FOUNDED IT PETER HEM, ESQ. • 1, Yesterday a meeting of the friends of this Renew volent and highly useful Institution took place at Freemasons' Hall. • The great room was at an rawly hour crowded 19 excess, principally by ladies of distinctiuu. Several foreigners of rank were also present. At titres o'clock his Royal Highness the Dukd of KeSi', the patron of the Institution, entered the room, leading in her Royal Highness the Duetrees; and attended by the principal friends who assn. ciated with Henri in this benevolent eitablishment. The Royal Party were received with thateninti. shun. to which their p a t ronage and condescension 50 eminently entitled theui.. The Duchess of Kent looked remarkably well, and seemed extremely pleased at the enthusiastic reception the received from the Meeting. She appeared to be highly pleased at the architectural structure of the Flail, and in the course of the chi . ) , seemed occasionally to examine, with great attention, the proteana of the Royal Family sod others, which are pieced on the walls. • His Royal Highness the Duke of KEPI?, on isk lug the Chair, apologited to the Meeting for having delayed them until so late an Imui in the day, and stated that he had been detained at a public Meet: jog at the 'other side of London, from whirli he returned pith as much speed as he could expect through the streets of the iVlstropolii. Hr wee extremely sorry fur, the delay that hail occurred, and could swine the Meeting that the tummies* %Thiel, he was about to introduce should be diiiict•tdl of in such a manner as still to admit the dtpeiture of the, company , witbin a reasonable time. %Voila reference to the National Benevolent lostitution; which it was doubtless their object to promote, they were aware that it was found e d i n 1811, einl that it arose iu consequence of the great distresses to which the middle clasies abtiety were at that period exposed. It was impossible that a n y f e eling d could overlook th e distresses of the lower Chase.. but there were olio Other closer., whose situation, wh en v i s i te d by nisseserited was truly diette s sin g , an d f u ll or the tenderest sympathy.

It was now dime years since he presided at me annivereary of dna Isistitution. There Were then on their benevolent list sixteen cases, and he at that time :noted his Con fident anticipation. that, when he Caine among them nett. lie would find their funds supporting at least sixty objects. Thin anticipation he could not cosigritulate the Meeting on their lostitution having realised, as the number of persons 000 re ceiving their bounty did not exceed forty-two. Ile hoped and trusted, however, that by die benefit,. knee of this crowded Meeting, and mule partici'. lady by that of the interesting assemblage of ladies lie had the pleasure of now treeing, their Imo& would receive that augmentation which would en able the Society to extend its bounty to the numerous objects that were really lit to china it. The Institution had hitherto a two-fold object ire view —first, to administer to worthy objects a per. (111111t0I annual bounty; and secondly, to give luau; in cases where else ruin of the sufferer was impend. ing, and by which the little means of a family may be retrieved and preserved. This second objet t was undoubtedly meritorious, but if the limited nature of their menus would not allow of their pursuing both objects with efficacy, he should pre. ter to see die first, for the present, solely occupy ing their attention, and let the am cum! stand over until, by the augmentation of their means, they could embrace it with a certainty of effect. The Meeting knew, that the late Patroness of the lii. emotion was the beloved and lamented Princes Charlotte of Saxe Coburg. Since the arrival o f the Duchess of Kent, she had been solicited to fill the office held by the departed object of the cow.- try's tenderest regard, and the Duchess had coo. stilted to accept it.—(Great applause./—He had to inform the Meeting, that. while in this country. at present she would attend to its interests; and, in her temporary absence, would rely on the oilier ladies associated with her for giving it efficient attesition. When she became a permanent resident in England, it should have her full attention.— (Applerace.)—The presence of the Duchese here this day was a proof of the interest she felt in the Institution, for had she consulted her health it might have been necessary for her to renmaiu at home; but she disregarded this consideration, to convince the Meeting of the deep interest she felt in their object.—Nreot applause./—His Hoye' Higliiirss then alluded to the Muds of the Lionel. twit, which. he was convinced, were well managed, and condemned an anonymous letter on this sub. jell which had been transmitted to him yesterday. The individual (whoever lie or she may tw), per hip% felt the course pursued a right our; but ha (the Duke) could not seat:wilily &preemie it. If there was any charge 'pion the managenitut of the Inside, let it be openly and directly made, and not through the medium of anonymous accusation. —/Great applasse.)—His Royal Highness then called on the Rev. Charles Mit:artily to read the, Report._ The Rev. Gentlemen then read the Report. which was very voluminous. It stated numerous instances es proofs of theessentiai benefits conferied by the Institution, and also the regulations by which it is governed. Mr. 11 ERV a, in • most eloquent speech. eulogised the bent tits arising from the Institution. Mr. ROBERT M*uoYAY , iu moving that this Report he received, obsersed s that the lii-titution was of a nature calculated to excite the- euthusimat of every well-regulated mind, and to cheer with gladness every good maser heart.
