It gratified him to state further, that the officers of the
berwell workhouse, somewhat beyond their rules and regu-
lations, kindly ofi'ered to take the woman in and protect her till the ends of justice should be obtained. •
Lord DUDLEY STUAET then rose to move the first resolu-
tion. His acquaintance with the Society was very- slight, but
he thought that, without any very laboured study or long
cogitation, its objects would commend themselves as worthy
of public attention. But its great of was to enable the
poor man to obtain his rights, and that he thought was one
of the noblest that could be offered to a meeting of English..
men. _The new poor-law was, no doubt, an improvement on
the old one. but under it he had too . good
reason to believe that many . grievances 'existed. It.
was gratifying on that account that a society of
individuals should unite, not so much to support the poor by
contributions of money, as to enable them to gain those rights
which were acknowledged by the law of th-e land. There
were good points, he thought, in the present poor-law, many
good points, but he was aware that it was avoided in many
iestances by maleadminietration and by the ignorance and
cruelty of Officers. To protect the poor then against these
unjust deprivations of their rights this Society existed, and
therefore he was happy to give it all the aid lie could; and
knowing that it could not be carried on without means, espe-
cially at first, he would very gladly subscribe 5L His Lord-
ship added 24, a donation from Mr. Frederick Pigou, and
stated that Mr. Pigou, a great friend of humanity and tha
poor, was only prevented by ill health from being personally present at the meeting, for he had warmly commended it to his Lordship's attention. His Lordship concluded with
moving—.
" That this meeting agrees with the resolution passed at a
public meeting of our fellow-citizens, that the poor ought to
lee relieved in the spirit of kindness, more especia w they have for years been usefully employed in thell y parish to
o
winch they are compelled, from infirmity. or old age, to apply
in the hour of necessity."
Mr. J. S. BUCKINGHAM seconded the resolution, which was
put to the meeting, and carried unanimously.
Mr. GEORGE WILSON, one of the governors of the poor in
Westminster, moved the second resolution. He said he sup-
ported the Society because he thought the deserving but
neglected poor should have a refuge and an opportunity of
appeal. He hoped the Society would not confine its exer-
tions to cases in which the relief allowed by the law was re-
fused, but extend them to those in which part of the popula-
tion were lowered in the scale of being by the neglect, and
improper conduct of those
.who ought to exalt them. He
concluded by 'flowing— -
" That, f'rom the impossibility of the poor and destitute
obtaining for themselves any redress against neglect or wil-
fulness from the officers or others appointed to dispense the
existing laws, this meeting deems the establishment of the
Poor Man's Guardian Society a benevolent and useful work
-iii the cause of humanity, and worthy of our co-operation
and individual support."
Mr. BUuNs seconded the resolution, which was carried
unanimously.
,t••
Lord RAicELAGN moved—
" That all persons-present disposed to unite and subscribe
in aid of the objects of this Society enrol their -names as
members this evening."
Some other gentleman addressed the meeting, which, after
passing a vote of thanks to the chairman, broke up. s

COVENT GARDEN THEATRE

M. Jullien has taken this theatre for a short series of
COWL? D'Ete, which commenced last evening. The
theatre is elegantly fitted up, and M. Jullien has not
neglected to introduce those mapfilleent vases, filled
with the choicest flowers, which have hitherto 1-*en
the prevailing characteristic of the Concerts D'Ett;.
M. Jullien has, however, made an innovation upon
the usual programme of promenade concerts;
he gives us-vocal as well as instrumental music, and his
vocalists are, like his instrumentalists, in the very first
rank of the profession. Miss Birch and Herr Pischek
are engaged for these concerts, and these artistes last
night gave us the keautiful duct " 0 du Gliebile" in
exquisite style. Monsieur and Mademoiselle Goldberg
are likewise engaged, and in the duet "I Gondolieri,"
_they were rapturously applauded. Herr Hoelzil gave
the German song "Der Schmerz," in admirable style;
and, altogether, the experiment of the introduction of
vocal music into these concerts may be pronounced to
have been most successful. The instrumental music
consisted of a selection of favourite overtures, selections,
quadrilles, and waltzes, performed as Jullien's band
alone can perform them. The house was crowded to
suffocation, and we may safely promise to M. Jullien a
prosperous career for his Concerts .D'Ete.

