Sands, Turner, and Co., or the motives which induced such choice of time. These questions will form a subject o grave enquiry before the proper authorities. There are, however, one or two features in the letters of Mr. Corrie, read at the last Council Meeting, to which we may here, without impropriety, direct the attention of that body under whom the receiver of town duties holds his very responsible position. In one of the communications in question, Mr. Corrie intimated to the Council and the commercial world that the criterion of honesty on the part of a shipper of goods, as applied at the town dues office, was a faithful adherence to the description of such goods, as given to him by the consignor in hie advice note. What the Manchester exporter chooses to denominate a truss or a box, is only to be de scribed as such by the forwarding agent here ;. and all is en regle. This would be almost to dispense with our Consciences, our common sense, and our honesty, and, use only those of the public, whose goods are daily passing through our hands. We cannot agree with this ; and we much question if the Town-clerk, or any other legal authority, views our position in the same light as Mr. Corrie, or is prepared to say that we hold our right to the levy ing of town dues subject to the amount of honesty to be found in Manchester, Leeds, or else where, amongst the shippers who forward their goods from our port. We have a distinct right to certain specified rates, or we have not. If we have, Mr. Corrie's suggestion of the most orthodox mode of escaping the payment of those rates—a sugges tion wh:_eh will be pretty extensively acted upon-.. is very indiscreet ; and if we have not, it is disho nest in us to levy them from those coriscientiota people who do not resort to subterfuge to save their pockets. d yet how can we recon articles which constitute in tw the outward and inward A ton of coals is surely of BLOWING li-ouss.—On Thursday, Mr.. Rushton ac quitted a young. man belonging to one of the omnibuses, for blowing a horn in Netherfield-road. He said the ob ject of the act was to prevent sick persons and persons in offices and places of business in the crowded parts of the town from being. annoyed, but the blowing of the horn was positively a service to the public who wished to go by the omnibuses-. He, for one, was glad to hear it. The lad was cautioned not to blow where the least annoyance would be given; a•nd if any body asked him to desist, he must do so immediately.—[This is a sensible decision, but why is not Mr. Rushton consistent in allowing the blowing of the horn by the newsorien,which is "positively a service to the public" who wish to purchase any of the public journals.l value to a ton of salt this inex plica difference, in the of charge upon articles i recognised quanti rom being the most material subject of igainst the present mode of collecting Under some of the heads, we have A few words of advice to the Times,. in , conclusion.

MR. SAN , DS.—It is a strong point in Mr. Sandes fa vour, and one which we believe has not yet been noticed, thetas Chairman of the Dock Committee he took a very decided part in reference to the new regulations for the measurement of ships,—regulations pressing in an es. pecial manner upon American vessels, on account of their peculiar construction. This was a measure which Mr. Sands, as an American merchant, was particularly inter— ested, on private grounds, in opposing •; yet he was one of its most strenuous advocates. Had he been actuated by those narrow views of seMinterest which would have led him to evade the legal rate of dock dues for the sake of the petty saving to be thereby effected, it is utterly in conceivable that he should have supported a measure by which he would himself be subjected, simply for the ad vantage of the port, to very large additional payments. On the one hand, we are to believe, according to the data furnished by the collector of town-dues, that he was. sav ing: to his firm, at the expense of the town, a sum of about £2O per annum ; while on the other he was render ing them liable, for the sake of the town, to an inoreased annual charge, probably, of some hundreds ! Conduct such as this would imply a degree of inconsistency of which no man in his senses could be supposed capable.— Courier. rtes are pay Fi AT AIGBURTH.—On Wednesday evening a. fire was discovered in the stable of Mr. John Fletcher, Aig burth.

