OPENING OF THE PRUSSIAN CHAMBERS.
THE KING'S SPEECH.
BERLIN, Nov. 21.—The session of the Chambers
was opened this morning by the King in person, in
the White-hall of the Palace. The ceremony differed
in no respect from the forms observed on other occa-
sions ; but there was considerable increase in the in-
terest with which the speech was awaited. The com-
petition for tickets of admission was pretty keen, for
the hall being originally only a ball-room, the public
are limited to the gallery that was once the or-
chestra, and after a loge is parted off for the Am-
bassadors of the several Powers, the space is rather
limited. Care had been taken not to issue more
tickets than the gallery would hold persons, so that
though full, it was not overcrowded. The senators,
after attending Divine worship in the cathedral and
the church of St. Hedwig, began to arrive at eleven
o'clock. Chairs were placed on the side of the hall
opposite the throne, but very few of the deputies
seated themselves; nearly all remained standing in I
the space immediately in front of the throne during
the whole proceedings. s
,
The diplomatic corps, in grand costume, arrived in I
a body shortly before half-past eleven o'clock.
His Majesty soon after entered the hall, followed
by the Princes of the royal house and the several
Ministers in their state uniforms. The Princes
took their place to the right of the throne, and the
Ministers on the left. His Majesty wore a general's
uniform, with helmet and plume. He was received
by the Assembly in profound silence. Having taken
his seat, after saluting the deputies, he immediately
read the following speech:—
" Gentlemen, Deputies of the First and Second Cham- ,
hers,—ln an earnest period I see you with confidence
again assembled around my throne, and I bid you from I
my heart welcome.
" Since the close of your last session my Government
has been zealously engaged in calling into active opera-
tion the organic laws which were passed with your as-
sent. The introduction of the new communal law has
been commenced in all parts of the kingdom, and only a
regard to manifold existing interests, directed by the
provisions of the law itself, has prevented the equal
progress of the measure in the different parts of the
monarchy. Although the preliminary survey for the
land tax, according to the estimate of the law of the I
24th of Februrary of the present year, has not been
everywhere concluded, yet my Government will lay
before you the result of the measure as soon as possible.
" The great railway constructions which the Govern- ,
ment has been placed in a position by your assent to I
bring to completion, have been commenced vigorously,
and with good results. Other public works have also
progressed in a satisfactory manner, and have contri-
buted essentially to the improvement of the classes to
which they have furnished employment.
" In consequence of the progressive establishment of
confidence trade and commerce have increased during 1
the past year, and have in some branches received a
lively impulse. The seaborne traffic in the harbours of
the kingdom has indicated a rising activity in commer-
cial enterprise.
" The improvement of the post system, which has
been accompanied by a more comprehensive postal
treaty with other German States, for the facilitation of
mutual intercourse, already exhibits its many advantages.
" We had already begun to enjoy the returning state
of security when an attempted assassination against my-
self opened for us a glance into that moral abyss on
which we arc still standing. I do not speak of my fife
—that is in the hand of the Almighty; and the danger
from which I was miraculously saved procured me the
satisfaction of receiving innumerable proofs of fidelity
and attachment from all parts of the country. But I
speak of that profound confusion of all ideas in which
alone an attempt at regicide could arise, of that contempt
of Divine and human laws which was to be observed in
this lamentable event.
" The Revolutionary press bears ro small part of the
guilt, and as it was not possible in the last session of the
Chamber to discuss the Provisional Press Law of the 30th
of June last. and which has been found ineffective, my
Government considered it its duty to publish a further
preliminary decree relative to the press, on the authority
of the 63d Article of the Constitution. This decree,
however, was only intended to be a temporary means of
remedying evident evils. At the same time, therefore,
with this decree the draught of a comprehensive and
permanent law for the organization of the press will be
laid before you. In discussing it you will endeavour in
accord with my Government to reconcile the claims of a
reasonable freedom with the conditions necessary to the
safety of the state and of society.
" The preparations for carrying into effect the pro-
visions of the Constitution as to the relations of the
Church to the State are in uninterrupted progress, and
my Government will feel itself bound to settle the diffi-
cult task submitted to them with a due regard to all just
interests.
" The draught of the Education Law is nearly com-
pleted, but the comprehensive nature of the preliminary
labour it requires prevents its being laid before you at
the opening of the session.
" The draught of a law regulating the practice of
medicine will shortly be laid before you.
"The draught of a penal code, long since prepared,
also awaits your discussion.
"The annexation of the principalities of Hohenvollern
to the monarchy renders necessary the publication of an
election law for those States. I suggest to you the im-
mediate consideration of this law, for you will wish, as
well as myself, to see the representatives of that part of
the nation as soon as possible among you.
" Gentlemen, you will perceive by the financial state-
ment for 1851 that there has not only been in general an
increase in the revenue of the state, but that care has
been taken to place every practical limit to the expendi-
ture. Yet it has not been possible with the ordinary re-
venue to cover the increased outlay of the state occa-
sioned by the effects of the convulsions of 1848. A more
than ordinary pressure on the taxation cf the country
is, therefore, unavoidable. The measures of my Go-
vernment en this subject I recommend to your most
careful consideration.
" A full account of the use made of the credit of
18,000,000 thalers, voted for military purposes, will be
laid before you.
". The dangers by which you were induced to grant
that credit have not yet been removed. My pacific re-
lations to the great powers of Europe have not indeed
been interrupted; but, unhappily, it has not been possi-
ble to carry into effect my intention to create for the
German States a constitution equal to their necessities.
I cling to the idea which was the foundation of my
• efforts, in firm hope in the future; but I will only again
attempt its realization on new grounds when a decision
has been come to on the future organisation of the
German Bund.
"I hope that the negotiations on this subject will soon
lead to a successful result.
" The peace with Denmark is concluded and ratified ;
but it has not been possible as yet to carry it in all
points into effect.
"In a neighbouring German State disputes of the
most irreconcilable character have taken place. An
attempt to interfere, made from one side only, threatened
to violate the rights of Prussia, and led to misunder-
standings in which we are directly involved. Our re-
presentations, founded on the conditions of our geo-
graphical and military position, did not meet with
proper attention on the part of the Sovereign of the State
and his allies. Besides this, concentrations of troops
were made close on our frontiers, in places distant from
the scene of those embarrassments, by which the security
of the monarchy was menaced. Then I could no longer
defer what had been long postponed. I have called out
the whole warlike power of the lend, and I see with pride
and joy that all my people capable of bearing arms have
risen I:ke one man, and joined themselves to nay brave
and faithful army,
"In a short time we shall stand more strongly armed
than at any period of old or modern time. We do not
seek war; we wish to lessen no one's rights, or force
our proposals on any one;
but we require an organize-
tion of collective Germany, consistent with our present
' f position in Germany arid in Europe, and commensurate
wi h the sure of the rights that God has placed in our
hands. We havo a good right; the e e will defend,
and we will remain in powerful preparation, under our
' I weapons, till we are certain it has obtained recognition.
i " This we owe to Prussia and to Germany.
I" I hope that our rising will be sufficient to assert our
right; if this is attained, it is without danger to the

