this society. If this society were to promise per manent aid to the support of the Church in the colonies, it would be to abandon her duty not less to you than the colonists. It would be asking you to bestow your alms upon au object that did not require them ; it would be ener vating and emasculating that tone of religion in the colo nies, preventing the growth of a duo sense of its inestim able value—if we treated the colonists in their Christian capacity as mere children, and not as grown men, that they permit themselves to imagine that they have so little sense of the value of the religious ordinances that they wore I wi t l i l i i i n n g k t w o e di h sc a h v a e rg r e2 t i hat :Is u p r o a c n t aitntthlien f they ( o li rm dfoorftfhaecnits ees —i---. with regard to every other temporal blessing. Now, that this is the wise principle upon which (Front the Liverpool Daily Post.) The ex-Chancellor of the Exchequer attended the annual meeting of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, held at the Collegiate Institution, Liver pool, on Monday evening. The Bishop of CHASTER, occupied the chair, and opened the proceedings. The Rev. H. H. WYATT proposed the first resolution, to the effect that the new fields for missionary exertion which had of late been opened afforded favourable opportunities for extending the kingdom of Christ among nations to whore His name was still unknown. The Very Rev. the Dean of CAPETOWN, in seconding the proposition, traced the operations of the mission in the Cape. Millions, he said, had been wasted, and the life blood of our youth had poured out agniust the Kaffir, and all had been useless ; lot us try to make him a better man, and to conquer to Christianity him whom we could not conquer by our arms. There was one little incident which afforded encouragement. They had constructed, during the last war in Amali's country, a fort for observation, at an expense of 40,0001., and called it Fort Waterloo. After the war was over he had see❑ the Kaffirs dance upon the foundations of the fort. But on St. Luke's day, two years since, the foundations of a school were laid, and to this the natives brought down the stones from Fort Waterloo, and of that which did not avail to subdue in war the founda tions came which would subdue the Kaffir, not alone to civilisation, but to truth as it is in Jesus. The proposition was carried by acclamation. Mr. ANDERS ON aeconded. the resolution, and in doing so wont over many of the points toushed on by the previous speaker. Ho urged upon all who wished well to the cause not to faint now that so wide a door had boon opened for exertion. Ho earnestly advocated Ow .......-...ity for com bined notion and unity of purpose in forwarding the great and good objects of the society; and, in conclusion, ex pressed his high satisfaction at being allowed to second the resolution, which ho most cordially did. The motion, , An being put from the chair, was unani mously adopted. Tho Ven. Arc :hdeason JONES moved, and Rector Cemr • BELL seconded, a vote of thanks to the Chairman. It was carried by acclamation. The Bishop of CHESTER briefly acknowledged the com pliment, and in turn moved the thanks of the meeting to the Right. Hon. W. E. Gladstone, and to his Worship the Mayor. This was also carried by acclamation, and after the Bishop had pronounced the benediction the meeting separated. On Monday rooming Mr. Gladstone advocated the claims of the Foreign Missionary Society at Mold, in Flintshire. The Lord Bishop of St. Asaph presided, and notwithstand ing the extreme inclemency of the forenoon, the Town -hall was crowded by a large and fashionable assemblage from all parts of the country. Among the distinguished persons present was Lord Lyttelton. )IS.UELI AT BUCKINGII. BUCKINGHAM, TUESDAY. The annual meeting of the Royal Agricultural Asso ciation of Bucks took place today in the town of Buck ingham. The show of stock in the morning was ex tremely good, and the show-yard was visited by a goodly number of farmers and gentry of the neighbour hood. The sheep, which were placed in tents under cover, excited much admiration, but the greatest curiosity was one which had been brought over from the Crimea, and which, decorated with 'a profusion of ribands, was made to parade the ground. Much hand somer in its proportions, it resembled somewhat our own south downs in its black head and feet, but was covered with a beautiful fleece as white as snow. It is the property of Mr. Lowndes, a gentleman of the neigh bourhood. Equivalent reductions have bee n ma d e i n t h e Premiums payable by those Persons who preferred that form of Bonus.

STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, SEPT. 30. We hays had a very dull and inactive market. There is a general opinion that cotton will be dearer, yet in the present state of the money market buyers are disinclined to operate, so that manufacturers, who have already had to pay very full rates for their raw material or for yarns' are placed in circumstances of great discouragement' The rather better inquiry for India reported last week led to stocks being somewhat lightened, so far as sO-inch shirtings were concerned ; but there has been little or no business to-d a y, an d th e mar k et is , on the whole, flatter than o n T ues d ay last. The yarn market is firm, but in other respects it is in much the same unsatisfactory state as the cloth. Spin ners,e co m2elled b y the hardening te n d ency o f th e co t ton market, a re asking more for yarns, while both manufac turersaik t, and shippers are unwilling to give last quotations. Messrs. John Slagg and Co. report : a very dell, inactiv e market to descriptions of goods are present state of the mone y o r f ep n o ea rt rly all Bice market, to contracts, but confine themselves to the d a reluctant, o a u s e t b h n u a i y r y nt e e h r t e t s n o re - ex iv ecution of pressing orders only.

