TIER MAINE LIQUOR LAW, PUBLIC RECEPTION TO _THE HON. NEAL DOW. Last evening, a public meetin g o f th e friends and sup porters of the Temperance Alliance, with others who take an interest in those and similar principles, was held at the Concert Hall, for the purpose of giving a public reception to that gentleman, as' the fo un d er of the Maine Liquor L aw aii the 'United State's; inn also, for the purpose of hearing other eminent and popular lecturers expound their views on the subject, and also for agitating the queittion in this town. As the object of the meeting hid been exten sively placarded throughout the town, there was, a long time before the hour appointed for commencing the business, a large gathering assembled in the- body of the hall. The galleries were, however, not so fully occupied. In the absence of Mr. L. Heyworth, from indisposition, the X- v. R. S. Steinfall, the chairman, expressed his reg ret at having t o commence t h e b us i ness with an apology, but congratulated the town at having such a large assembly. He then went on to say that as there were no doubt a a great number in that hall who were not members of the alliance, but they were not pledged to anything beyond giving an attention to the arguments that would be brought forward, and announced that there would be papers for those who wished to joie the cause , distributed about the meeting, and if th ey were signed they could be left, at the door, and the collectors would afterwards call upon them for contributienn He concluded by saying that Dr. Lee's work would be distributed about the room, for sale, to those who might be studious. The SECRETARY then read letters from the Rev. Mr. Birrill and Major Greig, apologising for rot being present. The Rev. THOMAS nwALLow was next called upon to move the first resolution, and, in doing so, sail that , he was not so sarguine as many were es to the result to, be obtained in Engl an d ; b ut if t h ey cou ld not get the whole of that for which they wished, let them get ss much as t h ey cou ld . He then • moved : That this meeting,', deeply impressed with the varied and manifold evils unavoidably atieidant upon the liquor traffic, that fruitful source of pauperism, crime, disease, and, death ; and believing that no measure short of the total prohibition of the traffic can effectantly'eove the corn- Munity from the eff"cts which that traffic .inevitably pro duces, gives to the II mouralne Neal Door,-of Portland, the originator of the' Maine Law, its most cordial welcome a ;nd sincerely believes that his visit to the land of their common ancestry will not only be a source of pleasure and advan tage to laicaself, but also the means of bringing nearer to a successful issue the movement in behalf of the suppression of the liquor traffic, a movement with which the name of the Hen. Neal Dow is gloriously and inseparably connected." Mr. CsrrEer seconded the adoption of the resolution. Ile' said he had for a long time seen the necessity of the adop tion of the suppression of intoxicating liquors, particularly When he looked in at the doors of the gin palaces, and saw the misery that there existed, and he had, therefore, for a V ery his long time i , not permitted a d rop of that filthy stuff to enter dwellng. He was aware that the advocates of the Main Liquor Law went a long way —but it did not go too far. He did not expect that they would get it so soon as some, but they must expect it before it would come ; and then he had no doubt but that it would come. There was one thing which was worthy of consideration, and that was, that as they came there to dog od as well as to be gratified ; he would ask them, would it not be as well if they were each to give up their glass a-day for the good of the thousands of their fellow creatures. That was a point that was well worth consideration, and he trusted that they would each and all think well of it. He would not detain them with any further remarks, as he knew they were most anxious to hear Mr. Dow. (Applause.) The motion was then put from the chair and unanimously adopted. The Hon. NEAL Dow then came forward, and was greeted with prolonged applause. He commenced by sayin g that .he was much laboured for some time ; but he came to talk to them about what concerned them—pro- teetion to themselves, their children, and the country, from the dreadful evils of intemperance and traffic in intoxicating drinks, Ile took a vi ew o f t h e • t emperance cause in A merica for the last 40 years, and said the movement in this country should be sanctioned by the educated portion and the religious portion of the people also. He called on the clergy, by their powerful influence, to support the movement because it was by such influence the move- inent must succeed. (Hear, hear.) He - alluded to the ! fact that the clergy did not go to theatres, balls, or circuses, tot from any fear of personal contamination, but because (Rsuch Places