The attendance was good, but not crowded. The vocalists were Miss Whitnall, Miss Kelly (pupil of Miss W., and a young and promising singer), Mr. Reeves, Mr. Crank, The near and Mr. Hornby.

The deceased was suddenly taken ill on Saturday last, and shortly afterwards expired. The father is a labouring man, living in Combennere-street, and it appeared that the mother died soon after its birth, and that the surviving parent, from being out of work, could not properly admi - : nister to its wants. Mr. Leach, surgeon, made a post mortem examination, and was of opinion that the child died from debility, arising from want of sufficient suss The jury returned a verdict in accordant tenanc the opinion expressed by the surgeon.—[A question na turally arises—Why did not the father apply for relief from the parish officers ASSAULT ON A DEAF AND DUMB MAN.—A man, named Roberts, was yesterday charged, at the Police-court, with grievously assaulting an elderly man, named Michael Murphy. With the complainant (who is not only deaf and dumb, but has never been taught to communicate by the language of the hands in the usual way) appeared a young girl, his niece, who said she had lived with him from infancy, and understood him by signs. She was requested to ask him what happened, and the motions be tween them were so apparently simple and indefinite, he accompanying his by a peculiar burring noise from the lips, that those present were surprised ; any onq, how ever, accustomed to him could make anything out of what he attempted. But his head was bandaged, he having re ceived a wound three and a-half inches long, inflicted by a sharp instrument—and it appeared that an affray bad taken place between him and the prisoner and his bro ther, who was with him, together with two others, on Sa turday evening, at five o'clock. The number of the assailants and the hour were designated distinctly enough by his holding up so many fingers. A circumstance that made against the prisoner was, that when apprehended shortly after the assault a clasp knife stained with blood was found in his waistcoat pocket. The prisoner, whose head was also tied up, said he had first been struck by the old man on the leg, and afterwards on the bead with a long stick. He had, however, at first told the officer who ap prehended him that he had hurt his head by falling amongst some iron at the Prince's Dock. Mr. Rushton committed him for trial at the sessions. CHARGE OF ROBBING TO A LARGE AMOUNT AGAINST A SERVANT.—Yesterday, at the Police-court, a rather good-looking young woman, named Sarah Moore, was charged by her master, Mr. John Welsh, on suspicion of stealing from him money to the amount of about £l9O. Complainant said that the prisoner had been in his ser vice a 3 housemaid, and the only other servant was the barmaid. Yesterday (Sunday) he had the money in a bureau ; had seen it about four o'clock in the afternoon, and missed it in the evening. Strongly suspecting the prisoner only, he had her apprehended. Mr. Dawson, officer of the main bridewell, said that the prisoner, while in custody there, expressed to him a strong desire to see her mistress in order to explain to her, adding that she thought it hard that an innocent person should be kept in custody on the charge, and that the money would be found under the piano in one of the rooms, but was not taken by her. Dawson said she could not under the circum stances see her mistress, but he went to the house, and in various parts of the room found concealed—one £5O note, nine £5 notes, thirty pounds in gold, two pounds and sixpence in silver (in all £137 Os. 6d.), also a foreign coin, and a key which opened the bureau where the mo ney is kept. The key, it appeared from a reply given by the complainant, had been made for him, he having lost one which belonged to the same lock. Mr. Rushton re marked on the indiscretion of publicans keeping such large sums of money in their houses, as people of bad character frequently went in for change of sovereigns, re marked where the change was got from, and thereby laid their plans to possess themielves of the whole horde. Mr. Welsh explained that he had recently received the money to meet some bills which he owed, and which he expected to be daily called for. The prisoner, in her de fence, accused the barmaid (Miss Taylor) as knowing of the removal of the money, she herself denying the charge. Miss Taylor, who was present, denied the statement made affecting her; and as the case against the prisoner was so far only one of suspicion, and somewhat doubtful, she was remanded in order that further evidence might be pro cured. TEA PARTIES AT ST. JAMES'S SCHOOL.—Yesterday afternoon, the children connected with St. Thomas's Church, Toxteth-park, assembled in St. James's School room, St. James's-road, (which had been kindly opened for the occasion by the Rev. Mr. )Hampton,) and enjoyed an abundant repast of tea and buns. T hey were after wards affectionately addressed by the curate of St. Tho mas's, the Rev. Charles Marshall. The principal school room was tastefully festooned with evergreens. In the evening, an annual congregational tea-party took place in the same room, which was crowded to excess. There were present the Rev. Mr. Butler, incumbent of St. Thomas's, who presided ; the Rev. Messrs. Parry, G. Gibbon. W. H. Hampton, and H. Carpenter ; also Morgan, Jones, Buikelev, Mr. Hunton ,ctive churchwarden), and many others. Amongst 'ies (who were numerous) were the Misses Glad- Tea, coffee ' 1 essrs. loaf, &c., were served in abun- Lnd kindliest feeling prevailed Several anthems, &c., were sung with good feet, the organist of the church presiding at the piano. The Rev. Chairman, after the tea, addressed the meeting at considerable length, expressing the delight he felt at seeing so large an assemblage, and successively thanking the collectors, Sunday-school teachers, and members of the congregation generally, for the efficient aid they had afforded him in his ministry, and in extending Scriptural information amongst the poor children of the district. He pointed out the several societies and objects for which ha besought their support, and especially the new daily