DINNER TO MR.. LEIGH.

The dinner given by the citixens Of
Petersburg 10 MIR. Leigh on Wednesday,
was most nnmerously attended. More
than three hundred persons were present.
and among the guests Mr.. Tyler Of the
u. .. Senate, add Mr.. Aseher Of tho
House Of Representatives. Several svbir
members Of the last ADD the present Gen.
eral Assembly. 4 large number Of gen.
tlemen from the adjoining counties, uni
ted with the hospitable Inhabitants Of
Petersburg. 10 do the honor TO one
Of our most viriuous and patriotic
citizens. Mr.. Leigh has always been
strongly attached TO the generous and
public spirited people Of that town, and
they cordially reciproca,e his warm and
honorable feelings, AS was manifest upon
this occasion. A dinner Of three hundred
gentlemen is no small affair for a town Of
the size Of Petersburg, and State like the
Old Dominion. There has not been so
large an assemhlage by half, upon any
similar occasion in this city, within the
period Of our recollection.
MIR Leigh delivered long g. animated
speech distinguished by that manly eIo-
quence which has secured him 80 many
admirers in this city. and indeed wherever
stances of his election TO the Senate and
| stated that the appointment had been en-
tireiy unsolicited by him. for the truth Of
which he appealed 10 the gentlemen then
present who had been members Of the last
General Assembly. He spoke Of the part
he had acted at Washington, and oil his
inability, from the circumstance Of hi, then
situation, to render any effective service
to the country. He exposed in master.
~ manner, the intrigues Of the friends Of
the Vice President, there and here. show
ing up the black hearted maiignity and
selfish sinister designs. with which they
had labored TO defame his political repu.
tation He alluded 10 the President in
the respectful language due TO the high
Office which he filled. and 10 the people
who had elevated him to 1t, denouncing at
the same time the odioas tyranny OF his
measures. and making plain " TO the mean
est capacity"t the violent g. alarming char.
acter Of his disastrous administration. Ha
spoke Of Van Buren,. as a person who had
said +" it was glory enough TO bave served
| under such a man" Gas General Jackson
and denounced the mean slavish spirit Of
that de ssiDg sentiment, and the man who
could utter it. &c. &c. He was repeated
ly interrupted by loud bursts Of applause.
Governor Tyler addressed the company
in his happiest style, holding up to The scorn
and ridicule Of his hearers, the ignorance,
duplicity. and blunders Of our blessed ru-
lers. The tables were in roar Tor an
hour. He was interrupted at almost ev.
cry sentence by the noisy applause. which
his inim,iable satire was constantly calling
forth.
