CABINET UPHOLSTERY and BED DING, at the CABINET-MAKERS' TRADING SOCIETY, 71, LEADENHALL-STREET, enrolled agree ably to Act of Parliament; being the Manufacturers in all its branches. The system upon which this is conducted precludes the pos sibility of competition for cheapness, quality, and durability, as no house in London can manufacture at their prices. The Society wishes it to be thoroughly understood that they do not receive hawked goods for sale, like the baracers and haber dashers, but they make every article themselves, which enables them confidently to warrant their goods of the best materials, and if any fault appears within twelve months, it will be made good free of charge. A trial is earnestly solicited of those about to furnish, as the only criterion by which the merits and de cided advantage of purchasing at this establishment can be fairly estimated. The funds of this Society provide for the members in sick ness, old age, and burial ; they therefore sincerely hope that their humble endeavours will meet with public patronage. Estimates given, and orders punctually executed; and lists of prices may be had, from which the following is an extract • Mahogany loungingrehairs, - 63vered with leather, with spring seats, 455. each ; mahogany chairs in horse-hair seating, 13s. 9d. each ; Trafalgar, 17s. 6d. ditto ; mahogany sofas, 903. each ; mahogany Pembroke tables, 21s. ; mahogany four-post bed steads, 60s. ; tent ditto, 20s. ; furniture, ditto, '2os. ; japanned chairs, 25.; cane-seat ditto, 3s. 6d. ; japanned stands and dress ing -tables, 6s. each ; japanned drawers, 345. earls ' • mahogany ditto, 445. ; feather beds and mattresses, warranted free from dust or smell, or the money returned ; solid rose-wood chairs, stuffed with horse-hair, from 255. each ; couches, 61. 10s. ; ditto 100 tables, from 4/. 10s. ; mahogany ditto, 70s. each ; fancy chairs, 7s. 6d. each.

PINE respectfully recommends persons who habi tually take Opening Medicines, to abandon the injurious prat tice for the gentle yet instantaneous operation of a little plain water, applied by means of Dr. Scott's APERITIVE FOUN TAIN, which having been filled from the toilet jug, may be conveyed, unperceived, in the pocket or in a lady's reticule, to any appropriate place; conferring upon the use of the Lave ment every convenience and comfort that can be wished for by the most infirm invalid or timid female, especially of excluding air W. P. begs also to announce that he has supplied more than 10,000 deaf persons with Dr. Scott's CORNETS, which, to meet the convenience of all c.asses, are ,constructed of the smallest size to which philosophical principles limit the utility of practical acoustics ; and below which, no art or contrivance is of the least service ! They may at any time be fixed upon the ears in a moment, and. as easily removed. Hats, caps, and bonnets may be put on over them, which permits of their being worn abroad as well as at home ; and they are therefore available at church, public assemblies, and places of business, ensuring the perpetual enjoyment of hearing to the deaf, through all the varied pursuits and pleasures of society. To be procured only of Mr. W. Pine, Superintendent at Dr. Scott's Medical Repository, 369, Strand (three doors from Exeter-hall), London. ROWLANDS' MACASSA It OIL.

A CARD. kJ EDD 0 N'S AROMATIC LOZENGES of STEEL are found by experience to possess the most extraordinary powers in the cure of disorders incidental to youth of both sexes. For improving debilitated, relaxed, or broken constitu. tions, there decidedly is not so excellent a remedy in the universe. When the weak, the languid, the emaciated of either sex, make a trial of this medicine, they find their spirits exhilarated, their strength recruited, their faculties renovated, and all the alarming symptoms of approaching consumption subside. When the most important func tions of life are suspended, and those who are invalids by inheritance or impradence are reduced to the most deplorable state of nervous debility, it is not in despair that relief is to be found. It has been as. certained, beyond a doubt, that these circumstances are oc casioned by a general or partial relaxation or weakness in either sex ; and it is equally certain that SEDDON'S genuine AROMATIC LOZENGES of STEEL are the best, if not the only remedy ever diScovered for this species of debility. When taken into the stomach, they immediately diffuse themselves like a vapour through every por--, producing effects at once delightful, salutary, and permanent. W hen the spark of life begins to grow dim, the circulation' languid, and the faculties paralysed, these Lozenges are found to give tone to the nerves, exhiiirate the animal spirits, invigorate the body, and re-animate the whole man. When aversion to exercise, loss or depravity of appetite, and pallid countenance, in dicate approaching consumption, the delicate lemßle will be preserved and restored to health and society by the benign influence of this medicine.

