injuries that are produced in them by solitary habits, excesses, and
refection. BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D..

burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member
of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs. It un-
fortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indul-
gence and vicious habits, while suffering from their invariable con-
sequences, unwisely entertains a fear of apolying to a qualified physi-
cian for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erro-
neously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of
art, alike restrict him and proveni bin seeking 'or assistance where
alone it can be procured. Dr. LA'MERT has taken the highest
medical honours, as his diplomas testify, and the great extent of his
dractice for many years is a guarantee for his professional experi-
ence, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these
diseases.

THE PASHA OF EGYPT'S CHAL-

LENGE.
(From Bell's Life in London.)
Our roil lers will regret to find, from the subjoined
corre3pondence between Mr. C. Greville and the stewards
of the Jockey Club, that the proposed match be-
tween the English and the Arab horses, so far as
the Jockey Club is concerned, has fallen to the
ground. Unless, there fire, some spirited individuals
take up the gauntlet, his Highnesi's desire to test the
speed and stoutness of his horses is not likely to be
gratified;—

(Copy.)
'• Brutor.-street, Dec. 6, 1849.

" Sir,—The correspondence between Mr. Murray and
me upon the Pasha of Egypt's challenge having now
been long enough published to be generally known, it
appears to me that if this matter• is to procce i it
ought to be pushed on another step. I therefore take
the liberty of suggesting to the stewards of the Jockey
Club, and I beg you will request them, to name any gen-
tleman they may think fit to act as a committee fit the
purpose of arranging this match, if it should bo found
possible to make it. The Jockey Club, in its corporate
capacity, can have nothing to do with it, and I do not by
any m• ins propose that the stewards should incur any re-
sponsibility of any sort or kind; but I think such an affair
as this can only be handled by a committee, and it is
very desirable that such committee should possess the
confidence of the racing world. One, therefore, which
was (originally) named by the stewards of the Jockey
Ciub would have more weight than any self-constituted
committee, a❑d it would have a semblance of authority
which would serve to li,eo off the volunteers whoa) in-
terference Mr. Murray so earnestly deprecates. I should
propose, therefore, that the stewards should invite cer-
tain persons (not no_ressarily members of the Jockey
Club) to form a committee, with power to add to their
number, it being perfectly un.lerstood that the com-
mittee is to act on its own behalf and quite independently
of the Jockey Club.
"I am, Sir, your obedient seavant,
"C. GREVILLIS,

"Mr. C. Weatherby."

" London, Feb. 2.

" Dear Greville,—"bVe have given our best considera-
tion to the proposition transmitted through you by his
Highness the Pasha of Egypt, and although we think it
very probable that partie4 might be found willing upon
their own account to accept the challenge to the full
amount of the stake proposed, we have come to the con-
clusion that it would be inexpedient that we should do
so on the part of the Jockey Club as a trial of merit be-
tween the horses of the reipeetive countries.
"You are well aware that the Jockey Club, as a body,
has no control over the owners of race horses, and that

it is a matter of certainty that the owners of the best
horses in England will not subject them t) all the risks
attendant upon a long land and sea voyage, change of
climate, food, and water. The match, therefore, if made,
cannot be, as his Highness desires it should be con-
sidered, a test of the comparative merits of the best
horses of England and Egypt. Independently of this,
the ground proposed, according to the accounts we have
received, is wildly -unfit for a trial c,f speed, and the
probabilities of accident appear so great as to make it
very objectionable even as a test of stoutness. On these
grounds, therefore, we aro not disposed to recommend
the acceptance of the challenge on the cart of the Jockey
Club. " We remain, yours faithfully,

" Mr. C. C. Greville."

