GENTLEMEN, EAVINCT received a REQUISITION, signed by upwards of 300 of your body, in the unprece dented short space of two days, requesting me to offer myself as a CANDIDATE at the ensuing MUNICIPAL ELECTION, to repre sent your interests in the TOWN COUNCIL, I am induced at once to accede to the request so made, and to place my services at vonr disposal. Never was there a period, in the history of the Borough, when interests so great demanded the careful attention and best judg ment of your Representatives—whether we refer to its rapidly increasing c3mmerce and population, to the increased responsibility d solving upon the Corporate Exchequer, from the purchase of the Birkenhead Docks; or, to the envy which our deserved success appears, unf .rtunately, to have created elsewhere In my o _ pinion, our Town Dues have been most unfairly and unjustly attacked, and the attempt which has been made to confis cate such property, when held by Corporations, and yet to maintain the same title as sacred, when meld by private individuate, appears to me tact only absurd, ha Liquitous As Ratepayers, Gent:ernen, the trade of the port must necessarily demand her first cons .:nations, and, to give every possible facility to our rapidly growing commerce, is obviously our first duty. To this end, 1 consider that unnecessary elongation of our Docks should be avoided, and that the inland concentration of these should be our study. It elected to the Council. I will endeavour to ascertain, with as little delay as possible, what it is that constitutes the Corporate Estate, with a view to its Improved revenue; for I deem it to be a deplorable fact, that no one gentleman in the Council Chamber pos sesses this knowledge; nor does it appear that our princely-paid officials are any better informed upon this subject than are our Councillors and A lcermen themselves, as is proved by the circuits that Mr, Robertson Gladstone moved for this Information han twelve months ago, and It is not yet forthcoming. ;dance, I have been no Inconsiderable Ratepayer in your Ward for nearly a quarter of a century; your Interests and mine, therefore, as Rate payers, mist necessarily be identical. On several occasions you have expressed a wish that I should represent you in the Town P ouncil ; but hitherto I have considered the time that was at my disposal insufficient for the faithful dis charge of duties so onerous and responsible, and have felt con. strained to decline that honour. Now, however, if it is your plea sure to elect me, on the Ist November next, to serve as one of your Representatives, I shall be proud to undertake the duties which the office will impose upon me, and to discharge them to the test of my abi ity.—l am, gentlemen, yours respectfully, JAMES R. JEFFERY. Lodge•lane, October 15, 1858. ENLARGEMENT OF THE NORTHERN TIMES, DOUBLE ITS PRESENT SIZE. The patronage and support hitherto accorded to the NORTHERN DAILY TIMES, has rendered it necessary for the Proprietors - to enter into arrangements for its speedy Permanent Enlarge ment to Double its present size. Until this is effected, Double Numbers will be issued whenever a pressure of news, or an influx of advertisments, shall render it necessary. In making this an nouncement, the Proprietors, grateful for the flat tering encouragement they have alieady received, avaifithemselves of the opportunity to state that they will spare neither pains nor expense to render the NORTHERN DAILY TIMES the most accurate and earliest authority upon all matters of news — Political, General, Monetary, Commercial, and Maritime. The new arrangements, when com pleted, will impose upon the Proprietors the necessity of ceasing to supply extra Slips to Subscribers, but no increase will be made in the rate of subscription, which is now 395. per annum. NORTHERN DAILY TIMES OFFICE, 19, South John Street. (4e kort4tru finteo WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 15, 1856, THE DAY'S NEWS Various matters of local interest have occurred s i n ce the publication of yesterday's NORTHERN TIMES.

