The Scavengers . —3 > nnng the past winter great complaints hare been made of the dirty state of the streets . The commissioners tinder the lighting and watching art , yi vain remonstrated , through their surveyor , Mr- Bates , with the persons who had entered info -a contract to clean the streets , but they seemed to t >*™ V the job a sinecure , would not « ir . At length the commissioners ordered their clerk to commence an action against them for ¦ breach of contract , and a writ was issued against the three contractors , Matthew .

Jixti-Slatebt Meetthp . —A « very numerous £ s 3 respectable meeting was held in the Friends ' SiecdEg House , on Monday . evening to consider after lie late defeat in the House of Commons , wist measures should be adopted to accomplish the immediate abolition of Slavery in the " West Indies . Alfred Harris , Esq ., in the chair . The Rev . G . S . B : ul and Mr . Aked , the delegates to London , read a leport of the proceedings of their mission . The meeting -tra * afterwards addressed hy E . C . lister , Esq ., 5 O > ., Sevds . J . G . MialL , J . ' Aekworth , " vYiterbotizm- ( from Howarth ) J . Glyde , Messrs . J , Rands , T . Beaumont , Forbes , and a ereat number of others .
Tie address of Mr . " Wintefbotham was a severe piUEjpie against Ministers , and where he was most severe he was much applauded . Charles Harris , Esq . resi a correspondence which had passed between . izn and Lord Morpeth , in which his lordship said cat zh . e question of the immediate abolition of Slavery was considered a ministerial one , and that M * convictions coincided with his ministerial erj in opposing Sir George Strickland ' s motion . Most of the speakers seemed to indulge in the ! hope thai the prae&ial slaves would refuse to continue in SisTPry after the 1 st of August . A petition to the Hopse of Lords was agreed to , which was sisraed by K-th males and females .
. New Poor Law . —A few weeks ngo , we inserted a ¦ p-rajrraph stating that the swingein ? poor-rate rev in the course of being levied , -was attr ibutable a the introduction of the " New Poor Law . In ocr Kctemporaries various statements have appeared crarradkting thi < inference . One says that this large rate is owing to the overseers owin ' g somewhere zt-o-z £ 1000 , and it is laid so large in order to clear 2 l 5 $ amoS ^ This is not the case ; instead of the overseers being debtors , they are creditors to a larse mount , for the arrears of the outstanding rare wa _«
sere taaa snincient to pay them , and leave a balance ri their hands . In another contemporarv a letter ivpcared , agnt-o Scrutator . "' This was * the profctuon of a demi-omcial under the new law . So in was he hurried away vriih indignation and pity , isx he quite mistook the purport of our pargraph , and ire- oace considered tha : a rate is laid to cover jntpectire charges , as well as retrospective ones . Er says the expense of removals are not increased p ier the new law . Doe ? he remember the case of DsrHaston , whither a short time since a number of rasper ^ were removed at an expense of £ 30 , on aesK £ t of the operation of the law , and the Guardians f d some of them with money to come back , and z . ~ x had again to be . removed .

