IN the morning of Life, when the blandish ments of passion " take the reason prisoner," it is an evil more to be lamented than wondered at, if, in the vortex of deceptive pleasure, the unhappy traitor against the laws of nature pays in lonely di s appointment a fearful exaction for his rebellion in the compromise of his mental as well as bodily powers. To all persons so circumstanced as to require the professional aid of men of experience, whose time has been for twenty years studiously and suc cessfully devoted to the complaints arising from nervous debility, whether natural or acquired, GOSS and CO. proffer the most consolatory assurances. The youth who has enervated his frame by the strangely fascinating sin, which the poor victim of folly will too readily comprehend without further description, may find relief from his mist ry, and be kindly taught to rtgain his lost place in the scale of creation. The sufferer who, from another extreme of in dulgence, has with unbashful forehead, wooed debility, may learn to renovate nature, and repair his abused con stitution. The man of pleasure exposed to and suffering from Lues Venerea, however aggravated by malpractice of the quack, or the concealment from diffidence, may find a certain restoration ; and finally in cases where the delay of a connubial pledge has almost extended disappointment to despair, they offer to the married female those hopes Which she can reasonably appreciate. Messrs. GOSS and Co. are to be consulted, as usual, every day, at their house; and patients in the remotest parts of the country can be treated successfully on deserib i!g minutely the case, and enclosing a remittance for Ad vice sail Medicine. No difficulty can occur as the Medi cine will be securely packed, and carefully protected from ohservation. GOSS and Co., M.R.C.

By Mr. JOSHUA DllON—Reform. That Reform which by conceding to the people their just rights will ensure to the Aristocracy the respect and influence due to the first nobility in Europe. It being ascertained in the coursP of the evening that Sir William Campbell had arrived from the south, the President directed a deputation to wait on him and invite him to the festive board. Sir William received the depu. tation with great affability, hut from the fatigue be had undergone in his journey was obligei, though reluctantly, to decline the invitation. Mr. President and Gentlemen,—l thank you in the name of the German Society, for the honour which you have conferred upon that Institution, and, person ally for the compliment which entitles me to a ddress you. I owe to my ancestors the honour of presiding over the respectable Society which I represent on this occasion. I rejoice in the opportunity which it affords use to unite with you, and with the representatives of other nation& Societies, i n stituted to relieve the wants, and ameliorate the condition of their countrymen.; and I trust lam rea sonahly proud of the German blood which flows in my veins. But I rejoice still more, and my pride is greater, in being a citizen of the United States, and a native of the city of New York ; as such, I cannot refrain from con gratulating this respectable company of Englishmen, on the increase of good feeling betvi een the citizens of our respective countries. This good feeling arises from several causes. The political state of Europe has placed your country in a posture deeply interesting to a people de scended from the same common mother—speaking the same language—and governed by the suite laws. Our commercial intercourse is divested of those causes of jealousy which have sometimes disturbed its harmony. Our shores are visited by a different description of per sons from those who formerly skimmed over the surface of the land, unknown and unnoticed, and sought no in formation but such as tended to confirm their prejudices. We are now honoured by the visits of your statesmen, who do not disdain the study of our youthful and vigor ous institutions; your men of literature—too enlightened to be prejudiced, too liberal to be uncandid—and your merchants, whose sagacity leads them to discover the ad vantages resulting from a free and friendly intercourse between the two nations. And we also, tempted by the facility of c ommunication, which overcomes in a great degree the dangers and difficulties of a barrier so formida ble as the Atlantic, are sending you by weekly instal ments, a better sample than formerly of the intellectual wealth and personal respectability of our population. This is as it should be ; it will serve to make us better acquainted, and that alone is nec-ssary to make us like e'en other more. Further remarks would detract from the force of this sentiment, and I beg leave to conclude by offering a toast in a ccordance with it. The Sailor King and the Soldier President—May no contests at ise between them, but those of mutual benefits and kind offices. The President of St. Patrick's Society gave the follow. ing toast: — Lord John Russell—and a Reform in Parliament con sistent with the principles of the British Constitution. 10th. The memory of the Benevolent Founders of our Society. The motto they ado p ted for itis characteristic of their own worth. " Let mercy be our boast and shame our only fear." Band—Dirge. 1 1 th. The city of New York and her worthy Chief Magistrate, whom we regret could not be our Guest. Band—Canal March. 12th. Scotland. Famed for honest men and bonnie lasses. Band—Scots wha ha'. 13th. Ireland our sister country. It is not the agita tion of the few that can shake the patriotism and virtue of the many. Band—St. Patrick's Day. 14th. The Colonies and Dependencies of the British Empire. May they reap the fruits of vigorous enterprixe, intelligence, and industry. Band and Glee—Ye Gentle men of England. 