ACCIDENT AT PRESCOT.—On Thursday evening a melancholy accident occurred at Mr. Yates's coal-pit, Snig-lane, Prescot. It appears that a poor Irishman, named Dennis Stall, on the eve of his departure for Ire land, had gone to the pit to• take leave of some of his friends, who were employed at the colliery. After being engaged in conversation in a little cabin at the mouth of the pit, Stall got up and took his leave of his friends, but had scarcely got out of the cabin when, not knowing his way, he fell into the pit, and was dashed tapieces by the fall. His remains were got out by his companions, and carried into the town, where an inquest was held on the following day, before Mr. Heyes, the coroner, and a ver dict of " accidental death" returned. Th© poor man had returned from the harvest with his little savings, and was on the next day to have sailed for Ireland. sdescript HINTS FOR THE POOR LAW COMMISSIONERS.—The Liverpool Mercury concludes an article on the Report by. these gentry on " Local Taxation" as follows :—" Our readers will, of course, have surmised from the beginn ing, that all this was. to end in the glorifications of the Poor-law Commissioners, as the only fitting and proper body to take under their protection and management the whole local taxation of the country ; for the exception as to borough rates and county rates, which they introduce with a "perhaps" - in a parenthesis, is of course only tem porary. We do not see, indeed, why they should not. take upon themselves the superintendence of the general as well as the looal taxation of the country. There are great abuses in both, no doubt, and what saving might not be expected. in Customs, Excise d Stamp, and Post-_ office, if the three gentlemen of Scanerset House would kindly take the different departments upon themselves ? Nay, who knows but they might rid us of the expense and trouble of electinc , and maintaini ng a P ar li ament, which contains so man y black sheep, altogether, by vouch safing to discharge the functions which it so sadly. neg lects? Their, arguments against local representation would be equally applicable against parliamentary representation, and if carried into effect in both instances, how happy should , we be, having nothing to do with the taxes but to pay them,--nothing with the laws but to obey them, as impose& or enacted by tbe three kings of Somerset. House or their deputies." CASE OF EXTENSIVE EM TIEZZLEMENT.--It is but a short time since one of the- soliciting clerks- of Messrs. Mellor„ 'Spirit merchants, and distillers, Hunter-street, was committed for trial on. a charge of receiving, various monies for which he did not account to his employers ;• and yesterday, at the Police -court, another, a travelling clerk for the same concern, was brought before Mr. Rush ton on a similar charge„ but to a greater amount. The prisoner, a stout respectably-dressed middle aged men is named John Arnson, and has hithert, borne a charac ter above suspicion. Mr. Davenport appeared in his be half, but put few questions to the witnesses. Mr. John Mellor was the , complainant in the• case, and it ap peared that defalcations in giving credit to several custom ers for money received, had induced him to apply to the police commissioner, in order that the prisoner, who was, at the time absent, m i g ht b e secure d . Police-Officer Hal sall, an active and experienced hand, was employed on this service ' • and succeeded in app re h en di ng t h e pr i soner at the Parkside Station (of the Manchester and Liver pool Railway) just as he was getting into one of the car riages, and brought him to this town in custody. Halsall found upon him the sum of £3ll. 11;s. The first witness called was Mr. Henry Bagnall, spirit dealer, of Manches ter, who said he had an account with Messrs. Mellors, and paid to the prisoner on the 13th of May last, for which he had the prisoner's handwriting. The cash keeper at Messrs. Mellor's, said, that on the 15th of May, the prisoner credited Mr. Bagnall and paid over £lOO, but no more. On the sth of August, Mr. Bagnall further paid him £BO, which was not entered in Messrs. Mellor's books ; but there was paid over and credited to Mr. B. £l6O on the 10th of that month, and £llO on the 20th. Mr. Bagnall said he did not think he had paid prisoner £l6O on the lOth August, and his books were in Man chester ; but he had made a considerable payment to him in June, and it appeared there was a defalcation in the whole. A Mr. Ainscoe paid him £33 10s. on the 25th of October, which, and other items were not duly accounted for, or entered to his credit to that amount, though, (as we understood the evidence) he had a credit given of £4O 3s. ld on the 30th of that month. In reply to questions from Mr. Rushton, Mr. Mellor expressed his belief from the state of his own books and those of the other parties, that the prisoner had been in the habit (of which he had not before any suspicion) of returning the money collected from parties on one journey until he returned from the next. He further said he had had but little time to ex amine his hooks, but that he was afraid that all the defici encies in this case would exceed £looo.—Mr. Woolman, of Manchester, said he had, on. the 4th of October paid the prisoner £122. The credit that appeared shortly after that date was only £26 3s.—A Mr. Teming had paid two amounts on the 27th of Sept. —one of £33 19s. Od—and the other of £6l 2s, and they had no credit from that time, nor was the money accounted for. Mr. Jackson, of Manchester, had paid him three accounts on the 28th of Oct. —namely, £B6, £27, and £2O. The only credit was of £B2 ls. 4d. He had also paid on the 30th Sept. £3l 10s., which was not accounted for.