BERT. kNDARD AILORS I 0 M E, NT WITH THE STANDARD, caRA - ris their Paper of lOGRAPHIC kTIONS, TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 14, 1846. • The town, we suspect, will hail with acclamation the effort which the Rectors, in co-operation with thßishop, are making to renew the work of chtlYch extension in Liverpool. It is long enough, &most too long, since the last undertaking of the kirrd was brought to a close. Every day is bringing an enlarged number of thinking men to the convic ion, that there is no other way of even humanizing the masses of fellow creatures which are accumulating around us, than by spreading re ligious influences amongst them, That which we have been slow to do. from the highest of principles, we are now finding the necessity of doing, from con siderations of prudence and self-defence. And is it not time for Liverpool to bestir itself, when it finds itself lying under the imputation of standing lowest in the scale of British towns in respect both of health and morals. The former stigma we are beginning to cope with, by the introduction of extensive sanatory measures. Spans are now proposed for abatin g th e ot h er ev il also, by extending % taat wisest, and best, and cheap esvof ail modes of police—which seeks to prevent crime instead of punishing it—,he police which aims at teaching what is good, instead of merely repres sing evil. One likes not to dwell on the full argument that exists for making this effort, and for making it very strenuously. To hear of the tens and twenties of thousands who are living at our very doors, in want of every means of C ian instruction, overwhelms ous shud ler; for, divide the blame e of things as we will, a painful por nains to every one. We would rather close s to the magnitude of our work, until some portion of it shall have been accomplished—until the light of morning shall show us some portion of our labour and peril past with a cor ,ion re sked the Bishop at the meeting the other day) would have had the heart to set about raising above £600,000 for the purpose of building churches, and £40,000 a-year for clergymen's salaries, if told ten years ago that such sums would be required ; and yet within that space of time those sums have been raises auspicious for making conquests already won. We .very day—and we grudge not to hear it —of the thousands which are shortly to be spent in pro moting loyal, and charitable, and social affections amongst u; for a single day. Some hearts must surely glow with a desire of doing honour, with at least an equal portion of their earthly substance, to the King of Kings, and of securing benefits to their fellow creatures which are to outlast the day or the year, or even the very hounds of time itself. The time, too, is sure this addition to t 3 which the present proposal con built under an Act passed a few years ago, usually known by the name of Peel's Act. Its great recommendation is, that it provides a sti pend of £l5O a-year, out of the Ecclesiastical Corn missioners' Fund, for every clergyman appointed under its provisions as soon as a church shall have been erected. churcl To secure such an endowment is, in fact, to re one of the chief difficulties which have been rto found in the work of church building. The hese churches is vested, by the Act, in d the Bishop of the diocese, ultimately. in his capacity of first nominator, has appointed clergymen to three out of the four dis• tricts which have been already formed, in each of which it is proposed to build a church. And in two has already commenced, purpose, let our aim be fixed ❑pon twenty thousand pounds; and twenty thousand pounds, we doubt The Ministry of Lord John Russell may now be regarded as formed. The bulk of its members have out even the semblance of an opposition being ffered to them ; and in a few days we may expect D see the legislative machine set n and guided by Whig hands. 1 -3 unprofitably employed in casting a may no In the eantime, I . glance over the materials, of which the is composed, and, from the slight hints a ar to d cv and ineasur ermine their me . , In all past attempts to conduct the government of Great I he WI the country, and . thir usual supporters, by their exclusiveness, and the tenacity they have shown in confining their appointments within the circle of some half-a-dozen families. Nepotism has been their characteristic, and the idea of jobbing is ever inseparably connected in our minds with Whig ascendancy. Unhappily for himself, Lord John Russell has not been able to steer clear of this rock a-head. With two or three exceptions, and with a somewhat altered distribution of, their offices, the present ministry is the resuscitation of the Mel bourne Cabinet. It has little of added popular ele ment; and absolutely nothing to win for it the increased confidence of sober and reflective politi cians. The enlistment of Mr. H. G. Ward, of ap propriation clause notoriety, suggests sad remin iscences of that infamous contract, by which the Church of Ireland was handed over for spoliation ; and the selection of an untried man in the person of Mr. Milner Gibson, remarkable only for one of the most glaring apostacies on record, for so impor tant an office as that of V ce-President of the Board of Trade, indicates, with tolerable clearness, that our commercial policy is to be henceforth dictated by those crude statesmen—the political tinkers, who have made the Chamber of Commerce of Manches ter an assembly, whose mention is the signal for inextinguishable ridicule and laughter. The remain der of the list is principally composed of the old hacks of past years, whose administrative incapa city has been again and again shown to be antipo dean qualities with their large pretensions. An administration thus composed can have in itself little pretension to permanence ; and the mode in which the responsibility for conducting the busi ness of the country has been distributed amongst its members is not calculated to inspire confidence in its efficiency. We cannot, for example, discover any great evidence of the fitness of Mr. Charles Wood for the office of Chancellor of the Exche• quer. The only circumstance,indeed, which accounts for his being in office at all, most people imagine to be the accident of his relationship to Earl Grey. As little are we able to discern Mr. Labouchere's fitness for the Iri h Secretaryship. Lord Palmerston's appointment as Foreign Secretary is a thing of course; but how the objections of Earl Grey, by which the last attempt of Lord John Russell to form a ministry were defeated, have been got over the public are not informed. He was a dangerous member six months ago; but we should imagine that he could scarcely change his nature as easily as he changed his political opinions and alliances. Sir