MONTHLY SUMMARY OF PROCEEDINGS ON THE FRONTIER. (From the Cape Monitor.) _Our last summary of intelligence from head-quarters, nearly to the close of January, was published on the 3d of February, and forwarded by the mail packet Bospho rus on that daY. A postsaripaof the previous, evening added the very latest news just received, viz.:—That Butterwnrth Mis sion Station had been burnedlo the ground, -and Krell, the Trans-Keiam chief, had asked for peace (Jan. 27.) ' It appearathat on the evacuation of that station by the 6,000 or 7,000 Mopes with their families and im mense horde, under the escort of Lieut.-Colonel Byre's division, the enemy reduced it to a heap of ashes. The object of the Kafir chiefs was , now 'merely to .gain time to reap their'cropli;and to‘ lay : in fresh stores of arms and ammunition for the purpose of renewing operations on a more extended scale. ,They therefore had recourse again to their abuse of British clemency and forbearance by • messages and other diplomatic ruses, at which they are such adepts'. Bokoo and Ma ntissa, who have been forgiven and re-adopted, are again " Smith's children," again they are " thankful for the Goyernor'iii Word." '""ltrellbegs to be allowed to sit at the Governor's :feet, 'and he will endeavour to collect the 2;500 bead of cattle demanded for the destruction of Butterworth a and the injury done th© traders; hut it wouldhe difficult, as so many of his people's cattle had been taken." We believe, however, that there are not less than 81:000 head of cattle at this moment in pos session of his tribe. • The-arrant rogue Unahata,' on being ordered to " eat up" a number 'of chiefs who had broken the oaths sworn on the " stick," to deliver the stolen cattle and horses, and to pay 1,000 head of good cattle, received the Go vernor's messenger and his staff of office with great re specs. slaughtering an QS on the occasion; then he col lects his ainaPakati (councillors), and " thanks his great Father Smith for his,word ;" he,- however, begs for time to seek the required -cattle. •' The VSlamoie chiefs are . informed,, through their commissioner, that " seven coluinns of troops are in motion on the Amatolas„" and that they must eat vp all the war party, and hand over their cattle. The chiefs are very grateful, and -if they find any stolen cattle among their people, will deliver them up. It is to be hoped, hOwever, that the combined move ment on the Amatolas will induce these crafty, treacher ous diplomatists to art in accordance with the promises, which we knot,. to be thoroughly specious and hollow. The combiqed movement upon the Amatolas was com menced on the 26th and 27th Jonuary, in seven columns, under the following officers Major-General Somer set, Lieut.-Colonel Pole, -Lieut.-Colonel Eyre, Lieut.- Colonel Colonel Napier, Lieut.-Colonel Skipwith, Lieut.-Colonel Nisbet, Major Kyle, Captain Tylden, and Captain-Catty, comprising a total of about 7,000, Royal Artillery, Royal Engineers, 12th Lancers, 2d, 6th, 12th, 43d, 45th, 60th, 73d, 74th, 91st, and Cape Mounted Rifles, and native Levies; together with Fin goes. W hilst, on the one hand, the enemy received prompt reinforcements (stated to be 2,000, and 400 Kafirs and Hottentots), on the other hand, they continually Called out to the troops " to go away, as they were tired of the war." Sandilli based his application for peace on the clemency shown to an Englishman who had fallen into his handr, and whom he no w sent i n, ask i ng, " Am I not Smith's child?" Macomo, the deepest of all these barbarians, sent in his - favourite wife, with two oth* women, who reported that Macomo's councillors were determined to make peace, as they had no powder. " He made sure of getting peace, as lie had got it every war when he flaked for it." Meanwhile some of the troopi were employed in opening a pass into the Amatola basin. Colonel Michel's division had reaped and destroyed 200 or 300 acres of Kafir corn, during which operations Lieutenant Armitage, 6th Regiment, was wounded in the shoulder. Lieutenant-Colonel Pole's division had killed some of the enemy, and taken 1,000 head of cattle (since sold for 1,0001.) and the Kat River Levy, in two engagements, had killed 20 Ka,firs, 'and captured a few cattle and horses, althoup.attapleed by a greatly superior force of the enemy:' On the 6th Pebruary the Governor issued a procla mation (republished below) calling upon all burghers of seven frontier districts between the ages of 20 and 50 to assemble on the Bth March, under the commander-in ehiet himself, and expel the rebel Gaikas and Hotten tots from the, %Vuterkloof Blinkwater, Fuller's Hoek, Kat River, end the whole of the Amatolas. Had the organs of disorder and misrule withheld that villanous teaching which thirteen months ago persuaded the duped people to disobey the Governor's appeals, the enemy would' long since have been at our feet and for ever; but now we scarce dare hope for a favourable reply to this last call. Murder and rapine still stalk upon our