GRAND EV TERTAM _VENT 1N LIVER-
POOL TO THE ROYAL CO MIIIIS-
SlO NERS.

On Saturday morning, pursuant to invitation, the
Royal Commissioners, and Executive Committee of the
Great Exhibition of 1851, with many distinguished fo-
reigners, arrived in Liverpool, on the invitation of Wil-
liam Brown,. , the p.►pular Member for South Lan-
cashire, for the purpose nf accepting that gentlemn's
hospitality on board the magnificent steam-ship Atlantic,
a floating palace of the new world, most appropriately
selected by Mr. Brown to receive as guests the assem
bled elite of the old world.
Bes►des the noblemen and gentlemen more immedi•
ately connected with the Exhibition, including the re-
presenta•ives of all nations, all the distinguished fo-
reigners in England holding official situations were
.invited, together with the Lord Lieutenant and High
Sheriff, the Mayors of Ose various towns of Lancashire,
-and select personal friends.

The Lotidon and North-Western Railway Company
placed a special train, free of charge to the foreign
visitors, at the disposal of the invited guests, the Royal
Commissioners and other En4lish gentlemen paying
excursion fares; but it was foetid that even the fares of
the foreign visitors Mr. Brown had himself agreed to
daftly.

At ten o'clock a numerous company assembled on the
lanclit.gtntage at St. George's Pier, where a steamer,
specially engaged fur the occasion, received the guests
for an excursion on the M, may. After some little de-
lay the n,mpany were taken on board the America,
Captain Neil Shannon, British and North American
royal mail steamer, which had just before left her moor-
ings in the Sloyne, on her outward voyage to New York.
['ere they were received with the utmost cordiality by
IVIr. Charles M'lver, the agent for the British line- of
mails, assisted by Mr. Fowler; the respected manager of
that house. After minutely inspecting the transhipment
f the mails from the Satellite tender to the America,
the distinguished company returned on board their ex-
cursion boat, when a parting salute was fired from the
America, and she stood out gallantly to sea. The Com-
missioners were next conducted to Birkenhead and Wood-
side, and had an opportunity of viewing the evolutions
of many of the splendid yachts engaged in the race of the
Royal M. rsey Yacht Club. The wind blew almost a
gate, yet the weather overhead was remarkably fine, and
nothing could exceed the delightful trip that this excur-
sion afforded.

After going on board the Atlantic, and inspecting her
truly magnificent accommodation, a floating palace in
every sense of the word, the company returned to Liver-
pool at two o'clock, for a respite, previous to the ban-
quet, appointed for five p.m. The following distinguished
individuals were among the guests present: ;
Earl Granville, Marquis Guarzotii, Barons Von Parte
and Closen, Counts Kergolay, Warelli, L. Serveston
and Son; Chevaliers Pazzi, Lencisa, and Perizzi; Sir
-James Anderson, Mr. J. Locke, M.P., the Mayors of

THE BANQUET.
At half-past five the company sat down in the magni-
ficent dining saloon to one of the most sumptuous repasts
ever provided on ehipbo,rd. The chair was occupied by
the worthy host, -Mr. Brown, and the vice-chair by Cap-
tain West, the commander of the ship. The whole was
under the management of Mr. Lynn, of the Waterloo
Hotel, to whom it did - great credit. Of the wines it
would be impossible to speak in too high terms of com-
mendation; the most choice vintages of all kiads were
selected and set before the guests iu liberal profusion,
and ample justice was done to Mr. Brown's princely
hospitali,y. As soon as the cloth was removed,
The CHAIRMAN rose and said that, es Englishmen, it
always afforded -Cheat the highest pleasure to -testify,
tn-ir loyalty, by drinking as the first toast upon all fes-
tive occasions the health of an illustrious lady who was
not more ennobled by her high station us Sovereign of
these realms, than in her private position as a wile and
a motn,r. He therefore gave " The Queen, the Duchess
of Lancaster."

The toast was'rapturously received, and the national
anthem sung by a party of professionals, who sang also
several eloes in the course of the banquet.
Mr. BROWN next proposed the health of the illustrious
Prince who had been the originator of that Palace of In•
dustry, which bad been the means of bringing to this
country au many di.tinguished foreigners, and enabled
some of those strangers to meet together, although from
all parts of the earth, in the bonds of concord, and for
the advancement of science and human progress. He
proposed the health of "Prince Albert, Albert Prince of
Wales, and the rest of the Royal family."
Glee—" What shall he have who killed the deer?"