But, in doubt she would lose the organ. He handed in a medical endeavouring to do all this , remember that to be cer tificate to that effect. An i mmediate summons was truly useful and successful, nothing bordering upon granted. ~-~-- religious bigotry or fanatical zeal must tarnish your proceedings. The proceedings of the Metropolitan and Pro vincial Law Association were interesting. On the question of legal Education there was a short but spirited discussion. The system of stuffing barris ters and solicitors with Latin and Greek, as a chief qualification for a lawyer, was severely criticised by Mr. Anderton, of London, and even our sensible fellow-townsman, Mr. Ambrose Lace. We do not question the value which a knowledge of the dead languages confers upon those who study them. They contain much true and genuine philosophy, and the drudgery of acquir ing an acquaintance of them certainly sharpens the intellect, and gives increased strength and keenness to the imagination—nothing more. In too many instances they tend to deprave the morals. How often have youths had the springs of virtue tainted by sitting at the amorous foun• tains of Ovid ; and Horace, too, was not the guardian of modesty, whilst many of our standard Greek authors were lax both as to religion or morality. If a knowledge of Ovid and Virgil, of Sallust and of Homer, be requisite, there are abundance of good translations where all can learn the beauties and originalities of these far-famed writers. We hold that to discourse upon the wording of an Act of Parliament, convincing a jury in a case of life and death, seeking a verdict in a civil action, or pleading a case at Common Law, a know ledge of the mother tongue, an aptitude to con strue correctly the members of a sentence, and to be able to take a fair view of text and context, is of far more importance and genuine worth than the strict rendering of any particular classic author. The one is fitness for business—the other needless scholastic ornament, which but too often degene rates to learned buffoonery, or unpardonable pedantry. If a person can go before the In corporated Law Society and give satisfactory evidence that he is intimately acquainted with the civil and criminal jurisprudence of the country, has studied the rules of pleading, and the laws of evidence, although he may not possess the ability to speak in a dead and foreign language, why debar him from exercising the office and the functions of an advocate ? What is true of the Law is, in some respects, also true of the Gospel, yet none ignorant of Latin and Greek are permitted to enter the Church as ministering priests at its altar. It was not required of the illiterate fisher men, who were the first Apostles, to know a variety of languages when they set out to preach - of the world to come. It does not do so now. Still, strange to say, the Church bars its doors against the non-classical aspirant to preach the Gospel. These remarks do not decry the legitimate value and importance of classical learning. They are merely intended to advocate a principle that every man, whether he be classically " educated or not, if possessed of the necessary information which will enable him to exercise the duties of any one of "the three learned professions," he should be admitted " without let or hindrance." The Select Vestry held its usual fortnightly , meeting yesterday, and our report of the proceed ings show that matters of some moment were under MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY EVENING. The demand for Cotton continues steady, although there is not so much activity in the trade. The sales to day are estimated 6,000 to 7,000 bales, of which speculators and exporters took 2,000, business closing rather tamely. The imports are trifling. The present tone of the Liverpool Share Market is quiet. Most parties are engaged in the settle. ment of the account. Little business has been transacted. and prices have fluctuated to some extent. The transactions include Caledonian at 264. Eastern Counties, Bu. East Lancashire, 19, discussion. Mr. Farnall, the Poor Law Inspector, was present, and delivered a somewhat lengthy and important address on the condition of the Union. The statistics in Mr. Farnall's address are well worthy of attentive perusal. After this address that inter minable subject—the education of the Roman Ca tholic children in the Tndustrial Schools, came up for discussion. The supporters of the Roman Catholic persuasion were unable to attain the object they had in view—the appointment of one boy - and two girls from the Roman Catholic children as pupil teachers After the Select Vestry had terminated its pro ceedings, Mr. Farnall proceeded to the West Derby workhouse, for the purpose of making enquiry into the subjec tof a letter addressed by the Chairman to the Poor Law Board with reference to the adminis tration of relief, &c. A variety of evidence on oath was taken, after which the matter was adjourned until this day. As far as the testimony collected yes terday went, it did not by any means sustain the charges brought by Mr. Shaw, but he still persists in the idea, that he can fully substantiate his charges, which have already appeared in the NORTHERN TIMES. The Lord-Lieutenant, Earl Carlisle, has been lionising in the north of Ireland. Every where he showed his face, he met with an enthusiastic and cordial reception. The painfu speculations to which the late mysterious dis appearance of the Baron de Roebulk gave rise, are at length set at rest, the body of the ill-fated nobleman having been found on Saturday evening in the river Liffey, under such circumstances as leave no doubt that his death was caused by accidental drowning. When the body was taken out of the water, it was found to be in an advanced state of decomposition—having lain at the bottom of the river since the 30th of September. There is little Continental news of moment to day. Letters from Vienna say that the rumours which have been lately current, that the Western Powers have given up the idea of sending their squadrons to Naples, and that the affair would be pacifically arranged, are utterly unfounded. The last news from Naples states that the King remains as obstinate as ever, and persists in Great Western, 64. fancashire and Yorkshire, 94-1,1. London, Brighton, and South Coast, 1044.

