He was one of those who sympathised with the poor, who were oftentimes deprived of their habitations by railway companies; but in the pre sent instance he looked upon the railway company as a friend to the institution. He sincerely hoped the railway in question would take away their pre sent ill-situated building, and that to the compen sation from the railway and the assistance from the public they would be able to raise such an institu tian as would be of service to the public and r ai honour to the country at large. The toast was honoured with all enthusiasm. Mr. GURNEY FRY proposed, •in complimentary terms, " The health of the Lord Mayor," who briefly but cordially expressed his aeknowledg ments. The toast of "The Corporation of the City c s f London" was responded to by Mr. Alderman :And Sheriff Gibbons—that of " The Medical Staff" w as acknowledged by Mr. Hutchinson. Mr. A. CHAPMAN then propoSed " The gentlemen of the Jewish persuasion, which were amongst the MOF,b ardent supporters of the Metropolitan Free Hospi tal." (Hear, hear.) Mr. DEFRIES, in responding to the toast, said that out of the 84,747 persons who had been relieved at the hospital, 24,000 of them were of the Jewish per suasion. (Hear, hear.) This fact showed what claims the institution had upon the liberal support of the Jewish population of the city ; indeed of the country generally. Other toasts having been duly honoured, The Secretary read a list of subscriptions, which amounted to upwards of £3,000. The evening was spent in a most agreeable man ner--the vocalists, Miss Ellen Lyra, Miss Julia Elton, Mr. Dawson, Mr. J. Burgess, Mr. J. Hatton, and Mr. E. Gray (the director oLthe corps), mate, rially assisting. The dinner, which was most efficiently seEved, was in every respect a credit to the establishment: The Corporation Medal of the Princess of Wales. The Royal reception committee of the Corpora.. tion of London have presented a report of the Court of Common Council of the steps taken by them for the execution of a medal, commemorative of the public entry into the City of her Royal Highness the Princess Alexandra of Denmark. From that it appears that they entered into a contract with Mr. Joseph S. Wyon for 350 copies of the medal in question in bronze, at a cost of £5OO, the under standing being that the design and dies were to be the property of the corporation. The medal was accord ingly executed, and the committee reported that as a work of art it had met with general approbation. A case containing two of the medals was afterwards forwarded by the Remembrancer through the late Colonel Phipps, in compliance with her Majesty's expressed wish, and a deputation from the Royal reception committee attended at Marl borough House and presented copies to the Prince and Princess of Wales. The same deputation sent copies of the medal through his excellency the French Ambassador to the Emperor Napoleon, and others were forwarded to the King and Queen of Denmark, and to the distinguished persons in im mediate attendance upon the Princess Alexandra upon her public entry into London. Copies were also sent to all or most of the great public libraries, museums, and schools of art throughout the country and in Paris, as was also one to each of the members of the Common Council and the principal officers of the corporation. With that it was supposed that there was an end of the matter, but it having after wards come to the knowledge of the committee that Mr. Wyon had sent a circular to the members of the Commcn Council informing them that he pur posed publishing small medals, identical with the one in question, and also _with those struck at the expense of the corporation to commemorate the visits to the City of the Emperor and Empress of the French and of the, King of Sardinia, and of which the corporation had purchased the copyright, they caused a letter to be at once addressed to Mr. Wvon, desiring: him mi. to is.rnA a.nv of Riieh m, lakx and also requesting him to attend the committee, which he did. He then, according to the report of the committee, " acknowledged that through igno rance or inadvertence he had pirated the dies en graved by Messrs. Wyon on the above occasions, and which were the corporation's property." They thereupon resolved that he be required forthwith to make a return, in writing, to them of the num ber of medals struck from each of the small dies and of the number sold, and to whom, and to deliver at once to the town clerk the dies in question and all the medals in his possession. They also required that he should use his best endeavours to obtain the return of the medals issued from the persons who had been supplied with them. In reply, Mr. Wyon promptly returned the six dies he had of the miniature medals, and all the copies he had re maining, adding that he had sold nine copies of that of the Princess of Wales. In their report of the transaction to the Common Council, the committee state that Mr. Wyon had since deposited in the hands of the town clerk the several dies and the small medals in his possession, and had, as far lay in his power, complied with the requirements of the committee. The matter, however, did not quite end there, for on Thursday last Mr. Joseph:. Wyon and Mr. Alfred Benjamin Wyon attended personally before the Court of Common Council, and presented a memorial for permission to publish miniature copies of the three medals in question ; or, if the Court should think fit to retain the dies and medals, to award them such compensation in respect of them as might appear just. The request gave rise to adiscussion, and in the result the Common Council refused to comply with either alternative.

