Mr. Moore, heretofore Inward Auditor, at £5O per annum, to be Inward Book-keeper, at £lOO per annum, the salary hitherto allowed.

There are some very important matters on the proceedings of the Finance Committee which require the serious attention of the Council. The following letter, relative to the foreshore at Birken head, was then read : " Office of Woods and Forests, 27th Sept., 1853. " Sir,—Upon the receipt of your letter of the 27th ult., I have consulted Mr. John Stewart upon your proposal to purchase the rights of the Crown in the foreshore fronting the two separate properties of the Corporation of Liverpool and Birkenhead, at the price of £4,000, and having now re ceived Mr. Stewart's report, and that the sum offered is the present fair value of the foreshore referred to, I sh ill be prepared to recommend to the Lords of the Treasury the acceptance of your proposal, upon hearing from you that the Corporation have approved of the proposal, and have duly au thorised the, purchase of the Crown rights in the foreshore in question, at the price above-mentioned. "I am Sir, your obedient servant, " CHARLES GORE. " Hugh 'bray, Esq." The SURVEYOR reported that the lighting-up of the Town Hall Clock would be attended with danger to the structure, the portion of the doom in which the clock is placed being entirely of wood. Mr. Alderman HOLMES then proposed the promotions and alterations of the duties of officers and clerics in the Town Dues Office, as above stated. Mr. Alderman PnocrEit seconded the motion, which was unanimously agreed to. Mr. Alderman HOLME then moved that the salary of Mr. Archibald Twecdie, chief clerk to the treasurer, be raised from £2OO to £3OO per annum. Mr. Tweedie had been a clerk to the Treasurer to the Water Committee at a salary of £250. and every gentleman who knew the duties he had to perform, particularly Mr. Preston, the Auditor, would say that he deserved the proposed increase. Mr. H. BANNER seconded the motion. He had had ex perience of Mr. Tweedie's abilities, in a very trying account of the Corporation, and he (Mr. Banner) thought Mr. Tweedie was one of the most valuable servants the Corpora tion had. Mr. BIGIIAM would oppose this increase of salary. Those already passed were not so much increases as a re-arrange ment of the offices, and, although there were some of those arrangements to which exception might be taken, still they did not affect the funds of the Corporation to any extent; but, in this case of Mr. Tweedie's, there were different grounds, indeed. In the first place, the present was a time of the year when they should be cautious in increasing salaries (and, by the bye, this was a good time to oppose the increase, as lae was likely to be supported by some gen tlemen in the north end of the room, in consequence of the approach of the Ist of November). In another month, the Chairman of the Finance Committee would lay before the Council a statement of the accounts, and lie (Mr. Bigham) Understood the surplus of £50,000, which they had two years .750... ago, had dwindled down to £12,000 or £14,000 ; and it was FOR BOSTON. CHAS. HUMBERSTON, WILLIAMS .... even doubtful whether it would be that. During the last MARY ADELINE, VESPER 600 1300 twelve months, not a single month had passed without an JOSEPHUS, PAINE 758 1640 increase of salary being made. There, was no gentleman LEXINGTON. ThossrsoN .950 1900 who knew what those increases amounted to. Would it AMELIA, M'KENziz 6uo 1350 FOR MELBOURNE, PORT PHILIP. not, therefore, be desirable to have the names of the parties, MOORESFORT, -......2000..—0ct0ber Ist. the amount of the increases, contrasting them with the BEN NEVIS, HER0N...... - I former salaries of the parties, and with the amounts paid For passage, and all particulars, apply to JAMES CHAMBERS and CO., 61, Waterloo-road to similar officers in other towns. There could be no objection to this. Supposing Mr. Tweedie were entitled to this increase, it was only postponin n cr it for a month. The different departments of the Council were so many little states, and he could compare them to nothing but the old Saxon heptarchy. Each little state had a petty ruler and king, and the consequence was they had a Town Clerk and Treasurer for each Committee, and, in fact, a special set of officers for each committee; necessitating an expenditure far greater than was needful. (Hear, hear.) What was the