The MAGISTIt.4.TES of -GLASGOW are speedily
redeeming their promise of creating work for the
unemployed Operatives. Three hundered ope-
ratives are engaged at the quarries, and, notwith-
standing thesudden transition from sedentary ha bits
to such a laborious employment, the men are appa-
rently cheerful; their hands, however, have
suffered severely, and it may be eight or ten days
before they be properly prepared for the fa.
tigue • in consideration of this they are allowed
for the first six days sixpence each, iu addition
to what they can make by piece work. Several
who have applied themselves earnestly, have earn-
ed one shilling per day, being half a yard of
metal, at the highest paying prices. Besides
those who are employed in the quarries, and by
several worthy gentlemen in thee neighbourhood,
it is expected that the Magistrates will employ
about 700 more in other works—so that the dis-
tress will for some tirhe be greatly alleviated,
and those who are toiling at the loom will be in-
duced to throw up their work till-better prices be
obtained. Never in the annals of misery and of
Weaving web given out at'a halfpenny per
ell, the weaver to pay the weft winding, till
this awful period ; and the`
who`ma,nufacturer who
gives it, and the poor wret accepts of it,
are equally to be Pitied--(Glasgovo Free Press.)
