Greame and Co. say :—" Our last series of public sales for the present season com menced on the 19th inst., and are progressing favourably in most cases ; although, on the whole, scarcely as satisfactory as was generally anticipated. The first day's sale consisted of 820 bales Australian, &c., and 1,350 sheets English Skin and Fleece Wool, which attracted a large attendance of the trade. The Austialian sold very briskly at an average advance of about Id. per lb. on last London rates ; for the English descriptions there was also a fair competition, and the greater portion sold at prices about averaging previous current rates. Of East India, 4,415 hales have passed the hammer, and, so far, with few exceptions, prices have ranged about equal to our last auctions. The miscellaneous parcels of low Wools did not command much attention, and a large proportion was withdrawn, such as Oporto, Iceland, low Chili, &c. These sales will continue until the 27th instant.

Prime breeds generalljr in THE DAYS NEWS. ). There -is no end of rumours, it will be seen; from the Continent, with respect to the questions still involved in the Italian difficulty—questions which are now not confined to Central Italy, but extend to the States of the Church, and to Naples ; and thereby are likely to afford fresh opportuni-- ties for armed intervention on the part of Austria,. and, not improbably, on the part of France also. There would seem to be no doubt that it is .t 1 e anxious desire of thy French Emperor that Eng land should enter the approaching Congress,. and explicitly state her views on Italian affairs ;. but our Foreign Secretary, it appears, makes it a condition of England's participation in any such Congress, that broad principles of liberty and in dependence should first be laid down, and adhered to,—principles without a recognition of which en the part of Austria and France, England can have nothing whatever toll° with their disputes. It appears that every Continental Power has, within the last few days, afforded unmistakeable indications of the unsettled and uneasy state of Europe. It is said that Louis, Napoleon, whose, policy is so inscrutable; is occasioning new com plications of those questions, the settlement of which, it had been hoped, would: be amicably adjusted. Another war is now openly spoken of', most likely—we suppose, between Austria and France. It is. beginning to be iispected, we observe, that should France, as well as Spain, make an attack on Morocco, one of its °Wets would be to add that state to its territory of Algeria,—" a step which," the Times observes, " would justify the strongest remonstrances on the part of Europe." There has been a Conservative demonstration in Essex, at which one of the speakers (Mr. Beresford, M.P.), a Conservative of the retro gressive school, had not much to say in favour -of that liberal and enlightened Conservatism which public opinion has stamped with its approval. And yet he was constrained to admit that, with reference to the late Conservative Government, more particularly, when Conservatives are in _ power they were all for progress and, in this respect, there might not, in general; he thought, be a very great difference between a Conservative ' and a Liberal Government. Yet there was this distinction,—that while the Liberals talked liberally, the Conservatives acted as well as talked. And this very distinction, it is, which has gained the Conservative party the confidence of the country; and made their return to power now so much desired among the great b o d y o f th e people. • By the arrival of the British and North Ameracan Royal MairVteatn-ship Asia i f yesterday afternoon, we are put in possession. of Intelligence froth New York:to the 121 h-inst. The infailigence so conveyed is not of ally general interest, Dy the .papers to 'hand we have details of soveral sanguinary conflicts between , individuals, arising,. it is said, out of political and electioneering dis- Eutes.. one of these, it_ wilt be, seen, has ter minated fatally for one of the . combatants. Ire. c , ..thinervial circles in the United States a con siderable amount. of anxiety has eert . ..created by the stoppa?e of Messrs. Sewell, Ferris, and Co.'s bank,: at New York, occasioned, itis• averred, by having afforded too liberal assistance to the Western Bank.. The numerous. ward meetings of candidates With the - eleetorS r which are now ditiff and' nightly oecurrencs',- indicate clearly thattlie day of the municipal elections is rapidly approaching. Pi'obehly on no former occasion were thertr such. intraer - OLLS contests, 'and possibly in no iwevieus instance were there such well-balanced chances of sueee:s. Each party must exert itself to the utmost, a 3 with6ut doubt; Will be done, in oriel "to carry the respective candidates cf the pol:tia.l sections into whiah_ the town is divided,- In Ev,:rte.n and Kirkdale Ward,. Mr. C. F. Carne: made his first appearance, in , the character of suitor for - municipal bonour,s-, last night.. His receptian'-w - as most gratifYing;. and the meeting, which was highly influential, was also a very harmonious and enthusiastic one. The annual meeting of the Liverpool branch of the Society ,. for Promoting Cheistianity among the Jews to9Vplace fast night, in , the Lecture-hall of the Collegiate Institution. The .Lord Bishop of Chester occupied the chair, and addre sse d th e meeting, which, was numerous, and‘ which was also addressed by . the Rev. J. B. 1 - _,cwe, the Rev. Dr. ITNeile, the . Rev. C. J. Goodhar , tl,. and other distinguished deromen. The triennial yisi4ation of the Bishop of the Diocese, to the clergy resident in the Liverpool district, commenced-yesterday. After an impres sive and appropriate sermon had been: preached. by the Rev. Dr. ril‘Neile, the Lord BiShop deli vered a most interesting charge to the. clergy. The sermon was preached and the charge - deli vefed in St. Luke's Church, instead of Sti-Peter's, the latter being at present under a course:of re pttirs,. The church, , , , ,•.s crowded by an