' Mr. SMITH returned thanks.

Co opting with it the heath of Mr. Reale.
Mr. BEALE, fa returning thanks, begged to thank the
Led Mayor ter his heepttalhy end Madams.
The LORD MAYOR pooped " To* Sorb Eastern Rail.

shairmast.
Mr. MACGREGOR felt proud to ha* the honour of re-
turning thanks for the South Eastern Company. If other
railways might have loge expectations in eonnexion with
the peat exhibition to which referee* had beet made, and
whisk the Lord Mayor had taken as howonrobie pia in
protesting, surely, not least must be a railway which had
one terminus in St. Saviour's, la Southwark, sad the other
at St. Sophia's, In Consenting*. (Hew. hair.) The

The next toast was, " The Chairman and Director' of the
York and North Midland Compsny," together with the
health of Mt. Thompson, who returned thanks.
The LORD MAYOR woe mew about to proms the
brisk of a irked of his own, a patina who bad dose
moth to promote the !ninths* iris, and esietally in regard
to the Itirtheesaing exhibities ; be was glad to see that gen-
tlemen present with thus em that occasion, and he was sure
that they would all filtialf Joie him In drinking "The

most appropriately eassokeeL (Rear, hear.) The tort
was &nee loud ohms.
Mr. PAITON.—My Lard Mayor, I feel exceedingly
flattered by the kind warm in whets yea have premed my
health, and I am eittemely got fUI to all the gentlemon
pees* for having se warmly respenited to the to=
have eannected my name, my lord, with the Greed
ll:tibia* of 1811, and have 'Ended to the preparations hr

opportunity for entering into any &swipe's. ef the peat
building which I have desiead fat that puerto, boa per-
haps you will allow me to observe, that ■ sobaklllig a
Cisegw, I was not actuated by any selfish or senefeell views
se to my own interest" or my own abilities. The only *feet
I had in view was the success of the exhibition. I saw there

it great j e undertaking fading, seeing the
powerful stemmata pat forward from day to day
against the plans which had been proposed. I
thought, under the circumstance', I eouM lead a
helping hand ; I set diligently to work, and never
relaxed or rested an instant in the task I had imposed upon
myself until I had effected the object I had In view.
(Cheen.) I know the building I have designed Is coceidered
a gnat novelty, but it is no experiment, there is not a (ea-
ten in it whnla hoe not been already earned out at Chats-
worth and other peels before. I felt perfectly certain,
therefore, of the result, and I claim no merit for the idea.
In doing what I did I did no more than every Englishman
should do on a like occasion ; I saw the difficulty, and cm*
forward to do what I could to meet it. (Cheers.) With
regard to the exhibition Malt I believe it will tend more to
the benefit of mankind than say eirounastanee whisk has
ecearved, not in the history of this squatty only, but of the
world, by uniting nations together la the hoods of oommwe
dal and peaceful relations. M friend, Sir P. Smith, has
referred to the ea vantage of railways in the conveyance of
troops, I ama railway director, but I hope, as long
asremain so, that the railways of this country will
be employed in carrying the emblems of pease rather
than the miens of war, sad I believe we Waal do more is
preserving peace, that we shall achieve more lastlag, though
eon peaces) victories, by exhibiting cur arts and meaufae.
tares, and laying before the world the products of enable/ma,
titan we have ever plaid by the nee expressive and
imeasedul ware. (Chun.) This country has done the
greatest honour to Itself in proposing this exhibition, this re.
union of the nations of the weld. (Hear, hear.) It is the
first exhibition of its kind, but I cannot believe it will be the
last. (Cheers.) I anticipate the most happy welts from
it. I expect our friends on the other aide of the Admen
who have now become a greet people like melees, will
tome sad revisit the country from which they apron, they
will And that mother coadry still a stout oak casting teeth
vigorous branches, which taking toot is other climes, shall
In du time spring up to be great nations, as they are them-
selves, still happy and coutented ender the blu stings of a tree
oeseltutien. (Hear, hear.) I anticipate the greatest
advantage from this direct knowledge of the adnaterrs of
our institution. If the exhibition does nothing else, I to
Hue it will cement the nations together in relations of psees
and amity; and all I wish and feel anxious for is, that we
shall give to the inhabitants of every country in the weld
who may visit us, reek a reception as shall make them
return happy and satisfied to their own country, and record
to their friends slid their seighboun the benefits which null
from the cultivation of the ses of peace. (Loud cheers.)
The LORD MAYOR next gave " The High Sheriff of
Savoy," which was acknowledged by Mr. Faselirliu,D,
who proposed "The health of the Lady Mayoress."
The LORD MAYOR, after sake° wledging the compli-
ment, gave "Captain Staab and Ms oaken of the guard
milers/ companies," which Captain Huns duly acknow-
ledged.
" The Engineers of the Companies," coupled with the
health of Mr. Watkins, which; having been acknowledged
by Mr. WAsums, the eompeay separated.

