SPAIN AND CHILI.

MADRID, Nov. 24.

The Epoco of this evening says :—" Here, in
Spain, where a e raise to its highest point the
feeling of national dignity, we should understand
that we take a wrong course by commencing to
threaten Chili in order to obtain satisfaction from
that republic."

The Diario Espanol contains the following :
" We can affirm that, despite the Times and all the
merchants in the world, Chili at the present moment
will either have given the satisfaction demanded by
Spain or have felt the rigour of our arms."
General Espartero has not yet signed the Pro-
gressist manifesto.

Au Imperial decree has been published to-day

Metropolitan Board of Works.

At the usual weekly meeting of the Metropolitan
Board of Works yesterday—Sir John Thwaites in
the chair--the report of the Main Drainage Com-
mittee was brought up and read by Mr. Pollard
(clerk). Its principal recommendations were that
the metropolis, for the purposes of the Metropolitan
Fire Brigade, be divided into four districts ; that
the whole of the men to be employed in the Metro-
politan Fire Brigade do live at the stations to which
they are attached ; that the foreman and engineers
live rent free, and have coal and gas allowed them
as at present, and that the sub-engineers and fire-
men pay for their quarters at the rate of from Is. to
2s. 6d. per week ; that for the present the following
appointments,be made—viz., Four foremen of dis-
tricts at the daily pay of 108., with free quarters,
coal, and gas ; 13 engineers at 6s. a day, with free
quarters, coal, and gas ; 15 sub-engineers at ss. a
day, these to pay for their quarters at the same rate
as at present ; 49 first-class firemen at 4s. 6d. a
day, and 49 second class firemen at 4s. a day, both
classes paying for their quarters at the same rate as
at present ; and submitting the names of the men to
be reappointed. That there be a third class of fire-
men, to consist of such new men as shall in future
take service in the brigade, and whose pay shall be
3s. a day. That the special duties performed by the
present establishment be continued by the brigade
pending final arrangements. These recommenda-
tions were moved seriatim by Mr. Freeman, the
deputy-chairman of the committee. After some
discussion the whole of the recommendations were
put and agreed to, and the report was referred back
to the Main Drainage Committee to carry out the
details.
