this timely warning , but also for placing the facts connected with the temporary overthrow of his own country in so clear a light , that , in future , England must feel itself closely and inseparably indentified with the struggle for the re-establishment of Constitutional Government in Hungary . For our own sake we are bound aa a nation , to give all the aid we can to the accomplishment of that object . If the - ' ¦¦ __ ¦ _ ¦¦¦¦"¦ « " a . . _ ' ' '' ' ' ' " _
battle be not fought in Hungary , it will , ere long , have to be decided at our own dopra . Well does the Czar know that the principle of which he iB the representative is utterly incompatible with the existence of free institutions anywhere . He must , therefore , by tho very necessities of his position , incessantly strive to put them down , if he would not be put down himself .
The Winchester Banquet brought , out ano ther cheering fact : the United States of Ame " rica will no longer hold themselves-aloof from European politics , or the struggles of European nationalities for freedom . Allied as they are to erery nation in the Old Continent by the mixture of races who have sought refuge , subsistence , and citizenship in their ample territories , it is impossible but that they must sympathise with their oppressed and struggling brethren . Prizing freedom aud the power of self-government above all things themselves .
we perceive—more andinore strongly developed , the feeling that the mission of the people of the United States is to plant Republican institutions in every quarter of the globe . For the first time , that idea was distinctly enunciated at the Winchester meeting , by the Hon . Mr . Walker , an American senator of eminent ability and influence . We aro assured that , whenever called upon to render their aid , the flag of the United States shall be found by the side of the standard of England . Will the tri-colonr of Franco be absent when such a conjunction takes place ?
Here , then , we have new guarantees for the future emancipation of Europe , which , but tor the visit of M . Kossuth , would never have been tendered . They have been circulated all over the Continent , and have given birth to hopes as they will—to renewed effortsdestined to eventuate in triumph . The Hungarian statesman will become tho liberator of peoples now enslaved . Hungary will be but the vanguard of emancipated nations . ' i j
One feature in these gratifying ovations to this eminent patriot must jiofc be left unnoticed—the catholicity and comprehensiveness of bis sympathies . M . KossuTll is no narrow bigot , wedded to one exclusive form of Constitutional Government . In France , he recognised Republicanism , because it j ' s the established and constitutional form of Government chosen by the pouple of that country , and he addressed the people—not the traitors to the Constitution , who , at this moment , are doing all they can to overthrow it . In like manner , he appreciated the form in which popular and i j ; ^ , , j < i
monarchical power aro welded together and harmonised in our own country , together with that wide diffusion of local and municipal selfgovernment which really constitutes the essence of democracy . No foreigner ever before so thoroughly , completely , and cordially entered into the spirit of our institutions as M . Kossuth did in his first speech at Southampton . It fully bore out Jill that had been reported ef the intense earnestness with which he has studied the history and the constitution of England , while the fluent , graceful , fervid , and appropriate manner in i { ) \ I , i
which he expresses himself in our language , testifies to the fact in a different way . Evidently our literature , language , and institutions are familiar to him us ' household word ? , But , however warm mar be his appreciation of the principles embodied in our institutions , it will not prevent his sympathising with and admiring the institutions of the great and noble Federation on the other side of the Atlantic , where he will shortly proceed to receive a similar , perhaps more enthusiastic reception then lias been accorded him here . Some surface-mongers have charged Kossuth i
with inconsistency for this , because they are unable themselves to perceive that forms are comparatively valueless , and that the vital principle embodied in them is all that the practical statesman regards , Constitutional Government with M , Kus&uth Jis that practical development of the principle of selfgovernment , which is most in unison with the feelings , habits , and associations of the people for the time being . He is therefore prepared to recognise and respect that principle in any of its phases , and we should be sorry to find him less Catholic that ] he is . , ' j \ ( ]
In closing these desultory observations , we may state that M . Kossuth has accepted the invitationof the Central Committee to receive the address on behalf of the Metropolitan Working Classes , and to attend the banquet which will follow its presentation on Monday next . It is proposed that the Central Committee and tho trades shall assemble in Russell-square at eleven o ' clock ; from whence tho procession will proceed to Copenhagen House , by way of Tottenham Court-road , Hampsteadroad , and Camden Town road . The address i i i ( I i t i s > i
will be presented in Copenhagen House b y the Committee , to which the illustrious hero will deliver a written reply , and then shortly address the public in the spacious grounds attached to the premises . The Banquet iu the evening will take place at Highbury Tavern . These arrangements have been rendered necessary by the serious indisposition under which we deeply regret to state he is suffering —an indisposition caused in the first place by his long imprisonment , and aggravated , no doubt , siuco his arrival hero , " by tho incessant calls upon his attention and his bodily ; i i i ' <¦
energies . In meeting the aggregate assembly of the working classes , Kussimi gives another proof of his thorough and hearty sympathy with tho people . There are , no doubt , ' white-kid ' liberals wlio would have dlssauded him from doing go . His own true aud noWe instincts have chosen better . When the struggle for Hungarian freedom is renewed , lie wants the English People to help him . i-i « uce he holds out the hand of Brotherhood to all Wo have no doubt as to the warmth with which it will bo grasped b y the nia&sca on Monday .

