The Proprietor of this Hotel has much pleasure in informing his Friends and the Public tha: during the winter he has provided extensive suites of bedrooms, in addition to the wing constructed last summer ; this wil prevent a recurrence of those disappointments which so frequently took place from his inability to accommodate his friends in the past year. It is his intention to persevere in that course which has already given such general satisfaction, viz., to combine the nest Mines, Viands, Attendance, and Cleanliness, with Moderate Charges. The sa!ubrity of Lowestoft , the exce llent bathing, and beauty of its neighbourhood, for riding, and walking, are too well known to require comment. S. lIOWETT has only, therefore, in conclusion, to call attest on to the easiness of access and lowness of fares from the plsces, a list of which is subjoined, and to express his hope that he will continue to experience that liberal support with which he has already been favoured.

Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Honorary Hember of the London Hospital Medical Society Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c, The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists The treatment adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated schools of medicine both In this country and in continental Europe. The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condens e d un d er the personal supervision of Dr. La'Afert, himself one of the few legally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short, every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and thdeelmiesaetlevecsonusniddeerrathioins care ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation of Dr. La'Mcrt, who has taken the most distinguished medical and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient will, in every instance, and guarantee that those whmoeetmwa y ith pl t a l e m e t inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these cases.

About 250 gentlemen were present, under the presidency of Mr. Robert Barnes, the Mayor of Manchester, and amongst the leading ay, Mr. Jos. company assembled to do h onour to the guests were Mr. Thos. Bazley, president of th e C ham b er o f Com merce,aiis Schwabe,SirElkana ju h r. Armitage,E.R. L Sir ngw Jeorhthn'', oMtte•Pr'.9MCr'. s Brotherton, M.P., Mr. Alex. H enry, an d M r. R. N. Philips.

Egg , E, Wilkie Collins, Esq., Frank St one, Eaq., P. can. ningbam, Esq , W. H. Wills, Esq,, R. Bell, Eqq• ; and after the cloth bad been removed, Mrs. Dickens and several other ladies occupied seats in the ban quetting room. The CHAIRMAN having given, " The members for Manchester and Salford, Mr. JOSEPH BROTHERTON, Mx., responded to the toast. Mr. JAMES CROSSLE Y , in proposi— see the toast of the evening, said it becomes my most pleasing duty to express the high gratification we must all feel in re ceiving in this city, on such a en i, B • lol4 and seeing prem is s .on this occasion, as spr egue ,, iti p. tne „ idistirkt.. guished company who represent the friends-of the Guild of Literature and Art, who to bring to bear upon us the old artillery of genius, wit, humour, learning, dramatic talent, and scenic power, to coerce by means the most effective, by means the most delightful, our adhesion to this grand scheme of judicious and far-seeing benevolence. —(Applause.) The Guild of Literature and Art originated under such auspices as scarcely ever gave sanction or authority to any similar public undertaking, and supported by a series of brilliant,: efforts which have scarcely a parallel in our annals. There can, Sir, be but one opinion—that it is a noble design, and that it has been as nobly sustained.—(Cheers.) There is no one who is in the slightest degree conversant with the literary history of his country—and a sad, melacholy, and humiliating history it is—but must have been aware of the necessity of some such - provision as, without, infringing upon the high feeling of rianly independence, without impairing the self-respect of the individual, should extend to the author and the artist that assistance which at certain stages of each of their precarious prefessions may prove of most inestimable benefit ; some such provision, in short, as, interposing lik e a good angel, might have rescued Chatterton from " grimvisaged, comfortless despair ;" might have saved many a bitter pang to the lofty soul of Johnson, and many a cor roding anxiety to the amiable, the exemplary, the most accomplished, but over-worked and over-toiled poet of Keswick. To afford that provision by some adequate endowment, united with arrangements of an economical and provident description, became the anxious study and care of those whose splendid, and splendidly deserved, literary success has never caused them to lose their interest, or their sympathy with the sufferings or the wants of the very lowliest of their species ; least of all with that part of it to which they were knit, and attached by kindred feelings, and whose history, whose habits, whose peculiarities, and whose requirements they understand so well. These distinguished leaders of the public mind, com bined with as powerful a phalanx of friends distin guished in every department of literature and art as ever actively co-operated in any work of good, pro posed, in aid of that great design, entertainments which have electrified and delighted all parts of this kingdom, and all classes, from royalty d ownw ard, [ and which had afforded us that grand desideratum in these days, when every invention of luxury seems almost exhausted—a new pleasure of the most exhilirating and agreeable character, while engaged in gravely performing the duty and second ing the beneficent intentions of the founders of the guild. To those founders, and gratifying it is to know that now, on this occasion, we have the honour of entertaining them—will ultimately, in all human probability, belong the praise—and a prouder or or a loftier it is scarcely possible to imagine—of having infused new elements of happiness, indepen dence, and security, into the condition of those whose profession and whose mission it is to civilise and in struct mankind, who give us the only true and real endowments, and whose gifts are the only perpetua l inheritance of their species ; and we, therefore, may surely claim, as matter of right in their hour of need, some endowment of the perishable and transitory goods of fortune. To reali ze th at endowment, we h a ve seen, and we now see, w ith w h a t hearty good will, with what harmonious co-operation, in these but days when so much is said of lit e rary j e alousies, 8 that ' which appear to me to be like those mists d oun are said to gather around the base of the sacre al ished tain, but never obscure its top—two distingu. their way spirits of the age, who have deservedly won their to the pinnacle of literature, have exerted estimation of va rious and matchless powers.