PROVIDENCE ROW NIGHT REFUGE, FOR HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN, 14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.G. Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager, &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, refusedadmitta,nce, andhave to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and .to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of. at least £3,000 more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to giAre shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome, and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will be offered in your behalf.

How to provide healthy and comfortable dwellings for the population of London is the most momentous and the most pressing social problem of our time. From the na tural growth of population, new dwelling-house accommo dation will, during the next ten years, be required for 600,000 people. During last year alone, according to the statement of the Earl of Shaftesbury, 3,500 houses were so destroyed, dispossessing 20,000 people of their homes. Bills for authorising metropolitan improvement now await ,the judgment of the Legislature, which will, if passed into law, involve the demolition of 16,000 houses and the dis possession of their homes of not less than 100,000 people. The condition of very much of the existing house pro perty (chiefly that occupied by the labouring classes)within the metropolitan district properly so called, is so bad that our sanitary commissioners are seeking authority from the Legislature for the condemnation and destruction of thou sands of houses, which are nothing better than haunts of misery, nests 'of pestilence, and fountains of wide-spreading demoralisation. Here, then, are accumulative evils to remedy, and accu mulative necessities to supply. The remedy forlhese evils, and the supply of those necessities, will be found in the provision, on the most extensive scale and at the most rapid rate possible, of suitable dwelling house accommoda tion for all classes of the community. To take advantage of a field of enterprise thus vast, and to minister to requirements thus urgent, are the general objects for which the Suburban Village and General D wel ist and the lings Company (Limited) has y be t e h n e e p s h ta il b a l n is t h h e ro d p . enterprise.

The Earl of Dunraven was created a Knight of St : Patrick yesterday at a Chapter held for the purpose in St. Patrick's-hall, Dublin Castle; the Lord-Lieutenant presiding as Grand Master of the Order. Lord Dunraven is the second Catholic Knight of St, Patrick, the Earl of Fingal being the first. It is a proof of the growing liberality of the times in which we live that no objection has been made by the Protestant press to making the Order of St. Patrick a mixed fellowship, although the new knight is a convert to the Church of Rome; nor did he object to repeat the words of the oath after the Archbishop of Dublin. Lord Dunraven, however, does not object to the mixed system, for he is a member of the National Board of Education. Fenianism will soon be at an end. The delusion seems to have already spent its force, and its sources are being rapidly dried up. Considering the exten sive preparations of arms and ammunition, and the extent to which the conspiracy was ramified, it cannot be said to have died hard. The Fenians made and spoke pikes, but did not use them. Save an assassination or two, the movement has been re markably bloodless, and the Government seems likely to extinguish the treason completely without the loss of a single life, without shedding a drop of blood. When the fever of political fanaticism sub sides, the dupes will probably look back with astonishment at their infatuation ; and as there is a general feeling among the Fenians that this was the last opportunity for Ireland—that she must be liberated now or never, the probability is that Go vernment will never again be troubled with a move ment of the kind. There is some vague apprehen sion among the people here that there will be a Fenian rising on Patrick's Day, and if not then, never. If next Saturday passes over in peace then we may dismiss all fear, especially as the American Fenians threaten to commence the war against England on the Pacific Ocean. A correspondent of the Belfast News-Letter states that—" The recent arrests in Cookstown have brought consternation into the Fenian camp. Some people believe that the police have arrested the head Centre of the Cookstown district, which embraces the towns of Coagh, Moneymore, Magherafelt, Cookstown, and their vicinities. In the circle it is believed there are 800 Fenians, and it is expected that very shortly a few of this number will be placed out of harm's way.' It is affirmed that rifles have been distributed, and it is well known that night drillings have been very common." The subject of Fenianism was alluded to by Baron Deasy yesterday when opening the Kilkenny abbIZOS. 