The banquet, for which invitations had been issued in the joint names of the Lord Mayor and Mr. Alderman and Sheriff Wire, took place in the Guildhall. The de corations were of the usual character, consisting chiefly of banners and numerous devices, in which—somewhat strangely in a civic hall—ancient armour and weapons ai formed the most p rom i nen t f ea t ures ; b ut t h e coup d'ceil, where the gas stars and the lines of gas jets which mark the tracery of the walls shone out in all their brilliancy, was most striking and imposing. On the right of the Lord Mayor were the late Lord Mayor, the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of Aberdeen, the Earl of Clarendon, Lord J. Russell, M.P., Lord Can ning, Mr. Sheriff and Mrs. Wire, Lord Palmerston, Sir C. Wood, Sir J. Graham, the American Minister, the 32 Danish Charge d'Affaires, and th e Mi nister of Paraguay. On the Lord Mayor's left were the Lady Mayoress, the late Lady Mayoress, the Marquis and Marchioness of Salisbury, Lord and Lady Mandeville, and Sir IV. Molesworth. Among the company we observed Lord Hatherton, Mr. Cardwell, M.P., Sir J. Patteson, Mr. M. T. Baines, M.P., Sir J. Pakington, M.P., Mr. S. Walpole, M.P., Mr. G. C. Lewis, M.P., Sir C. G. Youn g , Si r J. Dod son, the Recorder and Mrs. S. Wortley, the Lord Mayor's Chaplain, the late Lord Mayor's Chaplain, Mr. E. Ball, M.P,, Mr. Schollfi e ld, M.P . , Si r R . W . Car den, Mr. J. ilson, M.P., M r. Ch ap li n, M . P ., L ord D. Stuart, M.P., Mr. Masterman, M.P., and many of the aldermen, members of . the Common Council, and officers of the corporation. The Earl of Aberdeen and Lord John Russell were loudly cheered as they passed through the hall on their arrival, previously to their presentation to the Lord Mayor and Mr. Sheriff Wire, in the reception-room. At the conclusion of the banquet Mr. D. R. Harker, the toastmaster, proclaimed as usual, a " Welcome" to the guests, and the "loving cup" went round. Grace was then sung by a very efficient corps of vocalists, comprising Miss Ransford, Miss Eyles, Miss Bassano, Mr. Ransford, Mr. W. E. Ransford, Mr. Francis, &c. The LORD MAYOR gave, i n succession. the healths of "The Queen," and of " Prince Albert, the Prince of Wales, and the remaining branches of the Royal Family," which were enthusiastically received. The next toast was, " The Navy and the Army," in proposing which the LORD MAYOR expressed his hope that this country might continue to enjoy the blessings of peace ; but observed it was fortunate for them that, although they could not number among their warriors a Nelson or a Wellington, they might have the advantage of the services of men, in both branches of the service, who were trained in the school of those immortal heroes, if the neeessity for their aid should arise. (Cheers.) Sir J. GRAHAM, in returning thanks for the navy, said —he could only give that distinguished company the assurance—trite, but true—that, whether in war or in peace, the British navy would be found ready to do its duty. (Cheers.) If war should be imminent, and an enemy should be found to insult the British flag, the British navy would be ready to maintain the honour of that flag. In concert with the allies of this country, it would be the duty of the navy to promote the observ ance of treaties, which were the best securities of peace. (Cheers.) Another thing the British navy was at all times ready to do —namely to protect the commerce and trade of this country, which were the life and strength of the British nation. He felt highly flattered in being the representative of the British navy, to whom the approba tion of such a meeting would afford great encourage. ment. (Cheers.) Lieutenant-General Sir J. WILSON briefly acknow ledged the toast on behalf of the army. The LORD MAYOR next gave " Prosperity to the City of London and the trade thereof," observing that the present prosperity of the city was unprecedented, and that he hoped it might long continue to boast of the most extensive trade in the world. The toast having been duly honoured, The LORD MAYOR proposed, in highly complimentary terms, the health of his predecessor in the civic chair. Mr. Alderman CHALLIS having returned thanks. The LORD MAYOR next proposed the health of the foreign Ministers—(cheers)—coupling with the toast the name of the American Minister. Mr. BUCHANAN, in responding to the toast, said he performed the duty, although it had unexpectedly de volved upon him, with hearty and cheerful goodwill. If his diplomatic associates had all been present they could not have failed to be gratified at the manner in which the toast had been received, and, in their names as well as for himself, he begged to return thanks for the distin guished honour conferred upon them. He confessed that he had been very much struck with the gorgeous spectacle lie had witnessed that evening. He had