THE TREATY OF ZURICH. L Nord of Saturday publishes another version of the Zurich Treaty, as coming from a " respee table source, and expresses an opinion,that this is the true one. It will be oven that this - new re •11»ze is much:less detailed than the other. The following is the text of it, as given in Le Nord : The treaty regulates the condition of the cession of lAmbardy"to the Emperor of the French, who'reserves to himself the power to transfer both the rights and obligations to the King of Sardinia. , , • France engages that Austria shall be paid a sum of about. 100 millions, of which a quarter is to be paid down at the time of the exchange of ratifications of the treaty. Moreover, a part Of the - ),Monte-Lombardo- Venetian debt will be saddled upon the'new possessor of that province, A special commission will fix the precise limits of the frontier ;. the boundary line opposite l'eschiera must be ,3,500 metres acrnss. • There are other minor arrangements concerning Lombardy ; jurisdictions, rights of citizenship and naturalisation, .religious congregations, abrogation of certain contracts, payment olipensions, &c. The treaty "contains articles concerning all the points toadied upon by the preliminaries at Villafranca. The rights of -the -Dukes are reserved, .and not only those of the Dukes of Tuscany and MOdenai but those also of the Duke of PaOna, of .whom no mention was made at Villafranca. The Pontifical Government will be advised to grant reforms in order to assure tranquillity in the States of the Church and to consolidate his power. There will be an Italian Confederation, and in order to assure the inviolability and independene,e.of the Italian States, their moral and material progress, and their internal and external security, there will be a federal army. The two Emperors will favour the for mation of this Confederation. Venetia will form a part of it on an equal footing with the rest of Italy. The Pope to be honorary president. There is also an amnesty, but rather a restricted one, since it only extends to those who took part in the last movements in the Peninsula. LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

ANNE'S WARD.—Last evening a meeting of the friends and supporters of Mr. Clarke Aspinall, candi date for the representation of this ward, was held at the house of Mr. Hallowes, Christian-street, Mr. Roger Fraser in the chair. Mr. Fraser, in opening the pro ceedings, said he Was sorry that Mr. Aspirrat had been called out of town on Saturday, and had not yet returned, but he hoped that by ten o'clock they would see him in that room. After a neat speech, he introduced Mr. Henry Midhurst, who, in a number of elegant extracts and high-flown sentences from mother tongue, pro posed the following resolution :—" That this meeting believes • Clarke Aspinall, Esq., to be a fit and pro . per person to represent St. Anne's Ward in the Town Council of Liverpool, and pledges itself to use every legitimate means to secure his election." Mr. Jabez Jones seconded . the resolution, and a number of gentlemen then addressed the meeting against time,. until the arrival of Mr. Clarke Aspinall, including Mr. J. B. Aspinall, Mr. Kitchen, and others. Shortly after ten o'clock Mr. Clarke Aspinall entered the room, and was received with enthusiasm. He briefly explained the cause of his absence, and proceeded to lay before his audience his peculiar political and social views. He said he should . advocate the utmost and rigid economy in the management of the corporate property; he was an advocate for the rating of the docks for the benefit of the poor in Liverpool, and he would be a firm sup porter of large and comprehensive public improvements; the meeting broke up about half-past tea o'clock.