15th. The Right Hon. Charles R. Vaughan, and the representatives of the British Government in this country. On the health of Mr. Vaughan, &c., being drank, the British Consul, Mr. Buchanan, addressed the Chair. Mr. President and Gentlemen,—l rise to offer you thanks on the behalf of the Right Hon. Gentleman, and those adverted to in the toast just drank ; I wish most ardently he was your guest on this festive day, as being so, would convey more forcibly than any language the warmth of your regard, not only for him as a gentleman, but as the representative of our beloved King. Re peatedly has he stated how deeply he was affected by the uniform kindness he has every where experienced, since lie came to the United States. I cannot sit down, Mr. President, without adverting to the manly warmth of ex pression with which the Worthy and Honourable Presi dent of the German Society spoke of the good feeling so happily subsisting between our country and the United Srates,—so gratifying, so valued, and cherished by every loyal subject of his Majesty, and received with such raptur ous applause by this assembly, and sure I am, I need not tell the members of this benevolent and loyal Society, that no other citizen of the United States has contributed more essentially to give rise to, and strengthen those sentiments I of mutual good will, than my friend Mr. Hone. Mr. President—l have entered on my sixtieth year ; I remember well forty-five of these years, in which the loyal have had many trials, but I never had such heavinc of heart as of late, arising from the uprooting democratic and infidel spirit, which equally assails the British Consti tution, as it does those governments where liberty is neither understood nor enjoyed ; where they have not a King identified with the people. Is the march of intellect to sanction the casting off of all restraint, human and De vine? to prostrate those institutions tinder which the greatest sum of human happiness ever experienced on earth has been found ; where justice is administered 1 eque _fy to the King and the peasant ; where the limits of society are so well defined ; life, liberty, and property so well secured —to risk so much, such long tried substantial bliss, for the theories of infidelity and irreligion—l repeat it, has sunk my spirit to a degree of depression, which has been greatly reduced by the good old British feeling so eminently dis played this evening as well as the tidings I have just heard from m y n ative land, Ireland, so that I trust all is yet safe. Permit me to offer the following toast— Pure Religion, pure Laws, and pure Liberty. As these are all assailed in the present day—l. will add, way ?

The l';. - ittg ilea levelled in the eastern departtnctits of France to -encourage the peaue of aill i prices s system, and to rc - , resent all those as enemies to France who are for •xt ending the benefits of the. July reYoltitiore to Bei 4ium, Italy, Poland, and Spain. So all Ow ap aoirements made by the King of the oflicera of the . National Guard of Paris have been so made in favour if a particular party, and not with reference solely to their private worth, and the esteem.in which tiny .sere held by their fellow-citizena, If tiny one dee ,ires, in flue, to obtain the smallest concession— even of justice and right—from the Government, the answer given depends on the fact of whether the demandant belongs to the peace or the war - party. This Ministerial influence is of vast moment in France. Thousands and thousands of electors depend for their daily bread upon the will of the klin:ster; and when the timid cr the calculating are informed that they must suppo:t the Nlinisterial candidates or prepare for destitution, they are often times induced to forget the claims of their country, and attend to those which press more daily and elnsely—l mean the 414;ms of their families are' homes. Nor have the various destitutions which die Minister lois made in the civil and niilitaty ser vices of persons who belonged to the National As sociations formed in France tended to allay those fears or diminish the number of the timid. On the eon-nary, this system - of destitution has frightened many a mother of a 1 rge family with small means, and those dependent on Government, to entreat her husband or son to pledge himself to vote for the Ministerial candidate, although by such pledge his private feelings should be wounded, and his prin ciples and wishes violated. For these reasons, then, [ assert, that although the approaching elections . will better explain the position of France, her wants and wishes, than any which have taken place dur ing the last seventeen years, yet, that the Deputies 'elm-fled will be very far indeed from constituting a truly national representation. And now approach the elections ! The electors will return at least one hundred and fifty new men to the Chambers. Perhaps more, but at least 150. These new men will be first, in lieu of Ultra Loyalists..