Original Poetry. Imprisonment for Debt.[a Lecture on this important and interesting subject was advertized for delivery on the 17th inst., at the saloon of the Royal Hotel, by Mr. N. L. Kentish; but in consequence of the room being required for the theatre, a change of place was named, but so late that it was deemed expedient to defer it till some future period. Mr. Kentish has politely sent us the MS. copy of the essay, and a poem on the same subject from which we have extracted the following lines. There are other portions of it which we have little doubt would be found interesting to many, as containing satirical descriptions of persons well known argumentative part of it, in the hope that it may go some way towards showing expediency of the doing away with the absurd and cruel system of incarceration for debt.
