MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE—WEDNESDAY
Since Monday, a very limited quantity of English
Wheat has been received up to our market coastwise as
well as by land carriage. As a good clearance of the
stands was effected on that day, the show of samples this
morning was small, owing to which, the prevailing damp
weather, and the unfavourable reports which continue to
reach us respecting the potato crop, the demand for all
kinds of Wheat of home produce was somewhat active,
at, in some instances, an advance in the quotations of
from is to 2s per quarter. Only 1,210 quarters of
Foreign Wheat have come to hand this week. Selected
parcels were held at 2s per quarter more money; while
the middling and inferior kinds ruled is per quarter
higher, with a very steady demand, chiefly for in-
land consumption. Bonded parcels were the turn
higher. Superfine Barley moved off steadily at
an improvement in value of is per quarter.
All other kinds were quite as dear. There was a
better feeling in the Malt trade, but without alter-
ation in value. Oats were in better request, and really
good Corn was slightly on the advance. Beans and
Peas sold on former terms. Indian Corn and Meal were
dearer to purchase, while Flour was very firm.

BOROUGH HOP MARKET.
Our market continues to rule excessively dull, for all
kinds of Hops. The supply of which on offer is by no

CHANCERY..,—(THIS DAY.)
The Lord Chancellor sat in the Old Hall, Lincoln's
Inn, to-day to hear appeal motions and appeals.
DAWES V. DETTS.—JUDGMENT.
The LORD CHANCELLOR, who intimated on Saturday
last the impression he entertained with respect to this
ease, gave judgment on it this morning at the sitting of
the Court. The case came before his Lordship upon
appeal from the decision of the Vice-Chancellor Wi-
gram, in respect to the validity of title to make a good
lease for 21 years, in right of the granter being tenant
for life of a property charged with a trust to a lady,
Mrs. Dawes, under her marriage settlement. The case
had been referred to the Master, who had reported in
favour of the validity of the lease. Exceptions were
taken to that report, and on their coming on
before the Viee-Chancellor Wigram, he allowed those
exceptions, being of opinion that the lease was an in-
valid one. The Lord Chancellor, in giving judgment
this morning, thought the trustee had properly exercised
the power he had in right of his being tenant for life.
The plaintiff had not suffered the defendant to labour
under any misconception as to what was intended to be
granted under the lease. The defendant knew what it
was be covenanted for, and the whole course of the
plaintiff's conduct, who clearly had legal authority, had
been directed to give validity to the lease. He must,
therefore, reverse that part of the judgment of the Court
below which allowed the exceptions, by ordering the
exceptions to be overruled, and confirming the report of
the Master, with costs.

HOLYOAKE V. THE BRREWSBURY AND BIRMINGHAM
RAILWAY COMPANY.

The arguments in the appeal motion in this case
against the judgment of the Vice-Chancellor Wigrain,
directing the trial of an issue at Gloucester, occupied
the Court the remainder of the morning.

Nothing of any interest occurred in any of the other
Equity Courts.

