I, WEIIPOOL DOCKS • --EVASION of DOCK RATES. —The Dock Comm . ittee think it right to direct the attention of the Mercantile Public think portions of the Act of Parliament just passed (and atreacin in force) for the con solidatin of the Customs Law, whieh, among many other ID3provem en ts. they expect will effectually prevent the further evasion of Dock Rates. The 60th section with regard to ALL FREE DODDS mpoitTEn, provides that,'4` at Liverpool, the Owner, master, or and of the importing ship, or his agent, shall sign and leave with the collector- of customs., withrn fourteen da ya next after the final discharge of such g 04 3d8 1 a full and accurate list thereof, stating the if antities and distinguishing the weight and contents by meniurement: of such wei gh t any, comprised therein as shall be charge able, by or by measurement, for the freight payable thereon. and the names of the consignees (according to the bills of lading), or the •of the persons actually paying the freight, for the names m;a on failure to leave such list, such ovrwer, master, consignee, or agent shall forfeit the suM chareof .e 20." The 122 d section has reference to ALL PREE GOODS EXPORTD, and provides that, at Liverpool, the owner, terer, co.nsignee, broer, agent, or other person acting loading and clearance of the exporting a ll shall pre- Dare a full acid accurate list or manifest of all such goods. from the bills of lading and freightlist thereof, and shall sign and leave with then llector of the customs, within four teen days after such shishall have cleared outwards, a cor rect transcript of such last-mentioned list, or anifest, with the addition of the value of snch goods, if any, fla shall hare been previously chargeable with duty at value, and of British tOode, and distinguishing therein the names of the several shippers of such goods, according to the bills of tong'ladi and on failure to prepare such list or maifest, and sign and delivers uch transcript as aforesaid, such owner, charterer, tOOsignee broker, or other perso n as aforesaid shall forfeit The turn of .e'2o." The 139th section (among other things) also P r ovides for the delivery by each -shipper outwards to the agent of the ex ship, and by him to the customs, of a duplicate bill po r ting . rladina, which, in connexion with the above eactments, will render it di ffi cult and very perilous hereafter to evade Dock Dues, especially when it is known that all these provisions are in the to, and will materially facilitate the exercise of, the stringent powers Which the Dock Acts aheady give for the same purpose, under still higher penalties, and all which penalties, after this ntice, Null he strictly enforced. —By order of the Dock Committee, DANIEL MASON, Secretary , Dock-o ffi ce, 25th slugfest, 185 3 .

And most people are aware that starch made from potatoes is very weak and defi cient in body, and consequently cannot be granulated, hence follows that it is sold in a state of powder; and, from its tittracting moisture from the atmosphere, it does not retain Its stiffening qualities for any length of time, a quality for which the patentee's starch stands so unrivalled.

