(From the London New Price Current of last evening.) SUGAR.—The supply of West India, Sugar last week was very indifferent, chiefly of the inferior descriptions, and the buyers only purchase for their immediate wants for consump tion, the sales were estimated at 2,200 hhds. the holders took advantage of the small supply of good Sugars, and obtained an advance of 6d, per cwt. on the prices. The stock of West India is now 10,036 hhds. and trs., being 4,421' more than last year. The stock of Mauritius 111,528 bags, being 40,757 more than last year. The delivery of West India 2,223 hhds. and trs., being 1,231 more than last year. The delivery of Mauritius 9,602 bags, being 524 more than the cor responding week of 1834. This morning the show of West India Sugars appears to be of a worse description than any day previously, in some of the principal brokers only one or two boards of low brown Sugar appear ; the trade are out of stock, and where any parcels approaching to good quality ap peared they found ready buyers. The sales, including the Barbadoes 139 hhds., are 600 hhds. asd trs., filo latter low to fine yellow 545. 6d. a 605., rather dearer, and the market generally may be stated 6d. a Is. per cwt. higher than on this day week. The Refined goods continued scarce last week, quite inadequate to the demand, which was considerable for export : rather higher prices were paid, particularly for fine Crashed. The sales were chiefly at the long price 745. 6d. and 745. 9d.—the holders asked 755. ; the purchases at the short price, chiefly at 335. ad. The grocers took small par cels for the home consumption at steady prices. Such was the scarcity of Refined, that the buyers contracted for goods to be ready three weeks and a month hence, at the prices we have stated. This afternoon the scarcity of Refined goods is still more apparent, and contracts for forward delivery are more freely offered about the present prices. The Market is again rather higher ; 345. paid for fine .Crashed, and also 755., the long price. The grocers still buy goods for the home supply on a very limited scale for immediate consumption. MAURITIUS.--The public sales of Friday, 7,377 bags Mau ritius, went off with briskness at an average advance of 6d. per cwt. The Refiners were still considerable buyers, on account of the scarcity of good West India Sugars. By public sales this day, 8,963 bags Mauritius Sugar sold—low grey, 51s. ; yellow, 525. a 61s. : all sold at former prices, except the good qualities, which are again 6d, per cwt. higher. EAST INDIA.--There were no sales of East India Sugars of any extent reported last week. By public sale this day 154 baskets 255 bags Batavia went off at full prices. FOREIGN.—The enquiries for Foreign Sugar were very con siderable last week, but the actual sales were chiefly in white Havannah Sugar 345., and a cargo sold at the same price.— Average price of Sugar, 11. 9s. 3d. per cwt. COFFBE.—There were no purchases of any consequence last week, but the market had a firmer appearance, buyers could not purchase East India or Foreign, within ls. a 2s. of what they could have done the preceding week, no parcels pressed on the market ; two parcels of Ceylon sold 555. 6d., coloury Brazil 525. In British Plantation descriptions the only pur chases were good ord. Jamaica and Triage for immediate con sumption at full market prices. This d a y s pu bli c sa l es 488 bags Sumatra Coffee sold briskly 395. 6d. a 41s. full prices, 503 bags Batavia ord. 525. a 525. 6d., good ord. yellow 555. a 575. Isold, 53 bales Mocha 955. a 106 s. RUN, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—The Rum market is very firm, the stocks particularly of Leewards are so very low that the sales continue confined to small parcels from the stocks of the dealers at rather higher rates than the market prices, some Jamaica 32 and 33 over sold at 3s. Id. The purchases of old Brandy are not large, but they are higher ld. to 2d. per gal lon ; in the other descriptions there is no alteration. Geneva is steady, pale about 2s. TALLOW..—Th• Tallow market continues firm, and the transactions for home consumption extensive, 375. 3d. has been paid for parcels on the spot, and there are now no contracts offering at 38s. for forward delivery. IRISH PROVISIONS.—The shippers of prime singed Bacon continue to hold for 365. on board, while the price landed is from 345. a 355. ; the trade here will not yet purchase for for ward shipments. Butter has continued in good demand ; Stock of Irish not much above one-third of this time last sea son. Lard dull at 465. a 48s. landed. Our Stocks and Deliveries are estimated as follows : - - BUTTER. BACON. Stock. Delivery. Stocks.

SILK.—The market remains inactive, prices are steady. The importations this week are 382 bales to the East India Company. TEA.—Nothing has been done in the market since the sale of the Alexander. Baring's cargo, the trade in the present anxiety of importers to sell seem unwilling to buy beyond their immediate wants.

