SEWERAGE IN CASTLE STREET, &c.—A good deal of public curiosity has recently been excited by the sewering operations under Castle-street, decidedly the most cen tral business street in our town, being between the Cus tom-house, facing the south end of the same line, and our noble Town-hall facing its north extremity, both surrounded by cupulas. The whole of this work has been accomplished by tunnelling, for effecting which numerous " eyes," or wells, were sunk to a considerable depth. Fine bard red freestone was met with throughout, and the blasting of the rock sent forth frequent loud re ports for these several mouths. The depth of the tun nelling near the exchange is, we are informed, 32 feet from the surface of the street. A. similar operation is progressing towards completon under the top of Cook street, leading east from Castle -street, where the depth, owing to the inequality of the ground, is about 20 feet 10 inches. This subterranean " bore" is for the purpose of effectually draining the story underground, or cellar age, of the two new banks about to be built at the two opposite corners of Cook-street, nearly opposite Bruns wick-street.

TUESDAY MORNING, SEPT. 2, 1845 The " small cloud in the western horizon," which procured for Ireland the fulfilment of Sir Robert Peel's " message of peace," by the passing of the Maynooth Endowment Bill, has once more shown itself ; but, on this occasion, it does not threaten England. It comes now in the shape of an anti cipated war between the United States and Mexico, the annexation of Texas being the cause of quarrel ; and whether it is destined to he fought out on a grand scale, or to result in mere vapourmg on the side of one or both of the be.ligerents, it may pos sibly be the means of partially solving a very im portant question for Europe—viz., the capability of the government of the United States for the con duct of warlike operations, on such a scale as would be required to enable it to make good its somewhat swaggering pretensions, against any great, or even second-rate, power. We do not purpoie here to enter at any length into the merits of the quarrel between the two countries, although it certainly appears to us that Mexico has just right to complain of the conduct of her aggressive neighbour, and will certainly re ceive the sympathy, if not the direct aid, of some of the states of Europe. Upon this may, in a great measure, depend the duration of the struggle. In treating, however, of the probable result and of the extent to which the energies of the United anghae for States may probably be called out, we must neces sarily give a glance at the position of both belli vbell, from part o f th e gerents. Mexico, in the first place is not strong in is and the either warlike materials or money. But she is strong in position, and not very assailable to that peculiar description of warfare in which the frontier population of the United States excel, and have oc casionally used with affect against ourselves in our Canadian possessions. America can effect little in the way of hostile incursion from. her southern states, where she is hampered with the existence of her slave system ; and she must therefore be driven 5 to operations from the gulf of Mexico and the 1 8 Aug Pacific. Such operations, however, involve on her June part the necessity of large supplies of mon e y , whilst Aug .. 1412 Mexico, acting upon the defensive and aided b y July the militias, which her government has called June es out, can meet at all points the assaults of her July 26 opponent, and, if not made in great force, and at July 1 a cost almost ruinous, very possibly repel them. At all events, she may protract the strug gle sufficiently long to drive the keen witted citizens of the northern and western states to en -44 quire whether the acquisition of Texas is a sufficient 4 object to them, whatever it may be to the slave 7 holding states of the south, lo submit them to the 195 tnyation which will he called for, and to bear wit, patience the loss sure to be inflicted upon their commerce by the protraction of hostilities. America, we must bear in mind, is not now in the position which she occupied when she battled with us through the War of Independence, or du ring our last encounter with her from 1814 to 1816. She has a large merchant marine in every sea. Her -haling trade is especially open to the reprisals of - .

