liberpooi gktanbarb. OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT. Monday Morning. WELL, the parliament of 1847 has been dissolved—has been sent to its dread account—has passed into eternity. The late, piece of complicated machinery by which the kingdom was moved, and the actions of the civilised world in a great degree regulated, has been stopped by the tiny hand of a fairy QUEEN, and broken into atoms—that busy, fussy, animated body, a few days ago so noisy and so powerful, is now only a memory, is no better than an old forgotten song, no more potential than an old almanack. The six hundred and fifty-six—what shall I call them 1- - • !"—geese be it—sacred geese, that cackled .e capitol, having been first politely thanked for their services, have been turned out to grass—despatched the country—driven to the market to see what they ley are worth, and if customers will have them for love One brace, the St. Albans' fowl, has been 3eese, villain or money .eci on the head outright; the birds were judged rorthy to be presented at any booth ; they were ,acrificed to atone for the sins of the rest—to vouch for the purity of the remainder. After all, a flock of six hundred and fifty-six must be very white which has only ck rascals in it. The ceremony of a dissolution, or, rather, of a proroga tion preparatory to a dissolution, is a magnificent one, although, like all things human, it has its dark as well as its; bright aspects. It is the grandest of all possible sights to see the QUEEN in her royal robes, and wearing that sparkling diadem which sits so gracefully on her fair igh brow, accompanied by her PRINCE CONSORT in those , brated jack-boots, which are now deemed indispen , in all royal pageants, and become quite historical, enter the gorgeous Chamber of Peers, and take her seat on the constitutional throne of her ancestors. It is splen did to see such a fine old warrior as the Duke of WEL LINGTON bearing before such a sovereign as VICTORIA the Sword of State - ,—the wisdom, sagacity, and fidelity of aged manhood, —supporting the gracefulness, the gentle ness, and weakness of youthful womanhood. It is brave 1 -nld such an Earl as him of DERBY, the type of .valry, the beau ideal of nobility, the impersona- tion of the Paladin of old, sans pear et sans reproche,— proudly bearing the imperial crown, and looking indeed like one loyally resolved to maintain its honour untarnished, and its dignity undiminished. It is surpassing beautiful to observe that brilliant congregation of superb women, the flower of England's boasted loveli arrayed in garments of the rainbow's hues and c oriental sparkle—of brave peers of 'tate, habited in their scarlet robes )f peace, and impressing all beholders with the idea of loci, strength, and order—of richly attired princes lorned with gems o ad, pillars of the s ors, and ministers, the rep lesentatives of foreign the guarantees of friendship and cordial rela- be world. It is an indescribably impos- ing spectacle this ; and when the clear, sweet, ringing voice of the QUEEN is heard in that gorgeous hall, while every other breath is hushed, and every movement is suppressed lest that profound stillness might be impaired, the effect is solemn, majestic, and awful, beyond what any one who has not witnessed it can imagine. But, with all its gran deur, such a prorogation as that which took place on Thursday last has its drawbacks. There was a certain mob of gentlemen present at that ceremonial to whom the silver-toned accents of her MAJESTY were anything but pleasant. That tall, commanding, handsome personage, with the gold-embroidered stately garments, and full flowing wig, in every way worthy of his title, " the first comracner in England," and that placid, philosophical, remarkable man beside him, who has proved himself in every way worthy of his responsible charge, the CHAN CELLO:i of the ExcHE(tunt, and a few others who pressed forward to the bar, heard the royal announcement of their ;al to the constituents with composure, and even feeling of proud consciousnass of a renewed lease ular confidence. But behind them were many to the musical voice of the SOVEREIGN sounded harsh roof, dismal as death More than one ambitious (raper and mercer must have felt that he had received his cone (to return to his counter, and to the exercise of his best airs and graces—to the practice of seductive bows and irresistible grins, and the exquisitely mincing utterance of such delectable phrases, as " What can I show you next, mem ? We have everything of the best quality, and in the newest fashions, mem." More than a score whom I could name, but will not, must have regarded that royal decree as a sentence of banishment or imprison ment— as a cruel order of delivery into the inexorable hands of justice, who waited outside, in the grim ugly shape of a sheriff's officer. To such coves it is but charity to whisper a bit of consolation. Cheer up, jolly hearts, France is a pleasant place and not far off; bailiffs, like hounds, are baulked by the water ; and English con stituents do like to give an asylum to hard-pressed decent young fellows and sporting old boys, when regularly run More than I would ()roughs as a 1 t resource to number must have deemed that summons to ap- re their masters, and give an acipunt of their ste- wardship, tantamount to an order to quit the public service for ever, conscious that they had betrayed their trust, and that their debits and credits would not bear overhauling. Almost all must have heard that solemn warning with fear and trembling, for electors are fickle and members of the House of Commons are, at the close of