But, while lost in astonishment at such a result, it points out that though so great a step has been gained, " every indication points to the certainty of a long and arduous struggle." Even if a bill were carried through the Low= House this session the Upper House would throw it out. According to present appearances Mr. Disraeli means to prolong the contest for two years. The result of such a prolonged contest will, the Nonconfornzist thinks, be most disastrous for the English Church. "It will set and keep in motion a teaching process such as the originators and supporters of the Liberation Society could not hope by any machinery of theirs to develope. . . . Mr. Disraeli cannot do a worse thing for Church Esta blishments, cannot take any course more certain to damage and ultimately destroy them, than that of re maining in office, and of violating the spirit and usages of the Constitution, in order to prolong the battle for the Irish Church. He will thereby forward the designs, nor of the abettors, but of the opponents, of the political union between Church and State. The true wisdom would have been to have acquiesced in a decision which there is no chance of reversing, and to have facilitated the speediest settlement of it consistent with senatorial decorum. He would thus have secured a considerable respite for the other Establishments, and have left public opinion to the slow ripening which results from unassisted out door agitation. As it is, he seems resolved to sub, ject them to forcing summer heats in the spring season—and there seems good reason to believe that owing to the blind infatuation of his party, the Irish Church question will not be finally disposed of before the public mind will be prepared to entertain proposals in reference to the Scotch Kirk and the Church of Eno:. land."

The hundreds of thousands of heads of Game reared oa my system during the last ten years proves its utility ; the loss from every cause has not averaged three to the hun dred.

There were also present—Major C. Wright, Dr. Hastings, and Messrs. T. Swinbourne, J. Matthew, R. Churchill, W. J. Farnell, Briggs, T. Williams, Bandmann, E. Smith, Irving, Ballantine, W. Campbell Sleigh, R. Miller, A. Maddick, J. B. Thompson, T. Bishop, Martin Pratt, D. Nicholson, G. Murray, W. Cowell, F. Toole, J. A. Barthwick, Colonel A. B. Richards, &c. Grace having been sung, and the cloth removed, The CHAIRMAN gave the first toist. He sail—lt is usual to give the Queen's health upon the strange plea that it is customary to do so. I have always thought that that was a very bad reason for drinking the toast of long life to the first lady of the land; but in this room and on this occasion it is hardly necessary for me to question the impropriety of the reason. I give you the health of one of the oldest supporters of your valuable institution, of one who has subscribed liberally and handsomely to promote the object you have in view. We, there fore, will drink not only to the health of our Sove reign, but to the benefactress of this charity. The toast was drunk with the usual honours. The CHAIRMAN-4 now give you "The Health of the Prince and Princess of Wales, and the rest of the Royal Family." The Prince of Wales is well known throughout the country for the geniality of his manners and the sympathy which he readily shows for all that is most useful and most interest ing in the occupations and pastimes of the people. (Hear, hear.) And if there is one thing with which his name is more associated than another, I think it is the honourable profession to which so many around me belong. (Cheers.) There is no species of public amusement, whether musical or otherwise, which the Prince of Wales is not only ready to appreciate—l will not say to patronise, for Ido not like the word—but I will say to appreciate, than that which now more especially concerns us. (Hear, hear.) The Prince of Wales has on every occasion shown himself prompt to sympathise with whatever may be unfortunate in the calling in which we are interested on this occasion. In a very recent calamity he was one of the first to show his sympathy, willingness, and promptitude to afford his support and succour. (Hear, hear.) lam quite sure of this, that whenever his Royal High ness—and without any disrespect to his Royal Highness I hope it may be a long time off—shall succeed to the high position occupied by his illus trious relative, this institution will not lack in hi m a real and truly and noble friend. (Cheers.) With regard to her who is identified with him not only in name but in the sympathy of the people, I mly be permitted to say that we rejoice to see the Princess of Wales again appear in public, and I trust that she and her children will be long spared in health and happiness