TO CORRESPONDENTS Had .the. letter headed " The Romish Hierarchy" not been privately authenticated, we could not have believed that " a Liverpool Clergyman" would have deliberately penned such statements. It is little use mincing 'matters in the present day, and we shall therefore openly avow that several of the writers assertions are as unbecoming a clergyman of the Church of England as they are historically untrue. As has been well remarked, "when Papists.have been put to death they were both tried and executed for treason, which is an offence against the State. The only way in which it can be said that such persons suffered for religion is this, viz., that their religion led them into treason." Our cor respondent seems inclined to submit quietly to the Pope's recent insolent assumption, unless measures of his own are adopted to resist it. Well, in the language of the Times, "Let those who believe the Pope and Cardinals to be better friends to the Church and people of this realm than the Queen and Privy Council, remain quiet. Let those who believe that they have more to dread from Rome than En gland, from the representatives of St. Peter than of St. Stephen's, be up and doing." A correspondent suggests to the clergy the propriety of reading from their pulpits as occasions may offer, portions of the Homilies of the Church of England. These valuable church formularies might be largely circulated with excellent effect at the present moment. To.: length of the Cooped meeting yesterday has compelled us to postpone the publication of a number of artic'es which we should have been glad to have otherwise inserted. 7Liberpool &tanbartis TUESDAY MORNING, NOV 12, 1850 We publish to-day the closing letters in the im portant correspondence between the Rev. Dr. M`Neile and Archdeacon Wilberforce, the whole of which we have carefully placed before our readers. The Archdeacon is evidently smarting under the masterly exposure of his unsound and unconstitu tional principles, and his chagrin and disappoint ment are exhibited in his constant desire to escape from the real points in dispute, and in a vain en deavour to fasten on his opponent a charge which he must know to be as unjust as it is calumnious. The artifice is utterly unworthy of a man in much less repute than the Archdeacon. We are glad to hear, on all sides, that the public are satis fied with the Doctor's arguments. They have been well driven home. WE . cannot give our approt al altogether to the proceedings of what is called the " tradesmen party" in our Town Council, on the occasion of the recent election of Aldermen for the vacant Wards. - It is perfectly true that such an honour as an Aldermanship is as justly due to an honourable tradesman as to a merchant. Possibly the former party have been a little overlooked in times past in the bestowal of such honours. It ought - to be borne in mind, however, that there .are valuable members of our community, whom we can only expect to see in the Council as chosen members of the aldermanic body. We cannot, for example, expect such men as Mr. Swainson to court the favours of a constituency. Election eering tactics are foreign to their habits. Mr. David Hodgson again has deserved well of the Protestant population of Liverpool ; and we regret extremely that claims like his should be thrown overboard, at the present crisis, to seat in the aldermanic chair gentlemen who were previously secure in their seats as members of the Council. The uncompromising tone of the letter, ad dressed last week by Lord John Russell to the Bishop of Durham, has tended at once to raise his lordship in the estimation of the Protestants of Great Britain, and to add fervour to their expres sions of indignation at the recent insolent aggres sion of the Papacy, which are now ringing through.. out the land. It is a document worthy of the .ancestral fame of his honoured house, and holds out in prospect, so far as the Premier himself is ,concerned, a result which will be regarded with delight by every sincere churchman. We have a right, we conceive, to hold his lordship pledged by it to far more than a mere protest against the -usurpation by the Pope of the Queen's authority in this realm. It the existing laws are not strong enough to protect her Majesty's subjects from such attempts " to impose a foreign yoke upon their minds and consciences," the propriety of adding to their strength, we are assured, will be deliberately considered ;" and if the words of a statesman in these modern days mean anything definite, we have a right'to conclude that such yoke, as sought to be exercised in this country, will he practically put down. In the same spirit we ought to be enabled to interpret the censure hurled against those unworthy members of our own Church, who " have been the most earnest to forward their flocks step by step to the verge of the precipice.' " When his lordship says of such apostate churchmen, " I have little Lope that the propounders and framers of these innovations will desist from their insidious course ; but I rely with confidence on the people of England, and I will not bate a jot of heart or lope so long as the glorious principles and the im mortal martyrs of the Reformation shall be held in reverence by the mass of the nation," we have surely a right to expect that we shall not be left to work out the Church's purification from their insi dious teachings, unaided by the government of which his lordship is the head. It would give us heart and hope indeed to see his lordship and his colleagues acknowledging in their policy those " glorious principles," and reverencing the " im mortal martyrs of the Reformation," by thrusting oat from the ministry of a Protestant Church a body of men who have crept into it to deface the purity of its doctrines, and to lead their betrayed flocks into the darkness and the bondage of Rome. This, and nothing short of this, is what we ought to be able to hope for at his lordship's hands, if his letter is to he regarded as containing the declaration of the minister as well as of the But hese, unfortunately, misgivings and fears throng upon our minds. To enable him, consistently and firmly, to embrace such a course as that which he has chalked out for himself, Lord John will find himself under the necessity of nulli fying some measures, and recalling