On his right Sir John Malcolm, and to the left. his Grace the Duke of Wellington, in his uniform as Colonel of the Royal Regi ment of Artillery, and wearing the StaT of the Bath. • On the removal of- the cloth "The Wyteitandat's Gnm" was wng by Messrs. Leese, Termite, Golden, Broadhurst, and Taylor, Who, during the course Of the evening, entertained the company With mental catches and glees. Atter the customary loyal toasts, the CHAIRMAN laid, he now tame to the more immediate cause for which they were honoured by the presence of this ifis languished company. It was to congratulate, en bis Ilepointment m the Government of Bombay, one whose 'diplomatic and military services tOthe Company bad low raised him tp one of the highest Sitaations . whigh 'hey had it in their power to bestow. Of his merits, et *vilifications, and talents, more deed not be Said then his appointment of itself would convey. " The health of Sir John Malcolm, and success to his Govern. went of Bumbay."—(Great applause). • Sir JOHN •b/lALcoLm returned his thanks for the kind reception- his name had just met with. It might perhaps Better answer his pttrpose, if he said but a few Mardi; but his heart was too full, and his feelings too strong to be denied utterance. It was true that be had.been sent dui to India almost a child, and his only aim was, how best to discharge his duties 'both to the Company . and his native land. It had been his lot to see nearly all the great and remarkable events which had occurred there. during the last 36 years, and the only feeling he now entertained, when he looked back and saw how little he had k been able to perform in their service, was 'wonder at the confidence they had bestowed on hira-ra confi . dence which he would not venture to place in himself.. But, though he hesitated m , t to undertake the ardent duties the Company had been that day pleased to make in;, yet they must not expect ought more from him than an ardent zeal in their service... -(Hear.) When he Looked mound and saw so many distinguished ihdivi du Is, several of them his earliest and best trieras, he telt an accumulatioo of motives to induce him to be a true and faithful servant. He could not be'p iematkiog that the day of his appointment should be the 43d atilt . versary of one of the most celebrated battles ifs Indian history (the name did not reach ns). • But there were other inducements. He should never forget that eight yeats since, the Right Hon. Gent. at the head Of the Ad 'Ministration of Great Britain had recommended 'him to the Ea stlndia Company, (or a situation of a nature and duties similar to those be hid now to fulfil. To have de served the notice of .hits Whose Vela and distingnsted station was even' less than the splendour of his talents and the ahne st cmuipoteuce of his mind, was Wri incen tive for. honourable exertion of no weak nat ts-.( Hear.) lie 'Could cot forget, that in India he had become se simainted witinhat great Min *lto ripreseditd Iris Sore: reign in the sister island, and multr whisiepiternal kire and wire councils be bad been nurtured; and be his assured. if that illustrious Nobleman - could have stpiai*d himself floM his high office, he would have atleidihtto tongs atuhte his humble pupil op 'this honours be now. injoyeth--(11ear). Under Lord Wellesley he bad been associated with many friends wow around him, and particularly with that great and Noble Friend near him (turning to the Duke of Wellington) in ties of friendship. 'which had ever since zemained without change, and would, he hoped, continue unchangeable. He had been associated with that great man*Welten he hid the foum dation of his futute glory, and already established for himself a fame which only himself had since excelled. - , -(Louthapithuse). It was most pleasing to him, on such a delightful occasion as the present, to see those individuals around him. The gratitude he felt for tinaninious manner in which distinction had been conferred upon him by the Board of Directors, he could pot express; it would prove a solace to his mind at rliods, and under circumstances, when it would be ghost requitel ; and (concluded Sir John) is I trust I shall not fail in fulfilling the anticipations which you have former—(Loud cheers). The CHAIRMAN—In thing to propose " The health 91 - his flajes:y's Ministers,*l - haye only to express that hope .whir!? the Wilk so generally entertain, that their etninent talents, unwearied seal, and ability, will gain for them the high reward which their services to the country must entitle them tn. With much satisfaction propose " The health oithe Right Hon. George Can ning, and the rest- of his Majesty's Ministers."