THE METROPOLITAN INTERMENTS BILL.

Mr. J. Low, the Chairman of the Parliamentary
Committee, brought up the report of all the proceed-
ings of the committee upon the reference respecting
the Metropolitan Interments Bill. He wished, before
the report was read, to make a few observations upon
a question which he considered de-ply affected the in-
terests of the public—a feeling in which he was anxious
the public should believe the Corporation strongly
participated. He felt it to be his duty to express
the strong feeling entertained upon the subjeot of
interment as proposed by the Government in the Bill at
present before Parliament—a nasivure which he should
not hesitate to declare contained details of the most ob-
noxious character, and of which they were bound to ex-
press their most unequivocal disaporeb ttion.—(Hear.
hear.) To the principle of the Bill the committee
offered no objection. On the contrary, it had long been
their opinion that intramural berials should be totally
discontinued. But in the metropolitan Bill there were
clauses of so decidedly un- English and mischievous a
character that it was necessary to mention them with
peculiar condemnation. There were two clauses in par-
ticular to which he should draw the attention of the
Court. The first was that which referred to the remu-
neration of the clergy fur the loss they would sustain
by extramural interments. That clause had, no dour,t,
sprung from the object of strengthening the hands of
Government by the sanction of the Church authorities
whose approval might be considered necessary to the
passing of the Bill.—(Hear, hear.) But what was the
proposition? It was, that the clergyman who held
any Church property in any burial ground which was
ordered to be closed should receive compensation in
perpetuity, 6s. 2d. for every corpse ding within his
parish and buried in the comtemslated public ceme-
tery. Now, that sum was much greater than was
given in many of the parishes in the City; in some of
which the fee was, in fact, limited to 25., and in others
ls. 6 1.—(E1( ar, hear.) Upon what pretext the clergy
were to be compensated to that extent he could nut
guess. He admitted that thy were entitled to compen-
sation for the injury to which they would be subjected;
but he, for one, should certainly obj-ct in the strongest
manner to the id-a of compensiving in perpetuity.—
(Loud cries of " Hear.") It' a tradeemeu's shop were
removed for the improvem,mt of a aeighb.,urhaod, a re-
compense ought of course to be male to him; but who
would ever think of granting, in soca a c iso, a perpetual
compensation? He repeated, the: h,, could net coejec
ture upon weat principle such a clause could be intro-
duced; and he thought every Digli .hmen ought to pro-
test against so mischievous an attempt to entail a serious
burden upon posterity. Why the Bill was passing the
House of Commons with such large majorities he could
not imagine, except it was because the country Mem
berg calculated upon the mere fact that it affected the
metropolis, and therefore were indifferent to its defects.
They ought to remember, however, that the system
would soon, if adopted, be extended all over England, and
the operation of its obnoxious clauses would be without
limit or control.—(Bear.) There was another objection-
able clause to which it was necessary to call the attention
of the Court. The Bill would give power to the Board of
Health to purchase lands, to appoint officers, and to
perform other duties which at present devolved upon the
corporation, and for the purpose of being enabled to
carry out such important objects that body were to be
authorised to tax the inhabitants without giving to such
inhabitants any chance of control or voice in the ques-
tion of the taxation of themselves under the peculiar
circumstances of the case.—(Haar, hear.) It would not
be possible for the corporation te submit to so obnoxious
and prejudicial a system, and the committee had come
to the determination to advise the Court to petition both
Houses of Parliament. They had, in order that no
time should be lost, desired the Remembrancer to pre-
pare a Bill for the city of London, from which Bill the
objectionable clauses bad been removed. That Bill had
been printed, and a copy of it had been transmitted to
every member of the Court, and the committee had
sought and obtained interviews with Sir George Grey
upon this important question. They, however, re-
gretted to state that they had not received the slightest
encouragement from that Minister, nor had they been
induced by him in the smallest degree to expect that
there would be an exemption in favour of the city of
London from the operation of the Bill.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. WOODTHORP, the clerk of the Court, read the
report. It stated as follows:

