TO CORRESPONDENTS, Lord Fielding is heir to the Earldom of Denbigh. The Council have not yet taken notice of the subject referred to by "A Sufferer." No fnem.rial front the public. has, however, yet been presented to that body expressive of the dissatisfaction experienced. Ebt ?Liberpool &taiibarri. TUESDAY MORNING, SEPT. 17, 1850 Our readers have already seen the declaration put forth by Archdeacon Manning, &c. They will, we are sure, be pleased to see the reply, which we pub lish to-day, which has been sent to these gentlemen by the Rev. Dr. M`Neile. It is a pungent ex- posure of their inconsistency and highly charac teristic of the Doctor's " plainness of speech." Seeing that necessity exists for such writing, we rejoice to have men like him, of capacity and courage suited to such times as these. We shall certainly feel anxious to see the reply which the reverend gentlemen in question will send to this letter. They will find it difficult to escape from the dilemma in which the talented doctor has placed them before their church and country. WE are at some loss to ascertain what can be the pretext under which Mr. Gorge bolt, in ac cordance with the terms of his notice of motion at the last Council meeting, is about to revive the discussion, with the acrimonious feeling attendant upon it, of what is familiarly known as " the school question." Of what I Mr. Holt the recogn in the town sentative ? Wha rty, or sect d re pr party, or sect has called for his interference in this matter? We can discover none, of whom he can be fairly considered the representative. No ex pression of public opinion has summoned him to the Quixotic task, which he has undertaken. The Corporation schools were quietly and steadily doing all that the community expected from them. They were supplying to the children of our worki classes the advar lient education from which no se concession had ig from ti formilaries of tt sted upon was ze of the Wo: of God, as contain and unr translation of parcel of the made part ar ducation of a people, v e institu n as containing the The re tions re standard of the nE of these e that V hools insist upon no peculiar f religious teachir struction from the wor :hetical to no cat ks on reli on of any fallibl man, or any church however pure and ortho All that is required in than is that the insi Word of the living God shall not be book ; that its teach youthful min ciren— not merely be hat they shall +he wisest .sight that Solomon v man, or that the Jews dc but such truths as into hell and all the Abrabarn ple who forget God consis 1,4 , CLLt a loving luty and happine !very' power of min in as they love on of the liberal temati y of m►r cates of a religious edu- there to 'pro Mr. Holt, or and heart themselves.

We merely give tl as a specimen of hundreds of similar instances which might be adduced ; and as a proof that the Church of England without anyloud boasting is doing far more for the sound instruction of the rising generation than all other denomina tions put together. Mr. Holt should remember that it was owing almost exclusively to the kind of instruction imparted in the Corporation schools, that during the recent cominotions all over the world the population of this country (who were avowedly educated on this plan) were " content with their wages," and "meddled not w ith t h ose w h o were given to change," and that the wealthy portion of the community retained, and still enjoy, the quiet possession of their ample means. The second assumption, which may be urged by Mr. Holt and his friends, is that we ought to ex clude religious teaching from the system of educa tion in our schools, in order to induce the children of Romanists and Unitarians to avail themselves of its advantages. We have observed little anxiety of late, however, on the part of either of these classes of sectarians, to be furnished with an edu cation of the non-religious sort, which, we presume, Mr. Holt would prescribe. He is, in fact, a volunteer upon this question. His educational mania is educational philanthropy going a-begging. The worthy gentleman wants a grievance and an excitement; something that will create a stir at the coming November elections; and the educa tional hobby is therefore revived for the occasion. What class of the community would the exclusion of religious education from our schools conciliate ? The Romanists, it will be said. The poor children of Roman Catholic parents cannot, it is alleged, at t en d sc h o ols in which the Bible, unmutilated, is read. Roman Catholic parents, however, we know from experience, feel little scruple on this ground. Their children attend even our Church of England schools, in which