BlunitipliAteftion. TO THE BURGESSES OF LIME-STREET MARD. GENTLSME THE peaed of my delegated trust as your representa,tiy4 in the Town Council is about to expire. A deputation. of your botw has-done me the honour to wait upc!narie with a view to its renewal. With pleasure I accept theininvitation and deem .t.therefore neless a privilege than a dsty to addres a few words .to you ..on the occasion. Whether they, shall be, parting words, or merely preliminary to a continuance of our connection as constituents and representative, issi question for your sole decision.. My cOnclactzs.a member of the Town C,ouncillor the .last three years, da heforeyou. It is for you to decidelhow farthat conduct has -exceeded. , or fallen short of your. expectations. But this I think may venture to say—all that,' promised, when, in compliance with a numerously-signed requisition, I placen my services .at your disposal, has been zealously and faithfully performed. What I under ook to de, if 3 on_con feiTed upon me-the honour of representing you, was simply to discharge the impofiant duties thereby devolving upon me to the best of my ability- Perhaps I may be allowed ,to add, without incurring: the charge of presumption, that even r.ur opponents and mine cannot deny that this pledge has been fully redeemed. Should there be,thowever, any doubt on this point,;lshall be happy to render .the fulleet possible account of my-steward ship, whenever and wherever the opportunity is afforded. The matters to which I alluded three years ago, when, at your request., I•.ffered myself as a candidate for your-suffrages, have certainly not diminished in importance ; narila they re quire less unremitting attention on the part of your.represen tatives. The Town Dues question has been settled, 'f notexactly as we could have wished,. and as justice demanded, still ina man ner far short of absolute confiscation. The part d took in effecting a compnemise, when nothing less than such spoliation was sought by some Of our envious opponents in the neigh bouring towns, is known. to you all. For property held by as good a right as that on which-some of our assailants enjoytheir private estateswe have obtained some com peneation, though by no means an equivalent. Thisquestion having been thus settled, it seems to me a matter worthy or consideration, whether we should not now endeavour to rome,tnsome similar arrangement with re spect to the River Weaver Tolls, which are so heavy a burden on one important branch ,of the trade of Liverpool. These Tolls are far in excess •of what is necessary to maintain the navigation, and the -surplus is applied to county ,purposes. This may be a very convenient arrangement for Cheshire landed proprietors, who-seldom have to pay a county-rate of • more than a penny in the pound, but it is not exaetlydn,confor- Imity with the principle on which they assailed the Liverpool Town Dues. . The precise information !relative to the Corporate Estate, -ordered to be furnished on the motion of Mr. Robertson Glad stone, of the non-complimme with which order, afters lapse of twelve months, I complained three years ago, has not yet been supplied. It is most isnpontant that, wherever the hitch lies, and whatever may be the anottve for withholding it, this infor .mation should be forthcoming; and should you again .return ma to the Council, I will continue to use my best exertions to ordain it. lI have• endeavoured, as rou are aware, to prevent the adop tion of a new mode of disposing of Corporate property, which consider most unjust to the present ratepayers, since it inflicts upon them increased taxation for the benefit pos terity entirely uncalled for; and, failing in this attempt, at lmstito insure publicity and fair competition on all occasions of sale or lease, so as to obtain the best possible terms for the public, and prevent even the suspicion of collusion and jobbery. The importance of this question can hardly be over-rated. With proper administration of the Corporate Estate, annually increasing in value, and judicious economy in expenditure, I believe there will be no necessity for a borough rate ; but that, otherwise, it will be unavoidable. Although a complete . ..separation between the Corporate and Dock Estates has been effected, the interests of the two are, said must ever be, so interwoven, that a member of the Town Council, anxious to do his duty, will always have to keep a watchful eye on the proceedings of the Dock Board ; and the =Council-Chamber is certainly the plate in which be should direct the public attention to these proceedings whenever he considers it necessary . so to do. And this duty has become all the more important since the transfer of its jurisdiction from the Corporation to a body of gentlemen, many of whom have no interest in.the permanent welfare of either estate. The time may not be far distant when some determined. stand against the extravagant expenditure of a body so con stituted will be necessary, and especially on the part of the owners of fixed property, who are the persons most interested in the proper . management of the Dock Estate. Should such necessity arise, I trust that I shall never be felind wanting, either as your representative, or, if that honour be denied me, as a simple member of this great community very largely in terested in its welfare. Being firmly convinced, after much inquiry and serious resection, that the rating of the Dock Estate, and all other public property, towards the support of the poor, is a