a Parliament, but mortal sinful men ; and, in short, seats are insecure, and not to be relied on by the best occupiers. So, with all its pomp, its purple, and its glory, a prorogation with a dissolution behind it, is necessarily a lugubrious cere- that on Thursday last formed no exception to lt in that august ceremony had a dash of the n it, and may be worth mentioning. The Duke Of WELLINGTON stood at the side of the QUEEN, holding the sword of state, a weapon more remarkable for its licrous Eager to catch every syllable than its inflames, le from the lips of his Sovereign, and being un rather deaf, the veteran soldier leaned forward, hand to his ear, and, as the QUEEN proceeded, ser and closer to her, until his venerable head - .ached her cheek ; and at one moment, what with — g ,ut of the ponderous sword and the awkwardness ,f the position which he gradually assumed, his grace seemed really in danger of losing his ec i uilibrium, and down on his Royal mistress. It would have , en strange indeed if the hero who had saved the throne many a hard-fought field, had overthrown it by a2ci mt in the peaceful palace. But history has not to record " untoward event." ling adieu to the Parliament of 1847, and con to the hands of the historical undertaker, I to one bright passage which graced its expiring moments. Like a dying candle, it gave forth a last lumi nous flare—brief but brilliant—ere resigning itself to its impending fate. That incomparable orator and greatly gifted man, Lord LYNDHURST, once more illumined the House of Lords with the light of pure genius, and for a I therein the sacred fire of classic .ch as is seldom now seen burning thin its of the mher the masterly re. sessions which the noble and learned used to take when the " hereditary Whigs" misma- d the administrative, and botched the legislative, ness of the country. All will readily call to mind the I array of facts which he used to produce—all will :et the damning proofs he used to pile one upon the of promises broken, of performances contemptible lated or utterly knocked on of measi perpetrated, of nciples violated, of jobs attempted, of perfect wretched expedients tried hes of Lord LYNDHURST were, did he Inn specimens of analy- and political criticism ever see him approach lood fre perate,sO Tmi3ed to I have seen the best and harnie utterable d e art of dissection took ti pronounced ie subject so collected, t of the at great e saw nor the rough carving knife that he bran- e weapon ,e used olishec :eenest e appl: .t, that the vice e bone, every fibre an and vital to the 3n of the I houses with th d the off nted to the coun- I being 0 to fumi ,ate the court walls v THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, TUESDAY, JULY 6, 1852. Hence the result of his sessional criticism was a wonder ful contrast to what it would have been had the triumvi rate—RrssELL, COBDEN, and GRAHAM—been in office. That result was lucidly summed up by Lord LYNDHURST in a few words :—" During the four months the present government has been in power, more important business, ' and bills of greater utility have been passed, than in any other session since the commencement of the present Parliament." Lord DERBY modestly and chivalrously ascribed the successful passing of the measures he had carried into law to the forbearance and generosity of the two Houses; but the country will not be so courteous, nor forget that some of these measures were opposed with a factious virulence and a shameless disregard of decency unparalleled in Parliamentary warfare. But "Le Roi est mort—Vive Le Roi !" The Parliament of 1847 is gone to the dogs—Hurrah for the Parliament of 1852 ! The coming elections absorb every other subject— nothing else is thought of —nothing else excites the least interest. We are all in a state of commotion, reduced to a condition of chaos—to first elements. Society is dis solved, and civilisation is put in abeyance. The court, the nobility, the gentry, even the peaceably disposed quiet citizens have all rushed from town, and left London and the metropolitan districts in the hands of poll clerks, agents, candidates, and the electoral mobocracy. In a swarm of Hums, or Goths over our city, it would not look more unlike itself—more turned from its usual pro priety. It is useless to speculate on the upshot of this appeal to the country, when a week will put us in posses sion of information from which we can draw some reliable conclusion. Enough to say that the Whig-Radicals are dispirited, and the friends of the Government are in high hope. To-morrow London pill pronounce, and several of the most important towns in the country, including Liverpool. On Liverpool the eyes of England are fixed — on her the hopes of conservative and constitutional government are rested. Let Liverpool be true, and Eng la►d, her crown, and dignity are saved. COMMERCIAL AND MONETARY NEWS. MONDAY NIGHT. A BUOYANT feeling generally prevails in commer cial circles, caused in part by the increasing abun dance of money at low rates of discount, and in part by the prospect of securing a strong adminis tration. Some degree of impetus must also have been given to prices of all commodities by the demand both for labour and for staple articles of produce, caused by the rapidly-increasing emigra tion to Australia. The excitement of the elections, however, has temporarily suspended business, our exchange being almost deserted, and politics more done in than any other article. _ _ _ The return from the Bank of England for the week ending the 26th June gives the following re sults when compared with the previous week : Public deposits .. £7,596,979; Increase £740,160 Other deposits .. 