In i96 uing our first address we promised to " sell none but Teas, we p'edged ourselves to keep none but Pure Teas," ' n u We positively asserted " that the Prices of our Teas should be " a scale of liberality till then unequalled." That we have redeemed our promise, that we have fulfilled our Pledge, that our exertions have been estimated, the extensive Patronage, accompanied by assurances of satisfaction we have re ceiYed even from the most distant parts of the kingdom, sufficiently testify.

We will uniformly prove that purity, fineness, and excellence of luality, combined with an unparalleled smallness of profit, are the q ' s tioguishing characteristics of No. 1, St. Paul's. 48 we were those on whom the honour devolved of fully carrying out the philanthropic measures of Government in the recent re duction of the duties on Coffee, we are determined to maintain un equalled a combination of excellence and cheapness in that article.

Mr. C. S. CROWLEY seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. The CHAIRMAN said Mr. Samuda, one of the p.i tentees of the atmospheric system, had just entered the room. He was sure that gentleman would feel great pleasure in answering any questions that might be put to him. Mr. W.Cubitt, one of their engineers, was also present, and would give any information touching upon the ge) eral features of the proposed line. Mr. W. CUBITT, in answer to a question from Sir J. Stirling, said he hai: gone over the line, and was able to state there werc no obstacles that could be called difficulties upon it. Sir J. STIRLING would offer two or three observa tions on the communication this railway offered to the Government in a naval and military point of view. The two great forts of England, Chatham, and Portsmouth, would, by the proposed line to Chatham, be closely connected, and the Government would be enabled with facility, and great advantage, to make one garrison serve for the defence of both places in the time of war ; it must, therefore, be a great object with the Government to promote such a line. As to the importance of the railway in naval matters, it was only necessary to say that Ports mouth must ever be the great naval station of this country, except in the case of a war with the northern nations of Europe, including Holland. In this case the river would become the position requiring defence, and as in a military, so in a naval point of view, the proposed line would afford the Government the means . of transferring men from one point to the other. Again, this line proposed to connect Ports mouth with the great military arsenal of Woolwich. This, he conceived, would be sufficient to induce Go vernment to give all reasonable countenance to the undertaking. Deptford must also be included in this view of the proposed line. The adoption of the atmospheric principle for this line would ap pear to promise very great advantages, amongst not the least of which was the rapidity with which almost any number of men might be dispatched from one end of the railway to the other. With these opinions, he begged to propose—" That such a line, being in immediate communication with the projected London and Chatham and Chat ham and Portsmouth Junction Railway, as well as with the Greenwich Railway to Deptford, the great national object of uniting by a continuous line of railway the three important naval and military sta tions of Chatham, Deptford, and Portsmouth, will be materially promoted." Mr. LLOYD seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. On the motion of Mr. ALLEN, seconded by Mr. PRITCHARD, it was resolved—" That such a line will at the same time afford the advantages of a railway communication with the metropolis to a large and important district of country between Epsom and Portsmouth." The lion. J. C. CARNEGIE, in rising to move the next resolution, expressed his conviction that the pro posed line would have an excellent traffic. The line would go through a portion of the Government plan tations, the oaks in which were comparatively almost useless from the fact of there being no means of con veyance within 12 miles. He then proposed—" That whilst a railway from Epsom to Portsmouth will thus afford such great public advantages, it will in the opinion of this meeting command a greatly increased traffic between the metropolis and the districts of Surrey, Sussex, and Hants, through which it will pass, and between London and Portsea, Portsmouth, the Isle of Wight, the port of Havre, and the Channel Islands, sufficient to afford an amply remunerative return for the capital expended." The CHAIRMAN said he would here observe that he was sure they all felt there could be but one direct line to Portsmouth—(Hear)—and if they were to take this project up seriously, as he hoped they would —(Hear)—it was as necessary for them to oppose any other line as to support their own. They did not like to be brought into opposition with others, but if parties would oppose them, they (the promoters of the direct line) must take all the advantage which the superior