MAJOR-GENERAL WILLIAMS AT
LMSFORD.

On Thursday Major-General Williams arrived in Chelms-
ford, ou his way to Great Beddow, where he wif proceeding
to pay a short visit to his old comrade in arms, Major
Skinner. On Monday, at a public meeting held in the Towu •
hall, it was d ,terinined that a complimentary address should
be presented to the General on his arrival in the town. Ac-
cordingly on Thursday the General was met at the railway
station by a number of iufluential inhabitants of the town
and district, and conducted to the Shire-hall, where the ad-
dress was read by the Rev. C. A. St. John Miidmay.
General WILLIAMS said —Ladies and gentlemen, in accept-
ing the invitation of my friend and old comrade,
.Major
Skinner, I was in hopes that I should have been allowed to
enter his house quietly, unseen, and unnoticed• (cries of
" No, no")--but you have willed it -otherwise and it is my
duty to attempt to thank you in fitting terms for the honour
you have this day done me. (Loud cheers) You have been
pleased to tell me you entirely approve of my conduct in the
'difficult position I was placed in in the East. I can assure
you that to hear such words from my countrymen and my
countrywomen is most consoling, and the more so because
they are borne out by the military opinion, I may say, of a
great part of Europe. I received in Russia, in Prussia' and
in France, proofs of the same sympathy and approval that
you have shown me from military men of those nations.
(Cheers.) Therefore lam induced to hope that the opi-
nion you (have expressed of the conduct of myself and
my aides-decamp, one of whom is here, is a just one—
that it was such as the occasion called for, and that we
performed our duties and executed the sage instruc-
tions given us by the allies, with all the firmness and
consistency that the means in our power enabled us to do.
(Loud.cheers ) I say this bee tuse there have been lately at-
tempts made to detract from that defence, or rather to prove
that we were wrong in defending Kars at all. I will not eater
into that question here. It is a military one. But I will
remark that in defending Kars, which, as the result proved,
wan unassailable, except by famine, we saved from the enemy
a great part of Asia Minor, and perhaps the Turkish capital
itself. (Cheers.) Therefore, anything that has been written, or
may be written upon that subject will not detract one iota
from the defence that was there made. (Cheers.) I will say
no more on that. I will now come to another subject which
I wish to bring before you—that is, the constancy, courage,
and valour of the Turkish soldiers who stood by the side of
me in that defence. I think this is an act of justice. I feel it
would not be doing justice to those who fell in thie defence
if I wore to remain silent on this point. (Cheers.) I believe
that where there is that military virtue, courage. much can
.be hoped for. This has been questioned. I received the other
day a letter from a kind friend of mine who has a different
opinion on this subject, and he says —" I cannot agree with
you that there is hope for Turkey from the courage of the
soldiers, for look at Saragossa, and the way in which Portu-
guese soldiers fought under British officers." I have not an-
swered that letter, but I say ho has confirmed my on' • •
for that urge shown at Saragossa, and by the Portuguesepl
on,
soldiers, has preserved them iu their independence to thi;da
(Cheers.) Whether they are misgoverned or not, they are la-.
tions. The French are not in Saragossa, the Spaniards are not
in Portugal. I mention this in regard to Turkey because I
believe our policy is to be patient with that nation when it is
engaged in reforming itself. Wo know what the difficulty was
of carrying out reforms in this country, and wo must have a
fellow feeling for them. (Cheers.) I will now turn to another
point. Yon say at the end of this address that you wish mo
prosperity in my future career. Now, on my first arrival at
Dover I expressed to the people, in reply
all was darkness as to the future to an address there, that
words
whofichouhia• mveileitredesttharobluisghh-
ments ; and I uttered a few
this laud, I am led to believe, with considerable effect—" Woo
n
to the nation that neglects military art." (Cheers.) Now
another and new era has dawned on us. We see establish.
meats formed to remodel our army ; we see the numbers that
were preserved after the pease, and we have every hope that
such ameliorations and regulations will be introduced that we
shall have in this country a force that shall be capable of
keeping
the enemy from us, that we may not have our hearths
polluted by foreign soldiers, and no one during our lives or
the lives of our children may hear the foreign soldiers say,
" Woe to the vanquished !" (Cheers.) These few remarks,
I trust, will not be considered irrelevant to the' occasion. As
you had expressed a wish for the prosperity of my future
career, I have said this to show that in or cut of Parliament
I shall support those measures that may give weight to the's°
considerations, have a tendency to protect ourselves as a -ita-
tion, and defend the greatest accumulation of wealth ever col-
lected in any country. I do not want ono man more. (Cheers.)
will not detain]. ion er • but thank you from my heart
for the honour you havegdon'e me, and the cordiality of the
reception you-have given me, and the sympathy you •have
expressed in the difficulties by which I was surrounded, as
embodied in this address. (Cheers.)—Chelmsford Chronicle.

cember 3d, 1847. Gentlemen,—I am happy to bo able to
inform you that the person for whom your Revalenta was
procured has derived a very great benefit from its use ; dis-
tressing symptoms of Dropsy, Dyspepsia, and Constipation of
long standing have been removed, and a feeling of restored
health induced. Having witnessed the beneficial effects
in the above mentioned-case I can with confidence recom-
mend it, dzc. JAMES SUMMAND, late Surgeon, 96th Regiment.
Silvington Rectory, Cleobury Mortimer, Salop, Feb., 1851:
Gentlemen,—I was in a miserable state of nervous irritation,
but now I am entirely free from it; and in the enjoyment of
good health. Your Food is everything to be desired in
my case, as I feel as if I was in a new state of existence;
and I recommend others similarly affected to try it, for its
effects are most surprising and agreeable.—Rev. Joux Joses.
