Mr. FEW then moved an amendment in favour of an outfall being made at a point on the Surrey side, west ward of Erith. Mr. COLLINSON seconded the amendment. Mr. 11. L. TAYLOR, in supprting it, strongly depre cated the delay that would be occasioned by referring the sewage question again to the engineer, who had some time ago distinctly stated what was the plan which he considered to be the best. He apprehended that the dilatoriness of the beard on the sewage question would prove fatal to the existence of the board. He imputed the opposition to the engineer's reports to .thatigentle .man's determined enemies in the board. On a division Mr. Few's amendment was. Nit .by 9 to 18. It was resolved, by 6 to 16, "that the .wholeof the se wage question should be referred back to the'engineer." Mr. NIOHOLAY presented a memorial from Mr.: J. R.

The high range of temperature which has prevailed during the last fortnight has bad a somewhat unfavour able effect on the public health. The number of deaths registered in London in the week ending Saturday, August 9, was 1,232, which exceeds that of the week immediately preceding by 207, though it falls short by 96 deaths of the corresponding average of the last te❑ years. - Summer cholera, infantile cholera, and choleraic diar. rhcea proved fatal to 28 persons ; of this number 21 were children under the age of 10 years. Diarrhcea, pre vailed to some extent, and the deaths from this disease, which were 125 in the previous week, advanced to 211. of this number 187 were infants under 2 yearn of age ; 10 were 2 years old, and under 15 years; and 14 were 20 years of age and upwards. In the zymotic class of diseases the other deaths were 7, ascribed to small-pox, 34 to measles, 35 to scarlatina, 36 to hooping-cough, and 54 to typhus. The aggregate number of deaths in this class was 405 ; namely, 206 on the north side of the Thames, and 109 in the districts on the south side of the river. Of the 1,232 deaths, 611 were those of males and 621 of females. The deaths of children under the age of one year amounted to 417, or about 34 per cent, of the total mortality. 54 persons (an unusual number) of 80 years of age and upwards died during the week ; of this num ber 4 females attained the advanced ages of 90, 91, 93, and 91 years, and a carpenter who died at Mile-end New Town, had reached his 96th birthday. Last week the births of 782 boys atld 803 girls, in all 1,585 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1846-55 the average number was 1,423. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.860 in. ; during the first five days the sky was generally cloudless, and the thermometer in the sun ranged from 105 deg. to 111 deg. Slit,, , tit showers fell on Friday evening; and on Saturday rain fell heavily during the morning. Elec tricity was positive with strong and moderate tension. The air for the greater part of the week was calm and dry, with a mean temperature of 66.1 deg., which was 1.5 deg. below the week preceding, but 4.1 deg. above the average of weeks for the last 38 years, and if com pared with the corresponding week of last year, the pre- sent summer heat shows an excess of 5 deg. On Sunday, Aug. 3, the mean temperature was no less than 10.3 above the average. MORTALITY IN THE METROPOLIS NUMBER OF DEATHS FROM ALL CAUSES REGISTERED IN THE WEEK ENDING SATURDAY, AUG. 9.

The screw steam-ship Royal Charter has arrived with advices from IVlelbourne to the 25th of May. She brought 181,000 ounces of gokl, and 10,000 sovereigns on freight, besides a large amount of gold and jewellery in the hands of passengers, of whom "there are 326. The Royal Charter left the Heads on the 26th of May. For the 30 days succeeding she experienced strong easterly winds, and rounded Cape Horn under steam on the 33d day out. During the re mainder of the passage baffling headwinds prevailed. In lat. 59 S., long. 90 W., she fell in with several icebergs. The Walmer Castle, for London left Melb ourne on the 17th of May. Th e Kent was intended to be despatched for London on the sth of June, and the Joseph Jarrett, for Liverpool, on the 10th. Our advices by this arrival record no political or general news of importance. Tile reaction against thefeverish excitement of the gold mania having nearly terminated, the resources of the colony of Victoria were coming into full play, and the inhabitants were looking forward to a career of unexatnpled prosperity. The, local Government hadtaken the subject of railways in hand, with the promise of pursuing the object with zeal and energy. Under the auspices of the Governor-General, Melbourne and Geelong would soon be connected by railway, and a line had been traced out from Melbourne, through the goldfields, to the river Murray. The Government had a balance of 700,000/. to 800,000/. to their credit at the banks. In trade and commerce the absence of all specu lation and excitement had become an established feature. Business generally was good. The fol lowing is a comparative statement of the imports