      BEAUTIES OF BYRON . HO . XII . "ras siEGB op coaisia . " We close our notice of this poem with the follow ing extracts : —

      THE BESIEGERS . On dun ( Stharoa ' s ridge appears The gleam of twice tetrthousandspoars ; And downward to the Isthmian plain , From shore to shore of either main , The tent is pitched , the crescent shines Along the Moslem ' s leaguering lines ; And the dusk Spain ' s bands advance Beneath each bearded pacha's glance ; And far aud wide as eye can reach The turban'd cohorts tbromj the beach ; And there the Arab ' s camel kneels ,

      And there his steed the Tartar wheels ; The Turcoman hath left his herd The sabre round his loins to gird ; And there the volleying thunders pour . Till waves grow smoother to the roar . The trench is dug , the cannon ' s breath Wings the far hissing globe of death ; Fast whirl the fragments from the watt , Which crumbles with the ponderous ball And from that waU the foe replies , O ' er dusky plain and smoky skies , TRth fires that answer fast and weU , The summons of the InfideL

      TBS nOEEOSS OF WAB . And he saw the lean dogs beneath the wall Hold o ' er the dead their carnival , Gorging and growling o ' er carcases and limb ; They were too busy to bark at him ! from a . Tartar's skull they had stripped the flesh , As ye peel the Sg when its fruit is fresh ; And their white tasks crunched o ' er the whiter skull , As it slipped through their jaws , when their edge grew dull , As they lazily mumbled the bones of the dead . When they scarce could rise from the spot where they fed ; So well had they broken a lingering fast

      With those who had fallen for that sight ' s repast . And Alp knew , by the turbans that rolVd on the sand . The foremost of these were the best of his band ; Crimson ' and green were the shawls of their near , And each scalp had a single long tuft of hair , All the rest were shaven and bare . The scalps were in the wild dog ' s maw , IThe hair was tangled round bis jaw ; 3 Jut close by the shore , ou the edge of the gulf , Ifcere sat a vulture flapping a wolf , ^ Wk » had stolen from the hills , hut kept away , - ficared by the dogs , from the human prey ; Sot he seized on his share of a steed that lay , . Pick's by the birds , on the sands of the bay .

      THE ASSACtT . As the wolves , that headlong go Oa the stately buffalo , Though with fiery eyes , and angry roar , And hoofs that stamp , and horns that gore , He tramples on earth , or tosses on high The foremost , who rush on his strength but to die Inns against the wall they went . Thus the first were backward bent ; Many a bosom , sheathed in brass . StrewM th « earth like broken glass , Shivera by the shot , that tore The ground whereon they moved no more ; Even as they fell , in files they lay , lake the mower ' s grass at the close of day . When his work is done on the levell'd plain ; Such was the fall of the foremost slain .

      As the spring tides , with heavy plash , From the clins invading dajh Sage fragments , sapp'd by the ceaseless flotr , Till white and thundering dowu they go . Like the avalanche ' s snow-On the Alpine vales below ; Thus at length , outbreathed and worn , Corinth ' s sons were downward borne By the long and oft renewM Charge of the Moslem multitude . In firmness they stood , and in masses they fell , Heap'd by the host of the infideL From the point of encountering blades to the hilt

      Sabres and swords with blood were gilt ; But the rampart is won , and the spoil begun , And all but the after carnage done . Shriller shrieks now mingling come From within the plunder's dome : Bark to the haste of flying feet , That splash in the blood of the slippery street ; But here and there , where ' vantage ground Against the foe may still he found , Desperate groups , of twelve or ten , Make a pause , and turn again—With banded backs against the wall , Fiercely stand , or fighting fall .

      Tar FALL OF COEI . VTH . So near they came , the nearest stretcb - 'd To grasp the spoil he almost reachM When old Minotti ' s band Touch'd with the torch the train—TU fired 1 Spire , vaults , the shrine , the spoil , the slain , The turban'd victors , the Christian band , All that of living or dead remain , Hmi'd on high with the shiver'd fane , In one wild roar expired 1 Theshatter'd town—the walls thrown down—The wave a moment backward bent—The hills that shake , although unrent , As if an earthquake pass'd The thousand shapeless things all driven Iu cloud and flame " athwart the heaven , Bv that tremendous

      blast—Proclahn'd the desperate conflict o ee On that too long afdictea shore . All the living things that heard The deadly earth-shock disappeared : The wild birds flew ; the wild dogs fled , And howling left the unburied dead . The wolves yeli'd on the cavera'd hill Where echo roll'd in thunder still ; The jackal ' s troop , in gather'd cry , Bafi from afar complaiuingly , With a mix'd and mournful sound , lake crying babe , and beaten hound : With sudden wing , and ruffled breast , ¦ The eagle left his rocky nest , And mounted nearer to the sun . The clouds beneath him seem'd so dun ; Their smoke assail'd his startled beak . And made bin . ' higher soar and shriek-Thus was Corinth lost and won .

