/ 8 TO CORRESPONDENTS, We had several communications ready for insertion, but are obliged to postpone them in consequence of the ad journed council meetings, and the proceedings at the commercial associations, on the subject of the Fire mu. ' "-- letter of our correspondent, " An - - ` ^F the recent attack of hav receiveß - Orangeman," upon the subjeu, . the Mercury upon that loyal body. Our -- temporary's heciy wit is not worth thi notice of qny Orangeman. " Let the galled jade wince:" It will, he long before the Mercury's pet boys—the ribbonmen dt Liverpool—dare give to the world a record of the say ings and doings of any of their conclaves. Loyalty is at all events better in our eyes than sympathy with re bellion, whatever our brother of the Mercury may think about the subject ; and it is better, too, in the eyes of the respectable portion of the people of Liver pool, whatever may be the feeling in those localities where our contemporary is most industriously spelled over. Ebe Etherpoot &tanbarb. TUESDAY MORN/NG, JULY 11, 1813. Amongst the remedies proposed for the present disaffected state of Ireland, concession to the de. Ii mands of agitation is the most prominent, because the most ready of suggestion and the most produc tive of• present ease. To oppose a headlong torrent, or even to dam up a gentle streamlet, requires an effort, both of the will and of the body ; whilst to yield to their influence, it only requires that we should close our eyes from the view of that gulf to which they are surely and rapidly bearing us. " Strive to remove the grievances of the Irish people !" is, therefore, the cry of the timid and lethargic Protestant—who would be puzzled to de scribe in what those grievances consist. " Put down the nuisance of an established church !" shouts a demagogue of the Roebuck school. " Take away only her surplus (I) revenues," ejacu lates an admirer of Lord John Russell. " Give Ireland a Whig ministry," lisps out the faded beau who lately protocolled in the Foreign-office. The 4burden of the song is still concession ; whilst if any loyal Englishmen, a little bolder than his fellows, dares to look one step beyond present expediency, and to ask the question, " Why yield up one out work of that constitution—why yield up one stone of the buttresses of those walls, upon which we must ultimately stand, to battle for our liberties and for the integrity of the empire ?" he is straightway denounced as a fanatic, an intolerant, and an enemy of the Irish people ! ll'e care not for such denunciations. We detest that cowardly expediency which, to ward off the hour of struggle —to buy a treacherous and hollow peace—would negociate terms of submission to armed and menacing rebellion. We would concede to justice freely, and all that Ireland can claim. We would concede to menace, NOTHING ! With the result of such concessions in past years before us, how can we, as men resolved to maintain the in stitutions of our country, pursue a different course ? The history of the struggle with popery for the last fifty years has been one of concession after conces sion ; and have those concessions purchased for Protestantism peace or security ? No ! Only a few days ago, in the House of Commons, we were reminded by an Irish member, Mr. Wyse, an advo cate of popish claims, and the would-be supporter of popish supremacy in Ireland and throughout the world, that, " from 1793 to 1829, concession had followed concession ; England had passed from necessity to necessity. She must go on." And again : " Let no man suppose that Catholic eman cipation was a final act ; it was the last of a series, but it was also the beginning of another series" ! This is THE TRUTH. Disguise the fact as we may, we are embarked upon the waters of a torrent, which are bearing us over fall after fall, still in creasing in depth, until at length we are approach ing a " lower deep," upon the brink of which we must nause—if pause we can—for the chasm is 1 it contains the elements of our ruin as a Protestant nation ! The act of 1829 was " the last of a series." We were promised, as its result, PEACE ; the ces sation of agitation ; the quiet submission of, the Roman Catholic Church in Ireland to the supre macy of the British Crown ; the blending of the Roman Catholic people of Ireland into the mass of loyalty and devotedness which are the characteris tics of the Protestant people of Great Britain, and of Ireland as well. Have these promises been kept ? Have the hopes with which we regarded them been realised? They have not; and we are reminded that if the agitation which preceded the act of 1829 was the last of one series, it was also " the beginning of another" ! And that other, provided by the Jesuit faith of Rome as a lash for our past credulity,—withheld from our gaze for a while, and now paraded, in insulting mockery, be fore our eyes,—is this agitation for the objects which are comprised in the term " repeal of the union" ! And yet we are urged, even by Protestants, to concede to that agitation. Even now, when its leaders stand up, with arms in their hands and ARMIES within their control,—when we have ring ing in our ears the boast of a traitor that he wields " more physical force than ever monarch com manded or general led,"—we are urged to go on in that fatal course which has already brought the empire to the verge of dismemberment ! Do the advocates of such a cowardly policy really imagine that any concession—that even the sacrifice of the Protestant Church of Ireland, and the setting up of Rome upon its ruins—would purchase for them any greater amount of quiet than past concessions have secured ? We give them, for their information, the declaration, as to the result of such concession, of the arch-apostle of treason—the leader of the