METROPOLITAN SANITARY ASSOCIA-
TION.-DEPUTATION TO 7'llE PREMIER.

A deputation from the Metropolitan Sanit try Associa-
tion waited upon Lord John Russell, on Saturday, at his
official residence in Downing-street, for the purpose of
presenting to her Majesty's Government the resolutions
agreed to at the late meeting held in the Freemasons'
Hall, and of explaining the necessity of further measures
to improve the condition of the metropolis.
The Bishop of London headed the deputation, which
we; very numerous, consisting of—Lord Moreton, Dr.
Aldis, Rev. J. W. Buckley, M.A., St. Mary, Padding-
ton; Rev. R. Burgess, 8.D., rector of Chelsea; Mr.
Charles Salisbury Butler, Mr. Carlton Baynes, C.E., Sir
William Clay, M.P., Rev. J. Cumming, D.D., Mr. 11. C.
Edwards, Mr. Robert Fox, Mr. R. Grantham, F.G.S.,
Mr. W. Lewis, M. 8., Mr. C. F. J. Lord, Rev. T. Davis
Lamb, rector of West Hackney; Dr. G. Milroy, Rev.
Henry Mackenzie, M.A., reet tr of St. Martin-in-the-
ields ; Rev. C. Marshall, M.A., vicar of St. Bride's; Mr.
T. Marsh Nelson, Rev. J. R. Nicboll, M.A., rector of
Streatham; Sir E. Pearson, Mr. W. Rogers, Rev. F. T.
Statham, Sr. Peter's, Walworth; Rev. B. C. Sanger,
M.A., rector of St. Paul's, Shadwell; Mr. R. A Harris,
M.P., Dr. J. Sutherland, Mr. J. Stansbury, M.A., Rev.
T. P. Wright, M.A., St. Philip, Dalston; Rev. D. Wil-
son, M.A., vicar of Islington; Mr. J. Wyld, M.P., Rev.
J. Wood, 8.A., Rev. J. Worthington, D.D., Rev. R.
Dead, Hon. Frederick Byng, Mr. George Godwin, and
the honorary secretaries, Rev. M. W. Lusigaan, M.A.,
Dr. Hector Gavin, and Mr. Adolphus Barnet, M.D.
The Bishop of LONDON, at the close of a lengthened
address, in which he pressed the objects of the associa-
tion upon the attention of the Noble Lord, asked whether,
in consequence of the gracious expressions in her Ma-
jesty's Speech at the opening of Parliament, they might
hope that a Bill would be introduced, under the sanction
of her Majesty's Government, for the sanitary improve-
ment of the metropolis. And next, if no such intention
should be entertained by her Majesty's Government,
whether, if a Bill for the improvement of the sanitary
condition of the metropolis should ko introduced by some
Member of. either House of Parliament, such a measure
would be favourably considered by her Majesty's Gc-
vernment ; also, whether their assistance would be given
t) those who might wish to carry such a Bill into law.
The association, however, earnestly and anxiously hoped
that the first branch of this alternative might be calcu-
lated upon; and that her Majesty's Government would
see the importance—permit him to add the duty—of
bringing in some effective measure for improving the
sanitary condition of the metropolis.—(Hear.) The
Rigid Rev. Prelate then handed to the Noble Lord a
copy of the resolutions which had been unanimously
agreed to at the late meeting.
Mr. WYLD, M P. called the Noble Lord's attention to
the defective supply of water in the metropolis, ob-
serving that during the late epidemic disease prevailed
most in those quarters where the supplies were small
and the quality bad. Notwithstanding the efforts of the
different public companies, there were at this moment
80,000 houses in the metropolis unsupplied with water,
containing 640,000 persons. Of these 80,000 houses,
40,000 had no right to a supply. This was a question
hich did not concern the poorer classes only. It
affscted the middle and higher order, for in those neigh
bout hoods where the supplies were scanty disease corn-
monly prevailed. The sanitary effects of a plentiful
supply of water had been strikingly illustrated by a state-
ment made by Lord Ashley at the public meeting of the
association, that in the great city of Hamburgla the dis-
eases most commonly found among the poorer classes
had disappeared after their supplies of water became un-
limited. The ratepayers of the metropolis certainly suf-
fered severely from increased rates, in consequence of a
defisient supply, fit it not only engendered disease, but
maintained it among the poor, whom they had to sup-
port. The association did not themselves ventured to
propose any plan to remedy the present state f things;
but they begged most earnestly to call the attention of
the Government to the necessity of a constant supply of
water in every apartrreat of the habitations of the poor,
upon the high pressure princi; le, at the lowest possible
cost.

