HEALTH OF TOWNS 1111. T..—A public meeting was
held yesterday at the Guildhall of the city of Rochester,
fur the purpose of considering the Bill for promotir", the
public health, which is now before Parliament. The
chair was taken by the mayor of the city, Richard
, Winch, E,q. Several leading gentlemen of the city and
neighbourhood were present, and addressed the meeting.
It was argued that the Bill would deprive the municipal
government of the city of their constitutional tinetions;
that the taxation and local government would b. 'rested
from the city, and placed in the bands of stipenclary
nominees of the Crown; that such expensive machinery
as this Bill would. entail was uncalled for; and that
sanitary arrangements. by the local authorities are of
easy attainment, without the interveution of any each
board u contemplated by the Bill. A petition to
I Parliament against the Bill was maisious4 adopted.
