(The Five Signatures.) A t elegraphic despatch from Vienna, on Saturday night, pia that Prince Gortschakoff, wh en signin g h , requested that a should be invited to take part at te conferences. Buol supported the request. The French a nd En g lish A Lniaters took notice of it ad referendum. The object of "* , ria in laying the propositions before the Frankfort Diet 1, believed at Vienna to have been with a view of giving 41 saia an opportunity of declaring her intentions. PRUSSIA. blatelligence from Berlin states that Prussia , sooner th an liiii°duce any fresh subject of contention between the allies, relinquish all claims for admission to the co nferences.

Christians are to be formally admitted to hold the civil government—not only those high posts in they have been hitherto employed, but they are to dis til ar ge, evenly with Mahomedans; all public functions. The Christian which has been agreed to and passed is, in short, a ii 7lstian emancipation act. There can be no doubt of the be. f: lt s which this great advance in the east of Europe will con eili , ou the Christian subjects of the Ottoma empire.

RUSSIA. • a Letters f r om St. Petersburg, dated the 31st of January , i' es cribe increasing confidence among the merchants and a ti l rther imp ro vement in the rate of exchange. An erroneous l i lit luncement that an armistice had alread been . concluded, iPears to have given a new impulse to the markets . Accord 'g to the views of intelligent persons, there could be no doubt th at the Austrian intervention to bring about terms was orimi.- 411 3 r concerted at St. Petersburg, and its success is hailed as tiVl of :finnh of skill, by which the exposure of the actual condi i Russia and the degradation of suing for peace have been t f e er ted. Peace, it is said, is no longer a question for consi- Otion, but an absolute necessity for the country ; and this f act is so thoroughly recognised that every one believes it to the firm intention of the Czar to meet the allies in a manner make sure of the war being brought to a close. T he p ride ''ae fanatical party is, however, to be soothed by the idea l 'at the submissio ahouh now inevitable, need not be per- :bent. The famou n, s saying g of Catherine, that Constantinople, f l'e g'ards Russia,is "the key of the house," is not to be banished 41.:111 recollection. A period of repose must be had at any cost, i 1 it is well to have secured it while Cronstadt and Sweaborg 1, 4 still boast of impregnability. But this policy is only " for 0 e Present." No Russian, it is affirmed, gives up his views C„,Turkey, and " they now say they must get the English to e „`" l4 public works and railroads, and also to find the capital to 1 4le it to be taken at a more auspicious time, when France n i 3 ' have troubles at home." Hence for the future the di . ati 04, arts t e tone will be altogether in favour of the as of peace, Pe cultivation of commerce, and a limitation of the empire. ,;ren_naella' will, on a treaty being concluded r tuneut grant cessions and give guarantees of roterest English companies for the construction - of railways all over „"e country. lt is the appropriateness of these designs that alpid to have converted the Grand Duke Constantine to the e °f peace, and this conversion is accepted by every true t trii ß iau as a sign that nothing is really intended to be aban- H lb e`d. He will not give up, they say, the duty that was ira ilc°•,, upon thewhen he was christened, and for the fulfil tu'illt of which studies and habits of his life have consti tuted. a continuous preparation.

