Association, announce a grand concert at the Royal

organ of the church, and several lady and gentleman
amateurs have promised aid. including Mrs. Hawes,
Misses Nforant. Rev. T. W. Berry, and the Rev. Mr.
Dorf.. the newly appointed curate. The ladies and
gentlemen connected with Holy Trinity church are
well known to have remarkably good taste in music,
and we shall expect an excellent concert, indeed that
is already warranted by the names announced, and
those others who are sure to take part.
tl3 WONVI.—A crusade has lately been undertaken by
the polies against the worst of the had women who infest
the sailors when they come on shore. and who spread
unutterable evil. Several of them have been proceeded
against in the police court for lioteriny, &e., and atnonest

the option of the rinionhnose, to vol.
TIIE aff&Sir4o Vivin.—For come time past great anxiety
has been felt about the non-arrival of the brig Vivid ; but
we have refrained from spreading the fear too early. So
late as Saturday night there was a rumour that news had
been received of the missing brig ; but this was on-
fortunat-ly untrue. She beloneed in part to Messrs.
Roberts and Co. ml Capt. W. Smith, the latter of whom
found her at sea, we believe. after which she received
considerable alterations and repairs. Last year she was
missed for a long time, hut put in an appearance again :
it is fared, however, that hope has been too long deferred
on this occasion. She was bound from the North with
coal, and the captain of the Devonshire Lass reports that
in the gale of the 11th inst., he saw four vessels driving
over the Break, and among these is supposed to have been
the missing brig. Some of the ship's company including
the mate, were of Weymouth ; but the master was from
Poole.

drunkenness was permitted, and that there was riotous
