RuEBUcK ON OUR FOREIGN

RELATIONS.

a House of Lords, that was like ourselves, The
members of the House of Lords would consist of
prirces of the imperial houses—that was like our-
selves; the landed hereditary nobility, and those
archbishops and bishops whose noble rank entitled
them to a seat—these also were like ourselves. The
Emperer also ordains that he shall call upon those
persons to life peerages who have distinguished
themselves by their abilities either in church, state,
literature, or arts. This was net like ourselves.
(Hear, hear.) The House of Commons would con-
sist of 343 members, taken from the following
places :—Hungary, 85 members ; Bohemia, 54 ;
Lombardy, 20; Dalmatia, 5; Croatia and Sela-
vonia, 9 ; Galicia, Lodoeria, the Duchy of Aus-
chintu and Zatou, and the Duchy of Cracow, 38; Up-
per Austria, 18; Lower Austria, 10; Duchy of Seitz-
burg, 3 ; Striersund, 13 ; Corinthia, 5 ; Uram, 6 ;
Budowina, 6 ; Suvenburgen, 26 ; Moravia Mahren,
22; Tyrol, 12; Istria, containing Sarz Gradeska
and City of Trieste, 6; in all 343. How then, it
will be asked, can Hungary be swamped by the
Duchy of Austria, seeing that Upper Austria has
18, and Lower 10 members. Austria desires, under
her present Emperor, to be emancipated. Foreign
nations only knew Austria as Austria. They did
not know its component parts like the United States.
We know nothing of New York, Pennsylvania,
Massachusetts, but we know about the United

EGHAM RACES-YESTERDAY,

SHEFFIELD, WEDNESDAY EVENING.

Although the card was meagre, the company was far
larger and the racing far better than that of Tuesday. The
town Plate (handicap) mustered 15 of all ages at the post;
but the chief rac- of the meeting, rejoicing in the grandilo-
quent name of the Surrey and Middlesex Stakes, failed to
bring out horses enough for the winner to chim the added
100. The money was, however, handed over by consent of
the Stewards fur a field wanting one of the number required
by the conditions, and the race resulted according to the
anticipations of the Ring, the favourite having proved the
winner, but not without a struggle. Each of the first three
races was decided by a neck, one by a head, and one ending
in a dead heat, thus affording sufficient interest to gratify
the sightseers, who left the course soon after 5 o'clock, well
satis'ied with the sport, the scenery, and the weather.

The Mayor and Corporation dined together this
evening in the Free Library. The borough mem-
bers, Mr. J. A. Roebuck and Mr. G. Hadfield, and
the principal inhabitants of the neighbourhood were
present.

The MAYOR (Mr. H. Vickers) proposed in sue
cession the usual loyal and patriotic toasts.

r The toast of " The Borough Members" was pro-
posed by Alderman H. E. HOOLE, in responding to
which,
Mr. ROEBUCK, after some complimentary remarks,
said—lt is evident to my mind that you, Mr. Mayor,
have not called us together merely out of com-
pliment, but to learn something from us
of the great questions of the day; and, sir,
I now accept my own suggestion, and will
address myself to this assembly, always remem-
bering that I am not now speaking to the
House of Commons. •There are many things to
restrain and excite which are not here. Let not the
present company think that I bind my colleague to
all I say. That which I now say I say on my own
responsibility. I am about to take upon myself the
duty of explaining what are the chief points which

An admirable s' art was obtained at the first attempt, the
four running abreast to the distance, where Thunderstorm,
on the lower side, appeared to have a slight advantage,
Peahen lying in the centre, with the favourite on her whip
hand. In this way they ran to the cords, where Cock Robin
was disposed of, the remaining trio coming on together to
the stand, where Peahen appeared to have the best of it ;
but Reeves, with a judicious application of the whip, landed
Thunderstorm a clever winner in the last stride by a neck,
a head separating the second and third. Cock Robin
finished a bad fourth.

now occupy attention. Whatever may be the re-
strictions at such a meeting as this 1 believe we are
now going to talk about politics, and without

States. The Emperor of Austria wants an empire
in the midst of Europe to communicate with other
nations. It had hitherto been united by the golden
link of a crown, but he would have it united by a
constitutional government, an imperial parliament,
a House of Lords and a House,of Commons, repre-
senting each and every one of the separate nation
alities composing the empire. This the Emperor
considered would enable him to meet antagonistic
powers upon a great and fair field. He (Mr. Roe-
buck) would ask whether, in this, Hungary was
wise to enter into competition with her sovereign
to impede him in so great a work, because it gave

politics there is nothing in me. The hon. gentle-
man then proceeded to say, that he should range
over the whole world, and that he ehould talk about
France, about Austria, and about America, and in
so doing he begged it to be understood that he did
not wish-to give offence to any one. Two great
countries had been attempting to come closer toge-
ther by commercial union, and that mainly by the
attempts and labours of Mr. Cobden. Between the
people of France and the people of England an
alliance could not be too intimate. Great they were
both, and mighty in their influence upon the world.
He honoured France and her people, and he be-