The Cueeametr, in proposing the next toast, said it
was due to the governor of a most enterprising and in-
telligent people, whom we find in every quarter of the
gleba—under the burning sun of Ethiopia, or pursuing
tee whale in the arctic regions—ut whom the eloquent
Burke had said there was no sea but had witnessed their
toil, and no country but had benefited by their presence.
I was due to the governor of such a people that his
name should be received with honour on an occasion
like the present, when they were assembled in a vessel
built in and bearing the flag of that country to whichhe
alluded. If that people could do so much in the gristle
of their youth, what might be expected from them in
the bone of their manhood? He proposed " The Presi•
dent of the United States," and begged to associate
therewith the name of Mr. Davis, charge d'affdres fur
that country.—(Loud cheers.)
Mr. DAVIS, in acknowledging the honour done to the
President of his country and to himself, could have
wished that the task had devolved on some one higher
in the diplomatic circle, but he knew that their Presi-
dent would look upon a fife like this with pleasure, and
with gladness upon the restoration to service of this
gallant ship, whose accident last winter had spoken de-
gelation to many a home, end carried sorrow to thousands
of hearts on the otber side of the Atlantic.—(Hear.)
They had been told that the products of America were
mesgre in the Crystal Palace, but let those who said so
come and look at Livery ol—let them look into the
docks and warehouses, as the R 1,51 Commissioners and
others had done that day. Let them see what produce
there was from America, and the ships fleeting on the
Mersey under her flag, and they would behold what the
the di scendauts of Englishmen hid done in so short a
time, awl what vast obstacles they must have encoun-
tered and overcome since they separated from the mothor
country.—(Cheers.) He would not detain them longer,
as the worthy mayor of Liverpool was anxious for their
company that evening, but conclude by thanking Mr.
Brown for proposing the health of the President while
sitting under the American flag, and the company for
the handsome manner in which they had received the
toast.—(Loud cheere)

good deal of personal exertion, and all their iefluence,
endeavoured to assemble the company on this occasion.
Song—" Be peace our guiding star."
Earl Gnertvieez begged to thank them, on behalf of
the Royal Germissiouers, and on his own part, for the
handsome manner in which they had received the toast.
There is in the Exhibition (said his Lordship) a model
of Liverpool, which is daily surrounded by thousands of
anxious and gratified spectators; but Mr. Brown, not
satisfied with that, like one of the merchant princes of
whom this country 'might justly boast—a merchant
prince in every sense of the word—one of those who
had brought Liverpool to what it is—resolved on giving
our foreign guests an opportunity of visiting the town
itself, and of partaking t,f this magnificent repast in a
Transatlantic steatner.—(Cheers.) It was most appro-
priate that men who were assembled to promote the arts
and industry, and to forward the comforts of mankind,
should meet in a vessel of this sort. The idea was most
happy, end showed how absurd it is to prophecy that
anything is impossible in the present day. Mr. Davis
had reminded them that they were under the American
flag; he might say they were meeting in the middle of
Liverpool on American ground.—(Loud cheers.) It
was a subject for rejoicing that this occasion had given
Mr. Davis the opportunity of making those happy ex-
pressions of opinion in regard to the two nations which
they had just heard. his Lordship next referred

the noble epeaker said that in the reign of
George ILL the extent of docks win not more thou some

few hundred yards, while now they extended over four
miles, and will soon reach five; at the former period the
population was only 86,000; now it is over half a mil-
lion. He did not advert to this in glorification of any
portion of the British empire, bat as they had seen in
the Exhibition the collection made by Mr. Archer, of
samples of all the produce brought to Liverpool from
the different parts of the world, they had to-day, through
Mr. Brown's hospitality, beheld the ships that bring that
produce, the warehouses where it is placed, and were
now enabled to form some opinion as to the connexiou
of the prosperity of Liverpool with the peaceful progress
of the civilised nations of the earth.—(Great cheering.)
In conclusion, his Lordship bore testimony to the ala-
crity and cordiality with which the distinguished fo-
reigners had co-operated in all matters connected with
the duties of the Royal Commissioners, and resumed his
seat amid loud and protracted applause.
Mr. BROWS, in proposing the next toast, said the
Noble Lord had only expressed what the whole nation
felt, that the foreign commissioners had met us with a
cordiality the most cheering, and as this' was not the
first., so he hoped it would not be by many the last, time
they would have the happiness of meeting on occasions
like present before their departure from this coun-
try. He proposed " The Foreign Commissioners,"
which was drank with all the honours. _ .