endangered the eternal welfare of the people. ear, hear.) And yet they did not do the same in regard to the liquor traffic, which, he was sorry to say, they , rather supported than otherwise, He said the influence of the clergy was potential, but they would not give up the Wine glass; but this shouli be, and would be changed, (Lboth for the temporal and eternal welfare' of the people. oud cheers.) He gave an account of a meeting in his native city, when the temperance cause was what he called law, and gave an account cf two speeches, one 1 made by an eminent progressionist, and the other by a conservative, and showed how the proere.sive man was cheered and the other not. He illustrated this by the story of oxen going down a hill holding back, but whet was wanted was all up-hill work. like the oxen going up with their lead. (Cheers.) He regretted to say that the educated classes did not sanction the movement. In regard to the slave trade, he showed how the proposition for the abolition of that trade was received in Liverpool, and then went on to the origin of r ailways, a n d t h e opposition given to their introduction at first, and 'when a Committee of the House of Commons declared that they would have rejected ' the bill, if the engineer had said that a train could travel more than twelve miles an hour. (Hear, hear.) Re went on to the Atlantic Steam Navigation, which was Pronounced to be impossible, and one man promised to eat the first steam-boat that would cross the Atlantic. (Loud cheers and laughter.) There was nothing impossible, and he contended that in the end the movement must succeed. Some people thought there was no law to prevent English men from doing what they liked— (hear, hear)—but there I Was no Country in the world where laws were made to prevent the people from doing what they liked more than in England. People could not put two horses to hackney carriages except they paid tax for them ; they could not put a footman behind their carriages without paying a tax for him. (Hear, hear,) And yet it was said there was no law in England to prevent people from doing what they liked. (Hear, hear.) Someime ago there was a law that took up people and put them on 'boaad ships, (the pressing system) and their families would not hear from them for years, and then would be sent in his Maj- , sty's service up the Mediterranean. (Hear, 'hear.) That and other old systems had passed a.vay, and so would all the opposition offered to the present movement. (Hear, haar.) The temperance reform has been only for the last forty years discussed amongst the people as a moral question, but now it was one of political importance and a political question, because it was for the benefit of the whole of Mankind. It was so in America—it was so here; and be could say that it was a question of more importance than any other political question. And why ? B cause it referred to th e honour and the gl ory o f this country; and that was of more vital importanc e to the people and the nation. He would say, that for every shilling that' was spent in intoxicating drink, another eshTl i l fht say two shilli ngs —was thrown away Or he was enough for hi s purpose. At the I.a.te electoinons, a long discussion ensued on the saving of six milliens of g but the question they were then disenenng involved mone y,n expenditure of £120,000,000 annually. Was net that worth consideration ? Again, the physical powers of th people Were of some consideration, and it was found hat e 60,000 lives were yearly lost from drunkenness and the traffic in intoxicating drinks. Those men had wives, and mothers; • and children, who were living in degradation and misery. Was it nothing, then, to save £120,000,000 of money an d 11 2,000 liv es ? (Cheers.) But why wos it not done ? It CI, said it was impossible. But it was not so. (Hear, ea r.) Let them l oo k • a t the credit side of the accounts, and what was the gain by the use of li ', and he would say that there was not one advantage to be gained by it. (Cheers.) Now the time W as come when h e people would be protected from the use O f it. He denied that it interfered with the liberty of the subject more in England than it did in his country. He s aid it would and must come. The prisons and the jails were the results of the grog !hops—do away With them, and the jails and prisons would Moulder and decay, the same as the old abbeys and mansions, and would only be the resort of jackdaws and owls. (Laughter.) The grog shops were licensed to make drunkards, and drunkards it was that filled the jails— (cheers) —and there they to be main tained at the cost of the people, and merely for the pur pose of putting t hew landlady's. Hen desc ribed the daily scenes in a pollee court, where the drunkard was placed in the dock, and the landlady was in the witness -box in but his State the positions were altered, dock, and the dru n k ards in the landl a dy was in the the way it should be.

