Independently of the Schools, it is intended that this In stitution shall possess a spacious Hall, in which popular Lectures may be delivered from time to time. And as the Institution flourishes and funds are supplied, it is intended that every addition requisite for the advancement of _the Pu pils in Literature, Science, and Art, shall be provided, and suitable buildings erected for a Museum, Library, &c. on a scale adapted to the increasing wants of the community. To connect the Institution more closely with the various classes for whose improvement it is designed, and to secure the services of the most efficient individuals in its manage ment, it is proposed that the general direction of its affairs shall be entrusted to a Committee of thirty-six persons, to be elected from the Clergy, Merchants, Professional Men and Gentlemen, Tradesmen, and Mechanics,. Jt is intended that the Committee, in the first instance, shall be elected at a General Meeting of the Donors of £lO 10s. and upwards, to be held on the first Monday in January, 1840, and that its future appointment, in such manner as may hereafter be determined upon, shall be vested in one hundred Life Go vernors. The first Donors of £lOO or upwards, on or before the first Monday hr January, shall be Life Governors, and they shall meet on that day to complete their number, if necessary, and to elect seven Trustees for the Land and Pro perty. The Governors shall also fill up vacancies in their own body and in that of the Trustees. The Committee shall form a Code of Laws, Rules, and Regulations for the future government of the Institution, upon the principles previously stated, and revise, amend, or alter the same from time to time ; but no Laws, Rules, or Regulations, shall be made or altered without the sanction of two-thirds of the Governors, who may be present at a Meeting specially convened for that purpose after seven days' notice, and consisting of not less than twenty-one Members. To erect an Institution worthy of Liverpool, and adapted to its growing wants, a considerable sum of money will be necessary, and it is confidently expected that the determina tion already evinced in this town, to maintain Scriptural Education in connexion with the Established Church. will lead to the speedy contribution of the required amount. Donors of £5OO or upwards, will be entitled to become Vice • Presidents of the Institution for life, with peculiar privileges. Those Ladies who may contribute £lO 10s. or upwards, and Gentlemen £25 or upwards, will be styled Honorary Life Members, and a division of the Lecture Hall will be espe cially reserved for theirssoseausgessdatimps.„,44.

There is nothing more remarkable in the social habits of the present day, and more particularly in those of, the past century, than a general disregard to the maxims of-prudence in regard to health and enjoyment. Hence_iite vast multi tudes who, having acquired the portion 914 i enfeebled con stitution, are doomed to the class of hallitual invalids. Their minds anxious, unsteady, or sluggish, and their bodies weak, the natural functions of life are discharged laboriously, with pain and difficulty. For this state of nervous derange ment, the celebrated CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM will be found to have peculiar efficacy, strengthening the lan guid system and shedding new hope on the mind. A perse verance in its use has been the happy means of relieving many thousands, and of restoring a great number to the per manent enjoyment of life. It is remarkable for its efficacy in all disorders of the digestive organs, and is especially recom mended to those who, from the irregularities of youthful age, habits of studious application, or a life of pleasure, have fallen into a despondent state of mind, and that distressing train of symptoms commonly denominated the NERVOUS. In such persons the mental are not less enfeebled than the corporeal, and to them a remedy that acts with efficacy, with out interfering with domestic habits, is peculiarly desirable. Its primary object is to relieve those persons•vitho, by an immoderate indulgence in their passions, have ruined their constitutions and brought on a perfect tabis domaiis ; or, in their way to the consummation of that deplorable malady, are affected with any of those previous symptoms that betray its approach, as the various affections of the nervous system, obstinate gleets, involuntary emissions, excesses, irregu larity, weakness, total impotency, barrenness, zice. But the relief the ORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM ge nefally administers is not confined to these alone : the --'faletudinarian by birth, who has received from his parents Itie inheritance of a diseased and unprolific frame—the deli cite female, whom an immured and inactive life, togethey with an immoderate use of tea and other weak and -waterr aliments, has, without any fault of hers, brought on all the calamitous symptoms of a consumptive habit, and are, with out timely assistance, sinking into a premature grave! Such as these, under Divine Influence, the Cordial Balm of Sy riacuin will restore to the enjoyment of all the comforts of life. It is universally admired, being pleasant to the taste and smell, gently astringes the fibres of the stomach, and gives hat prover tensity which a good digestion requires. To the young it will afford lasting health, strength, and spirits, in place of lassitude and debility, and to the aged and infirm it will assuredly furnish great relief and comfort, by gently and- safely invigorating the system. It will not give immortality, but if it be in the power of medicine to gild the autumn of declining years, and calmly and serenely protract the close of life beyond its narrow span, this restorative is capable of effecting this grand desideratum. The Cordial is highly esteemed in the East and West In dies for nourishing and invigorating the nervous system and acting as a general restorative on debilitated constitutions, arising from bilious complaints contracted in hot climates. The studious as well as the sedentary part of the community should never be without the Cordial Halm -of Syriacum, which removes diseases of the head, invigorates the mind, improves the rnemori, and enlivens the imagination.

