In answer to the charge, the prisoner said he IT I

he called to see him on the night in question.Y.E•
saw the complainant and his friend sitting in the
parlour drinking brandy and water, they were quite
drunk, and called for the liquor, five glasses at a
time. He denied the charge, and to show that he
was innocent one of the prosecutor's friends actually
wanted him to let him go, as he could not substantiate
the charge; the policeman heard that.
Coombs, 94 L, said he heard a man wish the pro.
secutor to let him go, as he had lost nothing, and it
would be a great trouble for him to attend at the
police court; the parts never said he was innocent.
Mr. SECKER said it was a case he should certainly
send to the sessions, but as other evidence was neces-
sary he should remand him for a week.

METROPOLITAN COMMISSION

OF SEWERS.

In pursuance of a requisition dated the 16th inst.,
signed by Mr. Leslie, the lion. Frederick Byng, arid
Mr. Bidwell, a special meeting of the Comrsiissioners
of Metropolitan Sewers was appointed to be held yes-
terday, at ten o'clock in the forenoon. The objects
of the meeting were this stated in the reluisition :-
1 "For the purposes of sseerfairting, from documentary
and other evidence, whether there be any truth in the
statements made by Mr. Chadn ick, at the Public Court
of Sewers, on the 2d instant, against the undersigned
commissioners for obstructing and misrepresenting- the
I very largo economy ' resulting from the present system
of contract' for removing by flushing of the soil from
e 1 the sewers at a cost of ' 6. per cubic yard;' for removal
of soil under the old Westminster Commission, the cost
was 7s. per cubic yard; and the undersigned were
approving members of such expenditure in that commis-
sion, thus exhibiting an alleged large economy' in
! favour of the present system of 6s. 6d. per cubic yard, be-
ing
,• a difference of 1,300 per cent.
"To ascertain the exact amount in thousands of pounds
11 of the money of the ratepayers already expended in the
flushing department, entirely omitted by Mr. Chadwick
in his statement of ' the very large economy ' of the pre-
: sent system of flushing the sewers by ' contract,' and to
ascertain what in reality such 'contract is.
" To ascertain from the account book of Assistant-
Surveyor Lovick (to whom, on the recommendation of
The Committee of Works,' the flashing department
has been for many months exclusively entrusted)
whether, during the 31 weeks of the present year to the
31st July, the yards lineal' of sewers flushed out in the
Surrey and Kent districts do not make a total of 214 i
miles, at a cost to the rate-payers of 10/. 6s. 4d. per
mile, independently of the district portions of the very
large omissions of expenditure by Mr. Chadwick in his
statements on the 2d inst.
"To ascertain if, beyond these omissions by Mr.
Chadwick, and beyond the 10/. 6s. 4d. per mile shown in
the account book of assistant-surveyor Lovick, the rate-
payers of the Surrey and Kent districts have not been
charged in the account of the contractor with the court
for those districts, Mr. Dethick, other large items of
expense connected with flushing, among which are
2,400 loads of soil carted away, at 2s. 6d. per load for
cartage only.
" To ascertain the number of times the same length
of sewer has been flushed out in the 31 weeks, each time
of such flushing costing the rate-payers on the general
average at the rate of 101. 6s. 4d. per mile.
" To ascertain if any of the sewers in any district are
flushed out three times a week.

"To investigate the ' specialcontracts' at per yard
lineal' entered into by Assistant-Surveyor Lovick and
the labourers, and to ascertain if any of the sewers under
such arrangements have had the soil washed into the
adjoining sewers at an expense to the rate payers equal
' to 3s. per cubic yard.
" And to take such immediate steps as the result of
the evidence to be submitted at such special court may
render necessary for the honour, character, and useful-
ness of the Metropolitan Commission of Sewers, and the
best interests of the Metropolitan rate-payers, confided
to the guardianship of the commission."
At the time appointed, two of the requisitionists,
Mr. Leslie and Mr. Bidwell, with Mr. Hume, M.P.,
and Sir John,Burgoyne, assembled in the court-room.
Mr. Byng, it was stated, was absent from town. In
an adjoining room there was Mr. Chadwick, Mr.
Johnson, Mr. Banfield, Dr. Southwood Smith, Mr
Hawes, Mr. Hodgson, Mr. Bain, and Sir Henry de
la Beche, none of whom appeared disposed to enter
the court-room, until a quorum, which is six, had
been formed. The Sewers Act of last session says
that if a quorum be not formed at the expiration of
one hour from the appointed time of meeting the
court shall be adjourned. Accordingly, at eleven
o'clock, Mr. Woolryche, the secretary, appeared at
the door, and, after stating the names of the gentle-
men who bad attended in their places, announced that
in consequence of there not being a quorum, the pro-
ceedings stood adjourned to Wednesday next.