measure recommendgcl not less by its justice than by its expediency, need hardly assurc you that I shall persevere in the use of my best efforts to accomplish that object, in whatever way they may seem to be most likely to be available. In conclusion, gentlemen, I venture to hope that no further exposition of my sentiments or intentions will be deemed neces sary from me in this address. At your Ward Meetings, I shall be happy to afford any other explanation which may be required. For the present, therefore, I will only say that what you have found me the past, you will,..if you think tit to renew my trusteeship, find me in the future,—a zealsus and painstak ing friend and advocate of every measure calculated, in my judgment, to promote the prosperity of the town and port, and the general wellbeing of the inhabitants. I have the honour to-be, gentlemen, yours, very respectfully, JAS. R. JEFFERY. Compton-house, October 3, 1869. TO THE BURGESSES OF VAUXHALL WARD. HAVING been waited upon by a large and influential Deputation of your body with a Requisition vei., numerously signed, inviting me again to become a Candidate to represent your Ward in the Town Council, I acceded to the request, and at once placed my services at your disposal. During the time which I have had the honour of represent ing your interests, I have carefully watched every movement made, which had for its object the better government of the Corporate Estate,—the reformof every system of management not based on sound and satisfactory principles ; and I have endeavoured to promote and further every useful measure cal culated to increase our Corporate revenue, in order that such improvements as are really necessary to meet the growing wants of our largely-increasing trade might be effectually carried out. That great and important improvements are required, not only in this Ward, but throughout the town generally, must be self-evident. In resigning my trust into your hands, I can with confidence refer to my past conduct as a p roo f that I have not been influenced by any party feeling, but solely actuated, in the discharge of my onerous duties, through a desire to maintain, in their fullest integrity, the rights of my consti tuents. Should you again place me in the proul position which I have heretofore held, I will endeavour steadfastly to pursue that course of procedure which has given so much satisfaction to you, and whit'•:, by your desire, I wish fully to maintain, and carry out judiciously all the necessary requirements of the ratepayers. I have the honour to be, gentlemen, your faithful and obe dient servant, JOHN SHIMMIN. 150, Islington, Liverpool, Ist OctAier, 1859. TO THE BURGESSES' OF ST.

The annual wreck register, drawn up by the Board of Trade, contains this year, as usual, a large number of highly interesting statistics. At the outset, it is satis factory to find that 1,555 lives were rescued in 1858 by lifeboats, other boats, and ships, and by the rocket and mortar apparatus, and that out of 1,895 lives in equal peril from shipwreck, 340 only were lost. This number is still too large, and it must not be forgotten that the average number of lives lost during the past seven years, including the number in 1858, is 745. The number of wrecks se em stthcs t i O have xor be number ,seveonf e been a r ab s o_ut the collisions 3o ls . aTo r v a e g t P h . e na a m ve e r l a y ge , B o 6 f 97 th w e hi l l a e 172 vessels were lost from stress of weather, 58 from de fects in ships or equipments,; including charts and com passes; and 69 from vaaious other oauses, more or less avoidable. 10,902 persons have been saved from shipwreck by lifeboats and other means since the establishment of the National Life Boat Institution ; £28,061 have been ex pended by it on lifeboat establishments; and £11,671, besides gold and silver medals, for saving life, have been voted. Many new lifeboats are yet needed on the coast. On the coast of Scotland there is a sad want of life boats. It is along this coast a large portion of our trade with the Baltic, Greenland. Archangel, Davis's Straits, and much of that of the Canadian and United States trade is carried on. In addition to this traffic, the Scotch coast is remarkable for its great herring fishery. Peterhead has its 250 fishing boats ; Fraserburgh and Buckie more than 400 sail ; while further north, off the coast of Caithness, more than 1,200 fishing boats, manned by 6,000 persons, nightly pursue their calling during the season, exposed to the proverbial sudden ness of a north-east gale. About two years'alo, during a fearful gale of wind, of a fleet of such boats five were lost, from which 42 men were drowned, leaving 27 widows and 79 orphans unprovided for. Since .then calamities to Scotch fishermen nearly equal in magni tude have occurred. Within the last two or three months, the• National Lifeboat Institution has made an urgent appeal to the Scotch people generally for as sistance, to station additional lifeboats on their coast; but that appeal has met with but little response from them. The following table shows the loss of vessels on dif ferent parts of the coast : _ Vessels. East Coast—Dungeness to Pentland Frith .. 514 West Coast—Land's End to Greenock .. 304 South Coast—Land's End to Dungeness . 89, Irish Coast .. 168 Scilly Islands .. .. 14 Lundy Island . . .. 15 Isle of Man .. 6 Northern Isles, Orkney, .&c. .. 