CRIME BIRK ENHEAI).-It is a melancholy fact that notwithstanding the zeal with which the autho rities of this town labour frr the suppression•of Tice, there still exists, as is generally .the case in rising towns, a large amount .of crime. As an instance of this we may mention that of a number of ‘.‘ unfortunates" brought before the Police-court yesterday,. for being drink and disorderly, the number of times of their appearance. ranged from 115 to 50. . . MUNICIPAL ELECTION. EVERTON AND KIRKDALE WARD, A public meeting of the friends and supporters Of Mn. Clime was held yesterday, iu St. Mary's' Schools, Itirk dale, Mr. Edward Whitley in the • chair ; and among those present were—Messrs. D. Crosthwaite, J. C. Dreaper, J. Lengton, Barkelh S. Holden, J.. R. Chambers, G. Horriby, W. Pitts, It. Sim*, Dr. Chal mers, &c., &c. The CHAIRMAN, in his opening remarks, expressed a hope that no personalities would be indulged in, with respect to any person. Mr. Stitt was a gentleman for whom he had great respect, and he hoped nothing disrespectful would be said of him. He considered, however, that Mr. Stitt was not the representative of the opinions of the vast'majority of that ward. He believed the majority of the electors were determined to show Mr. Stilt that he did not represent their opinions in the Town Council, and this determination would. be carried out by returning- a gentleman who would prove himself more fitted in every way to represent those opinions. Sine. Mr. Stitt had been elected, he had invariably sup ported that extreme party, who might possess great oratorical powers, but who did not command the esteem and respect of their fellow-townsmen. The time had arrived when the people of Liverpool could despise such liberality as only found vent in talking. It would be remembered that but a short time ago, when their re spected friend, Mr. Anderson, brought before the Council the efficient state of the Corporation Schools, that Mr. Robertson • Gladstone made a most unwarrantable and unfounded attack on those schools, stating that, be cause the Bible was read there, and religious instruc tion was given there, a considerable portion of the population of Liverpool was excluded. In that attack Mr. Stitt supported him. On this ground, if he had no other, he would call upon the electors of Everton and Kirkdale Ward to oppose the re-election of Mr. Stitt, and in place elect a gentlemen who would support the religion of the Church ; and that gentleman was Mr. Came. (Cheers.) He was aware that there was every probability of success with such a gentlemen to oppose Mr. Stitt. They had another candidate who commanded their respect, in the person of Mr. Ilubbock. He (the chairman) had been a long time connected with municipal and parliamentary elections, but he never knew anything received more enthusiastically than that Mr. Hubbock should become a candidate for the ward. He had waited upon Mr. Hubbock with a requisition signed by nearly 500 electors; and, singular to state, these names had all been obtained in about sixty bouts. This proired that. Mr. Stitt had not their confidence, and that he did not represent their opinions. This being so, it had been thought advisable to ask another gen tlemen, who would represent 'them in the place of Mr. Hubbock, who could not • stand ; and that person he thought they had found in his friend, Mr. Came. (Cheers.) For eighteen years lie had resided in that ward, and was, - therefore, well acquainted with their wants. He was a man of considerable ability, and had a great deal of leisure at his command, and lie was willing to devote these to the welfare of his townsmen. He was also a good Protestant—(applause)—one who would support the Church of. England as the safeguard of the-Protestant religion, but who was also willing to extend .to others the means of serving God in the manner which they preferred. With regard to matters of local interest, he would do ev,Tything in his power for the interest of the electors. He would always be found willing to hear any suggestions, and try to carry their wishes into effect. He would not detain them longer, but at once introduce Mr. Carrie to their notice. (Cheers.) Mr. CARNE came forward, and was received with tremendous cheering and waving of hats. He said he felt himself much flattered by the kind manner in which they had received him. He feared that he might not be able to express himself in a manner which should be at all equal to the strong eulogy which had just been passed upon him by the Chairman. He did not feel entitled to all that had been said of him, but so far as his time and ability were concerned, no one could be more ready than lie would be to devote them to their service. (Applause.) He had been for some years almost retired into private life, during which time his attention had not been given to local matters as much as it ought, and as much as other people's had; and as lie had not been a public speaker for some time, he hoped they would extend their indulgence to Min. He had been told that his politics and religion were not known to many, and that he thought very natural; but he had to say that he was a Conservative in every sense of the word.. (Laughter and cheers.) He