It places within rof each of the general community a succession of works standard excellence, the letter-press of each being interspersed with a variety of appropriate embellish ments. In this manner we have witnessed ter a PP e arance already of several very in the reprints, the most admirable among t hem all b e i ng the one which we have here parti toularised. I t was a happy thought, the selection of rwell's minutely detailed and anecdotal biography ° Dr. Johneon as a subject for the pencils of the arti 'ta ernployed in this enterprise.

SIII,—I commenced my comments on the Cesarewitch Stakes yesterday, and then, according to my view of the matter, disposed of the Wizard of the North's lot. Tom Dawson claims my next attention, not as possessing any particular cracks at the present moment in his lot, but as being an individual, who at the eleventh hour pumps up a crack out of the outside division; in many instances has hit the mark, or if missing it, then second, third, or fourth, or at any rate well up. Cyclops, by Venison, out of Venus, at the feather weight of 4st, has been backed for a great deal of money among the numerous outside dabblers in the odds; he will turn out on this occasion, as he has always done before, of no ser vice whatever. Chief Justice, by the Hydra, out of Theory's dam, 4 years, Est 71b, stands no chance whatever of accomplishing a feat of this kind. I should doubt the running of this nag and Cyclops. Cocktail, by the Provost, dam by Phys,cian, ont of Merry-tricks, 5 yrs, Est 51b, is likely to repeat some of its former anything but merry tricks to its backers, by cutting it long before reaching the winnieg post. Mark Tapley, by the Hydra, out of Windlass. 4 yrst, 6st 1211 e, can not only go the distance but live the pace; but it is very probable that he will be reserved for the Cambridgeshire, as the shorter distance is consider ed to be his forte, in preference to the two miles odd. of the Cesarowitch course. His best perform ances have been last year, at York, then a three years old, with sst 91b on his back, he won the Ebor Handi cap, takiaig only 71b for the year from Clothworker; Champio;a, with a stone extra, a bad third. Also, last year, at Doncaster, carrying sst 91b, he won the Great Yorkshir o Handicap, a mile and three-quarters, giving 41b to Haricot, then in her best form. This year, at Warwick, with Bst 91b up, by admirable jockeyship he won the Trial Stakes over the Mile Course, beating the celebrated Nancy at Ist 91b for the year; since these his performances have been rather mediocre; but in all those races in which ho has been defeated, he has had, to carry in every instance somewhere about or more than a stone heavier than his handicap for the Cesarewitcb ; if ho runs, take care of him. Daw son has yet another mysterious animal behind the scenes in the farm of The Italian, who, though sporting the blood of Touchstone and Florence in his veins, has given us such undeniable symptoms of bad running, that, without biting done intentionally, his chance on this oc casion 'meet be forlorn indeed; certainly his legs are not of the most brilliant description imaginable, and that may account in two instances for his first-rate trials in private, at kd wretched appearances afterwards in public. If, however, he should be meant on the day, at 6st 121 b, I think he will defeat his stable lot, always excepting Mark Tapley. John Day has but one horse in training far this great stake, and that is Mr. H. Hill's Hothorpe, by Cotherstone, out of Liberty, who, having to carry 7st 71b, is completely put hors de combat, and may as well be left at home in his stall. Fobert also sports one at Middleham in Hippolytus, by Emilius out of Fantastic. 3 yrs, sst 131 b. This animal has sprtrag from the outside division to be a considerable pot, lea s been supported 40rimmense sums of money, and is now in the front rank of the favourites. His performances last year were by no manner of means bad ones ; al Good wood, carrying Bst 71b, he was beaten a head b y Ted dington, Sat 121 b, for the Molcoomb Stakes; h e after wards ran. a good third in the Champagne St ekes at Doncasteea won by Aphrodite, Confidence secat d; this year at Chester he won the Dee Stakes, a mite and a quarter, beating the Black Doctor, Mountain la aer, and several others cleverly; at Liverpool, carrying S. st 111 b, over the mile and three-quarters course, he rest second to Ariosto,Bst 816, for the Liverpool St. Leger, JV fountain Deer was again a bad third ; at Goodwood he run into his fancy position—second for the Racing Stake s, won by Confessor; at Doncaster be won a Sweepstakes in .a canter; at Eglinton Park he run second, at Bst 71b, to N Bst 41b, Black Doctor a bad fourth; at the same meeting, carrying fiat 916, he won the Eglinton Park I I andicap, two and a quarter miles, beating Chief Justit ae, 4 yrs, fist 121 b, second, Garforth, 4 yrs, Est 916, u Jul three others not placed. These performances warms at a care ful investigation of his chance, as from his continual dote running he must, with Set 131 b up, be in s position to drub the majority of the light weights. Lord 1 Exeter's lot consists of Little Jack, Reindeer, and Can a. Little Jack, at 7st 21b, will be of no use on tl sits occa sion, and I em afraid that his stable compee rs, at the respective feather weights of sst, and 4st 41b, will figure conspicuously in the ruck. W. Day' a lot have dwindled away from three to one, leaving n ctthing but Terpsichore to represent the interests of this st Y sail stable. She has :a good many admirers at the Fait houses, hut I take it will be nowhere in the race. Mr. Carew's couple, Harp and The Heriot, the ;former by Kremlin, out of Harmony, 3 yrs, sst 121 b, the latter by Velocipedede, out of Lady Geraldine, 3 yrs, 6st 41b, have both been much talked about, declared to be won ders (in a small way, I imagine), and carry :an immense amount of bullion, noabeloeging to the aria tocracy but to the middle classes. Should either of this couple win it will be The Heriot. but lam not at all &enguine on that point. Dockeray's solitary mare in trains ng for this race, Clarissa, by Pantaloon, dam by Glen c oe, out of Frolicsonae, 5 yrs, 7st 61b, ever since she was sold by the confederates to Mr. Lake has been very nx fortunate, either falling lame on the eve of great events, or getting into some, other peculiar pickle; she stands n c, chance of winning the " great go" of next week.—C.To be con cluded to••raorrow or Monday.)

