The first Annivertary of this Charity was celebrated at the Lon don Tavern yesterday. One hundred and twenty gentleuien.sat down to an excellent dinner at six o'clock. Mr. O'CorxEtt in the Chair. The Learned Gentleman, on his entrance to the dining-room, was warmly cheered. He was supported on the right by the Honour. able Edward 'Fein O'Conor lion, and James O'Gorman 31shon, Emirs. (Members of the Roman Catholic Deputatior), sat upon his left. Accommodation was provided at the end of the room opposite the Chair, for ladies, of whom there was a numerous and elegant Usemblage , Mr. O'Coxtsenv,ttin the removal of the cloth, rose. and in pro. posing the " Health of his Majesty," spoke to the following effect :' d Gentlemen , — As this is the first opportunity which has been presented to me of publicly proposing in the city of London the health of our present Sovereign, I utast it may . be permitted me to cast my eyes over the leading events of h is reign. It is not my intention to go into any lengthened historical detail of those events ; but it should not be forgotten, that when our present Sovereign, in the year 1810, assumed the reins of power, in consequence of the illness of his lamented father, England was engaged in a contest with a genius of the first order—a perilous contest, in which her opponent was master of a great portion a the Continent; and where his sway was not absolutely ate. islished., the influence of his name was sufficient to call nations to Ilia aid ,(hear, hear) ; his power might be said to extend over `taos-fourths of the civilized world. At that period disastrous prophecies were made. He would have been a bold man indeed who would have predicted that England would have attained to the lament height of prosperity . that she enjoys (Applause). Yet Xngland struck down her foe in the field of battle (Applause). She triumphen: and although the dominion of a greater part of Europe eney have been transferred to a worse sway, this .ountry continued aperient her institutions free, and to see her glory sustained, and bee power and her empire undiminished (Loud cheers). That is • an abstract of the present Monarch's reign. It is true that in the course of the present reign there has been a period of commercial struggle, and of agricultural distress.but that distress is `at an end, and we have seen the commercial interest of this Country arrived at a height of unexpected greatness, and concentrate itself tato the principal strength of the empire. (Applause.) One thing only remains—that is, to conciliate all his people under his wise retie- (Cheers.) That glory remains for him, and is worthy of him wlio has declared that " power was given to the Prince but for the benefit of the people." play he live to vindicate that principle • of which be is himself the author (applause), and as at all times it is right to pray for health and long life to our Sovereign, never (sod I tun sure I am quite loyal in the wish), have we had greater occasion to pray for it than at the present time. (Loud anti cond. hied cheers.) Gentlemen . I conclude by proposing „ the health of s .111ajesty George 1V.," and, added Mr. O'Connell emphatically, ,° Long life to him." (Much applause.) Four times four. Mr. O'Coratru. was desirous of proposing the health of another King—a King who proclaimed in his dominions the salu tary principle of universal toleration. (Hear, hear.) Toleration was a word to which he was rot partial; it pre.supposed a power of punishment in those by whom it was exercised, and of the ex clusion from a right of those against whom it was directed. (Hear, hear.) But it was due to the Alonarch whose health he was about a uopose, that lie promoted and encouraged an equalisation of civil 'tights throughout bile dominions. He begged to conclude by pro posing— The health of his Majesty George IV., King of flartover." (Moth applause.) Mr. O'CowXELL next rose to propose a toast, which he was 'satisfied would be received by the cordial approbation of the present, meeting. It was that of his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex. If. bad the good fortune to meet him in this country, and in no Individual did he discover a more kindly disposition towards the Roman Catholic population of this country than iu his royal breast.. 'lie (Mr. O'Connell) did not envy his high tank and exalted sac two so much as he admired the extensive information which he psonsed, and which would take the whole life of a man of leas I Obility to acquire. (Hear, hear.) He occupied, it was true, an exalted station in society, but he occupied it not for the purpose of .looking down upon others in inferior stations, but of shedding bloats upon then, and of contributing by every means in his to their ex igencies and their wants. (Applause.) He (Mr. 