MEETING AT-KENDAL FOlt THE RELIEF OF

TUE POOR:

A public hteeting was held on Fliday, in the Town-
hall, for the purpose of considering the best me. ns of
Fiving support or employment to those how out of work-
fwo plans of giving relief were pivoted to the Aft eting:
the first was to enter into a subscription, to purchase
provisions and other necessaries for them t Vie other was
to collect sub .criptions, whiCh should be considered in
the nature of a loan, to be laid out in giving employment
in breaking stones, and rr.utned when the stones:should
'be sold—the subscribers bearing their share of any loss
that might be sustained. Some of the Gentlem •n wished
both of the propositions to be adopted, pat ticu arly if the
relief granted could be confined to those who had not
received any parochial assistance, all the speakers ea-
pre,eng the tinngest desire to keep up t' at spirit of
independence amongst the labourin4 poor which was
but too sure to he broken down, when indebted for sub-
sistence to parish relief. The plan, however, was ob-

j-cted to on the griund, that in giving this sort of
rel;ef, it was only lessening the burden of the poor
rates, for that where the subscription allowance was
rot sufficient for a family, and they were ohliited to :tri-
ply to tie pars 1, then, •rseers only added a sum in pro-
portion to what the applicants had received from the
charity fund. Besides this, a great proportion of those
out of employment belonged to other• parishes; and if
the present stagnation of trade continued (of which there
appeared every probability), it would be impossible to
rai e a sufficient subscription to maintain all, particts.
larly during the winter, when clothes and other things
would be wanted, which were not now; and it wasp
therefore of consecinesce that those who Withal:ea it.
other parishes should be removed as early as possible.
Every one appeared to regret the necessity of this pro.
ceeding, but all concurred in the justice of first pro-
viding for those who had the strongest claim to support,
by ,being natives and parishioners. The second propo-
sition was, therefore, adopted; and a resolution was.
moved and cartied, to the effect that subscriptions
should be immediately entered into, for the purpose of
employing the poor in breaking stones, the stones to be
afterwards sold for the repayment of the subscriptions.
A very liberal subscription was entered into in the room.
It was generally agreed, that it -would be necessary to
call another meeting s ton, for that the present measure
could only be considered as temporary.

LAMBETH-STREET.

Yesterday two sisters, named Matilda and Swath 114 k, who ap.
peared to be quite novices in crime, were put to the bar on a charge
of s►op-lifting, in the shop of Mr. Bedmead, a unman and jewel.
ler, in Hereford.place, Commercial-road.
In substantiation of the charge, Mrs. Bellowed stated that the
prisoners came into her shop about twelve o'clock on that day, and
asked to look at some necklaces; she chewed them some, one of
which the prisoner Matilda bought. The ether prisoner, Sarah.
asked for some gold rings, abd she drew out theXray and thawed
her some, three of which she laid bold of and tried 04, and observed
that they did not fit her, on which witness said that one of those in
her hand would ; she then opened her hand, bet there were only two
in it. Something had dropped.just before, and withess asked if it
was the ring? The prisoner replied it was not, on which the taxed
them with having it. They both denied the fact, but perceiving
the prisoner Matilda faketing in her speech, she asked her the rea-
son, and she produced from her mouth a piece of papet on which
the ring had been. An officer was sent for, who, on searching their
persons, found the ring in the prisoner Matilda's mouth.
Seagrove, the officer, deposed as to finding the ring; and the
prisoners declining to offer any defence, were committed to New.
gate. Neither of them were above sixteen years of age, and, bay.
lag neither father nor mother, appear to have been driven to the act
by necessity.

KING'S TH EA. FRE.

•
The Serious Opera of gelmira, which introduced Roma and his
wile to a gritish audience, as conductor and prima derma in 1844,
*as revived on Thursday, for Signor Custom's benefit. It 'was
repeated on Saturday night. A musical critic has observed, slut
" the composer has obviouslywritten this Opera with more care t►an
usual, and has studied striking combinations of harmony and ae=
companiment, more than melody." It is. perhaps. to remedy this
that Madame Pura, who represents Zeinsira, has intrositieed a
salsa composed for her by Rossini, which was encored. Madame
PAM sang in the must impassioned manner throughout. Counter,
as .4fraersore, was energetic and impressive ; the dethroned Atiitioro
was sustained by Pat.:Ammo, who gave the tender air, ‘,4IA gie
eresevrse," with great feeling; Madame CoRNROA, as Emma, ong
effectively, in the concerted pieces, of which there are many very
beautiful; and Foam and TORRI, as Leucipps and Ile, sang with
their usual ability—we could wish for greater energy in the Fatter.
The Opera was received with immense applause. The Ballet of
Le Rol Champetre concluded the entertainments. The House teas
wvU attended.

'tommence operations, for the Seraskier to aJvance by

FROM THE AUSTRIAN OBSERVER.
The Amblers Observer has some accounts from Con-
stantinople of iOth June, in which it is stated, that the,
excesses committed by the Greek pirates daily increase,
-and that complaints are received from all quarters. and
.from all orations trading in the Levant. The coast of
Syria, too, is still infested with Greek pirates ; however,
an attempt made by them on the Bth of May, to sur-
prise the Port of Alexandria, was entirely defeated by
the judicious measures of the Authorities and the inha-
litants. While the ships of the insurgents are every
where exercising robbery and pillage, the Turkish and
-Egyptian squadrons cruise without obstacle in the
Archipelago.

