The shafts of the columns are fluted ; the Ito lay th trowel the private and official crests of his Lordship wel emblazoned, and also a suitable inscription. Archdeacon BROOKS, in presenting the trowel, allude to the exertions which had recently been made in ti town to supply church accommodation for the increasic population. He said that a subscription was, a few yea] ago, commenced, and the sum of £20,000 was propose to be raised for that purpose. The venerable archdeaco then referred to the commercial depression which ha visited the town and interfered with their operations, afte names had been put down to the extent of betwee £13,000 and £14,000. in one of the districts, by th great exertions of one of the clergy, a considerable sun was raised, and they felt bound to follow up those ex ertions by supplying, from the funds of the society, wha was necessary to complete St. Simon's Church, and th, last act of their late valued diocesan was to consecrat that church. They then proceeded to the second dis trict, and one of the first acts of his lordship was to con secrate that church. They were now oroceedinv to th. 11.3 bells and foliage of the capitals arc of solid ire ; line being hatched with gold. A tie panels of the roof are filled in with appropriate d enrichments, as are also those of the entablature, the whole being relieved from an ultramarine field, with flake ...er portions of the walls, mouldings, are delicately and harmoniously coloured d with various shades of Buff and French grey.

They had means tha would go a great way towards the completion of thi; building, and after that they would have to turn their at. tention to the awful state of the district of Vauxhall, which contained no fewer than between 13,000 and 16,00( souls, not only without a church, but without any place of religious worship in the whole district. From his long experience of this town, he knew their appeal to the wealthy inhabitants of this town would not be in vain. The Bis Ho t, then said that his connexion with the dio cese had not been of long duration, but the visits he luod made had not only been satisfactory, for the kind re. ception he had met, but for the objects of the visits. The object of his visit that day was to consecrate one church and to lay the foundation stone of another. There we: no duty he could have been called upon to perform which would have been more agreeable to his feelings or his wishes. The day opened, not promising to prove pro pitious for their purpose, but the sun shone brightly . . on them then , and he hoped that the divine blessing would shine on the work they were about to perform. The circumstances of the times were such as to call for all persons who had any sense of piety, moral responsi bility, or religion, to make vigorous and energetic exer tions in providing additional means for the spiritual instruction of the people. During the last rpntnro th. commerce and wealth of this country had increased in a degree altogether unprecedented, and as hiq friend (the Archdeacon) bad said there was perhaps no part of Eng land in which this progress had been exemplified in so large and conspicuous a manner as in this town of Liver pool. When they looked about, it was a matter of great thankfulness to find that God the Giv er o f a ll h a d no t been forgotten, and that fitt►ng sympathy had been shown for the wants and spiritual destitution of the multitude. The age in which they lived was marked by nothing more than by its desire for change. Abroad the peace of empires had been disturbed, and forms of governments subverted. The shock was felt over all the continent, and at home here amongst ourselves there was a moment when the vibration was just felt in the slightest degree, and for a time only. Happily it did but ruffle the surface of society without disturbing our tranquil state or impeding the steady current. In this great town there was no doubt. at that time, much anxiety - ; but happily this had pa away. _ All was now reviving, and confidence and prevailed. To God be the glory and praise. There wel no doubt many secondary causes to which, under God' blessing, might be ascribed the comparative tranquilit3 in which this country had remained amidst the distraction! which surrounded them. They should be justified to some extent in ascribing it to the elastic nature of our free institutions, which expanded with the expanding energies and intelligence of the people. They might be justified also in ascribing it to the virtues which adorned the throne; but whilst they did justice to these and other causes, they must not overlook the prevalence of religious principles amongst the great masses of our population. It was these principles which laid the foundation of all public tranquility, and social order, and national peace. It was these principles which taught loyalty to the throne, obedience to the laws, reverence and respect for the rights of property, and-obedieme-ancler-fir, trial 3 and privations ro wnicn, no aouot, tne lower classes have, during the last year, been exposed. His lordship concluded by say ing there were not many things which he should leave behind him with more pride than the trowel with which he bad unexpectedly been presented that day. The cere mony of laying the stone was then proceeded with; and after prayer by the Rev. E. Power, the singing of the doxology, and the pronouncing of the blessing, the pro ceedings terminated. TRANSFERS OF SHARES (From the Law Times.) The Inland Revenue Commissioners have issued a notice from which it appears that there is a heavy penalty upon attorneys and solicitors employed in preparing transfers of shares, when the full consideration is not set forth. It is as follows : " It being understood that, on the sale of share. _ railway and other joint-stock companies, a practice exist, of omitting to state in the instrument of transfer the true sum paid or agreed to be paid for such shares, whereby the stamp duty payable on such transfer is evaded ; the Commissioners of Inland Revenue deem it right to give the following notice, viz.:— " That on the sale of property of any kind it is required by law that the full purchase or consideration money which shall be directly or indirectly paid, or secured or agreed to be paid for the same, shall be truly set forth and expressed in words, at length, in the deed or instrument whereby the property shall be transferred; and that in default thereof, both the purchaser and seller incur a penalty of £5O and five times the amount of the duty evaded by the omission ; and the person employed in preparing the transfer incurs a penalty of £5OO ; and, if he be an attorney, solicitor, or writer to the signet, he is, on con viction, thenceforth disabled from practising. " That if either of the parties to the transfer gives in formation to the Commissioners, whereby the penalty incurred by the other, or the quintuple duty, or any part thereof, may be recovered, he is not only to 'oe indemni fied and discharged from his liability, but play be re warded out of the money so recovered, to such an extent, not exceeding one-half thereof, as the Commissioners shall think proper. " That the purchaser may recover back from the seller, in an action at law, so much of the purchase-money as shall not be set forth in the transfer, or the whole thereof, if no part be set forth. " The Commissioners also give notice, that they will liberally reward persons who may give them information by means of which any of such penalties shall be recovered. " By order of the Board, J. C.

