ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION

OF THE SOCIETY OF
THE ANCIENT ORDER OF FORESTERS.

The anniversary of the formation of the society of the
" Ancient Order of Foresters," was yesterday commemorated
by a public procession, and dinners in various parts of the
town. The respective societies, connected with the Order,
assembled in Williamson-square at nine o'clock. The pro-
cession, which was formed by ten o'clock, was numerous and
splendid, and took the usual route. It was headed by the 24
high court officers, on horseback, decorated with green and
white sashes and scarlet rosettes, and the Wigan band in uni-
form. These were followed by the banners of lodges, No.
109 and 473, bearing the Foresters' Arms, and appropriate
inscriptions. Then came in the following order :—lnner
beadle, with club; banner, with inscription; chief ranger,
supported by the woodwarders, bearing bows and arrows ;
dispensation, supported by brothers on each side ; secretary
and treasurer, with rolls of paper; sub-chief ranger, in cha-
racter, supported by a brother on each side ; brothers, two-
a-breast, bearing wands, clubs, bows, slings, and other hiero-
glyphic emblems of the society, followed by the outer beadle,
with club of oak.

The Cheshire band and courts No. 479 and 495 were pre-
ceded by a fine illustrative flag, bearing an inscription—" Be-
nevolence, unity, and concord."
The members and officers of this, as also of all the other
courts, were, for the most part, men all neatly attired in
costumes (in which " Kendal green" predominated) of the
celebrated and memorable characters of those who, in bygone
days, loved the "greenwood," and from whose bold and heroic
sports, and gentle and brotherly benevolence, the principle
and title of this society is derived.
The Prescot band headed courts No. 496, 588, 614, and
652, with banners and emblems of the order.
The Liverpool bands were interspersed with the members
of courts of 659, 687, 713, 725, 726, and 732, who appeared
with their full and splendid regalia. The officers were
dressed in fur-bound garbs, on horseback, with sashes and
rosettes ; the members with white aprons, decorated with vine
and oak leaves, silver and gold mounted horns, and other
emblems of the chase and the forest green. One of the flags
bore a representation of Adam and Eve in Paradise ; on ano-
ther• were emblazoned the foresters' arms—crest, a stag's
head ; and amongst the emblems borne were representations
of the tree entwined by the serpent, apples surmounting
wands, &c. Such members of lodges as were not arrayed in
green wore handsome green silk sashes and green rosettes.
Some of the bows carried were of the antique form, and of
polished steel; others were of the English form, of ewe-tree
or lancewood. The wood axes were also numerous. In the
rear of the procession were two robust men, dressed in lamb-
skins, representative of Cain and Abel. Near them came,
mounted on a triumphal car, a " portable arbour," formed of
laurels and other evergreens, and decorated with flowers,
and highly illustrative of the innocence and utility of rural
life. Within the arbour sat in tranquil complacency, a
young shepherd and a young shepherdess, the latter with a
live lamb standinm at their feet and held by a leash ; the former
with a shepherds dog in a similar position. Each carried a
crook. The procession was on the whole , very effective and
attracted much attention,—recalling to the historical reader
the days when the greenwood re-echoed the sound of the
horns of Robin Hood and his merry men.• The societies are,
we are glad to learn in a flourishing condition. After the
procession, they retired to their respective club-rooms, and
passed the remainder of the day in festive recreation.

ANNIVERSARY OF THE
" WALTON FARMERS' BENEVOLENT SOCIETY."

