The ship was a fine and desirable one to sail in; the prisoners did not object to her ; they did clot object to Captain Shaw, but they alleged that they did not like the chief 0135 c r. He would prove this ease, arts press for a heavy penalty ; not on'y for the purpose of cautioning -oiler men from acting in such an illegal and outragelus manner, but to save merchants the expense and great inc nvrni:nce to _which such. c4iiduct subjected them.

A. meeting of clergymen and gentlemen was held at half past twelve o'clock yesterday, in the Savings' Bank, Bold street, for the pur„rose of establishing a book-hawking society for the south-west of Lancashire. The chair was ' occupied by the Lord B shop of Chester, and among the clergymen end gentlemen present were —The Venerable Archdeacon Jones, Rev. Rector Campbell, 'Revs. J. Bush, Ormskirk ; T. G. Leigh, Welton ; W. C alder, T. Carter, Clarke,Crot:by ; B lee, J. Stewart, West Derby ; H. LAM., Walton Bieck; G. J. Banner, Roby ; J. B Lowe, B S. Clarke, Southport ; H. Evans, Walton Breek ; W. T. Tattersall, R. D Indy, J. H. klyne, F. M. Mirka, F. A Matteson ; H. Menzies, Feq , Southport; H Robert, Esq., E. Astley, Esq . H. Marshall, &e. His LORDSHIP said, that the ottject for which they were met was to consider the expediency of establishing some system for sending round hawkers with books for sale amot g the scattered dwellings, and among the poor generally is the neighbourhood of Liverpool. He did not understand that it had reference to the town of Liverpool, but to the outlaying districts. In every family now, some member was able to read, and it was of great consequence that there should be a supply of suitable books for them to read. ( Hear, hear.) There were a g.:eat number ef books of a very bad and immorel tendency circulated in the country among the poor, and if they (the society) by any additional energy and activity, could circulate religious, moral, and instructive books, they would be dAng a great deal for the positive benefit of the poor, and to counteract the ill effects of those other publications which unfortunately found their way amongst the humbler classes. Wherever he 'children of the p3or came to school, he hoped the clergy availed themselves of that opportunity to convey useful public ations to the pa eats, but there were many parents who did not send their chil 'refs to school, and who of RAMO should be reached through other means. Such a book-hawking eociety as that which they were now about to initiate, was establishe I within the last year in the dis riet of Wirrall, and was, he believed, working well. In conclusion, his lordship expressed the pleasant which it gave him to be able to show his good will to this nutter taking, and to find the clergy and laity exerting them selves in so many ways fir the benefit of the poor, and the rising generation. (Hear, heat. ) Mr P. HUNTER who suggested the formation of the society, moved the first resolution He said that they intesded to take Garston as the south boundary, and S outhport the north boundery of the district, within which the society would operate, and it would be the endeavour of all parties to keep it as free as possible from any particular bias (Hear, hear.) The object of this society would not be of a proselytising nature, but to gain admittance for their hawkers into every house at which they might call. (Hear, hear.) Such a society was working well in North Heats, at d also in districts of Scotland, and it certainly was much wanted in this part of the country. Their present intention was to take the outskirts, or country districts round Liverpool, and he felt sure that if the clergy gave the society their assistance and co-operation it could be made most useful. ( Ile hear.) In con olusion, he moved that a society, to be called the Siu.h West Lancashire Book-Hawking Associa tion, based on rules identical with those published by the Rev. G. IL Sumner, and comprising the districts within the pints already named, be formed. He had sent circulars to 48 clergymen, and from 31 he had received answers approving of the object of the society. Thirteen sent no rt ply, and he to. k their silence as a mark of approval. One declined joining the society, as his own district was already well worked in the delivery of tracts. They had, however, no intentien to interfere wi h arty district where the incumbent objected, or to circulate in any district books or tracts to which the incumbent objected. (Hear, hear.) They intended to war with infidel and im moral publications by the circulation of g rod, useful, and instructive books. All the bodies, even the infi lele and Mormouttes, sought to cirsulate their books, and he could not see why they of the Charch of England should not do the same. (Illar, hear) They had a most liberal offer from a bookseller in town, to put them on the best footing without any p-ofit, and he fielc confident that with exertion the society could be made an efficient means for pod. (Hear, hear.) The Venerable Archdeacon JONSS