'LATION RETURNS OF TUB PARISHES
IN THE CITY OF LONDON.
%The following are abstracts of the Returns made hy
the City Marshals from the Parishes in the City by di-
rections of the Act of the first year of his present Ma-
jesty, entitled "An Act for taking an Accbunt of the
Population of (treat Britain, and of the increase ordhni:
nation thereof," &c.
The creidions answered in the schednlerelative to the
oecupatrons are,—flow many families chiefly employed
in agriculture ?-2. How many families ebieffr employed
In trades, manufactures, and handicrafts?-3.110w matt,
billies not comprised in the foregoing classes ?
• There is one question—" Referring to the ottosbef of
persons in 1811, to what cause Jo you attribute at_ty re.
unarkable difference in the number at present ?" Prom
the answers made it appears that from many a the pa.
rishes no returns were made in ISI I ; thiamin? of theft
could not obtain the returns made at that period, and
consequently could make no answers to the question.
The peculiar or material answers that were made from
some parishes we have given. In other parishes the
answer is "we don't know," or "we can't tell." the
Overseer wisely answered that the Increase or population
was owing so their being 54 more inhabitants. In some
places it was found extremely difficult to obtain any ac-
curate return of their ages. On the whole it will he
found that the numbers hare increased in many parishes
considerably. In others there are many more unieloa-
bited houses than on the last return.

388, occupied by 689 families, of whom 543 are in trade,

Males : Females, 191.—T0ta1,377.
The difference in the number at present is ,
fe, he occasioned by the taking down houses to

retorn as a grievance, and as it now exists, a
that greatly impairs the trade and prosperity
parish.

occupied by, 69 families. all in trades, 18 bosses fain-
habited.—Population, sales 174, females 194.—Total
36M.

The (Imminent* this parish is attributed by the retni
to a number of the inbabilants being so reduced as
he unable to pay their taxes, and many who kept small
houses being now obliged to seek relief from charitable
societies, or obliged to hawk things about the streets.

The increase which has taken place in this parish is
attributed to the number of prisoners in the New Prison,

tion.