^» ^ fftUt : ^ 2 iLittx ^~ Tstuieevu ^ ir ^ 3 ^ ?< jm £ lidd , aBas Julia Taylor , a ^ pew * d at . Coart Honse , Wskefield , on Monday , to prefer a charge of assault against Mr . John Allen , the individual who charged Julia with making a disturbance . in Pincbeon-street , a short time ago . Mr . J . "Watson appeared for the complainant ; he admitted that his client had often been the aggressor , but in the present instance , he intended to prove that a mdst aggravated assault had been committed by the defendant . Last "Wednesday fortnight , his client followed the defendant to a privy , for reasons which she
woald explain , and it was there the assault was committed . Mrs . Oldfield stated that on the night in question , she heard a knock at the door , she opened it , and saw the defendant running away . She determined to know whether it was him © r not , and went after him with a eandle , in company with a young man named "Walker , and found the defendant in his hiding place . They waited till Mr . Allen came out , when he commenced assaulting her . At this portion of her statement , Mrs . Julia shed tears , and exclaimed— ¦ " Oh ! gentlemen , I shall never get over it . It has often been said that three men
could not get over me—but it ' s false—this man made me cry out murder three times "—By the Bench : Did the defendant strike you ?—Julia : No—he got me down aad kicked me , and "Walter was obliged to go and fetch my son for fear he should kill me . He said he would kill me , gentlemen . I have been obliged to have a surgeon . I got his bill to-day " which is 12 s . € d- —By the Bench : So you called out murder three times ?—Julia : Why , they told me I called ont three times ; I can't recollect what I did , myself . —The witness "Walker deposed to seeing Allen throw her down , and that he then went to fetch her son- —Mr . Allen theiL stated , in defence that he had never knocked at the door , that he was in the hiding place for hi 3 own convenience ,
that they burst the door upon him . He said he had summoned a person of the name of Gill to appear as a witness , but he was not forthcoming . Mr . Allen was proceeding further to defend himself , when he was ' . interrupted by Mr . Maude , who said that the Bench were quite satisfied that the assault had been committed ; he was inclined to believe that the complainant was more sinned against than sinning . " She had often been in fault , he knew , but she had often been punished . She * had several times been in prison , and a recognizance of £ 40 , which had been- entered into for her good behaviour , was estreated at Pontefract Sessions . The defendant was ordered to pay £ 5 I £ 3 to go to Juliaj besides her expenses .

HtTDDEESFlELD . Meeting of Poor Law Guardians . An extraordinary- scene occurred , at the Court House , on Monday , at the first meeting of the new Board of Guardians . The old and respectable magistrates of Huddersfield , not choosing to take any part in the proceedings , declined to attend in their Ex-Officio capacity . The new fledged "Whi glings however mustered in full strength . Two awkward recruits having been added to the squad on the previous Wednesday , they raised the respectable number of four , proceeded with the aid of the neat littleminority-Clerk to make the most of their position for the advantage of the Devil King , their master . The minority-Clerk having oracularly pronounced that the Ex-Officio ' - s were the proper ' parties to examine the certificates of the newly elected Guardians
, they proceeded forthwith to business ; one of the Starkies moving , and the otherStarkie seconding , that Mr . J . Sutcliffe , anew-fledged Ex-Officiooithe last Wednesday's ' creat ion , should take the chair pro tempore . An amendment was proposed " That Mr . Cooke do take the chair pro tempore . " To this Mr . Snteliffe had the modesty to object , that as Mr . Cooke's certificate had not vet been examined , his election might prove to be " bad , and therefore he ( Mr . C . ) could not take the chair . Mr . SuteliSe made no difficulty about taking the chair himself , without producing any certificate either of election , Ex-Officioappointment , or any other right to take part in tihe business at alL So much for the modest consistency of "Whig Baatile men ! The chair haying been assumed , one of the Starkifi « moved , and the other seconded " That all who were not
Guardians should leave the room . " The self-elected Chairman regretted exceedingly that tJus nation would have the effect of excluding all the Guardians whose certificates' were tmexamined . Whereupon file font Ex-Officios , having , by their extraordinary penetration , discovered that this would place them in a somewitat onerous position , set about , in right loyal kpitattan of the powers delegated to their three-headed monster king , to alter and rescind their own regulation : ? . The Starkies agfHB mpygd and

