THE HERITORS AND KIRR-SESSION OF THE PARISH OF BALMACLELLAN, KIRCUDBRIGHT SHIRE. This was a case brought by two aged women, residing in the parish of Balmaclellan, against the heritors and kirk-session, for an increased allowance from the funds set apart for the maintenance of the poor. The facts of the case are as follow:—The paupers, who are sisters, and are both between eighty and ninety years of age, have been resident in the parish of Balmaclellan for at least the last twenty years of their lives. Till the year 1840—when they had each passed the ordinary term of human existence—no application was made by them for relief from the parish funds; but in that year, owing to their great age and infirmities, they were very re luctantly obliged to make application to the parish for an allowance of aliment for their support. On view ing their case, the heritors and kirk-session agreed to allow them 21. each per annum, being ,less than three halfpence a-day to each. This being totally inadequate, they again petitioned that body, who, upon the 20th of June, 1843, increased their allowance to 31. a-year, or ls. lid. per week. In addition to this, the parish paid 21. per annum for a small and almost uninhabitable hut, in which the paupers reside, and also provided them with a partial supply of peats. Nothing was allowed for clothes, which, with all other necessaries, they were left to provide as they best could out of their weekly al lowance of thirteenpence-halfpenny. Viewing this as totally insufficient for that needful sustentation to which they were entitled by the statutes providing for the support of the poor, particularly 1579, cap. 75, the paupers again applied to the heritors and kirk-session for an augmenta tion of their aliment. On this petition the following interlocutor was pronounced : —" Balmaclellan Kirk, 4th September, 1843. The meeting took into considera tion the within petition, and, on examination, find it inaccurate in several particulars, as, in the course of last year, up to this date, Janet and Mary Halliday have re ceived 81. 13s. from the parish ; and further, that as the said aged women keep in their house a nephew, for whom, on the lowest estimate, they receive, or are entitled to re ceive, 21. 12s. per annum, or. ls. per week ; while there fore the session will deem it their duty, in case of emer gency or great distress, to grant, from time to time, additional relief, they refuse to place them on the per manentroll for a larger sum than at present." Knowing these statements to be quite erroneous, the paupers brought the deliverance under review of the Court of Session by advocation ; pleading-Ist. That, in the circumstances of their case, they were entitled to be provided with "needful sustentation," including clothes and lodging, at the expense of the heritors and kirk-session. 2d. That the judgment complained of ought to be advocated and the advocators found entitled to such sum as should be sufficient for the purpose of their aliment and cloth ing, and also to the use of a habitable dwelling-house, in place of their present miserable hut. 3d. That their nephew not being able, and though he were so, not being under any legal obligation, to support the advocators, he must be left out of view; and 4th. That the respon dents were not entitled to evade the statute (which en joins a fixed and definite allowance) by pleading that they might give " occasional aid," and that such " occa sional aid" must also be left out of view. These pleas were met by the following on the part of the heritors and kirk•session :-Ist. That though, " after the decision in the case of Ceres, they raised no question as to the competency or power of the Court to review their deliverance, yet they submitted that no grounds were stated which were either relevant or sufficient to warrant any interference with their deliverance in the matter. 2d. That the permanent allowance made to the advocators was adequate and sufficient for their sus tentation, and that it was open for them to apply for any occasional 'aid as disease, or other emergent causes, might require ; and, 3d. That the advocation should be dismissed." After hearing parties, the Lord Ordinary (Murray) pronounced the following interlocutor and note : " 20th March, 1844.—The Lord Ordinary having heard parties' procurator, and thereafter considered the cause, in respect it is inexpedient to interfere with the allowances allocated to paupers by kirk-sessions except in extreme cases, and that no sufficient allegations have been made for such interference in the present instance, repels the reasons of advocation, remits the case simpliciter to the kirk-session ; finds no expenses due on either side, and decerns. (Signed) " JOHN A. MURRAY."