border, disaff,ction continues, and the enemy becomes more insolent and daring; the re gular troops are fully occupied-in the Amatola range of mountain featnesses, and the borders are infested by prowling murderers and thieves. At the Mancazana 10 Kafirs and Hottentots stela from one gentleman 10 sad dle horses, and from another about 400 sheep—the ma jority of which were gallantly captured when en route for the mountain retreats:. . A eltraal at Riebeek was broken into by a party of Hottentots and Kafirs, who killed 1 horse, and stole 10 others. On the 29th Jamie . are', between 100 and 200 Hottentots and Kafirs, nearly all mounted, attacked the eattle-kraal of Dr. J. Ather stone, jun., at Table Farm, four miles from Graham's Town, an got off with-130 head of valnable.cattle; and . although pursuel beyond 40 miles, the murderons,band escaped, bavirig shot ono of Dr. Atheestone's servants dead P.'Berttem, tme of the purstleis, had scarce returned home witla'.his party, when his own cattle were .reported to be stolen by Ksfirs; he immediately re mounted, and With three farmers and four servants pur sued and retook the booty. In Somerset, Field Cornet Van der Nest's son, a youth of 16, received a ball in the jaw whilst pursuing a band of robbers. Another patrol came on the spoor of eight mounted rascals, going off with sfolen horees towards Macomo'a camp. At Whittleses the enemy made a sweeping race, but were _gallantly encountered and beaten, with the loss of their own'horseS At 'Salem . Mr.. Long's herd was wounded .by some of tleae.,prelviling savages. _ _ On - the 6th of February,, a general order was issued, directing that some Kafirs of the Gwali missionary sta tion, who had been fighting the wbole war, and who had now surrendered, should be disarmed and dismissed, and that none, excepting chiefs or influential rebels, should be retained. A Gwali chief, named Dakwani, had surrendered, and been sent prisoner to King William's Town: The troops, meanwhile, eXperienced little, if any, op position daring the destruction of: the crops and kraals. Colonel Michel was proceeding most industriously in the work throughout the valley of Lenya, whilst Lieutenant- Colonel Eyre, with his accustomed energy,' desolated the Keiskamma Hoek, in one part of which (the Nyurneya) the kraals and gardens were so numerous that he imagined :they had not been previously, disturbed. I lire a herd of cattle wns spied in the act of being driven off, but they wore quickly pursued; and 63 head were captured by the 'Fingues, with a few Cape Mounted Rifles and Levies, under Captain Griffith, supported by Lieutenant Gawler's company of the 73d, and a party of 12th Lancers under Lieutenant Durant, the enemy flying in every direction. An immense number of kraals were burned. These cattle were the personal, property of Sandilli, flying from (Monet Michele column in the Lenyti valley, Under these circumstances, the Kafir chiefs again had recourse to diplomacy; Sandilli, 13otman, - Xoxo ' Sonia, and Macomo holding a meeting on the 9th February, with the Gaika Commissioner Brownlee, and begging for a three days' truce, ostentibly •ifor 'the purposes of consultation, but in reality to save their corn and con coct further stratagenis The rogues were accompanied by about 200 Bars and two rebel Hottentots, one of 'whom leaned on his musket, scowling on - the British commissioner. San dilli said it was time there should be peace, but he pre ferred making it in the field; he would not go to a mili tary post. The 12th, 13th, and 14th of February.were accordingly given to them, at the 'end of which time they (but without Macomo) requested a further cessa tion of hostilities "until peace is established." Their delegates, Zama and Dadu, said, that “ when a child is in error, he is chastened by his father, who afterwards 'receives hint into faranr. Sandilli has erred, and the other chiefs had clOne wrong io supporting him:, the Governor has now punishCcl them, and they pray for peace." This humbug is too transparent. The chiefs positively refuse to surrender. : . Operations were accordingly resumed on the 15th. On the last day of the truce, the 14th February, ano ther officer was picked off, Dr. Davidson; 43d Light In fantry. "It appears that some waggons which were proceeding with an escort of s ale 43d Regiment from King William's Town to Colonel Eyre's division, in the Am icgri ut o o et l he a a s t , with supplies.' were attacked at night at Bailey's Grave, and after firing for several hours upon a u lt;p dh a ea rti w , , e2r ;c ri, ceeded in shooting Surgeon Davidson and three men of the 43d Regiment, One of the waggons, it appears, struck there and occasioned delay," We also, after the evacuation of Butterworth by the nd il e e i tha , oc C k o o l dp o r o e u iti t cytr E eid 3 c - . 7: 4 B i?sin e gic lic a ort, t la o s e of killed, and the pi ngo : , ibo n .... anclomaq fi to rs the nesr cage woman and children being tension sy sto , "` of depredation head •of.cattle taken.