There is no alteration to report in the bWinesa at our cl oth halls this morning. The demand for heavy goods was brisk, though fur ordinary cloths the s ale was dull, except in whites. At Huddersfield this morning there was only a sma ll attendance of buyers, who made but few Purchases in low unions. Business generally is reported unusually quiet. BRADFORD, SErT. 29. The incessant rain to-daylteoccasiOned a very flat market. There is an extremely limited attendance, trade is dull, and business in each branch exceedingly meagre. In the few . transactions that have taken place, however, in combining wools and yarns full prices have been ob tained. In manufactured goods there has scarcely been a piece sold. In the Halifax market the inquiry for some descrip tions of worsted goods is somewhat better and that and stocks in the hands of manufactu re rs are low ; they the prices do not improve„, in prop or ti on t o the rates o btained for wool- Twist yaps are rather dearer, with a fair dema n d ; but carded q ua lities are not much asked u for. More money i s required for fi ne b r i g ht -haired w ools, to which the spinners are compelled to accede The growers are reported a s holding out for still higher prices, and stocks in the batids of Halifax staplers are not very extensive. The Right Hon. W. E. GLADSTONE, M.P., then came forward, and was received with loud and protracted cheer ing. When it had in some degree subsided the right hon. gentleman said:—My Lord Bishop, I venture to assure this great assembly that if, on account of the connexion of my family with the great community of Liverpool.. ....- app•iirance hero is a materdfinterest to any of those who hear me it is not less so to myself. (Applause.) My Lord Bishop, you were pleased to speak of my share in the pious labours of the evening as if the assuming that share de noted something of the nature of condescension. I assure you, my Lord, I feel myself rather that it is not condes cension, but, if it be any simple sentiment of my own mind, it would rather be ambition—it might be presump tion—which should induce me to place myself before you 33 the advocate of the cause of the Society for the Propa gation of the Gospel. (Cheers.) The matters with which I am most accustomed to deal are, indeed, widely differ ent from these ; and, perhaps, descending for a moment from the seriousness of the subject, I might venture thus far to say that you have spoken to-night of the usual strain of debate in the assembly with which I am familiar in terms far more complimentary than those which are some times employed respecting it. (Laughter and cheers.) But, however that may be, and grave and weighty as are the subjects to which within those walls the representatives of a free people address themselves, they cannot be more grave or weighty—they cannot compare, in pointof gravity and weight, with the interests that are involved in the ob• jects of this society and of this meeting. (" Hear, hear," and cheers.) I rather, my Lord Bishop, should feel it necessary to seek an excuse for taking upon me any share in such a duty. You have listened with merited attention to those who in this country have devoted their time from year to year to the efficient prosecution of those useful labours—you have listened with oven more merit ed attention to the voice of one of that devoted band who, in the name of England and . her Church, are preaching the Gosp e l i n th e f ar countries of the world ; and these, my lord, are the men to whom attention, to whom honour is due. (Cheers.) Any tribute in my power to render—l won't say any information in my power to give —I am but an observer like yourselves —any tribute in my power to render is not worthy to be named for a moment in comparison with the sacrifices of those who tear themselves from honie and country, who encounter difficulty, hardship, disease, danger, and death for the cause of the Gospel in foreign lands. (Cheers.) My Lord Bishop, it is little indeed that I can offer in the way of services to this society ; but, summoned as I have been by the persons responsible for the conduct of its affairs in this town, I could not decline to appear here, in your presence, as the constituted head of the church of the diocese, to tender my testimony, such as it is, in its favour ; and in no place could that testimony be rendered—l won't say with mere efficacy, but certainly with greater earnestness and zeal, or with greater satis. faction and interest to myself—than it is now rendered, in the town where first I saw the light. (Loud cheers.) My Lord Bishop, we are met, I believe, at a critical period of the history of the society. For a long time its course has been one of