her creatures, she devised means to get the old man
to abdicate in behalf of her son, whose name is Francis
Joseph, although he is not the rightful heir of the
throne. As soon as this young man was invested with
the imperial authority, although he had no claims
over Hungary, having no right to its crown, masses
of troops were poured thereunto, spreading destruction
with fire and sword, and dealing out death wherever
they appeared ; and all this because the people
dared to manifest zeal for their country, their con-
stitution, and their laws. In the flee of all this, what
could the brave Hungarians do in order to preserve their
nationality, but take the government into their own
hands, and appoint Kossuth, the greatest man amongst
them, to be their President Governor, and to set in mo-
tion the most effectual means in their power to protect
their country from the ravages of the tyrants. And,
notwithstanding all their disadvantages, they succeeded
in conquering the Austrians and the Croats, and to drive
them out of their country; and conquerors they were,
until the cruel hordes of Russia came over to assist their
enemies. Neither could the combined forces of the two
empires subdue the Hungarians, until they succeeded to
bribe General Georgey to betray his trust. 0 Georgey I
Georgey! thy name is rotten for ever. The country is
taken possession of, the nation is subdued, and the sol-
diers are constrained t lay down their arms; and
now another men° comes before us. How shall
I describe it What meanness—what cruelties—
what butcheries do I sce. Hungary is proclaimed
to be under martial law—and a man cf the name of
Haynau appointed far its governor—a man whose heart
is iron and his feeling brass, and his soul boiling within
him in thirst for human blood. This is the monster who
has been elet tssd by Austria tote the civil and military
governor of the Hungarians. In his fangs behold the
amiable, the generous, the moderate, and the honourable
Count Louis Battbyany, brought out of his prison, and
without a trial, he is sentenced to be hanged. Batthyany
was a Protestant nobleman, who a little Lefore the war
had given the whole income of his estates for ono year
towards the education of the people, and had conveyed
over hundreds of acres of land for the benefit cf the
poor for ever. He had been chosen by the Diet to
to the Prime Mintster of the Kingdom of Hungary,
and his appointment sanctioned by the Emperor, and
in that capacity had done everything within the reach
of his influence to resure peace on constitutional
terms. Yet behold this nobleman, without being guilty
of any crime, but because he was a favourite with the
people, and zealous for the welfare of his country, sen-
tenced by Haynaa to the most ignominious punishment
by death. One morning there were nine Hungarian
officers brough out to be executed on the gibbet; and in
order to allow the appetites of the Austrians to foist
upon the Hungarian woes, they spend three long hours
in going through the tarrible and heartrending cere-
mony.. And, let all the tribes of the human family hear

