London, England, 1821-06-23 00:00:00

night. The Quail-square 06ee had essay parishes
to attend to, and mould net with effect be joined with
Marlborough-street. The appointment of the Mary-
le-bone establishmst was only a transfer of the
Shadwell Police ()eye, and no new appointment.—
By this Bill, every office. would for the future have
twelve constables belonging to it, besides the' 30U
patrols.

Mr. BENNET was convinced that if a Cammittee
were appointed to investigate the matter, it could
be shewn, that fewer Police Establishments would be

ruificienL

The Marquess of LONDONDERRY said, the ques-
tion would be better discussed in a Committee next Ses-

sion of Parliament. The clause did not go to make any

new establishment, but to remove an office from one part
of the metropolis to another.—The question whether
fewer offices ought to be allowed, would be the subject
for the consideration of a Committee the nest Session.

Mr. BENNET said, it was advisable to take away
Sbadwell and Queen-square Offices ; but he did not see
there was the least necessity for another Office in Mary-

le-bone. An additional number of Officers at Marlbo-
rough-street would do all the duty required.

_ .
Mr. BATHUILST considered the transfer of the office
for a year unobjectionable.

Mr. DENMAN contended that a new office was unne-
cessary.
Mr. COIIRTENAY said. Magistrates at Marlborough
Street had then more business than they could regularly
discharge. _ _ _

Mr. IVILLIAMS was convinced the Magistrates were
not too numerous.

Mr. BENNET begged it might he understood that
the transfer was to be for one year only.
Mr. DENMAN thought it would be better to remove
the office, by any other means than by an Act of Parlia-
ment.

The ATTORNEY GENERAL said, the only question
was whether Magistrates were to contiaue at Shadwell
where they had nothing. to do, or act in Mary-le-bone,
where they were wanted. There could be no doubt,
advantage would be derived from the removal. if, how-
ever, any inconvenience should arise, it might be re-
tuoyed next year.
The Clause was then agreed to without amendment.
Mr. FIUME expressed a hope that an office would not
be purchased lentil next year.
Mr. CLIVE said, no purchase could be concluded till
the Bill passed.
A conversation ensued on the Claim for regulating
Coffee Shops, which are to be shut after eleven o'clock
at night, and opened at four o'clock in the morning.
On a clause to prevent the blowing of horns to sell
newspapers on Sundays, Christmas-days, ■nd Good Fri-
days, a division took place, when the numbers were—
Ayes, 43—Noes, B—Majority, 33.
The House resumed, and the Report was ordered to be
received on Monday.
Ihe CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER pro-
posed that the House should meet at Two o'clock, as
there would be a Royal Commission.
The Transfer of Stock Bill was read a third time
and passed.
Mr. HUME postponed the motion of which be
had given notice, fur an Address to the Crown re-
specting the Finances of the Country, from Monday to
Wednesday.
Mr. DENMAN thought it desirable that there
should be a full attendance at the discussion of the
motion of his Hon. Friend (Mr. Hume). He thought
as it was not generally known that the House would
meet so early as the Right Hon. Gentleman had pro-
posed, it might be inconvenient that they should meet
at two o'clock.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER had no
intention for his own part of proposing any thing that
would create discussion.
Mr. BERNAL hoped no business of importance
would be brought on this day.
Adjourned at half-past One o'clock this 'Derain.
