The selected members were Mr. Ward, Mr. Gisborne, and Mr. M'Geachy. The Corporation, the Highway Commissioners, the Liverpool and Barrington Water Company, and the Commissioners of Toxteth - -park, were respectively represented by counsel. The Sanatory Re gulations Bill was first discussed. A petition was pre sented against it from the Toxteth-park Commissioners, and another from the Abattoir Company. Mr. Austin stated the case for the Corporation. Mr. Serjeant Tal ford, for the Highway Commissioners, said his clients had prepared two bills, with a view of effecting some of the principal objects proposed by the present bill, but having 6y a recent public meeting ascertained the feeling of the inhabitants, they would not persist in their own bills, on the understanding that a clause should be introduced in demnifying them for all expenses, in which case he should cffer no opposition. Mr. Rushton, the magistrate, gave evidence showing the necessity for the municipal regula tions which the bill provides. This bill, so far as be knew, had been prepared in entire conformity with the recommendations of the sanatory commissioners, as far as they were applicable to Liverpool, with such modifications as local circumstances rendered necessary. No important regulation was omitted for the cleanliness and health of the town, and it was inconvenient that the duties thereto appertaining should be confided to different bodies. What was elicited from Mr. Rushton in cross-examination tended to confirm his evidence in chief. Mr. J. Lawrence and Mr. H. G. Harbord were examined at great length.—Ori Wednesday, the inquiry was resumed, the Chairman con- _ fining it to the question of jurisdiction between the Town Council and the Toxteth Commissioners, excluding for the present the question of the Water Works Company. Mr. ArobroFe Lace was called on behalf of the promoters, and concurred with Mr. Rushl effects of a divided jurisdiction MISCELLANEOUS LARGE SALMON.—A salmon, the largest caught this season in the Tay, weighing 431 lbs., was taken at Black ing station, last week. This fishing is rented by Mr. Young, Watergate, who had £4 75., remitted to him from his agent in London for this fine fish, being 2s. per lb., or 10d more than the market price. —Perthshire Courier MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.—A few days ago, whilst was employed in repairing the ceiling of the Presto, theatre immediately in front of the gallery, from which _ was projecting a bar of iron, a portion of the scaffolding gave way, and he was immediately precipitated into the pit, falling with his head downwards. During the fall his head came in contact with the bar of iron in front of the gallery, which it broke, and also in the pit the poor fellow's head again struck upon and went through a temporary wooden step in front of the centre box ; but, fortunately, he was not hurt beyond a few bruises, and is now at work again.

