It is necessary that every democraUepeat unceasingly tl e pioples «• liberty can only come to you lusou . uch us you Ime the understanding of liberty , and this undei standing , this conscience , you ca : i conquer only by action . There is no divine right " of man-king or people kiu « r . Tour destinies ate in your own bands . The world expect e .

Care for the honour , care for the duty , the mission of Frauce . Every duty fulfilled will give you one of the rights which you now are claSmuu ' , an « l which they contest with ' you !
It is necessary that the French , worthy of their name , should have enough of energy—enough of loyalty—enough of love in their . soul , to say to their brothers in other counties , " France has heretofore helped you , she now has need of your help . It was because of our fathers' faith in themselves tbat no efforts of the enemy could break our unity or efface our nationality . Have faith in yourselves .

ANNIVERSARY OF THE BIRTHDAY OF ilAXIMILLIAN ROBESPIERRE . A public Tea Party and Musical Soiree , to celebrate tbis event , was held on Wednesday evening , at the Eclectic Institution , Denmark-street , Soho . Among tlie guests present «< -re M . Cabet , M . Greppo , and M . Bernard , members of the late Freuch Assembly ; the late Editor of the Popuhire , and other friends . Letters of apology were read from Mr , Reynolds , and others . The Hall was crovsded ta excess . Mr . O'Brien * presided as Chairman . Mr . Murray proposed the first toast— "The Sovereignty of the People ; may they soon conquer the plenitude of their rizhts , political , moral ; and social , in all countries . " . Mr . Bezer responded to the toast , and eulogised the conduct of their French guests , who had not only propounded this sentiment , but had likewise endeavoured to reduce it to practice .
Mr . 0 Briex proposed- " The Immorfal Memory of the illustriousMaximillian Robespierre ; may his character never want defenders against the calumnies ' of prejudiced and class-made historians ; and may the Dmocratic leaders of the people ever aspire toiraita e his incorruptibility and devotedness to the cause of humanity , and to take , as the text of their political teaching , his sublime and comprehensive declaration of the rights of man . " Twenty vears ago when he first dre * the veil from the character of Robespierre , he was assailed with virulence by all parties , even by those professing Democracy . The cas « was similar in
France . It was with great difficulty that he had procured anything like correct evidence relative to his character Baunaroui , who bad lived on terms of intimacy with Rol bespierre . alone vindicated his fame . Their guest , M Cabet , m his fourth volume of the " History of tbe Revolution " had , he was proud to say , not only done justice to his character , but also to that of his cowardly murderers . Robespierre was the first man who , taught that contempt for vice and crime should be substitnted for con . tempt of misfortune , and Jhat the greatness of man was superior to the littleness of the great . M . O'Brien , during a long address , was rapturously applauded .
M . Cabet responded to the sentiment , and expressed his admiration of the much calumniated character of Robespierre , whom he designated as the greatest philosopher , moralist , and lover of mankind , which the French revolution had pro . dn . ced . It was Ms love for the poor and the oppressed which raised the malice of his opponents , and Caused them not to be content with destroying him and tbe revolution , but to endeavour to kill him for all future time . Robespierre and Napoleon were the two stars of the revolution . The star of Napoleon had long been in the ascendant , but it would wane weaker and weaker until it set in blood and mist , whilst that of ltibespierre would everv day increase in beauty and resplendency . ^ , 5 f ; f'T » E" ? res P ° n ' d to the sentiment of " the Solingof nations " ' "" ° Uly means to achieTe tlie frater
Mr Joxes responded to the sentiment of " tbe People ' s Charter-may it speedily become tbe law of the land * Tho nest sentiment- " Success to the Eclectic Institution—and may similar institutions abound tbrouchout the country , &c .