unremitted assiduity, and of a prosperity almost commensurate with that assiduity. For my own part, I feel it due to its managers to say that when we hear of the greatness of the works that it has accomplished— when we see how deeply it has struck its roots in many of the great territories of the earth—when we notice, to take only a single instance, what a blessed memory it has left behind it, and what a great and blessed trophy it has erected in the United States of America; and when I then consider how little in comparison of those great works are the sum s which this society has raised from this rich and powerful country, I feel indeed our debt of gratitude to Providence, which from such small beginnings 'has wrought out such groat results, universally accumulated; and that we are likewise under a debt of gratitude to those who have been stewards of its affairs; and we are likewise subject to the strongest appeal addressed to us, to our interests, our minds, and our hearts, to rouse ourselves at length in or der to have a worthy part in the great office of such an institution. But it is crisis in the history of the society, because the society, whose means have been increasing, but whose obligations have gone on increasing even faster than its means, has recently suffered the sudden with drawal of one of the resources to which it was accustomed to trust. That resource consisted, as probably many of you are aware, o f w h a t i s t erme d a Queen's L e tt er, w hi ch after all amounted to no more than this, a permission only to the member s of the Church to offer their free-will offerings in all the chu rc h es o f the land on behalf of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. (Hear,) I believe that this is a resource that it would have been perfectly comp etent to the Church of England t o ma k e use of, with full pr o fit even, irrespective of the sanction of the Crown. (Applause.) But it so happens that it has been a particular form in which the Church has been accustomed to snake her appeal to her members; and the sudden breaking u p of any form whatever, even alth ough it is one of no peculiar virtue in itself, and one which might origi nally have been easily dispensed with, is usually attended with a momentary inconvenience; and the inconvenience is, I believe in the Present instance, somethin g lik e the OS Of MI average income of 10,0001. a-year. I hope there I o an upon Parliament, and amounting to three times the aggregate of that which it then collected for itself and that it received by the sanction of the nation. Under those circumstances we should be agreed that there is not:reason for despondency and no reason for despair in the circumstances in which we new stand. I will ven ture to go further—l will ♦enture to say, without giving auy opinion upon the withdrawal of this peculiar instru• went of support, the manner of which I scarcely regret— I will venture to express my strong opinion that the with drawal will prove ultimately, ay, and speedily, to have been beneficial to the society ; for again will happen that which has happened already—the energy of the society will receive a new stimulus. In consequence of this re moval of the artificial props, she will fall back more unre servedly upon her faith, her zeal, her prayers—her appeals to the faith, the love, the zeal, the prayers, the alms, the service of Christian people; and fur every pound that she amassed through the machinery of which she now loses the use, she will obtain many pounds without being indebted for them to anything, only excepting the love of the mem bers of the Church of England. I was glad to hear from those who have addressed to us to-night warnings and cau tions with respect to the expectations that we are to enter tain from the works of the missionaries of the society in foreign lands. It is the business of this institution, if I understand it rightly—l don't mean to say that it is not likewise the business and the practice of other institutions —but it is the business of this institution, if I understand it aright, to make her works resemble the nation to which she belongs—to take care that her proceedings are straight forward, not so much by the love of show as by a solid prudence—to see that she lays her foundation broad and deep as those who have to do with God, and not with men, as those who are to obey Hia commands and to trust Him for the issue—reckoning as to the time when the fruits are to become visible, scarcely belonging to us. It is the work of faith and patience to wait for those fruits, as it oftentimes happens that the larger they appear before rising to the surface the more precious and the more minting they are when they once have appeared. Solidity has, I venture to say, been up to the present time the eminent and peculiar cha racteristic of this society ; for this society, though it be a private institution, yet it has had to do with the greates communities of men ; and, as you have already noticed, there is a great community of men—a religious persuasion —beginning to count its numbers by millions; I mean the Episcopal Church in the United States of America. That Church, with the simplicity of its laws, with its apostolic doctrine, with its discipline, with its constitutional go vernment affecting with its rising