—Mr. Rushton ordered the depositions to be taken, and when these were prepared nr,rl rn„,) L _ 1. up to pub robation as guilty of the atrocious for a " double skip," f mistaking a " skif for a " truss There surely here some ground for a careful by some competent authority, of these rates, and we trust that such a revision will be recommended by the committee appointed yester day. In fact, without some such revision, or a declaratory statement of the exact nature of these somewhat old fashioned terms, a bonus is held out PRESBYTERIAN MEETING.--011 113ursday evening last a numerous and respectable meeting of the Irish Presbyterians resident in this town was.held at the Bible Society's Room, Slater-street, for the purpose of adopting measures to raise a congregation in Liverpool in connexion with the Presbyterian General Assembly of Ireland. The chair was occupied by Mr. Samuel Bingham, who opened the meeting with prayer. A. great deal of valuable sta tistical information respecting this. body of people in Li verpool was laid before the meeting, all of a very satisfac tory nature, and several resolutions unanamiously adopted. The Commercial Hall, in Gloucester -street, over the Hallway Station, has been secured for the performance of divine worship, which is expected to commence on the second Sabbath in December. An eminent minister frara Ireland is expected to attend. for dishonesty, and respectable parties who imagine that they are conducting their concerns respectably, are every day becoming liable to be visited with the same imputations which have recently been directed against our chief magistrate. We must say, how ever, that the committee in question would for all purposes for the investigation into the charge Another passage in these communications relates to the particulars of an interview which took place at the town dues office between the receiver and Mr. James Parker, the member for St. Anne's Ward, — not Mr. C. S. Parker, as erroneously reported by several of our contemporaries. Mr. Carrie informed TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.—Yesterday, a. small token of respect was presented to the Rev. Joseph Henry Stephen son, by the congregation of Trinity Church, Southport, in remembrance of the faithful manner in which, he fulfilled the duties of the sacred °flue during the temporary ab sence, on account of the indisposition of his family, of the much-respected Incumbent of the church. The present consisted of a silver tea-pot, cream-jug,, and sugar-basin, bearing the. following inscription :—" Piesented to the Rev. Joseph Henry Stephenson, A. 8., by a few members of the congregation of 'Trinity Church, as a sincere proof that his ministerial services are held in the highest esti mation." Mr. Stephenson forwarded to the subscribers, upwards of 100 in number, an address, in which, after alluding to his inability adequately to express his feelings, he says, " Believe me, that while I shall ever look back abashed at much personal deficiency, the remembrance of the year, which in the providence of God, and through the instrumentality of our much revered diocesan, it has been my privilege to spend within your circle, will here after be cherished amongst my most delightful recollec tions. I cannot conclude without expressing my delight that I take my leave of you amidst so many favourable congregational circumstances, your church now owing little more than its debt of love,' and your school—so noble an evidence of Christian liberality—already risen ad joining it, and but waiting for returning spring to open its doors to the lambs of the flock ! I earnestly pray, that both your minister and yourselves may reap in future blessings the fullest reward of your generosity and kind ness." against Mr. Sands, and f or an y recommendation to the Council upon the subject of the existing scale of dock dues—he much improved by the infusion into it of a little democratic blood. The case at issue, in the latter inquiry especially, is one which is deeply interesting to the burgesses of the town, as well as to the mercantile interest; and it is scarcely likely that any decision to which it may come the Council that Mr. Parker had called upon him and gave the conversation which passed, in some thing like the following amusing and dramatic THEFT OF A VALUABLE BOX FROM THE QUAY. . --I n the begining of the present month, a large box, belonging to a passenger by one of the Glasgow steamers, was landed at the quay near the Prince's pierhead, and soon after disappeared. Information was given to the police, and enquiry being set on foot, and bills printed, a clue was found to a part of the property, and a young man, named Hugh Frazer, was yesterday brought up at the police-court for examination. It appeared that on Satur day last the prisoner had offered several silver spoons and a pair of sugar tongs in pledge, at the shop of Mr. M'Pherson, Tithebarn-street, and, as they answered the description given, he was detained, and an officer was sent for. Mrs. Isabella said that she arrived from Greenock a few weeks ago, and had the box landed. It contained the spoons, some trinckets, beads, two Bibles, and a variety of other articles, worth in all about £2O. She identified the spoons, &c., both by their appearance and the initials upon them. Three pawn-tickets, from different shops, were also found upon the prisoner for other parts of the property, which was also produced and identified. About the value of £5 out of the £2O is all that is yet recovered. The prisoner told an improbable story of having found the articles in '" George's -square," which he afterwards changed to " Wolstenholm-square." He was committed for trial. seen that the c mittee, ar MANOR LEET OF SEACOMBE.