Application will be made to Parliament in the next Session for an Act to enable the formation of this Railway. The country, from its level nature, is peculiarly favourable, and the expense will be propertionably small. The average inclination will be 1 in 893. It will open the most ready communication to the north and north western parts of England, as well as Scotland, and will form a grand trunk to receive auxiliary communications on all sides. The distance to York will not exceed the mail coach road, and will be performed with ease in ten hours;the passengers travelling along this road greatly exceed those on any other road from Lon don, whether by posting or by stages. The immense supplies of animal and other food coining from the north and east to the me tropolis will be *ought in a much improved condition, and at a greatly reduced expense, as will also the merchandize from Leeds and the manufacturing districts. The cost of this Railway from London to York will be under 3,000,000/. The income, after deducting all expenses, will on the most moderate calculation exceed 400,000!. per annum, paying 14 per cent profit. The road will commence near Shoreditch Church, and proceed through Bishop'e Stortford, Cambridge, Lincoln, and Selby, to York. At Selby it will join the line to Leeds, and at once open a communication with that most important district. Applications for Shares of 1001. each (if by letter, post-paid) may be made to Messrs. Vizard and Leman, Lincoln's Inn-fields ; and to the Secretaries, at 56, Lombard-street, where also a more detailed and full prospectus may be had. A Deposit of 31. per share will be required to be made to Messrs. Masterman and Co., or Messrs.

TO BE LET, WITH IMMEDIATE POSSESSION, THE MAIL-COACH HOTEL, GEORGE STREET, LIMERICK, situated in the most eligible part of the best street in that very rising city. This house has just un dergone extensive improvements, and has been newly painted, papered, &c. It has seven windows in range to the street, and contains thirty apartments, besides under-ground story, four water closets, &c. Seven mail and stage coaches arrive at and depart from it every day ; and from the acknowledged deficiency of a supe rior kind of public accommodation in Limerick, no doubt exists that, under the management of a person experienced in the im proved system practised in England, and having sufficient capital to furnish the house and set the business going, a considerable pro perty might in a few years, be realized. To a person possessing 'these requisites liberal encouragement would be given. This ad vertisement is worthy the immediate attention of innkeepers, whose interests will be affected by the numerous railroads now in progress throughout England.

CORPORATION REFORM ACT. The following is a copy of a case submitted to the Attorney-General by the overseers of the several parishes in Newcastle, with his opinion thereon : " In the borough of Newcastle-upon-Tyne there are many merchants, manufacturers, and traders, who occupy warehouses, counting-houses, manufactories, and shops within the borough, of considerable annual value, and in respect of which they are rated to the relief of the poor of the several parishes within which the same are respectively situate, but such persons do not rent or reside in an entire house, but, as lodgers, only reside in furnished apartments, hired or rented by the week, month, or year, as tho case may be, but in respect of which they are not rated, and some of such persons reside with, and are inmates of, the family of their respective parents. For the guidance of the overseers of the several parishes in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, your opinion is requested— " Ist. Whether such persons who, as lodgers, reside in hired furnished apartments, but who are, with respect to rating, as to their warehouses, &c., and length of residence, duly qualified, are to be considered as inhabitant house holders, and, as such, entitled to he enrolled in the burgess roll of the borough ?' " 2d. Whether such persons, who are only inmates in their parents' family, but who are otherwise qualified as aforesaid, arc entitled to be so enrolled ? _ _ " I am clearly of opinion that neither the lodgers nor the inmates are entitled to be enrolled. _ _ " Temple, Oct. 10." —Tyne _Mercury.

