A resolution was passed by a numerous bench of 
magistrates, assembled at the late General Quarter 
Sessions, held at Knutsford, expressing a decided 
opinion that it would be extremely desirable for 
the county of Chester to be included in the cir-. 
cuits of the judges of Westminster Hall, provided 
that such arrangement would not interfere, in 
other respects, with the constitution of the Pala- 
tine Courts, which have some advantages of im- 
portance to the county. 
At a meeting of the broad silk weayers of Mac- 
clesfield, held November 3, it was resolved, “ That 
the distressed situation of the silk weayers of 
Macclestield, in consequence of the gradually in- 
creasing importations of foreign wought silks, 
renders it necessary that their embarrassed state 
should be faithfully represented to the Board of 
Trade—That the direct tendency of the present 
Free Trade System is to reduce the wages of la- 
bour, and support the price of the necessaries of 
life ; ard under this pernicious system, the wages 
of the silk weavers of Macclestield have been re- 
duced 40 to 50 per cent., thus introducing want 
and misery even when in full employment, and 
deteriorating the condition of the labouring poor 
without receiving any eqnivalent from foreigners 
in return.—And that a memorial, founded upon 
the foregoing resolution, be sent immediately to 
the Board of Trade, praying that the Honourable 
Board would immediately recommend to his Ma- 
jesty’s Ministers to abandon the present ruinous 
measures, and adopt the long-tried and better 
known system of prohibition, uuder which the 
silk trade flourished so many years.”

At a meeting held at Halesworth for the pur- 
pose of forming an association for the protection 
of property and prosecution of thieves, Lord 
Huntingtield, in the chair, said, “I do not see how 
a labourer, his wife, and three children, can liye 
on 10s. a week, especially considering the price of 
provisions. The state of parts of the agricultural 
population is deplorable, and the fields are crowded 
not only by our own parishioners, but by those of 
other parishes, for gleaning, which will force the 
complete suppression of the custom.” <A series of 
resolutions were passed for an association, but 
none of the money allowed for prosecutions founded 
on the Game Laws! 
At the sessions lield lately for Norfolk, a mo-

The numbers of Salmon taken from the Wye, © 
in the neighbourhood of Hay, Builth, and Rha- 
yader, this year, have greatly exceeded the qnan- 
tity taken in any preceding season for the last 
twenty years, and if is conceived (the obstruction 
of the new weir being removed) that if effectual 
measures were adopted to prevent the highly de- 
structive system of spearing the old salmon when 
imthe act of spawning, which at this time of the 
year jis but too prevalent, not only in the Wye, 
but also in its tributary streams, there is little 
doubt that those rivers would again afford a plen~ 
tiful supply of that delicious fish.
