On a xe ocemloss hn the majority who bed supported the committee and the continuance of the present state of thioge—a majority of which the committee them ' selves formed so inasential, so gelded, so laudatory, and en Tory 'ergs • part—strongly objected to the drawing of say comparison between that institution and any like institu tion in the known world. Now, no such comparison should be heard from him that day. At previous meetings he had observed that details and figures were extremely unpopular, and ways certain to excite a considerable amount of resent ...it Ha hoped that the abstinence which he had resolved epos exhibiting himself on that occasion would be observed by both partite He should not on any account venture to eater into the details of the lest published accounts—so sen sible was he that it moot seem like the wanderings of • lanallo—to show in detail how 41 charitable distributions had cost, aa ths avenge, 131. each, that being absolutely more in theme cease then the mum granted, and how upon those 41 eases there wee a met of mom than 46 per pent , though only 16 of the mass were new ones, all the alms being those of persons who had been relieved from one to eight times. For these mama, and with • view to the promotion of pars! good-will among them, he should con fine himself that day to the assertion of a principle : in the fen of the public who se he had remarked on previous oocesiona, must in the end be the real judges in this matter, he wialted to tsetse upon bimetal and those who acted with Mel in this matter, the distinct assertion of a plain principle ; sad he wished to Whin upon the committee, .and those who them, the distinct assertion of • principle equally supported them, very moderate amendment which he bed to pro pose wet this That the accounts of the Literary Fund, showiag • systematic expenditure of from 401. to 461. In the giving away of every 1061. of grants, are not quite satisfac tory ; that such an appropriation of money, subw.ribed with • &arly-deffned charitable object, is not quite right; that its continuance as a distinctive feature of the Literary Fund is not so consistent with the profeesions the Literary Fund as to tend to uphold that institution in general confidence ; that such contutuance, therefore, ought not to be sanctioned from year tear, and is now protested against." This resolution wo uld,no doubt, be duly put from the chair, and duly negati and he and his :made would be contented with that result. It would then have been distinctly proclaimed " that the accounts of the Lite Fund, showing a systematic expenditure of from 401. to 461. in the giving . away of every 1001. of grants" were " quite satisfactory ; ' and, farther that the continuance of such an appropriation of money subscribed with a clear' -defined charitable object was quite right, and that it ought to be sanctioned from year to year, and not protested against. To the acceptance of his own responsibility,and to the throw ing their responsibility on the committee, he had steadily resolved to confine himself that day. He was there wholly and solely for that purpose, and no consideration whatever should induce him to swerve from it. In conjunction with two friends who were near him (Mr. Dilke, sen., sad Mr. John Forster), he bad written, and caused to be circulated among all the members of the society without any distinction of opinion, • printed paper, in which they had set forrh what appeared to them to be very grave self-evident objections to its administration and Its expenditure. If any champion of that administration and that expenditure should impugn any one of their statements in print, they would answer him • but be wished it to be distinctly understood that to skirmi shing 40090 1 1 from the one unqualified declaration that the present grim MI right, and did not require alteration, he would not Many way omWbute by his conduct. He would now give the comforting assurance that, after the resolution which be bed read had been put and disposed of, not we word would be heard from his lips or from those of Mr. Mike, or from those of Mr. Forster, until that time next year. (Laughter.) They assumed, as they were bound in courtesy to do, that their opponents had no more I desire to shrink from the broad, open, end manly acceptance of their responsibility than the had to shrink from theirs. Here in this resolution, read ark rely and read nega tively, were the two responsibilities for and against. Let each side accept lie own, and let both sides then go on their wajjejoiaing• (Laughter.) ear. J. FORA' seconded the resolution without making any reenerk. Ib. M. Maki rid—liad Mr. Dickens's argu ments beeneougaed to the oast miss, which he had jut de livered, he should not have felt it neomeary to reply ; but, as he had circulated • pamphlet among all the members who were living and some who were dead (laugh ter) he could not help taking some notice, as a tuber of the committee, of a production which had emanated from such high authority. He must Bret observe with reference to the resolution that on a question of principle there was no room for the use of the expreseion • not quite." Either MY Dickens was right or the com mittee were right, and in either mite such a qualifying term as ..F . t" was out of place. