mentioned sAnething to Mr. O'Connell about Lord Dudley.]
I have nothing to do with duels. Lord Dudley, or of .Lord
Lyndhurst either, in his private capacity. The only obser-
vations I have to make against him are in his public capacity.
—(Cheers.) I ask, then, can there be aqthing more deci-
sive of the inability of the Lords to legislAtt- for the country
than their choosing a man with such a clittcter, a nameless
adventurer, as the bell-wether of the gang, their leader. I
say, never was there furnished so conolusive a specimen of
the state of imbecility into which the House of Lords has
, fallen. I say it is a most decisive evidence of the state of
the House of Lords, and of theiv.party in England, that they
who talk of their pride, their hpour, and their race—far this
is the great glorification of the House of Peers—have se-
lected this will-o'-the-wisp`—this skipping-jack of. every
party—this chance-Chantellor—who thereby was '6reated a
Peer, to be the leadeg of the ancient nobility of Britain.—
(Cheers.) I ask,ioen, what reliance
.carhe placed in
such a House of Lords ; what respect
,g,flin they hope for
from public opinitfi, when such a personke is their leader ?
—(Hear, be and cheers.) You always judge of the
flock by th abby sheep that leads it ; and thus Lynd-
hnrst is the damning spot on the robes of the Peerage of
the empire. This Lord Lyndhurst, who is neither an
Irishman nor an American, but a kind of what you call a
mongrel—of neither country—a man who, if the House
of Lords were strong in the estimation of the country,
would break it down, and who is the man best suited to
keep his order in a state of degradation. Sir, I was de-
lighted 'to see a meeting of the people of Lambeth called
the other day, for a reform.of the House of Lords. But
the. Tory-Radicals crept in there, and how very ridiculous
it was to see two or three worthies coming down to a meet-
ing, • calling themselves Radical Reformers, and moving
amendments, having for their object what would injure the
purpose for which they had met ; yet so it was, that these
affected patriots, instead of joining the well-judging inhabi-
tants of Lambeth, and connecting themselves with them,
commenced by proposing their eternal-truth principles, and
by making an attack upon all parties, as if they could hope
to carry any proposition unless they joined one or another
of them.—( Hear, hear.) Was I not right in naming
such men Tory-Radicals ? (Hear, hear.) I think
it is an excellent name for them. But to come back again
to Lord Lyndhurst, could any thing be more fearful, or was
there any thing to be dreaded worse by the country than
the accession to power of an administration with Lord
Lyndhurst as" a member of it ?—(Hear.) lam certain,
Sir, that I shall be responded to by the whole country that
nothing is so much to be dreaded by every individual ex-
cept the maniac Orangemen, as a government of which he
is a member.—(Hear.) Good God! what would be the
feelings of every man who possesses auy regard for his
country, if they heard that a government was again in
power with that man as its leader, who had gone beyond in-
jury, and had fixed insult on the people of Ireland ? But
when I speak of such a scene as this, do I fear that it will
be realized ? By no means. What is the state of the
English registries ? I have it from the best authority that
they are all strongly in favour of the people of Ireland ; the
Irish we know are in our favour ; aye, and the Scottish re-
gistries, with ono or two exceptions, are in our favour ;
and if a dissolution were to-morrow to occur, our majority
would be materially increased, if that dissolution took place
under the present administration. It is, therefore, our
duty to support the Government now in existence.—(Hear.)
Sir, the position in which the operatives of England are at,
present placed is one of great and trying moment to them-
selves. In the potteries of Staffordshire the most barba-
rous tyranny has been exercised by the masters, and the
effect of which is, that forty thousand people have been
driven out of employment, because they would not submit
to the tyranny of those men, not because they looked for
higher wages. The manufacturers there will not employ
the operatives unless they are willing to work at a lower
rate of payment than heretofore, and unless they also bind
themselves in those contracts for 12 months ; and why, I
ask, are they able to propose such terms ?—(Hear, hear.)
They see that the usual amount of orders from abroad
has much decreased, and that the injury resulting from
the confusion which exists in the monetary systems
of the Continent and of America, is likely to fall on
them, and they, therefore, wish to bind the operatives
in fetters of iron.—(Hear, hear.) They are aware also
that the price of provisions has increased, whilst wages has
been diminished. In England the crops have in a great
measure failed. In Ireland they are deficient. In Scotland
there has also been a failure. In England, Sir, however,
the usual supply has been greatly diminished, and, if there-
fore in the times that have gone before us, it was unsafe
for a Tory Ministry to attempt to hold the reins of power,
I regret the reason why it is, but it would now, and ' under
present circumstances, be impossible for such a misfortune
to occur, and thus, although I regret the cause, yet I am
happy that a cause does exist which will prevent Ireland
being placed under the domination of a Government with
which Lord Lyndhurst could be connected.—(Hear.)
Sir, I declare solemnly to Heaven, that it is my firm opi-
nion that any attempt on the part of the English Tories to
restore themselves to power would be followed by an effort
by the English operatives to go further than reform, and
that they would endeavour to effect a revolution.—(Hear.)
Sir, I am glad to see the way which this Association is
making.—(Hear, hear.) Let Lyndhurst look at what he
has gained by putting down the Norman schools of agita-
tion. Let him regard the results of his sedative for Irish
agitation, and find whether his blundering sedative has
produced the species of quiet at which he aimed.—(Hear,
hear, hear.) Sir, I have great pleasure in seconding the
resolution.
The motion was carried with acclamation.
Mr. BOYSE moved that the resolutions should be in-
serted in the Morning Chronicle, The Sun, and the usual
Liberal papers.

