Lord Stanley has told .us that zlreadv the governmeni has come nuclei: guarantees to the =mount of something like .37 millions, in relation to the prosecution of railroads and other public works. He has told us that 'there are 5,000 miles of railway already projected, and that 3,000 miles of railway arc actually in ioonrse Of execution. He has told us that guarantees to some extent have been given in relation to irrigation; and he has also told ous that the attention of. the govern anent wiil be earnestly directed to the laws which relate e.-,servatious which were made in the House of Commons the other day, all the other means would be almost use less. (Hear.) Gentlemen,_ it has been a source of. deep eaton supply, question With such apathy. I do think' that is a blot upon our intelligence. I believe it is not a manufacturers question. I believe that it is, as I said before, a question of progress and a question of civili sation. 1 believe that it is the great question of India, and believe that it is the great question of Africa. (Hear, hear.) I believe it is a question which not only tone' rns our manufacturers, but which concerns our agriculturists, which concerns our shipowners, . our merchants, our artizans, and our labourers, and every interea which is bound up in this great empire of ours. 1 am persuaded that I address men— you will excuse me if I for a moment say a few words upon this subject, I persuaded it is a subject which ought to ttention—l am persuaded that I address o see, if they live the natural period e the present cotton crop, and 1 believe lsidered as not sof the world.

Now it was feared, on the other hand, that the narrowin,c; of tl cart night necessitate the lessening the size of the loads, and, by so doing, the rates of cartage (now said to be as ble) would be raised,% and trade abject was in the hands of the much reduced as poi injured. However, t Town Council, to whom I no doubt it would subject of working ti 31e . i.sey board, in November 1857, "kit which though then only . formally acknowledged was, he was happy to say; now receiving every attention, the dock engineer, the harbour-master, and the dock ' s and quays com mittee of the dock board, having reported , upon the memorial, and it was . still having attention. , The 'subject of bills of lading was noticed in the report, and though the notic hid reference only to- the minor question of putting a serial number upon bills of lading, still it occupied much time in the Council, and was yet reserved for further discussion. A more important branch of that subject was the present serious multiplica tions taking place in Liverpool of the forms of , bills -of lading. Those who were in business fifteen or twenty years ago, would remember that only one form of bill of lading was then called lot.' to. cover shipments to any quarter, but now the forms are multifarious. He held in his hand thirteen different forms, and there were many others. Nor was this all. ' lie bad with him the form of bill of lading used in America, to* pass the vast amounts of • cotton and property shipped there, and this simple but effective bill of lading contained only _ 181 printed words, whereas, in'some of the new bills of lading, adopted in. Liverpool, there were 465 words. The clauses introduced were so various and ex tremely conflicting, that a merchant, after he had read over hi s bill s o f l a di ng , was a t a loss to know whether the ship' s lo s ji fe es tte clausesdelive r y o f th e goods.