and exports for the first quarter of 1855 and that of the current year : Imports first quarter 1855, 2,808,171/. ; 1856, 2,228,8731. Exports first quarter 1855, 2,997,157/. ; 1856, 4,492,6601. The rate of interest for money was quoted at 8 to 10 per cent., but few transactions had taken place at those rates. The farmers of the colony were prosecuting their pursuits with great energy and success. Potatoes of the finest quality were selling from ss. to 7s. per cwt., while the price of flour was quoted at 261. per ton, enabling bread to be sold at from 10d. to Is. the 41b. loaf. The yield of the precious metal at the various goldfields continued steadily to increase, notwith standing the temporary obstacles of winter, and the consequent cessation of operations on several goldfields. The respective amounts brought down by escort for the first four months of 1856 were 962,040 ounces, against 589,337 ounces for the same period in 1855. Up to the 24th of May, 1856, 185,897 ounces had been received, against 120,424 ounces. for th., same rot._ last year. ' an - m i c e -of sold remained at ot._ es.,-.4 lE ith.' an active demand. The _rumoured discovery of new goldfields in the Gipps Lend District, fir removed from the locality of the known auri ferous districts, had been confirmed by reports from the district surveyor. At Mount Korong diggings, which had been almost abandoned as a failure, several monster nuggets had been dis covered. Quartz crushing continued on the in crease. There was very little doing in wool. For tallow the demand for colonial use was almost equal to the quantity produced. The labour mar ket remained about the same as last quoted, there being no material diff erence i n the rate of wages. What is called th e e i g h t - hour movement had ben pretty generally successful, but it was thought that ultimately it would operate to the loss of those tradesmen who commenced the agitation, as a large influx of labour was arriving from the adjacent colonies. Sydney accounts state that the new Parliament would be called together for the despatch of busi ness on the 221 of May. The Governor-General had appointed Mr. Alfred Denison to he his Excellency's private secretary ; also, with the advice of the Executive Council, Mr. William Macpherson to be clerk of the Legis lative Council of New South Wales. The sgydney Herald says:— " From the expression of political opinion made by members of the Government during the recent elec• tions we may anticipate that its general scheme of policy will involve something like the following pro4rainme : The introduction of a measure for the repeal of the two third clauses of the Constitution Act; measures for the establishment of municipal institutions; a comprehensive system of education which shall allay anituo,ities and c nismand general re:Tea and support; a revision of the administrative departments of the Government, with a view to a numerical reduction in subordinate, combined with increased efficiency from ability ; a vigorous prose cution of public works in general, and of railway exten sion in particular, with a view to the increase in the value of the property of the colony, and the tsanstniFsion of the produce of its remote districts to markets not available ; the full and unreserved consideration of the land question, both as to the distribution of the land, and the control of the revenue to be derived from it, and with the object of according greater facilities to the acquisition of public lands, with the protection of existing private rights, and of providing such a system of taxation as shall bear more equally than at present on those who have to contribute to the generalrevenuesof the country." The Sydney commercial accounts describe busi ness to be about the same as previously reported. At Adelaide the wheat and flour market was dull at a slight decline in price. Money was a little easier MILITIA. The 109th, or County of Dublin Light Infantry Regi ment of Militia, was formally disembodied on Monday in the square of the Linen-hall Barracks. Each man received 10s. bounty and 14 days' pay. At Ballarat the purchasing rate of gold had ad vanced from the Bank price of 775. 6d. to 78s. 3d., in consequence of a desire to ship by the Royal Charter. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. The Sardinian, the.

ARCHDEACON DENISON'S CASE.—THE JUDGMENT. -- BATH, August 12.—This being the day fixed upon for the deliverance of judgment in the case of Archdeacon Denison, charged with having preached doctrines con trary to the Articles of the Church of England, in rela tion to the real presence in the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper, the court was crowded at an early hour. Dr. Lushington pronounced the doctrine preanhed by the archdeacon in the cathedral church of Wells, on the 6th of August, 1853, to be contrary and repugnant to the 25th, 28th, 29th, and 35th of the Articles of Reli gion. Time was allowed the rev. gentleman to revoke his errors until the 21st of October.

