LAW INTELLIGENCE-12711s Day.)

(Beforo Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.)

This bankrupt was described as of Lincoln's-inn-fields,
bookseller, &c., and this was a certificate meeting.
The accounts by Messrs. Hart Brothers and Hayles shows
debtor to creditor £`',ll7; to-ditto holding security £8,557.
Creditor by good debts £658 ; property £9Bl. Debts in the
hands of creditors, £917.
There was no opposition.

Mr. C. E. Lewis(Harrison and Lewis) for the bank-
rupt, said that he (bankrupt) had been in business for 36
years, and although it was true that there was a deficiency
for some time, he had c3ntinued business with the sanction
of creditors to the extent of £B,OOO. A great cause of the
failure was the trade unions and combinations, whereby
the expenses had been increased 25 per cent.

His Honour said that these combinations were highly
injurious, but the bankrupt ought not to have gone on so
long.

Mr. Lewis said that no creditor complained.
His Honour said that, under the circumstances, he would
grant a certificate of the second class.

POLICE .IiiiTELLIGENCE.—( This Day.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

MURDEROUS ASSAULT ON A. WOMAN.—Michael Denny,
a boy living at 6G, King-street, was charged before Mr.
Mansfield with being concerned, with a woman not in
custody, in assaulting a female named Honorah Harty.
A certificate was handed to the magistrate as follows :
" Middlesex Hospital, Aug. 26.
" This is to certify that Honorah Harty has received a
scalp wound. " W. WILKs, House Surgeon."
Prosecutrix said she lived in Archer-street, and was
having a few words with pris,ner's mother, when he came
up and kicked her in the back severely.
Mr. Mansfield—Why did he do it ?

Prosecutrix—From animosity and to help his mother.
His mother then came up and struck me a severe blow on
the head with a horse shoe, cutting my head very badly
and sructhering me in blood. (The prosecutrix had her
head bound up, and her dress was bespattered with blood.)
Mr. Mansfield—The best way will be to have a remand
till Monday next to see how the woman gets on, and I will
grant a warrant for the apprehension of the woman free of
charge.

George Kelly, 71, Castle-street, wheelwright, was charged
with assaulting Allcock, 114 E, and hied £5 or a month,
and Anne Jones was fined 10s. or seven days for assaulting
Richard Cook, 96 E.

THAMES.
TOBACCO SMUGGLING.—James Wsllraven, the steward
of the Dolphiv. steamship, was brought before Mr. Wool-
rych, charged with smuggling 4lb. of foreign manufac-
tured tobacco.

Giles Hedges, a Custom-house °facer, stated that last
night he searched the prisoner as he wris leaving the Dolphin
at Irongate-stairs, and found upon him 241 b of cigars and
tobacco. The value and duty was £1 38. 6ci.
The defendant admitted he had smaggled the tobacco and
cigars, and was fined £1 3s. 6d., which he paid.
FURIOUS DRIVING— DREADFUL ACCIDENT.—John G.
Fell, stated to be a ladies' hat makerand man milliner, was
brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged with furious
driving.

Numerous witnesses der. osed that the prisoner was driving
a horse and light chaise cart in a furious and reckless man-
ner last night in the Mile-end, Another horse and cart was
driven in a similar manner. The parties were actually
racing, although the road was crowded, and the band of a
rifle corps was playing a tune at the time. A man was
knocked down by the first horse and cart, and the prisoner
then drove over him and run down s girl aged 11, who was
seriously injured. After a severe struggle he was secured.
Mr. IVoolrych commented in severe terms on the scan-
dalous conduct of the prisoner, and fined him 40s. for furious
driving. Actions will be brought against him by several
persons.

THE HARVEST.

