We observe by the Liverpool papers, that Sweeny,
the American• Banjo player, is performing at the Theatre
Royal to crowded houses; and although he has had several
imitators, the Liverpool public have shown they know how to
discriminate between original talent and
paltry imitation.
ANIMALS' FRIEND SOClETY.—This—This
praiseworthy 'lnstitution is going on prosperously with its
goodly cause. Messrs. Ratcliffe and Bail*, the zealous con-
stables of the Society, have been very active during the past
week. They have prosecuted several cases of wanton cruelty,
and their active energies have been highly
appreciated by
the magistrates. The provincial secretaries have also done
much in stopping the progress of badger-baiting, dog-fight-
ing, and cock-fighting at Birmingham, Wolverhampton,
Worcester, Derby, Nottingham, and Richmond, Surrey, and
have held several large Ineetings for the purpose of dissemi-
nating the important objects of this benign Association.
UNIVERSITY COLLEGE.---OD Wednesday the annual
meeting of the Proprietors of University College, Gower-
street, took place at the Lecture Theatre of the Institution ;
the Right Hon. the Earl of Auckland in the Chair The
Secretary read the Report, which commenced with a state-
ment of receipts and expenditure for the past year. The
• . ,
amount of fees received from students in the College was
7,2211. Bs. 4d. ; from the junior school, &c., 4,4451. 13s. 6d
from the hospital practice, 2,469/. 15s. ; donations, 500/.
These and sundry other items made the receipts of the year
22,354/. 18s. sd. On the side of disbursements there were—
Payments to professors, 5,0291.165. Bd. ; payments to masters
in the junior school,
_3,699/. 10s. Bd.; to the hospital,
2,4691. 15s. • ordinary payments on the College account,
3,5301. 9s. 4d. After deducting some other claims, there re-
mained in the hands of the Treasurer 5551. 2s. 9d. The
number of students for the year had been as follows :—ln the
faculty of medicine, 324 ; in the faculty of arts, 158 ; being
ten less than during the session 1841-2. In. the junior
school there were 380 boys, being twenty-five less than
during the session 1841-2. The amount of fees received had
been :—ln the faculty of medicine, 4,827/. 18s. 4d. ; in the
facUlty of arts, 2,399/. 10s. ; in the junior school,
4,4151. 13s. 6d. Some changes had been made in the pro-
fessorships during the year, in consequence of the retirement
of Professor Potter, and the death of Professor Kidd. The
credit of the College had been well sustained at the Uni-
versity, about three-fifths of the exhibitions, scholarships,
&c., having been gained by students of University College.
A donation of 5001. had been received through Lord
Brougham. The Hon. Colonel Leicester Stanhope sub-
mitted three resolutions, the object being the appointment of
a person to read prayers and the Scnptures daily in the
College, no compulsory attendance being required. The
third resolution affirmed that the College had failed to
realise the object for which it was established, and that it
was desirable to make it a family as well as a day school.
Mr. Hutton and Mr. Warburton,. M.P;, opposed the resolu-
tion, which, for want of a seconder, fell to the ground. The
following noblemen and gentlemen were elected to fill the
various offices for the ensuing year: President, Lord
Brougham. Vice-President, the Earl of Auckland. Treasurer,
John Taylor, Esq., F.R.S. Council—M. Clarke, Esq., W. D.
Christie, Esq., Karl Fortescue, James Heywood,)Esq., S. J.
Loyd, Esq., James Thornely, Esq., M.P. Auditor—Thomas
Alers Hankey, Esq. •
PAUPERISM. IN MARYLEEONE.--It was stated on
Thursday,in the course of an inquest, that there were in Mary-
lebone workhouse 2,165 persons, 300 of whom were labouring
under asthma, and 15 under acute bronchitis.
IMPROVEMENTS AT WINDSOR.—Mr. `Tebbott, auc-
tioneer to her Majesty, has just received...instructions from
the Commissioners of 'Woods and Forests to sell forthwith
(preparatory to the ground tieing cleared to carry into effect
the extensive improvements contemplated by the Crown) the
whole of the materials of her Majesty's Upper Mews, on the
'western side of St. Alban's-street, erected in the reign of
George the Third. The. Woods and Forests have recently
purchased several houses on the Castle side of Thames-street,
and are in treaty for the purchase of many others in the same
vicinity, which will be razed to the ground, in order, ulti-
mately, to widen this part of the public thoroughfare, and
thus to carry into effect the original plans contemplated by
George the Fourth. It is expected that the now vacant
space of ground in Sheet-street, upon which formerly stood
the Royal Lower Mews, will be let by the Crown on long
building leases for the erection of a crescent of first-rate
houses, now so much in request in the town of Windsor.
Mr. William Farren was among the promenaders
in Regent-street on Thursday. It will gratify the admirers of
this unrivalled artist to learn that he appears to have re-
gained his usual health.
