TIIE WEATHER AND THE CROPS.

The first day of spr;rig is at hand, and yet the
earth is 'towered with snow. The i...onth of February
was characterised by its particularly mild weather,
and March came in not like • lion, though its
favourite east wind prevailed through the firm eight
or nine days. Daring the past week, however,
there have been in various parts falls of snow to the
depth of several inches,and the country now wears all
the appearance of an old-fashioned severe winter at
Christmas. The snow which fell during the latter
part of last week appears to have been general, and
in the western district' to have been very heavy.
As the bushel of March dust is now above price, we
sincerely hope thatthe present almost unprecedented
weather will quickly pass away, and that we shall
have drying • ,lads, although they come from the
biting east, so that the husbandman will be able, in
good season, to get in the lentil., the barley, and
the spring wheat It will be in the recollection of
many of our readers that last year the barley sowing
was unusually late, which carved tog harvest to be
late ton, much to the damage of many good crops.
We hope that we shall shortly see • favourable con-
treat to the present weather, and that the spring so
Mose at band will he genial and productive. The
early planted potatoes are cat off and injured very

THE PORTLAND ()RANT MONEY.

We now place before our reefers IS /ropy of 11.
grant of Her M +arty Q seen Viutoria to the inha•
bitants of Portland—the -teed now in operation, and
the true intent of which is • galantine now provoking
oonsiderahle inquiry in the island. It wil be seen
that the amount of the grant .9.1. per ton for stone
taken from the common lands, end 31. per ton for
that rebind not of the "Queen's coarrieri," save, in
both oases, for the stone used by the Crown. The
appointment of Captain Manning aa trustee for the
inliabitents in clearly set forth. A Court was held
August 26, 1841, for the nomination by the tenants
of the m mot of a trustee for the island. Prior to
thm meeting, it will be recollected by a.m.., Captain
Mantling issued • circular to the Mutants of the
manor soliciting the honour of being their trustee in
this matter of the Grant Money, sod at the Court
they indiosted their sense of his honnurable charac-
ter by choosing him unanimously. On the part of
the Crown Mr. Thomas Heath, of Primly ?anis
Castle, and the Rey. David Hogartb, Rector of
Portland, were appointed to act jointly with Captain
Manning aa trustees, and to them the grant money
was to be paid. and actually wim paid, "is trust.

bone,* c/ the inhabitants for the rinse being." Now
it will be observed that the active duties of the
trusters are not defined : they are to receive the
mon y in trust, but who is to erpend I 1 The
cpieet.on seems to turn on the point whether they are
truiPtes after the m trustees of an estate

Cr. trustee* as are the gentlemen holding that
office for friendly and other societies, and who
simply receive the money, invest it to the beet
advantage, and disburse it by the direction of a
oominlitee. A solution appears rather difficult,
but a help to that end may be afforded by the
surrounding circumstances. At the manor Court
in 1841, as we are informed, a committee of ten
was appointed to order the disposal of the Great
Mousy, and did so eat for two or three years. It
then occurred that the Trustees, saith our informant,
began to expend the money without the sanction
of the Committee, whereupon ea • sub.eommittee
of four, viz., Mr. J. Mabel, Mr. B. Bcriven, Mr.
B. Pearce. and Mr. J. Stone, was app .inted to go to
Captain Manning, the chosen trustee of the inhabi-
tant., and ask for an explanation. The selected
four accordingly went to the Castle, and bad en
interview with Captain Manning, but their object
wee fruitlese—explanation was refuoid. The coop
mates thus finding their maimpation gone, ceased to
meet, and from that time to the present the whole
management of the Grant Money has been in the
bands of the trustees. Having thus traced, to the
beet of oar knowledge, the history of the grant,
we will quote the deed now in operation :

To the Editor.

Sir,—Having noticed the remarks signed by
"Observer" in a late edition of your paper, as to the
bad state of the water in our parish, I can only say that
I am pleased the matter has been brought before the
public and in such terms u should command attention. I
should hays written to your columns before, as I thing
It is quite time that something should be done with the
object of giving us wholesome water, that great desider•
turn and promoter of good health, more especially at
this trying season of the year, when everything that is
pure should be sought after and obtained as any mice.
However, if not soon remedied there will be only one
course left open to us. By the insertion of these few
remarks in your widely circulated journal, you will
oblige A RATEPAYER.

THR NEW ROAD ON TH2 SOUTH WALL

Som conversation took Once on the recommendation
of the Finance Committee to pay several hills, which
included an item of about £5 for placing railings on the
south walk, Mr. Vernon'queetioning by whom authority
the work was done, and complaining that the intention
of preserving the road as a private road wee not met,
because the rail across the road at Mr. Bishop's stables
was at the end of the building (no that there was lioCes
to the door, which the Toler:Klerk said amid not open
on to the walk., and consequently sliding doom were
provided) instead of by the coach gates, while the posts
at the bottom of the road were altogether removed, and
railings were unnecessarily placed between the tree+ on
the side of the road. It was elicited that • committee
gave the order on viewing the Wollaston-field road, and
It was said there was' neeemity for rails between the
trees because Mr. Bishop'. man had ridden along that
road, and finding • nil there had °raced the walks.
Alderman Galpin said that 20 years ago he pot the
railing at the bottom of the new road by the direction
of the Council, and received instructions to provide for
the admittance of waggons, end es to the position of the
new bar, via., at the end of the building, be always
understood that was to be the plane by agreement with
Mr. Manfield for be relinquishment of the bank Minnie
the road. 'The Town Clerk was of opinion MAI/dr.
Maafield only had a right of aooess by the first door, but
I there was nothing to prevent him opening a door where