'tt lf er nell) admired less the rank he occupied, and the splendor that surrounded him, than he did the manly glow of hottest sen timent which proceeded from the heart rather than the head. Yet *bat issued from the heart of his Royal Highness, was marked by t the characteristics of a highly cultivated and enlightened under stasding. (Applause.) He gave a grace to aristocracy, a dignity as power, and ent!sted the affections of the people, by showing them ahatoear the throe was one on obese merit and chose virtue the people might reliy, and in which they might safely confide.' (.Ipplastee.) " The Duke of Sasscx"—Three times three. O'Cowirent next proposed, " The healths of Dr. Poynter end Dr. Bramston," two Roman Catholic Bishops of England. A Roman Catholic Ctergyman, whose name we could not learn, briefly returned thanks, and expressed, on the part of the Roman I Catitohe Bishops, the deep anxiety and interest which they took in every institution for the promotion of education. Tha.children were then introduced. They walked round the roma, and presented a most interesting spectacle. Mr.O'Coxwor.r.,, in proposing the next toast said, that it had Atiosionisy living voices to plead its favour of it to require his advo -atep..• if the electric effect created by the appearance of these 'cnattirea--if their helpless sad deeply interesting situation were nos calculated to excite the sympathy of the print Meeting, sad • ,easdarluee them to an act of charity, nothing that lie could say could .(witeren them into emotion. (Applause.) 'Die extension of charity :Pubes* children dais night would be a source of eternal benefit to these, and it would be the performance of an acceptable duty to PIWWIS and to God. (Applause.) He (Mr. O'Connell) was him. -llelf a father ; he had felt his heart cheered and ligincited up at the owlets 41( infant innocence. There was a notion amongst his coon .- rernan, his unenlightend countrymen as they were called, that teids.amile was placed ow the infant countenance by angels, to give intswilostial „joy to those who loved to d w ell u p on it.

Ile came to this country a stranger to the real character of the people of England. Upon a close inquiry, isb found that the people of England were opposed to the For six centuries Ireland had been subjected to .Englask, yet we enjoyed no advantages from the system it has punned: Owe inistisrtunes are not attributable to ourselves: the Irish peoples are brave—their valour has not only been undisputed, but at all• times readily admitted. The Irish are not incapable of the kindliest sentiments arid best feelings i there is no stoats fixed upon our brow; on the contrary, we are gay and animated. If, in short. the inisgovemmeat under which we suffer was indicted upon us from any deficiency on our part, we would have them to undergo the responsibility of the miseries which we sutler. But those miseries were fairly attributable to the policy of England 1 towards that country. Iceland ought to contribute a fair pro portion to the revenue of those conntries—she ought, on a fair esti mate of her resources and her population, to contribute 16,000/. to the 81,000,0001. which England contributes to the exigency of the state; but instead of tontributing that mite, Ireland is a tax upon this country of 4,000,0001. per 'Drum, a satisfactory proof that under the present system Ireland can never be the great and inde lerdent country which her resources entitle her to be. (Applause.) nstead of yielding 16,000,000 i. she is an actual burthen on this country t. 4,00/0.009/. Let those who object to the payment of the priesthood consider this topic, anti weigh with themselves whether it is better to lose to the exchequer 250,000:., the sum proposed to be paid to the priesthood, or to lose twenty millions, which, taking into account the loss of tour millions, and the probable gain of six teen millions to the exchequer. would be an actual saving to the • revenue of twenty millions. In seeking for our rights we did not; seek to disfranchise any class of persons, or to despoil them of their 1 rights. We simply ask for an act of justice towards us. (AN plause.) Equal rights constitute the claim we put forward, and + without the adjustment of which claim, Ireland cannot be con- , trolled. The day was not, he trusted, f distant, when that prin.' ciple would be recognised by the Le gi slature , and until it was recognised, he knew not how the peop of Ireland could be coo tented, and prosperous, and happy. ( Applause .) This country overflowed with capital% in Ireland that capital would be repaid by labour will greater certainty than in any part of the world ; but the adjustment of this great question must precede any large investiture of capital in Ireland. (Hear.) Petitions had been presented against u s y persons whom it was not natural to find associated together —mit red Prelates with Butterworth ale. (Hear, hear.) rte Learned Gentleman concluded a very eloquent and impressives .ch by hoping that in whateverargument the Roman Catholics were encountered, they might be met by can did discussion and by fair argument. Ile came here, and his miss yon was not altogether unsuccessful, as be had convinced some Protestants that the Roman Catholic in reality was not the Roman Catholic of their distempered imagination (applause), and that' the more they knew each other, they would be disposed to regard one another with reciprocal charity and Christian forbearance. (Applause.) Mr. O'Costoa Dox, on the health of .the Human Catholic De putation being given, returned thanks in eloquent and energetic language. Ile said be -came here, with others of