A POPULAR HISTORY 07 TUX WORKING CLASSES. ADDRESSED TO THE WORKING CLASSES THEMSELVES [These articles being Copyright, the Author reserves to himself the privilege of further publication or translation.] PART FOURTH. CHAPTER THIRD. SUBJECT OF THE POOR-LAWS CONCLUDED.-PROGRESS OF THE ARTS AND MANUFACTURES DURING THE REIGN OF ELIZABETH. - AMUSEMENTS OF THE PEOPLE.-REFLECTIONS ON THESE. Having, in the last chapter, endeavoured to estab lish the policy of a compulsory provision for the poor, I shall next submit a few remarks on the description of persons to whom it ought to be restricted. Many who are in favour of a poor rate are still inclined to keep the amount at a minimum, and for this purpose have submitted the following sugFestions :.1. That no case of dis tress shall be eligible to relief unless it be casual, unavoidable, and such as ordinary prudence could not see or avert. 2. That able bodied labourers shall not be eligible for relief merely because they cannot obtain employment. 3. That neither a wife nor child per se shall constitute a claim to parish allowance. Under the first class of exclusions, a claim, on account of old age, would be rejected; since that is a calamity which comes on a man by degrees, and can always be full seen. Secondly, mere want of employment is often nothing more than one of those occasional depressions in demand for labour arising out of the changes of the seasons, or vicissitudes of trade, which are of periodical occurrence, and which workmen ought to be provided against. Thirdly, marriage is a voluntary act, for which the parties have nobody but themselves to blame, and conse quently cannot reasonably expect to escape the burdens they have deliberately brought upon them selves by throwing it on the shoulders of others. It is obvious that all these cases of exclusion from parish relief are founded—first, on the considera tion that they are all cases of distress, which, by the exercise of the prudential virtues, might be avoided ; secondly, on the consideration that by leaving such cases of distress to what may be termed their natural punishment, a powerful notive is created for the exercise of the forethought by which they may be avoided; and thirdly, that a public provision for such cases of di s t r ess is really granting a bounty on imprudence. My first remark on these deductions is, that before we rely on the prudential virtues as a provision for any description of indigence, we must be sure that such prudential virtues exist. If the habits of the poor, as I endeavoured to show in the previous chapter, are such as clearly indicate they do not exist, then they can neither be a remedy nor preven tive of that specific evil for which the poor-laws provide. The poor-laws, besides, have not been instituted for the relief of the destitute merely, but for the general peace and security of the community. They are not only an institution of charity, but of POLICE, to shield society from the evils of mendicity and crime. If we exclude the aged in distress, or the able-bodied in want of work, from the scope of their operation, we fail to obtain one great object of their establishment. The sufferers will not starve ; there fore they must either beg or steal, or be relieved. If we tolerate the first, in ever so limited a degree, we open a door for the admission of the greatest evil the poor-laws were meant to exclude ; and if mendicity be allowed, in conjunction with a poor rate, the community is at once afflicted with both. Therefore, I say, let there be no pretext either for begging or stealing ; let the poor-laws embrace , every kind of absolute destitution, whether it arise from old age or want of employment ; if the latter is occasioned by idleness or criminal misconduct, there are laws to punish the offender, and it is-the fault of the parish-officer if they be not enforced. Whether the destitution for which the poor-laws provide arises from improvidence or unavoidable necessity, is not so important a consideration as that persons and property shall be shielded from all pretext of violation ; and the security of these, and the justice and humanity of the laws by which they are guaranteed, I esteem wholly incompatible with any large portion of the community being in a state of extreme misery, without resource or means of alleviation. It will thus be seen that lam a decided advocate of the famous national institution of the Elizabethan age ; but though an advocate of the policy of the poor-laws, I am neither an advocate of the abuses in the laws themselves, nor in their practical administration. I now quit, for the present, the further discussion of the question of poor-laws, and proceed to the consideration of other matters in connection with our . subject, as respects the era which is under review. The prosperity . of the working classes, which we find so cheering in all its aspects throughout the Elizabethean age, may be principally ascribed