BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of . Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., '1 he essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con equences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, r.nd who are conscious of having hazarded the herlth, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are fineiples of personal management which cannot be violated with cut incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc ceed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and Its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

Providence bad been seen in all their acts, in all their heroism ; and he was proud to say that in almost every one of those short and soldier-like letters coming from General Havelock the first power he alluded to was the Almighty, as gaining he victory. So long as we trusted in the Almighty hand—so long as we did everything in our power to promulgate Christianity throughout idolatrous lands, if we only prayed an d supplicated, if we only looked for aid from on high, the Lord would defend us. It was under His power that the little bands in India bad gone forth to fight ; they had been maintained by that power, and by it he believed the enemies of England would yet be subjugated. Such was his belief—such, be felt Convinced, must be the belief also of those who had hitherto been enab'ed to withstand such mul titudes. Those treacherous mutineers were met. who had been trained in our own service—men who had proved themselves good soldiers in many a fight ; and yet when they had turned against us— when they had spurned the hand that cherished them, and which had brought Chrisianit.y and i civilisation among them—there httd been a powei extended to save us, and to show to the world thlt 1 England was destined to go forth' and conquer b.) 1 the exhibition of the cross. _ i Mr. W. F. KNATCHBULIy M.P., in alluding to ' the same subject, speaking of the murders and atro cities committed in India, said he trusted that these dreadful butcheries would speedily meet with the chastisement they deserved, and that the troops now arriving in India would inflict just vengeance both upon the instivltors and perpetrators of the murders which had disgraced that lan•l. He felt confident that the generalship of Sir ColinZamp- Ee% aide'l an ho was by thorn Generals and th* small bands that hitherto had kept their ground against thousands,, would be able in a short time to put an end to that mutiny, and so bring peace and prosperity again into the country. He fully con curred in everything that bad been said by his hon. colleague on this subj , -ct, and they might rely upon his giving his most earnest consideration to ev-ry thing that was brought forward bearing upon it. LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 30, 1857. OPINIONS OF 111.P.s ON THE INDIAN MUTINIES. MR. LABOUCHERE. On Monday last, at a meeting at Taunton, pre sided over by Mr. Kinglake, M.P., the author of E6then. Mr. LABOU CHERB, i n responding to the toast of " The members for the borough of Taunton," spoke at some length upon the subject of the day— the Indian mutiny. It was far from his intention to enter into any discussion of the causes of that mutiny; but he could not help saying —and he was persuaded that he was not speaking his own senti ments only, but those of every man who heard him, when he said—it was an honourable distinction of the times in which they lived, that whatever party differences might exietmong them, and whatever divisions there were in England upon questions which arose suddenly among them,- in the face of any great public difficulty and danger they were united as one man. (Cheers.) Englishmen pre sented their closed ranks on all great occasions of national peril, and whether it came upon them in the form of a foreign aggression or in the shape of this great Indian calamity, they assumed the ap penance of a noble and united phalanx. (Cheers.) Those events had excited in that town not only the interest they could not but all feel as Englishmen, but also a painful anxiety among many families there who had been grievous sufferers by the calamity ; and the horrors of it had been brought home to their bosoms by the accounts of the un paralleled sufferings of their countrymen and countrywomen, which they bad received from time to time. He begged them to b e li eve t h at t h e mem bers of hi.r Jkletietes , Government were viuteervur • -4, nag to the best of their ability to discharge the great duty which devolved upon them at .this mo mentous crisis. At present it was their determi nation boldly' to confront the danger, and to assert the law and authority of British rule in that country. (Cheers.) They were all aware under what circumstances the Indian insurrection took place. Undoubtedly it took them by surprise ; and for some time our countrymeu—a mere hand ful of men —were left to enter upon one of the most tremendous struggles which we had ever had to encounter. The first assistance came from Englishmen, but not from England. There were, fortunately, in parts of the world nearer India than England the means ofsending help to our countrymen in India. It so happened that a large expedition was going to China under Lord Elgin, and Lord' Elgin, with a promptitude and energy whicli-did him infinite credit, without waiting orders from. England, as soon as he heard of the state of mat- - ters in India, made the best of his way with the troops to the scene of the disorder. .