STROUD, FRIDAY. ;
The Right Hon. E. Horsman last night attended
a second meeting of the electors and non-electors of
Stroud in the Subscription Rooms of that town.
The attendance was much more numerous than on
Wednesday afternoon, and a large body of the
working classes were present. The proceedings,
though not of a turbulent, were of a very exciting
character. The right hon. gentleman on entering
the hall was greeted with mingled cheers and
hisses. Mr. S. Marling was called to the chair.
The CHAIRMAN, in a brief speech, introduced the
right hon. gentleman, and requested a fair and im-
partial hearing for all who might be anxious to
address the meeting.
Mr. HORSMAN (who on rising was again received
with symptoms of disapprobation from his consti-
tuents) said,—l present myself to-night not to make
any lengthened or detailed statement such as I made
yesterday, but rather to listen to any statements
which you may wish to make, and give any ex-
planations or answers that you may require. From
what occurred yesterday I gather from the resolu-
tion that was passed that there were two main
questions on which I was condemned. The reso-
lution was moved and seconded by two deservedly-
respected members of the Society of Friends, who
in their speeches condemned me mainly on two
grounds. The first was that by my speeches on
questions of foreign policy I had taken a course
very strongly at variance with the principles and
objects of that society; and, secondly, that I had
been much too nnministerial in votes and speeches.
(Laughter and interruption.) As to the first of these
charges, I must remind you that I never professed
anything but opposition to the policy of those prin-
ciples which the Peace society profess. On the very
first occasion on which I stood here, when the
question was to be decided whether I was to be
your candidate and representative, Mr. Fewster
made a speech in which he said his only objection
to me was that my views and principles were so much
at variance with his own on the subject of peace.
(Question) I have a great personal respect for the
members of the Society of Friends. (Laughter
and derisive cheering.) I know that their prin-
ciples are pure, that their motives are Christian
and praiseworthy—(hear, hear)—but, as politicians,
I honestly avow that I think them the most perni-
cious and most mischievous of 'all denominations.
(Uproar and interruption.) If their power were
at all equal to their will, the existence of England
as an independent kingdom would not be worth
six months' purchase, (A perfect storm of groans,
hisses, and hooting.) There is this particular cha-
racteristic about them which shows how the most
amiable and best of men, when they push a prin-
ciple too far, may be led into inconsistency; that
while the Emperor of the French is confessedly the
representative of war in Europe,—for has he not
been the cause of more bloodshed and more carnage
than any other man, and is he not now promoting
bloodshed and carnage before the walls of Gaeta ?
(Continued interruption.) He finds in this coun-
try his friends and advocates in the representatives
of the peace party. (Cries of "No, no," and
" Question.") There have been in our time two
wars in Europe, one in the Crimea the other in
Italy. Whole hecatombs of human lives have been
sacrificed, and the Emperor of the French, next to
his uncle—whom we defeated nearly half a century
ago—has been the greatest scourge of the human
race in modern days. Yet, while he has not another
friend in all Europe ; while the armies of England
are at this moment kept up to the highest state of
efficiency from the fear of him ; while he threatens
every Power, while he embarrasses every exchequer,
while he disturbs commerce all over the world, we
find that it is in England alone he has advocates,
upholders, apologists, eulogists, and, strange to
say, this representative of war finds them in the
Peace Society. (Renewed uproar.) I say that to
me it is a matter of pride that I have assisted, and
assisted not unsuccessfully, to arouse this country
to the danger which threatens it from the aids of
1.1 a If T Rll.l C.....r0a by my constltuentsfvc
that conduct, I can only say that their opinion
differs entirely from the collective opiniofi of all
England. (Cries of "No, no," followed by renewed
uproar and confusion.) Instead of feeling that I
am lowered in the estimation of the public by that
censure, I think it rather reflects on those who have
passed it upon me. (Cries of " Oh, Oh !" and groans.)
The other point on which I am condemned is this,
—I have been too independent of the Ministry in
my votes and speeches. But when I stood here to
have it decided whether I was to be your represen-
tative or not, I had been 17 years in Parliament. I
had taken an active part in Parliamentary affairs,
and the ground on which I was recommended was
that I had always been independent both of Mini-
sters and of party. It was in the exercise of that
independence that, with your approval, I assisted
to eject the Ministry of the Earl of Aberdeen for
the disasters of the Crimean war. It was in the
exercise of the same independence that I subse-
quently joined in the censure upon and assisted to
eject Lord Palmerston from office on the Conspi-
racy Bill; and while I did so, I did it in very good
company, because I went into the same lobby with
half his present Cabinet. (Laughter.) In the
exercise of the same independence, two years ago I
told the Liberal party and the leaders of the Libeial
party that they were making a great mistake in
neglecting the opportunity of amending Lord
Derby's Reform Bill, and I told them that they
were deluding the electors by withholding the op-
rortunity of giving them franchises which they
would not afterwards be able to afford them, and in
the exercise of the same independence I told the
Ministry when they formed the new Government
that they had made a promise of reform which they
would not be able to fulfil, and therefore they were
taking office under false pretences, and I have:main-
tained towards them the same independent position
which I bad always taken on previous occasions.
