The Liverpool Standard and General Commercial Advertiser. — Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1852-11-16 00:00:00

~~bEriaoZ TUESDAY MORNING, NOV. 16, 1852. THE WEEK. OUR respected townsman, Mr. SAMUEL HOLME, was, on Tuesday last, elected as Mayor of Liver- pool ; and, what is more, his election was unani- mous, notwithstanding the suggestions of opposition indulged in by certain of our contemporaries, who have become very aristocratic of late, and affect a dread of the dignity of the Town being lowered by a tradesman sitting as its chief magistrate. If there he one feature in our Constitutional system more strongly marked than another, or more prized by honest Englishmen and patriots, it is this :—that it throws open to merit and successful industry, however humble may have been the commencement of their career, the road not only to Civic honours, but to the highest offices of the State. Yet, the journals who have sought to deprive Mr. HOLME of the well-earned reward of valuable services rendered to the town, with one unworthy exception, are " liberals" of the first water—advocates of popular representation, and loud railers against oligarchies and clique domination. We rejoice, therefore, at Mr. HOLME'S election, as a compliance with the genius of our institutions, although on every other ground of high character, integrity, and his posses sion of a thorough practical knowledge of the re quirements of his fellow-Townsmen, we do not know any gentleman more fitted to fulfil satisfac torily the duties of his office. Our Manchester neighbours are generally reputed to be an eminently practical people, yet they occa sionally blow bubbles, which burst before their eyes. Such appears to have been recently the fate of an institution, called " the Manchester Day Nur- ery," which was originated about a couple of years go with a vast amount of philanthropic profession. :he real object of the promoters of this "day nor cry" was to provide a central receptacle for the is, who were ie intervals of em the neces- stem was to ►afty bottle; and to be kept fast g frame, by the thought that their offspring were enjoying advan tages equal to those offered by a " slave-raising" establishment in Virginia or Kentucky. In a pecu niary point of view the establishment has proved a failure. From a recent report by the registrar for Ancoats district we find that, mothers employed in factories prefer leaving their offspring in the care of those of their own blood. To this bigotted and ignorant obstinacy on their part—not at all, of ^ourse, to the fact of their mothers being compelled 'o leave unperformed their natural duties towards heir infant offspring—we are told by the report n question to attribute in a great measure the fact hat in the Ancoats registration district, during the luarter ended 30th September last, out of 547 deaths, no less than 343 were under two years of age ! Truly, cotton spinning, as well as cotton growing, has much to do with human suffering and degradation 1 We want a Mrs. BEECIIER STOWE in our manufacturing districts. On Thursday next the remains of the lamented Duke of WELLINGTON will be deposited in their last resting-place in St. Paul's Cathedral; and we observe that it is the wish of the authorities in this town that the solemn occasion should be marked, io far as is practicable,by a total cessation of business on the part of the inhabitants. It is probable that the day will be observed as a holiday throughout the kingdom, and it is obvious, from the fact that a short Bill is to be passed through Parliament for the purpose of obviating any difficulties as to the payment of drafts, &c., due on that day, that a desire is entertained in the highest quarters that the tribute of respect thus paid to the departed hero should be emphatically a national one. We trust that the loyal people of Liverpool will not be behind any other community in giving up a day for a pur pose so laudable. On Saturday last, as will be seen from a para graph in another column, a robbery was effected from the counter of the Bank of England in this town to the large amount of £3,000. A few days previously £BOO were obtained in the same esta blishment by the light-fingered gentry ; and on Sa turday week a gentleman who had to pay in a con siderable sum, consisting of notes and £3O in gold, had the latter extracted during the few moments that his hand was withdrawn from the pocket which held it to draw up the particulars of the payment. In fact, the Bank appears to be infested by sharpers of the most adroit kind—first-class practitioners, who must be tolerably well " made up" to be mis taken for parties likely to have legitimate business to transact with the establishment. Such a state of things ought not to be permitted to continue. The Bank ought surely to take some steps to pro tect its customers from these frequent robberies. We understand that the board do provide occa sionally the attendance of a policeman during the press of business on Saturdays ; but the true remedy is the constant attendance of a detective officer, to whom the persons of the members of the swell mob are familiar ; and it might be even desirable to attach some such officer permanently to the establishment, as hall. porter in livery, or in a similar capacity. The mercantile community have long felt the danger of encountering the crush at the counter at busy periods, and they will, after these serious robberies, have much more cause to do so. FOREIGN NEWS AMERICA ARRIVAL OF THE BALTIC The United States mail steam-ship Baltic, Captain Comstock, arrived in thellersey , on Wednesday afternoon, from New York direct, from which port she sailed at noon on the 30th ult., with 105 passengers and .8'50,000 in specie on freight. The U.S.M.S. Washington arrived at New York, with the mails from Southampton, on the 27th ult., and on her arrival was seized by the United States marshal, and her captain and chief officer placed under arrest for smuggling. They were afterwards admitted to bail. The most striking item of news brought by this arrival is the funeral of Mr. Webster, which took place at Marshfield on the 29th ult., in a manner entirely consonant with the last wishes of the illustrious