At the season when the anniversary comraerna , . ration of this illitstriono Statesman ,is observ4 it is with the , utlitost gratificatiou we notice %rapid spread of InStitutions founded on his wiry , constitutional, and (we trust, therefore) inunov, tal principles. Every populous place in the conn tiy has formed, or is forming, Societies in itnita., tion Of the adMirable example Of the Pyr'r CLUB in the metropolis ; and thus throughout the land the friends of our invaluable Establishment in Church and State will have. rallying points where they may meet together and make their stand in rejoicing over the safety, or; if necessary, protect, ink; the rights' of their native soil.

N0.1.- 7 -A Child rescued by its Mother ,from an Eagle's Nest. A. DAwc, A...-!--Tne Artist has treat ed ,the subject' in such a manner as to make a strong impression on the mind,_ independently of all its merits as a work of art. The woman is of such .a form and' aspect as might be expected in her rank of life, pleasing but not" improperly ele gant in person'and features. Her countenance is strikingly expressive of maternal solicitude, blended with alarm. The babk-grotind slims the elevated point to which the mother bad ascended, and all the "itecessary alt 4 sttbonfin:q.e parts give unity'and of to the Whole.; the landscape of rocks is very tine. No. l 5 .- 7 Frosty Horning. d. M. W . Tun tyry,lt , H. A.—The precision as well as spirit with which this Artist reliresents nature, is, universally ac knowledged ; and so far as the subject :admits, this exactness and animation appear in the work before us. The.colonring is in' full accordance Kith the seene, it . represents., and the whole may be considered as a tine portrait of Nature. No. General Sir T. Grahmit, K. B.—T. L. , iv.licNct, H. A.--This may be deemed one of the hest works which the Artist has sent to the Academy for the present year, and may indeed rank with some of the best which he has produced There is a manly tone of colouring, and a vigor ons of character. The lights and shades ate so jadicion9y mingled as to produce prominence, and plenitude . of. effnet. It is gra tifying to, see, the pencdnt so eminent an Artist employed upon a character who, has.so justly, ex cited the esteem and admiration of his.col.atry, BRITISH INSTITUTION. SIR JOSIII7A. RE Y NOLDS.-We should.regret the want of opportunity to enter into a particular ac count Of the admirable works of this . Artist, so honourable,to, the country", as well as to himself, if we had not the pleasure of knowing that the public in general arc fully sensible of the treasure that Is presented to them, and croud to the spot where it may best- , ,2n,---The effect must be highly advanvigeous to the .Arts, as it will: refine the taste and improve the judgment of those Who de vote themselves to.paiotipg, and it will also enable the public at large more properly to appreciate their Merit, We therefore conceive that much is owing to those; liberal and' enlightened Patrons of the Arts by whose efforts the works of Sir Josutin were assembled in this' manner, and who have enriched the collection by such of them as belonged to themselves, We have only to hope that they will not require the Exhibition of those exquisite productions of taste; feeling, and genius to be soon closed, but let them remain till the public mind shall be thoroughlyimbued with their . excellence. • N rc— from ATIONAL, EDucATIo We copy the Morning Post of this day, the following gratifying account of a public examination of the Children of the National Society Central Sawa!, at Bald win's Gardens, before His Grace the ANlibishop of Canterbury, President; the Archbishop of York, the Earl of Shaesbury, the Bishops of London, Linz() 'Salisbury, Worcester, Hereford, Ely, Ox— ford, and Chester; Lords .Keny.on.and.ltadstock, the speaker. of the House of Commons; Archdeattin Cambridge, Bet. 11)r.