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Dickens had his position on that occ as aion, indeed he always did, the wittiest and most attractive form. He had told them, in effect, that the question was whether they should go on paying 40 or 46 per cent. for collection. Of course if that were the sole question it would be like the wanderings of • lunatic to argue it, but he contended that that sum mary mode of putting the question was unfair. It was only by entering into details that the matter could be properly understood. It appeared to him that the_gentlemen who ohms forward as reformers of the Literary Fund wen reformers in the same sense that the insurgent Sepoys were reformers of the garrison at Lucknow. The Sepoys might May. perhaps, that they only wished to appropriate the funds which they mixed to bettor purposes than they had been appropriated hitherto, and to destroy what ought to be de stroyed. In this literary siege daily injury waa being bp tikted on the recipients of the fund. (Hear, hear.) If the subscriptions to this fund had diminished, let it be dearly understood by the public that the so-called reformers was the cause of that diminution; and if, after the committee bed administered the fund with unimpeached lemur, they were almost accused of personal corruption, and if the public bemuse dissatisfied in consequence and persons who had been dis posed to make bequests to: the society were diverted from their p by Mess attacks—and he begged to say that he hadheard of such cases—then curdy he had • right to say that these gentlemen were not the reformers, but the de stroyers, of the moiety. (Hear, hear.) The committee had never wished for • moment to place themselves in an anta gonistic position towards those gentlemen ; on the contrary, they had sought their counsel and amistance, and bad aiked them to allow themselves to be placed among the governing body, in order that they might share in the administration of the fund. As to the expenses of collection, it should be recollected that the amount would be scarcely any larger if the fund were double what it wag; and he believed that had Mr. Dickens, Mr. Forster, and Mr. Dilke spent half the time and labour in ad vancing the interests of the society that they bad done in injuring them, the proportion of the expenses to the grants would not he one-half what it was. The principal objection on the ground of expense had ieference to the salary of the secretary, Mr. Dickens contending that they ought not M give NOI. while other societies gave only 601._ To that he replied, that Mr. Blewitt was peculiarly adapted for the dative of the office, and that his services in such a position were, in fact, invaluable. The maintenance of the house wee • fair subject fa consideration. Their opponents had not, however, confined themselves to such objections. The committee felt something like Indignation—he really must use that word—at Boding imputations thrown upon the general honesty and fairness of their con duct. Let it be observed where the opponents hid to go for materials for their assertions against the committee. In the pamphlet to which he had referred mention was made of two eases in which the members of the committee granted 1001. each to the widows of two gentlemen who had belonged to their body. Those cases occurred thirty yawn (Hear, hem.) There was nothing in the pamphlet to pre vent people from believing that they occurred within the last year ; and no allusion was made to the changes in the consti tution of the society which bad occurred Mare orto the fret c hat the husbands of the tidies hod rendered such service to the fend that the money was voted with acclamation. (Hear, hear.) He would not then enter into the difficult bow assistance might be best afforded to literary men sir Woe; but, having pondered the subject, he really did not see bow the thing was to be done better than it was by that missy. He friend Mr. Dickens had tried another way. The thim was no secret. Nr. Dichave hoped Mr. Milner would padre am no meet's in . He must remind his hon. friend that ie a ce between them on that subject he told him that thing had never been tried, because the act of pirliament would not allow it to be tried fur seven years. Year, hear.) Mr. Mite's continued—Well, it bad been tried so far as the eolitionoa of money was concerned ; and he must say that, considering the dthghtful way in which the appeal it meth to the public, he was astonished that a math largl i nue had not been obtained. (Hear.) Every