THE PROGRESS OP THE MAIN DRAINAGE AND THAMES

EMBANKMENT WORE.S.
Mr BAZALGETTE read his monthly report. which was as
follows :—" About 12 miles of the middle level sower on
the north side of the river have been executed, and Messrs
Brassey and C ~'s contract for the line is now, with the
exception of the aqueduct over the Metropolitan Railway,
and one or two connexions, complete. The total cost of the
works, as far as can be at present ascertained, is about
£316,000, being £l,OOO in excess of my last report. Upwards
of four miles of the western sewers had been completed by
Messrs Moxon and Co., at a probable cost of £50,000. Mr
Webster commenced his contract for the low level sewer on
Aug. 5, and had now seven 'shafts sunk each to a depth of
45ft ; the brickwork is also being got in, and a length of
about 350 ft of loft barrel sewer is completed. The total
cost of all these works, and others in connection therewith,
amounts to £7,500. The Thames Embankment (No. 1
contract) between Westminster and Waterloo bridges—
approximate value of the work done and of the materials
and plant upon the ground is about £51,000 or £15,000 in
excess of my last report. The contract (between Waterloo-
bridge and the Temple-gardens) is going on favourably. A
length of about 120 ft of the dam is completed and made
watertight, and concrete is being tipped into it up to the level
of the underside of the brickwork of the river wall. The
estimated value of the works, Ste ,is about £35,000. The
material used in filling in along the foreshore is now entirely
confined to that supplied by the Thames Conservators. Oa
the south side of the river the low level sower Mr Webster
has completed about six miles of sewer at a cost of £167,000.
Messrs. Dethwick have executed works, about £3,200 in
iof
downwards, ‘hole
value, of the Greenwich and Deptford sewers. The outfall
works at Crossness are going on favourably. For the last
three weeks the outlets of the Duffield, Great St. John, and

ASHBURTON.

Mr. Rogers, a gentleman living at Wage.house,
near the town of Ashburton, has offered himself as a
candidate for the borough in Liberal interests, and
it is said that another gentleman, Mr Jardine, will
probably be brought forward by the Liberals. Mr
Astcll, the present Conservative member, won by a
majority of one only, and it is said that there is an
excellent chance of the Liberals regaining the seat,
provided they are united and bring out one candi-
da`e only.

has for so many years represented the county of

at the close of the present Parliamen, is, we have
reason to believe, without Lundation. It is 'Post
improbable that there will be any opposition to
either of the present members, as nothing but the
retirement of Mr. Henley would bring Sir Henry

HAS PINGS.

Immediately on the rceeipt of informatio❑ of the
death of the Duke of Cleveland, as reported in
The Sun, by which Lord Harry Vane (the colleague
of Mr F. North, M P.) is elevated to the House of
Lords, the Liberal party bestirred themselves an)
called a preliminary meeting by wcrd of mouth at
the Castle Hotel. The result was an invitation to
the Hon. Geo. Waldegrave Leslie, formerly a resi-
dent here, and brother of the Bishop of Carlisle, to
stand for the vacant seat. A favcurable reply was
received, and a requ'sition was signed within 12
ours by 300 of the voterp.
Mr P. F. Robertson, deputy-chairman of the Lon-
don Assurance Corporation, formerly the Conserva-
tive member for the borough, commenced a canvass
on Friday, and on Saturday issued an address in
which he refers to his past services in the House,
when he was "ever ready to give an independent
vote in support of what he deemed beneficial to the
country." He adds, "I have supported Lord Palmer-
stonwhen I thought him right and voted against him
when I deemed him in the wrong ; and this I would
do again if placed by you in the House of Commons.
He also declared that be v ill not bind himself upon
any particular question. It is said that the agent
of Mr. Dumas, of Brighton notoriety, is also in the
town.