The enemy are committing sad havoc at the deserted places. Various accounts confirm the statement that Maeotno has received a large accession of Tambookie warriors in the Water Kloef, and is deter mined to hold out as loug as he can, And it is said that the Hottentots, who ere kept on short commons by the Kafirs in their fastnesses, have lately been disposing of their guns to them in exchange for food. It is, how ever, difficult to obtain accurate information of what is doing at the enemy's camps. Town Journal, (From the Extra to the Graham's Feb. 24.) BY AUTHORITY.

I have this day concluded an amicable relationship with the Trans-Keian Chief Bokoo, and his son Mapassa, and their tribe; and I hereby prohibit any patrol, party of burghers, or others, from entering the territory of their people. This territory extends from the Wagon Drift over the Kei, up that river to its confluence with the T'Somo; thence up the left bank of this strer.m to the waggon drift;- thence in a line to Butterworth, and down the. waggon-road to, the Kei. Messengers have been sent to me by the Chief Krell to sue for peace. These I have dismissed, desiring them to tell Kreli that as he urged, aided, and abetted San dilli to go to war, exer ting that par amount aut h or i ty which all the Cis-Keitws acknowledge, I cannot ma k e peace with him until Sandilii and the Gaikas va ca t e th e Amatolas and cross the Kei. The messengers are like wise to inform him that the hostilities which I directed the British resident, Mr. Shaw, to suspend on the part of the Chiefs Fuku, Nonese, Ludidi, Ungagnini, Joi, and others, will be renewed the moment that a single act of aggression on the part of Kreli is perpetrated.

Tor till Tv.. and mire, tti -a • 0 14 , • 3 APRIL 7 1852. ...4 jar -General Somerset we have no intelligence beyond that incidentally afforded by Colonel Eyre's report. .The proceedings of these columns are producing a powerful effect upon the Kafir mind. The destruction of their crops, and so complete an invasion and military posses sion of their country, they have never before witnessed. All that is now apparently needed is firmness on the part of the Commander-in-Chief, and a somewhat ex tended liberality in his Excellency, by which he may rally round him a burgher force of 1,000 or 1,500 effec tive men. The approach of a force of this nature would produce a very material effect upon Kafirland, as we find that the enemy is already much dispirited. His appa rent penitence and plaintive messages cannot, howeve - r, at this moment be entertained; his expulsion from the Ainatola, - and complete submission to all the terms that may be imposed upon him, must now be accomplished, or fifteen months of war, the expenditure of nearly 2,000,0001. of treasure ; and the sacrifice of much valu able life, will all prove to have been in vain. • 'rite boundary of the country of the chief with.whom peace was made at the close of last month is now de fined. Messengers had also arrived from Kreli, who stated that a Boer commando had - been down upon them, and prevented them: discussing the Goverpor's terms. But they were sent back to say that in addition to the other conditions the Governor formerly named, he would now add, that Kreli should insist upon the Gaikas crossing the Kei, and that until they did so, he 'would neither make peace with Kreli nor Sandilli. It is added, that " the messengers have gone back without much comfort." Umhala had also sent in somewhat less than 100 head of cattle, which the governor ordered to be taken back, refusing to receive less than 200 at a time, much to the surprise of the messengers. The other friendly chiefs it is said, continue sending cattle belonging to hostile chiefs, which had been secreted among their people. We understand that large supplies of forage corn are about being thrown into Fort Brown, Fort Beaufort, and other posts. Our active commissary►general, Mr. de Smidt, is already making arrangements for transporting the supplies in question. We hope sincerely that this is the forerunner of an order from the Governor to give forage rations to the Burgher forces, in which case we continue to have assurances there will be a good muster, but failing such provision, his Excellency's command will become a dead letter. AUSTRALIAN GOLD MINES. The following is a private letter, brought by the ship Hero, a ddressed to Thomas Pewtress, Esq., Grace= chureh-street:— Australia Felix, Melbourne, 169, Great Bourke-street West, Dec. 6, 1851. My dear Sir,—The letters I had partly written to you and other friends soon after my arrival here I have laid aside, being