MOXDAY , Aprilo . HOUSE OF LOUDS—Waris Avi .-Lord Elienbokotjgh called the attention of the house to the war which we had just commenced with the King of Ava , and which ho remarked might prove more serious than some persons imagined . The climate of the Burmese empire was most unhealthy , and in some respects we were in a better condition to carry on hostilities than in tbe former Burmese war , yet the removal of the troops necessary for the struggle would lay bare districts of our Indian empire from which thry could ill be spared . ( Hear , hear . ) After entering fully into the subject in a speech of considerable length , the noMe Lord deprecated auy extension of our possessions on the side of Burnmh , and ' eoneludcd by moving for certain papors relating to the war .
The Earl of Derby , assured Lord Ellenborough that no one could be more anxious than the government to bring the war with Ava to a speedy termination . ( Hear , hear . ) Every means had been taken by the Governor-General to avoid hostilities , and now tbat we wer « unfortunately engaged in them , there was sood reason to hope that they would not bfi of a protracted character . ( Hear , hear . ) For his own part , he should regard any large annexation of territory on the Bide of Ava as inconvenient and disastrous , and as far as the papers were concerned , all that could he produced without injury to the public service should be kid before the House .
Foreign Refugees . —Lord Beacmost broug ht forward the question of the foreign refugees in this country , and trusted that the government would adopt the principles laid down by Lord Granville , and that it would refuse to play the part of an eavesdropper , dogging the heels of every foreigner who arrived in this country , and departing from that hospitality which England had ever Btiown towards unfortunateexi ! e 3 . ( Hear , hear . ) The noble Lord also entered into the case of the missionaries recently expelled from Austria , and concluded by moving for papers telatin s to that expulsion . The Earl of Maimesburt entered into explanations connected with his recent despatches to Prino Schwarzenborg ; and with regard to tho foreign refugees ; declared that tho hospitality of England should not be denied them so long as they proved themselves worthy of it . ( Hear , hear . )
After some observations from Lord Granville with regard to the correspondence which bad passed between himself and the Austrian Government , Lord Beaumont withdrew his motion . Some Other business was then despatched , and their lordsl . ips adjourned . HOUSE OF COMMONS . —In reply to Mr . Mangles , Sir J . Pakisgion said , it was his intention early after Easter to move for leave to bring in a bill to confer representative institutions upon tho colonists of New Zealand . The CiiAXCELioit of the Exchequer gaid he proposed to
suhmit his financial statement to the house on the lOlh mst . The Militia Fhaxchise . —Colonel Roxhily wished to put a question to the rig ht lion , gentleman as Secretary of State . On Friday night the right lion , gentleman gave notice of his intention to insert a clause in the Militia Bill , giving to any person who had served for two years in tho militia the ri . lit of voting in tho counties . The question which ho had to ask the right hon . gentleman was whether he intended extending the privilege proposed to be given under the terms of this motion to persons serving in the militia , to persons serving in the other branches of the service ?
Mr . Walfole said he had intended , even if the hon . gentleman had not put the question to him , to have taken an opportunity of xtatinsr to the house that the notice which ho had given on the subject of the franchise in connexion with the Militia Bill , had been given rather too hastily . ( Laughter . ) The pro ; osition in question , which emanated from himself , he thought was a good one , ft > r three reasons . The first wns , that he considered it would induce respect able persons to volunteer to enrol themselves in the militia ; secondly , to induce a continuance of residence , so that volunteers might be ascertained from year to year ; and the third reason was that he looked upon this right as a reward for public service . ( IIe ; ir . ) Since he made the proposal to the house he had had a consultation with his collea mips , and they felt that there were so many difficulties
and obstacles in connexion with the proposal , that lie , as he said before , intended , even if the question had not been put to him by the hon . and gallant member , to have stated to the house that he did not intend to urcss his notice to introduce the clause in reference to the Militia Bill . Perhaps he might be permitted to add , in reply to the question put by tbe hon . and gallant gentleman , that in his opinion there was little if any analogy betvreen a force raised as a militia , the members of which were , during the greater part of the year , enjoying the privileges of citizens here , and soldiers and sailors of the army and navy , who remain constantl y under the control of iheir superior officers . He now gave notice that it was not bis intention to persevere in the notice referred to as regards tho intended clause in tlie Militia BUI .
