LIVERPOOL LICENSING BILL.

On the motion for the secondreading of this bill,
Mr. LAWSON moved, as an amendment, that "the
granting of licenses for the sale of intoxicating liquors is a
subject which ought not at present to be dealt with by any
private bill."
Mr. W. FORSTER objected to any legislation on the
subject as being without the practical sphere of the opera-
tions of the Houses of Parliament.

Mr. HORSFALL supported the bill and said that, not-
withstanding the great improvement which had taken
place in regard to measures for diminishing the means of
obtaining intoxicating liquors, he thought legislation on the
subject would be advisable. It appeared that intemperance
prevailed to a considerable extent in the district to which
the bill referred, and therefore it was desirable that the sub-
ject should bo dealt with by the Legislature.
Sir G. GREY supported the bill.
Mr. ROEBUCK opposed the bill, on the ground that the
subject to which it related should be dealt with by a public
and not a private bill.
Lord STANLEY contended that there was no ground for
introducing legislation on this subject, and dissented in toto
from the principle of the house proceeding to deal with a
general matter merely on local grounds as in the present
instance. He strongly objected to such bills as the pre-
sent, which proposed to deal by penal measures what really
should be considered by Parliament. He did not object to
legislation on this subject, but it must not be by a private
bill. (Hear, hear.)
The motion for the second reading of the bill was nega-
tived without a division.

NAVIGATION OF THE RIVER GODAVERY,
INDIA.

Mr. SMOLLETT asked the Secretary of State for India,
whether any despatches had recently been received re-
garding the works proposed for opening up the navigation
of the River Godavery ; and if he would only lay the same
upon the table of the house ; and, whether a flotilla on the
Godavery is now maintained at the expense of the
State ; and whether the Government of India is still re-
solved to persevere in carrying out the projects of the
local engineers, and at what estimated cost ?
Sir C. WOOD replied in the affirmative, and said that
the estimated cost of the works in question was £300,000.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

GREAT WESTERN.

The directors of this company will recommend to
the proprietors the following dividends for the six
months ending Jan. 31, 1865 :—Great Western ori-
ginal stock, at the rate of 31 per cent. per annum ;
Great Western (West Midland—Oxford) ordinary
stock, at the rate of 2 per cent. per annum ; Great
Western (West Midland—Newport) ordinary stock,
at the rate of 14 per cent. per annum ; Great Wes-
tern (West Midland—Hereford) ordinary
stock, at
the rate of 5 per cent. per annum ; Great Western
(South Wales) ordinary stock, at the rate 31 per
cent. per annum.

GREAT EASTERN.
The balance of the revenue of this company will
enable the directors to declare, at the proper time,
a dividend at the rate of 2i cent. per annum for the
half -year ending 31st December last.
The report of the directors showed that the total
receipts on revenue account for the past half-year
amounted to £881,526, and the total expenditure to
1427,805, leaving a balance of £453,721, out of
which was deducted £339,202 for rents and inte-
rest on guaranteed and preference stocks and on
mortgages, leaving a balance of £114,519. As
compared with the corresponding period of 1863, the
revenue account showed an increase of £46,506 ;
and the total increase in the receipts for the year
1864 exceeded those for 1863 by about £104,537.
The expenditure for the past half-year exceeded that
of the same period of 1863 by 119 804, which was
necessary to place the permanent ;ay and station
accommodation in a position equal to that of other
great companies. The net balance available for divi-
dend was £105,154, which was equal to the payment
of a dividend for the half-year at the rate of £2 10s.
per cent. per annum on the ordinary stock, leaving a
balance of £960. It was a source of greatregret to the
directors that they were not in a position now to de-
clare a dividend, in consequence of the new lines for
which Parliamentary powers were obtained in the
years 1861 and 1862 not being completed by the
time fixed by the Act of Parliament, and which pre-
vented the declaration of a dividend until they were
opened for traffic. They hoped, however, that those
lines would be opened within the next two months.
The directors had made arrangements with the Lan-
cashire and Yorkshire Railway Company for the
purpose of carrying out in conjunction with them
the formation of a railway for securing to this com-
pany an uninterrupted communication with the
north, and to the Lancashire and Yorkshire Com-
pany a direct communication with the port of Lon-
don and the eastern district generally. The next in
importance to an independent communication with
the north was the formation of an improved metro-
politan station, the want of which had so long been
found to trammel the carrying out the large traffic
conducted by this company, and which was pro-
gressingly increasing.

and it was expected that in a few weeks it would be
further opened to Friog, near Barmouth, and Pen-
maen, near Dolgelley. When completed from Bar-
mouth to Portmadoc and Pwllheli it would form
junctions with the Felt'

THE NEW CATTLE MARKET.

