PARLIAMENTARY COMMITTEES.

METROPOLITAN WATER SEPPLT COMMITTEE.—
Yesterday, long drawn out evidence was taken, on the water
trade of Edinbtirough, Dunfermline, and Dundee, with tho
view of showing the well working of the water system in
the hands of private companies. A. diverting point during
the day, as illustrating the scarcity of the aqua Pura at one
period iri Dundee, was the declaration of a witness that
when they could not get water, they shaved themselves
in small beer." (Laughter.) Mr. Williams, one of the
members of the local Board of Health at Worcester, spoke
to the insufficiency and inferiority of the water supplied
to that town, and which was under the administration of
the municipality. Mr. Phinn, one of the counsel fur the
government bill, lodged a complaint with the committee, to
the effect that the only companies who had complied with
the requisition of the committee, calling for a statistical
return of their working for three years—were the East
London, the Grand Junction, the Southwark and Vauxhall,
and the Kent Water Companies.
CROWN ERTATE PAVING BILL.—TRANsFERENCE
OF POWERS FROM THE COMMIASItUNEItS TO TOE
—Yesterday the conunittte on this bill, Mr. Vernon Smith
in the chair, met fur the first time to consider this measure,
brought in by Lord Seymour and Mr. Cornwall Lewis, the
object of it being to transfer the duties and jurisdiction of
paving, lighting, Watering and cleansing parts of the crown
estate in the district of the Regent's-park, and certain
streets and places in Westminster, frem the commissioner*
to the parishes of St. Pancras, Marylebonc, St. Litrorge's
Hanover-square, and St. James Westminster.

THE GUILDHALL AND ITS DECORATIoNB.—The
whole of the Guildhall, with its decorations, us prepared
for the recent visit of her Majesty the Queen to the Lord
Mayor on the 9th inst., will be thrown open on Thursday,
Friday, and Saturday next., from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., for
public inspection. The admission will be by ticket.
EFFECTS OF RAILWAY COMPETITION.—A striking
instance of the results of competition in railways has just
occurred in Leeds, where the Midland and Groat Northern
are struggling in a most extraordinary manner for the Ex-
hibition traffic. The consequence is that yesterday (Tues-
day) the third-class fares from Leeds to London and back
were only 4s. 6d. by the Great Northern, and ss. by the
Midland, with a prospect of a still further reduction, each
company having announced its determination to be 6d.
lower than its competitor.
HEALTH OF LONDON DURING TILE WEEK.—The
official report says :—lt was shown in the last report that
the public health had improved to some extent under the
influence of more genial weather; it will now be seen that

observed that cholera had made much progress at this period
in 1849, and with diarrhea had raised the total deaths in
the corresponding week of that year to 1741: hence the
average mortality as now stated is higher than a normal
state of the population would have produced. The mor-
tality of London last week is equal to only half its sum at
a time when cholera had begun, but is greater than what
prevails in districts where more favourable conditions of
health exist. In the present return the deaths arising from
diseasesof the respiratory organs amount to 112, while the
corrected average of corresponding weeks is 89. In the
tymotic class the number of fatal diseases is 209, of which
21 were produced by small-pox, 21 by measles, 34 by hoop-
Ing-coiwh, and only 6 by scarlatina. In the last three
weeks diarrhea has been fatal successively to 23, 53, and 64
persons, showing a gradual increase. Of the 64 only 11
were more than 15 yeas of age. Right cases of cholera
were registered in various districts. The births of 719 boys
and 688 girls, in all 1,407 children, were registered last
week. The average number in six corresponding --
1845-50 is 1,244. The mean height of the barons,

arose out of a desire, often expnesed by the deceased, to

Dr. Harding contended that the codicil was completely

that Mr. Dante' was a gentleman to whom the deceased
considered herself under • debt of gratitude ; and the be-

the evidence of the medical practitioners on the other side

Dr. It. Phillimore appeared on the game side.
Dr. Addams and Dr. Robinson, in opposition to the co-

that the proof being almether deficient, the instrument
should be prommed agamst with cosh.

Henry Sanders, a Tail:raspsTriaililiiresald poste misMs
who stated that he was the son of a pawnbroker at Twititelle
ham, was charged by Mr. John Osmond, coffee-hewn
keeper, 87, Strand, with a most outrageous assault.
Osmond stated that about 104:o'clock yesterday morn- •
ing his waiter, brought an sag to him, saying that • gentle-
man had told her it was a bad one, and he -would not have
it. Having inspected it, witness found it perfectly whole-
some, and took it back to the defendant. Witness asked
him civilly, " What is the matter with the egg ?" Defen-
dant said, " Why, I say it's a bad one." Complainant then
endeavoured to convince him it was wholesome, but in the
midst of the argument defendant seized the disputed egg,
and, with the cup, flung it at witness's head. Missing its
destination, however, it struck a pier glass, which it com-
pletely destroyed. Defendant then rushed at complainant,
seized him by the neckerchief, and, exclaiming " You shall
have it now ! " commenced inflicting a series of violent
blows on his face, till compelled to desist by the interference
of several gentlemen present, who obliged him to sit down.
Witness then directed his waiter to fetch a policeman. As
she was about to do this prisoner again started up, and
after striking her on the legs, threw her into the Ire-place,
where he had deposited the cause of the affray. Ultimately
• policeman was fetched, and the defendant taken to the