OUTRAGE ON A MAGISTRATE AND HIS
DAL:MITER.

On Saturday, at the Borough Court, Stockport,
throe ruffianly looking fellows, named Thomas Curley, John
Riley, and Henry Dawson Temple, were charged with the
following !natal and wanton outrage upon Mr. Baker, one
of the borough magistrates, and hh daughter.— Mr. W.
H. Ashton appeared on the part of the prisosees.
Kr. Baker stated that, on Thu sday night last, be was at
an evening party at the house of his son, on Dodge-hill.
He was nturning horn., about two o'clock in the morning,
accompanied by his daughter, in one of Messrs. Helms
and Bbuttleworth'e deranges; and when passing along
Cbestergate, he suddenly heard a shout; and directly
after, several atones were thrown, and the windows of
the carriage broken. The horse then began to wear
backwards, and the doors of the carriage flew open. The
witness and his daughter then got out, and were imme-
diately surrounded by from forty to sixty men, armed with
bludgeons. Some of the web were beating the horse, and
Hammond, the coachman, whom they dragged off the box.
Witness asked whether they meant to rob and murder, and
told them that he was • magistrate, and was retuning with
his daughter from a party. They, however, continued to
surround witness and 6L daughter, flourishing their staves
uit they were about to strike him. Wheats called out to
know if there was any one who would protect him and his
daughter, and a watchman then came up and said that he
would. Wilms and kW Biker took him arm and crossed
the street, followed by the mob. Witness %eked the watch-
man whether he knew any of the men, on which another
about was raised. The watchman then stepped back, and,
while speaking to some of the mob, wu felled to the ground
with a bludgeon. Witness and hie daughter were immediately
earroneded, and witness again called out for easietanee A
man:then came from amongst thecrowd and said he would pro-
tect them. They took his arm and walked to the Wellinertota
Bridge, when he said that he could go no further. They
then walked towards home, and shortly after meta coach, in
which they drove to witness's hones. In his mosseexamtna-
tion by Mr. Aehton, Mr. Baker said it was the eve of the
elections, but he had not attended any of the committee
meetings, neither had he taken any part whatever in the
elections. _

