TO THE ELECTORS OF LIME STREET WARD. GENTLEMEN, llAVlNsigned G received a REQUISITION, by upwards of 300 of your body, in the unprece dented she rt 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 r OUNCIL, I am induced at once to accede to the request so made, and to place my services at your 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 "'"easlue c mmerce and populal , n, to the increased responsibility d volving upon the Corporate Exchequer, from the purchase of the I.iritenhead Docks; or, to the envy which our deserved success apr n ear a * unfortunately, to have created elsewhere. my opinion, our Town Dues have been most unfairly and unjustly attacked, and the attempt which has been made to confis cate such property, W h en h . when by Corporations, and yet to maintain the same title as sacred n• t only absnrd, but elheld by private individuals, appears W me iniquitous. Gentlemen, the trade of the port must necessarily at PaYers , !_fAs K-- e " first cons.d r ti m a e ons, and, to give every possible demand her rs com e facility to our rapidly g"wlunneceers commerce, iseiobviously our first duty. To this of our DOCkl should be end, 1 consider that avoided, and that the inland rY conC n ertra tle ti n o i l of these should be our tudy. Council, I will endeavour ascertain, with as If elected to the the Corporate constitutes wh at improved revenue ; for ideem it to be a little delay as possible , It is that cons Estate, with a view to its an in the Council that our Cb " tbe r deplorable fact, that no one ge ntlem pos sesses this knowledge; o this sublece " r th -. ,,.in are our ear o nor does it app *Metals are any better informed u p o Councillors and Aldermen themselves, as i''proved by th e for this dien a " stance, that Mr. Robertson Gladstone moved i n formation more than twelve months ago, and it is not ye t forthcoming. I have been no Inconsiderable Ratepayer in your Ward for nea rly .. a quarter of a century ; y our interests and mine, therefore , Rate payers, must necessarily be identical. On se,eral occasions you have expressed a wish that I should represent you in the Town ^ouncil • bat hitherto I have con sidaed_,. the t me th it was at my disposal insufficient for the faithful Lus a irre of duties so or truss and responsible, and have telt con st-ained to decline that ho .our. Now, however, if it is your plea sure to elect me, on the I , t November next, to serve as one of your Representatives, I shall he proud to undertake the duties which the office will impose upon me, and to discharge them to the test duly abuty.--I am, gentlemen, yours respectfully. ableiSitS R. ;EFFERY.

JOHN LONGTONG CIE'S ADDRESS TO THE ELECTORS OF EVERTON AND KIRKDA LE WARD To Everton and Kirkdale Ward, John Longtongue would present his card, And state his claims to ask your vote, Such earnest claims you all must note. Were "inclination" now my guide, And feeling only could decide ; The honour I should fain decline, Nor strive in Council e'er to shine. But I perceive this " document Has been drawn up, and kindly sent By men of various views, and grades, " Merging all minor points, and shades," When I consider aa the " ties," And where our strong connection lies ; There is a duty you will think, From which I cannot, must not shrink ; And so my feelings I ignore, And maki es very bard But much risk to gain your Ward. For " thirty years" I've been at work, And nothing did I ever shirk; Nothing have I e'er yet wrtstood, To work John Longtongue's worldly good. For " thirty years" you've known me well, And those who know me best can tell, How keenly for »wolf I've fought, How little for my friends have thought. One golden rule has been my guide, Get money, let what may betide : And now all vain excuse to shun, I'll tell you plainly what I've done, Once on a time when freights were low, And ships, and charters, seemed "no go." When Brokerage was but a name, And Longtongue all unknown to fame, There came a man of noble mind, Of truth, and honour well refined. On our Exchange he took his stand, Midst merchants known in every land, The men who boast their flag is shewn, Where" r the English name is known In simple, unobtrusive mood, e high-bred Edward Cardwe] There I, in hollow rage and spite, stood ; Like vipers when the file they bite, Offered a public outrage where To avenge the blow he might not dare ; I called him •' scoundrel," "liar," " thief," And more that passes my belief, And like a coward in his face, Shook this foul hand to my disgrace. Like one of nature's nobles born, He only looked in withering scorn. There yet remains one other claim, To add a lustre to my name ; I who can boast, as now appears, A pedigree of " hundred years," Have no ancestral sire to name, Whc might have taught me sense of shame, And made me love that moral worth Beyond all price, and pride of birth, Which gilds a gentleman's estate, A boon no wealth can e'er create. It's true my views I can't express, In decent words without a mess ; But what are speeches, mind, and thought, If once in competition brou,,ht, With one whose highest claim appears, To count his grandsire's " hundred years." I now conclude, and entertain ; No doubt your suffrages to gain; And hope you all will think me meet, To fill your vacant Council seat. Dated this day, from my abode, Rich-man's Villa, in Breck-road. JOHN LON GTONO UE September, TO THE ELECTORS OF ABERCROMBY WARD , GENTLEMEN, THE period for which you did me the honour to elect me to represent your