tired of waiting for a post to England for want of sailors to man the ships, beside these letters were only calculated to mislead, as the face of things is completely changed through the discovery of gold, and it now, becomes difficult to conjecture what a day may bring forth. When I arrived in Adelaide in July , the subject of gold mines at the Bathurst Ranges, Syd ney, was engrossing the attention of all classes, so that when our ship left we were filled with passengers to Melbourne, on their way to Sydney. On my arrival here in August I found that many inhe,bitanta had left for the Turon. Immediately Upon my landing, Alfred was sought after and engaged by an engineer of this place, and James soon atter entered the services of a merchant, with a good salary to begin with. I had de termined not to engage in any mercantile pursuits on my own account for at least twelve months, and was anxious that my sons should not remain idle. Six weeks had scarcely passed over before startling news from Bal larat came to Melbourne of the extraordinary quantities of gold being found there. These tidings set the city together by the oars, and in the course of a fortnight seven or eight thousands quitted their homes and employ ment here for the gold fields. It was an animating sigh to see men of all grades—doctors, lawyers, merchants,t t ra desmen, mechanics, labourers loading up horse and bullock drays, and pressing on to Ballarat. Alfred soon joined a party of three, the son and nephew of a merchant and shipowner ,here, and followed in the cavalcade; at the end of three weeks he reported he was doing much better than at engineering, and that he should, devote two years to the gold mites, unless he should make a fortune before that time. Being anxious to see his position; ind advise with him on Thursday morning, .23c1 Oct., I left my houie "Six o'clock for Ballarat,l distance to walk of 90 miles. My first stage was to Bacchus' Marsh Inn,'3B- mites, where I artiVed rather tired at 9 o'clock. I had passed through a beau- tiful country thus far—one meadow, if so it may be called ten miles in circumference, skirted with trees, rag , level as a bowling green, fresh and verdant, having a - eight tonvelltrltheea lunette *4ol:glees ; two-vaitepa;' romantic and beautiful, with terraces, slopes, ravines, and waterfalls, which if near London would be turned to good account in magnificent public gardens. Bacchus Marsh is a rich boggy soil, containing many thousands of acres, bounded with high land of regular height, and trees upon the slopes. Lady Franklin owns a large portion of this fertile marsh. I left the marsh about nine on Friday morning, and to save a distance I took a bye-road, which brought me upon the Pentland Hills, which at this season of the year are covered with most beautiful verdant pasturage, of various hues and shades.. These bills rise one above the other for twenty miles. From these hills, until I reached the Forests of Bailees, I had the most splendid views of country I ever beheld, not to be surpassed by anything I saw in the Peak of Derbyshire. My allotted distance to walk carried me to 'where there was no inn, street, or dwelling, and for the first time I bushed it in pure style. I lighted iafire about seven in the evening ; and made rayselt some tea— (by the bye I bad done so two or three times before in the course of the day). I made a mimi of boughs, and a bed of dry leaves, and laid down and slept in peace tid daylight, when I proceeded on my journey, and arrived at the gold diggings on Saturday, three o'clock, amidst thousands of tents of various styles of architecture, and the din of noise , from the rocking of near two thousand cradles. It was a busy scene, yet t h e greatest order prevailed. On Sunday I attended service morning and evening, at the Commissioner's tent, Goldent Point. I found Alfred delighted with a bush life, and with the em ployment of gold digging. One of his party was gone to Mount Alexander, about sixty-five miles off, with de putations from other companies to explore and ascertain if rumours afloat respecting the diggings there were correct. On Tuesday noon intelligence arrived that at Alexander they were reckoning their day'a work by pounds instead of ounces. Preparations were soon made to obey this route, and by eight on Tuesday morning my sun's party, with about six other parties, had their toots packed up and put on drays, and at ton o'clock we were on our way to Alexander. Our road lay through a delightful part of the country, where many of the most opulent squatters had fixed their stations. The first ob ject that interested