of Captain Devey's judgment, and a justification of the pro-
priety of his conduct. Shortly after her arrival, the vessel,
quite a new one, was put into the graving-dock, and has been
completely overhauled. The leak was found to be of the most
trifling description, and was easily repaired by a slight caulk-
ing. She is now on the berth loading for her next voyage to
the Antipodes, for which she will take her depart-are on the
20th instant; and; competent authorities here state broadly,
that itcarried into Pernambuco and beached, she must infal-
libly have been ruined by the straining to which a-ship of her
length and tonnage would inevitably have been exposed.
Such was the nature of the case relied on by Captain Dewey
in demanding an investigation into his conduct on the trying
occasion.
His application having teen Irly laid before the Board of
Trade, the investigation he demanded was at once complied
with, and the inquiry was accordingly proceeded with, the first
witness called being Captain Percy, who was under examina-
tion for nearly three hours. In the course of his testimony he
reiterated the leading points stated in the preceding abridg-
ment of the case. Mr. John Napier and Mr. Faugg, both
passengers on board the Mermaid, were next examined, and
they, in the main features of their testimony, bore out the
evidence of Captain Devey. They also stated that they; in
common with the majority of the passengers, were satisfied
with the entire prudence and management of Captain Devey,
who never for a moment seemed to entertain any doubt as to
the seaworthiness of the ship. Indeed, they had the most
thorough confidence in.his judgment and seamanship.
At the close of this evidence, it being now six o'clock, the
further hearing of the case was adjourned. till

PREVALENCE OF INEBRIETY.
To the wholesome labour and activity that now prevail, as
well as to the fineness of the weather, the healthy condition of
the army is doubtless due. It certainly is not attributable to
sobriety and abstinence, for I regret to say that drunkenness is
very prevalent among the men. The well-intended kindness of
the Queen's sixpence" is doing, I fear, much harm, used as it
is by a very large portion of the soldiers as a means of exces-
sive drinking. The consequence of this, and of the insubor-
dination and many offences it leads to, is a large amount of
punishment of various kinds—extra guards, stone-carrying,
and flogging. The cartwheel (here substituted for the
triangle) is frequently rigged, and the Provost-Marshal and
his assistants have plenty on their hands ; but twenty-five
lashes, or even fifty are all insufficient to wean the British
soldier from his favourite vice. I hear of regiments in which
there are literally scores of men under punishment of one
sort or other for intoxication. One regiment was cited to me
(I refrain from naming it) in which there were 60 offenders of
this sort at one time. In another nine sergeants were broken
for drunkenness. On Saturday -there was an issue of back
pay (the extra sixpence), and I never witnessed a more dis-
graceful scene than was presented by the part of the camp in
which I happened to be at about an hour before sunset on
Sunday afternoon. I have uo reason to believe that it was
confined to that part of the camp, but I mention only that
which I and a military friend who accompanied me actually
saw, as we leant against a railing enjoying the beauty of the
evening. Half the men who passed along a track a little in
our front were more or less intoxicated. Some were merely
unsteady, others staggered and straggled out of the path.
Some were pugnacious, and we saw two fights begin, which
were only put an end to by the arrival of a patrol. None
more than myself would advocate every reasonable indulgence
to an army which has deserved so well of its country as that
of the Crimea, displaying, as it has done, on repeated occa-
sions, and for long periods, the utmost valour, fortitude, and
patience. But if means are not found of checking the great
drunkenness that at present goes on here, the result will be
a grievous scandal to the service.
PROMOTION OF COLONEL WINDHAM.
Last night's general orders contained full confirmation of
news that had reached us a few days previously—namely, the
promotion of Colonel Windham to the rank of Major-General
" for distinguished services in the field," and his appointment
to the command of the Fourth Division, with which he served
as Assistant-Quartermaster-General until he was named (less
than two months ago) to the command of that brigade of the
Second Division, at the head of which he fought so gallantly
on the Bth of September. The fiat of the Horse Guards is, in
this instance, stamped and confirmed by the approbation and
applause of the army.
Lord William Paulet has assumed the command of the 2nd
brigade of the Fourth Division, and occupies Gen. Bentinck's
old quarters on Cathcart's-hill, where, unlike their previous
tenant, he may quietly dwell, without risk of a cannon-ball
plumping into his soup-tureen, or tumbling into his bed.

LATEST NEWS.
THE WAR.
The .21foniteur of Sunday publishes the subjoined
tele-
graphic despatch from Marshal Pelissier to the. Minister of
War :
SEBASTOPOL, Nov. 2,
On the 27th of October General d'Allonville, vvith 24 bat-
talions, 8 squadrons, and 56 pieces of artillery, advanced on
the road from Eupatoria to Simpheropol, as far as the ravine
of Tchobatar.
He found the Russians firmly established on the opposite
side of this ravine, where they have thrown up an entrench.
ment defended by 36 guns, all 32-pounders. Some shots fired
from them at long range reached our rank and struck down
several men and horses.
Every attempt made to draw the enemy out of this strong
position and bring them to an engagement proved unsuc-
cessful.
Ten Russian squadrons fell back before four Turkish
squadrons which General d'Allonville sent forward against
them.
On the following day the same manoeuvres were repeated
with no greater result.
The scarcity of water after passing Sak, and, the difficulty
of supplying the troops with forage, determined the General
to return on the 29th to Eupatoria.
The environs of Eupatoria for a considerable distance have
been totally abandoned by the Russians.
The Emperor, to show his esteem of the glorious part taken
by General Bosquet in the great events of the war in the
Crimea, has sent Captain 31orand, Officer d:Ordonnance, to
meet the General at Marseilles and present him w ith th
military medal.

monarch' of the plain. Imperfect and hurried as this
account is, I trust it may afford you some amusement.
With Cumming; I confess myself better able to
handle the rifle than wield the pen.' "
VARIETIES.
As daylight can be seen through small holes, so do
little things show a person's character.—Drew.
A WOMAN may always judge of the estimation it
which she is held by the conversation which is ad.
dressed to her.
THE WORLD is a hospital—be kind, humble, and
patient •itis a masquerade—be prudent ;itis a battle
field—be bold.
THE MEDIUM TRUE.---Neither he who incessan
hunts after the new, nor who fondly doats on the ow,
is just.---Lavater.
WHY is a man who keeps his eyes shut like an
illiterate school-master ?---Because he keeps his pupils
in darkness.
THE ARMY.—Though a soldier, in time of peace, is
like a chimney in summer, yet what wise man would
pluck down his chimney, because his almanack tells
him 'tis the middle of June.
THEY that deny a God destroy man's nobility ; for
certainly man is not of kin to the beast by his body;
and if he be not of kin to God by his spirit, he is a base
and ignoble creeture.—Bacon.
WHO are the saints of humanity ? Those whom
perpetual habits of goodness and of grandeur have
made nearly unconscious that what they do is good
or grand,—heroes with infantine simplicity.—Lavater.
MODESTY is a thin transparent veil which shows
with superior lustre the graces it would seem to cover,
as the new blown rose is more beautiful when its
leaves are a little folded than when its glories are fully
developed.
" I was not aware that you knew him," said Tom
Smith to an Irish friend the other day. " Knew him !"
exclaimed he, in a tone that comprehended the know-
ledge of more than one lifetime, " I knew him when
his father was a boy!"
IT seems to me a great truth that human things
cannot stand on selfishness, mechanical utilities, econo-
mics, and law courts ; that if there be not a religious
element in the relations of men, such relations are
miserable, and doomed to ruin.—Carlyle.
FlCHTE.—Fichte's popularity was (at one time) so
great, or the interest in metaphysical speculations so
intense, that the booksellers paid him six Louis d'ors
a sheet, while Goethe received only five, at the same
time, for his most admired works.—Life of _Richter.
CRA3IP.—Those who may be subject in the night-
time to that excruciating pain called cramp, will be
doubtless glad to learn that by tying, any kind of
bandage very tight round the leg, immediately above
the knee, this unpleasant sensation will be instanta-
neously removed.
AGREEABLE TRANSFORMATION.—On the abdication
of Bonaparte, in 1814, it was stated in a fashionable
party at Paris, that everything was to be restored to
the same state as in 1788, " Oh, lam delighted to
hear that," exclaimed a lady who had passed the bloom
of youth ; " for then I shall be only eighteen years
of age."
REST upon God's truth and faithfulness for the
making good of all those gracious promises that He
hath made in His Word concerning thy temporal pro-
vision and preservation for the future. There is no
want of power in Him that He should not be as big
as His word : there is no want of love in Him, that
He should not be as good as His word.—Bishop
Sanderson.
RADICALISM.—In one of Hogarth's pictures, there
is a man sitting astride a projecting sign of the Crown,
sawing away at it, and seemingly quite unconscious
that when he succeeded in sawing it down, he would
infallibly come down himself. The great moral painter
intended to symbolise here, those egregious fools who
have not wit enough to-see the danger to themselves
of their own political acts.
JOY.—Laugh on, never mind the censure of cynics.
Joy is one of the greatest panaceas of life. It braces
the nerves, makes the heart dance to pleasant music,

CHESHIRE AN]) WALES.
Timm has just been landed, at the Birkenhead Docks, a
log of mahogany weighing 6 tons 18 cwt. This large log was
brought in the ship Agenoria, Capt. Jackson, and is now to be
seen in the Honduras Sheds, Birkenhead.
TEE treasurer of the Tranmere Free Evening School has
received 10s. from William Waring Perrey, Esq., awarded to
him by the Revising Barrister, for attending at Birkenhead,
to oppose a frivolous and vexatious objection to his vote for
South Cheshire.
ON Sunday evening, James Farrell, six years of age, who
lived with his mother in Oak-street, Birkenhead, was left in a
room for a short time by himself, and whilst amusing himself
by playing with some lighted paper his clothes caught fire,
and he was burnt so severely that he died next morning.
MR. J. B. SWEENEY, assistant-overseer of Birkenhead, has
been appointed by the Poor-law Guardians of Birmingham to
the situation of assistant-overseer of that town, at a salary of
£125 per annum. Mr. Sweeney was the successful candidate
out of a large'number of applicants.
ACCIDENT.—On Tuesday, as the train of the Birkenhead,
Lancashirerand Cheshire Junction Railway Company, which
leaves the Landing-stage at six p.m., emerged from the Bir-
kenhead tunnel, and was just quickening speed., the guard van
behind, together with a second-class carriage, were thrown
violently off the line, at the place of the " points. The train
was stopped with promptness, or the consequences might have
been serious, as there was a steep embankment close by.
CAUTION TO SEAMEN.—At the Birkenhead Police-court, on
Thursday, two Dutch seamen, named Caspar Johanus Baring
and Henrick Fanodaker, were charged with deserting from the
ship Sarah Neumann, lying in the Birkenhead docks. The
prisoners shipped about three weeks ago on board the above
vessel, which was bound for Calcutta. After being at sea a
short time, she had to return to port, owing to an injury to
her steering apparatus. On Tuesday they deserted from the
vessel, and shipped on the same day on board the ship Kings-
ton, from which vessel, after receiving advance notes, they ab-
sconded. They were sent to gaol for three months, with hard
labour.
COAL ROBBERIES.—At the Birkenhead Police-court, on
Thursday, several Irish boys and girls were charged with
stealing coals from the waggons on the dock quays. One wit-
ness stated that not less than three or four tons of coal were
stolen by the prowlers who frequent the docks ; whilst another
witness gave it as his opinion that the quantity could not be
less than thirty tons a day. The principal part of the coals
were said to belong to Messrs. W. and H. Laird. Sir Edward
Cust said it would pay the coal proprietors well if they kept
men to protect their property. The Rev. R. M. Fielden re-
marked that if coals to the extent of thirty tons a day were
stolen, half the people of Birkenhead must be engagad in
plundering. The prisoners were summarily disposed of;
ILLEGAL WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.—The following per-
sons were summoned at the instance of Mr. Joseph Griffith,
inspector, for having in their possession illegal weights and
measures :—Joseph Carlisle, Claughton, for using a'piece of
brick instead of a weight, and two deficient weights, was
fined 3s. 6d. and costs ; James Baxter, baker and provision
dealer, Tranmere, for having two s ho rt weights, fined 7s. 6d.
and costs ; Abraham Mallinson, grocer, Neston, was sum-
moned for keeping a public weighing machine 561bs. against
the purchaser, and fined ss. and costs ; Samuel Morris, grocer
and provision dealer, Tranmere, was fined 4s. 6d. and costs
for having two deficient weights ; Peter Lloyd, grocer, Mar-
ket-cross, Birkenhead, for having two pair of fraudulent scales,
was fined 30s. and costs.
BIRKENHEAD CHURCH MISSIONARY SOCIETY.—On Tues-
day, the annual meeting of this society was held in the Ar-
gyle-rooms, the Rev. A. Knox, of St. Mary's, in the chair.
The chairman stated that their auxiliary had existed for
twenty-eight years, and that last year their subscriptions
amounted to £244 Is. 9d. Re then introduced the Rev.
Mr. Taylor,. who had been seventeen years a missionary in
New Zealand, and who gave a short history of missionary
proceedings in that country, since its discovery by Captain
Cooke. Mr. Taylor was accompanied by John Williams, a
converted New Zealand chief, who also addressed the meeting,
Mr. Taylor translating his words. The reverend chairman
solicited donations towards the restoration of Mr. Taylor's
church, which had been thrown down by the recent earth-
quake. £l5O was required for that purpose. The Rev. Henry
Carpenter subsequently addressed the meeting.
Cunrotrs WELSH Cusrom.—The registrar of the Br to
District Court of Bankruptcy (Mr. Charles Orme) has this
week been sitting at New Quay, Cardiganshire, taking the
examination of several witnesses in the matter of the bank-
ruptcy of Thomas Davies, shipbuilder, of that port. Most of
the witnesses were Welsh people, and the subject of the
inquiry being the extent of the bankrupt's interest in a cer-
tain vessel, some surprise was created by the witnesses speak-
ing of their shares in the vessel as a matter of weight. The
mystery was solved by the interpreter in this way : —A vessel
being about to be built is divided into 64 shares, the total
being=taken by the owners to represent a pound avoirdupois.
Thus, the owner of four 6iths is said to have an ounce ; two
64ths, half an ounce ; one 64th, a quarter of an ounce ; and so
in proportion.
Cauncrt ROBBERY.—A cripple, named Thomas Chambers,
was charged at the Birkenhead Police-court, ou Thursday,
with breaking into the old abbey chapel attached to St. Mary's
Church, and stealing an inkstand and several books. On
Wednesday morning, at four
_o' lock, the prisoner was stopped
Iby police-officer 12, n M laAi.cilisntorxeelt,r.and four books, one
it,teteoni;)inceirt,;ias found
having the name of the RevY
in his possession. Subsequently, detective
-bush where he
went to the house of a woman in Bevington-Bush,
found an inkstand which had been purchased from' the pri-
soner. The keeper of the old abbey chapel of Birkenhead
stated that the building had been entered on Monday night,
an entrance having been effected by a window which had been
broken. The prisoner was remanded for a week.
THE ROCK FERRY SLIP.—John Twaite,- collector at the
Rock Ferry slip, was sommoned at the instance of James
-Hanson, a boatman, for wilfully and maliciously damaging his
boat. The complainant was summoned on the previous
Thursday, by Messrs. Hetherington, for trespassing on the,
slip, but was then acquitted. On Monday,stwo gentlemen
wanted to go on board the American steamer Pacific. The
complainant's boat was lying at a short distance from the
pier, and the gentlemen hailed it. for the purpose of being put
on board the steamer. Hanson accordingly went close to the
slip, but did not touch it with his boat. The defendant then
got a boat-hook and ran it into the sides and sails of the com-
plainant's boat, doing damage to the amount of 255. Mr.
Gill, for the defence, urged that the slip was private property.
i and that the complainant had received notice not to come near
it with his boat. He then called evidence to show that no
more violence was used than was necessary to prevent the
complainant taking on board his boat the gentlemen who
wanted to go to the Pacific. The bench said they could not
decide as to the private right of the lessees of the ferry, and
therefore they could not say whether the damage was or was
not wilfully committ,3d. The summons was dismissed.
WALLASEY BOARD OF HEALTH.—At the meeting of this
board, on Thursday, Mr. Newlands, borough engineer of Li-
verpool, reported that it was necessary that the work com-
prised in contract No. 1, extending from Victoria-road, Sea-
combe, to No. 9, Beaufort-terrace, should be completed
according to the sections and as described in the specification.
It was recommended that Mr. Bugbird's tender for the con.'
struction of such work for £797 10s. be accepted, subject to
a deduction of £9O for old materials, and to give security in
£5OO for the performance of the work. It was ordered that
the names of the various streets in the township be painted
on a conspicuous part of each street, as recognised on the plan
of the district. Mr. Mann' after a few remarks, proposed the
following resolution :—" It appearing to the board highly de-
sirable and advantageous that the Wallasey Free School
-should be removed to another site, the board agrees to the
application of the trustees of the school for permission to
erect a new school, according to a design and plans now sub-
mitted and approved, on land, part of Wallasey-breck, under
the jurisdiction of the board, consisting of 740 yards or there-
abouts, in exchange for the land constituting the site of the
present school and appurtenant thereto, which is henceforth
to become and be the property of the board for the same pur-
poses as the land now agreed to be granted was previously
applicable." The resolution was agreed to. The salary of
Mr. Kerr, collector of the rates, was increased £2O per annum.

