      Statistical Society . —A meeting was held at the Trustees' Office in this town , on Monday evening week , to form * Statistical Society , at whlph a number of resabitions wereSpasged ^^ i ^ fP ^ G . Bollard , Esq ., was appointed Prefideni * ff the ensuing year .

      Rbflectioks for Soyal Fee © os the Day or the Cobonattok . —Yonr Poor Law Guardians of the Union "belonging to this neighbourhood , have had some serions conversation on the subject of building a bctt workboose for you to lire in , and a Mr . "Welch seems to have sent a report to the meeting , which was held on the 8 ta of June , with an estimate expense of one that would hold about 400 paupers , ¦ which he state * would cost about £ 5000 or little more . A very deliberate conversation ensued on this subject , in which , Mr . Pollard , one of the best supporters of the p iece-hall feed , took a very leading part , and talked about borrowing money of

      government , and the very easy manner in which it might be paid back by assessments in the space of twenty Tears , supposing the sum to be about £ 6000 , which might be required . . A number of other gentlemen also took part with l » m on the same grave subject , one of which observed , that an establishment for four hundred was too large , whilst Mr . Power , the Poor Law Commissioner observed , that if they bnilt a small one they would be likely to want another , and it was far better to build one of a g » od size . One for four hundred was not of a very extraordinary magnitude . The greater part of the metropolitan workhouses were of a greater size ; that of Mary-lebone , was for 1000 , St . Paneras , 1000 j and there was several others for 800 and 600 . That at

      Liverpool , which was not under the commissioners , was for 1800 , and was the largest in the world . You therefore , whoever you may be , that partakes of the peiee hall feed on the day of the Coronation , may for any . thing you know to the contrary , be an inmate of ooe ^ bf the aboTe described bastDes , or some newly erected one which may hereafter be -prepared lor you , and to which , in fact , you may be made contributors , even against your will in the expense of its erection . The working classes have the power to gay " thus far shalt thou go but no further ; " once bastiled and all is over , if the fiendiike act be once carried into full operation , yon may then ang yonr song of liberty as long as you like , but no one will heed you . Talk of yourraffrages , but who -sill notice you ; and ask for annual Parliaments sai they will laugh at you . The silent system may ret be established within the bastiles to make them

      more hateful to you , so that you may be compelled to leave them more readily and die outside , that your criesmay never pierce the iron hearts of your oppressors , who can live more luxnriantly out of the fifteen-pence per week that they will save by your removal . Think of the expense of that pageant which will take , place en the day of yonr feed , and which will have to be paid for out of your blood and treasure , for there is no wealth but what the labourer produces , and there i 3 no engagement into

      wiich the state may enter , whatever be the amount of the expense connected with it , but the people will have to pay the charge for fiddleing . The treat te a Coronation dinner may prove very-expensive , though it may be all given if the return expected be worth twice its value , and it bespeaks very bad taste in a nation to shout for royalty , when hundreds and thousands of subjects are pining away in wretchedness and want . Are these things so?—Corresyondent .

      Poor Law Gxtabdiaxs . — -The weekly meeting of the Board took place on Friday last , when about a dozen of the elected Guardians attended , together with two Ex O ^ Seib * , viz . J . Waterhouse , Esq . and J . IL Ralph , Esq ., being the only two who did attend out of that body . J . "Waterhouse presided in the chair , and the clerk read the minutes of the preeetung meeting , and on ? notice of marriage . Sixtytwo iron-bedsteads had been received for the workhouse , which had coSt £ 50 15 s ., so it was reported . A desultory conversation ensued , a * to the number of paupers which the Halifax , Elland , and Northojrram irorkhonses could accommodate , bnt nothing sew transpired on the snbjeet .. Then followed a long debate arising out of a proposition which had

      been made by Mr . Baxter , that no decision shonld be come to as to expending any considerable sum upon the present workhouses , or as to the erection of a new one , without the clerk giving 14 days' notice of such subject being intended . Mr . Baxter gave a pretty open allusion that there was a party amongst the Guardians who were derirous of faking the Board by surprise on this subject . This was di » . claimed by the chairman and others , as to the existence of any such party , or the intention of hurrying co lie consideration of tbesubjeet ; on which Mr . fialpk objected to Mr . B . ' s proposition , as establishing a bad precedent , for giTing some of the Guardians a sort of license to stay away from the weekly meet ings , except they had notice of some special business . Mr . R . moved an amendment to the

