The Sanitary Commissioaers say the present supply there is " wholly unfit for use, and is highly dangerous to the health of the persons who drink it." The Company has for its object the supply of pure water at con stant and high service, and has received the most cordial support from the proprietors. ratepayers, and inhabitants is general of this large district, evidenced by their numerous petitions and by the re solutions of public bodies, such as the Quarter Sessions, the District Board of Health, &c. It has Inig been known that the Wandle water is the purest of any within practicable irt stance of the Metropolis (see the public evidence taken before the Committees of the House of Carnmons.) Frost this source a minimum supply of 27,000,000 of gallons daily can be ob tained without injury to any one. The present supply of Thames water it about 9,000,000. The Company, either through the instrumentality of the existing Companies, or by parochial or other public bodies, or their own means, will be able to send " unintermittent streeuis of cool, fresh lucid water, sparkling and pure, up every court and alley, and to the very garre's of the meanest houses, at a very low rate of charge." And these essentials they can guarantee ; because, besides the ad mitted superiority of the Wandle water, which in its natural state possesses a greater " freedom from putrescible organic, matter," and from " discoloration," as well as greater " brightness, clearness, s Atness, and Looluess," than any others, this Co.i.pany's plan com prises a complete system of intercepting drainage to carry off the impurities of mills anti houses —an original and perfect method of nitration (invented by Mr. F. P. Thompson, the Engineer to the Company), to be employed in the grand reservoir itself, 160 feet above Triaity high water mark, whence it will row in uninterrupted distri , ution by mere gravity to the thousands of buildings in the istrict, in a state as cool and limpid as any well water —and lastly, because the Company apply by their Sill tor a compulsory linaltatien of profits, so that the abuse of high charges will here be an impos siOility, whilst there will be sufficient profit to afford a liberal remu neration to the shareholders. The Thames water throughout contains sulphates and chlorides of sonic sort, and the water at Dittos, besides these, is impregnated with the sewerage of Campton-court and other districtsNo am , com ount pre hending a population of three-quarters of a million. " of boiling can separate the sulphates and chlorides" —they will re main and constitute a permanent hardness. In the Wandle water there is no sulphate or chloride of any sort; but there is present the carbonate of soda, which renders it admirable for all domestic lair poses, and to such " water M. Soyer gives a preference for tea making, even over distilled water." Application for the remaining shares to be made to :Messrs. Sheppard and Sons, 28, Threadneedle-street, City, and to the Secre tary, at the 'Temporary Offices, 15, Tokenhouse-yard, Lothbury, where prospectuses and all oth WILLIAM imformation H ty be obtained.

[Owing to a press of matter the following has been omitted A few days since a numerous auditory assembled in the Egyptian-hall of the Mansion-house, to hear a lecture delivered by Mr. Charles Pearson, on his plan for improving the city of London by effecting a com munication between the centre of the City and the northern, eastern, and western lines of railway, as suggested by him in 1833, 1837, and 1845. Am angst thrse present we observed the Lord yor ; Alder men Sir.G. ,Carroll, Sir John Key, Sir J. Duke, Salornons, Wilson, FarehrOther, .11non, Lawrence, Itoorp.r, Finnis ; the Common S)rge.anr, Sheriff Cot terell, Under-Sheriff Miilard, Deputes 1-1-41-rison, Bedford, Fenning, Kebbell, Larkin, Wright, Like, Tyler, Stevens, Hicks, Stacey, Evans, Salith, Cock, Bzo. A model of the proposed improvem-nt, coversal from sight, was placed on a table before th.. chair. The LORD MAYOR said, having been requested by their friend the City Solicitor to take tha chair pro forma upon this occasion, he did so with great plea sure, believing that their friend had something to ex hibit, and wishing to give him an opportunity of fully explaining the objects of his proposed plan of improve ments. He should ba most happy to do anything in his power to advance any plan that would he for the general interest of the City, of the metropolis gene rally, and the vast and populous districts surrounding it.