PRICE 70. ration Ifth of the whole Wes FURTHER SPECIAL CAUTION. it ETT'S IMPROVED PATENT s BRANDY, distilled EXCLUSIVELY for this Establish ment, and not to be had elsewhere, is so decidedly superior to the common British Brandy, or nominal Patent, that (either in hot or cold water) it is difficult to distinguish it from fine French Brandy, though the IMPROVED PATENT BRANDY is considered as essentially more pure and more salutary in its effects! A single Gallon, Ws. Scrupulous persons are invited to try a single pint, (as. 3d.), or a sealed bottle, (3s. 6d. ), which H..BRETT under takes to supply on the express condition that should any larger quantity, thereupon ordered, prove inferior to such" sample, the whole is to be forfeited. ENTERTAINMENT at the MANSION-HOUSE. councils were such as would tend to the benefit of the country, and as the citizens of London had a right to ex pect. He was not able, on the present occasion, to give expression to all that he felt ; but, although be might be wanting in the power of expressing his sentiments ade quately, be hoped he should never be wanting in constitu tional love for his Sovereign, and regard to his Ministers who did their duty towards the citizens of London, and the empire at large. In this he was sure he should be borne out by his fellow-citizens, and by all those whose respect and good opinion were worth having. As he had the hap piness of having the Prime Minister at his table, he should now propose the health of the Right Hon. Sir Robert Peel and his Majesty's Ministers. The toast was drank with three times three, and loud cheers. the lot 17, T. BETTS and CO. feel that they aro called • upon, in consequence of recent numerous applications, from the highest quarters, for explanations with reference to their PATENT FRENCH DISTILLED BRANDY, to urge upon public notice this further Caution. When attempts are industri ously made to foist upon the consumers of this article others bearing a title nearly similar, but wholly deficient in those essentials which distinguish BETT'S BRANDY, it is incumbent upon the Pa tentees to call the attention of their friends and the public to the dis tinctions which peculiarly apply to their production. The first point to which they would direct attention is, the fact, that the title or designation of their Brandy is, and from its origin, has ever been, unchanged. That title is, BETTS'S PATENT FRENCH DISTILLED BRANDY." They next feel it necessary to guard all persons against a suppo sition that their Brandy is susceptible of improvement. From the first day that it was brought to public notice, it has remained the same—unimproved and unimprovable. The perfection of its qua lity has the sanction of the most eminent Chemists (whose Testi monials are already before the public), after minute analysis ; and it has, EXCLUSIVELY, had the recommendation of numerous Medical men of the highest rank, resting upon a practical know ledge of its merits. And lastly, it is most essential to observe that the only Patent Right for making Brandy on French principles, is that obtained by themselves. _ _ The Lord Mayor gave an entertainment yesterday, at the Mansion-house, which was attended by his Majesty's Ministers, and by a large number of persons most eminent for their rank, talent, and influence in the various branches of the State. Many of the principal individuals connected with the Municipal and Commercial Departments of the city of London, of all shades of politics, were also invited, and the company, on the whole, was, perhaps, the most splendid, and the proceedings the most important and in teresting that have been witnessed within the walls of the Mansion-house for some years. The company consisted of about 250 persons. _ _ REFORM IN EAST KENT. ie termit l3 : the Cole' t necessity", ital to tbea AT a numerous and highly respectable Meeting R the Members of the Reform Committee and other influential dormers in Rid Kent, heltl at the Lion Hotel, Canterbury, on alotday, 22d inst. a the term` d egislatur e, themselves claims hes Ig• the G ° " operation this meet led, as el' the coni: vhich their ii Minister le arrange ondholders re entitled BRETT'S CREAM OF THE VALLEY is a pure, pleasant, and wholesome GIN, entirely free from perni cious ingredients, or artificial substitutes for strength.