to the work of the Protestant Reformation, together with the spirit of religious freedom and security which it tended to diffuse. One of the benefits indirectly accruing from it was in the encouragement which it ; gave to foreign workmen to come and settle in the country, who were glad to escape from the bigotry and persecution of their own governments. And to the credit of the English people at this period, let it be remarked that, instead of looking upon them in the same spirit of rivalry as their forefathers had done, they received them openly and with kindness —a hospitality which those strangers repaid by peopling our towns with an industrious order of working people, such as dyers, cloth-dressers, linen makers, and silk-throwsters. They brought with them n fact many improvements in the manufacturing arts which were unknown among the English artizans at that time, and laid the foundation of many new branches of trade—as, for instance, the making of baizes, serges, and other stuffs. These were chiefly taught by the Flemish manufacturers; while at a later period the revocation of the edict of Nantes produced a like tendency as the persecution of that people by the Duke of Alva had done—it impoverished France in its silk trade, and laid the foundation of the silk manufacture in England. Silk stockings, we learn, were introduced for the first time in this reign. Elizabeth spent her youthful days without ever having indulged in their luxury, for no less sufficient reason than that she could not get them. At length one of her courtiers presented her with a pair of black silk stockings he had procured from Spain which pleased the Virgin Queen so much that never afterwards would. she consent to wear stockings of any other material. At the same time, we learn that one Thomas Burdet, an ingenious apprentice, presented Lord Pembroke with a pair of worsted hose, the first knit in the country. While upon the subject of new manufactures, it may be as well here to notice others. And it is c urious to observe that, although spoons and knives seem to have been in use as early as the reign of Edward the Confessor, yet the fork was not known until the middle of this reig n . A well bred person at the present day would certainly stare to see a lady, over dinner, cut up her food with a knife in one hand, and convey it t o h er mouth between the fingers of the other, but such Was the custom with our fashionable as well as poorer ancestors previous to the age of Elizabeth. The manufactureofearthen ware does not seem to have been much. encouraged ,k although there is evidence that it was Wooden and pewter plates were chiefly usedlr andwn in the latter description of articles the English workmen became so famous that they were even prohibited by statute from quitting the kingdom, or imparting their mystery to foreigners. There were several other branches of trade, which formerly had been practised only in monasteries, that now fell into the hands of a useful body of artizans,—such of ti me as carving an d gilding, themanufacture pieces, and various other metallic arts. Nor mu s t we omit to make honourable mention of two other most useful articles, which, besides being now esteemed of so much importance in themselves, gave employment at that time, as they still continue to do, extensive employment to a large number of wol.kinen. I refer to the manufactilre of needles (1). To make 5,646 pins, weighing one pound, according to Mr Babbage's Economy of Machinery and Manufactures, occupies four men, four women, and two children, rather more than seven hours and a half of time, and the total expense of their labour, each being paid according to his skill and the time he is employed, amounts to nearly Is. Id. The ratio of the wages earned per day, by the persons so employed, varies from 41d. the sum paid to the boy who assists in twisting and cutting - the heads, to 6s. the sum paid to the man who finishes the most difficult part of the art. Of the seven hours and a half consumed, four are taken up by a woman in heading; rather more than two hours by another woman in preparing, and the remaining hour and a half is spent by the other eight persons in drawing the wire, straightening the wire, 'pointing and tinning. , To SHIPPERS AND EXPORTERS.