Well, then, gentlemen, if it is to mental kings owe their purple, and havens their vessels, thatd markets their merchandise, you cannot wonder that an we, a handful of authors, not craving honour needing aid for ourselves, are still inspired wit s h or a s ense of the dignity of our class, in the gr ea t hier archy of mental labour, and do desire to lift above the chance of degradation all those and ennoble the order to which we b I e ong.—(llear.) This is the main object of the guild; and now, on behalf of myself and colleagues, I will very shortly ex plain the origin and purpose of that institution. It is not quite two years ago since a few gentlemen, emi nent in art and letters, met at my country house for the purpose of a dramatic entertainment ; you have seen those gentlemen perform, and you can well con ceive the delight that their acting would give to a rural audience.—(Hear, hear.) Well,'one day when we were conversing together, it occurred to us to have some play performed in the provinces for some bene volent object; and one said, " And why not, for the sake of some distressed man of letters ?' and another said, " Why not, for some permanent benefit to litera ture itself ?" and thus, in the course of that general conversation, the outline of our present scheme be came visible. Ido not think there is one of us who „maid w •to arrogate-to himself the exclusive merit of ethit i .i t ii o selfut of Our general interest in the cal* and was ripened by our general enthusiasm. —(Cheers.) As I have no taste nor talent for acting, it was settled that my contribution should be a play, which has been raised far beyond its merits by the ex my colleagues.—(Hear.) When the salient acting of I ventured, with the concurrence and play was written, my colleagues, to draw up an outline co-operation of for the general design and constitution of the guild— in abort, to embody our common notions. Now, we were all agreed first upon this—as a principle, that we would endeavour to divest this institution, as much as possible, of the mere character of a charity. It is in vain to boast of the dignity of letters, unless we can inculcate that which is the foundation of all dig nity—l mean independence—(Hear, hear)—unless we can establish a kind of right to whatever aid or relief our funds may enable us to bestow. Now, we attain that right at once, by adopting the principle of a benevolent and provident society, in connexion with assurance against the contigencies of the future. Every m ember of the guild must therefore be bound to contribute something towards its funds, and some thing towards some insurance company either con nected with the guild, or any other company which he chooses to prefer. By this we obtain a secondary advantage—that we do inculcate those habits of self reliance, of prudence, and of foresight, in which it has been said that men of genius are too often deficient, but which no man, whatever be his genius, has a rig ht to consider hi mself above.—(Hear, hear.) It has been said in an old Latin proverb, that no deity is present where prudence is absent , and we do not desire in behalf of literature that any one of its labourers should call upon others to help him, until he has shown that be has done his best, like a man, to help himself.—(Hear, hear.) Now, gentlemen, having thus laid the foundation of this institution upon the principle of a benevolent or provident society, we adopt the name of " guild," be cause that is the old English name for those associa tions in which members of some particular class or calling co-operated for the benefit of each other. Our next object was to raise a man of genius, an eminent man of letters, from the absolute necessity of daily task work, which is always very precarious in its profits, and which may o ften oblige a man indefinitely to postpone some work which might immortalise himself and instruct a nation —in fact, to take a man of genius from being a mere bookseller's hack We therefore propose, if our funds allow us. to institute a certain limited number of life annuities, which, though they shall be sufficiently modest, will still suffice for all the simple wants of a scholar. We shall not consider it necessary that any candidate for these life annuities should make a profession of poverty or destitution • because, if we were to make poverty a qualification, though what we de sign be a tribute of gratitude to merit, we should give to a distinction the character of a humilia tion.