seconded that" all persons not cMtningtobe returned a& Gaartians should withdraw , " which was carried by &e ; Ex Officios with most laudable unanimity . Mr , Pitkethley hereupon inquired if the ExOtfipids intended to do their business privately ia a corner , which produced an indescribable ferment , throwing all the Whig bantlings into a perfect stew . It was I tono purpose , however , that the puddle stormed ; the people had made up their minds to be witnesses of whatever iniquity might be perpetrated , and , remained in the most obstinately provoking good humour ; bidding a smiling defiance to the valiant threats of the " great unpaid" to expel the intruders
Perceiving that the "' bully-front" waa no go , the " jockey cap" was put on , and the people whom they could not , and dare not , attempt to expel , were permitted to remain . The examination of-the ' . " returns . of Guardians from the various townships * as then gone into-: Mr . Sutcliffe having first assured the meeting that he merely assumed the chair for the purpose of keeping order in the meeting , until a Chairman could be regularly appointed by all the Guardians , and should take no advantage oi tiie position . Then came " the tug of war ; !) ind never was more meat * , despicable , and cowardly trickery resorted to , than was exemplified by the subsequent
proceedings of this meeting . The return for Linthwaite was double , and though Mr . Parkin had nine votes more than double the number of his opponent , and had also tie signature of the churchwarden and one overseer to his return , his return was objected to on the ground that the churchwarden had kept his somination-paper too long in his possession , notwithstanding that this objection ( if it be an objection ) would lie equally against his opponent . Mr . Pitkethley here stated that , as many persons had spoken whom they , the ExOfficios , did not admit to be Guardians , he claimed a like privilege , and informed them that the Huddersfield bench of magistrates
had decided , on the previous Tuesday , that the fact of Mr . Parkin ' s name being on the list was proof of the validity of his nomination ; in which decision Mr . Ex-Officio Brooke then concurred , though be now contended against it . The churchwarden and assistant overseer having been sent for by Mr . Parkin , proved the nomination to be correct ; but , notwithstanding all this , the little minority-Clerk refused to register Mr . Parkin ' s vote on tbe question of Chairman . The township of Huddersfield being next in order , the returns of Frederic Sehwann and Thomas Haley were objected to , and pToof on oath , was offered , that Mr . T . Shepherd
tbe overseer , had admitted that he had put down many property votes , without having any voting papers at all , which is a fatal objection . Their return was also objected to on another admission , by Mr . Shepherd , that a Toll of votes , as thick as his arm , had never been touched , —meaning that they bad not been summed up , —and , further , that many votes were added from a book , containing entries of last year ' s claims . Also on the ground , that the statement of the number of votes for each candidate was officially made on tbe 29 th , and that it was given differently on tbe ; 50 tb , without a satisfactory or justifiable reason . This case was agreed to stand
over till the next meeting ; but afterwards the Ej- Officio pro tern Chairman decided that Frederick Sehwann should vote , and he did vote for the Chairman . The Ex'Officios and their organ did not put down the name , nor take the vote , without any reason whatever of Mr . James Brooke , who wa . s legally returned for Honley , and claimed his seat also for Huddersfield ; and Mr . Dickinson was not taken down by tbe Pro-Tern . although his return was duly announced in the two "Whi g organs , —fixed as the advertising organs for the union by the former Guardians , —on the Saturday ; and the said announcement was made on the " nuthority of the
overseer , as made by him on . Thursday night , in the hearing of many rate-payers . A protest was entered against the Melthain return , but the protester , and one of the candidate * claiming to be returned , were prevented from entering the room by a posse of constables , stationed at tbe door ; and it was decided in favour-of the T-avti ' e candidate , ( if such decision is worth any thin ^ . ; In their absence , and in the face of the decision , that all disputed returns were to stand over . Kedfeni voted with the bastilei * . The return of George Croshind , for Lockwood , was objected to—First , On the ground that a double supply of papers bad \ .. . c . \ supplied to man v
