Mr. Sheriff VENSOLVS concurred in the sentiments
expressed by the Worthy Alderman.
A resolution arts then moved, which was seconded
by Mr. S. Dieu", and snanituously passed, to suspend
the 54th Standing Order, which declared all
persons ineligible for civic offioes who have not
been members of the Corporation fur two years, thus
allowing open competition.
CONDUCT or Up. smatter WAITIIIIAN AT TUC INQUIST
ON TUC BODY or It. tiONar.
Mr. Aldirman Unowx, io bringing forward the
atotios of which be had given notice,. disclaimed all
i personal or party feelings. Ile felt it doe to the
Court, that the motion with which lie meant to con-
clude should be submitted to them, and due to the
Worthy Alderman himself, and his friends, that it
should be carried. The Court ha.'. tli,mht proper to
record their thus, to the Worthy Alderman for one
pert of Isis conduct, and it was equally incumbent
upon them to record their opinion of another part of
it. He was perfectly ready to admit that the attend-
ance of the Worthy Alderman at this inquest was
highly honourable to him in his individual rapacity :
but he felt at the saute time the it was a most uncoil;
stitutional proceeding in his capacity of Sheriff.
Sorely the conduct of the Worthy Aiderman at that
inquest could not be jastified, when it was retrembeled
that it was his p6ivince. as Sheriff, to summon the
Jury in the event of suhse 'mutt trial, and to entente
she criminal in ease of conviction.—lt was most trs-
Irstial in the administration of justice that it 01001
' relit only be pure, hat free from tin, thousandth part of
the shadow of a shade of snspicion.—(Citeers.)—Sup-
pose in the affray at linitrhtshrillgtc a Life-s:uardsmatt
ban Imitpened to be killed, and the Colleague of the
Worthy Alderman lead attended in a similar inanntr
on the part of the relations of the deceased, would the
Worthy Alderman or that Gout have set any hounds
to their indignatios at curb eon hint ? No, they
would have emblazoned their opinion on marble, and
e-emrd uheiisiss other ver tour cross roads niet, to re-
m, tit, it sentiments us so one 'mai fit:halal a proceed-
iastft. After some similar o!mervotioos, the Worthy
alkitterman contiatied by toottioe, that it ha referred to
the Committee of tieneral Pu7imses, to inquire into
thai conduct of R. Waithinan. Hot. late one of .he
Shrtig4 of the city, before the imittest on the hotly of
the late It. Hooey, and to report their opinion thereon
to the four:.
A pause took_ plate for some time for a seconder,
isoCAlr. Dorisford, rose to move the previous question;
bet Me. Crorker got up and seconded the motion.
Mr Alderman Warntmaw said, it was a little tan-
talite that Ilse Wo thy Alderman should have sulfe..ol
this sal wet to sle-p for four months, and then have
:roue htit forward at that precise mortment, when it'
was 'lastly to, operate as .s set-olf to the vote of thanks
which the Court bad done Idol (Mr. W.) the honour
to canfor upon hini.--Tise Worthy Alderman here re•
capitulated the circumstances wnich had induced him
to take smart at toe inquest on behalf of the relation,•
of the deceased. It was singular that the %V.wiliv

.THO. LATE Bj.VD.
llow-eraser.—Yesterday an investigation of the
history and wealth of the late Mrs. Bond, wins died
some months since in the Hackney Road in great oh-
. sanity and very ersalthyL cocas en for 7ast4gejlow be-
fore Mr. MINSUULL, the Sitting MigVirete, waif eg
traordioary and peculiar circumstances as follows:—The
deceased net having any relative, nee servant. nor any
person particularly attached to her, the Undertaker e:-
gaged to condnet her funeral employed Mary Wads-
worth, the wife of a tin-plate worker, who had
heels employed to lay out the corpse. It was strongly
inspected that Mrs. Sarah Rend was possessed of
a considerable sum of ineney at the time of her de-
cease, she was supposed to have received a short time
before. None being found on the premises. it was sus-
pected that Mary Wadsworth, who had been employed
to lay out the corpse, hail get with her clothes, which
had been given her, a 591. a *ell!. and three sl. notes, it
being known that the deceased had received notes to
that amount previcies to her death; the suspicion arose
against Mary Wadsworth, from two of the il. notes
being traced, which had been paid to the deceased, into
the possession of Mary W. who frankly admitted
she found them sewed up in the flann.:l petticoat of the
deceased, but denied finding any of the large notes.—
This not being believed, 11. Smith, one of the prinhcipal
Officers. was sent to her yesterday, an brottelit er to
the Otlice. She persisted in the same statement as te
not knowing any thine of the twee notes, hot admitted
finding three Si. notes, althongh two had only beers
' charged to her. One of them she had paid to a grocer's
in liishopsgete street. and two to a broker's in White-
chapel, and these notes she considered her property.
from the circumstance of the clothes, which the de-
ceased had on at the time of her steeds being gives to
her. and the parties who gave then told her that they
wished she might find a gond sum of money in these.
To confront this statement, the parties she to
were sent for, and the investigation was resnined in the
evenine. Smith, the otb.ier, alio brought Nathaniel
Wadsworth, the lansb.anit of Mary Wailsororah, frost
Linietiouse, who was sep.irate front Isis
wife, hut rustling particalar w.s elicited, he strictly
corroborating his wife's statement.
Me. Ashley, the landlord of the ileceased. and Mrs.
Mary Young, a respectable nrighboor, the parties al-
luded to by Mary Wadsworth in the morning, anemic I.
Mr. Ashley stated. that the deceased was p044,11134%1 of
1111.60af. iii the fonds, and had SOM. a-year frivol the
Bank Annuities, and did nut suppose that .Ise 'spotted.
100 f. per annum; her were extremely retired, she
kept no servant, nor did she anoploy any persists to do
any thing for her till oi;lain four or live days of her
d soh, worn she permitted Iris ssrvant as a fsvour to go
into her bed-room to awake her when 111..11i-came
tersely helpless. particularly from lossof sight. She was
supposed to twee dead for t.velve or fusirteen boors
before it was discovered. Ile did not klow,that she was
Melia nate. In answer to O fitte,tion put to hies bt the
Mo.:hors:P, he had heard iter say slue hail no relators,
and that the King or the (hut erionent should have ail bar
priperty. tie positively denied having told Mary Wads-
worth that lie wished she might find money ill lhst clothes
and that if she did it belonged to her.
Mra. Mary Young said, sloe assisted in laying oat the
corpse. She found three farthings in one pocket, mad
2/. ss. in silver in the other; she admitted that she gave
all the clothes of the deceased to M ury %Voiliworth for
her trontsle. considering thit to he customary on seek
occasions ; she denied telling her that she wished she
might hull money in them, and that if she did she was
entitled to it.
Mary Wadsworth was then hrottelit in, and faced both
these witnesses. and persisted in her former btateuient,
which they again denied.
'flue Magistrate told Mary Wadsworth lie should no:
detain her, end requested her to go home and search th •
stays anal the rest of the clothes, and if she found them,
to bring them to the olfice.
