THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 3, 1865.

GREAT ST. JAMES'S HALL.—Welcome to
the WIZARD of the ICORTII. Crowded Houses.
3: ktnificent spectacle. Great success of Frederic (the Great).

highest cultivation as the students of any college or uni-
versity. (Cheers.) And in this college there were none of
those sectarian influences which had so much hindered edu-
cation in this country. When the institution was founded its
originators came forward with no shame and no conceal-
ment. They told the working men that they believed there
could be no good college life, no good national life, no good
family life, that was not based upon a true theology, but
from that day to this every man entered the college without
question. Ile had been taught by those who had strong
beliefs on these subjects, but his own inner life had not
been interfered with. By the success which the college had
experienced they had been able to show to the country a
place where the belief of every man was respected and
cherished, whore men of every church and sect in the country
could come together, and where they had been able to work
out a great educational movement for one common end with-
out ever feeling their differences a hindrance to them, or a
hindrance to the work they were about. (Cheers.) To this
fact he attributed the support which he had received in
the late contest in Lambeth from 'persons of all religious
denominations. Now that he had been returned to Parlia-
ment, no effort of his should be wanting to do the work
of a representative in the manner in which he thought it
ought to be done. He sincerely hoped that he should be
able to take such a part in the debates in Parliament and
in the work of legislation as would be beneficial to the
country at large, and as would lead to set right some of
those industrial and social questions which still required
attention. (Cheers.)
Mr. LLOYD JONES then moved " That we hereby offer our
sincere thanks to Mr. Hughes's committee, and to the elec-
tors of Lambeth, for their exertions on his behalf, and
that we also thank those working men who have so mate-
rially aided Mr. Hughes's return." (Cheers.)
Mr. LAYARD, M.P., on-vi,s'ag to second the motion, was
received with loud cheers. lie said there were some remarks
which fell from the distinguished principal of the college
in which he heartily agreed. Of course he coincided with
him in the opinion that at last the metropolitan boroughs
were doing justice to themselves. (Laughter.) The princi-
pal told them that not many months ago the argument was
constantly urged that unless they had what were commonly
called "rotten," or to use a more polite phrase, "nomina-
tion," boroughs restored, they could not have men in Par-
liament, men of capacity, of literary acquirements, or of
those talents which rendered them fit representatives of the
country. But who were the principal supporters of that
argument? They were chiefly those who voted against the
very persons who they said would be excluded from Par-
liament if it were not for rotten boroughs. He should like
some of those who were fond of statistics to get hold of
the Westminster polling books. He should like to see
who voted for Mr. Mill and who voted for Mr. Smith.
(Cheers.) He had nothing to say against Mr. Smith.
He believed him to be an honest, respectable individual.
His chief claim to represent the borough of Westminster
was that he had made a great deal of money by selling
books. Now he (Mr. Layard) was one of those who
were writers of books, and he thought it was the writer
who ought to make the money, and not the seller. (Laugh-
ter and cheers.) That did not appear to be the opinion of
a large portion of his fellow-countrymen, but, at the same
time, he should like to know who in the borough of West-
minster voted for the seller of books, and who forthe writer
of books. (Cheers.) Who voted for the man of intellect,
and who for the man who made his profits out of that in-
tellect ? Who voted for the man who they said could not
be sent to Parlfament unless rotten boroughs existed, and
who for the one who would be excluded from Parliament

