PARISH OF LAMBETH.
FARMING TUE POOR. -

On Friday a general vestry of this parish was held, for
the purpose of receiving the report of a committee, gilk.
pointed to consider the propriety of farming the poor in
their own workhouses. The subject his I), ea the source
of much controversy in the neighbourhood.
'cite Rector was in the chair.

The report, after stating the substance of the labours
of the coninnt tee, notified, that according to the evidence
of the 11;0,t eligible persons with whom they had coin-
nitinicated, the cost of farming she pour would be 45.1t1.
each per week, and that the parish could now support
them at 4s. 21i. with some trifling additions, and there-
fore recommended that farming Should not be resorted to.
Captain 'foci( moved an amendment on the motion
for adopting the rerirt, and seconded by Mr. Fall, that
the farming system should be resorted to, notwithstand-
ing the report.
Captain 'foci: complained of twelve weeks' delay in
preparing a report upon so simple a proposition; and
also, that the committee had restricted their inquiries to
three persons, after skewing au appalling list of infirm
paupers and others, who were to tie attended to, accord-
ing to ally COtilrACl.
Mr. FALL supported the amendment, and ridiculed
the idea that all proper humanity would be withdrawn
from the treatment of the poor if they were farmed out.
lie pointed out the necessity of economy in the parochial
expenditure, and the impossibility of their attaining it
well under the present system as if tile farming plan
were adopted. lie enforced the difference between a
man's managing a contract of his own and one for a pa-
rish, and thought the principle of the farming plan wiis,
at first view,conclusisC in favour of abandoning the pre-
sent mode of providing fur paupers, whvis was almost
necessarily so liable to abuse. He lamented that the
prevailing system of the country, frosts its Gove ttttt rot
downwards, was one which rather encouraged than re-
pressed abusers, and that the ciimivat was often Letter
consulted than the industrious suiiject lie admitted
that all the protection winch tne law conferred should
be secured tor the pauper, but that the industrious classes,
who supported the pauper, ought also to receive some
consideraihni, and the lest protection which could be
of them against the schemes of ft aud and idleness.
A long discuisiou ensued opott the qiiestion ; after
winch a division took place, and the nuulhers were—
Fut me aniemlinent, 62—Against it, 94—Majority for
the report, 32—wh lett number exactly currespoutled with
tiie number of the select vestry.

REMARKS.

Thus was the invulnerability of Gag put en one
side in 24 minutes and a few seconds, and now the
cognoscenti begin to find out that 14 stone must win
with 12 stone at equal fighting. Neute proved him-
self decidedly the best boxer of thu two, and he did
his business chiefly with his left hand, measuring
his distance like an able tactician. Gas could not
get at him, as Ne.ite was always ready to make
counter hits with him. Neate is the hardest hitter
our informant has seen in the ring, and the nursery
of Bristol never produced a more formidable boxer.
Gas shewed himself one of the best of game, and
is miserably punished.
The fight between Josh. Hudson and the Suffolk
Champion did nut take place. The stake was
drawn.

SETTLERS AT ALGOA BAY.

Extract of a letter to a lady in the vicinity of
Chelmsford, dated " New Essex, Graham's Town,
on the frontiers of Africa, June 24th, 1821 :—I am
seven hundred miles from the Cape of Good Hope,
and should not receive intelligence of an arrival there
for at least three weeks: but my correspondent at
' Cape Town will receive comfortable lodgings, &c.
uutil a ship sails for Algoa Bay, which is distant
from me 130 miles. Few ships from England pro-
ceed further than the Cape. Good ploughmen are
wanted, and good foot-ploughs, with spare wrought
iron shares and coulters, which are very expensive
here; ironwork nothing under ls. per lb. Ran-
some's ploughs sell for 141. each. Ploughmen will
find plenty of employers at from 21. to 31. per month,
and their board. Meat sells at 2d. per lb. ; wheat
12's. a bushel; and barley Gs. Other articles of
b«.usekeeping arc about the same price as in En-
;4land ; but, on the other hand, we arc in one of
the healthiest climates in the world, and free from
rent, tithes, and taxes of every description. Any
one may live here as well with 5001. as in his native
land with 5,0001. The farming work is all donl
with oxen, which arc very fine, and bought at 31.
each ; cows are 30s. ; and sheep GA. a-head, (hav-
ing tails that weigh 81b.—a complete lump of fat):
clothes, linen, and all English goods, very dear
Good mechanics, of any description, have very high
wages. A cargo of ladies would make a good spe-
culation in proceeding to the new settlement : for
all that come out with the settlers have gotten hus-
bands."

