EEE 
NORTHUMBERLAND AND PDURIAM. 
HAT noble monument of humanity, the 
Lancastrian school-house, which the in- 
habitants of Newcastle have raised to the 
memory of his Majesty, and for the benefit 
of the rising generation, has been opened for 
the admission of all poor children, whose pa- 
fents cannot provide for their education. 
Already the complement which fills the 
school, amounting to 506, has nearly been 
admitted, and so numerous are the applica- 
tions, that, had the building been able to 
contain 1000 children, it would have been 
‘crowded with scholars.