The Resistance troop-ship was lying at the Mole at Gibraltar on Friday last. A slaver, under Genoese colours, taken by the Ri fleman steamer on the coast of Africa with six slaves on board, was sent to Gibraltar as a prize, manned by a crew of her capturers, and arrived there safely on the 26th ult. The Indus, with the heavy portion of the India mails, arrived yesterday from Southampton and Gibraltar. The Indus is on her last voyage until after her contemplated repairs shall have been completed; she will be cut down and lengthened, and made equal in speed to the fast boats of the company. The Tagus, from Constantinople and Malta, was entering the Straits of Gibraltar as the Indus left: 'The Sultan, on her homeward passage from Alex andria and Malta, passed the Indus off Galita on Monday last. The Jupiter, from Constantinople and Malta, passed the Indus during the night of the 27th ult. His Royal Highness the Archduke of Austria, who has been for some time past in the Mediterranean, left Gibraltar, where he had received every possible attention from his Excellency Sir W. Gardiner and his amiable consort, on the 25th ult. His Highness was bound to Malaga. THE BANK FAILURES. FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.) NEWPORT, MONMOUTHSHIRE, THURSDAY EVEN ING.—The apprehension of a complete paralyzation of trade in this town, or especially among some of the iron works ; in consequence of the stoppage of the Monmouth and Glamorgan Bank, is already felt, and will be felt for a long period. There is no doubt, indeed, of two or three large works stopping at once, they having been carried on alone by the heavy drains which their proprietors have been making on the bank, owing to the great depression in the iron trade. The Corm Brane iron works are stated to have drawn 240,0001. or 250,0001. The Blaenaforn and other works, belonging to the same proprietary, are put down as having drawn 150,000/. Rumour as signs these figures to be even below the mark. The liabilities are said to be somewhere about three quarters of a million ; the cash in hand not two thousand, and the other property of the bank trifling. The unfortunate shareholders are greatly alarmed at their position ; many of the smaller ones must be ruined. It is understood that the trustees will be first sued, and that many have already received no tices to that effect. The same proprietary had branches at Abergavenny, Tredegar, Pontypool, Monmouth, and Chepstow. The two former were the principal banks of the mining district surrounding them. Trade, therefore, becomes ruined for the time, and a prospective conti nuance for many years is seen of the same results. The system adopted by this bank was latterly in dicative of its present condition. Tradesmen in the towns named, and Newport, find their bills returned them from the Bank of England, into which this bank had paid them. The unfortunate tradesmen, having met them in due course, have now been called upon to pay anew on the same bills. This is felt to be ruinous to many parties. Failures will therefore ensue in many quarters. The town will suffer a fearful con vulsion this winter in consequence. The West of England District Bank is nowt he only one here, besides the Savings' Ba nk. A gat accession of business is the consequence—a great run upon its gold was also a consequence. They were well prepared. The notes of other country banks are now regarded with apprehension. Only gold is current. This is a monetary crisis which will shake the credit and the stability of trade to an alarming extent. --- METROPOLITAN COMMISSION OF SEWERS.—A new commission for a Metropolitan Commission of Sewers has just issued, in which the following gentlemen are named as commissioners :—Mr. kiward Lawes, chairman ; Mr. S. M. Peto, M.P., deputy-chairman; Major-General Sir John Bur goyne, K.C.B. ; Mr. Thomas Allason; Mr. William Cubitt, C.E. ; Captain Dawson, R.E. ; Captain Harness, R.E. ; Mr. Thomas Hawes ; Mr. J. DI. Rendell, C.E. ; Mr. Robert Ste phenson, M.P. ; and Captain Vetch, R.E. It will be ob served that Lord Ebrington, Sir Henry de la Bache, and Mr. Philip Hardwick have retired from the commission, and that the new commissioners are Mr. William Cubitt, the en gineer, and Mr. Thomas Allason, the architect. This com mission is appointed under the Act passed at the end of last session, continuing the powers given to the commissioners in the various Sewers Acts, but making provisions for the re formation of the constitution of the commission itself. Under this Act two of the commissioners form a quorum, and can exercise all the powers conferred on the body, except in financial matters. The signature of the chairman, or, in his absence, that of the deputy-chairman, is required to sanction all contracts and all orders for imposing rates on different districts within the area. It is to be hoped that the gentle men composing this commission will at once and earnestly turn their att en ti on t o th e su bj ec t of th e genera l d ra i nage , with the view of devising some speedy means of raising money for their operations. A BLIND VISITOR TO THE EXHIBITION.—A blind youth was observed yesterday at the Exhibition, accom panied by his mother, and on her being asked the reason of her son's visit, when he could not see, she said that he was totally blind, b u t h a d b een anx i ous t o come t o ascertain if the sound was as he had imagined it to be, and that he had iu was RsDA notasusual,meetingsattendance—cTonhseidetrheidrd of t g solar but a moderate amount of bu • siness was transacted.

