SHEFFIELD, the great seat of cutlery and other hardware manu- factures, and the capital of a parish of its own name, and of the ancient, but not very clearly defined, Liberty of Hallamshire, is a large and populous market-town and borough, covering, for a consi- derable extent, the abrupt declivities, the gently sloping banks, and the boldly swelling hills which rise in picturesque disorder near the conflux of the rivers Don and Sheaf, and are themselves encompas- sed and overlooked by such a proud amphitheatre of verdant hills, that there is scarcely a street in the town from whence the country can- not be seen, nor an eminence in the vicinity that does not command a beautiful panoramic view of the town and suburbs ; though the dis- tant prospect is often obscured by clouds of curling smoke emitted from a multiplicity of noisy maufactories, and a dense mass of dwel- lings, - amongst which are seen from the eastern summits, the mean- dering streams of the Don, the Sheaf, and the Porter, which here unite and nearly encompass the greater part of the town, after receiving the mountain streams of the Rivelin and Loxley from the north west, and supplying the dams or reservoirs of numerous grinding wheels, forges, &c, which, like natural lakes, form beautiful features in the varied scenery of tins neighbourhood ; where the lovers of the picturesque may see close and well wooded valleys w ith the bare scar occasionally peeping through the foliage ; hills appearing behind other hills, - some bearing fine masses of wood, and others studded with cheerful villas ; and views of wonderful extent, embracing many objects which are associated with events of historical importance : - Indeed, we know of

no other large manufacturing town that has in its vicinage such a fine display of the softer graces of landscape, nor that affords to its industrious inhahitants a more enchanting variety of sylvan and pastoral walks. It holds a central situation betwixt Hull and Liver- pool, and Leeds and Nottingham, and is situated in the South division of the Wapentake of StrafTorth and Tickhill,and in the West-Riding of Yorkshire, bordering upon Derbyshire, and near the eastern side of that high and mountainous tract which has been called the English Appennines, and which extends southward from Westmorland and Craven, but is here (after leaving the Peak) fast subsiding into the fine champaign country that extends to Doncaster, Thorne, &c. In ecclesiastical matters, Sheffield is included in the deanery of Don- caster, in the archdeaconry of the West-Riding, and in the diocese of York. It lies nearly at an equal distance from the eastern and west longitude, - being 162 miles N.N.W. of London.

The PARISH OF SHEFFIELD is co-extensive with the Borough, and abounds in wood and water, and in those important mineral bodies, - coal, ironstone, gritstone, freestone, flagstone, clay, &c. &c. It comprises 22,371 acres of land, divided into the six toivnships, enumerated in the following Table, from which it will be seen that it It may now be estimated at more than 120,000 souls, of whom about 110,000 live in the town and its immediate suburbs, which embrace seven-eights of the buildings and population of the townships of Eccle- sall Bierlow and Brightside Bierlow, and more than half of those of Nether Hallam.

The following enumeration of the six Townships of the Borough and Parish of Sheffield, shews their territorial extent; the Annual Value of their land and buildings, as assessed to the Borough Bate in 1844 ; and their

* The Population of Nether and Upper Hallam was included with Eccle- sall-Bierlow, in the census which was taken in 1736, by order of the Church Burgesses, preparatory to presenting a petition to Parliament, to make St. Paul's Church parochial.

§ Brightside Township is in the North, and all the others in the South Division of Strafforth and Tickhill.

19,713, including 468 building, and 914 unoccupied. The great number of unoccupied houses in 1841, was chiefly attributable to the extraordinary mania for building, which existed in the years 1835 and 1836, during a season

of unparalleled prosperity, which was followed by a long period of commercial depression. The return of Sheffield township in 1841, included 632 persons in the Seffield Union Workhouse, the Infirmary, and Shrewsbury Hospital ; and 147 in the Gaol and Prison. The return of Ecclesall Bierlow included 181 persons in the Ecclesall Union Workhouse ; 34 in the Gaol; and 204 in Wes- ley College. The Brightside Bierlow return included 134 persons in the Workhouse, but the in-paupers of this township are now sent to the Sheffield Workhouse. (See page 17.) The return of Nether Hallam included 57 per- sons in Crookesmoor Workhouse, (now disused;) and 152 soldiers, and 71 other persons in the Barracks.