That your committee, having considered the subject,
agreed to certain propositions as forming the heads of
the proposed Bill fur the city of London, and they ap-
pointed a deputation to wait upon the Right Hon. Sir G.
Grey on the subject : and the Remembrancer having
obtained an appointment For a conference with that
Minister, the same took place accordingly on the 1641 of
May, at which were present, Mr. J. Low, the chairman
of your committee ; Mr. E. Harrison, deputy; Mr. J.
Wood, and Mr. H. L. Taylor, accompanied by Mr.
J. Masterman and Sir J. Duke, two of the representatives
of this City in Parliament, and attended by the Remota-
brancer, when the deputation requested that the city of
London might be exempted from the operation of the
Metropolitan Interments Bill, the corporation undertak-
ing to introduce a separate Bill for the city of London
in conformity with the proposition agreed to by your
committee; when Sir G. Grey expressed himself disin-
clined to exempt the city of London from the Metropo-
litan Interments Bill, but stated that ho would consider
the draught of a Bid for the city of London if sent to
him by the corporation. That your committee accord-
ingly directed the Remembrancer to prepare the draught
of a Bill to make provision tor the interment of persons
dying within the city of Loudon and the liberties
thereof; and the same having twett duly con.iderA end
approved by your committee, they directed a copy
thereof to be transmi,ted by the R, merebranet.r
Sir G. Grew, and a fur her c.,nf,renee to h
questod with him on the suojec-. That
of th.• Bill w.s accordingly sent t, Sir G. Grey, bat
although repeated applications were mavie by tie
metubraucer and tile City Members, no apooin, nicht
could be obtained for the purpose before the 6ta inst.,
wl:o.n the conference took place, at which were present
Mr. J. Low, accompanied by Mr. J. Masterman, and at-
tended by the Remembrancer; but Sir G. Grey din not
hold out the least encourseent• nt for excluding the city
of L ndon from the operation of the Metropolitan In-
terments Bill, and stated that should even that be con-
ceded, the session of Parliament was too far advanced to

admit of the probability of a separate Bill being passed r
for the city of London. That your committee being de-
:irons that the whole subject should be brought under
the notice of the Hon. Court, directed a copy of the pro-
posed Bill relating to interments within the city of Lon-
don to be sent to every member of the Court. That
fiod'uz an early appointment could not be obtained from
Sir G. Grey, the Renaombrancer requested the presence
of the City Members on the Metropolitan Interments
Bill going into Committe- of the whole II :use of Com-
mow, when an ineffectual opposition was made to delay
the further progress of the Bill by moving that it should
be referred to a Select Committee of the House of Corn•
mons. That notwithstinding the opposition of the me-
tropolitan and other Members, the Metropolitan Inter-
ments Bill has passed the Committee of the whole House
of Commons, with the exception of a few clauses, which
will possibly be agreed to on Friday next. That, under
these circumstances, your committee do not consider
that there is any reasonable prospect that Parliament will
in the present session pass a separate Bill for the city of
London.

"That your committee, however, are of opinion that
many of the provisions of the Bill are most objectionable,
and will interfere with the just rights and liberties of the
inhabitants of the city of Lond,m and other places within
the jurisdiction of the Bill, and they therefore recom-
mend your Honourable Ginn to prevent petitions to
bulb Houses of Parliament (if neceesary) against the
Bill, and that your committee should be empowered to
continue in every way to oppose the progre>,s of the Bill.
" That the R-membrancer having, under our direction,
preptred draughts of petitions to both Houses of P,r-
lisrnent against the said Bill, we have approved the said
draug,ht petitions, and submit the same to this Honour-
able Court."

Mr. Deputy HARRISON said, he considered it neces-
sary that the corporation should prepare a Bill for the
City, and he was glad that in introducing the report Mr.
Low had stated some of the reasons which this com-
mittee had for advising the Court to petition against the
Metropolitan Interments Bill. He hoped that every
member of the Court had read that Bill, for it contained
materials the most injurious to the interests of the in-
habitants of the metropolis. The proposition made by
the Government to give to an irresponsible body the
power of levying rates, without giving to the ratepayers
the least authority on such a subject, appeared to him to
be monstrous and completely uncons'itutional. The
Goverment had no right to attempt to give such a dan-
gerous control. That was the most important of the
objections to the Parliamentary measure. It was worthy
of remark that the Bill which had been prepared by the
corporation proposed to exempt the rate-payers from the
payment of any rate whatever fur the purposes of inter-
ment, as the corporation would agree to raise the moneys
required on the credit of the City seal, the sums arising
from the interments to be appropriated from time to
time in liquidation of the sums so borrowed.—(Hear,
hear.) The corporation had ale ays advocated the re-
moval of the dead beyond the City confines, but the Go-
vernment had not afforded them the least encouragement
in promoting the Bill which had been so carefully and
maturely considered. They had been told that they
ought to have applied last session; but who could say
what would have been done if they had applied at that
period? He could tell those who reproached them
with delay that he happened to be connected with a parish
on account of which an application was made
to that effect last year; but the answer wa,
that it would be imprudent to press the question at that
time, because a measure was to be introduced in the
latesent session calculated to give perfect satisfaction to
all parties.—(Hear.) The result was that the parochial
authorities concerned made no further attempt, in order
that they might not be charged with a disposition to
throw impediments in the way of the measure which
was to accomplish so much general good.—(Hear, hear.)
lie assured the Gaul that he had reason to know there
were some of the promoters of the Metropolitan Bill who
were not to be trusied„ who were unscrupulous persons.
Mr. Harrison proceeded to contend against the prin-
ciple of dispossessing the ratepayers of the power they
had been exercising so beneficially, and said that.
although the Bill was going through the House of Com-
mons with great rapidity, there was another House
through which it would not pass, at all events, with
such majorities.—(Hear.) He also contended against
the proposal of compensation in perpetuity as absurd
and preposterous, and called upon the Court to be una-
nimous in their appeal to Parliament.
Mr. NoRRIS did not consider that the conduct of the
Government had been candidly represented upon the oc-
casion. It had been intimated that the corporation had
wished to carry out the objects proposed in the Bill
before Parliament, and that the Government would nut
let them do so. The fact was, however, that the Go-