deceased. Throughout the entire Union the people manifested the most profound sorrow ; the bitterness of political strife appeared to be suspended by universal consent, and in the principal towns the buildings were mostly draped in black, and business was entirely suspended. The funeral was attended by General Pierce and several of the leading members of Congress. Two arrivals had taken place from California—the Falcon, which arrived at New Orleans on the 27th, with 300,000 dols in gold, and the Georgia, which arrived in New York on the 29th ult., with 2,000,000 dols in dust. I nn umerable murders and robberies at the gold mines were reported, and several predatory attacks of the neigh bouring Indians have been repulsed. Alining intelligence satisfactory. CANADA—Great excitement has been suddenly pro duced at Quebec, in consequence of several deaths having occurred from cholera. A member of parliament and a messenger of the house having died, it is thought that the legislature will be immediately adjourned. The g overnor of New Brunswick, in his speech on the opening of the - egislature of that province, strongly urges the adopti on 1 secure the speedy construction of American railway. of such measures the European a: WEST INDIES.—Late accounts from Bermuda and St. Thomas represent the September storm as having been extremely disastrous in the vicinity of those islands. The British brigs Waterloo and R. H. Parke, and American brig Rainbow, were greatly damaged by the gale. A flood on the south side of Bermuda is reported to have destroyed 200 lives. TURKEY.—Accounts from Constantinople of the 2Gth ult. state that the finance question continues to absorb the attention of the Turkish Government. The Ministers perceive how important it is for the credit of Turkey to prove that, in refusing to ratify the loan, they have not acted with levity, and were sure of being able to prpyide for theinut4 of the present mQuitot, REVOLUTION IN BUENOS AYRES. By the Royal Mail Stearn-ship Severn we have accounts of a fresh revolution in Buenos Ayres, and of the over throw of the power of General Urquiza in that province. The particulars are contained in the following letter, dated Buenos Avres, October 2:— " On the Bth of S.‘ptember, General Urquiza left for Santa Fe, to instal the Constituent Congress, providen tially taking with him a considerable number of the de puties elect, and leaving General GAlan with 4.000 or 5,000 Entrerianos and Correntinos to keep the Buenos Ayreans in order. The latter had made no great secret of their dissatisfaction, and found some of 13:-quiza's most influential chiefs ripe for a revolt. On the morning of the 11th, the people and a part of the army fraternized, and declared the reign of the hero of Caseros at an end, in this quarter at least. " General Galan prayed true to his trust, and was partly compelled, partly allowed, to retire by land with some 2,000 of his followers who stuck by him. General lirquiza has retired all his forces to Entrerios, and says he will have nothing more to do with us, though he is de. termined to instal the Congress and constitute the Re public; accordingly he has notified all the foreign agents and consuls to treat him as representative of the national affairs. A civil war, or ade facto dismemberment of the Confederation, seems the only alternative. " The Buenos Ayreans are in good earnest, and Fede ralists and Unitarians are all united, heart and hand, against Urquiza. Whether they continue so united as to form a strong and stable provincial government is a differ ent question. In the meantime, our hopes of a national organization are indefinitely postponed, and business sadly deranged. "We have not yet had time to hear how the news has been received by the interior provinces. It is probable that several of the governors may adhere to General Ur quiza, while the sympathies of the communities must be in favour of Buenos Ayres." INDIA OVERLAND MAIL We have intelligence by the overland mail from Bombay to the 16th ult. The intelligence comes down to the 26th of September. The whole of the first division, consisting of the 18th Royal Irish, Her Majesty's 80th, the 35th Madras Native Infantry, and a field battery with two 8-inch howitzers, and details of Sappers and Miners, had, as expected, left Rangoon for Procne ; General Godwin, with a company of the 4th battalion of artillery, having left in the steamer Proserpine on the 24th. The second brigade would follow in three or four weeks. The General, Admiral, Commodore, Sir John Cheape, and nearly all the heads of departments, had gone on. A rumour had been spread that a force of 40,000 Burmese intended attacking Rangoon on the night: of the 30th ult., and although the story was looked on as merely an idle tale, all proper precautions to guard against surprise had been directed to he made. It was expected that the fleet with the advanced portion of the army of Ava would reach Prime by the 31 or 4th of October, and that a messenger from the King of Ava would there meet the General to propose terms of amity arid peace. The statements from Burrnah continue uniformly to the effect that the people of Pegu require only to be told • that we are willing to accept their country to tender their allegiance, and that our retreat will be the signal for the most frightlul cruelties being inflicted on them by the Burmese. Lord Falkland reached the hills on the 6th ; by the 6th of November he is looked for at the Presidency, to meet the new Commander-in-Chief. The money-market continues glutted, and the trade of the port has been brisk during the fortnight. FOREIGN MISCELLANY —There is a report that the Senates-consultum, as originally proposed, contained a clause nominating Prince Jerome to the succession in the event of Louis Napoleon dying without issue, and this report was con firmed by an alleged cony of the document which was published in the Belgian papers. However, the Senatus consultuin appeared on Monday, omitting the name of Jerome, and simply giving Louis Napoleon the power to adopt any of the direct descendants of the brothers of the Emperor Napoleon. This has arisen from the great un popularity of Jerome and his son, and he is so offended at the exclusion that he has