TO CORRESPONDENTS ViNcENytus' Fifth Letter is in type. It shall appear next week. Sr. JOHN'S CHURCH AND THE CHURCH-RATE.—We are con pelled, from want of space, to postpone some remarks on this subject till next week. OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT'S LETTER will, in future, be found in the second page of the Standard. In conse- quence of the new postal regulations we are compelled to make an alteration in our arrangements, so that our last page will be devoted to advertisements ; and the latest news, with our commercial article, will'be found in the fifth page.. NEW CHURCHES.—A paragraph in our Ecclesiastical Intel- ligence, quoted from The Guardian, states that "a first gift" of £9,000 has been placed at the disposal of the Rev. George Nugee, late senior curate of St. Paul's, Knightsbridge, towards the erection of a church, either in London or some other large town. A correspondent suggests that it should be devoted to the proposed new church in Liverpool for daily service, and that the most eligible site would be the large plot of ground adjoining St. George's Hall, on which St. John's Church now stands, but which might give way to a more sightly structure. at,- We shall be happy, at all times, to receive communlca- tions on subjecii of local or general interest. Letters addressed to the Editor should be accompanied by the real name and address of the writer, not for publication, but as a guarantee of good faith ; this is indispensably re- quisite in any statement of facts. The Editor wishes it to be understood that he does not hold himself responsible for the opinions or statements of his correspondents.

CHESHIRE AND WALES. THE BIRKENHEAD FERRY COMMITTEE have assured the Wirral agriculturists that so soon as the Liverpool authorities grant a proper landing place for produce, &c., the authorities at Birkenhead will establish a ferry for that purpose. OjTOk AND CLA.UGHTON HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY.— The first exhibition will take place in Birkenhead-park, on Thursday, and promises to be well attended. The society has been recently established with the especial view of encouraging amateur and cottage gardening, and there can be no doubt that the object of its promotion will be fully realised. BRITISH AND ARCHEOLOGICAL Ass seventh annual congress of this society commenced on Monday last, at Chepstow, a pretty little town, long famed for its ancient castle and picturesque neighbourhood, situated on the right bank of the river Wye, about two miles and a-half from its conflux with the Severn. The proceedings and excursions occupied the whole week. FIRE AT HOOTON.—Abbut eleven o'clock on Sunday morning week, a fire was discovered to have broken out in the engine house mid farm buildings of Mr. Jones, of Hooton. Considerable damage has been done to the machinery, which is of a very expensive character. It is believed that the fire was the work of incendiaries, as the engine had not been in operation for 12 or. 14 days. TEsnatoNrAm.—On Wednesday, a party of gentlemen resident in North Wales assembled at Bangor, for the purpose of presenting to Richard 'Morris Griffiths, Esq., of the National Prcrvincial Bank, in. that City, .a testi- monial of the respect and esteem they entertained towards him,. both iii his public and private capacity. It con- sisted of a service of plate of the value of nearly £2OO. AN INQUEST was held on Thursday, in Cleveland- street, Birkenhead, on the body of Mrs. Catherine Urmson, aged 63 years. The deceased resided in Cleve-. land-street, and on Tuesday suddenly became unwell ; insensibility immediately followed, and notwithstanding the exertions of Mr. Godden, surgeon, she continued in that state up to her death, which took place on the same night.

A R T H E VAR NA, AUGUST 13.—A fire, s d to be the work of incendiary Greeks, broke out here on Thursday night, and destroyed a number of houses appropriated as quarters for the troops, together with stores and magazines. Everything moveable, however, was fortunately saved, except the hay, wine, and some camp utensils. Several Greeks have been arrested, upon suspicion of being the authors of the conflagration. The cholera is on the de- cline ; but the Ist battalion of Rifles, and the 20th and 23rd regiments, all three in the Bosphorus, have lost men by the epidemic. Officers have gone home, invalided, from almost every regiment. Great preparations are making here for embarking the troops, which, it is said, will take place on the 20th. The bay is filled with vessels, 600 in number, and a fleet of large transports is lying at Baltschick. Great numbers of flat-bottomed boats, for landing troops and heavy guns, have also arrived..

The harshness and transparency of t paper is not to be found in it, while it highest finish, maintaining all the pliant e of the most dc ie straw the capable or Lll :y and toughness of the pure linen rags." - SITKA.—The alleged offer of the Emperor of Russia to dispose of Sitka to the Americans has drawn attention to that comparatively worthlets place, and inquiries are made with regard to its commercial capabilities. The matter, however, scarcely deserves attention, except as another in- stance of the small artifices to which the Czar is reduced. The territory of which Sitka, or New Archangel, consti- tutes the chief port, belongs to the Russian American Company, a body analogous to the Hudson's Bay Company, established under charter from the Emperor Paulin 1799, and consists of an archipelago and strip of land on the Pacific coast extending north from Queen Charlotte Island to a point called Mount St. Elias. The interior range of this strip is limited to 30 miles, where it is bounded by British North America, but its length is about 400 miles. Sitka, or New Archangel, is its only point of importance, and this simply from its being the spot where all the busi- ness of the company is transacted, including that in con- nection with its large continental possessions from Mount St. Elias to Behring's Straits. The port was founded in 1805, and has been maintained on a considerable scale and at a large expenditure, but if the Russian transactions of which it is now the centre were removed elsewhere it would not only possess no value, but would probably in- volve some expense to maintain it against the Indians. The town is built on the west side of a large island, called Baronoff Island, and the harbour is formed by a number of smaller ones. It is smooth and safe, and impregnable, from its natural defences, while the Russians have also fortified it with a battery which commands every part. It has likewise an arsenal where the company build and repair their vessels—the establishment comprising casting houses, and also boiler-makers, coopers, turners, and every kind of mechanic suitable for such work, even including the building of steam-vessels. The number of Russians at the place is believed, however, not to be more than a few hundred, although they have a bishop of the Orthodox Church with 15 priests, deacons, and followers, supported by the Emperor, and the aboriginal population is likewise extremely scanty. The trade of Sitka in 1842 was esti- mated at 10,000 fur seals, 1,000 sea otters, 12,000 beavers, 2,500 land otters, foxes, martens. &c., and 20,000 sea-horse teeth, but this is the export of the entire Russian possess- sions m North America, and would, of course, be transferred to such new port as they -might select after they had sold the territory in question. As to the place being likely to prove valuable to the Americanf for their whale fishery, there is nothing to warrant any such expectation, the whole coast being too forbidding and inhospitable to tempt the vessels in that trade to depart from their usual course of running down to the Sandwich Islands, were everything they can require is immediately available. The purchase, therefore,-would be a barren one, and as the parting with it would put the Russian American Company to serious inconvenience, the only motive of the Czar in the transac- tion would obviously lie in the hope of giving us a trouble- some neighbour. As he would, however, also bring this neighbour to himself, and the trade of his American pos- sessions is carried on in the most exclusive spirit—the natives not being allowed to traffic with strangers—it will remain for him to consider whether he may not ultimately realise from the affair another instance equal to those he has already experienced of the peril of clumsily plotting against others. TICE CONVICT ESTABLISIIMENT AT DORCHESTER.— The announcement, that in consequence of the outbreak of cholera in the Millbank Prison, the government had decided on fitting up the vacant barracks at Dorchester for the reception of the convicts, 'created no little excite- ment in that borough. As soon as the intelligence reached Dorchester that a number of government artificers had been sent down to prepare the place for the reception of the Millbank prisoners, the mayor (Mr. Geo. Andrews) proceeded by express to London, and in an interview with Viscount Palmerston at the Home-office, he strongly pro- tested in the name of the inhabitants against the rash resolve of the government in imperilling the lives of the residents by bringing a large body of men peculiarly liable to the disease from the scene of contagion. A meeting of the Town-council was also specially convened, and, after considerable discussion, it was resolved to forward a me- morial to Lord Palmerston, the Home Secretary, praying the government to reconsider their determination. The result of these measures was a statement from the Under- Secretary of State, to the effect that the subject com- plained of had already been maturely considered ; that a strong and pressing necessity existed for the removal of • the healthy portion of the convicts, who were entirely free from choleraic symptoms ; that, after full inquiry, the barracks outside the town of Dorchester had been deemed the most eligible, and that, as every precaution would be taken, no danger whatever could be apprehended. A. warm altercation ensued on this topic at a hastily sum- moned meeting of the corporation, when the alarmists were met by several gentlemen, one of whom observed that the convicts must be disposed of somewhere, and that they could not be sent to a more healthy locality ; even if the government should choose another spot, there would still be the same aversion to the proposal on the part of the inhabitants of the immediate district. He, therefore, thought it would be only humane and proper on their part to show a frank and ready acquiescence in the proposition and orders of the government. This appeared to be the feeling of the majority of the people of Dorchester, the hostility to the occupation of the barracks by the Mill- bank convicts being evidently more warmly manifested in the corporate body. After the arrival of the first batch of 300 prisoners per London and South-Western Railway, however, several families grew more excited, and at once prepared to leave the town; and at another meeting of the municipal authorities it was resolved to memorialise to preventp ore htehset er.hisis lordfiu affluence e thetto nhiesighltaulrinligigmimaneosrs oPfrPinocrde inAlgtobenrtAowuhseo :vheer,Mhilavlbeanhkespnritsootnaeurys unsuccessful.

Four thousand horses belonging to this corps have been sold. The Russians have evacuated Braila, Galatz, and Fos- chani. The Presse, under date Orsova, August 22, states that the cholera had broken out at Rustchuk. A band of Caucasian mountaineers, commanded by a son of Schamyl, have made a razzia into the province of Tiflis.

PROVISIONS. LIVERPOOL, Auo. 25.—An improved feeling has been imparted to the beef market by the advertisement of a very large government contract (equal to 32,000 tierces). for next season; the sales for the week, however, are only to about an average extent. Pork is also influenced by the government advertisement for equal to 49,000 tierces' and holders of a really fine article ask more money, but Western and New York repacked are again lower. Bacon is in fair demand, and for good qualities about former rates are maintained, but heated parcels must be quoted is to 2s lower. Shoulders move slowly at a decline of is per cwt. The demand for lard having fallen off the price has receded Is per cwt, without leading to activity. Our highest quotation is freely paid for chesse; middling and inferior do not go freely. Grease butter sells, slowly, at 56s to 595, as in quality. ArG. 28.—There was an excellent demand for all kinds of butter last week, and prices have advanced 2s per "since our last report.

GEORGE'S HALL.-At the Police-court, on Thursday, Mr. McGowan, clerk to the health committee, preferred a complaint against Mr. Mitchell, the owner of a piece of land adjoining the Queen's Hotel, Lime-street, under a clause in the improvemerit act, which rendered him liable to a penalty of £2. Mr. M`Gowan handed to the bench a plan of the property, and stated that Mr. Curchod, the proprietor of the Queen's Hotel, had embarked some six or seven thousand pounds, and it was to him a very serious matter, for a family re- cently residing with him had left and gone to a rival house in consequence of the nuisance which existed. A few weeks ago their attention had been called to some ground on the opposite side of the hotel belonging to Mr. Alder- man Bennett, and that gentleman had since come forward in the most liberal manner and built a wall round it, to comply with the wishes of the authorities. Mr. Mitchell, the proprietor of this ground, the subject of the present complaint, had been repeatedly applied to, but up to this time nothing had been done. In the year 1846 the cor- poration sold this piece of land to Mr. Mitchell, upon the agreement that he should build upon it within three years ; this he had also failed to comply with. He then called Mr. Fresh and Mr. Curchod to substantiate the statement he had advanced. For the defendant, it was stated that part of the land had been let to a Mr. Hope, who had been to the court that morning, and had pro- mised to build a wall eight feet high to the satisfaction of the authorities. The bench, upon this, adjourned the case for a week AUSTRALIAN SHIPPING.—During the week, five vessels of a tonnage of 3,923 tons have sailed for Australia, in- cluding a small steamer of 101 tons which sailed for Mel- e for the Australian ports, registering 26,119 tons. The fine ship Herald of the Morning, belonging to Messrs. Millers and Thompson's Golden Line, sailed on Wednesday for Mel- , with 250 passengers and a full cargo, consisting ly 1,600 tons of general merchandise. The next ached by this line is the celebrated ship which made her last passage home in Her fittings and general arrangements are well `The fine Australian clipper-ship Arabian to the White Star Line, sailed op ) be despat aturday week-for-Melbourne, with a full complement of passengers and a large and general cargo. She was towed out a little beyond Bardsey, and when left by the steamer was making good way under an ample spread of canvas. The Arabian will be followed by the first-rate new ship Sultana, one of the finest conveyances which has ever been provided in Liverpool for passengers to Australia. The ship is filling rapidly, nearly one-half of her being already engaged. She is to sail early in September. The following notices of Australian emigrants from Liverpool, spoken at sea, were posted in the Exchange newsroom on Wednesday :—July 11, Queen of the East, lat. 9 52 N., long. 27 23 W. ' • all well. June 6, Miles Barton, lat. 35 45 S., long. 11 58W. TRIAL TRIP OF THE NIIBIA.—On Wednesday, a number of gentlemen embarked in the magnificent new steamer Nubia, built by Mr. Laird, for the Peninsular and Oriental Company, in order to test her speed, and to see that her engines were in order and all smooth for working, and therefore there was no marking of particular time, but it was admitted on all hands that her performance was beyond even what was expected, and there can be no doubt that she will prove a fine and very fast sea-boat. Her trip was north about and home by the Lightship, a dis- tance of over 50 miles, and everything passed off with great satisfaction to all parties concerned. The Nubia is commanded by Captain Harris, an able and experienced seaman. She left on Thursday for Southampton, from whence she will be despatched on her first voyage for Alexandria and after that it is said she will be put on the Indian station of the company. When the vessel arrived back in the river there was an elegant dinner served up in the saloon,.to which the party who had gone on the trip, consisting of about 50 gentlemen, sat down. Capt. Harris was in the chair ; and, after spending an agreeable even- ing, the party returned to town about six o'clock by a tug steamer, having first given three hearty cheers for the Nubia, and wished her captain and herself every success. On her voyage to Southampton on Thursday she was left by the pilot in Holyhead Bay at half-past three the same afternoon, having accomplished. the distance against a iii/ L.CI LLUvu, .... • ••-o . ~, heavy head gale in five hours and a half—a most excellent run under any circumstances.

