"PREVIOUS MEETING" OF THE COUUT

OF COMAION COUNCIL.

Yesterday afternoon the " previous meeting" of
the members of the Corporation elected on St.
Thomas's-day was held in the Council Chamber at
Guildhall, under the presidency of Mr. Deputy
Jones, the " Father" of the Court.
The business of yesterday's meeting was princi-
pally of a formal character, and related to the alte-
rations which the members of the several wards
recommended should be made in their share of re-
presentatives for the Corporation committees. These
alterations are rendered necessary from various
causes, including the death or removal of old mem-
bers, expiration of term of original appointment,
change of cow mittee, &c. The changes recommended
at yesterday's meeting were approved, and the re-
sults will be brought up for ratification at the meet-
ing of the Court of Common Council, to be held to-
day, when the several committees will be appointed
for the ensuing year. At this meeting several sub-
jects of public importance will be brought forward.
Perhaps the most important is that relating to the
water supply of the City, and the report of the
Royal Commission on the subject, no less than three
notices of motion having been given in reference to
it. The first is
By Mr. Deputy Stapleton :—" That it be referred
to a committee to make inquiry and consider rela-
tive to the steps which should be taken to secure a
constant supply of water to the inhabitants of this
City at a reasonable charge."
By Mr. John Paterson—" That the question of
the water supply of this city, together with the re-
port of the Royal Commission on same subject in
respect of the metropolis, be referred to a commit-
tee for consideration, and to report thereon, with
such recomuieuaativ.... tboy mwy lam necessary
to insure a better supply-as regards quantity, quality,
cheapness, and mode of service."
The third notice of motion, which is by Mr. Whin-
field bora, is as follows :—" That it be referred to
a committee to take into consideration the report
of the Royal Commission on the water supply of
London, with the view of ascertaining the desira-
bility and practicability of carrying out the recom-
mendations made by the commission to transfer the
supply of water to the metropolis from the bands
of private companies to the local authorities, and
to report thereon."

ILIARKEIS—(This Day).

----~-

The supply of stock at the Metropolitan Cattle Market
to-day was short, and the weather favourable. The trade
was firmer in consequence, but the demand was checked
by the full supplies of dead meat at Smithfield. Beef, 3s
8d to 5s 4d per bibs ; mutton, 4s 4d to 6s ; veal, 4s 4d to 6e
4d; pork, 48 4d to 5s 4d.
The sugar market continues quiet, and prices remain
without further change. Refined goods dull. Coffee—
Prices continue to be well supplied, sod a good demand is
still
experienced. Mess—The market is firm for all de-
scriptions, with a good current demand. Rice is quiet but
steady.

The supplies of baystuffs at Whitecliapel were large,
and tho trade dull, at the decline quoted last market
day.

The very extensive Distillery now being erected
at Belfast, with all recent improvements for the manufacture of
Irish whisky, by Moms. DUNVILLE & Co., who have gained
a world-wide celebrity for their fine old Irish whisky, is to be
called '• The Royal Irish Distillery,"