      effect that it was not expedient to entertain Mr . Baxter ' s motion , as it involved an imputation on the Board , to the effect , that importantobjects would be brocgbr forward , of which the Guardians in general might not be fully aware . Several Guardians pressed Mr . Baxter to withdraw his motion , but he refused , and the amendment was lost by 8 or 9 to 3 . The original motion was then carried . An application ins made by the overseers of Hipperholme , as to the retention of their workhouse , as the master had been esg&ged as one of the assistant overseers , and must enter oh his new duties on the 25 th instant , therefore , a new masteT must be engaged , or the premises given up , and the paupers remored ; it wa * Mated that they had a tenant ready , and the landlord was willing to accept him . The paupers , six

      in cumber , are to be sent to the Halifax workhouse , and the premises given up . The next object of their attention was a complaint made by Mr . Wainhouue , of the arduous duties which had to be performed by \ Mr . HIghley , assistant overseer of Halifax , who could not do his duty with respect to Skircoat without an assistant . A good deal of conversation took place on this subject , the exact result v > f which did not seem to be easily ascertained , as a number of the Guardians , wearied by the waste of time , began to divide , and take the different districts for the examination of applicants . During the proceeding * , the overseer of Vf arley made some statement with respect to removing their paupers , and giving up the workhouse , but no order was made to that effect , as the rate-payers had never been con-Eilted .

      Socialism .- —Lectures were delivered to the Soei&Um of Halifax on Sunday afternoon , by Mr . Barker , of Shelf i and on Sunday evening , by a Mr . Freeman . The members of this branch have made arrangement * for providing tea in their room for thewe of their country friends , who would otherwise be obliged to resort to a public inn ; and though Sunday **» the first time , not less than thirty sat down to « tea . —jWe are Tery sorry to learn that the subject . of Mr . Freeman ' * lectnre was most injudiciously chases . "W « can discover no connexion between

      SoeUlism and " the authenticity of the books of the Old Testament . " "We have always understood that &e social arrangement advocated by Mr .

      Thuhdeb-Storm . —During the thunder-storm , on Monday the 18 th instant , the electric fluid entered the roof of Mr . Moore ' s house , at Saville Xxreen , in tins town , and came out on the opposite jade , doing considerable damage ; it then took a direction outside the house , down the water-pipe , entered a drain at the bottonij and splintered a flag into fragments . BRI 6 HOT 3 SE . —A Sunday school was opened on Sunday lart , at this place , near Halifax . The building owes its erection principally to the instrumentality and activity of the clergyman of the village Previous to the opening , circulars were sent to the Lodges of secret orders in the-vicinity , requesting their aid and assistance J they mustered rather strong , and to their lasting honour be it known , that the sum of £ 9 12 s . 3 d . was collected on the occasion .

      BA&srsunr . Court HotrSE . —G . H . Smith , E s ^ ., surgeon , was summoned before the magistrates on "Wednesday last , charged with allowing persons to tipple in the Odd Fellows Hall , at an untimely hour of the night . This appears somewhat strange . A license was granted to a person named ^ Towers , who was appointed as servant to the order of Odd Fellows , In the capacity of innkeeper ; but who , after disposing of the stock , refused to give up the money to the managing committee . He was consequently ejected , and the house has since that ejectment , remained without a tenant . The lodgers , however , continued to hold their regular meetings at the house ; and on Monday night , while they were transacting their business , the place was entered by the constables .

      Finding no landlord , they were determined to have hold of some person , and consequently seized Mr . Smith , who is a trustee , and charged him as if he had been the landlord . After a lengthened hearing of the case it was dismissed , with an order that the Odd Fellows should pay the expenses . Several other perssns were Charged with offences against the Beer Act , the whole of which charges were dismissed ; the parties agreeing to pay the expenses . John Ingham was fined £ 5 and costs " , for an offence against the Licensed Victuallers' Act On the . breaking up of the Court , VMr . Crabtree applied to the magistrates to ascertain whether they would raise any objection to a transfer of the license , lately held by Thomas Towers , at the Odd Fellows , Anns , he ( Mr . Crabtree ) having lately taken that house . He was told that a transfer of the license

      would not be made to any one taking those premises , as the Odd Fellows was a very improper body to be allowed the privilege of such a license . The magistrates stated that the license was first granted to this house under a wrong impression . Had it been properly understood it would not have been granted " at all , and they conld only correct that error of judgment by refusing to transfer it . In further remonstrating with the magistrates , Mr . Crabtree

      stated , that these poor men had expended about £ 2 , 000 in the erection of that building ; and lie hoped they would not , by persisting in their determination , prevent them from obtaining some slight interest for their money they had thus expended . The only satisfaction that he received was , that they should have kept their money in their pockets ; that when they commenced building they had no promise of a license .