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 30,

We know of no more lamentable state of things
than when every individual becomes popular from
having incurred the displeasure of Government—
and when that popularity is not confined to the
lower classes, who, however respectable in their
situation, ma) sometimes err from relying more on
their feelings than on their judgment, but extends
itself to the middle and upper classes of society—
to those whose leisure has enabled them to encrease
the advantages of a liber,l education—there can be
no doubt but that the Government is wrong—that
such is the case as regards the late dismissals of Sir
Robert Baker and Sir Robert Wilson no one can
deny. We regret it, because we would have the
Government act so as to deserve the general esteem
of Englishmen—not their bitterest execrations. A
meeting has been held in Southwark (for which bo
rough Sir Robert Wilson sits in the House of Com-
mons), and a subscription has been opened: this will
be followed by similar meetings all over the coun-
try—sums great and small will be received, and we
doubt not the intended victim of ministerial ven-
geance will be more than remunerated for the loss
of his half-pay: as to the loss of his military rank,
he has been more than repaid for that already, by
the approval of every man of humanity. We repeat
our regret that any acts of Government should de-
servedly meet the censure of all but those who arc
so materially interested in supporting their measures
as to render an approval of them requisite to the
continuance of the means by which they live.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

At 3 o'clock the royal yacht came to anchor in our
roads, and in half an hour after his Majesty landed from
a pilot boat in the harbour, and was received by the
!*.layor, Prefect, Monsieur Le Marquis Jumißac, Le
Dec de Br:lncas, and Le Doc de la Chartre, who con-
ducted his Majesty to his carriage, which was waiting
Ins arrival on the qvay near the column. The way was
lined with troops from the quay to Dessitt's hotel. A
num numerous assemblage of people had met to greet
M jesty's arrival, and received him with every de-
monstration of joy ei cur cris de ,'ire le lint. His
,Majesty never appeared better, and seemed much pleases'
with the novelty of the welle, bowi,ig graciously to all
around him. On his arrival at Dessm's he found the
military and the corps du Purloins assembled, and the
hand of the regiment instantly struck up " God Save the
King." A most sumptuous dinner was prepared at the
hotel. The Prefect, the Marquis de Jumillac, the Duke
de Brancas, and the Duke de Chartres, had the honour
of dining with his Majesty. At eight o'clock he Ito-
nourerl the theatre With his pretence—" God save the
King" was sung three times by the audience, with great
cittinsiasm. His Majesty retired to his apartment at
eleven o'clock.

THE ELECTION OF LORD MAYOR.

Yesterday the election of Lord Mayor came on
pursuant to annual custom before the Corporation ;
when Aldermen Magnay and Waithman were re-
turned by a show of hands. The Alde-rmen retired,
and in a few minutes returned, declaring the elec-
tion had fallen upon AlderAnan rslaguay. No poll
was demanded by the other party.

Extract of a letter from Malta, dated Aug. 20:—
" We are happy to learn that although the Malta
memorial has not yet been allowed to take its in-
tended course, it has nevertheless been the means of
attracting the attention 3 of Government to this long
neglected part of his Majesty's dominions. It seems
that the baneful effects of the odious corn monopoly
were too striking to escape the early notice of minis-
ters at home, and the knowledge cf their having
already given Sir Thomas Maitland direction for its
abolition diffuses general satisfaction here. We sin-
cerely hope that no measures will be resorted to by
the local authority that can retard or counteract the
benefits likely to result from immediately opening
the corn trade, and that we shall not be disappointed
in the just expectation of further advantages, now
that the miserable state of this island has come under
the serious consideration of Government. We there-
fore anticipate much amendment in our neglected
and expiring commerce, and trust that we may, after
the expected changes take place, renew our advises
by every pocket, without incurring the reproaches
you have fin. the last few years made us, of subject-
ing you to useless expense of postage "

Charles Incle.lon has now finally retired from the
stage. He is at Brighton, in com'ort and
respectability, upon the fruits of what he has re-
alized, and his wife's income. The former is not a
great deal ; for Ineledou was always open-handed
and liberal; and, besides, with a degree of gene-
rosity which we think unique, he always gave up
all he had made to the children of the late marriage,
whenever he contracted a new one. He has been
mairicd three times. By his rairement is extin-
guished u hat we boldly term the finest made voice
that the history of music has upon record.
• ceeding by many degrees all others in power, splen-
dour, and extent, it was at the same time exquisitely
sweet, and possessed a peculiarity of tone which dit.
tinguished it from all others, and can never be fir-
' gotten by those who, as we did, hear it in its gle- y.