seconded the motion, and in doing so sail that the necessity for the society arose also from the fact that very improper publications were being circulated, very widely, in the rural districts and in the towns, but particularly in the rural districts, by means of persons that might be properly wailed hawkers and whose object was to sell whatever was called for, whether good, bad, or indifferent They knew, also, that a good many obscene prints and publications found their way to the remote districts of the country, and they naturally wished to counteract—and what min of Christian feeling would not wish to counteract—so serious an evil. ((Isar, hear) It was difficult to d ► any good without having some objection raised to it. There was one grand objection raised to this undertaking, namely, that it would interfere with free trade and injure some petple in their business; but he did not find that it had been attended with injury in other districts, or that any - such complaint had been made of it. (Hear, hear.) In conclusion, he urged the meeting to support the undertaking. Rev. Mr. Mantotsom Rupp yted the motion, and detailed the working of the Book-hawking Association, which was within the past year es . ablished in th 2 district of Wirrall. Rev. Mr. BUSH regretted that o:mskirk was not included in the sphere of the society's intended operations, where ha was coofident it would do much g rod. It was agreed to include Ormekirk in the district, and the motion was unanimously adopted. Mr. ASTLRY Moved the second resolution which was to to this effect—That the books to be circulated, including Bibles, prayer books, & t, should be those least likely to clash with any theological or poli icel opinion. The Rev. Mr. Loatis seconded the motion, which was unanimously adopted. On the motion of Mr. M. - 10MM, secenle.l by the Re v M . . Ceißlig, of Southport, a general committee, having the Lord Bishop for its president, was formed. On the m otion of the Rev. Mr. CALDER, se tended by the Rev. M. CARTER, a managing cenmittee was formed. On the motion of the Rev. Mr. STUART sec ended by the Rev. Mr. 'husks, it was resolved that the friends of the Society be requested to send in their subscriptions as speedily as Feasible, as it won d require 150 to start with Oa the tuition of the Rev.

We ventn:ce to say, says the Cork Reporter, that if many of that clam to whom the Times appeals to " take on" with the recruiting sergeant were to witness the exciting scene - which the harbour of Queenstown presented on Tuesday, they would be more impressed with a military ardour than from all the teachings and exhortations of "The Thunderer," or from the pulpit lectures in favour of enlistment which he • ecommends. Amid the crowd of vessels of all size, build, and rig, wh eh lay moored in the noble harbour, the leviathan Great Britain, Captein Gele, lay like a Triton among the Minnows—her gigantic bulk rendering every other Craft small in comparison. She seemed, indeed, in all her prepoteions, a truly splendid model of naval architecture ; but if anything to an unpro fessional can would seem exceptionable, it would be the immense balk and weight of her three ponderous masts, her vast spars and weighty rigging, which at once arrested the spec'atora attention. Shortly after three o'clock one of the largest of the river s•eamera r mailed Whirepoier, having on beard the head-qear:ers, band, &c., of the 17th Lancers, bound for India, aryl about to embark on board the Great Britain. Immediately on entering the'harbeur the band struck up " Oh3er, boys, cheer," and " Tne I left behind me," as they came alongside, and bega, to climb u ) the steep tides of the ve'sel, amid the loud and hearty cheering of comrades n b ierd. The band snuck up the lively air of "Susar3ah don't you cry " When all were on beard and mustered, the band came on the quarter-deck and perfarmed in beau ifel style the fine air " Anil Lang Syne," with variations. The men then set about teklng up their quarters and stowing their traps, and in the mean time the bands of the Bth Hussars and 17th Lancers continued to play a fine selection of music. The scene at this time was very grand and striking, the crew of the Efopte, flat ship, were being exercised at practice with the heavy galas, in what are called the man-of- war reads, and the booming of the carmen over the st,ll surface of the waters mingtiog with the delicious music of two splendid military hands, and the rich panorama of scenery on landand shore produced an indescribably sp'eadid effeet—sueh as, indeed, in no other harbour in Ireland could be teen to such advantage. The embarkation of the troops was conducted under the immediate direction of Captain Locke, agent to the East In his Company, through whose assiduous exertions all the arrangements were most satisfactorily, conducted. The following are the officers who sail in the Great Britain : 80i Hussars.—Major Naylor (in command), Major Chet wode. Captains APNaughten, Pagsat, flenneage, Cloweq, Penton, and Poore.

