J. __vain, F. A. Jones, Thos. Fleming, Hugh Neil!, Arthur Henderson, R. A. Payne, Calshaw, 'Zimmer, Gregory, King Ellison, J. B. Cooper, &c. Mr. Alderman Wood having been called to the chair, Mr. TOBIN, in an eloquent speech, moved a resolution calling upon the electors to give their hearty support to the two gentlemen who had been fixed upon to represent the Conservative interest in this town. The battle which they had to fight was not, he contended, one of an ordinary kind. It was not the battle of free trade, or of any sectarian character, but the more comprehensive one, whether the Govern ment of the country was to be carried on by a constitu tional party, or to be handed over to men who were pre pared to rush into all the excesses of unmitigated demo. cracy.—Mr. R. A. PAYNE seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously.—Mr. FLEMING moved the second resolution, which was to the effect, that in the present crisis of public affairs it is important that the electors should give their fullest support to the adminis tration of the Earl of Derby.—The resolution was se conded by Mr. CULSHAW, and carried unanimously.— Mr. Was. CAOW, of 88, Wood-street, here stepped for ward, as he stated, unprepared to address the meeting; yet a more effective speech has seldom been delivered by ':d orator. Some of his hits against the were extremely happy ; and his description of John Russell's ministry, as having been destroyed by spontaneous combustion, convulsed the meeting with laughter.—After some interesting remarks by Mr. H. NEILL, and a vote of thanks being passed to the Chair man, the proceedings terminated. The best possible Ipirit prevailed throughout ; and we are happy to hear hat the canvass in this ward is proceeding most favorably. Roscoe-Er attended.

Bold, Mr. Rigby, Mr. Rimmer, Mr. Challis, Mr. Gardner, Mr. Lee, Captain Gowing, Mr. Priest, &c. After a brief address from the Chairman, in the course of which he made the important assertion that " every nier without exception, who had anything to do Lne import of goods or shipping, had found his ca pital diminished, and all his operations carried en with loss."—Mr. JOHN RIMIER moved a resolution condemna tory of the policy of the late administration, as having produced depression in trade and in shipping, and ex pressing confidence in the administration of the Earl of Derby.—The resolution having been seconded and passed, BOLD was called upon to explain the views of 'e, in whose abilities and character he As chairman, last year, upon the own sat upon the Liverpool Dock Bill, he ,ed tact and aptitute for business which had won ior him the respect of all parties.

Mr. JOHN RIGBY, Chairman of the 'Ward Conservative Association, moved a resolution approving of Messrs. Mackenzie end Charles Turner us candidates.—Mr. CHAS. CHALLIS seconded the re/solution, and stated that in going round to canvass be had got firms to sign the requisition who had never before voted for Tory candi. dates ; and several had offered subscriptions to aid in the expenses of the election.—Mr. JEFYRRYS confirmed the remarks of Mr. BOLD as to the impression made upon him and others by Mr. Mackenzie's conduct as chairman of the committee on the Dock Bill ; and read an interest ing communication received from Mr. Samuel Holme, logizing for his inability to attend the meeting Arthur Henderson and several other gen,' quantly addressed the electors present.

Plants will, how ever, begin to push rapidly as soon as they have had full supply of rain, consequently all removals - tions should be brought to a close as speedily as.

