to Turkey Between your European and Asiatic dominions rest the fleets of Europe and not a man shall pom from Eorops to Asia to maintain your iniquitous ukl I believe that if that had been done we

discretion is the better port of I believe that to bo exceedingly true if you will only take it in this conjunction that valour is often the better part of discretion and that it ia by a just nee and a jnst tempe ing of those two qualities that the resist angth of a country is to be rtaiaed (He ar hear) There is no ue in being discreet if you are not valiant and no use in being valiant if you are

Five Hundred waited upon Mr Gladstone at the offices of the Liberal Begiatration Association Parliament-street and conveyed to the right hon gentleman a copy of a resolution paseed by the Five nominating him aa cm of the Liberal indidates for Greenwich in case of a ashing him to slur his intention as announced in his letter of retiring from the representation of the borough at the next general election Mr Jolly president of the aseociotion inteo-dneed the deputation and expressed the regret of A constituency at the prospect of losing the services of the richt hon eentleman Dr BENNKTT and the Rev Mr TI8SEN a formist minister referred respectively to the political and religious Liberalism of the borough Mr Davis Lieutenant Kavanagh and Mr George Lidgett having also spoken Mr GLADSTONE who was received with cheers I regard this meeting a I may say a fitting 1 and a memorable addition to the really circumstances under which the stituency of Greenwich were pleased originally to choose me for their representative and under which they bare with infinite patience consented to forego much that they would have been justified in exacting under ordinary circumstances (Cries of

yon 1 was not influenced in whole or in part not in the slightest degree bv any apprehension aa to the result (Cheers) I know the circumstances of the last election were peculiar but I do believe there is not a constituency in the entire country from Berwick to the Lands End which ia miuu entitled to the name and honours of Liberal constituency than Greenwich (Cheers) Aud if it was end I hod really forgotten that it had been made the subject of a sarcasm bvthe Minister of I doubt whether the Minister of ar would be disposed to repeat the sareaam when he considers that it is the borough from which he derives tho warlike stores he is now manufacturing If he does I hope you will recollect it when next Tory candidate presents himself to Greenwich (Laughter) Greenwich is a place that has

with a phrase which ia iw well understood (Cheer) Bvt the councils of Providence were deeper and higher eommil and it seems to have been the will of the Almighty to apply a more searching draatie and

war ha produced great re-anits I am one of those who hate a war (Hear hex) Hut when I look back over the ware of recent times I knownone which have produced result more I speak not now of the motives of human agente bat 1 peak of the councils of Divine than the war which has recently been brought to a conclusion A great and iniquitous domination haa been brought to the ground and yet there seems to remain an agita tiou liice the swell after the stormy winds hare cessed to blow I own 1 cannot comprehend the present post uon I do not like these military preparation Hear hear) I do not understood and 1 heard no argument yet which san justify after the conclusion of peace the the British fleet where it appears of those very treaties which we cntoU all along it ia our grant business and npbold I do not understand what all these egotiaticua or disputations are about aa to whether who haa sent a copy of the tncsty to every Power ie to present it to all the Powers when they are trembled together We are in the dark and peritaps neoaas aniy kept without knowledge of details until the negotiations reach a certain stage and we mast pronounce premature judgment but I own 1 am abla to understand why it is that the bm tug of this Congress which ia the one thing necessary to effect the pacification of Europe should be further delayed (Cheer) It ia nncessoryfor the pacification of Europe and it is necessary for the prosperity of England that these doubts nnd uncertainty which have been weighing like an incubus upon our industry and prosperity should oetwe aad for toot reason and for higher reasons I do pe that no mere matter of uiplomatio etiquette no mere matter of national or Ministerial vanity will be allowwd to pre vail to obtain a diplomatic victory where no other victory haa been or iese feel ings will be allowed either to intercept or prevent the meeting of the Powers of Europe (Hear hear) In the councils of Europe there is mnch to be done i the Congress will have much to do bat it is ueccsa that the men who ao to it should have skill and knowledge aud alo good intention and uo Government ought to Us animated with a spirit and suspicion In most human controversies pends upon whether the people wish to agree (Hear hear) Now 1 earnestly hope that the pint af peace is to prevail because as long aa Turkey waa on her legs there was something to tight for ami although it was a bad cans it was an infaelligit Bat what is there to fight for now Rossis got Constantinople and when Rnseia wanted to embark her troops there the British Ambassador would not allow her (Cries of Constantinople is not in danger aud as to the btraits the Gmernxaent of Russia has adopted a very rational policy and will allow the question to be settled by Euiopc Aa to Greece I applaud the conduct of our Government endeavouring to obtain fair play and secure for her equality at ieart in all essential matters with the Slavonic provinces but again I say may it please Almighty God in this state of things to turn our heart nd minds to the ends of peace (Cheer) I can say tliat in this treaty of peace 1 think there are things whict ought to be altered 1 cannot approve of the large extension of Bulgarin westward and 1 cannot justify for moment the taking away from the gallant Ito anianians the atrip of territory excised from Bessarab ia and I hope Russia will show too much magnanimity to make sudi demand I did not wish to approach th ter but look at them a you even if you look at them through the medium of a magnify injr-gWn what is there to create a cause for war And 1 say there is not a greater act of guilt and shame that a nation can perpetrate in the faco of Almighty God and of His suffering creatures than to rush into war without sufficient justification (Cheers) I must now bid you farewell but not for ever farewell for an interval ot tone haa to elapse during which our relatione must continue and 1 hope more will pass between us matters of public interest during the continuance of the present Parliament which seeme to be a tolerably healthy one (Laughter) I have laid before you very briefly the motives bv which I have been