peace of Europe, for my people are reasonable in the
some degree as they are strong.
"It is for you, Gentlemen, to furnish me with the means
by which this end is to be secured. I lament thecsacri-
flees which on this account must be imposed on the
nation, but I know, Gentlemen, that your z?al will not
be behind that of the whole people. You will furnish a
proof that our Constitution, to which I inviol9.bly adhere,
does not impe& Prussia in en energetic come of action,
but assists it.

"And, as in the exultaion of the moment all parties
among the people have disappeared, us the people and
the army feel with me and with each other, so will you
also, the representatives of this glorious nation, stand
firmly by me, and with one mind, in the dangers of the
present time. Well, then, let our motto be, " Unity
in fidAity ; trust in God in one spirit—the old spirit of
Pi ussia.'

" Therewith has God helped us often and far, and will
help us sun farther.
That is my reliance.
M. vox LADENIMIG then declared the session to
be opened.

The KING appeared to reed the first part of the
speech with some degree of difficulty, but in the
latter passages he roused himself, and threw great em-
phasis into the words referring to the summons of the
army and the rights of Prussia. At the close of each
of the latter paragraphs the deputies gave a round of
applause in a hearty shout of " bravo," and at
the termination of the speech they gave four
or five repeated rounds of cheering. On no former
occasion was the stiffness of etiquette so completely
thrown off; the hall was converted for the moment
into a public meeting when some star of oratory is
rising above the horizon of the platform. If the
• Chanil-er is as unanimous iu its votes as its cheers, M.
VON MANTEUFIFEL must be careful how he shows too
' decided a leaning to the side of peace. And yet,
when the speech is read, the phrases that elicited so
much enthusiasm are but vague; while it is certain
the " attempt to give Germany a Constitution is
abandoned" till a future and undefined period.
It is hoped the preparations for war will alone be
enough to secure the end Prussia has in view, and in
that case they will not endanger the peace of Europe ;
but the precise end has never been distinctly
stated, and the right of Prussia may be something
containing a less or a more to be settled by negotia-
tions, and that might have been done without the
armament. The omission of any declaration as to the
intervention in Schleswig-Holstein will probably
strike many of the Deputies to-morrow as unaccount-
able, since it is the point which every one out of doors
regards with the most anxiety. The Hessian dispute,
which is dwelt on at some length, is of secondary
importance.
A4er the ceremony at the Palace, both Chambers
held a short preparatory sitting in their respective
localities. M. LEUSING was, as in the last session,
elected president of seniority in the Second Chamber;
UMp.per House.F"cjlwas chosen in the same manner iu the
The first contest will be the election of President;
the Opposition, it is believed, will propose M. VON
CAMPHAUSEN. Count VON RITTBERG and i\4. VON
JORDAN are mentioned as the Ministerial and Con-
servative candidates.
Our latest edvices from Berlin inform us of the
proceedings of the Prussian Parliament in its sittings
of the 22d inst. Presidents were elected, viz.,—the
Lower House elected Count SCHWERIN, while Mr.
SIMsoN was appointed Vice-President. In the Upper
House Count ItermeaG was elected to the Presidency
with a majority of 40 votes against the candidate of
the Liberal party, Mr. CAMPHAUSEN.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
The Hamburgh Borsenhalle has the following from
Copenhagen of the date of the 18th Nov. :
" The Minister of War has published the offici4l
report of the loss of the Danes in the reconnoitering
skirmish on the 14th, at three wounded and four miss-
ing; one Schleswig-Holstein officer and five sol-
diers having been taken prisoners by the Danes. In
another skirmish which took place un the same day
at Breckendort; the Hoisteiners had three men killed
and fourteen taken prisoners. The Danes sustained
no loss.

" Very great activity prevails in the Duchies of
Schleswig-Holstein, and decisive events are evidently
in preparation.
" It is stated that the British Cabinet demande,
under all circumstances, an armed intervention in
Schleswig-Holstein for the interests of the Danish
monarchy."

HOLLAND.
GRAND DUCHY 'OP LUXEMBURG.

