The LORD MAYOR addressed the Court, and stated
that he relied upon the kind and able assistance of his
brother Magistrates in the discharge of the importsi4

THE RESIGNATION OF ALDERMAN HAliMilgA. had
The LORD MAYOR stated that the Town glee'
put into his hands a letter addressed by Alaer'-'3
Harmer to that officer, on the subject of the resign/ 0S
of the gown of the ward of Farringdon Without.
The letter was then read, and was follows :--
" Ingress Abbey, Kent, Nov. SO, 1840.
"My dear Sir,—At the termination of the late els&
tion for the Mayoralty, I resolved to retire from the,
Court of Aldermen, but as the sessions at the centres
Criminal Court was about to commence, with a verl
heavy calendar, and three of the Aldermen who we/
on the roll with me were unable to take their share
the duty, I determined to attend throughout that aefe
sions k
, that no inconvenience might arise to the I
business, and therefore postponed sending my resign;
tion previous to the termination of the sessions. 1 !oat!
subsequently induced to delay it until the present Pell
_1 been
to avoid keeping up the excitement which ha- - the
caused by the contest. I now, however, resign .0
gown of the Ward of Farringdon Without ; nod'
taking leave, beg to express the grateful sense I do now!
and shall always, feel for the many kindnesses I ha"
experienced from yourself, and all the officers of the C 41...
poration.—l am, my dear Sir, your's faithfully,

-
Ald. FAREBROTHER—I take it for granted tua.
letter of resignation, addressed " to the Town Clerk,"
to be considered official?

Mr. Woodthorpe—Certainly.
Alderman CorEL4ND—It is official, but not usual.
Alderman BROWN (evidently with a desire to preve.o
further comment on the subject) moved that the resit'
nation be accepted.
Sir PETER LAURIE seconded the motion which was
carried.
Upon the motion of Alderman BaowN, a precept
was issued to the ward of Farringdon Without for the
election of an Alderman in the room of James Harmer,
Esq., resigned.
After some discussion about hospitality and religions
destitution,' a vote of thanks was passed to the late
Lord Mayor, for his excellent conduct during his
Mayoralty.
Alderman WILSON then moved an address of con-
gratulation to her Majesty upon her safe delivery.
Upon this a long discussion took place about the
absence of Aldermen on the day the Common Council
met, and various other topics of little interest to th°
public.
The motion of Alderman Wilson was unanimously
agreed to amidst cheers. The address was then draw°
up by a Committee of five Aldermen, and submitted to
the Court, strangers being excluded, and unanimously
agreed to.
Addresses to Prince Albert and the Duchess 0f
Kent were also adopted amidst acclamations.
