AMATEUR DRAMATIC PERFORMANCE FOR THE
BENEFIT OF MR. LEIGH HUNT. Before the recent
bestowal of a pension of 200/..a.year, for life, on this
graceful and eloquent writer and excellent man,
several gentlemen connected with literature and art,
had proposed (as we announced a few weeks ago)
another in Lavei it0t,.r0w0r..,Q,,,,,,... in Manchester. and
the whole of the proceeds to the benefit of Mr. Leigh
Hunt. The amateurs joining in this generous project
include various amateurs already widely known to fame
—Charles Dickens, Douglas Jerrold, Forster, and other
literary men ; while from the ranks of artists, stand
forth George Cruikshank, James Leech, Frank
Stone, and others. To these gentlemen it seemed
that a dramatic performodemance

performance could be achieved
by amateurs, themselves associated with letters and art.
it would be such an appeal to the public by literature, on
behalf of literature, as gr. Hunt might naturally regard
with no other feeling than Pride." Mr. Dickens states
Mr. Hunt's services and claims in the following
words :—,, Air. Leigh Hunt, one of the moat genial
and graceful writers ill the language•
, who has ever
, whose added claim upon
mthseelves ; and,
laboured for the welfare and happiness of mankind; who,
in poetry, and in prose has charmed and improved hun.
dthr is, that he has suffered in their
time, and upon the generation Coming on,
that he has
taught them, better

read, and where to find
themselves in the cheerful and patient

his whole life and character: Mr. Leigh Hunt, grown
grey in such service, is in unprosperous circumstances,
and in bad health. He needs respite frOm labour, and
relief from anxiety?' .Notwithstanding the gratifying
intelligence that a pension has been at last settled upon
Mr. Leigh Hunt, the amateurs still adhere to their
generous determination to give the of Man
cheater and Liverpool an opportunity of substantially
expressing their gratitude to him for his numerous pro-
ductiens in various departments of literature—especially
ilyartihc,e deesscaPpitnivec,reitpiicC,,sni'in *deal analysis, and in
and dramatic poetry. • From our
advertising columns, it will be seen that, a communica-
tion having been received from Mr. Dickens, a meeting
of gentlemen of Manchester favourable to the object, is
to be held this (Wednesday) afternoon, at half•past
three o'clock, at the Clarenoe Hotel, over which Mr.
Charles Swain has consented.to preside, for the purpose
of taking steps to aid in carrying out the 'generous in.