—of moderate Royalists—of men who Would vote for an hereditary Peerage—of certain doctrinaires, and of some men of the centre gauche. Ido not believe the extreme gauche Will lose half a dozen of its old Members. If they do not come in for one place, they will for another. M. Lafitte, for example, is likely to be returned by three or four different Colleges in different parts of France. The electors have decided upon this mea sure, in order to shove the Government that they approve of M. Lafitte, his principles, the part he took in the revolution of July, and that they are not forgetful, in spite of all the faults of his Admi nistration (and they were many), of the sacrifices he has made for the honour and happiness of his country. The new Chambers will he principally returned to decide the question of the Peerage. If M. Perier should propose an hereditary Peerage, he would he defeated by a large majority. I feel convinced of this, and so do the members of that admirable So ciety, " Aide-toi, et le Ciel Caidera," But should an Address be proposed to the King to change his Minister.; in the new Chamber, I do not anticipate that the Address would be carried. I may be mis taken, and assuredly should be so, if Poland should be compelled to submit to the domination of Russia —but without some such evil as that should arrive, I do not believe that there Would be a majority for re moving Mini•ters. I f, however, any loyal and constitutional Address should be proposed on the subject of Poland, which, whilst it should riot inter fere with the prerogatives of the Crown, should yet express the wishes of the House on that interesting subject, I feel quite convinced there would be a large majority for the proposition. This the Minister might consider as tantamount to a defeat, and retire. It appears to be generally understood that the Ultra-Royalists and Carlists will not interfere or vole at the approaching elections. This will be ratbtr favourable than otherwise to the system of Casimir Perier; because, if the Royalist electors interfered at all, they would divide their votes between Re publican and Ultra-Royalist candidates,.and the vot ing for either would injure the Ministerial candidate. In the departments as well as at Paris, the Minis ter has made great efforts to obtain from the Royalists their support of Ministerial candidates ; Wt as these men are only Royalists for Charles X. and not for the new popular royalty of Louis Philip, thay have very generally refused. They have re fused to put forward Royalist candidates for fear of exhibiting the weakness (I mean numerical weak ness) of their party—and they refuse to vote for Casimir Perier's system for fear of being supposed to adhere to the present order of things in France, or to a dynasty which is not founded on " Divine Right !! I" The Republicans and the Patrio:s of July have disdained to ask these Royalist electors for their suffrages. Their systems are too opposed to be reconciled—and they do not desire to obtain votes which are not given from public and conscien tious motives. The Minister is awaiting the elec tions with anxiety and alarm. The paeriots of July are awaiting them with confidence and hope. The former knows that a majoritj against him must at once get rid of his system. The latter know that if they have not a majority for them at this moment there will be one next year !

At length the cry reached the ear of Louis Philip- - --the law so often postponed was finally introduced, discussed, altered and tressed —and 110. V all Frenchmen, who are twenty-five years of age, seed pay 200 francs at direct taxes, are electors-and all Frenchmen who ire thirty years of age, and pay 300 francs of direct taxes, are eligible as candidates to be returned to the Chamber. The Chambet of Deputies, which under the old law was composed of 430 Members, is henceforth to consist of 459, being an increase of 29 Members, which was essential to a real and twill fide representation; You know already my opinion of the electoral law. It IS'not sufficiently large and liberal—it is not t ratiottal-seit does not accord with the institution of the National Guards—or with the promises of July—and some day or other it must be altered. I think very soon; but we shall see! However, the new law is a vast improvement on the old one—nearly double the number of electors will have the right to vote—and the Chamber will be much more national than that of 1830. Then came the Dissolution! and the calling of a new Chamber It was convoked for the 9th of August next, but now for - the 23d instant. After the dissolution then came the preparations for the elections. The electoral law requires cer tain formalities as to the inscribing of the electors' names, certain days for publishing those namesar for appealing to the Prefects—for appealing from the decision of that officer to the Royal Court, and so forth. Let me add, that all this has been done with loyalty, honour, good faith, and in very few instances, comparatively speaking, have complaints been made of the decisions come to, or of any par ' tiality manifested towards electors who are Mini sterial and those who are known to be Napoleonist, Republican, Patriotic, or even Carlists. This im partiality and justice on the part of the Prefects cannot be too highly prized or praised, and this is one of the vast benefits we have gained by the re volution of July, 1830. But here my praise must end. If the Minister had manifested the same impartiality as the Pre fects, the approaching elections would have faithfully represented at least the unb'assed opinions of the elector- of 1831 ; and although those opinions would have been less liberal than the opinions of France entire, as I shall presently show you, yet they would have represented a great portion of the Property, talent, and good sense of this country. Gut the Minister his acted otherwise. He has not merely put up Ministerial candidates—as for in• stance, Admiral de Rigny, Minister of Marine, to oppose the General Lafayette!! But he has di recred the Prefects, who are the representatives of ' the King in the Departments, to use his influence with the electors in obtaining the election of these Ministeral Deputies. Ile has inculcated moreover the principle, which was so popular with M. de la Bourdonnaye, as well as with M. de Pep °rine, that all who hold offices under a Government, from the porter