Buns or LADING.—The Inland Revenue Board have decided that, in the case of freight accounts written on the back of duly stamped bills of lading, it is unnecessary that such documents should have an additional penny stamp attached to them when paid. WITHDRAWAL OF THE HAMBURG MAIL PACKET. — After the despatch of the direct contract packet appointed to leave London for Hamburgh, on the 2nd instant, the correspondence for Hamburg, Bremen, Hanover, Bruns wick, Mecklenburgh Schwerin, Mecklenburgh Strelitz, Oldenburgh, Denmark, Norway and Sweden (which corre spondence has hitherto been conveyed, as a rule, by the Hamburg packet) has to be forwarded by the route of Belgium and Prussia, unless specially addressed to be sent by any other route. THE Balms Navr.—From a careful calculation of the force of the Royal Navy at the present time we find that there are 217 ships in actual commission. If fully manned according to the established scale of complements, each for the service for which she is employed, the aggre gate complements of these 217 ships would be above 44,000, of which number 30,300 may be called seamen, 7,200 marines, and 6,500 boys. But from the great scarcity of seamen, and the numerous desertions that have taken place, probably the effective force of the navy does not amount to above 41,000 of all classes.—Morning Herald. CUSTOMS PROMOTIONS.—The office of Surveyor-General of the Castoms for the port of London has become vacant by the retirement of Mr. Philip Fennings, and the follow ing promotions have been approved by the Board of Cus toms : viz.: Mr, Joseph Rolls, third Inspector-General of Waterside and Warehousing Departments, to be Surveyor- General, with a salary of £BOO per annum. Mr. H. C. Brown, now Landing-Surveyor, to be third Inspector- General, with a salary of £6OO per annum. Mr. T. E. Carter, now Jerquer, to be Landing-Surveyor of the third class, with a salary of £5OO per annum. The office of Jerquer will be filled by the promotion of one of the senior Searchers and Landing-waiters. TREATMENT OF EMIGRANTS.—The Court of Common Pleas was occupied a considerable portion of last week with the case of Smith v. The Australian Royal Mail Steam Navigation Company. The plaintiff complained that the defendants engaged to supply him with the requisite acemmodation, provisions, &c. of a second-class passenger, for £42 108., paid in consideration thereof, but that they did not provide such accommodation or prOvisions, and that the plaintiff's health was injured in consequence. On Saturday Lord Campbell said it was a peculiar and un fortunate case altogether. He would suggest that a ver dict for £5O be taken in each case pending, except when the parties were married. Then he thought the verdict ought to be £7O. This was agreed to on both sides, and the verdicts in the other cases were taken accordingly. REFRACTORY SEAMEN.—We have received from our correspondent at Belfast an extract from the official log of the barque Ceylon, Mills, of Liverpool, from Brazil, stating that from the Ist to the 15th of January, when between Pernambuco and Maceio, and whilst in the latter harbour six of the crew refused to do any duty on board the ship. They were several times before the British Consul at Maeeio, but the only complaint they had to make was that the provisions were bad. On the Consul offering to have them surveyed if they wished—the expense of which survey they would have to pay, if the complaint was found groundless—they declined the offer. Five of the men at last returned to their duty, and one was, with the Consul's consent, discharged at Maceio. The captain of the Ceylon complains that the only punishment awarded these men for their misconduct, by the magistrates at Belfast, was the forfeiture of one month's pay each.—Shipping and Mercantile Gazette. THE NEW PACKET-SHIP EMERALD ISLE. TICE very handsome ship'Emerald Isle, which has just arrived in the Mersey, is consigned to Messrs. William Tapscott and Co., and is intended to form one of the well known "Tapscott line of packets," running between Li verpool and New York. She is a large and beautiful vessel, displaying fine symmetry in her lines and general conformation ; she sits gracefully in the water, while her general sweep and happy adaptation of rig give un mistakeable promise that she will prove an extraordinary sailer. The Emerald Isle was built in Bath, Maine, by Messrs. Trufant, Drummond and Co., the celebrated ship builders, who had previously constructed three other ships, including the " William Tapscott," for the line of packet-ships known as the