Austria, and the combined cruelty of that power with
Russia as its ally; and, feeling this, they deemed it an
imperious duty to call together a public assembly of
their fellow-citizens, to lay the case before them, and to
enlist on the side of the exiles an expression of the po-
pular feeling of this country, as far as their means ex-
tended. Those means were not to bo thought of no im-
portance. The ocean—the vast ocean was but made up
of drops:—and, though Bangor was but a speck in com-
parison with the entire country, yet it was
part and parcel of that country, and would
help to form a portion of that general senti-
ment of abhorrence towards cruelty, and of sympathy
with patriotic endeavour, which were, or ought to be,
characteristic of every British bosom. A great warrior
had said—" England expects every man to do his duty;"
and the saying had deservedly grown into a proverb.
It was not for the present company to know how far
their expression of opinion would act upon the public
mind in this country, or in other countries; but it was
their duty to express their opinion, and leave the result
in the bands of Him by whom the minds of kings were in-
fluenced, and in whom the destinies of nations were in-
volved. What ought to be, and he trusted would be,
nay, already was, their feeling on the subject of Austrian
treachery, and Russian officious meddling cruel policy,
had been already Wed; and, truly had it been
said that, in affording a refuge to the unhappy
exiles, and refusing to give them up to the
brutal butchers who demanded them, in order to
slay them in cold blood, the Turkish Sultan
had evinced, in lieu of the so-termed Christian, that
spirit of benevolence, and of brotherhood, which was the
one distinguishing feature a the Gospel. The resolu-
tion he was moving adverted to this truth; and said that
the Sultan, by his generous conduct, had excited the
admiration of this country: and the cheers with which
they greeted the last speaker, when he adverted to the
fact, proved how forcibly they themselves felt it. The
next point to which the resolution adverted was the
conduct of Lord Palmerston. Of that conduct there
could not be two opinions amongst reflecting men
of every politicul party. Of what use was it to
say that nations should act as brothers of one family, if
their rulers did not act so. Lord Palmerston had nobly
recognised the very principle which their own chair-
man had affirmed ; and it was their duty to back up
the beneficent and generous policy of that high-
minded, experienced, determined, but pacific minister.
He evinced the most statesman-like qualities; and was
fully equal to the exigencies of his position as war
minister: for he so used his functions as to prolong and
strengthen al the guarantees and conditions by which
alone the peace of Europe could be preserved. This
was the highest praise that could he awarded to any
man entrusted with the power that was given to his
Lordship's keeping. There would be those who, slow
to aid in any good work, would ridicule the present
meeting, and ask what good it coull cffect. They had
a ready answer in the fact that they had done their duty,
by evincing that sympathy which was all they could
bestow; and the Hungarian exiles themselves confessed
this; witness Vie thanks given to the promoters of the
Bala meeting, described in a late number of the
ficrald. Let not the expression of sympathy be
despised! Like the mite cf the widow, though small,
it was inductive of a blessing, and recognised as of
value even by sacred lips. The Divine Being referred
to had given another parable by which they might
adjust their conduct. In order to enforce the tie c f
brotherhood, he described one who fell amongst
thieves, in a strange part of the country, where he was
not known. Those who coldly passed him by were not
the wastrels and losels of society; but a Priest and a
Levite, men of station, of influence, and of repute ;
but it was tie Samaritan who poured the oil and
the wine of generous sympathy into the wounds
of the st -anger ; and Christ emphatically sinks
all the differences of creed, country, and condition
the Samaritan being like a dog unto the Jew
and point:lly demands " Who was the neighbour?"
There was the spirit of universal love, and of all com-
prehending wisdom in the question : and the answer
truly was "He who had compassion on him." Assu-
redly! The Levite and the Priest were not guiltless.
There can be no work of supererogation. Compassion,
and sympathy with deserving objects are duties that
cannot be disregarded without sin. He spoke advisolly.
The highest authority, that of the inspired volume, de-
clared the fact. If they did not avow their detesta'ion
of the tyranny they did all they could to justify and to
encourage the tyrant. The opinion of England would be
looked up to. It would be influential. And of that
opinion their own avowal would form a part. Before he
sat down he would advert to another topic. It had been
absurdly urged that the present movement in favour of
TT

;, and let' it be a lasting reproach, upon Haynau

upon the House cf Hapsburg—and upon the Govern
went of Austria. Behold gentlewomen, wives and sis.
ters of some of the nobles of Hungary, brought out
upon a public platform, and there ktript and made to
bleed under the scourge cf. the :common executioner,
and for what ? Noshing, but lending a help.
ing hand to protect their husbands and brothers.
Even after Kossuth and his compatriots had
fled to the territories of Turkey, and teen received
there, such is the thirst of Nicholas of Russia, and
Joseph of Austria, for blood, thct they had ranee use of
every schema they could devise in order to constrain the
Sultan to deliver them up to their brutish revenge. I
call not upon my fellow-countrymen to condemn Aus-
tria, and to sympathise with llungary, for I know after
hearing these statement', that there is not ono witlin