In Protestant England we find the number murders amounts to four in a million ; in Ireland it rises to eighteen ; in France the number rises to above forty ; in Austria it is above fifty, and in some portions of the Pope's dominions it reaches sixty-eight. In this com- parison we may readily perceive the full effects of Popery ; proportionately as it is undisturbed in its operations, crime increases. We are told, and told truly, that this in a great degree depends on the bad laws which prevail. No doubt this is in part true ! But what i! In Protestant England, with an enlightened press spm- ing its aegis over the land, such laws as those which give its chief virulence to Romish power cannot find a place.

architectural merit, and is an attempt to adopt the geo- metric decorated style of the middle ages to domestic pur- poses, retaining the necessarily compulsory essentials of a street frontage. The site, which is in many respects peculiar, and the area being confined, it presented unusual difficulties of arrangement, and caused much trouble in obtaining a sufficient quantity of light. The principal front presents several windows, filled with geometric tracery of a light and tasteful character; the principal staircase is surmounted by a tower whose upper stage is pierced with similar tracery. The tower is covered by a pyramidal roof of high pitch, which imparts character to the whole design. The upper portion of tke tower is in- tended to be used in aiding ventilation. The school buildings consist of three floors, the infant school occupying the ground floor ; the boys' school will be on the first, and the girls' school on the second or upper storey. Each of the schoolrooms has an area of 1,600 square feet, and will accommodate 200 children. Adjoining each school is a classroom and entrance-lobby, a portion of the latter being devoted to the reception of caps, bonnets, &c. The height of each of the two lower schools is 14 feet from floor to ceiling; the girls' school to have an open timbered roof, which is 11 feet high to the eaves. Access is obtained from Roscoe-street to each of the schools, so that the children will be kept out of the narrow side street almost entirely. An airing yard is provided for each school. Adjoining the schools is a residence for the master, to consist of three bedrooms, parlour, kitchen, scullery, &c., with a separate yard. The buildings are to be constructed of gray brick, with quoins, dressings, and wrought stonework of the local red sandstone. The architect for the edifices is Mr. T. D. Barry, of this town, and of Lincoln's Inn-fields, London. The contract for the building has been taken by Mr. Thomas Hughes, Brownlow-street, and the cost is esti- mated at £2,200. LIVERPOOL BOROUGH SESSIONS, (Before GILBERT HENDERSON, Esquire, Recorder.) YESTERDAY, the intermediate sessions for 'the borough were opened in the criminal court, at the old Sessions House, Chapel-street. The calendar was unusually light, there being only 26 cases, and 38 prisoners, of whom 16 could neither read nor write ; 4 could only read ; 23 could read and write imperfectly; and '1 could read and write well. Two of the prisoners (one a servant girl) were under 16 years 'of age ; eleven were older than 16 and younger than 21; and the remainder were of various ages up to 53. The following gentlemen were sworn upon the GILLED :ray Mr. Thos. Brittain Forwood, broker, foreman. Mr. Joseph Armstrong, jun., merchant. • Mr. James Henry Butter, merchant. Mr. Thomas Boyd, merchant. Mr. Francis lioult, merchant. Mr. John Carmichael, merchant. Mr. William Carson, merchant, Mr. Richard Derbyshire, merchant. Mr. Henry Glynn, broker. Mr. Robert Girvin. merchant. • r Mr. Michael Harnett, corn-broker. Mr. James Howell, broker. Mr. John Herd, corn merchant. Mr. Charlton Robert Hall, wine broker. Mr. Edward Hatton, anchor-smith. Mr. Charles Melhuishi, merchant. Mr. Richard Andrew Mould, wine merchant. Mr. John Blayds Molyneux, broker. Mr. John George Woodhouse, wine merchant. The proclamation against vice and immorality having been read, the Recorder proceeded to deliver the charge : Gentlemen of the Grand Jury, said he, when parliament rises, the attention of the General Quarter Session is natu- rally called to those enactments by which its labours are to be guided in the administration of justice. In looking at the recent acts, I find one for the suppression of gaming houses, but I am happy to believe that the habits of this community render the operation of such an act of little consequence here. I think it is only at particular times, during the races, that such practices prevail to any extent in this town. With the assistance of this, statute the magistrates will be enabled to put down auy at- tempt of that description. There is, also, an Act to extend, beyond the district of the metropolitan police, the ,provision against the use of dogs for drawing trucks or carts. Here, again, it is to the credit of the' people of Liverpool, that such practices have not prevailed in this town. There is, further, an Act which has in view the extension of the benefits which hare arisen from abridging the hours for selling distilled and fermented liquors on Sun- days. It has been consideredthat this had a beneficial effect, and that further restriction will.prove useful. I hope it may be so. Of course it ought to be the duty of the magistrates to enforce this law ; and the penalties are extremely rigo- rous, because for each separate infringement of, its provi- sions the beerhouse-keeper is liable to a penalty of £5. Undoubtedly, anything that could lesson the amount of drunkenness is particularly desirable in this town. I find that in the course of last year 5,250 persons were appre- hended in Liverpool. as 'being drunk and disorderly, and 4,185, as being drunk and incapable of taking care of themselves. Now, this is quite sufficient to show how greatly the offence of drunkenness prevails in this town ; and here I take the opportunity of saying how much I think the public are indebted to the discretion with which the magistrates have recently exercised their powers of licensing fresh public-houses. There was a time in the history of this town when, as it seems to me, too great a latitude was used in that department, and the consequence was that a greater number of public-houses beyond what was usual were licensed ; and to this circumstance may be attributed a considerable portion of the drunkenness which prevails iu the town. The magistrates, however, have of late been more sparing in the exercise of their licensing powers. Last year, only fifteen new public- houses were licensed, and, as seven were forfeited, the increased number of additional licenses was in reality only eight. Now, of .course lam quite aware that it is not to the enactment of any law, so much as to an improvement in the moral feeling and intelligence and habits of the people, that we must look for amendment in this respect. But still the law may assist; and Ido not think that efforts are to be neglected with reference to the discreet exercise of the licensing power. Therefore, I fully admit that we cannot make people sober by act of parliament. Yet, I still think that the provisions of the enactment may be exercised with beneficial effect in pre- venting drunkenness. I hope, therefore, that the same course will be persevered in, and that, though the magis- trates may think fit to grant some licenses to districts which an increasing population may require, they will still recollect that public-houses are already far too numerous in the older districts, and that nothing more will be done than the necessities of the public war- rant. Gentlemen, there is also an act recently passed for the purpose of bringing into more extensive use the reformatory schools for youthful offenders. It is impos- sible to touch this topic without a pasting tribute to the excellent magistrate who was the first to move in the subject; and without stating that the petition of the Liverpool justices, drawn up by him, has from the first to the last been one of the most important grounds on which this measure has been founded. The scheme of this act is that schools should be established for young offenders by voluntary subscription ; that every such school: should be visited and examined by an inspector of prisons, whose proxince it should be to report upon its condition and regulations ; that the Home Secretary should then cer- tify -the school as useful and efficient ; and that a magistrate or judge of any court may, on conviction of any offender under sixteen years old, order him or her to be sent to such a reformatory school for a period of from two to five ygars ; and the: Treasury mavarrange the expenses for such maintenance and education. But the school must be .named under the direction of the magistrate or the court; and it must he ascertained beforehand that the directors are willing to receive the offender. Now, you will ,observe that this act is rather preparatory, than instance, is it can best once acted upon. This court, for is in no condition to act upon this statute : there is no school established; and there is no school of which the Home Secretary has approved, and to which the directors have empowered me to send persons committed here. It is, therefore, clear that much must be done by voluntary efforts before this system can be carried into more general elect. For my part, I think it would supply a want that is very deeply felt; but at the same time, I do think that such provisions must be very carefully exercised ; and that no eneouragesnent should be given to children, to take them from that natural support which they should find in their parents. However, gentlemen, I mention the state of the law to show that, although the legislature has declared its willingness to act upon such a system, we still require the voluntary efforts of humane persons to obtain power for carrying this design into effect. The only case, gentlemen, to come before you, that requires any special direction from me, is one of housebreaking. In this particular case entry into the house was effected by lifting up the grid of the coal-cella.r, There was a fasten- ing to the grid, but it was out of order, and so it was only necessary to lift up the grid, for a person to make his entry into the house. But I should tell you that in a similar case that occurred, the judges were equally divided in the opinion whether an entry so effected was a breaking into the house or not. But the case, in this instance, does not' stop here ; because you will find that, having so got into the house, the offender broke into a room in the house. Yoa will find that the staple to the lock was forced out of the door, which had been secured, and so opened ; and if you find this to have been so, you may properly find a verdict for housebreaking, because it is not essential that it should be the outside-door—the breaking of any inside-door is sufficient to constitute the offence as defined by the law. Therefore, if you find that the inside-door in this house was broken, you may safely find a bill for housebreaking. The number of the cases in the caledar is but small-44,-- small even for the length of period since last sessions ; but nevertheless I am by no means sure that that is a clear ndication that the town is in a healthy state in respect to crime. I might be led into a great mistake by taking the state of the calendar as a guide, for, though I don't find a single case of pocket picking, I do not suppose the offence has ceased to operate here; and, though I do not find a single case of stealing from ships and from the docks, I cannot, therefore, conclude that such an offence has ceased to 114141 AMit Ulf P 494444 ceitckst toia, Dif9a

MESSRS. MOSELY DENTISTS, 93, BOLD-STREET, LIVERPOOL LONDON RESIDENCES 21, NEW BOND-STREET, AND 30, BERNERS-STREET, OXFORD-STREET NOTICE, THE LONDON and NORTH-WESTERN TEA COMPANY have opened PREMISES in OLD POSTOFFICE-PLACE, CIIURCH-STREET. LIVERPOOL, for the SALE of TEA in retail quantities. The Company have been stimulated in their enterprise by the disposition of Retail Dealers to deprive the Public of the benefit of the late Reductions in the Duty. Although every means of Advertising has been resorted to in announcing a "Reduction in Tea Duties," and "A fur- ther Reduction of 4d. per 1b.," yet when Customers have claimed the benefit of such Reduction, either in Price or Quality, they have been met with mere evasion, or a con- temptible subterfuge of words. Nearly Seventy Million Pounds of Tea are Annually Im- ported into this Country. If we contemplate this immense consumption, and how much Tea contributes to comfort and morality of the masses, we must see how necessary it was for the Government to reduce the late enormous Duty upon it. But, SHOULD DEALERS or CONSUMERS HAVE THE BENEFIT OF THIS REDUCTION ? The fiscal restrictions of Government have not been more damaging to the Tea Trade than the dishonest system of Dealers, who maintain their exorbitant Profits by reducing the Quality whenever they are compelled to reduce the Price. The fragrance so abundant in good Tea has been superseded by Dealers with artificially-flavoured kinds. Such doctored Tea can in no wise possess that exhilarating and restorative influence upon the animal system so characteristic of genuine sorts, is fine Congous and Souchongs. It was not the mere taste and colour of its infusion that first caused Tea to be so much esteemed in this country, or that could make it sell for 60s. per lb., its price in England in 1666. The Lost:ow( and NORTH-WESTERN COMPANY Wish to en. courage the Import and Consumption of FINE SOUCHONGS and FINE CONGOUS ; and while their Stock will comprise very carefully-selected Teas of every description, their CON. GO'US and SOUCHONGS will be found superior to any now selling. The Company, nevertheless, offer them at the following Low Scale of Prices : GOOD CONGOU 2s. 6d. per lb. VERY STRONG FINE-FLAVOURED} CONGOU 3s. Od. „ GOOD SOUCHONG 3s. 4d. „ FING SOUCHONG 3s. ad. „ FINEST KAESOW 3s. 10d. ~ At equally Low Prices the following Sorts will be Sold : GREENS.— Gunpowder, Imperial, Hyson, Hysonskin, Young Hyson, Ouchain, Twankay, &c. BLACKS.—Pekoe, Orange Pekoe, Flowery Pekoe, Scented Orange Pekoe, Caper, Scented Caper, Ning Yong, Kaesow, Oolong, Hong Muey, Campoi, Assam, &c. The Company's Teas will be found far superior to any before Sold. The PUBLIC will NOW have the FULL BENEFIT of the ALTERATIONS in the TEA DUTY. TERMS :—Nett Cash. Orders from the Country, if 10s. and upwards, will be carefully executed, promptly dispatched, and forwarded (carriage free), if accompanied by a remittance for payment.