LIE HAGUE, Nov. 23.—The Chambers of the
Grand Duchy of Luxemburg have closed after a short
but stormy session. At the concluding sitting the
following motion was passed after a warm debate of
several hours. This motion, which bears upon the
present state of Germany, is thus worded:—
" Seeing that the Government which has contributed
to the re-establishment of the Diet has declared that it
will not associate itself with any coercive measures
against a constitutional state of Germany:
" That notwithstanding coercive measures are carried
out in the name of the Diet and of the states which
compose the Diet, that Hesse is invaded, and that nearly
the whole of Germany is under arms:

" Hope that the Government will endeavour to obtain
that neutrality of which it has spoken."
After having voted the Budget for Public Works,
the Chambers adjourned to the second Tuesday in
February, leaving the President the power of con-
voking an extraordinary session if circumstances
shall require it.

ITALY,
The: Osservatore Romano, the official journal of the
Papacy, bas the following article on the reception the
Papal bull has met with in England:—
" The furious violence of the English press continues
to storm with increasing enthusiasm against the Pontifi-
cal brief upon the restoration of the ecclesiastical hierar-
chy, and presents a singular spectacle, so much agita
Lion and auger not having been displayed by it since tie
time of tho implacable invectives against Napoleon.
And why? said we to ourselves; an answer arose from
the bottom of our heart. All the organs of the British
Nebuchaducazar feel better than any one else the irrs-
sistibls power of the Catholic religion in the world.
The most obstinate begin to persuade themselves
that this power is superior to political eventualities, that
it does not consist in temporal, power derived from men,
but that its foundations ate bcsed upon the internal ad-
herence of their spirits. Consequently they see either
that their recritninations are too unju,t, or that the
Anglican Church is menaced by total ruin. If they had
and less ire.
w
any shadow of right, they would speak with more dig-
nity

e In the cries and howlings
of Anglican despair,
also, we see a great deal of that internal sentiment
which resides at the bottom of a reat number ofg
Protestant consciences, and even of those who are
the loudest in crying out against and blaming the
Pontifical act. These same cries are a homage which
Protestants render, after their own manner, and in
spite of thernselve s, to Cathelicisin; because they know
it to be a spiritual body, fortified
impure better than an
,
other, against the impetus of passions, fomented
by revolutionary orgies. This is the cause andthe rea-
son why depraved men, plunged in all sorts of vices,
y
begin their movements iu every attack, conflict, or social
combat, by assualting the
Catholic Church. To prove
this, it is not necessary to repeat, what we have so fre-
quently demonstrated concerning revolutionary ma-
Louvres. In the present case, Anglicanism, the most
potent of political religious establishments, finding itself
reduced to despair, having no species of argument to
oppose, and being, in fact, completely floored, would
fain pretend to form a part of Catholicism; and conse-
quently, now that the effects of its act of religious su-
premacy are threatening, it endeavours to alienate all
those who recognize the errors in which they were en.
veloped, and tend to abjure them by returning into the
bosom of Catholicism.
"Nor need wa,labour much to prove this fact, since the
proof is furnished us by the first of the journalising
combatants—the Times. This paper professes a won-
derful degree of logic when the policy and commerce of
its own country are not interested. The question—or,
to speak more correctly, the violation—of the ecclesias-
tical laws, treaties, and good
Sic-
cardi, and carried out iu Piedmont—the violence used
against the Archbishop of Turin, and Cagliari, and
many other members of the faith, proposed by
stand up for the rights of the bishops, as every one may
have read. Neither the bad opinion raised np against it
by the Piedmontese Ministry, nor any other circum-
stance, was able to diminish the force of its ideas, and
the intelligence of its arguments proved that it pro-
fessed the sentiment of justice from principle. Whence
comes it, then, that in the present case it is so eccentric?
" In quoting an article from the Journal des Debars,
we clearly pointed out tbo injustice of the English jour-
nalists' cries and recriminations. We stated also that
pay no
the Government will clergy—moved the Times to
attention to their clamours;
and when a fitting opportunity occurs, we will demon-
strate from history all the acts of violence used against
Catholicism; but we cannot condessend to discuss the
events of the day, unless the necessary calmness and
tranquillity are restored. The articles of the whole
round of English journals contain nought but violence
and ire, and the words of the Times are a sufficient spe-
cimen, that paper foreseeing the ruin and overthrow of
all sacred interests; and wby? Let the world perish,
but Anglicanism for ever."
It is said that Cardinal ANTONELLI will retire from
the Ministry, and will be succeeded either by Cardinal
BERETTI or Cardinal FUNARI.
The following order of the day from the new
Minister of Arms, Prince ()RHIN', appeared in the
official journal of the 12th :
" Honoured by his Holiness with the appointment to
the ministry of arms, I recognise the value of so distin-
guished a destination, and pr: fess to the most benign
sovereign that gratitude which is his due for
having shown such undeserved confidence in me. I
propose by my efforts to correspond with to
much goodness. In order, however, to effect this
purpose, I must obtain the consent and sincere
co-operation 01 all those who hey° the honour of be•
longing to the military fainilv—this I request as a
pledge of trust in me who prCfess the principle of de-
isiring the welfare, the honour, the happiness of military
men of every weapon, and of all those who belong to
the military family. I now recal to mind what I mani-
fested to the pontifical army by an order of the day on the

6th of September, 1849, desirous as lam to arrive at
that order of things which I then endeavoured to carry
out, and which was paralysed by, unforcieen circum-
stances,

" The Minister of Arms, D. P. ORSINI "

THE NATIONAL. CONCERTS.

