A PUBLIC DINNER AT AN INN is the recognised
relaxation of a middle-class Englishman in the pro-
vinces. Did he not attend such banquets, his neighbours
would conceive him to be constrained by domestic tyranny.
Others go to them, and therefore he goes also. He is bored
frightfully by every speech to which he listens. He is driven
to the lowest depths of dismay by every speech which he is
called upon to make. He is thoroughly disgusted when he
is called on to make no speech. He has no point of sym-
pathy with the neighbours between whom he sits. The
wine is bad. The hot water is brought to him cold. His
seat is hard and crowded. No attempt is made at the plea-
sures of conversation. He is continually called upon to
stand up that he may pretend to drink a toast in honour of
some person or institution for which ho cares nothing ;for
the hero of the evening, as to whom he is probably indiffe-
rent. ; for the church, which perhaps he never enters ;lieu':
army, which he regards as a hotbed of aristocratic insolence

GERMAN NATIONAL LEAGUE.--bast Saturday
evening the fiftieth anniversary of the battle of
Leipsic was celebrated at Scyet's Hotel by a large concourse
of Germans. The chair was taken by Professor Kinkel,
who opened the proceedings shortiy after 8 o'clock. Mr.
D. Born gave a historical description of the state of Ger-
many before the battle, as well as of the battle itself, and
concluded with a poem by Upland. Patriotic songs were
sung by the Camberwell and Islington German Glee
Societies with their usual good taste and refined feeling.
A poem, expressly, written by a German lady for the occa-
sion, read by Dr. Zerffi, excited the greatest enthusiasm.
The reader was often interrupted by hearty applause when-
ever the poem touched upon German unity. The proceed-
ings were concluded by an eloquent address from the chair-
man, who, amidst repeated cheers, remembered with in
partiality all those German tribes who had been passe-
dsa
over in silence at the beginning of the festival.

the commemoration of one of their most sanguinary__„
with a peaceful tribute paid to the arts of poetry, la ll'it,
and rhetoric.
