H. believed they never would forget them.—(Cheers.) He trusted his native air would reinvigorate that frame which General Pollock had worn out in their service, and that the chairman and his generous colleagues would not forget what they owed to that distinguished man.—(Cheers.) It was • only by protecting the cha racter, cherishing the fame,.and rewarding the service. of those who had acquitted themselves so wcrthily, that they could hope to manumit their power.—(Cheers.) fie concluded by proposing " the Health of the Chairman of the East India Company." While that chairman was Mr. Tucker he was quite certain they would alt feel that a more conseientieus, a more zealous, a more vigilant guardian of the interests entrusted to him could not exist.—(Cheers.) Allusion had been made to the pos sible difference that might arise in the conduct of Indian affair% He would only say, if there were quarrels, they were the quarrels of lovers, which only led to the re newal of love.—(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN briefly returned thanks, and proposed the health of Lord Hardinge, a nobleman alike distin guished for his oivil and military virtues; whose gal lantry in the field resembled that of a young soldier, a volunteer for the forlorn hope, with the prudence and judgment of a consummate general.—(Loud cheers.) This was nut all. Lord Hardinge, by his moderation, his prudence, and his sense of justice, had brought order and good government into that country which heretofore was distracted by anarchy and rebellion By his ju dicious arrangements, Lord Hardinge had endeavoured to make even his enemies happy and prosperous; he had already won their confidence and esteem, and he augured from his public services in India, if they should happily be continued, as many benefits from his civil administra lion as they had experienced from his military exploits. —(Loud cheers.) He gave—" The Health of Lord Har dinge, and the Governments of India." Drank with all the honours. Preece WALDEMAR then rose, and said—My Lords and gentlemen, I have received the permission of your chair man to propose a toast. I have very great pleasure in doing so. His name is particularly dear to my memory, as it was with the army under his command that I saw the first service and witnessed the well-known discipline and bravery of the Anglo-Indian army, displayed in so brilliant a manner on the banks of the Sutlej.--(Cbeers. I negd pot relate to you the exploits and enerits of that distMkalslhed, gallant, and successful leader, ?herd Gough, in that glorious cepapaign.

He was net competent to do justice to the miatury talents which had been displayed; but they all knew and felt that the bottle of the I Sut ej bad raised the character of the army, and rendered illustrious the names ef the leaders, Lord (sough, Lord Hardinge, and ho would add, Sir 11. Smith.—(Loud cheers.) The contest was with the most powereul native state we had ever to encounter in India—an army of fierce warriors with the advantage of European discipline, and with an artillery perhaps equal to our own; but the courage of our troops and the skill of our commanders prevailed, as he hoped they always would prevail.—(Loud cheers.) He begged to give " The Health of Sir 11. Smith, and the Arms of the Sutlej." Drank with loud cheers. Sir H. SMITH thanked the chairmen for having asso ciated his name with those of the pliant heroes, states. men, and distinguished commanders, Lord Harding. and Lord Gough. He wished to have the opportunity of declaring to them that never did a more erroneous idea go forth than that Lord Hardinge was surprised. There was no period of the campaign that admitted even the supposition of such a charge. There were two descriptions of surprise; the one political, the other military. As to the political surprise, from the day Lord Hardinge • landed, he was impressed with the idea that war must ensue. And what did he ? He marched every disposable soldier, British or native, towards the frontier, so much so that teeny of the old Indians thought he was denuding the lower provinces. Then as to the military surprise. Having concentrated an army, he waited the opportunity for the enemy to develop his movements. The enemy did commit an act o f sggrrssion, one of the boldest ever attempted in the world, by crossing the Sutlej in front of our army ; aw engagement took place, and victory was ours. The illus trious Prince now present had condescended to come among them not only in the bivouac, but lived among them as man should with man. The Prince wote a good sword ; he loved them and lived with them ; and whets they strove for victory he and his two aides-de-camp strove to join then:.—(Cheers.) Ile trusted this last war would ensure a prolonged peace; he had no doubt it would do so. But they must remember that India Wu conquered by the sword, and must be maintained by the sword. Although no one was more ready than he to acknowledge the zeal and ability of the °len service of their Indian empire, they could ti6t 'ted. much encourage the organisation and sirmiee o y__?! their army.—(Cheers.)

