LIVERPOOL AUTUMN MEETING.
FAMAY.

The Cup day was bothered by the presence of an oriel°.
static company from Meows*, the seat of Lord Derby, as
well as the usual •fuer-iodised drag from Crorteth-park,
the neat of the Earl of Sefton. end the weather remaining
fine the general attendance was increased. The opening
event, the Crorteth Cap, seeded in a walk over for Per.
suasion, after which nine ran for the %%Airfield Hungry
Handicap, which had thirteen coloured. Purity opened
favourite at 6to 4, and increased in favour until at last
even money was taken about her. The fortunate light-
weight jockey, Jemmy Grimshaw, was entrusted with the
mount, and, jumping off in front, made all the running,
and woo cleverly. After little Jemmy Griinshaw had car-
ried off the Welter Handicap on Idle Girl, twelve numbers
were hoisted, half an hour before the time (two o'clock), for
the Liverpool Cap, the betting upon which became more eat.
mated a/Mho:hour for startingapproached. The two favourites,
Donnybrook and This Tartar, who until within some few
days ago were in one stable, but half of the latter having
been sold by Mr. G. Crook to Mr. Jackson, The Tartar was
brought out to oppose Donnybrook. The despised Tartar !
surprised everybody present by oompliody reusing away
with the race, and whilst the majority of the spectators,
after the horse had gone a mile, were momentarily expect-
ing him to compound and Donnybrook to take the lead, it
was the latter wbo first gave way, sad The Tartar, without
having been headed from the time he took the command,
won mealy by three lengths. For the fourth time Jemmy
Orimehaw moored four winning mounts off the reel, for the
last of which, the Liverpool Cup, the youth was presented
with 100/. The other three events, which will be found
folly described below, cell for no special comments.

EARL RUSSELL AT ABERDEEN.

ABERDEEN, FaIDAY NIGHT.

The ceremony of installing Earl Russell as Lord
Rector of the Aberdeen University, took place thin after-
noon, in Markohal College-buildings. His lordship hay-
ing takes the oaths of office, proceeded with the town
council end university authorities to the Music Hall, where
his lordship delivered his inaugural address.
Lord Itrssitt, on rising to address. the meeting, was re.
caned with very great applause. After thanking the
students for the !wooer they had done him in choosing him
as their Lord Rectos., be said that he would not detain them
by attempting to eulogise the beauties of literature, or the
acquisitions of science, but proposed as the subject of his
address the discussion of the two questions, brat, is there
any law or general rale by which the decline of states is
governed ! and secondly, wh►t is the general aspect of the
world at present, and does it teach us to hope or to deapone
In discussing the first branch of his subject, Earl Russell
entered at some length into a consideration of the causes of
the fall of the Roman Empire, and attributed it
to the corruption of the government corruption
in morals and religion. This corruption existing, the
governmeat naturally fell into the bands of men able and
powerful enough to become the tyrants of the people, and
it was vain to think, as Brutus and Cassius had done, that
they destroyed the tyranny thus created by assassinating
the Emperor. What was required was not the death of a
man, but the regeneration of a people. Earl Russell then
referred to the Reformation and its efforts on freedom, and
traced the gradual rise of the spirit of liberty on the coati.
Dept, and proceeded to consider the present state of Europe
and of the world, remarking, however, that it was perilous
ground to walk upon. It was evident that barbarian races
must give way before the more civilized. This was exem-
plified in America and other countries. His lordship
then went on to Inquire whether with regard to
Europe any improvements bad been made io government.
He needed not to refer to England, for this country,
he said, had for many years enjoyed in its perfection, or
nearly in its perfection, that which be believed to be the
beet of the imperfect forma of government which man can
attain to—(cheers)—but within a not long time a represen-
tative government, more or less imperfect, had sprung up
in various part. of Europe. In Prance, in Austria, in Spain.
in Portugal, and in acme ether countries, there were
forms of representative monarchy. And the struggle simi-
lar to what had taken place in this country from the WOOF
sion of James L to the accession of George 11., for free in-
stitutions, was now going on in then countries. Referring
to Italy, Earl Russell said—But what I coofess I rejoice in
especially is that Italy which wee so loog dead—that Italy
which for so many oestaries lay is the torpor to which she
had been condemned by the arms of Charles V., of which
I have spoken, has roused herself and has rises again ;
and as she flourished once es the republic of • single city,
spreading its arta and arms everywhere—ea she d,sariskied
again, ae a number of disunited republics, each distin-
guished by its arts and by its vigour in carrying oe war
and contest against the others—so I hope now there may
be a third shape of freedom and happiness to Italy ; and
that ea a °postai:Ansel monarchy she will shine again
among the powers aod states of Europe. (Loud chem.)
His lordship then referred to the struggles of Greece
to get through its factions and its difficulties of every kind—
and then went oe to speak of the continent of Afriria,
which in many parte bad got rid of that detestable crime
the slave trade, and expressed his belief that the task of
civilizing Africa would sot be a unless sacrifice ; but that
light wee still to shies in that part of the world. (Applause.)
Of this faith, said his lordship, was a man who was never
named in society but with honour—Captain Spike, the tra-
veller of Africa. (Cheers.) Referring to America, Earl
Russell said—There is another portion of the globe where
we still have to lament the soaves of bloodshed
which are to be Intoned ; there we still have to
lament that the bloody arbitrament of war has
not been brought to a close, and if there is any bright
spot in that dark mane it is for the African race.
(Applause.) But I cannot but believe that the civil war
in America, which ever way it may end, whether
the States may again unite of whether there is
to be a final separ►tion—l cannot but believe that
oat of these events the African race are to receive their
freedom. lam sure l need Dot speak to you of abhorrence
of slavery, because we must all have that abhorrence es
strong as we ever had ; but there is me thing which makes
it quite impossible that the master and the slave should
ever live in harmony together. His lorthhip then referred
to the proven of religion, the civilizing imluencus of
Christianity, end to the wed for the exercise of charity in
the discussions DOW going on on this subjrct. Earl Russell
concluded amidst very warm applause. bj thanking the
audience for the attention they had given him.
His lordship spoke for an hour and squatter.
The Music-hall was quite filled by students and others,
and the reception given to Earl Russell on entering and
leaving she Hall, and even when he Dan dilving through
the streets, was very enthusiastic. After the inaugural
address an address of welcome from the students was read
and presented to his lordship, and acknowledged.
Three cheers having been given for the new Lrrd Rector
and for Lady Georgians Russell, who was present, the
meeting dispersed.