The History of Sheffield is long and interesting", but is not within the province of this volume ; all that is here intended, being a brief glance at its leading features, with a succinct account of the Public Institutions of the town and neighbourhood, followed by a copious Directory of the inhabitants. Before the Norman Conquest, the parish of Sheffield is supposed to have been attached to the Saxon churches of Treeton, Rotherham, and Hope ; and the manor of Hallam was held by Earl Waltheof, from whose widow it passed to the great Norman baron - Roger de Busli, together with many other manors. Early in the reign of Henry I., Wm. de Lovetot held the barony of Hallamshire, of which his family made Sheffield the capital, - erecting there their chief residence, and building near it a church and hospital. In the reign of Richard I., the heiress of the Lovetot family carried Hallamshire in marriage to Gerard de Furnival, one of whose descendants obtained a charter for a market and fair at Shef- field, in 1296, and granted various privileges to his tenants ; who, in the next century, had obtained some reputation for the manufac- ture of knives, which are mentioned by Chaucer, under the name of " Sheffield thivytles." Early in the 14th century, John Talbot, the first Earl of 'Shrewsbury, obtained Hallamshire in marriage with the heiress of the Furnivals, and his descendants held the barony till it passed with their heiress, about two centuries ago, to the illustrious family of the Howards, Ep.rls of Arundel and Surrey, Dukes of Nor- folk, &c, with whom it has since remained.

Sheffield Castle, the seat of the Norman lords of Hallamshire, was a large and strongly fortified mansion, on the banks of the Don, upon the site still called the Castle Hill. Iu the 15th century, they erected a summer residence in the centre of the Park, called the Manor, where Cardinal Wolsey lodged 16 days, in 1529 ; and where the un- fortunate Man) Queen of Scots was confined nearly twelve years. There are still some remains of the Manor-House, but the site of the Castle is occupied by modem buildings. The bailiff of Hallamshire executes his office in all the manors near Sheffield, which belong to the Duke of Norfolk, as noticed with the Court of Requests at page 21. An Act of the 2lst of James I, incorporated the Cutlery and other Workers in Iron, in Hallamshire, and extended their jurisdic- tion not only throughout that barony, but "everywhere within six miles compass of die same." By the Reform Bill, passed in 1832, Sheffield was raised to the rank of a Parliamentary Borough, - sending two members to parliament; and it was incorporated by Royal Charter, as

Under several Acts of Parliament, the River Don was made navi- gable to Tinsley, within three miles of Sheffield, in 1751 ; and the facilities of the manufactures of the town were further increased by

the opening of a Canal from Tinsley to Sheffield, in 1819 ; and by the opening of the Sheffield and Rotherham Raihvay, on Oct 31st, 1838 ; the North Midland Railway, inl 840; and the Sheffield and Manchester Railway, in 1845. In the latter year, an Act was obtained for the Grimsby and Sheffield Railway ; and application will be made in Parliament during the ensuing session, for Acts for making the direct London and York Railway ; and direct lines from Sheffield to Barnsley, Wakefield, Lincolnshire, Chesterfield, &c, which, when completed, will make Sheffield a great central station, for the principal lines in England, instead of being at the distance of more than five miles from the main trunk to the north and south, as it is now. Among other improvements now in contemplation are - the erection of a commodious Bridge across the Don, near the Iron Bridge and the Sheffield and Manchester Railway Station, and the formation of a direct road from it to the top of Snighill, It has been ascertained that upwards of 10,000 foot passengers cross the Iron Bridge daily, and the want of a carriage road across the river at this point, and another near Cornish Place, has long been felt.

No place has suffered more from the vicissitudes of trade than Sheffield. - The American War produced a state of considerable depression ; and the town had only just recovered from the effects of that abortive effort to estab- lish the principle of taxation without representation, when the Wars of the French Revolution came to plunge its inhabitants in still deeper distress. The town suffered much from the great commercial panics of 1825 and 1837 ; the latter of which was brought about chiefly by the over-speculations of the three preceding years, and its paralysing influence continued till 1843. Since then a season of prosperity has existed, which we trust will long con- tinue, though it may, e'er long, be disturbed by the mania for railway specu- lation, which has for some time pervaded the country. The Trades' Unions, established by the operatives of the town and neighbourhood, for the purpose of preventing those rainous reductions in wages and the price of goods, which often occur in times of depression, have long been a subject of complaint among the Manufacturers, who, in 1844, formed themselves into a Pkotec- tion Society, for mutual defence against the intolerant dictation of the work- men, some of whom have, on several occasions, resorted to diabolical means for intimidation and the midnight destruction of property. We trust the men are now better informed, and that the annals of Sheffield will not again be stained by a repetition of these outrages. Mr. A. C. Branson is solicitor to the Protection Society. Among the joint-stock speculations of 1845, are two companies for establishing Cotton Mills in Sheffield, one proposing to commence business with a capital of ^£20,000, in ^9500 shares, and the other with .£100,000, in ^100 shares. The large central building of the Sheffield Workhouse, was the third cotton mill erected on the same site, after two con- flagrations in 1792 and 1810. Soon after the latter year, its spirited, but un- fortunate proprietors, were obliged to abandon the trade, and their newly erected mill remained unoccupied till it was purchased by the overseers of the poor for .£7,500, in 1829. The Unions, to which Sheffield and several neighbouring parishes have been annexed by the New Poor Law Commis- sioners, are noticed at pages 17 and 18.

