equal to those that the past and the present have crested.
(Cheers.) I cannot but believe that there are yet in store
for us many great achievements, and that we and our
brethren across the Atlantic, increasing in population and
power, shall be the means of diffusing among the nations
of the earth a better literature, a sounder philosophy, and
a more Christian religion. (Loud and long-continued
cheering.) The noble lord concluded by moving the fol-
lowing resolution :—" That it is highly important to esta-
blish throughout the kingdom institutions whose members
associate for instruction and improvement, and by small
individual eontrihutioas create funds for maintaining an
efficient society, with the object of combining agreeable
occupation fur leisure with useful culture of the mind."
The Bishop of BRISTOL and GLOUCESTER seconded the
resolution.
Earl DUCIE then rose and moved the next resolution—
"That such institutions tend to improve the moral tone of
those who enjoy the benefits which they are designed to
confer, to make them more intelligent citizens, and more
useful members of society."
Sir ROBERT PEEL, who was received with loud cheer-
ing, rose to second the motion. He said—l am glad of the
opportunity of expressing the gratification which I feel
for the honour you have done me in the invitation to
attend here on this interesting occasion. When I came
here, I proposed to myself to be an earnest, an anxious
listener ; and I must say, that the expectations which I
had formed of the interest of the speeches that would be
delivered have been amply realised in the eloquent, the
engaging, the fascinating address of the noble lord.
(Cheers.) Ne man in England irmore fit to discourse on
this subject than he. As the lord bishop of the diocese
has just said, he has done more than any man in England
to diffuse among the people the spirit of education. You
are, perhaps, aware that, though the Parliament of 1833
furnished a sum of money from the public funds for the
purposes of education, still the great glory was reserved
for the noble lord of founding the Committee of Privy
Council for the purposes of education in 1839, which,
though it met with great opposition at first, has since
worked admirably for the public good. (Cheers.) Both
as a private individual and as president of a union of
mechanics' institutions in the midland counties, I rejoice
to be able to bear testimony to my sense of the value of
the countenance which the noble lord has this day given
to those strictly popular institutions, as they are repre-
sented by this Atheneum, and I congratulate the mem-
bers of this institution on the flourishing position which
it has attained ; and I trust that those who are here to-
night will lend their co operation to place it on a solid
and enduring basis. Though there are thousands of
such institutions in the country, yet many have
failed ; and why ? Because support was wanting in
those very quarters for whose benefit .these institu-
tions are specially intended. (Hear, hear.) I am very
glad to see, as one interested in the progress of these insti-
tutions, that there are in this important and flourishing
locality increased facilities for the artisan and the mechanic
to improve their intellectual resources, which, after all,
say what you will, constitute the true vein and essence of
progress in this country. (Loud cheers.) It redounds to
the credit of the liberal and generous-hearted individuals
of this town who have opportunities of leisure and relaxa-
tion, that they should have assisted to afford to others the
excellent and commodious institution which we are now as-
sembled to celebrate. But it appears to me that, in an-
other respect, this meeting has an important bearing. At
the present moment, when public attention was busily en-
gaged with events which were well calculated to interest
all who have at heart the success and the renown of Bri-
tieh arms—at such a moment when it might be expected
that the arts and questions of peace would be overborne
by the tragic pictures and the horrors of war—at such a
moment it is a cheering sight and a happy augury to find
England's chief statesman, as he has well been called,
t eking an opportunity to disencumber himself from the
weight of political duties, and giving his countenance,
support, and sanction to meetings like this. (Cheers.) It
was only yesterday that I read the report of a similar
meeting at Bedford, where the noble lord stated he would
be happy to dedicate his moments of leisure to institutjons
of this kind, which were intended for the special adv-n-
-tags of young men. Hero is the fulfilment of the pledge—
(cheers)--and it is of interest to find that the noble lord
can defer other considerations to unite with this honour-
able company in inaugurating your new building. I say
that this is a matter of happy augury, because, instead
of finding that the war absorbs all other questions, we find
that institutions intended for the social g
even of the people
absorbedofthe