Ayres 23 Mar ',is °5 To THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD TO CORRESPONDENTS A respectable inhabitant of Queen-square informs us, (and we can bear witness to the fact,) that the streets in the neigh bourhood of St. John's Market. and Queen -square in parti cular, are almost daily in a most filthy state, from the refuse, &c.. left by the carts frequenting the market, the rubbish being often left to accumulate for a day, instead of being cleared away early in the forenoon. We have also to remark, that, notwithstanding the general complaints for upwards of twelve months, the north west corner of the vacant ground at the too of Roe-street, and immediately opposite the south end of the New Assize Courts, is allowed to be a place of de posit for all sorts of noxious matters, the feetid n attar from which exudes in wet weather upon the footwalk. Surely these nuisances may readily be obviated,—as well as the an noyance on the footwalk on the north side of the Market, which is gelerally strewed with green leaves of vegetables, &c., which render it absolutely unsafe for pedestrians, who, on treading upon these substances, are liable to fall, or to suffer a disagreeable shock by slipping. "A Pedestrian" complains that, during rains, persons passing along our principal streets are subjected to being drenched by the heavy drops from projecting Grecian and other cor nice on buildings public and private, as well as from the broad ledges of shop fronts. Would it not be well if the au thorities were, in their next local improvement act, to intro duce a clause requiring all such projections to be provided with a small (but sufficient) spout or gutter at their outward edge, with a descending pipe to carry the water, under the footwalk, into the channel. As it is, the large continuous drops. from the eaves of high build in g s especially, are, on r eaching the flags, dashed over the feet and legs of passen gers, and tend, moreover , to soil the walls and paint-work below, well as to damage goods exposed near or within shop entrances. itibuToot Otanbauti. CHURCH EDUCATION SOCIETY FOR IRELAND THE PAST WEEK'S RAILWAY FRENZY There really appears to us to be something in our pre sent system of managing railway investments, which pre cludes the possibility of anything like a safe and steady business being transacted.' The week before last our specu lators and holders were verging upon a panic. Every one was preparing to wash his hands of scrip and of stock, and to throw to the winds the prospects of new shares and premiums. A few fine days, however, have intervened ; and we see them rushing forthwith to the opposite ex treme. Despair has been converted into speculative frenzy. Nothing, now, the speculator can touch—no scheme, however to!cl and barren, is launched upon the market, which does not forthwith rush to a premium, as extravagant as it is certain to melt away as soon as men cool down into their natural senses. And yet, few seem to dream of there occurring even a pause in the up ward tendency of things—much less a reverse. The majority act as if the possibility of ultimate loss was a fa tality which, though possible, they are themselvess insured against. This state of things cannot be permitted to go on, without bringing about serious danger and ruin to many. Prudent men, prepared to make good their purchases, must eventually be driven to withdraw from the market, and leave those very wild people, who are just now press ing forward to grasp every thing that offers in the shape of railway investment, to sustain the mad prices which they have contributed to establish. The task, perhaps, may not be found so easy as they imagine. Fine weather alone, won't make railways. It won't unloose the purse strings of capitalists. It won't even sustain prices at their present level for about a week or two, unless men of prudence and actual means are allowed to occupy their natural position. To bring about the termination of the present fever of speculation, which is unnatural and un sound, the respectable brokers must throw themselves into the breach, by discountenancing every kind of dealing which is not based upon a proper and a stable foundation. We are glad to observe from the following circular, which has just been issued by Messrs. Scholes and Hors fall, that the first step in such a course has been already taken : A Public Meeting was held in the Music-hall, last night, for the purpose of hearing an explanation of the objects and prospects of " The Church Education Society of Ireland,' from a deputation of clergymen, previously to the formation of an auxiliary institution in this town. The meeting was most numerously attended by clerical and lay gentlemen, active supporters of the great principle of scriptural and religious education. Each person on entering the room was presented with a printed paper, briefly explanatory of the nature of the society, and of its actual condition. We extract the following passages : " The object of this society is to afford to all children attend ing its schools, in addition to an improved system of secular education, instruction in the Holy Scriptures out of the autho rized version, and under the direction of the Parochial Clergy; and to the children of the Church, further instruction in the Catechism and other formularies of the Church. No child can be excluded from any of the society's schools on account of the inability of its parents to pay for its tuition. There are at pre sent in connection with the society, 1,812 sehools, having 1 , '4,968 children on the rolls, of whom 13,668 are Protestant Dissenters, and 32,634 Roman Catholics. This fact may be sufficient to prove, that the system of education provided by the society, is, to a considerable extent, acceptable