joined Douche. Before reaching the distance the pace was

lengths. Izaak Walton came with a rush at the finish, and
was placed third, a head in the rear of Douche. Midgley,

Presentation of the Freedom of the City to

Garibaldi,

At the presentation of the freedom of tha City of
London yesterday, the Chamberlain (Benjamin
Scott, Esq.), addressed General Garibaldi as fol-

lows :

Illustrious Sir,--The City of London invitee you to-day
to accept the highest honour at her disposal, placing your
distinguished name upon the list of worthies inscribed upon
the roll of honorary citizenship. It becomes my duty ac-
cordingly to addiese to you, in her name, a few words,
however inadequate, of thanks, congratulation, and hearty
welcome. We are well aware that no one shrinks more
sensitively than yourself from the voice of eulogy, and yet,
living as you do to please, not yourself alone, you will feel
that there are occasions, and this would appear to be one of
them, when, for the sake of others, truth, though fl. ttering,
should be listened to. Bear with me, then, while I
attempt to give feeble expression to the feelings of
unbounded admiration and affection entertained
towards you by the citizens of London. I am not
called to dilate upon the marvellous incidents of your event-
ful career, rivalling in interest the wildest romance, because
the resolution of this Honourable Court, devised so as to
secure a perfect unanimity of welcome, directs my remarks
rather to your character than to the political events of your
life. History, it has been acid, usually reproduces herself
at intervals more or less frequent, but we turn her pages in
vain to meet with the prototype of Giuseppe Garibaldi ;
" none but himself can be his parallel !" NVe find, sir, no
counterpart to your oareer among the tabled legends of the
early periods of that city with which your name is hence-
forth imperishably associated, when Humans in the interest
of their country

" Spared neither lands nor gold,
Nor son, nor wife, nor limb, nor life,

In those brave times of old."
In your person the primitive spirit of self-sacrifice is re-
produced, in com'Auation with characteristics and qu.lifi
cations hitherto deemed incompatible. The genius of an
accomplished general, associated with the instincts and dar-
ing of one of the old sea•kings ; valour which liberated
kingdoms and placed them at your feet, combined with the
stern incorruptibility ot a Dentatus and the severe simpli-
city of a Cincinnatus ; a heart in which the boldness of a
Leonidas dwells compatibly with the tenderness or a woman
and the trust and truthfulness of a child. The whole
strangely towered and elevated by an earnest craving for
the reign of peace, brotherhood, and freedom, manifesting
faith in the world's future, in humanity, and in God.
Twice ere mature manhood you had risked your own
life to rescue a fellow creature from drowning. Then,
like our own Florence Nightingale, you devote
yourself to the suffering and the dying at a chclera hospital
at Marseilles. Proceeding to South America, you are sub-
jected to the inffction of a torture to the utmost point of
human endurance to compel (hopeless task) the betrayal of
a friend; and, with generosity almost superhuman, you re-
lease with his life, liberty, and property intact, the monster
who had so tortured you when he falls into your hands.
What shall I say of the magnanimity which distributed the
spoils of war and of prize money on the ocean to the most
needy of your companions, and stripped from your own back
even the last remaining shirt to shelter a comrade I Re-
stored to Italy and to the work to which your life is devoted,
victory places at your disposal the revenues of two kingdoms
and spoils which might have graced an Oriental triumph ; but
you reserve not to yourself sufficient to convey you to your
sea-girt rock of Caprera ; and grandest of all, when stricken
down in the name of your country, "wounded in the house
of your friends," suffering and helpless during thirty weary
days and sleepless nights, no taunt or reproach escaped
our lips. Welcome, then, iu the language and the resolu-
tion of this court, " most generous, bravo, and disinterested
of patriots,"—
" Welcome, because the glory of thy wreath
Had never shade nor stain,
Because thy sword sprung never from its sheath
Except to cleave a chain ;
Because thy hand, outstretched to all who live,
Armed not for thine own sake,
So strong to save, opened so wide to give,
Do not know how to take;
Because thy toes can reckon to thy charge
Only the noble crime
Of faith too liberal and love too large
For this unworthy time."
We :thank you for the honour of this visit to our country
and to our City. We ace: pt implicitly the assurance that
you come among us to seek renewed health, and to find op-
portunity to thank us for the sympathy we extended and
the aid (small indeed) which we rendered to the cause of
constitutional freedom in your beloved land. We have no
selfish interest to promote in relation to this 3 our visit. The
era of revolutions is to us closed. Freedom is, as it regards
ourselves, tea accomplished fact. There may be deficiencies
to supply and defects to remedy in the laws which regulate
our social condition ; but we wait as a people patiently
and self-reliantly, being well assured that an intelligent,
earnest unanimity will ever obtain for us that which we
desire. We are, nevertheless, deeply indebted to you, sir,
far stirring anew the altar fires of our liberty, aiding
us to realise afresh how dear to us is our o:d familiar
freedom as we witness your struggles and sacrifices and
those of your gallant sons and compatriots, to win the same
for your loved Italy. You will go back to that beautiful
but long-misgoverned country to tell of a sight you have
witnessed, unique of its kind, in Europe—of a million ot
men, contributing to a triumph of the uncrowned Champion
of Liberty without the presence of a single soldier ; and you
can acquaint those who rule that the securest throne rests
solely upon the affections of a free people, and that the
power tc " terminate the era of revolutions" is in the keep-
ing of rulers and at their own disposal.
And now, sir, permit me the privilege of offering you the
right hand of fellowship as a citizen of London, requesting
your acceptance in the name of the Corporation of this sou-
'env of your visit to their city. We regret exceedingly, in
mmon with our fellow-countrymen, that having been too
demonstrative in our affection, having "loved you not
wisely, but too well," your health renders it expedient that
your visit should terminate. Lot us hope, in the language
of the Prime Minister, " that the early termination of your
visit and your foregoing the honours which awaited you in
every town in this country, however disappointing to those
who admire you, may have the effect of preserving to your
country so valuable a life."
In the name of his lordship fa the chair, of his brethren
the aldermen, and of every member of this court, I express
a fervent hope that the invigorating air of our northern cli-
mate will be found to have contributed strength and sound-
ness to your enfLebled limb, and may the unbought spon-
taneous love and welcome of a free people impart fresh nerve
to your arm, and brace your patriotic heart for any work,
for Italy or for the world, which Providence may yet have
in store for you.
General Garibaldi then came forward amidst
immense applause, and after standing a few mo-
ments as if wrapt in thought, spoke in English as
fullo ws

