EAST LONDON WATER SUPPLY.

A deputation was received from the joint com-
mittee of the following vestries and district boards,
viz.:—Hackney, Shoreditch, Bethnal-green, Mile-
end Old Town, Poplar, Limehouse, and St. George's-
in-the-East, to present a memorial on the subject
of the supply of water to the East of London.

Mr. NEWTON introduced the deputation.
The memorial stated that the supply from the
East London Waterworks was both insufficient in
quantity and bad in quality ; that they were about to
petition Parliament for power to compel the com-
pany to supply them with water of a better quality
and a greater quantity, those districts having suf-
fered so severely from the late visitation of the
cholera, and praying the Board to support them in
their application to Parliament.
Mr. NEWTON moved that the memorial be referred
to the Works and General Purposes Committee.
Mr. HULL seconded the motion, which after some
discussion was agreed to.
After transacting the usual routine business the
Board adjourned.

LAMBERT'S ASTHMATIC BALS-kll.-AN
EFFECTUAL REMEDY, without confining the bowels
or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant, is ad-
mitted to be the best medicine for immediately relieving
coughs, colds, .:onfirined cases of asthma, and incipient con-
sumption. it frequently cures persons whom the faculty
pronounce incurable, admirably allays the tickling; which
provokes frequent coughing. In approaching consumption
its effects are truly beneficial. Persons deprived of sleep, or
even lying down for tear of suffocation, may depend on relief
in a few minutes atter taking it. Prepares on,y and sold by
W. LAM BERT, Chemist. 8, King-W,lliam-street, Charing-

The Pockets of the Ratepayers.

A correspondent writes to us :
A letter to the Poor-Law Bard from their chief
medical officer, which appears in the Medical Times,
gives the latest development of the great work-
house question. It appears that there never was
any divergence of opinion between Dr. Edward
Smith and Mr. Farnall, and when the former was
directed to report or suggest such alterations to
Parliament as might appear desirable (so long ago
as last August), there was then no plan of six large
infirmaries, with 1,000 beds each before the public.
It is hoped the pockets of the ratepayers will be
considered, and no unusual taxation incurred. Dr.
Edward Saiith, it appears, long ago recommended
good ventilation, with 900 to 1,080 cubic feet of
air for workhouse patients, not 500, as erroneously
stated.

This correspondence makes it clear that it is en-
tirely erroneous to compare workhouses with mili-
tary hospitals, as has been done, as at least three
times as much air is required in such hospitals as in
workhouses ; and a conclusive fact has been elimi-
nated by Miss Nightingale, viz., that excessive mor-
tality in general medical cases occurs rather in large
hospitals with excessive cubic space than in private
dwellings, or wards of workhouses, warm and clean,
assimilated to the habits of the infirm poor.
Dr. Smith, in the concluding part of the commu-
nication, appeals to an experience of 30 years of the
present system, and avers that no fever nor any
other evidence of disease arising from deficient air
(overcrowding) can be shown to exist.

DISCHARGING A PISTOL IN THE STREETS.—PAYING FOR
A LARK. - John Seagreson, a respectble-looking man, was
charged before Mr. Knox with discharging a pistol in Park-
street, to the common danger of passengers.
Henry Witt, 67 0, heard the report of a pistol, and on
going up saw the defendant with a pistol in his hand He
admitted discharging it, stating that he "only did it for a
lark." He then took the defendant into custody.
The defendant said that it was a new pistol, and that ho
was only trying it.

Mr. Knox told the defendant that he could not be per-
mitted to discharge firearms in the streets, and fined him
40s. or a month.

GEN. GRANT AND THE PRESIDENCY.

A gentleman of this city, an intimate personal
friend of General Grant's, called on him in Wash-
ington not long since. His purpose was to get the
influence of Gen. Grant with the President in rela-
tion to an office in the city. Gen. Grant told him
frankly that his name would be of no service to him,
but an injury. lie said he had solicited very few
favours of the President, and to them no favour-
able response was returned. He said that one day
Mr. Johnson spoke with him in relation to it. He
said to General Grant :—" You say that you are
not a candidate for the presidency. Now promise
me," said the President, " that you will not let
your name be used in connection with that office,
and I will grant you any favour in my power to
bestow." To this Gen. Grant replied—" Mr. John-
son, lam not a candidate. But suppose the peo-
ple insist upon making me one, what can I do ?
And, besides, Mrs. Grant has been recently looking
at the White House, and thinks she can run that
establishment quite as well as it is run now. And
n
you know, Mr. President, that these women will do
pretty much as they please. And Mrs. Grant would
decidedly object to my giving