resigned his office of President of the Senate, and returned to his Governorship of the Invalides. The Senatus consultum provides for an appeal t) the French people. It was presented to Louis Napo leon by the first Vice-President of the Senate, to whom he made the following reply :--" Messieurs les Senateurs. —I thank the Senate for the readiness with which it has responded to the wishes of the country, in deliberating on the re-establishment of the Empire, and in drawing up the Senatus-cousulturn which is to be submitted to the ac ceptance of the people. When 48 years since, in this same palace, in this same room, and under analogous circum stances, the Senate came to offer the crown to the chief of my family, the Emperor replied in these memorable words - My spirit will be with my posterity from the day when it shall cease to merit the love and the confidence of the great nation.' What now most affects my heart is the thought that the spirit of the Emperor is with me, that his ideas guide me, that his shade protects me, since by a solemn proceeding you come, in the name of the French people, to prove to me that I have merited the confidence of the couatry. It is not necessary for me to tell you that my constant pre-occupation will be to labour with you to promote the grandeur and prosperity of France." —On Monday, Abd-el-Kader visited St. Cloud, and took his leave of the President. The Emir returns to Amboise, where he will reside for a short time.—A decree con vokes the French people on the 21st and 22d of No vember to accept or reject the plebiscite. The voting will take place by a scrulin secret, by Yes or No. The verification of the votes will be made by the Corps Legislatif, which is convoked for the 25th of No vember. The provincial journals are filled with procla mations and addresses from the prefects stimulating the zeal of the partizans of the empire ; and it appears that they are resorting to all possible means, fair or unfair, of swelling the number of votes. In Paris there is more calm—there being nothing like enthusiasm for the empire, though little show of opposition is anticipated.—Letters from Lyons state that the principal silk manufactories in that place are fully occupied. Velvets, the production of which generally ceases in October, are still in course of being manufactured. The rate of wages continues low. FRANCE ALGERIA.-It is reported that Prince Napoleon Buona parte, son of Prince Jerome, will be the new governor of Algeria. SPAIN.-A Seville journal states that the infant daugh ter of the Duchess de Montpensier had received the fol lowing names :—Maria Christina, Francisca de Paula, Antonia, Luisa, Fernanda, Amelia, Felipa. Isabel, Ade hiida, Teresa. Josefa, Joaquina, Justa, Rufina, Lutgarda, Elena, Carolina, Bibiana, Polonia, Gaspara, Melchosa, Ana, Baltasara, Agueda, Lucia, and Narcisa. A shock of an earthquake had been felt at Malaga, which spread general consternation among the inhabitants of that city. At half-past one o'clock, a.m., strong oscillations shook all the edifices. The people immediately sallied out of their houses, and sought refuge at La Alameda and in the public squares. Fortunately, the shock was not renewed. The temperature was suffocating. PORTUGAL.—We have intelligence from Lisbon to the 9th instant. The electoral proceedings were going on quietly. and the Government seemed to have every chance of an important majority, unless a threatened junction of the Ultra-Septembrists and Cabralists should take place. M. Emilio Cabral, a brother of Count Thomar, had been shot, but politics had nothing to do with the assassination. BELGlum.—The ministers have laid before the Cham ber of Representatives a bill for the punishment of offences by the press towards foreign governments, and extends to discourses or cries in public assemblies. It has created some excitement. AUSTRIA.—The Emperor will not be able to send en officer to carry a marshal's baton at the funeral of the Duke of Wellington, inasmuch as Austrian marshals have no baton. The Emperor and his army have, how ever, done so much to mark their respect for the Duke, that they can hardly regret being deprived of this oppor tunity of repeating it, and they will thus be secure from any affront to the Austrian uniform from the Austrian refugees in London—by a repetition of such scenes as the attack on Marshal Haynau, or the ovations to Mons. Kossuth.—Despatches from Prague announce that the ex- Emperor of Austria has been struck with epileptic apo plexy, and that be has received the last sacraments. MADAME ScuuTz.—The foreign papers announce - the recent death of Madame Oldosi-Schutz, well known as a singer of the fine vocal school of Italy, and that of Signor Port), who for some seasons sang on our opera stage with Madame Pasta. THE PRESIDENT of the French Republic has sent a number of articles of jewellery to the sub-prefect of Sceaux, to be distributed amongst the young girls of Gen tilly, who came forward to compliment him when he ar rived in Paris on the 16th ult. ITALIAN Boys.—The Duke of Parma has issued a de cree against the emigration of boys from his dominions for the purpose of being emplot ed as white-mice boys, &c. His subjects in foreign countries employing such boys are commanded to restore them to their homes. THE LATE DUJeE. — A miniature of the Duke of Wel lington, painted by Isabey, in 1818, was sold last week at the Countess d'Hijars' property at Versailles, for the enor mous price of 10,601 f. The Marquis of Hertford was the purchaser, after a very sharp competition. .Aen-EL-KADER.—The Heraldo of Madrid states that a report is current there of its being the intention of Ahd el Kader to visit Spain before he goes to Broussa, for the purpose of seeing the palaces and other buildings which were erected under the reign of the Moors. _ THE MADIAT.—Lord Roden obtained permission, but with greet difficulty, to see Rosa Madiai, who is in a prison at Lucca, surrounded by the lowest and most de graded class of her own sex. In the way of indulgence she has been allowed, as a substitute for coffee, a luxury formerly prohibited, a compound of water and grated bread, flavoured with oil. Francesco Madiai is at Vol terra, where his health has been so much impaired that he is now in the infirmary of the prison. DREADFUL SHIPWRECK.