The goals ware built for the drunkard., but if there were no drunkards there need net he any goals. (Cheers.) He advised them, for th e h onour of theirteoun Ir3nw to alter the same, and to try the same course', He advised that all who sold intoxicating drinks shoield Punished, and not the man who drank it. Let them try that remedy, and then if it failed, let them try something else ' (Cheers.) tended to b The government licensin g i yatem only and body-ofring rain, degradations and to destroy the soul all, her Majes's bjects.

NORTHERN TIMES.-LTVERPOOL I THURSDAY, JULY 9 ; 1857. sent day, particularly, as this agitation was going on. The magistrates wou'd Book get enlightened on the subject, and then the magistrates' - would refuse to grant the licenses, and then 'they would have his Maine Liquor Law. (Cheers.) That was the way it was done in his city, and that was the way it could be done here. A Voice: What about the repealing men ? Mr. Dow : After the enactment of the Almshouses, the Houses of Correction, and the Bridewell, which had been full, became almost unoccupied. He then described the great good that had. been derived from the Maine Law. But that law was repealed, and it was said it had been a failure ; bat it had been done by an opposing politic tl party ; and at the last election the whole of that party had been sent out of the stag, and then they.had the Maine Lew again. (Cheers.) He would advise the Englishmen to do the same and they would add to their own happiness and honour. (Cheers:) The Hon. Mr. Dow concluded his 'address by eicquently calling upon the people of EnZ land to follow the example of the people of b's c)on , ry, and adopt the same system. Let them only inscribe the same motto on their own banner, and the same result would follow, and prosperity and happiness would attend them. He resumed his seat amidst the greatest applause, the cheering being °Len repeated. The CIILIRMAY then called on the Hon. Ja3ge Marshall to address the meeting. He regretted that he could not make a short speech, but he would try to d so. (Hear, and laught'r.) He then read the second resolution :—" That this meeting having heard the statement now made, and b ing otherwise informed of the irjtirions tendencies of the liquor traffic upon public morality, and national prosperity, pledge itself to support by all prac tical means the measures of the United Kngdom Alliance for the Soppres . ..- sine of the Liquor Traffic " He dwelt on the evils arising from the liquor traffic, and said it. must be put down by a prohibitory law. (Cheers.) He then alluded to the trial of Miss Smith ; and some statistics in regard to drunkenness; and the accident at Shrewsbury, where, he said, ten or eleven persons were drowned in consequence of drunkenness. In every paper that he took no, he found deaths from drunkenness. In London he was disgusted to see the numbers of well dressed men and women who frequented the grog shops, and he actually saw children of five and'six years old getting plenty of drink from the people at the counter. He described some grog-sheps in Liverpool, and sai 1 near one of these was a pawnbroker, named Honker, who took in the people and gave them money on their clothes, to go and spend it in the grog-shops. He went on to show that publicans, who kept open homes at illegal hours, were only fined 55., whilst: people who kept, betting-houses were fined £25. Tie declared, as a lawyer, that the licensing system was contrary to law, to equity and justice, and was like the Indian's old gun, wanted a new lock, stock,- and barrel. (Cheers.) He next went on to the question of education, and spoke of the speech delivered on that point by the Prince Consort; but he contended that his Royal Highness was not well informed on the subject. as the great cause of the lack of instruction was the liquor traffic. This should be known and remedied in the high quarters and by the legislature. He attended at some of the meetings of the Rev. H. S. Brown, but said he did not. see a dezen of people there to whom his observations were applicable —no Stiggins and his wife ever met there, they were at the grog shops. From this he 'drew the conclusion that liquor traffic should be put. down by law, the same as it was put down in America. He read a letter from New Brunswick in regard to the law there, and said the Governor was against the law there, but he would be recalled and the law would be successfully carried out there. (Loud cheers.) Dr. LEE, author of the Alliance Pr;ze Essay, then came forward to address the meeting, and was warmly received. He then referred to the statements that had been made in the papers of Liverpool, as to what Mr. Gough and Mr. Barker had said on the subject, and denied the truthful ness of either, as they were thousands of miles from that place, He denied that the prohibition cause, or the Maine Liquor Law, was in a depressed state on the other side of the water. He then ably advocate& the cause of the alliance, and concluded amidst great applause. The resolution having, been unanimously carried, a vote of thanks oncluded the meeting: Com merttai Intelltgenre. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET.-JULY 8.

