With respect to the subject of reform—not the
least of those three principles--I, at least, may pos-
sibly be allowed to excuse myself from entering
further on the matter upon this particular occasion
—(laughter and cheers)—for whatever my sins or
offences may have been, and, doubtless, they have
been many both in omission and in commission, no
man has said that any undue reserve or restraint in
the quantity or the quality of my utterances has
been among these errors. That question possibly may
sleep for awhile, hut it will have a certain and an early
resurrection. (Loud and repeated cheering.) I will
say of it no more than this, in connection with the
object cf the present celebration, that I think
there never was a time during the whole period
of our recollection, at which we could have had
greater reason to deplore the loss of Mr. Richard
Cobden than during the lengthened and acute
controversies which have attended this question.
(Cheers.) As respects the subject of peace, it is one
to which I think we may refer with eminent satis-
faction, because it is one of those which illustrate
the character of Mr. Cobden's mind, as a mind qua-
lified and destined to exercise an influence far beyond
the limits of the circle of his professed adherents and
admirers. The ideas which it was his fortune to pro-
pagate were, for the most part, ideas bearing upon
them the broad and simple stamp of truth in such a
form that they were certain to obtain possession of
the mind of the country at large, and to re-appear in
the opinions and even in the political conduct of
those who might little know to what source they were
indebted for their originality. (Cheers.) I would
venture to say that in the present tone of English
policy, in the tone of words which many of us may
have heard last night from the distinguished person
that now holds the office of Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs, it is not difficult to trace the bene-
ficial, though gentle, and possibly unperceived, in-
fluence of the views and ideas of Mr. Cobden. (Loud
cheers.) With respect to the third of those topics I
have named—the topic of retrenchment, Mr. Cobden
was one of those who, so far as I ever was able to
understand his views and proceedings invariably con-
templated this subject with a far higher than any mere
pecuniary object. (Hear.) It was not the mere saving
of money which he sought in recommending the ap-
plication of the principles of public thrift. Public eco-
nomy was with him nothing less than a moral prin-
ciple. Public expenditure not needed for the public
wants he believed to be a political injustice and amoral
wrong. The temper and the spirit of Mr. Cobden, with
respect to questions of public economy, was a temper
and a spirit that ought to be maintained, encouraged,
and propagated in this country. And we must raise
one common lament, though without a murmur, over
that dispensation of Providence which, we might be
tempted to say, has removed him from among us
before his spirit was exhausted or his work was
done. (Cheers.) And as we cherish the recollection
of Mr. Cobden as the apostle of free trade, we re-
collect what was the condition of that controversy
when Mr. Cobden first took part in it. In that re-
collection we are not unmindful of the gratitude that
ever must be due to those who fought the battle in
its earliest stages. But it was given to Mr. Cobden

I Ile work of a highly cultivated mind. The characters
are well drawn, ills language goo the interest fully sus-
tained, and the moral of the.istory excellent."—Messenger,

TEETH AND PAINLESS DENTISTRY.-
The fear of pain and dread of ope•ation inherent to all
deter very many to whom ARTIFICIAL TEETH are of
vital importance from availing' themselves of ttie services of
a dentist. In a practice founded in 1830, and now ex ending
over greater part of the kingdom, an experience unequalled
has been obtained, enabling us to offer even the most sensi-
tive sufferer a system of dentistry perfect in its absolute
freedom from
pain, a sPecialite t ertaining only to our prac-
tice, and for which her llajesty has granted her royal letters
patent. This system embraces the non-interference with all
stumps, however decayeJ, the supporting instead of extrac-
tion of loose teeth until they become firm and useful in mas,
tication, and the utter absence of all and every operation, so
that the most nervous person can be supplied without fear of
pain or inconvenience. These teeth are cheaper, more dur-
able, na, ural, and comfortable than any yet produced.
Consultation free. Teeth from ss. Sets irom to 25 ga.,
warranted.

