Dundas, the service will be equally fortunate.

o? a meeting, consisting chiefly of ladies, supporters
to this society, was held at the Hanover- square Rooms.
tirrll Dudley Stuart (in the absence of the president,
41: Alderman Fairbrother) took the chair. The hono-
r „
rciirt secretary read a correspondence between the com-
-11. ce and Sir G. Grey, from which it appeared that the
Wight Honourable Gentlemen had refused an interview
'lth a deputation who were to explain to him the great
11:1,,ittry done to sempstresses by allowing shirts and other
clothing to be made at the lowest rate in prisons and
Ivorkhouses, and by sanctioning contracts for the making
tf the uniforms of the police, army, and navy at
14rvation wages. In his last answer, Sir G. Grey said
that his predecessor in office, Sir James Graham, had in
:instituted an inquiry ito the subject, and the re-
14t4was that the contract system was not to be inter-
fered with. The honorary secretary said that, had it not
been for this
b. system of low wages, one firm in the City
Zelda have given remunerating employment to 2,000
°F enaPatresses. Resolutions were passed in furtherance
of the objects of the society, and deprecating the refusal
Sirt George Grey to listen to the representations of
e committee. The chairman having received the usual
Oartesies, the meeting separated.
