His friends in England will have the consolation of learning that Mr. Merewether met his fate in the dis charge of a humane and gallant attempt to save human life, and to mitigate human suffering ; and we would take the liberty of suggesting that, as a tribute to virtue and gallantry, a monument should mark his final resting place. Subscriptions for this purpose, we have nut a doubt, would instantly be filled up. dente. In his own opinion, if they thought that Rodgers deliberately provided himself with the knife with a deadly intent, then the verdict should be murder; but if they thought that in consequence of the language made use of by the deceased to Mrs. Rodgers, and his wife crying to him for protection, the prisoner snatched up the knife in the heat of passion and ran out of the house with it, then he would be guilty of manslaughter only The Coroner, in the course of one or two observations, regretted the frequent occurrence of cases of stabbing in this neighbourhood. The room ha►ing been cleared, the Jury consulted to gether for a few minutes, and then returned a ►erdict of Manslaughter, whereon the Coroner issued his war rant for the conveyance of Rodgers to York, to take his trial at the ensuing Assizes.

On Wednesday, an inquest was held before Thomas Badger, Esq., at the Town Hall, on view of the body of William Stringer, aged 25 years, a carter, residing in Red-croft. It will be seen from the subjoined evi dence that on Sunday forenoon, the deceased, and a woman named Rodgers, were quarrelling in Red-croft, both parties using a good deal of abusive language. After they had been quarrelling for some time, the woman struck the deceased upon the face, and he in consequence knocked her down. Henry Rodgers, a shoemaker, residing also in Red-croft, afterwards came LONDON WELSH PROVIDENT SOCIETY.

On Tuesday evening last the members and friends of the above Society assembled at the Vestry of the Welsh Chapel in Jewin-crescent, for the purpose of testifying their respect for their Honorary Secretary, Mr. Hugh Owen, and the value which they attached to his gratuitous services, by presenting him with a piece of plate, valued at 14 guineas. The number collected of both sexes was about 200, and after partaking of tea, the President of the Society, Grif fith Davies, Esq., F.R.S. was called to the Chair. The CHAIRMAN opened the business of the evenit.g by acquainting the meeting with the specific object which bad called them together, and spoke very highly of the valu able services of their Secretary. The object of the So ciety was, that persons might make provision for them selves or for their families. A person might provide himself an annuity in old age, might provide a sum to be paid at his death, might mae provision for children on attaining a certain age, and might also make provision against sickness. He thought that all present would agree that those objects were praiseworthy ; they were encouraged in Holy Writ, and he considered the spirit which they inculcated valuable in a national point of view ; the spirit of independence was, perhaps, the cor ner-stone of national prosperity, He thought that 'wherever a person, after having done all in his power to gain an independent livelihood in this world, failed in so doing, the Scriptures commanded that to him charity should be exercised; but that it would be very much Lvi A c N ii U m F i f.

Sl MANAGE II' - F -The D e RI raised in the years 1826-7, for the relief of the distress exist ing in the manufacturing districts in England and Scotland, having a balance of that fund remaining in their banes, deem this a period far rendering such assistance as their meat's Rill permit to those districts where cotton, flax, wool, and silk are manufactured, rind where distress now prevails. The Committee think it right to express their wish and hope that in all places from whence applications are sent Local Committees will be formed to co-operate with this Board, and it might be right to state that these grants will be regulated by, and in proportion to, the means and amount raised in the neigh bourhocd. The Committee accordingly invite the Clergy, Magistracy, and Master Manufacturers, conjointly of the several towns and -villages in England and Scotland where distress prevails, to apply by letter, enclosing an account of the manufacturing population, the numbers employed and partly employed, with thei7 average earnings, and of those totally unemployed and destitute, together with a statement of the exertions that have been made locally to meet the pressing ne cessities of the distressed.

EXTRACTS FROM REVIEWS. " The editor has deserved well of his country and of the church of God for his present undertaking." " A very high mcted of praise is due to the pious and bene volent editor for haviog, at the expense of a large sacrifice of money as well as of tin le, aci-omplished an undertaking to which hitherto only the exerti.ms of an episcopal bench, and the ex penditure of national fun ds have bi en deemed adequate." " Sacred regard has b een paid to the moulds of thought and expression which our venerable translators had used."

Tilt: book, as has been already stated, is the result of very am ple and daily increasing experience in a class of diseases, whit. h, for some,' unaccountable reason, have been either altogether overlooked, or treated almost with indiffer ence, by the ord ;nary medical practitioner. The proverbial and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en couraged and arot tier I by this supineness, on the part of the regular surgeon. In order to obviate the pernicious effects sure to result fror i the practices of such pretenders, the authors have for a ca ,nsiderable time devoted themselves ex clusively to 2, eertair i class of diseases; of the necessity of so doing, they were fur ther convinced by feeling that tact in in vestigating the later ,t sources of many diseases, which arise from certain. secret • praetices, can only be acquired by an ex clusive and. undiviid ed attention to this department of medical practice. The not nberless instances daily occurring, whersin affections of the 1w igs, putting on all the outer appearances of consumption, w hit.th, however, when traced to their source, are found to re! silt from certain baneful practices, fully proves that the princip lo of the division of labour, is nowhere more applicable than m medical practice.