12,834,028 ; Decrease 196,931 Rest .. 3,077,944 ; Increase 2,390 On the other side of the account— Government securities £13,874,526 ; the same as before. Other securities.. .. 10,755,395 ; Decrease 113,255 Notes unemployed .. 14,244,620 ; Increase 728,690 The amount of notes in circulation is £21,342,555, being a decrease of £94,430 ; and the stock of bullion in both departments is £22,042,683, show ing an increase of £607,666 when compared with the preceding return. Our SHARE MARKET at the early part of the week continued very active, and the amount of business done, both speculative and for investment, was at higher rates generally. Towards the close of the week, however, from people generally being engaged with the elections to come, we have had very little doing, but there has not been any decline in prices. The account, though very heavy, passed easily over, and the rates of centangs were very light. Gold mines look like an advance. We annex the quotations of this day : Chester and Birkenhead, 19 ; Eastern Counties, 101- 11-16 10'1; East Lancashire, 191- 20 ; Lanca shire and Yorkshire, 84 -k 4-k 4 ; ditto £2O F, par ; Lancaster and Carlisle thirds, llp ; London stock, 131 ; ditto new quarters, 32; Sheffield quarters, 10 ; Midland stock, 74i- 4-; ditto new pref., ; Derby stock, 401 ; North Union halts, np : Dover stock, 2.1 i 2 1-4- 2 ; Sheffield and Goole, 221; York and North Midland, 261; Belfast and Bally mena,34 ; Liverpool and London Fire and Life,4lp. PRODUCE MARKET.—Notwithstanding theeffect of the elections, articles are pretty well supported in price, and a healthy tone prevails. The refining qualities of Plantation SUGAR continue in good demand. Among the sales are 250 hhds Demerara, at 31s. 6d. to 345., 70 hhds. Trinidad at 325. 9d., 6,000 bags Pernambuco at 16s. 9d., also 3,850 bags Khaur at 275., 150 bags new Dates 38s. Gd., and a small lot of Bengal at 325. 3d.per cwt. MOLASSES are in good request, we note sales of 500 puncheons Antigua at 16s. Gd. ex quay, and 330 puncheons Porto Rico with 400 puncheons Barbadoes both to arrive, at 16s. Gd. per cwt. The COFFEE market keeps steady, 20 tierces Jamaica have changed hands at late rates, and GO bags St. Domingo at 425. There is a fair demand for most current qualities of TEA. Small sales are declared for Friday next, consisting chiefly of fine Congous. To-day 1,000 bags Bahia COCOA, with all faults, sold at 20s. per cwt, and we have sales to notice of 220 tons St. Domingo Loowoon at £3. 7s. rd. to £3. 10s. per ton, 100 cases CASTOR OIL at 3-W. to 3 d. per lb, also 260 bags Bombay LINSEED at 455. to 465. 3d., SO chests SHELL LAC at 425., and 160 bags SAGO FLOUR at 14s. per cwt. COTTON. —The market during the past week has been quiet, but steady ; and, although the sales I were to a fair extent, no change of moment has taken place in prices, except the common qualities of Surat, which are a point in favour of the buyer since Friday. The accounts per the America do not contain any new feature respecting the new crop. The sales of the last three business days sum up about I 8,000 bales, of which from three to four thousand are on speculation and for export. The import since Thursday is 15,000 bales. The demand for all descriptions of WooL continues steady, but as nearly all the Foreign now here i 3 held for Public Sale, there is little business doing : prices are firm. GRAlN.—There was an improved tone in the market for Grain on Friday. Wheat was the turn higher. The recent showery state of the weather has chiefly produced this result. We have a favor able change of two days, with a prospect of its continuance. LIVERPOOL POLICE COURT. YESTERDAY. CHILD Roaatsc.—Elizabeth Bethel was placed before T. W. Rathbone and J. H. Turner, Esys., charged with robbing several children of clothes, &c. It appeared that the practice of the prisoner was to stop children in the st Teets with either baskets or bundles of clothes, and on promise of a small gratuity, sending them some trifling errand, telling them she would take care of the clothes until they returned. Of course on their return she was not to be found. On being apprehended a quantity of clothes were found in her house. She was committed for trial. PrcKING POCICET.—A boy, named Patrick Burns, was remanded to prison for seven days on a charge of picking a female's pocket of Is. sd. in money. STEALING Co - rrox.—An old Irishwoman, named Ann Mealia, was committed for five days on a charge of steal ing cotton. TOWN COUNCIL—We understand that, in consequence of the election, the usual montilly meeting of the Council will not be held till Monday next. OMINOUS.—The first place of rendezvous on the Radi cal Processsion placard is the Necropolis .'

In the corresponding period of 1851 the number was 103,554. DR. PARR AND THE LADY.—The rudeness of Dr. Parr to ladies was sometimes extreme. To a lady who had ventured to oppose him with more warmth of temper than cogency of reasoning, and who afterwards apologised for herself by saying " that it was the privilege of women to talk nonsense," " No, Madam," he repled, " it is not their privilege, but their infirmity. Ducks would walk if they could, but nature suffers them only to waddle '" IMPORTANCE OF EMPHASIS.—A stranger from country, observing one of Carpenter's roller count house rules, lifted up. and inquiring the object, answered, " It is a rule for counting-houses."