tone their spiritual life, looks back upon this society as its parent. You are not it uilding—you are not labouring for to-day; your labours are cheerfully to expect their reward beyond the grave; but, looking at them even in their temporal operation, you are labouring for all time—you are seeking to find that which should be a blessing not only to those who now live, but to those of long successive generations. It is true that Christianity itself, in the first impulse that it received from the hand of its Divine Author, appeared to make rapid progress; but how soon was that progress stayed ? How many centuries elapsed before any considerable mass of Europe could be called Christendom? It is a true analogy that you draw from the vegetable world—the oak does not grow in the same time as the poplar ; and great and fun damental changes that teach the heart and the character of man, cannot be operated with the same rapidity as the sword of the warrior devastates a country, and seems to produce in the shortest time the most terrible, and as one would suppose, the most enduring effects. This is a great moral fact, and you must be content to see this society go forward according to the laws of moral facts; and I think we are justified in saying that for the time which has elapsed the fruits which have been borne warrant you in making kumblo submission to the Divine will-- warrant you in entertaining a sanguine anticipation for the future. (Hear, hear.) Now, my lord, I may be per mitted to say, that sound prudence has strengthened the operations of this society. I do not intend to touch on that interesting portion of its labours—perhaps the only portion of them which will be permanent, for we may see the colonial part of *its operations reach its climax in the natural course of events—l do not mean to touch on that interesting portion of its labours which are connected with the heathen ; but I wish to refer to that which is especially characteristic of this society, because I find myself directed to it by the terms of the resolution which has been placed in my hands. There may be an impression, after all, that those who quit our shores in order to find their habitations in foreign lands—l should not say foreign, but in distant 1 lands—and to continue the subjects of the British Crown : in their new character as colonists—there might be an im pression that these men should bear for themselves the burden of providing for themselves religious ordinances. Well now I think the true principle is that tempoiary support and aid should be lent to them from home (Hear, hear.) I don't hesitate to go even so far as t, say. _ . . ( been acting. You have boon told that in one important diocese of Tasmania, within a couple of years, the grant of the society will be practically abolished. You have been told that it will bo absolutely abolished in a still more im portant district, the diocese of Toronto. As I have said, it is not for me to give information which I scantily possess, but it may be worth mentioning to you that, not only has the principle of subscribing for the support of the pare. chial clergy made great way in the colonies, but we have seen, within the last two years, the principle of support for the episcopal heads of the Church likewise recognised as a burden the colonies ought to take upon themselves. And, unless I am much mistaken, there aro at this moment contemplated—if they are not gradually ad vancing towards maturity—two funds in Upper Canada, raised solely from colonial resources, with a view to the 1 foundation of two bishoprics in that colony. (Applause.) I might also venture to say what has been done by the 1 Bishop of Now Zealand. (Applause.) Unless I am greatly mistaken, that admirable man, as prudent and practical in his measures as he is fervent in his zeal and unbounded in his sacrifices to God—(applause) —from the very first mo ment when he went to take the charge of that missionary church, has been contemplating and preparing for the time when it would have to depend only upon its own resources; and, by the prudent acquisition of land, he has been form ing a fund, the objeot of which is, after a limited period, to relieve this society of all pecuniary charge to the church of New Zealand. So, I trust you will feel that the object for which you are now asked to contribute is a just, a prudent, and a reasonable object. Ido not say.that our case would be hard if we threw our alms away, for alms given in piety and faith, even though the object boons not to require them, are far better spent, I fear, than large portions of the expen diture of this great Christian country. (Applause.) Still, it is not for the society to proceed upon that principle. It is her duty to satisfy every one of the thorough reasonable- J oss, tho justice, the prudence, and the foresight with which she acts ; and you will agree with me she does what is just and fair to the people of England who support, and what is most for the interest of the settlers in the colonies, whose spiritual nurse she has been for so many generations, when she adopts the rule which is adopted iu the State because it is in regard to its own sphere—namely, that during the pe riod of the first difficulties and pressure the liberal offerings of the people of England should be given to prevent