'Sir WIC *DR CRESPItiIIY, in secondiag this mo tion, pronounced ass eloquent panegyric on the value of this benevolent lostitution, sod on the artbices rendered to society by its founder, Mr. Henri. He trusted that the Meeting would ren der this a glorious day for the lustitutiosi. by con ferring increased stability upon it by their sub scriptions. The motion was then unanimously carried. The Rev. Mr. ItuELL rose to propose • vote of thanks to his Royal Highness the Duke of Kent, the Patron of the Institution. The presence of his Royal Highness, he regretted, imposed silence upon him on certain points in which he should have wished to indulge his feelings. But the great oh ject of the Institution, which had insured for its friends the support of his Royal Highness, was a theme on which it was impossible he could he silent. and yet one to which there was nothing lie could say could do adequate justice. Should mis fortune occur in the higher ranks, relatives or con. oiexions generally afforded ass asylum to the suf ferer ; hut where could these thrown from the mid dle classes seek shelter? Were they to be driven to the poor-Rowe ? Could any person in that crowded Meeting hold up a hand for sending into the association of such a place the widow or daugh ter of • merchant, of a clergyman, • physreittit, or an officer who had discharged his duty to his coun try ? He was convinced no hood would be held up for such a purpose. He concluded by congratu lating the Meeting ou the presence of their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Kent, and osi having such illustrious co-operation in so bene volent • cause. Mr. Aar seconded the Motion of Thanks to the Duke of Kent, and in an eloquent appeal to the feelings of the Meeting. enlarged on the power ful claim which this Institution had upon the pub. lie attention and support. lie applied to Mr. Herr& Mr. Burke's beautiful eologium on the la bours of the philanthropic Howard, and entreated that a Society formed like this, for the support of so extensive • system of benevolence, should receive that support which it deserved from an enlightened isaaple.—(Applause.) -The Motion was carried unanimously. Tnoanntu. then rose, to propose the thanks ettbe Meeting to their Royal Highnesses the Duke Nod Duchess of Kent. These Illustrious Pit.- gouges, lie said, had spread the bright example of shedding their affluence over the poor and the des titute, and had supported the necessity of relieving those whose minds were unsullied, and whose prin ciples were unperverted. The bounty of this Insti tution, it should be remembered, was not gavels as an incitement to meritorious conduct, hut as a reward for toast worth and virtue. and as a cheering solace for its cultivation and continuance. Their bounty was given as the payment of a d. ht which it was a pride and pleasure to return. An allusion had been made to the loss of their late Illustrious Patroness, the Princess Charlotte—a name purlieu lady dear to them as the early Patroness of their institution. and as the bright example of the prac tice of every virtue that could do honour to her sex molted lustre on her rank. She was indeed the pride of her august family, the boast of her country, and the glory of her sex.—(Loved and costumed up plawse.)—lt was truly gratifying to the Institution to have procured so worthy a successor for such a beloved Lady in the sister of the Prince who had .hewn himself, by his conduct in this country, as worthy of being the husband of the possessor of so much worth.—(Great applause.) This Motion was seconded, and carried by accla mation. _ _ _ His Royal Highness the Duke of KENT returned thanks for himself and the Duchess, and repeited .his anxiety that the Meeting would give a practical prod in their subscriptions this day, of the ►nterrst they felt in the prosperity of the National Benevo lent Institution. The Royal Party then withdrew amid loud ■p. plause. Sir WK. DE CILEIPIGNY afterward• took the Chair, for the purpose of disposing of some business of form. Mr. BARNWELL, in an eloquent speech, pro posed the 'Thanks of the Meeting to the Commit ters of the Institunon. The Motion war unanimously carried. The company diets separated.

He was resolved ne►er again to make an order until the Defendant was present; but now the order having already been made, and the reward paid by the overseers could only he recovered by a distress warrant according to the Art. The Defendants, therefore, had no tidier alternative than to pay the claim opus them. The use excited a great deal of iaterest, it being under stood that the Magistrates bad no power to make au order upon the single testimony of a fireman. wTTOX•QARDEW. BURGLARIES.

