No Shaks P ere then may string the lyre, no N ew t on may measure the heavens ; but it will be rather an idea, when judicious enlight enment will pervade almost every community, and when liberal and refined accomplishments shall distin guish every family.—(Loud cheers.) 'What I want you to feel—what I want you all, if any of y ou h ere have not joined it—what I want you all to join' such an institution as this for, is to make you feel how much each of you singly may do to aid this great censummation.—(Cheers ) I know that the enemies of mechanics' institutes and of popular institutions generally have been apt to say that they have a tendency to make the mechanics and working men, whom especially they are intended to benefit, puffed, presumptuous, conceited, and discontented. All I can say is, that if they do so, they fail singularly in their purpose, and fall full short of their aim. It ap pears to the that there are two principles upon which we must mainly rely for success in any attempts to raise and regenerate mankind. The one is to have a very high opinion of what we can do, the height to which we can soar, the advance in knowledge and in virtue which we may make—that is ambition as con cerns our capacities. The other is to have a mean opinion of what we at any time know, or at any time have already done—that is humility as concerns our attainments. The ambition should be ever stirring us up to the even and steady development of righteous principles, and, where the opportunity presents itself, to the performance of noble, meritorious, and nasal • fish actions. Humility should ever keep in view that there is a sphere of life, however humble—no round of duties, however unexciting, which any one of you may not enliven and elevate with qualities besides which the successes of statesmen and the triumphs of conquerors are but poor and vulgar.—(Cheers.) I believe there is no eminence to which man may not reach, but be must reach it by suborning all unlawful impulses, a n d b y subduing is a gener a l crav i ng in the all mean ambitions. There human mind for grea tness and distincti on . Thetis gre I greatness and distinction, am thankful t o thi n k , within the reach of any one to obtain ; but the greatness and ,omuz.ction must not he without you, but within —(Loud cheersl ' should be sorry to appearto Ya t u a . ke this opportunity— as some persons do —of preaching what might be called a sermon, but I feel so fervid an interest in the welfare and progress of the great body of my coun trymen, that I cannot refrain a iueu from enjoining them, even while I wou ld i nv i te them t() full enjoym en t of all the rich resources and all the sures of this our var i egated world, never t o t o e h P o e l a lose hold of religion. I d o not mean that you d necessarily associate with th ose stiff and narrowedu persons who so confine the ethereal spirit of religion - but 1 feel assured that it is th e source among man kind of all that is great and lovely, and that without it all would be painful and joyless. Under her sacred wing you may securely resign yourselves to all that is improving in knowledge, or instructing in science, or captivating in art, or beautiful in nature. The Architect of the Universe, the Author of Being, such as .Christianity represents Him, cannot but ap. prove of every creature that He has made developing to the utmost extent the faculties He has given him, and examining, in all its depth arid mystery, every work of His hand. Shut up the page of knowledge and the sources of enjoyment from the multitude because some have occasionally abused the blessed privilege! Why, the very same argument would consign every man and woman to a cloister, because the world and active life are full of traps and pitfalls. —(Hear.) No. Pre-eminent and supreme as lam convinced religion is, yet to make her so in the con victions and hearts of men, I feel she must discard all timidity —must front every truth in the full blaze of light, and sympathize with every pursuit and every impulse of the race. I may thus briefly shadow my reasons for thinking why no person ought to frown upon mechanics' in stitutions. I do not wish to attribute to them any exaggerated or imaginary value—l do not hold them forth as singly containing the elements with which' we should hope to regenerate modern society, but it is because I believe them calculated happily to chime in with the existing wants and prevailing dispositions of the times—to afford opportunities for improvement and development in quarters where they would not otherwise be found—to promote innocent recreation and blameless amusements, and generally to assist the progress of mankind. It is on these accounts that I thus venture to recommend them to your cordial sympathy and your active assistance ; and, with this hope, I will conclude by moving " That me chanics' institutions, having for their object the ad vancement of the people in solid and useful education, deserve the support of all classes interested in the welfare of their common country." After some more speeches, the motion was unani mously carried, and the prcceedings terminated by a ball. [PRICE SD. THE LATE WRECK OF THE YACHT OWEN GLENDOWER. On Thursday a meeting of the committee of the Royal National Institutims for the Preservation of Life from Shipwreck was held at the offices, No. 20, John-street, Adelphi ; Thomas Wilson, Esq., late M.P. for the city of London, in the chair, supported by Captain Sir Baldwin Welker, R.N., Surveyor to the Navy, Commolore Sir Thomas Herbert, R.N., Captain Davies, R.N., of Penzance, Captain erning ham, R.N. (who had come up expressly from Ports mouth to attend the committee), Lieutenant-Colonel Colquhoun, R. A., Captains Ellerby, Perrott, and Preston, and James Peake, E.