the Principality who can help doing so. There is 2
God in heaven, and the earth also is a department of
His empire. His eyes are upon the ways of man, and
His actions are all recorded in His book. Behold the
cruel and perfidious conduct of Austria and Russia to-
wards Bohemia, Galicia, Poland, and Hungary ascend-
ing up in remembrance before him, and I hear a voice
proceeding from his throne, saying, " Vengeance is
mine, I will repay, saith the Lord." Aud we e, woe unto
them when the cup of vengeance shall be handed to their
lips I
The CHAIRMAN called upon Mr. Rees, proprietor cf
the Carnarvon and Denbigh Herald, to, second the re-
solution.
Mr. BEES stood up, amidst a most cordial greeting,
and said that, although taken at disadvantage',—not
having for more than a few moments been aware that
he was to be called upon,—he was now as all times
ready to avow the natural feeling of sympathy for
wrongs, such as Hungary and her petriotie chieftains
had sustained. The revel end gentleman, who had
just sat down, had so lucidly and minutely detailed
the history of the Hungarian struggle for constitu-
tional f eedom, the tyrannical proceedings that had
caused it, and the savage atrocities that had followed
in its wake, that it would be superfluous fir him to
say anything on that topic. It was clear that Hungary
was not an integral or component part of Aus-
tria, but an appended and independent state, bearing
a similar relation thereto as that which Hanover bore
to England. They were under the same ruler, but not
the lame form of government; and ,the Austrian Em-
peror was sworn, when he became installed as King cf
Hungary, to eni)rce, protect, and obey the constitution
that had been framed as the sole principle of its govern-
ment. This fact was so clear that it was incapable of
being put in question: and when the Hungarian ruler
betrayed his trust, and violated the constitution, he ceased
that moment t) be the legal governor of the country;
and his subjects were freed from their allegiance. The
fact that the Emperor cf Austria had been counselled
practically to negative and annul the constitutional law
of Hungary was the more to be regretted, not only be-
cause the n cuts were treacherous, savage, and contrary
to the generally accepted rules by which strife is regu-
lated in all civilized communities, but because, the
aim of the Hungarian Magnates in the higher classes
was to midget 3 the condition of the people, and extend
to tie lower classes a partici' ation of all the benefits col-
lectit ely coeferred upon the country by the spirit of its
constitution. It was much to be desired that this amia-
ble and brotherly: feeling were brought into active
operation all over the world; and surely then they were
bound to admire those heroic and kind-hearted men who
had evinced so noble a disposition towards the classes of
their fAlow-countrymen less favoured by the gifts of
liertune, and position in society. Were he not address-
ing an auditory chiefly Welsh, and there fire fearful of
trespassing, this was a branch e the subject which might
easily be made a fit theme for a few more observet:ow.
But he would pass on to other considerations. Set
ting aide the treachery ti at caused the war, and the
cruel manner in which the Austrians and Russians had
conducted it—the shameful and atrocious conduct that had
marked its sequel was not to be ferg Ater. If soldiers
taken in arms were deserving of punishment, and chief-
tains driven into exile were to be hunted out of countries
from whose hospitality they had sought and found
protection, surely the demands of retribution might,
be stayed, and the spirit of the most relentless ven-
geance be appeased! But no! It was not thus that
the raga of the tyrants could be allayed. Tnere
must be a more savage and inhuman display of
the worst passions that can deform the beast. Harm-
less women, and helpless innocent children, must be
made the victims of barbarous and revoltitg outrage,
and whipped publicly and openly in the gaze of a bru-
talized soldiery. Was this in keping with human na-
ture? Did it not rather resemble what the imagination
might conceive of fiend-like malignity? The feelings
of mankind revolted from such horrors, and were they
not known to be undeniably true they would be regarded
as fictions rather than as facts. (The speaker then con-
trasted the conduct pursued by the Tusks towards the
refugees; and observed that they had shown themselves
the better Christians of the two, a remark, the obvious
truth of which was recognised by a hearty round of
cheers.) He would not trespass longer on their atten-
tion, but conclude by reading the, resolution, which was
as follows:

" 1. That this meeting considers the conduct of the
Austrian Government, in its late attacks upon the rights
and liberties of the Hungarian people, to have been de-
ceitful, atrocious, and lull of injustice and tyranny.
That, after subduing them by the assistance of Russia,
its conduct towards them has been oppressive and cruel.
This meeting, then fire, is desirous of expressing its un-
feigned sympathy with the brave Magyars; and they
call upon all the nations of the earth to exercise every
legitimate influence in their behalf.
The CHAIRMAN put the resolution for approval to the
company, who by a show of hands unanimously affirmed
it. He then called upon Mr. Smith, Editor of Vie Car-
naevon and Denbigh Herald, to propose the second reso-
lution.

