DINNER TO EARL DURHAM.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT).

Supposing it may be a matter of interest to you,
I hand you a slight notice of the dinner which was
given yesterday to Lord Durham, at Gateshead.
Mr. Attwood intruded upon his Lordship with
the Address in a most ungentlemanly manner; but
the company interfered, and Mr. Attwood, and two
or three of his friends who had come into the room
prepared for the company previous to the din.
ner, went out apparently with general appro-
bation. Mr. Attwood and some of his party
continued for some time haranguing in the street,
and rendered it very difficult for the party who were
to dine to reach the house where the dinner was to
be given, which was on the other side of the way.
Indeed some of the dishes were considerably da-
maged in their passage, and a rabbit stolen by some
of the mob. The dinner was chiefly remarkable
for the declaration of Lord Durham respecting his
retiring from the Ministry. He read to the com-
pany (upwards of one hundred) the letter of his
resignation of the Privy Seal, which showed that

he had retired solely from illness consequent upon
the deaths which had taken place in his family. His
Lordship expressed himself quite willing to take
place with the present Ministry whenever his Ma-
jesty might require his services.
Mr. Rippon, who was in the Chair, declared that
he had opposed the Ministry upon the grant of
compensation to the slave-owners.
Towards the conclusion of the dinner, Lord Dur-
ham, after proposing the memory of the late James
Loch, Esq., observed, at considerable length, upon
the great difficulties with which the present Go-
vernment had had to contend, and the general feel-
ing of the meeting was highly favourable to them.
Speeches were made by Messrs. Hed worth, Lamb-
ton, Sir H. Williamson, Mr. Inglam, W. H. Ord,
and some other gentlemen of consequence in the
neighbourhood, all tending to show a high feeling
in favour of the present Administration. The opi-
Dion of all who were at the dinner (and it was most
respectably attended) was, that it would have a great
effect in strengthening the Cabinet.
