he wished to say a very few words before he propo eel
the next toast. I have often (said his L..rdshil.) had the
honour of meeting you here under circumstances yes y
different from, and less auspicious than those under
which we ate at present assembled; but 1 hope, and
may say I believe, that you -are now participting iA
the general prosperity of the country ; and I feel the
it pertance of that circus) ranee, ant only for your own
sakes, but for the sake of the community of ohich you
are members; for, Gentlemen, I never can forget that
you ate the main pillar of its strength, its greatness,
and its glory. It is, therefore, with peculiar satisfac•
don, that I p " Prosperity to the Shipping In-
terests of theraci:d Kingdom”—(Apploare).-
The toast basing ball drank,
Mr. G. LTALL complimented the Noble Earl on the
important services which be had rendered to the'shipr
ping interests of this tountry. He was sure t 'ese ser-
sites were too well known and appreciated to render *
nate:slut for him to do more than propose " the health
of the Earl of Liverpool, the President of the Ship
Owners' Suilety."

my most sincere thanks for the honour which you have
conferred upon me. .1 should be ashamed to say tbric
in this society *bleb I would not say in any other com-
pany in the world; but I have always declared, and
made ft a part of my political creed, that amongst all
the great interests of this country, that of frovigaticii
was the most prominent and the most important. Al-
though I state this, 1 am aware that there are some
ponies present with whom I do not go the lull length
in their principles on this subject a; practically applied;
Gentlemen, it is the duty of the Government to hold an
even balance between the different interests of the State,
and not give than; one an advantage over another;
but if ever it Could be disposed to incline more in
favour of one than another, it ought to be in favour of
navigation. It has been an elect to remove, as much
as possible, the restrictions On ominerce, and to extend
it to every part of the -world but in saying this; 1
must add, that we have dote to *tt that was not
founded on justice, or c. mpetibk without engagement,
with all other Powers; and air we have pursued this
course as much for the benefit of the world at large, as
for the advantage of theßritish dortinions=(AppiaNse).
Mr. MANNINO (who :pole in Avery low corer), aftq
giving full credit to the Noble Earl and the rest of bit
'VlajegY's noisier: for their attention to the interests :of
navigation, said, he wished to propose tke health of
Another Cabinet Minister, than whom no man was nark'
attached to the commercial iaterests of the cottittry.
To those interests, in which we were all so deeply :in=
terested, he was sure that his attention would' be 'di,
'toted so long as he continued in public office. Re
therefore begged here to propo.e " the health of the
Right Honourable George Canning, and the rest of bre
Majesty's Minister.'
The plaudits which followed this toast continued several minutia:
Mr. Secretary Cauursio--Gentlemen, I beg leave
,to return you my most cordial thinks on behalf of my-
self and my colleagues. It is, as has. been said by the
Honourable Gentleman who has done me the honour. of
prcyosing my health in so flattering a manner, a suds-
factor y circumstance' and one that belongs to a fro*
country alone, that Ministers
.can communicate with*
their fellote-subjects on matters of the deepest interest
to the State, %Lir perfect sincerity, and the absence of
all disguise: and it proceeds from this that there ?c
nothing either in the external or internal policy of Eng-
land that Mill not bear the light, and become brighter'
on examination. Pot a long time we thought that our
commercial greatness, which was the foundation of out .
national honour, arose from some mysterious combina-
tion or artificial system into which other countries were
not initiated, We must not, therefore, blame other
nations if they acted ono theory, the principles of which,'
upon application, proved to be false. But the period
has now comes when. under favourable circumstances;
and with, the power of applying to the country the just
and wise maxims of sound, not spurious, philosophy,
Government is enabled gradually to carry on a systeni
of policy, as to commercial interests, of la plainer and
less artificial nature. We must not be surprised if other
countries, which are not so fir advanced in the prin-
ciples of true government, think that we are only
adopting a new mystery, sod that our present prosperit,
is derived from the practice of some new fraud. It was
difficult before to teach those countries the secret by
which we prospered s it is more difficult now to until-
tate in-their minds the troth that we preeper byname':
mama We esteemed no swami which all other met-
had not orally within themselves The selm-cf
oar prosperity is to astound in the indestructible ener-
gies off the &kids people, and in that spirit of enterprise
which is beyond all controul,extending their commerce
.cr the end of the world, and escitios the surprise e' all
meekind--(Obsere).--'rberse are the elements from
which aarprempe.rity springs, and therefore we feel an
interest la widening the sphere of their operation. Dot
this would ba a toeditintereet, if it ended with one own
aggrandisement. W ate axiom that other COMMIS

that every new field of enterprise will become the scare
of British valour, and serve to increase our national
glory—(4:Sees). To the consummation of that glory
there is ne anus eif men who have contributed mord
than the membert of the society whom I have now the*
honour of addressing, and I therefore feel the more
(tattered at the 'testimony I have received of your ap-
probation. (The Right Hon. Gentleman sat down
amidst loud and eontinueil cheering).