PROVIDENCE ROW NIGHT REFUGE,
FOR
____

HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN,
14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C.
Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor
from all parts aro admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, andhave
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.
SITBSCRIPTIONS aro earnestly requested, and will be

to perform a part peculiar to himself, to develope the
full force of the argument, to show not only its
generally useful bearings, but to show how freedom
of intercourse went to the interests of all, to divest
that subject wholly of a question between class and
class, and to point out that freedom, the dispensa-
tion of Providence itself, could not be improved by
our poor imaginations. It was Mr. Cobden that
first presented, I think, in its entirety the argument
relating to freedom of trade in connection with the
subject of human laws, but he did not do it as a
philosopher sitting in his studio; he did it as a man
addressing man ; he did it as a politician address-
ing every citizen ; he did it, so to speak, as an agi-
tator addressing those who were capable of being
moved by agitation. When he had taught the repeal
of the Corn-laws, he cast aside all those compara-
tively narrow and vulgar ideas which seemed to re-
present that great measure as beneficial, indeed, to
the mass of the community, but yet possibly inju-
rious to some portions of it ; and he held firmly, on
the contrary, that the prosecution of intercourse
with perfect freedom would benefit all alike. But
when he came to the subject of intercourse between
countries, there, I must say, it appears to me in a
still more especial sense Mr. Cobden may be called
the apostle of free trade and the ideas which belong
to it. To such a height of things did he attain, that,
without losing the confidence of his fellow-country-
men, he obtained that of foreign nations in a great
degree not less absolute. Perhaps the confidence
bestowed in him by those abroad was even more
free and unrestrained than that reposed in him at
home. In the case of the treaty of Commerce with
France, we shall greatly mistake the character of
Mr. Cobden if we suppose that he merely did that
which in his absence might have been done by some
other man. I don't believe another man besides
Mr. Cobden breathed upon earth at that epoch, or
now breathed upon earth, who could have effected

that great measure. (Cheers.) It may be possible
to discuss, and beneficially for man, those questions
relating to money and wealth, but Mr. Cobden was
a mind incapable of entertaining the discussion of
any question without fully weighing and estimating
its moral aspects and results. Great as is his name,
great as is his fame, with respect to the additions
that he has made to the power and prospect of the
nations, and to the comfort and material happiness
of classes of all individuals, greater still, as I be-
lieve it is destined to be in consequence of the man-
ner in which he has persevered and taught these
higher uses of the material instruments and opera-
tions with which he was chiefly conversant, making
them, as he ever did, to the best interests and
higher destinies of mankind. (Cheers.) My lords
and gentlemen, you found the Cobden Club, and
among your fellow-countrymen you will maintain
the knowledge—you will cause, as it were, the echo
to sound of that distinguished name. You are right
in such an undertaking, for it is just towards him
and honourable to you ; but you will have fellow-

labourers by thousands and by millions. It is not
upon bronze and marble that the renown of such a
man as:this depends. You need not by visible signs
recall him to the eyes of men ; his name is written
in their hearts. The progress—the movement—of
mankind is towards a state of things in which the
fruits of his labours, so far from being cancelled and
effaced by the lapse of time, will be felt more. They
will be appreciated with more lively gratitude from
year to year ; and those who, a generation hence,
may meet in this room or elsewhere, and those pro-

bably who, after centuries have passed, may look
back upon the history of the critical time in which
we live, will not be less alive, but even mure alive,
than we are to the genius and to the acts of Mr.
Cobden. (Cheers.) In that confident anticipation,

which I may possibly have expressed in sanguine
language, but which rests upon thought and deep
conviction, I close my remarks by requesting you
to drink in silence the revered memory of Mr.
Cobden.

The toast was accordingly drunk in silence.
Professor GOLDWIN SMITH proposed " the Health
of Earl Russell."

Earl RUSSELL, on rising, was received with loud
cheering. He said--I rise to return you my most
grateful thanks for the honour you have done me.
Certainly I will not add a word to that eloquent
panegyric Mr. Gladstone has pronounced upon Mr.
Cobden. I revere his memory, and have only one
thing to say, and that is rather a cause of pride for
myself than any testimony to his worth. When I
was lamenting to Mr. Cobden that he had not
entered into the public service, feeling that his
presence in the council of the Queen would have
been of the greatest use, not merely to the
country and the Executive, would not merely
have added authority to his position in Parlia-
ment, but would have been of service to mankind
at large, he answered me by saying that if I had
been at the head of the Administration he