Mr. SMITII said that his endeavour to impress the
meeting with the most important and serious views of
which the subject was capable, would be much impeded
by his ignorance of the language of that long and able
aldress from the first speaker, which had been so cor-
dially greeted by its hearers. In all that the Chairman
and Mr. Rees had said he cordially concurred. Ile rose
to move the alcption of a resolution which he would first
read:— _ _ _

2. That the'noble conduct of the Turkish Sultan, in
refusing to comply with the iniquitous demand of Itu-
sia and Austria fur the extradition of Kossuth and the
other Hungarian and Polish refugees, has excited univer-
sal admiration throughout this country. That the thanks
of this meeting be tendered to Lord Palmerston (of
whose general policy it highly approves), for having
energetically supported the Turkish Government in
tLeir resistance to this unparalleled aggression; and that
his Lordship be assured that his efforts to preserved the
independence of an ancient and valuable a'ly of the
British nation, will receive the cheerful and ready sup-
port of all cia3ses in this country, provided that the
Turkish Government adheres to its original resolution;
and whilst it affords protection to the refugees, imposes
no restraint on their 1 ersonal liberty."
It had been well observed by their worthy chairman
that the Great Author of the universe had made "of
ono blood all the nations of the earth," and that the
fact of his having done so constituted a tio ;it. brother-
hood Letwein all the races, tribes, and nations of the
human family, which could not be lost sight of without
guilt. This was a most important truth ; and it was
to the influence which it exerted upon the minds. of
humane and honourable men, that the present meeting
was to bo attributed. The promoters of the meeting
felt that the rights, privileges, and dearest social ties of
the Hungarian people generally, and of Ler refugees in
particular, had been trampled on by the tre.lchery of

