WELLINGTON AND SOU-LT
WITH MEMOIRS' AND FAC-SIMILES OF THEIR HAND-
WRITLN-GS.
A PORTRAIT OF
THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON,

TOGETHER WITH
THE MOST

nificant circumstances, the fact which every succes-
sive year had, for a considerable time peat, been ren-
dering more and more perceptible—namely, that the
military labours of the departed were as inoperative
towards the end proposed as they were, undoubtedly,
productive of expanse to the country, or of glory to
himself and his companions in arms. Thirty-seven years
have elapsed since the crowning victory of Waterloo
—or as our neighbours are accustomed to term it—
cette funeste et glorieuse jour de Mont Saint Jean—
and the gold and the blood squandered by England
in dictating to France who should be her Sovereign,
have been lavished to no other purpose than to enable
the vanquished race to avenge in a brilliant and
almost miraculous manner their political misfortunes
and their national vicissitudes. The effete family of
the Bourbons, after being dragged back by foreign
armies to their throne in the Tuileries over half a
million of the dead bodies of their fellow-countrymen,
have been ignominiously expelled beyond the fron-
tiers which their selfish policy had caused to be dese-
crated with a view to merely their own personal ag-
grandizement. This treatment of the house of
CAPET, moreover, has by no means been restricted to
the elder branch. It has been impartially extended also
to the younger—not, however, until after an
extraordinary instance of domestic turpitude had been
manifested—the son of that Egalite wbo bad covered
his name with indelible infamy by voting for the
death of Louis XVI., having " stolen the precious
diadem" from the false-spoken tyrant CHARLES X.
and " put it in his pocket," under cover of the mean
and swindling trick of a hackney stock-jobber!
After the Elder and the Younger Branch of the
Bourbons had thus disgraced the royal office to

whichthat sruednddee
popular feeling inthenredexpl
of Vienna so much mere waste paper, torn into frag-
ments and trampled into the dust by the leaders of
a revolution. The Duke of WELLINGTON became
conscious, moreover, that in other respects, before
the hour of his death arrived, the battle of Wa-
terloo was fruitless of any of the grand
results intended by the councils of the Allied So-
vereigns. He perceived that after a little more than a
quarter of a century had elapsed the great name of
NAPOLEON was more than ever invested with an in-
destructable and magical popularity ! !And this in
spite of the treachery of MARMONT in 1814, and the
treachery of FoucHE in 1815, in spite of the capitu-
lation of Paris and of the captivity of St. Helena !
CHATEAUBRIAND had said, even at the time when his
noble intellect was most infatuated for the Bourbons,
and most prejudiced against the Bonapartes, that it
was only necessary to raise a grey great-coat and a
three-cornered hat at the end of a pole in any part of
the French provinces in order to create a rising o
the whole population. The Duke of WELLINGTON
had lived long enough to witness that strange predic-
tion strong as coming from the lips of the
apologist of the house of CADET, and of the
traducer of the house of NAPOLEON—singularly and
signally verified. He had survived sufficiently to
behold, as it were, in the villages of France a thou-
sand vignette illustrations of the beautiful ballad of
BEL:INGER—

" On parlera de so gloire
Sous le chaume bien longtentps:
L'humble toit dans cinquante ans
Ne eonnaitra pas d'autre histoire."

It is that reflection more than almost any other which
forces itself upon the consideration of the more reflec-
tive—whether in France or in England—at the pre-
sent moment, when we find ourselves standing upon
the brink of that grave which is about to close over
the remains of the Duke of WELLINGTON. It is a
reflection the force of which must be recognised not
less by the systematic enemies than by the sincere
admirers of his Highness the PRINCE-PRESIDENT.
For the election of that personage to the chief
magistracy of the French Republic must be acknow-
ledged on all hands to be a tribute of homage, of
gratitude, and of devotion offered by thirty-five
millions to the memory of the defeated of Waterloo and
of the captive of St. Helena. This circumstance before
the close of his prolonged existence must have forced
itself, we doubt not, somewhat painfully upon the re-
cognition of the calm and severe judgment of
ARTHUR, Duke of Wellington. Thus has it come to
pass that even within the lifetime of our great Cap-
tain, the exertions of the despots of Christendom have
proved futile in strangling the will of a great people,
those exertions which were only rendered even for a
while triumphant through the aid strangely afforded
to the coalition by the English Government—the aid
oe nearly 800,000,0001. expended by Mr. PITT,
and of so many remarkable victories achieved
by the redoubtable sword of the Duke
of WELLINGTON. Upon the future annalist—
may we not venture to assert, with implicit confidence
i❑ the serene impartiality of his judgment, upon Sir
ARCHIBALD ALISON in the continuation of his
"History of Modern Europe ?"—will devolve the duty
of deducing yet more clearly from these events the
moral which we have here dared to intimate by anti-
cipation. Whatever may be the secret and selfish
promptings of our national interest—So may it ever
be with those who would presume to tamper with the
liberties of a great people, endeavouring to thrust
back upon an unwilling race a monarchy supported
only by foreign bayonets and to subvert the rights of
an isolated community with the banded armies of an
entire continent I