me was an extensive lake, or as it is called here, lagoon; we came upon it after ascending a high hill, this lake forming a part of tho table-land of this elevated ground. The lake is bounded by a very regular sloping bank, rising about thirty feet from the lake, and is skirted with trees regularly all round, mea suring eleven miles and a half in circumference. The next day we came to a very lofty mountain, around which our drays had to pass, rising 4,000 feet, i. e. above the level of the sea. Tired as we wore, about a dozen of our party must needs ascend this commanding obeerva tory. I was amply repaid for all my labour in climbing this steep, for this eminence and the clear atmosphere in this country afforded me one of the most beautiful landscape views I ever beheld. We amused ourselves in our ascent with starting from their resting places huge masses of rock, some a half-ton weight; these we moved with levers, and hurled them down the stoop, of above half a mile in extent, cutting trees asunder without up- Farently checking their course in the slightest degree; in one instance a piece parted from one of these largest sized stones, and from its great velocity the piece was hurled into the air a considerable height. On Friday morning early we entered the ranges of Mount Alex ander; these ranges are formed of clusters of hills, of which Primrose-hill, _ London,. and Windmill-bill, Gravesend, may be a fair representation as to size and height; but here these hills are thickly wooded. There is a great similarity in the thousands of these hills, which are spread over a space of sixteen miles by nine wide, and I have observed that the shrubs and trees are fair indications of the nature of the soil, so that where you find stringy bark, red and blue gum brake (very similar to that in England), aed the acae t there is sure to be quartz and gold; and I cannorsof 50 1 the slightest hesitation in saying that in my 0 .

The gold was weight.this has beeri far ex ece3ad S i nce , On Wednesday I Went to Quartz-hilla ~bout three miles through the ranges, where specimens of considerable size and beauty had been obtained, and a party had been working there in breaking up the quartz, yielding them in a few weeks upwards of a 100Ibs. weight of gold, and this I can re a dily believe, for they had now left he place, and their but to any o ne, and I found , in IO? log over their leavings, fifty eight pieces of quartz, all more or less c h arge d with gold, and in break in g other pieces had obtained sloz. of gold.- dust. These solid layers of quartz at this hill Confirm 'me in my theory respecting the origi nal e state o f gold. Quartz unquestionably is the natural matrix of this raetel—that in 'the range where I had been digging and washing at Ballarat and Alexander, the soil was invariably mixed with abund ance of small pieces of quartz, with occasionally large pieces; but gold has rarely been found in the quartz at these places, but in small nuggets in company with the small pieces of quartz; and I believe that these gold hills are the result of the upheavings from subterraneous fire and intense heat, which has released the gold from the quartz, and cast it into nuggets of endless variety of size and shape. Ido not think that the quartz and gold has been belched out of the bowels of the earth, as there are no appearances of depressions on the summits of these hills or any appearance of craters; but at the quartz bill I em led to infer from the gold being still in the quartz, and evidently in undisturbed, unbroken strata, that the heat in this small spot was not sufficiently intense to release the gold from the original state. The quartz and slate recksinvariably lay north and south, and I have never seen a deviation from this. These are crude and hasty conclusions; but until further data can be obtained and weighed by men of geological know ledge, calculated to determine the question in accordance with known laws, I shall be inclined to adhere to this theory, and equally so to give it up. I did well enough at Alexander to have induced me to stay, but having, as I thought, a favourable opportu nity of going to Melbourne with a gentleman of a neigh bouring tent, who was about to drive down and take me with him; but he lost his horse in the night, so we had to walk; and on my reaching home on Monday, the 10th of November, I found that the Governor had given me an appointment in the Legislative Council Chamber, which commenced its first sitting on the 11th. But for this I might have continued _my gold digging labours for some time, an employment which, in my opinion, holds out