AUG. 15, 1848 took place in the Coun ng the Report of the S bject of local rates, , involved i —the pro pric Dock and Corporate estat lye had a large amount o h, whilst its opponent —is a nev have a st rong ad captandum case, in favour of the exemption of these estates from any contribution towards the public burthens, in which they are, and will be, hacked by a large portion of the pub lic out of the borough of Liverpool. Under all the circumstances, we regard the defeat as a most en couraging one ; and venture to predict that the next, or a very early appeal to the Council, will he triumphantly successful, so far as that body has power to effect the required object. We shall take the liberty of canvassing a few of the objections raised by various speakers ; and first, with respect to the proposal to rate the Dock Estate. It is urged that this estate is a public property, held on trust by the Dock Trustees for the bene fit of the commerce of the whole empire; and, as such, ought to be exempt from contributing to the burthens of the locality in which it is situated ; that, by so rating it, we shall, in fact, be levying a tax upon the trade and consumption of the entire kingdom. The argument is certainly plausible; but no more. The Dock Trustees are neither bound, nor permitted, to exercise their trust for the benefit of the public, solely. There is no power in the legislature to compel them to reduce their rates, for instance ; and all past reductions have been made on local grounds, viz., to attract com merce to the port. The estate has invariab:y been treated by parliament as a local estate, bound to contribute as much as possible to the convenience and comfort of the local population; and the ap plication of the question of locality has even been extended in favour of the opposite strand, as wit ness our spacious marine parades, our noble land ing steps, and, more recently, an expenditure of sixty thousand pounds, for the accommodation of the river steamers. As a constitutional question, too, all precedent is in favour of the rating. We make all other bodies, drawing a revenue from any locality, contribute to the support of the poor, whom they attract to that locality; and, in the case of railways, we levy the tax, not upon the original value of the land occupied, but upon the increased value given to it by the outlay of immense capital. On the ground of justice to the ratepayers of the town, the case for rating the Dock Estate is very strong—is, in fact, unassailable. Trace the parish of Liverpool upon the map, and what is it ? A narrow strip of land running parallel with the river, above a Mae from what was once the strand. Yet upon the population located within this limited area is saddled the whole of the pauperism inevitable wherever there is a large and fluctuating market for labour; whilst, year by year, we are encroaching upon that area with our dock works, and thus decreasing the number of the population so rated, and the consequent pressure of the burthen upon each. To form the Albert Dock and Warehouses we swept away a mass of valuable warehouse and other property. We have occupied a large space of building ground with the canal docks at the north end of the town, which would ultimately have been built upon and contributed to our local funds. We are about to pull down a mass of streets and whrehouses at Wapping, by the conversion of which into non-ratepaying docks the parish will become serious losers; and contempo raneously with, and as a result of this gradual ap sorption of the area of the town, we see our mer chants and tradesmen—all classes, in fact, except our shopkeepers, and those who are bound to their several business localities—getting beyond the parish boundaries, whilst their former residences are converted into dwellings, or apartments, for the working classes. Moreover, Liverpool, to the ex clusion of the out-townships, has to contend sin gle-handed with the increasing shoals of pauperism which Ireland casts upon our shores, and which we must either pay for keeping until drawn off by the demand for labour in the manufacturing dis tricts, or be at the expense of sending back to their own country. Certainly, in justice, the Dock Es tate, take it even as a strictly public property, ought to bear some portion of the burthen which it thus creates. Parliament, however powerfully appealed to, could never vindicate that public selfishness which would crush a community so situated. At least, if our docks are to be worked as for the na tion alone, exclusively of local considerations and claims, the nation, and not the parish of Liverpool, ought to support the burthens which they entail in no pl We are quite aware how advisable it is that the dock accommodation of Liverpool should be pro vided at as low a price as possible; but we cannot htest alarm on this score. Al- entertain tlr arswer all the purposes of St. George's Hall; and that his Worship might entertain the public on sandwiches and ginger beer, yet we really think that the good old town► would lose more than it would gain by such meanness. Whatever may have been the cost of St. George's Flail, we have at length a building a hich Liverpool may well be proud of ; and though two thousand a-year spent in good dinners at the town-hall may appear to some rigid Utili tarians to be thrown away ' thinking that the town has obtained its sndfriendly spirit wl► of the town-h - all have dif not only rendered the int we cannot help the itn Fused t rtial civic Hospitalities .ough society, which has y bringing cePt in angry conflict." On mature consideration, however, our contem has been, we think, far from proving his )1 is the un healthiest town in England," it occurs to us that nfr tT been considered bet)re t Hall.

