HARVEST PROSPECTS. THE CROPS IN THE WEST. —ln the western counties the cereal crops are generally very promising. The late rains have retarded the hay harvest, and in some places there will be a deficient crop, but. fine weather having now set in, it is hoped that the hay crop, on the whole, will be an average one. The potatoes are most luxu riant. In Devonshire the crop never promised to be more abundant, and as yet there are no signs of disease. Fruit and vegetables in the latter county are very plen tiful and cheap, and agricultural produce has generally declined in price. Wheat sold in many parts of Devon shire during the last week at 9s. 6d. and 10s. per bushel. A few weeks ago the quotations were from 10s. 6d. to lis. per bushel. If the weather is fine for harvesting, the price of grain will be much lower, it is thought, than it is at present.—Cheltenham Examiner. LINCOLNSHIRE.—In a circle of many miles around Boston the appearance of every description of produce affords the most gratifying promise of an aklndant har vest, According to the farmers' own admission, the wheat crop has not, for many y ears ' p as t, b een i n a more promising cond ition.—Li nco l ns hi re Times. THE LOWLANDS.—The advent of warm weather is most welcome to the hay crop, which was suffering greatly from the continuous rain. Crops of all kinds I promise highly.—Greenock Advertiser. The aspect of the country is now extremely luxuriant, moisture and abundance of electricity in the atmosphere having caused a plentiful growth of vegetation ; wheats are, however, already damaged from the prevalence of rain and absence of sun and heat up to this advanced period of the year, and unless a speedy change occur the bad effects will not be confined to this cereal. Turnips have suffered much from want of sun. Very little hay has yet been cut, though appearances are more favour able for mowiag..Duntsfrus ooutior. M. KOSSUTITS SECOND GREAT SPEECH AT GLASGOW. On Wednesday evening week a soirée was held in the City Hall, in honour of M. Kossuth. Professor Nichol occupied the chair and was supported right and left by M. Kossuth and lady, the committee of arrangements, and other friends of the Polish and Hungarian cause. The hall, which was crowded to suffocation, was taste fully laid out for the occasion, and had a very animated appearance, there being a great many ladies present. Amongst others, we observed the following clergymen and laymen :—Rev. Dr. Robertson, Rev. Dr. Jeffray, of De►inay, Rev. George Jeffray, Glasgow ; Rev. J. B. Dickson, Paisley ; Bailie Macgregor, Councillors Gem mil, Moir, M'Adam, Cooper ; Messrs. Thomas Brown, James Hocy, Thomas Bishop, John M'Adam, William Melvin, John Cairns, Thomas Smith, Robert Maggot, &c. On M. Kossuth appearing upon the platform, he was greeted with the most enthusiastic cheering and waving of hats and hankerchiefs, which demonstrations were continued for some time. After a blessing had been asked by Dr. Jeffra,y, of Denny, the company were served with strawberries and cream. The CHAIRMAN then said—Assuredly, ladies and gen tlemen, I shall not abuse the confidence with which you now honour me by interposing more than the fewest unpretending words between this great assembly and that exceeding pleasure which awaits us all. And I know you will agree with me that it would only' be a breach of taste were I to indulge in laboured eulogy of a man with whose name and actions all civilisation is familiar, and who will be thought of with affection so long as there remain on this earth an intelligent heart that can throb at the con temptation of the heroic. It is sometimes said, gentle men, that great crises produce great men—that oppor tunity for action brings or creates an agent. Alas ! I would it were so ; if the fitting reaper always came with the harvest, there would be a less grievous waste of that abundance which the conditions even of terrestrial exist ence places so bountifully within reach of mankind. The maxim, I fear, is rather true in its reverse—great crises being oftenest destroyed, because, through want of ef fective guides, they fall to be managed by very little men. It is, indeed, no simple task, no work even for . the most respectable red-tapery, to take hold of an epoch and control it. To mark the reasoning and sympathies of a people, and so to rouse and concentrate their best impulses that they shall obey as if they were but one man, and through such obedience achieve deeds of a kind that brighten large spaces of history—to accomplish this is given only to those hearts and intellects whose ap pliances, on the theatre of human events, are few and far between,—men, however, who when they do appear, never fail to fulfil mighty purposes—who, whatever their merits, success or want of success, whether in war or in what is termed diplomacy, are still the true practical statesmen of humanity, for they illustrate and impress principles which cannot die— (cheers) —principles by which the whole future is beneficently affected, just as surely as the liberties of Hungary, come in what form or at what time they may—nay, the whole progress of Central Europe—are now indissolubly connected with the life of Kossuth. (Immense applause.) I have felt, for one, that this war in which we are engaged, this terrible calamity which, through the errors and crimes of past generations, has fallen on the present, is one of those incidents which never will be managed aright, unless we fall back on such principles. And Ido rejoice that at least one powerful voice exists which no fear can silence, and which will not be withheld from laying the truth before the audiences of the British people. Some persons, indeed,' suppose there is no need of this, others tell us it is dangerous, and certain parties give " satisfactory explanations." Such, if only for a moment, is the question as it avowedly stands. The broad issue is already before us, and on this let there be no mistake, whether we are to purchase peace from Austria ? If this is a war undertaken ostensibly for the solid