A Hard Cask. James Ilockloy, Saddler, Li...
allowed an opportunity of seeking for employment at his trade . There was no law in this country that would countenance such proceedings . Mr . Stovild , the master of the workhouse , said the prisoner , during the time he had been in the house , had been allowed two days to seek for work . Mr . Paynter said two days were not sufficient . The man ought to have been allowed an opportunity every day to seek for work . Honest tradesmen were not to be treated as vagrants . He ¦ would not support the parish authorities if they followed such a system . They should obtain a mandamus from the Court of Queen ' s Bench before he would comintolerable
mit in cases of that description . It was quite that a man who was a tradesman should not be allowed an opportunity of seeking employment . He was sorry the prisoner had broken the rules of the house , as he could not say the law justified the act . The law was in a certain extent with the parish officers ; but the law was not to be carried out in cases where there were special circumstances . The present case was a special one . Ine upshot of the case was , that Mr . Paynter requested Hockley to comply with the law , and break stones for one day ; but if the guardians compelled him to break stones for more than one day , Mr . Paynter would apply to the Poor-law Commissioners .

CKNTKAL CO-OL'KRATIVK AGENCY . Mr . ( j . Dawson delivered a lecture at St . Martin ' s JIa . l , Long-acre , on Thursday , in furtherance of the principle : ; sought , to be carried out by the Cooperative Associations . The lecturer drew a vivid picture of the many disadvantages arising from the present nyatem of retail trade , and proceeded to argue that the only true remedy was to be , found in a right and timely application of capital , skill , and experience to the est > iblinhmcnt of the principle of cooperatiue agency . The objects of the associations were to counteract the practiced of adulteration and fraud now prevailing in trade ; to net as agents for tins consumers in making their purchascB , and for the produceiH in ( telling their produce ; and to find , employment for the disciplert of the cooperative . BVHtom , by the collection of orderH through a regular channel . Mr . DawBon contended that thia cooperative
agency wasdeserying of public support , because it ~" the most effectual means which ha * evetW ?* , * . *»» for giving the working classes the benefit oftlf " labour . He argued , moreover , that it wM ; mn *?•« that Christianity , ' which was so ^ h ^ auntd in this country , could be kept up arSonS ?!? people , unless a true spirit of brotherhood SSeJt bhshed upon the principle that men should lano ,, * ? gether for the general advantage of all .. After dwelUn !; with much argumentative skill upon the loss of mS sustained b y the people in their dealings with rS tradesmen , Mr . Dawson concluded a very able leotif by pointing out the numerous benefits which would » crue from cooperative establishments if properly okmI ized , and he earnestly called upon all present to sunnnr * him and the friends of these associations in the view ? Jihad taken of this important subject . y