THE GRANT TO IRELAND.—The only members con nected with this district who voted on Friday against the grant of £lOO,OOO for Ireland. were Sir P. Egerton,: Hon. E. H. Stanley, and J. Green. PRESCOT UNION.—Last Thursday, the first meeting of the newly-elected board of guardians for this union was held at Prescot, when Mr. Edward Ward, the well known and highly respected solicitor of Prescot, was elected chairman, and Mr. Joseph Greenough, of Parr, the vice chairman. d—the whole formed by framed and moulded screenwork, filled in with ground plate glass, in large squares, in the upper panels. The whole of the clerks and desks of the bank are thus shut out from the view of the public, and the business of the bank is carried on in a quiet and unostentatious BOROUGH BUILDINGS MANCHESTER.—A dispute has arisen respecting this " distribution" or lottery. At the first " drawing" some dispute took place and another was in consequence resorted to, but the winners on the first occasion have given notice to the trustees not to convey to the successful parties on the second day of drawing. Now there cannot be any question that the whole scheme is a lottery or raffle, which is clearly illegal, and which is in no way brought within the exemptions by the proviso of the above clause. The two eminent counsel consulted by the trustees Sir Fitzroy Kelly and Mr. Cowling) advise them that the contract is void by illegality ; and that neither set of winners, nor even the subscribers at large, can recover; but, as the trustees have no pecu niary interest in the matter, they are advised, in this opinion, not to pay over the money to any party, until the matter has received a legal solution. Here, therefore, the question rests for the present; and, so far as any one can foresee, may long rest. BREACII OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE.—In the Salford Hundred Court of Record, on Tuesday, Mary Shepherd. aged twenty-one, daughter of Mr. Shepherd, formerly a cotton-spinner, of Whitworth, sought to recover compen sation in damages from Mr. Malialieu, a waste banding and strickle maker, residing near Rochdale. Mr. Mal lalieu became acquainted with the plaintiff in 1847, when Mr. Shepherd was in good circumstances. He paid his addresses to her formally, and told her parents that he wished to marry her. He continued his attentions till Mr. Shepherd became unfortunate, when, having seduced Miss Shepherd by the promise of immediate marriage, he deserted her and married another young lady. The poor girl proved in the family way just as she heard of his ap, proaching nuptials. The only answer he gave to he r parents was, that he would pay one shilling and sixpence a week for the support of the child. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff for the full amount sought to be recovered, and also the largest amount which can be re. covered in this court, £5O. ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.—THE SPECTACLE FOR THE MING SEASON.—The first gala of the season at these I ill be given on Tuesday next, believe that it will be found that o no previous occasion have the spirited owners of the esta ._ blishment catered so magnificently for the a m u semen t o f I in tl the public. beyond the Fo describe the illusive scene provided is,' f to say that it brings. before us in all its beauty a panorama of the queen of all cities, Constantinople, unrivalled for its architectural beauties, its romantic scenery, and its inter- ,ciations. The entire resources and talen .mand of Messrs. Atkins have been drawn fort Jccasion ; and it is intended that the pyroted .Jrts shall be upon a scale of lavishness, which has n, yet been equalled in the metropolis itself. The garc are in fine order; and a week of the present genial s ther will render a lou- the co this o ) 1 manner In the space between the two columns at the furthest end of the bank is a large and commodious hydraulic safe, a of wrought iron, curiously constructed, and of excellent workmanship, executed by Messrs. Weber and Co., of - this town. The safe is let down at night into an im- El pregnable granite chamber, and is pumped up every - morning for the purpose of business. The window e frames of the bank are of brass, filled in with plate glass, i and the upper segments are made to open for ventilation s by a new application of the rack and pinion, the invention of the architect. The whole of the finishings of the windows and framed work of the doors is of mahogany. The shutters are lined with strong wrought-iron plates at the back, and are secured most effectually by bolts at top and bottom, which shut and open simultaneously inside with a key. On the 'ading down to the strong s railing and gates, very _.s.