interests in the Town Council is drawing to a close. You are aware that I have always rot, rained the opinion that the choice of the Councillors of a Ward is a -natter which should rest entirely in the hands of the Electors. I should therefore. not have intr dad myself upon your notice had I not been requested to solicit your votes at the ensuing Election. The invitation was conveyed to me by a deputation from a high!y respec , able meet.ng of the Electors of the Wa• d, and in a manner se gratifying to my feeli , gs that I have great pleasure in accepting it. You have always pursued the dignified course of exacting no pledge from me on any subject whatever. I hope I have net abused the confidence you have u►aced in me. and that I may, without presumption, assume that my conduct, to a certain extent at least, has m a t your approbation, or I should not have had the flattering compl , • ant _paid to me, which is the cause of my now addressing you. In discussing the measures which have been brought before the Council. it has been my study to promote all those which arpeared to me best ca cu munity tendtnc: ed to promote t , ,e welfare of the corn oualy to oppos. all having a contrary e my conduct In tuture, f hould }ou do me me in the situation I now hold. =he Louour to rein I am, with nm^h respect, GenCeFnen Your obedi.nt humble servant. WILLIAM EARLE, Abercromby,quafe, Octrvbrrti. leg. T HIS DAY, R. J. NODDER Will respectfully offer his Selection of Parisian and English RIDING and WALKING HATS, BONNET;, and CAPS, with every description of Trimmings, Feathers, Laces, &c., of the most fashionable and tasteful kind. 81, CHURCH STREET ENLARGEMENT OF THE selves by this treaty for securing the internal peace of Italy, make it their duty to preserve their States and their respective subjects from new re-actions, and from the misfortunes arising from imprudent innovations, and it is, therefore, understood by the high contracting parties, that his Majesty the King of the Two Sicilies, on again taking into his hands the government of his kingdom, shall not make auy changes which are not in keeping with the old monarchical institutions, and with the principles adopted by his Imperial Royal Majesty in the internal government of his Italian provinces. " -In addition to the four Russian vessels of war that have arrived at Kiel, a fifth has been signalled, which will join the others. Two other men-of war have been ordered to leave Cronstadt to join this squadron, which is placed under the orders of Rear-Admiral Berens. They had taken a large quantity of coals to suffice for a long journey. NORTHERN TIMES, - The Moniteur contains the text of new con vention between France'and Belgium, lithiting the right Of the latter Obulitky to give asylum to per sons charged with certain classes of political offences. By the neW _ instrument the following additional article is incorporated with previously existing extradition treaties between the two States :—" No criminal attempt against the person of a foreign sovereign, or against the members of his family, shall be held to be a political offence, nor an incident of a political offence, when that attempt shall constitute an act of murder, assassination, or poisoning." The con vention will have the same duration as that of Nov. 22, 1834, will be in full force ten days after its publication, and the two conventions will be con sidered as simultaneously published by the publi cation of one of them. The Ministers of Justice and of Foreign Affairs are respectively charged with the execution of the decree embodying the convention referred to. BODY FOUND.—Yesterday the body of a man, apparently a sailor, was brought to the dead-house. It was picked up in the Clarence basin, and it is said death was the result of accident. His name at present is not known. _ BROUGHAM LITERARY AND DEBATING SOCIETY.—This society held their usual weekly meeting on Thursday even ing last. Mr. Chadwick occupied the chair. kir. William Bernard delivered an address on the " French Revolution of 1786." A debate ensued, and Mr. Bernard received a vote of thanks from the society. NEW POLICE SUPERINTENDENT.—Inspector Haimes was, on Saturday, appointed a superintendent of police, in the room of Mr. Brennan, who has been appointed chief clerk in the office of the Head-Constable. Both these officers are much esteemed, and have always been active and gentle manly in the discharge of their duty. nortljtra TILE QUARTER SESSIONS. —On Saturday Gilbert Henderson, Esq., Recorder, passed the following sentences : —Thomas Meddigan, 1 month's imprisonment; Mary Meddigan, 6 de; James Fitzgerald, 6 calander months' ; Janet Wilson, 9 do ; Michael Short, 4 months' ; Elizabeth Mahon, 8 do ; Jane Anderson, 4 do ; John D. Newman, 6 do. A DESPERATE RUFFIAN.—On Saturday night, police officer Williams, No. 506, was called on to arrest a man who had committed an offence in Abstinence street,: and when he came up to the fellow, he was attacked most furi ously, and knocked down, and bad his leg smashed by the ruffian, who succeeded in making his escape, MONDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1856, THE CONDUCT OF THE BRIDEWELL KEEPER.—In our paper of Wednesday last there appeared an article on the misconduct of an official of the main bridewell, named Scott. We are requested to state that the person alluded to is not Mr. John Scott, a well known detective officer, who, by some persons, has been mistaken for the party impli- cated. ST.