had been a Conservative as long as lie could remember. His father had been a Conservative, and he had lived for eighty years respected by all—so much so, that at the . period of his death, all parties seemed to vie in eulogising his memory. When he thought that with such principles his father had done so, be thought that the principles which he possessed were good. HiS father's motto had been " Live and let live," and such were his own principles. He had always been a Conservative, and if anything had been necessary to require him to hold to these prin ciples, it would have been the wholesale abuse which Was heaped on Conservatives by the opposite party. To hear them, it would be thought that there was no bribery but 1.;) , the Conservatives. (A voice : Wake &ld !) They all remembered Mr. Horsfall in Derby,. and on that occasion one man said he had received money from the Reform Club, which was to be ex pended in bribery. Then they had another .instance, in Gloucester,' that it was not the Conservatives who bribed, but the Liberals. It was, quite certain if the Liberals did not exceed the ConserVitives, they were rA g er u fr i o. t r e lmv e e q mr u s. a l hE t e o w a t e r h vt e e m rt h. meta t They tare with. a n d s ei i ii t vea o t n (i my e t rs h . e wc testimony en o sot f objection to reform the abuses which might be pointed out. In his religious opinions he was a Churchman, but had been attached to the Low Church ; but lie could not object to other for es of worship. H e did lament that in many places the clergy had adopted many old forms and ceremonies that were of no value, and had received an amount of opposition in the church,' which had been followed by bad results. With regard to the objection to the Bible, lie was convinced that the Bible should not only be read, but taught in the cor poration schools. He thought the party who objected to it should haVe given some reason why it should not be read. Some might say that they would not object so much if the Douay version was read ; but the difference was not so great as to be observabl e t o gene ral readers, and certainly not to children. There must be some other motive, he was convinced. It was a wish to keep people in the darkness and in ignorance. No one who wished well to the lower classes should attempt to exclude the Bible from the schools where their chil dren ware taught.. He had now explained his religious principles, and lie would say a few words on the rading of the docks ; and with respect to that question, he had always been in favour of having the docks rated. He could not conceive why the decks should not be rated. It was held that there was no beneficial interest ; but as there was a profit arising from the docks, so there must be a beneficial interest to some party, and why should they not pay the rates ? He had been on the Select Vestry, and he knew that a great number of people were brought over from Ireland by better wages being paid. When these people came he re , th ey got work for a short time at the docks, and then they remained on the parish; and he thought there was no doubt but that the docks should contribute their fair proportion towards the support of these people. He then said he should be glad to answer any questions put by any person present, as his local knowledge was not so great as it had been, and no doubt they might think of some things he had omitted. He expressed his regret that Mr. Hubbock had not been able to contest the election • but he should do his best to discharge his duty if elected. He sat down amid loud cheers. The CHAIRMAN said he had received a note from Mr. An.2erson, expressing his regret that he wag unavoidably absent. Mr. DREA PER then rose and moved the following reso lution :—" That this meeting, having heard the state- NORTHERN DAILY TIMES. meat of Mr. Carnes, consider, him a fit and proper.peocin,, to represent this ward in the Town Conncil, andlicreby: pledges itself to use its utmost endeavota , to.secure his triumph:art - return." They were at last met in a party. conflict.. He , stated it plainly, because, he felt that he entered into it as a partyman, and opposed!to a party. (Hear, hear.) 'They were charged in the. papers. with being hypocrites; but he did not hesitate to.say be was a .Conservative,(hear, 'hear)—and he believed they . were. in '..the Majority, and they would stand to their; colours, and 'no surrender.. (Cheers.) He did not wish to say anything disrespectful to Mr. _Stitt.;,be respected a man who explained his, views, on a publie. platform. They lived in the land uf•liberty-,-great rich. treasures of liberty had been handed . tdown to theni, and they were just Conservadve enough to retain: these; blessings. Liberty was .nOt, in Frm - Ice, in Rome, in Austria, nor even . in America ; hut .gn g l4l4_, was truly the laud of libetty. A friend of. Mr. Stitt's ' had said that that gentleman wa, - > lilie the Irishman I. at Donnybrook fair;• that was dragging his coat ulqiit • . and could not get any Piib to 'put foot on it, but now' they had ~ctot a non who had come out and put his fot , On it.' (Laughter - and eheerg.) - ' - Pint Mr. Stitt, wl.ea he felt the drag on his coat,' Went about saving,. ‘!