to persons cf all denominations." The Rev. Dr. TATTERSHALL was called to the chair, and after prayer had been offered by the Rev. Wr. Falloon, the Rev. Chairman remarked that the title of the society was an indication of the nature of its operations. It was a society under the patronage of the greater part of the Episcopal bench in Ireland, and its proceedings thus far had been attended with signal success, such as betokened a blessing from above. He had now to proclaim, for the first time in his life, that be was a decided friend to le li gious education—(hear)—for he could not account any education to deserve the name which was not based upon the word of God. (Cheers.) We gave power by means of instruction in secular things ; but power could not be rightly decided unless it were decided by the word of Him who was the author of every good thing. (Hear.) He fel , a very interest in the religious educa ion of the youth of Ireland ; to use a phrase common in other connexions, he was a warm friend to " justice to Ireland," but he did not think thatjustice would be done to Ireland if her youth were debarred from religious education,—education pro perly religious, and grounded upon the true and pure word of God. (Cheers.) The Rev. Chairman concluded by stating that he should greatly rejoice if the proceedings of the evening were to prove the commencimaent of an active auxiliary in this town to the Church Education Society for Ireland. (Hear.) The Rev. J. H. STEWART, after a few remarks illus trative of the grounds upon which he supported the views of this society' introduced The Rev. HAMILTON VERSCHOGLES. of Dublin. who delivered an able address, remarking that Liverpool had already put forth her energy in support of religious education in Ireland. But it must be observed that the I'M society which had already an auxiliary here, confined its labours to a comparatively small portion of the Irish population, namely, to those who spoke the Irish language. Two millions of the people of Ireland spoke the Irish language, and that society successfully and happily reached the hearts of many of them through the medium of their own tongue ; but there were at least four millions of the population not acquainted with the native language. As to the adults among those four millions, (FOURTH NOTICE.) he was obliged to say it was hard to read their hearts, During the last seven days, the weather, which bad or even their ears, in the way of communicating spiritual previously been wet and inauspicious, has been highly instruction, their minds were so preoccupied and kindled favourable for the harvest. Yesterday week much rain u p by p o litical prejudices; but there were hopes of the fell in this district, but though heavy here and in the im children of this portion of the population. (Hear.)

The rev. gentleman impressed upon his hearers. for an hour, in the most energetic manner, the vast importance of a strictly religious education for the children of the poor.—ln the afternoon he preached from the 89th Psalm, ver. 15, " Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound." He pleaded earnestly for up wards of 800 poor children, the lambs of Christ's fold ; and after the most perfect specimens of pulpit eloquence, collections were made amounting to upwards of £5O. POLICE COURT, YESTERDAY.—There was no case of the ~ lightest public importance brought before Mr. Rush ton. The very fine weather, or something else not easy to be divined, must have given the usual corps of offen ders a pause, or perhaps have induced them to betake themselves to the country, in imitation of their betters, who have gone a-partridge-shooting—yesterday being the commencement of the season. Our stipendiary bad evi dently a sinecure office for a time, and did not appear to be over well pleased at such remission of his usual duties. A number of prisoners having been placed before him, seriatim, for disorderly conduct in the streets, he remarked, that out of 10-1 cases, seventy-two were for drunkenness, or slight crimes arising out of it ; that such a state of things was perfectly frightful ; and that be should therefore fine every one of them, — which he did at the rate of 5s a bead. About noon, there being no further business to transact, but to dispose of a few small assault cases (to begin at one o'clock ,) he re tired to the Exchange flags to " rusticate" during the in terregnum. A MAN UNKNOWN FOUND DROWNED.—EarIy yes terday morning, the body of a man unknown was found in the river, under the wall of Messrs. Vernon and Co.'s ship-building yard, near the Potteries. The deceased ap ,eared to he about forty years of age, and, from his dress. was probably a respectable mechanic or tradesman. His dress was a fine black coat, black figured silk waistcoat and striped trowsers. He was well made, had an aqui line nose, and was about 5 feet 10 inches in height. On his person was found a verge watch, which had stopped at 10 minutes past 12 o'clock. The watch paper bore the name of Thos. Blundell, Upper Pitt-street, Liverpool, who states that he repaired the watch in March, IS4I, for a person who gave his name as Collins, from Cork. Another watch paper was dated Park-street, Cork ; and on a bit of ivory, or bone, also found on the body, was inscribed the name of Wm. Forshaw. On the evening of the day on which the Queen prorrgucd Parliament, she embarked at Woolwich for a continental tour.

It ap peared the girl had quarrelled with her mistress, and left her place, when she applied to the defendant to obtain her clothes and the wages which were due. Mr. Wardle, as an answer to the charge, handed up a bill to the court for £1 15s. id., and produced a dress belonging to the com plainant. It was also stated that he had received LI of the wages.