Besides, what thousand pound either. Worst We have no wish, for instan . c ip the Mayo ntertaining the public on andwiChes am ix'inger be is, however, a Whig precedent 'fora diet little better, that £2OOO per annum notwithstanding ;—and we should be the last in the world to wish to see him deprived of the means of providing that good cheer, which our . contemporary describes as having such a remark able effect, in bringing about harmony amongst people, who would otherwise be disposed to be cut ting each other's throats. We are also quite agreed with the views of the Special Committee, as to the rating of the owners of all property, whether large or small, within the borough. There may be abundant reasons given for omitting to tax the occupiers of cottage pro perty, the most irresistible of which is the difficulty of collecting and apportioning the rates. But there is no valid reason why a mass of property, amount ing to one-fourth of the entire yearly rental of the rateable property within the borough, and noto riously the best tenanted, and yielding the best return, should be permitted to escape taxation. It is not true that the payment, if insisted upon, would fall upon the poorer classes of our population, and thus be productive of hardship upon those who are the least able to pay, unless, by reducing the return for capital invested in such property, we withdraw the inducement to build it. We have no fear of this, however. There is an ample margin at pre sent between the return made by cottage houses and those of a better class; and from present ap pearances we should much rather expect to see the small portion of vacant land remaining within the borough appropriated for cottages than for any other species of property. It is not at all unlikely either that, in a few years, we may see a large por tion of the household property of the better class in some of our streets either pulled down and replaced with cottage property, or converted into smaller tenements for our working classes. For the present the Council, by an unexpectedly small majority, and in a very small meeting—it seems by the way as if some gentlemen were not over much disposed to commit themselves on the question—have decided against the recommenda- lions of the Select Committee. There are some good names, however, both Whig and Conservative, in the minority; and, sooner or later, the voice of public opinion will carry the question. To Mr. Parker, its zealous advocate in the Council, and to those who have supported his efforts, we recom mend a little further pressure, and the constituen cies as well must do their duty on the first of November. WE regret much to learn that a misapprehen sion has prevailed in some quarters, with respect to a paragraph which appeared in our publication of this day fortnight. We stated, in the paragraph in question, what had come to our ears from trust worthy sources, that in some wards, in which the present Conservative members had displeased their constituencies by their proceedings with respect to the water question, it would he attempted to make use of the strong feeling existing in opposition to the Rivington scheme, for the purpose of procuring the return of candidates opposed to it, but, in other respects, of Whig-Radical politics. In short, a party manoeuvre was to be attempted, against which we conceived it to be our duty, as Conser vative journalists, to warn our readers. It has been imagined, on what grounds we can not at all conceive, that our remarks were pointed at a public body in our town—the National Con federation. Nothing certainly could be further from our intention. We have, from the first day of its formation, expressed our decided approval of the objects of that body; and up to this hour we are not aware that they have deviated from a straightforward pursuit of that object—the revision, equalization, and, were it possible, the economiza tion of our local imposts. Already the fruits of their exertions are manifesting themselves in the increased attention bestowed by the rate-paying public upon their own interests, and in the efforts making by them to assert their just claims to the consideration of the authorities. Under such cir cumstances, we could never have dreamt of im parting to that body the degradation of lending their deserved influence to any mean party trick, or of mixing themselves up with the petty machi nations of ward juntas. We cannot consent to recognise party politics as affecting the proceedings of such a body, knowing, as they must themselves know, that the instant they diverge from the path of duty which they have marked out, they must cease to merit the respect and confidence of their fellow-townsmen. BUT a few days ago, Whig-Radicalism was in an extacy of thankfulness. We had escaped the hor rors of a rebellion in Ireland, of which this feeble party had sown the seeds and watered them by years of pandering to agitation, and of trafficking for place with its incendiary leaders. An outbreak among the disaffected Irish in our own town had also been repressed by the foresight and firmness of the magistracy, aided by the loyal portion of our population ; and our local " Liberals" and their organs, in the exuberance of their happiness, could almost afford to be honest, and to give