Ehich II coGtains and which surround if
monuments Of antiquity Of the classic age Of

ancient city Of EngizBd-it IS not because 1t
vas the birthplace Of Constantine, and al
that tune the centre of the Northern portion
OF the Roman empIre-it Is not because il

Of such a meeting as l nov see gathered before

most sacred of purposes-the elevation of the
human rnind-the development of the human
character oy the progress Of sound knowledge
tSneeFSJ An objection has been taken to our
proceedings N Liverpool, and it has been taken
% persons, including some on the continent, Of
| ths highest rank of ALL mean some upon the
throne-thzt We did not sufficiently attend 10
the wrongs and hsrdships Of women, in that
great congress at Liverpool, and Of the two
/ ofanches 70 which our attention has been direc-
Iea ny those who chide for the omission
OF the tao branches TO which they particularly
point one is sOmewhat cultivated in this coun-
~, and one grIeye to say, is not attended to
at all The one that has been cultivated Is the
establishment Of what the French call Sisters of
marty among uS-pe=sons who, Ia that country
being Catholic country, are nuns and are
bound by VOWS which are disliked in this coun-
y; bat IN Protestant countries, where there are
no VOWS al all, the same institution has taken
place, ard with the same most happy-i will
add the most blessed result CAppIaase) TheT
are great consolation IN the prisons as well as
IN the nos pItais-they are the persons y no make
up and distribute all the rnediciae-they are as
l can answer from rny own knowledge practical
y IN the matter, as well acquainted with the
chemical preparations as the professional men
themselves, and they degote their time, neglect
ing rest. and utterly regardless of rewasd-for
FeEard they have none, and cannot have By the
ana by day, IS thus devoted to the pious per
torrnance of these most pious works CAppIause)
Will say that this has not been altogether ne
elected IN this country, though, uuhappiIy, our
attention at the congress at Liverpool vas not
specially directed to il; but it has been well dis
cusssd !" a most able tract by Mrs jameson,
which she has printed and circulated very lately
Another objection has been taken with refer
ence to subject which. l am sorry TO say, has
received no attention whatever in this country
though abroad it has produced the happiest
effects. Nothing is so lamentable as the fortune
OF unhappy ladies-geGtlewomen even Of con-
siderable station-upon the death of parent.
they by the accidents of life not having been
married, or upon the death OF a husband, whence
they come into widoYhood without ample pro-
| vision; nothing is SO wretched as those high
authorities say, and they say Justly as the lot of
unhappy gentlewomen Of that description
| We'll, then, they have established chapters
abroad sometimes IN Roman Catholic countries
but just as often in Protestant countries; and
some times upon royal foundation, sometimes
| by the gift of charitably.disposed humber in
diElduals sometimes by subscriptions judiciousIy
levied, and sometimes by kind of insurance
during the life of the parent, or during the life
| OF the husband, those ladies are provided for
at his decease. a presentation is secured, and
an entry into the establishment is provided
The happiest results have come from these
admirable establishments, and we, at our
Congress, have from these high quarters, been
/ child for not having turned our attention thith-
erward. Ny answer has been, that no sooner
was it suggested than made ii my duty to at
tend to 1t. l have acted lately in my sovereign
capacity, as President, but my noble friendI

cessor, OF, at all events as kind Of regent. /
wished to abdicate, and therefore speak still
| as President of that institution (Appiause.)
The Chapter is receiving these communications
| rom abroad, and deem it INV duty to lose no
time in bringing the subject before nv brethren.
and hope very soon something Ike plan viii
be drawn up Knowing the great difficulty that
arises in various quarters, and among others from
the nature of our admirable countrywomen
who In some respects are no better natured than
any other mountaineering there is kind of
self-wil about those who are IN those establish
ments, as we of our sex have occasion TO know
I-qaughter) don't, always find when we ex-
pertinent on small scale the managers have
not found railways perfectly easy TO make them
live entirely well together Qanghter) Those
difficulties we don't disguise, but we endeavor
to meet them in the front and with the blessing
Of Heaven on cur endeayor, we seek to give this
great benefit and boon to cur countrymen.-
