=THE ANDOVER INQUIRY.—We refer with much pleasure
to an announcement in another part of the paper, showing
that a committee has been formed, and subscriptions are
in progress, with a view to confer some mark of public gra-
titude on Mr. Westlake, the turgeon of the Andover Union.
To him the poor of the country, and more especially those
who are compelled to take refuge in workhouses,.are under
great obligations. He took up their cause with great spirit,
and, at much expense, prosecuted the tedious inquiry into
the conduct of the parties who had so grossly neglected their
duty. We observe among the subscribers the names of
several gentlemen well kin,wn for their humanity, and among
others that of Mr. Rawlinson, the senior magistrate of Maq- '
lebone.