honour where honour was due. We imagined, indeed, that byegones were to remain byegones; that the ban was now to he taken off a class of our fellow countrymen who, reviled though they have been, and persecuted for their steady maintenance of Protestantism and of loyalty to the throne and the constitution, had proved themselves our best reli- ante in the hour of nd and in our own town ; that, in Short, to be an Irish or an Orange Protestant was no longer to he treated as a crime or a reproach. We might almost be excuse& if we were even sanguine enough to hope for a further result of the lesson which had been taught us. We imagined that Liberalism, even, would henceforth be slow in bestowing its sympathies upon the bleatings of Irish grievance mongers ; that it would be some time before its oracles would proclaim themselves the champions of men whose hands were so recently prepared to fill our town—the town which received them in their nakedness, and has so largely re- warded their unworthines -with bloodshed and even in .qulvalen Tilt iiiiiititioi iiiii,iiiiiii It may be a private move on the part of our con temporary ;---a gasping effort to win back again the subscriptions lost by a month's enforced advocacy of the cause of peace and order. It is grievous to find one's lucubrations rejected by the beer-houses of Vauxhall-road and Mary bone, and our attempted smartnesses no longer expand dolourously the faces of wondering Paddies and Terences. It tells upon the till; and the till is a sensitive monitor. We shall, therefore, he more certain to place our hands on the right offender if we direct the few remarks which we have to make to the Mercury himself, as the author of the article which has called them forth. Our contemporary informs ue, as a matter of great enormity, that there exists at present " a growing feeling of animosity between the English and the Irish portion of our fellow-townsmen ;" and that he receives, day after day, " letters fraught with hostile expressions against Irish workmen residing here." Two letters, of the kind referred to, he gives us as specimens ; against the first of which we have very little exception to make. The other, however, a threatening letter, purporting to be signed " true orangemen," is obviously a for gery; or, if really written by some bad member of the order, is very disreputable, put forward to throw disrepute upon a body of men, to whose tried and active loyalty, which even the Mercury dares not deny, the entire community is under recent and deep obligations, and who would be amongst the foremost to discountenance so vile a production. Possibly there may exist in some establishments, where numbers of workmen are employed, a little soreness of feeling, such as that complained of. It is only natural, when we witness ingratitude so base as that which has been shown by the rebellious in Ireland, and by too many of their fellow countrymen here, that such a feeling should be created. It was predicted that it would be so. There is a limit to every man's forbearance. The most pacific Englishman will feel repugnance to working at the same bench, the same forge, or the same table, with a fellow who, he knows, has a pike at home ready, and every disposition to use it, for an onslaught upon his life. But that it ever has, or will be, pushed to the length of perse cution of the Irish workmen, or dictation towards their employers, is—what the Journal calls it— . . " nonsense." The wish is only father to the thought, on the part of a certain description of people. Such oracles as the Mercury would only be too glad to find our loyal Protestant working classes so committing themselves. We can assure the Mercury, however, that this " feeling of animosity between the English and Irish portion of our humbler townsmen," is no great novelty after all—no surprising discovery. For some time past it has existed; and, strange as it may appear to our innocent contemporary, it is his own innocent lambs—the Irish Repealers—by whom the hand of aggression has been raised. For months past the English and the Irish Protestant labourer has been treated openly by his Roman Catholic fellow workmen as a proscribed being— one whose privileges and even life were only to be tolerated until the signal was given by the O'Briens and other rebellious incendiaries in the sister isle. Wherever the ranks of disaffection was strong enough, the Protestant labourer or artisan has been a proscribed being; pointed at, threatened, and even openly insulted. We have evidence before us of men who have been living for months past in constont expectation of outrage, either out of doors or at home ; and yet who have rendered their un bought and unasked services to the cause of order, These men look naturally for the return which is their due—protection and encouragement; and surely they are not unreasonable in so doing. It map be " liberal" to deny him such a return ; to say to discomfited traitors—" you have failed in your hopes of cutting our throats, or destroying our property, and you shall nevertheless remain our bosom friends and most trusted companions ;" but " liberalism" so extraordinarily confiding is, to our minds, little short of insanity. It is unnatural and wholly irrational. Our contemporary appeals—ad misericordiam— to