During the past fortnight the harvest has been
rapidly proceeding throughout the country, the
weather having for some days been all that could
be desired for the ingathering of the crop. Very
great diversity of opinion is expressed by agricul-
tural authorities as to the quality of the wheat
crop. There can, however, be little doubt that the
extraordinary severity of the frosts last winter,
with the heavy rains which fell both last autumn
and in the spring, have in some districts greatly
injured the wheat. Both quantity and quality will,
in clay districts especially, be defective, while in
other parts of the country the quality will be ex-
cellent, though, with few exceptions, the crop will
by no means be a heavy one.
Under these circumstances denoting the remark-
able variability of this year's crop, it is premature
to speculate on the probable average of the yield.
The most sanguine will scarcely predict more than
an average. We incline to think that it will be
below the average.
Of the destructive progress of the potato disease
both in this country and in Ireland, there can be no
doubt. The potato crop is very bad in nearly every
part of the kingdom.
Trade meanwhile is in a depressed and languish-
ing condition. In Manchester, Sheffield, Leeds,
Birmingham, and all the great hives of industry.
our commercial prospects are far from satisfactory.
Both the failure of the potato crop and the de-
pression of trade necessitate increased consumption
of wheat. The working millions eat more bread be-
cause they have fewer potatoes, and also because
having lower wages or less employment they are
obliged to buy less animal food.
Under this state of things, our contemporary, the
Times, inserts a suggestive paragraph on " the im-
portance of a good harvest" on one day, and writes
a smart article on the same subject on the day fol
lowing. We beg leave to say a few words on the
paragraph and the article. We give the former,
and assume its correctness :
" THE IMPORTANCE OF A GOOD HARVEST.

" The cost of the imports of grain of all kinds,
as well as flour for the last seven years, were in the
year 1854, £21,760,283 ; 1855, £17,508,700 ;
1856, £23,039,422 ; 1857, £19,380,567 ; 1858,
£20,152,641 ; 1859, £18,042,063, making a total in
six years of £119,833,676, and an annual aveaage
of £19,980,613 paid for foreign grain and flour,
while in the year 1860 the cost amounted to the
enormous sum of £31,671,918, mainly owing to the
bad harvest in England ; but these figures do not
represent by any means the full extent to which tie
are still subjected by the harvest of 1860. They
only show what a large sum of money we have paid ;
but the payments in that year were not near so
heavy as they have been since. The official infor-
mation brought down to the end of April makes the
value of the grain and flour imported in the first
four months of 1859 £4,384,045 ; 1860, £3,913,001 ;
and 1861, £12,435,435, by which it will be seen
that we have been paying for the first four months
of the current year at the rate of £37,306,305 per
annum or £8,522,434 more for breadstuffs than in
the same period of 1860."
Now let it first be observed that we consider a
good harvest a great blessing. We plough and sow
and reap hoping for a harvest. The more abun-
dant the harvest, the more productive is our labour.
Every man, high or low, prefers having good bread
rather than bad ; good and cheap bread, rather than
bad and dear bread. But when the importance of
a good harvest to England is estimated in a financial
way, and we are told that we are subjected, in 1860,
to the payment of the enormous sum of £31,671,918,
mainly owing to the bad harvest in England, it is
probable that many readers of this statement mag-
nify the evil of this state of things, and conclude
that the country must necessarily suffer from the
expenditure of this " enormous sum " for food.
Enormous as this sum appears, let it he remembered
that it is only one pound a head ; and let it
be also remembered that the income tax, on
merely the higher and middle classes of this
country, produces a million sterling for every
penny imposed as a tax. But taking one
year with another, a great country in a healthy,
condition of trade, can never stiffer much by hav-
ing to pay something extra for the food which its
people need. How do we buy food ? Let it be sup-
posed that we pay the total amount in gold and
silver. What then ? We barter something which
we do not want for someti ing else which we do
waist. "It is said," observes M. Bastiat, in his
Sophismes Econonziques, " if the foreigner inun-
dates us with his produce, he will carry away all
our money. But what does that signify ? Man is
not nourished by money. He does not clothe him-
self with gold. He does not warm himself with
silver. What does it signify whether there be more
or less money in the country, if there be more bread
in the safe, more meat in the larder, more linen in
the press, and more fuel in the cellar ?"