tion will appreciate the compliment that has been paid to
them, and they will render themselves worthy of it, be-
cause they must recollect that the cultivation of the in-
tellect is the duty alike incumbent upon the high and low,
and that the increase of facilities for
.enlightenment brings
with it a corresponding increase of responsibility. (Cheers.)
I ask every gentleman here whether this is a moment in
which we ought to endeavour to shun the responsibility
that has been cast upon us ? Look at the advantages we
enjoy now which were denied to those who wont before
us. Look at the cheap literature of the present day—
look at the well-selected libraries and the carefully pre-
pared lectures—and I ask you how degraded is the cha-
racter of that man who can be couteut to wander
on through life in voluntary ignorance, when, by a little
energy and perseverance, he might obtain knowledge
enough to fit him for every station to which he may be
called in this happy country, where, without distinction
of sect or creed, the widest field of competition is opened
to a noble imitation. (Loud cheers.) lam glad to laud,
as one important feature of your institution, that your
reading room is well provided with the current litera-
ture of the day, as represented by the newspapers. I
once asked that veteran friend of education, Mr.
Joseph Hume, what he thought of the introduc-
tion of newspapers into institutions of this kind,
and he told me that he, for one, would never sup-
port any institution which did nut admit newspapers.
(Cheers.) I know that some people talk of excluding poli-
tics from mechanics' institutions. Why, good Grid ! poli-
tical knowledge is that which we all feel to be of the ut-
most importance to this country • and I for one would
impress upon all the artisans and mechanics of England
that they ought to inquire into the nature of our institu-
tions, and, as the noble lord has said, into the history of
our liberties, so that they may be fitted to take their part
in the working of those institutions which are gradually
and rapidly developing, so as to be extended to them.
(Cheers.) It is only in this way that those classes can gain
that linowledge without which popular power has snore
than once degenerated into an instrument of oppression.
And I would further suggest, that by reading the works of
great and good men many prejudices would bo removed
which have hitherto operated most bitterly to the preju-
dice of the working classes. (Cheers.) I have been given
to understand that this institution was established in 1845,
in order to afford rational occupation to those young per-
sons who are now released frem their hours of work at an
earlier period than they used to be, through the generous
efforts of another association—the Early-Closing Associa-
tion. Now, in connection with this subject, there is one
question that has struck me, which would be of vast ad-
vantage to tee all to advocate. It is a question which
is equally interesting to the industrious labourer, to the
employer, and to the public at large—the question of hav-
ing public holidays at certain fixed periods. (Cheers.) I
think that this question is one of great public import-
ance. I find that it is recommended in the report of a
committee that sat lately on the subject of the Post-
office, so that you see it comes recommended by great
authority. (Renewed cheers.) If you give a relaxation
to the labourer—of course without diminution of his
wages (cheers) oh, of course without diminution
of his wages or salary—(cheers and laughter)—that must
always be understood—l am sure it will add much to the
friendly
labourers of this country, I am sure it will

every means in our power to increase the utility of iustitils
tions like the present, recollecting that the aim of all these
institution! is instruction, and that the situ of every kind
of instruction is the exercise of all social and Christian
virtues—(cheers)—that is to say, that if you cultivate the
head you are almost sure to improve the heart ; and that
in the very act of improving ourselves we shall be certain
at the same time to benefit others. I, with you, have list-
ened to the eloquent observations of the noble lord) end I
draw from them this conclusion, that we ought all of tie to
cultivate those noble faculties with which God has endowed
its, and that so we may afford a salutary moral example to
other countries, and confer dignity and distinction upon
our own. (Loud cheers.)
Mr. D. HILL, Csmnaissioner of Bankruptcy for Bristol,
then moved the next resolution, expressing approbation of
the plan of the Bristol Athenaeum, and recommending it to
the support of the inhabitantsgenerally, which was seconded
by Mr. SCOBELL, M.P., for Bath, and carried.
Mr. SHAW, the Mayor, of Bristol, seconded by Mr. BER-
KELEY, M.P. for the City, moved a vote of thanks to Lotd
John Russell, and the other distinguished guests, for their
attendance.
Lord S. IttlagEtt, shortly returned thanks, in his own
name and those of the other visitors. He had learned that
there was another Athenaeum in the City, supported by
personr of humbler means than those who were members of
the present. He believed the best thing to be done would
be that no attempt should be made at a forced union of
different classes—that the inhabitants should each join that
institution which they could best afford ; and by that
mean., he thenght, in time she whnle would receive edtt.ca•

