COMMON COUNCIL. A Court of Common Council was held yester day at Guildhall for general husinets. The Committee for managing Subscriptions for the relief of the distressed Col(Mists at the Cape of Good Hoppe, pre sented a memorial requesting a donation in'aid of that sub scription, which was referred to the Committee for general purposes. The Bridge House Committee delivered in a Report on con sidering the Bills in Parliament for the proposed St. Katherine's and the South London Docks, in which they recommended the Court to oppose the same. A considerable discussion took place on the motion to agree witk the Report; and an Amendment was moved—" Except so much thereof as related to the proposed Docks at St. Katha rine's," which was agreed to. The Finance Committee reported that they had received a communication from 3lr. Alderman \Wood, stating that certain individuals had offered to lend the Corporation a sufficient sum of money at 41. per cent. to discharge the several public debts in respect of the Orphans' Fund, the Thames Navig a ti on Ac count, and the Coal-Market Fund, amounting to upwards of G 42,000/. which are now hearing an interest of 51. per cent., which offer the Committee were of opinion should be accepted, and that an application should be made to Parliament for an Act authorising the raising such monies and charging the same on those respective funds accordingly. The Court,. after a short discussion, agrded, with the Report., and directed Petitions to be immediately presented to Parlia ment for leave to bring in a Bill for effecting this important purpose, and the Committee were empowered to prosecute the Petition as they should be advised.

Mr. WI NST AN La Y eipresied iegtet that 4 rmstakela notion had gone forth, that Members were to be admitted by ballot, than which nothing could be more erroneous or dissonant to the sentiments of those who conducted the Institution ; and he hoped the Gentletuen connected with the Press would make it known, that the only eligibility required from applicants was, that they be recommended by a Member. After some remarks by Mr. MAlViticti, and a desiltorY conversation among the Members as to the hour when the read ing-zoom should close, it was agreed that it should iCinain open until eight o'clock in the winter and nine in the summer. A Committee was then appointed, conaiSting of Messrs. Shuttleworth, Foster, and Adams, Directors; and Messrs. Bailey, Goldismid, Upton, and Carrick,. PrOprietciri.

HARDING"; rose for the purpoSe of moving " that the Committee on the above Bill be discharged &OM farther proceeding thereon." This be did, because the standing or ders which applied to private Bills had not been complied with in reference to, certain _individuals whose estates would be in jured if the meastire were carried. It teas proposed that the railway ShOuld'eroiis a road belonging to a Noble Friend of his (the Marquis of Londonderry), and that it shot'ld lie carried on for a cons i de r abl e distance near hi s pa r k. This . would be a very great nui s a n ce, and was, the leis justifiable, he:aitse any bene fit which th e ra ilway wai.Calcidated 'to produce would be reaped by other's, WhoSe estate's would • notibe.affected by the intended work. The standing orders relative, to private Bills might to be strictly supported: and as the prettent rC.eitsure was clandes_ finely brought into the House, 1 1 „. 01 ,1d g i ve it every opposi tion in his pout'. lieeorieltid e ro dby o , iing for 'the discha r g e of the Committee from an y further p r o c t et ling on this An lionothible 311:ill:mu under the ( gallery, Whine name wa could not learn, said a few words in rav(Jor of the motion, which he seconded. Lord LOWTHER defended the measure as one which would . be extremely advantageous to th e etaintry. He therefore wished the Bill to, b e re-committed. , It was said that the, landed pro prietors were adverse to . trie railw ay ; but the fact was, that the real grou nd ofopposi non gfm ro the ;Noble Marquis' to whom allusion had bee? made, although he waft prepared to contend that the proPtrsed work would not touch an inch of that noble person's estate. The true reason of the opposition manifested against the measure wiis, a irpirit of jealousy which existed in tile north of .DurhaM, As to Abiding this additional facility fo r die co nveyance of that valuable commodity, coals, to the metropolis and elsewhere. Being, perfectly convinced of the utility of the railway, lie 'should move, as an amendment, " that the skid Bill be re-&iintnitted." Sir J. lORKF rose to, second the amendment of the Noble Lard. Jae did not wish to make use of hard word', but the opposition to the measure appeared to him