SPIRIT OF THE TORIES.--There
hi
much talk in the town about an incident at the 'Hit
S ciety's dinner on Tuesday, which is of some I)°,oi
significance. The chairman, contrary to intle„-7,0
usage, gave the KING'S health without " the 1100')
t
and the band did not play, as usual, the King's 4
on the occasion. The QUEEN'S, on the contrasPiti
toisted with thundering acclamations, followed 1441
Britannia. His MAJESTY'S health (to use the lang°s',l
a gentleman present), was drank by the Tory Peer' t I
Commoners, who formed the majority of the tneethito
solemn silence, as if be were in that place to which 04
of the party would have no objection to see him Ms' 01
His MAJE,TY is in bad odour with the Tories. 50-
the better ! He can gain their favour only by giv1,4,0
the people to their rapacity. The incident must have .0
very disagreeable to the ordinary directors of the St/c'`
for there is no institution in this country kept moreebl i,i
from party feelings in its management than the Hig
Society.— Scohnna n.

BARD, the noted speculator, obtained over the I‘"-d

stinacy displayed by the latter in resisting all the P iii
sitions of the Allied Powers. His intimacy and Ili
access to the King, during the progress of the negi.ti'
were notorious ; ;Ind M. OUVRARD, who has ben

LIFE OF SIR DAVID BAIRD.
--',, If
••-

life of ti is excellent soldier is detailed in the fullest
sible manner in the volumes before us. The inati
which the author has had at his disposal, are rich
abundant, and he has employed them to the best
poses. The characters of individuals of the highest
nd stition, are freely discussed and censured ; no
ment of importance is withheld, and every circuit)"
t,nding to elucidate the various military operations,
which BAIRD was connected, is clearly and circus'
tially brought forward. The narrative, in short, bes
show of candour along with it, which, combined W'g
perspicuity of diction, and a perfect knowledge of the'
ject handled, cannot fail to secure it a favourahle re