feelings of no ordinary emotion to address you on the pre-
sent occasion. I trust that my coming hither may be of
some small use to the institution whose inauguration you
celebrate, and some use to other similar institutions
throughout the country; but certainly the reception you
have given me far surpasses any one which my utmost
expectations might hope to achieve. Let me address
myself as soon as possible to the business of the
meeting, and to the questions which lie before us.
I cannot but rejoice to think that the progress which this
country is making in education is so great, nnany will
deny it to be rapid, but I trust it is a sure progress, and
that its present extent is an augury of further success. In
the course of the last half century we have had our day
schools so multiplied, that in the place of one, two, or
three handred thousand scholars, there have risen up
more than two millions of scholars. We have also our
literary institutions, literary societies, and Athenaeums
spread over the country, and I trust that in this respect
the west will be found to compete with the north in the
value and extent of those institutions. We have seen
within the last day or two the commencement of a, new
system of reform within the University of Oxford, and I
trust that that venerable institution, still keeping all it
had that was valuable, will now extend it- benefits still
more widely than it has hitherto done, and will more de-
serve the name of a national institution. (Cheers.) Such
being the general aspect of education and of mental in-
struction, let me turn to the institutions which you have
in this city. I find upon inquiry that this is far from
being the only institution of the kind among you ; that
there is also an early-closing society, which has its own
lectures and its own establishiments ; that there is an-
other institution which has a most valuable museum;
and that there is still another society, which has a
large library and an extensive collection of books in
every branch of science and literature. Many of these
have sprung from low beginnings, ; and the lord bishop
of the diocese many years ago inaugurated a society
which is one of the branches from which the present
Athenaeum has been formed. Now I trust that not only
will these societies continue to flourish, but that they will
receive great extension ; especially that tho library which
is connected with this institution, and the library whicia
has no other object, may have so valuable a collection of
books that those who have leisure may by these means be
able to improve it in the cultivation of their minds ; and
that those who are engaged in heavy and wearisome occu-
pations throughout the clay may in the evening receive that
recreation from literature which literature is so well able
to afford. (Cheers.) Now perhaps, ladies and gentlemen,
I may allow myself so far to depart from what is usual in
assemblies of this kind that whereas it has been usual to
fix on some author or collection of authors who deserve
praise arid study, I wish to point out one branch in our
literature—and that an important branch—in which, ac-
cording to my notions, there is a void yet to be filled up. I
speak of no less a subject than the history of our own
country. (Cheers.) We certainly are a people who up to
this day—and I believe we show no signs of degeneracy—
have been celebrated in arts, famous in arms, and we prize
above all things our literature, our liberty, and our reli-
gion. Now we have—not to speak of living authors—but
we have, in respect to certain periods of our history, emi-
nent authors who will always be read with delight and
instruction. But at the same time something is wanting,
even with these. The name of Clarendon will flourislathrough
all times as the author of a history in which weighty periods
and wise reflections ever captivate the attention, and whose
portraits of character are worthy to be placed by the side
of those which Vandyke has given us in painting. But
Clarendon was himself an actor in the scenes which he de-
scribes, and he naturally puts in the fairest light the ac-
tions of those whose side he espoused. There are other
periods of our history which have been depicted with the
greatest force, and by living authors, on whose merits, if I
were to mention living authors, I could dilate with the
greatest pleasure. But with respect to general history—
and this nation deserves a general history—(cheers)--I
look in vain. When Lord Chatham wished a beloved
nephew to learn the history of our civil- wars, he refers
him to May's " History of the Past," an obscure and ill-
written work, however much its sentiments might have
pleased Lord Chatham. Mr. Fox, in speaking to the
tutor of a young men in whose education he was much
interested, recommended him to read Rapin's " History."
But Rapin's " History," diffuse and prolix as it is, will
hardly be read by many in the present generation, There
remains a distinguished author, the beauty of whose style,
the skill of his narrative, and frequently the justice of his
reflections, have made him a very pophlar author—l mean
David Hume. But if we were to ask what qualifications
David Hume had for writing the history of this country,
we should find that in all those respects which I have men-
tioned—in literature, liberty, and religion—he was pre-
eminently destitute of those qualities which would fit him
for writing such a history. Let us take, in the first place,