      - Sobthebn Lkiox . —The first general meeting of the Northern Union was held in Mr . Crabtree ' 5 large room . Mr . George Utley in the chair . A number of resolutions were passed , and steps taken for its future government- , and there is every reason to believe that it will prosper , as most of the parties present enrolled their names , and pledged themselves not to abate their exertions until thev have accomplished all that it promises to gain fo " r them . Some excellent speeches were made , which would have done credit to the " classical" rulers of the nation , who have such great pretensions to superior knowledge . Another meeting wa 3 held

      the same day , in the Court House , to arrange for the Coronation procession , at which about twenty persons were present ; and , from all that we can learn , it is likely that the Aristocracy will have the pleasure of parading the streets alone . "We hate been told that it is the intention of the Aristocratic party to feed the people in the marketplace , and thus to bribe them into a disposition to shout for them on that occawon . "We trust , however , that the people will understand that this feed is not given either in charity , or in honour of the Queen , but for the purpose of blinding the minds of the people to a sense of their rights . If ,

      however , we rightly understand the feelings and intelligence of the people of Barnsley , they will not be entrapped by this Coronation trick . There was a good deal of twaddle about " loyalty ; ' but only one gentleman was found to propose anv rational or useful display of their loyalty . Jlf . Micklethwaite proposed that a public Dispensary be built by subscription , to be called the " Victoria Di » pensary . " He would undertake to give land for it , and £ 20 towards the buildiDg . This was not the sort of " loyalty" - wanted , and the proposition was , accordingly , " waived , " in favour of the more ostentatious and less expensive one of a public procession and a feed .

      Burglary . —One evening last week , the home of ilr . John Hill , shopkeeper , "W ilson-piece , Barnsley , was broken into , and two flitches of bacon , ilbs . of tea , and other articles , amounting in value to about £ 20 were stolen . —| This is one out of many similar hardships arising out ol the villany of those whose duty it is to see that the town of Barnsley is lighted , watched , and paved . For many years have the inhabitants of that town been fleeced by a gang of swindlers , who rigorously enforce the rates which the law authorises them to levy lor lighting , watching , and paving the town ,

      while the town is neither lighted , watched , nor paved . The district in which this robbery was committed , is one of the largest and most densely popnlated of sdj in the town , there is -not a single gas lamp in it . I ) uring last winter the whole town of Barnsley had just five watchmen , for a population of 14 , 000 inhabitants , and the streets , for which paving rates were regularly paid by the inhabitants , were often scarcely passable on horseback ! "We do not hesitate to say that the parties who for so m » ny years have robbed the whole town , are more worthy of transportation than the petty thitves who robbed Mr . Hill ' s shop , ]

      BRADFORD . Bradford Loyai-ty . —The coronation committee met , pursuant to notice on Friday evening , at the house of Mr . John Crook , Commercial Inn ; Mr . Popplewell , in the chair . Delegates were in attendance from the following societies : the Five Mason * , Druids , Independent order of Odd Fellows , Kechabites , and from one court of the ancient order of Foresters . After a few preliminaries were gone through , Mr . Schofield , from Clayton , ( who represented the court of Foresters , ) addressed the

      meeting , in the course of which be depicted the condition of the working population of this country , and the absurdity and wickedness of coronation fooleries , while distress and poverty presented its « lf on evtry side . TheKe remarks considerably affected certain gentlemen present , who declared that the man was speaking treason , and in order to prevent their chaste ears from being stung with the sound of truth , a motion was made , seconded , and carried , that Mr . Schofield leave the room , in consequence of which the gentleman retired .

      Poor Law Amendment Act . —After all the Mercurial sophistry of failure—ridiculous failure , &c ., on this question , it appears that the people are determined to resist the law , as arrangements are in course of preparation to hold meetings in the separate townships . Those already fixtd upon as to time , are Manningham , on Monday next , at geven o ' clock in the evening , and Clayton , on the evening following at the same hour . Absconding . —James Ferguson , formerly of Bradford , was brought up , charged by the overseers

      with having left his family , four years ago , chargeable to the township of Bradford . " He acknowledged having left hit family at the time , but said he was not aware that they would become chargeable to the parish . He had been four years in Canada , and intended to have returned a year ago , to dispose of some property which had been left to him here ; but was prevented by the breaking out of the rebellion . He had now come for the purpose ; and would endeavour to satisfy the town , and take his children back with him . He was , inconsequence , allowed to go and make his arrangements with the overseers .

