MANCHESTER 'l'oWN HALL—The last number of Baines's " History bf Lancashire" contains, amongst other interesting matters, the following account of the fresco paintings in this magnificient building :--" The present works in the Town Hall, Manchester, are said to be conducted on the most sure principles of the art, by Augustine Aglio. The . subjects re presented are as follows :—At the west end, (which is now completed,) the dome, representing the British nation in the allegorical figures of England, Ireland, and Scotland, guarded by Justice and Strength, repelling the enemies:of the kingdom —followed by various other groups of Genii carrying the tro phies of her victories. In the large space of the wall, forming the end of this compartment, is represented the first discovery of North America by Sebastian Cabot, and the officers of the expedition hoisting the British flag, taking possession of the country in the name of the King of England, (Henry VII ) commemorative of the commencement of the commerce of England with the natives of the new world. This7iS surmounted by an elliptical panel, on which is a basso relievo in stucco, re presenting Neptune offering the trident to Britannia, &c.—em blem of the sovereignty of the sea. Opposite to this compartment, and over the chimney-piece, in black and gold marble, is a view of the Temple of Ornbo, in Egypt, with a small caravan of Eng lish travellers halting, the British flag Waiving over the tent of the travellers. This is surmounted by a long basso re lievo, representing Egypt offering the commerce of the Nile to England. At the east end, the dome represents Britannia crowned byFame, as if commanding peace to relieVe human kind from the sufferings of a long war, while the arts and sciences are rejoicing, and offering their tributes. On the left of Briton nia, Ceres, escorted by a number of Cupids, distributes the plen tiful contents of her Cornucopia, and is followed by a figure, em blematical of Munificence, offering to grant Britain and her So vereign various emblems of honours and riches, as rewards to those of her sons who have, by their services, best deserved them. Religion follows, protected by the angel of Truth, who overturns her principal enemies, Hypocrisy, Superstition, and Tyranny, who are combated by the strength of public opinion, represented in an emblematical figure; armed with the fasces. Over the chimney is a picture representing the meeting of Lord Macart ney and the Emperor of China. This is surmounted by a basso relievo, representing England on her throne, surrounded by Fame and military trophies, receiving the offers of trade by the various nations of Asia. In the great space opposite to this, and equal to the west end, is a grand subj ect representing Nadir Shah granting the exclusive privilege of trading with Persia, to the Merchant Adventurers' Company of London. The ellip tical panel over this represents, in .basso relievo, Britannia veceivin from Vulcan the efforts of his Cyclops in the of machinery, &c. The splendid painting of the. dome represents Jupiter, surrounded by the Gods of Mythology, sending Apollo and Mercury to the earth to instruct mankind. The four spandrils' in the angles, supporting the dome, repre sent four allegorical figures of the Four Quarters of the Globe. In the two elliptical panels, that over the windows of the front. • of the building represents, in basso relietos, of stucco, Prome ' %hens delivered by Hercules; and its opposite, Apollo and the Muses on Mount Parnassus; and exactly over the windows in a long line, abasso relievo represents the departure of the Argo nauts, and the feats of Jason in the conquest of the Golden Fleece ; while the whole is completed with a griand picture over the chimney facing the windows, representing the meeting of the Emperors and Kings, &c., with the Prince Regent, in Carlton-house, at the restoration f general peace in 1814. In - the whole of the distribution of this grand design,' the object of M. Aglio has been to commemorate the principal subjects which sistablish the glory of the British empire, in arts, sciences, manu factures, and commerce, as well . as military power, and great political influence, in the four quarters of the globe. The size of the two great paintings, on the east and west euds, is 37 feet, (including the two ends which form a panoramic representa tion,) and. 16 feet high; those over the chimney are 14 feet long by 10 feet high; and the large picture in tire centre, 30 feet long by 15 feet high." HOLLAND BESHREWED.—"Beshrew me," said the President of the Council to Lord Holland, " beshrew me, but—" "My dear Marquess," interrupted the Chancellor of the Duchy, "do not use that word; if you knew as well as I unfortunately do, the unpleasant, nay torturing feeling it conveys, you would ex elude it from yourvocabulary." ANTI-TOBACCO SOCIETY.—A new and very . commendable Society has been recently formed at New Paltz," in tne county of 'Ulster, the members of which have pledged themselves not to use tobacco themselves, and to discountenance, So far as they may be able, the use of it by others. About fifty persons have enrolled themselves members of the Society; and if the example should be generally followed, which hasleen so salu tary in the rejection of other stimulants, we hope that the character of our country may be redeemed—that the carpets of ladies may be no longer spoiled by expectoratious of the nau seous. juice, nor . our olfactories annoyed by the fumigation of blacks and blackguards as they walk our streets.

