Hiett, aasistant-overeeer of the parish of Williton, was
brought up at Taunton. on Wednesday, charged with
"purloining, wasting, and misapplying £1.20, the pro-

appeared for the prosecution ; Mr. Cloak defended.
Cook objected to the jurisdiction of the magistrates,
the prisoner having been tried at the lard Epiphany
sessioo for 'Alban/um the very sum be was sow charged
with "purloining, wertintlend wieapplying," and Irss
acquitted of that abuse • jury. The Bente, how-
ever, overruled the objection. The pridioner was an
active partisan of one of the candidates for 0210 repre-
sentation of Taunton at the last election, and on being
applied to by the overseers to make up his accounts he
stated that be could not do so, as he had spent £134
belonging to the parish for eleatiosseeringporpo.e. and
betting on the result of the election. He lesploved the
overseers to deal leniently with him for the sake of big
wife. The Bench fined the prisoner MO, being treble
the amount purloined, and £3 penalty; but upon bin
declaring that he had no good. ea which to levy, he was
ordered to be imprisoned tor two months, withal* hard

in parliment, and the obligations and usages connected
with it, tend to draw the bishop from diocesan duties,
which are sufficient to take up the whole of his time;
that his temporal dignity tends to make him difficult of

BWANAGE.

Mowtni littrirtrra.—A tea and concert was given
at the above place, on the 19th inst., to celebrate its
anniversary. Trays were furnished by Mrs. Charrington,
Mrs. Delamotte, Mrs. Arbon, Mine Burt, MI.. Emma
Bart, Mile Annie Burt, Mrs. Mowlem, and others.
Each table looked (mite picturesque, and was supplied
with many delicacies. The ticket-holders began to
assemble at 5 p.m., the hour for commenting being
six, at which time every available seat was filled.
Grace having been said by the Rev. It. D. Travers, tea
began, and piles of cake vanished before keen appetites.
This part of the proceedings was a great snoop's, and
much hilarity prevailed during the whole time. Many
now availed themselves of pass tickets, while the room
was placed in order for the concert. On re-assembling.
a 'spits' programme of songs, &lett', sleek he., was
performed. We believe this was the most successful
concert that has ever been given at the Molders'
Institute, and we feel sure that all present were
very grateful to those who so kiodly gave their
assistance. Mrs. Arbon's singing was much admired,
and we trait this lady will again favour us on a similar
occasion. Mrs. Pope's "Oft in the stilly night" was
quite enchanting. The quadrille* "Prince Alfred"
were most perfectly played by Mrs. Arbon and Miss
Emma Bart. The comic souse provoked storms of
applause. Mr. Mowlem's "Ten Little Nigger." was
re-demanded three times. Mr. Clilman's songs met
with the most clamorous moons. "Little Floe," sung
by Miss A. Haysom, was encored, end she was greatly
cheered on leaving the platform. The clam was
led by Mr. Hillier to whom much credit is
due for making their singing so perfect. FL W.
Charrington, Eaq. Hon. Be* of the Mowlem
Institute, retires this year, and it is supposed the under
secretary will be asked to accept the office. The present
prosperous state of the affairs of the institute la mainly
due to the exertions of Mr. Charrington, and we cannot
loge such a worthy secretary without mush regret.

At Mirk-Lane and throughout the country there hoe
been a great effort on the part of buyers to lower the
price of all kinds of grain and pulse. In regard to
wheat this design has succeeded to the extent of la

taken Once. Barley, oats, beans, and peas, have, how.
ever, been sold or bold for the previous high grices
which they (itched. The trade in fat stock and meet
remains in the unvarying state which bee prevailed for
some corks. Beef still ranges between 3.1 44 and 56 6I

ever before existed for several consecutive weekv.
' Mutton is again quoted at the same pion as beef, viz.,

continue to be sent to market. Ilenee the above
anomaly in prices, the stalled being sane, and the
half-bone half-incat sorts cheap, because the present
straightened cireumstaaose of the humbler classes
decreases the demand. Nothing could more forcibly
show the intimate relation which exists between manu-
factures and agriculture. The agricultural seed trade
Is in • Mate of great animation, in consequence of the
short supplies at command to meet the ordinary spring
calls. France has usually sent us a considerable supply
of clover seeds, but this sauna nearly all that which
comes from French porta is said to be of German
growth, and its; quality to be of •n inferior character.

CANADIAN EMIGRATION.

To the Ediior.

Sir,—By the laat mail I am informed that the Govern-
ment of Ontario has, determined to make • free grant
of 200 acres to every boa Ms settler.
Thu will be an immense boon to the working 'lames
of Great Britain, about to emigre* to Canada-
To such I would say—Club together— Pay in some-
thing weekly—Get other help as much no mesible—As
soon as LI (if by steamer £7) is raised, bake a thorough
ticket soon after the beginning of April from London
Liverpool, Glamow, or Cork to Toronto, Hamilton,
London, or any place West of Kingston.
Get employment, which is easy enough, at 16s. and
upwards per week, and all found—Save--alter, ray 12
months, go to the Hon Hr. EICHAID3at 1.01.012111, and
Maim the 2110 acres.

After 5 years you will get on comfortably, and by
industry, care, and preservance, a good provision for
old age. . . .

Ab:tain altogether, if possible, but especially from
the whiskey—and job u yourself, on landing, to mine
Church or Chapel..
. .

I feel, through the liberality of the Ontario and other
Governments, Canada will be test place for the poor
man to emigrate to.
We have in St. Paul's, Clerkenvell, London, carried
on, with peat encases. a Society based a the sound
principle. of "Self-help and Mutual help." There are
already Vet members, representing nearly WOU persons.
Should any friends be inclined to help theme poor bet
deserving families to emigrate to Calllifk I slug be
most thankful fur any essistanee.
Hoping these observations may he profitable to
intending emigrant.,
I remain, Sir,
Your obedient Servant.
