FOR WORKING MEN.—The

Society for Improving the Condition of the Working Classes
have fitted up • new lodging house for single men at No. 2.
Charles-street, Drury-lane. The arrangements which we had
an opportunity of inspecting on Saturday, are excellent ;
every accommodation being provided for nbouteighty persons
at a cost of only fourpence per night. This Sum includes the
use of a bath, washhouse, and cooking utensils. The house
is in admirable order ss regards cleanliness, &c., and appears
to be well ventilated. We belles* it is the intention of the
society to extend their operations to various parts of the
country, by the neatation dandier establishments; the ex•
periments which have ban leas la the mairepelis leaving
no doubt as to their nosealmes, and Weal high importance
to the class whisk they are demand to amemmodate.
TellEit a Coss4Aws.--The provinces of the Danube
have now yielded to Thrace and to Yesegoa the furnishing
'of the capital with men. This impernat trade has been
ruined, hie everything else, by the barbers* measures of a
stupid ministry. In reserving to itself the supplying of the
capital, the government does not allow the exportation of
corn withoutspecial perminion. Without doubt, the liberty
of this trade would have given a new impulse to agriculture,
and would have restored prosperity to several provinces ; but
that would not have been for the interest of those persoasges
who bad the power of giving permits, and who consequently
made a traffic of the firmans. In 1828, a circumstance oc-
curred which ought to have enlightened the government on
this point. The RIMIAIIII had intercepted all communication
with the capital, and in consequence • want of provisions
occurred; for the ill-furnished public magazines afforded
such damaged wheat only, that it could with great difficulty
be baked into bad and unhealthy bread. To remedy this
evil, an employi ventured to suggest that any one who could
procure corn should be permitted to supply the capital. The
aituatim of affairs was critical, kr the people were beginning
to murmur • and the smells' was carried into effect. No
goofier was'the pormirieaseewded, than a multitude of
farmers and avian banmed to pour grain into the
market, and pigsty toes reappeared. This was an excellent
lesson to the government, but how did it profit thereby >
First of all it reinstated the monopoly, and four years after-
wards, in 1832, happening to require • million measures for
its
.magazines, in order to make more sure of speedily pro-
curing that quantity, it forbade the exportation of corn, in-
eunuch that to collect the required million of meinures, it
destroyed, in all probability, a hundred millions, and ruined
about ten thousand cultivators. This barbarous system
partly ended in 1838, but it will be long before its withering
effects are eirseed.—Blackrooox's ilayrizose.
LORD COCHRANE'S RESTORATION.—In the evening
of his days, the Beal of Dundonald, most famous as " Lo
Cochrane," seas the Gazette record the final retractation of
the charge home* mad* against him, and followed by
penalties cruelly eslaeed. His naval rank was given back
to him by King Willis. the Fear* : Queen Victoria now
restores him to his rash in chivehy, by readmission to the
Order of the Bath. The old eandemasden is annulled and
cancelled. When Lord COCALTIMI was andeinned, on evi-

thought fit to break the slumbers of the constituency.
No doubt they await further orders from head-querten. Sir
W. R. Clayton solicits the support of the GREAT MASLOW
constituency—a gentleman of whig opinions, who, it will be
remembered, represented them for a number of years, and
was unseated upon a petition at the last general election.
He, too, keeps the electors in the dark, telling them, in
language which can be made to mean anything, that "al-
though legislative protection to agriculture is withdrawn, he
hes always been firmly attached to that branch of our
nationalgreatness." No addresses have yet appeared from
the representatives of Marlow. Ilion Wvconza is to be
