TO THE FREE BURGESSES AND THE PARLIA MENTARY ELECTORS OF LIVERPOOL. • GENTLEMEN, TN accordance with the wishes of a large body of the Electors of your Borough, I beg to offer myself as a CAN DIDATE for the honour of representing you in the ensuing Parliament. If it be usual for an old Representative to lay before you his sentiments on some of the leading questions of general policy, it becomes an imperative duty on a new and untried Candidate to do so. _ . The first point, and one which, I understand, is exciting a great and general interest in your town, is that of the endow ment of the Romish clergy. - Upon this, as upon every other subject, I desire to give you my honest opinion. It is a i ques tion on which many great and good men may differ. It s one, however, upon which I can never swerve from the principles which have guided my conduct through life. What is in itself wrong can never be justifiecl by expediency; and the endow ment of the Church of Rome would, I consider, be treason to 1 to Protestantism. The spirit of Protestantism breathes liberty, order, protection to life and property, and toleration to al/. The spirit of Romanism, to use the words of Lord Arundel and Surrey (himself a Romanist), is antagonistic to Protestantism. These sentiments may be called " bigotry ;" they are, however, the source of all freedom. Were these principles applied to the government of Ireland, and applied fairly, firmly, and yet ; kindly, I believe they would offer a near solution to the most difficult problem of the British Government. The next subject, to which my attention has been called, is that of the Navigation Laws. The shipping interests of Eng- land are interwoven with all her past and present glories. I desire 'to see her Navigation Laws, which have long been the admiration of foreigners as well as of ourselves, maintained in their full integrity: and the necessity must be very imperative, or the advantages clear and decisive, which could justify any tampering with this time-honoured system of maritime law. On the monetary systems, various and opposed as they are, I would desire to learn the opiniors of this large and enlight ened community, (founded, as those opinions must be, on great commercial experience,) rather than to propound my own • and I can only assure you, that should I have the honour Of becoming your Representative. I should give to those opi nions all the consideration to which they are justly entitled; and should I draw from them an erroneous conclusion, I can only say that, though erroneous, it will be an honest one. The repeal of the Corn Laws is become the law of the land. I was opposed to it; but should deprecate any intermeddling with that law until considerable experience of its effects shall have tested its bearing and value. I should desire Free Trade with all nations, who will reciprocate its advantages with us ; subject of course to such modifications as may be requisite to maintain the fiscal integrity of the state. Having thus, Gentlemen, laid before you, clearly, as I hope, my views on the protection of our national Protestantism, as essential to real liberty and good government—on the mainte nance of our Navigation cod—on the repeal of the Corn Laws, as a settled question;—and on the conditional benefit of recip rocal Free Trade—l have only to add, that, if brought into Parliament by your suffrages, it will be my endeavour to pro mote your local interests, and to attend carefally to the public and private business, which so vast a commercial town as Liverpool must originate. With these sentiments, Gentlemen, I remain Your faithful and obedient Servant, DIGBY MACKWORTH _ _ June 28th, 1847. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF LIVERPOOL. GENTLEMEN, T HAVE have had the honour of receiving a commu nication inviting me to become a CANDIDATE at the ap proaching General Election, for one of the vacancies created by the resignation of your present Members. In accepting this invitation, 1 feel most sensibly that I aspire at once to nearly the highest and most honourable distinction in public life ; for such an one I hold to be the representation in Parliament of a constituency so important as that of Liver pool, as well by its numbers and intelligence, as by its industry and its wealth. Had this choice fallen upon some one eminent in . the State, and whose time and attention had already been devoted, with success, to the public service, I should have rejoiced, upon your own account, at the selection ; but as I have been thought wor thy to receive this very flattering proposal—one peculiarly gra tifying, as opening to me a prospect of representing my native town,l accept the offer, in the hope that I may, by a zealous and independent discharge of my duties in Parliament, and an unremitting attention to your interests, justify, in