PASSENGER TRAFFIC WITH

IRELAND.

LITERPOOL, FRIDA r.—A document has been issued
by the Lords of the Privy Council, onflurcing a new
code of regulations in relation to the carriage of pas-
sengers between Ireland and the British shores. The
communication is dated from the Council Chamber,
Whitehall, August 7, and contains the following
clamps

" 1. The number of deck passengers to be carried
by a paddle steamer, having no cargo on deck, shall
be one passenger to every ton of the builder's
tonnage.

'iv
-z‘olytti auult,
paddle-shalt, shall be one passenger to every regis.
tered ton.

"3. The number to be carried when cargo (not
live animals or poultry) is stowed abaft the paddle-
shaft, shall be tbree passengers to every two square
yards of clear space abaft the paddle-shaft.
" 4. The number to be carried when live animals
or poultry are stowed abaft the paddle-shaft shall be
fixed with reference to the arrangement of the vessel
and cargo, so as to provide, as nearly as possible, two
square yards for every three passengers, in a part of
the vessel separate from the cattle and live stock.

" 5. Screw steamers, in which the deck passengers
are allowed to go below, and are accommodated with
space on the lower deck fig one-half their numbers,
or on that on which the bulwarks are raised, and
a spar deck constructed so as to afford protection
to the passengers on deck, shall be licensed to carry
the same number of passengers in each case as paddle
steamers.

" 6. Screw steamers in which these provisions are
not made shall be licensed to carry only one passenger
to every four tons of the registered tonnage.
"7. The proportion of passengers to be carried in
the months of November, December, January, Feb-
ruary, and March shall be two-thirds the number al-
lowed in the other months."

Captain Denham has also addressed a memorandum
to the owners of steamers employed in the convey-
ance of passengers, recommending additional regula-
tions, as follows :
Customhouse, Liverpool, Aug. 10.
" I am commanded by the Lords of the Committee
of Privy Council for Trade to strongly impress upon
the owners of steam-vessels employed in the convey-
ance of passengers the propriety of making some
provision for the health and cleanliness of those on
board, by furnishing them with a sufficient supply of
tarpaulings to protect them from the weather, and
from the washing of the sea, and also by providing
water-closets for their use.

"Although my Lords have not thought it neces-
sary to make these provisions compulsory, as they
might do, by refusing certificates till they should be
complied with, they nevertheless attach great im-
portance to them, and will bear the subject in mind
with a view to future legislation, should they find, by
experience, that a necessity exists for more stringent
provisions to compel the adoption of these reasonable
measures.

" H. M. DENHAM, Captain R.N.,
" Steam Navigation Inspector."

THE PIRATES OF BORNEO AND SIR JAMES
BROOKE.—Advices from Labuan to the 22d June are of
the most gloomy nature, owing to the prevalence of
fever, which was general. In the list of persona attacked
and still suffering when the Nemesis quitted the island,
were the officials, excepting the Lieutenant-Governor,
the European non-official residents, and the natives em-
ployed in Government works or on the coal seam. Her
Majesty's ship Royalist, acting as guardship, bad suf-
fered severely; the commander and three officers, and
twenty of the crew were on the fever list, and one of the
crew had died of the Labuan fever. The Governor,
Sir James Brooke, had returned from his visit to the
island of Zulu, where he had succeeded in making 4