vernment had set about doing what the corporation had
neglected to do, and then the corporation wanted to
undertake the work themselves, so that the proposition
as to the corporation Bill and the recommendation in
the report came at that time with a very bad grace.
They had for years done nothing in relation to the sub-
ject, but the moment the Government had instituted
vigorous measures, and with noble perseverance pro-
posed an extensive remedy, the corporation of the city
of London was aroused from its guilty slumber, finding,
to its dismay, that a stop was to be put at last to the
evils such neglect bad inflicted.—(Hear, bear, and a
laugh.) He conceived it to be the duty of the Court
not to oppose the measure; the conflict would certainly
not be doubtful. The corporation would be defeated and
disgraced also.
Alderman SIDNEY reiterated the opinions which he
bad already expres.ed in Parliament upon the subject.
Mr. ELLIOTT proposed, as an amendment, the fol-
lowing:—
" That this Court receives the proposed Government
scheme for the abolit,on of out•of--town interments with
great approbation, and desires that no local interests or
prejudices should interfere to prevent the passing of the
proposed Bill."
He denied in toto the doctrine laid down,'that the cor-
poration was entitled to distinguish itself by the title of
an elect.ed body, and said the argument would fall to the
ground a; to the right of the Common Council to ad-
minister the affairs of the ratepayers. It was the duty
of the Government to do as they proposed to do by ad-
mini,tering the provisions of the Interment Bill inde-
pendently of local influence or local prejudices. Ile,
therefore, supported the proposition on the part of the
Government. He objected most strenuously to the
clause having ie'crence to the clergy. but be took it
willingly, bad as it was, because by bribing the clergy
the advocacy of a great power in the ware would b.
secured. He freely owned that the payment in perpe-
tuity of the clergy was an evil. but it was between a
choice of evils they were to decide. The question was,
should they forego paying a small tribute to the priests,
or suffer 2,000.000 people still to remain deprived of tne
blessings arising from out-of-town interments.
There appeared to be no seconder of Mr. Elliott's
amendment, and the original motio❑ was put and
carried. The petitions were then read and adopted.
SMITHFIELD MARKET.

Mr. H. L. TAYLOR, the oa.trman of the Markets
Committee, brought up the following report:—
" We, whose namrs are hereunto subscribed, of your
Markets Lnprorement Committee, to whom by an order
of this Hon. Court of the 20th of December last it was
r,f,!rred to carry in'o execution our report then pre-
;witted for tur•ter powers than arpearwl to lxi contide4
to us by former referenc,s, do certify, its addition to our
former report, that, in pursuance of such reference of
the 20th of December last, we directed a statement to
be prepared to be laid before the C )mmi,sioners, so us to
represent to them the objects and opinions of the cor-
poration, more particularly with respect to the specific
questions of inquiry submitted to your committee by the
Commissioners.

" Your committee also directed several plans to be
prepared by the architect for the alterati,.n, enlargement,
tied improv,m-nt of Smithfi..ld and Newgate markets;
we carefully considered such plans, and finally selelted
the one which appeared to us to meet all the require-
ments of the case, and directed that a description of the
same should be embodied in the statement, to be accom-
panied by a plan and model, subject, however, to the ex-
press understanding referred to in our report of the 20'h
of December last—that no plan suggested by either the
Commissioners, your committee, or the deputation, wa
to he considered as binding upon the corporation, with.
out their distinct approval having been obtained. The
statement having been prepared was considered and
agreed upon, and firwarded to the Commissioners, ac
companied, as above-mentioned, by plan and model; and
your committee have caused to be hereunto annexed a
copy of the statement and plan for the infJrmation of
the Court.
" The Commissioners having made their reports, which
have been laid on the table of the House of Commons,
and ordered to be printed, copies of them have been pro-
cured by your committee, bat so recently that time has
not been afforded for due consideration of them; and,
your committee purposely abstain from making at pre-
sent any observations upon them; but should your Hon.
Court be pleased to refer these reports to your committee
we will immediately take the same into consideration and
report thereon."
Upon the motion of Mr. H. L. TAYLOR, the report
was ordered to be printed and circulated, and the con-
sideration of it was adjourned to a future day.
THE SMOKE NUISANCE.

Mr. ANDEATON informed the C..urt that in the large
brewery of Messrs. Truman and Hanbury, and in se-
veral other establishments where the inventions of prac-
tical men had been tested, the result was so grad-
tying that where at one time the poor of the neigh-
bourhood were half smothered by the dense volumes of
smoke from the furnace fl ues, at present not so much
was to be seen as could soil a lady's handkerchief.—Ad-
journed.