Tapscott liners, and all of which have given the most entire satisfaction to the owners. In this last production of their building yard, Messrs. Trufant, Drummond and Co. have left nothing undone which ingenuity could suggest or ex perience recommend for ensuring the safety and comfort of passsengers, the security of the cargo, and the facility of navigating the vessel. She is registered as about 2,000 tons, and is commanded by Captain G. B. Cornish, a commander of great experience, and well known in the American trade. In form the Emerald Isle is stately as well as graceful ; her bow is sharp without leanness ; the curve of her sides is easy, and she is finished with an eliptical stern. Her masts and rigging are tall and well set up ; her yards are of great length, and so arranged as to carry an immense spread of canvass. In short, we understand she has been hnilt fn onmnpta with any shin in the New York trade. Some idea of her sailing capabilities, however, may be gathered from her-behaviour on what may be called her trial trip, or run out, during which she made two hundred and ninety-five miles in twenty-four hours, while deeply timber-laden, and crank. . • While every attention has been bestowed on her sailing lualities and stowage, equal care and a total disregard of durability with amplitude of accommodation, and perfect ventilation in every part of the ship. She is two hundred and thirty feet long on deck, is forty-two feet six inches in extreme width, twenty-nine feet six inches deep, and has three flush decks, on the upper one of which is the prin cipal saloon, the captain's cabin, the officers' cabin and mess-room in the after part • while forward are the cook ing galleys, hospital, &c. Her framing timbers are of the best Virginia white oak, with live oak ends and locust tree stancheons. She is planked with white oak up to the waist, her waist is of hard pine plank, and the planking above is of white pine. The two lower decks are of red or hard and the-upper of white pine. The whole of her fastenings are of unusual strength, and her timbers are heavy and of large size. There is a free communication right fore-and-aft on all the decks, the ventilation of all of them being ensured by four ventilating shafts, two on the fore and two on the after part of the ship ; besides which there is a lateral ventilator at every third stancheon, and each hatchway and every deck-house through out the ship is fitted with a ventilating cham ber all round, and there is a separate means of com munication with each deck. By a happy arrange ment of the after deck, the wheel and compasses are com pletely covered over, and the steersman will be enabled to pursue his important avocations undisturbed by the vicis situdes of weather; notwithstanding his being thus protected, he is amply supplied with light, and is within reach of immediate communication with the captain's cabin. She carries two life-boats and four other boats, all of the most approved construction, and of large size. In point of passenger accommodation, the Emerald is equal to my other ship in the merican trade. She is fitted up with every accommodation and convenience for the conveyance of second cabin and steerage passen gers. The main cabin is sufficiently large to admit of every elegant and comfortable luxury. It is fitted up in a style of beauty bordering on the fastidious anl quaint, the whole of its sides being of richly inlaid and polished wood ; the door and other panels are of American black ash, a species of wood not much known in this country, but which, from its richly corrugated grain and warm cinnamon-tinted colour, seems happily adapted for the manufacture of ornamental furniture, or decorative panelling, such as it is here used for. The styles, mounters and rails of the cabin wainscoating are of highly polished Spanish mahogany. The floor is covered with rich warm tinted Brussels carpet ; the conches, settees, and easy chairs being handsomely carved, and covered with dark green velvet. The ceiling is white, presenting a light and airy, as well as a sweetly-polished surface. The state-rooms are tastefully furnished with every conve nience which even the most fastidious could require. The captain's cabin is immediately behind the saloon, being between it and the steersman's station. The fitting of the captain's cabin is in fine taste, the pre vailing colour being white, picked out with gold. The second cabin accommodation is spacious, and its arrange ments embrace every comfort and convenience, being neatly fitted uu in rooms to hold two or more Dersons