TIMES.—It is expected that in a few days a deputa tion will wait on the Chancellor of the Exchequer on the subject of the Savings-bank BilL___This citzotAipii will mui.vist jar—c;,. ...ungnny Antiv, M.P., Mr. Wilson Patten, M.P., Mr. Brother ton, M.P., Mr. Vesey, M.P., Mr. Gregory, M.P., and gentlemen from different savings -banks,—viz , Mr. Has lam (Dublin), Mr. Besnard (Cork), Mr. Boodle (St. Martin's-place), Mr. Marsden and Mr. Neild (Manches ter), Mr. Robinson (Hull), Mr. Davies (Lambeth), Mr. Maitland (Edinburgh), Mr. Lee (Devon and Exeter), Mr. Dawe (Devonport), and Mr. Mason (St. Clement Danes). The whole will represent the deputations from thirty-five savings-banks, comprising 219,280 depositors, and 5,514,889/. amount of deposits. The deputation will urge the injustice of so small a rate of interest as 2/. 15s. being allowed to depositors, and will contend for 31 Os. 10d. (2d per cent. per diem) as the maximum to the depositor, and 31. Ss. 51d. (211 per cent. per diem) to to trustees of savings -banks. At the same time they intend to show, that if the funds had been duly admi nistered, they would have yielded an interest of 31. 12s. 2d., or at any rate, according to general admission, 3/. 7s. Bd., and that such interest, which is more than they claim, might have b een pro d uce d b y t h e savings bank fund, supporting itself. They will also suggest that no alteration be made in the existing law as to the liability of trustees, except by declaring how a manager or trustee may discharge himself of all future liability, if so disposed ; and will attempt to obtain from the Chancellor of the Exchequer some assurance that he will not connect savings -banks and loan societies. This latter course is very much to the credit of the parties, inasmuch as great efforts are made by persons, evidently proceeding upon interested motives, to graft the loan system upon that of the savings-banks, and intimations have even gone abroad that the Chancellor of the Exchequer was dis posed to make this a part of his general plan. There could be, however, as we have before shown when treating of this subject, no effectual control over such operations, and hence the greatest danger of having the funds wasted or misapplied, which ought to be, above all others, the most sacred from any jobbing or speculation. The members of the deputation act wisely in putting forward prominently that point of the mal administration of the funds of the savings.banks, though they seem inclined to treat the affair with a good deal of deli cacy, as if fearful of offending the Treasury. Upon this, we think, they and their advocates are bound to speak out boldly ; but it is satisfactory, on the whole, to observe, that the interests of the savings -banks are sure to be so well looked after as now appears to be the case. how _ administered with care. and discrimination: tion was made against the bona fide of the kirk-session. The Lord Ordinary, therefore, felt that he could not in terfere without a great hazard of doing mischief, and he relied on the statement made on the part of the kirk session, that they would regard the increasing infirmi ties of these old persons, and give them such further al lowance as might be required. The attention of the unassured portion of the community cannot be too pointedly drawn to the unusual advantages offered to the Public by this Society over those of many others, as it enables all classes to effect life assurances in the manner most convenient to themselves, and amongst other of its popular features, that of allow ing the assured (by Table 2) to leave half the Annual Premiums un paid for seven years, will not be found undeserving public attention. Immediate and deferred Annuities, and every description of Life Assurance business undertaken by this Society. Prospectuses, and all other requisite information, will be furnished on application to the Secretary, or the Country Agents of the Society. E. T. RICHARDSON, Secretary. (Initd.) " J. A. M." Against this interlocutor the advocators reclaimed to the First Division of the Court, and when the case came to be advised before their Lordships, on the 11th inst., Professor More was heard on behalf of the advocators, and Mr. Robert Whigham for the heritors and Kirk session. The LORD JUSTICE-GENERAL thought the allowance not sufficient for the " needful sustentation" of the ad vocators. He felt the delicacy of judging in such cases as the present. He knew the Court had not the same means of judging of the circumstances of the paupers as the heritors and kirk-session, who were on the spot had, and he was glad to find that the Commissioners lately employed by Parliament to report as to the Scot tish Poor-laws had recommended that the Court of Ses sion should have no power to review the decisions of he ritors and kirk-session. Still he found it his duty, both as a judge and a heritor, to say that the whole allow ance made to these two old women was totally