A CHE afflicted with GOUT, RHEUMA LUMBAGO, SCIATICA, TIC-DOLO in the HEAD and FACE, often mistaken for the &c. &c. There is no medicine to whose praise higher and more numerous testimonials have been given, than to BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PlLLS,—from all parts of the Kingdom, and every rank in society, their great efficacy is acknowledged. The recent case of the Chevalier de le Garde, Chamberlain to Stanislaus, late King of Poland, is one of the mot convincing proofs of their great and extra ordinary virtues.

LONDON, SATURDAY. MARCH 23, 18A. W ARD O O UT F 2 F 2d A m li RING IB3 D 9 oN wrni• At a WARD MEETING, held at the New Court, Old Bailey, before the Worshipful JAMES HARMER, Esq., Al derman of the Ward, pursuant to a Requisition numerously and respectably signed, " For the purpose of taking into considera tion the propriety of petitioning the Houses of Parliament against a Bill intituled ' A Bill for Improving the Police in and near the Metropolis,' which seeks to deprive the Citizens of London of the ancient right of regulating their own Pdlice." Resolved unanimously—That the experience of centuries has proved beyond all controversy, that amongst the best safeguards of liberty has always been found the maintenance of municipal institutions constituted on a popular elective basis, and thus endowinglarge bodies of citizens with public rights, and entrust ing to them the di sc h arge o f pu bli c d ut i es . Resolved—Th a t this Ward meetinlt. views with sincere re gret, the introduction of a Bill into the House of Commons by Mr. Fox Mauls and Lord John Russell, purporting " to im prove the police of this City," and which Bill recognizes the creation of many new offences, which are to receive summary punishment without the intervention of Juries or through the elective and established Magistrates of the this City. Resolved—That the Citizens of London have for upwards of 600 years enjoyed the full liberty of appointing, regulating, and wholly directing the watching and police of this City, and at this period they possess not only a good and efficient police, but one equal, if ne t super i or , to any t h at ex i sts i n any par t o f this kingdom, consequently there is not the slightest necessity for the interference of Government on this subject, especially if that Government who have always professed to respect the rights and privileges of, and, above all, to revere the advan tages which result to the people from, the exercise of self-go vernment, in all matters connected with their general welfare. Resolved—That the Bill in question is a Winton, arbitrary and unconstitutional interference with the ancient liberties, rights, and privileges of the citizens of London, without pro ducing any possible practical advantage to any other part of the community; this meeting has, therefore, no hesitation in pro nouncing it a flagrant, gross, and impolitic violation of the rights and charters of this City, which no Fast Government, in the most violent periods of our history, ever attempted. Resolved—That this meeting deplores the strong predilec tion of the present Ministers for establishing a system of cen tralization, by which the Government is made everything, and the People nothing. Such a system may suit the views of tyrannical and despotic Governments, and may be tolerated by people long accustomed to arbitrary laws, but. is wholly incom patible with the inherent love of liberty which the people of Eng,land have for many centuries possessed, and which they will not tamely surrender. Resolved—That this meeting cannot refrain from expressing its astonishment at the inconsistency of the present Govern ment, in bestowing on the new and reformed Munieipal Insti tutions of Great Britain the right of watching and protecting themselves, whilst they now attempt to deprive the citizens of London of a similar right, which they have not only for so many centuries enjoyed, but have at all times exercised with great public advantage. Resolved—'chat a Petition founded on the foregoing Resolu tions, addressed to both Houses of Parliament, be prepared ; and that Lord Brougham be requested to present it to the House of Lords, and Sir Matthew Wood, Bart., to the House of Commons; and that the support of every Member of both Houses of Parliament, who values public liberty, be earnestly solicited to give his opposition to the tyrannical and unconstitu tional measure which seeks to deprive the City of its ancient rights and privileges, and to establish a precedent highly dan gerous to the liberties of the whole British people. Resolved unanimously—That the thanks of this meeting be presented to the Worshipful James Harmer, Esq., Alderman of this Ward, for his ready compliance with the requisition pre sented to him upon this as upon all former occasions,--for his consistent advocacy in support of the rights and privileges of his fellow-citizens—for his exertions in the reformation of all r..al abuses—for his uniform urbanity to the inhabitants of this Ward—and for his able and impartial conduct in the Chair this day.

