THE BRIDGE-STREET ASSOCIATION.

The question as to the legality or illegality of the pro-
ceeding., of this Associative' has at length autoned a form,
which must oecessaiily lead to a drciorm of aloe law upon
the subject. Mr. Parkins, accompanied by Mr. Thackersy,
his Counsel, and Mr. Harmer, the Solicitor, attended at this
ether yesterday, and exhibited to the Lord Mayor an infor-
mation, under the statute 30 Gee. 111. chap. 79, against
Charles Murray, Gentleman, the &emery of the Asaucia-
lion. The informaitun, was drawn up in the name of
John Tyler, i f Writ street, in the parish of St. Clement
Danes, bookseller, one of the individuals against whom the
bills of iodictmeot prefer►ed by the Association were thrown
out by the Grand Jury, stria set forth, that since the pass-
log of au Act 3411 Gee. 111. entitled An Act for the metre
effectual sisppreuion of Societies established for seditious
and treasonable purposes, and fur better preventing treason-
able and seditious practices," the said Charles Murray bad
became one of an Association, the members whereof did
assent to a declaration not required by law, ■ud not autho-
rised in manner inentioued in the said statute; and that
therefore such Association was an unlawful combination and
enufrdersey within the meaning of that Art. The informs.
ties therefore prayed that the said Charles Murray might t e
called in to his defence; and the api.licatiou of Mr. Parkin•
was, that his Lordship would pout the ueressary 11111111710 Us
for that purpose.
Mr. Holder, his Lordship's clerk, suggested to Mr. Har-
mer, that the itifurenatiou dill not set forth the penalty to
which the Defendaut would be liable in the mut of a coo-
•ictioa under the statute.

Mr. Harmer replied, that as that would be maitre of ad-
judication, be concaved it waa not necessary to set it forth
iu Übe information.

The Lord Mayo', after some cuusiieratio■ as to his public
engsgenteuta. suggested Saturday, as one day on which IN
would give his decision, •ad Mr. Parkins aid his legal ad.
Wiser/ Were about to rilirc under the irapreasion that the
hearing of the emir was fixed for_ that day. His Lordship,
hunever, eaplaisied that he considered the question of mach
importance, ass therefore desirous of looking into the
Am. to ascertain how far lie had authority to irocifere under
the circumstances, and would oa Saturday decide whether

►e would receive the iufurivaluns cud grant the 111111$1110111
thereon.

Mr. Thackeray observed, that, iu his judgment, stilfmient
was set forth is the information to warrant hl:4 Lordship at
least in granting the summons; if, however, his Lordship
were of a different opinion, he suggested that an earlier day
might be appointed fur the decision of that question.
It was at length stilled that his Lordship would on Wed-
nesday next give his decision whether or uo he would receive
the intternation, and, in the event of his receiving it, that
the bearing thereon should take place uu the Saturday fol-
lowing.
This information is founded upon the second section of
the statute above quoted, which was passed iu the year 1798,
and is cumAsouly called Mr. Pitt'. Act.