necessity for all this ? As regarded the Treasurer more especially, he believed that the duties of Mr, Ashlin and the Treasurer of the Corporation might be one, and it would save a considerable amount. Besidel, they had had no reason given for this increase. Why did not the Chairman of the Finance Committee speak out ? Would any man tell him (Mr. Bigham) that the Deputy Treasurer was entitled to more than £2OO per year? Did he do more than was done by a clerk in the office of one of their principal merchants ? Did he receive or pay as much money ? (No, no.) But what was the secret of this recommendation ? Was not the Treasurer an aged man, and would the Com mittee hare recommended this increase if they had a young and active Treasurer ? (Hear, hear.) He (Mr. Bigham) did not believe they would, and if this case was to be met in the way it should be, they should recommend that Mr. Wybergh be superannuated and Mr. Tweedic, if they pleased, appointed in his stead. He moved that this part of the prcceedings be referred back to the Finance Committee, until the annual statement of accounts of the Corporation be laid before the committee, and that it be an instruction to the committee to prepare a return shelving the increase of salaries sanctioned within the last twelve months. Mr. BECKWITH, seconded the amendment. Mr. Alderman Pnocrou referred to the standing orders to show that such a return as Mr. Bigham referred to, was before the committee at the last meeting, and therefore his complaint could not be made good. Mr. BIGHAM—There was a return on the table, but he was alluding to the statement of accounts. Mr. Alderman PROCTOR was alluding to Mr. Tweedie. Mr. Alderman PARKER said Mr. Bigham had referred to the north end of the room, but he thought there was no difference as regarded either ends of the room—he also said that the committee should be honest. Mr. BIGHAM did not use the word. Mr. Alderman PARKER—If Mr. Bigham did not— Mr. BIGHAM why put it in my mouth. ? Mr. Alderman PARKER—WeII, straightforward—He appealed to Mr. Preston, the auditor, whether Mr. Tweedie's work had not increased to a degree which could not have been anticipated. There were the Bath and: several other accounts, and to his (Mr. Parker's) knowledge, Mr. Tweedie had been in the building up to nine o'clock at night getting his work done. Mr. Alderman PRESTON, as the auditor of the corporation accounts for the last two years, stated that the books of the Corporation were now kept in a much more efficient manner than they were The accumulation of work was very con siderable, still the accounts could be audited in less time, in consequence of the admirable system adopted by Mr. Tweedie. The Corporation would do well in voting this increase. (Hear, hear.) _ _ Mr. „ Alderman LANGDALE also bore testimony to the valu able services of Mr. Tweedie, and said no man better deserved an increase of salary.. The amendment was then put, and negatived by a majority of 36 to 7. _ _ Against the Amendment : Messrs. Robert Aked, Thomas D. Anderson, John Moss, Oliver Holden, Charles Turner, James Tyrer, Harmood Banner, Walter P. Jeffreys, John Gladstone, jun., William, A. Clayton, Thomas Wagstaff, John M‘Nicoll, James A. Tobin, John B.

Holmes, James Parker, Thomas Robinson, Joseph Cooper, James Procter, John Bent, J. Hayward Turner, Thomas Clifton, the Mayor. For the Amendment : Messrs. John Woodruff, James Thomson, John Bigham, Edward Bradley, Thomas Avson, Thomas Fleming, Richd. M. Beckwith. INTOLERANCE IN THE COUNCIL Mr. Alderman HOLM then moved the confirmation of a recommendation to grant the reversion of a piece of land in Pilgrim-street and Hope-place, for the site of the school in connexion with the Liverpool ebrew Congregational Insti tution. Mr. Alderman PROCTOR seconded the motion, which was about to be put, when . Mr. Alderman BENNETT rose and said he could not. allow this motion to pass so far as he was concerned. Mr. Alderman HoLmEs said they had granted reversions to all other schools in the same way, and he hoped the Council would not go against the Jews. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Alderman BENNErr rose to oppose the motion, al though he did not expect to find a seconder. (Hear, hear.) He was oppose to the introduction of religious subjects into the Council, still he could not allow this opportunity to pass without stating his views. As had been stated by Mr. Holmes, it had been usual to grant freeholds for schools, or rather for the sites of schools and churches, and for this reason : that by having the freeholds vested in them, they might obtain from Govei nment certain advantages which, they held their buildings on leasehold land, they could not obtain. That was a good,. sufficient, and ample reason why this should be done ; and it was also on this condition—it was so long as they were used for the purposes for which the ground was given them as freehold. Now, here the parties came before them, requesting them to give them the freehold of a piece of land, and for what ? Why, for the purpose of building a school for the propagation of doctrines which they all believed to be false and erroneous (oh, oh) • in fact, to bring up the rising generation of Jews in the belief that our Saviour was an impostor. (Cries of oh, oh, and order.) The MAYOR : I think we had better not introduce theolo gical subjects. The question was, whether they would do in the case of the Hebrews what they had done to all other denominations. The value ofthe freehold was very trifling. Mr. Alderman BENNErr : It was not the value of the freehold. He hoped the Council would not mistake him. Mr. Alderman HOLMES : You can vote against it, and not make a long speech. (Hear, hear, and laughter). Mr. Alderman Pnocron: Perhaps if Mr. Bennett knew that they paid a certain sum of money for it he would be satisfied. It was not given them. Mr. Alderman BEN NETT : It was not the money question at all. It was the grant of the freehold, and so compelling them, so long as they retained it, to go on propagating . the same doctrine. The Council was aware of his views, if no gentleman would second him. Mr. THOMSON : Mr. Bennett's argument was not worth a straw, because they could buy land in the same locality. Mr. R. GLADsron would sk Mr. Bennett, could he make the Jews Protestants by refusing them the ground ? (Hear, hear). The MAYOR rose to order. Mr. Alderman BENNETT wished to answer the question if he were allowed. The MAYOR : No, no, Mr. BIGIIMI : Are not those the parties who are refusing anything like a reasonable sum for the projection in Hard man-street ? The MAYOR : No, no. They arc not the same parties The TOWN CLERK : It turned out they were not the same parties. They had no control over it. The motion was then put and carried. Thomas Grisenthwaite was then appointed mace-bearer, in the room of James Halmll, at a salary of £lO a year. THE RIGHT TO THE FORESHORE AT BIRKENHEAD. Mr. Alderman HOLMES had great pleasure in proposing that the proposal of the Hon. Mr. Gore, relative to the fore shore at Birkenhead, be accepted. At one time they thought they would ,have to go to Chancery, but now by paying £4,000, their right to the foreshore would be established. Mr. Alderman Pnocron seconded the motion, to which he did not think there would be one dissentient voice. This amount was for the whole of the foreshore, connected with the rights of the property of the Corporation, and not only for the foreshore opposite Mr. Wilson's yard, but also that up to Woodside. He thought there would be no discussion on the subject. Mr. It. GLADSTONE, as one of the deputation which went to London, approved of the arrangement entered into by . the Finance Committee, and he took that opportunity of saying, quite irrespective of the Government in power at the time, that he never was more satisfied than he was on the late oc casion, the advantage they derived in their interview with the woods and forests, from the circumstance of plain, straightforward statements having been made in that room, on the subject, showing that the Government was in the wrong, and that the Corporation was right. They found on reaching London, that some kind friend had sent Mr. Gore a copy of the newspaper or newspapers which contained what took place in the Council-room, and he (Mr. Glad stone) had no hesitation in saying it was in a very great de gree owing to what fell from various gentlemen in that room, on the occasion, that this arrangement had been so satisfac torily completed. (Hear, hear). Mr. TYRER had great pleasure in congratulating the town on this arrangement, because there would have been a great deal of expense and delay had they gone into Chancery. It was a great advantage. Shipbuilding, he hoped, would be immediately commenced on this very land. They