some profes sions, upon which he has rested a large portion of his political reputation. This view of the subject is very forcibly put in a letter which has just been addressed by Mr. Disraeli to the Lord Lieutenant of the county of Buckingham. The writer says:— " I have always understood that, when the present Lord Lieutenant arrived in his viceroyalty, he gathered together the Romish Bishops of Ireland, addressed them as nobles, sought their counsel, and courted their favour. On the visit of her Majesty to that kingdom the same prelates were presented to the Queen as if they were nobles, and precedence was given them over the nobility and digni taries of the ,national church ; and it was o n ly th e o th er day, :as I believe, that the Government offered the office of visitor to the Queen's Colleges to Dr. Cullen, the Pope's -delegate, and pseudo Archbishop of Armagh, and to Dr. Millale, the pseudo Archbishop of Tuam. What won der, then, that his holiness should deem himself at liberty to apportion England into dioceses, to be ruled over by his_ bishops ! And why, instead of supposing he was taking a step insolent assumed he was acting of her Majesty's Government ? " The fact is, that the whole question has been surren dered, and decided in favour of the Pope, by the present Government; and the ministers, who recognised the pseudo Archbishop of Team as a peer and a prelate, can not object to the appointment of a pseudo Archbishop of Westminster, even though he be a Cardinal. On the contrary, the loftier dignity should, according to their table of precedence, rather invest his Eminence with a still higher patent of nobility, and permit him to take the wall of his Grace of Canterbury and the highest nobles of the land. nil he not have 71 strict conformity with the wishes idious, " The policy of the present Government is, that there shall be no distinction 'oet,veen England and Ireland. I am, therefore, rather surprised that the Cabinet are so indignant,' as a certain letter with which we have just been favoured informs us they are. " I have made these observations in order that, if the county meets, the people of Buckinghamshire may under stand that the question on which they will have to decide of a graver, deeper, and more comprehensive character than, in the heat of their laudable emotion, they may perhaps suppcse. The question which the people of England are about to demand of the Legislature to decide is indeed "of a graver, deeper and more compre hensive character" than it has been by some re garded. If Ireland is to be considered an integral portion of her Majesty's dominions,—if the Church of Ireland is to be treated as a branch of that National Church of which her Majesty is the re cognized Head—the partition of Ireland into sees by the Pope was as " insolent and insidious," as his more recent "aggression upon our Protest antism in England." Ilis Lordship says : " There is an assumption of power in all the documents which hare come from Rome—a pretension to supremacy over the realm of England, and a claim to sole and un divided sway, which is inconsistent with the Queen's supremacy, with the rights of our bishops and clergy, and with the spiritual independence of tho nation, as asserted even in Roman Catholic times." The nomination of his creatures to episcopal power in Ireland was such an assumption of power as was his proscription of Lord John's pet colleges in that country. Yet, to the last, he has fondled with that usurping power in Ireland, lavished favors and dignities upon its nominees, and virtually resigned into its hands in that country the very supremacy of Queen, which ~he pro, fesses to be so resolved to defend in Great Britain. To be consistent, Lord John Russell must retrace his Irish policy, and rid his fellow subjects in that country from the yoke, and their Protestant Church from the usurpation, of Rome. This he must do, or the insult to his Sovereign will remain galling and degrading in the eyes of the whole christian world. Most strongly do we suspect that, notwithstand ing his recent professions, Lord John is not the statesman upon whcm England can depend in the present crisis. The adoption of that bold and manly course, opened out for him by the insolent aggression of Rome, would raise him to a height of power and popularity rarely attained by a minister in this country. A long lease of office is placed within his reach. Dare be grasp it ? We fear, no. To the people alone, " who reverence the glorious principles and the immortal martyrs of the Refor mation" we are enabled to look for safety in our present emergency. Amongst the constituencies, at the Registration Courts, and at the hustings the battle of the Constitution must he fought. We look for aid in this struggle to the Protestant Clergy of our land. The powerful voices of our M'Neiles, our M'Ghees, and our Stowells must be heard once more in the van of a great popular movement for the infusion of Protestant ele ments' into the British Hoase of Commons, and the formation of a truly Protestant Government, resolute to maintain intact from all aggression, whether from within or from without, the Throne, the Church, and the constitutional liberties of the country. Would that the warnings of these faithful teach ers had been listened to more intently in years past ! We should not at this moment be degraded before the world as prostrate at the feet of insolent and heretic Rome. The people of Liverpool. at least, would have been privileged, through the medium of uncompromising representatives, to raise their protest in Parliament against the recent dangerous concessions to this aggressive power. Let us take warning then from the conse- nuences of past neglect and blindness. Let our Protestant Associations he up and stirring. Let our old champions be summoned to the field, and Liverpool be prepared to reassume her old and proud pre-eminence as the stronghold of Protest antism, by returning triumphantly two sound and unflinching Protestant members to the Par liament of the Empire THE `• Great Exhibition of the Works of All Nations" promises to be a failure. We should not wonder, indeed, if it resulted in producing disappointment and heartburnings amongst the very classes for whose behoof in especial it was at first projected. Already, difficulties are presenting themselves