SANITARY CONDITION OF LlVERPOOL.—Yesterday
the Liverpool Town Council unanimously resolved to in-
crease the salary of Dr. Trench, medical officer of health,
from £750 to £l,OOO per annum. The council also agreed
to give.£s,ooo towards the erection of an hospital for infec-
tious and contagious diseases. It was stated that the

likewise resolved to take the management of the scaveng-
ing and removal of refuse and night-soil into their own