to be'so extreme a job—(a laugh) —that he quitted the Committee :altogether. The evidenee of Mr. Wilght, Whose estate, it was said, would be affected by the work, seemed to be ip wrong—(a laugh)--so coquettish—now assenting to, and then dissenting from the measurethat be could Make nothing of it. His Gallant Friend had said a great deal 'about the hardship of carrying this road through a Noble Lord's estate ; but on other Occasions they heard nothing of the impropriety of making encroach ments on private property, where a great public work required it. Thus, when it was proposed to erect a bridge at Hammer smith, the question of private property was not allowed to in terfere with the measure. Mere it was, proposed to form a vast public work, by means of Which a larger supply of coals Would be furnished to the metropolis, and the existing mo nopoly would be weakened ; here there was a great field open ed for the employment of capital for a useful purpose ; and therefore he for one could not consent to the abandonment of the measure, on the plan that the road Would pass near a Noble man's estate. Lord MILTON Said, the real question in thii case was, whether the rivers Tyne and Wear should be the only outlets for the carriage of coals, or whether the river Tees 'should not also be included ?—(Hear, hear I)—The West Hiding of York shire was " stippiied ivtth coals by meant 'Of land:carriage, and the object of this measure was to transport that article by a rail way Which should conic down to the mouth of the Tees; in stead of employing the ordinary mode of carrying it. This would be cheaper and more expeditious. In his opinion, gen tlemen who wished to have, this meas ure - fairly considered, would not vote for a motion hich Would at once put a stop to it, without due inquiry before a CoMmittee. The Gallant Offi cer (sir H. Hardinge) inti Mated that he opposed the bill on behalf of the landed interest: Ile (1,60 Milton), hoWeier be lieved that there was not a landed Proprietor against the Mea sure, except, a Mr. Wright, ,Who,.liad Assented and dissented, by alternationi, 'often, that it was difficult to understand Whe ther he was hostile or friendly to the projected Work. Colonel WOOD said, that none of the local Proprietor's Were in f'avou'r of . the measure. The Hon: Member for &Wish (Mi. ltuksell) who would derive all the benefit from - the intended work, would not suffer it to pass through his own groand, 114 though by taking that course it would be brought two miles nearer to the sea. He had chosen a circuitous route to the sea; and by that means interfered with the estate of the Marquis of Londonderry. It was complained that Mr. Wright hail *alter:: ed his opinion: The reason was, because the line of read Which wits at first comronnicated to him was subieqtiently . changed. With respect to him it was quite dear that the 'Standing orders had not been complied with, and therefore they ought not to proceed with the bill. Mr. IL SUM NBR could not consent to this itirittnary mode . of oversetting a Bill which would uteittenffibly promote the public interest. If the proposed railway were formed, there • would be a greater and a more rapid supply‘of coals in the Lou don market: . . . • . ‘, ,• • . • . Alderman BRIDGES said a few word*, which were in' 'it dible in the gallery:, • . . • .. • . Mr. CLIRWY.N would roie‘for the.re-cominittal Of theßill, uncle the assurance of:th e NOhle Lord (Lowther) that the rail road would not pass over.,3lr. Wright's. estate, Sir A. HAR DINGE said, if the gentlemen who sapportttl the Bill would, assure him that the railway• would. nit go npar the estate of the Marquis of Londonderry, he should . withdraw alho positron:. He.opposed the measure entiiely . nn account of the injury it would do, to., the - property of the; Nohle.,Mitr. quis, who was now building a house in the directiOn Of which it was intended to carry the railway. This. was his sole „mo tive for raising his voice, against the Bill.. He bad no. wish whatever. to crush any r ivalry or competition in the Coal trade. Mr. LITTLETON spoke in favour of the-11111. The House then divided, and there appeared— For the Amendment - - 114 For the original motion • 6(.4 Majority - - - • - 45 On our return to the gallery we found the House discussing the question whether, before the re-committal of the Bill, a Committee consistifigof slerithers not Connected in any way with the Bill should . not he appointed, to examine whether any and what inconvenience had arisen from the non-compliance with the standing Orders. Sitch a Committee was at length appointed. • • HIDES AND SKINS BILL. Petitions against this Bill were presented &Um the butchers of Liskeard by Sir W.