pacification of Europe, are we prepared to accept a sham conclusion ? Are we prepared to be satisfied that these existing discords are huddled up— that we will purchase this as a satisfactory conclusion from Austria, and pay her a price, not blood, perhaps, but what is more, the guarantee of the prolonged de struction of the sccial lite of several of the finest races in the whole world ? I think I may take the voice of this meeting as replying that we will not pay such a price. (Loud applause.) And although unwilling, as I am sure we must all feel, to disturb the equanimity of such an estimable gentleman as the Earl of Westmore land, I do trust that when he is asked again at Vienna what is the meaning of this Glasgow meeting, he will find himself compelled to reply that the meaning of the Glasgow meeting is simply this—to declare that the British nation at least will not purchase peace from Austria. tTremendous cheering.) After a few further remarks, Professor Nichol concluded, amid reiterated applause, by introducing %I. Kossuth. M. Kossuru, on rising, was received with loud and continued cheering—the illustrious orator commenced his address by giving a short but graphic sketch of the history and results of the last great war in which this country was engaged with France. He then said—so much, gentlemen, has been by the inexorable pen of his tory already put down on the records of 1853-54, that judgment Great Britain can escape no more. But I, standing here before you, call on the history of times to come ; I call on thee to write down these my words in addition to what thou hast already recorded. There fore, should the British nation not take care to fix upon a well-defined positive aim in due time for this war, and as well with comprehensive wisdom, as also with manly resolution express her national will, so as to make it headed in Downing-street and Westminster Hall ;—but stop, beg your par don, gentlemen that won't do—l forget the letter of the Duke of Newcastle—l forget that you have no right to have a will about war and peace ; beg your pardon again ! let me anew begin my dictate to the pen of his tory ; and as the people of Great Britain had no right even to petition Parliament in direct reference to war and peace, matters entirely within the power and pre rogative of the Crown, thus it came to pass that the Oriental question has not been definitely solved by this war, the danger which by the unsolved pendency of this question hangs over Europe had not been removed ; and the British nation had, after innumerable sacrifices, to experience that, like as in her former wars she has fought but for a Bourbon, so in the present war she has been not gross without Britishmacl e tto fightpeople he e n H a s s t t b h u a r t g ct ; ont a ni n e_ d of impassive gr . e as t i materialthe egotism, still two such delusions could s r i t a e l m p p p t position, i o n From but alsor i ri ruinously revolution, unreasonable fear of foreign unavoidable y internalaffecting not condition hh only y f the th e B ex ri t t e i of the the national interests or the social condition sne _ ia Bri tish empire, the Cabinet of St. James's pursued I which in no way could have disadvantageously affected whirlpool of vio driven that prosperous country into the lent commotions at home and of humiliation abioad course of policy which, in its ultimate issue, has needs . So much of history of coining events. It is no pro phecy,‘he gentlemen. It is but political arithme tic. science of policy has its theorems settled like those of Euclid. To this portion of my humble remarks I have only to add, comparing your present situation to that in your French wars, I see that, in fact, you have the con solation not to fight for a Bourbon—that is negative ; in return you have got the pleasant and highly-liberal task of fighting for a Hapsburg—that's positive Well, a Hapsburg for a Bourbon—it strikes me that it does not sound like a Roland for an Oliver—a Hapsburg for a Bourbon! Let me use Shalsspeare's words, "Write them together which is a fair name?—Sound them which be comes well the mouth? Weigh them which is heavier ? Conjure with them which will start a spirit ?" The Bour bons will certainly start none any more—the Haps burgs probably may ; but it will be the spirit of assas sinated nations—Poland 1--Hungary !—ltaly ! I con gratulate you to that Roland for yonder Oliver (Loud cheers.) Or is it not so ? Are you not fighting for Austria ?

And what means the fact of having torn until now the ripe fruit of deliverance from our lips ? What does it mean, if it does not mean to be subservient to Austrian despotism ? (Hear, hear.) Well, if such be the will of the British nation we will bear it ; and, in spite of Great Britain we will not de spair. God will ho with us. I trust to his bounty and justice. And with this, and our own resolution, we will not fear Great Britain itself. Our nationalities have seen other storms—still there they stand ; a mourn ful catafalque, yet still alive ; murdered, yet still not dead ; though shaken, still unbroken and unbent. They will stand the British Lion also, if it must be. And if they could not stand his opposition (which I proudly deny), then I dare repeat the majestic prophecy of one of our own Hungarian poets— " A world in blood Shall attend the funeral rites." Yes, there will be blood enough to mount in gory clouds to the eternal throne, and fall back in hails of retribu tion from him who was saying, "Mine is the justice, and mine the revenge ;" so let it thus come if such be Great Britain's will. (Loud cheers.) But it is because I know that such is not the will of the British nation ; because I know that all the feelings of the British people are with us, and still see such things done in the name of Great Britain ; it ia therefore I aceept one out of four ~ l ,/ 7 7% - ~~~~ . .- c? , , ‘ . 4..:.--24, 1 ... • .."="..,.... . .c., 4 . k lt: ' . / .,,,s ~.,,,eq::- . 4 , • .--- •, _N ~ , 0 -VrA 1 , - I p...1 , .,_,1 ;;V , 1 . 1 ' ' ,. ... , . ~.,(1'. . .t1 . 1 ' .% V .