Within the last five or six years a great revolution
has taken place in Ireland. In 1846, when the staple
food of that country was swept away by a disease
which destroyed it and left a large population to
famine, that revolution commenced. Emigration im-
mediately, and as if of necessity, was resorted to, for
though the Celt much loves his native land, the love
of life was stronger, and Ireland was abandoned by
thousands and tens of thousands of her inhabitants
when they found that if they remained it would be
with Famine staring them in the face. The
agrarian links were snapped, and far lands were
resorted to, with the prospect of comfortable
existence there. It is an ascertained fact,
(Published under Parliamentary authority) that from
18
441 to 1851 the population of Ireland had sustained
a I,2eBc9rease of 1,659,330, and that, in the same decade,
,133 persons, or more than three-fourths of this
decrease, bad been
lost to Ireland by emigration.

tural population of Ireland runs a fair chance, if
emigration proceeds at this rate, of being entirely
swept away in a few years. It may be
worth while to add, that the remittances from North
America to Ireland, to defray the passage-money of
relatives and friends, was 990,000/. in. 1851. This is
money saved from hard labour, not gained in any
lottery of luck at the gold mines, and devoted by
honest Industry to the cause of Affection. It com-
pletely, because practically, gives the lie to the oft-
repeated slander which accuses the poorer Irish of
wanting an aptitude for labour. On the contrary, no
people work so hard, where they find their work paid
for, and to send over nearly One Million sterling,
to help others to emigrate, shows prudential
principles'and practice of no ordinary character. The
Colonial Land and Emigration Commil:sioners, who
bad ~,,
gnizance of and reported on this fact, further
declare
a that these remittances are made out of the
poor .irish emigrants' -
^ .
first savings. Such has been
the providence (born
the eel &exiled Irish
of deep affection, if you will,) of
, whom certain writers systema-
tically delight to libel as " imbruted," "idle,"
and "careless:'
e have yet to learn that
emigrant Englishmen have remitted their sa-
vings to relations and
friends in anything
like the same ratio. In fact, when in Ire-
land, where his toil is ill-requited,
or gees to swell
the fortunes of the absentee and the middleman, there
is a sort of hopelessness in vork, Out of Ireland, +

and particularly in North America, where toil is
much required and well requitted, the Irish emigrant
feels himself in a new and much improved condi-
tion ; he has broken the chain of circumstance and
situation ; he has advanced into the citizenship of ;
property, for his hands supply more than his humble
necessities require ; he has achieved, far away, what
was intangible in his native land, a recognition of
the Dignity of Labour.
This question has attracted the attention of the sta-
tistical section of the British Association, at Belfast,
The statements we have here given were referred to,
with a view to consider not only the excessive Emigra-
tion from Ireland, but the reparative agencies
in progress in that country. Mr. LOCKE, who
appears to have closely studied the rationale of the
question, states these agencies to be—" Ist, the general
progress of the people, industrial education and
social ; 2d, a well-defined law of tenure, worked out
in the spirit of its intention by the mutual good feel-
ings and good sense of landlords and tenants ; and
idly, the improvement of the labouring clas9es, in-
cluding cottiers and small farmers, whose profits or
wages have been hitherto insufficient fur decent main-
tenance." lie said,—" Now, the first-mentioned is
abundantly manifest in the decrease of crime, and the
increase of agricultural improvement and general en-
terprise throughout the country. Of the second, we
may entertain a well-grounded expectation, the
matter being in competent and zealous hands. And
the diminution of Poor-law taxation, and the substi-
tution of independent capitalists for distressed or in-
solvent landed proprietors, who were unhappily inca-
pacitated from fulfilling the responsibilities of their
position, afford strong warranty for the improvement
of the labouring classe, which is indeed already felt
in the rise of wages, and progress of industry in all
its departments, agricultural, manufacturing, and
commercial."—The agency here alluded to is
the Act for the Sale of Encumbered Estates—a
measure which, with some partial evil, has been pro-
ductive of great good. As OLIVER CROMWELL said
of the execution of CHARLES STUART, "it was a fatal
necessity," arising out of circumstances which.legis-
lative wisdom could neither anticipate nor control.
By means of it the number of proprietors of land in
Ireland has been more than trebled—over one million
acres, or one-twentieth of the surface of Ireland (ex-
clusive of water), has changed hands ; upwards of
7,000,0001. has been produced by the sales, and (in-
eluding 1,000,0001. to encumbrancers who became
buyers) over 4,000,0001., or nearly two-thirds of the
produce of the sales, have been distributed, throwing
this vast amount into quickened circulation. Best of all,
two-thirds of the purchasers have given 2,0001. and
under• for their lots, thus making an agricultural
middle class—one of the great necessities of Ireland•
If anything will put an end, legitimately, to the emi-
gration which depopulates Ireland, it is this. Capital
is, even now, in course of being introduced into Ire-
land—probably between three or four millions ster-
ling, or about half what has been got in from the
sales of encumbered estates. A new class of pea-
santry will be created, and we shall hear, no further,
of a day's labour for fourpence or sixpence. The
better days of Ireland are commencing.