SECONDARIES'.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Secondary JAMES.)
GAMES v. PERRY, JUN.—A SERIOUS CASE. •
This was an action brought to recover the sum of Id
on a promissory note alleged to have been drawn by de-
fendant in favour of one Willets. Defended pleaded that
he did not make the note.
Mr. PRICE, the plaintiff's attorney, stated the case.
The defendant resides at Wolverhampton, and Willeta
lives in Bilston, in Staffordshire. Although there was
an imputation of forgery, he thought that he should be
able clearly to show that the mark was that of the de'
fendant, by the evidence of a person who actually dreg
the note, and witnessed the defendant making hie mark.
Thomas Davies, an assistant to Mr. Cooper, an auc-
tioneer at Wolverhampton, was called, and wig
present when this note was, made: Charles Perri
made the mark in my presence, and I wrote his newe-
-1 read it over to him first. It was made payable to
Willets, for services rendered.
Cross-examined--I am a clerk to Mr. Cooper, bag
not altogether. I keep other people's books. willete
met me, and said he wanted me to do a little writing,
and we went to a public-house at Millfields, near 01'
ston. The note was given for Willeta. obtaining a "
leasement" of Perry from a partnership. I cannot re;
member the exact words. I did not go to Perry and
say that Willets had asked me to be a witness,
but that I said I would not perjure myself.
I went to him and said that if I went against
him he must lose, for I must speak according to Nu Con-
science, and must say that I saw him sign it. I went to,
him to give him a chance. By giving him a chance,
J•
mean that when I heard that he had been served with *
writ I went to him and told .bietshe bildbetter put in a
plea against it, as
,I•was,v,tdff:o4c,`,lteli(nd;iand it WO
very likely I should:nOt• I. did ;net say if br
gave 61. I would swear,* did not sign. • '
The defendant's Counsel said it was alwilyaa painful and
difficult case where each, a.setiii suu rge,,,as dim of forger!,
was set up, and, if lin Iv ryl 'l4ightlit*tteted, he alumlo
be able to prove that the note was made by Willeta WO'
self, and at quite a different place.
The SECONDARY asked how that could effect the.
plaintiff James ?
Defendant's Counsel said that might effect him by
inference, for one of the remarkable features in the ca 90
was that they could not find out who the plaintiff was, ; ,
for although a summons had been taken out before •
judge- -the only answer to the question was that they
were out of time. There was another point of great
importance, and that was that the action had not bees
brought in the County Court, where not only Willets
, but the defendant might have been examined, bat
Willets had not been called.
Sarah Lees was called, and deposed that she resiaei
at Milifield, and keeps a public-house. On the 22d 0'
March last Willets went to tier house, and his daughter
took him a stamp, which he filled up, and said "Attu
conquer," and asked her to read it. She said e' Cavil°,
not, and Willets said he would read it to h6rand he dj°
so. He said it was to make Pee,i2 pay him, as Per
was to give him 104, but wouldnot. Willem wrote the
whole of it, and made; theinark. She (witness) at the'
time told him that he didn't ought" to have put Perry'a,-•
name to it •'lle said that Perry had promised it to bine:
and 'he would be d—d if he would not make bias
pay. Davis afterwards went in. Willets told Davis
that he would give him 505. to come and swear it was
Perry's sign. Davis said he would do so, and Wiliest
said that he would not have it tried in the petty cour,tr,
for he would be conquered there because he was so w.eu known. Willets is a file cutter close to her. On the
9th of March Willets called on her from Perry for
bill for 181., for things sold, and said that if I would 0,1 him 51. he would swear that he saw me pay Perry 187
Believed Willets had not worked for two years, and did
nothing but go about the country defrauding them is
this
.manner. _ _
In cross-examination she persisted. that Willets read
the paper over to her, and that she knew it again. The SECONDARY said 'that this evidence might poe
sibly involve Willets and Davis, but could not affect tile
plaintiff—it might be that there was a gross fraud and
great iniquity, of which plaintiff, however, was wholly
ignorant—that somebody was committing gross and do'
liberate perjury there could be no doubt. Mr. PRICE continued the examination, and wanes!
said that she told Perry, on the 23d of March, OP
Willets had forged his name.
Mr. Thomas Wilton, defendant's attorney, was called.
and said that when he was instructed to defend, he went
to the magistrate's for a warrant against Willets, bat
could not get one, as he could not show the bill. .9
believed the defence, knowing Willets' character, and
that there were a great many other crude of the SaPly
Sort.

Mr. PRICE protested against the remarks. lie the,„
addressed the jury, and said it was incredible that 01
man, however lost to honesty, would be so lost to common
sense, as to deliberately make admission, which xnusty,..l
made, be conclusive evidence on which he might
~
°
transported for life. He called on the jury to discredit
the whole of Lees evidence, as being utterly improbabiei
The Learned SECONDARY summed up, and said that
it was a most extraordinary fact, that if Lees told
cde-
fendant of the forgery on the 23d March, defendant had
done nothing till the trial was coming on.
The jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff.
The SECONDARY said he should have had no besita"
tion in giving a verdict that way.