at a Sub-Prefect's to the heads of Divi sions in Ministerial Bureaux, are 41 bound to ap prove till that is done by the Minister for the time being, and to vote for the candidates of that Mi nister, whatsoever tray be the private principles and opinions of the elector. Th;s most dangerous system is based upon the mistake that public func tionaries serve the Government and do not serve France : whereas, the truth is, that the function -odes have a duty to perform as functionaries, and another to discharge as citizens. As functionariese for instance, they are bound to be honest, active, punctual, and zealous in the discharge of their of ficial duties, let who will be Minister, and let what will be the form of Government. But, as citizens, they are bound to elect such representatives as will, in their opinion, support the Government if they think it deserves support—or oppose the Govern merit if they Think it ought to be changed or re formed. For instance, I hold that a Carlin may be a most excellent clerk, and a Republican, an admi rable Postmaster-General, even under the Govern ment of Louis Philip, Citizen King. A popular Government should avail itself of the tslents of all v a i n d d e e s te r y y d b i s e t i h n o c n t i e o s n t , b p e r t t ‘ i v d e e e tt, t h a e n i rd duties t i se, ' and en e p e r i o r as a dministrators and as private citizens. Indeed I go further than this, and say that the State is served, and that materially, by the mere fact that persons holding public appointments being in oppo sition to the principle or practice of the Minister of the day, the State will be less liable to peculation and intrigue; and this check upon the actions of Head Commissioners, upon Head Clerks, and upon Chiefs of Divisions in Ministerial Bureaux must be productive of great good. I would not then, if I could, have any Minister surrounded entirely by dross who think as he thinks, arid who are not disposed even to examine into the character of his system, but who adopt it without inquiry and without con cern. Yet this principle M. Perier has been labour- I ing to destroy—and by destroying this independ ence of public functionaries, the Minister may in- sure a majority, but the public must suffer. Besides this sort of influence which the Minister has been exerting, with the view of obtaining a ma jority in the new Chamber, be has been daily mis stating in the Illoniteur, in the Debar, and Ales sager des Chanthres, and by even the mouth of the King himself, the opinions and wishes of the Op position. For instance, it has been often alleged during the last two months, and enforced daily on the electors, that the Opposition makes the mobs in Paris, and that the mobs ruin commerce; ergo, that those who are members of this opposition ought not to be returned as Deputies. In the Departments this sentiment has been enforced by the Prefects and by their agents. So, again, the Minister has represented the system of the oppo sition as one of " war at all prices;" and if the Pre fects, Sub-Prefects, and Mayors were to be believed, the electors would imagine that such men as La marque, Salverte, Mauguin, &c. desired to involve France in war, merely for the pleasure of gratify ing their thirst for blood arid anarchy. So, again, in the Departments, the Prefects and their agents have represented to the electors that such men as Lafayette, Odillon Barrot, Delaborde, &c. are enemies to the throne of Louis Philip, and that, by a Constitutional Monurchy, surrounded by repub lican institutions, these honest and virtuous citizens mean that Louis Philip should be dethroned, a Republic established, and Lafayette proclaimed first President. This stratagem has been resorted to for the purpose of alarming the timid, and swelling the votes for Ministerial candidates. In some de partments the trick has even succeeded, but in others it has signally failed. M. Odillon Barrot, ' who has been invited to offer himself as a candi date at Strasbourg, has found it necessarf to refer to, and confute this error, and he has de clared that he is a friend to the throne of Louis Philip, but surrounded by Republican Institu tions. Even General Lafayette was interro gated by his constituents on this head : and in his celebrated letter to the Electors of Meaux, he has declared, that although at pre sent we are not marching with the revolution of July, yet that still lie thinks it possible to return to those ways, and recommends a firm and devoted loyalty to the throne established by the people. Independent of these means, the Minister has re sorted to the old scheme of Government favours; DUCHESS OF BERRI. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. left London June 15, and arrived at Mentz on the 22d, having travelled in a succession of steam-boats in company with the Duchess of Berri. The persons who accompanied her as her suite were,—a tall, thin gentle man, of about 50 or 55 years of age, who spoke English with facility; a gentleman of about SO, of a dark com plexion, apparently Italian, who called himself the Conte de Caussa; and a lady whose hair and complexion were dark, features pleasing, but melancholy, stature small, manners and conversation very lady-like, who called her self the Contessa de Caussa. In addition to these, who seemed to form the family, was a young French lady, who apparently united the offices of companion and lady's-maid. Th e re was also one English female servant, two men, anti a carriage. I have been unable to discover the real name of the Contessa de Calms, who strikes me as being a lady of rank travelling incognito. I have seldom seen a lady so melancholy,—as a reason for which she named the loss of a daughter within a few