It is obvious that in future no professional adviser should allow his client to grant an underlease without making provision for this contingency, and the question arises how this provision should be framed so as, while securing the underlessor, to avoid annoyance to the underlessee. There are few persons better fitted than our correspondent to solve this question, but, unlike the ancient saint, his learning doth never outrun his prudence, and for the present he prefers to hear, rather than to make, suggestions.

As to the metropolis, the 117th section of the Metropolitan Management Act, 1855, provides that “every vestry shall cause any footway within their parish or district to be scraped, swept, or cleansed in such manner and at such times as they think fit." “ But this enactment,” it is added, “shall not relieve any occupier from any liabilities to scrape,” &c. The reference, we presume, is to the Marylebone Act above cited, and to the general 60th section of the Metropolitan Police Act, 1839, by which “every occupier of a house" in the Metropolitan Police District who shall not keep sufficiently swept and cleansed all footways adjoining to the premises occupied by him” is liable to a penalty of forty shillings. In country districts the Highway Act, 1835 (5 & 6 Will. 4, c. 50), s. 26, enacts that, “ if any impediment or obstruction shall arise in any highways from accumulation of snow," the surveyor shall, from time to time, and within twenty-four hours after notice thereof from any justice of the peace of the county in which the parish may be situate, cause the same to be removed.