rate payer * , who bad not filled thvm up correctly , and who could be persuaded to change the vote from Stocks to Crosland , &c . Second , on the ground that the overseer who is a violent partizan of Cropland , bad , along with three others who had the whole management of takingc . ; t and calling in the votiDp papers , severally canva ^ ed tbe voters before doing that office ; and that during the returning of the papers that they used aH their influence for Crosland in the v , ay and -manner described and otherwise . Third , on tbe ground that many voting not call
papers were ed for at all , and that forgery had been committed . - One paper wns produced with a vote for Mr . Stocks , which paper had never , been called on , but in = umm : T ); r v . y , a volhi * paper was seen and objected to . It j-roje-sed to be a vote for Crosland . Fourth , tb ^ t tbe overseer had paid rates due , in order to enable tbe rate-payers to vote for Cropland . Fifth , that many proxy ' votes were given without the authority of thv principals . Sixth , that property vote * were pr ; t down without any written claims . Seventh , that executors voted contrary to the-law . and that tbe whole election was : a
matter of Wnisr p ? .-tizun > hip from beginning to end , and George Cro > la-nd , with all those charges of so disgraceful and weight } - a nature , was taken down be tbe ProTau . as a pood vote . An attempt was made to prove Mr . Hurling , of Almondbury , disqualified to act , but it failed . Mr . Thrrnbar , the Guardian without opposirira . who was not in any way or manner stated to be dl-quaiified , was rejected by the bastilers on tbe grour . d that he had neglected to bring his notice from the overseer . This Guardian offered to make oath that he had been regularly returned ; that his name hr . d been posted on the church doors , that bis voting paper vras in his possessi and tnat he would
on ; produce in as short a space of time a ? it was possfbie to go to and return from his hou ? e . Mr . T . demanded to have his name inserted tinder those circumstance ? . This they refused A motion was made that William Brooke , Esq ., one of the Ex-Officio Guardians , do take the chair ; an amendment was then made that Mr . "YVm . Cooke of Huddersfield , do take the cbr . ir . A division was taken , and there were IS for each , without the Guardians for Linthwaite and Scammondcn , who were for Mr . Cooke , and who tendered their votes ; but were rejected . Mr . Sutcliffe , who , when he took the chair , agreed to be no more than another Guardian , after having voted once , pave a casting vote forMr . Brooke , though there were present a
^ majority of two for Mr . Cooke ; the same line of conduct was pursued for the vice-chairman , those in favour of the new law in the same manner putting in Mr . Moorbouse , of Holmfirth , in the place of Mr . Chadwick , of Huddersfield . A protest is in the course of signature by the Guardians , who have thus been insulted . Deducting from the 19 votes nominally given for Mr . Brooke , tbe bad votes of Thomas Brooke , of Honley , Sehwann and Haley , of Huddersfield , and Crosland of Lockwood , and adding to the . « e , one of the two votes given by the self-elected chairman , Mr . SutcMe ; and adding to the 18 votes allowed for Mr . Ccoke , the votes of Messrs . Parker and Thornbar , which are clearly " good , the numbers then stand :
For Mr . Brooke 14 For Mr . Cooke 20 Majority for Mr . Cooke , 6 And we have good reason to know that Messrs . Cooke and Chadwick are determined not to be juggled or cajoled , buthaveresolved , in defence of themselves and tbeir constituents to maintain their right to their seats as Chairman and Vice , and a majority of the Guardians are resolved to attend on Monday next to enforce that right . W € understand that Mr . Shepherd has received a protest against his return of Messrs . Sehwann and Hayley , and that a scrutiny has also been demanded on the part of Messrs . Dickinson and Brooke , and it is confidently asserted that they will both come out of it with large majorities . D
EXPENCZS OF THE GENEROUS CARE OF THE Poor Law Commissioners for the good Folks of Htjddeksfiei ^ . —At Pontefract Sessions , more than forty pounds were paid out of tbe county rates , for expenses incurred bythe Poor Law Guardians of Huddersfield , in constabulary " force for their protecpon , n their several attempts to force the Denl-King ' a law down the throats of the people .