as fair prospects of making money as any that I know of in this country or any other, and with bat as little risk. Some have done wonders—a baker by the name of Messiter, in a month, had accumulated 2,000/. worth of gold to his share. Five sailors came to Quartz hill while I was hunting for specimens, and seeing they were not likely to do much there, asked me if I thought they could work without a licence, as they had not 30s. between them. I told them to try a hole, and get a little gold and take it to the Commissioner's tent, and get a licence. They went off, and borrowing a spade of one and a pick of another, by night the next day they had obtained silbs. weight of gold, 401. worth a piece, and they continued this several days. There ore many such cases as these, indeed there need be to make up the quantity of two tons of gold, 'or nearly so, last week brought into the city, Many are doing but very little, but my firm impression is that no man need fear but that with a tin dish and spade of making an ounce a day, at least this I reckon to be the smallest quantity of a per son that will work. James and John are preparing to join their brother Alfred.

I hear, and I believe it, that there are many hundreds of men about to return to Melbourne at Christmas, that will share upwards of a thousand pounds a man. Some are spending it already very freely. Many hun dreds are buying the finest horses they can get, and give a high price, 501. or 601. One man has given to a jeweller sufficient gold to make a pair of stirrups. Now, I do not mention this because I admire this man's ambition to be famed for folly, but as a fact which must show that gold is gathered by some in great abundance with comparatively little labour. I have rather hastily, to save the Hero, given you a full account of my campaign to the auriferous fields, i n order that you may have some idea of the physical ap pearances of this, my adopted country, and of the dis covery of the first mineral mines in this colony; and I can have no hesitation in affirming, that at present the colony that bears the name of our Gracious Queen Victoria contains by far the richest gold mines in all the world. I have thus given you a faithful description of the state of things here with respect to the discovery of gold, but there is another side of the picture which I would, if I had time, set forth; but let me express my earnest, anxious hope, that no one into whose hands this letter May fall will think of iavink a position of com fort, with prospects of maintaining it; for if they do I feel persuaded that the privations and trials of a voyage, and the difficulties attending every new comer, will con ',strain them bitterly to regret it. For, depend upon it, a marl needs all the support to his mind which a consci ousness of the prudence of the step he has taken in leaving England is calculated to inspire : he will indeed need this to cheer and encourage him under difficulties of no ordinary kind. But I must express my honest conviction that a man, especially a young man, cannot fail of success if he is honest, sober, and industrious. In England the affairs of men have their tides as well as here; but they aro mostly neap tides with you, but with us spring tides, so that should a man get stuck ashore here he has not long to wait before he is sure to get afloat again. The employment in the gold fields is making every article very dear, especklly labour. All the employees under Government receive fifty per cent. upon their pay in consequence, but we hear of many about to leave after the 31st instant for the diggings. About one-half of the police have given notice to do so. The Executive Go vernment is thus being daily weakened, instead of being, as it needs just at this time, strengthened. There is a very momentous question for decision be tween the gold diggers and the Government next month. Hitherto every man has had to pay a licence-fee of 30s. monthly to the territorial fund before he could search for gold. Notice has been given, that in January it is to be 60s. It is rumoured that the diggers demur at this; and lam not at ease in my mind as to the result. The appropriation of the territorial fund is at present a great bone of contention between the Executive and the people; and, in these times, it is exceedingly diffi cult for the Government here to deal with such a levia than as 10,000 armed men at Alexander, which laugh at the shaking of a spear. We need an electric tele graph to Downing-street. • I am, my dear Sir, yours very sincerely, EDWARD B. ARNOLD. RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS.

