THE LAW OF PA EoCH lAL SETTLEMENT.—Mr,
Cm Lett, poor-law inspector of the dietnct, recently ad-
dressed a circular letter to the different boards of guardians
in th. West Riding, requiring the opinion of each, for the
information of the President of the Poor-law Board, oo the
following proposition:—•• Whether the guardians of your
union would view favourably a measure for abolishing the
exiat:ng law of parochial settlement, and constituting the
!several parishes of the union as one perish, for the purpose
of rating and settlemeot ; or, whether they would prefer
that the power of removal should he wholly abolished, and
the entire cost of relief of all destitute persons within the
union thrown upon the common fund." This comrsunica-
tion was regarded es significant of legislation on the subject,
nod prior to the various boards considering it a meeting of
chairmen, vice.ch►irmen, and clerks of unions was held at
Bradford to ventilate the question. The various guardians
there present, with one exception, expressed themselves in
favour of the abolition of the poser of removal and the
adoption of union rating and union settlement in prefereoos
to national settlement. The exception was in the case of
Leeds, the representatives from that union being in favour of
national settlement. The various boards of guardians thus
represented, with this exception, have since formally con-
firmed the view of the Bradford meeting.

tory of Mr. Kidd', situate on the banks of the Lea, at Old