THE PETITION OF SHIPOWNERS TRADING FROM LIVERPOOL. TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. Sin,—This petition was presented to the house of Commons, by Mr. Ewart, on Wednesday last, and has been since copied into the public papers. It prays for relief from assumed causes of depression and distress to our shipping, and is certainly, al together, an extraordinary production, drawn in a peculiar manner, and constructed of remarkable materials. The practical reader of this petition will soon be satisfied that there is mere meant by it than will meet the eye of an ordinary observer; that it has . been got up for another and more peculiar object, to which the shipping interests are made the stepping stone; that is, to bolster up' the injurious claims, again put for ward in this new channel, that have been made; by the refiners to use foreign sugars, and particularly those .of the Brazils, which they were unfortunately permitted to do in 1830 and 1831, to the great injury of the revenue. Of this the government are now fully satisfied. As many of the assertions made in this petition are either un connected with the question, or unfounded in point of fact, I shall proceed to examine them separately. Two causes arc assigned, in the first clause, for this alleged depression; the poundage paid by seamen to Greenwich Hos pital, and our system of manning the navy by the impress of seamen during war. What these have to do with the question I cannot discover. The small contribution to the Hospital is for the support of the aged, infirm, and disabled, of their own body, and is paid by the seamen, not by the owners. We are now in the eighteenth year of peace and freedom from impress ; how then is it possible any injury can be inflicted by a cause that does not exist ? But, in truth, these are merely thrown out as tubs to the whale, to cover other and deeper objects. The next clause complains of injury and want of employ ment, because certain productions of foreign countries and co lonies are not admitted for consumption here. The articles referred to are not specified, but it is clear that they can only be such as we receive abundant supplies of from our own colonies and possessions in the East and West Indies. These supplies are all brought by British vessels; in quantity, particularly of sugar and coffee, they exceed our consumption, leaving an excess for exportation; more is therefore not required; and if such of foreign production were to be admitted, they must be substi tuted ; therefore, such a change could be of no advantage to British shipowners, since whatever number of ships might be employed in importing such foreign produce, a similar number would be displaced and thrown out of employment, by so much less in proportion being brought from our own colonies and possessions. The result of such a measure Would therefore be not to provide additional employment for British ships, but to benefit the growers of foreign produce at the expense of our own; a fact that must be evident to the most superficial ob- server. I consider the next clause to be framed for the object of de luding the ignorant and casual reader. This effect has already been produced on the editor of the Morning Chronicle, who has adopted the statements of the petition fur gospel, and, without further inquiry, has become their advocate. This clause states advantages said to be enjoyed by American and other shipping over British, in trading between foreign ports; those named are, commissions paid to foreign agents, and the risk of our vessels having to leave their discharging ports in ballast. I beg to ask these petitioners whether all foreign ships are not, in foreign ports, subject in all respects to similar charges and commissions that British arc liable, to? Take, for example, such as Ham burg, Amsterdam, Petersburg, and Trieste. And is not the chance, in such instances, for British vessels procuring freight for ports in the United Kingdom greater than that of foreigners to procure such for the countries to which they belong? And do not British vessels possess the advantage of going loaded from home on their outward voyages ?—a facility and benefit which few foreigners enjoy. So much for these assertions. But the next chuse shows the cloven foot; it contains the cream of the petition, and puts forth the true object to which these petitioners appear to have lent themselves. It shows pretty clearly who the parties are with whom this petition has originated, for they do not hesitate to pray fur the admission, for home consumption, of the sugar and cope of the Brazils; on which it may be remarked, without calling in aid that protec tion which is so justly due and given to British colonial inter ests, that such produce is the fruits, not only of slave labour of the worst possible character, over which we have neither influ ence nor control, such as we possess in our own colonies, but of a trade iu slaves carried on legally, until within the last two years, when it was outwardly abolished, though still known to be the source of a continued illegal traffic. 1 know not who prepared, or with whom this remarkable pe tition originated, but to me it appears to carry the impression of the pen of a certain pamphlet-writing Brazil merchant, who is known not to be very particular about the selection of his facts, or the accuracy of his statements. If so, he must have had some Irish friend at his elbow; for, in his eagerness to prpmote his object, he overshoots the mark, and asserts, in this petition, that if this produce were allowed to be consumed here, a great part thereof would afterwards be exported in British vessels! flow it is first to be consumed, and afterwards ex ported, remains to be explained. It was stated in a petition from the Brazil merchants, lately presented to the House of Commons, that because the sugar of that country was not admitted to be refined here, British ves sels sent out loaded with manufactured goods were at times forced to return in ballast. I