character of this line, as well as its being first in the field, gave them. When they (the pro moters of the direct line) went to Portsmouth, the other day, there had been no direct line to that place proposed. Gentlemen in that town were then, cer tainly, ready to support a line from Brighton, in pre ference to one from the South-Eastern ; but he be lieved there could not be two opinions about this, that had any direct line been proposed, there would not have been any debate about either a Brighton or a South-Eastern line to Portsmouth. Mr. ROBERTS having seconded the motion, Mr. Hosicuis (of Portsmouth) said there had re cently been a strong demonstration made at Ports mouth in favour of a line from Brighton and Chiches ter to Portsmouth, in opposition to that which the in habitants considered would not be so beneficial to Portsmouth—viz., a line from the South-Western ; but had the now projected direct line been known—had the probability of it been contemplated for a moment —there were parties at Portsmouth who would at once have come forward to promote it in preference to either of the other projects. He was satisfied that of these 2,500 persons whose names were attached to the requisition for that line, nine-tenths of them would have preferred the direct line. This line was now before the inhabitants of Portsmouth, and everybody said it was the line that would best suit the wants of the town. As between the two lines already adverted to, the people of Portsmouth sup ported the one from Brighton by way of Chichester in opposition to the South-Western one ; but now that a direct line was offered to them, they at once preferred it. The resolution was then carried. A resolution appointing the Directors, having been carried unanimously, and a vote of thanks given to the Chairman, the meeting broke up. DESCRIPTION OF REMARKABLE FARMS. BY ADAM BROWN. No. ll.—Near Kelvedon, in Esser.' and s,e But let us r e t urn to the railway. We may take another road b ac k to it. We shall enter Chelmsford at a partiryeod orseveral narfpkorri no egb s e y t s t r s h e epeotmrsfo, protected beingccrescents,Aterde agriculture ey i and lt . t " olaces"i canno r are they help be reared for p ersons w h o are st i ll i n, or have aa in habited tw , NN'h aree paid remarking come out of, unprotected trade ? They are the last. London—commercial, competing, intensely competi tive London —sends hor tradespeople down to Chelmsford now that the rail is so convenient; and there they take lodgings and buy butter, and milk, and vegetables, and and and poultry, eggs, beef, and bread, protecting, while they do so, Mr. Baker and others of his neighbours from having to eat all those things themselves. We are again on the rail, faces eastward, and dashing along as fast as the wind that comes with us from the west. So much for the enterprise of traders and the strength of commerce. This railway was made to facilitate the transit of agri cultural produce, not by the growers but by the pur chasers of that produce, and yet the growers want to be protected from those! purchasers, one-third of whom would treble the amount of what they now con sume, and one-half of whom would add a third to what they now consume, even though they got nothing more than barely three meals a dav, if they could afford to pay the price. Mr. Robert Baker limits the supply to them, and he also advocates the perpetuation of their limited ability to buy. That vast community of London —who eat the produce of almost every blade of grass and ear of corn grown in Essex, and who depend on the commerce of their City f or employment, and for the means of paying for every blade of grass and ear of corn, and who have neither enough of work to do, nor money to pay —Mr. Baker speaks to us thus —if not in actual words he does so in effect : " You are the persons who pay for blades of grass and ears of corn. lam the person who sells blades of grass and ears of corn. You say you want more than I have to give you ; and you tell me you would buy still more if you were allowed to add a little to your ability by going elsewhere. That may be, but you are not allowed to go elsewhere ; a n d so l ong as I can prevent it, you never shall. What, although you taunt me with not cultivating my land well, and growing as much upon it as I might do, I defy you to interfere with me, and make me do otherwise than I am doing." But we have arrived at another station, at the diz tance of another twenty miles from London—forty miles in all. This is Kelvedon. We here hire a gig, and drive five miles north, to a farm called Tiptree Hall. _ Here we find a farm-yard, farm-house, barns, sta bles, sheds, and everything very complete and com pact. We find every fence running square and parallel, and all clear and useful as fences should be. We find the soil to be very inferior compared with Mr. Baker's farm. Yet we find that while Mr. Baker has been allowing his soil of best quality to run out of cultivation into grass, allowing even his grass to run into rushes and marshy bogs, this