WALLA.SEY BoAuioB HBALTIL — The monthly meeting of this board was held on Thursday. The Law-clerk submitted a report of a special committee appointed to inquire how the interests of the parish would be affected by the Liverpool and Birkenhead Dock Bill; and a special parliamentary committee was appointed to petition the House of Commons, and take such other steps as might be deemed necessary in the matter. The subject of the ferries was afterwards discussed, and was also ultimately referred to a committee. HOLYHEAD HARBOUR Wouks.—On Wednesday, amonster blast was exploded at the quarry belonging to these works. A blast which had been formed with the labour of four or six men for the last ten or eleven months, and which required no less a quantity than six tons and a-half of powder to explode it, was let off in the presence of J. M. Rendell, Esq., the chief engineer ; C. Rigby, Esq., the contractor, and a numerous staff of gentlemen connected with the works. The blast went off very satisfactorily, and it is calculated that the quantity of stone loosened by the explosion will be no less than about 60,000 tons !—Carnarvon Herald. A CHILD SCALDED TO DEATH.—An inquest was held on Friday, at the Durham -Ox public-house, Jackson-street, Birkenhead, before Mr. Churton, coroner, on the body of William Lowe, aged seven years, who died on Wednesday. The deceased, who resided with his ,father, a labouring man, in Wrexham-street, was left in an apartment by himself, and, whilst attempting to reach something on the mautlepiece, he came in contact with a kettle of water which was on the fire, the result being that he was severely scalded all over the body by the boiling liquid. The youthful sufferer lingered for a few days, when death ensued. The jury found a verdict of " Accidental death." A aim days ago, Mr. Charles Morgan, Cwmdwyfran, New church, Carmarthenshire, and Mr. James Hughes, of Treber sed, proceeded to Llanboidy, to enjoy the pleasures of a coursing meeting, and after the termination of the day's amusement got into a gig to return homewards. About eight o'clock in the evening Mr. Morgan was found lying on the road, in a state of insensibility, about a mile and a half from Llanboidy, and Mr. Hughes was lying near him, quite dead and cold. They had evidently been thrown out of the gig, which had been overturned, and the horse had detached itself from the vehicle, and was quietly attempting to graze the frostbitten grass at the road-side. .MBLeicuorr DEATlL—Captain Maher, of the Glamor ganshire Light Infantry, who but recently succeeded Captain Gompertz in the command of the recruiting staff at Swansea, met his death on Thursday in a shocking manner. The captain went to a party on Wednesday night, and returned to his lodgings early on Thursday. About six o'clock a smell of burning linen was perceptible in the house. A gentleman named Tomlinson, on entering Captain Maher's room, found it full of smoke, and the bed furniture on fire. When the flames were extinguished, the lifeless body of -Capt. Maher was found on the floor, and close beside him his favourite dog, also dead. It is supposed that while undressing himself on a chair the deceased, fatigued with being up all night, had fallen asleep, and allowed the candle to fall against the bed curtains. Deceased was partially dressed, and had evidently been suffocated by the smoke. ST.JouN'S CUURCHYARD,CnESTER.—In Tuesday's Gazelle, amongst the orders in council, is the following :—As it seemed fit that so much of an order in council of the Bth February, 1855. as directed burials to be discontinued in the churchyard of St. John the Baptist, Chester, from and after the Ist day of May in that year, which period has since been extended to the Ist of January instant, shluld be varied ; it is ordered, instead thereof, that interments be wholly discontinued within the said churchyard, except in that part which is north of the church, and not within three yards of its walls, in which part the following regulations shall be observed, viz., that no new grave be made except in ground which has never previously been buried in; that no new grave be made within half a yard of any other grave, or except for the burial of a parishioner ; that uo grave be re-opened except to bury the husband, wife, or unmarried child of those previously buried in it, nor unless such grave can be opened to the depth of five feet without exposing remains." SHIPWRECKS AND GREAT Loss OP LIFE.—A dreadful shipwreck occurred in the course of Thursday night or Friday morning, during a violent hurricane from the S.S.W.,under St. Govan's Head, to the westward of Carmarthen ay, by which a large American ship, of nearly 2,000 tons burthen, was totally lost, and between thirty and forty persons drowned. The ship proved to be the Great Duke, of New York, Captain Sampson, master, bound for Liverpool from New Orleans, and was laden with a cargo of cotton, &c., valued at £30,000. For some days previous, according to the statement of the sur vivors (only three in number, the chief mate and two seamen,) - they had been unable to make an observation, the weather being so boisterous, when, on Thursday night, it came on a terrific gale from the S.S.W., and, in the course of that night, she was driven on the rocks, at the spot above named,-when she was almost immediately dashed to pieces, Captain Sampson and upwards of thirty of his crew meeting with a watery grave. The coast for miles is strewn with her cargo of cotton, Indian. corn, &c. In another part of the Bristol Channel another ship was lost, with all hands, (except one man.) She was the Catherine Jenkins, from Cuba, bound for Swansea; laden with copper ore. She was driven on shore on Amlwch Point, and when discovered on Friday morning was found a complete wreck. At Stranraer, on the night of the 7th, the bri g antine Eugenia Widdicombe, of and from Liverpool, for Dordt, was driven by the gale into the foundation' of the old pier. In a few minutes both masts fell over, and, the vessel drifting off, was dashed against a reef of rocks at the top of the harbour, and went to pieces. The whole of the crew, ex cepting one man, were drowned. BIRTHS, MARRIAGES, and DEATHS. e BIRTHS. On the 30th October, at Geelong, Australia, Mrs. R. B. Ronald, of a son.