(Private Nntrauee ,First Door up the Pas,-fageJ CAPTAIN PIDDING'S HOWQUA'S MIXTURE, of 40 rare Black Teas, and HOWQUA'S SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER, in Chinese Catty Packages. The Sole Proprietor of the above celebrated Teas is Captain JoAN Ruones PIDI3INCI. Every penuinerackage bears his Signa ture. All others are spurious. The unwholesome trash pirated under similar titles renders this precaution necessary. PIRACY ! CAUTION ! Captain Pidding made eight voyages to China : in securing the exclusive importation of these Teas, and IT purchasers will notice his signature, they will avoid counterfeits. In au action brought by Captain Pidding against a person who counterfeited his .packages, it was Stan, beFore the Sl Vice-Chancellor, on the affidavit of Mr. yan, a broker of 27 years' experience, employed to test these Team, "That Captain Pidding's liowctuA.'s MixTvite' is a Tea of a peculiar flavour, and composed of many varieties of black teas, all of the finest quality ; that it has a character peculiar to itself—A FINE NATURAL AROMA. And "That HOVE 417 A'S SMALL LEAF GUNFOWDER' is Gun powder Tea of the very finest quality, and that such Tea could not be bought in the market." "W. Styan." {. 'Sworn at the Public Office, Chancery-lane, • this Bth day of May, 1837, before me, " Filed Bth of May, 1837." " N. W. SENIOR." It was also proved. on ,oath, that Captain Pidding's Teas were supplied for the Royal use. Dr. Johnson, late Physician to Geo. IV., considers this the best of' Teas, and uses no other.

Lord 1840, price 3d., or 21s. per luindred, containing a Record of the most Important Historical Events li,efative to the Origin and Progress of Papal Usurpation, rsecution, , Idolatry, and Corruption, together with of Useful and Instructive Information of the utmost val to Protestants of every denomination. Compiled by JOSEPH CRISP. This is an admirable compilation of Protestant intelligence, giving an amazing deal of information of the most valuable kind on subjects connected with Popery and Protestantism; The Chronological Table of Popish events is a faithful prac tical exemplification of the spirit of Popery, and contains the best materials possible for rousing the apathy of nominal Protestants. There is nothing like an appeal to History, and if the British people would only Study its pages a little more closely than they do, they would won see the para mount necessity of resisting the encroachments of Popery, and the danger to themselves and their offspring of suffering it to regain power of any shape in these dominions. We earnestly beg our readers to possess themselves of a copy of the Almanack •, and the rich to give it away to the poor. It is admirably adapted to grace the walls of the cottage, and no Protestant mechanic or labourer should be Without it. The wood-cuts by which it is adorned render it a handsome as well as a most useful publication, andit is excellently well designed in all its departments.—Protestant Magazine. Mr. Crisp, the compiler of this admirable compendium of Protestant information, has conferred. a benefit upon his countrymen which, we feel persuaded, will be extensively ap preciated. The intelligence embodied in this almanac is of the highest possible interest and importance. The Chrono logical Tables which it contains are very carefully drawn up. Every Protestant in the realm ought to possess a copy of this specimen of the Liverpool press. We have seldom seen a work of the kind so neatly executed: Every operative ought to purchase it in order to decorate the walls of his cottage with so useful a memento.—Lirerpool Standard. THE PROTESTANT ALMANACK.—WC have much pleasure in being enabled to direct the particular, attention, of our readers to the advertisement its another - colon, announcing the publication of an almanack entitled as above. It has been compiled by our townsman, Mr. Josaph Crisp, and has been issued under the direct patoonage of the Protestant Association. As a calendar for the year it is entitled to much commendation, but the historical reminiscences and refe rences, with the articles contrasting " Popish Professions." arid " Popish Practices," &a., &e., are the most valuable, and will be productive of incalculable good if the alinanack be extensively circulated. Every Conservative Association in England, Ireland, and Scotland ought to purchase large numbers, so that not only each member may have this record of popish fallibility and guilt, framed and glazed, to hang up in his dwelling, but that it may be widely circu lated among the less inquiring population of the country. To the agricultural poor, who have not the frequent opportu nities of hearing the discussions upiii tiiknature of the popish creed which the denizens of the larger'butnufacturing and commercial towns enjoy, this almanack is calculated to prove of the highest interest and usefulness ; and as the price is only threepence, we do sincerely hope and confidently expect that its instruction .will be eXtennyely disF.eminated in such quarters.—Live,pool Mail. Tun - PROTESTANT ALMANACK.