But we do not produce gold and silver in Eng-
land. We buy gold and silver money with our
goods. If we have more gold to give for foreign
corn, we must give more goods for the gold which
we give for the corn. We exchange, therefore, our
superabundance of goods for the requisite supply
of food.

But, if we are to believe the slashing, dashing
writer in the Tines, all the great events of the
world depend upon a good or bad crop of wheat.
"What," says he of the thunderer, " does the peace
of the world depend on at this moment ?" Not, says
he, upon America nor France, nor Mr. Lincoln, nor
the Pope, nor the Emperor of Austria; " it depends
wholely and solely, according to human calculation
upon a few days more sunshine."
" Yesterday was worth at least two millions to
England alone. The day before yesterday was worth
quite as much. Every ray that embrowns our rust-
ling fields, every zephyr that ventilates the mass of
tall stalks, has its money value. It is a question to
us of at least thirty millions. That is, however, the
smallest matter involved in it. A bad harvest, such
as is still quite possible, although we are all hoping
that we have passed the danger, coming upon the
heels of the failure of last year, would mean famine
prices, restricted employment, suffering among the
masses, discontent, disaffection, agitation. It is not
only that we should have thirty millions more to
pay, but that we should also have at least thirty
millions less wherewith to pay them. Not vainly
did the old apophthegm link peace and plenty to-
gether, although it fallaciously transposed the two
words, and accepted as the effect what is more cer-
tainly the cause. In this country at least plenty
has never failed to produce contentment, and con.
tentment has never failed to produce peace. The
trade of the agitator has never yet thriven in Eng-
land while wages were good and food cheap.
Thanks to our open ports and our extraordinary
commercial prosperity, we have tided over one bad
harvest, and have scarcely felt it. India and
China have kept our looms working, and America
and Russia have kept out famine. Let us pray
that we may not be put to the experiment of
a second year of trial. But we are not alone.
We might have disagreements among ourselves,
but should hardly hope to find relief by
rushing unprovoked into foreign war. Such,
however, is not the habit of all nations. France
depends upon her harvest quite as much—perhaps
even more, than we do. That the harvest of 1861
in France will be rather deficient seems to be
already ascertained ; but to gather in even the
deficient harvest, and to avoid a catastrophe our
accounts require ten days of fine weather. Talk of
the Sun of Austerlitz; the fortunes of France hang
much more immediately upon the sunshine of the
next few days of August. Floods in Frauce just
now mean war in Europe and revolutionary devas-
tation everywhere. Let others examine micro-
scopiaally the warp and woof of the policy' of
Princes, and balance the resources of nations; just
at this moment we would trust more in a weather-
cock and a barometer than in all the promises of
man.
A good harvest in Europe will be not only a
pledge of peace here, but will give a hope of peace
to America. There are evident signs that the
State resources at this moment are not abundant
on either side. " Some thirty millions of English
gold might seasonably light up the fires anew, and
give an impetus to the flagging resentments of the
Northern States, as well as to the commerce of the
Atlantic cities. Sunshine—a few days of this
baking sunshine—will relieve us from the necessity
of paying this tribute, and will enable us to eat
our own bread and keep our own money." If
France should be only a little short, and if
England should have an average crop, there will
be good chance of peace in Europe for the twelve-
months yet to come. Occupied time and full
bellies will keep the world from quarreling. But the
Heavens—even the material Heavens—have more
to do with it than the passions or the machinations
of men. There is more war in a day's rain than in
an Emperor's most ambitious project, and more
peace in a morning's sunshine than even in a
treaty of commerce.' "
All this is readable, amusing nonsense. A rich
commercial nation, under an equitable financial
system, would be just as well able to buyfoodfor
its people when a bad harvest occurs, as the editor
of the Times is to pay his baker's bill when bread
is dear. But there is truth in what the Times says,
though the writer " meaneth not so." He affirms
that " a bad harvest, coming upon the heels of the
failure of last year, would mean famine prices, re-
stricted employment, suffering among the masses,
discontent, disaffection, agitation." Let " sunshine"
enable us " to eat our own bread and keep our own
money," and all will be right.
Now, why cannot England buy bread for its
people without inconvenience ? This is the reason
why. If wheat comes into the country, it may
answer th* purpose of the foreigner to take gold,

