RUM PRICE or COALS.
The Low) Mavon said that, it having been represented to
him from various quarters that the priceeif coals, was exteed,
ingly high, and that as one reason for that excess in price was
the insufficiency of the number of meters, and the delay arising
therefrom'mater,
he had felt it his duty to inquire into the
and found that so far as the meters were concerned, the im-
puted cause of the rise was tintenable, otat least only operative;
if at all, in a very small degree There Were 11)5 ureters in the
city, and eight superannuated. Many other reasons were
assigned for the high price of coalt—excessive speculation, or
some Understanding among - the coal-Mynas : something con-
nected with the freightage of the 'vessel Wes-also talked of, anal
some eorrespOndence respecting mode of effecting Wei which
gave a nominal price to the market. He had not pronounced
an opinion upon any one of these causes, nor did he mean to
-pronounce one now. He was only stating to the Court the
representations which had been made to Idm on the subject,.
and it was for them to consider what remedy ought to be ap-
plied to the evil. It had beeniuggeoAphim, that it would'
be- as well to supply efficiently the:l9W of the eight super-
ennusted .coal-meters—..he meant to give no opinion, as he be,
fore said, on the subject, but after having called the attention
of the Court to the matter, to leave it to them to consider and
apply the remedy.—(llear 1)
Mr. Hu RCO.3IIIE said, that the Court was highly indebted to
his Lordship tbr the speedy manner in which he had called the
attention to so great a public evil as the high price of coals, an 1
he begged to read a paper Which contained sundry calculations
he had made,' and for the accuracy of which he was prepared
to vouch, on the subject. Ile had made a scale of the labours
of these meters, and of the nature of the work which they were
called upon.toperform.
From the calculation here produced, it appeared that the
quantity of coals that can be delivered by 110 deputy meters, .
at 42 cluddrons per day for 311 days, is 1,436,820 chaldrons ;
at 52h chaldrons per dale for 103 working days, (or .4 months)
by the same number of ureters, the quantity will be 694,825;
and at 63 chaldrons per day, for 208 working clays, (or eight
months), the quantity will be 1,441,440. The number of ships'
cleared from January-to November, 1823, both inclusive, was
6,949; and the aggregate quantity of coals, cinders, and clam
delivered, 1,317,316 chaldrons. Mr. Hurcombe also produced,
and read the fallowing statement, under the head of ".Extracts
from sundry Deputy Meters' Accounts :
" The Ann, Captain Ryder, Wm. Hunt, meter, cleared 9th
of Decenther, 5 days delivering'llB chaldrons, 3 vats.
" 'rite Lavinia, E. Grant, meter, cleared oth of December,
3 days delivering 36 chaldrons, 3 vats.
" The Harrisons, J. Gandell, meter, cleared 3d of De-

tad not take out, heing deter.
In these calculations, the worthy Gentleman said, were coM-
preheraed the whole hominess of the meters, anti some klealif
the conduct-of the lightermen: How else, then, multi the pike
upon the public be otherwise titan high, when the trade from
beginning to end was conducted in such a manner ? He con-
cluded by moving for the appointntent of a Committee to take
into consideration the state of' the coal.trade, and Cause of the
high price.
Mr. Alderman Ix CAS begged to set right a main calcula.
tion which the worthy Gentleman fuel, as lie thought, errone.
ously assumed, which was, that the meters were understood to
be constantly at work,—that was not the fact. The meters,
in the absence of the ships, were at times wanting employint.nt,
and, vice versa, the ships at other times had to wait for them.
It was therefore not fair, under the circumstances of the ease,
to alseume that the meters could deliver the quantity set down
in the worthy Gentleman's schedule.
Mr. Sim Et. DixoN said, that this was undoubtedly one
of those subjects which must he fully inquired into. But he
ttuld :more the worthy gentleman who had made the motion,
that every one of his points of inquiry had already been under
the consideration of the Coal and Corn Committee. A repre.
tientatitm arising out of their inquiry hail been made to the
Commissioners of Customs, to allow the meters to work extra
hours during four certain months (then named) in the year :
this was agreed to, except as to one month. The subject would
not pass without adequate inquiry, even though it were not
discussed now.

A Member (whose name we could not learn) said, that he
was a member of the Coat and Corn Committe, and he could
assure the Court, that they had this whole subject under their
serious consideration, and were, to-morrow, to have before thou
merchants, captains, and others connected with the trade, for
the purpose of thoroughly examining the whole subject.—The
motion was then agreed to.

lii.ACKFRIAR9-1311MGE.
