. ar~ ~r SOCIETY FORME NTH XD ICIT Y. SUPPRESSION of Yesterday a General Meeting was 'held at the Crown and Anchor, for the purpose of hearing the Report of the Society's Committee. At one o'clkk the Chair was taken by Mr. TUILGES Bovines, who stated, that the honour of being Chairman'at sueb a Meeting was what he least of ell expected, as be had come there merely to ob tain information. The Report of the Committee was then read. It enumerated several Sub? Committees and Deputations into which the Committee had divided themselves, bud stated that they h ad invited the Clergy and Pa , Officers • engaged in the emotion of the Poor Laws throughout the Metropolis, to a conference, the result of which had been most satisfactory, and calculated to ensure the necessary co-operation ; that in the course of their investigation, the Committee bad bad their attention attracted by an Act of Parliament passed in the year 1662, which appeared to have been called far under circumstances peculiarly similar to the present, and from which they thought proper to submit an extract of the preamble; that the provisions of that Act were for constituting cor porations or workhouses in London and Westmin ster, and parishes and districts throughout the king. i dom, with large powers for the apprehension of va. grants, &c. employing them in workhouses to be built, and for levying rates for the ezpences of build. ° big and management.; that that Act bad never been acted upon, except in London ; but that they thought proper to notice it, as it might hereafter become use ful ; that they had benefited largely from the result of Mr. M. Martin's experience, who had deeply in. vestigated the subject ; that they had classed the points on which they expected themselves likely to meet with' general concurrence, under several heads, the principal of which were— Thai there should be a central superintending office for examination, with Local Committees for subse quent investigation. That they should have accurate accounts of existing charitable institutions, and immediate communication *with parish officers. That tickets should be issued for distribution to street beggars, containing a reference to the office where each case would Ile considered. That such sturdy beggars as would not beesamined, hat cautioned begging, should be dealt •ith according to law. The Report earnestly recommended the formation of Local Committees, in the districts into which they had divided the Metropolis and its environs. Dr. It ‘NDOLTH said, he had been connected with societies of a similar description in Bath and Bristol, and he had no doubt that the difficulties which pre sented themselves to the Committee would be all finally surmounted though of this he had but faint hopes, if Local Committees _were not established for the assistance of the great Central Committee. The Rev. Gentleman then read a passage from a small work, which stated how unlikely it was that Insti. I utioes for prevention would ever become so popular as those for relief, because the latter were so many apps ate to the feeling, and the former only to the u nder%tansling. The passage also deplored, in feel ing terms, the effects of poverty, and strongly en forced the necessity of preventing it as much as pos sible. The giving of tickets would effectually remedy much of the evil complained of; and, by their use, impostors would soon quit their posts when they saw they were no longer profitable ; indeed, the refusal of a beggar to take a ticket w o u ld be a strong proof that . his case would not bear investigation. As long' as mistaken charity continued to relieve street beg. gars eithout examitiaticti, the penalties of the law would not deter impostors from forging a tale of charity. The Reverend Gentleman concluded by wishing that all might concur with the object of the - I n stitution, and he was sure the most happy effects would be produced. lie then moved that the Report should be approved. Mr. Comarmourt rose to second the motion. lie SRN very great difficulty in coming to a successful re sult on the objects of the Institution ; but if all join. rd hand in hand, it was practicable, however diffi cult. Legislative regulations might be necessary, end he trusted that they might be satisfactorily pro cured when required. The motion was then carried unanimously. It. Twtstee, Esq. rose to propose the Thanks of the Meeting to the Doke of N or thumberland, for his having consented to become President of the Society. Mr. Rosvceorr seconded the motion. lie could not help expressing a hope that it would he the end" stud result of their labours, to remove the stain of Mendicity epon the' three kingdoMs altogether and for ever. They had all seen what had been done in the City. They had all known how the semen had been relieved. It had been seen how their distress hadlieen not only alleviated, but removed. If any man had been asked • their 'oulsoher, he-would perhaps have computed it at thoessilds,beteellectedly, they had fallen short of 1500. The great majority of them had bee° very much in waist, and well deserved the assistance they procured; 500 of them were in em ployment ; 600 would soon be se,":end a very small number in proportion would-give any trouble or dir. flculty to the Committee. He mentioned that, to show how much less our erils'were in reality than in imagination. Phould ithe said, that the country that