although apprised of the celebration by the Vice-Consul of
France, and by the Civil Intendant of Messina, did not com-
ply with the usage customary between friendly nations, and
did flat hoist the Neapolitan flag.
The Government of the Emperor having complained of this
want of courtesy, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of. the King-
dom of the Two Sicilies has, by order of his Sovereign, for-
warded to the Minister Plenipotentiary of His Imperial
Majesty at Naples a note, which happily concludes this dis-
agreeable incident.
The Neapolitan Government expresses its regret that the
Military Commandant of Messina should not have complied
with the intimation given him by the Civil Intendant ; and it
gives the assurance that formal instructions will prevent in
future, in all the ports of the Two Sicilies, the omission that
has occasioned the just complaints of the Government of the
Emperor.

THE WAR.
• OPERATIONS in the Crimea have now to a considerable
extent ceased to occupy the chief place in public estimation,
the allied forces, by sea and land, having directed the!r efforts
at different and distant points towards the -subjugation -of
. .
strongholds, and the defeat of objects vital in their import-
ance to the successful resistance -of the Russians. These
operations have not only withdrawn the observation of the
public from that close attention to the proceedings at head-
quarters, which they have hitherto received, but have in.point
of fact tended in a great degree to prevent the necessity of auy
very marked alteration in the position and movements Of the
Allies in Sebastopol and the vicinity. Added to these con-
siderations, it must also be borne in mind, that such .opera-
Cons as are in reality determined on, depend in a very great
degree upon the secrecy with which they can be carried out,
for their value in effett. As a natural consequence of this
state of affairs, the communications forwarded by the -special
correspondents of the London journals are more filled with
details of comparatively trivial matters, and with speculations
concerning expeditions of which they have obviously little
knowledge, than with those thrilling narratives of stirring
events with which for many months past they so freely
abounded. Instead of the graphic narratives of well-qualified
spectators, the public is now dependent on the more circum-
spect, if less glowing, accounts of military and naval exploits
contained in the official despatches.
Notwithstanding these drawbacks, sufficient interest still
attaches to the condition and anticipated movements of -the
------- -- - -
army concentrated in the neighbourhood of the late scenes.of
eventful conflict, to render the morsels of intelligence commu-
nicated concerning them matters of interest. The corres-
pondent of the Times, writing on the 15th ult., from the
Fourth Division camp before Sebastopol, says :
A pleasanter spot for a camp, in such sunny and delightful'
weather as we at present enjoy, could hardly be found than
the slope beyond the village of Kamara, on which the High-
landers have pitched their tents, and whither materials for
huts have already been sent in large quantities. Great, never-
theless, was the satisfaction of that gallant Division—now so
long inactive—on learning two days ago that it was under '
orders to embark for Eupatoria. It was said the embarkation
would take place to-day, but it will hardly be until Wednes-
day. Transports are reported to be wanting, but that is im-
probable, for Balaclava harbour is crowded with shipping to
such an extent that vessels which arrived on Friday morning
still awaited admission yesterday. It takes a little time
to get the necessary land transport supplies, baggage, &e., on
board, especially when, as in this case, the troops are ordered
to take with them as much of their heavy baggage as they can.
From this we infer that they are probably to winter at Eupa-
toria, and not necessarily to be at present engaged in active
operations. On the other hand, the departure of the light
cavalry, under Lord George Paget, would lead us to believe
that fighting is meant. There can hardly be an intention of
keeping them at Eupatoria all the winter, since stables are
now erecting near Sautari, and on an island in the Sea of
Marmora, amply sufficient to receive the whole of our cavalry
and horse artillery, which, it has been positively stated, are to
be quartered there until spring. A large number of French
(12p00 or 15,000) are to embark at Kamiesch, where, accord-
ing to one report, the Highlanders are also to embark, as the
nearest port for Eupatoria. Expeditions are quite the fashion
of the moment, and, had we before us the prospect of two or
three months' fine weather, we should be bound to suppose
that an important combined operation was about to be entered
upon. But, judging from precedent and probability, two or
three weeks must close the campaign, At present the wea-
ther is all that could be desired. The sun, which in that
little kettle Balaklava harbour, is still oppressively hot, is
tempered on the heights by refreshing breezes; the ground is
everywhere dry—the atmosphere pure and healthy. Never
was our army, since its first landing, so free from disease as at
the present moment. But this second summer may any day
be brought to a close, and exchanged for a season of rain and
tempest. It will be unusual, not to say extraordinary, if such
be not the case early in November. Brief time, therefore,
remains for the expeditions to carry out their objects, what-
ever those may be. The five regiments of cavalry (4th and
13th Light Dragoons, 12th and 17th Lancers, and Carbineers),
the Highlanders, and the 12,000 French, are believed to be all
bound for Eupatoria, Captain Montague's company of Sap-
pers and Miners also goes.
PREPARATIONS FOR WINTERING.
The English army, convinced that it is to winter in its
present camp, has set seriously to work to guard itself from
the inclement weather from which it last year suffered so
grievously, and to make itself as comfortable as it can. Officers
and men are busy with domestic arrangements. Hutting and
roadmaking are the occupations of the hour, and rapid progress
is making with both. Strong wooden huts are springing up
on all sides, and here and there a solid stone dwelling is in
course of construction. There will be lots of chimneys smok-
ing this Christmas on the heights before Sebastopol, and,
doubtless, many a good dinner will be eaten on that day, and
many a glass emptied to those memories and hopes of home
which are almost the sole consolation for the many privations
that must be endured, even under the most favourable circum-
stances, by the dwellers in a camp. It is now pleasant to
contrast the sufferings of last winter—the cold, exposure,
famine, and want of clothing then endured—with the prospect
of plenty and almost of comfort during that which approaches,
and to observe the activity that prevails to make the most of
the ample means supplied. The necessary roads progress
rapidly towards completion. Drainage is not neglected, and,
indeed, it is a question whether it be not almost overdone.
Some of the ditches, dug along each side of roads, and around
stores, hospital huts, and other establishments, are of formidable
width and depth, and of a dark night are likely to prove
dangerous pitfalls to wanderers through the camp, especially
if they have been taking " just one more tumbler" in the
quarters of some hospitable friend. On the other hand, here,
where the rains are frequently torrents, during which the
water sweeps down the slopes in sheets and floods, deep drain-
age is essential if we are not to live in a quagmire, as we hitherto
have done as often as the weather has been wet.

CASTLE-STREET WARD,
This ward, which has always been considered "safe" by the
Radicals, has been most unexpectedly wrested from them this
year, the election having ousted Mr. Avison, the retiring mem-
ber, and chosen Mr. J. G. Livingston, a Conservative. From
the commencement of the voting, Mr. Livingston had a ma-
jority; but, increasing from hoar to hour, till the numbers at
the poll stood, for Mr. Livingston, 298 ; for Mr. Avison, 252 ;
leaving the former a clear majority of 48 votes.
Shortly after four o'clock, Mr. G. W. Moss; chairman of Mr.
Livingston's committee, announced, from a window of the
committee-room, at the Tiger Inn, Dale-street, the state of the
poll at the close to be 298 for Mr. Livingston, and 252 for Mr.
Avison.—Mr. Livingston then came forward, and said : I am
'told, gentlemen, that on these occasions it is not expected that
the candidate should make any formal declaration of his prin-
ciples, or, in fact, that he should do more than thank those of
his brother electors who have worked so earnestly and with
such zeal to place him in such a tremendous majority, I may
say, for this ward—/ hear, hear)—because I am told—and
there are men in this room who are cider than I am, who can
correct me if I am wrong—but I believe that since the passing
of the Municipal Bill, in 1835, this ward has never been repre-
sented except by men of extreme Radical principles. ( Hear.)
Some weeks ago, when I was about to leave Own, I did make
some endeavour to wrest this ward from the hands of the Ra-
dicals—( hear, hear)—and I then said to a gentleman, who is
now present,-"It is not my wish to go intothe Town Council ;
but I think every man should play his part when called upon,
and, if you .cannot find a candidate, my services are at your
disposal" ( Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, I will not detain you
longer, brat :I must individually thank those of my canvassers
who have worked so very hard, and who have placed me under
such very.great obligations to them. I hope, when I take my
seat in the council chamber, you will find that I am not un-
wortlrrof your support. I beg again to thank you most sin-
cerely 'for your kindness. ( Cheers.)

ST. GEORGE'S-STALL.-POPIILAR CONCERTS.
The proceedings of the St. George's-hall Committee were
confirmed. In reference to these it was stated that the com-
mittee intend in a short time 'to establish evening organ
concerts for the working classes, admission to whiCh would
be charged at the rate of 3d. each. The pecuniary results of
the sixpenny performances had been so successful, as to have
yielded on the Saturday RIO, while at the evening per-
formances on Monday the receipts had amounted to £7O.
The proceedings of. the Markets' Committee were passed
without comment, and also the Education Committee's minutes.
In course of discussion on the resolutions of the Gaol and
House of Correction Committee, Mr. .R.GLADSTONE denounced
in strong terms the system of solitary confinement adopted
at the new Borough Gaol; a system which Mr. G. HOLT de-
fended, describing it rather as a separate than solitary system.
The reports of the Health, Gardens, Church Expenditure,
and Water Committees were adopted. The latter contained
an account of the purchase of the Chorley works for £35,000.

