A deputation from the Local Relief Committee formed in Limehouse attended to ask for another grant. 'fhe committee consists of 24 vestrymen, and is divided into four committees for a house-to-house visitation iu the parish. The_whole committee meets every evening, after visiting cases during the day, and distribute relief on the recommendation of rate payers and medical men, and on their own know ledge of circumstances. The Limehouse Philan thropic Society distribute the relief at their disposal later in the evening at the Town-hall, and it was the belief of the, deputation that the epidemic would entirely disappear from the district of Limehouse in the course of next week. The committee granted them £lOO and a quantity of arrowroot and other stores, and some clothing. They also granted £25 to St. Jude's, Southwark. necessary sometimes in the day to allow only two minutes between the starting of the trains the usual rule could not be applied ; but here a special ar rangement has been made which is equally applicable to any like case. A signal station has been erected midway between the two passenger stations, and no train may leave either end until the previous one is telegraphed as having passed the signal station. Even should a train from any cause come to a stand after leaving a station there would be little danger of a collision, because owing to the break power provided on the Metropolitan line a train can pull up within a distance about its own length. After the inspection yesterday the party assembled at lun cheon in the Great Western Hotel. Among them were Lord Devon, chairman of the Metropolitan District Company ; Mr. Sheriff, M.P., Mr. Gilpin, M.P., Mr. W. H. Smith, Mr. Pigott, Colonel Talbot, Mr. Worms, Mr. H. Seely, Mr. M. Fenton, traffic manager of the Metropolitan line ; Mr. Burchell, the Messrs. Waring, Mr. Walker, &c. Lord Devon spoke highly of the manner in which the new lines were being constructed ; and the other directors present expressed their concurrence with his lord ship. It is expected that the line from Paddington to Westminster will be opened by the end of next year, but its completion towards the city must de pend in a great measure upon the progress of the Thames Embankment. Up to last evening the total grants made by the committee since the commencement of the fund amounted to £4,550, of which £425 was voted yes terday, besides wine and stores. The number of patients in the cholera wards of the London Uospital has been reduced to 96. The admissions during the 24 hours ending yesterday forenoon were five (two being cases of cholera, three of diarrhoea), the recoveries were nine, and the deaths two. Of those remaining in the hospital, 68 suffer from cholera, 28 from choleraic diarrhoea.

MANSION-HOUSE RELIEF COMMITTEE. Last evening the fund now being raised at the Mansion-house for the relief of poor persons suffer ing from cholera, and their familes, amounted to about £14,500, of which £620 odd had been received during the last two days. Within the last week or ten days considerable quantities of port wine, brandy, arrowroot, corn-flour, bedding, clothing, and other stores and commodities, have been for warded to the Lord Mayor by benevolent persons for distribution among the sick and convalescent. Three different firms of wine merchants—Messrs. Clode and Baker, Messrs. Byass, and Messrs. Robins, of Brighton, have each made the munificent present of a pipe of port wine. Messrs. Morewood and Co. have kindly afforded warehouse room for the wine and stores, and thence they are distributed, in quan tities carefully apportioned by the committee through the_ agency of the local authorities. Yesterday a costly contribution of Liebig's extract of meat for the production of beef-tea was made to the Committee by Messrs. Allen and Hanbury, of Plough-ccurt, Lombard-street. Messrs. Martin, wine merchants, have also made a present of wine. Thus through public and private munificence, and with the co operation of the local authorities, the Mansion house Committee are effecting a great amount of practical good, as they have reason to know, in nourishing and comforting the sick and relieving the distress caused by the epidemic, and are also in this way, while leaving it to those whom it more immediately concerns to deal with the subject of water supply as a predisposing cause, doing much, as they believe, to stamp out the disease itself. At the meeting of the Working Committee yes terday the Lord May or presided ; and there were also present Sir Mordaunt Wells, the Rev. F. G. Blomfield, Dr. A. Clark (Physician to the London Hospital), and Messrs. Maxwell, Ripley, Wade, Fowler, S. Hoare, A. Johnston, and