Her Majesty's visit to this important maritime bo rough has taken place under circumstances of a sin gularly inauspicious character. The weather, which yesterday was all that could be desired, underwent a great change during the night, and since five o'clock this morning rain has fallen incessantly. Most disheartening to the people of Liverpool was the change which came over the weather during the night preceding this morning, which bad long been looked to with the utmost anxiety, as forming an era in the history of Liverpool which the inhabitants might treasure up in their remembrances for many years to come, and afford ample scope for pleasurable conversation and description to those who had no op portunity of taking part in a Lancashire welcome to their beloved Queen, esteemed Consort, and illustrious family. Many had been the parties arranged, and the Lancashire witches had long been engaged iu pre paring the most attractive toilettes, not only to pro perly set off their charms, celebrated as they are throughout the length and breadth of the kingdom, but to do proper homage to their Sovereign, and add to the gaiety of the scene. But all pleasurable expec tations were doomed to disappointment. Last night the weather was most brilliant, and, excepting to the professional weatherwise, presaged that a fine day would dawn upon the hopes that had been formed, and enable her Majesty to enjoy the beauty of the Mersey, and the inhabitants on either side of the river to testify their loyalty and gratify their curiosity with a sight of her Majesty inspecting their docks, of which they may indeed well be proud. These hopes, however, were doomed to disappointment, the morning breaking under the influence of a confirmed rain, which continued without intermission nearly the whole of the day. A !ate walk over the route marked out for her Majesty's progress last night, under the influence of a bright moon, showed us that, during the previous two or three days, the people of Liverpool had indeed been busy in preparing for her Majesty's reception. In every place from whence it was possible to obtain a view of the royal cortege stands had been erected, balconies shored up and elegantly decorated, illumination devices in every variety prepared, and flags were flying across every street at almost every third house, whilst the intervening edifices also dis played a variety of colours of every possible form and hue, no inconsiderable number of them bearing loyal inscriptions, such as " Welcome Victoria, our Duchess," " Welcome Victoria, the Queen of Order," " Welcome Prince Albert, the Patron of Art and In dustry," &c. We retired from the inspection of this scene to our hotel, with anticipations that the doings of the day would be grand indeed; anticipations which were at once dissipated upon cur being awakened at early morning by the firing of the artil lery, which boomed upon our ears almost incessantly. It was dismally wet, and another walk through the town—for cabs were not to be obtained for love or money— presented a different scene to our view, the flags were still streaming in the air, but overladen with wet, producing anything but a pleasing effect—many of the devices and descriptions being almost entirely obliterated. The stands looked cold and cheerless. —hardly a person having occupied a seat even as late es ten o'cicck—and the few persons to be seen in the streets being encased in great coats or Macintoshes, and covered with umbrellas. Between nine and ten o'clock, a few of the fair sex ventured forth enveloped in their winter clothing—their dresses tucked up— their underclothing draggled—and displaying, while they attempted to reach the places which they had previously engaged to see the royal pageant, even more of their understandings than would be consis tent with the Bloomer costume. HER MAJESTY AT CROXTETII. Her Majesty's safe arrival at Croxteth from Thorn hill station was announced to you last evening by telegraph. A few additional particulars of the re ception, and royal sojourn under Lord Sefton's roof, are appended. Her Majesty was received by the Countess of Sefton upon the garden-terrace in front of the man sion, and conducted at once to the upper drawing room, where the invited guests were assembled to meet her Majesty. The names of the visitors staying at Croxteth, were, in addition to the suite of the Queen previously mentioned, Viscount Anson ' Mr. Townley and Lady Caroline Townley, Mr. John Townley, M.P., and Mrs. Townley, Mr. Oswald, and Lady Louisa Oswald, Lady Vincent, and Miss Her bert, Mr. Charles Grenfell, M.P., for Preston, the Misses Grenfell, Mr. J. I. Blackburne and Miss Blackburne, of Hale; Major Herbert Byng Hall, Captain and Mrs. Molyneux, and Miss Barnard. Shortly after the Royal arrival, the youthful Princes and Princesses appeared at the drawing-room win dows, and were welcomed most enthusiastically by the tenantry, who, with their wives and families, were ad mitted into the gardens of the mansion, without re serve of any kind whatever. His Royal Highness Prince Albert accompanied Lord Sefton over the home farm shortly after his ar rival, and drove for some distance over the estate. The Prince expressed himself greatly pleased with all the arrangements which came under his observation, and complimented Lord Sefton on the excellent ma nagement exhibited on bis homestead. A suite of five rooms has been set apart for the Royal visitors, consisting of a library, drawing-room, bed-room, a delightfully appointed boudoir, and a dressing-room for her Majesty. The whole of the apartments have been superbly furnished and deco rated for the occasion. Her Majesty and a select of the Royal personages an Earl and Countess of Sefton, the number of guests dined last evening at eight o'clo c k. Viscount Anson, Mr, and L Mr. and Lady Louisa of , suite, consisted of the The party, exclusive M.P., Sir Thomas Mr. John Bent, and Countess of Derby, and Lady Eleanor Hopwood, Earl Grey, the Earl J.