The following resolutions were carried unanimously : lst.—That this meeting, in cornmeal with a vast majority of the People of the United Kingdom, have felt the greatest disappoint tient at the selection by his Majesty of an Administration corn t°sed of men who have constantly and perseveringly opposed every ttefortn in Church and State. 2 1 —That this disappointment has been heightened by the public declaration signed " R. PEEL," now made of the principles they intend to act upon--a declaration which can only be characterised a , a most plausible piece of casuistry which can mislead no one, and s'Afficiently proves what the people of England have to expect from a conforming Administration. 311 .—That this declaration equivocates on Municipal Reforms, that it insults the Dissenters, that it openly avows its protection of t he gross injustice of the Irish Church, that Tithe is left for future co nsideration, that Church Reform is merely mystified, and that Agricultural Distress it says nothing. 4 th. —That in this emergency we can only look to our Repre leutatives in the Commons House of Parliament, for security to the Throne and the safety and tranquillity of this great empire. s th. —That with this view, it is the bounden duty of all True Lleforrners, of all honest well-wishers to their Country, to elect no 1 an as their Representative who is not known to be a DECIDED LIBERAL.

RHEUMATISM. --His Majesty's Letters Patent j have recently been granted to Mr. Coles for a medicated Band, which positively cures Rheumatism, Lumbago, Cramp, &c., &c. The Band is worn near the part affected, and may be removed at pleasure. A great public Functionary connected with one of our London Hospitals, whose case, to use his own expression, had baffled every medicine that was quack, and every medicine that was not quack, has sent 11Ir. Coles his written testimonial which may be seen at 3, Charing-cross, wherein he admits that Mr. Coles's Rheumatic Bands have completely subdued his disease, and he de. (dared that there was not a man upon the face of the earth who had more reason to be grateful to another than he had to Mr. Coles. My Lord Skelmersdale had a coachman who was suffering a martyr dom to the above complaint, declared when he called to pay Mr. Coles that ere he had worn Coles's Rheumatic Band five days he was more free from pain than he had been in the preceding five years. fa - The bargain in each case was no cure no pay.

LITERATURE OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY. THE FIRST of the SERIES on AMERICAN LITERATURE will appear in a DOUBLE number of the ATHENEUM on the 3d of January, and be continued in DOUBLE NUMBERS, without cost, at intervals of about a fortnight, until complete. GERMANY, by Dr. Wolff, Professor of Belles Lettres at the University of Jena, will follow in due course. The Papers on ,TURKISH LITERATURE, by Von Hammer, are already received ; and those on ITALIAN, FRENCH, and PERSIAN LITERATURE, are in active prepa ration. The Proprietors having been heretofore obliged to reprint no less than thirteen numbers, earnestly entreat such persons as intend to become subscribers with the new year, to give orders to their re spective booksellers or newsmen at their earliest convenience. THE VOLUME OF THE ATHEN 4 /EUM for 1834 (952 LARGE QUARTO PAGES, with title page and index), con taining, it is believed, the most perfect history of the Literature, &c., of the period, will be published on the 31st, price 11., neatly bound in cloth. The ATHENEUM, price Fourpence, is published every Satur day. CAUTION. THE high reputation to which NORTON'S CA MOMILE PILLS have attained, and the great relief they have afforded to persons suffering from indigestion, &c. &c., has induced several unprincipled persons to prepare Pills in imitation, expecting to impose upon the public by assuming the name of Ca momile. That purchasers may not be deceived and disappointed, Thomas Norton begs to assure them that this preparation of Camo mile is peculiarly his own, and made known to no other persons than the present Proprietors, A. Willoughby and Co., successors to Benjamin Godfrey NVindus, 61, Bishopsgate-street-Without. by whom they are now faithfully prepared, and sold in bottles at Is. lid., 2s. 9d., and lls. each, and by nearly all respectable Me dicine vendors. Be particular to ask for Norton's Pills, and ob serve that the Government stamp is engraved Benjamin Godfrey Windus. All others are counterfeit. 49 49 47 46 20 13 13 0 Crowds of idle persons were assembled in the neighbour hood of the Mansion-house, who saluted the guests as they arrived with cheers or hisses, according to their liking or distaste for their politics or persons. Amongst the company were the Duke of Wellington, Sir Robert Peel, the Lord Chancellor, the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Marquis of Salisbury, the Earl of Aber deen, Lord Wharncliffe, Earl Munster, Lord Ellenborough, Lord Rosslyn, the Speaker of the House of Commons, Mr. Baring, Mr. Herries, Sir Geo. Murray, Sir H. Hardinge, Sir John Beckett, Lord Fitzgerald, the Chief Baron (Scarlett), the Chancellor of Ireland (Sugden), the Attor ney-General (Pollock), Mr. Croker, Sir Edward Knatch bull, Mr. Goulburne, Lord Hill, Lord Chesterfield, Lord G. Somerset, Lord Strangford, Lord Maryborough, Lord