A special meeting was held in the Council Chamber yesterday, the Mayor, D. HODGSON, Esq.. in'the chair, to tette mtceconsideration and determine upon special pro ceedinzse-resolutions, and directions of the Dock Com mittee ofthee2.B-11 tilt., as to the immediate completion of 'the Aibert43-ock Warehouses, and the se eeral-elauses and Previsions of the proposed new dock bill, the object of which istonnable the trustees to construct afelitional wet end other-'works at Wrapping, to raise a million of money, and to extend and amend the acts relating to the docks and harbour of : , Liverpool. The proceedings commenced by the Couneelresolving itself into a committee todiscuss the clauses of the latter. The Towns CLERK read the preamble, which, after re citing theezistirig dock acts, and that the trustees bare proceeded in the construction of the verious works thereby directed, estates that the trade and commerce of the port are rapidly increasing. and that more etxtensive central dock aecornmodetion is required ; and that it -is expedient thatehe-wet docks, and other works autherised by the vr o pased , cet, should be forthwith construeted ; and that for the peeps-se cf facilitating the general business of the part, and of affording safety and pro , ectionsto vessels fre aquenting she docks, it is expedient that-art internal water VOW u nips:ion between the docks should :-beprovided for thorernoeal of vessels from and into the docks, whereby tile present risk and delay, occasioned by the necessity of entering the river for the purpose of such:en:oval, will be obviated; and that part of the street called '" East Side SalthousetOock," consists of dock e,uays not hitherto in closed for-dock purposes, and that the sure street, toge ther with 7" Duke's-place" and * 4 Wapping'," form one co n tinnousline, which is the principal thoroughfare for the conveyance of merchandize to ,andtfrom the central eloelte; art that the some road, being of insefficient width for :the- convenient use of carts and carriages employed thereon, - it is desirable that a new fstree,toinstead of the last-mentioned streets, should be formed on he lands au thorisedite,te purchased under the powers of the proposed set. to-extend from Canning-plane to the north-east side of the strett called " East Side Queeri'sMock," Ike. stir. lasedeses said he should propose to meet the pream ble with a decided negative. The allegations on which it rves.propcsset to found this bill were mot borne out by the facts ; anti he was prepared to prove that they haJ a great deal mare 'dock room now in existence, and in course of construction than they were likely to require. The only argument offered in their support of a tanesiiKe character was that of the expediency of internaiwater communication from one end of the docks to the other; •and that com munication ought indeed to be worth mentioning, if it was to be sebtained at the expense of -such an enormous outlay. In 'former times, he had had something to do with rem( sing vessels from one deck to atutber. His ships in 00:V4 - girlie trade had to go eound•after discharg ing intheet: mg's Dock, and•they had never-cansidered it such an important and dangerous matter. -That necessity now nce longer existed in his own case.; butelee was pre pared to say, that the removal of ships through the docks would require greater expense and occasion greater delay. He could formerly get a ship round for ahee—(" oh," and expressions of dissent)—but the eaxeeirce of getting through all these numerous docks must inevitably cost a great.deal more. He expected he should be told something about the trouble and expense of ballasting ships which were sent .round; skit be did not think it necessary, at least it h a d never proved so in his own experience_; and with respeceta the-e.hance of accidents, he could only say, that for losty.years, during which period he had teen ac qmainted-With.dock matters, he had never .known of an accident. -He must, therefore, ask, was it : proper to pro vide for so improbable a contingency at so great an expense? .No . ; it would be altogether wrong. With regal] to the want of open docks, he had already stated that they bad not only sufficient. but that there would, before longeshe-a very great redundancy. Be ocosidered it would much facilitate the present discussion it' be re ferred to the speech of the chairman of the Doak Trustees on a former.oecasion (alluding to the published speech of Alderman illeamley•Moore on dock extension), awl which he had now before him, emblazoned in letters of gold—(a laugl4—and Jac:would rest his arguments on Abe-chair man's own-statements. The chairman had there *aid that he would be ,called on to make out the necessity that existed for further dock accommodation, and he ,stated that deck accounuedation bad alwat s I been in arrear of the necessity of the port ; and that when the new docks, now in course of .construction, were complete, .they would mill be in smear. He went on to observe that the increase alone of :dock business was now more than .suffi cient to employ all the new docks which were then in progress or which were contemplated and in another place the Chairmanttalked of the supply of