THE SUN.

SOLE ‘i qvis DICER E FALSI;NO AUDEAT

LONDON,
THURSDAY, NOPEMRER 2R, 1816.

Two days' Paris ropers, to the 2Gth, arrived
this morning. In the House of Peers on Friday,
an attempt, was made to•procure an invest igatitan
of the Ministerial proceedings to influence the
Elections, but it seems to have Ucen over-ruled
with a strong hand.—The poly public matter in
the other Chamber is, the proposition of the Law
for regulatior the Upper House in its Judicial
capacity.
_

The miscellaneous news is of a trifling kind.

NIYe understand that his 'Royal Highness the
PitTNC'E REGENT tuts been graciously pleased to
give directions that the sum of 50001. sl►onlul he
'slued to the Association for the Relief of the
Pour of Spitalfields and its vicinity, at the rate of
10001. per fortnight, out of the funds at the dis-
posal of the Crown. A communication to this
effect was made yesterday at the Home Offices, to
Messrs. HON MAY and BUKTOV, by Lords Li-
vonroot, and SIDIVIOUTH, and Mr. VAIIIITTART...--
(Morning Post.)

We receive a Inuit itode of suggecions for the
relief of the I'nor, and are happy to submit them
either to the Public generally, or to those in an.
thority through whom they may be ad vantAgeously
carried into execution. Our Correspondent C.
will observe, that his idea of :contributiog clothes,
bedding, &e. from the Depot of the Storekeeper-
General has already been acted upon. We ate
sure that Government will 061111)111e as large a
proportion of. these Articles ac-,the-service of the
Country permits, and as speedily as the emergency
of distress requires, and us wisely as the best
information
.which eau be 'procured allows.
But cases of this description there are
other duties .to unite with the impulse of Charity,
and Ministers must not commit a public %wrong,
even for the salie of popular fame and the Kral-
fication of personal feeliugs.

At the door of our neighbonr, Mr.Bitootts, the
Receiver-General of the Penny Charity for the
Copper Captain, there is !stared a gigantic Yours-
Box, as large as •,n
_Orange Chest, whit k slip cut
• .
in its lid, and an Inscription statingthatit wAs
for the reception of 'ss many pence as cou;d be
got for the payment of the taptaiWs fine and legal
expellees. This novelty attracted as many,gazers
AS Mr. ACKERMANN'S window, but did not draW
in one tythe so many customers. The Catch-
penny Scheme does not lake, and nobody will
give. The Inventors of this notable expedient
most therefore make up tike money in an under
hand way, and assert that their mendirity en-
riched them. At their next meeting the Copper
Captain will sing the Seotelvhallad of the it. Go-
. berlunzie Mon," and the Friends of Purity will
have the appropriate thorns—

" And a bilging we will go, will go, will go,
" And a bogging we wit' go."
There is something so exceedingly etintenipti.

" The following specimen of the puff direct
bas been given in a Morning Paper, where it was
very properly inserted as an ddvertisement :—" Mr.
CANNING,".&C. '

Now we beg to hint, that what was not an
advertisement was very improperly calla so by
-the Journitl in question. The paragraph was
- copied iiteratint from 'hie Snit, where it was

is not, however, so vindicate him, but to expose
the meanness of his assailants, that we have taken
up the pen.

To conclude with a word to the Journal which

remarks on the invented "specimen of the Puff

EMPLOYNIENT and RGLIEF ihe POOR.

On Tuesday ,week a meeting of the principal
inhabituots of Whitby was held at the Angel Nu,
to take into consideration the state of the poor dt
that place, when a liberal subscription was cub
tered into by the gentlemen present, which io the
course of the week amounted to near 1200/. On
the following Tuesday a second meeting was held
at the ,same place, to determine on the mode of ap-
plying the money', so as to afford the most extensive
and eflicient relief, when it was resolved topurs.
chase the articles of beef, mutton, pork, potatoes,
and coals, to be distributed to the labouring and
necessitous poor at reduced prices; those ahso...
lutely out oi•employ, or unable to labour, reedy.-
big such small sums from the parish as to enable
them to effect the purchase of the above articles.
Soup is intended to be added.
Among the various exertions that are made to
support the poor during the winter, William Ruse
sell, Esq. of Brancepeth Castle, is humanely giv-
ing employ to a great number o persons, in addi.
lion to those who have been statedly in his ser-
vice. Soldiers who have suffered in the war, and
people whose parishes are at a great distance,
ait-
pear to he •iu general the preferred objects of se-
lection. From 71. to 10s, a week are allowed as
wages, with due consideration of those, who have
families. A comfortable room, 34- feet long by
16 broad, has been provided with beds and bed-
ding, which will accommodate 30 people, and here,
those who have not families, and haw: fait other-
wise a hOme, are to reside continually. A large
fire is constantly kept up by Mr. Russell's bounty,
with every convenience to prepare their victuals.
An old serteant, who Served muter General Drum-
mond in his splendid preservation of Canada to
our empire, is to superintend these poor labourers.
He has also a }rouge provided for himself, and his
wife, is employed in keeping. the room in order,
Ecn. The last man who was received there is a,
soldier ; lie was almost without a coat, and had.
been twice' wounded at the battle of Vittoria. In'
'addl!ion to the above excellent example, and be.
sides the great number/4 old people who are con-
stantly employed on the grounds of liardwieke,
%rpm 20. to 30 mope have been taken in to werkk,.
in consequence of the seveitt of the pretent•dis-'
tress, by Mr. It's son, M. Itussvll, Esq. M.P.
This will not only afford comfortable subsistence.
to these poor people themsetves, but will thereby
exonerate the farmeis in sonic degree from the ,
nee.,ssity of affording parochial relief.--. (New-
