POOR OF ST. (HUSS
Mr. W. WILLIAMS said, he had a Petition to
present from the labouring Irish poor of the parish
of St. Giles's. As it had been pat into his hoods'
only a few minutes before, he had hot a cursory
knowledge of its wording. He did not, however,
conceive that it contained any objectionable lan-
guage—though certainly its tenor was rather pecu-
liar. This he should instance by reciting some of
its expressious, as " one good turn deserves an-
other," " charity begins at homr."—( Leughter.l

Lion he brought up.
The motion was agreed to and the Petition read.

handled it grandee! of British money; and as " one
good tura s;-served anot her," they conceived that, if
their project was sinctiotied, many of the destitute
English and Scotch would find • subsistence in
Ireland. They proceeded to state, that they were
now wholly excluded from work in this country.
and that a preference was almo►t universally given
to English and Scotch labourers. With that, how-
ever, they did not find fruit. as " charity begins
at home." They trusted the House would consider •
the situation in which they were placed, and devise
some mode of alfordiog them employment, which
would be the best method of defeating the destglis
of the Radical Reformers, about which a great
deal of noise had been made in their parish.
The Petition was ordered to lie on the table.
