the second part, " He was not"—an; incident un-
feignedly distressing to all. There was a family in
which he might have delighted to repose, minister-
ing ashe so welt could to their intellectual enjoy-
ment, and receiving what he so much appreciated
---the expression of their respect and love. But
duty Calling him elsewhere, he was found elsewhere,
and for seven years he knew not the blesSed cheer-
fulness of a domestic home. Not long ago he might
be found at the council table, oron the battle-field,
doing his best for his country, whatever self-sacei-
hces his duty might involve Was there a-diffieulty
to be solved, he would give himself up to its solu-
tion. Was there a hardship to be endured, he would
cheerfully endure it.' Was there a danger to be in-
curred, he would readily incur Was there a
deliverance,te be achieved, he would cheerfully en-
deavour to achieve it. As Lord. Harding° oncessid

responsibility which devolved upon him. Neither
day nor night had ho anything but the "slightest
snatches of -repose: He could not andrwould hot
rest. The Residency, with its precious treasure of
women and children, 'must, be relieved, and for
seven weeks was he with his • comrades magnani-
mously enshielding that Residency; until by tbb co-
operation of other agencies relief was afforded. So
fir his object was attained. He was s riving without

Perfectly. Does the knowledge of his condition
alarm him ? Not in the least deeree. Is his mind
sound enough and active enough to appreciate the
event now at hand ? Active enough and sound
enough beyond all doubt. Who tells us that ! His
son, who nursed and cared. for him with an assidu-
ous and faithful love. Did he say anything which
it is worth while to mention in such an assembly as
this? He did. He said to Sir James Outram,
" For more than forty years I have so ruled my
life that when death comes I meet it face to face
without fe +le" He said this repeatedly, and as his
end was approaehieg, looking his on iu the face,
he said, " Come, my son, and see how a Christian
man can die." And so he died. "He was not"
—" he was not" amongst the men whom he coeld
have helped so effectually by his counsel—" he

to rely upon his powers in the field—" he was not"
—another incident by which we are unfeignedly
distressed. The third portion of the text says—
" For God took him." Grd took Havelock, and
then we have the transition in which we may
triumphantly rejoice. If we could bring back many
of kis infantry, and ask them the subject of his dis-
course, they would tell us it was about salvation
from sin in this life, and the condemnation of it in
the life to come, and about admission to the king-
dom of heaven for all those who repent and believe
.in Christ. Many a time has he borne up men of
feeble faith by telling them of life and immortality
—many a time when death was round about them
has he spoken of their departure to be with Christ,
many a time has he said, "We may never meet
like this again, but I'll tell you where, if we believe
in Christ, we shall meet, and how we shall be em-
ployed." Although by the ruthless hand of death
earthly honours and distinctions have been with-
, held from him, heavenly distinctions have been be-
stowed, and received, and enjoyed. The baronetcy
gave no dignity. to his name, nor well the coronet
ever grace his weather-beatea brow ; but the crown '
of righteousness has actually been given to him,
and it has been granted to him to sit down with
Christ upon his throne. He died confi-
dently, happily, triumphantly, receiving the
end of his %all, even the salvation of his soul.
" God took him !" and in that transition we m.y
triumphantly rejoice. Havelock, though dead, yet
speaketh ; and he spetketh two lessons—he bids
you to understand that the busiest life you can be
leading may be, and ought ta be a religious life,
and that your religion ought to be the religion of a
Saviour : that unless you believe in a Saviour you
are lost ; but that if you live a life of faith in the
Son of God, you will by and bye die as he died.

MEETING AT NORWICH.
NORWICH, 'JAN.. 15.
.A
meeting was held here last evening to consider
the course to b 3 pursued with regard to the pro.
raised new reform bill.
Mr. J. H. TILLETT, a member of the town
council, was in the chair, and observed that it could
not be expected government would supply a mea-
sure beyond the demands of the people, or would
put before the country a reform bill which the people
did not care to have. There was in the House of
Cotnmens a strong feeling—or at all events.an un-
dercurrent against any extensive measure of
reform : and in the house of Lords there was, no
deubt, a much stronger feeling against it. A go-
; vernment would imperil its existence if it were to.
bring forward a measure which. was not supported
by the enthusiasm of the peeple generally. Although
every intelligent man should have a right to vote,
still if Government brought for Ward a measure
which would materially enlarge the franchise and
dispossess many of the rotten boroughs of the right
they now-enjoyed of returning members, thereby
neutralising large and popular -•constituencies, he
would not reject it. If a reaso`nable step was pro.
posed in advance let it be accepted, not as a settle-
ment of the whole question, but as an enhance-
ment of their power to get what remained undis-
charged of the debt due to the people. Lord. Pal-.
merston would, no doubt, bring
-forward a measure
very soon ; but it might not be introduced with
the itAketittwil of being pushed through the house.
It mikist tre brought-forward. uteroljr ge*iiitof a

Pilmerstan dare net bleak,
and when it was lirought for-iv/it'd it Might-be sn
inadequate measure. lie was not diverged, however,
to apprehend that it would be a contemptible mea-
sure, becau-e it would have been better for Lord
Palmerston to have shirked the question altogether
than to bring forward such a bill. The question
was whether they should at once request the attend-
ance of the representatives of the city, remind them
of the programme of March, 1857, and call upon
them to act up to the pledges which had
given.