the fact that there are "good and true" Irishmen in such a town as this; and that the same measure of punishment ought not to be entended to them which we visit upon those of their fellow-country men who " evince ingratitude, indolence, filth, and seditious tendencies." Of course not. But does he suppose that the indolent and seditious amongst the Irish of our town are not tolerably well known to those with whom they come into daily contact ? We never heard that Irish disaffection was particu larly close mouthed. On the contrary, we believe that the pikemen and the clubbists among them are tolerably well known, their own being the tongues which have given information against them. But let us come to our contemporary's sugges tion of a new subject of agitation—the new compact which is to re-unite Whig-Radical sympathy and Irish bawling. The Mercury says that "it has been wished by many of our townsmen," that the Irish should get up a peaceable agitation for a do mestic council of representatives, in each of the three kingdoms, for local purposes; and that such an agitation would have " a large amount of sup port from the press, and from men who are always good indicators of public opinion on constitutional questions"—referring, of course, to himself as one of those good indicators, Of course the idea of such domestic councils of representatives is sheer rubbish; and the suggestion is only worthy of so very small a philosopher. Talking to Irishmen, now, of a domestic council of repres-ntatives, for the discussion of local questions is only a silly attempt to reconstruct the old frail m Ichinery by which Whig-Radicalism has for years made the folly and the turbulence of Ireland its stepping stone to power. A people who were so lately ready, or professedly ready, to fight for absolute separation and a republic, are not likely to be tickled with the notion of legislative powers, resembling those of a parish vestry. The whole humbug of separate government must be whipped out of them, not resuscitated to please such good indicators of public opinion as the conductors of the Liverpool Mercury. For the future we must not tolerate such storms even in so small a sphere as a teacup. In conclusion, we would seriously advise our contemporary to get rid of this excessive sympathy manifested towards defected rebellion, and advise him to be manly, as the authorities of our town have proved themselves to he, in acknowledging the claims of loyalty, and shaking off ancient pre judices against a valuable and persecuted portion of their fellow townsmen. The Orange Protestants of Liverpool were called upon, as a body, to perform their duty in a serious emergency; and they ful filled to the letter the expectations of their friends and the authorities. It• is not the time, yet, to subject them again to the reproach of the commu nity, whom they have aided to preserve. They shall not, if we can aid them, be offered up as a holocaust to buy bark the lost circulation of the Mercury amongst their disaffected fellow country men ; and, indeed, we don't think the sacrifice would be accepted. Our contemporary refused to hold the clothes of the would-be belligerent Paddies; he would not march through Coventry with their ragged pikemen ; and he will not succeed in win ning back their confidence by presenting himself, now that the danger is over, with a plaster, a few hebdomadal drops of soothing syrup, and a washy, dirty, water-draught. IWe u FOUR MEN APPREHENDEI I S IN THE NIGHT WITH TWO FOWLING-PIECES IN THEIR POSSESSION. Yesterday, four respectable-looking workmen, Robert Donaldson, William Garrie, George Burness, and John Fuller, were placed at the bar of the Police-court, on the charge of having been found with two guns and certain ammunition in their possession, at the north end of the town, on Saturday night last. Police officer 460 said that about midnight he saw the four prisoners with the guns produced (one a doubed barrelled, and the other a single barrelled fowling-piece). He questioned them about car rying such weapons, and they at first offered no explana tion ' • but aferwards said they had been gull shooting at Bootle, and then that they had been sparrow shooting. A powder-flask and some percussion-caps were also found upon them (produced), sc that he and other officers ap prehended them. Mr. Owen, who appeared for the prisoners, said there was no case against the prisoners at all, and complained that they had been harshly sent from one bridewell to an other, and incarcerated from Saturday night until the pre sent time. I,The simple facts were, that the prisoners, were respectable men employed at Messrs. Bury and Co.'s foundry ' • and that on Saturday evening after their work they had gone out to amuse themselves on Bootle sands; had got into a public-house, where they sat some time, and were on their road home quietly and peaceably, when they were apprehended. Mr. Rushton said (in effect), in reply to these and other remarks, that inquiry should be made as to the al leged unnecessary removal of the prisoners from place to place, and if a wrong had been done it would be redressed : but he did not concur with Mr. Owen in thinking the offi cers had acted wrong in apprehending persons found with fire-arms in their hands in the dead of