saw the Town Clerk, who intimated that there was
not sufficieut tine for a Council meeting that week.,
awl a committee meeting was held, when the letter
being laid before them. it was unanimously ag'reed
that the epplication could not be entertained, and
the Two Clerk was therefore instructed to reply to
Meant And declining the ogee—Mr. Bettaapplied
to the Council to grant him space for making a
timber pound in the Backwater, upon henna which
would be advantageous to them. —The application
was refused.—Tenders were invited for making an
opening to the cellars from the eviler° of the Market-
home, as at the present time the entrance from
the outside is rather unsafe.- -The Waimea con-
necMtl with the Local Board of Health wee of a mis-
cellaneous nature, and principally confined to
examining and signing bills, and receiving tenches
for rela)ing drains, in Spring Gardens Weer, and
Spring Gardens East. For the former the four
following tenders were sent in : John ?Atwell,

He thought it was admitted on all hands that the
time had now come when "owe great .mproveinent
iii the drainage of the town was needed. He would
not at present enter into any plans or details, hat
would reserve them foe the meeting of the com-
mittee. He felt °ennead in his own mind that the
drainage of the town could be effected without going
into the harbour or backwater, and that it could be
done with but little increase to the ratepayers of
tho two. He then proposed " That • committee
at the whole Council, together with the Board of
Health, be formed, to consider the hest made of
draining the town, and to report their preceedings

like for the representatives of the pros to be in at-

was no hole-and-corner affair. Although the subject
