Tile NarioNAL AID Socierv.—A well-attended
meeting of ladies, promoted by the Mayoress, was held
at the Infant Schoulnom on Saturday afternoon, for
the 'airwave of forming a sub-committee of this tociety,
the object of which in to supplement the arrangements
of the parent *witty and of the Army Medical Depart.
inent, and having for its primary object the supply of
comforts to the temp.. There were one or two gentle-
men present, including the Mayor (Alderman Gregory),
who prceided, Rev.ll. Everett, Captain Nbucel, Maj. w
Hodges, Captain Law, lir. .tigernon Sheridan, Mr.
H. Lk Sliddietoth—The Mayor said the object of the
meeting was to form a sulecommattee to tweet the
National Aid Society. He must confess he was not
very much up in the matter, but he believed the object
of the society was to provide additional clothing and
other amiforte and necessaries for the soldiers and
sailors in the Soudan. One could not hell' thinking
but that it was the duty of the Government, when
they sent out our soldiers and sailors to light our
battles, to tied the neceerary things for their comfort
and welfare; but failing that he was sure they were
glad to get it from other sources. But now that the
ladies of the land had put their hands to the matter,
and taken the thing up' they need not fear for the
mutt. Our soldiers and sailor* deserved every COlll.
fort aad suppwt ; they had been fighting our battle'
against a need .savage foe, and had fit.ed bravely the
terrible dangers or the dessert. Its was quite sure
there present would agree with him they had main-
tained the old pluck of the English soldier, and hail
endeavoured to miutain the honour ,if old England
(Applause.)--The Rev. H. Everett then sle'ke as t''
the objects .4 the meeting. Their first object was
simply to take preliminary step* in order to form a
branch of the society in this town. They had 1/...11
given to undentiend in /1111Isst every other town in
England these branches had bent formed, and there-
fore they did not thiuk it was right, and did not wish it
ever to be said, that I).irchester was ljellindhand in a
ipsd work ef this sort. Therefore they vesy sepely,
be thought, twit upon themselves to Wale "Italian
illtitilari ladle.. to that uteetitig, hoping they would be
able to start • brew* and sat IV Work at once. With
n-gard to what the U4r.T bad said, he would just
meution that many people hit tlie *awe as his Wow
ship did, and lie knew it really was tied dqty .4 the
Gover 1111 l ent to 1 iih• all necessaries for the whine..
.
but lw believed the aim of this society Was simply to
supplionent and to work really and truly under the
sisters of the *shad 1 h•part ment--simply to wad out,
it necessaries so issuch, its little contorts and luxuries
which the Goveruteent towld find itself in a very
dirfieult position, 4 course, to seed out. It wits

feelingly, and testified to his warm sylillatthy with the
society, and he 'wished the branch great succcee.
(Applauw.)—The - Rev. If. Everett said the appeal
would be at sac. niade, and any contributions, large
or suiall, would be received by any of the ladies whose
Willies he had read eut as this coneuittee. In order ti
exi4ain the objects of the society won fully, he stated
it at. 1111.; alit no medical or surgical appliances save
ether and carbolic acid, the subscription.,ing devoted
to the payment .4 trained nurses, hospital coeks,
Whams., spectacles, such articles .4 clothing as are not
stipigied by ties War Office, and any other comforts
the Array Medical I)epartinent may suggest. It is at
present uncertain whether shy doctors will be sent
out by this branch of the society, as that depends not
only upon the need for theni arising, but on the an)ount
of the subricriptione which as yet do not allow it.
There were three pents connected with the practical
working of the society; first, that it only oollecto

seemed to him perfectly remarkable, and he hoped he
should not be considered to be boasting (as he had had
something to do with the schools of the country) if he
remarked on the enormous influence they had had
upon art manufactures. He believed England was
really an artistic country, although it WWI not the
fashion to believe this. Ever since We hilVe had a
history we have been artistic, and this Wa4cominy out
more and more every year. Going lack as far as the
13th century English art work was in great demand
on the continent, and especially he mentioned church
vestments. In the nti. and 111th centurima mr
tapestries were greatly renowned on the continent.
The character 11 OM •iwn cathedrals (though P.Onle of
them were French in plan) were excellent specimens
of English art. These cathedrals emtained remarkable
tombs, equal to anything in Italy, and all .4 which
were (mainlined by Englishmen. He traced the Kir
g•resa of art through the dark and middle ages to the
time when it reached England, when the country
commenced to amass wealth and spend much in art'
twincipally were to be instanced the fine Tudor and
Elizebethan houses winch enriched nearly every
county, and which wen• unique in ev,.ry artistic
particular. In the end of the IStli century art in
England developed L, an enormous extent, this
country ll...sing at that time a mass 14 artistic men,
which inure resembled an outburst .4 artistic talent in
Italy. Art potteries were established, f ded nisei
a e.und hiusmness foundation, in contrast to the heavily
subsidised businesses struml. .tt W.,lverliampton, too,
the skill of the steel workers we.. Me great that the
French had all their swords and Court buttons
from that place ' • but the French Revolution gave it a
serious check. The Government now began to give
evt•ry encouragement, and art manufactures flourishes!
greatly. When the great exhibition was held in 1831,
our manufactures were very indifferent in the matter
.4 art, penile being content to buy their designs fisyn
. the French. A committee of enquiry was held, and
. art school* were established. A fresh start was Made,
and great progress was manifested. To show the
• advance made in recent year., he int•ntioned
the huge industry in Xnias cards carried on in Belfaat
' by Messrs. Marcus Ward, and Co., and which was
• entirely due to the progress made in the local art
school. The Germans recently offered prises .4
thousands of pounds fur card designing, and nearly all
: were taken by English ladies, many of whom were
trained in our art schools, and it was worthy .4 notice
". that these designs were not kr home, but for foreign
markets. He also alluded Li an industry of wMch he
i had an intimate knowledge, the lloulton l'ottery
, Works, at Lambeth, and asserted that, had it not
been for the Lambeth School of Art, lioulton pwtery
. would never have been made. In Sheffield the models
for the iron work were greatly improved by. art
. schoobi, and in that town there is not now a single
foreign designer. Art in that matter had advanced,
if not t:dnerfection, to a very high state. He also
mention the influence of art ill the glass works at
; Sturbridge. It was pleasing to imow there WAX such
, a demand for art work, and consequently
, it paid to produce artistic manufacture... He
; remarked on the small amount allowed for art
; seh.sils, and, illogical as it seemed, the Government
1: only allowed money for the instruction of artisans,
whereas if the higher classes were not educated in
, art there would be no demand for the artisan's work.
He contrasted this with the existing state of things in
ilennany: NothitLitanding this anomaly, however,
it was pleasing to .. that tie sit ietie taste .4 the
country was developing to' an Onornsins t‘toit. It
WM said these oohed* were not doing its work and
werenoteducatingartists, but Nutt'', fifth, or Ilith rate
, artist..; but that they had educated artists had been
remarkably shown, and he mentioned among others
' Jr, l'oynter, 5, Dobson, Arnetead, KJ. Gregory,
Woods, *re. Butler, and .7. I). Watson, all of whom
° had received their Kli.cet ion in heal art scles.ls. Mr.