LIVERPOOL, Wednesday Evening. There was a better demand for Cotton today, and prices of all descriptions were extreme. The sales are estimated at 15,000 bales, of which speculatcrs and exporters took 4,000. Messrs. Littledale, in their circular issued to-clay, remark that.— Last year our stocks were increasing until the middle of August, when we held 813,000 bales of all kinds, while this year they reached the highest figures at the end of May, and are now about 620,000 bales, decreasing every week about 21,000 bales. Though short time has been resorted to in some districts, the consumption of Cotton . has little diminished, and the difference is more than made up by increasing export, consequently the outgoings are larger now than last year. There are afloat at the present time about 30,000 bales of American Cotton against 150,000 bales. The'gro wing crop is generally reported about three weeks backward, and though the weather and the prospects had improved, it was not expected to be either an early or a large crop. The Liverpool Share Market keeps dull, but prices to-day were pretty well supported. The following were the day's transactions :—East Lan eashire, 97 ; do. 91. shares, 4 p; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 101 ; London and North Western, 1034, g, ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, 444, ; - North Eastern and Berwick, 234; Dovers, 224; Warrington and Stockport, 6 ; Dutch Rhenish, 38d ; Grand Trunk of Canada, 144; Bank of Liverpool,• 244; North and South Wales, 74 ; Royal Bank, 405.

The Market for the public funds and securities was very firin to-day. Yet the transactions were on a limited scale. Consols for Money closed at . 924 to 023, and for the account at 924 to 924 ; and after official hours the latter figures were current for both Money and account. Exchequer Bills closed at 3 dis. to 2 pm., and New Three Per Cents, at 924 to 924. In the London Railway Share Market there has been a moderate business to-day, at about steady prices. Thefollowing were the closing quotations Atnbergate, Nottingham, and East Junction, 5i ; Caledonian, 75k, 751; Edinburgh and Glas , gow, 62, 64 ; Eastern Counties, llt, 11 ; East Lancashire. 971, 9S ; Great Northern, 991; Ditto A, 90, 91 ; Great Western, 641 65 ; Lan eahire and Yorkshire, 1001, 101 ; Leeds Northern, 45k, 451; London and North Western, 1031 1031 ; London and South Western,loll,lo2 ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, 44. 45; Midland Stock, 834, 831; North British, 43t, 441; South Eastern and Dover, 741„ 75 ; York, Newcastle, and Berwick, 92, 93 ; York and North Midland, 711. 72. The - transactions after official hours were at the following quotations :—Caledonian 751, 751; Eastern Counties 111 118;• East Lancashire 971, 981 ; Great Northern 99k; Ditto A9O ; Great Western 645, 64-2. ; London and North Western 1035-, 1031 ; London and South Western looff, 101; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire 44 45 ; Midland Stock 83a, 835; North Bitish 431, 421 ; South Eastern and Dover 741, 75 ; York, New castle, and Berwick 92, 93 ; York and North Midland 711, 72. The first half of the year has, says Messrs. Littledale's East India Circular, exhibited great steadiness in busi ness, and a high range of prices. M oney has maintained a higher rate than previously known in peace, and in the face brit nearly all our leading products have been high, and what is even still more romarkable, our Exports have exceeded those of any previous year, being for the five months 50,195,5411., against 43,307,329. for the same period_ last year. These striking features, so at variance with any former precedent—when Money has been held to rule everything else, and when it was dear, produce must be cheap, and Exports fall off—has led to the very generally received opinion that the day of low prices is passed, that the influence of the gold discoveries has caused this striking change,—doubtless it has done so to some extent, but, the lavish expenditure of two hundred millions sterling in the two years of war, has done much more, and we do not by any means anticipate that the present range of prices will be continuous, nor do we see any just grounds for supposing that Money is not to fall below 5 per cent., or that Produce may not again decline to the ordinary average of prices after a year or two of godd supplies, though we trust never to the point of depression which we have before witnessed—ruinous