REPORT OF TUE SPECIAL COMMITTEE ON TIIE GAS SUPPLY
The Special Committee appointed to inquire into the cir

arrived at in consideration of the evidence adduced

syes nti tanedde es

before them. The report commenced with a description of
the preliminary steps taken by the committee, and stated
that the attendance of the representatives of the Guardian
Society, as well as of the Gas Company, was requested. The
latter, however, after attending two meetings, withdrew from
the inquiry, in accordance with a resolution of the directors ;
and this the committee much regretted, as it deprived them
of the means of gaining much important information. The
committee bad directed their attention seriatim to the various
points embraced by the resolution of the Council.
The first was the state of the gas supply in the borough,
which included the charge made for gas ; the meters used by
consumers ; the quality of the gas ; and the loss occasioned by
the supply of gas in the suburban districts. 'With regard to
the charge now made for gas, the report states :—" It appears,
from the evidence of about forty consumers selected indis-
criminately, that, notwithstanding the reduction made in the
price of gas on the Ist of January last, from 4s. fid. to 4s. per
1,000 cubic feet (rather more than 11 per cent.), the bills
delivered by the -Gas Company, and actually paid by those
consumers, were larger in amount than the bills for the cor-
responding period in prevhius years; this increase varying
• from 10 to 50 per cent., and this although no additional gas
had been consumed by them. That in some instances con-
sumers had been charged for more gas than the_quantitY•indi-
cated by their meters, the quantity
_being ascertained (as
stated in the bills) by `computation' on the consumption of
previous periods, and in more than one instance consumers
had been charged for gas by ' computation' where no gas
whatever had been used on their premises." The meters (the
report proceeds) are " wet" meters, whose accuracy depends in
a great measure upon their being fixed at an accurate level.
The adjustment of these meters, which are manufactured and
supplied by the Gas Company, has been much neglected by
the company's servants, and the result of the examination by
Mr. Taunton, the inspector appointed by the Corporation of
London, was that only one or two, out of between 300 and
400 meters examined, were found correct. It appears, from
the evidence of Mr. Taunton and Mr. Clegg, that an over-
charge of water causes the meter to register more gas than
actually passes through it, and vice versa ; also that gas of
an inferior quality passes through the water with greater
rapidity than good gas; and Mr. Clegg, in a great measure,
attributes the increase of the gas bills since January last to
this fact.
With respect to the loss produced by the supply of gas to
the suburban districts, the committee have no doubt that the
supply of gas to the districts situate at a long distance from
the places of manufacture, even at the maximum price of
4s. Od. per 1,000 cubic feet, is not remunerative to the com-
pany, and entails upon the consumers nearer the places of
manufacture a very serious charge to counterbalance the loss
upon the supply of-distant districts, and to enable the com-
pany to derive, as they are legally entitled to, a dividend of
ten per cent. upon the capital expended in the extension of
their mains, and other works necessary for the supply of these
distant localities. According to the evidence of Mr. Clegg,
the quantity of gas lost through leakage, and otherwise by the
extension of the mains to those outlaying districts, amounts to
twice as much as the profits which the company make by the
supply of gas, which loss he calculates at 20 per cent. 'With
this evidence adduced before theni; the committee have arrived
at the conclusions—That, taking into consideration the over-
charges made from incorrect registration of meters, the price
of gas is far too high. That the meters in use are genttally
of imperfect construction and erroneus in their registration,
and that there has been gross neglect, and carelessness on the
part of the company and their servants with respect to the ex-
' amination and adjustment of meters ; and that, whether the
registration be more or less than the actual consumption, the
general body of consumers are most prejudicially affected by
such inaccuracy. That the quality and illuminating power of
the gas supplied is variable, and that the standard quality
prescribed by the act of Parliament is uncertain and inefficient.
That the supply of gas to the suburban districts entails a
serious charge to the consumers nearer the works ; and that
the principle of supplying both classes of consumers at the
same price is most-unjust, as admitted by the company, in the
distinction they made in the charge since the Ist January last,
and that separate accounts should be kept of the expenditure and
receipt in each of the townships or districts named in the act.
With regard to the reductions made in price, the committee
observe that the reductions which have been made from the
former price of 7s. per 1,000 cubic feet, to the present price of
43. per 1,000 cubic feet, were all made under pressure from
without, and threats of competition ; and that the consent of
Parliament to the amalgamation of the old companies was
based chiefly on the allegation that the cost of management
would be thereby reduced ; a result which has not, however,
been attained. The committee further remark that the capa-
bilities of the present company to supply the increasing
demand for gas depend entirely upon the amount of " capital
at the disposal of the company;" and they regret that, owing
to the refusal of the company to permit their officers to afford
any information, the only evidence they have received on this
subject is that of Mr. Beloe, the accountant appointed by the
Recorder, under the act of Parliament, whose information is
derived solely from his official annual examination of the
accounts. It appears, from Mr. Beloe's statement, on the 30th
June, 1854, that the capital raised by the company was—
Amount paying dividend at 10 per cent...£469,414 5 8
Amount received as premium 100,783 0 0
Borrowed on bond
Of which had been expended
631,591 5 8
626,245 15 5
Leaving a balance unexpended of ......... £5,351 10 3
This being the state of the capital account, the committee con-
clude that the company are capable of supplying the increas-
ing demand for gas. It is stated by Mr. Clegg, as the result
of a most careful and elaborate calculation, that works capa-
ble of supplying the present and future demand for gas, in-
cluding mains, &c.,- could he constructed for £300,000, and
that the outlay of this amount would enable a company to
supply gas, of a quality superior to that now used, at 3s. 6d.
per 1,000 cubic feet, and pay a dividend of 10 per cent. on the
outlay.
The report next alludes to the system of management and
its cost, and states that the supervision over the company pre-
scribed by the act, and vested in the auditor, is very insuffi-
cient, and that an inspecting engineer and auditor to examine
the works and accounts, on the part of the consumers, would
be valuable and necessary. From the evidence, the committee
conclude that the management of the. company, so far as
respects meters,. fittings, &c., is very unsatisfactory, and that
the charges made for men's wages in " fittings " is universally
complained of. The principle of the Gas Company being the
manufacturers of meters and the sellers of' gas, without con-
trol, is denounced in the report as unfair. After contrasting
the gross income of the company from 1849t0 1854 with the
cost of manufacture in those years, and showing that while
the latter, from 184 to 1853, had only increased £5,000, the
revenue had increased £27,000, the committee account for
this by adoptinc, Mr.. Clegg's opinion, that the•quality of the
gas materially affects the registration of the meter—the more
inferior the quality of the gas, the greater the velocity with
which it flows through the same openhigs in the meter. The
expense and inconvenience to the public by the breaking up of
the streets is lightly dwelt upon, its cost being something less
than id. per thousand. cubic feet of gas consumed. The re-
port then details the recommendations which appear to the
committee most adapted. to insure, for the future, the best and
cheapest supply of gas. As the present company is a mono-
poly, with personal interest paramount in the management of
the estate, the committee see no grounds for relying on the
company for any amelioration of the present condition of
things, and much less for the continued exertion necessary to
meet the growing wants of the community. Having regard,
howevre, to the vested rights of the proprietors, they would
feel disposed rather to tecommend an arrangement by which
the management of the ,business of the company should be
transferred to hands who were-identified with the public, than
that a competing company should be supported by the coun-
cil. They incorporated in their report a suggestion that the
share property of the company should be converted into bonds,
carrying a certain interest, and that the control of the company
shouldpass into the hands of a board of nine directors, three
of whom to be appointed by• the council, three by the con-
sumers, and three by the bondholders. With the general
principle of this suggestion the committee are disposed to
agree, and recommend that the- council re-appoint the com-
mittee, with instructions to confer with the company on the
subject; and if it be found that the company is not disposed
to agree to a transfer, or, agreeing thereto, that they propose
terms which are unjust and unreasonable, then your committee
would recommend that the council erect works of its own, or
give its sanction and active co-operation to any new company
which may be formed for supplying the borough of Liverpool
with gas, as the only mode by which the interests of the pub-
lic can be properly protected. As. immediate measures, how-
ever, the committee suggest that the company should be called
upon—
lst.—To make an immediate reduction in the price of gas.
2nd.—To discontinue the manufacture of meters and the
sale of chandeliers and similar fittings.
3rd.—To consent to the appointment of an inspecting engi-
neer, on behalf the consumers, to. be responsible to the coun-
cil, with full powers of access to all departments of the works,
and with instructions to report. thereon periodically ; and,
4th.—To the appointment of offibers, 'also responsible to the
Council, to examine and adjust the meters on behalf of the
consumers, and to.test andrfrom time to time report on the
quality of the gas, the pressure at which it is supplied, and on
. other points necessary to insure protection'to the consumers.
.Mr. KITCHEN moved the adoption of the report, comment-
ing upon its principal features, but making no new statement
.of importance.
Mr. &HEIL seconded the motion.
Mr. Alderman S. HOLAIE, who-viewed the report as a mere
ex parte statement, and was anxious that the Gas Company
should have an opportunity of replying to charges so serious,
moved, as an amendment, that the report be received and
printed, and that a copy be sent to each member of the Coun-
cil, and also to the Gas Company,. and that the report be taken
into consideration at some subsequent meeting of the Council,
together with such reply as the Gas Company may make.
Mr. Alderman BENNETT seconded the amendment.
Mr. GLADSTONE much regretted that the Gas Company bad
withdrawn from the inquiry, and- hoped they would reconsider
that step, as there was a feeling-out of doors which it would.
be impossible to quell without some satisfactory explanation.
Mr. HoENBY thought with Mr. Holme that they would not
be acting fairly by the accused if they decided without waiting
their reply; and the Council would not even be in a position
to decide without having the. opportunity of considering and
digesting the report. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. CLINT (one of the special committee), though he had
no objection to Mr. Holme.,s.amendment, denied that the state-
ments were ex parte. They were borne out by the fullest
and clearest evidence.
Mr. BRADLEY was of the same opinion.
After a few words from Mr. Bennett, Mr. KITCHEN. replied,
and, as he had no objection to adopt the amendment of Mr.
Holme, the Council agreed to it.
THE BIRKENHEAD DOCK WORKS AND CHESHIRE
A:IALGAMA.TION.
The following report was submitted to the Council from the
special committee appointed to consider the subject of the
transfer to the Corporation of the docks and property of the
Birkenhead Dock Company, viz. :—That the purchase of the
north reserve has been completed, and your committee submit
to the Council the plans submitted by Mr. John B. Hartley, for
dock works at Birkenhead, together with a resolution of the

act of last session.
With reference to the proposed amalgamation of Birkenhead
and Claughton, and the district of the Wallasey Board of
Health, with the borough, your committee report that they
have had interviews With gentlemen representing those places ;
and, although the details in respect of such amalgamation will
require careful consideration and adjustment, your committee
recommend that notices should be given of a bill to effect
these objects, the clauses of that bill being subject to the
approval of the Council.
A communication was received by your committee from
several of the principal landowners in the township of Tran-
mere, suggesting the addition of that township to the borough.
But a public meeting of the ratepayers has since been held,
and resolutions adopted objecting thereto ; and your com-
mittee have, therefore, abstained from further considering the
desirableness of such arrangement until the parties more hn-
mediately connected with the township have arrived at a
general agreement on the subject.
Your committee have also conferred with the Health Com-
mittee on the subject of the borough boundaries on the Lan-
cashire side, and have received from that committee the
resolution and report appended thereto.
Reference to the plan mentioned in that report will show
that the proposed additions to the borough are very extensive,
and time has not admitted of the full consideration of so large
a question. As, however, if any alteration of the existing
boundaries involves an application to Parliament in the next
session, and the publication during three weeks in November
of notices of the intention to make such application, the.
Health Committee recommend the publication of such notice,
reserving for further and mature consideration the principle
of such additions, and all the details involved therein. Your
committee must leave the decision of so important a matter
to the Council, not being prepared, with the limited informa-
tion they now possess, to recognise, even by the publication
of a notice, the principle of so large an► addition to the borough,
although they are of opinion that it is necessary to settle and
define accurately the existing boundaries.
JOHN STEWART.
Mr. HORNBY, as chairman of the committee on the Birken-
head Docks, moved the adoption of the report, which pledged
the council to nothing except the preparation of the bills re-
quired for carrying out the objects described. The cost of
the new works which had been approved by the Dock Com-
mittee, was £715,000. This expense, large as it was, was im-
posed upon them by an act of Parliament ; and in the event
of not preparing plans of their own, they must carry out those
of Mr. Bendel for the completion of the Birkenhead Docks.
With regard to the question of adding Birkenhead to Liver-
pool, all they asked now was that they should be authorized to
prepare a plan, and submit it to the Council hereafter. He
thought that it would be better to define accurately and en-
large the boundary of the borough ; but he could not go so far
as the Health Committee advised, as he doubted whether those
districts which the Health Committee proposed to be added
to the borough were at all prepared to become parties to such
a plan.
Mr. J. B. LLOYD seconded the motion.
Mr. DOVER moved, as an amendment, that the recom-
mendations included in the Health Committee's report be
acted upon by Parliamentary notices being given. Of course,
ou the understanding, that beyond giving of the notices, no
action will be taken for the present.
Mr. Jonxsow seconded the amendment.