—The Oxefea, Mr. Smith, master, arrived at Queenstown, Cork, from New Orleans, reports that on the 16th September, while in the Gulf of Mexico, they fell in with the wreck of the American vessel Mount Vernon, and succeeded in taking off six un fortunate creatures, who had been exposed to the most terrible amount of suffering. They were almost starved to death, having been clinging to the sides of the wreck for six entire days without the least provisions or water. They learnt that the remainder of the crew with some of the passengers, in all twelve, had perished. The six sur vivors were put on board the Superior, which was bound for America, and which would convey them to their native country. Information has also been communicated of the washing up at Arklow of a large quantity of wreck, which had led to a belief that a ship of 1,000 tons had been lost on the coast during the late gales, and that all on board had perished. GOLD IN CANADA.—A letter received by the America, dated New York, October 26. says :—" You are aware that small particles of gold have been found in the neighbour hood of Quebec for several years past ; but our Canadian gold diggings are now likely to come into notice. has a mine of his own, and I have lately had several letters from him on the subject. He writes, on the 23d of October, —` Great discoveries have been made at the gold mines, since I wrote to you on the 16th. A gold-bearing vein, of six feet in width, has been found by the Chaudiere Min ing Company, in De Lery's seigniory, with a promise of being very rich. Dr. Douglas, who has an interest in the company, has just returned to Quebec with about 401 b. weight of gold, value £2,000 ; and a ' habitant,' the other day, picked up a lump of gold weighing 1411 b. This vein is a few mites lower down the river than my location ; but there are a great many veins of quartz within my privilege, and I have very little doubt some of them will be found to contain the melons metal. has seen the vein, and got a specimen from it ; and I have not the least doubt of what I have told you in regard to its being perfectly cor rect. At my own diggings I have 30 men working, who are doing well for me,—more than paying double the amount of wages. THE GOLD COUNTRY.—A letter from Adelaide, dated 15th July, says :—" The condition of this colony at the present moment is very peculiar. Six months ago it ap peared to be on the brink of bankruptcy—money drained off, property worthless, population gone. Now it is wealthier than, perhaps, at any period since its founda tion ; landed and leasehold properties are higher in value than they were before the panic, and the people have returned. More than £700,000 has been added to the available capital of the community within the last four months, - yet ao perceptible effect upon the rate of interest has been produced. The value of money is still from £l5 to £25 per cent. per annum. The greater part of the capital in the hands of persons accustomed to use it is employed in the purchase of gold, on which very large profits are realised ; while the wealth of new capitalists— the successful dhzgers—lies dormant in the banks or in the pockets of the owners. There is, consequently, very little room for enterprise, and very little demand for labour, excepting by the shopkeepers ; and, on the other hand, there are very few labourers to be obtained. The bulk of the working populati rn—the mechanics, shepherds, and day-labourers—though they have returned from the dig gings for the winter, will not work ; for if they have realised a few pounds at the gold fields, they are " living upon their means," and, if not, they contrive to exist upon their anticipations of success in their next trip. Money circulates freely, but the stream flows in a direc tion reverse to its ordinary current. Instead of rising from the coffers of the w.eilthier classes, and flowing either directly or by various media into the pocketslof the labour ing people, by them to he re-distributed among the mer cantile classes, it starts from the working class, and flows upward into the already overfull fountains of capital. No public works are in progress—scarcely any for private persons ; nothing is done but buying and selling. The people usually denominated labourers are enjoying holy day—the otium sine dignilale ; the merchants and store keepers, shipping-agents, and others employed in supply ing necessaries, including therein many things not ordi narily so called, such as silks and jewellery, are reaping rich harvests. LATEST INTELLIGENCE [BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.] HOUSE OF LORDS.-MONDAY Their Lordships assembled at five o'clock. The Earl of DERBY moved the suspension of the stand ing orders, in order to pass a bill to make Thursday, the day appointed for the Dnke of Wellington's funera!, the same as a Sunday with respect to bills of exchange; and moved the first reading of the bill for that purpose. In reply to the Duke of CLEVELAND, The Earl of DERBY stated he had no doubt that every facility would be afforded to their Lordships at the fune ral ceremony, and moved the appointment of a committee to carry out the reeommendations of Her Majesty's Go vernment with respect to the funeral of the Duke of Wellington. The Earl of DERBY moved the adoption of an address to her Majesty, thanking her Majesty for giving directions for the interment of the Duke of 'Wellington. Motion agreed to. _ Lord BROUGRAM presented a petition from Jamaica, praying for more stringent measures for repressing the slave trade. On the motion of the Marqnis of CLANRICARDE, a select committee was appointed to enquire into the accommodation of the House. PRUSSIA.