LEEDS . THE SUSPICIOUS POISONING CASK ADJOURNED INqUBST .
The adjourned inquest on Sarah Sohoies , the particulars of whose death we detailed last week , was resumed at the Court House , before Joba Blackburn , Esq ., on Thursday evening . The following additional evidence was adduced : — Jane Tug wood , next door f neighbour to the deceased , dt posed that she saw her at her own house , in Baxstow-street , on the day of her death , about twenty minutes before twelve , and again about ten minutes before one . Joseph Adams , a nephew of Scholes ' s , deposed to the fact of Scholes having poisoned a dog , some time ago , with prussic acid , and also to his having seen him break the bottle in which the prussio acid had been contained .
Policeman Spiers said he had been to every druggist ' s shop in Leed ? , and to some in Holbeck , and had been unable to discover that any of them had sold any prussic acid to toe deceased . A person answering her description had called at Mr . Harvey ' s , in Briggate , on the Monday previous to Mrs . Scholes ' s death , and asked for some prussic acid , which she said she wanted for medicinal purposes . Mr . Harvey said he did not keep it , and ihe woman then went away . The Coroner after this said it was extremely improbable that any other evidence would be forthcoming , and after commenting on toe conduct of
Scholes , explained the evidence as it bore upon the case . The Jury retired for a short time , and on their return found a verdiet of" Died from taking Prussic acid , but bow or by whom administered there is no evidence to show . " The Jury also accompanied their verdict frith a request to the Coroner , that he should censure Joseph Scholes and Margaret Dowie in the strongest terms that language would admit of . These parties were called in and received a censure accordingly , the Coroner remarking to Scboles that though not legally , he was nevertheless morally guilty of the death of his wife , and he was sorry to Bay that he was a disgrace to manhood .
. Wabehopse Breaking . —On Friday ( yesterday ) a man named Wm . Jackson , was committed for trial by the magistrates at the Court House for having on Thursday night broken into the warehouse of Messrs . Sch&nok , Souchay , and Co , Wellington-street .

Death by Bcbking . —On Thursday , an inquest was held at the Black Boll Inn , Woodhouse , before John Blackburn , Esq ., on the body of Thomas Waite , six years old , who , on Wednesday morning , got out of bed about half-past six o ' clock , went down stairs in his night clothes , and set himself on fire with a lucifer match . He died the same day . Verdict— "Accidental Death . "

Another Dbstrpctiye Fire at Liverpool . —On Thursday morning , about six o ' clock , it was discovered that the tar and rosin-works of Messrs . Platt and Son , at the south end of Liverpool , were on fire . These works are very extensive , and have fronts to four streets , namely , Parliament , Greenland , New-hall , and Jamaica streets . They occupy a space of nearly 700 square yards . The tar and rosin-works are in the centre , and front to Parliament and Greenland streets . At each end are ranges of lofiy warehouses , one range fronting Jamaica , the other Newhall-street , and are generally filled with general merchandise . The fire , from the extremely combustible nature of the materials on the works , soon got
head , defying all the exertions of the fire-police , under the able management of Mr . Whitty , as well as of the West of England engine , under the direction of Mr . Whitehonse , not merely to subside , but even to arrest its destructive progress . The state of the wind greatly contributed to fan and to spread the flames . There was a strong bree za from the southeast , which , blowing right across the river , carried the flames in a body from the tar aLd rosin works to the range of warehouses at the east end , while the intense heat fired those at the west end . The result was that by eight o ' clock the whole was one mass of ruin . Meanwhile , the dwelling-houses on all sides of the burning pile were exposed to imminent danger , from the direct flames in one direction , and from the intense heat in every other . The neighbourhood is densely inhabited , and the alarm of
the inhabitants was great . While they were removing their fnrniture , the fire-police , despairing of arresting the career of the fire in the tar and rosin works , played on the houses . The whole of those in Nev-hall-street were , however , utterly destroyed , and others in Greenland-street were seriously damaged . A school belonging to the congregation of Great George-street Chapel was held in the lower room of one of the warehouses in Greenland-street , and was , of course , consumed , with all its books and furniture . The fire was , it appears , caused by boiling of turpentine early in the morning . Two meu in one of the warehouses escaped from burning by descending , the stairs being on fire , by the jigger-rope . No estimate has as yet been formed of the property destroyed by this conflagration . The warehouses contained wheat , flour , and cotton .