/ rather than any other commodity, in exchange: If
I gold be drained out of the country, the paper cur-
rency of the country is immediately contracted,
discounts are raised, prices are lowered, trade is
depressed, panic arises, and then succeed " re-
stricted employment, suffering among the masses,
discontent, disaffection, agitation." These effects
arose in 1819, 1825, 1847, and 1857. Why, Lord
Liverpool affirmed at one time when the distress
of the country from a dearth of money was exces-
sive, that the distress arose from the harvests
being too good. Over-production of food, he said,
was ruining the country. Again, at the beginning
of this century the harvests were much worse than
they have been since. In 1800 the scarcity of
wheat was extreme. We had then paper money
and no gold. We bought bread for our people with
our commodities, there was no commercial depres-
sion, and the speech from the throne, in the follow-
ing year, refers to " the continued prosperity of the
country."
It is not the loss of a few days' sunshine that half
ruins England. It is the action of bullionist moon-
shine, of the ridiculous, contemptible currency
crotchets of Peel andOverstone which have been, for
forty years, a greater curse to this country than
plague, pestilence, or famine.
The self-condemned fallacies of Peel—condemned
by panic after panic, and one order in council after
another—would long since have been thrown to the
winds had not the gold discoveries of California and
Austraiia bolstered up their decrepitude. Let us
tell our sunshiny and bucolic friend of the /bites
another thing. We have learned a good deal from
the Americans. They may probably after all give
us a lesson in paper money. They are now about
to i,sue Treasury notes, of small amount, made a
legal tender, and receivable for taxes. If properly
managed, these notes will be of great use to the
Federal States. And with them—come bad har-
vests or good—they may, as England did from
1797 to 1815, carry on a great war.—lierbyshire

STATE OF HUNGARY.

(From the Times.)
PESTH, AUG. 22.

This has been the day of the greatest political
excitement 1 have as yet witnessed in Pesth. Ge-
neral Count Haller arrived here at 4 o'clock this
morning, armed with the Rescript. The Chamber
was summoned for noon, and long before that hour
crowds were streaming towards it. So crowded
within and so besieged without I never yet saw it.
The galleries were filled with spectators of a higher
class than has been during this latter:part of the
session. A number of foreigners were present, and
among them, in the front row, were the Duke and
Duchess of Sutherland, who arrived here yesterday,
just in time for the decease of the Diet. The pro-
ceedings commenced by a secretary reading the
introduction of Count Haller to the Chambers, and
his authorisation as Royal Commissioner. It was
signed by the Emperor and by Count Forgach,
and said that the Diet should submit itself to
the commands of the Count Haller aforesaid, the
enumeration of whose title, offices, and decora-
tions, comprised in the document, excited some
merriment. President Ghyczy then said that
his Excellency the Royal Commissioner had
requested the Presidents of both Chambers to call
upon him early this morning at the Palace at Buda,
to receive communication of the Royal Rescript, and
that he had then given them to understand that,
unless the Diet submitted and obeyed he should be
compelled to employ military force. At this there
were murmurs in the Chamber. The President then
produced the Rescript and gave it to a Secretary to
read. It so happens that the gentleman in question
has, in reading as load as is necessary for him to be
heard all through the Chamber, a voice both hard
and harsh, and it seemed to grate upon the ears
of the audience as it enounced the dry and by no
means conciliatory sentences of the Rescript, which
was repeatedly interrupted, as had been the reading
of Count Haller's introduction, by deep and angry
murmurs on the part of the Deputies. The follow-
ing are the terms of the Rescript :
" Francis Joseph 1., by the grace of God Emperor
of Austria, King of Hungary, Bohemia, &c.
" To the faithful Magnates and Representatives
of Hungary and its annexed States, who, on the 2d
of April, 1861, were by us convoked in Diet, health
and greeting.
" Dear and loyal Subjects,—Forasmuch as the
Hungarian Diet, nowfor the last five months assem-
bled, has not corresponded to the invitations ad-
dressed to it, and as we, to our I,eartfelt regret, can-
not await, from such a Diet, useful activity in the
interests of our Kingdom of Hungary—from a Diet
which, in these extraordinary times, and to its own
greatest injury, has so greatly mistaken its high
vocation ; forasmuch as the said Diet has itself de-
clared broken asunder the threads which might
have led to a settlement of affairs—and that merely
because demands have not been complied with, the
extent and import of which rendered them wholly
inadmissible ; we, therefore, feel ourselves eompelled
to dissolve the Diet called together on the 2d of
April, and hereby do accordingly dissolve it, and
reserve to ourselves to call together a new Diet,
according to circumstances, in the course of six
months.