R. Wigram. The LORD MAYO?, on taking the chair, said he wished to invite the attention of the committee to the orphans. Ile had given the subject much con sideration, and his great fear was lest they drifted into what was commonly called a balance. To that he had a great objection. The money had been given to them to be spent among the poor creatures in distress from the disease and its consequences, and it must be spent, and spent promptly, at a time when it was most urgently needed. He suggested, I L i tAter i e t tA 4t prv„,,t, y go lieLOoxidvene a special meet . orphans ; and it was then his intention to propose that £5,000 be set apart for that object. In the event of that proposition being adopted, they would endeavour to obtain statistics as to the number of orphans in the various districts where the distress was most urgent, and, having done that, they would consider how the £5,000 was to be apportioned ; but they must not lose sight of the fact that a large number of these orphans ought to fall on the parish, and such as did not fall on the' parish, and became objects more or less of the public care, were the children with which the committee would have to deal. The disease was, unquestionably, on the de crease, but the distress and misery remained, and he believed the public were prepared give any amount of money that might be wanted to relieve it. The following is the return of deaths from cholera and diarrhoea in London registered on Wednesday, Aug. 22 : Cholera. ... 1 ... Diarrhoea. 2 West districts North districts Central districts...

Yesterday afternoon, the first anniversary meeting of the members of this association was held in the grounds of Sir T. M. Wilson, Old Charlton, and was attended by the most influential electors of the Conservative party, accompanied by the ladies of their families, from the three towns of Greenwich, Deptford, and Woolwich. The bands of the Woolwich Dockyard Volunteer Artillery and the Deptford Dockyard Rifles were present. At three o'clock a meeting was held on the lawn immediately front ing Old Charlton House, the chair being occupied by Sir T. M. Wilson. Mr. Eaktmore, the secretary, read the annual report, which stated th4t the association now comprised 1,200 electors; that a weekly local Conservative news paper had been established, and that the prospects of the association were most encouraging. Mr. Young, of Green wich, who addressed _ the meeting as " brother and sister Cot servatives," moved the adoption of the report. He said the Conservatives had been taunted with stupidity and with opposing all progress. This he emphatically denied. The object of Conservatism was to maintain and advance all that exalted humanity, and there was no improvement or change of a reasonable nature, either social, political, or commercial, that the Conservatives were not anxious to doubt a difficult task to separate the good from the bad, and he certainly could not agree to swamp all the classes of the community by giving a preponderating power to the in dustrial class. The working classes were the most numerous and the least instructed portion of the population, and not withstanding the speeches and proclamations of Mr. Bright and the absurd declamation of Mr. E. Beales, he held that it would bo most dangerous to give them almost exclusive power.. Dr. Carr, of Lee, seconded the adoption of the re port. Mr. P. H. Dyke, M.P. for West Kent, said the pre sence of so many ladies gladdened his heart, and Mr. Mill, M.P., if present, would no doubt bo delighted to see the in terest they took _in political matters, although it would throw a damper upon the member for 'Westminster if he had to canvass the ladies present. After referring to the strong contest between the Liberals and Conservatives, and the success of the latter in 'Vest Kent at the last general election, Mr. Dyke expressed his approval of the steps taken by the late andpresont Government with regard to the cattle plague and the German war. The Reform Bill of the late Government appeared to be like an unfortunate donkey—it had no friends—everybody had a hit at it, and one peculiarity was that those who hit the hardest were not the Conservatives, but those members who sat on the Mi nisterial benches. Ho should, no doubt, be asked at a future time by some of the electors of the county why he voted against the bill—and probably told that he was au enemy to progress and hated reform as a mad dog dreaded water. Ho opposed the bill because it was peculiarly ill adapted to remedy those evils which all admitted to be now existing, and if carried would have destroyed the proper