TfiE POLISH . ANB . HUNGAKUN — - ~ --=- - ' REFUGEES .
CoTTyrnriiES , —My object in addressing yon is to direct attention , to : the position of a number of bravo men , expatriated from their native soil , for the heinous crime of fi ghting for their country ' s weal . They are fifty-four in number ; wives and children—if they have any—far away ; and themselves literally starving . They are Polish and Hungarian Kefagees T—men who deserve well at the hands of all nations .
Last evening , one of those brave riien called upon me with a message , the purport of which was that they were without food , and required immediate aid . Some , he informed me , had got threepence for theday ; huthehad notgot anything . I informed him that Mi-. O'Connor was on the continent , hut I would do all I could to aid them , and should visit them in less than an hour . When I arrived in the localit y I was
directed to , I passed the place , for one substantial reason—I did not imagine it was an habitation for human beings . I thought it was a barn or stable , and therefore proceeded to the end of the street , and inquired for 41 , Turamill-street . I was told to go back again , as I had got to No . 73 . I therefore retraced my steps until I found 41 chalked on a hoard about five inches square , and nailed against what I must call the barn door . The
lower portion of the building was dark and empty , and on ascending a ladder I found another dark empty room . This room had a communication with another , in which were the Refugees , and a more gloomy , destitute place I do not desire to enter . I stood for several minutes against a stove , but could not see the features of the Refugees sufficientl y to identify the one whom I had seen an hour previous . I mused upon their past deeds , their struggles , and their present position , and my feelings were such as to compel jne to retire , for a few minutes . "While at thb door " my visitor came up , and I again returned , -and being
invited to the upper end of the rooih , I took the opportunity of looking round . They , appeared fine , bold , intelligent men ; unbroken in spirit , bat hunger-bitten . " Their wardrobes a peared to be all on their backs , ( as I saw neither box nor trunk , ) food seemed to be almost a nonentity among them . I saw one have about a quarter of a p int of liquid resembling thin scrap , another had an onion , of which he gave a portion to a brother exile . Ho w many retired to sleep npon nothing I know not , yet I know I enjoyed little sleep after witnessing a scene which my pen is inadequate to describe .
Citizens of London , goto 41 , Turamillstreet , Clerkenwell , and see for yourselves ; and pray do not let seeing ; and inquiring be all you " do . I wish those who cannot visit the exiles would do something in ihe shape of help . The Queen and Prince Albert might find time to visit them . It would do them more good than the Opera . The Ministers and Members of Parliament might visit them , as they are not required to attend much to the shop , at present . . Ministers ofthe Gospel mi g ht go and show how much more blessed it is to give than to receive .
If there are any who desire to do good here on earth they will either visit the exiles or send them aid . I heg that each , a » d all who reads this , wiH endeavour to wipe away the stain—hypocrisy—from our national character , which stain may he obliterated b y brotherl y love made manifest in action ; and , at the same time , remembering that all men are onr brethren , including the Polish and Hungarian Refugees .

Thb Fhench Fleet In Tobbat.—The French F...
Thb Fhench Fleet in Tobbat . —The French fleet , consisting of six sailing vessels and one screw steam vessel , anchored in Brixham-roads between two and three o ' clock on the afternoon of Monday . Captain Storey , of the coast guard service , boarded the admiral ' s ship on Monday , at i 30 p . m , and ascertained that the fleet were from Cherbourg , and bound to Brest , and that they put in from stress of weather , although the wind at the time was due north and moderate . The fleet consists of six lineof-battle ships and one steam frigate , under the command of Admiral Duchesnes , in the Friedland , and a vice-admiral . The two admirals' ships are three deckers , and the other four sailing ships two deckers . On Tuesday afternoon the fleet got under weigh , and proceeded down Channel . The unexpected arrival ofthe fleet created quite a surprise , and numbers from Brixham and other adjacent towns visited the coast to view the squadron of the Republic .
The following appeared in our third edition of last week : — « . £ ?? E' PjmM ' PmnAr . —Prince Calh ' machi , flie Turkish Ambassador in Paris , had along conference with General Lahitte , the Minister of Foreign Aftairs / onthe subject of the Hungarian refugees .