“zi., Royal Dockyard, Woolwich. After reading the minutes of the former meeting, sanctioning the establishment of life-boats, &e., at Penzance, Sennen Cove, Bride Haven, and St. Ives (involving an outlay of some hundreds of pounds, and which makes the total number of life-boats be longing to the society 24), it was unanimously re solved, " That in appreciation of the humanity of Captain Hein, of the Russian barque John, and of the gallantry of Thomas Larkin, his mate, on the occasion of the late wreck of the yacht Owen Glen dower, off the Arran Islands, they be presented re spectively with the silver medal of the institution ; and that the five men who accompanied Larkin in the ship's long-boat in going to the rescue of the owner and crew of the yacht, be rewarded with one sovereign each." The silver medal of the institution was also voted to Richard Pearce, REq , of Penzance, for his former frequent valorous and perilous intrepidity in the rescue of numerous lives from ►hipwreck on the coast of Cornwall. To William Hood, captain of the Seaton Carew life-boat, the silver medal of the society was likewise voted, in appreciation of his noble conduct in having gone off to wrecks in the boat on 32 occasions, and rescuing with his crew 120 shipwrecked persons since the first es , Alishment of the boat in 1823. Hood, also, receives a pecuniary reward from the local committee every time of going afloat in the life boat to save life. VV The gallantry of five labourers in the employ of Mr. Moberly, of the alum works, Sandsend, near Whitby, was substantially recognized by the com mittee by being rewarded with one sovereign each, in consideration of their having gone off in a common coble to the reFcue of a poor fellow who was seen clinging to the side of the sloop Friends' Goodwill, which bad been capsized near Whitby during the ter rific storm of the 26th ult., and whom they reached as be was washed off, and only in time to grasp hi s hand as wi h will l e was understand that sinking Wethe institution, as soon as it s f allow it (and we regret to, learn that it s income is greatly inadequate for its philanthropic objects), contemplates placing either a life boat or a life-preserving apparatus on all the dangerous points of the coast. During three days alone of the latter part of last month 98 shipwrecks took place on dif ferent parts of the coast ! NEW ZEALAND COMPANY.—An adjourned general meeting of the proprietors of this company was held yester. day afternoon at New Zealand House, New Broad-street, Mr. G. Lyall presiding in the absence of Mr. Aglionby, M.P. The usual formal notice having been read, the chairman said that the reason of these constant adjournments was to avoid the expensive process of convening a special meeting every time. The directors were now endeavouring to come to some final arrangement with the Canterbury Association and their creditors, but at present the negotiations were not suf ficiently far advanced to be laid before the general body o f the shareholders for their sanction. There was reason to be e lieve that these matters wo uld be favourably adjusted within a short time, so as to e nable the proprietors at their next meeting to take a c omprehensive view of the present position of the company's affairs, and their relation to the Govern ment of this country and the le g islature of the col ony.

NEWBURY, OCT. 30.—At to-day's market we have rather a largo supply of wheat, the condition of which is scarcely so good as of late; fine selected parcels renlised fully last week's rates, but other sorts are more difficult of sale, and to effect seles a reduction of Is per qr had to he submitted to, at which decline a fair clearance was effected. Barley, a large supply and in brisk demand , at fully the advanced rates of last week; in some in stances those rates have been slightly enhanced. Oats, beans, and peas, hut little doing, at late rates. LIVERPOOL, OCT. 31.—Fair quantities of oats and oatmeal have been received from Ireland, but very little of wheat and flour, We have not had an arrival from the United States, and only one cargo of for ortseign of pro duce, viz., of beans, from Egypt. The exp the two days are large, and embrace 5.805 barrels of flour to the Cape of Good Ho p e ; 3,230 barrels of flour and 2,700 quarters of Indian Corn to Ireland; and 1,349 barrels of flour coastwise. At this morning's market wheat did not move freely. but all qualities were held with much firmness. For flour there was a good healthy demand to consumers and for shipment, and extreme prices were paid; choice qualities are scarce. I:ish new oats de clined id per bushel, and oatmeal 3d to 6tl per load. Barley, beans, and peas were unaltered in value. Indian corn fully supported late rates, and there are symptoms of a larger Irish demand. ExeTER, OCT. 31.—Cattle Market.—The supply was tolerably large, hut the demand, especially for sheep, was not brisk. Fat beef, from 7s 6d to 7a 9d per score. Prime heifers were from 101 to 11/ Ils each. Cows and calves were not plentiful, and the prices ranged from 91 95 to 121 each. Barreners were on offer, at from 4s to 53 per score. There were air. f steers driven in, at prices from 111 to 18/ per pair. Sheep were plentiful, but did not tell freely—prices were somewhat lower than last week. Wethers sold at from 4id to 4/0 per lb; ewes, 4d to sd. Store pigs were plentiful, and 5s per score was the ruling figure.

THE CLOTHING MANUFACTURES. FNGLISR WOOL, LEEDS, OCT 31.—Sales of combing wool this week have been limited to the immediate wants of the manufactures. Prices are quoted as stationary, but the tendency is in favour of the buyers. Low and middle clothing wools are scarce, and prices firmly main tained. FoREIGN WOOL, LEEDS, OCT. 31.—Business has been very flat in this market since our last report, and in con sequence cf the unremunerative prices offered for their goods, the manufacturers generally show great indispo sition to operate at the advanced rates now current at the London sales. Levineeca, WooL, Om 30.—The imports of the past week consist of-363 East India, 57 Donskoi, 270 Mo gadore, 574 Lisbon, 16 Oporto. Fine wools in fair de mand at full prices; low descriptions rather quiet; stocks of bo'h arc light. TRADE OF LEEDS —We have this week had a very dull market at our cloth-halls, and the manufactures continue to complain loudly of prices compared to the price of the raw material. In consequence many of the country mills are working less time, to avoid the accu mulation of stock. Business has also been unusually dull for the season in the warehouses during the week. TRADE OF LEICESTER.