DRURY-LANE THEATRICAL FUND DINNER. was row ready and anxious to repeat in the fullest and most nequa. idled term, of approbati o n. (Ilear, hear.) Mr. KEAN, an Treasurer of the fond. then proceeded to read the several donations. Amongst the list of names we noticed that of his Majesty, 1051 ; the Ihikoof York ros guineas ; Mn.s Coates, r. 21.

This announce.. most was received latish great applause, as was also the name of an American gentleman, whose name we multi not learn, and who contributed 201. to the fund. We also understood the Tremmrer to announce at the head of the hat • legacy of 3001. bequeathed to the charity by Mrs. Reid. The Ituke of ]'oat nest gave, " Success to the American Stage." ( A pplause.) 31r. Percy, in returning thanks, said that the character of the American stage was so rapidly rising in estimation, as would en title its members shanty to take their place amorigra the artist, ..f the day. (Hear.) Its present eminence and success were mainly attributable to the employment of thane who were most dentin.

'lentils4 the purposes of instruction and amusement which were thereby attained, a more important object was effected, namely, that hy the coin. mon admiration of the same talent, that friendship and attachment would he cemented between England and America, which it was the interest of the two countries to cherish and maintain. (Immense clicerins.) The Duke of II oar next gave— " The memory of Mr Garrick." " The memory of Mr. Kimble." The Ihske of Yowl,: begged to propose the health of a Lady, whose talent had been long the ornament of the stage, and who, in her department of dramatic talent, was not inferior to either of the names he had just isientioned--- " Mn. Sirldonn. Yesterday a more numerous and brilliant assemblage than we have whitewall on any former anniversary, met together at the ErVC1711.10•11 . Tavern, to commemorate this festival. At a few minutes after six o'clock the Duke of York was introduced by the stewards. His Royal Highness was suppated on his right by the I Marquis of Cliffiniondeley, and on his left by Mr. c a ked', 31. p., Lord Shrewsbury and several Members of both Houses of Puha ment were present. The grand hall of the Frectitiouns"tavern wan superbly titled up fur the occasion. Immediately Over the chair was placed a very correct likeness of his Majesty, in tianspa wog • on either side was placed a bust of Shalom:are and of Gawick, on pedestals. This was surmounted by an admirable re prowsitatimi, in transparency, of Sir J. Reynolds's cekbrated picture of the 'tragic and Comic Muse contendicg for their respec tive claims to the genius of thwack. the founder of the institution. The number present must have considerably exceeded three hun dred. Indeed we do not remember on any former occasion to have seen so thronged an attendance at the celebration of any festival at the FreCIIIA4OIIII4 . Tavern. Opposite the picture of Ins Majesty was placed • likeness, though not an equally correct one, of his Royal Highness the Duke in York. 'the galleries, which band very ample accommodation, were thronged with an assemblage of very beautiful women, amongst whom we recognised sonae of the popular actresses of Drury-lene, Lod who " glanced light from their eyes," which shod nut the least pleasing irradiation over the gay festivities of the night. The din ner was send up in the usual style of excellence of the Free masons' Tavern, and every circumstance connected with the feed eity contributed to promote its interests and popularity. On the removal of the cloth, the musical gentlemen. Messrs. linen, T. (Ooke, Fiowilliam, Broadhurst, Re. who attended in strong mutat on the sealskin, sang New N. M. positoe, after which, The Duke of Volta gave " The King"—Four times four. " The Army"—Song--O lee. " The Navy"—" Rule Britannia." The Cuter Banos of Scotland next rose to propose a toast. which be was sure would be received with the unmet satisfaction by any chile of his Majesty's subjects, and he was satiafied by none awn than by the company at present assembled, on whom his Royal Highness had such strong and peculiar claims of gratitude. Hear.) From those who were the einem of the bounty of this Institution, his Royal ilighness bed a daily and an hourly blessing for the pa tronage which he extended towards it. Nor was it this Institution alone that enjoyed the advantages of his Royal Highness's pa erosive: it wail extended, he might soy, to almost all the ineti whose and charitable establiahments of the metropolis. (Hear.) fits Royal highness had a heart to fed, end a hand open as day to relieve the wants of the destitute. He was aware nothing which he could add would be available no increase the respect which the present company entertained towards him, or to augment the en. ,thouutic feeling wlth which they were disposed to toast his health. He would conclude by proposing his Royal Highness the Duke of York. " The Duke of York."