THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 7, 1853.

of time and circumstances, already before my return from!
America, decided not to speak. any more publicly in Eng- •
laud, I lost ss much the ease of st)le and the habit of ora-
tory, that I scarcely cm forbear to feel embarrassed like a ;
riebtaarst, in venturing with my broken English ear* more
to etlend the language in which a Shakspeare wrote, and
Douglas Jerrold has just charmed my ears. I fear the
nielocy of its tunes will break at the hbres of my uno ieldy
toi gue, like the chords of a harp under the metallic fingers
of an iron hand. Still the honour conferred on me at this
occuion, the gift which I receive, the men by whom and
the time whin, and the manner in which it h offered me
require :from me such • respectful acknowledgment and
such gratitude, that you were indeed entitled to charg • roe
with puerile affectation should I neglect to manilst the
deep emotion at receiving this delicate testimonial of kind-
ness, consolation, and regard, and to say • few words of
warm and sincere thanks. My lord, I have here received
this evening a precious addition to thd numerous tokens of
friendship and sympathy to my country, with which people
of different climates, different in origin, in language, reli-
gious worship, habits, and political organisation, have ho-
noured me ; tokens worthy to adorn the national hall
of new-born Hungary, once the trials of national mis-
fortune shall pass. And may I sink or seim, may
I hive or die, I trust to God they will be placed there,
to -taint as memorials of the brotherly tie which unite the
national members of mankind to one common family, which
has one common Father there above. To those memorials
the old Magyar will lead the children of his children; to in-
spire there with the same just teeliug of broth• rly affection
to their follow-men ; and tell them how we have merited
those tokens of world-wide sympathy, by having fought
bravely, and suffied ungrudgingly fur freedom and father-
land ; and admonish them to remain worthy of that sym-
pathy by using wisely, and by maintaining resolutely that
freedom +hien we will have conquered for them. That,
sir, permit me to say, will be • more adequate use of this
your valuable gif. than should I with selfish egotism of in-
nocent joy only keep it to delight me sad my children with
at my own humble fireside. This, your noble gift, gentle-
men, accompanied with sack noble word, as were spoken, I
trust yea will not ri fuse me the permission to devote to
loftier use. There is a deeper meaning in this your pre-
cious gift. It is my nation's, not mine alone ;
and for such I will Meow and will cherish it.
The weeks of Shaltepears—a valualle treasure by the artis-
tical execution itself, a noble specimen of English typo-
praphie art ! Besides it is, I suppose, of the edition of Mr.
Charles Knight, that gentleman who has done more than
any othecman to popularise Shakspeare, and who stands
so high in the affeeti in of the English people, for his seri-
Unions services in the canoe of popular education by mesas
of cheap literature. The works of Shakespeare—of that
mighty genius which cute its rays of instruction; of en-
bolding sentiments, end of heart-thrilling delight through
centuries past, and centuries to come—those bright rays
which pierce triumphantly even the gloom of our too
material age, and the lustre of which but grows more
radiant as age after age showers its darkassa upon the
grave of his mortal remains—andebese works of that Shake-
speare, given to me, whom in the prison, which I had to
suffer fen having dared to claim the right of free
prey for my c sentry— I say, given to me, whom in
pleading with my stammering tongue my country's virtue
and its wrongs and its hopes, he has taught to find the way
to the heart of the wide spread Anglo-Saxon race, the
mightiest on earth, and the only free ! Why, my lord, there
are associations of such comprehensive nature attached to
this gift, that though it were the gift of one single generous
friend, it would deserve to. be taken fur a treasure, and
valued as with. But the merit of this gift is not com-
passed with thews ; there is a point yet, the chief one, the
