GREAT PAROCHIAL REFORM FES
TIVAL IN MARYLEBONE.

The seventh annual festival, in commemoration of the pass-
ing of the Vestries Act—the parochial Magna Charta of this
great parish—took place, utaler the most gratifying circum-
stances, at Lord's Cricket Ground, yesterday afternoon. On
the grounds a spacious marquee, capable of holding 1,000
persons, was erected ; and on long tables within was spread a
most elegant cold collation, comprising almost every delicacy
in season, to which at least 600 of the most respectable and
influential of the parishioners sat down, aid on raised benches,
along one side, were between 500 and 600 of the ladies.
About four o'clock, Mr. Wilson, the Secretary, announced
that the gentleman original!) expected to take the Chair was
prevented unavoidably from attending, and he moved that
Lord Nugent be called to the Chair, which was unanimously
amidstrespon ldot to
cheering.
and the Noble Lord accordingly took the Chair
Grace having been said, the company proceeded to do ample
justice to the collation, which, indeed, vanished with wonder-
ful rapidity. The quality of the wines was admirable, and
no pains were spat ed by Mr. Dark (the proprietor
of the grounds, and tavern adjoining), to give universal satis-
faction. A hand of music was in attendance, and enlivened
the company by playing a variety of popular airs. Before the
'conclusion of the. dinner Mr. O'Connell arrived, and was
greeted with loud and general applause. Mr. Ewart was also
Oat teringly received.
When the cloth was removed the NOBLE CHAIRMAN rose and
said, in the absence of the gentleman originally destined to fill
that stat!on, he was proud and happy to occupy it. He
asked their indulgence ;he was sure of their support. He saw
around him an assembly of his fellow-citizens, met to com-
memorate the passing of an Act, which though local, was of
great advantage to public liberty; an Act by which this im-
mense parish was enabled to enter into the administration of its
own affairs.—( Cheers.) Of the results of that Act they were
all aware, nor would he detain them by an enumeration ; but
he would express a hope that for many many years to
come, so long as Marylebone was proud of its privileges—
the Passing of this Act would be held in remembrance.—
(Cheers.) Under the principle of popular election, the paro-
chial authorities had secured to their constituents an annual
saving of 150,0001., and at the same time had increased the
means
of meeting all just demands—the saving being effected
only by the abolition of corruption and jobbing.—( Cheers.)
.This had arisen from the popular class having given their
time and energies—the capital of that class—to the work,
wrti friend o
and these were the effects of the popular election—popular
election, too, by the Ballot—( Cheers)—which had been esta-
blished. He had risen to propose a toast, which he
was sure would alike be acceptable to the judgment and
the feelings of all present, and would be received

land with these feelings he called upon them all to join with
him in responding to this toast—" Our youthful Queen ; and
long may she reign, as she now does, in the hearts of her faith-
ful and affectionate people."—( Loud cheers. )
Drank with all the honours, three times three, and tremen-
dous applause.

" God save the Queen" was here given in good style, the
whole company heartily joining, uprising, in the chorus.
The CHAIRMAN, in giving " The Royal Family now resi-
dent in England"—( Cheers)—said he was sorry the toast was
so limited as to prevent him from drinking the health of one
of the members of that family—the Sovereign of an indepen-
dent State—one who, during a long residence in this country,
was respected and beloved, and who in his new kingdom had
never failed to promote the interests of liberty—he meant
the King of Belgium.—( Cheers.) He had sincere plea-
sure in coupling with this toast ,the name of his
Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex—( Loud cheers)—
the friend of freedom, the patron of science, the promoter of
liberal principles, and the thoroughly English Prince of the
Blood Royal.—(Cheers.) He gave " The Duke of Sussex,
and the rest of the Royal Family now resident in England."—
(Drunk with all the honours, and great cheering.)
Air—" Hearts of Oak."