^_ SADDLEWOBTH . DEATH FROM WANT AND STARVATION . Considerable excitement has been created in the parish of Saddleworth during the last eight or ten days , owing to the following circumstances : —On Friday week a » the R « v . Thomas Sturgis Mills , county magistrate , and one of the Deputy Lieutenants for the West Riding ot the County of York , was returning from Oldham to his own residence at Dobcross , he was stopped near Waterhead Mill , by some females who informed him that a Lucy Millingwood , an out-door pauper of the townBhip of Scotland , had been delivered of an illegitimate child at the Tillage of Waterhead Mill , and that Bhe was then in dying circumstances owing to neglect and want of the common necessaries of lire ; which inforzsatian , on enquiry , was found to be too correct , and the unfortunate woman expiredon Sunday morning last .

orders for an inquest to be held to enquire into the cause of the unfortunate woman ' s death . Waterhead Mill 13 a small village on the borders of the counties of Lancaster and the West Riding of Yorkshire , about two miles from Oldham and eighteen from Huddersfield ; a considerable portion of it being in Lancashire , and only a small section in Yorkshire . The unfortunate woman , when Hy ing , resided in that part which is in Yorkshire , in the division of Quickmere , in the parish of Saddlewoith . The inquest was held before George Dyson , gentleman , coroner for Halifax , and a very respectable jury , at the house of Mr . Robert Tweedale , the Gardeners' Arms , Waterhead Mill , on Monday evening last . ; The first witness examined was Thomas Bradsnaw , an old man . 77 Years of ace . father of the deceased .
He Btated bis daughter was delmred on the' 1 st day of October ; they had no dootor , but they got a woman to attend her at the time of delivery . She only visited her once lifter . His daughter got through the trying time as well as could be expected , and for a week seemed to be reoovering . After then , Bhe was attacked with dropsy * -and suffered very much . The witness then waited on the relieving officer , and begged of him to order a doctor to attend his daughter , but he refcsed . He then wished him to take her into the workhouse , and this also he refused to do , except they would bring her to the workhouse without any expense to the town . The overseer gave him a recommendation to the dispensary ( at Rochdale ) , but the
medical offioers refused to prescribe for her , without seeing her . One of them went to the overseer to see if he would pay them for a medical visit , but the overseer refused to do this , and the officer returned to the witness , and told him that &b the overseer would not pay for a visit they could hot attend . He said if hia daughter had not some medicine from somewhere , she would die . The Doctor replied , " SHE MIGHT DIE , FOR IT WAS NOTHING TO HIM I !! " Witness , nexfc applied to the Seleot Vestry , ( or Board of Guardians . ) then sitting in Rochdale , telling the state of his
daughter , and they gave him TWO SHILLINGS to remove her to the workhouse with . He next applied to the Guardian of Saddleworth , who wrote to the overseer of Spotland , and advised the old man to get a medical certificate , stating the situation of his daughter . He did so . Mr . Leach , surgeon , granted the required certificate . He presented the same to the overseer , or relieving officer , but still was treated with contempt . In answer to questions by the jury , he stated that they had is . per week allowed from the parish , and had to go to Rochdale , ( seven milea ) every week , tor the same .
