THE CHARTIST 1/ISTURBANCEB.—Notarithatanding
the iatention of the government to put down all processions
or open-air meetings in the metropolis, the chartists but
night gave notice that it was their intention to meet in •
body on Monday next a: Bishop Bonner's-fields. Coenlars
were sent by the earcu tire to the secretaries of the chartist
body, and they have determined, in spite of all resistance on
the part of the authorities to meet at half past 2 o'clock, and
to cone' ode by 6 o'clock if possible. At • meeti, g which
took place last night in the South London Chartist Ilan,
Webber.street, Blacktriars.road, atter an address from the
chairman, • number of persons surrounded a party who ap-
peered more respectable than themselves, and bad entered
the room apparently out of curiosity', when the rabble pre
vent to the most violent ernthets. One cried out, Here is •
government spy ;" another said, " Then turn him out ;"
others• " Tnrow bins down stair.," " Kill him," with other
sentences of a much more violent and threatening nature.
Besides the meeting in Bonner's-field• it is said that large
meetings are to take place at Croydon 111511 other pars. In-
formation has been sent to the effect that it is the intention
of the mob to try to liberate the prisoners taken in oonnexion
with the chartist disturbances. If such be attempted it
must prove as great • failure as any of their previous at.
tempts. Last night 800 soldiers were marched into the Peni
teatiary, and are there to remain until after Monday, in
case any attack should be made on that prison. The whole
of the turnkeys and wardens were, at the same time, plated
under arms; and similar precautions have been adopted at
all the other prisons.

111 E lIRITIATI AND FOREIGN SCHOOL SOC: ETT.—
The annual public examination of the girls' school of the
above society took place in the school-room of the institn•
lion in the Borouith.read. The room was densely crowd. d
by the lei.r its of the children. Sir Charles Lemon took the
chair at 11 o'clock. There vete also present Viscount and
VI-count,* Ehrington, the Bishop of Norwich, and several
clergymen of the church of England, with many ladies. The
children went through a strict examination in history, geo-
graphy, arithmetic and botany, their answers on which
subjects gave universal satisfaction. The chairman then ad-
dressed the children, impressing them with the (act that
their future welfire and happinese depended on the know-
ledge they acquired and the habits of mind they accustomed
themselves to during their youth. They were at present
under the fostering care of an excellent and useful maim-
tan, whose object it was to impart to them the benefits of a
mound practical education, and to instil in their minds those
principles of morality and religion which alone confirmed
the enduring basis of happiness in this world and in the
world to come. When they attained the age of maturity
they would have solemn and important duties to perform
not only as mothers themselves, but as the teachers of those
who would thin be entiured to their care; and from what
he bad seen that day be was led to entertain a sincere and
confident hope that the progress and advancement of such
institutions as these, through the instrumentality of the be-
neficial ir.tluence they would exercise over the minds of the
risirg generation, would be the means of checking the
spread of those insurrectionary and rebellious feelings which
were at the present moment spreading themselves through-
out the community, and shaking society to its base. Tke
chairmin concluded by congratulating the children on the
exhibition of their proficiency which they had made that
day, and expressed a hope that each succeeding anniversary
wont! bring to their institution increased and increasing
prosperity. The Bishop of Norwich then proposed the
thanks of the assembly to the chairman, and took occasion
to observe, that he repudiated the notion that knowledge
was opposed to religion. The contrary was the fact, inas-
much as the more extensively knowledge was diffused
amongst the community, the more thoroughly their minds
were adapted for the proper appreciation of the great truths
of Christianity. The vote having been carried and responded
to the c's ildrea sang the national anthem, and the proceed-
ings terminated.