The Hon. George Waldegrave Leslie arrived on
on Saturday evening, and a numerously attended
meeting (called at two hours' notice) was held in
the Assembly-room. The chair was taken by the
ex-Mayor, Mr. Alderman R )6.9, and the hon. can-
didate was supported by the leading members of the
town council. In a speech of considerable length,
Mr. Leslie detailed his political convictions. Ile
stated himself to be a warm supporter of Lord Pal•
merstou's Government ; to be in favour of such
retrenchment in the national expenditure as was
possible having regard to the efficiency of the various
services, and of any well considered measure for
extending the franchise. Ho would not support
the total abolition of church rates, but would hail
with satisfaction any measure that would provide
for an equitable adjustment of the question ; and he
vt as opposed to voting by ballot. Several questions
were asked, and answered in a manly and sAtisf:.c-
tory manner. A resolution pledging the meeting
to use every effort to secure the return of the Hon.
George Waldegrave Leslie (mov.:d by Mr. Conn•
cillor Gausden, and seconded by Mr. 11. Dunk),
was unanimously carried.
Although the Liberals have a considerable
mtjority on the register, it is thought that Mr.
Robertson's local influence will place him in a
favourable position at the poll.

MARK-LANE.
The demand for wheat in the country markets, held on
Saturday, exhibited less activity. Compared with the pre-
vious week the changes in prices were unimportant, but, in
some instances, the quotations ruled in favour of buyers.
The barley trade was quiet, at barely late rates. Other
articles, however, ruled firm in price.
On the continent the corn trade is dull, and at some of the
ports prices have slightly declined. At New York, wheat
and flour have considerably improved in value, although
the export demand has not increased.
The arrivals of English grain, fresh up to our markets
last week, were but moderate. Th 3 imports from abroad
amounted to 8,314 qunrters of wheat, 3,183 barley, 27,423
oats, 3,371 rye, 2,680 beans, 1,193 peas, 120 tares, 16,623
linseed, 13,117 oil seeds, 10,467 maize, 160 sundry seeds ;
436 sacks and 10,277 barrels of flour.
Fresh up to our market, to •day, the arrivals of English
wheat were moderately good, and the quality of nearly the
whole of the produce was fine. The attendance of buyers
was by no meats numerous, and most offers were at lower
prices. A portion of the supply, however, changed hands
at the rates current on Monday last, but in most instances
factors had to submit to a reduction in the quotations.
compared with the same market. of fully one shilling per
quarter, in order to clear the stands.
The supply of most descriptions c f foreign wheat on offer
was tolerably large. Generally speaking, the trade was
slow, and the amount of business transacted small. In
prices, however, no quotable change took place.
Floating cargoes of grain were in but moderate request,
at previous quotations.
The market was moderately supplied with barley. The
show of English produce on offer was of variable quality.
and good and fine malting parcels realised full prices—in
some instances, 38s per quarter. Inferior produce, how•
ever, was dull, and the quotations declined is to 2s por
quarter.

The malt trade was in a sluggish state, at about previous

rates.
With oats the market was well supplied. Compared with
several previous markets the trade exhibited less activity.
A. tolerably extensive business was, however, transacted,
and prices ruled firm.
The supply of beans on offer was small, and all descrip-
tions moved off freely, at extreme rates.
The few peas on offer were held at very full prices, at
which they were mostly disposed of.
For most descriptions of flour the trade was quiet, but
without leading to any quotable change in the currencies.

EXETER.

Great preparations are being made by both parties
in this city for the forthcoming registration. 'rho
narrow majority obtained by Lord Courtonay over
Mr Coleridge has stimulated the Liberals to zealous
:fforts, and as Mr Coleridge has promised to fight
the battle again at the next general election, the
Liberal party feel confident of regaining the seat,

HASTINGS.

Immediately on the receipt of information of the
death of the Duke of Cleveland, as reported in
The Sun, by which Lord Harry Vane (the colleague
of Mr F. North, M P.) is elevated to the House of
Lords, the Liberal party bestirred themselves and
called a preliminary meeting by ward of mouth at
the Castle Hotel. The result was an invitation to
the Hon. Geo. Waldegrave Leslie, formerly a resi-
dent here, and brother of the Bishop of Carlisle, to
stand for the vacant seat. A favourable reply was
received, and a requ'sition was signed within 12
hours by 300 of the voters.
. _ _

Mr P. F. Robertson, deputy-chairman of the Lon-
don Assurance Corporation, formerly the Conserva-
tive member for the borough, commenced a canvass
on Friday, and on Saturday issued an address in
which he refers to his past services in the House,
when he was "ever ready to give an independent
vote in support of what he deemed beneficial to the
country." He adds, "I have supported Lord Palmer-
stonwhen I thought him right and voted against him
when I deemed him in the wrong ; and thii I would
do again if placed by you in the House of Commons.
He also declared that he will not bind himself upon
any particular question. It is said that the agent
of Mt. Duman, of Brighton notoricty, is slow I. the
town.

