IMPROVEMENT OF TEMPLE-COURT.

Mr. W. EattLE,jun. then rose to .move a third amendment
on the proceedings "of the finance committee; but before he did
so, he expressed a hope that the gallery, which was the subject
of the last division, would be considered es intended for the ac-
conunodation of the children belonging to the church only, and
that others would not be allowed to come and annoy the cuagre-
gation. (Heat, hear.) He wished to make some observations
with respect to a great improvement which was suggested, and
which the finance committee,' following the same parsimonious
policy which marked their predecessors, and which" he had
hoped was at an end, had determined not to make. He
spoke with respect- to an. improvement in Temple-court.
The advantage this town possessed over others, was in its
having a large purse to enable them to make improvements,
without calling upon individuals who, would not do it. He had
observed fifteen carts loading and unloading at Temple court
that inoruiug—a retail wholesale trade, if be might so speak,
was there carried on in sugar, coffee, and other articles, and the
place was ill-adapted fur the extent of business done, and he
belietied, in consequence, several accidents had happened there.
(Mr. Platt.—Two• within six annuls.) Then there must have
been more, for a knew one man had been killed. The sum of
£2,000 or £ was a paltry consideration for a corporation
like that; cll nok at the great improvements that had been
neglected for £2,060 or £3,000; the building in which they were
then sitting had been allowed to stand lobsided, when £2,000 or
£3,000 pounds would have set it right. (Mr. H. Holmes.—
£3OO, sir.) The improvement of neighbourhood to .which
he alluded would give a good strut from Temple-street to Dale-
street, and to Dale-street-it would be a great improvement, be-
cause, at present, its buildings were not in a line. He knew
not, nor cared not, whether his motion was seconded, but he
would wove that "t',.! improvenient in Temple-court be trot
abandoned, but referred for fauna' consideration."
Councillor PLATT seeoudetiwthe motion.
Mr. Alderman ROBINSON supported the motion. He did not
think there was an improvement more wanted in the town.
Mr. Councillor CURRiE then said he was sorry to -oppose
what ring,ht be considered a publiC improvement, but they must
look to where the money was to come from. His friend, the
member for Abercromhy Ward, had said this would improve
Dale-street, he did nut think •they could improve it, (oh!) for"
whatever aunt they might expend they would never make
Dale-street look handsome. With respect to Temple-street, it
was no great thorotiohfare; (oh ! ) to prevent that, North John-
street had been widened. lie.; was of opinion ;too that there
Were many objects of greater importance which demanded their
attention, and he hoped the council would not be led away into
what he could not but cons Itts an unjustifiable expenditure.
Mr. councillor klAut.u, ' ry to hear that from his friend.
Currie, who had always *porter of liberal views.
Mr. Councillor CURRIE B, tie had always opposed that mo-
tion, which had been so often brought forward by Mr. Earle.
Mr.,Couneillor EauLE said that there was a vast number of
warehouses iu Temple-street, coffee-roasting and tobacco
houses—it was,a great place of business, and, as some altera-
tions were now being made, the opportunity would be lost if the
improvements were not now effected. But it was perfectly con-
temptible, for the sake of £2ooonr £3OOO, nut to do away with
a great nuisance.

Mr. Councillor C1711111E.-Apply it to the body in general;
not to the individual.. .

The committee did tint recommend that a fresh van should be
obtained tor-conveying separately the male and female prisoners

They strongly reckon-leaded the division, and as an experiment
recummendeitthat a partition be made in the present van, which

'debt, to which there is not aud..cannot be any possible answer
:On the part of the -parish. . ..
Under these circumstances,.l must require immediate pay-
ment of the sum of £5803 19's.

With respeCt'to the balance of the £12,78025.4d. after this
payment, or. 126976 3S: 4dOliere isno objection to its continuing
to stand over until the question as to the parochial rate is deter-
mined; but; then, there ought to be some proper arrangement
on this subject. At present, the past overseers hir part, and
the present overseers loethe rest,, of this balance, are personally
liable, without, as 1 understand, any express reserve being wade
.for payment. How far this ought to be, I submit, is more for
your consideration than mine.; but on my part, it would be much
more 'desirable that sonic proper reserve should be made, than
the corporatioushould have to call upon official gentlemen, and
that the indemnity of those gentlemen should cause au extra
rate upon the ratepayers of a new year.

. .Mr. (limn is.-sairi, he was sorry to rise so often, but they had
t•deseryed,•
to the proceedings of the Watch Comm T

clerk to Messrs..Lowndes and Robinson, the parish clerks, re-
specting the amount doe from the parish to the corPoration of
1;5803 195., supposing the appeal to end in favour of the parish.
But, supposing the appeal to oo in favour of the corporation,
the sum due would he 1:12,7g
o:2s. 4d, without. •the shadow of
objection against any of the amounts. The Town-clerk had
called the at ttention of the parish clerks to the amount due, and
had offered a very fair condition, namely;that •the halt:nee-in
tionlu.should reinain as it was till this question was tried; but,,
at the same time, from a.sense.of-the public duty imposed upon
him, he had• urged the paymeltl. of the .balance. which was up
amount perfectly undi:zouted.; and he had no doubt, the claret,
wardens and others, who had taken the liabilities ma therneives
worild feel tips strength of theclaim, and Would act accordingly.
The reason he had called the attention of the council to that
subject was,. because he had seen in the tenons of the late
parish-meeting ustatement,.that the chrporatiou waS indet ted

COURT 01, REQUEST'S COMMITTRE.
V.lalie TOWN-CLERK read the following report:—
; • . REPORT.

" That the committee have considered the petition relating to
the Court of .Requests, with the letters accompany►ng the same
referred to them.

