Employment of Paupers, Mr. Hiforoft said 'he observed that there wore a number of paupers employed by the trustees of Great Bolton, for which the guardians received nothing, nor was that tax acknowledged in the accpunt of tue trustees, now, ins opinion, when paupers were allowed to work either for the trustees or any other party, that work ought to be paid for.

He would, therefore; move that in future no. pauper be allowed to go out to work except his. labour be paid for. Mr, John Green aaid that in Bolton they were set to work on tlie high roads, and were paid according to what they did, out of the highway-rate. Mr.

Entwistle said it had also been his opinion that pauper nioour on. tne. roact suotuu paid lor trom the tiighway-rate. His chief objection was, that when persons were -working for themselves, they should not be' put down as paupers. He found, however, that there was very great difficulty in doing this.

Flitcroft; It ought to be, but it is doubtful whether it is or not. Mr. Nicholson said when the improvements at the workhouse were completed, would then be enabled to find employment themselves. At present, however, they couhl make no improvement; for the small benelit that accrued from pauper labour Was now obtained by the rateyayers. Mr.

Pigott said he once brought this subject before' tlie board, as Mr. I'litcrot't had done. It was opinion, that the trustees ought to give credit for the labour of the paupers, though be quite agreed with other gentlemen, that it. would make no difference so fur as the ratepayers were concerned. Mr.

Hitcroft's moUon not being seconded, it fell, to the ground. Taskmaster for the Workhouse. Mr. Nicholson said-be was-quite of opinion that, ns far as possible, the paupers, should be employed at the workhouse, where a proper test could be applied. "Now, for this purpose, they must have a taskmaster; and as mere wus sun ante person, who now took cave of the board rooms, who lias a good knowledge of weaving, and who, moreover, had been at sea for such persons srenerully; know more than other people he (Mr.

Nicholson would move that he be appointed' taskmaster. with a salary of 10 year and rations. Mr, Flitcroft thought it too soon to appoint a tusamasier, as. mere were nomeans, at present, of putting the people to work. The: workhouse yard, he understood, had be lowered three or four feet, and they might as well be doing that as workine for nothing for the trustees.

A whimsical little excursion we made on occasion of the anniversary of the weilrliiig-day of two of my friends. They who had often enjoyed-reading the account of John Oilpin's in America thought that now they were in England and near enough, they. would celebrate, ttjeir's. also at the "Bell at Edmonton." I'ticcomponied them, with a little foot page" to eke out the train, pretty and graceful and playful enough for the train a princess.

But our excursion turned out somewliat of a failure in an opposite way to Gilpin's. Whereas, he went too fast, we went too slow. First we took coach and went through Cheapsiile to take omnibus at (strange misnomer!) the Flower-Pot. But Gilpin could never have had his race through Gheapside as it ia in its present crowded state we were to. proceed, at a funeral pace.

We missed the omnibus, and when we took tlie next one it went with the slowness of a "family horse" iui the chaise of a New England Beacon, and, after allj only took ns half way. At the half-way house a carriage was to be sought. The ladv who let it. and all her grooms were to be allowed time to recover Jrom their consternation at so unusual a move as strangers taking carriage to dirie at the little inn at Edmonton, now a mere alehouse, before we could be allowed to proceed. lue iinelisn stand tost amaze at laiutee notions with their quick come and g6, and it is impossible to make them go anead in tue zig-zag cnain-lignttiing pain, unless you Push them.1' A.

Thomas Tad eignt years of age, stated that there is a sand mill, belonging to a man named Rigby, at the top enct of Bury-streetV Little Bolton, and on afternoon about a dozen lads, he and deceased being of the number, were playing with the mill stone by turning round the shaft; which is nsiially turned by a horse after the manner of a gin at a coal-pit each lad riding round on the shaft in his turn. The' deceased was stepping off when his trousers became entangled with a bolt, and he fell, and the inner side of the stone passed up his leg and thigh to the body, Severing the Uesh, as it proceeded, to the bone. The boy it appeared was immediately conveyed to a surgeon, and everv attention paid to him, but, after lingering in. great pain until Sunday at noon, he expired. It.was stated that the mill was fenced bff until of late, when it was deprived of its covering by cutting for the Blackburn Railway.

The jury recommended, however, that some precaution should be used to prevent a similar occurrence. A verdict of "Accidental death" was returned. Stealing Coal.

Sixgulab Choice. in a private and retired part of what' are called- Chorley Gardens, near-this town, belonging to Messrs. Crtigie aud Wilson, a robin has selected an old "egging or water can, in which to build her nest. There are seven eggs in it, which are regularly attended to in the course of incubation, proceeding in a regular manner, and it is not likely the "feathered innocents" will be disturbed, as the proprietors are careful not to make it known where they are located. A Capacious Swallow.

