NEWPORT, SATURDAY, SEPT. 26, 1857. OUR readers will be glad to find that subscrip- tion lists on behalf of our unfortunate country- men in the East are now opened in this town. A public meeting was held on Thursday evening for the purpose of organising this movement, and the proceedings, which are reported in our columns this day, may be considered highly satisfactory. The speeches were as brief as the greatest lover of brevity could desire, but then they were to the point, and the speakers were thoroughly in earnest. The subject was not enveloped in a multitude of words, and this is sufficient to lead us to hope that we may see the more accomplished. It is not TALKING our ruined countrymen want, but DOING. They do not ask us for Woids, but for Money. No man doubts their great and grievous necessities, and no man,we trust, will refuse to contribute to the utmost of his means towards relieving them. The pangs of bereavement are unhappily beyond our power to ward off let us at least prevent the bitterness of poverty and want being added to those afflictions. We can ob viate, although we cannot wholly remove, the anguish of widows and orphans, and he who can steel his heart to the woes which is around us at this moment must be indeed unnaturally callous. Already the first instalment of ruined men and women have landed on our shores, and the Lord Mayor of London has shown a great example to his fellows, in his conduct towards them. We can only repeat the appeal made on Thursday night to the inhabitants of Newport and its neighbourhood, and we trust that no individual will think that he can give too much towards so touching a cause. Above all, let the money be handed in imme- diately. It is now that it will be of the greatest scrvice. Delay will deptive it of half its value. The Mayor has kindly undertaken to receive subscriptions, and it is to be hoped that the public will not wait to be personally called upon before they subscribe. With regard to the spirit exhibited at the meeting on the general question of the insurrection, we" have 3 only to remark that it was perfectly befitting the occasion. Everyone spoke with the greatest abhorrence of the inhuman barbarities inflicted by the miserable fanatics on defenceless women and children. The Vicar, notwithstanding his calling, did not attempt to raise the cuckoo cry of "peace" and mercy" heard some time ago, from a few quarters. "He hoped that those who had undertaken the work of vengeance would remember they were Chris- tians more he could not say. There must be a vengeance exacted, that he felt." 'J hese re the precise sentiment's with which the subject ought to be regarded, neither too violent on the one hand, nor repulsively moderate on the other. It is impossible to feel pity for the demons who have murdered Englishmen in cold blood, and done worse to Englishwomen, and we may rest assured that, in the sense the Vicar intended his words to be applied, our troops, while taking full and summary vengeance, will not "forget that they are Christians."

WE observed last week that the Christchurch Local Board of Health deserved to receive the cordial support of the public in carrying out the useful work of drainage upon which theii attention is now concentrated. That support, however, has at present been displayed in a very left-handed and melancholy manner. It is known that some people have an odd way of showing their friendship. An evil-disposed person must have been amusing himself by circulating delusive rumours of wealth at the disposal of the Board, and a few of the land- owners in the neighbourhood appear to have had their lively imaginations turned by the story. It is notorious how eagerly people will pursue any phantom which holds gold in one hand and beckons with the other, and just at this moment there are hosts of these seductive will-o'-the-wisps around Maindee. They whis- per soft nonsense" in the ears of our small proprietors, and conjure up visions of splendid mansions, family coaches, blood horses and a little further a-head perhaps a baronetcy, or- who knows ?-even a peerage. One little word is sufficient to erect a multitude of these atmos- pheric castles, and that word is-COMPENSATION J Not a very long word, but there isn't a greater favourite in the language with land- owners, nor, on the other hand, is there one whose sound is so utterly detestable to railway directors. Let a man but find out that a com- pany require to make use of his property, and if he has not enough ground to fill a dozen average garden pots he expects to make his fortune out of it incontinent. It is surprising that with all the difficulties of this sort Railway Companies have had to combat, some of our great lines were ever constructed at all, and it is only at an enormous and ruinous expense that they really have been completed. Now, the Christ- church Board begin to find themselves the subjects of great expectations." Hands are held out to them from all side?, and voices are crying Give Give Our good friends the proprietors of land through which the new drainage pipes will have to pass, regard the Board in the light they would a railway com- pany, as a something out of which as much money is to be squeezed as possible. No mercy is to be shown to them, and no quarter given. Already several applications have been made for COMPENSATION, and one notice hs even been received, drawn up in official hand- writing, threatening legal proceedings and aH sorts of horrid measures unless the ravishing gold is immediately poured into the lap of the ingenious landowner. Why is this-! Is it seriously pretended that laying down a few narrow pipes will damage the ground so everlastingly as to aftord a just claim for com- pensation ? Surely no man is eccentric enough to suppose this. Even if a few inches of field are turned up the grass will grow again, and tbei e is not a farmer in the world who would reduce himself to ask for a few shillings as an atonement for so slight an injury. The people who have sent in claims for compensation, without specifying any amount, but evidently having fixed in their minds fabulous sums, have been suffering under two mistakes First, in supposing that their land will be so injured as to entitle them to recompense and secondly, in auguring that the Christchurch Board are incredibly rich and able to pay any amount. In indulging in either of these ideas our friends have been greatly deceived. We can assure them the Board is very poor, and can hardly manage to discharge the expenses which are actually incidental to their operations. They have just been compelled to make a fresh general and special rate, whereat the inhabi- tants of Maindee will not at all rejoice, and the money will not be collected from them without a deal of difficulty. It is a plain impossibility that they could, even if they would, contract fresh expenses; and, in their present dispo- sition, they would not do so if they could. These applications can therefore only be pro- ductive of disappointment to those who make them, while they cause annoyance to the Board and interfere with the progress of the business. Let landowners be reasonable: they can sus- tain no injury themselves, and certainly they have no just pretence for trying to perpetrate an injury upon others.
