ANCASHIRE. 
A number of impoiitions and peculatians 
have been, for fome time raft, pra€tifed in the 
town of Manchefter, by the overfeers of the 
refpective parifhes. According to a forcible 
and well-authenticated ftatement of facts, lately 
laid before the public, it is clearly fhown that 
the parifhes there have been, in many infiances, 
moft grievoufly impofed upon; and that the 
condudt of thofe hireling o#icers towards the 
poor of that town has been egregioufly cruel 
and inhuman. This difclofure of parochial 
abufes fatisfaétorily accounts for the exorbitant 
poor-rates with which the public there have 
been burthened for fome time paft; and the 
author of the perfermance is entitled tothe bet 
thanks of his townfmen and the public, for 
the fidelity and zeal he has evinced, in tracing 
and collecting a feries of fuch atrocious barba- 
rities and impofitions of office. One great 
fource of thefe evils is attributed to the over- 
feers not keeping their accounts fairly, and not 
producing them at regular and fated periuds, for 
public infpetion. Their itatements fhould be 
‘Kept as clear as tho'e of mercantile houfes, and 
publifhed every. year ; in which cafe impofi- 
tions. would be cally detected. 
Yate, a number of refpe&able lay payers of 
Mianchefter have ex prefied their wifhes that an 
annual report of this kind might be printed : : 
this propofal, } however, for certain weighty reajins, 
Las never yet been complied with. 
~ Within the fhort {pace of a fortnight no lefs 
than eight children were burnt te death in 
Manchefter and its vieinity ; ; in moft of thefe 
cafes this difatter arofe from the children having 
been left alone. 
The Manchefter Agricultural $ Seciety have 
offered a premiunt-of five guineas, to be giver 
at their next annual meeting, for the BEST 
model of a BRICK, defined Solely fer the purpose 
of draining land, and mst applicable ta any of the 
general furfofes of building.