possible means of securing support was resorted to. That aristocratic pairmage with which the committee of the Literary Fund were reproseled was net aegleoted ; and, he max add, that the aseistenee rendered to the caum by the late Duke of Devonshire, for from having produced anything like ill-will in the minds of the comneittes, enhanced their regard for him se • benefactor of literature. (Hear, beer.) His only object is makies this allusion was to illustrate the difficulties which attended the mama of such an object. Hs trusted that this nesting wadi teed, like that of last year, to show that this wee not a ems la which one literary clique was apposing theffiter bit • ease is whisk some half doyen of the most distlgnithell thwery men in the usury bed, somehow cw other—be would not smith of the weinthriap ofcould lunacy— m_ laugh the )—rjel into their beads that they adinister far better thee they were edminietered as preemd, and wee, in consequence yese attar year parwaing • mums with& tended to the dissolution of the society. (H ' ear bear.) Let him remind those gentlemen that they possessed great powers for evil as well Ns good ; sad he must say that, if they were soquabsted, as he was, with cases which had revelry been relieved, sad had reed the letters which had bees written by those oonceensd, the thought of having done anything to injure the society ink estimation, would not, he believed, con duce to their t mind. Dr. Wu.e.thia Burr' rid he should not have risen en the white t he that • phlet had bean written white the eemaninse were to answer, sad he regretted to see the mass of gentlemen whom he respected, as be did Mr. Dither, Mr. Dilke, and Mr. Foster attached to what he mud cell an unworthy production—(hear, bear) ; and be regretted, also, that they had tried to destroy a society that wee meant rely to relieve the neesseitiss of their suffering brethren. The committee were !always wili ng to promote refernis be the society, and he did not object to their finding fault with the maaagenient of it but what Mr. Miler had objected to, and what he also protested agelnet, was the manner in which it had been does; which had exhibited such • agirit that he was con vinoed they were not the friths of the society. With regard to the charges that the committee had dealt out the pittances of the society with • reluctant hand, he denied that such wee the cans. He did not think that the literary men should distribute the fends of the society. They did not come out of their pockets; and he thought that if they did have the management of them they would soma not have any to manage. Mr. Pewees Cooria asked if it was true that the expense of distributing the funds of the society cost over 401. in the 1001. m had been stated ? Mr. ROBBMT BELL Mid ha bad no knowledge of say ap plication having been made tor any portion dun funds to be eppropnated to the purposes of say other moiety. He believed that there was ao mode' on the part of Shoes gentlemen who brought forward the amendment but to do that which they believed to be strictly correct—(beer, hear) —and he tore asked them to believe that the committee wen acting entirely—believing that what they were doing was done from the same hefts'. (Hear.) He had examined everything concerning the soffiety most I minutely, and from that examination he believed that Mr. Dickens and his friends were wrong, and that the Om mitts. was right. (Hear, hear.) He aliened that List year the expense of distribution was nearly half of what was riven away, for the distribution amounted to 1,2261., while coll=was 5521., which included that of eseretary, se and distribution. It was not, however fair to draw a comparison between the eases of th e society and the amount of relief awarded ; should take the rots receipts, which were 2,6641., they would then gad that the expenditure did not amount to more thin 20 per cent. ;is fact, it was lees. He then referred to several ✓tatements in the pamphlet already alluded to, and pointed out several amnions in It that were incorrect. He then said that the public receiving such statements as those were likely to be deceived by them ; and it was therefore desirable that they should be clearly =instead by the public. IS the reforms,' thought the exposes of the society milk too t why did they not come forwent with some pat tioalar resolution, and point out what they considered super fluous, so;that some practical result could be obtained ? With respect to the question of residence it had been admitted that there ought to be some place for the society to carry on its bedtime, and that the secretary should reside on the premise.. In 1838 Mr. Wks moved that • secretary should be substituted for • clerk, sad la 1899 Mr. Blewitt was elected. In 1841, on the mottos of Mr. Dints, the gratuity to the secretary was increased by 401., making his salary 1601., and in 1852 it was inereaset to 