" That upon the 'subject of the petition they have been at-
tended by John Quayle, Esq., doctor of medicine, and surgeon,
who sought an interview with them, as evidence on the allege:
iu the petition, of the necessity of change in the constio
tution of that court, was allowed to state his complaints against
the decisions of that court, in cases of his own, a hicb, on his
former application, by way of appeal from the commissioner,
the committee could not by law entertain.

"'That the complaints of this petitioner, upon his own show-
appeared' to the committee to be without any foundation.
whatever. (Hear.) -
" That whether the constitution of the Court of ReqUest could
be improved, and the legal continissioner -with advantage re-
lieved, by the addition of a limited ntimber of burgessess to be
summoned to sit with him as commissioners, or, under Ins asses-
sorship, to act as a jury, is a question which has had the anxious
consideration of the committee, and will continue to have their
best attention; desirable as it is, not only that justice should be
done, but that it should be administered as far as practicable to
the perfect satisfaction of the public.
"'That the committee, have, however, without coming to any.
opinion at present upon this important question, deemed it very
uuadvisable to submit any bill to Parliament on the subject
until greater experience of the working of the constitution un-
der the act of 183 G shall be obtained; and snore especially, as
it is probable that if the bill for. the abolition of improvement
for debt should pass into a law it will become necessary in the
next session to go to Parliament to extend the powers of the
Court of Requests to process of execution beyond the mere
goods of a defendant, so as to reach debts and other effects
comprising, under reasonable limitations, the future property of
the debtor.

" That it may .be proper to state inthe present report that the
inquiries of the committee have produced the following infor-
mation. By the official return prior to the application in 1836,
for the present Court of Requests act, it appeared that the
average number of causes amounting to 40s. and not exceeding
auntially'disposecl of in the superior court of the borough at
various stages at, considerable expense, compared with the
•amounts sought'for, was less than £5OO. By the official return it
• appears that, the jurisdiction of 40s. and.under £5 being opened,
to the Court of Requests by the act of 1836, the superior court
of the borough and other courts still being open to suitors in 1:3
months prior to the Ist of December_ last causes of 40s. and
under £5 to the number of 2528 we; e disposed of by the Court
of Requests."
That report also received the confirmation of the council.
Tea R01101)011 COURT.

• The Towis:-cf.tuK next read his report respecting-this court,_
as follows:

" The town-clerk reports that the period is now arrived for
giving notice of the second reading of the bill on the subject of
the Borough Court, lighting clauses, Observatory, aud Kirkdale
and Everton boundaries. •

"The progress of "the bill for the abolition of imprisonment
for debt does not. enable the town clerk to make any farther re-
port on that subject in connexion with the Borough Court, by
which will be understood not the Court of Requests, but the supe-
rior court of the borough.) But whatever course the bill on the
subject of imprisonment for debt may take, the principal ob-
jects in the Borough Court must remain, viz., of obtai lug Irons
the legislature provisions for preventing vexatious removals
nom the Borough Court to the superior courts, at periods when
the proceedings below have nearly arrived 'at maturity.
" At the present time the consideration by the legislature of
the general subject of local courts, and the piessure of business
at the Liverpool assizes, make it reasonably probable that the
advantages desired for the Borough Court may be Obtained,
and the measures proposed have the decided support of Mr.
Cresswell.

" The usefulness of this court to the public, under the direc-
tion of the assessor, and juries selected from the burgess roll.
coupled with the cheapness of the proceedings, entitles the court
to every attainable improvement.
." This and.the other subjects of the bill—viz., proposed Ob-
servatory, and Everton and Kirkdale Ward_ boundaries-would
not have.li.een deemed sufficient of theinselves4or a bilk The
Observatory clause will require sonic direction from the council
atter the dock proceedings are read."
The MAYOR inquired if it was the pleasure Of, the-countil to
confirm:the reportS
• Mr. Alderman FiyimE moved, that they be printed and cir-
culated: .they were calculated to remove much prejudice Which
existed against the Court of Requests, which was seconded by
Mr. Councillor Mason.

The Me you and‘several other gentlemen suggested, that they
should be given to the 'reporters and printed.
. Mr. Councillor- lihNity LAWRENCE suggested, that they be
offered to the gentlemen of the press fur arose " who..aose to
take them.
As a matter of courtesy we have,. inserted tlient.l" "

DOCK (;0111A111."1:EE PROCEEDINGS.
A inongst other things the promise of the 13runsiVick commit-
tee to bear ha-lf the expellse of' the- erection of 'ilia observatory,
was !escitled.

Mr: CiiulirreiiWr Lasser, said, the courieil had confirmed the
order tot its erection, and the dock committee had been request-
ed to contribute, but whether they did or inn,. the council. was
pledged to eieCt Use obSe'rvatory. He trusted the council would
not rescind that former resolution, havingvoted away £3OOO
tor the mere taking down of the corner of a strket. It had been
intended to h
ave elected atit observatory. on a bilge scale if the
dock committee had stibtieribed;-and'Une worths of Iles town.
He had the other day seen a cousin of his, who sect his chrono-
meter to one'inanufactnrer; who said it ;vas in error tin* min-
utes and n ne -seconds., and - not her, sai} its-error .was 6'6; min-
utes and :i5 seconds; an.d the iifferem:o9lween thellimatliequal
to 67 miles of longitude, which was really very iinportanh.
Mr. EARLE SAid it was qiiite latneifiable that aigiShient•waS
necessary at the present clay to show the neces,ity of a*olisekTi
vatory. There were here IWO estatos, the cori,olitte and the
dock—the one with a revenue of
.E. 200,000 and the other'
£lOO,OOO a year, and yet they required strung solicitation. to
erect and maintaki an observatory in a, great' town like this.
Whiit was money worth except fin what it gave thetn: or was
it only to be looked at in their coffers. He could again only use
the language which he had before used, that it was really con-
temptible. (Laughter.) •