Sir,—Happening to take up a copy of the Courier of last Wednesday week, my eye was caught by a letter, headed as above, and subscribad to by a " Real Liberal Elector of Abereromby Ward," advo cating strongly the cause of Mr, Hutchison, at the coming election for the Town Council in that ward, on the retirement of Mr. Tinne. Had a " Real Liberal Elector" confined himself' to this, I should never have taken upon myself to answer him. On reading through his letter, how ever, I found he did not—far front it. He thought it ne-iestary, either for trahl'o morals, or private en - le, to answer a weak and foolish communication which appeared some clays before in the Mercury, in favour of Mr. George Melly as representative for Abercromby Ward, by another letter, equally weak, equally foolish, and infinitely more ungentle manly, tit abuse of him, Nor did he stop here—ha went on to cast a sneer, alse, at that gentleman's brother, and had the bad taste, as well as ilf-fee'ino, to allude to him as of Watir tap notoriety," and to state that "We are not prepared to sill our birth right for a c , ip of dirty water" What notoriety Mr. Charles Melly has ever courted in public or in private life, his friends, his a-quaintances, and his fellow-`owns men, will bo equally at a loss to comprehend, and what this " reit liberal elector," this would-be wit and can't be gentleman means by " selling his birthright for a cup of dirty water," any drayman who has quenched his thirst from the "water tape' along the dock walls or elsewhere, (thereby savinrz both his money and his health) will scarcely be able to appreciate, though wee" he to read and understars the sneer of "a real liberal elector," he would be,doub:- . less, willing practically to enlighten him. With regard to what "a real liberal elector" says about Mr. Hutchison, I quite agree with him; Mr. Hutchison is a man we should be Owl to see in the 'sown Council—a man who ought to be there, and the electioneering cry of "docks" is worthy of the man who committed it to paper, aed subscribed himself "An Elector of Abe cromby Ward," in answering wh m, "A Real Liberal Elector" has cast such a coarse and uncalkl-tor sneer agit7nst one who always unostentatiousiy, and as far as has lain in his power, has benefited his fellow-townsmen. The praise a "Real Liberal Elector" bestows on Mr. Hutchison of never having spared his pocket, is, as we all know, well merited, and will equally apply to Mr. Charles Melly, who erected the "water-taps" at his own expense, and at a cost, I believe, of £3OO to £4OO ; and not only at a cost of maney, but of what is far more praiseworthy—unremitting persmasl trouble and unsparing personal labour Any one who knows how difficult it is in any lirge town, especially in Liverpool, to obtain from public companies, or from private individuals: leave to make any inrtovations of any kind what soever, must well appreciate the trouble and digieu!ty of erecting fountains and hying water pipes on almost every wall in this to ant. With regard to " A Real Liberal Eiectot's" sneer at Mr. George Melly, at the end of his ill-judged and ungentlemanly epistl,s ha has picked out a speech made by that gentleman at a noisy, crowded electioneering meeting, when he lost his temper, ant made use of very questionable language towards same vety question,ble characters, who were using very questionable means of silencing him For what he said regarding Mr. Bald ha very properly made an ample apology the very next time he had an opportunity of doing so ; and I think that the way he worked, not only n Abercromby Ward, but for the Liberal cause in gener4 at the last election, should have deterred a real " Liberal elector," - from stating that " he is com paratively Unknown, except ly his celebrated speech at the Amphitheatre," and picking out that one unfor innate instance as the type of the man for a "cry" against - him, in an election for which, as I am reli ably info teed, he has not the slighter: intention of standing. Mr. George Melly, as well as his . brother, has contributed his quota towards the welfare of the masses"—as any one acquainted with the Mason street Reformatory most he aware--in both cases, the sneer o' "A Real Liberal Elector" recoils on himsc'r, but is, perhaps, the least excusable in that of Mr. ChirlEs ; as he has not taken such an aaiivo part public affairs as his brother, and has, it is sai ,l , been askek, and refused to stand for this very ward. What he has done, he has done quietly anti unostentatiousiy; and although "mil Real Liberal Elector' chooses to east a sneer at the particular way he has taken to benefit his fellow - townsmen—as I have no doubt he would have managed to do at any other-1 would have him remember, th a the giving of a cup of "cold tiler" has, ere now, been considered of some ac3ount I would have him learn to write like a Liberal gentleman, as well as a " Liberal Elector ;" and, I would have him know, that a letter like his of last week, is repugnant to the f e eli ngs o f every gentle mAn who reads it, as well as to those of,—Sir, your obedient servant. A NON-ELveTott, BUT A LIBERAL. [The foregoing letter was refused admittane , .! in the Courier of yesterday, on the ground that it was "too late," onl number haviog, I believe, enme out since the one in eti!ilt the letter it intends to answer to was pub!isbed. If you will give it a olaca you will much oblige.] verpool, OA. 8 1857.

