that they discontinue to grant relief to poor belonging to any
township within the union who are not residing in the union;
and have direc;ed their relieving officers not to visit or re-
lieve any poor who do not reside in their own respective dis-
tricts. They have also resolved to discontinue is future to
giant out-door relief to all non-settled poor who may be
legally removed to their respective places of settlement ; and
to discontinue to relieve any poor for or on account of any
other union, residing within the Manchester or Salford union,
as the case may be. These resolutions, which are adopted as
in accordance with the best legal construction of the new law
of settlement, it is probable will involve in the two
unions the removal of some 300 to 400 paupers,—some
from Manchester to Salford, others from Salford to Man-
chester, and so on with respect to almost all the townships
in the two unions. The directions to the relieving officers
will also greatly facilitate the discharge of their onerous
duties. A relieving officer of Manchester, for instance, will
no longer have to visit and relieve a pauper living iu Pen-
dleton. If the poor person has gained a five years' settle-
ment there, he must in future be relieved by the Salford
howl; if not, he will be removed into the Manchester
union, and relieved there. The Chorlton board of guardians
have taken another view of the new law. At their last
meetinff a copy of the resolution of the Manchester guardians
was laid before them, and excited considerable interest. It
was unanimously resolved—
That this loved cannot but exprewo regret at the girsdians of the
poor of the 3l•inchentee Union having come to the sletremination
expressed in the foregoing essolutions, cirl tied it be an initruction
to the Monied officers of this union P. vi.it and relieve mi usual all
removable pauper., belonging to this onion, who may be resident In
the Mantitmtor Union; as it is considered were the offieers to act
otherwise. it would be attended with serious inconvenience and un-
necessary hardships to the recipients of relief.

FRUITS OF THE GAME-LAWS.—Last Friday a most gross ,
outrage was committed at Burderop-park, near Swindon,
the seat of J. J. Calley, Esq. At about eleven o'clock, when
,Ir. Calley was retiring to bed, be perceived from his bed-
room window the flash of a gun, and heard firing in the
plantations near his house. lie immediately called his men
servants, and, followed by them, went in search of the tres-
passers. The servants took different directions, and in one
of the plantations the gardener met two men armed with
guns, one of whom pointed a gun close at his breast, and
bade him go away." Being then alone and unarmed, the
gardener thought it prudent to follow this advice. Pre-
sently, howeser, he joined Mr. Calley, and they proceeded
in a direction where firing had been heard, and just cors,,the
outside of the park, on the turnpike road, they fell in *ith
two men with guns. Mr. Calley bad merely addressed
them, sayieg, " It's all very well now you arc on
the turnpike road, but I know where you have
been," and had not quite finished the utterance of
the last two words, when he heard a man's voice
from behind a hedge call out, " Fire at him; eh sot
him." Immediately afterwards Mr. Calley received a vio-
lent blow on his hewd, which felled him to the ground,
stunned and senseless, when they commenced kicking him
severely. The gardener, hearing come of the poachers
calling out " shoot, shoot," began to make his escape, when
two guns in succession were elisehargiel, the contents of
which severely wounded him about his loins and legs. By
this time some of the servants came tip, and the gong dis-
persed. Mr. Calle), received no serious injury, although he
was very much bruised. The police apprehended seven
men on suspicion the next day. The prisoners were taken
before the bench of magistrates at Swindon, when one was
discharged from custody, and, in cons quence of the gar-
dener being unable to attend from the serious nature of the
injuries which he had received, the other six were remanded.

named Goddard, who had just sold a drove of sheep and
gone into a public-house, was joined by some of those gentry
who attend fairs for the purpose of plundering the unwary.
The strangers wish, d Gaillard to purchase 300 sheep for
them, and represented they were net judges of such animals.
They agreed to give him a hoyen.ign a hundred for the pur-
chase. lle accepted the offer. The strangers then repre-
sented that they had a very fine cart horse to sell, which was
said to be worth 501. The fellows offered him a
trial, requiring a deposit of W. Goddard handed over 36
sovereigns, and took away the animal to try, when he
speedily discovered thatfit was, from some material defect, not
worth a quarter of the sum he had deposited. As soon as he
had mounted, however, the others themselves off, and
he was left minus his money and tlic job promised him in the
purchase of the sheep.