My Lord Mayor,—lt is certainly impossible for me to
express the gratitude I feel to you as the repicsentattve of
the glorious and great City of London, for the honour you
have conferred on me to-day. My Lord Mayor, I am
prouder of that honour certainly than the first place in war
—the first rank in war—the first honour in war—because I
consider it the greatest honour for me to be a freeman of
this glorious city---(cheers) —the focus of the civilisation
of the world. (Cheers.) Ido not exaggerate, I think, in
saying this, because I have seen now that this city is the
very centre of liberty. Here there are ;:o strangers, because
every inhabitant is at home in England. (Cheers.) I re-
peat, that it would be impossible for me to express my
gratitude to you and to the City of London, but I have to
thank you not for my own proper self alone, but for the
sake of my country, which looks to England for any succour
she can have in war, and certainly all my countrymen never
can be grateful enough to the English people for their sup-
port, their sympathy, and their material aid given to
oppressed peoples—given under every circumstance. This
is not the only occasion on which I have had the happint se
to meet the English people. I have been happy with them
in many places in the world and at many times. In America
particularly, under some circumstances under the protection
of the British flag, I have been saved. In China l received
favours from the English people so great that it is impossible
for me to forget in all my lite, and in every part of the world
my gratitude, my affection, and my love for the English
people must be imperishable. (Cheers.) lam grateful
for my country, too, for the sympathy shown it by the
English people, and in their behalf and my own I thank
you.
The General then resumed hie seat amidst
immense cheering.

A special meeting of the general committee of the
Garibaldi Reception and Testimonial Fund was held
at the London Tavern last evening for the purpose
of considering the unexpected approach of the ter-
mination of Garibaldi's visit to England. M. Ed.
ward Miall presided, and the proceedings, which
lasted for nearly three hours, were throughout very
noisy and disorderly. In nearly every instance the
speakers declined to regard ill. health as the primary
cause of Garibaldi's departure, but affirmed most
positively that the General was influenced in his
decision by representations made to him from
foreign Governments through every possible channel
that could be devised. Mr. Seely, who was present,
gave all these assertions the most complete denial.
He said that owing to the number of the towns
which Garibaldi had engag,d or proposed to visit,
exceeding 30 in all, his friends perceived that they
could not be kept without seriously endangering his
health. Accordingly, on Sunday night last the
Duke of Sutherland, Earl Shaftesbury, General
Eber, Colonel Peard, Mr. Gladstone, Mr. Negretti,
and himself met at Stafford-house to consider the
propriety of limiting the General's visit to six or
eight of the principal towns of the kingdom,
affording the remainder an opportunity of pre-
senting addresses to him at those places, if they
should think such a course desirable. The General
replied that it would be impossible for him to draw

a line, and that he would in preference leave Eng-
land at once. That very morning the Duke of
Sutherland, Earl Shaftesbury, Count SAE, General
Eber, Colonel Pesra, Mr. Negretti, Mr. Stansfeld,
and Mr. Humbro had endeavoured to induce the
General to reconsider his determination, but without
any result. Mr.. Negretti, following Mr. Seely,
recounted the fatigues which had been undergone by
the General during his stay in London, and assured
the committee that every effort that might be made
would beuseless. The kindness that had been extended
towards the General was undoubtedly sincere, but
was of to) demonstrative a character for an ir.valid.
After a great deal of angry declamation, the fol-
lowing resolution, moved by Mr, Nicholay, and
seconded by Captain E. Dresser Roger, was unani-
mously carried :
" That it is at this moment very inexpedient, and
in the interests of True liberal principles highly un-
desirable, that General Garibildi should be induced
to leave this country, more pirticulariy as the rea-
sons of his departure aro not fully stated."
After appointing a deputation to visit General
Garibaldi for the purpose of inducing him to post-
pone his return to Caprera, the meeting separated.