to remain amongst us. (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN—The next toast I have now to give you is the health of the three professions among which we number many friends. I have to give you " The Health of the Army, Navy, and Volun teers." (Cheers.) I dare say there are present a large nutnber of the last-named branch of the service. I associate the toast with the name of our gal- lant friend Major Wright. (Hear, hear.) It has been my duty in Parliament to take part in a vote for a very large sum of money for the support of the gallant branch of the service first named, and I only wish that the amateur service—the volunteers —would take the place to a greater extent of the older branch of the army. The volunteer force has rapidly increased from a mere nucleus to be a great army, andl speak the sentiments of the best-trained veterans when I say that there is no feeling of jea lousy on the part of the army in reference to the volunteers; on the contrary, the volunteer force is regarded as the best means of disciplining the youth of the country, and fitting them to be soldiers when ever they may be required. (Cheers.) Major WRIGHT responded to the toast. lie said that the chairman in proposing it had left very little for him to do. In regard to the Abyssinian force he observed that it was in every way admirably con stituted. The commander, Sir Robert Napier, was a first rate general officer, and there was every rea son to hope that the hostilities in that country would be brought to a successful and speedy termina tion. No portion of the community felt more pride or took greater interest in the national drama than did the soldier. In our vast Indian empire it was very seldom that they had the advantage of seeing a member of the the itrical profeasion ; but he might say that whenever at a new military station the barracks and the church were completed, the next thing thought of was the theatre. (Hear, hear.) It was therefore not to be wondered at that most military men when they returned to the metropolis of their country regarded with feelings of admira tion those of the theatrical profession, who by their great talents had acquired a world-wide reputation, many of whom, ladies as well as gentlemen, he was proud to think he had the honour of addressing that evening. (Chee rs .) The CHAIRMAN.--Gentlemen and Ladies— When I recollect who have filled this chair at for mer anniversaries I am truly sensible of my own unworthiness to address you on the present most agreeable, and I trust it will be found most benefi cial, assembly. In this chair have from time to time presided some of the most eminent men of our day and generation. Their wit has not been forgotten by you, although it cannot be emu lated by me. But I trust you will take the will for the deed on my part. I belong to another class of actors, whose theatre is not perhaps licensed by the Lord Chamberlain. In that profession there are benefits occasionally, and they are very large, only they are for the few and not for the many, the rank and file going hungry and empty away. (A laugh.) We have, however, the power of putting our hands into the people's pockets. I was very much amused at a very large meeting held not very far away from this spot, the object of which was the promotion of financial reform. I went to the meet ing, I confess, with heart beating and hope high, for I have found, as you probably have found, that our taxes are heavy, and the way to lessen them would be a most desirable discovery. One of the speakers there stated that the case of the House of Commons was like that of the man who had painted a portrait of a celebrated solicitor, which it was alleged was not true to nature. " What is the matter ?" said the artist. " Simply this, that you have drawn him in the unnatural position of putting his hands into his own pocket." (Laughter.) I have related this story not so much because it is apropos of the House of Commons, but because I think it is apropos of the great and noble purposes of your gathering here this evening. Unlike other institu tions founded for the support of those in misfortune or overtaken by premature old age, you do not ask others to support those who are in need, but you put your bands into your own pockets for this pur pose. This is the noble principle of this institution that has sweetened its breath, and kept it healthy, and I am quite sure it will always preserve for itself the support and sympathy of the other portions of the community. (Cheers.) I have read with great interest the details of the excellent uses to which the institution has been put, and learnt the way in which numbers have been befriended when over taken by calamity, without undergoing the humi liation of exposure, and I mean