Here, in the country of the Bruces and Wallaces, of the Campbells and Grahams, I enter my protest upon the records of history, that when the day shall come when your country shall have to rue that Great Britain's ac tion did not answer the British people's will, it should be remembered that the British nation has been not un warned of the fact that she is made to bleed and to pay for a result just the contrary to what she meant to fight and to pay for. (Cheers.) If Ido not tire you, I will now proceed to justify my imputation that besides the anxious solicitude for the preservation of Austrian des potism, Great Britain is not yet conscious of any defined aim for this war. "The Oriental question is an European one. The independence and integrity of Turkey is ne cessary to Edrope." This saying underlies the situation. Many a man has repeated the words, but, perhaps, not ail took the trouble to come to a clear understanding about what it meant. Allow me to try an explanation. What does that signify, that Turkey is necessary to Europe? It simply signifies so much that, considering the geographical position of that empire, the seas which it dominates, the abundance of its natural resources, and the number as well as the spirit of its population, its position is such, that should it pass over into the dominion of some neighbouring great power or powers, it would be such an accession to their strength, position, and resources, as to make that power or powers dangerously predominant, and, in fact, the master dictators in the general policy of Europe. That is the definition of the European necessity of the existence of the Turkish empire. To this general view on the part of Great Britain enters yet the particular consideration, that it is only from the absorption of Turkey by some great European power or powers that for her Indian dominions, Great Britain can fear any thing from Europe. This short definition, with the additional remark, must perfectly convince all intelligent men of the supreme importance of the present war. I request you, gentlemen, particularly to mark that in my definition I used the expression of absorption by neigh bouring power or powers ;" this is essential, gentlemen, because it has become habitual not to think but of Russia, whenever there is a talk about a possible absorption of Turkey. It is strange, sir, with what littl e w i s d om the world is' ruled; as the famOus Swedish Minister, Oxenstiern said. Nothing in the world is so necessary to statesmen as the study of history, and yet it is strik ing how little the statesmen of our expedient-loving age know about it ; they appear rather to do all in their power to forget history, instead of studying it. (Laugh ter and cheers.) I must tell you, gentlemen, that the political axiom, that Turkey is necessary to Europe did not enter into the code of European policy from any fear of Russia, by the simple reason that it is older than the power of Russia. That axiom originated in appre hensicn of Austria. If you will look to the collection of treaties concluded between the Ottoman Porte and the Christian Powers, collected and edited by the learned Koch, in 1797, there you will see the exposition of the rtreemanktyrolC2 Since rlow haitzt,lt treaty it became 699,accompaniedb a by this rule,istorical rather to conserve the Turks in Europe than to expel thesin.' been Aconndclyul rememberc oncluded between that Austria th i s t a r n e d a t y rr o n f r k C e a y r , l ow it aftera ha the gallant Pole, Sobiesky, committed the mischievous fault of having, under Vienna's walls, and at the field of Parkany, saved Austria from Hungary and the Turks—a benefit in right Hapsburgian manner rewarded by a highway robbery—partition of Poland. (Cheers.) Thus you see that the maintenance of Turkey was origi nally, established an axiom of European policy, especi• ally . against Austria. At thattine Russia kvas 'no power yet. It had not yet emerged from its nothingness, by the despotical genius of the Czar Peter. Ten years later yet the heroic Charles XII. of -Sweden traversed all Russia with a handful of brave men down to Pultowa. Fifty years after that axiom had been established, the limits of Russia were restricted, in Asia to the Tanais ; in Europe, to the Samara, down to its junction with the Bug ; and from this point to the Tanais a line of de markation was drawn up by the treaty of Belgrade, in 1740, which left an immense territory between Russia and the Black Sea. The land of the Cossacks of Zaparo,g, that of the Tartars of Ocrakow and of Nogag and the Crimea, were not Russian. In Europe, westward of Samara, brave Poland lived ; in Asia, south of the Tanais, all was under Turkish suzerainty. It was but in 1774, by the treaty of Kitynardshy, that the Russians came down to the Dnieper and to the Black Sea; only, in 1784, that they took the Crimea ; and, in Asia, came down to the Kuban, on the Caucasus, and took Geor gia, the high road to your Indies. It is only Suwarraw, who came down to the Danube, and it is only the treaty of Adrianople which completed the disaster. By the by, this little geographical exposition may tell you what you have to think of that British 'policy which, with the established axiom of the necessity of Turkey, allowed, from mere expediency, Russia to continue her ravages through 120 years, a policy which allowed the Russo-Austrian crimes in Poland and Hungary, and wanted the secret Seymour Correspondence to awake it from its slumbers so late as in the year of our Lord 1854. That is the wisdom of expediency. It would be better for a nation not to be governed at all than to be governed by blind votaries of short-sighted expediency. Be ware of half measures, Great Britain, beware ! Thy own danger is next to come, in the expiation of political faults thy turn is next. Well, gentlemen, I believe to have pragmatically demonstrated that the necessity of the existence of Turkey has not an exclusive reference to Russia, but that axiom implies also a provision against Austria, with whom the danger of the absorption of Turkey originated, and with whom the desire to absorb Turkey is a hereditary quality inherent in her nature and her position. It is, therefore, that I asked in one of my former speeches—" How, in the name of common sense, can Great Britain think to link her self in this war to that Austria, which is an equally dan geous, equally irreconcilable, and more hereditary enemy to Turkey than Russia is ? To that Austria of which from Lord Aberdeen down to the last clerk in the Mi nistry, from the Lord Chancellor down to the greenest lord, from the Speaker down to the doorkeeper of the house, every man in hi s senses is perfectly conv i nce d that Austri a i s , as it was i n alt past, and will be in all future, perfectly r ea d y to share in any partition of Turkey," a truth so str iki ng, so evident, that I de clared downright for a lunatic whoever would entertain a doubt about this. And not one of those servile scribes, who, in the service of Austria poured out their vial of stupid sophistry against me, not one dared to contradict est Principalitiesp iasis of t e o v A e nutsstr? anden enormity, aFranceity, that i compel fthat Tfauertk, s Turkey my word, it wa s f oun d so true. And what is the new why, it is t t h h e at fa i c s t a th i a a t ct E o n f g s la u n e d