COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL.

The Court assembled for the despatch of public .1)1191-
;less. The list was a very large one.
THE FREEDOM TO SIR EDMUND LYONS.
Mr. Dt;nuty DAMN gave notice of motion, that the
freedom of tlsis ancient City be presented to Admiral
Sir Edmund Lyons in a gold box of the value of one
hundred guineas, in testimony of his distinguished
services.

THE SITE OF THE FLEET PRISON.
A report was brought op from the improvement
committee, recommending that no steps should be
taken for the appropriation of the site of the late Fleet
Prison until it was determined whether anything is to
be done respecting the removal of Newgate market,
and
the arrangements of the markets Of the City genelly,
and whether any alterations were likely to be with
resect to the Central Criminal Courts and themade gaol of
p
Newgate.
In the discussion which followed,
Mr. T. H. HALL, the chairman of the committee, said
mine at the s p
ug-
of a new street, which bad been exam
that personally he had inclined to the opdn that a lan
gestion of Mr. Ross, would be likely to be eligible, but
the architect of whose skill andon experience so hig
if ch
arried
timate was madean
was of opini that the plan, t
into execution, would not give satisfaction. He moved
that the report be agreed to.
Deputy MOLT thought the site referred to would
be a capital place for the erection of baths and wash-
houses.
Mr. Ross expressed his surprise at the opinion pro-
nounced by the architect. The necessity for a new
f he daily palpable, and would be still
greater
m
contemplatedore removal of Newgate-market
street becamet
should take place. For the space of 14 years the ground
had been unoccupied, during which time the serious sum
of 34,0001. had been wasted. He should move as an
amendment that the report should lie upon the table,
and that the question be referred to the City lands com-
mittee.
Mr. HAWKINS seconded the amendment.
After some discussion, in the course of which it was
mentioned that the question of the new street was
masked for early consideration by the Board of Works,
the amendment was lost, and the report agreed to.
THE OFFICE OF COMMON SERJEANT.
The voluminous report upon the office of Common
Serjeant was read, and the election was appointed to
take place at the next court.
CONSTRUCTION OF NEW CITY LAW COURTS.
A. report was read from the City Lands Committee,
to
whom it bad been referred to ascertain whether the re
.
cent alteration in the law authorising the appointment
of two Courts of Nisi Priva to sit at the same time
within the City rendered it necessary to provide any
new courts; and also to consider whether any, and
what, alterations shoulti be ruscio 4e -preseat, courts.