wish the parties had taken, or would now take, the trouble to favour us with the name or names of any British ship or ships that have returned from the Brazils to the United Kingdom in ballast. Until this is done, I must deny the truth of the assertion. It is true that it has •happened that when crops were deficient, or the supply of ship ping overdone, a very few British vessels have gone from the Brazils to the West Indies to seek for freight; so they have done at times from the River Plate, and other quarters; and so, under similar circumstances, ships have at times gone from our West India colonies to North America for the same object; which is also occasionally the case when there is an excess of shipping in the ports of our possessions and colonies in the East Indies, as well as in all foreign ports. But let us look to I what the facts are as regards the trade with the Brazils, and the shipping employed in it. It is well known that the Brazils afford an extensive market for the sale of British manufactures. These are all sent out in British ships; the returns are made in cotton, sugar, and coffee. cAaltaorng which p roporti o n sco n of su t m he ed sh i ? n 'p s th so eU em n p i is loaded with sugar and coffee, which is warehoused roll afterwards exported, (as the whole foreign produc e ° every foreign country might be, at the option of its mann er, o c, The rest of the returns are loaded in the same tish ships, for British account, and despatched e ither t t e , Cowes for orders, or sent direct to continental Pervso their cargoes are sold, and the proceeds remitted in P a ao l the shippers of the manufactured goods. Such has 11 7; 9 1 and continues to be, the natural channel for thia tra- g i o 'o this it must remain while our own colonies and poss es- 1 ,0 ply us to excess, which excess must also be exporte;ato same descriptions of produce. In this clause, and in ltoeydedKainreolooarad.ed sboatci follows it, a parade is made of the quantity of shiPi N ai ll l produce of the Brazils, St. Domingo ; Cuba, Dian' pore, and the eastern islands is sufficient to load/ a s, o il influence to command, or privileges to claim, or ad? the o hold out, to induce the independent governments ( a D e reign countries and colonies (Sincapore excepted) t is o li ,t^ whole of their trade in our hands. This is a grealt e il monopoly, which ill accords with the "liberal Pri arlP , fessed by the petitioners. We can only claim er ;JP carry the returns in produce for the goods exported, efl it nations have an equal right to do the same. - The for instance, supply St. Domingo, Cuba, and the 13 " j oi, nearly all the bread, flour, corn, fish, and other cotei s i ; o l caries of life, which they consume in addition to sa / raise themselves ; and in payment receive their s jo rt coffee, to a great extent, which they of course csr f leA i their own vessels. So it is with the mother cou ntry the trade she still carries en with Cuba and Alaui ll a'oS is with other foreign countries that compete with 115. " i0r rying trade. They have their own advantages, Of 1 10 try to make the most, and we have ours, with whit, rt same. The truth is, that we do possess a large 5113 0 foreign carrying trade in various quarters ; and I c an ', this ostentatious statement is altogether inapplicable t' jects for which it is meant, or attempted to be DTI that it is put forth for the purpose of deluding and those who do not possess a practical knowledge of Why Sincapore sbould be placed in the list, it bei possession and a free port, I am at a loss to co" cover a pretence for. But to proceed; the last clause I have noticed ;he proceeds of British goods, sent for British a , Aln countries which I have already named, are - ?roduce of these countries, the greater part of wil l ' :co be carried to the markets of the continent in other foreign shipping. If •this is a fact, which lowed to deny whilst there is no evidence of it prod: assertion, whatever proportion of it may be carried for British account, can only be owing to the incidot of our shipping for such employment, or from the possessing advantages over which we can have no which must enable them to carry such freight on But if this is the case, I beg to inquire how it hr large and increasing a proportion of the cotton America to Great Britain is now carried by British enter into fair and open competition with the shi United States in their own ports ? I leave . it to ' to reconcile this apparent discrepancy. The state of our intercourse with China forms next clause. This subject has already been ex.t about to come under consideration in Parliamen t ' with the renewal of the Bait India Company's cht doubt is now entertained of that trade being thrown Next follows a sweeping assertion, that a larg e British shipping are now lying unemployed a nd ports. I wish we had been favoured with particul' taining the fact, which I much doubt, and I then petitioners where ships, standing A 1, are to be state? this being almost the only class employed ii of our commerce to which the petition refers. It is said, " a drowning man will catch at a 5 1 seems to be the case with the Brazilian swig impc' refiners, when they attempt to place these shir front of their hopeless battle. Exaggeration in sl leads to defeat its object; it first destroys conlido substitutes incredulity : and such must be the fate ties with the public, explanation being all that i 9 produce it. The truth, as regards the shipowners , be, that whatevfr depression their shipping may - is mainly owing to the quantity of tonnage create d the total means for its employment, which is unfer tili o case with almost every branch of our trade and 0 3311 . 0 for as consumption and demand increase, supply st :o it. But it is satisfactory to know that the official r e , that the number of foreign ships that arrive in ° II I ; nually, in proportion to British, is diminishing, 1 %, British is increasing. This ought to afford sonic to these eager petitioners.—Yours, &c. March 23, 1833.