record of which will gladden many a sad hearten the banks
of the Danube, in my far native land, and that point, my
lord, is that these Works of Shakespere here are the gift of
9.000 English working men! Why,. my lard, that
looks like something of public opinion, I dare my.
Penny by penny, ennobled by the noblest title of
property, and honest work, is a revelation of the people
of England's feelings. My lord, penny by penny—it is a
vote showing that the people of England, in its rysimsthies
fur the oppressed, does not so much care shoat the frowning
of foreign despots, whom some like to flatter, and some
would fain please. To be sure those 20,000 working men,
who thus honour me, are not yet the people of England.
My lord, that I know, but they are from the people. My
lord, bone from its bone, and blood from its blood, who but
think and feel as the people does, and cannot otherwise
think and feel but just as the people does; the people which,
in its uncorrupted spontaneous manifestations, was, is, and
will always be, the purest revelation of mankind's divine
origin; the people which, with its plain natural aspirations,
often points out a better direction of policy, and is
a more reliable guide to the most learned politi-
cians, than all the contorted sophistry of twisted
diplomacy ; like as Shakspeare has drawn from the
limpid source of nature, more truth, more beauty, and •
more instructing philosophy than, all the 'scholastic contro-
versy of his age could have taught him. Indeed, nay lord,
weighing thus the value of those 9,000 votes of sympathy,
seeing you my lord, in the chair, you whose name is since
long identified in the thankful recollection of the oppressed,
with all that is generous, liberal, just and philanthropic,
and seeing men of genius, learning, whom England loves
and respects, associating the well-earned renown of their
name to this popular manifestation, and taking upon them-
selves to be the interpreters of what the people thinks, and
of what the people feels ; and seeing around me men high
in the confidence of their countrymen for their consistent
patriotism, aid even some of those renowned champions of
right, freedom, and progress, whom the people chose to
watch over the glorious destinies of this great empire,
lending the authority of their presence to this solemn act,
I fear not to become too presumptuous in aimuning that
there is something of public opinion in this act here, and
that at • moment too, when some would faia be-
lieve, and act upon that belief, that there is
no such public opinion any more in England at all.
No public opinion ! why the very fear which the continental
despots but too clearly manifest, keeping the hangman and
their martial courts, and their host of spies incessantly in
move, that very fear but too clearly shoes that there is such
public opinion condemning them all over the world. They
know it too well, that though nroported by millions of
bayonets, many of whom think that no power on earth
Can last long which the public opinion of the world con-
demns; they know it too well that no cause has to despair
of its ultimate triumph which public opinion of the world
supporta. Knowiog the conventional rules by which, if not
all, at lewd. the European powers, areguided in their policy,
certainly neither those despots do fear ; nor do we expect
to see England going to fight for the freedom of the world;
not that is it which they fear; but they know that
so long as the public opinion of the world continues
to cheer up the oppressed with its sympathy the
oppressed millions wail
public opinion of the world is an everflowitig source of en-
couragement to them ; it is the mother carts, personified in
the fable about Animus rug ing the strength and de-
termination of the giant—the people—at every fall. Yes,
here I say it, and history will prove it to be true, so long as
we have the sympathy of public opinion, our oppressed na-
tions will never despair; and they want but not to despair;
and sooner or later they will become free. They have by
not despairing bat to stand pulsated to prof of the
coming opportunities ; and so sure as there is an All-
watching Eye there above, the opportnuity win not fail to