—(Cheers.) Having said thus much, he would beg to retire to his public duties, leaving it to the company to appoint a chairman. His Lordship then withdrew, and on the motion of Mr. DAKIN, Sir G. Carroll took the chair. Mr. PEARSON commenced by observing that he should indeed be the vainest coxcomb upon earth if he invited gentlemen to leave their business at this hour of the day to come there merely to gratify their sense of sight by looking at a model, however beau tiful it might be; but he had to explain to that as sembly a project which he believed was destined to render the most important benefits to the City, and he must pray them to give him their attention to some preliminary observations before he uncovered the model. He felt very deeply the responsibility that rested upon him for the part he had taken in this matter, and he had therefore adopted a course unusual with him in writing down some heads of his dis course, in order that they might stand on record to be brought forward for examination at some future day. He had no right to challenge the attention of the corporation of London, whose servant he was, upon a matter affecting the interest of the citizens, unless he brought before them a project which had received the closest attention, and could bear the minutest scrutiny. It was the first duty of a public officer implicitly to obey the orders of those for whom he acted, and he bad no sympathy with an indi vidual who, holding a situation under any public body, should allow himself wantonly, impertinently, or capriciously, to travel out of the strict line and rou- tine of duty devolving upon him, and diverge into other subjects with which he had no concern; but he thought he should show to the corporation, and to that assembly, that the circumstances under which he addressed them fully warranted the course he had taken. When a young man, he had been in the habit of speaking of the city of London in florid and glowing terms, as the first city of the first nation in the world, and the queen of European capitals; he would, however, now restrict himself to a common sense and commercial view of matters, and would set out with the proposition that the city of London, with an area of rather less than a square mile, contained land and buildings valued at upwards of 40,000,0001. sterling, the more limited district of " the walls within" containing about three-fourths of that amount. His second proposition was, that this enor mous property derived its principal value from the fact that the City was in the centre of the metropolis of the United Kingdom, and contained within its walls the principal national, commercial, and mone • tary establishments of the country, which are the objects of daily resort to persons of all classes, from all parts, not of the metropolis alone, but of the kingdom at large. Every one who was in the habit of traversing the streets of London would agree to his next proposition, that the omnibuses and other vehicles daily passing in the City had increased during the last few years to a seriously inconvenient extent.— (Cries of " Hear, hear. ") He believed that this increased number of vehicles might be ascribed to various causes; first, the in creased numb •r• of distant railroad termini, rendering it necessary for all City passengers to come from the stations to their places of destination in omnibuses or cabs, instead of walking, as they might do if set down at points in the centre of business ; second, the in creasing practice of merchants, traders, end others carrying on business in the City, to reside out of town, and to be daily conveyed es regularly as the flux and reflux of the tide, through the streets to and from their places of trade i • third, the establishment of railway receiving houses for goofs in several narrow hut important thoroughfares, choking up the streets, particularly at hours when the free passage of the streets was most needed for other purposes ; fourth, the increased extent of the metropolitan suburbs, whose population, numbering upwards of 2,000,000, were principally supplied with provi,ions from the City wholesale markets.—(Hear, hear.) The fifth proposition he laid down was, that these causes of the overcrowding of the streets were still in action, and progressing with accumulative force. The returns of traffic showed that the passengers by the various me tropolitan lines of railway exceeded week by week the corresponding weeks of former years. The dis position for suburban residences was daily extending itself to the humblest classes who valued comfort and health, which caused an immense increase in the number of passengers conveyed ; whilst 'the goods traffic by railroads was daily augmented as the trade of the City increased. Again, the demands of sub urban districts upon our wholesale markets were mul tiplying as the metropolitan population increased, which the census returns showed that it did at the rate of 20 per cent. in each period of ten years. Be sides the !augmented numbers of other vehicles that daily entered the City, it was an ascertained fact that, during the last twenty years, omnibuses to or through the City had increased at least 4 per cent. annually, thus swelling their numbers in a compound ratio. If the causes of increase continued undimi nished, and soma active and efficacious means were not taken to counteract their operation, what disas trous results to the City, its trade and property, might :not be predicted as certain . to be witnessed within the next cycle of twenty or forty years.