TUE REMOVAL OT TUE FAME NOISAMCL-1
has now biotin. evident that when the legislature puma—
which it is said to have dens with some misgivings—the
measure for prevent.nst smoke nuisances, it only did an act
of justice to the peat belly of the inhabitants of large towns.
Thera were those lobe laughed at the Ms mg as an impari-
bility, sad declared the measure would be (mad to be im-
practicable in its erothisig. A few years' experience have
shown not only the possibility of rent' greatly diminishing
the emission of smoke from the lofty chimneys of the cotton
mills, but strangers now visiting Maachester, who had
occasionally seen it its the days of yore—in its smoky days es
we may say—are perfectly astonished at the improvement
which has been effected. A statement before the
trates of that tows, made yesterday morning,
a number of manufacturers were summoned
for allowing too much smoke to proceed frees their own
chimneys, strikingly illustrates this fact. Ur. Heron, the
town-clerk, brought forward the charms, and called wit-
nesses to prove that one of the manufacturers sammamed
(Mr. Shaw) had a chimney which had been watched km a
whelk week, for nine bouts per day, and the average mike
emitted each day was, dense smoke for an hour and • bat,'
and a moderate quantirity of 'mike for a like period, ea ef
the Dninehours dung which the chimney was availed.
Some other eases (gutsily bad were proved. rhe town-
clerk then addumd evidence to show what menufeetturers
could do to abate the nuisance, and it was proved that from
the ch'mary of Mr. Lamb, cotton-spinner, there was only a
moderate amount of smoke for two minutes out of three boon;
during the rest of the time the smoke emitted was senseely
perceptible. Snake was only observed for five minutes me
of the whole nine hours. The Orford-road Twist Commemes
Water had been watched, and gave oat in one how aid
a half on en average dense smoke for rue minute end a
mo !erste amount of smoke tot one minute only. Motifs
selected for the observation was from half-part
11 o'clock dB
sae ; and on another day, when the observation was made
from two is the afternoon till half-past three, the quantity of
smoke was moderate for one minute only ; the rest a the
period there was no perceptible smoke.—Mr. Shaw said he
had done much to sure his chimney, and could net abate
the nuanoe.—The saagletrate replied that this uses
steely what was stated two years aro by the
pr prietors of the Oxford-road Twist Mills, and many other
oott n factories, the chimneys of which were now adduced
es models of what could be don't* effet t freedom from smoke.

Clerk said he was not anxious to all for payment. He
would rather the parties would try to abate the nuisance, and

in estbscuishing the fire, which broke out on Monday night,
upon the premiers belonging to Mr. George Freeman (late
Alderson and Co.), in Blenheim-street, Orford-street, a most
appalling discovery was made. On the men meeting a kind
et hunter room, parallel with the Inv floor leads, their at-
tention was directed to the remains of two or three persons
who had been burned to death. The heals of each ratty
were off, and it is en:ported that the bodies bad been used