OBTAINING SITUATIONS UNDER FALSE PRETENCES. — This offence has increased to an extent truly alarming in this district of late. Yesterday, a decent-looking man, of middle age, named Henry Campbell, was brought before Sir F. RoE, in the custody of Ballard the officer, charged under the statute with having obtained employment in the service of General Hudson, of 83, Wimpole-street, by means of a false character, wherehy he had subjected him self to a penalty of 201., or three months' imprisonment. The prisoner, on being asked by the Clerk, pleaded guilty. Sir F. ROE—The prisoner's plea may be recorded, but for the sake of the public I should wish the General to state the circumstances. General Hudson—Being in want of a footman, between the Bth and 10th of April, advertised, and the prisoner ap plied for the situation. He (the General) of course de manded a reference, and the prisoner gave the address of " Mrs. Stowe, Laurel Cottage, Sunning-hill," as the Lady with whom he had last lived. Ho wrote a letter, addressed it to Mrs. Stowe, and received an answer written in terms which, grammatically speaking, he could not conceive to have been written by a lady. He, however, in the mean time, had taken the prisoner into his service, and only wrote to Mrs. Stowe to ascertain if the prisoner's statement was true. The letter which he received, and which purported to be dated from Laurel Cottage, stated that the prisoner had conducted himself with regularity and attention to bu siness, and that he was honest, sober, and cleanly. The only reason alleged for his leaving her service was that he objected to work in the garden. Witness by inquiry ascer tained that he had been imposed upon, and on application at the General Post Office, it was found that there was such a place as Laurel Cottage, Sunning-hill, but that it had not been occupied for the last six months ; and further, that witness's letter had been viken from the postman at the door of the cottage by a young man the morning after it was written. The prisoner upon this statement was convicted in the penalty of 201., and in default he was committed for three months to the House of Correction, there to be kept to hard labour. General Hudson was sorry he had made the discovery, for that the prisoner had conducted himself extremely well for the three weeks that he had been in his service. A well-known begging letter writer, named Underwood, was fully committed for attempting to defraud Lord Skel mersdale, by writing a letter to him containing a fictitious tale of distress, with intent to obtain money. HATTON-GARDEN. Yesterday Bartholomew O'Brien, late butler in the ser vice of Mrs. Jane Gordon, 31, Gower -street, Bedford square, was brought before Mr. LAING, in custody of Baker, 44 E division, charged by that lady with having robbed her of a service of plate of considerable value. It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutrix that the prisoner had been some time in her service. At the latter end of December she placed a valuable service of plate in his possession, and on the Ist of January he ab sconded from the house, taking with him the whole of the plate. She immediately communicated the circumstance to Sir Charles Forbes, to whom she is related, and infor mation of the robbery was given to the police, who made very inquiry ; and they ultimately discovered that the pri soner had pledged portions of the property at various pawnbrokers, but on offering part of it at a pawnbroker's on Snow-hill, and being suspected, he was questioned as to whether it belonged to himself. He answered in the negative, and said that it belonged to Mr. Gordon, wit ness's son, who had sent him to pledge it, and the pawn broker detained the property, telling the prisoner that it would not be taken in pledge for money, but it would be detained until that gentleman made his appearance. The police ascertained, through subsequent inquiries, that the prisoner was a married man, and that he had sent a letter to his wife, informing her that he was going to Ireland, and that he was sorry to say, that by. the time she received the letter he would be no more. Nothing further was heard of the prisoner until yesterday morning, when Baker re ceived information that he was lodging at 22, Little Co ram -street, Brunswick-square, where he was apprehended, and several duplicates for various articles of plate were found in his possession. The prisoner, who is about 40 years of age, was shabbily attired, and looked care-worn. He said nothing, and Mr. LAING ordered the officers to communicate with the pawnbrokers and all the necessary witnesses, and he re manded the prisoner till their attendance. IViWan; Bevan and George Davies, two well-known pugilists in the neighbourhood of Battle-bridge, who were so dreadfully beaten that they could scarcely stand at the bar, were brought up in the custody of Serjeant Holt, Col lier, 94, and Brennan, 35, N division, charged with having been concerned in a desperate pugilistic contest. Thomas Lee, foreman to Mr. Rhodes, the cowkeeper, being sworn, stated, that yesterday morning, about eight o'clock, he received information that a mob of 500 or 600 persons were assembled in one of his master's fields at the back of Copenhagen House, to witness a prize fight, and