no doubt my friend Aspinall will do, and many other
subjects, there is one point to which, I wish to draw
your attention, and that is one which may be said to be
a pecuniary one, and that was interesting to all ; hut
when I find a vast body of men ready to put aside their
few leisdre hours; to sacrifice their pleasure, and were
• fkdy,to sgrigde Mick wages for their
frier 4ere hound to thinit ttiAt thl faqir a
deep interest id the TrioreilleWt. ay so, bee a Use. when
the pocket as tonehed, it, is ki;at ineen6e, to. the
feelings., But. I have.. 91;servci that., it has iii9Yeked
another feeling. I have studied the faces oftile, fien
4e before rpe,, and I ; am sure that.they have—many of
them—wives and families, and.it is through the .affection
that is entertaiued for those dear wives .andtfamiliee that
they had niadd tlidge sacrifices, for. !" defence and not
defrance." I have only another to say, ang that
is, with regard to the officers. They all knew Cap-
tain Newlands, and the respect he was held in by all ;
and the men, by the presentation of a splendid sword,
had shown the esteem in which they held Mr. Ellison ;
and there was Mr. Picton, who had forsaken his pencil
and taken up the sword, and perhaps one day he might
become as great a general as General Sir Thomas Pic-
ton, who died so gloriously on the field of Waterloo.
Mr. Beloe concluded by returning. the thanks of the
Engineer Company of Volunteers to the Mayor and the
fof their kind attendance and taking a part

which Lieut.-Colonel Uotsfleld prop,Te4 ,Thee cheers

most heartily responded to.
The MAYOR, upon coming forward to return thanks,
was most cordially greeted. He said—Ladies and gen-
tlemen, if I have in the slightest degree contributed to
the success of this most interesting ceremony, you have
more than repaid me by the most flattering approval you

behalf of wy brother magi:Argos, I beg to return any

to a termination.

LIVERPOOL POLICE COtRT.-YESTERDAY.

(Before Mr. RAFFLES.)
MR. DAVIS'S TRICK.
A very bewildered-looking fellow, named William
Davis, with firy red hair, that was evidently a stranger
to a comb for time out of mind, was brought up by
police-officer No. 127 on the following charge. He

fellow knows nothing about it, for he was more drunk
than the other. The bridewelhkeeper was called and
said the officers were quite sober, but the prisoner was
very drunk. His worship sent the prisoner to gaol for two
mouths, in default of paying £2 fine for the assault.