balance between the county and borough representation. Mr. Glad stone made a great flourish of 'trumpets about giving poli tical rights to working men, and at the same time. inserted a clause in the bill to disfranchise that industrious and re spectable class the dockyard voters. The Conservatives were accused of being filled with some undefined dread and horror of the working classes. But ho utterly denied that imputation. It was very observable that at all the declama tory public meetings recently held resolutions were not passed in favour of Mr. Gladstone's bill, but in favour of universal suffrage and the ballot. It was, therefore, clear that if the bill had been carried it was not to have been deemed a settlement of thequestion, but only as a stepping stone to violent and destructive measures, and this had been openly avowed by Mr. Bright in the House of Commons. Ile would gladly see the franchise enlarged, but only on the basis of the constitution. Mr. Dyko concluded by urging unity in the Conservative ranks, as they would have to be engaged soon in another struggle. The report was adopted, and a vote of thanks to the chairman closed the proceedings. The Earl and Countess of Mount-Edgeumbe have arrived at Bowhills, Selkirk, N. 8., on a visit to the Earl and Countess of Palkeith, from the Earl and Countess of Lichfield's seat in Staffordshire. uAnrzEnsinre ps.L.tviiHeoulldorarar_hy'coa,s d in y t se m n en te t ry a , n odr cLlolera Cotci meansb ho o v f behove s h everyone to be e s watchful ymp om oaPingvteaonileshraninvle"uantyehasdainisn'tioritshes, _n a us e_a, , well -known he threatening malady- 11 oi ntment t rubbed diligently and repeatedly upon the pit of the sto mach and over the abdomen exercises the most powerful and salutary effects in arresting these morbid indications of the coming evil, and, aided by appropriate doses of the pills, will secure safety to their employers, whilst the heed less are falling thickly around them. Every person at this cr i t i ca l time should subdue the first t races of disordered ac ti o n by Holloway's regulating and purif • ---- Pug prepara tions. Mr. R. B. WADE said he had gone into the figures, and he thought £5,000 in the rough would provide for 100 orphans; £5O a head would be about the whole cost, but it would be more likely to be £6O. The LORD MAYOR said he only wanted to see the money spent where it was really wanted. He de-• sired, if possible, above all thi ngs, t o avoid falling into the misfortune—for misfortune it was—of allowing, as in the case of the Patriotic Fund and others, the moneys intrusted to them to drift into the hands of a banker in the shape of a balance.. There must, from the accounts laid before them, be many sufferers, and it would be a difficult problem to solve, but solve it they must. Mr. J. A. SMITH, M.P., urged upon the committee the great necessity of establishing temporary homes in the open country, and in places easily accessible by rail, for the treatment of convalescents. He dwelt upon the state of squalor and wretchedness in which thousands of the poor were living in the eastern parts of London as something inconceivable to those who had not witnessed it, and he stated that if the committee were prepared to take the mat ter up the necessary funds would be forthcoming in abundance. A letter addressed to the Lord Mayor by Miss Sellon, from the Temporary Cholera Hos pital in Commercial-street, Whitechapel, was read. The writer stated that observing in the report of the proceedings of the Mansion-house Committee in the Times of yesterday that much stress was laid on the necessity of providing some place for the reception of persons recovering from cholera, she desired to bring under their notice the fact that one of the wards in the hospital there had been devoted to that purpose, and that she is in a position to receive any patients recommended by the medical superintendent of the hospital. A letter addressed to the committee by the Rev. J. Cohen, rector of St. Mary's, Whitcehapel, was read. He stated that their seven lay agents —namely, city missionaries and readers, three Bible-women, and two nurses—were hard at work all day long ministering to the sick. He had employed i n ad d tion four other persons to assist in the work . i Alto gether they had 14 paid agents, besides two clergy men and himself ; about ten active dihstrdict visito isrs, all most sedulously engaged. aily, and help been d tributing over 100 pints of beef.-thtead ing with money, food, creed or regard to anythingB4 c" tw b u t real need.

In that way he did not think it probable that a case had escaped notice or help in his district.