would not have refused to accept office. (Cheers.)
It is, perhaps, an act of undue vanity on my part to
repeat this anecdote, but upon this occasion in cele-
brating the memory of Mr. Cobden, I could not help
saying how deeply I felt that my sen timents on public
affairs, and the course I have pursued in public life,
were such as to be not unworthy of the confidence
of Mr. Cobden. (Cheers.) And now, perhaps,
although I am rather afraid of fatiguing you, I may
in this crisis of European affairs, be permitted to
state something as to the principles by which I was
guided in the direction of the foreign affairs of this
country while they were placed in my hands. I
have heard it said I was too fast to give advice.
(A laugh.) What I was particularly anxious about
was not to give bad advice to foreign nations. (Hear.)
Upon coming to the foreign Office I found upon
authority I could not doubt, that when the Grand
Duke of Tuscany had asked what course the English
Government would advise him to pursue, he wastold
that if he would leave his capital, and if he would
refuse the advice which the best patriots of Tuscany
were ready to give, he might rely that the Powers
of Europe wouldrestore him to his seat in the Grand
Duchies. I was told, moreover, that the King of
the Two Sicilies had been advised above all not to
join with the patriots of Italy—not to assist the King
of Sardinia in his attempt to free Italy from foreign
influence and power, but to keep aloof from any such
attempt. I thought it my duty to say openly—to
say at Vienna, at Turin, and in public meetings in
this country—that I thought Italy had a right to
choose her own form of government—(cheers)—and
that whoever attempted to interrupt it, England, at
all events, would respect that right. Now, in so
saying, I adopted no more than that which is a
maxim laid down by all the greatest writers on
the law of nations? but at the same time a maxim
that had been despised and trodden under foot
from the year 1815. We have seen what hap-
pened. We were told that we ought to interfere
to prevent the invasion of the kingdom of Naples,
and I said that the English Government would have
no share in such an interference. (Hear, hear.)
We thought the King of Naples should defend his
own throne ; if the thousands of troops and the nu-
merous navy which he had at his command could
defend him, far be it from us to attempt to assist in
any endeavour to overthrow it. But if he could not
do so, if his throne was built upon sand, if the affec-
tions of his subjects had departed from him, we, on
the other side, would neither use nor countenance
force in his support. The consequence was, as you
all know, that when Garibaldi entered Naples with
some 12 persons as his companions, 4,000 Neapoli-
tan troops marched out and abandoned the city at
the command and dictation of Garibaldi. Such has
been the case with respect to Italy in former years.
We have seen lately a league which I myself do not
wonder at—a league between the King of Italy and
Prussia, with a view of delivering Venetia from the
yoke of Austria. Venetia had been founded a thou-
sand years before by Italian industry and enter-
prise. Its palaces have been reared by the arts of
Italian architects ; the walls of those palaces have
been covered by the works of Titian, Bellini, Tin-
toretto, and the most able men in the Italian art.
The songs that had been sung in the streets were
the songs of Italian poets, andi own it seemed to
me if there were a question of national rights,
Venetia had a right to belong to Italy. (Loud
cheers.) It was, perhaps, natural that Austria, by
a very equivocal treaty in 1798, having obtained
the government of Venetia, should determine not
to yield it except to force. This, for my part, I
can well make allowance for and forgive, but it
does seem to me intolerable that, being engaged in
war against Italy, the Emperor of Austria should
have proposed to give up Venetia, not to Italy,
but to the Emperor of the French. (Hear, hear,
and cheers.) The Italians have felt the in-
sult very deeply. (Cheers.) They have, natu-
rally, been indignant, not that they were in any
way moved, or otherwise than grateful when the
Emperor of the French, having fought for them
at Solferino, had Lombardy delivered to him,
and gave it over to the King of Italy. But in
this case, when the Emperor of the French had
taken no part in the war, they thought, and, I think
naturally, that if the Emperor of Austria was pre-
pared to give up Venetia, and not to hold by the
title he had, he ought to have given it up to Italy,
and not to any other Power. (Cheers.) Indeed the
Emperor of the French, anxious for peace, desirous
to restore peace to Europe, actuated, I have no
doubt, by the best motives, proposed an armistice on
the occasion to Italy and Prussia. The terms did
not look promising, and could not but be distaste-
ful to Italy ; and, for my part, I regret that, how-
ever commendable on the part of the Emperor of
the French that interference might be, the English
Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs should have
gone shares in that proposition, and should thus
have done that which must be offensive to the Ita-
lian people. (Cheers.) This, I say, is the view I
have cherished for many years. Knowing the Ita-
lians, their genius, their love of independence, the
spirit of honour which animated such men as Ca-
your, Ricasoli, La Marmora, and others, I had
hoped to see Italy taking her place as a United
Power among the nations of Europe, no less re-
spected and no less powerful than the best among
them. (Cheers.) Having said this much with regard
to Italy, I have only to say a few words to the same
effect with regard to Germany. I believe the time
has come, not when treaties should be thrown aside,

