COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL,

The Lotto Nttyou took the Chair, as usual, at
twelve o'clock. After some inaltaa of course bad
been gone through—
Mr. OLDHAM' hoped that the. Corporation would
soon have an opportunity ,of receiving OWE sove.
reign within the city, and as so many years had
elapsed since a King had honoured them by hia,pre-
settee, said he thought it right, as rally as possible,
to call the attention of the Court to the probability
of such an event, that they might tint be unpre-
pared for it. It wa. one which required eouvideta-
tion, and if they would then allow him to make
motion on the subject, dispensing with the cus-
tomary notice, he should immediately do so.--
(Move, move, move!)---11e moved " That a Com-
mittee be appointed to eonaider, the best mode of
manifesting on the occasion of, his hlajesty's
'don those feelings of affection and loyalty untet-
twined •by the city of London." The Cotarrtilteo
to repnq in the Conovit.—Motion agreed to, and
Committee immediately nominated.

PIi.ANC;U.

The Court was so long occupied with
.merely
Pormut lioinemo, that it was a quarter past one
o'clock before. the following order, though stamiing
first upon the paper, was brought wider their, no-
dee :—" To take, into consideration the Memorial
of certain resident Freemen lienseliolders of Lon-
don, presented to this court on the ;s4.ofJieptem-
ber instant, praying that this Court will cooped!.
late by Address, or otherwise, the French People,
throagh the Municipulity of Paris, on their glodoue
and heroic conduct in achieving a Revolution un-
exampled for courage anti public spirit, and unpre-
cedented for the wisdom end moderation with which
they have crowned their victory."
The memorial having been reed,
Mr. STEVUNS rose to. ontiitt4is, promised motion
on the subject of the recent eveats in France,—
Vbea he lied had the homier of presenting the me-
morial which had just been read, he felt, nod he
doubted not that others felt too, that the duty nf
following up that memorial by a motion in confor-
mity with its prayer—by taking
.up the question in
the manner which he had done, devolved upon him.
It must be obvious to all, that neither he nor the
memorialists desired to cost any reflection upon the
great body of the Corporation. Nothing could be
further from their minds; for he we; perfectly twee
that many members of the Corporation wished that
a Spend Court should be called for the purposes
which he bud in view, and bad upplied to hi* Lord-
Ship to cell such Special Court i but his Lordship,
in the exercise of his discretion, thinking proper to
decline compliance with diet request, he thought
that the Court might at its next tkieVtitlg. appoint
an early day for the purports of taking the subject
into its most attentive consideration—making the
proceeding of calling the toeeting an act of that
Court, as, the Lord Mayer declined. ever, that
not taking. place, he was reduced to the neceiosity of
giving notice of e motion, and he owed it to the
courtesy of his Lordship that it stood first upon the
paper that day. At a future period it' might bc-
come a question how far a Lord Mayor was justified,
or the contrary, in refusing to give the Common
Council an opportunity, of expressing their send-
meets upon any great question on which. as compe-
tent number of them.might And it theirdetY to call
upon Lordship to summon N trietting.—(No,
