The Lord Mayor Of Dublin'...
You illreceve n acoun ofDUnLIN;, Friday, Oct. 1. You'i,idreeiv al acoun Oflast lighit's proceedings at the 'Maltsion..house from the Deiblin papers of thig (lay. TFhe Lord AMayor, as I before iniformed you, seemed well- dispos-ed, so far as his ability went, to exclude all iflanifes- tmtiodl of party spirit oni the occaioni. In the civic proces- $ion wvhicb took place in the morning, thie trappings' of hiis equipage displayed nioie of those 0.asnge insignia which, unti! of late years, scarcely eve-r flailed to dlecor-ate or disfl- care the unconscious animals that drew the chief' magis- 67ate of Duiblin through the hissing -crowd; anid the toasts which were given from the chair after diinner were sutch as evinced a de-sire to pay equial respec t and attenition to all pard, s, without giving offbnce to aniy. So lonig as- the Lord Lieutenanitcontbitued present, the rules of decoruim were not violated, except in onie inistance, anid that was ilponl thle health of the At terniey.General being- proposed. Tile ap-. probation which followved thie annouinceineest of this toast n-as mingled wvith conisidlerable hissing, whichi, you will perceive, wa% niot unnoticed by thie Right Honiourable anid 1Learned Gentleman whiet returiniig thaniks. Had thle-in- decencies of t!'te eveniing, however, been conifined to this sin-le occurrenice, 'one mighit feel dlisposedI to treat the coni- duct of the parties from whoim it proceeded tvith some indulgenet' 'even if onie were obliged to look for a palliative so far hack us the per-iod of thie muerorable ex offci-o inf'orinatiois, the indiividuals against wvhom those in.judioious proccedings were resortedI to being miembers of their bodly. But the Ocangeinen-i wvere niot tontent with. this. Mr. Canniing's health, indeed thley suiffered to be thzanik with sulleni silence on; their part; although it elicitedI lout! demonstrations of re- pect froii that portion of thle company by w"hom th.- LordILieutenanrt was more ii-uine- dliatd-l snrround,' d patcual fromi his Excellency himself, -who recei,,d it wvith a feelinig almnost bordering onl .IYiitUsiI~ I. he noble NMarquis's owni health wvas also ur-e; I-sv. biut I think it is to b-e regretted that whlen t"s lxceliercey wvas nroposing prosper-ity to the Corporationi ef TDublin ,'he thoughit proper to appl y to the in the wordi ti.Thj5is a- emwol uninitelligble to thlese genitle- n e~zcept as conucete~d with the undivided possessionl of M1illi.ron anid official emolnitnenit; in whlichi senlsety rs' cchciv-- canniot tell on wihat ground, except it be t~tof prescriptioin, or perhaps JPrOecriplion-that thiey 11.1'e ~;-eclusive claim to th' e dsgationl. %VhenI, ihffcF64r~ the Lord-Lieutenlalt lutter-d the- word, althoughi ltectidently use,I it in ironiy, fbr he repeated it andl pro. 'Ica1inecd it ermphitically, the soundi( operated with a talis- vmoaic e-ffeet upoin their sensVs, in recallinig to their recol- h'c- ion the mtultitude of gotld things of wh'ich it hiad secured ib,m the monlopoly for ages, and in fillinig thienin withi des. pr'iation a-t the prospect that hias at length begunl to open, of their fellow-subjects paiticipating in thle cred~it and( the fruiits of attachimenL to thle Conlstitutiont. TIhe mnaster-chord bigthus, touched, an,!l their minds '' attunted to discord," Master Ellis, the calibre of whose capacity is hiardily of in- ft riot- din,ensions to that of' the hiumiblest corporator :i-mongst thiemi,.was tine first to sound the tocsin of disunion., 1,.calling conciliation '' a humibug." TIhis party feel tatconectliationi is thte destruction ofthtleir loyal mionopoly; Isnd to conciliation, therefore, thiey have vowved eternal hos- td isiy.Acordinigly, as sooin as thelearned gentlemian concluid- - !l.saddress, there was a call for - the Glorious Memory.' [he call was of course uniattend(edI to, anid regularity prevail- .dl for somne time longer. The Lort! Lieutenanit, hiowever, had not long retiree! when the Orangwemien theni presenit, nhe'-ut fifty in number, rnustered thei force, at one table, 'ndif at thne very mroiment wheni a genitlemnan's hiealth was ilrat k, andI that genitlemnan in the act of risinig to retuirn thanks, the redoubtable Mr. Sutter (not Suttoni, as you have misprinitedl the niame) sprang uipon hiis legs, arid withi his characteristic good fceeling and good breedinig, proposed the obnoxious toast, whiceh was received withi vulgar exul- tatnon bv the rest of the select party. I have alrearly in- form-ed youi, wheni ment,ioning howv the proposal of Alder- iran Smnith, the late Lord Mlayor, to present a comiplimeni- tary addlress to Mr. Canninig was def'eated, whio and whlat thsMr. Sutter is. I have the very best authority for starting, that thie situation of Supervisor of Metal MNain Ac- counts, which