that the combatants had been fightin g for nearly two hours. He gave information to Collier and Brennan, who accom panied him to the spot, where they found the prisoners in in an exhausted condition, with their faces horribly dis figured, fighting in a ring, backed by seconds and bottle holders, and the eyes and cheeks of Davies had been cut with some instrument, in order to enable him to " come to the scratch." On seeing the officers the seconds and bottle-holders ran off, and made their escape, leaving the prisoners in such a state of insensibility that it was found ne cessary to take them away in a cabriolet for medical assist- The property in the field was considerably damaged. Collier and Brennan corroborated this evidence. Mr. LAING asked Davies who and what he was ?—•The prisoner, whose head and face formed a complete contrast to every thing human, and partook of the bull-dog breed, his eyes being puffed up to blindness, his nose and jaws broken, his teeth loosened, and his lips projecting and swollen tremendously, with difficulty said, " I am a night man, and I works for Mister Miller." Mr. LAING—What have you to say to the charge ? Davies—Why, we had a trifling quurrel, and we agreed to settle it ; but we've both got the wust on it. Mr. LAING-4 shall order you both to find bail. He was then locked up. Mr. LAING—(to Bevan)—What are you ? Bevan— I am a nightman. He was so paralysed (having been so dreadfully beaten about the head and the body) that he was ready to drop, and could not answer any further questions, on which he was ordered to find bail, and he was supported out of the office. They were both afterwards bailed and set at liberty. James Bird, a milkman, of Rodney-street, Islington, was now charged with aiding and abetting the prisoners, as a second or bottle-holder. In his defence he said he was passing accidentally by, when they were deserted by the seconds, &c. ; and seeing the prisoner Bevan lying insensible on the ground, he merely sponged his face with cold water to recover him.— Discharged. Lee asked how he was to proceed for the damage done to the field. Mr. LAING informed him that every person assembled there was liable for the injury. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. William Stewart Matthews was yesterday brought before Mr. CONANT, charged with having stolen a quantity of plate from No. 6, Golden-square. Mrs. Sanders, a widow lady, stated that the prisoner recently lived with her as footman. He absconded, with out giving any notice of his intention, and shortly after wards it was ascertained that a considerable quantity of plate had been stolen from the butler's pantry. Stone, a police-constable, succeeding in apprehending the prisoner, and in tracing the property, which was found in the possession of the pawnbrokers. In defence, the prisoner admitted that he had acted a very ungrateful part towards his mistress, and begged for mercy. He was fully committed. Lydia Wimmins charged her master, Mr. Bryant, pro• prietor of a hotel in Conduit-street, with having assaulted her. ...__ The complainant stated that, on the day in question, her master came down into the kitchen, seized a shovel full of burning cinders, and threw them over her. It was ow ing, she said, to the " blessing of Providence" that she was not " consumed" on the spot. Her master then seized her, and scratched her head and neck very severely. The defendant was fined 20s. and costs. A well-known beggar, named John Sturgiss, was brought to this office by the officers of the Mendicity Society, charged with being a common vagrant. It was proved that the defendant was accustomed to solicit charity, and also that he went down areas, under pretence of asking for relief. When searched, the sum of 31. 17s. Bd. was found upon him. He was sent to the House of Correction. QUEEN-SQ UARE. A number of poor Italian lads, who have lately been im ported by fellows in Italy, to their vagabond masters in the purlieus of Leather-lane and St. Giles's, for the purpose of begging, in order to put money into the pockets of those by whom they are employed, have been charged at this office, by the police and Mendicity constables. Yesterday, Joseph Mansillini and Antonio Cavadanchi, two Italian lads, were brought before Messrs. WHITE and SHUTT, charged by Stratton, a Mendicity officer, who discovered them the evening previous in Stamford-street, exhibiting white mice and guinea pigs, and begging at the windows of the houses. Stratton stated that the Society had received information that about three hundred Italian boys had been imported into this country within the last fortnight, and he had elici ted from the prisoners that they formed part of the fresh importation, and resided with their masters at No. 12, Short's-gardens, Drury-lane, a notorious depot for Italian vagrancy. Stratton added that in consequence of his ex ertions last year to suppress the_system he had been marked by the Italian 'masters; and - threats had been held out of a most violent nature against him. Mr. WHITE told Stratton that if such threats were repeated, he should immediately apply to the Magistrates, and every