alike to the producer and importer. The position of most articles remains strong, and the deliveries for consump tion satisfactory. The General Produce Markets remain quiet at the advance recently established in the leading articles. All kinds of Congou Tea may be quoted 241 per lb. higher than on this day month. Silk is advancing in price. Sugar is steady, at firm rates. The various Corn Markets throughout the conn tr are hardly so firm, and.to effect sales, prices of bot Wheat and Flour would have to be reduced. The advises from Oporto regarding the prospects of the vintage continue attOgether bad. The traffic of the Great Western Railway Corn po.ny of Canada continue to be closely watched. The return received to-day presents a further diminution of about 1,5001 compared with the cor responding week of last year. Rumours have been circulated of late that the' Peruvian Government intends to double the sink log fund of the foreign debt. Well-informed parties altogether discredit the report. At the annual meeting of the Dutch Rhenish Railway Company, held at Amsterdam on the 30th ult., it was resolved to adjourn the meeting until the 20th inst., when the annual balance-sheet to the 30th April will be submitted The accounts will lie for inspection in Amsterdam and London for one week, commencing with Thursday next. The Master in Chancery charged with the winding up of the General Live Stock Insurance Company, proposes, on the 11th inst., to appoint an official manager. The European and American Steam Sbipping Company invite applications for 7 per cent deben ture bonds. Notice is given to holders of shares in the General Bank of Switzerland, who have not paid the call made on the 2nd of April, that their shares will be publicly sold after the 31st inst. The position of the London Silk Market is thus noticed in the Monthly Circular of Mr. H. W. Eaton : Since the public sales, the result of which was reported to you on the -18th ultimo, the silk market has been com paratively quiet, home buyers having then supplied their immediate wants, and shippers still buying sparingly. In Chinas the few operations have been chiefly in good tsatlees and the lower descriptions of laysaams, at the rates estab lished at the sales. The last acenunts from China report the settlements to have reached 86,000 bales, and the shiAnents 85,000 bales, 72,000 being for Great Britain, and 13,000 for France and elsewhere ; of the former about 66,000 have already arrived. Prices, after some little fluctuation, remained much the same as by the preceding mail. In Bengal silk the sales have been, for the most part, confined to a few runs of the best filature silk, from 31s to 33s 6d, but to no great extent. The last letters from Calcutta quote prices still very high, and with few exceptions as leaving a loss to shippers to this country. In Italian silk there has been little nr nothing doing. A few patent reel Brutias have been sold from 39s to 42s 6d, and two or three parcels of Persians at 16s for fair, and 19s to 18s 6d for best marks. The stook of all qualities of of Persian silk may be estimated at about 1,250 ballots, and of Brutia 29 bales. At the half yearly meeting of the Colonial Bank tc-day, a dividend was made at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, leaving the balance of bad debts reduced to °illy about 10,0001.

Emigrants to the UNITED STATES and CANADA, by ta%ing the Through Tickets of the Grand Trunk Railway Company, are conveyed from their port of landing to their destination in less than ONE QUARTER OF THE Tlbin: taken by Steam Boats, and at about the same rates of fares. Thus a passenger can reach Chicago from gaelecc, a distinct of 1,007 miles, in less than 2e days, whereas by water it is nearly double the distance and requires from 12 to 15 days, with five or six changes of Steam Boats, daring all of which they are exposed to the arts and machinations of designin^ persons, who:e sole means of living is by their plunder. The Steam Boa's, especially when crowded, scarcely afford protection from the weather. Passengers with Through Tickets are allowed the same amount of I tiggage, free, as on board the ship, and it is conveys d from the Ship to the Railway Station without any charge whatever. Tha Agents of the rand Trunk Company will give Mechanics, Artizans, and Labourers, on their arrival, the best information in respect to employment, the places at which it is to be had, and the rates of wages.
