15,000 L, or about Ha a mile: but the repairs et this 11
miry cost about 15,068/, or about 1,4001 a mils. These
gates were kept up, not fur the new or benefit of the public,
but to enable en old and worn-out commiselca to expend
money and to enjoy the meets of office. (Chem)
Mr. FORAYER, ex-M.l'. for Berwick, moved the first reso-
lution, which aftilmed that in the opinion et the meeting, ell
gates and toll-bus should be removed from within a six rob
radiva of Charing-nn, and that • committee should be
formed for the purpose of carrying out that object.
Mr. Lx Bintroa, barrister, in seconding the resolution,
said his attention was first willed to the subject of toll-bars
by the Rebecca riots in Wake, where he was celled upon to
defend some person. who were engaged in them. The owe
wild his clients was perfectly elear, and be expreesed his
regret that he Mould not be able to urge any thing in their
defence. A solicitor to whom he made this communication
mid, • Oh, never mind, the men will Dane be brought to
trial, for itch and poor are banded together here against
tolLgatts, and the grand jury will be sure to throw out the
bill." The bill was thrown out, and the men were escorted
through the town by Lands of music. There were four
capital iibjections to toll-gates—tarot, that there was a great
waste in the manner in which the collections were made ,•
second, that there wee gmat ineonvenience in stopped
at night fee the purpose of paving: third, that they inter-
fered with trade, and enhanced the coat of provisions and
nocawarics of life ; and (mirth, that they most materially de-
preciated the vulue of property. It was well known that
property on the London ride of a tollgate was orulth 20 par
cent. more than pmperty on the other ride.
The reeolution was then put to the meeting, and ceded
without • dissentient voice.
Mr. WATILIN, WV., moved the next resolution, which
provided that the public generidly Mould bo appealed to to
contribute funds towards the aceimiplishment of the object in
view.
Mr. J. CC MDIRLA XII seconded the reeolation, which WY
put to the meeting and agreed to.
Mr. 'MORAN, M.P., moved a vote of thanks to Mr. Brad-
field.

The revolution, haying been seconded, was curial.
A comtuittee having been appointed in accordanos with the
first resolution, a eubwription was entered into for the pus,.
pnse of providing funds. The London General Omnibus
Company contributed two hundred guineas, and liberal sub-
wrietions were announced bona the chairnian and other
