ANOTHER CENSURE ON THE

GUAR
, ,f

DIANII.—The manner in which the Manchester Board o'
Guardians and their officials discharge their duties to the
poor has on several recent occadons been visited with
strong condemnation on the part of coroner's juries in that
city. An instance occurred on Wednesday, when an inquest
wee held by Mr. Herford, the coroner for the city, on the
body of a child, two years of age, named Edwin Smallwood.
The child had scalded itself to death by upsetting a cup of
tea over himself on Saturday, and the jury found that the
occurrence was accidental. During the evidence it tran-
spired that the family had nothing to eat until noon on
&tardily, the father, who is an umbrella-maker, having
been rendered unable to work for fifteen mouths past, by a
paralytic stroke. The wife had supported them as well as
she could, and had received 41. per week from the guardians
until eight weeks ago, but this was withdrawn because the
parents refused to go into the workhouse. The jury, sym-
pathising with the case, subscribed ISs. for the assistance of
the family, which is a large one, and added to their verdict
their unanimous opinion that the conduct of the relieving
officer, or guardians, in stopping the allowance to the
family, under the circumstances, was very censurable.
THE NEW SMIThFIELD MARKET.— Considerable
progress is made in the construction of the New Smithfield
Market, Copenhaaciv fields. The wall on either side, north,
south, east, and west, about eight feet in height, is com-
pleted—a space being left for the gate, in Maiden-lans and
Caledonian-road. The sewers also, which lead into the
great sewer in Caledonian-road, are nearly finished. Some
hundreds of men are at work in levelling the site, on which
will be placed a layer of a composite material, about 18
inches in depth, which will be sufficiently porous to allow
water to pass through it, so that the extensive area of the
market shall he always dry. Adjoining the market in
Maiden-lane, Copenhagen House again appears, but it hao
a more modern appearance then the original structure.
Maiden-lane has also been considerably widened. Whether
the market will be opened on the great cattle market day at
Christmas, mneh depends on the state of the weather, which
seriously impedes operations.
NORFOLK EATUARY.—The opening of the inner
channel of this important work, leading to the 'larboard
Lynn, took place on Monday, and proved of much service
to the vessels which availed themselves of the passage.
