ST. T►IARTIN'S PARISH.

On Tuesday, a most respectable Meeting of the
friends of this Institution, amounting to about
200 pezrsons, dined together at, the Freemasons
Tavern, Mr. HENRY DaumaoND, in the Chair'
In 'the anti-room, were stationed nearly tive-hulli,
dred Children, who are :ready enjoying, tiir"
its means, the blessing of an honest and osou
'education. Troia so gratifying an introduction,
the company might truly sit down to dinner virit.le
an appetite to relish their entertaiMent, which,
is but justice 'to the rewards and the !louse; to
say, was in everyrespect excellent and well'
conducted.'

After the- customary loyal toasts, Arch.
deacon POTT (Vicar of St.lllartin's) proposed
" Success to the Institution," which was duly h°'
n,oured. lie ,then, as Treasurer to the CharitY;'
made a report of its state and progress, ‘yhich be.
prefaced with some excellent remarks on the
inestimable adv'antages to • the rising 'genera'
tion, whom it was the object of the Establish"
went to protect and educate in the paths.of virtue.
Ite dwelt with fervour and energy on the benevo:
levee of the design, and detailed the encouragement
which had attended it, and' especially from the
Female sex, who in this, as on every other tender
relation otlife, had set an example of universal zea'•
and assiduity in promoting the cause of humanitY.
After this address, which was alike honourable t°
the speaker as a man and a Christian, the Secre."
tary received the voluntary .subscriptions of the
company, -which amounted to upwards of :220;
included in which liberal benefaction we notice'
with pleasure a collection made by the Ladies
the gallery, and five guineas from the musieg'
Gentlemen present, in addition to the gratulto°s
exertion of their talents.

The health of the Chairman, of Mr.Archdeacoll
Potty and of the Rev. Mr. Embry, of St. Pdars
Covent-garden, Were severally drank with great
' applause, from their having taken so earnest 33
intetest in behalf of the'Charity, to which these
Gentlemen returned•snitable thanks. The health'
of Messrs. Fyntnore and Clarke, who had giver'
their professional assistance, and filled the office
of Secretaries, without remuneration, was al'°
drunk, with a handsome compliment to them for
their assiduous and-constant attention in advalW
ing the prosperity of the Schobl.
After a day spent in the utmost harmony, an
enlivened by some delightful glees by Alessr,v;
Leets, Hawes-, Goss, Parry, Master Turk, &c.
Chairman retired, and was succeeded by Mr. 1331
gleish, who rallied a number of the most convy
vial of the Company, and kept up the social Cfr.
joynient to a late hour. •
We cannot take- leave of this subject without
again adding our tribute in favour of an institutia:
which is calculated so essentially to promote till
cause of morality and virtue : and, indeed, Whet
we glanced our eye over the assembled multitude
of Children at the Meeteing, we could not heat
being most forcibly impressed with the deliglitfl4
idea that all of them thus rescued from't he Mainl
of ignorance', many of them from the snares of vier'
•
and some of them from the horrors of crime, svfr
likely to -be led through a youth of religious 111,1
Struction, ton life of rectitude in this whrld,.4°
of immortal beatitude in the next.