the Catechism of the Church of England is required to he taught, They value the excellent system of education af forded there, and in our Corporation Schools ; and they value also its fruits. It is not the poor child ren, or their parents, who object to the present system of management of the Corporation Schools. It is the priesthood of Rome almost exclusively. Romanism loves. " darkness rather than light." Romanism fears the spread of knowledge whether, scriptural or secular. It was Romanism which anathematized Gallileo, pronounced Fust a human demon, and has done its utmost within human memory or tradition to keep mankind sunk in the depths of moral darkness. Mr. Holt would aid them in this holy work; would exclude the Bible from our Corporation Schools, in order that Roman Catholic children might exclusively enjoy the bene fits derived from them—for let it not be forgotten that the Protestant public of Liverpool have already, unmistakeably, by the noble effort tnade by them on the occasion of the establishment of the present Church of England schools, evinced their determination to secure for their children the blessings of a religious education. But what will he achieve by his movement ? Peace ? We can tell him that Romanism will never be satisfied with peace.' Romanism seeks to be in the ascendant. Romanism detests any teaching, which does not ad vance the spread of its own dark and debasing dogmas. A proof of this fact is within our reach. We recently conceded to the clamour of a portion nf our Irish Roman Catholic population an exten sion of the facilities for academical training. We es for the education of their youth s pro at the " gave them wile of every denomination, leaving religious teaching to be provided by the clergy, or by the parents of _ Purely secular is good for such youth education advocated by Roman Catholics and other dissenters in Liverpool Obviously if the Mr. Holt been received wi .atitude in Irelan( vere the Queens colleges founded in land denounced by the Romish hierarchy?

It is insulting to common se any conces ion can b se to tell us that ty made to a power which thus seeks to stifle public opinion, an to enchain the minds of the people which owns its rule. Although we are afraid that we are now too fa gton Pike E able to retrace our steps, opposed as the opponents )f that scheme are by a powerful body in the Coun :il,.there are circumstances occurring around us the parties who have hitherto been its most promi nent supporters. We have already called the atten tion of our readers to the condition, so far as water supply is concerned, of the town of Newcastle-upon. Tyne. A company are now furnishing the people of that town with surface water, collected in the as it is proposed to collect the rainfall upon the Rivington hills. Works have been con structed for the purpose at a cost of £200,000 ; and reservoirs have been provided which it was represented were of sufficient capacity to contain at one time about six months' supply. The streams which were to furnish the water were guaged in the same way as Mr. Hawkesley guaged those of Rivington, and were estimated to be capable of affording nearly twice the quantity required by the town ; yet the result is—we quote from a highly respectable paper, the Newcastle Journal—that "the Whittle Dean scheme is a decided failure."' That paper again returns to the matter on Satur day last, in a long and powerful article, and a few remarks from our contemporary upon the subject may possibly stagger the advocates of the Pike project. The Journal says : " It is impossible to publish the various letters sent and statements made to us with reference to the impure and disgusting condition of the Whittle Dean water, with which the inhabitants of this town are at present supplied. The water is charged with vegetable matter in an ad vanced stage of decomposition, so that the appearance, taste, and smell of it are most offensive : and, besides, it is no uncommon thing to find in it askers and eels moving about in vigorous vitality." same wa This is certainly not th e ki n d o f fl u id w i t h which Liverpool is at present supplied ; and we are a little at a loss to discover on what gr o un d s it i s anticipated that the Rivington articl e w ill b e muc h better than that of Whittle Dean. Both are sur face water. Both must of necessity be ex p ose d i n the reservoirs to the action of the atmosphere. en gendering the growth of vegetable matters and the accumulation of putrid animalculx, the removal of which it is doubtful whether any system of filtra tion can accomplish fully ; to the extent, at all events of rendering the water fresh and pure as it 'ought to be