The deceased was the daughter of Count Bruhl„ for many years Saxon minister at this Court, and of Alicia Maria, Countess of E gremont. - _ . _ A BILL-FIGHT, it is stated in the French papers, was given on the 11th instant, at Beancaire, in the department of the Gard, in honour of the Emperor's ate. After the sports had lasted an hour and a half, a fresh bull suddenly dashed among the spectators, and tossed three men, two of whom were so severely injured that their lives are endangered. FIRE.—Ou Sunday afternoon, about'a quarter past two o'clock, a fire broke out in the Joiners' Shop of Messrs. Fawcett and Preston's Iron Foundry, Lydia Ann-street, York-street. The alarm being first conveyed to the West of England Fire Station, Mount Pleasant, the engine belonging to that company, under the superintendence of Mr. Barrett, was the first on the spot, quickly followed by the reel from Seel-street. With the joint efforts of the two brigades, the fire was prevented from spreading to the adjoining buildings. Messrs. Fawcett and Preston are insured on stock, &c., in the West of England, Royal, Imperial, and Scottish Union ; and on buildings in the Atlas. DISASTROUS STonx.—Sad havoc was occasioned among the shipping during the tremendous gale of Friday last. Between Dover and the North Foreland many casualties are reported. A number of vessels sought refuge inside the Goodwin, some with loss of spars or anchors, and cables, or other damage, by coming in collision. The French mail boat from Calais, unable to make the har bour ran for Deal, and after much difficulty landed her mail and passengers. Just below Beachy Head two large vessels were lost in mid-day. One, the Brenda, with tim ber from Quebec, had leaked considerably on the voyage, and on beating up Channel became almost waterlogged. Encountering the gale, and the crew fearing her speedy foundering, they ran her ashore in the vicinity of New haven. The coast-guard perceiving from the prodigious surf that no ordinary boat c ould exist in it, immediately resorted to the rocket apparatus, and succeeded in throw ing a line over the wreck. This communication being secured, the crew managed to reachithe shore, although in a most pitiable condition. The Australian, to Rio, from Grimsby, in anticipation of bad weather, brought up on Thursday evening, off Shoreham. There she lay exposed to the violence of the gale. Shortly after daybreak she was driven from her anchors, and cast ashore nearly abreast the coast-guard station. No time was lost in launching the life-boat, and several brave fellows volunteering to man her, she went off to the rescue of the poor crea tures on the wreck. Through a tremendous sea she gained the barque, and rescued the crew. According to the last accounts the vessel was fast going to pieces. From Teignmouth, Plymouth, and Falmouth similar in telligence as to the violence of the gale has been received. At Kimmeridge, on the Dorsetshire coast, a new life-boat, made by White, of Cowes, was driven ashore during the height of the storm on Friday morning. Nothing is known of the crew. The eastern coast felt the gale se verely, and the real extent of disasters is yet to be learned. Gn the Newcowe Sand, just abreast of Lowestoft, the Mar mion, belonging to Weymouth, was lost while on a voyage from Danzig to Gloucester, with a valuable cargo. In the same vicinity the William and Ann, belonging to Goole , was overcome by the storm, and foundered on Sizewell Bank. Many other casualties a re ann ounced to have hap- Paned on the same range of co as t. Similar boisterous weather raged on the Durham and Northumberland coasts, where the coasters had & most severe trial. REPEAL OF THE ADVERT EMENT DUTY LIVERPOOL STANDARD SCALE OF CHARGES.

A READER.—His letter shall receive attention. tibtrpool TUESDAY MORNING,.i., tUCUST 30,1853 TEM metropolitan police reports 'teemed with so many instances of brutal cruelty towards wives and helpless females, by fiends in human form that the HOME SECRETARY, deeming the law im- perative for the due protection of these hapless creatures, increased the penalty from two to six months' hard labour. For this tardy attempt at justice he received credit, and it was hoped that the terror of increased punishment would have led to the diminution of a crime so revolting to hu manity. So great is the regard, in a commercial nation like ours, for the security of property, that the law has threatened its violation with a series of severe punishments, and the abstraction of a simple article, even where destitution has prompted to the theft, subjects the offender to a lengthened incarceration, in many instances followed by trans- portation; while it is not many years since break ing into a dwelling-house by night, or taking by threats of violence on the highway, was deemed to be a capital offence, and punished with death. though not less am now sfaras le p s r s o s p an ert guina y is ---iY con ' cerned, but our O effi ur cie la n w t s refined civilisation has ignored the sanctity of Divine laws, and allowed them to be ruthlessly violated with an impunity which seeks in vain for justification or apology. A