—The Chambers will meet, it is believed, on the 29th, though the day has not yet been definitively fixed. In the several Ministerial departments the mea sures to be proposed to the Chambers are being prepared. A conference was held on Saturday between the President of the Cabinet and the Ministers of Commerce and Finance, on the position of the Zollverein negotiations with Olden. burg, Brunswick, and the Thuringian principalities. Prussia undertakes the duty of guarding the frontier of the latter group of States. Their Lordships adjourned at half-past five o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-MONDAY. The SPEAKER took the chair at a quarter before four: PEtt - STA.L-The &Thee excitement continues to prevail at Tehran, and it is calculated that the executions conse quent upon the late attempt on the Shah's life have already amounted to 400 ; many of the conspirators have been cut in twain, others actually roasted alive, some shod with red-hot horse-shoes, and some stoned to death. CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.—We have intelligence from Cape Town to the 11th Sept. A letter from Graham's Town, dated the 4th, says We have no further reports from Kaffraria, and for the present the war seems virtu ally at a stand-still.—The Graham's Town Journal of the 31st of August states that Fort Grey had been twice attacked by the rebel Hottentots, who were repulsed by the garrison. Depredations still continued. Several of the marauders had been shot, and a number wounded and made prisoners. It was said that his excellency intended making Graham's Town his head-quarters. The burgher posts bad been ordered to be reduced, in consequence of the border police force having been organized. HATTI.—The authorities of Hayti have offered very flattering inducements for the emigration to that island of 800 intelligent Americans. EXPENSIVE TOUR.—The money disbursed by Louis Napoleon in his month's tour exceeds thirty-one millions of francs, or a million and a quarter sterling. A number of members were sworn and took their seats Petitions were presented from certain electors of Tam worth, complaining of an undue return for that borough. In answer to a question from Mr. J. B. SMITH, Mr. WALPOLE said he had received no communication from the Archbishop of Canterbury respecting the present sitting of the Convocation, but the usual forms would be observed in respect to the prorogation of that body. Mi. Hume gave notice that, on Friday, he should move a call of the house for Mondey next. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, after this notice, it would be convenient if Mr. Villiers would com municate to the House the exact terms of the notice. Lord STANLEY, in reply to a question, said the atten tion of Government had been directed to the subject of obtaining a reduction of the duty upon English coal into France. There had been communications upon the sub ject between the two Governments, from which it ap peared the Government of France was favourable to the modification of international duties between the two countries. Colonel FORRESTER brought up Her Majesty's answer to the address voted by the house in answer to the speech from the throne. Mr. WALFOLE brought in a bill, which passed through all its stages, and was sent up to the Lords in a few mi. nutes, standing orders being suspended for that purpose, making Thursday next, with respect to all commercial transactions, the same as Sunday, on account of the fu neral of the Duke of Wellington. The Queen's Message with respect to the provision to be made for the Duke of Wellington's funeral was then read, when The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, after a very eloquent speech upon the lamented deceased, moved that an Address be presented to the Queen, assuring her Ma jesty of the ready assistance of the Commons in carrying out any steps for the funs ral. Lord JOHN RUSSELL seconded the motion, which was agreed to. Mr. BROTHERTON brought forward his annual motion, to the effect that the house should not continue sitting after 12 o'clock. Mr. EWART seconded the motion, which was supported by Mr. WILLIAMS, and opposed by Sir H. CLAY. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER opposed the mo tion, on the ground that the business of the house was every year increasing, and that the result of the motion would be injurious to the public business. Mr. Humk supported the measure, which was opposed by Lord J. RUSSELL and Sir H. WILLOUGHBY. Mr. BROTHERTON replied. The house then divided, when there were 64 against, and 60 for the motion, which was therefore negatived. Mr. HERRIES moved the re-appointment of a Select Committee to inquire into the Government of her Ma jesty's Indian dominions. Mr. MACGREGOR trusted that more members from Scotland would be placed on Committee. Motion was then agreed to. Sir BENJAMIN HALL moved that the petition from Derby, complaining of corrupt practices at the late Elec tion, be printed, and gave notice that Sir Alexander Cockburn would bring on his motion on Friday next. Mr. Humk moved for a Return of the Minutes relative to the Sales of Chicory. On the motion of Lord PALMERSTON, a return of the number of Slaves imported into Cuba and the Brazils was ordered. ICE.—The accounts received from the Baltic report the continuance of severe frost and the increase of ice, which threatens to entirely block up the navigation for the season. TRIPOLI.—A frightful hurricane occurred here on the 19th of October, by which serious damage has been done to the shipping. Of 22 vessels in the harbour 16 were wrecked. MARCR OF IMPROVEMENT.—Upon the Venetian canals there are gondolas plying at certain hours in the day, with the word " Omnibus" printed conspicuously upon their black awnings. Mr. HUME also complained of the infringement of the Treaty for the Suppression of Slavery, on the part of Spain ard Portugal. The House adjourned at seven o'clock. NAVIGATION OF THE BALTIC.—The accounts received from the Baltic report the continuance of severe frost and the increase of ice, which threatens to entirely block up the navigation for the season. The Royal Mail steam-ship Europa has not yet ar rived. It was stated yesterday afternoon that she had be n telegraphed off Holyhead at half-past 2 o'clock ; but there must have been some mistake, as, had she been off Holyhead at the hour named, she must have reached the river before four o'clock this morning. Relying on the Telegraph, we calculated upon giving the Europa's news in the whole of our impression, and accordingly an nounced it in Wino of our placard& Baron BILLING, formerly French Minister Plenipoten tiary at Frankfort, has just died suddenly of apoplexy.