I.lvEnroot., SEPT. 27.—The body of a female
supposed to have been lost in the Earl Moira
packa, has been cast upon the shore near Work-
ington, where she was discovered by some fishermen
and taken to the nearest habitation for a coroner's
inquest. The body presented a pitiful spectacle,
the dress being all nearly torn away by the ceaseless
agitation of the ruthless element. Sufficient, how-
ever, remained to proclaim that she had been both
Noung and genteel. Her poor head was much
bruised; and her arms lost from the elbows, the
effect, perhaps, of having clung to some refuge.—
She had on the remains of a black sarsenet pelisse,
lined with satin, a coloured sarsenet gown, with an
under white body, two dimity petticoats, one flan-
nel ditto, together with stays and chemise (very
fine linen, marked H. H.-47, in a very neat hand)
ilannel waistcoat, black silk stockings, and handsome
shoes. Perhaps these particulars may meet the eyes
of her friends (who are, doubtless, deploring her
fate) and lead to her identity ; and, at. the same
time, prove a consoling assurance that she was on
the 19th of September, peacefully interred in the
church-yard Af Harrington, near Whitehaven.

DREADED,' ACCIDENT IN ST. JANES.S-STREET.—•
The workmen engaged in taking down some old houses
at the curlier of Little Ryder street, St. James's. having
imprudently removed the internal part of the finings,
without taking the prectution of securing the walls and
chimneys, thret houses fell in on Friday morning with
a most dreadful crosh, emitted a cloud of dust that almost
blinded every one who was passing at the time, and bu.
heti in the ruins about 18 persons. Immediate assistance
was obtained, a lid Illy greatest exertions made tot xtricate
the unfortunate sufferers. Seven men and a boy were
shortly dug out, two of whom were to all appearance
dead 44 the rest were dreadfully maimed, and conveyedto
St. Getwee'r• Hospital, upon shutters. Toe premises
were fornierly the White Hart pubic home, behind
which tlicre is now building an elegant mansion for Sir
Thomas Farquhar, the banker. Captain Talbot, who
Was the tinker on duty at St. James's, with the greatest
promptitude and Immanity, sent immediately a file of
men to keep off the 'd, and enable the workmen to
proceed Wl.lllO 11i nurrruptinu. We particularly observed
a Westminster scholar, with his trencher cap and gown,
successfully exerting himself in resetting the poor ma-
ntic:B (roll their perdous situation. The adjoining build-
ings arc in an equally dangerous state, and threaten to
fall every Moment. The who:e of the et ening the
labourers continued removitig the rubbish, and recovered
other persons in a lacerated state. II WaS said the houses
were sold piece-um-al, and probably the want of skill in
the persons employed in removing the lots occasioned
the accident. It etas heart-piercing, at times, to hear
the groans of those covered with the ruins, some of whom
were rescued front their perilous situation, and oloerS
perished. St. James's•street was crowded the whole of
the day, and those hardened miscreants the -pickpocke's
committed numerous robberies, regardless in the melan-
choly cause that occasioned the spectators to isseniole.--

LEEDS. JULY 17.

In ennsegoenee of an difficial intimation from Lord
Sidmoutit, the Secretary of State foe the Home I)epart-
;tient, Earl Fitzwilliatn, the Lord Lieutenant of this
Riding, left Wilton-abbey in die early part of the present
week, and is arrived at his seat in YM.kshire. A report
to this effect prevailed some weeks ago, which was at
thin tittle premature. The political meetings lately hrbl
in this and other nianufacturing diatracts, to which the
Prince Regent allu,"es in his speech front the Throne,
oit the protogation of ,Parliament, is the reason asaigned
.for his Lordship's present visit to his !lumen:lacy.
On Monday evening some radical Reformers men at
the .Elapham atoltCastle. Wakefield. foe the professed
objects mentioned in nor last. :file number of those
asseenlileti was contemptible, to sly nothing of their cha-
racter and situation in Petre appeared amon-gst
them, but a triident , disagreement of opinion taking
place between hint and some whets of these Reformers,
the meeting bred:cup after a warm allercatiott, without
st.tilitta any of.tt.e objects for which it had been called.
A vale of retosatre was passed upon set er..l persons, as

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

A farmer named Newman, who resides at Isle-
worth, was indicted fur having assaulted a tailor,
named Vaughan.

The tailoi: stated, that he haul purchased two pigs
of the defendant, whom he considered an old friend,
and one who would not deceive him. But the pigs
were 'namely arrived before they began to pine, and
one of them spewed symptoms of consumption
he tailor did not like to put the poor animal to
death, as she was not in good health, not because it
would be a greater sin to kill a sound pig than a sick?
one, but.beeause there was a dillerenee in the taste.
Ile went to the defendant and expostulated with
him, but was received with great roughness, and
alter having expressed his indignation, received from
him two dunces in the jaws, " which, upon my life,"
said the prosecutor, " prevented me from chewing
my Winks."

