LONDON BRIDGE.

Sir W. CURT( moved the second readingof the Lon-
don BiidKe Water-works bill.

. -
Sir W. DE EICESPIONY trusted that the proprietors
would he protected; speaking for himself, lie was pre-
pared to acquiesce in tile proposition that had been made.
He, however, spoke only as an individual. Ad he con-
tended for was a fair mid equitable compensation; when
that was promised, lie should withdraw his opposition.
Ile understood 10,0c01. only had been uttered.
Mr. H. SUMNER observed, that the dilapidation% of
London Bridge hail been frequently complained of. The
committer had been ut the unanimous opinion that there
wile no means of is-moving the dangerous obstriletion• of
the river without taking down London Bridge. As to the
present bill, all he had to desire was, that the reports
about the bridge, as well as the Southwark petition,
i should be referred to the committee on the bill; lie then
should have no doubt that such prom-tiling regarding the
bridge would be recommended as were advisable.
Mr. DE ISON cunciiired in this made of pout:ceding
with the bid. The proseik bridge had been most pru-
peily complaint ti of.
\hi. Ald. WOO!) would oppose the bill, if he thought
it would prevent the building ut a sew bridge. It would
nut. It was necessary, at all events, that the water-works
should be removed, whether or nut there was to be a new
bridge.
Tile bill was read a second time, and ordered to be re.
(erred to a committee above mails, to winch the reports
respecting ',melon 1!, edge %tura referred.
Mr. H. I,t'AINElt moved that the Southwark petition
be refilled to thee committee. —Motion agreed 10.
Tice remaining orders having been disposed of,
Mr. BARHAM noised for returns of licence, granted
to vie I ttailer. and ut applications refused, since lull. by
the magistrates of the stud other dust-
stela ~—Orduret.
The haulm Bleu adjoin tied to Mooday.

It is expecteil that some notice will be taken in
Parliament of the state of the accounts of the trea-
surer of the County of Middlesex, fur it is a very
great hardship that the county should be obliged to
wake up any deficiency that might have arisen by
the misconduct of others. The latter ought to be
investigated to the utmost, for never was u country
that has snared so much as England by public de-
flutters. There should paro,:hial meetings held
immediately to petition Parliament on the subject,
to institute au inquiry into recent proceedings.
A tenant of a gallant Baronet, residing in the
neighbourhcxxl of Bury St. Edmund's, lately applied
to his landlord to inform him that he could nut go on
longer, and wished the latter to enter upon the pre-
iniws and pay itttoself for two years rent which
were then due. The landlord insisted that he
'hull not leave his ; gave hint a receipt in
f. 4// for his rent; and reduced it, in future, to 20s.