A PROTESTANT DISSENTER'S REASONS FOR VOTING AGAINST MR. CARDWELL. TO EDWARD CARDWELL, ESQ Liverpool, July sth, 1852 Szn,—As numerous meetings, professedly of Protestant Dissenters, have been held of late, to secure your election for this town, permit me to inform you and the public why T, as an Evangelical Dissenter, feel constrained to vote against you. You are to address the Electors to-morrow at your nomination, and may think it worth while to refer to my objections. If you remove them satisfactorily to me, I pledge myself to vote for you. _ . . Upon the ground of your identity with the class of politicians known as Peelites, it is unnecessary to stop for formal proof. Your warm support by some, and your equally warm hostility from others, have proceeded from this cause. You were the intimate friend, both political and personal, of the late Sir R. Peel. You are regarded in the same light by the present chiefs of the party. You formed a member of their last Administration, and if they should succeed again to power, it is confidently stated by your friends, that you would be Chancellor of the Exche quer. Your friends consider you as justly entitled to the alleged merits of the Peelites when in office. You must also be regarded as responsible for their demerits. Amongst many others I specify the following : . . Ist. That you and the Peelites being in power and charged with the appointment of a tutor to the Prince of Wales, selected the present Bishop of Oxford, thus placing the training of our future King in the hands of a subtile Tractarian, whose three brothersand whose brother-in-law have since joined the church of Rome ; and who, the sub. scriber, in common with many others, believes would himself, ere this, have become a Popish Priest, but that he can advance the views of Rome better as a Bishop of the Church of England, to which he was appointed by you and the Peelites. 2nd—That you and the Peelites being in power during the recent convulsions of the Church of Scotland, and, as the government of the country, calla upon to pour oil on the troubled waters, did, on the contrary, take every opportunity, both in the House of Commons and out of it, to taunt, insult, and irritate the non-intrusion party, and finally forced on " the disruption," thus inflicting a heavy blow upon the Established Churches of the land, and introducing heart-burnings and bitter dissentious through the length and breadth of Scotland. 3rd. That you and the Peelites, being in power, did; at the instance of an Irish Unitarian minister, adopt as a government measure, and pass into law, a bill prepared by him, which Mr. Blackburne, the chairman of one of your Dissenting public meetings, on another public occasion not long since, most properly designated the "Infamous" Dissenters' Chapels Bill, by which'upwards of a million's worth of property, rightfully belonging to the Evangelical Dissenters of England and Ireland, was handed over to the Socinians, who, but for this most timely spoliation of orthodox funds, must soon have ceased to be known amongst the religious communities of the land. 4th. Whilst you and the Peelites were thus insidiously corrupting the principles of the Prince and the Church by Puseyite teachers and bishops, and weakening and robbing evangelical Christians, in all parts of thekingdom, and of all sects, both Churchmen and Dissenters, you were engaged not only in enriching Socinianism with the spoils, but in increasing the Endowment to Maynooth, and in placing it upon the Consolidated Fund ; thus presenting the singular coincidence of employing office and power in strengthening and extending Puseyism, Socinianism, andiPopery, at the same time that you were weakening, and discouraging, and robbing Evangelism. sth. That you and the Peelites, being professedly the friends of Lord John Russell and the Whigs, have inva riably acted in opposition to the noble lord, and on a late occasion, having had the offer of a junction with the Whigs, and having had it in your power to perpetuate the Free-trade measures lately adopted v.nd to consolidate a liberal government, refused, and by that refusal broke up the Russell Administration, drove out the Free-traders, and brought in the Protectionists, thus completely re. moving all claims of support by consistent Whigs, and proving your party to be as much the political opponents of Lord John as of Lord Derby. For these and other reasons the undersigned cannot help regarding you and the Peelites, as, if notactual Jesuits, at least very jesuitically inclined. Your " cleverness," so much talked of, in deceiving so many professedly " good Protestants" and " intelligent merchants," by your undoubted Evangelism, as the friend of the Arch bishop of Canterbury and Dr. Chalmers, taken in con nection with the facts already adduced, only confirm the suspicion, and certainly can prove no more in your case than in that of another personage still " cleverer," who, whilst performing deeds of the blackest darkness, is able to impose upon multitudes of " most intelligent per- sons," and to pass for an angel of light. These, Sir, are my views and feelings, and with them you will see that, till I first dispose of my conscience, I must vote against you. Remove them, and you shall have my vote, and my best thanks too, with those of many others—meantime, I enclose my card to the Editor of the Standard, who will certify, if need be, that I am A GENUINE PROTESTANT DISSENTER. DISCOVERY AND SEIZURE OF ALLEGED I ORANGEMEN'S ARMS. ON Saturday afternoon the public were thrown into a state of great excitement, by the publication, in a third edition of the Journal, of a statement that the magis trates had received information of a number of dangerous weapons (pikes) being in process of manufacture, under the superintendence of an Orange Alderman, intended for the