LONDON ORPHAN ASYLUM.
An excellent dinner was un Monday given to the sup.
poi tent of this valuable Institution, at the City of Lou-
don.favern. It was numerously attended, and wr should
suppose that upwards of SOO were present. Mr. Thomas
Wilson, M. P., presided in the absence of the Lord
Mayor, the nun-attendance of the Chisel Magistrate, as
we afterwards understood, was to be attributed wholly to
a mistake, it being his full imtention to have complied
with the wishes of the managers of this institution, and
to have taken the chair. The cloth having been removed,
the usual toasts were proposed and drank. On " The
Royal Fancily" been given front the chair, it was received
with enthusiasm, accompanied with loud cries of "'Flee
Queen, the Queen," and hisses. " The memory of the
Duke of Kent, the patron of the Asylum, was drank in
silence, and was succeeded by "The prosperity of the
Lomita' Orphan Asylum." In proposing this latter toast,
Mi. W ilson expressed Isis high approbation of the insti-
tutiusi. It was but seven stunt years NiIICV its commence-
ment, and he hoped it was now established on • firm
foundation. Its object, the support of the Iriendless or-
phan, to give food, clothing, mid education to those help-
less beings, merited, and he was satisfied would receive,
the patronage of every feeling heart. 'l•he number of
us pilaus tit st supported by this institution was only four,
but by the liberality of the public, that number had been
nue. increased to 9:c. At about nine o'clock the Lord
Mayor 'imed the room, and was accused with loud