but when the treaties that are not in conformity
with the wishes of the inhabitants of the countries
they attempt to rule, should be altered, and to a
certain degree superseded, in order to make their
Government conformable to the people over whom
they are placed. (Hear.) I remember hearing a very
great man, no less a personae than Napoleon the
First, say what he thought would be the issue of
the Congress of Vienna. He asked me what I
thought would be the issue of the Congress, and I
had no opinion to give, being then a young man,
totally ignorant of any speculations upon such a
subject. He said the issue will be this, all the Powers
will have assigned to them the territories their troops
occupy. (A laugh.) Afterwards, when the treaty of
Vienna came to be produced to the world, it was
very much what Napoleon I. had said it would be.

Lombardy was occupied, Venice was occupied, and
the whole of Italy was occupied by Austria. Poland
was occupied by and assigned to Russia. But with
regard to many of those countries, I think the time
has come when their inhabitants will have to be
heard. If the Governments are conformable to the

wishes of the people, they will be confirmed and
maintained ; if they are not so conformable, we shall
find, not popular insurrections, but armies led by
skilful commanders, and under the direction of able
Ministers, which will take care not to impose, by
the vulgar arts of conquest, new Governments, but
which will make those Governmentsconformable to
what they know are the wishes

His LORDSHIP, after a brief pause, again rose,
and said that he had the pleasure to propose " The
Health of the widow of that excellent man, Mr.
Cohden," whose memory they were celebrating.
(Cheers.) She was a lady of the highest virtues,
and worthy to have been the wife of so eminent a
man. (Hear, hear.) He begged to ask them to
drink her health.

The toast was received with the most enthusiastic
marks of esteem.

Mr. J. S. MILL, in proposing the health of Mr.
Gladstone, said—lf Mr. 1-luskisson opened the long

and arduous campaign ;if Sir R • :pi %

stone will be for ever remembered as he who com-
pleted the conquest, and who not only made freedom,
of trade and industry the universal rule of the ill-
stitutions of our country, but by the brilliant suc-
cess of his application of it is fast converting the
whole of Europe to its principles. (Cheers.) There
is another thing which this is, perhaps, a suitable
opportunity for saying. Veneration for the memory
of Mr. Cobden is not confined to any section of
the Liberal party, nor even to the Liberal party
itself. We have not bound ourselves by any nar-
row articles of orthodoxy—ours is a broad church.
The bond which holds us together is not a political
confession of faith, but a common allegiance to the
spirit of improvement, which is a greater thing than
particular opinions of any politician or set of politi-
tians. And if ever there was a statesman in whom the
spirit of improvement was incarnate—of whose career
as a Minister the characteristic feature has been to
seek out things which required or admitted of im-
provement, instead of waiting to be compelled or
even to be solicited to it--that honour belongs to the
ex-Chancellor of the Exchequer and leader of the
House of Commons. I propose " The health of the
Right Hon. William Gladstone." (Cheers.)
Mr. GLADSTONE, who was greeted with cheers,
expressed his sincerest thanks to Mr. Mill, for the
kind way in which he had given the toast, and the
company for the reception they had been pleased to
pay it. He was the more grateful to Mr. Mill be-
cause he could not forget that he was one of the most
distinguished and powerful critics of the day—(hear)
—and, at the same time, possessed the most gener-
ous feelings of the heart. (Hear, hear.) He felt
that he (Mr. Gladstone) was little worthy of the
situation in the House of Commons in -which cir-
cumstances, much more than any merits of his own,
bad placed him. He had received many encourage-
ments during his career, and more especially during
the late arduous struggle through which they had
gone. (Hear, hear.) After expressing his thanks
to Earl Russell for the support which he had received
from him and his other colleagues, the right hon.
gentleman referred to the distinguished career of the
late Premier and the important services which he
had rendered to the country, which, he said, had
made him one of the most eminent of English states-
men. (Hear, hear.) He also stated his thanks for the
support which he had obtained from the House of
Commons. Above all, he and his colleagues had the
knowledge that they had served a Sovereign whose
every wish was for the benefit of her people. (Loud
cheers.) They were, therefore, sustained amid the
exhausting labours of public life. After some fur-
ther remarks, Mr. Gladstone cordially thanked the
company for the kindness with which they bad drunk
his health, and concluded by proposing that of the
Right Hon. Mr. Villiers, which was also received
with the most cordial expressions of esteem.
The company shortly afterwards separated.

