Sully, Esq., F.R.S.; General Kenah , General Itiddelf. Henry olland, Esq. ; Countess Grey, Hon. Miss C. \Valdegrave, Mrs. James Taylor, and Miss Knox. Lord ASHLEY, having taken the chair, said he hoped he' might be excused from detaining the meeting by an) lengthened observations, for he had left another meeting in great haste, and the chair in it vtould remain vacant iii he could return. But be could not begin the bw.inesi of the meeting without congratulating them on the very marked improvement that had taken place in all their arrangements, and especially as to the regulations in point of time ; and he hoped that they would see that the efforts t hey had made and the zeal they had shown had not been altogether thrown away, for great improvement had been 'made in the circum stances of the young females who were the objects of their benevolence. Mr. GRAINGER, the Secretary, was then called on to read the report, which stated that situations had been obtained through the office during the past year. for 434 persons; that there had been a reduction in the hours of work ; that still there was a great wont of out-door exercise, and in the matter of food there was reason to fear, in many cases, there was a deficiency both in quality and quantity. Lord DUDLEY STUART, being called on to move the first resolution, that the report be received , said. it was with great pleasure that he rose to do so ; for all would agree with him t hat. the report read was able and satisfactory, and likely, if printed and circulated, to do much good in furthering the objects of the Association. It gratified him especially that there had been a reduction in the hours of toil. Employers them selves had been led to see there was a policy in refraining from overworking those whom they employed. This was 'acknowledged in reference to animals, but much more must over-fatigue affect the amount of work done by the human being, whose mind, as well as his body, was inti mately affected. The maxim was now being generally re ceived, that honesty is the best policy; and in this case that maxim, he believed, applied, for it was decidedly dishonest in any person to overwork those whom they employed. He begged to add to the motion, that the report be also printed and circulated. J. TOTNBEE, Eq., seconded the resolution, which was put and carried. An amendment was moved to this resolution by a gen tlernan in the body of the meeting, that no good could be ultimately done by the Association so long as foreigners were employed and ladies had their dresses made by their maids. Lord ASHLEY could not put it, as the mover was not a member of the Association. The Earl of ARUNDEL and SURREY moved that the Right Honourahle Lord Ashley be re-elected President of the As sociation. _ _ _ S. SOLLY, Esq., seconded the resolution, which was car ried unanimously. Lord A.suLET, in acknowledging the honour done him, alluded to the general movement throughout the kingdom, to secure for all engaged in labour a portion of each day for their mental and moral improvement. His Lordship moved the names of those to be re-elected as vice-presidents, and of those to form the ladies' committee tor the ensuing year. Mr. REDMAYNE moved, "That the thanks of the meeting are due to the medical officers of the Association, for their efficient services." ••••1•V•Y• • V • •• The Rev. THOMAS BOODLE seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. The Hon. Captain Kos moved, and Mr. SMITH seconded, " That the thanks of the meeting were due to R.D. Grainger, Esq., the honorary secretary of the Association." The thanks of the meeting were voted to the Hon. Chair man, and the assembly separated. CORNWALL AND DEVON CEN- THAL RAILWAY. A meeting of the shareholders in this undertaking was held, at twelve o'clock yesterday, at the L9r.don Tavern, hishopsgate-street. H ;Williams, Esq., was called to the chair. The CHAIRMAN, in 07:ening the business of the meeting, stated that they had called the sharehol&rs together for the purpose of laying betore them the position an I state of affairs of the Company. A report had been prepared, and he would call upon the Secretary to read the same; he would then be happy to answer any questions that might be put by the shareholders present. The SECRETARY then read the report. The CHAIRMAN then stated, that in order to afforl the shareholders the power of giving expression to their opinions on the subject of whether the atfiirs of the Company should or shvnild not be wound up, they had prepared petitions to hot h Houses of Parliament. Mr. 1). W. lANVEY proceeded at some length to comment on the position of the Company, and pointed out the rea -60118 why the Cornwall and Devon Central Railway, in his opinion, would not participate in the benefits of the proposed Government measure. After some considerable time had elapsed. and a warm dis cu.sion had taken place, it was announced to the meeting by a Mr.Clipperton,a solicitor, that he healed the opinion of the Solicitor-General, to the effect that it would come within the meaning of the Act. • On the motion of Mr. Osborne, of Exeter, the meeting ad journed sine die.

