A resoUitiou wascnfeied into at the last 

 Glouces.er Quarter-sessions, whereby the 

 ria^^istrates determined, that for tlie piii- 

 posc of finding (inplojinenl lor tlie poor 

 during the ensuing year, no meaiLs were 

 •0 advi^eable as lo hlford constant W(.rk 

 9D the highways; apermaueot adviiutage 

 %ioul(l arise lo the public at a tmall ex- 

 pe.iic<^ or local tax, and the spirit of in- 

 diistiy ojuotig tliote tvliu tua>' UUii QngUt U> 



tlieir labour, meet with its due reward.- 

 " Tlioui;li, says the editor of a provincial 

 paper, this may appear at first sight ob- 

 jectionable, as imposing new btitthena on 

 the present heavy pari>h rates, the evil 

 will be only temporary, and will in the 

 end piove the best ecouBmy." — '-Weagrce," 

 says another editor, " that on this occasiou 

 mmii is due to tlie slarviu;; people from 

 ' tlie lives and fortunes men,' who pas- 

 sionately stimulated the government to 

 brins the country into its present condi- 

 tion — but the minisieis may welt adjourn 

 the Parliament and look coolly on, if the 

 feelings of the people can be made the 

 means of voluntarily taxing themselves. 

 'J'he government and ilie war-party have , 

 great obligations to perform at this ciisis." 

 At the late Moiimoitliishiie Quarter- 

 Sessions, liild at U^k, tlie magistrates 

 agreed tn represent io the Cluiricillor of the
