STOPPAGE' OF A BANS IN DUBLIN.
[From the Dadia Morning Poe of Tuesday:l
Died on Saturday evening last, at his seat, Killester, in
the neighbourhood of this city, the Lord Viscount New-
conten. The announcement of the death of this Noble-
man, coupled with the fact of the doors of the Bank in
Castle-street being closed, caused a great sensation in town
during the whole of yesterday. A written Notice was
affixed to the door to the effect following :
" NOTICE.
" In consequence of the death of Viscount Newcomen, the busi-
ness of this Bank has been suspended until arrangements shall be
made for its recommencement.
" 17th January, 111-21."
Various reports are in circulation respecting the state of
the Bank affairs, which we, of course, refrain from pub-
lishing.

NEWCO3IEN'S BANK:

The Bank of Viscount Newco men has suspended pay-
ment this morning, in consequence of the death of that
Nobleman. According to the Notice at the Bank, the
suspension is only temporary. It is needless, however, to
add, that the sensation produced among the mercantile
community is extraordinary, this firm being generally a
bank of deposit.

THE BRITISH P R

COURT OF COMMON C'ouNcrh.

Yesterday •Coutt of Common Council was held, for the despatch
of gentril business. It was very nunicrottaly attended.
Alderman %VAtruat•w moved, that a Petition should be pre-
sented to the House of Commons, to enable the Corporation to
remove the prisoners confuted in the Borough Compter to the gaol
of Newgate. l'he Borough Conipter was in a very dilapidated
state, and it would require the expenditure of 13,Outii. to keep the
prisoners there. The removal would be highly salutary, and
would occasion a great saving to the City.
Mr. DI xox whaled that the documents on which the motion
was founded, and which had been laid before the Court of Alder-
men, should also be laid before the Court.
Mr. Alderman WVstruuax agreed to the suggestion, and the
matter was referred to the Gaol Committee.
ST. BRIDE'S CHURCH.
Mr. SLADE presented ■ Petition from several inhabitants of the
parish of St. Bride's, reeking the proceedings which had taken
plsce for the purpose of throwing open the space to the public
view. It prayed that the Court would second the spirit of public
improvement displayed in this instance, by making a pecuniary
grant in aid of the subscription which had been raised to defray
the expense of the proposed measure. The Petition stated, that
the improvement would be productive of greet local convenience to
the inhabitants.

.....
Mr. 3IARRIOT. one of the inhabitants who appeared at the bar
ma petitioner, stated that the impression had gone abroad that this
improvement was contemplated by the inhabitants merely for the
sake of local and private advantage, but he declared that such an
impression was ill-founded, and that the petitioners were only in.
tluenced by a sense of public utility, sad the general desire for
improvement.
31r. SLAne congratulated the Court that the spirit of improve-
ment had gone abroad, and was likely to produce the most bench.
vial effects. The subscription, which now amounted to nearly
1,0001. was a proof that the laudable spirit which he had alluded to
was really felt by the citizens at large. He hailed it as a happy
presage of future exertion in this course, and he hoped the Court
would not be backward to giving all the aid in their power. He
moved that the Petition should be referred to the Improvement
Committee.
Mr. Fsver.t. seconded the motion, and said he hoped the COT-
pnration would rally round this beautiful steeple. By aiding the
subscription, a noble example of good taste would be set.
Alderman SI'AITTIMAW said, he had ever been one of the most
strenuous advocates of improvement, and no important measure of
this nature had ever been brought forward in the City without his
best support. Ile had been 35 years an inhabitant of the Waal
where the improvement was proposed to be made. During that
time he believed there were but six individuals who paid higher
sates than himself. He had sons who also paid rates there, and as
his premises were very near St. Bride's Church, it might be sup-
posed that, independently of his official situation, he had some in-
terest in the measure, and had some right to expect that he should
have been consulted with respect to it. He had, however, received
no notice whatever of the meeting which had been held at the Lon.
don Tavern, except through the public papers. He received no
notice whatever of the meeting held fa the Ward, and no
one had thought it proper to consult him upon the sub-
ject. He had written to the parties foremost in the measure
to know whether this conduct was intended as an insult to
him, and received no answer. He could not say from what
motives this conduct had originated, or whether it was from
any narrow party feeling (hear, hear); but if it were so, the little
minds of those who so acted, had greatly miscalculated, if they
supposed that private feeling, or any thing so paltry and dirty could
affect his conduct with respect to a public measure. The worthy
,alderman then spoke at great length on the expediency of sup-
porting every measure for improvement They should keep pace
with the improvement going on at the other end of the town, if
they would prevent the trade of the City front being taken away.
Ile expressed his opinion that the persoffi who had undertaken to
conduct the measure, had done it in a somewhat bungling manner,
and let the opportunity which had been offered to them slip, as
there was building now going forward on the space which it had
been intended to clear. lie concluded by giving his support to the
motion for referring the Petition to a Committee.
The LORD :BATOR said, that as he had presided at the Meeting
alluded to, it was necessary foe him. lifer what had fallen from his
brother Alderman, to say a few words in explanation. When the
deputation waited upon him to request that he would preside as
Chairman, he asked them whether that was not a local matter, and
whether as a matter of delicacy they ought not to apply to the
Aldernian of the IVard ? (Hear, hear.) it was replied, that it
rag considered as a national measure, and that he might very pro-
perly preside. With this view of the subject he consented. It
was then proposed that the Meeting should be held at a tavern in
the Ward. lie declined presiding at a Meeting in the liVard, for
the reasons he had first stated. It was then agreed that the Meet.
ing should be held at the City of London Tavern, and he presided,
under the impression that the matter was to be treated as one of a
general nature.
Alderman WAITIIMAN begged to be allowed to state, in addi-
tion to what lie had already said, that he had received no notice
whatever Many intention to present a Petition to this Court. The
conduct of the Lord Mayor was gentlejianly, and the objections
which bad occurred to him confirmed the impressions entertained
by him with respect to the persons alluded to.
Mr. Deputy REEVE supported the Petition.
Mr. BUTTERWORTH and Mr. fiattoway said they had re-
ceived no notice of the intended motion.
Mr. CROOK said, the assertions with respect to the buildings on
the site of the house, which had been burnt down was erroneous.
The buildings now going forward on the spot were not at all in
contradiction to the plan in contemplation. (Hear, hear.)
The petition was then referred to the Committee of City Ins.
provements.