HIDES' REGULATION DILI,. Petitions, praying for the repeal of the existing regulations relating to hides and skins, were presented by :Ur. It. HILL, from the Butchers of Whitchurch ,• by Mr. J. NVILDIAms, from the Butchers of Lincoln ;- by Mr. LINDSAY, from the Fleshers of St. Andrew's ; and by Mr. Ilu.stE, from , the Butchers of the Canongate, Edinburgh. Tbe Hon. Member said, the latter petition stated that the existing laws, so far from preventing injury to hides, acted as a tax on the con sumers of leather ; for the inspectors were Usually paid by the score of hides without ever looking at them. To vote against the repeal of those laws was, therefore, to vote for the conti nuance of the tax on leather. Alr. HUAIE presented also :another Petition from the But chers of St. Alarylebone and St. Giles in favour of the repeal; but praying, at the same time, that the Acts of the 43d and the 48th of the late King might also be repealed ; because, by those Acts, the latter of which was confined to the metropolis, • fines were imposed on the petitioners which it was not intended to remove by the Bill now before the House. The Hon. Gen tleman entered into a statement of the average annual amount paid in fines and feet' to the inspectors, the effects of which were to increase the price of leather. Mr. HOBHOUSE presented two Petitions to the same effect from the Butchers of Clare and Newport-markets. Mr. LUSH INGTON, in reply to the two Hon. Members, said that the Act of the 48th of Ge0..111. was a local Act, and he could not, consistently with the forma of the House, now make that alteration which was prayed by the petitions. With out pledging himself on the subject, he was ready to say that he should be perfectly willing, at a more fitting opportunity, to consider the validity of die suggestions raised by them, Petitions in.favour of the bill were presented by Mr.. Beau mont, from the butchers of North. Shields; by Sir AL.W. Ridley, from Newcastle-upon-Tyne; by Alderman Wood, from Aldgate and Ni'llitechapel; by Mr. Bernal, from Stroud, Ro chester, and Chatham, and from St. George's Bloomsbury ; by Mr. Curteis, from Brighton ; and by Mr. Lushington, from Canterbury,.—all of which were ordered to lie on the table, and to be printed. . . , • • -I , RENCII SQUADRON OFF THE BRAZILS. Sir JAMES AI ACK IN TOSIL in rising to.present apetition, took the opportunity which this purpose afforded hits of putting a question to the Right Hon. the Secretary of He was induced to do so from the rumours which were. prevalent. of a French naval force having appeared of the coast of the Brazils. Thoge rumours had spread to a considerable extent; and as he (Sir .1. Mackintosh) had reason to know, as well from public sources as from private information which had reached him, they had exercised a great influence over all the commercial classes of this coantry, by the apprehensions to which Oleg had given birth, it was in the sincere hope that the answer of the Right Hon. Gentleman would remove Thotte apprehensions, that he begged now' to ask him, whether his Majesty's Govern ment had reason to believe that.a French squadron had actually arrived off the Brazilian . coast? And if they had, whether an explanation had been demanded anti received.by the Govern ment as to the muse of the appearance of that force; .and further, whether the reply which had been . received Was au& as to confirm. or to remove the alarni which had been occasion ed.hy the appearance of the squadron ? .Mr. CANNING hatl.nti objection to reply, as far as he was able to the Atiestions of the Hon. Member. .•It was.true•that, a feW French ships arriving from different destinations had reach, ed, the port of the Brazils together. The rumours whieli had r got abroad In consequence of this circumstance originated, he believed, in the statement. of some of the • French officers that they expected mote ships to join them in that port. He (Mr. Canning) had already demanded and received stich, an explana tion as the French Ambassador resident there ytit . s . enabled to give ; and from that explanation he had every reason to helieve • that the statement Of the officers, and the rumours which it had occasioned, were . altogether false.. Ile..had also demanded ab explanation from the French Government, and he had no doubt that the lapse of a few days would enable him still mOrOiatii factOrilY to contradict the report which had occasioned so much alarm. Sir J. MACKINTOSH then presented to petitions, One twin the butchers of Knaresborough, in favour or the Hides' Regu lation Bill, and one from theTannera against it. • tiAmi Petitions against the Bill wete presented bY Mr. rs from the Tanners of Whitchurch ; by Sir M.

