Coeaacitor McNeill, addressing His Worship,

and referring to the meeting and proceedings of the City Board of Health, on Thursday, 3l-t De

cember, wished to know whether the enquiries instituted by His Worship, as Chairman of the Board, respecting the state of the water su} pled by one ofthe public pumps, were to teruiinate with

the Heaith Officer's Re pe ri thereof, and the action subsequently taken thereon by the Board lie thought that, if their procecdings, with regard to & question of euch viral importance as the purity ot impurity of tbe water of the public wells of the City were to be allowed to end with that action, it could not bet be held to be very lame and in- sufficient. If the water in one pump was found to be eo impure and poisonous that, with a view to the preservation of public healch, it had been leemed necets aTy to prevent its be ing any { neers avaiiabie for family ese,—and that, as respected the pump referred to, such prompt @nd decisive

action was pot impératively called tor, no one, he;

beiieved, would avsert,—4t wes most reasonable to suppose that the water of neerly every other pump tn the City was equally impure aud p ison- ous; and he was, therefore, of opiuton that the Council, as the City Beard of Health, would be very remiss in the discharge of their duty, if they did not cause the sanitary proceediags which bad been already taken by them to be immediately f llowed up by the appointment of a ¢ ommission, te be composed of the Health Officer, Doctor Jenkins, and one or two other medical gentlemen, to analyse the water of every public well in the City; and it was bis intention tu submit a Resvlu- te that eles
