chants, Manufacturers, and Traders of Birmingham',

gest any remedy for the grievance of which they coal-
plaierl, bet they expressed their earnest hope that the
House world enter into an early, full, and solemn in-
quiry into the causes of its enigmas*. A proof of the
miserable condition in which many of the inhabitants
of Birmingham were at present placed, would be found
in the extraordinary increase of the poors' rates In
