T HE WORKING TAILORS'ASSOCIATION , 34 , CASTLE-STREET , OXFORD-STREET , Opposite the Pantheon . A few Journeymen Tailors , anxious to rescue themselves and their class from the miseries and degradation consequent on unlimited competition , and from the abuse of the powers of capital as lately exhibited to the public by the Morning Chronicle newspaper , in his letters on " Labour and the Poor , " have resolved to seek a remedy in their own exertions rather than in . any parliamentary enactment , and in some system which shall combine their own interest with the interests of other classes of society rather than in that return to old customs now chiefly advocated in the trade , by which the benefit of the master and journeyman ( but especially of the former ) is sought to be realized at the expense of the consumer . They have , therefore , united together on the cooperative principle , possessing first-rate talents in the Cutting and Working department , and being supplied by several benevolent gentlemen , with sufficient capital ( which they are anxious to pay back on the first opportunity ) , they have commenced business on extensive premises in Castle-street , Oxford-street , to which and the accompanying list of prices attention is respectfully invited . It will be seen from the latter that they are at once able to compete with the slopseller , whilst realizing a fair profit themselves . They are mutually bound to devote one-third of their net profits to the extension of their numbers . It now rests with the public to stamp their experiment with success by favouring them with a liberal measure of custom , and thereby demonstrate , on an ever-widening scale , that health , prosperity , and inoial worth can be secured to the operatives , and cheapness guaranteed to the consumer , by the faithful realiss < tiion of the brotherly and Christian principle of cooperation . They wish not to injure the trade of any truly " honourable" employer , and venture to hope that all who feel that custom itself ought to have its morality , and who are willing to do what in them lies towards dealing fairly by the operative , will help them by their sympathy , and , as far as possible , by their orders . AH who are friendly to this experiment , mid wish it to succeed , should give it all the assistance in tlieir power , ami recommend it to others . LIST OF PRICES . 70 H CASH ON DELIVERY . £ S . d .

THE POLISH EXILES , who have formed themselves into a WORKING ASSOCIATION , To their ENGLISH BRETHREN who did not abandov THEM IN THEIR DISTRESS . " 39 , Upper Norton-street , Great Portland-road Nov . 10 , 1850 . ' * ' Brethren , —The hospitality we met with on the British soil is most honourable to you , who , though poor yourselves , did not hesitate to divide the fruit of your small earnings with others poorer than yourselves . Anxious to lessen your burden , we united ourselves last month into a * Working Association , ' which by the labour of its members has for its object the providing of material wants , the mutually supporting each other , and the cultivating- pur minds by the acquiring as much knowledge as means and circumstances will allow . To attain that desirable object , we meet once a-week in order to depose our fraternal subscriptions in a common purse , and alternately to listen to lectures of our national history , and of the science of artillery . This is what we have felt our duty to publicly communicate to you . " As long as work was more attainable , the approach of the winter did not much alarm us ; but we now have , we are sorry to say it , neither time nor means sufficient to provide against the menacing- cold and hunger . The fund of our Association is next to nothing , and our brethren are daily losing the means of regularly contributing- their subscriptions . Having experienced bo many losses and misfortunes , which Providence mercifully assisted us through , we confidently hope that we shall not bo deserted in this our present trouble;—and the hope of once more being' enabled to serve the good cause and our fatherland , wils furnish us with the necessary strength to endure future pangl with courage and perseverance . " In behalf of the Association , " CzusNictti , Secretary . "