some degree, the compliment that has been paid to me. My opinions, I trust, are well known to you to be those which have long guided the supporters of a liberal spirit of legislation ; nevertheless, on some questions, which are at the present mo ment of peculiar interest, a more particular explanation will be naturally expected from me. Although, by the enlightened policy of the present Parlia ment, duties and restrictions have been removed from the leading articles of consumption, and the statute hook now re cords the triumph of the principles of commercial freedom, diligence and attention will still be necessary to secure to the people the full benefit of these important changes, and constant , exertion will be required to obtain for them the advantage of ,still further progress. Should I havethe honour of becoming your Representative, .1 shalt be proud of the opportunity, through you, of contending for the practical extension of the principles thus already ad mitted, to every article of use, comfort, or convenience, and of giving my best assistance to the completion of a t ar iff, th e operation of which would not only contribute to our prosperity athome, but, by the enlargement of our transactions with fo reign countries, strengthen the feeling of mutual dependence, and secure to us the inestimable blessings of peace. Whilst actively engaged in urging forward these improve ments in our commercial code, as calculated to foster the industry, add to the comforts, and advance the prosperity of th e Country, I should always take the deepest interest in those measures which, by diffusing instruction, and raising the peo ple generally in the scale of civilization, would have an equally direct and even a more powerful tendency to promote their p e rmanent welfare and happiness. Strongly impressed with this feeling, I shall be happy to be found associated with you, in assisting to establish the most efficient system of moral, intellectual, and religious education. I know and admire the cheerfulness with which . you are bearing the severe pressure upon your industry, occasioned by the late fearful calamity in Ireland, and I join in the general approval of the measures taken for the relief and for the im provement of the people of that country; but should the enact ments now passing through Parliament be found insufficient to protect this country, and particularly von, against the recur rence of the unjust burdens under which you are at present suffering, I should think no efforts too great to secure such alterations and amendments as may do justice to your interests. I should also cordially support all future measures calculated to encourage in Ireland a love of good order, a spirit of indus try, and a feeling of self-reliance. I have no personal objects to serve, nor any feeling of ambi tion to indulge, that would not be fully gratified by the distinc tion of being your Representative. My freedom from all other engagements would enable me to devote my time and attention, almost entirely, to your Parliamentary and Local Interests, and for any exertion I might be called on to make, I should,find am ple recompense in the belief that I had obtained your confi dence. I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, your very obedient Servant, THOMAS B. BIRCH. 10th Jnne, 1847. BOROUGH OF LIVERPOOL.

Extract of a Letter from Mr. Robert Calvert, Chemist, Stokes ly, dated January 29th, 1847. SIR,—Mr. Thom izz,son, National Schoolmaster of this Town desires me to send you the particulars respecting a Son of his, who had been seriously ill for three years and a half, and who has derived the greatest benefit from the use of your medicines, after trying all ordinary resources without effect. The Boy is eight years of age, of strumous or scrofulous constitution. He seems to have had a Pleurizy which ended in a large collection of matter in the Chest, which eventually formed a passage through the wales of the Chest, which ended in three fistulons sores, which continued to discharge large quantities of pus up to May, when he was induced to try your medicines; at this date he was in an apparent dying condition, and in the highest degree of Marasmus or Consumption. He had severe hectic fever, the urine depositing large quantities of sediment—con stant distressing cough —no appetite—and the Stomach reject ing nearly every thing he took, both food and medicine, he be gan by taking tive of your Pills night and morning, which were gradually increased to ten, which in a short time had the effect of completely curing the Cough, the Stomach affections, and restoring the urine to its natural stat e . Hi s strength and flesh are also restored, and his appetite keen and digestion good. (Signed) ROBERT CALVERT. To Professor Holloway. THE EARL OF ALDBOROUGH CURED OF A LIVER AND STOMACH COMPLAINT.