phy sical force of Ireland—Daniel O'Connell himself! " I had a conversation," exclaimed this incen diary, at the meeting of the Repeal Association on Tuesday last, at the Dublin Corn Exchange,—" had a conversation lately, with gentlemen whose names I will not mention, but wbose ooinione pro vonsutered to be adverse to repeat; anot what did they advise me to do ? ' Accept of no compromise,' said they. (Loud cheers.) You will perhaps be offered THE SACRIFICE OF THE ESTABLISHED CHURCH, and an appropriation of the ecclesiastical revenues to the purposes of the state ; so take all that you can get, but don't promise to give up any thing'! I WILL TAKE CARE TO FOLLOW SUCH ADVICE" ! Is this not warning sufficient ? Can the blindest or the maddest, after such a declaration, advise the concession of an inch of ground to the demands of a traitor, so daring in his designs, and so insolent in his menaces ? In the report of the Council meeting of Wednes day last, under the head of " Dock Committee," we find the following conversation. We may premise that we take it from the Mercury, because it is a source not generally supposed to he favourable to our views of the question to which it refers : " DOCK COMMITTEE. " The report of the committee having been read, " Mr. G. H LAWRENCE said the cost of the proposed warehouses at the Albert Dock had been differently stated, it being, according to one account, £36 ss. per square yard, according to another, only £ll. He wished to know which was correct. " Mr. SANDS was as much surprised as anybody to see it stated in the papers that the warehouses were going to cost £4O per square yard. His friend, Mr. Stewart, knew that that was quite fallacious. The cost of the warehouses, including the vaults, would be £lO 10s. per square yard, and without the vaults, £8 Bs.. They would be fire-proof, as far as it was possible to make them so, and he had the best authority for stating, that when so built, the Fire In surance Offices both here and in London would insure them at rates as low as those charged in London, or any where else. (Hear, hear.) " Mr. PLATT.—What Dock Warehouses? " Mr. SANDS.—Yes. _ • " _ln% Alderman EARLE.--Does the estiMate incluoe the land? " Mr. SANDS. — No,—not the making of the land. "Mr. Alderman EARLS. —Then the cost will be some. very like 440 per yard. then confirmed, " 1 ' The report It really does appear to us surprising that a body " I— the Dock Committee, amply provided with sur veyors and other officials, should display such an extraordinary want of decided information—shoulo, give to the world such extraordinary differencP„ o f s t a tement—with respect to a matter so imP;(tant as the cost of the warehouses now in cours'. of erection upon the dock quays. We have no,, had, within a couple of months, three distinct . statements, none of . .nee. First, on the 18th them agreeing with each o of May, we had, from the lips of the Surveyor, £36 ss. per square yard mentioned as the total cost the warehouses in question. Upon of erection of that statement we commented ; and we may say with truth, that, in addition to our own, it excited the amazement of the entire community ! At a meeting of the Dock Trustees, held on the of June, the same Surveyor who had thus deliberately given to the Committee his estimate--in writing or not we cannot say—protested that " he could not say how the mistake" (qy. whose mistake ?) " had arisen" ; but that the actual "estimate was £ll lls. per square yard." We have now, from the re spected Chairman of the Dock Trust, another ver sion ! " The cost of the warehouses, including the vaults, will be £lO lOs. per square yard, and with out the vaults, SS Bs." How are we to reconcile these conflicting ac counts—first £36 ss. ; then £ll 1 ls. ; and then, with the vaults, £lO 10s. ? The latter, we are fur ther informed by the Chairman, does not include the land,—or, as he says, perhaps more correctly, " the making of the land." The land cost £2 12s. 6d. per square yard. The " making of the land" — the piling, filling, &c.—what may that cost ? Any man who has gone over the stupendous works which have been carried on upon the site of these warehouses, and to form that site, may almost be disposed to believe, with Mr. William Earle, and in accordance with our first calculation and the Surveyor's first calculation of their cost, that these warehouses will not be completed, including land, piling, &c., for less than £4O per square yard ! When will the Dock Committee solve, beyond dispute—it cannot be very difficult—this most im portant question ? At the present moment, it is all important ! At length we have before us the opinions of the leading members of the Council, with respect to the question recently mooted by the commercial asso ciations of the port, and upon which we have lately remarked ; viz. whether as the remedy for the fre quent fires which have of late occurred in our exist• ing warehouses, it is expedient, or just, to seek the withdrawal of those clauses in the Dock Act, which restrict the powers of the committee to erect ware houses upon the dock quays. We must confess that, upon such a subject, we have referred, with the greatest interest, to the remarks of Mr. Alderman Evans ; not because we conceive that there is any thing which we ought to receive as oracular in the sayings of that gentleman; but because we have all along entertained the opinion that the alderman was the motive power, of which the busy and loqua ' cious Mr. rrodd, who has come so prominently before us of late, was the vox et preteria nihil. To the speech of Mr. Evans, therefore, we turn for the most potent arguments which can be adduced, for setting aside the deliberately-recorded opinions of the town, and of Parliament, as to the extent to which his