— (Hear, hear.) It was true that the Thames steam boats, and the Greenwich, Croydon, and Black wall Railways, which daily brought tens of thousands of passengers into or close to the focus of business in the City, had done much to mitigate the evil, for otherwise they would have seen Londen-bridge blocked up, and some of the principal streets rendered impas sable.—(Hear, hear.) The widening of Canon street, for which the Corporation was nobly spending .500,000/. from its own funds, would give a southern line into the City, and thus diminish the crowding of Cheapside, but it would still leave Fleet-street, Ludgate-hill, Newgate-street, and the northern, eastern, and western districts of the City without any relief.---(Hear.) He fearlessly affirmed that nothing but the establishment of railway stations for the ad mission of City passengers from the North-Western, Great Western, and Northern lines, and a cheap trunk line for the accommodation of the inhabitants of the suburbs in those quarters, could stay the progress of overcrowding in the streets, which .threatened so fatally the prosperity of the City.—(Hear.) The plan he proposed was based upon this principle, and intended to secure these objects, as he would presently explain. When a member of the Corporation several years ago, he had foreseen and foretold the state of things at which we had now arrived, and had devised his present project to counteract the injurious effects he anticipated as certain to arise ; but the prejudices that then prevailed against railroads in towns pre vented its adoption. In 1845 he again brought it forward, and upwards of 2,000 of the City firms petitioned the Court of Common Council in its favour. On the 20th October of that year, the Improvement Committee, composed of the leading members of the Common Council, to whom the sub ject had been referred for consideration, passed a re solution " that in our opinion it is desirable, for the prosperity and advantage of the citizens of Lcndon, to have railway termini within the City," tnd on the 31 November the committee reported their decision to the Court of Commou Council, who were pleased to adopt the following resolutions :—" Teat this Court cloth agree with the committee in the report, and that it be an instruction to the committee to ob tain from any companies, and lay before this Court, plans, sections, elevations, and models, shwa ing the manner in which the streets, pavements, and sewers will be affected by any contemplated alteration within the limits of the City ; and that the committee do re port whether any and what arrangements have been made to prevent m onopo l y, and to secure to the public the utmost amou n t o f railroad accommodation b that I`itr can be obtained by stations in-stretet4 sistentiy with a d ue regard to the trade° and the convenience of the public. 2. That it is thw opinion of this Court that any alterations which may be approved o f ought to be carried out by or , under the direction o f a committee of this Court, so far ES the clearing of the ground and the adjustment of the streets and sewers are concerned, so that the public m be protected from unnecessary inconve good ag e roaches to the e _ nience, by obtaining t t o e n s , streetssta and by tha p t rov m id i i g n h g t fobre- re-adjustment f disturbed by the operation." At that time both the London and North-Western, and a ne w compan be formed, called the Direct Manchester to titioned to have termini in Farringdon stress, ha pee both of them abandoned the design, no doulr;t3eitf; sequence of the•ch . angel appearanc e of things. plan was re&rred t o t h e commissioners appointed to inquire into the r a il way plan. as aGeting th e c i ty of London, consisting of Lord Canning, the Earl of Dalhousie, Lord Mayor Johnson, and Sir C. F. Smith, who spoke of it as follows :—" Mr. C. Person has brought under our notice a project which it would appear has long occupied his attention, for forming a grand central terminus in Farringdon-stre e t. He recommends a trunk railway, consisting of three or four double lines, to run from Battle-bridge to his proposed grand terminus in Farringdon-street, for the use of suchtompanics as shall desire to have a terminus in the centre of the City, and shall be inclined to contri • bute fairly to its formation. lie would carry the line of railway between two rows of houses he proposes to build, so as to form a wide handsome street, one hundred feet wide and eight thousand six hundred feet in length; the railway to be arched over, so as to support the pavement of the street, and be on a level with the ground-floors of the houses," The commissioners went on to say that he (Mr. Pearson) proposed a very ingenious arrangement of the terminus, but that his plan was open to the same objection as applied to all other City !termini, and therefore not to be recommended. The reason assigned was, that railroads carried towards the focus of business ought rather to be encouraged on the southern side of the Thames, the property there being of less value, and it not being probable that any great improvements would be interfered with. This, how ever, he did not think a very sufficient or satisfactory ground, and he would appeal to the whole