Yesterday the first Anniversary Meeting of the Southwark Auxiliary School Society was held at the Royal Free School, Borough-rued. At an early hour in the day the room, though of considerable rise, was entirel►• crowded, chiefly by Ladies 14 the first respectability, whose presence gave a cordial pledge of their valuable co-operation in prom an% the interests of this laudable Insti tution. At ten o'clock Lord Viscount A LTDORP (the President of the Society) entered the room. untended by a number _ of Gent Milieu who have taken an active mid successful interest is the diffusion of general education. The Noble Lord, in biking the Chair, informed the Meeting that he did so only in the absence of the Illustrious Duke who was to houour the Meeting that day with his pre. some. mot who might be shortly expected. It would forward the business of the day to have the Report of the Society read, which lie requested Mr. Harper would proceed to do. The Rev. T.. Houma, in compliance with the Requisition from the Chair, reed the Report, which detailed Os a clear sad peropicuoss manner the im nseuse advantages derived by tacitly frees the general educatiou of the lower classes, and pointed out the superior *demonises for this purpose which the British cud Foreign School Society possessed, as it embraced persons of all religions persuasions. The Report gave • flattering picture of the pro. great of the Southwark Auxiliary Society, to which it invited the support of all classes in the Borough. The Rev. Dr. COLLYER rose, to move the first Resolution—/jar Resolwilo s ss see Adeertisereenti— that the Report just reed be adopted by the Meet ing. The Rev. Gentleman enforced •in eloqueut terms the great value of unit moral and religious education whit It thieve schools diffuse throughout so large a portion of the lower classes of society. The tisue had been when the education of the lower classics was looked upon with a different eye from that which now 'nuked it; it was, however, no longer • spiestiou that educations should be uni versally diffused; knowledge bad gone forth, and like the bull could toot be checked in its glorious progress by human hands. The only remaining consideration was 110/1 it could be diffused and guided fur the best happiness of mankind ; in this view, from the structure of the British and Foreign Schools, they were entitled to pre.einineut pstrun. age and support.—( Hear.) The Rev. ROWLAND Hue came forward to second the first Resolution. The Rev. Gentleman repeated the observation he hoed made at a former Meeting, in reply to an observation which had fallen from his Royal Highness the Duke of Sus. sex. The illustrious Duke had paid that these School Societies were entitled to the support of fiersosis of every persuasion and opinion, for they had halting whatever in them political. From this expression he at the time entirely dissented, and had stated to his Royal Highness, that on the contrary, lie thought theta highly political ; for what could be more political fur a Government that waisted to make its subjects peaceable and loyal men, than first to give the poor of every per suasion that moral and religious education which these Societies gave to every age and every sect, and by suds means to guard them ageism' the deer)). hosts of evil and designing men ?—(Apploate.)— Would a people rebel against a Government that put the Holy Scriptures into their hands; and taught them to reed the divine word, and to coin este tw e n ty an d p eace ?-140, they would not, end they would be the first to stand out in support of that Goveromeist ; and sure lie was, that when this system was loaves-sally disseminated, instead of Dow mud then ereiug a mob ready to commit vio. lessee egoism t h e State, Prelims would timid a mob at every corner ready to be led out fur its defence. —(Applease.)—The Rev. Gentlemsai then made an impressive appeal to the fair pint of his audit o rs, who needed no stimulus to urge them to acts of beneficence and liumisisity its behalf of the female child ren iii the School ; pie particularly pointed out the service which the Ladies could do the lostitu tioo by teaching the tender children of their sex tbe early use cif that valuable little machine—the needle. He enforced in • striking masiner the great mural advinitiitges, both to society and the individual, which follow the habit of early nolustey—aisil slJus trated his observations, by reluisidiug his hearers • of the different way in which they felt in find. hug they had to deal with en busiest and lodes , tramp servant, or oise souk iu sloth and tier. The progress of education was must flattering from the efforts of this Society, said its , every day skewed thst the motteept they child of beggar how to reedited work, from that moment the individual ceased to live by idlenesti and crime. The moment, therefore, that they educated Ilse poor, they paved the way to the speedy abolition of that siumonce, begging.---(Applasse.)...The Rev. Gentleman paid a just complionnot to the vetierable King, slid to the Dukes of Kent and Sussex, for the interest they had eliewii to these establishments, and said, that as t h e work of education went on, a complete reformation would take place in the habits end morals of the lower chitties. " We must go on with the great work," said the Rev. t)ieist'', " until we root out pauperism, tag, rag, and bob tail."--( Loud laNghter./ Mr. CHARLES BARCLAY, M.P. rose to move the fecund Resolution, and as it eibbraced is euitalle tribute to their Royal Nighttime" the Dukes of Kent and Suesex.he could not fur that reason alone regret the momentary absence, of the latter, as his presence would render it impassible to siwuk with that plainness usi the .abject of his merits winch their feature end extent deniauifeil.