Viscount CHELSEA. rose to ask the Attorney-
General whether he had not given it as his opinion that
by the proiisions of the Metropolis Local Management
Act 18 and 19 Victoria, c. 129, sec. 8, all existing res.
tries, Whether general or otherwise, were super, eded, and

statement relative to an interview he had had with the
Attorney-General, amidst interruption from several hon.

ment of the house.

The ATTQRNEY-GENERAL said he was not pre-
pared for the obsertations of the hon. member. He had
givin the opinion the hon. member had statei on this

him if he thought that opinion was given without di-

as absolutely necessary.

METROPOLITAN BOA kaD OF WORKS.

Meeting Them Day.

The usual weekly meeting of the board was held this
afternoon at the Council Chain:lber, Guildhall ; Mr. J
Thwaites in the chair.

The minutes of the previous meeting were read over
and confirmed.
#ITHS AND WASH', HOUSES.

1.. deputation from the conana.ittee for promoting the
estAblishment of public baths amid wash•houses, consist-
ing of the Rev. Sir 11. R. Dunk;csfield, Bart., chairman,
Mr. W. Hawes, deputy chairman), and Mr. J. Bullar,
secretary, presented a isemorisel to the beard on the
establishmeat of baths and waskelhouses. The memorial
amongst other things stated th it during 1853 and 1854
there were upwards of 1,200,000 baths supplied at the
different establishments already existing in the metro-
polis, and that 2,000,000 of persons had used them ler
washing. It suggested that thiis board should apply to
Parliament for permissive poweir s with reference to tine
establishment of these places in 'the metropolis, the ex-
penses to be borne by a general. rate ma the metropolis .
The existing establishments sho t:t.tdbe at liberty to eleot
whether they should continue Render their present ma-
nagement, or come under that of this board.
The Rev. Sir H. R. Durnms FIELD, Bart., in address.
ing the board said that it was an admitted truth that
baths and wash houses were as great a blessing to the
poorer classes as hospitals or ether charitable institu-
tions. It was a modern inventiiem, but partook of that
philanthropic progress which ri narked the present age.
The committee considered that when it was recollected
that the advantages of baths mil wash-houses were more
of a general character than locfs?, the Board would see
the necessity and propriety of t aking this question into
consideration, and acceding to this prayer of the memo-
rial. It was feared that without baths and wash-I cues
were established in the manner proposed by the m.mo-
rialists, the poor would soon be deprived of the blessing
they derived from them. Unfbrtunately they only at
present paid their working expenses, leaving nothing
for the liquidation of the origisal outlay for their con-
strst Alen.

In reply to questions from the Chairman,
The Rev. Sir H. R. DuzuxrELD, Bart., paid that an
estimhis of the expense had been made, and it was con-
sidered that a farthing in the pun ad on the rental would
be bond sufficient for their ere, ion and support. The
committee thought that one ,establishinent centrally
situated and easy of access mould be sufficient for a
number of parishes.
After soma further remarkac the memorial was re-
ceived and the deputation wither ew.

IVILERLIT NEW2,—(This Day.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

A very limited supply of English wheat was on sale in
to-day's market, coastwise and by land carriage, For most
kinds, we had a steady, though ❑oi to say brisk, demand,
and, in some instances, Monday's quotations were exceeded
by 35 to 4s per quarter.
Foreign wheat—the imports of which are 6,620 quarter
—was firm, at full quotations. The amount of businetS
doing in it, however, was by no means extensive.
We had a good demand for barley, at very full prices.
Malt sold slowly, at tke late decline in value.
We were well supplied with oats, and the trade for theta
was heavy, at barely stationary prices.
Beans, peas, and flour moved off steadily, at very ful
currencies.

of this evening, overlooks the letter which I addressed

my retirement may not have been officially notified to

it had long previously been placed among the records of

NEW PREMIUM ON ENLISTM ENT.

We announce with the greatest, satisfaction that
Lord Panmure has obtained the sanction of the Crown
to a measure of vital importance to the success of re•
cruitiog for the army. A warrant Will immediately be

issued granting to soldiers the bounty Money, with Out
the deduction of a single shilling on account of neces-
saries. An entire kit will be given to the soldier at the
public expense. On the score of expediency this is com-
mendable, but the measure merits the higher praise of
being fair and just to the soldier. A very considerable
number of men embrace the service in the conviction
that they are to receive the bounty in full. find
Accordingly,
when they aro enlisted and come to be paid, they
to their consternation, they are to he mulct a third,
dand
often one-half the amount, to supply them with uner-
clothing, and certain other articles of equipment. This
naturally creates discontent—a feeling at all Ernesto be
avoided, and especially at the commencement of a sol-
dier's career. lie may have entered the service ex-
pressly to make certain home uses of the immediate
price of his sacrifice of his freedom, and when he finds
that that object is unattainable by the heavy deduction
to which he has been subjected, he is naturally soured,
and his whole career becomes coloured by his early dis-
satisfaction. Lord PaTIMUre has distinguished his ad-
ministration by many measures of sound policy and
liberality, and in the one now about to be promulgated
he has exceeded all his previous efforts to render the
army popular—United Service Gazette.

EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY.

TO THE EDITOR OF TEE SUN.
Siff,—Mr. Bruce, in his communication to your journal
of this evening, overlooks the letter which I addressed
to the board of the Eastern Counties Railway Company,
on the 25th of July last, on the subject of the East Suf-
folk line. After that date I substantially retired from
the chair of the Norfolk Railway Company ; and though
my retirement may not have been officially notified to
the Eastern Counties board until the Ist of November,
it bad long previously been placed among the records of
the Norfolk Company.--I am, Sir, your obedient servant,

GIBRALTAR IN 1855.

" Fortunately, it is not likely that Gibraltar will have
to stand a siege, for if it had, I believe it would be found
to be in a most disgraceful state. The precipice which
looks towards Spain, and which our ancestors burrowed
with such persevering energy, is armed with pop-guns.
There is not even a 68-pounder in the whole line of gal-
leries. Gibraltar is full of enormous stores of military
weapons, which are to the improved military science of
the resent day what the arms of Montezuma were to
those of Cortes."

Gibraltar ought assuredly to be looked to—not-
withstanding the author's belief that it is not likely
to have to stand a siege. The very carbines of the
artillerymen, we are informed, are " entirely use-
less." The book, though tinctured with some
prejudices, contains much valuable matter, and
altogether is likely to attain a not unmerited po-
pularity. In a succeeding edition, should one be
called for, as is not improbable, we trust care will
be taken, in justice to the public and the author,
to correct the abounding if excusable defects of the
work. We have only to add that a map, showing
the lines of route, fronts the title-page, and a large
sketch of the siege operations before Sebastopol
will be found as au appendix.

Thorn's Irish Almanac and Official Directory.
Dublin : Alexander Thom and Sons.
Comprises a British, a Parliamentary, a Peerage
and Baronetage, a Naval and Military, a Colonial,
a Government offices, a University, a Scientific and
Literary, an Ecclesiastical, a Law, a Banking,
a Postal and Conveyance.. a County and Borough,
and a Dublin City and County Directory, in all
no fewer than thirteen Directories, each and all
ample and indicative of praiseworthy labour, and
regard for accuracy. In addition to these, and the
matter usually to be found in the best class of
Almanacs will be found a variety of useful infor-
mation, including " Statistics of Ireland," an im-
portant desideratum to such as are desirous of

becoming acquainted with tho condition of the
Sister Isle, or need a book of reference. In con-
nection with the General Post-office Directory will
be found a map of Dublin on a scale of 4i inches
to a statute mile—showing the Borough boundary
and the boundaries of the several wards as now
constituted. Altogether the work is one likely to
do good service during the present year, and is de-
serving of even more populanty than was achieved
by its predecessors.

NEW PREMIUM ON ENLISTMENT.

We announce with the greatest satisfaction that I
Lord Panmure has obtained the sanction of the Crown
to a measure of vital importance to the success of re-
cruiting for the army. A warrant will immediately be
issued granting to soldiers the bounty money, without
the deduction of a single shilling on account of neces-
saries. An entire kit will be given to the soldier at the
public expense. On the score of expediency this is com-
mendable, but the measure merits the higher praise of
being fair and just to the soldier. A very considerable
number of men embrace the service in the conviction
.
that they are to receive the bounty in full. A ceordmgly,
when they are enlisted and come to be paid, they find
to their consternation, they are to be mulct a third, and
otten one-half the amount, to supply them with under-
clothing', and certain other articles of equipment. This
naturally creates discontent—a feeling at all times to be
avoided, and especially at the commencement of a sol-
dier's career. lie may have entered the service ex-
pressly to make certain home uses of the immediate
price of his sacrifice of his freedom, and when he finds
that that object is unattainable by the heavy deduction
to which he has been subjected, he is naturally soured,
and his whole career becomes coloured by his early dis-
satisfaction. Lord Panmure has distinguiehed his ad-
ministration by many measures of sound policy and
liberality, and in the one now about to be promulgated
he has exceeded all his previous efforts to render the
army popular.—United Service Gazette.

STANDING ORDBR AS TO MEMBERS.

Mr. HALL, pursuant to notice, moved, "That it be a
by-law, or standing order, that no member shall be
eligible for any office of emolument in the gift of the
board." He was proceeding to state the grounds on
which be made the motion, when
The PRESIDENT suggested that it would be more con-
venient if be would refer the question to the committee
on by-laws, where he would raise it in such a manner as
would be consistent with the act of Parliament, and best
accomplish the object he bad in view.

