Mr. TITE defended himself from an attack made on him by Mr. Roche, and said that if he had en forced the bill with the opposition it would h;lve been lost, and no part of a really good scheme would be secured to the public, as the whole would have been thrown over for the session, and perhaps lost for ever. On reference to Mr. Borde's Report, it will be seen that when the various improvements which have been sug gested have been completed, and the Catalan property fully developed, it is estimated to yield a gross profit of upwards of cent. per cent, and this within a period of three years, although the estimates have been based on the more extended period of five years, and that when the Fort St. Nicholas is removed, and the new port completed, this profit will be trebled.

This has caused vi e .olition of large blocks of houses, densely occupied, (q u ell circumstance, together with the previous deficiency ' el lso accommodation, renders the ,construction of new jldings absolutely necessary for commercial and residen of bP'Ai arPoses, and causes an eager demand for vacant plots ding land. / JOLIETTE PROPERTY ACQUIRED.

Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager, &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, refusedadmitta,nce, andhave to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far a s th e d ona ti ons obt a i ne d f or th e pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome, and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will be offered in your behalf.

Mr. FREEMAN brought up a report from the Main-Drainage Committee, recommending that Mr. Francis Evelyn Houghton be appointed, during the pleasure of the board, as superintendent of the Crossness Pumping Station, at a salary of £3OO a year, with free allowance of coal,-gas, and-water. The committee also recommended that those men mho would be permanently located at the Cross ness Pumping Station should have an allowance of gas, coal, and water for the use of themselves and families. The CHAIRMAN suggested that the chief engineer (Mr. W. Bazalgette), should report to the board as to the amount of spare land at the station, with a view of a division of it amongst the workmen, to be appropriated to growing vegetables, which would be of great benefit to them, and it would at the same time be a source of healthy recreation. He stated that as these workmen had upwards of a hundred children, it was the duty of the board, in such an isolated spot, to provide them with a place where they could be educated, or they would be left necessarily without any education whatever. Mr. ROCHE opposed this latter suggestion, urging that it would be a dangerous step for the board to take in interfering in religious education in any class whatever, for if they once undertook to pro vide education of one denomination, there would be an immediate claim on the part of the Roman Ca tholics and Dissenters, which would lead to feelings of dissension if their demands were not complied with. After some discussion, the suggestions were em bodied in a motion and referred to a committee. STREETS COMMITTEE. A report was brought up from this committee, re commending that Mr. Francis Muir be appointed, during the pleasure of the board, as third-class clerk in the clerks' department, at a commencing salary of £lOO per annum; also that Mr. Thomas Bell be appointed, during the pleasure of the board, as third-class clerk in the clerks' department, at a salary of £lOO per annum. FINANCE COIIIIITTEE. The report from this committee recommended that several sums, amounting in the whole to £25,184 11. s. 4d., should be paid. HOUSELESS POOR. This committee also recommended that the sums of £B6B 9s. 4d. and £75 11s. 10d., expended under the Houseless Poor Act by the Boards of Guardians of St. George, Hanover-square, and St. Giles and St. George, Bloomsbury, respectively, be paid them. THE RAILWAY UNDER THE NORTHERN THAMES EMBANKMENT. In answer to a question from Mr. Carpmael, the Chief Engineer said the plans for the railway in the Northern Thames Embankment were nearly ready, and would in a very short time be laid be fore the board for its approval. THAMES EMBANKMENT. • The Engineer brought up his usual monthly re port on the progress and cost of Thames Embank ment works, &c. It stated that the works completed on that portion between Westminster and Waterloo bridges amounted to 1,386 feet of the low level sewer, 1,080 feet of the subway, 284 feet of the flushing sewer, and 1,604 feet of the small drains, &c., intercepting sewer ; 3,485 feet in length of timber and iron ; the caisson clams were either com pleted or in various stages of progress. About 409,000 cubic yards of material had been filled in behind the wall and under the embankment. The approximate cost of works done and materials on the ground and plant amounted to £273,273. - T TT NTr. ABBEY MILLS PUMPING STATION. Th e wharf wall next the Channelsea River was com pleted for a length of 141 feet, to a height of three feet above Trinity high-water mark,: and the value of the work done amounted to £17,928. THAMES EMBANKMENT SOUTH SIDE. About 1,600 feet run of. the dam and 1,800 feet of the stage piling were completed, for the construc tion of which 170,700 cubic feet of timber, 94 tons of iron, and 4,000 cubic yards of clay puddle had been used; and 97,000 cubic feet of timber was on the ground ready for use in the