ASCOT HEATH RACES
FRIDAY.

The favourable anticipation which we indulged in a,
the beginning of the meeting, have been, we are happy
to say, fully verified by the results. The sport on the
first three days was abundant, and the most fastidious
have pronounced it first- rate. The conclusion of the
meeting, which, apart from the regretted absence of her
Majesty, took place under the most felicitous circum-
stances, did not detract from its promising announce-
ment. The great feature yesterday was the rich prize
offered for competition by the Directors of the Great
Western Railway. Though " tarde veuit et post long
intervallo," it must be received with becoming gratitude.
The Public Press, that ever takes the initiative in all
that is useful or amusing, deserves popular thanks upon
this head, for we do not hesitate to say that, had it not
been for its representations, the great probability is that
the directors would not have thought of setting apart
any portion of the large profits annually derived from
the races to the improvement of them.
As is generally the case at the wind-up of a long meet-
ing, the attendance yesterday was confined to the keen
minority, who are always determined ,to be in at the
finish ; who, after the bustle, jostling, and excitement of
the cup day, looked fora good quiet day's racing, without
annoyance or interruption, and they were not disap-
pointed. Before we conclude, we should not forget to
compliment Lord Rosslyn and his staff on the efficient
manner in which their arduous functions were performed.
The starting, judging, weighing and keeping of the
course, were all that might have been expected
from parties who on all occasions have
proved themselves eminently qualified for the
duties assigned to them. The only contretemps worth
speaking of were the exhibition of the wrong number
in Jericho's race on Wednesday, and the omission of two
of Sir Gilbert lieathcote's horses from the cards on the
first day. With regard to the latter we should mention
that Lord Exeter, whose horse ran second for one of
them, the Ascot Derby, qlaimed the race on the ground
that Brother to Valentissimo had been scratched. It
turned out on investigation that omission arose from a
misconception, and the judge's decision was confirmed.
The racing yesterday came oft as follows :- -
Match, 100 It ft, Bst 71b each. T.Y.C. Duke of Bedford's
Taurina received forfeit from Mr. Death's Camelia.

THREF. BROTHERS POISONED BY A SISTER.—The
Wet:ford ladepeueleitt of Wednesday states that an Friday last three
brothers, named James, john, and Michael Cullen, residing at Kyle,
died from the effects of arsenic which they had taken that morning
in their breakfast. An Inquest Was held, and the jury returned, the
following verdict :—" We find the deceased came by their deaths in
consequence of having taken poison in stirabout, but how or by what
means administered we are unable to say." On Tuesday, however.
the mystery was cleared up by the confession of Mary Cullen, the
umnarrled sister of the unfortunate young men deceased, that she was
the per who put the poison into the food by which they came by
their deaths. Suspicion of her guilt having arisen, head constable
Nicholson, and some of the police under his direction, proceeded from
VVextord to make inquiry. In the mean time, (leorge Le Hunt.
Esq., J.l'., and Samuel Tench, Esq., J P. were brought to the house
to examine her. In reply to the questions put to her by the magis-
trates, hi the presence of head constable Nicholson, she confessed
that ehe luid put the poison into the water in the pot, beton, the meal
was put mu to make the stirabont. She did so, she said, at a time
when her mother had her back turned. She stated that she had
procured poison twice for the purpose—first in last March, and again
more recently. She had procured it on both occasions by sayingshe
wanted it for the destruction of rats. The magistrates, haring re-
ceived her confession, immediately made out her committal, attd•ahe
was forthwith brought in custody to Wexford gaol, and fully emit-
nutted to abide her trial at the nex assizes.