night, at a time when the public mind was so much excited, and the town held in alarm by evil disposed persons. He knew of no law here that prevented the possession of fowling pieces, or the carrying of them in a quiet manner in pursuing amusement ; but the authorities were in possession of in formation that rendered it necessary to adopt precautions ; and the officers had received instructions to apprehend all parties or bodies of persons carrying arms in the street, especially at untimely hours. Hitherto the town, to its honour, had been one of the most loyal and peaceful in the United Kingdom, and he regretted much that the precau tions now taken to preserve the peace should be necessary. It was not his business to state the nature of the informa tion which the magistrates had received, for it did not bear upon this case. Addressing the prisoners, he said the present case was a specimen of what might befal the town, if working men were to carry arms about. Ile was sorry, if they were of creditable character, as stated, that they had been detained ; but what could they expect if they were found armed at such hours ! He then dis charged them. Shortly afterwards Mr. Owen applied for the restoration of the guns. Mr. Rushton said that they would be given in the usual manner, if the Head Consta ble found, upon inquiry, that the characters of the men were such as had been represented.—Mr. Owen expressed his satisfaction. THE WATER QUESTION.-DECISION OF THE WATER COMMITTEE. We understand that at ameetinr of the Water Committee nn Friday, to consider the further prosecution of the Rivington scheme, a resolution to the following effect was passed :—" That, in the opinion of your committee, it is essential for the public interest that no further delay should take place in proceeding with the construction of these works; and they, therefore, recommend that the committee be authorised to take steps for that purpose." It is clear that every effort will now be made to press on this objectionable measure without further enquiry. Whatever steps are taken to prevent this, should be prompt and decisive. We have received a number of complaints from parties who have had no water supplied to their pre mises since Friday. We hope some member of the Council will try to ascertain to-morrow why the daily sup-ay has been discontinued. We stated several weeks since that there was abundance of water to give an ample daily supply to all the inhabitants, and we asked, Why was it withheld ? We can only repeat the question. Surely our representatives in the Council-chamber will not allow another meeting of that body to pass over with out insisting on a satisfactory answer to the complaint. YESTERDAY'S POLICE, ALLEGED UTTERANCE OF A FORGED I. 0. U.—Yesterday, at the Police-court, a respectable-looking man, named Charles Spence, and an elderly female, Eliza Spence, were charged by a young man, named Thomas Frazer, with having uttered to him a forged 1. O. U. for .e 3. Frazer, on cross-examination, gave such loose answers that the probability appeared to be that the document was genuine, and the magistrate discharged the prisoners. . _ _ ATTEMPTEDTHEFT FROM AN INN.—Yesterday, at the Police court, a young man, named William Trafford, was committed for trial, charged by Mr. William Liversedge, publican, of Burlington-street, with having clandestinely entered his house, on Saturday night, and feloniously removed several articles of value. He had put some of the complainant's clothes over and under his own ; had moved several valuables, including a handsome time-piece, which he had placed on the landing of the stairs. A silver snuff-box, a gold locket, &c., were found concealed in his boots. Upon him, too, was found a watch, with a gold chain attached. CHARGE OF PRESENTING A FALSE ORDER FOR WAGES.— At the Police-court yesterday, a young seaman named Charles Longman, was charged by Mr. H. Bartley, with this offence. On Saturday last, the prisoner took the order in question, which was for .t'l4, to Mr. Hartley, of Waterloo-road, fitter-out, and obtained by means of it and his representations asuit of clothes, and a sum of money. On the order being presented, it was declared to bear a forged signature. It purported to be signed by Capt. llPMillan, of the Guatemala ; but two witnesses from Messrs. Prowse, swore it was not his signature. The prisoner in his defence said it positively was signed by the Captain. The prisoner was committed for trial at the Assizes. MANUFACTURE OF PIKES IN LIVERPOOL.