LICENSES, Mi.: WHITBREAD wished to ask the Right Hon,;., Gentleman opposite (the:Chancellor of the Ex- 'chequer) a question; on the subject of licenSes granted: to Annericiur vessels. bound to. the port of Lisbon, which were 'to protect them :from being molested, nOtwithstanding-' ary hostilities that might mkt place . between the two c_ktlntrie . s. thg faith of this protection many speculations had been entered into, yet ilewasintormed. that Ame rican vessels sailing undrr these liCell,3e§ had been taken or detained by any blot;katling squadron. He wished to know if the Right [lon. Gentleman. could tell him on what principle LicenSes issued at a time when war was contemplated between the two countries, and which, according,to the word of„thent, embraced all : hostilities, were set aside, when one particular species of -hostility, that. of blockading the Anlerican ports, vas re•;' sorrel; to ? To him this uppeared,a breach of the national faith, and he therefore wished to llein tormed.on what principle such a - measure bad been 'adopted. The CHANCELLaIt of the. tixclnEtturrt wished the Honourable Gentleman to write to the . Hoard of Trade of the subject, as be would then Obtain a more satisfactory answer than it Was' in his' power to give. .The Licenses alluded to had, he believed,' been gynnted• before a; blockade of .0 the _American ports w% , .s contemplated, hitt he did not know ,under Aviiat particular cireum- StaneeS. . Mr. tirtiIT.IIREAD repeated, the licensef; bad been so worded, that should hove thought they Would have embraced every circumstance of war. They had never been revoked, and therefore be ' cn n .: ceivca any seizure or itetenti,on tinder them to he unjust. . . Mr. Alderman ATICTI:ZS 'and Mr. WitrrnaiAr; -exchanged a few words across the table, alter. which Mr. Robinson having entered, Jr. WfilTlTßEAD,,seeing the Secretary to the. Board of '1 rack in his place, begged to ask him:, the iinestion .which he h4il jest pat to the chaa cellos of the Exchequer., He accordingly re peated it.: Mr. ItomNSON had not heard of any such cir cumstances as the seizure of air American vele!. sailing under licenses of the 'description alluded to by the Hon. Gentleman. Some licenses, bad' been granted preyions , to the'issuin s g of better!kcif Marque, and anterior to the declaration of w a r, and-vessels about to sail, under these, Sir J. B. Warren had tot allowed to proceed. Several American vessels bad beep stopped, but not cap tured. Ml': WHITBREAD said, as the war between the two countries had bee contemplated at the time these ticenses.cre issi.d, 'he thought thctr Might fairly have been interpreted to exempt those to whom they were, granted, from all interroinion and molestation arising out of,the hostilities be tween the two countries, They 'oughi: , • not to 1)e interfered with by a blockading sqildrotr. Such interference might cause the parties much injury, severe losses, and even ruin, though their vessels were not captured. Mr. ROBINSON thought the Licenses in qUestion were datLd the 14th or Eith of September. These set forth, that those who -held them were not to be molested in the event of hostilities breaking out between the two countries, but it was not meant that this protection should give permission to break through a blockade. The Licenses were intended to protect-American ships on their voy age, but if a port were blockaded it gave them uttr right to break the blockade. Mr. A. BARING' said, the licenses !lad been. granted to enable American ships to carry provi sions to our armies in the Peninsula, and there fore they were protected a.gainst fie would put it to.any man understanding the Eng lish language, if it might not fairly be assumed, from the wording of these licences, that their owners might sail from any American twit to any port not blockaded, though they Might not be. perm'tted to return to the port t'roin wllich they had • s if that port were put In a state o blockalr • Mr,RonmsoN still contended that thc , Al Ii ceases, granted before the commenccancilt t,i the! war, could not he understood to give peen;ission . to those who' held them to break tiny ble:•cliade which had sobsetinetli-heen vcsolved eal► gin. • Mr. Patsfric , l was proceeding to offer some marks , on the subject, ; ivhen ttw Speaker remind ed the House that no pi cstion was before thm, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer then rose, I% ) ir l w ) l E rd '-"l the w l e t e t i ot t i o on tl o 'e i given by be *Zincr; res iN P i e r ' . 4 l l*? t g rat ti t ' t e c y Ci :v ii i i si r le i t s i t' to, be :'llowed t thlt his 1 1 6 n.