2Yicic etas 11 1 .3 ..2 there, and all the rest are for trifling offences. He said the conspiracy had inflicted great evils on the country by causing the withdrawal of capital and producing a sense of insecurity, which prevented employment and materially affected trade and com merce. He trusted, however, that the people would soon see the folly and criminality of the conspiracy in which those who are sheltered on the other side of the Atlantic urge on their dupes here to peril not only their liberties but their lives. In Roscommon, Mr. Justice Christian addressed the grand jury. He would not congratulate them on the state of the county. Nothing could look better on paper, for the calendar was light, but those statistics lose their value under the disturbing influence of political offences. It might be said hereafter, " Whatvalue is this ? We are told at the Spring Assizes, 1866, immediately after the Legislature had thought it necessary to adopt the most rigorous repressive measures, and even to suspend the Constitution." He should not therefore offer them any congratula tions on the social state of their county. He thought it would be prudent in him or others to suspend their judgment until better times arrived. The Chief Baron remarkedupon the absence of Fenian offences in the county of Kerry. He was not surprised that the farming class in that county kept aloof from the conspiracy. He had known them long and well ; they were a shrewd and quick-witted race, and they probably felt that if these designs had, for no matter how short a time, assumed even the appearance of success, they themselves would be the very first to suffer. No revolutionary attempt of a military character, whether coming from abroad or arising within the county, could be made with out the farming population being made the first victims. The first exigencies of such a movement would necessarily be to obtain supplies of food. The farmer's cattle, the farmer's sheep, the farmer's pigs, the farmer's butter, and the farmer's corn would be seized at once to feed the revolutionary forces, and how paid for? The farmer well knew he would not be paid in gold or in real money, but in Fenian bonds, and these he as well knew would be scarcely worth the value of the paper on which they were engraved. He was therefore not sur prised that no sympathy had been evoked by the conspirators among the farmers of the country, and he hoped it would long continue so. He was not called on to express an opinion as to the wisdom or propriety of the course taken, at any time, by the Government of the country, but since the Act had been passed by the three branches of the Legisla ture, conferring ample summary powers on the Ex ecutive, he might now express his belief that it was a wise and beneficent measure—not a measure of repression or of punishment, but a measure of mercy, as a means of deterring those who might otherwise involve themselves in a course of proceeding, of which ruin, and ruin only, could be the only result. . . It is creditable to the Conservative journals of Dublin that they express much gratification at the withdrawal of the petition against the return of the Chief Secretary. The Daily Express of this morn ing remarks that :—" Owing to the number of elec tion petitions presented to the House of Commons, it was found that that against the return of Messrs. Fortescue and Kennedy could not be disposed of until some time in the month of June, so that for probably three months Mr. Fortescue would have been ineligible for election, not only for the county of Louth, but for any other county or borough. The amount of inconvenience which the Govern ment would have been put to by his exclusion for so long a time from the House cannot be exagge rated ; and, in consequence, those interested in the petition, with an abnegation of self for which they deserve the highest praise, have consented to its withdrawal, the effect of which will be that a writ for a new election can issue forthwith. It was un fortunate that the petition could not have been withdrawn as against Mr. Fortescue, so that it might be tried as against his colleague." A number of Roman Caiholic graduates of the Queen's University have got up a memorial to Lord Russell, protesting against the statements laid be fore him by the Queen's University deputation, and contending thA a man should not be refused his PRICE.... 4d.

The Cork Examiner of this evening says it has good reason for knowing that Stephens, the Head Centre, has recently left Ireland for America. Before his departure be advised the Brotherhood to devote themselves for the present more to peaceful pursuits than they have been doing for some time. His wife is at present in Cork, and purposes leaving by the Inman steamer to-morrow. Royal Literary Fund. The annual general meeting of this corporation took place yesterday at their chambers, Adelphi terrace, for the purpose of electing officers and transacting other business. Among those present were Earl Stanhope, the president; Lord Houghton, Anthony Trollope, Esq., Rev. Charles Merivale, RD., chaplain of the House of Commons, Dr. Roget, Messrs. Gruneisen, Butterworth, Godwin, &c. Earl Stanhope presided. The minutes of the previous meeting having been read and confirmed, The TREASURER'S report was read, from which it appeared that the permanent fund, which at the date of the last report amounted to £25,500, had produced in dividends during the past year the sum of £765. Since the payment of the July dividend the sum of £3OO stock had been purchased. The, permanent fund, therefore, now amounts to £25,800, producing an annual dividend of £774. The stock of the Newton property consists of £8,167 15s. 10d., in the Three per Cents. Reduced, producing an annual dividend of £245.05. Bd. The Newton estate at Whitechapel had produced during the year the sum of £203 in rents. By the deaths of Viscount Palmerston, Professor Whewell, and others, vacancies had occurred in the executive, which the meeting was recommended to fill up. The grants to authors during the year amounted to £1,682; of these there were 28 males, 24 females, and 13 widows. The report was received. On the motion of the noble PRESIDENT, votes of thanks were successively and unanimously passed to the registrars, treasurers, and