COMMISSIONERS OF SEWERS.
(THIS DAY.)

The new Metropolitan Commissioners of Sowers Irk ld
their first meeting this afternoon, tat the Sewers-office, in
Greek-street, Soho. There was a very full attendance
of members, amongst whom were the Earl of Carlisle,
Lord Ebrington, Joseph Hume, Esq., M.P., Hon. F.
Byng, E. Chadwick, Esq., C.B , Dr. Southwood Smith,
Lambert Jones, Esq., Dr. Buckland, and John Leslie, Esq.

. _
The Earl of CARLISLE was elected President of the
Commission, and having taken the chair, said, it had been
a subject of regret that, in consequence of legal and
technical difficulties, the opening of the new Commission
had not taken place some time ago, but they could only
strive by increased diligence and exertions to make up
for the time which had been lost. He thought any one
who scrutinized the list of those who composed it would
perceive that its selection had been guided by a wish to
comprise within its numbers persons qualified by pre-
vious experience, and of high attainments, and whose
successful exertions in the general cause of sanitary re-
form entitled them to the consideration of Government, but
the best vindication of the composition of the Commission
would be the future efficient performance of its functions.
It could not be said that they commenced their labours
t-t an ordinary time, or under common circumstances,
for though the metropolis had certainly not been exten-
sively visited by the baneful cholera, they c ,old not be
sure whether its destructive energies might not at pre-
sent be bound by the strong hand of winter, and that
when the spring came on, it might not fall upon them
with a hundredfold power. From what had just oc-
curred at Tooting much was to be feared, but he trusted
the Commission would take care that the workhouses of
the metropolis were more carefully examined. The
Government had recently constituted a general Board of
Health, and he thought it was most desirable that that
Board and this Commission should establish an inter-
change of reciprocity and good offices, and with this
view it was proposed that one of their chief officers
should hold a continual communication with both Boards.
The business of the Court was then proceeded with.
The officers of the former Commission were provisionally
re- appointed. Mr. Stubbes, however, the treasurer, being
desirous of retiring, a committee was appointed to
consider his case. A gratuity of 2501. was voted to
Mr. Hertzlet, the secretary, for increased exertions
under the old board, 250/. to Mr. How, the surveyor, and'
2001. to Mr. Phillip, the sub-surveyor. The solicitors
were directed to retain Sir John Henderson as the
standing counsel of the Commission, and complaint
books were ordered to be kept at all the offices of the
Commission. The meetings of the Commission were
then ordered to be held the first Thursday in every
month; and thanks having been voted to the Noble
Chairman, the Commission adjourned till next Tuesday.

• SPECTATOR, DECEMBER 2, 1848.
This gigantic volume of business and residential information has
now completed its half century, or year of jubilee; and is, we sup-
pose, unrivalled in tl.e variety, utility, and precision of its facts.
Upwards of two thousand pages In double and treble columns are
here presented, touching the names, callings, and abodes of people in
business, or out of it, classified in every way to facilitate reference,
besides particular information concerning public offices, official men,
conveyances, bankers, and the Post-ofElce.

ATLAS, DECEMBER 2, 1848.
We look upon this book as a national blessing. Who has not
found the use of it? who has net turned the information it contains
to profitable account? It is now in the jubilee year of its existence,
and, if possible, is more complete in its details than any of its pre-
decessors. Its amplitude and eorrectness are marvellous ; and that
they are duly appreciated we need no better proof than the fact of
the übiquity of its presence. Go where you will you are sure to
meet it. It is impossible to live a week in London without feeling
the want of such a work.

LITERARY GAZETTE, DECEMBER 9, 1848.
Two thousand and eighty-eight pages comprise this volume,
which, we believe, we may safely affirm, could only relate to Eng-
land and be made in England ; for all the world besides could not
supply such matter, nor tarnish such means for making it tho-
roughly known and easily found. The production of a newspaper is
a daily wonder —the "Post-office Directory" is an annual one. The
information collected is prodigious, the arrangement as near as pos-
sible to perfection, and as far as we can test it by many references,
the details accurate to a nicety beyond euloglum. Everybody is
aware of what this Iliad, not in a nutshell, but for its intelligence
incredibly compressed, consists; and therefore we will not enter
into the particulars, but merely say that all official, social, com-
mercial, legal, parliamentary, courtly, and other information
which may be required for conveniency, business, or pleasure, in
this unbounded Babylon of ours, is here; most useful and complete
in every branch and department.

CONVICTION UNDER THE TEN HOURS ACT, MAN-
CHESTER.-Yesterday, at the Manchester Borough
Court, before Messrs. Maude, Walker, and Sharpe, the
Messrs. W. P. Clarke and Co. were summoned for a
violation of the Ten Hours Act, by allowing a number
of females over the age of 18 years to work in their mill
more than ten hours per day. There were four infor-
mations exhibited against the Messrs. Clarke. The
first was for having allowed Sarah and Mary Wells to
work for more than ten hours on the 22d of December
last. Mr. Cobbett, who appeared to prosecute, briefly
stated the facts of the case. On the 22d of December
the two Wells's commenced working at half-past five
o'clock in the morning, and continued to work until
half-past eight o'clock in the evening, without any in-
termission, except an hour and forty minutes allowed for
meals. They were, therefore, worked for upwards of
13 hours and 20 minutes. John Percival, who stated
that he worked in the mill of the Messrs. Clarke, proved
the charge, and his testimony was corroborated by other
witnesses. Three other cases of a similar nature were
proved against the Messrs. Clarke, and a penalty of 60s.
in each case was inflicted, with costs. The penalties
and costs will amount to 251.