use of the Orangemen on the day of election ; and that they had been seized on the premises of the party making them. The Albion, yesterday, published a repetition of the charge, and a further statement that " a second lot of weapons were found on Wednesday evening, at the shop of Mr. Taylor, turner, Great Crossball-street ;" and added: " The same evening were found, in a place in Hatton-garden, a large quantity of tin emblems, crowns, bibles, stars, moons, &c., formed to fit on the top of the weapons, which would then present the appearance of innocent baubles ; but, when the time of action arrived, the tin tops could be removed, and a spear placed in a hole prepared for the purpose." Such charges made against a numerous body of men, during a period of great excitement, and when it was known that the Irish population of the town, opposed to them in religion, would be but too easily led to rush into collision with them, ought not to have been made lightly, even if true; and their being placarded on the walls was most unjustifiable in any case, and calculated to lead to serious breaches of the peace, and possible loss of life. The impression circulated that the Orangemen meditated an attack upon the Irish Catholics may probably lead the latter to prepare for retaliation, for there is unfortunately little time left now to remove such impression from the minds of an ignorant and psssionate people. We are enabled distinctly to state that the affair is a bubble from first to last. There was no concealment used to justify the magistrates or the officers arriving at the conclusion that the alleged " weapons" were intended for any improper purpose. They were lying openly in a respectable painter's shop, within two doors from the Town-hall, for the purpose of being painted, and were simply intended for carrying in the procession the regalia—a bible, a crown, a liver, and a ship. They were formed so as to divide in two for the purpose of being more easily carried to the place of rendezvous, without exciting unnecessary notice ; and were to be placed under the charge of respectable gentlemen, who would only entrust them to responsible persons. Lastly, they were not ordered by, or for, the Orangemen at all; but by the Chairman and deputy-chairman of Scotland, Exchange, and Vauxhall Wards, to be carried in the processions belonging to those Wards. A letter was yesterday afternoon presented to the Mayor and magistrates, of which the following is a copy, by a deputation which waited upon them at the Sessions house for the purpose of demanding their restoration : " Liverpool, July 5, 1852 " Sir,—We understand that the police have taken in charge the regalia wands o' der.3d by us for the use of the wards to which we respecti• ely belong. We beg to state that the regalia to be carried consists imply of emblems of a ship, a liver, a crown, and a globe, and are conse quently unobjectionable. We regret that the placard is sued by the Journal should have been issued last Satur day : it is unjust, and calculated to lead to excitement. We beg , to say that the statement as to the Orange body having ordered the wands is untrue. The wands were or dered by us on behalf of our wards. The wands to which we refer are about 100 in number. We shall be glad to give any further explanation if required ; and we beg that the wands may be restored. They will be under the sole control of ourselves and our respective committees, and we shall hold ourselves responsible for the carrying out of the purpose for which they were intended, viz. the carry ing of emblems at the head of each ward. " We are, Sir, your obedient servants, " RICHARD EDWARDS, Exchange Ward. " THOMAS WILLIAMS, Vauxhall Ward. "THOMAS WATSON, Scotland Ward." After the magistrates had consulted together for a short time, the deputation were informed that the magistrates were perfectly satisfied that the wands were made for a legi timate purpose ; and it was intimated that the wrong impression which had gone forth respecting them would be corrected by authority. In the mean time, however, it is but too certain that the scandalous misrepresentation has answered its object in damaging, and producing an ill feeling against the body misrepresented. We are desired to state, in conclusion, that there is no Orangeman an Alderman of Liverpool, or even a member of the Town Council. BANKRUPTCY COURT, YESTF,RD tY. —Mr. James M'Coskie had a first class certificate granted to him by Mr. Commissioner Perry, without opposition.—Mr. James Leader, builder, came up for his certificate, on the application of Mr. Tyrer. Mr. Harvey, on behalf of the assignees, offered no opposition. Mr. Evans, solicitor, appeared for a creditor, but merely asked a few questions, and then offered no opposition. A certificate of the first class was granted. WENHAM LAKE ICE.—The Parliament, which has just arrived from Boston, has on board a large consignment of this celebrated ice for Messrs. H. T. Ropes and Co. Wenham Lake ice is undoubtedly the purest and the best imported. It is a luxury this weather. CONSECRATION OF CHRIST CHURCH, EALING.-011 Wednesday morning, the Bishop of London consecrated this beautiful church, which has been built through the munificence and librality of Miss Lewis, who has almost entirely defrayed the cost. The church stands within a few minutes' walk of the Ealing station. After service was over, the bells pealed out merrily, and the company went to Miss Lewis's residence, where an elegant dejotiter was provided. THE HUMAN HEART is like a feather-bed—it must be roughly handled, well shaken, and exposed to a variety of turns, to prevent it becoming hard. THE REAL LONDON PRIDE.