The Parish Church (St. Peter and the Holy Trinity,) is a large rec- tangular Gothic structure, nearly in the centre of the town. It is 210 feet long, and 130 broad, and has a tower in the centre surmounted by a lofty spire. The interior consists of a spacious nave, two side aisles, and a chan- cel; the latter of which is rich both in ancient and modern sculpture, - having the tombs of threeEarls of Shrewsbury, and two beautiful productions of the chisel of Sir F. L. Chantry. The church was thoroughly repaired persons. In the tower is a peal of 10 bells, a set of chimes, and an ei

lent clock with an illuminated dial. The vicarage, which is valued in the is in the alternate patronage of Philip Gell, Esq., of Hopton, and Mrs. Lawson, of Boroughbridge; and, since 1805, it has been enjoyed by the Rev. Thos. Sutton, D.D. Associated with, but independent of the vicar, are three assistant ministers, viz : - the Revs. Edward Goodwin, M.A., John Gibson, Mr. Gibson ; and the Rev. J. Teague is the vicar's curate. Mr. Joseph Hudson is the clerk ; Mr. John Kirk, the sexton ; and Mr. Bothamley, the organist. The CHURCH BURGESSES were incorporated by a charter of Queen Mary, in 1554, and invested with property for the snpport of the three assistant ministers; the reparation of the church, bridges, &c; and the relief of the poor. Their income from land, buildings, &c, amounts to upwards of £1,600 per annum. The present list of these 12 Trustees, or Church Burgesses, is as follows: - Messrs. John Porter, Henry Newbould, Henry Wilson, Saml. Revell, Jas. Creswick, Richd. Bayley, Fras. Hunts- man, Robt. Younge, Hy. Furniss, Geo. Hounsfield, Thos. Creswick, and C. F. Younge. Mr. James Wheat is their clerk. They allow yearly sala- ries of about £400 to each of the three assistant ministeivs.

St. Paul's Church, in Norfolk street, is a handsome Grecian fabric, chapel -of-ease till 1740. It has several neat mural tablets, and a bust of one of its late ministers, executed by Chantry. The curacy, valued at £136, is in the incumbency of the Rev. James Knight, M.x\. The Rev. Chas. Hamilton, B.A., is assistant curate. Henry Beckett is clerk, and Abraham Beckett, sexton.

St. James' Church, a square building, in the Grecian style, was finished which entitles its possessor to a pew as a freehold inheritance. It is 71^ feet long, and 42§ broad ; and in its east window is a representation of the Crucifixion, executed by Peckitt, in 1797. The curacy, valued at £160, is eujoyed by the Rev. Thos. Best, M.A. The Rev. C. W. Woodhouse, M.A., is assistant curate. Mr. Thos. Finch is clerk, and Mr. Thos. Hudson, sexton. St. George's Church stands in a burial ground of 2f acres, extending from Portobello-street to Broad-lane. The first stone was laid July 19th,1821, by Parliament. It is a handsome structure, in the Gothic style which pre- vailed in the 14th century, and is 122 feet long, and 67 broad, with a noble tower at the west end, rising to the height of 139 feet. It has 2,000 sittings, one half of which are free. The altar piece is a beautiful painting of Christ blessing little children, by Paris, who presented it to the church in 1831. The perpetual curacy (£400 per annum,) is now enjoyed by the Rev. Wm. Mercer, M.A. The assistant curates are - the Rev. J. C. Home, M.A., and the Rev. C. Chamberlain. Mr. Arthur Lee is clerk, and Mr. Samuel Lilly, sexton.

St Philip's Church is a neat Gothic structure, near the junction of the Penistone and Infirmary roads, and was built by Parliament at the cost building was not opened till July 1828. It is 95 feet long, and 79 broad. The curacy, valued at £135, is in the incumbency of the Rev. John Livesey, M.A. ; and Mr. Jph. Cartledge is the sexton. There is no clerk, - the re- sponses, &c. being chanted in the cathedral style.

St. Mary's Church, at the foot of Bramall lane, is a handsome struc- ture, in the florid Gothic style, standing in a spacious burial ground, given by the Duke of Norfolk. It was built by Parliament at the cost of

bency of the Rev. Henry Farish, M.A, Mr. Thomas Preston is clerk, and James Dyson, sexton.