The whole of the clauses in this Bill were agreed to, with the exception of that which proposes to raise the sum of 1,000,000/.

Births, Deaths, and Marriages" is published this day, by Mr. Bentley, who has also recently, published " The Cabinet Minister," a novel, by Mrs. Gore. THE YOUTH or $l-lAKSPEARE.—As every thing which relates to Shakspeare is matter of universal in terest, we have no doubt but that this book, which is very pleasingly written, and with considerable spirit and know ledge, will become a very general favourite. Its very title is such as to carry it into every circulating library in the kingdom, and to push it into the hands of a much su perior description of readers. The book is employed as a kind of canvas upon which to paint with much vivid co louring the contemporary characters of Shakspcare's age, and we find here delineated, not only the youth of Shak speare, but the youth and manhood, also, of those with whom he lived and flourished. It is one of those pictu resque historical romances which, taking an eminent elm ratter as a leading figure of the foreground of a tableau, assembles around it all that is eminent, and illustrious in the era in which he lived, and thus . - gfwposes a - kind of fa mily picture of an age gone by. We have here assembled round Shakspeare, and forming a sort of suite and appen dage to his poetical advancement, Sir Philip Sydney, Sir Walter Ral,•ira, Ben Jonson, Burbage, the Manager of the Glebe Theatre, Lords Essex and Southampton, and all the other wits, generals, and statesmen of the splendid reign of Queen Elizabeth.--Messenger. FATAL OCCURRENCE BY THE DUKE OF BRUNSWICK'S CARRIAGE.— Yesterday morning, about seven o'clock, as his Serene Highness the Duke of Brunswick was proceeding in his carriage, which was going at a quick rate along Wigmore-street, Cavendish-square, the horses ran against and knocked down a poor boy, named Mills, between eight and nine years of age, and the wheels of the vehicle passing over his body killed him upon the spot. Mr. Foster and Mr. Clarke, surgeons, dwelling in the neighbourhood, examined the deceased (who immedi ately after the lamentable occurrence was removed to his parents' rzsidence in Barrett's-court, Oxford-street,) and ascertained that in addition to his collar bone being frac tured, six or seven of his ribs were broken, a portion of which had penetrated the lungs. The driver, who was perfectly sober, was subsequently taken into custody, at the Duke's mansion in Bryanston-square, by Sergeant Harri„ son, of the D division, and conveyed to the station-house, preparatory to his undergoing an examination before the Magistrates of Marylebone-office this day. TITHES.—LORD STA NLEY.—The following letter appears in the Tipperary - Free Press of Saturday, relative to a paragraph which appeared in a former pub. lication of that Journal Clonmel, March 13.—Sir,_I have just seen a paragraph in your paper of the 9th inst., stating that Lord Stanley has remitted the rent-charge to his tenantry. I beg you will have the kindness, at your earliest convenience, to give this statement a positive con tradiction, it being his Lordship's intention to recover the rent-charge from all his tenants, except from those whose holdings have come under the operation of the Tithe Act of 1822. I remain, Sir, your obedient servant, I'l-vistas BOLTON." ARREST OF MURDERERS. The Nenagh police succeeded in capturing eight men on Mond a y night, talking over the very deed that they had committed —the murder of the old man Hanley. Three of them were identified, beyond all doubt, as the murderers.— Nenagh Guardian. ICEBERGS IN THE ATLANTIC.--Several ves sels which have arrived within the last fortnight were in terrupted in their progress by getting entangled in fields of floating ice. The George Washington, the Elizabeth Bruce, and the South America, were entangled among floating icebergs for thirty hours. The first iceberg the ship fell in with rose from fifty to sixty feet above the level of the sea. It was dark when she approached it, and Cap-• tain Barstow very wisely resolved to lie to till daylight. About two o'clock, when the moon broke out from the dense clouds in \vhich she had been previously enveloped, and threw her light on the numerous icebergs, shooting up like hoary cliffs, which were visible all round the horizon, the spectacle is described by the persons who beheld it as having been awfully sublime. The ice reflected the beams of the moon, and the combination produced a mild splendour, which approached, if it did not rival, the light of day. The presence of so much floating ice in the Atlantic, as far down as latitude 44, is a rather unusual occurrence.