Countess of Derby, w • ohuroanuvgeg, matured the , phaeton, at the Eccleston gate, and followed the royal cortege through the par k, a distance of about five miles. All along the route, through the domai n of the Earl of Derby, were collected here and there crowds of te nantry and others, as well as visitor. from Liverpool and the neighbourhood, who hailed her Majesty with enthusiasm as the royal cortege passed. The tenantry of the Earl of Derby were entertained in the evening in the hall after the true old English fashion. The unfavourable change in the 'weather during the night prevented the possibility o f but, fu lT family, haewhen Earli l y , we agenrehdeae a n d d n t her Majesty en joying, as Phe otherwise I m ght have done, a drive through the grounds this morning. In fact, the rain fell so heavily that it was quite impossible for her Majesty to leave the mansion until the period fixed for the royal departure for Liverpool. An escort of the 16th Lancers under Major Archer arrived at Croxteth at a quarter before t en o ' c l oc k. her Precisely at ten, Majesty left the mansion, en route for Liverpool. The cortige consisted of the Queen's own Carriage and those of her suite. The Earl of Sefton, with his Countess and beautiful daughter, Lady Emma IVlelyneux, accompanied her Majesty in their own carriage. The drenching morning destroyed the gaiety which the preparations to greet her m ; —a.lesty as she passed along the route to Liverpool would undoubt edly have produced under more favourable circum. stances. But the loyalty of the people was in no de gree affected by this circumstance. The road for some distance was thronged with spectators, many of whom preferred to remain exposed to the rain for hours rather than risk the possibility of not obtain ing a view of her Majesty and her Royal Consort. The village of West Derby, through which her Majesty passed to Liverpool, is the most ancient place in this part of her dominions. it gives name to the Hundred of West Derby. King Edward the Confessor bad a castle here, which was :granted, after the Norman Conquest, to Earl Roger of Pole tou, along with all the lands between the two rivers Ribble and Mersey. These lands, including the sites on which Liverpool, Manchester, and all the other great towns of South Lancashire stand, were then of the value of only 2,1751. a year present money. They are now of the value of upwards of 4,000,000/. a year. The manor of Sefton, and other portions of the estates of the ancient family of Molyneux, were granted to an ancestor of the Earl of Sefton, by Roger of Poictou, immediately after the Conquest. ARRIVAL OF HER MAJESTY IN LIVER- POOL. The Mayor of Liverpool (Hr. John Bent), with the high sheriff of the county, proceeded in state, shortly after ten o'clock, to the boundary of the bo rough in the West Derby-road. Her Majesty arrived at this point precisely at half past ten o'clock. The royal carriage paused a few moments to allow the presentation of the mayor to the Queen by Earl Grey. - This ceremony completed, the royal cortege moved slowly onwards by the fol lowing route :—Along West Derby-road, down Brunswick-road, along Moss-street, Daulby-street, and Brownlow-street ; up Brownlow-hill, into Mount pleasant, across into Hope-street, down Hardman street, Leece-street, Bold-street, Church-street, Lord street, Castle-street and Brunswick-street, along the Goree. The enthusiasm of the inhabitants knew no bounds. At every point the royal cortege was greeted with the most enthusiastic cheering, and her Majesty's pro gress through Liverpool will long be remembered by all who witnessed it as one of the most gratifying scenes of loyalty on record in the history of her Ma jesty's unexampled reign. The work of erecting stages along the piers and upon the landing•stages commenced on Friday ; and since that time the preparations have been progressing with all needful dispatch, consistent with security. The seats upon the landing stage were arranged in three divisions, the largest in the centre, extending all the way between the inner bulwarks of the bridges, while the others rise in tiers at either extremity of the stage, north and south, so as to command a prospect of the Queen, and the royal party, as they proceed down the north bridge to embark, in the one case, and up the south bridge, after debarkation, in the other. From all points of the stage, but parti cularly from the centre range of seats, an excellent sight will be obtained of the water excursion, and of the magnificent flotilla of steamers and merchantmen through which the royal yachts will psi. The services of Mr. Benjamin Edging ton, of Duke street, Southwark, had been engaged by the dock committee, for the decoration of the landing-stage and its approaches. The floors of the bridges and the stage were covered with coir matting, and over the matting on the bridges crimson baize was laid. The bridges were canopied with an awning 163 feet in length and 10 in width, the exterior being of canvas, and the interior of scarlet and white drapery. Two circular tents, 36 feet in diameter, have been placed on the piers at the entrance to each bridge. They are surmounted by Rigs, staffs, &c. A smaller octa gonal tent was placed on the landing-stage, imme diately opposite the point of embarkation and de barkation. An awning was spread from the extremi ties of the bridge to the tent, beneath which the Queen was to pass. At the entrance to one bridge of the landing-stage was suspended the shield contain ing the royal arms, with flags pendant from each side; and at the other bridge the shield of the dock committee, suitably accompanied, was placed. The royal standard floated over each of the tents, and from the centre of the stage numerous other flags were appropriately distributed. A guard of honour, composed of a company o f the 23d Royal Welsh Fusileers, with the goat pre sented to the regiment five years ago by her Majesty, at their head, arrived on St . George s Pier at ten o'clock. The officers of the Liverpool Fire Brigade were also in attendance upon the