'l4e rrowN,eLhaK, Said, .the, difficulty iu which. he stood. was
this. At the time when it was supposed the Duck, Committee
would contribute, lop had framed a clause in the intended bill;
assuming that they ;weld coutributeequal proportions. Was he
to strike that clause out, and to act on the assumption, that the
council'alone would'provie the neeesSary funds ?
Mr. Councillor PLATT said, he had no doubt if the clause re.
mained the council would he ielieved or much of the expense.
by private subscription, for it would be generally felt to be'of
great importance in a maritime place like Liverpotil.
Mr, Councillor RO RNBY had waited to hear some member
the Dock Committee explain why they had rescinded their re.
solution to subscribe, for he thought there could be no expenui-
[lire of money. so useful to the dock estate and the interests of
navigation. He thought it incumbent on some members of the
Dock Committee to state the reason why they would not bear
some portion of the expense. Whatever benefitted navigation
must benefit the dock estate, and therefore it was mote incum-
bent on then-, to subscribe than on the corporation. It was an
institution. which was very much wanted—it appeared if the
corporation did not undertake to provide it it would not be ob-
tained. He, therefore, for one, would vote that the Town.
clerk be instructed to take measures to enable the,corporation
to ;erect it.

Mr. Alderman EVANS said if his friend Hornby had attend-
ed,tothe circumstances be would not have been surprised that
none of the Dock Committee had risen, for the gentlemen on
the other side had risen so tepidly, like so many flashes of
lightning, that no person on his side could interpose. But, with
regard to Mr. Earle's observation—to the freedom with which
tie was using the word " contemptibfe"—
Mr. EA It LE —Measures, not men, sir. (A laugh.)
Mr.Councillor EVANS.—Yes, he knew; but measures were
so often 'confounded with men, that it might really lead to very
unpleasant occurrences. (A laugh.) For instance, if here-
,titter they happened to come out of gentlemen who were not
quite considered privileged, these things and the example
might lead into what they should all wish to avoid. (A laugh.)
With regard to the large incomes of the corporation and the
dock estate,
they existed Mail, for they were all appropriated by

Mr. Councillor Pt. ATI' rose and said, the rneasute for water-
troughs for cattle had undergone much consideration from him,
and, he it it 8 convinced it would he a measure of great utility
to that useful class of people; he alluded to horses and cattle.
(Laughter.) He thought the expense of their erection would
be but trilling. Mr. Platt proceeded to advocate the erection
of these troughs at the south end of the town, and proposed that
a small toll should be levied on those who used them, which he
said would more than defray their cost. He then proceeded to
"plead" as he said " for those animals (horses and cattle) be-
cause they could not plead for themselves. (Laughter.) They
0w e I ready to like a piece of beef—(" horse beet" and loud
1 )—and all ready to avail themselves of their services
...
iiserved their interest. Any person going to the back
-o swick St., would see there what rows of animals there
wet. ';I--fiue horses in carts, and donkeys—(loud laughter)—and
drivers. (Continued laughter.) They might laugh, but a
drink of water would be.very acceptible atoning them —(" don.
keys and all," "be-ho," and loud laughter.) The expense of
each trough would not exceed £65, and they might he kept up
afterwards for .1:15 per annum each. He hoped therefore that
they would be granted. _ _

Mr. COLIRCiII;r COOPER had great pleasure in seconding the
motion. It would be a great comfort to those animals if it was
adopted. •
Mr. Counbillor JORDAN advocated the measure. He spoke
of the length of time the horses were obliged sometimes to
work without water, and hoped the measure would be granted.
Mr Councillor DUNCAN opposed the motion on principle.
The owners of the horses were well able to provide them drink
401 and food the nselves without applying. to them for it.
Mr. Co --; JORDAN begged to ask it the north end of the
town w . 'a-applied with tanks ? (Mr. Coglau—Yes.)
Then wit e south.
Mr. Coun • lor COGLAN with many flowers of rhetoric, sup-
ported the motion which Mr. Platt had so argumentively put to
the council, and concluded with " hoping and trusting," that
the interests of humanity would induce them to subscribe to
the measure.

Mr. DUNCAN'S amendment was not seconded, and Mr. Plates
motion was consequently carried, that the water troughs be
adopted.

HEMOV AL'-OF THE STAMP-OFFICE.
The.Msvoa stated that he bud received a letter oo this sub-
ject from Mr. Spearman' Which he read as follows :
" Treasury Chambers, 30th April, 1838.

" TO the Mayor of Liverpool."
'rhe MAYOR then said, perhaps they would like it to be re-
ferred back, to the committee, for it was distinctly in opposition
to the understood agreement on whiCh the corporation had ex-
pended so large a sum of money.
The subject was referred back to the Custom-house committee
accordingly.

KING'S COLLAGE.
The MAYOR nexfinformed the council that Mr. Benson had
applied for a nomination to King's College, and he found on
enquiry they had ten nominations—five to the upper and five to
-the lower departments. The corporation having voted £5OO
seine years ago, they became entitled to the nominations; and
he*'ould be glad to know how they would have them appropri-
ated. (Load cries of "By the council.") The Mayor said he
thought, thOy would find some inconvenience attending that
course. His worship afterwards added that the application for
a nomination. fittni Mr. • Benson had led to inquiries un the
subject, and the'following was the reply:—
" King's College,- London,27th April, 1.838.

Mr. Councillor. CoGLAN opposed it on the ground that it

The 111 A von said they were admitted on cheaper term.
Perhaps the best plan would he to refer it to the Education
Committee to make a report ?
Mr. Councillor EvANS asked whether, as the privilege of no-

vAntageous in London, it would be contrary to the dignity of
the council to dispose of their right.

" That fon the Bth of February last several gentlemen, being
desirous to establish an hospiti‘l in thesouthern part of the town,
held a meeting at the Clarendon liomns, when a resolution was
unanimously adopted to the effect that the extension of the
docks, the great increase of the population, and the distance of
the Infirmary, rendered it expedient to establish an hospital at
the south end of the town. _ _ .

