purpose of presenting to their secretary, Slr. H. F.
Richardson, a testimonial in honour of and to record
his services on behalf of the charity. About 40 gen-
tlemen, including the principal officers of the charity,
partook of a most sumptuous entertainment, provided
by Messrs. Bathe and Breach. The bill of fare was ad-
mirable, and the wines perfection. The testimonial,
which was presented in due form and appropriate
terms, consisted of a magnificent and richly-chased
centre ornament, the base of which was in burnished
silrer. From the base, supported by the trunk of the
acanthus, rested the figure of Charity, with her attri-
butes. Surmounted by these rested a vase bearing the
exotics which art had, at this season, brought to a sem-
blance of perfection. The base of the pedestal IN as
comprised of three compartments. In the first were
engraved the armorial bearings of the individual ho-
noured, Mr. 11. F. Richardson ; in the second was a
highly complimentary inscription ; and in the last com-
partment of the tripod was a memorial of the presen-
tation, and the names of the committee and subscribers.
Mr. H. F. Richardson, on the presentation of the tes-
timonial, acknowledged the compliment in feeling and
appropriate terms. The evening was spent in the utmost
hilarity and good feeling, both of the latter being ma-
terially aided by the vocal efforts of Messrs. Bruton and
Martin.