—We have before us a very neat and comprehensive almanack for the year 1840, compiled by , Mr. Joseph Crisp, of Liverpool, and certainly we have not met with a production lately which has so deci dedly met with our approbation. It is a complete mullnpc in parvo of the history of Protestantism and the aggressions and persecutions of Rome. All that is distinguished, , and which ought to be borne in mind, of both Protestantism and Popery, may be seen at a glance, and the memory refreshed by its contents. No Protestant ought to be* without it, but it should, as from the extremely low price at which it is of fered it may, be found in the cottaf es of the poor, as well as in the halls of the rich. It does alike credit to the compiler a nd the printer, and we heartily recommend it to our readers. —Wigan Gazette. THE PROTESTANT ALMANACK FOR THE YEAR 1840. — This is a " broad sheet" publication, and it contains a variety of important information, connected with Protestantism and the opposition it has had to encounter. It is very cheap, and it ought to be purchased by every Protestant in the United Kingdom, as it gives in a condensed form a great deal of use ful matter " by way of remembrance," and which they would do well to have stored in their memories.--Dublin Stateamln.

TO THE PUBLIC OF LIVERPOOL AND ITS NEIGHBOURHOOD. TI - AVING been appointed to take the Management of various Societies connected with the Town of Liverpool, I feel it my duty to lay their several claims plainly and clearly before you. The very little support whigi even the most favoured of them have received, eznirsiOseing the wealth and importance of the Town, must be acVninted for, I imagine, from their objects and views not having been prominently brought be fore all classes of the Inhabitants. I may just state, in corroboration of. this, it is an as certained tact, that out of the 30,000 names contained in the Liverpool Directory, only 15;0 persons subscribe to ergs.! of the Public charities of the Town. I wilt now give a brief summary of the objects of the va rious Societies, and shall be in attendance at my Office every day, from Ten to Four o'clock, where I shall be most happy to receive Donations or Subscriptions, large or small, to any or all of the following Associations. Your obedient Servant, JOSEPH CRISP, 38, Church-street. Liverpool Protestant Association. The object of this Association is,—First, to combine in one Christian brotherhood of self-deferics all who truly love true re ligion and genuine liberty ; all who sincerely advocate the free circulation of the orimitilated and unadulterated Word of God ; all who assert and defend the right of private judgment ; all who venerate the inviolable sanctity of an oath ; all real loyalists who maintain the unrivalled and universal supremacy of the King or Queen of England within these realms, arid renounce, abjure, and detest any allegiance whatever to any ! foreign po...zr or potentate, ecclesiastical or civil. This is the direct object of our Protestant Association, considered its Scriptural fonntiatioss, and' its national eAercLie. Our second object is, to asl.llreas onrselres Witt' earnest atre,seion to thosecf otsr fellosesciahntrsmen who have Stie snisfortnne still to labour under anti-scriptural and anti-national pre- judiees ; who are denied the free circulation of the pure word of God, and the right of private judgment ; who are taught that oaths, under certain circumstances, may and ought to be violated ; and who arc commanded to yield their first and highest allegiance to a foreign ecclesiastical authority. - The alarming spread of Popery, and the apathy of British Protestants, render the exertions of this Society of the most vital importance to- the well-being of the: country, and the continuance of the invaluable blessings of civil and religious liberty. The mode of working is, by Petition, Public Meetings, and the circulation of Tracts, &c. containing useful and important information. The Association being now in active opera tion, stands much in need of increased funds. ! The rule of the Society constituting membership, is as follows That all persons professing faith in the Holy Trinity, and being members of, or friendly to, the Established Church of Eng land and Scotland', who *hall subscribe five shillings annually, or give a donation of one guinea at any one time, shall be Members of this Association." Church Missionary Society. The objects of this Society arc 'so well known that it is needless bow to recapitulate them. I would, therefore, merely add, that the deficiency in the Society's funds of nearly £ll,OOO, and the strong and urgent calls from India for more Missionaries, render the claims of the Society more than ever pressing. _ _ _ Hibernian Society. The following facts are sufficient to show-the importance of this Society in promoting the spiritual welfare of the Irish people : • 1 .—There are hi Ireland between two and three millions of Irish-speaking population, of whom two millions spus.k English 663 well ; and between five and six millions who speak English exclusively., 2.—Among the English-speaking population, who are a large majority of the Irish nation, the London Hibernian So ciety is principally employed ; while, at the same time, for those who speak Irish only, it appoints Irish-speaking Scripture-readers, and forms, where it is required, Irish classes in its schools. 3.—lt is the principal Society to which the Irish Clergy, and Protestants in general, look for aid in establishing and maintaining their Scriptural Schools, and a far greater number of applications are received from them, than, in the present state of the funds, can be complied with. 4.