—(Hear, hear.) While we propose that these annuities should be given to those more eminent men of letters, to those whose years are matured, or whose reputation is ackhowledged, we shall propose also a secondary mode of relief to those who have struggled upwards in the more arduous part of their career. We are sure that there are very few profes sional men of letters who will not recal one period of their lives when they were almost in a despair of the morrow—when a small pecuniary aid, if assured for one or two years, might have enabled them to face all difficulties, and have saved them from broken energies and shattered health ; and enabled them,!per haps, to accomplish some work which would have raised them to independence and reputation. Now, there was such a crisis life in the of Schiller, the great German poet. At a time when beset with cares and difficulties there was danger that that fine genius would have been bowed to the rudest drud gery and have had his character soured to misan thropy, two foreign noblemen prevailed upon him.to accept a small annuity for a period of three years, and it is to th e e ff ec t w hi c h th a t a id pr o duced on him that we m us t ascr ib e th e won d er f u l c h an ge that took place in the direction of his talents and views of mankind. From that period he devoted not only his genius but his conscience to his art, and he became one of the most elevated and moral of the writers which modern times have produced, instead of be coming what his earliest work promised, one of the most dangerous and revolutionary.—(Hear, hear, and applause.) You, therefore, see, gentlemen, that the modes of relief we anticipate to be twofold ; first, a permane n t m ode of relief in the way of life annuities to those whom the public recognise to be the chiefs of arts and letters ; and next, assistance for a more limited period and to a smaller amount perhaps, for one, two, or three years, according to the discretion of our society, to those who shall have given sufficient promise of industry to enable us to hope that they may one day rise to be chiefs them selves. We do not profess to give anything like a momentary relief, by way of alms or charity. We leave that to the noble institution of the Literary Fund, which is amply sufficient for this purpose ; although by the laws of this society, it does not, and cannot, fulfil our object, since it cannot give more than fifty pounds at a time, and cannot bestow any thing like life annuities. The Artists' Fund is also subject to similar limitations. Our next object will be, if the society flourish, to connect it as much as possible with the great body of the people by some link of general utility and instruction ; if for instance we should be able, so we hope we may be able, to make the guild undertake, as a corporate body, to give lectures gratuitously at all the principal mechanics' institutions and at other associations in tended for the instruction of the people through out the kingdom.—(Applause.) At all events it is with a view to some purpose of that kind, to show that we attach tuition to whatever emoluments we bestow, that we have borrowed something of acade mical names for those who will receive the emolu ments—calling the life annuitants professors or fel lows, and calling those who are admitted to salary for a limited period by the name of associates. I, for one, consider it indispensable that we should attach something of educational duties to the salaries which we give, as a general principle; because the moment we attach payment to the duties all sense of degra dation vanishes.—(Hear.) Gentlemen, it would detain you far too long to enter into the complicated matters connected with anything so complicated as a constitution. At the same time, I do think that we shall conquer a great practical difficulty—that is, of obtaining a fair and impartial tribunal to decide on the claims of the candidates. I think we shall be able to establish a fair and popular electoral body ; and I am sure that we shall spare no pains to render the choice of candidates as free as possible from the preponderating influence of any particular sect or clique, and open to the wholesome check of public opinion. Gentlemen, I do hope, and I do believe that ultimately it Will bet a distinction to be a member of this guild, and tha the salaries will be regarded as a recognition of ge nius, and not as a mere charity to dists.—C have ettectea hear.) But in the meanwhile we shall te d a prin at least these objects : We shall have invested adorn our cipal of pecuniary aid given to those wcharacter than country with a more just and elevatedlhave inculcated they have yet assumed. We s.hhat a mongst all our habits of prudence and fore fislogurishes it will be his brethren ; and if our society em i n ent man of letters own fault hereafter if any , n e eea a patron or dread a should in his old age e_ithtefve shall establish a familiar gaol. Ido hope also that we themselves, which at link not only between. Hy e wanting, but between our the present time is wholly and those associations and more scholastic learning institutions in wh ich the men h • c and operative bring 2111 their soul for kn owledge, and their generous en thusiasm and, i fact, if we can carry for its masters out ultimately a 11 our objects, n I hope that we shall have laid the foundation-stone for an institution which may serve authors as a guild, and tend to instruct the public as a college. In the meanwhile we are not to forget that this is the first time in our own country in which authors have come forward manfully to pro vide for themselves in the time of infirmity and old age, without cringing to the Minister for a pension— (Hear, hear) —or without lowering the respect due to their talents by a painful exhibition of distress. — (Hear, hear.) It is a reproach to our age and our country when some grey veteran—some Belisarius of Letters—stands in our streets, showing the wounds feelings, which he has received in his wars with the Goths and their the Vandals, and begging for pence after he has served an empire.