A VISIT OF THE UNEVPLOYED TO THE
CLERSENWELL POLICE COURT.

On Monday afternoon an immense multitude of persons.
consisting of mechanics, labourers, and others, assembled
in the front of this establishment to seek the advice and
assistance of Mr. Corrie, itr consequence of having bean
refused relief by the parish authorities of Islington:
The complaining parties, it appeared, had formed part of
a large meeting yesterday in Smithfield of unemployed
artisans. &c., after which they proceeded in strong tiodierk
to the parishes of Clerkenwell and Islington to seek Tillie'',
where their formidable numbers caused some alarm and
sensation, and Mr. Martin, superintendent of the G division,
had previously communicated that such a visit might bt;
anticipated at the court, and that officer was in attendance_
George Bent, a man of respectable appearance, said he,
with a Mr. Kendall, was there, in the absence of Mr,
Macheath, to represent the aggrieved unemp'oyed, but Bent
resided in George street, Bagnigge Wells road, St. Pancras,.
Mr. Corrie directed that those who wished to complain
should be admitted into the court, when a rush was made,
and it was instantly crowded to excess by an anxious, motley
group. B -nt said they had applied to Islington parish, and
were refused relief, but some were relieved at Clerkenwell.
They applied to his worship for advice to get relief and
assistance in a legal and peaceable way. Mr. Kendall, a
decorative painter, said he was employed four or five days a
week. He had a wife and throe children, who were starv-
ing. They applied, with others, to Islington parish,
and were told that they e)iild not be relieved
except from nine to twelve o'clock in the forenoon.
Henry Pierce, a joiner, of 12, Caledonia strut, Islington,
said he was not in actual distress, but he did no' know how
soon he might be: nine as the representative of those
who were " unemploy: d," brcause if such things coutinur.d
they would lead to a revolution in the country, Hoary
Hunt, a painter and glazier, of Rosamond street, North,
said he was out of work, with a wife and three el-;ldren,
He had not a morsel of food at home, nor money to procure
it, or he would not apply there, or to the parish, Ile ap-
plied to the parish of Islington, and was refused relief, and
if something is not done, I don't know what will become
of us." Mr. Combe : Yours is a case that T can prdctically
deal with. Are there any other cases here ? A voice:
Yes, sir; 600 here, and as many more outside the court.
Other statements of an equally painful and distress-
tog nature were made. Mr. Corrie ore3red an officer