his fellow.cotim , ' trymen, to endeavour to ad va , lce the measure of Roman Catholic Entaticipation, without a bids there could not be either happiness for Ireland, or security for the Empire. (Cheers.) Mr. O'Cows ELL next proposed “The Health of Mr. Brown low, who nobly sacrificed preconceived prejudices on the altar of his country." After a few other complimentary toasts, the company broke ' REPORT OF THE INCORPORATED SOCIETY FOR THE CONVERSION AND RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION AND IDECA TION OF THE NEGRO SLAVES IN THE BRITISIS WEST INDIA ISLANDS, FOR THE YFAR 1824. This Report details very fully the valnab:e labours of this Society (luring the last year. Nothing can, in our opinion, more effectually lead to the extinction of Slavery in the West Indies, than the introduction of that system of moral and religious instruction, which, by enlightening the minds of the' negroes, may make their manumission safe, thus taking away by degrees all pretext of danger in granting them their freedom, and leaving the cause of huma nity without any plausible opponents. In the mean time it must tend, in every way, to alleviate those evils which at tend a state of servitude. Religion, order, morality, and virtue, are the most desirable preparativcs for whatever change may take place in their condition, and for the full attainment of every benefit that can arise out of it. We give the following extracts from the speech delivered at a l'ublic Meeting, at the Court House, Cha rtes-7'ow ,by the Rev. D. G. DAVIES, M. A., Rector of St. Paul's, Charles-Town, and one of the Chaplains to the Incorporated Society, as presenting a concise view of its objects:— " If, Sir, I dill not apprehend that I should too far trespass on the thoe and patience of this Meeting, I would read the whole of a brief account of the Parent Institution, which has been published by the Society, and which I now hold in my hand ; but as lam deterred by this apprehension, I will-endeavour, in as few words as possible, to give to this Meeting an account of ihis Society. The Society took its rise from the bequest of the Hon. Robert Boyle, who direct.l by his will, that a considerable portion of his personal pmperty should be expended in the advancement or pro motion of the Christian Religion among the heathen. This object was for some time attempted to be promoted by applying the rents and profits of an estate purchased by the executors, and vested in the hands of trustees, to the education and Christian instruction of Indian children in Virginia. These proceedings were under the orders and sanction of the High Court of Chancery. But when the American Colonies ceased, from a political convulsion, to be a ! par: of the British dominions, it was imagined that the charity receive a new direction, and should be applied consistently the spirit of the testator's will, exclusively for the benefit of t',, , e benighted Heathens who live under the control of the Bri tian crown. Such was the decision of the High Court of Chancery, before which the cause was carried. And, accordingly, a Corpora tion for the Conversion and Religious Instruction and Education of the Negro Slaves in the British %Vest indict was erected and established by Royal Charter. The Society, thus established, having elected the Bishop of London for it. President and ap pointed other officers, has, from time to time, sent out chaplains and schoolmasters to the several Coln; _s in the West Indies for the promotion of its benevolent object:. Such, Sir, is the origin, such is the nature of the Incorporated Society. The objects are best described by the title which the Society takes, and to which I have already adverted." • • • • • " The benefits, Sir, which it is likely will result from such at tempts as the present, must be held to be the best argument fur undertaking them. The diffusion of the principles of Christianity has ever produced a moeidlaug effect. Historical evidence will abundantly and satisfactorily prove this assertion. It will do so here in the case of the Negro Slaves. What Christianity has done in all the instances in which it has been fairly tried, it is but reasonable to infer it will do in others. I would, however, in thls place, warn the too sanguine mind from expecting too much at too early • period. I would give this warning, lest disappointment might check a generous ardour. The progress of ni wal reformation is Indeed slow. It is slow in individuals. It is slow in communi ties. And it may be, perhaps, a wise dixpositiou of Providence that it should be so. lVe cannot then with reason expect to Bee any very marked improvements as the result of our labours in tour day. We may, Indeed, those of us who are graciously favoured with length of days, see the work gradually proceeding in its course. But in this, as in all other cases, we must be content gene- rowdy to labour for posterity. Men labour to improve the soil, that others may enjoy as more abundant productions. Men plant the tree, lustier the shade of which they are morally certain another shall sit. Men strive to accumulate wealth, which they are con vinced shall purchase the comforts, and accomrnadadme, and luxuries of life for others.

