meeting of the Directors and Proprietors of Waterloo Bridge wt.%
held yesterday morning at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, Sir Jo-
seph Yorke, M.P. took the chair at one o'clock. Ile then read to
the meeting the resolutions which were intended to be adopted fur
the means of opening a street to run from the Strand, opposite
Waterloo Bridge, to Charles-street, Covent-garden, .40 as to join
the north-west part of the metropolis. The sum required to carry
this great undertaking into effect would be 43,000 L-25,0001. of
which the Government had offered to the Directors and the Duke of
Bedford 4.0001. The object of the meeting was for the Company
to raise the sum of 5,0001. on bonds. The hon. Chairman then
read a letter which he had received from the Duke of Bedford,
dated Woburn Abbey, July 1, in which his Grace states that
nothing could give him greater pleasure than to forward so benefi.
cial an undertaking, and that if the company could get through the

lestates of the Marquis of Exeter, every facility should be afforded
to carry the whole into effect, and if it was necessary to have any o
the houses on his estate pulled down for the completion, it should be
Idone. The Chairman. observed, that something should be immediately
done, to prevent the rebuilding of the English Opera.house on the old
'site. Several propriatorsopposed the voting of the 5,0001. till It was
certain Government would lend Its further aid. After some discus.
cuuion as to the possibility of carrying the line of street, beyond
Charles.street so as to join Tottenham.court.road, the Chairman

lobserved, that although the Government and the Duke of Welling.
ton were for rigid economy, he felt persuaded that when once the
undertaking was begun they would not be backward in affording
any pecuniary assistance for its completion. The vote for raising
5,0001. was carried by a great majority, and a Petition will be pre-
sented to Parliament next Session.

the proprietors of the St. Katharine docks took place yesterday at the
Dock-house, T. Tooke, Esq. In the chair, when a dividend of l 6 per
cent. was &missed upon the capital stock of the company for the half.
year ended the 30th of June last. The Chairman stated to the meeting
that although the dock act required that an annual account only of the
'receipts and disbursements should be laid before the proprietors at
the annual meetings in January in each year, the directors consi-
dered_ it due them to furnish a statement for the half year.
copies of which were upon the table ; and he had the pleasure
to announce, that notwithstanding the diminution which had taken
place in the foreign trade of the port during the first six months of
this year. as compared with a corresponding period of the year pre-
ceding, the business of the docks had progressively increased. After
some observations from one of the proprietors respecting the accom.
modation afforded at the steam-boat wharf, which led to a very
strong expression of approbation of the arrangements adopted by the
Company, the directors for the past year were unanimously re-elected
for the year ensuing.

AM JONAH BARRINGTON.

The Duke of WELLINCITON 'no% ad the o-Arr er the day fur
,the further consideration of the case of Sit Jonah liartio.tion.
Sit Jonah Barrington, from below the bar, tuni he hud only just
leat.ted that his case was to be called on that . vening, tied Itz was
therefore wholly unprepared to go into his dett.....;, Hi et,,vid the
'indulge. sec of their lordships by allowing hint Lahr time.
The Duke of WELLIY%OTt IN said the Mouse were anxious to
give every Gritty to Sir Jonah Barrington, but he thought their
lordships would do no injustice by receiving such parts of the evi-
dence as would not touch on those points on which S:r 3 °Lull Bar-
tington said he was unprepared.
I. vent were then put in which• passed between Sir .1,.: :h Bar-
rington and Mr. amid Pineau, the Registrar of the A.hltiralty
Court in Ireland. which closed the case t"r tile Gown.

Sir Jonah Barrington then matte the same applic.ttion for an ex-

HOUSE OF (231310 NA, Jinx 13.

The Registrar of Madras Bill passed sl:roug'• a committee, and
if engrossed, will be read a third tine this evening.
The Report upon Sierra Leone was Inovglit up and ordered to he
printed.
Mr. R. GRANT brought in a bill to amend a rat+ ty of Acts
passed in the prearnt sesaton. The bill we it through all its stag nt
and was passed.
Ur. H. GRATTAN procnted a petition from John Hugh..s, a
Chclra patakioner, complaining of beteg discharged flout that ca.
tablishment. The hut. member in doing so, &halt dto the di,.
tressed state of Ireland. He eon/thieved the main cause of the di,-
Ism in Ireland arose (tom absenteeism. There were four millions
and old acres oi" unreelaim,d laud in Ireland, and if a system were
adopted by which this land were to be cultivated, much good ttoeld
arise to Ireland.

Mr. W. HORTON thought that the co:ily way to reclaim
Ireland was by adopting a proper and cfreztive system of etni-
gratron. He thought that the state of the people of this country
was of much more importance than that of the people of Portugal,
or even those whose situation was occupying the attention of the
house that night.
Mr. 8. RICE thought that the cruntry wart bound by a debt of
gratitude to his right honourabie friend, for the perseverance whit
which he pursued his excellint plans for the amelioration of the
condition of the poor of this country. The reason that money w; s
not advanced to reclaim bogs in Ireland, arose from the state of the
law, and not from any feeling against the principle of emigration in
Ireland.

Mr. HUSKISSON concurred in the compliment paid to Lis
right honourable friend by the member fur Limerick ; but he
did not think that some of the observations by his right ho-
nourable friend related to him (Mr. Iluskisson.) Although he
opposed the. plan of emigration brought forward by Lis right
honourable friend, it did not follow that he was an enemy to all
plans of emigration.
Lord KILLEEN asked if it was the intention of government to
suggest any plan for the relief of Ireland ? He thought that sonic
grant, by way of loan, could be made by the government with great
advantage to that country.
Sir It. PEEL said, it was not the intention of his :Majesty's
nisters to vote any grant of money fur the relief of Ireland; but in
taying this, he hoped it would not be supposed that the government
lid not fed the deepest sympathy in the distress of the country. lie
thought the intervention of parliament in this respect would have an
advantageous effect He thought the landlords of Ireland ought to
act in such a way as so alleviate the distresses of Ireland—(hear.)
Here there was a tax to prevent the occurrence so much to be re-
gretted in Ireland. The nature of Ireland's distresses was under
the consideration of the government, and seine measure would be
adopted, at the earliest opportunity, for the permanent benefit of
Ireland.

The petition was then brought up, read, and mitred to lie on the
table.

After a few words from Mr. Hume, Sir R. PEEL, and Mr. W.
Hon Tow,
Mr. THAN f said that, in extreme cases, the government ad-
vanced loans ; for instance, they did so in the cue of the distress in
Lancashire, some years since. Unless some course were adopted
with respxt to Ireland, they would hare a constant recurrence of
those scenes which had so recenily taken place in that
Mr. HUME presented a petition from the attorneys of the court•
of Westminster, complaining of the accommodation in the courts.