On Saturday evening there was a sudden change
in the programme of the concert, occasioned by the
indisposition of Mr. Sims Reeves. This prevented
the performance of M'Farren's new serenata, The
Sleeper Awakened, which would have occupied
the first part of the entertainment.- For this a anis-
cellaneouz selection of vocal and instrumental music
was substituted, including one of the finely har-
monized efforts of the Berlin chorus. In the course
of the second part, an unexpected novelty was intro-
ducci., hi the shape of a seketion of some of the most
favourite airs in Halevy's Tempesta, which proved
quite as attractive in this as in their dramatic form.
The theatre was crowded, the promenade being lite-
rally crammed, and Ihe boxes filled with a very supe-
rior audience. The Berlin chorus will sing through-
out the week, prior to their return to Prussia.
Among the audience at the National Concerts dur-
ing the last week were his Serene Highness Prince
Edward of Saxe Weimar, the Duke and Duchess of
Lcinster, Viscount and Viscountess Palmerston,
Marquis of Donegal, Marquis of Headfort and
Lady Olivia Taylour' Viscount and Lady Olivia
Ossulston, Countess of Kinnoul and Lady Francis
Hay, the Earl of Belfast, Lady Ashley, Lord
Ward and Hon. Dudley Ward, his Excellency
the Marquis d'Azeglio, Lady Malmesbury, Dowager
Marchioness of Ely and the Ladies Loftus, the

PARIS IN MARCH, 1850.
(CONCLUDED.)

At length the almost illegible schedre jotted down
at Paris in March, 1850, are transcribed, and certes
they cannot aspire to the character of news. The Sun
is a journal without which the press would sink into
a mere caterer for the avarice of few, the mediocrity
and lukewarmness of many : a journal which has
long acted as steam-tug or pilot• fish to the others, by
just fastening a hook in the nose of leviathan. Times:
a journal which never deceives the people nor their
true friends, for it tells them not only that they like
to hear, but what they ought to hear. To the Alfred
of the press might be offered, by way of homage,
some " modern instances," suggesting to an impartial
thinker the principles of history which, old as their
origin may be, are always new : to give the facts and
the reasonings suggested, though a more ambitious
writer might find them beneath his notice.
A morning piper has published some very interest-
ing details of French farming, but we only pretend
to give some general notions. Agriculture is a per-
manent resource against the ingratitude and injustice
o: mankind : it is the genuine pleasure of childhood
a.; of age, so that every word on that subject, if prac-
ticable, may be taken as part of one's quota to huma-
nity. On some occasion Cobbett saiu publicly that
if no two Irish Members could agree on any one thing
he would go home to his sheep and cows! It was
to seethe labourers aui champs and the agricultural
campaign commencing that the busy month of March
was chosen for an excursion.

It M. Louis Blanc takes an interest in the subject
he must allow that Frencli farmers not only recog-
nise his diconomie du travail but a parsimony of travail
also, peculiar to themselves. Not a foot of ground is
wasted, not a weed to be seen—this last by help of
warm summers being easily managed—yet the plough-
ing is scarce three inches deep. From Amiens to
Paris, from Paris along the Loire to Tours, the soil
is deep and black and rich everywhere, a pulverizing
sun being warded off by the admirable nature of the
ground. Still the " Anglo-Saxon go-a-head" is
wanting the country is rather organized
than fertilized Oui, oui, zious serez organists.
One would suppose the farmers were like
the sergents de ville at Paris theatres, who with agi-

tated countenances, long strides, sabres, and vast
cloaks a tutta rota, impede the setting down and
taking up of a dozen carriages. All who pass the
boundaries of French Canada and the United States
have seen the indolence and penury of French ma-
nagement; what a sudden contrast also between
Belgium and France, the land being naturally
identical on the line of frontier : in the south of
France " twenty thousand French peasants reap the
harvests of Spain" yearly. Such is the difference of
races.

Which is also perceptible in our own Tipperary,
terra potens ARMIS ague übere glebes : the soil is not
originally superior to "all Ireland," bat some " boys" of
a tougher breed came up the river Suir, soon made
the ground worth fighting for, and have been fighting
for it ever since.

The waste of war and a depopulating conscription
must not be forgotten. Agriculture is ojficina mili-
tant, the storehouse of soldiers. These Sabine tillers
are only happy, sua si bona norint, and to prosperous
youth contentment is unknown.

" Aueon Li-Cage
Du plus heureux village
Pcot 4,re sans soupir."

Having few but imaginary evils at home, the strip-
ling infers per saltum that there are no real evils
abroad : and what becomes of him ? "We have
seen them at an age, when the body had not yet at-
tained its full growth, scorched by the sun in sum•
mer, and having the snow for bed in winter, march-
ing without shoes in the morasses ot Poland, or among
the craggy peaks of the Alps and Pyrenees, con-
strained to wrest from the labourer the frugal fare of
his children. O❑ more than one occasion we, their
generals and their fathers, have been constrained to
shut our eyes on the sufferings of the inhabitants."
It is General Foy who speaks; and such evils in posse
are quite enough to paralyze industry, especially
taking into account Dr. Solander's apophthegm (the
Swedish botanist who went round the world with
Captain Cook)—Man Loves Lazy.
Here the succession ot crops is very regular, but
very limited ; great economy of manure, but parsi-
mony of live stock, as of money stock. Where is the
aristocrat or theocrat Etruscan Lucumon to hold
forth the books of Takes ? A great genius wasTages,
who, " when the plough was going very deep (cum
sulcus altius inscriberetur) suddenly sprung out of the
furrow (repente extitit) with a juvenile aspect, but
with all the prudence of age." Chemistry will no
more give an ample circulation of humus or nutritive
sap than it will introduce Scotch banking, Equally
necessary to farmers, who have to wait a year and
even two or three years for return. Chemistry can
no more detect or explain the qualities of Peruvian
guano than it can distinguish the port wine we used
to drink at Barnby- moor and Orkenbury-hill in the
good old days of bad roads,

