TO CORRESPONDENTS. We have received from a correspondent. " Oxoniensis," a note pointing our attention, and that of the authori ties, to the exposure of indecent prints and books of an immoral tendency in a shop-window in Manchester street. In a recent article, referring to some proceedings of the visitors of the workhouse, Messrs. Urquhart and Mo lyneux, we committed an error which, as we understand it has pained the latter gentleman, we hasten to correct and explain. We alluded to these two gentlemen, erro neously with respect to the latter, as dissenters. THE EXHIBITION AT THE COLLEGIATE INSTITUTION.— "J. D.," who, in a note, expresses his anxious desire for the prosperity of the institution, says :—* * * " I regret extremely to find that the directors, from, perhaps, a well meaning, but certainly mistaken motive, have fixed the price of admission at one shilling for all classes (excepting children), and for all times of the day ; and have, in my opinion, prematurely announced that no alteration will take place, so that decent artisans and working men and their families, who can ill spare that sum, and who can, moreover, spare only a short time in an evening to hurry through the rooms, are virtually excluded. I have myself many men and youths in my employment (and no doubt there are many others in large and small establishments throughout the town, who entertain the same laudable desire), who are anxious to see the exhibition, for the purpose of in formation as well as amusement, but who are thus precluded from visiting it. They think the admission during the day reasonable, and even moderate, from what they have heard of the great extent and excellence of the collection, for parties who move in the higher circles, and have abundance of leisure on their hands; but they complain that, as their time would not permit them to view the whole, even cursorily, in one visit, in order to obtain a satisfactory inspection, they would have to go again and again ; so that, as individuals of humble means, the charge would be much greater for them than for the rich, for the same gratification. Surely it was never the intention of the founders of the institution, or of the projectors of, or the contributors to, the exhibition that such a system of partiality, and of exclusion of the industrial classes should be adopted. I may add, that I feel convinced that the working classes of Liverpool, if admitted at a lower price after four or five o'clock in the afternoon (as at the Mechanics' institution), would conduct themselves in quite as orderly a manner, and refrain from wanton damage to the articles on view, as even the younger branches of wealthy families,—some of whom, I am informed, have already shown a disposition to do mischief. On con sidering the subject in the light in which I have put it, the committee will, I trust, see that they overlooked the circumstances under which the industrial, and even many of the middle orders, are placed, and be induced to make the requisite alteration, which I do not think would amount to any breach of faith ;—the announce ment they have put forth having been made at a time when the facts stated were accidently overlooked." [We quite concur in the opinion of our considerate correspondent, and think his suggestion worthy of the serious consideration of the committee, with a view to some alteration, every day, or on the afternoons and evenings of certain days of the week, that may conduce to the greater popularity of the exhibition, and, con sequently, to the advancement of the funds o f th e institution; the prosperity of which, we believe, the mass of our townsmen, rich and poor, have warmly at heart.—En. STAND.] Erie 71.therpool BttanDan. TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 4, 1843. Another of those rebel gatherings—those displays of physical force—by which the agitator of Ireland trusts to win, from the fears of England, the conces sions which he demands—would be held yesterday in Dublin. Of the proceedings, of course, we can know nothing as vet. The thousands of ignorant beings there assembled, after listening for five or six hours to the revolutionary appeals of their great apos tle—after having been wrought up to desperation by vividly drawn pictures of their wrongs, and stimu- lated to a fiercer hatred of the English nation—' SAXON"—by the violent and lying denunciations o that demagogue priesthood, whose avocation seems to be to point out to their duped flocks the path of outrage and bloodshed, rather than the path of peace, may, possibly, have returned to their homes without precipitating the crises which every man feels is approaching. No sword may, as yet, have been drawn ;no life may have fallen a sacrifice. An overruling providence may have prevented a col lision between these maddened and inflamed crowds, and their victims ; but it is morally and physically impossible that, in the absence of po sitive information, we can, at any time, now, con gratulate ourselves upon the assurance, that Ireland is not, from north to south, one wide scene of massacre and outrage ! A day may bring it ; the occurrence of an hour may tear from before her fate the veil, under which Great Britain is sleeping, un conscious of the storm which is gathering, or per haps is fully gathered and ready, to descend in ruin upon her head ! When, we ask, will that weak and timorous policy be laid aside which hesitates to put down, at once, an agitation so fiercely menacing —an agitation whose issue is so clearly to be foreseen ? When will the British nation be permitted to know the fact that their sovereign and the law are more powerful in Ireland than a ruffian demagogue or his priestly auxi. liaries ? We are waiting—for what ? We are wait. ing until rebellion gains strength and daring suffici. ent to strike the first blow ; —for we cannot be so mad as to imagine that, whatever may have been his past course, with minor crotchets, its leader can