St. John's Church, on the lofty summit of Park Hill, stands in a burial ground of nearly three acres, given by the Duke of Norfolk, and was erected in 1836, at the cost of about £3,500, raised by subscription. It is a neat Gothic edifice, 52 feet broad, and 102 feet long, exclusive of the tower, which is surmounted by a spire rising to the height of 100 feet. The Richard Parkin, the sexton.

Besides the seven churches in the town, there are in the parish, neat modern churches, or chapels-of-ease,at Attercliffe, Darnall, Ecclesa.ll, Crookes, and Fulwood ; and at the Shrewsbury Hospital is a commodious chapel, in the Gothic style, with pews for a large congregation; so that there are in the parish of Sheffield thirteen episcopal places of worship, in which are sittings about to be built in the Wicker, as noticed at page 323. The Roman Catholic Chapel, in Norfolk row, was built in 1816, and is now under the pastoral care of the Revs. Charles Pratt and Matthew Kavanah. It is in contemplation to erect, in the Leadmill field, upon land to be given by the Duke of Norfolk, an elegant Roman Catholic Church, after the style of those at Leeds, Derby, and Nottingham.

There are in the parish of Sheffield, about 36 DISSENTING CHAPELS, which will seat upwards of 25,000 hearers. Of these, the following 25 are in the town. The Friends' Meeting House, near Bank street and Hartshead,

The Upper Chapel, in Norfolk street, was built by Presbyterians, in 1700 ; but it has long been held by Unitarians, and is now under the ministry of the Rev. B. T. Stannus. Nether Chapel, in Norfolk street, was erected in 1715, but was taken down in 1826, and rebuilt on a more spacious and handsome plan. It belongs to the Independents, and is under the ministry of the Rev. Thos. Smith, M.A. Here are four other Independent Chapels, repaired and enlarged; Garden Street Chapel, (Rev. S. Bellamy,) a small building erected about 1780; Queen Street Chapel, (Rev. J. H. Muir,) built 1790; and Mount Zion Chapel, (Rev. S. Jackson,) a handsome stone fabric, built in 1834-5. Here are three Baptist Chapels, - one in Townhead and one in Eyre Street, at the corner of Duke Street, built in 1841. The latter belongs to the General Baptists.

The Wesleyan Methodists have six large Chapels here, viz : - Norfolk Street Chapel, built in 1780, and enlarged in 1833; Carver Street Chapel, built in 1804; Ebenezer Chapel, near Moorfields, erected in 1823 ; Bridgehouses Chapel, erected in 1795, but rebuilt in 1833 ; the Park Chapel, built in 1831; and Brunswick Chapel, a large and handsome stone fabric, erected in 1833, and having seats for 2,000 hearers. They have also four small Chapels at Owlerton Bar, Crookes Moor, Heeley,and the Manor. The New Connexion Methodists have two commodious Chapels here, - one in Scotland Street, erected in 1764, and rebuilt in 1828; and the other in South Street, built in 1828. The Association Methodists have a neat Chapel in Surrey Street, built in 1831 ; and a smaller one in Stanley Street. . The Primitive Methodists have a large Chapel in Coalpit Lane, built in 1835 and '6 ; and the deluded followers of Johanna Southcott assemble for wor- ship in the Free Mason's Hall. The Plymouth Brethren and Latter Day Saints have meeting rooms in the town.

The General Cemetery, in the south-western suburbs of the town, about a mile from the Market-place, occupies 5a. 2r. 26Jp. of land, on the

picturesque acclivity of Sharrow Vale, well enclosed, beautifully laid out, and having in its centre a neat chapel. It is the property of a company of shareholders, and was opened July 30th, 1836, at the close of which year it had cost upwards of £13,000. Part of it is about to be consecrated for the use of members of the established church. About 30 family vaults, and 440 graves have been sold, and the number of interments, since the opening, secretary ; and Mr. W. Chadwiek, sexton.

