CITY GAOLS.

On the recond leading of the London Gaols Bill.
M•. I.FORD hoped the Hon. Alderman (Sir
W. Curtis) would now have seen, that this Bill would
not infringe on -the :C4lll‘tieution of the City of Lon-
don, as he had dreaded it would. The object of this
Bill was to have. other Gentlemen on the Committee
for inspecting the City Gaols, besides the Court of Al-
dermen, and th.)se he proposed to take from the Corn.
mon Council of the City of London.
Sir W. CURTIS said, that the Court of Ahier-
men had always paid every attention t:i the state of
the Gaols: bat Newgate had lausly been crowded
r.ith a greater number of prisoners than it was built
to contain. The Hew gaol would soon he ready, and
then that would relieve the others in Newgate He
then moved that the Bill should be read a scc••ind time
this day six months.
Sir J. SHAW seconded the motion. He stated,
that the Court of Aldermen had voted 2 lb. of meat,
without bone, a week, and 14 ozs. of bread a day to
each prisoner; an allowance more ample than en-
joyed by the poor in Yorkshire, Ireland, or Scotland.
Mr. M. A. TAYLOR said, there was not a worse
regulated prison in the kingdom. The Court of Al-
deimen might be very good in their way, but it
seemed they had not a fancy for managing a gaol—

After some observations from Mr. BATHURST
and Sir J. ACLAND, the House div;ded—For the
second reading '23—Against it 18.— The Bill was
then read a second time.—Adjourned at one o'clock.

We have received Paris Papers of Saturday—A'

hiding to the subject of a Treaty of Commerce, the I
Gazette de Prance contains the following remarkable
passage :—.44 For these twenty years the progress of
the cotton manufactories in France has been such,
that we have been able to supply all the cotton goods
which fotmetly were brought from India, Switzer-
land; and England ; and 'a!io to supply the wants of
the whole Continent from the Adriatic to the Baltic.
A single line in a Treaty of Commerce may annihi-
late all these advantages, teduce to beggars 600,000
workmen in France, and tender us tributary to a fo-
reign market for the most important of our consump-
tions. Let us not fear, however, that these weighty
considerations will escape the most enlightened of
Kings, 2nd the excellent Ministers by whom he is
surrounded."

The Moniker of Saturday contains no proceedings
of the French Senate, or Chamber of Deputies. It
is filled with Decrees respecting the reorganisation
of the Army, previous to placing it on the Peace
Establishment. On the 15th of July, a Grand Re-
view is to take place in every Department of France,
when accurate returns are to be made fxom e'er/ re•
