TOWN-COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS.

A special meeting of the town-council was called for Wed-
nesday morning, to take into consideration the report of the
Finance Committee relative to the proposed plan of erecting
warehouses upon the dock quays.
The MAYOR stated the object of the meeting, and then
went on to observe that the report of the Finance Committee
was a very voluminous document, extending to 200 octavo
pages, and it was therefore thought that it would be inexpe-
dient to have it read to the assembled council. The printing
of the report, too, was not yet completed, but it would be
finished, he understood, in a day or two. Mr. Currie, the
chairman of the Finance Committee, would lay before the
council a proposition as to how they should act under the
circumstances.

Mr. CURRIE said, that the committee were desirous that
the consideration of the report should not be gone into until
the council had had an opportunity of fully examining it.
The report, which the committee had decided upon having
printed, and a copy of which was to be pMced in the hands of
every member, would be ready for delivery on Friday
morning ; and the final report of the committee, which was to
embody their opinion upon their evidence, would be read on
Monday morning. Under these circumstances, he should
more that the consideration of the subject be postponed until
Wednesday next, (the regular monthly council-day,) if there
should then be time ; if not, perhaps the council would decide
to take it upon the following day. By adopting this propo-
sition, the council would have time to read and examine the
report, as well as the decision of the committee, the latter of
which documents would be in their possession two days before
the meeting. Mr. Currie then moved the following resolution :

FINANCE COMMITTEE.-DOCKS, WAREHOUSES.
Course of proceeding at the Council, 27th February, 1839.
For the chairman to explain,-
I.—That the committee have determined upon presenting
a first report, which will comprise all the information arid
evidence taken, and, pursuant to the direction of the council,
recorded by them; embracing what would be equal to about
200 printed octavo pages.
2.—That it is proposed by the committee that the report
shall, for the convenience of the council, be delivered to the
members printed.
3.—That to save time in effecting this object, the Finance
Committee have ventured to order the printing, which has
now been in progress since Friday last, and will be complete
by to-morrow evening.
4.—That the committee have deemed it advisable to make
the opinion and recommendation required from them by the
council the subject of a separate report ; in which determina-
don the committee have been guided by a wish to give des-
patch to the publication of the information and evidence, and
to obtain for themselves the benefit of a revision of the case
in print, before they finally conclude upon their opinions and
recommendation.
s.—That they now propose that the heads only of their
first report shall be read short by the town-clerk, and that a
copy of it shall be placed, in the hands of each member on
Friday morning, by the post.
6.—That they shall have special leave from the council to
print their second report, which will contain their opinion
and recommendation ; and to place a copy of it in the hands
of each member as soon as practicable, the formal presenta-
tion to the council remaining for the next council.

7.—That thus proceeding, they calculate not only upon
every member having the first report by Friday morning, but
on every member being in possession of the whole case, viz.,
the first and second reports, by Monday morning.
And upon this plan, they propose, that after the first report
is read short, as proposed, the council shall adjoiirn this
matter to—
The MAYOR said—you have heard the suggestion of the
chairman of the Finance Committee ; what is your 'pleasure
upon it ? Perhaps, however, the town-clerk had better read
the heads of the report first ?
Mr. MELLOR did not see any use in ,reading the heads of
the report, as the whole.of the document was shortly
,to be
put into their hands.
Mr. PLATT observed that, as they were assembled,' he
hoped that the Town-clerk would read the heads of the re-
port.
The TOWN-CLERK said that to do so would not occupy
above four or five minutes.
The heads of, the report were then read by the TOWN-
CLERK, to whom we are indebted for the following brief
outline

dock quays."

[The letter is then copied, and the statement added; in the
appendix.]
. .

That the Finance Committee, with reference to that part of
the case of the Association of Land and Warehouse Owners,

London, with regard to the number of vessels found in the
docks there, had requested a report from Mr. Clint and Mr.
Falcon. That this report is added in the appendix.
That the Finance Committee had (in the first report) re-
port the whole of the information obtained by them, and

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 26.

The arrivals of every kind of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal, have
been more moderate since Tuesday last, but, with previous imports,
have exceeded the demand, which, considering the improvement in
the London and Yorkshire markets of the past week, has been more
limited than anticipated, and at about the prices of that day, ex-
cepting for hard foreign Wheat, of which a cargo is reported to have
changed hands at 7s 6d per 701bs.

The only alteration in the duties on Grain from Foreign ports
this week is an increase of Is 6d per quarter on Beans and Peas,
and we can note no transactions in bonded Grain.

The i supplies of Foreign Wheat have been considerably increased
by arrivals yesterday ; and at this day's market, which was but
thinly attended by town dealers (owing in some degree to a Steeple
Chase in the neighbourhood,) there being an advance of 2s to as per
quarter on Wheat in London yesterday, and higher prices demanded
in consequence here, sales to a fair extent were made to country
, calers of fine qualities at an advance of Id to 2d per 701bs. In other
articles no alteration can be noted, except Oatmeal, on which an
auvance or 6d. to is per 24elba ~a aa obtained.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 27.
For our market this morning there was a very., small supply of
every description of British grain, but we had a tillr fresh arrival of
Wheat from abroad. Owing, however, to the thin attendance of
purchasers, there was very little business transacted, and the sup-
plies proved more than equal to the demand. The Wheat trade, in-
deed, was very languid, but the few sales which have been effected
fully realised Monday's quotations. Fine Malting Barley met a dull
sale at the advance noticed by us in the beginning of the week, and
grinding and distilling sorts, though in slow request, maintained
their former value. The Oat trade must again be reported dull, and
in cases where vessels were coming on demurrage (of which there
were many) and where the Oats were getting out of condition,
factors, in order to effect a clearance, were obliged to submit to a
reduction of 6d per qr. on the prices of Monday last. In Beans and
Peas there was scarcely anything doing, and prices remain nominally
the same as before.

FROM THE LONDON PRICES CURRENT,
FEBRUARY 26.

SUGAR.—This afternoon, the advanced rates of last week were
fully supported, and in some instances they were 6d higher ; there
was an animated demand principally from the grocers. The private
purchases amounting to 1000 'Mids. and tees.
FOREIGN.—The transactions continue limited in all descriptions ;
but importers demand full prices for Havana and Brazil. 140 chests
Bahia at auction were nearly all bought in.
MOLASSES.—Prices remain firm for West India, but there has not
been much demand ; and 400 puns. Antigua at auction were prin-
cipally sold, good quality at 31s per cwt.
COFFEE.—The home trade have purchased freely of all clean de-
scriptions of British Plantation; unclean qualities have also sold to
a fair extent, and an advance on previous rates of Is 6d to as has
been established upon all descriptions.
TALL° w.—There having been some arrivals since our last,
principally from France, has operated against the demand, and the
transactions in P.Y. Candle on the spot have been extremely limited.
RUM, BRANDY AND HOLLANDS.—In Jamaica Rum the pur-
chases have been confined to 100 puns. 32 per cent over at 5s 2d;
holders having submitted to a reduction of idillto id for Lee-
wards, has occasioned good demand. For Brandy there has been a
fair demand, principally for exportation, and late prices have been
fully supported. Geneva has been in good request at 2s 4d to 2s 5d
British Corn Spirits continue in steady demand at late rates.