Upwards of 10,000 children attend the different Sunday Schools attached to the Churches and Chapels; and the various congregations are liberal supporters of other Institutions for the promotion of Christian Know- ledge, amongst which are Bible, Missionary, Tract, and other Associations. The Sheffield Protestant Association was established about the close of 1839, and Lord Wharneliffe is its president. Here are also Public Day Schools, at which about 4,000 children are instructed either gratuitously, or for tri- fling weekly payments. The Boys' Charity School, in East-parade, was erected in 1710, and rebuilt in 1825 and '6, and now affords board, lodging, clothing, and education to 90 poor boys, at the cost of £1,100 per annum, arising from the endowment and voluntary subscriptions. The Girls' Charity; School, in St. James'-row, was erected in 1786, and its object is to clothe, support, and educate 70 poor girls, and to give them every requisite instruction to fit them for domestic servants. The National School, in Carver-street, was erected by subscription, in 1812, and affords instruction to about 360 boys, and 340 girls, on the Madras system. It is the central school of the Sheffield National District Society, which has six other Day Schools, and 13 Sunday Schools, in different parts of the town, and nine Day Schools, and ten Sunday Schools, in the neighbourhood, affording instruction to about 5,000 children. The Lancasterian School, in Gib- raltar-street, is attended by about 400 boys, and 250 girls, and was estab- lished in 1809. The Wesleyans, in 1832, opened their large Sunday School, at Redhill, for the reception of day scholars, who pay from Id. to 4d. per week ; and they have since opened, for the same purpose, their Sunday Schools at Norfolk street, Brunswick, and Ebenezer chapels. Here are also seven Infant Schools, supported partly by annual contributions. Four of them are under the care of the Infant School Society, connected with the Established Church, and are situated in Beet-street, Hermitage-street, Hoyle- street, and the Park. The Catholic School, in Surrey-street, was built 3d. per week. St. George's Schools, at the head of Beet street, now nearly completed, are among the handsomest and largest National Schools in the kingdom, and were ereeted at the cost of about £4,000, including £1,200 given for the site. The first stone was laid by Lord Wharneliffe, Nov. 14th, 1844. The building is of stone, in the Norman style, and the three spacious school rooms will accommodate 1,280 children, viz: - 490 boys, 490 girls, and 300 infants. The members of St. George's church con- tributed liberally towards the erection, and the Privy Council granted about St. Pauls National School, in Charles-street, was erected in 1844.

The TOWN BURGESSES' TRUST consists, like that of the Church Burgesses, of property held in trust, for the benefit of the town at large, and it now produces upwards of £1,600 per annum, of which £ 1,000 arises from Navigation shares, and more than £400 from land in and near the town. The trustees have, at various periods, expended large sums in widening the streets, and otherwise improv- ing the town. In 1840, they extended Queen-street from Workhouse- croft to Scotland-street, and widened that part of Campo-lane be- tween St. James's-row and Lee-croft.

The Hospital of Gilbert, Earl of Shrewsbury, founded by that illustrious nobleman, in 1616, formerly occupied the site of the present Corn Exchange and New Haymarket, but the original buildings were pulled down in 1827, when the almspeople were removed to the present Hospital, which forms one of the handsomest establishments of the kind in the kingdom, and occupies an airy situation, on the brow of the hill overlooking Claywood, on the eastern side of the town, opposite the Cholera Monument, round which is a large plot of ground, laid out in public walks and shrubberies. The trusteeship and patronage of this hospital is vested with the Duke of Norfolk, and it now affords comfortable dwellings to 20 poor men, and 20 poor women, with a weekly allowance of ]0s. to each of the former, and 8s. to each of the latter. They have also each a load of coals every three months, and a blue coat or gown once in two years. The founder directed that the inmates should be such as had " seen better days, and had been reduced by misfortune." The Rev. Thos. Robinson is the governor $ chaplain,

Hollis Hospital, in Newhall-street, was founded in 1703, by Thomas Hollis, a wealthy merchant, of London, but a native of Sheffield, and a liberal and benevolent nonconformist. He purchased the first dissenting meeting house in Sheffield, called the New hall, and a house adjoining, which he converted into dwellings for 16 poor women, widows of cutlers, residing within two miles of Sheffield, or others connected with its trade.

In his will he made no provision for the maintenance of the Hospital, merely desiring that it might be continued, and this request was religiously ful- filled by his descendants. The anuual income is about £680. Besides stipends to the ministers of the Upper, Nether, and Fulwood Chapels, and the Presbyterian ministers, and schoolmasters of Rotherham and Doncaster, seventeen almswomen receive each 7s. per week, and the governor a yearly salary of £60. The latter reads prayers to the almspeople, and conducts a School for the gratuitous instruction of 80 poor boys. The property of the charity is vested in 14 trustees, chiefly descendants of the founder. Richd. Solly, Esq., is the treasure)* ; and Mr. G. H. Hobson, governor.

The Charities, under the management of the Cutlers'' Company, are - Thos. Hanby's, which yields £150 a year, to be distributed in clothes, and money, to poor and aged men and women ; and Joseph Hudson's, consis- ting of an annuity of £8. 10s. for poor file strikers, at Christmas. The poor of Sheffield have about £140 a year from the bequests of Mary Parsons, Eliz. Parkin, and seven other donors, vested with various trustees ; £100 a year from the Church Burgesses' Trust ; £60 a year from Wm. Birleifs charity, left in 1715, and vested with the Church Burgesses; and occasionally they have small distributions from the Town Burgesses' Trust. Various societies, for bettering the condition of the poor, are liberally supported by the contributions of the benevolent, who, in seasons of scarcity, inclemency, and want of employment, often dispense large sums in food and clothing, among the destitute inhabitants.