inade quate for their needful sustentation, and he was of opi nion that they should remit to the heritors and kirk session to increase the allowance. Lord MACKENZIE concurred. He said it was impos sible to believe twopence a-day to be " needful susten tation." Lord FULLERTON was of the same opinion. It was clear that "" needful sustentation" was not given. But the difficulty was to fix what was needful—and he con curred in the proposal to order an increase, and remit to the heritors and kirk-session to make it. Lord JEFFREY entirely concurred. He lamented the evil of being called on to relieve such eases as the present, and was sorry for the dissipation of the funds intended for the poor in such litigations as the present. He could not go along with the Lord Ordinary, by calling two pence a-day sufficient sustentation. He did not be lieve that the advocators could live on such a sum, and was sure they must be assisted otherwise by kind or benevolent persons. If they had had nothing but the mere allowance of the parish to subsist on, he was sure they must heve been starved before this time. It was im possible for the Court to look at any casual allowances from other persons. The old paupers could not have long now to live, and it was not right in the parish to stint them in the manner they did of the sustentation they, of all paupers, so much required. It was said that it was a great evil to raise the allow ances of the poor, or for the Court to judge in such cases, but he was sure, on comparing this evil with the bad effects of reducing the allowances to the lowest possible sum, that the interposition of the Court to prevent starvation was the minor evil of the two. The crimes and other bad effects that must result from refusing to afford the relief to the poor which the law had appointed are evils of no small magnitude, and which ought to be prevented by a fair administration of the existing poor laws of Scotland. Their Lordships unanimously pronounced the follow ing judgment:— " Edinburgh, 11th June, 1844.—The Lords having considered the reclaiming note for Janet and Mary Hal liday, advocators, and having heard the Counsel for the parties, find that the present allowance to the advoca tors does not afford the needful sustentation to which they are entitled. Therefore, recal the interlocutor of the Lord Ordinary reclaimed against, and remit to the respondents, the heritors and kirk-session of Balmaclel lan, to reconsider their deliverance, dated 4th Septem ber, 1843, and to award such farther allowance as may, under the whole circumstances of the case, be deemed reasonable ; and decern. Find the advocators entitled to expenses of process so far as hitherto incurred, ap point an account thereof to be given in, and remit to the auditor to tax the same and to report. (Signed) " D.

The DIRECTORS hereby give notice to Members whose Pre. miums fall due on the sth of July next, that the same must be paid within thirty days from that date. The premiums are payable yearly, half.yearlv, or quarterly, on the sth of January, sth of April, sth of July, and sth of October, either of which several days constitutes the commencement of the year to Members. Persons, therefore, desirous of entering the Society, as Members, on the sth of July next, should appear, or lodge their proposals at the Office, on or before that day. So various are the plans now befoce the public for effecting As surance on Lite, that it may seem difficult to make choice between them. As, however, all prudent offices make a considerably higher charge in the annual premium than experience has hitherto shown to be necessary, but differ in the mode of disposing of the surplus or profit, the following classification may be made:- Ist. Proprietary Offices, where all the surplus from premiums and other profits is divided, exclusively, amongst the Share or Stock holders. 2d. Offices where the same is divided in various proportions be tween Share and Stockholders and the Assured. 3d. Offices of a strictly mutual character, where the whole of the profit is equitably distributed amongst the Assured only. • The METROPOLITAN, which Is of the last class, was established in 1835, and although no paid agents for town or country have at any time been employed, nor any expensive system of advertising re sorted to, yet its advantages have been so well appreciated by the public, that the annual premiums already exceed £49,000. In consequence of the prosperous state of the Society's affairs, the Annual Premiums of Members of Five Years' standing have been reduced FO RTY-TWO AND A HALF per Cent. A plan of the Society, with tables of rates, may be obtained on application at the office. RICHARD HEATHFIELD, Superintendent. Princes-street, Bank, 10th June, 1844. D R. WARBURG'S VEGETABLE FEVER DROPS. This medicine has been proved in 'many thousand cases to be far more efficacious than any febrifuge hitherto known, while its use entails none of the unpleasant