Early in the morning the following notice was yen' generally eircillated : The Stewards of Ile Diluter to be given at the Assembly Roost to-day beg to annouece that his Royal Highness the Dukeof Susses hes signified his desire that the Dinner Amid be open to any Gentleman who may wish to attend." Shortly alter four o'clock the large room at the Arrernbly-hourie began to 611, and soon after five his Royal Highness entered the room, preceded by the Gentlemen of the Committee of the Literary and Philosophies!

The CHAIRMAN then rose end said, that it would probably be expected from him, and in- , deed custom would seem to demand, that he should occupy some lime in introducing the toast he was about to give; but he felt that he should do more justice to his feelings, and to the feelings of the compaay present, than by any language that he d, by at once naming his Royal Higbuess the eke of Sussee...-(Load and repeated cheers.). — et he did not feel that silence was the way to she. their feelings when they had the honour of to illustrious a visitor, a Prince of the House of Brunswick. He would not insult their ears by the language of flattery. but leave to their own hearts to judge, when he stated, that his Royal Highness Was a patron of every virtue—(Cheers)—reisowned for benevolence and kindness of heart—(Cheers) — a supporter of all institutions for the promotion of knowledge, and of the interests of the poor and the wretched.—(Loud and repeated ciseers.)— Words failed him ; indeed it was impossible to convey the respect lie felt ; Ire should therefore give ” The health of Isis Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex"--(Loud applause)—amidst which his Royal Highness rose, and as soon as silence could he obtained— His Royal Highness said, it was with peculiar emotions he rose to return his warmest thanks for the kind manner in which the company had received the mention of his name and had desuk his health. lie also felt deeply indebted to his friend, the Chairman, for the peculiar manner in which he had connected his name with the House of Branawiek. With that House this country bed • peculiar com pact—a compact for the maintenance of civil and religious liberty—and upon the foundation of this rompact he had laid down • rule for the guidance of his life, and which he begged to assure the company was congenial to all the Royal Family. In u company like the promo, it was only proper to go a certain length in expressing his opinions —(Cheers)—but certain he was that he had not, neither would be express as opinion contrary to the good sense of the company.—(Loud ebeers.)--;Prond he was of being of that family called the House of Brunswick, because, from the choice of this country, tbat family held its title to the Crown—(Cheery) —be therefore was not unlike to be loyal. He liked the principle that the King can do no wrong; he respected and liked the aristo cracy, as a link of the chain between the Sovereigu and the people ; but he disliked an Oligarchy,— (Loud applause,)—He was fond of the people, but he es. , not a republican. He had said this much, because he thought when they elected a freeman of Newcastle, they should know something of his principles. He assured them no one could feel the compliment more warmly, and no one's feelings were more alive to the respect of the people of this town and of the country at large. Shades of opinion there might be, hut it was for all to do plume, and justice he would do. After this blunt address, he would give, " The President of the Literary Rod Philosophical Society, and prosperity to the building whose foundation stone was laid Ibis day." Hi. Royal !Nimes' sat down amidst load burgss and cheering. C. W. Bina, in the name of the President (Sir John Swinburne), returned thanks, and ob served that lie hod the pleasure of knowing that the Society had been einineutly sucCessful *- encouragement of liberal opinions, and to.

They had felt some inconve niences, but these were now likely to be remedied, and he bailed the commencement of their mew building as highly auspicious. In conclusion, he begged to express the deep sense the Society felt of the honour the Prince bed conferred, and for his most condescending manner of conferring it. Sir C. Moocx then rose. He had no doubt but the company would fed the high honour conferred by his Royal Highness Laving led the masonic brethren that day ; it had ghetto how much lie valued nay society that had for its object the dif fusion of useful knowledge, which was the hest means of promoting the useful arts, end preserving peace. The worthy Chairman having enlarged so much, it was not necessary for him to speak of the blessings enjoyed under the House of Brunswick. Sir Chitties concluded by giving-- " Hi. Royal Highness the Graad Master of England, and his Masonic Bretbreu who have honoured us this day." Ks Royal Highness, as Grand Master of the most useful and respectable Society that existed, bru t d to return his thanks, stud trusted, without pnictig a fuhrouse compliment, that the members thereof would always be found ready to relieve the unfortunate, end to afford instruction to the igno rant. His Royal Highness thew alluded to the So. coy of Arts, of which he is the President, and de- *~- • - of F 1. el OP - -10 1, t, rit tot it. b. he rd he 11(1 hr r. 4 1 ur 111 1 ue rt. 1 he in to DII th be be of Ith Of MR he O. • - Jr she Sr. wog fir. for W t lag woo ' .