dock accom modation tieing increased .25 per cent. on the whale. Now, in place of the increase now in course of construc tion being male 25 per cent., it was at least 80 per cent. - ; and therefore, the premises being so widely wrong, the chairman's own reasoning would be found to be -fal lacious. He believed it would be found that the great increase in the trade of the port had arisen from the application of steam to navigation ; and he admitted that there had been a great increase in the timber trade; and while speaking of the timber trade, he would take occa sion to refer to the contradiction given to an olo.ervation he (Mr. E.) had made at the last meeting. He bad stated his belief that the timber.trade was the most unprofitable tradeof the port,whereupontheckairmanimmediately arose, Ind with an air of trim)) piareferrea the Council to the returns ,of the Brunswick dock, which he said showed an increase of 646,000. He gave that as a decided answer; it had a larger ,income than that of any other .dock in the town ; but when he (Mr. Evans) referred to the comparative increase of the decks, to his great surprise he found that the Brunswick dock did not derive this income from the timber trade, but .from a variety of other sources; and that that sum ineltded the whole of the imports from British America, the whole of the Baltic, and from Newfoundland ; and that tallow, oil, ashes, and a varlets/ of other articles, besides timber, comprised the cargoes of the vessels dis charged in the Brunswick dock, and of coulee contributed to the income, and that out of the .£46,000, £19,000 was derived from this, source. He did not mean to accuse the chairman of a want of candour in this etatereent, but he believed Le acted from the impulse of the instant, and gave a hasty statement which he believed at the moment to be correct; but now an explanation bad been made an end was put to all the influence of that state ment, as an answer to his (Mr. Evans) former argument, arid as bearing on the question now at issue. In the course of his speech the chairman seised would you put a limit to the trade of the port? And he would answer for himself, that so far from putting a limit to their trade he would give the port the means of exten sion. He would say, bring in a bill, not for open docks, for which there can be no possible necessity—but give to the docks which already existed the necessary machinery of dock warehouses to render them efficient. ( Ulcer.) And then he was perfectly satisfied that one quarter of the space proposed for open docks:, if surrounded by ware. houses, would offer as adequate accommodation as the whole of. the remaining three quarters. (Hear, hear.) The Chairman bad seid— Mr, Nicol. rose to order. Were they discussing the Chairman's speech, or were they to decide on the details of the proposed bill ? Several ether reeepbere also arose to order. Mr. Ail; in, Mr. Hornby, and others contended that it was quite pro per to refer to the Chairman's printed speech, which might be considered a sort of official statement of the grounds on which the proposed measure was based. The Mavoa being a t length appealed to, his worship decided that the remarks of Mr. Evans were out of order as applied to the preamble, because 'he Council having at it n s former meeting agreed upon the principle of dock ex tension, 'hey could not, without specific notice for that purpme, again entertain the question. Mr. Evans' re mat ks, however, would be perfectly in order on the clauses. His worship concluded by expr' ssing the desire he felt that the fullest discussion should take plc while at the same time, when appealed to, he felt bound to main tain the proper order of their deliberations. The preamble was then agreed to, as was also clause 1. which proposed to enact that all reeit-d acts, except when repealed, altered,or otherwise provided for, should extend to the proposed act. Clause two was then read. It proposed to enact " That the trustees shall have power to take and use, and to cnn struct upon the lands described in the plan and book of reference, deposited with the clerk of the peace, or upon I any part thereof, such wet docks and basins, with piers. ! &e., and other works necessary to support and complete the same, and with entrances communicating with the other docks and with the river Mersey, according to such forms and plans,and of such dimensions, and of such mate rials, and with such surrounding walls and other conve niences as the trustees shall deem necessary and proper. Mr. EVANS then stated that he objected to the enortneus cost of the work, which he contended would amount to at least a million and a half of money, there being no equivalent in the ships going inland. He objected also on the ground of the inconvenience to the other vessels, which would be occasioned by the passing threuah the docks of ships going from one end of the town to the other. He objected again on the ground that they did not want open docks, and in reply to the allegation of the chairman that the new cloaks were already r ceupied in imagination, he said they were adding 80 acres to 108, which were as many as they could reasonably calculate on being wanted. Mr. Alderman