WARD
OOUTF
2F2dAmli RINGIB3D9oN wrni•
At a WARD MEETING, held at the New Court, Old
Bailey, before the Worshipful JAMES HARMER, Esq., Al-
derman of the Ward, pursuant to a Requisition numerously and
respectably signed, " For the purpose of taking into considera-
tion the propriety of petitioning the Houses of Parliament
against a Bill intituled ' A Bill for Improving the Police in and
near the Metropolis,' which seeks to deprive the Citizens of
London of the ancient right of regulating their own Pdlice."
Resolved unanimously—That the experience of centuries has
proved beyond all controversy, that amongst the best safeguards
of liberty has always been found the maintenance of municipal
institutions constituted on a popular elective basis, and thus
endowinglarge bodies of citizens with public rights, and entrust-
ing to them the discharge of public duties.
Resolved—That this Ward meetinlt. views with sincere re-
gret, the introduction of a Bill into the House of Commons by
Mr. Fox Mauls and Lord John Russell, purporting " to im-
prove the police of this City," and which Bill recognizes the
creation of many new offences, which are to receive summary
punishment without the intervention of Juries or through the
elective and established Magistrates of the this City.
Resolved—That the Citizens of London have for upwards of
600 years enjoyed the full liberty of appointing, regulating, and
wholly directing the watching and police of this City, and at
this period they possess not only a good and efficient police, but
one equal, if net superior, to any that exists in any part of this
kingdom, consequently there is not the slightest necessity for
the interference of Government on this subject, especially if
that Government who have always professed to respect the
rights and privileges of, and, above all, to revere the advan-
tages which result to the people from, the exercise of self-go-
vernment, in all matters connected with their general welfare.

Resolved—That the Bill in question is a Winton, arbitrary
and unconstitutional interference with the ancient liberties,
rights, and privileges of the citizens of London, without pro-
ducing any possible practical advantage to any other part of the
community; this meeting has, therefore, no hesitation in pro-
nouncing it a flagrant, gross, and impolitic violation of the
rights and charters of this City, which no Fast Government, in
the most violent periods of our history, ever attempted.
Resolved—That this meeting deplores the strong predilec-
tion of the present Ministers for establishing a system of cen-
tralization, by which the Government is made everything, and
the People nothing. Such a system may suit the views of
tyrannical and despotic Governments, and may be tolerated by
people long accustomed to arbitrary laws, but. is wholly incom-
patible with the inherent love of liberty which the people of
Eng,land have for many centuries possessed, and which they
will not tamely surrender.
Resolved—That this meeting cannot refrain from expressing
its astonishment at the inconsistency of the present Govern-
ment, in bestowing on the new and reformed Munieipal Insti-
tutions of Great Britain the right of watching and protecting
themselves, whilst they now attempt to deprive the citizens of
London of a similar right, which they have not only for so many
centuries enjoyed, but have at all times exercised with great
public advantage.
Resolved—'chat a Petition founded on the foregoing Resolu-
tions, addressed to both Houses of Parliament, be prepared ;
and that Lord Brougham be requested to present it to the
House of Lords, and Sir Matthew Wood, Bart., to the House
of Commons; and that the support of every Member of both
Houses of Parliament, who values public liberty, be earnestly
solicited to give his opposition to the tyrannical and unconstitu-
tional measure which seeks to deprive the City of its ancient
rights and privileges, and to establish a precedent highly dan-
gerous to the liberties of the whole British people.
Resolved unanimously—That the thanks of this meeting be
presented to the Worshipful James Harmer, Esq., Alderman of
this Ward, for his ready compliance with the requisition pre-
sented to him upon this as upon all former occasions,--for his
consistent advocacy in support of the rights and privileges of
his fellow-citizens—for his exertions in the reformation of all
r..al abuses—for his uniform urbanity to the inhabitants of this
Ward—and for his able and impartial conduct in the Chair
this day.

