PERCY M. DOVE, Manager. March, 1846, AT a PUBLIC MEETING of the INHABITANTS of the BOROUGH of LIVERPOOL, convened by the Mayor, and holden in the Sessions Rouse, on MONDAY, the 13th day of April, "To take into consideration the Bill of the . . Parliiment," DAVID HODGSON, Esq., Mayor, in the Chair, It was moved by WILLIAM tiaowN, Esq., seconded by GEORGE GREEN, Esq., and resolved unanimously, deficient, and the iiiode of distritution in many rospects faulty and imperfect, more especially in the districtsiuhabited by the working classes ; that no effectui t :s2 .B late-ftifthe better can be expected so long as this prime ne ry of life is made an ar ticle of merchandize, and deal n with a view of profit, and that it is therefore the interest as well as the duty of all classes of the community t ate in securing an abundant supply at the lowest possi c arge. It was moved by Ttios. )3LACKBURN Esq., seconded by Tilos MOORE Esq., and resolved unanimously, That this object is most likely to be attained by concentrat- ing the necessary powers in one public body, appointed by, and responsible to, the inhabitants at large, and who shall under take the duties as a trust for the benefit of the town : that in the opinion of this meeting an ample supply can be obtained if the requisite outlay be made for the purpose, and that no ex penditure of money could be more advantageous, nor event ually, more economical, and that keeping the mains constantly fnn_nrid thProliv hnvinv the. avatar olvuocre at "nrravrtaml is dl . extinguishing fires. It was moved by JAMES RE AY, Esq., seconded by the Rev. WM BEVAN, and resolved unanimously, That for the foregoing reasons (as well as others) the bill now before Parliament, broueht in at the instance of the Liverpool apd Harrington Water Cohipany, is highly objectionable: that the bill is calculated to perpetuate the vicious principle of pri vate competing companies, and while it confers great and op -‘ssivepowers, it gives no guarantee for any increase of the quantity of water, or any improvethent in the mode of its dis tribution this meeting therefore resolve to petition Parliament to refuse its sanction to that bill, and to adopt in its wisdom such measures as may secure the objects pointed out in these resolutions. - ileOl; , eciThat the following Petition be adopted, and signed by the Mayor on behalf of the meeting, and that he be requested to forward the same to the Members for the Borough, for pre sentation. To the Honourable the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in Parliament assembled. The humble Petition of the Inhabitants of the Borough of Li verpool, in the county palatine of Lancaster, in public meet ing assembled, convened by the Worshipful the Mayor of Liverpool. pursuant to a requisition signed by upwards of 700 Inhabitants of the said Borough, Sheweth,—That the Liverpool and Harrington Water Works Company, have recently introduced a Bill into your Honorable House, entituled, "a Bill to amend the provisions of the several acts passed in the 3rd and• Bth years of his Majesty King George the 4th, for supplying with water the town of Liverpool, and Harrington, and Toxteth-park,' in the county of Lan caster." That this Bill appears•to this meeting to be highly objection able in system, inasmuch, as it seeks to perpetuate a principle which has proved to be incompatible with the cheap and ade quate supply of water for the public. That your petitioners are of opinion that their object can be best accomplished by entrusting the supply to a public body, whose duty will be to improve the sanatory condition of the Inhabitants, and reduce their burdens by providing a cheap and continuous supply of pure and wholesome water. Your Petitioners, therefore, humbly pray your Honourable House to reject the Bill, and to refuse its sanction to any mea sure which may not tend to recognize and give effect to the principle which your Petitioners have taken leave to suggest to your Honourable House. And your Petitioners will ever pray. (Signed) DAVID HODGSON, Mayo; . . The AfitiOr hving vacated the chair, It-was moved by J. BRAMLEY MOORE, Esq., seconded by GEO. GREEN, Esq„ and resolved unanimously, That the cordial thankof this Meeting be presented to the Worshipful the Mayor for his kindness in convening and pre siding at this Meeting. NOTICE TO MARINERS .

The importance Of possessing A FINE SET OF TEETH is uni versally acknowledged by all who attach due value to per sonal advantages and the blessings of health. A regular, firm, and pearly row of Teeth ever insures favourable impressions, while the indispensable agencies which they fulfil in respect to the functions of health demand our utmost care and attention in their preservation. Disorders of the Teeth, however slightly regarded, are inevi tably attended with evils which aff the whole system. What ever renders mastication painft r imperfact, not only lessens our relish and enjoyment off , but also prevents that perfect comminution and mixtureArtit with the saliva, which is indis pensable to perfect dig on, and hence orises an endless train of diseases of the stomsith, while at the same time the body is deprived of the wonted nourishment, and the whole system languishes in a state of discomfort and disease. Perhaps am pf all the disagreeable consequences that follow fast the decay of the Teeth—an impure breath must be the most mortifying to its possessor, as it is the most generally offensive in society. The DECAY OF THE TEETH arises from various causes ; but, principally, it may be attributable to early neglect, ill health, oe the use of Tooth Powders containing mineral or other deleterr ous acids, which give a momentary whiteness to the teeth, whili they corrode the enamel I—The extreme prevalence of this last cause is too well known to need comment. To this fact, in deed, is principally to be attributed the long botanical research, which has happily terminated hy the, most felicitous discovery ever given to the world for the PRESERVATION OF THE TEETH, GuMs, and BREATH, viz., ROWLAND'S ODONTO, or PEARL DENTIFRICE. a White Powder for the Teeth, compounded of the choicest and most recherche ingredients of the oriental herbal; the leading requisites of cleanliness and efficacy being present in the highest possible degree. It extirpates all tartar ous adhesions to the Teeth, and insures a pearl-like whiteness to the enamelled surface. Its anti-septic and anti-scorbutic properties exercise a highly-beneflcial and salutary influence, they arrest the further progress of decay of the Teeth, induce a healthy action of the Gums, and cause them to assume the brightiress and colour indicative of perfect soundness • while, by confirming their adhesion to the Teeth, they give unlimited WriigrißZm7l;ilCaliOnittießßEATil also, from the salubri ous and disinfecting qualities of the ODONTO attains a sweet• ness and fragrance truly grateful to its possessor.