Mr . Leach , surgeon was next examined . He stated that he had called upon the deceased about a month after her delivery , and gave her some medicine , and that under his treatment she recovered a little . He asked the family to get him a parish order say ing he could not continue to attend her without some small remuneration ; they promised to do so , and acquaint him with the result . He did not hear from them again till about ten days before her death , when he waa presented with an order from the relieving officer of the parish of Saddleworth to attend her ; he again attended her and found that she was considerably worse than when he was called in the first time , and in a few days alter she was a corpse . Mr . Leach then said , " the house was so bad , bo filthy , so low , and so damp , that I think , however medically attended , if she had not had a nurse to
clean away th « filth from the floor , and clean her person , she would not have recovered . 1 think her decease was muoh accelerated for want of medical attendance . I made a post morietn examination of the body , and found the liver very much enlarged , and interspersed with tubercles . The right lung was also extensively diseased and interspersed with tubercles . Considerable adhesion had taken place against the ribs . The abdomen contained about two gallons of water , and the chest about two quarts . I should say the remote cause of death was inflimation of the right lung . The proximate cause , consumption , owing to damp house , bad air , filth , and insufficient nourishment . If she had been in a more comfortable bed , a good dry house , snd properly attended , death would have been ( most probably ) a considerable time prevented . "
Ann Hendriok , sister of deceased , was next examined—I stopped Mr . Mills last Friday night but one , as he was returning from Oldham , described the situation of my Bister , and begged of him to interfere in her behalf . I took the child to its father to try to get some relief from him , but could not succeed . I then sent to Rochdale ; the committee were not sitting at Rochdale ; they were that day at Bacup . I called on . one of the overseers , I do not know his name , —it is Edmund —— , I do not know what—and begged of him to take the child into the workhouse . He recommended me to another overseer , a Mr . Whittaker ; but would not have anything to do with the child . I went to Whittaker ; he also refused to take the child into the workhouse , and I had to bring it home with me again . I went again last Wednesday , and took the child with me to Mr . Stott , the overseer of Spotland ;
Mr . Stott took the child into the workhouse , and gave me a note to Mr . Platt , telling him to treat the case as one of bis own parish . Mr . Wrigley , Chief Constable of Saddleworth , sworn , —On Saturday , the 10 th instant . Mr . Mills requested me to wait on Mr . Platt , saying that an application had been made to him respecting a poor woman at Waterhead Mill , said to be dying through neglect , and that I was to say that he ( ttr . Mills ) would remain at homo t ill five o clock , and if he ( Mr . Platt ) would get another magistrate , he would then take his cierk , and would go to Waterhead Mill , to take the woman ' s deposition . I taw Mr . Platt , and delivered the message ; he did not know whether he could wait on Mr . Mills or not , but would Bee , saying he had several parties to see at home , some by appointments ; that he had given an order for a doctor to attend the woman .
James Garlick , constable , Waterbead Mill . —Last Monday , Mr . Mills called upon me , and wished me to see Lucy Milhngwood , and report her state to him atDobcross the day following . I called and found her in bed in a very distressed state ; she appeared very dropsical . Her skin Seemed ready to burst . The house floor was in a bad state . I think there was sufficient clothes on the bed to keep her warm . She did not complain of being starved ; the bed clothes seemed tolerably clean . She complained of being short of food ; a child apparently about six
years old , was making some thin porridge or gruel ; but very little of it . I reported to Mr . Mills on Monday morning , the 13 th instant . He Bent me to Mr . Platt , aud told me to say to him that when he sent a message he must attend to it . Mr . Platt replied he would , so far as he thought right and just . Mr . Platt also ordered me to see four female paupers who live near , and order them to wait in rotation upon deceased , to attend to her wants , and make her as comfortable as they could . They waited on her till she died .
Jas . Stansfield . overreer of Quick Mere—I have been at the house of deceased once , perhaps three weeks since . She lay in a very miserable state in a dirty , damp place , I should say not fit for a dog to be in . 1 told Mr . Platt I thought she was not attended to as she ought to be . This would be about the seoond instant . Coroner—Did not you do anything for her ? Overseer—No . Coroner—Why not 1 [ Overseer—I do not know that I have any power to act .
Coroner—Not in cases of extreme necessity ! Overseer—No . I do not know that I have any power at all to act , even in cases of extreme NECESSITY . ' Coroner—I now tell you that you have power , and not only so , but you are responsible for not exercising that power . Overseer—I have consulted a magistrate upon the subject , and yet I believe that I havehot the power to act . Mr . Mills , a magistrate—In Saddleworth we are under a peculiar Act , 3 Goo . IV , And the Act is very dubious upon the bubjeot . I think the overseers have only power to recommend to the Guardian to relieve , but in this case , on my own authority , I ordered Mr . Stansfield to engage a nurse , and 1 would be responsible . '
Overseer—Mr . Mills , last Thursday , ordered me to engage a nurse . Coroner—Did you do so 1 i Overseer—No . I took no steps to procure one . Foreman—Mr . Platt had ordered Garlick to pro-Cure a nurse at that time , which he had done . Mr . Stott , overseer of the township of Spotland , sworn—Lucy Millingwood has been a long time a pauper of our township . In August 1838 , we took her and one child into the workhouse , the child Was about three years old , her only child . On the 15 th of May 1840 , she left the workhouse , we gave her ten shillings and allowed her one shilling per week . In October 1840 , we allowed her one shilling and sixpence per week . September 1841 , we allowed
her two shillings . In August 1842 , we allowed her two shillings and sixpence ; and on the 11 th of October , four shillings per week . She was receiving pay from leaving the workhouse till the time of her death . Her father generally came for the money . We did not allow her any addition to the four shillings per week during her last sickness except ono 6 two shillings . The father has applied for a doctor several times , but I refused one . We do not allow any of our paupers a doctor . We pay a certain amount to the dispensary , and give recommendations to paupers to attend , but do not do anything elsedoctors and rents we never allow . We do not expect any other township to support oar poor . Coroner—Why did yon refuse to allow her a doctor f
Stott—Because the Board give me ordera not to provide a doctor for any pauper . Coroner—Have you a written , or a verbal order ! Stott—A verbal one . Coroner—Had you any order respecting the deceased ! Stottr-Her father frequently applied to the board , but they never gave me orders to aot differ * entlj to her than the general rule .

