were directing the attention of the rising generation
to those who deserved esteem, and teaching the
youth of the country how, by undeviating integrity,
perseverance, and devotion to public interests, a man
might acquire honour and fame. On that account
he felt the greatest satisfaction in attending there
that day, and joining in the honour which was being
conferred upon his departed friend. (Applause.)

Mr. Villiers then directed the removal of the
drapery which covered the statue, and the first im-
pression of the monument was expressed in a round

of cheers.

Mr. VILLIERS said, in the name of the Memorial
Committee, he begged to transfer the statue to the
mayor of Salford, on behalf of the Corporation, who
had undertaken to receive it. It was impossible not
to admire the production of the art and ability of
the sculptor. The resemblance of the features was
most precise, and the expression of the countenance
was most faithfully pourtrayed. It was a glorious
recollection of the original. (Applause.)