"-- Saturno rege, priusquiim
Tellus in longas est patelacto, •ias,"

from the finest dos and crus, vintage of 183—.
So, after all, " ammonia is useless I" and yet the
mineral manures, recommended by Liebig's positive
order, ruined the purchasers. Surely a rotation of
seven or eight various crops, as on the small farms
in Belgium, would enable each plant to find nitrogen,
hydrogen, and phosphates for itself. Instead of
expecting farmers to ale mbicate their brains with
crucibles, retorts and gallipots, the police might compel
some one chemist to rent a farm of ten acres, and so
bring him to book. The farmer should be re-
minded that nearly 5-6ths of England is cold, sour,
and wet; they are neatly covering their land with
thin slices of a substance not far superior to clay,
carefully puddling the ground underneath with the
sole of the plough, at least once a year, to prevent the
escape of stagnant water—hermetically. The Go-
vernment ought to send half-pay officers to survey all
the accumulations of Peruvian—surnamed by a
grateful catachresis, Improrian Guano—and pur-
chase them all. Then, with a better system of
money payments, Mr. Tidd Pratt's Cuffe-street
savings, instead of being industriously diverted
to London circulation, private banks, exchange-mer-
chants, loan firms, court Jews, Consol-market,
and Ministerial blunders, must be industriously con-
verted into advances of 1/. notes, and usance for the
real tillers. Gives us back the times
" 'Ere England's woes began,
When every rood of ground maintained its man,"
The bases of Pythpgcrean ethics were-Ist. Quod
non posuisti ne tollas; 2d. DkPOSITUM reddas. Yet
Sir C. Wood marvels when the Furies of Cuffe-
street claim their deposits without any instructions on
his part. Excuse the digression, in favorem vitae.
The depth and richness of soil in France are seen
wherever they pretend to do it justice by trenching or
other means, as in gardens and vineyardg: French
differs from Anglo-Saxon farming pretty much as
ancient from modern ; comparing Varro and
Columella with Young and Wakefield. " Theirs
was correct, precise, regular, persevering, but alto-
gether unelastic ; ours coarse, without system, in-
correct, often wasteful, but full of resource." Also
the noble Romans cheated the rest or the farm to
pamper the vine. They have in France a sort of
Code Napoleon, founded on Pandects of Justinian.
Still, if our system is wasteful, it is inexcusable, for
agriculture, after all, is but prudentia major, farming
revenue, husbanding resources, and a good housewife
much wanted; farming is high-farming, low-
farming is no-farming. Every farm is a
specialty in its objects, its means, its diffi-
culties, and its history. Chemistry and machinery
may run up ugly compOt and cast iron, but cannot
teach men to keep land clean and dry and well ma-
nured ; or, in other words, to plough deep, sow clean,
and much heavy. The latter sentence includes the
former : to " plough deep" is to keep the land dry, in
all but extreme cases, and to " sow clean" is to keep
the land clean : hence golden plough and divine
honours from China westward. How can you sow
clean with spell alone, except you turn a battalion on
to the land, will it be clean when you have done ?—lt
will be even as Lupercus his beard, growing faster
than shaver could dispose of it.
" Entrapelus tonsor, dam circuit ora Lnperci
Expungitque genas, alters barbs subit."
In England the rural population always detested
feudality. They were right. It is the bane of agricul-
ture, distinguishing this craft from steeple or fox-chases,
battues, murderous fights of keepers with poachers,
and county gaols—territorial rights and wrongs
—mouth honour, praise which the poor heart would
fain repress but dares not—royalties of brick-field as
of Widdicomb and his royal property (royalty of
twopence per catalogue 1851)—in short Real pro-
perty—fief-simple—taxgathering in capite—Charta
Forestm repealed to great detriment of Hygeia—non
obstante clause,a la Wiseman: any natural or acquired
rights to the contrary notwithstanding.

THE LATE MURDER AT lIAVERFORDWEST.—We
learn that the police, who have been untiring in their exer-
tions, have at length been successful in ther efforts, and have
produced evidence which cannot fail to fix the guilt of the
murder of the old woman Elizabeth Barnard upon a man and
woman named Thomas Thomas and Jane Evans, both of
whom have been fully committed by the magistrates to take
their trial at the next assizes for the capital offence. It will
be remembered that the old woman was picked up in a ditch
near the Methodist Chapel, in a dying condition, and that, a
post mortem examination of the body havinc, been made, the
death was clearly traced to injuries that had-been inflicted
upon her.

These steamers collectively brought specie to the
aintitint of 3,193,000 dollars in gold dust.
Upwards of 4,200 000 dollars in gold dust was
waiting at Panama for shipment when the three
steamers left.

The destruction caused by the fire was being ra-
pidly repaired.
The intelligence from the overland emigrants was
very disasterous ; multucles were said to be starving,
and cholera has broken out amongst them. The
most praiseworthy efforts were being made by the
people of California to send over the mountains pro-
visions and waggons for the sufferers. Business at
San Francisco continued brisk, and the !money-
market sound.
We have advices from Jamaica to the 31st ult.
The cholera was raging with great virulence. The
Kingston returns for the 28th report 53 new cases

18 recoveries, and 30 deaths—remaining 85 ; at Port

—remaining 34. Sanitary measures were being
actively carried into effect.

tectien of the French ship Mogadore had been ac-
cepted by the authorities.
At New Orleans 100,0001. had been subscribed to
promote the Tehuantepec railway.
From Venezuela we have advices to the 13th ult.
The country was tranquil and the elections proceed-
ing without disturbance. The voting was said to be
in favour of Monagas. The Kingston papers announce
the arrival at that port of the mail steamer Clyde,
from Vera Cruz, with 100,000 dolls. on freight, but
no news.