" Gentlemen,—l have great pleasure in adding my testi- mony to the value of your Fireproof Safes. " Last Monday night my house, warehouse, and premises were unfortunately burned down. The lire raged very fear- fully for about two hours, and, owing to the great scarcity of water, the whole of my premises and stock were consumed. " The Safe I purchased of you had a most severe test, in consequence of a barrel of brimstone standing close to it, and melting with the heat of the fire, the burning lava running all over and under the safe, which greatly added to the intensity of the heat. It remained in that position about four hours, and when with great difficulty it was got out of the fire and opened, I found my books and papers all uninjured. , You are at liberty to make what use you please of this information. "I am, Gentlemen, yours respectfully, " WM. WALKER, " Messrs. Thos. Milner and Son, " 47A, Moorgate-street, London." UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT TO BLOW-UP MILNERS' " HOLDFAST" SAFE, AT BRISTOL.

They were well supplied with picklocks, crowbars, &c., &c., which are now in possession of the police, but the safe was too strong for all their efforts.

FRIDAY. STOPPING A HIGIIW.S.T.—The defence of the above -action came on this morning, and was continued for a great part of the day. It was contended that the road which was the subject of dispute was never a public tho- roughfare, and evidence in support of this was offered. The jury returned a verdict for the prosecution, the abdi- cation of the road being in 1849. DAMAGES FOR AN AssirLT.—Dowland v. Cleland.— This was an action to recover damages for an assault. The indictment charged the defendant with assaulting, beat- ing, and wounding ; to which he pleaded not guilty, and that he assaulted the plaintiff in self-defence. It was stated that William Dowlaiad, the plaintiff, who had been in the army, was an old man, with a large family. Lat- terly, he had been employed as an agent at the Liverpool -Gas-light Company's yard,. in Atholl-street. The defen- dant, William. Cleland, was a foreman at these works. Notice to leave was given to the plaintiff, but before the notice had expired he was summarily dismissed. The plaintiff went, along with his boy, to the defendant, to claim wages for the unexpired term. A quarrel ensued, as the defendant was proceeding home, followed by the plaintiff, which resulted in the latter being struck vio- lently over his mouth and over his head, in Eccleston- street, which so injured him that he had been under medical treatment, and disabled for some time. It was elicited that the plaintiff had used very irritating language to the defendant, and that, in the struggle, he fell under- most on the road, knocking his head violently. Verdict for the defendant. The court then rose about half-past six SECOND COURT. (Before Mr. Baron Platt.) His Lordship having disposed of all the criminal busi- ness on the previous evening took his seat this morning, at nine o'clock, in the Crown Court, and proceeded to the disposal of civil causes. ACTION or OVERPAYMENT.—Brackenridge v. Smith.— Th is was an action for the recovery of £3l 3s. 10d. The plaintiff, is one of the firm of Brackenridge and Gould, corn merchants, of this town, and the defendant is an extensive corn dealer, at Todinorden, of the firm of R. and E. Smith. The case originated in an alleged mistake. On Tuesday, March 28th, Mr. Smith attended the Liverpool corn market, having two purses in his pockets—one containing notes to the amount of £l7O, the other containing £2lO in gold. Owing the plaintiff £202 Bs., the defendant handed him the purse of gold, saying it contained £l7O, and he would call after market and settle the remainder. Mr. Bracken- ridge afterwards said the settlement would do on Thurs- day. Upon arriving at home, the defendant discovered his mistake and wrote. The money had been entered in Mr. Brackenridge's books as £170; hence the dispute and action.—Verdict for the defendant. lioRSE CASE.—Anger v. Carlton.—This was an action to recover £2OO, the price of three horses sold by the plaintiff, a horse dealer, to Robert Carlton, gentleman, also of this town. It appeared that, in May last, the de- fendant went to Lucas's Repository, where the plaintiff, who dealt extensively in horses, had some for sale. He arranged to buy a bay horse and a bay mare, value £lso— latter intended for a lady. A memorandum was made to that effect by Mr. Lucas, who had the horses put in loose boxes, and taken particular care of, by the direction of Mr. Carlton. Afterwards the defendant bought a third horse for £5O, though he still left them at Mr. Lucas's livery stable, and ordered saddlery and horse clothing from Mr. Mercer, and also had one of the horses broken in. A relative of the defendant's, Mr. Cruikshank, had, on several occasions, ridden one of the horses out. The defendant afterwards repudiated the bargains ; hence this action. The defence set up was, that the defendant, at the time in question, was not in a fit state to make a bargain—that he was not sober.—Verdict for the paiutiff. —His Lordship gave the defendant liberty to move that there was no evidence to go before a jury to prove an acceptance. IMPORTANT TO TUE SIIIPPING INTEREST.—STEELE V. SCROMBERG.—This was an action brought by the plain- tiff, Mr. James Steele, shipowner, of this town, against Captain Schomberg, the government emigration officer, of this port, to recover compensation in damages for loss sustained arising out of the circumstances detailed below. Mr. Steele, the plaintiff, in 1853 became the purchaser of the ship Miltiades, of 674 tons, while afloat, and on her passage here from Callao, with guano. On her arrival, the plaintiff went on board the vessel, and she drew 18 feet 6 inches of water aft, and 18 feet 3 inches forward. Mr. M`Keverigan, shipbuilder, was engaged to survey the vessel, and his report was satisfactory. Plaintiff fitted her up as a passenger ship, and gave notice thereof to defen- dant. She was also examined when in the graving dock, and on the 17th October measured off, allowing her 20 cabin and 80 between-deck passengers. The work of getting the ship ready went on till December ; and on the 7th the plaintiff, being in London, received a telegraphic message requesting his return. He did so ; and on the morning of the Bth waited upon Captain Schomberg, who expressed regret on account of his being obliged to stop the vessel, in consequence of her being 18 inches too deep. Plaintiff asked defendant by what rule he had arrived at that conclusion ? He replied, by no rule, but by a sailor's eye. Plaintiff replied, that commercial men had good commercial rules on these matters ; and Capt. Schomberg then said that, to satisfy Mr. Steele, he would call a survey of the ship by his own officers, which he did, and they took the draft of water, and confirmed the defen- dant's statement. On a subsequent interview with defen- dant, the plaintiff said he would leave the matter to the decision of any number of commercial men, and if they, or any one of them, said the ship was too deep, he would lighten her. He declined, and a portion of the cargo—not prohibited articles—was discharged, the attendant ex- penses upon the whole affair being laid at £1,048 17s. 11d. It was contended that the sections of the passenger act gave the defendant no such power as he had thus exel- cised.—For the defence it was argued that Capt. Schom- berg was not liable to this action, his office being judicial and not ministerial. The passenger act empowered him to exercise his own judgment in regard to passenger ships. —His Lordship thought that the defendant was entitled to a verdict, so far as that he was protected by act of par- liament ; but suggested that one of the jury should decide what compensation, if any, should be made. This was agreed to, and Mr. Bernard Hall was named. His Lord- ship will certify, subject to appeal to the court above. The court rose shortly after six.

VRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH.—These Pills are particularly efficacious for Stomach Coughs, Colds, Agues, Shortness of Breath, and, if taken after too free an indulgence at table, they quickly restore the system to its natural state of repose. They are an excellent aperient, create appetite, relieve languor, and invigorate the spirits. " For upwards of nine years (writes Mr. Thomas Province, of Winchmore Hill, Middlesex,) I have experienced the effi- cacy of this excellent Medicine. I had long previously been afflicted with headache and indigestion; but a friend having induced me to make a trial of Frampton's Pills, I now inform you that a few doses gave me great relief ; and durin,, this long period of time I have taken them in preference toel any other medicine; and I have the happiness of saying that I never had a better state of health, which I attribute to Frampton's Pills. I beg further to add, that this medicine is in general use by my family, and we know of nothing to equal it." Persons of a Full Habit, who are subject to Head-ache, Giddiness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, arising from too great a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be with- out them, as many dangerous symptoms will be entirely carried off by their immediate use. For Females, these Pills are truly excellent, removing all obstructions, the distressing Head-ache so very prevalent with the sex; Depression of Spirits, Dulness of Sight, Nervous Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and Sallowness of the Skin, and give a healthy and juvenile bloom to the complexion. To Mothers they are confidently recommended as the best medicine that can be taken during pregnancy ' • and for children of all ages they are unequalled. As a pleasant, safe, and easy Aperient, they unite the recommendation of a mild operation with the most tn suc- cessful strengtheffect.of By y the patient, regulating theyth e bdeoeseem, e according suitable o etrli every ve agen d, case, in either sex, that can be required. opnr. e box.

DR. HAHN, late Sur- geon, Aurist, and Physician in ordinary to the Grand Duke of Baden, feels it his duty to announce to persons suffering from Deafness, however long standing, and without regard to the age of the Patient, that he will guarantee their immediate and permanent restoration to Hearing, without any surgical or other painful operation. The most obstinate Cases, how- ever long standing, cured in one month ! The majority in less than a week ! Recent Cases instantaneously ! Atten- dance daily at the Dispensary, Nottingham : fee one guinea, payable on completion of the cure. Patients at a distance may state their case by letter, enclosing one-third the fee (75.), immediately on receipt of which the remedy. with full instructions, will be forwarded, post free, to any address, the remainder (145.) to be paid in one month after the cure is completed. All communications, by ,post, addressed to CARL HAHN, M.D., at the Dispensary, Nottingham, will receive prompt attention. SUFFERERS FROM CHRONIC RHEUMA- TISM AND RHRUMATIC GOUT are respectfully informed that there is scarcely any form of that acute disease, however malignant. which will not immediately yield to the remedy of PROFESSOR HAHN, late PHYSICIAN to the GRAND DUKE OF BADEN, and formerly to the KING OF WURTEMBURG. DR. HAHN, although residing in this country since 1849, has hitherto abstained from calling public attention to this remedy (which is the result of profound pathological study and intense chemical research), apprehensive that he might be classed amongst the numerous pretenders of the day ; having, however, during the past year received a number of highly satisfactory testimonials from noblemen and others, with permission in some cases to refer to them, he is induced to offer the remedy to the community, and will forward the prescription, with all necessary instructions as to regimen, diet, &c., on receipt of the fee of 10s., by postolfice order, payable to CARL HAHN, M.D., Dispensary, Nottingham. - Reference is permitted to the following Gentlemen, who have been permanently cured of Rheumatic Gout, in its most distressing form :—Robert Colclough. Esq., Newfield Hall, Uttoxetor, Staffordshire; W. D. Ludlam, Esq., Wingfield Park, near Alfreton, Derbyshire; Captain Gresham, Hunslet Hall, Leeds. Copies of testimonials from the Archbishop of Dublin; the Mayor of Bristol ; Sir George Sitwell, Bart., Reinshaw Hall, Derbyshire; T. Dalby, Esq., Toxteth-park, Liverpool; the Mayor of Southampton ; Dr. Clarke ; Dr. Ferguson ; and the principal Medical Gentlemen in the Mid- land Counties ; from nine Noblemen, and from upwards of thirty Members of the present House of Commons, will be sent on application. We are happy to hear that Professor lIA 11,N, whose recent lectures to the students at Guy's, on DEAFNESS, its causet and cure, gave such complete Satisfaction, is preparing for the faculty a translation of his work on Gout, published as Manheirn, in 1848.--Londou Medical Gazette. I arti constrained, however, to admit, that as a specific ap-. si.lieable. to every form of Gout, none has yet been discove;f,d of equal potency to that of Dr. HAHN, of ;,\lttnlieun.i.,.,m., Ilarvey's .Practice of Physic, page 05% FLOOR-CLOTH WAREHOUSE, ESTABLISHED 183 3 , ADELPIII-HOUSE, 21, BOLD-STREET, LIVERPOOL GEO.