cultivator has been bringing his poor soil into the highest state .of cultivation. He has one hundred and thirty acres, for which, just about the time that the Anti-Corn-law League became a giant, he paid 3,2501. He is not one of the League ' • but he is a believer in the virt ue o f agricultural enterprise in preference to agricultural protection ; and so far is he from supposing that free trade would injure the English farmers—and so far from having listened to the forebodings of the alarmists, who are lei on by Mr. Baker to cry " Land must go out of cultivation if free trade is carried"—that he has, since January, 1843, expended in hard cash the sum of 6,200/. in improving his farm, every penny of which, he is sure, free trade or no free trade, will be repaid him with a good profit. While Mr. Baker has been laying the League prostrate and slaying it, and receiving the great token of the age, " a piece of plate," for having upset, and d es t roye d, and utterly annihilated the League—for go the inscrip tion on the silver sets forth his services—this farmer has been quietly cultivating his land, and employing at least twenty times more labourers than ever Mr. Baker employed on the same number of acre s . H e h as thus stated, in letters to a local newspaper, the nature of his improvements :—" Ist. The perfect and per manent drainage of the land with stones and pipes, 4 yards apart, and 32 inches deep— between 80 and 90 miles of drains.-2d. To the entire removal of all timber trees, which cannot be profitably grown in cern fields.-3d. To the removing all old, crooked, and unnecessary banks, fences, and ditches.-4th. The cutting new parallel ditches and fences, so as to avoid short lands.-sth. The enclosure of waste, and conversion of useless bogs into good soil. 6th. The economising time and distance by new roads, arches, and more direct communications with the extremities of the farm.-7th. The erection of well-arranged farm-build ings, built of brick, iron, and slate, in a continuous range, excluding all cold winds and currents of air, but open to sunny warmth.-Bth. The building a substantial and genteel residence, with all due requisites for do mestic comfort and economy. 9th. The erection of an efficient threshing machine, and needful apparatus for shaking the straw, dressing the corn, cutting chaff, bruising oats, &c., so constructed as not to injure the straw; avoiding, by its perfect action, that immense waste of grain visible in almost every truss of straw we examine.-10th. The avoidance of thatching and risk of weather, by ample barn room, with convenience for in-door horse labour at threshing, &c., when not em ployable without, so as to have no idle days for man or beast.-11th. The saving of every pound and pint of manure by a tank (90 feet long, 6 feet deep, 8 feet wide, with slated roof facing the north, and with well and pump), into which is received the whole drainage foom the farm-yard and stables.-12th. The convey ance by iron gutters and pipes of every drop of water from the roofs of each building, so as in no manner to dilute the manure in yards.-13th. The perfect drain age of the foundations of the barn, and every building on the far:n.-14th. A steam-house to prepare food for cattle." He says he is thus particular to state his alterations, because—" It is from each of the above branches of expenditure that some portion of remune ration is expected." And again he ceys—" During the progress of my undertaking I have been warned, entreated, and dis suaded by my farming friends, who protested that a profitable return for such an enormous expenditure was impossible. My calculations, however, were made, and mere assertions without facts and figures weighed nothing with me." This is business-like in a farmer. And it may now be worth while to inquire who this farmer is. It is not a new thing to find that a man who has been bred in trade makes the best farmer. This is another instance of it. This agricultural reformer of Tip tree Hall, in Essex, is a tradesman from Leadenhall street, in the City of London ; no other than Mr. Mechi, of the magic razor-strop. The tenant who occupied Tiptree before Mr. Mechi bought the land is still upon it. I shall hereafter mention some particulars of their bargain. He looked with amazement and dread at Mr. Mechi's first proceedings; but he is long since convinced that they are sound, practicable, and profitable. Mr. Mechi says, after stating the benefit to the crops :—" In a moral and social point of view, these improvements have acted beneficially. They have excited the energies of the tenant and his labourers, stimulating them to think, compare, and improve. They have awakened the curiosity of the neighbour ing farmers, who are watching the result, and al ready have they caused many undertakings in drain age, which otherwise would not have been thought of." He adds :—" Had I invested my money in the funds, there would have been an end of the matter ; hut now I have the satisfaction of having fulfilled a public duty (without injury to myself), by