The President looked as if he

hooting and bowling that he could not be heard.
The General waxed wroth, took off his hat and
coat, and persisted for half an hour in the attempt
to speak, but succeeded only in expressing his just
indignation in a few Butlerian sentences. Some
of the words, caught by the reporters, but chiefly
lost upon the crowd, are thus reported :—General
Butler said it had been this spirit of misrule
which brought on the terrible war. There
were doubtless within the sound of his voice
men who fled from the South for protection dur-
ing tbe war, and are now endeavouring to bring on
anarchy. The honourable men of New York would
not wish to interfere with the rights of the minority.
Wherever the Republican party exists, even in
Georgia, free speech is tolerated, except in the city
of New York. If this is the Democracy of New

The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and
the short exchange on London is 25.121, per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
100. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
about 2-10ths per cent. dearer in Paris that in Londor.
The course of exchange at New York on London tor bills at
60 days' eight is 109 to 1091 per cent. At theso rates there
is a profit on the importation ut gold fr,,m the thii ie 1

former values. Tallow has been in fair demand for

CHAPEL ROYAL, SAVOY.—Her Majesty's Chapel
Royal in the Savoy is undergoing a thorough restoration
under the Earl of Devon, the new Chancellor of the Duchy
of Lancaster. When it was reopened after the fire it was
found that the walls were bare, the ceiling defective, that
common deal seats had been put down, and that the. whole
arrangements were of the most meagre character. .It
is expected that the chapel will be reopened before
Christmas.

National Artillery Associatioia.

The annual prize meeting of the National Artil-
lery Association commenced yesterday at Shoebury-
ness. Over 800 men are located there. The growing
interest felt in the progress of the association may
be seen from the fact that there are detachments
present from Aberdeen, the Cinque Ports, Durham,
Essex, Hants, Kent, Kincardineshire, Lancashire,
Lincoln, Middlesex, Northumberland, Sheffield,
Shropshire, Surrey, Sussex, and the Tower Hamlets.
The detachments generally consist of ten men each,
but several counties have increased that number.
The Cinque Ports send eleven detachments, Shef-
field three, and many others a similar number.
The bell tents are ranged in long lines according
to military regulations, with five non-commis-
sioned officers and gunners to each tent. In the
case of officers a tent is occupied by two persons
only. The camp is under the command of Colonel
Fisher, R.A., directly appointed by the War-
office, and the Council have appointed Lieutenant
Colwell, of the Cinque Ports Artillery, to be bri-
gade-major; Captain M'Kown, camp adjutant;
Dr. A. B. De Lisle Allen, Ist Middlesex Artillery,
surgeon ; the Rev. Dr. Cross, chaplain ; and Cap-
tain Beveridge, 12th Kent Artillery, and Lieutenant
Starkey, 4th Cinque Ports Artillery, commissariat
officers. The prizes are named after the Houses of
Lords and Commons, the Duke of Cambridge's,
the Prince of Wales's, the Duke of Wellington's,
the Marquis of Hartington's, and Her Majesty's.
Other prizes will be given in the form of badges
by the association. The prizes will be distributed
by the Under Secretary of State for War. The
National Rifle Association have intimated their in-
tention of giving a prize of £5O. The targets were
moored out at sea, at 1,250 and 1,500 yards range,
each competing detachment to fire five rounds.
Nothing could be more unfavourable than the
tempestuous weather throughout the day, for the
rain poured down in such torrents that the tar-
gets
at sea could with difficulty be seen. The
business of the day was confined to shooting for the
Lords and Commons' prize at 1,250 and 1,500
yards. There were about 500 competitors, but in
consequence of the late hour to which the firing
was prolonged the results must be deferred. One
of the Brighton detachments made 28, the highest
on the list when the report was despatched.

THE BUSINESS OF THE SESSION.

On the motion of Mr. C. FORSTER, returns were ordered
of the number of private bills introduced and brought from
the House of Lords, and of Acts passed in the session of
186 G ; of the number of select committees appointed ; of
the number of divisions of the house ; and of the number
of days on which the house sat during the session.