We have received the following letters from our Special Correspondent, who, it will b e seen f rom from th e i r d ates, has arrived at St. Petersburg, on his way to Moscow : ST. PETERSBURG, AUGUST 4. This morning the thunders of artillery awoke all Petersburg, -and the sea -coast town within many mileS, to witness a grand review of the Russian mortar-boats off Cronstadt. Yesterday evening, as our steamer approached Cronstadt, we had seen the Russian fleet some 15 or 20 miles east of that fortress. There were 12 (I think) line -of-battle ships, and about 18 or 20 frigates. When we came to the guardship we had to moor there for the night, as our vessel, - the Gothenburg, a fine screw-steamer, drew too much water (11 feet) to pass the bar till she had discharged part of her freight, and we could not obtain a small boat till daylight.. At first we were disappointed at this delay, but next morning we had every reason to congratulate ourselves that a readier despatch had not deprived ns ofla 'very animated and striking spectacle: • We were immediately boarded by a . semi-civilian, and very civil officer, who talked any language that happened to come uppermost ; a naval or military, or both naval and military'offi car, whose business was not to talk, at all, • btit in silent obesity to represent the martial power ; ;and lastly, a scrivener, with a leather bag containing a seal as large as the dial of a timepiece. Theicap- ' Lain of our boat produced tjae recluisiteslnaumffnls s s and smile champagne and capital cigars. To my snrpriste—s-forsl know that such articles are appre ciated in Russia—the principal officer of the three who visited us almost immediately lost his gay appearance. - He declined the champagne (a second glass, that is); he threw down his cigar ; he leant his forehead on his hand, one of his companions, the representative of the Cronstadt military , autho rity, laughed, urged him in Russ to take off his glass, and asked him what was the matter. " This stupid vessel," replied he, in the same language, "ought to have let two anchors down ; she rolls so that I am quite sick already." He thought this was not understood. Yet for three months this gentle man had never once been on land. He lived entirely in the guardship. It is well that the Russian navy can now take exercise. Had the blockade lasted much longer, a short row in an open boat, and 20 miuutes on board of a steamer riding at single anchor, would have sufficed to make the greatest veteran in the Russian navy sea-sick. The whole of Cronstadt was alert at daybreak on the 4th, and we passed through the whole line of steam mortar-boats. There were 75 in number, ex tended along a diagonal front of 15 versts (or 10 miles English) within Cronstadt, and from that place to the shore of Peterhof; Every one of these boats was furnished with the screw propeller. Moro than two-thirds of them carried three mortars each—one in the stern, one amid-ships, and one in the bows-- the rest carried only two pieces. They were very large. The crew of each boat numbered from 4(1 to 50. The boats were hastily got up ; they are very light in motion, and of very shallow draught. They offer scarcely any mark, and are considerably lower in the water than the French boats or ours of similar construction. The reason of this is, that ours were built for offence, and intended to be able to cross the German Ocean or any seas These Russian boats would not live in a heavy sea, nor could they safely venture far from shelter ; but in these land-locked waters, to seize th e i r t i me , to creep about, or t o a id in the defence of an assailed port, they are perfectly sufficient in quality, although not in number. The Emperor appeared on the water at 11, and after the boats had ma noeuvred he steamed back to Peterhoff. This was the great naval review not only of the Russian Baltic fleet which has lived thrOugh the war, but of the new fleet of Russian mortar-boats which may be said to have been born of it, and which, having silently and rapidly come into exist ence, made their first grand, open, and avowed appearance on the morning in question. It was a remarkably lucky day for a sight-seer to arrive. To this review Sir Charles Napier, inasmuch as he was on a visit to Russia and in the neighbour horid, received a special invitation from the High Admiral of the empire, the Grand Duke Constan tine. Before mentioning more particularly the im posing demonstration, through the midst of which our steamer happened to s have its way to take. I -eaasis mention that t h e land orattsention s whlcsa •e s Russian Court and authorities showed to Sir C. Napier (whose visit, in the first instance, took thorn completely by surprise) was, while perfectly courteous, acidulated with a fine and delicate fla vour of irony, which seems to have been quite lost tmon the perceptive power of the gallant admiral. Your readers can judge for themselves ; and I will mention ono or two incidents of Sir Charles's visits and sojourn, because they aro characteristic of other parsons as well as that of the well known offi cer, and because the whole style in which he brought himself into contact with Russia on this occasion is curious. The very first direct intimation conveyed to him, after his presence in St. Peters burg had been notified to the higher powers, was couched in phrases which would have made many a man wince. He was told that orders had been given at Cronstadt and elsewhere to receive him, should he desire to look through these places; and ho was politely assured