A short ago, Mr. of Westhoughton. wlio.has a tine duck that is rather found of being about the yard to pick up triiles, was about to eat an-egg at breakfast, laid by his favourite, and on striking oif the conical end so Us to give access to the teaspoon, lie muttered out, grumblingly, Yoan o'er beawlt it sadly." "Nowt o'th' soart," said Mrs. Piatt, it wur but on three minits, an' a duck egg should welly stond four." Duriug her replv he was endeavouring to get a portion of the yolk out, but in vain, and forthwith it appeared as a whole. Eh; my God lothee!" said he, calling to the Wife anil holding it oii his spoon, if there isn't a whole onion i'th egg." "A what A onyun! An' lieaw could it get i'th' inside This was, for a while, a puzzler, until some neighbour bethought him that the duck must have swallowed it- Last week the family had a present of a hare, which wns cleaned, and tbe refuse thrown into the yard.

Two or three mornings afterwards, Mr. Piatt was again at his favourite duck egg when there was a second disappointment.

It originally stopped, it is said, at twenty minutes past; and several of tbe inhabitants, it is said, procured the assistance of a shoemaker, who is a great churchman, to examine iuto the cause of such a disaster, when, after a careful examination, he discovered that two teeth had got out of a cog wheel. He immediately went home for a strong waxed thread, and sewed them in again, and the clock went seven minutes, aud halted at its present resting place.

Abbeabs of BASTAnny. James Russell, a weaver, was summoned for l'is. fid. arrears of bastardy, due to a young female who is blind. Since her mieforlrifaej it appeared he had got married, ami had a child of his own; and refused to maintain the other.

He was ordered to remain in custody until the following day, to try to make an arrangement, and if none cotdd be affected, lie was to stand committed for. a month. A Gak or Piciu'ocKETS. Three young men, in very genteel apparel, and who' were remanded, on Monday, were brought up on Thursday lust, ai the Borough Court, charged with attempting to pick the pockets of several persons. Jt appeared by the evidence that they were first observed eon-versing together in Beausgate, on Saturday evening, between seven and eight o'clock, by a mechanic named Kuy, who overheard one of them say, she had not ad- halfpenny in her pocket Upon this he eyed them, and concluded in his own mind they were what is called a gang of prigs.

Watching their actions, he became more convinced o'f this, as he obseved Taylor attempt to pick a woman's pocket at a butchers' stall near. He gave information to the police, who went iu search of them, but did not meet with them until towards ten o'clock that night. Before this they made an attempt at a woman's pocket near Mr. Morlev's, hatter, but were observed by -the housekeeper and routed and shortly after were seen at a sale of nots, near to Nnncy Mariison, a woman who had Os. taken out of her pocket.

Taylor, it was ascertained, lived at biiltoid but the resilience of the other two was not properly known. There was no direct proof of robbery, mid the prisoners were each committed to liitrd labour for'ono month, I.SGEB Thefts. John Saul, a man of good character, was charged at the Borough Court, on Thursday hist, with steuli.ia.a brass lock belonging to Richard Cooke. There appeared no doubt whatever but ho had bought the lock from Cooke's wife (whose husband keeps her scarce of money), and the case was dismissed, the lock being restored to Saul. Henry Williams and John Henley were brought up charged with! ealiiisr a niece of cloth from the shop of Mr.

It is related of a Bolttiiiian, that some years atco, being at a great distance from home and pennylessj he resorted to the expedient of selling some kintl ot crtistieti sott stone, as a ilea powder; and had it in packages "at tlie low charge of one penny each."

"Why," said the man, hesitatingly, "I do; not like to tell everybody for nothing but if you'll promise to keep it to yourself, 'I'll tell you." Sho' at once assented, and the man then, iu his provincial dialect, for he could no longer restrain himself, said, "Yoa muu hoppen it me aw th wi' a sma' penknife, an' crom a.bit deawn It throat, an i t'll dee in a minnit." Eh waw aw could'kill -'em as soon," said the woman, with surprise, "yoa eon just pleaos yoarsel' abeawt that," said he, cause oather 'll do," and walked, on. As wonderful an ingredient in the shape of washing and bleaching powder has been sold to a number of small shopkeepers in-this town aud neighbourhood, by a man 'named Oswald Barber, whose residence, it appears, is at Chorlton-upon-Medlock. In consequence of several complaints being made, the police, apprehended him with his "stock-in-trade" in hand; and he was brought tip for examination at tlie Borough Court, on Thursday Ann Woodhead stated that he culled at her house, and she paid him seveupence for a dozen packages, on which were printed directions for use, He also left her a bill to lint in the window, which, amonast other things, announced, "Sold here, very superior washing and cleaning powder.

Though tho sowing of spring corn has now been somo time iiuished, and farmers have for the moment compm-iuivelj little outdoor work to engage their attention, still the deliveries of grain from the growers havo not increased indeed ttlo contrary has been the case, small supplies having been brought forward at all the markets in tbe agricultural districts held during the weok. Wo can, therefore, come to 110 other conclusion l.bau that the stocks remaining iu the hands of the producers are already reduced iuto so narrow a compass as to l-ondor them indifferent about selling more -at present; for it can scarcely be supposed that tliey would allow the favourable oppoi-l unity which tho existing state of tho trade affords for realising pass, if they really were large holders.