Amongst the freaks of Irish Members it is really
almost amusing to find some seventeen of them (a
kind of postscript to the Tenant Leaguers)
actually
banding together in behalf of Religious Equality.
Amongst the names we see, indeed, that of Mr.
SHARMA.N CRAWFORD, whose consistency nn this
subject none could impugn ; but to read over a list of
intemperate or zealous Catholics, and to learn that
they have enrolled themselves as friends of Religious
Equality—risum teneatis amici ? What evidence
have they ever given that they really wish for it ?
Have they hitherto co-operated with societies or indi-
viduals who have simply and honestly sought that
object ? There is an Anti-State Church Society, to
which all its honourable opponents give the full credit
of singleness of purpose and intelligent action, how-
ever much they object to its principles. Has it ever
been aided by Roman Catholic gold or influence ?
Other Christian denominations, we believe even
Catholics themselves, have, by memorials and resolu-
tions, and even deputations, endeavoured to awaken
their co-religionists in the United States to a sense of
the incompatibility between their common faith and
the horrors of negro slavery. They have thus shown
that a Christian community in one country might,
and ought to, expostulate with a kindred community
in another country, on conduct discreditable to their
Christian name. What have Catholics done in this
way ? What medialized Italian Prince, what Pope,
what Jesuit-governed Emperor has ever heard the
voice of English, much less of Irish, Catholics re-
monstrating on the religious inequalities in their re-
spective domains ? Special occasions have not been
wanting. We have lately seen Protestant mis-
sionaries to Jews ejected from Hungary, it being
deemed better Jews should continue Jews than be-
come Protestant Christians; and just now a consider-
able number of Bibles are being sent back by the
Austrian Government. Last year an Italian Noble,
Count GUICCIARDINI, was banished for merely read-
ing the Bible with some friends in his own house ;
and two excellent persons, the MADIAIS, man and
wife, have just begun a severe separate imprisonment
of five years, simply and merely for becoming con-
verts to the Protestant faith by reading the Bible
a deed which has justly called forth the indignant
remonstrance of the representative of the Prussian
Government! What Catholic remonstrance has
been beard from Britain ? Had the late Synods
no interest in vindicating their common faith from
such scandals as these ? Was it more important to
attack the Queen's Colleges in Ireland, and to des-
cant on the dangerous allurements of Protestant
education in England, than to rescue the Catholic
name from the odium of revolting persecutions in its
head-quarters ? Or do Catholics expect we should
commiserate their pangs under the denial of
English territorial titles, while they are insensible to
Protestant sufferings under banishment, and the
most harsh species of imprisonment? They will
allege, perhaps, that they have no power over foreign
Governments. But have they no influence with
them ? Lord PALMERSTON had no power over the
Senate of Hamburgh, yet he remonstrated, and with
complete success too, on the inconsistency of a Pro-
testant Government imprisoning their fellow-Pro•
testant, the Baptist ONEKEN. Are we to believe
that what he readily obtained on behalf of a member
of a comparatively obscure sect could be in no de-
gree obtained by the Catholics of Great Britain on
behalf of those who compose the vast majority of the
population amid which they dwell ? Would a vigor-
ous representation to the POPE, that here Catholics
can erect a cathedral if they please, in full view of
any Protestant one, not obtain for Protestants in
Rome something better than permission to worship
over a pigstye, and outside the gates ? Or, if his
HOLINESS were earnestly reminded that here Catho-
lics were at full liberty to seduce to their ranks any
class of her MAJESTY'S subjects, young ladies, and
Oxford doctors—curates, and archbishops too, if
they liked, would it in no way movehim to tolerate
seduction to Protestantism in his own dominions;
and also to read a lesson of the same purport to his
beloved cousins,
who govern as Catholic Princes ?
Seriously, while the head-quarters of Catholicism
and all its subordinate agencies maintain a system of
such hateful
intolerance and cruelty towards Pro-
testants ; while
the sight of Protestant liberality
neither shames
nor softens them into the slightest re-
ciprocity ; and While

