Scene im the Streets of London and Hyde Park. [From the London Times, Nov. 25. Formerly public demonsirations, with fe ceptions, were organized only when some great privilege was to be demanded, or some oppressive social grievance w: to be redressed, and, on all h na, even when the gbject proposed did not attract ympathbies of the people, these expressions of foeling wore elicied by men who had done the State some service, or whose talents inspired respect and admiration. Now, not only isthe public mind disturbed by repeated movements in which not a tithe of the community feels the faintest interest, but these agitations are initiated and or- ganized by individuals who @re ooly released from obscurity by the excitement whien they create, and the factitions éclat which always accraea to those who defy the lawfully constituted authorities, Yesterday oue of these demonstrations took place, and if any intel- ligent foreigner required to be convinced of the extended freedom of the Englien people and the forbearance of the Powers that be, he would bave foundjan ample proof of both in the fact that a jon numberme some two thousand persons was permitted to march through the principal thoroughfares of the metropolis, proclaim. mg their sympathy with tbe cause of men who had been executed for the wilful murder of one of the officers of the Crown, and who had openly proclaimed their sympathy with a treasonable conspiracy against the throne of the reahos The authorities, as have intimated, made no oppo- sition to the ion, and every ope who took part in it seemed to realize the gravty and sotemaity of the occasion. We trost, however, that a ¢epetition of this movement will not as contemplated be persisied in, and those who have influence with the lower c!asses of Irish in London ought to exercise their power to prevent the aguravation of the unfavorable feeling with which the po of England, not without good cause, now regard hose connected directly and indirectly with the Fenian organization, About baif-past nine yesterday mornimg small groups of peopie, manifestly intending to take part in the demoustration, bad assembled on Cierkenweil grecn, and on one side 4 preacher heki forth on the future hopes as contrasted with the material interests of man, and on the other a gentleman, who spoke with a atrong forelgn actent, expatiated on the brutality and cruelty of the English government, Gradua‘ly fresh accessions were mado to those who had already met; but, though the numbers of those who purposed taking part in the demonstration were visibly increasing, the thick, yellow fog whick prevailed afforded reason to believe that the resolution to organize the procession would be ultimately abandoned, ‘hortly before eleven, however, Mr Finlan took up ins position near the fountain which stands in the centre of, tho n, and, a meeting having been formed, a Mr. Wade was voted to the chair. We need scarcely say that the chair on the occasion. was rather figurative than material, for the speakers who addressed the assembly bad to make the steps of the fountain ‘their tribune for the time, Tne Cuamman announced that those Peapieme she meeting should at once torm tour abreast, ‘thar th ey should do all In their power to preserve order, Every ‘man should constitute himself a epecial constable, and they #hould advance to the Park tn solemn silence, The procession was then arranged with such expedi- tion that tho advanced guard of it left Clerkenweil green about ten minutes after the speakers bad con- elnded. Before it, supported on two poles, a large biack banner was borne, with the legend— Man's fnbutaanity to man Nakes countiosd thousaads mourn, Bobtad the front rank io which the banner was carried followed a band of fifes and which ‘@t intervals played the bymn known in the Roman Catholic Church as “Adee pdel” and the “Dead Siarch” ig Saul alternately, . The pe. was, as might be expected, composed for the most part of working men, but the demonstration possessed ‘one peculiar feature which was never presented hy any of the similar displays with which we bave been made so familiar daring the last two years—a larze number of thoee composing tbe procession yesterday wero women, mont of tiem respectably drossed, and evidently taking no indifferent part in the proceedings of the day. The jomists Marched down Farriagdon street. and then turned into Fleet street, moving at ordinary walk- img pace, Progress was then made along the Strand, ‘and thence past Trafaigar square, aiona Pall Mall, up St. James’ street, and turning to the loft aloug Piccadilly, to the Apsley Gate entrance to Hyde Park. No incon- venidace to trifle Was Caueed, as lar as we conld eee, in the thoroughfares traversea, and who (ook part ia the demonstration preserved their evennces of line and regularity of pace In @ manner which was astonishing when we remenber the heterogencous elenents of the roCesst To@ Park was reached ayout two o'clock, it here we must pause to relate what was taking place in a quarter during the progress we Lave do- scribed. i, appears that many of those residing in the Hol- horn distret who invended 10 participate in the demon- stration thought that tue procession would go to the Park by Oxford street, and so they did not proceed to Clerkeawell green in the mornimg, but waited for the arrival of their frienda Finding, however, ihat the latter did not appear at the hour at which they were ex- peoted, those of the Holborn division, bolieving that, as roremnnee by some Of those Whe last week moet as- siduousiy exeriod themselves to procare the respite of the Foulan convicts, the resolution proposed by Mr, Fintan on Friday bad boon abandoned, resol. ed on hold- ing a gneeting themselves similar to that which had been rajeced. They, therefore, made their way 10 the atk, and a ineeting having been formed, a ir. Bligh Was appo nied to preside, He said that they all had the same Wauls and so they shouid all have ibe eame rights, Alluding to the execution of the Fenians, be eaid nothing bat digaiieetion could proceed from the indis- criminate craeity of a goveroment. As at the conctaston of the first meeting, the reciting of the “De Profundis’ couciuded ue proceedings of tho second. subsequently another gathering was formed, at which &@ person who we wore informed iy a pr pter a: an ber of the Reform League, bat who-e naine we could Rot asceriain, presided. Toe language used at 1 meoting Was more violent than any employed by the other seaders of the demonstration, for the aristocracy Were most Vebemently denounced and the institstion of @ republic vindicated. At the conciusion of the Sperches a very impressive and, ta some extent, dra- matio econo was enacted. All the Romag Catnolice Presemt knelt down on the grars with their heads an. covered, aad ihe prayers prescribed by the oman ath. elle Church for the repoes of the souls of ihe dead were read from a taissal, the responses bolug uttered.by tho crowd with great suiemauty.