ever be induced to lay aside the agitation of repeal ; he cannot if he would ! He is chained to it. Like the German student, he is hunted by the monster of his own creation. He must go on with it, though it lead to the scaffold or the gallows,—though he knows it to lead to the desolation of that land which he professes to love so well! To an issue— a trial of strength between the powers of the law and the passions of the people of Ireland—it muse come at last; and we are waiting,—blindly, timidly, madly waiting—until the time approaches, or is precipitated upon us, when the power of the con stitution and the law can only be vindicated by the sword or the bayonet. This is, unquestionably, the position and the po licy of the conservative government of this country in the present imminent crisis of affairs in Ireland. We might have crushed this agitation in the egg. We might crush it, at more hazard and with greater difficulty, even now. But we are hanging back until our opponent shall he full grown, fully armed, and, perhaps, aided by confederates in the struggle ! We are hesitating to put forth our energies, until a period arrive when their exertion must be destructive and fatal to Ireland, and at the same time weakening in effect, and full of peril and disaster, to Great Britain herself ! We may be told that the first step made to put down the repeal agitation will be the signal for the commencement of a fierce and bloody insurrection in that unhappy land. So threatens the arch traitor, Daniel O'Connell. So howl, in echo, the priesthood of Ireland. So proclaim the sympathizers of the American continent and of France. But do they offer us an alternative less dangerous, short of con cession to the most violent and insolent of their de mands ? Glance, for a moment, at the language in which they paint the future position of Great Britain and Ireland. Take, as a specimen of their feeling. the following which fell from the lips of a priest, the Rev. Mr. Murray, at a recent repeal gathering in the county of Cork : " Suppose England to-morrow at war with France or Russia, a circumstance not perhaps so unlikely or remote as may appear to some (hear, hear), and that their grand differences were to be decided on the banks of the Rhine or the Danube, would they not rejoice at the blindness which should retain one of the armies of England at so great a distance from the theatre of war, and would not the disaffection of Ireland be to them a subsidy of 6,000 men ? It is not wisdom, then, on the part of England not to reconcile Ireland, her right arm, and her most faithful and powerful illy. It would be better to be wise in time —concessions'alay come too late." They would betray us in our extremity. They would deliver us up, bound and shorn of our strength and union, into the hands of the first foreign power, which might be willing, in return, to aid the esta blishment of a popish supremacy in their own land. They are husbanding their strength until England is weak ; until her armies are occupied on a foreign shore, her navy in a distant sea, when the yell of onset would be given, the beacon fires be lighted from hill to hill, and myriads of drilled and organized rebels rush at once to the work of destruction and massa cre, for which the spirit of popery in Ireland longs with the wild longing of a wolf for blood ! and we are to wait until this crisis has arrived ! We trust not. We trust that such fatal blindness—such utter madness—will not be persisted in by the government of Sir Robert Peel ! We ask of that government to cast their glance upon the position of the protestants of Ireland at the present moment. Let them look within the solitary hovel or the low farm-house, at nightfall, where some poor protestant family lies down, in ignorance whe ther their waking will be amidst conflagration and out rage. Let them look, even, at the better protected, because more populated towns of Ireland, where protestants are compelled to band thamselves for se curity against the malignant hostility by which they are surrounded on every side- Let them ask, what must be the feelings of these men, of their wives, of their daughters, when, from some neighbouring hill or plain, they hear the howl of five hundred thousand voices proclaiming,—swearing, —eternal hostility to their race and their faith, and remember with what bloody zeal that hostility has been wreaked upon their fathers in times of old ! Does the government of England—a conservative government too—owe no protection to these men—no gratitude for past deeds and old and well-tried loyalty ? Are these men to be left trembling, beneath their present feel ing of insecurity, because a traitor bullies us or a coward entreats forbearance ? Such should not be; such must not be, unless we are prepared to submit tamely to the utmost and the worst which rebellion, armed or unarmed, can accomplish ! If it is, indeed, the resolve of the prescnt cabinet to maintain the integrity of the empire, the integrity of our national church, and the lives and liberties of our protestant brethren in Ireland, the effort must be made firmly, and at once ! We cannot bring our selves to contemplate, as probable, those fearful re sults of such an effort, with which we are threatened. We believe on the contrary, that a resolved position on the part of government—a prompt step in the right direction—is all that is wanted to disarm the insolent ruffian who is now betraying, and beggaring the suffering and excitable population of his country. Declare the agitation for the repeal of the union, TREASON ! Declare those vast gatherings,—by which loyal and peaceable men are awed into subjec tion to the dictation of midnight plunderers and as sassins—to constitute armed rebellion ! Make the collection of rent for a treasonable purpose illegal ! Put down the seditious assemblages, of repeal war dens and other similar fuctionaries, held weekly at the corn-exchange. Above all, let