Hungary was a war movemeet; and-that no true friend
of peace could join it. If this were so he (Mr. Smith)
would not now be speaking to them in advocacy of the
present measure, for none more than himself desired
the continuance of peace, and was more determinately
pledged to uphold it. The fact, however, was, that
peace was not to be preserved by a cringing, mean,
cowering, policy. A bold, full, truthful, frank-speaking,
honest, sincerity of speech, and of will—a will ade-
quately armed to give effect to its own dictum—was
the best, nay the solo, guarantee for peace. That was
the secret of Lord Palmerston's success. He awed the
nations into good behaviour; and secured to his country
the augury and prestige of bIICCOSS, by the firm, cool
policy in which he alike refrained from taking offence
at trifles, and determined to resist a real encroachment
and repress an offered insult. This was the true me-
dium. Nations should act as the families of a hamlet
or villa—not intrude upon each ether's privacy at every
trill', but always come to the rescue in caee of any se-
rious disturbance ; just as they would pass a
neighbour's house without interineddling with
any trivial dispute, but rush in to keep order when-
ever they heard the cry of murder ;or eolicitatioes
for assistance. It Ras a crime in this country to hate
suffered the annihilation of Poland, and to pass over the
wrongs of Hungary unheeded would be a similar offence.
In every point of view—religious, politic, paci6o, gene-
rous, or just, Lord Palmerston had acted rightly; and
it was the duty of the meeting to strengthen his hands.
The cruelties shown to the wives and female frienis of
the Hungarian soldiers bad no parallel in history. They
were unprecedented in enormity, and could not be too
severely denounced. Savnge as were the wars carried
on letween the white and lea roses in England, and
which terminated on Bosworth field, when a Welshman,
a Tudor, defeated the last Norman murderer of the
Plantagenet race, those cruelties had, with few excep-
tions, been confined to males and to adults; and even in
the reign of the libidinous Charles, will his ferocious
toad-,sting Jeffreys, the form of woman had been held
inviolate, in Lady Rachael Russell—though found in
an overt act of political offence—the scoundrel finger,
the felon whip,did not invade the sanctity of her person.
But in the ease of the Hungarian magnates the flower of
the women of the Magyar race had been most brutally
and wickedly outraged, without any other offence on
their part than that of being the wives, the sisters, or
the daughters, of brave soldiers and of patriotic men.
The Rev. Mr. LEWIS, having been mad- upon by the
Chairman to second the resolution, delivered an eloquent
address in Welsh, of which the following is an outline:
—ln these days, when peace and war have become ob-
jects of great public attention, and when efforts are made
t r bring the nations of the earth to put an end to their
controversies in a tanner less expensive and less
destructive than that of shedding blood, it might
be to some a matter of surprise that a meeting
was he'd to sympathise with a nation which has
been lately engaged in that practice. To this we
reply, that humanity has but two ways to defend itself
against oppression. The first and best is to make appeals
to reason and conscience. No other way could be jus-
tified in this country, whore we have a free press, and a
free platform, and where the doors of legislation are
thrown open to our complaii t 3 and petitions. The Hun-
garians were in a very different condition. To suffer what
was imposed upon them would have been inhuman. To
make appeals to reason and consciences was vain. They
were driven to employ against their enemies the means
which their enemies employed against them. The nature
of this meeting is mortit3ing to the spirit of war. One
nation holding meetings to sympathise with another—
the idea is generous. That narrow-minded patriotism
which made men enemies to every country except their
own is being extinguished. A greater idea prevails,
that is, philanthophy. Men are taught to feel
and act as citizens of the world, and to view all
nations as one fraternity. When this principle pervades
mankind in general, " wars and rumours of wars" shall
cease, " and they shall beat
*their swords into plough-
shares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nations
shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they
It am war any more." We have not come tgoether this
evening to countenance sedition. We all agree that
government is a Divine ordinance, and essential to the
safety of persons and property. Still, when that which
was originally intended to secure unto men the enjoy-
ment of their rights, is employed as a means to deprive
them of those right, is it a matter of surprise that men
whose minds are too great to exiet in bondage, make
use of any means to obtain those privileges which
are essential to 'their happiness, and constitute their
birthright as men and citizens? And if a Govern-
ment ever arrived at that degree of despotic. tyrannyio

(The speaker rat down amidst a renewal of the plaudits
with which his observations had at intervals been deser-
vedly greeted.)
The following lines, which had been composed for a e
occasion by Mr. Morris Davies, cfGarth, were here read
by Mr. Phillips, and directed by the chairman to be sung
by the choir of the chapel:—