consequences too frequently pro duced by quinine and other preparations of bark. It is purely vegetable ; its operation is uniform—its effects Imme diate ; and it may be safely administered to infants at the breast. The action of the medicine is slightly narcotic and highly sudorific ; pains in the head, back, and limbs are immediately relieved, and fever is eradicated in from six to twenty-four hours. It is exhibited in the form of a tincture, a phial containing two doses of three drachms each being sufficient in any case. It has been extensively ased in the East and West Indies, France, Germany and Italy, with unqualified success, in cases of the most malignant nature, and with equal efficacy in fevers of every type. As it may be safely taken under any circumstances, with a certainty of immediate relief, it will be found invaluable when other medical aid cannot be obtained. Those, therefore, who, either on business or plea sure, visit the South of France, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Egypt, and the neighbouring countries, and, above all, residents in the East and West Indies, the Mediterranean, African, and South American colonies, will do well to avail themselves of a remedy, the perfept safety and extraordinary efficacy of which have been proved many thousand instances, and in every climate. By providing themselves with a supply of t his medicine, own or masters of vessels trading to the coast of Africa, the southern States of America, and other parts where fever is prevalent, will prevent its ravages from currying off or disabling their crews, at, a cost which is utterly insignificant when compared with the value,of lives and the time lost, and the expense incurred for hired labeig, necessarily employed in foreign ports whenever the ship's companyis unequal to the duty. Testimonials of the most convincing nature from Sir Andrew Hal liday, Deputy Inspector General of Army Hospitals (in his official report, dated British Guiana, Oct. 5, 1834, and in his letter to _the Right Honourable Lord Viscount Howick, Secretary at War, on Sick nessi and Mortality in the West Indies, March 8, 1839), anainu morons other distinguished members of the profe ssion, British .t i o lonial, and Continental , are in the pos session of Dr. Warburg. t tested copies of the official reports, &c., may be obtained on ap 'ca tion to any of the Agents fo r the sale of the Medicine. .., Dr. Warburg's Febrifuge is prepared only under his own imme diate direction, and is issued exclusively from his Laboratory, No. 27, King William-street, Charing-cross, London ; but it may be obtained of Agents in any part of Great Britain, and also in most of the Bri tish Colonies, price Bs. per phial. 7111 HE STATE OF THE WEATHER. Don't wonder, good reader, nor take it amiss, That we draw a few hints from a subject like this. You'll find, when the stanzas are all put together, That many just thoughts:may be:glean'd from the" Weather. In the country throughout, do the farmers complain, 'I hat the land has been water'd with so little rain. Scarce a cloud has appear'd in the lofty blue sky, And the fountains of Heaven appear to be dry. What a contrast is daily exemplified, thus, 'Twixt the singular state of the Weather, and US. A hundred-fold happier portion is ours, For favours still bless us in " copious show'rs ;" The patronage granted to MOSES and SON, " Pours down in rich streams" as it ever has done.

To merit such plentiful favours as these, R MOSES and SON will do still more to please. The public they'll serve, to their utmost endeavour , And the costumes they form shall be choicer than ever Like the earth which receives the rich boon from the sky, We'll render the public a ten-fold supply.

By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 4351 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 1014. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13101 ; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13 Bi, it follows that gold is 0.75 per cent. dearer in Hamburgh than in London. The course of exchange at New York on London is 109 per cent., and the par of exchange between Eng land and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 0.58 per cent. against England.

'Wee: PEWS IN CHURCHES.--Many persons imagine that they may by law be allowed to hoc off their parish church into many compartments, and that the different owners of•these can sell, mortgage, and devise them in the same way as they do their houses and lands—but such is a great mistake. No person has a freehold right to a seat, nor can he sell, mortgage, or devise it. "When the seats cease to be occupied by their previous occu pants, the churchwardens may (and do in most parishes) give them to others in want of sittings. Any parish ioner may claim to be seated in his own church, pro vided there is room, and the'churchwardens may place him in the seat of another, if the latter's family be not sufficiently numerous to fill it.'

