It. is understood that the ne,geciations with reference
to the new arrangements of the -Mexicau debt lately pro-
posed to the creditors on behalf of that Government have
been concluded, and the terms finally arranged between the
Committee appointed for that purpose at the public meet-
ing and the Mexican Minister and agents, It must be re-
membered, however, that such agreement can only be con-
sidered binding upon that portion of the bondholders by
whom the Committee were empowered to act, and the share-
holders generally will do well to restrain any sanguine ex-
pectations in the matter,

MRS. HALL'S LOVE OF HER SEX.—Female writers
seldom fail to pay dus homage to their own sex, in full length
portraiture ; Mrs. Hall, in her new, and certainly admirable,
novel of " Uncle Horace," acts upon this principle, which
we are far from complaining of, when she asserts that
" men sacrifice others—women themselves." This partiality
is, in fact, frankly admitted, where she says, in a passage
that may serve as a scanty description of some of the per-
sonages of the story, " A hero is supposed to deserve pecu-
liar attention at a lady's hand ; and yet I do not know how
it is, but I take far more pleasure in recording the actions
and developing the character of my heroines. I love

GRAND DINNER AT ST. LEONARD'S
TO ROBERT HOLLOND, ESQ., M.P.

(From the 21 riglticni Ga4ci.dian.
The Electors of the West Ward of the) Borough of
Hastings gave their Liberal representative a dinner on
Tuesday week. It took place at the South Salm Hotel.
It was a splendid affair, and what added in no small degree
to its interest, was the fact of its having been get up by the
spontaneous feeling of the electors of that division. . The
room in which the dinner was laid, was most appropriately
decorated with a profusion of flowers and evergreens, and
adorned with numerous pink banners bearing various in-
scriptions. Behind the Chairman a splendid banner was
suspended, bearing the arms of the hon. member and the
motto if Loyalty and Peace the Reformer's Bride ;" while
those on the walls bore the following inscriptions—" Pn.
rity of Election,"—" The Queen ; long may she roio,"—
" Hollond, the sincere Reformer,"—" The Queen and the
People,"—" Hollond mid Constancy," &c., &c. The St.
Leonard's band was in attendance, and in the course of the
afternoon performed several charming pieces of music, The
chair was taken by Adams Smith, Esq., at six o'clock, sup-
ported on his right by R. Holland, Esq., M.P., and on his
left by V, L. Richards, Esq., and other influential gentle-
men. Mr. Stephen Putland, the Chairman of the S.
Leonard's Committee, occupied the Vice-Chair, Acid 4-bout
100 persons sat down to the ditim l'ho cloth
been removed,

..ilYino

The CHAIRMAN (the late maid.
"..te for Sudbury) pro-
ceeded to announce the first toast of the evening, and
commenced by regretting the unavoidable absence of hie
brother, Benjamin Smith, Esq., who would otherwise have
presided. The toast he was about to propose to them at
times needed no preface, but on the present occasion it
did, He asked them to fill a bumper and drink to the
health of their young, virtuous, and beloved Queen—
(Loud cheers)--a Queen who while she would protect the
just prerogatives of' the Crowe, would equally guard the
rights and liberties of the people.—(Cheers.) He con-
sidered the meeting as one at which they ought to express
to each other their political sentiments and feelings, and by
their conduct give effect to those sentiments.—(Hear,
hear.) He had seen that the Tories and the Tory jour-
nals were attempting to undermine the state of society and
to unsettle Monarchy in this country. He had seen
parties high in rank, possessing great weeltb and power,
having great sway and influence with the Tory faction,
men of immeasurable ambition little scruple who would
gladly call in question the rights of her Majesty to
fill the lofty situation she now occupied. He had seen
various publications in which writers had put it forward to
the people that there was a law, not certainly in this coun-
try, but that a law existed elsewhere denominated the Sa-
lic law, which excluded females from the throne ; and in
the last Quarterly Review and in different numbers of the
Tone: newspaper, the two most confidential and most
powerful organs of the Conservative patty, there ‘vere long
and elaborate articles extolling that law,—a law which
by its immediate effect would exclude our present Queen
from the Throne she now occupied, not only by the ardent
and enthusiastic affection which her people bore to her, but
by the ancient law of England, and by hereditary right de-
scsnded to her through a long line of ancestors.—(Loud
cheers.) And for what purpose was this law adverted to
by the Tories upon the present occasion ? " Why gentle-
men," said Mr. Smith," are von called upon to set aside
your lawful Queen from the Throne of these realms, to de.
stroy the succession, to make a revolution, in short ? The
glorious, the patriotic aim and object of this revolution is
to seat the beloved Duke of Cumberland, the King of
Hanover, upon the throne of these realms in the place of
your Queen Victoria."--(" We will not have him, . never.")
He appealed to the electors of Hastings, to the freemen of
England, whether they would consent that that law which
would have deprived them of some of their best sovereigns,
should ever be established in this country ?—(" No, no,
never.") He was sure that such would be the response of
the electors of Hastings. They never would consent that
the ancient law of succession should be changed. "We
will never have a Salic law in England, we are the true
Conservatives,' exclaimed the Chairman. Our Queens
have brought us too much glory and too much liberty to
part with them thus easily. What King of England ever
reigned so gloriously as Elizabeth ? Did not the people of
England at the Revolution put aside a tyrant King for
the express purpose of enthroning a Queen, who, with
her consort, spread peace arid religious liberty through-
out the land ?—(Loud cheers.) And shall we now
adopt a Salic law in these realms for the purpose of dethron-
ning a Sovereign of so much hope and so much promise as
our Queen Victoria—(" Never")—to replace her by whom ?
By a shameless tyrant, who, having at one blow destroyed
the Constitution of the kingdom which he was sworn to
protect, would, if he dared and had the power, destroy
our Constitution also. Thank God this is at present be-
yond his power, although backed by all the Tories in Eng-
land and Orangemen in Ireland, The free people of
England know their own rights and the rights of their
Queen too well ; and knowing them, they will maintain
them to the last.—(Loud cheers.) It is true, as has been
stated before, and it cannot be too often repeated, that our
forefathers willed a revolution in order to get rid of a
tyrannical monarch ; but their posterity, inheriting their
blood and their love of liberty, never will abet the treason-
able attempt to dethrone a patriot Queen for the unhal-
lowed purpose of placing upon that same throne as great a
despot as him whom their ancestors so rightfully de-
posed.—(Great cheering.) A revolution to destroy tyranny
is the proper calling of freemen ; a revolution to bring on
a despotism in a country already free, is the work of mad-
men or of slaves. No! Never will the people of Eng-
land, of Ireland, of Scotland, surrender their Queen !
Ten thousand swords will start from their scabbards to
defend her person and her rights."—(Loud cheering.)
The Chairman then called upon the meeting to drink to
the health of her Majesty, Queen Victoria, the grace, the
life, the ornament of her country and the throne.—(Loud
plaudits.) The toast was drunk with the most enthusiastic
applause nine times nine.
Band—" God save the Queen,"