—SOHIe few weeks ago a police-officer, who is by trade a smith, went in the garb of a workman into a blacksmith's shop in this town, where he suspected something not usual was going on, and inquired for employment. The man to whom he addressed himself having apparently some suspicion that he was not truly representing himself, asked him to give them "a heat," to show whether he was a good hand, which he did by heating a piece of iron, and fastening it neatly on the anvil. Confidence in him being thus formed, he was told that they could not then give him a job, as they had but four forges, three of which were in active use for the making of pikes, but that he might call again in a few days, and they would see what they could do. Ten thousand pineapples, shipped at Nassau, N.P., have arrived at this port in excellent condition. On Sunday, the body of a new-born child was found in St. Martin's Churchyard. On Thursday the 17th instant, will be launched from the building yard of Messrs. Cato, Miller, and Co., a fine new ship, 600 tons, classed 13 years A 1 at Lloyds. On Friday the special constables of Pitt-street Ward— Lieut. Maxwell in the chair—passed a resolution of thanks to the Mayor and magistrates for the efficient manner in which the peace of the town has been preserved. On Saturday night, a married woman named Fogan, living in St. Andrew-street, went to bed with her son Francis. At about three in the morning she awoke and found the child dead in her arms—supposed to be from convulsions. THE WEATHER. — For the last seven days the weather has again been variable on the whole, but the quantity of rain that fell was much less than during the previous week. Saturday and Sunday ware warm and sunny— greatly promoting the ripening of the grain. Yesterday forenoon the barometer had fallen a little, and a little rain fell ; the wind, which veered from point, being, at ten o'clock, about S.E., which is here a rather watery direction. A good deal of oats have already been cut and carried in forward shots ; little of the wheat has yet been gathered ; both are good crops. The other field crops, especially turnips and mange's, are most promising, as are the after-grasses. It is very generally thought that more rain fell in July than is borne out by measurement. The average here was only (in.) 2.51, much less than in the previous month. In Manchester, where the average fall of the last 19 Julys was 3.74, the fall was, in the July of this year, 4.045 inches. Notwithstanding the cry of the rot, which is much exaggerated, we have abundance of potatoes in our market at 6d. per score. The glass fell a little yesterday, but only a little, and that gradually. Some slight rain fell during the afternoon. We have had a great deal of humidity for the last week or two. We re gret to learn, from some of the Irish papers, that the po tato blight had appeared to a great extent, in several of the southern districts, especially near Clonmel. The heavy rains had done considerable injury to the wheats. While on this subject we may state, as the concurrent opinions of the United States journals, that a much greater breadth of wheat was this year sown in that country than in any previous year, and that it is expected the yield will be so abundant that the whole of Europe may be thence supplied, should even large deficiencies arise. OPENING OF TUE NEW ORGAN AT ST. PAUL'S CHURCH, PRINCE'S PARE.—Sunday last having been appointed for the opening of this splendid instrument, built by Bew slier of Liverpool, the church was crowded during the morning and evening services, especially the latter ; and • . amongst those present we noticed our excellent chief magistrate, T. B. Horsfall, Esq., and several members of the Town Council. The organ surpassed the expec tations of all who had the gratification of playing upon, and listening to it, at the builder's rooms ; for, its loud volume of tone completely filled the church, while its lower notes, giving forth 1 ;A sound so fine, that nothing lived 'Tween it and silence," verpoo. f Shroi ierstand that a Cricket match will be played ground. Wavertree-lane. be- SERMON OF AN AFRICAN CLERGYMAN IN AID OF THE ERECTION OF AN EPISCOPAL CHURCH FOR HIS FLOCK IN NEW-YORK. The Rev. Alexander Crumell, one of the only four ep ;:copally ordained African clergymen in the United States, has been residing for some days, on a visit, with t h e /L ey. Ewbank, of Everton, to whom, as well as to many o f our v orchmen he was known by reputation, an d byl o letter.:k exclusively AI r . Crumell his has own a large race highly congregation mreco m in e n x d e e Li m and the object of his mission is to obtain contributions to wards the erectio . l of ao episcopal church for his increasing congregation in that eitv, in which there is a large negro population, deprived of almost every means of spiritual instruction or education that may elevate them in the scale of humanity and religion, owing to the unhappy prejudices which exist against them even in that "land of the free." Mr. Crumell read prayers on Wednesday evening last roost impressively in Mr. Ewbank's church, ( St. George's, Everton,) and having obtained leave to preach on Sunday forenoon at the same place, public no tice was given, and much interest was naturally excited, from curiosity to hear a negro preacher, and still more, we trust, from a desire to promote his benevolent object. The church was crowded by a most respectable congre gation to repletion—many parties being unable to obtain seats, and fain to stand at the entrances, and many more obliged to retire, hopeless of even this last accommodation. The free seats were firmly packed, as well as the organ gallery. Everything was done by the vergers to accom modate as many as possible, by introducing school forms at the ends of the aisles, &c., and their attention in this respect was quiet and unremitting until service had far progressed. All eyes were rivetted on the preacher as he ascended the pulpit. He is a good-looking man of small stature, with an intelligent countenance so removed