LATETHE W.
r e°M.P.—Our readers
bywill perceive, referring to BB
our
advertising
columns, that a
ET T ,
public dinner, commemorative of the birth of this extraordi-
nary man, will be held on Monday next, at the Crown and
Anchor Tavern. 11r. Ffelden, 111. x., the friend and colleague
of Mr. Cobbett, will be in the Chair. We have no doubt that
the d'nner will be numerously attended, and knowing the
principles and politics of the party, we have as little doubt that
the speeches will contain some thing beyond commonplace, and
that matters of real interest, with reference to the present
appearance of the political atmosphere, will occupy the atten-
tion of the company more than eating. and drinking.
A son of Dr. Rattray, High street, about 13
years of age, died yesterday morning in consequence of injuries
which he had received on the Queen s marriage,
night, from the
accidental explosion of some crackers and powder in one of his
pockets upon that occasion.—Glasgow Chronicle.