montiv, adding at that she bad also o ther sources of grief, and th she could tell a tale respecting her husband which was too melancholy to be mentioned. Is she the lady yf one e of the state prisoners ? With souse inconsistency, th Conte de Caussa occasionally spoke of her as his femme. She is, I s hould suppose, his sister. I have no reason to con sider the Marechal Bourtnont was of the party, the elderly gentleman being, I believe, Secretary to the Duchess. The Duchess never attempted any concealment of list . features, but I observed that the party took the precaution not to enter either Cologne or Coblentz by the packet, but travelled in a carriage in the first instance from Dussel dorf, and in the latter from Neuwied, the servants landing the ordinary way. The Duchess was not recognized till she arrived at Mentz. In every town the party looked at the lion., and I observed the Duchess taking notes of all that seemed most interesting. Indeed no one enjoyed the majestic scenery of the Rhine snore than that amiable but unfortunate Princess. She was in excellent spirits, extremely affable, and full of conversation ; and, as a fellow-traveller, I bad, from the first, no difficulty in being admitted into her society. S.

FRANCE. THE APPROACHING ELECTIONS --THEIR HISTORY, AND PROBABLE RESULTS. To the EDITOR of the MORNING CHRONICLE Paris, July 2, 1831. SlR,—This is an interesting moment for France! In a few days the electors will be called upon to de cide upon the individuals whom they will select to represent the national interests in the Hew Cham ber. Let me, then, invite your attention to-diy to this subject, and let us endeavour to understand the real state of the question. It appears to be generally understood in .Parlia mentary, Ministerial, Diplom atic, and even in the Opposition circles, that come what may, Ca , imir Perier will present himself as President of the Coun cii to the new Chamber, and will try the question whether or no he has a majority. I ircumstances may occur in Belgium, or even in Poland, between this day and the opening of the Session, which may induce him to alt er his determination ; but up to last night that resolution had been taken, and the Minister was resolve d u po n facing the storm. This may be rash or po litic, wise•or absurd. I will pro nounce no opinion, but simply give you the accom panying facts—and then judge for yourself. The approaching elections will be different to any which have yet ta ken place in France. Ever since the restoration. the conflict has been between an anti-national dynasty and a united and formidable opposition. Republicans, Napoleonists, Liberals of the Extreme Gauche and the Gauche, and indeed a large portion of the Centre Gauche, have, election after election, had to contend with the .double vote —with an interested, selfish, ignorant, and insolent aristocracy—with Peers pensioned by the Crown — with clerical influence supported by Princes of the Blood—and with emigrants and State paupers who looked for their daily allowance both of bread and amusement from Louis XVIII., or Charles X., and their anti-national relations. Sometimes at these elections, what with promises, and places, pensions, destifutions, threats, nominations, fraud, trickery, and so forth, the Bourbons have obtained a majority, and the nation has been obliged to cry aloud in order to obtain a dissolution. At other times, as in 1830, the Bourbons were indiscreet enough to develope too plainly their intentions—to alarm beforehand the nation—to make even the Aristocracy tremble, and to compel the electors, in self-defence, to return De puties, who would at least preserve to them their electoral privileges. And then came the Revolution After the Revolution of 1t330, various Members re signed—others ran away—some would not qualify --and others said that they protested against a Chamber " usurping" functions with which it was not legally invested; and, as M. Cormenin observed, assuming the rights of a National Convention, and then of one of the three powers of the State. The r esult was, that 130 Members were wanted to com plete the number, and a temporary law was passed which abolished the double vote, and authorized elections upon the principle of the New Charter, but with the practice of the old law. These elections were no sort of test of the feelings or wishes of the electors, and much less of France. They were ne cessarily hurried. The electors had no time to look about them for new candidates, and so, with very f e w exceptions, all the old Deputies who chose to present themselves to their constituents were again returned. The Royalists were replaced by Liberals in many instances—but in no one case were t he Liberals replac e d by the Royalists. The Extreme Droite thus lost nearly all its Members—the Centre Droite lost several—the Centre Gauche gained some, the Extreme Gauche some—and the Gauche a good many. As the system of the double vote had been abolished by the new Charter, the Royalists had no chance at those elections, and the new Liberal De puties were therefore returned to fill up the places of the retiring or excluded Royakts. Still, however, as the qualifications for Deputies and Electors were the same as under Charles X., with the exception of the age of the electors, young and revolutionised France did not assist at the elections of these 130 members, and no marked character, no character cor responding with the revolution of July was given to the old Chamber by, the introduction of the 130 Just published, price Is. to be continued Monthly, No. I. of IHE HORTICULTURAL REGIS TER and GENERAL MAGAZINE of all Useful and Interesting Discoveries, connected with NATURAL HISTORY, and RURAL SUBJECTS.

