had been received with the utmost kindness, and he
could only again assure them that he should-feel bound
to the end of his life to ende.tvour todo everthing in his
power to promote their welfare and prosperity.—
(Cbeers) The Hon. Gentleman then proceeded to bear
testimony to the excellent manner in which the mayor
and corporation of Sunderland diseharged their duties,
and concluded by moving " The Mayor and Corpora-
tion of Sunderland" amidst loud cheers:
LIAYon briefly returned thanks, and expressed
his conviction that the inhabitants of the town were
under the deepest obligations to Mr. Hudson, as with-
out his patronage aid exertions it would have been irn-
poasibL: to have secured tha construction of the docks.
A variety ter appropriate toasts were then drunk,

In the eroding there was a ball at -the Athenmem
Rooms, which was very numerously and respectably at-
tended; and the Hendon Gardens and other popular
places of amusement put forth a host of attractions for
the gratification of their patrons.

In addition to the system cf granting annuitiee, it is proposed (as
soon as a sufficient sum can be collected for that purpose) to build
an asylum a short distance from London fur the aged annuitants.
The generous assistance of the benevolent is earnestly solicited to-
wards this object. the Christian propriety of which it is impossible to
doubt. Aged persons of respectability with small annuities are evi-
dently unable to procure for themselves lodgings at all partaking of
the same character for comfort as their former abodes. In the case
of females whose fortunes have fallen late. decay, there can be no
doubt that this is au intense aggravation of 'their misfortunes, for a
mean lodging in a low neighbourhood, with all its associations of
"Tillery, if Not of crime (as must too often be the case), will indeed
form a heavy source of painful degradation to one whose former lot
has been a cast in the pleasant places." What can be more desir-
able,ahen, than to place such peraonaja comfortable and respectable
dwellings, where the decencies and p eties of life can be pro-
perly maintained, and the old age of the inm preserved from all
these disagreeable circumstances to which we hkve adverted? It
has been considered that the full intention of the Society has scarcely
been produced until this last object has been accomplished.