come. As well could a child reverse the wheel of the roll-
ing worlds, as well could you bring to rest the quaking
earth with fastening it to a wooden pole, stop the foaming
flood with a sieve, or break the hurricane with a sheet of
paper, as arrest the rolling course of chance. The oppor-
tunity will come, and the oppressed nations, supported in
their unfired resolutions by the public opinion of the world,
will and shall become free. Amen. It is, therefore, that
the trembling despots resort at home day by day to the
hangman and to terrorism, while they resort abroad to
every imaginable trick and plot to arrest, or to pervert, the
public opinion of the world. Shall I tell you a sad tale of
the former kind ? You remember the attempt of Libe'nyi
to awaninate Francis Joseph, whom men may call Emperor
of Austria, but who certainly is not King of Hungary. I
certainly am not the man either to excuse assassins or to
justify assassinations, though you all • are taught in your
universities to honour Brutus with the name of • hero and
patriot. I only wonder why eh who justly condemned
Libenyi for his criminal attempt, have not all of them equal
words of condemnation for other assassinations. But that
I will lease to their own conscience. However, Libinyi
having stricken his blow, General Kemfen sent word to the
martial-court, that from the vast number of Hungarian
political prisoners four shall be despatched immediate ly to
Perth, to be excreted there. The court-martial—mark the
words, geattemen—oven an Austrian court-martial—an-
awned that, unfortunately they cannot furnish his Excel-
lency with the wanted victims, as it just so happens that
there is no prisoner coadesaned, or who could be condemned
to death, all fit persons having beets (helmeted in due
course. Well, Kemfen answered," If you have none, I
will designate four who, panty or not guilty, shall die." 83
he did. The court-martial remonstrated, that the desig-
nated individuals had already their trial, and nothing of •
capital kind having been proved against them, they have
been sentenced upon suspicion—the individual suspected,
but not identified, to be • patriot to ten yea-s' prison ;
Jubbal, formerly tutor to the children of my sister, to four
Jean ; and the two others equally to imprisonment. Kemfen
answered, " Tried or not tried, that dues not matter; they
shall die." And a new special court basing been patched
up in baste, they have been doomed and executed.
Was that assassination committed to frighten politi-
cal assassins? No. political aseasoins once deter-
mined to violate morality, do not fear death.
From Muting of old, to Charlotte Corday, and
from her to Libdnyi—all of them have proved it, that they
don't fear death. Why, therefore, renew that foul judiciary
assassination to which Louis Batthyani, of immortal me-
mory, fell s victim in as equal manner? Why, to terrify
with pu lie opinion at home, and to pervert with public
opinion abroad, so much are they afraid of it. But, in their
blind nnziety, sometimes, happily, they choose, to this
effect, very_ curious steps. I lived a retired life for many
m eiths. The sympathy of public opinion was still with me
for my country's sake. I was sure of it : the straight, up-
right, honest, heart of the people of Eagland dots not
ebange iu its moral affections like a weathercock ; but men
hove, of course, other thing, to do than to speak always of
poor down-trodden Hungary,when there is no practical oaco-
sion for it ; and my name was scarcely named for months.
And they thought, now is the tinie,there is no public opinion
wore to support him—let us strike some blow at him. Well,
they wanted public opinion manifested again. There
they have it—and can have more of it, if they
*ate, without any ce-operation of mine. Old Eng-
lead's sense of justice will do what is right.
With these facts, that truth, and all the necessary, the un-
avoidable, and, I dare say, fatalistical consequencies re-
sulting therefrom before our eyes, what contemptible
moantsbankery it is to see the despots and their helpmates
mooing the air that were it not for some so-called con-
spirators Italy would love Austrian tyranny, and Hungary
Maid get Masi:lien to its unutterable sulterinpa