Ministerial Explanations . —Upon the question of going into Committee of Supply , Mr . Osborxb said , he thought it was incumbent upon some member of the house to draw attention to the ano . malous state of affairs , in the absence of more distinct details than had yet been given of the plans and policy of the EOTernment . ( Hear , tear . ) He called upon the Chancellor of the Exchequer to afford some more clear and distinct ideas upon this subject than the vague declarations hitherto made . ( Hear , hear . ) The country had no guarantee what were the measures which the government might not think " indispensable for the good government of the country . " ( Laughter . ) The course they were pursuing , in endeavouring to evade tbis question , was not one which the people would think worthy of a British ministry . ( Hearhear . )
, Lord J . Man . vers said tbat the Chancellor of the Exchequer bad repeatedly and explicitly declared the course which the government intended to pursue , and there was no discrepancy between his explanations and those made in another place . ( Cheers . ) If tho combined opposition thought they had a majority in that house , let them appeal to it , and the government would not shrink from tho issue of a general election , being anxious , as soon as the necessary business was transacted , to abide by that constitutional lest . ( Hear , hesr . ) So long , however , as the opposition did not exercise the power which they boasted they had , they ought , in justice to the country , to discontinue this course of interruption , and allow tbe necessary business of the country to be conducted . ( Cheers . )
Mr . Roebuck asked why the question was not brought to an issue by a direct vote of that house , ( near , hear . ) Ho charged the government with being in office on false pretences , and he took as an example the conduct of their leader in that house , who had fastened upon the late Sir Robert Peel , pursuing him nisht after niphl ; ho had as . sumed office as the great Protectionist chief , find he ( Mr . Roebuck ) appealed to the house whether there had ever been so remarkable a difference of opinion as that of Mr . Disraeli in opposition and in office . ( Hear , hear . ) He now said " the country will decide : " but what would it decide ?
The question of Protection 1 No ; it was to decide " unon our policy . " But what was that policy ? ( Cheers . ) Had Mr . Disraeli been thus vague in opposition ? Oh , no . He had ridden to power on the back of Protectionists , with the cry of" Protection , " but now it was " our general policy . " This shuffling course was highly mischievous for various reasons , and especially because it created in men ' s minds a low opinion of . tho morality of public men . ( Hear , hear . ) He called upon Lord John Russell , for his own character , and for the sake of the country , to bring this question to a settlement . ( Hear , hear . ) of the unfairness of these
Mr . Adberikt complained attacks upon the government , which were as inconsistent as they were groundless . ( Hear , hear . ) Mr . * C . Yiiaiers taxed tUe government with -want of candour and sincerity . The country , he observed , from one end to the ether , asked what they were going to do . Mr . Deslet wished to know what the other side wanted . The country was under no mistake as to what the government meant by their declarations in both houses . ( Cheers . ) They had changed . no principles ; butwhethera party could carry out all its principles depended , not upon themselves , but upon the country . ( Cheers . )
Mr . S . Herbert , with reference to the assertion that the progress of necessary business had been impeded by the interruptions of the opposition , observed that there Lad not been a single division adverse to the government , and that there never had been such an amount of public business transacted with so little criticism . ( Cheers . ) Ilewas , however , satisfied with tbe arrangement made , that tbe question of protection or Free Trade should be determined by an appeal to the country as soon as the state of public business would permit . ( Hear , hear . ) The honourable gentleman stated it was his firm intention to adhere to the policy of the late Sir Robert Peel , and to oppose the restoration of Protection in any form whatsoever .