The inspection commenced opposite Westminster Abbey, where the brickwork in the sidewalls arid arches have been completed for a length of 200 ft., and iron girders for nearly half that length are in place. The excavations for the remainder of the line between Tothill-street and Westminster-bridge are being pushed rapidly on in order that it may be completed before the com mencement of the next session of Parliament. The " slums" of Westminster will be very much im proved by the construction of the line. In Broad way a number of dilapidated houses have been pulled down, and many more are " ticketed.' , Here the excavations have been made to the re quired depth for a short distance, but much water enters as the navigators proceed with their work, and it has been found necessary to have a powerful pump constantly in operation. The first good view the party got of any portion of the future tunnel line was when they entered it from Buckingham= row, at the rear of Victoria-street, whence they were enabled to walk through the excavations till they arrived at the Victoria-station, a distance of 1,500 feet. The inspection of this portion of the work enabled one to judge of the difficulties which both engineers and contractors have had to overcome. So great has been the flow of water during the excava tions that engineers have been at work night and day, pumping it out at the rate of 4,000 gallons a minute. Here, too, the line passes under one of the largest sewers in London. This the company had to reconstruct of cast iron, and a huge cylinder 11ft. in height by 14ft. in width, and supported on mas sive girders, forms part of the arch of the tunnel, while it also carries off the sewage of the streets above. Stranger still, not far from this monster iron tube, the roofing of the tunnel will form the foundations for a large brewery. Elliot, Watney, and Co. owned some of the land required by the company at the rear of Victoria-street, and not liking to be driven from their old premises, offered some opposition to excavating and boring in this direction. A settlement was, however, come to, and, in pur suance of agreement, the contracters have spanned a portion of the tunnel with enormous girders, on which a brewery is to be erected. Some of the houses on the north side of Victoria-street are very large and of great height, and the owners were much afraid of the effects of the tunnelling; but though the line has been excavated close up to the rear of those pre mises not a crack has appeared in any part of them. At the end of Victoria-street the new company will have an exchange station with that of the London, Chatham, and Dover Company. Indeed one of the most important features of the undertaking is, that it will either be directly connected or have an ex change station with nearly every one of the lines which now come into London. It is intended by the District Company to build a very large station at the end of Victoria-street, for which purpose the whole of the houses in Shaftesbury-terrace and some of those on Wilton-road have been pulled down. Passing on by Lower Belgrave-place, Pimlico, where a length of 150 feet of arch-covered way is com pleted, the line goes by Coleshill-street to Sloane squafe, where there will be another station, which is already in a forward state. Passing on to Crom well-road, the line continues its course to Glouces ter-road, Brompton, one of the chief points in the united scheme. Here is the south end of a double branch to the West London Railway, the north end l l ikg — httnli'en44saktAi'eail l 644 ll 444 ll 64-1 West London at either of two points according as they want to proceed in a northerly or a southerly direction. For some distance either way from the 'Gloucester-road station there are two separate tun nels, in each of which there will be two lines of rails. On both the junctions with the West Lon don line a temporary railway has been laid down, to Gloucester-road on the south and Kensington on the north ; and the contractors and their party were drawn over it yesterday by a ballast engine. At Earl's Court the contractors have erected two immense brick-kilns, where 50,000,000 bricks are being made by machinery from the clay taken out of the excavations. It is estimated that about 140,000,000 of bricks will be required for the works. At Kensington a very capacious station is in course of erection, as a great traffic is expected to pass to and from the line at this point. From it the work of completing the communications en tirely devolves on the Metropolitan Company, who will have stations at Notting-hill, Bayswater, and directly opposite the Paddington Hotel. There will be communication between this last station and the Great Western line by means of a subter ranean passage, but an extension will be continued on to the Edgeware-road, where it will join on to the existing underground line. At Paddington the inspection ended. Several hours had been occupied in going over the ground, and, though here and there one had to mind his footing or take care of his head, the exploration was on the whole exceed ingly interesting. A passenger passing in a railway carriage through a finished tunnel sees nothing out side ; but yesterday all the party were accommo dated in open waggons or made the passage on foot, sometimes