M. ZAIRAI3, the Turkish Commissioner, said, that al-
though there were many gentlemen present connected
with the toast far more competent to acknowledge the
honour than himself, he must be permitted to say he felt
highly flattered at the selection made by their worthy
host, and in his own name, and on behalf of the rest of
the foreign commissioners, he tendered his warmest
thanks for the manner in which they had received their
names. He would aay that those of hie countrymen who
bed_returned, had.left Belgad withaMeong impression
of admiration for the ilinitfrons Prince who had origi-
nated the Palace of the Industry of all Nations—for it
was the work not of a day bat of an age—and of admira-
tion also of the great nation which had so splendidly car-
ried out the original thought.
Mr. BROWN next proposed " The Executive Com-
mittee," which was drunk with much applause, and ac-
knowledged by
Mr. Cosa, who observed that he should have felt deep
regret that the Executive Committee had not a better
representative than himself on this occasion, were it not
that he was enabled to let their foreign guests into a
secret they would not otherwise have known. He must
tell them, then, that they were in no small degree in-
debted to their worthy chairman for the existence of
the Great Exhibition.—(Hear, hear.) Yes; for as in
the moral, so it is in the physical world, there is a con-
tinuous system of cause and effect, and as that Hon.
Gentleman was a most zialous supporter of the system
of penny postage, the system introduced by the gentle-
man on his left (Mr. Rowland Hill)—(Vociferous cheer-
ing)—so from penny postage sprang increased commu-
i ieation. and this mainly contributed to the erection of
the fabric they beheld with admiration.—(Cheers.)
They had in the Crystal Palace a sample of
a Belgian
post-office. Instead of mere posts in the streets the
Belgians had turned them to practical account, and as
it was not well to be too sluggish in carrying on im-
provements, and as one good turn deserves another, and
as the Exhibition was owing to the penny postage—
(Hear, hear)—he was now enabled to announce that the
favour would be returned.—(Load cheers.) An associ-
ation had been formed for the purpose of carrying on an
intercommunication between nations, and already many
foreign Ministers, including those of France, Austria,
and Pruisia, besides Lord Ashburton, and, he eight add,
their worthy chairman also, had joined it with a view
to impress on all the Governments they represent the
advantages of intercommunication, by means of a much
easier and better mode of transit. The prospect was
good, and he trusted the object would speedily be ac-
complished.—(Cheers.)
The CHAIRMAN rose and said that as the Mayor of
Liverpool had invited a very large party at the Town- i
hall to meet their guest, he must travel a little out of the
order of the list of toasts to enable his Worship to meet
those whom he had invited; he would, therefore, without
preface, propose " The Mayors of the southern division
of Lancashire, who have favoured us with their company
to-day."
Drank with all the honours. _ _ _

The Mayor of Liverpool (Joltz; BENT, Esq.) thanked
them not only for drinking his health on this occasion,
but for the opportunity thus afforded him of offering on
behalf of the Town Council and the inhabitants of Liver-
pool their cordial welcome to the Executive Committee,
the Foreian Commissioners, and the jury of the Great
Exhibition, at this hospitable table. Though Liverpool
could not boast of any such variety of productions as
those concentrated in the Crystal Palace, he hoped the
gentlemen who Lad visited them to-day had seen much
to admire in this great and growing emporium, and that
an active and honourable rivalry might arise to promote
the arts and sciences, and, under Providence, the good
will and friendly intercourse of all nations.---(Load
cheers.) He regretted that the shoitness of the time
would not allow more opportunity for him to entertain
and receive them as he could with at the Town-hall, but
he would be happy to see them even if but for a short
time.