The first concert in connection with St. Silas's Working Mens' Association, took place on Saturday evening, at eight o'clock, in OA es'-street School Room, London Road. The room was crowded with working men and their wives, and we noticed on the platform Rev. Samuel Minton, Messrs. F. A. Clint (town councillor), M. C. Jones, Joseph White, T. Brackell, Ilenry Jackson, &c. Our distinguished townsman, William Brown, Esq., M.P. (always foremost in good works), presided, and opened the proceedings with a very instructive address, exhorting the working classes to avail themselvet• es as were held out by St. Silas's 'Working Mens' AsEociaiion. CORONER'S INLMESTS.—On Saturday, the Coroner held the following inquests:—On the body of John Jones, of Cable street. The deceased was working on board a ship at the Prince's Dock, when, by some accident, be was struck on the head by the handle of a winch, and death resulted from the injuries. Verdict, " Accidental death." —On the body of Michael Keating, a plasterer, who died in the Royal Infirmary, in consequence of injuries received by a fall from a scaffold, in Breck road, where he was at work. Verdict, " Accidental death." Mr. William Norman, the employer of deceased, has kindly promised to do something for the poor wife and children, and also to see Keating's remains decently interred at his expense. CoLLarox IN THE RIVER.—On Saturday night, as the Rose steamer was going out on her voyage to Sligo, when off the Rock-light, she came into contact with the ship Wolfscore, from Quebec, which was being tugged into port. The crash was a serious one, and the steamer suffered con siderable damage. She lost one of her paddle boxes, the: shaft being broken off, and her bulwarks were scattered or, carried away, and a large hole was made in her bow. She was quite disabled, and was towed into the Clarence-basin by the Constitution, aad remains there at present. The other vessel had her bowsprit and catheads carried away. She was towed up the river yesterday evening. The captain of the steamer, as we have heard, had one of his arms severely hurt, but this was the only accident, fortunately, that happened in the collision. MELANCHOLY AND FATAL ACCIDENT.—About half-past six en Saturday night, the 25th instant, a young man, named Richard Coxhead, son of Mrs. Coxhead, of L)diate, farmer, aged 22 years, was killed on the turnpike-road, in the township of Walton. Deceased was ridieg in Thomas Haskayne's cart on the Liverpool and Preston turnpike road on his return home, the cart of which he was the driver followed in the rear, himself having hold of his check rein, and just before he got to the Sefton Arms Hotel, his horse made a sudden spring on one side, and dragged him off the cart upon the road, the off wheel of his own cart passing over his head and injuring him so much that he died in about twenty minutes after the accident, and before Dr. Woods could be got to him: Deceased was removed to the Sefton Arms Hotel to await an inquest which will be held this day. CHARGE AGAINST A WOMAN FOR SETTING FIRE TO A HOUSE —This day Susan Doyle, an old woman, was brought up on a remaneed charge of having set fire to a house in Elden-street. The facts were these :—The house belongs to a lady who resides in Everton, and the prisoner having rented a portion of it for some time past, got into arrears for rent. She was put out of the premises, and shortly after leaving, in the evening, she was seen to get into the cellar. She remained there for some time, and was then observed to leave with a burning stick in her hand, and soon afterwards the place was found to be in a blaze. The alarm was given and the fire was got under, and subsequently the prisoner was arrested. The evidence was not considered sufficient, although Mr. Qroathwaite (the presiding magistrate) said he had no moral doubt of the prisoner's guilt, but heymust discharge her. She was set at liberty. ABSCONDING OF AN IRISH RAILWAY OFFICIAL.