Mr. ATECKETT vas certainly against issuing war-
rants against the churches.

Mr. FULLER considered their refusal to carry out
their own decree as an involuntary compliment they
were paying to Mr. Leslie's opinion. Had they consi-
dered Mr, Leslie's amendments on a former occasion,
they wouli ha% e escaped all the trouble. It was not
now the time to consider the question. What would
they think of the Court of Queen's Bench, alter having
given judgment, on the application of their officers to
carry that judgment into cfr,et, to say, No, we will take
time to consider, and get some barrister's opinion.
Mr. MULLINS replied, and contended that by agree
ing to his motion the Court would not be precluded from
isuing.the warrant at some future day if it should be
deemed requisite.
Mr. BROUGHTON thought it would be better to mo-
dify the motion by introducing the word " now " before
the word "signed."
Mr. Mullins and Mr. Willoughby assented to have the
motion modified by the introduction of the word " now."
Mr. LESLIE objected to having the motion altered
altar it had been handed to the Chairman. It was
contrary to the Standing Orders, and he thought it
important that they should hav, the opinions of propo-
ser and seconder on record, seeing they were both legal
gentlemen. _ _ _

The CHAIRMAN could not put Mr. Broughton's pro-
position as an amendment after the mover had replied.
Mr. GOODRIDiE would then move the adjournment
of the Court.

C4tAin BAnuE seconded the motion for an adjourn,
menr, which was carried by a majority of nine to serea
Tae Court then adjourned to 'I ucsday next.

THE SPECTACLE-MAKEtS' COAT

PAN Y.

On Thursday a Court of the Spectacle-Makers'
Company was htld, fur the purpose of admitting to
their fre2dom Lord Hilsnorough, Mr. Fox Mettle,
Call tin Dundas, Mr. A. Rogers, Lieutenant-Colonel
Campbell, and other distinguished individuals. The
Court of tie Company and the newly-made members
afterwards dined together at the London Coffee-house,
when the chair was taken by the Worshipful Master,
Sir James Duke, M.P. Mr. Hutt, Sir George Car-
roll, Sir H. Nicholas, and several other Members of
Purl ament,. is era present. Atter tt.e usual toasts, the
health of the new members was given with great
applause.
Lord HusßoliouGm said he had been induced to
seek tie freedom of the City of London from the admi-
ration he entertained of her civic institutions, and the
numerous cilantro which it was her pride and glory to
tuaintain.—( Hear, hear.) His name had bt ea enrolled
that day as a member of the Spectacle-Makers' Com-
pany, and he was delighted to form an acquaintance
with the members of the Corporation. He trusted
that associations of that description would ten t to ren-
der the differeot orders of the community better ac-
quainted with each other, and to unite them together
by closer ties.—( Hear, hear.) He should at times be
delighted to contribute to the charities of the City, and
to fi.l any of the offices in the Spectacle-Makers' Com-
pany, which it might be his duty to occupy.—(Cheers.)
There was, however, one exception. He must bar
being Lord Mayor.—(Laughter.)
Song—" The Lord Mayor's Show."
Captain DuNDAs and Colonel CAMPBELL respec-
tively returned thanks for the navy and army. The
former said be felt no hesitation in asserting that there
had been no period of our history in which the navy
had been in a higher state of efficiency, notwithstanding
the misrepresentations which had prevailed upon that
point. If the enemies of old England should be tempted
by the croaking of those who ought to be her friends
to provoke hostilities, which, he hoped, would long be
aye:ties!, the navy of Great Britain would be ready to
vindicate the high reputation which she had acquired
during the brightest days of ber glory.—(Hear, Lear.)
" Tom Bowling," by Mr. Turner.
Lord lirestionouen proposed the health of the
Chairman, which was rece►ved with great applause.

Sir JAMES DUKE said, as an old sailor he felt proud
that the navy had recently proved that she was as ready
as ever to sustain the honour of tlieir country. He
trusted that the blessings of peace would long smile
upon the land, and that the commerce of the City of
London and of the kingdom at large would continue to
prosper. In giving success to commerce, he should as-
sociate with it the name of Mr. Hutt, as the representa-
tive of Hull, a port second only to Liverpool in com-
mercial iin porta n ce.

Mr. HUTT returned thanks, and expressed great satis-
faction at being brought in communication with the
members of the Corporation of the great emporium of
commerce, and one of its principal Livery Companies.
The time had passed away what narrow feelings and
local jealousies estranged from each other the repre•
scram:yes of great commercial interests in diff..rent
parts of the empire. The prosvcrity of every part would
lie best promoted by upriording al nerd' sstein of coin-
h.erei..l intercourse, and thr. Corporation of the City of
London, as the couservators of the noul: river to which
they were indebted for their mercantile grearnesi, did
welt to set an example in m rnifesting these liberal feel-
Ghters.)
The toast The Church," was rezeit ed with great
applause, and the Rev. Mr. J. Judkiri, in the absence of
Mr. Jennings, prebendary of Westminster, who is chap-
lain io the Company, returned thankr•.
Mr. DOLLOND and several other gentlemen addressed
theUonipaily.

Tney separated at 11 o'cloek, after a very =vivid
enjoyment.