GRAND ENTERTAINMENT AT THE MANSION-HOUSE. —Wednesday the Lord Mayer and the Lady Mayoress gave a splendid entertainment to the judges and many of the principal members of the bar and their banes. Amongst the company at dinner, which was laid out in the Egyptian-hall, and supplied with the most luxurious prodigality by Messrs. Ring and lirymer, were the Vice- Chancellor and Lady Shadwell, Lord Chief Justice Tinial, Chief Baron Pollock and Lady Pollock, Judges Park, Wightfnan, Alderson, Rolfe, Erle, Platt, Dodson, and Haggerman, and their ladies ; the Attorney and the Solicitor-General and their ladies; Lieut.-Colonel Frederick and Mrs. Smith, Colonel and Mrs. Harris, Captains Paley and Steele and their ladles; Sir F. and Lady Simphinson ; Sergeants Talfourd, Channel, Thompson, Allen, Wilkins, Hain, and thelr ladies the Mayor of Liverpool, Mr. Bethel, Mr. Waltelin, Mr. Clarkson, Mr. Bodkin. Mr. Laurie, Mr. Locke, Br, Merewether, and several other barristers, and their ladies ; the Chamberlaitg• the Common- Sergeant, Mr. Pritchard, the High Bailiff of Southwark, and other City officers, and their ladies; Mr. C. B. Baldwin, M.P., and Mrs. Baldwin, , Miss 'Mier (sister to the Lady Mayoress), Miss Bam ber, Mr. an d Mrs. W. Johnson. Mr. and Mrs. Sivewright, the Rev. Charles Farebrother and his lady, Mr. Deputy Brown and Mrs. Brown, Mr. France, Mr. Palmer, Mr. C.

The usual toasts were proposed, :le knowledged, and drunk with much cordiality, and the entertaimnent passed off with more than ordinary Eclat. A correspondent, who thinks that the " unclaimed dividend" books of the Bank of England should be open to the whole public, is not aware of the dangerous consequences that might result from complying with his wish. At present, books containing the names of stockholders. and the date Ott which the tint dividend was payable, are to he obtained ; and though the price of these may be beyond the reach of the humblest classes, we do not believe that this wo uld preclude all chance of their recovering their property, if they could give a tenable reason for supposing they had a claim. If too numb IntOrtnation were afforded, a great facility would be given to fr.ti , d and tOrgery, and we might have a repetition of the famous Itarior" C 4 1 40 con stantly occurring. The oflioers of the accountant's depertment, therefore. reserve to themselves the Power of giving de tailed statements to persons who show a right to receive them, and very properly refuse to gratify Whit Way hi Idle ctWliolty, ir 191 W THE DANISn CLAIMS.. --- (From the wily 11'rtns.) The question of the Danish claims, aver tour distinct ad judications by Parliament in favour of the claimants, is pro posed to he again brought before the House of Commons to morrow by Mr. Hawes. The- claims originated so far back as 1807, out of the seizure and sequestration of certain Bri tish ships and cargoes by the i_ , ani-.11 Government, in rrrri'll for that extraolditiary aggression by which the British Go vernment obtained forcible possession of the Danish fleet. The attack upon Copenhagen, and the capture of the fleet, were, as is well known, acts preceded by no declaration-of war; the Denial' reprisals followed as a matter of course on the in stoat, as no formal declaration of war could be necessary after such Britishaggression . In the case of Buenos Ayres, n'm waiting a solution, it is clear that if the Argeutiue Go vernment had made s , izure and contisc tier of British Property upon the capt.:re of its KintulTo • bv the coin stood fully htt r i n: o s e t t ‘ i , r i e i n e e ; u e s n e i s n a t t h i doe demand, however 't e e owners e h i o r w o e e v and F!el•cil fleets. as 1 - 1 niet it t hare he entitle mi could eoreign. °thee insists that there is . no war with Bite e t r to i :. would seek and obtain, or trontueno, A m 3 i g re b s t , although:i g i i rg ri e t s e ' tl ern toot, i t b'A i ri ve lel - 4 ; r r Ta tilm wets and actua Fa; a., tha r . r r c l , a o ffect in hawing r ia tn r ; d c I t aii - 11. 1 .: ' ei under e harems un a ti - 74 ° *;: i tIV: The British Government of that day rds,; there was no war with Denmark, th e car tire tl,- notwithstanding; alialthough . ubseq...o..i. iv, :mil ni.w a Ti s i b o ti r e 7i•r t to defeat rights incontestably establishet, and snore th at , .