Now , this bomb well suppose to be the first sugar-plum of war . .. .

      The mayor jumps out of bed , thinking of his moneybox , hw plate , his bonds , his pipe of port , and his wife and daughters . The lad y mayoress screams like-no , leant think of nothing stronger—like a woman 1 And then her five daughters , all in their bed-gowns and curlnapere , rushing in , scream , too , to show the tenderness and the weakness of their womanhood , ffoir , Ebeaezw , arn ' t all these creaturespretty hypocrites 1 I mean what I say—and I'll prove it . Bfes * their little satisfied souls ! how they do love the military , 11 be sure 1 What a beautiful thing is a review to ' em—isn't it ! And how they'll smile upon cannonballs as if they were things to eat—and how they'll wink their precious eyes in the breast-plates of the dear officers , more than if they stared in their own

      looking-glassee . ' And then , in their little puffed-up hearts , they think no more of a man than of a barn-door fowl , if he isn ' t a soldier . But only put a feather in his capred cloth and gold lace on his body—roll him tight round with a sash ( the babe of glory . ' )—aad let a long sword dangle by his side—and to woman ' s heart , what a dear peacock the sweet fellow is ! She could follow him all over the world ; his feathers are so fine , and he does strut so beautifully ! And iu this way , Ebenezer , do women again and again make themselves parties to war and wickedness ! In their hearts , to be sure , they don't mean it . They'll faint , some of 'em , to see a cut finger ; but then a review only ehows the frippery of war—with out the blood . The music ' s biautiful , and there ' s no call then for lint .

      Well , the mayor , and his wife and daughters , are all embracing one another in the bed-room , when bang comes another shell , and Mom away Maria and Louisa ( young pretty things , that never did harm to anybody ) into the next world . Bang—bang—fall the shells ! Crash sots the house , and the mayor and his wife , and three daughters , scramble down stairs , and hide in the cellar ! Kow , Mr . Mayor , was a great man for war , and all its glory . Yes ! when full of his best port , he would give his favourite toast—' . ' A speedy war and soon !'' And wherefore ! The purple-faced old ass knew nothing of war but its outside finery . The regimental band , the fifes and drums , made him feel as strong as Sampson—but then he'd never had bomb-shells drop through his house , and his helpless children slaughtered under his eyes .

      How very differently does he now—squatted low , like a toadstool iu his cellar—think of war ! How does ho groan , and shake , and in lnVmisery tear his grey hair , as he hears the hell of war roaring about him—and listens to the yells and shoots of men , like devils escaped from the burning pit , to work destruction ! And now—bang —bang—his house is burst open—half the regiment of the Pennsylvania riflee flock in—Pillage , Pilings is the cry—they tear from room to room—they descend into the cellar— they etave in pipes and hogsheads—ibey seize the mayor's three daughters—and ( could he ever have thought It ?) now is he grateful that Maria and Louisa , in sudden death , met a better fats . W < % r * be poor mayor makes a rush at one 0 / the heron , when his hraias are knocked out by the butt-eud of a musket , and the " glory" continues .

      Let me hear no more of your cock-a-doodle-do-ing about the splendour of war , and the grandeur of the militia . If you want to punish your fellow-creatures , aru ' tyouagroeer and a general dealer , and can ' t you be satisfied ? There ' s short-weight , adulteration , passing off bad money , —fifty ways for jou to delight the devil with ; but don ' t treat him to the morsel of all that he best loveswar—wicked , stupid war ! "We earnestly recommend the entire letter to the " gore-and-glory-mongers . " Its sound sense makes it alone worth the price of the magazine .

      The Family Herald-Pabt Xxxiii. Iondon: G...

      THE FAMILY HERALD-Pabt XXXIII . Iondon : G . Biggs , 421 , Strand . We gladly welcome another Part of this excellent publication , which , as it increases in age , seems to improve in quality , which is more than can be said for many works of far higher pretensions . We have not time ourselves to read romances , but we are acquainted with those who do , and who have assured us that the romance matter contained in the Family Hera . X-1 is so plentiful and so good as to leave them neither time nor inclination to patronise the Circukting library ; they find the purpose of such a library folly Answered by the contents of the Famtlv Herald . As soon as we get a Part of the Herald wefirst read

      all tht * ' Notices to Correspondents , " in which we are sure to find a considerable amount of wit and humour , particularly in the answers to lore-sick ladies , many of whom consult the oracle of this publication . Wc next read all the editorial articles , and never without deriving intellectual pleasure and profit therefrom These articles should be studied by all who aspire to be " thinkers . " A brick from the rubbish of tho ruins of Babylon could scarcely afford a more unsatisfactory specimen of the once mighty city than can any extract we can make room for , give an idea of the writings of the editor ; we will nevertheless extract fiom one of the said articles the following anecdotes of

