it has a future because of its vitality—it has a future
because its independence is necessary to the liberties
Europe.—(Cheers.)of Gentlemen, to me every oc-
casion is in the highest degree valuable where my
feeble words, without the power of eloquence—you
see I designedly employ no eloquence, but adhere
to the logical effect of a common understanding—to
me every moment is valuable where I may discuss
the matters of my poor native land, and I know you
would be so generous as to hear me ; but I am suffer-
ing, and I feel that I am not capable to speak long
without consequences, and, therefore, I shall beg
leave at once to thank you for believing in the glories
of the future of my country, to which I shall devote en-
tirely that life that has been rescued and liberated from
the bondage of Austria. My liberation, in the
first place, is due to the noble sentiments of the
Sultan—(Cheers)—who, at the beginning, in spite
of all the threats and menaces of Russia and Austria,
conserved and protected my life, and the lives of my
companions. Afterwards, but with sorrow, he yielded
to the pressure of circumstances, which forced him
for a time to imprison us, though, with a noble in-
spiration and respect for the rights of humanity, in
defiance of all the threats of the despots, to restore
me to liberty. I give myself to you as I am; might
I live a thousand years, I should never forget any
wrong that is done to my people—my country ; but,
as to myself, it is a part of my nature that I do not
like to look upon past griefs but only as instructions
for the future; and partly by this consideration,
partly because I have a knowledge, a conviction
that the people of Turkey have vitality yet—l have
a conviction that the future of the Turkish empire is
not contrary whatever to the political interests of
Europe, but is rather strongly and intimately con-
nected with the interests of England and Hungary,
and, therefore, out of this consideration, and also
considering the conduct I met with there, I left Turkey
with the sentiment that I had no remembrance of the

bulwarks of national independence."—(Cheers.)
Turning to to the eulogy of the guest of the evening,
he said he hoped the time would come when Austria
and its immeasurable infamies would exist only in the
pages of hi•tory ; the liberation of millions of serfs
would make him, all Protestant as he was, the patron
saint of the hearths and hearts •f his countrymen.
He was going across the Atlantic, to a country the
only one which had sent a vessel for his liberation. It
was a noble and a generous act, and when he reached
that country he trusted the people there would re-
member that his proudest motto was—he bid his coun-
try's slaves be free.—(Loud cheers) He concluded
an eloquent speech by proposing the toast, which was
drank with loud cheers.
Mr. FALVEY, of the Hampshire Independent, re-
turned thanks.
The following toasts were then proposed :
" The Mayor and Corporation of Southampton ;"
by M. Pulzky.
"A closer union between the Nations that have in-
herited the tradi►ions and practice of Free Institu-
tions ;" by Mr. Willcox, DI.P.
"The Corporation of London, and the Municipal
Institutions of England ;" by Alderman Wire.

and practice of free institutions may be spread far sod

" The Magistrates of the Borough ;" by Mr.
" The Town Clerk ;" by the Mayor.
" The Ladies ;" by Mr. Alderman Palk.
The company separated at a late hour.

THE MERCHANT AND NAVAL SERVICE:A very
useful Act of Parliament was passed in the late session, to
extend the benefits of certain provisions of the General
Merchant Seamen's Act relating to apprentices bound to
the sea service by boards of guardians of the poor
in Ireland, and to enabled such guardians to place out boys
in the naval service. By this Act, boys chargeable to unions
may be apprenticed and their outfit provided, and boys_ in
the receipt of parish relief, who are desirous, may be placed
out by the guardians in the naval service of her biajesty and
their outfit provided by the funds of the union.

sufferings of my captivity, but only of the benefits
which I have received. I declare that Turkey will
find in me ever a faithful friend, so I acknowledge the
conduct of the Sultan. I must also return my deep-
felt thanks for the warm interest that was taken in

my liberation by the Governments of Great Britain

and the United States—(Cheers)--which was in so

high and generous a manner supported by public
opinion in both countries, and was even sanctioned
by the Congress of the United States. It is there-
fore with broken strength, but with the deepest feel-
ings of my heart, that I propose the toast—" Eng-
land, the United States, and Turkey."—(Cheers.)

Colonel LAWRENCE said—l thank you for the kind
sentiment, so fur as the United States are concerned,
which you have just drank; but I feel embarrass-
ment, mingled with regret, that the American
Minister himself is not present to respond, in a much
abler manner than I can pretend to do, to the senti-
ment expressed, as well as to partake in the hospitality
which you have afforded to our illustrious friend. I
shall not venture to occupy your time with any
lengthened remarks ; but as a member of the Ameri-
can legation, and as an American citizen, I cannot
but give some expression to the feelings which rise
instinctively to my heart on the present occasion.
Our illustrious guest is animated by the same
feelings which animated the patriots of my native
land—men who dared all, who endured all, who suf-
fered all, for their country's good, and to excite the
country to hold aloft the banner of constitutional law
and independence. And he finds himself present
among an assemblage of Englishmen, defenders of the
same liberties for which Hampden died and Sydney
bled.--(Cheers.) With regard to my own country,
I can say that America is too young to have forgotten
her own struggles, or to refuse to feel a generous
sympathy fur the constitutional struggles of another
nation. And I can well remember the gloom which
spread over the countenance of every American when
the news reached them of the surrender of Comorn

and all its disastrous consequences, as they felt that
the cause of despotism was about to triumph and to
ride rough shod over the liberties of a nation, though
they still hoped that right and justice would ultimately
triumph.—(Cheers.) I shall not say more than to
assure your illustrious guest of the welcome that he
will mfet with in my country ; throughout the whole
of the United States there is but one heart, and thati
heats with sympathy for the name of the illustrious
Kossuth. The right hand of ft'llowship Will