had to pay £4,000, but they would get this amount in rent, by the time, in which, - in all probability, litigation would have been ended. GLADSTONE said, some time ago he ventured to sug gest that marine store licenses should not be granted to parties who proposed to carry on business in cellars. He wished to know whether his suggestion had been adopted or not ? The MAYOR : I think I may venture to say very great vigilence is now exercised both by the officers who make the reports, and the parties who grant the licenses. hear.) The proceedings were then confirmed, (Hear, - • WATCII CdMMITTEE. The proceedings of this Committee, on . tho 'notion of Mr. Tobin, seconded by Mr. Gregson, Were, ••evonfirnied - without discussion DOCK COMMITTBE. Mr. C. TURNER moved the confirniation of the proceed ings of this Committee, which was carried neon. dis. IMPROVEMENT COMMITTEE. The proceedings of this Committee, comprising the reso lutions and reports referred back for further consideration at the last meeting of the Council, were next read. They contained the following:, on the subject of Town improvement's : " In accordance with the resolution of the Committee at their last meeting, the Surveyor submitted a plan, sliming a proposed line of New-street 24 yards wide, and on the natural level, commencing near the south portico of St. Georges Hall, and terminating in Dale-street, at the east side of Colonial-buildings, opposite Moorfields. The Sur veyor also subrated a model, showing the alterations to be effected, by the high level, approaching from Shaw-brow, to Dale-street ; and in accordance with the instructions of the Council, the Committee proceeded to consider the compara tive advantage and disadvantage of a, communication between St. George's, Hall and Dale-street, being made upon the high level; or by a new communication on the ordinary level and that the following observations occurred to the Committee as the most 1 Tomment to each case. First :—As to the high level:—The formation of the approaches at the north end of St. George's Hall, now in progress, renders it essential that additional width should be obtained at the upper end of Shaw's-brow, and property will have to be purchased for this purpose, whether the level be or be not altered. Second--the present approach from Dale street, to Byrom-street is inconvenient and dangerous, Dale street forming the natural and direct approach from the eastward to the Town Hall. That the abrupt descent in Shaw's-brow, causes it to be comparatively little used. Third:—The bridge as proposed, would give a road upon an easy descent from the north end of St. George's Hall into Dale-street, westward of Hatton-garden. Fourth : The Corporation have already purchased the property ,on the south side of Dale-street, between Crosshall-street, and Sir Thomas's-buildings, and have thus the means of making. that Street, between those points, of the news Fifth :—They have also purchased the Gas Works on ti north side of Dale street, and arc thus enabled, to - derable extent, to widen Hatton-garden. Sixth :—lf o. improvements were effected, a direct line upon an easy gra dient would be afforded for the very heavy traffic, from the north end of the town, over the proposed bridge to the east ward. Seventh :—The bridge itself, would form a fine architectural feature, and afford a beautiful view of the Hall. The only serious objection that would present itself, is the supposed injury to the property in Byrom-street, and the Old Haymarket, but it will be seen from the model, that a convenient access for Vehicles and foot passengers, could, if thought necessary, be given from, and to the top of Shaw's-brow, to the Old Haymarket, and Byrom-street, which would obviate this supposed injury, and the property in the direct line would be purchased." "As to the proposed New Street on the natural level; First :—That it cuts through a mass of property in which it is very desirable to make improvements. Second :—That it would connect the great.line of Dale-street, with White chapel, Church-street, and other central thoroughfares ; the present communication between which, is extremely circu itous, difficult and inconvenient. Third :—That it would afford a commodious, and easy access from St. George's Hall, and from the London and North Western Railway Station, to the Town Hall, the Landing Stage, and Tithebarn-Street Railway Station.