—The demand for goods has very much slackened, particularly in the lower kinds of hosiery. Several large manufacturers have suspended making until the i ff:ct of the present flatness upon wages is ascertained. Regular wrought hose are in better re quest. .The glove branch is aleoyeey dull for the sea-, son: reirn; tsr - eiilentitul, - rand the spinners are contem • plating working short time, as they cannot realize the present price of wools on their sorts. But little is doing in wools, and staplers are not dis p osed to give way. There is a brick demand for noils and short sorts. BRADFORD, OCT. 30. Wools—The market cannot be duller, for no one seems in the slightest humour to buy. The quantity now consuming is far less than it has been for several years past, and the spirit of animation shown at the Colonial sales now progressing does not extend here. The demand has for some time past been in the finer sorts, but they are now very dull of sale, and prices are sought for them which deter the spinners from buy ing even on a small scale. Neils and broke are firm. the quantity offering being so very limited. Yarns—lt is quite impossible for this branch of our trade to be worse, nor was it at any period ever known so bad as at pre sent, for to sell is impossible, except at the cost of top, and in many instances the whole forfeiture of the spin ning wages will not meet the prices current. Pieces— The quantity of goods now changing hands is annually small, quite as limited as the production ; suckle still ness has not been observed for a long period, ataatie dyers complain of great inactivity, so that any derma " in the home trade must be lessening the stocks in th'es. merc hants' warehouses, as th e y are not buying. TRADE OF MANCHESTER, OCT. 30.—There was rather more firmness, it anything, in the market, as compared with Tuesday, but prices were still generally below the rates of last week, with great dulness. There have been some fair purchases on India account, but only where the offers of buyers were more favourably received, and at a sacrifice to the manufacturer. In water twist, ordi nary qualities of No. 12 are quoted at 6d to 6/d, being a decline of Id to id per lb on the prices at the com mencement of the month; 20's are at id to 4d decline, and 30's at Id decline. The prices of the higher counts are better maintained. The quotations of mule are rather better maintained in the lower numbers, but are from Id in decline, whilst medium numbers aro id to id lower, and 80's to 100's, ordinary quality, i-cl to lid lower. Narrow printers are quoted about lid decline, but the finer 36 inch grey printing cloths are from 2d to 4d lower, and shirting lengths of the same goods se much as 6d for the commoner qualities. Prices are very irregular, so that these quotations, in the present state of the market, can only be tken as an app to the rates at which transactions are taking place. roximation COAL MAIM t.', Bate's West Hartley 14s Gd Dean's Primrose Newcastle Hartley Holywell Howard's W.

LIVERPOOL, OCT. 31.—At twelve o'clock today most respectable meeting of merchants and traders took place in the Clarendon-rooms, to consider the best means of raising the funds fbr conducting the inquiry into the conduct of the judge of the County Court, before the Chancellor of the Duchy of sth of Lan caster at Preston, on Wednesday next, the November. In consequence of the resolution come to by re the Town Council on Wednesday last , " that they gre tted they could not legally appropriate the borough funds to the purposes of investigation," the present meeting excited considerable interest, and many of the first merchants in Liverpool were present at the appointed hour, among whom we noticed Mr. S. Holuie, Mr. Bennett, Mr. Bigharn, Mr. C. Brod ribb, Mr. J. M . Whitty, Mr. J. B. Je Jones, H ffry, Mr. Mr. Wagsteff, Mr. J. C. Ferniough, Mr. A. F. Mr, J. Heigh, Mr. R o g ers, Mr. Avison, A. Wylie, &c. On the motion of 11r. Alderman BENNETT, and S A MUEL HOLME , E-q., was voted to the chair, opened the business ot the meeting by saying that it was scarcely requisite to enter much into detail as to the resolution which had been come to by the Town Council, relative to the approaching inquiry before the Earl of Carlisle as to the conduct of the judge of the Liverpool County Court. This meeting, however, being rather for business than speech -making, he would conclude by stating that a sufficient sum must be raised this day tojustity the committee in going on with the investigation, as men,uld not lee expected that twenty or thirty gentle who would be bound to see the expenses paid, should bear the whole burden ; and it was now the business of the meeting to decide what was the best course to adopt.—(Cheers.) Mr. BRODRIBB said he very seldom interfered in any local questions ; but this was one which concerned not only Liverpool, but every town in the kingdom. — (Hear, hear.) While he was willing to subscribe his mite toe pursuit of the approaching inquiry before a th o arlisle, he must protest against any sub the Erlf C scr iption being entered into by the inhabitants of Liverpool, who had municipal representatives, whose duty it was to see that this matter was properly in vestigated.—(Cheers.) He would'protest against any private subscription, and proposed that the inhabi tants should compel their municipal representatives to appropriate their own funds to this most important service; for which purpose he moved that a requisi tion be presented to the Mayor, requesting him to call a town's meeting without delay..--(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN intimated that, as counsel must be retained by to-night's post, the proposition would be equal to an abandonment of the inquiry. Mr. BRODRIBB said his object was to call the at tention of the inhabitants to the conduct of t he irhe mleu nicipal representatives. The mayor might l upon to convene a public meeting, and funds would be forthcoming immediately. The CHAIRMAN stated that an enormous majority of the Town Council would have voted for defraying the costs of the inquiry out of the ton funds, butt for Mr. Crompton's opinion, yet a few w minutes er wards a sum of 7,0001. had been voted as an addition to the salary of the mayor, to defray the expenses of the late Royal visit. The Council had given a deci sion, and there was not now time to summon a new council; they must therefore lot the matter drop, or at once enter into a public subscription to defray the expenses of the investigation. He contended that it was not the duty of the inhabitants of Liverpool or of the Council to provide the means of carrying out this inquiry, but it was the duty of the Government to do so, instead of the Attorney - General being sent down to oppose the public voice as expressed in the nume rous and respectable memorial that had been pre sented to the Earl of Carlisle.