"That an appeal was subsequently made to the public for the
means of promoting that desirable object, which they .have the
gratification of stating was most satisfactorily responded to; the
mime tof donations arid subscriptions being L2OOO and upwards.
"'that your memorialists, being of opinion that the Town-
couueil are empowered, under the municipal act, to appropriate
land to charitable purposes, beg respectfully to apply to you
for a portion of land, agreeably to the annexed plan, for the
purpose of erecting a suitable building thereon. The necessity
for this hospital has been very generally acknowledged, and
your memorialists trust its object will powerfully plead with the
council, and induce them to comply with the views and wishes
of your memorialists: the pressing want of such an institution
in that very populous neighbourhood, and the frequent Occur-
rence of casualties requiring the promptest attention, are
grounds which your Memorialists feel fully assured would jus-
tify the Town-council in the opinion of the public ill according
to this request, and would be ever gratefully acknowledged by
your memorialists.
On behalf of the committee,
AMBUOSE LACE, Chairman."

Mr. PLATT, at some length supported the.prayer of the me-
mm ial, urging strongly its necessity in the neighbourhood to
which the memorial referred. He also added that nearly
i::2050. was already subscribed, and if the council complied with
the wishes of the memorialists he doubted not they would be ena-
bled to erect such a building as would be a credit to the town.

by an early resolution of the reform council of this borough,
tha,t publicity shotild be given to alt their ,iloceedings.
• " Your menifirialists having leaned with much regret that
the members of the common council adopted the mode of secret
voting on the 2 tst of February last, cannot avoid declaring
that such a plan is calculated to destroy all responsibility on the
part of the representative, to lessen confidence in men chosen
by the public voice'for the management of a most important

" Respectfully showeth,
"That your memorialists have observed with alarm that the
vote by ballot has been introduced in the proceedings of the
council, on the 21st February of this year.
"That your memorialists believe the adoption of any mode of
recording the votes of the members of the council, which de-
prives the constituency of the means of aseertaining in what
manner each individual councillor diseharges' the duties of a
delegated trust, is attended with great clanger to the continu-
ance of responsible local government.
"That your memorialists are most earnestly desirous that the
Town-council should possess the entire confidence and support
of the liberal majority of the electors of the borough. That
support, they submit, can never be so fully secured as by the
greatest publicity being given to the votes and the opinions of
those whom the constituency have elected.
" Your memorialists, therefore, respectfUlly urge upon the
attention of the council the necessity for passing a resolution to
the effect, that on all future divisions of the council, in which
the mode of obtaining the votes is not prescribed by the legisla-
ture, the voting upon such occasions shall be open to public in-

" Respectfully showeth.
"That your memorialists are deeply impressed with the con-
viction that the greatest publicity which can be given to the
votes and opinions of the representatives in council constitutes
the most effective check to any .improper exercise of an impor-
tant public trust, and forms the be=t preservative against the
evils which time and circumstances have a tendency to produce
in all human institutions.

"That iu common with a great number of the liberal consti-
tuency of the borough, your memorialists have observed With-
alarm the mode of secret voting adopted in the proceedings of
the council on the 21st of February last, upon the occasion of
recommending magistrates for her majesty's new commission.
"That your memorialists have to express their regret that
upon a former occasion, the same mode of obtaining. the votes
of the council as that of which they now complain, was adopted
without observation or protest on their I►art, a circumstance
which they attribute to the novelty of their posit ion with refer-
ence to to the various and important duties which the muni-
cipal reform act called upon them to perform.
" That your memorialists, in the 'Lost respectful but earnest
terms, represent the danger which is likely to result from such
a mode of obtaining the sense of the council, with reference to
its effects in the first instance upo❑ the responsibility of the re=
presentative, and in the second place, its tendency to lower the
character for independence which the council now enjoys in
public estimation.
"That your memorialists firmly believing that while the pro-
tection of the ballot, would be judiciously employed in .render-
ing the exercise of a right inherent in the individual indepen-
dent and uncontrolled, it would, at the same time, have a most
injurious effect when used to shield lions the public the manner
in which their representatives discharge the duties of a delegated
trust.

"Your memorialists, therefore, respectfully call npon the
council to pass a resolution to the effect, that upon all
future occasions in which the council shaßhave to dis-
charge in elective powers, either in its legislative or its
executive capacity, that the open mode of voting shall
in every instance be adopted.

" Liverpool, March 31st, .1838."
Mr. LASSELL then continued. He said as soon as the me-
morial bad been put into his hands, he put a motion on the
books to the effect that the council would pass a resolution that
on all future occrsions they would vote openly; hut probably
if he had had more experience he should have couched it in dif-
ferent language. liethoughtit would he unnecessary to burden
the books with every memorial; he therefore would move " that
the memorial be received, and that it he a standing order in the
council, that on all occasions in which there was a division the
votes should be taken openly." He had been requested to sup-
port the prayer of the memorial, and he agreed with the reform-
ers of Rodney-street Ward, except where they express their
alarm at the vote of the council, for he did not partake in that
alarm. If it had been a predetermined vote there might have
been just cause fur alarm, but it was not so: they merely voted
us -they had done before—erroneous thought it was in a repre-.
seutative body to vote secretly. No one would dispute that it
was the intention of the municipal act to establish entire respon-
sibility. That was a defect of fernier corporations, which were
self-elected, with nobody to call them to account, the public
.only being made aware of their proceedings in consequence of
the communications of some of the more liberal of their body,
for the press was carefully excluded from their deliberations.
It was to remedy this that the municipal act was passed, and
the framers of that act in the first instance intended .that. the
aldermen as well as the councillors should be elected by the peo-
ple ; but it having been subsequently determined to leave their
election to the council, au additional responsibility was cast
upon them, in euabliug them to add largely, to their. number by
self-election. But in giving that power the legislature prevented
them voting secretly in ,the choice of aldermen, by appointing
the manner in which it should he done ; and be eouevived that
every argument that held good with reference to the election of
-aldermen, would hold
loud in respect to every other appoint-
ment which they made; they had a like responsibility in both.
He believed that if any one person in council called for open
voting, it was their duty to take their votes by card; it did
herefore ,seem a strange anomaly that if 63 wished for secret
voting that any one should have it in his power to thwart their
wishes. That might be used as an argument against him, but
he would nevertheless press his motion, that it be a standing
order that all questions should be determined by open voting.
Mr. PLATT seconed the motion.