paid 12.000,0001. a' year for tea and tobeccoodroeld not assist and even remove Mendicity ? His °pilaw, was, that every slate and' stage- of Mendicity could and ought to be prevented. - '" Mr. iluser said,' he feared - the gaell.lhey would; he elate to do, noraithstenang threeeeellence their object, and the•time and talents employed in it, would be very limited. Their present funds, he understoorl, amounted, in the whole, to about 20001. Wow Mr. Colnohnon, in his well-known work on the Police , of tbPietropelis, had said, that no less than 20,000 p.etions rose every morning in Loudon , who did net know how to procure a breekfast, and if that were troll, as Imbed no doubt it watt, the funds of the Socieretwuuld do littlelnore than purchase the one. - H.tett comet - need almostritat-those funds never woultterapadequate Le the object proposed—;fie re. morel off Mendicity. • It Atli been hinted, that they intended 'to apply to Parliament: If they did, he hoped they would impress epos t:.at House the rie srv4ity of limit &foisting ; but when be saw the Other 1 17s^.!'k' . T..:_ :7"; THE STA' day 400,0001. sent to She King of Spain, on a pretest (l*d - cries of question !) he was merely •going to observe, if he had not been interrupted, that he could have wished to have seen similar sums appro priated to the relief of the wretched at home. Mr. Hunt was proceediAg amidst cries of got:lion and no politic:, whets the Chairman rose and submitted to him whether the course •he was adopting, was! relevant to a motion of thanks. Mr. Hunt con.' tinned, that unless they got the assistance of Par-I filament with large Sums of money, they had no chance of success. He agreed must cordially with so much of. the Report as he had beard, particularly that . part which recommended that all sturdy beggars be dealt with as they deserve. The Object of the Meeting he thought 'Most praiseworthy, and as far as his means would go either in perms or pocket, they were at their service.• ' The vote of Thanks to the Duke of Northumber land Was then put, and carried unanimously. Mr. C. BARCLAY thought the evil one that no gislature could entirely remedy ;, but the Society, might do much good. He concluded by moving the Thanks of the Meeting to the several Noblemen and Gentlemen wino had accepted the office of 'Vice-Pre sidents of the Society. Mr. JOSEPH HUME seconded the motion. He be lieved the Worthy Chairman would submit some thing to the Legislature that would produce five thousand-fold the effect that that Society could do. 1 But, because they could not do all, were they to do nothing ? They could not get to the•top of the lad. der by taking the first step. It was only by exer tion that they could hope to succeed. The motion was carried unanimously. - Mr. Tooxe moved the Thanks of the Meeting to Mr. Martin, for his exertions in the cause.; and that he should be requested to accept the office of Vibitec to the Society. In making that motion, he die) it with the same feelings with which he would have done it tp Howard for his investigation of prisons, or to Granville Sharpe and Mr. Clarkson, who had so strenuously exerted themselves for the Abolition of the Slave Trade. Mr. DUNCAN CAMPBELL. seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. • Mr. JOHN SMITH moved that -Mr. W. Williams should be thanked for his .ervices as Treasurer, and should be requested to continue the same;. which was seconded by Mr. MARTIN, and carried unanimously. A Board of Management was appointed, and a set of Auditors; and after several other Gentlemen had spoken, the Thanks were given to the Chairman for his services, and the Meeting broke up. p %VP " 15 " . . 1 • ~~ ••.•. , c7prn.c . ..-~.F .

The report of the extensive deliveries from the warehouse, last week, above 4000 casks; for seats rai weeks the deliveries being greater than the last year, the favourable accounts from the country•as to trade, and a short supply at the not-ports, occasioned a very considerable request for Mescovadea this fore noon; the demand was chiefly by the wholesale grocers, in anticipation of so extensive home trade: the prices were generally a shade.-higher. The par chase, are estimated to exceed 1000 casks. The market is still indifferently supplied with Re. fined goods i - the prices were folly maintained, ex cept cro.hetl, which was purchased rather lower.— D o uble Loaves have been sold in considerable par cels at 955. a 109.4. on board; there has also been a tuiry for strong Lumps. good emu 'y For ilavaniiah or Brazil Sugars there are camel derable enquiries, but few parcels offer ;Ass! week./ 1376 hags Bengal Sugars were breeght forward by public sale; the greater proportion was taken at high prices—some ordinary yellow auld at 451.; good 475. 6d. a 48s 6d. . • , • iiis• — • COFFLE.—The demand for Coffee this creek has commenced rather languid ; there were few purchases by private contract yesterday ; this forenoon the public •'sale has gone off very heavily, generally at a reduction of Is. a 2s. per cwt. ; it consisted. of 110 casks and 407 bags; the first part Dutch Coffee, middling, which last week realised 1081. and 109 s. sold to-day at 1070 ; good middling, which last week sold freely at 1124. went off beavil7. at 110 s. 6d.; fine middling, formerly 114 s. and 115 s. sold at 11fIs.; the Triage, and good ordinary, nee rly,supported the late prices; 20 casks good- to fine middling.