company if the district from Farringdon to Clerkenwell, through which he proposed to carry his line of rail and street, was not as bad as the worst rookery of the borough. —(Hear, hear.) In place of the plan he advocated, that recommended by Sir Willoughby Gordon, on the ground of its being necessary for the concentra tion of troops in case of invasion, for a line connecting the North-Western Railway with the West India Docks, which he (Mr. Pearson) called the leave -out London line, was adopted and carried out. The events which had occurred since 1845 had strength• ened the conviction he before entertained of the practicability, utility, and profitable character of the unnertakiog ; and being firmly convinced that the Improvements Committee and the Corporation were right in adopting the resolutions he had quoted, he had watched for the first favourable opportunity of bringing the plan again under consideration. He had had plans and models prepared for its illustration at his own cost and charges, and disclaimed any per sonal object in the matter beyond the wish to dis charge his duty to the Corporation, and to promote the interests of his fellow-citizens.--(Cheers.) He had likewise taken care to have all the surveys and designs ready for an application to Parliament in the approaching session, and if the Corporation felt now as they felt in 1845, he made no doubt they would be successful, and that the project would be taken up by the public, and carried into execution, even if the railway companies pri nc ip a ll y i n t eres t e d in obtaining the advantages it would afford should from any cause be induced to withhold their countenance or support. He was ready to abide by the report of any impartial and independent engineers and surveyors whom the Corporation might choose to investigate the merits of his plan. Let there be no monopoly to one particular company, but let a trunk line be constructed acces sible to all parties who should contribute towards the expenses of its formation aad of the alterations that would be required in the surrounding streets. Now or never was the time, for the Government had just determined on taking the construction of the new street from Farringdon to Clerkenwell, which had been left to lie unfinished for ten to fifteen years, out of the hands of the Commissioners en trusted with it, and placing it in those of the Corpo ration of London. For himself he asked no pecuniary advantage ; he was wholly and solely influenced by a desire to be useful in his day and generation, and to evince his attachment to the citizens of London, in whose service thirty-five years of his life had been spent.—(Cheers.) He would be content if, a few years after the completion of the plan, the share holders voted to himself or his representatives what ever compensation they might pronounce him to have been deserving of. The model alluded to by Mr. Pearson, and con structed under the superintendence of Mr. Stevens, architect, son of Deputy Stevens, was then uncovered. It was neatly framed in wood, exhibiting the disposi tion of the streets and buildings, and the course of the trunk line, with termini and goods receiving houses in Farringdon-street. The following is the description of it : " The model is constructed with mathematical accu racy and precision to a scale, both vertical and horizon tal, of one inch to twenty feet. " It comprehends the whole of the district extending (north and south) from Coldbath-fields Prison to Bridge street, Blackfriars; and (east and west) from Shoe-lane and Saffron-hill to the Old Bailey and Turnmill-street. The model is surrounded by a coloured map to the same scale, showing the continuation of the improvement, and its effects upon the adjacent locality from Chancery lane to Cheapside. " To effect the suggested improvement, it is proposed to occupy the valley of the Fleet from Holborn-bridge to King's-cross, by constructing branch lines for pas sengers to the City from the Great Western and the Northern Railroads, together with sidings running from the main lines, and conveying meat, poultry, roots, and vegetables (without changing carriages or traversing the streets), to wholesale markets to bo erected over the line close to the City. These markets may, by these means, bo rendered far more commodious and more easily and conveniently approachable than the great provision markets which aro about to be constructed in the centre - if the French metropolis, at a cost of above a million sterling. The plan also provides extensive receiving-houses close to the City north of Holborn. bridge, to be built over other sidings from the main lines, for loading the carriages with goods to be sent direct by rail, in substitution of the railway receiving houses in Lad-lane, Lawrence-lane, Basing-lane, the Old Bailey, and other narrow and confined thorough fares in the City, where goods are now received, un loaded, reloaded, and reconveyed through the over crowded streets and lanes in their way to the distant railway stations at Paddington, Camden-town, and King's-cross. " The plan likewise provides a