They, place, were con masses of ashlar, grooved and tongued together in the beds and points, and arched with ashlars in a similar manner : Subsequently, they have been lined all round with boiler plate. The doors and window shutters of them are all double plata, rivetted on frames, and hung to huge frames of cast iron in single castings—the whole being, when shut, quite impregnable from without, and afford perfect security to the deposited property in them. The whole arrangements of this bank are found admi rably adapted to the purposes for which it was designed ; and the perfect security which it affords from fire, and other sources of danger, by the constructive skill with which the materials have been put together, offers an excellent example of what may be done by one conversant with his art, and at a cost not much beyond that of an 3rdinary erection. We understand that the original e3ti gate (which has not been exceeded £5OO or £600) for , e whole of the new pile of buildings, including the 'le manager's house (which is commodious and , nt), the two adjoining shops, with the houses `or the same, and four suites of offices besides, bank, t even ele The original contractor was John Toni kin Son The contractors for the joiners' and carpenters' work, which has been so well executed, were Messrs.

Weber and Co. ; the plumbers' and glazers' work b 3 Mr. Richard Edwards ; and the painting by Mr. Alexander White. The whole of the work has, we be lieve, given great satisfaction to the architect, Mr. Cun ningham, who has given in this erection, externally and it, tern-tiny -- another proof - or .M•aes — sional . skill and correct taste. POLICE INTELLIC ENCE, CHARGE OF EMBEZZLEMENT.—Edward Hamilton was charged at Alanchester, on Friday, with embezzling money to the amount of £lB7, the property of Messrs. Neild, • • . Monies and Co., wine and spirit merchants, Hanover street, Liverpool, his late employers. He was committed for trial at the sessions, but allowed to go out on bail. A PRACTISED SWINDLER.—On Saturday, Stephen Williams, a man of colour, dressed in the garb of a sea man, was brought before Mr. Rushton on a charge of obtaining 20s. 6d. and a handkerchief by false pretences. days ago the prisoner went to a boarding-house "r. John Seed, and represented himself as stew hip Mary Johnson. As his story was believed fitted as a lodger. No sooner had he gained kept by 111 and of the the confidence of his landliird than he borrowed the money and property above-named, with which he decamped, and did not return again to the house. O n b e i ng di scovere d he was given into custody. Mr. Rushton said that he could not do anything in the case, as the prisoner had been taken in as a lodger, and the money lent to him. The chief superintendent of police said the prisoner had been brought to the police-office at least twenty times within the last two months for offences of a similar cha racter :Ao that now charged against him. He had been living for the last twelve months by the practice of swin dling. The prisoner was discharged. ..-. CHARGE OF ROBBING THE PARIS H W ORKHOUSE. — • • .