      KOSTUCOTB AND HOttEMKS . Xorthcote , the painter , was a real boor , and his taste for the beautiful and poetical in form and proportion did not improve the moral character of his mind . He was penurious , Ill-natured , selfish and conceited . He was never in love ; he regarded women as mere wasters of money . This , we are « ure , will enlist all the ladies against him . Still he was noble in his independence . One day the Duke of Clarence , when sitting to him , took hold of his morning gown and said , " tforthcote , you don ' t devote much time te the toilette ! " " Sir , " said Korthcote , " I never allow anj one to take personal liberties with roe ; you are the first who aver presumed to do so , and I beg your Soyal Highness to recollect that I am in mv own house , "

      Ko courtier would have behaved in this manner—it was too spirited for such a gentleman . The Duke made a handsome apology , and used to speak of Xorthcote as a " d d honest fellow . " But whether honesty he one of the attributes of a finished gentleman or not , we must leave to the determination of posterity , or any one else who can settle the point . JTollekens , the sculptor , was also a boor whom art refused to polish , though himself a polisher . It it said of him that he preferred the society of the rude and uncultivated , and used to sing snatches and catches , and mimic the London cries over pints of porter in the public houses . He nas particularly fond of music , but it did not lead him into the society of the elegant ; [ and yet be

      had it in bis power to moveiu the most refined circles . Dr . Johnson , who was a boor himself , was naturally enough partial to him , but to all other educated and polished men he was particularly disagiceable . Tet he was a good soul notwithstanding . Though parsimonious in reference to himself , he was generous to others . To his nurse , who kept his house after his wife ' s death , he would say , " I cannot sleep , I cannot rest . Is there any person Ikuotvwko would be the better for a little money V And he gave away money freely , in large sums , to relieve the distressed and aid tho honest poor . This was one of the sworn duties of the knights of old ; it was the boast aad glory of chivalry to deny itself , that it might relieve the distressed .

      Besides an immense mass of miscellaneous matter , we notice useful aud interesting articles on "The Teeth , " ' * The Opera and the Ballet , " Ac . < fcc . ; and some very good poetry , original and selected . A penny a week laid out in purchasing the Family Ucrald , will be a penny well expended .

      Flieinctoltial. History Of America Prom ...

      fliEincTOltiAl . HISTORY OF AMERICA PROM ITS DISCOVERY BY TUB NORTHMEN , TO THE PRESENT TIME . By Jons Fkost , A . M . —London : Willoughby and Co ., 80 , Aldersgate-street . A history of America for " the people , " is a desideratum which , if well executed , cannot be too highly extolled . England claims the parentage of the great Republic , which already competes with the oldest and mightiest ef European states , and which Republic can hardly fail to advance iu power and greatness until the whole continent will acknowledge

      her laws , or at least bow to her influence . As Englislnucfl , we shall always remember that the Amcrioaus of the United States are our brethren , and that every triumph achieved by them , if achieved in a good cause , we , to some extent , share the glory of . The two nations are united by ties of blood , and the pKst history , present state , and future progress of each must be interesting to the other . The history before us will , if we mistake not , eiuBrace not merely that of the United States , but of the entire continent . We have looked through the first part of this work , and , so far as we hare seen it , must award to it oursincere approbation .

      In saying this we must be allowed also to say that we regret twothingSrf-first . ^ e -watotcC-an ^ introi ductory chapter , giving thjfattthfa ^ ftjdeas ^ iogether with a condensation of the-Tdeasflf'Sher writers on the aubjectof the origin of ? th « American' Indians , aiicl their history during the ages preceding the discovery « f the continent both by Columbus , and by the Northmen . It mar be said that such an investigation must b » purely speculative , whereas history ahouhl be a record of facts . Of course " facts " should form the main portion of all histories , but mere " facts" without theory , however speculative ,

      is but dry reading , and will scarcely make thinkers . Poetry , theory , speculation , have made more deep thinkers than all the records of mere "facts , " however trustworthy . Second , we regret that the exploits of Columbus are not told at greater length . Tho barbarous doings of those military ruffians Corks and Phakko , and the other less distinguished though equally cruel and avaricious Christian cut-throats , we object not to see condensed into any reasonable compass ; but Colwibl-s was a man of a different stamp ; one of the few " great" names really worthy of immortality . Had the rest of the discoverers ol