—Man, it is said, is an imitative animal, but, unfortunately, his pre delictions in that way are prone to evil. Snakspeare has something to the effect, that the bad deeds committed in life, remain after the actor, whilst the good ones are sure to be covered up in the coffin. Whether the conduct of the Crystal Palace " magnifo," or the example of the French railway forgers, or the renown of becoming a second Sadleir, influenced the actions of a certain Irish railway offieial, we know not. The only thing we are certain about is this—that a person connected with one of the lines of the " Sister Kingdom," has been found absent, and that his absence has led to some awkward disclosures. We have, heard, however, that the affair is more local than general as regards money matters. The missing person has been sought by a Dublin Forrester, in Liverpool, but, up to Saturday evening, the keen scent of the detective failed to come on the right trail. No calculating, however, what may he dots in twenty-four hours. LIVERPOOL PRESS ASSOCIATION.—The annual dinner of this body took place on Saturday evening, at Anderson's Hotel, Castle street. Twenty gentlemen (there were several members absent in consequence of business) sat down to an excellent and varied repast, which was served in the best style of the establishment. Mr. A. C. Baker, the chair man of the association, presided, and Mr. S. J. Meaney, the vice-chairman, took the opposite chair. The usual- loyal toasts were given, after which success to the association was proposed and duly honoured. The healtbs of the officers a tt e s p a p r a l pleasing n a g t and committee of the body were given , and responded to amid applause. The society, it appears , is in a he a lthy condition, and increasing in numbers. The evening was spent in the most agreeable manner , and several excellent songs were given, and altogether the re-pinion str and appreciated by all present. The company half. past ten o'clock, according to their rule, having spent a truly agreeable and intellectual evening. THE NORTHERN TIMES.---LIVERPOOL, MOND MONETARY AND COMMEN LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY E‘ ENING Cotton still continues in strong demand, both speculators and spinners operating for a further rise. To-day the sales reached 10,000 bales, and of this quantity no less than 4.000 were taken for speculation and export. Further advices from the United States, respecting the growing crop, per the steam-ship Africa, are anxiously awaited ; and, no doubt, they will have considerable influence upon the trade next week, which are just now anticipating a much higher range of prices. To-day the Liverpool Share Market opened with steadiness ; the sales were not extensive, but towards the close of business, if any change was perceptible, it was for the better. Subjoined are the closing rates of the day :—Aberdeen, 12 121. Chester and Birken head, 15 1 151 Citledonian, 27 7-16 271. Chester and Holyhead, .10 161. Eastern Counties, 97 16 91.

Monetary affairs, both here and in London, have undergone no change during the last few days Stringency in discount accommodation continues, and no further steps appear to have been taken by the Bank of England to check the efflux of gold, those already adopted having, to a great degree, achieved the desired effect. The late arrivals from America and Australia have been sufficient to supply the current demand for export, and if other vessels should be reported, their specie freights will, no doubt, be readily secured for shipment to France and other parts of the Continent. The late speculation in mone tary and commercial circles on the Continent has already began to subside, hut not without leaving certain injurious results. From the highest to the lowest it appears that all the different classes are involved, and even public functionaries are known to have exhausted their own means as well as those of friends which they have raised in con nection with the position they enjoy. On the London Stock Exchange to-day, as usual at the close of the week, very little support was given to the public funds, and taking into account the unfavourable returns of the Bank of England, it is rather surprising that prices were remarkably well sustained. The fact is, however, most parties are confident the next weekly balance sheet will be more encouraging, as the demand for money is not quite so active as it was, and very little bullion has been withdrawn from the Bank. Consols for Transfer were dull at 92-1 all day. For Account they were 92* - 4 - 4 , then 921 at which they officially closed, and subsequently 921 sellers. The New Three per Cents. were 911 to 92-A--, and the Reduced 911 A. Exchequer Bills were 2s to 6s pram; the Bonds. 981 ; and East India bonds Os prem. India stock, 2261.