schools about to be built. The land for the schools would, he said, be in their possession next month ; the plans, &c., had been approved of by the authorities at the seat of government, who bad given a grant towards themof £1075. in our opinion, the 31r. Gladstone had also liberally given £6OO, and the Earl line, of Signor De- of Sefton £2OO. Mr. Chas. Groves had likewise interested himself, so that with the aid of subscriptions from the con- the la( stone. dance and the best arrang few ye heson, and Co extensive s we look forwar ) reap the advantages of an extended in with that vast empire which is now open to the commercial enterprise of the world, it is evident that we must open to that country a market which will receive a corresponding return for our increased exports. That no such market can be looked for under the present fiscal ements, the history of the tea market for the past era affords ample testimony, for the depression has n such as to subject our merchants and manufacturers in many instances to losses which have rendered the trade altogether unprofitable ; thus we find from the intelligent circular of Messrs. Gibson, Ord, and Co., that notwith standing the very profitable rates quoted by the last over land mail for the article of shirtings, the transactions entered into in Manchester were ' limited in extent, which can only be accounted for by the constant appre hension parties ale under as to returns.' It is true a gra dual increase has taken place in the consumption of tea, but that increase bears no proportion to the increase of population, or to the reduction in the bonded price, and only serves to indicate to what extent the consumption would reach were the present enormous rate of duty suf ficiently reduced to admit of a material diminution of the retail prices." The second is from the circular of Messrs. Lloyd, Ma " We are sorry to bear the sugar and coffee markets are now experiencing the mischievous effects of the policy adopted by Government during the last session in relation to the sugar and coffee duties. Scarcely any sales can be effected, and those are at such reduced prices as to be most seriously felt by importers. It has completely pre vented the interest of the sugar and coffee planter in this country from partaking in the benefits which the general prosperity of the country confers on every other interest, and, after what was done in the last session relative to these duties, the most attached adherent to the present Government must speak with great hesitation and doubt of the ulterior measures of the Government towards the West India interest." Several instances of incendiarism are, we regret to say, mentioned in the papers before us. In Barbadoes the rains had been abundant, and the weather was, at the departure of the mail, fine and fair. The planters were well pleased, and the weather was con sidered favourable. The news from St. Lucia is to the 28th of November. The agricultural intelligence is of a cheering description. A return of the island produce on which export duty has been paid into the Treasury, during the six years from 1839 to 1844 inclusive, is published, by which it appears that the last crop was the largest for the whole period. Th 9 result, observes the Independent press, was antici pated, by reason of the better system of cultivation which was gaining ground amongst the planters, and the steady industry of our peasantry. There was a slight commotion, or rather outbreak, at Vera Cruz, a few days previously to the departure of the Forth, but the Commandment General, Quixano, took nportation, which, energetic and immediate steps to suppress it. Otherwise " The injurious effects of the present duty, alluded to in our circulars of January 1843 and 1844, as being so especially oppressive in the lower kinds of congou as al most to exclude them from consumption, is illustrated by the fact, that at the present time, with an increase in the stock in the United Kingdom over that of last year, there is a great scarcity in all the markets of the medium and finer kinds, the inquiries for which have advanced them 2d. to 3d. per pound, while the lowest qualities remain almost stationary, notwithstanding that - eculativc purchases to anott ere have been When, ther from the extended shipments of our manufactures, is likely still further to exceed our present consumption, we can see nothing in prospect but a further accumulation of this class, unless by a great and immediate reduction of the duty a much larger consumption is created, encou ragement to hope for which is afforded by the very general opinion now prevailing of the necessity, if not the proba bility, of its taking place." the place was quiet, an Acting-superintendent Bibby has been presented with an elegantly-bound Bible, and a copy of " Brown's Dic tionary and Gelgraphical description of the Bible," as a mark of the respect he earned for himself in the estimation of the public by his generous conduct towards a soldier's wife left friendless in this town last August. SIR WM. STANLEY'S HOUNDS.—This crack pa_— will be seen, will meet at Mr. Willoughby's, Birkenhead Hotel, on Thursday next, and proceed to draw the cover at Prenton. We have no doubt that there will be an ex traordinary field out. Mr. Willoughby's house being fixed upon as the " meet" must be highly complimentary to that gentleman's feelings. . . This revolution may be considered as the most popular that has ever broken out in Mexico. The whole country, to a voice, is in favour of it, and in case of failure on the part of Santa Anna, in his attack on General Paredes, an important change will take place. FRANCE.—The Paris journals of Friday and Saturday are almost exclusively occupied with the ministerial crisis described by nearly all as being passed. Dr. Bateman is to be the new solicitor for excise. There is no truth in the report that Mr. Hardy is about to resign the representation of Bradford. The Rev. Hugh M'Neile has engaged to preach the next annual sermon of the Church Missionary Society. A barrister of the Hon. Society of Gray's Inn has been expelled from the bar for unprofessional practices. He has appealed to the judges.