Tho debate was kept up by Mr . Moore , Sir J . Tyrell , Mr . P . Howard , Mr . Ner cdegate , and Sir It . Ingbs , who lamented that public business should be delayed bv protracted disenssions . Iokian Islasds . —Mr . Homb called the attention of the house to tho conduct of Sir Henry Ward , the manner in which the elections were influenced by hie government , the suppression of the liberty of tbe press , and the number of persons banished without trial . . He expressed a hope that an end would be put to these tyrannical proceedings , and that the people would bo permitted to enjoy some of the benefits of the constitution thev were promised . ( Hear , hear . ) ' V '
Sir J . Pakisgtos said , that , although he was not prepared tojustify in every particular every act of Sir Henry Ward , he would say that he had done his best to preserve the just authority of the- crown under circumstances of great difficulty and embarrassment . ( Hear , hear . ) He dotailed tbe facts of several cases to which Mr . Hume had alluded , and in reply to the call made by him upon the present government to Sir Henry Ward , said such was not the intention of Her Majesty ' s government , who considered that Sir Henry had endeavoured honeBtly to do his duty . ( Hear , hear . )
Mr . F . Peei said , having paid much attention to the subject , be was of opinion tbat Sir Henry Ward had entitled bimeelf to the gratitude of the Ionian people , and to the approbation of that house ; that it was owing to the energy and ability of his administration tbat peaco and order bad been preserved in Cephalonia in 1849 . Mr . Peel entered into a vindication of Sir H . Ward ' s conduct and general policy , and observed that , though from 1803 to lS 4 S the Ioniau people did not « njoy the full measure of independence and constitutional government which had been guaranteed to them , in 1849 very great and radical reforms had been carried out in the islands . ¦ The house then resolved itself into a Committeo of Supply . . Kaffir Wab . —Mr . 0 . A . Hamiitojj moved a voto of £ 460 , 000 for tbe Kaffir war . Sir Yf . Moibbwobih , not meaning to oppose the vote .

observed ihat there bad been a gre ; it » nd increasing military expenditure incurred on account of South Africa , tho average annual amount in the three years ending in 1850 having been three times that of tho three years ending 183 G . ( Hear , hear . ) He reviowed the past frontier policy at the Cape of Good Hope , and , with reference to the future , observed that to maintain our present extended territory no fewer than 7 000 troops would be required- ( hear , hvarj—whereas if the colonists were left to manage their own affairs , and to defend their own territory , our military expenditure for South Africa might be reduced to the cost of the garrison of Cape Town . ([ Tear , he ; ir . ) ™ ^ u- i i . .. ... * ..- ^ in n * nninnii mili-
Mr . Gladstone took a similar view of the Cape frontier policy , the evils of which he believed lay in the false assumption that tbe regulation of our relations between the Eiv oj-ean colonists and the barbarous natives of Strath Africa was a matter to be settled by gentlemen sitting in Downinjr-street . ( Hear , hear . ) It was not so with tho first settlers in America , who had barbarous nations to deal with , and who saved this country from burdens , whilst they regulated their relations better . ( Hear , hear . ) He wUhed to see the centre of responsibility carried back to tho place whence it ought never to have been removed . Let the question of frontier policy be a local question . ( Hear , hear . )
Lord J . Russell thought Mr . Gladstone hnd not contributed much to tbe solution of this difficult question , which , in the 19 th century , was very different from what it was in North America , in tho 17 th . " ( Hear , hear . ) At the Cape of Good Hope the white population was co pnratirely small , and not strong enough to drive back the Kaffirs , and it would not be satisfactory to the country to withdraw our troops , and leave the settlers with an insufficient protection . ( Hear , hear . ) The policy to be pursued in futuro must be that , of neither abandoning the settlers on the one h-ind , nor , on the other , keeping up an immense frontier by a military force paid by this country . ( Hear , hear . ) Sir J . Paki . vgton said the question of boundary policy in South Africa was one of the greatest possible practical difficulty , and it w ; is tho duty of her Majesty ' s government to exercise the utmost care and caution before they gave ant pledgo upon tho subject , which had been greatly , complicated by recent events . Their best attention would be
given to it ; but they were bound to wait for the completion of the war , and of tho free institutions which wove about to be established , and then they hoped to be ablo to adopt a policy that would impart to the colonists the blessings of peace without impairing the honour of the Crown . ( Hear , hoar . ) Mr . Roebuck warned the government that if the colonists obtained the power of managing their ; own affairs , they must be prepared for one inevitable consequence—the extermination of the aborigines . Mr . Addeiuey made a few general remarks upon preceding speeches , observing that , unless the instructions given to Governor Cathcart were qualified by the present government , England would have to bear the expense of another Kaffir war . Col . Thompson animndvertod * upon tho indignities which had been offered to the Kaffir chiefs .