—(Applause.) Gentlemen, it does not be come me here to say what I think of the services of my colleagues, authors end artists, themselves prac tically acquainted with the condition and feelings of rendertheir brethren. literature Seeing in this guild something that may raise that condition and respect those foremost en a they rgie s , theirhav e talents,de v o t e d andto this thei r cause time, eamongst all operations, forward amongst all diffi culties, thatamidstism aalalwswenahelcavils,mhaasehbe to popular,and the people literary. More on another occasion I should say, but I content myself with this passing that must sneers s h . a a s n d d A o n n d e a n r homage to a Dame be rising to every ch lp—l mean the name of Charles Dickens.—(Loud Gentlemen, of the ulti mate success of this e n e i r l s d . ) 1 do not entertain a doubt ; and very much of that g hassuccess it will have owed to the encouragement itreceived in this town of Manchester. It is true we h of our Gracious Sovereign and have obtained the favour her Illustrious Con -tortr-tsieltice# had the active me' ration and sym pathy of one whose princely Pe mind dignify him more than heartbis coronet and his and expanded honours—l mean his Grace the D u k e of Devonshire, foremost amongst our list of subscriber name in rank and letters; but likestill,sand our first all human institutions, the guild would not have secured the elements of vitality and duration, if it did not enlist the hearts of the people in its prosperity and progress. —(Hear, hear.) And it is to you in Manc, hter, and to others, whom I may perhaps call our fe llow es operatives in skilled labour, in the various towns in which our design has been made known, that we owe something much more than a munificent addi tion to our funds—we owe the influence which your example has given to the circulation of this great truth, that all departments of intelligence have a common interest in securing dignity to noble labours, and raising up into an aristocracy of our own the artisans of thought and the craftsmen of civilisation. —(Cheers.) We may, indeed, as was said by my friend Mr. Brotherton, differ widely in politics—we may take different views as to the contests of party or as to some of the theories of civil government ; but as, after many ages, we have established in these isles the sublime doctrine of liberty of opinion, so let us raise above the influence of that want which often in flames the judgment and sours the patriotism, those writers who, from their silent closets, do send forth the opinions which ultimately govern the market and the senate; and perhaps more and more, in advancing time, we may find that indeed men of books are wise conciliators and gentle arbiters in the strifes and con tests of men of action.—(Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, you all remember that story of Aladdin, which we have read in our childhood, in which a poor youth de scended into a cavern, an d brought back from its re cesses an old lamp. Accidentally he discovered that by the mere friction of the lamp a mighty genius ap peared at his command. Awed by the terrors of the spirit he had summoned, he at first only ventured to apply its powers to satisfy his common and his hum blest wants —to satisfy mere hunger and thirst. Bat gradually accustomed to the presence of the gigantic agent, he employed it to construct palaces, to amass treasures, to baffle armies, and to triumph over foes, until, at the close of the story, the owner of the wonderful lamp is the sovereign of a peaceful em pire, assured to his remote posterity. Gentlemen, that story is the type of labour at the command of knowledge—(Hear, hear.) When we first find the lamp, we are contented to apply its genius solely to our common physical wants ; but as we are accus tomed to the presence of that spirit we have sum moned, we find we have obtained a secret which places the powers of earth, air, and ocean, at the com mand of man.—(Applause.) That genius, left to itself, would be a terrible and a threatening minister, because that genius here is only rude physical force, but to him who possesses the lamp, the genius is a docile and a benignant minister, because her physical force is the slave of intellectual will.—(" Hear, hear," and applause.) Now, gentlemen, in that same physical force—which in the phrase of the day is sometimes called the "power of the masses"—lies a grave problem for all thoughtful men to resolve.