Mr. WiLsoN said, on previous occasions they had the plea-
sure of the company of Sir J. Hobbouse, to whose efforts they
were indebted mainly for the Act they commemorated ; but
from that Right Hon. Gentleman he had received the follow-
ing note :—" I feel much flattered by your recollection of an
old public servant, but regret that Ishall not be in town on that
day." However, they would not fail, in the Right Hon. Baronet's
own words, " to recollect an old public servant"— ( Cheers)—and
do justice to his colleagues in office, who were now exerting
themselves to procure for their countrymen in the Sister
Kingdom those same privileges which Marylebone had happily
obtained.---(Cheees' Mr. Wilson concluded by expressing
his delight at observing many present different in politics from
the great body of the meeting he did so for two reasons—
themselves to be right, he hoped the
meeting mightbeli

—(Lod cheers.) He gave " Sir J. Hobhouse, and the rest
of her Majesty's Ministers."--( Drunk with the usual honours,
and with general cheering.)
Air—"

The professional gentlemen present here sung a glee.
Mr. HovaNDEN said, he had much pleasure in proposing the
however, he was deeply grieved,
health of their real Representative, Sir Benjamin Hall—( Loud

particularly as it arose from something worse than a crime—a

Baronet who had left town for Wales, well knowing the day
blunder--a
on which the festival was to take place; but his Welsh
friends bad been giving him some barley wine, which had
rather, it would seem, confused his memory.—(Laughter)
for he had written that he would take care to be in town to-
night, for the festival on the Bth.—( Laughter.) Mr. Hoven-
den went on to say that he did not believe the borough of
Marylebone could have a much better representative than Sir
Benjamin Hall—( Cheers)—who was always found upon the
( Cheers)—and, above all, who had always su
right side—
efforts which which were made to obtain for much-injure
ported thed
Ireland equal rights.—( Cheers.) Ho ( Mr. Hovenden)
hoped that the borough would elect such another man to Par-
liament at the next election. Sir Benjamin—the ladies
would like to hear—was an excellent husband and father, for
the man who was not amiable and beloved in his private
relations, could hardly l'e a good public character.—(Cheers.)
The health of Sir Benjamin was then drank with enthusiasm.
Air--
" Auld Lang Syne."
Mr. ELMON said he need only mention the toast he had
the honour of proposing,
,to excite a cordial response in
he had to give Daniel O'Connell, and Justice:to
every bosom,
irelaad.,,—(Loud and continued cheering.) He knew that
so crilightened and patriotic an assembly as the present could
not be insensible to the almost superhuman exertions which that
gentleman had made in the cause of liberty.—( Renewed
cheering.) It had been alluded to by his friend Mr. Ho
venden that the affairs of Ireland were then in a perilous situa-
tion, and that it was most probable that the reform so es-
sentially necessary to the growing liberties of a nation, was
that night to be denied them.--( Hear, hear.) Could they
then hesitate for a moment as to the course which it was the
bounden duty of the Reformers of England to pursue ?
( Hear, hear.) They must no longer submit with tameness
to the injus:ice perpetrated against a country which had
fought for their civil and religious freedom, but carry their
expositions to the foot of the throne in such a manner as must
be attended to.—( Loud cheers.) " Daniel O'Connell,
and
Justice to Ireland."

The toast was drunk with unbounded enthusiasm, and
followed by cheering, which lasted for some time.
Mr. O'CONNELL, on rising, was again received with similar
'applause. plu