Although considerable arrivals of Specie by the steamer Asia, from New York, and the Champion of the Seas, from Melbourne, are announced, they have not exercised any material effect upon the Money Market, or in the London Stock Exchange, because it is believed that very large sums will yet be required by France to support the declining metallic resources of the National Bank at Paris. Occasionally the private ad vices refer to certain symptoms which are deemed encouraging, but no positive relief from the recent pressure has yet been experienced. 2\t the same time, however, it is remarked that an easier feeling prevails among moneyed men, and this slight revival of confidence may go far to mitigate the crisis. The restrictive measures adopted by the Bank of France, and the course taken by the government, are exercising some beneficial influence, but it is thought pro bable that a more stringent policy will yet be necessary before affairs are restored to a satis factory position. With regard to our own Money Market there is no change to report, the demand for discounts being steady at full prices. Perhaps, however, the payment of the divi dends on Public Securities, which commenced to-day, and will be seen by the subjoined notice posted at the Bank of England, may afford some temporary relief Notice is hereby given, that the payment of the October dividends to the public will commence on Tuesday, the 14th October." Although advances in anticipation of these divi dends may have been obtained to a large extent, a portion of the proceeds will be sure to find their way into the money market for re - investment. The reaction on the Paris Bourse yesterday produced a heavy market for public securities this morning, but fair support is given to the quotations by continued purchases on account of the public.

Flour has also been in fair request ; fine qualities commanding in some cases slightly higher rates. Indian corn has been sold to a tolerable extent, at an advance of 6d per qr. There has been a steady demand for Egyptian beans, and the value has gradually improved. The Manchester Trade Report of this day, states that producers are asking higher rates, but as yet are not able to obtain them, excepting for some articles, such as warps, which are dearer, and, consequently, against manufacturers. At Rochdale, we learn that the dealings in flannel have been much the same as last week. The talk of short time still continues. Two firms were reported as having commenced this morning. One that began last week, has begun long time again. Things are in an unsettled state, and manufacturers are hesitating, as they consider the making of goods at present rates unprofitable. Yorkshire goods tradehave at been rather Rochdale brisker s unchanged, last butweek. pricesspeaking, The Wool remain firm. In some case s a f a i r ish trade has been done, but generally sp ea ki n g, b u y ers k eep their wants at a minimum. Generally the accounts from all the manufacturing towns confirm much that has been said regarding the extent to which the trade of the country is independent of the movements of the discount market. In no quarter is there the slightest indication of the advance to 6 and 7 per cent. having interfered with the regular course of operations. At Birmingham there has been full employment, and general prospects are encouraging. Foreign orders ar e received to an average extent, while from Australia the demand is active.

Austrian advices persist in affirming, in the most positive manner, that a more satisfactory state of feeling has manifested itself at the Court of Naples with regard to the demands of the Western Powers This change for the better is attributed to the autograph letter from the Emperor Francis Joseph, which was delivered to King Ferdinand by Gen. Martini; but there still exist some differences of opinion as to the form in which the concessions of the Neapolitan Government will be made. Further details of the Moscow fetes have come to hand, but we regret that our previously occupied space prevents further notice this morning. Advices from Madrid allude to the letter of the Emperor of the French to the Queen of Spain. and say, in that letter, the Emperor congratulates himself on the results favourable to order which recent events have produced, and on the manner in which constitutional questions have been decided, in accordance with the interests of the throne and of liberty. The present govern ment considers the last concordat with Rome as in full force, and the negotiations respecting it, which are about to be opened with the Holy See, will only relate to the interpretation to be given to certain articles., By way of Marseilles, we have advices from Con stantinople to the 6th inst. The Porte has invited the Ambassadors to a preparatory meeting for the Convocation of the Divans, who are to declare their wishes on the subject of the re-organisation of the Principalities. THE RED JACKET.—In our impression of yesterday it was announced that this vessel had not arrived out at Melbourne, and it was also stated that she had left this port fifteen days before the Lightning, which had arrived out in sixty—nine days. We gave the report as it reached 113 on the eve of publication without, at the moment, testing its accuracy. Had we had the opportunity of doing so, we should have discovered the fact which we now publish, namely, that the Lightning sailed from Liverpool Aileen days before the Red Jacket, and the latter vessel, therefore, had only been fifty six days at sea when the Champion of the Seas left Melbourne on the 16th of July. THE NORTHERN TIMES.---LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY. COMING OF AGE OF THE RIGHT HON THE EARL OF SEFTON. This nobleman, the E irl of Sefton, attained his majority yesterday. The youthful lord was left a minor in July, 1355, and inherited the ti-le and estates of his noble ancestors. The family of Molyneaus is, perhaps, not only one of the oldest celebrity in Lancashire, but, what is of more value, one of the most popular and beloved in England. Compared with the antiquity Of the family, and the services rendered by its members to the country and the monarchs, since the Norman line of kings, the earldom is comparatively of recent date. It is not titles, however, that enoble this truly noble family, and it would be as proud a distinction to fourth Earl of Sefton to say, " I am the lineal descendant of the great Molyneaux," as it is for him this day to boast of being the worthy successor of his amiable and beloved father, whose conduct as a landlord, a legislator, a friend, and kind neighbour, shed a lustre on the noble house and endeared him to all—not only those who came within his influence, but those who heard of his name. The name of Molyneaux is one that, through ages of strife, has never had a blot on its escutcheon. Centuries have passed, and revolutions have come and gone, the noble name remained unchanged in principle, and the young man who his seen his majority yesterday, is as much beloved by the people as his great ancestor who distinguished himself at Flodden field. With the name, he has inherited the virtues of his great ancestors, and it must be a proud r( flection to the youthful nobleman, that even in his juvenile days, his conduct has secured for him the deep esteem and love of all who knew him. The rogret felt at the loss of his pubis father, was in some measure softened by the lcao\,:edge that his son had wr:lkA in his footsteps. From position lke command , respect; but by his virtutes he has gained the love of all. His tenantry are, without exception, the happiest in England-4,11e has exhibited prudence and I knowledge beyond his years—the precepts of his honoured father, and the teachings of his noble and amiable mother, have contributed, along with his own disposition, to make him a model—and long may ho continue to enjoy the blessings which nature and fortune has bestowed most worthily on him. It is no wonder, then, to find the people who are more immediately connected with this young nobleman, meetin g at the festive board to celebrate the happy event of his attaining his majority, and assuming the dignity of his long line of ancestors. It is a curious fact connected with this ancient family, that it never lacked a direct male heir, for a period of, at least, eight centuries. The joyous occasion of yesterday was celebrated at Aintree, in a manner that done honour to the name, whilst it reflected credit on those assembled. A more appropriate locality could not have been selected for the festivities, and a man better fitted to do justice to the rejoicings, than Mr. Topham, could not have been chosen. There was a sinceri'y about the whole affair, that spoke more for the honoured, and the participators in the honour, than the mere common-place routine generally resorted to on like occasions. Everything done and said was genuine, and came spontaneously from the heart, in a true old English style. A resolve was made to do honour to the young man, and well was that resolve fulfilled. It was not the mere fact of a number of gentlemen assembling together to eat and drink, and display oratorial powers. Such an object as that might be accomplished without any great reason for so doing ; bat here were met parties whose sentiments were sincere—who eschewed flattery, and gave utterance to the pure emotions by which they were actuated. It was a happy meeting, and proud may the young earl be of such a gathering to do him honour—honour well merited. THE DINNER Took place at the Sefton Arms Hotel, close to the Race Course. The banquet was provided by the host, Mr. E. W. Topham, in the best style, and, in the usual phrase, it con sisted of everything that could be produced at this abundant season of the year. The dinner was everything that could be wished ; everything the season afforded was in profusion, and the wines were abundant, of the best quality, and con sisted of champagne, and other favourite vintages. Between forty and fifty gentlemen sat down to the banquet, and amongst them were the following : James Ashcroft, Robert Baker, Henry Banks, Blackwell, Bissett Bretherton, James Birch, John Daly, Centest, Edwards, W. Fowler, Frodsham, Gibbertson, Dr. Higgin son, James Ledson, Langshaw I Meadows, Molvneux, Nut tall, Orritt, Pye, Rogerson, Tyrer, Walthew, Wilson, Wil kins, 'Vernon, Bennion, Pecking, Musgrave, Zachary, Kerr, &c., &e. E. W. Topham, Esq., ably filled the chair, and he had for the vice chair an able representative in James Langshaw, Esq., of Manchester. The banquet was given by Mr. Topham, the valued and respected lessee of the course at Aintree, in honour of the coming of age of the noble earl, who is so likely to prove a worthy successor of his honoured father. It would be an act of injustice to Mr. Topham to omit saying that every thing was done i n hie usual prinooly style, for ho never does things by half ; and, besides the excellence of the entertainment, his personal attention and urbanity merited the warmest applause of the repectable company. The room was tastefully laid out for the interesting occasion, and festoons of flowers, evergreens, &c, were hung round, so as to form a gay appearance. When