An interesting document will be that same register, which we shall take the liberty perhaps of quoting from extensively, for the purpose of sheaving to their fellow townsmen, and the world, into what filthy ways the whig-radical gentry and tradesmen of Liverpool will submit to walk, for the sake of faction. We observe, by the way, from a circular recently issued by Charles Edward Rawlins, jun., secretary to the anti. monopoly association, that the purchases in question are to be made to pay 6or 7 per cent—a comfortable prospect for the indigent and almost pauper tenantry by whom such property is chiefly inhabited ! following EXTRAORDINARY ARRIVAL OF SHIPPING. - From Friday morning last up to last night upwards or two hundred vessels have reached this port, the majority of which have been detained outside by the late easterly winds. The departures have also been rather mor thirty-one vessels having sailed on Friday and twenty three on Saturday. The docks and dock-quays have as sumed a very different appearance to that which they exhibited at the middle of last week and for some time previously. THE TRANMERE DOCKS.—In our recent notice of this undertaking, we intimated, as we were informed was the case, that the plan published by us was objected to, on the part of the Admiralty, by Captain Evans, acting con servator of the river. We are authorised to state that such is not the correct statement of the circumstances; and that no objection has been urged by Captain Evans against the plan in question, which is the one approved of by Mr. Chamberlain, the projector and the owner of the Tranmere portion of the property required for its con struction The mistake arose in consequence of an allu sion in the Dock Committee to some previous plans of the same undertaking, to which the captain's decided opposition had been expressed. LIVERPOOL AND BIRKENHEAD.—The Liverpool Stan dard well illustrates, in its management, the enterprising spirit that has long distinguished the town with which it is immediately connected, and which now animate both banks of the Mersey. Our excellent contemporary has lately published two supplements chiefly devoted to plans (in which typography is more skilfully and largely used than in anything of the kind that we can remember) of the 'prof boek - s, and of the new town and pr.oposed - TRAD WITH ,CHINA AND INDIA The commercial intelligence brought by the ov mail is not of a :beering character, prese xprcased of an improvement in trade, but prices are recorded as being very low, and busi less as being very limited. All seems to indicate that caution should be exercised in exporting goods to India and China. With respect to the latter country, the par ties concerned in the tea trade are drawing attention to the small consumption of manufactured articles as an argument for the reduction of the duty on tea. The fol lowing extracts from two trade circulars illustrate the controversy that is now going on with respect to this subject. Both of them are in favour of a reduction of the duty. The first is from the circular of Messrs. Car lisle, Capel, and Co. : If we are !rcours Jan. 7, Ig4S. - WEST INDIES. The 1?oyal West Indian steamer Forth, arrived at Southampton on Sunday, bringing mails to the following dates :—Jamaica, December 9 ; Demerara, December 4 ; Barbadoes, November 2 ; Bermuda, December 21 ; and Vera Cruz, December 1. The intelligence is not of very much interest. In Jamaica the bill for providing means for securing immigration of Hill Coolies was passed through committee on the Gth of December, and in it all necessary arrangements are said to be embodied. A fund of £50,000 had been appropriated for this object, and, in addition, authority is given to the Commissioners of Pub lic accounts to issue Exchequer-bills for the amount re quired, in case the Home Government should ship 3,000 Coolies more than those expected. The weather is described as having been extremely fa vourable for the crops. The West Indians are not, it seems, yet reconciled to the change in the sugar duties. The following is from a Jamaica paper ATTEMPTED HOUSE-ROBBERY AT EGREMONT.—OD Saturday morning, about one o'clock, the family of Mr. Harrison, of Wellington-buildings, Egremont, were dis turbed by the barking of the house-dog, and, on getting up, found that the premises had been broken open, and most of the moveables packed up, and disposed in readi ness to be carried off. A gentleman in the house fired after the thieves as they retired, but they escaped. TRANSATLANTIC COMMUNICATION.—The fine new steam-ship Cambria, Captain Judkins, sailed from Liver pool on Saturday afternoon for Halifax and Boston, her first voyage, taking the mail and a large number of pas sengers. The fine new packet-ship John R. Skiddy, Captain Skiddy, which left New York on her first voyage on the ith ult, arrived in the Mersey on Friday last, bringing a number of passengers, amongst whom was the special messenger sent to Colonel Bankhead, the British Minister to Mexico, with despatches relative to the revc- lutionary state of affairs in that republic. THE Pooll.