different as to 'either, were free to go for the highest bidder,

wipe off this disgrace of "one

from one—nothing remains," at every division. —( Cheers. )
We, Irish—it is one of my proudest boasts that we did so—
our little phalanx—they call us a "tail " sometimes—
( Laughter)—but I like the Greek word best—(Laughter)—
we assisted you in your struggle for liberty, and were
able to turn the scale of victory on your side.
( Cheers.) Let this stimulate you to go on in the same course—
not in overwhelming meetings of 300,000—not in threats of
physical force—not in movements towards a revolution, but in
the steady march of moral improvement.—( Cheers.) We
wish for political change, but to leave the social system un.
touched.—( Cheers.) These are the principles I like to see
spread abroad, which I always advocate ; but if I see greater
assemblies, I call on the Tory faction to remain, whose refusal
of Englishmen's rights draws the working classes to insist upon
more than perhaps they ought to ask. I tell the tyrants it is not
safe to continue long to despise any portion of the British people.
But let me not be misunderstood—no man can be more ultra,
more thorough Radical than I am. I want short Parliaments
—which of yeu does not think a three years' lease of Lord
Teignmouth sufficient?—( Laughter.) Yet he has a seven
years' lease of you—six for ruining, one for repenting.—
( Laughter.) No man can be more determined than myself
for an extension of the suffrage. Every Englishman ought
to have a vote.—( Loud cheers.) I am for doing away
with all the vexatious Nisi Prins chicanery of the regis-
tering. I would make the simple fact—as. to which
evidence could easily be pro Cured—that the voter had lived six
months in the parish, sufficient ?—( Hear, hear.) I would,
however consent to this, that no man should have a vote who
was not taxed ; and find me, if you can, the Englishman that
does not pay taxes.—( Laughter.) I em for the Ballot.—
(Cheers.) I think no man can be honest who is not for the
Ballot. Read the Noble Chairman's pamphlet on this question
Hear)—and see how clearly it is proved that the Ballet
would make voters independent. The Tories, therefore, will
not have it. No wonder—the Ballot would prevent bribery; for
the man who would be rascal enough to take a bribe, ;light
be scoundrel enough-not to, earn it afterwards at the voting—
( Hear)—and it would take from the higher classes all im-
proper influence, leaving them none but that which arises
from the nobility of character.—( Cheers.) Give me the
Ballot, and I have a powerful incentive to every man wishing
to become a Member of Parliament, to obtain the affections
and judgment of his constituents. My opinions are in favour
of rational liberty—no violence—no overthrow—but improve-
ment in the machinery of Government. Englishmen had im-,
proved every other species of machinery. Englishmen, for
instance, had not made a rent in the steam-engine to destroy
it, but had made successive improvements in it until it bad set
the storms, the winds, and tides at defiance, and effected al-
most the annihilation of time and space.—(Hear.) Am Ito
be told, then, that they cannot improve the machinery of Go-
vernment—that they cannot repeal the bread tax—( Cheers)--
that they cannot alter the jargon of the Westminster schools, the
statute laws, so as translate them into common sense and cheap-
ness? Why, you might as well tell me that the statutes against
witchcraft would be revived, and old woman burned again in Pa-
lace-yard. Heaven knows there are enough of them there now
—( Laughter)—and I am reminded of one great hero who has
become something like an old woman ; but unless the peo-
ple retrogade with poor Burdett they must soon obtain a re-
dress of all their wrongs.—( Cheers.) Remember, English-
men, in supporting Ireland in her struggle for justice, you
lose nothing yourself—you indeed increase your own store by
making us richer.—( Cheers.) I want a Union—a union
of equality.—(Loud cheering.) I ask no more—you
would despise me if I asked less.—( Cheers.) We have for-
midable enemies. By bribery and intimidation, the English
Members are in a majority of three against us--of the Scotch
the majority are for us ; and then we have a " little bit of a
tail" in Ireland that just turns the balance ; but we have only
a majority of from eight to thirty on all questions.—(Hear.)
The Tories wish to deprive the Irish of all local share in self-
Government. There was no such desire manifested to depre-
ciate the Irish at Waterloo 1—( Hear.) No. There's au old
ballad that runs :