the government rally to its side the tried friends of protestantism and loyalty to the British throne, in Ireland ; and they may laugh at O'Connell's threats, at the blustering of his priesthood, or at the ribald menaces and insults of the enemies of the integrity of the empire, whether they are to be found in the mass-houses of Ireland, or amongst the bankrupt ruffians, who squirt tobacco juice and bluster bobadilism in the taverns of New York or Baltimore ! We have always maintained that the agitation, by which the effort of government to procure scrip tural education for the children of our factory popu lation has been defeated, was not so much based upon sectarian grounds —was not so much a reli gious movement—as it was a movement of " libe ralism" amongst the manufacturing body. The measure of Sir James Graham enfranchised the suffering factory child. It took him from his long and dreary toil, at the loom or the spinning frame ; and sought to raise him from the moral darkness attendant upon his enforced position. And it was opposed, with all the organised and concentrated virulence which dissent can bring into antagonism to any measure against which its services are retained, not so much because its provisions were offensive to voluntaryism in religion and education, as because it crippled the power of the manufac turing capitalist to overtask his human machinery— because it added a farthing or a penny to the cost of a piece of his calico or a pound of his yarn ! Confirmation of this fact was scarcely necessary, in this part of the empire. However great may have been the amount of delusion, spread from dis senting pulpits and platforms, elsewhere, here, at least, the real animus of the agitation was perfectly well known. We have, however, that confirmation before us, in the report of a meeting of dissenting ministers and others, held in Manchester on Wednesday last, with the avowed object of defeat ing, not the educational clauses of the Factory Bill, but the emasculated Bill itself—stript as it is of all that can by any possibility excite religious, or quasi-religious, animosity. It is not now the edu cational clauses which are attacked, as injurious to dissenting interests, or oppressive to dissenting consciences, but the regulation of the hours of labour of infant children in factories, and the prin ciple laid down, that such children shall be edu cated ! We shall give a few specimens of the sayings of these reverends at the meeting in question ; and first we notice the following passage from the speech of the reverend Mr. Massie. This worthy firebrand, after giving a garbled and grossly unfair, nay false, edition of the 33d clause of the amended bill, which defines the'powers given to inspectors to enable them to ascertain that education is given to the children employed in factories, proceeded to argue that such clause " Brought to bear all the arbitrary principles of Prussian despotism, and all the violent intrusion of in justice, caprice, and arbitrary government, not upon our factories merely, but upon the schools where our children were to be educated, and who were to be taught as slaves to crouch before the lash, or to bear the yoke in their youth to despotism. He held that this clause in the present bill was as objectionable as any thing that ap peared in the previous editions of it. But Sir James Graham had placed in this bill, after telling you that he had withdrawn the educational clauses, 12 clauses upon the education of factory children ; the first of which re quires that no child shall be employed in a factory without a certificate of attending a school. He then proceeded to direct, that, if a school did not please an inspector, the inspector reporting upon it, that schoolmaster should not be able to give a certificate; and if any child should be employed in a school not having such a certificate, he or his parents should be subject to penalty, the child for not attending, or his parents for not sending him,—the penalty being ss. and from that to a pound; while the master of the mill should be subject to a penalty of from £5 to £lO for such employment of the child. There was something like despotism in requiring school attendance from chil dren, while the bill intended to provide schools; but here they don't provide schools, and yet require attendance, and the certificate may be withdrawn at the caprice of the inspector, and the child working at a milli after ,that is subject to a penalty, and the master also for employing him. If this bill were not a conspiracy against the liberty of manufacturers, a combination of oppressors against the feelings, wishes, and enterprise of the people, he (Mr. Massie) knew neither what a conspiracy was, nor what a combination of oppressors could be." Now what is the meaning of this furious raving, if it be not hostility to education, as a condition of the employment of children in factories ? It is not hos tility to this bill, for any particular defect or fault in it capable of being remedied, but a deliberate desire to sacrifice the minds and the morals of the rising ge neration of Englishmen upon the shrine of manufac turing cupidity ! his " despotism" to compel chil dren to attend school—despotism to place the Bible in their hands—despotism to teach them that they have souls to be saved, minds to be cultivated, pas sions to be subdued ; and interference by the legis lature to regulate their condition, at all, is " a con spiracy against the liberty of manufacturers!" Liber ty—what to do ? We need not suggest the answer. But another speaker, the Rev. W. 111`lierrow, was still more explicit with respect to the motives of hos tility to factory legislation. This gentleman, at least, has in him more of the spirit of a leaguer than of a christian minister. We give here a portion of his delirious trash : " Would any man of sense expect any sound, liberal, or beneficial mode of education from those now at the head of public affairs? What did they care for the physical, intellectual, moral, and religious improvement of the peo ple, the men who kept up the sugar monopoly and the corn monopoly,—(applause)—who extracted from the poor bard-working classes ten times the amount by their prin ciples of unjust legislation that would enable them to edu cate their own children?