CITY COMMISSION OF SEWERS.—Yeetertlay a
court was held at the Guildhall, Mr. Deputy Peacork in
the chair. Mr. H. L. Taylor moved that the resolntion of
the court agreeing with the report of the committee on
general purposes to offer a sum of 300!. per annum for
offices for the use of the surveyor instead of his present
offices, held at a rent of flel. per annum, be rescinded. lie
stated that as no doubt the unoccupied apartments in the
Town Clerk's house, under the roof of the Guildhall, could
be appropriated to the purposes of the inemmed business of
the surveyor, there could be no pretext for additional calla
upon the poor ratepayer for what might be considered by
some to be a necessary accommodation for their officer.
The court agreed to the motion, and also to a motion by
Deputy Harrison, to the effect of conferring with the Ccurt
of Common Council on the subject, an alternative which
seemed to be considered necessary upon the occasion.
Upon the motion of Mr. Elliott, a return was ordered to be
made of the number of places where cows are kept in the
City of London,tand the number of cows kept in each place.

AS UNLIKE AS CHALK AND CHEIMIII.-1t is a
common observation to hear, Oh ! they are as different
as chalk is from cheese." Now, the difference between
these two articles of commerce is not so great as person,
may foolishly imagine. We all know that chalk enters
largely into the composition of milk, and we also very well
know that cheese is made from milk. Accordingly, it
stands to reason that. instead of there being any violent dif-
ference, there is, on the contrary, a strong resemblance be-
tween chalk and cheese. They are both members of the
celebrated Casein family.—Punch.