—While the wealthy are enjoying them selves in their warm houses, and sitting by their com fortable fires, they ought to recollect that thousands of their fellow-creatures are suffering in the cheerless tene ments of poverty : their shattered panes are open to the piercing winds ; a tattered garment scar( shivering flesh ; while a few faint and dyin fivers a mock their wishes than warm their limbs -- ; and we know that many are emaciated with sick age, and pining with hunger. Let the rich and affluent look out for such objects, and hasten to the relief of their poor fellow-creatures at this inclement season of the year, and provide them with warm clothing, food, and good fires, and they will have the blessings of those who are ready to perish, mingled with thanksgivings to God, and ardent prayers for benefactors, which will ascend more grateful to heaven than columns of the most costly in cense. INDIAN MARKETS.—The Indian markets continue to exhibit a glut of many descriptions of goods, indicative of . . impropernoou!Minn in tho 6 I;ippere.but tho inotancce enu merated in the accounts by the present mail are certainly not more than was anticipated. One of the main features is the large accumulation of cotton wool in the Chinese ports, accompanied wiih a falling-off in the demand, for very obvious reasons, which we assigned a day or two ago, when alluding to the home consumption of the arti cle for the past year. This is a change which we may expect to go on progressively over the whole Asiatic con tinent, as the necessary result of the perfection of our machinery for spinning yarn and fabricating cloth—and a change which must either discourage the cultivation of cotton wool in our Indian possessions, or materially in crease the competition with the production of the Ameri can continent. As it respects the present year, the latter will be the course of things to an absolute certainty, for with 150,000 bales in the market of China, with a much limited demand, no more will be sent from India, and the European market is the only other resource.—Herald. CHURCH PASTORAL AID SOCIIITY.—OR Tuesday last a meeting of St. Simon's Auxiliary to this Society was held in the School-royal attached to St. Simon's Church. The indefatigable collectors returned their boxes and cards, which proved most productive. Mr. Conner, in the absence of the treasurer, Mr. H. J. Webster, an nounced the collection to amount to upwards of £so—an immense sum from a congregation composed almost en tirely of poor people. The Rev. T. Nolan addressed the meeting on the proceedings of the Parent Society. His speech was most effective. He dwelt forcibly on the coldness with which the society had been treated in Liver pool. It generously grants about £9OO per annum to support ministers in the densely populated districts of the town ; and last year the return was only £5OO. He con cluded with a most touching allusion to the outgoing year, which drew tears from many eyes. The meeting termi nated with praise, as it began with prayer, and afterwards a distribution of papers and boxes, and a sale of fancy work took place, for the benefit of the society. We trust that the good example set by St. Simon's will be followed by the other churches which are enjoying the liberality of the society, and that, ere long, an auxiliary will be attached to every church in the town. FORGED LETTER CASE.-At the Police-court yestera day a little and poorly-clad elderly man, named George Beeston, was brought before Mr. Rushton on a charge of endeavouring to obtain money by means of a forged letter. Dr. Duncan stated the prisoner had called at his house for assistance, leaving a note. Witness (who did not know him) said that he could do nothing for him, unless be brought a testimonial from a respectable party. Prisoner—who is a reduced professional man who was sometime at the Edge-hill and Windsor Dispensary, which did not succeed—said he would do so ; and be called again in about a week, bringing a note (produced) purporting to be signed by J. B. Watson, M.D., recom mending him as a decayed practitioner, who was worthy of pecuniary aid. It was dated from a street near London road. Dr. Watson being called, pronounced the note to be altogether a forgery. lie had not lived in the street stated for some years. lie was cross-examined, on behalf of the prisoner, by Mr. Davenport, with a view to obtain his admission that the prisoner had been afflicted with fits, and was of weak intellects. The witness admitted that he believed he was, some years ago, subject to fits, brought on by his intemperate habits ; but that he con sidered him responsible for his actions. Mr. Rushton remarked that the act with which he was charged, and the manner in which it was accomplished, did not evince the existence of mental weakness. Dr. Duncan then pro duc,..d a third note, addressed to himself, and in the pri soner's handwriting, in which he (the prisoner) employed threatening language if be were not assisted. Mr. Rush ton, on perusing it, said this was a very bad part of the case, and committed the prisoner to gaol for forty-two days. TWELFTH NIGHT.