THE NEW REFORM BILL . At length there are signs of a genuine movement in tue manufacturing districts for tlie furtherance of Parliamentary Reform . On Tuesday the Council of the Manchester Association assembled to consider the propriety of a conference being called , with reference to tho measure said to bo comtemphted by Lord Joiu \ Russell . Tho meeting , we are informed , was an influential one , aud characterised by the greatest unanimitv . The result of its deliberations was the adoption of a resolution proposed by Mr . Bbight , one of the members ior tho city , aud seconded by Mr . Kbrshaw , representative of another laro-e
manutacturnigtow n-thataconference shallbe hold , if possible , in the first week in December . The busmoBs is distinctl y atated to bo 'to confer on the steps winch may be necessary to give due expression to public opinion , and thus to secure such a measure oY reform as may be satisfactory to the country .

Lancashire and Yorkshire may very lUTOly not pronounce in favour of the People ' s Uiarter at the approaching conference ; but it is Btill less likely that they will identify themselves with any mere Whi g sham ; and if the meeting be discreetl y and properly managed , it will result in organising within -Parliament so powerful and compact a party , as to compel the concession of a genuine ex-

tension of the suffrage to thQ people , aCc pained with such accessories as will guava ? its healthful and independen t exercise w need not say that such a measure cannot i expected to emanate from Whi g brains Ti party is pre-eminently the representativfl S class as opposed to popular government , 5 if left to the devices of their own im « gin a ? ' we should most likely have a measure ?' very reverse iu all respects of what it Om I to be . But there is one characteristic of ^ party which never alters . It is very « sni , n able . ' Let but Lord John Russell and p " coadjutors distinctly understand that ti aro fifty , or sixty , or eighty Me mbers in l \ House of Commons who aro prepared t make an earnest and an uncoinproinj ,, ; stand in favour of the measure wh ^ h may receive the sanction of tij 0 j aj . u amount of opinion out of doors , atid w ^ mi venture to predict that he will yi ^ * * , popular will thus expressed and fovmfo . M , represented . 1 '
For , in this case , fifty or sixty dok > rrnjn a members can enforce what terms ' they piea They will hold the balance between the ' t » " greatparties who have been accustomed to sha ° between them , alternately , the power , p atrol age , and influence of Government , [ fj , / will , therefore , hold in their hands the po \ Vp of making and unmaking Ministries , them * they may not be aWo to , form a Crovcuimetif themselves ; and the knowledge that they ai 0 prepared to exercise that power , will m ake th © Whigs wonderfully docile and submissive . The popular party and its representatives ought never to forget that the Suffrage qucstiou stands in a very different position now to wW
it did twenty years ago . The old Parliamentary Constitution of this country was , to a certain extent , venerable from its age , andiiad secured a kind of immunity from prescription bn $ tradition . It was not at all unnatural tli ^ largo and influential sections of the pcop ' e Bhould look upon a change "with dread— . \ qj so much on account of what it actually dy jib . of what it might , do . Twenty years' expel nonce has demonstrated the baseless Datura of the alarm they really felt ; while the wido diffusion of knowledge among all clashes of the population , conjoined with a corresponding improvement of their habits , are tho Lest pos ° sible justification of a still further extension and guarantee of its beneficial results .