—(The Honour able Gentleman had proceeded thus far when the arrival of his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex was announced, and the Royal Duke took the Chair amid greet applause.) Mr. BancLay resumed, and alluded to an ex pression just used by the Rev. Divine (Rev. R. Hill), to which he could aim altogether swept. H a Reverend Friend had said, that isi a short time, when universal education hid covered the land, the children of beggars would soon be no longer found. His Rev. Friend should•uot have said " soon," for the instant these children received the seeds of edu cation, that instant they would cease to hey,•.—(dp pluese.)—He then eulogised the philanthropy of his Royal Highness the Duke of Kent, and hoped the Royal Duke would soon be swain among them, side by side with their present illustrious Chairmen, pleading the cause of universal education' and chit rity.—(Applasue.) Mr. WILLIAMS seconded this Resolution, and concurred in every thin , . that had been sisirl in praise of this valuable Cstitution. The value of general education teas like the air we breathe, un boussded, and wheiever it was diffused must cheer with health and comfort those who tasted its bless ings. He declared his cordial wishes for the pro- motion of the interests of the British and Foreign School Societies, stud highly approved of there auxiliary branches to give local effect to the system of education.—(App/ause.) The Rermt. CHARIMAN rose to return thanks, for himself and his illustrious Brother, for the honour the Meeting had joist done them. The Resolution had only done them justice in giving credit to the interest they uniformly felt to promote the principle of universal education. And lie land the satisfaction to state, that perhaps before witty days had'pemed they might spin see his illustrious Brother presiding at a Meeting like this.—(Great epplause.):-.The Royal Chairman rheas stated that he had intended a Meeting on the previous; day, which lard en object similar to the present. At that Meeting allusion lied been snide to the efficacy of education in preventing victims from being en trapped into that species of crime expreiely con nected with a term which had unfortimately of late crept into our language, under the title of " blood tttttt ey." There would be nu vic t i ttt for the aban doned plotters who sought this detestable reward. if' the poor were early taught to reed, and lead the moral life which they must pursue, if they attended to the precepts of that book put into their hands sit these schools.—(Applasese.)-.-ln every view, whe ther moral, religious, or political, sue:ety was deeply interested in supportisig these institutions, and he woald ever be fousid at his post advocating their claims and euforciiig their necessity.—(4lp phase.) The Rev. J. TOWNSEND proposed the third Re solution, and advocated, in 1111 eloquent manner, the cause of education. He justly said. that the Parent Institution of these School Societies had the merit of stimulating into action the authors of the Establishments called the National Schools, which would Heller have had existed were it nut fur the beg' • gof Joseph Lineastrr.—(llear, hear.)-- So that they might take credit to themselves for having celled forth the Irbours of Archdeacon Thomas, and the other respectable characters alto had stepped forward to diffuse estimation ou the principles of the Established Church. Between that system which eir.:s called the Natiolial and this, there could be leo other rivalry than that of seeing which could do most to diffuse education in every class of the community. The Rev. Gentleman ad verted to the cheapness of the Ins-sent play, and the facility it afforded of making education uni versal, which could nut be done in former times, from the dearness.of instruction, arid other impecli talents, now happily removed. The Rev. Dr. SCHWABE 'seconded this Resolu tion, and gave the Meeting is gratifying account of the progress of education on this system in Isis 1111. tive country, Germany, and the rapist strides it was making over the population of other parts of the Continent. Lord ALTMOIRP, in returning thanks for him self and the Vice-Presidents, assured the Meeting of his dordial and unceasing support to this foot tutiou. because its principle was univerwsl, and it extended the benefits of education to toll chigoes at the community & without any distinction or disqua ti cat io is. —(Appio use.) Mr. FAVILE. (of the Common Council) pro posed the fourth Resolution, and referred to ihe early struggles of the Society, when though want of funds it tottered to its here, and whets he had &ergs the greatest mod best supporters of it tremble for its fate. Often had lie filet in Comtnittee iss the little place where they used to meet before these premises warm erected, those great ■nd lamented characters, the late Mr. Whitbread sod Mr. Joseph Fox, who were liktiOlt ill to slate of despair et the little prospect the Institution then held nut of orercoiniog its difficulties. If these great end Mr. W A L LEN (of the Society of Friends), in proposing the fifth Resolution, lamented thot the task devolved upon him to appear in public on this occasion, and for the niotneeit abandon that privacy in whirl, he always wished to remain while performing the duties that attitehrel to lain in fur therance of the objects of this leisritiitioo. Ile was highly gratified at seeing this Meeting so ex cellently attended. It was the first example of the anniversary of the Auxiliary Society, which was the first established to aid • the great object of the Parent institution.
