The lad, it appeared, had been wandering near Westminster Abbey, and on being questioned by some gentlemen, said he was endeavouring to find out his uncle, but all the direction he had was " Charles Hopkins, a sawyer, London." He was completely destitute, with the exception of a small bundle, containing a clean pair of stockings, a shirt, and a Bible. Mr. Howell said, that the lad had been given into his charge, as he had no home to go to, and he had been taken care of at the station-house for the night. The lad's statement was as follows —He said that his name was Joseph Hopkins, his father had been a sailor, and about two years and a half ago he placed himself with a Mr. Joseph Gore, a farmer, at Chilwell, about four miles from Liver pool, from which port his father had sailed for Ness York, but on the voyage had fallen overboard, and his mother had been dead many years. He was 11 years of age,and had continued with his mas ter until no few days ago, when, from the distress of the times,. he bad been obliged to sell off and discharge his sers;:es. Ile received from hie mas ter 30e., and with this sum travelled to London. At Northampton he slept in a room with a Jew pedlar, who robbed him of all his money. The landlord of the house gave him Is. 6d., and he still continued his journey, and on the road he met with a drover, who gave him his meals to assist him to drive his cattle to London. He did riot expect to have any difficulty in finding his uncle, as he under stood that he lived at Pimlico, which he thought was a street. Mr. Marriott advised the lad to find his way back again to Chilwell, and ordered him to be discharged. A gentleman, who happened to be present in the office, found the poor lad outside crying bitterly; he questioned him minutely, and from the artless and intelligent manner in which he repeated his story, he believed him. He geit the lad a bed for the night in the neighbourhood. He was strictly questioned by several of the officers, who all believed his story to be correct, and on the following day the gentleman got him a situation with Mr. Gowlaud, of No. 56, Nelson-square, Black friars-road, who was highly pleased with the lad. The boy repeated his story, and Mr. Gowland wrote on Monday, the 3d ofjannary, to his master, and also to the High Constable in that neighbour hood. The lad appeared highly delighted with his situation, and executed every command with the greatest alacrity. He appeared to be grateful for the least kindness, and shewed the utmost attention and assiduity. So far (lid he pin the esteem of his master, that he tV a S intrusted with various small sums of money to purchase article , in the neighbourhood, and on one occasion was sent to a house with some valuable plate. On Tuesday the lth instant, his mistress sent him to a butter shop in Blackfriars-road to buy some eggs, and gave him a shilling and some halfpence. The lad ran into the kitchen for his hat, and again coining int, the parlour said he was sure the shilling would hr sufficient, and put down the halfpence. He went Out, but never returned since. Every inquiry was made for him, but in vain. It was now supposed that the lad tees a gross impostor, and that he had been leagued with thieves to rob the house, and this suspicion was in some measure corroborated by the following circumstance :—About eight o'clock the same evening that the lad disappeared, a young fellow, about eighteen years of age, of rathe. a forbidding appearance, called at Mr. &low land's house, aad requested to speak to him. He said that he understood that he wanted a servant to look after a horse and gig, and clean knives, &c. Mr. Gowland inquired who sent ;inn. The stranger re plied that a mall had sent him, but lie did not knoss who he was. On being further questioned, the stranger said that he lived in Windmill -street, New-cut. lie was told he was riot wanted, and accordingly went away. Information was given to several of th'e police stations of the circumstance, with a descrip tion of the b o y if he should chance to be picked up, but no tidings could be heard of him. Yesterday a letter was received from the High Constable of Pres cott, near Chilwell, to whom th e b oy ' s statement had been sent, to inquire into the truth of his story, and contrary to every , expectation it was stated to be perfectly correct. Not only did his late master, Mr. Gore, give him the highest character for ho nes ty an d integrity, but all the , he hi g hl y respecta bl e farmersclergy man in th e ne i g hb our h oo d raisfChilw e ll a l so b ore test i mony to .The of th e b oy, an d of f ere d to d o joinedtae: excellent i)o of parish o character any thing in his power for him. The case was now involved in more mystery than