I shall touch it very tenderly. I think the Emperor of the French has given a pledge to Europe and4e-the-ivotl(l 3 -41tat-hie- empire---und—bis—goTernment shall be a government and .an empire of peace. (Hear, hear.) - 'England is a confiding nation.. We trust, and trust heartily, until we find ourselves deceived. I think the speeches delivered in debate upon the - address to the Queen, by our statesmen oiall shades of political opinion, do them infinite honour. Although, as you all know, the delivery of the Queen's Speech is Com monly made the occasion of fighting . the battles of party, all tnat was uttered upon that.oecasion,was the expres sion of a hearty, and, I believev an honest conviction, of what they believed to be the interests of Europe and of the world at large. If, then, the Emperor of the Frenth be sincere, and that his government is to be.a government we look to him now in the midst, it may be, of ficulties, of some trials, and some temptations— to him for the fulfilment of that 'pledge and we put upon him the deep ;responsibility of shrink ing from the principle which bound England and Europe to him, which has sustained him and kept him, I believe, in firmness upon his throne—we look to him for the fulfilment of that pledge, and then he may test assured that he will have that confidence which he will then so justly deserve. (Applause.) The chairman then alluded to the fact that,the Corporation had called upon the council of the chamber, to lend them their aid withthepostal authorities, as to fixing the site of the post-office in Liverpool. He stated that, during the last week, he went to London with Mr. Shuttleworth, the town-clerk, and had a very satis factory interview with the post-office authorities, from which he had no doubt, whatever, that it might be taluin for granted that the Dale street site would be fixed on e for the Liverpool post-office. The chairman Ito the chamber, upon the occasion of his re- expres; tiring , . from the 'hair, his thanks, for the kindness which had been shown to him during the period he had occupied it. He believed that they, had the elements of progress and prosperity in the year now entered upon. They had the elements of cheap money, of cheap corn, of comparatively-cheap cotton,—their artisans and labourers never more fully employed. All they regnired to unlock them was the key of confidenc( and peace. That key s in the hands of one man hat man would use it -key, whiih.they who would Chairman then concluded, by moving ihat the report be adopted. Mr. Charles Robertson seconded the motion, directing portant questions affecting in the present - session. He stated that the council el it their duty to consider carefully the measures t forward, and to lend their influence to wou :o be brou iatever proposal might seem advantageous to trade in neral. He also expressed his gratification at the ntroduction in the cord trade of the cental " system of t was thought very desirable that .permission )tained.Jo have the decimal weights. stamped 1 that the steps which the-thin end of the manner; and a taker we to be 0 - won introduction of, the hts and measures', as decimal system into all their wei well as into coinage of the country 3.1r: - Roberisori isfaetion to the act passed by thu Canadian parliament, rendering void and punishabh any perpetual assignments for the benefit o creditors, and having urged upon all those referred with ,ortance of endeavour to increase and to make it effecti tad wo THE NORTHERN TIMES, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1859 v F - :Board deferring the consideration of the report on thb`ralanagement of the docks and quays, epresented by the cooicil - ot the chamber.— - lle - was - very - glad - lb - find - that the whole questions was at once, to come on% for consi deration,- and that the chairman of the present meeting had re-considered his determination, and would accept a seat in the committee, appointed for the-purpose. The Chairman : I beg your pardon. (Laughter.) Mr. Hutchison : I uriderstocid it to-be sa The Chairman : You are quite misinformed, Mr. Hutchison : At the last meeting of the Dock Board a notice of motion was given to that effect, and I supposed iti waswith your assent. Mr. Rawlins adverted to the French emigration scheme, and observed that, whilst he rejoiced at the partial success which had followed the efforts of the chamber and of other bodies he had to remind the meetingthat the Emperor of the French had .decided upon abolishing the system only on• the east coast of • • Afriea, and it was with. the; west'coast that the interests of England were particularly - bound up. A great deal had been lately said about the treaty of Vienna, with regard„, to Austria and Lombardy, to which lie would not refer ; but he begged ,to remind the chamber that the rights of the people of Africa were placed under the protection of the confederated powers by the treaty of Vienna as well as those of Austria to Lombardy. A declaration was made by the united ,powers, in 1815, proclaiming that the slave trade was piracy; and it would be destructive of the cause of advancing civilisation if France, one of the principal parties to that declaration, should now be permitted to ignore its provisions. (Hear, hear.) It was possible that the French Government had been misled as to the nature of the scheme she had been patronising, but it was certain that much plainer men found no ditAculty in making up' their minds upon it, and 'nothing short of its total abandonment would ever satisfy England. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Rawlins then proceeded at some length to direct their attention to the great importance of having the importation of, salt into India. He observed that no subject deserved the attention of Lord Stanley more than the salt monopoly of that empire. There the labouriug classes subsisted entirely upon a vegetable diet requiring larffe quantities of salt to make it healthy and palatable. The East India Company had taken advantage of this for revenue purposes, and although a clause in the act abolishing their trading character bad especially declared 'that they should " with all convenient speed close their owner- cial business and make sale of alltheir merchandise, stores, and effects at home and abroad, * * * and shall discountenance and abstain from all commerce which shall not be incidental to the closing of their actual their dissolution retained their monoiooly of salt. True, it had been inoclificd. in 1836. It was then admitted into Madras 'on a duty of about 2s 4d, into Bombay of 2s Bd, and into Calcutta of 6s 8d per cwt. But, as the salt chamber of this town had pointed out, in consequence of the want of bonding arrangements, and the refusal of the Government to allow wastage in private warehouses, the modification, so - far as 'Bombay and 11 , 1adras were concerned, had had no effect. The• salt chamber had suggested as a remedy That all imported salt should : be. bonded in Government stores, and the duty paid only .on what was delivered. But it was surprising that they .had, not suggested a much shorter solution of the difficulty, , viz., to repeal the duty .alto gether. (Laughter.) A parliamentary ,comniittee, of 1838 had so recommended, and now that it ,protected a monopoly in favour of the Crown, :it was still mire objectionable. Let theni look at it in the light of revenue. Did it fulfil the conditions so well laid down by Adam Smith, that a tax should yield to the Exchequer nearly all that it took , from the _ _ people ? On the contrary, £2,200,000 gross revenne'*as levied, and only £1,500,000 went into the Indian Exchequer. For every poand that went in, ten shillings had been expended on its collection. Then, again, look s upon the people— Elle would take the as an examPle. It contained ten Bengal Presidenc with their man had to st thereto; have to p nt twppenc .1(1 amount to 1Q it was that there were some manufactori.eSTayingjlpr £l5 that ought - to flay £BO. - Mr. - Cronin - said; what he - found fault with vrartbe expense of, getting this information,:while he ,und.erstood the collectors could have obtained it. They were en deavouring, to the best of their power, to keep the expenses of the establishment down. Last year they were £23,900 in expenditure over their income—a deficiency much:talked about—and now they were going to lay out £4OO in addition, which he thought might be prevented. The Chairman said, he had just heard from the treasurer that all the money was not spent yet ; , and if they could get from the collectors the required information there could be no objection. Mr. Ryley said, he was much mistaken if the information would not be worth more that £4OO. He thought, however, that it was a , bad, time to say that they were going wrong when they had spent the money, but if there was a cheaper ivay of getting the information, let them have it. Mr. Bennett said, from the remarks of a gentleman at that board, a few weeks ago, there was great dissatisfac tion among the manufacturers , as to the supply, and he (Mr. Bennett) thought there. was information to be ob tained •' which they could not rely on the collectors obtaining. , The Engineer considered that the result of the matter in reference to the manufacturers would be satisfactory, and very desirable. They would then be in a position to charge every gallon that was used. , . Mr. Crellin asked if the meters could ne4., have been fixed to • the various manufactories and breweries without the resolution at all ? _ . The Engineer, after some irrelevant explanations, said. that they bad the power if they liked. • The Town-clerk was then called upon to read Mr. Jeffery's resolution, the terms of which have already been published. Mr. Farnworth remarked, that its requirements could not have been carried out by the collectors. The Engineer said, the cheapest mode of getting the returns had been adopted, with a view to economy and efficiency. They did not intend to adopt an expensive mode, and he did not know that a shilling had been thrown away that could be helped. Mr. Crelhn did not mean to say that Mr. Jeffery had adopted this mode, but somebody had adopted it. Mr. Earle asked what discount they would get by this conversation on the subject ? Mr. James Holme said it was very easy adopting such resolutions, but generally expensive in carrying them out. It was not only what was paid for extra work, but the evil of, taking the clerks from their general duty which was all important. • The Chairman was of opinion that the collectors could not obtain the information. Their business was to collect money. The subject then , dropped without any result. There was no other general business, and the corn mittee then proceeded to the matters of finance.