The CHAlRMAN—Gentlemon, I rise with pleasure to
propose to you the next toast, and do so with the greater
pleasure as the object of it is about to take up her residence
amongst you. A. great deal had been said, and the boast
had been far spread, that my lion. Friend's Right Hon.
Tory Colleague has been instrumental in the Queen Dow-
ager's coming to visit you. I think but little of this. It
appears that her Majesty is to reside on this side the
archway.—(Laughter, and cheers.) " The Queen Dow-
ager." Three times three.
Band—" All good Lasses."

The CitAtelt;.N—l call upon you, Gentlemen, to drink
in a bumper the health of " The Duchess of Kent ; thanks
to her, and blessings on her for the education she bestowed
on her beloved and illustrious daughter, our Queen."—
Vehement cheering, and the toast was drank with four
times four.
Band—'

hale Britannia."

The CHAIRMAN—There is, Gentlemen, another member 1
of the House of Brunswick who has ever been the staunch
friend of Reform and of Civil and Religious Liberty. 1
allude to the Duke of Sussex, and I have the honour to
propose his good health.—Drank four times four amidst
loud cheering.
Band—" Auld lang syne."
Mr. ADAMS SMITH, in proposing the health of their Re-
presentative, Mr. Hollond, congratulated the electors upon
their fortune in returning one Reform Member, although
the other party made it matter of boast that they had suc-
ceeded in electing a Tory. Mr. Smith observed that he
thought success taken by itself was no triumph ; it was only
subject of triumph when reference was bad to the means by
which that success was obtained.—(Cheers.) It was
matter of notoriety that, not only in Hastings, but in
almost every borough, city, and county where the Tories
had been successful, the most unfair, the most unconstitu-
tional, and the basest means had been used either to
intimidate, to coerce, to corrupt, or to dupe the electors.
The Conservative party, as they miscalled themselves,
in default of legitimate and constitutional means of
carrying their objects, had dealt with the constituencies
as though they were serfs or slaves, having no claim to a
will of their own—they exerted a despotic power over the
franchise of one portion of the community, whilst they
bribed and debauched the other—in fine, the Tory party,
at the late elections. bad demoralised and brutalised the
whole electoral community. In the few instances where
intimidation, coercion, or bribery had failed, they set them-
selves to work upon the prejudices and the fears of the ig-
norant, the timid, or the superstitious. 1-loef was this
great national evil and scandal to 4.9 ccul.ected ? By im-
proving the character ;AO by et larging the, number of the
colgOileney.-7,:by giving pratectio.n to the dependent but
honest elector—and, last, by the general diffusion of know-
ledge.—(Loud cheers.) Almost all true Reformers had
it last come to the conviction that these changes were
necessary. With such improvements in our elector Al. sys-
tem the lordly tyrant of his aeres co:-.1d uyt coerce, and the
ti.alin.g atai profligate politician-Wm:OA not dare to bribe ;
neither would` die pulpits of our Establishment resound