great trunk line of double rails to bring omnibus passengers by rail from Paddington and the northern suburbs of the metropolis to the vicinity of Farringdon-street. This line will be so arranged that, with profit and without obstruction or inconvenience in the streets, 20,000 of the clerks, agents, small tradesmen, warehouse porters, artisans, mechanics, and others who resort daily to the City for the pur poses of trade, may be conveyed every morning and evening to and from the country, within a radius of seven miles, at a yearly charge of 31. each. " The suggested railway (as the model shows) is un like all other railways in town. With all the multitu dinous useful objects it proposes to accomplish, it is not either unsightly, dangerous, or injurious. It interrupts no thoroughfares; it intercepts no prospects; it inter feres with no drainage and no ventilation in the public streets. It does not, like the Blackwell Railway, soar above the roofs of the adjoining houses; nor does it, as at Liverpool, undermine their foundations. It will not cross other lines, as the railways now constructing in Birmingham will do, alternately overleaping each other, somrtimes mounting on a viaduct forty feet high, and sometimes quarrying into rocks thirty feet deep. It will not cross over roads as at Hampstead, or over streets as at the Minories. It will not leave filthy wastes at the sides, like the Greenwich and South-Western lines. " The proposed plan will either entirely remove all that is ugly, or place it underground and out of sig ht; it will raise all th a t i s b eautiful and render it conspi cuous. The site on w hi c h the main line is to becon structed seems to have been formed by nature and re served by man f or t h e express purpose to which it is now proposed to apply it. " The proposed project, if carried into execution, in stead of impeding will greatly facilitate all other modes of intercommunication ; it proposes to lay the several lines of railway under a new street to be constructed 100 feet wid e , an d i ntersecting the metropolis from King's cross to Holborn -bridge. It will likewise provide trans verse stree son the high level, and so unite the districts of the metropolis, east and west, which arc now sepa rated by the ravine that yawns between them. 11.• pro posed plan will raise the valley at Holborn -bridge 17 teet 6 inches, and place Holborn-hill, Snow-hill, and Skinner street upon a level plane. It will likewise re move the ob s t ruc ti o n s of Newgate-street by tak ing will away the carc ase market to a spot w be ampl e a p ace , an d where tho meat h a r n e d other ar ticles will be brought in by undergroun d where con veyance. " The plan will likewise effect an underground con nexion between the Post-office and the railway stations, by which the use of Post-office vans will be superseded, and in the space of three =putts the letter-bags may be passed to and from the station, so that half an hour at least may be daily saved in every post that arrives at or leaves London, as far as three-fourths of the United (Kingdom is concerned. 6. The model shows how Farringdon-market, which cost upwards of 200,0001., and produces nothing, may be rendered of great value, and how the site of the Fleet Prison, which has been so long unused, may be made to produce valuable ground-rents, and assist in relieving the overcrowded state of the Old Bailey and Ludgate- g w A h ll i . ch, T b h;: . :atl iyt e l xi k b,xpe e ee w rntnt i si s eou e .a : tih d ope o f : ct 7-- 1 n r ed a re t deosBfofootthureetearr at comma la eida y i t 3 :a r t at d iv ire ei c Y ti a on sm m al a l that they will admit of four times the number of pas sengers the railroads can bring bring distributed, not only without producing inconvenience to the street traffic of the City, but-actually diminishing to a very great extent the obstructions which now impede our thoroughfares. " In order to illustrate with more clearness and preci sion than could be otherwise dono the effect which railway traffic has upon the crdinary transit of vehicles and foot passengers through the public streets, the carriage roads and pavements, shown on the model, exhibit numerous carriage and foot passenge•s, made precisely to scale, and arranged in point of numbers by a table prepared from the reports of traffic tables at all the metropolitan railway stations." Mr. PEARSON dwelt nt corniderable length on the principal featur, s of the model, pointing out the ad vantages in the public economy of London which would follow from the removal Newgste market, the erection of meat and rev-table matkets inure than four times ns exteneivo, the pro‘i , ling passenger :ta tions and goods receiving houtes on the most exten eive scale, un I the opening up new lines of street from north to south and east to wpm', reiieving► the now choked up thorouetfares.

MR. CHARLES PEARSON'S PLAN FOR IMPROVING TUB METROPOLIS. After the reading of the minutes of the former Court, and the disposal of a few matters of a merely routine character, Mr. Woowrnonps read the following requisition : " TO THE RIGHT Heal.

