SAVINGS BANK
A Meeting will be held to-morrow, at Mr. TRELAND's , for the purpose of
establishing a Savings' Bank in this Town for the benefit of the Poor. In
addition to he Tradesmans' Fund, this is a very great desideratum, and there
can be no doubt of its permanency and good effects, as we find that his
Grace the Archbishop of Tuam, has promised his sanction of it, and will take
the chair on this occasion.-- Every charitable establishment taken in hands
by his Grace has prospered; and his seal for the interests of the Poor of
Galway entitles him to their respect and regards.

MEMORIAL OF MR CLAYTON
This monument will be perfectly finished at the end of August. It is in the
hands of Mr. SMITH, an eminent Artist, in Montgomery-street, Dublin, and
every exertion is making to expedite the work and render it a piece of
sculpture worthy of the object for which it is intended.

THE THEATRE
It will be perceived that Mr. SEYMOUR intends opening our Theatre on
Wednesday evening. We congratulate the public on this addition to their
rational entertainments, and we have no doubt that the Company which will
appear on our boards will insure Mr. S. a considerable portion of public
support.
At the Commencements lately held in the University, Richard STEPHENS, Esq.
of this town, Graduated in medicine, having previously undergone an
examination, and performed the necessary exercises before the Professors.

EDUCATION OF THE POOR
At a Meeting of the Inhabitants of Galway, held this day, at the Parish
Chapel of St. Nicholas, the following Resolutions were unanimously agreed
to:
Colonel FFRENCH in the Chair.
Proposed by Richard MARTYN, Esq and seconded by Patrick M. BURKE, Esq.
Resolved- That with a view to obviate the effects of ignorance and to
encourage the diffusion of knowledge amongst our poorer order, it is
expedient that a School should be established at the Lombard Barracks, at
which gratuitous instruction shall be afforded daily.
Resolved- That the system of Education shall be conducted upon principles
the most purely liberal, and that the poorer classes shall be allowed to
partake of its benefits without any distinction, save that of poverty, and
without regard to Sect or Persuasion.
Resolved- That in order to give effect to this fundamental principle, the
admission of the poorer orders, without reference to religious opinions- the
School shall open at eight o'clock and close at three every day- and that
religious instruction shall be carefully excluded during School hours.
Resolved- That a Committee be now appointed in conjunction with the Warden
and Clergy, to enforce a rigid adherence to these principles, and to form
Rules for the Government of the School, in accordance with them, and that
the following Gentlemen do compose the Committee.
Here follow the names of the Committee, which consists of the Earl of
Clanricarde, the Town and County Members, the Mayor, Recorder, and principal
Protestant and Catholic Gentlemen, residing in, or connected with Galway.
Resolved.- That these Resolutions be published in the Connaught Journal and
Galway Advertiser.
Anthony FFRENCH
Colonel FFRENCH having left the Chair, and P.M. BURKE, Esq., having been
