POCKNELL'S POTTED SHRIMPS, from
the ISLE OF WIGIIT and CALAIS, Is. 6d. per Pot.
These Shrimps have long been proverbial for their delicacy and
flavour; and what renders them peculiarly grateful to the taste,
and far superior to any others, is their being potted on the spot,
immediately after being caught; and as a wholesome and delicious
accompaniment to the Breakfast, Luncheon, and Supper Table,
they are confidently recommended to the notice of the public.
Sold, wholesale and :retail,, at J. Poet:Nimes Shell and Dried

respectable Shell Fish and Italian Oil Warehouses iu London.—

to be ignotant that he was indebted to the office he held
for the, honour they. had just done him, but for the manner
in which they had expressed that honour, he felt much
obliged to them. In the office which he had recently held
he could say that it had been his constant endeavour to
maintain the just prerogative of the Crown, without in-
fringing in the slightest degree on the liberties of the sub-
ject. This should be his effort in his present office.—
(Applause.)

Lord LIVERPOOL proposed " The health of the Lor
Mayor," and

The LORD MAYOR returned thanks in a brief bat ever•
getic speech.
The Prince de. POLIGN ic then proposed " The health a
the Lady Mayoress," which was received with mud
acclamation.

. The LORD MAYOR returned thanks.
Sir C. WETHERELL returned thanks in behalf of his
Majesty's Attorney and Solicitor Generals, as did Mr.
WAITHMAN on behalf of the City Members.
At about ten o'clock, his Lordship left the Chair, follow-
ed by the ministry, when they joined the Lady Mayoress
and the ladies in the ball in the Council Chamber. The
arrangements of the day appeared to have been judiciously
contrived, but we cannot hut express our regret at the want
of accommodation afforded.to the Press, the gentlemen of
the different Papers being placed where it was utterly im-
possible for them to hear a syllable of what was said, were.
obliged to trespass on,a part of the hall allotted to other s,
which occasioned much inconvenience.
We subjoin the " General Bill of Fare."

GREEK LOAN.

Mr. Ellice has sent the following letter to a Morning Paper :
" Snettishani, Nov. 7.
" Sir,---I certainly did not intend to take further notice of the
calumnies with which I have been assailed relative to. the Greek
affairs, but it is necessary to deal more specifically with the insi-
nuations in your paper of the 6th.
" Four charges, if I must 60 call them, have been made
against me :

ht. That I received 10,000/. in March, 1846, on account cal
a steam-vessel, to be constructed under the directions of Captaiu
Hastings, which I retained in my hands, deriving a profit Irma ii
for nearly two years.

" 2d. That I received 14,000/. from Messrs. Ricardo.
" 3d. That I advised the Deputies to reject a conditional con-
tract for a lovn.made in Paris, by Mr. Luriottis, at the price pi
59, from interested motives.

And, lastly—ln your paper of to-day, I atu charged with
having stipulated with :Messrs. Ricardo, that I should rim*
supplies of military. stares, &c., -required by the Greek Goveri...
went, and to be paid for out of the funds of the loan.
In respect to the second and last charges, I know not what
more I can say, than that they are absolutely groundless and gra-
tuitous falsehoods,

With respect to the steam-boat, althoUgh it is true I received
an order upon Messrs. Ricardo for 10,000/. I only required tLat
order as a security, without which I did not choose to enter into
personal responsibility, on the faith of indemnity from the Greek
Depot', %. I did not receive the money upon this order, and it
was only paid to those through whom 1 ruade the necessary ar-
rangements, as they required it for current payments, or engage-
ments; and I have ascertained, that there was at no time an ad-
vance exceeding 1,7001., and seldom exceeding half that sum.
" It is also true that Mr. Galloway failed in his engagements as
to the stipulated period for the completion of the machinery. lie
was afterwards expressly directed to devote his whole time to the
preparation of the other Vessels, and gave this reason for the fur-
ther delay that occurred. With all this I had nothing to do ; and
I must add, in justice to Captain Hastings, who superintended the
whole process, from the laying down of the keel of the vessel, to
taking the charge and command of her when she went to sea, that
nothing was omitted on his part that zeal, industry, and persever-
ance, could supply.
.•

