ILLEGAL REMOVAL OF IRISH PAIIPERS.—At the
Todmorden petty sessions, en Thursday, Mr. Roberts, clerk
to the Rochdale board of guardians, preferred a charge
against Thomas Uttley, relieving officer of the township of
Heptonstall, of having, on the 21st of August last, sent from
liebdenbridge to Rochdale two Irish paupers, Jane Jettison,
and her son, Peter Johnson (an idiot, and unable to walk),
contrary to the provisions of an act recently passed. Mr.
Roberta stated the eve at considerable length, and called
several witnesses, who proved that the defendant brought
the paupers in a cart to the Hebdenbridge Railway Station,
and paid their fare to Rochdale, giviag a strict charge
to the railway guard to set down the parties at the
Rochdale station, without fail. The parties, on arriving
there, were delivered to the care of the clerk at the station,
who found them in such a diseased and helpleu condition,
that it was deemed necessary to remove them to the work-
house, and in two days afterwards they were removed to the
fever ward, where they remained for a month.—Mr. Roberts
insisted on the full penalty (M.) being enforced, and inti-
mated that he had also a similar charge, on account of the
removal of the boy. Uttley was convicted in the penalty of
21. 10s. and 41. 3e. costa, amounting in all to 61. 13s.—
Another case of illegal removal of paupers was else brought
before the court. Mr. J. Stanalleld, clerk to the Tod-
morden union, summoned Mr. Leithly, relieving officer of
Holbeck, Leeds, for having removed one Mary Ann Lanai.,
a pauper, residing at Leeds with her husband, a railway
labourer, who, is consequence of severe distress, applied to
the Ileibeck select vestry for relief, and received 3a. It &o-
peered in evidence that, on a second application for relief,
they gave her 84. for the railway fare for herself and her
' husband to be conveyed to the township of Brringn, in
the Todmorden ',mien. This occurred about the 23d of Oct.
last. In consequence of Leithly danyieg the facts the case
was ultimately adjourned; and the books of the Holbeck
union ordered to be brought to the next sessions.
A SHAM CANDIDATE FOR THE COUNTT.—On Fri-
day an electioneering hoax was perpetrated in the ship* of
placards posted on the walla of Manchester, addressed " to
the electors of the southern division," d. 4., purporting to be
signed, " Anthony St. John Bagshaire ;" to be dated
" Itivington-park, 26th November ;" and to be printed by
"J. Dobinioti and Co., Palace-square, Pruden." Of course
there is no such man as this Bagahawe, no Ri
in the county, and no printer in Preston namedl=
The whole thing was too clumsy to deceive, and too dill to
be laughed at.