UNIVERSAL LIFE ASSURANCE OF FICE, 1, KING WILLIAM-STREET, LONDON. The Rates of this Office, founded on the most accurate ob servations of the duration of human life, are as moderate as is consistent with perfect security. One-fifth of the ascertained profits of the five preceding years is divided between the policy-holders and shareholders ; three-fourths to the former, and one-fourth to the latter. The remaining four-fifths are set apart to enter into the average of the succeeding years, and thus to provide against unforeseen contingencies. The first division of profits took place on the 13th of May, 1840, when a reduction 0 4 . 60 per Cent. wr.s declared on the current annual premiums of all those policies entitled to parti cipation. The second division of profits was in May, 1841, when a similar reduction was again declared.

THE MATCH-MAKER.—The clever author o " Cousin Geoffry," " The Marrying Man," &c., has jusl produced another work of fiction called the " Match maker." The very title of this work must invest it witl a boundless attraction, not only to those worthyn;thers who arc blessed with daughters ready to be married,or given in marriage, but to the fair espectants of matrimonial felicity themselves. The subject could not have fallen into better hands than those of the writer of " Cousin Geoffrey ;" and we understand that, like the popular " History of a Flirt," published a short time since, " The Match-maker" combines no small share of moral instruc.. tion with its piquant sketches of manners and society. THE GUN TRADE.—The Birmingham manu facturers are now receiving some large orders from the United States. These orders had been suspended while the M‘Leod affair was pending, but were issued after the trial had concluded. The calamitous fire at the Tower will also give employment to a considerable num ber of hands in the gun trade. Upon the whole, the prospects of the Birmingham artisans for the winter ar e • more cheering than could have been anticipated a short I time since. A deputation from the British Medical Aseocia ; tion, consisting of Mr. Read, and six other members of the Society, had a long interview with Sir J. Graham Saturday, at the Home-office. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF SATURDAY. GLOBE.—It is not often that the Tories are ac cused of refusing to pay the price of political services, and, indeed, they have rather been considered in the light of unscrupulous dealers, who are ready to purchase, without asking questions, anything that se, ms likely to be of the smallest use to them. The Conservative party has always kept a species of " fence," where people who are not over particular may dispose of worn-out cansciences, and coats that have been once or twice turned ; where, in fact, not merely the greater lights of politics, but the very candle-ends and rushlight pieces are eagerly received, and the " highest prices given," for the purpose of securing them. It, however, very often happens that those who take their commodities to the Tory market are surprised at finding, that on coming to weigh them, in order to ascertain the amount to be received, they are much lighter in the settles of the purchaser than the vender could possibly have supposed ; for the Conservative traders, like the ordinary dealers in marine stores, have a distinct set of weights and measures by which they esti mate whatever they are going to buy, and which are considerably above the ordinary standard. A party tool, therefore, which is offered for the value of the brass it contains, seldom weighs nearly so much in the buyer's as it does in the seller's scale, and the latter has often cause to grumble at the insufficiency of the price that is tendered him. It was to be supposed, that after a long suspension of business on the part of Peal and Company, the re-opening of the concern for the purchase of miscellaneous articles would crea!e a considerable rush of persons who have long been waiting the opportunity to dispose of their commodities. The result is, that after so long an ac cumulation of unsold rubbish, there is now a perfect glut of it ; and lamps of brass, bits of lead, habits so long discarded that they never can be resumed, with Tory tag-rag of every description, come pouring in upon Sir Rabat t Peel with so much rapidity, that it is impossible he can take in all the trash that is eagerly brought to him. Some must necessarily be dismissed with their wares, and these will naturally go away growl ing at the unfairness of a selection which has excluded them from a share in its benefits. STANDARD.—Mr. Warren is admitted on all sides to hold rank amongst the most distinguished law yers at the Irish bar ; indeed, taking the test of Sala we should say that he must hold the very highest place, for every one places him second to some par ticular favourite of his own. He is a gentleman of decided principles in religion and politics, one who has taken an active and laborious part in the Christian education of the Irish peasantry, and, to put the seal upon his claims, be is denounced as a Protestant bigot by Mr. Daniel O'Connell. It is impassible that any Protestant Conservative can sur mise an objection to such a man. But though Mr. Warren may not be " loved 1.155," others it ap pears ests orMr. Lit ton's "are Pdrl o iamlevnetdarmyercel.a"imsMr. ought, ‘V in theopinion of some, to be preferred before the claims of Mr. Warren, which are merely personal and profes sional. Would th:s be fair to the individual? Would it be just to the public ? Assuming the profes sional claims of the three gentlemen to be equal—and no superiority is claimed for either of the others over Mr. Warren, that gentleman has one, and what in this country would be considered a decisive advan tage over them—we see, by the Irish law-list, that Mr. Warren was called to the bar in Michaelmas Term, 1806 ; Mr. Litton (Easter), 1811 ; Mr. West (Michaelmas), 1815. Long standing at the bar, as in any other profession, if unattended by eminence, proves the reverse of merit ; but when a man has long occu pied the first rank in his profession, it is not just to him, not just to others, that his claim to promotion from length of standing should be disre garded upon slight grounds. It is a wrong committed upon the bar when such claims arc postponed to .any other. Mr. Warren, it is said, bas not served his country in Parliament ; what then ?