—(Three times three.) This toast was received with the liveliest mainfestations of respect anti enthusiasm. The bake of Vona, in returning thanks, said that he felt great eatisfactioo at meeting so numerous s. d brilliant an assemblage as be had now the please', of seeing before him. It was true that this 'isnot the first tune that he had had an opportunity of meeting the , friends of this Institution, but on no former occasion did he see them muster SO numerously. Mese, hear.) He hoped that the incite** cf numbers would correspond to the increase of the funds and interests of the institution, and was sure that those whit con tributed to its funds would ICCI themselves amply repaid by the self-satisfaction they world feel at having contributed to the relief et those who stood in need of their aid and services. (Cheers.) The Duke of Toga next proposed the health of " 3lr. Kean, and success to the Drury-lane theatrical Fund." Mr. K t:ax rose, sod in returning dislike spoke to the following effect t--" In rising to address your Royal Highness anti this very brilliant assembly, I feel • diffidence, which is, however, grass I y overcome by the acknowledged condescension of your Royal Hight es, and the experience this Society have lung hid of your bring a sincetc friend to the child of adversity. (Hear, hear, hear.) This knowledge gives We • confidence in addressing you to which I would not otherwise presume ; it is not I, hut the cause, that speaks. (('heers.) That cause is one to which those who contribute, contribute to 'gate the 'ideates of the unfortunate, and to dry the tear of real calamity. I ant the more ',odious of addressing a tew observations to you on the present occasion, am I sin on the eve of quitting my country, (Loud cries rat " No, no !" in which his Royal Highness joined,) and necessarily the situation which I have the honour to hold in this institution. Anti the first uhaerviiiion 1 sin anxious to olh.v is, that of congratulation for the advantages we have experieured from the patronage of Ills Royal Highness, which has raised oar funds from a state of penury to one of comparative prosperity. The yew 1818 was the first in which we hot 'he honour of hie presiding p▪ resence, and (nen that moment our iulvaneement has not only been progressive but rapid. I perfectly well recollect bow dreary was then the prospect before us : the scanty annuities we then were able to allow the claimants on our funds were necessarily minced from twenty to ten per cent.; we heard complaints without the meats of relieving them ; we could only join Our tears with the tears of our brethren lot distress, and unite with them in the acclamations of de spair. !tut the patronage of his Royal Highness came at a feetunate moment ; it turned the current of prosperity in their lunar; and, like the sun bursting through the gloom of desola tion, el ispelkil the vapours and restored use day (Immense cheering). To whatever part of the world I may Ire wafted, I chill ever clue nth, and hear in grattul remembrance, the elects of his bene ficent patronage over this institution. It is not that he has been th: protector of this or that theatre, but that he has been to the na tional drains a patron ; and, what is inure valuable still, to its mem bers in distress a friend. (Applause.) For these services he will receive a more precious reward and consolation than any praise that I can bestow, in the tears of gratitude of those whom his bounty has relieved, which shall be to him a passport to " that bourne" where such deeds are recognised and rewanfed. To the public, to whom " the unhappy never plead in vain," this insti tutem is deeply indebted : their bounty has enabled us to incase, at a larger rate even than by 6 per cent. the gratuities which the insti tution bestows, and this. too, at a time the, the slumber of claim. ants has been considerably augmented. 'l'he present company will bear in mind, that with an increase of chums a corresponding inarase of resources is necessary; aid indeed I am sanguine enough to hope, that, from the growing augmentation of bounties. this institution, at no distant day, will be able to give to the veterans of the drama a full half of what they enjoyed whilst in actual service. I cannot forbear from alluding to the marked deft. ✓ieirey of contributions 1/71 the part of niy brothers of the stage. They erathly have been waning; and as a stimuli'', to induce them to support this valuable institution, I would refer them to a gloomy catalogue of bunts who at one moment basked in the sunshine t; prosperity and public favour, and at the next would have been hurled into the abyss of misery, without a roof to shelter them, were it not for the beeeliemit mil of this excellent and MUM useful fatal. (APPlauee.) That is not the situation of its who are here 1041 4 y, but It might become so. (Applause.) The subscription of an intlividaal is trifling; but the aggregate of the subscriptions, coi out injuring those of greater, greatly and effectually contri butes to relieve thaw of lesser fortune. I need not bold forth a brighter example of imitation than the distinguiahal founder of this fund (Mr. Clarrick), who was not more apt to represent •' conic ninth" or " than he was ever ;early to extend a gene rous hand to the unfortunate, and anxious to place a Inuitatiom to their distresses.