GENERALTFIEATRICALFUND DIA ;1f The seventh anniversary festival o f thi s exca l e -7 ff Z t - r2 and non-exclusive institution took place on Monds the London. Tavern. Mr. Macready vies to hove talft the chair, but was prevented by family circuinstance# c A and Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton supplied his place, supported -by Mr. C. Dickens, Mr. Webster, Mr. Buckstone, Mr. P. Stone, Captain Chappell, Mr. Mark Lemon, Mr. Will s , &c. The usual loyal toasts having been done due justice to, on the part of the chairman and of the company, Sir E. B. LITTON proposed the toast of the even ing—" Prosperity to this Society"—now in the seventh year of its existence. He congratulated them on the success which bad attended their efforts, and attributed that success to the recogn h i i t e i h honoad for of two principles, on which every society which its object the benefit of the professors of any art ought to be founded. The first of these was the principle that every such society ought to embrace the objects of a a mutual benefit association ' • and the second wag, the recognition of the fact that art was something imperishable and universal, and was not confined to any particular building of brick and mortar in which it might be exercised. The peculiar feature and merit of the as sociation the members and friends of which he was addressing was, that they recognised these principles, that they had nothing to do with associations con nected with certain buildings, endowed with exclu sive patents and privileges it was true, but from which the drama had long gone forth. The General Theatrical Fund was established not for the benefit of a professional party, but for the professors of an art, and the society must therefore endure, because it had attached itself to two things which would endure after the Pyramids were dust—art and misfortune. The toast was drunk with the usual honour. Mr. BIICKSTONE, the honorary treasurer, in the course of an amusing speech, in which he described the progress of the fund by personifying the latter and giving an autobiographical account of its life and adventures, adverted to the balance in hand, and announced a prospective legacy from Mr. T. P. Cooke of 1,000/. Mr. JOHN FORSTER then proposed " The health of the Chairman," in highly eulogistic terms. The CHAIRMAN returned thanks, and proposed " The Health of Mr. Charles Dickens." The toast was drunk with nine times nine. Mr. C. Dream% returned thanks, and expressed his great gratification at the manner in which his name had been received. With regard to the General Theatrical Fund, he had been so long connected with it, as one of the trustees, that he felt a difficulty in saying anything new respecting it. In fact, the elo quence of Mr, Buckstone—and the excellence of the management, as evinced by the accounts of the cur rent year, left him nothing to say. If he could only that the managers of the society had no sympathy with those struggling in the lower branches of the profession—if he could only say that their treasurer was a stern, austere man—(Laughter)—altogether a hard-favoured person, severe of countenance, and ex ceedingly difficult to approach—or if he could only say that the institution was an exclusive one, and re quired from the applicants for relief that they should have performed something next to im possible, such as holding an engagement two or three years in the moon, or appearing in Sir Edward Bulwer's Money 200 or 300 nights—if he could say that any portion of the profession, whether dancers or singers, were excluded from the benefits of the institution, he could make to them a speech more oratorically powerful than he then had the power to do from the want of such themes to de scant upon.—(Cheers.) Indeed, he was so utterly at a loss for a grievance on which to speak, that he had had thoughts of abandoning their festivals, and taking to those banquets sometimes held in the neighbour hood of Freemasons' Hall, where there were plenty of such grievances ready made to his hand.—(Cheers.) He had no wish, however, to indulge in any unkind allusions to the other theatrical funds, as he had many kind friends amongst the members, but he only wished to suggest the necessity of a change in their constitution with changing times ; and he thought, looking at their position with regard to this fund, no thing could do both parties so much good as a happy marriage. —(Cheers and laughter.) In conclusion, he could only say, in his official capacity, that he was extremely gratified to find the fund so well supported, and the more especially by the ladies of the profession —(Cheers)—and he could only assure them, on be half of himself and brother trustees, that any little increased aid they might voluntarily contribute to their funds, would ever be publicly acknowledged and gratefully received.