Yesterday was a busy day in the Metropolis, for eat-
ing, drinking, and speechifying ; in two instances these
were directed to the purpose of benevolence; we allude
to the Anniversary of the Royal Humane Society, and
the Freemasons' Charity for Female Children and
Orphans. In two other cases, we are somewhat at a ,
loss to discover the real objects of the Meetings. That
the Freeholders 0( Middlesex should celebrate the
Election of the Members whom they had espoused, by
an annual dinner at the Mermaid, at Hackney, is a very
innocent way of passing the bottle and a few hours ;
and that the popularity of Ministers should be one of
the topics is natural enough, since it is as familiar as
household words in the mouths of the Public—but that
any Gentleman, even after imbibing a due portion of
wine, should rise to deny it, is somewhat astonishing;
and yet such Mr. lIOBHOUSE is said to have done at the
Hackney Dinner yesterday, he is stated to have said
* While upon his legs, he could not help complaining of some aL
fusion to the growing popularity of Ministers, by his Honourable,
Friend (the Chairman). Where was it manifested? Ile protested
he ear no such appear:mei. It was true, they were not so bad as
the former Minister; for that was impossiblef /augh)—but he
believed that they participated in the same deep-rooted opposition
to popular rights. They were the same Ministers who bad passed
Gagging Bills, Suspension and Indemnity Bills, Alien Bills—and
.who formed a part of the machinery of thriefamous system of the
miscalled " Holy Alliaace"—(.ttpp/euse).—He insisted that these,
Ministers, though not quite so bad as others, were equally opposed
to the great question of Reform, without which it was in vain to
hope for safety."

Now, without contending for what is too notorious to
be denied by any person (Mr. Hostrousx of course ex-
cepted), that Ministers are popular, we may be allowed
to say, that if the reduction of taxation, the increase of