when none anticipated the heavy loss Italy and
Europe were so soon to sustain.

The Magnates met to-day somewhat later than
the Deputies. The Rescript and the minutes of the
proceedings of the Lower Chamber were communi-
cated to them. Count Louis Karoly, who is ober-
gespan of the county of Nyitra (the dissolution of
which committee is daily expected, by reason of
the resolute manner in which it has ignored the
unconstiTutional Central Government) rose and said
it was the time to adhere in :every respect to yes-
terday's protest, and, that as the Chamber was
threatened with forcible dissolution—a perfectly
unmerited menace—he proposed to submit to the
command. He concluded his short speech with a
cheer for Hungary, which met with ready and
hearty response. The House then separated.
In yesterday's sitting of the Lower Chamber,
Deputy Bonis, after proposing a vote of thanks to
the President for his exertions in the service of the
Chamber, a vote which was unanimously agreed
to, made some remarks as to the narrow limits
within which the Chamber, owing to its incoal_
pleteness, had been compelled to maintain itself
with respect to legislation, and concluded thus :
" We know already, and that not merely by re-
port, that the hours of the House of Representa-
tives are numbered, and that its dissolution is at
hand. But as it cannot be legally dissolved until
the taxes are voted and the accounts examined, I
call the attention of the hon. House to the neces-
sity of taking its measures previously to dissolu-
tion."

M. Deak then rose amid loud applause both
from the Chamber and the galleries—the participa-
tion of the latter proving an unusual degree of ex-
citement, for I have observed, in all the sittings of
the Hungarian Diet at which I have been present
that the spectators abstained from the practice to-
lerated in some Southern European Chambers of
making demonstrations of their feelings of appro-
bation or disapproval. Ihete was a gale of wind
blowing, and the canvass awning over the skylight
of the Chamber had got loose and flapped to and
fro, making so much noise that the first part of M.
Desk's speech was scarcely audible in the gallery.
It is reported as follows :

" The dissolution of the Diet is to be anticipated,
and is more than probable, although we as yet have
no official news of it. If affairs were constitution-
ally conducted, one would know beforehand the
period and the manner in which the diet would be
closed. But, as experience shows that this matter
is not constitutionally treated by the supreme power,
so we are ignorant at what moment the dissolution
may happen. In accordance with the hon. deputy
who last spoke: I hold it to be important and even
necessary that, in these last moments of the Diet, we
should utter our protest against all that hitherto has
been, or hereafter may be, illegally done. And
since to-day is ours, while to-morrow is still in the
hands of destiny, we should not delay and postpone
that which to-morrow, perchance, we may be unable
to do. (General movement of assent.) I abstain
from further details, but I hold it necessary thatthe
House should resolve on a Protest, and, with its
permission I will read the project of one which
appears to me suitable."
There were cries of " Hear," and M. Peak read
as follows :

" Whereupon we remain, with our Imperial and
Royal Grace, &c., " FRANCIS JOSEPH.
" Done in our Imperial capital of Vienna, in Aus-
tria, Aug. 21, 1861."