MUSIC AND THE DRAMA PIIILIIA.B.SIONIC SOCIETY'S Cowczur.—The fifth sub- scription concert for the season took place in the Philhar- monic-hall, on Friday evening. The celebrity of the vocalists whose names appeared in the advertisements, as contributors to the promised musical treat, ensured a large attendance, and on Friday evening the magnificent hall was filled by such an array of beauty and fashion as is but rarely assembled on such occasions. The vocalists advertised were Mad'lle Sophie Cruvelli, Mad'lle Marai, and Mad'lle Albini ; together with Signers Luchesi, Tag- liafico, Polonini, and Tamberlik ; Signor Li Calzi to pre- side at the pianoforte. On entering the corridors leading to the hall, the gathering audience was apprised that. through severe indisposition, Mad'lle Cruvelli would not be able to appear ; the committee offering such ex- pressions of regret for the inevitable disappointment as the circumstances called for : so far all was right. Programmes continued to be sold at the doors ; and on assuming their seats the auditory were furnished with copies of an amended programme, which did not, however, contain the words of the pieces substituted for those which were to be changed. This, though not an important, was still a source of additional disappointment. The concert commenced by the orchestra performing Auber's splendid overture to " Masaniello," which was executed with much precision and telling effect, the instrumentation being steady and expressive. The piece standing next in the amended programme, as in the original one, was Bellini's aria from "Beatrice," by Mad'lle Marai, which, however, was not performed at this time, nor did our anxious en- deavour to do so enable us to discover its performance during the evening. The second piece given was the torzetto, " Qual volutta," from Verdi's " Don Juan," which was sung in good style, by Mad'lle Marai and Signors Tamberlik and Tagliafico. The third piece was Meyerbeer's recitative and aria, from " L'etoile du Nord," "Oh ! jours heureux," which was sung with spirit and appropriate feeling, by Signor Tagliafico, who also did duty, for Signor Polonini, at subsequent periods of the evening. The unexecuted piece standing nearest to this, on the amended programme, was a madrigal, and for the purpose of singing this the choir had risen and all but commenced, when, lo! in stepped Signor Tamberlik, to the surprise of the conductor, the amazement of the madrigal singers, and the astonishment of the audience, and he sang a brilliantly executed aria from Rossini. Such was the order, or rather disorder, in which the first part of the performance was gone through, the perplexing nature of its disirrangement being visible in the apathetic coldness and puzzled attempts at disentanglement evinced by the audience, who had their attention distracted from the charming execution of the artistes by vain attempts to unravel the pot pourri style of its arrangement. The inhabitants of this town and neighbourhood are less or more a commercial people, and are partial to fidelity in the execution of announced arrangements—they may over- look departures from the order of a concert programme which they would not tolerate in regard to a bill of lading ; but they are not necessarily disposed to be quite tolerant of such liberties being taken with it as reduces its order to a matter of chance medley, and imposes on them the necessity of submittin garies of even musical public favourites to the vai The libera f least amount of patronage bestowed in this instance, deserved to be met: in a spirit of corresponding respect ; which was not well displayed in the fast and loose pro- ceedings in the instances referred to. If prima donnas, to remind them of their merely mortal origin, must be subject to indispositions, it does not follow that the widest possible liberties may therefore be taken with all the other arrangements, including the unaccounted for absence of some of the corps. In the second part of the concert the order of the second programme was adhered to, and the effect of this observance of propriety was speedily manifested in more marked attention and higher appreciation of the performances. The terzetto, "Guai se to sfugge," from Donizetti's "Lucretia Borgia," was beau- tifully sung by Mad'lle 3farai, Signor Tamberlik, and Tagliafico, although in the programme the part suatained by the latter was set down to Signor Polonini. In the Valse, by Ricci, Marai acquitted herself like a charming natural vocalist and an accomplished musician. She sang with great spirit and sweetness, and was re- warded by an enthusiastic and well-deserved encore, in answer to which she sang, with even greater beauty than before. Signors Tamberlik and Tagliafico sang Auber's duet, " Sara, it morir," from " 3fasaniello," in splendid style ; the exquisite vocalisation stamping each of these gentlemen as a highly cultivated musician and an able singer. In Donizetti's charming aria, " Maria di Bohan," 3fad'lle Albini displayed fine expression and much musical fire. Her tones are clear, thrilling, and sweet as the notes of a silver trumpet, and melting as the wild strains of the Eolian harp. Her melodious execution electrified the audience, and secured for the fair cantatrice a triumphant encore. Other pieces were given in a manner eliciting and deserving strong marks of approbation ; and, notwith- standing the unpromising nature of its opening, the con- cert afforded obvious delight to the highly-intelligent, and, we had almost said, indulgent audience. AT THIS THEATRE-ROYAL, the same able company of melo-dramatic histriones, of whom we have repeatedly spoken in favourable terms, have continued their per- formances during the past week, concluding their series on Saturday evening. They have produced and performed several novelties since their recent engagement com- menced, including a burlesque on the favourite opera of " Norma;" and an English version of "La Joie fait Peur," a charming French comedietta, entitled " Hopes and Fears." Both have been exceedingly well performed. This house will remain closed for a short period, and will be re-opened for the performance of a splendid series of Italian grand operas, which are to be given in a style of great completeness and efficiency. AT THE ROYAL AMPRITURATRE, Mr. T. Lyons, Mr. B. Baker, and Miss Fanny Baker have been lending their valuable aid in maintaining the dramatic reputation of the establishment; and have been successful in imparting intellectual gratification to numerous admirers. Variety combined with talent are the means by which the lessee seeks to uphold the character of this theatre, and he has been eminently successful in combining those requisites for securing popular favour. TUESDAY 2110.R1VING, AUG. 29, 1854 -- - _ WHAT IS A CONSERVATIVE ? POLITICAL parties have been in so much con- fusion during the last few years, that the public may well be excused for feeling considerable doubts on the subject, and this may account for the extra- ordinary results of many elections, and the little confidence in the professions and promises of public men. How many instances have been found, since the last general election, of men, returned to Par- liament as Conservatives, voting against the late Administration and lending their aid to measures of an avowedly liberalising tendency, without any apparent consciousness that they were violating all their previous professions ; while the constituent body, in despair of there being any distinctive principles to maintain, have been actuated by other considerations than those of party, and allowed themselves to be influenced by local and personal interests ! This conglomeration of the elements of political warfare has proved successful only to Liberalism, and is the true secret of the means by which the Coalition Ministry have been enabled to maintain themselves so long in place these circumstances, it may not be disadvantageous to call public attention to those points of distinc- tion, which it is the object of Liberalism the public should speedily forget. Perhaps the briefest and most comprehensive answer to the question with which we have headed this article, would be to say, that a Conservative is a gentleman in the true sense of the word, having no other object than the welfare of the country, and seeking to accomplish this only by the most honourable means. Unlike his opponent, who acts upon the dangerous doc- trine that the end justifies the means, the true Conservative has too much confidence in the good- ness of the cause in which he is embarked to stoop to unworthy actions in order to achieve success. The Liberal, on the other hand, has few scruples, and is content to be dragged through the mire, so long as he can obtain an ephemeral popularity and share in the coveted advantages of plgce and pay. Let us compare the course pursued by the Earl of DERBY—when a very small majority opposed the ex- perimental 'budget of the CHANCELLOR of the Ex- CHEQUER-with that of the present Ministry, who have experienced a series of far more humiliating de- feats, and yet still cling to office with a persevering Under peculiar to Whiggery. If virtue be its own reward, the Conservatives have far the most reason to be satisfied with their position ; standing, as they do, the living evidences that the age of chivalry is not past ; but unfortunately the country suffers while Liberalism enjoys its triumph, and as the choice of a Ministry depends upon the voice of the electors, it is more than ever necessary that the public should clearly understand the real question at issue. Every man who can read must be familiar with the important fact, that the British Constitution is the growth of ages, through which, by slow and imperceptible degrees, it has become the envy of the world, securing to British subjects a greater amount of practical liberty than is enjoyed by any other nation. It is to the main- tenance of the institutions of Church and State, under which, by the blessing of Providence, this country has so signally flourished, that the atten- tion of Conservatives is specially directed, and while they are not averse to improvement, so long as the necessity is palpable, their great object is to preserve that which has been proved to be good, until the advantage of a change has become self- evident. The Liberal, on the contrary, acts from motives diametrically the reverse. It is sufficient for him that an institution has the stamp of age to excite an immediate demand for its abrogation, without any other motive than the love of change, and without the most remote prospect of deriving any advantage. As the Constitution, like the oak, has reached its maturity by gradual progress, so the Conservative, in the same prudent manner, would adopt its provisions to each change of cir- cumstances ; but the Radical, with ruthless hand, would apply the axe to the root, and in the full- blown insolence which prefers modern intelligence to the experience of ages, destroy the whole fabric in order to substitute for it a parchment constitu- tion as ephemeral as 'the party majority which gave it birth. The wisdom of the Whigs devised a scheme of Parliamentary Reform which was to heal all political differences, but scarcely had one Parliament, elected by its means, tested the expe- riment, than its author was taunted as " Finality Jourr," because he objected to further alteration. Little more than twenty years have elapsed, the dream of finality is over, and Lord JOHN is now in a feverish state of excitement to make another change in the representative system, as sweeping as the one which he declared to be a final settle- ment of the question ; so that Liberalism is but a succession of steps to extend democracy, until, every support being removed from the monarchy, it may at last fall a victim to Radical ambition. Every measure of pretended improvement will be found Pf-the same destructive character, aiming only .at tenficit 1 ange without regard to consequences, unsettling all things, and rendering every man's position and property insecure. Whatever may be the boast of professing Liberals as to their popularity, it must be evident that they enjoy very little public confi- dence, because no man feels secure in the perma- nence of the laws ; and it is owing simply to the fact of the known inability of the present Adminis- tration to carry any important measure through Parliament, and their notorious disagreement upon every subject of public policy, that our commerce has flourished and the revenue been maintained under their disgraceful rule. The Conservative has, however, a clear and distinct line of actio before him, and his duty is the reform of proved abuses, so as to strengthen without impairing the fabric. Preservation is the rule, and change the exception ; experiments with national interests are at all times dangerous, and therefore the first con- deration is not so much to make an alteration as to prove the necessity for it, and so to effect it as to interfere as little as possible with present ad- vantages. As Lord DERBY so well expressed it in his declaration of principles on taking office, ti true object of a Conservative is "the safety honour and welfare of our Sovereign and her dominions. THE RECENT COURTS MARTIAL. AT this dull season of the year, when it is diffi- cult to excite public attention to anything more serious than a boat-race, the recent courts martial which have been held at Windsor have occurred most opportunely, not only to afford a topic for comment, but also to obtain that attention which they deserve. Had the inquiry taken place at an earlier period of the year, it is possible that it might have given way to discussions about the Reform Bill, or the proposals for new taxes to carry on *he war ; but, fortunately, the " gentle- manly" conduct of the officers of the 46th Regi- ment did not reach its culminating point until the public had opportunity of leisure to listen to the details, and we may now expect that the proceed- ings will not have been taken in vain. It has rarely been the case that so much unanimity of opinion has been shown on any question in which personal interests are involved ; for, almost without an exception, the Press has joined in condemnation of the prosecutor or persecutors of Lieut. PERRY, and demanded a remedy for the abuses alleged in a voice which cannot be mistaken. Nor is this the sole result, for the exposures which have taken place necessarily lead to the inquiry whether similar practices are pursued by the officers of other regiments, and though they may not form the subjects for a court martial, it will be the duty of the COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF to take such pre- cautions as will effectually prevent their repetition. Had the treatment of which Lieut. PERRY com- plains been confined to the practical jokes of the junior officers, the annoyance, however disagreeable, might have been attributed to the exuberance of animal spirits, which too often leads young men to commit actions unbecoming the character of officers and gentlemen. It appears, however, that the evil is more deeply seated, and that the treatment which this young man has experienced is but part of a system by which miserable pre- tenders to gentility seek to rid themselves of one who has only his own exertions on which to depend. There can be little doubt that the Colonel of the regiment, if not an actual participator, was pas- sively an accessory, by doing nothing to repress such conduct; and the attempts made throughout each trial to prevent the truth being elicited, not only by the officers who were called as witnesses and would recollect nothing, but by the official Prosecutor and the DEPUTY JUDGE-ADVOCATE, show a predetermination to sacrifice Lieut. PERRY in order to screen the corps from the opprobrium so richly merited. There is, moreover, the con- viction that some change is necessary in order to render proceedings by court-martial something better than the mere mockeries of justice, which they appear to be at present, and therefore it will be some time at least before the military authori- ties will be able to satisfy the public that justice has been done. The exigencies of the war will not be permitted as an excuse, though it has been made a convenient handle for sending out of the way those officers whose evidence was necessary for the defence of the accused ; and perhaps it is as well that the demands for active service afford an opportunity to cover _the disgrace in which so many are involved, by finding them more useful occupation against the common enemy. In the meantime, justice demands that Lieut. PERRY should not be made the victim of a vicious system which the COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF would do well to reform, or Parliament may take the matter into its own hands, and: make military offenders ame- nable to courts of justice. THE WAR WITH RUSSIA PERHAPS the most exciting event which has yet taken place in the progress of the war is the cap- ture of Bomarsund, the Russian fortress on the Aland Isles, at the mouth of the Gulf of Bothnia ; and the most has been made of it by the ministerial organs, in order to persuade the public into the belief that the war is being prosecuted with vigour. It cannot be denied that the affair afforded an ample proof that the crews of the Baltic fleet have lost none of the courage and energy which shone so conspicuously at the Nile and Trafalgar. It may also be affirmed that the capture of Aland is im- portant, not only as providing a wintering place for the Baltic fleet, but serving to convince Sweden of the necessity of co-operating with the Western Powers in active hostility to Russia. It may also serve to convince the CZAR of the folly of under- valuing the prowess and resources of the force opposed to him. Still, with all these advantages, the question will force itself upon public attention, that the immense power possessed by Admiral NAPIER might ere this have been exercised against the more important strongholds of Helsingfors or Cronstadt. There is a strong suspicion existing in many minds that our commanders have instruc- tions from the ostensible heads of our Government at home, to do as little injury as possible to Russia, consistently with keeping up a show of active hos- tilities ; and nothing has yet occurred to remove such a suspicion. We were told some weeks since by the ministerial organ that the fortress of Sebas- topol was being attacked by sea and land, and even the day was named on which the operations were being commenced ; but, though nearly four weeks have since elapsed, all that we have heard by elec- tric telegraph is the anticipated departure of the troops for the expedition to the Crimea ; so that the public must continue to exercise patience for some time longer, until, perhaps, in the meantime we may learn that negotiations have been renewed, in order to kindly oblige the CZAR with the delay which was never more necessary to him. An important feature in the last week's news is the occupation of the Danubian Principalities by the Austrian forces. If confidence can really be placed in the sincerity of the Emperor of AUSTRIA, this circumstance may prove of considerable advan- tage to the Allies, inasmuch as it will enable the Turkish troops, flushed with their victory over the retreating Russians, to be beneficially employed in the reduction of the Crimea ; but unfortunately the conduct of the German Powers has been so vacil- lating, that the public are but little inclined to place any confidence in Austrian professions. The pro- tectorate of Russia over 3101davia Awl Walachia will be substituted by that of the ErePer°l ArsTnlA, who has promised to restore 6°14 Turkey on the conclusion of hostilities ; but, S he be playing false, he may be more difficult toclOt lodge than the Northern Autocrat, while it for all times easy for diplomatists to find a pretect_ , evading a treaty, when it is not convenient to ful', its requirements. On Thursday, the telegraph announced thot {he Turkish army in Asia had been totally routed the Russians, who had captured—so said tlicooor port—no less than 23,000 Turks, leaving 3, dead on the field of battle. It was, however, sta'a that the report came from Russian sources ; as the facility of the latter to convert defeats,..iTej victories is well known, the announcement r`v.,,+, to create any great excitement. It was in rer; overdone, the capture of 23,000 prisoners being 19 something beyond the bounds of probability ,116 also well known to be an important point in {he Mohammedan faith to believe that death on i"ci field of battle is the sure passport to Paradise; therefore it was the more unlikely that so realle; Turks would allow themselves to be captured, rb their death would have been the road to gl°tlb; The public, consequently, refused to receive the story, and Russian hyperbole failed in its effect' any were intended. MR. DISRAELI A CHAMPION °) PROT ESTANTISM Il THE address of the Liverpool Workinge .` Protestant Reformation Society to Mr. DOll'lsi'lle expressive of their confidence in him ss champion of our Protestant institutions, ' been eagerly seized upon by the orgy 1,11 Liberalism, as an opportunity for raking I co the slanders which unscrupulous malevolel/ can suggest, and to which some of the ante, cedents of the Conservative leader may have some some degree laid him open. We are not the aP°l gists or defenders of all that Mr. DISRAELI has °, and done during a long and active life devoted t, literature and politics ; but in these days of Pell' sion of principles, with such instances as the Presece Ministry can furnish, it is a contemptible pretell of political virtue to breathe a word against consistency of one who may fairly challenge c:01.4, parison with the most immaculate of his ti The question has, however, a higher signifies: than a petty squabble respecting what this or man may have said or done twenty years ago. detractors of Mr. DISRAELI may say their 11' and after all it will not do away the simple yet 5 portant fact, that, since the defection of the lateiy ROBERT PEEL, he has been the consistent, the untiring, and by far the ablest champion d to Conservative cause. Without any other 600, notice than his own ability, he reached the c,c'y manding position of leader of the landed arisOc•y of England; and, though the pride of birth have felt humbled by his want of it, the subreiss/ere to his leadership was a necessity which allscd compelled to admit. We might have preferred, man with more of the prestige belonging t° tion, but it would be the height of ingratitil'i::cil reject aid which was never more wanted, and '7O was rendered with such consummate OOP ago even his enemies were compelled to acknawiepcet his superiority. It is a fact beyond cavil, I°o reluctant may be our admission of it, thatLce of the Conservatives have had all the advantrove numbers and respectability, their opponent° t monopolised that boasted administrative , which is deemed indispensable to ministerialot;l cess. The Protestant cause has bad gr advantages in point of numbers, and yet hasp'.incapable of progress, from deficiency of the ilntble tant element of an able leader, with a 114.011/d ground of action. It was the mischief of 316%, Conservative administration, that it was lis'ale identified with antagonism. to Rome, but ratbereoe reverse; for it was Sir ROBERT PEEL who permanent endowment to Maynooth College, e withdrawing the grant from the annual Parliament. However the question may be fritl of away with ingenious casuistry about differelie"of doctrine, the real point at- issue is discouraget:cer and resistance to Romish aggression, in Wh3t form it may be presented ; and this will never be accomplished so long as the present Ministerso allowed to retain their places. Lord J. In" has avowed himself as a champion of ProtestO: and at one time laid claim to support by practl, separating the sees of St. Asaph and Bangor,l tio; his predecessor had in vain been called upon t° yet this, like his celebrated letter to the 10°'' DURHAM, was but a paroxysm of a better of which all his other actions have belied. 5 a ill der, then, that those who take a deep interei a question of such vital consequence, and feel) disabilities under which they have laboured, ail tise gladly seize the opportunity afforded, an 3,4 proffered leadership of one who has shown so consummate a master of political conflic' have no need, on the present occasion, to en t:0 any question as the fitness of Mr. Ellsl3';Aorcl assume the position .of a champion of the 'coo of England. We have simply to do with the tenance of our Protestant institutions 0 nistic to the insidious designs of Rome is a battle-ground upon wltich all may icce4s stand, in the full conviction that be effected by maintaining the Conserva 4ivC 13/°

AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE ALPS. By the Cunard ew-steamer Alps, Captain Moodie; the Mersey on Friday-, we had two days" later news from New York. The Alps brought 288,060 dollars. The passage occupied only eleven and a half days. More light has been thrown on the San Juan affair, by the arrival at New York of the Empire City. The damage done is estimated at one million of dollars. Before the claims come fairly before Congress, however, they will probably reach three millions. The foundry at the United States navy yard, in Wash• ington city, was totally destroyed by an explosion, while the workmen were engaged in casting a cylinder for the United States steamer Fulton. A fearful election riot, originating in a squabble between an Irishman and an American, took place at St. Louis on the Bth. The mob destroyed a large number of drinking houses, and broke the furniture to atoms. The crowd supplied themselves with axes, and smashed everything that would yield to blows. It is rumoured that five per- sons have been killed, and a large number wounded. The mob threatened to attack the college. The soldiers inter- fered, but not before five persons had been killed, and a great number wounded.

The jury found the prisoner guilty on both charges; and he was sentenced to fifteen years' transportation. RlOTlNG.—William Whalley was brought up to receive sentence for rioting at Wigan, to which charge he had pleaded guilty. He was sentenced to be imprisoned for twelve months with hard labour. FORGERY TO DEFRAUD A BURIAL SOCIETY.

ATTEMPTED WIFE MIIRDEE AT DEOTLSDEN.—Isaac Newton, silk weaver, was charged with having, at Droyls- den, on the 12th of July, attempted to strangle his wife, Sarah Newton, with intent to murder her. The prisoner and his wife were employed at Mr. Leigh's factory, at Droylsden, near Ashton. They had been married about twelve months, but, it was alleged, owing to his jealous temperament, led a very unhappy life. About two o'clock on the day in question he followed her upstairs and threw her on the bed, and, violently seizing her by the throat, attempted to strangle her. He was also charged with attempting to commit suicide by cutting his throat with a razor, shortly after the struggle with his wife.—The jury considered there was no evidence against the prisoner, and he was discharged. GAROTTE ROBBERY AT MANCIIESTER.JOhn Lee, labourer, George Allen, labourer, and Emma Jackson, were charged with assaulting and robbing Wm. Blacker, at Manchester, upon the 12th of August last. The pro- secutor is a striker in the employ of Messrs. Fairbairn and Co., of Manchester, and on the day in question he went into the Navigation Vaults, and on coming out was joined by Lee and Allen.

They made a desperate effort to get his watch, but a person coming up, they made off without being successful in this latter attempt.

The Couit- rose at a quarter-past eight o'clock, the whole of the criminal business on the calendar having been disposed of. NISI PRIUS COURT..--TIIESDAT, [Before Mr. Justice Crowder.] ACTION ON A CHARTER PARTY.—Hoskins v. Pritchard and Another.—On the court opening this morning, the continuation of this case, adjourned from the previous evening, was proceeded with. The jury, after hearing evidence, retired, and after some difficulty, gave a verdict for the defendant. BREACH or CONTRACT.—Schilizzi and Another v. Derry and Others.—This was an action on an alleged breach of charter party. The plaintiffs, Messrs. Schilizzi, were Greek merchants, carrying on business in Liverpool ; and the defendants, Messrs. Derry, Evans, and Co., re- siding at Plymouth, were trustees of a shipping partner- ship there, trading under the name of the Plymouth General Shipping Company, and were owners of the ship Magnolia, mentioned m the charter. The action was brought to recover damages for a breach of contract entered into on the 19th of August, 1853. The point in- volved was one of considerable importance. There was no dispute as to the facts of the case ; which would end probably in a verdict being given, guided by the ruling of the judge.—Verdict for the plaintiffs ; damages B 1,000; subject to a special case. _ _ lb:mem os Commecr.—Read and Others v. Aikin and Others.—This was an action to recover damages received by the ship David G. Fleming, in an accident arising out of an unsuccessful attempt to get her into the Brunswick Dock ; the defendants being the individual partners of the Liverpool Steam-Tug Company. From the evidence it appeared that the defendants had engaged to supply two steam-tugs for the purpose of docking the David G. Fleming on the 14th of March last. The tugs brought the vessel from the Sloyne and got her stern foremost into the entrance gut of the dock, her stern being at the dock-gate and her head in the river bearing slightly to- wards the north. In this position she was left by one of the steam-tugs, and became jammed between the southern gate of the dock and the north corner of the entrance. Here she remained fast for some time, no efforts made to relieve her being sufficient for her extrication. Ultimately three steamers, in addition to the tug belonging to the defendants, were employed to drag her out, and she was conveyed into the river, but by this time the tide had turned and was ebbing fast. In passing westward the vessel had to cross the Pluckington-bank, and had all but got over it when her heel caught the ground and she re- mained, receiving such damage as it occasioned the ex- penditure of £6,000 to repair. The action was chiefly grounded on the allegation that, if the second steam-tug had remained and done its duty, the vessel's head might have been eased round towards the south, and she herself got safely into the dock. After hearing a considerable body of evidence for the plaintiffs' the court adjourned.

and of Messrs. Ha I Jump fc shed of Collingwood- Dock AN Izrc 01ILIGIBLE.—Patrick Malloney was charged with having concealed four sheets of yellow sheathing metal, at the Sandon Graving-dock, on Saturday afternoon, with intent to steal it. Police-constable 773 saw the prisoner endeavouring to hide the metal under a quantity of oakum, and watched till he returned to take it away. When the prisoner returned apparently to carry off the booty, the constable took him into custody. The prisoner had, it seems, been fifteen times committed to prison on charges of theft; and had been also four times discharged. On the present occasion he was sentenced to be imprisoned for three months.

CORN LIVERPOOL, AUG. 22.—We have had a tolerably good attendance at this day's market, and have ex- perienced a fair consumptive demand for fine wheat, which maintain the rates of Tuesday, but little business has been practicable in any secondary descriptions, and the value of such is irregular, and generally rather lower. Although a large portion of the cereal crops in this neigh- bourhood is already cut, very few samples have appeared for sale, and consequently no certain prices of new are yet established ; offers of old wheats from the farmers, however, are rather more numerous to-day, and realised the annexed quotations. Flour in fair request, but only choice fresh qualities support the currencies of Tuesday : Canadian, in some cases, is sold a trifle cheaper from the quay, and prime Spanish is saleable at 625. Barley and beans, in limited request, barely supporting previous prices. Oats find a slow sale, but oatmeal continues in good demand. The market is cleared of prime yellow Indian corn, and Irish buyers have taken secondary descriptions to a good extent at full prices ; choice white is also very scarce. FOREIGN.

Wheat was also in fair request, at late rates. The same remark is applicable Woats, oatmeal, and Egyptian beans, each being in better demand at last week's rates. Indian 4 corn steady. DUBLIN, AUG. 24.—An opinion prevails that in con- sequence of 24,000 trs. and 12,000 brls. of navy beef being required for the fleet, the price of stock will hold firm. Certain it is, that although the number of beasts at Smithfield this day was considerably greater than at any previous market this season, everything except inferior cattle maintained, or nearly so, the rates of last week. Prime well-finished stock was in brisk demand, but beasts not up to the mark were in less request, and sal easily effected at a downward tendency. The attei of btlyers for export and home consumption was numerous, the demand steady, and feeders seemed satisfied with the results of the day. Including the 36,000 casks of cured beef above referred to, it is understood that 50,000 trs. of beef and 32,000 trs. of pork will be required for the and navy, being the largest contract for the last half cen- tury. Beef to-day, 50s to 60s, and 65s per cwt., sinking offal ; mutton, sd, 51d, to 6,1 d, and 7d per lb.; veal, 6,id to 7d per lb. in do.; lambs, 20s to 28s each. Pork, it is supposed, will open about ed per lb. (on the Ist proximo), or about 56s per cwt.

