RAMSGATE IMPROVEMENT BILL.

Sir E. KNATCHBULL moved that the Ramsgate Improvement Bill
be read a third time.

Mr. PEASE wished the Bill to be postponed for a few days, as an
important alteration had taken place in it which affected his
constituents considerably. The alteration to which he alluded was
in Clause 149. In the former Act, authorising improvements
in Ramsgate, a clause was inserted to this effect, that the Commissioners
were authorised and empowered to collect a cettaiu duty for all coals
that were brought into Ramsgate and landed and delivered. But by this
clause it was proposed to take the duty on all coals brought into Rams-
gate whether landed or not.—(Hear, hear.) That made a very important
change. The harbour was one of refuge, and extensively used in stress
of weather by steamers and others, for taking in coals. It would be
very unfair to compel vessels taking refuge in a harbour which had
been paid for by the public money, and for which they already paid
a very extravagant harbourage, to be taxed in this additional manner.
He did not wish to move the recommittal of the Bill, but thought it
ought to stand over.
Sir E. KNATCHBULL said he supposed the insertion of the word
" and" for " or" was what the Hon. Member meant.

Mr. PEASE said that would answer the object he had in view.

Mr. W. ATT WOOD thought that the Bill should be postponed for
a week, in order that several clauses he intended to propose should be
printed and circulated, and distributed among the Members of the
House. If such an adjournment were not agreed to, he should move
that the Bill should be read a third time that day six months.
Sir EDWARD KNATCIIBULL said that the promoters of the Bill
never intended that coal, which was not landed at Ramsgate, should pay
duty, and as he had agreed to the postponement of the Bill till to.morrow,
for the purpose of altering the def:ct pointed out by the Honour-
able Member for Durham, he thought that delay would enable
the Hon. Member for Greenwich to introduce his clauses. The Bill had
been before Parliament for a long time, and it seas too bad that all the
objections to it should be postponed for so late a period.
Mr. P. THOMSON agreed in the opinion that it was very incon-
♦enient to bring up important clauses upon the third reading of a Bill,
but still a case might ariso where it was necessary, and in order to see
whether they were so or not, Members must have time to consider them.
He thought that an adjournment till Monday would meet the justice of
the case.

Sir E. KNATCHBULL, after what h2d fallen from the Hon. Gentle.
man, could not refuse his consent to an adjournment till Monday.
The third reading of the Bill was then adjourned till Monday.
METROPOLITAN SUSPENSION BRIDGE.

On the motion of Mr. BROTHERTON the Report on the Metropo.
titan Suspension Bridge was further considered.

Captain WENIYSS presented a petition from Fife against the abolition
of the Convention of Royal Burghs.

CABINET UPHOLSTERY, and BEDDING,
at the CABINET-MAKERS' SOCIETY, 71, LEADEN-
11ALL-STREET, Enrolled agreeably to Act of Parliament ;
being real manufacturers in all its branches. The system upon
which this is conducted precludes the possibility of competition for
cheapness, quality, and durability, as not any house in London can
manufacture at these prices. The Society wishes it to be thorougly
understood, that they do not receive hawked or other goods for sale,
like the baeaars and haberdashers ; but they make every article
themselves, which enable them confidently to warrant their goods
of the very best materials. If any fault appear it will be made
good, free of all charge for twelve months. A trial is earnestly
solicited of those about to furnish, as the only criterion by which
the merits and decided advantages of purchasing at this establish-
ment can be fairly estimated. This Society being founded for the
support of industrious mechanics, the funds of which provide for
its members in old age and burial, they therefore sincerely hope that
their humble endeavours will meet with public patronage.

mats of Manilla; 820 bags Siam ; 6,851 bags Mauritius; 150 hhtis.

and .owing to such large quantities, the sales of the other descriptions
went heavy, at easier prices, and where altered, rather lower. Coffee,
407 bags Sumatra; 1,220 bags Ceylon ; 200 bags and casks of British
Plantation ; and 610 bags Brazil. The sales were not brisk, and prices
generally may be said to be rather easier. Saltpetre, 1,400 bags, went
at previous rates. Spices sold as before. The business of the week,
though large in advertisements, has not been so actually. Buyings in
have not been uncommon. The imports arc to a fair extent.

MARYLEBONE.

A young man named James Gorman, well known to the
police, was brought up in custody and placed at the bar,
charged with haying committed a daring robbery at the
house of Mr. John Atkinson, a gentleman of property, in
Camden Town. .