pier. The Earl of Cathcart, General commanding the district, with Colonel Torrens and a brilliant staff of officers, were also in attendance. The royal cortege entered the Goree at 20 minutes after eleven o'cicck, and passed on to the St. George's Pier amid the loud cheering of the populace on all sides. Upon her Majesty's alighting from the royal carriage, she was conducted under a circular mar quee at the end of the corridor leading to the north stage, where the members of the Dock Committee and f the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce were in attendance. There were no scats of any kind in this tent. Her Majesty and the Prince Consort, with the Royal Princes and Princesses, took up their position on one side of the tent, the deputations forming a semicircle around. Mr. Charles Turner, the Chairman of the Dock Committee, was first presented to her Majeaty by Earl Grey, and had the honour of presenting the following loyal addresses from the important com mercial body over which he presides : " TO THE QUEEN'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. " May it please your Majesty,—We, the corporation of the trustees of the Liverpool docks, beg leave, with profound respect, to express our devoted loyalty to your Majesty's person and crown, and our grateful sense of the honour conferred upon us by the inspection which your Majesty has now been pleased to make of the port of Liverpool, and of the docks, and other very extensive maritime works therein, under our management and control. " In common with all our fellow-subjects, inhabitants of this town and neighbourhood, wo have hailed with the liveliest satisfaction and thankfulness your Mrjesty'a determination, accompanied by his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, and other members of your royal family, to visit this great commercial emporium of your dominions; and we venture most respectfully to hope that the acquaintance which your Majesty has now formed with that site of enterprise and industry which, in their manifold operations, contribute so largely to the power sad prosperity of this kingdom, as well as the loyalty and delight inspired by your royal presence, and manifested alike afloat and on shore, and with heartfelt enthusiasm by all classes, and every person present at the humble pageant which your lelejesty has conde scended to accept and grace, will not have proved alto gether uninteresting to your Majesty. " This auspicious visit is the first which circumstances have permitted your Majesty to honour us with, but we cannot but thankfully remember that the illustrious Prince, your royal consort, has before been graciously pleased to give his sanction to, and permitted to be essociated with, his name, a great work—portion of the Liverpool Dock Estate, new in principle at that time here, but now in most successful opera tton ; as well as to afford very seasonable encouragement and support to an institution for the benefit of our sea men, which his Royal Highness will hear with pleasure is largely fulfilling the useful objects which, as its foun der, he ventured to predicate. " That your Majesty may, en some future occasion, bo induced to repeat, and with increasing interest, the fa vour which we now so gratefully acknowledge, and that each year of your Majesty's reign may be rich in such and all other proofs of tho happiness, prosperity, and affectionate loyalty of your people, is our most earnest and devoted prayer. " Given under our common seal, this ninth day of October, one thousand eight hundred and fifty-one.' her Majesty listened attentively to the address, and marked her appreciation of its more pertinent allusions in a very graceful manner. Mr. Horsfall, the President of the Liverpool Cham. ber of Commerce, was next introduced to the Queen by Lord Grey. This gentleman had also the honour of presenting an address from the members of the chamber over which he presides. This address was as follows : " TO THE QUEEN'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. "May it please your Majesty,—Your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, the president, vice-president, the council, and members of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce beg, with all humility and respect, to ap proach your Majesty with feelings of devoted loyalty to your Majesty's throne and person, and with the tender of our sincere and heartfelt congratulations on your Majesty's arrival in this town, accompanied by your Royal Consort and the other members of the Royal Family. And while we feel assured of the deep and lively interest which your Majesty at all times takes in the welfare of every portion of the British empire, we cannot but look upon your present visit us an evidence of the special interest which your Majesty has been pleased to take in the prosperity of the town of Liverpool, and in the promotion of that commercial enterprise which is conducive at once to the peace and prosperity of the country. The happy event of seeing in the midst of us that gracious Sovereign who, in the providence of God, has, for a period of fourteen years, so happily ruled over this country, will, we feel assured, be the means, if pos sible, of increasing that loyalty which has ever charac terised the people of Liverpool, and of cementing more closely the union and affection which ou g ht always to subsist between a Sovereign and a people. " That Almighty God may shower down his richest blessings upon your Majesty, you r Consort, and your to royal children, and that you may lo n g continue govern over a happy and contented people, is the fervent prayer of your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, the president, vice-president , council, and members of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce." The Queen received the address very graciously, and, bowing to the members of the deputation, handed the document to the Secretary of State. Mr. William Brown and Sir Thomas Birch, the members for the county, were present during this ce remony. Mr. Cardwell, M.P. for the