—(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed successively " The . Healths of Mr. W..ehiter, 'topuglas Jerrold,,,* Mr. T. P. Coeke."" el- ...A Mr. T. P. COOKE returned thanks, and assured the company that he had not intended the fact of his having made such a bequest by his will to have been known, excepting by his friends Mr. Cullenford and Mr. Buckstone ; but as the latter gentleman had made it known, he trusted it might do good by inducing those who had the means, after providing for those nearest and dearest to them, to follow his example. Among the subscriptions announced in addition to that of her Majesty of 1001., were those of the Chair man, 10/. ; the Duke of Devonshire, 10 guineas ; Mr. Webster, 5 guineas; Earl Fitzhardinge, 5 guineas; Dr. Hastings, 5 guineas; Mr. Montague, 5 guineas; Mr. Lumley, 5 guineas ; Mr. Charles Kean, 5 gui neas; Mr. Phelps, 5 guineas; Mrs. Theodore Martin (late Miss Faucit), 5 guineas; Mr. Toole, 3 guineas; Madame Celeste, 5 guineas ; Mr. T. P. Cooke, 3 guineas, &C. :Hoskins, Th e a ttention of the Stewards, Messrs. Worrell, Howe, Hughes &c., was beyond all praise. If their supporters lacked anything it must have been their own faults, for the creature comforts were provided in abundance. The musical arrangements, under the management of Mr. Tully, were all that could be desired. The vocalists included the two Misses Pyne, Miss Horton, and Miss Ransford, Mr. D. King, Mr. Genge, Ransford, Mr. Horncastle, Mr. Fielding, Mr. Mor gan, Mr. Walker, Mr. Binge, Mr. Ran s f or d , Lawler, and Mr. Jones; while as instrumentalists the Distins appeared, and afterwards the Hungarian musical company. Mr. Toole officiated as toast master. WHISTON AND THE DE A N CHAPTER OF ROCHE STER. THE A RNDEV. CHRA. r a . p ß pe a a r r o e n d SPECIAL V I SITATION OF THE BISHOP OF ROCHESTER.

The next year the son of the head master was added; the following year scholar on the 1839, 40, and 41, there appeared no scholar. What had become of the money provided by the founder for that charity d u ring those years? The Dean and Chapter refused to give him information, and therefore be believed he was justified and correct in stating that it had been added fo the augmentation of purposes never contemplated by the founder. In the course of this por tion of the defence the reverend gentleman proceeded to refer to the proceedings in connexion with similar abuses iu other cathedral foundations; but was stopped by the Court, who intimated that the only inquiry was, whether the statements were false and libellous as against the Dean end Chapter of Rochester. Mr. Whiston then proceeded to dissect the various remaining portions of the pamphlet which the Dean and Chapter alleged were libellous, and upon which they relied in justification of their dismissal of him as head master, and to state his reasons and the evidence upon which he made those statements, all of which he contended were true; but if not so the Dean and Chapter had the opportunity of proving the contrary, which they had not. He then went through that portion of his defence with respect to the charge assigned of gravins delitum; at the conclusion of which, near five o'clock, the Court intimated they should adjourn. Mr. WHISTON then said he would be ready to proceed with the other branches of his defence at the sittings of their Lordships to-morrow (this day). The Bishop of ROCHESTER adjourned the further hearing until a quarter to ten this day. gntorftohcitelhulceai gems of cu= Scot"e of 5 1 "sg r i p i ci s tl-4- df : ee e o e ,,,e : r i i i n in b:d w in ith the li se unl 1117sspee fi n g u sg re ng by its peaceful life of rural t fr i o sh m A n D t o h A v e M e novel e b G n e a lt o r f l i n E t g h m e t EheOtFit author le A o l o f; 6 , 5 ' , SApGadlAma;Ge—sr7Tnemhteh ea Lg n reai e fe w toef : p i: thanas Maitland, i tth aetx " i sf b at ei i smn d bag s osaru f tloti a osuot i tyn r hebdt9 t obs o opteokr a ,re. c ys:oo.n: 7 " . e et i l in i e Ramsay and first time in fiction and inulthe the autho r ' s h ap piest innvgesna vein. the hamlets and sequestered Scotland,h'pklui vo lumesanlardgniateriysne all bo old B m u a r n n s , wv. who now:Avge si c rai h ept a ssp n nera,r namef 0 r . people who are hit off in —An amended return was yester day characters.ureclly be ranged amen: This work will sit.s . rS l : oth of October last, there and others.