SUGAR CANES.—An importation of a considerable
quantity of sugar canes has recently taken place by one
of the steamers arrived at the port of Southampton. This
is a somewhat unusual and remarkable importation, and
is of some interest, although such arrivals have, we be-
lieve, taken place into the metropolis, direct from the
West Indies.
London, England, 1849-01-10

tween the Governments of Spain and the United States,
in reference to the sale and purchase of Cuba, bad again
been brought up, but its passage was oppostd on the
ground that it would interfere with the Pr.sident's pre-
rogative, &e. The matter bad been passed over, but not
definitively settled.

A Bill to admit articles of the growth and production
of Canada into the United States free of duty, upon con-
dition that like articles of the growth and production of
the United States be admitted into Canada, was before
the Senate. It passed the Home of Representatives last
session, and there appears to be no doubt that it will
now become law.

The New York Journal of Commerce says—" The
character of the tariff debate in the House leads to the
conclusion that it is not really intended to repeal the
tariff of 1846, and to restore that of 1842 this session,
even so far as the action of the House is concerned."
Lewis Cass, jun., had been nominated Minister to
Rome, but it is said the nominatioa would not be con-
firmed. Mr. Servier had been nominated as Commis-
sioner on the part of the United States, to run and mark
the boundary between the United States and Mexico.
The steam-ship Panama, which sailed from New York
for California on the Ist of December, put back to that
port on the 24th with her machinery damaged.
The cholera had broken out at New Orleans, and
one case is said to have occurred at Staten Island. At
the former place, on the 16th ult., there were 11 new
cases and seven deaths. On the 20th it was still in-

creasing.

The advises from Venezuela represent the state of
the country as being in a very deplorable condition.
The partizans of Mongas and Paez have sworn to ex-
terminate each other. The papers contain various re-
ports of the successes achieved by the forces of General
Pees in the capture of Maracaibo, and in several engage-
ments that took place in Camana. The provinces of
Truxillo and Mereda have pronounced against Mongas.
The commercial accounts furnished are scarcely so
favourable as those last received. The Stock Market is
described as having been less active, with au increase in
the demand for money consequent upon the closing of
the year, when payments are usually large. A com-
parison of the prices current at the departure of the
last steamer and the present exhibits a decline in
Treasury notes of I per cent. There was an active
demand for bills for remittance by the Niagara, and
the supply was limited, holders appearing to wait for
the 10th January packet, in the expectation that there
would be more calls for bills to meet the interest on
bonds, stocks, &c. The quotation for bills on London
ranged from 1081 to 109. In the New York Cotton
Market no change is reported, and there was very little
business doing. At New Orleans the accounts taken
out from this by the Canada had bad a favourable effect
upon the market, and caused an increase of business,
with an upward tendency in prices.

HERAPATH'S RAILWAY JOURNAL, DECEMBER 9, 1848,

There is no work of the day, in the nature of a compilation,
equal to this, both in regard to the labour bestowed upon it and
utility to the public. It has new become an authentic means of en-
abling one part of the inhabitants of this great metropolis to know
the abodes of their fellows.
It has been said, that whatever is formed for long duration arrives
slowly to maturity. The Directory has been fifty years in a con-
dition of growth, and, by its appearance and contents, we should
judge, has arrived at maturity; therefore it is but reasonable to
conclude that its existence will be long and flourishing.
Of the half century the " Directory" has been published, it has
been twelve years in the hands of the Messrs. Kelly ; and it is within
this period the work has acquired its high position—a position so
distinguished, that it attracted some time since even the loving
attention of Government, and would no doubt have fallen late its
hands, but for the difficulty of yearly producing a work of equal
utility to the public, and of making the price at which it is sold re •
munerative for the labour devoted upon it.

lIERAPATII'S RAILWAY JOURNAL, DECEMBER 9, 1848

There is no work of the day, in the nature of a compilation,
equal to this, both in regard to the labour bestowed upon it and
utilly to the public. It has now become an authentic means of en-
abling one part of the inhabitants of this great metropolis to know
the abodes of their fellows.

It has been said, that whatever is formed for long duration arrives
slowly to maturity. The Directory has been fifty years in a con-
dition of growth, and, by its appearance and contents, we should
judge, has arrived at maturity; therefore it is but reasonable to
conclude that its existence will be long and flourishing.
Of the half century the " Directory" has been published, it has
been twelve years in the hands of the Messrs. Kelly ; and it is within
this period the work has acquired its high position—a position so
distinguished, that it attracted some time since even the loving
attention of Government, and would no doubt have fallen into its
hands, but for the difficulty of yearly producing a work of equal
utility to the public, and of making the price at which it is sold re-
munerative for the labour devoted upon It.