His Worship retired amid general cheering'.
The next toast was " The healths of Mr. Paxton and
Mr. Fox;" in introducing which Mr. BROWN said he
had almost committed an Irishis,n, by saying feat if the
Crystal Palace contained notbini; but that would
have b-en sufficient to attract their distinguished foreign
guests to this country. lie therefore propcsed " The
healths of the gentlemen who had designed and con-
structed it."—(Cheers.)
Mr. LOCKE. M.P., being called on by the chairman,
on behalf of Messrs. I'axto❑ and Fox said he was sorry
such a task had been left in such hands, but he supposed
it was because he was in some degree connected with a
profession of the same character as one of those gentle-
men. In Liverpool, where they tee floating in the dock
such magnificent ships as this iu which they were, all
might judge of the progress wade is such a building as
the Crystal 'Uwe. If be bad words he would pro-
nounce au eulogium on those two gentlemen for their
respective merits i❑ that great work, the design of
which is so chaste and the execution co perfect that it
is a marvel among public works. He had always a
pleasure in recording the merit of those engaged in the
same protestion as hirnailf, and therefore felt pleasure in
acknowledging the honour they had done to Masses.
Paxton and Fox.—(Cheers.)
Mr. BROWN then proposed the health of " The Jury
of the Great Exhibition," who had been most anxious to
do justice to all parties, but they found from the multi-
tude of good things brought before their notice, that
their task was almost insurmountable.
The toast was acknowledged by Dr. lIERRMANN,
who spoke in the German language, and made au elo-
quent address.

The following toasts were severally given and duly
responded to: Success to the undertakings of all men
of letters and science, engineers, and mechanics, whose
heads and whose hands have added immeasurably to the
social comforts of mitokintl." " Peaceful commerce,
may it ever flourish, to carry religion and civilisation
into the remotest corners of the world."
M. WoLowsKt (France) responded in an elequent
speech iu the French language, which was repeatedly
cheered. He said then" was a double necessity imposed
upon them of culttvatieg the
Pesc,ful arts—the march of
commerce and of population. The Exposition of In-
dustry must have a considerable effect in promoting the
material, moral, and political progress of ma, kind by
lealing to a fraternity of the pulite, and the spitted of
education and peace.
" The Armies and Navies of the Great Nations of the
Earth; may they ever meet as friends, and not as foes,
to co-operate for some great public good."
Colonel B. P. JOHNSON (America) said, as one em-
ployed in the defensive service of his country, he trusted
that the preent assemblage of nations would lead to
the result propounded in the sentiment they had adopted.
He might say that the army and navy of the country he
belonged to never again desired to be called on to meet
those of other nations in war, and he hoped the time had
arrived when " the nations should not learn war any
more."

" The World's Commercial Fleet; may it continue to
navigate the ocean free from war's alarms,
and add UP
the prosperity, the happiness, and the social comforts of
the hut:nun race."

- -
Chevalier LECCISCA (Sardinia) claimed for his coun-
tryman (Columbus) the honour of discovering two
worlds vvlJ.ire only one was known to exist previously.
That was a part of the destiny of science, and the
friendly meeting of nations muss be both a cause and a
consequence of its progress.
Mr. BaowN then gave " The Health of Captain West,"
who had so courteously received the guests on board his
ship.—(This was received with loud and general cheer-
ing, and " three times three for Captain West in his
own cabin," were given with great enthusiasm.)
Captain WEST replied, in a breaf but pithy speech, in
which be expressed the honour and pleasure he felt at
meeting so distinguished a company on board the ship
which he had the good fortune to command.
Earl GRANVILLE proposed "the Health of their
worthy Host," in neat and appropriate terms, cha-
racterising the banquet as at once magnificent and un-
ostentatious; to which
Mr. BROWN replied in a short but effective address, in
the coarse of which he stated that he trusted the Crystal
Palace might hereafter be truly called the Peace Palace;
and referring especially to Liverpool, he said that in the
reign of Chqrles 11. it had but fifteen little boats on the
Mersey, none of them more that 150 tons; in the reign
of Queen Anne the first dock was built where the Custom-
hou.o now stands, and for half a century its progre-s was
but slow. At the beginning of the present ceatury the
town received 28,0001. a ycar in dock dues; now they
received half a million annually. At the commence-
ment of the century the docks covered only about
200 acres of watttr space; now, as they had heard,
they wero many miles iu extent, and had cost
more than ten millions sterling. If it was a:ked how
Liverpool had thus rapidly progressed, he would inform
them, for the benefit of their stranger guests. Wales
supplied her with copper, iron, and I,aid, North wich
with salt, Birmingham with hardware, Macci„fidi with
silk, Sheffield with cutlery, Leeds witii cloths, Bradford
with stuffs, and coals from everywhere, He hoped only
that those nations whos:e representatives were around
him, would take from England those articles which she
could supply cheaper than they could otherwise procure
them, and give us in return those things which we re-