MOORE said be had received many com pliments for the statement he had . the honour of making on a recent occasion ; but the greatest of all was that paid to him by Mr. Evan, because in dealing with the observations, having had plenty of time to consider tl.em, he had not only affirmed, but doubly affirmed, what he had then stated. Mr. Evans had stid that the advantages to be derived by internal communication would not be. compensated by the great expense, and that during a forty years' residence in Liverpool he had kn )svn of no accidents. Why, within the last two months. a vessel proceeding from the Queen's to the Prince's Dock was capsized hi her way. Such accidents were very frequent. Mr. A tr, IN —Was it in the river or in the dock? Mr. B. Moe:am—ln the basin ; hut if she had not been sent into the river and exposed to the wind she would not have capsized. Again. Mr. Evalis says he can pass his vest els cheaper through the river, that is for 305.; if he fi, ds that to be the case that privilege will not be taken away from him. What said a majority of the ship owners ? why, that ships should not go into the river. The complaints made were numerous and frequent on this , head. Mr. Evans made one or two observations on the timber trade to endeavour to invalidate what he had pre viously said. He remarked that the timber trade was a losing trade to the dock estate. That the whole dock estate produced on an average £2OOO per acre per year. So far from the timber trade being a losing trade he would take the Brunswick dock, which produced £46,000. Therefore if the whole estate pranced only £2OOO an acre, it was quite clear that nearly £2OOO per acre must be taken from the Brunswick dock to make up the deficiency of the others. With a view to show that the Brunswick dock produced a much larder amount than any of the other docks, be read the following statement of the receipts :—Clarence and Trafalgar docks £13.142; Victoria and Waterloo £C5,781 ; Prince's £37.049 ; George's £8169 ; Canning £3935; Saitbouse £7804 ; King's £15.407 ; Queen's (Martially a timber dock) £20,283 ; Coburg and Union £12,396 ; Brunswick £46,318 ; Toateth £2167 ; Harrington £312. Ile appealed to the Council whether his statement was not borne out to the letter; that this dock did not only pro duce the largest amount, but even 33 per cent. more than Princes. Mr. EvAss.—l never disputed the amount at all; I said the amount the timber contributed. Mr. Alderman Mootta.—There is a good deal of timber also in the Queen's-dock. Mr. LLOYD.—There is not one vessel in twenty. Mr. Alderman MooRE then replied to another remark made by Mr. Evans to the effect that if there were ware houses round the docks, a quarter of the spare would do the same business; by referring to the London docks round which warehouses were built, the tonnage there was only 5000 tons per acre on the water space, while in Liver pool, where they had not the advantage of warehouses round the docks, the average was 25,000 tons per acre.— Therefore, either in London they must be exceed . ngly over-docked, or here we must be monstrously under docked. One thing was quite clears—either we bad a great deal too little, or in London they had a great deal too much. With regard to all e,,isting commerce being accommodated—how had the trade been accommodated ? —Had they not seen 120 vessels et anchor at once, ex posed to storms and wind ; and people applying to him, as chairman of the 'dock estate, and complaining, in bitter terms, that they did not afford them accommodation. — That was the greatest reflection and the strongest argu ment which could be brought forward for going to parlia ment for further dock accommodation. It was one which ought not to have escaped him in bringing forward the measure, as it wee the greatest one. He appealed as to whether the vessels had been properly accommodated. There was another Abject on which he mould reply. Mr. Evans had said that the cost wiold greatly 'exceed the es timates, and that the advantages to be derived could form eo equivalent to the cost. With regard to the advantages to be thrived, he had never conversed with any one who entertained a contrary opinion, that they would be ade quate to the costs, and with regard to the estimates, with all due deference and with all respect for the talents, of the learned representative of St. Paul's Ward, be (Mr. B. M.) would attach more weight to the opinions of Mr. Wightman, Mr. Stewart. and the Dick Surveyor, whose estimate was less than Mr. Stewart's. if they were to place the matter in junta positioe, it would be then the opinions of Mr. Wig aman. Mr Stewart, and the Dock Surveyor versus the opinion of Mr. Evans. Mr. LLOYD remarked upon the great advantage to be derived from warehouses round the docks. Mr. HENDERSON said that the average time of dis charging all vessels at the transit sheds had been about four days, the average size of the vessel being 380 tons. Vessels from China, averaging 600 tons, were discharged in less than three days. Mr. AIKIN spoke in favour of dock warehouses, and said that he would beg the House of Commons not to pass this bill unless there was a clause inserted, allowing ware houses to be built