that he would not now experience any difficulty in entering the various fortresses. At the same time, the Grand Duke exist:entitle ordered a steamer to be stationed in the river, just under the windows of Sir Charles's rooms, on the English quay, and a Russian officer informed the visitor that this vessel was for his special behoof and accommodation ' • but first h e was b egge d to repair at once t o the Grand Da're's residence, " the Marble Palace." Sir Charles forthwith douned his Russian cross of St. George (received long ago for the St. Jean d'Acre hit), and waited on the Grand Duke. The manner in which the gallant admiral had notified his presence, in the first in stance, outside C rons t a dt , was droll. The steamer, according to custom, had dropped her anchor about a mile or two beyond that fortress, abeam of the Russian guardship. On board this last it happened to bo dinner hour ; and, therefore, no attention was for some time paid to the English vessel, which was obliged to tarry thus until she had been visited and her papers had been inspected by the proper officers from the guard-ship. Sir Charles became dreadfully impatient after having examined all he could see from that position of the Russian fleet. He had steamed through a large division of it some 10 or 15 miles further seaward, where about a score line-of-battle ships and frigates had gone out, and whore they have been every day for some weeks, exercising and manoeuvring in the Gulf of Finland. The sight produced a high state of mettle and excitement in the gallant admiral, who exclaimed, " Ali, if those chaps had only come out that far when I was in command, perhaps they wouldn't ha'e caught it !" Finding that the guard-ship continued absorbed in dinner, Sir ,Charles called up the chief officer, gave him his card, and told him to board the Rus sian vessel with that in his hand. The result an swered his wishes. A boat came alongside imme diately, and the aerial telegraph of the guard-ship began to fling about its arms in a style which quickly set those of the Cronstadt semaphore in motion. Thus the gallant admiral literally sent up his card to Russia, and found her at home. When the officers came aboard th e y we re attacked forthwith by Sir Ch a rl es b y a t hi c k di sc h arge of questions —a fire which they promptly returned . by the most astoundi ng d ec l arat i ons. S ir Charles pointed towards Oranienbaum, the b e autiful groves n ov o es of which came dow n t o t h e water ' s e d ge , close the right hand—" Have you any guns . there?" " Yes—some 14 batteri es ." " A n d there?" point ing to Peterhoff. "Oh yes, a b out a h un dred guns there." These batteries are wonderfully well concealed, for at least at Peterhoff I defy any visitor to detect them. Sir Charles, however, seemed to believe the answers he thus obtained. At the quay in St. Petersburg a crowd of people were collected to see the admiral disembark. When he went to Peter hoff he proceeded in his off-hand way straight to the Emperor's palace, and demanded of a servant. in the grounds whether his Majesty was there ? The man could not speak any language that Sii Chart: s spoke (or rather vice 'versa), bat an English gentleman translated the question, and then tran slated the answ er , w hi c h was that Alexand er IL was not there, but at his farm, a little distance off. No appearance of mystery or reticence was observed towards Sir Charles in any of the warlike esta blishments. ST. PETERSBURG, AUG. 6. Many persons in England will be interested and edified, not to say suprised, on learning the nature of those rural employments or recreations which, in Alexander IL's case, are beguiling the retire ment so usual with the Czars at this season.

There is and the gen era l ' comparative excellence of the va chenge, whi c h are a li tt l e less hackneyed and less vulgarised than most others by the profaning every reason to believe that it will become widely ecstacies of tourists and the pumped-up raptures of popular and commonly used ; and that the charac diary-writers. ter of the weather during the time of year when the journey can be made with the most pleasure will compensate passengers for the proportionably brief season in which they can still command an abun dant choice of lines, converging ultimately in a common destination. The summer of the north is short ;• but it is so beautiful and respleadent, that only those who have sojourned amidst its too fleet ing glories can 'ever picture to themselves anything approaching the reality. Association has done as much as nature to invest the classic regions of Europe with the charms which, for nearly twenty centuries, have drawn to the shores of the Medi terranean, in occasional visits, all who had the leisure and the means. But if history has dwelt chiefly in the south, it issued at least from the north. To leave, however, all old world ' reflections, e it is enough th a t recent events have made a now and permanent addition to the interest of the Scandinavian coasts and waters, as well as to that of the great empire of which they form on one side the lodge-gates and avenues ; that another and a still greater interest, the commercial, has not only sprung into redoubled activity, in order to recover the losses of an. in terrn Cintion, hnt. has re ina.o.liew forms of aveippruent-i - this has occurred at a moment when the means of transit, transport, and business are so marvellously increased that, even in the ab sence of the vast reciprocal capabilities which pro duce traffic between one