The CseIRMAN next proposed " The Civil and Mili. Lary Service of India." Mr. H. Mackenzie acknowledged the toast for the former, and Sir J. Lushington for the latter breach of the service. Several other toasts were drunk, after which the come pony broke up. The band of the Coldstream Guards was in attendance. and Mr. Harper, the celebrated trumpeter. Mr. Toole was the toastmaster, and most it*dle• charged his duties. On Saturday his Royal Highness paid visits to hia Excellency Chevalier Bunsen, to Westminster AWAY, St. Paul's, and the Bank of England. In the evening his Royal Highness and the nobl' of his suite, accompanied by his Excellency the Cheva4r.

BRUSSELS, jut.' 7.—The corn market was.put scan tily supplied this =mink , . There were only about 300 sacks, which were sold with slight variations from last market prices There is reason to be astonished at such a result, as there is everywhere a general tendency to decline. The diminution in the price of potatoes gives general satisfaction. The lowest price to-day was 9f. 50c. per 100 kilogrammes, in retail they s 11 at from 9 to 10 centimes per kilo gramme. It is difficult to form an idea of the magni ficent aspect of the harvest, which holds out the most promising results. In the environs of Brussels they have already commenced cutting the rye and barley ; corn, in general, of all kinds pro mises to • be infinitely superior to preceding years ithe litabblf, likewise. his never been stronger or finer. There hive been abundant crops of hay, and the vegetables have been more than usually abundant throughout Brabant, while thegeneral appearance of the potato fields has dispelled every fear. IJdtrxica. JULY 3.—Tlie more favoflrable state of the weather during the past week has prevented the antici pated rise in our market this day, and again contra dicted, as has often been the case, the supposition that the markets of Erding and Landshat were to regulate the prices of ours. There were 3,311 bushels of wheat and 2,362 of rye in the market. The demand was very considerable, not in the way of trade, but of consumption, for throughout the country, with the exception of Lower Bavaria. there is a great want of flour corn,especially of rye. The considerable and continued delivery, at reduced prices, on the part of the Government and the civil intitutions of Wurtemberg, has put a stop to the buying up in this department, and hence we have reason to hope that this will be the last market before the approaching harvest—that is to say, if this fine weather continues--= at which such high prices will be paid. ANTWERP, JOLT B.—The state of the market was more favourable to-day ; but very little business was transacted, in consequence of the want of means of trans port.—Brussels Papers, July 9. BARBAROUS MURDER NEAR HAREWOOD.—A most diabolical murder was committed at Weeton, near Hare wood, on Monday morning last, by a man named Francis Britton, his victim being his own child, a little girl about three years old, named Maria Britton. It appears the murderer had been in confinment as a lunatic for some weeks, and on Saturday evening last he return..d home. On the following Monday morning early a person named William Bright, who lodged in the house, and slept up stairs, heard a heavy tread in the room below, which was occupied by Britton, his wife, and child. Shortly after Bright heard a heavy stroke and a moan, and im mediately went down stairs, when he saw Britton hit the child three times with the poker. He held the poker in both hands, and bit the deceased on the forehead as she lay in bed. Bright immediately seized Britton, and handed him over to the custody of the constables. The poor child's head was awfully mangled, and blood and brains were scattered on the floor and walls of the cot tage. It appeared the wretch had taken the opportunity of committing the dreadful act during the temporary ab sence of his wile. An inquest was held on the body of the child on Wednesday last before Mr. Lee, coroner, when a verdict of " Wilful murder " against Francis Britton was returned. --Derbyshire Courier. COTTON MANUFACTURES IN MEXICO.The Giorruili lode Llo.td Austtiaeo states, that the cotton trade of Mexico is increasing in importance every day. There exist at present, in the province of Mexico, twelve spin- . ning factories, with 30,156 spindles in full operation ; in that of Pueblo twenty-one, with 35,672 spindles in ope ration, and 12,240 in course of construction ; in that of Vera Cruz seven, with 17,860 in operation, and 5,200 in course of construction ; in that of Guadulajara five, with 11 312 in operation, ar.d 6.500 in course of construction ; in that of Queretaro two, with 7,620 ; in that of Du ►ang( fur, with 6 520 ; in that of Guaninato one, with 1,200; and in that of Sonora one, with 1 ; 000; in all, 23,91tiraincr.hteteries- witla-I&N.2fitl.s^ ; "xl , te uatiretin' surnption of cotton (c( ntinues our Italian contemporary), is at present 39,7551 h., and it will increase to 48.6221 n , when all the projected spindles are constructed ,• the daily production of yarn now amounts to 35,780. of the value of 39,358 reals. The number of spinning web lishments in operation amounts to 8.753, employing al together 17,000 persons. The annual consumptlen amounts to 14,586,6661 b., and as the indigen.m• pro duction only amounts to 50,000 quintals, it follows that there is a deficiency of about 95 666 quintals. In order partly to cover this deficiency the importation of 60,000 ' quintals bas been allowed at a duty of six reals per quintal. The carriage from Vera Cruz to Mexico—a distance of about 94 leagues, which is traversed by muleteers (carrieros) in 18 to 20 days—is from 18 to 22 reels per load of four animals and upwards.