—he has served his country not less effectually. The late Attorney- General Saurin, in his after life the object of the un qualified admiration of the Irish Conservatives, never sat in the Imperial Parliament ; and it would not be less for the honour of his memory if be had never sat in the Irish Parliament, as Mr. O'Connell has proved by quotations from his anti union speeches. Why may not Mr. Warren as effectually serve his country out of Parliament as Mr. Saurin did ? HONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF SATURDAY. TlMES.—Notice has been already taken of.,the in fluence upon the Money Market generally of the deal ings in spurious Exchequer bills, and more especially the high rate of interest occasionally paid for loans upon them during the last four or five years, but the subject is still capable of much further illustration. A letter from a mercantile firm in the north of England goes into some practical details respecting it, and shows that to this cause is to be ascribed many of the sudden and dis tressing fluctuations in discounts which at the time ap peared to be so unaccountable. They state, that for the last 18 months they have frequently remonstrated with their brokers on the high rates charged on first class bills, and were always met with the reply " that cer tain rates were to be obtained for loans on Exchequer bills, and that they were compelled consequently to ad vance the rate on commercial paper." The cause of such high rates for loans was always a problem, the solution of which, however, the detection of this nefarious traffic renders easy enough . It is manifest that large sums must have been continually taken up by the guilty parties, and most probably, to avoid suspien, spread widely over the London money-market, thus producing a fictitious demand for money at high rates. Those by whom the great discount brokers are supplied with means, would learn this condition of the market, and would naturally demand higher rates than custo mary upon mercantile paper. This is a point which requires to be well considered and understood by the great money dealers, as it may tend to restore the money-market the sooner to its naturally healthy state, from which it ought never to have been disturbed. Thus it appears, on whichever side the question is viewed, what fatal consequences have followed the neg lect at the Treasury of the simple precautions necessary to guard against irregular issues ; the whole of the commercial and financial system of the country has been disturbed, and a severe retribution, it is evident, must take place upon the Government itself. Whatever punishment the ordinary course of law may award to the guilty parties for the direct offence, there will still remain, to quote the letter referred to, " a fearful reckon ing, which no punishment or compensation can reach, for the disorganization of a market which rules all others." The feelings of men of business all over the kingdom are very strong on the subject, and they naturally and anxiously look to the Ministry now h power for the adoption of measures which may avert all risk of the re currence of so fearful an evil. The stamp which is put on the authenticated Exche quer bills, although it gives them a decided value as dis tinguished from those that are yet unmarked, has not proved sufficient entirely to restore public confidence in the Exchequer bill market, even so far as those marked bills are concerned. Two of the leading brokers in that particular department of business have, it is said, re solved to abandon it, unless some new guarantee shall be found to render imitative bills impossible, a degree of certainty which they consider is by no means attained - by the rude stamp at present employed. - What many of the brokers seem' to desire is the appointment of a testing office in the City, to which immediate reference might be made at every fresh transaction; the decision of this office to be so absolute as always to entail a Government responsibility. Such an institution many are of opinion would be the only one really calculated to restore the market, and it might be easily combined with the plans already alluded to for transferring the Exchequer bill . department to the Bank of England or the National Debt-office. SHIPWRECK —HEROIC CONDUCT (From the South African Commercial Advertiser of September 8.) On Saturday last the Prince Rupert, from London, with pas lc tigers and cargo for New Zealand, in entering Table Bay, about nine o'clock in the evening, ran aground on Mouilte Point, stuck fast, and will be a total wreck. When the Prince Rupert struck, about fifteen minutes past nine o'clock, she was, on firing a gun, observed from the Bucephalus, Indiaman, at anchor about two miles from the point, within the Bay, and a boat under the orders of the chief officer, Mr. John R.Merewether, put off to render assistance. Mr. Merewether succeeded during the night in making three trips between the wreck and the Buce phalus, bringing off thirty of the people, besides others that he put on board the boats that were near him at different periods of the night. About five o'clock, fancying that some person still re mained on board the Prince Rupert, Mr. Merewether pro ceeded to the wreck a fourth time, with a crew of seven men, the surgeon of the Prince Rupert, and Mr. Frood, a passenger, whom be