Already twenty-one vessels have arrived here laden with her rings from the Lewis, and nineteen again loaded and dispatched to the Baltic markets, carrying with them 6,805 barrels• THE WATERLOO BANQUET.

By seven o'clock some hundreds of individuals had congregated, including a number of noble equestrians, and many of the nobility in their carriages, which rendered that populous thoroughfare nearly impassable for an hour. A strong body of the police, under Superintendent Baker, were, however, so instrumental in preserving order, that not the slightest accident occurred. Shortly before seven the carriages began to arrive, and while the company were gathering, the full band of the Gre nadier Guards (the Duke's regiment), stationed in the ves tibule, performed a variety of martial music. The Marquis of Anglesey, Lord Strafford, Lord Saltoun, &c., on being recognised by the mob without, were warmly cheered. It was twenty minutes past seven when his Royal High ness Prince Albert arrived from Buckingham Palace, at tended by Major-General Sir Edward Bowater (a Waterloo officer) and Lord George Lennox. The Duke of Wellington was at the door to welcome his Royal Highness, as the carriage entered the court-yard, and on the Prince alighting the Noble and Gallant Duke ad vanced and cordially greeted his illustrious visitor. The Duke then conducted his Royal Highness to the sa loon where all the company had met, the band, as the Prince passed, playing the " Coburg March." At half-past seven precisely dinner was announced, when the Duke with the Prince and the other 'guests repaired to the gallery, where, as usual, a sumptuous repast awaited the presence of the host and his friends. It is quite unnecessary to give a lengthened description of the splendid apartment always appropriated for this annual entertainment, for, to a large class of our readers, its valu able and extensive collection of paintings, by the ancient masters, particularly of Italy and Spain, is well known, and the superior and costly nature of its embellishments have often afforded admiration to our haute noblesse. The table presented most of its general features, the cele brated and certainly unrivalled Portuguese plateau, with its elaborate candelabra and figures, being placed along the centre of the table. At each end of the gallery were side boards of gold plate, the assemblage having many conspicuous pieces of massive ornamental plate, presented at different times to the Noble Duke. The gallery was illuminated by candelabra, and the only lights for the table were from the two stupendous porphyry pedestals, richly mounted in ormulu, sustaining about fifty lamps, which were presented to the Duke by the Emperor Alexander of Russia. There was a profusion of the choicest exotics, not only in the gallery, but in the superb rooms through which the company passed. The banquet was served up in a service of gold, and the dessert service used was the magnificent set of Potsdam china, a gift from the late King of Prussia to his Grace. The gallery, when all the guests were seated, attired in their rich and varied uniforms, decorated with the orders and medals acquired by their gallantry, could not fail to excite the admiration of the fortunate beholder, as presenting a gor geous coup d'ceil. The Duke of Wellington was supported on the right by his Royal Highness Prince Albert. and on the left by his Excellency Prince Castelcicala. The Marquis of Anglesey sat on the right of Prince Albert. The Duke and Prince Albert wore the full uniform of Field-Marshals in the British army. It was remarked by all present that the Duke appeared in the enjoyment of most excellent health and spirits. The following distinguished officers constituted the party : Field Marshal his Royal Highness Prince Albert, Colonel of the Scots Fusilier Guards. And the following Waterloo officers : General his Excellency Prince Castelcicala, the Neapolitan Minister.