(BY TELEGRAPH.)
NEW YORK, Nov. 15.

The steamer Atlantic's accounts have not affected
the markets here. Southern telegraphic advices show
no change in cotton after the receipt of the steamer
Africa's news. Hunt (Whig) is elected Governor of
New fork State. The President has issued a pro.
clamation promulgating a commercial treaty with the
Sandwich Islands.

Stock market flatter yesterday and to-day. No
change worthy of mention in Government or State

there is a rattier better inquiry, but the supply is large.
The rates era without chAlge. First-class paper goes at

large.

Cotton— Taleott's Circular says:—." Our last receipts
were per the Asia, the 15ta inst. The market remained
on that day, arid fur two days following. in the same
dull stare as advised. This dulness was caused by the
unsettled condition of the market at New Orleans. On
the sth, 6th, and 7th the sales effected averaged 500
bales per day, at weakened and declining rates; indeed,
on the 6th a few sales, in all about 400 bales, were
effected of middling fair Boweds, 14ic., to I below the
quotations previously current. But this announcement
brought buyer,. freely forward, and a large business
could have been done if sellers would have submitted to
that reduction. On the 7th but few sales were effected
at 14e. for middling, 14;)_c. for good middling, and 141 e.
for middling fair Boweds, strict classification. At this
range about 4,000 bales were offered, chiefly of middling
and good middling descriptions, which were taken for
exportation on the Bth and 9th inst. No orders received
per Africa, which steamer arrived on the morning of
the Bth.

Grain is in demand for home use and export, with

o'clock. He ran at Liverpool for the Sefton Cup the
previous week, and was on his way home on Friday,
when Mr. Irwin, having been offered a large price for
him at Crewe (we believe over 400 guineas), telegraphed
to Messrs. Lucas to stop him, the party buying being
desirous to keep him in England until the following
Monday, to enable a:friend to see him. The gentleman
noticoming, the horse was sent home on Monday evening,
and got on safely until about four o'clock the

became quite unmanageable, and before long kicked his

There is no truth in the rumour that Mr. Osbaldeston

GREAT COUNTY MEETING.
PROCEEDINGS OF THE POPE.
(From the York Herald of Saturday.)
A county meeting, convened by the High Sheriff
(Wm. Ruson, Esq.), in pursuance to a requisition, took
place this day (Friday), in the yard of York Castle, "for
the purpose of considering the propriety of presenting
an address to her Majesty, and of adopting such other
measures as may seem to be required by the publication
of the Bull of the 24th day of September, 1850, wherein
an attempt is made to establish, by Papal authority, a
Romish hierarchy within this realm." At twelve
o'clock, the time fixed fur the meeting, there were not
more than 500 persons present, but the numbers gradu-
ally increased, until, at uue period in the afternoon, they
amounted to about 2,500. The High Sheriff presided.
On his right, in front of the hustings, were the Els!
Fitzwilliatn, the Earl of Zetland, Lord Feversham, and
ether noblemen and gentlemen whose names were ap-
pended to the requisition, and on his left were the Hon.
Charles Langdale and several Roman Catholic gentle-
men. There, however, appeared to be very few Roman
Catholics in the body of the meeting.
The HIGH SHERIFF commenced the proceedings, by
calling upon his Under-Sheriff (W. Gray, Esq.) to read
the requisition, in compliance with which the meeting
had been called.
The lima SHERIFF then made some observations, in
the course of which he said he wished it to go forth to
the world that at that meeting all had been fair and
above board. He entreated for all the speakers a patient
hearing; and he hoped such a resolution would be
passed, as would show that the men of Yorkshire are
determined, at all hazards, to support the supremacy of
the Queen.—(Cheers.)
Earl FITZWILLIAM then rose, and was received with
loud cheers. The Noble Lord spoke as follows:—Mr.
High Sheriff and gentlemen, I shall, in the first instance,
repeat to you that prayer and recommendation with
which the High Sheriff concluded his address—l shall
repeat to you the recommendation to hear every one
with fairness and impartiality.—(Hear.) A large period
of life has elapsed since I had last the pleasure of meet-
ing the county of York in this castle-yard; and little
did I expect that at my period of life I should ever
have thought it necessary to appear, even once again,
before you in this assembly of the county.—(Cheers.)
But, gentlemen, man can bat little foresee the cir-
cumstances in which he may hereafter be placed.
ITe has bat a faint glimpse of those duties which
may be cast upoa him by new events, and little con-
ception of the manner and the circumstances under
which he may be called upon to perform these
duties.—(Loud cheers.) If, gentlemen, this had
been an occasion upon which there was to
be a discussion about some small political question—if
it had been so small as this, the question whether one
man or another were to occupy the place of Prime
Minister of England, I should little have thought it
worth my while to appear before you, or to ask you for
any opinion upon a subject so comparatively insignificant
and contemptible.—(Applause.) But, gentlemen, if I am
not mistaken—if I have not taken a very erroneous and
distorted view of the question which is now before us—it
is one of a far different kind.—(Applause.) If there be
any gentleman here present of that faith, which I am
not come to oppose, but the spread of which I desire
you will give your best adjustance to check—(Cheers.)
—if there be any such gentleman here present, he will
probably concede to me that great indeed must be the
pressure, according to my view of it, of the duty which
has nailed me forth upon the present occasion; because
he must recollect that if there be any man in this county,
who has sacrificed—whose family have sacrificed much
in former times, for the purpose of restoring to those,
whom I then thought, and still think, to have been un-
justly deprived of their political rights.—l venture to
say, and I appeal to those of that faith, whether I
am stating it too strongly that I am that individual.
—(Applause.) (" You built a dozen churches at your
own expense.) There are few, probably, among
those whom I now see before me, who recollect—and
still fewer who bore a part in it—who recollect the great
contest in which I was engaged in this castle-yard, in
which, by the assistance of the freeholders, the then
electors of Yorkshire, unmixed as they were with those
elements which have since been added to them, it was by
their assistance I was enabled to carry the great cause of
religious liberty. I have never regretted for one moment
what was done upon that occasion. I have never, for
one moment, doubted the policy—doubted the wisdom
of that policy—by which were thrown down those
barriers, which debarred our Roman Catholic fellow-
subjects from the enjoyment of their political rights.—
(Applause.) 'I look back with pleasure and satisfaction
to what was done upon that and upon subsequent occa-
sions, until after the lapse of a long period of time, jus-
tice was at length done to the Roman Catholic popula-
tion of these realms. I said to the Roman Catholic
1 population of these realms; but gentlemen, I recollect
that I have here made use of an expression which is not
applicable. When, indeed, I go across St. George's
Channel, and aen resident there, then I feel that the
term population is applicable. lam a Protestant land-
lord, surrounded by a Catholic tenantry.—( Applause.)
I remember well, when I felt it my duty to this great
country to retire from their service, because I believed,
in the advanced age of my parent, I might possibly be
called from your service at a time which might
be inconvenient. But when, after having retired, I was
called by another constituency to serve them, I remem-
ber well that one of the great charges against me, and
which I had to meet in Protestant Northamptonshire,
was this, that I had been a party to the erection of Ro-
man Catholic chapels in Ireland. I have so been a party
—(Applause)—l will again be a party in so doing.—
(Applause.) I declare to you—l declare to you Cetho-
lies—l declare to you, the Protestant population of York-
shire—l declare that I will do so again.—(Applause.) I
do so—l will do so—upon my own estates in Ireland,
because I feel it necessary that the population of that
country should have the means of worshipping. their
Creator in a decent manner.—(Applause.) But I hare
said that I made use of an incorrect terra, when I spoke
of the Roman Catholic population of those realms. In
Ireland, indeed, there is a Roman Catholic population;
but to talk of the Roman Catholic population of
Eng-
land
is to melte, a misapplication of terms.—(Ap-
plause.) There is no Roman Catholic population in
England—(lnterruption)—except, perhaps, where the
wants of the people have called for a large emigration of
Irish. A Roman Catholic population in England is
a misnomer. For the Roman Catholics I have
the highest respect; but they will give me leave to say
they are rather the monuments, respectable monu-
ments of bygone times, than individuals holding opinions
applicable to the present state of the world.—(Cheers..)
I look upon them with the respect with which I venerate
an ancient building, or an ancient monument, debased
partly, and perhaps something else in bygone times.—
(Cheers.) Now come the question?, what has been
done, and what is advisable to be done.—(flesr, hear.)
And first, gentlemen, let me ask you this, question—l
anticipate the answer, but I desire that you will give me
that answer, and give it to me intelligibly—Do you de-
sire to think for yourselves?—(•" Yes," and great cheer-
ing.) Then, gentlemen, I ask you to express that de-
termination. This is no question of religion. I know it
will be so represented on my right hand and on my left
—by certain Protestants—by the Roman Catholics—by
I how