the want of religious ordinances ; but, after the difficulties of the first stage of colonial life are surmounted, she consents, not for our sakes, but for their own, that they should take upon themselves the burden of supporting their own colo nial ministry. (Applause.) Well, now, my Lord Bishop, standing in the town of Liverpool, and addressing a fraction indeed, a small fraction of its vast population, but yet an assemblage so large and of such a character that its influence must bo felt throughout the whole of that gigantic mass— standing in the town of Liverpool, I venture to beseech this assembly well to lay to heart both the dignity and the necessity of this work; and likewise well to consider the peculiai relation in which it stands, first to our functions as Christians, next to our place in the world as Englishmen ; lastly, I would even venture to say to your place, as to a commercial community almost unrivalled for its marvellous expansion and its groat prosperity. What is this society of which we speak, and what are its claims upon you ? When founded? More than a century and a half have elapsed since it commenced its unobtrusive la hours. It was founded in a time which, in reference to the best purposes of our nature, I am afraid we must call an evil time, for undoubtedly, although the Revolution of 1688 was, in the hands of God, the means of preserving t• us the inestimable blessings of our civil and religious free dom, yet we cannot but see, not in any just relation to that revolution or its causes, yet as a matter of fact dur ing the last century, and from its very commencement, these cause in a rapid decline in the religion and morality of the British people. As the consequence of that, a groat relaxation of the discipline of the Church, a material lowering of the standard of its piety, and as the last result again, or at least the necessary result of these lamentable circumstances, a great multiplication of the religious dif ferences of the country. In full time darkness had begun to gather in, and, while it was beginning to increase, this society was founded by some of those who wore the elect of their generation—the mon who endeavoured to atom the tide of ungodliness at home were likewise the men who endeavoured to make provision for the interests of their fellow-subjects and fellow-Christians abroad. During all those generations—during those dreary years of the last century—this society never ceased from its work. I will not say it was carried on with all the energy and zeal that now characterise its operations ; but this I will say, that wherever it was it was a source and a fountain of bless ing to mankind. (Loud cheers.) And if it did no more than this, it reminded the Church of England of the duty of missionary operations in a 4 ..,iee when they were forgotten, I say that alone. ..rrespective of all pre <~_ After inspecting the stock exhibited, the company re paired to the Town-hall, and partook of a cold collation, called,hy courtesy a dinner. The Duke of Buckingham presided, and was supported by the Right Hon. Mr. Disraeli, M.P., Colonel Knox, M.P., and General Hall, M.P. Th ere were also present various other gen tlemen of note and influence in the district. The repast having been disposed of, the noble chair man gave the usual loyal and patriotic toasts, which were received and drunk with the usual cordiality. The noble CHAIRMAN then proceeded to give " Pros perity to the Royal Bucks Agricultural Association ;" in doing which, he remarked, that 24 years had elapsed since its formation, and never yet had its members for gotten the purposes for which it was called into existence of uniting the agricultural interest in one common cause, and conferring advantages as well upon the labourer as upon the farmer and landlord. He would leave it to those who represented the county to say whether the association had not done its duty ; in his opinion, it had done the utmost in its power to effect the object for for which it was originated—the encouragement of good conduct in the labourer, and the promotion of the in. terests of agriculture generally. His late Majesty had through himself (the Duke of Buckingham), been gra cious enough to patronise their association, and had by a liberal contribution to its funds shown how greatly he pp a• r eciated its labo urs . P a t ron i sed, therefore, by Royalty, they had ever endeavoured, through storm and through calm, to carry into effect those great principles for the support of which the association was formed; and if their objects had been mistaken through ignorance, or misrepresented through wilfulness, they had at least the consolation of knowing that, as far as they were con cerned, they had pursued one steady path, deviating nei ther to the right band nor to the left, but ever having in view, as their great end and a i m, the promotion of the interests of agriculture. With that object in view, it was most gratifying to him to behold the steady advance which agriculture, as an art, or rather as a science, was making throughout the whole of the country. There was scarce a farmer whom ho had the honour of addressing but, who must be sensible of the astonishing progress which of late years had been made in the art of cultivat ing the ground, and with the extraordinary results