These symbols related to the Count of Chambord . The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty .
HOME , Ociobeb 16 . —Great discontent and excitement has been caused by the announcement ofthe execution of Nardonni ' s assassin , and conspirators . The attitude of the people was so menacing that the Pope had . Aeen induced by the French General to commute the sentence of death of the four persons condemned at the last moment .

The Bweatjk8 System. ^__ ^ A*Ublio Meeti...
THE BWEATJK 8 SYSTEM . ^__ ^ A * ublio meeting was held on Monday evening at ¦> . A ' puuuu uiw . » i s Acre , to hear a refutation St VI hv the XrSiel y of an article contained ^ ttlJSSifcto ' in ^ vourof'th ^ Bweating . S ^ f ^ spacious Hall was crowded andMr . ^ v hew who was announced to take the chair , wai on his arrival , greeted with loud applause . The Secretary having read the bill convening the meetin g and the article m the Morning . Chronicle , which professed to be the first of a series in which the writer intended to give a sketch of the different lar ge establishments proposing to exhibit their goods at the Exposition of 1851 , with their mode of
doing business , and the relation between them ana theirwork people ; they commenced with Mr . Kicoll , not only as employing a great number of men , but also as being the donor of a magnificent prize at the ensuing Exhibition ; the whole article was a complete puff upon Mr . Nicoll's establishment ; but the following was a dangerous portion , which occasioned the calling of the meeting . It stated that Mr . Nicoll employed about 1 , 200 workmen , and that he preferred employing them oh the Domestic [ alias Sweating ) System , as it enabled them to have the assistance of their wives aud children , and to work long hours ; and that it was in other respects conducive to the physical and the moral welfare of those employed . The article in question also gave a glowcomfortable condition
in ^ picture of the health and of tho workpeople , and further stated that Mr . Nicoll gave employment to a great many foreigners . Mr . Mathew , on rising , said that he was generally known among them as the Special Correspondent of the Morning Chronicle , and the originator of the inquiries made by that paper into the condition of the labourer throughout tho kingdom . He was no longer the correspondent of that paper , and he came there not only to vindicate the cause of the tailors , but also his own character . He was not the author of the article complained of , neither would he have written it for any boon that could bo given him ; on seeing the Leader newspaper , he was surprised to see himself described as the writer , and thanked
for the good he had effected'in Mr . Meoll ' s establishment , having left the Chronicle three days before . He immediately wrote to the editor to state in the paper that he was not the author ; To this his answer was "Ko . " ( Cries of " Shame . " ) He , therefore , was glad of that opportunity to disclaim the article , and to show the reason-why his connection had ceased with that paper . Mr . Mayhew then informed the meeting that when he commenced writing- the articles on ^ "Labour and the Poor , " knowing the free trade policy of the paper , he extracted a pledge , that not a line of his communications should be altered , nor a fact omitted , but he soon found that if he sent anything which clashed with their school of Political Economy , the pen was
immediately drawn throught it . On one occasion , in an article on the bootmakers of London , it was carried to such an extent that be could no longer pass it by , but wrote to the editor , demanding its unmutilated insertion , or his ( Mr . Mayhew ' s ) dismissal . Mr . Mayhew then read the correspondence between himself and the editor , from which it appeared that they would not insert it , nor yet allow him to . state that he was no longer connected with the paper in question . Under these circumstances , as soon as he had finished the tour he was then engaged on , he quitted their employment ; and then saw , with indignation , the present mawkish article , which he was aware would be fathered on him . He knewnothinff uersonally of Mr . Kicholl , ho only