Yesterday, the pleasant village of Walton-on-the-Hill
presented a scene of much bustle and festivity, it being the
anniversary celebration of the formation of that excellent
institution called " The Farmers' Benevolent Society,"
which is very numerous, has been long patronized by many
of the most respectable gentlemen in that neighbourhood,
and the benefits of which have long been widely diffused.
At an early hour the bells of the parish church gave note
of the coming festival, and at ten o'clock, a well-rung peal
was the signal for the assembling of the members, at Mrs.
Stanley's, the Black Horse Inn,—where they soon congre-
gated, with flags gaily flying, and music merrily playing, to
the number of about two hundred and thirty. The area in
front of the inn presented all the lively appearance of a
country fair, plenished with supplies of the far-famed Orms-
kirk gingerbread, cakes, fruit, and hazel nuts,—with abund-
ance of games for the amusement of adventurous urchins
who chose to risk their pence in the hope of gaining large
prizes in the last named article.
At about half-past ten o'clock, the whole society having
formed in marching order, walked in procession to St.
Mary's, Bootle, to attend divine service, the church at Wal-
ton being under repair,—the whole of the south wall having
been removed, and a new stone wall, in a handsome style of
gothic architecture corresponding with the tower, being in
course of erection. At Bootle, the society heard an appro-
priate sermon, by the Rev. Robert Wilson, curate of Walton,
from the Ist Corinthians, 10th chapter, and 24th verse,—
" Let no man seek his own ; but every man another's wealth."
From this passage, the rev. gentleman delivered a most
lucid, beautiful, and truly Christian appeal to his auditory,
whose silent and marked attention was rivetted throughout.
Mr. Lewis ably presided at the organ, and was supported
by an efficient choir.
After leaving church, the society walked through the village
of Bootle, where their respectable appearance excited much
interest and admiration. They were preceded by a large
blue and white flag. Two beautiful small blue silk flags fol-
lowing, each inscribed in letters of gold with the name of the
society, one of them with a gilded wheat sheaf, and the other
with a plough in the centre. Near these were borne on two
poles, a small gilded model of a plough, and a gilded sheaf
of wheat. Mr. Jolliffe's excellent military band from Liver-
pool following, playing sprightly airs. A large and handsome
flag, on which were emblazoned the Farmers' Arms, was
next borne in the procession, and after it came the members
walking two abreast. They were all very respectably dressed,
and wore rosettes suspended from their necks by blue rib-
bons. Their appearance was highly interesting, exhibiting a
fine and gratifying specimen of that industrious, useful, and
honourable body, the " conservative" yeomanry of England.
After recreating themselves for some time in the bowling-
green of Mr. German, of the Bull inn, where the band played
several popular airs, and the members partook of some of
Mr. Wright's best ale, they returned to Walton with the
same order and regularity. Here, before proceeding to their
club-house, they walked through the village, where they were
everywhere welcomed by acclamation. In their route they
paid their respects to several gentlemen who are residents,
passing through the pleasure grounds in front of their re-
spective mansions—or paying them such passing compliment
at the gate as the time would admit of. Amongst those thus
noticed were the Rev. the Rector, M`Gregor, Esq., and
others. Having gone to Mrs. Voce's, at the extremity of
the village, northward of the church, they returned up the
lane, and halted at their club-house, Mrs. Stanley's, of the
Black Horse.

There being no room in the village sufficiently spacious to
accommodate the company, a large and commodious tent was
erected on the ground behind. The tent was covered
in with canvas, and was decorated with evergreens, with ap-
propriate inscriptions. Amonst the latter were, " May
Peace and Plenty crown the Year ;" " Prosperity to Wal-
ton ;" " Friendship and Liberty ;" " Loyalty and Peace ;"
" Our Glorious Constitution ;'' " Rule Britannia ;" and
over the end of the table, " England Expects every man to
do his duty." Here a most excellent and substantial dinner
was provided by the worthy hostess, who, though long
known as an admirable purveyor and cook, appeared on this
occasion to have surpassed her former endeavours. Every
thing was of the best, and all admirably served : the tables
plentifully supplied with what may be termed the roast and
boiled of old England, in beef, mutton, veal, and lamb—with
green peas, potatoes, and other vegetables ; besides a variety
of other dishes—pies, tarts, and puddings followed in abund-
ance ; while ever and anon flowed in plenteous stream the
" nut-brown ale."