quire for our own country. That was the true principle
of commerce, and he was happy to have had an oppor-
tunity of expressing to them his opinions as a British
merchant, and to see them as guests at his table.
" The Press, which enables us to make progress in all
the civilised arts of lire, by faithfully recording the dis-
coveries and passing events of the age," was then given
from the chair, and briefly but happily acknowledged by
Mr. MecnomALD, after which the company returned
ashore to partak,• of the Mayor's hospitality.
Upwards of 900 guests bad assembled at the Town•
hall, where the eveni❑g was terminated both happily
and brilliantly.

BOULOGNE AND ENS RAILWAY.
A notice was posted in the Stock-Exchange on Tours-
day from Messrs. Carden and Whitehead, London agents
to the Boulogne and Amiens Railwsy, that an agreement
was signed on Wedn9sday at Paris between the boards of
that company and the Northern of France for an amal-
gamation, which is to be submitted to the approval of
the respective shareholders. The terms are briefly as
follows —The Northern takes the B mlogne line, with all
its advantal,es, and assumes all its obligations. In return
the 75,000 original shares of 201. each are to be ex-
changed for bonds of the Northern Company of a like
sum, bearing interest at the rate of 3 per cent., or 12s.
annually, payable half-yearly, such, bonds to be paid off
off at par, all within a period of seventy-five years, and
so may each year, according to lot. The sinking fund
which will be allowed will extinguish about 200 bonds
the first year, more the next, as the interest on these
then ceases, and so on until all are paid eff in the stipu-
lated time. The interest will only commence from the
Ist instant, but the Boulogne holders will receive for
the past half-year's dividend whatever the traffic may
have produced. The bonds will have the .whole traffic
of the Northern Company as security for thirty-eight
years. By that time a large portion of the shares will
be paid off, and the revenues of the Boulogne line will
be amply sufficient to secure the interest and repayment
of the rest. It has been agreed, however, that if the
concession of the Northern line be extended, the secu-
rity of their whole revenue is to be given for the en-
tire term of the concession. The general bearing of
this arrangement is considered to be such as will
command the unanimous assent of the shareholders of
both companies. The Boulogne will receive more than
twice the interest their line has produced as an inde-
pendent undertaking, and the repayment of the shares
Ist the full value originally subscribed is assured on the
fullest security. The Northern, on the other hand, ob-
tain the only link wanting to put the whole interna-
tional communication in their hands, and get posses-
sion of a line which, however unproductive it may
hitherto have been, cannot fail, when worked conjointly
with the whole line to Paris, to command a great and
increasing business. Now that the useless competition
between Boulogne and Calais will cease, both will be
rendered available to the fullest extent of their re-
sources; the English traffic will have every facility by the
shortest way, and the injury which the Northern and
Boulogne both received from the competition of other
and leis convenient routes will no longer be possible.
The Northern will, besides, have an additional advan-
tage from the long lease of the Boulogne (ninety-nine
years). By giving up a portion of it, they may rea-
sonably hope to obtain an extension of the lease of
the main line from its present duration to an average
of 75 years, and thus far diminish their annual allow-
ance to the sinking fund, as to be able very considerably
to increase the divisible profits. It may be observed
that the present agreement differs most materially from
the indefinite one which was attempted about a year
since, and which was properly rejected by the share-
holders. It secures every Boulogne share being even-
tually paid off at 201.; while in that they were to be paid
off at 81, and it gives considerably more interest, be-
rides guaranteeing it clear of any contingencies. It is
plain that although the Boulogne line will be very valu-
able to the Northern, it is so dependent on the main
line that it would have been difficult, under the most fa-
vourable circumstances, to have earned while working
as an independent undertaking as much as is now se-
cured, and the shareholders, therefore, owe gratitude to
their directors for having steadfastly maintained their
interests until such a result cou'd be brought about. The
Northern Company have no less reason to congratulate
themselves; and, at the same time, the public will be
benefited, since the adjustment will tend in a very im-
portant degree to facilitate the international communi-
cation.—Times.
