Sir ROBERT CARDEN supported the amendment.

Mr. Alderman and Colonel WILSON thought that
neither the motion nor the amendment would satisfy
the deputation.

The amendment on being put to the Court was
lost, and the original motion carried, and the Court
adjourned.

-e•
At the weekly meeting of the Commissioners of
Sewers, held yesterday in the Sewers Court-zoom at
Guildhall, Dr. Letheby, the medical officer, reported
on the state of 169 houses that had been inspected
during the week, and he submitted a list of 100
places for sanatory improvement, and also submitted
a list of places for further proceedings, on account
of orders already issued and not yet complied with.
The market and slaughter-houses had been duly in-
spected during the week, and 3,8801b5. of meat had
been seized as unfit for human food. It consisted of
19 sheep, 1 calf, 3 pigs, 20 qrs. of beef, and 11 joints
of meat ; 3,3261b5. were diseased, and 6541b5. were
from animals that had died from natural causes.

Seventy-four births and 57 deaths were registered
during the week. The number of deaths was below
the average for the corresponding week of the last
six years ; 18 of the deaths were among children of
less than five years of age, and 14 among old persons
of 60 and upwards. The chief causes of death were
as follows Phthisis, 7 ; mesenteric disease, 1 ;
pneumonia, 2 ; bronchitis, 9 ; continued fever, 6 ;

Mr. H. L. TAYLOR informed the Court that the
precept issued by the Metropolitan Board of Works
amounting to upwards of £16,000, for the main
drainage rate, which was duo on the 25th ult., and
which it was reported at the last court had not been
paid, had, since the meeting of the last court, been
duly paid by the chairman.

A discussion ensued, in which it was urged that
in future the collectors should be requested to collect
the rates at an earlier period, in order that the pre-
cept might be met on the day it became due.

The CUAIRMAN laid before the Court for signa-
ture a petition, which had been agreed to at a pre-
vious against the bill for embanking the north side
of the Thames. The chairman stated that the object
of the petition was to give that commission a locus
standiin order to be heard against the provisions of
the bill, if it should he thought desirable that it
Should be opposed.
The petition was then signed, and after transact-
ing aurae routine business the Court adjourned.