air . F . Peel , adverting to the manner in which Eavl Grey s name had been held up , he said , in a most unfavourable light , declared that when Mr . Adderloy brought forward the menaced motion he shonld prepare to enter upon a full defence of the course pursued by Lord Grey , particularly with reference to tho despatch in which Sir H Smith had been irformed of his recall , He admitted that large additions of territory had been made to the colony , and when tho opportunity offered he would show that these territorial acquisitions had not been made in pursuit of any policy of our own , but in the interest of tho colony . Mr . II . Dkommosd , in warm terms , defended Mr . n . hmith , Mnd censured with equal warmth the despatch of Earl Grey .
Lord J . Rcsskll justified the call of Sir II . Smith , which the Cabinet , ho said , had unanimously concurred in , bolieving that lie had been misled by his own s-anouine views of his operations . A vote was then agreed to . After some other business tho house ng . iin rent into committee upon the Corrupt Practices at Elections Bill , the remaining clauses of which were a « reod to . The other business having been disposed of the houso adjourned at twenty minutes past one o ' clock , TUESDAY , Ami , 0 , HOUSE OF LORDS .-Tbe Duke of NoTntmnBittAND , staled , m reply to Lord Monteag ' e ; that the government had received no official account from Plymouth as to tho loss of tlie Birlcenhead steam-frigate . After some observations from Lord Elj / esbobougii , who spoke , in terms of reprehension of tho way in which official secrets were betrayed in India ,
The Eavl of Derby moved that the houso at its rising should adjourn until the 19 th inst . The motion was agreed to , and their lordships adjourned accordingly umil Monday week . HOUSE OP . COMMONS . —Mr . M . Gibson inquired whether the government intended to take any steps to place the relations between this country and the Brazils on a more satisfactory footing , and whether they contemplated any result from the joint action of tho governments of Prance and England with reference to the free , navigation of the internal water communication connected with the River Plate . The Chancellor of the Exchequer replied that Sir C . Hotham , on the part of her Majesty , in conjunction with the Chevalier de St . George , would proceed on the 16 th upon a visit of friendly communication and explanation to Ilio , and it was hoped that tho mission would succeed in obtaining tho free navi gation of the river for all countries .
. Mr . Gibson wished for more specific information retpecting the relations between Great Britain and tho Brazils ; but The Chancellor of the Exchequer thought he had given a sufficient answer .
Mr . G . Thompson moved that the house do go into committee to consider the expediency of introducing a bill for establishing an office for tho benefit of the ballast-heavers of tho port of London . Mr . Henley did not offer any opposition to this first stage of the measure , the details of which ho ' had not seen ; but there were , he observed , difficulties in its way . . amongst which was its tendency to create another monopoly . Mr . Labotjcherk agreed that the houso ought to legislate with great jealousy and caution upon these subjects , since it was against principle , and ho recommended that the matter should be previously inquired into beforo a select committee .
After some discussion , in which Mr . Gladstone suggested that the appointment of a select committee ehould precede tho introduction of tho bill , and Lord J . Manners that after the second reading the bill should bo referred to a select committeo , the motion was agreed to , and the house , in committeo , . adopted a resolution that leave be obtained to brins in a bill which was granted . Mr . G . A . Hamilton obtained leave to bring in a bill to continue the exemption of stock in trade from liability to be rated to the poor , and a bill to continue and amend the laws relating to loan societies . The house then went into committeo upon the County Courts' Further Extension Bill ; but , after a good deal of discussion as to tho expediency of going on with this bill pending the expected measure for tho lteform of the Court of Chancery , it was determined that the Chairman should report progress , with a view to reprinting the bill with its amendments .