The Emerald Isle is now in the Huskisson Dock, whence she will speedily be removed to have her copper sheathing put on, after which she will proceed to take in cargo. Her external ornaments, although rich and characteristic, are not gaudy nor very conspicuoils. Her figure-head is an Irish wolf-dog, in gold ; the centre stern-ornament is a golden harp, supported on one side by the Irish wolf-dog, and on the other by the American eagle; and the eliptical panel on which her name is carved, is surrounded by a wreath of shamrocks in relief, and gilded. We understand that a considerable portion of the cargo of this fine vessel has already been engaged, and she is expected to have immediate despatch. 853. OCEAN STEAMERS. Tnz discussion upon Ocean Steamers by the Institution of Civil Engineers, the commencement of which we noticed last week, was resumed on Tuesday. After several obser vations on the size of vessels, it was statedthat " It must be evident, that for each length of voyage and description of trade, there was a particular size of vessel, that would be most suitable , and, indeed, as in most other engineer ing works, the circumstances of the traffic, would of them selves mainly determine the prof ions of the structure ; land and Ame- ween En Wally opened by the Oreat Western ;' that is first designed, although much the largest ship of her day, was of the smallest size by which such a luring her construction, to a point t: len general Since that period, successiv Australian v increasing tl American V Indian vovag that a vessel similar t to be lengthened to This argument sho% compel and it was found that the q be received by the . _ ship just 1 to be eni Thus the vessels on that station had been in dimensions, as the trade in- -en those vessels were too small for the 25,000 miles, and the necessity of vas shown, by calculating how much in order to do the Australian, or the ly well. Such calculation demonstrated the ' Great Western,' would require i2O feet to accomplish that voyage. al, that the conditions of the case vessels of extraordinary length, iary distance. . Australian trade had calulated, heir own business, what amount would require accommodation, eater than could dmilated. - The dimensions, ged, to meet the demand of traffic itself did actually fix he dimensions of the proposed large class of vessels. "As to the mechanical strength of such vessels, ther THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, AND GENERAL COMMERCIAL: ADVERTISER. was no difference off opinion on that point among En gineers, provided the structure was of iron. Ships of wood, on the contrary, were limited in size, by the nature of the material, which was grown, and not manufactured, and therefore the produce was- of limited size; whereas plates of iron could, on the other hand,. be rolled of any required dimensions. It must be observed, also, that the strength of wood across the fibre was so small, that two planks could not be so united as to be equally strong in all-direc tions, whilst two plates of iron, rivetted together, were of nearly uniform strength. "Further as to the resistance. of large vessels to waves ; it was evident, that the waves of the Atlantic, being of the same size, whether the vessel. was small or large, their proportionalmagnitude would.be. decreased, as the size of the vessel was increased, so that the. large ship, in a gale, would merely encounter waves of the same proportional size as a ship of half the dimensions, in. half a gale ; and it should be remarked, that the largest ships which had been pro posed, were only double the lineal dimensions of existing vessels. "It appeared, that if the diniensions of vessels had been increased, it was evident that there had not been any in crease of danger, nor was any to be anticipated. The he-. sitation iu receiving new propositions of startling projects was very natural, and, therefore, their discussion was valu able and really useful in eliciting opinions which might otherwise probably not have been given. The feasibility of the Britannia Bridge had been quite as much doubted as that of very large iron ships, and yet it had been exe cuted, and the result was before the world. It appeared fvident that in future engineers must look even further orward than they had done, and in their maritime con structions must adopt dimensions for their docks and har bours to accommodate the increased sizes of the vessels they were destined to receive, but which some years since would have been deemed visionary." or any subsequent Tuesday ) ; at Mr. Lee's, Manchester. — J.