exposure in the most limited sense of the word. (Hear, hear.) In a country which depends so essentially on enterprise and industry such a provision as this fund makes it absolutely necessary amongst all classes, and those who contribute to the instruction and amusement of the rest of their fellow-citizens are not exempt from this general rule. I only wish that in other institutions thei; was the same esprit de corps which has supported this noble institution now for more than twenty years in-vitality and vigour, -You are ~,. , I guided by a nobl e p r i nc i p l e, an d i n your soc i ety I may n ever be abridged. Id o t rust an d Id o fi rm l y am happy to . see a representation of all t h a t i s m oble, perseveri ng , an d t h r if ty i n our great commu nity- ; and I do t rus t t h at t h at var i ety or d i versity believe that the drama will not want sympathetic aid from without. (Hear) lam sorry on account of Mr. Dion ,Boucicault's absence, who presided at your festival last year. (Hear, hear.) Having ven tured to take the post as chairman this year, I wrote to that gentleman for advice, and I received from him a note, which your secretary will read by-and by, enclosing a cheque for £lO 10s. for the fund. He states that it is bodily illness alone that prevents his being present. I can only say this that I wish to be authorised by you to convey to him your sym pathy in his suffering and your regret at his ab sence. (Elear.) This will do much to console him in the privation which he states he is compelled to endure. Lord Arthur Clinton has expressed his in ability to attend, and the regret which he experi ences on that account. I know also Mr. Buckstoue regrets that his engagements at the Haymarket pre vent his being present on this occasion. I need not enumerate other names to you. We have in this room many distinguished men in various walks of life, and I trust that when the list is read over, and Mr. Swiubourne, whom I shall call upon to re spond to the toast, shall have stated the condition of the society, you will not think we have met toge ther in vain. (Hear.) Without further preface I give you " Prosperity to the Royal General Theatri cal Fund." (Cheers.) . Mr. SWINBOURNE, after a few preliminary obser vations, said they had now 30 annuitants, of whom 19 were ladies, and during the last year the fund had paid £1,350. Several other persons were eli gible, and would be claimants during the next ye ar. There was great pressure on the resources of the institution, and he made an earnest appeal in its behalf. Those who saw the actor playing his part little dreamt how he bad to mask a sad heart with a smiling face in his struggle to support the dear ones at home, or to put by something for a time of sickness or some unforeseen accident. In the profession the blanks were numerous, and the prizes but too few. That insti tution, however, was • open to all who had passed three years' probation, and as a proof of its utility he would mention a conversation he had lately with one of the members. On a recent provincial tour he happened to be walking with a young actor, and said to him, "By the way, you belong to the General Theatrical Fund, I believe ?" Tne reply was, " Yes, thank Heaven, I do. Three weeks ago I put my wife upon it, and my brother also ; and but for the existence of the fund he and I would have to support our parents, instead of which, through it, they live independently in a snug cot tage standing on an acre of land, and when we visit them we have a spare room at our disposal." (Cheers.) Such a picture struck him in forcible contrast with the case of a wore-out actor, nearly 70 years of age, who a few weeks ago called upon him for assistance, and who dragged out a wretched .existence by means of the charity of a few friends who knew him in his earlier days. (Hear, hear.) This was an instance which stimulated the genero sity of every actor and actress,"and all present that evening, towards the fund. Her Majesty the Queen had again forwarded her annual donation of £lOO. (Cheers.) This Royal munificence elicited their deepest gratitude. His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales had also sent his subscription. An eminent actor had lately made a proposal which much redounded to his credit. In answer to a question put to him, Mr. Dion Boucicault said, " I cannot act for you on the occasion referred to, but I will have my name put up for a benefit, and the entire profits shall be divided among your annui tants." (Cheers.) They felt deeply obliged to the founders of that fund, many of whom, alas! had gone to that "bourne whence no traveller returns;" but some remained who freely gave of their time and money to support it through its infancy to man hood, and he sincerely