NATIO.VA L SOCIETY..
-,...._.
The Annual General Meeting of the National Society for the
adoration of the Poor in the Principles of tile Established Church,
was beld yorterday at the Board Room of the Society for Promot-
ing Christian Knowledge, No. 67, Liecola's Inn-fields.
His Grace the Archbishop of Catrrt nnvRY tilled the Chair,
eed wee supported by the Bishop of London, Litchfield and Co-
'MOS': Both and Wes, St. Asaph's. Chichester, Gloucester,
Chanel, Landed', Exeter, Oxford', and Down and Connor ; Lord
Kenyon, Sir J. Las ham, General Thornton, the Dean of Peter-
beyough, the Data of Carlisle,. Arehdeaconfous, Archdeacon Hay-
key, and ether Ho(+letneo and Gentlemen.
Tile Societfs Annual Reoort was read larch* Secretary (the
i
r ' Rev. Dr. Waltrialee.') It enhW fully into the proceedings of the
past pen, and noticed the beneficial results which nad already
. attests teem its operations, and the prospect which' the future held
i Sal of ailbrdiog increased opportuntues for promoting the objects
of the Society. It further stated :hat the number of children (male
0 and female) at present receiving the advantages of education in the
Society's schools, amounted to 480,000. The Report next adverted
• so the state of the funds, which were stated to be in a most Sourish-
lag condition. A sum of 16,0004 at present remained in the Tent-
t sifter's band, available to the purposes of the Society. The great
Its tacrease in the Society's funds was attributed to the King's Letter.
When the Secretary concluded, the CHAIR/UN rose and ob-
.
' moved that it only remained fee him to congratulate the Society on
' the progress which had been made, as well es on thellourishieg
vats of the funds. The Report which bed been read must have
base heard with satisfactioa by every individaatwho felt an interest
0 • in the education of the poor and the advancement of the Established
. - Religion.
Lieutenant-General Tan:moron coxedved that the system of
education pursued in the Society's schools was deficient in one im-
portant particular. The gide were Instructed in works of industry;
ouy this was omitted In the boys' schools, and the effect was, that
upon the completion of their education they came away knowing
very little that could do them service. He felt confident that much
of that juvenile delinquency which had now arisen to each an
alarnaine extent, was to be ascribed to the imperfect system of
education adopted in the Society's schools. It was under the im-
pression that works of Industry were to be taught in the schools
that he had first become a sdbecriber to the Institution, and he
torbed the consideration of this subject would no longer be post-
poned, but that a system of education, entbracing the important
point to which he referred, would be shortly introduced into the
Society's eentral schools, which were naturall7 enough looked to
as axamplet.
Lord KENYON rote to propose the first Resolution. He said, in
allusion to what had fallen from the Gallant General, that one of
the objects contemplated by the Society was to promote the prin.
caplet and practice of industry amongst the poor ; but, consistent
w.th other and not less important views, it was impossible to intro-
duce works of irduitry into the Society's central schools, which, as
the Gallant General justly observed, wire looked to by the whole
country as examplt . The success of the Society's operatAs was
clear and palpable, and, for his part,-he could never else out of
view the manifold advantages wnich must arise from that connee-
non between the parochial clergy and the poor which this Society
was so well calculated to promote. The Noble Lord, in conclusion,
proposed a vote of thanks to the President of the Institution, the
Arplalstiep of Canterbury.
II 3 Grace the Archbishop of CANTERBURY returned thanks.
1 Os Bishop of Dowse and Cosaroa rose to propose a vote of
Zikto the General Committee. In allusion to what had fallen
due Gallant General (Thornton). he took occasion to observe,
tint if jurertile depravity was bumming close extensive, it ought
Doi to be attributed to the system of education pursued by the So-
ddy, as it welsh, bolotend that few instances had occurred where
• leAindisaLs educated under this Socieyeste connoted of mime
• ' before the public tribunals. The system of education adopted by
she Somety wu founded upon religion, and therefore upon morality ;
and it was much more likely to produce conversion and reform than
so entionraire depravity.
Mr. hlohmaouc remarked, is corroboration of what had fallen
from true last speaker, that amongst the individuals confined in the
Perateduary it was found that the proportion of those who had re-
ceived any thing like education was comparatively small.
The key. Dr. CREAN said, that the district in which he UNA
(Sunderland) was very populous. There were 10,000 persons in
hes own pariah, and h.! had never heard even • single instance Where
ona 'nth, ilual educated in the Society's schools had been publicly
iniqwn is a delinquent.
The Dean of CARLISLE stated, that in the pariah where the
Gallant General resided, the Soviet 's schools were in full vigour,
and he must say be had never heard of a number of young persons
naming out so well, as thole that had been educated in St. George's
eciettola.
(}sacral THCIINTI`.I said the system of uniting industry and
education was adopted at St. George's school,, and from such a
system he was most ready to admit nothing coned arise but good.
The Caustics* said, rho only. difference of opinion was, whir-
dm the present system led to juvenile delinquency, as had been
hinted by the 'Gallant General. 'This was a very serious canal.
deration, and sue which rendered it desirable that the Gallant lie-
neral should vete any fits in his possession which would serve to
elucidate it. He (the Chairman) had heard from the Judges that
um, bad asoartaitied that crime was of comperatively rare occur-
trace amongst those who had been educated at the National
Schools- It was Cot to be expected that those children shoula he
immustLite. If we looked amongst those who had all the benefits
of id:ninon and a high station in society, it would be fcund that
none were tree from whit but the concurring testimony of all drew
us to the inference, that a religious and moral education is the best
preservative of the human 'Mod.
Mr. Gives, ALP. expressed his coccuirence in the sentiments
so ably enforced by the ker. Chairman.
The Bkhop of Lox Dow said, the benefits derived from the So-
ciety's Schools in the neighbourhood of themetropolis were very
great, aud cootinued withoot ilimiqutioy• •He was present at the
saasithaticns in those Schools, which led him to the conclusion
thuoht system had attained to that degree of excellence which loft
nothing to wish but that it shoyld be maintained. His Lordship
concluded by musing a vote of thanks in the 'treasurer (Mr. J.
Wisner), which was peeped with acclamation.

other antiquities. Her Royal Highness and infants entered
their travelling carriage from the cathedral, and proceeded