Burghersh, Lord Lowther, Lord Mahon, Lord Ashley, the Bishop of London, Lord Tenter den, Sir C. Trotter, Bart., Mr. W.Ward, Mr. Lyall, Mr. C. Ross, and many other Noblemen and Gentlemen of high distinction. Amongst the Ladies, in addition to the Lady Mayoress, were Lady Peel, .the Countess of Jersey, Lady Maryborough, Mrs. Cowley, Lady Wharncliffe, Lady Emily Hardinge, Lady Burghersh, Lady Anne Beckett, Lady Georgians Wortley, Lady Ma hon, and Lady Waterford. After dinner the LORD MAYOR proposed in succession the following toasts :—" Church and King"—" The Queen" —" The Princess Victoria, and the rest of the Royal Fa mily"—" The Navy of Great Britain"—" Lord Hill, and the Army"—which were severally drunk with three times three and great enthusiasm. For the last toast Lord HILL returned thanks in a few words, on behalf of himself and the army. " Prosperity to the City of London" was the next toast, and it was received with strong marks of satisfaction. The LORD MAYOR then rose and said that he had great gratification in seeing at his table that day the Archbishop of Canterbury, the head of that Church which we had all such great reason to admire, not only for the beneficent and wise tenets which it professes, but also on account of the Christain principles which it enforces. As Chief Magis trate of the city of London it afforded him peculiar satis faction that the Most Rev. Prelate sanctioned this meeting by his presence, knowing as he did how highly the citizens of London appreciated the Church of which his Grace was the ornament. He, therefore, proposed to the company to drink the health of "his Grace the Archbishop of Canter bury." This call was cheerfully complied with. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY returned thanks, and assured his Lordship that, flattering as such a compliment must be to him at any time from the Chief Magistrate of the city of London, his gratification was much enhanced on account of the honour being done him in the presence of a company whose principles he so much respected. . The LORD MAYOR then said that he had another most distinguished person to introduce to the notice of the com pany. He was a Nobleman who filled a high and impor tant office in the councils of his i`dajc,Fty—he meant the. constitutional adviser of the King, the Lord High Chan cellor of England. Cheers.) distinguished indivi dual was at the head of a proves ion niost eminently re markable for the independence and integrity of its members in the administration of those laws which a wise Parliament had, from time to time, enacted for the benefit of this country. He (the Lord Mayor) was satisfied that he spoke the sentiments of the company, when he charac terised the Bar of England as a most independent, upright, judicious body, and in every respect qualified to benefit any country—but particularly a country like England, so cele brated for its institutions, and, above all, its administration of the law. He was sure the distinguished personage whose health he was about to propose would excuse him if be combined with it those of the brethren of the profession, and give " The health of the Lord Chancellor and the Bar of England." The LORD CHANCELLOR begged leave to return his best thanks to the Lord Mayor and the company present for the honour conferred upon him. The manner in which the toast had been received he could only interpret as a token of approbation of his public conduct.—(Cheers.) He had this day resigned an office, the duties of which he had discharged for the last four years. In the performance of those duties he had endeavoured to act faithfully both to his Sovereign and the people.—(Cheers.) If he had deserved the approbation of that assembly and of the people of this country by his public conduct, he was more than rewarded, for there was nothing that he so highly es teemed and prized as the approbation of his fellow-citizens. He had the satisfaction of being succeeded in the high office from which he had withdrawn by his Right Hon. Friend Sir James Scarlett—(cheers)—but who was still one of that independent body whom the Lord Mayor had so justly eulogised—one of the Bar of England. He was sure, from the long experience of his Right Hon. Friend—from his personal knowledge of the laws of the country—from his firm independence and integrity of character—and from his high talents, he would be an ornament to the judgment-seat which he was about to occupy.