(Cheers.) He (Mr. Labouchere) might also say, connected as he was with the colonies, that this country was under a deep debt of gratitude to the Governers . of Ceylon, the Mauritius, and the Cape, for the timely suc cour and assistance, afforded by them. His friend, the Governor of Ceylon, surrounded by a large body of natives, at once despatched almost every European soldier he had iu Ceylon in order to lend the most timely aid to the Governor of Bengal ; and in like manner the Governor of the Mauritius sent off two regiments, the arrival of which in In dia he verily believed had the effect of preserving the peace in the district where they landed ; while the Governor of the Cape supplied a much larger force. Most fortunately, at the tinie when those events happened in India, the danger of a great Kafir war was no longer imminent ; Sir G. Grey was therefore enabled to send off four regiments to India, and he (Mr. Labouchere) hoped he would be able to contribute still further forces. He thought the conduct of the English colonists at the Cape was beyond all praise, coming ferward and volun teer:ng as they had done to perform garrison duty, besides contributing money, to send the earliest and greatest amount of assistance at a time when no soldiers had yet arrived from England. (Cheers.) That fearful interval of apprehension and anxiety, he trusted, was now at an end, because they had the assurance that thousands of English troops would have, ere that time, been landed on the soil of India ; and he hoped that henceforward the ti '- ings they might receive from India would be those of the gradual re-establishment of peace and order in that great country. (Cheers.) It was not for him to presume to predict the result. _Diet was yet in the hands of Providence alone. Every hour might bring them accounts from the scene of ac . ion that the expecte• ions which they had reason to form had been realised. But he felt confident that the Government of this country would not fail Id A ct up to their fearful responsinnittes, whim - meg oe lieved were not lessened, but increased, by the man ner in which they (the Government) had been sup ported by all parties in the country. He acknow ledged that it was the duty of the Government not only to put down this rebellion and to esta blish Jaw and order, but to look d ose l y i nto the causes by which it has been produced, and to ex amine narrowly the circumstances of the Indian Government, not only in its military organisation, Ludt the civil administration of the affairs of that country. (Cheers.) That duty, he thought, the Government were prepared to undertake, and nothing, he trusted, would be wanting on their part to the fulfilment of it, in the full confidence that they will be supported by the country. (Cheers.) he had rece i ved from the town on every occasion of his having. presented himself. He felt pleased that, m e eti ng as - th e y did for a philanthropic object, th e gloom vhioh had overspread the face of th e country, in . consequence , of re cent disast rous events appeared to be about to dis perse. It was a matt& of pleasure and also of con gratulation that at length those clouds which had obscured the horizon smined gradually to brighten, and he trusted would soon disperse. (Cheers.) They must congratulate themselves that while those clouds still hung over them, and while the assist ance of all right-minded and. good-feeling men throughout the land was required, the borough of Reading- was not behind band- (Cheers.) . They had seen the magnificent and truly philanthropic smbscription from this borough, which added - to the credit it had a l readf maintained. He sincerely hoped that we had heard the worst of the news which was to come upon us from the far-distant re gions of India. (Hear.) He thought that it must be a subject of pride and congratulation, in the midst of th e m i -foi tunes that had fallen upon us, to consider th a t those very misfortunes h a d g i ven rise to displ ays of English courage, energy, effort, and p erseverance which must i mpress the nations of th e world with the conv i c ti on th a t the prestige of England bad in no way diminished. (Cheers.) W e had seen some instances in India nut merely of military glory, but instances of courage, energy, and of perseverance upon the part of that handful of Europeans who remained in that mighty empire without extraneous applause that must have sty uck all Europe with admiration. (Applause.) It was a subject of the deepest congratulation—he would say of thankfulness also, that the great event which had lately talc. 9f plo k cs 'Nisi the datitruction of - the-ittififriiharof those miscreants that polse:Sedi it, and the utter annihilation of the shambles in I which those batch() aof humanity revelled. (Ap plause.) It was a subject of congratulation to think that that had been achieved '&ore the arrival of one of the 40,000 bayonets despatched from this country across the seas to their assistance. He would say that the effort which seat across those 40,000 men within the short space of a few weeks after the news arrived, which found this country disarmed and in its peaceful garb, when this country had reduced its war establishment upon the proper cry of the people, in which cry the town of Reading and himsel took part—he would say that when taxa tion was reduced and the coui.try was disarmed, the effort made by the Government of the country in sending out the enormous force it did under such circumstances, and at such a time, across the wide ocean to vindicate the rights and honour of this country was without parallel in the history of Eng land. (Applause.) The Solicitor -General after wards dilated upon topics which were only of local interest. iTHE EARL OF