which had followed in every part of her Majesty's do. minions. Nor were the benefits which arose therefrom restricted to the farmer alone, or even to those connected in any way, directly or indirectly, with the land. (Cheers.) Every class participated in them, and the im provement in the cultivation of the land might be felt at the loom or in the workshop of the crowded city. (Cheers.) Fur those improvements they were indebted greatly to the existence of such societies as the present, and he therefore hoped never to see the day when they would cease to exist in this country. Art, it was true, had done much for them ; mechanism had effected wonders, hut it was not those causes alone which could insure them success ; but the energy, the perseverance , and the enterprise of the farmers themselves, would en' able teem to secure that reward which, if they tSoso qualities, they had a right to expect and to possess. s.e &limited (Cheers.) Havieg paid much attention to qie. subject he had witnessed the progress of the agriculturists of th e INEWSPAPEN" country with the greatest interest, He had a e ' 14 ; 41 most extrao r di nary changes introduced, new ins: Tee. e s application of new manures, new modes of cults et-Ae e e; - brought into operat i on; in fine, be had seen the farm. ,= c. England, and especially of Scotland, putting forth alt 4 s the energy, a n d w i th a zeal, perseverance, and ability, which allowed no difficulties to stand in their way, or . prevent them from achieving the object which they had at heart. (Loud cheers.) A glance at the farms them selves was quite sufficient to enable the most casual ob. server to see the progress which had been made, and was still making, in agriculture. Now machines were daily pressing themselves on their notice, which enabled them to clear the fields of weeds, to cultivate the land, and produce much larger crcps than it had heretofore borne. In fact, the introduction of farm machinery had intro• duced a revolution, the ultimate result of which it was impossible at the present time to prognosticate. Already they saw steam superseding, to some extent, the labour of horses, and he hoped that before many years they would see the smoke of the steam.plough issuing from every farmstead in the country. As he had before said, stehlefisOh aCCuspation of the f armer was not so engrossingly many people would have them to suppose ; by benefiting himself he b ene fit e d hi s country at large, and as pure a patriotism reigned in his breast as in that of the manufacturer or the merchant. (Cheers,) But so cieties of this kind were most usefal in bringing together the landlord, the tenant farmer, and the labourer, and uniting them in bond —not by the links of interest, but affection. He rejoiced that these societies rewarded faithful, hone: t labourers net by the small prize, which, of itself, was, perhaps, of the least consequence, but by the public recognition ef the value of the servant to his employer. They this showed the world that there was no contest between them and the labourer, but that they were willing witnesses to their worth and integrity. God forbid that they should ever see the day when the labour ere of the country should be forgotten by the tillers of the soil. (Loud cheers.) It was not his province to en large upon these topics, but this he might say with re spect to thefarmers themselves, viz., that he was confident that, by evincing energy, perseverance, and industry, the English farmer would overcome all his difficulties. At the same time, to enable him to accomplish this, he mustfollow the example of others, taking advantage of every new a id which could be placed before him. (Hear, hear.) He (the noble duke) was proud of the position which he: occu pied as their chairman ; be felt deeply interested in the success of agriculture and the promotion of the landed interest. He hoped, if be lived a few years longer, to see this noble society flourishing and increasing, still following out the wise policy which had ever distin guished its action; doing everything in its power to im prove the cultivation of the land. (Cheers.) Mr. Darlene —The noble chairman has introduced to you vt bat he has most happily termed the principal toast of the evening. We are all members of the society, and are', therefore, all interested in its success. I, myself, have a personal recollection of its formation, having as sisted in that event 24 years since, but it is not for that reason that I venture to obtrude myself upon your atten tion. It is to me, as it must be to all, a source of great satisfaction, that, at a period of considerable difficulty in the fortunes of these societies, it has weathered the storm through which they passed, and having been con. ducted with so much wisdom and discretion, it has ar rived at a haven from which we can contemplate with satisfaction and gratulation the prospects of a bright future. It has been happily said that there is nothing so difficult as a commencement. No doubt there is great truth in that observation ; but allow me also to remark that a recommencement is perhaps more difficult than the commencement itself. After passing through many years of success, and some of difficulty, the time had arrived when we might have ceased to exist, but we re. commenced, and, adapting