And be it enacted, that any member of the said board, or any person having an order for that purpose under the hands of two members of the said board, may inspect any county rate made cr to be made leer any county any part of which shall be situate, within the metropolitan burial district, and may also inspect any returns concerning all or any of the parishes, townships, precincts, and places, whether parochial or extra•peto ehial, in the said district, delivered or to deli vered in pursuance of any of the Attu re lating to county rats, and may take copies or extracts from any such rates or returns without payment of any fee or reward; and if any person having the custody of any such rate or return shall wilfully neglect or refuse to permit any tech member or other person to inspect the same, or to take copies or extracts from the same, within two days after such order shall have been produced and shown to him, or a copy thereof left at his usual place of abcide, he shall for every such offence, on summary conviction thereof before two justices of the peace be liable to a penalty not exceeding ten pounds. LIIL And whereas it is expedient to provide for those precincts and places in the m-tropolitan burial district in which no rate is made for the relief of the poor, or in which property may be deemed not to be rateable thereto: be it therefore enacted, that the respective inhabitants and occupiers of all messuages, lands, tenements, and hereditaments in any precinct or place, whether paro chial or extra-parochial, in the metropolitan burying dis trict, although such messuages, lands, tenements, and hereditaments may not be rated to the relief of the poor, or may- be deemed not to be rateable thereto, shall nevertheless be liable to contribute under this Act as if the property so inhabited or occupied were rateable 'and rated to the relief of the poor; and the said board may from time to time, by warrant under their seal, appoint a proper person to lc au assessor, for the purpose of assessing the full and fair annual value of such property, and rating the same to a rate to be levied under this Act; provided always, that the sum to be so levied shall not exceed in the whole in any one year the rate of one penny in the pound on the full and fair annual value of such property; and such assessor shall, within forty days after the delivery to him of the warrant of his appoint ment, make, sign, and return to the said board an assess ment for the precinct or place named in such warrant; and the assessment shall be fairly write n in a book, and shall specify, in different columns, the names of the re spective inhabitants or occupiers of all messuages, lands, tenements, and . hereditaments, the full and fair annual value a the same, and the amount of rate charged on the inhabitants or occupiers thereof, and, when the pre mises shall be unoccupied, the full and fair annual value thereof to !et; and every such assessor shall be allowed fur his trouble and expenses such remuneration as the said board, with the approbation of the Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasary, shall direct, and the same shall be paid out of the amount of the rate which shall be collected after such assessment.

And be it enacted, that when such assess ment shall have been allowed by the said board, public notice of such assessment, and of the place where the same may be inspected, shall be given by fixing such notice on the door of the church or chapel or some other conspicuous part of the precinct or place to which such assessment shall relate, upon the Sunday next-or next but one after the same shall have been so allowed ; and any person in whose custody such assess ment may be shall permit every inhabitant or occupier of property included in such assessment to inspect the same, and to make any extracts therefrom, without payment of any fee or reward ; and if such person shall wilfully neglect or refuse to permit any such inhabitant or occu pier to inspect such assessment, or to make any extract therefrom, he shall for every such offence, on summary conviction thereof before two justices of the peace, be liable to a penalty not exceeding five pounds. LV. And be is enacted, that the said board shall from time to time nominate one or more persons for levying the amount of rate charged in every such assessment, who shall proceed in the same manner, and shall have the same powers, remedies, and privileges, and shall be subject to the same regulations and penalties with re ference to the levying of such rate, as if he or they were an overseer or overseers of the poor in a precinct or place rated to the relief of the poor, and shall pay over the amount of such rate to the treasurer of the said board, or in default thereof shall be proceeded against in the same manner as overseers are by this Act to be pro ceeded against for non-payment.

That this committee views with alarm the semi official proposition in the Times of the 2tla instant, to aban don the Ten Hours Act, and to increase the duration of fac tory labour to sixty hours per week. 2. That the Ten Hours Act was necessary to shield women and children from an excess of labour which was demoralising, cruel, and de structive ; and not passed till the fact of its necessity was fully established, after years of agitation and petitioning on the part of the people, and the most deliberate and cautious inquiry on the part of the Legislature. 3. That the people now require that the law shall be made to be in legal effect that which it is in fact and in spirit ; and that any attempt on the part of the Legislature to make the ne cessary correction of their own inaccuracy the excuse for in flicting upon women and children an addition to their period of daily toil, would be a breach of faith so monstrous as to destroy all confidence in Parliament. 4. That this com mittee, knowing that the people will unanimously scout any such insidious proposition, as they have done before, and having reason to fear that vigorous efforts, and some, per haps, of scarcely a creditable character, will be resorted to in order to deprive the factory workers of their hard-earned protection, deem it right that the district committee should be put upon their guard, in order that the people may be prepared to meet and resist the attempt, whether it come from declared opponents or pretended friends. ALARMING CONFLAGRATION.—Yesterday morning, shortly before three o'clock, a fire broke out in Foster-la , e, Cheapside, immediately behind the General Post-office, which was attended with a great destruction of proper and serious if not fatal consequences to several persons. The premises in which the fire began were in the occupancy of Mrs. Elizabeth Matt, licensed victualler, and were well known as the Fountain Tavern and railway parcel-office. The whole formed two spacious houses, the lower part being intersected by a narrow passage termed Priest's Court. One of the City policemen on duty in the neighbourhood, whilst going his rounds, perceived flames raging on the second floor. He sprang his rattle and sent to the proper quarters for as sistance. After considerable trouble he succeeded in arous ing a young midshipman named Russell, who was sleeping in the tavern. The midshipman, upon getting out of his room, found the lower part of the staircase in flames ; but having succeeded in arousing the other inmates he eventu ally managed to effect a safe retreat. One of the women servants succeeded in getting upon the roof of the house, where she remained screaming for some time until the Royal Society's tire escape came down. Ihe waiter, a young man named Francis Baker, was obliged to rush through the flames; his night clothes became ignite.l, and he was so dreadfully burnt that he was taken to St. Bar tholomew's Hospital, where he at present remains in a very precarions condition. Frederick Sutton, a son of the pro prietor, was obliged also to rush through the flames. by which his feet and face were severely burnt. Mr. Sutton, the ma nager of the property, his daughter, a fine young woman, and his son William were all three extricated by the con ductor of the Royal Society's escape, as well as one of the servants. They were, however, much burnt. Plenty of w ater having been procured the firemen set to work, but it was not until the first, second, and third floors were burnt out, and the roof partially destroyed, that the fire could be extinguished. The total damage is considerable.
