That the Steam-vessels carrying the mails, and under the or ders of the Post Master General, are prohibited from taking such_Pilots or their Apprentices on board. Petitioners further state, that the printed by-laws of the port of Liverpool, however they may be adapted to the wants and circumstances of Vessels navigated by the aid of Sails, arc in compatible with the nature and wants of Steam-vessels, and the more so as the system of priority, which prevails among the Pilots' Boats at sea, without any regard to the situation or such boats, or the difficulties or delay which might take place in boarding the Steam-vessels, would be wholly destructive to the use of Steam-vessels, were they compelled to wait and re ceive Pilots out of such Pilot-boats as might be first in rotation, and which would often cause such delay as would occasion the loss of the Tide, and the consequent risk and injury to their Vessels and cargoes. That, further, such Pilot Laws actually impose a heavy penalty on Pilots presuming to pilot Vessels under such circum stances as are frequently occurring in the use of Steam-vessels; thus making it au offence to do that which the owners of Steam vessels absolutely require for the protection and safe navigation of their Vessels, in the ordinary pursuit of their trading. That Masters of Vessels of 100 Tons Register, and which arc generally of 120 Tons actual burthen, arc permitted to Pilot their own Vessels, yet the Masters of Steam-vessels, although in few instances do they actually burthen per cargo more than such Sailing-vessels are obliged to receive Pilots or pay their charges of Pilotage, and are compelled to place their Vessels under the control of such Pilots or their Apprentices. That the Apprentices .of Pilots, although they may not have served one half of the time stated in their Indentures, and which time is essential to obtain a competent knowledge of their buiiness as Pilots, are, nevertheless, for the want of more competent and experienced Pilots, frequently licensed by the Pilot Committee to act as Pilots, and your Petitioners are thereby compelled to place their Vessels under the entire control of such Apprentices, or take the risk of the cargoes on themselves. That the Petitioners strongly object to the system of licens ing Apprentices of Pilots of the tender age of eighteen, and after thus having . served but three years of their apprenticeship; such system of licensing Apprentices being for the emolument of their respective masters, the charge for Pilotage being the same whether a Vessel be Piloted by an Apprentice or a full journeyman Pilot. That such is the effect of this system of monopoly and exclu; sive Pilotage, that the Pilot boats, of which there are but eleven for the Port, including the three separate entrances into the same, and extending along a Coast of fifty miles, that the right' of ownerage of one of such Boats, which originally cost £lOOO, now actually sells for the enormous suin.of near i:10,000. That the Steam-vessels of the Company arc not ensured, and Petitioners necessarily are, alarmed at the consequences of being thus compelled to allow. the authority of their Commander to be thus superseded by such Apprentices. Petitioners state, that there is at present, and has been, for ome time back, a deficiency of Pilots in the Port of Liverpool, and that there is not a sufficient number for the wants of the port, and the extensive line of coast along.which they . are spread, and that the only measure which Petitioners are informed is about to be adopted to supply such deficiency is the compelling the• Master Pilots to receive an additional number of Appren tices, but which, though it admits the want of a sufficient num ber of Pilots, cannot be available, at least under three years. That the redress which your Petitioners seek by the interpo sition of Parliament has been actually granted by the proper authorities to the Owners and Masters of other Steam-vessels in other Ports, among, which is the important Harbour of Cork, the Commissioners of that Harbour having wisely determined that no charges should be made except for services actually re quired and performed; and your Petitioners are further ena bled to state, that the system of compelling Coasting Vessels to take such Pilots and pay such charges, as the Corporation of Pilots in the Ports of Liverpool and Dublin direct, does not prevail in the Ports of Glasgow, Plymouth, or London. Petitioners state, that they have lately proposed to the Pilot authorities of the Port of Liverpool to examine and license the Commanders of their several Steam-vessels, and that they have proposed and are willing to pay annually for each of such licenses the sum of £25, over and above all the deductions and allowances now made for the Pilots, in support of the private funds of their establishment. That finding, from the proceedings of your Honourable House, that a Select Committee is about to be appointed " to inquire into the existing Laws and Regulations on Pilotage, with a view to alter and amend the same,' your Petitioners humbly pray your Honourable House to take the premises into consi deration, and to allow Petitioners to be heard by themselves or Counsel before such Select Committee, with the view to such inquiry as may lead to the relief sought for by your Petitioners.