A short distance from Cairo he has established a permanent military hospital, and placed it under European surgeons, and the same rules are adopted in it as prevail in the best regulated hospitals in Europe ; he has also formed, in connection with it, a school of medicine and anatomy, in which not only botany, mineralogy, and chemistry are taught, but human bodies are publicly dissected by those who profess the. Mahomedan religion, and who are publicly rewarded in the heart of a great Mahommedan city, for the skill and knowledge they display in dissections. Carriage roads are being constructed between Alexandria and Cairo, and also between Alexandria and Rosetta, and Damietta, and stage-coaches to be used on these roads are being built according to a model of one sent to Egypt by a coach maker of this country. There are at present steam-boats , which are constantly navigating the Nile. The Pacha has also patronised the employment by Mr. Briggs of two en gineers sent out from this country, for the purpose of boring for water in diff eren t p ar t s o f th e d eser t b e t w een Cairo and Suez. They have already by their skill suc ceeded in discovering wate r i n severa l par t s o f th e d eser t on this line. He has also patronised the publication of a weekly news paper at Cairo, i n t h e A ra b ic an d T tir l i i4 languages, for theinstruction of his people. ~.~ [Abridged frOM ilea ifidifibiTiii! Adtu rase,' of Tuesday.] MEETING OP CITY MAXTORS. - Yesterday a meeting of the Edinburgh electors was held in the Wateriod-rOoroi called by Sir John Campbell, the isltternevGerieral for trigieticli as one of their representa tives. DY it , ird o'clo'ck, the appointed hour of meeting, the large room was fieSii* filled, and afterwards became com pletely crowded. Sir John ts l ;atopbell entered the apart ment along with the Lord Provost mid Sir Thomas Dick Lauder, folio Wed by Bellies Thomson, Donaldson, and M'Laren, the Solicitor-Oeneral (Mr. Cuningliam), Mr. Andrew Rutherford, Mr. Graliam D al y ell, Mr. Robert Thomson and Mr. James Crawford, advocates, Mr. Forre:A of Comiston, &c. On the motion of Mr. Rutherford, the Lord Provost was called to preside. done him the His LORDSHIP said, the electors havi n g honour to place him in the Chair, had afforded him the proud opportunity of presenting to their notice the Right Hon. Sir John Campbell. his Majesty's Attorney-General, whom they had the second time elected to represent the City of Edinburgh in Parliament. He could not sit down without bearing his personal testimony to the unwearied exertions of Sir John Campbell, which he had witnessed during a period of nine weeks, when many Bills for the in terest of the city were under his consideration, and other Bills against its interests were brought * forward. In for warding these for the interests of the inhabitants, Sir John was indefatigable. Sir JOHN CAMPBELL then rose, and after the cheers with which he was received had subsided, proceeded to address the meeting. Gentlemen, said he, I must begin with cor recting a mistake of your worthy and respectable Chief Magistrate. I have been elected by you, not twice, as he has just stated, but three times—(Cheers) --and the third time in a manner more gratifying than ever happened to any Mernbet of the Commons House of Parliament. You elected me in my absence, and in the most distinct terms intimated that it wadnot necessary for me to appear be f o re you to solicit was Lord not andt h e act of a Cornish burgh,it was ceay.ing.t.3ltietenttnleamnednaitethnfis, itsi„. t ll e as s te p r n , n a ta n n d e r n e n t s ur a n n i t ng a t f he a Peer seiven i' t o ll ' ousand te franchise electors, who showed that they were worthy of :..! n cO m ns u tft e ue o n f cy ' of bestowed upon them.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, I trust ;' Oll have seen no reason to regret the choice you then made. I have always studied to act upon those principles which first recommended me to your choice. Gentlemen, lam connected With a Government, of which I am proud to be a Member ; but the sentiments I utter are only those of an individual ; and you must net stippose that the Govern ment can be implicated by any words which may fall from me. Gentlemen, in former times the AttotnerGeneral was selected by the Ministry of the day, and by him put into some rotten borough ; and he lied, therefore, no character be fore the public, except as an organ of die Government by whom he was selected. But different times note exist. I am the Attorney-General of the Crown ; but I have alto the honour of being your representative in Parliament ; and 1 ' will venture to say, that the one office is in the most perfect harmony with the other.