LANCASHIRE. 
A plan is in contemplation to bring water 
from Bootle fprings to Liverpoel, by virtue of 
the act granted to Sir Cleave Moore, in 1710. 
A fimilar attempt was made fome years ago, 
but failed, from the contraéted views of the 
managing proprietor. The prefent proprietors, 
‘who are well qualified to fupport the expence of 
fo confiderable an undertaking, are well filled 
in this particular branch of bufinefy, and are 
perions of very liberal principles, propofe to 
offer a certain portion of fhares to the cerpora- 
tion of Liverpool, or to private individuals; 
and alfo to authorize a committee to fix the 
price of water, grant leafes, appoint officers, 
é&c. Forty-one carts are at prefent employed 
to diftribute water in the northern parts of the 
town, which are not only infufficient to anfwer 
the purpofe, but are juftly confidered as no fall 
nuifance,
