"dsplendid affair it was. Mr. Lainson, the
. a very
keeeessful candidate for Surrey at the election before last,
tssi now candidate for the aldermanic gown, vacant by the
ration of Sir R. Carr Glyn, took the chair, and was faced

Aise, eor the same civic honour. After the usual toasts were
treate the Chairman proposed " The greatest good of the
st
e number" Liberty of conscience and freedom of
,tlebe„ll"--- —,,
and many other sentiments of a strong liberal ten-
healbut the greatest enthusiasm was manifested when the
tett`u of the Members for the City was proposed. The large
ford° Waving of handkerchiefs and cheering did not subside

Les or parties, but was a mere demonstration of respect to
tiolt "unghushand, the proprietor of the house, these exhibi-
ohsB cf liberal opinions were the more striking. Many of the
tlis-t"41°11 Council were present, and several of them declared

Iktit."l Treasury Bench and its opposite, from which most