—(Cheers.) Mr. AVISON said that there was not sufficient, even in the opinion of counsel, to justify the municipal au thority in refusing to entertain the question of pay ment out of the borough fund. Mr. Councillor BIGUAM, seeing that the time was so short, sugges t e d whether it was not wor th while abandoning the present me morial, and presenting ano ther to the E arl of Carlisle, requesting him to post pone the inquiry for a few days. The CHAIRNIAN preferred the bold and open course, an d thought there were objectio n s to this proposition. Mr. WILEY also thought it would be tantamount to an abandonment of the prosecution. Mr. JEFFERY said if a guarantee were adopted he would commence with 501. Considerable discussion took place, during which it was agreed that a subscription should be entered into by the gentlemen present, which was accordingly done. Several gentlemen put down their names, in three or four minutes the sum of 1071. was raised, and papers were filled up for a sub-committee of six to go on 'Change and solicit subscriptions, one and all expressing their confidence that the 1,0001. would be raised, although it was still deemed advisable to hold the public meeting which bad been previously proposed. Mr. C. E. Rawthis, in a brief but practical speech, moved the following resolution :—" That a subscrip tion be entered into by.the public of Liverpool to prosecute the inquiry before the Chancellor cf the Duchy of-Lancaster. on the sth November, at Pres ton ; but that it be entered into under a protest that it does not relieve the Town Council from their duty to undertake that office, and can therefore form no precedent for the future." The resolution was unanimously adopted ; and a finance committee, with ,Mr. John Mather as trea surer, having been appointed, the meeting separated, Mr. Jeffrey announcing that it was of the utmost importance that all parties who had evidence to give touching the matters involved in the inquiry should promptly come forward to the office of Messrs. Fletcher and Hall, solicitors to the committee. KOSSUTH DEMONSTRATION IN MARYLEBONE. A public meeting of.,the inhabitants of Marylebone was, last luglit-Air 'a*. -Concert-room of the — Princess's Theatre, for the purpose of voting an ad dress to Louis Kossuth. Those who called the meeting must have had every reason to be satisfied with the manner in which their appeal was responded to. Long before half-past six, the hour when the chair was advertised to be taken, the hall of the Con cert-room was completely filled, and from that hour the working classes continued to pour in till every nook and corner was crammed to suffocation, the pressure frequently interrupting the proceedings, and the audience were jammed together in a manner which rendered it quite wonderful that they should have endured it for three long hours, especially as the eloquence of some of the speakers was not of a very exciting character. The secret of there being such a crowd, however, if one might judge from the inquiries that were made on all sides, was the expectation that the Hungarian exile would himself attend the meeting and address the assembly, an expectation that was fated to be disappointed, as Kossuth did not appear throughout the evening. At half-past six Lord Dudley Stuart, according to advertisement, took the chair. He was accompanied by Sir B. Hall, the other Member for the borough (who had left Wales in the morning to attend the meeting), Mr. Williams, M.P. for Lambeth, Mr. N icholay, Mr. Beales, Mr. Cooper, and a great num ber of the vestrymen and other respectable inhabi tants of Marylebone. The gallery of the hall was at first set apart for ladies, who nearly half-filled the place—the remaining.room was, in the course of the evening, given up to as many of the crowd as could find admission—so that the ladies were as much crowded above as the rougher sex were in the bay of the hall. There was, however, as much order preserved as was compatible with the inconvenience which every one must have experienced from the ex traordinary pressure. The Noble CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings of the evening, stated that the object of the meeting was to consider whether the inhabitants of Maryle bone would offer a welcome to the illustrious patriot who had lately landed on the shores of this country— whether they would join the citizens of Southampton and London, and the United States, in doing honour to this champion of constitutional liberty.—(Cheers.) He knew what their answer would be. He knew it, because it was true what Kossuth had the day before addressed to the citizens of London, that Kossuth was a principle. Yes, much as they admired and vene rated the man—much as all who had an opportunity of approaching him were charmed with his manners —much us they were astonished to find him who had only been one week in London addressing the people in speeches which the most finished orator in the land could not equal—much as they sympathised in his misfortunes, still the real motive of their doing honour to Kossuth was their desire to do homage to the great principles which had ever guided his ac tions.— (Cheers.) They saw in Kossuth the imper sonation of the cause of Hungary, and of the cause of national independence and liberty all over the world.—(Cheers.) And let them remember that in advocating the cause of liberty he had always had re course to legal and peaceful means.—(Cheers.) He was no revolutionist, who, for the sake of supporting his own novel and crude theories, wiehed to disturb the existing order of things, and involve his country in confusion and bloodshed.—(Cheers.) He endea voured to do what their forefathers had done, and what they were doing by lawful and peaceful means, to enlarge the constitution of his country.