'(Great laughter.) Mr, Dreaper proceeded' with an excel lent and humerous speech, which want of space preVents , us giving. • The motion was seconded by Mr, G. Potts, and sup ported by Mr. Crosthwaite ; and on its being put to the meeting, was carried amid cheers. A vote of thanks was. proposed to the chairman by Dr. Chalmers, seconded by Mr. Longton, and the meeting separated. • ST. PETER'S WARD. A public meeting of the friends of Mr. 11. C. Beloe, one of the candidates for the repreentation of St. Peter's Ward in the Town Council, was held last night, in the Clarendon-rooms, South John-street. The chair was occupied by Mr. 0. T. Bowrinf.T. In the opening remarks, the Chairman said that they did not anticipate any opposition in the ward ; and Mr. Holme's conduct Iliad led them to this conclusion,' as he never in any instance contradicted ibe reports Current in town, and occasionally noticed in the public prints, that he in tended to retire inio private life on the expiring of his term of office. Indeed it was evident he intended and wished to do so, but he had been dragged forward by his party. Under these circumstances they had re quested Mr. Beloe to come forward; and they would coincide with him when he said, they could not find a More fit or proper person. • Mr. IliarnsGs then moved that Mr. H. C. Beloo is a fit and proper person to represent St. Peter's Ward in the Town Council. The motion was seconded by Mr. WINCHESTER, and was carried unanimously. Mr. BELOE, who was greeted with great applause, said that he could not express what he felt at this cor dial reception, seeing that he was not a native of the town. He had, however, a great interest in Liverpool, and he owed it a debt of gratitude. As to his coming forward in the capacity of candidate for the representation of the ward, he did not come forward to throw amongst them the brand of discord; for if Mr. Holme had inti mated to him privately, or otherwise, that he intended to stand, there would have been no contest so far as ho was concerned. The requisition which was presented is him was so under the. impression that there was a vacancy, and, therefore, Mr. Holme opposed him—not he Mr. Holme. He did not wish anything he might say to be construed into disrespect of that gentleman, as he had often met him under various circumstances, and had always found him gentlemanly and straightforward. lie then re ferred to the Finance Committee, remarking that he differed from them in many things, although open to conviction if any one will show him that he is wrong. lie could not understand the logic of making the in come equal every year by some extraordinary revolution. He did not doubt bat the magnificent corporate estate of the tow❑ was perhaps as well managed as any other ; but he could not submit to the dictation of the Finance Committee, or any one else, if they did not give him reasons for what they did. He had long audited the accounts of the Corporation, and he could only charac terise that duty in Liverpool as a farce, a delusion, and a snare. He could not but consider Mr. Holme an ineligible person to represent theni in the Council, holding, as he did, a high place in the Dock Board. It was clearly impossible for any man to hold high • offices in both, and do his duty fairly between them. Beloe then referred to the late defalcations in the market accounts, the approaches to the landing-stage, and some other matters of local in terest, concluding by saying that if he was returned, he would do his best to have a better system of supervision over the expenditure introduced ; anti in doing so, would be influenced by no party or clique whatever. Mr. DAItSIE then proposed, and Mr. RICKARBY seconded, " That this meeting pledge itself to the return of Mr. H. C. Baloe, on the Ist of November." The motion was carried unanimously. The business of the meeting concluded by movine , a vote of thanks to the Chairman, which was warmly responded to. THE LONDON SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING CHRISTIANITY AMONG THE JEWS. Last night, the anniversary meeting of the Liverpool Auxiliary to this society was held in the Collegiate Institution. The Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of the Diocese occupied the chair ; and the Rev. C. J. Good hart, M.A., minister of Park Chapel, Chelsea ; and the Rev. Thomas Nolan, of London (formerly of this town), attended as a deputation from the Parent . Society. Amongst the other gentlemen on the platform, we observed the Rev. Dr. M'Neile, the Rev. J. B. I.owc, the Rev. 11. Carpenter, and a considerable number of the local clergy. The meeting' having been opened with prayer, The RIGHT REV. PRELATE delivered a brief intro ductory address. He said he joined heart and hand with them in every effort they could make for that great object—the conversion of the Jews. When they spoke of the conversion of the Jews, there were two different points of view with which the subject might be regarded. They might look back to that great result, that trium phant consummation foretold in prophecy, when all the nations of Israel will be converted to the true faith, and there will be one fold