—(Cheers.) You will not now sus pect me of flattery when I say, that I believe myself to be the Representative of the most intellectual, the most independent, and the mnst patriotic constituency in the British Empire—(Cheers)—and I never yet found that my duties as your representative and as a servant of the Crown in the least degree conflicted ; and while I be long to the Government, such shall be my conduct that that event can never arise. —(Cheers.) Gentlemen, when I last appeared before you, it was in c onsequence of what is called a coup d'etat, by which the Tories got into power, and Sir Robert Peel and the Duke of Wellington seized the helm of affairs. Gentlemen, I (lid not hesitate a mo ment as to the line of conduct I should pursue. Of Sir Robert Peel I have never spoken either in public or private except with respect. He has many valuable qualities ; and I say that Scotland is indebted to him and to his conduct while Secretary for the home Department. I will do Sir Robert Peel the justice to say that several of the most able and independent judges on the Scottish Bench were ap pointed by him. And in dispensing the Church patronage of the Crown, lie did what he could to select individuals most acceptable to parishes, and most qualified to do the duties of the office. But Sir Robert Peel, as Prime Mi nister of the country I shall always strenuously oppose.— (Cheers.) As an honest man he must adhere to his prin ciples, and by those he can only be an occasional conformist, —he can only submit to reform as little as possible ; and only for the purpose of preventing what he considers a greater evil—the establishment of a more liberal Govern ment.--(Cheers.) That policy I foresaw he would pursue, and that policy he did pursue. Though he had the Duke of Wellington for his colleague, it was impossible that his Government should not suffer the opposition of all liberal men. No man can speak of the Duke of Wellington but with admiration and gratitude. As a military man, he is illustrious among the nations—(Cheers) —and he has done signal service to this country. But, gentlemen, the Duke of Wellington never showed his wisdom more than in de clarit, that he was utterly incapable of being Prime Minis ter of this country.—(Cheers and laughter.) He does not understand the public mind of this country. He is under the grossest delusion re g arding the sentiments which are felt on political subjects. When he declared that the rotten burgh system was the most perfect which human ingenuity or human wisdom could have conceived or devised, I think he believed that the public sentiment responded to this de claration. But with his military habits—with his associa tions—with his prejudices—with his principles—and with his ignorance, I must say, of the principles of a free and liberal Government, I say he must be ever utterly incapable of being a Minister of the country—(Cheering)—and all attempts to restore him to it shall have my most strenuous opposition. For to what a state did he reduce this country by his, I must call it, misgovernment ? When he first seized the helm, nothing but disconsent reigned through the country—insurrectionary movements in many parts of it—and misery and suffering.—(Cheers.) In the far ther parts of the island incendiary fires were blazing in every quarter, many counties were in all but open insur rection against the Government. I say these were the effects of misgovernment ; and into that situation the country would ere long have been again plunged, if the Tory rule had power. I could not hesitate, therefore, as to the conduct I was to adopt. Gentlemen, the first great object for which I laboured after I left you in the summer, was as to who should be Speaker of the Reformed House of Commons ; and I glory to say, that I laboured day and night in order that we should not again have a Tory Chair man in that House.—(Cheers.) I will frankly say, that I think it was a blunder in Lord Grey's Government in the first Reformed Parliament, that Sir Charles Manners Sutton should have been re-elected to the situation. In the Re formed House of Commons I was anxious to see a Reform Chairman ; I therefore determined that so far as in me lay that the blunder should not be repeated ; and of all the S R l ig e l a i l t '-e l r -lo as e.J la tl r t i e . Members sent into the House at the last general election I the a ines Abercromby. could find no one so eminently qualified for the office of colleague brer w om ho b l y n ._ yo ( t c t il l a ta e v rs e ). gi A ve n n in m re e g , nus struggle never took place than there did on that occa sion. The Tories thought they had every advantage, and indeed some of our friends had been induced to give a pledge to Sir C. M. Sutton, before they knew that a liberal candidate was to be started, The Tories were con fident to the last ; they even offered bets of two to one in favour of their candidate ; and I am glad that their pockets were pretty freely drained upon the occasion.—(Laughter.) Even when the .division came, those Tories who were not in the gecret'were still confident when they beard 306 an nounced as the number of votes in favour of their candidate. The other side came to be counted, and when the Tellers gave out 301, 2,3, 4,5, and 6, the faces of the Tories had got very long-316 Members voted for Mr. Abercromby, and he was in consequence placed in the Chair.—(Loud cheers.) The liberal cause then triumphed ; and it had been well if Sir Robert Peel, seeing the House of Commons and the people against him, had then made his graceful bon and retreated.—(Laughter.) . Gentlemen, the Lord Pro vost has truly stated the remelt why Mr. Abercromby does not now appear before you ; and I am confident that all of you respect the feelings by which he is actuated. Gentle men, he is as true as steel ; and although Chairman of the House of Commons—yet, when out of that Chair, his wis dom and counsels were always ready for the interest of his constituents ; and I am sure you love and honour him the more for the services he is performing to his country gene rally.