The imports of specie this week were by the Alhambra from the Mediterranean, 3,650/ ; the Canada from New York, 357,877 dols, or 107,7561; the Washington from New York, 30,000/ ; the Orinoco from the West Indies, 1 ; 060,353 dols, or 212,0001; the Colombo from Alexandria, 1,9001; the Ravensbourne from Antwerp, 31 bags 12 cases of bullion ; the Telegraph from Antwerp, 3 cases of bullion ; the Baltic from New York, 500,000 dols, or 100,0001; the Siene from Boulogne, 2 cases of silver ; the Baron Osy from Antwerp, 28 cases 1 hag of bullion ; the Madrid from the Mediterranean, 3,3371 ; amounting in all, exclusive of packages, to 454,9931. The exports of specie during the week were by the Indus for Alexandria and the East Indies, 502,0911, of which 8,9801 was in gold, and the rest silver divided was follows :—Gold to Alexandria, 1,8001; Ceylon, 5,300/ ; Madras, 1,8801; silver to Bombay, 193,9811; Madras, 10,1401; and Calcutta, 288,9901; the Atrato for the West Indies, 1,2001; the Euxine for the Mediterranean, 16,3001; making a total of 519,591/. The Mining Journal of to-day furnishes us with the following intelligence : The Mining Market has continued in rather an inactive state this week, and we have not much to report in - the way of change in prices, or in the amount of business transacted. Great South Tolgus shares have been those mostly in demand, and the price has risen from 12i to 141. Great Alfreds did not maintain the price at which they left off on the account day last week; they opened on Monday at 9 to 9t, but at the latter part of the week became firmer, and closed at 9i to 10; Sortridge have kept at about 3, 36, 31, Copper Hill shares have advanced to 180 ; this mine is looking well, and a pitch in the 60 west is reported as worth £9O per fm., and not more than 25 fms. from East. Basset, shares in which have been done as high as 48. Alfred Consols opened at 15, sellers, and remained for some days flat, but a reported im provement on Wednesday caused rather a demand, and they reached 15k, 16. 161, leaving eff at 16 ; West Basset, 31. North Basset, 36 ex div ; at the meeting, the dividend declared was £4,800 (165 per share) ; the mine is looking well, and a better dividend anticipated next time ; the stones in the back of the 62 are worth £2OO per tm. North Robert, 25 to 251 • the mine has b een i nspecte d by Captain Richards, of Great Devon Consols, who estimates the ore in reserve at 2,000 tons • the cross-cut in the 42, from trial shaft, has seven lathoms to be driven before reaching the lode which has been so productive in the south mine.

Manches ter advices of to-day inform us that the market there sympathises with that of raw cotton only to a limited extent, so that producers find it extremely difficult to force up prices. Even where they are successful, the still greater rise in the value of cotton leaves them in a worse position than they occupied before, and with more disheartening prospects to look forward to. In yarns there is rather more disposition to do business, and buyers exhibit more confidence, and would operate willingly and largely at the full prices of last week. In cloth the demand is rather better, and at last week's prices buyers are willing to operate, and a fractional advance they are ready occasionally to pay; but manufacturers are compelled, by the rise in cotton, to insist on a real advance, which has tended greatly to restrict operations. From Leicester, we learn that there is. no material change in the trade of that district, the various branches continuing much the same as last reported. Wools and yarns are said to remain firm. The lace trade at Nottingham is quiet, the home demand being limited. There is no doubt a large amount of business of various kinds doing, but we cannot but keep in mind that it requires an immense demand to keep all parties engaged who are now connected with this business. We understand that there is less enquiry for some qualities of plain nets, though the coarse are as much in requisition as ever, and that there is more doing in certain classe of fancy nets, which have, until the last few weeks, been but very little in demand. There is also a large business 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 already received, avail themselves 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 38s. per annum, NORTHERN DAILY TIMES OFFICE, 19, South John Street. THE DAYS NEWS Mr. Braithwaite Poule has addressed a circular to the Goods' Managers of the 64 Railway Com panies associated in the Clearing House, Lon. don, on the occasion of his resigning the chair manship of that association, consequent upon his leaving the employment of the London and North Western Railway. The circular in question con tains the letter cf the Secretary of the London and North Western Company, accompanied by a minute of the confirmation of Mr. Poole's dismissal. The Board condemns the conduct of Mr. Poole with regard to Wm. Parsonage's trial; and, considering that such conduct was calculated to destroy all confidence in a servant occupying such an im portant and confidential position, regret to be obliged to dispense with his further