-entleman the Member for Limerick (Mr. Smith
0 'Brien) had been absent nearly the whole of the ses-
ta, en—(Hear, hear)—and, altogether, those who acted
yr ith him in the matter of repeal had not availed them-
se Ives of the many opportunities that had presented
th emselves of discussing the motion.—(Hear, hear.) He
felit, therefore, he was justified in styling such conduct
as contemptible and ludicrous.
The SPEAKER here intimated that he had made in-
qt dries of the proper officer, and he had been informed
th at the division bell was rung last night when the
llt 'use was counted.
ilr. REYNOLDS did not wish to take upon himself
the responsibility of the sins of omission and commission
of every man, particularly those of his Hon. Friend the
Mel nber for Limerick.—(Laughter.) Recently all the
Rep eal Members that could be numbered, amounting to
nine —(Laughter)—met in a Committee-room, and re-
aolvE d unanimously to bring on the motion—although
tilers was some difference of opinion among them on the
matt er—(Laughter)—in the early part of the discussion
that' 3nsued, he being amongst those who considered that
the t notion should not be proceeded with this session.
ould say for himself and the other Repealers of
Ireland that they were not actuated by the base motives
that had been attributed to them by the Hon. Baronet.
The Repealers of Ireland, the moral-force Repealers,
were no parties to insurrection, but were totally averse to
it. He thought some apology was due from the Hon.
Baronet for the imputation he had cast upon a body of
men whom he believed formed nine-tenths
of the Sepastion of Ireland. He thought it
wise on Oho part of his Honourable Friend
?An Member for Longford to withdraw the measure; but
In re: %king that statement he begged to assure the House,
that if no other Member did it, he would himself bring
forwilrd the mere in another session, in order if pos-
sible to obtain those rights for his countrymen of which
they. had been deprived.
Mr.. H. GRATTAN considered that the Honourable
13orce iet the Member for Marylebone was most
tinkin d as well as unjust in the attack he had
made on the Repealers of Ireland. Much had been
said a bout traitors. Men had been called traitors be-
hind their backs; why not call them so before their face.
He ltended that the people of Ireland had a right to
overturn Ministry after Ministry until they had ob-
tained justice; but in making that statement, he did not
mean for a moment (God forbid he should) to overturn
the Throne. All he wanted was to overturn the
Ministry. He believed that the repeal of the
Union would be carried out of the House if
it wag not within it.—(Hear, hear.) Talk of
revolution—why had not that House effected a revo-
lution in Ireland? for that country, which was once
happy, had been rendered miserable by the legislation
that had taken place in that House. The people of Ire-
land considered that the House of Commons in England
was incapable of legislating for Ireland, and they asked
for a domestic Legislature.—(llear, hear.) He believed
hat everything had bees done in Ireland for the pur-
pose of convicting innocent persons in Ireland. The
present state of Ireland was this: they would neither
give to the dead a shroud or a coffin, nor to the living
the liberty of the constitution or food.—(Hear,
hear.) Ile was no advocate for the separation
of Ireland from England. All be asked for was justice
to that country. The people of England ought by their
acts to inspite the Irish with love for them, but they did
the contrary. In private the Irish respected the people of
England, but publicly they were compelled by the acts of
their Legislature to hate them. The whole policy of the
Legislature of this country was to make Irishmen poor, to
take from them their gold and their crops, while their
endeavours ought to be to make them rich and
happy ; instead, however, of doing this, the
• Government of England took away the scales from
justice and left her nothing but her sword. He wished
to live on friendship with this noble country, but he
would rather not live at all than be the slave of any
man, or any set of men.—(Hear, )bear.)
After a few words from Mr. C. ANSTEY in expla-
nation,
Mr. LTRQUHART said he was astonished to hear an
Hon. Gentleman enjoying the historic and great name of
• Grattan defending repeal by justifying rebellion.
Mr. H. GRATTAN—No, no.
Mr. URQUHART was glad to hear that H9n. and
Learned Gentleman disclaim the imputation. Ile felt
bound to condemn those men who had agitated Ireland
upon questions they had not legitimately brought for-
ward in that House. Being sensible that if repeal was
carried it would have the effect of placing the Orange-
men of Ireland in a higher position than they at present
held, he could see a very good reason for abandoning
the measure at the present moment.