The Savings' Bank was established in 1819, and now occupies a neat stone building, in Surrey-street. Its deposits amounted in 1 836 to £147,136; uals, 1 ] charitable societies, and 54 friendly societies. This is exclusive of a large surplus fund.

Ecclesall Bierlow Union comprises the seven townships of Ecclesall Bierlow, Nether and Upper Hailam, Norton, Totley, Dore, and Beauchief ; the latter four of which are in Derbyshire. It had 31,628 inhabitants in 1841, and its average annual expenditure for the relief of the poor, during with an elegant front in the Elizabethan style, was completed about two years ago by this Union, at the cost of more than £6,000, in lieu of the old one on Sharrow moor. It is pleasantly situated near Cherry tree hill, and has room for about 500 paupers. Its number of inmates in July 1843, was The weekly cost per head of the in-door poor is 2s. 5§d. for food, and 6f d. for clothing.

Mr. John Staniforth is clerk to these Commissioners ; Mr. W. H. Frith is their collector $ and Mr. Thos. Raynor is the town surveyor. Their opera- tions are confined to cleansing and lighting the streets; the police force and nightly watchmen being now under the management of the Town Council. They collected Rates in 1840, amounting to £6,226, and in the year ending Juno, 1S45, to £3,667; the latter being for lighting and cleansing only.

TOWN COUNCIL : - As will be seen by the copy of the Royal Charter, at pages 27 to 31, the Borough of Sheffield was not Incorporated for Muni- cipal purposes, till August 1843, though it might have received this distinc- tion at an earlier period, had not a numerous body of the Burgesses opposed it. By this Charter, the borough is divided into nine wards, and placed under the control of a Toivn Council, consisting of a mayor, 14 aldermen, and 42 councillors, and invested with the powers of the Act passed in 5th and 6th of William IV., for the Regulation of Municipal Corporations in England and Wales. They have extended the lighting and watching dis- tricts so as to comprehend nearly the whole Borough, except Upper Hallam. The rateable yearly value of the lands and buildings now assessed to the watch and lighting rates is - in Sheffield township, £157,791 ; in Ecclesall, sum which was levied as a watch rate, in Oct. 1844, for the ensuing year. The rateable yearly value of property, assessed to the borough rate, in 1844, cliffe, £8,276 ; producing about £1,000, on an assessment of one penny in

or something less than 2|d. in the pound, on the gross yearly rental of £262,988. The Police Force was transferred from the Improvement Com- missioners to the Town Council, early in 1844, and probably, in a few years, they will surrender the remainder of their functions to the same body. In Feb. 1844, the Town Council fixed the salary of the Town Clerk (Mr. Edw. Bramley,) at £300 per annum, and appointed a night and day police force, number, with 8 superior officers, and the day police 12, with 4 superior officers. This force has since been increased to 63 watchmen, and 34 day policemen, with three inspectors, three police Serjeants, and 5 patrol Ser- jeants, all under thesuperintendence of Mr. Thos. Raynor, the high constable and town surveyor. The inspectors have 25s.; the Serjeants 21s.; the patrol -Serjeants 20s.; the day policemen 17s. to 18s.; and the watchmen served as constables for the township of Sheffield, have been appointed warrant officers, for attending the magistrates, and serving summonses in the borough, with yearly salaries of £150 each. The Chief Constable and Town Surveyor has £200 a-year from the Town Council, and £100 from the Improvement Commissioners. The Police Office is at the Town Hall, and the monthly and committee meetings of the Corporation are held in the Cutlers' Hall ; but the purchase or erection of a suitable building for a Council Hall is in contemplation. The motto on the common seal of the borough is "Deo adjuvante labor prqficit" The expenses charged to the borough for obtaining the charter, amounted to about £800, of which, £686 was paid out of the borough rates, and the remainder by subscription. The Town Council have hitherto declined applying for the privilege of a separate Court of Quarter Sessions for the Borough, though until they have this, the Home Secretary has refused appointing Borough Magistrates. The County Magistrates, of whom one of the most active, (W. Overend, Esq.,) is resident in the town, have concurrent jurisdiction with the Mayor and his predecessor, and hold adjourned Quarter Sessions here at the usual periods. The large sums, which the six townships of the borough pay yearly to the West Riding county rates, would-} -no doubt, be amply sufficient for the sup- port of local courts, a borough gaol, a recorder, &c. The sums paid by the township of Sheffield alone to the county rates, amounted in 1828 to £1,825, townships, averages more than £4,000 per annum. The number of Voters, qualified to vote for the parliamentary representatives of the borough, is about 4,000 ; and the Burgess Boll, containing the names of rate payers entitled to vote in the election of members of the Town Council, comprises only about 7,000, but ought to embrace more than 10,000, as the smallest tenements are assessed to the borough rates, which, in many cases, the owners of cottage property have been indiscreet enough to pay, leaving their low rented tenants unburtbened with any local taxation, except that of the highways. A list of the First Town Council will be seen at page 31 ; and the present list is as follows : -