The Noble and Gallant DUKE next proposed the health of " His Royal Highness Prince Albert." Band—" The Coburg March." Field-Marshal his Royal Highness Prince ALBERT, in com pliment to the toast, after a brief address, concluded by giving the health of the illustrious host—" The Duke of Welling ton," which was drunk upstanding, with all honours. The Duke of WELLINGTON, in a .few words, returned thanks. Band—" The British:Grenadiers." "The Army" was then given by the DuKr. Band—" The Grenadier's March." The Noble DUKE then, in energetic language, gave as a toast—" The Cavalry that fought at Waterloo." Band—" The Albert Galop." The Marquis of ANGLESEY acknowledged the toast. The Duke of WELLrNGTON next proposed "The health of Lord Strafford and the old Guardsmen." Lord STRAFFORD and the whole of those officers attached to the several brigades of the Guards rose. His Lordship, in a short speech, returned thanks for himself and brother officers. Band—" Love not." _ _ . _ The Noble and Gallant HOST then rose, and in a few flat tering observations concluded by giving " The health of Lord Saltoun," which was drank amidst general applause. Lord SALTOUN replied, gratefully thanking the Noble Duke for the honour conferred upon him by proposing his health. Band—" The Saxe Weimar March." The Noble DUKE next proposed "The health of Colonel Macdonald," and the Gallant Colonel having replied, His Grace then gave as a toast, " Earl Cathcart and the Staff Officers." Earl CATHCART briefly acknowledged the toast. Band—" Mazagras." Sir John May's health was then proposed by the Noble Duke, and the Gallant Officer returned thanks. The Noble DUKE, in proposing the health 'of Sir James Kempt, remarked that the Gallant General had been pre vented from dining with them that day from severe indis position, and he could assure them that no one could more regret his absence than he (the Duke) did. His Grace then gave " The better health of Sir James Kempt," which toast having been duly honoured, His Royal Highness Prince Albert and the Duke made a movement to retire. It was after ten o'clock when the Noble Duke and his Royal Highness Prince Albert a djourned to another room to partake of coffee; and, en attendant, many of the gallant company departed. His Royal Highness Prince Albert, attended by M a j or _ General Sir Edward Bowater and Lord George Lennox, left at t wenty minutes past ten, the Noble and Gallant Duke ac companying his august guest to the royal carriage in wait ing in the court-yard, the military band performing the "Coburg March. All the company had left by a quarter to eleven, the Duke himself going afterwards to the Duke and Duchess of Somer set's party. PROSPECTS OF TEE GROUSE SEASON.—We learn that the grouse are in the same critical state with the crops, being, like them, dependent upon the weather of the next week or two. The birds are just now chipping the shell, and are found in hatches from eight to twelve, which, allowihg for casualties in early youth, would likely give an average number of coveys in the autumn. Everything, how ever, depends, so far as- regards the lower range of moors, upon an early fall of rain, for with the continuance of the present drought for another fortnight few birds, in such situations, would survive it. Again, on the higher range of shooting grounds—viz., at the head of Athol], Badenoch, and Lochaber, where the snow is only yet melting, abundance of springs are found all the year over for the young birds, and the supply of birds on such places will, to all appear ance, be as good as usual. The principal moors in the Perth shire Highlands, are held on leases, so that there are com paratively few changes on such ; but on the lower grounds there are some excellent shootngs in the market.—Perthshire Courier.

Bir \-$,....;:a115. - ' fir contractor, relative to the failure of portions of the ta - .. ' 4 v‘` I S.SI I h.. main line of the Ranelagh sewer in Gloucester-road; ' ' ' Paddington, and to take such steps as may be necessary with respect thereto. " REPLY.—That having executed my contract for the Ranelagh sewer, in accordance with the plans and di rections of your officers, I submit that I am not liable to reinstate the existing defects." The chair was taken at twelve o'clock, by T. L. Do naldson, Esq., who, having stated the object fol. which the Court had met i Mr:GARRARD, who appeared as the solicitor, for Mr. Bird, requested permission to make a few observations on the new matter contained in the report of Mr. Phillips, the clerk of the works. The report, which was to the following effect, was then read:— " The statements that I have made to the Court re specting the cause of the failure of the Ranelagh sewer built along Gloucester road, Paddington, having been impugned, I beg most respectfully to state that, after a careful and minute examination of the s ork of the said sewer, I am still further convinced of the accuracy of those statements, namely, that the cause orfailure is wholly in consequence of the inefficient manner in which the brickwork, in conjunction with the groundwork, has been executed. Seeing the course the question has taken, and