LI IP RA R Y &."I) SOCIE7t The anniveriary of this Institution was yesterday celebrated at the Fieemasnus' Tavern. His lloyal Highness the Duke or You took the Chair, being supported on the right by the Duke of Someratt,. and on the left by the French Anthassatior. There were elan present Louie Torrington and Bolton. the Right Hon. George Canning, Si, Benjamin Hobhoilee. Sir J. C. llippisley. and several other persons of distinction. After the cloth wee removed, the ROYAL CHAIR• MAN gave " The King," which was chunk with four'limes four. mull greet applause. " the Roast Family." The health of the Duke of Ynrk having been proposed hey the Duke of Solitaire, and received. in ■ very flattering mariner by tlie comitsity, hi s Royal Highness returned thanks, and %Howed them lie should at all times be ready to come forwaid in aid of the Chanty. " ILe tistiseuiehed Foreigner' who have honoured us with their cemploy." Mr. CANNING rose and said, he had to perform l i the tAt of returning thanks on b e h a lf of one of their visitors (the French Ambassador), though he was aware that no want of ability prevented that distinguished Nobleman from making his nektiow ledgments iii person. There was not an individual in Europe more celebrated fur his literary attain. meats tool distinguished ',lentil. lie had been the supporter of monarchy wheu its right. were invaded, and he was now come to represent his Sovereign in this country, and to form an union between Eng lond and France which should be cemented and adorned by the benefits and attraction% of liters tore, cultivated with a mutual seal, and cherished with airdent but delightful emulation. Sir 8.1-108 HOUSE felt assured the meeting would give a favourable reception to the toast he was about to propose. He was sure they would drink frith acclamation the health or a Gentleman who was the life and ornament of literature; and as he was soon to take his departure frosts this couutry, deer would concur in wishing him health and pros. peril in a foreign land. He concluded with giv log— ig Right Hots. George Canning," which was drunk MA three times three. Mr. CANNING said, he felt infinitely more em barrassmeat to returning thanks upon his own se cosine, than when he 'addressed them on behalf of their diatinguislied visitor. He felt great delight in hearing the statement of the funds of the Institu tion, which were represeided to be in so favourable a condition. Gentlemen, he was sure, would make allowances for the distractionsof a public life, which Must plead his excuse if lie had failed in any mode within his power to promote the welfare of a Society in which he took so lively an interest. The reference which his Hon. Friend had made tie his appointment to preside over the government of en extensive territory, and an immense population, occasioned a feeling of deep humiliation, for he' was aware he should sink in the compsoson with. the illustrious person who at present administered the affairs of that country. He knew how de servedly that Nobleman was endeared to them. on sccuunt of the munificent patronage he had at all times afforded their Institution ; and if he should be fortunate enough to encounter him in a distant country, he was confident it would afford him no ordinary gratification to learn that he (Mr. C.) had that evening seen the Chair filled by the second personage in the realm, and surrounded by persons of such distinguished character. He hoped the Society would long continue to flourish, and as none of its members comributed more to its ad vancement, he should beg leave to propose— " The health of the Vice-Presidents." Lord TORRINGTON regretted it had not devolved upon a person of greater ability than himself to return thanks on the part of the Vice-Presidents. His difficulty was considerably increased by rising immediately after the most celebrated orator of the present day. and he was aware how feeble his ex pressions would appear when compared with the animated Ihritguage of the Right Honourable Gentleinan who had just sat down. Ile was inixious, however, to 1111*Gre the meeting the Vice- Presidents would continue to use every exertion to promote the success of an Institution riga blished for the purpose of relieving neglected ge nius, and for the cultivation of literature. " The Royal Academy." " The Stela: wile of the Day." In the course if the evening the Secretary read the Report, which presented a very favourable pic ture of the pecuniary affairs of the Society. It also contained some interesting details relatively to per sons who had once possessed a distinguished place in the literary world, and who had received assist mime from the Committee of Management. The Secretary also announcing to the meeting two half-yearly subscriiitions of 100 guineas each, front the King, stated that during seventeen successive years a similar contribution had been received from his Most Gracious Majesty. We regret we have mile room for the subjoined extract from the Anniversary Poem, which was re cited by the Author,. W. T. FITZGERALD, Esq.: " Let not the sons of Family and Pride The starving Author's poverty deride; In life, perhaps, neglected bei may roam, Without a friend, a comfort, or a home'. Though dull Obscurity his days u'ercass, Fame may do justice to his ninth at kst; And many • bald, • moralist, • sage, Survive the memory of • theaklese a g e ; For alien corroding Time in clout shall mould The Muse's rotary, and the slave of gold, The wretched mist, w the grave descends, • And, with his wealth, his worthless story rude : Nut so the man, who rich alone in mind, ftequesilis his all—his talents to mankind !

I.i the southern and western districts of the island the population depend for their sustenance upon pota toes. Instead of the crops being retard and stored as is this country, in Ireland they are suffered to remain in the ground till waisted fur use, rapt though originally productive, : have been round or wished sway by the heuvy rains and floods WiliCal occurred about three months ago. It is there, theft, that femine•has reared her heed, accompanied by her usual unwelcome intesidani., typhus lever. Such is the scirchty now felt is Ireland, that manly of the inhabitants hare torn the bark from the trees, mad rased the seed 'sown for the sleet sealsou's suppiy, for the purpose of affording a sesaty putrimeot a. almost exhausted nature. It is our duly *ea snouts to afford the Irish those supplies we Ceti so cell spare, and of which they stand so much in nes a ; but I would more particularly call upon you as inhabitants of this enterprising sod opulent town ; I would reter you to our trade lists. from which you will perceive that we owe much of Alert opulence to our intimate counexion with. and inoximity to, Ire land. They have, therefore, a further claim 0 p... our gratitude to administer speedily to their wows." Mr. Case concluded with moving the Resolution. Sir JOHN TOBIN seconded the Resolutions. Mr. SANDIRS spoke to the following effect :— a'Sir, it is not ray intention to opposethe Resoluti. tot submitted ; nn the contrary, they have my hearty coticurreuce : hwt I rise, Sir, for the purios- of • making some obaervatious as to the mode of adml _ aisteriog relief. lam aware, Sir, that every pinii proposed is entitled to consideration ; but as errs. twous views exist in some places as to the outlive the distress, and as plena, which I hold to be perm cioua, have been projected, the sooner they are poi:- holy reptobaied the better. What, Sir, is t h e nature of the distress ? It does not arise from a scarcity of food, and yet it has been proposed ti, send more. It arises from the want of snow y and the want of employment, consequent on the low prices of agricultural produce; yet, Sir, it lilt been proposed to reduce them still lower, and thus odd to the disuses by the ruin of thousands of wretched farmers, who have just been enabled to escape from the fangs of the bailiff—oho here jiot escaped the horrors of being sold up, and tomer. out hooseless sod pennyless. I cannot imagine are act of greater cruelty and oppression than such as interference with the natural market of the farmer. who has produced a commodity which he is willing 1., sell eta ruinous price ; hut this measure would the length of saying he shall not sell it et all. stn aware that we are not met to discuss the gnus - 11111CrS of the agriculturists. but I submit, with great. confidence, that in stretching out our hand to rehes.• one class, it is our bounden duty to take care the'_ we do not ruin another.