ourselves to the new circum stances which surround us, have succeeded. (Cheers.) We were called upon, I may say, to reform our consti• tution, and we have reformed upon the only principle upon which a successful and a secure reform can be ef. fected, namely, by an adherence to the original principles of our foundation. Whatever may be our future, we have adapted ourselves to the principles of the present day, while still keeping our original object in view, viz., the promotion of one of the permanent interests and institu tions of the land. (Hear.) The Royal Bucks Agricul tural Association has advanced with an advancing age, but we still recur to the principles of our original con• stitution, to encourage the labourer and advance the interests of agriculture ; and allow me to say that in no other way can we more effectually advance the interests of the country at large. We have very great reason to congratulate ourselves on the progress of agriculture ; for the last 24 years has accomplished almost the work of a century of time. That period has been distinguished by numerous inventions, and has given rise to institu. tions some of which deserve the admiration, the respect, and the sympathy of mankind in general. (Cheers.) The health of the noble chairman having been drunk, The CHAIRMAN, in returning thanks, said that he had been amply rewarded if, during the time he represented them, he had given satisfaction, and avowed that he should ever have the interest of agriculture at heart. Mr. LOWNDES then, in a complimentary speech, pro posed the h ea lth o f t h e " County Members,, coupling with the toast the name of Mr. Disraeli. Mr. DISRAELI, on rising, was received with loud cheers. After regretting the absence of the lion. Mr. Caven dish and Mr. Dupre, the other county members, the right hon, gentleman said I will not detain you by ex pressing upon the present occasion any hope that the farmers of England will not cease in that course of energy and enterprise which has already accomplished such considerable results, and upon the exercise of which alone depends their future prosperity. It is not for' me to flatter you with respect to the amount ef ability yea: may possess, nor is it for me to read you lectures 'on the best mode of cultivating the soil, because many here present know very well that when questions of that kind aripe, ou which public affairs depend, it is for me to consult you, and not to instruct you 'as to what must necessarily happen. But although I know, as many of you may know from experience, that the stat e o f agri culture is ono th a t re d ounds to te honour of this coun try, and, in my opinion, places the cultivators of the soil in England beyond those of any other country, t hope s i though , ntllatyo beh this a p I permanent a b n e e l n ie t v e truth,tobe w e a spresent, be and blin d to all the, maxims of prudence if we reposed upon the present position of affairs and did not feel conscious that it is individual exertion and aggregate enterprise to which we can alone look forward for the maintenance of English supremacy in this respect. (Cheers.) We can not conceal from ourselves that our soil is now subject to unrostricte,l competition. The time has passed when we can enter into any discussion as to the policy or impolicy of such a state of affairs, but we should be madmen if we shut our eyes to it, and did not resolve to meet it by the only means by which it can be successfully encountered and triumphantly vanquished, namely, by a continuance of the energy and enterprise which for years have distin guished the efforts of the farmers of this country. The British cultivator is favoured with a soil which, on the whole, is a fax soil ; with a climate which, on the whole, is'a favourable climate ; and, in addition, he has the blessing- to live in a land where there is a just adminis tration of the law, and the enjoyment of a free constitu tion. Whatever may be the difficulties he may have to encounter—whatever may be the burdens he may have to beer, with these advantages, and with the spirit which they animate and sustain, he has a right to hope and believe tl at he can maintain the proud position which he at present occupies. It is, however, only by being con scious not only of the advantages he possesses, but of the difficulties which he has to meet, that be will prove that be is equal to th e occas i on and to the age in which he lives. lam sure that the farmers of the county of Bucltiughain will not go backward. lam convinced that societies of this kind, administered in such a spirit of wide impartiality, free from any ef the measures of party and faction, as in this society, is admirably condo cive to such a result. I therefore believe that Bucking hamshire will maintain its character. I believe that the farmers of Buckinghamshire, by the exercise of their skill, by the ardour with which they pursue their efforts, by their resolution to have recourse to all legi timate means to stimulate and improve the cultivation of the soil, will remain, as they have long remained, foremost in their cla's ; and if that be the case, and if these be my hopes, you may judge of the pride which I feel, and of the spirit which, under all circumstances, animates me when I remember that I have the honour to represent you.