A conversation arose incidentally respecting the repairs of
he bridge, when Mr. FAVELL recommended ayetition to rar-
lenient, praying for a. commission to inquire into the state of
he bridge • he thought that ayublic grunt would be then af-
forded, to obviate the inconvenience of a toll, which there, as at
London-bridge,would,be found very objectionable, if not utter-
ly impracticable.
A Committee was appointed to consider the subject. •
MONUMENT TO DON RAFAEL DEL RIEGO.
The .LORD mAyorLsaid, he held in his hand a Requisition
which had been presented to him, most numerously and re-
Ppectably signed, to which he culled their attention. It was
us follows,—

" To the Right nom Lord Mayor :
" We, the undersigned Members of the Common Council,
request your Lordship will call an early Court of Conarnon
Council, for the purpose of granting permission to erect
statue or monument An the centre of the Amphitheatre in
3loorfields, tattle memory of the late. Spanish General Don
Rafael del Riego."
Mr. SLADE moo and said, that before ho entered upon the
immediate object of the motion in pursuance of the Requisi-
tion which had just been read, he begged to present a petition
in some degree conneeetd with it. It was from Mr. John Tur.
ncr, the owner of the around called I Inshury.circus, who had
laid out a great deal of aamey upon, and made the ground on
that site very valuable for the city, and who petitioned that any
statute or embellisinticrit of that nature Should be erected there•
upon, as he leaked upon such an ornament 83 tending to in-
crease t 1
:e value of the grountl.—( There was a laugh from apart
of the CoUrt while the petition ,was reading.)
The petition being brought up and laid on the table,
Mr. SLADE proceeded to address the Court. The dream,
statice of his name sutuding first or the foot of the tequitition

• , y y • .
sent to his Lordship had thrown upon hint the bUrthen of
opening' its Subject matter to the Court; and although he
could not but regret that this task had not fallen into the
abler bands of his Worthy Friend near him (Mr. Emil), be'
would endeaveur to discharge his duty as will as possible
The petition proposed the erection of a statue to the memory
of an unfortunate General of great fame and merit. To sln?w .
that the exertions of that excellent man had not been directed
in favour of:any cause not allowed by our own Government, it
would be sufficient an remind the Court that some time since
the Spanish Regency had applied to our Court for an Ernbaesy
which should recognise them in their political character of a Re-
gency ; and that air. Canning had declined the application, ob.
.serving that this country had already a Minister at the Spanish
'Court; alluding to the 31inister then attending on the'King. It
.ivasecareelynecessary for him to goon to show the national feel.
ing which had been displayed by the people of this country in
favour of.Spaithsh Liberty, but he would just recur to the pro.
ceedings which took place in JUII9, on occasion of the resist-
ance of the Spanish people to the invasion of Buonaparte.
The people of that country desired a Representative Constitu-
don similar to our own ; and, in pursuance of that desire, had
elected Deputies, two of whom were entertained et the City of
London Tavern by a numerous and respectable Company of
Merchants. A sum of 1,340/, was then collected in Kid of their
funds. Recently also a similar dinner had been given to the
Duke of San Lorenzo, the Spanish :Minister, antis liberal sub-
scription was collected on that occasion. This national feel:
fag had been still further displayed in the • course of time
debates in Parliament on the important questions arising
out of the Freecit invasion of Spain, on which occasion
even some of the Ministry luid expressed their wishes for
the success of the Spanish cause, winch was the cause of re.
sistance by representative Government against the insidious
designs as well as the open attacks of the Alliance calling it
self Holy. The public press had also laudably and energe.
deafly given every support it could to this righteous cause.
Its want of success, and the fate of' the gallant General whose
name appeared in the requisition, were well known to all who
beard hint. Having thus generally stated the nature of the
subject which was befbre the. Court, and of the motion with
which he should conclude, he thought it might be as well to
anticipate some of the objectiens Whieh he hail no doubt would
be made to the motion. It might be said that such a motion
was without precedent. This he denied. A monument had
been erected m Westminster Abbey to the memory of General
Paoli and what merits had he to compare with those of' the
late General Rim) ? A monument had also been erected, and
deservedly so, to the memory of Handel, the composer. lie had
therefore clearly idiom that the erection of monuments to the
memory of foreigners was not without precedent. Another
objection might be, that a suns of money had been voted by
the Court for the assistance of the Spaniards ; and that no ac-
count of its appropriation had been furnished to the Coute—
A 8 one of the Spanish Committee, he could state of his own
knewledge, that nil the money voted by the Court had been
properly applied ; and that an account of its expenditure
would be given in due time. A quantity of arms had been
purchased with a part of the money. Those arras were still in
existence, though it might not be prudent to state where they
were. But they would be sold ; and the produce of the sale
would be handed back to the Corporation. There would,
no doubt, be another objection raised, on the ground that
any money to be voted by the Court had better be applied
to the assistance of the Spanish sufkrers who lied survived
the recent conflict, and had taken refuge in this country.—
The practicability of this was, however, very questionable;
for they were high-spirited people, and they appeared not to
solicit or to 'place any value on pecuniary support. The
Canon Riego, in a letter addressed to him (Mr. Slade),
had
.spoken with confidence to the Corporation, &hewing
some mark of reepect. to the memory of his unfortunate bro-
ther. This Gentleman, the Canon, had himself' been a con-
siderable sufferer by the issue of the contest, as the Court
might believe, on recollecting that lie had been a Canon, and
referring to our own 'cathedrals. He was certain that there
was nut one English heart which would not respond to the t'eel-
ings expressed in this letter; and he trusted that the conduct
of Weep would be an incitement to others who wished well to
the muse.