" Health is a blessing dropt from heaven, Which money cannot buy ; The life of life; the body's peace— And pleasant harmony." Notwithstanding the revolutions medicine has undergone as a science, despite the theories which have alternately reigned de spotic in her schools, and tne controversies which have divided her most distinguished ornaments, her ultimate aim has ever been the alleviation of human suffering; for should either the enthuSiasm of her followers or the warmth of their discussions surprise us when we consider the priceless object—health; the attainment and preservation of which are so ardently sought by all that a single exception would be a paradox in the history of society. But the aid of the physician is too frequently soli cited to restore lost health, insead of enforcing the study of Nature's easy . lesson to . preserve it; indeed, the Goddess de mands but simple offerings, and that the possession of her boon requires us but to refrain from excesses against her laws has been thus elegantly illustrated by the philosophic Dr. Thomas Brown—" Between satiety on the one hand, and want on the other, the stream of health flows tranquilly along, which, but for these boundaries, would speedily waste itself and disappear, as the most magnificent river, which, if eispersed over a boundless plain, would flow almost into nothing, owes its abundance and majestic beauty to the very banks which seem to confine its waters within too narrow a channel." This beautiful truism embodies the creed of the ablest physicians— that simplicity and moderation with regard to diet, and a faith ful discharge of the functions of the digestive organs, will be the best guarantee for the maintenance of health, as it is by their conjoined agency the body derives its support and strength, and which Noon languish and decline when they become en feebled and oppressed. To palliate this latter state, to equalize the secretion of the liver, and to restore the digestive functions to their original and natural action; Mr. COCKLE'S COMPOUND ANTIBILIOUS PILLS are cznfidently recommended. Prepared by JAMES COCKLE, Surgeon and Apothecary, IS, New Ormond-street, London ; and may be had of all re spectable Medicine Vendors, in Boxes, at Is. 10., 2s. 9d., and 4s. 6d. Dr. Collier's Testimonial in favour of COCKLE'S Pit.Ls, must be admitted to be highly satisfactory, and will be read with much interest. The following is an extract from the second edition (page 189) of the translation of the New Pharmacopoeia of the Royal College of Physicians of London, by Dr. G. F. COLLIER, pub lished by Longman and Co. : " It is no small defect in this compilation (speaking of the Naw PHARP4ACOPCEIA) that we have no purgative medicines but what contains aloes ; yet we know that Inemorrhoidal per sons cannot bear aloes, EXCEPT it be in the form of Cockle's Pills, which chiefly consist of aloes, scammony, and colocynth, which I think are formed into a sort of compound extract, the acridity of which is obviated, I suspect, by an alkaline process, and by a fourth ingredient (unknown to me) of an aromatic tonic nature. I think no better and no worse o! it for its being a patent medicine. I look at it as an article of commerce and domestic convenience, and do not Hesitate to say, it is the best made pill in the kingdom; a muscular purge, a mucous purge, and a hydrogogue purge combined, and their effects properly controlled by a dirigent and corrigent. That it does not com monly produce limmorrhoids, like most aloetic pills, I attribute to its being thoroughly soluble, so that no unnissolved particles adhere to the mucous membrane of the rectum." NOTE.—Purchasers of Cockle's Pills ought particularly to examine the Government stamp affixed to each box, and to see that the words " JAMES COCKLE, APOTHECARY," are en graved upon it in white letters, as without this mark of authen ticity none can possibly be genuine. Observe that the Signature of the proprietor, "G. C. Serjeant," is written on the Government Stamp.

DAWBARN AND SON, of 110, Bold-street, Liverpool, will continue to be their sole agents for that town, and will have the exclu sive sale of this fashionable Coat. Messrs.