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, I will venture to say, that in regard to the duties of Speaker, these have not in the present generation have been performed in so exem plary a manner as by your R e presentative.--(Cheers.) Sir John then alluded to the next struggle they had regard ing the address in answer to the King's speech, which they carried by a cons id era bl y l arger ma j or ity th a n the question of the Speaker.—(A voice cried out, "No ! you had only seven.) I beg to say (said Sir John) that we hat: a majo rity which ought to have told the M . •it full Minister that was it raw.—(Cheering and laughter,) time for him to w' hd . . present Government reproached for going on with is the Wi n majorities of 35 ? Here was Sir RobertP 1 ' with a minority Peel going on of 35—with a majority of 35 against him— (Cheers)—and this too, in a Parliament which he, Sir Ro bert Peel, had himself called,--(Cheers.) Sir Robert Peel afterwards tteknowledged the principle that DO Minister could govern this canary who had not the confidence and support of a majority of the Members of the House of Commons ; and if lie bad much longer persisted in acting against this principle he would have endangered the stabi lity of the Monarchy itself.—(Cheers.) Sir R. Peel did continue in office, and brought forth what he called his measures. Gentlemen, most of these measures were ours —they were stolen from us—they were our children ; but like the gypsies, who were in the habit of stealing children, they so disguised and disfigured them that they might not be known by their real parents.—(Laughter.) He brought forward to be sure a measure for the commutation of tithes id* England—but that commutation was voluntary on the part both of the parson and the landowner. It was a mere delusion t o say 6;0 tithes could be commuted in this manner. He a:0 broug-2it forward a measure for the re lief of Dissenters in regard to their marriages ; but this Bill, he (Sir John) asserted, oni; tended to disgust the Dissenters ; and drew such a line between thm and members of the Church, as to mark the mkjriages of Dis privileged as a sort of privileed concubinage. He then a lluded to Sir R. Peel's Irish Tithe Bill, and contended that, by that measure, all the abuses of the Irish Church wens: al lowed to remain without either remedy or redress. It now, he said, became time to give another hint to Sir Robert Peel, as neither that on the election of the Speaker or the Address had been taken. Lord John Russell brought for ward his Resolutions regarding the Irish Church, and which, he said, were calculated to promote the peace and prosperity of Ireland. These Resolutions were opposed by the Tories, but were carried by the House of Commons, and then at last Sir Robert made his bow and retired. In the formation of the new Government, the office which he (Sir John) formerly held was offered to him by Lord Mel bourne, and he hoped they did not think him wrong in ac cepting it.—(Cheers.) He was warmly attached to Lord Melbourne's Government, and vvahout a moment's hesita tion accepted the offer. But the Sessit;n of Parliament was now fast waning away, and the Governmel:t thought they were right in confining their attention to two great mea sures, namely, the Irish Tithe Bill, founded on Loral John Russell's Resolutions, and the English Municipal Bill. Sir John then, at considerable length, described the progress and passing of these Bills by the House of Commons, and the opiNsition which they had encountered in the Up per House, ;i: consequence of which the one had been entirely lost, and the other considerably mutilated. The House of Commons--that House which had been called violent, intemperate, and radical, displayed on this occasion a forbearance, moderation, and magnanimity which strongly contrasted with the conduct. of the Upper House. They were anxious to avoid a collision, and there fore willingly overlooked the intemperate displays which had been made in the House of Peers. They de termined to do everything, and to forbear every thing, for the good of the .country. Don't you think, said Sir John, that we did well in this ? (Cheers.) I tell you that we greatly disappointed the hopes of the Tories- Their object was to disgust us, and to bring the two Hou;es into collision, hoping that, in the confusion, their own part;' would again get into power. Gentlemen, we disappointed the Tories by agreeing to the Municipal Bill as it had come ths:• second time from the House of Lords ; but we agreed protes;:ing for the liberty of taking the first opportunity afforded us of remedying all the defects which the Lords have persisted in retaining.— (Cheers.) Gentlemen, I glory in thinking that the Bill is now the law of the land. Gentlemen, I must now refer to a subject of great delicacy, namely, the Church Commis sion. Petitions were presented for additional endowments to the Church of Scotland. I have often declared, what I now heartily again declare, that I am a sincere friend of the established religion of the country ; but I thought, and I believe all thinking men will be of same opinion that to propose an additional grant, without enquiry, would be highly culpable.