The CUTLERS* HALL is a commodious building, in Church-st, with a handsome stone front, in the Corinthian style. It was built other commodious apartments, handsomely furnished, and decorated with a line collection of paintings, including admirable portraits of the Vicar, the Duke of Wellington, Lord Wharncliffe, &c.

The Market Places of Sheffield have been enlarged at various periods, under two acts of parliament, passed in 1784 and 1827. The when the present Killing Shambles were also erected. The Green Market, between King-street and Castle-street, was formed in 1818, when the old gaol was taken down. The Corn Exchange, and the New Hay and Cattle Markets, were opened in 1830; and the New Fair Ground, soon afterwards. Two fairs are held yearly on the Tuesday and Wednesday in Trinity week, and on the 28th and 29th of November, for the sale of horses, cattle, cheese, &c. The weekly markets, on Tuesday and Saturday, are well supplied with provisions ; and that on the former day, with corn, cattle, sheep, and swine. A market for earthenware is held every Tuesday, in Paradise square. The Ecclesall Bazaar^ in South-street, is a market place, which was built by Earl Fitzwilliam, in 1827, but it is unoccupied,, except the shops which front the street.

The Gas Works, at Sheaf bridge, were commenced in 1818, and finished Oct. 6th, 1819, by a company of shareholders, with a capital of £40,000, raised in £20 shares. There are four large gasometers here, and two others in Brown-street and Spring-street, - the works having been greatly enlarged since 1835. The New Gas Works, on Loug-Island, between the river Don and the Canal, were built in

in £25 shares. Attached to them is a large gasometer behind Bow- street. These rival companies, after being some years in opposition, found it their interest to consolidate themselves into one company, for which purpose they obtained an Act of Parliament, in 1844 Under this Act, they are styled u The Sheffield United Gas Light Company" and they now supply their customers at the rate of 6s. 8d. per 1,000 cubic feet, subject to certain discounts in favour of large consumers.

WATER WORKS. - The town is abundantly supplied with water from the dams on Crookes Moor, and the great dam (50 acres) at Red- mires, but the charges are rather high, and the water not so pure as it might be if it passed through filtering-beds before it came to the in- habitants. The water-works were greatly extended and improved another Act for the purpose of increasing the supply of water at Red- mires, at the cost of about £10,000. The Company's Offices are at 14, Division-street; Mr. J. T. Leather is the engineer; Mr. G. S. Greening, the collector ; and Messrs. James Wheat and Albert Smith, are the law clerks. The ASSAY OFFICE is at 71, Fargate, and is open everv Monday and Thursday. Mr. L. C. Sayies is the assay master. The EXCISE OFFICE is at 1, Hartshead, and is open daily. John Badcock, Esq., of 7, St. George's terrace, is the collector; Joseph Angus, clerk; Samuel Ellis, permit-ivriter ; and James Tapper and Joseph Wilson, are the supervisors. The STAMP OFFICE is at I, St. James's-street, and John Brown, Esq., is the distributor. Mr. George Barker, of Sandon place, is surveyor of taxes for the town and neighbourhood. The POST OFFICE, after being shifted to various places, dining the last twenty years, was removed to the foot of Angel-street, early in 1845 ; but the situation is not cen- tral, nor has the building the appearance of being the place of receipt and despatch, for the correspondence of a large commercial and manu- facturing town of more than 100,000 inhabitants.

Victoria by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, Queen, Defender of the Faith, to all to whom these presents shall conie greeting -