FROM OUR LONLJN CORRESPONDENT.
MONDAY MORNING.
"WE live in strange times," is an exclamation which has
rung in the human ear, if not exactly since the existence of
those halcyon days when " ADA:2I: delved and EVE span," cer-
tainly from a period long antecedent to" the 'memory of that
fabled phoenix " the oldest inhabitant," and stretching back
into the midst of those remote revels, whereat the Muse of
History has been rendered unsteady by imbibing too largely
of the Lethean potations of tradition. Each repetition of the
oracular sound claims for itself, on comparison with its prede-
cessors, the peculiar merit of being not merely the latest effort
but the best entitled to "wake the slumbering echoes," and
receive the attention of an apathetic auditory. The most
recent provocative of the oft-repeated adage, was that which
on Tuesday last received its impulse in the Great Park at
Windsor, when and where numerous oxen, fed under the
special eye and authority of the Commissioners of HER
MAJESTY'S Land Revenue, were exposed for sale. That oxen
should become obese while roaming "at sweet will" among the
luxurious pastures of the Royal demesne, is no matter of won-
derment. Many a harmless drone has long ere this period
waxed fat amidst those secluded shades ; the remarkable
feature of the case being that the Commissioners of HER
MAJESTY'S Land Revenue should become bucolic, and turn their
attention to the fatting of beeves. So it hath come to pass,
however, and the first sale of oxen fed under their august aus-
pices took place in the Great Park on Tuesday last. The state
of the weather was unfavourable, but the novelty was great,
and the Great Babylon of modern days poured forth her nu-
merous connoisseurs of bovine symmetry and obeseness to
inspect and pass judgment on the success of the great experi-
ment which was to convert a state department into a com-
munity of graziers. It was pronounced successful in all
respects; and judging from one important criterion, the
money test, HER MAJESTY'S most honourable board of Land
Commissioners arc entitled to the credit which attaches to
successful "feeding." The stock exposed consisted of seventy-
three superior horned Scotch oxen, "rising five" as the stock
catalogue phrases them, eighteen of which were fit for the
butcher. These seventy-three beasts realized the large sum of
£1,250. After this display, who shall declare in his place in
Parliament or elsewhere, that " the right men have not got
into the right place," in the Land Revenue Commission ?
Such thrift pervading this great department will in all proba-
bility stimulate it in others ; notwithstanding the cogency of
such an expectation, there are not wanting those who whisper
in reference to this as well as other popular displays of public
economy, "all is not gold that glitters," and, in the homely
phraseology of the great Pennsylvanian printer, it is suspected
that in this instance the Commissioners may have "paid too
dear for their whistle."
From one branch of the public administration to another
the transition is easy at all times, -if not in every instance
natural ; and from the great park at Windsor the step, on
paper at all events, is but a trivial one, which lands us in the
Home-office. Here we at once come upon proceedings of a
different character ; and to some it may appear more in
keeping with official dignity than entering the competitive
lists with successful exhibitors at cattle-shows. It must be
fresh in the recollection of all HER MAJESTY'S well-disposed
subjects, that a week or two ago three revolutionary propa-
gandists, who, after issuing a printed address, counselling
assassination as a means of politically regenerating Europe,
and publishing an insulting letter addressed to the QUEEN,
were indignantly spurned from the island of Jersey. Equally
vivid must also be the recollection that, after their ignomi-
nious expulsion from that asylum, thirty-five of their coad-
jutors and admiring associates prepared, and signed, and pro-
mulgated, an audacious declaration in relation to that event.
In this declaration these abettors of murder and admirers of
assassination—among whom are included the " famous
romancer," VICTOR HUGO, and his sons—not only justified
the audacious letter, but, in the strongest terms their some-
what emphatic vocabulary could furnish, they denounced the
people of Jersey, reviled the English Government, and defied,
while they traduced, the EMPEROR of the FRENCH, conclud-
ing their doughty rigmarole with the insolent and sneering
adjuration—" Now, banish us !" The document having been
brought under the notice of HER MAJESTY'S vigilant Home-
Secretary, he, after a slight season of dozing, took the
haughty refugees at their word, and issued peremptory orders
for their extrusion from the island. This order has been
enforced, and, mirabile, the ringleaders, if not the whole fra-
ternity, of the revolutionary exodus, have squatted down upon
their injured honour, to assuage their outraged sensibilities
in the adjacent island of Guernsey. Whether, in this new
retreat, they will again so deport themselves as to call forth
once more the remonstrances of these loyal islanders, whom
they have constituted their involuntary hosts, it is, of course,
iMpossible to say ; but if they do, even the somnolency of
Downing-street will scarcely be a sufficient aegis to shield
them from the just resentment of the British people, long-
suffering though they are in extending the imaginary rights
of national hospitality.
The past week has been one fertile in topics for grave dis-
cussion in the clubs. Ministerial shifts—l had nearly written
dodges—and quasi official rumours of different kinds have
kept the " button-holders" of the club•saloons in a state of
active mental oscillation. Combined with these have been out-
spoken declarations, and more alarming and portentous
because less understood inuendoes relative to our state of
amicable arrangements with those " tarnation smart" poli-
ticians who rule the roast in Yankee-land. Any, or all, of these
subjects, taken seriatuni, would have formed admirable topics
for consideration, and might not have proved too heavy for the
stomachs of those political epicures, the delicacy of whose
organization is overwhelmed by such un emb&rras des richesses.
The Cabinet vacancy, occasioned by the death of SirWiLmam
MOLESWOR.TII, has, for the last few days, been quite as great a
difficulty with the club distributors of office as it is said to have
proved in higher quarters; Among the leading luminaries
of the ministerial system Lord JOHN RUSSEL has been spoken
of, but he is still reckoned so erratic a political comet, that his
influence is dreaded within the perturbed sphere of Cabinet
action ; and as a prevailing opinion exists in the ministerial
mind that both his lordship and the PREMIER are charged with
negative electricity, generated by the rubs and buffets they
have mutually given and sustained, any attempt to bring them
together must prove abortive, without the intervention of a
positive, (goose ?) who would, of course, inevitably perish in
the explosive adjustment of the volatile fluid. The name of
Lord ELGIN has been mentioned, apparently by some one
deeply read in the " Art oflngeniously Tormenting." His lord-
ship's known performances in the colonial line being so an-
tagonistic to the club notions of a colonial secretary,
that they cannot see the chance of administrative co-
operation between him and those at present located in
the easy-chairs of Downing-street, while his qualifications
for any other Ministerial position are so remote that
no club lorgnette of sufficient power has yet been discovered to
bring them and possession into the field of view at the same
time. In desperation, Mr. LOWE has been spoken of, but his
Australian reminiscences are presumed to be of too recent, and
his displays connected therewith of too dazzling a lustre to
make that a safe or practical game. The Duchy of Lancaster
has been once more alluded to as a budding-bed whence a
recently-struck statesman might be transplanted with advan-
tage, and the Earl of HARROWBY, who, while representing
Liverpool, must necessarily have acquired some commercial
knowledge of colonial matters, is by more than one of the Club
oracles pointed to as the " coming man" who is to wield colo-
nial sway. This rumour connects itself also with a singular
letter penned by Lord STANLEY to Sir W. JONES, as chairman
of an educational meeting, and read by Capt. TOWNSHEND in
that capacity at Fakenham on Thursday evening. The Del-
phic oracles of old are supposed to have derived their chief
value from the great number of plausible interpretations
which could be readily put upon them ; and the Sibyline books
to have owed their principal virtue to the fact that while a
considerable cumber of them were destroyed, the remainder
continued of undiminshed value. Lord STANLEY, it is under-
stood, has been of late improving his mird by oriental travel,
and whether he has discovered the recipe for concocting oracles
which shall express any meaning the listener chooses to at-
tach to them, or has accidentally stumbled upon the rule for
compounding Sibyline books, it is no easy matter to conjecture.
bid if the note in question be an average specimen of his let-
ter-writing, the sublime art of mystifcation seems in a fair
way of showing a spirited revival in Lis hands. Every body
is familiar with the chapter of tll3 celebrated novelist,
entitled "An explanation in which nothing is explained."
Such is precisely the character of Lord STANLEY'S
letter. It - literally contains an infinite deal of nothing ; and
suppb.se the beginning, or the middb, or the end were taken
away from it, the remainder would still be of as much value
as the whole ! and that remainder g that whole would still
express any meaning the listener chose to put upon it. So
adroit a specimen of epistolary composition naturally arrested
the attention of the Times, and thrt adept in the science of
any or no meaning soon fitted the nissive with an interpre-
tation suited to its own views. Donring its conjuror's cap, and
assuming the most imposing of its sonorous tones, it thus
delivered itself in relation to the awful document : "We
believe it is not impossible that Lord STANLEY may become a
member of the present Government." Having contributed so
much to the general stock of infornation on so important a
point, the demonstrative Jurms, wrapping himself closely up
in his robe of mystery, retired to the highest pinnacle of his
political Olympus, whence he has not since deigned to look
out, leaving the wondering world 'a puzzled admiration of so
sage a commentary. Those who make less pretence, affirm
that some proposition has been made to Lord STANLEY in
relation to the Duchy of Lamaster ; and the Globe, the
official organ of the Government without committing itself to

GENERAL INTE.LLIGENCE.
MR. SMITH O'BRIEN has advertised a new book on politi-
cal subjects, the title being, " The Principles of Government;
or Meditations in Exile."
Tau PRESIDENT of the Poor-law Board has appointed Mr.
H. B. Cane, one of the chief clerks of the Poor-law Office, who
has been in the service of the commission from its commence-
ment, to succeed Mr. Austin as Poor-law Inspector.
JOHN WORFEY, miller, of Bromsgrove, has been fined £5
and costs, for having in his possession 6001bs. of alum, for the
Purpose of adulterating flour. The defence was that the alum
was used for mending holes in the millstones.
THE LADY SPORTSMAN.—It will be remembered that an
announcement appeared to the effect that the Game-list for the
county of Leicester contained the name of a lady as being en-
titled to kill game. This week the fair one has had her
" lovely fingers" shattered by the bursting of her gun.—
Leicester Paper.
THE BELGIAN GOVERNMENT, rather than interdict the
use of corn and potato starch in manufactures, which would be
to stop labour for the purpose of economising food, has offered
A prize of 10,000 francs for the discovery of a non-alimentary
substance to replace the use of starch in those industrial oc-
cupations in which it is now employed. -
A WOMAN, aged 115 years, has just died at Oravitza. She
had preserved her _vision almost unimpaired, and all her
teeth. Her husband, who died three years ago, had reached
the same age as herself, and both sank at last under the
burden of old age alone, for neither of them had ever
been ill.

PAUL, STBAIIAN3 AND BnEs.—lt is stated that these crimi-
nals will remain in IN.Tewgate or the Milbank Prison until a
complete investigation of Their affairs is made and a balance-
sheet in bankruptcy filed ; and that afterwards they will be re-
moved to Gibraltar for the remaining period of their sentence.
THE following is supposed to be the number of newspapers
in the world :-10 in Austria, 14 in Africa, 24 in Spain, 26 in
Portugal, 30 in Asia, 65 in Belgium, 85 in Denmark, 50 in
Russia and P6land, 350 in other Germanic States, 500 in
Great Britain and Ireland, and 2,000 in the railed States, or
nearly twice as many as in all other nations,—American Pub-
lishers' 'Circular.
THP ORDER OF TIIE SERA.PIini, the insignia of which
Xing Oscar has just sent to the Emperor Napoleon, is the
oldest and the most distinguished of 'the orders of Swedish-
knighthood. The escutcheon of each Swedish or foreign
)right %.emains for ever hung up in the Church of Beddarhelm,
.‘vhcre the tombs of the kings of Sweden are huilt, and the
,death of each knight of the Order is announced by the tolling
'of the large bell of that church.
A REAL rara avis—a black swan—was captured off Ea-
mouth last week. It was poor in flesh, and evidently ex-
hausted by long flight, but showed by its plumage and other
indications that it had never been in captivity. It is sup-
posed that by a long suecession of storms it has been driven
from the Pacific, its only known habitation. An equally rare
fish was caught at GraVesend on Friday, during the high wind
and tide—a sword fish of 7ft. cinches in length, and possess-
ing a sword of 2ft.'6in.
TEM Calrixtr. IffLANDS nmil packet brings intelligence
that the whole of the thirty-four refugees rho signed 'the
declaration protesting against the expulsion of the managers
of the L'Homme newspaper have been ordered to leave.aersey,
by order of the British government. Amongst the spelled
are Victor Pugo and his sons. The declaration referred to
contained the most nnmeasured abuse of the Emperor Napo-
leon, and expressed bitter contempt for England, cencluding
with the words, ." Now expel us, if you choOse."
PREPARATIONS.—The Government has entered
into extensive contracts for the supply of AtiniZ rifles, rifled
and VictorinTarbines, revolvers, and cavalry •( heavy and light)
sabres. The number of firearms of all il..scriptiens required is
upwards of 100,000 stand, and 10,000.sabres. Tile contracts
are diVided among the gun manufacturers•ol London and !lir-
mingham;Liege and Namur ( Belgium), and Boston ( United
States). sword cutlers of Sheffield have taken the con-
tract for sabres.
Anotir seventeen miles below Gainsborough, on the right
bank of the Trent, stands the pretty-secluded village of Bur-
ringham. The parish is without a church, and for some time
past.24lforts have been made to raise funds to erect one. The
following novel announcement, which -has been circulated in
Brigg, looks as if it had been quoted from the Tablet:—" For
the benefit of Burringham Churcb.—To be raffled for, at half-
pest, three o'clock, a pure bred Skye terrier dog, direct from the
island; twenty shares, at ss. each. Also, a pure bred terrier
puppy, four months old, same breed; twelve shares, at ss. each?,
MR. FEARGIIS O'CONNOR'S land -scheme was wound up last
'week, at Sheffield, before the commissioner appointed by the
master in chancery. 'The object the master in chancery has in
view is to ascertain how to apportion'the surplus assets of the
company equitably amongst all the accredited claimants. From
the company's accounts it appears 'that about £90,000 is the
whole amount which was subscribed, by about seventy thou-
sand persons. On the average,-above one-third of the claim-
ants have reappeared, and about-two-thirds of the amount sub-
scribed has been claimed.
ATTEMPTED MURDER.—On the 4th ult., Thomas Franks,
residing at Nottingham, made a desperate attack upon his
wife as she lay in bed, inflicting several dangerous wounds
with a razor. He afterwards absconded from the town, und,
though active efforts were 'made for his apprehension,
nothing was heard of him until Thursday evening last, when
information was sent to the police-station that he was pacing
to and fro in disguise in front of the house in which his wife
still lay suffering from his cruel assault. Two constables
were immediately despatched to •the spot, and succeeded in
apprehending.him, in all probability just in time to prevent
loss of life, for the man had a brace of loaded pistols, and
was, to all appearance, only waiting a favourable opportunity
to assassinate his wife, and to terminate immediately his own
existence. He was placed 'before the magistrates on 'Friday
for a preliminary examination, and remanded until his 'wife
should be in a state to give evidence.
Tun NEIGHBOURS of a disagreeable inhabitant of Manilla-
crescent, Weston-super-Mare, have made her out a legal nui-
sance, and the magistrates :have ordered a summons to be
issued against the owner of the house accordingly. The -snb-
ject of the complaint is a lady named Brown, of some property;
. but, says the local report, "of a very excitable temperament,
and, from the evidence, it appeared that the most alarming
quarrelling, screaming, swearing &c., are going on at this
establishment daily and nightly. On 'Saturday and Sunday
nights last, the awful oaths and dreadful imprecations which
issued from the house caused quite a terror in the neighbour-
hood, so much so that the residents adjoining could get no
rest, and several respectable families lodging near were about
to leave."
ATTEMPT AT MIIRDER.—As Mr. Richards' a butcher of
Landrake, in Cornwall, was on his way home from the Cal-
lington Market on Wednesday, he was fired at by a person
behind a hedge. At the time .he .was leading his horserand
was within about a mile of his home. On looking up he saw
the head of a man, and he cried out " Murder, murder !" No
one, however, came to his assistance, it being a very lonely
neighbourhood, and in his mounded state he was obliged ito
return home unassisted. It was found that a large number
of small shots had entered his body, the charge having passed
over his shoulder and down his :side. Although at first con-
sidered in danger, he is now, it .said, .in a fair way of re-
covery. No clue has been obtained of his assailant.
MORMONITES NOT PROTRSTANC DISSENTERS.—At the
West Bromwich Petty Sessions on Monday, John Danger-
field and William Price appeared to:answer a summons on the
information of Edward Hanham, of !Dudley, describing him-
self as a Dissenting minister, for that the said defendants, on
the 16th day of -September last, in the parish of Tipton, did
unlawfully disturb a meeting and congregation of Protestants,
dissenting from the church of England, assembled for reli-
gions worship in a meeting-house there, duly registered pur-
suant to the statute. It appeared that the congregation in
,question consisted of Mormons, or ." Latter-day Saints," and
hereupon the magistrate said he thought the case must be
dismissed. He thought it a material allegation in the in-
formation that the congregation in question was a congrega-
tion of Protestants, dissenting from the Church of England,
within the meaning of the statutes passed for their especial
protection. Referring to the statutes on the subject, from the
first of William and Mary to those passed in the reign of
George 111., he could not at present see that the-congregation
at Great Bridge Chapel of Latter-day Saints was -such as was
contemplated by the acts of Parliament passed for, the pro-
tection of -Protestant Dissenters. He would therefore leave
the complainants to their ordinary remedy at law.
Fr,oo-DING- OF A. QUARRY.—During the severe gale on
Friday week, when the flood tide in the Firth of Forth was at
its height, the heavy sea effected a large chasm in the rocky
embankment protecting Granton Quarry, and in the coarse of
a few minutes filled up its vast basin. This quarry, oat of
which Granton-pier was built by the Duke of Succleuch, rand
from which a massive breakwater is in the course of construc-
tion, enclosing the pier in a capacious harbour, is situate a
mile west of the pier, in an angle of the coast, two sides of its
embankment being.exposed to the action of the waves. There
being, however, -nearly 100 feet of rock protecting it from tidal
inroads, no apprehension was ever entertained from its proxi- !
mity to the sea. The tide of Friday morning was the height
of the stream, and a 'heavy hale was blowing from the west,
when, between three and four o'clock, about 60 yards of the
embankment on the west side was bodily carried into the
quarry, and the waves, rushing through the gap, filled it in
five or ten minutes. Had the occurrence taker. place from an
afternoon tide the results might have been most dreadful, for
the 50 or 60 men daily employed in it would at once have been
overwhelmed. As it was, the household of the foreman of the
.quarry had a most providential escape. They resided in a
house on the brink of the precipice, and so close to the portion
.of the bank which gave way that the gable and doorway and
part of the roof and flooring were washed away, and the inmates
had barely sufficient warning to escape by a window. The
quarry, having been nearly exhausted, is not likely to be again
used, as other seams of rock are understood to exist in the
immediate neighbourhood. The gale was not attended with
any serious consequences to the shipping in the Forth.
_ _
COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS' Senocm.—A large and fine
building, which has been erected close to the Pinner station of
the North-western Railway, by the commercial travellers of
the United Kingdom, as a home and school for the orphans of
the less fortunate of their body, was opened on Saturday week,
by Prince Albert, the Lord Mayor also attending, to give a
commercial tone to the proceedings. These consisted of the
reception of the Prinee, the children singing "God save the
Queen" and the Hundredth Psalm ; the presentation of a re-
markably appropriate address to his royal highness; after
which, and a prayer by Dr. Vaughan, head master of Harrow,
the Prince declared the institution opened : and at the close of
all comes a banquet. In the address it was stated,—" Between
two and three hundred young persons, from seven to fifteen
years of age, have been or are now being carefully trained, by
this charity, for a useful and honourable career in after-life,
who, but for this institution, might have been growing up in
neglect and indolence, contracting vicious habits, and maturing
in immorality. The Board of Management refer with much
gratification to the fact, that, so exemplary has been the con-
duct of the pupils of this institution during the location of the
establishment at Wanstead, that the clergy and gentry of the
neighbourhood have expressed, in the strongest terms, their
regret at the removal of the institution. It is true that this'
establishment, from its very nature, can never be distinguished
in the higher branches of education and learning; still it is
hoped that, in all those qualities which constitute moral ex-
cellence, the scholars of this institution may vie in honourable
rivalry with the noblest in the land; and although this school
may never, like a neighbouring seat of learning, send forth
poets, philosophers, and statesmen, to give lustre to their age
and country, and to aid in the councils of their Sovereign, it
will produce, it is hoped, a succession of those hardy sons of
commerce, equally essential to the existence of a commercial
nation, and who, by their loyalty to the Monarch, their reve-
rence for the laws, and their industry and integrity, shall con-
tribute to the stability of the throne and the material welfare
of the empire."—The list of subscriptions, including one from
the Prince of 100 guineas, amounted to nearly £2,000.
THE MUNICIPAL ELECTIOSS.
ON Thursday last, the annual election of sixteen gentle-
men, to serve as representatives of the different wards in the
Town Council, took place in accordance with the terms of the
act, and nine of the candidates were returned without op-
position. These were the following, viz.:—
Ward. Candidate.
Everton ...... Mr. T. D. Anderson. Re-elected without opposition.
Scotland... ..Mr. Richard Sheil Ditto.
Exchange.... Mr. James Tyrer Ditto.
St. Peter's.. Mr. J. C. Fernihough Ditto.
Pitt-street... Mr. William Mann Ditto.
Rodney-st. Mr. John B. Branckner Ditto.
Abercromby Mr. Robertson Gladstone Ditto.
Lime-street-Mr. Jas. A. Picton Ditto.
St. Anne's.. .Mr. T. L. Hodson .Ditto. _ _ .
Two of the elections resulted in very unexpected returns.
In Castle-street ward, a Conservative candidate brought late
into the field was returned by a triumphant majority : no
ConServative having on any previous occasion been returned to
represent the ward since the passing of the Municipal Reform
act. As a counterbalance to this triumph, the Conservatives
have to regret the defeat of Mr. Arthur Henderson, a long-
tried and consistent Conservative, AO, for Six 'years, repre-
sented West Derby Ward.