knew him as one who was dragging down tho sinews of labour ; and as such he was his enemy . ( Great cheering . ) He was a working man ; he had worked hard at his profession , and had also starved at it ; and under the present system , every honest man was liable to experiences similar result . Mr . Mayhew then analysed the . " domestic system " of which Mr . Nicoll put himself forth as the champion , and showed that it was productive of misery and crime . He then advertedto Mr . Nicoll , > s High Sheriff of London , and showed that it was a disgrace that such unfair traders should be elevated to such a lofty position , in a city where commerce and trade were the paramount interests . Mr . Nicoll had put the climax npon puffing—he employed the Sheriff ' s
gilded carriage as an advertising van for his registered paletots . He also alluded to the glass palace in Hyde Park , and suggested that another should be erected by its side , to show how the work people lived who produced those wonders of wealth . While they showed their g lery to foreigners , let them not shrink from exposing their ignorance , and then they would be able to judge whether 'England was the greatnation she represented herself to be . Cheapness was the Millenium ofthe Political Economists , but cheapness was only a relative term , and if all things were made equally cheap , they would be in the same position as when they commenced , having endured the horrors of the scramble for no effective purpose , but to benefit those who
produced not . There were two kinds of cheapness , legitimate and illegitimate ; the first was produced by a large system of production , and the introduction of machinery ; that cheapness might be a blessing , provided they would kill their surplus labourers , but unless they did that , they must either keep them as paupers or criminals . - Every day they were learning to do more labour with less hands . In the agricultural districts only one million and a half of people were employed instead of three m > l lions . Formerly in Great Britain they had a scientific power of six hu ndred milium men to compete wuu ti » laoour of four million of workmen . Was it not a marvel that the latter could live at all ? That was the great social problem which
they had to solve , and which , if not grappled boldly with , would end in horrid destruction ; and yet men , like Cobden and Bright , were going about the country saying that the people were prosperous , well fed , and happy ; let either of these men accompany him through that country , and he would shew them such scenes of misery as should fright their souls with horror , if souls they had—they have none . This was the first time of his stating his views . He . knew the press would call him a Chartist or a Socialist ; he belonged , as yet , to no creed ; he was only a seeker after truth , - h " e saw the evil but not the remedy , and they should not stigmatise him for searching out the truth . Cheapness cost this country sixty millions a year , ( of which Mr . Mayhew gave the items , ) a tax , paid by the
working man and the fair tradesman , to support a few great monopolists , who gave their men less wages than would support nature , ' and thus threw them for support on society . The speaker then went into the question of illegitimate cheapness , and showed that Mr . Nicoll , by saving shop rent , light , trimmings , < fcc ., and paying his men reduced wages , made an annual saving of £ 19 , 500 a year , which , during the nine years he had been in business , would amount to about the £ 180 , 000 which he professed to have amassed . The speaker then dwelt upon a variety of other portion ' s ofthe subject , strongly denouncing all the petty contrivances of amelioration proposed by Lord Ashley and other namby-pamby reformers , and concluded an address which lasted above two hours , with tremendous applause . -The meeting was addressed by Messrs . Essery , Prior , Martin , and Segurand
resolutionsdenun-, , ciatory of the sweating system , were unanimously adopted . A vote of thanks was given to Mr . Mayhew , who , in acknowled ging it said , that his vocation was simply collecting facts , but , as far as he had hitherto gone , the best remedy was a combination of working men in trades' unions . The honourable masters of every trade ought to encourage such unions ; they were an honour to working men , and effected far more good in supporting each other , and keeping down poor rates , than the public knew or : they prevented the underpaid producers from being robbed by the overpaid consumer , and served as a check upon the rapacity of the rich . He then , in the most powerful and fervent language , called upon the working men to throw off their shackles , as the middle classes did in 1830 , and demand that labour should be protected . ( Immense cheering . )

The Roman Catholic Hieralachym 1 • - ::-...
