THE GAS SUPPLY.

Dr. LETHEBY stated that the illuminating power
of the gas supplied to the City during the past week
had been in the case of each of the companies above
the requirements of the act of Parliament, but the
amount of sulphur in the gas had been at all times
excessive, the City Company's gas having contained
an average of 23.12 grains per 100 cubic feet, the
Chartered 26.09 grains, and the Great Central
23.49 grains.
The Court subsequently adjourned.

EXTRAORDINARY DISCOVERY.—The workmen em-
ployed at Berkeswell Itsctory in taking up the hearthstone
in the servants' hall prior to the required alterations have
found a human skeleton underneath the stone. It appeared
to be of full size, and lay with the face side devrnwards, the
arms brought up on the back. A sandstone was placed on
the head, and another sandstone on the feet. The bones
were not more than four feet from the fire-grate. Near the
above lay the remains of another slall bone under the same
stone. The bones were very much decayed, from the length
of time they had lain there, so much so that on removing
them they fell to pieces and most of them crumbled to dust.
The coroner (Mr. W. S. Poole) lies directed the remains to
be sent to the Demonstrator of Anatomy at Queen's Col-
lege, Birmingham, who will report to him thereon, and he
then intends holding an inquest.—Leamington Chronicle.

Commissioners of Sewers.

The Commissioners of Sewers of the City of
London met at the Guildhall on Tuesday, for the
despatch of public business. Mr. Deputy De Jersey
presided upon the occasion.

A considerable portion of time was occupied in
hearing summonses which had been taken out by
the officers of the Court against Mr. Baker, one of
the contractors, for various neglects in the removal
of dust from premises within his district. The con-
tractor was fined in the aggregate a sum of for
the neglects.
The City Remembrancer (Mr. Wm. Corrie) at-
tended before the Commissioners and laid before
them petitions which he had prepared, in accordance
with their instructions, for presentation to Parlia-
ment, in opposition to the Metropolitaa Railway
(Additional Powers) Bill, and the London, Chat-
ham, and Dover Railway Bill.
The petitions were at once signed, and they were
ordered to be presented to Parliament in due form.
Mr. JOSEPH DAW, the principal clerk, read a re-
port from the Improvement Committee in reference
to the Metropolitan District Railway Bill, upon
which subject a memorial was presented at the last
Court from the inhabitants of the ward of Tower,
complaining that the powers sought for in the bill
were unjust, and would, if sanctioned, operate op-
pressively upon a considerable number of occupiers
of property in Tower-street and the locality. The
committee stated that they had carefully considered
the provisions of the bill, and they recommended
the Court to present a petition to Parliament in op-
position to it, and they stated further that they had
requested the Remembrancer to assist the inhabi-
tants of the locality in their opposition to the bill as
far as he was able to do so.
SANATORY CONDITION OF THE CITY.

Dr. LETIIEBY, the medical officer of health, laid
before the Court the returns of the several inspec-
tors, which related to 230 houses visited during the
week, and he submitted "a list of 24 places for sana-
tory improvements in various particulars. The
markets and slaughter-houses within the City, he
said, had been duly inspected, and the officers had
condemned 3,1561b5. of meat as unfit for human
food—it consisted of 5 sheep, 2 pigs, 4 calves, 26
quarters of beef, and 6 joints of meat—all of it
in a diseased condition, and had been destroyed.
Last week there had been 68 births and 42
deaths registered in the City. The mortality
returns were below the average (57) for
the corresponding period of the last 10 years ;
19 of the deaths were among children of less
than five years of age, and 8 only among persons of
60 and upwards.

PRISONS' ACT.

The Earl of CARNARVON moved for copies of instruc-
tions issued by the Home Secretary ill relation to the Pri-
sons' Act.

The returns were ordered.
THE CATTLE PLAGUE.

The Duke of MARLBOROUGH moved for copies of all
orders made by couris of quarter sessions relative to the
cattle plague since the Order in Council of 16th December,
1865 ; and for a copy of a letter from the Secretary of
State tt? the chairmen of quarter sessions relative to the
said order.

Earl GRANVILLE said the documents referred to would
be laid on the table.