Mr. S. RICE supported the petition and said that few of those presented at the Bar. of the Honse deserved its attention' more than those of the City Companies who hold lands in Ire land. To those Companies we were.indebted fur much of the infOrMation, and for inostof the improvement which has lately been bestowed upon Ireland. . Mr. DAWSON bore teitimony, to the generous 'manner fa which the London companies managed the estates belonging to them. They had bitilt schools, churches, Roman Catholic chapels, rind dispcnpiiries, and supported them all in the Most liberal way. Still he was convinced that unless something was done in time to repair the - cathedral church, it would fill dowu, and the Protestant inhabitants be, left without a fit place .of worship, and for this reason, ready as he , was to admit the claims of the companies to the attention of the Houle, he trusted to be able to show thatthe Bill against which this pets. lion was directed wits abSolutely necessary. Mr. Alderman WOOD presented another petition - froth the same Company, praying to be heard by counsel against the Bill alluded to. _ After a few words from Sir J. NtwPORT and Sir 0. HILL, the petitions were ordered to be printed. Mr. Alderman WOOD presented a petition from Watford, praying for the repeal of the House and Window-tax. On the motion of Mr. LUSH INGTON, the report on the British Museum Bill was brought up, the amendment's agreed to, and the third reading fixed tbr to-morrow. Mr. GOULBURN moved the second reading . 6f the Irish Tithe Composition Pill, and proposed to postpone the disciit- Sion until a future stage of the Bill. Mr. GRATTAN had intended to oppOse this bill whenever the motion for the second readingShoidd occur. It appeared to him to be a measure full of danger to the interests of land ed proprietors. So far from its, being, as was expected, an aMendment of the bill of laSt session, it was rather to be consi dered as an aggravation of 'all that which was peculiarly objec tionable in the bill of last session. The power of requiring the production of leasei, papers;. and dOeumentit connected with titles, was oppresSiVe in the extreme. In short, the landed in terest were completely sacrificed to the advantage of the Clergy, and the measure was altogether so completely obj ec tionabl e . that hi: would certainly move for the second reeding this day- NIX months. Mr. DENNIS BROWNE justified the 'application of the powers given by the conStabulary act - argainSt the complaints of an Lion. Gentleman opposite, and assured the House that in his own count} , the conitahles were impartially ChoSen from among strangerS, and that their conduct had given permanent peace to the district. Sir J. NEWPORT recommended postponement, with a view to a complete discussion of the merits of the bill. . . . . . . Lord OXMANSTON did not approve of getting rid of the bill by the amendment now threatened. At the same time he could not approve of the bill,as a ;measure of sufficient rdiel. It rather appeared to him that the bill gave. the greatest advan tages to the Rectors, whO were likely to be the most avaricious. Ile thought that the better way would be to go into the discus sion at length upon the next Stage, in order to discover how far it might be found capable of improvement. Mr. GOUI,PURN expressed his readinets to giie every explanation which his responsibility as the Mover of this bill might he supposed to require from him: but the proper way to come at any such explanation would he to reject the amendment, and let the bill go for Ward to a Comthittee, where it might undergo improvement. He did not deny that several of the clauses might admit of . modification— that which required the production of papers and titles was particularly fit for such deliberation. As to t i he question of oaths, and the penalty of 101., he would not absolutely insist upon that very modification of the clause : but if any others were to be adoped, it must be suggested .by the House-when resolved into the Committee. This might be an insufficient remedy, as it was asserted by those who held the same langtiage towards his Bill of last Session. With regard to the last named Bill, he had the satisfaction to know that it bad generally ope rated in a satisfactory manner ; and, whateVer might be said of it, he had at least the satisfaction of knowing, that the country looked up to it as the only sure measure of relief—thanki to the generous support and intelligence with which it had been received. He justified what he had done by the triumphant success which had folloited. As to that particular clause which had been denominated " the trap clause," though it did by no means deserve so odious an epithet, it was only inserted to prevent the successor from suffering through any fraud or con trivance in compositions made with the preceding incumbent; and he defied Honourable Gentlemen to produce an instance, its 90 parishes, where any inconvenience had been incurred there from to the payers. Ile congratulated• himself on having. so . entirely overcome the difficulties which opposed him in the nature and progress of the Bill; and exhorted the House icy reject the amendment. Sir J. NEWPORT objected to this Bill ini , lgra e t c :c a ph us b e e i t t te w r as il an a aggravation instead of an amendment of the evils in. that of last onion. He did not mean to object, generally, to the principle • of amendment; but he was decidedly adverse to a Bill which, professing to be an emendation of .'a former one, was any thing but whit it so. professed to be. • The only way in which, as it appeared to bits, it was capable of receiving any amendment; would be, as a first step,- to omit every word it at present con tabled, except the preamble, and to substitute, in the plage of the clauses it now presented, others that should be really effear tual to meet the evil eoniplained of.