CsairrANY.—The directors and proprietors of this coin-

directors be and are hereby authorised to dispose of the
as of the company, either by ptiblic auction or private
fnutract, and wind up the affairs in such a manner as
okay deem advisable." The motion was seconded and
Iltimiscstudy adopted.

FASHIONABLE DISPLAY.—The chief source for
employment of labour in the metropolis has this season
been crippled more from the effects of cold damp
weather than from political excitement or any other
cause commonly assigned. But happily, during the
last few days, the July sun has shone forth with its
usual intensity, acceptable to agriculturists, as tend-
ing to ripen the crops, as also to London manufac-
turers and tradesmen, who are encouraged to pro-
duce such novelties as may be considered suitable to
the season and the tastes of their patrons. One corro-
borative instance can be cited whereby employment must
have been given to many hundreds, in the production of
an entirely new fabric made into a new form of Paletot.
"A garment now become almost general in the several
substances adapted for each season; but a patent has
been secured for this new specimen of manufacture by a
firm whose transactions are of very considerable extent,
having large warehouses in the West End as well as in
the City, and whether it be considered as being only ap-
plicable to-India and other such climates, the consump-
tion of the article must be immense, besides recommend-
ing itself by an elegant appearance and agreeable
lightness to the visitor of the sea-side, the tourist, or the
man of fashion in this country."—The Globe. This high
encomium evidently referring to Messrs. Nicoll, of 114,
116, and 120, Regent-street, and 22, Cornhill, they re-
spectfully beg permission to give further publicity to the

to is by them charged One Guinea. The New Regis-
tered Paletot, retaining predecessor's moderate price,

IMPORTATION OF BRANDY.--A vessel arrived from
the Mauritius has brought, in addition to a large cargo
of sugar and 75 casks of rum, the produce of the Isle
of France, 10 cases of brandy, consigned to order.

Exams or SAILORS IN TILE NAYT.—There are
2,000 more seamen in the navy than provided for on the
estimates; that number will accordingly be paid off as
convenience or policy may dictate, in accordance with
the recommendation of the late Cobden Committee. The
Collingwood and Kingfisher, paid off this week at Ports-
mouth, have decreased this 2,000 by 800, and the Fox
frigate and Hecate steam-sloop, hourly expected, will
decrease it about 500 more. The next line-of-battle
ship, therefore, home from the Mediterranean, will com-
plete the 2,000 to be paid off.
ROYAL COLLEGE OF SuRQEoNS.—The following
gentlemen, having undergone the necessary examina-

REVIEW OF THE BRILTISII CORN TILADE.—The
weather has within the last few days become unsettled,
but the rain which has hitherto fallen has not done any
injury to the grain crops ; in some localities the corn
has been more or less beaten down and lodged,
but if fine dry weather should succeed, this
would probably be productive of no mischief.
Wheat has now advanced so far towards maturity
as to allow of something like an estimate being formed
as to the probable yield per acre, and after careful in-
quiry among our agricultural friends, we are sorry to
say that the promise does not appear to be par-
ticularly good. In the home counties the produce
will, we feel satisfied, be considerably less than
last year, though perhaps not much below that of
average seasons ; and this seems to be the case
pretty generally over the southern and western parts
of England; in the northern districts the crops are hardly
as yet sufficiently forward to allow of much being said
on the subject, but on the whole we are not sanguine as
to the result. The most serious cause of uneasiness is,
however, the spread of the potato diseases on this subject
the accounts have, within the last week, become rather
alarming. That the disorder has during the last eight
days made progress, is, we fear, too true a many of our