The chair was on this occasion ably filled by W. Barker,
Esq. ' • and the—Vice-President's office was discharged with
equal efficiency by Michael Ashcroft, Esq. There were also
present Geo. Wright, Esq., Mr. Hanning, surgeon to the
society, Mr. R. Seddon, Mr. John Johnson, Mr. Edw.
Lewis, Mr. Nutt, Mr. Wm. Skirving, and others. It was
truly glorious to see how heartily the hale and vigorous sons
of the soil partook, in no small stinted slices, of the viands
and legumes set before them, and which were probably to a
great extent part and parcel of the product of their own toil
and skill as husbandmen.
At the conclusion of the dinner, and while the sun was
yet high, the society again marshalled in processional order,
and, preceded by their band, walked to the grounds of their
best friend, George Wright, Esq., where the band played,
and the whole were regaled on the lawn. Many of their
wives and children had by this time assembled at the inn,
and the scene of general enjoyment resembled the village
celebrations of May-day in the olden time.
The tent was afterwards cleared of the tables and benches,
and the stalwart yeomen and their wives and sweethearts
enjoyed the rustic dance, and the convivial song and senti-
ment, until a late hour. _ _

Too much praise cannot be bestowed on Mrs. Stanley for
the excellent dinner she provided ; and we should do great
injustice to Mr. Williams, of the same establishment, did
we not say that his anxiety in the arrangement of the out-
door accommodations, and his unwearied attention to all the
guests throughout the day, were a theme of general remark.
The objects of the Walton Farmers' Benevolent Society
are to provide for members enfeebled by old age, or during
sickness or accidental misfortune ; and also the furnishing
of funeral expenses. It was formed in 1812, so that the
present was the celebration of its twenty-seventh anniversary.
The funds are steadily advancing, the society having this year
gained £55 3s. sd. The cash in the bank is £llB4 18s.,
and in hand £27 13s. sd. The number of members on the
roll is 230.

LADY FLORA HASTINGS.-Mr. Hamilton Fitzgerald has
just published, in .the Morning Post, a copy of a letter ad-
dressed to him by the late Lady Flora Hastings, and expla-
natory of the late court scandal respecting her character.
We are sorry that we cannot find room for this interesting
letter in our present publication. We shall give it in our
next.

BAPTISM OF A CONVERTED JEW.—We understand that
a sermon will be preached, on Friday evening next, at St.
Simon's Church, Sir Thomas's Buildings, by the Rev. H. S.
Joseph, and that, during the service there will be a public
baptism of a converted Jew. The sermon will be chiefly ad-
dressed to the Rev. preacher's brethren of the House of
Israel.

RAILWAY TRAVELLING.—A correspondent complains to
us of a most annoying instance of detention on the Liverpool
and Manchester Railway, on Saturday last. He states that
he left Manchester at fifteen minutes past seven in the even-
ing, intending to sail hence by the Glasgow packet at nine.
The train consisted of 18 carriages and one engine, which
proceeded at the rate of 8 miles per hour until the inclined
plane was reached, where the passengers were detained for
one hour and twenty minutes. The Birmingham train then
came up, and, after taking them on about two miles, left
them stationary for another hour nearly. The train reached
Liverpool at a quarter to twelve. Our correspondent was
thus prevented from reaching Glasgow on Sunday night, as
he expected, and could not possibly reach his destination
until this night. This is " too bad."

An iron steam-boat, built by Messrs. Page and Grantham,
for Lord Francis Egertm, was launched yesterday from the
pierhead of the Duke's Dock. She will be supplied with two
engines of 60 horse power, now making by Messrs. Daven-
port and Grindrod, of the Caledonian Foundry. She is in-
tented to tow goods to and from Runcorn, and is called the
Alice, after Lord Francis's eldest daughter.

THE NEW AMERICAN Su'', MEMPHIS.—We have had
an opportunity, a few days since, of examining the new ship
Memphis, commanded by Captain Samuel Nichols, and be-
longing to Scott and Morrell, now nearly ready for her de-
parture on her first voyage to Liverpool. She is burthen
810 tons, is 151 feet on deck, 34 beam, and 21 depth of hold.
She was built by Smith, Damon, and Comstock, and the
ship joiner work done by J. B. Hull. This splendid vessel
has cost upwards of sixty thousand dollars. The cabin is on
deck, after the modern plan, affording light and air. Her
arrangements for passengers are on a scale of expense, style,
and beauty not surpassed ; her state-rooms are high and
light, affording abundant room ; the whole interior of the
cabin is finished with all the skill and art which can be com-
bined in the judicious arrangement of mahogany, zebra,
satin, maple, and other woods, and finished with a polish
that is hardly surpassed by the msot exquisite tortoise-shell.
The carpets, sofas, and internal arrangements of the ladies'
and gentlemen's cabins are on a scale to correspond. The
strength and beauty of the hull is a subject of general ad-
miration by nautical men, and do the greatest credit to the
builders. This fine ship will be a credit to the states, in
whatever port-she may display her flag,—New York Acker.