We have ail aiong maintained that, as the spring advanced, the discovery would be made that tho crop of 1840 had been so freely drawn upon during tbe winter as to put it out of tho power of the farmers to continuo to snpplytlio markets in so liberal a munneras they bad previously dono and we ow feel more convinced tliun over that the quantity of wheat iu tbe country is much less tlmu iu usually the" case at this period of the yeur. Independent of what, has been mken nt. different times for shipment to Ireland. France, and Belgium, the consumption at home has been on un almost unpreoedentedly largo scale. It is true that wo have had a liberal importation, from Auierica and elsonhcre, but even wiili this assistance, no accumulation has taken place.

Liberal as have linen tho supplies from the growers since harvest till within tin's week or two, hardly anything has at any time been stored tbe wheat has been immediately taken ti tho mills, boon ground, and bos-gone into consumption. Not only has this thecase in regard to the homo supply, but of the immense quantity of foreign we bad in granary last autumn, not ouo-tnnth is loft; and there is, -consequently, every reason to'expect that every bushel likely tn reach us from America, the Block Sea ports. 6:0. will bo required. Tfts shortness of tlie stlppiies from the farmers is already beginning to toil un tho trade tttid though there have been few speculative purchases, the receipts havo fallen short of the demand this and prices have ris6u as well in tho agricultural districts as at tho principal consuming markets.

FoitKiox. By the Jlibtrnia steam-ship tvo hove advices frou New York of the 31st March, and accounts from other piu-ts of America of corresponding dates. The value of Ilour appears to have luctuutetlat the principal markets in accordance witb tho tone of the advices from Europe but the tendency of prices had been steadily upwards. Tlie large shipments made during winter Jnut reduced the stocks otidl the Atlnnlic ports into a very narrow compass, and, the inland navigatinn being then still closed, no supplies of oousi'ijuoucH from tbe interior had beeu received. In litis posilionof rttl'itirs holders bail raised their 7l'etBnsions.

At New York, (ienessee flour was, on tho 31st ult. held at 7 dols. 2ri 0. per barrel, and for parcels Ui arrive 7 dols.hiul been paid. The stock of limn-011 the spot was estimated at only 10,000 barrels, whilst, tbo exports the 1st to.

'iotli March had amounted to 77,810 barrels. Vessels were still mueh wanted, those in-rived out having been immediately engaged at 7s. to 7u. Od. per barrel for Hour, and Is.

lOd. to 2s. per bushel for Indian com to Liverpool, and corresponding rales to other parts of the United Kingdom. It wau estimated that three-fourths of the. expected supplies from tho interior hud been sold for delivery atdilierent periods.

In Indian corn a very large business had been done, ami within a few daya 250,000 bushels had been taken nt rates varying from Stic, to ill c. por bushel. Wbeathad come slowly to hand, and tho millers had Ulkeu oil' the. principal part of tlie supply al, hi. 35c.

to Id. 40c. per busbol. Tlie probable extent of the supplies from the interior was variou-ily' esthmteii, but it is generally iidiniUfld that, tbo quuntiiy of Hour was not likely to be so large as was at one time supposed whilst of Indian corn Iho arrivals would, it was thought, be oxoeedingly liberal. By tho tetttors received ibis week from many of he northern countries of Europe it appears that the, stocks of grain hud becoms ho far reduced us lead to lipprehen-sion as to' lhe future.

From Hamburgh wo learn that, buyers of rye bad attondod that market from tbe interior, and that pnrciitiKes hud been made at rates corresponding with 60s. per quarter Of Saalo Barley there was none remaining. every quarter having been bought send up the Elbe. The stoekfi of wheat were also very small and after tho cargoes bought: 011 French account were despatched, hardly any would, it was calculated, remain on baud. From the more distant Baltic ports the advices are less lively bnt'the chief cause of inactivity soenia to have been the want of.suituble qualities, the little wheat remaining 011 hand at Danzig, Kgiiigsberg, consisting almost wholly of inferior qualities.

This accuunts from tho-soutb of Europe are of much the same character as before, and wheat-is still relatively clearer in the Mediterranean than in this country. A considerable proportionof whatever supplies tbo BlackSeaportsmayboreafter bo ttbletoatrord is, therefore, likely to remain at. places east of Gibraltai. A letter from Naples states' that buyers from Marseilles hod purchased Barlotta Wheat at that port, deliverable in August next, at a price. equal to 50s.

por quarter fre.o ou board; but the want of supplies IikcI prevented anything of consequence tieing done for immediate delivery. Iu France the scarcity of grain beeomes moro apparent, from day to day, and there can be no doubt thit that, countrv will ha veto imiiortamueh larger quantity than yet been enabled to secure. At Paris, on Wednesday, the price of Flour advanced about 7s. fid. per sack, and Wheat was also quoted considerably higher.