for Gentile and Jew, under one Shepherd, Jesus Christ, the Lord of All. Now, the precise time when that great restoration of the Jewish people will take place, has not been expressly revealed to us. It was still reserved in the depths of God's eternal counsel. It was, or it seemed to him, to be a matter not within their own reach for common logical calculation, but rather a matter for humble, patient, hopeful faith. Well, that was one aspect. There was another—for meanwhile, even now, there was a real work going on in the same direction- 7 0ot so extensive, not so grand, not so imposing in its effect upon the 1 mind ; but still a real work. He meant the conversion of individuals from among the mass of Jewish people, by which they . were brought continually under the influence of the Christian faith ; and it was to this object that the efforts of their society were directed. (Applause.) The Rev. J. B. LOWE, the local secretary, then read the report. This stated that the society had now thirty different stations occupied by their missionaries. There were 30 ordained missionaries, 29 unordained mis sionaries, 29 colporteurs, Scripture-readers, &c. ; 27 schoolmasters and mistresses, with their assistants : making a total of 115, of whom 56 were converts from Judiasm. (Applause.) The report stated, as affecting local operations, that the German Church and Hebrew services, under the Rev. D. J. Hirsch, had been well attended durin( -, the year. There had been many in quiries ; and the number of Jews visited amounted to 138. The,income of the Parent Society showed the increased interest which was taken in the work, the amount, contributed to it by associations last year ex ceeding 'that o f th e previous year by £l,lOO. The income of the Local Auxiliary was .E 776 19s. 4d., showing an i) crease over last year of £125 odd. There . were now ei g t een b ranch assoc i at i ons in Liverpool an d 1 its suburbs, b e g an in crease of three since last year. Mr. 11. J. 1 EBSTER r ead a detailed statement of the 1 accounts; and The Rev. Dr. M'NEILE, who was received with ap plause, moved the first resolution—for the adoption, &c., of the report and the re-election of the officers of the local auxiliary. He dwelt at considerable length upon the obligations of the Christian world towards the Jewish people. He proceeded at some length to detail the peculi ar views which he is well known to entertain upon this subject; and, in concluding, stated that, for some years, the income of the society had been increas ing ; yet the labours of the society had not extended. The result of his inquiries upon the subject was this, that in the great towns upon the Continent, where their agents were principally found, since the Russian war increased, so that it a-year to receive to , Deeeive £l2O. „ . i the N£N,laos 0 7 n x eca p -y e e n ts s aa e rr s y o a f fno 4 dr i ; ;l94 ,aos :hati The Rev.

They should be. ooked . upon as dying sinners. They were scatteredoier the earth ; but Christ was of the seed of Abraham, and the son of David; and was it possible, he asked, that a could pass away thus linked with i on Saviour ?, :He, wished every Christian to consider well . the question, ITQW does it affect me that.ChriA' wasthe Son of David ? for questions . like this opened r e.it a mine .of .

Prayer;Rook, and various books and tracts had been translated into Hebrew ; and there were now thousands. 'of Jews, .especially ttpou the Continent, affected by the teaching thus afforded and by their missionary efforts. The rev, speaker gave several instances in. illustration, and sat down amid considerable applause. - ' i The second resolution was moved by the Rev., Mr. Nolan, and seconded by the Rev, Dr. Taylor. A collection was made on behalf of the funds of the society; and after a vote of thanks to the Bishop for presiding, the meeting broke up. CONSERVATIVE DEMONSTRATION IN ESSEX. The annual meeting of the Hinckford Conservative and Agricultural Club was held at Castlolledingham, on Saturday. The chair was occupied by Mr. J. W. Perry Watlington, M.P. who was supported by the Right Hon. W. Beresford, M.P., Mr. Charles Du Cane, M.P., Mr. T. J. Miller, M.P., Mr. P. 0. Papillon, M.P., Sir W. P. Smyth, M.P., &c: Mr. A. Majendie proposed the health of the member for North Essex. (Cheers.) Mr. Beresford, M.P., said, since the last meeting of the association, a very extreme and strong Reform Bill had been brought forward—not by those who would be the most fit and appropriate promoters of such a measure, but by the leaders of the Conservative 'party in the House of Commons. Those leaders had, previously to 1858, opposed any innovation in our representative system, but they nevertheless brought forward a strong Reform Bill. He did not approve--and who with straightforward views could have approved ?