HARROWBY. At the annual dinner of the Sandon and Mar ston Agricultural Society, at &Loden, on Wednes day, the Right Hoy. the Earl of Harrowby, in pro posing " The Health of the Army and Navy," spoke as follows :—I cannot mention the army without reverting to what our soldiers have been and ate undergoing in India ; I cannot mention the name of the army without thinking of that distant land where our brave soldiers are undergoing all the horrors of war, aggravated by an unhealthy climate, and the treachery —I do not know whetaer t ) say the treachery of friends or of eeemies. The accounts of this mutiny have reminded me" of the expression of the Psalmist— "lf it had been mine enemy that had done this I could have borne it." If the calamity had come upon us from some foreign foe it would have been bad enough, but coming from our own subjects, our - old familiar friends, it is doubly bard to bear. Gentlemen, you know what _difficulties our army has had to encounter. Not only have our country men had to meet danger upon the open field, where man meets man in honourable fight, regulated by the common princip'es of warfare, but it has met them is their own tents, around their own mess tables, amongst their own people, who had in many cases deceived them by assurances of friendship and fidelity. They were unprepared to meet the dm -1 ger ; they were scattered up and down in hundreds and fifties ; they were surpri.ed, and had no time to organise a plan of defence; they have met an , enemy at every step, and found foes where they ex pected to find friends. Wel, gentlemen, how have our countrymen behaved under these circum stances ? Their con , luot has rendered them objects of affection and esteem to the 'r countrymen, and has elicit el admiration nd applause even from the moil jealous of our nsi . I. "'" br ' t l4.—a t° t ' Laid in agau 4..-n e s t;at the o es sight the go en joyed was to s..e a good man struggling with ad at vers ty. Gentlemen, lam quite sure that the his tory of the world has furnished no nobler spectacle for the admiration of either gods or men than that exhibited by our gallant countrymen in India. Taken by surprise, attacked by overwhelming numbers, and without provisions or adequate me ins of defence, they have yet manfully held their own, waiting for succour to arrive. That succour, gentlemen, I hope is nigh, and the worst is past. Our few troops were at a diAance of half the world d from succour ; th ey were taken at t h e mos t un heal by season of the year ; they were totally un prepared fo r the danger. We had guarded against danger f rom outward foes, but n ot against trea chery withi n ; an d when the native troops prove d t unfaithf u l we were almost W ithout Euro pean t roops to fall back uP° " ' B u t even under diffi cu l t i es like those our men h ave been able t o bold their own. (Cheers.) But for the news of th e l ast two days we could not ha v e said more than thi s ; b ut now we may P aY th a t n ot on ly have th e y b een able to hold the i r own , b u t th ey have re -conquered the ancient capital of India. (Loud cheers.) G entlemen, I think now our anxie ties with regar d to India m ay be raid to be almost at an end. A continuous stream o f B r iti s h t roops has for s ome ti me been lauding upon th e s h ores o f India ; and I am quite sure the next ma il w ill b r i ng us flows of t roops pouring in from all the different presidencies, f rom Calcutta, B om b a y, and Madras, and up to th e Indus, sufficient to re-establish every where the supremacy of Brita i n . L e t us no t f orge t, in the feelin gs w hi ch natura ll y ar i se at the success ful terminati on o f the sr,rugg l ) our own shortcom ings. Very r ecen tl y, when th e w ar with Ru ss i a broke out, and we were b roug ht into contest with the most pow er f u l military nation in Europe, we were taken unp re p ared. W e then swore by all the gods that we never would be taken in that way again. But as soon as the war was over what was the course we pursue; ? "Get rid of the income tax—cut down the army—cut down the navy," was the cry ; and in compliance with that demand the- Government did reduce the army and navy until, wben this mutiny broke out, we were entirely un prepared for it, and had hardly a soldier in the c ountry. Enough of this, gentlemen ; let us not do so againn e e is ; let us in future not only be prepared past, gentlem n, I hope that to make sacrifices in the face of danger, but when the dg lessons from the Crimea and from India will not be thrown a . away upon us, and that we shall not be found tion of the present mutiny from the quesun prepared in future. It is difficult to separate the considera tion of the future government of India. It is, of course, impossible at this moment to fix the precise limits of the struggle ; but there is no doubt our rule will be re-established over that country ; and then will come the important duty of re-organising our government over 130,000,000 of people. The government of India is a problem of which the his tory of the world. furnishes no solution ; and our indulgence is demanded for those upon whom the task of reconstituting our government in that country not been do ne f or I nd i a i n the way o No doubt more m i g h t h ave been done, must bear in m i n d th e di ff i culty ngmoev it through the n would be ruined way been rfy that maymb improvement.ou f rt a e l you It has been a su bj ec t o f reproac h o us has 0u arising from the danger of offending the prejudices and outraging the feelings of the natives, whil e we were obliged to govern by the aid of th e na ti ves sgmovu rt ern themselves.