Also that many persons in the trade who had hitherto withheld their i ns titution. The trea surer's account was also read, support were now as anxious to become members of th e which being quite satisfactor y , Mr. Dickinson moved, " That the po rt now real be adopte d, and p rinted 'or circulation Mr. Wyke second• d the resolution. which was put, and carried unanimously. Mr. Deacon and Mr. Mallalue, two of the retiritn. direc tors, were then re-elected, and Mr. J. Shenton and Mr. Dewsbury were elected directors in the stead of the other two who retired, and atter the other business of the meeting was concluded, the usual vote of thanks was given to the chairman, and also to the directors ..nsl auditors for their respective active and effi cient services. Mr Deacon then rose and said he thought the meeting ought not to separate without mentioning the services rendered by NIL Clarke, the secretary. He should therefore move, " That the best thanks of the meeting be given to the secretary, and that the like gra.uity which was given to him last year be offered to him this, for his great exertions in the be half of the institution." This resolution was seconded by Mr. Tattersall, and carried unanimously. The chair man then said the business of the meeting was now concluded. He hoped that every member would strife to add to the numbers of the institution, as they must be convinced of its favourable results. AMERICAN PROVISIONS.—The American line of packet-ship Switzerland, arrived in the London Docks from New York, has brought 11, 310 bushels of wheat 4,342 bushels of oats, 68 barrels of pork, 16 packages of hams and tongue ' ,76 hogsheads and 101 boxes of bacon, 804 packages of lard, 1,211 barrels of flour, 150 barrels and 540 boxes of bread and biscuits, several packages of 'beef and other articles, the produce of the United States of America. This is another instance illustrative of the fact, that the American line of packet passenger ships trading to and from New York, bring large quantities *of grain as part of their cargoes at the present time, in preference to the usual description of Ameri can merchandise, which had hitherto formed :he greater proportion of the %bole. A peculiar description of meat, which is brought from the United Stites in large quantities, especially at the port of Liverpool, has lately been the subject of notice, in consequence of its detention by the officers of the revenue for duty. The article alluded to is pork legs, being the leg of the animal, dry salted, in some inst.nces, and in others imported in pickle, in wet salt or brine, which were considered by the officers o' the revenue to be liable to the duty as hams, instead of, as required by the importers, legs of pork, salted, and free of duty, and the matter having been taken into commonooin a or simply prepdefinitionaretdh e state, h of f m the word or leg fit especial consideration, it has been decided by the autho rii of eft t ham , h.animal, Wtahigf ref e rencei but ng n t the joi n t exa c tlyjntth i for immediate , use, and to the facilities at present a fforded for the introduction of all kinds of food, that these legs of pork from America, if simply salted, and thereby coming under the head of legs of pork salted, . as set forth in the tariff, and not smoked or dried in the ma nner of hams, commonly so called, are to be admitted I into consumption free of duty. DIABOLICAL Am—An old and respectable corre spondent, writing from the Carse of Gowrie, says— •• Whole fields of potatoes have been destroyed in various parts of Scotland ; and three men are now in Glasgow, who have confessed that they were bribed by certain parties (large speculators in grain) to sprinkh• these fields with water, containing a strong solution of sul phurio ac id." Had we not the fullest confidence in our correspondent we should have refused insertion to this statement ; but knowing his veracity we do not hold ourselves free to suppress such a fact, however painful it is to us as men and Christians to see the love of money urging individuals to the commission of such a diabolical Why Afessaiger. CITY OLLONDON ELECTION. A crowded meeting of