for human use. As compared with .the water of the Tyne, with which Newcastle was formerly supplied, that of Whittle Dean is pro nounced decidedly inferior : _ _ " Under the old system of supply from the Tyne. the great difficulty arose in purification, which was never effected, and hence the discolouration. But the impreg nation of the Tyne by peat moss, and products sof veeeta ble decomposition, was never so extensive as that of the Whittle Dean water now, for the ebb and flow of the tide preventeci it from becoming a stagnant and corrupt mass, like the still water of a reservoir. The plan by which the Tyne water was attempted to be purified was by filtration; that adopted at Whittle Dean is by allowing the ingredients mixed with the water to subside • but that process requires considerable time, and the lower the point at which the reservoir is tapped, the closer approach is made to the subsiding elements. When the clean water is run off, and the influx is insufficient to replace it, then the accumulated deposit of many months must be resorted to, and such is the material now supplied to the inhabitants of Newcastle, alternately with water taken from the Tyne, and imperfectly filtered, if filtered at all." The subject is well worthy of investigation ; and a visit to the locality by some of the members of our Health or Water Committee, might at all events tend to guard us against fatal mistakes in the construction of our own proposed works. The boats of the fishermen at Scarborough have been so loaded within the last few days with herrings, codfish, and salmon, as to make fish attainable almost for nothing. Codfish have been sold there for sixpence each.

Mr. Allies was received into the Roman Catholic Church on Wednesday, by the Rev. Dr. Newman, at St. Wilfred's, near Cheadle. The Rectory of Lsunton is in the gift of the Bishop of London, and is valued at £BOO per annum. COUNTY COURT.—The business of this court was re- sumed yesterday, before Mr. Ramshay, the judge, who has been absent in the north of England for some time. The court was opened at ten o'clock, when about a dozen gentlemen of the legal profession took their seats ; at the same time a number of persons who had business in the lso entered. These parties were detained nearly an hour by the non-appearance of the judge, who took his hortly before eleven o'clock. His appearance did ~nfirm the favourable anticipations entertained as to .4 beneficial results of his Honour's sojourn in the country. He was, perhaps. less feeble than when he last presided in the court ; but there was an absence of any thing like vigour in his bearing. His countenance was as pallid as ever, and, as he came into the court, he betrayed much physical debility. The first case called on was Robert Pritchard v. Matthew Chester. Mr. Wilford, who appeared for the defendant, pleaded his poverty and inability to discharge the debt : some three or four friends had promised to pay it by instalments of !en shillings a Mended for the complainant, 4.4Lect Lu 4.. _ s an attorney, and presumed that he could pay a larger sum. It was finally agreed that the monthly instalments should be one pound instead of ten shillings. Mr. GrivOtt, who a Mr. Chester u THE SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH.-It appears now, from further experiments, that where the rupture of the coil occurred it had rested on a very sharp ridge of rocks, about a mile from Cape Grinez, so that the leaden weights, hang ing pannier-like on either side, in conjunction with the swaying of the water, caused it to part at that point, while at another place in shore the shingle from the beach had the effect of detaching the coil from the leaden conductor, that carried it up the Cape. The wire in its gutta percha coating was consequently cut in two places, representing a remnant of wire, of about 400 yards, which was allowed to drift away, till it came into the possession of a fisher man at Boulogne, who made a demand of 60f. for the in jury he alleges it did to his nets. Complaints are made by the fishermen, both on the English and French ceasts, that the existence of the wire will interfere with their deep sea fishing, and that its track over the Varne and elsewhere is in the way of places most frequented by fish. It is intended to pay these people an annual rental, and to establish for their families a philanthropic fund. The line of wire where it was dislocated is now securely fas tened on to the end of a large buoy. Her Majesty's ship Widgeon, with Captain Bullock, has traversed the rest of the track, fishing up at intervals the whole of the sunk wire out of 100 ft. and 150 ft. of water, and laying it down