REPRDIENTATION OF FIN sHr RT. Sir Morton
Peto has announced that, in consequence of his finding that
the task of representing the borough of Finsbury in parlia-
ment is more than his health and strength are equ►l to, be
his determined, at the close of the present parliament, not
to present himself for re-election. He has arrived at this
determination with great reluctance and regret, his relations
with the borough h►ving been from the first so perfectly
cordial and satisfactory. " I have one reason," he says,
"and one only, for resigning Finsbury. The duties con-
nected with the representation of a metropolitan borough
,are not only of an extremely onerous, but of a very
pressing and responsible kind. Hardly a measure
comes before parliament which does not affect some section
of the electors. This naturally leads to a very extended
correspondence, and I find this, in addition to my own
affairs, ruore than I can continue to perform with satisfac-
tion to myaelf and that due regard to my health which my
duty to my family requires. If I again re-enter parliament
it must be to represent some constituency where attention
only to national questions is required at my hand, and
where I should be comparatively free for political work."
SOCIETY FOR THE ENCOVR AG EMENT OF THE FINE
Aug.—last evening Mr. T. Brodribb, 8.A., delivered an
interesting lecture "On the Poetry in England before
Chaucer." Reviewing the poetic remains of the Anglo-
:bran and Anglo• Norman periods, the fiesta Roman”non,
the metrical chronicles, the Lays, the Fabliaux, and the
early English songs, he traced the influences which rue-
ceesively arose, being the reflex of the spirits of each par.
bailer age, which had given to English poetry its present
shape The lecturer was listened to with great attention
by a numerous auditory, and warmly applauded at the
termination of his discourse. _

WORKING MEN'S CLUB AT BILsTON. —A meeting
for the eneeideratioo of the formation of a working men's
club at Basten was held in the theatre there last night,
the chair being occupied by the !tight line. C. P. Villiers,
secretary to the Poor-law board and M.P. for Wolver-
hamptoo. There were also present Mr. T. M. Wept'lie,
M.P. for Wolverhampton ; Mr. W. li. Foley, one of the
parliamentary representatives of South Staffordshire ; Cap-
tain Tboroetcraft, high sheriff of the county, lizz. The
Roy. H. Solly, Secretary to the Working Mee's
Club and Institute Union, attended to explain the
object of working men's clubs. After a few speeches the
High Sheriff said that he thought that though they could
not have velvet-covered sofas and chain in their club, he
thought they ought to have a comfortable sofa or two and
comfortable chairs, and he should give them a 101. note
towards buying them. He should give them a boat-load of
coals to make their first fires with. Mr. Villiers
cioestatulated Billiton on the result of the 'meeting,
which had given him much useful and valuable
information ia relation to the working clause. He en-
dorsed all that had bean said in reference to the necessity
for means of social intercourse among the people ; and he
looked for all the benefits to auras from Working Men'.
Clubs, which bad been looked for that evening ; for the
people were constantly pr.:greasing, and each union of par-
liainest saw the passing of some act for their benefit. They
would find no difficulty in establishing the club; and be
should follow the example of the high sheriff and subscribe
10/. towards the preliminary expenses. (Loud chews.)