preliminary work, the estimated cost of which was £24,000. THAMES EMBANKMENT. That portion between Waterloo-bridge and the Temple-gardens had 1,295 feet of the low level sewer completed, 2,387 feet of the flushing and small drains, intercepting sewers, 660 feet of the subway, and 1,004 rods of brickwork ; and of the The SOLICITOR read a letter from the contractors for the removal of- dung, stating their inability to complete their contracts in consequence of the ma gistrates of Essex refusing to allow the dung to be brought into their coanty, and they believed that tho authorities of Surrey would follow the same course; the effect of which would be to accumulate a large quantity of dung in the metropolis, which would be detrimental to the public health. After a few remarks from the CHAInmAN, it was arranged that a deputation from the board should wait upon Sir George Grey at an early period with reference to such orders, and the immediate removal, of such dung and refuse. After some routine proceedings the board ad- journed.. The Water Supply of the Metropolis. The water which is supplied to London contains a very large quantity of organic and inorganic sub stances; the sources whence the supply is obtained are more or less polluted by sewage, and conse quently rendered unfit for human consumption. All that the water companies can do in the way of :filtering the supply is ineffectual to purify it, and if we would prevent the spread of disease it is absolutely necessary that some further steps should be taken. Every householder has it in his power to provide a filtering apparatus,_ but experience has shown that the slowness and uncertainty of their ac tion are such as to prevent their being exclusively relied upon. Added to this there are many practical difficulties in the way of supplying the filters, and irregularity in this respect defeats the very object for which they are provided. In this state of things a water-purifying company steps in most oppor tunely, and by providing a filter so constructed as to be fitted to the cisterns whence the daily house hold supply is drawn has made a step in advancg which requires to be only more generally known in order to secure a supply of pure water. The filter ing apparatus which the London and General Water Purifying Company supply is so constructed as to act upon the soluble impurities as well as those held in mechanical suspension ; it is composed of mate rials that do not give any taint or smell to the water passing through it ; its action requires no attention on the part of servants ; it retains its purifyingqua lities for a very long period ; and not the least im portant feature is that its cost is so small as to bring it within the reach of all classes. A meeting of the company was held on Wednes day, when Lord In gestre, the chairman of the com pany, stated that they had some trouble in inducing ' the Government to adopt their filter, but had at last been successful in their efforts, having already placed one in 'a hosialtal, and were now about to fit them up in the barracks. The confi dence of Government was of so much importance that he Book the earliest opportunity of informing the shareholders of their success. The high testi mony borne by several leading medical authorities, such as Dr. Letheby, Dr. E. Smith, Dr. Birch, Mr. H. J. Johnson, and numerous private individuals, whose names would be found in the report, would show the public the importance of the new principle. The advantages of well - filtered water were so well known that he would not dwell upon them. He (the chairman) had used one of the company's filters for some time past, and had found it to answer admirably, and he might also say that it I had never been necessary to have it repaired in any way since it had been in his posses sion. Water which previously he was only able to use for the purposes of washing had now become th s oroughly drinkable. The directors thought it advisable, in the present state of the company's affaii's, not to accept any remuneration for their services. But he thought the.prospects of the com pany were such that they would not have long to wait for their fees. He should be happy to answer any questions or bear anything that any shareholder had to say. Dr. Little said, as a member of the medical pro fession, he might be allowed to say a few words on the subject of the filter. He thought anything more striking as to the merits of this filter could not be found than the fact that one-eighth of the whole of the filters parted with had been supplied to leading members of the medical profession. (Hear.) It has been found that the only medium to remove organic impurities in water was animal or vegetable charcoal, but the former alone would remove metallic impurities ; and although it was by far the most expensive, they had not hesitated to use it. All other existing filters were merely mechanical to remove the grosser impurities, but the new system removed the impurities more intimately mixed up with the water. Arrangements, as the chairman 'had told them, had been made to supply the Go vernment with their filters, and he thought that the request of the Government would materially affect the interests of the company, for it was certain that they would not have taken that step un f le o ss in influ encedheir medical authorities. only desirous of point ing by very strong representations_ r ➢lr.