to the general committee on every side. The money comes in slowly. Localities, from which great support was expected, are showing lukewarmness ; and the details of management are becoming more and more perplexing. - - On Thursday last a meeting of the General Committee was held at the Mansion-house to re ceive Reports upon the state of the Subscription List, and for "other important business," at which the following untcward facts transpired. The total amount of subscription received, or proritised, up to this time, after all the canvassing and artful dodging for support, to which even the Royal Con sort has been compelled to lend himself. amounts, we are told, to only £75,000 ; and of this the city of London, we are told, has contributed nearly £30,000. A large portion of the remaining sum, it is to be inferred, has been contributed by the nobility, members of Parliament, and others, pos sibly more as a matter of compliment to the illus trious originator of the affair than for any decided leaning in favour of its usefulness. "There was some time ago tench apathy evinced with respect to the Exhibition," one of the secretaries informed the meeting ; " but a reaction had taken place, and"—what does the reader suppose ?—" they had in their favour that great organ of public opinion, the leading journal of Europe."! Wonderful if the Times could not be got to lend its influence to any species of humbug emanating from high plales ! The public was told further that the charge for admission to the Exhibition " would depend upon the amount of money subscribed ; and, if the subscriptions were not considerably in creased, tha admission would be very high." We must come out with our money, or the glass palace of Mr. Paxton will be a resort beyond the means of the million. Most wonderful is the humble attitude which Manchester is fated to assume in this Exhibition of arts and manufactures. The country asks for " machinery, the fine arts, and manufactures," in which Manchester ought to be pre-eminent. Tne secretary says, " he thinks he may be allowed to contrast this with the returns from Manchester, which place requests ' for a space of only about 3,500 feet.' " This is a sad admission that Man chester has little of novelty either in machinery, the fine arts, or manufactures to exhibit. Her "cheap and nasty" imitations of decent foreign goods; her fugitive coloured prints, and her cali coes made up of plaster of Paris and flour starch, overlaid upon calicoes, which answer the descrip tion of Dr. Johnson's idea of network—" anything reticulated or decussated, at equal distances, with interstices between the intersections,"—will form, we imagine, a poor sort of a reliance against the more perfect goods' of France and Switzerland for a verdict of supremacy in the cotton manufacture. The most striking and serious difficulty, how ever, felt by the committee, is that of determining to whom the merit of perfection in various branches of manufacture is to be attributed. The London importer, for example, would gladly claim for him self the merit of various articles which he sells. Such houses as Swan and Edgar, and Howell and James would be rejoiced to be announced to the world as the authors of approved designs in silk, in woollen, or other fabrics. The question how ever presents itself, is the London importer to be set down as the party to whom ingenuity and taste in these goods owe their acceptance with the public. There may be a partnership in the affair. A British house may have designed, and a foreign one exe cuted. Who is to decide whether to the designer or to the manufacturer the palm of merit is due? This is one of the most pressing difficulties of the Exhibition of arts and sciences, which is now ap proaching. Dr. Wiseman landed at Dover on Sunday from Ostend, and left for London immediately. The new Baron of the Exchequer—Mr. S. Martin—is the first Irishman who ever filled a similar post in Eng land. He is son-in-law to the Lord Chief Baron. The Town Council on Saturday determined to apply to Parliament, next session, for powers to use fires and lights in the docks. The new Atnerimi steam-ship Arctic has taken her station in the Hufiliisson Dock, bein; the first of these vessels that has entered. DOCK CHAIRMAN. —We are glad that Mr. Thomas Littledale has allowed himself to be re-elected dock chairman, a .greater compliment he could not have been paid. _ _ The Rev. Dr. Al`Neile preached two sermons in St. John's Chapel, Bedford-row, London, on Sunday last. The Rev. T. Nolan is the incumbent. The Rev. Dr. preaches in Birmingham this evening. A meeting will be held this evening in St. Jude's school-room for the purpose of forwarding a congrega tional address to the Queen on the subject of the late Papal aggression. Yesterday a young lad named Watson, of respectable appearance, was committed for trial charged with embez• zling £1 17s. 6d., which he had received from a person on account of his master, Mr. Yates, estate agent, Compton Chambers. ST. SILAS' Cnuacri.—The Rev. Samuel Minton, M.A. has been appointed by the trustees to the incumbency of St. Silas' Church ; an appointment which we feel confi dent will give every satisfaction to the members of his congregation. The reverend gentleman will preach twice in the church next Sunday. TILE WARDS.—In consequence of the recent election of aldermen, there are now vacancies in the Council for St. Anne's 'Ward, Everton Ward, Vauxhall Ward, and Pitt street Ward. For St. Anne's Ward Mr. Stitt and Mr. Tyrer are candidates; for Everton, Mr. G. G. Hornby and Mr. Walthew ; for Vauxhall, Mr. W. Nicholson ; and for Pitt-street, Mr. W. M'Millen. COMPLIMENT TO A CAPTAIN.—The passengers by the ship " Republic" from this port to New York on her last outward trip, presented to the gallant commander, Capt. Marshall, an address expressive of their gratitude for his " unprecedented kindness and attention, and for the hap piness which they enjoyed during the whole voyage under his protection." The worthy captain was also presented with a silver salver bearing a suitable inscription. AN UNKIND BRIDESMAID.