wrongs. Conspirators! But in the name of all what is
Lured to man, thine oppressors there, they are the comp':
raton against Ood, against humanity, against the peace of
the world ! his they who make Europe boil like a vol-
cano, and the coutisent quake to the very foundation of
society ! I beseech you but to read the declaration of in-
dependence of Hungary. I will let it be reprinted pro-
Tided it be lawful in England to print it, that it may
be recalled to the memory of the world. I beseech
you to read it, and then I would like to see who in the face
of high heaven will call Francis Joseph " illustrious youth,
the hope of his people"—the hope of his people! Od, Al-
mighty God! and we will see who it is wham the uncor-
rupted and incorruptible public opinion shall call a traitor
and conspirator. Conspirators! \Would you call a con-
spirator the worm which is writhing beneath the foot which
tramples it to death ; the insect a conspirator which stings
towards the heel which crushes him ; or the spring a con-
spirator, that it dares to melt the winter's ice, and push
nature to new blooming life? But liberty is life to man
everywhere: it is doubly so to a Magyar's heart. It is
liberty which makes man; without liberty, nations
were but domestic animals kept to profit their owner, and
not an aim by themselves. But man and nations are des-
tined to be the aim of their own existence, and they
can become it but by becoming free. Hence is liberty
man's

Plowing hope. Igs food &alre,"l

the wish for it is

like hie longing afieF im-

mortalit. It is only di; killing. of med's with igno
ranee, the making him unconscious of Ida/self, which could
prevent nations from striving for liberty. There may be
nations reduced to such a condition of brutes, but to those
liberty is an unknown treasure, as the light to the blind
born child. But we Magyars are not thus! We are fami-
liar with it, we have tasted it, we have purchased it with
our best heart blood, and, having been bereft of it by the
grossest violation of divine, human, and national law, we
shall strive for it so long as we live by every honourable
means. The very dead of as, like Ziaka of Bohemy, once
will aid the living to strive for liberty. If that they call
conspiracy let them do so. That conspiracy they shall
never . I for one declare, in the face of high heaven,
that enjoying your country's protection, I certainly desire
to respect scrupulously your country's laws, bat so long as
there is life in me I will love freedom, I will remain faith-
ful to my fatherland, and never despairing of its future,
will continue to watch with intense solicitude the electric
spark of opportunity from the bawls of bountiful Provi-
dence, to catch from it the sacred
,dame of emancipation
from lawless oppression which my country is suffering. I
should be the meanest wretch could I act otherwise. Whea
the congress of my nation, both lords and representatives
of the people, elected me unanimously governor of the
realm of llungary, and all the millions of my people,
county by county, city by city, and town by town, con-
firmed that election, wet called upon to swear that I will
devote all my life to maintain the rights, freedom, and in-
dependence of my country. I swore that oath before God
and the people, and thus the aspirations of the patriot's
heart became to me the sworn duties of a man elected to
the highest place in the commonwealth for that very aim.
I claim neither the dignity nor the title of that place,
but I claim the title of an honest man, faithful
to his sworn oath. The fact of a foreign despot
having invaded my [country does not efface that!
oath, nor can it dispense me from the duties of a patriot, it
rather increases those duties by having increased the op-
pression of my fatherland. Finally, as to these recent oc-
currences to which your hodsurable orators have alluded,
I think the most proper course for me will be not to enter
upon that subject on the present occasion. 1 believe it was
due** my part to bring wine facts to the knowledge of
public opinion, but it is equally due from me to leave it to
Englishmen to judge, to define, and to guard English liber-
ties. And so much even I, in my humble condition, may
be permitted to say, that even what last evening occurred
in the House of Common., the report of which will carry a
thrilling joy to the heart of million., is a new glorious evi-
dence that the liberties of England, that cheering hope and
consolation to the oppressed, are sure, because guarded by
such Englishmen. It is your part to fix the conditions
upon which England is to remain an asylum to political re-
fugees; ours is to wish to know those conditions, and shape
our course accordingly, thankfully accepting or thankfully
dialog to accept the asylum which the institutions of
Engliproffer to political refugees. I say the iustitutions
of Emend because it is not from any special favour
on amend of my name being Kossuth, or on
amount of our having the honour to bo Hungarians,
thattbinefflum is granted to us. Francis Joseph of Aus-
sie um driven away from Vienna, or the pope himself,
finyeisim that asylum, and may be they will, and get perhaps
something more besides, which we poor victims of liberty
never would imagine to aspire at—all we would venture to
desire is, that the world-renowned reputation of English
institutions and English liberties, should answer their glo-
rious renown also in our special case; and that while we
sincerely desire to respect your laws, and I for one will
isolate them knowingly, on the other band is should
not be desired to abjure the sacred aspirations of our heart
and to abdicate the Judea of our patriotism. But against
this we feel sure under the protection of your parliament
and the watching eye of public opinion of England ; we
are sure, sir—excuse me for quoting Jour words—we are
sure to have occasion to say in England, that people
that live in other people's houses must be content with
what they get, and that people that live in other people's
houses must not expect to be treated as one of the family ;
that will 'weir be our case here, and this we rely upon it
that public opinion will not only protect us, but will also
with the mighty power of its sympathy continue to encourage
us not to despair of the future of our oppressed nations;
and thus I hope we will see yet that "time works wonders"
even to oppressed nations, and not only to pretenders; be-
siege, to use • phrase of Daniel Webster, the public opinion
of the civilised world is such an impassable, unextinguish-
able, enemy of mere violence, oppression, and arbitrary
rule, that like Milton's angels, public opinion, vital in every
part, cannot, but by annihilating, die. With this I will
earl; assuring you once more of may sincere thanks and
heartfelt gratitude.
The ex-governor of Hungary, who had been listened to
with the most breathless attention, was again salute,' on re-
suming his sees with loud and long-continuer) plaudits.
Alderman Wire, Sir J. Walmsley, and Mr. Cobden also
addressed the meeting.

