in connexion with the settlement, is recorded.

GENEALOGICAL AND HISTORICAL
SOCIETY OF GREAT BRITAIN.

The sixth annual general meeting of this society was
held last night under the presidency of the Earl of Elles••
mere et Bridgewater House. At eight o'clock the splendid
galleries of art and vertu were thrown open for the recep-
tion of the fellows and members, who assembled in hun-
dreds at the appointed time ; and the proceedings appeared
to excite considerable interest and pleasure. Several col-
lections of pedigree and illuminated MSS. were submitted_
and lively conversations took place en the success that had
been attained, and on the important nature of future pro-
ceedings. The report and accounts gave general satisfac-
tion.

It appeared to us a matter of surprise how this society
fulness
attained to such a high degree of patronage and
but awe
'without thrusting itself into public notice ; but we
. were gratified on making ourselves acquainted with its na-
ture and objects.
the ccording to the statements made and the reports given,
a:, society was founded in 1854 by a body of noblemen
geantlemen who were impressed with the idea that,
,atT__
mar associations,
all arts, sciences, and pursuits, had their
t'oni'''pwittiti associations, there was none for the elucidation,
the learaf and illustration of family history. That
one for g institutions ought to rank amongst them
canzontealogical and historical purposes and pur-
suits
hilth truthful doubted, when we consider that
_ll.ie:tory of countries is made up of the
ry of fa
moniy inacewesula bt and that in private collections and com-
and evidences which archives, he the principal documents
tory. We „weregrattrm the secret of our country's his-
society had been d on finding that the labours of the
devoted to the discovery, elucidation, ar-
rangement, illustration 0.,f,
iand rendering available, all those
sources of information
which had hitherto lain concealed ;
the la
and that in this task
associatecos, were aided by upwards of
200 corresponding
consisting of noblemen, cler-
gymen, and gentlemen, who, having great advantages of
access to family collections' kindly . gave their assistance
in genealogical and historical ininquiries and pursuits. In
such inquiries it has too frequentl been a matter of expense
and difficulty,—evenlearned Men have been puzzled
where to go or 0%0 proceed to obtain a so-
lution of some quarY cr great importance in general or
, not astonishing that such
family history. It is, therefore
sPeedily attained so high
a society as this should have so
a degree of usefulness, and have secured to itself such a
distinguished amount of appreciation as appears . to have
been accorded to it during the past six years of its
existence.
The cordial thanks of the council and fellows was given
to the committee of research and the secretary and the
vast assemblage began to retire at 11 o'clock. ,
Amongst the distinguished persons present
we noticed
Lord Farnham, Sir Brook Wm. -Bridges, Hon. Roper Cur-
zon, Sir Archibald Alison, Dr. Henry Christmas, and very
many other celebrities iu the Merely world,
