and pushed and struggled, and

way across they pushed and backed
if they would stop the progress of the
,ttat,
it was no use, there was a little fanatic in e shne
of a steam engine down below, which took them
over in spite of themselves. Therefore he exhorted
them to be earnest. Stimulants to progress were
most desirable, and these he considered in the pre-
sent day the newspapers afforded. It was a re-
markable fact, that in the columns of the Times
daily there were as many letters as in the Bible
from Genesis to Revelations. If they wanted to
improve they must read. His own countrymen had
been stimulated to energy by reading Hood's Song
of the Shirt ; and to assist the toiling sisters in this
country they had invented the sewing machine.
(Laughter.) He loved this good old land.
" In England I dear old England
Base traitors may be found,
Who would, despite her friendship,
Her fostering bosom wound.
But what though viper-like they turn,
E'en let the worst ensue,
For where there's one false hearted
There yet are thousands true.
Then let them say whate'er they will
Her banner bears no stain,—
The deeds old England once has done
She yet can do again."'
" Thneayssfaoyesthonatedveaeryr OsilddeE, ngland (A pplau se.)
Who envy her her conquests,

Vaunt all her strength is past,

But let them say whate'er they will

She yet can do again !"
(Loud Ch‘ers.)
England was the land he loved most next to his _
own country ; but he hated to hear fellows always
talking of home,:for he thought the best thing they,
could do was to go to that home. He believed, the
North and South would shake hands and be friends.
He believed in loving one country, one mother, and
one wife, and he firmly believed and loped, for and
trusted in one union of States.
"A union of lakes, a union of lands, -
A union of States none can sever :
A union of hearts, a union of hands,
And the flags of our union for ever and ever.
And the flags of our union for ever."
There was nothing like unity for the prosperity,
peace, and happiness of nations, and nothing was
more calculated to cement good feeling in Christen-
dom than uniting in one common object for the
welfare of their fellow men. He meant it, and he
flrmlyibelieved they meant -t too. (Loud cheers.)
" Who would Fever freedom's shrine
Who would draw the invidious line ;
Though by birth one spot be mine,
Dear is all the rest.
" Dear to me the South's fair land,
Dear the central mountain band,
Dear New England's rocky strand,
Dear the prairied West,
" By our altars, pure and free,
By our Law's deep-rooted tree,
By the past's dread memory,
BY Oust WASHINGTON.
" By our common parent tongue,
By our hopes, bright, buoyant, young,
By the tie of country strong
We will still be one."

(Loud cheers.)
Whatever his future path in life might be, he should
ever remember the reception they had given him
that day. When he was amongst them before he had
offered to make them a street railway, but he had
not heard anything from the authorities ; however.
he was still ready to do it, and so enable them to ride
in their own carriages, for he called his cars the
peoples' carriages. Though he had met with great
opposition in London, and had had the distinguished
honour of appearing before the police courts, he
felt he should still succeed, for whilst they were
proceeding against him in one district, he should
have another line open in another district, and so
all round London, before they got their eyes open.
(Cheers.) He again thanked them for the reception
they had given him, and concluded by proposing a
vote of thanks to the chairman, which was cordially
responded to, and Mr. Train sat down amidst loud
and prolonged cheering.
The meeting then separated.

The Two Thousand day was chiefly remarkable for its
dulness. Although the weather was fine, and the attend-
ance of the company very numerous, yet the proceedings
seemed "slow," and tedious. The success of Diophantus,

however, roused the visitors into enthusiasm, and the cheers
with which the judge's decision was greeted were not
merely a transitory ebullition of excitement, for Lord Stam-
ford has endeared himself to the Newmarket townfolk by
many acts of charity.