The noble lord, after a few other observations, directed attention t 9 the beneficial change Effected in the moral character of our soldiers d wring the past few years, and concluded by proposing the toast above referred to, which was enthusiastically re ceived. MR. DRUMMOND. The fourth anniversary of the Dorking Agricul tural Association was celebrated to-day ; and after the usual plougbilig matches, he., the members and friends dined at the Three Tuns Inn. The usual loyal and patriotic toasts having been given, The Chairmanproposed the health of the County Members. Mr. t spoke a s f o ll ows ; Mr. gnh ce u 3 unfortunate mem b ors: in rather an aw k ward position (a You ask us to come to-..what 1.;•-to the icy) anniversary of an agricultural society; not that we are agriculturists or-practical farmers, but merely because we are county members. And allow me to ask what do county members - know about Mai-ngoll wurtzel ? (Laughter.) I suppose we are invited because we are expected to say something about Delhi land Cawnpore ; but my friend has ,said no thing political is allowed. Well, I will promise not to say anything about Delhi or Cawnpore tonight. I will Stick to farming on this occasion at any rate. (A laugh.) I like those cups that have been dis tributed this evening, but 1 hardly admire them empty, (Laughter:) I should like to see them filled with real good ale, such as I used to have when I was a young man—ale of 10 busbcils to the hogshead—that was the thing when I was young ; but it has now gone clean out of the county, for I don't know where it is to be found—in fact, I don't believeit is to be found in the county. It has . 4seen said that the longer we live the more we advance. That may be true to some extent, but we don't 'advance in all things—at least not in beer. (Laughter.) But you must advance ; you must leave ;nothing undone that you ought or can do. It is all very well - for a boarding-school girl to say, "I have only another year to stay and my education will be finished." That might do for her, but not for a -man with any brains at all. (Laughter.) A man never has his education finished, and all L can say to you in this room is, that it you do not farm better now than you did ten years ago you must be great dolts indeed. (Laughter.) I see on one of the banners here the words, " Scientific Agriculture." Well, that means that you must- experimentalise. You cannot do anything without experiments. You cannot advance in yOur undertakings ; you -0 tnnnt effect any grand improvements ; you eau.ngA `h - ope to - succeed, without you make experiment-. It is to the results of experiments you must look for advancement and success. You mayi talk of education ; but what is the use of all your educa tion without you put it to some practical use ? lam no enemy of education ; but I am an enemy to cant and humbug wherever I find it—(ltaughter) —and I think the present system of education iu your schools is nathing more than rank übnsense. I want to see every class of soci3ty, everyb&ly edu sated. The farmers need some additional educa tion, and I should like them to have it and their children, too, and the children of the peasant popu lation I should like to see better educated. But I want to see them have a practical and useful edu cttion ; and one great feature is, to make the girls cook and wash, which many of them tort daily can not do at the present time. (Laughter.) It is no good talking about education without you are pre pared to teach something practical and useful. As I before said, lam n enemy of educ ttion ; but my opposition certainly extends to the preeent use less system adopted in many instances. I went to two miniwers of the Crown last year, when an immense number of skilled artisans were put of employment at Woolerich, and what do you think those two fellows told me ? (A laugh.)` Why, they told we that labour would find its leVel, like water. Very likely • but rater did not have a wife an d seven children. (Much laughter.) It is all humbug to talk about supply and demand. (A. laugh.) I have no doubt that in the course of dole, the Dorking labourers may be comp/ailed to go to Liverpool for employment ; but if they wait until Liverpool can employ them all, I am afraid many will die of starvation before the day arrives. There is no doubt, however, that you are better farmers than the round frock farmers- used to be. But where is the round frock ? Ido not I , lre to see that superseded. It has, however, gone out of fa shion of late; but I do not know the reason why. A similar change has taken place in Scotland since Englishmen took to grouse shorting in that part of the United Kingdom, for at the present time not a kilt is to be seen but what are worn by Englishmen. (Laughter.) But lam tiring you, I will, however, again impress upon you the necessity of becoming scientific agriculturists. You must learn to know what you require, and how to apply it when you have obtained it. There is a medical man sitting at this table ; but what good would he he if he did not know what to do when called upon It was no use when one child was siec here and another there, for the doctor to say tie did not know what was the matter with them, but