EXCEPTED ARTICLES TO BANKRUPTS.—By the new Bankrupt*, Act, all bankrupts on and after Sept. 1 are to be allowed £2O worth of excepted articles in furniture and implements of trade, in the same manner as insolvents are allowed by the-Insolvent Debtors' Court. Tns TELEGRA.PII r.x TruKEr.--The Sultan lately con- ceded a line of electric telegraph. It is to start from Constantinople for Belgrade, where it will be in commu- nication with all the German lines. A branch is to start from Adrianople to Shumla. The line is to be completed in four months. A PROLIFIC Mlrßort.—Mrs. Green, a Scotchwoman, who received her first ticket as a Wesleyan from the founder of Methodism, had 4 children at one birth, 12 at four births, 12 at six births, 15 at 15 births-43 in all, at 26 births. Thirty-three of her children were baptised ; her surviving child was lost on returning from India. THE RUssIAN• Pnzsoms.—The 2,000 Russian pri- soners taken at Bomarsund will be brought home in some of the ships of war that took out the French troops from the Downs to the Baltic. Already preparations are being made for their reception, and the Devonshire, at Sheer- ness, is being got ready to take 500 of them on board. SUICIDE TO AVOID THE CAT.—James Ransom, an able seaman of the Valorous, 16 (Paddle), Captain Buckle, in the Baltic, committed suicide on the sth instant, by jump- ing overboard. It appears that he had been sentenced to receive three dozen lashes for some offence. While the gratings were being rigged for his punishment, he pleaded hard to the captain for mercy, and subsequently to the first lieutenant, to intercede in obtaining some other punishment ; but, finding these officers determined to let the punishment be inflicted, he jumped overboard, and was drowned.—Plymouth Mail. A QUACK liocion.--A N-erdict of "manslaughter" has been returned by a coroner's jury at Bradford against one Ward, of Leeds, who described himself on his sign-plate as "a curer of cancer without cutting." The description attracted the attention of a woman resident at Horton, and she placed herself under his care for a tumour in the breast, which he proceeded to treat in such a way that she sank from constitutional irritation. The unfortunate patient expressed a desire that an inquiry might be made into the cause of her death, as a warning to others.—Leeds Intelligencer. Niontovr ESCAPE. A young woman, a servant in Greenock, had a sweetheart in Australia, and having pros- pered, he gallantly determined to have the girl of his affections to be his wife, and, for the purpose of fitting her out and paying her passage, remitted her the sum of £5O. Alas ! " Frailty, thy name is Woman!" Jane could neither appreciate the young man's proof of affec- tion nor the happiness she was likely to enjoy in the far- off land of gold, for, on receipt of the money, she disap- peared with a fellow who is likely to spend it still more rapidly than it was earned. The expectant in Australia, when he comes to know the circumstances, may be thank- ful for his lucky escape, even though it has cost him £5O sterling.—Caledonian Mercury. GLASS BRlCRS.—Amongst the more recent inventions patented by manufacturers, we hear of one by Mr. Sum- merfield, of the Glass-works, Birmingham Heath, for what are termed chromatic glass, or glass-faced grooved bricks. By Mr. Sunimerfield's process, red or other clay can be combined with glass, and this will secure durability, en- tire resistance to moisture, and give an ornamental ap- pearance to the building. The form of the brick is also, by means of a groove at the side and end, made so as to add greatly to the strength of the erection, the joints by this means being brought close together, and the mortar acts as a dowell from the shape of the groove.—The Builder.—[A plan in many respects similar to that no- ticed above was suggested by a writer in Blackwood's Magazine, at the time when duty was taken off glass.] CAUSES OF FEVER AT SEA.—A fact related by Dr. Rioge, in the Medical Times and Gazette, has an im- portant bearing upon the regulation of emigrant ships. When the Hellas, flag-ship of Lord Cochrane, in the Greek Archipelago, in the summer of 1.827, was cruizing off the Morea, with a native crew of 600, inflammatory remittant fever appeared among the men. A thorough overhauling of the lower regions of the ship was instituted with a view to detect the source of the visitation. On the cable-tier, immediately under the main hatchway, was found a layer, some inches thick, of biscuits,. olives, fish-bones, pieces of salt and fresh meat, &c., the remains and refuse of the men's dishes cast into this receptacle. The active decom- position going on in this pestiferous hot-bed engendered an atmosphere that, once inhaled, satisfied the most scep- tical on board of its noxious character. The remedy applied was prompt and successful. THE AGE OF ILLUSTEATION.—On Tuesday last a sin- gular-looking letter passed through the official fingers of the authorities at our General Postoffiee, in Queen-street. The epistle was intended for a person residing in a village three or four miles from Exeter, but the name of the vil- lage (Broadclist) only was given, a very good likeness, sketched in ink, being substituted for the person's name. The local postman who goes the round in question soon recognised the features of one of his fellow-parishioners, and he forthwith proceeded on his daily delivery of letters. A smart double-knock at the door brought the individual for whom the letter was designed, before the sagacious letter-carrier, to whom the missive' was at once handed without the slightest explanation on either side, though not without a boisterous laugh, at parting, from both, at this novel mode of addressing correspond OPENING OF TIM KING'S LYNN ATHENSUM.—The Athenaeum in King's Lynn, projected some years ago by a few local residents, and just completed, at a cost of about £7,000 (Lord Stanley having subscribed £l,OOO -for the purchase of books), was opened last week, in the presence of a large number of influential inhabitants. The building comprises a music hall, museum, newsroom, class rooms, &c. A library will be opened for the working classes at a nominal subscription, the corporation con- tributing £5O a year to its maintenance, and another annual grant of a like amount to the Athenaeum generally. At the inauguration, on Wednesday, an address from the working classes was presented to Lord Stanley, expressing their gratitude for his munificent donation. His lordship, in an eloquent reply, enlarged upon the advantages of such' institutions, and discussed Various topics in con- nection with the educational wants of the country. VALUABLE DISCOVERY.—A discovery, which is likely to be of great advantage to agriculture, has just been reported to the Agricultural Society of Clermont (Oise). A gardener, whose frames and hot-house required paint- ing, decided on making them black, as likely to attract the heat better, and from a principle of economy he made use of gas-tar instead of black paint. The work was per- formed during the winter, and on the approach of spring the gardener was surprised to find that all the spiders and insects which usually infested his hot-house had dis- appeared, and also that a vine, which for the last two years had so fallen off that he had intended to replace it by another, had acquired fresh force and vigour, and gave every sign of producing a large crop of grapes. He after- wards used the same substance to the posts and trellis- work which supported the trees in the open air, and met with the same result, all the caterpillars and other insects completely disappearing. It is said that similar experi- ments have been made in some of the vineyards of the Gironde with similar results.— Galignani. TERRIFIC COLLIERY EXPLOSION.—EarIy on Tuesday, a most terrific explosion took place at Lund-hill Colliery, Hemingfield, about five miles south of Barnsley, and half a mile from the South Yorkshire Railway. On Monday, in consequence of some alterations having been made in connection with the boilers of the -engine, the sinkers did not work ; but on Tuesday morning they descended as usual, and at 610 a terrific explosion of fire-damp took place which alarmed the whole neighbourhood for a mile round. The first thing that was 'noticed after the shock of the explosion was the body of a bricklayer named Wil- liam Davey, flying in the air, at a height of 90 feet, and subsequently falling upon a wall elevated 18 feet from the surface of the ground, for the purpose of increasing the height of the pit mouth ; from this he was taken quite dead. James Batty, who was on the boards placed across the mouth of the pit for the purpose of landing the material sent out, was blown from his position, .and fell to the bot- tom of the shaft. The plank upon which he had been standing was found at a distance of 300 feet from the place where it had been originally firmly nailed. The head-gear was blown down, which caused some time to.be lost before any one could be lowered down the shaft. So soon, however, as means could be effected for that purpose, William Corbridge, Thomas Armitage, and Jepson de- scended,.and found the bodies of William Mozley, James Batty, and Matthew Pollard in a fearfully mangled state, and quite dead. Noah Heely and Thomas Jackson were very much injured, the former, so much so that he is not expected to recover. Matthew Pollard is about 50 years of age, and has left a wife and eight children, who are resid- ing at Rochdale, Lancashire, which town he left a fort- night since, and commenced work at this place. William Davey, bricklayer, resided at llawtry, and has left a wife and three children. William Mozley and James Batty are single, and natives of the place. litAitniAGE OF A TURKISH PRINCESS.—The ceremony of the espousals of Ali Galib Pasha and the Princess Fatima commenced on the morning of the 7th instant. At nine o'clock the presents given by the sultan to his daughter left Chiragan Serail, preceded by a numerous body of pashas, generals, and officers, in their gala uni- forms, with a battalion of infantry, and a fine band of music, playing martial airs. Then came upwards of 100 pages, each bearing on his head a salver, on which were placed baskets of flowers and sweetmeats, tastefully enve- loped in gauze of various gay colours ; cooking utensils of silver, with gilt handles and knobs, followed ; and these were succeeded by the nichan takim, objects invariably presented to a bride, consisting of a pair of pattens, and a hand-mirror, for the use of the bath; the former were of gold enamelled, the broad straps richly studded with bril- liants, and the back and handle of the mirror were equally ornamented with jewels. An anteri (petticoat), sparkling with diamonds, was also exhibited; and, finally, two char- it-banes filled with trunks, containing, among other precious objects, an abundance of French millinery to decorate the Oriental person of the princess. To these were added a purse on behalf of the bridegroom, containing a million of piasters, in the shape of pin-money. This train of pashas and presents embarked, after ten minutes' ride, in 28 boats, pulled each by ten men, and in upwards of 150 kaiks, and proceeded up the Bosphorus to Ali Galib Pasha's palace. On the Bth and 9th several interesting ceremonies took place in the sultan's harem, viz., the bride was conducted to the bath, her finger and toe nails dyed red with henna, and her hair decorated with jewellery. These were three distinct ceremonies. On the morning of the 10th the bridegroom repaired to the palace, where the grand vizier, the ministers, and all the grandees received him in state, and the " akdoonikali," or ceremony of espousals, was duly performed; afterwards the whole party moved on in grand style, the grand vizier (surrounded by his staff) and the bridegroom bringing up the rear, towards Baltaliman. An immense concourse was collected on the line of the proces- sion, consisting chiefly of the fair sex, who seemed to interest themselves particularly on the occasion. The evening of the 10th was fixed for the " zifaf-guedgessi," or night of introduction, when the fortunate pasha would behold his modest bride for the first time. The Oriental custom of their supping together on a boiled fowl would, it was said, be duly observed, and next morning the ceremonies would be wound up by the young pasha's visit to kiss the dust of the feet of his imperial father-in-law, and the hem of tho garment of each of the princess's other near relatives. Owing to the difficulties of the day, the usual five days' and five nights' rejoicings were put aside, and ti dhow: was the only treat given to the Turklah efficiab. LIVERPOOL YACHT CLUB REGATTA. THE first regatta of this club for the season commenced. on Wednesday, and was continued on Thursday. The un- favourable weather on Wednesday prevented the attendance of many who delight in aquatic sports, and cut short the first race, which was for a cup, value £3O. The course was from Birkenhead, round the Bell Buoy and North-west Light-ship, and back. At a quarter past twelve the signal gun to start was fired, and the yachts were soon under weigh, but, as the yachts neared the Formby light-ship, the-weather became still more boisterous,. and it was deemed prudent to cease the contest. The second race was for a cup, value £2O, for fixed keel yachts of all clubs, from three to eight tons. All the yachts started except the Arrow, but several gave in in the course of the race, which was won by the Electric passing the flag-boat 4 minutes 15 seconds before the Sirocco. The course was from Birkenhead round the Crosby Light- ?; thence round the North Magazine, back to Birken- h. The third race, for shrimpers, went off, no boats coming up. The fourth race was for a purse of £lO, for pair-oared in- riggers, to be pulled and steered by gentlemen amateurs. Only the Belle and Rocket ran. The crew of the Mystery pulled in the Rocket, and won the race, the Belle giving in. - THURSDAY. —Owing to the unsettled state of the weather this morning, and the heavy fall of rain yesterday, the attendance was by no means numerous, the party on board the steamer numbering about 60. The afternoon turned out fine, and there being an excellent band of music on board, the ladies and gentlemen joined in a waltz and quadrille party, and spent a pleasant hour. On account of the strong breeze which was blowing from the W.N.W., the committee altered the course, the sailing yachts start- ing from the commodore's flag-ship, which was moored off Birkenhead, and rounding No. 1 floating powder maga- zines, moored off Eastham, running the course three times, and finishing the race at the flag-ship Shortly after the races, the members of the Liverpool Yacht Club and their friends dined together at the Royal Birkenhead Hotel ; immediately after which, the various prizes were presented to the successful competitors. Several excellent speeches were delivered, and a pleasant evening was spent. The amusements terminated with a display of fireworks. The first race for a cup value £3O, was won by the Priestess. The second for a cup value £2O, did not come off owing to the weather. A race of shrimpers' boats for 12 sovereigns was won by the Lightning. A purse of £l5, for four-oared in-riggers, to be pulled and steered by gen- tlemen amateurs was won by the Lady Constance, a Chester boat. Three other races for smaller sums were won re- spectively by the Perseverance, the Jessica's punt, and the Rosalind's gig.

