GAS AND WATER COMMITTEE

The proceedings of this committee having been read,
Mr. HILL, in moving their confirmation, said that he
had visited the works, and he was rejoiced to say, that
they were proceeding more expeditiously than they had
done. The works were being constructed in a more
substantial manner. The tank was nearly completed,
and the retort was going on satisfactorily. He con-
cluded- by alluding to the able statement which they
had heard from Mr. Rawlinson, their engineer, as to
the progress of the water works, and moved that the
tender of Messrs. Melling, of the Rainford Iron Works,
be accepted, at a cost not to exceed £1,556.
Mr. MLBSII,ALL seconded the resolution, which was
carried unanimously.

The other routine business—the proceedings of the
various committees were confirmed without agy
comment, and the board then adjourned.

LIVERPOOL LICENSED VICTUALLERS

The monthly meeting of the committee of the Licensed
Victuallers' Association was held yesterday in the Asylum,
West Derby-road, Mr. Warriner in the chair. The
other members present were—Messrs. Lumb, Jones,
Crane, Calderbank, Curwan, Hornby, and Atkinson.

The minutes of the lastmeeting liaving been read,

The CHAIRMAN said the first business for the con-
sideration of the committee was, the manner of invest-
ing their £2OO balance. Some time ago, a considerable
sum had been subscribed for the purpose of defending
the interests of their society in parliament, and the
present X 290 was the balance over the amount required.
The sum had been lying at the bank, at a very small
rate of interest, and he therefore thought it desirable to
invest it more advantageously than at present.
Mr. ATKINSON moved that the sum be put to interest
in the Saxon Building Society.
The motion was seconded by Mr. JONES, and agreed
to.

Mr. A-miaow observed that the licensed victuallers
were likely to have their water-rates. very much raised.
lie said he remembered some time ago, when a similar
thing was attempted in Liverpool, the licensed victuallers
decided on sending a deputation to the Water Commit-
tee, and the, result was, the redaction of their rates to
an equality with other tradesmen. Instead of using
more water than other portions of the community,
he believed the licensed victuallers used less ;
they were quite willing to pay their proportion
of rent, but he considered it most . unjust
upon them an extra charge. Be therefore urged them,
seeing that the municipal election was at hand, to
ascertain from their representatives whether any such
change was contemplated, and if so upon what grounds.
After some discussion upon the subject, Mr. ATKIN-
SON moved that a deputation of the chairman, vice-
chairman, Mr.
Thomas Jones, and such of the trustees
as think fit, wait upon the Water Committe, for the pur-
pose of ascertaining the facts of the case.
The motion, having been seconded, was carried unani-
mously.
This concluded the public business.

ITOLLOWAY°B Ofxrstrzir.---Bad legs, wounds, ulcers, and all
descriptions of sores are remediable by the proper and diligent
use of this inestimable preparation. To attempt to cure bad
legs by plastering the edge of the wound together is a folly;
for, should the skin unite, a boggy diseased condition remains
underneath to break out with tenfold fury
.in a' feat days. The
only rational and permanent treatment, as indicated by nature,
is to reduce the inflammation in aid about the wound, to Booth
the neighbouring nerves, to cool the heated blood as is courses
