LORD BROUGHAM.---Great disappointment has
been felt, and regret expressed, at the necessity which pre-
vented his Lordship from accepting the invitation to dine
with the Reformers of the Scottish metropolis. We un-
derstand that the Magistrates, and other inhabitants of
Hawick, had applied to secure no less than fifty tickets for
the dinner, and that the applications from Aberdeen, Perth,
Dundee, and other towns, were also very numerous. It
was known that an overwhelming number intended to have
come from Glasgow : so that, had the dinner taken place,
it would, in all probability, have rivalled in numbers and
brilliancy auy public demonstration of the kind that ever
took place in this city.—Scotsman.