—(Cheers.) He was proud of being succeeded by such an individual ; and he was sure the a dministration of justice in the Court in which his Right Hon: Friend was about to preside would ensure the esteem and approbation of the country. He begged to be allowed again to return his best thanks for the honour which had been done him by the Lord Mayor in drinking his health, and for the cordial manner in which the toast had been received. The Loan MAYOR again rose, and assured the company that he had never presented himself to a public assembly under greater feelings of trepidation and embarrassment than he did on the present occasion. It was an occasion to which he must allude with heartfelt diffidence, knowing, as he did, his utter inadequacy to the high and important duty, which devolved upon him as Chief Magistrate of the City of London, of proposing the health which he was now about to announce. A humble citizen as he was, but called to fill the honourable and important office of Chief Magis trate of that great city, he had felt it his duty on this ex traordinary occasion, and at this extraordinary time, to call his fellow-citizens together, to meet his Majesty's Ministers. ._-(Cheers.) He assured the assembly that in doing so he had no personal object in view, but only that which every good citizen ought to aim at ; namely, doing suit and service to his fellow-citizens, and showing proper re spect and regard to the Sovereign who presides over the destinies of the country. In that tribute of respect and affection he was sure the citizens of London would be al ways ready to join when they were called upon.—(Cheers.) We had lately witnessed a change of the Ministry. He should not refer to those who had gone before ; it was not necessary that he should dwell upon their merits or dc• merits ; he should only call attention to those who were now appointed. As Chief Magistrate he felt that he should be guilty of a great departure from the line of his duty, were he to reflect upon the conduct of any person who 11.-!, from time to time been called upon to fulfil the Unties of servants of the Crown. Therefore he should on this occa sion only congratulate himself, and the citizetvz ot London, upon the appointment of men who, from their well-known character, their knowledge of civil Government, and their proved attachment to constitutional principles, might be confidently expected to follow such a line of policy as would conduce most to the advantage and prosperity of the coun try. If they did not follow that course—if the interests of the country suffered in their hands,---then they would be guilty of a dereliction of duty, and would fall short of what the citizens of London expected of them. He hoped that the Ministers whom his Majesty had chosen would have a due regard for the institutions of the country, and, at the same time, would show a readiness to correct any little ra vages which time may have made in those institutions. By such conduct the country would benefit, and the choice of his Majesty would be justified and confirmed, as he was satisfied it would be, by the confidence of the people. He was sure that his Majesty's Ministers would take every opportunity of improvin g w h atever could possibly be improved ; but, at the same time, that they would not destroy what they could not replace - -(Cheers.) ',ad invited to his table men of all political He should be ashamed of himself if he made any distinction on that ground ; he was only anxious that the Ministers of the Crown should have a fair trial, He trusted they would show the country what their inten tions were —what they proposed to do and he was con vinced that, when the people saw their wise and excellent measures, they would be satisfied with the choice which the King had made—(Cheers.) There were great and im portant interests in the city of London which roust be pro tected., and, he hoped the citizens would rally round the tlhrone, to do su it and service to the Crown, so long as the I Measures of those whom his Majesty had now called to his' Sir Robert Peel, the Duke of Wellington, and the other newly-appointed Ministers rose, and were received with enthusiasm. The Right Hon. Premier spoke to the fol lowing effect, the other Ministers remaining on their legs : My Lord Mayor and Gentlemen, although the Lord Mayor has mentioned my name in particular, in conjunction with the rest of his Majesty's Ministers, 3 et I am relieved from the embarrassment which, upon occasions of this kind, is generally experienced from the mention of an individual name, because I am convinced that I should greatly inis take your object, and underrate the importance of tbi meeting, if I thought it was intended to pay a compliment to any individual, or that it required the control of any per sonal feeling. I cannot pretend, therefore, to be over whelmed by personal feelings on this occasion. I believe your object to be, in a crisis of great importance, to con vey an assurance to the King that, in the exercise of a great .constitutional prerogative—(Cheers)—according to the - forms and spirit of the Constitution, there is a great body of the King's subjects, remarkable for their intelli gence, their respectability, and their wealth, having a deep interest in the welfare of their country, prepared to give their Sovereign their Constitutional support, and to . animate and encourage the objects of his Majesty's gra cious choice in the performance of an arduous duty.