literature. I was reading not long ago the character which
he gives of Shakspere and Bacon. He represents the ex-
ample of Shakspere as well fitted to act as a warning to
all persons who have no learning, and no knowledge of art,
how they presume to excel in the knowledge of a great
art. He says his genius is irregular, and that beautifully
as he describes characters that are rare and unusual, he
is totally wanting in propriety of diction, and that we
can only admire him as we admire those gigantic forms
which are often accompanied with deformity and mon-
strosity. Now, I ask you—and I am sure, if you read the
passage, you will agree with me that I have given a tole-
rablyfair description of it—l ask you whether Shakepere
is an author who ought thus to be dismissed in a history
which pretends to treat of our national literature? (Cheers.)
So he speaks of Bacon, who was at all events a great philo-
sopher, whose sagacity enabled him to take a correct view
of the progress of philosophy, and to point out the mode
in which modern science would finally excel the ancient.
Mr. Hume mentions him with some commendation indeed,
but at the same time he takes care to point out that Ga-
lileo was far his superior—that Galileo actually accom-
plished that which Bacon only pretended to teach. Well,
ladies and gentlemen, Galileo was a great man—no one
doubts it; but is not that a most unfair way of diminish-
ing the glory of Becon ? (Cheers.) But, in fact, Mr.
Hume being reeeustomed all his life to French models (ad-
miring the regularity of the French models--atni no doubt
the writings of the French authors ere excellent in their
way), was unable to pereeire the transcendent excellences
of the English anthem 'Text, with regard to freedom.
Mr. Hume never seems to have perceived what it was that
made this country so great, and which so well Justified her
people in making their struggles for OA enjoy went. of our
present privileges. In early times—in the time of Edward
IV.—he mentions at something remarkable that the Par-
liament took no interest, and, showed no sympathy for the
Duke of Clarence, when the murder of that prince took
place, while they showed themselves very chary in granting
supplies to the Crown. Now, there was no reason at all
for the people caring whether the tyrannical princes of
those days acted unjustly and oppressively towards each
other—it was but a change of tyrants if one succeeded the
other. But, in voting money, the Parliament felt that if
they gave that money lavishly they were giving up all the
means by which their freedom could be secured. Again, in
the reign of James 1., Mr. Hume, in mentioning the impri-
sonment of those eminent men, Coke and Selden, for ven-
turing to speak their mind in Parliament, he has no sym-
pathy for those great men by whose sufferings our liberties
were purchased ; he has no indignation or censure to cast
upon the prince ; he mentions it merely as an act of rash-
ness and imprudence on the part of the sovereign. On the
third point—that of religion—l do eot think that is a topic
on which it would be fit to dilate in this place, and there-
fore I shall only say that Mr. Hume—a sceptic of sceptics
—a man who made it his sport to destroy all belief and
all faith, not only in revealed religion, but in the very exis-
tence of the mind, and who indulged in speculations of this
kind as it were to show his great wit and ingenuity—Mr.
Hume was hardly the man to show sympathy for the religi-
ous struggles in which the people of this country have been
engaged. I have endeavoured thus shortly to show why I corn e
to the conclusion that, among the wants of the literature of
this country, we want a writer who shall write the history
of this great people with a clue appreciation of their great
qualities—who will celebrate, as they ought to be celebrated,
those men among us who have been eminent in literature
and science—who will appreciate, as they ought to be ap-
preciated, the contests of the great men in former days,
who fought, at the sacrifice of their limbs and their lives,
in order to obtain freedom for us ; and who will appreciate
likewise that liberty of conscience by which a people so
great in other respects have made themselves deserving of
everlasting remembrance. (Loud cheering.) He who at-
tempts this work—he who attempts to give us such a his-
tory—will certainly not have the mournful reflection
which some of the Greek and Roman writers had, that
they were depicting the virtues of past days ; that they
were delineating qualities which had altogether d isappeared;
because we may say that up to this time certainly we value
liberty, we value the benefits we enjoy, and the last three
months have shown that for valour in arms there never
was a time when Englishmen stood more justly distin-
guished than at present. (Immense cheering.) And now,
ladies and gentlemen, on venturing to trouble you with
these observations, let me only further say that I shall
ever be grateful to you fur the reception which you have
given me to-clay. (Cheers.) I trust that this institurion,
anti nil similar institutions, will take care to foster solid
Ivrirnin.;, in the lectures and general instruction they may
impart, end that while the and flowery paths of
literature are not neglected, solid philosophy and the great
wasters of English literature will be duly cultivated, so
that we may trust we shall produce in future times works