The Rev. H. Mackenz:e, the Rev. R. Burge3s, the
Rev. Dr. Cumming, Mr. T. M. Ne!sor•, and Mr. H. Ed-
wards, having severally supported the Right Rev. Pre I Ate,
in observations of considerable length,
Lord J. RUSSELL said, I have listened with great at-
tention to what your Lordship has said upon this sub-
ject; and I am sure your Lordship, and the deputation,
will see that it is impossible for me to enter here into the
particular views of the Government, or into a discussion
upon any general measure. I can only state to you that
I consider the object no less important than it has been
described to be by the members of the deputation who
have just spoken. It has constantly engaged the
attention of the Government; and my Noble Friend
Lord Carlisle has been in constant communication with
me upon it. I know that, with regard to the metropolis,
he ha: felt the difficulties of the subject very greatly, and
certainly his opinion is that he does not think there can
be any general measure which can comprehend all
the subjects which comprise sanitary regulation; but he
thinks it is more feasible to attempt by separate mea-
suros to meet the various evils that have occurle

Hoar, bear.) With regard to a general measure, I

ihoulci also say we mast consider that in this country
there is very naturally and properly great jealousy of
any interference either with local rights or individual
will and freedom from control; and that when you bring
in a Bill c.f 350 clauses, you find very groat difficulty in
contending for each of those clauses against the separate
opposition that may be made to them. But I will only
say this, with regard to the difficulties of the subject,
that we will give our bast attention to them; and I can
assure your Lordship and the deputation that her Ma-
jesty is deeply interested in this subject.—(Hear, hear.)
The Noble Lord addei, in answer to an observation from
a member of the deputation, that the opinion of the Go-
vernment was in favour of separate measures rather than
of one general measure.
The deputation then retired.

TILE HUSH FISHERIES BILL.
FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
The Irish Fisheries Bill is a document fraught
with most thrilling interest to those who look forward
fur improvements on the fisheries, not only as re-
spects Ireland, but of England and Scotland as well.
1 have just risen up from waling through its pages,
84 in number, and 182 enactments. The grand fea
tures of the Bill are, the erection of a fully autho-
rised board of commissioners, who will appoint in-
spectors, secretary, assistant-secretary, clerks, mes-
sengers, and other officers, to see that the fisheries are
carried on under wholesome laws and regulations.
The most of former Acts fur regulating the Irish
fisheries are to be repealed, to make way for the one
now to be introduced. The sea coast of Ireland, with
its estuaries, its rivers, its locks, ponds, and lakes, is
to be divided and subdivided into districts to aid the
purposes of the Act. Each district is to elect conser-
vators of fisheries, who are to be their representatives.
The number of conservators for each district is not to
be less than three, nor more than nine. The owners
of fisheries of a certain value are to be vested with the
privileges of a conservator, but only one person from
each estate will be permitted to act in that ca-
pacity." The engines, net?, &c., for salmon and trout
fishing, &c , to be licensed and pay an annual duty."
It is only such who pay this licence that will possess
the privilege to vote for a conservator. To protect
the brood of fish, see that they are not captured when
out of season, and that the nets and other traps for
catching them are according to prescribed dimensions,
will be sonic of the chief duties of the Irish Board of
Fisheries. All officers connected with the board to
be paid out of the Consolidated Fund. For the pur-
pose of carrying this Act fully and beneficially into
effect at sea, as well as on land, there are to be a
class of officers entitled water-bailiffs ; and the
officers and men of the Royal Navy, Coast Guard
service, and the constabulary force of Ireland, are all
to be vested with power, privileges, and authority to
aid the Commissioners in raising the Irish fisheries,
and ultimately the Irish poor, from an impoverished
to that of an affluent state.

With such a Board of Fisheries erected in Ireland,
whose aim sill be to protect the weak and see justice
administered to all, parties, then, who are desirous
that national improvements should go on will have no
hesitation to advance their capital in any well-
digested scheme for the purchasing efficient vessels,
tackling, &c. They will have a ready tribunal to
apply to should redress be needed, subject alike, of
course, to abide by the laws and regulations issued
from under the seal of the board.