Strawberry Leaf, in company with Dunoon, Redpole, and
Pinkepoe, made the running, with Sweetbread lying off. In
this order they ran to within the distance, where Straw-
berry Leaf gave way beaten, leaving Dunoon with a slight
lead, followed on the lower side by Redpole, and Sweetbread
on the whip hand. At the stand Sweetbread came out, and
in a few strides got to the favourite's quarter's, the pair
finishing a close race home, Dunoon winning cleverly by a
neck, a bad third, Pinkepoo was fourth, and Strawberry
Leaf last.

lieved that anything which would unite us to them
would be a benefit to both, and a benefit to man
kind at large. Whether the attempt would be sue-
cessful he would not presume to say. For himself,
he was an ardent admirer of Mr. Cobden, but he
feared the comtnerci .1 treaty would not bear the
fruits that gentleman anticipated. He hoped he
might be mistaken. (Hear.) Nobody would feel
more than he did the advantages which were anti-
cipated in the treaty with France. If this com-
mercial treaty was the only circumstance of union
with France he should say nailing more about it ;
but his hon. colleague (Mr. Hadfield) would have to
say why it was that in a time of peace we in England
were taxed as if it were a time of war. The person
who now headed the great country of France was
not able to follow all the amicable desires that we
had in our minds at present, He would not allude
to the circumstances which placed him upon the
throne of France, but these circumstances made
him, he would not say the slave, but they made him
the servant of the army of France. (Hear, hear.)
That army now amounted to 600,000 men, and
there was a great fleet around the coast. Why
were they there ? (Hear, hear.) They were there
to threaten England, and he as an Englishman was
not born to be threatened with impunity. (Ap-
plause.) The volunteers had started up—(hear,
hear)—and we were now safe. And besides this
there was at the head of the Administration—he
said it in the hearing of men who did not believe
in that Administration—there was at the head of
the Administration now one who cared for the
honour and the safety of England. (Hear, hear.)
And so long as we had him there we were safe.
(Loud applause.) lie had said that he was not
great in the language of compliment, but this he
said from his very heart. He felt the danger in
which England was placed, and he looked to him
for the safety of the country ; and depend upon it
as soon as we got rid of that man we should get
rid of one of our great defences. He (Mr. Roebuck)
bad never been a party man—all the world knew
that. He had, he believed, done his utmost on one
occasion to turn this very man out of office--(hear,
hear)—and he thought he had succeeded—
(laughter)—but still he said that Lord John Rus-
sell on making his farewell speech to the House of
Commons made use of words which ought to sink
deep into the hearts of Englishmen. Lord John
said there were things in the conduct of the Empe-
ror of the French that created great doubt and sus-
picion in the minds of the people of England.
(Hear) He (Mr. Roebuck) would now make known
a secret. He knew there had been a compact entered
into with the King of Italy that the Emperor of the
French should have the Island of Sardinia as soon
as he withdrew from Rome. (Cries of " Shame.")
He was stating a fact, not what he thought but
what he knew, and he knew also that the people of
England would not allow that. (Hear, and cheers.)
There was hanging over us now a cloud threaten-
ing war, and that man at the head of the admini-
stration was nady to brittle against such aggran-
disement on the part of France. What he had said
would be verified before many months elapsed. Such
was the condition of England wit- regard to
France; and in such a position should we not look
abroad ? For what means of defence was there
against the Emperor of the French making the
I Mediterranean a French lake? (Hear, hear.)
Where were we to expect him to stop ? He knew
he would be met with all sorts of imputations—
(no, no)--but he said we must took to Austria.
There had been a remarkable article on the subject
in the limes, that great forerunner of opinion in
England, for it took its gauge from what was going
on, and suited its articles to meet coming wants.
(Laughter.) The 7 imes, then, had expounded its
views with regard to Austria, and many of his
hearers had no doubt read the article. Mr. Roe-
buck then went on to say what Austria was doing,
and he asked his hearers to bear with him for a
short time, because at the present moment penny
papers and penny trumpets—(langhterj—were play-
ing against him for what he had said. Taught by
aoversity and experience, the Emperor of Austria
was endeavouring to make his hitherto despotically
ruled dominions a constitutional government.
(Hear, hear.) Now, he did not believe that expe-
rience made fools wiser, but he did believe that it
made wise men wiser, and experience acting upon
the young Emperor of Austria made him determine
to translate his government into a constitutional
government. (Hear.) Some documents had been
given to him from which he had made a few ex-
tracts. The Emperor of Austria had endeavoured
to make the constitution of that country as nearly
like that of England as possible; he had made a
House of Lords and a House of Commons, and had
even gone beyond our constitution ; he had given
every distinct nation in his country a consti-
tutional and a municipal government ; and when it
is said that the Emperor of Austria has only yielded
to pressure, he (Mr. Roebuck) knew what we
yielded to when we gave Catholic emancipation.
He recollected that fierce demagogue O'Connell de-
claiming against the Union, and what said our
great man on that occasion—the Duke of Welling-
ton ? (Hear, hear.) He said—,, I will not face civil
war, because I know the miseries which war brings
upon a people." Catholic emancipation was granted,
and has been acted upon, and are you not now a
united people ? (Hear, hear.) Again, who made the
aristocracy give up the corn laws ? Why, Mr.
Cobden. He made a proposition to the landed in-
terests of the country, and he dragged from the
hands of Si R. Peel the emancipation of the country
from the dominion of the corn laws. (Applause.)
Should it now be said that the Emperor of Austria,
taught wisdom by Solferino, was about to go from
his word, after having given a constitution to his
people? Looking to the past, then—looking to the
future, and looking to ourselves, we ought to believe
that he, as an honest and as a wise man, would act
up to his word. (Hear, hear.) The constitution of
Austria would consist of a House of Conamous and

