Yesterdays very old man complained to the Magi/tests of the
refusal °film Parish Officers to relieve him in his distrese,aker
being forty years a perishioner. It appeared from the old mess's
statement that hs lived with his wife and daughter, who contributed
to his support ; and on his applying for some parochial aid, be was
told be must part irons his family and go into the Workhouse; and
moreover be was threatened if he applied to the Magistrate. Mr.
Gamerru censured this method of condecting the parochial affairs,
and called on the Parish Officers to attend to the old man's com-
plaint, which they promised to do, and he departed thankful.
A most wretched-looking old man, who had lost one arm, and
was shivering from head to foot, under the effects of a paralytic
stroke, applied as the nominee of a member of a Friendly Society.
fur an order for the payment of a sans of money. which is, ac.
cording ota the rules of the Society, payable on the death of a
member. The deceased member was a Julia Reade, who had
lived with the applicant as his wife, and she, foe want of nearer
connexion, bad appointed him to receive the mortuary fee. To
resist the payment of this sum, a Mr. Matthews appeared, as
Clerk to this Society, which is kept at the Queen's Head, Paradise..
street. Now, 11r. Matthews, who was the very reverse of the
poor applicant, In personal appearance, being, in point of fact, a
I short, sleek. plump-looking Gentleman, is undertaker, and also
Clerk to, the Society. His objections to the claim of the poor man,
notwithstanding the earnestness wish which he enforced them. were
all over-ruled by the Magistrate, Mr. GRUM% who was about to
write an order for the payment of the money. when he was stopped
by Mr. Matthews, who said that he should not pay the money, but
appeal to the Sesolons.
Mr. Gasrma—The Sessions have no more jurisdiction than
I have.
Mr. Matthews—Well, we are not enrolled, and nobody can com-
pel us to pay anything.
Mr. GeIIIVIPITY—It is a most shameful thing to get the poor
peopk's money, and then treat them in this manner.
Mr. Matthews deliberately left the office.

A yotdtg man of very respectable appearance, named Henry
Pisslwey. who stated himself to have served- for several years as
Quarter-master Srrjeant of the 19th LIAM., and now on the half.
pay of that Regiment, was, with two other decent-looking young
men, cabinet-maken by trade, brought from St. George's watch-
house, charged with riotous and disordedy conduct (which is now
the term In use with watchmen) in the street the night before.
One watchman swore, that about one o'clock he saw the three
prisoners come out of the Feathers public-house, in Grosvenor.
place, and as they proceeded along the street, they began to sing and
make a noise. and on 11Is desiring them net to disturb the inhabi-
tants, Mr. Psnkney told hint that it was no part of his duty to pie-
vent noise—that he was merely placed Mae streets to walk about,
and see that persons were not robbed. 1-le then told them, that if
they did not desist from disturbing the inhabitants, he would take
them to the watch-house, but at the same time advised them to go
home. This, however, they refused to do, but insisted on being
taken no the watch-house, and thither be took them accordingly.
The defendants flatly contradicted the evidence of the watchman,
'ard said that they were ready to swear that they never entered the
Feathers public-house, e•r thought of doing so; they had been
spending the evening with a friend, whom they could educe;
and they were merely coneeesing with each other, in the%rdinary
tone, when the watchman assailed them ; and should cettainly
diet him' for perjury. The Magistrate said he would give them •
the upportUnlty vt sto Joint:, by huldwg them to bail fur the Sessions..