Mr. Bo',TON supported the motion, and he concurred in the
opinion that no vote ought to be given, that would put them in
a situation to screen themselves. With regard to the occurrence
which had given rise to the meetings flout which the memorials
presented that day had emanated, he believed it bad been the
result. of inadvertency, which he pleaded. If he had foreseen
the dissatisfaction which had arisen in consequence, he for one
would have moved that their names be recorded.
Mr. JAMES LAWitENcE briefly Opposed secret voting.
Mr. Alderman EVANS said, as the council have already re-
ceived the memorials, I have no need to dwell on the number
and respectability of those who have been parties to them. But,
with regard to the resolution which has been offered by Mr.
Lassell, I must altogether dissent from it. I conceive. that it
is quite sufficient that the memorials be read. That the well-
expressed wishes of the people of Liverpool will have due
weight at the proper time, I have no doubt whatever, and 1
conceive that ought to content all parties. We have one of the
memorials mentioning the words of " independence of the
council." Sir, the indepebdence of the council in every respect
ought to be equally dear to the constituency as to ourselves.
This council cannot be lowered, canton be degraded, cannot be
held out to the public as a corporate body under the influence
of fear, without a very great injury upon the constituency itself.
(Hear.) Under these circumstances I greatly regret that Mr.
Lassell—he was not called upon, 1 believe, by the Rodoev-street
memorial to move any resolution whatever, the others have got
it in, and tbere it would have stopped. Mr. Lassen, in his opi-
nions upon the ballot generally, is quite at valiance with what
I believe to be the opinions of the great majority of the refor-
mers of Liverpool. Mr. Lassell is against the ballot in elections
of members for parliament. I believe the reformers are all for
it; therefore, the Rodney-street Ward reformers, nut having
asked him to move a resolution of that sort, I cannot help think-
ing he is going a little beyond what was required of him. But,
Sir, what necessity is there to press iu aid any resolution upon
this now ? Is it tint coercing the council into an acknov.ledg-
went, that it had committed an error—one of a nature that was
almost treated as a crime? Now, Sir, I hitie no feeling what-
ever that we did err at that time, And the evidence of it. was
that there was not one gentleman got up to notice that we were
doing what was wrong. That this matter, which, in itself, is an
absolute mole-hill has been made into a mountain is quite
clear, but for what purpose I know not, at least I wont endea-
vour to account. But I cannot conceive that we can. after re-
ceiving these memorials, come to any resolution of that kind.'
that would be equivalent to the admission, which we have no
right to make, for we were not conscious of it, and I ain not yet
conscious of the impropriety of resorting upon particular occa-
sions to that mode of electing. But I grant that when it is the
wish of the eoustituency, it it is not a principle of a vital nature,
that we ought trust to carry it into practice. It is much better
to act in accordance with the constituency, and on that they
Might to rely, that their memorials wilt not be forgotten, stud •
that they will have their due weight. On that account I con-
fine- myself to recommending to the council that they receive
them with all the respect due, but that they pass no resolution
of this kind. I see not why the constituency is to doubt this
Council—why are we to doubt ourselves—why are we to divest
ourselves of-discretion hereafter? And what would be the use
of it? Were we to make a resolution of this kind, it is oot like
a bye-law which will hold us, which will bind us• it will be
competent. for any body after that to get up and move the old
mode of acting. But f conceive that we cannot, with the sense
of what we owe to ourselves, which we owe to the constituency,
go into any resolution before the occasion comes iu which we
are called to exercise our elective or our reconamendat9ty
powers. It is quite sufficient upon that occasion, and upon
every other, to decide how we are to vote; therefore, I oppose
. all kinds of restrictious—all kinds of limitations on the discre-
tion of the council.

Mr. Conneillor JOHN SMITH said, that he should be doing an
injustice to his own feelings as the representative of an indepen-
dent constituency, if he did not raise his Yoice,on'that occasion,
against what he considered to be an unwarrantable attempt to
control the free exercise, of the opinions of that council. In
what light, he would ask, where they, sitting officially in that
room, to be viewed by the public out of doors? Were they to
be considered as the representatives or simply-as the delegates,
of the people? Were they to be looked upon as mere automa-
tons in the hands of certain parties, to du their bidding upon
every occasion, without being permitted to have even a will or
opinion of their own ? If he thought for a single instant, that
such was the tenure upon which he. held his office, highly as he
might prize the honour of a seat in that council, rather than
Submit to such degrading and humiliating conditions, he would
at once resign it. They were terms which no.independent mind
could tacitly submit to—they were terms which no' independent
constituency ought to caforce. But he hod a very different
opinion of what ought to constitute the character of -a town
councillor. He considered that the public had an undoubted
right to expect that he would at all times further and support, to
the utmost of his power, every measure that might. he deemed
conducive to the general welfare. That he -would advocate as
strict an economy in the expei;,,iiture 'the corporate funds as
might be consistent with the dignity of the council, and compat-
ible with the growing wants and improvements ut the town ; in
fact, that he 'would unitorinly. use his hest endeavours to pro-
mote the interests, the comforts, and the happiness of the peo-
ple—thus much lie would readily admit, the public had a right
to expect at his' baulk—but with regard to the means, the man-
nea, the mere machinery by which these measures were to be
carried into effect, he contended they had no just right to inter-
fere;:these were.mattets which might, safely be left, awl which

,tttt he Sppioved not of the .pi-arOice. of secret
voting either in'iliihro or out of doors. He was a staunch ad-
mirer of that straight-forwatd, manly, john Bull system of
open-voting, which had hitherto distinguished, and which he
hoped and trusted Would limp, continue to distinguish, the cha-
racter of the British people.: r'As he could not, however; bring
his mind to regard the -ittenaorials before. them in any other
point of view, than as an .assumptiun of dictatotial authority
over the proceedings and free deliberations o( the council, he
would oppose the minion .Of Lassell.