- ad mitted formerly by minieteri.l action 411,11 111 plication, it is pre tended to efeestrty an ordinance is•ned by the 1). nish Government after .th , ; seizure and aeque,tration of British hips and cargoes referred try, into a d,claration of war, and the' actual deearation, when it did come, as, by retro-active effect, converting the provisional seizure into a ca-e of lawful prize of war. Perhaps the strong est point against the Government, however, is the admission ofltir. Percival, the Minister of that day, that it fund was in hand and set specidly apart, for the faction of these since and now contested claims, and thus stated in the me morial of the claimants:— _ h isa~ derived fi ‘e " a r t f i l o i n e s o u f n t C h o e l .l l ia i tis ): ! o : 6o :ll l ip , s wi a li t e ) frtl ao n t l ita tllll ; ;Ind over to the public service, instead of remaining (lids of the Crown, • because there were certain merchants who claimed. compensation out of it for the losses they had itirrirs. p, iiw r t ei ro v r a n t, sttuorenei:.l4n:3eot a r ll y it : 1 ItBtlho.,, ewr,r had broke out.'-- 6)llowing extends frcm the memorial strikinsly .. exem• /Ally ttl hard 'hips of-the casse,stut tits 4- claimants have been the vicirns, itt soine instance fo their rain. "It will be remembered that these claimants were invited to present their claims—that, by the express directions of the Government, they incurred the labour and great expense of' procuring the necessary evidence from Denmark, ICorwayg and the several seaports of England and Scotland to sub stantiate their respective losses —that theclailus, after a rigid. scrutiny of each case, have been regulariradjuaicated Government Commissioners—and that, although Parliameet has four times decided in their favour, yet a new prete x t h as been brought forward, on every occasion, for denyi ng th em. justice. The grounds now assumed by the Governme n t f or i opposng the claims is, that t he seizure so made was in eff ec t hat there is, consequently, no hostile capture during 14,11"—t d if obligation on the part of the State to in emn • against such loss—and that it would be a dangerous precedeet to depart from this rule, in con a ''cleration of any peculiar circum stances of hardship. The claimants assert, and are pre pared again to demonstrate, that the seizure was not made during an acknowledged state of war, or by *ay of hostile capture. It is alleged that an ordinance published at Gluckstadt on the 16th of August, 1807, was a declaration of war by the Danish Government. The claimants waart, and are ready to prove, 'that it was not such in fact, and s as not so regarded either by the Danes themselves or by the British, until it suited the policy of the British Government so to designate it. Again, with come inconsistency, it is alleged that the declaration of war, after the seizure of these vessels and cargoes, did, by a retro-active efficacy, make what was originally a provisional seizure by way of embargo, for en forcing satisfaction, or by way of reprisals for taking cum teary redress, a capture by enemies, and consequently lawful prize of war. The claimants deny that this legal refinement of constructive "relation, even if maintainable at all, can change the character of reprisals, or release the state front its obligation to indemnify, . . . • • • " There can be no risk of establishing a dangerous precedent by granting these claims, though there may be, and will be, in refusing them. Is it just that the merchants who w ere navigating the Baltic in the full security of existing ami cable relations, should, by the consequences of an act of their own Government —sudden, aggress: ve, unwarranted by any precedent—of which they neither did nor could have surmised anything beforehand—be stripped of their property, without one shilling of compensation? More especially, it is respectfully asked, is the re f usa l o f compensation Justithlla when, by a like, but far less warrantable, seizure of Danish property by the British authorities, a fund was realised suffi eient for the indemnity required--a fund, too, Lvowedly set apart for that purpose." --- REPORTED VIAT OF PRINCE.