An American Opinion of Ireland.
—O-- _—
Americans hear so much of Ireland in their own coun-
try—of the green flag, the green sod, the brightgem of the
ocean—of the woes of the oppressed Celtic race, that, sick
of the very name, they seldom, when here, take the trouble
of crossing the Channel to look at an island which furnishes
half the emigrants to the United States. This is a pity,
for not only is the country worth seeing, but political
questions are connected with it worth study and thought.
The Irish in America are accustomed to talk and to write
in a grandiloquent strain, yet they do not exaggerate the
beauty of their native isle. Although it lacks the
cultivation and finish of England, Nature has cast its hills
and streams in a far lovelier mould. Those who have seen
Ireland only from the windows of the railway carriages
know nothing of the charming features where, in a small
space, will be found the rich landscape of England and the
wild grandeur of that of Scotland. Fifty years ago Dublin
was a handsome city, but the Dublin of fifty years ago was
the Dublin of to-day. The world has moved half a century
ahead, and our standard has risen with the rise of the civi-
lised world. Paris has been almost rebuilt—London is in
process of rebuilding—all the large towns of England are
daily improving, and cities are rising from the virgin
forests and untrodden prairies of America—but Dublin
remains the same. Still, if the city does not improve the
features of the country cannot retrograde, and the Bay,
hills, and fertile land make up a picture worthy of a more
energetic race. If the troubles of the Continent increase
more attention should be turned to a land which spreads
out so many attractions to the tourist. To an American
this isle should have especial interest, for it has given to
his country a largo portion of its bone and muscle—aye,
and of its brains. Though the green isle weeps more than
it smiles, at such a season as this it receives its visitors
with lavish sunshine. Nor is the traveller, who seeks to
combine creature comforts with bracing air and exciting
change, at a loss if he remains on well-beaten tracks. Tho
mail train from Euston-square to Holyhead is aptly tetteed
the " Wild Irishman," rushes like a comet through
the most populous parts of England, with its train of

whirling and eddying dust, licking up its water supply
as it runs. Everything is shunted out of the road, and
the line cleared, for this awful dash which carries the
astonished traveller into the centre of England almost be-
fore he has shaken himself into his seat. From Holy-
head he crosses to Kingstown like a flash of light, in a
steamer all engines and paddles. In Dublin numerous fino
hotels open their hospitable doors, and chief among these
is that handsome and newly-decorated establishment the
Gresham. In Dublin the tourist chooses his route. He
can loiter over the lovely county of Wicklow amid such
scenes as the Dargal and the Vale of Avoca. He can look
over a glorious expanse of well-wooded country, taking in
the whole city of Dublin and across the Channel, while
standing on the hills that border the two counties. Along
the banks of the streams that flow south to the sea there
are spots that would be widely known if those spots wore

. -
in England. Rich demesnes line the banks of the Suir
and Blackwater, and a green that is bright even amid the
vivid green of Ireland. Away to the west one is lost in a
wilderness, whose scraps of cultivation only add by their
strange contrast toa sterile savageness as dreary as that of
Labrador. The tourist may roam along the bleak wild
shelving rocks of Galway, which run in rugged points far
into the Atlantic, where they appear out at sea like black
pins' heads circled by their belts of snowy foam. Or he
may stand on the bold promontories of Sligo, where the
big blue waves roll in beneath him—no green impostors
of the Channel—but the unbroken swell of the broad
Atlantic. We grant that he who seeks the wild beauties
of Glengariff, or the savage scenery of Donegal, must not
look for the comforts of the great hotels. But comfort and
scenery are to be found in Ireland in one spot in a degree
scarcely equalled on earth. A country might be divested
of every other charm, and still have its share if that one
was equal to Killarney. Letthe traveller try the Railway
Hotel, or any other of the comfortable houses, some placed
in the most picturesque localities, and he will have no
cause of complaint. Considering how short the season is,
and all the hay that can there be made is like the veritable
hay, only to be made during the few months of
sunshine, not only is the comfort great, but the
charges low. We fear that the only result of the
Fenian redemption of Ireland, besides giving to a num-
ber of aspiring patriots the cold comforts of a gaol, has
been to leave in solitary silence the numerous chambers