      Accident . —On Wednesday a very serious accident occurred to a boy named Hodgson , residing in Bowling-lane , Bradford . He was ridiDg on an ass laden with milk-cans , in " Westgate , when his leg came in contact with the wheel of a cart , and got entangled in the spokes . The injuries sustained are severe ; but it is hoped amputation will not be neces sary , and that , in process of time , the lad will be again enabled to follow his avocations . Prize Fight . —The neighbourhood of this place was oh Tuesday the scene of one of these brutal exhibitions . The parties were " Brassey , the Brad * fiord pugilist , and a man whose , name we have not been able to learn . Tiwytook the precaution to be out pf the jurisdiction of the Bradford police , or their names would hare appeared more prominently . The contest was of Bhort dnxatiop , when Brassey was Seclared the fictor .

      Lusus NATTjRiK . —On Holidayla ^ t , a ' catjbeV lon gjsg to 1 Thomas Withers ] " of Bowling , brought forth a ^ itten withL-two perfect fceadi and only one k g > vplaeed in the centre betwixt the shoulders . What renders tius production gtiU more remarkable is that the heads are separated by the entire body , one being at each end of the animal . OpERAl-iYB Consebyativbs . —The members composing ibis body of noodles received circulars last week to attend a meeting , to be held at the New Inn . The document solicited the members to be punctual in their attendance , as the meeting was of great importance , which wasupHced beyond all doubt by the secretary , making the announcement that they were in want of money .

      A Determined Breaker of the Peace . —John Kitchen , of Manningham , was brought up on Thursday last , charged by Mr . Jarratt , with wilfully throwing down an out-building , his property , on the day preceding . There waa also a second charge against him for assaulting John Hartley , in the Lower Globe Inn , on the morning of the same day . Kitchen ' s conduct was so extremely violent , that the persons first sent to apprehend him were forced to get futher aid . On returning again , they found defendant in a large chest , in the hay loft , when they placed the handcuffs upon him and

      fastened his legs with a rope ; in this state he was brought down , placed in a cart there provided ,. and brought , to the Court House , guarded by several constables , &c . ; when placed at the bar , he was found to be in a state of stupification , arising from intoxication ; he was , therefore , remanded to next day . There was an evident reluctance on the part of the complainants to give evidence against him , he was , therefore , ordered to pay expenses , and find two sureties in £ 20 each , and himself to be bound in £ 30 , to keep the peace for twelve months . It appears no one appeared inclined to become bis sureties , and he was therefore committed .

      Caution . —A woolcomber of the name of Crawley , was charged by Mr . Z . Senior , with breaking a pane of glass in his shop-window , by falling against it when in a state of intoxication . Damages 3 s . 6 d ., costs Us . Felony . — "William Robinson , who stated that he was a machine-maker , and had been in the employ « f Messrs . Hind and Atkinson , of Leeds , was brought up at the Court House , charged with having

      stolen a gown from the dwelling-house of Mra . Ann Scott , in School-street , on Saturday last . From the evidence in this case , it appeared that the prisoner , in company with two otheT lads , not in custody , contrived to get into the house during the momentary absence of Mrs . Scott , and opened the drawers , from which they took the gown then produced . The two others made their escape , but be was taken with the gown in hia possession . He did not deny the charge , and was committed to take his trial .

      Disorderly . —Mary Gilbert , from the Far Bant , Leeds , was convicted of drunkenness and disorderly conduct in-the streets , at half-past two o ' clock on the morning of Monday . She was committed for one month . Flaring up . — Joseph Hinchliff and John Hemingway , of Bradford , woolcombcrs , and Samuel Midgley , of the same place , were charged , under the Lighting and Watching Act , with taking part in a disturbance in the street on the morning of Tuesday , at halfrpast three o ' clock . The two latter were charged with attempting to pull up some stone steps befo . e a dwelling-house in School-street . Hinchliff was fined 10 s ., and the other two 20 s . 6 d . each , and expenses .

      Military Nuisance . —During the Fair , the town has been thrown into confusion by the presence of feveral recruiting parties . The usual immoral scenes attendant on these gentry have been exhibited ; such as drunkenness , profanity , &c .: this system is a disgrace to the British nation , and requires the strong expression of public opinion for its suppression . Board of Guardians . —At the meeting of the Guardians last Friday , they entered into a subscription among themselves which amounted to £ 12 . 15 s ., with which the poor persons incarcerated in the ¦ woTkbovises in the \ 3 ni 6 ii , will bave roast beef and plum-pudding to dinner on her Majesty ' s coronation dav .