MR. THEODORE HOOK'S NEW NOVEL.—
. Births, Deaths, and Marriages" is published this day,
by Mr. Bentley, who has also recently, published " The
Cabinet Minister," a novel, by Mrs. Gore.
THE YOUTH or $l-lAKSPEARE.—As every-
thing which relates to Shakspeare is matter of universal in-
terest, we have no doubt but that this book, which is very
pleasingly written, and with considerable spirit and know-
ledge, will become a very general favourite. Its very
title is such as to carry it into every circulating library in
the kingdom, and to push it into the hands of a much su-
perior description of readers. The book is employed as a
kind of canvas upon which to paint with much vivid co-
louring the contemporary characters of Shakspcare's age,
and we find here delineated, not only the youth of Shak-
speare, but the youth and manhood, also, of those with
whom he lived and flourished. It is one of those pictu-
resque historical romances which, taking an eminent elm-
ratter as a leading figure of the foreground of a tableau,
assembles around it all that is eminent, and illustrious in
the era in which he lived, and thus .-gfwposes a -kind of fa-
mily picture of an age gone by. We have here assembled
round Shakspeare, and forming a sort of suite and appen-
dage to his poetical advancement, Sir Philip Sydney, Sir
Walter Ral,•ira, Ben Jonson, Burbage, the Manager of
the Glebe Theatre, Lords Essex and Southampton, and
all the other wits, generals, and statesmen of the splendid
reign of Queen Elizabeth.--Messenger.
FATAL OCCURRENCE BY THE DUKE OF

BRUNSWICK'S CARRIAGE.— Yesterday morning, about seven
o'clock, as his Serene Highness the Duke of Brunswick
was proceeding in his carriage, which was going at a
quick rate along Wigmore-street, Cavendish-square, the
horses ran against and knocked down a poor boy, named
Mills, between eight and nine years of age, and the wheels
of the vehicle passing over his body killed him upon the
spot. Mr. Foster and Mr. Clarke, surgeons, dwelling in
the neighbourhood, examined the deceased (who immedi-
ately after the lamentable occurrence was removed to his
parents' rzsidence in Barrett's-court, Oxford-street,) and
ascertained that in addition to his collar bone being frac-
tured, six or seven of his ribs were broken, a portion of
which had penetrated the lungs. The driver, who was
perfectly sober, was subsequently taken into custody, at the
Duke's mansion in Bryanston-square, by Sergeant Harri„
son, of the D division, and conveyed to the station-house,
preparatory to his undergoing an examination before the
Magistrates of Marylebone-office this day.
TITHES.—LORD STA NLEY.—The following
letter appears in the Tipperary-Free Press of Saturday,
relative to a paragraph which appeared in a former pub.
lication of that Journal Clonmel, March 13.—Sir,_I
have just seen a paragraph in your paper of the 9th inst.,
stating that Lord Stanley has remitted the rent-charge to
his tenantry. I beg you will have the kindness, at your
earliest convenience, to give this statement a positive con-
tradiction, it being his Lordship's intention to recover the
rent-charge from all his tenants, except from those whose
holdings have come under the operation of the Tithe Act
of 1822. I remain, Sir, your obedient servant, I'l-vistas
BOLTON."

ARREST OF MURDERERS. The Nenagh
police succeeded in capturing eight men on Monday
night, talking over the very deed that they had committed
—the murder of the old man Hanley. Three of them
were identified, beyond all doubt, as the murderers.—
Nenagh Guardian.
ICEBERGS IN THE ATLANTIC.--Several ves-
sels which have arrived within the last fortnight were in-
terrupted in their progress by getting entangled in fields of
floating ice. The George Washington, the Elizabeth
Bruce, and the South America, were entangled among
floating icebergs for thirty hours. The first iceberg the
ship fell in with rose from fifty to sixty feet above the level
of the sea. It was dark when she approached it, and Cap-•
tain Barstow very wisely resolved to lie to till daylight.
About two o'clock, when the moon broke out from the
dense clouds in \vhich she had been previously enveloped,
and threw her light on the numerous icebergs, shooting up
like hoary cliffs, which were visible all round the horizon,
the spectacle is described by the persons who beheld it as
having been awfully sublime. The ice reflected the
beams of the moon, and the combination produced a mild
splendour, which approached, if it did not rival, the light
of day. The presence of so much floating ice in the
Atlantic, as far down as latitude 44, is a rather unusual
occurrence.—Liverpool