The trnde of the town of Bradford at the present time is such that the masters are benefitted by the absence of the men, and under the circumstances we are reminded of the woolcombers' strike in 1825,—it, as the esent, was unfortunate for the working men. At Manchester the strike still continues; the employ ers are gradually fill , ng up their shops with applicants ... . . . who are willing to work. and who sign the declaration. The turn-outs keep up the system of piquoting, and of intercepting the bands whenever it is practicable, and en ticing them away. On Sunday laht tour gentlemen were drowned in the Thames off the new pier at liungerford Bridge, by t he displacing of a plank on which they were walking one lighter to another The subject of Tawell's confession was again before the magistrates, at the Bucks Aess.ions, last week ; a resolu tion was passed, by a maj rity of six to three, that the chaplain, the Rev. Mr. Cox, should produce the docu n3ent. The rev. gentleman, however, said that he bad made a solemn promise to Tawell not to part with the statement, and that no Dower on earth .hntod him to do so. It remains to be seen what furthcr pro ceedings will be taken. On Saturday, Samuel Yarham was executed at Norwich for the murder of Mrs. Candler, at Yarmouth. He did not make any confession but maintained a sullen stlenns. 20,000 people were present. This execution stands in one respect almost unparalleled in English history—that of a man being hanged for a murder atter he had been allowed to give evidence against three supposed accom- plices in the same offenc.. He is also executed upon statements which be himself made whilst under the im pression that, in consequence of giving such evidence, he was free from any ul erior proceedings. CATTLE FROM THE CA E.—A vessel called the Sir Edward Ryan arrived in the St. Katherine's Dicks a few days since from Canton and also the Cape of Good Einpe, at which latter place she had called on her homeward voyage, had on board, in addition to an extensive cargo, comprising every article usually imported from China and the Cspe respectively, 60 bags o; flour, 60 bags of barley, sundry packages of onions, apples, seeds. and flowers, and 80 sheep, the p-oduce of the latter place. The im- . _ . portation of cattle trout the south of Africa is certainly a novelty, and it remains t. , be seen to how great an extent such importations from that distant quarter of the globe may profitably be carded. NEW RAILWAY HOTEL —Much alarm has been cre ated amongst the botel-ke-pers in this town by a rumour that the Grand Juncti a Company are about to tiors as themselves of the whole of th , land from Lime-street to Hotham-street, and from London-road to Lord Nelson street, including the whole of the Blind Asylum, for the purpose of erecting an 11, , t4 upon it fur railway passen gers. It is said that, having eon disappointed in pro curing the site of the I.lington Mat ket, they have now set their eyes on the land in question, and are d,termined to purchase it from the several owners. The hotel keepers view the design as an infringement upon their private rights, and are likely t I call a meeting shortly with the view of memorializing the Council on the sub ject. Tne result of the negotiations of the Cheater and No, lyhead Company with the G. , vernment for the immediate formation of a harbour of refuge and railway pier at the latter port, is that if the company agreed to contribute towards the outlay a sum of £200,009, the works should be carried out to the full extent descr:hed on the plans, and be immediately commenced, and prosecuted with the utmost expedition. The inner pier is to be appropriated to the company's traffic and the use of her IVl,jesty s go vernment, and the present harbour deepened for the pur poses of the railway by giving accommodation to the lar ger class of steam-packets, until such time as the new harbour and pier can he n ade available.

Hamlin, of the Royal Engineers, urged a formal complaint to Mr. Rushton, of what be conceived the derogatory conduct of one of the police of (No. 213.) towards one or his corps of Sappers and Miners. It appeared that the soldier, who appeared in his foraging attire. had on Saturday gone into the court to attest to two recruits ; that he was seen to wear his cap while the business of the court was going on ; that he was requested by two police officers to take it..oft ; that he refused to do so, alleging that he was on military duty ; and that a third (213) took it off, hut without violence. The Captain stated that it was the custom in the army not to doff the hat or cv in any court, or elsewhere, unless the party were taking an oath, or attesting upon it ; and as the soldier had refrained from chastising the offence at the moment, he (the captain) trusted that his forbearance, and . his seeking redress_ by an appeal to the magistrate would not be in vain. The soldier stated the case as re. lated, adding that his orders were not to uncover except in the case mentioned. The officers proved their case in defence, 213 stating that he was ignorant of having acted wrongly. Capt. It amlin said he was anxious to have the point of etiquette decided, and that it was decidedly wrong for a police officer to lay hands upon a soldier who was not an offender against the laws. Mr. Rushton said that in that respect the officer was certainly wrong. His duty was to represent the case to him at the time. _ Had the soldier cornaained to him at the time, he should cer. tainly have advised him to take off his cop, with an inti mation that he (Mr. R.) should consult his commanding officer. Colonel Falkner, on the point. He admitted solders were jealous, and properly so. of their privileges, and as he wished a good understanding to exist between them and the civilians, he should take care to mention the circumstance to t ,e commanding officer of the corps that gulateti by his opinion.