man has sworn in the sacred presence of his Maker, after the most solemn adjurations to give sanctity to the obliga tion, to love and cherish the being who has con sented to link her fate with his until death shall part them. He may treat her with undeserved neglect and cruelty, prove the tyrant in every pos sible way, reduce her from happiness to the most abject misery, and render her existence a living martyrdom, until death terminates her wretched ness and the contract she unhappily entered into ; and yet, for all this, our Act of Parliament laws hold him harmless. But he may do more than this : he may beat and kick her in the most savage manner, until her body is covered with bruises and her limbs disabled, and, if he has only just kept within the verge of killing her, the law, less re gardful of her than of the security of a pocket handkerchief, imposes on the savage brute an imprisonment of which the limit has only recently increased to six months. That the length ened period has no more efficacy than the former limited time, is shown by the daily reports of similar cases ; and attention is imperatively called to the urgent, necessity of providing some more effectual check against crimes which would dis grace the lowest horde of savages. Much of the evil arises from gratifying a sickly s entimentality and morbid philanthropy respecting the degrading influence of corporal punishments. A soldier or a seaman, for a comparatively trifling offence, may be scored by the lash of the whip, but the vile wretch who disgraces humanity by his brutal pas sions is protected from the only suffering which is intelligible to his savage na t ure. Th e m emory of JOHN HOWARD is held in veneration for his exer tions in behalf of prisoners,but, while we admire the mercy which he labou re d t o en j o i n , we may be allowed to question its wisdom or justice with re gard to the cases we allude to. A mob in South wark made a cowardly attack on an Austrian general because one of his officers, who was not glen under his controul, had submitted a female to the punishment of flogging ; an d yet, within a few hours afterwards, and withi n a few yards of the place where this ebullition of female sympathy was made, a man beat his wife so savagely that her life was despaired of, and the ruffian was with difficulty apprehended, owing to the protection afforded him by the mob. Amidst our vaunted civilisation, it is a degrading blot that such wretches should exist ; but the law, if it is to be of any value, should interpose its strong arm, or it may be that outraged humanity will supply the defect by what is known as Lynch law, and mob vengeance, roused into fury, prove the shield to helpless woman which is denied to her by our Statute-book. It is miserable trifling to talk of the degradation of the whip, when such fiends in human shape are to be its victims. The punishment of flogging may be degrading, but the offence to be punished is far more so ; and we have had an instance of its efficacy in its having been imposed as a penalty for assaults upon Her MAJESTY, who has ever since been free from such attacks. We mistake the ob ject of punishment when we limit it to mere con finement, or what is falsely called hard labour. The sentence of the law should be the terror of evil-doers, in order to deter from the commission of crime ; but this will never be the case until it is made proportionate to the offence, for many a one who has little dread of incarceration would hesitate to run the risk of the punishment being applied in the only way which he could really feel. EVER since Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S sudden fit of ultra-Protestant zeal, which evaporated in the celebrated Durham letter, the attention of the public has been more directed towards the state endowment of the Romanist college of Maynooth, and the feeling has become general that such a grant is a worse than useless expenditure of the public money. As, however, it was secured by Act of Parliament, and engagements entered into on the belief of its permanence, it was deemed that a withdrawal of the endowment, without a previous official inquiry into the disposal of it, would be a breach of public faith, unworthy of the honour of a great nation. Accordingly, a motion was made in the House of Commons, for a committee or a commission of inquiry, and a majority of our representatives was in favour of its being proceeded with ; but it had to meet the cunning of parliamentary tacticians of acknowledged expe rience in such matters, and the unscrupulous opposition of the Romish brigade, who are by no means particular as to their proceedings w hen they have a point to gain. Its supporters were lot, however, to be easily driven from their purpose Government were at last forced into the promise of appointing a Commission, and within the last few days we have the announcement of in the names of the Commissioners appointed. Alas ! for the lolly of placing any reliance upon Whig-Radical promises ! None know so well, and practice so surely, the art of keeping the word of promise to the ear and break ing it to the hope. Had the