• On Friday three parties were brought Ul7l;egr"e'lir. Rushton, on the charge of robbing the parish workhouse. Three parties, named Mary and Elizab e th G regory , mo ther and daughter, and Wm. Anderson, watchmaker, son in-law of the elder prisoner, were charged with robbing the parish workhouse of an enormous quantity of soap, sugar, bread, potatoes, tea,, coffee, snuff, clothing of all sorts, and in fact a bulk, of articles which would have filled a large cart. Mr. Robinson, of the firm of Lowndes, Bateson, and Robinson, appeared to prosecute, and Mr. Charles Pemberton for the prisoners. The facts of the case may be stated as follows :—ln consequence of some private information given to police constable No. 600, he entered the house of the elder female prisoner, at Brown low-hill, and saw a boy on Thursday about noon take a large basket thence to the house of the prisoner, Ander son, in South-street. Upon entering the house the police searched the basket, and found a quantity of potatoes, bacon, mutton, bread, pork, &c. The house was th en searched by the inspector and other policemen, and some tea, soap, and a variety of other articles, which it is sup posed belonged to the parish, were found. The boy stated that he had brought, the things from the house of Mrs. Gregory, who is the assistant storekeeper of the Liverpool workhouse. On going there, the police found a large quantity of soap in bars, female clothing, and all descrip tions of pieces of cloth cut up for making, and, indeed, most of the articles used for clothing the inmates of a workhouse. Upon the person of Mrs. Gregory were found some keys and four enormous pockets, any of the latter being large enough to hold a leg of mutton. It was proved that the boy (Brownbill) had been in the habit for the last eight months, excepting perhaps Sunday, of calling daily at the house of Mrs. Gregory, and carrying a large basket full of provisions, &c., up to the house of her son in-law (Anderson), and he was occupied in this manner for three hours daily during the time we have mentioned. There could be scarcely any positive identity of the great bulk of the articles, for there had been but little time to examine them. Mrs. Todd, the principal storekeeper, stated that she examined the articles produced, but, though they were of the same description as those at the Liverpool Workhouse, she could not identify any of them. She also stated that Mrs. Gregory, the elder prisoner, had faithfully accounted for all the cloth and materials that had been entrusted to her to distribute for the purpose of being made up. LOCAL MEETINGS, The annual meeting of the Financial Reform Associa tion was held on Wednesday, when Lawrence Heyworth, Esq.. M.P., took the chair. The speakers on the occasion were those who usually address the audience. It was stated in the report that thirty-six similar associations have been established through the country.

Some of the speeches were, however, rather better than ordinarily delivered on such occasions, especially those of the Revds. Dr. Hume and H. Hampton. BIRKENHEAD GAS AND WATER COMPANY.—The half yearly meeting of the shareholders in the Birkenhead and Claughton Gas and Water Company was held at the Company's Offices on Saturday last, Mr. Wm. Jackson presiding. The treasurer presented a report of the gene ral prospects of the company, and also the accounts for the past six months, showing the profits of the period applicable for dividend to have amounted to £1472. These being approved and adopted, Mr. Thomas Brassey and Mr. Pirth were added to the directors, when thanks being voted to the chairman, the meeting separated. MEETING OF OPERATIVE PORTERS.—OR Tuesday night a numerously attended meeting of the operative porters and others was held in the Concert-hall, Lord Nelson-street, for the purpose of adopting measures to obtain the repeal of the dock act of the 9th and 10th Vic., the workingfof which the operative porters deem inimical to their interests.

A inch less popular trick than this, but one not less excel . it, is the suspension by ether.

The machinery which this effect is obtained must be cleverly devised. 3.

