Asylumt for educating and siippering such Chil-
dren of Soldiers, Sailors; and i'viarines, natives of
SeOtl'antl; as cannot he admitted into the Royal
!Institutions of Chelsea and Greenwich., took place
nn Saturdiy last, in the ricemasous• TA veto.—
The. Chair was: filled by.the Duke of Youk j and
the Mike of KB NT, President of the Institution,
was at •the head of one. of the tables.
,The Meet-
ing was pretty numerous, though not 50 taunt so
as was expected, chiefly, as ‘V'e 00,teNtO0d, froo/
Loh, Lyndrich, and a number of Military Gen-,
tleinen,• friends to the. Institution, having been
.engaged at the.Militnry Club, The Gallery was
filled by Ladies who Lontiitrerl the Meeting With
•
their presence .during 'the greater part of the
• • • .
evening.
Alter drinking the usual loyal toasts,

Sir AIICHIRALD MACDONALD proposed the Vice
Pltron,.".The Duke of York," whose exertions
iifthe cause of •the Institution, he said, entitled
'him to thegratitade of every native of Scotland.
The Duke of YORK shortly returned thanks.
The Chairman having proposed " The Cale. •
'flottian Asylum,"
The. Duke- of KENT, as President of the Corpo-
ration, wished to be allowed to mentioa a few
words respecting the object of the Institution.—
After so lung and so sanguinary a war, that the
Children of those who hail fallen in the course of
that war had a strong claim on the gratitude of
their countrymen, was a proposition which could
not be disputed. Scotland 'was known to have
furnished a considerably larger proportion of men
to the Army and Navy, compared to her popela-
thin, than either England or Ireland. He men-
tioned this With a view of establishing the claims
of the Institution, not only on Scotehmen, but
nn the Elnpire at large. Thirty thousand pounds
was the sum fixed, as necessary, previous to the
fooudation of the Corporation ; and from the ra-
pidity with which the 15,000 t. already subscribed,
lied been procured, it was naturally expected that ;
Ihe.wholu sum would soon be filled up. But the
recurrence of war, and• the battle of Waterloo,
had given a new turn to the charities of the Coun-
try; and their progress had not therefore been
commetisot Cite with their expectations. It was,
impossible to loOk back to the battlesof.-Saia-
111111CO, Orates, Toulouse, and Waterloo, with-
out a feeling of pride at the large-shere which the
natives of Scotland had had in these and other
.acrions. Wherever Scotch soldiers and sailors had
been brought into action, they had nobly sustain,
ell the diameter of their country. This rte said,
without nteaning to throw tha least reflection on
the conduct of others. From his having beets so
Wlt a Scotch. Colonel, he had almost. a .elaim to
.itioli'oh•Sentlend as his' peculiar country.
%Vat. DOUGLAS, M. P. in the name' of the '
Directori, Stated, that since their last meeting; a,
Charter for 'the Corporation had been ,obtained,
and the Direbtors had: endeavoured to further the
views of the: institution •in the best manner they
contd. lie was addressing himself then more
particularly to Englishmen, on whom the children
of-those brave urea who had died :iii the wise of
our cotnnion country, had an undoubted claim,
and who always shorn a sympathy for in-
• dig.e TICC wherever that indigence was found. These
chAdren had been left ,deprived of every inheri-
t twice, but the honour of their parents, and the
metnory of their fame.- The proudest monument
thee could raise to those gallant men, was to ile-
Clare themsclves the protectors of their children.
By proving that their generosity was equal to
the valour.of the brave defenders of their country,
• and that these children, if they fell, would be
adopted by that
.Country, they would ensure on
• the part of our Armies -a continuance of that
heroic devotion, by which they hail always been
hitherto distinguished.
';The subscription, we understand, amounted in
all to 9171. of which 4801. consisted of donations,
and the remainder of annual subscriptions.