read, in his own land, descriptions of these splendid pageants of the middle ages, but the reality was fully equal to the description. This spectacle had made a deep and lasting impression upon his imagination in this utilitarian age. His country was progressive, yet he knew how to admire such a magnificent spectacle of ancient times. This was truly the age of utilitarianism. What a desecration of chivalry and romance it was to place a steamboat on the Lake of Killarney ! (A laugh.) He might mention, as a commentary on the age in which they lived, that, at the very moment to-day when he finished reading a de scription of this pageant, he received a letter from his own country making the most minute inquiries as to the mode in which a very distinguished statesman in this country proposed to consume the smoke of London. ("Hear, hear," and a laugh.) This was an idea which had not yet presented itself to the minds of his country men. He (Mr. Buchanan) did not profess himself to be a diplomatist. Very far from it. But in this age diplo lomacy had rendered important service to the world. The first and highest duty of a diplomatist was to exer cise all his faculties, consistently with his instructions, to preserve peace, and to promote friendly relations among the nations of the earth. This task, though less glorious, was far more usefnl to mankind than that of the:warrior ; and he ventured to hope that it might be successfully performed by the distinguished diploma. tists who were at present intrusted with negotia tions on which the peace of the world might depend. (Loud cheers.) The LORD MAYOR (after proposing " The health of of the Lord Chancellor," who briefly returned thanks), said they were on that occasion honoured with the pre sence of many of her Majesty's Ministers—(cheers) — and among them the head of a Government which, it was well known, had exerted itself to the utmost to pre serve the peace of the world. (Loud cheers.) The most unwearied endeavours had been made by the Cabi net to maintain the peace of Europe and of the world at large, and he had much pleasure in proposing ` 4 The health of the Earl of Aberdeen and her Majesty's Ministers." (The toast was received with loud cheering.) The Earl of ABERDEEN rose to respond to the toast The noble earl said—My Lord Mayor, I have to return you my sincere thanks for . the very flattering manner in which you have proposed, and in which this company have received, the health of my colleagues and myself. Perhaps it is not too much to hope that, with regard to persons in our situation, a favourable construction, at least, may be placed upon our motives and intentions in the discharge of our duty. (Cheers.) It is true that we are the servants of the Crown ; and happily, in these days, such service is not incompatible with the most sin cere desire to promote the welfare, the happiness, and the prosperity of the people. (Cheers.) Notwithstanding the prosperous condition of this country in all its great interests, and the wonderful advances that are made in every department of art, science, and industry, I am quite aware that much yet remains to be done, the suc cess of which may be promoted by her Majesty's Minis ters. Much improvement, much reform, in the condi tion of the people, whether- social, moral, or political, is demanded. I know, my Lord Mayor, that much is expected from us .by the country, and I hope we shall be found ready and willing to answer to the call. In a country such as this, and in an age of civilisation like that in which we live, these are the real triumphs—these are the glories —to which any Government ought to aspire. (Cheers.) .1 trust that nothing will happen to impede or to check the progress of those improvements and of that reform which I so ardently desire to see effected. (Hear.) They can only be successfully carried out by the continu ance of that tranquillity which we have so long enjoyed —and in the absence of all disturbing causes, whether foreign or d omest i c. (Renewed cheers.) My Lord Mayor, some time ago, w h en I l ast had the honour of being the guest of your predecessor in office, I made a . declaration, perhaps in the hearing of some now present that the policy of her Majesty's Government was a policy of peace. (Hear, and cheers.) I desire, on this occa sion, to repeat that declaration. (Renewed cheering.) I will go further, and I will say that no other principle of policy will ever be announced by me. (Cheers.) But, as emphatic as these words may be, they are not to be understood as signifying the impossibility of war. On the contrary, we know full well that this cannot be the case ; but they signify that so far as I am concerned, war will never be undertaken by me w ith ou t re l uc tance, and never but when demanded—plainly t demanded—by a due sense of that honour and th e interests o _ b of e he this country.