—(Cheers.) What he struggled for was that the people should be fairly represented—equality of rights for all—the doing away of privileges—trial by jury—the Habeas Corpus Act—liberty of the press—civil and religious freedom. Had not we in this country got all these ? —(Cries of " No, no," and loud cheers.) Let them hear him out—they had got them all in a great de gree, and what was wanting they meant to get.— (Geueral cheering.) Yes, b u t that was not revolu tien—that was true Conserv a ti s m. They were none of them revolutionists. He was sure not a man present was. Their object was by legal, pea ceful, and cons . itutional memos to prese rve what they had got, and to obtain more. Were they all agr&d on that ?—(Cheers.) W e ll, then, that was exactly what Kossuth and hi s br a ve Hungaria ns at tempted to get. It was after e n j o ying these p rivile g es for a little time, and when the Crown attem pted to take them away by force, it w as then only t hat the Hungarians had recourse to ar ms , as it was the ir dut y to do, to defend their constitution.—(Lou d cheers.) But these matters had been misrepresented in this country by a portion of the public press. But the truth was, the Emperor of Austria proclaimed a con stitution for Hungary on the 4th of Ma rch, 1849, which never was intended for more than a s ham — w hich was never acted up on — an d which was torn up and annulled in May last. It was only w hen this sham constitution was offered them, instead of their own ancient and venerated constitution, that the Hun garians took up arms in defence of their rights, and in many a pitched battle vanquished the hirelings of Austria, drove them out of Hungary, till there was only one small spot of the country where an Austrian soldier could venture to set his foot. Then it was that that great enemy of the happiness of the human race, the Emperor of Russia—(Groans and yells)—sent his hordes of armed men—and something besides armed men, corrupting gold—to break down the unity of the Hungarian councils, and destroy the independ ence of the people.—(Hear.) He could not tell with whet delight he listened to Kossuth when stating this truth, that Russia was the great enemy of the freedom of mankind. It was what he had been labouring to impress upon the people of this country, both in public and private, for the last twenty years, and now Kos suth came to confirm his words. The Noble Chair man then referred to the cause of Poland, which he said was identical with the cause of Hungary, and that the partition of Poland had been the beginning of all the evils of Europe. There was another country to which the meeting ought to direct its attention— the country of Turkey. All honour to the Sultan— (Loud cheers), —that magnanimous sovereign who interposed between the brutal forces of Russia and Austria and the life of Kossuth ! If be was convinced of anything in this world, it was this, that Kossuth owed his life in the first place, and his liberty in the next, to only two men in Europe, and those two men were the Sultan and Lord Europe cheering,;and.cries of " Three cheers for Palmerston.") They had been nobly a ssisted b y the p e ople of the afr UnitedS i etantdelsy, welcome otmveereonnohwis arrival linon their shores;g to give Kos suthand what he asked now was—whether the men of Marylebone were prepared to join in that universal feeling which was rising tip to welcome that great man, both from England and America ?—(Cheers.) Mr. NICHOLAY, in moving an address of congratu lation to Kossuth, said the private life of that distin guished man had been assailed as well as his public greatness; but he hesitated not to brand the calum niat n. of his private life as a liar, a profligate, and a scoundrel.—(hears.) The Prime Minister of Aus tria was at the battom of it all—Prince Schwartzsn berg ; and all that had been adduced against Kossuth was hearsay. But he could state against the Prime Minister cf Austria substantial facts. When Prince Schwari z?nberg was in England--[the rest of the sentence we decline publishing]. Agaiest that man en action was brought, and some thousands of pounds damages were recovered, and the money was unpaid up to that very hour.—(Great laughter.) He fled from the country—he ran away. He did not like to deal in private scandal ; but people who lived in glass houses should not throw stones.--(Cheers.) After some further observations, the speaker concluded by pro posing the following address : " TO lIIS EXCELLENCY LOCUS KOSSUTH. " Honoured and respected Sir,—We, the inhabit4ntb of the barcugh of Marylebone, in public meeting as sembled, deeply impressed with the importance of tht% principle, now more than with any other identified with your name, and in the full conviction of the worthy man ner is which you have represented the cause of your noble fellow-countrymen, and, through them, the cause of human progress throughout the world, beg most re spectfully to offer you our warm congratulations on your arrival, after the perils:you have so nobly passed through, in safety upon our shores. " We had long watched with intense anxiety the pro gress of the struggle so gallantly maintained under your direction. With much that was necessarily vague in the state of information respecting the institutions of a country remote from us by distance, and remoter still in consequence of the artificial barriers created by sys tems of government equally opposed to our institutions and to yours. we, nevertheless, knew that the contest on the part of Hungary was for the maintenance, and not the destruction of a constitution; that not a party merely, but a nation was in arms; that the rising Of the country was neither the result of anarchical aims on the part of the masses, nor of oppressive encroachments on that of the aristocracy, but that it was the constitu tional resistance of a whole people to a grinding foreign tyranny. And enjoying, as we do in this country, the blessings of constitutional freedom—the rich inheritance bequeathed to us by our ancestors—we felt that, if ail other nations looked on in indifference, from England, at all events, Hungary was entitled to the deepest sym- pathy. " Unspeakable was the gratification we felt at