HEALTH COMM•TrEE The usual weekly meeting of this committee was held Id half-past two o'clock yast.rday, in the To rn Hall, Mr. Alderman Diver in the &air. _ Other members p-esent —Meszrs. Sheil, Beckwith, CrosthwAite, Stitt. Anthony, Johnson, and Haydock. In reply to Mr. SCITT, The OUTMAN said that the committee could not drain the Neweham House estate, it being outside the borough; if the Finance Committee paid theca the expense, they would, of course, readily do it. lICALTII OF TEM Tows. Ths Medical Odicer of Health reported that in the week ending on last Saturday, 232 del hs were registered in the borough, being 18 less than in the prefoue we k, and about the average of the same week of former years corrected for increase of population, but excluding the cholera. Fr nn zymotic diseases, the deaths were OD, of which 26 were from scarlatina, 21 from diarrhfee, (23 children, and 1 adult), being 12 less that in the week pre. ceding. 14 from typhus, 12 from heaping cough, 3 from small pox, (2 uevecciatteesl), 2 from measles, and 1 from croup. Diseases of the lungs caused 41 deaths 3 less than in the wecediog week. A licensed victualler died from the-effects of excessive drinking. During the quarter ending 23. h Septemb sr. 3,423 deaths were registered in the borough, including 189 sudden and violent deaths, and deaths in hospitals This number is 410 more than in the cor responding quarter of la , t year, and 70 more than the corrected average of the same quarter of the preceding nine years, excluding epidemic cholera. The deaths from zymotic diseases during the quarter were 1,239, being 115 more than the corrected average without cholera. From diarrhcet the deaths were 618 (nearly one-half of the entire number), the average being 463; from hooping-cough, 190; from scarlatina, 179; fever, 107; small-pox, 43, of which 12 were after vaccination ; dysentery, 33 ; cholera, 33 ; croup, 16 ; measles, 15 ; syphilis, 10. The only diseases of this class more Prevalent than usual, besides diarrhoea, were hooping cough and scarlatina, the latter of which still shows a disposition to spread. From heoping-cough the dea'hs daring the last five quarters have been, successively, 55, 65. 100. 158, 190 ; but the disea3e appears to have reached its maximum for the present The mortality of croup was lower than in any p-evious quarter, and that of measles lower than is any. with the excep'ion of the quarter immediately preceding Diseases of the lungs (includin g 358 fr comumptim) caused 614 deaths, about 30 less than the average. The Borough Eegineee Building Surveyor. and In spector of Nuisances reported various particulars of the operations in their several departments during the week, from which it appeared that 118 nuisances complained of by inhabitants hal been inspected, and means taken to remedy them; and 1,156 houses, in the unhealthiest districts containing 4 058 apartment-, and 846 cellars, had been put under examination, with the view of improving their sanitary condition. In reply to the CHAIRMAN, Dr. Duseter said that, at present, there was no appear ance of epidemic cholera in Liverpool. It was generally preceded by an increase of diarrhea a; but that disease was decreasing, instead of increasing. It would be Lis duty to report to the committee its first appearance, and they would then make all necessary arrangements. It had reached Eramburgh, but Eve months generally elapsed after its appearance in that city before it reached Liverpool. They would not, therefore, hive it Were spring ; but he hoped. and it was probable, that they world escape it altogether. This conclu 'ed ihi general business. CORONER'S COURT. The borongh•coroner held the following inque3ta yester day On the body of Julia Maher, 5 years old, wh) died in consequence of her clothes having caught fire in her father's house, 45, Ford-street.

Sir,—l noticed in your columns on Monday, an article having, reference to the Jennens property, at the same time announcing that the real and true heir has at length administered to the enormous treasure standing to the credit of a Jannens— through not an "active claimant." I have for years taken a prominent part in the investigation con netted with the heirship to this property, and my reEp.arehes into the family history of the Jeunens, so far convinced ma of the Martins claim, that I some few weeks past gave a public leetare in the Public Hall, in Colchester, setting forth their real and true position. at the same time public'y declaring that the Martins of Colchester, in Essex, are alone descended from the Jennens family. Your correspondent - , Mr. R. JenningS, haS done honour to his name, in publicly acknowledging, through the column of the NORTHERN TIMES, his total abandanment of all claim or title to this large property, which he and the whole race of the Jennings throughout the four quarters of the globe, have erroneously believed to be theirs. Mr. Jennings is slightly in error when he states the family of Howe are mixed up with the Jennens estates. I beg to assure him, if he gives himself the trouble to unravel the mystery (as I have done). he will find it only in name.—l am, Sir, yours obediently, GEORGE PRATT. 21, Islington Buildings.