Mr. dOIiPINGRR though ho did not wish to give money
to the enemy, yet as it was important that the Tories should
see Mr. Boyse's admirable resolution, would suggest that it
should be inserted in all the Dublin papers, and in the Stan-
dard, and some other of the leading Tory papers iu London.
Mr. O'CoriNELL would not give the enemy a penny, but,
if he was permitted, he would move as an amendment, that
the resolution should be inserted in the Morning Advertiser,
Morning Chronicle, The Sun, Globe, and the Courier.

The question was put and carried.
Mr. O'CONNELL understood that another tithe victim,
who had perished in prison, would be buried next day, and
he rose to say that he hoped the Trades Union would at-
tend his funeral, and take care to keep order.

There is now living
.in good health at Hebden-
bridge, a female child, eight months' old, daughter of Wm.
Jackson, silk spinner, of the great weight of 2st. 61b., and
measuring 14 inches round the thigh.—Halifax Express.

An American paper, which takes the following an-
nouncement from a foreign journal, gives it as a polite way
of dismissing a public officer :—" The Count de Bonibelles,
Austrian Ambassador in Switzerland, has received leave of
absence for an unlimited period."

A very ridiculous occurrence took place in Kelso on
Wednesday, which attracted much attention, and created
considerable amusement to the idlers and gossips who col-
lected to witness it. A fond pair, said to be from the vil-
lage of Smailholm, undaunted by the snow-storm which
was raging in all its fury, ,had arrived at Kelso, on their way
to Coldstream, for the purpose of being promptly united in
the bands of wedlock. Whether, however, it was the in-
clemency of the weather, and the depth of the roads, that
had acted as a cooler on the fair one's love, or some other
cause—true it is, that on reaching Kelso, she protested
against proceeding farther ; and, notwithstanding- the en-
treaties of her " swain," and the jeerings of the crowd
whom this unlucky and premature strife had drawn around
them, she persisted in her resolution to return home, leav-
ing her fond lover to wonder at the extent of that fickleness
and inconstancy which poets say is inherent in woman.

WHEAT IN FRANCE COMPARED WITH LONDON.
The highest price of Wheat in Paris, on the 26th November,
was 2t francs per 1 hectolitre, equal to 38s. 3d. per English
quarter. The highest price in London is 70s. for the best
Essex and Kent wheat, showing a difference of 31s. 9d. per
sack, or 81 per cent. ; and the 705., which buys but eight
bushels of wheat in London, is in Paris the price of 141 bushels
of the best wheat.

W. Houstoun, printer, Fleet-street

Sir Edmund and Lady Blackett have been enter-
taining a party of friends at their new mansion, Matfen
1311, near Newcastle.

A few days since a great alarm was created in the
Grande Rue by the cry of fire. An unfortunate young
man, aged 25, named Louissaint Drout, an idiot from his
birth, who was born lame and dumb, had been left alone
by the fire ; his clothes having taken fire, and being un-
able to help himself, be perished, literally roasted to death.
His father was working very near the house, but did not
discover the dreadful state of his son until alarmed by the
smoke from his body, which, issued from the door, and called
him, not, alas ! until too late, to his assistance. When he
went in, he found all the clothes burnt off the body, the
flesh burnt to a cinder, and the body frightfully convulsed
in the last agonies of death.—Eco de In Meuse.
RATTLESNAKE AND TOBAcco.—One of the
greatest dangers that beset the travellers in this part of
their expedition was the vast number of rattlesnakes which
infested the rocks and portages, and on which the men
were in danger of treading. They Were often found, too,
in quantities about the encampments. In one place, a
nest of them lay coiled together, basking in the sun. Se-
veral guns loaded with shot were discharged at them, and
37 killed and wounded. To prevent any unwelcome visits
from them in the night, tobacco was occasionally strewed
around the tents, a weed for which they have a very pro-
per abhorrence.—Asloria.