—Amongst the cases which came on for hearing before Mr. Rushton yesterday morn ing, was one in which an old Irish woman, named Cathe rine Doran, was charged by Margaret Moran with having pledged some articles belonging to the latter. When called on for her defence, Catty Doran launched out in most mellifluous style, on the unkindness of Mrs. Moran, the climax of which was, " yer worship, she's my brides maid." Looking at the age and personnel of the fair penitent, this was too much for the gravity of the ma gistrate, who could not refrain from joining is the uniyer. sal burst of laughter. THE titin - Upon STANDARD. THE PAPAL AGGRESSION, A public meeting of the inhabitants of Birkenhead was held in the Town Hall last night, for the purpose of expressing their sentiments on the bull which the Pope of Rome has had the presumption to send into this country. The Rev. Andrew Knox presided and the addresses of the various speakers were received with great enthusiasm. The following addresses to the Queen and the bishop of the diocese were unanimously agreed to : "TO THE QUEEN'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. "The petition of the unders'gned inhabitants of the parish of Birkenhead, county of Chester, "Humbly sheweth---That your petitioners are deeply sensi ble of the great blessings, civil and religious, which this Protes tant country has enjoyed since its emancipation from the thral dom of the Bishop of Rome. "That they view with just indignation the audacious attempt of that foreign potentate once more to intrude his authority into your Majesty's realms by pretending to create dignities, and confer local and provincial jurisdiction on prelates of his own appointment. "That this power is not conceded to the Pope even by the Roman Catholic Sovereigns of Europe, and was not admitted into this country during the darkest period of Papal usurpa tion. " That it has been one of the great bulwarks of the liberties of this nation that no toreign prince or potentate bath, or ought to have, any jurisdiction, power, superiority, pre-eminence, or authority, ecclesiastical •r spiritual within this realm,' and therefore that the attempt to break down that bulwark by insi nuating such foreign jurisdiction, ought to be met with power fulanddetermined resistance. _ _ "That may it please your Majesty, we consider it our duty to add that it is our painful conviction that this audacious attempt of the Bishop of Rome is the necessary result of the policy adopted for some years past by your Majesty's ministers towards the Romish Church in Ireland, where Romish bishops have been allowed to usurp the titles of the lawful bishops of the Irish Church—yea where those titles have been acknow- . ledged, and precedence given to the said bishops over the nobi lity and dignitaries of the Irish Church, by your Majesty's chief representative in that country. "That your petitioners therefore desire to express their devoted attachment to your Majesty's person, and their deter mination, as loyal subjects to uphold your royal supremacy, in connexion with those glorious. Protestant principles which placed yo ir Majesty's illustrious house upon the throne. "Ai d they humbly pray that your Majesty will be pleased to take si ch measures as in your royal wisdom shall seem best to nut dodo the intolerable pretensions of the Bishop of Rome, to repel his wanton invasion of your Majesty's supremacy, to rebuke the insult offered to your Majesty's Protestant subjects, and to 'prevent the acknowledgement or assumption within your Majesty's dominions of any ecclesiastical dignity, pre eminence, or jurisdiction, conferred by him or any suco foreign prince, potentate, or bishop." TO THE RIGHT REV. FATHER IN GOD, JOHN, BY DIVINE PERMISSION, LORD BISHOP OF CHESTER " We. the undersigned incumbent, churchwardens, and in habitants of Birkenhead, approach your Lordship with every feeling of reverence for your sacred of "We feel called upon to protest against the insult to the sovereign Church and people of England, by a foreign• bishop, the Pope of Rome, who arrogates to himself the supremacy of the Universal Church as the pretended successor of St. Peter, falsely declared to be the Prince of the Apostles. " lie has presumed schismatically to divide your Lordship's diocese, and to appoint an intrusive bishop topreside over part of it, by the style and title of Bishop of Liverpool, thereby breaking that unity of which he falsely professes himself to be the centre, denying virtually the legislative authority of the English Episcopate, the validity of English orders, and supre macy of the British Sovereign, the sole fountain of honor and dispenser of titles in this realm, and attempting to reduce beneath the papal yoke the free and Protestant people of England. —As we are convinced that this act of the Pope is the legiti mate and necessary consequence of the Ministerial policy towards the Itoinish Church in Ireland, where the usurpation of titles on the part of the Romish bishops has been recognised arid precedence given to the said bishops over the lawful bishops of the Irish Church, we therefore , beg to assure your Lordship of our unswerving attachment to the Protestant prin ciples of the reformed Church of England, of our determina tion to support your Lordship in any endeavour your Lordship may feel called upon to make for vindicating our outraged church, the maintenance of the principles of the British Refor mation and the withdrawal of all State support, recognition, and countenance from the Romish Church in Great Britain and Ireland." A numerous meeting was also held in the school-room attached to Christ Church, Oxton, last night, when a learned and lengthy address was delivered by the excellent incumbent, the Rev. F. Taylor, and here also addresses similar to the above were unanimously adopted. PROSPERITY OF THE PORT OF LIVERPOOL 'We learn from parliamentary returns that the amount of British tonnage cleared outwards at London and Liver pool, during the first eight months of the present year, for the following places was as under : Caicutta. Bomhay. China. Singapore tons.. tons. tons. tons. At London 4J,64t 30,460 15,778 5,614 Liverpool .... 