ever. The circumstance of his leaving the halfpence w h en h e went for theeggs showed that he had no intention of absconding, and leaving his clothes and Bible behind him (the latter lie c consideredu h greatest treasure) confirmed that f t strange lad c a lli ng the same evening about t. The his place, sent by a man h e k new not hi ng about, coupled with the exce ll ent c h aracter t h e lad a t e has received, has occasioned tome feasktd,and dark surmises. Several old police-officers 'were yester day consulted, and but cue Opinion could be formed. The unfortunate orphan, there is little doubt, has been trepanned by some diabolical villain, for pur poses which we scarcely dare mention, but which have not been uncommon in Scotland. Windmill street. is notorious as being the resort of thieves of every description, and if rumour is in any way to be relied on, worse characters than thieves infest that street. Information of the above mysterious cir cumstances were yesterday given to L division of the police, at the, station-house, in the Waterloo road, where a full description of the lad's person and dress was taken down. CAUTION TO LEARNED GENTLEMEN.- We are authorised to state that some impudent scoundrel is doing about town ac t ua ll y c h eat i ng t h e l awyers ! How ever incredible this Tiny appear, it is en unquestionable fact; and the way in which he does it is this :—ln the iieeness of a corch-porter, he comes to the house or cham bers of the Learned Gentleman he intends to cheat, with a n eatly-done-up tape-tied parcel, directed to the Learned Gentleman, and hewing in every respect the outward semblance of a regular law parcel from the country, with a coach-office ticket tucked under the tape, on which ticket divers claim s in money are set forth as and fur the carriage and porterage thereof. The time at which he brings the said parcel is in the evening, after office-hours, when the clerk s have loft, and when the Learned Gentle man himself is either at dinner, or a party, or at a theatre, as the case may happen to be. Of course the maiden or foot-boy of the Learned Gentleman pays the charge for carriage and porterage, as set forth in the ticket, and takes in the parcel, never doubting that the transaction is perfectly regular and correct; but when the said parcel comes to be opened afterwards, either by the Learned Gen tleman himself, nr by some other person legally authorised so to do, instead of law papers and instructions, nothing is found to be therein contained save and eecept divers pieces of pasteboard and old packing paper. In this way many Learned Gentlemen and highly-respectable solicitors have been made 2ninus from three to five shillings each ; and the only satisfaction they have been able to obtain, by inquiry at the coach-office from which the parcel purported to have come, is, th a t t h ey k now not hi ng a b o ut it, far ther than that they have had more than twenty conunun.t cations from Lear ne d G ent l emen w h o h ave b een treate d in the same way. Mr. INGHem, of Westoe, then rose to move the first resolution. In doing so, he observed that tote resolutions treated the subject under three heads— the justice and expediency of Reform; the claim of South Shields to be entrusted with the privilege of sending its own members to a reformed Parliament; and the methods by which the Reform was to be effected. As to the first, it would not be necessary for him to dilate upon it at any length ; and that for a reason which might appear a paradox. This was perhaps the first public meeting that had ever been held in South Shields on this subject; whereas Parliamentary Reform had, elsewhere, been the topic of periodical exhibition. The subject was now worn nearly bare, and in order to create any excitement corresponding with the real importance of the crisis the speakers had found themselves driven to a vehe mence of invective, and an exaggeration in their schemes, that would revolt the calm sense of a meeting like the present, if introduced there, and were, indeed, unbecoming the sobriety of English men, discussing a question of vast moment.—(Hear.) He should, therefore, without dwelling on the evil of the system to revile it, state the substance of the first resolution ; which was, that the representation had departed from the true constitutional principle, that those who bore the burthen of taxation should elect representatives who had to fix its approbation and amount.—(Cheers.) In proof of this principle it would be pedantic to affect any research into early history; and, indeed, such research would be su perfluous : for education had spread so generally, and sound information was conveyed in such popular and obvious forms, that the mere passenger in the streets, who looked through the bookseller's window, might learn enough to decide the question.