—A most profitable article of .export, to warm climates especially, are the Self r cleansing Charcoal Filters, patented by Messrs. Saunders and Co., of 16, Parker-street, Liverpool—in fact they are invaluable wherever there is bad water. S. and Co. allow a liberal discount on export and wholesale orders. THE NEW RUSSIAN LOAN. —The first instalment is fixed for the Bth of May, and the loan will, therefore, be announced very shortly. The Daily News gives some authentic account of it. The issue price is 69 per cent., but practically 68. The loan will represent in cash eight and a quarter millions sterling. The portion reserved for the London market will only involve a cash withdrawal of two and three-quarter millions. The Continental subscriptions proffered exceed seven millions sterling, so that ttio succeq Of tii loan is already assured, and pins (1). It was only in this age•that the latter came into general use ; and the fair sex, who have now learned to appreciate their convenience, will be able to understand the excellent substitute they must have formed to the skewers made of wood, or ribbons and loopholes, which formed the usual fastenings of a female's attire in the Anglo-Saxon period. The introduction of coaches in this reign led likewise to the starting up of a new class of work men. The vehicles, however, which they then manufactured were very sorry affairs compared with the magnificent and comfortable equipages now in use, and must have been especially ill-adapted for the transport of invalids, who would be certain to experience a serious amount of jolting, which the want of springs and the bad roads together would tend to produce. They are thus described by a writer A coach," says he, " was a strange monster in those days, and the sight of it put both horse and man into amazement. Some said it was a great crab-shell brought out of China, and some imagined it to be some of the Pagan temples, in which cannibals adored the devil." The honour of their introduction, it appears, is due to William Bonnen, a Dutchman, who was the Queen's coachman. The amusements of the people at this period were of the most degrading character, and infamous for their barbarity. Bear-baiting and bull-baiting formed the chief delight of all classes—sports of which Elizabeth herself was an enthusiastic devotee. Bear-gardens, in fact, abounded in London ; and in the public places of the principal towns and villages of England, rings to which the bull was fastened were to be seen till the present century. One mode of baiting a bear, it appears, was in hoodwinking the animal, and in this condition it was surrounded by a circle of men who plied it incessantly with -whips. Nor was it only bulls and bears that were treated in this manner, but harmless apes were baited also ; and sometimes the bewildered creature was mounted on a fleet horse and galloped to and fro, while the crowd enjoyed the terror of both steed and rider. The equally bar barous practice of cock-fighting was also a favourite amusement ; houses were set apart for the sport, and a flag was displayed upon the building to give notice to the people that a main of cocks was about to be fought. The amusements of a people may perhaps be con sidered a fair standard of their morality. When their recreations are of a sensual character and we find intellectual pleasures neglected, we may reasonably conclude that the morals of the people are not of the strictest kind. When we compare the last century, for instance, with the present, how much may we congratulate ourselves in the improve ment that has taken place. In some classes it is more obvious than in others, but all have evidently im proved. It is however to the Working Classes that my observations will principally apply ; and in the change which has taken place in their amusements we have indeed great cause for gratulation. The disgusting sports in which they formerly indulged have given place to recreations of a very different character. It is true that cock-fighting, dog-fighting, and that most disgusting of all sports, pugilism, have not entirely passed away from among us, but then it is highly creditable to the working class'es that they leave this unmanly sport to be patronised by gentlemen alone ! Much of this change no doubt may be traced to the general and increasing desire for reading which is one of the most extraordinary features of the present age. This is a direct evidence of the improvement of the people, The number of periodicals published in London weekly and monthly is beyond calculation—l mean literary works—those which do not notice passing events, and therefore have none of the attractions of the newspaper. The demand for the latter however, is quite as great, perhaps greater than for the former, and the desire is shown too, by a class of persons, who hitherto have never been considered a portion of the reading public. In addition to these proofs of increasing intelligence what shall we say of the various literary institutions, and mutual improvement societies, if we do not admit that they evidence the progress of society ? Can we believe that the vast stores of knowledge that have been thrown open by these means have been productive of no beneficial results ? It is impossible. No man can deny the inevitable conclusion that must press upon the mind 'hen considering these things, and contrasting them with the past, that the people have increased in knowledge, have become wiser, have become happier, and have it in their power to become so more and more. Let us seek to encourage this feeling. Let us seek to make it