We all know what a small support will save a drowning man and enable him to reach the shore. So small an amount of support, given at a mo ment of . pressure, will enable a man of genius to keep his head above water and to reach in safety the goal of his aspirations. The merit of this in stitution is, that whereas genius is of no country, so likewise the range of its beneficence is not cir cumscribed by gesgraphical limits. The foreigner and the Englishman are equally the objects of its bounty, and many there are of all climes who have been recipients of its benefits. There is another c fr ir o c ci t u rrn eo st t a ly nc h e w app h e ich ns t o h u a g t h t t h n e o h t ig t h o or be th o o m fl it ig ted. It htofa man's genius, the greater his talent, the more cap able he is of distinguishing himself in.the career of intellect which he has adopted, the nicer also are his feelings, and the more anxious he is to hide his troubles from the World. The considerate method in which this association dispenses its assistance— viz., in perfect secrecy, enables a high-spirited and sensitive man to receive in his hour of need'suc cours beyond all value. (Cheers.) There is, how ever, one fault attsched to this society—a fault, happily, not beyond the reach of a remedy, and yet one which, I am sure, not only all those now present, but the inemb rs of the institution itself, will concur with me in fiillY admitting. That fault is that its funds are not co-extensive with the ob jects to which it is desirable thaf they should be ap plied. That defect I call upon you, gentlemen, to correct, not only by the contribriVons which you, may yourscl-ves - be dispoied to give, but by exerting your influence in your reapictive circles to induce others to furnish the institution with the means of enlarging the scope of that benevolence which even in its present limited sphere is beyond all price. (Cheer , .) The noble lord concluded by proposing the toast,- which was drunk amid loud applause. The health of the noble Chairman was next pro posed, in very eulogistic terms, by Sir R. MIIRCIII soN, and warmly rec , ived by the company. The Noble Lord suitable acknowledged the com pliment, and then gave " The Foreign Ministers." His Excellency M. VAN DE WEYER responded, taking occasion to remark upon the extent to which Enelish literature was appreciated in Belgium, and to intimate that an international congress of literary men was about to be held in that country. His Excellency conc'uded by proposing "The Li terature of Great Britain," for which Professor Creasy, in the absence of Mr. Thackeray, from in disposition, returned thanks in an eloquent speech, in which he rapidly reviewed the progress of Eng lish literature in its various departments. The re maining toasts were—" The Literature of Conti nental * Europe," introduced by Mr. M. Milner, M.P., and acknowledged by M. Merimee ; and "The D stinguished Travellers," proposed by Mr. Hope, M.P., and responded to by Sir H. Rawliu son.

The 60th anniversary festival of this institution was celebrated at the Freemasons' Tavern, Great Queen-street, last evening, the Right Hon. Vis count Palmerston presiding. The re was a very large muster of the friends and stir porters of the fund, covers being laid for 250. The occasion was also honoured by the presence of many ladies. Among the principal guests were—his Excellency , M. Van de Weyer, Belgian Minister, bis Excel lency Cout,rt Platten, Swedish and Norwegian Mi nister, the Marquis of Weatnriniter, the Earl of Ellesmere, Lord Talbot ile'Malatride, the Hon. P.

