Sir George Sinclair, Bart. W. Basfield Ferrand, Esq., John Walter, Esq. M.P. Honorary Secretary—Mr. William Atkinson. object contemplated by th e supporters of this fund .1. is that of providing for the well-known advocate of public rights, Mr. RICHARD OASTLER, and his family. Having been impressed very early in life with the extreme importance of those principles which conduce to the general welfare of society, and encouraging constantly in his mind a feeling hostile to every infraction of those principles, Mr. Oastler became a strenuous supporter of the cause of the weak and the oppressed, as well as an ardent opponent of all who attempted to exercise injustice and cruelty. The sphere of his private duties being the great manufac turing districts of England, Mr. Oastler's sympathies were necessarily excited by the sufferings of children of tender years who were employed in th e m a nufactories, and the ener gies of his mind were directed to the great question of legis lative regulation of factory labour. To all who have exerted themselves in this interesting and momentous question, Mr. Oastler has given the most efficient support ; and those who have watched the progress of the subject are gratified by knowing that the question having obtained the unction of the legislature of Great Britain, has also been adopted in France, Prussia, Austria, Russia, Switzerland, and a part of the United States of America. Mr. Oastler, as is well known, has also contended for a just and humane system of Poor Laws; and his advocacy of the great and sacred principle upon which all Poor Laws should be founded, in contradis tinction to the molern attempt to innovate and encroach upon the constitutional right of the poor to relief, may be characterised as strenuous, constant, and most successful. Although the advocacy of the great public questions before mentioned has placed Mr. Oastler in the position of an in fluential supporter of popular rights, yet he has not attempt ed either to increase or to uphold his influence by appealing or yielding to the selfish passions of any section of the com munity; but he has boldly and emphatically, and often in the midst of great personal danger, denounced oppression and injustice in whatever quarter they appeared to him to originate, whether it was in the case of the rich against the poor, or in that of the poor against the rich, his object being to instil into the minds of the whole people the great truth of RELATIVE duties, and the paramount necessity of fulfil ling them ; the FOUCCC from which he has derived his know ledge of those duties being the will of God, as revealed to mankind in the Holy Scriptures. Thus Mr. Oastler's constant endeavour has been to main tain the principles upon which the British Constitution is founded; unitinc , the monarchy, the aristocracy, and the entire body of the people in a mutual and just support of each other, that bond of union being the Church of Christ. It will not excite surprise, that, seeing systematic tyranny and cruelty practised upon the most helpless of our race in the extent to which Mr. Oastler has witnessed it, he should have been driven, by the enthusiastic ardour of his nature, to utter expressions which those who have not been similarly circumstanced might well condemn ; but on this point he has been the subject of much misrepresentation, and also of much wilful detraction ; notwithstanding which he has con tinued in an undeviating course of public duty, not permit ting his exertions to sustain the least check on account of opposition and difficulties which would have overwhelmed most men. One very important fact, shewing the true and valuable nature of his services, should here be mentioned, which is, that those who have been so placed as to be best acquainted with his motives and his proceedings, have proved themselves to be his warmest and most constant public sup porters, as well as his private friends, a mongs t w h om may be reckoned proprietors of some of the largest factories in the kingdom. The great efforts which Mr. Oastler has made for his country, have, however, cost him much. No considerations of private interest have ever restrained him in his endeavours to fulfil that which he conceived to be his public duty. This great, benevolent, and patriotic man is now the inmate of a debtors' prison ; debarred the full exercise of those admira ble faculties of mind and body which are so well adapted to procure an ample provision for himself and family. A moat earnest appeal is made to those who are attached to the cause of BriLisli Constitutional Government to contribute towards raising a fund for the purpose of placing Mr. Oastler, his wife, and their adopted daughter, in comfortable circum stances. The money which is raised will be under the con trol of the Trustees whose names are before mentioned, who will decide on the best method of fulfilling the object in tended. . The projectors of this Testimonial beg to suggest to all. the friends and supporters of Mr. Oastler's principles, the necessity of proceeding immediately to form themselves into Committees for the purpose of canvassing their respective neighbourhoods, and communicating the results to the Ho norary Secretary ; for it should be particularly remembered that the wellbeing of all who obtain their living by their daily labour is especially included in this cause, and that many of them feel a warm interest in it, whose contributions, how ever small, will be equally esteemed s those of much larger amount. Subscriptions will be received by Messrs. DRUMMONDS, Bankers, Charing-cross, London ; and by the Honorary Se cretary, Mr. `Arm. ATRINSON, No. 16, Doughty-street, London, to whom all inquiries and communications are to be addressed ; and at the office of the LIVERPOOL STANDARD. LITHOGRAPHY.

Mr. Nelson's Gelatine is therefore capable of forming the best Blanc Mange, without being apt to curdle the Milk, as the Acidulous Gelatine infallably will do, I find that one ounce of his Opaque Gelatine is sufficient to form a Quart of Calves' Font or Orange Jelly of the best quality.
