the greatest delight in being called upon to second the
resolution.
The CHAIRMAN put the resolution, which was carried
unanimously.
Lord J. RUSSELL moved tho fourth resolution,
viz.:—

"That the objects of the committee of the Havelock
Memorial Fund, of which his Royal Highness the Duke
of Cambridge is the president, be approved, as recorded
in the committee's resolutions of the 20th and 29th
January last."
The noble lord said the eloquent speeches they had
already heard rendered it quite unnecessary for
him to detain the meeting with any lengthened
observation. He felt certain that mainly owing
to the firmness and resolution of Sir Henry Havelock,
India had been saved to England. (Cheers.)
In addition to his invincible bravery, Havelock possessed
all the inestimable qualities of a Christian soldier—
(cheers)—and England had much to be proud of in
the extraordinary achievements he had worked
out in India. If the country only estimated
his deeds as they deserved, they might rest perfectly
assured that the bright example of Havelock would be
nobly followed, and thus it would be proved that the
highest qualities of human nature might be found in the
profession to which the gallant gentleman belonged.
Sir W. F. WILLIAMS, Bart., of Kars, seeonded the
resolution. After all the eloquence they had heard
that afternoon he felt there was nothing left for him to
say, for what could he say that would add in any way to
the admiration in which the memory of the gallant gene-
ral was held by all whom he now had the honour to
address. He had mixed amongst large numbers of
soldiers, and in every place he had heard but one
opinion of the merits of the late Sir H. Havelock.
All concurred, without the slightest exception. in
awarding to him the highest honour. (Cheers.) When
he recollected how gallantly Lncknow had been relieved,
he would say, in conclusion—may all so circumstanced
have a Havelock to relieve them. (Immense cheers.)

The resolution was carried unanimously.
The Rev. W. BROCK, in an eloquent speech, moved
the fifth resolution, viz. :
" That the committee of the Havelock Memorial Fund
be requested to coatinue their exertions to carry out that
object to the fullest extent that the subscriptions con-
fided to them will admit, and with the least possible delay,
consistently with the receipt of funds from parties in India,
and other distant possessions of her Majesty."
Sir W. HuL3E felt great pleasure in seconding the re-
solution, which was put to the meeting and carried.
Sir J. GRANT moved the sixth resolution, viz.:—

" That it is most desirable that the extent of subscrip-
tions should be each as to enable the committee, after the
fullest consideration, to appropriate any surplus fund,
after the erection of a statue, to such further object as
shall seem most completely to satisfy the public view, and
to harmonise with the sentiments of the late General."