performance on The attendance of spectators was very large all through and on Saturday the Hall was thronged It would be a matter of sonic difficulty to do more than guess at tbc number of people present at the finish but 20000 will be fouud well within tho mark The race had for some time past been reduced to a mti between O'Leary and Vaughan Still O'Leary hod to walk with great care to avoid break flow while Vaughan on Saturday afternoon aud evening walked and ran with surprising re tones It is to be regretted that acrupuloris impartiality should nut have been dealt out to all the ntvn engaged a-i there is no doubt that wheu people scak of Leary's triumph it will be remembered against him that bis entry was at least iulonmU that he was greatly favoured in having one track to himself while the other 17 oompetiftots had to crowd along ou tho other and that while a commodious comfortable tent was for him too Englishmen wcc penned up in dose hut It U'sy be that there was no intentional favouritism bnt tbe fact is beyoud doubt that the winner had all tho be -t of ths conditions Vaughan did a better six days performance than ho or any iglikhman hod done before and if at these long distances ue have stil to acknowledge the superiority of O'Leary aud his old rival Wcntoa let us reward the Englishman ho must nearly approached tho doings of the famous pair All day on Friday there seemed tome probability of a great race between O'Leary and Vaughan aud a close lu Leary alked with evident difficulty aud at times it seexnca to require all his resolution to enable him to keep going at all Vaughan certainly seemed stronger on his legs and cither walked or trotted with a very easy action He however was obliged to take more fieqaent rests than O'Leary A good many people thought from O'Leary's appearance that he would break down On the Friday night Vaughan retired to rest at rather less than tsn minutes past eleven while O'Leary left the track about 2U miuut Liter Vaaghau when he retired had done 141 miles six lap O'Leary's distance wheu he went to bis tout being 457 mile Vaughan was first to come out again returning to the track at about twenty minutes putt two From this time he went on till past four when he took another rest which however only lasted 2u minu't Meanwhile who hid returned to his work at three o'clock was going oa etesdily and well tbongh not at a very great pace About this time Vauhou began to give up hope of winning having becu uuable so for to catch Leary or even to get near to him lie left the path again at twenty-three tniuates past five but returned in 20 minute After this Vaughan kept on well till half-post seven when he retired for brekiaft Ail this time O'Leary had been making steady progress His right leg was in a bad state and any appiosch to a sport might have been attended with serious ct quence Despite the paiu bo was evidently in however ho retained his machine like style It was impossible to heip feeling admiration for tbe pluck of and it elicited loud and often repeated cheering Every nor and then it real! appeared likely that he woi Id have to retire before his victory was quite assured but he was evidently determined not to risk anything and ao kept walking hoar after hour till he wu certain that there was no time left in which Vaughan con id beat him indeed he really walked better at alxrat half past six ou Saturday afternoon than lie hod done three hours earlier though tbo way in which he put his feet down on the track plainly showed that he wa4 still in pain Vaughan wheu lie came bxck to the path after breakfast had rcasuu to think that hia chonoe of victory waa not altogether gone judging frtm O'ltaarj apjK-arance and he mode great effort frequently running for a Up or two at a go-id pace He seemed woudcriully fresh couid: -ring tbe extent of hi exertion and perfectly sound However he had no chance of nuking np the distance which separated him from Leary unless the latter was obliged to leave the track and as tho IrihAmerican kept on the result was redaoed to a certainty At seven o'clock Lear had completed 51G miles one lap and miles two lap As the race was announced to ternvnate at half-past ten O'Leary migiit have retired at this time without any risk of losing Vaughan could not at the end of a six days' competi tion have gme on for three hours and a half at the rote of neat ly six miles an hoar Lcury however kept on aud walked well He uupletod his o'M nules at four minutes past eight and left the track finally at ten minutes past eight liaviug then travelled 02V miles the greatest dittauce ever accomplished in six day beating his own previous record by a quarter of a mlc Vaughan had left the path and given np the contest at twenty minntes