MANcnEsTEa.—The annual elections did not assume a
political complexion, and there were contests only in three out
of fifteen wards. For Exchange Ward, Mr. William Mount-
castle, hatter, was returned ; for Collegiate Ward, Mr. T. W.
Dyson, surgeon, was returned, and for St. John's, Mr. Alexan-
der M`Dougal, manufacturing chemist. The two first-named
are new members of the council.
SALFORD.—In the borough of Salford there were contests
in three out of eight wards, the election resulting in the re-
turn of the following :—Crescent Ward, Mr. Thomas John-
ston, painter, and Mr. James Parrott, gentleman ; St. John's
Broughton, Mr. C. E. Cowley, C.E., and Mr. W. S. Birch:

NORTHAMPTON, Thursday Evening.—The revolution in the
municipal affairs of our borough, commenced three years ago,
has to-day been completed, and, for the first time, the Tories
have obtained by popular election a majority in our Town
Council. Yesterday, our corporation was composed of seven
Liberal councillors, six Liberal alderman, and eleven Tory
councillors, giving the Liberals a majority of two. Of the six
councillors who were to retire, four were Liberals and two
Tories. To-day, the wards have returned ive Tories and one
Liberal, so that the council is thus constituted : Liberal
councillors, 4; Liberal aldermen, 6 k Tory councillors, 14 ;
working Tory majority, 4. The majorities of the winning
candidates are large in all the wards. The Tories intend to
restore at once all the civic state which was superseded twenty
years ago.

Michael, a job tor which he merely demanded a
bottle of wine.
But Michael had also his secret
agents, who instigated the stable-lads to acts of
revolt ; and it generally happened that he had in
his shed (which served him for a stable) some
jaded old horse, which he tricked out for sale in
a new campaign ; he coloured the hair over its
eyes, filed its teeth, and though the poor beast
could no longer eat anything else but bran, what
cared he ! The next market-day he was sure to
get rid of it for more than its worth.
When Michael, on his way to market or re-
turn home, saw Conrad breaking stones on the
road, he cast a look at him, half in_ pity half in
scorn, and thought, " Poor devili breaking

ELEGANT PERSONAL REQUISITES.
Under the Patronage of Royalty and the Aristocracy throughout
Europe, and univeritalli preferred and esteemed.
THE successful results of the last century have
proved beyond question that
ROWLANDS' MACASSAR OIL
possesses peculiarly nourishing powers in the growth, restoration,
and improvement of the Human Hair, and is now universally
acknowledged to be the cheapest, and superior to all other prepa-
rations for the Hair. It prevents it from falling off or turning
grey—strengthens weak hair—cleanses it from Scurf and Dandriff
—and makes it beautifully soft, curly, and glossy. Its operation
in cases of baldness is peculiarly active; and in the growth of the
Beard, Whiskers, Eyebrows, and Mustachios, it is unfailing in its
stimulative operation. For Children it is especially recommended,
as forming the basis of a beautiful head of hair. In dressing the
hair nothing can equal its effect, rendering it so admirably soft
that it will lie in any direction, and imparting a transcendent
lustre. Price 3s. 6d. and 7s. ; Family Bottles (equal to four small),
10s. 6d. ; and double that size, 21s. •
CAUTION.—On the wrapper of each Bottle are the words,
" Rowlands' Macassar Oil," in two lines.
A beautiful Complexion, and Soft Hands and Arms, are fully
realised and sustained by the use of
ROWLANDS' KALYDOR,
an Oriental Botanical preparation which, by its action on the
pores and minute secretory vessels of the skin, promotes a
healthy tone, so essential to its general well-being and the beauty
of its appearance. Freckles, Tan, Pimples, Spots, Discolouration,
and other Cutaneous Visitations are eradicated by the KALYDOk,
and give place to a radiant bloom and transparency of complexion.
During the heat and dust of summer, and in cases of sunburn,
stings of insects, or incidental inflammation, its virtues have long •
and extensively been acknowledged. Price 4s. Gd. and Bs. 6d.
per bottle.
Sound and White Teeth are not only indispensably requisite to
a pleasing exterior in both sexes, but they are peculiarly appre-
ciated through life as highly conducive to health and longevity.
Among the varied preparations offered for the purpose,
ROWLANDS' ODONTO, OR PEARL DENTIFRICE,
stands unrivalled. Prepared from Oriental Herbs with unusual
care, transmitted to this country at great expense, this unique
compound will be found to eradicate all tartar and concretions,
and impart a pearl-like whiteness to the enamelled surface, re-
move spots of incipient decay, render the gums firm and red, fix
the teeth firmly in their sockets, and from its aromatic influence
imparts sweetness and purity to the breath. Price 2s. 9d. per box.
CAUTION.—The words "Rowlands' Otionto" are on the label,
and "A. Rowland and. Son, 20, Hatton-garden, engraved on the
Government Stamp affixed to each box. Sold by them, and by
Chemists and Perfumers.

MR. SMITH O'BRIEN has advertised a new book on politi-
cal subjects, the title being, " The Principles of Government,
or Meditations in Exile."
THE PRESIDENT of the Poor-law Board has appointed Mr.
R. B. Cane, one of the chief clerks of the Poor-law Office, who
has been in the service of the commission from its commence-
ment, to succeed Mr. Austin as Poor-law Inspector.
JOHN WORSEY, miller, of Brorasgrove, has been fined £5
and costs, for having in his possession 6001bs. of alum, for the
purpose of adulterating flour. The defence was that the alum
was used for mending holes in the mill•stones.
TEE LADY SPORTSMAN.—It will be remembered that an
announcement appeared to the effect that the Game-list for the
county of Leicester contained the name of a lady as being en-
titled to kill game. This week the fair one has had her
" lovely fingers" shattered by the bursting of her gun.—
Leicester Paper.
THE BELGIAN GOVERNMENT, rather than interdict the
use of corn and potato starch in manufactures, which would be
to stop labour for the purpose of economising food, has offered
a prize of 10,000 francs for the discovery of a non-alimentary
substance to replace the use of starch in those industrial oc-
cupations in which it is now employed.
A WOMAN, aged 115 years, has just died at Oravitza. She
had preserved her vision almost unimpaired, and all her
teeth. Her husband, who died three years ago, had reached
the same age as herself, and both sank at last under the
burden of old age alone, for neither of them had ever
been ill.
PAHL, STRAHAN, AND BATRB.-It is stated that these crimi-
nals will remain in Newgate or the Milbank Prison until a
complete investigation of their affairs is made and a balance-
sheet in bankruptcy filed ; and that afterwards they will be re-
moved to Gibraltar for the remaining period of their sentence.

THE ORDER OF THE SERAPHIM, the insignia of which
King Oscar has just sent to the Emperor Napoleon, is the
oldest and the most distinguished of the orders of Swedish,

where the tombs of the kings of Sweden are built, and the
death of each knight of the Order is announced by the tolling

A REAL rara axis—a black swan—was captured Rif Ex-
mouth last week. It was poor in flesh, and evidently ex-
hausted by long flight, but showed by its plumage and other
indications that it had never been in captivity. It is sup-
posed that by a long succession of storms it has been driven
from the PftelfiC, its only known habitation. An 'equally rare
fish was caught at Gravesend on Friday, during the high wind
and tide—a sword fish of ift. bindles in length, and possess-
ing a sword of 2ft. 6in.

