EDUCATION •OF THE LOWER ORDERS OF THE METROPOLIS. [We are in possession of the First Report of the Evidence taken before the Committee on the Edecation of tile ',owes Orders of the Metropolis. As the evidence is vet y important, but also very voluminous, we shall give an abstract of the must important parts of it. The considerations to which ss e would direct the public attention as to this subject are-1. Whether the number of uneducated poor in the metropolis is not so gr.at at to call for Legislative interference?-2. Whether the funds of the different chatitabe associations might, if economically and joliciously rppllvd, be sufficient to meet either wholly or in part, the present &Weary in the means of education ? The public will alto look with interest as the account of the progress made by various so eel es, towards the diffusion of knowledge, at wellas to the regu lations and extent of incot porated chari ties which have been raised on the bounty of pious Suvereigns, or benevolent individuals.] • NIP • ABSTRACT OF THE EVIDENCE. Mr. T. A. FINN AN, Master of the St. Gilts's Irish Free School, in George-street, rated, that from survey he had ascertained that there were upwards of 6000 poor Irish in St. Giles's district, including the parts of Bloomsbury connected with it, exclusive of children. They have 4 general disposition to have their children educated, and even many of the parents attend to be taught—about 100 attend lour nights in the week; some of them have been taught to read since January who exceeded 47 years of age. To these pa rents nearly 3000 children belong, who are destitute of any intorma Linn ; int espect ot morals they are most de praved, generally associating with pickpockets.— The parents themselves are very dissolute. On Sun days particularly they take their children with them to the public-houses.: while they have a farthing left they vend it in those public-houses, and the children are I"ft to the parish for btod for the rest of the week. The traerals of the English in the same district are much better. In this district, betides the George-street school, there is another school (the St. Patrick's) for Irish Catholics, and the Parochial Schools. In the school of which he has charge, 771 have been received since 1813. Children of the Irish, of all religions, are ad mitted. It was founded by the Rev. J. Ivissey, with the assistance of Mr. FiNseome, in 1813. The income is about £20() arising from voluntary subscriptions. The parents pay nothing, having been found unable, especially in winter, to pay even one penny per week. There is room in the' school for 300, but only 200 at tend ; the reason is, that the Roman Catholic clergy., men object to the children being allowed-to read the Bible. At the commencement of the school, one of the priests demanded permission to teach the Catholic Catechism in the school. This being objected to, the , following he preached against the schools.— ' ff,e elect was., the windows of the school-house were. broken, Mr. FINNEGAN and his wife prised with mud, and a few days after his child was,so beaten as to be come and renlain a cripple. The school is designated 66 the Protestant Bible Scho as a term of reproach. atsknaLetiv preached this sermon about two years ;ago. At the time the number of children in the school decreasA from 230 to 38 for one week, hut the week I following the parents, satisfied with the tilude of ih strnetiot:, sent their children again. At the Catholic `Scheol about 200 are educated. That establishment 'is hostile to the Qeorge•street School. There is a National Free School, but the Irish have an objection to send their chil.lreti to schools avowedly Protestant. The witness had surveyrd Saffron-hill, where there were 3120 Irish adults, and about 5000 children of all ages. In St. Giles's education had already, he concei ved, had an influence on the morals of the lower orders. Mr. J. KELLY. Secretary and 'Trustee of St. Pa. trick's School since its commencement in 1803, stated that it was supported by voluntary contributions for the instruction of poor Catholic child: en in St. Giles's and-its vicinity. .The number of children now in the school was 400, or above, which was greater than the usual number. The present increase was partly ow. ing to the management sir the Fentalk School by a Lady, who had undertakenit without any reward.— The Girls' School was -lull, but • the Boys' School would admit 100 more than it had hitherto had. There was another Catholic School in Wild-street. The expense of Vsp St; Patrick's SchoOl was £9OO, for which 4.00 bßyi and girls were educated, and about six or seven female orphans e ntirely provided tqr. The expense of the orphans was, on an average, £2O each, leaving £760 for educating the 400 Oil., dren. The Schoolmasset bad £6O, which was the only salary. The system of teaching 'is a modification of Lam:as:Ws plan:. The . 001 We religien is taught.l The Society has £3500 in the pet' cents. Mr. T. LEARY was one of the Committee of the West: London Association : he undertook to survey what was called the Covent Garden division in 1813. He visited 215 houses in the courts between Cathe sine-street and Bedford-street, Strand. In those houses 97 boys and 75 girls were educated, or had , the means of education ; 145 boys and 112 girls were' uneducated, and without meant; of education. Some of the people were in great milsery, but all persons expressed their willingness to assist according to their ability in the plan of education, and to con tribute something. • The object of the Association:was to build-Schools west ef the City. To effect this, the whole of the west of London was divided into 11 divisiGns, and subdi vided into districts, in which persons were to have' visited from house to house, to ascertain the number of children educated and uneducated, and to solicit subscriptions; The object of the &ssociation mains unesecuted i but itot given up. The difficulty PRICE SZVEN-PESICR. found was to get peisOns to visit the districts. Those who undertook it got cool upon it. The Association has one school in Horsefertrroad, in which they are teaching. The number of boys on the books is aboot oor 400. Witness did not think more than 150 regularly attended ; they were from Tothill-street and that neighbourhood, Mr. Jameson was the master. Mr. F. BABLen, who had visited the left hand side of Long•acre, along Drury-lane, stated that he found there 417 children educated, 497 unedneated. I'!ie greater part of those of the lower orders were unedu ca.3d, but the parents wereextrem-ly anxious to have the means of procuring their children edocation.