round the proposed docks. He then argued that as gentlemen would not lease coppers about on their mantel-pieces, as a- temptation to servants and children, neither ought they, by means of new docks, bold out temptations to poor people. Mr. G. 11. L ,witereez -contended that more dock ac commodation was required. There was no doubt, from what wan going on in Parliament, there would be an ex tension of the trade and commerce of the country, and if they did not provide for that increase here -it would not only go to Cheshire, but to London and other parts of the country. They ought to open their arms as wide as they could for the increase of the trade. He argued that they should take every step to get warehouses round the new i docks. There was nothing in the compromise which could prevent them from so doing. He conceived the Dock Committee were to blame for not proposing the erection of warehouses round the docks. Mr. Ald. HORSFALL did not agree with Mr. Lawrence that the Dock Committee had been to blame for not in troducing a clause for the erection of dock warehouses, because they acted under the belief that there was a con • tract—an honourable compact—by which they were bound. but he quite agreed with Mr. Aikin as to the great moral and commercial advantages which would be derived from warehouses round the docks, and he thought that after what had been said on the subject, they would feel dis posed to promote the views propounded by Messrs. Evans and Aikin. There did not appear to be a second opini in as to the desirability of having warehouses, and he thought now the Dock Committee would feel themselves in a very different position. Mr. Horstall concluded by recom mending that a motion should be made recommending the erection of warehouses on the quays of the new docks. Mr. Alderman TURNER said he quite agreed with what had fallen from Mr. tiorsfall, and be begged to propose that it be an instruction to the Dock Committee to ois tain pewer in the proposed bill to construct warehouses ,round the new docks, it being the opinion of this Council that this measure will be productive of great benefit to the trade of the port, and conducive to the moral im provement of the inhabitants, by removing those induce moots to crime by the constant exposure of goods on the open quays. Mr. MANN contended that no good result would flow -from obtaining the power now, as the warehouses could not be built for some years, and then there would be time to-see whether the system was a good one, as far as re garded the management of the Albert Docks. The Tows-Ctinx, in reply to questions, said, Mr. Burke, the parliamentary agent, had given it as his opinion, that a clause for the erection of warehouses could Mill be introduced in the bill, and also a clause empowering the committee to borrow money for that purpose. Mr. TY,RER having been referred to by the chairman of the Dock Committee, said the advantage of vessels passing inland from dock to dock did not weigh a feather in the balance compared to the erection of warehouses round the docks. Mr. ROYDEW supported the motion. Mr. HARBO&D said it bad been stated that the Ware house Owners Association had no objection to the erec tion of warehouses round any of the docks. He begged to state, as one of the association , that he never heard the subject discussed or brought before the association. They simply withdrew from opposing the bill as regarded the completion of the warehouses round the Albert Docks. The Towa-ceenre here read the opinions of Mr. Aus tin and Mr. Crorupton, which were to the effect that the restrictions in the dock bill of 1841, for erecting dock warehouses did not apply to new docks, to the new qu'y on the Salthouse-dock, nor to the new docks sanctioned by the ith andl3th of Victoria—the new north docks, and th- Harrington estate at the south. Mr. Alderman Moots said the opinion of Mr. Wilde and the opinion of the dock solicitor were different from ,hose now read. - Mr. Alderman LAWRENCE seconded the motion of Mr. Turner. Ile said it was always his opinion there was no thing to prevent them from erecting warehouses except on the existing dock quays. Mr. AlJerman Moons; had no objection to the motion, but set:omitted that the word "recommendation" should he used instead of "instruction," inasmuch as It raised the (10-ePli01) 0, 0 the powers of the Dock cointaitteo. He for one held the opin'on that the Dock Committee was not a committee of the Council, inasmuch as parties. sat in the Dock Committee who were elected by the rate payers, over whom the Council had no jurisdiction- ":"; Mr. H. ITORNBY thought it desirable that the question should be raised. for if they shirked the question it would anpear as if the Council dtubted their rowers. The late- Town-clerk held that the power of originating bills rested entirely with the Council. Mr. G. H. LAWRENCE concurred with Mr. Hamby. The Dock Committee was merely a committee of this Council in trotters of this sort. On tie present occasion heth ught they were entitled , to " instruct" the colt- mittee. The TOWN-CLERK said it was perfectly clear that until the measure was an Act of Parliament it was the bill of the Council and not of the Dock Committee. _ _ ..._ _........ _...........“. Mr. HENDERSON contended that the locality of the new docks was not a desirable one for warehouses. The question was pot from the chair, and the following gentlemen voted for Mr. Alderman Turner's amendment, no gentleman recording his vote others ice—(tho 4 e wbo had spoken against it retired;—namely, Mears. Asher. ton, Thornhill, Houghton. Chain cr, Rathbone. Hill, Evans, Tyrer, Middleton. Littledale, Aikin, J. Holmes, H. llornhv. Tinne. Robinson, Sothern, G. G. ilorobY• Hoyden, Wood, Kaye, Reade, Kilshaw. Higgins. Parker Earle, G. H. Lawrence, Booke r . M ann , T. Ll oy d , Houghton, sen.. J. Lawrence, Sir T. Braneker, Turner, Sands, Nicol, Bramley-Moore, Molyneux, Chilton, and the Mayor. The TOWN CIARIEC then proceeded to read the different clauses of the bill. On clause two being read Mr. EVANS proposed the followin g amendment:— "That the trustees shall have power forthwith, if they shall think it necessary, to erect warehouses, with all proper conve niences, on the q uays of the new (locks, provided fo r by th e ac t of 1844, and to raises sum of money, not exceeding one million, to he raised by loan on the security of the dock rates, or to be paid for out of surplus income as they may, from time to time, find convenient, provided that no greater sum than .4150,00 be expended for this purpose in each year. " If the restriction be removed, this provision to apply to the old docks." This led to some discussion as to the compact betweem the Warehouse Association and the Dock Committee, when Mr. Bramlev-Moore said Le was authorised to state, in consequrn e of a conversation be had bad with the gentleman who had drawn up the resolution come to by the warehouse owners, and also by several of that body, that they withdrew their opposition to the repeal of the two clauses prohibiting the building of warebonses. Under these circumstances, he should net object to tba proposal of Mr. Evans, provided the Dock Committee were not re-. stricted according to the terms of the latter part of the. resolution. There being some doubt as to the extent of the conces sion of the warehnose owners, at the suggestion of the mayor, the resolution Come to by that body on the 3rd Fe%ruary was read by the town-clerk. Mr. HA aBORD said, as one of the Warehouse Owners' Association. he must say there did not appear to him to he the understanding amongst them alluded to by Mr. Brantley• Moore. 'What was understood by them was that if they (the warehouSe owners) withdrew their objection to the completion of the Aibtrt Dock warebott.es, it would prevent their having a wholesale scheme to contend with. Mr. Nrcol thought the concession of the warehouse owners did not go to the extent of withdrawing the re strirtions altogether—in fact the Dock Committee did not ask for more than relaxation so far atF related to the Albert Dock warehouses and warehouses along the east side of the proposed dock. Mr. RATHBONE asked what was the impression. The M Avon said impressions could not be taken ift. preference to words, when there was a doubt as to im pressions. The TOWN-CLERK suggested that it would be better to proceed with the clauses, and take the division afterwards. Clauses 3,4, 5, 6 7,8, 9, 10, and 11 were agreed to. On clause 12 which related to the c instruction of a new street in Wapping, which should be of the average width of the existing streets, the TOWN-CLERK sug gested that as the average width of the present streets as fifty feet, that number should be instr ed. The clause went on to empower the Corporation to take land at the price to be paid for it by the Dock Committee, and to make the street wider provided they were of opinion such a measure would be for the improvement of the town. A con,iderahle discussion arose on this subject, Mr. H. Hornbv, Mr. Earle, Mr. Rethbone, and Mr. J. Lawrence being of opinion that the cost of making a wider street than at present exists should fall upon the Dock Come mittee, because the improvements to be made in that neighbourhood were for the benefit of that estate. This view was opposed by Mr. Brarnley-Moore, Mr. Hender son, Mr. Tyrer, Mr. Evans, Mr. Aikin, and Mr. Horsfall. Mr. BRAMLEY-MOORE said he should resist to the utmost of his power the expenditure of one shilling received from the docks for other than dock purposes. Mr. Aisne agreed with Mr. Moore on this subject, and warned the Council how they proceeded in the matter,, lest the trusteeship of the docks should pass into other hands. Mr. HORSFALL did not approve of the strong language used on the subject; but, at the same time, there ought to be some weight given to the suggestion of Mr. Aikin, for it should be borne in mind that the dock ratepayers h4d interfered on a former occasion, and had succeeded in wresting a portion of the trust and of the !ands of the Corporation. He thought the matter might safely be left to arbitration. The TOWN-CLERK called the attention of the Council to the amendment of Mr. H. Hornby, which was, that the matter be referred to the Finance and Dock Commit tees to settle the proportion that each party should pay towards the improve ent. Mr. BRAMLEY MOORE should positively object to both the