The proportion of Rivington to well water was as 34 to 41. Mr, Duncan further reported that the Roddesworth reservoir rose six inches during the week • the Anglezark 1 ft. 21 inches ; Rivington 21 inches ; inch ; Prescot 1 inch ; Mountrey reservoir fell 1 In the minutes of the proceedings of the sub committee of works was the following resolution :—" We recom mend that, on and after the 24th March, 1859, all brewers, and manufacturers, and other establishnients (other than domestic), be supplied. with water by meter." Mr. Crellin asked if this resolution would not interfere with Mr. Jeffery's motion of obtaining information. as to what establishments were not supplied with meters ? Mr',_Dtuican, the engineer, stated that, in the cogrso-of a fortnight, - lie.would have the information complete to lay before the committee. 'ln reply to Mr. Crellin, the engineer and the treasurer stated that some of their men had been engaged, for the last fortnight, obtaining this information, at expense of thirteen guineas a week. Mr. Crellin submitted whether this information was worth the expense likely to be incurred. Mr. Jeffery said he was not aware what the results of the information might be worth, but he took it that it was their duty to make the most out of the works they could, and to supply the manufactories uniformly. Mr. Crellin said he was told this enquiry would cost about£4oo ; a matter which the ,collectors might have given satisfactory information upon. Mr. Jeffery said, if there was any ono mode in its results more economical, he took it that it would be the duty of those who were carryinc , it out to have adopted that mode. He simply wanted the result. But certain THE EMPEROR'S SPEECH The Daily News city article observes that an imme diate outbreak is no lontrer anxiously apprehended, but a deeply rooted feeling of heaViness - remains. The Emperor's speech suggests no solution . of the existing difficulties. His policy remains as closely veiled as ever, if his intentions are as pacific as his words imply_ What is the meaning of the enormous armaments he has set on foot ? ' Public confidence will not quickly revive even at the bidding of the Emperor. • The Times, in a leadihm article, contrasts the speech with the preparations with Which Eitrope has been alarmed for six weeks past, and attributes the change to the cairn remonstrances of England and Germany. The Morning "'psi says—The whole speech displays a resolution not to be trifled with. He who reads it and does not see the critical state of European affairs, must hatertemarkable power of missing the •most obyioui of conclusions. It may be taken as' certain that the affairs of Italy must, ere long, be brought to a climax, and that if Anstria till not listen to pacific counsel, Sardinia, aided by France, will fight on 'the question of Italian nationality. The Herald attributes the prospects of peace to the firmness of the English ministry, and the language of Lord Malmesbury, to the ascendancy the commercial element has'gained in. France. Moreover, it adds, public opinion has declared itself strongly in favour of a pacific policy, and the most powerful rulers arc compelled to respect its decrees. The Advertiser says—The speech is very mysterious — it may read any way; one part betrays a somewhat paci fic tendency, the other is quite warlike. COMMEWIT A I The excitement in the Stock Exchange to-day was such as is rarely witnessed. The news of the rally of 1 per cent. attained by the French Funds, on Saturday, and by a further rise of lti per cent. at the Little Bourse, on Sunday, caused the Stock Markets here to open ,with a feverish appearance, and a great advance was quickly, established in all the leading securities. The immediate impression produced by the speech was one of disappoint ment, and Consols fell to within i t of the closing quota tiOns of Saturday.. After the recognised hours, a renewed speculative demand sprung up, and an improve ment of . 1 or I por cent. was quoted. Most other classes of securities left off sensibly better than on Saturday,, though considerably below the -prices attained prior to the actual receipt of the speech. The Discount Market remains easy. First-class bills were negociable to-day at 2 i ,t, to 21 per cent.. There were no gold, operations at the Bank to-day. Compared.with the closing prices of yesterday, the French Rentes on the Paris Bourse show a rise of per cent. The market for Sardinian Stock was firmer to-day, inasmuch as sales were practiCable, but the price was no better than 80 to 82. The Scrip of the new Australian Loan was quoted, at one period, to 1. premium, but the qucitation was nominal, and was weaker in the afternoon.—Daily News City Article Monday Evening. There were sanguine expectations as to the probable character of the speech of the French Emperor at the commencement of business this morning, The first transactions in Consuls were at an advance of per cent., and there was immediately a further improvement. The market then remained steady till towards the afternoon, when the ,favourable feeling began to subside, and the receipt of the Emperor's speech from Paris completely caused a reaction.— Times City Article Monday Evening. The Cairngorm and Great Britain have arrived from China - with 1,798,7001b5. of tea. •The commercial advises from France mention serious defects in all- quarters from the policy of the Emperor. Numerous failures are reported; Among the largest disasters is -the stoppage of •Varmer and Roger, bankers, at Orleans, who were compelled to suspend after having paid alyay ; £Bo,ooo.during a run.. _ The; exchange quotations from China, reported on Monday, show an alteration in favour of this country equal to about 3 per cent. at Shanghia, and 23- per cent. at. Hong Kong, diminishing shipments of . silver are consequently- anticipated. On Monday advises were ren,ived from China showing that ,the exports of tea to date were 28,000,000- pounds,, showing a deficiency of 7,000,000 pounds.

