DENT INST ITU'flON..Anunig the various expedients to lessen the sunniest' idlerfeti'and vice among the inferior classes, none has opeiated With• greater success than the Institution which we are this day met to patronize and support. It strikes at the root ofpaupyrisin and itulistriminitegrattritous boOnty,—two of the Most 'fortitidable obstructiOns to muinal .imProvement with 'which the poor in general hare to contend. Your Committee are happy to perceive that the fundamental. principle of this Institotion is at length recognised and acted upon by several parishes; and that alpirit of enquiry, as to the best merle relieving the necessitous, is noW abroad. The parish of ,Walcot, in Bath, has adopted aplan ' which in one year reduced the paruChial expenditure i, 0 3 31 . The parishes of Cliester hearing of this system of Parochial .Eco mossy, applied to the Ovepeers of Walcot for information on .the subject, which by the latter Was readily afforded; and which unequivocally states that, except in cases of sickness, extreme old age, and infancy, tend was never bestowed, but as the stimulus or the reward of industry.' Nothing can be more rational nor more productive of real advantage to the distressed poor than the plan detailed by these - judicious Parish Officers, which, if' universally adopted in connection with Provident Institutions supported also by the parish, will go far to annihilate PauperiSm, and to wipe off this foul re proach from 'the social economy of England. This, aid nor suicide, has besanne out Island's shame, and the mass of our population will never be virtuous, contented, or happy, until it is completely renioved. By a reference"to a paroChial expenditure of the past arid present year inOur own. parish, it will be evident that our rates have been materially reduced, while our ! populai idtt has been rapidli on the. advance. This is in a great riiiiiisOre tO be attributed to the wisdom, energy, and firmness of Mar Assistant Overseer, Mr. Chassereau, and the room:age:went afforded blurb). the Directors and Guardians; and it isOnly necessary for these authOrities to support the Provident Re stitution, toi render the poor l rates for the future an insignifi cant.bagatelle. Your Committee report, with unmingled satisfaction, at; • increase of one hundred poor "families' as subscribers Waite • Institution, making a .total of 130, during the present year; comprising no less than 53 9 indisiduals, the greatr part of whew, in all probability, would have 'required, during" the winter, parochial assistance; hut who are nnw, in anse- qtrenee of having regularly paid their weekly money, entitled to a very liberal provision of the principal necessaries of life At a season of the year whet' otherwise they would have been exposed either to the moral degradation of pauperism, or to the must distressing personal privations. In order to supply the requisite articles of food, clothes, and fuel, of the very hest quality, to these deserving families and individuals, the Committee have effected the folloWing contracts :—Meat 31.1. Per pound ; Flour, 16d per gallon; Coals, 16u1 per bushel; Flannel, 13d per yard; so that. the' poor family which during the skimmer months subscribes to 64'; per week, receives 8s 6d per week during thirteen weeks in' winter, which is laid out by the Committee on the above rooSt advantageous terms; nearly doubling the amount in the ne cessary articlesof life. The funds of the Institution are in a flourishing state., and • will enable the Committee to commence the ensuing year un der the most flattering auspices ; still, however, exertions , are necessary, as it.may fairly be anticipated that as the ad-' vantages of the lost it utiondaccome better known, the number of applicants ,will greatly increase. It is confidently hoped that an Institution . which confers unntingled good on the -ob jects of its benevolence; which thrOws every farthing of its. income into the treasury of industry and .economy; which draws the line between virtue and profligacy; whick lessens the parochial barthetii at the very Moment it is inoutoting, in the highest degree, the well-being of those who would otherwise .increase those burfliens,—will continue to enjoy. the patronage of the great, .the contributiens of the wealthy, and the personal support of all who desire to ameliorgte th e condition of the poor, and to advance the interests of genuine morality. Your Committee likewise indulge sanguine expectations that a certain sum will be annually allowed by the Directors and Guardians; fur the purposes of the Institutiors„feeling as they do, perfectly assured, that a sum so devoted will .1u; a very short time treble its amoont, in a saving of the poor rates. Ihry would also respectfully suggest - to the benevolent visitors and residents of this intrueuise town, that if they would make the Provident Institutiop the chief Medium of their bounty, they would 'protect themselves from imposture, and no longer be doomed to encounter the importunity of the idle and vicious. Thos would our streets be freed from their worst nui!attee, while every individual that really required assist ance, arid had a reasonable claim upon the compassionate, . would be effectually. relieved.

