DISTRESS IN PAISLEY.
TO 7'HE EDITOR OF' THE SUN.

with this you will receive a state.
ment of the number of persons depending on
public charity for existence in the town of Pais-
ley, and other places in the Upper Ward of
Renfrewshire, amounting to 10,670.
The allowance given by the Local Relief
Committees averages in amount from lid.
to lid. per day, for each individual, and in
provisions only. Many families, notwith-
standing the inclemency of the season, are
without fire frequently for two days at a
time. Hundreds, if not thousands, have sold or
pawned every article of their bed or body clothes,
except what they appear with on the street, to
keep themselves in life; and such is the desire
of a greater portion of the population to main-
tain themselves independently by their own ex-
ertions, that many have to be offered relief by
their neighbours; and some have been found on
the point of death from want, who declined to
apply for public aid.

In:reference to some statements which have
appeared in the public papers regarding the un-
willingness of the weavers in this neighbourhood
to accept work at a low rate, it may be proper to
state that a Committee has commenced this
week to give out webs in the way of relief, at
which an expert workman will not earn more
than five shillings per week. From this they
have to deduct rent, light, and other expenses—
yet yesterday and to-day the demand for these
webs has been so great, that crowds of people
have been in waiting, eager to obtain them.

A HARD LOT.—On Saturday night last, a
poor woman living at Longley, near Castle Hill, was
kept in dreadful agonies for many hours, in consequence.
of eight surgeons in Huddersfield and Almondbury suc-
cessively refusing to assist her in her accouchement till
the money was advanced; Mr. Wright, of Lockwood,
was ultimately sent for, and he cheerfully obeyed thecall.