HuDDERSEiEXib Cab ^ Sc ^ iety :- — -The quarterly-concert ,- and last for the season , was gireii by this society in the Philosophical Hall , on Fnday evening last , before a numerous and ^ respect taWe audience . Th » only instrumental piece was an overture of Kaliwoda ' ai after which was : " He layeth the beams , " which was sung in a very masterly styfe by Mt . Jackman . The rest of the solos were " Gentle Air *; " song by Mrv Starkey , with violoncello obligato by Mr . Peace * who gave vent to his fancy in a cadence which pleased the multitude extremel y wtll . « Thro' the Land" was well sung by Mins Malaes . "If guiltless blood" was sung by Mrs . Peace with much pathos and feelire
Mr . iJroadley sung " Deeper and deeper still" with his _ accustomed energy and judgment . Miss Sykes ' bhepherds view the sight , " was rewarded ¦ with a rapturous encore . But the greatest attraction of * « venin S was an unpublished anthem , composed by Mr . Jas , Battye , which is a piece of masterly ^ "ang . The anthem opens with a fugue , i ^ I was glad v' next follows a solo << For there is the seat . " which was well sung by Mr . Jackman ; the double
quartette 0 'pray for the peace , " is a fine composition , and was performed in , manner which must have been gratifying to the author ; The concluding chorus "Arise 0 Lord , " is a conception worthy of Handel or Beethoven , and went off in a most perfebt style , which .. the audience duly appreciated . Of the choruses it is impossible to speak too highly we have never to our recollection heard them performed with : such unction and energy . I he whole concluded with " God save the Queen .

The true Character of Whiggeryshown . by Bludgeoning a MaoIstiiate . — Our readers will scarcely be prepared for a fact like the following . There is one family in Huddersfield , such . out-anS-out Whigs , that Vthe present glorious Ministry have thought fit toirimst upon it that three brothers of them should »¦ doff off" their native cloggs , and , attired in silver slippers , mount the Magisterial Bench ! Mr . Thos . Starkey . Mr John Starkey , and Mr , Joseph Starkey , have all been placed upon the Queen ' s Commission ; bless her Majesty for such tripple generosity towards the noble family of the Starkeys ! Their brother ^ . William , has been left out of the Comm ' ssioh , and has determined , out of spite , to make war upon the
Bench itself . "We have a very respectable oldraagistrate in Huddersfield ¦ , calJed Joseph Armitage . Take him aHbgether r he is -a very decent fellow ; he hates the "Whigs ; that ' s well : he is opposed to the New Poor Law ; that ' s better . Mr . W . Starkey , surgeon , "Wakefield , brother of the three commissioned Starkeys of Huddersfield , has had some trifling . ' disp ' ute with Mr . Armitage about family an ° airs , andhas proved himself to be a real "Whi g , by being fonder of Wudgeons than of common law . The following is the Huddersfield report of the transaction ; it wilt , no doubt , ere long , be verified in some court of justice ' — "William , the own brother of Thomas , John , and h
JosepStarkey , met Joseph Armitape , Esq . ( who is a magistrate , and father-in-law of John Starkey , ) in Buxton Road , Huddersfield , at four o ' clock in the afternoon of Wednesday l » 3 t , and said to him ( at least so they say ) - ^ -I have come from Wakpfield on purpurpose' to give you a good thrashing . " He then ( and this is certain ) set about beating and thrashing him , and after Mr . Armitage was down on the pavement ,- h ? , the said magnanimous Whig , own brother to the three Commissioned Magisterial men , did , on the pavement , thrash , arid beat , and cudgel and brutally bludgeon the said magistrate , Joseph Armitage of respectable character ; so that medical aid was required ' and . ' physicing and bleed-¦
ing . was necessary . - Yfe know not what our Whig friends will say to this—but we opine ' that some twelve Englishmen on oath will say " that such things ought not to be endured ? " * We hope that Mr , Armitage will apply to one of the Starkey ' 3 for a warrant against their Brother William . What a butch of Scoundrels has her Majesty dignified Powek , the Lord of all the West-Riding Beiich , ( for note tbe Lord Lieutenant is nobody ) said " that in Huddersfield ^ with the exception of Armitage , we had not a magistrate worth a straw : " but now the brother
of the " new ones , " has proved that the Starkey ' s are worth a c u noel ! Oh Lord , what times are coming ! Oastler ' s boys have long wished to try cudgels with the " newBatch , " and " Powek , " and Swain " the Ludditc . And who will say , that if William Starkey has a right to " cudgel" Mr . Armitage , —the Boys are prohibited , by law , from Tarring and Feathering , —Alfred ' Power , LuDDiTii Swaix , Billy Brooke , Judas the Traitor , and Tommy and Joey Staukey ? Kot we !! So , if that be ( arc , go it , boys I—Correspondent .