2001., end from what he knew of the duties of that office he did not think the salary too much. He was quite prepared to justify the expenditure of the 5521. For the seventeen years prior to Mr. Blewitt's connexion with the association the ex penditure had been 10,0431., and the receipts 28,7111., while for the subsequent seventeen years the expenditure had been 13,0001„ and the income 39,0601., .bowleg an increase in the expenditure of 2,9571., and in the income of 10,3491. (Rem, hear.) In reference to the complaint that the council had not been admitted to the proceedings of the committee, he stated that the charter prevented them from allowing the council to be present at the committee, and that opinion was backed by the then Attorney-General. In conclusion, Mr. Bell read a list of names of high literary celebrities who supported the society, to show its position in the estimation of the public. The CHAIRMAN asked Mr. Dickens whether he had any objection to putting the vote of thanks before his own reso- Intion._ Mr. DiciaNs—Noris at all. The vote of thanks to the registrars, treeaurers, and audi tors was then carried unanimously. A show of hands wee siterwards taken on Mr. Dickens's resolution, which was negatived by • majority of 70 to 14. Mr. BURTON COOlfit was of opinion it would conduce to the interest of the society If be now moved • resolution for i n i t7 with regard to the expenses. Though the statements oßell were on the whole satisfactory, he thought there should be en investigation, and that Mr. Dickens and his Mends should take part in it. He would, therefore, move— " That a sub-committee be appointed to inquire, before the net , general meeting, whether it be possible to diminish the annual expenses of the eociet : and if so in what respects, without injury to its efficiency. Mr. Tooia thought there could be no objection to • re commendation to the committee to consider the matter, and report upon it to the next meeting. The CHAIRMAN t h ought that Mr. Cooper's views would be met by the appointment of a sub-committee of inquiry by the general committee. Mr. Coosa observed that • great deal would depend upon the palms appointed. (Laughter.) Mr. PotLoca regarded Mr. Cooper's proposal as an attempt to reverse the vats of confidence already agreed to, by peeing a vote of no coofidence. (" No no.") kir. C. Dice axe hoped Mr. Cooper would press his motion. Mr. M. Mtures opposed the motion, o bse rving that he had considered the question raised by it settled for twelve months. Mr. J. Foarransupported it, remarking that its adoption would in his opinion afford a good chance of the termination of these painful discumbu. He entreated the meeting not hastily or toconaiderately to reject this proposal. The motion, after being seconded, was submitted to a show of handa, whoa the sambas were 18 for, and 88 soling It. It was accordingly lost. The committee and officers for the year were then elected, after which the misting separated. REFORM MEETING 47 HAMLET, 11T.417011D- Mal.

INGULATION 07 TEE STIJL TO TRH .110111-01WOi- A numerous deputation, comprising represen tatives from several of the metropolitan parishes, and in chiding Mr. R. Banbury, M.P., Sir Ds L.liivans, M.P., Mr. D. Nicoll, M.P., Hon. P. Bye _Sir J.

The Rev. T. C. GAIUIIII3, who headed the stated that on the 15th at January a meeting ha= in Si. James's, to consider the immoral condition et the metropolis, as arising from the causes alluded to. At that meetbrs there ware present resentativee from alma of the principal metropolitan part.hes, viz., Chelsea, on, Saint Giles, Bloomsbury, Saint Martin's, , Saint Pancras, Paddington, !feint James's, Bt. ' e Hanover-square, and St. Clement's Dana, and, idter much discussion, resolutions were adopted ahnostenani ✓memiy, which resolutions the deputation was now denims of milmnittiss to the Seamary of State as suggestions. They related to street-walking, Umbels, end night-homes, and the importation of foreign prostitutes. These wen the maim evils to be dealt with. The feeling of the roost*: and the feeling of the public, he believed, was that though it wee perhaps impossible that the evil of prostitution shwld be entirely , yet that a stop might be put to the SONA• &loss public exhibition of it which took place, and the de terioration of property and public morality which resulted therefrom. iii. tart' WelroLi—You had better place the moo hakes Teton nre, sad I wtll cosaider theme. Mr. BIYZIAIII, the revery derk of 81. Isom* read the re ettl!ne. foams : That tie present condition of the metropolis in regard to sliest prostitution and the conduct of night-houses and that the Mate of the criminal law as to brothels call for the im mediate attention of the metropolitan vestries, with a view to the suggestion of restrictive or remedial measures. TThhaatt the attention of the government be urgently directed, by memorial or deputation, to