land and another, they would induce the communication and allure the intercourse which they render easy and assured. So great, indeed, just 'at this instant, is the rush towards Northern Russia (which is reached, of course, with less expense than the opposite quar ter, now made so familar to millions by an expedi tion collected, in its civil and military composition, from all the homes of France and England)—so great is this rush that, for a while, certain com panies and capitalists among our all-undertaking world of business contemplated establishing ex cursions to Russia. But even this age is unripe for that as a paying speculation. Were it other wise, it were indeed an excursion worth making. The change is inconceivable, and therefore the mental shock or stimulus is complete. No very great enlargement of the ideas—no very effective rousing of the "dazed" and jaded faculties of the individual, whom a stationary life and a monoto nous experience may have mesmerised into a species of mechanical sleep-awake state—can be obtained by journeying suddenly from the capital of a coun try to one of own towns a few hours distant, presenting the same aspect in miniature, resound ing with the same speech, arranged, governed, dressed, educated in the same manner ; nothing ' different except size,while language, liabi ts, customs, looks, principles, in the smaller place are all pre cisely such as were left behind at the bigger. A change of air, no doubt, is procured ; but the mind, as well as the body, requires to change its atmo sphere now and then. Unluckily, the expense of a summer trip to Mos cow must remain considerable ; and the only question in such a case is not what everybody would like, or what would do anybody good—but what is the state of one's purse. It is a very trifling mino rity who need not trouble themselves with that con sideration ; and knowing this, the traveller to Moscow from England. or France, daring the last week or two, cannot fail to have been struck with the prodi g ious number; i ncreas i ng as l ie a d vance d , who were hurrying to the same destination. Th e approaching Coronation in the ancient capital of Russia is the one great topic of conversation in the steam-boat, on the railway, in the inn, along the entire road or line from the German Ocean to the frontiers of Poland. It is not only to be the most splendid Coronation that ever occurred in Russia, but the most splendid public ceremonial of any kind ever held among a people singularly fond of spec tacles, and by a Government which unites in its festivals the barbaric pcimp of Asia, and the skilful taste of Europe, with the forms of the most gorgeous church that has ever existed on earth, and the sub sidiary aids of military displays nowhere else exhi bited on so large a scale, or with such diversity of costumes, uniforms, and equipments. All these imposing elements are to be collected in a city itself the most interesting in the empire, and the link between the two oldest and greatest of conti nents ; where Asia, blazing in her jewels and her gold, yet only just this side of the pathless forest and of the sea-like steppe, emerges from them to gaze upon Europe. No pains, no expense, no circumstance of martial state, no engine of religious excitement, is to lie spared by the Rus• sian Government. But this is not all 1 The embassies of foreign countries—and, above all, ' those of England and France—nay, the very mul titude of opulent private persons flocking in great state to the scene will serve to render Alexander i the Second's Coronation a subject of talk hereafter among the Russian population, when old people will relate that they witnessed it, "in the holy mother-city of Russia," during the days of .their childhood. Nor will the external magnificence and' strangeness, which are undoubtedly destined to characterise : this grand soleMnity, ex haust the whole int eres t o f it . i t i s to be the great "make up," not only after the late war, but after the inis 7 takes and cross-purposes of the last half century; and over this " cloth of gold " Russia is to step into the European circle, and take her place- puce and for all as a valued, a pacific, a sincere memb er of th e genera l community. Finally, this Corona tion is not like the Great Exhibition, which would remain long,' and might be visited at any time. On the 'contrary, it will be soon over, and the like may never be. seen again.

Windham paid a visit to Bedale, in the North Riding of Yorkshire, a town with which be is.connected by marriage ties, his wife being the sister of Mr. Henry Beresford Peirse, of Bedale. On learning a short time since that". the hero of the Redan" would 'Make a ternperarylitijourffat the town, the inlvibitants decided oa giving thin a most hearty re ception, and a handsome subscription was raised for the pu'rpose of carryitik out their arrangements. The Prepa .ratiofis were conducted with great spirit, and on the day named the town presented' a very gay appearance, nut a house scarcely being without its flags and banners, with appropriate inscriptions. Triumphal arches were erected at various points, and a tent was pitched in the market place capable of dining 600 persons. General and Mrs. Windham arrived by special train shortly after 11 o'clock, and were received at the railway station by most of the nobility, gentry, and clergy of the town, and neighbourhood, and amongst the number was Captain Swir ~ the general'. aide-de-camp, •who, it a 1:1 be remembered, was severely wounded in the attack oa the Redan.

