far distant when they will resume their accustomed and salutary in-
llitences in the COuneils of the Empire, and the minds of the people.
—(Loud cheers.) Instead of looking en with apathy or approba-
tion, while those establishments which have long, and most success-
fully, promoted the fear of God, are vilified and assailed—while the
revered memory of the Sovereign is employed for purposes which
it would be an excess of courtesy, and an abuse of honour, to call
honourable—and while every scheme of frantic and unprofitable
change is adopted with reckless precipitation, and pursued with blind
impetuosity—it will, ere long, be once more the general character
of Britons, that they fear their God, honour their King, and re-
nounce all sympathy with those who are given to change.—(Great
applause.)
•
The following toasts were then given:—
" The Duke of Wellington."
" The Memory of Sir Walter Scott, and may Scotland long
maintain its high literary reputation."
Mr. JOHN C. BUCHANAN rose and said, Mr. Chairman and
Gentlemen—The toast which I have the honour to propose, is
" The Conservative Constituencies of Ireland, and their Repre-
sentatives ie Parliament ;" and in giving it, Sir, I give you the and the great of the land.—(Loud applause.) I give you
those who love their own green Isle, and who would uphold the
time-honoured institutions of their country, honoured from their
wisdom as well as their antiquity—institutions which they
and their fathers have long been accustomed to consider almost as
sacred as the commandments of their GO.I. I give you those who
will not bow to the Demon of oppression, that hell-crowned king
Democracy, whose throne is the scaffold, whose sceptre the axe,
and whose delight is in blood and saw-dust.—(Cheers.) " The
Conservative Constituencies of Ireland and their Representatives
in Parliament," which was received with great enthusiasm."
Mr. J. E3IMERSON TENNENT, M.P.- then rose, and returned
thanks in a speech of considerable length.
The following toasts were then given :
" The Conservative Constituents of Ireland and their Represen-
tatives in Parliament."
" The Earl of Haddington, late Viceroy of Ireland."
" The Lord Lieutenant of the County of Lanark."
" The Conservative Constituencies of Scotland and their Re-
presentatives in Parliament." • .
" The Conservative Candidates, and success to the cause of the
Constitution at the next General Election."
" Lady Peel."
" The Ladies of Glasgow."
" The Lord Provost, Magistrates, and Council of Glasgow."
"May the patriotic of all parties speedily unite in support of
the Constitution, and in resisting that inordinate desire for inno-
vation which threatens to subvert it."
" The Students of Glasgow College who have done themselves
honour by electing Sir Robert Peel to be their Lord Rector."
" The Working Classes of the Community."
" The Landed Interests and:the Tenantry of Scotland."
" The Commercial and Manufacturing Interests."
" Mr. Gownox, of Aitkenhead," and thanks to him for the ge-
nerous use of his property for the erection of the Pavilion." •
" Thee Croupiers. '
The Dean of Guild and the Merchants' House of Glasgow."
The Deacon Convener and the Trades' House of Glasgow."
" The Committee of Management."
" The Operatives of Glasgow, who have honoured themselves, by
the honour they have done to Sir Robert Peel, in presenting him
with the Freedom of the City."
" The Deputation which waited on Sir Robert Peel with the in,
vitation from the Citizens."
" Mr. Lomond, the Secretary."
" Mr. Campbell, of Monzie, and the Independent Electors re
Argyleshire."
" The Operative Conservative Associations of England, an
may their example soon be generally followed throughout Britain
" David Hamilton, Esq., Architect."
4' The Colonial Interests."
" The Stewards."
The company then separated.

We could give several columns more of the speeches
delivered on this interesting occasion, but, in order not to
disappoint our numerous friends, we arc compelled to
abridge the report, in consequence of the hour at which we
arc compelled to go to press. In thus curtailing a large
quantity.of our report, amounting at least to seven columns,
care has been taken to preserve all that is important and
characteristic.

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FRANCE.

Rear-Admiral Baron Hugon, Commander-in•Chicf
the squadron of Observation, arrived at Brest, on the 27th
of January, with the Jena and Santa Pc/re of the line ;
the corvete, La Dilegente, which are part of that squadron.
These ships come from Lisbon ; the times are much
changed. The opposition journals, which continually
painted, in the most glowing colours, disasters which must
attend our intervention in Spain, now eagerly received the
benedictions of the people of Madrid, bestowed on the Eng-
lish who have intervened at Bilboa ; and the pretended ma-
ledictiotis of the same people, on France, which abandons
them, and will not intervene. What will these journals
say, now, that the Spanish Government itself is solicited by
the inhabitants of Bilboa to bestow a worthy recompense
on the brave English officers who have combated under the
glorious standard of Great Britain ?

" The civil and military authorities of Bilboa," says a
letter from Spain, " have waited on Colonel Wylde and
Captain Lapidge to express their gratitude for the important
services rendered to the cause of the Queen. General Es-
partero has written to the English Ambassador at Madrid,
to beg his Excellency to ask of his Government permission
for Colonel Wylde, Captain Lapidge, Lieutenant Hardy,
and all the officers of the two English men-of-war, to accept
the Cross of the Noble Order of Isabella the Catholic, as a
testimony of the gratitude of the Queen's Government.
The subaltern officers and the crews will receive the Cross
of Isabella 11. Colonel Colquhoun, and the Officers of Ar-
tillery, under his command, are to have the Cross of Isabella
the Catholic."