favourite experiment of dock warehouses stimuli ne tried. But first let us set ourselves right with respect to our own objections to ride upon Mr. Alderman Evans's hobby horse. We have no objections, in the abstract, to the principle of erecting warehouses upon the dock quays, although we feel convinced that any land which we have to spare—and that we have little enough is notorious—might be devoted to a better purpose. If there is no safety, however, in any other locality, build them on the dock quays ; but build them as private speculations, or sell the land to public companies, under any restrictions, as to plans of erection or management, which you choose. We object only to the Dock Committee becoming warehouse owners, or warehouse keepers, on the dock quays, or anywhere else! We object to the capital of the dock estate being lavished in an injurious and unfair competition with the capital and the management of private individuals; and so strongly is this principle impressed upon our minds, that we would almost go the length of Mr. North, and allow the docks themselves to be leased to pri vate individuals or to companies. From all that we have seen of corporate management, or dock ma nagement, we are convinced that the public interests would be better served by any other management ! Again we must protest against the frequently expressed notion that the restrictions under which the Dock Committee —or, rather, that imperium in imperio which is styled the Committee of Works, and which is the Dock Committee—labour, are re strictions imposed upon them by " the warehouse owners." Whatever may be the sins of that vilified body of men, this sin is not to be laid exclusively at their door. The Council—which, if we mistake not, represents, or ought to represent, the town—willed that these restrictions should be imposed. The great majority of the community, who elect the Council, willed the same. The restrictions, there fore, a e not the result of " an improvident bargain with a few warehouse owners," but a security taken by the community against the carrying out of the hobby of a few crotchetty experimentalists ! /11111.4 11,./•• 111 3 pass by the somewhat flighty portion of it, in which he refers to the warehouse' owners as the parties originating the restrictions to which we have re ferred, because we have already shewn that the imputation is senseless ; and proceed to quote the most material part, in extenso : " It was a principle of English law, quite consistent with the practice of the constitution, that parliament should give relief wherever an injustice had been perpe trated; and whatever might be their views in that room, however they might feel themselves restricted by the late act, the public at large would feel no more restricted by it than by any other act of the legislature which they wished to have repealed. It was a rule of law, as the professional gentlemen would tell them, that for every thing valuable there must be an equivalent. Now, the warehouse interest could not pretend that they had given any equivalent for availing themselves of their momentary political power to impose upon the public an unjust re striction. On these grounds, he believed that the mea sures adopted out of doors, or likely to be adopted, would in all likelihood succeed ; and he did consider that it would be a great deal more creditable for the warehouse interest themselves to take the initiative in the business, and to abandon a restriction which they never bad the least right to propose." We are perfectly ready to admit the soundness of the Alderman's view of the spirit of British parlia mentary law and practice. Parliament will, no doubt, give relief, even to the extent of revising its own acts, " wherever injustice has been perpetrated" by the operation of those acts ; but it will first re quit., proof of the existence of such injustice. Can Mr. Evans, or any one else, prove that injustice ? Upon whom has it been committed ? Upon the dock trustees ? We rather think, on the contrary, r THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD that injustice, if perpetrated at all, has been perpe trated upon the public at large—upon the dock-rate payers ; and that such injustice consists in the fact that power has been given to the dock trustees—or, rather, as we have before stated, to the " Committee f w orts " —to lar;-' "'°' l the funds of the estate in the erection of b u ildi ng S, of w hi c h t h e y od not even seem to know' the cost; 'and against which nine out of ten in the coirtirMnity are already exclaiming as most i`..tjudicionsiy planned, and likely to be almost rui'.tously inoperative. Before listening to any prayer, either of the Council, the Dock Committee, the warehouse owners, or :he party "o - t of doors" who are agitating this question,—before giving to the Dock Committee those increased powers which two sessions ago they refused,—Parliament might be disposed to inquire into the mode in which the existing powers of that body had been used; and would undoubtedly receive, as no light evidence of its injurious nature, the declaration of the mercan tile associations to which we last week referred. But we p oceed with Mr. Evans's remarks : " He (Mr. E.) should be very loth to be the person to accompany any eminent stranger to look at the Albert Dock, when completed under the present restriction, and to tell him, when he asked the reason of the desolation of half the ground. that, though allowed to build the foundations and vaults, they were not allowed to build the warehouses. (Hear, hear.)" So should we be loth to be the persons to accom pany any stranger, illustrious or otherwise, to look at erections, and foundations of erections, and to have to tell him that already it was a subject of public