support of the working men to an extent be could scarcely
bring himself to believe ho deserved, and for which he felt
the deepest gratitude. He would not say that he had done
his duty since be had been returned, but he could consci-
entiously say that he had done his best to do so, and he
believed the electors thought so, for this year they had re-
elected him without opposition, thus swing him great
trouble and expense. (Cheers.) Ho hoped that his friends
next door in Lambeth would show the same consideration
on future occasions to Mr. Hughes. He thought the people
of Lambeth had done well in the selection they had made.
They had returned a man who would deservedly repre-
sent them, and who would be able in the House of Com-
mons to speak with authority in the name of the working
men. (Cheers.) He (Mr. Layard) had a great feeling of gra-
titude towards working men. He know they were a gener-
ous, noble-hearted class; although, at the same time, he
thought they were very much like children in some re-
spects, and that the innocence of character which they pos-
sessed very often exposed them to be led away. He, there-
fore, thought it was a good thing that sound men and men
of judgment should be intimately acquainted with them.
The working men of the country had made many mis-
takes, but they were mistakes which were made almost
entirely from goodness of heart—from a desire to do right,
but from an ignorance of the way to do it. For instance,
with regard to benefit societies, they had failed because
they did not understand the simple principles of political
economy. They had acted With the best intentions, but
upon false principles. When they were told that they were
wrong they thought the advice they received came merely
from the enemies of the working men. What they required
was some one possessing their confidence to tell them that
their principles were good, but that their mode of carrying
them out was wrong. They wanted some one to go and
talk to them in a manner and in a spirit that would tend to
bind more closely together the ties between the two classes,
and that was why he wished to see such men as Mr.
Hughes in Parliament. (Loud cheers.)
The motion was unanimously agreed to.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

BRIGHTON RACES.-WEDNESDAY.

The great attraction of the second day was the Gold
Cup, value £4OO, which the well-judging liberality of the
Race Committee had offered this year with a view of at-
tracting
.a superior class of animal, and obviating the
walks-over which have on more than one occasion spoilt
the sport. They have been rewarded for their efforts by an
entry superior to that of past years. The names of Ely,
Cambuscan, Londgdown, Sydmonton, and Caller Ou pro-
mised an exciting contest, and though the result was
more hollow than was expected, yet the interest taken in
it by all classes will make the event a memorable one.
A great deal of time, one hour and a quarter, was wasted
over the Sussex Stakes, an unimportant selling race, from
repeated breaks away, and it was not till Admiral Rous
rode down to the post that the lot wore got into order and
despatched. We hope to see the day when half-mile races
shall be abolished by (Turf) Act of Parliament.
All the horses we have mentioned above, with the excep-
tion of Longdown and the addition of Union Jack and Red-
mire, came to the post just asa sharp shower kindly ceased
its downpour. Union Jack made the most of the running,
Ely and Cambuscan lying third and fourth till about half a
mile from home, when Custance let the former out, and
the gallant son of Kingston, passing his horses ono by one,
Caller Ou being the last to give in, won without being
called upon by eight lengths. This with the steadying
weight of 9st 101 b, giving 101 b to Cambuscan and 81b to
Caller Ou, was of course a first-rate performance, and there
seems no reason to doubt that this great horse will prove
indifferent to weight over the Cup courses of York and
Doncaster.

