      LOCSWOOD . —This town has of late been all bustle and exoitemeat , as the following will shew . Oa Thursday , the 20 th of April , a meeting of the ratepayers was held for tbe purpose of passing the accounts of the overseers of the highways , S . Hill , grocer , and James Wrigley , farmer . The accounts of Mr . Hill were not objected to , but those of Mr . Wrigley appeared to be very unsatisfactory , and a motion was made and carried that some one should go and oppose them before the magistrates . This was done , and the magistrates refused to sign them , and , consequently , another meeting was held , w hen a committee was appointed for the purpose of examining his books , and on Friday last » further meeting was held for the purpose of hearing the result of the

      committee ' s investigation , of which the following is an outline . Mr . T . Crossland , manufacturer , was called to the chair . Mr . Crossland read over the report of the committee ' s investigation , from which it appeared that on looking orer the books of Mr . Wrigley they found aD eutry of William Making breaking fifty-four loads of stones , and on being examined , he declared he had only broken eighteen . There was also an account of fourteen days' work to William Making , and he declared he had neither worked a day nor received a days' wage . John Wrigley , uncle to the surveyor , is stated as having

      maae lull time during the whole year , with the exception of fourteen days , and during those fourteen days he contracted for and broke twenty loads of stonas at sixpence per load . Other Bums equally erroneous wtre discovered ; Before the latter meeting Mr . Wrigley waited on the committee and offered to throw off £ 17 , but this the committee very properly refused , and on Friday , with the consent of the ratepayers , they agreed to throw off £ 35 , which offer he gladly took . A vote of thanks was given to the committee , and a separate vote was given to Mr . John Abbey , and also to the chairman , for his impartial conduct in the chair .

      SHEFFIELD . —Poos Law Tyrasnt . —Public attention was called to a circular issued by the Poor Law Guardians , and published in the Star , dated February 11 th , in which the Sheffield manufacturers were requested to make a division of their labour . On a deputation of the Associated Trades waiting upon Mr G . Crossland , that circular was promised to be withdrawn , and not to be acted upon ; and yet , in violation of such promises , the following circular has been put into the hands of several of the able-bodied poor , who have been obliged to call upon all the master manufacturers , and solicit employment at their own trades , for the scanty pittance allowed to them by the parish . TO . GB 5 ILBMBX , —The bearer ii oat of employment , and the asale of relief to him would be about five shillings per week . The Guardians of tbe poor of Sheffield being extremely doairoos of finding employment for their able poor , retpeetfuUy rt quest that jou will give this man tcork to the atnoutit of his scale . It , however , it is inconvenient to do m , they would feel obliged by your signature to tint paper , in oTder to otixfy them Unt he b& * properly excited himself to avoid tbe pariah . I am . Gentlemen , Your very obedient Servant , Geo . Crosslakd . Sheffield Ye * trr-Offiee , April 29 , 1 S 43 .

      The tyranny of tbe Goardian 3 , and the degradation of the unfortunate recipients of parish relief U so manifest in the above , as to render comment unnecessary , and which , if carried into effect , would tend to pauperize all the working classes of Sheffield . BOXiTON . —Clxix fob Goods from a Pawnbroker . —At the Borough Courc , Blton , oh Saturday Ia 3 t , Mr . Hezekiah W chile , pawzbro » er , was summoned before the Mayor , Thomas CuUen , and Edmund Ashwor : h , Esqs ., for not giving up a pair of trousers pledgee at his shop , belonging to Michael

      Flannigan . —Mr . Taylor appeared for Mr . Whittle , asd stated that it was wholly impossible to give up tbe trousers , as Mr . Whittle did not know where to find them , in consequence of the complainant having lost the ticket , aad b « ing unable to specify the date when the trousers were pledged . Toe wife of the complainant , and Alice Donoghan , who pledged the trousers , were called , bat 35 neither of them could give the date of the lost ri . ke :, the bench dismissed tbe cai < ; and Mx . Whittle staved , that if he could find the trousers the complainant should hare them .

      BRADFORD -SoiciDK .-On Monday last , between six and seven o ' clock ia the morning , a shoemaker of the name of Pollard , put an end to his existence by cutting his throat with one of the knives used in his occupation of shoemaking . His wife went to the next house on an errand , and was only absent a few minutes , and , on her return , she missed her husband , and knowing he did not leave the house , she entered the cellar where she found him with his throat cut in a shocking manner . Assistance was immediately procured , but the wound was of such a nature , as to render all attempts at stopping the blood useless , and he died in a few minutes after being discovered . An inquest was held on the body , and a verdict of " temporary insanity" returned .

The following resolutions were unanimously adopted— " That ia the opinion of this meeting , two-peuce per quart 13 more than the

      present state of the labourer's wages wages will allow him to pay , and we consider three half-pence per quart a sufficient price ; we therefore pledge ourselves to purchase new milk at that price and no more . "w That a public meeting be held 011 Monday next , at twelve o ' clock at noon , to commence at that time to strike against paying twopence per quart for milk . " — " That a committee of seven persons be appointed to carry the foregoing resolutions into effect . " The meeting was then adjourned to Monday at twelve o ' clock at noon .

      NOTTINGHAM .

Aa to the present low rate of wages given for making hosiery , and the causes of such depression , and to provide a remedy . 2 nd . A 3 to the consequences of the fraudulent making of hosiery , by the want of fashion and other frauds ; and such hose being made three , four , or five at once , aad to restrain such practices . 3 rd . To enquire into the enormous exactions of frame-rent , and other oppressive charges , especially fall rent when full employment u not given ; and to limit the rate of frame-rent , upon the same principle that usury is restricted .

      4 th . And we farther pray your Honourable House to prohibit foreign hosiery being imported into these realms , until foreign statewMtt allow the importation of English hosiery . W ^ 5 th . And we also pray your Honourable House to increase the punishment for paying by truck , by imprisonment ; and to enact a better method of enforcing the law , by putting it on the same footing with other misdemeanors , as a felony . b *; h . And we further pray your Honourable House to require the ho iers aud manufacturers Ut deliver out tickets with their work , as to the price given and the quantity of work required ; and making it penal for master stockingers or bagmen , taking out hosiery to manufacture , not showing their journeymen such tickets , when they deliver the material to them to work .

      7 ih . And whereas a Charter was granted for tbe protection of the framework-knitters of these realms , in tbe year 1663 ; but as of late years uo notice has been taken thereof , we , your pensioners , pray your Honourable Hoase to revive those protections ; and , if found insufficient for our protection , we further pray 8 th . And humbly implore your Honourable House to enact a law empoweriug the Crown to appoint a comniis-ion , in cases of dispute between the employers and the employed , in the manufacturing district ? , to fix and regulate wages , aud to make general reflations , for the guidance of masters and workpeople , subject to the revision of the Privy Council . And your petitioners , as in du : v bound , will ever

      pray .

      very handsomely agreed to reduce the rate of Interest oo " -he re .-pective Sum 3 owing to them ; and also that several Gentlemen have generoas ' y come forward and subscribed such Sums , for Three Years , as will , with the sums further expected to be sub ^ ribed , relieve the Gardens of ail Interest on the Debt for that period .