services. To this communication he replies by questioning the justice of such a sentence, and refers, in vindica tion of his conduct, to the special committee of the London and North Western Directors, appointed to investigate the Waterloo and Wapping Sta tions. by whom he was exonerated from all blame. He admits that not answering the subpoena on Parsonage's trial was an error, but that, he contends, was only an error of judgment, and not of inclination, and should not have met with such severe punishment. Tor his hasty removal from his situation he claims the usual notice, or an equiva lent in money. The circular then concludes by a reference to the Goods Managers' Association, the length of time he has been connected with it, and then appeals to the members to say,. whether he ever did or said anything that would warrant them to impute to him dishonest or dishonourable motives, he concludes by expressing an earnest desire for the prosperity of an association over which he presided for so many years. A considerate perusal of the entire circular leads one to think that the directors acted with undue precipitancy in the matter, or, at all events, presuming that Mr. Poole was culpable of a minor offence in neg lecting to appear at Parsonage's trial, the punishment is not commensurate with the alleged dereliction of duty. Mr. Poole has laboured long and earnestly on behalf of the best interests of the London and North Western Company. He tells the Directors that, for seventeen years, he has devoted all the energies of his body and mind on their behalf, and he feels that his dismissal for the offence alleged, is not only unreasonable and unjust, but a poor recompense for all the exertions which he has made during a long series of years, to prove himself an energetic, industrious, intelligent, and strictly faithful officer. We are truly sorry for the denouement, and hope that, ere long, a suitable field will open up whereby all the qualities he possesses, and which have rendered him the most renowned of railway officials, in this or any other country, will be called into active and energetic play. According to advices received from a Wrexham correspondent, we learn that, after twenty-four days and nights pumping the Bryan Mally coal works have been cleared of water. As soon as this became known, great excitement prevailed in the town of Wrexham and surrounding neighbourhoods. News reached Wrexham on Friday evening that the body of Ishmael Griffiths had been found. After fur ther search the bodies of Edmund Hannah, aged 26, and Stephen Davies, 28, each of whom leaves a wife and one child ; also Stephen Parry, a youth of 15. These bodies presented a shocking spectacle, and were only recognised by their dress. An inquest is to be commenced to-day, which will be adjourned. The enquiry will, it is said, occupy several days. A public meeting has been held at Wrexham for the purpose of raising subscriptions in aid of the sufferers. Already Xl.OOO has been raised for this purpose. The letter of our Paris correspondent contains an important announcement respecting the re marks of some of the English papers on the conduct of the French Government. The Moniteur has just published the correspon dence between Count Walewski and M. Brenier on the subject of Naples. The last despatch addressed to the latter terminates with the follow ing words:--" You will, therefore, M. le Baron, have the kindness, on receipt of this despatch, to take the necessary steps to leave Naples with all the members of your Legation. Similar instruc tions have been sent to the English embassy. You will band over the archives of the Legation to the Consul of his Imperial Majesty. More over, and to provide eventually efficacious protection to French subjects residing in the kingdom of the Two Sicilies, a French squadron will be kept in readiness at Toulon, where it will be within reach to receive the orders that it might be found requisite to transmit in case it should become necessary to entrust to it, in the interest of our.fel low-subjects, the care of supplying the deficiency cau sed by the absence of official protection. To be prepared at the proper moment for such an eventu ality, the commander of this squadron has instruc tions to send occasionally one of the vessels placed under his orders to visit the ports of Naples and Sicily, when the captain of such vessel will place himself in communication with our Consuls. With a similar object in view, it is the intention of her Britannic Majesty to station a squadron in the port of Malta." The Spanish Government order to deliver pass ports to Spanish refugees in foreign countries is to include all Carlists who will recognise the existing Government The Government papers pretend that the Cortes will shortly be assembled, and that " excellent measures" will be submitted to them. The Frankfort Post Zeitung lately stated that " Naples was hound by treaty not to establish any institution similar to the Spanish Cortes." The Leipsic Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung denied the statement, and the Post Zeitung replies by publish ing the subjoined important