—(Cheers.) If an Establishment be ne cessary and beneficial, which I think it is, at the same time I think much may be trusted to the Voluntary principle —(Cheers and hisses)—and in my humble opinion they work most harmoniously and beneficially together. Gen tlemen, the Scotch Church Commission was agreed to in the House of Commons by an unanimous vote of the Whigs, Tories, and Radicals. Whence, then, has arisen the clamour which I now find prevailing in my native land ? I deeply regret the spirit which prevails in some part of Scotland on this subject. I observe that the Synod of Glasgow and Ayr have resolved on establishing Orange Lodges in every place within its bounds ; they have re solved on establishing Protestant Associations, and these I conceive to be synonimous with Orange Lodges, so that the Ministers of peatse, whose duty it is in every part to preach the Gospel, have resolved to do every thing in their Power to set man against man, pod to make dispeace in stead of inculcating Christian charn; in their parishes. I do not know if most of my auditors have read the Reports of the Committee of Inquiry on Orange Loogres, but sure I am that no human being can read them without seeing that more mischievous institutions were never established in the country. But I trust, notwithstanding the opinions Cx pressed by the Synod, or by other Bodies under the same delusion, from which I hope they will speedily recover, that religious peace will prosper in the country, and that while religion spreads and prospers, members of different persuasions will learn to look upon each other in the spirit of Christian charity. Sir John then said, we are now looking forward to a new Session of Parliament. It will not be ex pected that I should specify the measures which Govern ment intend to bring forward then, but I trust they will be such as in your opinion will be calculated to improve, re form, and consolidate the institutions of the country. By many it is thought that the House of LOrds will be a bar to all improvement. I hope better things. My opinion is, that the expression of public opinion will sway the Lords, and that when the people speak in a determined and constitutional manner, their voice will be obeyed. The Lords for a long period opposed every Li beral measure, but they yielded all one by one, and I have no doubt they will still pursue the same course. The Municipal Reform Bill they were obliged in substance to yield, although how they could conscientiously pass a Bill which they described as containing so many evils is more than I can solve or understand.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, we need not wonder that the Peers have been a little restive of late—( Laughter)—power has been snatched from them in a manner that was not expected. Our majorities have been only about thirty-five ; but if on a dissolution of Parliament you gave us our old majority of two hun dred an :I thirty, the Lords will give us no trouble at all. Th ey labour ..: . ocler a delusion that they arc exceedingly popular, and that tLeY express the views of the nation. If you disabuse them ortt< you will find them exceedingly have been talked of for a c c ommodating. Various reforming the Lords.—',Great chce,:ng.) My plan, Gen tlemen, is this—let the people return a g,„,:( 1 liberal House of Commons, and the House of Lords will be rt:. l :"rmed• have very auspicious forebodings with regard to s'..."other Session of Parliament and the future destinies of the cone: - try. ,Never in my time did more general prosperity pre vail in it. I rejoice in my heart to find improvements going on in every corner of the land. Industry established, industry rewarded, the wages of industry bearing a larger proportion to the price of provisions than was ever known in any former period. Not only are great. capitalists reap ing clue return, but all the operatives, with exception, perhaps, of handloom weavers, as a body, arc better clothed, better lodged, and better fed, than at any former period.—(Cheers.) I believe even that the agricultural interests, if properly understood. are in a flourishing con dition ; that is, their produce, year by year, is increasing, and, therefore, they are becoming more wealthy and more powerful. What is the cause of this ? It must be ascribed to the good government which has prevailed. Sir John concluded by returning thanks to the meeting for the ho nour they had done him, and for the patience with which they had listened to him. if any part of his conduct re quired explanation he was ready to give it. In reference to what Sir John had said regarding the establishment of Protestant Societies, a Gentleman stated that whatever character Orange Lodges might have in other parts of the empire, here the Protestant Societies were strictly of a religious character, with the view of ex citing among their flocks a spirit of inquiry as to the princi ples on which their faith was founded. Sir John said that was exactly the language held by the Orange Lodges, though they were decidedly political Ortizans. The DEAN of GUILD said, after the dear, manly, and straight-forward and convincing statement of the