The report of the Committee of Supply was brought up and agreed to . The house went into committee on the Suitors in Chancery Relief Bill , but was counted out . and adjourned at half-past seven o ' clock until Monday , the 10 th .
( From our Second Edition of last week . ) FRIDAY April 2 . HOUSE OP LORDS .-The Earl of Derby moved for the appointment of a select committee to inquire into the operation of tho act of 3 rd and 4 th of William IV ., cap . 85 , for the better government of her Majesty ' s Indian territories , and to report their observations thereon . The noble earl gave a rapid sketch of tho history , and an explanation of the constitution , of the East Indian Company , nnd adverted to various points which lie thought would deserve the calm and mature considor / ition of the committee previous to the renewal of the expiring charter , lho karl of EtLENnoRouou pointed out many alterations which ought to bo made in tho Indian Board , and suggested Mint the patronage of the company should he diminished by transferring tbe chief appointments from the board to the government . The motion was then agrcod to . In reply to a question from the Earl of Albemarle

dissolution , and to call the new parliament together this year under circumstances which would give fu . Il opportunity for the parliament to decide on the character and the policy of the present government . Mr . Hume suggested that the explanation wonld be moro satisfactory if the measures it was intended to proceed with in the present parliament were stated . Mr . T . Duscombe moved , pursuant to notice , that a writ issue for filling up the vacant aeat for Harwich . Mr . BiiuvBWB interposed . in amendment for suspending the writ during the present parliament , which was supported by Mr . Bright , Sir De L . Evans , and Mr . Hume . Lonl J .

The Attorney-General , Mr . Newdegate , Mr . My Seymcv , Mr . Roebuck , and Mr . Anstey , supported the original motion , which was ultimately carried without a division . On the order of the day for the second reading of tho Repayment of Advances Acts Amendment ( Ireland ) Bill , Mr Pukncii moved as an amendment that the bill be read a second time that day six months . During the discussion on the subject , some remarks made by Mr . Grattan in the absence of Mr . Anstey , having been resented by the latter gentleman on his return , in terms which caused Mr . Grattan to quit the house abruptly , the
interposition of the Speaker was invoked . Mr . Anstey having declared that do did not intend to be personally offensive to any man , and Mr . Grattan ( who had in the meantime returned to his place ) considering himself necessarily included in this disavowal , the affair ended . Tho Chancellor of tho Exchequer expressed his surprise that a . measure of lenieicy like this should be opposed liy an Irish county member . It was a bill prepared by the late Government , but one which ho thought just and wise , und kind and considerate ; and ho had theroforo adopted it .
Some further discussion ensued , after which the amendment of Mr . French was negatived without a division , and the bill was read a second time . Tho remainder of the evening was occupied chiefly in discussing the clauses in committee of the Corrupt Practices at Elections Bill .

Calamitous Occurrence at a 1 ? ire . —Yesterday morning a very alarming fire broke out about three o ' clock , on the premises of Mr . Benjamin Oakey , of 14 , Moor-street , Seven-dials , which it is feared will be attended with serious results to several persons . The inmates of the house had gone to bed about Ualf-pivst one o'clock , and ivbout three o ' clock they were all nearly suffocated in their beds by a dense smoke , which came from below . Mr . Oakey , with his wife and child , were in bed , and finding all attempts to escape by the stairs useless , Mr . Oakey took the child in his arms , and leaped from tho second-floor window . Mrs , Oakey followed him . One of tho servants , named Ellen
Coghlan , and a Pole named Kasdegan , who lodged in tho house , did the samo . Another servant followed him in the frightful leap , and was not at all injured , but the rest were taken to the Charing Cross Hospital , where it was found that Mr . Oakey had a very severe scalp wound , besides other injuries , which render his case a very dangerous one . His wife had fractured one of the bones of her ancle ; and Kasdcgan had a comminuted fracture of the thigh , with other mischief not yet ascertained . The child nnd servant were but little injured , a most entraordinary fact , when it is considered the dangerous escape that had been made . It is not clearly ascertained how the fire originated , but no great damage was done to the property .