" The Vice-Presidents." Thanks were returned, on their part, by the senior Vice-President. The Committee o f ttry-.ane. Dlr. Crit.c•A r T. in returning thanks on behalf of the Commit tee of Drury.lane, felt that his duty was confined within a very sorrow limit.

Ilia duty, an Chairman of the Committee, was tri vial and inconsiderable. It was however gratifying to reflect seen and to acknowledge the extensive and liberal patronage 'hie! , this theatre harl received. Indeed, with the exercise of tech talent on the part of die performers, and he would add, with tie exertion of much reel, the manager might fairly calculate on the aninuance of such patronage.

After this toast, the ladies retired, and his Royal Highness having proposed a few additional complimentary toasts, withdrew amidst the loud anti congratulatory plaudita of the company.

On his Royal Highness va cating the chair, there was a loud call for " Mr. Kean," but that gentlenian hail retired at the same time as the Duke of York. this absence created considerable disappointment in the company, arid, after a short delay, the chair was taken by Mr. Ironmonger, proprietor of Drury-lane, under whose presidency the harmony of the entertainment was admirably continued and preserved to an ad vaneed hour of the night.

Nut so the Prince's tutor. Old La fiaucherie was well venial in human nature, and the sudden and violent addiction of his pupil to gardening, led hint to suspect that there was in the doe sonic other amide*. besides Pomona. Accordingly, one day lie made the garden the scene of his evening walk, and the appearance of the mortal Potnoila was quite sufficient to enable hint to make up his opinion on the subject.

' The next day, he accordingly told the Prince that, on the following morning, they were to set out for Pau, and from thence proceed to Bayonne, I where the French Court at that time was. To say that Henri was pleased at this would be doing him in ! justice; to say he was sorry, would be more than the truth. Ilia I were mixed feelings, in a case where there always ought to be, but waver was , nor will be, immingled regret.

Your love is all I have in the world—if I hew it, I Nee everything ;"—and she wept bitterly as she hung upon his neck. These things are, I believe, always said in substance, what ever may be the weeds, by a woman at the moment of separation. But trite as they may on that account be considered, they are to me inexpressibly touching nevertheless. It is the truth of these fears which makes them affecting laegrading and painful as it may be to eimens it, out of an hundred eases there are not two in which the prophecy is not accomplished. I ant far from saying that all part o% is necessarily followed by inconstancy ; but a parting like this, where the lover is very young, and has been a favoured true—when he is to g . o into the world kir the finit time, and his qualities, alike.

Bend said what are equally the imivered parting words of men, but which arc not in the least touching, because they are not true.

At that moment his vow of unceasing affection was a tnse one, for it Was made in the spirit of truth ;—at that moment, the tears which he shed were as heart-gushing as her own.

THE FIRST LOVE OF HENRI QUATRE.

The topics which these embrace, though by no means exclusively masculine, not at all beyond the cotnpreheusion of the softer sex, have yet 'not the same interest, nor do they carry with them the same charm, as those subjects enrich are associated with the phi ! keophy of the heart, in which ladies are infinitely better ' instructed than we are, and compared with which all other concerns to them are tame and vapid. It is therefore more peculiarly for their gratification, that we transcribe from the above work the following simple, pathetic, and sweetly natural delineation of " TOE FIRNT LOVE OF lILNILI QUATUF."