51,876 37,711 11,104 5,256 We were prepared to see that the trade of. Liverpool was greatly on the increase with the East and China, but not to the extent which it appears to be. By a reference to the above figures, it will be discovered that we have over taken London in the export of shipping to Calcutta and Bombay - , and that we are running our wealthy neighbour a hard race with China, which in a very few • years we expect to win. As yet we make no comparison, as far as regards Madras, Mauritius, the Cape, and New South Wales, though we are happy to observe with respect to the latter that we are gradually progressing. With Ceylon also we are making rapid strides—our outward shipping being more than one-half of that from London; 2,571 against 4,669.: These remarks only refer to the tonnage outwards, for the first eight months of the present year; we shall have to wait till next year for the result of the homeward voyages. The position - of the trade and port , of Liverpool is indeed a proud one, and we hope to see the Dock Corn. mittee proceed steadily in their dock improvements, as well as give every facility to the increased requirements of the port, arising from steam navigation, &c. SeACOMBE VERRY.—Since the termination of tho negociation between the Wallasey Commissioners and the Lessees of the aeacombo Ferry, we learn that a survey is about to be made by the Lord of the Manor of the Sea combo shore, with the view of fixing upon a new site for a ferry, to be situated somewhere between Seacombe and Egremont. SIR WILLIAM DON IN AMERICA.—The Herald for Europe states that Sir Wm. Don, who our theatrical readers will remember played for several nights at the Amphitheatre as a " distinguished" amateur, has made a highly favourable impression in New York, and been received by one of the largest audiences-ever teen in the Broadway Theatre. During December, January, February, and March the American steam-ships will run every alternate week with the Cunard line, thus preserving a weekly winter communi cation with New Mark. The days of departure chosen by the American steamers during the interval in question will be precisely those now adopted by the novel mail vessels, namely, from Liverpool, Saturday, and from New York, Wednesday. On Friday night a young man named Manning arrived here from London, on his way to Ireland. He was in duced by a woman to go into a house near Waterloo road, and here be was plundered after being " hocussed' of seven sovereigns, a bag containing wearing apparel and even the east on his back. The woman was taken into custody, and•a man in whose house some of the pro perty was found. Oa Sunday, the congregation of St. George's Church were shocked by a drunken man entering the church with out his coat, and deliberately taking a seat near the pul pit. No notice however was taken of the unseemly intru sion until the apparition caught the eye of the clergyman just as he was about to give out the text, and he immedi ately directed the pew opener to have the man removed, which was done without causing any disturbance. AN INTRTIDER.—A respectably-dressed young man, whose name was given as Thomas Elliot, was charged by Mr. Robert Roberts with having on the previous day ( Sunday) offended the propriety of a temperance meeting house, in Bond-street, by walking irk,while the members were at worship, in a state of intoxication, and demanding in a loud voice that the preacher should talk about what he ( Elliott ) could understand, and not nonsense. In his defence Elliot said he considered it was an ordinary tem perance meeting, and that he had a eight to give expression to his opinions. —The usual fine of 2ve shillings and costs was imposed. _ _ Islington Presbyterian Churchwasre-opened on Sunday, after painting, &c., by two sermons by the Rev. V. M. White. The collections amounted to £73 15s. Mr. White delivered the first part of his lecture on " the pre tended unity of the Church of Rome as opposed to the real unity of the Church of Christ." The church was densely filled in every part, many being unable to gain admittance. The subject of Romish unity will be con cluded on next Sunday evening, on which occasion Mr. White will notice the vanities and contradictions of the Romish Church on the boasted topic of supremacy, and the church's interpretation of the scriptures. "EVERTON WARD.—It will be seen by an advertisement in our columns, that Mr. G. G. Hornby, is a candidate for the vacancy in Everton Ward, occasioned by the election of Mr. Langsdale to fill the office of alderman. Our readers will remember the services of Mr. Hornby whilst member for another Ward, and the peculiar agency by which lie was unseated. Mr. Hornby was, as a member of the Church Expenditure Committee a little too particular, some people thought, in his inquiries into the cost of certain encaustic tiles and Pusevite obser vances required for St. Martin's Church. The present is a crisis in which the Protestant community of Liverpool can very properly repair the error committed in his re jection. Mr. Hornby must not again be set aside on account of his thorough Protestantism ; especially as we can assure the electors of Everton Ward that he will be as assiduous and persevering in the promotion of their interests as they can possibly desire. Let them at once secure his return, and they will never regret having in trusted the affairs of their Ward to so honourable and intelligent a representative. WHITTLE DEAN WATER.—Notwithstanding the co pious rains that have lately fallen, and the extraordinary forbearance of the public towards the Whittle Dean Water Company, there is no improvement whatever in the quality of the water supplied to the inhabitants of this town ; and the resorvoirs at Whittle Dean are still empty, or nearly so, which latter fact fully accounts for the large quantity of slimy matter to be found in domestic utensils after the water has remained in them for a short time. The yellow sandy matter is no doubt obtained from the river, the engine at Elswick having supplied the purpose of a dredger above the bridge. We have no de sire to censure the Whittle Dean Company without suffi cient ground for doing so ; but, the existing state of things ought not to be tolerated. The inhabitants, however, must protect themselves. The company have broken faith with the public, and we believe no court of justice would enable them to enforce their rates, without enjoin ing a more strict compliance with the terms of letting than the Company have lately observed. "Stop the sup plies," has become a fashionable mode of action, and there can be little doubt would have a salutary effect upon the directors and shareholders of the Water Com pany. A public meeting of the inhabitants ought to be convened, and a strong course resolved upon, and no doubt the managers of the Water Company would %Km be brought W their floam.