— (Cheers.) My Lord Mayor and Gentlemen, I neither consider that we are met here for the purpose of paying compliments to individuals, nor for the purpose of celebrat ing the triumph of any party.—(Cheers.) I believe your feel ings —if I have not incorrectly interpreted them—to be in consonance with those of a great proportion of the people of this country. My Lord Mayor and Gentlemen, it is impossible to deny that since the great and important events which have taken place within the last six years, it is impossible to deny that there has been a calm and tran quillity in the country, which, after the political excitement in which we had been, could not have been anticipated. I do not mistake the nature or cause of thatcalm and tran quillity. I do not construe it into indifference to public affairs, or a lazy acquiescence in any Government which the King might choose to form, or in any measure which that Government might think proper to frame. I well know that that tranquillity is perfectly consistent with the utmost vigilance, and, if necessary, with the utmost determina tion.—(Cheers.) I look upon it as no inconsistent with those qualities than the tranquillity of the vast ocean is inconsistent with resistless and overwhelming force. I believe that if the public feeling could be embodied in words, I should correctly interpret it in language of the fol lowing import :—" We are tired of agitation—we are tired • of that state of political excitement which in private life withdraws men from their proper business, and in public life exercises the energies of public men upon any other matters than their proper duties. We hate pressure from with oat—we will not have the dmnination of clubs. We certainly are content with the public opinion, and the public will, expressed through the authorized public organs." I believe these expressions would correctly represent the state of public feeling in this country at present ; but it is by no means inconsistent with this to be lieve that the people of the country wish to see the Govern ment administered for the sole purpose of promoting the interests of the country ; that they expect a patient consi deration of every thing which may be fairly suspected to partake of the character of an abuse, and if, after such pa tient investigation, abuse shall be proved to exist, that they will require its correction, first, from their hatred of abuse, and next, from their love and admiration for the ancient institutions of the country, which such abuses tend to de teriorate and impair. I believe that to be a correct inter pretation of the feelings of the people of this country, and I also believe that no Government can maintain itselfin public estimation which is not prepared, deliberately and purely, to act upon that principle. I am convinced, too, that not withstanding the exercise of a liberal Government, although it is the duty of public men, when they are impeded by no principles, to enter into the service of the Crown ; yet, I say, no man can be more convinced than I am that no Go vernment can stand unless it is supported by public opinion and possesses the public confidence. And here I will take the opportunity of saying, that I do not agree. with those who are prepared to support the Govern inent on the ground that we should look to measures and not men. I do not believe that any Government cars be stable which does not possess the confidence of the country. A mere cold approbation of particular enactments, without reference to the head that devised or the hand that executed them, is of no avail. In the transactions of private life reference is had, not to any particular measures, but to the general confidence which we have in men. It is that sort of confidence which can alone give stability to a Government. I have said that in private life it is not this or that specific act which gives con fidence in a man, but a conviction - of his sincerity and in tegrity. It is the same in the law. You do not receive Lord Lyndhurst or Sir James Scarlett with the approbation with which you have received the mention of their names this evening, on account of any particular acts of theirs, but because you are satisfied that their decisions will be grounded on a sincere desire to fulfil that which they con scientiously believe to be just and right. It is the same again in military affairs. I ask you what raised this country to the pinnacle of military glory which it attained during the last war, and what preserved it from the usual vicissi-" tudes