—Liverpool THE JULY COLUMN IN P/pm—The capital for the Column of July, now erecting on the Place de la 13astille, which, as we stated some time ago, was cast in one mould, was on Sunday conveyed along the Boulevards from the foundry of Messrs. Soyer and Inge, in the Faubourg du Roule, to its destination. It was in the rough staid as it came from the mould, with a good deal of plaister in the interstices ; but enough was to be seen to enable the spectators to judge of, and admire its elegant design and beautiful proportions, as well as its colossal magnitude. It was placed on a low but strong truck of adequate size, on four wheels, drawn by twelve powerful horses. It was decorated with a stand of colours at each of the four corners, and surmounted by an immense crown of foliage. Strong cords were attached to it, by which about 200 men held it back when going down a de scent in its may, and assisted the horses in mounting the rising grounds. It was escorted by numerous sergens de ville, and a small detachment of infantry. Numerous crowds watched the progress of this moving mass, which did not arrive at the Place de la Bastille till late in the evening, al though it set off before eleven in the morning. The dimen sions of this capital, which is of the Corinthian order, are 10 feet in height, and 18 feet in width, across the abacus. Its weight is 23,0001b5., and that of the vehicle which conveyed it was 10,0001bs. From the jarring motion of the vehicle, the capital got cracked in some places before it arrived at the Place de la Bastille, and one of the acanthus leaves was torn. The lower partsof the magnificent bronze column are in course of placing, and the engineer is said to have ex pressed himself confidently as to the possibility of the whale being completed by July.—Paris Paper. STEEPLE CHASING.—The character of a people may fairly be judged of by their public amuse ments ; and in this point of view, while we rejoice to see boxing matches and prize fir.,hts nearly at an end, it may be doubted whether the novel taste for steeple chases is not of an equally heartless brutalising nature.—Morn. Herald. Mr. Hawes and Mr. Drinkwater, the inventor and drawer of the Police Bills, have evidently brought themselves into the suds; the former, it is said, now begins to see the folly of silencing every witness before his Com mittee whose opinions were opposed to his wild projects. - Morning Herald. A TELLING PUN.—Richmond bridge is now opened free every day except Sunday to foot passengers. " I wonder," said X., meeting H. in the strand, •' if one can also cross Waterloo-bridge without paying ?" Go and ask," answered H., " and you will be tolled!"—Lite rary Gazette. ACCIDENT TO A HoßsE.—Ycsterday a horse, valued at 75 guineas, the property of Mr. Cox, livery stable-keeper, Stamford-street, Blackfriars- road, while being driven in a gig by an intending purchaser, was run against by a horse and cart, and the shaft penetrating the animal's chest, it fell down dead almost immediately. CAB ACClDENT.—Yesterday morning, between seven and eight o'clock, a poor a ged woman, nam e d Rachael Beckley, in crossing the end of East -street, Lamb's Conduit-street, was knocked down by a cab, and had her left arm broken. She was removed to the Uni versity College Hospital. ANNIVERSARY OF THE BATTL E OF ALEXANDRIA.—Yesterday morning, being the thirty-eighth anniversary of the battle of Alexandria, and lamented death of General Sir Ralph Abercrombie, the first bat talion of Coldstream Guards marched from out of the Wellington Barracks , St. James ' s- p ark, for t he purpose o f mounting the Queen's G uard at St. James 's_Palace, w i t h their colours decorated with laurel, the regiment having distinguished itself in the engagement. THE EXECUTION AT HERTFORD.--.E FFECTS , PECTS UPON THE Caown.