—(Tre mendous cheering for several minutes ; during the con tinuance of which)— Mr. CAN NING . rose, and spoke to the following pnr • poi t :—M r. Cha4man, on behalf of my colleagues and niyse/lb-Wborn you have associated in the toast in:* drankifallow me to thank this company for the Manner in which it has been received. We feel that we deserve no suppott, and we claim none, but in so far as our ex estionstpay contribute to the general advantage and happlbeis Of the. piople—(Cheers). We seek no aid but as wenshall be Irrimd to deset re it. Gentlemen, there is no body of Mei - in the country from whom such a com tiliment as you have now bestowed could come to us with greater welcome. I believe there is no example in the history of the world, on the one hand, of such a' ' (simony as that which your Chairman represents, and nu the other, cf 'tan etti.equal and tencarrent authori ties, which for so loog a series of years have condi:aid writuut shock or conflet the Administration. of, I bad almost said, So tremendous an empire. Gentlemen, the eaten[ of the Vast empire; over which the East India company mote iittmediately presides, is as fearful as it is extraordinary, and it is a disproof of the common adage, that little wisdom is required for governing man kind, to consider how such a machine, if I may use the ea pression, as 100,000,000 of souls is kept together with so mach comparative happiness, and so little confusion. But, Gentlemen, the greatness of this empire has had its natural effect ; for I will venture to say, there canno be found in the liistory of Europe, the existence of any monarchy, which within a given time hat pro doted so many men of the first talen's in civil and military life as India ha,t,first trained for herself, and then given to4heir native country......(lisitd cheers). —lf the . cdtriplirdent to his Majesty's ItYinisters be pleasing from the East India :Company, it is doubly sd on this °cession, when that Company con curs with his Majesty's Gavernment.ln sending ;back to India a man whom you have brought : home for a time, that he might point to the deeds he had "dime •in your service, and that wisely remembering ma ytiti might. restore •him with 'power and the opportunity which will tend alike to the completion of your advan tage, and hit own reputation—(Heat.) It is perfectly true, as the gallant Officer has himself. stated, that eight years ago 1 recommended to yOu - r notice—not know ledge, for that would haee.been supetfluout —three in dividoils.then in your service, Whose respective claims, • although differing and of various sorts, were yet so 'equally valuable, that it became a task of difficultyto select from them—l mean Mr. Elphinstone, Sir Thomas Munro, and Sir John Malcolm. B 7 accident rather than preference, the former Gentlemen were then • ap pointed; but if Sir John Malcolm has beentehind them in opportunity and time, he will, ',trust, prove ulti mately, equal to. them in the advantages which this Company shall derive frOsnlis services 7 -Apleuse.) • The next toast was Tlre Right Ilon. diaAfts'yloa, the of Cmtraul for tie Alfalrust ftM " • . . • Mr. Wyatt expressed his thanks for 'the approbation rendered by the Company at the petformance of his duties. Thote duties, thofighleihre of thear ate of an invidious nature, were mixed *iilr others of a :Most agreeable description. It was impossible to perute the records achieved by ilia Conip - any'a servants in India, tad not find reason to glory in the oames-Of Britain. He would congratulate Sir John Malcolm, not so much on his account, but for the sake of India and his native land; on the eitended sphere about to be given for , his usefulness. Mr. Wynn concloded by• drink ing the health of -the Chairman; who briefly 'acknowledged die com pliment. .

The appellant, who is called upon tole pleadings the spools of Robert Jollie, surgeon, of Leith Walk, was married to that Gentleman in the inontivof June, 1818. In March, 1818. the respondent, who alleges that he .had been married to the appellant preticithly to her Marriage with Mr. Jollie, instituted against hec in the Consistorial conic an, action of -declarator of mar riage. The Consistorial Court, upon . a hearingtof the whole case, declared the appellant was the lawful wife of the respondent. From_ this interlocutor an appeal was broOght before the Court of Session s which affirmed•the judgment of the Court below. The Lady, who declares . that" she stands at this momerit the mauled Wife of Mr. Jollie, and the mother of the children begotten and born on the faith of a lawful marriage," has appealed once more from the decision against her. The appeal is rested upon the ground, a very singislar one, ,that parties married in Scotland may, after the performance. 'of the ceremony, adopt certain measurss whereby they could onnagrry blemselves. • - • • Dr. JENNEn appeared for the appellant, and Dr: Lusa NOTON for the teipondrnt. The .Earl of &Doe said, that as the case was (meld the greatest importance, he should wish to know *he 'thee an notice of these proceedings had been given to the second husband, Mr. Jollie?

The plaintiff tembined in Greece for some ti m e, and collected the ilifordiktion and facts which he had since piblished in . hii 460, entitled" The Last Da f Lard Byron." Mr. Hunt, Days o the defendant, thought proper in alluCting . to that book,to make the most disgraceful attack on the author, which the Jury would find was without provocation. Captain Robert Ramsay being examined, deposed, that he had been induced to break off a negotiation with the plaintiff for sending him in an Insportaiit ca pacity to Buenoi Ayres, io consequence of the ankles, complained of. The defendant pleaded a justteation, and his Coun sel called several witnesses, the object of whose evidence I.was, to show that the plaintiff was what the defendant bad, repotted him to be, 'a person of hiniself incapable of writing the work in . question, and - that he was addic ted to habits of inebtiety.
