THE HIGH 'LEVEL RAILIVAA' AT THE :;.......-.ERPOOL
DOOKS.—AIrr -Shand, at the inauguration of the Garston
docks, on Tuesday last, said _—Liverpool was-endeavour-
jug to follow -the example of her younger rueighbour
(Garston) in regarl to the high le?el railway, and the only
stoppage to that system was the opposition of the East
Lancashire Railway. In every other respect he-might say
the Town Council of Liverpool, the Lancashire and York-
shire Railway Company, and the :Dock,Estate of Liver-
pool, had made the provision necessary for carrying out the
highlevel railway, which would give-such advantage in the
shipping of coal_- ; and he hoped,if any gentlemen be-
longing to the East Lancashire Railway Company were
present, they would endeavour, as soon _as puosible, to
remove the difficulty. (Cheers.)

Presided at the weekly °e°ti n Wednesday. A letter
was read from Mr. Listmer,e

house° surgeon, in answer to a
board had resolved that it w s desirable that the surgeon
should reside in the hospitals. Mr. Lister's reply

ue stated,
nefit to the patient. he was nok willing to comply with
the wishe thereof the guardians.—Mir, Miller was of opinion
that
ught to be some inquiry made by the lezisla-
ture into the working of the present poor laws, for he was
catisfied that from the way in which the law was now work-
iin,g. theY would be all paupers very soon, (Hear, hear.)
.. was conoinrr to that, as erery year the poor rates were
increasing, whilst pauperism was decreasing. He enforced
the necessity of themselves and other boards memorialising
..avernruent. He also advocated a national rate, as did
Mr. Jeffreys, who was of opinion that the whole of the
country should become one great parish, with one rate,
and the Queen at the bead.—Mr. Cleaver said he had
reason to believe that in the next session of parliament
an imPortant alteration in the poor law would be brought
before the le islature .--llr. Miller: Then I will waive
the matter.2on the 'suggestion of the Chairman, it was
agreed to get a copy of the bill now passing through par-
attet to provent i4troultzral interroenta.
