,lieers.) " I belong' to the
people—l have fought the people's battle, and I have
got nothing by it. (Loud. cheers.) But, sir, I know
my own countrymen so well, that if an angel of light
were to come down with simple reason, and some-
body were to stand by and say, " that angel is seld,
body and soul, don't trust him"—if he were to speak
the very words of wisdom, I know my countrymen
well enough to know the'y would not listen to rea-
son. (Laughter and uprodr.) Well, then, lam going
first to deal with the Imputations against my
character,

question respecting which

it was when I votedeto keep in Lord Derby's
Administration.,,- The pecond occasionewas when I

mended Lord Palmerston to be thoroughly a friend
Af non-intervention, but at the same time to give
the moral influence of England to thirty millions
of people who are tow sttiving for political power.
—namely, the Austrian nation. (Cheers and
hisses.) Upon the first occasion, when I voted
for Lord Derby's Administration, what was the
impntatiOn'? Why, that by means of a
sUbsiely given by the Government to the Gal-
way Company "I was. bought. That was the
imputation. (Hear; hear.) Now, first and fore-
most, I never received a farthing—(a Voice—
"We don't believe you did," and cheers.) I
thought„Vhen I was called upon by certain per-
sons, that it would be a very good thing to have a
steam communication between the West of Ireland
and the East of America. They said that at that
time the English Government were paying £240,000
a year to the Cunard Company in Liverpool, and it
was added that if we could get a subsidy from the
Government for carrying the mails from Galway to
New York, it would be a great thing for the trade
between the two countries. I applied among others,
for there were several other members of Parlia-
ment concerned, though you have only picked
out Mr. Roebuck. I applied among others to the
Government in order to obtain a subsidy for the
Galway Company. After negotiations with the
Government, they at last consented to make
a contract with the company to carry the
mails from Galway to New York for, I think,
£76,000 a-year. (Oh, hear, hear, cheers, and up-
roar.) Now nothing was to be paid before service
was rendered. But before any service was rendered
—before any money was paid, I had left the Galway
company. But there was some £lo,ooo—(Great
confusion,'which prevented the conclusion of the
sentence being heard.) Now I do not intend to talk
to you in such a imise. (A Voice—" It's all out-
side.") No doubt there is noise outside, but there
is also a good deal of yelling here. (Cries of—Go
into the open air.) I will go away if you like, but
I will not go into the open air to address you. My
notion is that there are certain persons here who do
not want to hear me, and si ho have come on pur-
pose to put a stop to the meeting. (A Voice—You're
quite right. They come from Bond-lane.) I believe
they do, and I shall, therefore, decline to proceed
any further. I have not a steam engine at work
lin me, and I must at once give way.
Mr. Roebuck here resumed his seat and remained
a passive looker on. In the meantime the cheers,
whistling, hisses, hooting, and yells were perfectly
deafening, while the heavy thuds against the doors
announced the impatience of the mob outside. The
densely-packed multitude swayed to and fig with
excitement, and in the most uproarious manner de-
manded immediate silence and order. Mr. Roebuck
again rose, but finding it impossible even to hear
his own voice immediately resumed his seat. A
short consultatioe took place among his supporters,
and at their instance, finding a hearing out of the
question, he courteously bowed to the ':meeting and
retired into,the ante-room.
The Rev. P. HOPI'S came forward and stated that
the persons who most thoroughly disapproved of
Mr. Roebuck's conduct were those who were the
• most silent. The real fact of the matter was that
the hall was so crowded that everybody was un-
comrortable. The people outside were making a
most awful row, and he apprehended that that was
the real reason the meeting would be broken up.
Mr. HADFIELD—I really cannot allow the re-
marks of my rev. friend to pass without notice. He
says that my hon. colleague has occasioned certain
opinions being formed of his conduct, and that
those who have formed them still entertain them.
The rev. gentleman must excuse me if I say that
his remark is ungenerous. Ido not deny that my
hon. colleague and myself have frequently been
found in different lobbies ; but he is a man who can
defend himself if you will give him an opportu-
nity. What has he come here for ? Simply for
I the purpose of defending himself, and I think if he
had an opportunity afforded him of doing so my
rev. friend would entertain a very different
opinion to that which he appears to entertain. Mr
Roebuck has appeared here in his place before his
constituents, and it is because he has laboured to
procure a hearing and has been unable to obtain
one, that I would ask all here to suspend any
judgment they may have formed until he has an
opportunity of being fairly heard. (Cheers and
uproar.)

The Rev. P. HOPPS said Mr. Hadfield had en-
tirely misunderstood him. He had not said he was
an opponent to Mr. Roebuck; but what he did say
was, the noise was occasioned by discomfort and
not by antagonism.
. Mr. W. SHARMAN, secretary of the SheNeld
Garibaldi Fund, here attempted to address the
meeting, but was received with such a perfect storm
of groans and yells that he made a very precipitate
retreat.

Mr. HOOLE called for a show of hands as to whe-
ther the meeting would adjourn or consent to hear
Mr. Roebuck.
A large majority were in favour of continuing
the proceedings, very few hands being held up for
an adjournment. The uproar, nevertheless, con-
tinued without intermission, and finally,
The MAYOR said that he was desired by Mr. Ro-
ebuck to state that he declined to address the meet-
ing any further that day, but he would attend again
in the same place on Thursday. The meeting,
therefore, stood adjourned until Thursday.
Mr. Roebuck then left the hall, and was escorted
to his hotel by most of his orderly constituents.
The majority of the meeting did not, however,
appear to comprehend the nature of the proceed-
ings, and remained in the hall, crowded almost to
suffocation, long after Mr. Roebuck quitted it.