Mr. SLADE then read the following Letter :
" WO. 31, Frith-street, Soho.
it Wcilftc.tday, DecrmLer 10, 1821
" Having learned that so early its to-morrow it hii in-
' tended to move the Common Council of the Metropolitan City
of 'England respecting the erection of a Monument in memory
of nry brother, for whose fate my heart will never cense to shed
tears of' blood, I beg leave, Sir, to assure you, dint both my
sister-in-liviand myself, deep and immoveable es are our griefs,
would feel it to be unworthy of als as !lumen beings, not to re-
flect that our's, as private sorrotaff, ought to be held its subordi-
nation to the feelings of all the virtuous pert of menkind, who
inusfdeeire that the tragical death of Rafael del Memo should
be made as much as possible an incitement to actions such at
this, in the universal Cause of' human freedoM and happiness,
as well as impressively instructive to that end in which we take
a &te at. interest than in our own misthrtenes.
" Thus feeling, we believe, Sir, that the design in contem-
plation would be eminently calculated to answer the great end
in view and, as such, its adoption to us be a higher qualifica-
tion, and n more heartfelt consolation than any pentane' relief
beyond mere bread ; mince we cannot desire aught more ho.
!mumble to him we ament ; nor can we forme that any thing
arising out of-his tragical end could be better calculated for
fixing the eyes of all Europe on this renowned Country, as the
instructress of the nations panting for liberty, and more .parti-
cularly on the City of London, as the centre of England's intel-
ligence and .virtne ;.'where every resorting stranger may learn
the duty of, man to his brethren in all the regions of the earth.
" With Much -respect, I have the honour, Sir, to subscribe
myself, the grateful guest of hospitable England,
ti And yout obedient humble servant,
" MIGUEL DEL RIEGO.
" Robert Slade, Esq., Member of the
Common Council, London." •
Mr. SLADE then resumed—We boasted of our own patriotic
names, Hampden and Sydney; and they were the subject of a
popular toast ; and unfertuntitely too Well did Mega% fate re-
semble that of Sydney : the latter had been condemned by Judge
elefferies, without evidence ; and in the same way had Riego
been murdered by. Alexander. Sydney and Riego had shown
equel firmness to the hat. Indeed, the former on being con-
denoted, put out his arm and desired his pulse might be felt, to
spew its regularity. From the. Holy Alliance had emanated all
the acts which they had to deplore, and one of' which was the
murder of Riego. Their object was the prOstnetion of intellect,
and to establish misgovernment, and of what is called the Holy
Inquisition. They were called on to erect a nuument to a
general who had ably resisted such acts, and he' saw not bow
they could better mark their detestation of the princeiles of
such an Alliance than by such it proceeding. Ile wished to
cell die attention of the Court to the infamous conduct of
the Priesthood of Spain, and regretted that 'they had injured
their own cause—that of Catholic Emancipation. Still how-
ever, notwithstanding the outrage and violence tit... Despots, and
the present apathy of the people, the time would come when
the scene would he changed—when the former would be sube
(hied, and the latter would recover their rights. In conclusion
he would only observe, diet he concurred in opinion with their
petitinner, Mr. Turner, that the erection of the Monument in
question would ranch improve the property of the neighbour-
hood, es all foreigners would flock to behold it, and it would do
honour to the Magistrates under whose government it should be
erected. Mr.'Slade here read the following Resolution :-;-
" Resolved—that this Court is deeply impressed with the
importance of those exertions which have lately been made in
Spain, in favour of national freedom ; and although such at-
tempts have been for the present suppressed by the French
arms, we feel bound to declare, that the right to alter and amend
their own government, without foreign interference, is the in-
tlieouble right of the people in every nation. upon the tote of
the Globe, and that such rights form the true basis of British
Liberty recognised at the Revolution- of Ittlift.' And having
learned the high character and pittriodsm which distinguished
the late Spanish Genteel, Don Rephael del Me o, in his en.
dearours to maintain the system ofOniernment which had been:
recognized by England, de must cordially allow his friends toe
erect tr ,tattio or mounment to his memory, in any part of the
Amphitheatre of Moorlichls."