I remitted him the balances by post office order . Mr ; Platt , relieving officer or guardian of Saddle-Worth parish , sworn . I first relieved the deceased in February , 1841 , and discontinued in Deo . 1841 . I do not remember why we discontinued relieving her . I think a balance was due to us of betwixt three and
four pounds . I wrote to Stott ; I do not at present remember the contents of the letter , but 1 was not authorized to relieve her again , till a week before she died . In October last Lucy ' s father came to me n questing mo to write for an advance of one shilling per week of pay . I wrote to Mr , Stott , but did not receive any answer . Old firadshaw told me they . were willing to take her into the workhouse . He said she was not fit to be removed , and if she was they would not allow any thing to remove her with . I advised him to take a medical
certificate from Mr . Leach , stating her situation ; he said he would . ' I did not hear again-from them till he applied for a suspended order ; I told him he had better wait a little and I would write again to Stott , and see if he would not do something for them . I did write to Stott , and , in reply he authorized me to treat them as one of our own parish . I did hot give any relief ; none was asked . Mr ; Leaofa , reo lied—I granted a certificate stating deceased was in an unfit state to be removed , but cannot tax my memory whether it was in October , or beginning of November .
Mr . Stott , recalled— Did you receive a certificate from Mr . Leach , stating that deceased was unfit to be removed to the workhouse 11 Stott- ^ Idid . Coroner—And what did you then do 1 Stott-rl laid it before the board , and did not receive any additional orders . Coroner- ^ The certificate was laid before the vestry . ! . ¦ :. ' .

" : ¦ ¦ ' . ¦
Coroner—Then allow me to tell you , if this system goes on , you will some day moat probably find yourselves in a very awkward predicament . It certainly is the worstsystem of relieving that ever came under my notice . I have a very extensive district , aud sometimes fiad myself bound to condemn the conduct of parish officers , but this is one of the worst oases that ever came before me . I cannot help saying that it is a case of very gross neglect . The Ju'rors , after consulting together for some time , agreed to the following verdiot : — " Died by the visitation of God , accelerated by the want of earlier medical and other attendance , and the want of proper attention and sufficient nourishment ; and the Jury strongly censure the conduct of the Over-Beers and Officers of the township of Spotland , in not ascertaining the situation ot the deceased , after repeated representations .

Murder of a Wife iiy uee Husband . —A murder—the murder of a wife by her own husband—was perpetrated at Glasgow on Sunday afternoon , under the following circumstances : —Between / one and two o ' clock , a man , named Charles M Kay , who was in the employment of a ham-curer , in the city , and who resided in the house of a Mrs . Tinney , or M'Kenzie , in the Old Wynd , disagreed with his wife , and while she was standing at tho window he eeiawd a hamknife and stabbed her in the left leg , nearly at the groin . The wounded woman immediately fell on the ili > or and never spoke afterwards . Medical aid was instantly called in , but it was of no avail ; and , in tho meantime , the policeman on the 6 tation , having heard of the deed , came and apprehended M'Kay , who had not , subsequent to the commission of the horrid deed , made any attempt , to escape His ill-fated wife , who was only 27 years of ate .
died within an hour and a half afterwards . ; and when the fatal crisis was announced to the murderer ( who was then in the police office ) he was seized with the utmost horror aud remorse . Both M'Kay and his wife had been out drinking in the morning , and their quarrel , which ended in murder , was about a very trifling circumstance . M'Kay is about the same age as his victim , only 27 years old . So soon as his wit © waa reported to the authorities to be dead , the body was carried to the police office , where it lies for medical inspection . The knife with which the wound was inflicted was brought away by tho policeman . It is a butcher ' s knife much ground down , and very sharp at the point ; and it is evident from the result , that it must have divided a vital vein or artery . M'Kay was to undergo an examination before the sheriff on Monday .
