;NTATION TO MR. STUBBS.—On Tuesday last, a

leader and originator of the Royal Harmonic Band, at his
own house—the Crane Hotel, St. Vincent-street,—for the
purpose of presenting him with a gold snuff-box, a ring, &c,
in token of the estimation in which he was held as a man and a
'sician, by a number of his friends, who had handsomely

happened that an occasion of the present kind was considered
the happiest moment of a man's life. With him, however,
the case was otherwise, because his feelings were so much
overpowered by their kindness that he was prevented from
expressing what he desired. When he considered the many
years he had spent in Liverpool, every one of which had been
attended with pleasure and delight inhis profession, he felt that
he had in some degree discharged his duty as a musician when

nor to his own, it was by far more embarrassing
to himself. He believed that the origin of the presentat;on

ged in instructing the orphans in the Blue-coat

bat for having disrharged his duty in that respect
he looked for no reward. (Cheers.) The people of Liver-
pool had been kind enough to say that the orphans to whom
he referred played in excellent style, and if, in so saying, they
spoke the truth, it was a sufficient reward for him to have
the gratification to think that he had befriended the father-
less children in their distress. (Loud cheers.) He was
alway happy, so far as his circumstances in life permitted
him, to render the best services in his power to his fellow-
men, and whenever he looked at the present token of their
regard it should always stimulate him to act the friend to
every man who happened to stand in need of his friendship.
A number of loyal and sentimental. toasts were afterwards
drank and responded to in adequate terms. "The Press"
was drank with great enthusiasm, which was replied to by a
gentleman from the STANDARD Office. The evening was
passed in a most agreeable manner, and such was the har-
mony throughout, and the loyalty and good feeling displayed,
that the language of the greatest bard that England ever pro-
duced was fully verified, when be exclaimed—
" The man who bath no music in his soul,
Is fit for treason's stratagems and spoils ;
The motions of his spirit are dull as night,
And his affections dark as Erebus."
THE VISITATIOD

ROUTE. —The Rev. and Worshipful
Henry Raikes, chancellor of the diocese, will hold his courts
of visitation, for the purpose of admitting church and chapel
wardens and sidesmen,
.and for the probate of wills, and
granting letters of administration of intestates' effects, at
the times and places undermentioned. It will be seen that
there will,he two courts at Manchester, one for the borough,
and the other for the deanery. This is owing, we presume,
to the great amount of business to be transacted, and to the
inconvenience arising from the crowded state of the church