—(Applause.) Yet these men, forsooth, were weeping and lamenting over the ignorance and degradation of the millions ! Out upon such cant and hypocrisy !—(Applause.) They had obstructed the chan nels of commerce, paralyzed trade, raised the price of bread, and yet they professed to be exceedingly desirous to ameliorate the condition of the poor. They had degra ded and pauperised the people, and yet they were so gene rous as to offer to provide for them a particular kind of religious instruction ; they were so kind as to furnish them with workhouses and prisons, and with schools where the attention of the children might be directed to any other world than the the present.—(Hear.)" Surely, there can be no doubt, after this, with re spect to the influences which drive such men as this M`Kerrow and his coadjutors. to agitation in oppo sition of government schemes of education ! Humi liating, indeed, is the position, of professing mini sters of the gospel, who can thus lend themselves, if not sell themselves, to the advocacy of any cause, however unrighteous and dishonest, by which they can win mob applause or the favour of selfish pa trons ! This is the working of "the voluntary prin ciple !" It has been objected to us, by some of our readers and friends, that, in the course which we have pursued, with respect to the movement of the various mercantile associations to procure the repeal of those clauses of the dock act which restrict the power of the trustees to erect warehouses on the dock quays, we have been acting injuriously to the interests of the commerce of the port. But what has, in reality, been our position ? Not, certainly, one of hostility to any well-considered plan for pro moting the security of that commerce. Not, cer tainly, one intended to retard the adoption of any well-considered steps of precaution or regulation, by which the safety from fire, and the cheap and secure stowage, of produce warehoused in our port can be effected. We have placed ourselves in antagonism only against the headlong resort to measures, which we conscientiously believe to be prejudicial to the ob jects which the mercantile associations have in view. We have said, and we repeat it now, that in the ex tension of the powers of the dock trustees, and the headlong prosecution of what is at present only an experiment, of very doubtful success, is not the remedy, most proper to be applied to the evil which, as deeply as the mercantile bodies, we deplore. The argument of the parties, who object to the course which we have taken, resolves itself into this. The establishment of warehouses on the dock quays, to be managed by the dock trustees, will operate as a spur upon warehouse owners and warehouse keepers to adopt, in self-defence, the very best system of warehouse regulation. It is taken for granted, here, that with warehouse keepers rest all the faults of the present system; but is this so ? Again, it is taken for granted that dock warehouse management will be perfect; but that remains to he proved. The evils of the present system of stowage and regulation of the warehouses of the town are not to be attributed exclusively to warehouse owners. The porterage in those warehouses is not, in the majority of cases, conducted by them ; but by the brokers and the owners of the produce warehoused. The irregulari ties which are constantly occurring are attributable, in a great measure, to the fact that warehouse keepers are actually not allowed to perform the duties which are obviously a part of their business! That such is the case is not our supposition only, but that of other parties as well, is evidenced by the fact that, where warehouse keepers conduct their own porterage, the insurance offices are willing to insure at very materially reduced rates! Again, we are told, or it is to be taken for granted, that the warehouses erecting upon our dock quays are, from their position and construction, to possess an immunity from calamity by fire, which does not belong to similar erections in other localities. We have said, on the contrary, that the principle, upon which those warehouses are being erected, is so radically bad, that the produce warehoused in them will not be insured except at extravagantly high rates of premium ; and we are at length borne out in our assertions, by the admission of the chairman of those mercantile associations, whose views we have been warned to regard as those of absolute wisdom. Upon this point we take leave to quote the following remarks of Mr. Wm. Brown, delivered at a meeting of the commercial associations on Monday the 26th ult. :-- Mr. Brown stated that "he that morning met a gentle man belonging to one of the offices, who told him that six of the principal offices in London had declined altogether to insure goods in the St. Katherine's warehouses, except to the extent of £lOOO each, and this on condition that the goods were placed in their vaults. As to two other offices, he could not speak officially ; but, if the merchants here wished for private information, he had no doubt that they might obtain it by writing up to London. He (the Chairman) thought it was very desirable to consider the way in which warehouses were about to be erected in this town, inasmuch as, after the receipt of the information which he had communicated, this subject became very important. By the Act of Parliament, the Dock Com mittee were empowered to erect warehouses round the Albert Dock, and, unfortunately, on the verge of the quay, where, it was said, they would not be insured. He fear ed that, as considerable expense had already