J. Cam Hobhouse's recommendation for the Board of Controul cannot be his former administration of the duties of that office, connected with which the nation has some unhappy recollections of disaster; and, with respect to a number of the small fry, their pretensions to their various offices are to be tried, their past senatorial achievements containing little to inspire confidence in their discretion or their ability. It cannot escape observation that, with such a ministry, in the present state of parties, the govern ment of the country must remain virtually in the hands of Sir Robert Peel and his little band of Con servative supporters. Ultra-Whig legislation is ob viously impossible, unless the late premier is pre pared completely to reverse the policy, and surrender the principles, of his past political life, and his ad mirers, the 120 gentlemen who so readily followed him in his free trade movement, are prepared fur ther to stultify themselves. Mr T. B. Macauley, in his speech to the electors of Edinburgh, stated truly enough that the Whig party was the only one capable at the present crisis of forming an administration ; but even that self-satisfied gentleman would proba bly acknowfedge that his colleagues and himself can only govern permissively. Their measures, and the extent to which their principles shall be carried out, are laid down for them. '1 hey are to carry out the views of Sir Robert Peel. When they attempt to go further—when they start anything original, and, consequently, crotchety, the ex-minister will inter pose his veto and remind them of their subordinate position. The little that we know, thus far,' of their forth coming measures, affords abundant proof of this utter want of independence. In the purposed final settlement of the sugar duties, the ministry is only following to its conclusion the policy which dictated the surrender of protection to native industry. This is certainly to be the main measure of the present The only further hints which we have, as to coming measures, is the announcement that the Government is about to devote itself to measures of social amelioration. We may look for a sanatory bill, of which, no doubt, the bill of Lord Lincoln will be the foundation. We are to have an exten sion of the means of education for the people, upon the old Whig pattern, which has found such favour with Sir Robert Peel and Sir James Graham. We are not, at present, to h ye proposed to us the en dowment of the Popish Church in Ireland. That pear is not ripe. It will not go down with the dis senting constituencies any more than with the ma jority of the Established Church; and is probably reserved for a future master stroke of Sir Robert Peel himself. The revenues of the Establishment in Ireland, however, are doubtless doomed to be cut down for educational purposes ; and Sir Robert will support the robbery upon the plea of "perfect equality," which he proclaimed in his retiring speech. We are also to have a new settlement of the law as between landlord and tenant in Ireland. It is a part of the contract with Daniel O'Connell, and accounts for his present wonderful good hu mour with the world, and for Dungarvon being left , uncontested for Mr. Richard Lalor Shiel, notwith standing all the past threats of punishment for his recusancy. But beyon•l what is now chalked out, Lord John and his colleagues are not to stretch their fingers. Like children, they are to he per mitted to ride i a few of their favourite hobbies—to take a short airing upon the road of innovation ; but the ex-premier is to hold the reins and to carry the whip. session. We do not urge the fact of this control being ex ercised over them, to induce any one of our readers to lay aside his, or her, fears of the result of Whig incapacity and want of constitutional principle. On the contrary, we would urge them to increased THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. It is becoming more and more clear every day that there is something wrong in our present system of railway legislation. as there has been in all the previous systems, of which this is called an improve ment. It is difficult to find any two committees deciding upon the merits of rival schemes upon the evidence, or even determining, upon the same grounds, the question—what are rival schemes ? brought forward and proposed to be worked in con- Columittee B. is in CELEBRATION OF THE TWELFTH OF JULY Ysterday having been fixed upon for the celebration of the day of our del►verarce truce► ropery, by 11. at the Boyne, by William 111. of glorious memory, the Orange Brethren of L►verpool assembled at their various lodge-rooms, and proceeded to the Monument, in London- e defeat of . accompanied by several bands of music, and a number of beautifully executed flags and banners, down London road, along Lime-street, Renshaw-street, Berry-street, Great George's-street, St. James's-place, Miii-street, Warwick-street,Windsor.street,Upper Parliament -street, Smitbdown-lane, to Wavm tree. returning by Vt'avertree ___ Monument to their various lodges The proceeding ppy to say, were of ae throughout their lodge-rcoins, and going through the usual loyal toasts, the evening was spent by the brethren in great IL OF LODGE —To commemorate the glorious 12th of Juiy, this loyal and respectable body of Orange- .. . . men met yesterday evening, at Mr. Marshall's, Edge hill Coffee-house, where upwards of forty of the order sat down to dinner. The room was most tastefully de corated—flags emblematic of the order, and illustrative of British industry, were gracefully hung from the ceiling and walls, and numerous vases of flower; were distributed on the tables in a manner that geve a refreshing as well as a truly picturesque appearance to the apartment. The chandeliers were surrounded by evergreens, into which were gracefully entwined the choicest flowers of the sea son, not the least prominent of which was the magnificent orange lily. The chair, as a matter of course, was taken by the Master, and was filled in a manner alike creditable to himself and the society over which he presided. He was supported on the right by no less a personage than the Reverend T. D. Gregg, of Dublin, whose enthu siasm and frequent remarks were not only entertaining but intellectual. The late Deputy Grand Master was also present, as were numerous other equally impor tant individuals. A party of glee singers, some mem bers of the body, attended on the occasion, and their efforts were such as to call forth most deservedly the enthusiastic plaudits of all assembled. The dinner was not only substantial but excellent, and to the worthy host we do no more than a duty when we say it not oily comprised every variety of the season, but those varieties (unlike west dinners) were well cooked.