      America heen actuated by his noble and p hilan thropic 1 spirit , how mwen of blood and tejtwshed would never have flowed ; how much of 8 UnVi » B ° wl u have been spared to thu new world and 0 * Jnfamy to the old ! On the other hand , we are glad to see justice , *»» m this work to the brave Northmen , who undou . ^ edly first drscoverod the American continent . A 1 . people know that Columbus discovered America , " but it is only & ejgp who know that there had been discoverers , aml ] S » colonists , - s 6 raecenturies before the time of the great Columbus . The honour of making the Western continent effectively known unquestionably belongs to Columbus . "From his giory as the great discoverer , it would be unjust in the slightest degree to detract . " But the claim te a prior discovery , urged in favour of the Northmen , and never relinquished by the Icelandic scholars , has recently been rerived by the Royal Society of Antiquaries at Copenhagen , and supported by such a

      weight of testimony , as to leave no reasonable doubt that the first uucovereis were our Scandinavian brothers of Norway , Iceland , & c . It was not till the 3 rd of August , 1492 , that the expedition under Columbus set sail from the shores of Spain ; but there is good reason to believe that as far back as the vear 986 , America was discovered b y Bursk , the ice Under . Other discoverers followed in his track , and a colony of Icelanders and Norwegians was established on the American coast . It is , indeed , capable of proof , that Professor Func Maohussks , a native of Iceland , now resident at Copenhagen , one of the most distinguished Icelandic scholars of the day , and the immortal sculptor Thorwaldbbn , recently deceased , are descended from one of the most celebrated of the brave adventurers who first explored at least a portion of the American continent . The first chapter of this work details these discoveries , and will be found highly interesting .

      This work is published in weekly penny numbers , and sixpenny parts . It is profusely embellished with highly finished and beautiful engravings , and is just such a work as we can most heartily recommend to our readers .

      Annual Banquet Of The German Democratic ...

      ANNUAL BANQUET OF THE GERMAN DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY FOR THE EDUCATION OF THE WORKING CLASSES . [ DIE DEUTSCHE BIL-DUffGs ' . GESEI . I . SCHAFT Ft / B ARBEITER . J There exists in London a society which deserves to be bitter known to the readers of the Northern Star than hitherto it has been . The name of the society is given above ; ite origin will be found described in the speech of the chairman ; enough that wc here state that it dates the commencement of its existence so far back as the 7 th of February , IM ) . It was commenced by a very few working men , in the midst of most disheartening obstacles , chiefly the result oi the failure of the "national Germanic movement , " oftheycars 1830-1-2-34 . Theignorance of the great mass of the peop le had done more to ruin the " national Germanic movement , " than even the force

      and terrorism directed against it by the German despots ; hence the founders of the new society argued that if they would command success they must first take steps to illumine the minds of the working men , and thus render th ; m independent of chiefs , and indestructible to the assaults of tyrants . Dismay , doubt , and apathy pervaded the broken ranks of the Germanic emigration , at tho period that this society commenced ; but , thanks to the energy and unconquerable perseverance of its founders , aided by the equally efficient teal of each new member , the society has grown from the acorn to tho young oak , not yet at its maturity , but continually growing . A large number of the German working men residing in London are now members of this society . The

      usual meetings of the body are holden at the Red Lion , Great Windmill-street , the large room of which is , however , far too small for the nteetings of the members . The society has a reading room , supplied with ten newspapers , German , French , and English ; a library , containing five hundred rolsmes , maps , globes , and other scientific apparatus , musical instruments , & x . Lectures on astronomy , history , geography , & a ., & c , are regularly delivered . Classes exist for the instruction of the members in singing , - drawing , languages , 4 c . Weekly meetings are holden for the diwussion of political and social principles . We may also add , that every alternate Sunday evening , at six o ' clock , a tow of tho members , together with a few English , French , and othei

      democrats , meet for the purpose of conversing on political subjects , and mutual information concerning the progress of their principles in the several countries of which tliey are natives . The great principle of the society is CoivsiusisM ; it is almost needless to add that this necessarily includes all that the English people understand by "tho ultra-Democratic principle . " The sixth anniversary of the society was the 7 th instant , but that falling on a day inconvenient for any public festival , the supper was deferred until the 9 th—Monday last . The festival took place in the spacious and beautiful hall of the White Conduit House , one of the finest rooms in London . At the head of the room an illuminated transparency was erected , exhibiting a figure of Justice standing erect on " the globe ; " beneath was the following inscription in German , French , aud English - . —