—The number of Day-shools is' 1157, containing 91,066 Scholars, of whom 34,067 are Children of Roman Ca tholic Parents. Will you not help Ireland by supporting such a So ciety as this ? Every security is . given that your money will be prudently expended. No aid is afforded except where the Rides of the Society are abided by ; the prin cipal of which are, that the whole Scripture shall be read in the Schools, and portions committed to memory ; and that every School shall submit to a quarterly examination by a competent Inspector, whom the Society appoints. Its plan is so econimical that a child is educated for a year for little more than half-a-crown. Have you thus educated a child — or, if not, will you not do it ? Lancashire Lord's Day Society. The sanctities of the Divine appointment of the Lord's Day are continually invaded from new quarters, and among increasing multitudes, by the spirit of commerce, or of worldly pleasure ; while the bulwarks of law, raised to defend them, are no more efficient for that object than the fortresses of antiquity to resist the alterations and improvements of modern warfare. On these accounts, there seemed an abso lute necessity that the friends of religion—who feel the favour of God to be the only safety and prosperity of a people— should combine in some effort tniore lii,!werfni 'than could Timteedlicorta bell - MUM exertione,libiFever zealously made.) to stand in the breach against the wide and wasting flood of Sabbath violations, by the formation of a Society which should have for its object the amendment of public feeling and principle on this momentous subject—the diffusion of spiritual light upon the common mind—the assistance of those who might wish for help in the high duty of keeping holy the Lord's Day—and especially of such legislators as might have Christian courage to lift up their voices in the deliberate assemblies of the nation against this great trans gression of the country. The Society's operations are carried on by the instrumen tality of placards r addressesomanorials, tracts, and petitions to Parliament. Church Pastoral Aid Society. This Society has especial claims upon the town of Liver pool, as it is the means of providing many additional curates and scripture readers, at an annual expense of £590, while the returns from the town for the past year were but £ll7. Surely Liverpool should, as an auxiliary, return more than she receives. The three following societies are especially devoted to the benefit of the seamen, and of those engaged in navigation on the canals, and therefore deserve the cordial support of all who are connected with the shipping and commerce of this port. The Mariner's Church Has now been established, under the patronage of the Bishop of the Diocese, for more than twelve years ; and, as far as its means will allow, is carrying out the objects of the institution with increasing benefit. But their exertions are limited, for want of further support, and owing to the necessary repairs of the church, which have been lately effected, the Society is still involved in debt. It is, therefore, confidently hoped that the public will assist in liquidating this, and by increased subscriptions enable the committee to enlarge their sphere of usefulness, by opening schools for the children of seamen and flatuien. The Naval and Military Bible Society, and Prayer Book and Homily Society, Are also in great need of assistance. Their object is to visit, the shipping, by means of an agent who is employed for that purpose, and to supply the crews with prayer-books and homilies, and copies of the Scriptures, at reduced prices ; and, by slaw. of the Parent Nav al and Military Bible Society, it is their wish to place on board every ship, Slat, and steam boat, which leaves the port, a gratuitous supply of the Scrip tures, for the use of the crew (in proportion to the number of the men), where there are no means of selling them. I trust that the claims of these Societies will meet with a willing re sponse from all who are interested in the well-being of the seamen, as their funds are totally inadequate to carry out this desirable object without involving the parent society in a considerable loss. Trinitarian Bible S ociety. The peculiar object of the Trinitarian Bible Society is to publish faithful Protestant Versions of the Holy Scriptures, in the Portuguese, Spanish, and German languages, in the translation of which they are already engaged : and it will be the particular 'design of the Liverpool Auxiliary, in addition to the ordinary modes of circulating the Word of God, to em ploy an intelligent pious person, as an agent, to visit the abodes of the poor and ignorant, whom there is no other means of reaching, for the purpose of inducing them to take au inte rest in the Holy Scripture, and to become purchasers by weekly or monthly subscriptions. Jewish Institution. The object of this Institution is to provide a temporary asylum for enquiring and converted Jews, and after eighteen months! experience, it has amply answered the benevolent intentients of the:promoters. While the inquirer can obtain relief Sor.a time, where he may be protected against the persecutions of his brethren, . the mode of living is so plain as not to offer an inducement to false or insincere professions. Much good is being done; but the funds are so inadequate, that unless friends come forward more liberally with their means, the whole institu tion must be given up. Irish Sunday School Society, To promote the establishment