" The Queen Dowager and the rest of the Royal Family' s followed, and was most enthusiastically received. Glee—" The Two Roses." " The glorious, pious, and immortal memory of the great and good King William, Prince of Orange," was then drunk in solemn silence. Glee—" Lovely Night." The toast, " The Grand Master, the Earl of Enniskiller," was received with the Kentish fire, and followed by the glee. " Bright sword of Liberty." The toast of "The late Deputy Grand Master" was prefaced by a short address from the chair, and followed by the glee, " Hail Smiling Morn." The late Deputy Grand Master briefly replied, but in that brevity there was an expression of uncorrupted feeling and liberality that seemed to raise the already buoyant spirits of the party, and the en thusiastic cheers that followed but faintly illustrated the enthuastic joy it created. " The Worshipful Master of Lodge 42" was given from the vice-chair (which was most ably filled), and was ably responded to by the gen tleman proposed. Glee---.." Spring's delights," To the toast. " The Protestant Bishops and Clergy of the Dio cese," coupled with the Rev. T. D. Gregg, the latter gentleman replied at length, and we are only sorry that the lateness of the hour prevents us doing that justice to to his address that its merits deserve—for in a word he illustrated the present state of Protestantism, and the duplicity of popery. He showed the firm course he had pursued, and the position to be taken, and displayed a knowledge, a tact end talent, that in a few words it is im possible to describe. The address was loudly applauded throughout. Glee—" Good Night." The tollowing toasts we , e then given :—" The Town and Trade of Liver pool." Glee—"To all ve Ladies." "Our Visiting Friends." Glee—" Banish, 0 Maiden." " Lancashire Witches ;" and followed by a solo, with self accompaniment, " The Accomplished Young Lady." Numerous healths were afterwards drunk, and at a seasonable hour the company dispersed, each highly delighted with the hilarity of the evening and the loyalty that had been unanimously dis played. DINNER AT AIGDURTH About sixty of the members of Lodge Ni. 24 assembled at the Aigburth Hotel for the purpose of dining together, to celebrate the 12th July. The dinner was provided in Mr. Prest's best style, and the &sea, which was fresh from the garden, was most excellent. _ Brother John Payne, W.M., presided, and the vice' chair was occupied by the D.M. of the lodge. After the cloth had been removed the W.M. proposed the health of "her Mrej-s y t Qu fn, so long ai she is Protestant," which was drank witn three times three.

Then followed the health of " Her Majesty the Queen Dowager ; Prince Albert, and the rest of the Royal Family." The next toast proposed was, "The health of P.W.D.

