the overwlielming pves«ire of distress 

 among the poor, it wa« very properl)k re- 

 solved to open a soup-sliop for their tem- 

 porary relief <laring the wjpter. iSiicU 

 local expedients may yalluite, but they 

 •annot cure. Let the >vise Act of Eliza- 

 beth for rebiiilillng and resforiiis tene- 

 ments on umall farms, be enforced or re- 

 newed, and all the difficnltios of the towns 

 will be changed into prosperity and hap- 

 piness. 



A subscription for the relief of the poor 

 has been raised at Scarborough. One 

 hundred and fifty men have been employed 

 to clear away the accumulated rubbish 

 from the harbour, by nieinis of a voluntary 

 tax imposed on themselves by the liberal 

 and opulent inhabitants.

Mr. Phillips, the Iiisli Barrister, and 

 a phenomenon of clocjuence, havivii» re- 

 cently visited Liverpool, some public-spi- 

 rited persons in that town, as a compliment 

 due to his unrivalled genius, instituted a 

 public dinner for the purpose of enteitaln- 

 iiii; him. Mr. C\sev was in the chair ; 

 and, on the health of Mr. P. bein:; ds ank, 

 he returned thanks in the followin;; inter- 

 estin^ effusion of genius and patriotism : — 



" Believe me, Plr. Chainnan, I feel too 

 sensibly the high and unmerited compli- 

 ment you have jiaid me, fo attempt any 

 other return than the simple expression of 

 my gratitude — to be just, I must be sileul ; 

 but, though the tongue is niute, my heait is 

 much more than, eloquent. The kindness 

 of fiiendshtp— the testiHioiiy of any class, 

 however humble, canies with it no trilling 

 gratification — but, s-t'angtr as I am, to be 



Bradford. — Mr. Williams, to Miss Ann' so distinguished in this great town, whose 



wealth is its least recommendation — the 

 emporium of commerce, liberality, and 

 public spirit — the birth-place of talent — 

 — the residence of integrity — the field 

 where Freedom seems to have rallied the 

 last allies of her cause, as if, wjih the noble 

 consciousness that, though Watriolisni could 

 not wreathe the lainel round her brow. 

 Genius should at least raise it over her ashes 

 — to be so distinguished, Sir, and iji sKch a 

 place, does, I confess, inspire me with a 

 vanity which even a sen>e of my uiiiuipor- 

 lance cannot entirely silence. — Indeed, 

 Sir, the ministerial critics of Liverpool 

 were-right. I have no claim lo this enthu- 

 siastic welcome. But I cannot look upon 

 this testimonial, so much as a tribute to 

 myself, as an omen to that country with 

 whose fortunes the dearest sympathies of