electors and non-electors o the city of London assembled on Saturday evening, at Cogers' Hall, to meet the Liberal candidates new in the field for the representation of the City in Parliament, and to hear them promulgate their political opinins. " The Grand" occupied the . chair. Baron Rothschild was the first of the candidates who entered the room, and was received - with cheers and clappinzof hued`, which lasted for several minutes. Mr. Pattison next entered, and was hailed with a burst of cheering I aid . and long continued, a m a nifestation which was ttko warmly accorded to Sir George Larpent, the third of the Liberal candidates who entered the loom. Tiie chairman opened the business by stating that on the two preceding Saturday evenings he bad introduced Mr. Alderman Johnson and Mr. Payne to the Hall as can didates for the representation of the City in Parliament. He now successively introduced Mr. Pattison, M.P., as the long and well-tried friend of the public, and of Li beral principles; Raman R.Ahschild, in whose person, as a member of the Hebrew persuasion, the cause of civil and religious liberty . was 'anew to be tested; and Sir G. Larpent, Bart., who had been before in Parliament, and whom he hoped to see there again Gil one of the Liberal representatives for the city of. Leaden. The endow ment of the Catholic Church was made the question ol die night for testing the candidates, and was the debate able point between their supporters on the one side, and the opponents of the scheme on the other. Mr. Rarrtaost expressed his gratitude for the very kind reception he had met with, and referred to his past Parliamentary conduct as the best exposition he could offer to the meeting o f his political principles. He cursorily glanced at his votes in favour of every measure calculated for the public good; and having pledged him sell, should they return him to Parliament, to pursue a like liberal course, he conclilded with an expression of hope that the meeting would do their best, not for him self alone, but fbr Lorttllcihn Russell (who deserved well at their hands; Mettle persevering friend of civil and religions liberty, and - for whose absence he apolo gised); for Baron Rothschild, who was well known for his public and private worth to the citizens of London; and for Sir George Larpent, Bart., as a consistent and warm advocate of public rights. Baron ROTHSCHILD pledged himself, should he be re turned, to do everything in his power to advance the public good, by his votes in Parliament. lie had been assailed in anonymous letters by the opponents of liberal principles and religious freedom, for presenting himself as a candidate for the suffrages of the citizens of Lon don; but he was resolved to try the question of religious right in his person. Baron Rothschild also stated that he had been charged, in letters which he received, with buying up the corn of the country, to aggravate the scarcity, and thus make a profit ; but he pledged his solemn honour that neither himself, nor the firm with which he had the honour to be connected, had ever purchased a quarter of corn, except for their horses. — (Hear, and cheers.) Sir GEOROZ LASPENT- next presented himself, and was warmly applauded. He appealed to his past public conduct as the best guarantee hV could give in testimony of his attachment to liberal and just principles, and pledged himself, if returned to Parliament, to persevere in support of a liberal and enlightened course of policy. The candidates expressed themselves opposed to fur ther church endowments, not from any prejudice against any denomination . of - Christians , but on principle. The meeting was then addressed by Mr. M.P. Haines. and Mr. Falvey, in speeches loudly applauded for their advocacy of civil and religious liberty, and of themerits of the Liberal oandidides I Also by Mr. Tanner, a Liberal, and Mr. Berry and Mr. Jones, opponents of Catholic Church endowment. And, On the motion of Mr. LE% seconded by Mr. TANNER, a resolution was passed to support Lord John Russell, Mr. Pattison , Baron Rothsch il d , and Sir George Larpent, as the Liberal candidates for the representation of the City.

