Rev. Edward Groves. a Clergyman of the Established

loyalty to their King, obedience to the law, and kindly feeling and

the streets became extraordinary. The soldiers of the gar-
rison were drawn out in single files, and reached from
the Castle to the point near Kingstown, where the
Marquis of Angle.ey embarked, a distance of near seven

of road, and not a hedge or a window was unoccupied.

'IIIIIDISTREIHISD INHABrTA NTS°, SPITALFIELDS
The poverty and misery in Spitalfields ate dreadful
In the extreme. A deputation from the unfortunate weavers,
who are out of employment, waited upon the LORD MAYOR
two days ago, for the purpose of soliciting Ms Lordship's
advice in this awful extremity ; and yesterday, at his Lord-
ship's desire, one of the principal Ulcers of the parish called
upon him to acquaint him with the actual condition of the
poor in that extensive and industrious district. He assured the Lord
Mayor that the wretchedness of the unemployed mechanics was
almost incredible. The Parish Authorities bad been o►liged, in order
to relieve the craving necessities of 2,400 individuals, to borrow

a sum of money upon the approaching assessment. Some idea
might be formed of the condition of the population of *Wallah
from a knowledge of the fact, that there were at that moment no
fewer than 600 looms now vacant. A parish so indigent, and so
immensely populous, was quite unable to support such an over-
whelming demand upon its resources.
The LORD MAYOR desired the Parish Meer to mention to the
Rector, and the other Authorities of the Parish, his wish to see
Ilthem on Friday next, In order to consuk with them upon, the most
effectual means of administering relief. It was mentioned Inci-
dentally, that apprehensions were entertained that the greater part
of the trade of Spitallields would be permanently transferred to
Maccle*Seld, and oth.-r towns, where the commodity is to be
worked on terms reconcilable with the state of the trade. In the
event of such a change, the destitute condition of Spitalfields would
be incapable of any improvement or amelioration.
The course supposed to be likely to be advised, for the relief, is
the usual one of a Public Meeting, and :lee proposal of some general
measure for encouraging the Spital6elds manufacture.
It is probable also that the Lord Mayor will apply to the Corpos
ration for a second loan of the Guildhall, for a Concert in aid of
the funds, which the urgent necessity of the case requires should at
once be attempted to be raised.
The readiness with which the Chief Magistrate undertakes to
aid, on all occasions which call for the public sympathy, is highly
honourable to him, and confirms the exalted opinion entertained of
him by his fellowaratixens.
TH ri-VtA IUER,

GLASGOW, JAIIIIMIT 20.
The weather has become very severe; the frost yes-
terday was very keen ; the thermometer about 14 deg.
below the freezing pnint at mid-day in this city. The,
barnmetlr is high, and the atmosphere appear sealed
fur a Listing trot.

DUM FRIES, JANUARY 20.
Alter a fortnight of very moderate frost, which dried
the ground, cleared the ditches, enabled the husband-
man to cart manure, checked the young wheats where
inclining to get spindly, gave the sheep a dry and
kindly bed, whether on the hills, or hemmed in by
flecks, feasting on turnips, the weather has as length set
in with rigour. Yesterday, in fact, was the first truly
wintry thy we have had; and it was curions to mark
the change that had occurred within the lapse of ■
very few hours. Early in the morning everything was
while, not excepting the house tops; and long after the
sun h tis n, the " c anrenc h call " lay thick and un•
broken on many a field. In the gardens, the ornamental
shrubs and bush• s looked like as many Misses going to
a Ball, and not all the peruquiers in the wsuld could
have twisted their locks into so many fairy forms and
shapes. While Ct.ffel is nearly bare of snow, Queens-
berry has got his wig well powdered, and as the storm
came upon us when the moon was full, it is likely ro be
of some continuance. Last night her Ladyship looked
down (in a war sublime scene, and her beams as they
flickered far and wide—reflected every where from a
sheeny expanse of prodigious magnitude—seemed to
p rur forth a double portion of light. At an early hour
the Curlers were all busy getting their stones, brooms,
and tramps in order, and although the ice was rather
weak, many a bunspeil was contested with admirable
skill and spirit. To-day again they are busy with their
"roaring play," and as they appear to be calculating
on a long lease tif their favourite sport, the butchers as
well as the gardeners will profit by the increased con-
sumption of beef and greens. The whiskey merchants,
101, will get rough of custom, and if the storm last long
i s effects will be felt in the returns of next quarter's
revenue!