" We, the undersigned inhabitants of Liverpool, most respectfully state that, setting a high value upon any measure that will simplify accounts, render mistakes less frequent, abridge the time necessary for education, and save labour to both master and scholar, learned with great satisfaction that a committee of your honourable house was appointed last session to take evidence as to the advantages that would arise from having a decimal system of coinage, and that the committee so appointed, after examining many intelligent witnesses, unanimously and most urgently recommended its immediate adoption. And your memo rialists, considering it would confer a great boon not only on the country, but upon all classes, universally and with out exception, most respectfully urgeits being carried into effect, as to the wisdom of government may seem best, with the least possible delay. And your memorialists will ever pray THE OLD OAK CEEST.—An American paper says, "An affecting death occurred in this city on the 10th inst. A Spanish mother missed her child only a year old. She supposed that it lost itself in the street, and advertised fe it, but could learn nothing. On the 13th she had occasion to open her camphor-wood trunk, and there lay her child, dead.

GRAND MATCH BETWEEN CAPTAIN ASTLEY, OF TII SCOTS FUSILIER GUARDS, AND LIEUTENANT SAYERS, OF THE 23RD WELCH FUSILIERS.—This match arose out of a challenge given by Lieutenant Sayers, at the time the regi ments were encamped on Chobham Common, to run any officer in the British army 150 yards for £l5O. Capt. Astley accepted the challenge upon condition that two races should be run—one a flat race, and the other a hurdle race, which was ultimately agreed to. The flat race came off at Salt Hill, on Tuesday last, and was cleverly won by Lieutenant Sayers, who beat his opponent by three feet. The hurdle race, which came off yesterday afternoon in the Home Park, excited un usual interest, from the well-known reputation of the gallant captain as a hurdle jumper, and, by three o'clock, the time appointed for the start, some hundreds of persons had congre gated, including the officers of the Scots Fusilier Guards and Ist Life Guards, as well as many of the sporting gentry of the neighbourhood. When the distance, 150 yards, had been carefully marked out by the umpires, and seven hurdles pitched at equal distances across the ground, the combatants, after dressing at old Snooks', the keeper's, house, made their appearance--one in pink and the other in blue silk drawers— and both men exhibited a fine frame and plenty of muscle. Captain Astley for choice. The start was admirable, and both leapt the four first hurdles together, when Lieutenant Sayers slipped up, and before lie could recover his footing, the captain had cleared the fifth hurdle, and, consequently, won easily. notwithstanding Lieutenant Sayers made a desperate effort to regain his lost ground.

Sheep were in fair demand, and sold readily at the extreme- currencies of this day week. Good Beef worth stid to 6d per lb.; Mutton, 6fd to 7d per lb. SALFORD,.

I.—There was a considepable show of stock.

Good sold early, but all middling and inferior qualities were difficult to dispose of, and numbers left over. The Pig market was firm, prices 46s per cwt. FI?QJtiSI©N MARKETS LIVERPOOL, DEC. 2.—The market for beef remains in the same unsatisfactory state, the dealers only buying for their immediate wants, having no confidence in the high rates asked in America: for new beef being maintained. Pork is in retail demand only, and must be quoted Is to 2s lower. There is rather more inquiry for Bacon, but holders being very anxious to clear out, meet buyers readily, hence there is no alteration in price. Lard is very quiet, with a downward ten dency, the market being affected by offers to sell for spring delivery at greatly under present rates. The demand for fine cheese is steady, but middling sorts move slowly. DEC. s.—Our Butter market was dull all last week, and only a limited retail business transacted; but the high rates paying in .r - eland, and the sanguine expectations of the shippers there, cause holders here in general to evince great firmness,, and no change can be made in the quotations. The most esteemed brands of Waterford, Carrick, and Clonmel, 98s to 100 a; Kilkenny, Carlow, and Wexford, 96s to 98s; Belfast, Dos to 975; Limerick, 93s to 965; Sligo, 92s to 965; and pickled Cork, 2nds, 90s per cwt., landed.