—(Hear, hear.) Knowledge has brought us face to face with it; and knowledge must either instruct that force, or it will destroy the invoker. May, then, therefore, all those who possess that knowledge, who are gifted with the lamp, use it only for generous and useful pur poses, so that the genius whose strength could rouse the earthquake, and whose breath could bring down the storm, may only come to e nrich the treasury and Gentlemen, I have assure the empire.—(Cheers.) . by the ohs erva ti ow s on now the pleasi n g task of con cluding . which I have trespassed upon you, showing b much we do desire to connect our institution with l h to lace institutions of a popular nature —how muc a fore us o we desire, if we become a corporation, p e the example of per h a p s the most p o p ular corporation that exists in this country; s i n ce I have now to pro pose to you " The health of the May or of Man chester." said that both in his 'l7he M AYO R, in responding, he felt exceedingly public and his private capacity ' ity health had been gratified at the manne r in which hisb r e c e ived.

The next toast was one which he could have wished had fallen into abler hands than his ; but he was relieved from saying a great deal upon it, because it was well known to all present that they were visited by men Of very extraordinary powers ; and remembering the sacrifices which they made in coming on this errand of mercy, they ought to respond to the toast which he had the honour to propose with all the good will and unanimity which it deserved. Coinciding, as he did, with the sentiment that the day had now arrived when civilisation could no longer forget or neglect the civilisers, but that rather some extraordi nary eftbrt should be made to protect during life those who after death were revered as the molllltneti.a of their time, and regarded as the loftiest nobility of the land, he had great pleasure in proposing, and was sure they would join him in wishing health and hap piness to "The Amateur Company of the Guild of Lit era ture and Art, coupled with Charles Dickens."—(Loud a l the name of Mr. applause.)

After what will vo u have heard so eloquently said by my friend Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton on the scheme to advance which this little body of friends have been associated together, I feel that it would not be reasonable in me to trouble you with any observations respecting its general claims, or the immense service which had been rendered to it by Manchester. In taking the field to promote that object, we thoroughly and sin cerely knew it to be a good one—thoroughly and an d to knew it to be a just reproach to letters to art that it bad been too long neglected—and were thoroughly and sincerely resolved to do all that in us lay to help the need whic h we knew to ex • ist. Our little labours have, indeed, been labours of love. Careful business consideration of every detail of this project, and the most solicitous regard to the more pressing exigencies and weaknesses of our order, must now constitute the strength of the gui • ld, and must now be the foundation of its steady claim to general public support. What we have done has merely b ee n to set it going, and to give it, as we hope and believe, a deady, onward impulse.

A daring robbery, accompanied with violence and outrage, was committed on Monday night last at Bolton Grange, near Bradford, the residence of Mr. Charles Clough, solicitor, and clerk to the Bradfo r d county court. About half p ast nine o'clock seven men, arme d with pistols and bludgeons, having their faces blackened and covered with masks, entered the house, first making their appearance in the k'tchen, and ordering the ser vants whom they found there to maintain the most per fect silence, on peril of having their brains blown out. The screams which arose at this moment attracted the attention of Mr. Clough, who was at the dinner table, having been detained at Bradford to a late hour. He thought the noise was occasioned by the children in one of the bed-rooms, and he proceeded thither. On going up stairs, however, he found that the children were quiet, and he was just about to return, wh en ono of the domestics below said, You are wanted, sir." He immediately wont into the kitchen, and, to his alarm, there encountered several men whose faces were blackened and masked. He had no sooner got into the o stick towardsl w u d h g eo e r o n o n tt the ee e ys n hot , eau ai w rrd p h . :Oa ncri:d struck oofnsWe one h oeo i kitchen than ho was knocked down by one of the i ; e h d ew i m a e t e em l i y ue p isat o i i rnh n a t e e vd d e, rwpiamr. mere a se vere blow with a t y r p ei l mo at fm e t it." They then forced Mr. Clough before them into his own bed-room. They threw him upon the bed, and ordered him to remain there with his face towards the bedclothes. Mr. Clough had received several severe wounds, and was bleeding at this time profusely. The plate-chest was situated near the bed of Mr. Clough, and the fellows began to take out the plate, carefully exam ining it, and