The anoiversary dinner of the gentlemen educated at Ilarrow School took place On Saturday, at Willis's Rooms ; Sir Bobert Peel in the chair. 'Elle compeny consisted, for the most pan, of Tories ; and the followitig are given atoms the most distineuished of the guests. The

Marquis of Abereorn, Earls of Harrowhy, Hardwicke, Roden, and Verulam ; Lords Del:rosin Beresford, Deerhurst, Claude Hamilton, and Poltimore ; Sir 11. Hill, Mr. G. IL Dawson, Mr. Stuart 1Vortley, Mr. E•trourt, Mr. Neal, and Mr. A. Pelham. fter F411110 loyol teasts had Leen given, the health of the Governors of Harrow School was proposed front the chair. The Marquis Of corn in returning tleinks, cdoer yea that Ile felt it quite nuneeessary to expatiate on the merits of the school ; they bad only to turn their oyd sii the Mr:qt.:odds st,:tosoorn who tilled the chair. No argument was !medal fo poiht out a hat might be the future results of Harrow School—all tIrd was necessary was to express his convietion that it hadl done its duty in sending forth so great a ninl. The health of Dr. Isongley, head Master of Harrow, having been drunk, that gentleman in reply also eomplimented Sir Robert on his political eminence. Ile said— It would be very presumptudms in him to attempt giving the slightest sketch of the Iright career of the illustrious stiles-man a ho had reflected so much honour on [farrow School ; who, by bii upright aird halving:If...at conduct and splendid talents had, he could most safely say, vailed the confidoice of the couktry.

Sir Robert's health was then given by Dr. Longley ; and the ex. Premier spoke his thanks as follows— Ile expressed himself as being overpowered by the cordial and enthusiastic manner in which his health had been drunk. Ile was totally unable to give vent to his feelings. Ile thanked the company for the manner in which they had honoured the toast, and he accepted it as a token of their personal esteem. He should be guilty of affectation if he did not thus frankly acknowledge this impression. He also thanked them hr the unparalleled assembly which had been bronyht together that day ; one, in point of numbers, ?neer equalled ors any preceding occasion ; and which /de also at tribute! to the kind and generous Acuity of his friends. Ile belitred that it arose from respect to one who had filled high situatiwts, and who had probably, in iheir opinion discharged his duties in a way that commanded some dist; nction—(Checr;)—for which he returned his warmest acknowledgments. But whilst he thus felt personally proud of their approbation, be could not divest himself from the feeling that public approbation of his conduct was the richest reward he could receive. Consi- dering that to be a day set apart for a festive purpose, he would avoid any reference to political topics. lie felt it important to future anniversaries to avoid any allusion to such questions, but, as in past-gone times, to have one day's rest, and to obliterate political dissensions. Sir Robert then proceeded to express the satisfaction he hail experienced on revisiting Harrow School on Thursday last, when the speeches were delivered, and the reminiscences to which it gave rite. Ile had the honour of being on the seine form with the

greatest poet of mod i

ern times. Ile felt proud n so stating, that he was a competitor with hitu in a strenuous but generous rivalry, lee need hardly say that he alluded to an illustrious Harrovian, Lord Byron. lie recollected perfectly well when that eminent poet was in the speech-room and felt all that bashfulness or diffidenee for which he is so well known : he had to recite passages from the " Eneid," and in the dialogue hefts-cen Tot-nos and Latinos he (sir litthert 1k-el) personified the latter, and to encourage his drooping ,pirits, told him- " Sin et opes nobis, et adhue intarra joventirs.

Aoxiliotine lobes Italso maniple supersuut."

In conclusion,lw could not but recal to mind the powerful influence of early impressions—prejudices they might be called by some; but he never could forget the words of the poet, who, in allusion to our national feelings, observed that they " Float in the very atmosphere adt our public schools."

Other toasts and speeches followed, and the company separated. The third anniversary dinner in commemoration of the foundation of the Almshouses erected out of the money subscribed for a Reform il- lumination was held at the London Tavern on Saturday. Lord Brougham, according to his ddermination, took the chair. About L50 gentlemen were present; among whom were Messrs. O'Connell, Crawford, Pattison and Bannerman. Of the loyal toasts, that of the Duke of Sussex was by far the best received. Orr proposing the health of " his Majesty's Ministers," Lord Brougham took occasion to warn them against truckling to the Court— In addition to a formidable majority leagued against them in the House of Lords, they had in the House of Commons to combat a powerful Opposition, amounting to nearly one half the representation, and what was warse, an Op. position compo..ed of a cansims t and rtsdute body, while their own party was split in half a dozen seetiohs. but tlsorgh thus comparatively weA in point of numbers, he was proud to say tlt. • th: present alinistry were strung in honesty of purpo:e-strong in 0.- P ieh P. ti s y had to guide them-strung, he trusted, in the support of their c...1it y.
