On Thursday lea was held the Anniversary
Meeting of the Gnardianiof the Asylum for Female
Orphans. Tire Gmtleasen of the Lamlietin Volun-
teers, under Col. Slade, were drawn up to r..ceive
ill- Duke of Cambridge, trader arms. His Royal
H•ghness, the President of the Charity, entered the
Chapel at one o'clock, attended by his Grace the
Archbishop of Canteresuzy, the Lcrd Bishop of
Quebec, the Earl of Mansfield. Lord Redstock, the
Lord Mayor, the Rev. Dr. Wyse, all the Clergy of
the Establishment, the Committee, and several of
the Guardians ; the Seimon cis the occasion was
preached isy the Rev. Dr. Mountain Lard Bishop
of Quebec. It Vrolli a most judicious, impressive,
and eloquent discourse; placing charity on its true
foundation, aril most judiciously apparel to the
cawe of Female Orpha.a. The effet4 no a nume-
rous and respetlable congregation wea what might
justly be impeded; for the collection eras the largest
ever made nu such an occasion, and amounted to
above 1201. The prates at the f:Jaajislasieset seers held
by the Earl ef Mansfield, dm** tract Railstock,
and the Lord Mayor; trlfice•Presidenuotad Mr.
Wright. as Treasurer. Afterwards a very twine-
reus and respeflable assembly dined together at the
Freemasons Tavern, where His Royal Highness
the Duke of Cambridge presided, and won every
heart by the suavity of his manners, the condescen-
sion of his deportment. and the warmth of the zeal
which he expressed for the Charity, which he die-
tinguishes so honourably by his Royal Patronage.
After the usual public toasts, his Grace the Arch-
bi hop gave the health of the Duke of Cambridge,
as President; observing, in a very elegant speech,
that that Charity must flourish whilst it deserved,
and should continue to deserve, the patronage of His
Royal Highness.
The Duke returned his acknowledgments in a
most graceful manner ; avowing the cordial satis-
faftion he felt in the appeintnsent lie then filled ;
and added, " that since he met the Guardians, at
the last Anniversary, he had attended particularly
on the business of the Asylum, and the more he
saw into the nature of the charity, the better he was
satisfied with it ; and lie assured the Guardians that
it should always find in him a friend and a pro-
terflor." It is needless to say, that His Royal
Highness's obliging s:ntiments were received with
the most lair urous applause. The Marquis at
Blandford returned thanks in the name of the Vice-
Presidents. The company were animated but with
one spirit of loyalty, of cordial respeft for the
Duke, and of zealous elation: for the poor orphans.
A greater number of Guardians were made, than
were ever known 011 a single day before. The
Treasurer's different reports, including the collec-
tion at the Chapel, amounted to more than 7001.
Me . Incledon and Taylor contributed their best
exertions in the most liberal manner. 'flie spirit of
liberality was so general, that on a very jusfcious
suggestion being made that the number of the
Stewards should be increased to eight or ten, the
following Gentlemen were appointed for the next
year; lli ht Hon. the Lord Mayor (241 time), Rev.
T. Bracken (2d rime), J. W. Buckle, Esq. Dr. C.
