THE FLOYD DINNER.

We should have published the proceedings and
toasts that grew out of this dinner, if there were a.
ny thing new in them-but the letter of Mr. Giles,
(who had been invited as a sort Of mdketgeight,
but could not attend, being a mere "tnnfaron-
nde Of distractions, y and the speech OF Mr.. Floyd
being a new edition ofthe complaints ofthe oppo.
sitlon, and a eulogy upon their great patriotism,
they do not seem to us to offer much attraction.
And, then, as to the tOdStS-with one or two ex-
ceptions, they are so very dull and heavy, thai
we're We to judge from them, rather than the
known elegance of Mr.. Hallam's entertainments
we should infer he had given his guests nothing
but malt liquors, instead of generous Burgundy
and sparkling Champagne. Ii is a common
saying, which must have had some influence on
the gormandizers, that when we are in Rome,
we must act like Romans" The tonsts seem to
If the guests had met for the purpose of exhibit
ing their skill in showing how many different
forms and aspects could be given to the same
general terms, they would have been entitled to
a premium. Nearly all oil tIlem are directed a.
gainst the administration but, as we before re
marked, they are entirely too p~ointless to excite
any other emotion than laughter from the friends
of the gentlemen whom they 50 unanimously as
sailed. One Of them, however. we must give, on
account ofthe Ualuable information it furnishes,
as we'll as the sublime quotation with which it
concludes. Here it is:
By Thomas Ritchie-IIenry Clay, a son of
Virginia, the brilliant Orator, the man of Genius:
now, the Secretary Of State under John @, Ad-
ams-who,
Like the base Judcan, threw a pearl (the Presidency
away,
Richer than all his tribe.
This toast exhibits in a wonderful degree, the
faculty of condensation, which has always been
conceded TO the author. In tao lines, he gives
us to understand the birth place and the career
of MIR. Clay-the peculiar character of the fame
which he had acquired-the Office which he now
Glls-and that which he threw away How
brief, and yet how luminous But, what is meant
by the last line of the quotation" Richer than
all his tribe :" We ask for Information.