ENDOWMENT OF DISTRICT CHURCHES IN LIVERPOOL. AMONG the many important services which the Rev. Dr. APNELLE has rendered to the Church, the following letter, on the subject of the endowment of the district Churches i❑ Liverpool, is by no means the least. With that Chris tian zeal which animates him in the promotion of every good work, lie has awakened a chord which must find a response in the heart of every true Christian. The want only required to be made known, and he has done so in a manner so clear and forcible that we need do no more than publish his letter, which we subjoin : TO THE FRIENDS AND PROMOTERS OF TRUE RELIGION IN THE BOROUGH OF LIVERPOOL CHRISTIAN BRETHREN,—I trust you will feel with me that no apology is needed for addressing you upon a sub ject in which you are so deeply and locally interested. Appeals to your benevolence are numerous : from the neglected afar off; and from the destitute at hand. But Christian sympathy is unwearied ; and while it proves itself genuine in the cause of the Missionary abroad, it will not turn away from the proved necessities of the pastor at home. Liverpool presents features of intense interest to the Christian. It is, confessedly, one of the most itnportant towns in the United Kingdom. A hundred and fifty years ago, it was a mere village. It now contains half a million of inhabitants. The rapidity of its increase, espe cially within the last few years, has been without parallel, even in this wonderful country. Its port is crowded with vessels under every flag, and its commerce extends to all parts of the world. It is, moreover, a town of great religious activity. Within the last five.and-twenty years, five-and-twenty churches have been built, and the call made by the clergy, largely to extend the means of Scriptural education, has been nobly responded to. The clergy are active in ministering to their flocks, superintending their Scripture Readers, Tract Distribu tors, and District Visitors ; and especially in preaching the glorious Gospel of the grace of God. Some of you, to whom I now address myself, have, with praiseworthy zeal, purchased the patronage of several churches, and vested it in trustees of approved fidelity to the Word of God and the Church of England; so that vital religion, in doctrine and practice, is likely to be per petuated in the town. All this is highly gratifying, and calculated to give the most animating encouragement in the maintenance of the beauty and completeness of our spiritual Zion, free from all intrusion of either modern or mediaeval innovations. One thing is wanting ; and I confidently believe that you will adopt wise practical measures to meet the necessity. Many of the churches in the town are unendowed, or hut nominally endowed. Their support, and a provision for their incumbents and curates, depend upon pew rents and voluntary contributions. The wealthier portion of the community, glad to escape the smoke, and dust; and noise of the town, reside in the suburbs, and attend the churches in the neighbourhood of their homes. The con sequence is, that the churches in the heart of the town, surrounded by the densest masses of a poor population, are deprived of their fair shore of such worshippers as could afford to pay liberally for their accommodation. Therefore, pew rents are of necessity at a low figure, and the provision made for the personal comfort and profes sional respectability of the clergy who minister in those churches is far, very far, from what, we feel persuaded, you would desire to see it. Some of our brethren barely live, and that by the utmost economy. At the end of the year, if they can pay the bills presented against them for the indispensable necessities of house, food, and clothing, they bless God and take courage. Sometimes they cannot do this, and have to carry the burden of unpaid bills long and painfully into the new year. And this, too, while themselves and fami lies are blessed with the full glow of health. When pressed by the extra demands inseparable from sickness, they are absolutely destitute. This might suffice. But the subject presses closer still upon some. The poor people who occupy the churches in question are your dependants. They are engaged in business of which you are the principals, and by which you are the gainers. Have they not a claim upon you for something more than merely the stipulated wages without which you could not have their services at all, even as machines ? Have not their immortal souls a claim upon you? And how can you so well respond to that claim as by maintaining among them, in easy independence, their dear pastors, their counsellors in difficulty, their com forters in sorrow, as well as Christ's ambassadors to them with the glad tidings of redeeming love ? The proposal which I venture to submit to you is this — the formation, by subscriptions and donations, of a fund, to he called "The Liverpool Churches Endowment Fund," to be vested in trustees, and by them applied to the aug mentation of the endowments of certain churches in the town—of course on defined principles, and in specified proportions. _ _ It is manifest that, for the accomplishment of this pur pose, an arrangement must be made, the details of whi.th will require much practical wisdom, as well as legal know ledge. But you are quite aware that these can be had, and will be cheerfully exercised, if the scheme so com mend itself as to procure the re4uisite funds. We appeal not here to any coercive law. We discuss not the duty of a Christian state. We enter into no con trast between the established and the voluntary principle. We rather appeal to the example of men of property in the early ages of our Church history. It was the noble exercise of their voluntary liberality which led to perma nent and territorial endowment. As Christianity spread itself in the country, the proprietors of the soil began to build Churches on their demesnes to accommodate the tenants; and in order to have Divine service regularly performed therein, they gave to the officiating minister, and settled by legal entail on his successors for ever, one tenth part of their