AUSTRIA In the opinion of military men at Vienna, the assertion or the Paris Constitutionel that France could send. 400,000, or. 500,000 mcn across her fron tier is a great exaggeration. The Vienna correspondent of the Times can come to no other conclusion, than that Austria is prepared for war. The Austrian army at present consists of 450,000 men, of all arms, and in case of need it could be raised to 600,000 men. SARDINIA The Turin correspondent of the Times says that trade generally is completely - 1 stagnant, and that people declare the worst certainty to be preferable to the present suspense. THE EMPEROR'S SPEECH. PARIS, Monday Evenin The correspondent of the Herald says question of peace or war still hangs undecided in the balance. The Emperor's Speech is not considered as giving any assurance of peace, and it skilfully evades the eventuality of Possible - hostilities. The general impression it has produced is excessively unfavourable. The Emperor's language may mean. either peace or war, and has caused disappointment both among the peace and war party. The writer adds It is reported that the preparations at Marseilles and Toulon have been countermanded, but there is reason to believe that. such is not the case. On the contrary, four trains- chartered by Government daily arrive at Marseilles, and fourteen millions of, cartridges are stored in forts. The correspondent of the Times says that some think the Emperor's speech warlike at the bottom ; some think it pacific, but, with its pacific character disguised so that, in point of fact, either peace or war, may be eipected from it, and therefore that it does not dispense with the necessity of Europe remaining still prepared against eventualities. War, if it does not take peace this spring, as so often apprehended, may be merely adjourned. As the public had hoped that the speech would be' completely pacific, its effect has not been so satisfactory as might be 'desired. A certain shade of approbation was given during its delivery to the allusion to the Bordeaux declaration of the pacific, spirit of the Empire.

The bids reached 30,000,000 dollarS, and ranged from 103, to par. The pre vious ten millions of this Loan, which were awarded in August last, sold at a premium of 41 per cent. The aggregate. amount of bids was about •538,500,000, ranging from 7 3-10 per cent. premium to par. The deposits with the New York Sub-Treasury represented bids to -an amount of $18,500,000. It must be remerabered, however, that this Loan was issued at a time of existing commercial depression.

Factors and planters, however, are perfectly easy, and can hold a great deal of cotton until the fate of next crop is decided. There is a very strong feeling against the Liverpool com mission houses, operators here being of the opinion, that when spinners make 3d to 5d profit on every pound of cotton they buy, sellers ought to have shown sufficient unani mity and strength to share in this profit to some extent, instead of selling at a considerable loss. We think, under similar circumstances, holders when buyers were fully engaged, and at the discretion of sellers. It is astonishing how much inquiry there is for home use, and the Continent of Europe, Russia, the Mediterranean,' &c. During the last week but little Cotton has been cleared foi:England, and a determined spell of easterly wind might cause Cotton to be scarce with you in February and March. COTTON.
