Jli,, P. MOORE said, that when the House came to under-
stand the stature of this Bill ho thought they would not agree
to it. Vast sums of money had already been expended for the
purpose of procuring a sami)? of water, and the object of the
present Bill eni.s to enable -a' Raect Vestry to assess the Parish
for the p,iirpcise t f pising PM firther sums. He moved, as an
Antencinient, thatthe ROI be read a second time this day six
wittlii.
TsfOr.:A.TAYLOR said he was far from saying that this Bill
did not need ainciiibrient. There was another Bill relating to
this sulajees nape before the House.' But he implored the house
w.alllcw' ibis *togo to a Committee,two constant that it
ould come out' of the Committee in its present shape. The
objrie,t of the Bill was to give the inhabitants of the pariah the
tol•tver'j3f supplying theiliselves with water from other Compa-
nies; t.:;tier certain restrictions. His whole object was to be-
nefit the public; 'and he thought be might venture to•say, that
though he 4kt not expect to procure for the public a supply of
water it a rate much blow that now levied, yet that eate should
never be increased.
sir..llll am remarked that the public bad of late been quite
at the mercy of the Water Companies. He did not approve of
the Bill, as far as it went to authorise vestries to levy money for
establishing a stipply.of water to the parish—but be approved of
the Main principle of the nu, and hoped the House would allow
it to go into a Committee.
A.I(. WROTIESLEY hoped the House would not .hastily
reject this Bill.
air. HARVEY objected to the power which the Bill would
give to the Vestries.
Mr. 11. SU MN ER said, that he should generally much dis-
approve of enabling parishes to establish Water Cotnpanisis
• among themselves. But if this power could be safely given to
any parish, it would be to the parses of Mary-la-bonne. One of
the most abominable conspiracies and breaches of faith that ever
had been committed was that of which the Water Companies
- lia beengulk towards the public. But st" there was another
Bill before Al house on the same subject, he thought it would
be better to one the second reading of this Bill till the other
bad been committed. He hoped the Amendment would be
withdrawn.
11r. P. MOORE then withdrew his Amendment.
Mr. IL SUMNER then moved as an Amendment, that the
Bill he read a second time this day fortnight.
3lr. BYNG seconded this Amendment.
After a few words from Mr. M. A. TAYLOR this Amend-
ment was agreed to.