(Cheers.) The days of aristocratic privileges were now happily gone by, never to return, and he believed the House of Lords maintained its high position from the deference which it exhibited to public opinion, and from its willingness to receive impulses from without upon all questions affecting the general as compared with whathe might call the class interests of the country. (Hear, hear.) Thus, on a recent occasion, when a great social, political, and commercial question was under consideration, they had seen the House of Lords laying aside what some might call its prejudices, and others its interests, and voluntarily deferring to the unmistakeabl e w i s h of the people. (Cheers.) Of this he was oure, that there was no body of men more anxious 108 23i 1041 15i / . to obtain and to deserve the good opinion of their fel low-countrymen. (Loud cheers.) ( The LORD MAYOR next gave " The House of Com mons," coupling with it the nam e o f L ord J. Russell, who, he said, had secured universal respect from his advocacy of every measure of public improvement. Lord J. RUSSELL said, that whatever view the House of Commons might take of any question in the first in stance, they invariably pursued that course which they believed would be most conducive to the public welfare, and this circumstance he attributed to the practice of free discussion. The Lord Mayor had alluded in the course of his observations, to the inquiry now in progress with regard to the corporation of London. As a represen tative of the city of London, he (Lord J. Russell had been proud to find, when the inquiry was first proposed, that, instead of shrinking from it, the corporation openly and manfully courted inquiry. (Hear, and cheers), and he felt sure they would in the same spirit lend their aid to the full prosecution of that inquiry. (Hear, hear.) If there were abuses,F he h ope d they would be corrected ; lif reforms were need, he hoped they would be made ; but he thought they should proceed upon the principle on which the corporation was founded—the free election by the citizens of their own magistrates. Lord PALMERSTON observed, that if the distinguished guest of the Lord Mayor, the representativ e o f t h e United States of Am e ric a , our. , cousins, he (Lord Pal merston) might almost say our brothers on the other side of the Atlantic, with whom he trusted we should always maintain the most friendly and intimate rela tions—(cheers)—if that distinguished man had been im pressed by the magnificence of that banquet, he could not fail to have been struck by the galaxy of beauty which surrounded him on every side. (Cheers) He (Lord Palmerston) would say with confidence—and with out meaning offence to the representative of any other country—that that beauty could not be exceeded by any nation of the earth. (Cheers and laughter.) He was sure the gentlemen present would cordially join drinking " The Health of the Lady Mayoress and the Ladies." The LORD MAYOR returned thanks, and gave "The Chief Justice of the Court of Queen's Bench, and the Judges." . . - Lord CAMPBELL, in acknowledging the toast, observed, that some persons had talked as if the result of the present commission of inquiry into the corporation of London would be the abolition of that corporation. He hoped, however, that no such result would follow, but that in the reign of Albert the Tenth the monarch would be invited to receive the loyal hospitalities of the city of London. (Cheers and laughter.) If the corporation were to be removed at one fell swoop, he thought a great sensation would be created among the Courts of Europe than would be caused by any other political event—(a laugh)—for when they heard that the office of Lord Mayor . was abolished, they would believe that a revolu tion had indeed commenced. (Cheers and laughter.) He would remind his noble friend (Lord J. Russell) that when the general measure of corporation reform was proposed, he (L or d C ampbell) wished to include the corporation of London, for he believed that to reform whatever abuses existed would be true Conservatism. (Hear, and cheers.) Such reform ought, however, to be cautious, safe, and gradual. lie had been glad to learn that before the.: commission of in qu i ry was ap pointed the corporation had themsel ves offered every facility for the investigation—(cheers), and he trusted the result would be, not to destroy the corp orat i on, but to place it upon a more firm and satisfactory basis. The Loan MAYOR, gave the health of Mr. Alderman and Sheriff WIRE, who, in returnin g thanks, expressed his determination, while upholding the privileges of the city as far as he could, to advocate whatever reforms were requ i s ite and in conformity with the spirit of the age. (Cheers.) Several other toasts were proposed, and the company then retired to the drawing-room, where coffee and other refreshments were provided, LOSS OF THE SAPPHIRE. STATE OF TRADE.

