For what, we ask, are such licenses, un less they impose responsibilities which may avail their poor clients in a case like this ? Here we have 133 poor beings embarked in a vessel which proved herself incompetent to gain her desired port within the period contemplated, and for which the necessary sea stores bad been laid in. These exhausted, we see the captain doling out supplies until the funds of his wretched passengers were exhausted, and then leaving them destitute on a foreign shore, hundreds of miles away from their destination.

His plan, I must say. is a very good one ; but, at the same time, and with all deference towards him, I would say, if the " Tradesmen's Assistants' Association" was to take it in hand and cause hills to be distributed to each shopkeeper written, as he says,—" This shop will be closed on" New Year's Day, it would, I am sure, prove effectual.

Hugh M Neile, on the perfected unity of the Church of Christ, with some remarks on the Evangelical Alliance, is now published. It is perhaps scarcely necessary to observe that the observations of the reverend gentleman on the latter subject, which have been already printed, gain much additional force, when read in connection with the previous part of the sermon, on the manifested oneness of the church. Several important notes, further illustrative of the subject, have been added, and now when Ilse public mind is so agitated, we hope the present appeal will contribute to " establish, strengthen, and Excha , LIVER OOL SHARE-MARKET YESTERDAY.- as closed from Wednesday last he Christmas holidays, and only opened yesterday fo •egular business.