calling into action, temporarily and permanently, a consider able amount of labour. I conceive that the highest order of charity, which, by providing employment to the willing labourer, confers a favour unseen and leaves uncompromised (his most valuable privilege) his self-dependence." Mr. Mechi says he may be asked, what can a Lon doner know about farming ? If so, he is prepared to answer that he has been always fond of the country, and has been a close observer of the condition of agri culture. " I have seen," he says, " one farmer making a fortune, and his next neighbour losing one : I have seen one field all corn, and another nearly all weeds." And, concluding for the present, so say I. It is the weedy field and weedy farm whose occupier calls most lustily for protection. But Mr. Mechi is one of those who know how to make agriculture protect itself.—League. YOUNG IRELAND. " Erin ! an exile bequoaths then his blessing, Land of my forefathers ! Erin go bragh ! It cannot be matter for surprise that any English Minister should confess Ireland to be his chief diffi culty so long as the Executive continue to counte nance modes of administration subservient to expe diency, and, therefore, inimical to just and disinte rested principles—a petty species of Government, that, in its most successful hour, is merely calculated to bestow temporary and shallow benefit. That mea sures for Irish relief, framed in a friendly spirit, have occasionally emanated from the British Senate it would be both unfair and unwise to deny ; but, neverthe less, they have been uniformly conceded as hard wrung boons to party clamour, rather than bestowed on the nation as her right. The consequence has been that the factious and discontented have, in each in stance, eagerly availed themselves of the ungracious ness of the givers as a plea to militate against the value of the gifts. Speeches have been spoken— pamphlets written—meetings convened, productive of no happier results than adverse individuals forcing each other to eat dirt—whilst the great bulk of the populace, for whom these wordy wars are ostenta tiously waged, derive from them neither moral nor physical advantages. It is but little to the purpose that Mr. So-and-So rise " to advert to various Irish penal enactments," or " dwell upon several facts in Irish history," and then sit down again ; it may be unsuggestive of any better remedy for these grievances than constant subscriptions to precursor or repeal clubs. The whole social body needs amendment, and it is not by eu logising the shadowy glories of 011 am Fodhah, or execrating Saxon misrule, that this can be effected; neither will the tranquillity of Ireland be perfected through the misrepresenting fulminations that some times disgrace the Orange press and Orange dinners. " You hear of our case as in a dream, but feel not the smart of suffering that we endure," was the retort of the Geraldine to Cardinal Wolsey, and it is worthy of the deepest consideration that the complaints of the great Earl of Kildare, in Henry the Eighth' s rei gn , were but the prolonged echoes of previous centuries of woe, whose vibrations extend, with little variation, even to our own times. Such lengthened discontents —such reiterated complaints —may well appal the stoutest mind as to the possibility of finding. a Hercules to cleanse such Augean heaps ; but in truth it is beyond the power of any one man, or any one set of measures, however firmly and judiciously benevolent, to eradicate these long and deeply-rooted shoots of evil. All Ireland must bestir itself—high and low, rich and poor. Protestant and Catholic must, to render it effectual, unite in the sublime work of national regeneration, and immolating on the altar of patriotism their long-cherished vulgar pre judices ; their mutual rage, fear, and hatred, join hand-in-hand to annihilate that demoniacal party spirit which has transmuted the historical annals of their country into the record of one vast and prolonged faction fight. Let Irishmen remember those men who pretend that the grievances of their native land may he best cancelled by inspir ing an excitable and ignorant peasantry with hatred of the English name—let them remember thatdomestic discord first summoned the English to their shores, and through domestic discord was the union finally cemented. England has had much to answer for— much of neglectful injustice and oppressive pecula tion—but! she is, not_the -only guilty one, nor has Ireland even b een t h e i nnocent victim that some of her so-called patriots would represent her. Na tions are like individuals ; their faults and follies should be alluded to with tenderness, and never save with the cordial hope of amendment. Flatter them, and they become self-sufficient and reckless ; degrade them in their own estimation, and they sink into sullen apathy, or are goaded into passionate irritation. Poor Ireland has suffered alternately from both treat ments: now surfeited with a "too-high flavoured bowl" of flattery by the one side, and anon by the other