THE ROMAN CATHOLIC HIERAlaCHYM - ::- ^ ± - : - : y-J ! NGLANLV *^*^ -r- ^ : ^^ The-division of Eng land' into Catholic archiepiscopal and episcopal districts is causing great sensation among the champions of Protestant ascendency , and . the Daily Press ( ofi every , political shade ) has united in calling public attention to the late movements at Rome . The ^ Apostolic Letter , " after alluding to the first introduction-of Christianity into England ; states that : —?? Encouraged \> J the example of his predecessors , his Holiness has , ever since the commencement of his pontificate , harboured . in . his mind , the desire of favouring the development of the . Catholic religion among the people of Groat ; Britain - " and now , u considering
as a whole the state of Catholicism in England ; reflecting on the considerable number of Catholics which keep still increasing ; remarking that every day the obstacles are falling off which stood in the way of the extension of the . Catholic reli gion , we have thought that the time was come when the form of ecclesiastical government should be used in England , such as it exists , freely exists , in other nations , where no particular cause necessitates the ministry of vicars apostolic . " Accordingly . " we have resolved , and do hereby decree , the re-establishment in the kingdom of England , and according to the common laws of the church , of ahierarohy of bishops deriving from titles from their own sees , which we constitute by the present letter , in the
various apostolic districts . He then ^ conimencing by the district of London , establishes an archiepiscopal see at Westminster , comprising the counties of Middlesex , Essex , and ? Hertford . The see of Southwark , which is suffragan to that of Westminster , comprises the counties of Berks , Southampton , Surrey , Sussex , and Kent , the Isles of Wight , Jersey , Guernsey , and the adjacent isles . In the north there is to but one see , named after ! the town of Hagglestown . Next follows the see of the district of York , to be established at Beverley . There are to be two sees in the district of Lancaster ; that of Liverpool , comprising ¦ the Isle-of Man , Lonsdale , Amounderness , and ¦ : West Derby ; and that of Salford , including : Blackburn and Leyland . Wales shall comprise the diocese of Shropshire , including tho counties of Anglesea , Caernarvon , Denbighshire , Flintshire , Merionethshire ' Montgomeryshire , and Cheshire ; and : that
, of . Newport , comprising Brecknockshire , Glamorganshire , Caermarthenshire , Pembrokeshire , Radnorshire , Monmouthshire , and Herefordshire . The west js . divided into two bishoprics ; that of Plymouth , including the shires of Gloucester , Somerset , and Wilts , and that of Clifton , extending over those of Devon , Dorset , and Cornwall .: In the central district the see of Nottingham shall comprise the shires of Nottingham , Derby , Leicester , Lincoln and .. Rutland ; that of Birmingham shall include the counties of Staffordshire , Warwickshire , Buckinghamshire , and Oxfordshire . The eastern district shall form one see , under the name of Northampton , " Thus , in tho very flourishing kingdom of England , there will be one single ecclesiastical province , with one archbishop and twelve suffragans , whose zeal and pastoral labours will , we hope , by the grace of God , bring new and daily increase to the power of Catholicism . "
: On the publication of this Bull the English Roman Catholics now in Rome obtained an audience of the Pope , and were presented , by Cardinal Wiseman to thank his Holiness for these measures . Pius IX . spoke on this occasion , as we are informed b y a French Catholic priest to the following effect ; — "I had not intended to send the new Cardinal ( Wiseman ) back to England , but to keep him near the Papal Court , and to employ his talents here . But I am persuaded , added the Pope , that the time
is come to set about the great enterprise for which you have just thanked me . I think he . has nothing , to fear in England . I spoke of it some lime ago to Lord Minto , and I understood that ihe English Government would offer no opposition to the execution of my plans . I therefore send this eminent Cardinal back to England , and . I entreat you all to pray without ceasing that all difficulties may be removed , and that a million—nay , three millions—of your countrymen still separated from us may enter into this hew church even to the last of themV" '
The Rev . Dr . Ullathorne , Catholic Bishop of Birmingham , writes to the Times , declaring that the Bull is simply an act "between the Pope and his own spiritual advisers , who are recognised as such by the Emancipation Act . " An increase of bishops ; he says , was needed , and this could not be made except by the Pope , " nor without a new territorial division . " The change is the result of frequent and earnest petitions from the Catholics of England , and it has been made in America and our own colonies , "without exciting a clamour . " The * rev . gentleman , asserting that" it is difficult for the uninitiated to comprehend the technicalities of a papal document , " contends that the entire measure " has been one of liberality and concession on the part of
his Holiness , " and that the Pope has transferred from his hands "into ours , the local episcopacy , " literally giving them self-government , " retaining only his supremacy . " The letter concludes : — " It is as unfair to confound this boon of liberty to the Catholic Church in England with ideas of aggression on the English government and people , as it is to confound the acts of Pius IX , as Pope with the notion of , his temporal ! sovereignty , v--For my part , engaged as I have been in the * negotiation throughout , I know that ' nolpolitical objects are contemplated in it . It . was an . arrangement ; much needed b y the Catholics ovEngland for . their \ spiritual concerns , and I am , with all English Catholics , thankful for it , and I have no fear or alarm for the consequences . "
Dr . Wiseman has disallowed the recital at mass ofthe usual collect or prayer for the Royal Family ; It is asserted by a correspondent in the Times , of Thursday , who was present at the meeting in St . Patrick ' s Chapel , that when Dr . Wiseman ordered the suppression of the prayer , no reference was made to any regulation of , the "Vicars Apostolic , but that the only ground he assigned for what he required was , the impropriety of having the name of an heretical Prince mixed up with that of the Pope in the mass .