—Newcattle Journals ADJOURNED MEETING or THE TOWN COUNCIL YESTERDAY. The adjeurned Quarterly Meeting of the Town Council took place yesterday ; John Bent, Esq., the newly-elected Mayor, in the ch air. Mr. J. B. MOORE then moved the adoption of an ad dress to the Queen, on the subject of the Papal aggressions in England. It was also agreed to present a resolution to Lord John Russell. expressing entire and hearty approval of the principles enunciated in his letter to the Bishop of Durham. The following are copies of the address and resolution : "TO THE QUEEN'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. "The humble Address of your Majesty's loyal and faithful sub- Lcts, the Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses cif the borough of Liverpool, in Common Council assembled, " SHEMETH,—That we your Majesty's most loyal subjects desire at the present juncture to approach the throne and declare our unalterable attachment to your Majesty's person and to the Protestant institutions of our country. "That your Majesty's petitioners declare that the ascendancy of the House of Brunswick to the Throne of England has been the means, under God, of preserving to us that liberty, both civil and religious, which has raised this country to its pre eminent position in the scale of nations; and we view with feelings of indignation the recent arrogant and presumptuous attempt of a foreign monarch to parcel out the realm of Eng land into ecclesiastical divisions • thus invading the Royal pre rogative of your Majesty, and virtually assuming a power which our constitution has vested in .your Majesty alone. "Your petitioners believe that the power assumed by the Pope of Rome is not only derogatory to your Majesty, and to the governmeht and people of this Protestant land, but that, if permitted, it will be the precursor of still further encroach ments on your Majesty's prerogative, and the liberties enjoyed by your Majesty's subjects ; and we are anxious to assure your Majesty of our determination to uphold the privileges of the throne, which is founded not only on our Protestant institu tions, but in the hearts and affections of the British people. We venture to express a hope, and urgently appeal to your Ma jesty, to take such steps as your Majesty's wisdom shall sug gest, to prevent any foreign potentate from conferring titles, civil or ecclesiastical, in this realm, and otherwise interfering with your Majesty's undoubted rights." The following is the resolution : • "That the Council has read with feelings of the highest gratifi cation, the timely and admirable letter addressed to the Right Rev. Lord Bishop of Durham. by the itt. Hon. Lord John Russell, and entirely and heartily approve of the principles therein expressed, and his determination to maintain, unim paired, the great constitutional doctrine that no foreign prince or potentate will be permitted to fasten his fetters upon a nation which has so long and so nobly vindicated its rights to freedom of opinion, civil, political, and religious." And " That - the cordial and sincere thanks of this Council be presented to his Lordship, as the prime minister of the crown, and the organ of her Majesty's government, for such declaration of opinion as must re-assure all her Majesty's sub jects of the unabated desire of those in power to uphold in its integrity the religious freedom of the British empire." Mr. Bramley-Moore, Mr. S. Hohne, and the Mayor, were appointed a deputation to present the address and resolution. Mr. A. F. JONES denied that he had said, as reported in the Journal, that there was a tacit understanding that Mr. Littledale should be mayor at the expiration of the year. Mr. LITTLEDALE moved that Messrs. Preston, Holt, C. Turner, J. Holme, and M. Gregson, be appointed to the Dock Committee. Mr. ROBINSON moved that the name of Mr. J. M Wood be substituted for M. Gregson. _ _ On a division, there appeared for Mr. Gregson, 28 votes, and for Mr. Wood, 17. Mr. Littledale's list was then carried. THE DOCK CHAIRMANSHIP, The MAYOR.—I have now to read a letter from Mr. Thos. Littledale addressed to the late Mayor. It is to the following effect :—" The period of the year at which changes are made in the formation of Committees having arrived, I beg respectfully to tender to you my resignation as chairman of the Dock Committee." I presume it will now be competent for the Council to elect a chairman to-day, in the room of Mr. Thomas Littledale. Mr. BENNETT.—What is the date of that note ? The MAYOR.—November Gth. Mr. FERGUSON hoped that Mr. Littledale would con sent to again act as chairman of the Dock Committee, and withdraw his resignation. Mr. JONEs.sincerely hoped and trusted that Mr. Little dale would see the necessity of doing what Mr. Ferguson had suggested. The tact and ability displayed by Mr. Littledale had been so great and his assiduity so consis tent. it would be highly desirable he should again consent to take the dock chair. Mr. RomNsoN stated that Mr. Rankin, the deputy chairman., desired him to express the great desire that he had that Mr. Littledale should again accept the office of chairman of the dock estate. He also stated he had not a doubt that the whole mercantile body would have joined with h - im in, expressing their wishes that Mr. Littledale should take the office, if time were allowed. (Hear, Karr, and cries of " Mr. Littledale.") Mr. LITTISDALE then rose, and said he did not know what would be said of his consistency, when, after send— ing in his resignation, he was called upon to withdraw it. That resignation cost him a considerable effort, but the duties of that office had occupied so much of his time that he confessed he was not sorry to be relieved of the responsibility attaching to it. However, after the ex pression of opinion. on the part of the Council, he was• glad to bow t& its decision. (Great applause.) The resignation was then withdrawn, and Mr. Littledale was unanimously re-elected to the dock chair. The quarterly meetings of the Council for 1851 were fixed for the first Wednesday in February, the first Wed nesday in May, and the first Wednesday in August. THE RECRIVERSHIP OF TOWN DUES Mr. HORNDY, in rising to move the appointment of a. receiver of town dues,.in the place of the late Mr. Corrie, said he had great pleasure in proposing that Sir Thomas- Brancker be appointed receiver of town dues in the room of the late Mr. Thomas- Corrie. He was sure every gen. tleman present who was acquainted with Mr. Corrie must deeply deplore the loss of this valuable servant. No more honourable man than Mr. Corrie ever existed in this com munity, nor no man ever discharged more zealously the responsible duties of his office. So long as he retained his health, he performed them admirably.