auditors. Major Gruneisen and Mr. Butterworth were then appointed scrutineers to examine the votes for the new officers. As there was no opposition to the names proposed by the committee, their labours did not occupy two minutes, and the new list was una nimously adopted. Thanks were then voted to the three honorary officers of the corporation, accompanied with a re quest that they would continue their valuable ser vices. Thanks were also given to the secretary and scrutineers. The CHAIRMAN then said that no duty remained for him on this occasion except to announce that they might look forward with confidence to a successful anniversary dinner. The services of Lord Houghton had been secured as chairman. The dinner would take place on the 2d of May next, and on that occa sion he believed the long-established credit of the society would be well maintained. On the motion of Mr. TROLLOPE, seconded by Mr. GODWIN, the thanks of the meeting were unani mously accorded to the noble president. The CHAIRMAN thanked the meeting, and ex pressed a hope that as long as he was connected with the society he would enjoy their esteem and regard. The proceedings then terminated. Metropolitan Free Hospital. The 13th anniversary of this valuable institution, which is satiated in Devonshire-square, Bishops sate, City, wt., ,c1.t.1,...%8,1 l cv don Tavern, under the auspices of the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor, who was supported by about 200 gentlemen, many of whom were of the Jewish religion. It may here be noticed that this hospital is open to the sick poor of all countries, without the trouble some and too often injurious impediment of a gover nor's letter of recommendation, and the daily at tendance of patients last year amounted in the ag gregate to 84,747. It is situated close to the most destitute and populous districts of the metropolis, viz., Bishopsgate, Spitalfields, Shoreditch, Bethnal green, 'Whitechapel, Sze.—places whose names are almost synonymous with poverty and disease, and where are generated those unhealthy influences, arising from overcrowded and ill-provided habita tions, which render the advantages offered by such a charity as this a paramount necessity to the sur rounding population. It is wholly dependent on voluntary contributions, and at the present moment urgently requires assistance. Amongst the gentlemen present were—Alderman and Sheriff Gibbons, Mr. Gurney Fry, Rev. W. Finch, Mr. C. IV. Randling, ;Mr. A. Chapman, Mr. J. Dakin, Mr. J. Hale, Mr. Joseph Fry, Mr. Gra ham (the high bailiff of Southwark), Mr. H. E. Murrell, Mr. J. 11. Evans, &c. The cloth having been removed, the usual loyal toasts were duly honoured, Mr. WRAGG returning thanks for the volunteers. The LORD MAYOR then proposed the toast of the evening, namely, " Prosperity to the Free Hospi tal," and, in doing so, said that when his friend on his right, Mr. Gurney Fry, did him the honour to ask him to preside on the present occasion, he felt, notwithstanding the varied duties which he had to perform in his character of chief magis trate of that city, an irresistible desire to be pre sent at that festival and to preside at it, and the consequence was his presence there that evening. (Hear, hear.) There was a charm about the word " free ;" and if there was one institution in this country more than another which ought never to be anything else than free, it was an hos pital. (Hear, hear.) The freedom of the hospital was great 'when the poor, sick, helpless creature, upon presenting his unhappy credentials, was re ceived because of the state of his health. But the freedom to which he was now alluding was of that broad character in this institution which invited all mankind in the name of brethren. (Hear, hear.) To the honour and glory of the friends of the insti tution under consideration they not alone pro claimed freedom to all who came, but they re spected the peculiar views and ceremonials of all religions, and they aided and encouraged them. (Hear, hear.) He therefore thought that a cosmo politan institution like the Metropolitan Free Hos pital, situated as it was in that great city in the very heart of poverty, was entitled to the warmest sym pathy and support. Some few days since he con sbildi s e h r e m d e i n t t t . o e e e h e i s n d f e u s t s y e d t o h e p at his visit. He certainly saw there all the order, f everything that sit to comfort, and cleanline ss f a e y l t a s somewhat surprised s t e a d : buto those t him —in fact, crea t ure s who sought re 7 could add to the care andliecf o t m he fo r r e t • that the institution was quite inadequate in size to its requirements, ande might thata take large the po liberty rtion o of money s oney was s pent, when, if h ay ing so, it might have been dispensed with a larger amo unt of eventual good. He did not wish to be m isunderstood on this point, and he wish e d t o say that he found no fault with the institution. (Hear.) If there was any fault it rested with the public. (Cheers.) At the hospital there were 20 beds with, he must say, an admirable staff, and he had the good fortune to meet there one of its most industrious medical attendants, who fully endorsed his opinion as to the incapacity of the building. The staff was sufficient in itself for all purposes, but this after all was but one side of the history of the hospital. The report stated that during the year 84,747 patients were relieved. After such an announcement further comment would be waste of time. Who in that great city would re fuse to support an institution of this kind, situated as it was in a densely-populated neighbourhood—in