been incurred in sinking the foundations, it might now be too late for the committee to make any alteration in the site, so as to throw the warehouses farther back. This, however, was the case with only about two-thirds, and it was for the meeting to consider Whether it was necessary for them to address any communication on the subject to the Dock Committee." These are precisely the views which we have ad vanced with respect to the warehouses in question, and which have been met with denial the most positive from the advocates of the dominant body in the dock management ; and we need not say how flattering to us is their confirmation by such an authority as Mr. Brown. Our impression has been that, in their anxiety to advance the favourite project of dock warehouses, the commercial associations have rushed to the adoption of most hasty and ill-considered resolu tions. For example, at a recent meeting it was resolved to press the erection of a pile of ware houses, on the land at the west side of the Prince's Dock, at present occupied by the transit sheds. Let us see how decisively this plan is now scouted as impracticable by their chairman. At the meeting above referred to, Mr. Brown remarked that " He went that morning to look at the sheds at the Prince's Dock, and be must confess that he was astonished at the position in which they were placed. The sheds had a continuous roof from one end to the other, not fire proof ; and they were at such a short distance from the dock, and were of such a height, that if one of them took fire, it would be out of any human power to save the ship ping from fire. If they were built higher, the flames might ascend ; but even then the rigging of the vessels would be likely to be ignited, and the danger not at all lessened." With respect to the same project, another speaker, Mr. T. S. Gladstone, remarked that " In the resolution which was passed at their previous meeting, was not the opinion expressed, that the transit sheds should be concerted into fire-proof warehouses ?" Mr. TODD—Decidedly. The CHAIRMAN said that that resolution placed then THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD in a very awkward position. He had it from the same authority to which he had previously referred, that if there were introduced into the Fire Bill any clause to prevent the passing of the bill, the insurance offices would not in sure property at all, and it therefore behoved the meeting, in trying to get that bill, not to upset any arrangement with the warehouse proprietors. A very awkward position, indeed, for gentlemen to have one day to record the impracticability of a scheme which, on the preceding day, they have paraded as the extremity of wisdom ! From such a position we, at least, have guarded ourselves. It is contended, however, in extenuation, by a gentleman—Mr. Todd—who appears to have pushed himself into a prominence upon this question, for which he is apparently very unfit, that " when the meeting passed that resolution, they did not pledge themselves to any particular construction of ware house. They did not assert that the warehouses were to be on the edge of the docks, but merely that they were to be on the dock quays. Although the foundation of the warehouses on the Albert Dock had been laid, surely they were open to an amended mode of building, if that were found to be necessary or desirable." Of course, Mr. Todd and his friends did not pledge themselves to any parti cular construction of warehouses ; but they did what was equally as bad, or even worse. They took for granted the infallibility of dock management ! This assumption runs through their entire proceedings. Dock warehouses managed by the very gentlemen who are now erecting warehouses so objectionable in conetruction, are assumed to be the only resource within our reach. All the intellect—all the virtue— all the excellence of arrangement and regulation of which our warehousing business is capable, is assumed to belong exclusively to the warehouse party who rule the sayings and doings of the Dock Committee ! But Mr. Todd is somewhat hasty in assuming that it is so very easy now to resort to that " amended mode of building" the Albert warehouses which would do away with the objections urged by the In surance companies or the mercantile body. The foundations of these warehouses, with their expen sive piling, &c., are already completed ; and to throw them back to anything like such a distance as would ensure safety to the shipping in the docks, would leave, we fear, such mere shells, and expensive shells too, as would be well nigh useless to the commerce of the port. We are quite willing, however, to go with Mr. Todd and the mercantile body at large for such' alterations ss may render these costly play things of Mr. Alderman Evans and his coadjutors capable of being worked with profit to the dock estate and the town. We have been directing atten tion to this very subject, whilst the merchants of the port have been sleeping at their posts ; and if they will now come forward and examine it in all its bear ings and details, they will perhaps be lees anxious to throw additional power into the hands of parties who have shown such little aptitude in the task of direct ing those which they already possess for the public good. We have given in another column a brief report of a meeting of the Commercial Association, held on Saturday last, at which a memorial to the Mayor was agreed upon, requesting him to convene a pub lic meeting for the purpose of petitioning Parliament for the insertion, in the proposed Fire Prevention Bill, of a clause releasing the Dock Commufee from the restrictions imposed upon them in the last dock act with respect to the power of erecting additional warehouses upon the dock quays. We are enabled to announce, upon authority on which we place every confidence, that his worship has declined to comply with the prayer of the memorialists. In the pro. priety of this step we quite agree. Ihe provision, so obnoxious to the gentlemen who, for the past week or two, have been agitating this question, was one of compromise, deliberately adopted by the Council and sanctioned by the Legislature. It was a compact, not entered into with the warehouse owners alone, but with with the people of Liverpool, who felt as strongly upon the subject of dock ware houses as the body in question. As such, it ought not to be disturbed, for the allaying of a merely temporary outcry, except upon much stronger grounds than any which we have ever heard urged in behalf such a course. LOCAL N.Rlirs. THE ECCLESIASTICAL COMMISSION.