We likewise request your Lordship will insert on the summons convening the meeting no tices of the specific motions it may be intended to pro pose for the consideration of the Court." The motions alluded to were as follow : "By Mr. Thomas Dakin—' To present a memorial from Mr. Charles Pearson upon the subject of the rail way terminus.' " By Mr. Deputy Ilarrison—‘ That it be referred to a Ward Committee, now to be appointed, to consider in detail the railway terminus and City improvement plan proposed by Mr. C. Pearson, in connexion with the re solution of this Court of the 3d of November, 1545, and to inquire into the desirability, practicability, and cost thereof, and to report their opinion to this Court; and that, pending the foregoing inquiry, the committee be empowered to give the necessary Parliamentary notices in the Gazette and the newspapers, to enable the Conti to act thereon in the approaching session. if, after re ceiving the report of the committee, they shall determine to do so." Mr. DAKIN, on being called upon, said that he had no doubt but that it would save time if the memorial which he had but a few minute; before received, were at once read. The memorial contained in a compressed form the various facts and argument so often reiterated by Mr. Pearson, and which have so recently been re ported in the ordinary channels of information. The memorial concluded with the following paragraphs:— " Your memorialist humbly prays your Hon. Court to refer this twitter to a committee, before whom he may be allowed to prove the foregoing facts, or such of them as may be thought important to the inquiry —your me morialist undertaking likewise to prnve that a commit tee of citiz-n+, inflie-need by public and not pecuniary considerations, are pending the inquiry, to take upon themselves to provide for all necessary proceed ings, preparatoty to the approaching session, and to keep the control thereof in th e ir own hands, ready to be deli vered over to public commissionsra or the corporation, if it shall be thought desirable to carry out the project4d improvements in the manner suggested in the I.t.ilway Commissioners' report. Your tuetnorialist likewise un dertakes to lay before any committee that may be !ap pointed by your Hon. Court, the evidence of competent, practical, professional men, to prove that the whole of the objects specified in the requisition may be accom plished, and that the neceseary works may be completed ready for action within three years from the date of their commencement, and that mot a single sewer or • street need be stopped in the progress of the works until other drains and other streets are provided to divert the sewers and accommodate the inhabitants and passengers is the several thoroughfares both by vehicles and on foot. Your memorialist further undertakes to prove by satisfactory testimony, that if the railroad companies principally interested shall be willing to lease the pro jected lines and stations at moderate tolls (far less than the sums now paid by City passengers to their distant stations by the ordinary modes of conveyance), a fund may be raised from this source and trom ground rents of surplus ground more than sufficient to defray the entire cost cf constructing the railroad and stations and re adjusting the adjacent street; and that if the existing railroad companies shall wholly or partially reject such a proposal, a company may he formed to exe cute the truuk line to the northern suburbs of London, which by means of low fares and constant trains, will amply repay for the outlay of the required capital, if aided out of public funds with means to defray the cost of raising Holborn valley, and improving the streets to an extent commensurate with the advantages the public will de rive from the accommodation." Mr. Alderman SIDNEY said he wished to ask whe ther he rightly understood the Solicitor that there was some company formed prepared to carry the undertaking into execution if approved by the Court ? He also desired to know what was the estimated cost ? The CITY Souciron replied—He assured the Court, upon his honour, that there had been no com pany communication with a n y o f the and that existing be h companies. n He had deemed it his duty, as an officer of the Cor poration, carefully to abstain from implicating himself or the undertaking with any company or individual as a pecuniary speculation. He was also anxious that the Corporation should equally abstain from doing any act which might wear the appearance of pledging itself to any course of action until the committee to whom it might be referred should have time and op portunity to examine and report upon the whole measure. As to the expense he would answer the Honourable Alderman's question with equal frank ness. He had some years since employed surveyors of character and experience to estimate the cost and the returns. They had surveyed, measured, and valued every property in the line, and they reported the .s probable amount of the balance of cost after te at ia l oo of the groundrents from the surplus ground small They awseuremofthaotpihneionwatlaatlmsoosot,oosacr wcedroeutdolidts forbt g l e te tb it i suf ficient to defray the cost after taking.. si t ar.

Alr. Deputy Harrison then proceeded to defend the City Solicitor from the attacks of some members of the Court, who had considered he had no right to in terfere with matters not immediately connected with his own department, when after a powerful appeal he moved " the matter be referred to a ward committee, and that the said eominittt-e give the necessary Parlia mentary notices, &e." Mr. W. A. ROSE seconded the motion. Alderman SYDNEY rote to propose that all the words after the first p aragrap h w hi c h h a d re f ere nce to the committee, " being empowered to giv: the necessary Parliamentary notices in the Gazette and n ewspaper:," should be omitted. The worthy alderman gave the Soliciter every credit for his skill, while be considered that the plan was deserving of every praise, still he thought it right to ask the Court to pause before they agreed to go toe far, as they might perhaps be doing much more than their municipal duty.—(Hear.)