had previously brought on board the Bucephalus. When they came under the stern of the wreck, a short sea broke over the boat, and nearly filled it, and the succeeding wave upset her, and this gallant and humane young officer, with three of his crew and Mr. Frood, perished in the surf among the rocks. d tl g m en C e It is impossible to express the grief which the un amitotfriSeisprecFtaunte timely death of this excellent young man has caused on board the Bucephalus, where his talents, his many ac complishments,sition had made him the object of universal respect and Commander, generous a d n i dispo sition and his most noble and company of passen tahffeeentuionineroOusf him an d passen gers by the Bucephalus, speak in t he highest terms of esteem ; and Mr. Fulcher laments the loss of his first officer and friend as the severest calamity that could pos sibly have befallen him. Mr. Merewether was in his twenty-fifth year. He was the son of Mr. Sergeant Merewether Whitehall place, London. His body was found in the course of Sunday, and buried on Monday last, being attended to the grave by a large number of the inhabitants of Cape The following evidence was adduced before the Coroner and Jury:— George Ashton, of Bailey-field, pen-knife grinder, de posed—About ten minutes to twelve o'clock on Sunday, I heard a noise in Red-croft, and I went out of my house to see what it was about. I saw Mrs. Rodgers falling out with William Stringer. They got to very high words, and I saw her strike him several times with her hand, and he struck her again with his fist, and knocked her down. She got up and flew at him again, and wanted to strike him, but he got away, and her mother wanted to get her away into the house. She refused to go. In the meantime Henry Rodgers came up Red-croft in a very great hurry, andmade a stroke at Stringer .with his fist, and knocked him diztwn. I did not see any knife in Rodgers's hand when he struck him. Stringer was in the act of getting up when he saw Rodgers strike him with a knife, which he had in his right, and cut- him through the neck. The wound bled very much. The knife that Rodgers stabbed-Stringer with was a shoe maker's knife, tapering from the haft to the point. By the CORONER—I heard Mrs. Rodgers call Stringer an idle skulking thief, and Stringer said she could not prove him one. George Jenkinson, of Union-lane, hammer-maker, de posed that he was standing with a person named Smith, at the top of Red-croft, on Sunday morning about eleven o'clock. After standing a short time, he saw Rodgers come running up Red-croft. Stringer was also standing at the top of Red-croft at the time when Rodgers came up. While witness was standing at the top of Rederoft, Mrs. Rodgers came across, and he heard Stringer call Mrs. Rodgers by some most abusive terms. She told him to pull that silver lace off him, and then Mrs. Rodgers's mother told him to pull his coat off. When she had said that, Stringer said to Mrs. Rodgers that he would kick her, and she went up and struck Stringer over the face several times. Stri ng er th en knocked her down. Her mother then came up and took her away, and Mrs. Rodgers went to the window of her house, but witness did not hear what she said. Immediately after this Rodgers came running up. Witness supposed that Rodgers was going to strike Stringer with his fist. Rod gers struck Stringer in the side. 'Witness distinctly saw Rodgers draw the knife out of Stringer's side. Witness was about a yard from Stringer when he was stabbed by Rodgers. Mary Ann, the wife of Wm. Angelo Andrews, of Red-croft, die-sinker, deposed--I was in my own house, in Red-croft, on Sunday morning, between eleven and twelve o'clock, when I heard a noise. I went to the door, and Henry Rodgers's wife and Vim. Stringer were quarrelling. I heard them both make use of a deal of very abusive language. Rodgers opened the window of his garret, where he was working, and said to his wife " Never mind what he calls thee, come in." She said " Nay," and ran back to the top of Red-croft in a hurry, and said she would be revenged of that bully—meaning Stringer. Mrs. Rodgers then ran up to Stringer, and struck him twice upon the face. I saw Rodgers get up t his window. He did not open it, but looked through it, and then came down stairs,-and out of the house, and walked a few yards. I did not see anything in . his hand at that time. He went back again into the house, and came out a second time. I then saw a shoe maker's knit. •in his left hand. I called out " mind— he has a knife," and upon that Rodgers turned the blade up his sleeve. I heard him say, " I mean it, and I'll do it." When he got past my door he began to run. I saw Stringer in the act of attempting to pick up a piece of a brick, which was lying on the ground, when I saw Rodgers run up to him, and stab with the knife . . in his left Thigh. By the Coroner—l saw Rodgers pull the knife out of Stringer's neck; blood followed, and-the knife smoked as if it had been used in killing a pig. Sarah, the wife of John Palmer, of Red-croft, scale cutter, deposed to the stabbing of Stringer in his right side by Rodgers. John Smith, of Red-croft, table-knife cutler, gave similar evidence to that of the witness Jenkinson,- and stated further, that after Stringer had been stabbed, he followed Rodgers to get the knife from him, and he said that if he went near him he would do the same for him as he had done to Stringer. Rodgers did not appear in a passion. James Maxwell, a policeman stated that after seeing Stringer, whom he found sitting in a chair in a house, bleeding from the neck, he went to the house of Rodgers. The door was fastened ; but on witness knocking it was opened. Witness found Rodgers in the garret. He told Rodgers that he had made a pretty job of it, as he had nearly killed a man, on which Rodgers said, " It is nothing more than he intended to do to