His Royal Highness is'not Merely distinguished fir his mili tary ardour; he has claims to our notice which rest on other grounds—a love of science, and the pursuit of that knowledge which ennobles the highest rank, and gives grace and ornament to a throne itself.—(Cheers.) Ile has travereed the plains of India, ascended the • rugged fastnesses of Nepaul, and penetrated through the Himalaya to the frontiers of China.—(Cheers.) Not more on account of that noble spirit which led him to the field, and engaged him in its conflicts, than for his devotion to literature and science, do I now with confi dence and pleasure propose to you the health of his Royal Highness Prince Waldemar of Prussia. The toast having been drunk with all the honours, The Prince WAMENAS spoke as follows:—My. Lords and Gentlemen, little acquainted as ham with the Eng lish language, lam sorry to say that I reel 'myself ily able to express in a sew short words my sentiment liratitude for the highly flattering speech of your Chit man, the distinguished manner in which_l_htv r f oi lgetti lon Court of orders of the l • . Dirc-ctors.—(Cheers.) I cannot refrain from mentioning, ~n this very proud occasion for me, how much I was Lou pleased and flattered — my 'l s s y hted in tr nd v i o a u uthyisarli by the very valuable present I re ceived of two Seikh guns, captured in my presence by the • - uuring tue valu able commemoration to me 151 to my (Cheers.) t o thef wi ll remain ar o f f o r t e h v e e r B a u tl ri highly and distinction shown to me in India as well as in c u h n e s e u r r s p . a ) ss T e h d is hr p a r v e e s r e y n , But, gentlemen, proud as I am of the marks of esteem England, I am far from attributing them to m) self alone —every one of my countrymen, I know, is well and kindly received in England, and I consider this as a proof that the old ties of friendship and alliance which so long, and even under very difficult circumstances, have united England and Prussia are still the same.—(Cheers.) Muy these ties last long—(Cheers)--may they last for ever, for the benefit and strength of both nations. The CRAIRMAN—WhiIe we pay our tribute of respect to the illustrious Prince who has honoured us with his presence on this occasion, we must not forget the absent. His Sovereign left a deep impression on the people of this country. The patriot King of Prussia, by his con descension, his gracious bearing, his numerous and most munificent charities, entitled himself to the high con sideration of all who had observed his career. We all if us know his gracious and princely conduct. He is now gracing a throne where be is endeavouring to en• graft upon free institutions the welfare of his people. I hope and trust that his patriotic labours will be success ful, and that theJ► will endear him still more to the affec tions of his loyal and devoted subjects. I give you " The health of the patriot King of Prussia." Drunk with all tho honours. His Excellency Chevalier BUNSEN, in acknowledging the toast, said—" Mr. Chairman, my Lords, and gen tlemen,—l am proud and thankful that it falls to my lot on such an occasion as this to return thanks, as the re presentative of the King of Prussia i n thi s coun t r y, f or the cordiality with which his Majesty's health has been proposed and received. I am sure it will afford his Majesty . particular sati s f ac ti on t o l earn t h at hi s ill us . rec h e r iv il e l d ia h nt im and hereil illustr ious mous cousin has this day din e d w i t h t h e C our t o f Di rectors of the Hon. East India C om p an y i n th e m idst of so o io n u g s st a ) ll, o a u ss w em it b h ly all esteem and affection which gree t e d hi m i n B r itish India; ;that the you marks e have f and that on the same occasion you have remembered with so much warmth the sovereign head of his house and country, and alluded to the intimate relations exist ing between the two countries and nations. The stay of Prince Waldemar in India, and tho reports ho sent and brought home, have indeed contributed to increase that interest, and to deepen those sympathies, with which the King and the natives of Prussia look upon the British empire, in the East. But that interest and those sym pathies existed before. How, indeed, could it be other wise, when we see how much strength, and power, and influence flows from that empire to England—to those with whoikwe'are so intimately connected—who have been our best allies in the struggle for our independence and that of Europe—with whom we have fought our last battle p t ild, gained our most decisive victory on the field of Waterloo ? But, besides, ask what Government, what monarch can overlook the immense importance of that empire which all Powers, whether they see it with the eyes of friends, or of rivals, or of enemies, must look upon with admiration ? The British empire in Igdia is, according to my conviction, the prodigy of modern his tory ; it is the pride of England ; and, let me add, it is the glory of the middle classes of England--of that not only numerous and wealthy, but also enlightened, peace and justice-loving, loyal, and liberal class of the popu lation on which, in our age, the strength of all modern states must principally rest.—(Cheers.) Other empires, in other timer, have been founded by mighty or ad venturous chieftains, or by military orders and corpo rations, and they have, sooner or later, been lost by the death of the conqueror, or by the degeneracy or tyranny Of the military aristocracy. But here you have an em pire, founded by merchants, formed and governed by citizen subjects of the Crown of Great Britain, and within less than a century grown up to a mighty empire of more than a hundred millions—an empire tor which your nobles have fought, and bled, and died, and to which many of your most distinguished statesmen and judges have dedicated their lives—an empire which has nurtured, and is still nurturing, the heroes of the a d ge, from the Duke of Wellington down to ou r days, l an in which illustrious statesmen find an a m p le and g l or ious field for developing their talents and as he their these country.—(Cheers.) It was with such v that the King, my master, s oon a fter he had ascended the throne, sent a distinguished o ff icer of his army to British India, there to improve his knowledge and . en rich his experience — C a p tain whose report, since published here and in Germany, .does equa l h onou r himself and to the country he visited.