Many loyal and constitutional Toasts were drank
and Songs sung in the course of the evening. DIG.
Num and To wilsH END were both present in the early
part of the evening. The former sung the popular
song of " The Pilot that weathered 'the Storm,"
which was received with all the enthusiasm that it
had ever produced :—but peculiar circumstances had
previously called for the following Song, which was
received by the Company with great approbation.*

Come all 'my. worthy Liverymen
And listen, to my tale,
I ask your Poll and Intirest, Sir
Be sure you do not fail.
And a Polling we will go, &c.

And said with hearty glee,

Must in himself be free.

And die-an Honest Man.

A friend to him that's free, &c.

The Annunciation of the State of the roll for the
County of Middlesex gave great satisfaftion, and
Mr. MAINWARING'S Success was drank with real
:warmth and good wishes.
Mr. Deputy BIRCH'S Health, as an anive Friend
of Mr. Alderman CURTIS, having been drank, he
made, in return a very elegant and appropriate
Speech, in which he touched very ably upon the re-
quisites of a Member for. the City of London—
" Honesty and Independence," which he maintain-
ed belonged to their valued Representative whose
Eledion they now met to celebrate.

i,‘,inongPr:the Toasts given were, " DisaPpoint_
merit to the Disaffeded, and Solitary Confinement
-to those who are dangerous in Society ;" which was
well understclod, and drank with corresponding ap.
plause.

The day passed off with the utmost conviviality,
and in a manner highly pleasing to every individual
present, and, we have no doubt, particularly gra-
tifying to the worthy Alderman whose personal in..
terests in the City the company were assembled to
celebrate and 'support.

afterwards the QUEEN and ROYAL FAMILY, which
were drank individually with appropriate marks of
respe6l. The next coats were, " the Lord Mayor
of London, Independent Livery, Ste."
Upon Mr. Alderman Cu ans's health being &ink,
he took occasion to repeat his Political Creed, the
assertion of which did him so much honour upon the
litistings, that the Representative of Freemen should
himself be free, and this was given as a toast, and
received with great 'enthUsiasm by the Company.