and jests to which wo are considerably xpccl in the course of our political existenoe Last of all if I may say so I can assure the gentleman who has spoken on behalf of the Nonconformist that if I had any doubt as to their truth and fidelity their conduct daring the last 'JO months must have banished it uiough I must say no such doubt ever because tSw have formed the cewral fortress of the principles of justice aud humanity My relations with the Nonconformists are such that although I profess to concur with them in their religums position and I have not adopted questions on which they feel a deep interest yet I know tins that my relations with them have been those of unexampled indue ou the one side and I hope I may ssj of permanent acknowledgment ou tho other (Lbeers) The reasons by vrttich I have been inflnenred have relatim more to the werds which one of my kindfnends has just quoted Ho mado ne of an cpithc-t which i remember Lord Lyudhurat the best humoured of politician once sard was tho only ono which had ever been Si bed to him which be could cot excuse for some one i culled him old (Laughter) Unfortunately and perhaps unconsciously that man ex prcbsea a greater amount of truth than he waa aware of and the fact i after the long and active life in which 1 have been you will not wonder that a desire for rett or pariml rest counts for something What I have felt is this Looking forward to another Parliament is looking forward to another stage of political exiaoncc still removed from us by probably a considerable interval and having a strong sense that your local interests must and do require a great deal of attention which you cannot legitimately and permanently forego I cannot feel in my own mind and conscience that it would be in my power tu render that attention which yon ought to require It is true no doubt a far as regards those who are assembled in this nay more as far as regards those whom vou any amount oi sacrifice would be made as to yourself but in regard to questions at locnl interest we must consider the constituency as a whole and wo most not look only to the moment when kindly and warm feelings are aroused and when there is a disposition to put all difficulties out of the way hut mast look to tho permanent relations which are to bo established between a member and his constituency and if I am to look forward iute another Parliament I cannot feel for myself I say five or six years hence after the reasonable estimate which I can form of my health and hope to be a condition to satisfy 1 will not say the fair expecta-of expectations which there ne in a constituency like that of Greenwich I most go ooc step farther What I desire ia thi that although your borough is a Liberal btvough the oaaae should be represented in the borough by tboee who will represent it to the greatest advantage Now I have no title or reason or ground to complain of any portion of the constituency nor to apprehend any injustice from any portion of tho constituency but you know very well that it is a borough comprising to a vary large extent Government establishments and I tell you frankly lam not a friend of extended Government establishment (Hear hear) 1 am a great deal more of a rigorist on the st ore of public cffwiiwy than is the fashion in the present day One of my consolations in the House of Commons is to sit by the side of my friend and your friend Mr Bright (cbscra) and to talk with him over the bygone time when every leader of every party and when almort every member of every party was in favour of eoonomy Although I am a Liberal aud some people say a dangerous Liberal yet I will say to the honour of Hir Robert Feel whose life and memory I revere and love that in those days public and retrenchment and the keeping down to tt mum the public establishment was the motto which erery politician found it necessary to profess in the face of the people of England It is not so now It is impossible for 1 tell you and 1 defy you to select aoandidatc who has rigid notions upon that subject without his toileting considerable disadvantage and that ia a consideration which has largely weighed with me Now I rejoice in this organisation whch you have formed It ia in my opinion a noble idea this new for it is a new one that the Liberal liberal in its principle liberal ia iu political action should apply these principles of Liberalism to electoral representation Jetting every man foci that he ia to have his fair share of choice and interest in the candidate We have hitherto allowed ourselves to proceed iu this matter too much by cliques and We have been too like our friends ie Conservative It may be natural for them that five or six leading gentlemen should get together aud tell them who is to be the candidate bot that is not out? notion We wish that the man should be originally cbt-tewo as candidate before he is chosen as member You may say Well but the Conservatives will adopt this organisation and then we shall be just where we I do not feel so sure they will adopt thn organisation It ia better to Liberal principles than to there of the Time If they adopt it well and good Let them liave the benellt of it by all means They will be better for it and the nation will not be any worse Let them be Liberal in their organisation if not liberal anything else (Laughter) Yon set them a good examydo in what you are nour doing and I wish with all my heart this method of organisation which took iu origin from Birmingham may run through all the boroughs of the country and 1 may say I know no good reason why it should not be applied to the counties as when we succeed in obtaining either from a Liberal or a Conservative Government that political emancipation for our excellent patient and intelligent peasantry which we have obtained fur the people of the town (Cheer) My own feeling of incapacity haa undoubtedly weighed greatly with regards the existing and the prospective sentatiou of your local interests but I have not been governed by that alone I wish you to place youxselves under no disadvantage and I feci looking to the peculiar composition of your constituency ana the large influence which must neces-aarilv be exercised by the presence of a vast public ex penefitare in your borough you would fight at a disadvantage having for your candidate any one who was under the peculiar -end I will say the antiquated-potions which I am content to cherish and must cherish daring the remainder of my life because I have had them from the beginning of my life As

I was on the one baud a Russian or on the other a whereas 1 am neither more nor less than a simple Englishman (Cheers) Therefore 1 will content myself with endorsing the sentiment which has fallen from the Chancellor af the Exchequer when he said that if the honour or the interests of this country should require it the liberality of Parliament would not be wanting (Hear hear) The Chancellor of the Exchequer also alluded to a matter which attracted my attention two day ago though I do not know that it in a subject altogether fit to introduce to this assembly He spoke of our worthy chairman of this hospitable Hoard presenting himself to the House of Common 1 the other day aud asking for a bill to enable the Metropolitan Board of Works to put Needle upon the Thames Embankment Now when that incident occurred it seemed to me somewhat strani( that the Metropolitan Board of Works should have to oone aa a suppliant to Parliament for the power simy to put one stone upon another (Hear