The same day he repaired with some of his companions to the river Severn, for the purpose of bathing therein, the unfortunate youth went its a deep part of the river, and sunk to rise•uu more. The body was not found till the folloniag day. DREADFUL ACCIDENT. On Friday, the 14th instant, an inquest was taken at Long Bennington, i■ Ibis county, before George White, Gent. Co rmier, on view of the body of Thomas Risnington (son of Mr. Richard Rimington), a boy about fourteen years of age, who was unfortunately shut with his own gun. The circum stances attending this enhappy catastrophe, as detailed by the evidence adduced before the Jury, were es follow :—On Wednesday morning, about eight o'clock, the deceased was 'ruing into a field to tend birds with a new gun, which, by his savings be had lately purchased—when meeting, in Cut. tam-lane, with an acquaintance, John Lee, a buy about twelve years of age, who was riding on an ass behind an. oiler boy, he asked him if he would shoot, and gave the gun into his hands; upon which, Ur, who was still sitting upon the ass, after looking Si the gun, pointed it down towards the ground, and tried if it would strike fire, when it imme diately went off, and the contents passed through the leg of the deceased, which it shattered to pieces. The poor boy, after darting forward a few yards, fell down, and the other boys, being frightened, went lame. Mr. Whitaker, Of Ben nington, ou returuing home from shepherding, saw the de. ceased lying on the road, and on taking hold of his foot, be found the kg was broken ■nd bleeding fast, upon which, with a lisnolkerchicc lie bound it up, in hope of stopping the bleeding. The boy being couveyed home, every medical amostaace was inonediatety procured, sod amputation, which was conlidered absolutely necessary, from Ike nature of the wound, was performed; but from the violent and in stantaoeuus shock which the whole frame had experienced, the pour boy lingered until about five in the afternoon of the same Any, and then expired. It appearing that there was no intentina whatever of injuring the deceased by firing the gun off, but that it was inadvertently done, the Jury, without hesitation, pronounced a verdict of Accidente! Death. This is another instance of the fatal effects of trusting boys with guns, and it is hoped, will operate us caution. 'IRELA DUBLIN. AUGUST 25. 'PUBLIC II EALTH. A Meeting cif the PhySiCiilliß of Dublin having been cuu►i lied by public advertisement, on Thurs. day last, fur the purpose of receiving a - Report from It Special t7nu►mittee of their Body, appointed in M.n•eh .‘ to search the fatrither progress of the Epi donic," we have been anxious to receive an ac. count of the proceedings which took place ou the occasiou. As vet, however, we have been able only to learn, that at ibis Nieetiog (which was not very numerously attended) u Report was presented, giving a 1114 iii' view of the 'progress and extent of the Epitle . and proclaiming the total failure of the measures hitherto adopted for its suppression. IVe have also heard, that the Mertittg did, after some discussion, resolve, that the Report, together with the documents to which it refers, should be published ; but why they have not yet been torn. inuaicated to the Public Papers, we know nut. If the Report at all merits the character that has been given of it, its importance obviously demands Maine. dime publicity. It has been whispered that the Report exhibits such au alarming• view of the extent and 'progress of the Epidemic, that ensue of the Profession were reluctant, without legal (drive, to give publicity to the Document ; but the luiijurity dicitled, we understand, fur publication. tinder a conviction that the statements contained in the Re port were not libellous, and that the public welfare reqvired that such truths should not be concealed.

In addition to the fever, which has lost nothing in extent, though it may have lost In malignancy, it his pleased i'►ovidence to alio:, us within these few days to be visited with another serious and painful complaint, the dysentery, or bloody flux.

Various proximate causes have been ss•igned fur its extensive inttoduct a ; the most obvious is the heat and drought of the twasuil.—( Was. Mi►ror). LIMERICK, AUGUST 21. That linen of every kind must be much wanted at the hospitals, will appear very obvious, when we state, that they contain this day 251 fever patients, the greatest number ever in the institution at any one time, though 73 were discharged cured from it within the week. It is very painful thus to perceive that fever is rapidly increasing, and we regret to riy, that it has reached that very valuable Insti tution, the House of Industry, which had hitherto, in a great degree, escaped it ; there being this day 26 persons in active fever.—(Limerick Chronicle.)