by Grder of the British government. Amongst the expelled
are Victor Hugo and his sons. The declaration referred to
contained the most unmeasured abuse of the Emperor Napo-
leon, and expressed bitter temptcon for England, concluding
with the words, " Now expel us, you choose."
MILITARY PREPARATIONS.—The Government has entered
into extensive contracts for the supply of MiniA rifles, rifled
-and Victoria carbines, revolvers, and cavalry ( heavy and light)
sabres. The number of firearms of all descriptions required is
upwards of 100,000 stand, and 10;000 sabres. The contracts
are divided among the gun manufacturers of London and Bir-
mingham, Liege and Nantur ( Belgium), and Boston ( United
States). The sword cutlers of Sheffield have taken the con-
tract for sabres.
AeouT seventeen miles below Gainsborough, on the right
bank of the Trent, stands the pretty secluded village of Bur-
ringham. The parish is without a church, and for some time
past efforts have been made to raise funds to erect one. The
following novel announcement, which has been circulated in
Brigg, looks as if it had been quoted from the Tablet : —" For
the benefit of Burlingham Church.—To be raffled for, at half-
past three o'clock, a.pure bred Skye terrier dog, direct from the
island ; twenty shares, at 55. each. Also, a pure bred terrier
puppy, four months old, same breed; twelve shares, at bs. each:,
Mu. Ftenaus O'Cormon's land scheme was wound up last
week, at Sheffield, before the commissioner appointed by the
master in chancery. The object the master in chancery has in
view is to ascertain bow to apportion the surplus assets of the
company equitably amongst all the accredited claimants. From
the company's accounts it appears that about £90,000 is the
whole amount which was subscribed, by about seventy thou-
sand persons. On the average, above one-third of the claim-
ants have reappeared, and about two-thirds of the amount sub-
scribed has been claimed.
ATTEMPTED MVRDER.—On the 4th ,ult., Thomas Franks,
residing at Nottingham, made a desperate attack upon his
wife as she lay in bed, inflicting several dangerous wounds
with a razor. He afterwards absconded from the town, and,
though active ‘efforts were made for his apprehension,
nothing was heard of 'him until Thursday evening last, when
information was sent to the
police-station that he was pacing
to and fro in disguise in front of the house
. inizhich his wife
still lay suffering from his cruel assault
were immediately despatched to the spot, and succeededoconstables
apprehending him in all , probability just in time to in
prevent
loss of life, for the man had a brace of loaded ' pistols, and
was, to all appearance, only waiting a favourable opportunity
to assassinate his wife, and to terminate immediately his own
existence. He 'vas placed before the magistrates on Friday
for a preliminary examination, and remanded until his wife
should be in a-state to give evidence.
Tun NEIGH-130U L% of a disagreeable inhabitant•of Manilla,
crescent, Weston-super-Mare, have made her out a legal nui-
sance, and the magistrates have ordered a summons to be
issued against the owner of the house accordingly. The sub-
ject of the complaint is a lady mamed Brown, of some property;
but, says the local report, "of a very excitable temperament,
and, from the evidence, it appeared that the most alarming
quarrelling, screaming, swearing &es, are going on at this
establishment daily and nightly. On Saturday and Sunday
nights last, the awful- oaths and dreadful imprecations which
issued from the house caused quite a terror in the neighbour-
hood, so much so that the residents adjoining could get no
rest, and several respectable families lodging near were about
to leave."
ATTEMPT AT MITIIDRR.—As Mr. Richards, a butdher of
Landrake, in Cornwall, was on his way home from the Cal-
lington Market on Wednesday, he was fired at by a person
behind a hedge. At the time he was leading his horse, and
was within about a mile of his home. On looking up he saw
the head of a man, and he cried out " Murder, murder !" No
one, however, came to his assistance, it being a very lonely
neighbourhood, and in his wounded state he was obliged to
return home unassisted. It was found that a large number
of small shots had entered his body, the charge having passed
over his shoulder and down his side. Although .at first oon-
sidered in danger, he is now, it is said, in a fair way of re-
covery. No clue has .keen obtained of his assailant.
MORMONITES NOW PROTESTANT DISSENTERC—At the
West Bromwich Petty Sessions on Monday, John Danger-
field and William Price appeared to answer a summons on the
information of Edward Hanham, of Dudley, descriking
self as a Dissenting minister, for that the said defendants, on
the 16th day of September last, in the parish of Tipton, did
unlawfully disturb a meeting and congregation of Protestants,
dissenting from the church of England, assembled for reli-
gious worship in a meeting-house there, duly registered pur-
suant to the statute. It appeared that the congregation in
question consisted of Mormons, or " Latter-day Saints," And
hereupon the magistrate said he thought the case must be
dismissed. He thought it a material allegation in the in-
formation that the congregation in :question was a congrega-
tion of Protestants, dissenting from the Church of England,
within the meaning of the statutes passed for their especial
protection. Referring to the statutes on the subject, from the
!first of William and Mau to those passed in the reign of
George 111., he could not at present see that the congregation
at Great Bridge Chapel of Latter-day Saints was such as was •
,contemplated by the acts of Parliament passed for the pro-
tection of Protestant Dissenters,. lie waald therefore leave '
.the complainants to their ordinary remedy at law.
IFLooDING OF A QUARRY.—During the severe gale on
Friday week, wheii the flood tide in the Firth of Forth was at
its height, the heavy sea effected a large chasm in the rocky
embankment protecting Grantor Quarry, and in the course of
a few minutes filled up its vast basin. This quarry, out of
which Granton-pier was built by the Duke of Baccleuch, and
from which a massive breakwater is in the course ofconstruc-
tion, enclosing the pier in a capacious .harbour, is situate a
mile westuf the pier, in an angle of the coast, two sides of its
embankment being exposed to the action of the waves. There
being, howev.-er, nearly 100 feet of rock proteetingit from tidal
inroads, no apprehension was ever entertained from its proxi-
mity to the sea. The tide of Friday mornine• was the height
of the stream, and a heavy gale was blowing from the west,
when, between three and four o'clock, about 60 yards 'of the
embankment en die west side was bodily carried into the
quarry, and the waves, rushing through the gap, filled it in
five or ten minutes.. Had the occurrence taker. place from an
afternoon tide the results might have been most dreadful, for
the 60 or 60 men daily employed in it would at once have been
overwhelmed. As it was, the household of the foreman of the
quarry had a most providential escape. They resided in a
house on the brink of the precipice, and so close to the portion
of the bank which gave way that the gable and doorway and
part of the roof and flooring were washed away, and the inmates
had barely sufficient warning to escape by a window. The
quarry, having been nearly exhausted, is not likely to be again i
used, as other seams of rock are understood to exist in the
immediate neighbourhood. The gale was not attended with
any serious consequences to the shipping in the Forth.
COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS' SCROOL.—A large and fine
building, which has been erected dose to the Pinner station of
the North-western Railway, by the commercial travellers of
the United Kingdom, as a home and school for the orphans of
the less fortunate of their body, was opened on Saturday week,
by Prince Albert, the Lord Mayor also attending, to give a
commercial tone to the proceedings. These consisted of the
reception of the Prince, the children singing " God save the
Queen" and the Hundredth Psalm ; the presentation of a re-
markably appropriate address to his royal highness ; after
which, and a prayer by Dr. Vaughan, head master of Harrow,
the Prince declared the institution opened : and at the close of
all comes a banquet. In the address it was stated,—" Between
two and three hundred young persons, from seven to fifteen
years of age, have been or are now being carefully trained, by
this charity, for a useful and honourahle career in after-life,
who, but for this institution, might have been growing up in
neglect and indolence, contracting vicious habits, and maturing
in immorality. The Board of Management refer with much
gratification to the fact, that, so exemplary has been the con-
duct of the pupils of this institution during the location of the
establishment at Wanstead, that the clergy and gentry of the
neighbourhood have expressed, in the strongest terms, their
regret at the removal of the institution. It is true that this
establishment, from its very nature, can never be distinguished
in the higher branches of education and learning; still it is
hoped that, in all those qualities which constitute moral ex-
cellence, the scholars of this institution may vie in honourable
rivalry with the noblest in the land; and although this school
may never, like a neighbouring seat of learning, send forth
poets, philosophers, and statesmen, to give lustre to their age
and country, and to aid in the councils of their Sovereign, it
will produce, it is hoped, a succession of those hardy sons of
commerce, equally essential to the existence of a commercial
nation, and who, by their loyalty to the Monarch, their reve-
rence for the laws, and their industry and integrity, shall con-
tribute to the stability of the throne and the material welfare
of the empire."—The list of subscriptions, including one from
the Prince of 100 guineas, amounted to nearly £2,000.
THE ,MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS.
ON Thursday last, the annual election of sixteen gentle-
men, to serve as representatives of the different wards in the
Town Council, took place in accordance with the terms of the
act, and nine of the candidates were returned without op-
position. These were the following, viz.:—
Ward. Candidate.
Everton......Mr. T. D.Anders.on. Re-elected without opposition.
Scotland... -Mr. Richard Shell Ditto.
Exchange.... Mr. James Tyrer Ditto.
St. Peter's.. Mr. J. C. Fernihough Ditto.
Pitt•street... Mr. William Mann Ditto.
Rodney-st. Mr. John B. Branckner Ditto.
Abercromby Mr. Robertson Gladstone Ditto.
Lime-street.. Mr. Jas. A. Picton Ditto.
St. Anne's.. .Mr. T. L. Hodson Ditto.
_
Two of the elections resulted in very unexpected returns.
In Castle-street ward, a Conservative candidate brought late
into the field was returned by a triumphant majority : no
Conservative having on any previous occasion been returned to
represent the ward since the passing of the Municipal Reform
act. As a counterbalance to this triumph, the Conservatives
have to regret the defeat of Mr. Arthur Henderson, a long-
tried and consistent Conservative, who, for six years, repre-
sented West Derby Ward. -

ing two half-crowns from the shop kept by Mary Hill, in
Mildart-street, on Saturday last.

ATTEMPTED ROBBERY OF A TILL—A boy, named Patrick
Keenan, was brought before the Police-court yesterday,
charged with attempting to rob the till of the shop kept by

imprisoned for three months.
DEATIE PROM EXCESSIVE DRINKING.— On Saturday night,
a labourer, named James Earle Probert, who lived in 39 court,
FredeHck-street, went home to his lodgings in a state of in-
toxication, his usual condition. He complained of a burning
pain in his throat, and asked for something to drink. Having
obtained this, he went to bed. During the night, he rose, and
still complaining of his throat, had another drink. Toward.:
morning, he got worse, and on trying to drink some cold
water, was unable to swallow it, and was put to bed, where he
was found dead soon afterwards.
STEALING WEARING APPAREL—Two women, named
Ellen Braithwaite and Sarah Irvine, were brought up at

FATAL ACCIDENT.—On Thursday last, as a farmer named
William Edon, who resided at Craston, accompanied by a
neighbour farmer named Thomas Snalan, was looking after
some hay he expected by railway, at the Great Howard-street
Station, he got in front of some waggons which were being
shifted by horses. Not being quite aware of their proximity
to where he was, Edon was caught by them, and jammed
between them and the one on which his hay was placed. In
the collision he suffered such injuries as to cause the neces-
sity of his removal to the Northern Hospital, where he died
on Sunday.
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.—The monthly meeting of the
Council was held yesterday, Edward Heath, Esq., president,
in the chair. The usual formal business being disposed of,
th, mmrniftee ,prrAy,to,l nn the 23rd ult., on the present state
of monetary affairs, was requested to take into consideration
the operation of the Bank Charter Act of 1844, and to report
to the Council. It was ordered that a copy of the report of ,
the deputation to the Paris Exhibition, on the samples of
cotton and other raw produce there exhibited, be sent to the
Board of Trade. Among the communications were letters
from the Foreign-office, in reply to the memorial on the sub-
ject of the loan to the Monte Videan Government of 1845,—
referred to the Special C )mmittee ; also one from the Board of
Trade, in answer to the suggestion that a floating light-house
should be placed at the entrance of St. George's Channel, to
indicate the fair way, and stating the reasons for declining to
comply therewith.

which the chairman described a pyrometer which he had
seen in operation, and which had this advantage over Mr.
Miller's that it was continuous in its application. The next
paper was one by Mr. Jones, descriptive of Callen and Ripley's
patent multiplying rotative motion, which was illustrated by
a well-executed model. The great advantage gained was by
the reduced friction, and it was said to be peculiarly applicable
to the screws of large steamers, not only economising space,
but gaining speed. It was intended to exhibit a model of
Clelland's stone boring machine, but in the absence of the
president, who was to explain it, the exhibition was postponed. -ulf •

LITERARY EXTRACTS.
A SACRED TlTLE.—Having lately read Herbert's
" Country Parson," my mind has been entirely
changed as it respects the name or title of " Parson,
a word I was accustomed to use in derision and con-
tempt for every man wearing a black 'coat, and pro-
fessing himself to be a minister of the gospel. This
title used in its true sense is sacred. It is of Latin
derivation, being taken from persona—because by his
person, the church,•which is an invisible body, is sup-
posed to be represented—personated.--Coleridge'•

CATTLE.
LIVERPOOL, Nov. s.—We have had moderate supplies of
stock to-day, with a better attendance of buyers. Good qualities
of beef much sought after, at an advance of id per lb, and other
descriptions ma le fully last week's prices. Prime wedders were
very scarce and dearer. Other articles unaltered in value, but
more saleable than of late. Good beef worth 6d to 6d per lb;
mutton, 6d to 6d per lb. Cattle, 2,541 ; sheep, 9,167.
SALFORD,.OOT. 31.—The best beef and mutton maintained
last week's prices ; inferior lower. Calf trade brisk. Beat beef,
6d to 7d; middling, 54d to 50; cows, 4d to s}d; belt wedders,
6d to 7d; heavy weights, 54d to 54d; ewes, 4d to sd; calves 6d to
7d. Number of beasts, 1,341; sheep, 5,985; calves, 125. .
DUBLIN, Nov. I.—Although there was, a full market, yet it
was not quite so large as that of thisday week. -,Buying was not
so brisk, all descriptions, even the best, being more difficult to
sell. Beef, mutton, and pork at a small reduction. We quote
beef at from 488 to 60s. top price 60s per cwt. ;
.mutton 'lid to 5d
and 6i to Gad per lb; veal, id to 7id per lb; pigs, on foot, 50s to
53s per cwt. A good deal of stock remained over and for ship-
ment.