BARNSLEY . Mechanics' Institute . —Mr . Moulson delivered a lecture to the members of this Institute on Tuesday evening last , on moral philosophy , and he gave great satisfaction to the meeting , which was numerously attended . He has not been long in Barnsley , but is likely to become very useful in the town . ' ¦ -... FuundDead in Bed . —An individual , whose name we could not learn , was found dead in bed in a lodging house in Newland , on Monday morning last . An inqwest was held ) on the body , on Tuesdav and a verdict returned accordingly .
^ Court House . —On Wednesday , Mr . Micklethwaite , of Ardsley , was fined £ 2 and costs , for violently abusing one of his servant girls . The young woman stated that her master , when falling out with her , took bold of her and clasped his hand around . her neck , arid nearly strangled her to death . —James WeMs was committed to Wakefield House of Correction for three months , for killing game in the ground belonging to Wentworth Castle . At the expiration of his time , he is to find two sureties in ten pounds each , and himself in twenty pounds to keep off those grounds twelvemonths .
AcciDENT . ^ -Qn Monday night , a little after dark , a person named John Smith , was riding at a roost furious rate through the streets , and putting every one in fear ; however , on turning Queen Street , when all attempts to stop him had been tried in vain , he was thrown from his horse with great force , and pitched with his head on the pavement , which was so much fractured , that he was taken boniern a state of insensibrlity . We have since heai ^ d that the unfortunate man , who was in a state of intoxication at the time when the accident happened , is sincedead ; we shall give the particulars ¦ in our next . v r
Radical Association . —The Radical Association met on Monday night , when arrarigemehts were finally made for the great meeting and dinner which will take place on Easter Tuesday . It is expected to be the greatest display of principle that has ever been in this neighbourhood .
HAWORTH . Church EATEs . ~ On Friday , the 30 th ult ., a meeting of rate-payers was holdert in the Church Sunday SchooliRopm , Haworth , for the purpose of levying a ; Church ^ rate . A rate of one penny in the pound was proptised and seconded , after which an amendment " That the meeting do adjourn for twelve months ''was also proposed and seconded . On the amendment being put , the shew of hands was so large that the original motion was abandoned . A poll was demanded which- ended in the rejection of the rate by a majorito of 97 . A scrutiny was then demanded b
y the pro-rate party , but it was s » on discovered that this would place them still further behind , and the scrutiny also was abandoned Great praise is due to the Rev ., Mr . Bronte for his very gentlemanly and cpnciliatiner demeanor throughout the whole of tb 4 s ;( necessarily to him disagreeable ) contset . The churchwardens also were very willing to effect some compromise with the ratepayers had they not been urged and . almost forced onwards by the ^ U-judged pertinacity of one or two Factory Lords , whose despotships , 1 though they refused to brook opposition , must now brook defeat with a wholesome seasoning of scorn .
Easter Dues . —We hear that the same parties who : urged on the church rate contest to their own glorious , discomfiture , have bought up the Easter Dues from the Vicar of Bradford for the purpose of ^ stringing up the Dissenters" a little more tiehtly than usual . We can tell them they had better be quiet . .

Parochial HuJi 4 NixY .- ^ On Saturday last , appucation was made to our magistrates on behatt 01 a PohshJew , who was stated to be insane in a house m Robinson | tow . The mayor said he was sorry that he had ho power in the case ; ttte parties musr apply to the workhouse , ii , which case he woulibecome chargeahle to the parish , and then tftej ( the magistrates ) would make an order on the subject . This advise was acted upon ; but the ^ go - vernor refusei to do anything , as the poor man did not belong to the parish . The lunatic was at the r £ ¦ ¦ ¦ * — *« v ¦ «*»*«* w * # rrmo at tlit ? house of
a poor woman j who could not afford to provide for him , and we believe he was turned into the street , where he was found almost naked by the police * On Monday he was brought before the bench , and as their worships thought him a dangerous person to be at large , they sent a police officer with him to the workhouse , with a request that he might be examined by the doctor , and a report made as to his case . He spoke in a wild , incoherent manner to the court , and said they had turned him out because he prayed night and morning that the Messiah would come . Mr . Parker told
him he 8 hould _ not be turned out , but have lodgings provided for 'him . He was then taken to the workhouse , but soon brought back ; and the officer stated that the governor refused to receive him . Mr . Hart , one of the attendants at the Charity Hall , said he would himself represent the case to the governor . We believe , also , that the magistrates ' clerk waited on that gentleman on Saturday on the same subject . We hare a strong suspicion that if this man does harm to himself or others , Mr . Governor Kidd will not he altogether guiltless concerning this thing .