FRENCH CHAMBER OF DEPI:111:g. APRIL 5. REDUCTION OF THE RENTES. The President, M. Raves, took the chair at one. The Minister of Finance ascended the tribune, and delivered the following speeds : Gentleinen,—Seveml favourable causes have raistd our rents to the high price at which we now see them.—(After detailing the will known causes, the Minister continued.)—Whatever are the causes, the facts are these :--Our !trate is above par ; it is even sold shove it under the knowledge of an approaching re-payment, or of a reduction of the interest to four per Cent. It would have been at 110 our 115, if the frankness of the Government had .tiot meet its intentions known in proportion as it conceived the hopes of realizing then,. " Two special evils would result from this state of things; the fiat the daily purchase by the sinking fund, that is to say—by dm' tax-payers, of the Rester at ante above par; the second, the 001W1 tinuanee to the state of an interest of live per Cent., while the prim, of the Reales would be such u to give purchasers only • much lower rate. A prudent adminlstraticm should seek the means of putting an end to these evils. " The perpetual debt of the State amounts to 197,014,02 tram.% of annuities (or &aka) at 5 per mut., but when we consider it with relation to the proposed operation, we must subtract from it about 117 millions due to the State, to establishments endowed by the State, the possess:m of which is subject to the right of re. mainder in the State, or of which the use is regulated by particular laws. _ " It would he useless, and even impossible, to comprehend the conversion of this portion in the gereral measure. There remain then 140 millions of b per cent. Reales, which we propose to you to convert into 112 millions of Itentrs (nr annuities) at .1 per cent., or to reimburee(if they prefer it) the holders of Armies by selling to others the 3 pee cents. which they shall have refused. " The plan of the proposed law is conceived in the most simple terms. It first authorises the conversion of the 3 per cents. into per cents., either by the assent of the holders, or by selling the 3 per cents., in order to pay off the !solders of 4 per cents. It lays 'down the limits within which the Minister may act, and which he Imuet not exceed. The first of these limits is that fur the sake of the holders. They will all have the option between the re-imburse. ment of their nominal capital, or the conversion of their 6 per cents. into 3 per cents., at 76. *. The second is also a guarantee for the holders, that the Mi. Inieter shall negociate the 3 per cents. which they! have refused only at the same rate of 75f., and a guarantee fur the State, that the operation shall only take place in so far as it shall present, as a re sult, the reduction of a fifth of the interest on the debt converted or paid off: " The last limit is laid down by necessity. The benefit of the reduction to the public Treasury shall bot be delayed beyond January 1,1821 i. The Minister then justified the legality and justice of the pro posed measure. The right of paying o ff the debt at par was to be found in the ancient laws ; in the edicts by which the Rostra were constituted ; in the titles issued in virtue of those edicts, in which the right of repayment was for ever reserved to the State ; in the civil code, and in all the private acts with borrowers, in which their Heater were always entitled 5 per rents. %I' hy mention the caring!, he observed, if nut to recognise that they were repayable at that rate ? _ . _ The Minister the* adverted to the cai.c of the holders, who had berm forced to accept a reduction of their stock to a third, in the course of the Revolution. Ile had ob‘erved that such of those per. sons as had preserved their /Irides up to the present day, were placed, by the increased value of their capital, in a much better state than those who, by the calamities of the times, had been obliged to sell them, and than those whose life annuities had been unmercifully reduced at the sane time. Atter answering sonic other anticipated objections, the Minister read the following " DRAUGHT OF THE LAW. " Louis, &c. "Single Article.—The Minister of Finance is authorised to substitute Reeler at three per cent. for those already created by the state at live per cent., whether he effect it by exchanging the Mrs per cents for three per cents, or by paying oil the five per cents by means of the sale of the three per cents. " The operation shall not be effected but in so far as-- " 1. There shall be reserved to the holders of the 6 per cents the power of making their option between the repayment of their nominal capital and its conversion into 3 per cents at the rate of 761. " 2. That it shall present, as its definitive result, a reduction of a fifth on the interest of the debt converted or reimbursed. ..... . . " J. That the Treasury shall enter on the enjoyment of this re duction of interest on the lit of January 11126, at latest. " The Minister of Finance shall render a detailed account of the operation in the course of the first following Session of the Chl2lll. (Signed) "IA/UIS.

