SANATORY CONDITION OP THE OITY.

Dr. Letheby presented the following report on the sana-
tory condition of the City :

"To the Hon. the Commissioners of Sewers of the City of

London.

Gentlemen,—The inspectors' returns which are before
you relate to 168 houses that have been inspected, and I
submit about 15 places for sanatory improvement.
"I have to direct your attention to a matter which is of
the greatest importance to the statistical returns of sickness
for the City. For some time past the returns of fever and
febricula made by Dr. Reed in the medical relief book in one
of the western districts are at variance with the results Of
my own and the inspector's returns—as last week there
were three cases of typhus fever and 10 cases of febricula
returned in Dr. R'ed's book. I have made especial inquiries
into them. The results are that I cannot find any single
case of the existence of typhus fever—and, although there
is scarcely any form of sickness in which there are not
feverish symptoms, and thertfore recorded as feverish, yet
there is no case among them—less the 10 of febricular—
that can be considered in the light of a fever case of any
variety of form.
" I have recorded the particulars of each of the cases,and
I direct your attention to this master for two reasons; first,
because any erroneous entries in the returns might vitiate
the statistics of the subject ; and secondly, because the
public may be unnecessarily alarmed by a tupposed preva-
lence of fever,

" The markets and slaughter-houses have been duly in-
spected, and the officers have condemned 4,4111b5. of meat
as unfit for human food, It consisted of six sheep, two
calves, five pigs, 34 quarters of bsef, and four joints of meat;
9721bs of it were diseased, 611bs were putrid, and the rest
was from animals that had died from natural causes.

" The mortality returns for the week show a considerable
decline from the number of the preceding week, and they
are also much below the average. Last week the num-
ber of deaths in the City was 51, the average for the
corresponding week of the last nine years being 59. The
chief causes of death were as follows :—Pulmonary cen-
suroption, 6—pneumonia, 3—bronchitis, B—hydrocephalus,
I—continued fever, 3 —scarlet fever, 4—measles, I—and
whooping cough, I—making together seven ceaths from
tubercular diseases, 11 from inflammatory affections of the
lungs, and nine from diseases of a zymotic character.
" The number of births registered in the City in the week
is 52, 26 being boys and 26 girls.—lan, &0.,
(Signed) " H. E. LETHEBY.'
A copy of the report referring to the sickness returns
was ordered to be forwarded to the West London Union.
Some further business was disposed of, and the Court
adjourned.

PERNAMBUCO.

Yesterday the 18th half-yearly meeting of this company
was held at the London Tavern; Mr R. Benson in chair.
The report was taken as read.

The CHAIRMAN, in moving its adoption, said he regretted
that the directors had to meet the proprietors with feelings
of mortification and disappointment. They had hoped to be
able to announce an extension of the guarantee by the Bra-
zilian Government. The company had presented a petition
to the Imperial Government praying for an inquiry into the
company's expenditure both in England and the Brazils,as
well as for an extension of the company's guarantee, but
owing to a general suspension of the business of the Brazi-
lian Legislature the application of the company, as well as
the national business itself, were brought to a temporary
termination. Their manager in Brazil was of opinion that
it would now have to stand over until the next Session of
the Chambers, in April next. The directors had every
reason to be 6 atisfied with the Government. There was no
reason, however, for doubt or for despondency. It was only
a question of time and delay, attributable, as much as any-
thing else, to the excessive tardiness that pervaded the
whole proceedings of the Brazilian Government. The
claims of the company based upon the fact that they had
encountered successive difficulties and unfavourable sea-
sons, and that their estimates were insufficient to provide
and csinplvte a that-class railway for the Brazils, and be-

SOUTH LEICESTERSHIRE.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yester-
day at the Euston Station; the non. Major Vereker in the

chair.

The Secretary read the report, which stated that the sum
of £4,543 would be received from the London and North-
Western Railway company for the working during the
half-year ending June 30, a result which enabled them to
recommend the proprietors to declare a dividend of 41 per
cent. per annum, less income-tax, on the share capital, and
to pay the interest on loans.
The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the reiort, and
remarked that the dividend was a larger one than the com-
pany was entitled to under its agreement with the London
and North-Western, but the directors had represented to
the lessees that the goods traffic had not been developed to
the extent to which it might have been, and this having
been fairly considered by the lessees, a compensation had
been allowed to the company, in which resulted the larger
dividend now recommended.
Mr SATILL seconded the motion, which was agreed to
tivn. con.