of fortune ? It was not the numbers of the army— it was not the lines that were drawn here, or the fortifica tions that were erected there—it was not the skilful opera tions by which the proceedings of our army were marked. It was in conjunction with the native valour of British troops, their confidence in one magic and immortal name— (Cheers)—it was that sort of feeling which inspired the heart of the lowest soldier in the army with renewed energy, and nerved his arm with new vigour and force. And when the Government of the country was suddenly changed, what made the whole country acquiesce with silent confi dence in the decision of one man to obey the appeal of his Sovereign, and to fill with his single person the great chasm that had taken place ? It was not a re ference to this or that act which he had performed, or which he might perform, but it was the confidence of the people in his undaunted resolution and firmness—in his pure and disinterested patriotism, and in that singleness of purpose which led the same man who had been ready, in a crisis of extraordinary difficulty, to assume the reins of power at the command of his Sovereign, and for the le: inef i t of his country to relinquish it at his own advie on, when lie thought th a t th e - 0 and suoges tserved by Ids so doing. ' " i fic interests would be publie men—without then, again, without con fidenceen—without a reliance upon their inten ti°l' gnu upon their determination to fulfil any promises they may make, and to consult the real and permanent in terests of the country, and endeavour to affirm whatever they undertake—there can be no firm foundation for any Government. A mere approbation of the particular mea sures of any set of individuals is not sufficient security. I am sure the confidence of the people of England is not to be pro cured by rash or precipitate pledges for the removal of everything which at a first superficial view may appear to be an evil, or by undertaking to make every concession to the first impulse of popular opinion, or t 9 give relief from whatever may, upon a cursory glance, appear to press upon the people. By such rash and hasty pledges I am con vinced we should not attain the confidence of the people of' England. I admit it to be the duty ofthe Government to ex amine into every allegation of a grievance, and every sus picion of abuse. I admit it to be our duty, when the ex istence of that grievrnce is proved, and when the abuse can not be denied, to attempt relief ; but that relief should be adopted after mature deliberation, and after looking well to all the bearings of the proposed measure upon the various and complicated interests of the country. This is necessary, in order that the relief may be effectual and the abuse removed. I am asked why I have given no par ticular pledges upon specific measures. IQ) , answer is this— it is not a month since I left Rome. In the interval I have travelled from the south of Europe, and a Government has boon formed. Could any thing be more absurd or prepos terous than, before there has been time, that I should con clude specific arrangements, and pledge the Government to measures which they never may be able to carry into cif •ct. (Cheers,) I think it would be neither politic nor just to pursue that course ; and I think that the portion of public opinion which would be gained by doing so would be scarcer worth having.—(Cheers.) I have already indicated, through the :public Press, the intentions of his Majesty's Government, and the spirit in which it will be conducted. We will defend no abuse under the mistaken notion that it is useful to the Government to do so. We will resist a remedy for no grievance, on the supposition (which would be an erroneous one if we entertained) that it is not for the interest of a Government to conciliate the public good will by the redress of real grievances ; but I will not undertake, by pledging his Majesty's Government to the relief of par ticular evils, or the adoption of particular remedies, to debar them of the opportunity of giving a fair considera tion to all the remedies which may be proposed, and a deliberate application of such remedies as may be approved of to existing evils. I repeat that, possessed, as we are, of the entire confidence of the Crown, our aim and object will be to conciliate the good will and confidence of that portion of the community who are capable of form ing an enlightened judgment upon public affairs. Those classes do require the correction of abuses, but they wish those corrections to be made consistently with the preservation of the integrity and independence of all the in stitutions of the country. They wish them to be conducted in the ordinary manner, not at the expense of a collision and the consequent destruction of the independence of any of