me ; as he had a knife to do so to me last night." Witness asked him where the knife was that he had done the deed with, and Rodgers pointed to his seat where his knife was lying, and told him that was it. Witness took the knife and Rodgers into his custody. Mr. Thomas Thorpe, clerk to Mr. Albert Smith, the magistrates' clerk,deposed—ln consequence:of information given to me soon after ten o'clock on Sunday night, that Wm. Stringer was in a dangerous state, I went to his lodg ings, and there found Mr. Raynor. He said ho did nut think he should recover. He then made a statement, which I took down word for word, and it is signed by Stringer, and witnessed by myself and Mr. Raynor. It is in the following words:—"William Stringer, of Red-croft, Sheffield, carter, says—l am 25 years of age. I used to lodge with Henry Rodgers, and left his house filthy, about two months since. I have lodged here since. I met Rod gers's wife this morning in Red-croft, and we began dif ferino about it; site came and gave me a shove. I shoved her down, and then she went to fetch her hus band, Henry Rodgers. He was coming up Red-croft and I was going, down; I saw he had a knife in his hand, and as 30011,4tS I saw that, I stooped down to sam up a stone, and before I could sam up the stone he was upon me with a shoe-knife in his hand ; he stuck me with it in the thigh, then in the neck on one side, and then on the other, and then under the groin. He never spoke nor I either ; that was all ; I bled like a pig ; some one took him away. I was brought up home, and a doctor and a policeman were sent for; it was a little before twelve o'clock at noon. I and Rodgers had never any quarrel no farther than me telling him about this filth ; we had never any quarrel about anything else; I have never spoken to Rodgers these seven weeks. This statement is the truth, as I expect shortly to ap pear before my Maker." Mr. George Turton, surgeon, deposed—l was called in on Sunday last to see the deceased, William Stringer, about one o'clock. I understand his death took place just before twelve o'clock on Monday. I saw him alive the last time about nine o'clock on Sunday evening, and I did not then think he would survive many hours. I have made a post mortem examination of the body of the deceased: Externally the body presented the general appearances of previous good health. The wound was about an inch and a quarter in . breadth ; on laying open the cavity of the belly there was a large quantity of fluid and coagulated blood, evidently the conrequenco of a wound in some of the vessels of the belly. On exa mining the neck, we found a wound under the lower jaw, on the left side, about an inch and a quarter in length, end on the right side; of about three quarters of an inch. There was a communication between the two wounds as if the knife had passed completely through the neck. The injury was such as would be inflicted by a violent stroke with a knife, such as that now pro duced. I attribute the death of the deceased to the wound on the left hip, penetrating into the belly, wound ing the intestines, and the consequent loss of blood. In my opinion the wound in the neck would: not 'have been a fatal one. gone , through, the The whole evidence having been prisoner Henry Rodgers was brough t in, . and after being informed of the' inquiry going on, the whole of the evi dence was read over to him. He then made the follow ing voluntary statement :—On Sunday morning I com menced reading a work published i n Edinburgh, on steam-engines. I had scarcely read a page, when my wife called out to me that Stringer, the deceased, had been telling the people in the street that he had had intercourse with her several times. He expressed it in 'the' most blackguard and obscene manner he could. I told her not to mind what he said, I did not credit it, and to come into the house or otherwise go to her mother's. She went to her mother's. I don't know whether I read any at this time or not, when I w as shouted by several people to come out, as Stringer was killing Bess. I also heard my little girl cry "Father." I restrainbd going the first call and the second, until I was shouted repeatedly to come out. I ran down stairs and into the street ; I saw my wife bleeding, I think from the left side of the mouth ; the right side of her face was completely bruised and a lump on her chin the size of a small egg, from a stroke. My wife and child were crying at the time. I ran towards Stringer ; when I came within a yard or two of him, he attempted to lift a stone or a b r i c k ; I closed on him, and laid hold of him ; where I struck him I don't know. I have nothing further to say, only I went down to my own house, and one of the police came and a sk ed me for the knife, and I gave it him. I may mention one thing, that I had been threat ened by Shemeld and the deceased on Saturday night, to put a knife in my guts, but not in my hearing. The policeman his stated what I said to him wrong.—To this statement the prisoner affixed his name. The CouctiEß afterwards proceeded to sum up the evi like Antinomianisin in religion to beget a spirit of de pendence.