divine Saviour; full of the remembrance of your
ancient kindness, humbly bent down at your feet,

took part in the disturbances. Several foremen

DINNER TO TIiU MEMBERS EON TUE WEST
BIDING.—We understand that a public dinner is contem-
plated to be given to Lord Morpeth and Mr. Cobden,

which has caused the originators to fix upon the Easter
recess as a most suitable period fur this celebration.—
