The Ipswich dinner to Mr. O'Cosismaa, and the borough Members,

Messrs. Moitnisom and lirasoN, took place. yesterday. The Tory leaders assembled a party of the lowest ragamuffins in the town on Thursday night, and bribed them with gin and tobacco to create a dis- turbance on the following day. Accordingly, when, about one o'clock, Mr. O'CONNELL and Mr. WASON, in an open carriage and four, escorted by a procession of several thousands, reached the space before theGuildhall, they found the disturbers in possession of the best places in front of the hustings. These fellows were partially dislodged, amidst their own hootings, and the overwhelming cheers of the Re- formers, who were the vast majority. Mr. MORRISON and Mr. O'CONNEI.I. addressed the crowd, (whose numbers are estimated at about fifteen thousand,)' amidst interruption from the Tories mid en- thusiastic cheers front the Reformers. As Mr. O'Cosnasaa. proceeded in his speech, his eloquence seems to have compelled even his assailants to become listeners ; for the yalls and hooting were in a great measure suspended.

In the evening, there was a grand dinner in the theatre, the pit of which was boarded over, and the whole decorated with festoons of laurel. The boxes were occupied by ladies ; many of whom, even the Tory reporter of the Times and Post allows to have been "handsome, and indeed elegant;" but it is added, that they were doubtless attracted by "curiosity." The fact is, that the whole scene was tenant and spirit-stirring 'n a high degree. The chief speakers after dinner were Messrs. MORRISON, WASON, and O'CONNELL. Mr. MORRIsON, we observe, declared, in reference to the LYNDHURST Bill, that "he felt quite sure the Commons would not take it. If they did, it would be they who made a mistake, not the Lords. Backed by the Reformers of England, the House of Commons would compel the Lords to do justice to Ireland." We have no room for extracts from the speech of Mr. O'Costaect.; which, though consisting of the usual topics, seems to have been replete with novel imagery and illustration.