THE TAILORS' SWEATING SYSTE3I.—A deputation
from a society of tailors, comprising 5,000 persons, waited
on Saturday upon Lord Dudley Stuart, M.P., and Sir
Benjamin Hall, M.P., at the Marylebone Court, for the
purpose of inducing the Hon. Members to present and
support a petition t) the House of Commons, praying
the interference of the Legislature to, put
_down thoot.
system known as the sweating system. 'The dePu"t
pointed out the hardships to which the journeymen
tailors were subjected by the method now so commonly
adopted of giving out work to certain

EXPLOSION or FIRE-DAMP.—On Saturday morn-
ing last, about seven o'clock, an explosion of fire-damp
took place at the Gib Field Colliery, Chowkent, the pro-
perty of G. Fletcher, Esq , c f Laburnum-house. The
dangerous gas has for some time past been observed in
the more secluded parts of the mine, and the utmost
caution has been enjoined upon the workmen. One of
the men had been instructed to examine the different
working: before the others commenced, and on Saturday
morning last ho was engaged in this duty, when finding
some of the inflammable gas lodged in one or two of the
bays of the pit, he pulled off his coat and began to beat
it out into the air-draughts. Four other men had also
entered the mine; and one of them, unaware of the
danger, lighted a candle and affixed it to the side of the
wall f ono of the bays. The disturbed gas driven along
the %orkings by Seddon came in contact with the lighted
oandle, and a terrific explosion took pla-ie, killing one
man on the spot, and injuring the other four in the most
shocking manner. They were got out of the mine as
speedily as possible, and Mr. Brideoak, surgeon, cf
Leigb, and Mr. Croston, of Chowbent, were speedily in
attendance upon the sufferers. Notwithstanding every
attention, they died the following day (Sunday).—Mon-
ehes'er Examiner.

Thu Hoe DUTY .The Sussex( Express says :
"As the period fixed for the payment of the second in-
stalmelt of MS duty is rapidly approaching, the ques-
don of what is to be done in future relative to the duty
in general naturally fixes the attention of the grower to
the consideration of the best method to obtain relief
from the obnoxious impost. On this point, as unfirtu-
rat.ly on many others in which agricultural interests
are coacerned, ther3 is a great diffe.-ence of opinion,
and it is much to be regretted that some medium mea-
sure °intuit be suggeated Chet would reconcile the coil-
fl:cting interests a East and Mid Kent and Sussex. We
had hoped that the important mect!ng held at Staple-
hurat last year would in aiv e degree have accom-
plished this desideratum; but it appears that there is
,t;11 a want of unanimity, as to the re'ief required, be-
t xeeri Mid. and East Kent. The nearest approach, we
believe, to a general good understanding on the subject
is expressed in the petition recently agreed to at Marden:
Thlt your petitioners have for many years suffered
severely from the excestdve duty on hops, and earnestly
entrtat your Honourable House to repeal thEt part of
the duty called the war duty, and the five per seat. ad-
ditional, thereby reducing the duty to Id. per pound.'"
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE AND WONDEZFUL ESCAPE.

—On Thursday morning, the 7th inst., the wife of Mr.
B.C. Planner, of the Horse Shoe Inn, Newmarket, at-
tempted self-destruction by jumping dowa a well, wkile
labouring under mental derangement. The unfortunate
woman, who is in an advanced state of pregnancy, left
her tot about Lair o'clock (her husband being uncon-
scious of her absence), went to the well, and junii ed
down it. Her escape was certainly miraculous, having
sustained no other perceptible injury than a .light abt a-
sion on her fees. The well is near sixty feet deep, w ith,
flrtunately, at the time in question, not more than five
feet of water in it. After having fallen to the bottom
she managed t) get above the water by placing ber back
against one side of the well, and her feet on the other,
and remained in this posture till the was drawn up. Mr.
Balls, carrier, who resides near the well, heard her crying
out, and supposirg some one had either fallen in a
fit, or a state of intoxication, pattly dressed himteif,
and went out, when he was surprised to find tut the
noise proceeded from the bottom of the well. He asked

who was these, and was answered by Mu. Planner,
from the bottom of the well. He immediately roused
her husband and those of the surrounding cottages, who,
with great promptitude and alalritv, procured ropes,
for the re cue, when Mr. S. Store kiaily deecenCel the
well, and extricated the poor woman from her perilous
situation. Fears were at one time enteitsined that, as
Mrs. P. is enceinte, and bad been in the well f,r up-
wards of an hour and a half, with nothing on but her
night dress, the result would be serious. We are in-
formed that she has been in an infirm state of mind for
months past, but is now rapidly progressing to a state
of convalescence. We have just heard t

DESTRUCTION or TUB LOBSTER TAVERN AT

shot t time spread with a rapidity which wrapped the pile
at all points in a sheet of flame of intense power, but
short duration. Like most of the snug old taverns of
former times, the Lobster was composed principally of
wood, and hence its rapid reduction to ashes by the action
of the fire. The flames ex.ended to, and communicated
with some cattle sheds, which were rapidly reduced to
ruins. An extensive co,l-shed, also comp( sed of wood,
caught fire, but was saved from destruction by the timely
arrival of tie town aed Custom-house engines. The
military from the fort were also quickly on the spot.
The tavern, which was the property e f Mr. Plane,