WIRRAL AGRICULTURAL IMPROVEMENT SOdIETT. — The monthly meeting of this society was held on Tuesday, at the Monks' Ferry Hotel, J. T. Danson, Esq., in the chair. The chairman, after a few introductory remarks, moved the follow ing proposition :—" That, as has already been recorded on the minutes of this society, the landowner who grants a lease for a term of years certainly has a right to ascertain previously that the tenant is possessed of capital, and has skill and integrity such as may warrant the trust reposed in him."—Mr. W. B. Burnham, the secretary, seconded the proposition, which, after some discussion, was carried. The chairman next moved the following proposition :—" That a lease of land for agricul tural purposes should be for such a term of years that the lessee may apply to the soil all his capital required to develope its fertility, according to the best system of husbandry, and recover the whole of such capital, with a fair return for inte rest of money and for skill and labour, before the lease ex pires." This proposition was seconded by Mr. Lockhart, and was carried. The chairman next proposed the following reso lution :—" That the condition of the soil ought, with due re ference to other circumstances, to decide the length of the lease, and this society is of opinion that in this district the term of twenty-one years is the one generally and justly appli cable." The resolution was seconded by Mr. B. Case. To this proposition Mr. Mills moved an amendment, to the effect, "That the rotations of culture to be adopted on the farm should regulate the length of time of the lease, and that a term suffi cient for three rotations should constitute the shortest term of lease." On a division, the motion proposed by the chairman was carried. The members then separated. DEATHS. On the Bth Oct., at Melbourne, Australia, aged 42., Mr. Henry Crossley, brother to Mr. E. Crossley, South Castle- GREAT SALE AT THE BIRKENHEAD DOCK WORKS. — Messrs. Brassey and M'Cormick, having fulfilled their great contract at the Birkenhead Docks, by the completion of the embankment iuclosing the south reserve, and the whole of the dock property having been purchased by the corporation of Liverpool, the immense stock of plant and materials with which the work has been carried on has been offered by public auction. The sale occupied the whole of last week, and the auctioneers were Messrs. Thomas Winstanley and Sons. The property comprised about a dozen valuable steam-engines, pile-driving and other machinery, railway plant, (including several hundred tons of rails,) wrought iron, engineering and surveying instruments, &c., divided into 770 lots. The auc tion was chiefly conducted in the Birkenhead Dock-yard, Can ning-street, and adjacent, but occasionally the auctioneer and bidders had to tratel a considerable distance to some of the lots. Among the conditions of sale were a deposit of five per cent. on the purchase, and clearance within fourteen days of the last day of sale. On Monday, the sale em braced property in the yard and smithy ; on Tuesday, the materials in the iron store, fitting shop, and pattern toom were disposed of ; on Wednesday, a large quantity of wood and small tools were disposed of ; on Thursday, railway plant, travelling cranes, and steam engines in the dockyard and south reserve; on Friday, large quanti ties of timber in balks, more machinery, office fittings, and about eight or ten miles of railway (laid) extending round the works and up to the quarry at Flaybrick-hill, near Bidston ; and Saturday's sale consisted of the stock in the masons' yard, near Woodside Ferry, the surveying and engineering instru ments at the dock warehouses, and the railway waggons and machinery at Flaybrick-hill Quarry. The sale has been attended by dealers from all parts of the country, and the lots have generally brought good prices. Thursday's sale alone produced between £6OOO and £7OOO, and the whole pro perty realised about £14,000 or £16,000. The following were some of the most valuable lots : —446, a 40-horse power hori zontal engine, brought £llOO, or about £2B per horse; 447, three boilers, £2lO ; 449, four pair mortar mills, £B5O ; 517, thirty-horse high-pressure beam engine, £945; 518, a set of 14-inch iron pumps, £3lO. All these were knocked down to one party. It is believed that a considerable portion of the property has been bought for the corporation, and will remain on the ground.