- - We know an inveterate cockney who declares that London milk beats the country milk, and beats it " by many chalks."—Punch. How TO PREACH.—When you preach, be real. Set your people before you in their numbers, their dangers, their capacities ; choose a subject, not to show yourself off, but to benefit them, and then speak straight to them, as you would beg your life, or counsel your son, or call your nearest friend from a burning house, in plain, strong, earnest words.—Bishop of Oxford. THE MINISTERIAL FISH DINNER.—The custom grew up in this manner :—Towards the end of the last century and at the beginning of the present, the Commissioners of Dagenham Reach included the First Lord of the Trea sury, with several other high functionaries, and some Elder Brothers of the Trinity•house—amongst others, Sir Robert Preston, who had a house near the Reach, and was intimately acquainted with Pitt. During Pitt's pre miership the commissioners made an annual expedition down the river to survey the Dagenham Reach embank ments ; and they afterwards dined on or near the scene of their not very laborious duties, Sir Robert Preston supplying the fruit for the dessert. When this prescrip tive excursion was discontinued, some of the most dis tinguised Tories resolved to have an annual dinner of their own, and formed themselves into a club for that purpose, Candidates were at first admitted by ballot, as in the case of other analogous institutions ; and the minis terial character attached to the rAnion arose from the accidental circumstance of the club being mainly com posed of persons whose tenure of power had lasted so long, and seemed so little liable to more than temporal:) , interruption, as to justify them, in their own opinion, in assuming official existence as the basis of their convivial intercourse. The Secretary of the Treasury for the time being was always charged with the arrangements of the party, the payment of the bill, &c. ; and eventually the belief got abroad that any Tory, ,:entitled to wear the blue and gold uniform, was an injured individual unless he re ceived his annual summons to eat white bait in right hon ourable company. It is commonly agreed that no one contributed more to the general hilarity of these festivities than the late Sir Robert Peel, who was a striking example of the truth that high reputation in one line may fre quently disqualify a man from acquiring an equally well deserved fame in another. When in the fulness of health and hope he presided at the fish dinner, he was confessedly the most amusing of the party, and the readiest and most apt in the required allusions, " May we keep their places without their flounders," was, on one occasion, his good humoured allusion to the discomfited Whigs. When the present Premier once acted as chairman, he was fortu nately aided by an excellent whipper-in, who, by way of preparation, had carefully analysed the division-lists of the session just concluded. From these it appeared that a right honourable baronet had been the most assiduous attendant in the House of Commons, and the late Sir William Follett the most remiss. As soon as the cloth was removed, they were required to appear before the chair ; and a comic reproof was administered to the dis tinguished lawyer—who, by the way, only half relished the joke—whilst the right honourable baronet was solemnly presented with a penny mug, labelled " A reward for Jemmy for being a good boy."—Morning paper. -Live& of the Chancellor 3oLoGNA.—A woman should love 80l LORD ELDON'S FATHER.—After the death of his first wife, he rose one morning with the whimsical resolution of marrying any one of his maids who should first appear on his ringing the bell. He rang, and the chambermaid came up, to whom he abruptly said. " Get yourself ready, and go with me to be married." The silly girl, treating the affair as a joke, refused, and withdrew. He rang the bell a second time, when the cookmaid appeared, to whom he said, " Well, my girl, I intend this day to make you my wife ; go and dress yourself in the best you have, and order the coach to be ready immediately." She took him at his word, dressed herself, and coming down stairs was met by the silly chambermaid, who asked her, " 'Where she was going ?" She answered' " Abroad—l have my master's leave." She had scarce utter words, when her master came down, and took hand to the coach, which drove to St. Benet where they were married ler by the their anatorn,i- THE ELECTION FOR LIVERPOOL. THE ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE PROCESSIONS AND THE POLLING. THE writ for the election of members for this borough was received by the Mayor on Thursday; and at noon his worship made the usual proclamation in front of the Town-hall, fixing the nomination for (this day) Tuesday, at ten o'clock, a.m., and the polling to take place from eight, a.m., to four, p.m., on Wednesday (to-morrow). I t baying been determined that both parties should be escorted to the hustings by a procession of their friends, INQUESTS. The following inquests were held yesterday, before P. F. Curry, Esq., at the Coroner's Court : DEATHS FROM DROWNING•—On the bodies of John Roberts, aged eleven years, who had lived at No. 13, Dawson-street; and of David Lloyd, aged twenty-two, who were drowned in a pit adjoining the Stanley Dock. on Sunday. It appeared from the evidence that on Sunday afternoon the boy Roberts and two others went to the Stanley Dock. Roberts and another boy took off their clothes and went into the pit to bathe. They found the water too deep for them, but the other boy got hold of a