—of the course taken to arrest the pro gress of that bill; and lie had felt it his duty to stand by Lord Derby, and vote with his government against the resolution of Lord John Russell, not because he was enamoured of the Reform Bill which was under discus sion, but because he plainly saw, and it was evident, that the object of Lord John Russell was to drive the occupants of the treasury benches from their position, and to appropriate their places to his own party. On a retrospect of the last kw years, he (Mi.. Beresford) could not see a very great and distinct difference between a Conservative and a Liberal Government, when they' were in actual possession and installed. Conservatives in power were all for progress, and in that enlightened mode they not only talked but acted extremely liberally. They actually proposed and passed the very measures which they had vitupe rated, and of which they had shown the danger. Again, v eri e fr in on o t ffi ad ce n i f frequently ellt S en o t i l t y l Yf assumedairth s a a i y i e t x h t a r t e . n t l h o e y l o V o l n ls ;v position. Long disquisltions on Liberal Conservatives and Conservative Liberals had bees heard from Whig treasury benches ; and in the late session, and par ticularly towards the close of it, he heard many members On his own side deprecate aay proceedings adverse to the present Government, as the Conservative ele ment in the cabinet was very predominant. For his owd part, instead of bailing with pleasure this approxi mation" to the same creed between antagonistic parties, who, for a century and a half ? had held diametrically opposite opinions upon political matters and political conduct, he viewed it with some suspicion and alarm. It arose, lie feared, from a dereliction of principle, through an overwhelming desire to obtain power. He had not approved of all that Lord Derby had done and was doing • what was more, he could not agree that noble lord's administration in much they had conceded ; but he wished to give them what they had not obtained, namely, fair play, and he owned also that he had a firm, and he trusted, a conscientious dislike to that constant and eternal change of govern ment which was now the order. of the day. (Hear, hear.) Next session, the policy of the new government would be fully developed, and among the measures which would be brought forward, no doubt a reform bill would be the most prominent. He should wait till ho saw the objects of that bill, and the means by which the latter were to be secured, before he gave an opinion on the subject. The unjust attempt at the total and uncon ditional abolition of church-rates was, however, a clear and recognised subject. It was useless to look at the details or the way in which such iniquity and spolia tion were to be carried out ; his opinions on the sub ject was distinct, firm, and unalterable. He looked upon the scheme of church-rate abolition as an effort to take away from the church property which had been recognised for years as belonging to it, and which had been given by our ancestors to those sacred fabrics in r r i e ti sbhumri man - f -war Cs still ravvaetihveers coloursbfl yyinthge, which we adored our God, and i n which our fore fathers we, rudsp Upon nm d eol l n i y e e, r mt h d oe e r t e e m r m sol i bi n oj a ne t e i t o m n i ed u e wn lastdi s a h u e s t e c church-rates, and it th e y, were to b e def e at e d. let. the d. g fa o t o h d e r o s l d w ß e Id to s ( l 4 H e y r e a a r c , o f i e h l mon" for throwing the office of Lord Chancellor of Ire land open to Roman Catholics. That scheme; of course, w:th his Protestant ideas, he did not admire, and he thanked God there was still in the British House of Commons • a strong Protestant party, who were deter mined to resist the plan. He trusted the Protestant constituencies of England would jog the memories of their representatives—a course which was always attended with a certain weight and effect—if they wished to be protected from a fresh aggression from Rome. (Cheers.) THE HON. MR. AND MRS. NORTON AT KETTLE THORPE HALL, NEAR WAKEFIELD.,--During the past, week, the Hon. Mr. and Mrs. Norton have been at their old scat, Kettlethorpe Hall, near Wakefield, the occasion being the painful ono of the burial of their eldest son. The remains of the deceased, Fletcher Cavendish Chas. Conyers Norton, first secretary of legation at Athens, who died at Paris on the 13th instant, at the early ' age of thirty, were brought to the seat of his ances tors last week, the lying-in state taking place in the interior of chapel at the end of the lake. The of the chapel was hung with black cloth. The. coffin was placed on a bier in the centre. On the head of the lid was a figure of Christ crncified,, with wreaths of everlastings, and . a scroll, • bearing a motto ; then the spiel i, with obituary, a wreath of everlastings, yellow, and bound with black flowers, of French manufact/re, terminated the bust ; then a wreath of variegatAfurs, &c., on the bosom, followed by wreaths of eyorlastings. The oak shell was deco. rated with shields, with the cross in the -centre. On -either side-f,- - rthe bier were platforms, with wax candles also silver o b n ran th eh e esrigehft threeand l lights,e ft by m i m u n t bur "g, and branches of three light s a t th e h ea d, l e e s d ; iat a e i l l y d o o ff n either side of the chapel, o n e l eva t e d p l at f orms, stood the chief mourners' stalls. The whole had a solemnly imposing effect, and hund