FATAL ACCIDENT TO THE HON. HENRY NELSON.
—A melancholy and fatal accident occurred on Saturday
evening last to the Hon. Henry Nelson, youngest brother
of the Right Hon. Earl Nelson, of Trafalgar House, Down-
ton, Wilts. Mr. Nelson had been taking equestrian exer-
cise, and was in the act of rearming to his residence, Land.
ford House, in the parish of Plaitford, mounted on a very
young horse ; and at the Earldoms turnpike gate, Landlord,
the wife of the gatekeeper endeavoured to hold the horse
whilst Mr. Nelson tightened the girths, but the animal
broke away from her and started off in the direction of
Plaitlotd. Mr. Nelson retained his seat for about half a
mile, but was eventually thrown off and, it is believed,
dragged for some consieerable distance, John Emm, butler
to the Dowager Countess Nelson, who was waiting with
the carriage at the residence of Captain Nelson, was at-
tracted by the galloping of the horse, and on his going into
the road, he discovered the unfertunate gentleman lying in
a state of insensibility. Assistance was procured, and he
was conveyed to Landlord House, where he became con-
scious for a few minutes only. The unfortunate gentleman
rapidly sunk, and died about a quarter past eight o'clock.
An inquest was held on the body at the National School on
Monday evening, before Mr. B. M. Wilson, county coroner,
when it was shown that death had resulted from concussion
of the brain, and a verdict of accidental death was accord-
ingly returned. A large circle of friends have bean placed
in mourning by this suclden bereavement.

Lord Campbell on Mr. Cobden's View of the
Polish Question.

At a public meeting to express the sympathy of the
working classes in favour of Poland held last even,ng, at
the Chelsea Vestry-hall, under tile auspices of the National
League for the Independence of Poland—Mr, Farrell in the
chair,