Dr. 0. 0. ROBERTS, in moving the next resolution,
spoke in Welsh, and observed that he had never a tended
any public meeting at which he was more gratified in
having the privilege of moving a resolution than the
present. He was truly gratified to find the religious
common people of Wales beginning to act as if they
found that they had civil as well as religious duties to
perform. He would assure the meeting that in expressing
sympathy with the cruelly oppressed people of Hungary,
they were only advocating the natural rights of the uni-
versal family of man. The spirit of despotism was
abroad, fend what was now being enacted in Hungary
might ere long be enacted in Great Britain. Their
turn might come next The spirit of Jesuitism
was abroad; and the enemies of civil and
religious liberty were actively alive in all
parts of the globe. It was entirely acscribable to the
overpowering influence of public opinion, that such
scenes as disgraced England in the reigns of Henry
the Eighth, of Edward the Sixth, of Queen Mary, of
Elizabeth, of Charles the First, and of Charles the
Second, were not exhibited in the present day. ,It
was to the services of the public press that they were
entirely indebted that such oppressive cruelties were
not allowed to degrade our own times. There were
ample proofs that it was not the will, but the dread of
those Execrations, which an exposure through the public
press would inevitably entail on the perpetrators.
that kept down and. rendered innocuous the demon of
persecution. If it dared, the spirit of intolerance,
which two centuries ago had caused Prynne to be
branded and mutilated, and imprisoned in Carnarvon
Castle as a Nonconformist, wus as ready and as willing
as ever to enthral the mind of irate Look at the case
of poor William Parry, who had allowed the Calvinis-
tic Methodists to hold their last association at Bangor
in a field that he rented! Where was he now? Why,
he had been forced to leave the land of his birth, and ha
is now enjoying tie privileges of a freeman in America.
Ho knew that there was a spirit abroad which, unless
checkel, would prove utterly destructive to popular in-
dustry us well as to public liberty. He felt assured that
there were many of the individuals he was addressing
who had seen the back of a poor child of tender years
that had been cruelly flogged last week at the Union
Workhouse because it showed the feelings of nature by
daring to cry at being forcibly, and he would unhesi-
tatingly state, illegally, separated from its mother. Did
they suppose that such enormities could be perpetrated,
sanctioned, or approved by parties who, if unrestricted
by public opinion, would not hesitate at enacting such
scenes of cruelty as the poor Hungarians had expe-
rienced? Unquestionably not. The wily machinations
of the enemies of human freedom in all countries was to set
sect against sect, and the professors ( f ore religious creed
against those who professed a different creed. And they
did this, not from any veneration for cue c:eed more than
another, but as was fir centuries the (Ass in Ireland, for
;be purpose of causing distrust and exciting sectarian
bigotry among those who, was xe'igion allowed to re
main what it ought to be, purely a matter between man
and his Creator, would be found zealously uniting in
upholding all measures that would tend to enlightrn the
public mind and to ameliorate the physical condition of
the human race throughout the world. Religious free-
dom was fully guaranteed to reasons of all creeds in
Hungary, where the Protestant religion generally pre-
vailed, whilst in Cretin the most bigotted intolerance
ruled supreme, and fur the sake of exciting the
Croatians against the Hungarian people, one of the
Austrian journals published that which he knew to
be a vile falsehoed, and used the following expres-
sions in reference is the struggle if the Hungarian
people This is a Protestant rebel:ion ; it vvi:l
never be put down till the Protestints are put down.
Till the end cf the war it will be necessary to
keep under the strict surveiilance cf the police every
Protestant clergyman and every Protestant prcfessor."
England had never been so disgraced, nor had the
English character been ever so tarnished, as it had lean
by the conduct of Lord J. Russell iu adopting and ap-
proving of the acts of More O'Ferrell, in refusing to
allow the rights of hospitality to the Italian refugees
who had been nobly struggling for the rights of the
human lace in the city of Rome. The blush of shame
came to his face when he thought that a Minister of
England's Queen had sanctioned the act of the Governor
Of Malta in refusing the rights of hospitality, and as far
as he was concerned, dooming to starvation, a watery
grave, or to the tender mercies of the butcher of Naples
or his allies, some scores of generous, high-minded men
who had been nobly struggling fur the liberty of man.
The Governor ought to be immortalised and re-named as
More Infernal. During the performance of the cert.-
money his Satannic Majesty and Lord John Russell could
with great propriety discharge the duties of joint
sponsors. No honest Englishman, no, not even
Lord Castlereagh, would have sanctioned an act
so degrading to the English character as Lord John
Russell, the present Prime Minister of England had
done ; and he much questioned whether Sir Hudson
Lowe would have acted as the Governor of Malta had
done. He considered the present Administration, since
in (True, to have belied all the professions which they
made whilst in Opposition, and to have falsified all the
pretences under which they sneaked into office. He
considered that such meetings as the one they were now
holding had become indispensably necessary for the
maintenance of the national character. It was
only to Lord Palmerston's true British feelings the
country was indebted for not having been reduced to
such an abject state of political vassalage as would
have caused every freeman to point the finger of scorn
at thew. Whatever good there existed in the present
Administration was difficult of discovery. It required
very hard pressing to get any good out ef them. Every
individual in the meeting should recollect that he
had political duties to discharge, and which neither all
nor any one were justified in se:ling for a mess of
pottage from the hands of any great men. In the
United Kingdom, the acts of the administration were
those of the Teeple. If the people, who had the elective
franchise, did fearlessly and honestly discharge their
duties at election time, the mansgemeut of public affairs
would be very different from what they were, or what
they had been. He told them distinctly that if they
compromised the trust reposed in them on behalf of
those who had not the elective franchise, that they would
be as_ morally guilty of every unjust, or bloody deed
committed by those in ministerial authority, as if they
had individually or collectively been the party or parties
directly guilty of the deed. He most sincerely congra-
tulated the meeting upon seeing such individuals as those
who then surrounded him taking an active part in ad-
vocating the civil rights of the whole family of man.
After reminding the meeting that union was strength,
and that knowledge was power, he concluded by moving
Co resolution following:—
"3. That this meeting cheplyregrets to find that a sec-
tion of the public press in tLe United Kingdom should
have prostituted itself; by taking service to defend the
cruel, inhuman oppressors of the Hungarian nation ;
and tenders its warmest and most cordial thanks to the
conductors of those journals, metropol.tan and previa-
c'ss', who have exercised their privileges as freemen, and
manfully a Ivocated o inherent rights f all the human
race, by generously supporting the sacred cause of the
oppressed people of Hungary.'