discussion,
Mr. Seymour addressed the jury on the evidence as it
stood. He contended that it had not been proved that
the prisoner had been guilty of fraud, or that he had told
a falsehood, and as those had to be proved before they
could find him guilty, he called upon them, however
much immorality has been committed, to acquit him.
The Recorder then summed up, and the jury. after a
brief consultation, returned a verdict of guilty on all the
counts of the indictment. The prisoner was then sen-
tenced to two years' imprisonment. with hard labour.
Mr. Seymour asked the Recorder to grant a case, in
order that it might be taken to the superior court.
The Recorder said he bad not determined whether he
should grant a case or not ; but the matter should have
his serious consideration.
On Wednesday morning the prisoner was again placed
in the dock, charged with committing an assault on the
prosecutrix. He was found guilty on the charge, and
sentenced to six months' imprisonment.
The discussion relative to the granting of a case was
resumed, and ultimately the Recorder refused to grant
one.—Eastern Counties Herald.

the distances of objects viewed through them—of great im-
portance to the army, navy, and others. Messrs. S. and B.
Solomons, opticians, 39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly. Ob-
serve—opposite the York Hotel.- These telescopes possess
such extraordinary powers that some 3,i inches, with an ex-
tra eye-piece, will show distinctly Jupiter's moons, Saturn's
ring, and the double stars ; with the same telescope) can be
seen a person's countenance three miles and a half distant,
and an object from 12 to 14 miles. They are of largar and all
sizes, with increasing powers accordingly.—The Royal Ex-
hibition, 1851.—Valuable, newly-invented, very small,
powerful waistcoat-pocket glass,the size of a walnut, by which
a person
can be seen and known 1 miles distant ; they answer
every purpose on the race-course, and at the opera houses,
country scenery, and ships are clearly seen at 8 to 10 miles.
They are invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, yachting., to
sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers, and tourists. Opera,
race-course, camp, and perspective glasses, with wonderful
power ; au object can be clearly seen from 10 to 12 miles
distant. Spectacle Lenses of the greatest transparent power.

vision becoming impaired is preserved and strengthened, and
very aged persons are enabled to employ their sight at the most
minute occupation—can see with these lenses of a much less . mag-
nifying powerand they do not require the frequent charges
to the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance. D oaf-
ness —New Discovery.—The Organic Vibrator, an extraordi-
nary powerful, small, newly-invented instrument for deafu ess,
entirely different from all others, to surpass anything of the
kind that has been, or probably ever can be, produced.
Being of the same colour as the skin, is not perceptible ; it
enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at church ant I at
public assemblies ; the unpleasant sensation of singing no ises
in the ears is entirely removed; and it affords all the assist-
ance that possibly could be desired,-39, Albemarle-street,
Piccadilly. Observe—opposite the York motel.

The new lighthe-use erected on the summit of Mount
Faro, thet being the most prominent point on the extreme
south of the centre island, will be lit every night from

November. The lighthouse is situated in latitude
42* 12' 23" N., longitude 02* 41' 50" W. of the meridian
of the Observatory of Saint Ferdinand.
Its apparatus is of the second order, catadioptrical, with
eclipses from minute to minute. The light is raised 650
Burgos feet above the level of the sea; it produces a tan-
gent of 31 miles ; but it can be seen at more or less dis-
tance according to the state of the atmosphere and the
height of the observer.

PROVISIONS.—Foreign butters are in steady demand,
and the quality coming to market seasonably better has
given Holstein and Bosch a higher range, the former
reaching 90$, and the latter 90s to 945. Irish Butters are
very firm, and Cork are is dearer, owing to the high ad-
viees from that market, firsts over there bringing 100 s,
seconds 943, and thirds 90$. Bacon is very scarce, the
Waterford boat having been detained through an accident,
and her arrival is not expected till Wednesday. It is not
easy to buy anything but at extreme quotations.
Ricx met with a slow demand to-day ; white Bengal
landed 15s to 16s 6d , Madras 13s 6d to 14s 6d, and cargo
12s 6d to 13s. There was no public sale.