Lord CAMPBELL said—To me it is, I assure you, a great
privilege to be called upon by the committee to address
you upon the Polish question at a meeting so crowded, so
intelligent, and so unanimous as that assembled hero to-
night. It is true that this meeting has been called together
not by the National Polish League, of which my friend Mr.
Edward Beeles is the president, but exclusively by the
working classes themselves. (Hear, hear.) That circum-
stance is far from demonstrating, as some people would
suppose, the insignificance of the question betore us, and
with your permission I will tell you for what reason. It
shows that the Polish question has now seized upon the
mind of that class which is most numerous, and to which
its numbers must always give power and importance.
(Hear, hear.) In social or domestic questions it may often
happen that the first movement may originate with the
working classes, in consequence of the evils which they
may more acutely feel, and may rise through the middle
classes, until, last of all, after years of agitation and
struggle, they are found triumphant in that class which
influences Parliament and politics. But in foreign quest
tions it is not so ; it most naturally happens that these
questions arise first in that class to whom study and trave
are open, and then descends through the various strata
of society. Therefore, when solicitude as to a foreign ques-
tion is found imbuing the working classes of the nation,
we must believe that it has succeeded in establishing its
sovereignty over the minds of the higher and of the middle
classes of society. (Loud cheers.) So far, therefore, from
the fact of this meeting being convened by the working
classes of the country being a proof of the insignificance of
the Polish question, it is a proof rather that the opinion of
the country has been fully formed upon the matter, and
that the time for action has arrived. (Cheers.) To me it
gives still more gratification to find a demonstration of this
magnitude by the working classes of the country, because
I think it the best and the most effective answer to the
speech of Mr. Cobden that we have lately heard, so far as
it relates to the Polish question, (Loud cheers.) In an
eloquent speech, recently addressed to the inhabitants
of Rochdale, Mr. Cobden, with the view to show that,
although the wrongs of that unhappy c untry are indis-
putable, yet that it is not the proper part of Europe to set
them right, contends that, if left alone, the injustice of
Russia will meet with its own punishment, and, to use his
own words, " that the vices, and weaknesses, and the vir-
tues, and the power of nations were inseparable "—in other
words, that vices always have their own castigation, and
that virtues have their own reward, and that, therefore, it
was not incumbent upon bystanders to interfere to prevent
the one or to encourage the other. If that remark had
fallen from an insignificant person it would scarcely be
worth while to refute it; but coming as it does from the
great apostle of free trade, from a man who has obtained
and deserves the admiration of the country, who, beginning
lowly, has raised himself to the highest station ; and from
a person who is no less esteemed in private life than ap-
plauded in political and public life, it is certainly a remark
that deserves something more than a passing comment.
No doubt we may be able so far to assent to the views of Mr,
Cobden as to admit that crimes upon a large as upon a minor
scale will always have their own retribution—that if suffi-
cient time elapse, if ages are permitted to exhaust them-
selves—the day will come when the misfortunes of St.
Petersburg will balance the calamities of Warsaw, (Loud
and prolonged cheering.) But is this to be an argument
for European silence, for popular indifference, or for the
inaction of the world ? (Cheers.) Are we not to think
upon the calamities—the horrors which must fall upon
individuals between the perpetration of the wrong and
the arrival of the retribution that is to surely follow it ?
(Cheers.) Aro we not to think of the men destroyed, of
the houses outraged, of the women wronged, of the vil-
lages obliterated, of the soil polluted, of the melancholy
capital of Poland transformed into a dungeon from which
the unhappy inmates look to us in Europe as living in some
fal?led region in which air, sunshine, freedom, and tran-
quillity prevail, and in which men are to be pitied only
because they dont understand the horrors they have escaped
and the privileges they enjoy ? (Loud and prolonged cheer-
ing,) If the doctrine advanced by this amiable and high-
minded person were adopted by the Cabinets of Europe—if
countries would not permit themselves to interfere when in-
justice was being committed on such grounds as those ad-
vanced by Mr. Cobden, none at the weaker Powers, such
as Portugal, Belgium, Switzerland, or Denmark—(loud and
prolonged cheers)—could maintain their existence for a
single day against the Powers who are ready and anxious to
absorb them. (Loud cheers.) It it were once to be admitted
that injustice was to be allowed to work its way, and that
no interference should be permitted, and that it we s to be
left to the penalty which future ages might bring, there
would be no end to the wrongs which the strong would
perpetrate on the weak. (Cheers.) But should we even
go so far with Mr. Cobden for a moment as to say that the
injustices and barbarity of Russia, as such, were not to
bring down upon its head the indignation and chastisement
of Europe, we should still have the further question as to
whether it is not the interest of Western Europe that the
flow of Russian tyranny should be made to pause, and that
Poland should bo assisted in establishing her independence.
(Hear, hear.) The principal Western Powers are France
and England; and let us look at what is their interest in
the matter. At the present time France relies upon the
alliance of this country, but circumstances may arise when
the friendly relations between these countries may be
altered. That alliance must not be counted upon by
France as a thing that will be always in existence.
France and Russia both aim at supremacy in the Mediter-
ranean Sea, therefore there can be no true and lasting alli-
ance between those Powers, Supposing a collision to arise
—as it may do at any time, and has occurred within the
last 10 years—France, who may not then possess that firm
friendship in which this country now held her, must rely
for assistance upon the German Powers, (Hear, hear),
Now, so long as Russia holds Poland, and so influences
Prussia and Austria, how can France hope to attract to-
wards herself the alliance of those countries ? (Loud
cheers. Therefore, so far as France is concerned, it is
essential for her to preserve the liberty of Poland. (Cheers).
Now lot us look at our own position in the matter. The
objects of Great Britain and Russia are altogether incom..
patible. (Cheers.) Great Britain desires to maintain the
independence of Constantinople, and to uphold the Turkish
empire as it now exists, while Russia is desirous of ex-
tending her dominions at the expense of that Power. The
objects of Great Britain and Russia upon this point are
therefore diametrically opposed. (Cheers.) Now, Great
Britain without France must also look to Germany, but
must look in vain so long as Russia is able to trample upon
Berlin and Vienna. (Loud cheers.) Therefore, even if
vice ought to be left to its own punishment, and even if we
could consent without remonstrance to see a people cruelly
tortured and crushed out of existence, still policy would
command the Western Powers to maintain the activity
which they have as yet devoted to the Polish question.
(Loud cheers.) They have already embarked upon their
course, and what can now restrain them from pursuing it?
(Hear, hear.) It is not the fear of Russia which will restrain
them, because, within the memory of the youngest person
present, Russia has shown her inability to resist the
Western Powers; it is not a regard of treaties which can
restrain them, because it has been explained that all those
treaties by which Russia claims right over Poland have
been trampled down and violated, and, in Earl Russell's
words, Russia has forfeited all right to supremacy in
Poland. To what, therefore, can the inaction bo traced ?
To nothing except to the want of the expression of popular
opinion and enthusiast=—a want which you have assembled
here to-night to meet. (Loud cheers.) It' that expression
of opinion and enthusiasm is withheld, nothing will be
done, and there will be no want of plausible arguments
for standing still, (Hear, hear.) But if the voice of the
country makes itself' heard, if statesmen are convinced
that they will be supported by the opinion of the people,
if they act according to their convictions, then there need
be no fear for the result, and Poland will be free. (Loud
cheering.) That voice you are now raising, and that sup-
port you are now offering, and the effect of what you are
now doing will be felt hereafter throughout distant ages,
as well as at the present moment, (Loud cheers.) I call
upon the meeting, therefore, to pledge itself to support the
Government of the day in any endeavour it may make for
securing Polish independence. _ _ _