(Interruption and uproar.) If I am to be commended
and elected because when I was a young man in
Parliament, and perfectly inexperienced in Parlia-
mentary matters, I formed my own opinion, why am
I, after 25 years of Parliamentary experience, to give
up my own judgment and opinions because my con-
stituents aro stricken with a sudden homage for
the Ministry—(groans)—a Ministry which in the
last sox: ion gave them certainly a master manufac-
turers' treaty and a middle-class budget, but per-
petuated the tax en the necessaries of life to the''
poor operative classes, and cheated the unenfran-
chised of reform. (Hear, hear, and cheers and hisses.)
I decline to do so, and if I am to be censured for
that course of proceeding I say that I would a
thousand times rather be censured now when I am
right—(hisses, groans, and uproar)—then obtain
your applause when I was wrong. (Renewed hisses.)
And inasmuch as undeserved censure is praise in
disguise, I take the vote of censure yesterday only
as showing that on the question of peace and the
question of independence I was acting consistently
with what I have always professed and always
practised; therefore I think it the highest compli-
ment I could have received. Loud laughter, min-
gled with hisses end cheers.) I
asked for something
yesterday of the electors which I did not get, and I
will ask it of the non-electors now. (A Voice, "You
won't get it." Laughter.) I am sorry for that, be-
cause what I asked for wee—nni • lf you
so
will not give me justice I am very rry, for ask
justice.
for that, and that only. (A Voice, And you have
got justice.") I have come to meet face to face any
one who has a charge to bring against me. All I
asked yesterday was that the electors should hear
me before they judged me, and how did they act?
They came down with a ready cut and dried reso-
lution, and I hope I don't use too strong a term
when I say that resolution began w,th an untruth.
(Hisses.) It began with these words :—" That,
having ' heard' Mr. Horseman." (Laughter.) Will
anybody who prepared or spoke to that resolution
tell me that it was not prepared before I entered
this room, and before I began my speech? Am I
not therefore justified in saying—I don't wish to
use too strong a term, I don't wish to offend you,
but I tell you the truth when I say, that the words
of that resolution are self-evidence of untruthfulness
and hypocrisy, (Kisses, groans, and great uproar.)
While it pretends that I was heard, and that the

Mr. HORSMAN.—The resolution certainly is car-
ried, but by so narrow a majority—(loud laughter)
—that I heartily congratulate my friends, the ad-
vanced Liberals, upon their victory. And I don't
grudge :it. lam not the least surprised at it. I
fully expected it. (A Voice,—" And you fully de-
served it." Cheers.) Before I tell you how I mean
to act upon it, I beg most sincerely to thank you
for two things,—first, for your kind indulgence
towards me to-night; and, next, that at least there
were so many gentlemen more than I expected who
were kind enough to hold up their hands against
the resolution. I do not grudge the advanced
Liberals their second victory—their great triumph.
I must say that they have had some severe trials of
late, and I shall be glad if, at Christmas time, any
triumph over me can give them a merry and a happy
Christmas. I must say that I have felt for them
very much during the last six months. (Oh,
oh'!) It has been said that a good man struggling
with adversity is a spectacle for the gods ; but I
have sometimes thought for the last six months
that the advanced Liberal struggling to conceal
his agonies, while the abortive measure of Re-
form was being strangled, instead of being a
spectacle for the gods, was rather a subject
for the benevolent attention of the. Humane
Society. (Great uproar.) As to the resolution,
I will tell you why I do not intend in conse-
quence of that resolution to resign my seat.
(Groans and hisses.) If you do not know when you
have got a good servant—(loud laughter)—l know
when I've got a capital master. (Laughter and
cheers.) I have received a great deal of kindness
from you, and I assure you that, although not a
very old, I am a very attached servant—(" oh, oh,"
and laughter)—and an old and good servant, if his
master in a fit of intoxication—(groans and uproar)
—or a fit
,of passion, turns him off at night, it
would be very ungrateful if he took him at his
word and did not wait to see whether he would not
be sober and sorrowful the next morning. (Laugh-
ter and cheers.) I have the greatest hopes of you,
and wore than that I sincerely believe—you may
think it vanity—but I sincerely believe that if I
were to resign my seat you might go a great way
and fare a great deal worse. (Roars of laughter.)
Therefore if you are disposed to verify the old pro-
verb, and cut off your noses to spite your faces
—(" oh, oh 1" and laughter)—l will not be so un-
grateful as to assist you in that disfigurement.
(Oh, oh, and groans.) If it be any pleasure to my
friends the advanced Liberals to pelt me with their
speeches and censures on the platform, I shall be
happy to give them many opportunities of doing
so. (Loud laughter.) I promise to meet them
again this time next year, and I do not despair then
of some of them proposing a vote expressing their
renewed confidence in me, thanking me for not
taking them at their word, and hoping that I. may
represent them for many years. (" Oh, oh," laugh-
ter, and cheers.) That hope I do most cordially
entertain. I thank you for your past kindness ;
I thank you for your present indulgence, and I
hope I shall have many future opportunities of
thanking you for your increasing confidence.
