attempt to restore pleas and demurrers. and that they
were geserally in favour of vies roes as against written
widows in equity wits.
After Mr. Whiteside had neweed his sat, an hes.

fers which were established seder the set. It bed ed.
however, succeeded, se the streets wire wear so full Cle
prokesional beggars as they were at present. He would
lake the caw of the Westminster workhoaaw to show that
the bill bad sot met aU the necessities of the Ines. He had
, bow informed that the poor of the district were obliged to
travel three miles to Emeingtos is order to obtain relief.
He complained of the treatment the poor received IS the
casual wards. They were given five ounces of bread at
eight, and the same quantity in the morning, together
wits as much water as they tiled to Mak. (Laughter.)
The treatemot received by vagrants was too good, bed es it
wee, while that received by the deserving poor was far too
harsh. He believed the act wee practically inefficieut. The
remedy he would propose was that of making the police re-
lieving oftiers in the various district.. He believed this
wee the only mode of dealing with the question. The num-
ber of vagrant. would be diminished, and the casual poor
would be relieved. He should propose • clause in committee
to the effect that every police statics should be constituted
en office for the imago( of orders of admiesioe for destitute
persona to the casual ward of workboirees is which such
polio. station were situated.
*Mr. KNIGHT was sorry the government had brought
forward this bill in the same shape as as it was last veer.
It was • sham and protegee, and contained no reel intuition'