borough, Mr. Robert Rankin, Mr. John Aikin, and Mr. F. Shand, were also among the deputation. It was remarked that, notwithstanding the want of accommodation in the tent, and the fact that it was in some measure exposed to the weather, her Majesty exhibited no discomfort, but rather appeared to encourage, by her gracious demeanour, the depressed spirits of the de putation. Her Majesty walked down the closed corridor to the landing-stage, resting on the arm of the Prince Consort. The royal children followed, the Prince of Wales walking with the Princess Royal, and Prince Alfred with the Princess Alice. Her Majesty was preceded by the chhirmau and members of the Dock Committee and the equerries in attendance, and fol lowing upon the royal party were the ladies in wait ing, Earl Grey, the Earl of Carlisle, the Earl and Countess of Sefton, and the members of their youth ful family. As soon as the Queen emerged from the closed corridor, and passed under the awning, a shout of welcome was raised by all the spectators on the platforms running along the landing-stage. For the moment each appeared to forget the pitiless waging of the elements, and hats were raised and handker chiefs waved in every direction. Her Majesty very kindly and graciously acknowledged the royal re ception which greeted her at this place, and passed slowly on to the Fairy royal yacht, on board of which she was conducted by Captain Lord Adolphus Fitz clarence. The engines were presently in motion, and the Fairy moved gracefully off in a southern direction. THE ROYAL CRUISE ON THE MERSEY At ten o'clock we proceeded to take our station on board the Trafalgar, one of the three steamers placed at the disposal of the dock committee, to enable the members of the committee and their friends to ac company the royal yacht round the course marked out for the progress round the river. If the scene was cheerless on.land, it was still more so on the river. It is true that a number of steamers and other vessels were moored in the centre of the river, displaying the colours of all nations ; but still they looked dull, every person on board of them being either out of sight or closely enveloped in dreadnoughts. Shortly after eleven o'clock, the three steamers, Trafalgar, Albans, and Commodore, left their moorings at the Waterloo Parade, and proceeded to take up their sta tions opposite the George's landing stage, where her Majesty's steamer Fairy was moored, waiting to receive the Royal party. As we steamed up along side the Prince's Dock, a few stragglers covered by umbrellas—among whom the ladies were few and far apart as angels' visits—presented themselves to our view on the various standings which had been erected. Approaching the landing-stege, the numbers increased—and the landing•stage, with its gay display of various flags, gave us an idea of festivity which our own comfortless position m a d e us envy—but which we fear none of those even in the covered stands could appreciate. The only relief to the cheerlessness of the scene was the good humour with which the persons on board the pvarersioeunst vessels braving regarded h l e t ss e their orm position—Nviwith t m h ew u cfeh greaterla di es courage and determination than their more hardy companions. At half-past eleven a royal salute an nounced the arrival of her Majesty, and, as if by magic, the decks of the vessels, which a few minutes before were entirely deserted, appeared teeming, not withstanding the rain, which still poured in torrents, with individuals anxious to catch ever so distant a glance at her Majesty. About twenty minutes to twelve the royal standard was hoisted on the Fairy, showing that the royal party was on board. It almost immediately, with its attendant vessels, got under weigh, amidst the cheers of the company assembled ; but what are cheers upon a wet day ? It is impossible, however the heart may prompt, tor the voice to give due effect to the feelings. The royal cortege pro. ceeded over the destined course, which is thus de scribed by a local paper : In sailing up the river from the landing -stage the first dock passed is George's Dock, which is in a great measure concealed by the Baths erected on George's Pier. It was formed in the reign of King George the Third. The Canning Dock, formed during tie regency, comes next. The Albert Dock, opened by the illustrious Prince whose name it bears, is next. The warehouses which surround it are the best built and most commodious in Liverpool. Next (but partly concealed by the warehouses of the Albert Dock) is the Salthouse Dock, formed in the reign of King George the Second, but greatly enlarged and improved during the last five years. The King's Dock and the Queen's Dock, formed in the reign of King George the Third, and so named in honour of that good King and his excellent Queen, are next in order. The Brunswick Dock is the furthest dock (of any magnitude) to the south—in a finished state. It was opened about the year 1826, and is used chiefly for the timber trade. The Har rington and Herculaneum Docks, not yet completed, lie further to the south. The Slogne (as it is called), where the large Halifax and New York steamers ride, is the best anchorage in the river. The water is deep, and the position sheltered by the high grounds from the prevailing westerly winds. The view of the southern part of Liverpool, from the Sloyne, is one of the best on the river. Before the discovery of steam navigation, Birken head contained exactly 500 inhabitants. It now con tains from 25,000 to 30,000 inhabitants, and the whole of the population of the Cheshire shore is at least 50,000. The central part of the town is well seen opposite the end of Woodside Pier. The north part of the town is well seen from Egre mont and New Brighton. The lighthouse, at the entrance of the river, is one of seven lighthouses which exist within the limits of the port. There are also three floating lights, and a powerful bell which rings incessantly by the action of the wave, and of course loudest in stormy weather. The port of Liverpool extends from the entrance to