ANGULAR, APPLICATION TO THE GUARDIANS OF THE
LEEK UNlON.—Sozne few weeks ago a highly respect-
able tradesman, from Lancashire, obtained permission
to inspect the above establishment, merely for the pur-
pose of amusement and information. When introduced
into the school, he was struck with amazement at the
cleanliness and proper demeanour of the scholars. lie
also expressed his astonishment at the progress they had
made in education at so early an age, and in such a
place, observing that he had a son about the same age
in a respectable school, who had by no means acquired
SO much knowledge as those poor boys. On Wednesday
last, Dec. 9, the said gentleman made a formal applica-
tion to the board of guardians for his son's admission
into the house for the purpose of education, at the same
time proposing a handsome remuneration and submission
to the rules of the house, as to clothing, diet, and all
other restraints put upon the pauper children. The
beard, which was numerously attended, unanimously
passed a resolution for the admission of the boy, subject
to the approval of the Poor-law Commissioner&—Cor-
respondew of the klacclesfield Chronicle,