from the coarseness of a large portion of his race that, but for his sable complexion and thick frizzly hair, it might be said to be European. His voice is strong and manly ; his articu lation so clear, and his pronunciation of the English lan guage so generally accurate, with, at the same time, a rapid flow of words and a modesty of bearing, that he immediately won the deep attention of his hearers; the first general feeling being that of astonishment. His powers as a preacher we shall hereafter allude to. After a brief prayer, he took for his text a clause from the Bth of the 3d chapter of St. Paul's Epistle to Titus— " That they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works." He opened his discourse by an exposition of the nature, duties, and objects of Christi anity, dwelling especially on the obligation of all to re deem the human race from sin to salvation. The object was at once grand and majestic. The promulgation of Christian truth was not only incumbent, but necessary. Science had taken rapid strides of late years ; wind and tide had been almost overcome ; transit from place to place had been wonderfully accelerated ; the busy wheel of the steamer had almost superseded the sluggish sail ; and a velocity had been attained on shore almost ap proaching the lightning's speed. But they must not let physical advancement exceed spiritual advancement, which last was also proceeding, as was happily manifested in many parts of the world. He alluded to the retardations as regards the last, by false reasoners and infidel writers ; to the idolatry and paganism that still prevailed over the greater portion of the earth, and to the Romanism which still presented its brazen front. Millions of their fellow men were yet in chains, and left in ignorance, and the slave-trade was yet carried on in an aggravated state. He trusted, however, that the time would come when these evils would be removed, and that Christians would work together until the last slave-ship had disappeared, the last groan of suffering humanity had died away, and all the nations of the earth should acknowledge Christ as their sole ruler and Redeemer. He appeared before them as one of the most helpless and forlorn of the races of men. His countrymen had had to undergo a fiery ordeal, and had long been subjected to the grossest tyranny. Africa had long been a prey to fire, famine, and the sword. The slave-trade had there destroyed domestic peace and affec tion, and engendered even murder among families. From the land of his fathers ascended the cries and the groans of the oppressed. England had done herself immortal honour by abolishing slavery in her colonies. France and Germany had followed the noble example, and it was hoped Holland and other countries would yet join them. They might deem it strange that he should come from so opulent a city as New York to solicit aid in England, but a brief statement would serve to explain. There were in the United States a vast number of slaves, who were bought and sold like cattle. Husbands were torn from their wives, children from their parents, and the whip was applied to the quivering flesh of even women and children. There was not one out of 1000 of them who had ever heard of the Gospel. In the Northern States slavery did not exist ; but the Africans were excluded, by cast, from trades or social intercourse, as if they were a separate order of beings. If they attended a church they were placed apart, and dare not (as he had that day done there) approach the Communion Table. They were also ex cluded from the schools, and their remains when dead, from the church-yard, Without, therefore, a hope of advancement in life, they grew up in vice, and often fell into premature graves. There were 400,000 of them without culture, and in the Southern States education was forbidden amongst them. In New York there were between 20,000 and 30,000. Many of these had no church to attend. His own church, which had been es tablished 13 years, was a hired room. He had there ministered for 10 years. The natives had no regard for them, and he had thought of following his predeces sor to Africa ; but had come to this city in hopes of meeting with ready sympathy and assistance in be half of his poor benighted countrymen. To their labour were the merchants of this great port indebted for some of their staple commodities. He had come to implore their aid to elevate them to the dignified station of men and Christians,—for they wanted education, but still more the Gospel. If his hearers would reflect that his country men had souls, they would surely assist him to redeem them from their abject condition. He wanted friends to purchase a site, and to build upon it a church for his in creasing congregation. the Bishops of London, Oxford, and Landaff, to whom he had been recommended, had ap proved of his mission, and a committee bad been formed in London to forward his views. The erection of an Epis copal Church for Africans, in New York, through the bounty of the British people, would be a standing testi monial of their generosity and Christian feeling. The movement would not stop there, but would lead to the erection of others, and might ere long lead to the mora lization and spiritual salvation of a large portion of the human