MADAME VESTRIS.—Irt contradiction of a para-
graph which is making the rounds of the press, regarding
the " serious indisposition" of this great public favourite, it
affords us much gratification to state, on most unquestion-
able authority, that she is at the present moment in Lon-
don, in the enjoyment of most excellent health and spirits,
preparing for the coming campaign, which is appoiated to

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The approach of the Presidential train to Lyons,
on Monday last, was announced by a salute of 104
guns, fired at the same time from all the forts. This
formidable detonation seemed to shake the whole city,
and the colours on the various buildings were visibly
agitated. An immense population was assembled
the whole way from the vicinity of the railway station
to the hotel of the Prefecture, where Louis NAPO-
LEON was to alight. As soon as the PRINCE left the
railway carriage, M. BRET, the Prefect cf the Rhone,
came forward at the head of the mayors and muni-
cipal council, and presented to him the keys of the
town on a golden salver, at the same time addressing
him as follows : _ _

'• Monseigueur,—l have the honour to present to your
Imperial Highness the keys of this town, the same that
were presented to the Emperor. The inhabitants will
be most happy to prove to you their cordial sentiments
and devotedness to your cause."

The PRINCE replied that he was happy to again
visit a city which had given so noble and so memo-
rable a reception to the EMPEROR, and that he was
much pleased with the favourable sentiments ex-
pressed towards him. LOUIS NAPOLEON then mounted
on horseback, wearing the uniform of a general of
division ; General DE ST. ARNAUD and General De.
CASTELLANE were at his sides, but a little behind. A
detachment of mounted gendarmery and of the Ist
dragoons opened the cortege, then came the PRINCE
with his splendid staff, and then in carriages a num-
ber of foreign officers, amongst whom were General
DE LA MAamouA, the Sardinian Minister of War, the
Ministers, and other high functionaries. The crowd
was something extraordinary, and the cries of " Viva
Napoleon !" and " Vive l'Empereur r incessant.
The whole passage from the railway to the prefec-
ture lasted upwards of an hour, the weather being
most favourable then and during the whole day.
At half-past four the official receptions took place,
and at five the PRINCE went to the archiepiscopal
palace, where he was received by the Archbishop, to
witness the regatta on the Saone.
At six o'clock the PRINCE assembled at his table
the Cardinal Count DE LA MARMORA, the Envoy of
the King of SARDINIA, M. PALEOCAPA, the Minister
of Public Works at Turin, and a great number of
functionaries and personages of note of Lyons. At
eight o'clock a display of fireworks, representing a
volcanic eruption, was given at Fourrieres. At half-
past nine the PRINCE proceeded through an immense
crowd crying " Viva l'Empereur !" to the ball at the
theatre, where the principal inhabitants were assem-
bled. His Highness was greeted with the warmest
acclamations. He danced a quadrille with Mdlle.
BRET, the daughter of the Prefect, their vis• a-vis
being the Prefect and Mine. Monis, the wife of the
General of Division. His Highness afterwards went
round the ball-room, the appearance of which was
really enchanting. His Highness withdrew at eleven
o'clock, followed by cries of " Vive Napoleon ! Viva
rEmpereur !" a thousand times repeated. His car-
riage, followed by an immense crowd, proceeded at a
footpace to the Prefecture. The weather was de-
lightful the whole day, and no incident occurred to
mar the proceedings
On the following day at eleven o'clock the PRINCE
got on horseback, and, followed by his staff, proceeded
to the Place Bellecour to pass in review the army of
Lyons. This review took place in the midst of an
immense concourse of the population, and with re-
peated cries of " Vive Napoleon !" An estrade was
prepared for the authorities, and the filing-off was
effected with the most enthusiastic acclamations. The
PRINCE then proceeded to the Place Napoleon along
the Rue Bourbon, all the houses of which were
dressed out with garlands and flags, the windows
being occupied by ladies, who flung down flowers,
and joined their voices to those of the crowd in the
cry of " Vive l'Empereur 1" At the moment when
the PRINCE arrived on the Place, the statue of the
Emperor was uncovered to the noise of cannons, mili-
tary music, and the singing of 800 children belong-
ing to the public schools. Col. DUHAMEL pronounced
a short address to his Highness, who replied in the
following speech

