BURNLEY

Severe distress likewise prevails extensively at Burnley in
Lancashire, and in the neighbouring district, owing to the
same causes as the distress at Stockport.
In this district less efficient assistance appears to have been
afforded to the settled poor from the poor-rate ' - and, more-
over, many destitute persons who had migrated thither from
other parts of the country have been deterred from applying
for parochial relief by the fear of removal, in consequence of
thus becoming chargeable.
The funds provided by the law for the relief of ordinary
destitution in England, however ample they may be, can
scarcely be expected to suffice in the depressed state of Stock-
port and Burnley, inasmuch as the resources of the rate-
payers themselves are diminished in nearly the same pro-
portion in which the demands of the working-classes upon
those resources are increased.

THE SCRIPTURAL ARGUMENTfor EPISCOPACY;
including the Substance of a Lecture delivered in St.

PAISLEY

Since the month of July in last year the labouring popu-
lation of Paisley has been suffering from distress, caused by
the stagnation of trade, and the consequent failure of a large
number of firms in that borough.

This distress continued with-great severity throughout the
winter, and the spring has not brought that increased de-
mand for goods which might have been expected.
Some of the more skilful weavers have indeed procured
employment, but a large portion of the population still re•
mains dependent on charity.
As many as 12,000 persons have been maintained for seve-
ral months from the contributions collected in England and
Scotland, and even in India.

The poor law of Scotland, as now administered, confers no
effectual right to relief upon men who are able to work, or
upon their families ; at present, therefore, the legal provision
for the relief of the destitute in Scotland is not applicable to
this class of persons, and even if it had been so applicable,
the pressure of so large a number of men without work must
soon have absorbed a considerable proportion of the property
in the borough.

The subscriptions raised in this country, in the county of
Renfrew, the city of Edinburgh, and other parts of Scotland,
are all expended.
Thus no legal mode of effectually relieving this mass of
destitution exists, and the charitable feelings of those con-
nected with the place have been taxed to the utmost.

It may be added that these sufferings have for the most part
fallen on a class of workmen whose general earnings, even
in prosperous times, are insufficient to allow of any provision
for future difficulties, and that they have been borne with
patience and fortitude.

eIMIDDLE WOOD begs to inform his Friends and the
• Public he will during the present season be supplied
with the choicest Dessert Fruits. His Pines, Grapes, &c.
are supplied by some of the best growers in the kingdom.
His Shaddocks and Forbidden Fruit are selected from the
same gardens as those he had the honour to supply her Ma-
jesty the Queen with, and now in great perfection. This
Fruit is a good substitute for Peach Ice, being equally cool
and grateful, and more nutritious than any other Fruit : is
particularly recommended to invalids. Preserved Ginger,
Limes, Tamarinds, Marmalades, &c. Pickles and Sauces in
great variety.

VEGETABLE OIL SOAP.
J. M. begs respectfully to recommend to Ladies and Gen-
tlemen visiting watering places or travelling this emolient
Soap. It renders the hardest water soft, and makes the skin
white, soft, and healthy ; eradicates roughness and redness ;
and will preserve the complexion in any climate. The great
objection to soap is its corrosive properties. The Vegetable
Oil Soap is not only free from those properties but highly
nutritious—is an invaluable acquisition at the toilet and in
the nursery. It preserves the delicate texture of the skin,
and its use is highly recommended. And to gentlemen to
shave, who have a tender or irritable skin, it is invaluable.
J. M. is indebted to Admiral Murray for the following testi-
monial :—" ith January, 1821. A. M. can, from his own
experience for three or four years, testify that the Vegetable
Soap is the best he ever used in shaving; also for chapped
hands it is truly valuable."
The gennine BOTANIC OIL has an equal claim to pa-
tronage. Its utility has never been equalled, in renovating
and producing a luxuriant growth of Hair. The testimonials
are too numerous for an advertisement. In addition to which,
the Proprietor begs to observe, during more than twenty
years' use, his hair has not suffered the least decline. The
best proof the public can have of the superior properties of
the above articles, is the use of a single package, as a com-
parison with other articles.

PAISLEY

Since the month of July in last year the labouring popu-
lation of Paisley has been suffering from distress, caused by
the stagnation of trade, and the consequent failure of a large
number of firms in that borough.
This distress continued with great severity throughout the
winter, and the spring has not brought that increased de-
mand for goods which might have been expected.
Some of the more skilful weavers have indeed procured
employment, but a large portion of the population still re-
mains dependent on charity.
As many as 12,000 persons have been maintained for seve-
ral months from the contributions collected in England and
Scotland, and even in India.

The poor law of Scotland, as now administered, confers no
effectual right to relief upon men who are able to work, or
upon their families ; at present, therefore, the legal provision
for the relief of the destitute in Scotland is not applicable to
this class of persons, and even if it had been so applicable,
the pressure of so large a number of men without work must
soon have absorbed a considerable proportion of the property
in the borough.

The subscriptions raised in this country, in the county of
Renfrew, the city of Edinburgh, and other parts of Scotland,
are all expended.
Thus no legal mode of effectually relieving this mass of
destitution exists, and the charitable feelings of those con-
nected with the place have been taxed to the utmost.
It may be added that these sufferings have for the most part
fallen on a class of workmen whose general earnings, even
in prosperous times, are insufficient to allow of any provision
for future difficulties, and that they have been borne with
patience and fortitude.
