Ste--Tlie population of this piece is far greater than all the distressed parishes of Staffordshire, foe which so strong an interest has been justly excited, and somewhat exceeds that of any of the large towns in Great Britain. The proportion of poor is much larger than is contained within the same population in any part of the kingdom. It is well known that the silk trade of the country has its chief seat in this quarter, and usually finds employment and support for the majority of these poor persons. The number of looms in this trade has been ascertained to be about 10,000 ; anti each of these, when in work, will furnish employment for three persons in the various bunches of elying, warp ing, winding, quilling. &c. Ot these 10,000 looms, however, more thin half have been totally unethployed for several mouths, and the nntherous families depen dent upon them deprived of all their supplies. When the effect of such a calamity is duly consi dered, I shall be believed when I assure you, that there has been no description, either of general & individual misery, in all the affecting deteils Wan Staffordshire, which might not find its complete counterpart in Spitalfields. I have personally visited some hundreds of these unfortunate people, and can adduce proof of this deplorable fact, should there be any one found to doubt it. Many have literally parted with eve: y thing that could produce a shil ling; their rooms are stripped of their little furniture and bedding, and their bodies left almost without any kind of covering. The small allowance, which the parishes can afford is, at length, all that numbers of them have to subsist upon, and this is rarely half sufficient to buy them bread. When my countrymen seea fellow-creature Almost perishing fur want, they do nut, I know, stop to in quire whether he be a worthy object of .relief. I might otherwise state, in behalf of the Spitalfields pow, that they suffer patiently and in . silence.. His Majesty has not a more peaceable and industrious body of subjects within his dominions. . After so describing' the sufferings and virtues of the Spitalfields poor, it will, I am sure, be a matter of astonishment and sorrow to your Readers, as it has been to myself, to learn that not one shilling of the public bounty has yet tOund its way into the dis tressed families of that district. It is but justice to state, that this neglect does not appear to rest with the Committee of the general Association, since a small sum has been voted by them and sent to that quarter, but with the parties to whom this money has been entrusted. Oh, could these Gentlemen have seen what I have seen, neither conscience nor hu manity would have suffered them to sleep in their beds with this money one day in possession, till the most prompt and decisive measures had been taken for its distribution. The comparative inefficacy of pecuniary relief to meet such deep and extended distress, and the apathy which, in some instances at least, attends its applica tion, make me turn with the more anxious.hope and desire to the encouragement of our manufactures. This point you have repeatedly urged, and I am glad to perceive that the Committee of the Association have likewise noticed it. With regard to the imme. diate subject of my letter--were every Lady to when it would be_ no burden to add one silk dress to her wardrobe, and purchase a few extra yards of riband. it would probably lead to the employment, of some thousands of poor weavers during the ensuing winter, and would be by far the best and most effectual made of relieving their destitute families. It may, perhaps, be proper to add, that I am myself in' no way eel fleeted with the trade of Spitalfields, and that the interest I feel for that neighbourhood arises solely from the opportunity I have had of witnessing its present distress in the course of some evening %Vs to afford a little relief. Though I have not distinctly mentidised them, it will not be forgotten that there arb in Spilldfields multitudes belonging to other trades, withAt any employment, besides a very considerable number who have fps that half work. lids day was published. price Ss. tid. bound, A New Edition, with Additions and Corrections, A KEY to WALKINGAME's TUTOR's AS. sisTANT; containing Solutions to the Questions, with Reference as they stand in the last Edition of that Work.
