AFFLICTING CIRCUMSTANCE.—Yesterday the
remains of the late Mr. Reikie, baker, No. 409, in the Strand,
and those of his son, a youth of 14 years of age, were interred
in the same grave. Their funerals as they passed through the
streets, excited much sympathy for the deceased. The son
died on Monday last, of a wound which he received a fortnight
before, from falling on an iron spike, from the bough of a tree
in Hyde Park, and the father expired on Tuesday, having had
recourse to poison, caused by the extreme distress of his mind,
on which occasion the Coroner's inquest brought in a ver-
dict of insanity. Mr. Reikie was much respected by his
neighbours.
DEATH BY WRESTLING.—On Sunday evening
last a wrestling match took place at Mr. Dawson's, the George
and Dragon, Jericho, near Bury, between James Crabtree,
woollen weaver, 65 years of age, and Edmund Chadwick,
collier, aged 39, on the challenge of the former. In the con-
test Chadwick threw his antagonist over his head. He
pitched on his head on the flagged floor, and fractured one of
the higher bones of the vertebrae. He lingered until Wednes-
day morning, and expired. A verdict of " Accidental Death"
has been returned.—Liverpool Chronicle.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT,

THIS DAY, MONDAY, JULY 28.

HOUSE OF LORDS.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at
twelve o'clock.

On the motion of the Marquis of SALISBURY, the
Commons' amendments to the Friendly Societies Bill were
agreed to.

—The House then went into Committee upon the Poor Laws
Amendment Bilk; clause 52, taking away the power
from the Magistrates to order out-door relief was the first put.
The Marquis of SALISBURY suggested that cases of
peculiar urgency might arise in which it would be advisable to
continue the power until the first meeting of the vestry. As
the law at present stood the overseer was placed in too respon-
sible a situation, for if he refused a pauper relief who had a
magistrate's order, he was liable to an indictment, while,
if the vestry refused to -pass his accounts, he was
obliged to pay the money so paid upon order out of his
pocket. He would propose, that if any such orders were dis-
allowed, the money ought to be paid by the magistrate who
signed it. •
The Bishop of LONDON did not think the' magistrates
would accept such a power, clogged with such responsibility.
He thought the Court of Guardians would support their over.
seer, if he paid no attention to an order under such circum-
stances.

The Bishop of EXETER said he thought the p-ower o f
indictment was scarcely to be taken into account, for there
was no source provided from which funds to prosecute were to
be taken. He proposed a proviso by which justices were em-
powered to order relief in sudden cases of emergency, and if
refused, the overseer to forfeit, upon conviction, the sum of
five pounds.
The Earl of HAREWO OD objected to the power being
given to the magistracy, because their orders were to be over-
ridden by the Commissioners.
The Bishop of LONDON thought if the proviso was added
to the Bill, it would altogether nullify the clause, and reduce
things pretty much to the same state as they were at present.
After a few words from the Earl of WINCHILSEA, Lord
WYNFORD, and Lord CHICHESTER,

The LORD CHANCELLOR agreed to the amendment
of the words food and clothing being struck out, and other
necessaries introduced instead. He could not agree with the
amendment of the Noble Marquis ( Salisbury), for it was a
new and not very good plan to make a Judge pay for a wrong
decision.—(A laugh.)
After a few words from the Duke of Wellington, Lord
Ellenborough, Lord Wharncliffe, and the Lord Chancellor,
the amendment was altered, to embrace only cases of casual
poor of a peculiar, sudden, and urgent character, and agreed to.
The clause was further amended, and at last was agreed to ; it
then gave power to the guardians to order relief to the casual
poor, in cases of absolute necessity, but not in money.