family. He concluded by a more general applica tion of his text—the doing of good works. They had, he found, great demands upon them to support the noble charities of their own country; but the Apostle enjoined that they should do all good works. The field was stony, but if they sowed upon it, the seed would not, by the blessing of God, be unproductive, be lost, but bring forth fruit. Let. them cast their bread upon the waters, and they would find it after many days. "Do thou thy part, and leave to HIM the rest." The preacher (of whose address this is but an imperfect sketch) evidently made a strong impression upon his auditory, and a general whisper ran through the church, expressive of wonderment at his attainments, and admira tion of his Christian and philanthropic views. He spoke calmly, not vindictively, of the wrongs of his countrymen, and exhibited talents as a scholar and an orator in unob trusive and neat figures of speech, which stamp him as a man of reading and intelligence. His manner is agreeable and energetic. He is assuredly a living proof of the ca pability of the African race to be elevated to a high stan dard of intellectual and religious culture ; and we venture to prognosticate that his mission to this country will—as it deserves—be successful even beyond his early hopes. At the close of the service a handsome collection was made at the doors. The locks from the canal into the North Docks were opened on Thursday. The flat Joseph, Captain Robert Alty, belonging to Mr. Edward Morgan, with a cargo of coals, was the first to pass through. The Albion says that the price demanded for the use of the Theatre Royal for a single night for Jenny Lind was £3OO. Hence her appearance at the Collegiate Insti tution.

The bowling of S. H. Splatt, of the Albion, and J. Blundell, of the Wallasey, and the batting of J. Maddock, of the Wallasey, and W. E. Shaw, of the Albion, were much admired.

Letters from Rome of the 4th of August, represent matters as assuming daily a more unfavourable and cheer less position. The conduct of a large faction of design ing, rather than enthusiastic men, has placed the city in a state of considerable excitement, and has given rise to serious apprehensions. On the Ist of August, the cham ber voted an address to the Pope, praying that instant measures might be taken for the protection of Italian independence, and stating, that it was necessary instantly to enrol volunteers, raise supplies, and invite foreign aid. This address passed the upper house with slight )ppo salon, and was presented by a deputation in the evening. An edict from the Pope, which was torn down by thit people, and not to be seen after eight o'clock in the morn ing, appeared on the 3d. This edict, however, and the subsequent choice of a new ministry, appear to have Pro' duced more tranquility • the guards were dismissed from the Chigi-place, and the agitators broke up their sitting. The new ministry was composed of Corbolli Bussi, Foreign Affairs. Count Fabbri, Interior. Lauro Lauri, Finance. Campello, War. Galletti, Police. Sturbinetti, Public Works. THE WAR IN ITALY. CAPITULATION OF MILAN. Letters from the city of Milan 'state that during th e c night of the sth and the morning of the 6th the King a n d the whole Piedmontese army retired by the road to Tu rni j On Sunday, the 6th, the Austrian army, very strong a n t in the finest order, entered the city, and in a few boars t civil and military occupation was established. The uto n silence prevailed during the passage of the troops throng' the Corso and principal streets. The city has been de: serted by all the nobility, many of the better families, Oa by an immense majority of the people. On the morning of the 7th a proclamation appeared, signed by Field -Mar' shal Radetzky, declaring the city and province of Lo: bardy in a state of siege, stating that all offences gai n " good order would be tried by martial law, and nom the Prince Schwartzenburg military governor of Mila n : The greatest order prevails, both on the part of the Al!': trian troops and the Milanese people.

"8 The Field-Marshal demands the immediate liberation iv all the generals, officers, and Austrian employes at prese nt Milan." According to the letter of the 6th, from Milan, the pulace on the previous day became so enraged on hea rw e l that a capitulation had been made, that they overtur.ia the carriages of the King's suite, constituted him a nom,r2 prisoner in the palace where he resided, and con3Peni him to promise to break off the agreement and give 10 ' 7 . to the Austrians.

The charges were severally for light weights, false scales, accelerating beams, and lead and other substances under the selling scales. In reference to the last named complaint, of which there were many instances, his worship observed that the practice was most dishonest and disgraceful, and expressed his determination to inflict heavy fines in all such cases which came before him. On one of the informations for an accelerating beam being heard, the party accused applied to the Mayor to kno* if he could summon the person from whom he got the scales. The name of Iken was stamped upon them. The Mayor observed, that they were most discreditable beams, and he wished the maker could be punished es well as those who used them.
