building would be opened.—The report of the

prepared and forwaided by the Clerk. The reply,
Corwarded to the Rural Sanitary Authority at Drott-
cich stated that the Urban Sanitary Authority
visited the sewage farm on the sth inst. and made
4 thorough inspection of it, and they came to the
conclusion that Dr. Swete's report with regard to
overflooding of the land in the rear of the cottages
at Newtown did not appear to be sustained on ex-
amining the giound.—Mr. Hervey a ated that they
proposed to have the Cattle Market open for sale