h i to l g y i veover presentedthe i n D i a t n s u s la c i a a n n .. dames nudity, does not rouse the British nation, not only to anxious solicitude, but to indignation and anger, why, then, really I am perfect!y convinced that the British nation is already set down by history amongst those who have no future at all, but a short vegetation of a third-rate power, yet left a while, and then doomed to fall, as Carthage fell. There may already live some who, before they grow old, may do what Marius did at Carthage—sit on the ruins of your fallen greatness. Yet there come the wise elders ill your Israel, quite ra dient with the moonshine wisdom of expediency, and bid you to be of good cheer, because Austria gave satis factory assurances that the magnanimous young hope sincerely desires to conserve the independence and integrity of Turkey ; and that he will return the Da nubian provinces "so soon as possible after the next peace." That's the very word. Did he really ? Look, look ! there'S a good boy. " Bless his five wits." Oh, for a new Lear to " talk a word with this same learned Theban." Assurances ! Hapsburg assurances ! Well, that would be a fit occasion to expatiate on the value of Hapsburg assurances, Hapsburg promises, and Hapsburg oaths. But why should I soil my breath with that dirty stuff, and bully Your ears with a world-wide known tale ? It is nearly 300 years ago that the profound observer, Shakespeare, wrote his King John, and then already was Austria so conspicuous by falsehood and treachery, that you know his speaking of Austria as " a ramping fool, which stamps and brags, and swears upon one party, and does then fall over to the foe." It is remarkable : it is as if Shakspe are h a d written but to-day. Full right-. he was to dismiss the Hapsburg with the contemptuous curse— " Thou wear a lion's hide! doff it for sham e , And hang a calls-skin on thy recreant limbs." (Great cheering.) Full right he was, because through the three centuries since past, every century had to re cord at least ten broken Hapsburg oaths. And so dis missing the dirty theme, I will only say that it belongs to the A B C of statesmanship to know that assurances, in opposition to a power's history, geographical position, and political interests, are not worth a straw. Men who know not even so much should be sent to the first village schoolmaster to learn spelling in politics, instead of let ting them trifle with the destinies of nations. How many assurances gave the Czars that they would never occupy anything of Polish territory , and what has be come of Poland? How many times has the Czar sworn by solemn treaties eternal peace and friendship to Tur key ? How solemnly has he, on entering Wallachia, assured you that he meditated nothing against the in tegrity and independence of Turkey ? Did you believe him ? If the 'United States of America will swear that they will never take Cuba, if Great Britain would swear that it never more will extend its territory in India, would you not yoursei f call the man a fool who would trust it ? Well, just such is the ease about Austrian assurances as to Turkey. Look to the map ; there is the answer to those assurances—no reasoning against geography. Yet your statesmen tell one another gravely that they trust the assurances of Austria. That's more than what Roman augurs were able to do when two of them met. No ; it is sheer affectation, they don't trust ; but, to escape a little difficulty, they sacrifice the aim. It is political expediency. Bless their five wits, Moldavia and Wallachia given in keeping to Aus tria ; it is the poultry-yard given in keeping to the fox, to keep it from the wolf. (Laughter.) Nay, it is more ; Turkey had a purse. A highwayman came and asked the life or the purse. Turkey whipped the high wayman away; then came her tardy friends, Great Britain and France, and thus told her : Give your purse in keeping to this honest pickpocket here, or else it is with ets you shall have to do. That is the case, Poor Turkey ! Oh, what a shower of malediction will at once fall upon the memor:v of certain names. But what do they care about it ? They believe to have a little lessened some momentary difficulties ; as to what follows, why, let those who are the last behind shut the door. That's expediency—good ; be it so then. (Laughter and cheers.) Having defined this meaning of the political axiom, that Turkey is necessary to Europe, there are but few words wanted about the meaning of the Oriental question, which hung, hangs, and, if not solved, will con tinue to bang over Europe, like the sword of Damocles. The Oriental question is simply the problem how to put the territory of Turkey in such a position that it should not be under the constant danger of being occupied by such a powerful neighbour, or partitioned by such powerful neighbours, who by this accession would dis turb the equilibrium of reciprocal independence of the European states, and would become dictators in Europe's general policy. That is the Oriental question. Having it thus defined you can but agree with me that the Oriental question is not a question of the internal affairs of the Turkish empire, but exclusively a question of her position to her neighbours. Who are to be her neigh bours ? What are they ? Are they to be such as are necessitously led to wish to spoliate her of some pro vinces, or absorb her territory ? or are they to be such as will he necessitously led to do her no harm, but to leave her intact, from community of interest ? In a word, are they to be neighbours who must have the will, and the power to conquer her territory, or neighbours who cannot have the will nor have the power to harm her, but must have the will and have the power to aid her against foreign ,encroachments ? (Hear, hear.) That is the Oriental question, the internal condition of Turkey ; whether there be peace and tranquillity, or disturbances and revolutions—whether it progresses or decays ? All this can have an European bearing, and European importance, only with reference to that con sideration of neighbourhood. Any internal convulsions of Turkey are dangerous to Europe as long as there is a powerful ambitious neighbour or neighbours to profit by them ' - bit as soot' as this is no more the case, no in ternal convulsion in Turkey can affect in any way the general interests of Europe, in a political point of view, of course ; and you know that, to speak of sympathy in politics is a cant of the vilest hypocrisy. (Hear, hear.) This assertion is strikingly illustrated by the case of Mehemet Ali formerly, and Bing Otho now. In both cases Great Britain interfered. Why ? Is it because you preferred Mahmoud to Mehemet, or Abd-ul-Medjid 'to Otho !