WILSON, THE ALLEGED MURDERER.—AIthough an , stupid fellow, this wretched man is fully awake nstance which may present itself in his favour. membered that, at the examination before , when a witness stated that he saw the pri - r - ttal day with one of the legs of his trousers he top of a Wellington boot, he (on being 3w his boots) jumped upon a s ea t within its toot upon the bridewell-keeper's he did riot tear Wellingtons, but re was then no evidence that any id been in 1 witness said that the boots shown were what he called Wellingtons, though they were short. Since then the truth has transpired. A woman, to whom Wilson (or Gleeson) gave a pair of Wellington boots, offered them in pawn at the very shop where he exchanged his trousers, and they am now in possession of the police. Mr. Dowling, our head constable, has addressed a letter to. the Journal, dated 20th instant, in which he states that Mr. Featherstone, a magistrate, who resides near Limerick, had called upon him that day, stating that he knew the whole family of the Gleesons, and could identify the prisoner if desired ; that that gentleman was sent to Kirkdale ; and the moment he entered the yard, where the prisoner was, the latter app roac hi ng hi m , cap i n hand, said, " I'm glad to see your honour," and burst into tears ; and that he then stated he had sent a tette' to his honour, to be delivered to his father, which. ever, Mr. Featherstone had not received, as he had been absent in London—hut he told prisoner that he was about to proceed to Ireland, and would attend to it. At the end of this interview, which clearly establishes the pri soner's identity, " Gleeson (says Mr. Dowling) made a bow, and seemed bursting with anguish." It is added that. during this conversation with the prisoner. mithina was said relative to the crime with which he is charged. Mr. Featherstone, before leaving the gaol, told the governor that there could be no mistake as to the pri soner's identity, for that five years ago he was brought before him, on a charge of having robbed a man of £7, but was discharged, the evidence not being sufficient. Shortly after, Gleeson left Ireland, and Mr. Featherstone only learned where he was by the recent accounts in the newspapers. Mr. Dowling had previously discovered that the real name of the prisoner is Maurice Gleeson, son of David Gleeson, a blacksmith, of Bruree, nine miles from Limerick ; that the whole family was noted for idleness and vice; that the prisoner, who worked a little for his father, left home two or three years ago, and that one of his sisters (Honorah) had since ben., ported. The following further particulars were also ascertained :—The prisoner went from Ireland to Plymouth, where he worked for a few months in a founds y as striker. From Plymouth he went to London, and lived for some time in Limehouse. About ten months ago he came to Liverpool, and took lodgings at the house in Sparling-street, kept by his present wife, whom, as we before stated, he married at the end of last year. Since be came to Liverpool he has never been known to do a day's work.—lt will be seen by our shipping news that the Duncan, Captain Henrichson, did not arrive at Calcutta until the 25th February.

CHURCH.—On Tuesday last this place of worship, which was completed a short time ago, was consecrated by the Lord Bishop of Chester. Amongst those present on the occasion were the Mayor, the Rev. Archdeacon Brook", Re - v - : - Rcctur - -Cmytpbeil, with -- tethers of the clergy, Alderman Swainson, Councillors Thom son, Ferguson, Briscoe, Wagstaff, Itimmer, &c. usual formalities haviry , been gone through, an appropri eachal by the Bishop, from Matthew, A collection was made, to be divided ST. MATT A c., v. 19 between the schools attached to the church and the society for promoting the employment of additional curates in popular places. The collection amounted to £2O 14s. Bd. The church is situated on the west side of Great Howard street, at the corner of Porter-street. The style of ar chitecture is that known as the early English, of which the building is considered a very perfect specimen. The • spire, at the south-west corner, is of moderate altitude, and though, in appearance, of a plain character, presents many architectural beauties. Tzie principal entrance door-way is also a handsome piece of workmanship. The interior is neat and commodious, and there is sitting room for about 1000 persons. It has not been con sidered necessary at present to erect a gallery, except for the organ and choir, at the west end. At the east end of the building, which faces Great Howard-street, there are several splendid stained glass windows, designed and executed by Forrest and Bromley, of this town, whose efforts in this diffi cu lt b ranc h of art have already gained for them a high reputation. The principal window over the altar is divided into three compartments,—the centre one contains the arms of the Bishop of the diocese, im paled with the See ; and the other two those of the rec tors of Liverpool. Two smaller windows contain repre sentations of the Nativity and Crucifixion ; besides these there are small windows in the vestries, in one of which is introduced the arms of the Rev. R. Walker, the in cumbent of the church, and in the other the arms of Mr. Arthur Holme, the architect, from whose designs the church was erected. All the windows are decorated in the style peculiar to the architecture of the church, and the colours present all that mellowness and blending of shadows which is so striking a feature in ancient works of art of this character. The church is built of freestone, and the design, as well as the workmanship, (the latter executed by Messrs. S. and J. Holme,) is such as to reflect the highest credit on all parties concerned in its erection. There are spacious well-ventilated and conve nient school-rooms underneath the church, for the edu cation of the rising generation of both sexes, in the populous district of Great Howard-street. The gallery of the church is occupied with a handsome organ, built by Mr. Bewsher, of this town, the decorations of which are in keeping with the style of the church. EXTRAORDINARY WEArTiEß.:Liiuling nearly the whole of last week, we had a severer visitation of cold for the advanced period of the year than our oldest acquaint ances have any recollection of having before experienced.