M. Bernath, the old and respected Deputy of the
Left, who proposed the unanimous adoption of
Deak's Address on the Bth inst., rose when the read-
ing of the Rescript and the noises which greeted its
conclusion had terminated, and remarked that what
before had been but an accredited report had now
become a dismal fact, and the Diet was dissolved
without any practical result having been derived
from the session. He should have to invent words to
express the grief of the nation, but, as it was, they
they could but submit to the command. M. Bernath
having inadvertently used a word which expresses
more than mere submission, and may be better
translated as a bowing of the knee, this, in the
excited state of the Chamber, led to an indignant
outcry, with exclamations of " No, no ! Never !"
" We do it only by compulsion !" and the
like. M. Bernath explained ; and Deak, who
had been received, as well as President Ghyczy
and Baron Vay, on their entrance into the
Chamber with loud applause, now rose amid en-
thusiastic shouts o'f "Eljen Deak!" He said that,
after the reading of the Imperial Rescript, and after
what had been heard from the respected Presi-
dent concerning the dissolution of the Chamber
(this referred to the menace of employing force),
further discussion was out of the question. They
could not oppose resistance to military force. " Let
us hold fast by the Protest," he concluded, " which
both Houses adopted yesterday." Whereupon the
whole Chamber rose in a perfect tumult of excite-
ment, and, as if inspired by the bold and fearless
tone in which Deak had spoken, Eljen Beak
21jen a haza ! " Hurrah for Peak ! Hurrah for
our native land !" were shouted by both Deputies
and galleries with loud accompaniment of clapping
of hands. The President rose to speak, ringing his
bell—to which I must say, to the credit of this
very young Parliament, I have never yet witnessed
even a brief disobedience. While the minutes of
the sitting were being drawn up by the secretaries
the President made a few valedictory remark's, in
the good taste and tone which at all times secure
respectful attention and the sympathy of his audi-
ence. No Hungarian Parliament, he said, had ever
laboured under such difficulties as the present one.
The demand of the nation for its rights is loud and
general. Passing to personal affairs, he thanked
the Chamber, in his own name and in the names of
the vice-presidents and secretaries for the support
it had afforded them, and expressed his conviction
that each and all of them had fulfilled their duties
to the best of their abilities. The minutes of the
proceedings were then read and approved, and the
House rose for the last time. Dnk was one of the
first to go out, and as he passed through the midst
of his brother Deputies he was greeted and cheered,
and everyone was eager to get a word from his
mouth or a grasp of his hand. Through the
outer halls and down the wide staircase, and through
the garden in front of the building, he was still
pursued by the applause and good wishes and
greatful expressions of his countrymen. Any
man might be proud of such a triumph, of such
heartfelt praise and general sympathy, so pure and
genuine, and so completely spoikaneous, unsolicited
by any meretricious glitter of accomplishments, and
offered as a tribute to worth, patriotism, ability,
and integrity. Deak's admirers love to speak of
him as the Hungarian Cavour, with whom he cer-
tainly has some points of similarity ; and to-day's
scene forcibly reminded me of similar triumphs of
the great Piedmontese statesman, witnessed in days

