Our sympathies are in favour of the Bala Lake Scheme alt T er i al 7 ::::::T ad s ß: tr n fwu ll ei as likely to be the simplest in practise, the best adapted for the increasing demands of a growing population, and, the least liable to obstructive interference from interme diate claims and interested obstacles. Parliamentary op position less dogged and less selfish is certain, than would greet the Town Council if they sanction-the Bolton plan, though it would be folly to expect there would be no op position. These are a few of the reasons which may be suggested as sufficient to justify a larger present expendi ture in the one case than would be necessary in the other; and when to them is added the further fact that from one source the supply is inexhaustible and the other limited, it is obviously a most mistaken policy not to select the Bala Lake scheme, merely because it is open to one ad verse observation. The Parliamentry notices, however, must appear in a few days; and without engaging in the merely personal questions of engineers and committee, upon which the Journal has enlarged, one or two independent reasons may be urged why Mr.- Hawkesley's plan of sending us water from Bolton should not be sanctioned. In the first place this plan, as we understand it—and we believe we are right—is a somewhat improved,. and per haps enlarged, modification of one which the same Mr. Hawleesley projected for the supply of Manchester, in Oc tober, 1845, and which in July of the present year was, upon its merits, withdrawn from a• committee of the House of Commons. Whether that will suit Liverpool which was supposed to be inadequate for Manchester, we shall not determine, though we have a strong opinion upon the subject with which we need not trouble the reader now. By this plan, which is identical, nearly, with what is said ADERCROMBY WARD. to be before the committee of the Town Council, it was In this ward the candidates were Mr. Thomas Kaye, proposed to drain 4490 acres 2f a. precipitous district, the retiring Member, and Mr. Thomas Todd.

When Mr. Horsfall is Mayor, it shall not be by any " trick" or " manceu vre," resorted to in order to evade the claims of a friend. Mr. Horsfall would not thank his party for making him Mayor under such circumstances. There is a nobler game before him—one in which we may shortly have to fight. Liverpool may have to select from amongst her merchant citizens, not a Mayor, but a representative of her interest's in the legislative assembly of the nation. Here we shall have great pleasure in advocating the cause of Mr. T. B. Horsfall. Such a man need not stickle for municipal preferments. He has within him all that is required to render distinguished the cha racter of a member of a higher house than our municipal chamber; and there is not one of his fellow•townsmen who will not feel honoured in his success upon such an arena. As regards Mr. Bramley-Moore, we could almost assure him of the honour of the Mayoralty ; hut, much as we value him, we should prefer his waiting for that honour, for the sake of the benefit which we hope to derive from his set vices upon the Dock Committee. We can't afford to lose a good man at that board for the mere consideration of Mayoralty. We must not conclude without directing attention to the two wards which have to be decided to-day.

In ordinary cases this is no diffi cult matter. It is easy for any journalist, not to tally blinded by faction, to give credit where credit is due, even to a political opponent; and as we have done so in every previous instance, we shall scarcely be accused of indulging our political predilections in noticing the career of Mr. David Hodgson. From his first entrance upon the dignified office, which he is about to retire from, Mr. Hodgson has been the mark of Whig-Radical calumny and spite. His very features have been watched, and made the subject of venomous comment. His manner, his voice, his thoughts almost have begin journalized upon with a bitterness which is unaccountable,. un- genuine as LATH AM—the celebrated L , tliam—commenced his tripe suppers on Tuesday last.

He was now, however, in the position in which he should have been originally placed. Mr. W. concluded an excellent and lengthy address, by exhorting the electors to do their duty in another year as they had done on this.

Dr. Tattershall, though a forcible writer and an acute thinker, had not the ambition of appearing before the world in the professed character of an author. Never theless, the persuasion of his friends, and the desire of the public, brought him into print, though not so often as, for the cause of Christian literature and of science, iwe could have desired. Many persons must recollect the earnestness with which, in numerous speeches at the Music-hall, the. Amphitheatre, and in other places, ha defended the principle of religious education against the Irish system—a system of which we well rememoer him predicting, that it would be attended with no results commensurate with the risks of the tremendous change it involved.