The suggestion-of the president was speed to, and
the meeting adjourned to Friday next at 12 o'clock.

THE CASK OF Da. VAUGHAN.—It will be recollected
that in this case the defendant obtained ex parte a writ
of certiorari, from Mr. Justice Crompton, removing the
indictment and proceedings from the Central Criminal
Court trto the Queen's Bench. An application was
then made to Mr. Baron Platt to rescind that order, and
that a writ of procedendo should issue to remove the
proceedings back, but the learned judge, although ho
expressed himself strongly, declined to interfere with
Mr. Justice Crompton's order, leaving the parties to
apply to the full mum. Since then a notice has been
ftrverl upon the defendant's solicitors, that application
will be made for a rule absolute in the first instance,
for the issuing of the writ of procedendo, and which op-
plieation was fixed for to-day. On Thursday the
Attorney-General, Mr. Ballantine, and Mr. Prideaux,
the counsel retained for Dr. Vaughan, held a consulta-
tion at Westminster Hall, on the subject of appearing
and opposing the rule, they contending it is a proper
case to be heard ou the ,Crown side of the Queen's
Bench. Mr. Bodkin and • Mr. Clarkson will support
the application for the rule. The case is one of much
Ina portanze.

jeopardy. We may destroy Nicolaieff, blockade
Kherson, and become masters of the Crimea, and
of, sit all events, the most important portion of
Bessarabia. But if lulled into a state of apathy
—if " hecussed" by the administration of a nar-
cotic so insidious, all these palpable advantages
may be disregarded, and the golden opportunity
suffered to slip by without improvement.

There cannot, then, be an armistice while the
' coutem plata negotiations are pending. We may
feel perfectly certain that Russia would improve
the occasion to the utmost possible degree—that
she would not relax a single effort either in the
way of increasing the strength of her fortifi-
cations, and means of resistance against
any i evasion of her territory, or of her own
power of aggression. She can be certain of, at
least, one of the most important elements in the
calculation—can know whether she is really sin-
cere in her professions—whether they are in-
tended to form the basis of a permanent peace or
are merely intended to effect a diversion, exceed-
ingly convenient to Russia, but in an equal degree
injurious to the Allies. On that all-important
question the Cabinets of the Tuileries and
St. James's must be absolutely ignorant, although
we can by no means assert a similar ignorance on
the part of Austria. It is therefore essential that
we should carefully avoid so serious a mistake,
and should especially repudiate the very invidious
Fiuggestion offered by a Power whose antecedents
do not warrant the unbounded confidence and
reliance which the acting on the supposition would
necessarily imply.

The Gazette thus announces the appointment of

"Aide•de-Camp General de Luders, charged

tho marine service at Nicolaiefr, is appointed Com-
mander-in-Chief of the army of the south, and of
t'ne land and sea forces in the Crimea, with all the

taining his rank of Aide-do Camp General. Ho
replaces Aide-de-Camp-General Prince Gortscha-
koff 11., who receives another appointment.
"General Soukhozanet 11. succeeds General
Luders at Nicolaieff, under the orders of General
Luders.

" Aide-de-Camp-General de Kotzebue 11., chief

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.

The success that has attended the production of
"Rob Roy" at this theatre has been so great tha
Mr. Anderson has determined to continue it for another
week. The Professor's delineation of the chief character
nightly draws down the most enthusiastic applause, and
the success that has resulted from the experiment of
producing the drama in true Scotch style will, no doubt,
induce Mr. Anderson to give the public a further treat
by the representation of another play of the same de•
scription. Indeed we have heard it whispered that the
"Lady of the Lake" has been fixed upon as the play
to succeed "Rob Roy," the Wizard, of course, sustaining
the part of Rhoderick Dhu. For the benefit of those
who have not been fortunate enough to obtain admis-
sion to witness "Rob Roy "we would advise them to
embrace the opportunity which will thus be afforded
next week.

STEREOSCOPIC GALLERY.—Yesterday we availed our-
selves of the polite invitation of the manager of the
London Stereoscopic Company to visit the gallery they
are about to open gratis to the public, at 54, Cheapside.
The premises have been very beautifully fitted up, and
upwards of 10,000 photographs are to be seen, any one
of which may be applied to stereoscopic purposes. The
subjects that pleased us most, and which, we think, will
attract the greatest amount of curiosity, were the Alpine
scenery and the views representing the whole of the in-
terior of the Paris Exhibition. To those who have not
been able to visit the French Exhibition a very accurate
idea of the entire edifice, with its extraordinary and
beautiful contents, may be obtained from the views to
be seen at the gallery. The views in Pompeii and Her-
culaneum are of extraordinary interest, comprehending
all the historical points of interest connected with the
disastrously renowned city. The exhibition will be
opened to the public in afew -days, and it swill= w 11 re!
pay a visit.