proposition of Mr. Horsfall and Mr. Hornby. It was for the Council to say whether it was an improvement to have a street wider than the present, and if so, it was for them to pay the cost Besides, he believed the Town- Clerk would tell them that it would be illegal to expend one shilling received from shipping otherwise than for matters connected with the docks. Mr. J. LAWRENCE here seconded the amendment of Mr. H. llornby. The MAYoR said, as he had originally been opposed to the clause in the bill as it at present stood, he might be allowed to observe, as a reason for the vote he should give, that on more mature consideration be thought the really sound cone union was, that the Corporation ought to make the improvements. (Hear, hear.) The old Corporation had made all the improvements which tha increase of the trade of the town demanded and he thought improvements should not be confined to any particular locality. ( Hear, hear ) The votes were then taken, when there appeered for the amendment, 8; against it, 25 : there voting for it. Messrs. ltathbone, IL Hornby, Touluiin, G. G. Hcrnhy, Kilshaw, W. Earle, J. Lawrence, and J. H. Turner ; against it, Messrs. It. Houghton, li. B. Hill, Evans, 'ryrer, Middleton, Littledale, Aikin, Freme, Henderson, Aspinall, Robinson, Royden, Wood, Reade, Parker, G. H. Lawrence, Mann. and Thos. Lloyd—Alder.nen R. Houghton, Horsfall, Nicol, Branaley-Moore, Molyneux, Chiltun, and the Mayor. The clause was then agreed to, the average width to be ascertained by the May r, and inserted in the bill. Clauses 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18, were then agreed to On clause 19 being read, Mr. EVANS pressed his amendment. Mr. ATKIN seconded the amendment, but should wish the restricted expenditure to he withdrawn. Mr. BRAMLEY MoORE said, after what had passed, be did not think the proposal would be objected to, but, on the contrary, that it would be generally approved of. Mr. G. H. LAWRENCE would cot oppose the amend ment, but he thought it would have been better to have delayed it until there was a proper understanding with• the warehouse owners. Mr. RoutNsoer said it should be borne in mind that it was another million of money the Dock Committee were to raise under the amendment; and he thought tie pro posal might injure the proposed erection of warehouses around the new docks. Mr. nem. would support the amendment, provided it was merely to give powers to raise the money, arid that the dock committee were not bound to carry out the objects of it at once. Mr. AIxIN said all they sought for was the power. it might appear hereafter to he more prudent to erect ware houses on the west side of Princes Dock than any where I elve. -- Mr. IIARBORD was sorry the whole subject had not been embraced in the original proposition of the dock com mittee to the warehouse owners. Asa member cf the lat ter body he bad nothing then to do, ether in acquiescing in or opposing the proposition. but be certainly had never before beard a word about the subject, and he thought the wart house owners generally would be equally taken by surprise. The resolution was then alfered at the suggestion of se veral members, and passed in the followingform That the Dock Trustees shall have power forthwith, if they shall think it necessary, to erect warehouses with a proper con- - venience on the quays of the new docks provided for by the' act of Mt, and to raise a sum of money not exceeding .41,000,000, to be raised by loan en the security of the Dock hates, or to be paid for out of surplus income, as they may from time to time find convenient." The Town Clerk then read the second part of the pro position as follows Provided that no greater sum than :6150,000 be ex pended for this purpose in each year." " If the restriction be removed, this provision to apply to the old docks." Mr. Nicol. said he should most decidedly object to this. Mr. TIMER said the passing of such a clause might possibly foster bestility to the general measure. The second part of the amendment was then put and lost by a majority of 19 to 9. The rest of the clauses of the bill. including some manuscript ones, were then read and agreed to after soma conversation. On a clause giving power to the Dock Committee to grant retiring pensions to superannuated officerv r there was a division, but the question was carried. After the clauses Ind been cone arough - , Mr. ASPIN ALL wished to know from the chairman of the Deck Committee whether any provision had been made for granting compensation to such tenants as would be ousted to make way for the new docks. Mr. BRAM Lhr-MOOILE said every thing had teen done' for them which they conld desire, except they wished to have the verdict of a jury beforehand. The Council broke up at ten minutes past four, having been five hours in tieliberation. In Lancashire, the colliers still remain on the strife—: coal having, in consequence, within the last month, ad vanced 21. per cwt.; and a large meeting wa3 held at St. Helen's on Monday, when Mr. ktoterts again took the field, accompanied by four delegates, who warmly ad-. dressed the assembly, urging that the on!v way for the colliers to increase their wages, was to stick to the union.