the va rious successes of Hungary until she fairly won that in dependence which, but for the subsequent interference of a third Power, she would now enjoy. Words are weak to express the feelings with which we• regarded the events which followed ; and, therefore, with the simple expression of our indignation at acts on the part of Austria and Russia from which humanity revolts, and which civilised Europe must for ever condemn, and deeply condoling with you, Sir, for the loss of those gallant spirits who fell during and after the conclusion of the strife, we leave this painful subject. We hope for the future rather than waste unavailing regrets upon the past. And firmly convinced as we are of the im portance of the principle of non-intervention in the affairs of other countries, we hope and trust that, in any future struggle of this kind, England will not only observe, but will also have the will, as we doubt not she has the power, to enforce it. " Having identified your name with the cause of your country, we feel no doubt but that your own noble heart wilt be most gratified with the expression of such senti ments as give promise for the future. The race of the Magyar bas achieved greatness, and would win back freedom once more. But we cannot refrain from ex • pressing our admiration at the indomitable energy, the undying veil, the perfect uprightnets, moderation, and humanity which you, the greatest of its leaders, have opposed to ell that is barbarous and rude—to all that is cowardly and cruel—to all the low cun ning and foul treachery of those who have called them selves the friends of order.' We, too, have earned that title, which these very men dare not deny to us. The assembled world has witnessed and borne testimony to the fact, though the jealous fears of the enemies of your country did not permit you, Sir, to be a spetator of, or a sharer in, the peaceful festival of nations lately held in this metropolis. And if we regret the lees your absence during that time, it is because it is rendered more evident that the welcome you now receive is a hearty English welcome; that the real friends of order are friends of liberty; and, though English tongues be not over garrulous, that true, big, swelling hearts beat in English breasts. " May the overruling Providence preserve you to see Hungary independent—glorious she is already—happy, and free. Henceforth may we be to each other as bro thers, as sworn friends; and till the time shall arrive— which we hope may not be far distant—when you shall once more be called to direct the councils of your coun try, may you and yours find in England a congenial home." Mr. MITCHELL, of Oxford-street, seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. Sir 800 ArdrN HALL then addressed the meeting, and was received with great cheering. He said he had attended the meeting, not because he thought be could add dignity or character to it, but because it was right and respectful that those who held the post which he did should come to learn the opinions and wishes of their representatives.—(Cheers.) There was one event in connexion with the arrival of Kossuth for which he was not prepared—he was not prepared to find a man who had lately been an exile himself, and who was now the President of what was called a republic—(Cheers)—adding the last insult to injury by refusing the unfortunate exile a free passage through his country towards our shores. — (Cheers.) That man talked of honour, and yet he kept Abd-el-Kader in prison—he talked of liberty, and yet he kept an army at Itome—(Cheers)—to put down liberty, and to keep up spiritual control end Jesuitical influence.—(Loud cheers.) It was that influence that guided both the Emperor of Austria and the President of France. Still he believed they , ought carefully to distinguish between the Govern ment and the people ; and as the election of President occurred next Nay, he hoped the people of France would show their President how much they repu diated his acts.—(Cheers.) He agreed with his col league in attributing the principal merit of Kossuth's safety to the Noble Secretary for Foreign Af fairs ; for he contended that, however much the great Prince who sheltered Kossuth might have been anxious to continue his shelter, he might not have been able to carry out his wishes, if he had not been so nobly backed by the Noble Lord, and afterwards by the Government of the United States. With respect to the doctrine of non-interven tion, he agreed with the principles which Kossuth had laid down. Let each nation settle their own affairs ; but if any nation interfered, he hoped the free nations of Europe and America would interpose to prevent such interference. Let them turn the Aus• trian and the French army out of the Roman States, and leave the people themselves to get quit of the ec clesiactical domination, which was a curse to the country, and let them establish that civil freedom for which they struggled, and in which they would have triumphed had it not been for the intervention of that man who, with liberty on his lips, put down liberty in the States of Rome.—(Cheers.) Mr. WILLIAM WILLIAMS, 111• P., also shortly ad- dressed the meeting in favour of Kossuth, andcom plained of the absence of the higher and the moneyed classes from these demonstrations, which, be said, was owing to the higher classes being in their hearts sympathisers with despotism, and to the capitalists holding bonds in the state loans of these Governments. The resolution was then agreed to unanimously. Mr. COOPER, solicitor, after some eulogistic re marks on Lord Palmerston, moved the following re solution :—" That the warmest thanks of this meeting are eminently due, and are hereby respectfully ten dered to the Right Hon. Lord Palmerston, her Ma jesty's principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, for his strenuous and high-minded efforts to procure the liberation of Louis Kossuth." Mr. BAKER, churcbwarden of St. Pancras, seconded the resolution, which was also carried. The following address to the Sultan was moved by Mr. BEALES, and seconded by Mr. SODEN, and carried unanimously TO MIS MAJESTY TUE SULTAN OF TURKEY. " Sire,—We, the inhabitants of the borough of Mary lebone in public meeting assembled, respectfully