A :RNOLD'S MAGAZINE OF THE FINE ,ARTS, ±1... and JOURNAL OF LITERATURE AND SCIENCE.; Embel lished with a Portrait of an eminent Artist, and a subject of Sculpture. ADDRESS. 'Tie Proprietors of ARNOLD'S LIRMARY OF TiiE FINE ARTS respectfully inform their Friends and the Public, that, in Max next, they will commence a New Series of their Journal, when they will introduce subjects of General Literature and Science, combined with the matter usually discussed in the publication. • In adopting this course, they will be acting in accordance with the wishes of many intelligent correspondents. They, however, feel it to be their duty to ma'ntain the leading cha racter of their work, as well from a esire to manifest their gratitude to those persons who have iitherto honoured them with their patronage, as from a con ction that the success of every publication must, in a gre• neasure, depend upon its consistency. The Fine Arts wil therefore continue to form the leading feature. In a country Ir6senting so glorious a retrospect of departed greatness, the Proprietors conceive that the Sculptural Monu ments in our most celebrated cathedrals must afford pleasing subjects for contemplation. It is therefore intended, in the New Series, to commence with the Monuments in St. Paul's Cathedral; and in the first, and each future Number, to give iv, Biographical Sketch of , some distinguished Sculptor, in coll.:, nection with his works. It is needless to expatiate on the beauty and utility of sculpture; it claims the merit of the earliest antiquity of all the arts, according to the best received opinions. But it has higher claims on public consideration ; is not only emulative in its character, as respects the artist, but has a tendency to superinduce, in all men desirous of handing down their names to posterity, a performance of deeds worthy of commemoration. Of this fact, all people must be sensible, who have visited St. Paul's Cathedral, and viewed the forms of distinguished persons there enshrined. Who can look on the monument of Howard without feeling a generous glow of ad miration for the philanthropy of that great man ; or view the monuments of Nelson, and Collingwood, Abercrombie, Sir John Moore, and other heroes who have sacrificed their lives in the service of their country, without sentiments of grati tude ? Such instances also promote a national taste. The Proprietors also intend to give an occasional represen tation of the paintings in some of the public and private galleries of England, and to present Portraits of distinguished Painters, together with biographical sketches. But as this publication has Changed editorship, and has received a large accession of literary and scientific communi cations, it is their intention to present a few articles on Polite Literature, and of the various scientific improvements going forward. This will necessarily cause an alteration in the title of the periodical, which will from May next be called Arnoles Magazine of time Fine Arts, and Journal of Literature and Science. The Proprietors, in conclusion, take this opportunity of ex pressing to their friends and the public their gratitude ; assur ing them that every effort shall be used to render their Journal amusing and instructive, and that the change of editorship shall hot derogate from its merits.

THE ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANNICA forms a Dictionary of Arts, Sciences, and Literature, on the most improved 'and comprehensive plan. It was the first work of the class which aspired to embrace all the departments of human knowledge; and the superiOrity of its method, as well as the general merit of its articies, have obtained for it a larger share of success and approbation than ever attended any similar undertaking. It has. been the leading object of its conductors to combine abstract with practical, and solid with pleasing information, in such proportions as4vould be most u ul a n d m os t accept able to the public—to flpliver the tr h of science in th e mos t accurate and intelligible form, an t the same time, to pay due attention to those branches o knowledge which, thougn not admitting of a scientific shape, are yet deservedly popular, and have a powerful influence on the taste, habits, and cha raker of the individual—in a word, to render the Work st once a Dictionary of Science, a copious - abstract of Literatin:e and Philosophy, and a book of Universal Reference. Of their success in carrying this plan into execution, it is scarcely necessary to speak. The publication of So: EDITIONS, with successive improvements, and the sale of upwards of Thirty Thousand Copies, afford unequivocal proofs of the high ests mation iu which the work has been held. The SEVENTH EDITION, :now in course of publication, has received a variety of important corrections and improvements. In the execution of these, the EDITOR enjoys the assistance of the eminent Literary and Scientific men whose lakours have reflected so high a lustre on the late SI;PPLEMENT and he has pisg secured• the co-operation of many other distinguished authors who had not before contributed to the Work. The Proprietors therefore feel' assured, that the present EDITION of the ENCYCLOPMDIA BRITANNICA will form the most ralnald4s Digest of Human Knowledge that has yet appeared in Britain, in the convenient form of a Dictionary.

DESVIGNES and Co., Brandy Distillers, Golden. square, London, begs to call the • tention of the Trade to their very superior BRANDY; an , without the aid of names t r affidavits to sanction its pu and wholesome qualities, confi dently asserts it to be infiu ly superior to any offered of the manufacture of this country. I'hc flavour being . embodied, it stands the test of mixing equal to the finest Cognac, at little more than half the price; and the Distillation being superin tended by a person who has been brought up in a Brandy Dis tillery in Prance, gives it the advantages of being, as nearly as possible assimilated to Cognac Brandy, from the particular process pursued by E. H. D. and Co. J.