—of " dependinn , on Providence"—if persons failed to do all they could ° for themselves. Man in his individual capacity (he said) was unable to accomplish some things which he might accomplish by joining with others. It was the duty of man to observe the laws of nature, and to endeavour to convert them to his own be nefit. Of those laws there were a great many that man had some knowledge of : the law of the seasons, the pressure of the atmosphere, and a great many others which he might name. There were, however, some _ag gregate laws also which man might convert for his own benefit. What law was more determined, perhaps, than that of the near equality of the sexes? Yet nothing ap peared a greater chance than whether a male or female should be born in a particular family. The law of mor tality was of a similar character : the time of death was uncertain to all ; yet in taking the mass of mankind in any given age, it might be predicted how many would die within a year almost with as much certainty as pre dictions could be made concerning the various seasons of the year. The same remarks might be applied to the law of sickness. It was from these laws that calculations were made, with a view of providing for the aggregate amount of sickness and death among the whole Society. After stating shortly the details of the Society, he said it behoved those who comprised it to be cautious in the selec tion of their members as to their health and constitution. It behoved them also in looking at their funds to be very cautious that they did not draw false inferences from their accumulation. Those which were destined to pro vide for a superannuated allowance must go on accurou lating until the age at which the parties were to have the allowance. The same with respect to endowments for children. The admission of new members likewise should not be viewed in a wrong light ; they did not pay any thing to aid those-who had previously joined the Society. but only helped.to make a more sure average, and in their turn to. form a succeeding class, that the Society, might be earried on from one gerierition to another. It was also to be rememberede9that - as old age ad vanced incapacity for . khpun increased, and sick ness increased, _and that therefore the subscrip tions which were to pteVfaa' for the whole term of life, ought necessarily to be more than would cover the outgoings of the Society during the first few years of its existence. Ou.these accounts it behoved all the mem bers not to be anxious to divide the money if it should accumulate', but' to husband sufficient for all the casual- ties that might 'come. upon them. He also hoped that some members , would be found willing to fill gratuitously the different offices of the Institution, either in rotation or otherwise, as the calculations did not include any pro vision for that purpose. Mr.- ROBERT OWEN (Eryron Gwyllt Walla) then pro duced an elegant and massive silver teapot, and said that the duty entrusted to him on thit occasion was a most agreeable one to his feeling. IC Lc. 14.1 15n‘,.,1./ 24r. Hugh Oaten only as Secretary to the Welsh Provident Society from its formation to that time—then nearly five years—his conduct during that period—his zeal and perseverance on behalf of the Society—would have ren dered the duty of presenting, through the Chairman, that small token of their hearty acknowledgment of his services a most pleasing one. But it happened that they were, and had been for many years, personal friends, and that circumstance enhanced the pleasure not a little of having then to unite with his brethren, the members of the Society, in paying this tribute of respect to one who had so justly deserved it. He desired from his heart long life to his friend to enjoy his reward.—(Cheers.) The recollections connected with a present of this na ture could not be unimportant. Perhaps the chil dren, and even the grandchildren, of the friend they had met to honour, looking at the handsome ves sel after he should be gathered . to his fathers, would be reminded that their parent had been respected, beloved in his day, and had been useful to his genera tion; and such' recollections would doubtless tend to awaken in them a desire to walk in his footsteps and to imitate bis exemplaryconduct. He adverted to the pre sent itself—and complimented the Committee on the taste and judgment they evinced, and he considered it creditable to the Society to have presented their Secre tary with an article at once useful and ornamental, and they wished, thereby, he had no doubt, to convey a wholesome lesson, that to be useful is the greatest orna ment of life. And it was not the least gratifying circum stance attending the presentation, that it was done on the same auspicious day that had given birth to a Prince of Wales. In the name of the members of the Society, as a small token of their esteem towards Mr. Owen, and the value they attached to his unremitting services as their Secretary, he begged his acceptance from the hands of the Chairman of the piece of plate. Hyn o rodd sydd yn arwyddo et gwir Ddiolchgarwch iddo— Haul fu ei rad'lafur o, l)yfal m einydd diflino. The SECRETARY rose, and was received with loud cheers. 'He said, he sincerely thanked his friends, the members of that Society, for the mark of their good feeling towards him which they had just given, and of the sense which they appeared to entertain of his voly humble services. He should value that gift very highly, not because it was silver, but because it conveyed to him a testimony of the good feeling of so many kind friends towards him, and of their approbation of his conduct as an officer of their Society for a period of nearly five years. He regretted to find that he was the only one who was made the object of any particular distinction connected with the Society, because there were others equally entitled to similar marks of appro bation. He considered it his duty to state, that he could have done nothing unless he had been ably assisted by other zealous and persevering friends. He must, in particular, name his friend Mr. John Davies, the Treasurer—(Cheers) —who and himself were, per haps, the originators of the Society. Their President, Mr. Griffith Davies, had given them very great assistance in preparing ,. the tables of th e So ciety, and in approving o f the rules, and especially in the weight and character which his name ha d afforded to the S ociet y . He could not fail to name his friend, Mr. Robert Owen, who had said so many kind things gratifying of him that evening, in a language which salin some of them did not understand. It was