—(Ch eers .) th e refore na t u ral that the same monarch, some years later, when a young prince of his house wished to travel, in order to becomeacquainted with what foreign countries might offer to him most interesting and , important, favoured so decidedly the wish of that 1 rince to vi s it your Indian empire. This P rince was too young to have seen war himself, for he was born after the happy donelusion of the great struggle of his h ouse an d nat ion, in which his valiant father, Prince William of Prussia, 'had fought with so much glory.—(Cheers.) But the ,Prince had been brought up in all the arts and sciences of peace; he had received that liberal and scientific education which in our times is most necessary for princes, and most conducive to their own individual happiness.—(Cheers.) Having been thus nurtured in all those branches of literature and .knowledge which secure and adorn peace and civilisation he wished to see that mi g h ty an d almost fabulous ;empire. He weiq to India ; an d w h at did he see there?He saw a firin 1-uid just . civil administration, bent upon the improve ment of that country and nation which are entrusted to your c. ! re. lie saw admirable and incortuptitde cont.; f, of justice established in a country which sas no hist.,. meal record of having ever possessed impartial distri butive justice, One and the same for the rich and the poor, the mighty and the friendless and helpless. Ile knew by renutation )our Maleolnis, and Sir Joneses, and Colebrookes, and ha was happy to hod that their successors in office were worthily emulating their zeal and their glory. He knew your Cornwal;is, and he found Hardinge.—(Cheers.) With equ admi ration the Prince saw your Political Agents—that illus trious body of men of whom Canning is reported to have said (and I am sure justly), that he considered it the first of all diplomatic bodies in the world, fur their skill, and character, and accomplishments.—(Cheers.) There, too, he found worthy successors to Mountatuart Elphin stone and his contemporaries. In all these branches of civil administration, gentlemen, the Prince saw the real secret of your strength—it is keeping your word, and dealing with fairness and justice. I have heard from very good authority that lately the Court of Directors received from a very high quarter an application to know by what means you had s ucceeded in conciliating to yourselves the good-will and even the affections of millions of your Mohammedan subjects in India. Well, Sir, I think the answer is before the world; you have respected their religion, their l aws , an d th e ir babas; you have respected the sanctuaries of the temple and of the house. Let others do likewise: The Prince was urther pleased to see that literature and science were not forgotten by the conquerors and rulers of the empire. He perceived that the institutions founded by Sir William Jones and Colebrooke had continued to flourish under Mackenzie and Prinsep. And here it is my pleasing duty to express my gratification in having seen how lately this Court of Directors when requested to subscribe for a number of copies of an edition of the Vedas, the sacred records of the Hindoos, undertaken by a distinguished young seholar of Germany, nobly resolved, with the strenuous support and generous encouragement of that illustrious friend and patron of literature, the highly accomplished President of the Board of Control, to charge that same scholar to gb-ik to the world, under their sanction and at their expense, that meat important book, th e p u bli ca tion of which is so anxiou,ly looked for by the whole - literary world. And then, gentleme n , h e saw your arm i es; h e li ve d w i t h its officers. What shall I say he felt about this army, when one who came to India with avowedly hostile feel ings, and has since written a book containing sev. re cen sures upon some parts of the Indian administration (Count Warren), cannot help saying that there was no more high-spirited army in the world, and there was no more hminded and kind hearted and hospitable body or officers, than that of your Indian arruy?—(Cheers.) And now, I ask you, after the Prince had, during a stay of eighteen months, seen all this, and lived with your army, and messed with its officers, how could he resist to offer bienself to serve as a volunteer and fight with his brave friends and companions in a war undertaken to repel barbarous invasion, and to protect and advance the common and sacred cause of civil and religious liberty. ? —(Cheers.) He did so ; he won your admiration t he received the flattering marks of her Majesty's approba tion ; and he is now come to this country to express his thanks, and to see again some of the heroes he had the opportunity of knowing and admiring in India (Cheers.) The King will be delighted, therefore, to hear how kindly ho has been received by you on this occa sion, and I beg to thank you again for the expression of your regard and your affection to himself.—(Cheers.) The CIJAIRMAN—I am sure we have all been highly delighted by the speeches we have just heard, so honour able to the illustrious Prince and his Excellency the Minister of Prussia.—(Cheers.) It is particularly grati. fying to us to receive such testimony both in favour of the principles by which this country is governed and our suocessful administratiou of that great empire we hold in the East.—(Cheers.) Their testimony is impartial, 'nd we should not have had it if it were not just.— (Cheers.) The next toast I have to propose is the British Navy." We have a nobleman who presides over that branch of our service well known to the Court of ])i- rectors.—(Cheers : ) He has honourably served his country, - in various capacities, and in none r4rot soccessfully ‘ or,, honourably than in India.—(Loud eheers. ~,That noble service, the navy, is nuw confided to his care, and I am confident from what we know of his character he will do e es ch a a u rg d e co .—( asti Chei u r r s. b ) uiw t h i s t . h a e r r eol ni n ti i on h. s e . f f ti or ll ti j f t y lst t i h c e e ir to ci t t h i deep., w are iinisai lible&npregnable, our honotf?;itil4t eraeternterdsts a cure among" tlfe naV the worl d L oud cheer).