This gentleman, too, is coming in for a slice of Whig_ Radical abuse, as witness the following letter, addressed to the Burgesses of Liverpool, in yesterday's Albion:— '• GENTLEMEN,—.I would recommend you to watch this gentleman pretty closely, for two reasons. First,—At a Free Trade meeting Mr. Moore was put forward to complain that a private compact was broken when Mr. Holland moved that CORN be included. Second,—He has received the thanks of the warehouse. owners for attending to their interest in that Council. room, where your interests only should be consulted. A. gentleman so recommended must not sit in the Mayor's chair. J. H. _ _ With respect to the first charge, we need only remark that the assertion that Mr. Moore was put forward at a " Free Trade Meeting" for this or any other object. is palpably untrue. That gentleman never attended a Free Trade meeting, or advocated Free Trade in sugar, corn, or any other commodity. With respect to sugar and coffee, he has always been in favour of a moderate protec tion to colonial interests; and with regard to corn, he has always advocated and still inclines to a fixed duty. The meeting referred to was a meeting of the Brazilian Association, called for the special consideration of sugar and coffee, at which it was distinctly uodeestood that the subject of corn would be out of place, and should not be introduced. Mr. Charles Holland intruded the corn question, and was of course, and deservedly, checked. The second is still more completely unfounded. Mr. Moore has not " received the thanks of the warehouse• owners." On the contrary, it is well known that the course which he has pursued has made him rather unpo pular with that bode. But the animus of the letter writer creeps out sufficiently in the last paragraph of the letter. Mr. Moore "must not sit in the Mayor's chair." Perhaps Mr. Fyre Evans, or some of his clique, would like to sit there. The bills of exchange, railway shares, and other docu ments, which were stolen from the Royal Bank, Liver pool, in May last, have been restored to Mr. Hobler. The thieves have kept the money. GALLANT AND HUMANE CONDUCT.—OD Sunday last, Captain Jannion, of the tug-boat Colchester, saw a young man who was drowning in the river, off the Albert Pier, and immediately jumped into the water to his rescue, and succeeded, after great difficulty, in saving his life. UNFORTUNATE MISTAKE.—The successful candidate for the first of the members' prizes (Dissertation in Latin prose), at Cambrioge, is Mr. J. J. Peroune, 8.A., of Corona Christi College. Owing to an error on the part of the examiners, in opening the mottoes, the successful dissertation was attributed to the wrong author. The latter repaired to Cambridge from a distant part of the country, and was present on Monday to recite his pro dultion in the Senate-house, when the unfort .xplained, and the necessary apnl nexion with existir your c the principle of separate management existing lay COminittee 1). thinks that chew of locomotion is not secured" to the public by the formation of two lines where one, well worked, would nrovide the renuisite. areommorlation. Kis in favour of cheapness of construction, at the expense of directness of route and perfection of gradients. F. would go as the crow flies, boring through hills and filling up valleys. We have some impressed in favour of lines which open out mineral deposits; some which look at the accommodation of passengers as the only object to be cared for. We have the friends of a broad guage and of a narrow guage,— in short, the different views under which committees legislate, may almost be called Legion, and their de cisions are not unfrequently Quite incomprehensible. Independently of these differences of opinion, on the part of committees, as to what should be the re commendation of a railway scheme to the sanction of Parliament, there have now crept in political and even private influences which, at least, greatly weaken the confidence of the public in the impar tiality of such tribunals. We see Members one day giving evidence in favour of a line which passes con veniently through his property in some county, and the next day, perhaps, deciding upon the merits of a line in which a member of the committee, which sate in judgment upon that evidence, is deeply in terested, or even directly mixed up. The bias as to the merits of this or that local scheme is not unfre quently a material portion of the claim of a Member to the support of his constituency. Lord Ebrington we saw, the other day, called to account before the electors of Plymouth, and threatened with an oppo sition, because of his advocacy of o - e particular local project, in preference to its rival. His Lord ship's "influence" had been used in favour of the scheme less popular with his constituents ; and how used ? This is one of the mysterious processes which the public want to have explained and got rid of. There is no such thing can enter into the decision of a question tried by any of the ordinary constitutional tribunals of the land. What are the duties upon which provisional committee-men, lawyers, and secretaries, ordinarily employ themselves up to the moment of presenting their schemes before a committee? In securing this mysterious "influence " of noble Lords and honourable Members. We hear of Comp nies who have strong Parliamentary influences—who can pass any kind of project, to the preference of rival schemes, however excellent, if brought forward by r parties who cannot hobnob with this Peer or that Member, are unknown at Brookes's or the Reform Club, and cannot chat familiarly with half the Mem bers they meet in the lobby of the House. Of course we do not impute any malvetsation of their important offices to the Members of the Legis lature, or any one of them. The character of an English Peer, and of English Gentlemen, places them above suspicion of being knowingly corrupt. Like Caesar's wife, however, they ought to occupy a posi tion above suspicion ; and to enable them to do this they must be relieved from the great responsibility imposed upon them individually as Members of Railway Committees, with powers so large, and so capable of being worked to the advantage of friends or localities, as are wielded by these tribunals. Diffused, as railway property is now, through every part of the kingdom—held as it is by the nobleman, the merchant, the trader, and the smallest shop keeper—there are few men of the class from which our Legislators are chosen who have not either a direct or a collateral interest in some line, which may be presumed, unconsciously