safety of England was owing. •
~Bir-PitAamts Palm Mr. Rosa, and Mr. Alder-
•man SHAW supported the Bill, on the groutid of the
necessity of,removing the market somewhere, as the
present accommodation was by no. means adequate,
and as, froth the crowded state of the market, much
injury was sustained by the cattle, and the buyers
and sellers themselves were not exempted from dan-
ger. Though the City had -given the preference to
the grounds in the vicinity of Bagnigge Wells, there
were two other spots that they had in view, and to
which no objetition, it was thought, could reasonably
be made. They wished, therefore, the Bill to 'go
into the Committee, where such alterations might
be introduced into the Bill, as to render it less
exceptionable. The question being called for, the
gallery was cleared ; but the Amendment was car-
ried without a division, and the Bill of course thrown
out.