EXPORTS, &c.
On the motion of Mr. HENLEY returns were ordered
of the official value and declared value of the exports from
the United Kingdom in each year from 1826 to 1865, both
inclusive ; the aggregate amount of each five years ; and
the percentage of increase or decrease in each period of five
years ; and of the gross amount of revenue received from
taxes in the United Kingdom in each of the years afore-
said; the average amount of each five years; the estimated
population of the United Kingdom at each period of five
years; and the amount of taxation per head on the popu-
lation of the United Kingdom at each of such periods.
THE CATTLE PLAGUE.

In reply to Mr. DODSONT

• Mr. CORRY said the report of the select committee on
Trade in Animals was considered at a council held yester-
day, and, with every desire to relax the restrictions upon
the traffic in cattle at the earliest possible moment con-
sistent with safety, the GoTernment did not think it ad-
visable yet to issue any new Order either as regarded the
metropolis or elsewhere. The disease_-had decreased so
much, however, that lo hoped a relaxation of the restric-
tions would be practicable in a short time.
THE COURT. OF PROBATE.

In reply to Mr. W. LESLIE, -
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that designs had
been asked from a number of architects, with the view of
making provision in the New Palace of Justice for the safe
custody of wills, and for the due transaction of the busi-
ness of the Court of Probate.
. In reply to Mr. WALDEGRAVE LESLIE, who asked what
arrangements would be made for the safe custody of wills,
and for the due transaction of the Court of Probate between
the present time and the building of the New Palace of
Justice, seeing that the Metropolitan Board of Works would
very shortly take possession of the buildings of Doctors'-
commons for the purpose of carrying on the new street from
Blackfriars-bridge to the Mansion House,
Lord JOHN MANNERS said negotiations were pending
for the transference from the Board of Works of a piece of
ground to the west of the present site, upon which bull-
ings would be erected fully sufficient for the custody of
wills and the carrying on of the business of the Court of
Probate. He did not think, however, that it would be
necessary to remove the wills until the new Palace of Jus-
tice was ready.
THE LONDON, CHATHAM, AND DOVER
RAILWAY.

Major DICKSON said that in the absence of the Presi-
dent of the Board of Trade he would postpone until to-
morrow asking if his attention had been called to the
reports of the embarrassment of the London, Chatham,
and Dover Railway Company, and if he had taken any
measures to secure the public against the inconvenience of
any interruption in the working of those lines.

CURRENCY AND BANKING.

Mr. WATKIN rose io---movetl; an humble address be
presented to her Majesty, praying that she will be gra-
ciously pleased to issue a royal commission directed to the
investigation of the causes which have led to the late se-
vere and protracted pressure in the money market, and to
the continuance, for a long period,
of a minimum rate of
discount of 10 per cent. at the Bank of England ; and also
to investigate the laws at present affecting currency and
nto:the commissioners to pro-
any) alterations have become expedient therein ; and fur-
, and to report what (if
tbhe ean United
instruction
sent theti report and the evidence taken by them on or
before the Ist February, 1867. In doing so he remarked
that the Chancellor of the Exchequer the other day in-
formed his hearers that all that was required to restore the
money market to its former condition was time, peace, and
a good harvest. Peace had now been brought about, and
bankingt
he r, tha ni
t
there was every prospect of a good harvest ; yet, notwith-
standing these circumstances, the minimum rate of discount
was still 10 per cent., while in Paris it was al per cent.,
in Brussels 6 per cent., in Amsterdam 7 per cent., and in
Vienna 5 per cent. Whether the cause might be found in
defective legislation, or in rash speculations of individuals
under legislation in itself good and satisfactory, ho con-
tended that in either case those who made the laws ought
not only to make them but to watch over their working, to
fathom the difficulties, in order to see what further legisla-
tion was necessary, and, if possible, next year to carry it
into effect. Replying to the question why he had not
moved for a committee instead of for a commission, he re-
marked that they bad arrived at such a late period of the
session that a committee would simply mean the shelving
of the subject till next year. Tho committee would then
occupy the whole of next session, and instead of legislation
in 1867 the whole thing would be shelved till 1868, when
a period of prosperity may have sot in, and be delayed and
forgotten till 1876 or 1877. Consequently they ought to
inquire now, and, as they could not inquire by a com-
mittee, they ought to do so by a commission. Since he
gave notice of his motion he had received letters from
many persons in England and the Continent, and he must
say the whole tone of them was in favour of inquiry. The
language of the public press was also in favour of inquiry
in proof of which he quoted from the Economist, which re-
presented the monetary classes, and other newspapers. He
deprecated the pressure which had been put upon Mr.
Gladstone from half-past two till twelve o'clock at night
on the day when the panic was at its height to suspend