IRISH SOCIETY.—The anniversary of this society will be held, we perceive, on Sunday next and following days. We are glad to find that the interest felt on behalf of this excellent society continues unabated. Its object, as our readers are aware, is to instruct the native Irish in the Scriptures in their own language; and in pursuing so desitable an object, the society has been greatly blessed. Numbers owe their knowledge of Divine Truth to the labours of this invaluable institution. For meetings and sermons, &c., we beg to direct our readers to an adver, tisement in our columns to-day. It will be observed that the sermon at St. Barnabas' for the society, to be preached by the Rev.

The first that we notice is what is called " The Bala Lake Seheme;" the collection of waters from the hills drained by the Dee a the second is to draw the supply from the mountainous district contiguous tia Bolton. _ _ _ _ We give, however, in our columns this day, what we really think is sufficient evidence to suggest to the Council the propriety of at least pausing before they take any definite step in the water question. It is clear that the Rivington Pike mode of supply must be reconsidered, and all we need say in addi tion, is to urge upon the Council the propriety of a more careful examination of our position and prospects. MUNICIPAL ELECTION-(CONTINum3.) THE LATE REV. DR. TATTERSHALL When a good man dies, we too °fled discover, for the first time, his value. If this is true abstractedly, it is certainly so in the case of the rev. gentlenian of whose career on earth we are about to attempt a humble me moir. We have had the Rev. Dr. Tattershall amongst us for many years, labouring faithfully and unostentati ously as a minister; and it is only when we are deprived of his talents and zeal, that we learn how much they have been prized both by his friends, and by those in religion and in politics opposed to him. The late Or. Tattershall was the son of a Wesleyan minister. lie was entered as a sizar at Queen's College, Cambridge, and took the degree of B.A. in 1816, standing amongst his clever competitors, Dr. Whewell, &c., as the 7th wrangler. Upon this part of his career an intimate and rev. friend thus remarks : " It was in 1814 that I first became acquainted with Dr. Tattershall. He was then an undergraduate of Queen's College, Cambridge. We frequently met at the rooms of a mutual friend. Although very young, his clas sical and mathematical attainments were considerable ; and great expectations were formed of his ultimate success, both by men of his own College, and others who had the happiness of his acquaintance. I remember on one occa sion, while breakfasting with that profound mathema tician, Dr. Milner, the Dean of Carlisle, and Master of Queen's, that my late friend became the subject of con versation. The Dean, in his characteristic manner re marked, that he was greatly mistaken, if that lad did not prove more than a match for most men of his year. Nor was he much wrong in his anticipations ;: for in the January examination of 1816 for his B. A. degree, he attained the distinguished place of seventh wrangler, when competing with et:Armen as Jacob of Caius, and Whewell of Trinity, and some others scarcely less eminent,• and was made Fellow of his College. Daring his undergraduatesbip, at least, that part of it, in which I was resident in the University,die was most regular in his attendance to all the rules ofthe College, and bore the character, not only of a moral, but of a religious young man. He never shrunk from avowing his sentiments, while - he was never offensively forward in making them known. From the liveliness of his disposition, his good-humoured affability, and his sterlinggood sense, be was a universal favorite among his friends and companions. "On leaving College, I lost sight of him until our acquaintance was renewed on his coming to Liverpool. It is well known with what ardour and enargy he entered upon his charge at St. Matthews' in Key-street ; • how soon his schools became among the largest in Liverpool, and how attached and affectionate were the congregation among whom he ministered; an attachment and affection in no way diminished by• his removal to St. Augustine's, where he closed his earthly career.

LONDON CORN EXCIIANGE.-YESTERDAIt A change of wind and more settled weather has brought $ large arrival of foreign Wheat, Barley, Oats, and Beans, and several vessels got in this morning, in addition to the reported quantity, which caused buyers at this day's market to act with more than ordinary Caution. The English supply of Wheat was only moderate, the trade opened dull, and our millers bought sparingly, but at the cose the stands were pretty well cleared at a reduction of about 2s per quarter. Free foreign Is lower, but at this decline there was a good demand for shipment to Ireland, also for barrel Flour at a proportionate reduction. English Barley 2s, foreign 2s to 3s, Malt Is lower. This large arnval of foreign Oats has greatly depressed the trade; and even at a reduction of Is per quarter Irish were neglected, and foreign only in limited request, the feeling of the dealers and consumers being that they shall shortly make their purchases on still lower terms.