to themselves, no doubt, to bias their views with respect to the relative merits of co-operating or of rival lines. To extricate indi vidual members from this, their unfair position, and the difficulty into which it brings them, we should suggest the appointment of some capable and inde pendent Tribunal, over whose decisions, however, both Houses, in their collective capacity, might have an over-riding power. PRINCE ALBERT'S VISIT—_THE mAxon. AND THE TWO Rom AN CNTrtOLIC B, SHOPS. It is really irksome to have contiouilly imposed on us the tisk of correcting the errors or the inventions of our contemporaries. We have in another column expressed our opinion of the mode in which his worship the Mayor has been recently attacked by the Whig-Radical press, with respect to his alleged conduct in insisting upon the right to invite the Rev. Hugh M'Neile to the forth-corn ing banquet at the Town Hail. Whilst writing the arti cle in question we were not informed of the facts of the case; but presumed upon the Mayor's character as a high-minded gentleman that the correct truth had not beef conveyed to our contemporaries. We have since been more fully informed, and proceed to give the genu ine version of the matter. A list of names of parties thought most eligible for in vitation was placed before the committee assembled, in strict privacy and confidence, to make a selection. Of course, tone of these gentlemen anticipated that their re marks, upon the fitness of this or that individual, would be conveyed to the public through the press. After going through a portion of the list, including the two rectors, the Rev. Mr. Bold and others, the committee came to the name of the Rev. Hugh M'Neile. The M iyor did not at all, as represented, use anything like dictation as to the rev. gentleman. He stated that he did not see how his name could be omitted after his services to the charity, and left the matter entirely in the hands of the committee by whom his invitation was unani mously agreed upon. A number of the names were subsequently gone through, after which Mr. Rathbone astonished the majority of the committee by proposing that the two Roman Catholic Bishops of the district should be invited. The attempt to fasten on the Mayor alone the disinclination to invite these gentlemen, is shamefully untrue. A large majority of the committee ot , jected to their invitation as Bishops; and his Worship frequently remarked, that be wished anything which fell from him to be viewed only as a suggestion, as he was desirous of merely carrying out the wishes of the com mittee. Mr. Rathbone was reminded that many members of the Roman Catholic church were already invited, in cluding Mr. Weld, Mr. Blundell, Mr. Chaloner, and others. Subsequently Mr. Rathbone attempted to mo dify his motion, by proposing their invitation as Doctors ; but, eventually, finding himself in so small a minority upon the point, he withdrew his motion. Mr. Earle's proposal of Dr. Raffles was dismissed, without anything like the feeling alleged being displayed by the Mayor, who remarked that he had entertained the rev. doctor at his own table, and was always ready to receive him there. The rest of the statements promulgated with respect to this matter are mere abvurdities, got up app tre , tly by some ingenious and inventive brother of the quill. who, having perhaps got a wind of what had occurred, was good enough to supply the imaginative portion. One part of these statements, as to the immense number of returned cards and refusals to dine with the Mayor, which are said to be lying on his worship's table, is downright absurd. The invitations are nut yet issued The cards, we believe, are not yet printed Really, our contemporaries ought no toldegrade ch bear so Much the take was VISIT OF PRINCE ALT3ERT-ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE COMPANY AT THE ALBERT DOCK WAREHOUSES. The preparations for the opening of this dock, and its magnificer,t warehouses, are now in progress ; and when completed, will be in every way worthy of the occasion, and present to his Royal Highness and suite, and to the company who may be favored with admittance within the walls of the Duck, one of the finest spectacles ever wit nessed in this or any other town. In describing the works going on, we shall commence with the room set apart for the dejeuner. . . . situated at the south-east corner of the wareh is 99 feet long by 88 feet. wide. To the eye it appears a perfect square en n►assy bles run down fr - om end with am room between each r the ingress ant egress of the guests, and the passing to and fro of the wa:ters, &c. At the head of the room, which is the south end, is a table raised considerably higher than the rest, designed for the accommodation of Prince Albert, with his suite and the officials and most distinguished guests. At the north end are three short tables, and the sides are to be filled up with seats for those of the company for whom the tables do not afford sufficient room. It was originally suggested that a thousand persons might be ac commodated to partake of the refreshm , -nts standing. It has been considered better, however, that each party shall be provided with seats, which will reduce the accommoda tion to that for about 600 at the tables and 120 at the side The entertainment will be entirely cold, and will consist o' fruits of the most recherche kinds, pates, ice creams. ices. &c., provided with his usual excellent taste and liberality by Mr. Lynn, of the Waterloo Hotel. The wines, provided by the same gentleman, we need not say will be the best of their kind. For the proper storing and arrangement of these a most convenient apartment has been fitted up adjoining the banquetting-room. We have already given the dimensions of this apart ment ; and must bestow upon its decorations, &c., a few words of description. Bearing in mind its character as a warehouse, designed solely fur the stowage of mer chandize, &c., it is one of the finest, for the purpose of any entertainment, to be found in the kingdom. To be perfectly fire-proof- and there is not a room in the whole of these spacious erections in which as much timber is used as would make a box of lucifers—it is built with brick arches running in compartments lengthwise from north to south, each compartment tied with an iron rod, and the bearings supported with iron beams. The latter are painted for the occasion a stone-colour, with the capitols picked out in. gilt. The brick arch-work is white, and the iron ties painted scarlet. The side-walls are being draped in flutings of alternate blue, white, and