and facilitate the conducting of Sunday schools in Ireland, by disseminating the most approved principles for the management of such schools, by supplying them with spelling-books, and copies of the Sacred Scriptures, or extracts, without note or comment, either gra tuitously or at reduced prices. Society for Promoting Christianity amongst the Jews. The name of this Society sufficiently explains its object. It is to lead the lost sheep of the house of Israel to that Sa viour whom they crucified. Christians are under a heavy obligation to the Jews, for it was by them that the Sacred Volume was preserved, and to them they stand indebted for Christianity itself. But they should feel interested on their behalf, not only for the blessings of the past, but on account of the glory that is in store for the world when the Jews shall be restored to their own land. There are 50 Agents in connection with the Society, and of these, eight church clergymen and twenty-three missionaries arc converted Jews. The Society has the strongest claims upon all Christians. Achill Mission. Dingle Mission. The whole income of ell the above Societies together, in the wealthy and important town of Liverpool, with a popula. tion of above 200,000 persons, amounts to little more than £3OOO. Surely there are 20,000 persons in the town (a tenth of the population), who could afford ss. per annum to .the whole of the above Societies together, and this would produce £5OOO. Or, are there not ten congre gations, from each of which 500 persons could be found willing to subscribe 2s. 6d. per annum to any of the above of which they approve ; and this alone would produce £5OOO. Let every one do something, he it ever so small, and the funds of all will shew a vast increase at the end of 1840, when, God willing, I hope again to lay the finan cial state of the various Societies before the public. In the mean time, I shall be most happy to give every informationin my power respecting the operations and general effi ciency of allthe above atsociations. Collecting Boxes and Cards may be had by any one who will kindly take charge of them. .1. C.

TN order to provide for the Inhabitants of Liverpool an Education suited to their wants, upon the vriost moderate terms, and, at the same time, to maintain indissolubly the. connexion between sound religion and useful learning, it is proposed to found a New Establishment, to be called "Tint LIVERPOOL COLLEGIATE INSTITUTION—FOR THE. EDUCA TION OF TUE COMMERCIAL, TRADING, AND WORKING CLASSES." in which instruction in the doctrines and duties of Christianity, as taught by the United Church of England and Ireland, shall, for ever, be communicated in combination with Literary, Scientific, and Commercial information. And, with a view to the permanence of the Institution upon this basis, it is intended that all its Officers, Professors, and Masters, except the the Teachers of certain Foreign Lan guages, shall he members of the Established Church, but that no distinction shall be made in the admission of Pupils, and that only the Children of members of the Church of England shall be required to learn the Church Catechism. The more effectually to secure the assistance of all ranks of society in accomplishing .the objects 'of this Institution, it is proposed that the instruction which it will afford shall be given in three distinct departments, namely, two Day Schools, and an Evening School. The system of Education proposed for the first school will include the Classics, English Literature and Composition. Geogra phy, Civil and Ecclesiastical History, Modern Languages, Mathematics, Natural History and Philosophy, Chemistry, Drawing, and every other branch of useful learning. The various classes will be placed under the care of able Univer sity Graduates, whose constant duty it will be to provide in the most effectual manner for the great objects of education —moral and religious training, the communication of gene ral knowledge, and specific preparation for the after-pursuits of life. The instruction to be given in the second school will be on a more limited and less expensive scale ; but it will embrace the various requisites of a sound general ethics tion, so as to enable the pupils to enter upon the business of life with advantage to themselves and the community. The masters engaged in this department will be likewise carefully selected, with a view to their literary and scientific attain ments; and it is confidently anticipated that this division of the Institution will become highly popular. The exercises of each School will be commenced and terminated with prayer, at which the attendance of every pupil will be required ; and the reading and exposition of the Holy Scriptures will form a portion of the daily business of the Schools. The Even ng School is principally designed for the instruction and int provemeut of those whose education has been comparatively neglected in early life ; but provision will be made in it to enable young men to pursue particular branches of Classical, Mathematical. or Commercial knowledge. Classes will be organised for the study of Navigation, Geography, Nautical Astronomy, Naval Architecture, and Civil Engineering, which branches will he taught on a scale commensurate with their growing importance to the interests of this port --and, with a view of stilt further adding to the usefulness of these classes, Yr' cv • , LIZ jt K ie . itOn' V. 1100