piece of rock, and was saved. The man Lloyd coming up at the time, jumped in to try to save life, but lost his own in the attempt. The body of Lloyd was got out, but nearly an hour after he went in, and that of Roberts shortly after. Verdict, accidental death. On the body of a child found near the railings adjoining, St. Paul's Church-yard. The body was that of a still born child. Verdict, accordingly. On the body of James Williams, a fisherman, aged 30, who had been for some time past much addicted to drink ing. On Friday night he went to his home, No. 1 court, Lancelot's Hey, more sober than usual. Shortly after he sent a party who was in the house for a pickled herring, but on the return of the messenger he was found seated in his chair dead. Verdict, died by the visitation of God. On the body of John Grant, an infant, aged six weeks old, who had been overlain by his mother. Verdict, nc cidentally suffocated while in bed. MURDER OF A SAILOR.—On the body of Charles Gamble, aged 38, who was a seaman on board the American ship Monmouth, now lying in the Bram ley-Moore Dock. It appeared from the evidence that on Sunday, the 13th ult., the vessel arrived in this port from Portsmouth, and in the evening he and several of his shipmates left the vessel and got drunk. Afterwards the deceased and two or three of his shipmates went to a brothel in Peter-street. After they had been there a few minutes, one of the shipmates missed the deceased, went to look for him, and heard his voice in a house opposite. He kicked at the door, but the people would not allow him to come in. He then called for police constable 573, and told him of the circumstance. The constable knocked at the door, and it was opened, 1 when the deceased came out, and both the witness and deceased being drunk, they were sent out of the street by the officer. The deceased turned back into the street, followed by his shipmate. There iwas then a crowd in the street, who attacked the deceased, and directly he called out that he was stabbed. The police then came up, and had the deceased removed into a house in the same street. It was found that the deceased had been stabb?d in the side, under the right shoulder. He was removed to the Northern Hospital, and died on Friday night last from the effect of the wound. It was found that one of his ribs had been cut completely through. Verdict, wilful murder against some person or persons unknown, RE-APPEARANCE OF POTATO BLIGHT.—Mr. John O' Hagan, a farmer, in a letter to the Dvblin Evening Post, dated " Ballyragget, county Kilkenny, June 28,' says :—" I have lately been over a considerable extent of the conterminous portions of Kilkenny and Queen's County, and regret to say that the dreaded potato-blight has again appeared in several localities. I have this day inspected the crop in the neighbourhood of this town, and although the blight has, in but few instances assumed a decided form, yet incipient symptoms are apparent in almost every field." With respect to the potato crop in the county Down, the Belfast Banner says :—" A gen tleman residing in county Down informs us that the dis ease which, during the last few years, has been so fatal to the potato crop in general, is decidedly present in his early-planted potatoes this season. This is the first in stance of the re-appearance of the epidemic in question which has yet been reported to us." The general ac. counts from Ireland still describe the potato crop as entirely free from disease, and as promising a most abun dant yield. SUPPORTING A CHARACTER.—A gentleman who per sonated a naval officer at the late Birmingham Fancy Ball, was asked where he had received his wound ? He replied, at Waterloo ! CURE FOR WARTS.—A correspondent of the Collage Gardener says :—" There is a very useful property be longing to the ranunculus arvens, or common crowfoot, which I do not think is generally known, and which I should like to see recorded in your valuable publication.

MACKENZIE AND TURNER AT BIRKENHEAD LAST NIGHT. TRIUMPHANT RECEPTION. The Conservative candidates for this borough visited Birkenhead last evening, where a considerable number of freemen and electors reside. They were announced to meet the electors at the Craven Rooms at half-past six o'clock. A most successful canvass of the freemen resid ing on the Cheshire side of the Mersey has been carried on during the last few weeks, under the auspices of a committee, of which Mr. Robert Hughes has acted as chairman, and Mr. James Mort as honorary secretary, the result of which is that nine-tenths of the electors have most unequivocally declared that they will vote for the Conservative candidates. The Radical party attempted to solicit the votes of the freemen and electors resident in Cheshire, and to accomplish their purpose engaged a committee-room at the Park Hotel, for which they promised to pay as. per night. The first night four of the committee attended—the second three—and the third only two, although supper was promised by placard. Of course the meetings were given up. Now, contrast the other side of the question. The meeting of last evening was announced for half-past six o'clock, and the largest room in the town was un able to contain the crowd desirous of listening to thegenuine English sentiments of Messrs. Mackenzie and Turner. Before the hour appointed, the room was more than half filled. Many of their friends, however, were waiting to receive the candidates at the ferry, and escorted them to the rooms ; and, but for the interference of the police, would have drawn their carriages to the rooms, and back again to the ferry after the meeting. Immediately