insulted with vilifying suspicions. Well might she say," Save me from my friends, and I will take care of my enemies !" But through the long list of her woes history confirms the sad truth that her worst enemies have ever sprung from her own bosom, and that the truculent ranks of en Anglo-Irish faction, rather than the English people at large, have contained her most relentless oppressors. Without diving into remote periods, the proof of this fact may be clearly deduced from the events during, or subsequent to, the late Rebellion when the coercive measures adopted by the Irish Cabinet were, Lord Clare openly asserted in the House of Lords, " to his knowledge, extorted from the nobleman who governed that country." But a truce to these old grievances— a truce to the humbling, exposition of pa r ty frailty— let "rascally Papi s t s ' and " bloody Orangemen " cease to bandyderisive and insolent epithets ; let them become less eager in the expression of their mistrust ful opinions; more anxious to co-operate in plans for the general good, regardless from whom these plans may emanate, provided they be good, and more certain benefit will accrue to their country than in agitating for a native Parliament, or aspersing the Catholic hierarchy. The results of a repeal of the:union, until it be granted, must be problematical ; it may certainly be productive of remedial measures, and again it may furnish but a more imposing arena for the renewal of political squabbles —a licensed board on which to display sordid desires and petty jealousies. Are the men of the present day wiser, stronger, more honest and uncompromising, than those who heard the sublime apostrophe, " Ireland is now a nation, and bowing to her august presence, I say, Esto perpetua . 9 " Yet scarcely had these words died on the ears of a free native Parliament, ere it commenced signing its own death-warrant. Scarcely had the almost superhuman exertions of the illustrious Grattan been crowned by success, ere he had to mourn over the ingratitude and unworthiness of those for whom he had so long striven. But though the success of repeal to the dis passionate must remain doubtful, there are measures open to the pursuit of every friend of Ireland, whose success, be they but adopted with " a single eye" to patriotic philanthropy, cannot admit of a doubt. With the undeveloped resources of a fruitful land re maining t o be opened—with the poor to be supplied with work—the ignorant to be instructed—there is surely a fair and wide field spread for labour, in which the best, the noblest, the most highly-gifted, might cincur for the happiest results. There are bogs to be drained, waste lands to be improved, canals to be dug, railroads constructed, manufactures improved. Why, in the name of qommon sense, not expend a por tion of " rint" and pathotic energy in promoting such means of progress ? How much can be effected through small beginnings, but with honest persever ance, the establishments of Mr. Bianconi amply testify, by whom many hundreds are daily employed in fur thering the increase of traffic and social intercourse. If the chivalrous motto of ancient France, " Fais 1e Lien advienne que pourra," fail to awaken the public mind, will the insinuating whi s pers of self-interest prove equally abortive ? Irishmen, it is for your interest, regardless of rank or creed, to adopt such measures; your green isle needs not an agitation— scarcely now, thank God, a Liberator—but she is most lamentably in want of an unprejudiced Pacificator AN OLD HIBERNIAN.

THE DIRECT LONDON AND PORTSMOUTH RAILWAY. ATMOSPHERIC LINE. A numerous and influential meeting of the Provi sional Committee was held on Wednesday, at the offices of the Company, No. 15, Parliament-street, Among those present were the Hon. J. C. Carnegie, Vice-Admiral Sir J. A. Ommaney, Sir James Stir ling, Captain Cornwall, R.N., Mr. W. A. Wilkinson, the Chairman ; Mr. P. Roberts, Deputy-Chairman ; and Mr. B. Baines, Mr. C. S. Crowley, and Mr. J. Lawrie, Directors of the Croydon Company ; Mr. 11. Allen, and Mr. Hoskins, of Portsmouth; Mr. G. Baker, of North Chapel ; the Rev. P. Ford, Mr. J. R. Greig, and Mr. R. P. Pritchard, of Liphook ; Mr. F. B. S. Wilder, of Godalming, and several other influential members of the Committee. Mr. W. A. Wilkinson was, on the motion of Sir J. Ommaney, unanimously called to the chair. The CHAIRMAN said, gentlemen were perhaps aware that it was while the Croydon Company were progressing through Parliament with their Epsom Bill, that the Directors were first invited to promote a direct line from Portsmouth to join the Epsom and Croydon Railway. There could be no doubt that a line extending eighteen miles out of London, and having a station at London-bridge, and another at the Bricklayers' Arms, must afford very great facili ties to any line that might choose to join it from any district with which it was in direct communication. It had appeared to the Directors that with their sys tem of proportionate tolls, and the great advantages he had just mentioned, they were in a position to offer such inducements as to afford a preference to any line that sought to join their railway.