the different orders of the State. If we should be in the position that we can, in concurrence "with those whose good will it is desirable to possess, and - consistently with the in dependent section of the Lords and Commons, apply a re medy to existing abuses, that remedy will be more likely to give satisfaction and to be permanent, than if we expose the country to the chance of a collision, to the risk of forcible measures, and the danger of destruction to the indepen dence of one of the branches of the State. My Lord Mayor and Gentlemen, I shall conclude by again observing that, in the performance of our public duties, our object will be to conciliate the public confidence, in the first place, as our highest reward, and in the next as the most efficient instru ment of good government. It will be our earnest wish and hope to obtain that confidence—our most earnest hope, next to that hope which it cannot be unbecoming any Mi nister of this country to express here, that God may direct and prosper our honest endeavours for the advancement of true religion, and the safety, honour, and welfare of this great kingdom. The Right Hon. Baronet resumed his seat amidst loud cheers. The LORD MAYOR said he had next to call the attention of the company to a noble and distinguished individual, the great Captain of the age, who had not only fought the battles of his country, but conferred upon her this im portant benefit—that he had defended upon foreign shores her interests and her liberties. Having spoken of that dis tinguished individual as a great warrior, it was equally in cumbent upon him to speak of him as a great Statesman, who was well calculated to direct the energies and resources of the country, and had proved his capability of doing so, by the integrity and firmness which he had shown on a recent occasion, and for which he had always been so re markable. But it was not only as a warrior and a States man that the Duke of Wellington was known to the citizens of this metropolis. He had always shown himself a great friend to the city of London, and was a great promoter of the improvements which had been carried to such an extent, and which. when completed, would add another civic laurel to his brow, which the citizens of London would never forget. He gave the health of " the Duke of Wellington, the great Captain of the age, and long life and prosperity to him." The toast was drunk with loud cheers. The Duke of WELLINGTON then rose and spoke to the fallowing effect :—My Lord Mayor and Gentlemen, often as I have received the approbation of the city of London it has never been more deeply interesting to my mind than on this occasion. The Lord Mayor has been pleased to remind you, Gentlemen, of the military duties in which I have been employed in the so:vice of the country. I see myself surrounded at this table by those who enabled me to perform those services, and I feel that I can never sufficiently repay the debt of gratitudewhich Lowe to them and the soldiers under our command, for this and other marks of approbation which I have received from you. Gentlemen, the Lord Mayor has likewise been pleased to call your attention to the services which I was inAbled to render to the city of London when I was in otlice, in respect to various useful ornaments in the city (luring the period of the construction of London bridge. On that occasion I did no more than my duty in the pub lic capacity in which I was engaged, and I was most happy in being able in any manner to co-operate with those mem bers of your Corporation who undertook that great work, and were able to carry it into execution. The Lord Mayor has also been pleased to advert to certain transactions pre vious to the formation of the present Government. Gen t!emen, I never shall in the whole course of my life—l ne ver can be sufficiently grateful for the serene tranquillity that prevailed, and the marks of confidence which I re ceived from the great portion of the community, particu larly from the mercantile, commercial, and other proprie tors of capital in this great city during the important pe riod, when it was my duty to undertake the service to which the Lord Mayor and my Right Hon. Friend so elo quently alluded. I hope and trust that the country re ceived no injury during that period.