• The Duke of MARLBOROUGH said that it would be
more convenient if there were an analysis of the docu-
ments presented to their lordships than their being given in
extenso. It was very desirable that immediate action
should be taken on this most important matter.
The Duke of BUCCLEUCH said he hoped that the or-
ders in Council would extend to Scotland.
The house then adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS—LAST EVENING.
The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock.
METROPOLITAN AND ST. JOHNS'-WOOD
RAILWAY.

On the motion for the second reading of this bill,
Mr. DOULTON moved the immediate rejection of this
bill, because it sought to invade one of the most beauti-
ful places near the metropolis, viz., Hampstead-heath.

(Hear, hear.) This bill sought for powers to take
29 acres of the heath, which would be but the first step
towards the total desti action of this one of the largest
open spaces left to pent-up artizans of the metropolis. It
was quite title that those 29 acres were not entirely re-
quired for the purposes of the railway, but if powers were
given to take this land by the company it would for ever
be removed from the power of the house. (Hear, hear.)
He thought this extremely undesirable, especially at a
time when the First Commissioner of Works had given
notice of his intention to bring in a bill to deal with the
open spaces in and around the metropolis. He therefore
moved the bill be read a second time this day six months.

Mr. F. POWELL supported the amendment. Tooting
Common had been entirely destroyed, a 'ld now it was
sought to destroy Hampstead-heath.

Mr. WATKINS thought the ordinary course ought
not to be depalL,ed from in this case, but referred to the
committee vp stairs.

Mr. T. HUGHES strongly deprecated the house grant-

ing powers to new metropolitan ra;l way companies to pull
down and cut up any desc4tion of property they pleased.
(Hear, hear.) The system ;f persisted in would soon as-
sume a state of social tyranny that would be pm-lastly un-
endurable. The railway came in, pulled down the
houses without the least compensation, and the poor people
were tmaed out without compensation, and in the place of
the usual inhabitants of the district the railway contractor
brought in a large body of nay vies, for whom no shelter
was provided, and thus they were left to shift as best they
could. Ho hoped the house would reject the bill.
The SPEAKER put the question, when the bill was re-
jected without a dh ision, the " ayes" being ye, y few and
feeble, "whilst the "noes" were particularly emphatic
and numerous.

JUVENILE OFFENDERS.—JaMeS Farlow, Richard Brown,
and Frederick Lavender were brought up on remand before
➢ir. Paget charged with stealing a large quantity of iron,
the property of the North London Railway Company, from
their line at Bromley.
A boy named Thomas. Winters, the son of honest and
respectable parents, dwelling in Weston-street, Bow-com-
mon, saw the prisoners remove a large coupling chain and
other pieces of iron from a truck on the North London
Railway, and conceal them in the Prince of Wales run-
ning ground, which they reached through a hole they
had made in the fence. Young Winters gave in-
formation to a John Grantham, a watchman on the
line who recovered the whole of the stolen iron, which
was lying in a heap in the rear of the Prince of Wales
Tavern. The value of it was is. There had been other
property stolen off the line, and the prisoners were sus-
pected of being concerned in the robberies. When
Grantham was in search'of them they ran away directly
they saw him. /

On being taken into custody by a police-constable, and
before a word was said to him by the police-constables,
they said, "We know what you want us for, it's for the
iron, we did not take it all, we are innocent."
Mr. Paget committed the prisoners for trial.

CATTLE PLAGUE.

In reply to an Hox. MEMBER,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he did
not think it would be likely that the house could go on
with the discussion on the cattle plague to-morrow, as
his hon. friend, the Secretary of State for the Home De-
partment, would have to make a motion for the house
sitting to-morrow for important business with respect to
Ireland.
Mr. BRIGIIT asked if the experiments for the purpose
of discovering a cure for the cattle plague were to b 3 con-
tinued notwithstanding the passing of the bill.
Sir G. GREY said the experiments were made by the
Commissioners and not by the Government. He did not
think any very great result had proceeded from the ez-

by a vote of more than two-thirds in both 11.0a7,

SCULLERS' RACE FOR £lOO.