      Assault . —A Hopeful Son . —Charles Bruder , the younger , was charged by his father withcornnritting a violent assault , early on Tuesday morning . It appeared that the . son went home in a state of intoxication , and after taking something to eat , he commenced an attack on the crockery ware , inwhich he was opposed by his father , who gave him a striking proof of his authority with the coal-rake . Charles the younger , however , seized a knife , and

      swore he would kill him , and drove the old man out of the house . . On this evidence the son recriminated , and it was difficult to say which watf the worse . He was ordered to find sureties for his good behaviour for twelve months : after which , the constables preferred a charge against him for gambling on Sunday last , on which he was convicted in the penalty of 3 * 4 d ., and 8 s ; costs , and in default " - ' of payment -was committed .

      Matrimonial Strife . —Joshua and John Jackson , father and son , were charged by the wife and stepmother , with an assault , on the night of Friday last . It was evident there were faults on both sides , but it was very clear that on the occision referred to , Elizabeth stepped into it . It appeared that the husband and wife have been living separate for some time , but having tasted too much of the cratur , she went not simply to see Joshua , but to enter into possession . The consequence was , she succeeded in gaining a pair of black eyes , which she wore very prominently . Joshua also came in for his share , her finger naiiB having told deeply on his face . He acknowledged that he struck her , but declared that it was in 8 elf defence , to prevent a like occurrence . They were bound over to keep the peace for twelve months .

      Anniversary Sermons . —On Tuesday last , two sermons were preached in the Wesleyan Chapel , Clayton Heights , near Bradford , by the Rev . H . Casson , of Birstal , after which collections were made for the Sunday School connected with the above place , amounting to the sum of £ 14 0 s . 0 ^ d . The above school was erected in the year 1831 , leaving a debt upon the premises of £ 117 . In the present year , 1839 , the debt is £ 50 , thus , in the short space of seven years the school has been freed of £ 67 , for which the trustees are truly thankful . —Same day , two sermons were preached in the Primitive Methodist Preaching Boom , Clayton , by the Rev . G . Lamb , of Halifax . Collections were made after each service .

      Flood . —The heavy rain on Monday last had well nigh caused as great an overflowing of the Bradford beck as we experienced in December last . We have no doubt that had the rain continued an hour longer , the water-courses would have been entirely choked up , and consequences disastrous to tho inhabitants would have again resulted . As" it was , the water overflowed the arches over the Bowling beck , covering the adjoining land : the field on the east sidie of the brook was goon under water , and the timber laid there floating about , and it was necegsary to secure some large pieces across the gateway to prevent the loss which would otherwise have been sustained ; about one o ' clock , the

      wattr attained its greatest height . It then flowed through the gateway across the Hall Ings , arid covered the low ground adjoining the New Station House ; fortunately at thisjuncture the rain abated , and the water began to subside . The arches first . 'full were those in the Hall Ings and Leeds Road ; those along the Beck were not full with one exception , when the water was at its highest , over that one behind the Rawson ' s Arms Inn , the water flowed about a foot . It is very strange that nothing as yet has been done to prevent a recurrence of the dreadful catastrophe mentioned above , when not only property , to a large amount , was lost , but also human life sacrificed .

      Bradford Poor Law Union Medical Officers . —Among the other business transacted by the Board of Guardians last Friday , the following professional gentlemen were elected medical officers for the Union , viz ., Mr . Kirby , for Bradford ; Mr . Thomas , for Horton ^ Mr . Falcon , for Pudsey ; Mr . Tolson , for Bowling ; Mr . Anningson , for Idle and Shipley ; Mr > Hemmingway , for ^ North Bierley and Wike ; Mr . Mackley , for Wilsden , Allerton , and Heaton- ; and Mr . Fawthorpe , for Thornton and Clayton . The other district was ordered to be divided and re-advertised . Cleckheaton and Hunsworth to be one , and Tong and Drighiington the other .

      Bradford Fair . —This Fair commenced on Monday last . The attendance in the former part of the day was very thin , owing to the day being excessively wet . There was a tolerable show of cows , and the fair being well stocked with present calves , they were better to buy back-end calves being scarce and in Tequest , fetched good prices ^ The show of hones was larger than on recent occasions ; but generally speaking they were of an inferior description . Some good draught horses broughthigh pr ices . The pleasure fair has been very thinly attended , owing to the wet state of the weather ; aad if we are to judge , the givers of pleasure haye had a bad speculation .