France, and the King of Naples, for the purposes of re-
storing to the Pope his temporal power, had been re-
solved upon. The Patrie of the 24th contradicted this
statement. The Reforme, however, again makes it. The
assertion is completely unfounded."
An evening papers says—
It is announced that the Pope, wishing to avoid
forei4n intervention, intends to try a personal step. He
will, it is said, go to Civita Vecchia, and there make
an appeal to the people, which if not responded to, things
will take their course."
The members of the club of the Palais des Beaux Arts
have determined to oppose the motion of M. RATEAU
for the dissolution of the National Assembly ; to op-
pose any attempt to affix a period for the dissolution
of the Assembly, and to maintain the decree of the
Assembly on the subject of passing the organic laws
to its full extent.

The PRESIDENT of the Republic gave yesterday, at
the Elys‘e Palace, a grand fete to the President and
officers of the National Assembly.
The Committee of the National Assembly charged
to prepare the organic law on education met yester-
day and commenced the discussion. The members
who spoke agreed fully on the following points, viz.,
the principle of gratuitous education, and the compul-
sion to receive primary instruction.
It is said that the PRESIDENT of the Republic has
offered the Duchess of ORLEANS the apanage to
which she was entitled whilst resident in France. _

The election of Colonel of the 10th Legion of the
National Guard of Paris terminated on Monday in
the appointment of the Legitimist candidate, General
LAURISTON, by 1,952 votes, to 1,017 given to M.
RAMOND DE LA CROISETTE, and 451 to General ST.
SIMON. _ _

The Toulonnais of the 3d instant announces that
the French mail packet Egyptus had been driven on
shore in a gale of wind on the coast of Malta, but that,
thanks to the prompt assistance afforded by the
British ship of the line Vengeance, she was saved
from her perilous position, with some trifling damage.

LITERARY GAZETTE, DECEMBER 9, 1843

Two thousand and eighty-eight pages comprise this volume,
which, we believe, we may safely affirm, could only relate to Eng-
land and be made in England ; for all the world besides could not
supply such matter, nor furnish such means for making it tho-
roughly known and easily found. The production of a newspaper is
a daily wender —the "Post-office Directory" is an annual one. The
information collected is prodigious, the arrangement as near as pos-
sible to perfection, and as far as we can test it by many references,
the details accurate to a nicety beyond eulogiam. Everybody is
aware of what this Iliad, not in a nutshell, but for its intelligence
incredibly compressed, consists; and therefore we will not enter
into the particulars, but merely say that all official, social, com-
mercial, legal, parliamentary, courtly, and other information
which may be required for coavenicncy, business, or pleasure, in
this unbounded Babylon of ours, is here; most useful and complete
in every branch and department.

DEFERRED ANNUITIES.

By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to
afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con-
tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or,
at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives.
The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
tages which the judicious application of a small saving case secure
through this Society.

SPAIN.

Madrid journals of the 3d have arrived.
The cause of the retirement of General CONCHA
from the command in Catalonia is said to be the dis-
gust which he experienced on discovering how com-
pletely he had been misled by the Ministry as to the
state of the province and the strength of the Carlist
forces. His successor, VILLALONGA is, it is said,
about to adopt a hazardous experiment : believing that
the Catalans refuse to aid the QUEEN'S troops because
they are gainers by the war, he is about to levy con-
tributions for the support of the war on the inhabit-
ants of the province, and to destroy villages, &c., as
he did in the Maestrazgo• The effect of such a
course will be to force the Catalans to rise en masse
and join the Carlists, a course which they are very
well inclined to pursue even without such provocation.
Solsona is blockaded by the Carlists.
The Gageta contains the summary of a dispatch
from General CONCHA, dated Vich, 26th ult., which
says that the Carlists, under CABRERA, ESTARTUS, and
other chiefs, attacked Ripoll on the niglit of the 24th,
and succeeded in entering for a moment, but were
repelled by the garrison, with the loss of several
killed and wounded.
The Journal du Peuple of Bayonne, of the sth
instant, quotes a letter from Burgos of the 2d, stating
that on that day 54 wounded, including a commander
of the QUEEN'S troops, had arrived in that city.
They brought with them four Carlist prisoners, one of
whom, desperately wounded, expired shortly after
his admission into the hospital. The three others
were placed in capilla, and were to be shot on the
following morning. Those men were wounded in an
engagement which took place in the neighbourhood
of Lerma, between the Queen's troops and a new
Carlist chief, named EL TAMBOR.
The new journal, the Examen, the organ of the
Moderado Opposition, is unceasing and unrelenting
in its attacks on NAEVAEZ.

_ • __
The Journal du Peuple of the 6th announces that
the company of Chasseurs stationed at Irun, the
Custom officers, and gendarmes, had been suddenly
summoned to Toloso, during the night of the 2d, in
consequence, it was believed, of some insurrectionary
movement in Navarre.