—The ecclesias tical commissioners, out of the funds at their disposal, have made grants to the churches of St. Matthias and St. Stephen, in this town, so as to raise the income of each of those benefices to £l5O per annum. TESTIMONIAL TO THE CLERGYMAN OF WEST DERBY. —Last week the congregation of West Derby Chapel pre sented their minister, the Rev. William Moriarty, with a purse containing £6O, in testimony of their very kind feelings towards that gentleman. The rev. gentleman has laboured, ever since his appointment to his official duties, with the most exemplary zeal and perseverance. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT. —The Commissioner (W. J. Law, Esq.) will commence the autumn sittings for the Northern Circuit at Sheffield, on the 20th day of October ; and will sit at Lancaster on Friday, Nov. 17th ; at Preston, on Saturday, Nov. 25th ; at Liverpool, on Tuesday, Nov. 28th ; and Chester, ou Friday, Dec. Ist. THE TRANSIT SHEDS.—It is not generally known that the transit sheds at the Prince's Dock may be used for any length of time, without any charge, if the goods have not passed the landing-waiter. Further, such goods may be landed without even any entry. This should be made known generally, as there appears in certain quarters a desire to render these sheds as little useful as possible. TESTIMONIAL OF RESPECT TO A CLERGYMAN. —The teachers of St. Bartholomew's Boys' Sunday School, in Naylor-street, presented last week to the Rev. George Dover, A.M., minister of St. Bartholomew's Church, a very elegant and chaste clasped Bible and Prayer Book, as a token of affection for him as their worthy pastor, and for his truly valuable assistance in promoting the prosperity of the above school. CUSTOMS REVENUE. —We are extremely gratified to find that the receipts at the Custom-house for the last month are even more favourable than those of the pre ceding. We believe they exceed by £37,000 those of the corresponding month in last year ; and, if we are not mis informed, the receipts for the three months, ending the 30th ult., will be found greater than those of the second quarter in .1842 ;by abuut £lOO,OOO. This speaks well, amidst so much commercial gloom, for the increasing prosperity of the port. AMAZINGLY TALL WHEAT. -- We had, yesterday, brought to our office, two stalks of wheat, grown on the farm of Mr. Tyrer, at Gateacre, one of which measured five feet eleven inches in length, and the other six feet one, exclusively of the beard at the top ! It is still in a green state, so that if showers prevail, the wheat in the same field, much of which is of the same height, may be expected to reach the gigantic stature of from six and-a_ half to seven feet. The ear is about four inches in length, but is scarcely yet in the bloom. Although this great length of straw is not generally indicative of great size or weight of grain, the fact is interesting as showing the fa vourable state of the season for the growth of this plant of the " golden crop." COUNCIL MEETING. —The usual monthly meeting of the Council will be held to-morrow. The proceedings of the Finance Committee, which will be submitted to the Council for approval, comprise " the sale of advowson of the Cemetery, subject to the approval of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners. Plan for laying out for sale the land on the east side of Great Howard -street, for the erection of fireproof warehouses. Proposal for the sale of parts of the Cheshire estate, both in Birkenhead and Wallasey Pool, on leases not exceeding 75 years. Proposed ap pointment of a dock master and three assistants at River Craft Dock. Gratuity to Mrs. Fresh, at the Alms houses. The recommendation of the increase of the salary of Mr. Fox from £l5O to £2OO, the consideration of which was postponed at the last monthly council." There does not appear any other business of importance on the summons paper. GRATIFYING TESTIMONIAL.--W E have seen in the shop window of Mr. Richard Doke, Lord-street, a very massive and substantially -made silver salver, of large dimensions, richly engraved in centre and enchased edges. Also, a melon-shaped coffee-pot, of large size and very heavy. The manufacture in every , way does Mr. Doke the greatest credit. Th6f are to be shortly presented to the Rev. Robert Davies, of this town ; and the following inscription on each of the pieces sufficiently conveys the reason for their presentation. This salver and other tokens of •respect were presented to the Rev. Robert Davies, M.A., ministe r o f S t. Paul ' s, Liverpool, and formerly incumbent of St. David's Church, by the mem bers of his late congregation, in testimony of their esteem for his pastoral services for a period of sixteen years, and as a memorial of their regret at his departure from among them. DEATH FROM BouNiivo.—On Saturday last an in quest was held before Mr. Curry, on view of the body of Elizabeth Usherwood, aged 14. Deceased resided in Drinkwater's-gardens, Richmond-row. On the 27th of May she fell asleep by the fire, when her dress ignited, and she was much burned. She was sent a few days af terwards to the infirmary, where she died on Friday last, from the injuries.—Verdict, " Accidental death." GIG ACCIDENT.