Mr. BL le —My Lord Mayor ma the member of this court
who dadbrought this subject before their notice, I feel it nay
tl=it may he thought it la, to move the next stage au the
Ina/much ash think we could not a. • matter of
scone merely receive the report without taking its contents
into consideration. I therefore beg leave to move that the
report, together with its appendices, be printed and circu-
lated amongst the members of this court, and that the con-
sideration of it be postponed till the next court. Of course,
being • question of privilege, it will stand at the had of the
paper of business, and before our next meeting I shall take
an opportunity of placing a notice upon the paper in con-
nexion with it. I therefore abstain for the present from ex-
pressing any opinion upon the report, because every member
of the court., both present and 'dent, I think, ought to have
the fullest opportunity of giving the subject the ecriotua con-
sideration it so justly demonic (Rear, hear.)
Mr. SISLEY—I shell wooed the motion. I think that the
greater publicity_given to an acquittal of that sort the better.
Mr. Deputy Hutt —I take • somewhat different view of
this matter to that of the gentlemen who have just addressed
the court. I venture to move an amendment, end inasmuch
as the law officers have gone fully into the subject, and have
reported that neither this court nor the Court of Aldermen
have jurisdiction in the matter, we have nothing further to
do with it, and 1 think the least said the soonest mended. I
cannot conceive that the slightest advantage can accrue to
this court or this city, by ceavouring to keep open • mat-
ter which is settled in itwlf ; at all events, it is clear to my
mind that we have nothing to do with it, and I therefore
cern:lily and sincerely reoommend that we agree with the
sad that there now be en end to the diecusakm.
(Cries of "No, no.")
Mr. DrpntySTXVENO—I differ materially from my Mend.
Mr. Deputy Hotr—TMs you don't second the amend-
meat P
Mr. Deputy Byre rtes—No.
Mr. Deputy uuLT Then, you AM Out of court.
(Laughter.)
The amendment
!ion
as the ;emend for want of a weendor.
' The original motion waa then put end carried unanimously.

SITE OF SMITHFIELD MARKET.
Mr. Leon's gave notice of the foll
ceowing motion :
"That the unseemly and desolate appearan of mime parts
of the ward of Farrungden Without and parts adjacent,
Wain from the feet that a comidenthle portion of land
=Nine =coveted by buildings, demands the serious atten-
tion of this court. And as, from the various changes made
by the removal of Smithfield Market, and the wholeettle
desolition of houses en the immediate neighbourhood, the
trade of the inhabitants has been most se
riouely injured,
while the comforts of the poor are materially affected by the
absence of suitable residences for their occupation, makes it
absolutely necessary that immediate elope be taken to remedy
the great and crying evil, so far cie this court has jurisdiction.
That it be rehired to the City Lands Committee to inquire
sad report specially as to thacause of this state of things, in
eedee that the ?elveree who ere suffwere, and the public
who en observers, may know to whom they have to look for
an improvement."
COMPORATION INCICIRT COMMITTEE.
Mr. Aszseen moved, "That the members of the oorpo.
ration who en members of parliament, and not on the ("im-
pend= inquiry Committee, be added to that committee."
Agreed to.
Mr. Alderman Roar prevented a petition from the Metro-
politan Committee for conducting Evening Classes for Young
Kea praying that the court would Kraut them pecuniary ma-
dames towards the purchase of Crosby Hall.
Mr. ABRAHAM esconded the 11100111.
:Mr. T. It. Far, in opp=ing the action, said, that in his
opinion the court ought not to mutat an institution which
ought to be self-eupporting. It Lad amongst its members
clerks in mercantile firms of eminence and thnhtng-howies,
the heads of which he was sure would not come to the court

' application they would induce Institutions of all kinds to
make spplkations foe aeshdance to enable them to build, end
for other purposes. He therefore moved, by way of amend-
ment, that the petition lie upon the table.
Mr. H. L. Ter tun, in seconding the amendment, said he
the court ought at ones to put a stop to applications