" In the fight of Waterloo,
Duke Wellington would have looked blue,
If Paddy was not there too."
(Roars of laughter.) Wherever the meteor flag of England
had moved—in every triumphant battle-field—whether on the
bloodstained deck, or the ensanguined plain—the co-mingling
stream of human blood that flowed to gain the victory poured
equally from the fraternal veins of Irishmen as well as of
Englishmen.—( Loud cheers.) I want to stir up the old
English spirit within you before I return to my country--
carrying back nothing but a little of the English accent.—
(Laughter.) I want you to think what a crime is committed
against Ireland, by allowing the Tory party to ride dominant.
We have been brothers with you in the fight for liberty—we
would be brothers in reality.—( Loud cheers.) Now look at
the Irish franchise : 400 voters in a county of 300,000 inhabit-
ants : that is about the rate.—( Shame.) And then the
Judges. No violation of English liberty—from ship money,
down to the power of compelling persons to answer on their
oaths upon attachment—has been sanctioned by my Lords the
Judges. But yours are angels to ours; " mighty ugly angels,"
to be sure !—( Laughter.) Why they have decided that a 101.
franchise, beneficial value, means 201. clear value.—(Loud
laughter.) Ireland, the poorest country of the three, is to have
a franchise double yours, instead of, as I should think, a smaller.
And lamtobe in love with " Duke Wellington."—( A laugh.)
and with Bobby Peel, who has no hypocrisy about him.—
( Laughter.) Oh, no ! who never says one thing while
thinking of another. —(Loud laughter.) He is no " Joseph
Surface"—is he ?—( Renewed laughter.) Then as to Cor-
porations. England and Scotland have Corporate Reform ;
Ireland is not to have it I Why not ? We pay the same'
price for liberty ; they are knaves and swindlers who would
deprive us of it.„( Loud cheers.) Oh, but then Peel turns
the whites of his eyes to Heaven, and Stanley prays, and
Inglis, full of good things, bought with a salary of one thou-
sand five hundred pounds, as " Tanjore Commissioner" for
doing nothing—(Laughter)—he says, "the cause of reli-
gion would be destroyed if you gave the Irish Corporations."
(Laughter.) Ido not think Mayors are great prophets, or
Town Councillors apostles.— ( Laughter.) I could understand
it if they put it thus—" We are the strongest, and you shall
not have Corporation Reform." But it is this bigoted
hypocrisy—this heartless insult, that barbs and envenoms the
shaft.—( Cheers.) , They say, forsooth, we are not going to
heaven, because we are not going their way ; and be-
cause we are not going to heaven (the worst rea-
son, sure, for treating us badly on earth—Loud laughter)—
they say we shall not have justice.—( Hear.) The Catholics
and Dissenters of Ireland are 7,000,000 ; and they are taxed
to support the Clergy of the remaining 800,000 Protestants.—
( Hear.) There has been much debate on the appropriation
clause, and the Ministry are blamed for giving it up, just when
they could not help it—( A laugh)—or I should have been the
first to blame them. What is the appropriation clause ?
That after the 800,000 have enough to supply their spiritual
wants, the remainder is to be set apart for the general
education of the people.—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear.")
The strong minority in the Commons encourage the Lords to
reject the principle ; for after all, the Lords are cowardly,
and only require " pressure from without.”—( Hear.) They
are a millstone round the neck of the people, in the way of
every improvement, and continuing every abuse. If they go
on thus, the indignation of the nation will be aroused, and the
representative principle will be adapted even in the Upper
House. The Lords oppose every useful measure, but they
stand like a rock against every amelioration in Ireland. But
there will be a voice from Ireland which will resound to this
country, and I will have an echo here.—( Cheers.) Oh, it
is a land to be loved—a land smiling with superabundant fer-
tility—her plains are verdant, her vallies green and lovely__
her hills now picturesque and beautiful—now rising majesti-
cally to the skies, pouring down the living waters in eternal
streams, swelling as they descend into those magnificent navi-
gable estuaries, sheltered harbours from every wind, yet open
to every sail.—( Loud cheers.) God has done much for the
land; they are impious who would
industry disfigure
it.—(Cheers. )
Her sons—do you want proof of their mid activity ?
From the western shores of Connaught do they come over,
60,000 or 80,000 every year, to your southern and eastern
counties, there to labour a whole season, for the sake of saving
31. or 41. The poor
labourer denies himself every little luxury
--be sleeps in a ditch—he lives upon the coarsest food—he
hoards' every farthing. Coming from a poor country to a
richer he might commit felonies with impunity ; but, blessed
be Heaven 1 they all return home, and leave no stain behind.
Loud cheers) And what is the stimulus which brings
him back to his bleak and lowly cottage, by the cold mountain
side ? Oh, there is a voice speaking to his heart !—the mo-
ther of his children, and the little ones are there—distress
would come upon them in the winter if he did not exhaust him-
self in the summer ; and at the recollection of his poor
starving babes he thinks no sacrifice too hard.—( Loud and
continued cheering.) I was a slave when I was born. My
parents could not purchase property, not even a lease.—
( Shame.) Soon as intelligence dawned upon my brain, 1
made a vow to Heaven that I would dio in the struggle, or
see liberty and equality established.—(Loud cheering.) I
have lived to see great successes, unstained by blood.
We worked by constitutional means. We took each other by
the hand, and said, " Will you live and die a slave in your
own land ?" The moral electricity shot through the country,
and our victory was gained.—(Cheers.) I want now to work
out a union—not of parchment, but reality.--( Cheers.) I
can neuer despair. We are 8,000,000. lam going back to
my country—she animates me with an enthusiasm unfitted to
my advanced age. When I hear her mountain streams rush-
ing along with a perpetual roar, they speak to me as
with a voice from eternity--" Your country ought to
be free I" When she has done so much for me, can
I hesitate 'to refuse titles, and office, and dignity. Oh ! I
thank God that I have had opportunity to refuse them all.—
( Loud cheers.) I live to labour for Ireland's and England's
liberty. When my voice ceases to be heard in that cause it
will be silent for ever in the grave.—( This speech, which was
delivered in a style of most impressive eloquence, was listened
to with the deepest attention, and at its close the Hon. and
Learned Gentleman was greeted with a burst of heartfelt en-
thusiasm, which resounded for several minutes; and on the
suggestion of Lord Nugent, three cheers were given for
" Justice to Ireland I")
Song from Mr. Beak, " Freedom of Election."