Lord Lowther's Lot started on Monday morning, and if Aline is a little lame or so, as they would have it, she will have all the best of it, the rain having rendered the roads, as well as the turf, in fine order. Attica also commenced her route on Monday morning, attended by dear Maitre des Chtuau.r. 'Buckle has been too ill to ride this Meeting, and it is reported that he does not intend to ride again. Le. him take off his spurs when he will, he will retire with honour to himself; repeatedly in his races has he received in the same breath, the curses and praises of those opposed to him—such as " d—n that fellow, I wish he was dead—what a jockey—what very superior riding; hc's hever beat till past the post." 'rake him all in all, we shall not look upon his like again. It was whispered before the Riddlesworth, that Rufus had beat Zinc at 71h. ; from Zinc's running in the Sweepstakes on Monday, we think the young one could have given her a little weight. The race for the plate today (Tuesday) speaks both for and against Rufus. In the first place Adclsza was beat in the Riddles worth by Rufus, and now runs second, but when she started for the Riddlesworth, it was reported she was not well ; this running must be looked at carefully. It came off this way—Camel won by a little more than a neck, and they now offer 1000 to IS against bin) for the Leger (he's very good, no doubt, by the odds); Adeliza second, and Pigmy third ; beat about a head by Adam. Now, Muleteer beat this Pigmy is a common canter, when he became an equal favourite with Rufus last October. But the worst of all is, that Surprise, who ran Rufus to a head for the Riddlesworth, is beat off 5 lengths, and out of all that Rufus has beaten, she is the only winner, as she just made shift to beat sister to Nectar, who was last for the 2000. We leave the public to judge which horse ought to be first favourite by public running, but think the horses are placed decidedly wrong in the betting.

TAYLOR. hen the Judges entered the Court this morning, the defendant, William Taylor, was brought up in custodi, to receive the judg. meat of the Court for a misdemeanour of a very aggravated nature. ➢lr. Justice BAYLEY asked whether the defaulant had anything to say in mitigation? Mr. Hanna Rica replied that he had not. The ATTORNEY -GENERAL then prayed the judgment of the Court. Mr. Justice BAYLEY, in delivering judgment, addressed the defendant in terms of severe reprehension of his immoral conduct, and observed, that although he had endeavoured to screen himself from the stigma which would fall upon him, under the pretext of a deranged intellect, yet there was no evidence to show that he had committed the offence of which he had been found guilty under the influence of such mental derangement. The judgment of the Court therefore was, that he should be confined in the gaol of Reading for the period of six months. THE LINO v. THE PARISH OF CHILLINOSTORD. This was an appeal from an order of Magistrates in Quarter Ses sions, removing a pauper from one pariah to another, on the ground that he had not gained a settlement in the former parish; and there was only one particular in which this case varied from those of parish settlements in general, and that wait, its giving rase to the question whether an unemancipated son could become a hired ser. vain to his father so as to acquire a settlement in that parish where his father was then residing, hut in which the father had not ob. mined any settlement? The Magistrates. by their order, adjudged that the son did not acquire a settlement by virtue of such hiring and service. A Rule Nisi having been obtained, calling on the parish of Chillingsford to show cause why this order should not be quashed, it was this day argued by Mr. MAIRTATT and Mr. DOVER. on the part of the respondent pariah, and in support of the order, that although an emancipated child (that is, a child who had obtained a settlement in some other parish, either by hiring and service, or by marriage), might Yemen to his father and enter into a contract with him, by virtue of which he might acquire a settlement in the parish where his father was then living, yet a child who was unentanci. paled could not make any such contract. There was no case to be found in which a pauper could confer a r'cht of settlement on his unemancipated children by such a species contract. It was sub mitted that the unemancipated children bore the same relation to the father as existed between the husband and wife. The child was by law entitled to reside in his father's family , to b e p ro p erl y clothed and educated by him, and therefore the rule of law which said that an infant's contract, provided it be for hbenefir, was not void, but only voidable, did not apply in thar awe, inasmuch as the infant did not benefit by any such 'contract with his parent, who was already bound by the law to supply hint with all that wan stipulated for in the contract without any such contract being made; and the parent, in r'turn, was entitled airy to the services of his child without any specific contract between , them to that effect. Besides, where would the Court fix a period when the child should be considered old enough to enter into such a contract ? Would it be at twelve years or at aeren ? This seem ed to be ono difficulty which would arise out of the decision, that an nueinancipated child might make such a contract. It would also lead to litigation between father and ton, if contracts of this kind were to be allowed, the right of action to enforce them being neces sarily incident to the connect, and how could all this l reconciled with the natural dominion which the parent was admitted to pos sess over the child ? Again, as there already existed a right on the part of the son to instruction and maintenance from the father, and a right on the part of the father to the services of the ann, how could any contract between these parties strengthen or enlarge those reciprocal