once to your conduct in the public service, you being a per
holding office under the Admiralty in the dockyard,
whether you have cqutiued yourself to your duties (loud
applause).-1 did opaline myself to my duties. I have
done my duty. Ido not see that I at all interfere with
the discharge of those duties to answering any questions
that my friends may put to me, especially when they happen
to be either relations or connexion.. (Applause from the
audience.)
The noble Chairman—We shall clear the room if this is
repeated. You my you are summoned here merely on
dockyard appointments. I have to inform you that you
must answer all questions put to you by this &Gamine*,
which is appointed to consider not only the doeky.ird ap-
pointments, but generally the exercise of the inAuence and
patrons of the Admiralty in the government departments
in the several parliamentary boroughs.
Sir B. Hill—Now Mr. Truicott, it appears that you
were introduced by Lord Lennox to Mr. Forbes Mackenzie,
commonly called " the whipper in " of the government of
the day—(hear, hear)—and to Major Beresford, the goon-
dam " whipper in" of the government, who introduced you
to Colonel Forester, who it is well known took an active
part in elections, and following up my inquiries wish refe-
rence to your conduct in connexion with these gentle-
men, I wish to know whether you did or did not report
to any of these gentlemen what were the probabilities of
the success of Mr. Rolt as a candidate for Greenwich after
you had been there ?—I always thought Mr. Rolt would
succeed at Greenwich.

That is not an answer P—l told them I thought Mr.
Belt would succeed at Greenwich.

Had you no friendly conversation with one or all of three
gentlemen with reference to the Devonport election ?—No,
I think 1 had some letters from Colonel Forester with re-
ference to my private affairs.
Mr. Hay, chief clerk in the Admiralty, gave in an account
of the expense of the expedition of the Block Eagle with
Mr. Stafford to Devonport on the 22nd of June, 18d2. The
entry in the Admiralty books on the 2-sth of June was—
" Secretary's expense for official visit to Portsmouth and
Devonport Dockyards, 721. 7s. 7d." It was put under the
bead of " contingencies." The expenses incurred by the
Secretary to the Iloaed are always paid. The Secretary of
the Admiralty has never gone without the Board.
Have you an ecceuat also for a dinner given at Mores-
head's Royal Hotel, Devonport. en the 22nd of June, at
which it appears several preens were present /—Yes, it is
under the head of contingencies.
Now, have you known of similar accounts to this sent to
the Admiralty when the board itself does not go 2—l have
paid a great many expenses for journeys for the board, and
occasionally they go down to the dockyards alone, but I have
no accounts similar to this one for secretaries to the Adult-

rah/.
Whet is the amount put down as paid for the dinner at
the Hoye' Hotel T—Tite writing is—Hotel expenses at
Devonport, 481. 151. Gd., for two dap, the 22nd and 23rd
of Jane.

Colonel Coryton having been recalled, and re interro-
gated by Lord llotham as to whether he asked Sergeants
Ching, Crosse, or Marsh to give their votes, and having de-
nied it again in the sew positive term, the
.committee ad-
journed until Moeday.

paid, and a large surplus was coming to him. To the delay

6,0001.
The insolvent was discharged.