Some hundreds of persons assembled at Putney yesterday
to witness the sculling race between Daniel Russell, of
Rotherhithe, and Bartholomew Murphy, of Shadwell, who
had engaged to rowfrom Putney to Mortlake for .£5O a side.
The same two men closed the year with one of the finest
races ever seen—Russell not passing his man until they
got to Wilcox's, at Barnes, and Murphy's party not think-
ing their man had trained sufficiently, gave him another
trial, and well were those rewarded who went to see it, for
a more manly and plucky race was never seen. Murphy
trained at Mr. Wilcox's, the White Hart, Barnes ; Russell
at Harry Kelley's, the Bells, Putney—and both were very
fit. The race was accompanied by two steamers full of pas-
sengers. Mr. Wilcox was umpire for Murphy, Mr. Evans
for Russell, and Geo. Hammerton officiated as referee.
Murphy won the toss, and chose the Middlesex side, a
strong wind blowing, which added to the land water, and
made the labour very severe. At the moment of starting
Murphy obtained a slight lead, but Russell soon drew level,
and a truly magnificent race followed to the Crabtree, in
the course of which they had changed positions about half
a dozen times. Here Murphy seemed to row stronger and
with more judgment, and nearly drew clear; but at the
soapworks another desperate Etmggle took place, Russell
getting the best of it, and leading by nearly half a length
under Hammersmith bridge. The water was now more
rough than Wore, and Murphy, cqtchicfs two crabs, gays

LONDON, _FRIDAY, FEB. 16, 1866.

The Cattle Disease Bill again engaged the atten-
tion of the House last night, and a great deal of
discussion took place. In consequence of the great
confusion made by some opponents to the Govern-
ment measure, Mr. GLADSTONE proposed to alter
the clause so as to give compensation up to one-half
of the value of the animal. This proposition was
finally accepted, although many hon. members
pointed out the inconvenience of the change. Mr.
DISRAELI winly advised his friends to accept the
amendment, while, at the same time, he declared
that the inconsistency of the Government placed
them all in a very awkward position. The right
hon. gentleman said that he spoke as regarded
the interests of the country generally, and did
not confine his remarks exclusively to the benefit
of his own constituents, who are perhaps the greatest
sufferers by this calamity. Nowhere is the cattle
plague more severely felt than in Buckinghamshire,

because there is so much grazing land there. " They
have thousands of acres, which not merely in the
memory of man, but for countless generations, have
never been mowed, of the richest and finest laud in
England." As Mr. DISRAELI stated, her MAJESTY'S
Ministers must have arrived at their original deci-
sion after much thought and scrupulous investiga-
tion, and. it was not the thing to change
our legislation in a harem scarum manner.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer was no doubt
mortified himself at having to depart from the
Original idea of the framers of the bill, but of course
he had to consider the question as to whether it
would ms - I
r n its first state without much delay.
Some
people are never satisfied, among them we
may rank the hon. member for Birmingham as first
and foremost. 11.-otwithatanding the sop thrown to
CERBERLTS, in the shape of chancre in the rate of
ons
compensation, Mr.
again made a desperate
onslaught upon the bill, and proposed an amendment
to the effect that the slaughter of the cattle herded
with diseased animals should not take place without
the consent of their owners.
The hon, member did
not, however, succeed in impressing his :
many others, for he was defeated by amajoeriwtsyoonf
ass, having only 50 on his side. Mr
• DislikEu
showed the inconsistency of the course pursued
0. • 4i if it required
by asking, act of
Parliament to produce the effect sought
for by the hon. member for Birmingham, he should
fancy that any animal might be slaughtered with the
consent of its owner." It is in some degree a satis-
faction that Mr. BRIGHT should have proposed this
amendment, because it enabled the House to show,
in a very decided manner, bow little they cared for
his objections ; and indeed it was essential that a
protest should have been made to the course pur-
sued by the hon. member for Birmingham in this
matter. He has gone out of his way to mix up the
engrossing topic of the cattle plague with all sorts of
extraneous subjects, and contrived to introduce party
questions and clans interests of a vexatious character.
Such conduct cannot be too much condemned, and