—On Friday night, as Mr. Archibald Sinclair, of Hill-side House, Wavertree, was going home from the town in his gig, the splinter-bar broke and the horse took fright, and becoming unmanageable run over a child on the road—who was not, however, much hurt — and then threw Mr. S. out, against some rails, by which he was severely injured. He was wounded in the side by a spike, which took a slanting direction, otherwise the consequence might have been fatal. We find on enquiry that Mr. S„ though he is confined and suffers consider ably;is considered in a fair way of recovery. DEATH BY SUFFOCATION FROM GAS.—Yesterday, an inquest was held on view of the body of Thomas Marsden.—James Hughes said he worked at Mr. Threl fall's Brewery, in Crosbie-street. The deceased also worked there. On Saturday afternoon last, at 4 o'clock, deceased went to clean one of the vats in the brewery. Soon after six:o'clock, witness went to look in the vat, as he usually did in passing, and found deceased lying on his face in some water, about seven inches deep, that had been turned in to clean it. An alarm was given, and deceased was immediately taken out, but was quite dead. The deceased was naked at the time, and in witness's opinion had slipped, owing to the harm at the bottom of the vat, and that, by the strength of the mixture his breath was taken away, and he had not power to get up again. —Verdict,—Died from apoplexy, occasioned accor dinc'ly. FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF MODERN JUDAISM INVESTIGATED.—We observe a new work, a highly inter esting one, under this title, is announced to be in the press, by Mr. M. Margoliereth, of Trinity College, Dublin, to be dedicated, by permission, to the Rev. Alexander M'Caul, D.D., T.C.D., Principal of the Hebrew College, and Professor of Hebrew and Rabbinical Literature, King's College, London, with a preface from the pen of the Rev. H. Raikes, Chancellor of the Diocese of Chester. The object of the writer is to show that modern Judaism is not b t s o c r p i o b p e i r s s h a Christianity. considerable W nbe observe f tamongst the o s t the religion of Moses a n d th e prop h ets, b ut that it bears a r c th lo e se lis a t ffi o n f i s t u y learned bishops and clergy ; and from the present critical position of the Jews, from whom the writer of the work some time since seceded, the volume will no doubt re ceive, as it deserves, an extensive sale. SUICIDE OF A CAPTAIN.—An inquest was held yester day before Mr. Statham, deputy coroner, on view of the body of John Westcott. Robert Stiffins, a shipwright, residing in Pleasant Hill-street, said he knew the de ceased who lived next door to him. He was a master mariner, and was 44 years old. On Saturday last witness heard a loud knock at the door, and on going down he saw the deceased's wife. She called for assistance, and witness went to deceased's house, and on going up stairs saw him hanging by a cord, fastened to the top of one of the bedsteads. Another man came in and deceased was cut down. He was quite dead. A surgeon was called, but could render no assistance. in December last de ceased, who was a sober man, lost a vessel, and ever since he had been out of a situation, which appeared to prey upon his mind a good deal, as he seemed to be very low in spirits, and not looking so well as usual. A verdict of insanity was returned. „ r.NLARGEMENT OF Sr. MARY'S CHURCH, KIRKDALE. —This church was opened in the year 1836, and was in tended to accommodate 1,000 persons ; but the popula tion of the neighbourhood has increased so rapidly, that for the last two years applications for seats have exceeded the means of accommodation. Urged by the necessity of the case, the minister and gentlemen of the congregation have lately held several meetings to consider the best means for enlarging the church ; and it is now agreed that both ends of the building shall be extended, accord ing to the plans prepared by Arthur Holme, Esq. By this simple arrangement, 400 additional sittings will be gained, 300 of which it is proposed shall be declared free for ever for the use of the poor, and the rents of the re maining 100 shall be applied to assist in defraying the expenses incurred. A committee has been already partly formed for the purpose of raising subscriptions to carry the proposed alterations into effect. THE EXHIBITION AT THE COLLEGIATE INSTITUTION. —The great polytechnic exhibition continues to become more and more attractivl, as it becomes spoken of by those who have visited it; but the attendance, though numerous and respectable, has not yet been commensu rate with its merits, or with the spacious accommodations of the building for the reception, without crowding or in convenience, of a vast concourse of visitors in the ample and airy rooms and their approaches, a circumstance at tributable, in some degree, to its magnitude and excel lence in the several departments of art, science, industry, and research, being almost beyond the conception of those who have not wandered through it ; and, to a consider able extent, per'aaps, to there being no second price for the admission of parties who have but a short time in the evening to devote to its inspection, and who are conse quently precluded, excepting by frequent visits, from ex amining it in detail. We may say, however, that those who have been enabled to obtain a sight of the whole have been highly gratified, the general impression amongst them being, " We have seen far more than the worth of our money, and will come again on another day." THE EDUCATION OF THE CHILDREN IN OUR WORK sHeOn U t a S t E i 0 . — n s We contained in a l r a e s p t o w r t e e o k f upon te v i t s h i t e o r m s s o r f e p o r u e r workhouse, with respect to the education afforded there to the pauper children of the town. 