A correspondent of the Liverpool Albion states ' that at the

Newton Tory iinner, the dishes were attacked before they reached the table ; and that he saw Liverpool Tories have a regular fight for a hare, which they tore limb from limb, like a pack of hounds..

The Edinburgh gor- mandizers were not a whit more ravenous or ill-behaved than diners-out in the Southern section of the island, of all parties; for good breeding is neither Whig, Tory, nor Radical exclusively. The "lower orders," as they are contemptuously styled, conduct themselves at public dinners with just as much real politeness as some gentlemen of high degree.
