In the Course of the evening the Lord Mayor proposed
the toast of "Her Majesty's Judges," coupling with it
the name of Lord Campbell ; and, in bringing forward
this toast, his lordship adverted to the conduct of the
three judges engaged at the recent extraordinary trial at
the Central Criminal Court, which afforded, he said, a
remarkable proof of the learning, impartiality, and ability
which now adorn the judicial bench of this country.
Lord Campbell, in acknowledging this compliment,
said, in reference to the recent trial, that he felt con.
zinced all the members of the bench would have devoted
co it the same anxious attention, and the same earnest
lesire for the honest administration of justice, which the
Lord Mayor bad been kindly pleased to recognise in the
conduct of his (Lord Campbell's) two learned brothers
:Lod of himself. The noble and, learned lord subsequently
tated that although he believed the corporation of the
Jity of London required reform in certain particulars,
ao hoped that for many a generation to come her Ma
jesty's judges would have the pleasure of meeting in that
'all worthy successors of the distinguished gentleman
.ho at nreseot fitted the office of chief magistrate of
th it ancient city.
A nuttier of use toasts of the evening was, " The Health
of 14. r. Dallas, the American minister in this country."
The LORD MAYOR, in proposing this toast, expressed
;lid regret that Mr. Dallas was prevented by business en-
4agetnents from joining them that evening ; and he then
proceeded to express his earnest desire that the most
riendly relations should continue to exist between two
•ations united by so many ties as England and the
States of America.

. DALLAS, jun., briefly but cordially responded to the
toast, and —aid that nothing but the important claims of
public businetis could have prevented his father from en-
joying the pleasure of assisting at that festive meeting.
Seine other toasts were also given and duly honoured,
before the festivities of the evening were brought to a
conclusion.