His Royal fligloresssoucluded by giving "The Health of the worthy Chairman." Sir M. W. RIDLEY said, when he had before, the honour of addressing them, he found dil6cultYl. but when he had to speak of himself he felt the dif-• ficulty increased. He did not feel himself entitled to the honour conferred upon him—He had done no more than an Englishman ought to do, in pro rooting general good feeling and harmony.. As it regarded the town of Newcastle, be felt more than common gratitude, when he recollected the honour that had been conferred on his grandfather and continued to hi tu.—((,lieess.) —Sir Matthew con cluded by giving the "Health of the new Free Bur gess of Newcastle, his Royal Hightiess the Duke of Suasez—though, from the iucouvenieuce he knew his Royal Highness felt, cud from the fatigue he had already undergone, he was inre the company would not trouble his Royal Highness to rise.— (Three cheers.) May we vier w,.nl nfriend nor a bottle to give him." His Royal Highness then rose for the purpose of giviog a toast, though be must be allowed to say that his friend, who was too independent to be bribyd himself, had tried to bribe him to Silence; he, however, as junior ;largess, felt it his duty to give— " The Mayor lied Caspoestim." The Mayor reformed his sincere thanks for the high honour coofeired ois the Corporatiou sad him self, and regretted he had not power to eapreso his feelings.—The brief remarks a the Mayor wore re ceived with loud and continued cheering. Tune—" What trill the people say!" ' The CHAIRMAN rose in call the attention of company to the health of an honoured friend. It had been intimated that they should only give th health of the Royal Family with three, but he had an opporinnity given him of proposing the health of Mr. Larnbton, with three times three. He did not wish to enter into the particulars of his political conduct, his opinions were well known to them, bat he gave him as the convoy of the Illustrious Visitor to the shores of the Tyne, and to a numerous and loyal people, who had testified a feeling that day which would follow his Royal Highness to John o'Groat's house.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. LAMBTON rose, and observed he was at sll times inadequate to receive those cordial marks of their approbation, but lie felt himself peculiarly so at the present time, from the indisposition under which he !sheared. He assured them no one felt more warmly the cordials approbation, not only of his friends but of those with whom he might differ in opinion. He was proud that an English Gen tleman could so conduct himself as to meet the ape probation of all. I-le felt that his tribute of re ' sped was due to the worthy Mayor, and heartily con. carted in the language of the Address, which moat truly described the principles which had governed his Royal Hhness, and will govern him to the end of his life. The Chairman had said lie (Mr. Lambton) had the honour of conv oying his Royal Highness from the South to the North : he pleaded guilty, and felt assured his Royal Highness would not be disappointed ; the immense numbers collected— the superior feeling—the warmth of disposition— the enthusiasm of manner, must have convinced his Royal Highness that he lived in the hearts of the people. This was the feeling he wished to see. His Royal Highness disregarded every aggrandize ment : his dearest reward was the welcome of a hardy, honest, cud enlightened race of men. The incidents of the last three days had unanswerably proved their attachment to the House of Brunswick as the protectors of our liberties. Mr. Lambkin concluded aneidst loud cheers.

The following speech mod toasts were omitted in the account of this entertainment given in our Paper of Tnesday last : " Sir Stephen May," threet . loiiih three—Tone, • The Sprig or Shillelagh." Sir STEPHEN MAT spoke to the following eff e ct : —With the moot intense feeling he rose to return thanks fur the honour that was conferred upon him. of the manner in which the toast was received he would have the most grateful and lasting recollec tion. however, he was not vain enough to arro gate to himself alone merit to entitle loin to such a mirk of their regard; he must attribute the greater part to his connexion with the family of the Noble Lord on whose account, and for whose success their gratulations were offered, and this splesolid entertainmeist prepared.

