Mr. LIVERSEDGE differed from Mr, Scott, remarking
that the local act was obtained fof the purpose of
removing nuisances es far as practicable ; hut he had no
'doubt the ashpita might be emptied for a smaller sum
than the amount of the present. tender. The -b} slaws
could compel the parties to remove the -.nuisances; -.or
the Board might do it, and charge the. tenants with the .
expense. He had been credibly informed that St. Paul's
could be done for ./70, and Higher Tranmere Ter
Then there would remain- Lower • Tranmere" Only ; so
that,theexpeuse. would be about $lOO smaller than-the
tender. He therefore supported Mr. Scott's amendment,
Mr. WILLIAMS, in his reply, remarked that if one
child were to die in consequence of disesse arising from
the filthy state of the township, more than £270 would
be lost; even estimating the childten.itt thePtice'blact
children were sold in the -American market..: •
On Mr..Scutt's amendment being put to .the meeting,
it was carried by a majority of four.
Mr. WILLIAMS immediately left the room, remarking

that wished the board all success, and that he would
nerer.beseen there again. (Laughter.)