VEGF TATsLE HISTORY.—About 1595, we find entered in the household book of the Cliffords, kept at Skipton Castle York, a sum of eleven shillings " for six cabbages and some caret roots bought at Hull." These were then imported from Flanders. whence even Queen Catherine, in the reign of Henry VIII., had her salads. Potatoes and turnips, so far from being a field crop, were not ge nPrally known even to the gardener until the reign of Eli zabeth. A CASE PUT.—Let us put a case. Let us suppose a most mild and benevolent Roman Catholic clergyman in the north of Ireland savagely murdered ; let us suppose him a person who had never interfered in politics, so as to draw down upon himself any marked displeasure, and who had given of his substance indiscriminately to all who were in want ; let us suppose the miscreant Orangeman, by whom he was waylaid when on a mission of charity, arrested ; let us suppose the charge proved against him, so that no human being could entertain a doubt of his guilt; let us suppose that the jury, nevertheless, upon some point which does not touch the merits of the case, acquit the prisoner ; let us suppose that upon his enlarge ment he is surrounded by exulting friends, and that lifting his arm with fiendish joy, he exclaims, " there's the hand that done the job ;" let us suppose this ruffian returning to his native vilbrge, all inhabited by brother Orangemen, and that this village is illuminated at his approach, as if to celebrate this triumph over law, as well as to hail the liberation of their associate, who was acquitted by a mockery of justice; let us suppose all this taking plan in the north of Ireland, and the actors orangetnen :k, won— spect to Blau nitary p eventually agreed that the provisions of the old act Geo. 111., should be revived, so that no person be alto, licenses After Abattoir Company ; and also, that for retail pur )oses, the Corporation should have power to gran Is under the provisions of the Improvement Ac leciding that ,the wholarcase, both as affecting the Corp ration and the Water Company, should be giine into next day, the committee adjourned, having passed all but the Abattoir Company and water clauses. On Friday, the discussion took place on the question of the additional supply of Water. The members of the committee pre sent were Mr. Ward, Mr. Gitborne, and Mr. Rice Clay ton, from the selected list; from the South Lancashire list, Lord Sandon. Sir H. Douglas, Mr. Cornwall Legh, Sir P. Egerton, Mr. Tollemache, Mr. Ireland Blackburn, and Mr. Entwisle. The bill of the Liverpool and Har rington Water Company was brought up by Viscount Sandon and Sir H. Douglas. By the title, it purported to be a bill to amend the two acts of Geo. IV. for sup- plying the town with water. The company wer rented by three counsel, and the Corporation had also en gaged three counsel, only one of whom appeared, (Mr. Austin,) and that just before the committee ruse. Mr. Sergean't Wrangliam spoke Water Company, contended carat they had been misr , presented, and that the opposition to their bill had from misapprehension of the state of the law, and of the *ghts of the company. He related what had existing ri, taken ;lace with regard to the water legislation at Liver pool, but we are not provided with any report of the ad dress. At the close of his speech, and before the evi dence was taken, the committee suggested the propriety of a compromise being entered into between the cuntend- agreed upon, in order to afford time for consultation to take place, and the compromise, if possible, to be effected. The Birkenhead Improvement Bill was read a third time and passed, in the House of Commons, on Friday. A beautiful brigantine vessel, purchased by a company in this town, and intended for the West India trade, was launched on Monday at Plymouth. RAPID INCREASE OF MANCHESTER.—From a report, prepared by the chief constable. and read by Alderman Kay, at n recent meeting of the Town Council, it appears that since the census was taken in 1811, there has been a clear addition of 59,770 souls to the population of the borough, being mare than the increase from 1831 to 1841, which was 53,373. The entire population is now reckoned at 295,277. • NAVIGATION OF THE MENAI.-lt appears that many perilous obstructions exist in the bed of this river, and that ap placation is about to be made to government f the onrpose of removing them The North Wol, nice says :—" Had it - pleased heaven to bestow upon Wales a man like Cobden or O'Connell, better luck would attend our supplications; but a voice from Wales was rarely or never heard in the senate, and there being no agitator to bully the minister into compliance, the minis ter buttons up the public purse. This is exactly the po sition of the principality. Gainsay it who can ?"—Welsh Paper. [Why not fill up the straits at the narrowest part, and thus join Anglesea to the main land? No more money would be required than would be necessary to re- move these " perilous obstructions ;" in fact, of what use is the navigation of the Straits at all, when the Irish Channel answers the same purpose ? This done, the Holyhead Railway Company need no longer bother their heads about a bridge, as Anglesea would then be part of the main land, and enable them to cross with their line.] THE LOST FouNn.—ln November last several vessels sailed from Canada for this and other ports. The lapse of months bringing no tidings of their fste, the crews were at length considered amongst the dead, the ships amongst the wrecked. Such, and so unfortunate, appetired to h;ve been their fate. On Tuesday last, kwever, one of these long-lost vessels suddenly entered the river, after having is port in November Ins rienced in the Gulf of St. Lawrence very severe gales; and, at length, on the 12th December, after havine been on shore and discharged part of 'ber cargo, put into St. George's Bay, on the west coast of Newfoundlard. There she found a vessel named the Athole, also from Montreal, and there the two vessels wintered, sailing together for their proper destination, on the 22d ult. Of the remain- ing missing vessels we kern that three. the William Tion nington, from Quebec fur London ; the Suir, from Que bec for Llanelly ; and the British Union, were wrecked in that the crews of the two former vessels were saved : the crew of the British Union was far from experiencing the same happy fortune. APPREHENSION OF THE CELEBRATED HENRY NORMAN.—On Wednesday, much curiosity was excited in the Police -court, owing- to the examination of a man who gave his narriepeorge_Blake, but whose real narce it confession" in a letter sent to his late employer in London, lately went the round of the papers. He was apprehended here on Tuesday, at the instance of a man named Daniel ton as to the injurious I. He expressed strong opinions in favour of the bill. Mr. J. B civil engineer, gave evidence in favour of the drainage Wilhail. under one management, for the sake of economy Mr. Macauley was then heard for the. Commissioners of Toxteth, and entered into statistics of the sewatege they had accomplished. They wished for further powers to carry on the improvements, and the inhabitants were in favour of those powers being granted. It would be in jurious to the rural portion of the township especially i those powers were denied them, rates would be equivalent to SJ. penses as much more. Several other as otherwise the loss it n the pound , and in ex evidence in the same bellaY. This closed the Toxieth Commissioners' case. Mr. John Stewart b-ing called, stated that the sewerage proposed by the Corporation pro and con, and the Chairman (the room ha viously been cleared) said, " It is the unanimou of the committee that the preamble of this bill is in adjourned.