Thai this 'Meeting derive the highest satis faCtion from the Report of the• Committee now read, as it displays the anxiety of the .deserving poor, to place them selves, by industry and . economy, at 'the greatest possible dis tance front the degrading evils of pauperism; and that the same be printed for general circulation.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. Bow-STREET.—On Saturday a messenger came to "Sir RICHARD BUINIE from the " True Briton." office, in the Strand, to inquire if he had authorized two of his oSloss to break open the door for the purpose of taking forcible sion of the premises ; as they had stated that they had tis orders to that effect, and had accordingly attempted to cirry them into execution. Sir RICIIAiD Bnu4 iE said he bad done no such thing, and immediately dent down to the Strand to know if any of 'the of. fivers belonging to hi:, office had presumed to dO what was stated. The messenger brought back word that two constables had broken open the door ; bat neither of them b:.-longed to Bow-street. Ina few minutes afterwards, another person arrived to make a similar inquiry, and presently a third, a fourth, and afiftli. By this time it seemed evident that the possession of .the pre inivA was fiercely disputed- kir R. Blade receivad a letter from Lord Rearm, complaining that forcible possession of a house of which his Lordship was proprietor was held by a per: son who was merely his Lordship's servant. • Sir ltiqutn declined all interference in a case yrhere the right of) ossess ion was contended. " • The house, it Seems, was now converted into a fortress ; • and the compositors, pressmen, and devils into a garrison, from which- expresses continued to arrive at the office every •five ininiitea. At length Mr. Stockdale, one. of the, proprietors pf The paper; . appeared, followed by some other persons, and com'- plqined to the Magistrate that a person who had been a partner of his held forciblepossession of a house of which Lord Kenyon was the 'propriitor and in pursdanee of his Lor,dship'idirec tions, he (Mr; Stockdale) had brought two constables, who ,forced open the door ; but meeting with a greater force inside, they were.eipelled with violence and ill-treated. His friend, Mr. Swift, he said, had been struck, and Very much hiirt. ' The Magistrate said that he could not enter into the question of right of possession; Mit if any person had been assaulted, he would'of course grant a warrant againSt the party who had so assaulted him. 31r. Swift.r.ow cameforward, appearing very lame, and stated That he was a barrister, And had accompanied Mr. Stockdale in to the house when the door was forcedoven, and was there struck by two men whose names he did not know, but whose perso.:s he could identify. He had also, he added, been collared by Mr. Merle, the person illegally holding possession. A warrant was accordingly issued against those three indi viduals. They had no sooner left the office. than Mr. Westmacott, and a party of Mr. Merle's fritinds, replaced them. Mr. NVestma cott asked Sir Richard Birnte if he had granted a warranfagainst Mr. Merle ? Sir RICHARD Said he had ; and asked how he came to .keep forcible possession of those premises ? Mr. Ntrestmatott replied, that he was justified in doing so, as he was the proprietor of thfrn: Sir K. BIIMIE observed, that he must then saya Peer of the realm was .a liar.; for Lord Kenyon had expresSly stated that,his Lordship ivas the .propietor: Mr. Westmacott answered, that he would haveno.hesitation in saying that his Lordship was wrong,if he,condescended to make a mis-statement ; but not in such coarse lanknage.. His Lordship certainly deceived himself in stating the facts cob tained in his letter. He was. merely one of three,partners, namely, his. Lordship, Mr. Stockdale,.and Mr. Merle, of whom Mr. Merle was the conducting partner, and had'been iii posieS sion of the house for 18 months past. Mr. Stockdale now re-entered the, Office, and informed the Magistrate that the warrant could not be executed, as the other party would not open the door. .Magtstrate-11 ell; Sir, we cannot help that. Westmacott--Their object is to prevent the.publication of the paper. Mr. Stockdale—No such thing : his Lordship's and our ob. ject is to promote the publication of the paper. Mr. Westmacott—Give me the names of the persons who, -you say, have committed an assault, and they shall give bid instantly. Mr. S.tockdale—We cannot do that ; for some persons have assaulted Mr. Swift, whose names he