document, which is the secret article of a treaty concluded between Austria and Naples on the 12th ofJune,lBls:—"The obligations which their majesties take upon them- AY doing in bugle laces and edgings. Yarns appear likely to maintain their price, or go even a little higher. Silk it is impossible to form any opinion about ; it is at an enormous price at present. There is a fair demand for hosiery, both for home and shipping. The Amurican orders, although not so large as last year, are very general, and machinery is well employed. The upward tendency of the wool market has given firmness to the prices of yarns, and consequently to goods ; and parties who have been holding off for lower rates are now dis posed to operate, as there is more confidence in the stability of prices. From Leeds we have the following report :—" Trade has been quiet during the week, particularly at the commencement ; sub sequently, a rather improved feeling manifested itself, but sales were confined to present require ments. The hardware trade of Birmingham con tinues in a healthy state. The factors' orders are remarkably good from all parts of the country. Accounts from the district as to the condition of the manufacturing trades in that quarter are equally satisfactory. We are reqUested to state that the City of Glasgow Bank has not a branch at Coupar-Angus ; as reported in connection with a charge of forgery against a bank agent there. THE PEOPLES' SATURDAY EVENING CONCERTS, ST. GEORGE'S HALL. The fourth of these popular entertainments took place on Saturday night, in S. Ge , rge's Hall, and we feel gratifica tion at being able, with justice, to speak of it in the same terms of praise in which we have noticed the preceding concerts. The programme was again well chosen and attractive, comprising, in addition to several popular melo dies, no less than three pieces on the grand organ. These were " Grand March (II Pirate)," Bellini ; the " Overture to•Masaniello," &c., and had the entertainment been confined sold v to them, no one acquainted with their glorious mole y ,vill deny but that it would have been value twice over for the small sum for which the entree is secured. The vocalists were Mrs. Morgan, Miss Wiatt, Madame Coral, Mr. D. iranda, and Mr. Tempest. It is unnecessary that we should enter into any lengthened notice of their efforts, all, with the exception of Mr. Miranda, being already well known to the concertgoing public of Liverpool. Of him we may be allowed to say something, and we shall do so briefly, because, in speaking of his performance, we can apply to it every term of commendation. Mr. Miranda has long attained the pcsition of a favourite with the Lon don public, but Saturday night was his first appearance before the patrons of the St. George's Hall Concerts. He possesses a tenor voice of power, sweetness, and flexibility, and enhances these qualities still more by a clear, distinct articulation—every word in his vocalisation being as plainly heard as if declaimed. He was effective in all his songs, but his singing of "The Bay of Biscay" was such as to elicit from the audience enthusiastic applause. Mr. Tempest, too, male also a successful debut at these concerts. We need scarcely say that he is an accomplished member of the Theatre Royal Company, and that his presence at the St. George's Hall Concerts is as strong a proof as Mr. Copeland could afford of his desire to promote all rational amusement for " the million." He not only ably caters for them at his well supported establishments, but has the manliness to contribute aid towards what some might consider competing amusements. There is, however, "room enough for all," end no man suffers by a well directed liberality. Of Madame Correlli, Mrs. Morgan, and Miss Wiatt we have already spoken in terms of commendation in these columns ; and we shall, therefore, merely say here that, on Saturday night, they fully sustained their well earned reputation. We regret to learn that, although the attendance at these entertainments have been fully commensurate with the expectations of Mr. Reynolds, yet the numerous and heavy expenditure attendant on the Hall, &c., have at present entailed a loss on the manager. We hope, for the sake of our town, that this will not continue to be, for a more bold and deserving undertaking it has never been our task to chronicle. THE LIVEROOL TOWN DUES (From Yesterday's Observer.) The question of the shipping tolls levied by the corpo rations of many of our seaport towns, and expended for their own local purposes, although exacted from the commerce of the country, cannot remain in abeyance. A Mile more promptitude on the part of the people of Man chester in their protest against the tax levied upon their industry by these tolls for the adornment of the town of Liverpool, might have enabled the Government to carry through the measure introduced last session. The com mittee to which the subject was referred abstained from making any recommendation, but the evkleuuu rney navo published is sufficient to condemn the exactions which it was the object of that measure to put an end to. The shipping dues are doomed, with all their