rights ? The lesser contract or obligation must merge in the greater. The object of the statute t.,f Elizabeth was to prevent the father from communicating a settlement ou the children. But the consequence of such contracts, if deemed valid, would be, that if a man haring children was thereby p r evented gaining a settle ment, yet he might, by this species of fraudulent, or at least colour able contract, give a settlement to all his children. Now the statute sought to prevent this. The law certainly allowed a child to enter Into a contract with a stranger, by which he might gain a settle ment, but in such cases the consent of the father was presumed, for it were not, the father inight at any time put an end to that con tract. Rut that was quite distinguishable from the father making such a contract himself with his son. The fact of the child's being emancipated or not was only important in as far as it regarded parish settlements. Suppose the father to be removed to his own parish, the son who had once obtained a settlement elsewhere, al. though then living with the father, could not be removed with him, and if so then he might make a contract with his father as well as with a stranger, so as to gain him a settlement. A very great die. tinction, therefore, occurred between whether the child was eman cipated or not. For the purposes of settlement it was contended contracts were void, and that the order was therefore good. Mr. NOLAN, on the other aide, contended, that there was no distinction between a contract of this kind made by an emancipated and an unemancipated child, and that all the ill consequences which would ensue from the latter were equally likely to result from the former ease. It was well known that children were often appren ticed to their parents, and sorely it could not be contended that these apprenticeships were void ? He submitted that the son had in the present CST' obtained a settlement by the hiring and service with the father, and that the order ought therefore to be quashed. The next case in the paper being also a settlement case, in which a similar question arose, the Court ordered it to be argued before they should decide on the present one. THE RING V. TIM PARISH Or WINSLOW. Mr. SCAR LETT appeared for the respondents, and argued at some length in support of the positien, that a contract between an unemancipated child and the father was not valid, and therefore could not confer a settlement. The Corer would not hear Counsel on the other side, but pro. seeded to give their judgment. The LORD Cater JUSTICE—I am of opinion, that in each of these awes the pauper gained a settlement by the hiring with the father. It is conceded, that if the child were emancipated he might gain a settlement by . a hiring with his father. It has also been conceded, that emancipation does not give the child any new power to contract. A contract made by an infant is not ab. solutely void, but only voidable by the infant. If an infant may, with the permission of his father, enter into a contract with a stranger, why may he not do so with his own father? There being then nothing in the ISW which declares a contract of this nature made with the father as void, can we find any thing in the law of settlements that shall make it so? It certainly will, as said by Counsel, enable the father to gain a settlement for his sons, where he himself has not a settlement. But this is not the only case where such may happen. The n it has been said, that this may lead to many litigations in the Courts of Quarter Stations ; but such contracts being held valid, may be good in some eases, although not so in others. Whenever any such case shall arise, it will be the duty of the Court to lock narrowly to the cause, and see , whether there was really and truly a hiring and service, or only a colouring, but that objection will not apply to either of the cases before the Court. In the first case the son came into the place of another servant--that was clearly a proof that his services were re quired; and in the latter case it was equally clear that the service was bona jfde. For these reasons I think a good settlement was gained in each case, and that the orders must therefore be quashed. Mr. Justice BATLEY said this was the than time the question had come before the Court as to whether an unemancipated child might enter into a contract with the father. Ile was of opinion he might. Such a contract would produce new rights ; it would give the fa- ther a grtater control over the son, which might be beneficial to the son. On the other band, the father would contract to give his son wages, which would be more than equivalent to the support which he was already, by law, bound to provide for him. It ap peared to him that there was nothing in the relation of tither and son to prevent such a contract, and he therefore thought that the orders of Sessions must be quashed. Rule made absolute for quashing the orders in both cases. MANSLAUGHTER. vast ICING V. JAMES MrTCITELL AND WM. ZINO. Mr. Svoegs - moved that these defendants might be brought up, and admitted hi bail on a charge of manslaughter. The Coral' consented, and the defendants were accordingly brought up in the custody of the Gaoler of Norwich. The depositions taken before the Coroner were then read, by which it appeared that several young men, one of whom was the deceased, and whose name was Jonathan Wells, were met in the plantations of Mr. Mitchell the defendant, by himse/f, and King his gamekeeper, who questioned them where they were going. The answer was that they were biednesting. Mr. Mitchell then got off his horse, and, as one of the deponents swore, struck the deceased, h a e y n ai t i h d e ran into a w r as iver a f , e a w nd rards was in foli t ozetl watir by , th il e e upon which the other defendant collared the deceased. Wells, defendants. hleier got away cried out that he could not swim, but no assieuems was rembused him, and he was drowned.