THEATRE RO • P. 7 C
•
Miss Vandenhoff's Juliet, and her .fu a • e 4 *luneF-'-'
back" are—taken all in all—second to those en Tree.
The stage is spoken of as it is, with regard to general effect,
and the lady-talent at present " in study" on those public
boards. It is not impertinently asserted how near or how
far behind is Miss Vandenhoff's conception of the parts, in-
asmuch as she is under the tutelage of one sufficiently com-
petent to suggest the way in which a novice's arrow should
be sped. Her acting is decidedly improved, Every time
she repeats a part, in each of its situations, there is a nearer
approach to the finish of the design which exists in her mind
as the offspring, either of her own creative thinking, or of
that lodged there, suggestively, by her father's transplanting.
On Wednesday, " Ion" was played with a success which
invited and justified its repetition on Friday. In several
scenes, we adhere to the general opinion entertained of Mr.
Anderson, who appeared to more advantage than Macready
who gave up the part to him at Covent Garden, and with
reason. The public approval confirmed the judgment of an
altered caste, in a drama which, though new to the provinces,
was old to the town. " Ion," with all its descriptive and
implied beauties, is undramatic, and. cannot, therefore, in-
trinsically retain a place as a stock piece in Any theatre. The
only impressive and dramatic situations which it possesses,
occur in the scenes with Adrastus, especially in that preced-
ing his death. We have seldom, if ever, seen finer or more
classic attitudes than those struck out by Vandenhoff : they
are classical displays of the highest excellence.,,in that de-
partment of art which may be denominated stage sculpture.
So far from altering the estimate of Mr. Anderson's acting, the
disposition is increased to confirm it. he lends him-
self to servile mimicries, not of Macready's mind but of
Macready's manner—the outer man—the shell without a
taste of the kernel—must be reiterated and adhered to.
Human nature is a riddle, as that of every " fresh-man"
is to the most tried philosopher in our Universities.
We have had experience of men whose love of appro-
bation was so misdirected, as to strain after and be
more delighted with partial applause for aping the discor-
dant sounds of the rasping of a file and the grunting of
pigs, than they were by that which they could command with
scarcely an effort—by the exercise of their vocal endowments
in British melody. Of such a nature are Mr. Anderson's
outside imitations of Macready. He perverts the powers of
a fine and manly voice to play the cat and bagpipes. to a set
of mannerisms excusable only in the original, whose excel-
lences, like those of all imitated originals, he succeeds in
missing. His readings are so mechanical, that on any dra-
matic passage with a series of clauses in its construction, his
rising and falling inflexions may be indicated with a pen, .
ere he delivers them ! However valuable in . itself any
school of " elocutionary" inflexion may be, it is worse than
valueless if failing to convey to others the feeling of the indi-
vidual speaker: the accents of the heart are more powerful
than any elocutionary movement or air to which the lan-
guage of acted passion can be set. -
Last night " Richelieu" was played to a full house. The
management have got it up most liberally. The.new dresses
and scenery were loudly applauded by the audience, as was
the acting ; and after a call in front at the fall of the curtain,
Mr. Vandenhoff announced its repetition this milling and
to-morrsw.

NORTHERN MECHANICS' INSTITUTION. Yesterday
evening, in pursuance of a placard previously posted, a
general meeting of the members and friends of this new
institution was held at the North Corporation School. The
meeting was rather numerous. The report of the provisional
committee was received and ordered to be printed. The
officers of the institution were elected, and some minor
business was transacted, after which the meeting separated.
The Ellesmere Canal Company have purchased land at
the south end of the town, for the purpose of forming a
dock to afford accommodation for their increasing trade.
The property being freehold, renders the CoMpany perfectly
free from the control of the local authorities.