the necessity of the more stringent administration of the Police Act se to the flagrant manifestation of prostitution in the public streets. " That the government be also urged to obtain the im provement of the criminal law e ff ecting the prosecution of brothels and disorderly homes, by permitting the evidence of eve householders of the vicinity and of the polies to be considered sufficient. That the government be urged to introduce a measure to place under efficient control the clam of houses known aa night-houeee,land that to that end it is advisable to license all house of refreshment or public use keeping open beyond reasonable h e oar% not included in the present category of lionised homs. " That the attention of the government be directed to the difficulty which attends giving the full effect to the 44th clause of the Police (2 and 3 N ic., c. 47) Act, and be urged to find a remedy for the name, either by executive or legis lative proper, by giving to the polioe a power of entry fate the preemies therein specified. " That it is the opinion of this meeting that it Is necessary that the government should give the local authorities to prosecute persons against whom evidence could be addoesd that they are the means of importing yaw thasiss kr the P° of prostitution." 27thein proceeded to read a statement of the existing law on the subject, embodying certain touggesUons for making it more effectual for its objects. Under the 6 Geo. IV., cap. 53, street-walkers might be prosecuted as idle and disorderly Mrand the police constables were anthorised to appro. them. By the 2 & 3 Vic., cap. 47, common prostitutes, or street-walkers, loitering in any public thoroughfare, to the annoyance of the inhabitants or pusses by, were made liable to a penalty of not more than 40s. or to be la &Wilt ; and another section authoded the ponslaWes , with out warrant, to apprehend idle and disorderly prams. &soh was the law ; but it was suggested that the In terpretation put upon it by the executive authorities rendered it in a great degree thoperative—aid that the laxity in carrying out the law had produced a state of things which was disgraceful to a civilind community. It was of the highest importance to make the law effectual that the magistrates who had to adjudicate should decide with uniformity. At present it was no uncommon thing for a constable to obtain a conviction before one maglstnata which under precisely the same circtunstanou bolus another would ensure the disclaimed of the case. This uncertainty led the constable often to over look cues which, if systematically brought up and would tend to the suppression of the evil. I I the P pr i vn a l e !i the police were not sufficient, they should be enl . afie .. ilr . ,l the great stumbling-block in the way of the which tended, perhaps, more than anything ea" "towards —- I allowing the Mamie to remain a deed letter—was, that to constitute the offence It must be proved to be an annoyance to the inhabitants or passers-by; and, generally speaking, people were very averse to appearing in the character of pro mulgators. It wu suggested that, to meet this difficulty, the more powers should be given to the police constables as in the cue of street mendicants. With regard to night-houses and place" of public entertainment, which were regulated by the statute 25 George 11., c. 36, the remedy provided by that act was so complicated and expensive as to render it frequently impracticable. Until 1839 gaming-houaes came tinder the same statute, but the law which then sed, giving summary powers of entry and conviction, had been attended with the most salutary effect • and it was sug gested that a similar enactment in referenoe'to brothels would be equally beneficial. Them some measure to check the im portation of foreign prostitutes, and for the prosecution of perms who traded in female prostitution, it was suggested, was absolutely necessary. Mr. Secretary Watrots—But you say nothing se to the mode of carrying this last suggestion into effect. Mr. Bunsan—No, our aligned= is that the govern ment should take the matter into their emanation, and obtain from parliament the mossitsry powers for checking the evil. With regard to eight-houses, coffee-houses, oyster shops, and wine rooms, It was suggested that all houses of public refreshment keeping open after • certain hour at night should be licensed—that they should all he required to close at a certain hour in the morning, and on Saturday nights at 12 o'clock, and that all such bonne should be placed under the control of tb• polio!. It was also recommended that the power of grantinilicenses for music and dancing should be treamlarred u from quarter 'Malta to the magistrates at petty seesioas, who would have more local knowledge, end that the parties holding such licensee should be bound to close their houses at a reeemiehle hour. Mr. Secretary Wairots—l shall be