attentive and obviously much interested congregation, which:included many of the local clergy.. ' Tills week .our good old town is to be signalised by one of those events which have a far-reaching but sure result on the fortunes of parties,, and take their place in the political annals of the country.. Our local Conservative leaders. had perhaps little notion,- when they projected the forthcoming banquet, that the derrionstration would assume a- national_ importance. But the apprehensions of our political adversaries, not lalis than the sympathising hoßes of our co-adjutors and allies, prove with what instinctive consistency a personal coMpliment to the chiefs of " Her " Majesty's Opposition," assumes the character of a direct political manifesto. For nearly, fifteen. years Conservatism may be' said to have almost dwelt. in. a philosophy, and to , have been.working beneath. the surface, inform ing the best mind of the country with the sure, leaven of political.moderation_and wisdom. When; to the goSsipers and busy-bodies of faction, the, Manceuverers and. hangers-on., skilful in party. tactics and: eager in party, expectations, and,.. to the whole. fluttering crowd of superficial. observers,. Conservatism has. seemed most silent or most. depressed, there have been wrought. solid changes, .deep transformations, there, where; changes are least ephemeral,.and transformations,:-. 'are - most real. We assertk unhesitatingly, that. the present PONamentary aspect, of Radicalism. is an accident or an iMposture, and is not to be. taken. as a truthful exponent of national feeling. As the unconstitutional designs of extreme Lib: - eralS,. and the dishonest weakness of moderate Liberals, become apparent, the country which has always at bottom. loved the Constitution: learns. not cnly to hate the unpatriotic eceeii, tricities of the former„but. to doubt the sincerity and trustworthiness of the latter. The truth ia, that the present ministerial majority—if it be a majority-4s the result,_ not of the growth of ,any principle, or even, the national success of any party, but of a mere derangement in existing political organizations.. When in 1846,, Sir ROBEILT PEEL destroyed the party he. had formed, he did not inaugurate a new political policy, or change the relations of Conservatism to the Constitution.. The result of his defection. was to split the Conservative party into two sections; one of which as: it happened, was distinguished 'by its adhesion. to, a. measure of social. economy . with whiCh the Liberal party was also identified. The question itself which occasioned * _ and for a time sustained this,diversity of foilowing,.has long since subsided into, the almost forgotten. annals of party ; but instead of a reunion following, between the two members of an unnatural separation, personal Considsrations have caused : the- apparent absorption of the Peelite figment into the party of Liberalism-proper. This history is very notorious ;: but the reason we refer to it is to add point to the question:: Whether so thoroughly artificial an accident can,, in the nature of Things, long continue to affect the parlia menttury standing of a great political principle ? If Lord DERBY had not by kis side one man 4:4 transcendent talents, .who, has become even tra ditionally the leader o.t the House, in a Cower- Native Ministry, it is row than probable that the . present CHANCELLOA of the EXCHEQUER would have long ago drifted into different party rela tions, and escaped the odium of much painful inconsistency. There is no doubt, before it had recovered from the blow inflicted by internal dis ' sension, Conservatism had suffered much disad.van_ tage from the conflict of mere personal claims, and • the jealous paw tilios of half-returning friends. But now the strength that has been gradually increasing, having had time to consolidate itself, and put on a more compacted front, is able to dispense with half-hearted support, and is chal lentrino.6 the allegiance of the more honest among the disaffected. The philosophic Conservatism which Lord JOHN RUSSELL expatiates on in the country, cannot conciliate the prejudices or calm the fears of the prudent, in proSpeet of a Reform Bill. Because, even if they are sincere, we know well that sere gentiment and mere conviction wilt be sacrifiodl to party necessitim and that in any; case, Consvrvatives alone are - Cie canonical apos-- tles of Conservatism. The country glances unea sily from Loi'd JOIIN the philos€,plier, to Lord JOHN the partiSani. By the harmless-amusement at Aberdeen, she sets the factious iminceuveriug of last June, and: the anticipated bid for the lowest popularity next February. She looks from Philip sober to , Philip drunk, and, hbwever she may admire the pleasant but useless exerci tatiot,kr. of the, one, she i's•unwilling to commit the intereet of the Constintion to the frantic bclp lessues6 of the other. Now ir is getting tiarx - for Conservatism tv come out of its philosophy "at j netrrcr.: and, with a display of moral , trength, encourage the hearts of . so many that Have waited for its full revival.. Meh have been thrown off their balance. Thay - have lost their wiaerTabouts. They have been , surrounded with' a' chaob. In the confusion they heard little lint' the preump t-bous and egotistical cries of politisal fanatie.s,. who 'toasted that in the universal melee they had come uppermost, and_ were masters of the situation. 1.1 - at,. when men are awaking, and looking about them a little mores composedly and hopefully r it is the iuty of Consesvatism to clear awarthe and let in the light of day; that she-may point out with certainty the path of the Constitution,,-- who are its real assailants, and who , its- real defen&rs. THE addresses of the - candidates of that7politimE party which is making; such herculeameffortste , obtain the ascendancy in the Town COUncil. Liverpool are most intolerably long-winded, full of high-sannding pretensions and most - inflated_ promise 3, as well as being. interlarded with•vita-- peration and.