understood " that these are not vulgar people," as has been wisely remarked, " merely because they live in small cottages and lowly places; but those are vulgar who, by their thoughts and deeds, strive to shut out any view of beauty." There are vulgar rich men as well as vulgar poor men. Being poor is not of itself a dis qualification for being a gentleman. To be a gentle man is to be elevated above others rather in senti ment than situation. And the poor man, with an enlarged and pure mind, may be happier, too, than his rich neighbour without this elevation. In the mechanic refined tastes are virtues. A partiality for art and literature not only imparts to him their native dignity, but raises him higher by contrast with the prevalent tastes of his class, and by association with the difficulties he has overcome in their pursuit. Nay, the mere vulgar manifeStations of ease and comfort—the carpet, the clock, the hardwood tables, and the easy chairs ; the clean linen, the good coat measured for the workman himself, not the cast-off finery of a richer man—are so many indications of good social habits and securities to society ; and, what is more important to the workman's family, against the dog-fight, and the gin-palace. Ebenezer Elliott, the mechanic poet, as he is termed, thus describes, with a masterly hand, the contrast between the home of the industrious and intelligent working man and that of the dissolute and improvident :- 1 You seek the home of taste, and find The proud mechanic there, Rich as a Kin?. and less a slave, Throned in his elbow chair. Or on his sofa reading Locke Beside his open door, Why start ? Why envy worth like his The carpet on the floor ? You seek the home of sluttery ? • " Is John at home ?" you say, " No, sir, he's at the Sportman's Arms,' The dog•-fight's o'er the way." 0 ! lift the workman's heart and mind Above low sensual sin ; Give him a home, the home of taste ; Outbid the house of gin. 3 O ! give him taste, it is the link Which binds him to the skies, A bride of rainbow thrown across The gulf of tears and sighs. Or like a widow's little one, An Angel in a child, That leads him to her mother's chair, And shows him how she smiled. THE NORTHER Iki TIMES; SATURDAY, APRIL 9/1859: THE LATE CIGAR CASE AT THE ASSIZES. THE " HABANA COMPANY" v. COPE. The London Standard publishes the following on this extraordinary case : A curious species of playful combat once became prevalent in certain circles of Parisian smokers. The two antogonists placed themselves in defiant attidudes so close to each other that the volume of smoke proceeding from each mouth and cigar came, without dispersion, full upon the hostile face. He who, under those circumstances, was the first to flinch was deemed loser in the game. A contest by no means dissimilar to the above was carried on at Liverpool, last Saturday (April 2), in the presence of Mr. Justice Byles and a special jury. Not only was the matter in dispute connected with smoke and puffing, but the discussion itself was of the nature of smoke, looking strong at first and attenuating as it went on. The plaintiffs, who of course blew the first whiff, were the Habana Cigar Company," proud of dealing in genuine articles, and hostile to that system of geography which gives the name of Cuba to certain premises in Whitechapel. Desirous of spreading civilisation and a taste for unadulterated tobacco through the north of England, they had entered into an agreement with the defendants, Messrs. Thomas and George Cope, manufac turers of British cigars. These gentlemen were to be sole agents for the sale of the company's goods in the north of England, with power to appoint sub agents, and they bound themselves, under penalties, not to sell any imitation of the company's goods, nor any foreign cigars at all save those furnished by the company. As for British cigars, sold as British, these did not come within the terms of the agreement, and Messrs. T. and G. Cope might employ native talent to any extent they pleased in the manufacture of Lopez and Cuba, provided they did not exhibit them as imports from the sunny region of the Havannah. The agreement had only been entered into last June, and with the fogs of November came unpleasant reports to the effect that the cigars furnished in the com pany's name, through the medium of Messrs. Cope, were not fit to smoke. What ! The fair fame of the " Habana Company," which, with limited liabilities, undertook to reform the taste of Great Britain, was this fair fame to be sullied with fumes emanating probably from cigars of British manufacture ? The matter must be sifted, and Mr. Silberberg, the company's manager, undertakes the investi gation. Convinced that a shop in Liverpool, ostensibly kept by one Mr. Robinson, really belonged to the Messrs. Cope, he sends to that establishment a confidential emissary, disguised as a chance customer. To this emissary the unsuspecting Robinson sells, in a