The following are the principal passages of this Address:— " SIRE—Your faithful subjects, the Deputies of the Depart ments, come to depose at the feet of your klajesty the homage of their veneration. " They recognise the hand of Providence in the memorable events which have recently shed new lustre on your Majesty's reign. •• Revolution pursued and vanquished in its last refuge; a captive King replaced upon the Tnrone ; a generous nation re stored to religion, to her l'rince, and to her laws; triumphs in which humanity are always co-equal with glory—so many great deeds have been the work of less than one year. " Their accomplishment required that army not less admirable fur its discipline than for its valour, and that Prince, who, in a pe. rind of great trial, has disclosed his whole character to the country, of which he is the pride and hope. " Sire--Your promises are fulfilled ; a portion of the liberating army remains in Spain, until order may there be re-established. " It is the last set which Providence expected from generosity. " The glory of our success is not interrupted by the necessity of any new sacrifice. The words of your Majesty have only re. called triumphs--have o ly announced benefits. " After these glorious days, in which social order has been emancipated by victory, your Majesty desires to insure the demi- ' nies of France. l'oo depend upon our patriotism to second yot.r views. Sire, there is notion,. useful to the Throne or to your sub jects that you ought not to expect from us." We are happy to learn that everything promises us a long en joyment of general peace. France has proved that she thought no sacrifice too great, when the dignity of your Crown and the safety of the State demanded it; but she feels that an honourable peace is the tuost precious of benefits, and we thank your Majesty for the pains you are taking to preserve it. " May your Royal wisdom extend afar this pacific ascendancy. In the East, stop the effusion of blood and tears; in America, re concile the interests of France, the rights of humanity, and the duties of a sound policy. And may the name of your Majesty be hereby blessed in the two wortda. " It our Majesty wishes to close the last wounds of the Revolu tion. It was for the King who has already redeemed so many evils, that this great task was reserved. " Religion requires, for Divine Worship. protecting laws; for its Ministers, an existence mote worthy of them. " I 'ntOrturiate tide ity asked matting. but your Majesty has been mindful of tllFin„ and when ynut designs shall be accomplished, justice will have obliterated the last tracts of our civil dissensions. " The lb:milieu of the lepartinent will be proud to attsch their names to an epoch happy for France, and glorious for your Ma jes:y. The most honourable recompense of their fidelity will be that of having contributed to consolidate our rights and your worth, the royal authority and the public liberties." The King replied as follows: " I receive, with the greatest sensibility, the Address you pre sent to me. Yes, Providence has protected us, and if there re quires a new proof, I shall tiad it in the composition of the Chamber who are before me; you have done justice to my son. Nothing has given me more pleasure than the assurance you give me to reflect minutely on the laws that I am going to propose to you; they have fur their object the welfare and repose of my people, and to heal the wounds of that revolution which caused so much blood lobe spilt. I rely on your assistance and your good faith." CIIAMIO;R OF PEERS—MoxnAv. The Chancellor of France, u President, reed the Address voted by the Chamber to the King, with the Answer of his Mak:sty, u 'allows : •• su[—Your faithful subjects, the Peers of France, were anxious, on this memorable circumstance, to deposit at the feet of your 31ajesty, the homage ct their veneration, of their devotion, and love. " Yes, Sire—Divine Providence protects your Ittejerty, and your august family. It takes pleasure in hkitaing the driigna which you have conceived for the felicity and glory of your people. " More elevated and Poore views than thuve of a vulgar ambi tion have decided the entering of the French troops into the Penin. sole.

" Every thing guarantees peace in the interior, and ecnsideration abroad. The loyal conduct of your Majesty could but insure to him the esteem and cnntideneeot all the cabinets of Europe. " It is no: the spirit of conquest hut that of conciliation whirls animate% the great Powers, and your Majesty has reason to hope. for the common interest of all nations, that the beneficial influent:o of these pacific diapu,itions will be equally felt in the Eau and in the New World. •"l'he Chamber of Peers confides in the provident solicitude of your !Ilaicsity in adopting a financial plan, the success of which would afford the mean. of realising the dearest wishes of your pa. temal heart, that of allevinting the harden of taxes, and of healing [ the last *minds of a Revolution which has so deeply injured society. " Your Moiesty relies on the cooperation of the Chamber of Peers: you will not be deceived in your expectations." The King answered— " I am sensible of the sentiments expressed by the Chamber of Peers i 3 the Address it has presented to me. Yes, Divine Pro. vidence has been pleseed to second our derigns ! bet us return our thanks for it. l have recompensed my army by calling to the Chamber of Peers *even,' of the Generals wh o hove so well se. conded my son.