debate whether those erections would have to be moved back, and those foundations, completed at an enormous expense, be rendered wholly use less ! " He should blush to tell the stranger that Liverpool was under the control of a private interest that oppressed her commerce and her trade ; that, whilst every one of these men was at perfect liberty to build any kind of trashy warehouses he liked, on hill or dale, or wherever he would, the public were inhibited from building the best of warehouses on the most eligible site. (Hear, hear.) Men must be under the most degrading influence in the world, to suppose that the commerce of Liverpool was to be checked, interrupted, and curtailed by a few men, whose interests were, after all, comparatively unimpor tant ; and there could be no doubt that the corporation ought to be released from such a degrading position as this. The memorial alluded to a new circumstance—the vast number of warehouses that had been burnt. When these were to be replaced, would they deny the public the application of the principle which they had already con ceded, by allowing half of the proposed dock warehouses to be erected ? He did believe that if the warehouse in terest had effected the conquest of Liverpool just as an other William the Conqueror might have done, they could hardly have imposed more destructive and more degrading conditions on the town than they did by the late Dock Act. He did hope that, under all the circumstances, and considering the evident want of warehouses, the warehouse interest would withdraw their opposition, and allow warehouses to be built, which would be a model to the world." We, too, should blush ; but it would be to be found talking such empty trash as this, and to be so palpably displaying to the world how totally our judgment and common sense we e obscured by the abs Orbing influence of a pet crotchet ! Mr. Alderman Evans must know, or he ought to know, that any application to Parliament to permit the engrafting of a clause, so vitally important and so extensive in its operation as the clause proposed to be engrafted upon the Fire Prevention Bill, could only tend to prevent the passing of that bill itself. We have the distinct declaration of the Town Clerk that such would be the effect of the application in question; and really, when we see a gentleman, in defiance of such an opinion, persevere in an obsti nate attempt to hurry the Council to the adoption of a course so suicidal, we may almost be justified in the suspicion that he cares less for the Fire Pre vention Bill—less for the providing of a remedy which will contribute to arrest the frequent confla grations occurring in the town—than for the tri umph, by the aid of a temporary ferment in the public mind, of that hobby with which he has so sedulously endeavoured to ride roughshod over the will and the properties of a large portion of the in habitants of the town. TIME OF PARLIAMENT CONSUMED IN THE DISCUSSION OF IRISH AFFAlRS.—Referring to the complaint of Mr. W. S. O'Brien, that Ireland is neglected by the British Parliament, the London Times on Thursday remarks— " What proportion of time do our readers suppose has been actually occupied in the two Houses of Parliament by exclusively Irish subjects? The time we cannot pro fess to guess at, but the matter spoken, even as abridged of some of its most superfluous trash by the judgment of our reporters, has occupied in our paper, since the Easter recess only, no less than one hundred and four columns and three-quarters, and seems but too unlikely to stop even there. This at least, if not a disproof of, may be taken by Mr. O'Brien as at least some revenge for the neglect of the Legislature." If to this be added the time consumed by the British press and the British public, in recording and perusing the ruffianism of O'Connell's repeal gatherings, it cannot with any degree of reason be urged that the alleged evils, or the sayings and doings of the Irish people, do not occupy a full share of the attention of the world. A RADICAL GRIEVANCE I—ln the Manchester Guardian of Wednesday last, we find the following somewhat amusing paragraph : " DISGRACEFUL USE OF A COURT OF JUSTICE.—The sessions-room or moot-hall of the borough of Wigan, on Monday last, was set apart for the accommodation of the Orange lodges, who had a grand gala day in that town, and were honoured' with the company of several of the more distinguished members of the order. A band, en gaged by the body, was playing during the whole of the day in the neighbourhood of the hall, and an adjacent public-house, where one of the lodges is held; and the Orangemen dressed in full uniform, paraded the street s to and from the buildi ng , th e door f which was kept by one of the fraternity. In addition to the above, several banners bearing the arms of the order, and inscriptions, Church and state,' Loyal Orange Society,' &c., were hung from the windows of the grand jury room, outside the hall, and the members were in deliberation during a great part of the day, with closed doors. What the go vernment will say to this gross perversion of the use of a public court of justice, if represented to them, remains to be seen : it certainly reflects the highest discredit on the authorities of the borough." A shocking thing, truly, that the "sessions-room or moot .hall," of the borough of Wigan, should be occupied—whether they paid or nut for the accom modation—by a body of men who, in addition to their other enormities, their " closed doors," &c., could have- the assurance to exhibit from its win dows banners bearing inscriptions so offensive to the eye of liberalism as " Ch urc h an d S tate, " Lourz 0 ran CFA gCts+is.ll% l9 3 t A might have been held in this same moot- a ;" and, we venture to say, we should not have had any great outcry against it from the Manchester Guar dian. A dissenting gathering would have been quite fitting and proper within its walls. But a meeting of loyalists, whose motto is " Church and State"—" what will the government say" to such an enormity ? A place of worship may be desecrated by anti-corn-law meetings; town councils and ves tries may be turned into normal schools of agita tion; but a meeting in a court of justice, of men devoted to the support of the Church and the in stitutions of their country, is an enormity which the Guardian thinks ought to be put down by the hand of the executive ! Oh, the consummate im pudence of " liberalism" ! A RUNNING COMMENTARY UPON CONTEM PORARY JoURNALTSM.