pains to collect facts from quarters least likely to be in-

present is, that if the late or main crop should fortu-

doubts on the subject.--Mark lane Express.
WOOLWICH, JULY 25.—A court-martial assembled
in the mess-room at the Royal Marine barracks yester-
day, Lieutenant and Adjutant W. S. Foote officiating
judge-advocate, for the trial of William Francis, private
of the 13th company, for mutinously insubordinate
conduct. The trial is concluded, but the sentence will
not be promulgated until it is sanctioned by the highest
authorities.

In a letter, full of point and pith, upon the subject of
Marriages of Affinity, which is published in the Ap-
pendix to the Commissioners' Report, the Archbishop of
Dublin says:—" I think you will find four in five mis-
take the real question—i. e., they will consider the real
question to be, whether it be an advisable sort of marriage.
But ask the same persons whether they think it advisable
for a man to marry his servant-girl, or a woman young
enough to be his daughter, or old enough to be his mo-
ther, &c. ; and when they answer No, ask them whether
they would have a law to prohibit such marriages, and I
think they would then perceive that it is absurd to keep '
men in leading-strings, and to take away all right of pri-
vate judgment whenever it is possible for men to judge
wrong." Ihe desire to enact one's own sentiments into
a law for othor people is, indeed, the essence of all
bigotry and the germ of persecution. In the present
instance we have no doubt that the feeling of the
great majority of the English public, entirely ir-
respective of the law, is, and will continue to be,
averse to marriage with a sister-in-law ; a similar
feeling exists in many minds against a marriage
between first cousins. But the opinion or feeling of the
majority upon subjects of this nature cannot justify a
prohibitory statute against the sme'ler class, who are in-
fluenced by no such sentiment, or in whom it has been
over-ruled by the force of circumstances, or by such a
peculiar domestic position as we find illustrated in many
painful instances by the evidence before us. A recent
controversy supplies us with a close analogy. No
doubt a large majority of the people of this kingdom
Rill always prefer, if you give them the choice, a Chris-
tian representative to a Jewish one. We do not blame
them for this, but we do blame those who seek to perpe-
tuate a law which forbids all the rest of the community to
do otherwise. The Commissioners, after referring to
the continued prevalence of the prohibited marriages,
notwithstanding the legal penalties, observe—" The
common foundation of such marriages is the familiar
intercourse which necessarily prevails between a man
and his sister-in-law, when, upon the death of a wife,
she assumes her sister's place in the care of the
children, and in the superintendence of the domestic
establishment. We believe that among persons who have
not passed the middle age, attachments will tee very
frequent whenever the sister of the deceased wife comes to
live under the roof of the husband." " The end of such
a state of things," they add, " among the poorer classes,
in a great majority of cases, is either marriage or con-
cubinage." These conclusions of the Commissioners are
powerfully borne out by the evidence, especially by that
of members of the clerical profession, both in the Church
of England and other communions, whose ministerial
duties, performed in populous districts, have brought
them into close contact with the poor. We extract the
following passages from Dr. Wiseman's evidence—not
that it differs from the statements of other witnesses to
the same effect, but because it forcibly depicts a case of
ordinary occurrence, and because the organization of his
Church, and his position in the central districts of Eng-
land, give a value to his experience of the habits of the
poorer classes. Dr. Wiseman says—" In the middle classes
it generally results from the sister having lived, perhaps
for some years, in the family with the wife, the health
of the wife perhaps being delicate. The wife
dies and leaves a young family : the husband
has his business to attend to, and has no one
to take care of his children ; and the sister-
in-law has no other shelter; probably has lost her pa-
rents, or has been living for many years in her sister's
house. I had an instance where she bad been living 17
veers in the family, and had been a second mother to the
Children. The case is very trying for both parties. There is
an attachment naturally between them from their having
lived so long together. To bring a stranger into the
house weld probably be disturbing the peace and happi-
ness of the little family. The children are attached to
