-• • -•- • •

—The annual meeting of the subscribers and friends of this
institution was held yesterday afternoon in the theatre of
the United Service Institution, Whitehall-yard, Sir W.
Codrington in the chair. The report stated that the number
of girls in the Home was 174, of whom there had been
admitted since the let March, 1866 by election on the
foundation, 36; as endowed scholar, 2; as regimental
scholars, 3; ae boarders, 20 • making a total of 61. Five
girls remained to be admitted out of the 20 entered on
the Ilth of May last. Since the above date 47 girls had
quitted the Home, viz., for service, RI ; withdrawn, 9 ;
transferred, 1 ;to the Home and Colonial Institution, 1
struck off, 2 ; died, 1 ; total, 47. The sanitary condition of
the institution had been excellent. The cstof maintenance
continued high, the avenge of the year being 191.125. 2;d.
and IT. 50. for that of the past three years. During
the past year death had removed one of the largest bene-
factors of the institution, Major-General J. R. Gordon,
late of the Royal Engineers. In the year 1862 be presented
to the Home the sum of 1,1421. 16e., Three per Cent. Con-
sole, from the filtered of which, according to his desire,
rewards to girls for proficiency in industrial requirements
were provided. The report, on the motion of the Rev. Mr.
Langniede, seconded by Colonel Weston, was carried
unanimously. Major-General Boileau was elected chair-
man of the committee for the ensuing year. A resolution,
introduced by Major-General Boileau, proposing the
establishment of a scholarship in perpetuity, to be called
"The Powys Keck Scholarship,, was unanimously
ad?pted, and the proceedings terminated.
WORKING MEN'S CLUB AND INSTITUTE UNION.—
The fifth annual meeting was held yesterday afternoon, in
Exeter-hall. In the absence of Lord Brougham, who was
unable to be present owing to his great infirmities, the
chair was taken by Lord Lyttelton. The report, an
abstract of which was read by the Rev. Mr. golly, the
secretary, stated that the number of working men's clubs
and institutes of the existence of which the council were
at present aware was two hundred and sixty-two. But as
they were frequently hearing, accidentally, of the estab-
lishment or the existence of club, previously unknown to
them, these figures must be taken only as an approxima-
tion to the truth. Judging by experience, the number
actually now in operation would be about two hundred
and eighty or three hundred. According to returns received
from 114 clubs, the number of members varied from 1,312
and 1,000 down to 27, giving as average of 171 members
to each club. This was an increase on last year, when the
average was 152 for each club. If the same average be taken
for those clubs that had not sent in returns (and some
of the Scotch clubs which were among the latter had very
high numbers) they had a total of about 43,700 men belong-
ing to the clubs whose existence was known to the council.
Of the 114 clubs sending returns sixty-nine reported them-
selves as self-supporting or very nearly so, and of these fifty.
three were entirely self-supporting. If there was the same
proportion among those that had not sent in returns they
should have a total of about 162 clubs self-supporting, or
very nearly so, at the present time. In these 114 clubs sending
returns there had been 149 educational dunes in operation
during the past winter. These however were to be regarded
as a subsidiary though very important element in the
operations of the clubs. Thirty clubs reported that provi-
dent societies of various kinds had either been formed
by their members or held their meetings at the club.
Nearly all statedthat they had had various lectures and en-
tertainments during the six winter months, amounting to
244 lectures and 1,076 entertainments for the 114 clubs, or
probably 616 lectures and 2,741 entertainments for the
whole number of clubs and institutes during the past
winter. The number of books in the various libraries of
the clubs amounted to 51,436. The games, &c., provided
included chess, draughts, dominoes, tactics, bagatelle,
skittles, bowls, gymnastics, cricket, quoits, boxing gloves,
football, &c. The report on the motion of the Rev. Mr.
Wslrond, of St. Mary, Charterhouse, was unanimously
adopted, and resolutions in furtherance of the objects of
the meeting were proposed and spoken to by Sr John
Bowring, Mr. Eykin, M.P., Hon. A. Herbert, Mr. Hodson
Pratt, and others. The president (Lord Brougham) was
re-elected

RITUALISM.—The lay committee on ritualism of
the Church Association have resolved upon oonvening a
public meeting at St. James's-hall, on the 27th, to give
exprewion to the general feeling against the continued
spread of ritualistic practices in the church of England,
and in support of the Clerical Vestments Bill now before
the House of Lords. Dr. M'Neile, of Liverpool, and
several influential laymen, have promised to attend, and
it is expected that some line of action on the ritualistic
suartion will be proposed at the meeting.
