MR. HUSKISSON.

LIVERPOOL, MONDAY Mesons'.
Saturday our worthy representative drove in to town
'from Sudley, the seat of N. Robinson, Fag. our worthy
Mayor • about four o'clock in the afternoon, accompanied
by his Worship, Sir John Tobin, and other gentlemen,
the Right Hon. Gentleman, who seems in the enjoyment
•tif vigorous health, appeared on 'Change • he was, on
entering the Exchange news-room, immediately cur-
rounded by a crowd of gentlemen, who honoured him
with a most cordial welcome, which must have been ex-
tremely gratifying to his feelings. Mr. Huskisson then
addressed the assembly in the following terms :
" Gessamszo,—Allow me to offer you my most cordial and
grateful thanks for this very kind and flattering reception. The be•
near of being thus noticed and distinguished by you, at this time, is
to me the more gratifying from being unexpected—unexpected, be-
.cause my present visit to my friends at Liverpool 'soot on any pub-
lic occasion, or with reference to any public event ; neither am I
here in any public character. lam here not to solicit further fa•
yours, but to make my personal acknowledgments (too tardily. per.
• haps) for those which I have already received at your hands. I am
here as a private individual, a Member of Parliament—one of your
Members, it is true, and, as suchustly proud of the high be.
tour of representing this great and enlightened community—
as such solicitously courting, as it bas at all times been my duty
and inclination to do. the most extensive and unreserved later.
course with my constituents upon all matters of public interest,
more especially those by which your useful occupations and
honourable pursuits are interwoven and identified with the
general concerns and welfare of this great country. In this
my individual capacity, I am ready, Gentlemen, to obey
your commands upon all points of local interest. I am anx-
ious to receive from yew suggestions upon those of a mere
general nature. The latter shall be considered by me with
the most careful attention, and with the most studious desire
to forward the views and wishes upon which they may be
founded. I have beard, with great concern, that the present
period is one in which the business carried on within these walls is
rather to be marked by the extent of the transactions than by the
amount of profit which they afford. I regret this state of things.
I hope, and believe, that it will not be of long derides; hot
whilst it exists, it affords an additional reason for my seeking
among you any information which your practical knowledge and
experience may enable you to afford, with a view to such relief (if
any there be within the reach of Parliament) as may tend to
mitigate the pressure, or to abridge the term, of the diSculties
under which the industry and commerce of she matey now labosr."
This speech, which was applauded throughout, was followed by
loud cheers. We saw several persons who did not job in the
cheering; but we did not hear them utter any audible sounds of
disapprobation against Mr. Huskisson. Two gentleman, who steed
.near us, seemed desirous of getting up " three cheers for the ship-
ping interest," la answer to those raised in favour of the Right
Honourable Gentleman - but as neither had the courage to pro-
pose the cry, the whole passed over quietly.
From the Exchange newsroom Mr. Hasidism ascended to the
Underwriters' room, where his reception was as flattering as it
had been in the lower room. He addressed the gentlemen pre-
sent, briefly recapitulating the remarks which be bad made in the
Exchange news-roost " One cheer more" was then proposed
and given, the Right Hen. Gentleman appearing highly delighted
with the reception which be bad received from the merchants of
Liverpool. Whilst passing through the lower room, after be bad
been up stairs, three or four persons made an attempt to hiss our
distinguished Representative.
Mr. Huskisson returned to the Town-ball, accompanied by the
Mayor and a number of gentlemen.

A Hebrew failure of some consequence has taken place
at Vienna : be was a great speculator in the funds there.
The Courrier Francais last published says : " The
losd,on Courier announced that M. de la FERRONAIYS
MI to take the place of M. de Pomo 'roc, as Ambassador
in London." This piece of news is not likely. M. de la
FERRONAIYS is gone to seek for health under the clear
sky of Italy. He could not live in the foggy atmosphere
of London. It is said, and with more likelihood, that the
post will be given to the Duke MONTMORENCY.
An article from Servia, says, that " it is observed the
beard of the SULTAN is already considerably shortened"
—.supposed to be in compliment to Mr. GORDON, whom
he admires very much ; adding—" it is well known that
he cuts his beard himself from time to time—his courtiers
following his example ; and there is no doubt that his
flicixxss will soon lay it aside altogether !!!" We trust
the hullertene•.• of this pie of news will be duly esti-
mated by the British public.
