Wand mails arrived at an early hour, and the letters
were distributed over every part of tlmmetropolis at
a convenient and stated time of the day. But the
foreign mails arrived at all hours, and it was neces-
sary for a foreign merchant to send perpetually to
learn their arrivcl. The removal from Lombard-
street, which was now widening to obviate the only
objection that he had ever heard to the situation of
the present Post Office, would be an act of monstrous
inconvenience to the City at large, and was projected
for no purpose that he had heard,.except to gratify a
few clerks, in enabling them to drive their gigs out
of town with fewer interruptions.
Mr. ROSE bad reason to think that sufficient ac-
commoJation for tyre Post Office business was not to
be procured in Lombard-street. It was true, that
strong representations were made by the merchants,
but the result, he trusted, would prove that they,
would sw,t4in no' inconvenience.
Mr. M. A.' TAYLOR highly approved of the
outline of the alterations proposed in the Board of
Works.
Mr. 1-1. SUMNER conceived it required much'
examination, particularly with reference to the inten-
ded Post Office Establishinein.

Mr. WYNNE made some observations on the pro.
jetted erections for the ensuing rejoicings. The bridge
on the Canal was rather a waste of money, as it was
built merely to be blow" tyl. (41 laugh.)
Leave was given to bring in the Bill.
Lord COMPTON presented a Petition from North-
ampton against the continuance of the Slave Trade.

relative to her colonies, as affecting the Slave Trade, ,
particularly the Cape of Good Hope and Ceylon ?

Lord CAbTLEI(EAGH, in reply, stated, that

ed by any of the recent engagements. With refe.