—the Turk to the Egyptian or the Greek ? Let us do away with hypocrisy. Great Britain did not care a bit about all of them. It interfered in the first casesimply because the convulsion caused by the progress of Mehemet Ali would have thrown Turkey a ready prey into the hands of the Czar, who would have finished with her by a partition between himself and Austria, leaving Egypt and Syria for the moment to Mehemet. And in the second case, Great Britain interfered because the Greek movement, if allowed to take consistency, would have assisted the Czar in his aggression. The neighbours ! always the neighbours ! The danger im minent from the powerful neighbours, —there was, and there is the Oriental question. It is this question, which, with dangers accumulated since the first partition of Poland up to the present day, at last has "drifted" Great Britain to a war, to use the ingenious word of Lord Clarendon. What is the proposed aim of the British Government about this war? This is the sovereign question on which everything depends. Once the aim defined, the logic of appropriate means becomes self evident. And a positive definition of the aim I believe to be due to the British nation, or else the Government may expect the blame from history that, by undefined generalities in the statement of the object, they meant to screen themselves from responsibility for a wrong choice of means. And the precision of the aim is like wise due to Turkey, as also to some other nations whom Great Britain, .by her ambiguous position, _has drifted, partly to expectations, partly to exaggerated fears. To come to an exact understanding about the real intentions of the Government, we must look to the official declarations of the Ministry, and to diplomatic documents. There we have, first, the declara tion of Lord John Russell, the President of the Coun cil, at his late re-election. Hespoke thus: "No insufficient peace ought to be made ; we ought not to lay down our arms until we have obtained security for the future. Having made the great exertions that we have done, and having our eyes open to the designs of Russia, we should be the most silly of mortals if we were to sign an inse- cm e peace, which would leave it to our greatest enemy to hide his time, until, by the dissensions of the other powers, until by weakness of some of those powers, he should find a better opportunity of accomplishing his design." Now, gentlemen, there is such a manly Bri tish spirit in this declaration of Lord John as would lead the world to believe that the British Ministry is bent on a definite solution of the Oriental question, the nature of which I had explained. (Cheers.) I would only like to know by what uninvented logic Lord John can conciliate this declaration with the Vienna Proto cols, signed by Great Britain, and with the enormous political crime of allowing Austria to occupy the Danu bian Principalities ? I say.boldly it is a politicel crime —no softer word can suit the fact. Secondly, there is Lord Aberdeen, the Premier. He, with very curious eulogies bestowed on the moderation and good faith of Russia towards Turkey, declares, that he also would wish, as far as reasonable, what is called the security of Europe, which, however, lie cannot say he feels to be very much in danger by the chance of Russian aggression —and referring to the effect of the treaty of Adrianople, that "lamentable as else it nsay have been, still it had secured the integrity of Turkey for the last 25 years," his lordship declared, that if the British Government could secure peace and the integrity of Turkey for 25 years to come, they would not do amiss, and that was the object which they had in view. (Laughter.) The worst enemy of Lord Aberdeen's political reputation, though endowed with the tongue of Demosthenes, could not thunder down upon the head of the noble lord a sharper philippic than he himself did by this his speech on the 19th of June. So I will not add any little blue flame of my matches to his own thunderbolt. I will only ask, Why has his lordship slept the sleep of Endymion these 25 years, that he believes the integrity and independence of Turkey has not been violated since the treaty of Adri anople ? Does he not know that Russia has occupied Moldo-Wallachia in 1848 ?—that she has usurped Turkish territory for making war on Hungary from it?—that she has commanded the money, provisions, and means of transport of Turkish provinces, for a foreign war, to which Turkey had been no party?—that she has blocked up the free navigation of the Danube, exclusively a Turkish river from Ada-Kale to Galatz ?—that she has exercised the most odious police measures against Turkey on Tur kish territory, under the pretext of guarantees ? He knows nothing of all this. (Hear, and cheers.) And again, I would ask, if there is no danger to what is called —only think ! something of so-called—security to Europe from the chance of Russian aggression ? Then, in the name of common sense, why go to war at all ? In fact, so strange were his lordship's declarations that they nearly have been about to raise a storm in the Pacific Ocean of the British House of Commons in the year of our Lord 1854. But no storm in the P,scific, gentle men. It was like the Prussian of world-wide renown, who, pulling up his sleeves in the beer-shop, cried out, "Keep me back, or I will fight him." (Laughter.) The motion has been withdrawn, the winds went to sleep, and the inexorable pen of history twice underlined the words already upon record —" In that year 1854 the British Parliament was particularly conspicuous by un precedented lameness of energy. Oh ! for one man with one spark of the Chathams or Foxes in his breast ! What a great man he could make himself in three weeks —the sound, honest, comprehensive common sense of the British people looking about with anxiety for a leader, as it is looking indeed. (Cheers.) Still the murmuring of the winds elicited an explanation from Lord Aberdeen. I have read it with great care, but I confess, in honour and conscience, I have seen the strange assertions of his first declaration rather explicitly confirmed than other wise by his explanation. The question is not what has he written in secret about the treaty of Adrianople 25 years ago ? but what is his proposed object in the pre sent war ? (Cheers.) His lordship confessed that should Russia take Constantinople there may be some danger to Europe, but not without this. From this we must in fer that anything short of the occupation of Cons tantinople would appear to his lordship perfectly satisfactory. Russia not dangerous to Europe unless she took Constantinople ! Why is it via Constan tinople that Russia took Poland ? Is it via Constan tinople that she tore Finland from Sweden? that she got hold of the future of Denmark ? Is it via Constan tinople that Russia attacked Hungary ; and, mark the word, is it via. Constantinople that Russia occupied Geor gia, the high road to Great Britain's heart—lndia ? (Hear, hear.) And then if the occupation of Constanti nople be a danger, then Lord John Russell is right in saying that the future must be secured permanently against this danger, and the enemy not left in power to bring that danger down upon Europe at the first better opportunity. But Lord Aberdeen is eminently wrong fee years' peace to Europe.

Poland, with your authority, with year aid in arms, will assure King Oscar of Sweden that lie is not to be left a sacrifice in the hands of an overpowerful Russia. Poland in arms gives you Sweden for an ally ; and Sweden, again, occupies at least 100,000 Russians in Finland—and, seconde I by your fleet, pushes on to wards St. Petersburg. (Cheers.) Thus you may tak• Sebastopol under these conditions. It will be but a fortress with a garrison. Your 30,0 00 braves w ill do the work. But not only will you have taken Sebastopol in that way —you will also have conquered the Czar. Poland in arms is the wedge driven in the backbone of. Itu,sta.

