Sir JT Jackson , bart . moved thanks to Abe Committee : which were secdnded by the Rev * Mr . Cox , in a speech pf piuch eloquence .
M Mr . JVlartep , in moving thanks to the Subscribers to the invested Fund , spoke of the necessity of supplies , without which , the cause of education c ^ f the poor coul d not proceed . The j £ l 0 , 000 were to be r . "_ sed in two
years , and if not completed in the present year , the money was to be returned to the subscribers . The fund was tp pay a debt , and the surplus of ,, it to build a suitable central school for
the metropolis . The commencement of the subscription for investment and accumulation , till it reached ^ 10 , 000 , was , by various zealous friends , each according to his ability , undertaken to raise in their different connexions ,
sorhe , £ 100 , and others smalle ? amounts : but still these sums were inconvenient for others wljo moved in narrow circles * y and therefore he took the liberty to recommend , that those of either se * who felt the importance of this cause , and who could raise but
£ 5 among their friends , would be volunteers in . aid of this Society . Many of these small additions would form an aggregate of consequence to the Society , and go far toward
completing the sum originally prc&posed . He then urged the completion of this Undertaking on the ground of its utility . * It was Christian , education which was afforded . The minds of children
were early imbued with lessons from the BifeTe , inculcating the feaf 6 f God , leadfng away froiu Vice , and drawing to virtue .- —He had to inform the meeting tftat a Mr . Owen , of Scotland—that land erf bright examp le of the benefits of education—ha'd
