of war: What they had to do with was Russia—her means
of action, and her ultimate aims. And if they would favour
him for a few minutes with their indulgence (cheers)—he
thought he could show them that her means of action were
deceit, the bayonet and the cannon, and that her aim and
object were uncontrolled dominion. (hear, hear.) We

----though we had heard of
the triumph over the Russians in the Caucasus' with 20,000
killed or made prisoners, and though we had heard that the
Russians were in full retreat, he seized that moment to tell
them that he had learned that intelligence with the ex-
tremest fear, because he found that the Russians in the re-
treat did not go north, homewards, but diverged to the left,
so as to take refuge in the Austrian territory. (Hear, hear.)
He told them that they had now the explanation of that
wonderful revelation of a few weeks ago, when the des-
patches of, two Russian generals declared that their armies
were highly disorganized, and that they would be beaten by
the Turkish attacks. He then noticed the ambitious plans
of Russia. A scheme was laid by Russia throughout the
globe—a plan was discussed in every cabinet, and Russia was
staking her very existence on the game now playing. She
did not do it madly or rashly, but with a full knowledge,
after full preparation, with perfect judgment, and full of
perfect command of the means of access to the statesmen in
the cabinets of Europe.) Hear, hear.) The gallant admiral

who preceded him had 'given them an extensive review of
the progress of Russia, and referred to her ambitious de-
signs ; not being contented with the limits of Europe, but
aiming at power over India, Asia, Egypt, and, in fact, to
embrace and hug the world. (Hear.) After, that appalling

what had been done by the government of this einp
gifted as it was, with talents, with numbers, with machine
with discipline, with arms, with heart, and with courage

what should he give them as a conclusion? All he could
give them was, that the government had done much to lead
us into our
inpresent condition. He then proceeded
to say that, reference •to what the gallant ad-
miral had said about the aid rendered by England
to Turkey, he was prepared tb contradict every statement he
had made; and he was prepared to support the case by
documentary evidence, and to submit to the verdict .f a

,
jury, as to who was right and who ivas wrong, (cries of
Queition" and " Order," and confusion, another call of
" Question" by Dr. Vaughan.) A gentleman called " Ques-
tion," now let him explain what the question was (cheers,)
because he was sure that it would be impossible for any per-
son to call " question" if he had comprehended it himself

ritish ministry

The Rev. Dr. VA.UGHAN, Principal of the Independent
College : I protest that the question is, what " are we to do
to help Turkey?' (Great cheering, uproar, and confusion.)
Mr. URQUHART thanked the reverend gentleman for the
admission, and the application of his words. The reverend
gentleman said the question was what were they to do to
help Turkey? He told him and them at the same time, that
they were to direct their government—he told them that the
government had caused many misfortunes. (Hear, hear..)
He then proceeded to show that the life of Kossuth was
saved from the scaffold by the unaided exertions and deter-
mination of the Porte alone.
Admiral Sir CHARLES NAPIER explained that he was not
a diplomatist, and that what he had stated had reference to
the movements of the fleets, which had assisted Turkey on
former occasions iti obtaining what she did.
Mr. TJRQUHART, in continuation, said he had come to tell
the meeting that their government was an agency of Rus-
sia (cheers, cries of " no,' " no," " order.," and confusion)—
and as he had come there on their own invitation, he would
have no delicacy in stating that that conviction was one not
hastily formed, and his reason for stating it was not opposi-
tion, but he stated it in obedience to the strongest impulse
that could sway a man, namely, that which sprung from
devotion to his country's service, and an apprehension of its
dangers. (Hear, hear-) When, therefore, a gentleman,
with the gallant Admiral's authority, told them that the go-
vernment, in a succession of events, had stood forward as the