The special sub-committee appointed to con sider the proposed amalgamation with Liverpool, presented the following report :—" 1. That the interest now due on the bonds, and to become due, up to the 31st December, 1857, be capitalized, and that no interest be paid in the meantime. 2. That the present bonds be called in, and new bonds bearing date the Ist January, 1858, be issued in sums of £lOO each, bearing interest at the rate of £3 10s. per cent. per annum, payable half-yearly—the principal to be payable on the Ist January, 1865. That, in default of punctual payment of any half-year's interest, the interest for that half-year to be at the _rate of £5 per cent. ; and that when such arrears in any case shall amount to £25 or more, a new bond be issued for the same. 3. That the restriction imposed by the act of 1850, as to the price at which the commissioners are authorised to sell Cleland belonging to the township be removed, so as to en able them to sell or lease upon such terms as may be deemed advantageous. 4.

B.—Our market to-day opened exceedingly dull, and some few purchases of wheat were made a trifle under Tuesday's rates, bin having more buyers, the tone subsequently Improved, and though altogether we are enabled to report only a moderate amount of business, the trade closed with more firmness. Flour moves very slowly, and at rather lower rates. In barley and beans we quote no variation of value, but the transactions are very limited. Prime oats support their previous currency, but secondary samples are easier to buy; and oatmeal has again slightly sriven way, the country demand continuing unimportant. linden corn is also 6d to 9d per quarter cheaper than on Tuesday, mixed American being sold at 35s to 33s 6d; white New Orleans at 35s to 335 6d, and Northern syltite 37s to 383 per 4801b5., the business altogether light.

We must again reduce our q - uotations 4s to Ss per quarter on English wheat, and 6d to 9d per 701 b on foreign ; 2s to 31 per sack on flour; Id to 2d per 4.51 b on oats; 2s per load on oatmeal; is to 2s per quarter on barley; and 2s to 3s per quarter on beans. - - WAKEFIELD, FEn. B.—The wheat trade has been steady to day. Millers would buy at a decline of is to 2s per quarter from the low rates of lust week. to which .factors only conceded in partial instances. The business passing therefore was of a retail character. Barley and all other articles rather cheaper. WISBECH, FEB. 9.—There was a small show of grain of all kinds at this market to-day. Farmers arc more inclined to hold over, and are reluctant sellers of w'aeat at the rates of last week, and but little business has been done. Oats and beans no alteration. PRESTON, Fan. 9.—There was a fair show of English wheat at the market this morning, but, owing to the weather, the con dition was not good, and a clearance wns only effected by sub tnitting in most cases to an abatement of Is per windle from last week's prices. Irish and Scotch, as well as foreign, 2,1 to 3d per bushel cheaper. Flour nearly nominal. Oats a slow sale at Id to 11 per bushel less money. Oatmeal neglected though offered at a further decline of is to Is dd per load. NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, Fan. 9.—At the market this morning we had a much less supply of wheat from the growers, and having several see 4 buyers in attendance, a clearance was readily effected at an advance of Is to 23 per quarter, extra sam ples for seed commanding even a greater improvement. In south country and foreign scarcely anything was done, the views of buyers and sellers differing too widely to lead to business. Flour was reinteed by our millers to 53s during the week, but Norfolk households could be had in quantity at rather under that figure to-day. Rye unaltered. Malting barley still evinces a drooping tendency and is most difficult of disposal. Malt much as before. Beans and peas in limited request, and a trifle easier. With oats we were more sparingly supplied, and upon the whole a rather firmer feeling predominated, 27s nein.; about the value of Scotch weighing about 40Ibs per bushel. Extra higher. CORK, FEB. 9.—We have passed through another week of very great depression in markets. Flour is pressed at a further reduc tion of 2a. ed. per sack, and yet sales are only diminished. In foreign wheat there is still a bad selection , and pric es nominal. Indian corn declined ss. per ton, and has induced a few buyers to operate. DUBLIN, FEB. B.—The panic of Tuesday appears to have sub sided to-day. The market was generally firmer for every descrip tion of grain, and in some cases an advance of 6d per barrel was realised on the best descriptions of red wheat, and 6d to la on Indian corn. Barley and oats fully supported their prices. White Wheat... 35s Od to 39s Ott Oats, new.... lls Od to lis Oil Red do ..... 34s Ott to 381.