—(Hear, hear.) Indeed, the Directors could not but think that the facilities to be afforded to a direct Portsmouth line by the Croydon and Epsom Railway, in addition to the latter consenting to forego any toll on the traffic to be brought by the projected Company, till the Proprietors of it received four per cent. on their capital, gave them (the Directors of the Croydon and Epsom Company), as well as the promoters of the undertaking, a position which no other Company could pretend to assume. He should observe that the present meeting had been called for the purpose of appointing a Board of Direction for carrying out the project of the direct Portsmouth line. With re spect to that Board, it had been deemed right to select for nomination to it several gentlemen who were con nected with the proposed Chatham and Portsmouth line, others who were interested in the Portsmouth line, and several of the Directors of the Croydon line. The fact that the proposed direct line to Portsmouth was to be an atmospheric one had rendered it desir able that gentlemen connected with the Croydon and Epsom line should be among the Directors, and for the reason that they had given their most anxious at tention to the atmospheric system, and several of those interested in that r a il w ay would be nominated. Sir J. OMMANEY wished to know what steps had been taken to ascertain how far the atmospheric line about to be laid down was likely to succeed ? The CHAIRMAN said, that for the success of the at mospheric system, they depended on the satisfactory trial that had been made of it at Dalkey. The Direc tors of the Croydon and Epsom line considered that the mechanical difficulties of the atmospheric system, such as they were, had been overcome. As to the commercial part of the system, that they must try. They were most sanguine, and he thought he might take upon himself to say reasonably so, as to its re sults in that point of view_ They had examined the working of the line at Dalkey, and the result they had arrived at was the conviction that the atmo spheric railway, when once laid down, might be worked at about half the expense of a locomotive line. They would permit him to say that a rail way traffic was a mode of carrying a large number of persons (and it was only by a large number of per sons it could be successfully carried out) at a smaller charge, and with greater rapidity, than they were carried by the ordinary modes of conveyance. It was by the atmospheric system that this desirable plan could be most effectively secured, for though there might be a comparatively larger outlay at first, the traffic Could be carried on more economically and greater facilities afforded, than by the locomotive system. One of the Committee inquired whether the pro jectors of the line had been before the Board of Trade? The CHAIRMAN said they had laid the Chatham line before the Board of Trade, and in doing so they had connected with it this undertaking, as one which was at that time projected ; but so large a number of shares had been subscribed for the direct Ports mouth line, that lie hoped they would in a few days be in a position to go before that Board.—(Cheers.) Ile project had taken a strong hold of the public mind, and, in short, everybody now saw that this was the line to Portsmouth, and as such it was spoken of. He also perceived that the atmospheric system was now coming strongly and prominently before the attention of the public. The South Devon line, fifty-two miles in length, was to be worked on this system, and contracts for that purpose had been entered into with the representatives of the atmos pheric patent. They knew, too, that the Directors of the Great Western Railway had gone to Ireland, where they were to meet Mr. Brunel, for the purpose (as we understood) of inspecting the working of the atmospheric line. The promoters of the direct Ports mouth line depended much on their adoption of this principle for the success which they hoped to obtain ; they thought it affording the means of putting them selves in advantageous competition with any parties who might oppose the line. Sir J. OMMANEX said the explanations that had been afforded by the Chairman were so satisfactory, and the advantages to be derived from the adoption of the atmospheric principle so manifest, that he had great pleasure in moving—" That a railway from Portsmouth to join the Epsom Railway at Epsom, to be worked upon the atmospheric principle of traction, will, in the opinion of this meeting, afford a materi , ally shorter, cheaper, quicker, and better mode of WALSALL. PRESENTATION OF PLATE TO J. B. SMITH, ESQ. THURSDAY MORNING.