Mr. F. Pion said he thought it was desirable
that a meeting should be held, and the city mem-
bers invited, but that it would not be wise to ask
those gentlemen to pledge themselves to any spe-
cific points, so that they refuse any reform bill
which did not include them all. Lord Bury and
Mr. Schneider were pledged to certain broad prin-
ciples when they were in Norwich as candidates for
the representation of the city, and it was desirable
that with the prospect of a reform bill they should
come down and reiterate their views. A great
deal of good would be done if towns like Norwich
held meetings at which their representatives were
present, and a strong expression of opinion was
elicited on reform.
After some remarks from Mr. J. D. SMITH,
Mr. COPEMAN agreed that it was not desirable to
, bind their members down to minute -details. A
document had, however, recently been issued which
contained some definite points which be thought
they might fairly approve. He alluded to the re-
cent address to the people of Great Britain, signed
by 31 members of Parliament and a great number
of the leading ref .rwers of the connt-y. This might
be taken as a starting point upoi vrwcaihysiloehisattoeinlypvroopleevueebdd_
to further action. Mr. Copeman read the address,
w
lished. Ee proposed that
the principles
should pass
resolutiona hich itwailpl pbroevirnegmoefm remembered,
in this address.

Mr. J. J. COLMAN said he had attended the
meeting in London at which the address was agreed
to, and when he left there was considerable hesita-
ticn as to whether it would b 3 adopted. He never
saw 1,-ss unanimity displayed, and he believed the
address was carried by a very narrow majority.
He hoped the Norwich reformers would not dis-
play a similar spirit, but that they would each
agree to merge some of their differences to obtain a
measure of reform. On the whole, he thought the
address must meet the views of every person pre-
sent. (Applause.)
Mr. F. Piaobelieved the meeting was thoroughly
cordial in approvsng the principles enunciated in
the a'ldress, but it should be remembered that those
prevent were the best sort of the reformers of Nor-
wich, and did not include all those connected with
the Itberd interest. He was anxious that noshing
should be done which would prevent the possibility •
of a la be, cordial, and united demonstration.
Mr. DAWBARN expre•meed his hope that no mesattra
would be accepte i which did not include the ballot.
From what he had seen at the la,t two or three elec-
tio:,s, he was convinced that the ballot was wanted
first ; everythi.g else would follow.

PARLIAMENTARY REFORM".

MEETING AT WORCESTER.
WORCESTER, SATURDAY.
. _

A public meeting convened by the Local Parlia-
mentary and Financial Reform Association, was
held at the Guildhall here last night to consider the
question of reform in connexion with the intended
Government measure. Mr. Councillor Southall
presided, and on the platform were Mr. 0. Ricardo,
M.P. and Mr. Laslett, M.P. The' hall was three
parts filled.
The CH&IRMAN having opened the proceedings,
Mr. Councillor LONGMORE moved the following
resolution in a long speech :—" That this meeting
concurs with the First Minister of the Crown that
the time has arrived when the provisions of the
Pariamentary Reform Act should be revlsed and
amended, and is of opinion that no Reform
Bill will be satisfactory to this mewing, or ought
to be so con,idered by the country, which shall not
provide for extending the franchise to every male
person of full age who shall occupy as owner or
tenant any dwelling-house or premises ; which shall
not provide for taking votes by ballot ; for re-
stricting the continuance of Parliament to three
years ; for a more equal apportionment of repre-
sentatives to o,nstituencies ; an 3 for the ab lition
of property qualification for members. And that
a petition to the legislature embodying those points
be signed by the chairman on behalf of this
meeting."
Mr. LEICESTER seconded the motion.

It being explained that the resolution proposed
by Mr. Copeman only pledged thise present to
address as a general basis for future action, it was
put and carried unanimously.
The CHAIRMAN said a communication had been
made to the members for the city, and those gen-
tlemen were willing to attend a meeting on the
subject to be held in .he last week of tne month.
With egard to the basis to be tali‘-n at that meet-
ing ihe programme of March, 1857, 'seemed the
most rea,ouable, because the Whigs concurred in
it. and of course they would not go back now.
This programme was vote by ballot, a 51.
franchise in boroughs, and a 101. franchise in coun-
ties. It would be of no use to invite the Whigs to
attend a meeting in favour of universal suffrage,
tor, of course, they would not come.
Mr. Dowsox thought there was some difficulty
in laying down a decided programme at present.
However, it would he better to do away with little
distinctions between 51. and 101. franchises, which
would only tend to endless discussions and quibbles.
Every person on the rate-boAr appeared to be a
proper innedrial vidufeaellitnog
wouldvote,
bdahe foundbelievedto ex
tihsattina
very
favour of such a plan. He considered that the rate-
book should be in fact the register of electors.
(Hear, hear.) Such a system would do away with
the waste of time and expense attending the pre-
sent plan of registration, of which he was not at all
au advocate.