—Last night being twelfth night, the usual amount of twelfth cakes was exposed to view in the confectioners' shops, several of which were illumi nated. The largest cakes that we heard of were those of Messrs. Feeney, of Berry-street, and Mr. Horsfall, of Church-street. That in the former shop had been ex posed to view since Wednesday, and been seen by thou sands. It is—or rather was, prior to being cut into -164 feet in circumference, 54 feet in diameter, 2 feet 3 inches, on an average, in depth, and 2,2401bs n weight The ingredients con ter, three hundred of currants I hundredw redweight of nc ight of sugar, nine hundredweig one hundredweight of lemon-1 ;ht of flour, one thousand six hum and two gallons of brandy. On either side of this im mense cake stood two smaller ones, of about 100 lbs. weight each, surmounted with steeples, in the modern style of ecclesiastical architecture. A little to the rear were groups of imitation frozen trees and exotic plants; and on a raised pedestal stood s. full-length repre. entation of the Queen, smiling benignantly on the fairy scene be neath ; while surmounting the whole was a cbaste and elegant arch, intertwined with French bouquets, which gave a light and pleasing effect to the entire.—The cake at Mr. Horsfall's shop weighed 2201b5., and was about 7 feet in circumference. The materials were of the rich- est quality. On a pedestal in the centre a full-length portrait of her Majesty was brought prominently into view, and contiguous to it were figures, composed of sugar, of Prince Albert, the Queen Dowager,' &c., all very neat specimens of workmanship. The shop was brilliantly lighted up; and the lettere V and A, and the crown, were displayed with jets of gas in the window. On Tuesday, the rules for regulating the practice in bankruptcy and insolvency, approved by the Lord Chan cellor, were received in the Liverpool and other District Courts of Bankruptcy, and may be had, on application to the messengers of the respective courts. APPROACHING MARRIAGE: -.E.—Mohum Lal, the celebrated orientalist, at present in Dublin, will shortly lead to the hymeneal altar a beautiful young lady, a native of the Irish metropolis, and her entire family in tend to accompany the happy couple to Persia! Mohuni gave £lO,OOO towards the ransom of Lady Sale and Lady M`Naughten.—Limerick Chronicle. IN HIGH L THE EASTERN MAILS.—We understand that the Ad miralty have forwarded a letter, dated Friday, to the East India and China Association, intimating a fact which we are sure will be received with gratification by all connected with our Eastern commerce, namely, that arrangements have been made for the conveyance of the mails between Suez and Calcutta and China.—Globe. NEW RAILWAY.—A prospectus is now in circulation for a new intended railway from near the Northallerton station of the Great North of England, up the valley to Richmond, and to Appleby, falling in the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway, a few miles east of Carlisle. This route is said to be very easy, except for a short distance in crossing from one valley to another. —Doncaster Chron. Tux DECISIONS OF THE BOARD OF TRADE.—It was expected that Friday's Gazette would contain the deci sion of the Board of Trade with reference to the Kentish lines. he publication. however. has hepn dpfprred, al though it is understood that it will be given not later thus Tuesday. On that day also it is thought the decision as to the East Anglian schemes will appear—these forming the batch to be next brought under review.—Railway Record. THE SURPLICE.—We understand that on Sunday last the surplice very generally disappeared from the pal pits of the establishment in this county, the black gown being restored to the position to which it unquestionably possesses•a prescriptive right. The curate of Falmouth, and Mr. Batten, of the semi-popish chapel at Penzance, are the only clergymen we have heard of who still retain the " badge of a party" —a proof that candlesticksi, crosses, and surplice are inseparable.—Cornwall paper. LADY PEEL AND MISS FRANCES BROWN.—The fol lowing letter was sent by the Prime Minister to Miss Frances Brown, the blind poetess of Ulster, on Christ- mss-eve " Whitehall, Dec. 24. " Madam,—There is a fund applicable, as vacancies may occur, to the grai2t of annual pensions of very limited amount, which usage has paced at the disposal of the lady of the First Minister. On this fund there is a sur plus of £2O per annum.
