On Monday evening, as

On Wednesday last a select party of
Mr.Chamberlayne's friends invited that gentleman to a dinner at the Dolphin, to celebrate his late election as a Representative of this town in Parliament,
F.L.Beckford, Esq. in the chair; After the usual loyal and constitutional toasts, on the health of
Mr.Chamberlayne being drank, the honourable gentleman addressed the company with much force and humour, thanking them for the honour which he derived from their attachment, and congratulating them on the independence of principle by which they had been actuated. He had understood that some other gentlemen had actually begun to canvass for suffrages, in the expectation of a dissolution of Parliament at no very distant period. He warned the electors to put themselves on their guard, to examine carefully the principles and pretensions of these candidates, and to support such only as would act up to the true spirit of the British constitution. From his early childhood he had been convinced, and he should cherish the conviction as long as life remained, that the choicest human gift that Divine Providence, in the plenitude of his mercy, has bestowed on man, is that of civil and religious liberty; a blessing to be cherished as the apple of the eye, to be watched over as the vestal tended the holy flame on her altar, to be contended for between the tombs of our fathers and the cradles of our children. -
On the health of
Mr.Beckford being given, that gentleman briefly but most energetically expressed his complete satisfaction in the event which so respectable a company had met to celebrate; and his determination to give to the honourable member, on every future
occasion, his most effectual and his undivided support. -
Mr.Marett, with the utmost frankness, declared his
determination to watch the Parliamentary conduct of the representatives of this place, and to demand of them, on the hustings, a public explanation of any thing that should appear to him inconsistent with their professions. He doubted not that
Mr.Chamberlayne would, at all times, be willing to give such an explanation; and he urged the friends of independence to keep the future in view, and by no means to give way to security or supineness.

Mr.Thomas Guillaume, sen. of Botley, (who died on the 16th inst.) were interred in St. Mary's Church-yard.

Mr.Penson's excellent company has on every night displayed the happiest combination of talent. It is generally remarked, that in provincial dramatic corps, some one or two of the performers shine resplendently above the rest; but this is not the case in
Mr.Penson's company, every individual of whom possesses talents of no ordinary description ; and they have altogether obtained, throughout the season, a degree of applause unparalleled at our theatre.