to give them physic merely because it was physic, without knowing what effect it would have. So with you —you must learn to know what your lard and what your roots .require before you apply your present rem -dy for all ills— dung (laughter), merely because it is dung - and wh a t is d ung ? O n l y something that stinks. (Much laughter.) You mast find out what your turnips and your mangolds retpire" sans d truces., - - - - -one ougut to 't treated quite in a different manner. it Is tt tze, perhaps, that a man, after 40, never get a new idea; but you have sons and daughters ; you must sea that they don't fall into the same errors as those who went before them. Forty years ago it was a rare thing to get wheat weighing 601 b. to the bushel; now, however, nothing is thought of 66:b3. ; but let me till you that you are cultivating more wheat than you are mutton. (Laughter.) You can't go on in this way much longer ; for what is supposed to be mutton now is made of great lambs, and is not mutton at all. Another thing! wish to say a word or two upon—namely, the improved dwellings for farm labourers. My friend here (Mr. Hop-) is as rich as Crcesus—(laughter)—and what is more for tunate, he is a very benevolent than ; and so he builds very fine cottages. But there is a very im portant question to be asked, how does the system pay ? You can't look for more than 3/. per year rent for your cottages from farm labourers. No doubt some charge more ; but that is wrong ; 31. is as much as you ought to. expo .t to receive. Well, then, if you build large 'houses how is it to pay ? Houses must be warmed—not that I believe any person in this or any other wood county buys fuel, because they can steal it. (Laughter.) They have only to step over a hedge into any person's fie!d, and they can find as much as they like; and of course any person living in a wood country wou'd be a fool to buy any fuel when he can get it for no thing. (Laughter.) So in the north, where people lived at the mouth of the coal-pit ;of course they did not purchase fuel. But fuel cannot always be had for nothing, so that it will b 3 useless to build large houses with great windows- if the people in tending to occupy them have nothing to warm them. All these are practical questions of detail ; but they aro worthy of consideration, and the whole wisdom consists in their successful application. Several other toasts having been given and re sponded to, _ _ - A tdstimontal, consisting of a magnificent tea and coffee service, was presented to Mr. T. Page, the hon. secretary, for his indefatigable exertions in carrying on the affairs of the association. The proceedings were continued until an advanced hour of the evening. THE MEMBERS FOR EAST SUFFOLK. Mr. W. MILES, M.P., in acknowledging his health at the meeting of the Farrington Gurney Agricultural Association, said, that on an occasion like the present, it was generally expected that a representative should declare his opinion on the most important public measures of, the day. He believed that if ever there was a question on which unanimity prevailed throughout the country among all classes, it was that of the Indian mutiny. They could not but look back with horror andthe deepest disgust at what had taken place in that country —a country in which we had been known for up wards of a century as Englishmen—a country iu which we had endeavoured as much as we possibly could, and with great success, to educate, and at the same time, as far as Government could, to do goodto the natives ; and yet, when little expected, though foreseen by some who had been many years resident there, a mutiny had broken out which had put in' jeopardy our Indian empire, and in which had been exhibited horrors of the most detestable character. He was always for mercy when mercy could be fairly meted out, but one cry had gone through this country- r that of summary vengeance upon such scoundrels as, de spising our rule, had wreaked their vengeance on unoffending women and children. Not only our countrymen, but our countrywomen and their chil dren, have been massacred, and, until a thorough expiation took place, England, he was proud to think, would never be satisfitd. That a great change must take place in the Government of India he had no doubt ; that was a subject which was growing in the minds of "all men who gave it the least consideration. At present, however, they had nothing to do with what the future Govern. meat of India should be. But of this he thought there could be Ito doubt, that a double Government could no longer exist that the Queen must rule su preme in that country, and the whole of the Minis ters must be subject to the o mtrol of public opinion rather than under an Indian Board. The chairman had alluded to the heroisni of those little bands who had withstood such onslaughts in India. Great as had been their prowess, did it not strike all who had thought upon the subject that if a Providence from on high had not directed their hands—if the Almighty, whom we revered, had not been with them, their strength would have been idle, and no longer should we have maintained our dominion. in rrB.E IRISH METROPOLITAN MIGAZINE, for November, 18.57, Price 28. 6d. 1.

