CHURCH OF ENGLAND YOUNG MEN'S

INSTITUTION,

The first anniversary meeting of this rising association
frs.
was held last evening at. the Charitable institution, 013
street. As the institution has gained a degree of si!esied
lity and prosperity quite unforeseen and hardly the
in so short a space in the case of any
meeting was looked forward to with great confidenee_ssi
its friends as one of considerable importance, and sqr
tad
popular clergymen were expected to attend and add Mir.,

members were doomed to some degree of disappoint ding
as many of the clerical patrons were prevented often
by their official arrangements. One rev. gentleinairi.o,

Mr. Pollock, who had a service in hischurch at doll et

Mr. BRAKELL moved, and the Rev. H. M. Mosse sad

conded a resolution, appointing Mr. Wright, one of

vice-presidents, to the chair for the evening. The secrd
tary, the Key. H. M. Mosse, read an apologetic let 2
from the Rev. W. Pollock. The secretary then

After referring"to-the circumstances which called Oleos
stitution into existence, and dwelling upon the diffieu
which attended its early career, the report set forth at
promising position' attained by the institution, which
present numbers seventeen life-members, and 330 Ben d
subscribers, including thirty of the local clergy. AlO
of laws had been prepared for the government of
es;
institution. The library contained seven hundred velum
some had been presented'by the Christian Tract Socie,„"„0(
and Mr.W. Brown, M.P., had presented a complete se:),o
Parliamentary papers. Much stress was laid: on iLa
interest appertaining to the course of lectures which brie,'"
been delivered during the year, and'the success as
attended their delivery. A supplementary course lot
announced. A French class has been formed ;—one d,
mutual mental improvement;—and a Sunday and Rage° 0
school teachers' class. From the treasurer's reoort:d
appeared that the balance in his hands on there! .$ fi
April, was £74. IBs. Id., which, with £5: 10s. sd.
to the institution, makes a suet of £80: and a few shim"
in favour of the funds of the institution.
The Rev. R. W. WOLSELY proposed the first resela.
tion, " That the report be adopted, printed, and cire,,",.;
lated." The rev. gentleman expressed the great plee3ua
he felt in moving the resolution. He spoke in high tern',
of the objects of the society, and dwelt on the particule.ci
details of the working of the institution. He eulogi.s
the lectures, and approved of the objects of the mental Inv
provement class. In the course of his address, the regi,
gentleman spoke in warm terms of the Church of En-08.nha
which he liked, because she placed the' open 'Bible in
_,,"a
hands of her members, and enunciated nothing as er''ha
that she did not present to her members to judge of bl_,t'
exercise of their own judgment. The rev'. gentleman' 61T;
eluded his remarks by appealing to the members of tit
institution : he implored them not to dissipate their
minds. He believed that institution afforded full sour-
for the exercise of the mental powers of its members, ht
le
Mr. MARSDEN seconded the resolution. He tho'',
such institxtions furnished a strong resistance teethe as'
saults of the Church of Rome, and the insidious atm, eli,.
of the Tractarians. He conjured them to unite, and I'7;
minded them of the old fable of the bundle of sticks. 14
spoke in the highest terms of the secretary, the Rev. t 5,
M. Mosse, but for whose untiring and unremitting ee°',,n
at the commencement of their career, they would not the,
have been assembled to celebrate an anniversary of t'
opening of the institution.
'
Mr. GEORGE JONES moved the second resolution,w-hlek
had reference to a matter of detail, in doing this be ref
(erred, with much feeling, to the sudden death of one
01
their members—Mr. Alfred Hadrill, who addressed the
in that room on the occasion of their last assemble'
together.

Mr. SCOTT seconded the resolution.
An amendment was proposed by Mr. Brakell, to thife,
the effect that the yearly subscription be 103. ;,the
yearly subscription 65., and the quarterly 3s. 6d.-
amendment was carried.
Mr. BRAKELL proposed the third resolution, that tbrit
honorary secretary, the treasurer, and the five mein
of committee, whose term of office had espiredi be re-
elected. Mr. ItOULSTON seconded the resolution. be

Mr. MALLETT proposed a vote of thanks to the c
man.

The Rev. T. MOORE seconded the resolution.

Mr. G. JoNas-thought that the eminent services --

Mr. MIRAMS concurred in the feeling, and includedod
his observations the Rev. D. T. Barry, whom he 01_,° ip
should be placed on the list of honorary life member''

The Rev. R. WOLSELET added a tribute to the toei.da
of the rev. gentlemen, both of whom had sat bY,his s;3l,
in college, andd he doubted not they would keep hiol,o°