Whereas, by an Act passed in the first year of our reign, intituled - " An Act to amend an Act for the Regulation of Municipal Corporations in Eng- land and Wales," it was enacted, that if the inhabitant householders of any town or borough in England or Wales should petition his Majesty to grant to them a Charterof Incorporation, itshouldbe lawfulfor his Majesty by any such Charter, if he should think fit by the advice of his Privy Council, to grant the same to extend to the inhabitants of any such town or borough within the district to be set forth in such Charter, all the powers and provisions of an Act passed in the Session of Parliament of the 5th and 6th years of the reign of his late Majesty - William the Fourth, intituled - " An Act to provide for the regulation of Municipal Corporations in England and Wales," whether such town or borough should or should not be a corporate town or borough ; or should or should not be named hi either of the schedules to the said Act for the regulation of Municipal Corporations in England and Wales, provided, nevertheless, that notice of every such petition, and of the time when it should please his Majesty to order that the same be taken into consideration by his Privy Council, should be published in the London Gazette, one month at least before such petition should be so considered ; but such publication should not need to be by Royal proclamation. And, whereas, after the passing of the said Act of Parliament, passed in the first year of our reign, the inhabitant householders of the borough of Sheffield, in the West-Riding of the county of York, did petition us to grant to them, the said inhabitants, a Charter of In- corporation ; and notice of such petition, and of the time when the same was ordered by us to be taken into consideration by our Privy Council was ac- cordingly duly published in the London Gazette one month at least before such petition was so considered. And, wliereas, afterwards, to wit, on the 20th day of August, in the year of our Lord 1841, our Privy Council did proceed to consider the said petition ; and having since resumed the consideration thereof, have advised us to grant a Charter of Incorporation for the district comprised in the boundaries of the borough of Sheffield, in the said county of York, as the same were settled and determined by an Act passed in the session of Parliament of the '2nd and 3rd years of his said late Majesty's reign, inti- tuled "An Act to settle and describe the divisions of counties and the limits of Cities and Boroughs in England and Wales, in so far as respects the elec- tion of Members to serve in Parliament." WE, THEREFORE, as well by virtue of the powers and authorities vested in us, as by virtue of the powers and authorities given us by the said recited Act, passed in the first year of our reign, do hereby grant and declare, that the inhabitants of the borough of Sheffield, comprised within the district herein before described, and their successors shall be for ever hereafter one body politic and corporate in deed, fact, and name, and that the said body corporate shall be called the Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses of the borough of Sheffield, and them by the name of the Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses of the borough of Sheffield into one body corporate and politic in deed, fact, and name, do for us, our hens and successors, erect and constitute by these presents, and we do grant to the said body corporate, that by the same name they shall have perpetual succession, and be for ever hereafter persons able and capable in law to have and exercise, and that they shall have and exercise all the powers, authorities, immunities, and

priv:. lch are now held and enjoyed by the several boroughs named

in the said Act for regulating Municipal Corporations in England and Wales in the like manner, and subject to the same provisions, as fully and as amply to all intents and purposes whatsoever, as if the said borough of Sheffield had been included in the schedules to that Act annexed; - and we do hereby ex- tend to the said inhabitants of the said borough, comprised within the district hereinbefore described, all the powers and provisions of the said Act for regu- lating Municipal Corporations in England and Wales, and of all and every other Acts or Act of Parliament made and passed i'or altering, amending, or enlarging the same Act, and the powers and provisions thereof, or in anywise relaxing thereto ; - amd ice furthe* will, grant, and declare that the said Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses of the said borough of Sheffield and their succes- sors, shall and may for ever hereafter have a common seal to serve them in transacting their business from time to time arising within the said borough ; - and we further will, grant, and declare, that the said Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses shall be able and capable in law to purchase," take, and acquire lands, tenements, hereditaments, and all other possessions whatsoever to any value, situate, lying, or being within the said borough - and also to purchase. lake, and acquire lands, tenements, hereditaments, and all other possessions elsewhere out of the said borough, not exceeding the sum of ten thousand pounds by the year, to have and to hold the said lands, tenements, and hereditaments to the said Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses, and their succes- sors for ever; - an d ice further will, grant, and declare that the Council of the said borough shall consist of a Mayor, 14 Aldermen, and 4*2 Councillors, to be respectively elected at such times "and places, and in such manner, as the Mayor, Aldermen, and Councillors for the boroughs named in the schedules to the said Act for the regulation of Municipal Corporations in England and Wales - except that the first Mayor, .Aldermen, and Councillors for the said borough shall be respectively elected at such times and in such maimer as hereinafter mentioned; - and that the said Mayor, Aldermen, and Council- lors, so to be elected, for the said borough of * Sheffield, shall respectively have, exercise and enjoy all the powers, immunities, and privileges, and be subject to the same duties, penalties, liabilities, and disqucuirications, as the Zslayor, Aldermen, and Councillors for the several boroughs enumerated in ict for the regulation of Municipal Corporations in England and Wales, so far as the same are applicable to the said borough of Sheffield; - and we further will, grant, and declare, that the title and qualification of the Burgesses of the said borough of Sheffield shall be the same with regard to the said Borough as the title and qualification of the Burgesses of the Boroughs named in the said Act for Regulating Municipal Corporations in England and Wales are with regard to such boroughs, exactly as if the said borough of Sheffield had been included in the schedules to that Act annexed - and that all persons possessing such title or qualification, with respect to the said borough of Sheffield, shall be entitled to be placed upon the Burgess List hereinafter mentioned.