piotection should be afforded him. When the prisoners were called on for their defence, they stated in Italian that they could not speak a word of English. - The Magistrates said that any place was better than the homes of their oppressive masters, and ordered them to be sent to Brixton for a month, and their white mice and guinea pigs to be disposed of, and the produce to be given to the Governor of the prison, to go towards their support while there. Much to the surprise of some of our leading archi tects, the foundation of that splendid mansion on the north side of Cavendish-square, upon which Mr. Watson Taylor expended upwards of one hundred thousand pounds, has given way in all directions ; it is now shored up. Lord Beresford bought it after the failure of the house of Mr. Taylor. It was formerly called " Amelia House," having been built in 1762 for the sister of George the Third. ante. GREECE. ATHENS, MARCH 31.—More than two years have now elapsed since Greece became a kingdom, and since the Regency arrived at Nauplia to govern it in the name of King Otho. In two short months he will attain his majority and assume the reins of government. It may not be uninte resting to examine how far the Regency have fulfilled their high mission, and in what state they will deliver over Greece to its Sovereign. The German papers contain accounts of the advancement of the Greeks in civilisation, the wise measures adopted by their rulers for their prosperity, and the encouragement given to agriculture and commerce. A plain statement of facts will serve to convince the English public that these accounts are all fabulous and devoid of truth. Greater blunders than those committed by the Regency cannot be conceived—greater incapacity or greater blindness to the wants of Greece could not be shown by any people except Bavarians. The root of the evil is—that the King of Bavaria insists on his plans of government be ing adopted, on the edicts of Munich being laws for Greece, and on treating the Greeks more as a conquered people, or a Bavarian colony, than as an independent nation. From the death of Capo d'lstria to the arrival of the Regency in 1833, Greece was in a state of anarchy. The laws and institutions framed by the Greeks under Capo d'lstria, however, existed, although temporily suspended. These laws were adapted to the habits of the people, who had begun to understand and to obey them. The best founded complaint against Capo d'lstria's rule was, that to serve Russian intrigues he interfered with justice, and made the tribunals a means of persecuting his political enemies. These Courts, however, under a paternal government; offered to the Greeks a ready redress for wrongs, and a cheap ad ministration of justice. The towns and villages had muni cipal bodies charged with local matters, and the government had its Prefets and Sous-Prefets, whose duties were clearly defined. It would have been the natural course of any rulers, on arriving in a country, where, from a political ca tastrophe, such as the assassination of Capo d'lstria, all government had been suspended, to have endeavoured at once to make use of the means which had been created by their predecessors, and to adopt, provisionally, the laws which the nation had sanctioned ; reserving to themselves, after they had acquired experience in the wants of the country, to suggest such improvements as might be found necessary. By putting in force the laws of Greece in ex istence under Capo d'lstria, and keeping a strict check on those appointed to execute them, the Greeks would have had tribunals of which the reign of anarchy had deprived them for fifteen months, and of which the Regency has still further deprived them for more than two years. What has been their conduct ? On their arrival, the Regency de clared that the laws in existence had no longer any force ; they framed three provisional Courts for the trial of crimes ; they suspended the municipal authorities ; they framed a code of civil and criminal law, without consulting any Greek lawyer, and without at all inquirinc , if the nation was willing to submit to it. They rejected all the codes formed by former governments, and sanctioned by national Con gresses ; and now that the tribunals are nominally esta blished, the Judges themselves declare that they cannot understand the law, and the people who have suits to pre fer cannot find any lawyers able to comprehend the forms necessary to advance a cause. Another measure was to disband the irregular troops. This was a necessary one, in order to destroy the power , and influence of these Janissaries ; but it ought to have been accompanied by an act of justice, and in setting at large seven or eight thousand men, who, with all their sins, had fought bravely for the independence of their country, some means of subsistence ought to have been provided for them ; on the contrary, nothing was done, the men were compelled either to become robbers, to emigrate to Turkey, or to starve. At that time the Regency might have formed a national corps of light troops of two thousand to three thousand men, selected from the best soldiers, and have thus