Right Hon. Member, he was sure it was the opinion of the meet ing that the City of Edinburgh was most fortunate in having such an efficient representative. He would, there fore, move that they approve of the conduct of Sir John Campbell in Parliament, which had their entire approbation. Mr. FORREST, of Comiston, seconded the resolution, which was carried by acclamation. Mr: ANDREW RUTHERFORD proposed the second reso lution, that the meeting express their respectful congratu , %Ins to their other Representative , the R i g ht Hon. cbercromby, on his elevation to the office of Jarnp '•e House of Commons, and the high gratifica- Speaker to s Yesterday the font ation stone of the city of London New School, was laid by • 2.ord Brougham. The site of . the building is in Honey-lane Market, Cheapside. A committee was appointed to carry the plan into effect„ and the arrangements for affording aceemmodation were very complete. The great interest in the .business, how ever, was, that it was understood that Lora Brougham had consented to lay the foundation stone. ei.le tempo rary entrance to the site of the intended building .was tastefully covered in and decorated with flags, and the. square was occupied with galleries conveniently fitted up for the accommodation of those who had cards of admission. . Shortly after two o'clock, Lord Brougham- "" was . ushered. in by the gentlemen of the Committee , beartffi - their wand of office. ' , His Lordship, who had been much cheered out side, had a i smost cordial reception ; he was cheered from al! quarters of the place. Among the company present we notice'! Mr. Grote, M. P.; Mr. Patteson, M. P.; Mr. Crawford, M.P.; Mr. Williams, M.P.; Sir James Shaw, the City Chamberlain ; the City Recorder, the City Roe membrancer, the City Solicitor, the Town Clerks Sheriffs Salomons and Laitison, and the late Sheriff Illidge ; Un-. der Sheriff C. Pearson, Aldermen Wilson, Cowan, Thorpe, and Sir P. Laurie ; Dr. Biekbeek, the Rev.- Alexander . Fletcher, the Rev. H. G. Watkins, the Rev. Mr. O'Brien, the Rev. Thomas Rennie, the Rev. W. C. Woodbridge, editor of the work entitled the "Annals of Education," from the City of Boston, in the United States ; and nearly the whole Members of the Common Council. The stone, which weighed about seven tons, was sus l; ended from an apparatus made for the purpose. A glass ease , hermetically sealed, contained a copy of the plan of the budding, and other documents. A strong brass case, with glass on each side, contained one each of all the cur rent coins of the realm, placed in positions so as to exhibit both sides of ti:e coin. A large massive brass plate con tained, the followfv,g inscriptiou : The first stone of the Gulielmo IV. Rege. City of London School, established by the Corporation of i.oodon, under the authority of an Act of Parliament, of the foucth and fifth years of the reign of King William the Fourth, .chap XXXV., Was laid by The Right Honourable HENRI' Lord BROUGHAM and VAUX, on Wednesday, the twenty-first d.esT of October, 1835, In the presence pf Warren Stormes Hail, Esq., Chairman, And the Members of the Committee appointed by fie Court to carry the said Act into exeem:ion. In addition to which were the 'names of 52 gentlemen l eiio constituted the Committee. A Over trowel , with an appropriate inscriptons having been presented to Lord Brougham, His Leseosme said he bad great satisfaction ,in being present on that interesting occasion. He should always be happy to render his assistance to such a good and charitable object. He trusted the school would be as useful to the city, as it wee creditable to those who originated it. Hie Lordship having performed the usual ceremonies, was about to retire, when Sir P. LAURIE requested to say a few words. namely, that I felt much Lord BROUGHAM —I Nave only to repeat what I stated to the Committee in privates sa tisfaction in contributing to the foundation of this great, and I trust, useful establishmeNt —which does infinite ho nour to this great city, and to the' Corporation, in parti cular. His Lordship then retired, but there appeared a general feeling of disappointment that .a longer oration had not been delivered. THE DINNER. In the evening the great event was celA rated by a din ner at the city of London Tavern, where about two hun dred of the m ost distinguished friends of the education of people the a esembled. Mr. HALE took the chair, and on his right sat Lord 13rougham, Dr. Birkbcck, Messrs. Grote, Crawlerd, and Pa;Jeson, the City Representatives. Alderman Wood was absent, we are c ertain not without a sufficient cause. On gat Aldermen Thorpe, Cowan, Wilson, the Recorder, and several other t a h n e d le s f i t r o p t . t e b te e r Clraiurrits, Members of the Corporation. The Sheriffs sat one at each end of the table. After the usual toasts— st to propose, which they The CHAIRMAN had a to e: would all delight to honour. lelrd Brougham directed all the powers of his mighty mind to the promotion of the people's happiness—(Applause)—feet they, probably, did not know how much the Institution the t day founded was indebted to his valuable assistance.