The CHAnorerr then moved the adoption of a 41 per
cent. dividend, and said that arrangements would be made
for obviating the awkwardness of having the revenue and
capital accounts made up to different dates, as at present.
The motion was seconded and carried, and a vote of
thanks to the chairman terminated the proceedings,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Eir,—ln the Globe, October 27, 1864, we find the follow-
ing remarks. After dwelling at some length on the finan-
cial crisis in the Brezils, the editor says—" The moral,
according to our induction, is, that the great issuing bank
of a country cannot do its duty in checking excessive trade
by raising its rate of interest in time, unless it is very strong
in itself and completely independent of interference on the
part of Government." Here, then, we find the admission
that our trade has been checked and our commercial embar-
rassments occasioned by the ratsing of the t ate of interest by
the directors of the Bank of England. But if the directors
of the Bank of England have been invested with
lituu cn w un uecentrolien by the Government, of checking
what they may consider to be excessive trade by the
raising of the interest of money, what becomes of free
trade ? Trade, which is now subject to this despotic
power, is not free. When by the raising of the interest of
money the import trade is checked, and the prices of
commodities are lowered, and the orders for foreign goods
are cancelled, it is absurd to talk of tree trade. The
fact is that our free-trade system of commerce is incom-
patible with Sir It. Peel's Currency Bill, and that if free
trade is to be maintained, the currency must be altered.—
Your most obedient servant,

UTTERING COUNTERFEIT COIN AT RAILWAY REFRESIL-
MENT ROOMS.—Lavina Sullevan, a young woman, was
placed at the bar charged with endeavouring to utter
a spurious five-shilling piece at Mr Henry Fisher's, the rail-
way refreshment rooms. Pimlico.
Ellen Sherborne, barmaid at the London, Chatham, and
Dover ?ermines said that last evening the prisoner came
to the bar and asked for a glass of ginger brandy, on pay •
ment for which sho tendered a counterfeit five- shilling-piece.
Witness immediately saw it was bad and told prisoner that
she could not give change. She afterwards told her that it
was not a good one, upon which prisoner said that she was
not aware of it. She then entered into a long statement of
having had the money given her by a gentleman, near the
station, but subsequently materially altered the nature of
her statement. 'Witness sent for the superintendent, and
the prisoner was given into custody.
Prisoner said she was in great distress last evening when
she met a gentleman with whom she had been on terms of
intimacy, who gave her five shillings, telling her he was
going to Brighton, and when he returned, which would be
this (Wednesday) evening, he would perhaps give her
another. She did not know where the gentleman was to bo
found.
Mr Fisher's barmaid said that there had been several
attempts made of late to pass bad money at the railway
refreshment rooms. There had been no less than three
counterfeit pieces presented to her this week, but f ortu•
nafrly- she had detected them immediately.

Mt Arnold remanded the prisoner until Monday, offering
to accept bail for her appearance, if she could get it.

PERNAbIBUCO.

Yesterday the 18th half-yearly meeting of this company
was held at the London Tavern; Mr R. Benson in chair.

The report was taken as read.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving its adoption, said he regretted
that the directors had to meet the proprietors with feelings
of mortification and disappointment. They had hoped to be
able to announce an extension of the guarantee by the Bra-
zilian Government. The company had presented a petition
to the Imperial Government praying for an inquiry into the
company's expenditure both in England and the Brazils,as
well as for an extension of the company's guarantee, but
owing to a general suspension of the business of the Brazi-
lian Legislature the application of the company, as well as
the national business itself, were brought to a temporary
termination. Their manager in Brazil was of opinion that
it would now have to stand over until the next Session of
the Chambers, in April next. The directors had every
reason to be satisfied with the Government. There was no
reason, however, for doubt or for despondency. It was only
a question of time and delay, attributable, as much as any-
thing else, to the excessive tardiness that pervaded the
whole proceedings of the Brazilian Government. The
claims of the company based upon the fact that they had
encountered successive difficulties and unfavourable sea-
sons, and that their estimates were insufficient to provide
and complete a first-class railway for the Brazils, and be-