separating the silver from the inferior metal. Mr. Clough once glanced his eye in the direc tion where they woro engaged, and for doing s o received a violent blow from one of the bur glars, who accompanied the attack with m any threats. They secured all the silver plate, and loft the inferior articles behind. They also demanded of Mr. Clough any money he might have upon him, and he was obliged to give them two 5/. notes, some gold, several checks and bills of exchange, besides a gold watch and appendages. In the meantime, others of the brutal gang had plundered other parts of the house, taking from Mrs. Clough a gold watch and appendages. Two or three of them had also been to the stable, turned out the horses, and conducted the groom, whom they had found there, to the house. The band of robbers then, with the most violent threats, conducted the whole of the household—master, mistress, and domestics —to the cellar, and locked the door upon them. The robbers got safely away, taking with them property in silver plate, 8,:,c., to the value of 300/. The police have since been engaged in an active endeavour to discover the per. petrators of this outrage and robbery. A reward of 1001. has been offered for the capture of any or all of the rob bers. Mr. Clough is confined to his bed, and has suffered greatly from the wounds he has received. We may add that it is supposed that several other men guarded the outside of the house. B )Iton Grange is a lonely plac e , at a short distance from Bradford, met A GAs MANAGER CAUGHT N APPING.—On T ues . day last, the ann iversary of the marri a g e of the Ri g ht Hon. the Earl and Countess of Seafield, a ball and supper were given by the noble pair, at Cullen House, to commemmorate the happy event. Cullen House and premises have been for a considerable time back lighted with gas from the works of the Cullen Gas Company. But about twelve o'clock the ball-room was suddenly enveloped in utter darkness —every light in that spacious apartment, as well as in the numerous apartments in Cullen House, being ex tinguished. Messen gers were insta n tl y di spa t c hed to Cullen to ascertain the cause, when the manager was found snugly esconced in bed, and the gas at the works completely exhausted. This tem porary interruption to the pleasures of the evening was, however, remedied with as little delay as possible, by the substitution of wax candles, and everything went on in the same happy and agreeable manner as formerly,..—Bantrthirs AlAa. Total [P ,ICE SD. speaking in my managerial capacity—if I wanted any assurance--which I never did, for I hope I have long known better—that men of imaginative pursuit% can co-operate as steadily and staunchly as any other order of men, I should find it in the undeviating punctuality, the regular order, the forgetfulness of self, and the consideration of others which, behind the scenes, off the stage, in the bare daylight, when the lamps were out, and there was no gilding on the gin gerbread, knit our little association together in most unusual ties. And if I wanted any assurance from you that we are not likely to be very wrongheaded or mistaken in the objects we have at heart, I shall find it in the fact that every one of the three eminent writers to whom we had the high gratification of ren dering most timely assistance by our theatrical per formances before the guild was devised, have since been placed upon the pension list, and that I know with a delicate consideration for their feelings most truly affecting to themselves, and most truly honour able to her Majesty and Lord J. Russell.—(Cheers.) I have now the great gratification, with the chair ' man's leave, of proposing to you to drink " Prospe rity to the Manchester Athenaeum." —(Cheers.) I cannot disguise from you that I feel a kind of ardent godfatherly satisfaction in proposing the toast, for I can never forget that I had the honour of presiding over the first of its great meetings.—(Cheers.) I can nev er forget that I am o ne of its honorary life mem bers, and that my parchment of enrolment in that capacity occupies a proud position upon my study wall at home.—(Cheers.) In short, I belong to the family, and I contemplate the family greatness to night with a glow of family pride.--(Cheers.) Long, therefore, I most sincerely pray may the Manchester Athenaeum flourish, a pattern to the rising enterprise and energy of England, and a vigorous branch of that great social tree which, under the name and form of such institutions, has happily for all sorts and condi tions of men struck its roots deep into this land. Long may political divisions and party dissensions be forgot ten here, and very long may my old friend Mr. Crosby, in the character of an allegorical lion, lie down with the Radical in the form of an allegorical lamb on this p e aceful neutral ground.—(Laughter and applause.) Long, very long, may the Manchester Athenaeum in crease and prosper, work and strive—a noble t mblem of the wonderful place in which it rears its head ; and long may its young men, generously united to ad vance generous objects, render such faithful pyblie service as they have rendered the GuiteL4Viell - • terature and Art.