" Lyonese,—Your city was always associated by re-
markable incidents with the different phases in the life of
the Emperor. You saluted him as Consul when he went
beyond the mountains to gather fresh laurels; you after-
wards saluted him as all powerful Emperor; and lastly,
when Europe had banished him to an island, you were
among the first in 1815 to again salute him as Em-
peror.
" Now your city is the first to raise a statue to his
memory. This fact is a significant one. Equestrian
statues are only erected to sovereigns who have reigned;
thus the Governments which have preceded me have al-
ways refused this homage to a power, the legitimacy of
which they would not admit.
" And yet who was more legitimate than the Emperor?
elected three times by the people, crowned by the Head
of the Church, recognised by all the continental powers
of Europe, who allied themselves to him both by bonds
of a political nature and by those of blood?
" The Emperor was the mediator between two con-
flicting ages; he destroyed the old regime in re-estab-
lishing all that was guod in it, and he destroyed the re-
volutionary spirit by everywhere causing the benefits of
the revolution to triumph ; that is the reason why they
who overthrew him soon had to deplore their triumph;
as to those who defended him, it is unnecessary for me
to remind you how much they have wept over his fall.
" And so it was, that es soon as the people saw them-
selves of liberty to make their choice they cast their
eyes on the heir of Napoleon, and for the same reason,
from Paris to Lyons, on every point of my passage, a
unanimous cry of Vive l'Empereur' has been raised.
But in my eyes this cry is much more a souvenir which
touches my heart than a hope which flatters my pride.
" Faithful servant of the nation, 1 never shall have
but one object, and that is to reecnstitute in this great
country, so convulsed by so many commotions and
utopian schemes, a peace based on conciliation for men,
inflexibility as to the principles of authority, love for the
labouring classes, and national dignity.
" We have but just extricated ourselves from those
moments of crisis where, in consequence of notions of
good and evil being confounded together, the best minds
have been perverted. Prudence and patriotism demand
that, at such times, the nation should reflect before it
decides on its destinies; and it is yet difficult for me to
know under what name I can render the greatest ser-
vices.
" If the modest title of President could facilitate the
mission confided to me, and before which I have never
held back, it is not I, who from personal interest, would
desire to change that name for the title of Emperor.
" Let us then lay on that stone our homage to a great
man; and, in doing so, we shall honour at the same time
the glory of France and the generous gratitude of the
people; that act will also testify the fidelity of the peo-
ple of Lyons to immortal souvenirs."
The speech was received with the most enthusiastic
applause, and with cries a thousand times repeated,
of " Vive l'Empereur."
The following is the latest telegraphio dispatch re-
ceived by the Government
Lyons, Sept. 20, Six in the Evening.
"The Prince has just returned from the port of La
Vitriolerie. In returning, as in going, the population
thronged in his passage and cheered him loudly. After
a conference with the engineers of the Rhone and of the
railways, his Highness got into his carriage and pro-
ceeded to the Palace of the Arts, where an exhibition of
the horticultural produce of Lyons was laid out. In
going through the Rue Centrale, the Prince received
from an immense population a reception of the most
cordial description, the cry of 'Viva I'Empereur!' pre-
ceding and following him to the Palace of St. Pierre, and
being redoubled on the Place des Terreaux. The women
flung flowers from the windows, and the carriage of the
Prince was literally covered with them. His Highness
went through every part of the exhibition, and after-
wards addressed to the horticulturists his felicitations on
what ho beheld. They, in their turn, testified to him
the liveliest expression of their gratitude. The Prince
returned to the prefecture along the quays of the Saone,
where an immense crowd was collected. Here, also,
houses were dressed out, flowers were flung down from
the windows, and the air resounded with the cry of
Vivo l'Empereur !'
A decree in the lioniteur of the date of the 14th
puts a duty of 30 centimes the 100 kilogrammes on
the Belgian coal imported in the zone comprised be-
tween Haltein and LongwY, and five francs the 100
kilogrammes on metals in the raw state imported from
Blancmisseron to Longwy. A note in the Sloniteur