believing my character is at stake in this affair, I beg to be allowed to state, that I am prepared to prove those assertions by facts. In excavating for this sewer, it appears that the ground was dug out somewhat wider than the sewer, including the side walls ; so that after the side or abut ment walls were built, a space of a few inches in width had to be filled in behind the walls with ground, which, if properly and soundly rammed down, would have been of sufficient solidity to have borne the lateral thrust of the arch, and the superincumbent weight of ground placed above it. The abutment walls are thrust out wards from their perpendicular position to the extent of 3 inches or more, compressing the ground filled in behind them, which was not properly and soundly ram med, otherwise its would be next to impossible for the abutments to have gone outwardi with the pressure to which they have been exposed : moreover, from the ap pearance of the ground taken out from behind the walls it has not the tenacity and solidity that ground would have that had been well and soundly rammed. " As regards the brickwork of the arch of the crown of the sewer, I beg to re-assert that it has been done in a slovenly and unworkmanlike manner ; that no respect has been shown either to properly bonding the bricks together, or in regulating the courses of bricks with equal joints of mortar ,• for between some joints there is scarcely any mortar whatever, and between others the thickness of mortar varies up to one inch or more. The, number of courses of bricks in the bottom half-brick ring of the arch are 50, and in some places there are only 49, which is three and four courses less than could and ought to have been got into the bottom ring of the arch ; therefore, there are nearly nine inches in thiek ness of mortar in excess distributed over the arch of the sewer, where bricks ought to have been used in stead. I would beg to call attention to the cir cumstance of one course of bricks being lost in the arch as before stated, a fact in itself evidenc ing a great want of attention in the execution. The bricks appear to be of good quality. The mortar used was made of Dorking lime and Thames sand, and is not so strong as I should have expected from the nature of these materials—it is in a very friable state, which I should say is caused by the admixture of more . water with the lime and sand than was requisite, and too long exposure of the lime to the air ; and, more over, from its appearance, the lime and sand has not been thoroughly mixed. In the composition of mortar no more water should be used than is sufficient to_bring it to a tough and proper consistency for using, other wise it has the effect of destroying the strength of the lime to a considerable degree ; and the lime should be used as soon as possible after it has been burnt, other wise it reabsorbs the carbonic acid, which has been driven off during the process of calcination. Mortar after being used in a wall loses a considerable quantity of its bulk from evaporation and contraction, which causes the walls to shrink and settle • in consequence of this, as little mortar as possible should be used in build ing a wall, more especially in an arch. In the arch of this sewer, such an unusual quantity of mortar has been used in the joints, and that so irregularly, that it is sufficient in itself to cause a considerable settlement, and also a very great distortion in its form. " With respect to the abutment walls, the manner in which they have been built is contrary to the contract, which says, that ' the brickwork shall be in every re. spect of the best workmanship, no four courses to rise more than twelve inches.' There are fifteen courses of bricks in the abutment instead of sixteen, as shown and described in the original drawing of the said sewer. Those fifteen courses rise three feet ten and a.half in ches, which is one and a half inch in excess over the in structions in the contract, for the like number of courses —this excess is causes by the joints of mortar being too large. " The average width of the sewer between the abut ment walls as built perpendicularly on the invert is ten feet three inches, being three inches wider than that shown in the original drawing of the said sewer. Then the springing walls being only three feet ten and half inches high, it was necessary to elevate the centre one and half inch above the springing walls, for the purpose of keeping the requisite height from the tep of the cen tre of the invert to the under side of the arch, and in con sequence of the inoveased width, and the one half inch _ : 'e - net o — n e: =. te rink s ; walls, the aich_lina I. length . rkh turrunt one and half inch below what it would have been had th e walls been carried up to their intended height. " This one and half inch added to the versed sine of the arch in the original drawing, which is two feet ten inches, will make the versed sine of the arch as built two feet eleven and half inches. Then taking the chord line of the arch at twelve feet three inches, and the versed sine at two feet eleven inches, I find the length of the arch