their aunt, and it appears altogether the most natural
arrangement for their happiness, as well as to prevent
the sin, probably, of' cohabitation without marriage, that
a dispensation should be granted. That, I should say,
is the history of nine out of ten cases which I have
had to deal with." These Dr. Wiseman describes
as the ordinary cases, but there are others, as the
personal statements of some deeply interested par-
ties testify in the higher and more conspicuous
walks of life, where the pressure of motives urging
to these connexions derives an intense force and sanction
from the most touching of all inducements, the death-
bed request of the wife anxious for the children she is
leaving behind her. We may refer to the evidence
of a witness, reported at page 24, whose name is not
disclosed. The particulars are shortly these :—The
wife of this gentleman, who is a stockbroker,
died in 1840. " She had said before her decease,
that she should die happy I could- marry her
if
sister, who had lived withus during our married
life, and whr4 she said, would be as kind to her chil-
dren as herself." The wife died in 1840, and the mar-
riage of one daughter and the death of another, at
the age of twenty-four, left the witness with three
young girls in the school-room. After this event it
became a question with the sister-in-law's family
whether she should remain in the widower's house or
not.. The wish that the difficulty should be removed by
their union was first suggested by her brother, repre-
senting the feelings of the family. The widower at file
hesitated how to ask. He consulted the rector of his
parish, now a bishop. The rector consulted the
Bishop of London, who answered, " that no individual
use could alter his general views of the subject." He,
however, went so far as to consider the matter with
another prelate (who, we may infer, took the opposite
view), and the rector reports that the two bishops both
agreed in not resting the case upon Scriptural grounds,
which the Bishop ofLondon said he thought "by no means
suffiaiently certain to rest upon." The fact that two bishops
thought the marriage not unlawful on Scriptural grounds,
decided the witness as to his course, and he married his
sister-in-law in Denmark, where such unions are autho-
rised by law, with the entire approbation of her family,
in 1844. The opinion of society seems to have sanctioned
the step, for alt the friends and acquaintance continued
their intercourse as before. Many similar cases, but
some attended with more painful circumstances, are re-
corded in this volume. The argument, as far as it turns
upon expediency, urged by Dr. Pusey and other advo-
cates of the present law, is, that by maintaining the
restriction you "extend the domestic relation." By
making a marriage with a wife's sister legally impos •
sible, you place her, say they, in the position of a real
sister, you prevent the occurrence of any feelings
towards her but those of pure natural affection, and
vou enable her to remain nnblamed in the house of
nor widowed brother-in-law, which otherwise she
could never do. We deny the soundness of these
positions in tote. They proceed upon a thorough
misconception of the power and functions of human
laws. Statutes cannot control human sentiment,
nor Acts of Parliament operate either against, or in
the place of, the laws of nature. The desires and
affections of mankind are founded in the laws of their
physical and moral being, not in those of society, and the
latter will never possess a binding force unless they are
in unison with the former. In the present instance ex-
perience has proved this to be so. For centuries these
marriages have been under the ban of the law in England,
yet, from the highest to the lowest class of society, they
119.VC been more or less prevalent. Twelve years ago it
was found necessary to enact a new and more stringent
law: still, in the face of its tremendous social and civil
penalties, these marriages have continued to take place,
us the statements of this report and the very existence
of this Commission abundantly testify. And when it is
suggested, as a matter of fact, that the law at
present actually controls social opinion, and is an
operative remedy against scandal, let us apneal to the
opinion of any man who knows this censorious world,
whether it is really possible. sacely and blamelessly, for
a young and attractive female to live alone in a house
with her widowed brother-in-law, under the present state
of things, and whether any prudent family would.sannecrs-
tion such an arrangement? No. The Commis
have stated the conclusion of truth and of conmosn,-msense
in the concluding paragraphs of their report:--"These
marriages will take place when a concurrence :

