MR. GOSCHEN AT THE MANSION-HOUSE.

Last evening, Mr. Gosehen, who was amongst
a number of guests entertained at the Mansion•honse, in
returning thanks for the toast of the House of Commons,
proposed by the Lord Mayor, said he did not wish to join
issue with any one as to whether or not the House of Com-
mons might properly be called an anzuat assembly, but be
was obliged to take an exception to his beteg selected to
return thanks for an assembly of which he was (for the
present) no longer a member. (A laugh.) The Lord Mayor
bad forgotten that he had placed him in thedelicate position
of having to speak for a body to whom he hoped to belong,
though from whom be was for the time disassociated.
How could he return thanks without betraying matters
that most come before the citizens of London before many
weeks elapsed! Nevertheless, in the name of those with
whom be worked in the last parliament, and with whom he
hoped to work in the next, he ventured to thank the Lord
Mayor far the way in which he had spoken of the House of
Commons. Their work was now before them, and bard
work it would be. It was a very different thing to stand on
the hustings and to stand on the floor of the House of Com-
mons. There were many drawbacks, as there were many
pleasures in the life of a member of the House of Commons.
He bad had to take a decision which he could not
take without some perplexity, for speaking there in the
Mansion•house, and in the company of the chief magistrate
of the City of London, it was no slight thing to say of
himself that he had elected to give up the occupation in
which he had been engaged for many years, to leave the
fruit on the boughs for others to gather, and to surrender
an interest in a firm which had taken half a unitary to
build up. (Hear, bear.) He had been called on to make
his election, and be bad preferred the prospects of political
life. It remained for the citizens of London who first
returned him to parliament to say whether they would
endorse his decision. As a merchant be had committed
suicide under extenuating circumstances. (A laugh.) And
lif he wu able to devote his undivided time and
attention to the service of his constituents and
his country, whatever others might say and
think, be did not think his friends in the City would
undervalue the importance of a step which separated him,
not from the representation of commerce or from those
who were engaged in it, but from the memories which
cling round ton years of active life, and would separate his
name from actual buboes, end sever him for ever from
Schedule Cof the booms tax. (A laugh.) It remised
for hint to say that be intended to devote himself to the
best services of the State, bat not es an ofilaireseker or an
idler, and he thanked them in the name of the House of
Commons for the compliment they bad been pleased to pay
them. Some other toasts followed appropriate to the
oeusioe, sad Kr. Charles Dickens having with charectoristie
pace proposed the health of the Lady Mayoress, the ems.
pony separated about half•put ten o'clock.