beg leave to convey to your Majesty the expression of our warm and heartfelt admiration for the noble spirit of humanity and inherent sentiment of liberty which prompted you to give freedom to the illustrious Kossuth. The world at large, or such of the world as can appre ciate the inestimable blessings which flow from constitu tional liberty, and who have shared in the happiness and prosperity which spring from free institutions, will ap preciate this noble act on the part of your Majesty as the brightest jewel in your Majesty's diadem, or in the language of our own immortal poet, As becoming the throned monarch better than his crown.' "Christian princes, the leading principle of whose creed is charity, will do well to learn from this example of your Majesty lessons of humanity and brotherly love, and coming as it does from a monarch with whom and whose country England has been long on terms of the most cordial amity, wo hail it as an additional tie to bind us still closer in the bonds of friendship and mu tual good understanding. Accept, Sire, the expression of our earnest prayers for the continued glory and pro greedy° greatness of Turkey. May your Majesty long continue to reign in the hearts of your subjects, and as you grow in years may you grow in the affection of your people, and the admiration of the world." Thanks were then voted to the two Members for the borough for their attendance, after which the meeting separated. KOSSUTH AND THE WORKING CLASS DEMONSTRATION: Last night the Central Demonstration Committee mat again at 10, Wellington• street, Strand, Mr. Thornton Hunt in the chair. A member of the committee stated that he had, at the request of the chairman, waited upon Kor.isuth that morning to know the result of the invitation of the committee to accept their address at a great public meeting on Monday next. Kossuth had received him with great cordiality, t xpressing his sorrow at not being able to give a definite au , :wi-T before, which, however, was owing to his nut knowing whether the Birmingham banquet might nut take place on Mon day, a point, however, which he had now ascertained ; and, therefore, he was in the hands of the committee, and would meet them on Monday. He was very glad that he had baen waited upon by a member of the committee, who would be better able to understand and convey his wishes and feelings- than another per son, to the committee. Ile placed himself in • the hands'of the committee and the people, hoping that tiauy would deal with 'gm honourably, nobly, and I fairly; and consider the position in which he stood in this country. He had promised the English Govern. in the erra crowd, f a 000 l windowwlodiw, i ment to keep hi mse lf free from party questions. He must be free an d would not be freedom-pressed ; and in order t o d o t h at, he asked for cntain indulgences i a n , h h e i c h h a n h c e l s o f u the c e c o e m i v n e t i t t h t e e e ad d H rne e s fsi w ;p o tu u hb l e ( l l icco g m o om t s o iittit t oe l - n i e e , with a fe w fri en d s , a l one being present. He would He plece appointed f or t h e presentation of the address as he thought b es t, and f u i n s g t b r e e r a bs s o t a r ni c i s c 0. t n l private not an n coulda r r speak er nu t s o et n the thri em a ciue s s se i i m r e di ln assembly theofrrh the m n The deputation kn ew th at t h e Austrian Government. was nc , friend of hi s a t any t i me, and the noble en thusiasr displayed by the English people since his arrival amongst them had not at all strengthened that friendship. The spies of Austria stood around him, a guard invisible on every side, and it would not be safe to trust himself in a crowd amongst them. He did not know exactly how he stood with the people of England, who had doubtless a certain policy as a people, with which policy be wished to connect him self—he wished for perfect freedom for his own per son that he might retire when parties advi.ed with their own particular notions; that be might say to such parties—This has no connexion with the purpose for which I come here ; you have your business, and I have mine. He concluded by repeating that he had pledged himself to the Government of this country not to interfere in its party questions, and was resolved to adhere to that pledge. He placed no value on his life ; but he valued before all things his honour. He did not fear death ; but wherever he might pilgrimage his honour must accompany him. Some conversation followed the delivery of the above report ; after which the following resolution was unanimously carried :—" That this committee pledges itself to resist any attempt which might have a tendency to give a sectional or party chant°• ter to the demonstration which it has been appointed to organise • and conduct on behalf of public bodies comprising men of all shades of opinion in English politics." It will be remembered that Kossuth, in agreeing to a public presentation of the address, declined to accept a public banquet. The committee, however, in compliance with the expressed desire of many of the bodies which they represent, have decided upon holding a public banquet, on the evening of Monday next, at Highbury Barn, in connexion with the demonstration, at which, of course, Kossuth is not expected, nor, in compliance with his implied wishes, will he be invited to attend. The Police Commissioners have been communicated with, with the view of directing their attention to the line of route laid down for the procession, which will form in Russell-equare, at eleven o'clock, on Monday, and proceed by Keppell-street, Store-street, and Tottenham Court-road, the Hampstead-road, High .street, Camden-town, and the Camden-road, to Copenhagen-house. KOSSUTH FUND. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Slll,-Wiii you oblige me by acquainting the public, through your columns, that an association is in pro cess of formation for the purpose of giving a practical bent to the sympathies expressed in the cause of Hun gary, assisting Kossuth in making known the true condition and prospects of Hungary and Easteru Europe, and of conveying to those countries a know ledge of the state and progress of public opinion in the west, by which their emancipation may be for warded and achieved. The names of the members of the committee, and the rules of the association, will be shortly published ; but in the meanwhile it is proposed to place at Kos suth's disposal the means of prosecuting the object which he has in view, by inviting those who were anxious to subscribe towards a personal testimonial (which he declines) to turn their contribution, large or small, into this channel. As temporary treasurer I shall be happy to receive such contributions, together with communications from those disposed to join the proposed association or to devote their exertions to forwarding its object. DUDLEY COUTTS STUART. MECHANICS' INS777'UTION SOIREE AT LINCOLN. The fifth annual meeting of the Midland Counties Association of Mechanics' and Literary Institutions took place on Tuesday at Lincoln, and was comme morated, after the transaction of the ordinary routine business, by a dinner and a soirée. The Right lion. the Earl of Yarborough presided on both occasions, and among those present were the Earl of Carlisle, the lion. W. Monson, the llon. A. L. Melville, the Mayor of Lincoln, the Rev. E. R. Larken (president elect), Mr. George Dawson, of Birmingham, Mr. G. Smallfield, of Leicester (secretary of the association), the Rev. Mr. Metcalf, Dr. Cammack, &c. The soirée, at which upwards of 500 persons were present, was held in the Corn.Exchlyge. The Noble CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, drew the attention of the meeting to the project set on foot by the committee of the Mechanics' Institute of Lincoln, who purpose to erect a new building of such an extent as to allow the formation of au ample library, class-rooms, a hall, and a museum. After expressing the hope that this project would be shortly realised, the Noble Lord called upon The Earl of CARLISLE, who, when the loud accla mations by which he was saluted had subsided, spoke as follows :—You have heard, ladies and gentlemen, that I have been named to move the first resolution, which I find runs thus—" That mechanics' institu tions, having for their object the advancement of the people in solid and useful education, deserve the support of all classes interested in the welfare of their common country." I find everything in the terms of that resolution to justify my recommending it to your cordial acceptance.—(Hear, hear.) But, in offering a few brief observatious in support of it., I feel that I ought to set out by making some sort of excuse to you for appearing here at all. It always seems to me upon such occasions as the present, that, except indeed in the neighbouring county of York, where I have got into the habit of doing as I am bid— (Laughter)—l have no business to meddle with the concerns of other people. But, after all, it is not such a long way across the Humber, and, on this oc casion, I have acted under the special command of my excellent neighbour, the Earl of Yarborough.— (Loud cheers.) I know that he has performed the same good turns for the towns, I believe, both of Hull and of Sheffield—(Hear)—and I should be sorry to appear wanting in reciprocating any such neigh bourly dispoAtien.—(Cheers ) I feel, over and above all those local considerations, that the cause of me chanics' institutions is such as to justify any co operation, no matter how inefficient the person, or however remote his dwelling.—(Loud cheers.) I must not forget, too, that I am a member of the Yorkshire Union of Mechanics' Institutions—an association which, we think in that county, has been of very con siderable use in fostering the success of the institutions which are scattered within its borders. We under stand that now for three or four years past the mid land districts of our fair England have been desirous of being put under a system of equal efficiency and energy, and I feel that I may appear here once more as the representative of my old Yorkshire friends, to assure you that they heartily wish you success — (Cheers)—and, if I know aright the feelings of those who have interested themselves in this cause, I am sure that they would hear of your complete success— even of your surpassing their own—with no other feeling but that of unalloyed satisfaction. And why should they not ? England is no longer under the Heptarchy. The Humber, to which I have alreadysthe world-wide and " the smooth and silvery Trent," as world-wide poet (Shakspere) calls it, no longer di vides hostile and jealous regions. We may, it is true, some of us have our favourite boasts of what is to be found amongst ourselves. The Lin colnshire and Yorkshire wolds may contend with each other as to which ar e th e best cultivated with out any great dang er o f being surpassed by anyother portion of the kingdom. Young Grimsby may flatter itself that it may one day beat old Ilull. and the palm of beauty may reasonably be contended for between the imposing masses of York Minster which brings and the aspiring pinnacles of object (u d Lincoln Cathedral.— ongselthilea r v t e already .h hin t ted, the l . one ; it is scarcely a national oneo:n*Tit a is c n o o s m a o local ten one—(Cheers)—for it aims a't it progress p of mankind and the advance of our species. Therefore, addressing you midlansiers, I say you are quite wel come to beat us of Yorkshire if ou can.—(Laughter.) If you fall s h or t o f us we shall be willing to teach ; and if you excel us, we shall be, I trust, docile to learn.—(Renewed laughter.) There is no place from which one ought not to be content to pick up what is laudible end good. Why, when we look at the aspect of the midnight heavens, we are not so much struck with them when it is only a single star that twinkles athwart the gloom, but we feel most the beauty and the brightness when all the boundless heavens are crowded with light, and when the stars, which may singly exceed each other in glory, collectively serve to show and set forth each other.—(Cheers.) And this, I feel that I do not vainly flatter myself, will be the spirit of mankind at large when the civilization of our race has attained its full developm en t . It may not be the idea of a city, like Athens, which absorbed into a single community an amount of poetry, of eloquence, 1 _ 44 _, _ a ~-~ Pioro J . a . 4 cf#l el' pose' so 4 ';) O t i o F0 0f., 0 0.1