trusted that they would not desert it now. (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN next gaie the toast of " The Drama," associating with it, he said, the name of one who bad not been long known amongst them— Mr.Bandmann--but who in the short space of time he had been contributing to their instruction and amusement had made himself thoroughly honoured and respected. (Cheers.) The drama was one of those callings in which sympathy and fraternity were not limited by country—it was au art alike known and valued over the civilised world. (Hear.) Mr. BANDMANN, in reply, observed that the chairman had said so many kind words of him that he rather feared to address the assembly, lest he should not come up to their expectations. As re garded thd.dt.ama-he did not think that it needed any mouthpiece, it spoke for itself. (Hear, hear.) As a German by birth, and education, and appren ticeship, he felt as well as any of his brother artists the great power which this wonderful art exercised over every nation. In Germany the drama was re garded as a State institute ; and it was only the other day that he read in a German newspaper that the Crown Prince of Prussia had produced a five act tragedy which he himself had written. (Hear, hear.) It might be interesting to English people to know that in Germany Shakspere was more acted than Schiller or Goethe, and that the Germans claimed Shakspere as much as the British nation did. One of their poets ha l even asserted that Shakspere belonged ,to Germany, and not to England. (Laughter.) He justified this assertion from the circumstance that when Shakspere's genius was sent from heaven to earth it was directed to Germany, but unfortunately the wind blew very strongly in a westerly direction. (Laughter.) lie (Mr. Bandmann) cared little' where Shakspere was born ; for he belonged to the world, and the world had taken him up. He then dwelt upon the generosity with which the English people received foreign artists, and expressed his desire to help forward the progress of the drama. The CILAIRJIAN then briefly proposed the toast of " The Bar" coupling with it the name of Mr. Campbell Sleigh. (Cheers.) Mr. SLEIGH expressed his thanks for the manner in which the chairman had been pleased to propose the toast of the English Bar, and the very kind manner in which it had been received. Mr. CULLENFORD then read the list of subscrip tions, which amounted to £327, and the following letter from Mr. Dion Boucicault " My dear Torrens—lllness prevents me occupy ing a seat near you to-morrow evening. " If asked to speak to the toast of the Drama, I should feel like Gladstone if he were asked to return thanks for the Irish Church. " I am a sacrilegious iconoclast, the arch-de stroyer of sacred traditions and vested opinions. I am one who believes in the living drama and the drama of the future ; and I no more desire to see the defunct dramatist occupying the stage than I wish to see my grandfather rise out of his respected tomb and reclaim my inheritance. " Now, all this is very profane and heterodox. It would shock the digestion of many at a Free masons' dinner, and Freemasons' wine requires encouragement. So I apprehend you are well rid of me. " I enclose ten guineas. Will you kindly receive this subscription to the fund?" -The toast of " The Ladies" concluded the pro ceedings. The dinner was in every respect admirable, well sustaining the credit of the cuisine of the hotel. The annual report of the New York Commis sioners of Emigration has been presented, and from it we learn that of the 222,632 emigrants brought from Europe in 464 steamers, in 1867, 255 died, while of the 49,038 brought in 282 sailing vessels 494 died. From January 1 to March 18, 1868, 12,634 emigrants arrived at Castle garden in New York, being 8,582 less thai? &ging the similar portim 9f 1.867. The Guardian considers the vote decisive, so far as the present Parliament is concerned ; but does not think that Mr. Disraeli, being unable at present to dissolve, is bound to resign. He will carry on a long struggle in the hope of seeing a change of public opinion, an ex, periment which may fairly be tried, though if it should spew that there is little chance of the vote being reversed by the Reformed Parliament, the Adminis tration would not be justified in retaining office. The Guardian alludes to, and seems inclined to credit, the rumour which is heard on every hand, that Mr. Disraeli was " not quite himself " when he announced his extra ordinary discovery of a conspiracy. At the same time the Guardian blames Mr. Gladstone for having forced on this matter so suddenly. It also deprecates the unwise policy of those defenders who persist in making out that the English Church has no better foundation than the Irish.

