LEEDS CORN MARKET.-MARCH 22

The show of wheat is only moderate, the higher rates
given in agricultural markets causes great firmness in the
trade here, but an advance of is per quarter, which is asked,
checks business, and prices can only be quoted fully equal
to Friday last. Barley as before. The demand is limited
for beans, oats, and other articles.

and was bought up at full prices. Oats : Buyers _ paying

WIRRALL WATER WORKS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES

Sir,---As so much has appeared in the papers with
reference to this subject, I think sit due to the
public to state that Mr. Hope Scott's assertion
that, under the Local Government Act, townships
have not the power to construct their own water
works, and supply The
to the inhabitants, is
totally incorrect. The act is perfectly clear
and intelligible, and does confer those rights
upon townships willing to adopt it ; but there are
certain clauses from the Health of Towns Act of
1848 incorporated in the act in reference to water,
and Mr. Hope Scott (no doubt under instructions)
read the act without these clauses, and that at the
last moment, just before the committee-room was
cleared, and when both counsel and the parlia-
mentary agent for the township of Tranmere were
out of the room.

If anyone interested, or likely to become so, in
the Wirrall Company will only consult their attorney
before taking any steps in the matter, he will, no
doubt, be advised that what I state is correct. My
authority, however, as to the construction of the
act, is no other than Torn Taylor, Esq., barrister-
at-law, of the Local Government Act Office, and he
states that upwards of 50 townships in England are
now adopting the act, for the purpose of supplying
themselves with water, &c.

The committee for the adoption of the Local
Goyernment Act for Tranmere have determined to
oppose the bill in the House of Lords, and they
have the satisfaction of being assured, by parties
most competent to judge, that their opposition will
be successful.---i Ata, sir, your obedient servant, '