Mr„ RICA.RDO, M.P., said he wal. a sincere friend
to reform, or he should not long continue member
for Worcester. He had always advocated the ballot,
and saw the necessity for it long before he entered
Parliament. What he had seen since he had sat
in the house had not altered his opinion on that
point, but had rather confirmed it. (Hear, hear.)
It was delusory to give a man the franchise unless
he was protected in exercising it—(hear, hear)—
and nothing would so well effect that as the ballot.
(Cheers.) They were all ignorant of what the new
Reform Bill was to be, but he was ready to accept
any reform as an instalment, taking the good he
could get and biding his time for the rest. They
must also have with the ballot a considerable ex-
tension of the suffrage. With regard to triennial
parliaments, he had been their member eleven years,
and had been threelbefore them, and was ready every
three years to give an account of his stewardship.
He was quite prepared entirely to do away with a
property qualification for members of parliament.
Whatever good the new Reform Bill might give he
would be grateful for, and would thankfully receive
it as an instalment.
Mr. LASLETT, M.P., thanked the Council of the
Local Reform ABSO3i ition for calling the meeting
at a time when the Prime Minister had promised a
measly e of reform, but had kept back from them
any knowledge of what it was to be. Ho thought
they ought not to accept any " instalment" of re-
form, but that they were at once entitled to such a
Reform Bill as would put the country on a safe and
proper basis. What the bill was to be it was not
for him to attempt to divine, but he hoped it would
not be illusory. They all knew that the govern-
ment of the country,.whig or tory, disliked to place
in the hands of the people that which they had a
right to possess. They wanted a responsible go-
vernment—men who were responsible for their
acts; but there was no respon.ibilt ty in the present
government. He would rather live under an ah-
solute government than under a limited
h
monarchyAd
irresponsible. This irresponsible government
in the Russian war contiactscl a contemptible peace;
and then who, he asked, was responsible for the
bloodshed in India.? That would be a question
for the next session of parliament. Without a
responsible government any reform must be
illusory. He then referred to the terms of
the resolution, of which he expressed his ap-
proyal. The government had just granted a pen-
sion of 8,0001. a year and a sum of 40,0001. to
the P incess Royal, but what di l they give to
General Havelock l Only 1,0001. a year, which was
not worth 10,0001. (A. voice, "Take it off the
fPrarinnecheisssi,, all,nand give it him.") He was for disen-
franchising with a population below
20,000, and giving the votes for the county. The
small boroughs were always under local influence.
Mr. HARDING, an operative, expressed a willing-
ness to unite all reformers on one common platform,
but he complained that the resolution was vague
and unsatisfactory. He was for " manhood,/
suffrage, and therefore moved as an amendment
the following—" That while accepting the proposal
of vbte by, ballot, triennial parliaments, abolition
of property qualification for members of parlia-
ment, and a more equal apportionment of the
electoral districts, this meeting is a opinion that
every man twenty-one years of age, of sound mind,
and not undergoing punishment for crime, and who
has been biz months resident in the district for

Mr. PIG° said a scheme might be proposed
which, while it included some extension of the
suffrage would not popularise it and increase the
democratic element. A scheme with a great many
good names had lately been proposed for what was
called an educational franchise, which would give
clergymen, dissenting ministers, Arc., distinct re-
ptetentatives like the Universities. This would
be an extension of the suffrage, but in a direction
prejudicial to the popular interest. What was ,
wanted was a bona fide extension of the franchise
from the upper to the lower classes.
After some further conversation, it was agreed
that a Reform demonstration should be held in the
city in the last week of the month ; and, on the
motion of Mr. Williams, a committee of twelve
gentlemen (with power to add to their number)
was appointed to arrange the terms of the resolu-
tions, dm, to be proposed, and to co-operate as
far as possible with all sections of the Liberal party
in the town.

Hants, Oct. 31, 1848.
Gentlemen I •
When , sincerely thank you for your kind attention.
I began taking the Revalenta. I was in as deplorable a
condition as can well be imagined. I was confined to my bed,
and so weak that I could neither stand nor walk, suffering
severely from flatulency, constipation, and indigestion, and
being compelled to have recourse to aperients every second or
third day ; and, upon ono occasion, I swallowed no less than
seven doses within twenty-eight hours, under medical advice.
There was a giddiness in my head, and a singing in my right
ear, that when I turned my head on the pillow it resembled
the sound produced by a light touch on a musical glass. I
had a pain and sort of fullness across the chest, a sere throat,
and a slight cough ; but the pain around my loins was so
great that I could not remain in the same position for ten
minutes all night long. The principal seat of the pain seemed
to be just below the ribs on my left side, and about three
inches from the backbone. I commenced taking Du. Barry's
Revalenta Arabioa morning and evening, boiled in water and
salt ; and in less than a fortnight my appetite was greatly
improved, and flatulency and constipation so far vanished
that I have not tasted a pill or drug of any kind
since. I am much stronger, can walk steadier, and
less like a drunken man, &c.—Jess VAss, Land-steward.—
