the rig t which parties exercised between them at present
in respect to the stream.

GEORGE opposed the clause, which was negatived
without a division, notwithstanding that the " ayes" were

numerous
Mr. COBBETT said that the act was to extend and en-
close the rivers Irwell and Mersey at Warrington-Bridge,
and the tributaries of the rivers above the junction of the
rivers, the effect of which would be to place certain mill
owners at a cot siderahle disadvantage. He moved there-
fore that the words "above the junctions of the rivers"
should be struck out of clause 3.

VENTILATION OF SCHOOLS.
- - -

Mr JONES aitked the Vice President .4 the Council of
Education whether enl, and what steps had been taken
to remedy •he defective stare cf the ventila ion in the Go-
vernment School:, adverted t ) in the late report of the sane.
tart'' commissioners; and whither the attention of the right
hon. gent man had been called .0 the system of l‘lr Cooke
the engineer, of Spring-gardens, which had tam applied to
several public buildings, and amongst others the Colonnade
Instituti n, Clare-market.

Mr. LO ‘v E said tha Government took the greatest
pains with the ventilation of the schools they assisted in
building, and he did not think they wire in a defective
state. He was not awaie of the nature of Mr. Cooke's pro-
cess, but, the Government were always open to sugges-
tions on the matter.
UNION RELIEF AID BILL.

On the order that this bill, as amended, be considered,
Mr. PULLER moved—That it be reccrataitted for the
Purpose of moving clauses to tnable th- guardians of
uni ns to borrow money on the security of rates of parishes
within such unions.

Mr. HIBBERT thought that if the bill passed in its
present shape it would operate very harshly on many
semi-distressed unions. It was in districts, which were
burdeting on distress, which were opposed to the bill. He
hoped the house would nut carry uut the principle of a rate
in aid.