Milbank, of Thorpe Perrow, read an appropriate address to General Windham, who briefly replied. The carriage was.- then drawn to Mr. Peine a hall, and in about two ' hours after wards a numerous party from the ball proceeded to the tent already referi . ed to. About 250.1adiet and gentle men partook of a cold collation, and nearly 400 heads of families were gratuitously provided- at' the same time r with a hot dinner, Mr. Milbank occupied the chair, and after grace proposed the usual loyal toasts. Lord Bolton then gave, "Our brave allies ;" and,Lord Green ock (nephew of the late gallant s.ir George Cathcart) followed with "The army and navy." This 't , a-t was acknowledged by Admiral Wyvill, and Col. Wade, of the North York Rifles. The Chairrry i n then 'proposed "The health of G enera l Wi n dh am, " in doing which he briefly noticed some of the events of the late war in which the gallant general had been concerned. Tap 'toast was drunk with enthusiiistic cheers, which were renewed when the general rose for the purpose of responding. In the course of his remarks he said he -took no great credit to himself in what he bad done at the Redan, though he had been called its-hero. He pointed to Captain Swire as _haying done more ; for the latter bad passed thrice through the fire, and fed w , undo ' , w hil e he only passed through it once. -.At the close of his speech three hearty cheers were given for Captain S wire. Lord Teignrnouth next proposed "The .fallen heroes of the late war," and deprecated the calumnioUs attacks which bad been made on Lord Raglan and others by a portion of the press. "The health of Mrs. Windham" was next proposed by the Rev. J. 'J. T. Monson, rector of Bedale. "The Committee," proposed by Iris countGal way, nextfollowed;after which Mr..

An adjourned meeting of the Metropolitan Board of Works was held yesterday in the Council Chamb:r, ; Mr. J. Thwail es in the chair. EXTENSION OF THE MAIN OUTFALL SEWER ON THE SOUTIIERN SIDE OF THE RIVER THAMES TO A POINT IN LONG REACH, BELOW ERITH. The CHAIRMAN opened the discussion of tllis important question by suggesting that the board should request their engineer to reconsider the subject and report to the board what would be the cost of taking the sewage of London beyond Sea Reach, and by one line on the northern side, because he (the chairman) believed that that plan would be at once comprehensive and efficient, and worthy of the board. This question was surrounded by many difficulties. The towns on the banks of the Thames rose up one after the other to protest against the sewag e beim?: di ,, charged near them. To carry the sewage beyond Sea Reach would involve a large outlay, .but he felt satisfied that the ratepayers of the metropolis would not begrudge the sum necessary for carrying away the sewage in the most efficient and least objectionable mode, --- Mr. SAVAGE concurred in the chairman's suggestion, and, with the view of giving it effect, moved the follow ing provide resolution :a "That th e eng i neer should be required to further information as to the cost of combin ing the drainage of the northern and southern sides of the Thames, and extending the main outlet to a point on the Essex shore, near to Mucking Creek." Major LYON moved as an amendment that the report should be referred back to the engineer to report upon th e point of outfall, without naming any place. Mr. IL L. TAYLOR believed if the board had been content to select the Erith marshes as the point of out. fall, Sir B. Hall wou ld have assented to that plan. Long Reach was too distant for an outfall, but if they carried the sewage still further to Mucking Creek it would be a very curious affair indeed. Mr. BUESLEM thought that the board ought to have insisted with great energy before her Majesty's Govern- ment that ther i plan was t o di scharge the sewage at Barkin Mr. HAWKER submitted that unless the members of the board were members of a red mountain, they were bound to abide by the decision of her Majesty's Govern. ment. The board was under the command and control of the Government. (Cries of " No, no.") Mr. H. L. TAYLOR—ltidiculouE. Mr. FEw thought the boa r d ought to adopt the report of tho engineer in favour of discharging the sewage at Long Reach. Mr. BASALGETTE explained that he did not think that that was the best point for the outfall. He had merely reported with regard to Long Reach because the board had instructed him to do so. After further discussion, Mr. SAVAGE replied, observing that the effect of the amendment would be to bring the board back again to the plan in favour of Erith marshes, and he therefore hoped that the board would reject the amendment. On a division the numbers were— For the amendment 26 Against it Majority — 4 2 The amendment thus b ecame the, main question. Mr. FEw moved an amendment, to the effect " That the report of the engineer recommending the extension of the main outfall sewer, on the southern side of the Thames, from Woolwich Arsenal, in a direct line to a point on the banks of the River Thames in the Erith marshes, known as Half -way Reach, be adopted."
