4 TB ROMILISti POOR. In all discussions respeoting the present emulition of the metropolitan poor the one based of guardians refusing to pe'oeide a atonal ward have had a large &hereof blame. The thirty-eight workhouses in which, according to Mr. Parnell's report, ample sleeping accommodation might be found, have not received a tithe of the attention bestowed upon the one which bad quietly ignored public opinion and the three- I thins of the Poor-law Board. Some critics censured the Poor-law Inspector for withholding the uame of the pet-scant workhouse, and several of our contem poraries complained indignantly that the hard hearted and unfeeling men composing the local board ware not held up to public reprobation. One obvious mode of discovering both the situation of the wardleas workhouse, and the whereabouts of its directors, was of course personal inquiry in the different perishes. Passing by all wherein the smug poor were known to be looked after in sane fashion, and restricting questions to those out of , the regular beat of philanthropic inquiry, the number in doubt becomes as small as the area in which they are situate is large. We have shown from time to time that in all the workhouses situate in London proper something has been done. The unfortunate site of such a one as that of Clerkenwell, with its narrow and confined yards, its cramped and crowded outbuildings, and its old-faahioued appliances, pre cludes its guardians from even thinking of the certificate of the Poor-law Board, or the reimburse ment from the common fund, of which the certifi cate is the forerunner. The anomalous situation of the workhouse of the Strand Union, with its Bt. Pancras ' parishioners on one side of it and those of St. Marylebone on the other, is, rightly or wrongly, held to a su ffi cient reason for not admit ting appLioants into its doors who are unfurnished with a ticket from Bow-street. The possible pur chase of that of St. Martin-in-the-Fields by the crown, and the consequent reluctance of the guar dians to build new wards in place of the badly ventilated cellar ones and others now in use, has rendered them as ineligible as their Clerkenwell neighbours for certificate and reimbursement ; and without repeating instances where a compromise between inclination and duty has been effected, all who have studied the subject are aware that the various metropolitan guardians have been so far roused by admonition and warning as to admit their responsibility by making some alteration and enlargement in their casual accommodation. The exception has been the one workhouse alluded to, but not named by Mr. Parnell; and as it in its turn has seen the necessity of partially conforming to the common dictates of humanity, there can be no reason for concealing its locality or for withholding I Its name. The Lewisham workhouse has foe the first time in its history agreed to furnish casual wards for wayfarers and wanderers • sock wards • are now in course of completion, and will be opened ' in about ten days from this date. Simultaneously, thee, with the public announcement that to Lewisham was due the unenviable distinction of being the one metropolitan parish wherein the claims of the houselses poor were positively and openly ignored, we have to record the send-cunver moo of its guardians, as proved by the moderate concession they are making to public opinion ; for the proceedings of these suburban parochial authorities even now fall miserably short of what is commonly supposed to be their duty. They neither conform with the instructions of the Poor-law Board, nor intend doing so when their wards are completed. Until the lad few weeks "we decline to recognise vagrancy" would seem to have been their stook answer So every appeal • and that the old spirit is not yet dead, may be inferred from the fact that all houselees persona taken in will have bare shelter sad nothing more. We have seen much of the variations in workhouse rule, but the climax of stern restriction is surely arrived at I, here, where the casual pauper is to be sent to bed I supperlees, and dismissed in the morning without I breaking his fait. On the other hand, be will be neither subjected to the bath nor called upon to perform a task of work, so that the extent of the workhouse hospitality he will taste will be, it is perhaps argued, proportionate to the amount of workhouse discipline he will experience. The ridi culous assumption of "not recognising" vagrancy, as if shutting our eyes to an evil were equivalent to rooting it out, cannot be too strongly condom/0d ; and the half-and-half measures which result in a ward for eighteen people being prepared, while food for them is denied, will render the Lewisham parish authorities unenviably notorious in all coming dis missions on the working of Mr. Villiers' Act. We • were informed during a recent visit that while vagrant& were not " recognised " they have been accommodated, half surreptitiously, as it were, in the ordinary receiving-room of the workhouse; but the books take no cognisance of this, and to the sublime vision of the Lewisham guardians, vagrants, "casuals," wayfarers, and wanderers have been as if they were not. The " Homeless Poor Book," which gives " the age, occupation, last resting place, and proposed desti nation of every " casual " housed, is of course not kept, and the only record of the paupers taken in Is in one of the ordinary books. This, without enter ing into particulars, shows that but 3 were so re lieved in the week ended 24th December ; but I in the first week in January, Bin the second, and 12 in the third. Before the date first quoted there is no notice of vagrants, and for anything contained in the books, all applications may have been rigo rs/ugly refused. We have thus a noteworthy instance of the lengths to which boards of guardians can go. We saw the other day, in the published correspondence between a metropolitan parochial officer and his official supe riors, and subsequently with the Poor-law Board, bow limited is the power of the latter ; and if we wanted further evidence it is furnished in the quiet defiance hurled at it by many another local board. Of course, if a person in urgent necessity had applied at the Lewisham workhouse door, had been refused admission in due course, andrhad expired of exposure and want, one or other of the officials might have been indicted, and punished for manslaughter. But short of such a catastrophe as this, it is di ffi cult to see how stupid, obstructive, and bar d-hearted enactments are to be flailed. "Pariah boards have neither," as Eldon said of a corporation, " souls to be saved, nor bodies to be kicked;" and a measure bringing them more within the scope and spirit of the law, even at the cost of reducing some of their much vaunted self-governing powers, would seem to be one of the crying morns sities of the day. That any body of men should be permitted for years to "decline to recognise va grants," and should even now refuse them food, is such a monstrous anomaly as to furnish in itself a substantial argument for change. The power of summurily enforcing a few simple and humane rules, and of peremptorily dosing all guardians proved to be foolish and inefficient, would save us from such scandals as the history of the Lewisham workhouse affords, and do much to allay the feel ing of soreness and dissatisfaction which is un doubtedly provoked whenever public attention is called to the administration of parochial law. Passing from the more than doubtful conduct of a particular set of guardians to the broad question, bow far are the great bulk of our London work houses placing their new casual wards at the dia posid of the classes for whom they are professedly designed, we are compelled to state that our expe rience during the last ten days has not been re assuring. We have latterly confined our inquiries to the poor people in the streets, and after making liberal allowance for exaggeration, after compar ing the statements of one person with those of another as to place and time, and after choosing such hours and weather for our researches as were least likely to bring out impos tors, we are spin driven to the conclusion that some link is wanting between the shivering wretches on the pavement and the comparatively comfortable beds in the workhouse. It is difficult to believe that any one, however averse from week, would deliberately sleep under an archway or on church steps on such nights as the last weak has given as ; and when we are told that admission has been refused at *peel- Sad workhouses, the statement carries with it may of the marks of truth. It must be mum- - 1118 I bated that when any respectably dressed intee loontor charitably determines to follow the matter tip, and walks with the man or girl he has found to again demand admission, he is only able to par tially sift truth from falsehood. When he is sue easeful, and sees his protege of the moment sheltered for the night, he by no means proves that the paro chial janitors would have been equally pliable had the moral support of outward respectability been want ing to the tramp. And this is one of the most pus and disheartening di ffi culties conne u t ed with such investigations. The inquirer may have sat with master and matron, have watched night after night, and at workhouse after work house, the reception, examination , and shel tering of vagrants, and after all have the linger ing doubt that matters may have been glossed over out of deference to the presence of a stranger. We firmly believe—and we make the assertion after ample and diverse opportunities of observation — that the masters of our London workhouses are, as a rule, intelligent, kind hearted, and humane. We have seen and heard of numberless little instances whirs they