THE JULY COLUMN IN P/pm—The capital
for the Column of July, now erecting on the Place de
la 13astille, which, as we stated some time ago, was
cast in one mould, was on Sunday conveyed along the
Boulevards from the foundry of Messrs. Soyer and
Inge, in the Faubourg du Roule, to its destination. It
was in the rough staid as it came from the mould, with
a good deal of plaister in the interstices ;
but enough was to be seen to enable the spectators
to judge of, and admire its elegant design and beautiful
proportions, as well as its colossal magnitude. It was
placed on a low but strong truck of adequate size, on
four wheels, drawn by twelve powerful horses. It was
decorated with a stand of colours at each of the four
corners, and surmounted by an immense crown of
foliage. Strong cords were attached to it, by which
about 200 men held it back when going down a de-
scent in its may, and assisted the horses in mounting the
rising grounds. It was escorted by numerous sergens de
ville, and a small detachment of infantry. Numerous crowds
watched the progress of this moving mass, which did not
arrive at the Place de la Bastille till late in the evening, al-
though it set off before eleven in the morning. The dimen-
sions of this capital, which is of the Corinthian order, are 10
feet in height, and 18 feet in width, across the abacus. Its
weight is 23,0001b5., and that of the vehicle which conveyed
it was 10,0001bs. From the jarring motion of the vehicle,
the capital got cracked in some places before it arrived at
the Place de la Bastille, and one of the acanthus leaves was
torn. The lower partsof the magnificent bronze column are
in course of placing, and the engineer is said to have ex-
pressed himself confidently as to the possibility of the whale
being completed by July.—Paris Paper.
STEEPLE CHASING.—The character of a
people may fairly be judged of by their public amuse-
ments ; and in this point of view, while we rejoice to see
boxing matches and prize fir.,hts nearly at an end, it may
be doubted whether the novel taste for steeple chases is not
of an equally heartless brutalising nature.—Morn. Herald.
Mr. Hawes and Mr. Drinkwater, the inventor
and drawer of the Police Bills, have evidently brought
themselves into the suds; the former, it is said, now begins
to see the folly of silencing every witness before his Com-
mittee whose opinions were opposed to his wild projects.-
Morning Herald.

A TELLING PUN.—Richmond bridge is now
opened free every day except Sunday to foot passengers.
" I wonder," said X., meeting H. in the strand, •' if one
can also cross Waterloo-bridge without paying ?" Go
and ask," answered H., " and you will be tolled!"—Lite-
rary Gazette.
ACCIDENT TO A HoßsE.—Ycsterday a horse,
valued at 75 guineas, the property of Mr. Cox, livery-
stable-keeper, Stamford-street, Blackfriars- road, while
being driven in a gig by an intending purchaser, was run
against by a horse and cart, and the shaft penetrating the
animal's chest, it fell down dead almost immediately.

CAB ACClDENT.—Yesterday morning, between
seven and eight o'clock, a poor aged woman, named
Rachael Beckley, in crossing the end of East-street,
Lamb's Conduit-street, was knocked down by a cab, and
had her left arm broken. She was removed to the Uni-
versity College Hospital.
ANNIVERSARY OF THE BATTLE OF
ALEXANDRIA.—Yesterday morning, being the thirty-eighth
anniversary of the battle of Alexandria, and lamented
death of General Sir Ralph Abercrombie, the first bat-
talion of Coldstream Guards marched from out of the
Wellington Barracks, St. James's-park, for the purpose of
mounting the Queen's Guard at St. James's_Palace, with
their colours decorated with laurel, the regiment having
distinguished itself in the engagement.
THE EXECUTION AT HERTFORD.--.EFFECTS
, PECTS
UPON THE Caown.---The execution at Hertford on Wed-
nesday last, of a third convict, for the murder at Tewin, in
1837, has already been reported in our columns. We now
me°.
insert from the Hertford Reformer some account of the
effects of this tragical exhibition upon those who were as-
sembled to witness it. Around the scaffold,
" The
rity of the people assembled were either boys of from J
be_
tween ten and seventeen years of age, or young servant
girls ; thieves, poachers, vagrants, and loose women
many of them in a state of intoxication, and their
conduct was far from creditable. The anxiety
evinced by parents to enable their children to get
what they were pleased to call ' a good sight*
was most
disgusting. It is very satisfactory to find that very few re-
spectable people were induced to attend. Such was the
anticipated character of the assemblage, that a constable of
of Hoddesdon, who had warrants for the aPPrehensian
of some offenders, attended at the place of execution,
and succeeded in capturing one, of whom he had been in
search for some time, and in lodging him safe in gaol. So
careless and light were the feelings of the People, that they
amused themselves with what is called bonneting one another,
and one young man narrowly escaped punishment for amus-
ing himself in that way on the hat of a constable while passing
through the crowd with his prisoner, as he looked up it
in the light of a rescue. What effect has this public on
exe-
cution had on the minds of those who witnessed it
We walked amid the crowd ; we saw them returning from
the place of death, and from all the terrors of justice, and
marked their demeanour. There was no eye dimmed with
tears ; no pallid cheeks : no sad and gloomy thoughts ap-
peared to oppress them ; but all was' laughter, jest, and
and revelry. The public-houses and beer-shops soon be-
came filled ; the spectators of death went to feasting and
gambling : the quiet of the town was disturbed by scenes
of drunkenness and licentiousness • and the day was a
carnival to the dissolute of the neighbourhood 1"
