I.I)NDON,
WEDNESDAY, MAY 46, 1819.

Au important Bill was brought into the House of
Lords last night by E irl Gam, sod read a first
time. It has for its object to repeal the isth and
30th Acts of CHARLES IL, which require all pvl'-
110u8. previous to admittance into office to take and
subscribe certain declarations against the doctrine
of transubstantiation, and the invocation of saints.
No objection, we trust, will be snide to a measure
like this, which is nothiog more than ate of conci-
liation, which seeks to peeve:it a continuance of an
unnecessaey insult to the nuderstimiling and feel-
ings of a loge class of our Mallow-subjects, without
affecting, in the remotest degree, ttru provisions

FE ill LL REFORMERS.

At the late Meeting of Reformers, at Blackburn, the Com-
mittee of the Blackburn Female Reform Society appeared at
the entrance to the ground, and were desirous of approach-
ing the hustings; they were very neatly dressed for the occa-
sion, slid each wore a green favour io her bonnet or cap. No
sooner did the Chairman perceive the anxiety of the Ladies
to make their way through the immense crowds, than he sig.
nified his wish that a road might he opened for the accom.
modation of the Committee of the Female Reform Society ;
which request was instantly complied with. The Ladies
ascended the hostMgs amidst the reite►ated acclamations of
the people, which continued for several minutes before si-
knee could be restored. The Ladies then stepping forward
towards the Chairman, one of them presented him with a
Cap of Liberty, made of scarlet silk or satin, lined with
green, with a serpentitied gold lace, terminating with a rich
gold tassel.
A Wriest of approbation spontaneously burst from the
people. " Liberty or Death!" was vociferated from every
moot b.

The presentation of the Cap of Liberty was accompanied
with • short speech, delivered by Mrs. ALICE KITCHEN.
The bawler was then lowered, crowned by the Cap of
Liberty, sod rehoisted amidst the continued shouts and
bums of the Meeting.
Silence being again restored, the Castleman observed,
that be held iu his hand the Address of the Female Re.
formers, which, with their permission, lie was desired to read.
—(" Read, read, read—the Women
.for ever.")
The letter was read, and in it the women composing the
Society " pledged thentselves to instil into the minds of
their children a hatred of (visot they pleased to call) civil
and religions tyranny!"
The most zealous partisans at this meeting were those from
Padiham and Buruley ; they were armed with large blud-
geons ; and a true Revolutionist from the former solace said
to thuse around bin, that at his town the people got up by
three o'clock in a rooming, to learn their exercise. The bulk
of those rain mhleel seemed heartily tired of the proceedings
before they were tcrinionied; sod should another meeting he
allotted fur the town of Mae klitirn, it is highly prolialde that
very few would be tempted to attend it. A ene.ting was
an ~,,,, aced to In. held al Ruch.lsle on that Monday fort,iight,
and that another would be appointed at Manchester iu a few
weeks.

FIRE IN BOLT-COURT.

!)cnis 31uhurNey wa; itidite:llor stealing five
RIMI.III liare-akins, the property of George Smith.
-- Julies, asuistant in the shop of a furrier in
the Strand, stated, that on the day of the lute tire,
rear Fleet-street, the Prisoner mild another man
oi•ine into the *hop, and offered the ►kin. fur sale.
&nig questioned oliere they had obtained them,
ili-3 ►a.o from Graveaend. When questioned more
cl..r.irly they threw duwu the Ana, and ►an off;

they were pursued, the Prisoner was taken, the
other escaped.
Mr. Smith was a furriers and lived in Gooch-
square; there was a lire near his premises the 26th
June; • large quantity of Russians hare-skins was
removed with all his other property, during the fire,
into the square ; they were in a cask. which, after
the ceasing of the fire, he discovered to have been
opened, but he did not miss any part of its contents.
There were more skins, however, in a hag. and
another cask, awl he was quite unable to say whe-
ther any skins were missing or not.
The JUDGC told the witness it was very extraor-
dinary he should say so, as he had affirmed before
the Magistrate that he did miss some skins.
Witness ►eplied, lie hail not mimed any skins,
and could not swear that thoae the Prisoner had
offered for sale were his property.
Verdict—Not Guilty.

taken. Verdict—Guilty.

