FISH-MANURE.—A few weeks ago we quoted ugh
letter published by Mr. Preston, one of the bore..sea
magistrates of Yarmouth, respectinc, a nuisance used
on the Suffolk side of the river by the fish-manure le
of Mr. Samuel Osier. Mr. Preston stated at the ;i1,4
that himself and his family were laid up from the nqiele
fumes proceeding from the works, and attributed plo
death of one of his children to the same cause. till
official notice was taken of the matter, however„'eral
last week, when the authorities were driven by a ge'very
outcry to take steps to abate the nuisance. On the eicept

the same evening, and they instructed the towe'sor

on Friday, before the Mayor and twelve others ,
trates. Mr. Osier admitted the existence of the utlisieieit
to °11.40
and expressed his willingness to remove it at the tote
notice. The Town Clerk pressed for an lintsis et