Hurst and Blackett. In proposing " the health of her Majesty" the noble CHAIRMAN referred to the f ac t t h at Q ueen Victoria was the first Sovereign of tbi scoun t ry w h o had recognised literary attain ments as a cl a im to the distinctions which it was her peculiar preroga tive to bestow. He need not say he alluded to the peerage which had been conferred upon Lot cl Macaulay, not so much on account of his l or d s hip' s Imerits as an orator and a politician, great as those undoubtedly were, as for his brilliant reputation as a man of letters. _ _ - - _ The toast was duly honoured, as were also the other loyal and patriotic toasts. Thanks were returned for '=the Army" by Sir C. Pasley, and for " the Navy" by portion of his Count Platten, the Swedish Minister, who passed a career in the service of this country. The noble CIEAIRMAN, who was received i with loud cheers, then roseand said, t Ge emen, I now beg to propose to you the toast of the evening, "Prosperity to the Royal Literary Fund"—the prosperity of that institution fur the promotion of whieh we are now assembled. There is nothing more stlikingly characteristic of th's great country than the manner in wh'ch private combinations and co-operation accomplish works and undertakings which in other parts of the world require all the power and resources of Government. (Heir.) The face of England is literally covered with the spies e did achievements of these associated efforts. But among the various results attained by this potent agency there is nothing perhaps more honourable to this country than the admirable mode in which associations of private individuals collect together large funds forpurposesiof benevolence and charity. (Cheers.) We have only to look threueli those pe riodical records in which the ltboors of such socie ties are described to see the extent to which private I associat ous achieve honourable and praiseworthy ends. But among the various objects aimed at by such combinations there is none,perhaps more cal culated to excite sympathy and admiration thauthe assistance and eneouragemene of teen of lettersand of genius in their hours of adversity and of trial. (Hear.) Au association for such a purpose is surely well fitted above all others to attract to itself the co-operation of all men of generosity and good feel ing. Now, the institution, the claims of which I have the honour to advocate is peculiarly designed to aid and succour the distresses of those who have directed their intellectual faculties to literary and scientific pursuits. There are oth-r branches of human skill in which the genius of man displays itself, and which though they may give equal scope to the devel o p men t of that genius, yet stand, in re gard to the mode and f the extent to which they ap peal to the feelings mankind, in a somewhat dif -1 forentpositi oe frgm letters. The painter, thesculptor and the architect and do possess, the fire of genius in as may possess, as the poet, the historian, or the novelist. But the productions of the painter the sculptor and the architect are restrict ed, to se to speak,a given local habitation ; they are condenud in a specific work, which affords, indeed, the highest delight and instruction, and awakens noble emotio ns in the breasts of these who are so fortunately situated as to be able to behold them ; butuy apace , tli eir influence ehceon mankind at large is limited confined to those who are on the spot wher e the originals are to be seen, or where they can do - honour to. those originals through the medium of th e best copies that can be produced. The literary roan on oti the other hand, has this ad vantage,—that hiss works travel over the whole faCe g of the civilised that in every nation where intellect is cultivated they are found alike among rich and poor, forming the enjoyment of the social family circle, or furnishing materials for the reflec tion and meditation of the student in hi s ser ious hours. (Hear.) The benefits, therefore, which mankind derive from the results of literary effort are more wide-spread and universal than those which flow from the most successful exertions of human intellect in the other departments t o whi c h I have advertt Butl. there is yet anoth er advan tage literature may ea posss r l s over those other ar ts,— viz., in what I the immortality of its pro ductions. The architect and the sculptor are taught to remember that they cannot rely for enduring f a me upon the faithless eoi utnu or the cru m bli n g m bust." Their works live long, and y e t th e y mus t sooner or later succumb ay to the rava ges o f t i me . The painter, too,however great the glory he may ) acquire for a lengthened period, prod uce s wor ks still more open e --- o the destructive effects of time, even if they escap e the more fatal, though, perhaps, less unfriendly efforts of the restorer. (A laugh.) But literary productions survive for thou sands of years. • And we have an example not only of the duration of sueh works, but of how the ge nius of one age may stimulate the genius of another, for we have recently seen an elaborate dissertation published by upon the greatest pee . t of . antiquity Oue of the_most distinguished men of our time. (Cheers,) % But, gentle mere, the car of men of career let ters is nut without its difficulties and it s trou bles. The m ount of literar y fame may rise at first in a gentle slope above the level plain ; the u pward road may a ppear smo o th, easy, and in viting ; and some are teeipted to make the ascent by fancying that the summit is near at hand and their strength i s sufficient to bring them th e r e. B ut as they advance they find 'heir difficulties increase a nd many stop s hort almost at th e foot of the mountain ; others are arrested mi dway ; while a few rare spirits, spurred on by ambition and gifted with indomitab l e ener gy , reach the to pmost height, and from their lofty elevation survey that horizon of glory which the ir labours have entitled them to enjoy. But even with them the rewards are some times doubtful. My excellent frie nd Sir Roderick Murchison can tell any traveller who starts from Somerset House to any part of the globe what strata he will meet with, in what peculiar geolo gical formations he may expect to discover the cious metals, and where he may direct his energies with the prospect of au ade q uate rec ompense ; but be cannot tell the literary aspirant who tries to climb the steep to which I have advertel whether midway or at summit lie will find an El Dorado to reward his exertions. (Laughter.) Gentle men , we all admire the res ults of literar y' labou r ; but there are those who know all the anxietiee an d difficulties by which those brilliant results have i n many cases been accomplished. Could we but see the man of genius meditating alone—could we but have laid bare to us the stregglieg thoughts swel ling within his bosom and endeavouring to embody themselves in a work which he believes will im mortalize his name, while, ou the other hand, he is dragged down by domestic cares, or by some of the many accidents and misfortunes which are the com mon lot of humanity—.could we see the i nwar d workings of that man of genius, we should not only say with the ancient philosopher, that the noblest sight is a great man battling with adverse fate, but. we should feel the high advantage of association like this, which steps in at such conjuncture • with assistance, not gle3t in itself, but PUBLICATIONS.

HEALTH OF LONDON DURING TSB WEEK. (Prom the Report of the Registrar General.) The deaths registered in London in the first three weeks of April were successively 1,221, 1,207, and 1,144 ; in the last week ending Saturday, May 1, they were 1,125. In the ten years 1848-57 the arerace number of deaths in the weeks correspond ing with last week was 1,045 ; but as the deaths in the present return occurred in an increased popu lation they should be compared with the average, after the latter is raised in proportion to the in crease—a correction which will make it 1,149. The deaths of last week were, therefore, less by 24 than the number which the average rate of mortality would have produced. The births returned for the same time exceed the deaths by 592. The . last two returns show a decrease in deaths by zymotic diseases from 262 to 254, and in those by "local" diseases, which include diseases of the respiratory organs, from 477 to 444. Whooping cough still predominates in the zymotic class, an not caused 69 deaths, a number which, howeveit:,_isa:les so great as those of some previous weeks. t M was fatal in 54 cases, scarlatina in 32, y has in 31.

Three of the sailing vessels carry 12 medium 32-pounders each. The armamen each tof the rest merely consists of one or two guns to ship.