again, thus proving that it has not drifted, and that there were no currents to remove it. The promoters of the pro ject appear to be fully apprehensive of the inadequacy of the present arrangements, and all their ingenuity is at work to be prepared to meet the emergency. Of currents it may be stated t! - -at there is no fear, since it has been ascertained that at certain fixed fathoms, even in the ra pids of the Mississippi or at the Menai, there are none be low three or four fathoms, and that at five fathoms there is calm water. In order to meet all existing or conjec tured difficulty, the character of the undertaking, so far as its n agnitude and solidity are concerned, will now be al tered. The electric wire, thin as a lady's staylace in itself will now be encased either in a 5 or 10-inch cable of the diameter of those that placed the Britannia tubes in posi tion, and these will be submerged by the aid of the enor mous weights. The wire will be imbedded in this gigantic coil or cable composed of what is called whipped plait with wire rope, all of it chymically prepared, so as to protect it from rot, and kyanised ; the whole to be chained down, as it were, as the rails are on a railway, by the gravitation of the huge weight. is the bottom et the sea. TO ARCHDEACON MANNING, ARCHDEACON WILBERFORM AND' PROFESSOR MILL. VENERABLE AND REVEREND &RS, I have received by the post a Circular bearing your sig natures, and enclosing a Declaration similarly signed, touching the Royal supremacy in matters ecclesiastical. I perceive you do not invite any reply, except from those who are disposed to join you in affixing their names to the Declaration ; but you can scarcely expect to issue indiscriminately an agitating Circular, and receive no re plies but such as are altogether to your taste ; neither have you any just reason to complain, if some of your brethren who widely differ from you upon the subject under discussion, but who (as the Archbishop of Canter. bury has recently remarked) have hitherto observed a respectful silence, should send such answers to your Cir cular as may tend, under the Divine blessing, to disabuse the minds of many who have unwarily gone with you so far, and perhaps to cause yourselves to reconsider the case, and discover how untenable is your present posi tion. First, you describe yourselves as among those who are " bound by oath and subscription to the existing state of the law." Second, you affirm that it is now made evident by the late Appeal, that " the Royal supremacy, as defined and established by statute law, invests the Crown with a power of hearing and deciding in appeal all matters, howsoever purely spiritual, both in discipline and doctrine." Third, you pronounce that " to give such power to the Crown is at variance with the divine office of the Univer sal Church, as prescribed by the law of Christ." Here it would seem to unsophisticated straightforward minds, that your plain and obvious duty is, either to accept as right what is thus proved, as you say, to be " the existing state of the law"; or to withdraw your oath and subscription, and retire from an institution which is thus proved to be, in your deliberate judgment, at variance with the divine office of the Universal Church as prescribed by the law of Christ. To adopt the former course, would be to give up all further agitation, and betake yourselves to the peaceful discharge of your respective duties. To adopt the latter course, would be to show yourselves sincere (however mistaken) in giving to your conscience that practical supremacy which you deny to your Sove. THE LitittlitiOL sTANDAitt But you have as yet done neither. You have ado', a widely different course, and are, in my opinion, at this moment, in practical rebellion against both your Queen and your conscience The one requires you to acquiesce in the existing state of the law, quietly and loyally ; but you are disobedient, declaring and publishing and circulating chat it is at vari- ance with the law of Christ The other requires you not to do evil that good may come ; but you are disobedient, holding your offices and emoluments under the existing state of the law (which yourselves have pronounced to be at variance with the er , I law of Christ) in the hope of prevailing N . .g eventually upon some members of the Legislature to endeavour to obtain some amendment of the law. You seem to feel that your consciences require some relief, and indeed Ido not wonder at it. For this relief, you have put forth a statement of the sense in which you understand the supremacy of the Crown. It is a curiosity. You admit " a supreme civil power over all persons and causes in temporal things, and