have modified formal rules to meet the exigencies of a pressing case, and whore • truly sympathetic spirit has been s hown for the pauper. But matey of the details of management are noose eerily left to subordinate officials, and it may be that where the choice is between pereonal inconve nience and • vagrant's rights, the latter suffers. For example, we have been told of admission being refused after • certain hour at night, and on two oc casions have found the bell of a workhouse casual ward so fastened on the inside as to make the most energetic pulling unpro ductive of sound within. The recent Act fixed the hours between eight at night and eight in the morning as the time when vagrants shall be admitted, and, other circumstances fitting, be paid for out of the common fund, but is mgnifloantly silent as to any hour between those named being too late or too early for opening the doors. When the Master of the Holborn Union naively admitted in the course of the Daly inquiry that he always went round the wards with the visiting committee whose duty it is to hear complaints, and that the inmates always seemed satisfied with their treatment, be appeared unconscious that his presence might inter fere with complete freedom of speech. It is the possibility of some such counteracting influence being at work when wards are inspected by amateur inquirers that inclines the ear to the stones told by outcasts. " Here are the beds and here are the books, from which you will see there have never been s'heathen Twitted number vacant in any week during the winter," is in itself an admirably re-assuring speech, if the poor people seen in the streets an hour or two later did notsupply its commentary. " There is no deception," shouts the professional wizard, but the gold watch is not broken, and the young gentleman not shot, for all that ; and despite well ventilated wards, plentiful supply of beds, lied pro mising statistics, it is to be feared that wayfarers and wanderers are not benefited to the fullest possible extent by the accommodation legally pro vided for their needs.

It appeased that John Hell, by hie will, devised all his real seats to trustees, and as to a house, No. 45. Ludpte , hill, to ply one moiety of the rents to his son, J. E. Hell, during his life, with remainder to his children, and to pa the other moiety to his daughter, Eliza Hall, for life, with remainder to her children ; and be directed that from and after any person entitled for his under his will to any estate for life should have attained the age of 21, then that all or any parts of the real estate to which they should be for the time being entitled, should and might, by consent is writing, sad subject to any loathe which might have been previously made by virtue of the will, be leased, derailed, or so let by the trustees, at reek-mat, for any term of years in possession not alined log twisty-the years. At the death of the testator hie children were infante, and the trustees ruder the will having diselaiseed, J. k and Eliza Hall, when they came of age, greeted slew of the bouts in 1836.

The parties, husband and wife, separated by mu tual consent, sod in June, 1863, a deed was executed be. twee' Mr. Swift, Mn. b thrift, and • trustee, whereby, amo other thing, the husband comeanted that the children of himself sad wife, one of whom, • girl, wee sight yews of age, and the other • toy of five, should be under the sole an sad management of his wife. Since the execution of this deed the hothead has tiled • petition in the Divorce Omit, praying for • judicial ssparatMa from hie wife on the potted of cruelty in charging him with the conduct man hood below, and for the custody of his two °hadn't. The alleged pound of separation a the part of the wife was misconduct of the grommet pomible description to his daughter oe the pert of the husband, and the making of this @barge is the alleged cruelty referred to in the ',Dhoti for divorce, which, though the wife has filed her answer, has not been proceeded with. The wife now by her next lased filed against her husband this bill, praying an injunction to restraio him from prosecuting my preceding@ to obtain the chair's, and from iaterfering with the plain tiff in the can sod protection of them. His Honour to-day gave judgment. observing that this was • suit to inform the specific perform:thee el • deed of separatiou between husband mid wife. There we a suf ficient consideration, sad it wee executed by the trustee under a power of attorney. it wee ocatented on the ground that the covenant entered into by the husband bound him not to see acid interfere with the management of his children, and it was mid that such • covenant was in Basil void, and vitiated the whole deed. There was so doubt en to the rule of law. A covenant by • father that be will sheath from mein and exercising any control over his children was bad, bemuse it was against