Stanley, of tionton, out of compliment to the kindness and urbanity always displayed by him, gave the worthy baronet a dinner, at the Monk's Ferry Hotel, Bir kenhead. The " meet" was truly splendid. Upwards of one hundred of the gentry of this neighbourhood and the hundred of Wirral were present, and with very few ex ceptions, which rather tended to give relief to the scene, all were attired in scarlet. The dinner was provided in Mr. Hilliar's best style, and for profusion and excellence has never been excelled, if.ever equalled. It was served up in the most admirable, scientific, and orderly manner, calculated to conviuze one that steam, which tends to produce regularity in all our motions, had intruded itself even into the department over which the jolly god presides. The wines, too, were first-rate. The chair was taken at seven o'clock, by Hardman Earle, Esq. On his right sat the worthy guest, Sir Wm. Stanley, Bart., and Charles Stanley, Esq. ; on his left, John Stanley, EFei. The vice-chairs were filled by John Laird and -D. Neilson, -sqrs• , E • and amongst the company • • the occasion,) Mi c h ae l Humble, Wm. Hind, Frederick Lyons, and Joseph Dawson, &qrs., and Colonel Talto, (stewards,) under whose management the company were so placed, that not the slightest confusion took place, and the evening ccsia enpni merely social party.

Would that he were gifted with eloquence, or that he had the command of words to ex- press in proper language the feelings that he then pos sessed. (A pplause ) The sumptuous entertainment they had that evening given him was wholly unexpected, and he felt happy to find that during the four years he had been roaster of the hounds his conduct had met with their approbation. (Continued applause.) And so long as he continued to keep the hounds he should be happy to see his friends from both sides of the Mersey attending the ny trouble he might have taken in the management of the hounds would have proved perfectly useleis had he not been supported by the landell proprietors of the hundred of 'Wirral. (Loud cheers.) To those gentlemen, they in common with him self owed a deep debt of gratitude. (Continued cheers.) It was impossible to name one v, ho more than another - 1 tr grati . hcation in this respect. The worthy baronet then went on to compliment Mr. E.

He begged to propnee the health of the Chairman, with many thanks to him for the manner in which he had proposed his (Sir William's) health, and he assured him that the day was far dis•ant when he should forget the gratifying proceed ings of that evening. The toast was drank with three times three. The CHAIRMAN said, before he proceeded to return thanks for the handsome manner in which they had drank his health, he begged to explain bow he came to be placed in the position he was--a situation which he did not feel himself entitled to fill. An excellent friend of his, a true sportsman, Colonel Glegg, had promised to preside over them, but a severe and unexpected attack of indis position, though he (the Chairman) honed it would not prove of long duration, had prevented him. (Hear, hear.) No one regretted the absence of the gallant colonel more than he (the Chairman,) for he felt be had not sufficient etfanditim trs ev;vo *hot .4r.>„, _ con4limint paid to him, the Chairman concluded by pro posing the better health of Colonel Glegg, which was drank with great enthusiasm.

It was extremely difficult to ll parties but on the present occasion they an seemed unanimous. The present year was now over, but he could give promise of many foxes for that which was to come, and they had a pack of hounds which was likely them 'good sport.