TIIIDIRS VO/A HAULING OHM/IL.
According to the resolution at the last meeting,
tenders had been invited for 'tattling grovel for six
months from the bill and the beach, to the respective
diotriots defined at the lost meeting embracing the
whole of the island—five districts on the hill, and two
helow the hill. Tenders from W. White, Jour.,
R. H. Hine, A. A. Praise, H. Hodder. A. W. Otter,
R. Redd, for hauling to the whole of districts were reed
by the clerk, when on comparing the respective amoonto
It appearei thot the tender from Kr. R. H. Hine was
the lowest The amounts tendered being as follows at
per yard :—No. I District it 20. 34. : No. 2,2 r. 3d.;
No. 3, to. 6d.; No. 4.2*. 4‘l.•' No. 11. &I. (top hill
diotricts.) and No. 6, Is. 3d. ; No. 7, Is. 4.4. (under hill
districts.)
Mr. W. White ma& an objection to the tenders
being opened before the meeting had properly began, and
he did not think mob • proeerding was right.
Mr. R. B. &riven imagined that the benders had
merely been opened to save time.
The Chairman coincided with this view, but it was
understood that in future it would be best to allow
the meetings to be formally opened before the seals
of the tenders were broken.
_ _

Mr. R. Pearce proposed, and Mr. R. Pearce seeonded,
that the tender of Mr. R. R. Hine be sooeided on the
eondition, that he produce • bondsman in the suin of
EIO as • surety that the work tendered for would be
duly carried out.

There being no amendment, the propoaition was
carried.

given to the notioe inviting tenders. Mr. A. Scrieen
remarked that belted not seen • single handbill although
he had been all over the island, and he should propose

Till 101:11DAST COMMISSION.
The Mayor atated that application had been made by
Boundary Commissioners for thanes of the Town-hall
to hold their sitting., and he bad given them P.rwiaaion,
believing that would be the wish 14 the Council.
Alderman Galpin proposed. " That it is the opinion
of this C,onnoil that the parliamentary boundaries of
this borough should be co-extensiee with the boundaries
of the several parishes at present in the borough."
, This would include the whole of Fordingtoo and Holy
, Trinity •nd Frome Whitfield. He added, that a copy
of the resolution be forwarded to the Boundary Con.
rotasioners. He reminded the Council that the que.tinn
of redistribution would °owe up another day, when it
might be advantageous if the borough was a little
larger and Do became more import.nt. He thought it
desirable that the borough should be extended as
possible, so as to be free from all local influence.
Dr. Aldndge said he r bould be happy to second the
motion. He considered it • very important ntuestian,
and one that should not be 101 l light of.
The motion was carried unanimously.

THE HOLY TRINITY CFIURCH,IDORC'HESTER:
COMPETITION.

To Mt Editor.

81r,—The plans submitted by Torten@ "Eminent
Architeeta" in reply to tbe public appeal of the gentle-
men forming the commi tee for rebuilding the above
church, have all been rejected a* rossuitable to their
views (not their instructions), and a fresh advertisement
for further plans has been issued, offering a larger
premium for the best design, and also materially '
altering their instructions as to the accommodation
required for the congregation, which will no doubt
render the site more available for the structure. This
result of the first competition is scarcely satisfactory to
the "emicent arehitecte" who joined in it, and I should
think will serve as a warning to them and to others not
again to risk their time and money in a second trial,
although the possible prise offered is 00. I say
"Possible pries" because the paltry sum of £25 held out
as • premium on the former oesasion for the best plan
submitted, with the reservation that the committee
would not guarantee their acceptance of any plan, or
even to employ the author of the plan accepted as
their architect, I seals repeated in the second advertise-
ment. Arshitecits of the present day, I fear, feel little
respect for themselves or their profession, when they
consent to compete on terms such as regulate the
acceptance or rejection of contracts of supply to parish
unions, &a., and I grieve to find that • committee of
"influential gentlemen" should so little appreciate the
ability of those "eminent architects" as to plain them in
such • category as the foregoing, wherein the exercise
of study end professional skill is not requisite. The
competitors in the first instance, judging from the
drawings submitted in most of their designs, did not
vitae the trumpery prise of E 25 offered as their reward,
nor did they weigh the possibility of a committee of
gentlemen screening themselves from awarding Bush
pries under such • paltry reservation as they have
availed themselves of, especially in those designs where
the plans were really ernsuged to suite the difficulties of
the site, and in aceordance with the instructions :
further, such competitors did not expect their plan was
to serve, in the first place, only as mare "data" to show
the ineapability of the site and the instructions issued,
on which the committee would, re,jeeting all these plans,
bens notice, for a almond competition, revising their own
arrows, ideas, without fee or reward to any. The
Um soil fair owns would be lot the eoacollee to select

a sedan number of sutda designs as wetw most suitable,
issue fresh instrustions to their authors, and thus limit
the competition. in the end awarding the £5O premium
to the suooessful architect for his extra trouble only, and
guaranteeing to him the supervision of his own work
when executed. hope the committee may yet reflect
on their ereent court. awl do an act of joatice to
these first compel itorA without fear or undue favour.—l
ow, sir, yours faithfully,
