THE CLASSICAL SCHOOL. On Tuesday last prizes were distributed to the young gentle men in the classical school of the Institution, who have won the same by success in their studies during the last half year. Pre viously to the distribution of the prizes, an entertainment, for such it really was, was afforded to the numerous and most res pectable audience assembled in the theatre of the Institution, by Latin and English recitations delivered by the boys. In some instances, these were delivered in such a manner as to deierve the most unequivocal praise of excellence, without any reference at all to the youth of the boys; and in no one in stance could we refuse to the young reciter the praise of having acquitted himself with much propriety. Of the recitations in Latin, that by 111`Neill, (Juv.loth Sat.,) "The vanity of ambition exemplified in the cases of Hannibal, Alexander,' and Xerxes," was the best delivered, and, indeed, left little to be desired. This is the first performance of the kind that has been attempted in the school. Elliott and Twiname - both acquitted themselves well. The recitations allotted to them demanded less energy and variety in the delivery than the noble piece pronounced by M‘Neill; but all that the sense demanded was most truly and effectively given, and received its just measures of applause from the au dience. Of the English recitations, we know not whether to aw ar d the first place to that by Bridge, from the poem of Marmion,' or to Sheppard's part of the celebrated quarrel and reconciliation of Brutus and Cassius, in the play of Julius Caesar. A natural advantage of voice is in favour of Sheppard, while the merit of study we are partly inclined to award to Bridge, unless, perhaps, the greater scope and variety of the piece recited by hi m deceivesus. Both were in fact, excellent, and do the highest honour to themselves and their instructors. After, but yet not far distant from, these were Morecroftv Aikin, Forsyth, Bateson, Isaac. We endeavour, though, pef haps; recollection hardly enables us to discriminate exactly, to name them in the order of their merit. Venable recited, with much propriety, Peter Pindar's " Razor Sellex." The other boys, whom we do not name, because we cannot pretend to place them, acquitted themselves well. We o assure our rea ders, that so much propriety was there, even in the least excel lent of the recitations, that even it afforded' gratification, and the whole was an extremely gratifying entertainment. The Rev. JONATHAN Baooxs then took the chair, and dis tributed the prizes. To Elliott, for the first rank in the first class—Arnold's Thu cydides. In this class the Rev. President said the competition had been remarkable; the successful boy having come near the maximum of merit, according to the scale by which merit is de tennined, and several competitors having fallen no great way behind the leader's success. Wlsleill and Sheppard had this merit. The second class—Porson'sEuripides--to John Brancker; second to whom stood Rae. The third class—Doring's Horace—To Edward Hancox ; honourable mention being made, also, of Hall, J. Walmsley Brooks, Harris, and J. M'Neill, who stood next in number of marks to the successful candidate. The fourth class—Virgil—to Hugh Walmsley ; next to whom' was mentioned R. Venables. The Composition Prize—Hun tingford's Pindar—to John George Sheppard, grandson to Ad miral Murray. Mr. Brooks said, that if the old system had been followed, that of awarding the prize for Greek and Latin, only, it would have been very hard to decide between the four first boys, viz., Elliott, M'Neill, Sheppard, and 'Forsyth, but that Mr. Peill told him he thought English composition ought also to be taken into acoount; and that there was such a pureness and chasteness about Sheppard's English composition that it determined him to award the Composition Prize to John George Sheppard, Admi ral Murray's grandson. Besides these, the Mathematical Master, Mr. Harrison, vo luntarily gave the following prizes to his pupils :—Paley's Moral Philosophy, to John Aikin ; . ,a,--Work on Natural History, to Thomas Stewart 'Train; and Johnspn's Lives to William Bu chanan. Mr. Brooks, on concluding his agreeable duty , of distributing the prizes, addressed to the boys some impressive observations on the necessity ofexertion and application, the only means of rendering ability effective and of sustaining success.—Satur day's Advertiser. THE RIGHT HON. C. P. TilomsoN.—The newly-elected re presentative of this borough, made his first public appearance yesterday, in the Exchange dining-room. It had been previ ously announced by placards on the walls, that the right hon. gent. would address the electors at twelve o'clock; an immense number of people had consequently assembled at that hour, but it was nearly half-past one before he arrived, accompanied by Mr. J. C. Dyer Mr. George Hadfield, Mr. Burt, &c. &c. In order to secure him a favourable reception, and a patient hearing, his committee had, two days previously, issued tickets to their friends, who were admitted through the private door, and by this means the room was more than three parts filled before Mr. Thomson's arrival. When the principal door was opened, the remainder of the room was crammed to suffocation in a few minutes by those, who, not having tickets, were admitted by the principal entrance. Mr. Thomson alighted from his carriage at the door in Exchange-street, but there the crowd waiting for admission into the room was so dense, that any attempt to pass through them would have been impracticable; he was, therefore, escorted through the news-room to the door by which his friends were admitted, and in his passage to that door, he was greeted bv the cheers of his party, mingled with other sounds of a some what less o c , ratifying nature. After the cheers and groans which followed the entrance of Mr. Thomson had somewhat subsided, Mr. J. C. Dyer made a demonstration of addressing the meet ing, but the }ells and groans with which he was received caused him to abandon the effort, and Mr. Thomson then mounted the table, and attempted to make himself heard; but although he spoke for nearly a quarter of an hour, not three consecutive words of what he uttered reached the ears of those who stood nearest him. Amidst the torrent of cheers, yells, and groans, however, we could occasionally catch a word or two, from which it appeared to us that the tenor of his speech was simply a re turn of his thanks for the high honour conferred upon him in electing him the representative of this borough. Finding at length that all attempts to obtain a hearing were in vain, Mr. Thomson's friends very judiciously withdrew him through the same door at which they had entered the room, and after in dulging in a few more cheers and groans, the meeting separated. --We understand that Mr. Thomson had no expectation what ever of being called upon to address the electors on this occasion, and that he visited the Exchange under the impression that he was merely expected to shew himself in the news-room, for the purpose of being introduced privately to such of his supporters as might be assembled there.--Manchester Herald (Wednesday.) THE MAYOR'S DONATION.—Tuesda) being Chrismas-day, his Worship the Mayor liberally gave to each person confined in' the Borough Gaol 21bs. of beet, 21bs. of bread, albs, of po tatoes, and a quart of ale.

