The fifth subject-enwas the appointment of
forty-one members of the council to carry into execution
the local act of 5 George IV. for the better regulation and
encouragement of pilots for the conducting of ships and
vessels into and out of the port of Liverpool, and the ap-
pointment of three members of the council as auditors
under the said act.
The forty•one following members were unanimously
appointed :—The Mayor, Messrs. Moon, Isaac Holmes,
Leigh, Gladstone, Moore, R. Houghton, jun., T. Holt,
W. Fawcett, Boyden, Chalmers, Hodgson, Ray, Bulley,
Bushell, Turner, Harbord, Griffith. G. H. Lawrence,
Henry Holmes, Lloyd, Boutflower, Kil'haw, Molyneux,
Sothern, Rigby, James Lawrence, Shaw, Prestcn, Blun-
dell, Glazebronk, John Holmes Barclay, Toulmin,

Lace, Shepherd, and Blackburn.
The three following gentlemen were unanimously ap-
pointed as auditors, under the said act, namely :—the
Mayor (in his individual capacity), Mr. Moon, and Mr.
Thornhill.
EMBANKMENT OF THE LEASOWES.
The sixth and last subject on the paper was the ap-
pointment of three commissioners under the local act of
10 George IV. for the embankment on the north-west
side of the Leasowes, in Wallasey and Great Meols, in
the county of Chester. The present commissioners were
Mr. Evans, Mr. Aikin, and Mr. Richard Houghton.
Mr. AIKIN proposed Sir Thomas Brancker in lieu of
himself.
Mr. LLOYD seconded the motion ; and, in doing so,
took occasion to observe that the embankment cost a
deal of money, besides involving the payment of a
portion
of the rate which came under the act. He thought Sir
Thomas Brancker would make an excellent commissioner.
Mr. ISAAC HOLMES said he bad been given to under-
stand, that the Birkenhead bill proposed some alterations
with respect to the embankment. He wished to ask the
Town-clerk whether the commissioners of Birkenhead
did not desire, by their bill, to exonerate the Council
altogether from the appointment of commissioners?
The TOWN-CLERK said he was not aware of any'hing
in the bill which would affect the appointment of com-
missioners for Wallasey.
Messrs. Brancker, Houghton, and Evans, were then
appointed ; and after
The MAYOR had wished all the members a happy new
year, the Council adjourned to eleven o'clock to-morrow.
The proceedings only lasted half an hour.