some portion of the Diseenters. Now, itn ot.
sat
say this question will be so represented?a
it in expectation; I say it almost in knowledge. If
man can have a predicate knowledge of that
which
he sees, I know well how this question will be repre-
sented,' because I think I see how it has been repre-
sented. It is represented as a question between ;:to
Church of England and the Church of Rome. I engage
in no such question. Ido not ask you to concur
with me in the proceeding I shall have to propose to
you, upon any ground of that kind. This is no question

RACING FIXTURES FOR 1851.
The following are the present fixtures as nearly as
we can make out:—

MARCH.

The till ufliAnEwo3D then presentlA himself, and
said it had ttli#n to his lot to second the address so ably

proposed by Earl Fitzxilliam. lie saw many Ronal,
Catholics around him with whom he was acquaints-l.
and he wished to continue friendly with thaw. He,
however, was a Churchman, and an advocate for perfect
religious liberty; but he felt called upon by his God, by
his country, and by his children, to put a stop to the
advance of this Rowish hierarchy in this country. The
Noble Earl proceeded to allude to certain Roman Ca-
tholic doctrines and opinions, during which he was re-
peatedly interrupted.
The Hon. C. LANGDALE moved, as an amendment,
" This meeting is of opinion that any interference
with the doctrine or discipline of the religion, or religious
opinions of any of her Majesty's subjects, will be a
violation of the rights of conscience, against which this
meeting protests."

Sir Wit. LAWSON, Bart., of Brough-hall, seconded the
amendment.

M. MILNES, Esq., was of opinion that the establish-
ment of a Papal hterarchy ought not to be tolerated.
W. C. MAXWELL, Esq., upbraided the noble proposer
of the address for having changed his opinions, and as-
serted that the authority of the bishops would only be
spiritual. In reference to the Premier's letter he said h,
never heard of a more unwise, ill-judged, and ill-timed
document, a statement which was received with mucb
disapprobation mingled with cheers.
Earl FITZ WILLIAM briefly replied, stating that he did
not dispute the truisua contained in the amendment, and
would be ready to support it at a proper time.
The amendment was then put, and was declared to
have been negatived by an enormous majority. The
motion was then put and carried by a still larger ma-
jority.