The speaker sat down amid prolonged cheering.

THE CRAWLEY COURT-MARTIAL,

(FROM OUR OWN REPORTER).

TWELFTH DAY.
[The following appeared in the Third Edition of " Thy
Sun" of last evening]

ALDERSHOT, Tuesday.
The Court met this morning at half-past 10 o'clock, the
same members being present as yesterday,
On the opening of the court,
Colonel Sir A. Horsford said he should suggest for the
consideration of the prisoner whether he would not pi oceed
,vith the cross-examination of the sergeant and sentries at
once, as they were called by the prosecution without any
other view than their being examined by the court and the

prisoner.
Colonel Crawley should be glad to adopt the sugges-
tion of the prosecutor, and examine the sentries, but in
respect to any other witnesses he should ask for the same
indulgence he had hitherto received, and postpone their
cross-examination till the day after their examination in
chief. He also begged leave to state that in reply to the
application he had made iu respect to the production of the
letter from his Royal Highness the Duae of Cambridge to
Colomel Shute, referred to in yesterday's evidence, he had
been informed that it would be sent to the prosecutor. He
inquired if that had been done, and whether he would pro •
duce it ?
Colonel Sir A. Horsford said that he had read the letter
in question this morning, but it was still under the consi•
deration of the Court whether it would be necessary to
produce it.

was it that you visited the sentries on the
9th of May ?
About ten o'clock at night.
Did you see Mrs. Lidey ou that occasion ?--No.
Describe what the proper position of the sen-
try was on the model?—ln the centre of that room
(pointing out the position on the model). He walked
from the door of the servant's room in No. 2, to the door of
No. 4 room.
Colonel Pipon—Let me hear exactly, describing by the
model, the proper walk and post of the sentry 2—Between
the door of the office and the door of the largg outer room.
Did you ever see the sentry nearer the door of the bed-
room than the centre of the office-room ?—Never.
Did you visit the sentry next day 2—Yes.
Where was Sergeant Major Lilley and where was the
sentry 2—He was at the outer door of the servants' room
with the sentry behind him. He was at the door looking
towards the barracks.
Was the office room employed by Sergeant Major Lilley
as an office, and did the orderly sergeant go there with
these states at an early hour of the morning?--Yes, and
the orderly sergeants used to call there at all hours, at 2 or
3 o'clock in the morning.
You are now speaking of the room where the sentries
were posted 2—Yes.
Sergeant Eleser Eland, of the 6th Dragoons, sworn.
Examined by Colonel Sir A. Hereford—l was on duty
while Sergeant Major Lilley was under arrest. I mounted
guard on the 27th of April, 1862, and on the 21st of May,
1862. I recollect the orders I took over about the sea.
tries. On the 27th of April the sentry was to take
charge of the prisoner, to allow no communication to take
place between anyone outside and the prisoner, and the
native servant was to be searched on guiug in and com-

