BRANDY were complete, and in active operation, upon the system

JOINERS' STRIKE.
THE JOINERS of GLASGOW have refused
to work for the last ten or eleven weeks, and have been ap-
pealing to the sympathies of the Public and their Fellow-Workmen,
by false representations, such as their Employers wishing to reduce
their wages to the unreasonable amount of 14s. per week, &c. ;
and, as misrepresentation can serve no good purpose, if men's inten-
tions are honest, the following is submitted to the Public and Work-
,men, 'both here and at a distance, as the real and unvarnished truth.
The practice has always been, in Glasgow and neighbourhood,
for the Employers to find the men in light, and the meta to work
ten hours per day, the same as in Summer, and receive the same
wages the whole year round. Those working out, laying joists,
tooting, and exposed to get wet, not being required to light, and
!eceiviqg the same wages, working from light to light, one hour
being allowed for breakfast. But in the Winter of 1836 and 1837,
the men refused to light to any master emiloying more than three
Journeymen, and demanded and obtained 18s. per week, for an
average of seven hours' work per day, thus loosing to the employer
eighteen hours per week, for which a deduction of only 2s. was
made ; or an increase on the work done in Winter over Summer of
from 20 to 30 per teat.
The Employers beg distinctly to state, that they have no Union,
neither are they held together by any Regulations whatever ; but,
of the same time, they are determined to protect themselves from
the above unreasonable demand, for which particular purpose they
met early in November last to consider what was fair and reasons-
hie betwixt them and their, men, and accordingly came to the reso-
lution of paying the men by the hoar, for any number of hours they
might choose to work, at the' Summer rate of wages, and that each
should intimate the same to his men, giving them the option to earn
20s• per week, or any proportion of the above 'amount that they
vrere inclined to work for.
The above offer is still held out to the Journeymen here, or to
good hands at a distance; and the Masters feel warranted- in
guaranteeing complete protection from annoyance to all who may
avail themselves of this offer, as well as an assurance of apreference
in all time cooling.
In conclusion, they beg to observe that the Joiners in Glasgow
and neighbourhood have been receiving higher wages thau in any
ether part of Scotland ; hence their reason for resisting their fur-
ther increase.

DIARY OF THE TIMES
OF GEORGE IV.

With Numerous Letters of
Queen Caroline, and other Royal or Distinguished Persons.
" This publication has already excited considerable interest, and
will probably be found for some time at the head of every Circu-
lating Library in the kingdom. It is a Chronicle of the fortunes
of Queen Caroline, Consort of George IV., while Princess of
Wales. The writer had indubitable opportunities to witness the
tenor of her life, and to be entrusted with the secrets of her pri-
vate sentiments. A truly feminine nicety of observation in read-
ing character, and subtlety in detecting motives, mark every page
of her Diary, and give it consistency and authority. IT is
13i£OSSIBLE TO DOUBT ITS GENERAL ♦ERACITT."—\Morning
Herald.

Henry Colburn, Publisher, 13, Great Marlborough-street.

NOW READY, beautifully printed in double columns in a single
Volume; on a new plan, (the Armorial Bearings being incor-
porated with the text) with so clear a type as to contain matter
equal to 30 ordinary volumes, price 38s. handsomely bound, and
forming the MOST COMPLETE, the MOST CONVE-
NIENT, and the CHEAPEST WORK of the kind ever offered

MR. BURKE'S
INTEW PEERAGE AND BARONETAGE,
for 1838,
CORRECTED TO THE PRESENT TIME.
" This work is the most comprehensive upon the subject that has
ever come from the press. In fact it embraces the whole spirit of
every preceeding authority—of Dugdalo, Collins, and Douglas—and
forms one complete history of the whole titled Aristocracy, with their
wide-spreading connections, from the earliest records in the public
archives, generation after generation. Independently of the History
of all the Peers and Baronets of the United Kingdom, it comprises
the Peerages claimed, and now before the House of Lords—all the
Orders of Knighthood, including those invested with equestrian
rank—the Garter's official Roll, &c.—and other important genea-
logical documents."—Sun.