Shocking Murder near Dublin . ——Dublin , Dec . 19 . —At an early hour yesterday morning , the body of a man was found in a burning lime-kiln , at Miltown , near this city The discovery was made by a boy , named Patrick Tynam , who is in the employment of a dairyman , residing near Classon ' Bbridge , at the western extremity of the village of Miltown .. He stated that he proceeded about six o'clock in the morning to the lime-kiln , which is immediately adjoining his master ' s premises , for the purpose of warming a quantity of brewer ' s wash for the cows over the fire with which it was filled . There was , at the time , no appearance of daylight , and he perceived no trace of any person near the kiln . After giving the wash to the cows , he again went out of the stables , when he immediately perceived a strong smell of burning flesh proceeding from the kiln . He says it at once occurred to him
that some of his employer ' s ducks might have fallen into the fire , and he accordingly hastened towards the door of the kiln , on opening which he was herrifled at beholding the dead body of a man , with the throat frightfully cut , stretched on the top of the burning mass . Assistance was instantly procured , and the corpse taken from the fire , in which , from its appearance , it could not have been lying many minutes . The boy asserts positively that not more than a quarter of an hour elapsed between his first and second visit to tho kiln , and in the interim he heard do noise and saw no persons passing near the place . An inquest was held this day , and the inquiry is now in progress . A man who works in a factory in the vicinity has been arrested upon suspicion . It is said that the deceased was a tailor , and that he has been recognised by some persons in that trade . - .- ¦ " . ' " ¦ : : " . .. . ¦ . • . " ' - - ; ;
I Mysterious Murder at Ilklby , —A dreadful murder was perpetrated in a field near this place on the night of Friday last . The first discovery of the matter took place in the following manner . A person named Hard wick , a house watcher , employed by Mr . Myddleton to watch his house and that of his steward , Mr . Burgess , at a liitle past twelve o ' clock on the Friday night , heard a noise which he could not liken to anything but a thumping , and a human voice crying out , 4 i Help me , " or "Help me up , " or words similar to that . When the gamekeeper and hia watchers joined him at the Lodge , some time after one o'clock , he informed them of what he had heard , and the whole of them , six in number , Went to the spot as nearly as
Hard wick could direct . After some search they found the deceased laid on his side and not quite dead . His hat was slouched over his face in such a manner as to conceal the fact that he Was at all injured , and at first they thought that he was merely intoxicated , but on removing the hat to see who it was and assist him up , one of the watchers put his hands under the head of the unfortunate man , and discovered what was his real state , by the startling and horrible circumstance , that niB fingers were instantly covered with gore , and sunk into the head ! A messenger was instantly despatched for a horse and cart to Mrs . Hawksworth's farm-house , the nearest to the place , but before it arrived , the mas , whose only motion had been tha convulsive lifting
of an arm and a leg , accompanied by deep groans , ceased to live . This being the ease , they were afraid to remove the body until they had seen a constable about the matter , and sent for one . Having got orders they removed it to llkley , n « t having up to that time recognized the features ; but on getting to the village , it was discovered to be the Body of a labourer named William Hustwiok , who resided at Beamsley , and had been at llkley the previous night , in company with a psrson named Hey , a wheelwright , also of Beamsley , and with whom he had gone home at a late period of theevenine . The first tboaght which struok those who found the body was that probably Hey also bad been murdered , and they
sent off some of their party to asoertain whether he had reached his residence or not , who , on going to his house , found that he was in bed . Some conversation passed between them in which he stated that he accompanied Hostwick on his way home as far as the lime-kilns , where the latter became stupid , or very drunk , and refusing to go any further , lay down upon the ground . He then lefe him laid , and proceeded home , which place he did not reach before two o ' clock . In consequence of this , suspicion fell upon hint , and he Was apprehended on the charge of having murdered Hostwick A stoat haBel stick , which the deceased had had with him wueu Iui seen , waa found beside hla My . within

reach of his hand , and in such a position as that no blood from his head could reach it without a change of position , and still this , on examination , proved to be covered with soft blood , and had at the end some flesh and skin and human hairs . The hat hat covered the wounds on the head , and had received the blood which flowed from them ; and when taken off , was found to have a very large quantity in it , which the keepers poured out on the ground . There was no appearance of strnggnng that coulc be di 8 OOTered , though the nature of the ground ( springy pasture land ) would tend to obliterate any effectually , in a very short time . There had not been anv draecinc of the body , but where it
had fallen in the first instance , it had laid nnti death , as the marks of blood were confined to the triangular space already spoken of . An inquest on the body was held on Monday last , before Thomas Brown , E « q ., of Skipton , at the Rose and Cr <» wn , llkley , when the gamekeepers and watchers were examined . Hey ' s clothes were also produced , and on the shirt and coat were very slight marks as of blood , but there was no direot evidence to criminate him , and the Jury returned a verdiot of" Wilful Murder against some person or persons nnknown .