      "Alle Menschen sind Briider . * ' Tow les homines sontfreres . "All men are bretftren . " The namber who sat down to supper was about 250 persons , including a number of the fair sex . Ot course the great majority were Germans ; next to these the French , were most numerous ; several Englishmen and Englishwomen were present , and natives of Poland , Switzerland , Spain , Hungary , Denmark , Sweden , Belgium , Norway , Russia , and Turkey . We should not omit to mention that the singers ot

      the society , numbering about thirty in all , greatly added to the harmony and pleasure of the evening by their admirable singing of the beautiful Germaii liberty songs . With the exception of being somewhat late served , the supper was admirably got up , aud the good order and arrangement maintained throughout the evening was worthy of all praise . The chair was ably tilled by Charles Schappurfonc of the founders of the society ) , supported on hisrighi by Julian Harney , aud on his left by Colonel Oborski After the cloth was removed ,

      The CiuiRiux gave , in German , French , and English— - "The Soverign People , the only source of legitimate power . " Drank with three times three . Song— " Welcome to the friends of all nations . " Tho Chairman then addressed the meeting in three speeches , German , French , and English , which were each enthusiastically applauded . The following is an outline of his address in English : —Friends , brothers , and sisters of all nations , 1 thank you for assisting the German Society at this , their sixth anniversary . By such meetings as this we shall iearu to knoweach other , and by regarding each other as brethren , we shall be the better able to improve our condition , and establish the rights of men in all nations . ( Cheers . ) When in 1 S 30 the nations awoke

      from their long slumber , the Germans also awoke . They remembered the promises made by perjured kings , when iu the day of tribulation they appealed to the people to release them from the iron yoke of Napoleon . They remembered that these promises had never been fulfilled , hut that the royal traitors , once relieved from French domination , had rewarded the people who had fought and bled for them , not with liberty , but with tyranny aud proscription . ( Ilear , hear . ) Remembering these things , great excitement was the consequence , and several little revolutions actually did take place in Brunswick , CasscI , and other places , and noiue German princes ( not the worst of them ) were sent packing . ( Cl'eers . There then commvnoed the Germanic national

      movement . We were all , Prussians , Saxons , Bavarians , Ikunswickers , & c , to form one grand nation . Public meetings were hold , fine speeches made , a national colour was adopted , red , black , and ( jold , and WC had ilags , ribbons , and . even pipea red , black , and gold . There was great excitement for a time , but at last the governments commenced persecuting the loaders—numbers were thrown into prison , others forced into exile , and others frightened from theiis principles . Universal proscription was now the order of the day ; and while numbers left their country , the masses left behind , deprived of their chiefs , and having but a very limited knowledge oi their rights and duties , fell into despair and apathy . The emigrants again rallied round the " red , black ,

      and gold , " but they were not long permitted to do so . Switzerland was menaced , and compelled tu refuse shelter to the emigrants . Louis Philippe readily seconded the wishes uf the German despots , > nd even Belgium was no longer a . refuge for the exiles . Under these circumstances tbo German nationality '' movement entirely crumbled away . Nevertheless , the good cause was not wholly abandoned . The unswerving friends of liberty saw that the grand cause of their former , failures had been the want of education amongst the working classes . They therefore setabout'forming societies to instruct the working men . Etan iu countries where political societies were not allowed , these societies were organised under the form of waging clubs . Thus following the spirit of the times , the attempt was made in 1810 to form tho present society , and the attempt has been crowned with success . We long had te struggle with disheartening difficulties , but these

      had been surmounted . ( Cheers ) The chairman then described the present strength and resources of the society as noticed above . Wiser tlu-ough the lessons of experience , the projectors of the present society determined to make intelligence the basis of their movement , and to have no chi efs but principles . ( Cheers . ) Our great chief— kc have no other—is universal brotherhood . ( Great cheering . ) Men of all countries are made welcome to our society . ^ No man is asked whether he is a German , Englishman , Frenchman , or Russian ; but simply " are you an honest man V ( Great applause . ) I will conclude by wishing that the age may speedily arrive wb . cn there will be for all men but one country-v-the earth ; but one family—mankind ; and but oi > c religion—honesty , aad tiie worship ol truth .