over the temporal accidents of spiritual things." This quaint expression is, I suppose, derived from the distinction between matter and the acci dents of matter, in which Romish divines so freely in dulz the subject of transubstantiation. Whatever may have been intended by it, it fails to convey any clear and defi nite idea of your meaning. But whatever that meaning hich you acy of the Crown, is at variance with what yourselves declare to be the existing state of understand the supre the law The Privy Council and all the Courts of Common. Law, the matter in another sense : and now you send round a of course form any conjecture as to the number of signa tures you may have received, but I do venture to say, and I think not uncharitably, that if the promoters and the subscribers of the Declaration were required separately and seriatim to define what they understand by the temporat accidents of spiritual things ; we should have a oretaste, perfect Babel of politico-religi'us absurdity—a no way exaggerat :ed, of the unanimity of a Convocation But permit me to ask, have you made up your minds, good casuists, as to how many signatures would justify ure can be fully fried) to an existing state of the law vhich yourselves declare to be at variance with the law of " Your present desire," you say " is, to ascertain to the statute law is felt : and:your future intention is, if circumstances shall justify your hope, to endeavour to prevail on some members of the Legislature to undertake the conduct of this grave and momentous question." You have not stated what your intention is, in the event of circumstances not justifying your hope : neither have you defined or intimated what circumstances would, and what would not, have that effect. Are we, then, at liberty to conclude that your con sciences will be permanently relieved by having publicly declared, that your sense of the Royal supremacy is differ ent from, nay irreconcileable with, what is now proved, defined, and established to be the existing state of the law ? Or, is this only a temporary expedient, pending, first, the trial whether you will obtain signatures enough to justify your attempt upon the legislature ; and second, the fate of such an attempt in the next session of Parliament ? Or, is the attempt to be continued through successive nd successive Parliaments, and your consci thv. de anno in annum, kept at ease in the sessions reception of the revenues and the performance of the duties of an institution at variance, on your own showing, with the law of Christ? Or, is the attempt to be relinquished on finding that the signatures are not sufficient to justi - And what then? Is the existing state of the Is your Declaration that it is at variance with the I LW to stand? of Christ, to stand ? And are you still to stand, before your parishioners, and your country, and the world, and the Judge of the World, as ministers and mercenaries of this anti-Christian Establishment? Surely, if you wish to retain the ordinary respect of mankind, which may be continued to men who are sincere even in error, but cannot, to men who are insincere in anything ; you must either withdraw this Declaration, or withdraw yourselves. _ _ I have not here entered into the merits of the question at issue. Your Declaration is not in my opinion entitled to a grave and detailed argument. You should define distinctly what you mean by the temporal accidents of spiritual things. It will then be soon enough to eluci date, for ycur edification, the inspired law addressed by Saint Peter to all Christians, clergy, and laity, k 1 st Peter, ii., 13-16,) and the xxxvii.,Article of the Church of Eng land ; contrasting them with this canon law of him who is what fancifully called Peter's successor—" Impera ores debent Pontificibus subesse, non prceesse." _ _ If you feel that I am unjust in what I have said, and that you are not involved in spy such alternative as I have described; pray let us hear how you vindicate your present position in connexion with this Declaration and Circular. You are the aggressors in this matter, and cannot now take graceful refuge in silent dignity. If you answer fairly and satisfactorily, I shall rejoice to apologise for having thought and written so harshly of you. If you cannot so answer, none, I think, of your party can, and I wish to retain confidence in your manliness that you will dare to be consistent. If you do not answer at all, judg ment must go by default, and your fellow-countrymen, including your parishioners, will form their own opinions, whatever amount of forbearance may be tenderly mani fested by your bishops. Believe me, it is with unfeigned concern that I write