HORTICULTURE.
KITCHEN GARDEN.----If not already done, take ad-
vantage of, dry days, when the ground is in working
order, to take up and store •carrots; beeti.parsnips,
and stack them in sand in a cool place, where they,
will be conveniently got at when required for, use. •
FnurT.,—Any fruits remaining. on the trees should
be gathered at once, for there will be little gained by
allowing them to hang longer on the trees, While
there will be some danger of their being blown down
and bruised. Keep the fruit-room,cOol and airy, but
pears approaching maturity will be improVed in flavour
by removal to a warm dry roof a few days before
they are wanted for use, particularly such Us are .not
fully ripe.. Proceed, with the planting of Young.treeS,
and root-pruning, or lifting such as require this atten-
tion, and take care after disturbirig the roots to secure
the trees well against wind, so as to prevent their
being rocked about and the roots injured, and do this
.before there is any .chance of their being blown down.
_ FLOWER GARDEN.—The season is now so • far
advanced that it will be very unsafe to trust such
things as large plants of scarlet geraniums, fuchias,
&c., which it may be intended to winter for use next
season to, the mercy of the weather any longer, and
these should be taken up and placed in safe quarters
without loss of time. Plants, however, which are
still in good condition, and which can be covered at
_night when there is reason to apprehend frost may be
left for sometime longer. It will also be advisable to
get the whole stock of variegated geraniums into their
winter quarters at once, for the hardiest of theie will
not bear much frost without the foliage and young
wood being injured, and where the plants haire to be
wintered in situations which are not very suitable for
them they should be taken up before they are at all
injured by. frost, as they will be much more liable to
damp and die back in winter if the wood is at all
injured by frost. Unless where there is a sufficient
stock of these they should not be cut back, as is usually
done with the old starlets, but should be kept over the
winter just as they are lifted from the beds, and cut
back early in spring after starting them into growth,
when the cuttings will root very freely in. heat, and in
the case. of "Flower of the Day," or other free growers,
will make useful sized plants by turning out time, and
even the strongest growers, of these do not cover a bed
very- quickly unless planted thick, and the plants
should therefore be wintered in as large a state as the

within that narrow limit. Like his immediate predecessor,
he extended those hospitalities to illustrious and distinguished
strangers, and by securing their participation in such social
amenities with his fellow-townsmen, he spread the municipal
fame abroad, while he sustained its dignity at home.
Without intruding any invidiousness of distinction between
them and their predecessors, it is impossible to view the
mayoralties of Mr. TOBIN and Mr. Jonx Bucx LLOYD as
being other than in a considerable degree the counterpart and
complement of each other. The distinguishing features of
the former were the inauguration of St. George's Hall, and
the hospitality connected with the meeting of the British
Association for the Promotion of Science; thus extending the
hand of social fellowship to those who are illustrious in science
and distinguished by learning. The festive celebrations of
the latter have likewise in a great degree connected them-
selves with the same edifice. St. George's Hall has been thrown
open by Mr. TOBIN as a place of rational and elevating enter-
tainment for the people, that proceeding being inaugurated by
a musical festival in which even royalty participated. The
first public,meeting held in that hall was under the auspices
of Mr. J. Buck LLOYD, to set on foot a Liverpool subscription
for the Patriotic Fund. The carrying out of that noble sub-
scription in its princely munificence was perfected by Mr•
Tones. A more singular and striking matter in connexion
between this hall and these gentlemen remains yet to be noted.
The principal resolution connected with 'that meeting was
proposed in language of manly and thrilling eloquence by the
late venerable Archdeacon BaooKs. The last official act of
Mr. Tonix's mayoralty was to preside over a meeting at which
it was resolved to erect a statue to the memory of the good
man, in that same hall which had its echoes first awakened by
his eloquence, as he persuasively enforced the claims of the
widows and orphans of our gallant soldiers to public gratitude
and national protection.
Another and a valuable feature yet remains to grace the
mayoralty of Mr. TOBIN, and to distinguish it from all it
gre-
iecessors. During his tetmre of office the heretofore conilict-
'lug interests existing on the opposite shores of the Mersey
have been fused into aunty of relation ; the bone of 'conten-
tion between them has been removed, their interests have been
amalgamated, and Mr. Tones leaves to his successor on ex-
tended jurisdiction, With an abbreviated amount of anxiety,
augmented dignity, and lessened care.

MOVIYAV NIGHT.
THERE have been very slight fluctuations in the
value of the Public Funds durinc, the week. Renewed
confidence reduced an upward° tendency, but some
absurd rumours towards the close of the week respect-
ing differences with the United States induced a
slight deoine, which was, however, of very. brief
duration. No alteration has taken place in the
minimumTrate of discount by the .nk of England,
-but money for commercial purposes has been com-
paratively easy, notwithstanding 'the preparations for
acceptances coming due the 4th (of the month, and
discounts for good paper have been about half per
cent. =below the Bank rate. There have been very
dight-alterations• in foreign 'ejmhanges, the intelli-
gence from the seat of 'war'has presented nothing ‘-of
parfitular importance, Cotton ihas been higher quid
Corn lower, so that upon the whole the week has
been quiet but satisfactory. 'By the Bank returns,
441/Wished on Friday, it appears that there was an
inertease in the stock of bullion in the week ‘ended
27th of October of L73,176.811u both departmettts, but
:.as only a small portion of is included in the issue

have been met in a manner to confirm thexpinion thus far
confidently entertained of `the general soundness of trade and
the ability of the snereantile community' to meet without
alarm the peculiar pressure in the inoney-market. According
to the reports from theTrincipal banking establishments this
evening. the day ling passed off without zan unsatisfactory
indication of any kind. A great cliangevwas observable to-
day in the discountquarket. Money was comparatively
abundant, and the discount houses refusit: to receive further
sums at call. One ,df`ltein it is said, lent a considerable
amount on the StoOk-Eschange for a -short period at 4
per cent.
With reference *s the Curren,ey..rauestion, an able
writer in Blackirooders Magazine for this month says
A money-famine and consequent panic is setting in, entirely
occasioned by the absurd provisions of Sir R. Peel's Currency
Act of 1844; and AS -money is the sinews of war, unless we
set right the former, we shall never be able to carry on the
latter. A paralysis at home threatens to neutrshallalisfinde all
our-
our
successes abroad. if .we.do not takemare, we
selves in the position-of -a soldier who-is- choked by his equip-
) ment—we shall be strangled while we fight. Our currency
is made to depend upon gold in- so we
a fashion, that as
sovereigns go out of country, bank-notes are likewise
1 withdrawn from eirails.tion, so' that the drain upon the cur-
jrency of the countryis.doubled ; it-iilite lighting the candle
lat both ends. We ourselves. need to-export specie to defray
a
the expense of oar army abroad; • so does France; so does
' Russia. In fact, it is,na exaggeration to say, that t present
there is a general mill: among the powers of Europe to possess
themselves of gold. ?Well, although -our present currency
system is entirely based upon the retention of a large amount
lof gold in this country, that retention is not possible. If
other states wish gold, they can always have it from this
country by paying a .commensurate price for it. The 0011SO-
-quences of this to us,ifrnot wardedoffby an alteration of our
-currency laws, will bernin. The deadliest blow that Russia
.could now level at us, would be to .draw from this country
a million or two of bullion—even although it were to pay
tfor it at the rate of £5 or .£6 .or even 810 the ounce. In
,aur present position, each a step woe(' paralyse us at *nee.

CORN.
LIVERPOOL, Nov. 2.—There was a fair attendance of buyers
at our market this morning, and with rather more tone in the
wheat trade, the prices of Tuesday have been maintained in the
business transacted, which, however, was not large, several millers
iron a distance taking on the whole but a moderate quantity.
There was a fair show of new wheat offering this morning in
improved condition from neighbouring growers, and upon a good
demand our last quotations were maintained. Flour was in
tolerable request for consumption, and both sacks and barrels
sold for more money; some quantity of Spanish was taken for
export to the East at 65s and 66s per sack. In barley, beans,
oats, and oatmeal there is no change to note, the demand for each
being on a moderate scale. We have a renewed activity, partly
speculative, in Indian corn, the available parcels of Atnerican
mixed being cleared at 443.

MANCHESTER, Nov. I.—To-day the trade again ruled dull,
and the following reductions must be noted, namely, Id to 2d per
bushel on English wheat, 3d to 4d on Irish, and 671 on American;
the latter being in more plentiful supply. Flour was also Is. per
sack lower, oatmeal 6.1 per load, and oats ld per bushel. Beans
firm at full prices.
PRESTON, Nov. 3.—Tbere WaS a considerable falling off in
the supply of English wheat at the Corn Exchange this morning,
yet at the commencement of the market it might have been
bought on rather easier terms, but the demand being active, it
closed firm at the full prices of last Saturday. A little more
enquiry for all descriptions in granary at our last currency.
English flour cannot be sold without submitting to an abatement
of is per pack Oats in more request, but without change in
value. The demand for oatmeal is limiteti to the retail require-
ments of the trade at about our last quotations.

WAKEFIELD, Nov. 2.—01 d wheat maintained its price; new
must be noted is per quarter lower, except very choice parcels;
inferior sorts stow sale. Barley Is per quarter dearer. Beans
rather higher. Oats and shelling slow sale.
WISBECH, Nov. 3.—We are moderately supplied with grain
here to-day of all kinds. Good dry miller's wheat is quite as
dear as last week, but damp inferior samples are Is per quarter
lower. Spring corn in good demand at full prices.
NEWCASTI.E-UPON-TYNF., Nov. 3.—To-day there was a
large supply of farmers' wheat, which experienced an improved
demand from Tuesday's market, and sold en much the same
terms as this day week, except inferior samples, which were
rather easier to buy. Holders of south country and old foreign
insist upon full prices, and the business done has been quite of a
retail character—some middling old Holstein sold at 88s per
quarter. Barley, beans, and peas come sparingly to hand, and
are unchanged in value. A fair supply of oats, demand less
active, and prices in favour of the buyers.
- -
CORK, Nov. 3.—The flour market was dull this week and sales
small ; prices nre unaltered. Foreign wheat is held firm, but
harder to sell. Indian corn attracts speculative buyers, amongst
whom good stocks have accumulated. The grain market is well
supplied; wheat is Is to is 6d lower on the week ; barley, is
dearer; oats, unaltered.

DUBLIN, Nov. 2.—We had a very small supply and a firm
market at our Corn-Exchange to-day. We do not alter our quo-
tations of Tuesday, which were fully supported for every descrip-
tion of grain and Indian corn.

very scarce and dearer. Other articles unaltered in value, but

Dr. FRANKLIN is one of the very few legally qualified physi-
cians who have directed attention to these diseases;„ from long
practical observation of the treatment pm sued in the most cele-
brated institutions of this country and the continent, has had,
perhaps, unusual opportunities of witnessing the various pecu-
liarities relating to the disorders; and having for. a number of
years devoted his studies almost e24:lusively to this-class of com-
plaints,.be is-enabled confidently Va.:undertake their removal in as
short a.time as is consistent with safety. Dr. F. 4 to distinguish
himself. from noa-qualified men,_ refers to his qualifications as
above, and he earnestly cautions, the public against a host of
ignorant pretenders and rapacious Jew quacks, who infest the
various seaports, and to make strict inquiry before risking life,
&c.,,in the hands of such empirics. A list oLpretenders in Liver—
pool sent on application.
Persons at a distance will be minute in the detail of their cases;
and no letters from strangers will be replied to unless they con-.
Lain Iby Post-office order, or, otherwise when Advice and Medi-
cines will be sent securely packed from observation or accident.

PIANO-FORTE TUNING.
At the suggestion of many of his Customers, W. R. takes this
mode of intimating, and subm'tting for approval, a Scale of
Charges for Tuning Piano-fortes by the Year.
That Piano-fortes be Tuned by a c ,mpetent rerson, at regular
intervals, is of importance even in the case of an imifferent in-
strument, but it is indispensably requisite where the preservation,
or otherwise, of a really good one is involved.
The trequentlyexpressed satisfaction of those Ladies who have
done W. A. the honour to try this sy,tein, is the best recommen-
dation in its favour.
SCALE OF CHARGES FOR TUNING PIANO-FORTES BY THE YEAR.
Grand, Cottage, and Picolos £l 1 0
Two in the same house ll5 0
SINGLE TUNINGS.
Cottage, Picolos, and Squares, each 0 3 6
Ditto and Grands, with Three Strings
New Strings are included 'in the above charges; and each in-
strument should be Tuned at regular periods, to ensure its being
always in excellent order. The same rates will be charged for
Piano-fortes within Twelve Miles of Town, with the addition of
expenses. Tunings in the Country carefully attended to on the
different journies.
Repairing and Regulating by first-class Workmen; charges
moderate.
Orders addressed 28, HAMILTON-STREET, BIRKENHEAD, will

BROMLEY'S PATENT EMPIRE SOAP,
which heretofore has been difficult to be obtained, as very
few of the grocers will keep it. ' To use their own words, by way
of explanation, they state,—" Were we to buy it, it would reduce
cur sales fully one third, a i two pounds of the Empire Soap will
go es far as three pounds of any other soap; we should also lose
our profit on soda and washing powders, as neither of these
rticies are required when the Empire Soap is used, in either the
hardest water or in sea water." What the grocers are displeased
at in this soap is its strongest recommendation to the notice of
the large consumers, private families, hotel keepers, laundresses,
&c. It only requires to be used with a light hand. And besides
the above advantage it saves half the usual labour, consequently
less friction and wear in the clothes, and will rot injure the
colours in the most delicate printS ; and is equally valuable for
every other domestic purpose, even for toilet use, as it is a pure
soap, free from rosin and other useless ingredients, which not
only add unnecessary weight to the soap but detract from its
cleansing properties.
To the ad wholesale at the Works, No. 22, Cherry-lane, and
from ollowing dealers :—Mr. Edward Davies, chandler, No.
84, London-road; Messrs. Tasker and Price, 209, London-
road ; Mr. John Dixon, grocer, No. 48, Pembroke-place ; Mr.

