SUFFOLK AAA DINIVEIL—REFORIL
-4110-
Oe Wednesday last the Gentlemen of the meaty of Suffolk
attached to the principles which guided the publics °Deduct of
Charles James Fox, assembled and dined together at Ipswich,
for the purpose of celebrating the birth-day of that distingaiithed
statesmen. No room in the town being large enough to accom-
modate the numerous company, the dinner took place in the
Corn Exchange, which was very tastefully prepared for the oc-
casion. A temporary roof was thrown over the square which
the Exchange forms ; this covering, together with the Mills.
was decorated with branches of laurel and flowers. Oa the
left side of the market, a toll-length cast of Britannia was p aced
—on the right stood • figure of Justice. At the booms of the
tables, and immediately opposite the chair, a bust of Fox was
raised upon • pedestal. Immediately behind the Chairman was
• screen of buff-coloured silk, on which were inscribed in white
letters, the following words The Kiug and Constitution ;"
" The glorious principles of HISS." The event excited great
interest in the town, and at intervals during the day the bells of
the Tower Church rang a merry peal. At six o'clock Sir Henry
Beabory took the chair, at which time about SOO most respec-
table gentlemen bad seated themselves round the tables. The
dianer was exoelleat, and as important addition is id been
made to the pod rimer by Sir W. Rowley and Sir T. B. Les-
sard, each of whom sent two fat bucks. During the coarse of
the evening several mega were sung by different gentlemen,
amongst wham was • young man said to be the son of the ce-
lebrated Ineleden.
As soon as the cloth was reaseved. Sir Robert Harland rose
for tbe purpose, he and, of apologising for the absence of Sir
Nit idiom Rowley. Sir William was detained at Cowes by the
dangerous illness of use of his daughters. The sentiments of
the worthy Baronet were, h , well known to the company,
sod his °motheaten mold not fail to be pleased with the votes
which be had given to Parliament, and the general desire which
he exhibited to promote the Cause of reform. (Applause).—
Now he was upon his legs, be would take the oppurtuuity of
saying a word or two more with respect to a circumstance
which related to himself. Since their last meeting at Bury, he
bad often been secured, and even lately, in some public prints,
with having been actuated with a desire to knelt the King by
the manner in which he proposed his Majesty's health at that
meeting. He gave the health of his Majesty in the manner in
which it was usually given at the Fox dinners. He certainly
did sot propose that the drinking of the toast should be accom-
panied with three cheers, because that was not the way in
which it bad been drank at these diners. Since, however, it
appeared that some persons considered cheers es the test of
loyalty, he would propose to their worthy chairman to give
toe King"' health with three times three.
The CHAIRMAN then gave " The Meg and Constitution,"
with three times three.—Tune, " God save the King."
The sect toast was" the Royal Family."
The CHAIRMAN said, that before he proposed the toast which
stood next os the list, it might be expected that he should
offer • few remarks to the company, is doing which be claimed
their kind indulgence. The pleasnre wltich he felt on this oc-
casion was the greeter, because he was accustomed to view
soceteigs of this kind in a more serious light than most other
men. He could Dot consider thew as meetings of mere social
intercourse, nor could he admit that persons who attended
thew must necessarily put on the badge of party. (Applause.)
He trusted and believed that no man came there who /lid not
desire to promote the interest of his country. They considered
that they were performing a duty by showing their attachment
to those principles of civil and religious liberty which Mr. Fos
bad so boldly and eloquently asserted. Upon such an occasion
as the present, it was out unapt to inquire what were the lead-
ing principles which guided Sir. Fox's political conduct. Mr.
Fox's opinions resembled those of old Rioltard Rumbold. He
did not think that God seat the majority of mankind into the
world with bridles in their mouths, and saddles on their backs,
in order that ft few of their species might mount and ride them.
Mr. Fox thought the source of legitimate power was in the
people : that prerogatives were given to the King, not for his
own benefit, but for that of the people ; that taxation without
representstion was unconstitutional ; that it was not sufficient
tout that the laws were ostensibly equitable, but that the greatest
are was necessary to prevent their perversion ; that when the
people are oppressed and redress cannot be obtained by pe-
tition, resistance is righteous and unconstitutional, but only
wine undertaken witb that probability of emcees which dis-
tinguished the wise schemes of the patriot from the rash enter-
prise of the political adventurer. Mr. Foe, too, bad always
been the champion of religious freedom ; be deprecated the
mixing op of political matters with speculative opinions on the
subject of religicto. He might sum op the character of Fox
by saying that be vim always ready to advocate the claims of
justice and humanity. Posterity would do justice to Mr. Fox,
and would set his character in its true light. The honorable
Bennet concluded with proposing the " Immortal Memory of
Charles James Fox." (aeon.)
The toast was 'truth in silence.
" The Duke of Sussex, and the principles which placed his
family on the Throne," was next drank with three times three.
cue—" Scon whit ban wi Wallace bled.
Sir W. Mtoottros stated that be bad received a CODlSlMlllt-
intim, which stated teat his Royal Highness hal been prevent-
ed by indie.esition from skewing the meeting.
" A ommututioaal, effectual, and speedy reform in the Com-
mons' House or Perliament."—Tune, " Kick the rogues oat."
The Ilekt toast proposed by the Chairman was, " The cause
of civil and religions liberty throughout the world," which was
drank with three times three.
The CHAIRMAN stated, that be felt great pleasure in sub-
mitting the thllowing toast to the company. because be felt the
highest. regard for the whitlows to whom it referred, both on
amorist of his many private virtues, and his integrity as •
public character. He gave the " Duke of Grafton" which was
dram with three times three, and much approbation.
Lord Hasa,/ FttzRQY rose admidst cheering. lo returning
thanks for the honour which the meeting had jam conferred
wag his brother, be felt it to be unnecessary to repeat a state-
ment of the reasons which induced him (the Duke of Grafton)
to abstain fro* attending their dinners. He last year at Bury
made them mamma hoover (applause). and at the same time be
stated what the psalmsl vinous of kis brother were. That
ern brother bad sated up to Ins professicns by his public con-
d 3111 e, end partidelatly by his declarations io favour of reform