glad if you win for me a oopy of those suggestions, together with the resolutions. Yr. Bu : shun undertook to do so. The Rev. T. autism stated that in his parochial divi sion of Marylebons there was one street of 100 houses which 30 years ago was wholly inhabited by respectable penooa— lad, and email families of independent means, who for the most part keS their carriages, but which now contained no lees than 60 brothels. In many other streets in the same district the evil waa gaining ground in the rams pro and and all attempts to check it had been unavailing. pa rish we. making attempt' to put • atop to the nuisance, but the expense was enormous, each case they brought to con viction outing them upon the average 30i. The reduction in the value of property consequent upon this state of things was most alarming. Even in the magnificent street, Port land-place, which had been always the abode of some of the most wealth y sndaristocratic families in the land, some of the inhabitants bad declared lately that they could no longer live there because of the number of street prostitutes who resorted to it from the adjoining streets, and the exhibitions of vice and immorality which were thus forted upon the attention of their wives and families. of St. James's-street, urged upon the Home Secretary the propriety of enacting more summery powers of dealing with uniloeneed houses, where exciseable liquors were sold, of which there were in his (Mr. Beale.) perish a consider able number. With regard to the importation of foreign females fur the purposes of prostitution, he thought the deputation ought not to be called upon to express an opinion hastily as to the remedy which should be applied, but that they should be allowed to send up to the Right Hon. Secretary a fur ther and their views upon the subject in a letter. Ile should be glad to hear that the government contem plated some measure of legislation in reference to the licensing of night-houses. The late government, it was understood, had intended to introduce a bill to parliament on that sub ject. The law as to the prosecution of brothels was, he thought, a disgrace to the country. The perish authorities had no power to suppress a brothel without employing some of the filthy and dirty characters who frequented such places to prove that the house was used for immoral purposes. It was suggested that the evidanoe of four or live householder ' that the place was notoriously used as a brothel should be sufficient to canes a oanviction. With regard to the foreign prostitutes who frequented the Haymarket, and ether streets of the west-end, he believed the existing law was strong enough to del with that nuisance, which wee a &pool to the country—if the police would put it in force. The Hon. F. Betio believed the great root of all the other evils which had been referred to wee the night-houses, the prostitution carried on therein being, as he was informed, almost incredible in Its extent. While admitting that the open exhibition of prostitution by &nage prostitutes to the streets called for interference, he doubted whether thus was any actual molestation of passerby. He was about town as mach as most men, and at all hours, and could say from his own experience that the annoyance from open solicitation were touch lees than I. former times. The only senctyru s now of that kind was from the feeelgn prostitutes, who, if they thought the peer-by understood their language, would perhaps speak to bin; but, as compared with 30 year ago, the prostitutes of Louden, in conduct, in order, and in dress, bad much improved. The Rev. W. Beatles (of St. Jams's) Mined from the last speaker : he had been ultra spoken to sad annoyed ►y prostitutes, and la that part of fit. James's with which be was acquainted the open sabiblibta ofprusdhaas was going en In the streets era by daylight. This did not take pleas some years ago. In Interreed-abrest and Hing-street the surisnees al *woks prostitutes was stasseirs. Mr. D. Meru, mosidered that Mr. Hardy's bill of last yrr would hare afforded an efficiest remedy se regarded the ditki-hoagie and be !toped it would be re-introduced. The Ponce maraines7 wee, es it appeared to him, inadequate to meet the other evils epolor of. What was necessary was a local Wk.,— for lon] protection, and responsible to load authority. If such a foroe existed, it would be valuable in many respects, both as regarded the berth sad morality lof the dlstrio_t. At present the police might he hind (se wee the ere at the Argyll Rooms) to attend as doorkeepers at of hare!

He complained of the power given to the magistrates at quarter emirs when the brewing and distilling indoors prevailed to • great eater —to reverse the declaims of the °Leerat petty serious when licences were refused. IMILTON denied that the decides' of the trate, at quarter sessioes were in any way initheneed i7 brier( or distilling inductees.