.
M . JOrEPH then propotei "The health o' Mr. Efra t /, 4
m.,,,,
whom he characterised as one who was ever attentive!teithe
progress of useful and valuable, though unostentatious,:.
reforms, and particularly alluded to his attempts at ameliora;-;:
tion of the criminal code and his Prisoners' Counsel Bill.
The toast was received most cordially.
Mr. E WART, in returning thanks, observed he had stood
by his Learned Friend, Mr. O'Connell, w:.en he resisted the
coercion of his country, and lie hoped soon to sec equal jus-
tice Mono to much injured Ireland.—(Cheers.) He (tlr.
Ewart ) had tlic conscioui pride of reflecting that his public
c ndoyt had been that of an hunc.3t neut.-to hid
b ?en ejected Irvin Liverpool by the bribery of his
opponents, and the venality , of their instrument;;
and shou'd it be his fate to go back into the House of Com-
mons, he would have the satisfaction of knowing that no sordid
motives hid procured
.him the honour.--( Cheers.) If, on
the other hand, he should not be so su:eessful, he would con.
sole hiirself with the reflection that he bad not bent to any-
thing d shounrable, and would retire with perfect contentment
into private life.--( Cheers.) He urged the parishioners of
Maryle:one to bestir themselves, and rescue the borough from
the disgracefnl infliction of a Tory Member. Would they be
under the dominion of a, party who wished to continue the
cursed Corn-laws ?—who, while enjoying the full benefits of
religious freedom themselves, would deny it: to others—svlio
for long years had refused to set the negro free—who now
wished to forge new fetters for Ireland.:—(" No, no," and
loud cheers.) Let them, then, be vigorous and persevering,
and redeem themselves from the burning indignation of their
late defeat.—(Loud cheers.)

Mr. G. YOUNG, in a brief and eloquent speech, proposed,
" General Dwernicki, and the Regeneration of Poland."_.
Drank with great enthusiasm.
General DWERNICKI shortly returned thanks.—Glee,
" Vive le Roi."

Lord Nugent having retired, and Mr. Daniel taken the
Noble Lord's place,
Mr. KFNSETT, in a very humorous address, gave " The
Ladies."—Drunk with indescribable fervour.

Glee—" Here's a health to all good lasses."
Thanks were voted to the Noble Lord, who had occupied
the Chair.
It being now near seven o'clock, the vast company ad-
journed for a short time to the fine lawn on which the cricket
matches take place, while the marquee was being cleared for
the ensuing ball. Meantime, they were not idle. Several
dances were immediately formed upon the grass, in which
many joined with greatglee. About eight o'clock the dancing
commenced in the marquee with country dances ; while " in
the cottage on the green" the large room was occupied by
the elite of the company, with more aristocratic waltzes, and
quadrilles.
Between ten and eleven the assembly were agreeably sur-
prised by the arrival of Sir Benjamin 'Jail, who was received
with most enthusiastic cheering. The Hon. Baronet pro-
ceeded briefly to address them. He had only discovered, he
said, the mistake into which he had fallen on Monday; and
had instantly travelled with all speed from Wales :to make
his appearance among his constituents, and redeem, as far
as possible the error, for which he was sincerely sorry.
(This explanation appeared to give universal satisfaction.) lie
went on after declaring his firm adherence to the principles
which had gained him their suffrages, to express his gratifica-
tion at the interesting commemoration in which they were
now engaged, and congratulated them on the improvement in
their parochial concerns, which had been effected by the Act
the passing of which they met to celebrate. He informed
them that he had heard of an intention to put the parish un-
der the new Poor-law Commissioners—(An announcement
which'created no slight indignation)—but pledged himself to
oppose such a measure to the utmost of his power. The
worthy Baronet concluded by assuring his constituents of un-
diminished attention to their interests.
The Hon. Baronet then proceeded to mingle most cordially
in the festivities of the occasion, himself joining in several
dances. Dancing, interspersed with glee singing, was kept
up till long past midnight. Indeed it was not many hours before
morning's dawn, when the last of the joyous assemblage de-
parted.