The CHAIRMAN: next gave " The Army," which was responded to briefly, but most appropriately, by Sir CHARLES DALRIAC. The CHAIRMAN next proposed the health of " Lord J. Russell and her Majesty's Ministers." The adminis tration of a mighty empire was in ordinary circum stances a sacred and important trust, far beyond the strength of most men; but Lord J. Russell, with the chivalry of his noble house, had accepted it surrounded by unusual difficulties, aggravated by a natural calamity. "'That cloud which late o'er pale Britannia hung" he hoped was now dispelled, and that sunshine would gleam over our fields and gladden the hearts of our people. lie earnestly wished the Noble Lord and his colleagues would succeed in restoring prosperity to this great nation.—(Loud cheers). The toast was drunk with much cordiality. Lord J. RUSSELL, in acknowledging the compliment, said—l urn happy to have this opportunity of coming here, in the first place to pay my respects to the leaders and governors of an empire, which, as it has been truly said by my excellent friend the Minister of the Court of Prussia, is, I belive. unparalleled in the history of the world—an empire of Nettich the first beginnings are most extraordinary and appear like heroic or fabulous times—an empire which has been cemented by wisdom and justice in later times; and which we have the hap piness to know, from a very recent experience, should it be attacked by unprovoked, sudden, and for midable aggression, will be defended by as much intelligence in command and as much bravery in the soldier as ever it was the happiness of any empire to command.—(Loud cheers.) I cannot fail to say this —seeing on my right hand one of the most distinguished of those warriors who have lately proved to India and to the world that however ancient empires may have dege nerated from the luxury and effeminacy of the conquerors themselves, our conquests aro still maintained by the same valour, the same stedfast determination, which won the first miles of territory in India.—(Cheers.) I come, likewise, Sir, to pay my tribute of respect and honour to that illustrious Prince who sits on your right band, whose object it has been not to make a holiday tour, not to sati.fy himself with the shows and amusements of Italy, or the vestiges of ancient power; but who has visited in India a living dominion—(Cheers) —who has searched the records of literature and science, and, when the trumpet of war sounded in his ears hastened to the camp, and showed himself among the first and most gal hint of those who stood on those bloody fields.—(Cheers.) You, Sir, havo done honour to my colleagues and my self in saying words of praise and encouragement with_ respect to the part we have to bear in the g overnment this great empire; and I am happy to have this o ,_a say.nr, every other occasion, which presents itself to . tae, of t: ou hat o that though we have had to stem the Li" , although a observed, of a great natural calamity . the lat e r history of famine, unprecedented, I believe, in nearly overwhelmed Europe, threatened, assaulted although, therefore, i s ,. a part of the United Kingd from the visitations have had great difficulties to meet of Proviience and the vicissitudes of this seasons, these difficulties have not been aggravated by any undue, any party, any factious opposition from those with whc i m I have long differed in Ewlitics—(Cheers) — but on the con trary, allowing o f course for honest difference of opi nion_allowing for the heat which discussion sometimes crews, we have been allowed freely and fairly to apply to these calamities such remedies its we considered the most fitting for the emergency.—(Loud cheers.)
