NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR TR! PROTICCTIOR Or''
I.anous..—A Correspondent says the funds of this institn-
tiun are now open, so that any member who may be out of
employ in cousequenca of a reduction of his wages, will be
entitled to the usual allowance. The following trades have
been relieved from the funds t Framework-knitters. Sock
Branch, Glove Branch, Needle-makers, Tailors. We on- •
detstand, that about 150 individuals, dyers and hienosss,
have become Members of the Association doling the last
fortnight.
CORPOSATR FUNDS —We sec informed, that at a Com.l
mon Hall, held a few days ego, on the subject of
Alderman Newton's Charity, a proposition was made and •
carried, (thou gil strongly opposed by two of the Body)
that the sum (Shout 0001.) expended in bringing dawn •
Mr. derjamt Teddy at the late election, should -be de-
frayed out of the Corporate Ponds I It thus appears,.
that despite of Mr. Evans's Bill to prevent the application
of there funds to electioneering purposes, a large sum has
been, or will be paid, when the Committee have examined
the accounts.

Tasassz.--The classical taste, spirit, and enterprise, of
which Mr. Penley his given such a conspicuous proof in
the decoration of the theatre, are equally evinced in the pray
deal business of the Mtge. The pieces already produced
prove him to base tepid to the claims, value, and
.uiportence of the late drama; yet with a due sprink.
ling of more light antessment.