The cost of calming out the higlc level, would b by meatis of the New Street, £142,500, togethei Baying submitted to the Council these observations, on the two plans, the Committee report their opinion , that the rapid increase of the traffic of the Town will very shortly, render both improvements requisite ; and having maturely consi dered the subject, they therefore,' recommend the Council to apply to parliament for powers to carry out both plans, and also the improvements recommended in the resolution of the 12th inst. Having also, considered the reference from the Council, as to improvements in Burlington-street, Bostock-street, Eldon-place, Bevington-bush and Lime kiln-lane, your Committee recommend the Council to carry out all those improvements, except Bostock-street." The MAyou then read a resolution from the Improve ment Committee, appointed at the Town's meeting, ap proving of the plans submitted to the Council. Mr. GLADSTONE asked if that were not the time to read a memorial, very numerously and respectably signed, which he had been requested to present to the Council. The MAYon replied that it was ; and the memorial was accordingly read. It was from the inhabitants of Dale street, Byrom-street, and that locality; and it very strongly stated the objections of the residents in those streets to the High Level Bridge. The resolution passed in the Session house, on the 11th June, 1852, expressive of the propriety of applying the surplus revenue of the Corporation to obtainf an act to carry out the improvements agreed to, was also read. It was forwarded to the Mayor, with a request that he would lay it before the Council. Mr. BEN NETT then rose to move the adoption of the report of the Improvement Committee. He said he was glad that these two documents had been read, and that now that the subject was before the Council, and before the bill was framed, the Committee would have the advantage of hearing the opinions of the different members of the Council who took an interest in it. In accordance with the instructions of the Council at its last meeting, the Improvement Com mitte had gone very fully into the consideration of the im provements referred to them ; and the minutes which had been read, had been almost unanimously carried in the Committee. There was a difference of opinon, certainly, amongst the members as to the desirability of constructing a bridge over Shaw's Brow, in preference to the cutting off of a portion of the Brow, so at to get moderate levels without the con struction of a bridge at all ; and as the Council would decide between them that day, so, of course, would the bill be drawn. He would now read the list of the different im provements, omitting those which had been agreed to at the last Council, and the estimate set down for each. The first which the surveyor had put on the list was the estimated cost of the proposednew street, twenty four yards wide, from Dale-street, opposite the end of Moorfields, to the top end of Roe-street, including all the property between Queen's square and St. John's Lane—the total cost being estimated at £142,500. The next was the estimated cost of the proposed new street on the high level, from Shaw's Brow, to Dale-street, 22 yards wide, including the bridge over the end of Byrom-street, £90,600. The other estimates were, the cost of widening Hatton-garden, £15,150 ; the comple tion of the improvement at the bottom of Water-street, £7,250, and of Hardman-street, £1,500 ; improvement of Limekiln-lane, £13,000 ; of Bevington-bush and hill 'from Banaster-street to St. Barbington-street, £27,800; provement of Eldon-place, £2,400; and 'improvement of corner of Barbington-street and Love-lane, £1,370; the estimated total cost of all the iMprovements being £301,570. The report entered rather fully into the advantages of all the improVements which they recommended the Connell to adopt; and the more he thought on the subject, the more fully was he convinced of the economy of doing these things, and at once. There would, in the first place, be a great increase in the traffic from the southern pediment of St. George's Hall to Dale-street, and in . proportion there would be an increase in the value of rateable property . by that means. He had no doubt that the property would be im proved by several thousands, and that when the streets were completed, the rate to be raised would amount to some thousands more than the property which it was proposed to pull down, at present yielded. He had tried to make some calculation as to the number of persons who would use this street, and taking the number of persons who crossed the river as his basis, and who were calculated at 8,000,000, he thought that he would be safe in setting down the number who would pass backwards and forwards through this street, at that figure. The interest upon the proposed outlay would not amount to a farthing a head upon that number of persons, and he would ask any gentlemen present, whether he would not cheerfully pay that farthing to get to the neighbourhood of the Exchange, along a wide mid open street, rather than run the risks, he at present ran? in getting from St. George's Hall to that quarter. Objec tions had, however, been raised to this *street on the score of the level. He had, therefore, taken some pains to ascertain how the levels would run, by comparing them with the streets at present in use for large traffic, and he had found that the level of this street from 'Whitechapel to St. George's Hall would be 1 in 27, and from Whitechapel to Dale-street, lin 40. He would now tell the Council - how that was, as regardei the levels of other streets. The level of Lord-streetwas 1 in 30 ; of Bold-street 1 in 33 ; and of Ranelagh-street, 1 in 22 ; and the Council could easily see that these levels were by no means bad levels. As regarded the property through which the street would pass, it was altogether property of little value ; for with the ex ception of that coming out into Thile-street, there was scarcely any property on the line which could not be,pur chased at a very moderate rate. A great deal of it was of the character of the house which fell down in l'recott street—houses which, if not taken down very soon, would fall of themselves. Another advantage of this road was, that it would interfere with no public bi iildino, except the old Fish Market, and the Milk Market, buildings already in the hands of the Corporation, and of very little value. On the score of health, no street could be made in any, por tion of the town, possessing this advantage more thoroughly than the street which he advocated—(hea:r ' hear)—and it would further drive from Peter-street *ll'l'oton-street,
