with the Union Bank of London for the advance of

upon the corporation for

of

TILE SDRIETALTr,
Mr. ANDERTON presented a memorial on the mode of
electing sheriffs, from 114. r. Hal:try, who was elected in
June, 1851, to the office.
The joint petition cf Mr. Grissell and Mr. Moore,
who were nominated by the Lord Meyor last June, as
parties to be publicly put in nomination to the Livery
for the office of sheriff, .tred who paid the fine of 4001.
each, inflicted in consequence of their refusal to servo,
was also reed. It stated the inconvenience to which
they wou:d have been subjected if they had served, and
that feeling that the fine was unreasonable, arbitrary.
and excessive, they prayed thatthe same might be repaid
to them.

Mr. lIENRY 13L/VXE rose to more that it be referred
to the Freedom Committee to inquire into the duties,
expenses, and emoluments of the office of sheriff, and to
consider the expediency of preparing a Bill to amend the
Act of Common Council of April, 1748, touching the
said office, by reducing the fines imposed.by such Act
from the several sums of 400/. and 600/. to 1001.; and
further, to consider the expediency of providing a fund
for maintaining the dignity of the office; and to report
forthwith to the Court.
Mr. BENIsrOCII seconded the motion.
Mr. H. L. TAYLOR could not fcr a moment think of
taring his fellow citizens to defray the expenses of the
sheriff:, and he accordingly moved the exclusion of the
part of Mr. Blake's motion which he considered to be
calculated to have that effect.
Mr. Deputy LOTT advocated the original motion.
After considerable discussion, in which several other
members joined, the proposition for inquiry, with the
omission of the words signifying the plan for relieving
the sheriffs from the expenses attending the office, was
agreed to by a large majority.
Mr. Hartley's petition was then ordered to lie on the
table.

THE NEW CATTLE MARKET.
Mr. Deputy LOTT presented a petition, numerously
signed, from owners, lessees, inhabitants, and occupiers
of property in the neighbourhood of Copenhagen-fields,
complaining of the selection of that locality as the site of
the new cattle market, and alleging various evils to
which they would be subjected thereby. The petitioners
concluded by saying that the arrangement was not
even likely to be permanent, inasmuch as the dissatis-
faction which would be created would lead to further
legislation.
The petition was read at length from the table.
The petitioners, who were in attendance, were called
to the bar.
Mr. DE JERSEY asked Mr. Streeten, by whom the de-
putation was heeded, whether ho
was prepared to point
out eny better site than Copenhagen-Gelds?
Mr. Streeten said that, when before the Home Se-
cretary, he had mentioned Bow-common.
Another member of the deputation said Wanstead-fiats
had also been suggested.
Mr. DE JERSEY wished to know whether in their in-
terview with the Llorac, Secretary the deputation said
anything on the subject of compensation?
Mr. Streeten replied that, being spokesman at the
Home-office, he represented to Mr. Walpole the hard-
ship to the parties of their being to means of obtaining
compensation. After some conversation the Right Hon.
Gentleman said the Act was a very arbitrary ono indeed,
and expressed his regret that the petitioners had not an
opportunity of being heard before the matter was de-
cided. What he said amounted to the expression of a
wish that the corporation of London would yet give
them an opportunity to be heard; and he added that,
though he considered him morally bound, he was quite
ready to go into the question again. Ile (Mr. Streeten)
felt certain that the Right Hon. Gentleman wished the
question to be re-opened.
Mr. DE JERSEY asked Mr. Streeten whether, in
speaking of compensation before the Home Secretary,
he referred to the case of lands, of houses, or of shops.
Mr. Streeten said he pointed out that a portion of
the property in the neighbourhood of the intended
market was let upon long leases, and he observed that
that case was altogether one of great hardship; especi-
ally as the buildings could only be occupied as residences.
Mr. BENNOCII asked whether, before the decision of
the Secretary of State was given, the petitioners had
any opportunity of learning that the market was likely
to come into their neighbourhood.
Mr. Streeten replied that they had no means of
knowing; the Act of Parliament did not provide for any
notice. It was true that they saw in the newspapers a
rumour on the subject, but they did not know whether
or not there was any truth in it. The Home Secretary
said he considered himself morally bound—the Right
Hen. Gentleman used the word " morally" emphatically
—to approve the cite which had been selected if he
should be called upon to do so: that was all he said on
the subject.
Mr. C. YOUNG asked Mr. Streeten if he was not aware
that the Smithfield Market Bill was brought in by her
Majesty's late Government.
Mr. Streeten—The Bill.itself shows that it was.
Mr C. Youso reminded Mr. Streeten that the corpo-
ration opposed the Bill to the utmost of their power.
The petitioners then withdrew.
Mr. Deputy LOTT said he regretted that a question of
such groat importance should have been brought on at so
late an hour, when the court was nearly exhaneted by
previous discussions.—(Hear.) Now, how stood this ques-
tion? The petitioners, who were most respectable indivi-
duals, would be cruelly damnified by the confirmation of
the selection of Copenhagen.fields as the site of the new
market. It appeared that negotiations were going forward
when the late Government retired from office; and the pre-
sent Government having acceded to office, Mr. 'Walpole,
never having been in his life in Copenhagen-fields, and
scarcely knowing whee they were—(A voice—" That is a
very strong assertion")—gave his assent to the site se-
lected by the corporation. Mr. Walpole said he had
already given his consent, in consequence of the repre-
sentations made to him by the corporation, and in the
belief that nothing more than his nominal consent was
required. Was it not fearful to think that a mere no-
minal consent should have the effect of ruining num-
bers of individuals? A great deal was said about the
difficulty of obtaining sites. Why there were a dozen
available. He could name one at that moment which
would be exceedingly convenient---the Isle of

Mr. BENNOCTI hoped the matter would not be decided
without ample time being afforded to urge objections.
The petition having been presented, it would be un-
courteous to the petitioners not to give it due conside-
ration.

Mr. BE JERSEY protested against the statement of
Mr. Deputy Lott, that the Secretary ot State had been
entrapped into giving his consent. He was surprised
that his friend should have made such a remark. The
Right Hon. Gentleman might never have been at a
tea-party at, Copenhagen-fields like his friend.—
(Laughter.) But he had, nevertheless, sent people there
to make inquiyieF. As regarded the solution of a site,
it was well known that Bow-common, Wansteadsfl Its,
the Lie of D and many other places had ell been con-
sidered; but Copenhagen-fields were publicly spoken
ot months ago as the probable site. As to Bow-com-
mon, land there was offered them for nothing. The,
corporation had no interest in the selection; the
.se
question for them to consider was what site would beaw,
suit the buyer and seller. Having been told thatsttehde,
property near Copenhagen-fields would be depreciated,
he could not help remarking that when the corporation