—On Wednesday last, according to usual custom, the Manor Leet of Seacombe was held at Parry's hotel, for the purpose of adjusting any differences between Richard Smith, Esq., of Bankfield house, Ulverston, the Lord of the Manor, of Poulton cum-Seacombe, and the tenantry. A jury was empan. elled, and the general formalities of the court gone through ; after which about twenty-six gentlemen sat down to a sumptuous dinner, prepared in the well known style of Mrs. Parry, whose name is a sufficient guarantee for all that is good in the culinary department.—Amongst the gentlemen present were—T. K. Hassall, Esq., solicitor, in the chair, Henry Meadows, Esq., Manor-house, Poul ton, vice-chairman ; Major Fletcher, Dr. Halliday, D r . Ellis, John Parry, Esq., Richard Parry, Esq., John Twi name, Esq., John Crump, Esq., William Haselden, Esq., Clarkson, Esq., Murphy, Esq., &c., &c. After dinner many loyal and appropriate toasts were given, and all responded to in neat and pithy addresses. The reply of Mr. Richard Parry, when the town and trade of Seacombe was drunk, was exceedingly sarcastic and face tious. He said, that in consequence of what was going on at this side of the water (Cheshire), he supposed the people on the other side (Liverpool) would be stirring all the powers in the world to keep their preeminence ; but do what they could they would never arrive at what the town of Seacombe then was !—Mr. Hendrick, the " poet laureate" of Seacombe, favoured the company with an amusing song written expressly for the occasion, which ed with roars of laughter. Suffice it to say, the evening was concluded in the most pleasant and convivial • • - gpnarated at a late hour, highly de- CHARGE OF HORSE STEALING.—Three men—Oakley, Lewis, and Hughes, were placed before Mr. Rushton, on Saturday last, on a charge of having assaulted George Carter, and stolen from him a horse. It appeared, from the statement of the complainant, that he resided in Cas tle-street, Kirkdale, and kept cars for hire. On Saturday week he purchased a horse at Lucas's Repository, from a person named Stanley, and had it in use on Monday and Tuesday following. On Tuesday night, however, about half-past nine o'clock, as he was about to put the horse into his stable, the three prisoners came up, assaulted him, and took away the horse. A witness named Davis confirmed this statement of the aggression. From the evidence for the prisoners, it appeared that Stanley, the previous owner of the horse, had been in difficulties, and in order to save the horse, car, and harness, made them over, in a friendly way, to a person named Robert Abra ham, to whom, it appeared, he was indebted in the sum of £35, which he was in progress of paying off by instal ments. Abraham, however, apprehensive that he would not get all his money, sold the horse, car, &c., to Oakley, one of the prisoners, for £l3. Stanley was not satisfied with the sale, and finding the property in the possession of Oakley, in Scotland-road, he took it from him, and afterwards sold the horse to Carter for £4 10s.—The charge for horse-stealing was abandoned, and Mr. Rush ton ordered that the animal should be restored to Carter, stating, that if the original owners felt themselves ag grieved, they might have their remedy by an action at law; but as the prisoners were charged with having com mitted an assault upon the complainant, they were re manded, so that further evidence might he brought—if further could be asichiced — UPOß that part of the char., of the ;1i; ► : iuct chargev It having become known that our newly-elected Mayor . - ss e have this day to direct the attention of our readers (Thomas Sands, Esq.) attended by the officers of the to an attack upon the character of the proprietors of the corporation, and such friends as might desire to accompany ot the University of Oxford ; and the correspondent of a --oi There is a tone of authority here which might in- Liverpool Standard, which, had the writer's ability to hirsowould proceed onSunday from the Town Hall to attend contemporary journal has suggested Mr W.

Now we would suggest to Mr. Corrie that, in a communication of a strictly official nature, it was not necessary to say whether a gentleman with whom he has had an interview on official business, " made a low bow" before leaving the room, or whether he commenced reading at Aor B. Mr. Corrie's duty was simply to state facts, and as many of them as he thought proper; but he was not required to be at all funny at the expense of Mr. Parker or any other member of the Council. ROBBERY FROM A FLAT.—A youth named James Ed wards, alias Williams, was yesterday charged at the Police Court with having stolen from the cabin of the flat Mary Jane, lying near the Queen's Dock, a cap, a waist coat, a shirt, and other articles of wearing apparel. It appeared that the mister of the flat had left her about 3 o'clock on Friday afternoon, and the articles were then safe and locked in the drawers. It was afterwards found that the locks had all been forced, the drawers upset, and the goods abstracted. About half-past five the same night, police-constable Marks observed the prisoner on the west side Queen's Dock, with a pilot-coat on, and asked him what vessel he belonged to—to which he replied " the Itapia. him, an as . discovered enquiry ben I nII fhp and identifit the coat, we animittecl with exeeption of was rec TUESDAY 31 In turnin ttowj estate, to arise from th to these I scAlo rich m town at large, when it is ointed to decide it, is sfactory to ti: entirely of men extensively engaged in payers of town dues, thout one representative of purely local interests. tile affairs, and large The proceedings against O'Connell and his confe drag their slow length along" at a pace rtainly does not afford us any prospect of y termination.