Commission been confined to the Earl of HARROWBY and the Right Hon. Sir J. PATTESON, we might have been surf of the fidelity of their report, whatever may 13( their own predilections, but they have had united with them, so that they may be out-voted by them, three colleagues, in whom the British public have not the slightest confidence. One of them, a Com missioner of the Encumbered Estates Court, is said, though a Protestant, to be favourable to the main tenance of Maynooth College, while the other two are zealous members of that heretical Church whose ill-doings are to be inquired into. It needs there- fore, no prophetic skill to foresee the result of the Commission, and the use which will be made of it. Nothing will be found objectionable, because it is the object of the inquiry to discover nothing of the kind; and though every friend of true religious liberty will feel dissatisfied, and unconvinced by the report, it will be made a stock argument to reply to every future motion for a withdrawal of the endowment. A nation, therefore, professing the pure faith of the Reformation, for the pre servation of which our ancestors suffered so much, will continue to pay towards the propagation of ;fares to be super- as some that which our constitution dec stition and idolatry It is not a questic of rival creeds, but a positive distinction between Christianity and its direct opposite ; nor are we called upon to show, in any way, the peculiar errors of that distinctive teaching which Rome falsely declares to be Catholic, for our very existence as a nation is dependent upon our denial and rejection of it. The Reformation settled the Heratior question of theological controversy ; the t . of the STUART dynasty from the male to the female line followed an attempt to revive it ; our own Sovereign holds her right to the throne upon the solemn undertaking to abjure all Romish heresy,—and while, therefore, the compact is vir tually infringed by the endowment of Maynooth, which is defended upon the miserable plea of political expediency, it is absurd folly to import into the question any arguments founded upon a defence of Romish doctrines. Some good result was at one time anticipated from an official inquiry, but it would be idle to expect it from the constitu tion of the present Commission. THE commencement of a Parliamentary recess is usually the dullest time of the year for the dis cussion of any political subject. The members of the Legislature have separated, the QUEEN has taken her departure for the Dublin Exhibition en route to her Highland home, the Ministers have devolved their respective duties to one of their body, the Turkish question furnishes but the frag ments of a political controversy, and everybody is tired of the doings of last Session, and ill inclined to enter, just yet, into agitation on new questions for the next. There is, therefore, a political lull, well suited to the lassitude of mind and body which ordinarily prevails at this season of the year, owing to the increase of temperature, of which, however, we have this year experienced but little, notwithstanding the appearance of a bright comet in the sky. There are subjects, however, which it is well to bear in mind, and not the least important of these is the maintenance of unity in the Conser vative party, if we would preserve our National Institutions and the moral greatness of our coun try. It was the bane of ancient Rome, that national prosperity induced a forgetfulness of the means by which she reached the pinnacle of power. One by one, the stern principles which had served her so well as she rose were lost sight of when she had risen, and the inevitable consequence was her over throw by the barbarians of the North. Great Britain has had greater advantages than ever were enjoyed by ancient Rome ; but, unless we profit by the warning of her fate, our fall, as we have been raised so much higher, will be the greater. We have not only enjoyed to as full an extent the ad vantages of triumphant conquests by sea and land, subduing all foes by the terrors of our arms, and binding them to us by the ties of national honour and the arts of peace, but we have had the pure light of Revelation—a blessing which Rome never possessed either in her ancient Empire or her mo dern Papal State. And how are we making use of the advantages vouchsafed to us, in order to show ourselves deserving of the high mission with which we are entrusted as the centre of Chris tianity, the promoter of civilisation, the fountain head of commerce, and the arbiter of the destinies of the nations of the world ? From the time of ELIZABETH and the glorious era of the Reforma tion, our commercial and financial policy has been that of Protection to native industry, native capital, and native enterprise. Under that system we pro gressed with a rapidity beyond that of any other nation, either of ancient or modern times, and, at the close of the last long war, had reached a pitch of greatness unparalleled. During all this time Great Britain preserved the purity of the faith which had obtained her so many blessings, and even hazarded a revolution to prevent a