Yesterday, in ' Liverpool, this " killing frost" was turned t o a li tt l e account for about an hour, when it ceased to have any effect. To-day at our own market, the German buyers, whose customers on the other side are lightly supplied, being afraid to do r wrong, are li m iti ng their orders to immediate wants. The home buyers are taking extremely little. There is an inconsiderable inquiry for India yarns, but not even that for th e me di um and better kind of 40-inch shirtings. We understand that the employers of Manchester and Salford have determined on reducing wages in such de grees as to l eave th em fi ve per cen t. i n weaving and ten per cent, in spi nn i ng a b ove th e ra t es paid at the end of 1852. C ar di ng i s t o rema i n un t ouc h e d. The time for adopting this measure is to be determined at the next meeting. At Burnley, yesterday, it was announced to a meeting of the unemployed that, as all the money that could be obtained would be required in fighting the battle at Preston, and in the expenses of the.organi satisn, no aid could be afforded to the turn-outs in o th er places. This an nouncemen t gave rise to a good deal of discontent. ROCHDALE, Nov. 7.—There has not been much change n the flannel market to-day. If lower prices would have been submitted to, more business would have been transacted. Wool has been rather firmer to-day, aris ing principally from the London wool sales, where bet ter prices were obtained during the latter part of last week. During this last week, two attempts have been made by the Preston and other turn-outs to get up a public meeting in their favour in Rochdale, but without effect. One meeting was to have been held in the pub lic hall, but the party taking it forfeited the deposit ; and the other meeting was to have been held behind the post-office.

As far as relates to the making of pig iron, the total absence of any stocks of ironstone, and the still diminishing amount raised in our various coal-fields, must strike the most casual ob server, and, when connected with the impracticability of any new resources being opened, afford just ground for expecting an upward movement in prices. The prices of iron may now be fairly quoted—Bars 9/. per ton, hoops 101., plates 11/. Pig iron is fetching 4/. to Si. 55. according to quality. PRICE OF BREAD.—The prices of wheaten bread in the metropolis are from 11d. to 111(1. ; of household ditto, 10d. to 104 d ; some bakers are selling from Bd. to ; and League Bread Company's, 9d. per 41b. loaf, weighed on delivery. THE LABOUR QUESTION AT BURT.—It is expected that to-day 15 of the manufacturing firms will bring their concerns to a stand until the matter in dispute be net tled. On Saturday evening last, there occurred a cir cumstance which for several hours endangered the peace of the town. It is stated that Mr. Boardman, pork butcher, Fleet-street, Bury, tore a collecting -card be longing to the operatives. This circumstance so 6Xas perated a number of the operatives that they remained in front of the shop for some time; the crowd continu ally collected, and ultimately the windows of the shop were broken. Mr. Boardman's premises were placed under the protection of the police ' and he was obliged to close his shop consid era bl y before the usual time. No further molestation has been attempted. The Sapphire was a fine new ship of 1,140 tons bur den, and was commanded by Captain Bird. She ship ped a valuable cargo a few weeks ago at the Broomie law, Glasgow, and sailed from the roads on Saturday for Melbourne, Australia, having 110 passengers on board. At midnight of Friday she was to the south- ward of the Copeland Lights. The night was very dark, but the weather was not what a seaman would call bad. The position of the ship was then quite well known to the captain, who ordered her to hove round in a tack off the land, but in doing so she unfortunately missed stays, and in spite of every effort to wear her went right ashore, broadside on, about 20 minutes past 12 o'clock, at what is called Barrel Isle Rock, Bar Point, about a mile north of Ballyhalbert, and about 22 miles to the south-east of Belfast. As may be anticipated, the event caused great alarm ameng the passengers and crew. The position in which the ship went ashore was favourable, as had she gone on stern foremost it is more than pro bable few might have been spared to tell the tale of the disaster. Captain Bird behaved with the greatest coolness and courage in the emergency ; and the passengers and crew strengthened his hands on the trying occasion by obeying his orders for the general preservation with the greatest submission and alacrity. There was another circumstance favourable to the predicament of those on board. The vessel had got on shore about high water, still the ship lay beating violently upon the rocks with the action of the sea for several hours, the passengers being all the while in the most dreadful state of suspense. About an hour after the ship struck the mainmast went overboard, and she was still thumping on the rocks ; and about three o'clock a.m. the foremast was cut away, and the ship eased a good deal and became firmly embedded in the rocks. As the tide receded it became apparent to those on board that there was every chance of escape ; but little was done till daybreak, when boats came alongside from the shore and assisted in landing the passengers first on a rock, and thence to the shore. A good deal of luggage was also got landed on the rocks ; but it is feared that little of the cargo will be saved, while the'vessel is likely to go to pieces. When she begins to break up, however, a good deal of the cargo may be floated ashore. •