Mr. Councillor flarany La vvirmitcs: oPtiosed secret voting,
but contended that the votiegiii question was nut secret, for the
papers were written in the presehreof other gentlemen, and
sonic of them were signed by the'gentleinen voting., who con-
ceived it necessary to do so. if he had u4t signed- his paper
concealment was out of the question; for his handwriting was
known to every attoruey's 'clerk in Liverpool.
Mr. EARLE concurred with what had fallen from Mr; Alder-
man Evans and Mr. Lawrence, and added that he had signed
his voting paper ou the occasion in question.
Mr. CoGLAN did not view the memorialising the council by
their constituents as an attempt to coerce them ; but he agreed
that too much had been made of the matter. He thought that
the great mass of reformers who sent their representatives there.
knew that they bail laboured assiduously, and they ought not to
be too severe on
.a subject on which there was so wide a differ-
ence of opinion. But so long as their constituents felt their
secret vote to be a violation of the principles on which they came
to that council their sentiments ought to be listened to with at-
tention. fie thought they all should agree, in the leading
principles, that whatever their opinions might be; they ought
not to shield them:: Something had been said of John Bull
giving his vote openly, but many there knew, and none so well
as the gentleman who had addressed them, that those votes were
often the result of intimidation and coercion. Ile had made up
his mind as to the necessity of protec:ing the constituency, but
the constituency had a right,to call upon them to vote openly,
that tht4y might knots, how their votes had keen given:i On that
point they were all agreed. Their constitutents, too, bad a
right to express their sentiment§ to them, withoutbeing supposed
to desire to coerce them. Why did they ,Vote privately, and they
all admitted that they ought not to have done so. rf the matter *
were left to himself individually, he should prefer being shielded -
by the ballot—perhaps he should give a more honest vote if left to
his own unfettered feelings,
. because he could vote without of-
fendhrindiriduals or breaking those relations of life, which
they were all anxious to preserve. But as the public had
a right to kuow whether he acted up to the opinions on
which he entered the council—and they had all seen that pub=
lic men had entered the arena of public life who were supposed
to maintain certain principles which they were afterwards
found to have deserted—he spoke of the national senate, for he
hoped there were none there who had abandoned their prin-
cipes—he agreed that voting should be open; for if they
had the protection of the ballot those who deserted their
colours might go on with a series of measures inimical to the
views which their tonstithentS supposed they entertained.
Mr lloestur wished to explain why be should vote against
the motion of Mr. 'Lassf To himself it was a' erfect matter
of _indifference. whether they had the ballot ot not, but ho
thought it unuecessafy to-pas*a resoloi ion, when the intention,
of the council was Understood. Mt: Lasselt, in the course of
his remarks, had stated that if it wete'desired by one member
the voting must be taken openly—(bear, hear)—and if, there-
fore, there-was only one honest man to be found among them it
was sutficient. On those,grounds. and not from any disrespect
to the memorialists, he should vote against the resolution of Mr.
Lassell.

Mr. Cueitie hoped he was not like his fiiind Mr. Coglan,
that he should give a vote more honest with the ballot than with-
out it—perhaps with it be should vtite More comfortably. He
begged, then, to remark in the first instance, that they were
hound to receive with all respect every advice or suggestion;
wheOgerjustified or not, of their constituents, and to the best of
hisrPiver he would act according to their wishes; but be thought
a great deal inure bad been made of that matter than was Be-
necessary. He did not consider hibaself to braille for the vote be
had given ou2lst February, for they had acted so before, when a
similar question was before the council. He was always ready to.
avow his vote,aud he never gave one that he cared putiliely to pro-
claim. It appeared to he understood that in future the wishes of
their constitutents should be complied with, shy then was it necesH
sary to pass that resolution ? He thought they ETistituetits
might be satisfied with knowing their memorials had been re-
ceived. and thaf the vote of which they complained Was, not the
rule but the exception—for it was only the secotid*Vote of the
sort in two years and a half—and it way net likely to be fol-
lowed by any dangerous consequences. With those views-
but at the same time he dissented from the opinion .of the
councillor for West Derby, that there was an attempt at dicta-
tion--(hearfor the memorialists did not wish to control their'
actions, but merely .wished that they should change the mode
of expressing them—but he repeated with 'those views he
thought to pass that resolution was a woi k of supereorogation.
If they were then to make it a standing order, next week, next
Mouth, or next year, it might be rescinded, and, therefore, they
required to he bound by something stronger than a nacre reso-
lution of the council. lie wished, therefore, not to negative
the motion, but, as he considered it unnecessary, he was desi-
rous to get rid of it as delicately as possible, and should move
the previous question, and he trusted their constituents would
be satisfied.