For many years past Lord Brougham has been in the habit of spending the autumn months during the recess of Parliament at his seat in Westmoreland, Brougham-hall, which is distant from Penrith about a mile., In September, 1849, his lordship presided at the dinner of the Westmoreland and Cumberland Agricultural Society. at Penrith, and afterwards, in the same autumn, at the dinner of the Agricultural Society at Carlisle. This was the last public appearance of his lordship in the county of Cumberland. Some time ago the magistracy and g- ntlemen of the two counties made arrange ments to entertain bis lordship at a public dinner, which great local event came off at Penrith on Wednesday last. The dinner was not got up for party or political purposes, bat simply to do honour to the venerable and illustrious law re former and statesman in the neighbourhood of his ancestral hall. The d nner was served in the George Assembly Room, a place far too small to accommodate the numbers who would have been glad to be present on the r.ccasion. In the absence of the Earl Gf L s onsdale, the ch a i r was occup i e d b y E . W. Hasell, Esq , chairman of the Quarter Sessions for the counties of Westmoreland and Cumberland. The' vice-elm:r was filled by Henry Howard, Esq., of Greystoke Castle. Among the gentlemen present were Charles Howard, Esq., M.P., W. N. Hodg son, Esq., M.P., John Steel, Esq., M.P. Sir J. H. Maxwell, Win. Wakefield, Esq., John Crosby, Esq., and. Wm. Crackanthorpe, Esq., strenuous supporters of Lord Brougham during the West m9reland elections. Oa th , 3 removal of the cloth, the Chairman gave the usual loyal and p ttriotic toasts. The CHAIRMAN then rose, amidst tremendous applause, to propose the toast of the day. Nothing, he said, could nave been more gratifying to Lord Brougham's neighbours, or to the gentry of the counties of Cumberland and Westmoreland anti his lordshVs presence at that tneating. (Applause.) Men of all parties had assembled to gether to sink all party diff erences , a ll party di— putes, to express their high regard and respect f(.r a most distinguished statesman, who shod forth amongst the most eminent statesmen of this coun try, and could compete with the statesmen of any other c - .uotry. (Hear, hear.) He was a statesman of world-wide reputation. They had heard of him bring o-41 Lia in A n . .t..6.6.444,...64.04 , 0• 434 443 , -011,4 01 LIU:. 4 -rreab tr,4 -ti In P...ei:.. Cs His eouducc.'and hi s tsleu ha d acquired for him .., i.fl...ncre over other countries as well ai his own. (Bear, bear.) In all the toa4s proposed, mention hail been made of the surprising talente of Lord Brougham, and there must be some foundation for those remarks. It was all very well to say that a mad was clever, but a great deal depended upon the manner in which be be stowed his talents. The learned lord had talents inferior to no man in the kingdom, or in any other country ; and he had bestewed his talents in a manner in which few men had done, and on that account he stood pre-eminent. (Great applause.) There were some particular ques tions which were greatly agitating the minds of the people. He (the chairman) saw around him friends on both sides of the question. He would merely say, that in a tree country like this, unle , s theyhad a powerful opposition they would soon have a bad administration. If they had a powerful and efficient administration 'they must also have a for midable opposition. The chairman next referred to several questions which had been decided, some of hem contrary to his own judgment, though they might now b-. considered as settled. In the early part of the noble lord's career he became ail-pow- oi _ fur in the House of Commons on the question of the abolition of negro slavery. Lord Brougham and his tulle agues in that mater were influenced by the noblest prieciples, and there was no matter that had ever engaged his lordship's attention that could now give him greater satisfaction. The chairman next referred to his lordship's exertions to procure the abolition of slavery in the West Indies. Many . noble charities would also have been lost but for the commission which was appointed to inquire into the same through the persevering energy of his lordship. To show thAt Lord Brougham's reputation rested on no slippery or sandy foundation, he (the chairman) would refer them to his efforts in behalf of education. Nothing could be more subversive of the interests of society than gross ignorance. In the calendars at the assizes it was a fact that the majority of criminals were entered as not being , able to read or write. No question of greater im portance could possibly occupy the mind of any statesman than that of education. The chairman next referred to his lordship's efforts in the cause ef.law reform, particularising the acts • which had been most generally beneficial, and concluded by referring to the act by which the law relating to marriage, which were often attended by great un happiness, had been amended. The chairman then proposed the health of the noble lord, which was drunk with thrice three Cumbrian cheers, and the band played ",The Fine Old English Gentleman." Lord BROUGHAM rose amidst applause of such a deafening character that it was sometime before he could proceed to address the meeting. Silence being restored, his lordship begged to tender his most beady thanks for the very great—he might almost say the unexampled—ein.dness ,which the two counties had been pleased to bestow upon him. A meeting of this sort, without distinction of sect or party, met together for one object, namely, to testify their sense of the very imperfect services which he had been enabled to render for the good of Society, and the general interests of his fellow - countrymen, such a gathering on such an occasion was far more important on account of its object, however gratifying it might be to himself. (Ap plause.) He would, however, own that what had been so kindly said by almost all those who had ad dressed the meeting had brought with it some humiliation, for he could not but think how far beyond any deserts of his were the tributes which they had paid. (No, no.) What was infinitely more important than any personal considera ion— ho meant the progress which they were making and in which those two counties had exhibited a forward part —the progress they were making i n social improvement. His friend, the chairman, had referred, and.most justly, to certain measut es which had originated with the magistrates of the two counties. He was only the bearer of their sugges tions to parliament, upon which were founded mea sures of great importance, and with which was alsc) coupled the name of his learned friend Mr. Faw cett. The chairman had also referred to the mar riage question ; he only hoped' as that was, like many other measures, important in itself,ia a better marriage law would be given to other parts of the United Kingdom. However, it was alt very well ; the old proverb was, " When you cane it get what you like, endeavour to like what you have." of educatiii is lordship t next referred to the ques.ti )11 OD that , great lever of all social progress —of alt social economy. To Cumberland and Westmoreland, but more particular.Y to Carlisle, the great credit was to be attributed of-removing THE SOLICITOR-GENERAL.