ing out.
By Colonel Pipon—These were the orders when I
mounted guard. On the 28th of April I received fresh
orders. On the morning of the 28th Sergeant Major
Cotton brought a fresh order to the guard room. I cannot
state the order, it was written ; it was to the effect that the
sentry was to be placed in Sergeant Major Lilley's bunga-
low in his quarters. 1 accordingly placed the sentry inside
the bungalow myself.
What were the orders on the 21st of May ?—Between the
28th of April and the 21st of May the sergeant major had
been shifted into different quarters. The orders were simi-
lar to those given in regard to the former eungalow, only
that Sergeant Major Lilley had permission to sleep in the
verandah.
Witness continued—On the 28th of April ho posted the
sentry in the little room, No. 4. In the second bungalow
the sentry was posted in the verandah, and the sergeant
major slept under the window of the small room, No. 2.
He always considered Sergeant Major Lilley a steady, sober,
upright man.
By Colonel Crawley—The order ho received on the 28th
of April was from Sergeant Major Cotton in writing.
Neither Lieutenant Fitzsimons nor Sergeant Major Cotton
went with him when the change of sentries was made on
the 28th of April. The orders did not state where it was
that the sentry was to be placed; so he placed him in No. 4
room. It was left to his discretion. On the 2d of May, about
noon, he again visited the sentry. Sergeant Major Lilley
was sitting in an easy chair just outside the door of his
room, No. 1 room. Ile never received any complaints
from Sergeant Major or Mrs. Lilley.
Colonel Crawley handed in a written protest against the
nature of the evidence in chief of the last witness.
Corporal Win. Parr, of the 6th Dragoons, examined by
Sir A, Horsford—said he had been eight years and eleven
months in the regiment. He considered that Sergeant
Major Lilley bore a very good character. He (witness) was
on duty during the time of Sergeant Major Lilley's arrest.
He was on duty about 20 minutes before 12 ,on the
night of the Ist of May. He was the guard of the night.
He posted the sentry in No. 4 room, in the centre of the
small room. He posted the sentry inside because he was
informed that there was a corporal under arrest for not
having placed the sentry inside. It was Corporal Blake.
By Colonel Crawley—He relieved Corporal Blake when
he was arrested on the night of the Ist of May, The sen-
tries had orders no t to lose sight of the prisoner except
when he went into Mrs. Lilley's bedroom. According to
the orders he received he thought No. 4 was the proper
room for the sentries. He did not see the sentry when he
placed the sentry over him at night. The door was shut
and the sentry wished to be certified that the sergeant major
was there. Witness then called to the sergeant major who
answered him, and he told the sentry that he was there.
It was the room on the right of No. 2 (pointing to the mo-
del) that the voice came from. No complaints were ever
made to him by Sergeant Major or Mrs. Lilley.
Corporal James Barry, of the Gth Dragoons, said he had
been nine years and four months in the regiment. Ser
Major Lilley's character was that of a sober, steady
man,
He was on duty twice during the arrest, on both occasions
in the bungalow in which he died. Te the best of his re-
collection, it was on the 17th or 18th of May, and againtioonn
the 22d. The sentry was not to allow any
communhicae
with the prisoner except by the native servant anddt