HUDDERBFIELD . —Daring Robbbby . —On Snnday last , in the afternoon , a young man named Dyson , along with his wife , residing at Lindley , left home for a short time . In their absence , the house was entered and money , in paper and gold ,: taken to the amount of about £ 60 . Up to tbe present time , the depredators have eluded the vigilance of the police . . ' . - . : ¦¦ ¦ ¦ . ; : ¦ ' ¦' .. ¦ . ; . ¦ ;¦ . ¦ ¦ ¦¦ . ¦ ; ¦ .. ' :: . : : ; ¦ -: '' ¦ ¦' - ' ¦ Caution to Cart DitivERS . ~ On Tuesday last , shont four o ' clock , a cart that was loaded stood in King-street for a short time previous to starting home . The driver had occason to leave it for half a minute , not more , and iu that short time some person had successfully got away with one whole . cheeBe , which , as is usually the case , was thrown carelessly into tbe cart . Neither the cheese nor its conveyor have been heard of since . On the same evening ,
information was given to the police by a man who stated he had been robbed of his watch . He described the persons in whose company he was at the time . Towards midnight , Messrs . Danson and dough , police officers , repaired to a notorious lodging house , where they found the very men who bad committed the outrage . The men , rather than be taken , fought desperately , and , but tor the timely arrival of two of the night watch , it was thought they would have escaped . They were at length secured , and convoyed to the prison . The watch was found upon one of the prisoners . We understand the police have been very anxious to secure these men , from the fact that they were in the habit of visiting Huddersfield periodically , and during their stay robberies were always committed .
Thb Bival Fiddlers . — " Two of a Trade can nbveb Agree . "—The truth of this old adage is just now-most strikingly , exemplified in the town of Huddersfield , where there exists two societies bolh established for the avowed purpose -of producing and promoting harmony amongst the inhabitants . One of them bears the cognomen of the " Choral Society "' and the other sports the patronymic of tho "Social Harmonio Band . " The former has been in existence for the longest period , and at present holds its meetings in the Philosophical Hall ; the latter is a society formed amongst ( a few young men a few years ago , and meets for practice &c , at the Hall . of Science . Che proficiency attained by the" Harmonic Band " in the short time they have been in existence , does
them great credit , and at once bespeaks the enthusiasm with which they have been animated , and the indefaligableness with which they have applied themselves to the learning how to produce sweet and harmonic M sounds . Indeed , they have worked bo diligently , and improved so rapidly , as to become formidable rivals to the oldest established corps of musicians in the town or neighbourhood ; and this has excited the jealousy and ire of the acting Committee of the "Choral Sooiety , " who have adopted a novel and most disreputable mode of exacting revenge . It appears that there are some amoffgst the old society who have witnesssed with - pleasure
the efforts made by the members of the new one to conquer the mo 6 t difficult art of music ; and they have ( with honour to them be it spoken ) rendered assistance to them on several occasions rand latterly they have been regularly engaged by the " Harmonio Band" to aid them in their public performances . To this course we should think there could not be the slightest objection , but the " Choral Society" have found one . kThey have determined to exclude from their books - any and every musician who renders the slightest assistance to the " Harmonio Band ! They have , in fact , determined that not one of their members
shall be at liberty to accept an engagement to perform , unless he first asks leave of the u Choral Society . " And this to throw difficulties in the way of a number of young men , whose object and laudable endeavours ought to have secured for them the highest praise and the most active co-operation ! This determination on the part of the " Choral Society , " resulting , as it does , from the most paltry of all jealousies , ib discreditable to it in the highest degree . It is a crying disgrace ; and we hope the embers of it , whose right to sell their musical talent to any purchaser iB thus interfered with , will have more spirit than to Bubmit ; to Buoh mean and tyrannical dictation .