Oriental question (Hear, hear,) P ru d ence, i nterest, foresight, honour, patriotism, humanity, and civilisation, claim that settlement from you. To begin with the lamentable partition of Poland, this foulest act of diplomaticimmorality, enough of sacri fices 'nave already fallen to the accursed expediency of adjourning and always adjourning the definitive settle ment, this inevitable necessity. The delay of every new year will throw new sacrifices into that yawning gulf, and yet no delays can conjure the necessity—now unsolved, the question will soon return again augmented in dangers, increased in difficulties. Meet it, since yo* cannot conjure it ; finish it, since at last you are come at it. New objects may bring new wars upon your children, that you cannot prevent—liberty of all who are oppressed on earth could only prevent new wars freedom and justice to all on earth can only build up th• temple of lasting peace, amidst the exaltation of all hu manity ; but since that cannot be hoped for, so long as Plos El'bri°ePc stars, despotism can glory in rising on the neck of cu re, rbe nations to fame ; so long as Rotnanoffs and /lapsb u „h not only rule, but also alternately prevail in the cousnicntip e. of the only constitutional country so, at least el fight, you cannot spare your children ail spare them the curse of having anew to to bleed, which ithstandin , an ua. paralleled favour of opportuni ties, w 'nave drawn your sword ; but not 4- ch divine Prowl and t spend their life sweat tor a q uestion in you you still have left unfinished and in Hungary, and Italy, . hence brings within the reach of your hand in Poland. unsolved, only because your powerholding leaders have been blind, ignorant, or cowards i Oh, no ; they un derstand matters we P, and, bein g Brit ons, they are men : no, it is only because the y fear wh at the Britisk p eople e love At the very so und of which t he human h eart throbs with emotion of all that is g ood and what is divine the human heart.

(Laughter and cheers.) lam not a powerful man, but had I to drag a cart, I certainly would prefer to be left alone than to have an ox for a companion, which either does not move or pulls the cart back and me together with it. And this is precisely what Austria was doing all the while, and is doing just now, and will con tinue to do with you. (Cheers.) And again I hear that after all, if Austria were not with you, she would be against you, so it is better to have her with you on any terms. But that is again short-sighted sophistry. If you fear Austria, then, ordinary common sense would suggest to paralyse her, to make her innoxious, to put her in a condition incapable to do you harm. To come to this you had the means in Poland, H ungary, and Italy. It is clear as sunshine. The success was within the hollow of your hand. Instead of that your Govern ment chose to 'fetter Great Britain's hands by linking it to Austria. They yoked you to the unmoving or drag ging hack ox when you want to go ahead. Is that good sense ? Oh, desolation of abomination ! And I request you to con,ider to what situation you have drifted. (Hear.) The Turks, and not you, have beaten the Russians. Every core led knows that a victory is just so much as we profit by it alter. Now, the most ordi nary common sense would have suggested to hurry on with the greatest possible speed your Ailed 100,000 men up to the Danube, cross it, and combined with Omer Paella's army, push on after the retreating Russians, and take Bessarabia before they come to breath. Mind, Bessarabia means the Danube free ! Without Bessarabia wrested from Russia, only fools can prattle about the freedom of the Danube. Instead of that, what happens? Your dear ally Austria draws up in line between the victorious Turks and the beaten Russians, and says, " Stop, friends, I will keep Wallachia." Keep it ! From whom ? From the Russians. But they are re. treating ; therefore, from whom.? Why, from the Turks, that is evident,. (Great laughter.) The only gift which Great Britain and France have until now bestowed upon the poor Sultan is, that they brought down one of his mortal enemies, Austria, upon him, to keep his own pro vinces from himself, and arrest him in reaping the fruits of his own victory. But that is not all yet. As long as the Czar was on the offensive, the best service which Austria could do to him was to remain neutral. With so much he could advance to the Danube with perfect security. His left flank was covered by the sea, his right flank by the neutrality of Austria. And Austria did that service to the Czar. She was shuffling and fooling the W es t er n Powers, and remain e d neutral up to the very last reducedbav mo ment of the Czar's acti ng on t h e offensive. (Hear.) But the the exigencies firstry of h moment that t position ha i I(eHanesivre; h hear.) The neutrality of Austria would not do any more ; it was for the Tuiks just what it formerly was for the Czar. It would have left for the Turks the road open to the Pruth, and covered their left flank in pushing on offensively against Russia. Therefore, an other service was requirti by the occasion. " Stop be to Austria, and at the very moment the boy stepped in. tween, boy, and arrest my enemies," cried out the Czar —(Laughter.) And your Government calls that alli ance ; but I call it treason ! and your history will call it so.—(Cheers.) More yet. By this trick of Austrian perfidy, the Czar being relieved from every danger in that quarter, his right wing secured, he can and will now detach such numbers of his army hence as he likes, and concentrate them thither where you choose to at tick him. He at home, you thousands of miles far off ; you shall be beaten—remember my word. It is now you are come to the test about what I told Great Britain, that it is not abroad, not in the offensive that Russia is dangerous, except as a rearguard of other powers ; but it is at home in the defensive that s h e i s dangerous. Once brought to that point, it is then that you require allies. Have you any ? You have not. Is Austria for that purpose your ally ? No—a thousand times no. In that quarter, for that purpose, there are no other allies possible as we—Poland and Hungary I • And yet Britain rejects us ! Well, the doom will fall on the head of him who sinned. With us, you might have shaken hands in the Kremlin of Moscow ; without us, you are as incapable to harm Russia as a child. With us the world would have seen the proud spectacle of Schamyl and Omer, and Cambridge and Napoleon, and the descendents of Arpad and of Kosciusko, united on the plains of Russia, to thank the Eternal for the deliverance of the world ; without us you are doomed to be beaten, or to retrace your steps in shame.