Captain WROTH rose to acknowledge the compliment that
him uerts paid to the proitssoln to which he beiouged. He
knee it had been the p...ctioe with tne ultralotalists to 'lig-

his froaseience, and is eunformity to the lest declaration of
Nelsua, •that England expected 'my man, whether on sea or
on ahem to do his dety.'—(Applaum.)
the CHAIRMAN observed that the nest toast on the Hat was
the principal of the aristocracy of England, who was not more
illustrious as being the bead of all the Howard', than bating
proved himself a zealous friend to civil and religious liberty.—
He gave
•• The Doke of Norfolk" with three times three.
The following toasts were then drank with touch applause.
May the public purse aryl): he violated tor toe purpose of
corruption."
•• Ma) the ties which bind mankind by the holy alliance of
benevolence, freedom, and integrity, and not the unholy one
of ambition, and corruption."
Lord HUNTINGFIELD, his health having been drank with
three times three, rose and expt eased Lir acknowledges, ots for
the honour.

" Sir W. Rowley," with three times three.
Sir R. HARLAND said the manner in which this tout had
been received, convinced hiai that they were well relished
with the public conduct of the worthy Baronet, and also with
the apology which be bud made for his a seam
The following toast was drank with ardent expressions of
approbation—t• The triutupliset emancipation and speedy ao•
knowledgment of the Independence of Columbia."
The CHAIKMAN said, the neat toast required no introductory
harangue to make it acceptable to the cowpony. a • the old pro-
verb said " goo t wine needs no bush." He therefore at mice
proposed " The health of Lord Henry Fitzroy," which was
drunk with three times three, and great applause.
Lord H. Firunotv returned thanks.
•• Sir T. Leonard, and thanks to him for Lis good venison,"
wu drink with three limes three. _ _

Mr. LRNNARD, on rising, was greeted with loud cheers.—
He begged the company would accept his best cheeks tor toe
honour which they bad bestowed upon his father, who was
a ways extremely sensible of the kindness which he received
from the gentlemen of that neighbourhood. He (Jar. Leonard)
who bad been so much honoured by the hatred and teethe,' of
the Pitt faction in that borough, need scarcely state with what
satisfaction he viewed the pieaent meeting, and what hope it
inspired him with in regard to the future:—(Applause.)
Sir It. lIARLANDs health being drank with many testimonies
of approbation, the honourable baronet rose to return thanks.
He avowed himself r staunch reformer, not of tire constitution,
but of the anu►es which crept into it. He concluded with pio-
posing the health of their worthy Chairman—Sir H. Hunbury.
—The toast was drank with three times three, and great ap-
plause.
The CHAIRMAN returned thanks, and concluded by pro-
posing—'• The healths of Lord Grey, Lansdown, and Holland,
and may the peers of England always remember that their
privileges are identified with the liberties of the people."
The next toast was " Lord Albemarle and the Reformers of
Norfolk."
Mr. MACDONALD rose amidst lend applause. It fell to his
lot to say a few words cn behalf of the noble lord whose health
the company had just drunk. He regretted that the noble lord
was not present upon this occasion, because he knew well how
much the cordiality of his manners, which only represented the
sincerity of his heart, would have contributed to the pleasure of
the company. (Applause.) Nest, however, to the pleasare of
seeing the noble lord among them, would be the satisfaction;
which he should feel of reporting to him the spirit and barwosy
in which the evening had passed. These were not days in
which it was quite 60 convenient for a country geoileritau, espe-
cially if had vested all his capital in the soil, to travel 50 or lid
miles to cultivate any principles, however much he might ad-
mire them, as he was sore the amble lord himself would if be
were present. The Earl of Albemarle was an Englishman
made of that stuff, that lie would infinitely tallier preler
bring in this country with halt a home, hall an estaulish-
ment, and on Italia tortoni., all that the w •tllters of storms

ECCLESIATICAL DEpRiVATIoN.—The due course

2. A charge (called a libel) must be given. to which he is to

3. A competent time must be assigned for the proofs and sn-

6. He must base a liberty for counsel to defend his cause, and

taking to ins assistance six or seven Bishops.
The last deprivation which occurred was that of
the Bishop °ESL David's, who was deprived by the
Archbishop of Canterbury, in the time of King
William 111. This prelate availed liiinselt of. every
means of defence w hich the law al:oweil, not only in
the ArchLishop's Court, but by appeal to the Caul
of Delegates, by application to the King's Beneii Inc
a prohibition, and even by bringing a Bill of Error
befure the House of Lords. It is baldly to be aati-
cipated that the prcwist offender will attempt to Avail
hiinselt of these means of protracting the suit; on
the contrary, by nun-appearance, he will, iu all pro-
bability, expedite the preceedinga.