Mr. Luin, on being requested by the Chairman, came
forward and said—l beg to second tl e resolution ; and,
doubtless, when I do so, I shall at the tame time be ut-
tering the sertiments of all that are present. Wo
have already heard so much of the relative positions of
Austria and Hungsry—their political obligations to-
wards each other, and that Austria on her part first
violated those obitgations, and was, therefore, the ori-
ginator and the cause of the awful war and bloodshed
of which Hungary has lately been the scene, that ad-
ducing any more proof or argument on these points
would be altogether unnecQssary. The universal opinion
of this meeting doubtless is, that the very first move-
ment in this barbarous direction was altogether unjus-
tifiable on the part of Austria, and that she ought not
in any way to have interfered with the rights and literacy
of the Hungarians; especially considering that thos.e
rights and liberties were not only hereditary

who loves liberty and peace. The heartrending and
lamentable scenes lately enacted in Hungary—the brutal
and barbarous treatment evinced towards the people—
and the cool and savage acts of revenge committed from
time to time upon those noble and patriotic Hungarians
—men of whom the world may justly boast—must ever
remain a LIU, yea! the fitilest blot ever recorded
on history's pace, upon the character of those Austrian
monsters, from generation to generation. Their
hitherto unparalleled conduct in perpetrating such gross
atrocities and cruelties upon a beaten foe, an enemy
already driven to CeTair, and crushed as it were in the
general struggle, must continue, to the end of time, a
lasting monument of a masterpiece of human revenge
and cruelty. Ia this they must stand alonP, un-
equalled even by the most barbarous and uncivilized
nations. Living as we do in a Christian country, and
professing to have hearts to feel and sympathise in the
misfortune and miseries of our fellow-men,. we cannot
do less than acknowledge with grateful feeling the
efforts of all those journalists who have boldly entered
the field to advocate the claims cf the Hungarians, by
introducing to our notice, from time to time, accounts
of those detegable deeds of cruelty and revenge,
whereby our feelings et last were touched, and our
sympathies aroused from their dormant state, t) con-
demn the savage conduct of the enemy—to pour out the
genuine feelings of our hearts in a sympathising stream
before the world, on behalf of the oppressed, helpless,
and unfortunate people of Hungary; and thus do all in