But Ido feel that they have done much to su tain and to maintain the power and the authority of Great Britain as a nation. (Applause) I feel that upon this occa sion it would ill become us in our capacity as philanthropists not to remember—and that most warmly—their heroic deeds, their great sufferings, their deep privation, and sufferings. And if our ears have been permitted to be gladdened with the news of their victory incensing the fall of that once famed city of Delhi, that knowledge has also brought to us the death of hundreds of our felloW-creatures, and therefore that rejoicing is not an unmixed emo tion. We cannot but mourn those who have fallen, and we must sympathise with those who have sus tained a loss in this country. (Applause.) But the army and navy are an important instrument, by which the authority or executive of this country is to be maintained—by which our constitution is to be upheld. (Cheers.) They are a power which I believe never exceeds its duty, but always bows iu ready submission to the authority which gives its orders. (Cheers.) And we, as Englishmen, do rightly in remembering them in this our social meeting, and you will agree with me, I am sure, that the sooner they can terminate their labours in the East and bring peace, not only to this country, but also to other nations —the sooner peace can reign throughout the world.—the more we and our succes sors shall be delighted. (Loud cheers.) The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, in r e pl y to the toast of " The Borough Members," said, ever since he had been member for the borough of Reading he had always esteemed it to be the proudest position, not only that he ever had, but that he could hope to at tain. Since last he had the honour of acknow ledging a similar kindness a change had taken place. It had pleased her Majesty to tsppoi nt him her Soli citor-General, and, greatly as he esteemed that honour (and he trusted he estimated it at its worth), he assured them that he considered, that, or any honour to which he could attain, as second to the honour of representing that borough in Parliament. He had not for g otten the kindnes s w hi c h hi s hon. colleague (Mr. Pigott) and himself experienced at the hands of the const tuency of Reading when they were returned at the general election without oppo sition ; and when, upon her Majesty appointing him So licitor - General—thereby vacating his seat and bringing him back to his constituents to ask them for a renewal of their confidence—he could not for get the kindness with which he was received and the manner in which he was met by persons of all poli tics in the borough. He was conscious that he could not during his Parliamentary career have done any thing to deserve that confidence. All that he could pretend to was a sincsre wish to discharge the duty which he had taken upon himself. Ho had not se present..3d-tbe borough of Reading so long as he, hon. frie n d Mr. Pigott, yet he had represented some years; and every year he held that distinguished position had increased the marks of favour which /~2 the grey• c ty respecting readin chanics' institutions, long after the time and aPprentic g' `room me of his friend Dr. B ro .k mg, 80 These institutions were the institutio. . 1r bee ' k the middle classes and the upper bsuortttohfoltnheeawhlii:dlh dle cl uses had the management rule had completely obviated th e difflculty. ;ja r had e been bron2ht about by his -friend, Dr. Elliott, had been bron2ht about by his friend Dr. Elliott, of Carlisle.

(Hear.) The chairman had alluded to the measures of which he (Lord Brougham) laid the foundation 40 years age in respect of the charitable trusts. Ha had recently witnessed an instance at Brummagem (Birmingham) of the good which had resulted from 'he inquiry of the commissioners ; a large revenue of 13,0001. had beenrecovered, and King Edward's College founded, which college was disseminating the blessings of education. His friend Sir John Pakington had said that religious instruction was the basis of all education. The great problem was how different sects could be united under one sys tem of education, it being admitted that religious instructieu must needs be the foundation- of educa tion. (Hear, hear.) It was found that all sects enited togeth er i n th at school, and his friend was , anguine enough to hope that the same kind of sys estn there adopted may become universal. In all ;he education bills he had presented, first in 1820, hen in 1830, 1833, 1836, and 1837, and down to ;hree years ago, that had been the great obstacle, he uaitiog of persons of different sections and opi nions, which would now, if the . opinion aids friend Nits correct, disappear. The chairman had referred to the establishment of local courts. He was much satisfied with what had been acquired. His bills of 1828, 1830, and 1833, had not been Carried to the length he could have wishsd, as the County C - ourt ought to possess an (quitahle jurialiction, and be extended to 1001. instead of 501. His lord .hip next r ferred to the petition presented in Par liament by several of the most eminent solicitors in -Landon, in-which ,;r, was stated that they could not ad vice any client to go into chanceryforany less sum than 1,0001., as they would probably get no remedy', aldose perhaps a remedy worse than the disease. (Laughter.) His lordship next referre 1 - to certain bills which he had brobghtintime after time, which After passing the House of Lords, which was agreat thing, were thrown out by the House of Commons. The House of Lords had been called the obstruc tives, but of late it was the other way. His friends Hr. Howard, Mr. N. Hodgson, and