—(Tre mendous cheering.) Poland and Hungary are not beggars who mendicate your generosity, they are na tions which weigh your victory or your defeat "in the hollow of their hands ; as Poland alone has weighed, forty-four years ago, the victory or defeat of Na poleon the Great. But the prattling fools with whom you are cursed, tell you that, since now you have nothing to do on the Danube—oh ! bitter mockery of treason—you shall go and take Sebastopol and the Crimea. Before all, I must remind you of that geographical fact, that the taking of Sebastopol is no solution of the conflict, still less of the pending qsestion. It will not bring the Czar down to claim your pardon ; quite the contrary ; it will excite him to raging perseverance. Still less is the Crimea a security for the future ; it is no barrier which defends, it is au acquisition which requires defence. To take it, is nothing yet ; to keep it, that is the problem. Now, will you stay there to keep it ! I don't think so. You go home and leave the task to the Turks. Many thanks for the gift. (Laughter.) I, as the sincerest friend of the Turks, hope to Gud they will not be such fools as to meddle with that business. It is your own laundress work ; do it if you please. Ncw, as to the doing it ; I don't think you can take Sebastopol by the sea. The opportune moment of coup de main being lost, it would cost sacrifices which you neither can afford nor risk. And as to taking it by land ; to take a fortress, accessible by trenches, and having but a garrison to de fend it, that is but a matter of art and of comparative sacrifices. It can he calculated to the hour. But to take an entrenched camp linked by terrible fortresses and an army for garrison is it and now armies pouring upon your flank and rear, and you in the plains of the Crimea with almost no cavalry to resist them, that is such an undertaking to succeed in which more forces are neces sary than England and France ever can unite in that quarter for such an aim. Ask about it any staff officer who has learned something about tactics and strategy. And in that position is Sebastopol, thanks to your Aus trian alliance, which, having interposed herself between you and your enemy in Wallachia, made the Czar free to send such numbers to Sebastopol as he likes. Yon will be beaten, remember my word. Your braves will fall in vain under Russian bullets and Crimean air—as the Russians fell under Turkish bullets and Danubian fever. Not one out of five of your braves, immolated in vain, shall see Albion or Gallia again. (Hear, hear.) But tell you in what manner Sebastopol is to be taken. It is at Warsaw that you can take Sebastopol. Napier landing in Samogilia, and brave Poland rising at his gallant call, will at the very first moment engage 100,000 Russians. The first ace nint of Poland's resurrection can but spread dissolution in the Polish ranks of the Russian army, in three months the Czar shall have 300,000 men less, and shall avant 300,000 men more. his bravest provinces, twelve millions of Poles, will not only have slipt from his grasp, but fight against him— twelve millions left by your impolicy to be the source of [PRICE SD. ment, Great Britain does not - know her aim. For the third source of instruction there are the Vienna protocols, to which Great Britain is pledged. In that regard the world is indebted to Lord Lyndhurst for such a vivid, logical, and forcibly impressive elucidation of the subject that it would be unbecoming in me to enlarge upon it. I, therefore, will restrict myself to a few quotations. In the memorandum of Austria and Prussia to their en voys at the Germanic Diet, these powers declare that the war should, under no circumstances, have for result any change in the co-existing territorial positions of Turkey and of Russia. This is not a private view of Austria and Prussia. In the Vienna protocol of Dec. sth, to which Greet Britain and France are parties, the plenipotentiaries of the four Powers record with satis faction, that the existing war cannot in any case lead to modifications in the territorial boundaries of the two empires, altering the state of possession in the East esta blished for a length of time, and which is equally neces sary for the tranquillity of all the other Powers. Oie by all that is sacred to men, how could Great Britain sign such a—why, such a nonsense, that the uncrippled territorial position of Russia, with all the ill-gotten plunder secured to her, is necessary to the tranquillity of Great Britain ? Why, it is enough to make one mad only to hear of such a profanation of human intellect. (Loud cheering.) However, so much is clear from the quotation, that Great Britain has pledged her signature to the principle that the Status quo ante bdluta—that is, all as it was before—shall be the end of the war. To this, as a fourth course, Lord Clarendon answers that this may be the will of Austria and Prussia, but it is not yours—Austria and Prussia's will does not inter fere with the will of England and France. Really ? but, my lord, Britain and France have signed the protocol of December 5 ; they profess to act upon the principles laid down therein. And again, if your lordship does not agree with Austria, how can you ally Great Britain to Austria ?—nay, allow her to occupy the Danubian Turkish provinces, not because the Russians are there, but because the Russians are no more 'there ? Why it is enough to drive one mad ! Therefore the matter stands thus—Lord John Russell means security for the ' future ; Lord Aberdeen sees no danger, and means an unknown quantity in mathematics, and mul tiplied with twenty-five years' peace—(laughter)— the diplomatic protocols mean the status quo—Lord Clarendon means Austria's alliance at any price, though Austria be bent on an object which Lord Cla rendon disowns, _and. the _ people !—why the people means to fight fur freedom. Such is the-position. And what is the result !—a war without a defined positive British aim, but made subservient to Austrian despotism. However, if there be no harmonious chiming, rather a clashing charivari, between the words, and acts, and writings of the Government with respect to the proposed aim of the war, certainly every impartial and intelligent man can tell what should be the object of the war. It is simply the definitive solution of that Oriental ques tion which I believe to have in the right manner ex plained. Now, what is the definitive solution of that question ? Please to remember the definition I gave. The Oriental question consists in thus regulating the position of Turkey to her neighbours, as to have her secured from the danger of being absorbed or partitioned by them. In what manner can that be achieved ? Please to mark, gentlemen, how the problem is clearing before the eyes, if we proceed with the torch of logic and truth, instead of following the jack-with-a-lantern of political expediency. (Hear, hear.) There are two countries in the neighbourhood of Turkey—Poland and Hungary. But their condition may be different. Either subject to Russia and Austria, or independent and free. 1.1 subject to Russia