      CottON&TTON . —> On Monday evening , a public meeting of the inhabitants of Dewsbury was holden in tb . e \ New Cloth Hally to 1 consider what and whether anj demonstration should be made at theapproaching coronation . The : Constable in the chair . Mr . Rasibeck moved an adjournment to the Man and Saddle Inn . Mr . )¦ Dibb then rose and said , that the coronation of her majesty was a thing of great importance to the working classes , for should the inventors of this meeting think proper to pay for the celebration themselves , the working men , he thought , would have more sense ; than to feast on that day for one who was draining from their pockets what they out to enjoy ; and as he was confident

      that the majority of that meeting would not consent to aj celebration , and as the meeting was a " public one to determine whether there should be any celebration of her majesty that day , and in what manner it should be done ; " he therefore should move that the . business of that meeting was done there as the people had not money to spend at the Man ^ nd Saddle , Mr . George Catlow , grocer , then said that the meeting had not a right to decide the business , as that ought to be done by those who should be subscribers . A discussion now took place between Mr . Catlow and Mr . Dibb , when Mr . Marriott , the Sheriff's Officer , said that the meeting had nothing to dd with their business , for though i t

      was a public meeting , it was for a private purpose . A tumult then began , which is impossible to describe ; Mr . Benjamin Clay , woolstapler , moved that the meeting do now adjourn to this day month . Mr . Catlow then moved that the meeting do adjourn for ever . The Chairman , with some of his party , then began to leave the room , amidst great confusion , without ever putting to the meeting a motion at all . Mr . Joseph Halmshaw , sen ; ,: then said they would have another chairman ; when Mr . Joseph Clay , draper , had , the impudence to say , "If you do

      appoint another chairman , you rfiall pay twelve shillings and sixpence for the room . Several then said they would have the meeting out in front of the Hall j but the Whigs would not allow this . The working classes then adjourned to the Market-place , and from there to the Radical Association Room , where they settled their business .

Our answer to that notice is as follows . We have not the actreferred to in the notice , and we feel it hard to be required to perform gratuitous duties under acts imposing penalties , whilst sneb acts have not been delivered to ns . ' We have repeatedly declared , and are prepared to prove , that the roomin Princess-street has not been legally

      contracted for by the Guardians ; and that they refused , at their last meeting , to adjourn to that room , or to have any connexion with it . It is well known there is no ascertained fund , by which ~ any expense incurred can be discharged . The majority of Gunrdian 8 have at the lour meetings held this year , been denied the enjoyment of thqr riglits < as » et forth in the . law called the Poor Law Amendment Act , and the Commissioners' Rules . Wherein we shall be showed that we have acted contrary to law , or the Commissioners'Rules , we will yield , " but we cannot submit to see the law and the

      Thundeii Storm . —During the storm of thunder and lightning on Monday last , which passed over HuddersfieM , a valuable horse belonging to Mr . Cockhill , of Dalton , was struck dead in the field by the lightning . A New Method of Buying Cloth . —The following novel * , mode of buying cloth was practised in the Huddersfteld Cloth Hall , on Tuesday , the 20 th of February last , and should the very honest merchant settle the acconnt without further delay , it is not the intention of the manufacturers further to expose him ; nor is it their intention to charge him more than they received for the fellow pieces , which n » 6 d . per yard less than his valuation , save and except interest from 1 st April . The following is a verbatim Copy of a letter sent by the honest merchant to the manufacturer : —

      To-T- , ; . ,. ¦ ¦ .. ¦ . " . •¦ ¦ . ¦¦ Sir , — l write to inform you that I tooke a blue narrow piece of yours last Tuesday from your window in the cloth hall ; there was ; no one in , it was just the colour I had an order for ; I had aim to seen you in the afternoon , to pay you for it , but I could not find you . I should not have wrote you but I shall not be at Huddersfield next Tuesday . I ham going into the Country , and it will be nve weeks before I shall be back . I think it is worth 4 s . b'd . a yard . I hopet you will not think it hard at me taking the piece , but I vrill not -meet with it no where else . I did not know whose it was , but I enquire the number of the window , and they told me it was yours , but you shall have your money for it when I come back . " 1 remain , —

      -r-Coronation Day at Huddersfield . —We understand the labouring population ol the Huddersfield district , intend to meet in the Marketrplace , Huddersfield , on Thursday next , the day of the Coronation , ' at twelve o'clock at noon , for the purpose of agreeing to an addres * to her Majesty , and making some pithy remarks about certain gentlemen called the three Somerset-House Kings ; We fancy that the Huddersfield boys cannot rejoice under the reign of the Devil King . We leave the matter confidently in their hands , and have no doubt they will be there in great numbers to bless the Queen and curse the ^ raiVors .