the policy of the law, which bolds it to be de al/this that the father should *milks superinteodethe over his Widgets, sod that he mama therefore °optima away his Inherent right mad the defy imposed on him by nature. But though this (said his Ham ar) is the general, it might be said almost the universal rule , both as Tepid' law and morals, yet there occasionally arise cases in which the con trol of the fa th er would be injurious to the child, tied then equity would Interpose to prevent such control, sad wield sometimes remove the child, not is doing so se acting °Po ttery to the policy of the law, but as holding that the pm t.,,ar ore formed en exegete:a to the general rule, and was the where the gamest principle did not apply. The policy ci the law was rested us what promoted the benefit of the child, sod is this ors that policy wild be beet consulted by taking the child from the father and placing her under the care of the mother. deed, the advantage sod beeefit ci the child am the foundation of both the role sad the exception. Such • covenant as this wee generally speaking bad, lase moch as both by nature sod the valley of the law the raper istetheses of the father was required ; but if a came arose in which this was manifestly the reveres, mad when it was plain that it would be deetrootive to the life mid morals ci the child that such superintendence should exist, the law invalidating such a covenant in all other cue would emo tion it in this. The murk hided, required a strong one. to act upon this principle, and the question was whether that case existed here. His Honour this very minutely commented upon the evidence, that for the plain tiff being directed to prove the MOO miscon duct imputed to the defendant towards his child, mid th at for the defendant, which was composed mainly of the statements of labourers, setting up a cam of great immorality on the pert of the platutiff, and said be was of opinion that the cam for the pliintiff was proved, sad further he expremed his approval of the cireumetathe that the child hem& bad not been allowed to make an affi davit is the neater. His Honour went on to say if is this mute of thing any court could be found which would deliver op thin unfortattate child to the care of this defen dant he was happy to say it would not be by him, and that the future calamities which might result from the child being delivered to the father would sot rest ca his reersin abilit.

Mr. Cole moved to make the rale absolute. Mr. Collies showed muss against the rule, and read lengthened extracts from various affidavits in contradiction of the statemeete contained in the affidavits upon which the rule was granted. The eourt considered the matter somewhat complicated. as it was a serious thing to strike as attorney off the T r olls, the pots in dispute had bettor be referred to the Master. Referred accordingly. THE HOWIE V. iTIRETT. The defeedant (the plaiatiff le error) w tried in July bat and inevieted at the Outwit Cringed Court for aa indecent assault, and it was arranged at the trial that the defendant should dealer to the third count in the iodiet meet, in order to obtain the decision of the Court of Error as to its validity. A question however arose whether the 18th ud 17th Viet. applied to the ease, so that thh wart could easuaine the record or give pulgsoimat for wash of joinder. Mr. Taylor moved that jodgrowst might be seitnrod for the clehiadanr, as the pound of son-joioder is error. Mr. Malcolm (muter of the Crown-ollor) pointed out to the court that sentence bad sot bees pared by the Central Criminal amt. The Lord Chief Judas said that Wog so, the record was iooomplete, and the court could sot entertain the applioa tioo, but they ultimately granted the learned counsel a rase for a writ of rwooedendo. THE ion= P. Howastri. Mr. Orridge moved for a rule ma behalf of the defendant (who is the plaintiff in error) for entering up jedgineut on the grimed that there had been no joinder in error. Notice of the intended application had bean raven to the odisitar for the proseautioo, sad also to the Attorray•Gewirel. The defendant wee tried and convicted et the Central Criminal Court on the prosecution of Minnie Wilson, and sentenced to two yearn' imprieonment with bard labour.

He was found guilty of the first charge, and acquitted on the other. Error was brought an tbe ground that there was no false pretreat, ha, as set forth in the iedicancat.

The rule ought to be served upon the °Moor of the court, and also on the rail and nominal prosecutor. Mr. Orridge said it would be difficult to servo it on the real prosecutor. She wee a prostitute in the Hayrnerinst, and passed under an assumed same. It would therefore be exceedingly diMoult to fad her.

If, however, the court was satisfied every attempt bad been made to do so, but without effect, they might allow service on the officer to be sufficient.