The Forty-fitth Anniversary of this Benevolent Institu tion was celebrated on Saturday the 23d inst., by the members dining together at the City Hotel. At six o'clock a large assemblage of members and invited guests sat down to a sumptuous dinner, comprising every delicacy the season affords, served in Unsparing profusion. Mr. Jennings exhibited his usual taste in the decorations of the room,—and never was banquet better appointed or more luxurionsly supplied than by the Jibe , al arrangements made on this occasion by Mr. Jennings. Among other guests, the Society was honoured by the presence of James Buchanan, Esq. H. B. Majesty's Consul, John Graham, Esq. President of the St. Andrew's Society, John Cham bers, Esq. President of the Society of the Friendly Sens of St. Patrick, and Philip Hone, Esq. President of the German Society, &c. &c. Owing to the nonattendance of the clergy the divine benediction was invoked and thanks offered up by Joseph Fowler, Esq. who officiated as Pre sident of the Society, in consequence of Thomas Dixon, Esq. now in Europe. On the removal of the cloth "Non nottis Domine " was given in the most effective manner by Taylor, Pearson, Gear, and Weight. After which Mr. FOWLER rose and addressed the Society as follows: " Festive celebrations have to contend with their full share of opposition. By some they are opposed. because they are averse to that display of pomp and circumstance,' which they pronounce to be inseparable froth such occa sions, and which they deem more honour'd in the breach than the observance.' The objections of others are not so easily arrived at, unless they proceed from a desire to seem wiser than their more simple neighbours, at the expense, however, of being Las happy. And there is a third class of opponents where scruples and motives are so complex and so profound as to pot even their own inventive powers on the rack for the discovery of a single why or the pro duction of a solitary wherefore. Pe this as it may—l am persuaded that although an Engliihrnan may deny festivi ties to himself, there is one species of hospitality he never can, nor never will deny to others, and that is a tear for want--and sympathy for misfortune. No radiant pearl which crested fortune wears, Shines with such lustre as the tear that flows Down Virtue's manly cheek, for other's woes.' " Gratified as I feel, gentlemen, and as we must all feel, at this present large assemblage of our social body, I can, I think, read in the countenances of all around me that we are not drawn here by the mere attraction of sight and sound ; but by recollections of our native land, too gratify ing to restrain --and by the deeper associations of charity and benevolence, connected with the high purposes of our Society—associations which we most willingly yield to, and which I trust will be awakened with increasing force on each returning anniversary. Under such impressions, 1 feel unaffected ple ;sure in referring to the steady pro gress and continued prosperity of our Society. Our e per manent' fund,—that sheet-anchor of our benevolent de signs—flourishes and is full of promise; and the demand upon our Charitable' Fund has been generally suet by an equivalent supply—notwithstanding the rigours of a sea son, marked by its inclemency and by its pressure on the poor and needy, among our fellow -countrymen, " Gentlemen, we have every thing to hope and nothin g to fear, for the eminence of our institution, while we can retain at its head an individua l so distinguished for energy, generosity, and dignity, as is Mr. Thomas Dixon, whose absence on this occasion no one can regret mere sincerely 4 \-16 ROBINSON CRUSOE, WITH W.