SIEGE OF THE CITADEL OF ANTWERP, (From the Second Edition of the Times of Wednesday.) CAPITULATION OF THE CITADEL, BRUSSELS, Monday Noon.—This important event, for u'-; } 'i c/l t ,' of course, you were prepare d b y my express of yesterday, Il ~ i; length certai n . Th e capitu l ation was signed last night at h a past 10 o'clock. I have not been able to get a copy of the official docunle t itself, but you may rely on the following as its substance. General Chasse has demanded as the condition of his surre: l l der, that his garrison should be allowed to march out with ihe the honours of w ar , an d s h ou ld b e permitted to convey '- materiel of the garrison, &c., to Holland. The Marshal r e f use d the latter part, but would consent to the former only in the following way:— th e Baron Chasse was to ha ve hi s c h o i ce o f marc hi ng out at ,1 head of his garrison with a ll th e h onours o f war, forts Lillo a 0 Lief kenshoek being a t th e same t i me g i ven up to the French; or, if those forts w ere no t g i ven u p, th e b aron and his arrl,sou 0 to surrender as pri so n er s of w ar , an d so t o rema i n until g the too forts already mentioned are in possession of the French. 5 t After a nego t iati o n which o c cupi e d some h ours, C h as se._,.. / length accepted the latter terms, and agreed to surrender 11 0 ; self and hi s men as pr i soners o f war, he not having, as, alleges, (and as i s b e li eve d,) an y r i ght to control the c u _ai mandants of the two forts already named. In consequence of this a detachment of French took pos:eso sion of the d em i-l une an d of th e gate of the citadel leadin., the the Esplanad e , an d t o -day it was arranged that at noon. : o f Dutch garrison were to lay down their arms on the g laci,,, he the citadel, and retire to the rear of the French army. citadel was then to, have be en g i ven up to •th e B e l g i an t r oop: liii , Thus has terminated thi s fi rs t part o f t h e contest. It of now be seen whether Holl an d w ill str i ve to transfer the so.. war to the Scheldt itself. Y ou w ill perce i ve i n some o f the sub up, joined extracts that her fl ee t h as ma d e an - attempt t o coto lhe y and has had a smart action with some of the French: 6 , 0 A do were, by the last account s , no t a'great way below the = - Nord. But now that the citadel is taken, I presume they not make the attempt. Dut ch I am informed, on the be s t authority, that the twelve gun-boats, which were near th e citadel, were this m orning ~::: destroyed by fire. Whether thi s was d one b y t h e D u t c h tf ie cri selves, or by accide n t, h as not yet transp i red; b ut of t h e I' am assured there is no doubt. . The people here are delighted at the prospect of a tern s ' tion of all hostilities. The following extracts from the bulletin extraordinary, fa..,hib lished by the Independent this morning, and from the tbai— edition of the Liberal, are confirmatory of the above. The following supplement was publish e d thi s morn ing,.and distributed to the subscribers of the Independent: DECEMBER 21 CHASSE AND HIS GARRISON PRISONERS OF WAR. BERCHEM, Dec. 23, Eleven o'clock at Nig , ht.—Col. Auvre , who was sent to the citad e l w ith M ars h a l Gerard's proposals returned at half-past ten. General Chasse accepts the conditions of the Marshal, who gave him the alternative to leave the citadel with all the 1g ) ; nours of war, on giving up Forts Lillo and Liefskenshoek, become a prisoner of war, with his garrison. Chasse accept: the latter ' not having power to rend er th e f o rts alluded to, °vs' which he had no controul. The 61st Regiment are expected at the Nursery-ground, t 0 take possession of the posts of the citadel. • (From the fourth editionof the Liberal of last night, publishe d again this morning.)
