The LORD MAYOR then, proposed the following
toast " Prosperity to the General Pension So-
ciety." There was, perhaps, no city in the world
whieh abounded Wore in ctrit-ritable institutions
than the city of London. The imagination seemed
there to have been stretched to its utmost in
bon-
ing out the means of alleviation for every species
of distress. It was only

tiowas mutt el‘ie the view to all speculation in

Activity with which it was supporierl wtre mani-
fest from the-shoo period of its exist,:nce, for
though it had been established for little more than
two years, it now ranked with many charities of a
much more. ancient date. The object was such as
must secure the approbation ofevery man. There
were few who had not experienced the reverses of
life. Some who were fortunate at one period, were
now, perhaps. by a change of circumstances, and
by a course of events not within their controul,
reduced to distress, and in what better way could
a portion of-the wealth of the fortunate be be-
stowed than in relieving such as were in misery'?

so distinguished for its support of every benevo-
lent institution, would nut be backward iu stip-

porting this.

His Lordship returned tbanks, and recom-

STATE OF RELIGION IN CANADA.

• A Pihlic Meeting was held yesterday at ,the
City of ',notion Tavern, respecting the state of
Religion in the two Canadits„where•l6o,ooo souls
are without relieions instruction. At one_ci'c!oe,k
the Rev. 1)r. Watton took the Chair, in the ab-
sence of Charles Giant, The Chairman was
supported .hy the Rev. Mr. Easton, t.f lontreal,
the Rev. Mr. Maddox, and other Gentlemen.
The Chairman called the attention of the Meet-
ing to the vast importance of the object in %iew,
which was to
~send Evangelical Mihjsters to that
immense tract of Country, the twOCanadas, wiih-
ow distinction of sect or denomination.

The Rev. Mr. Easton, who has lately arrived
from Montreal, addressed the Meetiag at some
length on the resew state of the two Canadas.
He stated that the Canadas, with an extent of
1000 miles, had only 38 Ministers; that the
,
peo-
ple were warmly attached to their, ts.,Algion, but
that the Gospel was scarcely anywhere preache‘l,
and public. worship was there unknown. The
rev. Gentleman further stated, that Upper Canada
was chiefly a Protestant country, but that nut I out
of 10 received religious instrtiction. and expatiated
on the utility of sending nut Ministers to rescue
them trout approaching paganism, and keeping,
alive their affection fur the mother country.—
Funds would be wanted to forward Missionaries
thither, and he had no doubt that the inhabitants
would soon take upon themselves the expeuce of
styporting the persons sent for that object.
The Rev. Dr. Maddox, the Rev. Mr. M'Cleod,
and other gentlemen warmly espoused the object
of the Meeting, and a series of Resolutions were
unanimously passed in furtherance' of this desir-
able abject.