STATE OF THE COUNTRY.

In coesesperree of the refusal of the Mayor to
comply with the requisition of the Reformers, they
have,by an advertisement in our publication of
this day, appointed a meeting 'to he holden on
Monday, the 19th instant. The place of meeting is
not mentioned; bet we understand that it is intended
to apply for the use of the Mixed Cloth Hall-yard
ou this occasion.—( Leeds Mercury of Satarday.)
It appears from a printed requisition with seven
signatures, viz. George Watson, William Ilosidley.
Edward Birkhil I, George Rodgerson. Samuel Ather-
ton, James Barber, and Joseph Norton, that a Re.
form Meeting is to be held on Monday evening
next, at Mayday-green. Barnsley. Probably Mr.
Petre, who is now an unwelcome visitor at Dews-
bury, is to be the manager of this Meeting.
—(lbid.)
Numerous combinations of workmen have lately
been formed in the neighbouring manufacturing
districts, fur the purpose of raising wages; laid va-
rious meetings, both public and private, have been
held, to carry this purpose into effect. About a
fortnight ago, the workmen in the township of
Southill struck for a rise; their example was soon
followed by the Dewsbury work-people: and •ll
the mills are now standing except those at which
the advanced prices have been agreed to.—(Mid.)

A Committee has been sppointed. by the Guar.
distils of the Poor in Leeds, to inquire into the
causes of the present increase of pauperism—and
to report. whether the existing distress ari,er from
causes of a teniporary or permanent nature ; in the
latter of which cases. they are charged to point out
such sources of productive employment as are cal-
culsted to tnitiqute or remove the evil. lii pursu-
ance of this object, the Committee assembled on
Thursday evening, and determined, as a preliminary
step, to open ■ correspondence with Sir John Sin-
clair. Mr. Cameo, and Mr. Owen.

Last week a party of the cavalry stationed here
was marched in all haste to Cockermouth, and con-
jecture was active to discover the reason. IVe have
since learned, that the good people of Cockermouth
were as much surprised at their arrival as those of
Carlisle at their departure ; but it appeared, upon
inquiry, that a fracas had taken place among a few
old women and children, on the previous day ; that
one of the former, having beaten her husband, had
excited the indignation of her neighbours, and was
attacked by them with a few missiles. This ridi-
culous incident had been, however, by a piece of
legerdemain, construed into a dangerous riot.—

The VICE.CHANCELLOII-:" Thtll is a Bill filed
by two gentlemen, the new trustees of Westmiiister
Lving-in Hospital, against the Defendants, who are
the old trawlers, residing in Etigisnil, praying that
they might be decreed to transfer certain stock in
the Batik of England, belonging to the Charity, te
the Plaintiffs. On the heuriog of this cause, I
-thought I might order the transfer according to the
Act of toe 36th of the King; but on looking into
the Act, I hod I cannot. I thor/Ist I could have
done it this way—to direct the Bank of England to
transfer the stock to the Accountant-General, rod
for him to hand it over to the new trustees; but the
Act will not allow it. As to the Act of the 39th of
the Kjug, which Mr. Martin thought provided for
the difficulty, it does not bear on the question.
The charity stock dots not stand its the names of
the parties to this suit, therefore I cannot decree
that the Defendants should 'nuke the transfer, and
the Governor and Directors of the Bank of Eng.
land are not before the Court. Let this stand over
fur the purpose of making them parties."

DISTRESS IN THE UNITED STATES.

" It is estimated that tly!re are 20,000 persons daily seek.

able-bodied men are said to be wandering She streets

sire something to do. Ike amount cannot be km than 20,000.
" In Baltimore I here may be about 10,000 persons is
unsteady employment, or actually shirt-ring because they
cannot get into business. We know several decoct me m,
lately S good livers,' who now subsist on such victuals as
two years ago they would not have girds to their mimings

of the name of James Bennett, but someallereation having
taken place noised a separation ; she came •different times
to his lodgings entreating of him so give her admittance,
stating, that she had no way of support nor place of resi-
dence; he would not hearken to her entreaties, but always
bid her go off—she at length despairiog of his doing any
thing for her, told him that she would come and hang herself