We regret to state that the system of nocturnal outrage, which so deeply disgraced • portion of this county during the last winter and spring. seems to be reviving. It is this day our painful duty to re cord two acts of atrocity committed by ruffians, acting under this abominable *yam, one of the leading regulations of which Is. that no person shall take ground or acquire property is any other place but that of his nativity I One night last week the tongue of a cow grazing on the lands of Killarney, near Thomestown, was cut out ; the poor owner's only crime wog, his having taken the diereses for the season. On Sunday night last, a house situated on the cross-road leading from Tinniness to Knock.. toplier, was set fire to and totally consumed. The fire could not have been accidental, as no person was then residing in it. It had been lately set, with a small farm adjoining it, by John Prim, Esq. of Kilree, to • man of the name of Deloughry, residing at Chapelizod, and who intended remov ing to it in a few days. Those who know the • • character which Mr. Prim hears amongst his te- • sante and neighbours will not for a moment conceive that this outrage was the consequence of personal • hostility or ill will to him, and Deloughry does not think that he has a personal enemy in the country. This criminal act, then, could have been committed only for the purpose of preventing hie occupying the farm which he had taken, and in pursuance of the code of laws framed by those midnight legis lators. It is conjectured that the act was com mitted at a very late hour, as Major Nicholson, with a party of the police. passed near the spot slier eleven o'clock, and it was subsequently passed by Lieutenant Prim and a party of the Mount Juliet volunteers, who patrolled that part of the country until four o'clock on Monday morning. • Having mentioned this corps, we think we could not be justified iu withholding our feeble but un qualified praise from a body of men who have been eminently useful in restriiining the disturbances in their neighbourhood. They form • corps of, we helieve, :Omni eighty young men, selected by the Earl of Carrick (their Commander), from his te nantry in and about Thomastown, and from the men employed in the Merino factory. Government provided them arms only; their clothing they sup ply themselves, and their appointments are the gifts of their noble and Fublic-apinsed Captain and his amiable Countess. They are equipped as light in -fitntry, and are as fine a' body of men (for their numbers) as can be seen in any service. IVe had the pleasure some time since of seeing them reviewed; and their discipline, and the facility and precision with which they executed some very difficult maiiretivres, would have done honour to veteran soldiers. His Lordship has been unremitting in his attention to the corps, and the men know how to value the honour of serving under a Nobleman who is heloved by his tenantry. amongst whom he constantly resides, except when attending Ins duty iu Parliament. Patties of the corps patrol the country for some miles round almost every night since the Insurrection Act was enforced. Upon uric oces i a pa i the patrol arrested three prisoners, under circumstances which induced Lord 'Carrick to send them into Kilkenny for trial, and the lame party who had spent the night in patrolling. volunteered to escort the prisoners a distance of nine miles. They were acquitted, and so conscious were they that the patrol had only done their duty in arresting them, and so grateful were they for such acts of kindnes4, under the circumstances, the officer commanding the party had it in his power to confer, that after their acquittal they remained in town until evening, in order to accompany those so lately their guards to the country, and actually pressed them to partake refreshments on the road. INSOLVEIVT DEBTORS' COURT, a:11. TIAVIISDAT, 'WMIIIIII2. 5. • John Broom, a drover and salesman in Smith 'field, was opposed by Mr. Poi.t.ocK and Mr. HEATH. on behalf of a great number of creditors. The Insolvent was supported by Mr. Coe&E. The Insolvent had carried on the burliness of ,drover and salesman for upwards of so years, and had been employed by several of his opposing ere •ditors to sell sheep. He had had current accounts •with them, and the awns specified in his schedule were the balances of these accounts. He had, on a former day, been required to file a detailed account of his receipts and disbursements for the year 1821, which was now done. The Counsel on both sides addressed the Court, and the Court having observed, that it did not appear that the Insolvent had engaged to pay to his em ployers the specific sums received on the sale of the cattle, declared him entitled to the benefit of the Act, and ordered him to be discharged forthwith. James Harris was opposed by Mr. HEATH on be. half of one of his creditors, upon the ground of a concealment of property. The Insolvent had kept a chandler's shop, arid, sonic short time before his imprisonment, had sold this shop, with every thing in it, for 35!. to a man named Woodmioster, who appeared to have been so officer in the army, on half-pay, having lodgings in Leicester-square, and also chambers in Lyon's-lun. Woodmister had never before been in such a business, and ever since the transaction, had suffered the wife of the Insol vent to carry on the business as usual, paying, however, as he stated, 7s. a week. The Court looked upon the transaction as a concerted fraud. arid ordered the Insolvent to be imprisoned for 15 month. James Mathewson was opposed by Mr. Comm, on behalf of Messrs. Currie sod Co., distillers, on the .ground of having contracted at debt fraudu lently. _ _ The Insolvent. who had been a bookseller in Oxford, and failed in that holiness, became a li ceuied victualler, and about the mouth of Nonni,- ber. 1821, contracted a debt with Messrs. Carrie to the amount of 571. for spirits. He had given some subsequent orders, and particularly iu the month of January. one for 501. In January lie paid Messrs Currie, on account, the sum of 501., leaving a debt of about 84/. In February the In solvent celled a meeting of his creditors, and gave theta 10s. in the pound, but did not give notice to Messrs. Currie; but in the month of March he apprised them of what he had done, and said that it was within a week after the first transaction. Mr. Carrie, one of the partners, threatened him with legal proceeding. and obtained from him a wanant of attorney. The Itoolveut had some time before given warrants of attorney to other people, as that when Meows. Currie took out execution upon their warrant of attorney, they found them selves anticipated by others. 11 was sow contended upon behalf of the Insol vent, by Mr. REAM that as Muir.. Curie aC. eepted the warrant of attorney subsequent to the cootracting of the original debt, it was to be held a waiver upon their parts of any fraud which might have been committed. He further insisted that the acknowledged payment of 501. its January to Mess s. Currie was nearly equivalent to the 10s. in the pound which they might have had under the com promise with the body of the creditors. It was argued on the other ride for the creditors, that although the general princiPle was such as Mr. Heath had stated it. yet if the subsequent security were attended with fraud. it would deprive the In solvent of the benefit of the veil which might other wise have been thrown over the original transaction. The case being heard, it was found that sonic notices had not been served, and the raw was ad journed for the impose of completing them. POLICE. —war GUILDHALL. BARTHOLOMEW FAIR.
