The shopkeepers too are feeling the sad effects of this depression .

ono ; a committee was appointed for the purpose of ascertaining the extent of the existing distress , and devising the means to be taken to effect an alteration of it On Wednesday evening another meetirg was held ; Messrs . Pierce , Burnett , and others spoke . Tho Committed reported that they had prepared sheets for collecting the names of trades and residences cf those out of employment ; also , the number of their families , length of time out of employment , &c . The names of about two hundred persons were attached to the sheets , from which it appeared that Boma had been even fifty weeks out of employment ; many between thirty ^ and forty ; and the average were between twenty and thirty . Deputations were then appointed to wait upon the magistrates and Board © f Guardians . On Thursday , the deputation waited upon the magistrates . None bnt Tories were on thi bench . Mr . James Hartley ,
glass manufacturer , insolently told the poor fellows that , if ae could , ho would not relieve them , because their lavgnage was intiznidst ' wg . This was a base falsehood ; they had merely stated that the law of the land ought to provide them relief , or , if it dul not , the law of nature and the law of the land would be opposed to each other . Next day ( Friday ) they waited npon the Board of Guaraiaus . There was a very full meeting , and they were received in a much moro creditable manner by the Board . The decision of the Board was that all those who required relief weTe to apply individually , they { the Board 1 would then give them employment at breaking stones , and other work , according to the number of their families ; but for single men they had no relief . Many have since bean employed in breaking stones , and at other employment , at 1 » . ner head prr day .