60 1,170 A large number of the vessels lost were under 50 tons burden-199 out of the whole I,l7o—but the class of vessels whose tonnage is between 100 and 300 tons has suffered most, 467 vessels of the former having been lost. 352 vessels between 50 and 100 tons were also lost ; 96 between 300 and 600 ; 28 between 600 and 900 ; .23 between 900 And 1,200 ; and 5 above the last named tonnage. THE CARLISLE ATHEN,EUM.—Yesterday (Monday), Lord Brougham attended a meeting of the Diocesan Education Society at Carlisle. A ministeriale from the Ministry of Police at Naples informs the director of finance that in-the French bazaar of Carlo Ross, in the Toledo, buttons for shirts are sold with the likenesses of Garibaldi and Victor Emmanuel ; and the director is begged to be vigilant lest objects with seditious and criminal designs should be introduced into the kingdom. RACES AT MILAN.—The day before yesterday (the 10th) the long-expected races took place on an open and uncultivated spot about eight miles from the town, com manding a fine view of the Alps. The King, who had arrived the day before at Monza, honoured them with his presence. For anyone who has seen English racing, the exhibition would have been too little animated and noisy ; but, considering that horse-racing is in its infancy here, this being the second year, the sport went off very well. A tribune had been erected for the King; a band and the National Guard of the neighbourhood were in attendance. There was a fair exhibition of the aristocracy, many of the members of which had come to town on purpose for the races, and who had taken their places with their carriages on both sides of the stands reserved for the members ; but the most astonishing thing was the quantity of country folk which flocked there from all quietly enough, mast sides, and, above all, women with their uniform dark too off 'intent 'with gazing at red dresses , and their handkerchiefs on their heads. o The h arri val the preparations, • but there was a good deal of cheering when he left.—Letter from Milan.- voalwd ) ofb ettegKin probably passed AN ADMIRALTY TEST OF THE GREAT EASTERN.:- -~;.~-~ The Admiralty give us two formulae by which they; test the relative merits of steamships—the former in— volving the speed, midship section, and indicated power ;, the latter involving the weight instead of the midship section. To apply these tests to the Great Eastern we require, of course, to have her indicated power, midship section, and weight, and these we are able to supply wilt , .a sufficiently near approximation. to . the truth. for our present purpose. Before leaving , the ship we ascertained that the total indicated power, developed when.the engines did their best, was about 7,200, horse power. W' e have further found, by approximate calculations. that with the draught of water with which the ship left Portland (25_ feet aft, 21 feet forward,nean 21, feet) her midship section must have been about 1,600 square. Further, her weight must have been at least between 17,000 and 18,000 tons—say 17,500 tons.. We know that this must be near the weight, and, at any rate, cannot be in excess of it, because the mere iron in the hull weighs 8,000 tons, the engines and boilers about 2,000' tons (reckoning the weight. three-fourths of _ a ton per nominal horse power), and. there were 6,000 tons of coals on board —in all 16,000. tons. 'Th f ' this we add 1,500 tons only for the weigh t woe iwork, masts, spars, and rigging, paddle wheels an screw, water i.i boilers, and everything else on board, which certainly cannot weigh less than that amo unt. Taking, then, these quantites—the speed fifteen nk e the midship section 1,600 square feet, the disP lac ment 17,500 tons —and substituting , them i n the two Admiralty formulai successively, we get for til,e Great Eastern's characteristic numbers. 750 and 31° respectively. Now, none of the Admiralty vessels reac h suck numbers as these. We have the Agamemnon giving 664, the Miranda 680, the Tribune-686, the perate 627, the St. Jean d'Acre 731, the Princess Rol' nearly 725, and the Cruiser nearly 728, by the first for mula ; and we have the St. Jean d'Acre giving 201, th Tribune 202, the Princess Royal 203, the Cruiser 2 20 '" the Desperate 224, the Simoom 240, and the Miranda u ° , less than 247 by the second formula • but the very be s of these fall, as will be seen, considerably short of ~." Great Eastern's numbers in both cases.—lfechan ics allagazing. ♦ HOLLOWAY'S PlLLS.—lmpurity and impoverishment of th e blood.

EXTRAORDINARY DISCOVERY OF SHAKES.—At lin ttr o i ton-on-the-Water, a few days since, in the absenc e 0 . Mr. and Mrs. Powell and family; of Cold Aston, 1 1,4 had left home to enjoy the sea breeze, the lobo ul a engaged on the farm, while removing a heap of manei: were astonished to find a large quantity of snakes lit 0. They succeeded in killing no less than seventy. ~I % t supposed that the mildness of the season, and the iL e- 0 of the manure, caused so many to generate in so shn, rt h i time, the heap not being of more than a six einr'' collection.

He announced that he would fi rst out Maidjan Peek to a French company, an d oe Servia would find six French vessels on the Do id quite enough. He then left the hall with his son s'" the most enthusiastic cheers." SPANISH CHIVALRY.—A Madrid letter, in the " 1 4 sels Independance, says :—" Fifty or sixty persons, ,;er for the purpose, and placed in little groups in the 'l e r, galleries, have renewed, in a more scandalous motes• during a second representation of Norma, the 7no which occurred in the first representation.