return to her ancient superstition. She admitted no en croachments of Rome, whether by force or craft, and allowed none who professed the exploded heresy to have any share in her Government, either national or local. How have we profited by the wisdom of our ancestors, which were blessed with such happy results ? We have thrown the experience of ages to the winds, in order to adopt the theories of political economists, whose gold is their God, whose ledgers are their Bibles, and whose faith is in the price of Consols. It was for the profit of the manufacturers that the duty on foreign corn was repealed, in order that, on the pretence of cheap bread, they might reduce the wages of I their factory slaves. The cry of Free-trade was assumed as a political dogma, to realise which every interest in the country was thrown open to com petition with untaxed foreigners ; and when prices had been so reduced that every merchant, importer, and shipowner was losing by his commercial ope rations, and the country was fast hastening to a general panic, our political agitators sounded the note of Free-trade success, and the consumers, who knew little at whose expense the cheapness had been produced, readily joined in the cry. Provi dence, in its mercy, has reversed the decree, and, by enormous supplies of the circulating medium, raised the prices of almost every commodity, and augmented the wages of labour ; and yet the same cuckoo-cry is repeated about Free-trade prosperity, as though our rulers and politicians had pre-deter mined to adhere to their theory, whether right or wrong. In religion a similar course has been pursued. The safeguards which the wisdom of our ancestors had placed round the national faith, have one by one been displaced upon the false plea of religious liberty. Romanists have not only been admitted to places of trust, and to the responsible duties of legislators, but into the still more responsible offices of advisers to the Crown ; not simply for their abilities, passing over the incident of their being Romanists, but ostensibly and really f or th e latter cause—which ought to have been a disquali fication—in order that the votes of their adherents majority for the may swell a Parliamentary nistrs Superstiti idolatry are will call do\ LS SIIIS it arts unchecked, and z raged by those who are and maintain t he integrity of the Church Even the law establisl Bisuop of ROME to parcel England into dio and to establish a Romish hierarchy, met paltry resistance, which has 1 :e pape and in the British possessic of Malta, Rome is allowed to ride roughshod over British subjec In Ireland elections ar )37 violence at the instigation of Romish priest reading the Scriptures is at the risk of I and yet the authorities interpose none of the power with which they are invested to protect the mes .er of Christianity ; while intruding prelates entrusted with powers by the Ministers of the own. In the face of such facts, which none deny, can we dare to expect the blessings of Pro vidence upon Great Britain as a nation P Ought Ith has we not rather to fear that increase of been sent us in anger, that our fall may be the greater when the trumpet of war shall again be sounded, and we are left to recruit our navy with the forei ith which la seame will be manned, and to raise an army of factory operatives from an insufficiency of the stalwart agricultural labourers who have been forced into emigration as the only relief from their neglected complaints We have too high an opinion of the intelligence and Christian principles of the majority of our countrymen to believe can b, made to them in vain. When their ,ention i aroused to the subject, they 'must elusion, that it is righteousness which exalteth a nation, and that this end will never be achieved by adhering to the course which has been so recklessly legun, and so wilfully persisted in; and the question ,nly remains as to our practical duty, under such Every man should look upon the is especially belonging to himself, for all are leeply interested in the issue. No exertion should be spared to restore, to the ascendancy in the Le gislature, those Conservative principles which are the surest safeguard of the Constitution, and the object of which is, the safety, honour, and welfare of our Sovereign and her dominions. The regi stration, both for Counties and Boroughs, should be carefully attended to. Those who possess wealth and station should not shrink from the duties of ;ircumstaaaces. serving their country, even in the less responsible offices of Corporate and Local Government, and a lesson might even be taken from our foes in the cheap dissemination of sound religious and poli tical information, as largely as was done by the traitorous combination, known as the Anti-Corn Law League. If these means were tried, something might be done to stem the tide of Radicalism and Infidelity which next year will be augmented by the agitation for a new Reform Bill, and we should at least be better prepared to meet the coming storm. The danger cannot be evaded, it must be resisted : and if we display but half the spirit and energy which animated our