re d s v i s it e d th e ceremo nial during Thursday last. On Sunday, the inter ment of the deceased took place at Sandal, according to the ceremonials of the Roman Catholic Church. The Hon. Mr. and Mrs. Norton, the brother of the deceased, and Sir Henry Johnson, were the ehi.f mourners. Mrs. Norton was evidently in deep affliction, and she has, both before and since the funeral, been paid every atten tion by her husband. The party have dined pgetlier every day at the Pledwick Well lan; and it is lialy . d twat the great sorrow v. itich has come have the effect of chastening those asperities and animo sities which have, unfortunately, e mbittered so many years of Mr. and Mrs. Norton's domestic life. CORRESPONDENCE. (We do not hold ourselves responsible for the opinions of our correspondents.] MR. CLARKE ASPINALL AND FAMILY CLAIMS. TO TIM' EDITOR, OF TIM NORTHERN DAILY TIMES. ilceetynasot t a o it i o h g e e i t l l l i d er llb n i t o a v i.:l l e n a n t u e re . h o as f his exe c c u l a t e i s fo u r p o u n s SlR,—This ad ro it y oung gen tl eman , w ith a la u d a bl e d am e : the suffrage s o f. t h e St. Anne's electors, has hit upon a f d a i m ng ily up g o r n ou c p on , t ‘ r v a li s i t e , h ileex pts notwithstanding will tr t o h w e favourable relief, as at present the most promi nenthad nimg lntoers attractive ti t n fl ure a o l f •ti t s i t l i e c touch, perhaps other than superficial piece. Giving every credit for the observers may be disposed to .question whether he has chosen the Most 'attractive guise, in thus presenting himself before the public as the attenuated shadow of a respected name. He has suggested to us in the first ease an unfavourable, and in the second, an unpleasant association. The mantle of his grandfather virtuous and' respected tradesman, who won his way to the chief social position - in his native town—sits awkwardly on his degenerate shoulders. When Mr. Aspinall conies•for ward in Whig-Radical colours, he would do well to sink the memory of a name so indissolubly ~onnected with—so thoroughly steeped and infased in—the "back ' bone " Toryism of Liverpool.' Could John Bridge Aspinall rise from his grave, he would disown as a recreant and pervert, so faithless a representer of his family traditions. The Aspinall name in Liverpool con nects all its prestige with polities; and when a vain and light-headed youngster offers to inaugurate.a new political history he has made an ugly break in the chain, and must rest his claims exclusively upon the indepen dent position he has assumed. If the name of Aspinall dwells with any charm in the memories of the St, Anne's electors, they will turn with instinctive disfavour from its present unworthy representative. A Whig Aspinall, appealing to his ancestry, turns himself into a political impostor. As for Mr. Clarke Aspinall's nearer progenitor, it would ill become me to reflect upon a—l doubt not most worthy—dignitary of the Church of England. Unless his son had brought forward even the sacredness of the paternal character, to strengthen his political claims, it would have been sufficient to reflect how much more consistently and how mull more respectably the rector of Althorpe discharges the duties of his high station, than the necessities of a partisan of the Radical party. Yet neither does the latter accident of this clergy man's Liverpool career weaken the Tory traditions of his family, nor add a grace to the political degeneracy of his son. Since it is a familiar tradition to old Liver pudlians to give a somewhat sinister interpretation to this phase of his life. So far as a clergyman ought to be, the once incumbent of St. Luke's was, no doubt, at one time, an adequate representative of his hereditary political creed. I'trhaps, if the old Tory Corporation had wished to retain the party allegiance of a clergy man, who bore the name of their most respected mem ber, they acted unwisely in disappointing his expectations of the junior Rectory of Liverpool. But when the Rectory of Althorpe has rewarded him for his sudden change of politics, let us not bring his memory again on the political arena of a town, which, as it was perhaps ungrateful to his merits, cannot revert to his previous connection with its politics, without some sort of dis satisfaction.--Yours truly, nicicY SAM. CASTLE-STREET WARD. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN DAILY TIMES. Srn.,—l beg to call the attention of your readers to Mr. F. S. Hull's letter in the Daily Post of Saturday, and they will not fail to notice the very temperate com ments he passes upon the " Polite Literature " indulged in by Mr. Steains. Yesterday being Sunday, I hope Mr. Steains may have attended to his own proyers, if, as he says, his opponents do " forget to say their's ;".and that his mind may have been awakened to the passage in our Church Litany asking deliverance from " evil speaking." I .do not doubt the Conservative electors will show him on the Ist November how they appreciate his "choice language," and how they value the promise he made three years ago when he appeared before the electors of Castle-street Ward to solicit their votes.