'With a view to probe the truth of the statements contained in that document, circulars were sent out to a considerable number of the select vestrymen, appointing an examination of the chil dren to take place on Friday last. Messrs. Urquhart and Molyneux, the authors of the published report, were duly summoned to attend. On Friday, accordingly, the ex amination—a perfectly extempore one—took place in the presence of about ten gentlemen of the vestry. The scholars were examined, and some of the visitors thought very strictly, in their reading, writing, arithmetic, and their knowledge of the Scriptures ; and the result was to the perfect satisfaction of the members of the vestry pre sent. In every branch to which the teaching in the school extended, they displayed a proficiency and soundness which was highly creditable to their teachers, Mr. Pilk ington and his assistants, the " two ignorant paupers." As a matter of course, Messrs. Urquhart and Molyneux were not present to witness the practical evidence afforded of the incorrectness of the random imputations conveyed in the visitors' report ! DELIGHTFUL TRIP.—On Wednesday last, the boys belonging to the Liverpool Blue Coat School enjoyed a rich treat through the liberality of J. S. Jackson, Esq., of Birkenhead. The Woodside Ferry steamer Ic.un took the juvenile party on board at George's Pier about nine o'clock, a.m., and a party of ladies and gentlemen ac companied them. The party, on landing near Hoylake, proceeded through that village, with the band playing and colours flying, to the residence of J. S. Jackson, Esq. Here the boys were regaled with buns and half a pint of ale each, and whilst they enjoyed themselves with a good run over the race-course, the remainder of the party partook of a cold collation in a tent erected on the lawn. The health of Mr. J. S. Jackson, Mr. William Jackson, Prosperity to the Blue Coat School, and thanks to Mr. Foster, the excellent conductor of the institution, Mr. Swainson, treasurer of the school, were successively given. Mr. Foster and Mr. Swainson, in returning thanks, expressed their gratitude for the kindness which had that day been shown to the children by Mr. Jackson. Wm. Jackson, Esq., announced that it was his intention, early in the month of August next, to treat the school (by special train, from Birkenhead) with a visit to the " aynciente citie" of Chester, and Eaton Hall, the seat of the Marquis of Westminster. CRICKET MATCH.—The match betwen the Bootle and Edge-hill cricket clubs came off by appointment on the ground of the latter, in Hall-lane, on Wednesday after noon. Notwithstanding the appearances of rain, which showed themselves during the day, the cricketers seemed determined not to be disappointed of their game. Four o'clock had been fixed upon as the time for pitching wickets, but it was nearly five before the whole number could be mustered. At this time numbers of persons, (including about twenty ladies,) anxious to witness the contest, which promised to be a " tough one," had arrived an the field, and found accommodation in and around the tent which had been erected for the occasion. There was also a considerable number of spectators from Hall lane and other places contiguous to the field. The Bootle club went in first and scored a total of 40 runs. The Edge-hill immediately followed up and notched 39. In the second innings the Bootle made a score of 50, and the Edge-hill 53, leaving a majority in favour of the latter of 2. The Bootle club displayed some very scientific bowl ing, which, had it not been well met by two or three able batsmen on the opposition side, would have told fearlessly against the score of the latter. Towards the latter part of the evening it rained violently, which, however, did not cool the courage of the cricketers, or at all events did not extinguish it. It however served materially to detract from the pleasure of the game, and to render the play on both sides less " sure" than it otherwise might have been. We understand the return match is to take place at Bootle some two or three weeks hence. GREAT DIMINUTION IN THE IMPORTATION OF IRISH LABOURERS.—At this season, in former years, we have always been accustomed to see our dock quays, our streets, and the highways leading hence into the surrounding agri cultural districts strewed with immigrant Irish, seeking employment at the haymaking and harvest. In the pre sent year, however, the diminution i n th e num b ers of these visitant s i s strikingly perceptible to the most ordinary observer. From an enquiry which we have made from one of our principal steam-boat companies, we find that whereas, last year, they had, from Dublin alone, an average, up to this period, of 2000 deck passengers, they have had, in the present year, only 1200,—thus showing a falling off of 800 weekly, or 40 per cent. There is little doubt that the bulk of these 800 passengers is composed of the class who come here to the harvesting. Two reasons are assignable for this circumstance. In the first place, the success of the parties who visited us last year was very bad, owing to the depressed condition of our own manu facturing population driving them to undertake field labour. The chief inducement, however, for the Irish labourers absenting themselves appears to be the agitation going on in that country for the repeal of the union, and the absurd expectations held out by the agitators to the deluded peasantry, that their condition is about to be permanently bettered by the success of that movement. It is dreadful to reflect what must be the condition, during the ensuing winter, of th e t h ousands of wretched creatures who, for years past. have been accustomed to carry home from this country the means of paying the rent of their little hold ings, and the winter's food find fuel for themselves and their families. They must be involved in utter starvation ; and, perhaps, in that state, they will furnish the more con . venient materials for agitation to work upon. view m SUDDEN st i n DEATH.—An a n E t A I "1.111.1.'"....."""1"........."1"-- dec sed wh llbOge DREADFUL A three o'clock, as a poor boy, named William Jo.'