BRIEF HISTORY OP THE WAR 'NEVER, perhaps, in any war, did so many amateurs ac- Tampany, at least one of the belligerent armies, and, per- haps, never did any war disappoint the military world so much as this one. The campaign of 1853 reduces itself 'to one small combat (Oltenitza), between three battalions 'entrenched, and a brigade in the open country—a fight which, in the wars of Napoleon, would have been looked upon as an every-other-day affair, and which, in the pre- sent instance, would have been of no importance, but for being the first time the Turks had tried their arms against the Russians since their new European organisation. The winter was employed by them in looking at each other at Kalafat across indifferent entrenchments, and in making and resisting one ill-managed sally at Csitate ; the want of information on the part of the Turks during the whole period being so ridiculous -that they imagined they had constantly 30,000 or 40,000 men in their front, whereas it turns out that there never were much above 12,000. How- ever, during the winter, every one prognosticated fighting in earnest—no child's play in the spring. Month after , month slipped by. The great bugbear, the Russian army, would be across the Danille, and the fate of Turkey, or , Bulgaria at any rate, would hang on the chances of one great battle. At length the bugbear is roused from his lair, and crosses the Danube. Every one anticipates that long marches and skilful strategic manoeuvres, on the one hand or the other, will illustrate some principle which had been discovered and-recognised during the last war. Nothing of the sort. The bugbear advances most " gin gerly" on Silistria, and Iwys siege to it in the most unen- terprising manner. Every one wonders at the extent and beauty of the works whieb the engineers' department exe- cuted, but all of a 'defensive nature; the offensive ones being ill-directed, and the siege of a wretched earthen redoubt, defended by an =disciplined body, ending in a failure, after losing a very great number of men and officers, and expending an enormous amount of ammuni- tion and labour. Then =rives the Anglo-French contin- gent. They break ground by throwing up a series of field-works near Gallipoli, hundreds of miles from the theatre of actual war. At length they embark for Varna, whcnuc cl cry oue auticifiates a series or -Drilliant manteu ores, ending in a tremendous action—won, of course, by the allied armies. Wren once more. The only aid sent to Silistria, whose garrison was in expectation of being relieved by the united armies, is two engineer officers, who arrive the very day the Russians raise the siege. Then succeeds a bungling; ill-conducted passage of the-Danube by the Turks, ending in their forcing the Russians to retire a day or two sooner than they had intended. Nor have the navies done more. The bombardment of a few unimportant places is all 'that, •up to the present, they have to boast of. The French and English armies are thoroughly disgusted, and2-the general wish is to be out of the whole affair, if there were only any means availdble of getting out of it with honour. The amateurs are not the least so. To have to undergo all manner of privations and disagreeables, whose name in Turkey is legionovith- out a single thing to repay them for it, is more than was bargained for. Nor will sinlitary history or the military art have been the gainers by one single fact. We-shall never see any occurrence of this war, up to the present, quoted in any book, except, perhaps, as an example to be warned by. It will have done two things, however, were affairs to be stopped at theyresent stage, viz., Russia will no longer be a bugbear, and the world will be completely desillusiond as to Turkey.—Morning Chronicle. DRUIDISM.—The second anniversary of the Good Sa- maritan Lodge took place on Monday last, at the house of Host Tyrer, Clement-street; Dr. Marsh, the surgeon to the club, occupying the chair, ably supported by P. A. Robin- son and P. A. Tyrer, the vico.chair being filled by R. A. Hivey. Several excellent speeches and songs kept the company in good humour until a late hour. FORESTERS' FESTIVAL AT ISIRKENITEAD.—Yesterday fine streets of Birkenhead resounded with the din of a land marching at the head of furocession formed of the, members or several lodges of -the " Ancient Order of Voresters" held in Birkenhead and its vicinity. The pro- oessionists met opposite the Craven-rooms, at ten o'clock in .ibe forenoon, and after parading the streets of the township, they dined together at Mr. Wingfield's, George and 'Dragon Hotel, Grange-lane. `The day was wound up by ai.ball at the Britannia-rooms, Lower Tranmere. THE Minn.—A wretched monomaniac, styling himself " The'Rev. Joseph Barker, formerly Methodist Preacher," desirous of emulating the infamous notoriety of Tom Paine, has been delivering lectures during the week at the Nev.- Music Hall, in Bold-street, to prove that the Bible is. not divinely inspired. This 'blasphemous attack led, of -course, to opposition, and the meeting became so disorderly-that the interference of the-police was rendered necessary. the proprietor of the hall permit it to be used for purposes of profanation, and in open violation of the bad of our belief, he may find that, when devoted to a less objectionable purpose, the public will be-inclined to refuse their patronage. THE CIIINTZA. IN EDINBURGIL—After several months' cessation, cholera has reappeared in Edinburgh within the last few days. „It seems to have arisen from the simulta- neous importation of it by persons coming from different in- fected districts. in consequence of the outbreak a meeting of the Sanitary Committee, consisting of representatives of the police aud!parochial boards, was held on Wednesday.. Up to that morning 12 cases were reported as having occurred in Edinburgh, and one in Leith. Of the 12 easel, the three that :first occurred were imported, and were all, we understand, fatal. One was a passenger, seized on the way from London, on board the steam-ship Trident ; another was master of a small vessel plying from Alloa or Limekilus to ;Leith; and the third was a man coming from Airdrie, who 'bad taken lodgings in the Ca- nongate, and whose case was followed by six others In the neighbourhood, three of them proving fatal. In two other spontaneous cases death had .ensued after a few hours' ill- ness. In only four cases were the patients reported as not yet dead, or as likely to recover. The case in Leith was fatal after a brief illness. With regard to the state of the ielty, the Lord Provost expressed his belief that the city bad during the past three or four months been cleaner ex- ternally at least, than it had ever.before been in its history. Medical reports as to the very healthy state of the town before this outbreak were also referred to. Ma. PENNY'S DAVIS' STRAITS EMPECIITION.—ACCOIIIItS have just come to hand from Captain Penny, of the Lady Franklin, that his expedition to Davis' Straits, in fur- therance ,of a project of a resident whale fishery, has been most successful. He is now at Aberdeon with the Lady Franklin full of boiled oil, and the Sophia 'is expected to follow, also a bumper ship. It will be remembered that the crew of an American whaler, wrecked in Davis' Straits three years ago, had succeeded in killing daring their residence at Kumsooka some eight or nine whales. This fact, coupled with Captain Penny's large experience in the Arctic regions, led him to propose that a resident fishery should be established there, and that a commercial com- pany, under royal charter, should engage in the enter- prise. It was intended, also, to work some plumbago mines which were known to be in the district ; but the project was not sustained by government, and fell through. Captain Penny, however, was supported by a few commer- cial gentlemen who had the fullest confidence in his specu- lation, and the Lady Franklin and Sophia, Arctic explor- ing ships, were purchased and fitted out in Aberdeen for the expedition last year. Both ships were supplied with tanks for the oil, and the necessary arrangements were made for encountering a winter's residence in the Straits, in order to be ready for the first opportunity of getting at the fish in the spring. Two hardy crews were engaged, and provision was also made for the moral and spiritual good of the natives among whom Captain Penny ex- pected to have to reside. The ships sailed in July last year, and this is the first news we have of them since that time. In a commercial point of view, the speculation will be a most profitable one, the oil alone being worth t1x8i7.41, wwallingef large e Sum will by realised for some ten or The intended structure is to occupy the corner of Roszoe-street and Back Knight-street and will be large enough to contain daily, infant, and Sunday schools, to- gether with a house for the master. On reaching the site of the intended edifice, the minister will read some portions of Scripture, and offer up a prayer suited to the occasion, after which a hymn will be sung. At the conclusion of the hymn, the Rev. W. Pollock will address the mayor, and, in the name of the building committee, will present him with a silver trowel, and his worship will proceed to lay the first stone of the building. Another prayer will then be said, and the assembly will be addressed by a memher of the building committee, after which the National Anthem will be sung, which will complete the ceremonial. In external appearance the design has considerable architectural merit, and is an attempt to adopt the geo- metric decorated style of the middle ages to domestic pur- poses, retaining the necessarily compulsory essentials of a street frontage. The site, which is in many respects peculiar, and the area being confined, it presented unusual difficulties of arrangement, and caused much trouble in obtaining a sufficient quantity of light. The principal front presents several windows, filled with geometric tracery of a light and tasteful character; the principal staircase is surmounted by a tower whose upper stage is pierced with similar tracery. The tower is covered by a pyramidal roof of high pitch, which imparts character to the whole design. The upper portion of the tower is in- tended to be used in aiding ventilation. The school buildings consist of three floors, the infant school occupying the ground floor; the boys' school will be on the first, and the girls' school on the second or upper storey. Each of the schoolrooms has an area of 1,600 square feet, and will accommodate '2OO children. Adjoining each school is a classroom and entrance-lobby, a portion of the latter being devoted to the reception of caps, bonnets, &c. The height of each of the two lower schools is 14 feet from floor to ceiling; the girls' school to have an open timbered roof, which is 11 feet high to the eaves. Access is obtained from Roscoe-street to each of the schools, so that the children will be kept out of the narrow side Street almost entirely. An airing yard is provided for each school. Adjoining the schools is a residence for the muster, to consist of three bedrooms, parlour, kitchen, scullery, &c., with a separate yard. The buildings- are to be constructed of gray brick, with quoins, dressings, and wrought stonework of the local red sandstone. The architect for the edifices is Mr. T. D. Barry, of this town, and of Lincoln's Inn-fields, London. The contract for the bolding has been taken by Mr. Thomas Hughes, Brownlow-street, and the cost is esti- mated at £2,200. LIVERPOOL BOROUGH SESSIONS. (Before GILBERT HENDERSON, Esquire, Recorder.) YESTERDAY, the intermediate sessions for the borough were opened in the criminal court, at the old 'Sessions House, Chapel-street. The calendar was unusually light, there being only -26 cases, and 38 prisoners, of whom 16 could neither read 'nor write ; 4 could only read ; 23 could read and write imperfectly; and 1 could read and write well. Two of the prisoners (one a ..servant girl) were under 16 years 'of age ; eleven were older Than 16 and younger than'2l; and the remainder were of various ages up to 63. The fenowm* g gentlemen were sworn upon the GRAND JURY:— Mr. Thos. Brittain Fonvood, broker, foreman. ' Mr. Joseph Armstrong, jun., merchant. Mr. James Henry Butter, merchant. Mr. Thomas Boyd, merchant. Mr. Francis Boult, merchant. Mr. John Carmichael, merchant. Mr. William Carson, merchant, Mr. Richard Derbyshire, merchant. lltr. Henry Glynn, broker. Mr. Robert Girvin. merchant. Mr. Michael Harnett, corn-broker. Mr. James Howell, broker. Mr. John Herd, corn merchant. Mr. Charlton Robert Hall, wine broker. Mr. Edward Hatton, anchor-smith. Mr. Charles Melhuisb, merchant. Mr. Richard Andrew Mould, wine merchant. Mr. JOhn Blayds Molyneux, broker. Mr. JOhn George Woodhouse, wine merchant. The proclamation against vice and immorality having been read, the Recorder proceeded to deliver the charge : Gentlemen of the Grand Jury, said he, when parliament rises, the attention of the General Quarter Session is natu- rally called to those enactments by which its labours are to be guided in the administration of justice. In looking at the recent acts, I find one for the suppression of gaming houses, but I an happy to believe that the habits of this community render the operation of such an act of little consequence here. I think it is only at particular times, during the races, that such practices prevail to any extent in this town. With the assistance of this, statute the magistrates will be enabled to put down any at- tempt of that description. There is, also, an Act to extend, beyond the district of the metropolitan police, the provision against the-use of dogs for drawing trucks or carts. Here, again, it-is to the credit of the people of Liverpool, that such practices have not prevailed in this town. There is, further, an Act which has in view the extension of the benefits which have arisen from abridging the hours for selling distilled and fermented liquors on Sun- days. It has been connitiered that this had a beneficial effect, and that further restriction will prove useful. I hope it may be so. Of course it ought to be the duty of the magistrates to enforce this law ; and the penalties are extremely rigo- rous, because for each separate infringement of its provi- sions the beerhous&keeper is liable to a penalty of £5. Undoubtedly, anything that could lesson the amount of drunkenness is particularly desirable in this town. I find that in the course of last year 5,250 persons were appre- hended in Liverpool. as being drunk and disorderly, and 4,185, as being drunk and incapable of taking care of themselves. Now, this is quite sufficient to show how greatly the offence -of drunkenness prevails in this town ; and here I take the opportunity of saying how much I think the public are indebted to the discretion with which the magistrates have recently exercised their powers of licensing fresh public-houses. There was a time in the history of this town-when, as it seems to me, too great a latitude was used kr that department, and the consequence was that a greater:number of public-houses beyond what was usual were licensed ; and to this circumstance may be attributed a considerable portion of the drunkenness which prevails in the town. The magistrates, however, have of late been more sparing in the exercise of their licensing powers. Last year, only fifteen new public- houses were licensed, and, as seven were forfeited, the increased number of additional licenses was in reality only eight. Now, of course I am quite aware that it is not to the enactment of any law, so much as to an improvement in the moral feeling and intelligence and habits of the people, that we mast look for amendment in this respect. But still •the law may assist; and I do not think that efforts are •to be neglected with reference to the discreet exercise of the licensing power. Therefore, I fully admit that we cannot make people sober by act of parliament. Yet, I still think that the provisions of the enactment may be exercised with beneficial effect in pre- venting drunkenness. I hope, therefore, that the same -course will be persevered in, and that, though the magis- -trates may think fit to grant some licenses to districts