incomes. Thus, as Blackstone informs us, parishes were gradually formed, and endowed with the tithes that arose within the circuit assigned. But Christianity has now spread far beyond that original provision ; and may we not fairly hold up to the wealthy owners of other descriptions of property than land the example of our ancient English landlords ? Voluntary liberality, on a sufficient scale, would lead now as it did then, to permanent legal endowments and with the hap piests results. - Be persuaded, dear brethren, to use in this truly noble way a portion of your substance. The material things on which the minds of men are so fully set will speedily pass away from us all. Yet a little while, and the happiness of every one of us will depend entirely on spiritual things. The spiritual labourer in things eternal is every way worthy of his material reward in things temporal. In sustaining the shepherd for unembarrassed labour, you are, in the most effectual manner, blessing the flock. With respectful affection towards you all, and kindled zeal and sympathy for our suffering, patient, and laborious brethren, I am, your faithful servant, _ HUGH M'NEILE Aigburth, 9th November, 1852. TERRIFIC FLOODS. BIRMINGHAM.—On Thursday, Birmingham was visited with a most destructive flood. Owing to the heavy and incessant rain, the river Rea, which runs through the lower part of the town, rose to an unusual height between five and half-past seven o'clock. The water, in some parts, rose to between eight and ten feet, and the sur rounding neighbourhood was inundated for some miles — south, west, and north of Birmingham—the fields present ing the appearance of an immense lake. In the neigh bourhood of Balsall-heath and Vaughton's-hole a consi derable amount of property has been destroyed. The streeis connecting the parish of Birmingham with the hamlets of Deritend and Bordesley,. Moseley-street, Cheapside, Bradford-street, and Digbeth, were rendered impassable except by vehicles ; but the most serious in jury was done to the property near the Rea. The works on the immediate banks were flooded and stopped, doing the greatest damage to machinery. The loss to manufac turers located in this neighbourhood will, it is calculated, amount to some thousands of pounds. In Rea-street and the vicinity the inhabitants of the houses were flooded out, or obliged to take refuge in the upper stories. The family . of one poor wo man h a d a narrow escape. A new row of houses has recently been erected, one of which abuts on the river in Mill-lane, in the neighbourhood of Deritend-bridge. About half-past six o'clock a crash was heard, the inmates fled, and the end wall of the house was almost immediately precipitated into the river. The immense flow of water is supposed to come from the hills, and, no doubt, greatly augmented by the recently constructed culverts of this town. The trains from Bristol and Gloucester were stopped, and the Walsall station is several feet under water. Several slips of earth are said to have taken place between King's Norton and Barnet-green, on the Gloucester_ line of railway. HEREFORD.—The neighbourhood of this city was visited on Friday by a tremendous flood, such as has not been known for years, perhaps for centuries. The mail coach from Gloucester was washed away, and three of the horses and an inside passenger drowned. Some of the bags were fished out, but the coach, with the remainder, was carried away out of sight. About one o'clock the gas-works were flooded, and the city had to remain in darkness. LEICESTER.—This town and Market Harborou g h was deeply flooded on Friday. A post-office messenger was drowned. A viaduct on the Midland Railway was par tially destroyed, stopping the traffic between Rugby and Leicester. Part of the line at Loughborough was washed away, stopping the traffi c north of Leicester, and immense damage was done to factories and machinery, throwing thousands of hands out of work. DEVON.—Owing to the rapid rise of the river Teign, the town of Newton Abbot has been seriously damaged by a great flood, which laid all the valley under water, and much property had been washed away. NOTTINGHAM.—Owing to heavy rains all the week, this county has been flooded ; and on Sunday it reached its height. The trains have been stopped ; and at the new gas works only the tops of the gasometers can be seen. Several have locked up their houses and left. Gi.oucEsTea.—The Severn has risen so rapidly that the whole country is alarmed. The water is up over the South Wales Railway, and several slips have taken place on the Bristol and Birmingham line. SHREWSBURY.—This town and neighbourhood have been nearly deluged by the alarming floods. The Aberyst with mail was actually floated over the road, and a bridge near the Shrewsbury and Hereford Railway has been partially destroyed. DONCASTER.—The lower part of this town has been flooded by the overflowing of the river Don, and much damage was done. Similar accounts have been received from several other places. HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS" AGAIN frt3l SUC CESSFUL IN THE C URE OF A BAD <G.—Extract of a letter from Mr. B ro th erton, o f tangrat, near B oot l e, January 15th, 1851 . —" T o Pro essor Holloway.—Sir,-- After my wife's confinementAti 1848, she caught a severe cold, which settled in her right leg and foot, causing it to swell to an a l arm i ng size; ultimately forming into about twenty wounds, or ulcers, presenting a most fearful appearance. Thg-Pain she endured was almost insup portable, and th‘treatment of her medical attendants did no good whatever. She therefore resolved to give your Pills and Ointment a trial, and I am happy to say they have effected a perfect cum." IRELAND. SEVEN IRISH BARRISTERS and families are about to emigrate to Australia. TUE PRIMACY.—It is said that the Primate (Arch bishop of Armagh) is positively to resign, to be succeeded by the Bishop of Ossory, whose see will be conferred on the Rev. Mortimer O'Sullivan. THE WEATHER.