(Translated from the writings of Bhowany Wahwaneth Kenwindey, a Hindoo.) tat ee now PI-4trh the life of a widow. When the husband falls sick she prays to every go 3 to have com passion on her, asks the doctor to nreserve the life of her kind husband, taking her to be his daughter, for, says she, the tie cf love ad "ed to the fuure state of wretchedness t which she would be subjected, compels her to make such a request. Ware it promised her that if she offered her life his would be saved, she would with great delight bid fare well to this world and its inhabitants, and leave her dear husband, the peom3ter of her comfort, to live and enjoy more bliss and happiness, When the doctor gives up all hopes of him she sits near his bed shedding torrents of tears for the would be loss f her husband, looks at him from head to toe, and cries ' Oh, what a heavy loss I shall have to: suffer!' She smites on her cheeks, tears her hair, atd beats her heart with the severe pang of sorrow, and boks at everything, even her daily nourishing food, with disgust, beeau e her object of bye has suddenly to disappear. When it is doomed that he should. die, no doctor's medicine, no mantras of Bhuts, no human being possessed of whenever powers will save him from the clutches of death, who hovers around his prey and waits for the appointed In .ment to make his attack. At last, though nobody knows yet, the time c3mee, and the man who aid wonders, who boasted of his strength and of his fortune, is left in the spot motionless. That valuable thing li'e leaves him altogether. When this catastrophe occurs cries of lamentation are shouted aloud. The mother cries for her son, the sister for her brother, the aunt for her nephew, the mother-in-law fir her son-in-law and her daughter, who is reckoned as dead while living, and the wife for her dear and affection ate husband ; but the mother may have another son, the sister another brother, the aunt another nephew, and the mother-in-law another son-in-law, which is a sufficient temptation for them to forget at some future period their heavy loss ; but the death of the husband proves as a fresh wound of '. a poisoael dagger all her lifetime on the heart of his wire who by the present ts rannical custom does not expect to get herself relieved of h3r widowhood. The weeping and snowing of all, and particularly of the widow, on whom as it were the whole l mountain of sheer mhsery has fallen, is indescribable. A person possessed of a butcher's heart will not stand a minute to gaze on the spectacle without his heart being meted with compassion and shedding tears; but superstition has made such a stamp on the hearts of her relations that they stand gazing like a wooden doll, and think of making an increase to the afflictions of the widow instead of commiserating on her con.iition. They prepare to make her appear the ugliest iof all creatures. The long hair which nature has provided her for wearing fhwer wreaths, and which f 3rm one of the emblems of her beauty are instantly shaved, the red mark on het forehead which makes her face appear handsome is forcibly rubbed, the bangles and the jodwas (finger ornaments), whose slight stroke attracts the mind of everybody, and which suddenly awakens a sleepy man, are cruelly broken and st ipped off, the geld, silver, and pearl ornaments, which serve to increase her beauty, are violently taken off her b3dy, and even the best of her clothes she wore are powerfully demanded of her, and in return she is left without any other thing but a wretched cloth called plttal. One who was some days ago an object of attraction, is made by adamantine hearts and wicked hands t a appear as the ugliest of creatures Instead of sympathising with the widow, who was the sole comforter of her husband, th 3 sole sharer of his sorrows, one who belongs to the tribe, to whom we owe our existence and our happiness as human beings, we surrounded with blind prejudice, turned against her with a scourge of vengeance as if she has very much injured us. We shall ask, and pause for rep - y, what right have we to deprive her of her beauty which nature has given her ? Can one head come out to defend this black deed ? Can one out of so many pretend to show us any decree from 'leaven, empowering him to get a av,man's heal shaved ? WIND FLOUR MILLS ON 111 WESTXRN PRURIIIS.— YANKYIII INVEN rios.—For years foe great trouble to the farmers of the Western prairies has been the want r f fi iur mills. Wil'iam D. Snow, of Dixon, Illinois, has given much atten ioa to wind power as a substitute for steam or, the pr iries. Afer two years' api lication, and an expense of 12,000 dollars in tips imendng,. he h-s succeeded in making improvements in winl sails that will make a new era in milling at th- West. The trouble heretofore has been in goverring the sai's, ant causing a steady motion. This he h , s arcompliset, and faur new mills now in full opera ion in North9rii Illinois give evidence of it. I left Chicago two dais since to see the operation of one of his improved mil's at this point. It works admirably, with tip ° ru i of stones of f ur feet each. The sails shift and go round by means o' a railway in the dome of the mill, and are alwa)s found in the wind. This is dune by machinery, without stopping work. The greatest ingenuity is in reefing aid unreeling the sails, by inaehi-ery, according to the strength of the wind, which is done in three seconds, without ' , topping grinding. The mill hero has been in operation a month, and turns out about twenty bushels an hour. But four days have baen lost during this time. — Correspondence of th eßoston Traveller.
