We are assembled to-night to coromemorate an important event im the his tory of Hherty—an event which entitles itself to our re gard rather by the generous purposes which gave it birth thon the success which ‘it achieved; but it may apprer, upon\a snore searching examination, that it hos been the custom to give to the Revolution of 1800, that there was really more of success than it was generally given credit for. But before we pass any judgment upon it, or upon any event connecter! with the interests of liberty or human freedom, we should extend our vision over the local theatre, and give our at tention to the precise period if which it oce to distant climes and future times. We may then despotism is not always secure, even when the hosts of liberty have been overthrown in battle. (Apel ‘ase. ) At this part of his speech Mr, Hale was interrupted by the entrance of the Turnvereins, a German Society, which was received with the greatest enthusiasm. When quiet was restored the speaker continued as follows:— Who at this day can tell how much we are indebted for.what of constitutional liberty we enjoy to the patri- otic efforts of the Englishmen who, instead of attaining 3 rewarded by execution. But there is this encouraging consideration, the whole tace is progressing —nothing ts ever lost—we are to-day what all the past has made us. National wealth, national intellect, and national liberty, is but the a: te of individual wealth, individual in- tellect, and individual liberty. Whosoever, therefore, in the reflections of his own heart, should emancipate but himself from the thrallof prejudice, break away from the tyranny of public opinion, will do much to increase that force with which the great contest between liberty and despotisin is to be fought inthe werld, (Applause. And my friends, as the first condition of this individual elevation, by which in the end nations are to be benefit- ted, is to be found in free thought, the mind must be free—free to expand and free to expatiate, free to go out on the wings of imagination to the remotest verge of creation—free to ascend with reverential curiosity to the throne of the Almighty himself. (Applause.) And this great boon of free thought is but hal: ong without another, and that other is free speech. ee thought and free speech are the levers by which (Renewed applause.) The that opposed its onward march, muat be free to commu- nicate those thoughts to those that are around it, so benefitted and the great amount of be preached, and the individual not I would be false to my convictions and to the proprieties of the occasion, if I did not say there was anotLer element of individual character without which ech and free thought itself are worse than useles, is that inward consciotsness, that self reliance, that energy by which a man determines in bis own heart the convictions of his understanding as to what is ag I may speak treason and heresy, but speak it I will. I mean the supremacy of conscience over kings and gov- eroments. (Applause.) Ibe man las but « poor a preciation of what he owes to himeelf and society, the great forces whieh itis his duty to bring to the re- generation of the political community, who has not such faith in the strength of his own manhood, that he may obey the deliberate convictions of his own con science. Aman thus prepared and thus intelligent is fit for any emergency, and when God and duty calls, he is ready to be a martyr. Here the speaker. w: teance of the French U le soon after concluded. Mr. MCMULLEN read a number of letters, among which were the following from Messrs.

The American demoeraey acknowledges the debt of gratitude which it owes to Europe for succor in the hour of need. The numes of Kosciusko, of Lafayette, of Pu- lawski. tnd of the many others who risked their fortunes and thei lives to sustain the principle of popular so- Yereignty involved in the contost, are not forgotten; and even thtugh the United States government should take | ing no active part in the contest, nevertheless private citi- zen8 Will, 80 soon as & serious resistance to oppression be madq in Europe, furnish to the patriots supplies of various \lescriptions, xud also some volunteers. Some Provision may possibly be raised for propaganda, and for the return of tho political: refugees, in. anticipation of the approaching convulsion. : It ix ovr duty, furthermore, to inform you that the amount of sympathy likely to be excited inthe breasts of American citizens depends, ina great measure, upon the character of the movement—for if, as was the case in 1848, the people be contented with thd delusive pro- inises of the treacherous royal despots who con to the vations the semblance of constitutions, while they pre- served their thrones, and held in their hands the purse of corru, and the sword of power, then, truly will Ame- ricans thatit would be worse than useless in them to directly or indirectly countenance the fraud. It is the more necessary, brethren, to direct Tone at tention to this point, since the governments of Europe which are now at war with Russia have already made certain ambiguous and deceptive allusions to the possi- ble reconstraction of the Volish nationality. Beware, friends and brothers—this is a meve bait of the Powers toventice. inte their camp the oppressed populations of the violated nationalities, and enlist the victims of Cespotism to fight its battles. He not deceived, brethren, by the promises of governments which huve already 50 cruelly betrayed and maltreated you, Without searching far back in the a of history, which afford a series of lessons for our instruction, let us Coniemplate the events which have come under our | own obvervation since 1847. On the 12th of January, | 1848, tho revolution broke out in Palermo, and after a a Hey which Iveted tilt the end of that month, the | the wholo island of Sicily (the citadel of Messina alone excepted) repudiated thc authority of the King. The , French Revolution followed on the 24th of February, | that of Vienna on the 1ith of March, that of Milan on the 1Sth of the sawe mouth. The whole of Italy, of Germany, and afierward of Hungary, reused by these noble exumples, caused ihe thrones of old Europe to totter, Never forget, bretiren, from what quarter cmanated that artrul counsel which lulled into a supposed security the confing populations, disarmed their oplifted hands, and averted from the princes that tate which was their due.

Will you, friends and brothers, will you again repose confidence im the purjured princes, diplomatists, priests, and aristocrats, who in return fer your magnanimous | texbearance in 1848 and your forgiveness of thelr past misdeeds, have so unrighicously persecuted you?

This, however, was only the language of hope: Doubtless some remem. ber the days when the evangelical societies were brought forth. But, though th imestimable good, compen- eating their exertion’ manner to justify their roped tion; nevertheless, those high wrought expectations have not deen realized. The millennium is not near—the world is yet full of wickedness. Darkness yet covers a multi- tude of sina. There are inexplicable mysteries in this pro- videnee of God,and the inquiry still presents iteelf—' shall we@o? what can we dof There are certainly calla at present from every part of the world, and thers is aa great a need of energy now as ever. Let us inquire if there be not a practicable connection between what ie doue by a servant of God and the form of preaching, or in circulating the Bible, or in any other of the forma of dissemiuating evangelical truth. The suthér of the Bible is God—its subject is God, and Ho who gives offt- cacy to it is God. Ido not mean the book as a dead let- ter, but I mean the contents—the spirit of the book, Ls thare net power there? How happenait, then, it is circulated to a vaet extent and is not effi- eacious? The word of God is the sword of the spirit; - and why does it not go forth conquering and to conq It does not follow as # divine rule that there shall beam infallible connection between the preaching of the word and the salvation of him who hears. If there was, them: this blessed result would occur whenever and wherever ft was preached. Every-thing appertaining to God's grace in the world possesses # sanctity which forbids um- holy hands to meddle with it. The Scriptures are made efficacious whenever 4 radical change is accomplished im guilty wan. By what means, then, can nian so use the Scriptures that this change may be wrought? If God gives the holy spirit: to those who ask him—if we are taught that the effectual, fervent prayer of righteoyp man availeth much—then, if the churches are fervent their supplications as they ate liberal in their donations. then, indeed, wo might indulge more fervent hopes tham these which now aumate the people of God. A spirit of prayer accompanying the labors of love, will give alithe efficacy that it is inthe power of man to give. ‘the Hon. G. P.