the excellent viands had been discussed; and the cloth drawn, The Chairman rose and called for a bumper. Re gave " The health of her most gracious Majesty the Queen." Drunk with all the honours Song by Mr. Nuttall. The Chairman then gave "The Prince of Wales," which was duly honoured. The next toast was " Prince Albert, and the rest of the Royal Family." The Chairman then gave" The Emperor and Empress of the French—our noble allies." (Loud cheers.) It was well known the assistance given by the French in the late war, and the privations endured by the brave French people, and, therefore, they should be honoured with a bumper. The toast was received and drunk with enthusiasm. The Chairman again rose to propose " The Army and Navy." He said the brave men who had in some measure saved the country, deserved their gratitude. The toast was drunk with fill the honours. Captain Howard, of the merchant service, was loudly called on to return thanks. He bore testimony to the bravery of both army and navy, as he had beheld their exer tions in the Crimea. He was warmly greeted. The Chairman then proposed " Her Majesty's Ministers." The next toast proposed by the Chairman was " The Jord Bishop of the Diocese." - That prelate had set an example of Christian charity to all England, and it afforded him great pleasure in wishing his lordship long life and every happiness. The toast was duly honoured. The Chairman then rose to propose the health of the youthful Earl of Sefton. He was greeted with loud applause. He said, the next toast which he had the honour of proposing, was one that he was sure would. meet with their approbation and applause. (Hear, hear.) He did not know the young and promising nobleman, as well as he knew his honoured father—(hear, hear,)—but from what he did know of him, he was bound to speak. (Cheers.) He had only spoken to his lordship on two occasions, and from what he had observed o•f him on these occasions, he must, with truth, say that he found him to be a perfect gentleman, and he bad no hesitation in saying, that his lordship was, what they all would be glad to hear—he was all right. (Cheers.) He could not help saying a word about thu honoured and noble father of the present Earl, whom they all knew and valued. (Hear, hear) He was the soul of chivalry, and they all had seen him, both here and in Liverpool. (Hear, hear.) They all knew him to be a good landlord, a good husband, and the best of fathers. (Hear, hear.) Ile was beloved by all who knew him—he was revered for his charity, and his good qualities were appreciated by every one, high and low. (Cheers.) Whilst thus speaking of the father, they should not, nor could they, forget the sou—the young nobleman whom they had met that evening to honour. (Hear, hear.) He (Mr. T.) had no doubt that the young gentleman would follow in the footsteps of his noble father, and prove fully as good a man. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) lie (Mr. Topbarn) determined, on his own part, to show his respect to the young earl, not only on his own account, hut also in honour to his father's memory. (Cheers.) And therefore it was that he had the honour of invitoL , his friends to join him in that mark of respect that evening. (Hear, hear.) He had many little squabbles—if he might call them such—with the late noble and generous earl, and as these pertained to matters of business, he had no hesitation in saying that if he were wrong, the earl would tell him so ; but if he were right, the earl would at once, with that noble frankness of his generous nature, say, " Topham is right, and I admire him for it." (Loud cheers.) From what he (Mr. Topham) saw of the young earl, there was no doubt he would walk in his father's footsteps, because he had had evidence of it. (Cheers.) As an humble individual, he (Mr. Topham) had deemed it prudent to assemble the company . there that evening to bid welcome to the worthy son of a worthy father, and he would therefore propose, " The Health of the Earl of Sefton, long life and prosperity to him." A Voice: May he be as good a man as his father. The toast was drunk with musical honours and nine times nine. Mr. Wilson, house steward at Croxteth for twenty seven years, in an able speech spoke to the toast. The following toasts were then given, and properly honoured :—" The Countess of Sefton," " The Earl of Derby," " The Lord Lieutenant of the County," and several others. The Vice-Chairman then gave the " Turf'," and made an excellent and humerous speech, and mentioned what a person had said to him a short time ago—" The turf was not what it used to was" (loud laughter), for, continued his friend, " Now legs have turned swells, and swells have turned legs." (Cheers.) After an exceedingly happy speech, he proposed " The Good men above the turf, and the bad men under it." In the course of some conversational observations which followed, the Liverpool Mercury was spoken of in terms, the opposite of complimentary, whilst the NORTHERN TIMES, and Daily Post, were loudly applaud d. The next toast was the " Press," which was duly honoured. Mr. John Daly, of Carlisle, proposed the health of the worthy chairman, and this was carried with the most rapturous applause. Several other toasts were proposed, and many excellent songs given, particularly by Dr. Higginson, and after spending an agreeable even ing, for which all felt indebted to the worthy lessee of the Aintree Course (Mr. Topham), all separated, highly pleased. The latter speeches we were reluctantly obliged to cur tail, in consequence of the pressure on our spase._; terial crisis THE REV. DR.

FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, MONDAY EVENING Most important news has arrived today from 1 Spain. The O'Donnell Cabinet has ceased to exist, and one presided over by General Narvaez has taken its place. The telegraph, however, will have informed you long before this letter can arrive, of this important event. At present. the circum stances that have led to it, are not known even by the government; but, whatever they be, they have occurred with greater rapidity than had been expected. The new cabinet is thus composed : General Narvaez, President of the Council ; M. Pidal, Minister of Foreign Affairs ; M. Seifas, Finance ; M. Nocedal, Interior ; M. Arzuela, Justice; General Urbistondo, War; and General Lersundi, Marine. In addition to these appoint ments, General Sanz has been nominated Captain General of Madrid, and General Pezuela Director of Cavalry. With the exception of M. Pidal, none of the new ministers are of much political note; but as they will be expected to obey purely and simply the commands of Narvaez, this does not much matter. What course Narvaez means to pursue remains to be seen, but it will no doubt be one of blind reaction ; and it is morally certain tliqt it will lead sooner or later to nothing less than tie overthrow of the throne of Queen rflw Bourse has been bad again to-day--the Threes having fallen on Saturday's quotations no less than 65 cents for cash, and 70 cents for time, and other securities having declined like wise. The cause of the fall was partly the news from Spain, partly the report that the Bank of France was about to take other restrictive measures, and that its metallic reserve has, within the last few days, diminished very considerably, and partly a report that the English and French Ambassadors at Naples have been re-called. With regard to the Bank of France, it is denied that it contemplates the adoption of any new measures of seventh; and it is asserted by persons who pretend to be in its confidence, that its metallic reserve, so far from having diminished, has increased within the last few days to the extent of £300,000 sterling. With respect to the reported recall of the Ambas sadors from Naples, I am able to assure you, on good authority, that it is unfounded. But at the same time, it is considered very likely, that before very many days shall elapse, the recall will be issued. Even the German papers which have hitherto maintained that the Neapolitan question would lead to nothing, now express fears that the threatened naval demonstration will certainly be made, not by England alone, but by France also. But the German papers have fallen into such gross contradictions on this question, that there is no relying on anything they say. What is certain, is, that the French fleet continues quietly at Tou lon, and that the English one remains at Ajaceio. I told you, yesterday, that great importance was attached here to the continued occupation of the Danubian Principalities by the Austrians, and that the matter was considered likely to lead to great difficulty. The semi—official Constitutionnel has this morning au article against Austria, on the subject ; and it is said that all the news- papers, under the control of the government, have received instructions 'to make the most of the affair. The precise object of France in making a fuss about it just now does not appear. Accord ing to the Independance, of Brussels, the English Cabinet, out of vexation at the conduct of France in the Neapolitan affair, does not support her in the matter so cordially as she thinks she has the right to expect, and accordingly some very sharp notes have passed between the two governments. But statements in the Independance must be received with caution According to a Frankfort newspaper, the French Government has sent a reply to the late circular of Prince Gortschakoff, in which it maintains that the projected intervention of England and France in Naples is not contrary to international law. On dit, that the Prussian Government contem• plates a complete re-organisation of its system of taxation. There have been some disturbances in the little Italian republic of San Marino. They were caused by refugees from the Papal States, but were of no importance. WEST DERBY GUARDIANS SPECIAL Y MEETING. - -ESTERDAY. IMPORTANT INVESTIGATION. The readers of the NORTHERN TIMES are already aware that, for some time past, certain parties have been dissatisfied with the mode in which relief is granted in certain quarters of the township. It will also be recollected that Mr. Shaw was the prime mover in the affair, and addressed a letter to the Poor Law Commissioners, asking them to send down Mr. Farnall, the Poor Law Inspector, to visit the workhouse, and hold an 'enquiry into the allegations put forth in Mr. Shaw's letter. This communication has appeared in