Tfie Earl of ZETLAND proposed that the High Sheriff
be requested to sign the addresses on behalf of the
meeting, and present the same to the Queen.
JOHN RAND, Esq., Mayor of Bradford seconded the
motion.

CHARLES LANGDALE, Esq., disclaimed that the pro-
ceedings of Roman Catholics that day were but a
manceuvre, as the previous speaker had intimated.
The motion was then agreed to.
Lord FEVERSUAM proposed a vote of thanks to the
High Sheriff for his able conduct on this occasion.
The Lion. C. LANGDALE seconded the motion, which
was passed by acclamation.
The lIIGH SHERIFF briefly respnnded, and the mooting
broke up at a quarter-past three o'clock.

AMERICA AND ENGLAND.
BY LADY EMMELINE STUART WORTLEY.
Between t 4ro giant brother lands
How proudly roll th' eternal seas—
Seas that, like boundless boundaries, seem
Worthiest of lands like these!
Atlantic! not thy towering waves,
Skyward by rushing tempests curled,
E'er raised their labouring crests so high

As these lands heave the world!
Their progre3s wake-s and wing's the earth,

Thai tr‘i:rnbles to their stir and strife—

Tossing, like tempest-troubled sea,
Her waves of thought and life.
No warrior barks now plough the deep,
That roars and heaves between the twain;
But arczosies of wealth and worth
Go whitening half the main.
And what a noble pathway 'tis,
For two such lands of power and pride,
That billowy ocean! vast and dread,
Whose mountain waves divide:—
Divide! Net so; the kingly barks
Of both are proudly there at home,
Glad as white shepherd tents of peace,
Rear'd 'mid those flocks of foam.
Divide? Th' old ocean seams to be

Part cf these realm% of strength! Divide?
America and England still
Call thee their own, thou tide!
For what American hut feels

Thou 'rt dear as o'en his obvn farnel land?—
What Englishman but (L ~,Ins the main
His heritage unspann'd?

Sweep on, thou glorious world of waves,
In power 351 d rushing triumph sweep,
While eyes look on the© fondly still,
And call thee " home," thou deep.
Ono blue, bright, broad America
Thou shin'st to loving western eyes,
While still a silvery England seems
There for her sons to rise.

One crested blue America,
To faithful western eyes thou art;
One heaven-kissed, sun-blazed England, too,
For the true island heart.

Thus e'en that wave which parts them joins
Their country to their clinging souls,
As 'twere her moving, molten self,
That deep around them rolls.
Oh, as to each like each thou seemest,
E'er link them both in peace and love,
In union lasting as thine own,
With yon blue vault above.
Together let them seem to rest,
Blent proudly in thy breast thou main
In thine and nature's neutral space,
Mingle in one the twain.

Sweep on thou mighty world of waves,
In dazzling light a glorious gloom,
While those true hearts in thee shall greet
Their country and their home.
Ne'er be is lightly said that thou
Divid'st those brother lards. Roll on,
Amnica and England, still,
o.3enn, call thee their own.

THE SOUL OF SONG AT THE OPERA iIOUSE.—At
the dinner given by Jenny Lind at her hotel, the three
mostdistirguished artistes of this metropolis were pre-
sdit. Jenny Lind, the high priestess of the concert-
room, presided. On her left was the representative
of the tragic muse, Chs,rl.,tto Cushman, and on
the right Parodi, the dramatic vocalist—each first
in her peculiar style of art. Never, in this
metropolis, have three such distinguisned public
favourites met at one table, and it only needs
an-American painter to represent the beautiful picture.
With Jenny Lind and Charlotte Cushmam, the public
have become familiar. Next Monday night we shall
commence an acquaintance with the grand dramatic
style of Parodi. Maretzek has put the tickets at the rea-
sonable rate of two dollars each, and that sum will in-
duce the whole musical population to strive for seats.
Parodi will be last, but not least, in public favour. The
excitement is steady, but it will be decided in its cha-
racter. So we go.—New York Herald, Nov. 6.

THE "ONE" SCHOOL OF
VOLUNTARY EDUCATIONISTS.THE
(From the Leeds Times.)
Nall might Mr. Rylands express his astonishment at
the Educational Meeting in the Court House, o Tuesday
evening, when told by the audience there, that the sum
of the voluntary educational efforts to educate the poorer
classes of Leelt,, was one day school! Whst? That
the voluntary educationists of Leeds, who say that volun.
taryism can do anything, is doing everything, to educate
the people—that L-eds, the very centre of the voluntary
education movement—should provide only ono day-
school for a population of 160,000— this is indeed passing
strange? We have heard of the one day-school before.
It has grown to be famous as representative of the power
of the voluntary educationists in Leeds. It was, we be_
Eeve, olt-sl by Mr. Baines, in the Cloth Hall-yard, a ft;ve
months ago, as the school of the voluntary educationists;
it then contained, he said, 95 girls and 71 boys. So that,
out of 26,000 children in the borough of Leeds, who ought
to be at, school, the voluntary educationists provide one
day-school, wherein they educate 166 children! The sum
of the efforts of the voluntary educationists in Leeds, is
long letters to Lord J. Russell aed others, long speeches as
to the adequacy of voluntaryism to educate the people ;
and one day-school! See what the Church is doing
meanwhile! We look into the last report of her Ma-
jesty's Inspectors of Education, and we find the Rev.
Mr. Wath ins inspecting no fewer than 34 Church schools
in the same district in which the voluntary educationists
have Planted their one school ! And at these Church
sools not fewer than 4,703 children were found re-
ceiving
instruction. But in all cases they were obtain-
in; pecuniary aid from the Committee of Council. his
this alone that enables many of them to live. The
founders and promoters of these schools do not pretend
to be -able to educate the children of the poor by volun.