the river Dee to the entrance of the river Ribble. There are five life-boat stations within the port of Liverpool, and numerous steam-tugs, ready to proceed at a momet's notice to the assistance of any vessel that may be in danger. _ The whole of the great sea wall, from Bootle Bay to within a few yards of the landing stage, has been built during the lifetime of her Majesty, and all the docks which it shelters have been formed in the same time. The oldest of these docks, the Prince's, or Prince Regent's, was formed during the latter part of the regency of his Royal Highness, George, Prince of Wales, and was open on the day on which he was crowned as King George the Fourth. All the docks nearer to the mouth of the river have been formed since then ; and the greater part of them during the reign of her present Majesty. The dockgate at the entrance of the Huskisson Dock is eighty feet wide. There is no other dock gate of equal magnitude in the world. It is built to admit paddle-wheel steamers of 2,500 or 3,000 tons. Three others of the docks have gates seventy feet wide. _ _ _ The Ifuskisson, the Trafalgar, the Clarence, and the Coburg, are the four steam docks of Liverpool. The tonnage of the steamers which entered this port in the year ending June 25, 1851, was 1,080,000 tons. In the year 1819, the year of her Majesty's birth, there were only two sea-going steamers in the port of Liverpool, the Robert Bruce, plying to Greenock, and the Waterloo, to Dublin, both of which began to run, for the first time, in the summer of that year. Of 11. , r. Majesty's actual progress little description can be given, owing to the very unfavourable state of the weather—indeed, as far as we could see, it pos sessed no variety—the people assembled at the various points loudly cheering the royal yacht throughout its progress, and the children of the Liverpool national school, who were gathered together at the Queen's docks, attempted to sing the National Anthem, but the unfavourable state of the weather rendered it al most impossible to hear their voices on board the royal or attendant vessels. About half-past twelve her Majesty landed at the stage from which she had departed only about an hour previously, amidst the most cheerful scene of the day—the huzaas of the people, the firing of cannon, and the ringing of the bells of the various churches of Liverpool. During the royal progress an incident occurred, which might have been attended with disastrous consequences to one of the vessels of the dock committee following in the royal course. When abreast of the King's-dock the Trafalgar, not easing her steam as the captain of the Commodore requested she should do, ran into the latter vessel—the Trafal gar's jib.boom coming into contact with the mizen halyard of the Commodore, and causing the loss of the Commodore's top-gallant mast. Considerable confu sion resulted on beard for a short time, but the extent of the injury being found to be but trifling, confidence was restored among the passengers of the Commodore, who were landed almost immediately after those of the royal yacht. HER MAJESTY AT TIM TOWN HALL. The Queen disembarked on to the landing-stage at half- on p pa h st er tw re el t v u e rn o w 'cl i o t u li ck tile HsaemreMeanjte6hutysiawstaiso greeted which had marked her a rr i va l on t h e landing sytagey. Passing from the royal yacht, her Majesty now pro ceeded up a corridor at th e sou th ern end of the e stage, to her. The royalprocession then which returned was in waiting to receive y over St. George a bridge, the Queen' s carri age b e i ng her progre s s i n t o th e t o w n , by thel preceded, a Mayor in his upon her state oil coach. The next point of interest was the Town-hall, otherwise known as Exchange buildings, where the Queen was to receive the Corporation address. The most direct route from the river to the landing-stage was not taken by the royal party, as such a proceeding would have deprived a very large portion of the inhabitants of the borough of the opportunity of seeing her Ma street, Ma jesty. The course taken by the royal cort ege L return from the river to the Town-hall was s a O a s n il f o o i r t l s s - , lows :--Along Goree-Strand-street, round the south front of the Custom-house, apnaiss,s,ic.n,giTtiat,otihu.

Her Majesty alighted at the grand entrance of the Town-hall at ten minutes past one o'clock. Her 111.jesty was received by the mayor end other corporate officers, and conducted up ,the grand stair case, through the suite of draeng=tOonis, intO the large bail-room, where an elegant dais, covered with crimson cloth, had been erected, upon which chairs of state were placed for the _ Royal party. Around this apartment seats were arranged, in an amphitheatrical form, which were chiefly occupied by elegantly dressed ladies. The members of the corporation were the last who entered the apartment, arid they formed in front of the seated spectators. In consequence of the gloomy and lowering state of the atmosphere, the three large chandeliers suspended from the ceilings were lighted, and had the good effect of displaying to better advantage the very gorgeous and appropriate decorations of this mag nificent saloon. As soon as her Majesty's approach was announced all the company rose, but of course no demonstration of applause took place. The Queen and the Prince, with the royal chil dren, having ascended the dais, the Mayor, with the Recorder and the members of the corporation, ad vanced to the foot of the throne. The Recorder then read the following address : " TO THE QUEEN'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. " May it please your Majesty,—We, your Majesty's faithful subjects, the Mayor, aldermen, and burgesiies of Liverpool, approach, with profound respect, to offer the homage of our devoted loyalty, and to express the uni versal joy of the inhabitants of this borough, now for the first time gladdened by your royal presence. " We welcome with delight a sovereign who, display ing from the throne a brilliant example of private virtue, so sways the sceptre of