this letter. I grieve most sincerely to think how the ene mies of our holy religion make unhallowed sport of our " unhappy divisions." But you have left us no option. In disregard and defiance of the judgment of her Majesty's Privy Council, of the decisions of all our courts of com mon law, and of the solemnly rec)rded opinions of both our archbishops, you are continuing to agitate the Church and the country. It is most unseemly. We can no lon ger entertain any hope from your sense of propriety, and are therefore compelled to appeal to, what seems to us, the shame of your inconsistency. You will please to take notice in your reply, that this charge is not grounded upon any conduct of your's, in opposition to any interpretation of mine; but on your conduct in defiance of your own interpretation : on your continuance by oath and subscription bound to a state of law, which, you say, you "do not, and in conscience can not"—these are your words—acknowledge to be in accor dance with the law of Christ. I am, venerable and reverend sirs, faithfully your's, HUGH M'NEILE Liverpool, 9th Sept. 1850, CHURCH MissioDrs.—The annual sermons in aid of the Church Miaionary Society were preached in St Mary's Church, Bitkenbead, on Sunday last, by the Rev. Charles Hodgs( n, rector of Barton-le-Street, York shire, after which the liberal sum of X 54 6s. was collected. On Friday evening ► ext the annual meeting of the Bir kenhead Auxiliary to this society will' be held in St. Mary's Church, when the same rev. gentleman, in con junction with others, will detail many most interesting and encouraging facts connected with the operations of the society ; and on the following morning Mr. Hodgson will deliver, in the same church, an address intended especially to awaken an interest in this important work among the younger members of the Church. THE EXHIBITION OF THE LIVERPOOL ACADEMY. The Liverpool Exhibition, which opened on Saturday, is decidedly one of the best which we remember to have visited. We are satisfied, indeed, that runny inferior ones have been presented in the metropolis itself. The merit of the pictures is, on the average, of a higher character than usual, few of them being mediocre, and many of them of a very high class. Amongst these we are glad to ob serve that our own Liverpool artists have produced several pictures of great excellence. The prize of £5O has been adjudged to F. R. Pickersgill, A.R.A.. for his painting of " Samson Betrayed," No. 78. The picture is undoubtedly a fine one ; and, viewed artistically, is deserving of the judgment which it has received. It is boldly and forcibly painted, the leading figure, that of Sampson, especially so. The strength of frame and muscular developement are well depicted, yet without that aggravation which some artists resort to for the purplse of displaying their anatomical acquirements. The figure engaged in shearing the locks of the sleeping man is a fine effort of the painter. His Delilah is less happy. As a whole, however, the prize painting is a most meritorious one. The colouring and the grouping are very fine. No. 18, " Reconciliation of Oberon and Titania," by J. Noel Paton, R.S.A., is a very talented picture, light and dreamy in its style, as becomes a delineation of fairy land. It is the property, we observe, of the Royal Srot tish Academy. The subject of course is treated after Shakspeare's Midsummer Night's Dream, and was painted in 1846-7. The same artist has another picture from the same play, painted in 1849-50, No. 66, the " Quarrel of Oberon and Titania," which evidences in its style the same fine conception of the poet's imagination. No. 124, " Lady Northumberland and Lady Percy dissuading the Earl from joining the Wars against Henry the Fourth," by R. Hannah, is a finely executed picture. The grouping, however, is not good. No. 103, " The Kitchen in the Palace of Sir Thomas Gresham, at Mayfield, Sussex," by Charles Landseer, R.A., ;s open to the same objection, of want of balance, although, as an interior, well painted. Of a very different character is No.. 136, "Coming of Age," by W. P. Frith, A.R.A. The figures to the right contrast the ages of the young heir and his elders very cleverly. No. 256, " Galliotti the Astrologer, showing Louis the Eleventh the first specimen of Printing," by R. S. Lau der, R S.A., is one of the finest pictures in the exhibition. The subject is taken from a passage in Sir 'Walter Scott's novel of Quentin Durward,—"You are engaged, father," said the king; "and, as I think, with this new-fashioned art of multiplying manuscripts by the intervention of ma chinery. Can things of such mechanical and terrestrial import interest the thoughts of