scald add to the gratillesties its hit at \snot derl&
duty to his neatly, it was the kind reorptish sad gasses
lodgment ha had met with from the Lord Napa as the
representative of that mighty city, the greet maparina of
the CeliMbroll of the world. That meaning kis isedeldp
sad the soneretioa had been pleased to mahr hits

is a way eimaiseguratire of the estimation is whisk ffign
held those whom fortune had plated in a position to as Weis
duty to the advantage of their country ; and sew he woe
*ailed upon to n thank, for hie health being drink by a
company the most distinguished in the world. Words were
inadequate to convey to them the Wins that *assisted
i him his heart at flading hi. humble servitor thus appn-
Sated ; every pate of that heart, however. reepandsd with
yolked* for tbe co limiest they had pan his. a a:n=oi.
' meat doubly endsaM to him, inasmuch as it reflected
honour on that noble army he bad lately as privilege to
a Nomad. Hs mast allude none cirenamtaaas highly halos-
able to tt • native army of Init. In the nes asnapdpis it had
been his good &Tian* to endue; that army nonatened with
as only by those tin which contest soldiers with soldier,
though not of Utir same blood, origin, or mbar, that army
vied with the European troops in their loyalty to their Sou-
nip, sad their der lan and emirate is Mks, and though
everything wee done that could he dame is fans them to
desert their *Moon, it was in nia. Where ) He
mentioned this eirreasstutee for the purpose et doing
justice to the Lana army. He had only now again to thank
them for the manner is which his name had been received ;
and on his own pan, as well as that of the army which he
had had the extreme honour to command, to earnests his
gratitude for the manner in which they bad acknowledged
their service*. (Load sheers.)
Among other tomes,
Toe LORD MAYOR gave " The Home of Commons
and the health of Bir Rent Peel," whom he spoke of
ass milliner who bad conferred great service on his country.
The toast having been acknowledged,
Bit ROBERT PEEL foss. HI said be arse deeply seeable
of the compliment which had beet paid to him, by mooelat-
ing his name with the House of Commons; and when he
remembered the number of thole on whose behalf he had to
' speak, rad remembered how many small divisions of opinion
reigned among them on many matters et rabbi im-
petus% he felt some difficulty it being their
spehesnma. There were, however, tome matters on
which the Hone tr, Commons were unanimous. The Hose
of Commons was unaoitsous In their desire to pm ein and
preserve the constitution of the City of London and also the
tuitional Meath an anershly as that at which he was thee
present. He could also undertake to bear his testimony that
their entire sympathy was with the feelings which venom'
satin at that meeting. (Hear, hear.) He himself had had
to perform the gratifying duty of proposing the *asks of the
H. of Commons on more than one mosaics to the veteran
soldien who bad supported by their exploits the mambos
of the British army I. India. (Loud pus.) It had been
his good torts, to propose the thanks of the House of Com-
mon to Lord Gough for the brilliant maple which In
had set, in acmjaaction with his noble friend
on his right, who was then the governor-general
of India, who had participated in Ms hum of the same
eatapaiga, cad shared ia the nerdems and the dangers, and
I was entitled helm* also is the annieffielli of victory
with that *obis Ind. (Clime V.) It beta his duty to
propose the thasiff the Hems of Osamu far the briiPant
exampl• they bad set to the troops ands their commend
for the mange and diecipliso they aphipti unlit vel7
Mika aimenestesess, and for the intrepidity with which
the plane se devised had been carried out, az d to
as whisker& lly for the =SAW in which they had
personally led the attacks en the enmity. Whatever
might be the didn't's,' of *pinks that prevailed in
the Home of Comatose as other matters be could
undertake to ware them that that body was nnanimom
in their sympathy with the feelings which prevailed
in that numbly. He thought they would be doing great
injustice to tee preheat meeting if they thought its effects
would be limited to a men ezpremitia et gratitude to those
who had deserved so well from their country. He could
conceive no greater incentive to tau exertion than that
the armies of this country should feel matured, that hums
distant might be the ems in which they might be engaged,
whatever the lapse of time that might osear before their ex-
ertions were known, those einumstanoss woold never pre-
vent their sharing fully in the generous support and appro-
bation of their country, and that country has determined
that those who have shod their blood, and worn oat
the best part of their lives is ke Nuke of
Great Britain, will never be forgotten by these who
have boatfitid by their SerliON. (Cheers.) He
was rare that those who had exerted themselves sucessfully
for their country's honour would feel that the approbation
of such a meeting as this, 'initially when they found the
representative of one of the most powerful and gallant
*Wong on the face of the globs expressing his fell concur-
rence sad sympathy in the objects whit* bud brought them
together, an Wotan to farther etudes. (tae, hear.) If
this were a meeting of Bulishmen only, is bed No doubt
their approbation would be duly appreciated by the army
bat it was not the approbation of them ales% the gpeeraj

who ware at the mu this Ibtillittet 1111111.110111 and the
chief attraction of every whisk they besotted with
their preens—the ladies of Ragland. (Hear, hear.)
Their approbation was oftentimes Smote value to the gallant
men who were engaged fighting oar battles abroad than
eves the thanks of parlianisat or the approbation of their
fellow ciliates. (Chan.)