---The execution at Hertford on Wed nesday last, of a third convict, for the murder at Tewin, in 1837, has already been reported in our columns. We now me°. insert from the Hertford Reformer some a ccount of the effects of this tragical ex hibition upon those wh o were as sembled to witness it. Around the s caffol d , " Th e rity of the p eo ple assembled were either boys of from J b e _ tween ten and seventeen years of ag e, or young servant girls ; thieve s , poachers, v agrants, and l oose women many of them in a state of intoxication, and t h eir conduct was far from creditable. The anxiety evinced by parents to enable their children t o get what they were pleased to call ' a good sight* was most disgusting. It is very satisfactory to find that very few re spectable people were induced to attend. Such was the anticipated character of the assemblage , that a const a bl e of of Hodd es d on , w h o h a d warrants for the aP Pre h ensian of some offenders, attended at the place of execution, and succe e d e d i n captur ing one, of whom he h a d b een in search for som e ti me , an d in lodging him safe in g ao l. So careless and light were the feelings of the People, th at they amused them se l ves w i t h w hat is called bonneting one another, and one young man narrowly escaped punishment for amus ing himself in that way on the hat of a constable while pas s i ng through th e crowd w i t h hi s pr i s oner, as he lo o k e d up it in the light of a rescue. What effect has this public on exe cution had on the minds of those who witnessed it We walked amid the crowd ; we saw them returning from the place of death, and from all the terrors of justice, and marked their demeanour. There was no eye dimmed with tears ; no pallid cheeks : no sad and gloomy thoughts ap peared to oppress them ; but all was' laughter, jest, and and revelry. The public-houses and beer-shops soon be came filled ; the spectators of death went to feasting and gambling : the quiet of the town was disturbed by scenes of drunkenness and lic e ntiousness • and the d ay was a carnival t o t h e di ssolute of the neighbourhood 1" PRICES OF CANAL, DOCK, ASSUR ANCE COMPANY SHARES, &c. &c. &c.

Mr. COLBURN begs to announce that the NEW EDI TION of this Standard Work will be ready for delivery in the beginning of next month. The work has undergone the usual searching revision which precedes the publication of its successive editions, in the course of which more than 10,000 additional names (the collateral connections of the Peerage and Baronetage) have been obtained and inserted ; so that almost every one, however remotely allied to the Hereditary Rank of the kingdom, is new included. The genealogical researches - of the Author, in furtherance of his other works, more especially of the " History of the Landed Gentry," opened new sources of information to him, which in this impression of THE PEERAGE an d BAROISTETAGE have been amply profited by. The new Peers and Baronets also will be found fully detailed. Amongst the Embellish ments the forthcoming edition presents an emblazoned Title page, designed and executed after the fashiox of the ancient missals, and comprehending the badges of the different Orders of Knighthood.

In loch I ing at this subject he was inclined to look back to whs.- took place in former times. They might all remem ber the time when the City had no force except the ward beadles. Sir M. Wood altered that system in the county, i - by introducing the centralization system, and great altera tions had been made, but in his opinion they were -nut a bit\ better off than they were when they had only the ward beadles. Ile thought the men acquainted with the locality, were the best watchmen, and it was . a • very different thing to go before a Magistrate who was a perfect stranger, and one whom they knew to be a fellow-citizen.—( Cheers. ) They might just as well bring in a regiment cf soldiers as a new police force, for they would treat their Magistrates with contempt, and the citi- • i Zeno would not have the power either to punish or to reward, as th e case :n i g h t d eman d. H e k new some eases i of villages where the watch was preferred to the constables of the parish, and then the tradesmen had no shuttters— they merely drew down a blind inside. A new police was sent down, a nd t h e tra d esmen t h en or d ere d s h utters because stranyrs were set to watch over them. So it would be in London. The Ministers were grasping too much, and they, by attempting to break down the liberties of the people, would fail themselves.--(Cheers.) It was im possible they could retain the confidence of the people while they pursued such conduct, and he would, therefore, have much pleasure in moving the second resolution. Mr. ANDERTON seconded the resolution. The provisions in that Bill were arbitrary in the extreme, for by one of the clauses every licensed victualler who served a child under 14 years of age with liquor was subject to a penalty„ es were also all butchers who cried Buy, buy—(Lauei ter)—milk girls who called Milk, milk—(Laughter)— and the poor muffin boy was not exempt—(lr:creased laughter.) In short, if the Bill was to pass, they trissio wish good bye to the cries of London. Under the pre : _ siona of other clauses "in the Bill, no person could pass along the streets of London, for if he only happened to run against another in a hurry, he was subject to be tat- to prison, or pay such sum as the party run against demand.