On:Tuesday, the tenor of the India advices, as they appeared in the newspapers, seemed to induce a greater inclination to operate on the part of the India houses, and yarns were in slightly better demand, at rather higher rates; but it did not amount to anything like an animated inquiry. Since the delivery of the letters, the improvement has continued. A somewhat increased inquiry was also experienced for Yarns for home use. Since Tuesday, this partial improvement has not been fully maintained, and as the week closed there was a more decided return to a feeling of depression, occasioned, very probably, by the increasing stringency of money, which naturally leads to considerable circumspection being exer cised by commercial men, and the more especially as there appears no immediate prospect of a permanent relief. Whilst some descriptions of Yarns have had any downwlrd tendency for the moment arrested, the Cloth market has remained un interruptedly dull, and the instances have been but few in which slightly better terms might not be secured by buyers, Printing cloths for the home trade, have been in better de mand, induced in part by the reduction in the quantity pro duced, consequent on the working of short time. With this exception, there is no favourable change. ROCHDALE.—The business transacted has been upon a limited scale. In the wool market firm prices are obtained, but the demand is limited. LEEDS.—There was quite as much business done at the Cloth Halls on the two last market days as is usual so late in the season, and a fair average quantity of goods have changed hands out of the halls. Prices are without any material alteration, and the manufacturers' stocks as low as usual at this season, the mills, in consequence, are pretty well em ployed. Although business has been rather dull in the ware houses, it has been quite as good as usual so near the close of the year. BRADFORD.—WooIs: The holders in the country evince no disposition to give way to meet the prices recently current here, and the staplers are seeking prices which cannot be met by the spinners. Bright-haired Wools more inquired after, and rather higher prices obtained. In other descriptions of Wool not much doing, spinners only buying for present use. Nods and brokes more inquired for; prices without alters. tion, and stocks low.—Yarost Ilse prices sought for.wool prevent any more machinery being put to work, and short time working is very general. In some instances better prices have been obtained for Yarns adapted for the Lanca shire market : upon the whole there is a befter feeling. Pieces: There is very little doing for the continent, and stocks of some descriptions of goods are accumulating, though manufacturers, to prevent this, resort to stopping of looms a few days at a time, in addition to working short time. Coburgs and crapes more inquired after, but at very low prices. HUDDERBFIELD.—A better feeling and more confidence seems to have prevailed in this market, and a slight improve ment in the demand for manufactured goods has been expe rienced in consequence. Fancy Trouserings, of low and middle qualities, and heavy broads have been among the principal articles disposed of. Plush Waistcoatings, of good qualities, meet with ready sale. There has been a fair trade done in the wool warehouses. NOTTINGHAM.— The two staple trades of this town are in a depressed state, but the Lace Is more so than the Hosiery business. A genial early spring, and money a little easier both in Europe and America, would have a tendency to bring this town up to its wonted state of prosperity sooner than anything else, except a good harvest, which, after all, is the greatest blessing we can receive for the prosperity of commerce. LEICESTER.-With few exceptions trade continues very slack, manufacturers proceeding with great caution. CORN MARKRTS LIVERPOOL, DEC. 2.—There was a fair attendance of local and country millers at this day's market, and though we had less general pressure of Wheat samples, even ex ship,' a decline of Id to 2d per 70Ibs. from the rates of Tuesday was' conceded : a few forced sales were made at a somewhat greater depression, but upon the whole the trade closed with more firmness, and the aggregate transactions were to a tolerably good amount. Flour may be currently quoted Is to is 6d per barrel cheaper; some parcels of Baltimore and Philadelphia were cleared from the quay at 355, and buyers would have gone further at the same price; subsequently 35s 6d was paid in warehouse, but the business altogether has not been large. Both malting and grinding Barley was very unsaleable, and the value almost nominal. Beans moved ofi' in retail at barely so much money as before.