after their arrival, the room was crowded in every part. On the motion of Mr. R. HUGHES, P. M. Dove, Esq., was called to the chair. The CHAIRMAN, in an eloquent speech, introduced the candidates to the meeting. Their reception was of the most enthusiastic descrip tion, and the enunciation of their truly English and constitutional sentiments elicited from their audience a response so warm and cheering as must have convinced the few Radicals and Papists present how deeply rooted genuine honest principles are in the hearts of true Britons. We have not room for even an epitome of the speeches, but this is the less necessary, as their sentiments are so well known, and will no doubt be fully appreciated by the people of Liverpool before tomorrow's sun has sunk beneath the western wave. Suffice it to say, that we heard more than one elector declare that the result of the meeting had changed his opinion. MR. J. NELSON WOOD, as an old freeman of Liverpool resident in Cheshire, moved—" That this meeting having heard with satisfaction the political sentiments of Messrs. Mackenzie and Turner, do hereby pledge themselves to d 3 all in their power to secure their return at the ensuing election." Lieutenant HOOKEY, IL N., seconded the motion, observing that as an old sailor he cordially agreed with the sentiments enunciated by the candidates. He bad, he said, been all his life a sailor, he had been in every port of the globe, and fettered and encumbered as British shipping now was, he felt con vinced it was impossible for it to compete with the foreigner. (Loud cheers.) The motion was then put and carried, only four boys holding up their hands against it. Captain COOK then moved a vote of thanks to the chair man, which was seconded by Mr. Mackenzie, and carried with enthusiasm. Three times three were then given for the candidates, for the Earl of Derby, and for Protestantism, and three groans for Cardwell and the Pope. SUPPOSED MURDER AT BIRKENHEAD. An inquest was held yesterday afternoon, at Mr. Davis's, the Angel Hotel, Birkenhead, before Henry Churton, Esq., coroner for Cheshire, on view of the body of Wil liam Geen, a sailor belonging to the brig George, in the Birkenhead docks. A person named Martin Burns is in custody, supposed to be implicated in the affair, and was yesterday examined before the magistrates, but remanded until after the inquest. The first witness called was Wm. Bradshaw, who stated that on Sunday morning he was on duty, about a quarter-past one o'clock, in Beckwith-street, when he saw the body of a man lying against the wall. On examination, found he was dead, but the body was warm. Lifted up his head, and then perceived blood oozing from the mouth. He knocked for assistance, and had the body removed to the saddle room at the Angel Hotel. His hat was lying near the body. John Fazackerley, labourer, living in Birkenhead, stated that on Saturday night he saw the deceased about seven o'clock. Witness met him in Park-street, and walked along with him down to the car stand at Woodside. The deceased spoke to witness first. They went to Coglan's public-house, and had three glasses of ale each. After that went with him to get shaved at Sweetman's, in Albion-street, and from thence to the Globe Vaults, where they had two glasses of ale each. Deceased then wished for a little more amusement, and witness took him to Mrs. Horner's, in Brook-street. They had a good deal of drink there, and there was singing and dancing until closing time (eleven o'clock). They then walked along the street, witness assisting deceased down the steps of the house. Witness, the deceased, and about four young men, then went to the Prince Albert. After they got there, witness paid for two quarts of ale, and they remained there until twelve o'clock. Witness left the deceased standing outside the door of the house, along with one of the parties who had been inside, and did not see him again. The deceased was then drunk. There was no quarrelling, and he did not fall or receive i any blow. Sarah Jones, servant, stated that she was standing at the door of Mr. Milner, in Park-street, with her aunt, at half-past twelve o'clock. She saw a sailor pass the door. There were several people standing in the street, at the corner of Oak-stree, one of whom ran after him and knocked him down. The witness also stated that a Mrs. Christian, whom she knew, went up to the deceased, assisted him to rise, and advised him to go home. Her evidence was corroborated by that of her aunt. Mrs. Christian was then called, and she swore most positively that she had never seen the deceased ; that no such transaction, as that deposed to by the last two wit nesses, took place, and that, in fact, she was in bed at the time. The witness was then confronted with the two former witnesses, who most positively swore that she was the person alluded to by there, and that she had been known to them for the last two years. The Coroner and Jury expressed their surprise at the conflicting nature of the evidence of the last witnesses, and it was agreed to adjourn the inquest fora week, in order to give time to the pollee to make enquiries. Pre vious to this, however, the Coroner took the evidence of Mr. Jennette, surgeon, who had made a post mortem examination of the deceased, and who stated that he was of opinion that the immediate cause of death arose from the effects of external violence—a blow on the left side of the head. A FOREIGNER, speaking of the House of Commons, says.-- • "So difficult is it for anything to be heard inside its gorgeous walls, that the impatient members are obliged to be continually calling out, ' Hear !