wiiddij : ton . Anniversary ;— On Sunday last , two sermons were preached in the Providence Independent Chapel , Middleton , by the Rev . W . Blackburn , late of W .-hitby , in Yorkshire , when the sum of £ 12 . 4 s . 3 £ d ' . was collected towards liquidating a debt of £ 296 which is upon the chapel . The place was crowded to excess in the evening . Owenites . —On Tuesday evening , Mr , John Hunt , of Middleton , gave a lecture in the large room at Mr . Robert Nedbet ' sthe Temperance Hotel
, , and newsvender , on the ' formation of character , and the propriety of encouraging the doctrine of Ovtenism , as being the only way of bringing about a reform in this country . After the talented lecturer bad finished , Messrs . James Ashton and Joseph Morval opposed him , and it was agreed to meet each Tuesday evening until . they could settle the matter . It is said they are intending to form class meetings similar to those carried on by Methodists , only they are to see what progress each member makes every week hi his new doctrine of socialism .
OMOHAM . Hattixg . —The hatting trade is much worse than it was six weeks since ; hands , on an average , have not more than three or four days' work per week , while many are entirely without employment . Cotton , trade is not so good , yet the mills are still working full time . Mechanics are moderately bu * y ; there is not so much building as there was last and the previous springs . Man -Killed in a Coal-Pit . — On Thursday last , an inquest was held at the Spinners' Arms , Lower Moor , Oldam , on view of the body of a miner , who was accidentally injured in tbe pithouse ooal-pit , Greenacre ' s Moor , Oldam , on the 2 / th February last , to such a degree as to cause his death , after lingering this week . The jury returned a verdict that he had died in consequence of the earth falling upon him from the side of the shaft .
PRESTON . PiifesroN Pooh Law Gr . \ ni > UNS . —On Monday , the hr * t meeting of the Preston Guardians was holden , having been postponed from the Thursday prcvioihs , when it should have been holden , because one of the Ex-Officio ' s was engaged as Chairman of the Quarter Sessions . If the business of these Guardians' Meetings be of real importance to the country , we should be glad to know what pretext can justify the fellows who assume the title of "Gunrcians" in causing important public business to wait the convenience of an individual ? If the "Guardians '' have anything to do and if it be important mat their busmess should be done , why are persons made "Guardians" whose other avocations prevent them from discharging the duties of their "
Guardianship : ' And if the "Guardians" business Be so unimportant that it can attord to wait the pleasure of aii individual , why is the country burtheiied with the expense , and oppressed with the turmoil consequent on their annual election ? The true reason of postponement was , that the said Ex-Qffici < y , a topi of the Commissioners , might be made Chairman of the Board . Tis worthy of note too that several of the ( . uardians , who voted on Monday for the BastiW than man , are anti-churchratemeu ; though in the election for Guardians , the churchwardens declared all persons ineligible to vote , whose church-rates weTe unpaid . Consistent is the Devil in all his doings , and under whatever aspect we view this child oflus—tlie New Poor Law—Villainy and trickery are its hideous features .
ROCHDALE ! . New Jerusalem Lecture . —On Thursday evening , a Lecture was delivered in the New Jerusalem Chapel , in Rochdale , by the Rev . John Cull , of Leeds , on the signification of the New Jerusalem church , founded on the 21 st chapter of the Revelai tions .

After the service twenty persons , who had previously been made acquainted with the Doctrines of the New Church , by reading and preaching , gave in their adhesion to the society .