particular ly to him to receive such • a token f rom his hands, for they had been on terms of friendship from boyhood. He ought to refer, likewise to the assistance wh rendered to the Society lTi t b h y th A e lr. p J ri e n n e k ip in le J s Jones, which B enefit practical acquaint-. was such as rendered his aid peculiarly valuable. a b n a se based, d Societies are Several others, who had the be h en . . , means of giving a be gibennnainniged.to the It w S as oci t e o ty i , ti o nl ug is t a so, if time permitted, to sur prise that such a Society h ( ad r. no O t w b e e n en ) a or m ig a i t n t a e t r ed o f long before, for they were in London a very large body, es timated by some at about forty thousand. He alluded to the peculiar difficulty they had to contend with, from the fact of many of those for whose benefit it was formed being indifferent to the advantages held out. That cir cumstance had in some degree discouraged them, but as they went on they found that theygrew in strength ; and he was glad to say that they were continuing to increase in numbers.—(Cheers.) Mr. Owen stated that the Society was formed in January, 1837, and the rules enrolled in the month of March, 1838 ; the number of the benefit members was at present 63, of honorary members 12, making a total of 75. Four of the benefit members had died since the formation of the Society. The total amount received from the pre miums of the benefit members , a nd from the interest of monies in the savings' bank, the reles of amount paid to sick members, and to rtehrnatiutmhesreofnhrnilascehmn,boveas . for d' fund than a Valance of de ceased members, was 94/. ss. ; giving () was 174/. 15s. .T he total B th O a L t la na — e r ti s ier ß the 'd, and the rofit e f forme by al th subscriptions however, o a sd f bs t h uY o n e f lt s il b in u e o g r n p P t r i a s r y fund, w members, of the Society, was upwards of 100/. all the expenses excursions, the actual balance now in hand, after p pay s in o g He also stated that fifteen new members had been added during the present year. He concluded by again sin cerely thanking them for the kind taken of their regard towards him, stating that it would stimulate him, he hoped, to greater exertion on behalf of the interests of the Society than be had hitherto manifested. He was induced originally to lay his hand to the work from a sense of duty, but he felt now that a sense of gratitude would compel him to persevere.

He remarked that the principle of mutual combination, or of mutual aid, had been found necessary from the earliest ages ; that originally the only combination for mutual aid that was needed, was that of mutual defence from robbers and the beasts of the forest ; but, as society advanced, and nations arose, and entered into commerce with each other, those who had embarked their property at sea found it absolutely necessary to unite together to provide some means by which the risks which they incurred should be covered. Hence the introduction of marine insurance. At length the principle was extended to the life of man, and to the casualties of sickness and old age, which was the principle, in fact, on which their Society was -founded. He would particularly urge upon the mem bers of the Society the absolute necessity of a continuous iufusion of new members, without which it would neces sarily did a natural death. He would also urge upon them to watch jealously the proceedings of the Com mittees and the. leading members ; for (said he) you cannot always guarantee the conduct of your affairs by a Mr. Owen and a Mr. John Davis, to whom is due,. in a great measure, the existence of the Society, and who have devoted much time, and displayed great zeal, iu conducting it to its present apparent prosperous condition. He wou ld mention a circumstance which had come to his know ledge that day, as showing the absolute necessity of per sons entering Societies of this description while young. A person of the name of Thomas, a carpenter, who, he believed, was known to most of them, and who had al ways been considered an industrious and well behaved man, but who had neglected to join a Benefit Society, had met with an accident, which deprived him of the means of obtaining his liVelihood. He was now resident in an hospital, and he had been informed that the Rev. Mr. Williams had made an application to the Religious Society of this place on his behalf. He (Mr. Jones) could not help regretting that this unfortunate individual should be obliged to ask charity from persons, many of whom were themselves paying to cover their own risks, when that individual might himself have provided for the calamity which had now befallen him. Mr. Jones then proceeded to animadvert upon some observations which had been made at a previous meeting by the Rev. Mr. Williams, on the comparative value of Benefit Societies, and Saving Banks, which lie regarded as calculated to pro duce an unfavourable impression on the minds of the audience with reference to the advantages to be derived from Benefit Societies ; he was induced particularly to speak on that point, as he knew that any observa tions and advice emanating from that Reverend Gentleman, lie being one of their pastors, would have very great weight. He (Mr. Jones) would certainly advise, and he thought that the Chairman would concur with him, that provision should first be ramie to cover the contingencies to which they were all liable ; and that after that hail been dune; whatever surplus funds might be possessed by the members, would be very advantage ously deposited in a Savings' Bank. The speaker then remarked on the extraordinary difficulty experienced in inducing persons to join the Society—and observed that we are commanded to love our neighbours as ourself ; but he could not conceive how a man could do that and run the risk, or even contemplate the idea, of