secured the attachment, affection, and support of many of the old veterans of the war of independence. They neglected this, wished to force the Palikari to abandon his costume and his long-acquired habits, and to become a re gular soldier, with a leathern stock and a tight dress, after he had attained the meridian of life. The want of an army was evident, and the Government adopted the fatal mea sure of levying raw troops in Bavaria, at an enormous cost, to keep order amongst the Greeks, who for thirteen years had had arms in their hands. I need not state here what was the result—sickness, Maine, and Messenia, have done their sad work with these volunteers. Troubles began to arise ; the conspiracies of Colocotroni, and subsequently of the Russian party, caused the Government to fear for its existence ; and the Regency at last, adopting the advice of that arch-intriguer Colettis, created a number of superior officers from amongst his adherents the Rumeliots, and levied also a body of Palikari under Grivas ; thus showing their own weakness, and doing, at a great expense, what would have been a gracious boon on their arrival. The navy of Greece, which had performed such distin guished services for the cause, was treated in the same way as the army—no means were adopted to provide for the numbers of brave sailors belonging to the maritime communities of Hydra, Spezzia, and Ipsara, and who are languishing in poverty. A Bavarian Colonel was made Minister of Marine. Another glaring fault of the Regency—the measures it adopted respecting the national Church, declaring it inde pendent of the Patriarch, and confiscating the property of the minor monasteries, which had been formed by the pious offerings of the people. These measures have done more to alienate the affections of the people from the Regency than any other, and have given Russia a powerful weapon to work upon the superstitions of the Greeks, by insinuat ing that Otho wishes to change the religion of their fathers. When you add the fact that the Government has not made any grant, or taken any steps to rebuild the ruined churches, you may easily conceive the dissatisfaction of the Greeks at the interference of the Bavarians in their ecclesiastical affairs. Greece possesses vast national domains—their extent is stated to be 15 millions of acres, of which one-third are susceptible of cultivation. Surely a Government possessing the least intellect would have endeavoured to have utilised this rich possession, either by granting a part of it as in demnity to those ho had served their country, or by en couraging colonization. The Regency, however, have neither done the one nor the other, nay, they have refused to the Candiot and Samian refugees a portion of this land, and have compelled these brave Greeks to quit regenerated Hellas, and to return to the more paternal yoke of the Sultan from which their bravery had liberated them. The allies had generously procured by their guarantee a loan for Greece of 60 millions of francs, of which 40 mil lions have been paid, but not a farthing has been bestowed on a Greek. Bavaria has kept this money, and all Greece has seen of it are the gaudy tinsel uniforms of the Bavarian volunteers and civil officers—the travelling expenses and enormous pay of Bavarian fortune hunters, and some scores of train waggons for a country that only possesses mule tracks. With these facts before you, I think you will agree with me that the prospects of. Otho, when he mounts the throne in June next, are not very brilliant : an exhausted Exche quer—a discontented people—an expended loan—and an unorganised unpopular Administration, are what he will fidd. Not a school is established in the provinces, and merely the skeleton of an academy here, and a gymnasium at Nauplia. - This is the real state of Greece. The expecta tions which the Greeks form of immediate improvement in their affairs from. the accession of the King, and the disap pointment they will naturally experience from the difficul ties which the maladministration of the Regency has caused to the realization of these hopes, affords, too, matter for serious consideration ; and will place Otho, who is deserv edly popular, and sees with grief the'errors that are com .mitted in his name, in a most embarrassing position, from which it will be difficult for him to extricate himself. He must cast off the Bavarians, and call around hint -the most enlightened of his subjects. He must give them a national representation. The remarks of the public press on the rapid promotion of young Bavarians who enter the Greek army, and the neglect of the Greek officers, has caused the Minister of War (a Bavarian) to publish a statement of the number of officers and men in the service of this country in January last., with a view to refute the assertions of partiality towards the Bavarians. From this return it appears that the force of Greece consists of Greeks Bavarians Philhellenes Total 5,690 731 It would be sufficient to glance at the first line of this return, where one sees the enormous proportion of one officer to eight privates, to judge of its absurdity ; but on analyzing it, the truth of the complaints of the Greeks is manifest ; for of the 533 Greek officers there are 365 be longing to the corps of Invalides, or not employed, who are languishing on a miserable pittance of 16 to 20 drachmes per month (11s. 6d. to 1/. 