the NORTHERN TIMES of the 11th ult. On the receipt of Mr. Shaw's letter, a correspondence took place b e t ween the Rev. Mr. Badnall, Chairman of the West Derby Guardians, and the Poor Law Board, the result of which was, that on yesterday Mr. Farnall, Poor Law Inspector, attended for the purpose of investigating the correctness of Mr. Shaw's statements. The enquiry took place in the boardroom of the West Derby workhouse. There was a large attendance of guardians present, namely, the Rev. Mr. Badnall, chairman, Messrs. Harrison, Lunt, Johns, Pickup, Roscoe, Craig, Rains, Leyland, Wilson, Edwards, R. Shaw, Callis, Abraham, Batten, Davis, Richmond, Evans, Elias, and Siddeley. Mr. Farnall opened the proceedings by referring to the correspondence which had taken place between Mr. Shaw and the Poor Law Board on the one hand, and the Chairman of the West Derby Guardians and the Commissioners on the other. In consequence of that correspondence, he was there that day to investigate the truth, or otherwise, of the charges brought f orwar d b y Mr. Shaw, and would then proceed to take the evidence of the overseers. He would first observe that he had seen the remarks which appeared in the NORTRBRN TIMES of that day, and should be glad if he could, by his visit, attain the desirable result alluded to by that journal. _ The first witness examined, was Mr. Barnett, one of the overseers of Toxteth-park. He said that no cases had come under his notice of either a public or private character, where parties complained of getting less relief in Toxteth_park than in other districts of the union. It was the rule of the board to consider and adjudicate upon every case of relief which came before them upon its own merits. He was never at variance with the medical officer of the district, and was perfectly satisfied with the mode in which relief is administered to the poor on his books. He had raised the relief of a pauper himself, after the case had been before the board,, but not before some alteration or new feature had taken place in the case. None of the relieving officers had said to him that he was treating the paupers of Toxteth-park with harshness. He had known of paupers leaving his district to go to another, but they were of the very lowest characters. These went into Mr. Lathatn's district, to try and get an increased relief, but did not obtain it. He had not any know ledge of any other removals, and had never compared notes with the other overseer as to the rate of relief granted. The allowance to an old and infirm woman, who could not work, but was able to go out, would be about 2s 6d per week. A widow with three children, who could go about, would be allowed 3s per week. Mr. Farnall here said, that if the board agreed, he thought that the other overseers might be admitted to be present, as, by so doing, it would abridge the time of the enquiry. Some members thought that it would be as well to call them as they were required, but ultimately they were brought in to attend to the examination. Cross-examination resumed : Considers that the poor of his district are relieved as they ought to be. He thought that their necessities were well provided for. The witness was at great length examined upon all those points, and most emphatically denied that there was any difference made in the amounts of relief to paupers in Toxteth-park and other districts of the union. Mr. Shaw cross-examined Mr. Barnett at much length as to several cases of alteration of relief, with the view of proving some of his (Mr. Shaw's) allegations, but in this the witness was very emphatic in disproving. Mr. William Allen, and Mr. Latham, overseers of West Derby, and part of Toxteth park, gave similar evidence to that of Mr- Barnett, and the Rev. Mr. Bad nall and Mr. Cleaver volunteered a statement that, as at present constituted, they were most anxious to admini. ster relief impartially. Two or three years ago matters were otherwise. Except in very rare cases, whenever he recommended an increase in relief it was granted. Mr. Cleaver substantiated Mr. Badnall's remarks. This closed the examination of witnesses for the day. At this stage of the proceedings, Mr. Shaw stated he was not satis fied with the case as it then stood, and he wished to have Mr. John Whitehead, and Mr. Parnell, vestry cleric, Kirkdale, examined. The matter was adlourned until this morning at ten o'clock. ~~":' THE COLLISION BETWEEN THE VI AND THE MARGARET. The resumed enquiry into the cause o f this GeorgesGeorgeswas held, yesterday, in the Sheriff's Court St. Hall, before Mr. Mansfield a nd Captain' Schonberg' Amongst the other witnesses examined wa George Henderson, the overlooker ofs r. na shipyards, at Birkenhead and Liverpool, who was board the Vigo at the time of the collision• H eele d tb° the vessel was going into the Sloyne. order to that effect.