—A most interesting festi vity took place here last evening, on the occasion of presenting a splendid silver salver to Mr. Smith, of Manchester, which had been subscribed for by the ladies of the borough, in testimony of the high esteem in which they held that gentlemen's exertions in the year 1841, when he contested the borough against the monopolists, and laid the foundation for the future success of the Liberal candidate. When Mr. Smith arrived at that time in Walsall, the elec tors were under the most grievous despotism, but such was the effect produced by the determined stand made by the free traders, that in the course of six months after Mr. Smith's defeat, the principles of free trade triumphed in the return of Mr. Scott, the pre sent excellent representative of the borough. Ever since this change in the tone of public opinion, the ladies of the borough have longed for an opportunity of expressing to Mr. Smith the deep obligations they 'held themselves under to him for his stern, but gen tlemanly and independent advocacy of the interests of their borough. They accordingly set a subscription on foot to purchase a silver salver. In a short time the money was raised and the plate purchased ; but owing to the great depression of trade, and consequent want of spirit amongst the inhabitants, the presenta tion of the salver was deferred until yesterday, when a grand soiree took place in the large Assembly-room at five o'clock. Several hundreds of the most re spectable ladies and gentlemen of the borough sat down to tea, which, with all the arrangements, re flected the greatest credit upon the fair caterers, under whose management the festivity was got up and conducted. Robert Scott, Esq., M.P. for the borough, presided ; supported by John Bright, Esq. ; M.P.; Charles Greatrex, Esq.; Thomas Brittle, Esq.; Samuel Cox, Esq.; Samuel Wilkinson, Esq., &c. Amongst the ladies who graced the head table, we observed Mrs. Cox, Mrs. Grafton, Mrs. Myring, Griffiths, Miss Mall, Mrs. Creswell, &c. The repast being over. The CHAIRMAN said—ln an assemblage composed as that was, of many ladies, it would be highly im proper to commence the proceedings without allusion to their most gracious and beloved Sovereign. It was one of the glories of England to be subject to female dominion, and it was a still further g lory, th a t in the hi s t o ry oithis country the dominatiofi of the more tender sex had been productive of greater hap piness and prosperity to the nation, than the sway of great and mighty men. If ever they had reason to be proud of their Sovereign, it was at the present time —(Cheers)—when they had upon the throne one who was the solace and comfort of her own home, who had set an example well worthy of imitation, who had a heart to feel for the distresses of her people, and who would, if she could, have long since relieved them from those infamous bread laws which had so long oppressed her people, and ground them down to the very dust.—(blear, hear.) lie most cordially pro posed the health of her Majesty, which was received with loud applause. The CHAIRMAN said they had lately witnessed some slight revival of trade, at the same time they could not forget the great and appalling distress which had so long prevailed in that town and neighbourhood. — (Hear, hear.) They ought to be thankful for the change which had taken place, but they could not hope, under the existing laws, that the present pros perity would be permanent. He was well aware that many of their legislators were influenced by good_ mo tives, but they were unfortunately ignorant of the real wants of the people, and deficient of that com mercial knowledge which would enable them to legis late as they ought to do for the interests of the proposed, country at large. He with all his heart, "Success and Prosperity to the Manufacturing I n _ terests of Great Britain. Mr. H. WALTER, from Wolverhampton, in re sponding to the toast, said that the public were much indebted to the ladies of that borough for the part they had taken in the agitation of the great question of free trade. It was a question which came home to the wants, feelings, and affections of those who were so keenly alive to the necessities of their fellow creatures. The CUAIRMAN then came to the principal busi ness of the evening, and in doing so he must, he said, beg their indulgence whil e h e adverted to the cir cumstances connected with their firstacy h aintanc re e with the honourable gent l eman to whom that evening abo u t t o pay so marked a tributeeyofwree spect. He well remembered when in the year 1841, they were call e d upon to come forward ard as the cham pions of free trade in England. That was the first borough in which the question was fairly tried, and nobly inde e d did they respond to the call. He well knew the anxiety which the friends of free trade had felt at that period, and the difficulties they had in pro curing a candidate to stand forth the uncompromising advocate of the great principles which they were de sirous of testing in that borough. It was at that moment of difficulty and struggle that Mr. Smith— (Loud cheers)--a gentleman of great station, of well known character, of extensive commercial knowledge, . , 7 / L4 l ...4.----e.-- _ . ~. ,--• i -,....„ . , ..,..,. . 71 --- ' , • ki 1 1 '.:3, ,.*) , cr t 4; 4 ~---. ~ • ‘ ) ~, • ' ', ,' ' - .