if we had large constituencies ? (Cheers.) He thought
they would find—it was the- working man who voted for
Mr. Mill, while those who had an interest in rotten
boroughs voted for Mr. Smith. (Cheers.) That was a
pretty good test of the utility of rotten boroughs, and was
a good refutation of the argument that unless we had rotten
boroughs we should not have men of intellect in Parlia-
ment. The working men had played a large part in the late
elections for the metropolis. He was one of those who had
always advocated the extension of the suffrage—not one of
those fancy, or what were now called "lateral" extensions
—(laughter)—but a real downward extension of the suf-
frage. (Cheers.) Yet if they had that terrible £6 suffrage,
which appeared to frighten some of his friends out of their
wits—if they had any to be frightened out of—he did not
think it would admit a largo number of working men in
the metropolis to the suffrage. Of course it would be dif-
.ferent in the country, but in Southwarli, for instance, it
would not make a great difference in the working men
who would possess votes. Quite certain ho was, and he
hoped he should not be considered vain for saying
so, that it would not make a change in the representa-
tives they sent to Parliament. (Laughter and cheers.)
He did not believe that ho was a formidable democrat,
although he was what was-some time ago (the word seemed
now to be dying out) called a radical. But he had more
than once stood for large constituencies, and ho had always
had the earnest, sincere, and independent support of the
working men. He had had the honour of fighting a con-
test at York, and a very hard contest it was, because there
were very powerful families, the Lowthers and others, who
had been connected with the county for many centuries,
and who enjoyed an amount of influence against which it
was difficult to contend. He was not successful, although
well up on the poll, but he owed all the support he got
there almost exclusively to working men. He should never
forget what they did for him. Mr. Potter, a working man
on the railway, formed a committee, of which he was him-
self chairman, and no man ever behaved more honourably
or upright, or with less regard to personal sacrifices. The
working men organised themselves into a committee, and
they very nearly succeeded in carrying the election, not-
withstanding all the influences brought to bear against
them. He was beaten, and he need scarcely assure them
that a contested election in a place like York could not be
fought for a shilling. Without any bribery the election
expenses amounted to about £7OO. There were about 200
gentlemen in that city who were called freemen, and they
generally abstained from voting until 3 o'clock in the day.
(Laughter.) They were very good men in their way, and
he was told that they were very good liberals. They
always went to the liberals first, and offered their vote
for £5 a head, and if the liberals would not take them,
then they went to the conservatives, and offered them
for £lO. (Laughter.) On the occasion to which he re-
ferred, the liberals wore not prepared to avail themselves
of this advantageous offer, and he was beaten. (Laughter
and cheers.) Three weeks afterwards he was invited down
to a public meeting at York. They gave him a magnifi-
cent reception, and after the meeting was over handed
him 750 golden sovereigns in a box made of wood from
York minstee. (Loud cheers.) That election did not cost
him a shilling, but the expenses were met by the
shillings, half-crowns, and five shillings of the working
men. He heard that his friend, Mr. Hughes, was going to
share the same fate. (Great cheering.) He hoped it was
the case. (A voice, " It is.") He would toll them why. Ho
had no stingy feeling, although he thought that spending
money in elections was throwing money away ; but if they
really wanted to have in Parliament the class of men they
expressed an anxiety to see there, they ought to be able to
send them without putting them to a shilling of expense.
He would even carry the argument further still. He wished
to see all persons represented in the House of Commons,
and he should be glad to see three or four working men
there—not those who arrogated to themselves to speak in
the name of the working men, but those who would really
represent them. There was no easier hobby-horse to ride
than that of the working men. Whenever a speaker in the
House of Commons was in difficulties he jumped on the back
of a working man and mode him trot up and down—(laugh-
ter)—believing that together they formed a kind of centaur,
of which he was the top and the working man the bottom.
(Laughter.) Ho had a great—he would not say contempt—
but misgiving, with regard to this kind of gentleman, and
he should therefore like to see a few genuine working men
in the house. (Cheers.) If they could not speak good
grammar, he did not care about that, nor did he think it
was a matter that the house cared much about. (Great
laughter.) What they wanted was good sound common sense
—men who expressed what they really felt, thought, and
wanted. His friend Mr. Hughes know more of the working
men than most of them, and had more authority to speak
in their name, but even Mr. Hughes could not identify
himself completely with them. It was impossible' that he
could. They had different interests, and there was a gulf
between them. (Hear, hear.) What was required was that
the House of Commons should hear from the working men
themselves what it was they wanted, and, therefore, ho
should be glad to see two or three, or more, working men
in the House of Commons. (Cheers.) But unless they
established the principle that men were to be sent to the
House of Commons without spending a fortune, they could
not hope to have working men there. This question was,
therefore, of the greatest possible importance to the work-
ing men, and every effort should be made by them to
secure that those they voted for should be sent to Parlia-
ment free of expense. (Cheers.) To show what the work-
ing men could do in London he would turn for a moment
to the men they had returned during the present election.
He had already spoken of Mr. Mill. There was not a more
distinguished writer or thinker in the country, although
he had no doubt that Mr. Mill was unknown to many of
the electors before the election, because his works wore of
that character that they were not likely to penetrate among
the masses of the population, being works of high logic
and philosophy. But the moment Mr. Mill's character
was made known to the working men of Westminster—
the moment it was known what he had done and it was
understood that he was a thinker, the working men said,
" He is the man we want in Parliament." It was the same
in Finsbury, where a man of literary attainments was re-
turned, a man who ought to be in Parliament, as a man of
intelligence and intellect. It was the same in the City
of London, although probably the working men had
less to do with the result there. He would say nothing of
Southwark, except that Ave years ago he received there the