Mr. Favietre rose to second the motion. lie would take up
but little time of the Court, after the opening speech which
had been made ; and he should be ashamed to think there was
any necessity to arouse the public feeling in behalf of the memory
of a brnve man, tvlio'had fallen in defence of the liberties of his
country.. The Spaniards had demean in their power to rebut
the abuse. poured upon them, but they would recollect diet the
sane abuse was once beetewed upon the great Washington.—
Mr. Forel' then Minded to the Constitutional principle* which
had pliteed Mr. Waithtnan in tin,. Civic Chair ; and said, that'

„ . 'The ReSolution was then read by the Commeniierjeant..
Aid. Sir C. It titeTzu wished the Worthy Aloveeiif the lit
i-
lotion had devissxl some better plan to revive a guNlect; which
every good man heartily desired, to be buried imobNvitm. '• As'
he wns fond of short speeches, he should only say that the
subject had been most unfortunately treated, althealei he'
would allow that no pereon was more to kei pitied than the
General, whose cite they were culled upon to reluniiserkte
but why should we net rest with the bleseiogeetif• pence, and
" damp as they now are," and- not bring up things-with whiell we have nothing to do. lie thOught they were travelling out a their duty, nut only in moving the erect.on of the statue, 'but
even in allowing it. He did not doubt that ,when the. army
which wore still in the halide of the Spanish Committee were Sold, the produce would be applied to the purpose of erecting
the statue in question. They were nut to he e.uped by the
hypocritical speech of a Roman Stu:liter—that the, goad deeds
of men live afur them, whilst the misdeeds are buried with
them. He thought the evil would-lie 4 after them, and such
would be the case with the memory, of Itiego—we ought! ra-
ther to erect statues to the men who had. preserved us from
danger. The Worthy Morer, however, had had recourse to tin
usual topics of declamation ; the fate of liemptlen &id Sydney.
Their names might sometimes i i introduced into a speech
with some effect; hut on the present occasion he thought the
allusion very unfortunate. in all that could he said in praise
of Hampden and Sydney he cordially agreed ; bet surely their
names needed not to be mentioned on :loch a nietion as this,
which was to promote the erection of a Statue to a Foreigner,
when no statue had been erected to either'llatupden or Sydney.
He had no hope-by his simple voice and retired habits to alter
the intentions of the Court; but he would do what he thole&
his duty, and therefore appose the motion by Moving the pre-
vious question.
Air. S. Di :cox regretted exceedingly that the motion had
been brought forward. The mover and seconder had, he seid,
bandied compliments to each other, yet as it was in hurt kind
ness find modesty he should pass that over, but he wits sur-
prised at the conduct of the seconder, who now voted for the
Monument of Riego, when he recollected that ut 411 times when
a vote for a charity was proposed, he cried out " remember
the state of the fonds of the City." Nothing coirla have
been more awkwardly brought forward than tins proposition,
particularly in the petition of .Mr. Turner, who was introduced
its nn instrument. The Court had no right to imerfere. to point
out what sort of Government should lie introduced into Spain.
Me not the max% of the people in Spifin 'congratulating the
Sovereign on the change which had beets effected ? and had the
Court therefore a right to pronounce an'opinion ? Ile ehould
wish to knoW how the statue was to •be erected, thr he should
not like to see an Opportunity afforded of putting upon the
statue language which they aught repent of. ilesithe, if we
must erect statues, let it be to deservitag'cluwaetem Of our Own
country, and not to foreigners, There wits no telling where
the creation of statues would end; they would next have the'
litatue of the Lord Mayor.
His Loupteury here said, he hoped he should live the ycar.
out.

And then, said Mr. Drum, we shall all feel the effects of
your goodness. Ile would never object to the relief of the re-
fugee Spaniards ; but certainty he must protest atratnst the lie-
solution for the erection of thin monument. lie was glad to
see Ni) full a meeting, as he trusted they would justly appreciate
the danger of the experiment which WAN now making ; and he's
appealed to their plain good sense to mist it.