forefathers, we have no I doubt of arriving at a triumphant issue. THE PROPOSED NETS LIVERPOOL CHURCH m IT will be seen by an advertisement which appears in our first page, that a subscription has been commenced for the erection of a new church in this town, upon a distinct plan, the particulars of which are set forth in the announcement referred to. The building is to be archi tecturally correct, without galleries or enclosed pews, and tend to the decency, devotion,• and solemnity of the Ang accommodation stead of ti lean worship: and kneelh sittings, is to be considered of the first importance, v lave equaLrights with the mu. Inc requisite expenses are to be defrayed by the weekl3 offertory, and such endowment as may be provided. Jr order to carry out this object, the sum of £2,800 ha: already been subscribed, and a committee, com Prising poor are to several of our influential townsmen, has been formed the purpose of collecting further donations, obtaining the requisite site, and transacting the necessary preliminary business. There are several points in the programme put forth which are deserving of attentive c onsideration, though )end, in a great measure upon the mode in which they are carried out. Th e esta blishment of a church in which daily service will be per formed is more especially needed in a town like Liverpool, not only from its vast population—second only in the empire to the great metropolis—but from its fluctuating character, inevitable in a busy port, where ships are daily arriving and departing. It is the reproach of foreigners on England that, in reforming our faith,we virtually closed our churches, except on particular days, while those on the continent have their doors ever open ; but the reproach will be removed from Liverpool by the proposed erection, in which may be carried out the requirements of the Book of Common Prayer, where we find " The Order for Morn ing Prayer daily throughout the year." It is to be hoped that there are many among those who " go down to the sea in ships, and occupy their business in great waters," who " see the works of the Lord and His wonders in the deep," that would gladly avail themselves of the means of grace afforded by public worship during their necessarily brief stay in the port, as well as the numerous strangers from afar who visit this great mart of commerce, and also our own population, who would deem prayer and praise no unfitting commencement for a day of active business. In order, however, that the object may be more fully attained, the service must be performed at an hour most convenient for those whose attendance is desired, not too early for t many to be able to reach the church, nor too late to inte fere with the regular business of the day. Perhaps the hour of nine in the forenoon, as adopted by the American church, would be the best to obviate both objections. Much, however, of the real benefit of this restoration of daily service in the church will depend upon the mode in which the service be performed. We are enjoined to "worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness," and the outward demonstration of this can be in no way more efficiently shown than in the magnificent simplicity of the ritual of the Church of England. It is this sim plicity which constitutes at once its charm and its power. The Romanists, who appeal to the senses, cannot appreciate it; and the Dissenters, who discover fervour only in extempore prayer, cannot understand it. The sublime beauty of our liturgy requires no histrionic aid to recommend it, nor the elaborate music of Romish r. worship to render it attractive. A choir of ordinary ' ability, with the plain but sweet melody of our own Church music, will be ample adornment; and if the words to be sung be confined to the psalms of the sweet singer of Israel, or the simplest anthems, without the innovation of hymns or the compositions which are more suited for the orchestra than the church , it will be a manifest i . m provement. Innovations of all kinds should be stri thing, eschewed the rubrics only should be followed, a . nd nohing, even to a genuflexion, per formed but what is.ce positively , also, the pcoandaedho.aid be Inthe disay d petiarfoarnlanrcel o , f the as sae of the prayers large as to require the practice building would not be so n ec essary in very spacious o f intoning, whic h is only n Cathedrals, and music should only be introduced in thos - po reons o f the ritual in wh ich the con g re g ati on n in singing.

With refer- ence to the sermons, we may remark that everything of a controversial character should be avoided, and the subject matter confined to those lessons of a practical Christian character, which may be most likely to touch the con- sciences and amend the life of those who listen to them. There need be no lack of interest in awakening attention to the sinful state of fallen man, the great mystery of Redemption, the call to repentance and prayer, preparation for an hereafter, and judgment to come. These concern all mankind, and none are more fitted than our own clergy for adapting them so as to touch the hearts of those whom they address.