95.), leaving only 168 Greek officers actually employed. We have the effective army, consisting of eight batta lions of troops of the Line, one battalion of Artillery, one From this return you will see that. there is not a single Greek promoted to the rank of Gener a l, C o l one l, Lieute nant-Colonel, or Major in the regular army , w hil st t h ere are 22 Bavarians holding these ranks. There are 40 Cap tains from Bavaria to 18 Greeks ; and it is only in the rank of Sub-Lieutenants where the Greeks equal the Bavarians in number. This is not all. The Bavarian officers not only receive a handsome allowance for their outfit on leav ing Bavaria, but have pay, rations, and allowances in Greece, to the extent of one-third more than the Greeks When these facts are stated, can you wonder at the discon tent of the Greeks, or their reluctance to enlist ? Taking the whole active force of Greece, including the gens d'armerie, we find the number of officers and men as follows : Greeks. Bavarians. 3290 1870 - 1 0 Soldiers Generals . Colonels . Lieutenant- Colonels Majors Captains 29 Lieutenants ..... 46 Sub-Lieutenants Those who have fought for their country—who have lost their all—nay worse, are suspected, and driven to despera tion. If Otho does not attend to their just claims, he will not reign long in Greece. Some soldiers are at work at a road from this place to Megura ; but at the rate at which the work proceeds, I fear the present generation will not witness its accomplish ment. This is the only essay of road-making yet projected or attempted in Greece. Building is going on rapidly here, but the edifices erecting are of little durability, and evince but little confidence, in this being long the capital. 0 COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. ADDRESS TO THE KING. A Court of Common Council was held yesterday, at Guildhall ; and owing to a private circular which had been addressed to the Tories, a very large attendance of that party took place, so that, a few minutes after twelve o'clock, the Court was filled. The Loan MAYOR took the Chair at twelve o'clock. Mr. DAVID WIRE rose and said, that he should throw himself upon the indulgence of the Court, while in a few brief observations he endeavoured to state the reasons which had induced him to bring forward the subject. The first was—because the question had often been asked— What did the City (the Common Council) intend to do with regard to the late change of the Ministry ? Did they intend to permit the King to be deceived—the country to be alarmed—and the friends of good order and govern ment to be dismayed, without speaking out their sentiments, without informing the King of the wishes and expectations of his people, and without setting a good example to all other parts of the country ? He was sure they did not.— (Cheers.) He was satisfied they had not changed their principles, or become lukewarm in the cause of Reform.— (Cheers.) But when they saw the mischievous activity of the Tories—when they witnessed their desire to uphold the Ministers of their choice—and when every place in the country was pouring out its trumpery addresses to Sir Robert Peel, agreed upon at hole-and-corner meetings— it surely became the Court to take the lead in proclaiming its sentiments and promulgating its opinions, lest it should be supposed that the deep-rooted conviction which it had so frequently expressed of the necessity of a thorough, searching, and wholesome reform had changed, or been al together destroyed.—(Cheers.) He, therefore, felt it to be his duty to originate the requisitions which had convened them together ; and let those share the blame of all the mischief which arises from continual agitation, who had caused the necessity of the present meeting. It was neither himself or his friends—they were tired of agitation— (Cheers)—and for that reason they would have been glad to have remained quiet ; but the extraordinary proceedings of the last five months rendered it impossible for them to look with indifference upon the aspect of public affairs, or to remain unmoved when such daring, but hitherto unsuc cessful, attempts were making to rob them of all the fruits which should result from the passing of the Reform Bill.—( Hear, hear.) He would now proceed to describe the nature of the resolutions which he 'should have the honour to propose for the adoption of the Court. The first was declaratory of the necessity and propriety of Reform in our Civil, Municipal, and Ecclesiastical Institutions, and he expected that the Court would unanimously agree to this, for all were Reformers now.—(Cheers.) The most inveterate Tory in that Court, even his Hon. Friend the Father of the Court (Mr. Dixon) would concede that Re form was necessary. It was so in all the civil branches of our polity. Upon the subject of Corporation Reform a strong feeling was abroad, evinced by the satisfaction with which the issuing of the Municipal Commission had been hailed, and the alacrity with which the people had given evidence respecting the vices and abuses of the present Corporations.