public rule as to unite the hearts of her people in firm and dutiful attachment to her per son and government. " Knowing that your Majesty is ever intent on the welfare of sue realm, we view this gracious visit as a mark of royal regard for the town and trade of Liver poi; and we indulge a hope that your Majesty will have semi with satisfaction the public buildings now in the course or completion, and the arrangements to accom• racdate the shipping of a seaport remarkable for the rapid progress and extent of itc commerce. _ _ Our joy on this auspicious occasion is enhanced by the presence of the illustrious Prince, your Royal Con sort, who, to many well.carned titles to national admi ration and esteem, as the patron of Eciance and improve ment, adds peculiar claims on the gratitude of this com munity —we rejoice et the great work inaugurated here ac h , nl y : dr his teßoyaliolarn t rt heer e 11 e fn structure n i t e e s r spr whichi and ~ e . ha l ; re ' he graciously c rn h aoci lLl wend d his name with de se cn operation,de to found is now completed as a sailors' home. " Thankful for the wise and benign exercise of royal. authority, and for the edvantaites of constitutional go vernment, we fervently pray that many years of public, an d private felicity may be added to your Majesty's reign, and that future generations in this kingdom may long enjoy, under your royal line, such blesings as we now most gratefully acknowledge. " Given under the cornmr.n seal of the borough of Liverpool, this ninth day of October, one thousand eight hundred and fifty-one." The address was received by her Majesty very graciously, and handed to the Secretary of State, who sy lea l m l n a de b n : placed in the Queen's ha r n e d .a s d t i h n e a fo b l e l a o u w t i if n u g ily gr m ac o l d o u u! l r a e t p e l d y, to w n 'l e lic o li f distinctly audbiNbe.orleillc:el—,ui'v%''tifich rendered every —I accept v‘ Her es'ittYhsapilde—asu"relry.ol\ui;ylooryanad.d address, thisam glad borough,to co i n n •c y te convey,throughbest th t.you,nks for t t h o e e e ry in c h o a r b d i i t a a l n w ts e o l l come which I have received from them on the occa sion of my visiting, for the firt time, this great com mercial town, of which I have viewed, with just admiration, the magnificent public works and buildings." The Mayor, Alderman Hornby, and Alderman Holmes (late mayor), were then severally introduced, and had the honour of kissing hands. The Mayor was again introduced, and kneeling down at the foot of the throne, her Majesty received a sword from Colonel Gordon, and applying it to both shoulders of his Worship, dubbed him a knight. The Queen then proceeded to the balcony that commanded a view of the Exchange quadrangle, where, as before mentioned, a great number were ad mitted to receive her—not quite 10,000, as, but for the weather, there would have been, but upwards of 7,000 gentlemen were there assembled, and the in stant the Queen and Prince Albert made their ap pearance a tremendous shout burst forth from the im mense crowd, which her Majesty graciously and re peatedly acknowledged ; then turning and leaving the great hall in the order in which she had entered, she proceeded to the luncheon-room. _ So soon as her Majesty had passed through the room, the loyal feelings of the company in the hall burst forth, and loud and repeated shouts reverberated throughout the corridors along which she passed. There was then a general rush to the balcony wlß'bh had so lately been graced by the presence of Royalty, and where the crowd was still standing, shouting and clamouring for the appearance of the Prince of Wales. Some of the Town Council called upcn them to give three cheers for Sir John Bent—this being the first intimation to those outside of the honour conferred upon the town in the person of the Mayor—and the call was responded to with hearty good will. After this there was a general clearing, in order to arrange for the ball, which was to follow in the same room, and in a few minutes no one remained of all the bril liant assemblage. THE DEPARTURE FOR WORSLEY. Her Majesty arrived at the grand entrance of the Lime-street Station of the London and North-Wes tern Railway at half-past three o'clock, and, together with his Royal Highness Prince Albert, the Princess Royal, and the Prince of Wales, was conducted to the carriages in waiting for the Royal Family. Previous to entering the carriage, her Majesty and Prince Al bert took a very kind and cordial farewell of the Earl and Countess of Sefton, and the Mayor of Liverpool, and repeated their acknowledgments as the train began to move onward. An ex tensive platform had been erected at the station, upon which upwards of a thousand of the principal gentry of Liverpool and its neighbourhood were con gregated, whose reception of her Majesty and Prince Albert was moat enthusiastic and gratifying. In about five minutes after the Queen entered the carriage it was moved forward to the funnel entrance nrni.Wit the salutes of artillery and nine-time-nine British cheers from the assembled spectators. Her Majesty bowed her acknowledgments, and the train disappeared from the gaze of the multitude. Three cheers were then given for the Earl and Countess of Sefton, three more for Sir John 13:lit, and the vast concourse dispersed to their respective homes. [BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.] MAISCHESTEE, OCT. 9.—Her Majesty anu Prince Albert arrived by railway at the Petricoft Station, about four o'clock, an d were rece i ve d t h ere by au: Earl and Countess of Ellesmere, the Duke of Wel lington, the Earl and Countess of Wilton, and others. The royal party embarked in the Earl of Ellesmere's state barge, amid a copious fall of rain, and passed safely along the canal to Worsley, arriving there at five o'clock. Her Majesty was most enthu siastically received by the people, who had assembled on the banks of the canal, but the numbers who had congregated to witness the royal progress were cosh_ paratively small, in consequence of the continued rain that fell.