dying and leaving a wife and children dependent upon the cold charity of friends and the world. He felt he was oc cupying the time of the meeting, but he would, never theless, say a great deal more if he thought it would have a good effect ; but he would only observe, in con clusion, that he himself could not conceive that man to be a conscientiously religious man who neglected those things; for it was distinctly stated in one of the com mandments, that the Lord our God was a jealous God, visiting the sins of the father upon the children, unto the third and fourth generation of those that hated him and kept not his commandments. Now he was well aware that it was the fashion of sceptics and infidels to dispute the justice of that command, but the punishment threatened was not to be regarded as a direct punishment. It was not the transportation of a son for the robbery by the father, but it was the evil arising as the natural consequence of, the father's sin ; and who can tell the extent of injury to the third and fourth generations, to that man's children who is im provident; and neglects providing for his family in the event of his early death ; and, on the other hand, in the fulfilment of the remainder of the Commandment, " And I will show mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep.my commandments ?" Who can tell the extent of the blessings to, and the prosperity of, the future generations of children of those parents who have obeyed the Commandments, and have consequently, among other things, discharged their duties, as parents, in providing for their children to the best of their means, so as to enable them to be independent, and to hold their heads up as decent and respectable members of society ? Mr. Wm. MORGAN addressed the meeting in Welsh ; after which he made a few observations is English, stating that he was aware that a great portion of the meeting did no; understand the Welsh language. He remarked on the additional interest which was given to the meeting by the presence of so many ladies. He said it was impossible, when ladies and gentlemen met together, for a very great attraction not to be produced; and where ladies and gentlemen thus saw each other, it might lead to their going to church together—(Laughter) and thus promoting the objects of the Society, by en rolling themselves amongst its members. He had no doubt :hat the Society would continue to flourish, and he heartily wished it success. The tiev. WILLIAM ILLIAMS Wit 3 tacit',idled upon to address the meeting, and stated that he must have been altogether misunderstood by his friend, Mr. Jenkin Jones, in the allusion which he had just made. As far as he could recollect, he (Mr. Williams) had said that he certainly approved of such societies as benefit societies, and should himself be a member of one, be cause he considered them essential societies ; but, at the same time, he intimated that he should not only be a member f a provident society, but should also lay a little money in the Savings Bank, that he might be enabled from the one and the other, in times of difficulty, to relieve himself. He would say, by all means be a member of this Provident-Society, for it was the very thing to support the spirit of independence which their worthy Chairman had recommended. His aim was to be independent—and yet depending entirely upon Divine Providence ; he hoped and trusted that Welshmen as well as any body else, would. be independent, dependent only upon the blessing of Gcd.—(Cheers.) He would just make one other re mark which had occurred to which was that when it was urged that great care should be taken that the members admitted were healthy members, it had struck him what must become of the delicate and the infirm. Should another Society be formed to support them, or would that healthy Society reach out a hand to them. He should propose that no one should be rejected except the drunkard. He concluded by saying that lie hoped the blessing of Providence would rest upon their heads. Mr. J. JoNEs requested to offer a few words in expla nation. He stated that on the former occasion Mr. Wil liams had addressed the meeting in Welch, and the mis take under which lie (Mr. Jones) had laboured, with re spect to what lie had said, must be attributable to his not understanding the Welsh language so well, perhaps, as he ought to da ; but he was not sorry that he had fallen into a mistake, for it had brought his friend out, and he was sure that the observations he had made this evening would do the Society more good than any which had fallen from any member of the Society. He " a id, however, with all due respect to his friend, put himself in antagonism to him again. He (Mr. Jones) knew that a great deal too much sympathy existed in the Club already. Benefit Societies were not made for those in a weakly condition, they were only made for the strong and healthy. The tables were cal culated upon the average chances of sickness among those who were st rong an d healthy, and to afford them the means While y oung and healthy to provide against the casualties of sickness and old age. Mr. OWEN WYNNE THOMAS addressed the meeting in Welsh. - Mr. JAMES, in addressing the meeting, said that it was one thing for which the Welsh were to bo blamed that Societies like the present were not more general, and that other demonstrations of public spirit in London or elsewhere had not been evinced ; and he considered that want of spirit to be a reason of the degree of contempt, if he might use so harsh a word, in which the were held among other nations. Ile was quite sure l t N that e . s ti there did- exist in the Welsh a great deal of sinnr!fe,stedu t . from some cause or other that spirit Was not m anifested. ,Mr. BANKS, an Honorary Member, beingaorded him as to address the meeting, stated that it _ call ed upon present to have witnessed the mar k , (.