—Sir T. Brancker was so well known, both in the Council and in the town generally, that it was almost unnecessary that he should do more than submit the proposition he had made to the Council. He might, however, observe, it was an office of very great importance, and one which required great dis cretion in its management. The gentleman who presided' over that office should be a man of sound judgment, for cases frequently were brought under his notice, and ap peals were made to him, where, if mistakes or blunders were made, very serious inconvenience would result to the affairs of the Corporation. He should be a man of strict integrity, for a large sum was received from those dues. The receipts from town dues comprised nearly two-thirds of the whole income cf-the corporation. He should be a• man of courteous manners, and of imperturbable temper, for he would have cases and persons to deal with that would require a constant exercise of both of those quali ties. He should also be an able accountant, and he should be regular and diligent in the discharge of the duties of his office, and therefore he knew no man in the commu nity who had those qualifications in a higher degree than Sir Thos. Brancker. Titte was besides fully acquainted with the whole of theaffitirs of the Corporation, and he (Mr. Hornby) was sure there was no one who had so great a knowledge of its former history and records. There was a circumstance connected with Sir Thomas Brancker's earlier career as a member of the Corporation, which had only come to his knowledge within the last few days,,and which displayed in so-striking a light his judgment and zeal for the public good, that he (Mr. Hornby) hoped• the Council would pardon him for alluding to it. In. the time of the late corporation it was well known, an attempt was made to contest the legal right of the corporation to town dues. The council and the town-clerk of the day were fully persuaded that the title to those dues rested only on prescriptive usage. Sir Thos. Brancker alone supported the views- taken by the late Mr. Okill, who was confident that a clear documentary title might be esta blished. But this could not have been done without the outlay of a considerable sum of money, and it was a large one,—X6oo or X7,4)4. Mr. S. HOLME.—£6OO. Mr. HonNuy.—He furnished it out of his own pocket, and at his own risk and responsibility. In fact, had he not been successful, he never would have received one farthing of this. money again. They were very. well aware that Mr. Okill succeeded in placing the title of the Cor poration to the town dues 'on a foundation so sure that; nothing but arbitrary violence would ever be able to dis turb it. But he Mr. (Hornby) believed the public were not aware that, without the material support and the pecuniary assistance which Sir Thos. Brancker afforded Mr. Okill, on that occasion, in all probability, they would then have no town dues. He was sure they could make no appointment which would give greater or more general satisfaction out of doors than this. He begged, therefore, to propose that Sir Thomas.Brancker be, and is, hereby appointed receiver of town,dues, customs, and an anchorage, at a salary of £7OO a year, the Council providing a suitable establishment of clerks and assistants, &c., to be approved by them, and, in the event of Sir Thomas Brancker beinc , appointed,.to find sureties to the amount of £5,000 for the due performance of the duties of the office. Mr. Rims HOLMES seconded the resolution. The MAYon. read a letter from Sir Thomas Brancker., applying for the appointment. Mr. PARKER expressed his approval of the appointment of Sir Thomas Brancker. Mr. BIGHAM concurred in the proposition mad , ' by Mr. Hornbv, but moved, as an amendment, that the salary be £5OO a-year, instsad of £7OO. Mr. FERNIIIOUGH secoflded the amendment. Mr. FISHER hoped the Council would accede- to the proposition made by Mr, Ilornby. Mr. DOVER did not object to the appointment of Sir Thos. Brancker, but he considered in the altered circum stances of the times, the cheapness of food, and the smallness of profits, that £5OO per annum was quite sufficient. Mr. THOMSON asked if the Town Dues. Accounts were audited, and whether there had not been something wrong in the accounts. In fact had they not been falsified. Mr. IloßNsy There was an embezzlement. . Mr. HODSON asked would the salary of 4700 or £5lO be absolute. Mr. PROCTER: Certainly. Mr. B. MOORE supported the salary of £7OO. The duties of tho office were very responsible ; they were year by year increasing. Mr. NEILL defended the memory of Mr. Corrie, whose probity and honour wore universally admitted, from the reflection that had been cast by Mr. Thomson. Tne em bezzlement had occurred through the dishonesty of a clerk, when Mr. Corrie was broken down by disease. Mr. TnomsoN denied that he had ever intended to cast g reflection on Mr. Corrie. Mr. Rosaus was sure the appointment of Sir Thomas Brancker would he well received by the town at large. Mr. S. HoLam was in'favour of continuing the salary at £7OO. He referred at some length to the services of Sir Thomas Brancker, and combatted the views of Mr. Dover, that, because food was cheap, it was a ground for the reduction of this salary. Mr. 00DFANT paid tho WEN Iteceicer 01 Tun Dues was a perfect sinecure. Mr. Corrie had two superior clerks who performed all - the duties. It was understood by the_ Paid Officers' Committee that they should commence their reduction with this office. Mr. HoRNBY having replied, the amendment was lost by a majority of 31 to 17 ; and the original motion was carried. On the motion of Mr. HORNBY the several officers of the Corporation, annually appointed, were re-elected at the