The Counsel, for the prosecution, offered, upon
the part of his client, to withdraw a Juror, in order
to put au end to the case, upon the understanding
that the 'defendant should pay the expences up to
the moment.

The defendant's Counsel recommended this pro-
ceeding, as did the Chairman; but the defendant
declared that ho would go on with the business.
The Juiy brought in a verdict of Guilly; to the
great disappointment df the farmer, who was lined
101. and bonn•l over to keep the peace.
A man, his wife, and his sister-in-law, were
i:►dicted lor having assaulted an intercating young
woman, the wife of a tradesman.

It appeared from the evidence that the male
prisoner had attempted to take improper liberties
with the prosecutrix. and that she not only resisted,
but told the wile of this unwelcome lover that he
wished to be naughty. The wife so far from being
jealous, declared that it was all a lie, for she bud
the best of all reasons fir kno.ving that he was a•
cintstant as any man alive. 1-I,:r passion was not to
be appeas..d. She dragged the preseeutrix into the
presence of the accused husband,.and after having
abused her with a most finials tongue, begun to
lay Upon aer must he wily with fists In this lutiour
she was :.s tited by her sister in law. The prosecu-

C.0051S IMPORTED INTO IRELAND.

Mr VE'F.Y FITZGERALD called the attention of the
Chancellor of the Exchequer to a subject which, he said,
caused great anxiety, particularly in Ireland ; namely, the
repeal of certain duties established by the Act of Union
upon goods of British produce imported into Ireland. The
tittiAl ion of that country WAS such, that it WAS important to
ascertain whether those dunes were to be continued. Al-
ready the Right Hon Ge.itleman had made hurt acquainted
with the views he at preseut entertained upon thel.ibject It
would be extremely desirable mat the public should be made
acquainted w th -itch intention

CH.VNCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said. he was
aware rd the importance of the mtbject wnich was now u ou..f
the SeriousconsaderAtion or the freaaury. He was convolve
that whatever might be the result of the enquiry the coirti

DEC 6

Mr. V. FITZGERALD said, be had another question is
pet to his Right Hon. Friend. When Parliament was about
to separate at the close of last Session, some regulations with
regard to the distilleries of Ireland were spoken si The
state of suspense in which men in th it country posiesfid
capital were kept in consequence of the delay, had it was
apprehended, occasioned considerablc defalcation is the re-
venue. (heat numbers were lacvented from embarking by
their ignorance of the intention of Government.
We understood the CHANCELLOR of the Excite-
qu ER, who spoke in a very low tone, to say that the ques-
tion should co ne before tire Hottse as quickly as possible.
Mr PARNLLL wisi.ted to know wheilta the article of
Union by which those dotteas were imposed would nu be vio-
lated by the continuance of them.
he CHANCELLOR of tit,: EXCHEQUER said, the
ditties could certainly be continued aster the ei 'station of
the act. Parliament btad then the power to teconsder the
whole.

WATS AND NICANS

The CHANCELLtiR of the EXCHEQUER moved the
House into a Committee of Ways and Means.
Mr. Mt.:Neu.: begged to he informed by the Right lion.
Gentleman, whether it was the intention of Government to
modify the Act of last Session respecting tne equalization of
Malt Duties in the Highland* of Scotland. The temptations
to illicit distillation were so numerous, that serious injury
might be apprehended to the Revenue, if the measure was
continued.

The CH ANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said,tlat several
represeutaluns upon the subject had been made to him. The
course be pursued was, to lay those representations before
the ConowisNioners of Excise, and as soon as their opinion was
made kn:iwc, the Must- should he put in pthsession of the
deii:rminution with. respect to the Bill.
The House then went into a Committee, in which the

PERSECUTION OF TILE Jiw..—tt letter from Co.
penhagen, dated Sept. I I, says—" The severe mea-
sures employed by our Government have not wholly
suppressed the signs of public hatred against the
Jews. The military were compelled on Tuesday
last to fire upon the mob, but no person was woun-
ded. Neil-1y all the windows of the houses inhabi-
ted by Awe' have been broken. One of that sect,
well known as a money-lender, in his attempt to
leave the city, was taken out of his carriage in open
day, and so cruelly attacked with stones, that he is
said to have died shortly afterwards. On the other
hand, the punishment of the persons who have been
detected in these tumults has been extremely severe.
.1 lawyer's clerk, convicted of having headed a par-
ty which emerett the house of a Jewish merchant,
and cast ail his furuiture and merchandise into the
street, has been euralemued for life to imprisonment
and hard labour—a sentence worse than death itself.

people to acts of hostility against toe Govennucot.