Mr. GIBBINS, the chairman of the Markets Committee,
brought up a report from that committee asking for the
sanction of the Court to enable them to apply to Parliament
for powers to devote the two large buildings at the Metro-
politan Cattle Market that were originally intended for
taverns or hotels, but it appeared never had been, and never
were likely to be devoted to that purpose, to some other
useful object. They had, it appeared, never been occupisd
since they were built, and no one could be found who would
rent them for their original object. It was necessary, how-
ever, that an application should be made to Parliament
before these buildings could be pulled down or any other
use made of them.

The report was agreed to.
THE CITY POLICE.

Mr. Deputy SNELLING moved that it be referred to the
Police Committee to inquire relative to the pay of the con-
stables of the City police force, with a view of ascertaining
whether it is desirable to make any, and if any, what addi-
tion thereto, and to report thereon forthwith.
Mr. PAYNE seconded the motion.
Mr. RICHARDSON expressed his opinion that if the ques-
tion of a fixed scale of superannuation was added to the
motion it would be very satisfactol y ; and that if the police
were made entitled to a certain amount of superannuation
allowance, it would have a tendency to keep good men in
the force. (Hear, hear.)
The motion was then agreed to.
Mr. JOHN STEWART then moved that the Town Clerk do
procure a return of the number of houses in the City which
are exempt from the inhabited house duty, and the rateable
value of the same, for the years 1854 and 1864 respectively,
and also a return of the number of houses which are left at
night without occupants, for the same years, with a state-
ment of the total rateable value of property in the City to
the police rate, and the amount in the pound of the police
rate for the last ton years, and that he be authorised to print
the same for circulation among the members of the Court.
The hon. member, in allusion to the recent robberies, said
he believed that in many instances the tenants of the pro-
perty in the City, by leaving it unoccupied, and consequently
unprotected, escaped the inhabited house duty altogether,
which would amount to more than what they paid for the
police rate. Their property was consequently left unpro-
tected, and the police were blamed for what was the almost
natural result.

The motion was agreed to.
Alderman SALOMONS, M.P., informed the Court that he
had introduced into Parliament a bill for the purpose of
purchasing the whole of the toll bridges in the metropOlis.
The measure was somewhat similar to the one he brought
forward last session, and a clause was introduced into it
giving the corporation the power to purchase Southwark
bridge if they should think fit to do so.
The court shortly afterwards adjourned.

HATFIELD AND ST. ALBAN'S.

The directors of this company state in their report
that satisfactory progress had been made by the
contractor with the works, and that hopes were en-
tertained that the railway would be ready for open-
ing early in the ensuing summer. The power for
raising capital provided by the Act of 1862 having
proved insufficient for all the requirements of the
railway, the directors had deemed it expedient to
apply to the Board of Trade (in compliance with the
Railway Companies' Powers Act of last Session) for
a certificate to enable them to raise additional share
capital to the amount of £15,000, with the usual
borrowing powers. The capital account showed
that £26,935 had been expended to the 31st of
December last.

rational Choral Society.

Last evening Haydn's magnificent oratorio " The
Creation" was given by the members of this society,
with the grandest effect. The founder of the society,
Mr. G. W. Martin, conducted the immense body
of choristers and instrumentalists ; and never, even
in this now celebrated place for the performance of
sacred music, has a finer performance taken place.
The soloists were Mr. Santley, Mr. Leigh Wilson,
and Miss Louisa Pyne, each of whom sang the
music allotted to their respective parts with fine
effect. The novel feature of the performance last
evening was the second appearance of Mr. Leigh
Wilson, the new tenor, and we at once say that ho
more than realised the high expectations formed of
him on his debut a short time ago in " Elijah." The
celebrated air, "In native worth," was executed
with great skill, and gave ample opportunity for the
full display of his fine voice. The audience were
ntr say, l'er
enraptured and insisted on the air being repeated.

we must just sin glc out one piece, "W ith verdure clad,"
which she rendered with marvellous power. Mr. Sant-
ley sang his part, as he alone can sing, " Rolling in
foaming billows," and " Now heaven in fullest
glory shone," eliciting the greatest applause. The
chorus and band were beyond praise, and well may
Mr. Martin feel a glow of pridewhen the hall fairly
echoes with the applause that invariably follows the
exertions of his talented choir. We, there-
fore, briefly sum up our praises, and say
the glorious choruses of Haydn were given in
a manner every way worthy of the composer,
and that in the National Choral Society we have
a musical boat of unparalleled ability.