pink. The floor is to be covered with crimson cloth, as is the temporary staircase by which the Royal Guest and his suite will ascend to the chamber. The guests are to enter the room by the middle door, at the north end, and will enter the building through the granite-pillared gate at the south end, near King's Dock. The Prince will enter the room by a private staircase, as we have already stated, after landing from his yacht at the south-east corner of the dock. The accommodation for parties to witness the opening of the dock by the Prince and his suite in the Fairy, royal yacht, reflects the highest credit upon the liherality of the chairman and the members of the Duck Committee. The sheds of the whole of the stately pile of warehouses on the south and west of the dock are being fitted up with stages in an amphitheatrical form, eight stages in height, and each state a yard in breadth. These are strong as the warehouses themselves, each stage being floored by timber six inches in thickness, and thoroughly rested and secured. One entrance is at the east corner of the south end ; another at the south end accommodates as well a part of the west side. There is also an en trance on the west side and another at the north end of the same side. To prevent confusion, the tickets for each entrance, which we understand are the most finished works of art, as are those for the dejeuner, will be issued in distinguishing colours. The seats for the dejeuner will be numbered to correspond with each ticket. The plat forms round the dock, it is computed, will accommodate easily about ten thousand persons, as may be conceived when we state that the length of the south side of the dock is about 150 yards ; that of the west side about 200 yards ; and that there are eight platforms in each, thosei platforms being a yard in width. In all, this will make about a mile and a half of yard deep lineal standing space. When the Fairy enters the dock by the gut at the north western end, the spectacle presented by this magnificent mass of the elite of our fellow townsmen and towns women will be a sight such as few princes or kings can boast of in their dominions. Tne yacht will, on entering, proceed at half-speed along the quays thus lined with stectators, and enter the breakfast-room at the south-east corner. We presume his Royal Highness, after the entertain ment, will be taken over the portion that is completed of the warehouses themselves. Anything more calculated to convey to his Royal Highness a sense of the energy of h's adopted fellow countrymen, and of the vast resources of this great port, we can scarcely conceive than an in spection of these noble edifices. . _ _ PEEPARATIINS AT THE SAILORS' HOME.—A rapid progress is being made with the preparations of laying the foundation stone for this building. The sides of the ex cavation are being surrounded with galleries, affording an excellent view of the proceedings. The bottom will be appropriated for the reception of the members of the Council and the Dock Committee, the Sailors' Home Committee, the Blue Coat Boys, the Freemasons and Odd Fellows, the nobility and gentry, and the borough magis trates. The procession on the occasion will consist of about 6,000 perbotis, of whom 1,000 will be Freemasons, and 1,000 Oddfellows. The boys of the Blue Coat Hospital will head the procession. Tne Freemasons will follow. Then will come the Corporation, and, immediately after, the Prince, in the state-carriage, drawn by six horses from the Royal Mews. The shipping trades and the Oddfellows will bring up the rear. Some dissatisfaction, we under stand, is felt by the Oddfellows in consequence of being informed that their number must not exceed 1,000, which number they have to select from their entire body. all of whom are naturally anxious to walk ; but it should be recollected, that 1,000 men make a very formidable dis play, and that an intgroui,,able procession, without any variety, would he anything but pleasing to the spectator. The Duke of Leinster, Grand Master of the Irish Free masons, will, it is exp , cted, be also present ; and Lord CoMbermere, Earl Ellesmere, and Earl Zetland are con fidently looked for to head their loyal body the English Freemasons, who are to make one of the most magnificent demonstrations ever witnessed in this or any other town. The following route of the procession was agreed upon at a meeting of the Committee yesterday, and our readers may depend on its accuracy, as we publish it on au thority:—To start from the Judges' lodgings, nrocetd along St. Anne street and the line of streets to Mount pleasant; up Mount-pleasant to Abercromby-square ; along the west side of that square and Bedford-street; down Falkner-street to Catherine-street; down Sandon terrace to Rodney-street; down Leese street, Bold street, Church-street, Lord-street, and South John-street, to the site of the Sailor's H ome. The silver trowel with which his Royal Highness will bed the foundation stone of the sailors' Home will be massive and of elegant design. We have seen at the establishment of IVI r. Dismore, who will manufacture it, a beautiful drawing of the town of Liverpool, with its noble river, shipping, &c., as seen from the Cheshire side, by our townsman, Mr. John M `Gahey ; and from this the back of the trowel is to be engraved. The buildings, ships, and other obj cts are finely and minutely delineated ; and amongst the vessels seen near the Lancashire side the artist has introduced a beautiful and necessarily miniature portrait of the royal yacht Fairy, as she will appear when conveying his Royal Highness and suite along the river to view the docks, &c. This is reduced from a fine coloured drawing of the Fairy, taken for the porpo%e, and which we have also seen at M r. Li,rnore's. The Fairy is a three-masted screw schooner, a regular clipper in ap pearance, her hull being long and sharp, and her masts having a great rake. She is painted in gunports, and is otherwise so handsome and unique that she will (with her pendant and the royal standard flying) be readily known as soon as seen on the bosom of old Mersey. THE 'FIREWORKS. Mr. Atkins, of the Zoological Gardens, has received orders from the authorities to give a magnificent display of fireworks on the night of - the banquet, for which the site selected is the open fields be tween Berkeley -street and the Prince's-park. Permission has been given by the Earl of Sefton, the owner of the grounds ;and from the celebrity of Mr. Atkins in the pyrotechnic art, a large fund of delight may be anticipated he spectators July 14, ISIO.