Mr. Steel be longed to the profession. (Laughter.) Butth e t ru th must be told, and if there were obstructives in the way they were not in the House of Lords. Some times they (the lords) did perform a little feat of Astruction themselves • but the obstruction has not been somuch with them lately as with the House of Commons. The act of 1811, which he succeeded in passing, put that infernal traffic of slavery, not as an offence against the revenue, but as a crime of he deepest dye, and which was followed by the final abolition of slavery. These were great and lorious triumphs, and as far as England was con torned, slavery in her dominions existed no more. These were great triumphs of the principles of hu m anity and of justice ; but if we were called upon to retrace our steps, and to retravel the ground for 7u or 80 years—if .we were called upon to restore Africa to the horrors of that infernal traffic, or our West India settlements to their state of negro sla very, should we not rather any other course, than be guilty of such weakness? And the abandonment .4 our Eastern Empire would be productive of pre lisely the same effects—(appla,use)—for it was not that England depended on India for wealth, not that Englaud depended on India for power—if England had never setfoot in India, or if Indiawere taken from her, her wealth and her power would still remain the same, but then we should hand over millions of the unhappy inhabitants of India to all the horrors of primitive barbarism, as when our reign ceased, there would then commence. the reign if anarchy, of rapine, and of blo3d. We, who had for a lengthened period, in fact fr nn our possession of India, imparted a partial civilisation ; -we, who had con terred upon them the inestimable blessings of an administration of justice, generally speaking pure —pure when compared to her own, we should then hand those unhappy people over to all the horrara of thegovernment of their own native chiefs-, still fighting among themselves, and bringing the great,T amount of misery upon their unhappy alib i vs. Therefore the thought of ahand ining India /as entirely out of the quest i on--(hear)—that is, providing we are not compelled to give it up. Heaven avert the possibility of such a thing t He (Lord Brougham) did not believe that it was within the limits of possiblity that such an event should happen. If it did, our prestige would be lowered, our repu'ati el tarnished ' • and when national honour &patted a country lost it i only safe protec t on. Some one once said to Mr. Fox, is a war only upon a point of notional h "Only -neon national hOualiri;_ sa id tom, 1 should - know how any war -could be defended lipon ttn.Y other ground. (Hear, hear.) Unless you come to a point of national honour, which means national existence, you had better not go to war at ail." He therefore called upon them to make every sacrifice and to strai n every nerve; for if they were driven' out of India, they were safe nowhere else. Hi s (Lord Brougham's) hon. friend had said, that after this great struggle was over—it was only a struggle with an armed body of mutineers —th a t when the s ruggle was over, much would remain to be done to prevent the recurrence of mischief, and to im prove the administration of the country. The giving of it up was impossible on all bands, for we were habituated to supreme sway there; we wore inured to empire, but some modification of our government—of our administration rather than our government —was required, which would come under the consideration of Parliament. Another point mooted was the limits of the retribution to be inflicted, bait that question would be decided long before Parliament was called upon to deliberate. Justice ought to take precedence. Far be it from him (Lord Brougham) not to wish that every possibie meant should be taken whereby the innocent should be Eeplra`ed from the guilty ; but that severe punishment was ne cessary—that re ribution was almost a matter of course—that, as on the banner before him, justice must be placed above mercy, was a matter of ne cessity. Other banners might place the words "Peace and harmony, honour and loyalty," on a level, but justice and mercy must follow in 83.. quence, and justice must precede mercy. (Hear.) Though not immediately connected with social progress and social economy, it seemed impossible for him (Lord Btoughatn) to refrain from saying a word on the subject. (Hear, hear.) He begg , d once - more to return his must hearty thanks for the great, the almost unexampled kindness which had been conferred upon him. His lordship resumed his seat amid loud applause. Several other toasts were afterwards given and responded to, and when his lordship left the George Rota he was lourtly cheered by an immense con course of people who had assembled outside. TIJE EPIDEMIC AT LISBON. LIS BON, OCT. 24. The prevailing epidemic appears to be increasing instead of yielding be!ore the advance of winter and the prevalence of a much colder atmosphere. The deaths during the last ten days have averaged some 80 to 90 daily. It is said that the Viscount de aorta and Carlos Bento, Minister of the In terior, are indisposed. The well. known actor Epi fanio, of the Theatre of Donna Maria 11., is among the recent victims of ti.e fever. Although au immense number of the inha bitants of Lisbon have fled into the villages and townships around the capital, few cases of the epidemic have yet occurred there. The King still continues to reside at Necessidades. Political and commercial news there is none—. still nothing is talktd about or thought of but the dreadful disease which weekly adds its hundreds t , ) the bills of mortality.