CHRISTCHURCH BOARD OF HEALTH
CHRISTCHURCH BOARD OF HEALTH The fortnightly meeting of this Board was held at Maindee, on Wednesday last, when the following mem- bers were present:—Mr. W. Graham, chairman, Mr. R. Graham, Mr. Wella, Mr. T. Richards, and M Andrews. Mr. Kesaick was also in attendance. The Chairman asked whether Jacob Roberts had paid his rate, and the Surveyor replied that he had not. The Board decided to proceed against Mr. Roberts, jun., unless the money is paid. PREPARATIONS FOR BUSINESS. A tin box was produced, on which is painted in larffa letters, "Chnstchurch Local Board of Health." This is intended as a receptacle for papers connected with the Board, solicitor a hills, &c., and it u belieTed bu6iaefiB will be greatly facilitated by its use. MR* WOOLLETT* S CUAHGE. The Chairman said he had received the following letter »»' rrL' W l^e lattor ha<l received from Mr. bythe^' reference to the charge recently disputed „ "Newport, Mon., 23rd Sept., 185T- Dear Sir,—Christchurch Drainage. I have had a most extraordinary communication from the Christchurch Board, offering me one guinea, untier protest, in payment of my charge in respuct of the agreement with the Newport Board. So far as the liability of the Christchurch Board is concerned (and to that I presume their protest applies), I will refer you to my letters to the chairman, Mr. W. Graham, of the 17th Sept., and 9th October, 1856; and as to the amount of my charges, so far from being exces- sive, it is not one half of what it would be if I had made out a regular bill, and when I handed you the paper you appeared to think it was verv moderate. If I had imagined there woul.l have been anyd jmurlshould not hav« parted with the papers till my bill was paid. The con- duct of the Board in this maiter must satisfy the public that the Newport Board were fully justified iu having a stringent agreement before they allowed the Christchurch Board to carry their drainage through our district. If the three guineas be paid at once I will take it but if I am obliged to make out my bill, I shall expect to be paid the amount, whatever it may be. Yours very truly, H. Farr, Esq." "WoLLETT." Mr. Welis said that it was a most extraordinrry letter and it was a piece of impertinence to allude in the man- ner Mr. Wollett did to the transactions of the Christ- church Board with the Newport Board. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Graham Well, it may be impertinent, but, I Th n? have to pay „ reasonable sum.

This would be d;>r,e without recognising the liability of the Board to pay him anything at all. This resolution was passed un. uraously, previously to which Mr. Woollen's original leuers, refe,red to in the above, were examined and the Board decided that they did not make them liable for any charges. SOLICITOR'S CHARGES. The bills from Mr. H. Farr were received, and read amid various jocosp allusions to lawyer's bills in general. Further consideration deferred. THE NEW RATE. The document calling tor the recently imposed rate was produced and signed, Mr. Andrews, a member of thf Board, being ser.t for to make up the necessary number The Chairrarn asked whether Garland and Daw had paid their rates, and was informed that the former had but the latter had not. A summons was directed to be issued against Ddw. COMPENSATION The following document was sent in by Mr. Moses and read by the chairman :— lo ]lfr.