The evidence as to treating at Stockport was restrined.( N-ti S_kta
One witness stated that he was promised by one of Mr.
Leigh's agent, that in the event of his losing his situ*.
Lion through voting for that gentleman another should
be procured for him. Upon the faith of this
promise ho polled for Mr. Leigh, and was imme-
diately afterwards dismissed from the employment
he was then engaged ie. Subsequently, how-
ever, another situation was procured for him by the
gentleman who had canvassed him for Mr. Leigh, and he
was also paid 12s. for the loss he sustained in being out
of employment for a few days. On the polling day he
and a number of other voters were supplied with refresh-
ment tickets, but he understood that the publican who
honoured the tickets had been informed that ho would
not be paid his bill till after the petition had been dis-
posed ot. Another witness, while giving evidence of
treat-ng, accidentally let out that before polling he met
one ot Mr. Leigh's canvassers, to whom he stated
that he had a great disinclination to vote for that gen-
tleman, whereupon the canvasser gave him 15s. to set
his teind at rest on that point, and carried him off there
end then to poll for Mr. Leigh. A lengthened argument
arose as to whether this part of the evidence ought to
remain on the notes, or whether these two instances of
bribery could be pursued further. Is was contended by
Mr. Merewether, the counsel for the sitting Member,
that, as the petitioners had abandoned their allegations
of bribery, the Committee ought not to allow the evi-
dence of bribery to proceed further. The Committee
decided against the objection.

VAUXHALL-BRIDGE COMPANY.
A meeting of the proprietors was held yesterday at
the George and Vulture Tavern Corubill (Mr. Parnell
in the chair), for the purpose of considering the pro-
priety of rescinding a resolution passed at a general
meeting of the proprietors, on the 4th of May, by which
the committee were recommended not to incur any law
expenses in resisting the claims made on the company
for land-tax and sewers' rate, and to authorise the com-
mittee to resist payment of such claims, or either of
there. The advertisement convening the meeting having
been read, the minutes of the last general meeting were
recited, by which it appears that the amount of land-tax
demanded was 141. Us. Bd. An amendment had been
moved that the Committee should pay the amount or
not, according to their discretion. The amendment was
negatived by a large majority.
The CHAIR &N stated, that at the last meeting On.
this subject, it had been very properly stated, that it was
not worth the while of. the company, for such a sum as
a little more than 141., which was the amount demanded
of the proprietors. But it had been also properly stated
that the wedge, when once inserted, would soon be
driven home. And so it had proved, for instead of 464 L,
which was the amount to which the property was formerly
assessed, the rate bad now been charged on no less a sum
than 5,9681., and the land-tax, instead of amounting to
about 1 61., was now 1511. The same rule held with regard to
the sewers' rate, for though the only charge now levied
was upon 6004 on the Surrey side, yet there was every
reason to believe that the same excess as had been ob-
servable in the land-tax would also be noticeable in the
sewers' rate.

A resolution was then submitted, giving to the direc-
tors legal powers to resist these charges, or not, as they
might think best, the Chairman stating that Sir Fiteroy
Kelly had positively given his opinion that the shares
being personal property, the bridge was not liable to
laud-tax.

A conversation ensued, from which it appeared, that
although the probability was great that the imposition
of the land-tax might be avoided, a resistance to the
sewers' rate was hopeless, at least so far as the costs
were concerned. The resolution was ultimately divided
into two, one for rescinding the resolution previously
passed, so far as the land-tax was concerned, and the
other with respect to the sewers' rate, and both were
passed.

Thanks were then voted to the Chairmen and com-
mittee, and the meeting was dissolved.