— (Cheers.) The question was as to the principle of our Constitution—the answer " liberty;" and the rest of liberty the controul of taxation.—(Hear.) — In various free countries there had been various tests of freedom. In some, it had been the election sf Magistrates ; in others, the command of the military force. With us, it had ever been the regulation of the taxes. In early periods of the Constitution, the Parliament of Edward contained Knights of the Shire, elected by the Freeholders, and Burgesses, chosen by the Freemen of the Boroughs. The Freeholders sustained the assessment on lands, and the Freemen, who were, in those days, the house holders and master tradesmen of the towns, bore the greatest charge of all the taxes on moveable goods, because, at that period, the stocks of their trade were, almost, the only personal property known in the country. The history of Parliament shewed, that, from time to to time, as the wealth and population of the country shifted, some towns were adopted into the class of Parliamentary boroughs, and others omitted. That (said Mr. I.) was the genuine practice ; and what the Reformers now proposed was not innovation, but a return to the approved old course.—(Loud cheers.)—lt was a panic fear to imagine, that, by adapting the Legislature anew to the wants of the country, we should be pulling down the fabric of our liberties. These had only been placed in danger by the com paratively modern practice of considering the pre -cut arrangement permanent.—(Hear.)—And that *tic!) practice was of no more than comparatively modern origin was established by the fact, that it was not a century and a half since the arrangement was altered, that the county of Durham might be Amitted. And why ? Because, as the preamble of ihe Act stated, it had been bound by the statutes of the land, without having a voice in the choice of the members by whom those statutes were im posed !—(Hear, hear.)—Ought not the law for Durham then to be the rule for Shields now ? (Cheers.)—Was not the present importance of South Shields, as contributing to the Revenue, pro portionately greater than that of the entire county, when the franchise was granted to the latter ? Open the book of their Customs, and they would find, in every page, entries of the wealth brought to the treasure of the nation, by the industry of their ma nufacturers—manufacturers unequalledin the country for the extent, the enterprise, and solidity of their dealings.—(Cheers.)—lt was not, however, their manufacturers only, but the proprietors of the nt:ighbouring collieries, expending great sums in wage=, that were laid out on taxed articles, that ought to be admitted to the franchise; and, above all, the owners of their shipping, the great authors of the wealth and strength of the country, whose interests were, perhaps, the most important, and the least protected, of any.—(Great cheering.)— In saying that the shipping interests of the country were unprotected, he did not mean to deny that many Members of Parliament, from the north of England, had occasionally listened, with much courtesy, to the applications of the town. It was not fitting, however, that this protection should de pend upon the courtesy of any individual : it ought not to be the task of the people of Shields to beg around, amongst the Members of the House of Commons, for protection as a matter of grace. They ought to have some representative of whom they might demand it as a matter of right—some one appointed by their favour, and responsible to it—familiar with their local interests, accessible, at all times, to their call, and ready with his efforts, on every emergency, to avert any evil that might threaten, or to improve any opportunity that might have a promise of good.—(Cheers.) Arid if the mag nitude of their local interest required this boon of the elective franchise, the character of their popu lation proved that they deserved it. He would refer the Magistrates to bear witness to the orderly character of their townsmen; who brought, in com parison with other towns of equal population, neither paupers to the workhouse nor criminals to the gaol.—(Hear.)