At the Court of Common Council on Thursday,
Mr. 'Wells made a speech which caused a great deal of
laughter. A motion was made that the Court should
grant the sum of 1,0001, to the poor widows of freemen,
instead of the usual annual vote of 500/., on the ground
that a Prince of Wales was born. It was objectedb

was better,