one before whom Heaven has opened her own celestial volume ?" The figure of the astrologer is striking and dignified; and that of the king is strictly in keeping with historical accounts of his crafty and hypocritical character. The finish and details of the picture are most artistical. No. 261, " Horses Drinking," by William Huggins, is a fine specimen of animal painting, which even Edwin Landseer need not be ashamed to own. The bay horse, especially, is excellently painted. Mr. Huggins has some other clever pictures in the exhibition. No. 265, " Titania," by Henry Pickersgill, junior, is a picture of great merit. No. 267. " Fish Girl," by 'William Davis, is one of the best which the artist has produced. The figure of the girl stands boldly from the canvas, with a rotundity very cleverly executed ; and the fishes upon her tray are excel lently painted. In a first, and necessarily a hasty notice of an exhibi tion, it is impossible to do much more than to notice in general terms its character, which we have already stated is of a high order. As a proof, it is gratifying to find that a more than usual number of pictures have already found purchasers at, we believe, very good prices. Amongst these are paintings by Thomas Westcott, Robert Tonge, William Huggins, H. C. Pidgeon, E. A. Goodall, Benja min Callow, James Peel, James Sant, T. S. Ccoper, Thos Creswick. Copley Fielding, and others; and couraged to hope for further patronaz the artists who have contributed to this exhibition SOMETHING NEW ABOUT JENNY LIND The American penny-a-liners are certainly an inge nious race ; and we may expect some surprising descrip tions of the career of Jenny Lind during her stay amongs them. She will furnish, no doubt, a ther haustible interest, and afford scope for fi of inex- small extent. The New York Herald for Europe her an article with "All about Jenny Lind"—her departure her sea-sickness—her dancing and singing —her arri which contains some rather remarkable revelations fold that du trot g her stay in Liverpool, 'age existed for everythii i Swedish.

In our Corn market to-day there wag a firm market for Wheat, but without any transactions of great amount. Some transactions have taken place in Flour, for which there was a fair inquiry, at full rates. Indian Corn for Ireland has been enquired for, but few cargoes are offer ing afloat. No alteration in other descriptions. The weather continuing fine for harvest operations, the accounts from every portion of the kingdom lead us to expect a general result, both as to quantity and quality, much more favourable than we durst predict a month ago. In Ireland the crops are being got in rapidly, and fears for the potato crop are dying away. The arrivals in this port, for to-day's market, were, up to Saturday night, 23,000 quarters Foreign Wheat, 1.400 sacks French Flour, and 10,000 barrels American. In Durham and Northum berland much of the corn has been housed in good condi tion, though a considerable quantity is still out.

The Constitutional Association has made 700 objections to v3ters'names on the South Lancashire Registrat ion List, and the Reformers to 500. The days when the revising barrister will attend to revise the list, will be found in our advertising column. ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.—This is, we regret to learn, the last week of the season. The evenings are now highly , favourable for visiting the varied attractions of this favo rite resort, and the public will, no doubt, gladly fivail themselves of this final opportunity to show their estima tion of the liberal engagements of the worthy proprietors. THE SHIPPING . —The still preva ilin g easterly winds prevent the arrival of many inward : bound vessels, now past due. The principal of the emigrant ships n i The t he have been filled at considerably advanced terms. Isaac Wright completed her number . on the 14th, but being limped, will not be able to sail until the 19th. Should the wind veer, a very numerous fleet may be ex pected to show themselves immediately. B OROUGH REVISION. —Yesterday, Mr. Brandreth held a court in the Sessions-house, , Chape . l-street, for the revi sion of the Borough Voters Registration L ist. .Mr. Buckmaster, the Bed!'" secretary of the Constitutnimal Association, appeared . in support of the 247 objections which he had made against parties who were alleged to be disqualified from removal, non-payment of rates, &c. Of these more than 200 were sustained, and the names struck off the list. The Reformers had not made one objection. To -day the freem,n's list will be taken, and on this there will be 382 objections made by the Association, princi pally on account of deaths.
