BROMLEY'S PATENT EMPIRE SOAP, which heretofore has been difficult tole obtained, as very few of the grocers will keep it. To use their own words, by way of explanation, they state,—" Were we to lay it, it would reduce our sales fully one third, ai two pounds of the Empire Soap will go as far as three pounds of any other soap; we should also lose our profit on soda and washing powders, as neither of these articles are required when the Empire Soapis used, in either the hardest water or in sea water." What the/rocers are displeased at in this soap is its strongest recommendation to the notice of the large consumers, private families, hotel keepers, laundresses, &c. It only requires to be used with a ligit hand. And besides the above advantage it saves half the usual labour, consequently less friction and wear in the clothes, aril will not injure the colours in the most delicate prints ; and is equally valuable for every other domestic purpose, even for tolet use, as it is a pure soap, free from rosin and other useless ngredients, which not only add unnecessary weight to the soap but detract from its cleansing properties.

Yesterday, a boy named John Thompson was sentenced by the police magistrate to be imprisoned three months for steal ing two half-crowns from the shop kept by Mary Hill, in Mildart-street, on Saturday last. ROBBERY PROM THE PERSON.—Yesterday, Margaret Wil liams, or Sheen, who was charged by Ann Mackay with stealing from her pocket the sum of fourteen shillings on Saturday last, in Scotland-road, was convicted, and sentenced to be imprisoned for three months. ATTEMPTED ROBBERY OF A TILL.—A boy, named Patrick Keenan, was brought before the Police-court yesterday, charged with attempting to rob the till of the shop kept by Ellen Sharp, in London-road, on Saturday. He was detected in the act of opening the till ; and having been on six previous occasions convicted of similar offences, he was sentenced to be imprisoned for three months. DEATH PROM EXCESSIVE DRINKING.— On Saturday night, a labourer, named James Earle Probert, who lived in 39 court, Frederick-street, went home to his lodgings in a state of in toxication, his usual condition. He complained of a burning pain in his throat, and asked for something to drink. Having obtained this, he went to bed. During the night, be rose, and still complaining of his throat, had another drink. Towards morning, he got worse, and on trying to drink some cold water, was unable to swallow it, and was put to bed, where he was found dead soon afterwards. i s : S e D i etsrwhoEtnoieNhn a nok o r gt washin.—tt the Oege resided at Thomas C ra s n s t a o i n a n , accompanied by after some STEALING WEARING APPAREL.—Two women, named d Ellen Braithwaite and Sarah Irvine, were brought up at the Police-court, yesterday, charged with stealing five shawls, that o n accompanied the mern morning in man question, s fpemoa t irntoitotdnut,netdhiaatikby. fe l u chr:f t vi m i t t f rewi steal i ng, two victorines, and other articles, on the 26th of May last, from the house of Mrs. Lorton, in Hart-street.

Not being quite aware of their proximity to where he was, Edon was caught by them, and jammed between them and the one on which his hay was placed. In the collision he suffered such injuries as to cause the neces sity of his removal to the Northern Hospital, where he died on Sunday. CHAMBER or COMMERCE.—The monthly meeting of the Council was held yesterday, Edward Heath, Esq., president, in the chair. The usual formal business being disposed of, the committee appointed on the 23rd ult., on the present state of monetary affairs, was requested to take into consideration the operation of the Bank Charter Act of 1844, and to report to the Council. It was ordered that a copy of the report of the deputation to the Paris Exhibition, on the samples of cotton and other raw produce there exhibited, be sent to the Board of Trade. Among the communications were letters from the Foreign-office, in reply to the memorial on the sub ject of the loan to the Monte Videan Government of 1845, — referred to the Special Committee ; also one from the Board of Trade, in answer to the suggestion that a floating light-house should be placed at the entrance of St. George's Channel, to indicate the fair way, and stating the reasons for declining to comply therewith. LIVERPOOL POLYTECHNIC SOCIETY.—A meeting of this society was !held last night, at the Royal Institution ; John Grantham, Esq., in the chair. It was announced that the prize of £2O, offered by Mr. Mondel, for the best model of a merchant ship, had been awarded to Mr. Claughton, of South hampton. The model was exhibited, as well as several of the competing ones, and excited much interest. A paper by Mr. Miller was read, descriptive of a new pyrometer of his inven tion. It was followed by some discussion, in the course of which the chairman described a pyrometer which he had seen in operation, and which had this advantage over Mr. Miller's that it was continuous in its application. The next paper was one by Mr. Jones, descriptive of Callen and Ripley's patent multiplying rotative motion, which was illustrated by a well-executed model. The great advantage gained was by the reduced friction, and it was said to be peculiarly applicable to the screws of large steamers, not only economising space, but gaining speed. It was intended to exhibit a model of Clelland's stone boring machine, but in the absence of the president, who was to explain it, the exhibition was postponed. SPLENDID WATER-COLOUR PORTRAITS.—We have been much gratified by a private view of a splendid collection of water-colour portraits, in the studio of Mrs. Musgrave, in Oxford-street East. This lady is on a brief visit to Liverpool, from London and Edinburgh, in both of which capitals she practices as a water-colour portrait painter. Among the limited collection she has brought with her, there are admirable specimens of her talent as an artist. The style of her portraits is bold and vigorous, yet they are manipulated with all the delicacy of the most minute and elaborately finished miniatures. Of those which we examined, it would be difficult to say which most deserves admiration; but we were agreeably struck with the stately beauty of a full-length por trait of Miss Grant ; in this the white satin costume is charm ingly executed, its lustre and richness being rendered with the most deceptive fidelity. The general air of this picture is refined and graceful. A similar expression is fully warranted in reference to those of the Hon. Mrs. Ra shlei g h, and Fanny Lady Blantyre ; but it 'would be less easy to convey an idea of the delicacy of handling and full rich beauty of colouring displayed in the portraits of the Hon. Mrs. Fitzroy Somerset, and Lady Morgan. Mrs. MusgraCe has also some admirable male pictures, and portraits of children. ___._.—.=-----""""-------..,--. or THE NEW COMMANDER-10 til 0 i — O --- "it T HE health of General Simrsos h.' eo c r o ) succu mbed to the fatigues of his ardl°llje i th e commander of the British forces i rlce llvorfq and the infirmities natura l to his advaA the command has been bestowed on °e lle t it ° i TO N, the son of the admiral who won the old i victory . at Navarino.