      Meeting of Rate-PaVeus . —On Thursday last , a meeting of the rate-payers of the hamlet of HuddersMd , was held at the Pack Horse Inn , at 11 o'clock in the forenoon , for the purpose of taking into consideration the raising of the road , at Shore Foot , Benjamin Bfadshaw , Esq ., in the chair . Plan 3 and sections of the proposed improvements , with an estimate , showing the saving of money to the rate-yayers , were laid before the meeting , riotwithstanding which , from the hints thrown out by the agents of Sir John Ramsden , of his opposition to the improvement , it was decided that it should remain in its present dangerous statey and be merely temporarily repaired . ' ,

      ; - ' . -. ; . - ¦¦< . / KEIGHUET 7 . ; - . .. ; CoRONATiON .- ^ -On I / Vednesday last , a meeting was held in the Court-House , in this . ¦ : town , to take mto consideration , the best metos to be adopted towards honouring the Coronation . The" meeting was called by the coristebles for eleven o ' clock : but it waa ntarly twelve before any : 6 f the respectables , who had originated the meeting , came . At length , however , about a dozen having made their appearaBce , Mr . Joseph Crayen took the chairj stating , thatat the request of afew ^ individuals , they , the constables , had called the meeting to consider in what manrier they should observe the Coronation day . With respect to himsieif and his brother they were going to let tjjeir vvork j ^ op le have holiday and to treat them with a ttsa feast . He , however , could

      not tell what the other masters were going to do ; He would now sit down and hear what the other jeritlemen had to propose , F . Greenwood , Esq ., here entered the room , and being made acquainted with the business of the meeting , stated that he was opposed to any ; procession , illumination , ; or any other thing of that sort ; and further stated , that , he was going to treat his workpeople ia the manner Mr . Craven had mentioned ; he should , therefore , suggest that the other masters be requested to adopt the * same plan . A resolution , containing the foregoing suggestion 8 j was accordingly | drawn up and submitted to the meeting . The Chairman then enquired if any person had an amendment to

      propose , when Mr . Joseph Firth said , that if the originators of the present meeting had proposed to make an expensive display of loyalty at the approaching coronation , he should certainly have opposed them , having a resolution in his hand for that purpose ; as there , however , appeared to be a similarity of feeling ie should content himself with stating the resolution , which was " That this meeting cannot take any part in festivity on the approaching Coronation , whilst so many of the labouring class are suffering such unexampled privations through low wages and want of employment . But more especially whilst a law is at present in existence ,

      sanctioned by the predecessor of the Queen , intended to degrade the poor of this country , by shutting them up in bastiles and making their condition in all other respects worse than that of felons ; that instead , therefore , of a foolish display of loyalty by either a public dinner or procession , a subscription be entered into towards relieving the poor who are starving through want , in . our own neighbourhood ; this being , in our opinion , the more rational way of manifesting the loyalty of a Christian country , under present circumstances . " The suggestion of Mr . F . Greenwood was adopted and the meeting separated .

      HUXJV Death from Intoxication . —On Monday last , at the Jarrat-street Stjation-house , an inquest was held , before John Thorney , Esq ., Coroner , on the body of William Patinson , who was found dead on board a brig lying in the river Hull , on the previous day . It appeared , from the evidence , that deceased had got some liquor early on Sunday morning , and afterwards meeting with Richard Daglass arid his cousin , two casual acquaintances , they went on board a vessel belonging to North Shields , to see an acquaintance of Daglass : here they had more drink , and Patinson become so drunk that his companions laid him down to sleep on some deals , and

      covered hiin with an old sail . The cabin-boy saw him sleeping , and heard him breathe . About two o ' clock in the afternoon , the boy went to his chest to fetch some Lucifer matches ) for his master , and found that deceased had altered his position , and was laid with his face downward , and appeared to have been vomiting . On further examination , it was ascertained that he was dead . Verdict— " Died by the visitation of God . " Several of the Jury wished it to be stated in the verdict that the unfortunate man's death was caused or accelerated by taking intoxicating drink ; but the Coroner did not think the evidence sufficient to warrant them in

      doing so . The Jury humanely placed their fees in the hands of Inspector Vickerman , for the benefit of the widow . We think it right to add that this most distressing occurrence arose from the absurd and disgusting qnstom of what is called " washing a child's head . " Patinson had signed the total-abstinence pledge only a few weeks previous , and had told his friends how happy and comfortable his home had beGome . In going to the house of his brotherin-law , however , he found that a little stranger had arrived , and was invited to partake of the liquor which was made to circulate on the occasion : a little led to more , and death has been the consequence .