to each and every one the power of governing
themselves, and of sending their own members to
parliament, of putting upon themselves taxation,
and gave them the power of enabling the Emperor
to meet the opposition power of Europe upon an
equality which he desired, and which they also
desired under such circumstances ? He (Mr. Roe
buck) would ask his countrymen whether, in what
he had stated, there was anything to condemn, and
whether they believed the Emperor of Austria was
a sham ? He used the word because it was a
favourite word with people who talked about a mat-
ter they did not understand. He (Mr. Roebuck)
would do all he could to create a power in the
centre of Europe—a constitution which would ad-
mit us free a parliament as our own. He had now
travelled over Europe, and for a few moments would
cross the Atlantic, and would ask what should be
the conduct of Englishmen with regard to the great
contest going on in America. He avowed that with
refard to that country his early anticipations had
been shaken. He believed in the great men, the
Washingtons, the Jeffersons, and others of past

Betting-3 to 1 on Weatherbound, 9 to 2 agst Rover, and

Claire jumped away with a strong lead, waited upon by
the favourite and Rover, which positions they retained to
the distance, where Weatherbound went up, and shortly
after obtained a slight lead, which she held to the end, and
won very cleverly by a neck. Rover, who appeared out-
paced throughout, finished a wretched third.
The Town Plate of 50 sovs (handicap) for all ages. Half•

times—(hear, hear)—and that there was about to
be shown to mankind a new era in the government
of man, that this people, instructed and well to do
in the world, many of them men of rank, would
have governed themselves as men ought to do. He
had been miserably dissappointed. (H ar.) If we
were to say to an Americin, " We give yoa every
virtue under heaven—we believe you to be the
greatest people on the earth, but still it seems to us
you don't speak English as it should be siloken—
this you speak through the nose"—(laughter)—Fire
and fury would be the answer. He would say, " Sir,
with a mighty indignation I grant you the imputa-
tion that we snuffle in our speech"—(laughter)—and
then all we had stated on behalf of this nation would
be forgotten because we had said that they snuffled
in their speech. (Oh.) That, unfortunately, he (Mr.
Roebuck) believed to be a true statement of the pre-
fent case. The unspeakable audacity, the overbear-
ing insolence of Americans—(hcar)—had withdrawn
from them all sympathy on the part of the people of
England. (Hear, hear.) Looking at the great con-
test now going on, was there a man in this country
who did not in his heart desire that the sl tve might
be free? (Hear, hear.) These are with the North, our
commercial interests are with the South, but still we
have acted throughout with complete neutrality ;
and what has been the consequence ? We have been
visited with abuse such as was never berore helped
upon us, and we have borne it with a magnanimity
and carelessness which showed our superiority.
We must still, however, pursue our course of strict
neutrality with regard to the affair. Our hearts
and our wishes were with the oppressed. After
further remarks upon the slave question, Mr. Roe-
buck resumed his seat amid great applause.
Mr. R. N. PHILLIPS next proposed the " House
of Commons."