LAW AND POLICE. I.IANSLATTCHTER BY A WOMAN. -At the Central Criminal Court, before Mr. Baron Pigott, Mary Manning, a woman aged 34 years, was indicted for the wilful murder of a child named flonora Sweeney. It seemed from the evidence that, on the afternoon of the 27th ult., Margaret Sweeney, the mother of the deceased, left the child in the cradle with another infant, but had not been absent more than a few minutes when she heard a scream. The prisoner had the child in her lap, and was apparently nursing it before a coke fire. Another scream was heard, and the mother of the child went back to the room and met the prisoner coming out. The child's thighs were very much burnt, and blood was running down one of its legs, and on the following- day the infant died. When the prisoner was given into custody she became very violent, and savagely kicked the police man who apprehended her. The child's clothes were not burnt, and the theory for the prosecution was that the prisoner had deliberately lifted them pp and placed the baby on the fire. The defence was that the prisoner, when in a state of inebriation, accidentally let the child fall on the fire, The jury found the accused guilty, and she was sentenced to five years' penal servitude. FRAUD BY A VOLUNTEER OFFICER.-At the same court Edward Vaughan Arkbuckle, who was formerly adjutant of the Woolwich Volunteer Artillery Corps, was charged with defrauding persons of several sums of money. It seems that the prisoner was charged in this court a short time ago for a like offence, but acquitted. In the present instance he had forged his father's signature to two cheques for £5 each. It was proved that he had no autho rity to draw the cheques. The jury found him guilty, and he was ordered to he kept in penal servitude for five years. ROBBING A RAILWAY COMPANY.-At the same court William Treville and Solomon Solomons pleaded guilty to an indictment charging them with stealing a large quan tity of tea belonging to his masters, the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway Company, and the latter to the charge of receiving the same, knowing it to have been stolen. The case was a very Lad one, the railway company having been systematically robbed of tea for a long time past. It had been the practice for people to get the van boys to drive the carts, while they, with the carmen, were engaged in breaking open chests of tea in the inside. The prisoner Solomons bad carried on the business of a sponge merchant, but the police had watched his premises for a long period, owing to his having been implicated in a large opium robbery about six years ago. On that occasion he was called as a witness for the prosecution after his com , mittal for trial. In the present case it was stated that upwards of 401 b. of tea had been found at his house. The Recorder sentenced each of the prisoners to eighteen, months' hard labour. THE FENIAN MoNAN.—At Bow-street, the Fenian Mohan, Morgan, or Magan, was finally examined on the charge of inducing soldiers to desert from the British iarmy and join the so-called Fenians. Sir Thomas Henry committed the accused for trial on the charge of treason• felony. THE CHARGE AGAINST A COFFEE-HOUSE KEEPER.—At Clerkenwell Police-court, Hobert Heath, keeper of the Express Coffee-house, King's Cross, was charged on re mand with stealing a cash-box containing £llO in gold, silver, and notes. After hearing the whole of the evidence Mr. Cooke committed the accused for trial. THE MARQUIS TOWNSIIEXD AGAIN.-At the Clerkenwell Police-court a servant girl, accompanied by the Marquis Townshend, applied to Mr. Cooke for a summons against a physician in large practice for ill-using one of his sons, aged 14. The young woman stated that the physician in question had about three weeks since beaten the boy with a baluster. lie had also beaten him with a cane. —Mr. Cooke : I suppose all that h' did was to chastise the boy.-- The young woman said that was so.—The Marquis Townshend said that when the young woman first complained to him she said that the physician had locked the boy in a room and had ill-used him. Perhaps the magistrate would allow him to put a few questions. This was allowed, and the girl stated that the physician had confined his son in his room. In reply to Mr. Cooke, the girl stated that she had been in the employ of the physician, but had now left. She had not complained to her master of his conduct towards the boy. She considered that it was more than proper chastisement that he received. The room in which the boy was confined was upstairs ; it was his bedroom. He was kept in the room, but the door was not locked ; he was kept in the room by way of punishment. She had not seen any bruises on the boy. Mr. Cooke said this was not a case in which be could grant a summons upon the mere state. ment of a discharged servant. The boy was 14 years of age, and could, if he was ill-used, apply for the summons himself. The Marquis and the young woman then left the court. The Right Hon. the Speaker has arrived at Buxton for a course of baths during the Easter recess. A Bremen letter states that emigration thence has never been witnessed on so large a scale as at present. Between 7,000 and 8,000 persons have passed through the city during the last few days, coming chiefly from Saxony and Prussia. Many also arrived from Bohemia. THE REPRESENTATION OF COLERAINE.—The pro bability of a change in the representation of Coleraine, in the event of a dissolution or the recurrence of a general election, is again talked of here. The speech of Sir Hervey Bruce delivered on the Irish Church question has dis pleased a good many. His successor in the representation of the borough is mentioned as Mr. Daniel laylor,,J.P., the most rising merchant of the p lace. Mr. Taylor is a staunch Presbyterian, of most advanced i Liberal opinio enrs,,, v anti is exceedingly p o p ular in Coleraine.— Ilrorlh l.