July HI — roe most tearful mining calamity ever known in this county occurred yesterday afternoon in East Wheal Ross lead mine, in the parish of Newlyn, eight miles from this place. A thunder storm of unprecedented violence, at tended with a flood which resembled rather the bursting of a waterspout than the heaviest rain, broke over the , n-ighbourhood. The torrents pouring from Newlyn Downs collected towards the valley where the mine is si tuated, and rushing in torrents down the shaft quickly filled every level. Some of the people, who were alarmed and escaped, but we believe they were very few. Others at the first flaw of water, made their w nz a tle y ards to toof th ite e laier s sn u e r t f h aC a s t reached so near as to be seen from the surface, but, ex hausted by their previous exertions to hasten up the lad ders, were beaten down by the torrent and perished.

The times certainly demand a very diffe•ent spirit, and we are sanguine enough to believe that they will meet with such a one.

Four churches, we know, are not to be built without cost, especially when the very prosperity of wn, which is rendering them so needful, is in -rearing• so considerably the price both of land and the to labour. ißut if twenty thousand pounds are needed for the aster may be sown, with a professing Conservative looking on approvingly, and ready, at the proper moment, to step in and consummate the ruin. The history of past inroads upon the constitution is in s! ructive as to the duty of loyal British men. Whig radical tampering with our institutions, and contem porary mismanagement of the financial affairs of the kingdom, have, in every successive advent of that party to poxirer, paved the way to large en croachments upon the integrity of the former, and for the admission to office of a subtle and plausible minister, armed with powers dangerous to the liber ties of the-people. Let us ask what circumstance it was which enabled Sir Robert Peel to betray the confidence of those who placed him in office, avow edly for the purpose of resisting the very measures which he has just carried. It was his 'overwhelm ing majority in Parliament, and the impression so generally entertained; that no other statesman pos sessed the ability to guide us out of the difficulties, into which the partial adoption of. Whig-radical prin ciples, and the incapacity of that party to administer the financial affairs of the country, had hrou4t us The bulk of the Conservative portion of his sup ers voted for his corn importation bill, to preserve such a minister in power. The nation had allowed itself to be pushed to the brink of a precipice ; and he alone was looked upon as the man who could carry us over; and if we fall asleep now—if we rest confident that no mischief is being done to our in stitutions, because we see a Conservative party ap parently controlling a weak and incapable adminis tration—the time will come again when—our affairs in utter disorder, the public mind exasperated, no sound constitutional leader to fall hack upon, and no strong constitutional power organised —we shall have to call in the aid of some talented worshipper of expediency, to patch up our financial prosperity, and to appease disorder and discontent amongst the people, by further inroads upon tho sources of the country's greatness and happiness. appearance of being intended to persecute a gentleman whose chief offence is that he is opposed to them in poli tics. Surely, if even his worship were inclined to indulge his political feelings in the administration of the hospitalities of the Town-hall. or in the performance of his public duties, the Whig- Rad.cal party are not the men we have had in this town have not shown such very sensitive nicety upon these points. At the present moment we have before us an address of congratulation, issued by the Whig-liadical Mayor of Manchester to the people of England, upon the successful carrying of the late free trade measures. Doubtless, were any one of the same clique Mayor of Liverpool just now, we should have little of delicacy used in following the same, or even a more ob jectionable course._ , VISITORS AT CROXTETR.—The following noblemen and gentlemen are at present staying at Crosteth, and will remain during the week :—Hon. Mr. Balfo ur , H on . M r. Forester, Mr. Glynn, Sir W. W. Wynn, Piinee George of Cambridge. Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Hornby, Duke and Duchess of Montrose, Capt. Rouse, Earl and Countess Eglington, Hon.