samo salaries, a clause being appended to the resolu tion giving the Paid Officers' Committee power to deal with those salaries should they deem any reduction ne cessary. The usual routine resolutions, as to the keeping of the keys of the treasure chest and the Corporation seal, were also passed. The standing orders of the Council were again con firmed, Mr. Henderson's suggestions relative to the motions standing over from one Council, being first at the next Council, and adjourning the consideration of the outlay of money from the Council at which it was originated to the next monthly or quarterly meeting of the Council, being negatived. A resolution was also passed, ordering the books of the different committees to be placed in Mr. Topping's office, for the inspection of the members of the Council, three days previous to the meetings of Council. APPOINTMENT OF COMMITTEES. - - Mr. HO!trißY moved that the following gentlemen con stitute the Finance Committee for the ensuing year : Messrs. J. Lawrence, J. B. Moore, J. Parker, J. P roc t er , J. H. Turner, Wood, Cooper, Tyrer, W. P. Frame, John Holmes, S. Holme, W. J. Horsfall, J. A. Tobic, and J. Fernihough. _ _ Mr. Tom.mtir said he was anxious to be upon the Finance Committee, but had been several times objected to because he was a professional man (a solicitor.) He scarcely thought this objection could be established. The objection was not taken by the legislature, and he was surprised it Should be taken there. Mr. HORNBY said a rule had been established in the Finance Committee not to have solicitors upon it. He trusted Mr. Toulmin would not consider there was any attempt to cast a reflection on him or the profession tcr which he belonged. At the same time, he thought the exception a very proper one. They should bear in mind they sat there for the public, not for their clients, and there was no doubt that a solicitor who was a member of the Finance Committee would have advantages over his brethren. Mr. AvlsoN observed that Mr. J. S. Leigh had been a member of the Finance Committee. Mr. J. B. LLOYD did not think that solicitors should be excluded. Every man sent into that Council had a per fect right to be on every committee connected with the Council. The names of the gentlemen were them put seriatim. On Mr. W. J. Horsfall's name being put, that of Mr. Toulmin was proposed as an amendment, and on a divi sion Mr. Toulmin was elected by 27 to 24. The name of Mr. Thomas Lloyd was subsequently proposed as an amendment upon that of Mr. Toulmin, but was nega tived by a majority of 31 to 14. Two amendments were proposed on the name of Mr, Fernihough,—Mr. Langsdale p r op o s e d M r . Ll o yd, an d Mr. C. Turner Mr. W. J. Horsfall, but both names were negatived, and Mr. Fernihough's was retained. WATCH COMMITIW, Mr. J. H. TURNER proposed that the following gentle men compose the Lighting and Watch. Committee : Messrs. J. •H. Turner, J. A. Tobin, S. Woodruff, J. Thomson, J. Ferguson, J, Rogers, W. P. Freme, J, John son, J. Atkinson, J, Fernihough, T. Lloyd, J. Bigham, T. M. Wood, M. Gregson, W. P. Jefferies. and 0. Holden. Mr. HORNBY objected to having so many brewers and pawnbrokers on the Watch Committee. The MAYOR was sorry he had such a dislike to brewers Mr. THOMSON asked what merchants were? they not a kind of pawnbrokers ? (Cries of ordet.) Mr. HORNBY did not wish to cast any kind of personal reflection, but he objected on principle. This was not the first time the question had been mooted. There were many gentlemen connected :with the brewing trade for whom he had the highest estesm. but he had a particulhr objection to them being on the Watch Committee. Mr. TwoalsoN had no objection to withdraw to make room for any other person Mr. WOODRUFF said as he had been alluded to by the Chairman of the Finance Commitee, he wished to tell the Council that if any gentleman had a fear that the business to which he belonged might influence him, he begged his name to be struck out. Mr. GODFREY wished to know in what position the Mayor would be placed, asa member of all the Commit tees. Mr; floravnY begged to tell Mr. Godfrey that, as chief magistrate of the town, he would be excluded from acting at the licensing sessions, and that by. act of parliament— Mr. BENNETT : This is a needless discussion. Mr. Hormsv : I beg to say it is not: The MAYOR : I can look at it in no other light. Mr. HORNBY : (warmly) I meant nothing personal, and I . beg it will not be taken in any other light. Mr. BiGuAmlooked upon Mr. Hormby's observations not only as a gratuitous insult offered to the brewers and pawnbrokers, but also to the trading easses of the town. Mr. HORNIIN order):__ beg to tell M. Bigliam—( cries of The MAYOR.—I must put a stop to this: (Applause.) The names of the several gentlemen were then nut. On Mr. Fernihough's name being, put, he declined to act on the committee. Mr. Bigham proposed the name of Mr. Godfrey as an amendment upon thatof Mr. Fenii bough, but on the votes being taken, Mr. Fernihough had a large majority, and at the request of several members of the .Council, Mr. Fernihough consented to act. 111 t. 1 - 1611Nux proposed Mr. Hodson; ill.ouposition to Mr. Bighorn. ificonsiderable discussion followed which resulted in Mr. HOrnby withdrawing his opposition.—The name of Mr. Nicholson was substituted for that of Mr. Jeffreys, and witty this exception, the names proposed by Mr. Turner were assented to. IMPROVEMENT COMMITTEE• Mr. BENNETT proposed the following names to com prise the Improvement Committee :—Messrs: Robinson, Avis Gavdner, Langsdale, Fisher, Bennett, S. Holme, J. B. Lloyd, Mellor, Johnson, and T. Lloyd. On Mr. Mellor's name being proposed, Mk. LANGSDASE objected. He would not trust Mr. Mellor with anything connected with the town of Liver pool. Mr. S. HOLME said such observations were not only derogatory to the Council, but insulting to the constitu ency which had returned Mr. Mellor. The gentlemen named were all appointed LAW COURTS.

DOVER observed that when they found the choir of one church in Liverpool to cost £2,13 per annum, it was.time that some financial, reformer should be- placed on the Church Expenditure Committee. He would beg to propose that the name of Mr. Bigham be added to the committee. Mr. FERGUSON had no. objection to Mr. Bighorn's name being added to the committee.