—A contemporary of Tues day last, in an article of stupendous wisdom, enti tled " State of Trade," has perpetrated a collection of dicta, upon which we propose to present to our readers a " running commentary." Indeed, this form of criticism is the only one in which we have found ourselves able, after many fruitless tnals, to do anything like justice to the production in ques tion. We begin ; and now—loquitur the Liverpool limes : " STATE OF TRADE. " The quantity of cotton purchased in Liverpool, by the manufacturers, in the first half year of 1843, is 648,740 bags, against 568,570 bags purchased in the cor responding period of 1842. This gives an increase of upwards of 80,000 bags in the quantity bought for con sumption in the half year just ended, on comparison with the first half year of 1842, and a still greater increase in comparison with the consumption of 1841." The arithmetical question here given is correctly enough solved. If the consupption of cotton in the first h 4' 1843 648,740 bags, and dalt year o: was ~ nags, _ that of the same period in 1842 was 568,570 hags, the fact that there has been an increased consump tion of upwards of 80,000 bags is one of those truths " which nobody can deny "—nobody, at Least, who has studied Cocker. Again, the Tir4o. * loquitur " So great an increase as this proves (what indeed is generally admitted) that the last half year has been one of ...c „, •turers, and activity and prosperity to the cotton manu.— though business is at present rather duller in the cotton districts than it has been for some time, yet it will be seen from the extracts from one of the monthly circulars just published at Manchester, which we give in another column, that there is even now no reason for complaint." Increased consumption of cotton proves the existence of increased " activity" of manufacturing. The conclusion is most logical and undeniable, and worthy of our philosophic contemporary. We rather apprehend, however, that increased con sumption does not always " prove " increased " prosperity" to the manufacturer. This question, however, we leave our contemporary to discuss with his free-trade friends. The fact may be true; the proof is not so apparent. We leave out some twad dle, and proceed : " The accounts from Canada, brought by the Acadia, prove, beyond doubt, that there can be no importation to any extent either of American or Canadian grain or flour into this country, except when prices are much higher than they are at present in England." Very old news this ; and we rather imagine that, even with prices " much higher than they are at present in England," we shall have, under a system of free trade, as little American or Canadian impor tation as may be. The free-trade friends of the Liverpool Times will again thank him for cutting from beneath their feet their favourite argument— the extent of the importations to be derived from the United States ! Go on again with our most candid contemporary " Owing to the dull state of the timber trade, and the large arrivals of shipping in the St. Lawrence, flour can now be brought to this country at half the usual cost of freight, that is about 2s. 6d. a barrel, and yet scarcely any is coming, the price at Montreal being such as to render the shipping of it unprofitable even at that unexampled rate of carriage. And this, it must be remembered, is not the result (flailing crops either in America or Canada, for the wheat crops have been quite as good in both these countries during the last two years as they ever are." (!) Good again ! When, we ask, are we to have our extensive imports from the United States, which are so materially to benefit our export trade to that country ? What becomes of all the trash-upon stilts which we have had spouted about the " fertile plains of the West," &c., &c. ? Messrs. Thornely, Ewart, Rathbone—tell us what ! Ye have told us that America could supply our millions with corn cheaper than any other of the nations of the earth ; but hear what says your candid philosopher, the Liverpool Times : " The truth is, that the general range of prices in America is much higher than is usually supposed, (!) high wages there adding nearly as much to the cost of production as high rents and taxes do here, and though farming produce is occasionally sold at wonderfully low prices in remote districts, that proves no more as to the general rate of prices than the equally wonderful cheap ness of the remoter districts of Scotland, and Wales, and Ireland." (!) Excellent blunderer ! You have as fairly cut your throat, or your reputation, as a free-trade authority, as any philosopher within our remembrance ! But the gem of the production is to come. Hear it, all the wiseacres of the Anti-Monopoly Association, and at your next sitting award the cap and bells to its erudite author ! " It is quite certain that, without an exceedingly low rate of duty, or entire freedom, THERE CAN NEVER BE ANY CORN TRADE OF IMPORTANCE EITHER WITH CANADA OR THE UNITED STATES, except when prices are high in England." (!!) The