of which the Court was sufficiently limier, had pre-

INOND •11tRIIIRS. TAIII 1..
Mr. Dist'', brought up the Report of the ('ommittee
appointed to investigate the state of the Sword Bearers'
Table, and to consider the oropriety of its continuance
or abolition. The Report recommended that the daily
dinners given at the Mansion Roam should be discon-
tinued, upon a remuneration being made to the new
bey of City Officers, who had purchased their thus-
Boas, %Id with them the right of feasting at the ex-
pense of the city.
Mr. !Issas said, that there were others who had net
purchased their situations, who had a bight to be ee.
unmerited for the Jolialsidch 'hay sastala bf
the abolition of the Sword Bearers' T.• 100. The Re-
port recommended, that the dinners given on state
days should be discontinued.

lung discussion took place upon this lubject. and
it was ultimately moved that the Report ofw Commit-
tee made on the 29th of April, 1819, recommending
the abolition of the Sword Bearers' Table, ;ad various
officers connected with it, should he referred to the
present Committee to act upon, and to treat with those
who biold the various offices for their abolitibile.

PIEDITIOUS PLAILARDS.

Mr. FAVELL rose to bring forward his motion, that
the Court should recommend the Magistrate of the
City to offer a reward for the apprehension of Frank-
Ili and others who stood charged with having posted
I ammatory and treasonable placards in various parts
of the City. Mr. Fare!l said, he corulti sot conceive
that any difference of opinion could occur upon this
head, as all must agree as to the nature and tendency
of such placard's, anti must reprobate them. When
the late lord Playor told the citizens assembled in
'Common Council, that there was a plot to set the
City en fire, and to murder them all, he (Mr raven)
had no doubt hut that the same wretches, if not the
same, of the same stamp as those who bad been de-
tected in manufacturing these placards, had doubtless
givea to his Lordship all that alarming information.
These kinds of alarms were not only crimival, from
the uneasiness which they excited amongst the peace-
able part of the community, and the suspicion and
discredit which they brought upon honest men, but
they were particularly injurious, from the great ex-
pense which they put the City to en account of the
eausher of special coastables which they occasioned
to be sworn in, and the preparations for 'edifies,
when there was no occasion for them. The speabet
proceeded to deprecate anonymous placards or hills of
every description, which ought to be discountentioced.
John Dull, however, probably from tong custom.
Deemed to hare acquired a license for these sort of
productions during elections, when they were deno-
mistated election squib's. The speaker then represented
the misrepresestation and odium which had bee* east
upon persons advocating liberal opinions by placards
of the description in question. lbe tiorowasteet had
set the 'sample by offering a reward of 2001. for the
apprehession of Franklin and others, and retook,
melded that it should be followed by the Magistostes
of the city.
Mr. OLDNAK asked the Lord Mayor whether the
Cosset of Alderman had yet taken soy mestere@ upoor
the subject ?
The Lord illiyou said, that the. Court of .41derolea
hod taken the subject into their cousideratioa. but that
they had thought the reward of 1001. offered by the
Ow,Wrililseeti was a sunicieat reward for the purposes
of potions justice. mod that say further sum was anew
iissory. They had, however, directed the City Soli-
citor Or to lireatoktii for the offeares committed
by Mei rstshowtity. at the 'spews of the City. and
apes that irrestecusioult true bill had lowa found by'
the Lwadesrented Ail, tithe last Old bailey Sas-

.to withdraw his motion, and

Mr. OLousM saw no reason fot withdrawing the
erfileal motion. He thought that it eight to be
ag reed to, end that It ought to he Placed-upon the mi-
antes as a precedent, and mark of the opinion of the
Cart upon this subject. The system of anonymous
*cards was a system pf stabbing in the dark, repug-
nant to the manly character of an Negilsispes, sot
which, be hoped, to see put a step to altogether, eve*
at elections.
The LORD 51•von brought before the Court the
placard printed by Mr. Stokes, of Lonsbord.eteeet, in-
viting a general illumination. His Lewdship remarked
on the tendency which the placard had to excite a
breach of the peace in the city, and said, that rinks,
Mr. Stokes gave up the author, or the person who ha/
employed him to print it, he should make use of that
power with which the law invested him, and fine Mr.
Stohea 40/.
After some further discussion, the original motion
was carried.

Mr. Alderman Roviiwit.t. in his place, returned his
acknowlmlgusents for the unsuiusous •ote of thanks
of the last Court, fur the in in which be bad
tlisebarged Lis important duties of hie late office of
Sheriff.

A considerable number of petitions for leases and
otherwise were presented, and referred for examination.
The Committee appointed to consider the present
state of the London Workhouse, presented a Report
on their having enquired into the same, sail recom-
mending some measure to be adopted fu► putting it,
upon a more useful and beuetical condition, which
was agreed to, and referred back to be carried into
execution.

The Watch Act was passed for the year ensuing.
The Court agreed with a Report from the Navi-
gation Committee for preventing alienations of the
City Watertnen's places in future.