does not know. Mr. Westmacott —I think my Lord Kenyon would have bet ter consulted his character and his dignity, by.not malting the statement imputed to him. • • Mr. stockaale_Ant I contented with what is done, your worship ? Magistrate—You are best judge of. that, Sir. We can do no thing more. The warrant is in' the hands 9f an officer who will do his duty. The parties then withdrew, it being first understood that they were again to. attend in the evening, when, Sir, ,Biehard.Birnie suggested to Mr. Stockdale, it would be right. that Lord-Kea yon should be resent. • At about 3 o'clock, however, Mr. Merle came to the office, and requested of the Magistrate to accept „bail for his appear ance, and discharge the warrant. The other, men charged With the assault were also 'present, and he offered bail for therwlike e said .his only motive for keeping possession of the house, although it was entered in his name, was, that thetre ditors of the establishment might be settled with before he gave up the printing implements - which had been sent to the . Office upon his (Mr. Merle's) credit. The Magistrate, after some discussion, . consented to aerept bail for his appearance at the sessions, upon his undertaking to attend at the office in the evening. Bail was accordingly given. In the evening Mr. Merle appeared, pursuant to his promise, attended b r y .seyeral other persons, and Ar. C. Phillips as-his Mr. MiNsuuri. read a letter from Mr.- Stockdale, in which hestated, ;that in consequence of Mr.. Swift's pain having in creased, to excess, he was obliged to have, him conveyed home at six o'clock; and as he could . not attend, it was useless for bins (Mr. Storkdale) to go , to the office that evening. He should look to some other mode of proceeding,, as Lord Kenytlin-Vas farcibly kept out orthe . pisession . of his own, house. • Mr. Pnii.r.tp . s said, he was-afraid 'he 'Could not leave it to Mr. Stoekdale's option whether he would attend or not. He was apprehensive in consequence of Oieputrage winchhadheen committed; that he should be under the neCessit Of compelling the attendance of-Mr. Stoekdale, and Of his friend Mr. S*ift too. A most brutal and . outrageous attack: had been madeon Mr. Merle's house at noon day, when the doors were,hroken open With - sle4es and hammers ;' and that, tot), when they knew there was a lady ill in . it. They said it 'was done un d er the. authority of Sir, Richard Birnie . but that he (Mr. Phillips) was convinced was untrue. Anti: it appeared to be the more vexatious, as it was done when the paper was going to press': Mr. Nlissirtim.' said that some 'persons had assaulted Mr. Swift ; byt as the other party did notattend, hs would suspend the warrant. • Sir. 'PIIILX.IPS.observed, that those persons were now in at tendance ; and it would, be inconvenient to them to have a War rant susnentled over their heads, because Mr. Stockdale, in his cap ice, itid liot choose to attend. " That 1, 1 ,1 t. Swift was hurt„' he was extremely sorry to hear; he• had the pliasure'olknliwing him ; and he. was a banister. But surely if he: waS.sO irripiu dent as. to assist in an.act of violence.lke this,, he must e,xpect rough At ail eVents,. Mt:Sivift's inability to attend Was no 'ex cnie for. Mr. Stockdale's absence. • • - - • • ,1)1r, ixsgtlm..-,Well, then,. let those men, give, tlail and the warrant can be discharged. `Mr. PBrar I Pa—An Englishman cannot, be expected to give bail whcre there is no information on oath against him. . _ :MINSIIII.I e I.--Tbat'.s very as a matter of con venience to ,M r. Merle, I consented, at request,. to - accept bail for him to day ; and I am willing to do the same no* for the other persOns. .31r. Piirm.rrs—Well:then,. on. behalf of Mr. Merle I now apply to you, Sir, for a warrant against *Mr; StoCkdale. far a forcible entry into Mr.' Merle's prciiiies: •• • , • '• •• . • ar: let NI.. A;letle go into thy. Clerk's Office, and.see if he can talc the. necessary oath. • The parties went accordingly into the Clerk's Office, whither Mr. Minshull follciwed them; and after some further tliSeins slim there, , • • 11r. 1 1NSII.ULL said, that as. the other parties,did not op pear, hedid not think he bound to head. the 'el s effhatlant to bail. He was not quite certain, however. ;• but, at 41 ever:is,' he would not return Mr. Merle's recognizanec,s without 4ivihg him notice: in consideration of which Mi. Merle Wifhdiewi_lis.ap plication for the Warrant against Mr. Stoekdale; s blit"Said.- he .would indict him at ;he Sessions. „' • •