freight of American or Canadian flour from Montreal is only 2s. 6d. per barrel. The differen tial duty now payable is an absolute protection, and a large one, against the cheap corn of Europe. And yet, with these advantages, the flour of the St. Lawrence cannot be profitably imported into Great Britain, " except when prices are high in England," unless under " an exceedingly low rate of duty or entire freedom"—unless, in fact, you WITHDRAW THE ADVANTAGE WHICH THE DIF FERENTIAL DUTY AFFORDS ! Excellent logician ! Tell us how " a low rate of duty" (which they have at present), or " entire freedom," will better enable the countries on the banks of the St. Lawrence to supply the British market, when that " low rate" or that " entire freedom" are enjoyed by their con tinental competitors ? We recommend this production of the Liverpool Times to the consirlPratinn of the Anti-M onopo l y Association at its next sitting. LOCAL NEWS. During the thunder-storm, on Wednesday, a hay-stack was set on fire at Lark-hill, West Derby, but some men being in the neighbourhood, the fire was soon extinguished. Two old women, at Prescot, were condemned for drunkenness to sit in the stocks, last week, during the market day, and performed the penance accordingly. Such an occurrence has never taken place before in Pres cot in the memory of the oldest inhabitants. TESTIMONIAL TO A CLERGYMAN.—It gives us much pleasure to hear that the ladies of the Rev. W. Badnall's congregation, at Wavertree, have lately presented him with a handsome suit of canonicals, as a token of respect, which is another proof of their esteem for him, and, doubts less, very gratifying to his feelings. We understand that Mr. Edward Dalton, secretary to the Protestant Association of London, has just been or dained by the Bishop of Cashel, and that the future scene of his labours will be in Ireland. From his untiring and indefatigable exertions in the cause of Protestant truth, we feel assured that the rev. gentleman will, by the biessing of Almighty God, become a most useful and laborious minister of our beloved church. SMUGGLING.—Joseph Hayes, Wm. Brown, and Joseph Harnpson, three boatmen, were yesterday brought before Mr. Rushton, at the Police-court, charged with attempt ing to smuggle 112 lb. weight of foreign-manufactured tobacco. The evidence against Hampson and Brown was decisive, but rather slender against Hayes. They were all remanded until Thursday next, to know the decision of the Board of Customs.—A respectably-dressed youth was committed for seven days, for smuggling two quarts of brandy, from the Isle of Man steamer Queen of the Isle. COMMITMENTS.—A boy named Charles Sumners was, on Saturday, committed for trial, charged with stealing about 21b. of coffee from a bag w hi c h h e h a d cut open at Mr. Hollis' warehouse in Ironmo nger -l ane. —A woman named Mary M`N o lt es was also committed for trial at the ensuing sessions, charged with stealing a basket of clothes from a public-house in Hurst -street.—William Kelley for one month, for stealing a barrel from on board a ship.—Joseph Lythgoe for the same time, for robbing a till ; and several women, for stealing articles of wearing apparel, for times varying from one to three months. SHIPPING DISPATCH.—The superiority of Liverpool over other ports, in her facilities and accommodation s for shipping, has, we think, been fully proved in the case of the Phoenix, Captain W. R. Greaves, from Antigua, be longing to Messrs. C. W. and F. Shand ; which vessel, with a cargo consisting of 464 hhds. sugar and 221 puns. molasses, besides a number of smaller packages, hauled into dock on Thursday last, discharged and took on board 100 tons ballast and 150 tons goods, and sailed again for Antigua on Saturday, having been only the short space of sixty hours in dock ! We believe this exceeds anything of the kind ever accomplished in Liverpool before. 01 AISISLA n.—on ruesaay sear, as two named Daniel Holl an d an d Willi am Sickle, were return men, ing to St. Hel en ' s f rom P rescot, they met a man of the name of William Dowdell, a porter, residing in this town. Holland and Sickle asked Dowdell to treat them to a quart of ale. Some altercation took place between the parties, and Dowdell pulled out a broad bladed dagger, and stabbed Holland above the left eye, and Sickle on the right side of the forehead and eyebrow ; the police was immediately in attendance, and took the instrument from Dowdell, whom they placed in the station-house. On the following morning the case was gone into by Mr. Earle, when Dowdell was committed to take his trial at the assizes. ANOTHER CASE OF STABBING.—On Saturday, fat the police-court, a rough-looking elderly man, named James Lunt, was charged with stabbing a coal-heaver named Cornelius Walker. From the evidence it appeared that some dispute had existed between the prisoner and Walker, and that they met on Friday in a coal-yard at the top of Old Hall-street, when, after some words, the pri soner took out his knife and stabbed Walker in the breast and stomach. Little hopes are entertained of his recovery. The prisoner was remanded. LATEST NEWS FROM THE UNITED STATES.---By the arrival of the England, line of packet-ship, we have New York papers to the 19th June. The only event of importance of which they bring us intelligence, is the ce lebration, by a public procession in the city of Boston, of the completion of the monument erected on Bunker's hill, of which the foundation-stone was laid eighteen years ago. it is calculated that there were about 300,000 people assembled in the streets of Boston, and 200,000 more upon platforms, balconies, and the roofs of houses, amongst whom were the President of the United States, Mr. Webster, and 108 soldiers of the Revolution, who were eisgaged in the action, most of them, of course, ap proaching the age of 90, and one we perceive nearly 100 years old. Much attention was excited towards this veteran band. After marching in procession through the town, Mr. Webster addressed the vast assemblage, from a platform erected for the occasion, in an oration of great power and beauty, 'but entirely American in interest. The Coltirabia arrived at Boston on the morning of the 18th. THREE CASES OF STABBING.