box marked with the company's brand, a pound of cigars, which turn out to be as thoroughly British as William in " Black-eyed Susan." The experiment being repeated, with similar results, Mr. Silberberg goes himself to the establishment of Messrs. Cope, at Liverpool. Company's cigars are there shown to him, which are un deniably cigars of the company ; but the dealings at Robinson's shop have made a painful impression on the " Habana" memory, and an action for breach of contract is brought against Messrs. Cope. This volume of smoke puffed out by the company looks dense enough, and blackens not a little the Liverpool manufacturers. Are we to have another " thread case" with British cigars in " Habana" boxes, substituted for reels marked " 300 yards," and containing 250 ? By no means ; the smoke no sooner reaches the face of Messrs. Cope than it disperses into thin air, leaving behind it neither scent nor smirch. Messrs. Cope, as will presently be seen, had the game entirely in their own hands ; but, however, as they had been whiffed upon by the " Habana Company," they were determined not merely to disperse the threatening cloud, but also to give a puff in return. And for this purpose they employed a mouth-piece of well-known efficiency, called by the name of Edwin James. Not only did they sot imitate the " Habana cigars," but they contrived to leave a very strong impression on the minds of the jury that the " Habana cigars " were not worth imitating. As early as July they complained that the cigars, with which they were supplied in pursuance of their agreement, were heated and musty, and therefore not fit to smoke, and informed Mr. Silberberg that, unless these defects were remedied, they would lay their grievance before the directors. Away with the slightest suspicion that can affect the Messrs. Cope ! As soon would Messrs. Taylor, of Leicestershire, sell reels containing 300 yards of thread, and modestly marked " 250," as Messrs. Cope would pass off their own noble British for the specimens of heat and mustiness supplied by Mr. Silberberg. Sooner shall real gold be palmed off in lieu of pinchbeck upon the unwary purchaser ; sooner shall the lover of economical magnificence be persuaded that he has bought German silver when he has actually possessed himself of the choicest produce of Potosi. After all, smoking is clearly no such easy matter. Mr. Silberberg, buying a po and of cigars of Mr. Robinson, finds they are " unfit to smoke ;" Messrs. Cope complain that the company's article, supplied via. Silberberg, is "unfit to smoke " likewise. One is almost tempted to imagine that a cigar " fit to smoke " is a fragrant ideal never to be realised in this sublunary globe, and that all those small tempting cylinders, conical at each end, exhibited in the shop windows of tobacconists, have been manufactured for the same purposes as Peter Pindar's razors. The whole action is explained away by Mr. Edwin James into a vindictive attempt on the part of Silberberg to blacken Messrs. Cope on account of their inconvenient fastidious ness. Silberberg had wanted Messrs. Cope to resi g n their agency, but they stood to their agreement. The " unfitness to smoke," which was so unpre possessing a quality in the " Habana cigars," did not how ever constitute the defence set up by the Messrs. Cope, Than this defence nothing could be more simple ; indeed it was so very simple that we doubt whether a single reader, after perusing the facts as we have described them, has actually detected the fatally weak point in the plaintiff's cme, The cigars about which the question has arisen— namely, those vended by Mr. Robinson—may have been sold with the company's mark, or they may have been ostentatiously branded with our union-jack, to denote their British origin. They may have been more fragrant than the rose, or more repulsive than the Thames last summer, and so may the articles furnished by Mr. Silberberg to Messrs. Cope. The " Habana Company" may have been actuated by a pure love of justice and good smoking, or the action may have been trumped up through demoniac malice on the part of their agent. Neither on fraud, nor on honesty; neither on fragrance, nor on- stench; neither on easy drawing, nor on hard drawing ; neither on malice nor on magnanimity, does the case depend. Mr. Ralph Robin son, the vender of the cigars that have caused all this mighty hubbub—all this blackening and counter blackening comes into court, and states that his shop is his own, and that Mr. Cope neither has nor ever did have any interest in it. Con sequently with the cigars sold by Mr. Robinson Messrs. Cope have nought to do. These assertions of Mr. Robinson are believed by the jury, who, of course, find a verdict for the defendants. Thus a smoky case, all about smoke, and smokily conducted, ends in smoke. Unless the jury have committed a flagrant injustice, which we have no right to suspect, it is impossible to conceive anything more absurd than the rush into a court of law by the "Habana Com pany," under the circumstances described above. Mr. Sil berberg, who takes such pains to catch Robinson in the act of selling a pound of cigars in a wrong box, without ascer taining his connection with the Messrs. Cope, must, accord ing to all appearance, be the very dullest of amateur detec tives, and all the professional police who were present in court must have shuddered at the blunder.

