A report was broaght up from the Works and General
Purposes Committee with respect to the re-apportionment of
the Rock Loan, which stated that the committee had care-
fully considered the statements contained in the Tarbes coca-
nittnications referred to them, end had reamaldered the
principles on which the apportionment they at first recom-
weeded wee founded. The remit had been that whilst they
for the most part Whited to the recommendations contained
is their former report, they bad with respect to some few
weeks affecting seemed perishes introduced a modification of
the principle at first sdopted,whicli would effect a correspond-
leg alteration is the amounts to be charged to some of those
parishes. In their report of Merck 21, the committee elated
that where the work executed benefited one perish only,
they imposed the whole coot of the work on that perish, and
wbtro it benefited more than one, they had divided the cost
between the wattle benefited, laths proportion of themes is
each perish drained by the work. It wee in the clam of cases
falling under tee latter branch of the foregoing rule that the
modificatioa above referred to woe introduced. Further con. !
delegation) had 'MOW the committee that the tent of area
aloes was not the just principle for apportioning the wet of •
work; but that it was also proper to consider the retest:pie
annual value of the property situate will-in the limits affected
by the sore, end with respect to soma few works, therefore,
they had distributed the coo between the periebea in the
ratio of the rentals. A tabular statement appended to the
report chewed the alteration in the amounts sleeting certain
parishes. The committee then proceeded to comment upon
ouch of the representations contained io the memorials re-
ferred to them ea seemed to them to demand separate no•
tics. Some of these documents contained arguments di-
rected to the object of showing that the origital apportion-
ment of tee Sewers Counnisoloners was the only clue
which could Le adopted consistently with juotee and equity,
and they objected to any alteration whatever. The cum-
matte', however, considered it unnecessary to reply to these
cal detail, inasmuch as the beard had decided that it vise
=tthat a re-distribation of these debt. should be mods,
at appplicatioa should be made to parliament fur that
purpose. ls Jonas few insteeces, some trilling errors were
pointed out fa sudiniag the cost of particular lengths of
sewer to certain parishes, whereon the sewer woe in fect
found to be constructed in another locslity. Them arum in
some Instances from a similarity of names. A few errors of
this nature might enmity occur in en inquiry so extensive and
compliceted, but they bad been rectified. With respect to
the letter from Mr. Daw, clerk tethsCommimionersof Sewers
for the City of London, stating, that in reference to
the proposed re-apportionment of that part of the Rack
Loan which related to the Counter's Creek Sewer, the City
was distinctly excepted by the Metropolitan Senors Act
from that debt, and that, is the City were at that time exe-
cuting their own works of sewerage, some of them mate-
rially affecting the districts out of the City, entirely at their
own eon, the commiesionere thought that it was sot reason-
able that any charge on the citizens should be made on ac-
must of such debt. As regards the execution of local
drainage, the committee were of opinion that the Commis-
sioners of Sewers for the City of London stand in the more
position with regard to the works executed by them within
tboir own arra as other districts in the metropolis with out-
falls into the Thames. The main drainage weeks are works
of interception, and the neoeveity for such works ernes as
well from the City sewers as from !hotel of other districts
hiring their outfall into the river; end, as regards the
Counter's Creek diversion works, the committee consider
there is no Injustice in making the cost of these works a
metropolitan charge, es they form part of the interception
work., and, if not already completed, they would now have
to be constructed as a part of the mein drainage. As
a'ready intimated, however, the committee do not
propose to raise this part et the debt by
but suggest that it should be paid out tithe
moseys raised under the Mein Beldame Act of last year.
Ms works the expense of which has been re-distributed ac-
Gordian to rental are the following:-1. The Hammersmith
Creek and Webb'e-lase contracts, the satire cost of which
was 7,9191. 19s. 7d.; and, as a consequence of adopting the
=Lk of rental, en addition will be made to the debt cf
ransith, in which perish the works were executed.
I The debt of Mantinenanith wid to increased from the amount
recommended I. the former report of your committee—
namely, lddl. le. 4d to 6,1601. Se. 4d., and Willeedea,
Acton, sad Fulham will be proportionably relieved,
Chiswick Time a slight increase. 2. The Deptford,
Lewisham. sad Bell-pees sewer, the cost of which was
26,6461. lea. 6d., has been imperil:gad according to the
rental, in consequence of which the charge on St. Paul,
Deptford, is inert-amid from 6.3381. 2., ed., the amount first
recommended, to 7,7721. les. 7d. The third work which has
been dealt with la tees seine manner is the North Kent Val-
ley and Leo-road newer, Ac., cost 2,6801. de. 14., which wall
make eons variance he the amounts proposed to be charged
cm the perishes concerned.
Mr. Cesium moved the ador ion of the report, which
wee sanded by Mr. WAIN, and *Per a rather spiritcl di.-
envies wee adopted by a majority of 17 to S.