A fter two failures, in the first of which St. Bernard and
Strawberry Leaf broke away, the latter running to the dis-
tance before Adams could stop him, the flag was lowered,
when Enfield, in company with White Wave, Gaberdine,
Santa Claus, and the Ethel filly, got away in close com-
pany, and ran thus to the turn into the straight, where the
Ethel filly on the lower side bolted to the left, and was im-
mediately out of the race. On reaching the distance Santa
Claus ran through his horses, and came on with a clear
lead in the centre of the course, closely waited upon by
Enfield, St. Bernard, Gaberdine, Clementine, Doncaster,
and Lord of the Tees to the entrance of the stand enclosure,
where the three placed singled themselves out, Santa Claus
maintaining his advantage to the end, and winning very
easily by a length, Enfield defeating St. Bernard by two
lengths. Gaberdine was a bad fourth, Clementine fifth,
Doncaster sixth, and Lord of the Tees next. The others
beaten off some distance.

G. HADFIELD, Etzq., responded, and in the course
of his remarks expressed a fervent hope that, not-
withstandir g what had been stated by Mr. Roebuck,
we should be spared a war with any of the con-
tinental states.

Bubbles, in company with Chirp, Calipyge, and Medusa,
made the running, followed by Liberality and the Alice filly
to the distance, where the favourite took a clear lead.
Liberality at the same time came past his horses, and took
the second place, the pair finishing a close race home, the
favourite, admirably ridden by little Adams, winning in the
last stride by a head. Medusa finished a bad third, and Ca-
lipyge fourth; the other two beaten off. The Alice filly,
who broke down badly, was last. The winner was sold to

CHARING-CRoSS BRIDGE COMPANY.

Yesterday the half-yearly general meeting of the
shareholders in this company was held at the offices
in Villiers street, Strand—Mr. Coles Child in the
chair..

The report stated that the half-year ending 31st
July continued to show an improved income, the
total receipts having seen £3,829 13s. 10d., being
nearly £6OO in excess of the receipts of the corre-
sponding period of the preceding year, while the
gross payments for the some period, exclusive of the
February dividend, had been only £2,212 15s. 6d ,
in which was included a long outstanding account
of the engineer amounting to £402 lOs The result
was that the directors were in a position to recom-
mend the declaration of a dividend, payable on the
26th inst., of 10s. per share on the original shares,
free of income tax, being at the rate of upwards of
£5 1 ls, per cent, per annum on the present balaLce
of the shares, with a proportionate dividend on the
eighth shares.
The CHAIILMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, congratulated the shareholders upon its
highly satisfactory nature. The improvement in
the tolls was no doubt partially owing to the works
which werein process for the construction of the
railway bridge across the Thames, which had occa-
sioned a considerable increase in the passenger
traffic. There was another important feature for
congratulation. The company being entirely free
from debt, the whole of the income could bedivided
amongst the proprietors. They had only to pay
interest on £20,000, so that the remainder was lett
for dividend. They had received the first instal-
ment of £20,000 on the sale of the bridge from the
railway company, £lO,OOO of that sum had been
appropriated to paying off the Willet mortgage,
£3,000 bad been paid to the bankers, and the
remaining £7,000 had been paced out at in-
terest. Some dispute having arisen as to
whether the railway company was entitled to the
possession of a wharf belonging to the bridge com-
pany, the matter was referred, and they expected to
receive the award in a few days. In the meantime
the railway company had paid £lB,OOO out of the
second instalment of £20,000, and he had little
doubt that before the next meeting the other £2,000
would be paid to them. They had not, however,
sustained any loss by the delay, inasmuch as the
£2,000 remained in the names of joint trustees, and
the bridge company received the interest. Seven
pounds per share had been returned to shareholders,
amounting to £23,633 17s. 6d.; and on the Bth of
August next they were entitled to receive the other
£85,000 from the railway company, making alto-
gether £125,000, or £40,000 for the bridges and
£85,000 for the tolls and their privileges under the
act of Parliament. That sum, however, would be-
come due at any earlier period, should the railway
company take the tolls, or do anything that would
reduce them in amount. The direct ors of the bridge
company were not desirous that the railway com-
nany should hasten the arrangement, seeing that so
large a dividend had been earned, and every pro-
spect existed thatit would be as much, if not mere,
at the next meeting.
Mr. C FEW seconded the motion for the adoption
of the report,which was carried without discussion.
On the mo ion of the CHAIRMAN the dividend, as
recommended in the repert, was declared; and the
retiring directors having been re•elected, various
votes of thanks were passed, and the proceedings
cloned.

GRADUAL JUSTICE FOR THE ROMAN ►STATES.-
-By a letter from the Eternal City we are informed that,