      Distressing Case . —During the last few days , the neighbourhood of West-street has been thrown into considerable agitation by the disappearance of a MfSk Hall , who left her husband's house on Monday morning , and was seen near the water house ; since which she has not been heard of . As she was not considered capable of taking care of herself , great fears are entertained that she has corae to some untimely end . Coronation . —Tea is to be provided for such ofthewive 8 and female relatives of the workingclasses as think propir to partake of it , in the Shsunbles , on the day of the Coronation . Funds sufficient to give a treat to the working-men eannat be obtained . So much for the sympathy of the middle classes !

      Felony in the Citadel . -Francis Builoughs , a private in the 60 th regiment of foot , was placed at the bar , charged with the following daring robbery in the barrrack , at the garrison . Sergeant James Milne , being sworn , deposed : I am a sergeant in the 60 th foot ; prisoner lives in the same room with me ; I went out last night about seven o ' clock and returned at ten . I had left a tin box locked containing a five pound note , four sovereigns , and Some silver j also , two handkerchiefs , a silk one and a cotton one , and a twopenny piece , made into a box ; my watch was on the table when I went out , at my return I found the box and watch gone ; aad

      on inquiry ' , I ascertained that the prisoner was ' not in the barracks . I then gave information to the police ; the watch and other property ( except the necklace ) found , are mine , I cannot speak to the money ; but have no doubt that it is part of my property . Sergeant Wilson stated that he found the prisoner out of the regiment at a house of ill fame , in Green-lane , with the watch round his neck , and also one of the handkerchiefs : he also found a five pound note , half-a-sovereigrt , 21 s . in silver , Is . l . Ojd . in copper , and the other things produced , including a coral neeklacfe , in the pockets of the prisoner . — Defendant , who looked any thing but a hero , declined saying anything in his defence , and was fully committed for trial .

The cause of temperance , both in the general society , and in the more particular department of Rechabitism , is progressing most delightfully in this viciiity , and the exertions of those who have so long laboured to reclaim the degraded drunkard , are crowned with abundant success . .

      Registration . —At the ensuing registration , all those who really wish to see liberty secured to this degraded land , should take care that every person who can legally claim a vote shall be put upon the roll . Let every Radical who can claim a vote remember that by doing so he is doing his part to obtain Universal Suffrage .

      HOCHDALE . Important Application . —On Monday , Mr . Stott , the assistant-overseer , for the township of Spotland , applied to the Court of Petty Sessions at Rochdale , to know what course would be best for obtaining a Rule of Court , to try affiliation cases at Salford Sessions , without employment of counsel . He brought the matter forward in accordance with a wish of the Select Vestry . Mr . Chadwick said he had been informed by a magistrate that such cases ware very often tried at Knutsford , in Cheshire , for

      instance , without the , intervention of counsel . Mr . Woods said , the application might be made xa forma pauperis . Mt . Stott asked if it conld not be done by a formal application to the Court at next Sessions . Mr . VVhitehead , the assistant overseer of Wardleworth , asked if their Worships would undertake to bring the application forward ; the expense was a great hindrance in tnese matters , and many townships had cases to decide , but were deterred . Mr . Royds , advised that the application shonld be made in form of a petition or memorial at the next Salford Sessions .

      An Outcast , — 0 n Monday ^ a young ¦ woman , with a child by her side and another in her arms , appeared before the magistrates at Rochdale , and the overseer of Spotland reminded them she was the same who came before them a week previous , having been found lying with her children in a pig sty ; the youngest child having been born in the open air , on Ashworth Moor . The overseer of Castleton stated that she slept in that township last Monday night , since which time he believed , she had been lodging in Spotland . The overseer of Spotland said she . belonged to Wardleworth , and had been some time since living in Caatletori , she was nearly starved to death , and had informed him that she set off from Blackburn without a farthing in her pocket , when

      she was taken in labour on Ashworth Moor , and gave birth to the infant in her arms . The overseer of Wardleworth denied that the woman belonged to that township . The overseer . of Castleton did not blame the authorities of Wardleworth , but the woman had like to have been lost for aD . that . Mr . Royds asked where she now lodged ? ^ Bentley , the beadle . - " any where , pig stye or any where ? " " She slept last night in Blackwater street , " The overseer of Wardleworth said if the overseer of Spotlandwonld attend their vestry and prove she belonged to them , they would take care of her . The overseer of Spotland intimated that he conld do that , but the woman should not be suffered to die in the mean time . Mr . Royds said she was badly off but not very good . The overseer said that cduld not be helped . No order was made .