—There is no abatement in the severity of the weather. The rain keeps pouring dcwn in a cease less torrent, and on Friday night, by way of addition, a heavy gale sprung up from the south-east, which, as morning advanced, grew into a hurricane. THE SIXMILE BRIDGE AFFAIR.—In the case of the Sixmile bridge verdict, the Court has deferred its judg ment. without naming any particular day. In the event of the Court being equally divided in opinion the effect would be tantamount to a defeat of the motion. IMPROVEMENT IN TRADE.—There has latterly been very steady improvement in the trade between Dublin and Liverpool, the exports from Ireland being cattle, provi sions, gcc., and the imports manufactured goods. The receipts at the Dublin Custom•house, last month, are 25 per cent. over those of last year. REPRESENTATION OF CARLOW , COUNTY.—III Com pliance with a requisition from the Conservative gentry, Mr. Henry Bruen, son of the late member, has consented to be put in nomination for the representation of his na tive county. It is said that the Hon. Mr. Ponsonby, brother of the Earl of Bessborough, will contest the county on the Whig interest. EXTRAORDINARY ESCAPE.—On Wednesday evening a woman named Mary Ryan, whilst throwing something from a three pair window in John-street, overreached herself and fell out. The height from which she fell must have been at least forty feet. She escaped with a simple dislocation of one of her legs. A policeman informed us that the first words she uttered on being raised up were— " Is my pipe broke ?"—Waterford Mail. SHIPWRECKS OFF THE COAST.—During the past week the weather has been exceedingly severe along the coast of Ireland, and it has not been without considerable disas trous effects upon the'shipping. On Friday, four smacks went down close to the wall near "the Pigeon-house," Dublin, and much damage was caused to other small craft. The mail boat Prince Arthur had a severe struggle the same afternoon to reach Dublin from Holy head. Her deck was several times submerged, but she succeeded in weathering' the storm gallantly. On Thursday, the schooner William Pitt, of Dublin, from Whiteheven, struck on a reef of rocks off Clogher- head, Drogheda, and went down. The crew was saved, but the vessel became a total wreck. On the same day, the officers of the coast guard perceived a large three-masted vessel, barque-rigged, labouring in the fury of the sea. northward of the Skerries, and endeavouring to avoid the coast on her lee. The crew. stripped naked on her deck, made almost superhuman efforts, but she struck in a small bay between Bettystown and Clogher-head, and all hands perished with the exception of the captain and a boy. She was a Swedish vessel, laden with sugar, rum, tobacco, and general cargo, bound for Liverpool. By the storm, which had somewhat abated on Saturday, the pier at Kingstown was washed away, and other disasters occa sioned. ECCLESIASTICAL. DIOCESE OF CHESTER PREFERMENTS.—The Rev.

CONSECRATION.—On Friday, the 12th instant, the Bishop of Chester consecrated the new Church of St. Mary, Halton, in the parish of Runcorn, in the county of Chester. The old church, having become ruinous and dilapidated, was taken down, and the present edifice was erected upon its site by Sir Richard Brooke, Bart., of Norton Priory, the patron, pursuant to a faculty granted for the purpose. It is entirely of stone, and from the designs of Mr. Scott, the architect; it contains 500 sittings, a considerable portion of which are free, and is a very beautiful specimen of ecclesiastical architecture.

MEETING OF CONVOCATION.—At a meeting held On this subject in London, on Wednesday, the Earl of Shaftes bury in the chair, numerous resolutions were passed, pro testing against the endeavour to introduce auricular confes sion into the Church of England, and the Romish doctrine of priestly absolution. The meeting was numerously attended. Petitions to her Majesty, praying that Convo cation may not be permitted to sit for the despatch of business, were on Friday transmitted to the Secretary of State from clergymen of the dioceses of London, Norwich, Hereford, the east riding of Yorkshire, archdeaconry of St. Alban's the rural deanery of Chester, the Isle of Thanet, and Nottingham and its vicinity. MEETING OF CONVOCATION. Both Houses of Convocation met on Friday in the Jerusalem Chamber, Westminster. In the Upper house a number of petitions were presented praying for the revival of Convocation. The Archbishop of Canterbury proposed an address to her Majesty, upon which an amendment was moved by the Bishop of Oxford, and after some discussion the debate was adjourned to this day (Tuesday). In the Lower House, of 'which the Very Rev. Dr. Pococke, Dean of Ely, was prolocutor or speaker, the standing orders as settled by Convocation in Sept. 1722, were agreed to. Numerous petitions were then presented in favour of the revival of the active features of Convocation, and four petitions against it. The Rev. Dr. Spey read a lengthy document stating the reasons why Convocation should be revived, and the subjects upon which it should deliberate. These were — the best means of increasing the efficiency of the church, the enabling the clergy more effectually to discharge their duties, the education of the clergy, the removal of immorality in the clergy, the constitution of a Supreme Court of Appeal, the confirmation of Bishops, the laws relating to the burial of the dead and the exclusion of evil livers from the Holy Communion, the relation of the Colonial churches to the Mother Church, and the repulsion of Romish aggression. After considerable discussion a committee was appointed to consider the subject ; an address to the Upper House praying that time may be afforded for the consideration of the report of such committee was agreed to, and the =Ohl was adjourned uutil this clay (I'utosy), HORTICULTURE . this excessively clamp THE Wig is every in, si i d n e ti f l u e l s l p e r x in n g o a . e plants, such as geranium in g kep S t to f v o e r , so C f o t n w s o e Conservatory, Av.—Where a separsatecinheorussr!as, and calceolarias, fire heat is required constantly dur Ae day it is necessary to open the side or front sasdusrinOg ; I I the heat expel the damp.