(Laughter and cheers.)
A vote of thanks was then passed to the *air-
man, and the meeting separated.

Mr. HORSNU --BecauseN it is notorious that the
leading members of the Liberal Cabinet were strong
anti-reformers. (Groans, and loud cries of "No.")
Who made the strongest sr'ech in favour of Lord
Derby's Bill, and for the retention of rotten and
nomination boroughs ? Why, Mr. Gladstone.
With Mr. Gladstone and Lord Palmerston against
Lord John Russell and. Mr. Bright a good Reform
Bill could not have been passed. And with respect
to the charge of impeding the progress of the bill of
last session, all I can say is that the delay was not
attributable to me, for I did not open my lips upon
it. (Hear.) [The right hon. gentleman then pro-
ceeded to comment upon some observations made by
the preceding speakers, which we aro unable to
give at length. He said)—With respect to the
French getting the command of the Channel, people
are too apt *to forget that every day of the year
there are goods to the value of £50,000,000 belong-
ing to England, and two of our admirals daring the
last session told the House of Commons that the
French Emperor, if he had the command of the
Channel—(cries of "If, if," and laughter)—no one
doubts that he would have it if a war were to break
out soon, and all he would have to do would be to
put three or four iron-plated ships at the chops of
the Channel, and then ho could intercept every
vessel, and stop our cotton and corn, and other
articles, and out.starvensrnot v

Bridges censured the fo
resolu-
tion respecting the paper duty. On that occasion
I went into the lobby with
Mr. Gladstone, Mr. M.
Gibson, and Mr. Bright, and I do not see how I
am liable to censure for acting along with his
friends. (Cheers.) With respect to my conduct
towards Lord Palmerston's Government great in-
justice had been done me. The first time that I
ever made a speech that brought me into collision
with the noble lord was when I was living on the
most intimate terms with him, and when I was a
' strong supporter of his Government. In 1846 I
condemned and protested against his system of
secret diplomacy. I never lost sight of that ob-
jection, and have since that time repeated it. I as- i
sisted in driving out Lord Aberdeen's Government,
and when Lord Palmerston's was formed he offered
me the Secretaryship of Ireland, and I accepted the
offer, believing him to be the most fitting Prime
Minister for the country, when the matter rested.
between him, Lord Aberdeen, Lord J. Russell, and
Lord Derby. I voluntarily resigned that office some
time afterwards. I voted against Lord Palmerston
on the Conspiracy Bill, and that vote was acquiesced lin by the whole nation. 1 objteted to the ababstractl

The traffic receipts on railways in the United K L'Fdom
for the year 1860 amounted on 10,270 miles to £27,576,70,
and for the year 1859, 0n9,880 miles, to £25,576,117, show-
ing an increase of 390 miles, and of £2,000,666, in the re-
ceipts, or 7.8 per cent. Of this increase £214,881 was con-
tributed by the London and North-Western; £209,289 by
the Midland; £199,728 by the Lancashire and Yorkshire;
£128,946 by the North-Eastern; £91,738 by the Gat
Western and Shrewsbury lines ; £78,592 by the London
and South-Western ; £58,189 by the South-Eastern ;
£56,277 by the Great Northern; £53,234 by the London,
Brighton, and South Coast ; £52,789 by the Manchester,
Sheffield and Lincolnshire; £52,317 by the Great Southern
and Western of Ireland; £19,879 by the Caledonian;
£17,965 by the West Hartlepool; £37,246 by the Taff
Vale ; £36,513 by the West Midland ; £34,990 by the Glas-
gow and South-Western; £27,306 by the North Stafford.
shire; £27,086 by the South-Western ; £20,417 by the
Eastern Counties; £18,806 by the Stockton and Darling-
ton; £16,863 by the Newcastle and Carlisle; and £10,849
by the Midland Great Western of Ireland ; making to •
gcther £1,553,800, and leaving the remainder, £446,866 as
the aggregate increase on all the other lines.
The capital expended on those lines amounted to
£329,827,200, or £32,500 per mile, against £322,219,100, or
£32,603 per mile at tho corresponding period of the preced-
ing year, showing an increase in the expenditure of
£7,608,100, while the increase in the traffic receipts was
£2,000,666, This must be considered as a very satisfactory
result of the year's operations, having increased the divi-
dends of several railways for the first half of the year, and
will, no doubt, likewise contribute to increase the dividends
of the principal railways for the second half of 1860. It is
probable that the aggregrate working expenses of the year
will amount to about £13,100,000, leaving £14,476,783 for
interest and dividend on the capital expended, which will
give the whole an average of about £1 Bs, per cent. for the
past year, being the highest average return on railway
capital since the year 1317.