31 us apposed the Resolution, because lie thought that
there was nothing in the cane of Riego to deserve such a tribute
elthough Oent/emen on his side could feel as warmly as these
who brought forward the measnre, in behalf of the unfortunate
sufferers by the war in Spain. lie thought the introduction, of
the Petition front Turner exceedingly injudicious, and con-
siderisi that a great deal of unnecessary time had been taken
up by the Mover ,tad seconder in dissertations upon the Holy
Allitnee, which bad nothing to do with, the affitir of General
Melo. lie concurred With a preceding speaker in Opinion that
when the units purchased for the Spaniards .Were sold, the
anninnt would b 0 applied art an introduction to ti subscription
for a monument to itiego.
Mr. Wm:sit said he had HOparty but his country, and being
independent, he would speak openly itgaiitu that 'Holy Al.
hence which was tyranntaing over kurope, arid wished to
sink England into the sea. If the foreign Potentates would
not grant a-free Constitution like that of Old England, they.
must be prepared for the worst: Germany was ripe for re-
volt, and the flame would spread rapidly.,...a watch-word 'only
Would be lequired. !le would stand upon the rock of Bri-
tish liberty, and vote for the Resolution. Let the syco-
pliants come forward boldly, and cull him a.Partisan if they
dared. Buonaparte aimed at universal military despotism,
but he had sown the seeds of civil and religious liberty where,
ever he went. Russia might kick against the pricks—the
cause' of God would 'flourish—and the Bible and independence
would extend throughout the world. Here Mr. Welsh got very'
warm in allusion to one of the last speaktrs, and was called to
order. ' Oh, Sir Claudius, said be—ahhough the flame of
berty is extinct in Spain for the moment, it shall, pliernix,like,
burst again, in spite of all opposition ; and Sir Clatidinti—
(Loud cries of " Order I order! ')—Here 'the iipe:tkr eon.
eluded.

• .11.1 r. GAL LowAY rose to support the motion, considering that
Riego was one of the most honest and noble-minded men that
ever existed in Spain. He had given to his 'country a govern-
:intent, not of the award but of free representation ; anti he
would oak, was not such a man entitled to the veneration and
respect of every man who loved 14 representative government ?.
Nothing could be more creditable to the Court than to grant
the permission solicited. The time was fully arrived when they
Shetld open their ey,s to the obvious principlem of despotism ~,;• and lie had no doubt that the Holy Alliance would, it' they I;ad
the means, direct their attacks against the liberties of it
Ilritain, with the Same authority as they had done “zT,ill,;t those
of Spain. Some such manifestation of sympathy Itti thil 111),V
IMPOSed WaS much wanted, and it would do helium. to o:is city
and to the country. He should be very sorry that the Cqurt
should give an unconditional permission for the erectioa Of the
monument : on the contrary, if there was not a 14edge that •it
should do credit to the age and to the taste of Elli And, be
would object to the Resolution,
Alderman C. Swt.rit. wished to hnnw what had become of
the lONi. grantcd by the City to the Spaniards ?-- (The worthy
Alderman was out of Court when the explanation was given.)
Mr. Vicious said, the motion had been brought ferwt.rd
too hastily. •In his opinion it would be time enough to find-the
ground when they had raised the subscription. Ile should veto
agehtst the Resolution.
Mr. l'amst :mid, the only doubts he had ever entertained
on the subject was, whether the Common Council would have
virtue enough to agree to the motion for which he should vote.
Mr. R. TAYLOR followed on the same tide. There had been
tome questions he was sorry to say when they were considering
the dead: pr a man who was cruelly murdered by the •Despoon of .Europe who had combined against the people ; foul he saw
no reason why the people should not ruinlune againq them.—
The cause of Mega was the cause of liberty .eVery where, and above all of England. There was too much reason to suppose
that our Alinisters had acted their part of destiotisin on the Con-
tinent, and as their conduct had been, to say the least of it,.
equivocal, it was the greater reason why the people should now speak openly. It had-been said that if Riego bad fallen in
the-field, we should have heard nothing of this motion ; per-
haps this was true.' In his opinion the eireumateocea of his
murder were what justified the motion. • A worthy Baronet
(Sir Claudius Bunter). had said the afildrs of Span thight tO
be buried its oblivion but he trusted that the Murder of Hiegel
would never be forgotten; and he hoped the curses of all man-
kind upon his murderers would ring in their ears until it was
avenged. Ile had doubts of the prudence of the nii.wmrti but
as it was brought forward; he would support it. Ile added that
the Governors of the London Institution had expressed their%
hearty concurrence in the measure. - •
The Question was then callettfore--The Officer of the Court
read the Atnendment, which was put and carried. Come.
quently.the motion for erecting a Illonutaent was lest-
