NATIONAL SOCIETY.

The Public will derive equal gratification with
ourselves on learning that by the pious munifi-
cence of one of the earliest and most zealous sup-
porters of this admirable establishment for the
Education of the Poor in the principles of the
National Church, ample provision has now been
made for their regular attendance upon the public
Worship of Almighty GOD in a Chapel of their
own. Ely Chapel, heretofore belonging to the
Bishop of that See, but alienated front it for many
years, has been bought and presented to the So-
ciety for the accommodation of the Children edu-
cated under its superietendance, their parents
and relations, and other persons resident in the vi-
cinity. On Sunday last the public appropriation
of it to this highly interesting purpose took place,
the Lord Bishop of the Diocess anti the venerable
the Archdeacon of London lending their valuable
services to preach on the occasion ; the former in
the forenoon and the latter in the afternoon.—
Their Graces the Archbishops of Centel bitty and
York, their Lmdships the Bishops of Ely and
Llandeff, together with several other Members of
the General Committee of the Society, and other
respectable characters attending. This distin-
guished countenance afforded to the lostiortioa
on a solemnity which may be considered as its
Thanksgiving Day, for having beer' pet in pos-
session of the grand desideratum for perfecting
its benificent plan of Religious Instruction will be
received, we persuade ourselves, by the Public,
as a highly gratifying communication, as it must
be telt that the prospetity even of the best of
causes is very far from being inconsiderably pro-
moted by the sanction and zeal of authority; nor
will less gratification be derived from the circum-
stance which we are enabled to state, that the at-
tendance of the children at bog' services was so
nearly, complete, that in the forenoon only 14
formed the whole list of absentees, and 10 in the
afternoon, and that a numerous-attendance of the
children's parents and relations occupied the seats
set apart for their accommodation. Of the im-
pressive sermon delivered by the Lord Bishop, we
cannot better convey the sentiments we entertain,
in common, we are sure, with all who beard it,
than by expressing our earnest hope that his Lord-
ship will have the kindness to allow the public at
large to profit by its wholesome truths and con-
vincing reasoning, as it contained, in eloquent
and well pointed arguments, an abstract, as it were,
of the character of the Society itself ; and a de-
scription of the principles which are essential to ,
give to education that influence upon the mind
and conduct which alone can make it a blessing to
individuals and to society.
Of the venerable the Archdeacon's sermon we
must bear the same testimony, conveyed in the
same terms of hope and solicitation. It fol-
lowed up, in that strain of genuine piety for
which he is so eminently remarkable, the sub-
ject of the Bishop's discourse, enforcing the
necessity of general Education, and the set-
ing forth the aptitude of the National So-
ciety to perform efficiently this most important
li public service, and it concluded with an impres-
sive address to the Children, rendered doubly
affecting by the feeling with which it was deli-
vered.—Combined with the inculcation of Bonn!'
religious principles, is the inculcating those of
loyalty also. This induces us to notice another
festival, annually celebrated by the National So-
ciety, and accidentally this year on the day suc-
ceeding the above religious celebration; we Mean
the BirthAay• of the Sovereign, its munificent
Patron, the which, through the bounty of the
Members of the General Committee, and Ihe gemd
store of roast beef and plumb•pudding, to which
upwards of 700 children sat down at one o'clock,
was welcomed and cheered as warmly within the
walls of the Central School, as in any one of the
many social rejoicings held on the occasion. The
smiling faces both of the parents and children,
which formed the coup-d'ccil of this exhilirating
scene, would, we are sure, have gone very far to
have revived loyal sentiments in the heart of any
but an incurable Radical.

The following is au extract of a Letter from
Liverpool, received by an eminent commtreo
house in' the City :
" Liverpool, April 22.-1 n cons goelic..e or an
improvement in the demand for go,'s at Man-
chester, we have had a brisk market here for
cottons. The sales of the week exceed 15,000
bags ; the prices are a quarter to half a pound
higher." . .

On Monday last, e meeting of the inhAbitant3
of Perth was held in the Sheriff Coort•igoot, tor
the purpose of taking into consideration :he
present ditiressed state of the labouring cl,tbses
of that place, particularly of the opts.' ive weavers.
After some discussion, it was agreed to apponit a
new committee, who should he empowered to re-
ceive additional subscriptions, to be applied in
such a manner as might be deemed hest caleql,ited
to give employment to the industrious.--(Edin-
burgh Courant, April 24.)
Thisticwood and Brunt, since their conviction,

have been put in irons. Jogs, being much indis-
posed, is at present exempt from that species of
coercion. This wretched man is extremely nerv-
ous, and at present evinces little of th.►t hardi- -
hood which, from the evidence, on his 'vial, ap-
peared to characterise his conduct or the secret
meetings in Fox-court. The irons placed noon
the prisoners are similar to those put on all cepi.
(al felons. Thistlewood'sermed to be much n►or
fled when they were placed upon him. Brunt says
that he has not been ". lega•ly convicted." He,
as well as Mistletrood, were yesterday removed
to the condemned cells. IT: sterday one of the
prisoners, whose name we ►hall not at present
mention, attempted to secrete a knife, under his
wais►cont, previously to corning into Court. It
appears that, llr.
__ROWN has given orders that
such weapons should be kept' out of their reach ;
but one of the keepers, who 11441 been eating
some bread and cheese, accidentally laid his knife
down, and the prisoner seized the opportunity of
endeavouriag to conceal it.—(illurning Paper.)