—At the police-court yesterday, Antonio Lewis, an Austrian, was committed to the ensuing assizes for stabbing, on Saturday, a sailor of the name of Joseph Carter, who, it appeared, was quar relling with a foreigner, when the prisoner, to whom he had not previously spoken, stabbed him in the thigh. e l d on to g a th n e d a as n si i z n e c s h f d o e r e s pta.Will; w ia o m un ß d ow w o as w a a b s ou al t s t o w c o o i to n m ch i e tt s bing a young man of the name of Leesome, John .

DEATH FROM LIGHTSING.-01 1 Thursday last, an in quest was held before Mr. Heves, at Melling, in this county, on view of the body of William Currie, a child between four and five years of age, whose death was oc casioned by lightning, Between five and six o'clock the evening previously, the father and mother of deceased, with their six, children, were sitting in the house when the thunder-';;torm, which visited many places on that evin ing, seemed to concentrate itself with fearful violence in the neighbourhood of Melling. The lightning struck their cottage, breaking the windows of the kitchen, and making a hole through one of the shelves ; it then passed through the ceiling, and cut its way through the mantle piece, making a passage through the back of the chimney into the next house, where it seems to have ended its very eccentric career by cutting a flitch of bacon to pieces. As soon as Currie and his wife recovered from the mo mentary shock which the explosion occasioned, they found three of the six children who were with them struck to to the ground; the youngest was quite dead, but the two others recovered after being about an hour in a state of insensibility. The deceased had several wounds on his body—most of them appearing as if they had been scorched. The eldest of the children who were struck, is a girl about eight years old, had a slight wound on her back, and the back of her head was slightly scorched. The jury returned a verdict of died by the visitation of God. SERIOUS CHARGE.—At the Police-court, on Saturday, James Malley, Ch r i s t o ph er M a ll ey , an d Th om a s Malley, three brothers, carrying on business as InAstef ropers, in Lodge-lane, were charged with receiving three bundles of rope-yarns which had been stolen on the previous even ing from the works of Mr. Moore, which adjoin the pri soners'.—Mr. Davenport appeared for the prisoners.— From the evidence of Mr. Moore it appeared that in consequence of property having been missed from his premises for the last three weeks, he had kept a watch during the night, and on the previous evening two parties were observed to try to break open the door of a store room where the yarn is kept, but not being able to effect it they went away, and shortly after returned with a key. After having opened the door they lit a candle, and picked out three bundles of yarn, weighing from two to three cwts., which they took and dropped into the prisoners' walk. He also stated that he knew the parties who had entered the premises, one of whom had served his ap prenticeship with him. Inspector Stone stated that he had received information of the robbery, and saw the three bundles of yarn as deposited in Malley's walk. He premises, and took the p r i s o n er s i n t o cus t o d y. —M r. Moore being re-called, said, the en t rance t o Malley's walk was through an arch wa y i n hi s prem i ses. I t was a a f d t vie er s w e a d r tdha found part parties s t t h o e w y a a t r c h h a i n , w a h lo ic ft h ria a e n n d er h a e , on the usual for them to come before six o'clock. The gate was open when they came, and h e saw th em pass. Th e case excited a great deal of interest. The prisoners were re manded until Tuesday, (this day.) PRESERVATION OF DOCUMENTS FROM FIRE.—It will be remembered that, in January last, Mr. Saml. Woods, jun., with a view to ascertain the respective powers of resistance to fire of several of the most approved patent fire-resisting safes and boxes before the public, procured three boxes of equal dimensions, which he experimentally subjected to the test of strong fires, in a field in the out skirts, before a number of our intelligent and scientific townsmen ; and that the result was highly favourable to the plan of Messrs. Milner and Son, of School-lane, whose safes, in this instance, as well as on trials of others of different sizes, forms, and additional media of resis tance, were found to be greatly superior in preventing documents, and even more ignitable substances, depo sited in them, from being destroyed or injured, even when kept for hours in brisk fires. For the benefit of the public, he afterwards laid before the Polytechnic So ciety the details of these experiments, which have since excited so much general interest, that he has been in duced to publish, in a neat pamphlet, the substance of the paper he then read, together with a great number of tes timonials from individuals in this town, highly recom mendatory of the principle of fire-resistance discovered and applied by Messrs. Milner, whose description, in their prospectus, they fully bear out,—namely, that these boxes, " for the preservation of gunpowder, ledgers, deeds, cash, plate, j ewe l s , an d ot h er va l ua b les, are war ranted to bear more h ea t, w i t h out i n j ury to their con tents, than any other arrangement within equal dimen sions, and, if of not less than one cubic foot of inside measurement, to preserve their contents under the ordi nary circumstances of casual fires." As we noticed the principle at some length at the time of the experiments, we need not here revert to it, but refer to the book itself, which supplies all requisite information (with illustrative drawings) on a subject which, from the lamentable fre quency of fires in the town, has recently become one of more and more importance to mercantile men and the community at large. Copies may be had at the pub lisher's, Mr. Marples, at a small price; the proceeds of sale to be given to the Blue Coat School. THUNDER STORM.