Mr. Smith was then the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce in Manchester, chairman of the Anti-Cern. law League, and universally known and respected throughout the country. He came to Walsall at their request, and conducted the contest in such a manner as to meet, not only the applause and esteem of his friends, but even the approval of hi s opponents. There was:not a person in Walsall who could be found to utter a single wordagainst Mr. Smith daring that influences to which he had already adverted, b memorable contest. They were, h ow e ver, borne donby t until they had reduced the majo r it y of their opponents to that point which proved the imp oss ibili ty of him or any other monopolist again successfully to contest the borough. The ladies of Walsall felt grate ful to Mr. Smith for his invaluable services, and they resolved that, 'at some future time, they would prove the estimation in which they held him, by the pre sentation of a substantial token of respect. He would not detain the company longer from the enjoyment they anticipated in the presentation of that tribute, but sit down, leaving the next part'of the business in the hands of those with whom that rested. Mr. Cox then rose, and taking up a very splendid silver salver w hi c h was on th e t a bl e , presented it to Mr. Smith, sayi ng , I h ave great honour in handing over this piece of plate. The Honourable Gentleman accepted the plate, which was a piece of exquisite workmanship, and having upon it the following in scription :—" Presented to J. B. Smith, Esq., by the ladies of Walsall, as a testimonial of their gratitude and esteem for the patriotic and spirited manner in which he stood forward in February, 1841, to contest the representation of the borough against a monopo list and bread taxer, for his upright and independent conduct and urbane demeanour during the struggle, for his general and undeviating advocacy of the rights of labour and happiness of all, in opposition to the selfish interests and domination of a class. May he live to enjoy the reward of his exertions, in beholding truth triumphant, and his country happy." Mr. SMITH then rose, and was received with loud and continued applause, which lasted for a consider able time. After the enthusiasm had subsided, the Honourable Gentleman rose and said, he was exceed ingly happy to have the pleasure of meeting them on that occasion. After so long an absence, they would not be surprised that he felt some embarrassment at coming before them, and inadequate to express him self upon the reception of that beautiful testimony of their kind esteem and regard. He could assure them he never could forget the kindness of his friends at Walsall, particularly the ladies. It was delightful to him to see so many th en around him who had cheer e d him on in his contest, and many of whom had made great sacrifices for the advancement of those principles which he and they deemed essential to the welfare of their country. When he first came to Walsall he had not the most distant idea of becoming a candidate, and it was no thing but a deep sense of the importance of the strug gle in which they were then engaged that could have induced him to engage in so arduous a contest. It was the first struggle for free trade which they had had in the kingdom. It was nobly fought, and though they were defeated, they were greatly indebted to the generous enthusiasm o f th e l a di es for the fa vourable struggle which they h a d ma d e . Wh en he commenced the canvass his opponent boasted that he could command seven hundred voters, and that he (Mr. Smith) could not:command five hundred supporters. He believed there was some truth in the calculation which was then made, and if he had come forward upon any other grounds than those which he had adopted, he never could have succeeded to the extent he did against such odds. He did not come before them as the advocate of any faction, nor the tool of any party, but he preached a new doctrine, which found a response in the heart of every man, woman, and child in the borough. He contended for the right of every man, who could make any description of goods, to exchange them for any other kind of ar ticles in which he might stand in need. He con tended for perfect freedom of trade, independent of any paltry party consideration, and having submitted tlie arguments in favour of this principle to the people of Wallsal, they at once saw the reasonableness and jus tice of them. They saw how intimately their own immediate interests were bound up in the question, and what was the consequence ? Why the election came on, and instead of having 300 majority, Mr. Scott was returned by a majority of 22. [The Hon. Gentleman concluded a powerful speech, and having thanked the company for the honour they had con ferred on him, sat down amidst great applause]. Mr. JOHN BRIGHT next addressed the meeting in favour of free trade, and made a most eloquent address, after which several other toasts were given, and the company separated, highly delighted with the evening' entertainment.

NEW POLICE-COURTS.—It is now, we believe, de finitely arranged that the two new police-courts recently erected at Stones-end, Borough, and at Kennington. shall be opened simultaneously about the latter end of this month. The business that is now transacted at Union-hall will be divided between these two courts. The whole of the M, and the inner portion of the P division charges will go to Stones-end, whilst the L and outer portion of the P division will take their charges to the court at Kennington, to which the Lambeth-street magistrates, clerks, ushers, &c., will remove, it being the intention of the Government to fourt altogether.