concomitant vexations. There are cases, no doubt, where the revenues derivable from these tolls have been mortgaged for the purpose of raising sums which have been expended in im proving the navigation and constructing works useful to the shipping frequenting the respective ports. That is a kind of vested interest which may be fairly respected, and it is not likely there would be any difficulty in obtaining the assent of Parliament to a measure of compensation from the Consolidated Fund. But no good plea can be urged against the unreserved abolition of passing tolls, and of tolls expended for mere local objects entirely unconnected with the shippint , from which they are derived. The arrangement that has been effected for the discontinuance of the " Sound Dues " with the Danish Government, gives assurance that our own local imposts of the same nature cannot be allowed to continue. Hitherto, in modern times, the European Governments have submitted to the exaction of the Sound Dues from their subjects, principally out of consideration for a weak State. When, however, the Government of America refused to allow the tolls demanded on passing the Sound to be any longer exacted from the shipping of that country, it was necessary to devise some means of extinguishing them altogether. 'The question was very fairly met by the Danish Government, and the terms on which they proposed to abolish the tolls have been assented to by our own and the other principal Governments of Europe. Denmark relinquishes the dues, which formed no inconsiderable portion of her revenue, on terms which must be considered liberal on her part. For example, the dues paid by British shipping amounted to z . 70,a10 per annum. The dues are to be capitalised, and the capital sum paid to Denmark 'by England, will repre sent at the current interest a sum of £45,000 per annum. The arrangement of this question will naturally cause a still greater disinclination to tolerate the continuance of our own local imposts. Where there are vested interests of the nature we have alluded to, such as mortgage bonds the proceeds of which have been applied to any works from which the shipping charged with the tolls derive advantage, such cases will no doubt receive the consideration they are entitled to. There may be other cases in which a reasonable ground for a compromise— by granting a moderate compensation—may be shown. No doubt, in any fresh measure on the subject, all these circumstances will be sufficiently provided for, but the duration of the tolls themselves, which are opposed to the spirit of the times in which we live, is near its end. A MAN KILLED AT HALE-LAST NIGHT, We regret to state that, last evening, about seven o'clock, an accident of a melancholy and awfully fatal character took place at Hale. It appears that a party of persons from Liverpool had been out in that direction spending the day, and at the time specified were on their return to town in a cab, No. 272, owned by Mr: Frederick Storer, of Ashton street, Toxteth-park. When about half a mile from the village of Hale, the cabman, who, it is alleged, was intoxicated, so carelessly drove his vehicle that he was thrown from his box, and Cie car, passing on some 150 yards, came in contact with a heap of manure, lying on the left side of the road, and gave several heavy jolts, the concussion from which was so severe., that one of the party inside was thrown with .his head outside the carriage window, immediately after which the car overturned and fell upon the unfortunate victim, breaking hi 3 neck by the fall. An alarm was instantly given, and Dr. Allen, of H de, was called out, and he was immediately at the scene of the disaster, but found that life was extinct ; to -? part which joins the neck to tne backbone being literally severed in two. The remains of the unfortunate man were subsequently conveyed to the Childe of Hale Hotel, to await the coroner's inquest this day. Upon in quiry we find that the deceased young man was a carpenter by trade, but his name has not yet transpired. Through the activi'y of Mr. George Walker, of Brunswick buildings, the cabman has been placed in the hands of justice to account for the melancholy occurrence. It appears that air Walker had been spending the afternoon at the residence of A. Dwerry house, Esq., of Hale, and accompanied Dr. Allen to the scene of the accident. Finding that the cabman had proceeded on, Mr. Walker, at the request of Mr. Nickson, steward of John Ireland Blackburne, Esq., made enquiries along the way from Hale to Liverpool, respecting the cabman. When he arrived at Mill-street, Mr Walker got to learn that the driver had been seen in the vicinity a short time previous. Mr. Walker continued his seareb, and ultimately ar res t e d the driver,—after tnking him along some distan ce , h an d ed him over to inspector Kelsey, who at once proceed ed to convey him to the Aigbnrth lock-up to await the c,roner's enquiry. Wo are also informed that the deceased bas left a young wife and two children, who were in another conveyance behind at the time of the accident, but passed on without getting informed of her melancholy loss.