. Mr. BARCLAY seconded Mr. Currie's amendment.
Mr. COOPER expressed his gratification to hear so general an
expression of conserva'ive sentiments in the memorials; he
was for open John Bull voting and now he found all ureehil,
him agreed on that subject, since the holding of the Great
George's ward (Conseivative) meeting, of which, by the by,
he bad never heard'until he entered that.rootin: (Laughter.)
Mr. Woot.t.aitit-tT thought they did not want a standing or-
der to hind theircousistency. •
Mr. Alderman LEATuotti agreed with Mr. Ctiiiie in his views.
Mr. DUNCAN had felt disposed to vote with Mr. I:aSsell, but
after healing Mr. Currie he did lAA think it necessary to pass
. .
Mr. Lassen's resolution.'

Mr. Alderman BULLEY concurred with Mr. Currie.
' Mr. liAmsnEN would support Mr. Lassell's motion.
Mr. JORDAN thought it a bad compliment to the gentlemen
of the press to suppose that anything taking plaCe there would
be secret. .

Mr.. ILAwnoN and Mr. Lic;ti troth exp re sect their tipproval
of open voting; hut Mr. Leigh said he concurred in the obser-
vations cif Mr. Currie.

..•.
The MAYOR would deviate from his usual custom, and
press his opinion on the motion before the council. He would
vote ai.!,,ainst Mr. LittSell's imition., forliedisaPproved of that

them; and keep it steadily itivie*; and, perhaps, in attaining it;
he might nortake the same view as his constituents would, and
if his constituents had 'not cOnlidence iu him the sooner they
got rid of him•tbe better.
Mr. LASSELL replied.
Mr. Councillor JORDAN. recommended Mr. Lassell to with-
draw his motion, which, however, was not complied with.

However, Lord Winchilsea, like a frank hearted gen-
tleman, not prone- to suspect another of duplicity, de-
clared himself satisfied with the answer, such as it was.
His Lordship- did not know at the time, nor did the
public, what Lord Melbourne unquestionably did know
—that this same Turton, branded irredeemably, and ex-
cluded from all decent society, had at the very moment
when Queen Victoria's Minister and daily guest and
companion gave that curious -and characteristic reply,
actually sailed from Portsmouth for Canada in her Ma-
jesty's ship Hastings, of 74 guns, which was placed at
the especial disposal of Lord Durham, fitted up in a su-
perb manner, and at enormous cost, fur his Lordship's
family, his Lordship's suite, and-such other inmates and
associates only as it should please the high and mighty
dictator to admit on board the vessel. Yes, the disgraced
profligate Mr. Turton sailed, by the especial authority
of the Pm4trnment, anti, the especial invitation or per-
mission of Lord Durham, as a member of that noble
Lord's-domestic circle, on board the very man, of-war
from which her own reverend clergyman, selected by the
Crown and paid by the country, for administering Chris-
tian.rites and offices to a crew of between 500 and 600
men, was excluded by the express command of Lord
Purhagu,.4ecause his dictatorship's attendants were so
tWß4e;nus that there was no room for the chaplain !
~The.2,aiscriminating morality, of the noble Lord anti of
the, Ministers, both, as we shall see, be implicated in this
measure, must edify the whole to -proceed.
"Maffers stood until yesterday morning, when
LogWinehnSea having got scent of the facto,. andfipd-
idg .that he 114 d beep ,A,lwffW with on Friday by the
Premier, determined to repeat his questions relative to
Mr. (divorced for-depravity) Turton.

A change since Monday last, from extreme cold to mild
growing weather, accompanied by frequent refreshing rains,
begin already surprisingly to improve the face of the. country,
and to repair the injury previously apparent from the severity
of the season during the usnal period of spring.
The millers in consequence have become less eager purchasers
of Wheat, in which the trade has been rather languid this morn-
ing; influenced, however, by the great diminution of the stocks
remaining here, and no extensive supplies in prospect, holders
still evince a tolerable degree of confidence, and thus, in the
few sales effected to-day, our last quotations have been sustain-
ed. At the same time, Flour of good secondary and third qua-
lities have moved off freely on rather higher terms; and select
marks of superfine Irish, though not in equally brisk demand,
have partially realised 535. per sack.
Malting Barley, owing to the present warm weather, seemed
to meet little inquiry to-day; but Grinding and Distilling
samples, being in moderate request, supported late prices.
Malt, Beans, and Pease, were in slow demand, without any de-
cided change in value.
Oats were also taken off sparingly, but from the limi!ed
supplies at hand, all descriptions maintained the current rates
of Tuesday.—Oatmeal, continuing to command some attention
for investment, several parcels were disposed of for that pur-
pose on the terms last noted, hut not much sold to consumers.

Bonded Wheats upon a renewed inquiry are held at some-
u hat higher prices, and prime red Baltic has obtained Gs. per
701h3., at which, and thereabouts, several thousand quarters have
changed hands.

The motion was negatived on a divison, there being 62 in its
favour, and 97 against it.
Mr. P. THOMPSON moved for a select committee on the busi-
ness of the house, which was agreed to; and he afterward moved
for, and obtained leave, to bring in a bill for the regulation of
the " pilotage" of the united kingdom.
Mr. HOME moved for various returns respecting the Society
for the Propagation of the Gospel, &c.
The SOL ICITOH-GENERA L opposed it on the ground that the
Court of Chancery not only was the proper place to apply to,
but that it had been applied to.
It was negatived by 27 ayes and 56 noes.
Mr. COLQUHOUN, in moving for returns respecting assults on
clergymen in Ireland, enumerated several instances of murder-
ous proceedings towards them, although Lord Mulgrave had
asserted that not one protestant clergyman had been murdered
during his lord lieutenancy. The narrative excited considerable
sensation.—Adjuurned.