Sergeant Longson stated that shout 10 o'clock on Thum
day night he was called into Chestergate to diem*, a
mob, amongst whose were the prisoners Curley and Riley.
who were armed with bludgeons. The mob were dis-
persed, bat the two prisoners continued walking backwards
and forwards near the Wheat Sheaf public house.
Thomas Woriley, a coachman, in the employment of
Mears. Thiene and Shuttleworth, who accompanied the
driver Hammond, confirmed Mr. Baker's evidence re-
specting the attack on the carriage. The prisoner Temple
was one of those who seized the hors*, while Hammond
was dragged from his seat. As loon as the witness could
he seized the reins, and drove back martinis the police
station •; but did not know, until he got to the White Lion,
that Mr. and Miss Baker were not inside the coach.
Mr. Sledden, a surgeon, residing in Chestergate, said that
between six and seven o'clock on Thursday ever ing, he saw
the printery, Carley and Riley, coming down the street
with Mr. Henry Lee, who was walking between them. As
soon as they got oppuite the Wheat Sheaf, Mr. Lee left
them, and they continued to walk up and down from John
Lee's corner to the Wneat Sheaf until halt-pest two o'clock
in the morning. Witness observed the prisoners from his
bedroom window, and saw them stop every coach that
pawed. Soon after two o'clock, he heard a coach coming
down the street. A loud and peculiar whistle was then
' given, and he heard Curley shout "Stop the coseh,"
Smash the windows." Witness immediately got up,
opened the window, and saw a coach standing in the road,
surrounded by a mob armed with staves and other weapons.
They were boating the hone and driver. Curley was one of
the principals acting in the mob.
Catharine Fielden, a married woman, residing in Cheater-
gate, stated that about two o'clock on Friday morning she
was awakened, looked out of the window, and saw the attack
on the carriage ; but she was nut able to identify any of the
prisoners.
The witnesses were croes-examtned by Mr. Ashton at con-
siderable length, with a view to show that the attack on
Mr. Baker had arisen in mistake; and that, as it way the eve
of the election, the prisoners were under the Impression that
the earrings contained a " bottling party," who were con-
veying away some of the voters.
After some consultation, the bench adjourned the case
until Monday, for the production of the driver, Hammond,
who had gone home to Maticlesfield.
Mr. Ashton applied to have the prisoners admitted to bail,
bat the bench refused.

On Monday the primers were nein bronebt up, when.
in addition to the magistrates present on Saturday, Mears.
Thomas Eskrigge, S. it. Carrington, J. Newton, and W.
Andrews, were on the bench.

Previous to the opening of the cue, Mr. Ashton said that
he purpcsed calling Mr. Eskrigge as • witness for the defence,
and he therefore hope 1 that gentleman would not take any
part in adjudicating the case.
Mr. Maine said that he considered the application of
Mr. Ashton a most disgraceful one, as Mr. Ashton must well
know that there could be no oecaston to sell hint as a witness.
He could not, by any possibility, know anything of the mat-
ter, and therefore it could only be done with the intention of
frightening him from the bench : Digit would not have that
effect, as he should continue to sit.
Mr. Ashton disclaimed may disrepect to Mr. Eskrigge, bar
he said his inetructions were tonsil that gentleman..

After some further remarks, the case, oaths application of
Mr. Baker, was then gone into de novo.
In addition to the witnesses beard on Saturday al
/Ahe' were examined, and corroborated the evidence as to
the prisoners being armed with sticks, and picketing in Chas-
tergate on Thursday.
Ilammond, the coachman, was also examined, and corro-
borated the evidence of Worthy, as to the attack upon the
coach. In his croa-examinaton he admitted that, on
Thursday night, he had taken two persons from the V/heat
Sheaf who had been "bottled,' to different parts of the
town. _ _

The cue for the prosecution having closed, Mr. Ashton
intimated that he should not call any witnesses for the
defence, and proceeded to address the bench at considerable
length on behalf of the prisoners. He regretted the attack
made upon Mr. Baker; but it was shown in evidence
that the prisoners bad no intention to attack that gen-
,. times. As it had been proved that " bottling " had been
going on during the night, they were on the watch to
prevent the voters from being taken away; and it was to
ascertain if ouch was the feat, that Mr. Baker's carriage had
been stopped. He therefore trusted that the bench would
consider the ends of justice sufficiently answered by inflict-
ing a fine upon the prisoners.
Mr. Baker then, by permission of the bench, replied to
Mr. Ashton ; and milled upon the court to put a atop to such
lawless proceedings, not by imposing a shoots fine, which
would be Immediately paid by the prisoners' instigators be-
hind the menu, but by sending the owe to • higher tri-
bunal.

The megistratee then retired, and after beingebeent about
anhouz returned into court. The Mayor cud the bench
were of opinion that the prisoners had been guilty of a very
airgravated assault. They should therefore fine Curley and
Riley 61. each. and Temple 21., and should also order them
to find surmise to keep the pease for 12 months.

INSPECTION OF THE GUARDS, THIS DAY.—In