The attendance to-day was very numerous, the Grand
Stand being almost inconveniently crowded, while the
ground was covered with a goodly display of carriages.
The committee may bo congratulated on the success with
which the Brighton Cup has commenced its fresh lease.

Flying Horse, with Saladin, Plover, and Arkansas, got
away in advance, and ran in company into the bottom,
Greenland lying in the extreme rear. Shortly after they
commenced the ascent of the hill Saladin headed Mr.
Saxon's colt, and came on with a clear lead to the enclosure,
when he was headed by Arkansas, who won in a canter by
a couple of lengths, Saladin defeating Flying Horse by
three parts of a lengths for second. Plover was fourth,

Ono hour and a quarter was lost at the post before Mr.
M'George was enabled to effect an equitable start, in doing
which the services of Admiral Rous were brought into re-
quisition. Blackbird, on the inside, was the first in action,
and came on with a slight lead of Juliet, Salliet, and Went-
worth, who, as they descended the hill, were followed by
the favourite, Musketeer, and Quirina. On reaching the
distance Blackbird was beaten, and speedily dropped back,
his place being taken. •by Salliet, who, as they neared the
enclosure, was headed by Wentworth and Viper. The
three from this point finished a close race home, the former
winning cleverly at last by a neck ; half a length sepa-
rated the second and third ; Musketeer was fourth,
Arethusa fifth, and Juliet next.

The winner was bought in for 200 guineas.

agst Rodmire.

Union Jack, immediately the flag was lowered, went to
the front, and made play at an indifferent pace, followed in
Indian file by Sydmonton, Ely, and Cambuscan ; Redmire

and Caller Ou, side by side, lying two or throe lengths in
their rear. These positions wero retained as they skirted
the brow of the hill, but on reaching the three-quarters of

a mile-post Redmire became the absolute last, and the
favourite, who had been gradually improving his position,
followed the leaders to the bend for home. Here Syclmon-

ton was beaten, when Custance brought up his horse to
the quarters of Mr. Morris's colt, and with Cambuscan on
his right, and Caller Ou immediately in his wake, came on
in company to the, distance, when Union Jack boat a re-
treat, leaving the favourite with the lead. At the en-
closure Cambuscan hung out signals of distress, leaving
the race with the two, but as they neared the Stand the old
mare appeared to stand still, leaving Ely to canter home
the winner by eight lengths. Union Jack, who passed
Cambuscan at the stand, finished a wretched third.

Lytham jumped away with sleight lead,closely attended
by Medicis, Frogmen), The Brigand, and Lucky Star.
Half way down the hill the latter came up on the inside,
and after running a few strides in company, he headed
Lytham, and with The Brigand at his quarters finished the
race home, Lucky Star winning very cleverly at last by
half a length. A bad third, Guardsman was fourth,
Lytham fifth, Medicis sixth, and Durham seventh. Golden
Cross was last.

Bay Leaf made play, having Miss Roland, Ulphus, Ma-
zurka, and Sister to Amber lying up. Rounding the bend
for home the two latter came to th 3 front, followed half-
way down the hill by Venture, the trio being joined by
Ambition and Loaf Sugar at the enclosure. From this
point a close race ensued, Venture getting his head in ad-
vance at the stand, and winning cleverly by three parts of
a length. There were two lengths between the second
and third, Ambition was fourth, at whose side was Ulphus.
The last three were Miss Roland, Bay Leaf, and Gold Pen,
who were beaten off a long way.