line is twelve feet four inches and four-tenths, which divided by fifty-three courses of bricks, gives two inches and eight-tenths for each course, including the joint of mortar ; then for eight courses there - would be one foot ten inches and four-tenths, and having measured eight of the bricks taken out of the arch after being cleansed of-the mortar, I find they measure one foot nine inches and four-tenths. Therefore, taking this sewer as actually built with its increased width, fifty-three courses of bricks could have been got into the arch with ease, and then allowing ample joints for mortar, which would be a quarter of an inch in the centre of the half-brick ring. It is the usual practice in building brick arches for bridges, &c., to allow for each ring at its soffit one foot ten and half inches, to the utmost, for eight courses of bricks. " I would beg to observe, that there is one section, No. 28, which shows the side walls in a perpendicular position, the arch is gone upwards on one side, and is come down on the other, that is, at the haunches, which, I should say, is caused by the thick and unequal joints of mortar being compressed, or giving way with the weight of ground placed on the arch, as the ground could not possibly have had the effect of causing the distorted form there shown. " Therefore, taking into account the inefficielt man ner in which the groundwork was executed, namely, the neglect to properly back up the abutment walls and spandrils of the arch with ground well and soundly rammed, and also the inferior and unworkmanlike man ner in which the brickwork has been executed, more particularly in the arch, I am of opinion that the failure of the said sewer is entirely attributable to these causes." After the reading of the report, some considerable discussion took place as to whether Mr. Garrard, the solicitor of Mr. Bird, should be heard. Mr. LESLIE wanted to know what the new allega tions were that had been adverted to. Ie thought neither Mr. Garrard or Mr. Bird had any right to com plain of the course pursued by the Court. Mr. Garrard had done all he could, in a gentlemanly way, to damage Phillips, and the question was, who was right. Mr. Garrard had made a most able statement on the last Court day, and he slid not see why the Court was to hear him again. Mr. WiLeoucumr thought Mr. Bird's solicitor could not be again heard. Mr. F. BYNG was of the same opinion. Mr. HAWKES thought the Court would do great in justice if they did not hear the further evidence which Mr. Bird had to tender. After some further discussion, the Court decided upon hearing the solicitor of Mr. Bird. Mr. GARRARD then addressed the Court at some length, contending that the material assertions in the report of Phillips werel not founded in fact; that the work had been done according to the setting out of the surveyors of the Court, and that the whole course that had been adopted by Mr. Bird was following the in structions he had received from the officers of the Court. Mr. BYNG thought, after the statements that had been made, the Court could come to no decision without some grave inquiries. He thought the matter ought to go before a Jury, for the purpose of ascertaining whether what had been stated was true. He was not prepared to come to a conclusion upon the subject after what he had heard without much further inquiry. He had no interest at all in the question, but if he had it would be in favour of Mr. Bird, whom he had long known, and whom he believed to be a most excellent man. If they were to believe what had been stated by Mr. Garrard, the work had been performed according to the contract, and the statement of the clerk of the works *as without foundation. Mr. WHITE considered the question to be, whether the failure that had occurred was in consequence of the formation of the works, the badness of their construc tion, or other causes. He believed that the formation of the arch of the sewer was the cause of the whole ac cident. If he did not firmly entertain that opinion, he should be inclined to think the proper course would be to go before a jury. He could not but say that he felt they were attempting to throw upon the contractor that which belonged to themselves. Added to the bad for mation of the sewer, they had not taken care of 'the work when it was done. He was fully convinced that the accident had occurred from the formation of: the sewer. He would, therefore, move that the Court ad journ sine die.—(A laugh.) Mr. LESLIE thought that was a most proper motion to make, and would most readily second it. After some further discussion, Mr. WHITE moved, and Mr. ALLANSON seconded, a ;potion, to the effect that the defective formation of the sewer was the cause of the failure, and that the contractor was not liable. Mr. Wrenouostur moved as an amendment, " That the proceedings in this case be placed in the hands of the Solicitors of the Court." This amendment, after considerable discussion, was carried by fa majority of 8, there being 16 for the amendment, and 8 again* it: The Court then adjourned. . , Itllileettlals\t,attweheenutyse-ssix2,Leeaurrse,nareeepreequtenset3eva-hion, 7.