Last night accordingly, after a severe and biting.re-
proOf; addressed to LOrd Melbourne, the noble Earl re-
slimed his.inteirogatoriea.
He "asserted What could not be denied—that Mr. Ttirt on
"hid actually sailed for Canada on board the Hastings in
companii-with Lord Durham, and thathis passage must
be paid:Rn. ont of the Wylie money. 7-- -
He then asked-Ist, Whether Mr. Tuttan had'heen
appointed to any , public office under government before
lie, left thii country 1 2d. Whether he went outwith any
prprase, or prospect of obtaining one, after his, arrival in
Canada? 3d. Whether any services which he might
perfortn, either ostensible or confidential, were to be re-)
munerated from the puhlic-ptirse
TO the first question Lord Melbourne answered in the
negative. -To the second also (viz., was Mr. Turton, to-
he promised any offiCe under Goeernment ?) he answered
in the negative. But the third question, " whether he
was •to receive any public money ?" Lord Melbourne
took care not to answer at all.

By a return made to the legislature according to law, by the
inspectors of sole leather, for the city end county of New York
ending 31st December last, the number of sole hides stamped
and passed by them is 388,036, weighing 11,873,250 lbs. price
62d. to 14d. per lb. sterling. Thus it would appear from the
number of hides so inspected for that city and county alone of
the Union, that a greater number are tanned than all the river
plate hides imported for the consumption of the United King-
dom.

DREADFUL EXPLOSION OF A STEAM-ROLLER AT STOCK
PORT.—An explosion of a steam-boiler, attended with mos
disastaous consequences, occurred about half-past four o'clock
yesterday (Friday) afternoon, at the cotton factory of Messrs.t
Lane and Son, near the Higher Hillgate. The uranager of the
factory says—At about 20 past four o'clock I was in the engine
liqse, along with the. engineer, Robert Houlker. We had
stopped fur tea, and I said, " Robert, you had better gait the
engine." He had not started, but was in the act of opening
the valves when the boiler blew up with a dreadful report.
did not at first know what it was, so great was my alarm. The
explosion shook the whole place. •• 1 cried out Robert, what
IS the matter " He said "1 he boiler is bloWn up." The boiler
house had two boilers in it; one in use, andlhe other in course
of repair, four men being employed at the time inside of it.
We went immediately down to the boiler house, and found that
the boiler was relit entirely to pieces, and torn up from its po-
sition. The boiler undar repair was also. torn up, haying the
appearance of having been lifted to some height. It was broken
to pieces, and lay on the ruins as a flattened mass. There was
no roof to the boiler house, and the steam hail entirely evapo-
rated when we entered. The,steini pipe had been blown off the
boiler in use over part -of the factory, three stories in height,
and had fallen near the counting house door on the opposite
side, together with an iron weight of nearly 60lbs; a stone slab,
13 inches by 17, and 21: inches thick, had been blown through
the carding-room window on the second floor. 'the brick work
in which the boiler had been imbedded was lying about the
boiler room. The sufferers by the accident lay in dittereni parts
of the room. These consisted of the four boiler-makers, 'two
firemen, two girls, a buy, and a weaver, who had gone
boiler house to smoke his pipe. The weaver, whose name to
name is
Longbottom, was unfortunately buried in the ruins under the
boiler house, and more than ten minutes elapsed before his
body was discovered, a shocking mangled corpse. He was a
single man, about thirty years of age. The others were all se-
verely scalded. The alarm of the hands employed at the mill,
on hearing the explosion, was very great, especially- of the girls,
many of them attempting to get through the windows, under
au impression that the mill was falling ; and several men on the
second floor leaped out at the window, and some of them are
not expected to survive.—Manchester .
SOUTHAMPTON RA TIRO A O.—The works of this railroad are
making rapid progress. The first twenty-four miles out of
QLondon, being the nearest point on the road to Guildford, will,
it is said, be open to the public on the 14th of May, and up-
wards of forty miles will be completed early in the autumn.
ALTERATION IN LONDON COACHES.—DIC extraordinary
facilities presented by the London and Birmingham railway
will cause most of the coaches front the north to run to Denbigh
Hall, or some other point on the line of railway, and there
transfer their passengers, &c. to the railway trains, instead or
running through to London. Already the Commercial and the
Times, two Nottingham coaches, are doing this. Within a
fortnight, the Rope will cease to run from Halifax to London,
and will be a coach from Sheffield only, going up and coming
down in a day, and joining the railway at Denbigh Hall. The:
Leeds Erpresv is expected to follow the example; It will then
leave Leeds about half-past ten a. in. reach Denbigh Halt (or
Roade, another station within a few miles of Northampton, not
yet finished), at half pas' four the next morning, and the pa
half-past se-vest:
scogers will be in London a bout seven or
o'clock.—.Vorgi Derbyshire Chronicle,

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, ArnlL 30.

The supply of Beasts at market to-day has been rather large, and
the quality 'has been generally pretty good, but we cannot note any
alteration in the prices from our last week's quotations, holders not
being willing to give way, and buyers rather numerous. The market,
notwithstanding the very unfavourable weather, has been principally
cleared up. We have also hail a tolerable good supply of Sheep, and
in consequence of many country buyers being present, an advance of
prices has been obtained. Good Beef sold at from 5W to 61(1; inferior
5(1, but principally at the antecedent prices. The first quality Wether
Mutton maw he quoted at 7til ; middling and inferior quality varying
from 6,1 to 'M per lb. hut chiefly at the latter price. Number of Cattle
at market :—Beasts 1169, Sheep 2945.

SMITHFIELD MARKET, LONDON, APRIL 30.
There was, for the time of year, a large supply ,
of Beasts _offering in
our market this morning, the general quality of which was quite as
prime as could he expected. - Beef fully 2d per Slbs lower than on this
day se'nnight, and even at this reduction the whole of the Beasts were
not disposed of. Although the supply of. Sheep was somewhat less
than that shown here on Monday last, no improvement was apparent
on the demand, and the prices were barely supported. Prime small
Lamb.; commanded a steady sale, at fully late rates. The trade with
Calves (-the supply of which was limited) was heavy, at barely, but at
nothing quotable beneath, the prices noted on last market day,
