COVENT-GARDEN.-(THIS DAY.)
MEETING OF MARKET GARDENERS.

A numerous and very respectable meeting of farmers
and market-gardeners, resorting to Covent-garden market,
took place this day, at the King's Arms Tavern, Palace-
yard, for the purpose of taking into consideration the Bill
now before Parliament, for the regulation and improve-
ment of Covent- garden Market.
Mr. Wusoser being called to the Chair, briefly stated
the object of the Meeting. He said, that in consequence
of a communication sent from the Duke of Bedford's office
to Mr. Rogers, it was determined to call the market
gardeners together, to consider the Bill before Parlia-
ment. The Bill professed not to raise the toll, but
he understood it would affect the interests of the
market gardeners very materially. The yearly stands at
present average from 30s. to 40s. for which a stand was
held of about eight feet square : but it was proposed by the
Bill to destroy the old regulation, and that the stands
should be held at the rent of Is. Sd. per foot, which would
make a yearly rental of 131. 10s. for a waggon stand.
Mr. W. CHAVNIAN said, it was held out that the Bill
was not intended to raise the revenue of the Duke of Bed-
' ford, but he considered it would have that effect. Above
14,000 feet were reserved for erecting shops and build-
ings, and it was impossible to calculate what rental
those would produce. It appeared, however, that
the rental, exclusive of all tolls, and all that might
be derived from buildings, would amount to 4,380/.
a year; whilst at present it was calculated that only
3,0001. a year was received. Under those circumstances,
it would be for the meeting to consider whether they
should not address the Duke of Bedford with a com-
plaint of the grievance, and ask him to redress it. By
the Bill the Duke was armed with great power, and he
ought to arm those who frequented the market with at
least the power of removing nuisances.
Mr. ROGERS (the Solicitor) said, the greatest desire was
manifested by the Duke of Bedford's Agents to meet the
wishes of all the parties concerned.
In answer to some questions put by different per-
sons present, it was stated by the Chairman, that it was
intended under the new Bill that there should be no china-
shops in Covent-Garden market; but as the same provi-
sion was made in a former Bill just acted upon, it was de-
sirable to have some clause introduced in the new bill, en-
abling the Committee to prevent china shops from being
erected in the market.