If it should happen, and nobody desires it more than
we do, that the raising of the siege of Bilboa has revived
the ardour of the Queen's soldiers, if all the constitutional
commanders, who are marching from so many different
points to the revolted provinces succeed in driving Dun
Carlos from the Spanish territory, who can say that Consti-
tutional Spain will not owe its salvation to the intervention
of the English flag ? Who can deny that the English navy
has saved Bilboa, and with that heroic city, the cause of
Queen Isabella ? Every voice in Spain is raised to proclaim
it, Espartere himself has solemnly declared it in his ordor
of the day, and in his official dispatches. Now, if the people
of Madrid cry " England for evert"...-if since, the Ra-
tional friend and filly' of Spain* j fnrptten in the joy o€ the
people of liilllcutuare the 9ppualtiuu journals a right to
blame the policy of the Minkgry, they, who in May and
June, 1885, whoa Spain officially- asked the assistance of
Franey, declared, with all their might, against intervention.

HAMBURG H, DEC. la.
ON approach of the COMMENCEMENT of
JANUARY, all those who may have to write to us before that
time, are requested to do so without delay, and to be particular
in
directing,

HEINE BROTHERS, in HAMBURGH,
and to observe, that a letter with one inclosure doutles the Postage
only, but several inclosures would by far increase the saute. Thus
10/.' 201., or 301., fir instance, if remitted in One Bank of Eng-
land Note would only cause double Postage, but 101. remitted in
two notes, would he liable to a much higher charge. It is there-
fore most advisable, for any Person having to remit Money to Ham-
burgh, to forwari the amount in One Note; or having to receive
Money from Hamturgh, to receive the same in One Note, when-
ever pt.a.-iible. Of course remittances from Hamburgh to England,
surpassing the usual amount of One Batik of England Note, may
rather be made in Bills of Exchange, on London. We request not
to overloik these particulars.
HEINE BROTHERS in HAMBURGH.
P. S. To persons having to remit 81., on receiving a Ten Pound
Note, we return Two Pound in the cheapest way possible.

LONDON,
SUNDAY, JAN6ARY 15, 1837.

The installation of Sir ROBERT PEEL, as Lord
I Rector of the University of Glasgow, took place in
that city on Wednesday last. The speech of the Right
Honourable Baronet on this memorable occasion, is,
without exception, the best he ever delivered. Its chief
recommendation was sound common sense, expressed
in languago wmaiikable for its simplicity and heartfelt
carneakness. It is something new to us to praise the
Right Honourable Baronet ; but Heaven forbid we
should ever be ungenerous enough to allow po-
litical prejudices to get the better of us, when discus-
sing his claims as a friend and instructor of youth! It
is delightful to see him in this capacity, laying aside
for a time the bitternessea of party spirit, and anxious
only to impress on the minds of the rising generation
the necessity of strict attention to intellectual pursuits,
as the surest means by which they may achieve distinc-
Con abroad, and happiness at home. Sir ROBERT did
not exhort his young hearers to enlist under the ban-
ners of party. He did not impress on them the pro-
priety, of their becoming staunch Conservatives :
he doffed the motley Harlequin robe of the politician,
and assumed instead the sober dress of the School-
master. The paints we chiefly admire in his Inaugural
Address, are, first, the healthy practi6l view he. took
of his subject; secondly, the utter absence of all
perplexing, abstract, metaphysical speculation ; and,
lastly, the uniformly encouraging tone of his remarks.
He spoke, not like a literary pedant, but like a literary
cosmopolite. He did, not undervalue great natural en-
dowments, but he gave due praise to acquired!ones.
He spoke rew.rentialty of genius, but he allowed in-
dustry its full share of praise. " I repeat," said he,
" with the earnestness of the deepest conviction, that
there is, in my mind; a presumption amounting, almost
to certainty, that if any one of you will determine to
be eminent, in whatever profession you may choose,
and will act with unvarying steadiness in pursuance of
that determination, you will, if health and strength be
given you, infallibly succeed." Sir ROBERT is here
speaking from his own personal experience ; but
indeed throughout, it is evident that personal expe-
rience is the Mentor that suggests his opi-
nions, as the following passage sufficiently be-
tokens On by far the greater part of you, it
is incumbent to acquire those qualities which shall fit
you for action rather than speculation. It is not
therefore by mere study, by the mere accumulation of
knowledge, that you can hope for eminence. Mental
discipline, the exercise of the faculties of the mind,
the quickening of your apprehension, the strengthen-
ing of your memory, the farming of a sound, rapid,
tnd discriminating judgment, are of even more im-
portance than the store of learning:," We have here
the good sense of the man of letters, sharpened and
modified by the experieuee of the man of the world.
Better, or more immediately and generally applicable,
advice could not, under the circumstances, have been
given, had all the Utilitarians and Political Eco-
nomists in the kingdom -clubbed their wisdom, for
that purpose. Would that the Right Hon. Baronet's
exhortations to his party were of the same generous
and beneficial tendency ! But we feel ourselves en-
croaching upon politics, and it is not with these de-
grading strifes we have here to do. We here meet Sir
ROBERT PEEL on neutral ground. He -is not now
the politician, but the schoolmaster ; and in this capa-
city we hold out to him the right hand of respect and
amity. We may shortly meet him again in his old, and,
we fear, embarrassing vocation, as leader of a great
faction, when far other language must be held towards
brit this shall not prevent us now saying, which