by the light of innumerable candles, sometimes by the more brilliant aid of gas jets. Water pipes, gas mains, sewers, and monster beams of timber presented themselves in all directions overhead, while workmen, numerous as bees in a hive, were excavating, setting bricks, and fixing arches with as much dexterity as if they had served their apprenticeship ,in underground railways. Judging from the results already shown by the working of the Metropolitan line, even in its imper fect state as only a partial system, a traffic such as never has been known on any line is expected to be secured by this circular scheme. The Metropolitan line at present carries annually a number of pas sengers equal to seven times the population of Lon don ; and so short an extension as that from Far ringdon-street to Moorgate-street increased the traffic 50 per cent. But owing to the want of a complete communication between the various parts - of London, the Metropolitan traffic never has been developed by any system of locomotion. In Paris, with a population of about 2,000,000, no fewer than 100,000,000 passengers are carried by the omni buses ; while in London, with its 3,000,000 of in habitants, the number does not exceed 80,000,000. To what is this to be attributed? Doubtless, to the correspondence system which is in operation in the French capital, and which is analogous to the through communication this new railway is in tended to effect. It is expected by the traffic ma nager that at least 200,000,000 passengers will be conveyed over the new line annually even in the first year of its working, and this with perfect safety to the public. When the Metropolitan line was opened, some railway authorities gave it as their opinion that, with a due regard for the lives of the pas sengers, trains could not be run oftener than each quarter of au hour. They are now run at intervals of five minutes over the whole line, and at intervals of two minutes between King's-cross and Farling don-street. It is one -of the advantages of a short line that a more perfect arrangement of signalling can be enforced than would be possible in without an enormous expense o n a long • the Metropolitan Railway the is bloc all k o :Y is in operation.

Though in this country the battle of the gauges was fought to the death, in the sister island it re sulted in the adoption of a medium width, which has been found to answer well, and is generally known as the Irish gauge. The less fierce dispute about the comparative merits of the inner and the outer circles as systems of railway communication between the various points of the metropolis appears to have re sulted in a compromise the advantages of which will be experienced extensively in another year or two. At the present time the Metropolitan Railway, better known as " the Underground," commencing at Bishop's-road, Paddington, and running under the Marylebone-road, and so on to King's-cross, passes by Bagnigge Wells -road to Farringdon-street, and under Old Smithfield to Aldgate and Moorgate streets, thus forming an irregular half-circle within the town. It is now proposed, by extensions at either end of the underground line, and by a new line, to be called the " Metropolitan District Railway," to complete what will form pretty nearly an inner circle, but will also throw outbranches to connect itself with the suburban systems north and south of the Thames —so that when the entire scheme is in working order we shall have something like a combination of the two circles—the inner and the outer—as a thorough system for the metropolis. In a westerly direction the Metropolitan Railway is to be extended through Bayswater and N o tti ng -hill, t o Paddington, or by Kensington and Brornptbn. At both these latter points it will join the Metropolitan District line, which, becoming a continuation o f th e extens i on a t a spot near the Horticultural Society's gardens and Cromwell-road, will pass through Pimlico, along tho worst part of Westminster, in a direction parallel with Victoria-street, under the roadway between Westminster Hospital and the Abbey, through the and by Earl-street to Can- Thames Embankment , non-street, and in that direction to the Tower, where it will connect itself with the e as t ern extens i on o f the existing un d e rground line. Thi s ex t ens i on , commencing from Moorgate-street, will pass by Finsbury-circus, and on through Ald ga t e , an d so round to the point of contact with the Metro politan District line. The Act authorising the con struction of the District Company's works was ob tained in 1864, but the company was not completely organised till February in last year. A special clause was inserted in the Act, requ i r i ng th a t s i x months' notice should be given before the compul sory powers for obtaining land could be exercised, and this, of course, delayed to some extent the ope rations of the engineers and the contractors. But a very considerable portion of th e groun d requ i re d between Westminster and Kensington has been pur chased ; and though little has be en h ear d a b out th e undertaking since it received a Parliamentary sanc tion, 2,00 Q men, 200 horses, and u 8 engines have for ~ 25 CO' e NV s ilver listing c ut of t he i edal ,atcel aybut. of ,div 6 floor ; Liter ~'~ ~ ; 11° ., boti.
