FEMALE ORPHAN ASYLUM.—The anniversary
festival of this excellent charity was celebrated last evening
at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street. His Royal
Highness the Duke of Cambridge occupied the chair. About
100 friends and patrons of the society sat down to dinner,
among whom were the Lord Mayor, Mr. Kemble, M.l'., Sir
Claudius Hunter, Alderman Farebrother, &c., &c. After
dinner a number of the juvenile proteges of the asylum were
introduced into the gallery, and their voices mingled with
the chorus of the national anthem. The customary loyal
toasts having been duly proposed and responded to, the
Duke of Cambridge rose to give the toast of the evening,
" Success and prosperity to the Infant Orphan Asylum.'
His Royal Highness, in the course of a brief speech, stated
that he had accepted the presidency of the society at the
special request of its cordial patroness, the late Queen
Charlotte, and for a period of forty-two years had . been a
constant supporter of the charity, from whose anniversary
festivals he had hardly on any single occasion been-absent.
The Duke of Cambridge concluded by an earnest appeal to
the company present and the public generally to aid in sup-
porting the institution. The evening's entertainment passed
off in the most satisfactory manner, 1,015/. having been
subscribed in the room._ •