—ln Shields, a communion of kindly feeling pervaded every rank. In that which was the main traffic of the place, there was not the distance, between the employer anti the em ployed, which might exist elsewhere : it was not with the ship-owners as with other capitalists,— that their early years had been spent in merely speculative preparation for their business ; for most of them had learnt their calling practically, having, in their youth, been themselves at sea, and they thus knew, by experience, that their prosperity depended, not so much on the wise and liberal outlay of capital, or even upon the skilfulness of the master, as on the enterprise, the courage, and laborious and faithful discipline of the crew. With this cordial sympathy running through every rank, he was indifferent to whom, amongst them, the franchise might be given —and however widely it might be extended he should apprehend no evil; for he felt well assured that all the excitement of an election would pass by, not merely without any breach of the law, but with out even any breach of good neighbourhood.— (Hear.) As to this, hoietever, the third division of their resolutions, they dictated nothing. They knew that his Majesty's Government, who had to bring for '• ol ' r 'te.measure ;if Reform ; would have to elect a .fl. r .st enauyeplatirtr; so as reasonably to satisfy all; and it would be to embarrass, not to strengthen, them in their duty, if the meeting were to urge upon them any opinion foanded upon partial views. --(Cheers.) Mr. Ingham then thanked the meet ing for the attention they l ,i i e d st g io k n -e , n ab hi s t , e ,r , b N i ; n il g lic t h e l r i y e said, he was well awar e was exclusi ve ly d ue to the consideration t ra t t l i t o ey n f i e ts lt to o the th isn questio n , in which it had been brought before them ; and he concluded by moving the first resolution,which was seconded by Mr. Hen- GRAVE, of the Shields and Newcastle Bank. The CHAIRMAN then said, Olt before any glees tion was put to the meeting upon the particular res' - luiions, it would be right to invite any gentlemen who wished to express his opinions upon the subject of Reform generally, to present himself to the meet ing. For his own part, he said, he had ever been he friend of Reform. From want of it, they had gone to war with America, on grounds which a re- formed Parliament would have scouted, and had left the country, at the end of that war, in 200 millions of debt.—(Cheers.) From want of it, too, they had rushed into a war with France, which increased that debt to 800 millions, and had produced all the distress which, perhaps, had brought the meeting together eo zealously ro-day.—(Cheers.) Ile was glad to meet them, and approved of their activity : but he feared that, in what they sought from the Legislature, their wishes would be disappointed. — (No, no.) Mr. KIRKM then rose and said he must state the result of his own experience as a ship-owner, as to the shameful extent to which the shipping; inte rests were neglected. If any remonstrance had to be made to Parliament against the most destructive measures, it was with difficulty a Member could be prevailed upon to undertake it ; and when the grievances of the ship-owners were stated to the House, they were too often met with sneers and de rision. —(Hear.) This ought not to be. It was not only the shipping, but the great manufacturing inte rest of the town, that required encouragement. Look at the inexhaustible tracts-of coal and lime in the neighbourhood. There was no limit to the prospe rity to which the town might rise, if it should receive adequate protection. It was not his habit •to urge his opinions in public; but the pressure of the occasion overcame all reserve.—(Cheers.) The first resolution was then put and carried. Mr. JOHN BRANDLING (the owner of the South Shields collieries) stood forward to move the second resolution, and was received with great applause.--- He stated that it was only on the night before he had learnt that the meeting was to take place, and he had hastened to attend it at the first summons. He rejoiced to mix with such a meeting—to join a body of men for whose opinions he had much regard, and with whose interests his own were deeply in volved—especially on an occasion which promised much benefit to the neighbourhood, and, at the same time,concerned a cause of great natiohal moment. When he spoke of his own interests there,he hoped he might be allowed to say, that beyond :my profit these might render to him, he rejoiced in the comforts they oc casioned to others—in the numbers who found em ployment in the collieries, and deserved, by their in dustry and good conduct, all the comforts they en joyed.—( Cheers.) And as a coal-owner, he felt, as they all must do, how thoroughly their cause was embarked with that of the ship-owners.—(Hear.) He knew how nearly the same commercial causes affected the prosperity of both ; and he could not but most earnestly hope that they should obtain, in a Reformed Parliament, the protection that had been withheld from them under the present system. —(Cheers.) It was a discredit to the country that. their great Rational interest should have been so long neglected in the representation—that Shield=, and Sunderland, and Whitby, and other shipping ports, should have been debarred of representatives, while many petty towns around them, as Northal lerton, Ripon, and Richmond, have had their's.