However much purveyors of foreign cigars may ,dilate upon the superior excellence of their goods, as compared with those of English make, we strongly suspect that, in most instances, the difference is purely ideal—the delusion being kept. up by the trade as a means of obtaining undue prices for their goods. It is a positive fact, although not generally known, that nine-tenths of the cigars smoked in this country , are of English make ; an, if the manufac turers, instead of imitating, .fac sinzile, the packages of foreign houses, were boldly to acknowledge thir own goods, marking with their own names, and giving the public the advantage in price instead of pocket ing it themselves, we think the public would not be slow to appreciate their honesty, and would reward the enterprising innovator with a large trade. If, on the other hand, smokers, by shutting their eyes to facts, continue to make " fibs" profitable, then they have only themselves to blame. For their enlighten ment, we subjoin an extract from one of the principal Tobacco Broker's Circulars, dated 1858 : --- The show of cigars latterly has been so utterly miserable, that many must have been sent on blindfold. Manufacturers in the Havana must forget our duty, or they would never send on goods actually inferior, especially in make, to British goods, and expect to get more money than British can be sold for, when the buyer has afterwards 9s. 6d. duty to pay.

THOMAS BUTT AND Co., WATCH AND CLOCK MANUFACTURERS, 71, ST. JAMES'S-STREET, LIVERPOOL, AND 102, CHESTER-STREET, BIRKENHEAD. The Timekeepers, so well known for accurate performance, can only be obtained at the above Establishments. COMMENCEMENT OF THE TWENTY-FIFTH WATCH AND CLOCK CLUB. THE Public are respectfully informed that the Twenty- Fifth Watch and Clock Club is now commencing, at 71, St. James's-street. One of the most striking characteristics of the age we live in is the growing business habits developing themselves among all classes of the people. Every one who has any pre tensions to improvement—wishes to rise in society, or even to fulfil with eclat the common engagements as private individuals, must have the means of ascertaining the correct time ; hence the great demand in a commercial town like Liverpool for good clocks and watches. As one means of satisfying this demand, Tacos. Bow and Co. have instituted their Watch and Clock Clubs, by joining which persons may obtain first-rate articles at the lowest cash price, and pay for the same by easy weekly instalments, upon per fectly safe and equitable principles. The plan, summed up in a few words, is the following:—T. B. & Co. undertake to provide good patent lever watches, capped and jewelled, with maintaining power to make them go while winding up, hard enamelled dials with seconds, double-bottom cases, in every respect good and ser viceable articles, each of which is warranted for £5. Now, if each person wanting a lever watch were to put by individually 2s per week, each person would be fifty weeks, or nearly twelve months, before he or she could purchase a watch ; but, by joining together in a club, there may be sufficient to pay for one every week. We will say there are fifty members-2s from each makes a fund of £5 each week, just sufficient for a watch ; consequently a watch can be had at the lowest cash price every week during the fifty nights the 'club continues. Each night it is determined by ballot who shall have the watch. The person winning the first night gets a bondsman, has his watch, and of course his name not put in again, but goes on paying 2s each week during the fifty weeks. The econd week all the other names are put in, and some one else gets one, and so it goes on until all are supplied. It will be seen, by this method, that the person who may be so unlucky as to be the last, only pays for it before he has it, the same as he would have done had he not joined. Members may pay as much more as they like, or pay up at any time. Clocks or Jewellery can be had in the same manner, and articles o i higher value by paying the difference. Thus a £lO gold watch would be 4s per week, a £l2 108 ditto 5s per week, a £l5 ditto 6s per week, or in that proportion according to the amount. The management of the club is entirely in the hands of the members; Any farther information may be had by applying at 71, St. James's street, where a great variety of watches and clocks may be seen as specimens of work, or 102, Chester-street, Birkenhead.