Profuse and. prodigal expenditure ' " belongs to the Tories.. We are the best &tan " ciers,—the most disinterested, the purest of . " men. " . This . self-laudation is, to say the least of it, not.: very modest. Modesty, liow ever, is by no means a• distinguishing feature in the idiosyncrasy of a Liberal. But it may 1- >e fairly asked, what, is a • Liberal ?—what does the term mean? Never Was, there one more vague, more unmeaning.. It . is., a• definition whicalmay imply anything, Or: nothing. If conveys. in politics, what the, termlrect-thinking does in reil-. gion; It includez...every divergence from a fixed point. Apply it to the members of the present Liberal Administration,;: commence with., the. Protean Premieni.,--ho- is, a Liberal; the., Whig , Foreign Secretary,:is a.Liberal ; the metaphysical Chancellor of the-Exchequer is aLiberal ;,-,so. is the President of the Board.of - Tracie, a Liberal,-,-Vu., LIERS, BRIGHT, CCIBDEN, ERNEST JONI'S.. OAKE, are all self-styledi Liberals,—Jews,. Turks, and infidels, place themselves in the same category . .. To constitute a Liberal„therefore, requires no fine f or definite principle:4i. no determiTbate policy, , no party adherence.. •it has a wide-ranging - tudinarian sip - lib:retina; and its only gene - 131; and intelligible meaning- is, that ittis a dissent. from Conservatism.. The person who is not a. Conservative—whatever else he may be—how.r ever ardent lnkewarm—whether below, or.- above proof in.,politics—he is a Liberal. There-7- fore, we advise: the- electors, at,the forthceraing : election, to insist upon every Liberal, so called, to explain himself, as to the meaning he attaches. to the term,. as, representing seine distinctive.. and comprehensible-class of opinions in civil an& re ligious Matters,;: otherwise they may find, them selves very-much disa.ppoirttwi in the candidate they return, upon simply a negative description of hire-self—namely, that he is not a Qortoericar tive. Now,. we have this advantage, trio we, do know what Conservatisn means : it is a, Blear anctintell*ible, and, wltat is more iMportaut, reliable description of sound, stable, and honour able priociples ; not borne about 112;-ever.y shifting wind,. and turning . about like a: weathercock, sport every various *modification, of popular agi batiou and opinion,. It implies, toyalty, regard to the laws, the Liglikest respeot for established rights, the maintenance of national honour and dignity abroakiu the differentlEuropean Cabinets; social progress,, and improvement at home; a frugal, but not grudging, wnny-wise and pound foolish expenditure of the public monies ; the advancement and protection of commerce and native industry ; a due and equitable consider-. atiou of the individual interests of all classes, without giving undue prominence to any MO in particular ; exercising a vigilant and careful over sight with regard to the efficiency of our national defences, the security of our own coasts, and the prosperity of our distant colonies, There is no occasion for a Conservative to recommend himself negatively to his constituents. He stands well enough before them on his own character,—it is e u v n e n r e dy c o e vw s o s nt a e r hr v i sp f for s neighbour'sl iim to ebefo r e e s t ih a n b et lei confersrs e h st h . i s L o e et w i n vtihc b e y pull ing rreofwoievr in upon negative () 2 (1 e u a l ot i fo fi c am a s t ar i li o i ir n e S. at om ir!o l ugn i i s h laudable cipal sptei aenvedryfeimi:wii,_cifitizensi NORTitERNLf TBIEs. steady request at very full prim otherwise trade ruled inactive at late rates. • Beef 2s 10d to 4s 10:1 I Veal 4s 41 to 5s 41 Mutton 3s 4d to 5s 4d Pork , .....3s SA to 4s Od Lamb Os ad to Os Od ! 4,) Sibs.