which an increasing population may require, they will still recollect that public-houses are already far too numerous in the older districts, and that nothing mere will be done than the necessities of the public war- rant. Gentlemen, there is also an act recently passed for the purpose of bringing into -more extensive use the reformatory schools for youthful offenders. It is impos- sible to touch this topic without a passing tribute to the excellent magistrate who was the first to move in the subject ; and without stating that the petition of the Liverpool justices, drawn up by him, has from the first to the last been one of the most important grounds on which this measure has been founded. The scheme of this act is that schools should be established for young offenders by voluntary subscription ; that every such school should be visited and examined by an inspector of prisons, whose province it should be to report upon its condition and regulations:. that the Home Secretary should then cer- tify the school as useful and efficient ; and that a magistrate or judge of any court may, on conviction of any offender .under sixteen years old, order him or her to be sent to such a reformatory school for a period of from two to five years ; and the: Treasury may arrange the expenses for such maintenance and education. But the school must be named ander the direction of the magistrate or the court; and it must be ascertained beforehand that the directors are zvilling to receive the offender. Now, you will observe that this act is rather preparatory, than that it can be at once acted upon. This court, for instance, is In no condition to .act upon this statute : there is no school established ; and there is no school of which the Home Secretary has approved, and to which the directors have empowered me to send persons committed here. It is, therefore, clear that much must be done by voluntary efforts before this system ,ean be carried into more general effect. For my part, I think it would supply a want that is very deeply felt; but ,st the same time, I do think that suet provisions must lie very carefully exercised ; and that no encouragement should be given to children, to take them from that natural support which they should find in their parents. However, gentlemen, I mention the state .of the law to show that, although the legislature has declared its willingness to act upon such a system, we still require the voluntary efforts of humane persons to obtain power for carrying this design into effect. The only case, gentlemen, to come before you, that requires any special direction from me, is one of housebreaking. In this particular case entry into the house was effected by lifting up the grid of the coal-cellar. There was a fasten- ing to the grid, but It was out of order, and so it was only necessary to lift up the grid, for a person to make his entry into the house. But I should tell you that in a similar case that occurred, the judges were equally divided in the opinion whether an entry so effected was a breaking into the house or not. But the case, in this instance, does not stop here ; because you will find that, having so got into the house, the offender broke into a room in the house. You will find that the staple to the lock was forced out of the door, which had been secured, and so opened; and if you find this to have been so, you may properly find a verdict for housebreaking, because it is not essential that it should be the outside-door—the breaking of any inside-door is sufficient to constitute the offence as defined by the law. Therefore, if you find that the inside-door in this house was broken, you may safely find a bill for housebreaking. The number of the cases in the caledar is but small-44, small even for the length of period since last sessions ; but nevertheless I am by no means sure that that is a clear ndication that the town is in a healthy state in respect to crime. I might be led into a great mistake by taking the state of the calendar as a guide, for, though I don't find a single case of pocket picking, I do not suppose the offence has ceased to operate here; and, though I do not find a single case of stealing from ships and from the docks, I cannot, therefore, conclude that such an offence has ceased to 014 itga 14 Of M 4410 ,19E4 vi tb &Iva YESTERDAY, at noon, a number of members of the corporation, and some of the most influential merchants in the town, attended at the office of the Liverpool Dock Committee, to inspect an elaborately and beautifully- wrought model of Mr. Grantham's proposed high-level railway for the town and docks. Among those present we observed Mr. Stewart, Mr. C. Bushell, Mr. Alderman Bennett, Mr. Tomlinson, Mr. Beckwith, Mr. Ald. Gardner, Mr. J. Hubback, Mr. T. Baines, &c., &c. The model, which is on the comprehensive scale of one-sixteenth of an inch to the foot, exhibited the advantages of the pro- posed scheme much more clearly than auy verbal or written description could possibly convey. It will remain for several days on private view at the Dock-office, when it will be removed to a convenient place for public in- spection. At the request of Mr. C. Bushell, and in reply to ques- tions put to him by gentlemen in the room, Mr. GRANT- HAM, C.E., described the main features of the scheme. He said, in the first place, the railway, as projected, was to be as long as the working parts of the docks, whatever they might be ; at present they were four miles long, and ere long they would be five miles. It was proposed to lie placed on the east side of the whole line of the docks, to consist of iron frame work, supporting two platforms ; the lower about 52 feet wide, and 20 feet above the present quays, entirely for goods; having four lines of railway, the two nearest the docks to be used as sidings for trucks while loading and unloading, and the other two as up and down lines for trucks in motion. Theltwo used for loading and unloading would be so arranged as to sweep the ships and the cranes at the same time. The upper platform would be about 23 feet wide, would have two lines of railway, and would be entirely for passengers. The height to which passengers would have to ascend would be 35 feet, or less than the height of many existing rail- way stations. The lower platform would be provided with hydraulic cranes, which would transfer goods either from or to the vessels or the trucks, as well as work through the hatchways in the platform to the quays. The quays would be used as at present, the railway occupying the position of the present sheds on the eastern quays. The greater part of the space under the lower platform might be enclosed, and by these means greatly increased shed space would be gained; and ample light being given as required, excellent lock-up transit or deposit sheds would be avail- able. The continuous length of docks made them peculiarly adapted for the construction of the railway, as there was only one curve, and that not of a serious nature, in the whole range. At every great inlet from the town there would be stations for the reception of passengers, the most important one being at the bottom of Chapel-street, where it would be found of great convenience to people coming from 'Change and wishing to go northward. That build- ing in the model was larger than it need be, if used merely as a station ; but he also proposed that it should supply the purposes of the Custom-house depot, which he proposed to remove. Other passenger stations along the line could be provided by projecting the space 10 feet out, and thus making room for a platform. For the accommodation of passengers getting on at the central station, he proposed to throw a bridge, to be approached by a staircase from Chapel-street to the station, in order to avoid the cart traffic on the highway. He proposed to construct other bridges near the Custom-house, James-street, and one at the Canal Bank, in Ball-street, to com- municate with Oldhall-street and other places. Covered bridges at Chapel-street and . James-street would provide safe access to the pierheads for pedestrians. The goods department he proposed should be entirely worked by horses at present, as the goods had only to be removed short distances at a time ; and he suggested that the pas- senger trains should run every ten minutes. Before pro- ceeding to the mode of connecting the docks, by means of the railway, with the private warehouses inland, he wished to draw attention to the fact that the scheme was entirely independent of warehouses, private or public; and he wished to keep it so. But his object was to show by what means such a connection could be obtained. He then explained, and referred to the model in illustration, that the railway could be connected, by a high-level bridge across Bath-street, with the warehouses in Brook-street, Launcelot's-hey, and the Goree ; that lines of high-level railway could run round them, or in such places as would be found most convenient ; that they could readily be extended to the warehouses behind ; and that,:by means of bridges, the high-level railway could be connected with our great railways, and with the private warehouses in the town; and that the proprietors of private coal-yards might avail themselves of this simple mode of obtaining easy communication with the docks. Having shown what facilities the scheme would furnish for the use of the most approved machinery, which could not be generally worked under thepresent arrangements,he stated that the proposed scheme wouldenable the Dock Committee toestablish auni- form rate of carriage for all the distance—tending to effect that centralization of the work of the docks, so much re- quired. It had been stated by some that the omnibusses would be.able to meet all the wants of the town ; but if they were to widen the streets considerably, and increase the kind of accommodation they at present had, they would never be able to comply with the wishes and demands of the public; whereas by the adoption of this scheme, the more they went northward, the more their dock property was improved. He proposed to widen out Strand-street, and to erect a station there of about 800 feet long into which the passenger line could run, coming from north and south ; and the rails could be so placed that they could run the carriage into a siding, and so keep the main line clear. There was only one place where the proposed railway would cause more than existing obstruction, and that was at the Old Church Yard, where the space allowed for traffic was even now allowed to be much too narrow. Mr. Alderman BENNETT asked if Mr. Grantham could tell them what would be the probable cost of constructing the railway ? Mr. GRANTHAM replied that it would be almost impos- sible to give estimates until the principle and details of the seheme were affirmed. The present high rate of money, and the increased cost of labour and materials, also ren- dered any correct approximation very difficult. But making due allowance for these, it was believed that, in its working state, including hydraulic cranes and plat- forms, with stationary steam-power to work them, the cost would be under £250,000 a mile. Then it should not be forgotten that the quays were the property of the Dock Estate, and that, consequently, no land would have to be purchased, and no compensation made to private owners. It was probable, therefore, that .a company could be formed to farm the passenger traffic upon advantageous terms, leaving the goods lines, the sidings, the cranes, and the additional covered quay space entirely free, and under the control of the Dock Estate. There was another important consideration in the fact that, estimating the value of the space gained by the platforms of the railway at the low rate of £5 a yard, there would be a gain of about £210,000 a mile, or nearly equal to the cost of the proposed scheme. The Corporation would also, by the adoption of the plan, be spared .a great part of the sum contemplated for widen- ing the streets. After some further information had been elicited, in the course of which Mr. Grantham stated that the erec- tion of any large building or works on the route of the proposed line would prove fatal to the scheme, and ought, therefore, to be prevented, the visitors withdrew. SUDDEN DE4.M.—A woman, named Martha Freeman, aged about -51, while engaged in washing her floor, in No. 3 Court, Boundary-street, Kirkdale, on Saturday fore- noon, fell down and suddenly expired. On a post mortenz examination it was found that the cause of death was aneurism of the aorta. SUDDEN Dmair.—On Sunday morning, about ten o'clock, as a man, aged 29, named William Savage, was assisting in removing a flat from the Queen's Basin, to go into the river, he, while pushing with a pole, suddenly fell backwards overboard. On being assisted up, he gave three groans and almost instantly expired. The cause of death has been ascertained to have been aneurism of the aorta. SUICIDE IN TICE RIVER YESTBRDAY.-About eleven o'clock yesterday morning, a eoal-heaver who was working on board a flat alongside the steamer Iron Duke, moored just off Birkenhead Ferry, deliberately threw off his jacket and waistcoat, saying "here goes for a dive," and jumped into the river. For some time he swam remarks• bly well towards the shore, and then suddenly disappeared. A small boat with two men in it was in the immediate neighbourhood, but as they supposed the man merely wished to escape on shore they did not proceed towards him until too late. His body was not recovered. SPECIAL MEETING OP THE TOWN COLTNCIL.—A special meeting of the Council is to be held to-morrow (Wednesday). The business fixed for consideration of the meeting is :--1. The Report of the Special Committee appointed on the 7th day of June last, for making arrange- ments for the opening of St. George's Hall by the Conn and to pass such resolutions and instructions with reference to that subject as the Council may think proper.-2. The Mayor's communications. CHILDREN OVERLAIN.—On Sunday morning Mary Beattie, wife of Joseph Beattie, residing at Gerard-street, on awaking about six o'clock, found their infant daughter, about four months old, dead in bed. Deceased had been quite well when its father and mother went to bed, about one in the morning. The mother, who keeps a stall in the market, had been much fatigued, and during her sleep she had accidentally overlain the child, which was quite dead when the mother awoke.—On Friday morning, Mary O'Hare, an infant, ten weeks old, residing with its mother in No. 18 Court, Albert-street, Toxteth-park, was found in bed dead, under nearly similar circumstances. DANGEROUS ACClDENT.—Yesterday afternoon, about two o'clock, as a young lady, accompanied by another lady, was bathing on the beach near New Brighton, she, from some cause, was carried off her feet, and out of her depth. An alarm was' instantly given, assistance was promptly rendered, and, with considerable difficulty, she was removed from her perilous position. The young lady, whose name, we understand, is Miss Rogerson, from Fazakerley, and was residing with Mr. Harrison, South-hill, Toxteth-park, was, under the direction of Mr. Lyth, surgeon, Claughton, conveyed to the Marine Hotel, where, under his care, she was, with some difficulty, restored to consciousness.- FARSGITS.—The Cheshire magistrates have given great umbrage to the people of Parkgate, by having granted an additional spirit-license there, in opposition to a memorial, signed by nearly all the resident householders around. We hear that a public meeting is to be held on the subject, r.7-.d a memorial to the Secretary of State is talked of. There are already five or six public-houses in that small village, which offer quite temptation enough to the bibulous propensities of the fishing population, who indulge in excesses very annoying to visitors, by whom the place is chiefly supported. LATEST INTELLIGENCE T H E T A R VARNA, AUGUST 13.—A fire, supposed to be the work of incendiary Greeks, broke out here on Thursday night, and destroyed a number of houses appropriated as quarters for the troops, together with stores and magazines. Everything moveable, however, was fortunately saved, except the hay, wine, and some camp utensils. Several
