TIIE DINNER.

A short time after seven o'clock. the numerous
and highly distinguished company, invited by the
Lord Mayor, sat down in the round room adjoining
the Mansion-house, to one of the most sumptuous
dinners ever set forth in that " hall of feasting."—
Every luxury which expellee could procure, and every
delicacy which taste could select, were laid before
his Lordship's guests. The richest and most costly
wines were abundantly supplied, and the Corpo-
rators, and those who were not of the Corporation,
had a most magnificent repast prepared for them.—
To this dinner there were not less than seven hun-
dred noblemen and gentlemen invited. Amongst
the company, exclusive of his Excellency the Duke
of Northumberland, we noticed the following dis-
tinguished personages :—The Lord Chancellor,
Lord Muskerry, Lord Bingham, Sir George Byng,
Lord l3rudenell, Colonel Bruce, George Moore,
Esq., M.P., Colonel Kingsmill, Captain Percy,
Archdeacon Singleton, Hon. Colonel Gore, Capt.
General, Colonel
I.3yng, Attorney-General, Surgeon-

Shortall, the French Consul, Sir Idward teal, the
Chief Remembrancer, Sir David C. Roose, &c. &c.
As soon as the cloth was removed the following
toasts were given from the chair :
" The King."—God save the King.
" The Duke of Clarence and the Navy."•—Rule
Dritanniit.

" The Duke of Cumberiand."— Hearts of dalt.
(Nine times nine.)
The Lotth MAYOR, in proposing the health of
the Lord Lieutenant, hoped It wriuld tie reeived
with the honours it deserved. Nothing but the
wish to meet the citizens of Dublin would have in-
duced his Grace to venture out in his present deli-
cate state of health. He was certain that if his
health permitted his Excellency to remain he would
do great good to Ireland. Ile pEoPoneti-::=
" The Lord Lieutenant and prosperity to Ire-
land."—Patrick's Day. (Three times three.)
The Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND rose amid load
cheers. He said that in returning his thanks he
assured the assemblage he received their marks of
kindness with gratitude. Every day he continued
in the country he felt increased attachment for this
land of brave men and of lovely wotnett.-..(Hear,
and cheers.)—Let them put away from themselves
every appearance of unseemly party. Let us,
said his Grace, all labour for the prosperity of Ire-
land, and we shall see the laws established upon
the firmest basis; and when they are administered
impartially, we way expect the blessings of trade
and commerce to follow.—(Hear, arid cheers.)
The LORD MAYOR said he should next propose
the health of the Duke of Wellington and his Ma-
jesty's Minister's.—(Cheers, and some hisses.)—l
hope, said the Lord Mayor, that it will be drunk
with that becoming respect that is due to them.—
(Cheers.)
" The Duke of Wellington and his Majesty's
Ministers."—He was famed for deeds of arms.

The Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND, in proposing
the health of the Lord Mayor, said that •-a person
more competent to fill the situation could not be
selected. He proposed—
" The Lord Mayor, and prosperity to the City of
Dublin."—Fly not yet.
The Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND gave three
cheers for this toast.

The LORD MAYOR, in returning thanks, observed,
that many abuses had crept into the public markets
which he was determined to redress; and also re-
lieve the distresses of his poor fellow-citizens.—
(Cheers.)
The next toast was :
" Lord Hill and the British army."—Britons
strike home.
Sir GEORGE BYNG returned thanks.
" Lord Leveson Gower, Chief Secretary for Ire-
land."—The tight little Island.
" The Primate and Church of Ireland."—When
order in the land prevailed.
Dean 111‘QuirtE returned thanks.
" The Lord Chancellor."—When I think on your
truth,,l can doubt you no more.
Sir ANTHONY HART returned thanks.
" Sir John Byng, and the army serving in Ire-
land."—British Grenadiers.

Sir JOHN BYNG, in returning thanks, said that no
country was more deserving of the best exertions of
our army; for in no country were the army received
with more kindess than in Ireland.—(Cheers.)—ln
no country were their services more liberally or con-
siderately returned. If his thanks were not re-
turned with that eloquence to which they were ac-
customed, he hoped that they would not think the
less of them, because they were offered with six-
cerity.—(Cheers.)
" The Attorney-General.”—Hope told a flatter-
ing tale that joy would soon return.
" The Lady Mayoress."—Kiss my lady.
" George Moore, Esq. M.P."—Bid me discourse.
Mr. MOORE returned thanks. Previous to his
health being drank, his Excellency left the room,
accompanied by the Lord Chancellor, the Chief
Remembrancer, and most of the respectable indi-
viduals in the room. Mr. Moore said he could not
but avail himself of the opportunity of deploring
that the bulwarks of the Constitution had been re-
moved. It was known to them all that the spirit of
innovation was abroad, and it was necessary for
them to be cautious in not permitting themselves to
be made unconscious instruments in undermining
their glorious Constitution. He hoped that the
endeavours to establish Protestant Colonies in Ire-
land would be successful, and that plan be deemed
the best security for the continuance of their Pro-
testant religion.—(Cheers.)
" Lord Blayney and the resident Landlords of
Ireland."

Lord BLAYNEY, in returning thanks, said that he
attributed all the miseries and misfortunes of Ire-
land to the exorbitant rents exacted from poor
tenants, and the absence of the great landholders
of Ireland.—(Hear and cheers.)
The Recorder and Board of Aldermen, the High
Sheriffs, and several other toasts, were then drunk.
The company separated at a late hour this morning.
'The" Glorious Memory" was not proposed.