On Tuesday morning their Royal Highnesses the
Duchess of Kent and the Princess Victoria and suite passed
through Canterbury from Ramsgate, on their return to
London, changing horses in the Guildhall-street. On the
Royal cortege arriving at Rochester, the hurricane was
raging with great fury ; and in consequence of the accident
to the Union coach, which had been hurled against the
parapet of the bridge by a violent gust of wind, the fears
of the Duchess were raised for herself and retinue, and she
determined on remaining at Rochester for the night. The
Royal party slept at the Bull, and continued their journey
next morning.

A friend one day said to the celebrated physician
and anatomist Petit—" With your anatomical knowledge,
you ought to cure all complaints." " That is true (an-
swered the Doctor) ;" but, unfortunately, we are like the
porters, well acquainted with the streets, but totally igno-
rant of what passes within the houses."

On Wednesday se'nnight two young men were tra-
velling between Stretham and the toll-bar, when one of
them thoughtlessly threw away the remains of a cigar he
had been smoking, without first knocking the fire out of it,
and heedless where it might fall. The wind was blowing a
heavy gale at the time, and carried the cigar, alight as it
was, upon a large quantity of haulm. A boy fortunately
saw the transaction, and ran to the place just in time to
snatch it out, thereby preventing the whole of the straw
from bursting out in a blaze. There were several stacks
of corn, and a ff,w cottages nearly adjoining, which must
inevitably have taken fire, as the wind was in that direc-
tion, had not the lad acted with the promptitude he did.—

CAMBRIDGE.—The University has rejected, in
the Regent House, the Grace for granting 3001. to the
building of churches. A- majority of the whole number
present have recorded their votes against it, and have shewn
that they were not to be led away by the cry of " Support
the Church." There was no lukewarmness towards the
Church ; but they adopted the maxim "swan cuique,"
and resolved to support it by legitimate means, and from
proper sources. The question is not whether the object be
laudable, but whether this was a fit appropriation of Uni-
versity funds.—lndependent Press.
One of those remarkable phenomena, of which se-
veral have within the last few weeks been wit-
nessed in the British Channel, we mean a water-
spout, was seen from this' island on Friday last. It
was first discerned at the distance of some miles to the
north of Harm ; and the wind being 'north-west, it pro-
ceeded in a south-easterly course, passing through the Great
Russell, and thence going on towards the Deroute. Fiom
the foam that it occasioned on the surface of the water,
,
and its smoky appearance at the top, many persons took it for
a steamer ; but the rapidity of its progress, which seemed
equal to that of a swift horse, soon undeceived those who
viewed it attentively but for a few seconds.—Guernsey 'tar.
RAILWAY SPEED.—We have not a doubt that
before the expiration of three years from this time, the
mail will be convened from London to Liverpool in five
hours at furthest, and that. the vehicles, containing pas-
sengers, will not occupy more than seven or eight hours in
performing the same journey. We do not rest our con-
victions on this subject upon the newspaper accounts of the
extraordinary rate at which certain locomotive carriages
are said to have been recently propelled by way of experi-
ment—inand
which, if the published uncontradicted ac-
Poo, a much more rapid speed counts are to be depended u
has been attained than that which we have assumed as the
maximum rate at which we expect the mails to travel at no
distant day. In the newspapers it has been asserted that
the new locomotive machine, manufactured by Mr. Hack-
worth, of New Sheldon, had been tried on the premises,
and propelled at the rate of seventy-two miles in the hour,
and that another engine destined also for St. Petersburgh,
and constructed at Newcastle, had been propelled at the
rate of sixty-six miles and a half in the hour. We can
conceive no reason, therefore, why forty miles an hour, or
two hundred miles in five hours, may not be regularly
accomplished.—Liverpool Mercury.
The Iberia steam-ship, which left the river on
Thursday, had on board 400 boxes of arms for the service
of the Queen of Spain. In all 50,000 stand of arms have
been forwarded by this conveyance, completing the supply
of 100,000 stand, which our Government engaged to fur-
nish to Spain. One-half et her present consignment is to
be lafided at Cadiz, and. the remainder at Malaga. The
freight is stated to be 4/. 10s. per ton.
Bath has resumed its usual season of 'gaiety and
cheerfulness. The Master of the Rooms, Mr. Bellamy, has
been unceasing in his exertions throughout the summer in
making that superb establishment worthy of the distinguished
company that patronise it. The season may be said to com-
mence with a series of musical promenades, similar to the
soirees of Paris, under the able direction of Loder, whose
name is a host in itself.