The Archdeacon and Canons of Westminster have presented a memorial to the Bishop of London , asking for his counsel under circumstances of an unprecedented character , and . how they may best vindicate the rights of the church and the country , avert the dangers with which they are menaced , and maintain the peace of society , and the cause of unity and truth . - The reply of the Bishop was made public on Tuesday . It says : — " The recenfc . assumption of authority by the Bishop of Rome in pretending to parcel out this country into new dioceses , and to appoint archbishops and bishops to preside over them , without the consent of the Sovereign , is a sohismatical act , without precedent , and one which would not be tolerated by the Government of . any Roman
Catholic kingdom . I trust that it will not -be quietly- submitted to by our own . " With respect to " the proper conduct to be pursued on this occasion , " the Bishop says : — " You will do well to call the attention of your people to tho real purport of this open assault upon our Reformed Church , and to take measures for petitioning the legislature to carry out the principle of the statute which forbids all per- ; sons other than the persons authorised by law-to assume or use the name , style , or title of any archbishop of any province , bishop of any bishopric , or dean of any deanery in England or Ireland , by extending the prohibition to any pretended diocese or deaneries in these realms . It is possible that such prohibitions might riot have the effect of preventing
the assumption of titles by the Papal bishops , when dealing with their own adherents ; but it would make tbe assumption unlawful , and it would mark the determination of the people of this country not to permit any foreign prelate to exercise spiritual jurisdiction over them . " Cardinal Wiseman has ' also addressed his " clergy , regular and secular , and the faithful of his archdiocese and diocese , " iri a long epistle , which was read on Sunday in all the Roman Catholic chapels of the metropolis . It is superscribed "Nicholas , by the Divine mercy , of the Holy Roman Church , by the title of St . Pudentiana , Cardinal Priest , Archbishop of Westminster , and Administrator apostolic of the diocese : of Southwark . " and
dated "the Flaminian Gate of Rome , " October 7 th . Dr . Ullathorne , the Catholic Bishop of Birmingham ,: was . enthroned on Sunday morning in the cathedral of that town . The edifice was crowded . No less than twelve clergymen , formerly ininistera of the Anglican church , were among those assisting in , or witnesses of the ceremony . The sermon an hour-and-a-half long , was preached by Dr . Newman , and excited great , interest . On this occasion Dr . Newman said , " the mystery of God ' s providence is now fulfilled / . and . though he did not recollect any people on ' earth but those of Great Britain who having once rejected the religion o f Cod , were again restored to the bosom of the Church , God had done it for them ; It was wonderful in their eyes , jhe
holy hierarchy had been restored . The grave was opened , and Christ was coming out . The Committee bi "The London Union on Church Matters " met on Monday * and resolved unanimousl y , '" That this committee solemnly declares that it considers the present E piscopate of the Church of England to bo truly arid completely that which was founded by the successors of the Apostles , and therefore is entitled to the entire arid undivided allegiance of the Church of England That this committee having read and considered a recent Papal Bull , together with an address from Cardinal Wiseman , feels itself compelled to state that it considers the same , with the claims therein advanced , to ho an unquestionable invasion of the Church of England .
