THE METROPOLIS GAS QUESTION.—A meeting
of the delegates from the metropolitan parishes was held
yesterday evening at:the St. James's vestry:; Mr. Stratton,
of Lambeth, in the chair. It was announced that the
vestry of Chelsea had contributed £230 to the expense of
supporting the bill, and had voted a further guarantee of
£lOO. Mr. Beale announced that the vestry of St. James
had voted a guarantee of £5OO, and the vestry of Newing-
ton £lOO. He then proceeded to state the means which
the opponents of the measure were taking to defeat it. On
Tuesday their influence had thrown over the bill by a count-
out, and the Government were not powerful enough to meet
the great interest brought to bear upon the question. The
House of Lerds had fixed the 27th instead of the 23d of
July for receiving such bills, so that the parishes had still
an opportunity if they exerted all their influence, to carry
their point. He bad presented a petition to the House of
Commons upon the subject, complaining of the character
of the opposition, and referring to the 4anding order which
prevented members voting in committees in matters
in
which they were directly interested. The representatives of
the delegates had done all they coul I to shame the House of
Commons into proceeding with the question, but the cor-
ruption was so flagrant, and the opponents talked so
positively as to their power, that no one could
be certain as to the result. The bill was now
practically adjourned till Tuesday. Mr. Lamb moved,
and Mr. Watkins seconded, a resolution, directing the
hon. secretary to communicate with town councils
throughout the kingdom, inviting their co-operation, their
interest in the question being identical with that of the
metropolis.—On the motion of Mr. Lamb, seconded by Mr.
Duff, a further direction was given to Mr. Beale to corn-
, municate with the City of London OR the subject,
