WORKING MEN'S CLUBS. Fume describing the general constitution and objects of Working Men's Clubs, we have suspected several of those established in the metropolis, and now proceed to give some account of their charac ter and practical results. Our first visit was to the Workmen's Hall, Port ked-eo&d, Notting-hill This institution is situ ated in the half formed, somewhat wild neighbour hood called, by a strange topographical license, "the Kensington Potteries." The locality is one of the extreme western outskirts of London, lying between the Notting-bill road and Kensall-green. The greater part of the ground was open fields within the memory of those who are still youug, but a thickly populated though straggling town has grown up since the formation of the Great Western Railway, and, though there are some go, d squares and crescenta not far off the streets for the most part are inhabited by bumble working class people. lu the midst of badly-lighted roads and half-formed thoroughfares, where you must look sharp after dark lest you g t engulfed in morasses of mud, stands the Hall—a plain brick building, completed, though not originally designed, for its present purpose. The house was opened on the Ist of April, 1861. Mr. Samuel Gurney advanced the neoemary funds (1,1201.) at 5 per cent. interest, and several gentlemen, both lay and clerical, who, concern themselves in the welfare of their less far innate brethren, have given the Hall very hearty and efficient support. The yearly expenses are now about 1501., though in the first year they amounted to 1831. As originally conducted, the members were expected to pay a weekly subscription of twopence, for which they obtained the advantages of admission to the coffee room, where refreshments are to be had at moderate prices ; to the reading room, with its Mock of daily and weekly papers, magazines, &c. ; to the library, wheuoe books are lent out at one peony for fourteen days, and from which 533 volumes were issued in the first year ; to the amuse ments of draughts, chess, dominoes, &c. ; to the smoking room ; and to the reading, writing, and arithmetic classes. Turkish baths were at one time *Abetted to the building, but were not much patronised, and are sow abandoned. The subscrip ties system has been found not to answer, and it has accordingly been relinquished, except in con 111M00 with the reading room. It is found that the business dune in refreshments, and the payments of various societies for the accommodation of meet ing in the rooms of the hall, bring more revenue to the managers than the plan hitherto followed. Daring the first nine months the expenditure eaceeded the income ; but we are informed that aims the alteration the prospects of the institution becoming self-supporting have considerably im proved. It is obvious, however, that, as matters now stand, the Hall is not so much • club as a club- Isone—a pleas which any society can rent for a night, or a series of nights, or a permanency—a part business, part philanthropic speculation, not as effort by working men themselves to meet a aerial want of their own in their own way. That the project may do good among the thoughtless and vicious we do not doubt, but it fails to fulfil the idea of a club, nor is it likely, we think, to do as much service as if it were formed on more easy and social principles. It is hardly social at all, in the sense of good fellowship, but rather a centre of peopegandisui—a place where the working man lade unused in a state of tutelage, which of all Chimp he abhors. The Hall, in fact, is specially de voted to the diffusion of teetotal principles, and the dissemination of religious tracts for the conversion of the infidel. This is not exactly the task which a working man's institution should set itself. Many agencies already exist for the spread of temperance doctrines and of religious knowledge. What is now wasted is something which in the first place ahall aseidy the natural desire of the labourer and the artisan for cheerful companionship, apart from debatable matters of opinion, and thew combat the peblic-house on its own ground; and which, secondly, shall offer him facilitim, such as he can now only obtain at taverns, for transacting the business of friendly and benefit societies. - To this end, an entire absence of the sectarian spirit and a studious mittration of the habits of self-government are in the highest degree necessary. The Kensington Potteries Workmen's Hall, however, goes upon another principle. It is a league of various re formatory and morally educational bodies, and ischidesi a District Visiting Society, • Tem perance Society, a Band of Hope, a Bible Case, a Young Men's Christian Association, and various societies for mutual aid and instruction. • harmonic club, singing classes, and occasional lectures are also included in the plan. The pro. feesedly religious character of the hall was made manifest to us directly we entered the reading-room a few evenings ago. Three youths were warmly bat very amicably discussing the subject of pro- phecy, with reference to Dr. Cumming s belief that the destruction of the world is totake plane in 1886. IA the wall was pasted a placard, set forth in red and black ink, after the manner of a playbill, wherein we were informed that "at the Theatre of the Universe, on the Eve of Time, will be performed Elhe Grea t Assize, or Day of Judgment," of which "the scenery, now actually preparing, will not sake surpass everything that hasyet been seen, but will infinitely exceed the utmost stretch of human eeneeption • ' and so on throughout, with a Nile= parody of theatrical language, even to the prices of ad mission to the pit and gallery. This astounding production (which is attributed to the Rev. Rowland Hill) is on sale at " the bar" of the ball for a penny each eemy, and seems to meet with customers ; though, seeking allowance for difference of intention, it appears to us little better than that exploit of a reprobate Scotch lord, about seventy years ago, who went with his drunken companions at mid niskt into a churchyard, and rehearsed the " Last Ray" amongst the tombstones. The Workmen's Nell of the Kensington Potteries may poems its ewe sphere of usefulness, and the managers take reedit to themselves for having, by their exertions among the poor of the surrounding district, do baled the attempt of two neighbouring houses of eneertainment to obtain spirit licenses. But the venialness is not such as we specially desiderata in eemnexion with working men's clubs. Much the same observations apply to the Stor miest-house Working Men's Association, also at fatting-hill—an institution opened in 1853, and smeaged by a committee of the Local Philanthropic Seekity and Ward Association. This can hardly be salted a club at all ; it is rather a place for religious trainius, combined with occasional amusement in the shape of concerts. Smoking is prohibited, end there appears to be no provision for mere re eseatiou, such as games of chance or skill. The semsber of members has fluctuated very considerably, and it is generally felt that the rules are too metrictive, and the rate of subscription too high— via' 3d. weekly, or 2s. 6d. a _quarter. Neither for this nor for the Potteries Hall can we anticipate more than a sectional influence. The Soho Club, situated in Crown-street, Soho, rllk Giles's, is conducted upon totally different prin eiuies, and makes some Approach, in • rude and bumble way, to the clubs of the more educated criers. Turning down from Oxford-street, oppo site the end of Tottenham-court-road, we soon find ~selves before a corner house, whose dusky old Wok walls are adorned with flaring posters, stuck there by various advertisers, in naiordance with a issiiion which threatens to turn half the mural surface of London into means of publicity for Oestrimil managers and puling tradesmen. A wry unpretending door gives admission into an iwkwally plain, workaday-Woking house. Every thing, indeed, is in the rough—perhaps too much so, for one of the attractions of the public-house is brigbt, cheerful, and really ornamental cha rades ; and, if the oppoeition club-house is to have a fair chance, it must not be dull and shabby. At the Soho Club the room originally de signed for a sinukiutroom is • mere brick sled, whitewashed, provided with one or two unprotected jets of gas, and roofed by a sky light, which the boys of the neighbourhood have pelted with stones and broken in several places. This eatimilding (the dimer.aions of which are but small) ie any we uodentanii, to be used as a bath room, and the skylight is to be shisliled externally with mbework upbeat the aismalta of the juvenile LEIMMIIMIii THE EXPRESS, MONDAY ZVENING, OCTOBER 19 , . ..- • d .., - - - - Bedouins.