—(Hear, hear.) Even in their own consti tution reform was necessary, popular as it was, useful as it had been, and easily as its vast powers were wielded in preserving order, suppressing crime, and protecting the li berties of the people. And if reform was necessary here, how much more was it necessary in the old, rotten, and corrupt Corporations which existed• in the country. They had been the strongholds of Toryism, the dens of corrup tion, the means by which a wicked and profligate Go vernment had so long triumphed over the known desires and wants of the nation.—(Hear.) The absolute necessity for ecclesiastical reform was still more apparent, for surely no one shut his eyes to the monstrous abuses which prevailed, in the shape of sinecure rectories, unless prebendaries, enor mous pluralities, and a dominant hierarchy.—(Loud cheers.) Such reforms his _resolution declared to be absolutely neces sary to uphold the honour and dignity of the Crown, and promote the well-being of the people. The next resolution he should submit would declare that the Reform Bill was only the harbinger and precursor of other Reforms. In this he thought the Court would also agree. He did not expect that any one would declare that it was a final measure, and that all the corruption of Corporations—the abuses and ab surdities of our laws—the iniquities of the ecclesiastical system in Ireland—the exclusion of Dissenters from their just rights—should be continued.—(Hear.) His next reso lution expressed regret at the sudden dismissal of Lord Melbourne, and the appointment, or rather, he might say, the usurpation of the most important offices of the State by the Duke of Wellington—usurpation which, in the better days of English liberty, would have been followed by an impeachment, lest a precedent so dangerous to the liberties of the people should have been followed by other states men.—(Hear, hear, and cries of " No, no.") His last reso lution expressed confidence that the re-appointment of Lord Melbourne would silence the fears of the people, and enable the King to fulfil his promise of sanctioning the adoption of measures calculated to effect those reforms which the nation demanded. He had then briefly stated the nature of the resolutions, and he entreated the Court to agree to them, because he thought that their adoption would strengthen the cause of Reform, and aid the Govern ment of the country to develop its measures.—(Cheers.) Mr. STACEY seconded the resolutions. Mr. Alderman BROWNY moved a resolution expressive of the devoted loyalty of bhe Corporation, and the gratification it afforded them that his Majesty intended to preserve the institutions of the country ; also their approbation of the conduct of the late Government in their disposal of Church property in the City to men of acknowledged worth and known piety ; and that they viewed with dis May the attempt made by Lord John Russell in his resolution to endanger the united Church of England and Ireland. Sir P. LAURIE said, though he rose to second the amend ment, he would rather that the previous question had been moved. He would fearlessly state his opinion upon the pre sent occasion. —(Hear, hear.) When the Duke of Welling ton was put in possession of the Government of the country a cry of agitation was raised. The cry 'came from head quarters.---(Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") Yes, he would say from head-quarters, and so anxious were. they that such should exist, that they were not satisfied until they called upon the,Lord Mayor to convene a meeting.—(Cheers.) His Lordship said that he was not aware of any agitation ; but they insisted that there was agitatiok, and it was on 'Change.—(Laughter and cheers.) In vain was Mr. Agi tation sought for, but he was not to be found.—(Laughter and loud cheers.) By the address of the 27th of Novem. ber, the late Administration were then called the lath and plaster Administration.—(oh.) Yes, he would say that they were called the lath and plaster Administration. They were approaching the state of the Americans. Only the other day, when there was an election for a President; Mr. Clay was obliged to put on a bad hat to conciliate their suffrages.—(Laughter.) It was but too true, and some of the present Administration might be obliged, befOre they left this world to adopt the same expedient.—(Loud laughter.) Was this country to be swamped by the Irish and Scotch boroughs ? The time was fast approaching when the neglected Lord Brougham would return to the Wool sack.—(Loud cheers.) And what would follow ? The Protestant Church would be handed over to the Catholics. —(Cries of " Oh, oh.") He was the other evening at a lecture given by Dr. Lardner, end a most curious fact was mentioned in allusion to Hallty's comet. In the year 1350 there was a comet, which it was supposed had produced a plague, and the priests excommunicated it.—(Loud laughter, r groans, hisses, and the greatest scene of uproar.)
