POLICE.

Gvnaartati..—John Ribbon, ; ;tort able man, ffry years of
age, had obtained a $11132113(::111 agaimt the Parish treir:Ts of St.
Bartholomew the (ireat, for refusing to grant him relief, he be-
ing out of employ, and without the means of mid attaining him-
kir. On the case berg esdled on for hearing on ri.iturdsj, be-
fore Mr. Ahlerman Cox, the Sitting Magistrate, the 13erdle of
the Parish of St. Bartholrenew came forward, -end stated, that
the Pour of their Parish were farmed ("tit at Mr. Salton's, the
City Fans House, Lower-road, Islington ; that tug complainant
had ken sent to that house with the rather Paupers, and that, af-
ter lent:Antes there torte time, he kft it of his own free will;
Mat on Lis again applying for relief, the overseers offered him an
order to go back to Mr. Sutton's, which he seined ; notwith-
standing this refusal, the Beadle said the Overseers were still
willing to admit him into that house, and be produced an order
signed by them for that purpose. The Pirish Officers bad no-
"'ale: to say against the complainant; they were allowing Iris wife
3s. per week, with which and her own industry she main..s.ied
herself end children, and they were willing to maintain him in
the same manner in which their othor poor were maintained,
until he could get into employ. Under these cirrumstances he
tubtinittu-d, the Parish ()Cicero could not be accused of refusing
to relieve him. Hibbert said, that was not what he bad to corn-
plain of; he was both able and wilting to work, and had its wish
that his wife ur himarlii should be burdensome to the Parish, if
he could get employ ; but that was ,rite impossible, if be watt'
back to Mr. Sutton's, for there he was locked up from week's
end to week's and, and never permitted to look out for work ;
be believed there were orders given that none of the poor of St.
Bartholomew's Parish that Id go out on a week day; and as to
Mr. Sutton, there was no such thine as seeing him; he bad tried
it several times, for the purpose of swing his leave to go out. In
short, he had been closely shut up fer six 'weeks and one day,
Muhl which time be bid never set foot in the Street, except on
a Sunday, which was no day for him to inquire for work. On
die part of the Overseer's, it was rvglied, that no particular or-
ders were given respecting their Poor ; that tittiy were subjected
to the same regulations as the Pnor of usher Patislies main-
tamed at Mr. Sutton's, with the rianareinent of whose Louse
they (the Overseers) did not, of coos:, interfere. Mr. Alder-
man Cox observed, that it was very necessary somebody should
interfere. Hete was a miler, Jodi:striae, man, whose is:ly crime
was his poverty, canfined for.weeks together, and Mi,..reby pre-
vented from seeking work, which, if proper liberty had been al-
lowed him be would probably eve this have obtained ; he should
. have thought a regard to the interests of the Parish would have
dictated an opposite line of cohilect ; at all events, he was quite
sure the laws of England would not authorise the ofScers of any
parish to add unnecessary imprisonment to unmerited distress.
He felt it therefore a duty be owed to the public to have this
complaint minutely inquired into ; for which purpose he direo-
ted a summons to be issued for the attendance of the Overseen
themseiver, and also Mr. Sutton, the Master of the Farm-house,
stating at the same time his intention to be present on the bear-
ing of the case.

A few years back the farmers of Dauney, in Wilts,
let to the poor labourers of their parish, Mho had
large families, three. acres/of land each, at two pounds
per acre; and soon afterward the late Lord Pcrxii-
BOROUGH gratuitously built a. barn for them, where
they could thrash their corn ; the consequence Was,
that those men had their names immediately struck
of the parish book; have brought up their families
to industry and honesty, and all of them now cheer-
fully pay to the aged and infirm of the said parish
their regular rates. The formers declare that the
parish have saved hundreds by this plan. The Gen-
tlemen and farmers of Great Comerford, in the same
county, are now pursuing a similar plan, by letting
-the same number of acres to the poor with large fa-
milies, and paying their taxes. Each farmer allows
according to the extent of his farm.
Eon-motion, FRIRUARY 22.—An active young
man, of the name of Macrae, in going lately with a
letter from Kintail to Lnchcarron, having been be-
nighted by the way, fell from the top of a precipice,
and was killed on chi spot.—Thursdayse'nnight, two
children, one about five years of age, and the other
only three, amusing themselves on the banks of the,
Ythan, fell into the river, and were drowned.—