—( great applause.) They were aware that the estate which forts-led an endow ment of the schools that day founded was left by. the will of a respectable citizen, of the name of Carpenter, in in 1438, at which time it produced but 191. IVs. a year. Mr. Carpenter, he might mention, was the Town Clerk of the City of London ; had several times represernted the City in Parliament, and was executor of the celebrated Whittington. He left the estate at its then value to the Corporation, for the education of four boys—the estate has since increased to 90td. a year ; and when the Corpo ration liberally determined to apply the whole amount to the purpose of the most extended education, by founding the school of which the first stone was laid to-day, it was found that an Act of Parliament was necessary ; and it was also found that there were such difficulties in the way of passing that Act, that had it not been for Lord Brougham's exertions, who was then Lord Chaticellor, it was doubtful whether they could be overcome. He would drink the beljth of their illustrious guest, Lord Brougham. The toast was drunk with immense applause. Lord BROLIC. HAM begged leave to return his grateful and respectful thanks for the very kind manner in which his health had been &eels. The Chairman had adverted to the history of this dimity. Among all the charities of the kingdom, he did not knos; 7 one of its size—no doubt there were many larger, but he*O:d not know one of the same extent likely to produce mote beneficial results .—(Ap plause.) When the London University was founded, about ten years ago—and he was glad to see one of its learned and able professors then present—his friend, Professor Key —he wished to speak wholesome truths, though they might not be the most palatable—(A laugh)--and he always re minded his fellow citizens of London' of what he considered a great blot on their character—that was, that they had not supported the London University better. There was no great. pleasure in saying or in healing this ; but it might answer a useful purpose, because it would be recollected. —(L md applause.) This brought him to what he hoped would not be the case of the school founded that day. As long as he knew London it was said, what a dreadful thing it is that London should have no University—that there should be Universities in Oxford, in Cambridge, and Dublin, and Edinburgh, and none in London ! Well, exertions were made for founding a Lon don University, and to the immortal honour of the city of London a sufficient sum was raised in a few months for founding that noble Institution—( A pplause)—the building was raised soon after ; Professors of the greatest talents and acquirements were engaged—the immense Halls were ca pable of receiving a proportionate number of pupils—the most costly and beautiful apparatus was provided for teach ing every science, and no doubt many availed themselves of these advantages, and he hoped many more would do so ; but in some things it must be admitted it was a failure. He could only account for this in two ways : one was, that i i ,,: , rather thought, his fellow citizens of London were not in t h e h , 1 4 of sending their sons to any University ; and seine o f th em preferred suding one son to Oxford or Cam bridge at a co,.'t of :200/. of 3001. a-year, when for one fourth of the sum they migl:t educate four or five in Lon don with the unspee.kable acivantage of having them brought up under their parents' reo.r, at the same time that they were receiving the best educati . ol;• 'rite second cause of the partial Where of the London tro.versity he thought was its distance {ram the City. He had reason to know that the citizens in that part of the metropolis where they then were would send their sons in greater nurribers than those at the other end, but for the distance. That. brought him to the subject of the day—the new School. It tood on different grounds from the Londo n University—there was DO rivalship ; one gave a larger ecineation, the other was more limited ; but they had one common ob j ect —domestic tuition and public education ; and h e entertained t h e most sanguine expectations from the admirable insti . tution founded that day.—( Hear, hear.) oth insti tutions stood on the same grand principle that B they were open to all classes—to all religions. _(Great applause.) There were no tests.—(Applause.) Any man who in this country, in 1835, would require a test as a qualification to receive education, would be considered much more fit for another institution of which this City possesses snore than one.—( Applause and laughter.) To found a test to exclude front education—from office—from any secular ad vantage—because one person worships God in a manner differently front another, was not dreamt of ill this insti tution.—(Hear, hear.) It roust afford every friend of human improvement great satisfaction to witness the rapid strides in liberality that had been made by the 'City of London in the last two years. Last year he had dined at the Merchant Tailors' Hall with the the High Sheriffs of London, the predecessors of the present Sheriffs—he did not know but they were the Sheriffs at the present time —Mr. Raphael and his colleague, and on that occasion lie had heard grace said both before and after meat by a Ro man Catholic Priest, the Chaplain of the High Sheriff. It was gratifying to contemplate the obliteration of preju dices which that eiretunstauce exhibited.