On the previous morning the prosecutor's maid-servant went
down stairs at seven o'clock, and opened the parlour-window
as usual. She had occasion soon afterwards to go into the
kitchen, and on returning into the first-named apartment it
was discovered that during her temporary absence some one
had entered the room, and stolen from the mantel-piece a
valuable clock, together with various chimney ornaments and
other property. Information was promptly communicated to
the police, and on inquiry being made by a constable it was as-
certained that the clock had been pledged at the shop of Mr.
Blackburn, Skinner-street, Somer's Town, and as the descrip-
tion of the pledger answered in every particular to that of the
prisoner he on the same evening was taken into custody.
The clock was produced and identified.
Mr. RAWLINSON (to the prisoner)--Have you anything to
say? Prisoner—Vy, yes ; I've got this hero to state to the
honourable bench. I vos cutting along at a quick pace through
Brill-row yesterday morning, yen a man vot I never seed afore
axed me to bring this here property, vich I did.
Mr. RAWLINION—If you can get twelve men at the Old
Bailey to believe you, you will be very lucky.
He was committed to Newgate for trial.
JACK ASIIORE.—A jolly-looking red-faced son of Neptune,
who gave his name Henry Green, was placed at the bar,
charged by police constable 61 D, who stated that on the same
morning, about half-past five o'clock, he found the prisoner
insensibly drunk in Oxford-street, and he conveyed him to the
station-house.
Mr. tiosKiss (to the prisoner)—W'hat have you to say?
Prisoner (hitching up his trousers, and turning his quid).—
Lord love your Honour, after a desperate long cruise who can
help a cann of grog ?
Mr. HOSKINs—You should be moderate in your drinking,
and not give occasion for the interference of the police.
Prisoner—D—. I beg your Honour's pardon. I won't
swear ; but why shouldn't these blue-coated landsmen let a
sailor capsize himself, and snooze wherever he likes.
•

Mr. fjosKlNs—lf I let you go now, will you promise not to
get drunk again 1 Prisoner (scraping his foot on the floor,
and making a regular sailor's bow)—Why, I can't promise
that altogether ; but I won't do so any more for above a
twelvemonth, in London.

Mr. 1-lossitss—What security can I have that ).ou will keep
your word ? Prisoner—Why, I've got no landlubbers here
who will be bail for me, but I think I can satisfy you myself.
Mr. llostuNs—How? Prisoner—Why, I hope to be off to
Trinidad this afternoon nt four o'clock, and the ship'a now
ready at St. Katharine's Docks.
Mr. HosKiNsThen make the best of your way there. You
are discharged.

HULL.

The Committee met this morning at eleven o'clock, but
strangers were not admitted until twelve, the objection of
Mr. Thesiger, which we mentioned yesterday, having been
under their consideration during that time. When strangers
had been admitted,
.._.

The CHAIRMAN said, the question left yesterday for the
decision of the Committee was, whether the evidence
of Charlotte Bartlett should be received respecting
her husband's vote. The Committee had felt it to
be a question of considerable difficulty and of great
importance, but so far as they had been able to under-
stand the case they had thought, there being a collateral
interest only, it was not of such a nature as that the
evidence ought to be totally excluded. They had, there-
fore, decided that the Lv.deliee or Charlotte Bartlett should
be received, but at the same time that it should be re-
ceived with certain restrictions. 'The Committee, there-
fore, came to the following resolution, that no evi-
dunce be given by the wife as to what the husband might
have said to her, nor was she to answer any question which
might lead to a criminal prosecution against the husband, and
they had decided that the usual caution be given to her, that
she need not answer any question, the answer to which wolld
tend to invalidate her husband's vote.

EXCHEQUER COURT.-(THIS DAY

SPARROW V. JOHNS.
Mr. PLATT moved for a rule to show cause why an attorney
named Armstrong, who had been employed for the plaintiff.
should not send in a signed bill of his costs. The plaintiff hld
been left the executrix to her father's will, which she
proved under the direction of Mr. Armstrong, who was a
relation, and who acted in all matters for her. He brought
the above action in her name, but after carrying the cause a
certain length. he stopped it, and paid the defendant 151. as
his costs. Some differences arose, and he was desired to send
in his bill. He sent in an account, but omitted all charge for
the plaintiff's costs inZthe above action, evidently with the in-
tention of rendering his bill not taxable. There was, how-
ever, one item in it, which clearly made it liable to taxation.
He charged in his bill, the 151. which ho had paid the defen-
dant, and that wag clearly a disbursement ou account of the
cause, and that rendered the whole bill liable to be taxed.—
Rule granted.