he now hlolds, was procuredl for him tbromagh the ir-fiuence of Alderman Smithi, subsequently to hlis (Mr. S"utter's) failure in tratlc. It is but candid, hlowever, to- inareverhe worthy Alderman, to aay that he disavovsa hav- in vrapplied'islilulc to Such a purpose ; and it is ntsurprising that so i ntelligent and discreet a mnan as Al- ,tc~-mlan Smith shouild be anxious to disclaimn haviing had any share in the adlvancemenit of ani individual whose only Tnertit, as a public chiaracter, conisists ill a violenit propensity to keevp alive all v-ulgar- prejudices, by repeatinghckee party sentimnen ts, couchied in language hardly intliil o i., barbarism ; antI by resortinig to every little srtgmh ,can dev-ise, to frustrate the exertionis of respectabeadsn ,beme,, to pronmote the union andt happiness of their fel- low-countrymen. It is now generally understood, that it was the determination of this loyal man and his party, -Yhlo are niot less remarkable, conlsidjerilng the mischief they createP, for their contemptibility in poinit of rank andI nuin- hers, than for their desperate hardihood, in case Mr. Cani- i 'ng liad waitedi to attend the dininer, to hlave offered this inisult to the ('apressedl feelinigs of thle Sovereign under the t-ev nse of tse IRight Hon. G entleman Isiiiself', as they hve now done ini the teethi of the chiief magistrat-e at whiose table thev' were sitting. and whiose hiospitalities they wvere <-r'Joying. Wh'ly are suchi characters invitedI? NEW 'LORD AMAYOR. [Front the Frectnan,f'sJour-nel.] yester~day (September 30J), the Lord ma yor for thie ensluinig v,tr (Alder-man Drury .)one.s) was swom into office, belfore hi, Excellencv the Marquis Wiellesley, who amfived at the Castle, rrom the Vice-regal Lodge, at half-past two o'clock, escorted by a Fu,rd of the 9th Lancers. The Inatuguration Dinnier was given in the great circular building, caiied the Kinz's Room'. li* Excellency the Lord Lieutenant, asrcended by his numerous and splendid state suite, arrie at half- oust s-even o'clock, and shortly afterwards the Lord Mlayor led the wary to the diniing apartment. On the rhrht of' his Excellency t'ae Lord Lieutenant, sat the -,n Ear-l of Clanrickardte next to hiim were Lord Rathrtlownl, ,Sr John Mortlocke, the Chiief Rememrbrsiicer (Ali. Blake), Sir ftdquhoun Griant. the Dean of St. Pan-ick's, the late Lord Mlayor, .~ec. &c_. On the'left of Oie llarq,uis WVelleslev, were the presenit Itod Mayor, ILord Gort, the Chici Secretary, (Mlr. Goulbiurn), the A 1trornevr.Gnera.l,Sir Itoh.-Shaw,I Judge Jebb, tbeSolicitor.General, AJr. Snteyd .1P., 1Al as~ter Ellis, Cot. Shawe, Sergeant Leftroy, &c. &C. The health of His Majesty was received wvithi greata plause, and w,as folwdbytentional anlthem, "1God Save the kling.' Tuie o"-cr toasts which succeedied elicited nothing worthy of' notice un- til the health of the illustriouis guest, the Lord Lieutenanlt, wa,s announced. Thti: towst was extrenely well received. The band playe-d "1 Patrick's Day, whiich the company encored. Siljence beinihg at length 1~obtai,ned,i His Excellency' rose, and expressed his ecknos Iedgzt, wth great f'eeling, energy, and ,eloquence,. lie Said it had breti hiis dluty to address uli s Fembhiies in circumstances of difficulty anti distressi bitt he hart ne- 'errCt more pleasure in addressing a great meeting than he did at the, present mnoment. All tire wealth, and power, anid dignity, which roast Could bestow or enjoy, ivere valueless, whien put in compiarisoni u-ith the approbation of a free and enlightened people. To serve Irciand was the aimi and obiject of all his measures. To that end "ojidchy continuie to be directed. Next after the sanction of hi,s ouzn heart, lie estimated the approval of the people of this fine coun. re, nd particularly of' this, his native citY. How deligbtfal it was to obtain that sanction to his official conduct he fell-exquisitely felt. The kind and affectionate maniner in wvhich his health was drunk proved incontestably that he possessed the confidence of the citizens oflDublin. In return,he would assure them ithat their con- fidence tatuti not be reposed in any one more zealously attached to tisi~istceat. n concluison, his Excellency said, he wouxld have the onor, i th Lad Slvorwoud permnit hnin to propose a tast~lt as bir- Th Lor Maor, Algermen,' and Corpora- sosm~eli ciy ofDubln, nd posprity to that ancient anid loyal Ce~~mittio. Ths tastbrouht ownpeals of aoplause. Aftr iomeothr tass, he oanillYOt sid, he had now to repaatoasVwic he felt particulrpesr in announcing, and -. ha lhe ad no dtht would be reivdwt similsr gratification tl dieconpamgy. His Lordship gave the health of " HIis Mlajesty's Ateasey-Geeralfor Ire].and." thi oazt was, received with considerable and general applause. '-T 11arquis IlVeileslev, and