X lns . aiico . in the united kingdom of Great Britain , there are about twenty-ei ght- millions of ' peo : pie—in that number there are not a million ef landholders ! not even half a million . ' not evena quarter' . In France , in thirty-five millions of people , " there are at-least six or seven millions of landholders :

      but that number decreases every day . Worse still is the state of t / wuany , where in many provinces the peasantry are }\" -t sold with the land . In Russia the number of slaves are far greater than the free men . The earth was giv . " *» man for his habitation ; and we see thousands oi thousands that have no home , no pillow for their . ^ ead to rest upon . Christ was right when he said ; '< " The birds of the air have nests , the foxes . have . holes , ? , nd the son of man hath no place te lay his l ' lead . " A noor dogsleeps bv a bank , or on the thresh old of a palace , butoneo f those thousands of wretche d people , who should have the audacity to lay hisachin ^ head in the same place , would lie dragged to prison by the police of the aristocracy : and those very' poor workmen who

      narmy gam enough to support their children , ; find themselves obliged to give from their pitiable salary a part to pay a rapacious landlord for a miserable hole tora lodging . Are they better treated as regards their food ? No!—no ! their existence is still more deplorable . We havescenthem in England fi jhtingfor putrid meat and stinking bones , which dogs refused . Tho Irish population , the inhabitants of Flanders , of several districts in France , German / , Sweden , 4 c , only exist on water and potatoes , . ^ nd to-day they have not even this deplorable food . Wc hear fromtrom all parts cries of despair ; > ve hear of suicides of people , who drown , hang , and shoot themselves . " Is it our fault , " demand tin . * partisans of this system , "if there has been famiue ?" Notwithstanding the famine , the earth has produced enough to feed her children , tor in all the provinces the shops swarm with eatables , but the poor oeople

      have not money , so they starve . " Is it our fault ?" say our adversaria . Yes , it is your fault!—for it is the fault of the present social system , of which you are the champions . ( Cheors . ) Are we , then , culpable , in , trying to destroy this frightful social order ? We want to establish another , founded on the basis of equality , liberty , and fraternity . This new system will destroy those calamities which overwhelm the people , for it will give them back the earth , whioh is of right theirs . ( Great cheering . ) But by what means shall we accomplish this great work of humanity ? Is it by revolutionary massacres ? No , noa thousand times no ! We will arrive ai our end by instructing men - , by teaching to the mass their rights , to individuals their duties . ( Applause . ) When this knowledge has descended to the lowest ranks of society , tho revolution will be accoropliihed , and the happiness of humanity complete . ( Great cheering . )

      The CiuiRMAXsaid , I have next to introditco an English friend , our brother Julian Harney . ( Applause . ) G . Jems Hjrjey delivered a somewhat lengthy address , of which the following is an outline ;—Sister and Brother Democrats , I ar » happy in haviflg the privilege of assisting at this meeting . I have heard with much pleasure the constitution and objects of your society , as explained by thoichairman . Knowledgeisthegreatwantofthemassesv Jgnoraneo , if not the original sin , was certainly the original curse ; for what but the ignorance of the many has enabled the few to tyrannise over them ? ( Chews . ) Man is like the _ horse , he does not know his own strength , otherwise he wohW notsubmitto be a slave . ( Applause . ) No doubt , foree has had much te do with

      the subjection of mankind to slavery , but fraud has had still more , and but fortSteignorance of themany , thecunning fewcould not have succeeded . ( Cheers . ) l ' ou will all have observed thai every horse drawing a waggon , cart , coach , or other carriage , is furniohed with two pieces of leather , stuck behind his eyes-, »» d overshadowing them . What these are called ! dbo't know ; but I call them " blinder * . " ( Laughter . ) ' 1 have heard it said , that these "blinders" are necessary to prevent the horse looking back and seeing the heavy load he is tied to , situs blinding In ' an to his slavery , ( Cheera . ) Just so it is with man . Every poor , ignorant , willing slave has Ids two "blinders ; " these "blinders" ar & priestcraft and national prejudice . ( Great cheering . ) But for these inventions of the fraudulent knaves , who have aided

      the tyrants of the sword in their conquests over human rights , men would never have been brought to that willing or hopeless submission te tyranny which yet too extensively exists . Priestcraft has btfen employed to frighten men out of their reason , and national prejudices to make them hate each other . ( Applause . ) When men have grown restive under thejoke of oppression , the priest has always stepped in , and ordered submission , asserting that it was the will of the gods that the few should rule the many , and the many suffer in this life , as a necessary nrobatiou , to lit them for a promised happiness in a life to como ; threatening them with the vengeance of heaven if they disobeyed their ruler * , for the powers that he are ordained of God . ( Laughter aud cheers . ) Our ijreat poet , Pope , has well said of priestcraft , it