LIVERPOOL, FEIS. 11.—We had quite a retail trade in beef to-day, at lower rates, many buyers being induced to try the English country mar kets, where prices rule lower than here at present. There was no alteration in the value of sheep, but the trade was very sluggish. Number of beasts, 2,194 ; sheep, 6,970. SALFORD, Fan. — 6.—The beef trade firm at former prices, and a good clearance made. Best beef, Gd to 7d ; middling, 51d to 6d3 cows, 4d to sid ; best wedders, 6d to 7d ; heavy weights, Gd to 7d ; ewes, 5d to 6d ; calves, 5d to 7d. Beasts, 1,406 ; sheep, 5,801 ; calves, 161. DUMAN, FEB. 7.—Small supply, with prices a shade better, especially mutton. A small market also of pigs, which were of a better finish than usual. Beef, sinking o ff al, 52s to 56s ; top, 604 per cwt. Veal, 7id ; mutton, 5 d to 6 1( 1 ; top, 7d per Ib ; pigs, 46s to 508 per cwt. PROVISIONS. LIVERPOOL, Fan. 9.—There is a moderate retail demand for American beef. Prices for fine sorts are tolerably well supported, such being relatively scarce; but for ordinary descriptions a decline of 3s to 5s per tierce must be quoted. The late arrivals of new pork have proved of pretty good qual►ty, and have found buyers at our quotations. Bacon moves off at full prices, as landed. With increased supplies, lower rates, however, must be expected. There is a healthier feeiing towards cheese, and advanced prices have been made for fine qualities. Fan. 11.—There is no improvement in butter. The market continues rather quiet; the sales, however, during the last week were to a greater extent than for some time past, and generally at pretty steady rates, but in some instances sellers had to give way Is per cwt, in order to meet the views of buyers. The stocks held here are small, and all is likely to go into consumption at about the present prices. Waterford, &c., favourite brands, 105 s to 107 s; Kilkenny, Wexford, and Cloumel, 105 s to 1065; Sligo and Dundalk, 9Ss to 1025 per cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland from the 2nd to the Bth of February, both inclusive, 8,235 firkins, 28 kegs, 292 crocks, 358 boxes, 30 barrels butter; 106 bales bacon ; 6 hogsheads and 8 tierces hams ; 12 tierces and 60 kegs lard. - - ST.

Various remedies, alleged infallible, were tried in vain, and for a long time I was never twenty-four hours without violent pain; indeed, I was unfitted for the performance of my daily duties. I was induced to try y o ur Food. In less than an hour I found relief, and my recovery was very rapid. The duties which previously had become an intolerable burden, became a delightful exercise, and I have since aecomplished more labour with less fatigue than 1 ever expected to be able to perform. I have never had a return of my complaint. I remain, Btc., D. Thomas."

JACOB TOWNSEND'S AMERICAN SARSAPARILLA.—This is one of the most extraordinary and valuable Medicines in the world. Its superiority over other preparations of like character, made in this country, arises from the mode of manufacture, and the advantage of obtaining and working the root in its green and fresh state. The root, when brought to this country, is dry, vapid, and almost tasteless, its virtues and juices having a lt evaporated; while it often becomes mouldy, musty, and partially decayed, so that it is quite unfit for use. ENGLISH TESTIMONY. We give a few of the many communications we have received since we I►ave been in England, from those who have experienced the great benefits of using this celebrated medicine. They must have some weight in conv►ncing the public of its great value. 49, Davies-street, Berkeley-squcre, Sept. 1. 1851. Gentlemen,-1 have much pleasure in testifying to the nume rous thanks I have received from various persons who have taken Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, many of whom will be happy to give you testimonials should you requ►re them.