—(Applause.) I beg to call upon you to drink " Prosperity to the Manchester Athe naeum."—(Cheers.) Mr. ABSALOM WATKIN having responded, Mr. T. FAIEBAIRN proposed the next toast, " Science and the Fine Arts. In proposing the toast, he mentioned the names of Mr. A. Egg and Mr. F. Stone. The latter gentleman returned thanks. Dr. JAMES BAHMLBY expressed the great gratifi cation that he felt at being surrounded by many of those distinguished persons who had shed so much lustre upon, and had imparted so much value and leaven to, the periodical literature of this country. He would, with their permission, without further pre face, give the toast of " Prosperity to the Periodical Literature of England." Mr. CHARLES KNIGHT responded to the toast. lie said—Mr. Mayor and gentlemen, I feel it to be great honour to have my name associated with the toast that has now been proposed, " The periodical press of England." Th ere was atime, in my re membrance, when the periodical press of England was a not what it is now. It wa s not thi n g . of universal diffusion and expectation : it was a that was confined to a few magazines and revie ws; t mg thing that had not entered into the he art it t f wasa Man chester. But when I now speak of the o Periodical s lit era ture of Englaud, and see around me h av e directed and elevated it , and who have raisede who lt into an instrument of great moral and social advance ment, Ido feel that it is a proud distinction to be connected with that toast. Gentlemen, if I understand that toast rightly, by the periodical literature of E ng _ land you mean literature which, distributed in sma ll portions, and at a cheap rate, finds its way into be e cottage, and into the garret, into the factory, and into the reading-room ; upward—into the kitchen, and then into the drawing-room ; —that literature which has a universal diffusion. — (Hear, hear, and applause.) This is the characteristic of the great literature of this age. And when I see that it is literature in thatform which hashed its lest and noblest currency from the hands of my dear friend, Charles Dickens, I do say it is a proud thing to respond to this toast. Doubtless I bad something to do with this great current literature, but I have not aspired to make it such an instrument and agency. 1 worked with humbled materials. It is some twenty years since the "Penny Magazine" came into this town, and I believe I did some good.—(Loud cheers.) It is not without a feeling of awe that I have looked for some time upon what is the characteristic of the periodical literature of the present day. I have seen it from a very small beginning ; and there now gees for waid, in the parcels from the London booksellers, which have grown throughout the land with infinite ramifications, periodical literature for which the people of England pay a million per annum. I speak not of that which is to come afterwards, " the press," —that is, the newspapers—hut I speak of the perio dical literature simply. It is a good thing, or it is an evil thing. I do truly believe it is a great thing. I do believe that what is evil in it, and there is evil in it, will be corrected by what is good in it. I do believe that the good will extinguish the evil, and that the periodical literature of England, which I have to speak of, will be an emblem of the growing refinement and educated spirit of the nation. Gen tlemen, I cannot speak of literature without associat ing with it the great object in connexion with which I have the honour to be your guest this day. I do believe, if there is anything to be deplored in our periodical literature—if there is anything that is wanting in its character—if there is anything that has a tendency to lower the moral feeling of England, it is this : that there are some men who are so pressed by their necessities and their position, that they are ready to do any work that is presented to them in the shape of mere hireling service. If there be an institution which is to rescue such men from their unfortunate condition, and to rouse them to feel the great responsibility that every man ought to know that he wields—it is an institution which shall place them in independence, and say to them, " For God's sake, never degrade yourselves by writing against your conscience, for a m ere ven i a l payment of your pen," which shall extend to these men some effectual relief. We should teach the people to discard all that is poor and mediocre in literature, and to make our periodical literature the opening key t o the great body of the p eo pl e , o f t h e treasures of past times. It cannot be said of the people of Manchester, that— " Knowledge to them her ample page, " Rich with the spoils of time did nc'er nereb es h ter That cannot be said of the Peop le of tirrary i when you open the doors of your Free beg to p ro p ose t o you "The Free 'Libra ry of Man chester."