—(Lau g ht er , and cries of ~ S hame.") Tin:. clause allowed a n y policeman to stop a cart employed in removing furniture, if he thought the removal Niil.-4 , ti• honest.—( Hear, hear.) Clause 78 made magistrate , the constables.—( Hear, hear.) : When any - persr charged with a felony, the constable could, if the effice was closed, demand of the person makine charge, to enter into recognizances to prosecute.—( lie .r hear.) , Then there was a clause against the flit, ; .; e. kites —( Laughter, and hear, hear.) Poor eliiidrec, e les going from school, had engaged in any innocent arnue ment, were liable to be taken into custody by a polieintios. —(Hear.) Now what ground was there fur moil adA ? had the Bank—or the Excise Office---or the Post-ion:ie . — or the bankers and merchants of the city, mode at,, , , , CC:2I - of the inefficiency of the police ? No. Wh, at the west end there were every variety of improper heeses —gaming establishments and " flash houses," of whi c h there were none in the City yet, no such Act was proposed 'for the West End, —( Herr, hear.) The immediate ob ject of the Bill was patronage, but it had a much worse object more indirectly in view—it was intended es s first step to future measures yet more arbitrary.—( Cheers, The citizens of London would basely forsake the i•• aecient rights were they not energetically to oppose this Bill.— (Cheers. ) Mr. FEARON said, from the speech which bad just (teen delivered, it would seem that the Bill was one of the most tyrannical ever brought forward.—(Cries of " So it is.") But before the citizens decided so, it would be well to read and understand the provisions cif the Bill.—( Hear, hear. ) The fair construction of those provisions would not jusiii any one of the conclusions which had been drawn vg: . them. The principle of the Bill, its details, and the ques tion of jurisdiction, were three distinct questions. The outcry about privilege was confined to the City ; the six great metropolitan districts did not participate in it. No 'doubt municipal institutions had been valuable fur the pre servation of liberty in the dark middle :Tea. But at the present period, such privileges were utterly useless, save to those who had the exclusive enjoyment thereof. The Corporation of London as at present constituted, did not, and could not, represent the popular voice.—( Hear, hear.) Fifty persons in a ward might elect an Alderman who was a Magistrate for life, and stood his chance of be coming Lord Mayor, Chief Magistrate of London.— ( Hear, hear.) And even when an Alderman was elected by a ward, the Court of Aldermen might put a veto on tint election.—( Hear, hear.) The present Ministry were sin cerely desirous to extend the benefits of liberty—(Ne, no)—that wag his honest conviction. The agitation which had been excited against this Bi;1 in the Court of Altlsr men end Court of Common Council was most discre• ditable. He considered the Court of Aldermen the moat l:~:Ti lt*C` ~T iliflJ~ tyrannical both ever invested with civic authority, and be did not believe the citizens were safe in the hands of an unreformed and corrupt corporation.—( Hear. hear.) Noe. as to some of the clauses. Clause 78, a hich had be e , : severely animadverted upon by Mr. Anderton, was , s f lows :—" That when a person charged with a fc10,%. , or a grave misdemeanour is in custody, with or ;.- rtli cut a warrant, of a police constable at any sta!icti house, during the time when the police -aloe is closed, it shall be lawful for the constable to rcqu',.e the person making the charge, to enter into rep .e i_ Lances, and in case of his or.her refusal, to discharge, if I. - appear to him prudent, the person accused from cut!' could there be a more reasonable provision ?—( IL., Then as to the flying of kites; the clause was to tie , , ,- that any person playing at any gatne,—" to the :Mho N ..!., . the inhabitants or passengers,"—(Hear)—" or who sh . a.. slides on the footpaths," —or do an thing "to the (Lang .: ~: passengers," shall be p un i s h e d i n a certa i n way. Gl!,, be a more salutary provision, when it was ,rcree, b how unable the police were now, from wa • . ' powers, to take into custody persons endargeriog- the Lint., and lives of passengers by making '‘ slides," or other raisohit-G us tricks?