There is a story which has occupied much of
the conversation of the higher circles for some days past, rela-
tive to a draught for 5,0001. of one Noble Lord in favour of
another, which was dishonoured, not for want of " effects," but
for want of " consideration."—Morning Herald.

A public meeting was held at Huddersfield
on Tuesday last, in an open piece of ground in Ramsden-street,
to take into consideration the distress which prevails amongst
the woollen and fancy weavers in the west riding of Yorkshire.
Upwards of 4,000 persons assembled upon this occasion; and,
as the meeting was held in the evening, for the convenience of
the working people, part of their proceedings were conducted
by torch-light. Our limits prevent us from entering into
the facts disclosed at this meeting by a Mr. Beaumont, and
other speakers, who, having been appointed by the Poli.
tical Union to ascertain the state of the labourers of the district,
enumerated a variety of cases, which, to say no more of them,
completed a picture of misery which is heart-rending to con.
template. The earnings of the families which had been visited
by the deputation did not exceed twopence a head per day,
and this the speaker assured the meeting was a " faithful
specimen of the state of a vast majority of the operatives of Al.
monbury." Scammonden, which had been also visited, was in the
same condition. The average allowance stated above will give a
general idea of the wretchedness described, but the details amount
almost to horror. After several persons had addressed the meeting,
which unfortunately had too much reason to sympathise deeply
in the distresses that were enumerated, some resolutions were
agreed to, expressive of their opinion as to the extent Of the
relief.

" ARLINGTON."—The novel so called, (by
the distinguished author of " Granby") is understood to be in
a state of considerable forwardness at press. The story is said
to abound in the multiform incidents characteristic of the early
life of a young nobleman ; and to be expository of the vat ions
scheming characters, male and female, who in the present time,
prey on such a personage. Those who recollect the Tyrrell
and Treheck in the author's novel of " Granby," will know
what to expect from the fulfilment of his new talc of modern
society.

SOlClDE.,—Yesterday an inquest was held on
the body of James Barnet, a chemist, aged 50, who destroyed
himself by poison, at his lodgings, in Little St. Thomas
the Apostle. The deceased was found lying Oil his face quite
dead, with a bottle its his hand which had contained Prussic
acid. In a letter found near him he stated that he had submit-
ted to treatment the most degrading from an individual whom
he considered incapable of such conduct, and, from repeated
attacks of misfortune, life had become a burden to him. " He
desired that his " worthless body" might be given to the