The Hon. George Waldegrave Leslie arrived on
on Saturday evening, and a numerously attended
meeting (called at two hours' notice) was held in
the Assembly-room. The chair was taken by the
ex-Mayor, Mr. Alderman Rose, and the hon. can-
didate was supported by the leading members of the
town council. In a speech of considerable length,
Mr. Leslie detailed his political convictions. He
stated himself to be a warm supporter of Lord Pal-
merston's Government ; to be in favour of such
retrenchment in the national expenditure as was
possible having regard to the efficiency of the various
services, and of any well-considered measure for
extending the franchise. He would not support
the total abolition of church rates, but would hail
with satisfaction any measure that would provide
for an equitable adjustment of the question ; and he
was opposed to voting by ballot. Several questions
were asked, and answered in a manly and satisfac-
tory manner. A reeolution pledging the meeting
to use every effort to secure the return of the Hon.
George Waldegrave Leslie (moved by Mr. Coun•
cillor Gay.sden, and seconded by Mr. H. Dunk),
was unanimously carried.
Although the Liberals have a considerable
majority on the register, it is thought that Mr.
Robertson's local influence will place him in a
favourable position at the poll.

in the year, and that the cost of working was about
a guinea per day at present, but the Lord only knew
what it would cost when it became a little older and
required repair. (Hear, and laughter.)
Mr. B. LEE then proposed "The Health of Mr.
Bernard, MY. for Aylesbury." (Loud cheering.)
Mr. BERNARD briefly acknowledged the compli-
ment, observing with regard to political matters
that such changes had taken place that it was diffi-
cult for any one to draw a line of demarcation, or,
indeed, almost to know to which party he belonged.
He certainly felt himself free from any political
alliances, and had followed that path which he con-
sidered most conducive to the interests of his con•
stituents and of the country at large. (Cheers.) He
was not a practical agriculturist, but had witnessed
with great pleasure the improvements which had
taken place within the few years, and felt convinced
that they had proved beneficial to all classes engaged
in agricultural pursuits.
•' The Health of the County Magistrates" was
acknowledged by Mr. Hammersley (who succeeded
to the chairmanship of the quarter sessions on the
retirement of Mr. Henley). Several other toasts of
a local character were afterwards given and re-
sponded to, and the party did not :separate until a
rather late hour.

LIFE BRANCH.

The progress of tho Life Branch, as shown by the New
Business transacted in tke last year, is most promising, and
the advances made, year by year, in the amount of New In-
surance 4 frected, sh..w clearly the estimation in which the
Company is held. The following is a statement for the last
five years:—
Net Sum Assured on New PolloieS

._.. _ _........
after deducting Guarantees. . Net Premiums.
1859
1860
1861
1862
1863
This rapid growth, amountirg to 73 per cent. on the Sum
Assured, and upwards of 80 per cent. on the Premium re-
ceived in the course of live years, may justly be considered as
larger than any which could have been reasonably expected.
The first halt of the current year 1861, however, far outsti ips
the ratio of increase indicated by the figures ju-t quoted, as
the sum assured for that pariod of six months only actually
exceeds Half-a-Mil ion sterling*.
The rate of Mortality, likewise, still presents highly favour-
able features, and augurs well for the result to be shown by
true quinquennial Investigation, which is to take place when
the present year is conclud A.

The rumour which has been current for some

has for so many years represented the county of
Oxford in the House of Commons, intends to retire
at the close of the present Parliament, is, we have
reason to believe, without foundation. It is most
improbable that there will be any opposition to
victim- or the present mcmoers, as nothing bat the