and Austria, they are the sources of strength and power to them fort f h h t e occupation and partiti on o f th e are Tu the rkis m Turkish empire.ostperfectl seeyouarrietyinadgeapieonsdtent the ioanadefereeses,to ofhey the Turkish territory by conquest or by partition to the power of either or both of those mortal enemies of Tur keys f Austria possessing Hungary, and Russia posses ing Poland, will , be always two, neighbours ready to ' combine for the partition of Turkey ; and you cannot always stay or go there to assist her=you will not al- ' ways be in alliance with France. Turkey may be a match for either Russia or Austria, as in fact she is, but may not always be found a match for both—she may have her weak, her unprepared moments, which her enemies shall watch—she may have her engaged moments, and nobody at hand, when she cries out, " Help, Cassius, or I sink." ' Thus, you see, with Austria and Ruesiaretaining all Hun gary and Poland, the Oriental question is not to be settled. But Hungary and Poland restored to independence and freedom, the danger is entirely cleared for all eternity. These two nations cannot be imagined such fools as to desire to destroy what they want to maintain. Austria cannot more think of occupying some Turkish provinces, as she shall have Hungary in front and flank, and Poland in the rear. And Russia having lost the Polish forces, will neither have the power nor can think to attack Turkey, having Poland and Hungary in her flanks and rear, in case of such attack meditated. Neither could Hungary and Poland, bavieg Turkey for their natural ally, fear any attack from Russia and Austria. (Cheers.) Thus, and thus only, is the Oriental question to be, solved de finitively, and in no way else: Tuns solved, there is no danger more from whatever may happen in the interior of Turkey. She may develops her internal vitality, which she will, I trust, provided Great Britain wil t dis continue to meddle with the private affairs of Turkey, because Great Britain's dipping her kitchen spoon in every Turkish pot has done as much harm to Turkey as the open attack of an enemy could 'do. This 1 dare attest, because I know it, or it may happen that the Turkish empire changes into an empire of confederate states, or even may be decomposed into several indepen dent states ; yet whatever may happen, once the Eastern question is definitively disposed of in the manner I indi cated, none of these possible emergencies can affect the security of Europe, because none of them can throw the Turkish territory into the hands of powerful neighbours, who, by this accession, would become over dangerous to the rest of Europe. Thus it is clear to demonstration that it is only by Poland and Hungary that the Oriental question is to be settled definitively, and the world for I ever relieved from the certain recurrence of wars about the same subject. And it is of this benefit that your country in particular and the world in general is to be deprived by the jack-with-a-lantern man of short-sighted expediency, whose entire wisdom is but bent on escaping a momentary embarrassment at the sacrifice of the future. Gentlemen, Ido not like to say anything which might look like boasting of my own poor sagacity ; still, as I desire to convey conviction to your heart, I must beg leave to mention that it is scarely one month since I first spoke on this subjectpublicly, and already manythings of what I foretold have been justified by the course of events with striking celerity. I have told the British public that in this war nothing of a decisive nature can he done by your fleets ; that they are certainly a very valuable sub sidiary means, but no decisive instrumentality. And look how the organs of the Ministry are already soothing down the people, by trying to persuade them that it would be rather dangerous should Admiral Napier do anything. I have told the British public, that you never will bring Austria to do anything else but to oc cupy some Turkish provinces, where she shall not have to ineet Russian bayonets—my words are fulfilled. I have told that Austria may promise you to fight the Russians in case they do not recross the Pruth, but that, if she throws the dust of that false promise in your eyes, be sure of it, you will be already sold and betrayed ; it will be done in collusion with the Czar. Scarcely a fort ' night has passed since I told the word—and the fact I foretold has occurred, and the collusion I argued became evident, I have told, that if the Russians recross the Pruth, Great Britain and France will not dare to follow them—my words are fulfilled. You dare not, and you cannot dare follow them, without Poland and Hiingary to help you. I have foretold, that entangled as Great Britain and France are in the snares of a false alliance with Austria, the most embarrassing stress which can befall them is to hear that the Russians recross the Pruth. In scarcely three weeks after I thus spoke, the tidings arrive, and look ! what terror has spread over all quarters at the glad tidings of that success ; lookhow the Ministerial organs stare, struck with horror , and ap palled with fear. Oh, it would be supremely ludicrous, , were it not so terrible—but I really almost dread t, to speak, the seeing words the pronounce.l shadow Matters o accomplished are v facts er y clingingevident, gentlemen !

Hungary alone is a match for Austria— because we have proved it in 1849—just so clear is it that the Turks are a match to Russia in a defensive war. They have proved it just now on the Danube. That which at the utmost would have been advisable, is to have assured the Turks that they have nothing to fear, as in case of finding themselves inferior to the task, they shall be assisted, and, as an indication of your sincerity to have sent the fleet to the Black Sea, the very moment one Russian crossed the Pruth. And even this had been only neces sary, because Great Britain's eternal meddli g with Turkish matters had PO intimidated and demoralised the spirit of the Turkish Government (except a few brave men, such as Mehemet Ali discarded just by British influence), that without such assurances the intimidated Divan would nut have raised his resolution to a level with the vigour of the people, and would not have had the courage to command what the Turkish army we , - able to do. But for a mere defensive war you did not want Austrian alliances ; that is clear to demonstration. On the contrary, if you meant an inoffensive war, then it was the greatest possible blunder to court the alliance with Austria, which does not, and will not, act with you in an offensive scale against Russia; rather is it an obvious impediment to you, as it did not only protest in the name of "time-hallowed territorial limits 'against any offensive attempt against Russia, but is really acting accordingly at this very moment, to the infinite erubar. _ rasanaent of your wise politicians.
