Wz return to the subject of the Allotment of Land in small quantities for garden purposes, as a means of bettering the condition of the labouring classe8, from a thorough conviction of the many benefits th^t/yould follow its being extensively adopted in our own immediate neighbourhood. The main object in providing for the wants and necessities of the working classes, should be to give them healthy and profitable occupation-to offer a premium, in fact, upon industry and pru- deDe to excite feelings of independence-to -cherish a love of nature, by familiarizing them with her operations—and to make them value "theSr native soil, by giving them the opportunity of participating in its productions, by the exercise of their own labour, and at their own cost. We have clearly shown how this may be accomplished without the least risk, and with certain advantage. We have brought forward many instances to prove that poverty and distress have invariably vanished wherever the allotment system prevails, -—that the condition of the labourer and mechanic has been elevated to an extraordinary degree, in health and moral worth,—that his garden allot- ment has been the Savings Bank of his surplus lâbour-and that far from being a burthen upon the classes above him, by his claims upon their bounty, he has in many instances contributed to their enjoyment from the produce of his well cultivated garden. We can conceive no plan better calculated to do extensive good; it has everything to recommend it-facility of accom- plishment, without a possibility of mischief or injury to any one—and by affording encourage- ment to the temperate and industrious, and laudable example to the idler and the profligate, it confers a lasting benefit upon all branches of society. The progress of temperance in this town and neighbourhood, has already worked wonders in reclaiming the drunkard, and in re- storing to the. anxious wife and helpless children many a husband and parent, till latterly lost in dissipation.—To aid and assist this glorious move- ment towards man's regeneration, leave him no excuse for idleness !-every labouring man, more ,especially those of sedentary employments, such as Tailors, Shoemakers, and others engaged in indoor occupations, ought to have a piece of ground for healthy relaxation, and the cultivation or vegetables, that will aid him in his food, and fruit or flowers for his innocent gratification. We confidently, earnestly, recommend this plan for adoption; it will provide against a season of want and scarcity, it will supersede the necessity of large contributions for the relief of the poor, by jfttrnishing them with the means, through God's merciful providence, of wipporting ,dn comfort, their families and themselves,—and it will tend most effectually to promote peace and good fel- lowship between all classes of the community.