His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge will honour the Earl of Sefton with a visit at Croxteth this weak. His Royal Highness will arrive, we believe, on Friday. ELECTION OF COMMISSIONERS OF WALLASEY...— The promoters of the Wallasey Improvement Act have taken a very unusual and, as it appears to us, a very f a i r and impartial course, in omitting from such act any a a _ mination of the existing commissioners to act under it, leaving them to be elected by the ratepayers. The follow ing gentlemen therefore retire, as they would have done had no improvement act been past—viz., Mr. T. B. Hughes, Mr. J. North, Mr. K. Edwards, Mr. Edwards, Mr. H. Meadows, Mr. J. Mawdsley, Mr. Thomas Dean and Mr. J. Bewley. The promoters, nevertheless, think it their duty to recommend a list, of which the following are the names :—Messrs. J. D. Maddock, Miles Barton, Thomas Dean, Thomas Lester, Liscard ; and Messrs. John Mawdsley. Seaccmbe; Henry M elt _ dows, Poulton ; and Evan Jones, Liscard. The re. spectability of these gentlemen will ensure them, w e should suppose, the support of the ratepayers. The elec. tion is to be held on Thursday next, at the Queen's Aram Hotel, Liscard him, which he received with much good-humour and THE WOOLLEN CLOTHS OF YORKSHIRE.—The letter of Mr. William Beckett, M.P., addressed to the mer chants and manufacturers of the borough of Leeds, has excited considerable interest on the subjec's principally referred to by the hon. gentleman—viz., the comparative excellence of English and foreign woollen cloths, and the prospects of the manufacturers of that description of goods in the West-Riding of York-hire. It is felt in many quarters that this branch of manufacture is in far from a satisfactory state, and that vigorous efforts should be made by all parties concerned, with a view to reeain our lost pre-eminence in the markets of the world. There is a strong impression that British woollen cloths cannot even retain their present position compared with those of the F ench and Belgians, without such efforts being made. —Leeds Mercury. MR. RIPI EY AND THE LIVERPOOL COMMITTEE FOR THE REGISTRY OF SHIPPING.—A lengthy correspon dence has just been published, which has tiken place be tween the secretary of the Liverpool committee for the registry of shipoing and Mr. Ripley, upon the subject of an alleged imputation brought by the latter gentleman a instthe committee, of unfair preference in the classifi cation of a vessel—the Anne Armstrong—belonging to one of their own body. The committee, through their secre tary, required from Mr. Ripley that he should inspect the renoct of the survey of the vessel, in order to enable that gentleman to retract his imputation, if found unjust. Mr, Ripley's reply was in the form of a demand to know the precise language used, the names of the parties who had reported the conversation, and when it had occurred. The secretary to the committee then specified the par ticular nature of the charge; that it had been publicly made in tne Underwriters' Rooms, was talked of on 'Change, and been published in the London and the local otpers. M . Ripley still declined to take any steps, witho it the names of the committee's informants being given ; and, after a further exchange of letters, with the same result, the I llowing unanimous resolution of the comtn'ttee was er nveyed to Mr. Ripley: — That, as Mr. Ripley, in his correspondence, conti nues to evade a denial of the unwarrantable charge which has been referred to, the vindication of the conduct of the committee will be sufficiently attained by publishing the correspondence, in order that the public may form their own conclusions as t 9 the entire groundlessness of the charge." PARATIONS BY THE YACHT CLUB The Royal Mer-ey Yacht Club purpose to do as much honour to the royal visitor as time and circumstances will permit, and the Dock Committee will, we learn, afford them every possible encouragement. A display, in the shape of a sailing match, or showing off in the river, would be precarious, and the Prince, from the ne cessary rapidity of his movements. might be unable to witness it. It is therefore contemplated—though no pre cise arrangement is yet determined upon, that the yachts will congregate on the spacious half-tide basin north of the Albert Dock, all decorated with fLigs, with their spars manned by their crews in similar nautical attire, and their owners, and all their friends, (of the club) •n board of them in their full uniform. After the Royal Yacht has entered the dock, it is intended that the whole of the yatchts, thus appointed, shall be towed into the Albert Dock by a small steamer, or steamers, and take their places, in lines, from north to south, or p.trhaps in minia ture representation of two fleets in order of battle. Should this be accomplished, (and we see nothing to pre vent it,) the sight, conjoined with the presence on the same expanse of water with the Royal Yacht, will present a beautiful appearance, and no doubt add to the gratifica tion of the numerous ladies and others who will on that day throng the extensive galleries, or platforms, erected on the south and west sides of the dock, who will obtain an uninterrupted view of the whole fleet. • Tux SUGAR DUTIES —We learn from a sure source that the min.sterial plan is —first, to impose immediately a uniform duty of 235. 4d. on all foreign sugars of free labour or slave labour origin for three years; second, after the lapse of three years the differential duty in favour of British sugars to be eliminated in the course of three years by a regularly decreasing scale. This, with the abo lition of the restrictions on the free use of sugar and mo lasses in this country, and the equalisation of the duties on rum and British spirits, will do.—Colonial Gazette. FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.—On Thursday a one months a la bourer on the Birmingha m and Derby Railway, whilst crossing the line, was run over by an engine coming up whilst see r unexpectedly.