the ather principal person of disin- tian at the Lord Mlayor's table, were partictilar in marking their ap- p 'Obain of it.Afe hisses, however, proceedesd from the lower e-nd oif the room, where cotine vulgar and violent Corporators were cincg te. hse ill-mannered niarks of disapprobation, tlhough cnie oavery rmall number of' perslons, were yet quiite audible, ealseemLEd to occasion much uneasiness, to ttie Lord Lieutenant, the ,od Mayor, and all the respectable part of the as;semb ly. Silence benego~btained, ._ MIr. PLUNKETT said-AMy Lord Mlayor, mTly Lords atid Genitle- men, I a very scensible of the honour you, have conferred on me. I thank you for drirking my health, and for the manner in which y.u have drunk it. Hsaving said thus much, perhaps I ought not to say more: btut there was something in the reception wvhich my name expet-icocod. that makes me u!nswilling to sit diown without declaring. th?t during an intercourse with the citizens of Dublil, of 40 yearsi *-tanding, I am unconscious of having conmmitted a single act, or entertained a solitary thought, hostile to their interests. (Anplause.) Sad2es of difFerenea on political subjecis do not necessarily imply hositiity; and whilst I pursue what I believe to be the path of pub- lic duty. I profess myself most anxious to see harmony and good fecl .r- p.revail amongst my fellow-citizens at large. The IORD LiEUTENAXT now proposed the liealth of the ILady Ievores.s, whioh was drunk with lend applause, the band playitig Kiss ny L<dv ;" and the Lord Mlayor, in brief btit appropriate terms, expres2ed his deep sense of the compliment conferred on her Lnrlyship. The Lord Lieutenant then rose atid retired, the same cereamonies being observed as when lie entered-the banid playing Godi save the King," and the company standing. M;aster ELLIS, in-returning thasrks, observed, that no man would co greatcr lengths to unite all parties than he, but there were limits beyond which he would not go. He never would allow the humbug cm,cirgjua to becmade the watch-word to overthirow the conititution. (Loud zhoutisg.) Such were the feelings to which he owed the dis- tinguiahed honour of representing the most efficient portion of the ci4i'ZeS of Dublin, and those feelings he should be ever reacly to avow and maintain. They were aware that he could not again have the honotir of soliciting their suhfrages, but he trusted his sucgcssor would be stanch and firm in support of those principles which had ever distinguished the Corporation of Dublin. (Tremendous applause, and cries of ' The Glorious llemory," followed the hon. gentle- man's speech.) About one o'clock, a group of forty-nine persons collected at the front of the centre table, where .Mr. Sheriff' 'arren sat, amongst whom Ai r. Sutter was the most conspicuous. The Lord Mavor had annourncedi the hacalth of Alr. Gregory, but Mlr. Sutter, wltl sten- torNn lungs, drowned the voice ef his Liordshiip, and gave withi dis- tinct and marked emphasis, " The Glorious and Immortal ile- mory," whichi was drunk by his party with the usual noisy demon- sirations of triumph. Alderman Arcller, who appeared in earnest conversation with this loyal portion of the cornpany, took his seat amongst then,, andi imatediatelyafter the toast, attetnpted to address the Lord Mlayor, whichi created considerable contiusion. The Lord hlayor requested silence, in orler to Itear AMr. Gregbry, jun., who was alout to rctuin thank>s on the part of his father. Aldrrman Archer continued to pronounce with emiphasis, " Mly Lord Mllayor," " ft! LordI Mayor.' At length, throughi the exertions of Air. Fearon (thie Lord Mfayor's Secretary), silence wae restored, and Alr1 i(regory permitted to pro- ceed, whici he ilid very shortly, and with much effect. Aldlerman Archer dil not resume his address to the Lord Alayor, although the patty appeared anxious lie shiould; and at thc momemt we left the room (two o'clock), thie Lorl Mlayor still presided, and tranqullity appeared to be the order of the ighit. CIVIC DINNER. SVe mentioned yesterday, that the healtih of his MAiijesty was well received at the new Lord 1lnyer'8 dinner on Thursday. It is pro- per, however, to add, that the reception of the toast when it was an- nounced by the Lord Alayor wa. remarkably cool. Indeed, it seemed to be the intention of tbe majority of the assembly to'paqsit over tn silence; but the L2ord Lieutenant cheered it with all that spirit andl animation for wlticl, he is so remarkable and the signal being thus glvenb a general expression 0f' approbation was drawn forth. *Vere it not 'or the attachment of the Alarquis WellesloY to his illustriotus Sovereign, there can be no doubt but tbe King's health woultl have been drunk without any particular distinction. rHE LORD AlAIOR OF DUBLIN'NA UGQURATION,V -DINNER.