" With respect- to the loan, so, far from desiring the Paris con.,
tract to be rejected, it was always my wish the money should he
raised, equally, if practicable, in France and England; but,des-
p airing of any arrangement in Paris, an absolute contract had been
made by the Deputies with Messrs. Ricardo ; cud Mr. Luriottis
arrived, with his provisional agreement, the day after his col-
leagues had not only stipulated for the amount of the loan, but
that if more money was required, it should be raised, if they
thought fit to undertake it, through the agency of Messrs. Ricardo.
These gentlemen did not consider it for the interest of their sub-
scribers that the loan should be divided, and a categorical answer
required whether the contract was to be ratified by all the parties
or not. The especial reasons for my advice to the Deputies not
to hesitate as to their decision, was, first---that the loan in Paris
was only for a portion of their wants ; and that, although it was
negotiated at the nominal price of 59, the stipulated deductions in
favour of the. French agents so far exceeded Mr. lticarao's cons-
mission and the other reservations in the English contract, that
the proceeds would have been less ; and, lastly, from the convic-
tion that if the arrangement failed with Mr. Ricardo, after the ne-
gotiation had proceeded so far, it would have been impossible to
raise the money in this country. And lam ready to admit, with
my put experience, my sincere and deep regret, that this was not
ultimately the result.
_ .

" I do not understand the principle on which, iu an editorial
article, you have been persuaded to add your last' charge to the
others that preceded it. It is impossible it could hull originated
'informant ; for there is not the shadow of a pretence on which
such a calumny could be grounded ; and surely a little inquiry
was due to common justice, before you gave circulation to it. I
never made such it stipulation, or anyother, with Messrs. Ricardo.
I never dealt with a shilling of this or the former loan (except fin•
the cost of the steam-boat.) I never supplied either stores, arms,
or any other material to the Deputies, or their Government ; and
I rtiect with scorn the imputation, that I
could have, in any
instance, looked to .my connection with them as a source of
profit. I have neither myself derived, nor has any one connected
with me derived, one penny of advantage in these transactions.
" If I have had any concern in the Greek loan, it has been to
a very limited extent, and with other persons ; and Messrs. Ris
cardo, at the time of the contract, were unaware that I intended
to take the least interest in it. But this has been no profitable
operation, although, to its vast extent, I fully expected it would
have been so, and 1 entered. into it solely with the object et profit,
which► I suppose is the general principle on which persons deal in
such speculations: And now, Sir, I hope I have at last satisfied
you by an explicit and categorical answer to your inquiries,
What Mr. Luriottii says, or doe., is perfectly immaterial to ow,
and I only hope he may return to, his native country with a cha-
racter and with a conscience more pure than those he ascribes to
his colleagues, in their absence. My conviction is, they are all
guilty, or all innocent. lam now reaping the reward of many
an 'anxious hour wasted in endeavouring to reconcile their quarrels.
with one ;mother, and with other people, 'elite hope they might
devote their united exertions to the Cause of their country. I
have not only their faults and omissions to account for, but those
of others; and I could add to thin letter, forced from the solely in
vindication of my own character, some remarks on the manner in
which my name has been referred to, by other persons, in these
transactions, if I thought a continuation of these discussioue likely
to contribute, in the smallest degree, to any possible good. 1
" I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
" EDWARD ELLICE."

The death of Tie ina appears to have eveiteti
, A great
sensation throughout A the French pro..4,nees. At
Strasbourg, the apotheosis of Tahnt took place at the
theatre, and all the performers appeared in mourning.
The same ceremony took place at Lyons, and in some
other large towns. At Valenciennes, the inhabitants.
claim the honour of being fellow countrymen of Telma,
who they say was born at Poix, a village near Valen-
ciennes. Ihe journal of that city states, that there is
a hamlet in the neighbourhood which bears the name
of Talma.

TASTE IN Music.—An American gentleman has
just published some remarks on a tour he lately made
in Europe ; in the course of which he takes occasion
to observe, "all the sublime compositions of Haydn,
Mozart, Weber, Rossini, never touched my heart like
—Yankee Doodle ! !"

MACREADY'S FIRST APpEARANCEiII AMERICA.
—Mr. Macready, from the Theatre-Royal,Drury-lane, made hie Gist
appearance before an American audience, at the Park Theatre,
last evening, in the character of Vir,9inius. The house was top
full, and many who were unable to procure entrance, either to the
boxes or the pit, caught occasional glimpse. and a few words, by
studiug 4400 in the lobbies, and peeping through the box doors.
Expectation was raised to a high pitch by the fame which forerun
the arrival of this actor in America, which placed him atuong the
dirt his profession, and pronounced him a ripe scholar, and
gentleman of the most exemplary private character. Mr. Ma_
cready was welcomed at his entrance upon the stage, with 6,d,
long, and enthusiastic plaudits, which were renewed at every op.
portunity during the whole of his performance, and, we may add,
frequently when nn opportunity afforded, and when the rattling of
canes and clapping of bands interrupted the progress of the play,
and annoyed thou who were more anxious to hear, than t,
blish their critical acumen by noisy applause. Mr. macr4l"
