Mr. R. 14. JONES moved that the Court subscribe Ills
sum of 500/. in aid of the funds arising from her Iliajes-
ty's letter for the relief of the distressed manafacturers
of England and Scotland. He thought it was unnecessary
to make any comment upon the subject, well knowing
that the Court would most willingly accede to the appeal
which had been made to their compassion.—(Hear.)
Mr. P. TAYLOR proposed, as an addition to the propo-
sitien of Mr. IL 1,, Jones, " That the Court recommend
that the money to be-granted in nid of the manufactu-
rers be laid out in the purchase of corn, to be admitted
free of duty, and that the Government be petitioned by
the Court for that object,"—(Hear, hear, and No, no.)
After a short conversation, •in which the Recorder
Mr. Wire, Mr. Pewtress, Mr. W. Jones, and Alderman
Farcbrother joined, the original motion was agreed to,
Ind Mr. P. Taylor's addition was negatived by a snatdi
majority.

Inc Court then proceeded to the election of Town
Clerk, in the room of Mr. Woodthorpe, deceased ; and
on the rotes being taken, the Lord flavor declared Ser-
geant Merewether the successful candidate, the naltibcrs

A RUMOUR —There has been far several days Go-
vernment business before the House of Commons, which
the Government has rot been very anxious to forward.
Either the Ministers do not care about such questions as
the important one of bonded corn, or they are not averse
from protracting the session. Rumour s-2y-s tae last is
the fact. Sir Robert Peel's uneasiness is palpable ; the
distress of the country is unrelieved, and being unrelieved
will show its disastrous effects on the revetintte..

desirous
of keeping Parlia-