MASTER BASSLE.—We were present at the last conversa-
zione of this exceedingly handsome and intelligent youth.
The precision and rapidity with which he answered questions
put to him "by the card" were surprising, We observed
that the framing of one set of replies gave him more trouble
than all the rest—namely, the hebdomadal days of the Ist of
January, in the years in the Gregorian calendar, With
due deference to Master Bassl6's gffrof memory, and
his successful adaptation of the art of " Rernembrancers,"
for purposes of display, we are prepared to show .that no
system of mnemonics can be successfully practised in
public schools, or made generally available as a feature in
any matured plan of educatica, as, respects—not one or more,
but an average of ordinarily endowed pupils. What has
heretofore been the case in regard to all published systems,
(as of Feinagle and others) may not be of Master Bassles.
But if ever his system is made public, the reader will discover
that its use to Mr: B. is one thing, and its inapplicability to
himself another.

THE NEW SHIP MEMPHIS.—The passengers by this
splendid vessel, which arrived on Tuesday last, from New
York, have presented Captain Nichols, the commander, with
a document, in which they tender their acknowledgments
for his kind and gentlemanly conduct, and give their testi-
mony to the superior qualities and splendid and agreeable
accommodations of the ship.
LIVERPOOL BOROUGH BANK.—The directors of this bank
have published their third report. The capital paid up is
£445,050, the reserved fund £48,497. The profits for the
last year are stated to be £42,978, on which a dividend of five
per cent. was declared last January, and again on July 30,
leaving a surplus of £4,242, being at the rate of ten per cent.
a-year on the whole paid up. The directors congratulate
themselves on the prosperous state of the concern, and the
retiring directors, Messrs. Rotherham and C. H. Jones, were
unanimously re-elected, and Mr. James Phillips appointed
in lieu of Mr. L. Heyworth.

At the police-office, yesterday, a middle-aged woman, with
a child in her arms, was charged with having, between seven
and eight o'clock this morning, taken a box from a steam-
boat, the Mermaid, then unloading in the Clarence Dock.
It seems she employed a carter to convey the said box, which
was about 4 cwt., to a public-house, in Chapel-streee, stating
it to be hers, containing eggs, from Ireland. Inspector
Tyrrell observed the man unload the box, and, from its ap-
parent weight, questioned the parties as to what it contained ;
and not being satisfied with the reply, he had it opened, and
found in it 52 pieces of Irish linen, one of which was produced
in court. She was remanded, that inquiry ;night be made as
to the owners of the cargo in the steamer, and as to whether
any box of eggs was on board.

Ayrshire by a guard of honour, composed of a hundred stal-
wart youth, the flower of the upper disti•iet of Atholl, clad, of

THE TOURNAMENT.—We understand that upwards of 600
of the leading nobility have accepted invitations to be pre-
sent at the chivalric fete at Eglintoun Castle. The com-
pany being so numerous, the Earl of Eglintoun has'eaused
two spacious marquees, each upwards of 250'feet long'and 50
wide, to be erected, one for the banquet, and the other for
the ball or revels. For each of these temporary saloons,
several costly ormolu chandeliers have been designed.,:iiid ma-
nufactured after the antique but admired style of Vrancis I.

Welcome those gentle quills (whose e'er they he)

The true imprisoned dust of that renown'd, can. I can state one instance which occurred in my own
neighbourhood, on, I think, the 25th of March. I got in-
formation from a man that an outrage was planned to be com-
mitted ; a man of the name of Killion, who was under agent
to Mr. D'Arcy, of the county of Fermanagh, was to be at-
tacked, and I immediately sent for the man, and put him
upon his guard, and I furnished him with arms for his pro-
tection : the man was very shortly afterwards attacked in the
morning between six and seven o'clock, by 40 or 50 armed the" '
men, and fired at in his bed, with his wife and family about P
him; he returned the fire, but the shots did not take effect in
either case, though the slugs were found in the man's bed.