LAW REPORT.

COURT OF CHANCERY, MAT t 4.
MILL= V. MILLISH.
The LORD CIIANCRLLOR observed, that in this ease

he felt considerable difficulty in allowing the large sum
of money in question to be paid out of Court on the
undertaking of Mr. Mellish to pay it back if required.
Mr. Hama said, that perhaps his Lordship would
not object to one half the sum being drawn out by Mr.
Mellish on his own undertaking, or the whole of it upon
sufficient security for its repayment if necessary.
The Loa* CHASCILLLOS said, he considered that proposal per-
fectly reasonable.
IX•PARTE PICKSRING, IN 111 HUTCHINSON AND CITRUS.

Mr. Iloasa reminded his Lordship that he had di-
rected a meeting of the creditors in this case to be con-
vened for the purpose of considering whether they would
continue the old, or make a new choice of assignees. He
now applied is the Court to ascertain whether the for-
mer powers of attorney would be deemed sufficient on
the present occasion.
The LORD CHANCRLLOR said tint his order was to
convene a sheeting to consider whether or not- they
would make a new choice of assignees; and the former
powers of attorney, enabling persons to choose assig-
nees, would not empower them to vote on that question.

COVENT G A RDEN THEATRE.

A new Play, in five acts, founded on the novel of Wiedstisch, was
produced on Saturday night at this Theatre. The characters and
incidents are, for the aloft part, those of the novel; and with respect
the dialogue and language the adapter has drawn largely from the
stories of the original. The meat effective scene, and the situation
which principally rivets attention in Woodaark, is that in the fourth
set, Inhere Cheeks, in order to prevent a breach between Alice and
her salter Markham, discloses his name and rank, and places bins-
*elf at the mercy 4-idle latter.
_ _

Mr. Waana played the crafty Crease/14 bet not with his usual
talent. renames Sir Henry Lee had many good points in it. The
best performed characters were Kaosst.a's Loads Zersegisy, and Wild
rake, by Joan. The latter performer was admirable throughout. Mr.
COOPER played MarMous Byword with gdod sense and judgment.—
Mr. Smut acted Oboe! Athol Lee with tare and propriety, and
BLANCHARD had the ungracious task of giving a shadow to Trusty:
Tonkin& Mrs. Caterray-ay made little of dike, and Miss Jones
bad little to make of Plassibe lfavtower.
The Play was received favourably throughout, and at the con-
cludon Announced for repetion amid general applause.

THE PARK AND THE GARDENS.

Hyde Park, yesterday, exhibited almost as great a display of
fashion as evert a positive proof that the-town has lost none of its
attractions as yet. Indeed, we seldom recollect a season when such
a perpetual rouLd of amusements have been kept up from the first
week in February until the middle of July, with such spirit. As to
equipages, we have no recollection of seeing more spienad displays ;
and among the charioteers, With four in hand, a /a mail coach, they
have been innumerable. The favourite colour fur the vis a via has
been dark blue ; greens and blacks for landaus and lastaulets ; all
mounted with the new yellow metal.
In Kensington Gardens, at five o'clock, there were present the
leaders in high life ; the promenade was confined to the long walk.
In the costume is a new hat or bonnet a fe Flan; it is made of
rose colour silk, trimmed with lace, which falls down on the face,
making a kind of deed-veil.

''HR ITALIAS OPERA.

The Opera of Medea *as repeated on Sattirciay night
to a crowded House. Madame PArra has not reco-
vered her finest state of voice, but her splendid acting
again produced the deepest effect upon her audience:
Daring the performance of the Ballet, a fire broke
nut in a home so near to the Theatre that the glare of
the illuminated sky was distinctly seen through the win-
dows of the gallery. The people rose from their seats,
and manifested some alarm, until the cause and its dis-
tance were ascertained. The fire continued to burn
with much fury after the breaking up of the Opera, and
the noise and confusion of the mob, with the playing of
the engines, added to the usual bustle of getting up the
carriages, ell vividly Illuminated by the flamer, pre-
sented a most singular and imposing effect.
In the brilliant circle we noticed—
The Duchess of Rent; Princess &orlon; Prince and Primes,
Esterbasy ; Dukes of Somerset and Bedford ; Marquises of Wor-
cester, Aylesbury, Hatton', Londonderry, and Salisbury ; Mar-
chioness of Worcester; Earls Tullamono, Hardwick, Bristol, Clare,

" Ward and I had no dispute at an about money. The fart is,
that we tried which was the best with the elves, as it it 1136 by
consent. Who had the best of it, I shall feel obliged e. any et the
company that was present to state; and as time were many sport-
ing me:: there, L have no doubt they will feel plearam in relating
the affair as it happened. Ward never bit me down—neither did be
beat me. It is my opinion, and that of my friends, that he cannot
beat me at all; and also when we left off that night, be was snore
distressed than myself. To do away with all 'chaffing on the sub-
ject, it is my intention of again entering the Ring with hips a and
then the public will have an opportunity of judging fur themselves
which is the best man. " P. SA UPSON."