      " Gods of conquerors , slaves of subjects made !" ( Applause . ) Triesteraft has also set men against each other , and made them enemies when they . should have been brethren . The bloodiest wars , the ihc most fiendish persecutions , the most atrocious crimes have been enacted in the name of religion . But superstition was not sufficient to make men enemies to each other , as sometimes it happened that neighbouring states were of the same faith , therefore national prejudice was encouraged and fostered , and hence Spaniards and Portuguese , though living on one piece of land , and of tho same religion , had hated each other—all the worse , too , it would seem because , like rooks and crow . * , they were ukiselv related . Again , - Englishmen aud Frenchmen

      have been taught to regard each other . as "natural encmic * . " Fifty years ago it was the belief of every loyal Englishman that Frenchmen lived on frogs and wore euly wooden shoes , and that such people were only fit te he hated and slaughtered . It was one of the maxims of Nelson , taught by him to the men under his command , to " hate a Frenchman as you would the devil . " These absurdities have died out in England , 1 trust , never to have a resurrection . ( Chews . ) John Bull has been also considerably prejudiced against our chairman ' s countrymen , and 1 think he has had some excuse for his prejudice . ( Laughter . ) The English people only know Germany through the needy and stupid kings , princes , queens , aud princesses , who havo imv-ovted themselves

      into this country during the last century and a hall . [ The Ciiairmain : " Why did you not send them back again ? " ] ( Cheers . ) To say nothing of our "lovely Queen , " wo have two unadulterated Germans at present to support—Prince Albert and Queen Adelaide . The one has thirty , the other one hundred thousand pounds yearly . The country that lavishes these sums upon two individuals—as an Englishman , 1 blush to own it—in this same country , there are thousands of agricultural labourers whose wages do not average all the year round more than six shillings a week ; so that before a six-shilJing-a-wcck labourer could earn the sum paid to Prince Albert in one year , he must work iiw > thousand years ; and to earn the sum paid to Q , uccn Adelaide iu one year ,

      he must work between six and * $ vcn thousand years : The sum spent upon this old frump of a queen would give to nearly two thousand families a pound a week every week ill the year . Would it not ho better that two thousand families should have this sum divided among' them , than that it should be im-i .-hc-d on om > individual , to one frautioiuifwhiciislic lias no hftiwst claim ? ( Cheers . ) Ton will not , then , " woudcr at the prejudice of my countrymen towards j ;< ti Germans , seeing that too many of them have not learned to distinguish between the Civilian pwipl .- and (' -er . iuu despot ? .

      Annual Banquet Of The German Democratic ...

      each other , as brethren ? ( Cheers , ) I . am ., convinced thai this fraternal union could be accomplished , if the leaders of pub'ic opinion throughout . Europe wsuld work faithfu iy to their mission . The cause of tht' people in all countricsis the same—the causa of labour " , . enslaved and . plundered labour . I spoke of Queen -Adelaide ' s salary ^ hut we niust remember that she . iVJbut one , and to her salary must be added those , of the" other members of tho monarchy , and taeisywpham ^ of- th e court . Then there are the salaries-paid to the Ministers , to Generals , Admirals , and the Ai * my , —to the useless swarms of govcrnment officials , ' the host of excisemen , ' customs erasers , and others ; -thousands of hard-working bees being . plundered to suormrt these useless drones .

      ( Cheers . ) Then , to sa'v nothing of the enormous cost ot voluntary reli gion / ' such as the building of chapels , the support 0 / thousands of dissenting ministers , teachers , missionaries ; bible , tract , and countless other societies ; tovsay nothing of these , the established church has its income of several millions . But the rotibertes of but political system are scarcely more than as a drop ' in the bucket compared with the robberies of our social system . In the Hrst place , there is the gigantic robbery of the land ; and when we remember that many of our great landholders possess rent-rolls twice or thrice as enormous as Queen Adelaide ' s salary , we way begin to understand how it isthat the tillers of the soil are doomed - to exist on 6 s . a week . ( Cheers . ! Again ,

      the enormous incomes of the great millownois , the fortunes of the merchants , the profits of the shop-. keepers , the fees of the lawyers , all are wrung from the working man ' s toil . ( Cheers . ) The very capitel which the capitalists vaunt the possession of , asserting but tor it labour could not be employed , and the la * bower must stagnate and perish ; what is this capital but the creature of labour , the accumulated proceeds ot labour t ( Chma ) This state of things exists not only in England , but throughout Europe . In each country the tyranny of the few and the slavery ot the many are variously developed , b « t the principle in all is the same . ( Cheers . ) All political changes that have not for their end the correction of these evils , aro but political shams , A so-called republic , in which the rich rule , ov ia which eves rich and poor co-exist , is but " a mockery , a delusion , and a snare . " ( Cheers . ) In all countries the men who

      grow the wheat lire on potatoes , The men who rear the cattle do not taste Mesh food . The men who cultivate the vine have only the dregs of its nobfe juice . Tho men who mftilte the clothing atfe- in rags . The men who build the houses live in hovek The me » who createeveryneccssar ^ vcomfort . andJhiXuryjaresteeped in misery .

