the ruins fell on Mr. Phillips employed in 
the fervice of Mr. Fofter, and that he was fo 
Greadfull crufhed, that he died in the fpace 
ofa few haurs. “; he mof beneficial effeéts 
‘Were produced from the abundance of water 
which the iprings of Bootle water-works 
yielded, in arrefting the dreadful conflagration. 
Greatly to be defired is the completion of 
thofe immenfe referyoirs now confru@ting in 
the yard of the company of proprietors, on 
the onghalt: road) as thefe works, from their 
height, would have commanded thofe tower- 
ing warehoufes, that were deftroyed without 
even the refiftance of an engine. The fire- 
engines were likewife 1! iberally fupplied with 
water from the pipes belonging to the corpo- 
¥ation water-works The value of the pro- 
perty deftroyed has been varioufly eftimated 3; 
but, according toa medium computation, may 
be itated thus :—The buildings, 52,0001 .— 
Sugar, $1,000].—-Cotton, 26,000) —Coffce,

The Bootle {prings, near two thoufand of 
which concentrate, as it were, at one point, 
xife upon the effate of Lord Derby, and are 
fituated upon a hill in the village of Bootle, 
‘three miles north of Liverpool, wh ther they 
have. been brought by great perieverance and 
expence, and uncommon exertions ; fo that 
the inhabitants at prefent daily experience 
the comforts of abundance of fre water, 
without having recourfe to the flovenly and 
expenfive mode of water-carts. The immenfe 
relervoir conftruéting, and nearly finifhed, at 
the entrance of Liverpool, is intended to re. 
ceive a fufficient quantity of water to coun- 
teract, atany future period, fo dreadful a ca- 
Paty as hath recently vifited its inhabitants; 
to fupply the fhipping, and guard againgt dif- 
appointment to the inhabitants, as in cafe of 
accident to the long train of pipes, this refer- 
ryoir wili be capable of containing near 4000 
tons of water ; it has five compartments, or 
stories, each containing immenfe quantities ; 
the attic ftory is now completing, which is 
forty-five feet high, in order to command the 
higheft part of: the town They have been 
proved by ungueftionable authority to yield 
two hundred yallons a minute, a quantity 
fully competent to fupply the whole town of 
Liyerpo: 1, andthe fhipping reforting thereto.