—During the afternoon of Wednes day last sever al districts near this town, as well as a num ber of other placca worc rizitcd by ts, thunder storm of unusual severity. The lightning in this neighbourhood was very vivid, and the rain fell most copiously. At Hilbre Island hailstones fell measuring four inches in cir cumference, and an inch and a quarter in diameter. At Manchester the storm does not appear to have been felt, whilst at Huddersfield a poor man was struck by the elec tric fluid, and died instantly. Mr. Leech's new mill at Ashton-under-Lyne was struck, and several panes of glass were broke, and portions of three iron pillars which sup ported one of the principals of the roof were forced out in a very singular manner. Several trees were torn up by the roots at the village of Armley, near Leeds, and one of them was carried a considerable distance in the air, and alighting upon a cow, killed her on the spot. One large tree was twisted in two in the centre of the trunk, and the fibres of the wood at the point of separation appeared twisted together like the strands of a rope. The corn was very much battered down in the neighbourhood of Barns ley, and upwards of £5O worth of damage was done to the vinery of the Rev. H. B. Cooke, near that town. At Wombwell, near the latter town, the destruction was very great. Not a whole square of glass remained. At Leeds much damage was done in the way of windows and glass, and at Sheffield a hundred squares in the old church were destroyed, and the dial in the illuminated clock was de molished. At Derby the electric fluid struck the chim ney of a house in Brook Walk, and descended first into a bedroom, partially forcing the window frame from its place, thence into a lower room from which it escaped by forcing a sash window completely out. The chimney was shattered and broke the roof in its fall, but fortunately no one was injured. The effects of the storm were also felt with more or less severity at Doncaster, Selby, Whitby, Nottingham, Chesterfield, Bradford, Wakefield, Newcas tle-on-Tyne, and other places. The centre of the storm appears to have been Sheffield, where its fury was exces sive. At Rangworthy, near Gloucester, a man was killed by the lightning ; his wife was also struck to the ground, but shortly recovered. We have received a letter from a correspondent at Holywell, from which we learn that pieces of ice measuring two and a half inches in diameter fell. About fifty panes of glass were broken in the paper mill of Mr. J. R. Jones, Afonwen. Cucumber glasses were broken to pieces, and gooseberries were stripped from the trees. NEW Woon PAVEMENT.—Our town readers will be aware that during the assizes the streets round the Court House have hitherto been laid with bark, to deaden the noise in that busy commercial locality. This plan was not found to be very effectual, particularly in wet weather, and we are glad therefore that the authorities have con tracted with the London Metropolitan Wood Paving Company for the laying of the four streets round the building with their approved wooden pavement. A num ber of this company s men have accordingly been for some days engaged, and the process—which is here somewhat new—has excited considerable interest and curiosity. The first operation is to remove the ground to the depth of about eleven inches. The bed at the bottom is then levelled and smoothed, leaving a gentle rise in the mid dle, forming a segment of a large circle across the road. On this is placed a layer of concrete of the lime from Halkin mount in, in W. 1 . 0, ( used lu the mason -work of tne new docks,) coarse gravel and sand, and a considera ble proportion of what is called metallic sand, a dark-co loured powdery substance, from, we believe, the copper mines. This is laid down to the depth of five inches, and, while in a wet state, accurately levelled to the seg ment and gradient of the street. In comparatively a few minutes it sets, so that it may be trodden upon without receiving the impression of the foot; and shortly after wards becomes as hard and compact as stone. The next and final operation is the laying upon this of the wooden blocks. These are, in this instance, of tough Scotch fir, from Inverness, in Scotland. They are six inches deep, in perpendicular measurement, when laid ; but being cut at top and bottom on a parallel level, giving them an in clination or angle of 30 odd degrees, their lateral surfaces topand viewed bottom late s r u a r ll surfaces ace parallelograms, o feac his gen in er p a e l r ly pen s crossing the s t reet are about 64 inches, which is conse quently also the l engt h of the fibre or grain in each. The d b i c y u 1 5 a 1 inches ; and th e y run l engthways across the street, form ing as r rows, each of which alternately inclines one way and then the other. These blocks are not laid down separately as in ordinary pavement, but in conjoint " slabs," or oblong squares of about a yard in area across the street longitu asptfar formed stone probably neemto r ewe t e ed ha a d,onye d stafa i longitu dinally.