—(Cheers.) I hope and trust that the interests of the country suffered no pre judice during the time that the Government was committed to my hands ; but if I have that hope and trust, it is be cause during that period I experienced the confidence of the great proprietors of this city, and of the country gene rally. My Lord Mayor and Gentlemen, I once more re turn my thanks for the honour you have done me. Sir ROBERT PEEL rose to propose the health of the Lord Mayor. He said that the long intercourse he had had with the municipal authorities of the city of London— an intercourse marked with the utmost cordiality and zeal ous mutual co-operation, enabled him to form some judg ment of the qualifications required for the office of Lord Mayor, and . having that experience, and possessing that. knowledge, he congratulated the citizens of London upon having that office filled by a gentleman who had already had considerable experience in public life, and who, to his other recommendations, added the merit of having the courage and resolution to act upon the dictates of his own con science, when he felt himself to be in the right. It gave him great satisfaction, therefore, to pr o p ose th e h ea l t h o f the ‘‘Right Hon. the Lord Mayor."—(Cheers.) The LORD MAYOR said that he had felt much 1 , -,se em barrassment when speaking of great and renowT:,ed charac ters, whose merits left room for observat4m, than now, when he was called upon to speak of himself. In the high and important office which he had the honour to fill—that of Lord Mayor of the first metropolis in the world, re nowned for its ancient institutions, its commercial import ance, and its political position, a duty devolved upon hint which required all the energies which he possessed, and probably a great deal more ; but he could only say, that he would endeavour to discharge that duty with fidelity, zeal, and independence ; not to be intimidated by the prevalence of principles which would go to subvert all Government, but at the same time not blind to the correction of the abuses of our excellent institutions. The Right Hors. Ba ronet had spoken of his acting upon the dictates of his own mind. He hoped be should always exert the energies of his mind in such a way as to yield satisfaction to intelligent and upright men. His endeavour should be to unite, as far as he could, men of all political parties, and to inspire confidence in those who conducted the Government. The Duke of WELLINGTON proposed "the health oftim Lady Mayoress, and expressed the debt which he and all the company owed to the Lord Mayor for having invited them to his table that day, and still more for Iv.lving prevailed upon his Lady to grace the board with company. In her presence he could not attempt t() say more than that the Lady Mayoress showed herfrl t worthy of her great station, and was a model and PAample for her sex. The Loan May o . J.daYort returned thanks for th e LadY , and assured the company that in all cases where ..er exertions could be useful to support the good old cause of King and Constitution, she would be found ready to come forward for the purpose. After this toast the ladies retired. The LORD MAYOR then proposed " the health of the Lord Chief Baron of England." The Chief Baron (Sir J. SCARLETT) said he should be very insensible and ungrateful indeed if he were not deeply impressed with the honour which had this day been done him. The approbation with which his name bad been men tioned by two of the most distinguished individuals at that table, and the mode in which it had been received when the Lord Mayor proposed his health, impressed him with the most grateful feelings. If he merited the applause of that splendid company, it must have been by ende avour i ng t o discharge his duty in every situation in which it had pleased Providence to place him ; and be would only say that in the situation in which his Majesty had now placed him, he should equally endeavour to discharge his duty, and he looked to no other object but the faithful discharge of an important duty. If, in doing so, he could secure the ap probation of his fellow-citizens, it would be the highest re ward he ought or could receive. The next toast was " the Speaker of the House of Com mons," which was drunk with much enthusiasm. The SPEAKER thanked the Lord Mayor most respectfully for the honour which he had done him. He should be the last man in the world to under-rate the importance of the duties of the station which he had the honour to hold for nearly 18 years. He had endeavoured to discharge those duties to the best of his ability, and he had the approbation of his own conscience on that score. If he had performed any public service in doing so, he had received his highest reward by the recognition of those services in the presence of so much rank, talent, and high consideration as were to be found in the company which his Lordship had done hint the honour to invite him to meet, and the manner in which the toast had been received filled him with a deep sense of gratitude, and he might be permitted to say, with the high:- est, and he hoped, just pride.—(Cheers.) The Loan MAYOR now called the attention of' his fruests to a merchant ; who had always been ready to defend the rights and interests of the City of Londmh stud he chal- CITY WARD ELECTIONS.
