from visiting the Duke of 'Wellington at Strathfieldsaye.
His

t.rom joining the distinguished circle assembled at Strath-
held!aye to meet the Prince of Prussia, owing to his
"fh elai eDgagiments detaining him in to.tn. His Royal
Highness on Thursday afternoon granted an audience

HEALTH OF TOWNS BILL.—A public meeting was
held yesterday at the Guildhall of the city of Rochester,
for the purpose of considering the Bill for promoting the
public health, which is now before Parliament. The
chair was taken by the taayor of the city, Richard
Winch, Esq. 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 functions;
that the taxation and local government would be wrested
from the city, and placed in the hands of is tipendary
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 intervention of any such
board as contemplated by the Bill. A petition to
Parliament against the Bill was unanimously adopted.