Weniay differas to the means , ordiJ & i'entcircuraatancsgmay rends ? different means necessary , but the gr & at end—the veritable emancipation of Hie human rato—must be the one aim and end ofaffi ( Applause . )! I conclude by giving you the sentiment— "Fraternity the means , Freedom , Equality , and General Happiness the end - , may the working classes of nli nations combine in brotherhood for the triumph' of their common cause . " ( Great cheering . ) . ..

      The singers tnen gave thewng of the German workroen , " Always forward * . " LTheremaining speecheswe & ave received ' no report of , we can only , therefore ,- intimate the ssuse of them . ] Henriesh BwEn ( Germa ^ adtkessed the meeting , thanking th * founders of the society for their great exertions in promoting the- welfare and objects ofthe association . He spoke of the grea * progress of the society , and csjicludcd his address by reciting a poem of his own composition , conisosed for the occasion of '

      the meeting . The poem elicited the enthusiast : * applause of all conversant with the German tongue . [ VVc understand the poem will be printed in German , to gratify the wishes of many raembers and friends of the society . ] Colonel Onor . sKi (& f the Democratic section of the PolisS emigration ) then addressed tlwmeeting in the French language . ^ IDs expressed thepleasure he had in attending this aaniversary ; himself and his countrymen would always be happy to- give their dssistamio whenever they couid aid ? the cause of humanity .

      The CiiisiBMAN called for three cheers for She Polish Democrat !* . Three times three were given-, Messrs . ISnKxaud Wuio ^ lkswortu ( Eugjfcsh ) thcn briefly addressed the meeting . Chaulbs ff ^ AENDKR ( German ) then spoke on the necessity of instructing the working-classes-, to freo them from the-prejudiccs of a ; rnisdireetededucation , and thereby sesure their aid in > carrying out tho preecnt movement . ( Applause . )' - — Holm ( Dane ) spoke in > Gorman , expressing Ms happiness a * the progress of union amongst th ?

      working-classes of all nations , lie knew something of his own country , and something of Germany , and , notwithstanding the declamation of national parties in both countries , he could aver that the working men tired nothing for these ancient rivalries—they knew their true interests were only to be promoted by brotherhood , and they were accordingly uniting . — ( Cheers . ) Several songs and pop lar anthems having been Fling , three cheers for the chairman ^ and three for fraternity , closed the proceedings . The hall was then cleared for dancing , which was kept up- with grs * t spirit until an early hour .

      Pnrimk.Ino.\S Im War.—Whatever May Be Th...

      PnriMK . ino . \ s im War . —Whatever may be the result of the present aspect of affairs , the standing army is about to be placed in a most efficient state by the addition of 10 , 000 men , and the militia will be brought into readiness for immediate training on the shortest notice . Tho Ordnance Corps is to be increased betwixt 1 , 100 and 1 . 500 men , one half of that number to form u battalion of the Royal Regiment of Artillery , consisting of eight companies of lioyni Sappers and Miners , commanded by officers of the lloval Eny Sneers . There are at present seven troops of " Royal Horse Artillery , three troops C II , and Itocket troop , at Woolwich ; one troop E at- A ewcastlc , - one troop F , at Leeds ; one troop 1 ) , at Dublin ; and one troop A , at Limerick . Each of six ot tiie troops has four guns , which are to be increased to * ix , with the usual number of gunners in proportion . The Royal Marines are to be increased to the extent of 2 , 500 men , and the land forces of the line regiments 0 , 001 ) men , but whether the latter will be

      added in battalions or additional regiments is not yet made known . Tho increase of the nary will be about 1 , 000 men , hut it is already in a very efficient state , and bteam-v « M > elsof very great power can be manned by a fur Was number of bauds than ships of war . This is a vety great advantage , and a great savins of life during engagements , as ike destruction on board of crowded vessels is far greater in proportion to the number on board , as was recently ehown by the great lees of life on board the French vessels atthc engagement with Rosas in the river l'hte , the number on board being generally about one-third more in French vessels than in English of the same class . A very important addition is about to be made in all large war steamers of the British navy , by the addition of two or more light C-pouuder guns , mounted in every respect in the same manner as the light 6-pounder guns of the Royal Horse Artillery . These guns are to be fitted with men- harness , to be taken on shore when required , and moved from one place to another , with or without the aid of horses . —Times .

      Tub Ship Toby . —It is a curious fact with respect to this vessel , which has excited so much notice and interest in tho public mind , that tho crest or arms of the owiur are the arm and shoulder of a man holding iu his hand a bloody spear or javelin , with which he is apparently about to strike tm object , and that this was actually painted mi the stern of the vessel . It was very generally noticed wiiiist she was lying in the Dock-basin . and ' the circumstance is worthy of remarlt , simply because its appearance was significant , in conscqucnccn !