— Where there were tar e or four in a family one or two could read a little, others 'not at all. In the Irish families there were more uneducated than in those ot the English and Scotch ; but they were generally as anxious to have their children educated as the others. He saw a great deal of ilth and misery. Mr. F. A.EARLE, Clerk to the Vestry Clerk of the Parish of St. Giles, gave an account of the Charity Schools in the united parish of St. Giles and St. George, Bloomsbury, besides Mr. Finnegan's and the St. Patrick's Schio There is one in Eagle•street on the Lancasterian plan, in which tttere are 100 boys: 14d. per month, by the parents, the remainder by voluntary contributions: one in Sto:e•stteet, Bedtord• square, that purports to have 30 girls, at present there are 22. Another in the same street, in which there are 70 children, on Bell's system: each child pays 2d. . . . . . . _ a week. In Wild -street, there is a Scho , ll in which 109 boys arc educated, and a free school in which there are 40 boys, and 45 girls, maintained pinci. pally by subscription from Queen-street Chapel. One in West street; for SOO boys and 100 girls, where 9.1. A-month is paid by each child : another in Gate , street, Lincoln's Inn-fieids, in which there are abort ',(10 boys and girls. These were all the foundations l of wh.cb witness was aware of, for the purpose of education, except the walk-house school, which con tained 63 children, of persons admitted to the.work isnd a school budding under the will of a Mr. Shelton, in which 50 children are to be edncated, 3.5 of St. Giles, 10 of St. Martin, and five hf Covent garden parishes. A great many children of the levier orders in the parish of St. Giles were destitute of the meansof education, and the t.!te of morals extremely bad, which he conceived education world much int. prove. On Sundays large parties of the children went to the fields to gamble in a riotous manner, though the Beadles were constantly endeavouring to put a stop to such irregularities. Hz had heat d that a system was laid down by Oa? part,iti to encourage them to go out thieving. He cnticeietd a want of cloathir.g prevented nipny of the children as well from attending schools as divine worship. Many mil* rents alit; would not send their children to school bt. cause they derived support from their begging. Mr. E. NORRIS stated, that there was another school in St. Giles's, in addition to that mentioned by Mr. Earle, called the Bedford, in Tottenham Court-road. He was in the habit of attending a Catholic chapel, to which a school was attached, in .which there *was rtig,74 , .: mote e hildren then'those .who atteodg. ThiXhe attributed partly tb begtect, and ph: tl; to-the w.‘j,t,iii ciosthing. ... •A;•' ' Mr. J. HoNitillAn, a , :ilk m mulactlirer of Spital fields, said, that in that quarter in a population of 17 or 18,000, there were. he should suppose, near '2,000 children of the poo,est classes uneducated ; he did not pretend to accuracy. The schools in that district were—a parish school, containing 110 children—a parish Sunday scheol of 150—a dissenting school of 100 children—a Methodist Sunday school, in Raven row, of 500 children (he believed on the Lancasterian plan) —a Sunday school, in llope-street, ofabont 9.90. A Sunday school belonging to Mr. Evans' 'Chapel, of 800, partly on the Lancasterian plan. A Mrs. Buxton's school o: 100 children, paying 2d. a-week: And an adult Sunday school of 160. These schools are supported by subscription, except that of Mrs. Buxton, which is supported by herself ; and the pa rochial schools, which, besides subscriptions, have some money funded. He thought there was a great want of education in the district, and in times of dis tress, the want of cloathing was a serious objection to the parents sending their children to school. The present, he observed, was a time of great distress, and within ten minutes walk of his house, there were 20,000 hands' out of employ-7000 looms being un employed, each of which generally employed three persons. This witness also spoke to the anxiety of the lower orders in that quarter to have their chil dren educated, and stated, that having surveyed the poor of the district, for the purposes of the Bible So cicey, he had found near 1000 adults unable to read, besides children ; Many of them much regretted their ignorance. Of the schools he had mentioned, six had been established within 12 years. Many of the scheola could-admt more bays than are educated at them.— The poor titts,of the district were ss. per pound, in the rack-reift, and to be raised another shilling. Mr. W. Siat.e agreed in general with the evidence of Mr. Honeyman ; but he thought the number of uneducated poor nearer 1500, which was aLeut half the children of the rot. population. Four fifths of those Who were educated, were educated 'la Sunday schools only ; but some of the schools so called tntt for an hour or two one evening in the week. These institutions had much improved the morals of the poor, by inducing them toluend places of worship oh Sundays. Mr. E. MEYIUCK, Treasurer of the Parochial School of Christ Church, Spitalfields, stated, that the num ber of children educated and annually clothed was 110. It was supported by donations, annual sub scriptions, charity sermons, and interest of money in the funds. The annual expense was 11458.105. -He conceived there was no want of the means of educa tion in the parish;' f the parents would send their children. This might arise from extreme Ipoverty ; but he conceived the parents hid little inclination to exert themselves to provide clothes. The Rev. W. GURNEY/ Rectos of St. Clement
