FLEET STREET.
Mr. SAVAGE complained that, in consequence of the new
Paving Act requiring that the streets should be paved in the
night, Fleet street was now in a state of great confusion.
had been going on for six weeks, and he would be bound to say
that no part of it just done was in a better state titan before.
Indeed it was impossible to do it well in the night.
The Loup Mayon said, a more intolerable nuisance could
not exist than this, and he expected a petition from the inhabi•
tants of that quarter.
A petition from the Inhabitants of Fleet-street was then read,
complaining of the nuisance.
An Inhabitant said, that they had made application to vari-
ous quarters, and had received no redress.
Mr. Deputy VALE supported the petition, and moved that
it be referred to the Commissioners of Sewers.
Mr. S. Dixoat contended that the Commissioners were not
to blame.

Alderman GARRATT said, the paving could be effectually
done by night; as had been proved in the Ward of Alderman
Venables. lie feared there was some blame attaching to dr,
contractors, for there could be no reason for leaving the olt,
stones for weeks in the streets.
Alderman VENA BLEB corroborated this, and stated that mall
contractors would act in direct defiance of the Act of Pelt
ment, which imposes it penalty of 501. He hoped this o°l
be fully inquired into by the City.
The LORD MAYOR had directed his officers to refeet to lilll
all kinds of nuisances. If the Court would do noth isg in 11'6
he would, as he rather thought he had the
power to direct the
City Solicitor to prosecute the offending parties for a nuisance.
The RECORDER said, there could be no doubt that this Wes
a nuisance, punishable by Act of Parliament.