One Trial will prove the superiority of this soap. •

THE LATE ARCHDEACON BROOKS.
THE people of Liverpool have decided to commemo-
rate the virtues and long services of our late Archdeacon
by a statue, to be placed in one of the niches within
St. George's-hall. Our readers will recollect that,
some weeks ago, we suggested a church as the most
fitting monument ; while some have recommended a
girls' school, and others an endowment for the unfi-
nished church, which is already popularly known and
spoken of as Archdeacon BnooEs',---and very appro-
priately, being the last within the bounds of this great
parish in which he was permitted to interest himself.
Against the decision in favour of a statue we would say
nothing more than, that we should have preferred
something which, while it would have equally marked
the Parishioners' sense of their late Rector's many
virtues, would have been calculated to promote the
higheSt interests of those who were sometime his flock.
The people have said a statue, and, therefore, a statue
let it be : and we earnestly hope, that the subscrip-
tion-list will not only allow the committee to engage
the first talent for its execution, but furnish a large
balance for other objects after all expenses are de-
frayed.- In one point of view, even we are ready to
admit that a statue is preferable to what ourselves ven-
tured to suggest ; for, had a church been decided
upon, it could hardly have been expected that any but
churchmen would have contributed towards its erec-
tion. Certainly, no consistent Dissenter could have
done so. To a statue, however, particularly to one
which is to be erected in a secular building, such as
St. George's-hall, the Dissenter may contribute as
conaistently as a Churchman ; and of many thousands
of them, we believe, he had secured the love and
respect, no less than of his own people. And, there-
fore, while we retain our previously expressed opinion,
and should have rejoiced had our fellow-townsmen
coincided with us, we again say, a statue let it be, and
one at once worthy of him whom it is intended to
commemorate, and of the noble building in which it
will be placed.
But, is it really imperative to confine the con-
tributions of the people to one object? Let the statue,
by all means, be first provided for : but cannot some-
thing else be done, more immediately connected with
the great parish over which the late Archdeacon so
long presided ? We have already said, that one of
the suggestions was to raise an endowment for the
yet unfinished church in the district of Vauxhall:
and we do not believe that any insuperable difficulty
would be found, if it should be attempted to carry it
out. Nothi 2; could be more appropriate, for helook
a special interest in its erection, and already it is
popularly connected with his name by the people in
its more immediate neighbourhood. And no one can
look at the neighbourhood without being convinced,
that an adequate endowment would be as great a
boon as the church itself. There can be no doubt
that the erection of a House of God, and the location
of a Minister of God, in such a place, are great steps
in the right direction; and that even under the most.
unfavourable circumstances some spiritual good must
result from them. But, for many reasons, it is im-
portant that the Minister should be provided with a
maintenance : for, not to speak of the difficulty of
raising a sufficient income in a poor district ; not to
speak of the fact that he must feel painfully conscious
that every augmentation of income testifies of self-
denial and self-sacrifice, upon the part of those who
can least afford them ; how painful a position is it for
him to be placed in, to know that whenever the line
of duty diverges from that of popular prejudice, he
can only follow the former at the risk, or rather with
the certainty, of having his already-limited-means
still further reduced. As long as his income arises
from pew-rents he will be regarded by the bulk of
his congregation, not as the minister of God and their
servant for Jesus' sake, but, as their servant directly
and immediately, engaged for their service, and paid
with their money. And though they cannot, upon
any particular occasion, show their dissatsfaction
by dismissing him from his post, they will not
fail to withdraw themselves and leave him to
starve in it. This is a position in which no
honest man should be placed, be he high Church-
man or low Churchman. It gives to his congregation
a power which, even for their own sakes, it is
not desirable that they should possess. However,
even supposing this difficulty to be overcome, and the
congregation taught to regard God's minister as a
shepherd, and themselves as his flock, others remain
behind; and not the least of these is, that his income
will in all probability be at its lowest, when he has
the greatest need of all his resources. Pew-rents in
a poor neighbourhood will never produce any very
large sum, but will assuredly produce less than usual
in years of distress, let the distress arise from what
cause it may ; and these are the very times at which
he will be constantly called upon to put his hand in
his pocket. The expenses of himself, and of his family
if he has one, are largely increased ; he is surrounded
by numerous cases of sickness and poverty ; and his
income, which was barely sufficient before, is dimi-
nished by a third, or a half, or even more. And how
many opportunities of doing good are lost by the
Minister who is constantly compelled to turn a deaf
ear to the complaints, or shut his eyes upon the
miseries of his people, we need hardly say.
But, besides all this, it will not be denied, that they
who minister at the Altar have a claim for their own
sakes. They are entitled not only to a maintenance
for themselves, but to such a maintenance as will
enable them to make provision for their families.
Clergy-orphan Schools, and Clergy-widows' Funds,
are all very well, but there ought to be no necessity
for them ; and painful must be the lot of one who, while
he is spending and being spent in the service of God,
has no more cheering prospect for his loved ones, when
himself shall be removed from them, than is generally
afforded by these and similar institutions. So far the
case would be different, if our Clergy, like those of
Rome, were bound to a life of celibacy ; but, to say
nothing of the inexpediency and wickedness of re-
quiring from them such a vow, we may safely assert
that they are hardly allowed a choice in the matter.
They not only may, but, as a general rule, they ought
to, and must, marry. We say must: for theretis a
general prejudice against an unmarried clergy, and
not without foundation in reason. But surely the
laity, who require them to marry, should enable them
to do so without the almost-certainty of leaving, at
some future period, a family of paupers behind them.
It would be easy to extend our remarks upon this
subject; but enough, we think, has been said to show,
that no testimonial to our late Archdeacon could be
more useful, none more appropriate, than an endow-
ment for a church in a poor district which owes its
erection in so great a measure to his exertions. Doubt-
less there are many others which need it as much ; but
if the evil, in this town of overwhehnning magnitude,
is to be abated, a beginning must be made somewhere;
and nowhere can it be made more appropriately.

THE. GREAT NEWCASTLE FIRE.---The late
fearful explosion and wide-spread devastating fire at Gates-
head and Newcastle, destroying property to the value of one mil-
lion, converting a large area of warehouses (filled with sulphur,
nitrate of soda, peat charcoal, and other highly combustible
stores), whole stacks of offices, houses, &c., into a perfect volcano
of fierce, concentrated, incinerating, and long-enduring furnace
heat, in which not only combustible things, but even bricks,
stones, and iron were burnt up and fused. Safes of the ordinary
kind, iron-doored strong rooms, were alike melted, torn asunder,
their contents charred and destroyed. But amongst the many
instances of preservation in this instance, and in the more recent
destructive fire at Manchester, THOMAS MILNER and SON
have pleasure in giving publicity to the following gratifying testi-
monial : Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Oct. 19, 1854.
Gentlemen,—We have great pleasure in stating that, whilst our
offices were completely destroyed and burnt down in the great fire
which, on the 6th instant, reduced a great many buildings in
Newcastle-upon-Tyne and Gateshead to ashes, two of your large
" holdfast" safes, in our offices, have been the means of pre-
serving our books, bills, and other valuable documents, although
these safes were exposed for about nine or ten hours to an im-
mense heat, and dug out of the ruins in a red-hot state. On
opening them we found our principal books and bills in a good
state of preservation. Some of the papers were singed and dis-
coloured, but we are happy to say they can be used for the main
purposes they were intended for. We feel it our duty to state
these facts, and will thank you to make us new safes to specifica-
tion.—We are, Gentlemen, yours truly,
A. LEIDENIAN and Co.
Messrs. Thomas Milner and Son.
GREAT FIRE IN LOWER KING-STREET.
Mew's-. Milner and Son.
Gentlemen,—ln the terrific and destructive fire which broke out
yesterday morning, on the premises at the back of Mr. Carr's
coach manufactory, in Lower King-street, and the large pack of
buildings of which our warehouse formed a part, the whole of
which were completely gutted. and everything therein destroyed,
with the exception of our books and papers, contained in the safe
we bought from your agent 'here, some few years age. This safe,
after being exposed to intense beat, fell during the conflagration
from the second storey to the basement, and was completely sur-
rounded by the burning mass. We beg to express the unqualified
gratification it affords us in being able to add to the numerous
testimonials to your valuable invention.nsihoaDllzbaengalacdo.to
afford any information to parties desirous of inquiring into the
facts herein stated.—We are, Gentlemen. respectfully yours.

BANKRUPTCY COURT.—Vugli Henry Ro
ss, ss
Commissio of Livenerpool,
linen-draper, came up on Saturday, beforer
Perry, for judgment on the question of certificate, which .had
-"been opposed on previous hearings on behalf of the assignees,
•on various grounds, including those of recklessly contracting
.debts, and that his trade expenses were fictitious and marked ,
with extravagance. His Honour, in giving judgment, having
referred to a previous bankruptcy no later than 1853, which
-terminated in a suspension of the certificate for twelve months,
said, after a careful consideration of the evidence and of -the
bankrupt's explanations, he could- not place faith in the bank-
rupt's statements as to his estate and effects, and therefore:the
allowance of the certificate must be altogether refused. During
:• the hearing of the case, Mr.' Bryce Smith, of Manchester, who
-appeared under a subpoena, obtained by the bankrupt, applied
•to the court for his'expenses,•but his Honour declibaned nto ac-
-cede to the request, on the -ground that being the krupt's
witness he should be paid by the bankrupt. It then trans-
-pired that, at the request of Mr. Smith's son, the bank-
rupt had given that person his I. 0. U. for the amount
former
of the
-expenses in attending the court.—John Strong, ly
owner of a steam-tug, at Liverpool, also came up for judgment
on the question of certificate. His Honour granted a third-
,class certificate, subject to suspension for six months from the
present time, protection to be granted at the expiration-of
lone month.
THE REGISTRAR-GENERALA RETURN.—The last quay-
Fiterly return of the Registrar-general is, on the whole, a very
favourable one. In the quarter.ending June 30, there were
1.48,454 marriages registered, being 1,935 fewer than in the
(.:corresponding quarter of the previous year, when the number
levas considerably above the averse. In the quarter ending
:September 30, 151,831 births were registered, being 99 lIIQTS
!than in the summer quarter of 1254, and the number of deaths
.was 87,934, a rate of mortality which is, comparatively, very
him The natural increase of population in England and
\Vales in the three months was therefore 66,900, and in the
nine months it has been 157,147. :The number of emigrants
in.the summer quarter was 11,698, nearly the same as in 1847,
but not one-half what it was in 185 e. Of English emigrants
the,number was 15,530, so that the net increase of popuation
in the quarter was 51,370. The health of the towns exhibits
some;improvement, but it is far fromibeincr what it ought to
be,antl. would be, if due attention were.paieto sanitary matters.
Liverpool and Manchester exhibit signeuf increased salubrity.
The .Registrar remarks, that "if all :the deaths of British
soldiers-in the Crimea during the last three months were
addattoAhe deaths in England, the sum would be less by
some 20,000 than the deaths registered in England during the
three summer months of 1854. More lives may be saved by
sanitary arrangements at home every -year than. have ever
perished abroad in the years of our greatoaVloss es in war."
Dock :CoankirrEE.—The weekly meeting was held on
Thursday, Mr. Charles Turner in the chair. The tender of
Messrs. G. H.. and A. Hickman, of the Elkton Brook Iron-
works, was accepted for about 500 tons of railway bars.—The
Stanley Dock warehouse sub-committee recommended that
the one bay .of the :north stack of the Stanley Dock ware-
houses be enclosed with sliding doors, at a cost,of L 350, ac-
cording to a plan produced. The recommendation was con-
firmed.—The sub-committee reported that it had become
necessary to appoint a warehouse keeper, a warehouse clerk,
and a ledger .eletk, for the south stack of warehouses at the
Stanley Dock, and they recommended that these appointments
should be made. Mr. Robinson said he thought the .com-
mittee would be ableto appoint persons out of their present
staff. The recommendation was confirmed.—A letter was
read from the surviwor, from which it appeared that the south
stack of the Stanley Dock warehouses would be quite.com-
plete within four weeks from the present time.—The Chairman
read a letter from the Rev. T. Leicester, incumbent of St.
Mary's, Kirkdale, asking the Dock Committee to continue
the annual grant of £5O for maintaining the services at the
&Impel at the north shore, established for the religious in-
etruction of labouring men employed in the north docks.
Mter some conversation the grant was directed to he
made. A letter from Messrs.. Jacot, Taylor, and Tipper,
requesting a permanent berth for loading their ships
in the American trade, was referred to the Harbour-master's
Committee. The subjoined letter from Mr. John Laird was
read ;—" Dear Sir,—ln Mr. Hartley's report on the proposed
amended plans for the completion of the Birkenhead Docks,
he alludes to my having attended with Mr. C. Wirer and Mr.
Hamilton, the request of the Dock Committee, to afford
information as to the requirements of large class steamers, &c.
When I attended the meeting I distinctly stated that any ex-
pression of opinion of mine in reference to the plans then
produced must only be considered a general one, and as having
reference to the following points :-Ist, that I approved the
principle adopted by Mr. Hartley of treating the great float as
a dock, with, as nearly as can be maintained, a permanent level;
the access to the great float being by means of a low-water
basin next the river, and of a half-tide basin between the low-
water basin and the float, 2nd, that if the Dock Com-
mittee decided that they would not provide a lock large
enough for the great steam-ship building by Messrs Scott
Russell, viz., about 750 feet long by 125 feet wide, I thought
they should have one lock 500 feet long, and 100 feet wide ;
one lock 400 feet long, and 55 feet wide; one for river craft
and coasters, 28 to 30 feet; and that the sills of all these locks
should be laid at a level of at least 12 feet below the old dock
sill. At the same Meeting, on a discussion arising as to the
deepening of the great float, I expressed a strong opinion that
the present entrance through Morpeth Dock might be greatly
improved, so as to secure a good revenue to the corporation
pending the execution of the other works, and that (in order
to prevent the stoppage of trade at Birkenhead) the lolltr
portion of the great float should on no account be laid dry,
but that the increased depth required should be obtained by
dredging, and not by excavation ; also that the whole of these
works might be proceeded with at once, as they do not require
a new act of Parlianient. As, from the discussion that took
place at the Dock Committee last Thursday, on the reading of
Mr. Hartley's report, I am represented (unintentionally, no
doubt) to have expressed my approbation of the altered plans
then submitted, although I have not yet seen them, you will
oblige me by laying this letter of explanation before the com-
mittee, at their next meeting.—The general business of the
committee then concluded,

sea sand, driven into heaps by the wind, and absolutely
useless. Being on the level of the sea; such deserts

immense—say a million of acres turned into clOver and

writer has seen a small sheltered corner reclaimed
which yielded £lO Per acre of annual rent ; and the
soil was originally no better, and in fact no other, than

PROVISIONS•
LIVERPOOL, Nov. 2.—There is a slightly firmer feeling
towards beef, and, though the sales for the week scarely reach the
average extent, there is a growing opinion that the stock now on
band will be all required before new arrives freely. For pork
there it a fair inquiry, and advanced prices are made for all
qualities. Unusual anxiety is felt as to the result of the govern-
ment contract to be taken on the 12th instant. Irish and home-
cured bacon are a shade lower, and the supplies increase. The
early shipments of American will, however, meet a ready sale.
At about last week's prices there is a moderate demand for lard.
Tlie market for cheese is rather inanimate, but more activity is
looked for shortly.
Nov. s.—There was a fair average business transacted in butter
last week, and owing to the small stock, moderate imports, and
the stiff prices paying currently in all the Irish markets. a slight
advance was obtained (in retail) for choice qualities, and :good
useful sorts commanded very full rates. Waterford and Dun.