A TROUBLESOME I ♦V um.- Martin, 1 the wife of a respectable dealer in St. J ames ' s M ar k e t, was brought up on a charge of threatening the lives of bar husband and family, and breaking all thelvindows in the rere of their house in St. James's-place, on Thursday I night weeks eP fault o di, for a return to her husban offered to take her back if she would re- ad, about five ,peared that the nt to gaol for twenty-one days, in de similar offence, arid that she did not vs house until Wednesday last -;n, and make her comfc m her conduct and give up drunkenness. This she refused to do, and made use of language to the effect that she would " do" for him and his family. She remained in her husband's house on Wednesday and Thursday, but was in a continuous state of intoxication ; and on Friday she arrived home in such as beastly state that he refused to admit her, but offered to pay for her lodging elsewhere. Instead of acceding to this, she attracted a crowd about the door, broke the windows, and was given into custody. Mr. Mansfield was of opinion that it would be useless to ask her to find bail for her future good conduct, as she could not get it, and to send her to gaol in default would only exasperate her the more, and cause her to commit greater depredation, when her period of imprisonment expired. As Mr. Martin had offered to allow her Ss. a week, he would remand Mrs. M. until the follewing day, with the hope that some of her friends would enter into an arrangement satisfactory to both parties. SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A LETTER CARRIER.—A serious charge of extracting money from a letter was heard before the magistrates in their private room, OR Thursday. The delinquent was a young man, named John Morgan, who has been employed as a letter carrier in the Liverpool Post-office; and the charge was of having stolen a £lO and two £5 notes from a letter addressed by Mr. A. A. Steele, of Bolton, to Messrs. Startin and Fry, of Sweeting-street. One of the notes, of which the num ber was known, and which had been stopped at the Bank of England, bad been traced by Inspectors Bates and Ph trick to the hands of the prisoner, by whom it had been paid about six weeks ago to a horsedealer at the Great Homer-street Fair. The prisoner was remanded for seven days, and it is expected that several other cases will be discovered against him On Tuesday, „ young gentlemen, who gave their names as Flavius Joseph Hudson and Arthur Joseph Hill, were fined 10s. each for wrenching off the knockers of doors in Bute-street and Everton-crescent. ASSAULT.—On Tuesday, Benjamin Cottrell, plasterer, Seacombe. was charged by his stepfather, James Horgon, beerhouse-keeper, Shaw's-brow, with an assault. It ap peared from the examination that there had been a dispute between the parties about money matters, a sum of £5OO having been sold out of the Three per Cent. Consols, by the complainant, which was alleged to be the property of defendant's wife. He had called for the purpose of having a settlement, and, being intoxicated at the time, an assault had ensued. The .defendant was .tined 103. and costs. ASSAULT AND ROBBERY ON BOARD A VESSEL.—At the Police-court on Tuesday, five sailors, named John Devlin, Robert Pwing, Daniel O'Neale, John Ewing, and John Brondy, were brought up. They were employed on board the American ship Parliament, which had received an accession of five more to her number, previous to leav ing the port the evening before. From the new sailors the old ones sought to obtain drink, which being refused, a scuffle ensued. The prisoners proceeded to 0--. e fore castle, and stole the clothes of the complainants, which were afterwards found in as empty berth. This latter offence was not, however, pressed, and for the assault the prisoners were respectively tried. Devlin was sentenced to pay £5, or be imprisoned two months ; Ewing and Broady, 405., or be imprisoned one month each ; Pwing, 20a., or to be imprisoned fourteen days. O'Neale was discharged. A RUMPUS ABOUT A BONNET.—On Tuesday a French woman, of stylish exterior, whose style and title trans pired as being ” Madame Amy Rnserberg," preferred a charge against a widow named Thompson, and a married woman, of having taken from her residence, in the pure locality of Hotham-street, a bonnet, valued at £1 15s. Madame Amy, it appeared, requires being occasionally reminded of her indebtedness, and one of the prisoners had called upon her for this purpose on the evening of Monday last ; and after she had left, the bonnet was missed, and had not since been seen. There had been a row on the occasion of this visit, and some smashing of windows by the French lady's kind neighbours. After hearing the pros end cons of the affair, the magistrate (Mr. Benn) dismissed the case, considering the parties about equally respeetable.—On Thursday, the same " Madame Amy " summoned another female, named Miss Smith, for having caused the breaking of her win dows above referred to. It transpired, however, that Miss Smith, having called on the Monday night when the breakage occurred for a little account owing by one Madame's lodgers, was assaulted, severely beaten, and • out of doors into the street. For this assault and Jolting, the French lady was ordered to pay 20s. and losts ; and Miss Smith, as having been not quite guilt of the window-breaking, to pay the damage, 103. YESTERDAY.