COLONEL TRENCH'S PLAN OF A NEW QUAY.
Alderaoan IVAITHM•vr presented a Petition from a number of
the inhabitants of the north bank of the Thames. The Petition
stated, that it was the intention of Colonel Trench and a number of
Noblemen and Gentlemen, to apply next Session of Parliament
for leave to bring is a Bill to form a joint stock company. for the
purpose of erecting a Quay, to extend along the north bank of
the Thames, from Scotland-yard to London-bridge. The Petition
characterised the measure as neither necessary nor expedient—
that it would be a mere fanciful decoration, of no public utility.
and undertaken without making any provision for any probable
damage that might be done to them. He had attended a meeting
held on the Thames, for the purpose of discussing the merits
of this plan, and it appeared to him to be highly magnificent,
and worthy f the greatest attention ; but they should not advance
one step, without making the most complete inquiries. He con-
cluded by moving that the Petition should be referred to the Na-
vigation Committee, for theta to inquire and report thereon.
Mr. Dixow said, that the question as to the expediency of sup-
porting or opposing this project, was one of the most important that
had come before the Court within his time. Whether they viewed
it with respect to the probable capital that it would absorb, the effect
upon the property adjacent, or their own rents, the subject was one
of the greatest magnitude. The chief recommendation he had heard
of the plan, as to its utility, was, that it would here an imposing
effect upon foreigners. Now, if that were the only good to be ob-
tained, he did not think it worth purchasing at suck a price, and at
such a risk. The pros ace of foreigners was not of such paramount
importance. They never came over here fur our good. (A laugh.)
When, who were the persons to carry the plan into eseeutiort
Doubtless practical men—persons who had property adjacent—who
well knew the localities—were well qualified to judge of the pro-
bable expense and produce of the scheme. No such thing ; they
were men of fashion, military men, noblemen, and gentlemen, who
knew nothing, and cared nothing about those points. Amongst
the projectors was noleu a personage than the Duchess of Rutland,
who said she had no idea of the civilized state, and elegant man.
ners of the citizens of London, until she saw the later Lord Mayor.
(A laugh.) The worthy Member then pr>ceeded at great length
on the necessity of keeping open the quays generally. Ile knew
well enough. that money enough in the present times was forth-
coming for any absurd project, and especially for the promotion of
joint stock companies. There were always Aldermen ready to come
forward. If a person were to propose to-morrow to block up the
Thames, and divert the waters to some other course, it would find
supporters. (Laughter.) He had heard of one Alderman who had
warmly engaged in a plan for bringing mile,' cows into the City, in
miler to get a better supply of milk. (Hear, hear.) But the chief
inducement held out was, that the milk of Alderney cows Unproved
the complexion. Ile concluded by seconding the motion for sending
the Petition to a Committee. rile most close inquiry should be
made.

Mr. FAY ni.r. said, that when Mr. Dixon said that foreigners
never came into this country for our good, he forgot the entliorisam
which we diplayed when the Allied Alonarchs vsmted the City, the
expenses incurred for their entertainment, and that he had his like-
ness taken as one of the principal figures in a picture, now extant. of
that great emertainment. (Laughter). He agreed, however, that
this sits a project which ought to be seriously examined on all
sides. _ _

Mr. °Lull Alt said. the Corporation bad certainly hesitated with
respect to London-bridge, as their funds were deeply involved. but
they should look upon this project in a very different light, u others
were to advance the money for this purpose.
Mr. thing said, the foreigners who came hither had turned
agaiLst us all the improvements they had seen,
Alderman WOOD said, lie had been intbrined that the proposed
Qnsy would actually benefit the adjacent property; that the wharfs
would be rendered much tome tali/able, and a highly desirable
shelter given tar coal and other barges. which would be received
under archways.
The Petition was then referred to the Navigation Committee.
A Petition was presented from the Radii's, High Steward, Re-
corder, and Freemen, of the town of Kingston, in relation to the
rebuilding Kingston-bridge, which was read and referred to the
Navigation Committee.
A Petition was also presented, from sundry owners and occu-
piers of wharfs and buildings in Southwark. near 'Cooley-street,
between London-bridge and St. ()lave. Stairs, relative to the
damage done to their rharfs and buildings by the removal of the
London-bridge waterworks and the works now carrying on in the
erection of the new bridge, which W9i referred to the Committee
who have the superintendence of the new bridge.
The Committee for General Purposes presented a Report in re-
lation to the office of principal clerk of the Court of Requests,
which was reCire.l bark for reconsideration. and for the Committee
to report on the qualifications requisite for tlist office.
The several Committees for the year ensuing were appointed.
After some business of minor importance, the Court adjourned.
