GRAND DINNER

TO •(HI
SOUTH TYNE YEOMANRY CAVALRY.

Toe!ddy the 4th instant, an elegant Enter-
tai,:ment was given by the Magistrates of Chester
Ward, in the County of Durham, to Lieutenant-
Colonel Sir TnomAs ButtpoN and the Officers ut
the South Tyne Yeomanry Cavalry.

At half-past five o'clock about forty Gentlemen sat down
to dinner, at the Black Bill Inn, Gateshead, comprising a
great proportion of the Alagistraey of the District, some of
the Deputy Lieutenants, and several of the Officers belong-
ing to the Corps of the Right Hon. the Earl of Strathmore,
and Sir Thomas Claverin4,,, Baronet. The Chaim was most
ably filled by Adam Askew, Esq. of Red-Ileugh ; and the
same may be said of the Vice-Chair, hi which was seated
Robert Shaw, Esq e.f Usworth-house. The Dinner itself was
in every respect deserving of praise : It consisted of three
separate courses, served up in excellent order, and was ex-
hibitory, in fact, of all that was choice, delicate, and
in season. The wines, too, were equally entitled to notice
they were such-as might please even the fastldious palate of
a refined Connoisseur. Shortly after the cloth was withdrawn,
and immediately subsequent to the Toasts of " The King,"
add " The Prince Regent and the Royal Family," the Chair-
man rose, and, in an impressive Address, proposed the
health of Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Thomas Burdon, and the
Officers of the South. Tyne Yeomanry Cavalry—a Corps—
(the worthy Chairman observcd)—that was well entitled to
the best praise lee could bestow; for they were ever, and
upon all occasions, ready to assemble when the Civil Power
sought their assistance. And it was strictly due to them to
say, that when the bugle sounded, a quarter of
.an hour
could hardly elapse before they were on horseback, •at their
post. Such promptitude arid such efficiency in the whole
body of the men could not be too much noticed, ma- too
highly appreciated. And most assuredly the Magistracy,
collectively, felt as he did individually, that the Country
was greatly indebted to those patriotic and honourable indi-
viduals who sacrificed their private convenience to the public
weal. Under these circumstances (continued the speaker)
declare that I have inexpressible pleasure and satisfaction
in seeing round the table those meritorious and gallant Men,
who compose a force so congenial to the Constitution, and
who, when called Upon, invariably display that alacrity and
zeal on behalf of their Country. which is, in fact, beyond all
praise. Thus impressed, (added the Worthy Chairman) I beg
leave to return my best thanks to Lieutenant-Colonel Sir
Thomas Burdon and the Officers of his Corps, for honouring
the Magistrates of the District with their company this d my;
and, in drinking their health', I, from the bottom of my
heart, wish them every possible good hick and prosperity.—
The Chairman sat down amid loud and continued applause.

Sir THOMAS ButenuN then rose, and in an animated and ex-
cellent Speech, of which the following is a mere outline, re-
turned thanks for the honour which the Chairman had, in so
truly handsome a manner, conferred upon him and his
Brother Officers. If, said Sir Thomas, I am thanked for the
efficiency and Soldier-like- conduct of the Corps I have
the honour to command, I am but dealing justly when
I aver, that it is to themselves—both Officers and
Men—that I am beholden for receiving so flattering
and proud a Compliment by the Honourable Chairman.—
Their willing efforts at all times rendered it an easy and plea-
sant matter to me to carry into effect the instructions of the
Civil Authoi ities, And he had nu doubt, he added, but the
brave Men he felt such pride in being a Leader to, would ever
cherish the same sentiments, and hold themselves in readi-
ness cheerfully to obey their Country's Call—be that Call
either to face- a foreign enemy, or to put down the Hydra that
mizltt be en4endered by internal discort!.—Great applause
followed this Speech.

• following twists, besides many others, were drank :
The M•.igistrates of the District—proposed in a neat speech,
by r:oionel Sir Thomas Burden. Drank with cheers
and great applause. The Lord Lieutenant of the County—
the Right Nun. the Earl of Darlington ; drank also with
cheers and ,-eat applause. The Bishop and Clergy.uf the
iguished in the same inanner. The Right
Hon. the Earl of Stratl►:nore-_Cheers and applause. The
Lord Lieutenant for ►he County of Northumberland—his
Grace the Duke of Northumberland—Cheers and ap-
plause. The Mayor of Newcastle—honoured with the
same distinguished notice. The Members fa. the County.
Sir Thomas Liddell, Baronet, and the Yeomanry of Barens7
worth ; Cheers and applause. The Rev. G. H. Liddell re-
turned thanks, observing, lie could answer for the senti-
ments of his Brother, and how n►nch he would feel gratified
at the tumour conferred upon him. The Lord Chancellor
and Sir William Scott—two individuals that did great honour
to the North. Cheers and applahse. Sir 'Thomas Bnrdon
rose and returned thanks in neat and appropriate terms. Col
Brandling and the Northumberland Volunteer Cavalry.
Loud cheering. The Poet Laureat of the Corps—Dr.Trotter.
I)r. otter returned thanks. The Secretary of the Corps—
Mr. Grieveson. Mr. G. returned thanks. This, till a late
hour, did the rosy wine keep circulating, mirth and merri-
ment being in possession of the table.

Several excellent songs weer sung in fine style, by Captain
Dutton and Lieutenant Small, of the Tyne Cavalry, both
great proficients in the science of Music. Nor must we omit
to notice more than one Cantata by Mr. Gateshead, which
justly entitle him to honourable mention. Thus held toge-
ther by various attractions, it was a late hour before the com-
pany departed, highly ;ratified with the elegant arid pol►te
entertainment they had in so many forms experienced.

Ft:tn.—There has been no scarcity of alarms
of lie doting the past week at Bristol. Tuesday
night, about eleven o'clock, a fire broke out in
the premises of Mr. Williams, coal and wood-
&r. Newfoundland-street ; but it W 136 soon
subdued by rite firemen, without much damage.
--111 is supposed that :he premises were wilfully
and maliciously set on fire by some evil dis-
posed person or petsons. About seven on Friday
evening, flames were discovered in an upper
room of Mr. J. Edward's hat warehouse, at the
corner of St. Matyport-street, which Was put out,
and the place watched till after ten o'clOck, when
ali apprehension of further danger ceased : but
at midnight the upper be:l-room of the adjoin-
ing dwelling-house, in Btidge-street, was vtsited
in a similar manner, to the injury of some of the
furniture, before, at imminent peril to one of
the firemen, th:-! flames were extinguikbed. Alarm
was excited in the sia.te spot about noon oil Sa-
turday, but prompt attention pit:seated further
mischief.

Oh ! 'tis sweet to retire from the World and it:; wiles;
And renounce all life's idle inducements to roam;
To Hy from its tumults, to court not its smiles,
And center our joys in the circle at home.

To trust hilt to those who we !mow are sincerei
And who in our paths never scatter7d a thorn
To live but for those who deserve to be dear,
And laugh this vain world and its vot'ries to scorn.

Not forced to applaud what, our heal ts disapprove,
Nor renttire in Whispers alone to come en ;
nut to place ail our hopes on the few that we love,
And kel tte are ,afe in depending on them.

Not iflly to linger, till time shall proelaint,
That. the st•arcil after pleasure 'mist shortly he o'er;
And nothing is left hut a weal; worn out frame,
And regret for the days Vilit:ll no powo'r can restdre.

Nit ere the g.ay summer of youth shall be fled,
To find ont the end of existence below,
And while we the sweet teari of tzratit ode shed,
Avknowledge this world bath no more to bestow.
