UNION-HALL.

Yesterday a young man named Robert William
Bartlett, whose starved and haggard appearance,
together with his tattered dress, bespoke the utmost
distress, was brought before Mr. HONG, having
been rescued from suffocation while asle6p on the
side of a limekiln on Thursday night.

The Night Constable of Camberwell, on the pre-
ceding night, walked over to a limekiln in that neigh-
bourhood, in order to see that no accident happened,
aware that three individuals had lost their lives by
suffocation at the same place, all of whom were
driven to seek shelter there from the weather. On
the present occasion, on his arrival there, be found
the unfortunate man above named lying close to the
mouth of the kiln, and the wind having shifted
shortly previous, the vapour arising from the burn-
ing bricks had such an effect on him that he was
unable to escape the danger that threatened him,
until the constable came up, who, seeing the dan-
gerous situation in which he was placed, dragged
him away to some distance, when, on breathing the
fresh air, he recovered in a short time from the
stupefaction into which he was thrown. The con-
stable added, that on saving Bartlett's life, he went
round the kiln, and, at some distance from the
mouth of it, saw another miserable object, huddled
up in a corner, with scarcely any covering on him.
This latter unfortunate had taken refuge there with
Bartlett, both of them having walked from Dover,
whither they had gone to seek work ; and not hav-
ing the means of paying for a bed, they were re-
duced to the alternative of seeking a night's shelter
in the place where they were found. This poor
creature, whose name is Johnson, had fallen asleep
close to the mouth of the kiln in the early part of
the night, and Bartlett, his companion in distress,
on awakening from a doze, found him missing from
his side. The latter directly jumped up, and on
looking into the kiln saw Johnson lying on the
bricks, and his clothes on fire : he instantly dragged
him out, but the poor fellow was so dreadfully burnt
that he was incapable of moving; anOartlett, after
having placed him away from danger, had the im-
prudence to stretch himself along the mouth of the
kiln, as described by the constable. The constable
added, that although Johnson was so much burnt
as to be unable to crawl along the streets, yet, on
presenting himself at the Borough Hospitals, the
persons who have the management of both institu-
tions refused to admit so urgent a case in conse-
quence of his labouring under an infectious eruptive
disease of the skin.

The moment the Magistrate, Mr. HONE, was
made acquainted with the cases of both the unfor-
tunate young men, he questioned Bartlett, who de-
dared that he and his companion had been without
food the whole preceding day ; and being completely
knocked up after travelling on foot from Dover, they
went and laid down at the side of the kiln, The
poor fellow said that he worked as a wine-cooper,
but that his sight failing him he was obliged to re-
linquish that business, and the disease of his eyes
getting gradually worse, he was rendered incapable
of obtaining work, and he was compelled to roam
in search of food, wherever he could obtain it.
Sometimes he went for days together without
yictuals, and had not slept in a bed for the laq six
weeks, .h.avipg, during that period, no shel!er but
that Which imps, outhouses, and lime-kilns affortled.
Mr. IioNE having bestowed the greatest pains in
the investigation of both the cases, ascertained that
Bartlett had a claim on Marylebone, immediately
wrote to the rarish-officers, describing the circum-
stances under' which the unfortunate man was found,
and 'entreating them to extend their assistance in re-7
lieving an' object of such diitress; the Magistrate
at the same tune presentM him with a few shillings
to procure him food. and a bed for the night, in the.
e-iepi. of his 11(?t seeing' the parish-officers that day.
With f6peet to the- case' of 4ohnson, which was
a very dePlorable one; the nigisfrat oti'lyaring that
they refused to take him as a patient at either
Guy'S or St, Thomas's hospitals, expressed much
surprise, observing, that he thought the founders
never contemplated that a case of that description,
where a man was burnt in a shocking manner, should
be rejected as an in-door patient because he laboured
