of the act of parliament ; besides, it would appear that the
institution in question was in a better condition than any
of the other charities, and it 'was rather unfortunate that
it should have been fixed upon. There was another mo-
tion of Mr. Middleton's with respect to a similar grant
for the Southern and Toxteth Hospital. Both, however,
were withdrawn after what the chairman had stated. The
Chairman intimated that he thought the question ought
more properly to come before the Common Council, and
in that case it 'hould have his support. Some discussion
took place relative to the mode to be adopted in the ap-
pointment of a person to fill the situation of superintend-
ent at the dock warehouses, the sub-committee not being
yet in a condition to make a report on the sulAject. it
was understood that a notice of a motion would be given
that a committee of examination should be formed to make

Mr. Mackworth, resident engineer, who deposed that
the last two bodies found, Patrick Brady and John Offer-
ton, were found under the fourth arch of the viaduct, on
the Ashton side. Mr. Gee was the engineer. There had
been no alteration from the original contract. (The con-
tract and specification was then handed in and read by the
coroner.) The work had been done in conformity with
the terms of the contract, but he had several times to
complain of the stones not being true. The mortar
seemed to be of sufficient goodness.

had passed the third reading on Wednesday evening.
Nothing had occuged to render it necessary that the par-
liamentary committee should be called together. The
committee then proceeded to the consideration of finan-
cial matters, and adjourned shortly afterwards.

By Mr. Bagshaw, Solicitor to the Company.—There
were four stones larger than the specifications.

By Mr. Wilcox (on the part of the Messrs. Fowler).—
There had not been sufficient truth in the stories, and he
stopped the works until they were made right, but does
think that the work was equally strong, or might be
stronger, but not so good masonry.
Mr. S. Holune. of Liverpool, stated that he had re.
ceived an order from the coroner, in conjunction with Mr.
Belhouse and Mr. Lee, of Manchester, to make an exa-
mination of the ground and works where the accident oc-
curred, with the view to find out the cause of it. They
had made a most careful inspection, and agreed in a re-
port, which he would read. He begged to state that Mr.
Mackworth had afforded them every facility, not only for
inspectivg the works, but also for examining the contracts
and specifications. After describing the contracts and
specifications, as to the nature and quality of the work re-
quired, the report states, in reference to the " examina-
tion of the ruin.," that, " on descending to the abutment
on the Duckinfield side, we first examined the stone
springers, which we found correct and undisturbed. We
then had a portion of the barking removed, which we