— (Hear.) He called the shipping the great national interest ; for however we might admire the gal!an try of our soldiers, and be thankful for their services, it was to the seamen of England that we owed the most. In peace they were the best friends of eur commerce ; and, in war, the wooden walls of Old Inglund were emphatically the national defence. — (Cheers.) And it was not merely the interest of the ship-owner—it was not even the interest of those, Eke himself (Mr. B.), throve by his pros perity—that representatives were required to pro tect. The honest and gallant sailor must have some one to speak for him.—(Hear.) Who was there that knew not there were hardships in his lot, which every man with a British heart would strive to re medy ? It was grievous to think of the miseries of impressment.—(Cheers.) A reformed Parliament should look to this : there should be patriotism enough amongst us to engage the sailor in our de fence, by the comforts and honours of the service— not to drag him into it by a press-gang.—(Cheers,) Let those who lived at ease, and who were safe by the sailor's peril, contribute the bounty for the King's ship; and let as not, in the misfortune of another war, have to man our navy by the press—our own shame, and the sailor'. sorrow.—( Hear.) Their worthy Chairman had foretold that the meeting would be disappointed in their wishes. There, however, he (Mr. B.) differed from him. The prayer of their petition must be heard, for it was a just prayer ; and if they persevered, it would be granted.—(Cheers.) His Majesty's Government had promised largely to the people, and we expected, of right, a liberal performance; but those premises could never be ratified, unless there was a strong popular feeling to support them in their measures. The CHAIRMAN and Mr. Brandling mutually ex plained. We understood the Chairman's doubts to apply to the wording of the requisition, which asked for Representatives in the plural; and which die worthy gentleman thought was more than could be granted. Mr. BRANDLING observed, that however he might have mistaken the purport of Mr. Fairless's remarks, be never could so fur mistake his intention as not to avow that, on all occasions, it was most favourable to the prosperity of the place. We regret that we have not space to give, at length, the speeches of Mr. Salmon, Mr. Fell, and the other gentlemen who addressed the meeting later in the course of the proceedings. All the resolutions were discussed and voted se parately ; and not one dissentient voice was heard throughout the day. It appears that the overtures for the suppres sion of the book called The Turf' have terminated unsuc cessfully, and that it will be published forthwith. We understand it will contain a full expose of some recent transactions in high places which will rather astonish the Sporting world. Let the Meltonians and the Jockey Club look to it. Will they be able to exclaim, after reading this book " our withers are unwrung ?" MAKING AN ODD FELLOW.—One evening last week, a neighbouring farmer arrived in Sheffield, as he said, to be made an Odd Fellow ! He had heard that odd-fellowship was a good thing, and lie liked to partake of good things. While he was waiting in an ante-room cf a celebrated hotel, not a hundred miles from the Town hall, a gentleman, knowing his object, inquired how he felt—" Oh," says the farmer, " weel enough." " very well you do," says the other, " as you will be better able to stand the rubbing of a red-hot ,flat-sided poker on your left hip, which is now preparing." " Ay, what do they dO that for?" " To prevent your running away ; and so as they may know their members."— He was sure they should not sear him, and never a man in England should do it ! The time, however, ar proached for the farmer to undergo the initiative operation of being made an Odd Fellow, which ceremony the party commenced by tying a handkerchief over his eyes. This immediately recalled to the farmer's mind the " flat-sided" poker, the horrors of which brought on an alarming fit of trembling, during which he exclaimed they should not bluft him, and, spreading his long arms, he instanter laid half a dozen of the operators on their bark•. Having thus extricated himself, the farmer scampered down rails, ordered his hore immediately, " and Aelpit on throull mud and mire," till lie arrived at home more like Buns's " Tarn Shanter," than a dauntless candidate for is mystic sash; having, as he lowship Iris. said, got enough o f odd.fei- ; - ,41,ai4 SOUTHALL MARKET.—Jan. 12.