CORN FROM THE BLACK SEA.—The Sernaykore de Marseilles, of the 21st instant, mentions that 479 vessels arrived from Constantinople, from the 22d ult. to the 6tli inst., 344 of which came from the Black Sea, laden with grain. During the same interval, 128 vessels, with cargoes of corn, sailed for Great- Britain, 140 for Franco, 23 for Um*, 24 for Leghorn 21 for Trieste, &c. AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE HIBERNIA. The royal mail steam-ship Hibernia, Captain Rrie, arrived here yesterday morning at nine o'clock, having made the passage from Boston in less than twelve dark and from Halifax in less than ten. The aspect of the war has not been changed since de last advices. The American army was advancing and concentrating at Puebla, whence, as soon as the new re eruits reach the main body, it would march upon Alexia% between which city and Puebla at the Pass of Rio Fria, preparations were making to resist General Scott. lit seemed to be rather more generally thought that Gener4 Scott was negociating for peace. He had, however, arp: cording to advices from Vera Cruz of the Ist instant, left Jalapa at the head of six thousand troops. Genera Twiggs and his division entered Puebla on the 29th. It was not positively known, but supposed, that Gentrall Scott would advance on the capital with his present force. Authentic news had been received that Santa Anna ball nsigned the Presidency on the 28th, but it was not knows whether Congress had accepted the resignation or not. He had taken this step in consequewe of opposition to his views of the defence of the capital. The America]; army was expected to reach Mexico on the 15th instant. Exciting rumours prevailed at Vera Cruz from Puebla, t 4 the effect that the citizens had risen upon General Worth. and cut off six or seven hundred of his mea. Much evi dence was given to support the rumour, but the Pi , ayene and its Vera Cruz correspondent doubted the truth of it. The murder of Colonel Sowers' party, officers and men, is confirmed. Suspicions are entertained at Jalapa of as attempt to retake the place. Colonel Doniphan had ar-: rived at Parras with about a thousand men and sixteen pieces of artillery. From Havana we have accounts to the 31st of May, Little change in market; sugars without alteration, ancr operations somewhat limited ; in molasses no -operational note. Freights very dull; to Europe £3. Nominal ex change on London, 7 per cent. prem. Her Britannic Majesty's sloop Alarm had just arrived. Some fever hue appeared. The weather was extremely hot. There haul[ been some showers. Sugars were in more request for Europe. 2,000 hhds. molasses had been taken for Great Britain. We give under our financial summary much commercial information, and in another column some valuable parti culars as to the state of the crops through the Unite& States. It is estimated that the value of agricultural produce (excluding cotton and tobacco) shipped to Great Britain and Ireland from New York from Ist September last to 14th instant, amount to the enormous sum of thirty-two million dollars. This is almost a new opening to theagricul tural products. From the Ist Sept. to the beginning of June last—nine months—upwards of six millions barrels of flour and corn meal have been sent from the United States to Great Britain and Ireland. It is expected that in the remaining quarter of the year a million and, a quarter barrels more would be sent. These barrels weigh 2001bs. each, and calculating them at that weight, would afford one pound a day for nearly one-third of a year to twelve million people. There were thirty-eight vessels on the berth at New York loading for Great Britain with bread stuffs, and the rivers and canals were taxed to their utmost to bring to the seaboard the surplus of the interior. Al ready nearly 274,000 barrels more than in the same period of any preceding year had been received, and of Indian corn an excess of one million bushels ; and this, it was expected, would go on. The whole harvest had begun in Virginia, and in the course of a fortnight, would be in progress through the state of New York. It looked well, but would not be dry enough for shipment before Septem ber or October. The United States ship Macedonia, lent by the govern.. ment to carry provisions to Ireland, sailed from New York on the 15th instant. The plan of a line of steamers between New York and Liverpool has been adopted. The initiatory steps have been taken to build the first one at Cincinnati imme diately, on a favourite model. It is expected that the first steamer will be ready to commence her trips by October. The New York circular of Mr. T. J. Stewart states that in consequence of the advices by the last outward steamer being the reverse of what was anticipated, the price of cotton fell one cent per pound, at which it became steady. During the last fo ur b us i ness d a y s pr i or t o th e steamer's leaving, the disposition to sell visibly decreased. He says, with reference to the next crop, that it is too early in the season to speak positively, and that freights had re covered from,their depression.

Liverpool is not generally behind, eSen the metropolis itself, in anything that is at all advantageous to the public; and it has long been a matter of surprise that here we have not had establishments more exclusively devoted te particular branches in trade. In London, the providing !and' from that of general drapery, and so g eneral a re the if family mourning has long beep held a s p erfectl y dis tinct resulting, that even Bigot; . in his !` Directory,o aould class them under different heads. Within the last Cew months, however, Messrs. Foreman and Foster bate .commenced an establishment in Bold-atreet, which they aave entirely devoted to the furiiishing, of family mourn ing, and so great are the advantages of selecting from a :arae and newly-purchased stock, that there can he little doubt of ibs success.