—(Hear, hear.) As to the clause about Lakin'- into custody loose or disorderly characters, the words woes added, .. who shall disturb the public peace," or ~ who shall not d ive a satisfactory account of themselves," and that made a -,.- rc:11 difference in the operation of the clauses. —( hear.) Ine op - el usion,:lllr. Fearon moved an amendment, that the G cocci; n.eet Bill was, without reference to details, in principle ti,:s:rabl,, because it took the management of the police from the hotol , ' an unreformed and corrupt Corporation. Mr. PONTIFEX seconded the amendment. Mr. Tavunt felt a strong objection to the principle of the Bill, opposed, as he considered it to be, to those great priwi pies of liberty—those constitutional maxims, which he had im bibed from the most distinguished advocates of freedom. And he hoped that a measure calculated so seriously to augniert the influence of the Crown—of which it had so often been declared by the Whig party, that " it had increased, was increasing, and ought to be diminished" —he hoped that such a measure would not be allowed to pass, brought forward, as it had been, by that party who had always professed a particular veneration for li. berty. —(Cheers. ) The Ministry did not dare come forriard with a large and comprehensive measure, but insidiously at tacked that which was most valuable in the rights and privileges of the City.—(Hear.) All that could be desired iu efficient organization and co-operation, with respect to the City po • lice, had already been attained by the reform which had now been effected in that police.—(Hear.) The proper way to effect a uniformity of system would be to extend the rights of the City on this subject to the other metropolitan eistiocts, and not to take those rights away from the City.—(Cheers.) Some of the present Ministers had shown themselves very in capable in police regulations.—( Hear, hear.) Who libel a . the lunatic Thom, or Courtney, who afterwards worked - so much mischief in Kent? Who placed little children in solitary confinement till they lost their reason ?—(Hear, hear, hear. ) Even an able Minister would be unable to attend to matter, of this kind which were much better committed to keel superintendence.—(Hear.) Undoubtedly there were abus , s in the Corporation of London, though it was not such a den of corruption as had been represented ; but would it be wise to take revenge for such abuses by casting away a vital privilege ? —(Cheers.) Mr. WELLS could not support the amendment, because io would thereby relinquish rights which could not afterwards be recovered.—( Hear.) Still he could not vote for the resolutions, became he should thereby be lending a helping hand to a Cor poration, which, by its jobbery and corruption, h a d won t h e dis gust and contempt of the citizens and the country.—( Hear.) He had heard that a plot of this kind was in contemplation ; that Mr. D. W. Harvey was to be made High Bailiff of South wark, and that then the Hon. Member would oppose the Bill. —(Cries of " No, no," and " Hear, hear.") Mr. MARRYATT supported the resolutions, represent:ng the Bill as a scheme of the Ministry to acquire fresh p3war and pa tronage to prop up their falling influence—(Loud cheers)—and complaining of the coldness of her Majesty's answer to the City. Address. Mr. Hices sooke in favour of the Bill. The amendment was put and negatived by an overwhelmin, majority, only three hands being held up for it. Mr. WELLS then moved, and Mr. Bncic seconded. r.nothe, amendment, that had it not been for the jobbery of the ccip ration and the delay in reforming the police, no Ministry have dared to interfere with the management of the , et!' This amendment having also been put and negatived, the iO, • lotion was put and carried by acclamation. yi • • Dr. LT NCH moved, and iNir. GALLOWAY se-o».d, d tin' , tton of the remaining resolutions, which were carried with C•' - • or two dissentients. . , Mr. SEELri moved that a petition, founded on thr. tions, be presented to the Lords by Lord Brougham, and to ti.

On the motion of Mr, Wells, it was agreed that the proceed ino.s of the Meeting he advertised. ° Thanks were voted to the worthy Alderman, who, hav!n: returned thanks, the Meeting separated. ------ , -2 „ , RAILWAY TRAVELLING. —Daring r‘a p tote p e‘ a. t ri t i appeared d a t v ii: , ‘ falls of snow last week, when all the coaches were stve.t. hours behind their time, the trains on the Stceltun an• Darlington Railway arrived at the different station7l3ever, minutes before their time.—Sunderland Herald.