" As the Diet can legally work only upon the basis
of the Hungarian Constitution, it did not delay to
re-establish and fully secure that basis.
" The integration of the Diet prescribed by law,
and the re-establishment of the responsible Ministry
as well as of the suspended laws, were before all
things essential to enable the Diet to occupy itself
with legislation. Those measures therefore have we
before all things urged, but our reiterated addresses
remain without result, and so the scope of action of
the Diet was limited to the protection of the rights
of the country, whose energetic defence was its
right and its duty even in its incomplete state.
" The most high Rescript has in fact broken the
thread of the mutual parliamentary negotiations,
since by essentially and arbitrarily transforming
our hereditary Constitution in contradiction with
the fundamental treaties, it sought to restrict our
deliberations within the limits and to the ground of
the Imperial Patent, whereto we cannot legally
resign ourselves.
" That most high Rescript convinced us that his
Majesty had not the intention to re-establish our
Constitution in the sense of the Pragmatic Sanction,
to which we, however, can never be unfaithful. And.
our said conviction will be further strengthened if,
instead of the integration of the Diet and re-estab-
lishment of parliamentary government, prescribed.
by law, there shall ensue such a dissolution of the
Diet as is in contradiction with the prescriptions
of the law.

" According to the 4th Article of the Laws of 1818
the Diet cannot be dissolved until the accounts of
the expired year and the Budget for the coming one
have been laid before it and been resolved upon by it-
" But this law is not and cannot be fulfilled until
the responsible Ministry is re-established and the
Diet integrated ; for, until that be done, no legal
Government exists to lay the Budget before the
Diet, which itself is incapacitated from passieg a
Budget by refusal of that integration strictly re-
quired by the law.
" The article of law referred to also orders that
the new Diet should meet within three months of
the dissolution of the old one. If, therefore, the Diet,
after the dissolution, is not called together again
withi❑ the legally prescribed time, the prescription
of the law will hereby be again violated.
" We are, therefore, compelled to regard before.
hand as unconstitutional, and as a further continua-
tion of the absolute system persevered in for 12
years, every illegal proceeding of the kind. We are
certainly unable to resist force, but we solemnly
protest against all that in such a manner may be
done, and declare—that we firmly adhere to all
our legitimately existing laws, and therefore to the
laws sanctioned in the year '4B, and which have
not been altered by the Diet; that we will regard
as a breach of the Constitution every act of the
authorities that is in contradiction to them."

Having read this protest, M. Deak moved its
adoption, and laid it on the table.
"I consider it unnecessary (he continued) to state
the motives of the proposition. Our only weapons
are the law and justice of our cause. It is an old
saying, and one which, as history shows, hardly
ever deceives, that in the end victory is always for
the just cause, and thereupon must we build all
our hopes. In order safely to tread that ground,
we must not and cannot ever, under any pretext,
quite the footing of perfect legality, for that is the
only field which, without armed power and against
armed power, we shall be able to maintain. (Much
applause.) The Diet will now probably be dis-
solved; all those who were representatives of the
people become simple citizens of our common
country. I return to private pure
conviction with the
conviction that, as the people's representatives,_ we
have done, to the best of our knowledge and con-
science, that which we owed to electors and to our-
selves, and at the same time I cherish the persua-
sion that in this respect the jurisdiction
and also individual citizens will faithfully follow
the example of the Diet. (Applause.) While hold-
ing fast by the basis of the law, abiding by it, and
never departing from it, they will neither grant,
nor obey anything which is against the law, cr
which deviates from it in any way whatever. The
jurisdictions (M. Deak referred to the provincial
councils and authorities) will work, so long as they
exist, in the sense of the law they will not commit
suicide, they will wait with tranquillity the blows
of fate. Individual citizens ought to adhere to the
law. The law gives such tranquillity to the mind
that, so long as one holds by it, one can calmly look
forward to the most grievous events, and thereby
is that quality called forth which is the chiefest in
respect of suffering—namely, to endure with
dig-
nity. That is only to be acquired through the
con-
sciousness that we are acting strictly according to
law; I recommend my project to the hon. House."
