CHRONOLOGY, MARRIAGES, DEATHS, ETC. 



CHRONOLOGY. 



October 23. Petition referred by the Common 

 Council of London to the Court of Inquiry, rela- 

 tive to the monopoly and high price of coals. Pe- 

 titioner stated that he possessed propci'ty in a 

 Rail-road in Yorkshire, IB miles from which there 

 was an extensive lead of coals. These coals 

 might be brought to London at little expense, and 

 thereby tend to increase the supply and bring 

 down the price.* 



• Alderman Waithman said, when this Corpor- 

 ation proposed the continuance ol a tax of Gil. per 

 chaldron upon coals, to elTect a great national 

 improvement, the mn^t viident opposition was 

 given to the measure by ceitain illustrious coal- 

 owners in both Houses, and that the grand pretext 

 of this opposition was "sympathy for the poor I" 

 Singular it was, tluit in these Houses which virtu- 

 ally represented a// partiis, none were then to be 

 found to sympathize with the Poor except those 

 Coal-owmrs, and that this sympathy on their 

 ptiits should be so acute, that from the north they 

 sent up agents, and opposed the Bill by Counsel, 

 and had witnessses in daily attendance at an 

 enormous expense. He had seen letters Ircim the 

 north, in which it was stated that the differences 

 which formerly divided these charitable person- 

 ages were now healed ; tli.-il their mnlual iii- 

 tere»t, by wliicti alone such persons could be kept 

 together, had again united them; and that the 

 first consequence was, that the Poor were to be 

 subjected to a new imposition, not of onr six- 

 pence per chaldron for a great public purpose, 

 bnl of ton sixpences per chaldron, producing no 

 less than XIOIJ.OUO, which went into the private 

 purses of these sympathetic patriotic guardians of 

 the Poor!'! 



29. Sessions commenced at the Old Bailey, 

 31. Official documents respecting the appoint- 

 ment of Commissioners to fix the amount of all 

 sums due to English subjects, for injuries sus- 

 tained during the blockade of the River Plate by 

 the Brazilian squadron, received at Lloyd's. 



November 4. Sessions ended at the Old Bailey, 

 when 13 prisoners received sentence of death ; 97 

 ot transportation, and upwards of 80 for various 

 peiinds of imprisonment. 



9. Alderman Crowder sworn into the office of 

 Lord Mayor, upon which occasion the usual fes- 

 tivities (and dinner at Guildhall, at which some of 

 the ministers, attended) were celebrated in the 

 city and suburbs. 



10. Report of the Chamber of Commerce re- 

 ceived from St. John's, Newfoundland, stating the 

 defalcation of the Cod Fishery, in consequence of 

 Free Trade.* 



• The Chamber cannot too strongly impress on 

 the minds of the people, th.it already tlie Nor- 

 wegians have nearly driven !irili-h ti^^h out of the 

 Spimish market ; that they arc uclually Inter- 

 fering, by coinpetilion. with us in I'mtngal; that 

 the constnnption of cd-tish in Italy has snlfei-ed a 

 lamentable diminution williin the past two years ; 

 that in South Anieri<'a onr Itsh 5lcipni''nts no'et 

 with rivals in every port, and tliiit all the foreign 

 markets have been very unfavourable for tlie selc 

 of our fish duriiigtlie past year, and in many iji- 

 stances the results of our shipments have been 

 almost ruinous. The ('hainber, liowever, have thp 

 satisfaction to observe, that the West India coln- 

 iiies continue to take from the islaml ab-^ut the