Those facts have not been unuoted Lv tho Conservative party ; and consequentl y au im . provement and extension of our reprcscntatiro system will not receive from that powerful party the same obstinate , indiscriminate , unreasoning opposition the Reform Bill of 1831 had to encounter . On the contrary , its more enlightened members perceive that tho essential and permanent interests of the classes to which they belong , c ; m ho best conserved by wise and timely concessions to popular opinion , by identifying themselves in short with the people , and , as a consequence , tho Whigs will have to bid high , if they mean to maintain place aud power .
But , after all , the main motive power must come from the people themselves ; and no Bur tion of the people can make themselves so effectively felt on this question , as to the two great counties of Lancashire and Yorkshire . They return a largo number of members professtag liberal principles . If the approaching conference does its duty , it will place upon theso members the responsibility 01 working
together as a well organised body ^ for the success of the measure it may decide in favour ofl In Mr . Cobden for Yorkshire , and Mr . BitiGiix for Lancashire , they have two Parliamentary leaders of weight and influence within the House . Backed by popular opinion outside Parliament , they have already won ono great victory—tho prestige of triumph still attaches itself to their names , "Wh y shonld they not win a greater ?
We perceive that Mr . W . J . Fox is doing ' yeoman ' s service' in the cause in the north The ' Daily News' of Thursday contains four columns of a speech delivered by him to tria Oldluim constituents , vbicli embodies a review of the p / sst session , far superior to any of Lord lA'NDHUttST ' s or Mr . Disiiaeli ' s sessiona critiques , not only as to the variety of the topics haudled , and the vigour aud eloquence which pervaded the entire address , but also for the masterly , statesmanlike , aud comprehensive view taken of our present position aad future prospects . Speaking of tho new Reform Bill , Air . Fox said , —
Wo want something that will last , something founded on a comprehensive and enduring basis . We want , at any rate , something that shall completely come up to that motion of Mr Hume ' s which mutes so many different classes of reformers , and we shall not complain it it goes somewhat beyond that . That is the spirit in which the Manchester Conference should conduct their deliberations
—that the spirit in which they should instruct their representatives—that the spirit inwlucK these representatives should organise them * selves into a compact and powerful Parliamentary Party . At present , the so-callfll ' Radical party in the House of Commons is a mere nullity . It comprises within Us ratiki men of great ability , experience , information , and eloquence . But these qualifications ave
all nullified by the fatal want of union and organization . It is a mere rope of saml . Al « most every one of it * members 1 ms a hobby of his own ; and though once or twice i » a session they may be found altogether ii the same lobby on a division , the moment it lS over each marches off his separate way w ' ^' out any thought of acting iu conceit aao under proper discipline , fi ? r the attainment oi a general good and u common end . insane
It is high time that this suicidal and Conduct were put a stop to . Radical' Mewbars of Parliament must be made to pevwi ™ that they hold their seats not for the grat _ ncation « t' their own personal tlesire to ilisW * gii ' ish themselves , or for the purjtuse « t delivering once or twice ; i year a harangue on a favourite subject , but as a trust for the **! - fare and progress of the whole people . M . ' bined action is perfectly compatible fx ™ independence of character , and the liicni ' jers ' below the gangway ' must submit t 0 ' [* drilled , unless they mean to be Lord JoHSs accomplices in palming otf a sham upon l "

I KQ £ SWIi IN ENGLAND . I Not the least valuable of Louis Kossutii ' s a services to the cause of popular government * will bo his visit to our shores . His admirable 1 aud masterly speeches , reported verbatim in e the columns of the only English newspaper ,. p ermitted to circulate with any degree of r freedom on tho Continent , strike the kuell of ' i despotism iu every country that now groaiiB If under its accursed sway in Europe . We for' ¦ give the Times' all its slanders , all its * calumnies and abuse , in consideration of that ? ' . ' great fact . ' The folly , the palpable aelfd contradictions , the perversions of history , and > " tho miserable attempts at ridicule -which n make up the staple of its leading articles ) ' d might have had some influence not only on e- , the Continent but at home , had the Times ' ° l burked Kossuth ' s speeches as it did the m Westminster meeting to prepare for his j £ triumphant reception . But its 'thunder ' U i is harmless beside tho simple , forcible , aud yei truly eloquent addrcBseB of the illustrious hi Magyar .
