Within the last few years eve e, with — scrcely an excep tion, has been making rapi vances, and the old policy of SMALL RETURNS with L GE PROFITS has been abandoned for that of SMALL PROWLS upon LARGE RETURNS, and in con sequence have sprung up the many large Establishments in this town, for thelale of Manufactures upon principles greatly to the advantage of the public. This Establishment is founded to meet the requirements of the age in this most necessary department of House Furnish ing, and is conducted upon the following principles : TO OFFER ONLY SUCH GOODS AS WILL GIVE SATISFACTION. TO SELL THOSE GOODS AT THE LOWEST POSSIBLI REMUNERATING PROFIT TO MARK ALL GOODS AT ONE PRICE, FROM WHICH NO ABATEMENT CAN BE MADE. From the long experience B.

FAMILIES and PRIVATE VISITORS intending to avail themselves of the advantages of a MARINE WATERING PLACE, At the above eligible, popular, and flourishing spot, are res pectfully informed that there is every accommodation required. WATERLO Has now been established as vniiierior and highly-advantage ous summer retreat for upwards of twenty years, during which period it has steadily an •deservedly risen into repute, and has, every season, been n e the resort of families and individuals, of the highest res ability, from all parts of Britain, and from many parts of,B rope. It is situated upon the verge of the Lancashire side of the North Shore, about five miles distant from Liverpool, consist ing of upwards of 200 neat and fanciful cottages, which are kept in excellent repair, and are usefully and elegantly furnished, upon which, in fact, no expenditure has been spared by the pro prietors to render them, in every respect, suitably adapted to answer all the purposes required by visitors to marine estab lishments. Thirty-two of the residences are so laid out as to form a beautiful and unique Crescent, on the north, with others, forming two Terraces, in the cent r e, an d an E splanade on the south, intersected by various other lines of marine abodes in an eastwardly direction l their situation, and variety in size, thus affording every facility for visitors either wishing to be in im mediate contiguity with the open sea, or for those who would prefer a more retired locality. From its being situated below where the river Mersey diverges and losses itself in the sea, and directly opposite the Victoria and R oc k Ch anne l s, there is a commanding view of the shipping, which, for number, size, and variety of vessel, is surpassed, perhaps, by no other port in the world, every description of which, entering in, or departing from the port of Liverpool, to or from sea, must necessarily pass within prospect of Waterloo. The prospect on land is equally beautiful, being varied, picturesque, and romantic, hav ing within sight A 'PANORAMIC VIEW OF SEAFORTH, Bootle, Kirkdale, Eyerton, the north end of Liverpool Docks, &c., on the Lancashire side of the Meiri;i,vo-IZlNline 'vnae rious Establishments situated on a great part of the Cheshire coast, including New Brighton, THE ROCK POINT, FERRY, CHANNEL AND ROCK LIGHTHOUSES, the Fort, and other settlements interspersing the south side, extending westwardly along the Cheshire peninsula to HOYIAKE AN!) HILBRE ISLAND. It also commands an extensive view of the Welsh coast, the Great and Little Ormsheads, Snowdon, with the Snowdonia range of mountains, and some of the most maeniA..o.,. A,_:__ ..... s t uncent Alpine scenery of the Principality. From its proximity to the sea, the air is ever fresh and brac ing, and is proverbial for its salubrity, a fact peculiarly mani fested by the Plants and Flowers contained in the Cottage Gar dens fronting the sea breezes having a vivid and uniformly healthy appearance. The Salt Wat er i s pure, and not conta minated, as is always the case with the narrow parts of rivers, on the confines of a large a n d p opu l ous town, being renewed every tide, immediately from the sea. The Beach is justly considered to be one of the finest, least dangerous, and in every other respect the best adapted for Sr - th- • lathing in we ..ingdom. The Sands are hardfricd sn s;aoth i , which, with the diversified scenery on each side of the river, and the cool and refreshing westerly winds in the Summer, render a stroll along the strand, or a ride to town, remarkably attractive, pleasant, and conducive to health. The flourishing town of Liverpool, with all its natural, artificial, mercantile, literary, and scientific attractions, is easy of access, havingcorn nication by means of Omnibuse s , running every hour in the day. Aquatic excursions May also be taken by means of large noo nen-manageu rieasure Boats, and there is every opportu nity of piscatorial and rural excursion in the proximate vicinity. Chalvbeate Waters are also found in the neighbourhood. Religious advantages may be enjoyed, either at the Estab lished Church, or at the C ongre gationalists' Chapel, both of which have been recently erected in Waterloo. There are also other places of Worship in the environs, comprising the Catho lic Chapel and Episcopalian Church, at the village of Great Crosby; the antique Church at Sefton; and the more modern one at Seaforth. Visitors not wishing to take a Cottage, may obtain Furnished Apartments either in private houses (of which there are many designed for the purpose,) or they may . be comfortably accom motated at the Hotels, without being incommoded by noise or bustle. THE BATH HOTEL, CONDUCTED BY MRS. SILLITOE, (Who is also the General Agent for the Letting of Cottages,) Is at all times in readiness for the reception of Parties, at which place they are speedily and well provided for, and may rely upon having the utmost attention paid to them. It ....imensantt situated near the end of the Marine Crescent , and within one minute's walk of the Shore, having extensive Stabling and Coach-houses. Hot and Cold Salt Water Baths, Shower Baths, &c., in readiness on the shortest notice, with numerous Bath ing Machines on the strand, which are conducted in a judicious, safe, and experienced manner. hoice and ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.

MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.—OR Tuesday afternoon four boys, named John Harrison, Thomas Harrison, John Thompson, and John Dobson, were playing together at Tarleton, near a bridge called the Town-end Bridge, which is moveable and placed across a branch of the Li verpool and Leeds Canal at Tarleton. John and Thomas Harrison pushed the bridge partly round. Thompson was on one end of it and Dobson was in the lane. Thompson in endeavouring to skip eff the bridge into the lane, struck against Dobson who was attempting to jump upon the bridge, and both immediately fell into the canal, below the bridge. Assistance cam procured but the bodies were not discovered till they had been in the water about twenty minutes and they were both dead. THE STEAMER MAIDEN ClTY.—This vessel, which was recently stranded near the Mull of Galloway, was got off on Tuesday, and taken to Ardrossan without assist ance.

The performance at the Zoological Gardens last night by Mons. Jullien andlhis unrivalled;band, were witnessed by nearly six thousand persons, all of whom were enraptured by the sweet sounds, and testified their approbation by unceasing applause. The band will perform several new and admired pieces this evening, being the last night of their engagement. PRINCE ALBERT'S VISIT.—We have authority to con tradict a statement which has been generally circulated, to the effect that a steamer has been chartered for the purpose of preceding his Royal Highness Prince Albert in his excursion on the river prior to the opening of Albert Dock and warehouses on Thursday next.

THE ENGLISH DANSEUSES.—The English public will be shortly gratified by witnessing the results of a suc- cessful experiment, which was lately noticed as having been put in practice by Mr. Simpson, the lessee of the Theatres Royal, Birmingham and Liverpool. Of course, ell who witnessed the performances of the DanseuseB Viennoises perceived that the beautiful effects wl produced were the results of r simultaneous action, and accurately measured motion, controlled and kept in perfect order by the time of t e music. Mr. Simpson rightly judged that English children ged coc ;;;itii;;;S intelligent pupils as those of aerniany . that, once instructed in the necessary steps and horr ous evolutions, the natural aptitude which all chi enable them to go through a series of intric and ele figures with as much precision as the juveniles instructed by Madame Weiss. He has accordingly selected thin y six children in Birmingham, and placed them under the care of Mr. and Mrs. Ridgway, who have in a wonderfully short space of time drilled them into a perfect knowledge of all the mysteries required. They have, we are assured, even improved on the originals, exhibiting new and ex traordinary combinations, and an union of grace and Agility which greatly enhances their performances.

THE COURT 4- FASHIONABLE WORLD, The Queen, the Royal Family, and the Prince of Leinin gen, left Osborne House on Monday afternoon, for Buckingham Palace. ROYAL CHRISTENING.—The ceremony of christening the royal infant, Helena Augusta Victoria, was performed on Saturday evening at seven o'clock, by the Archbishop of Canterbury, assisted by the Bishops of London and Norwich. The sponsors were the Duchess of Kent (proxy for the Duchess of Orleans), the Duchess of Cambridge, and the Grand Duke of Mecklinburg Strelitz. On enter ing the chapel the Queen led the Princess Royal by the band, the Prince led the Prince of Wales, and the Duke of Cambridge the Princess Alice. The Princess Mary, the Duke of Wellington, and most of the ministers in their full official costumes, were also present. At the con clusion of the baptism, and at the commencement of the Lord's Prayer, her Majesty knelt down; the Prince of Wales looked doubtfully in the Queen's face, but at a sign from his august parent, he knelt reverently down, he and his sister, the Priscess Royal, on either side of the chair; in front of which her Majesty was kneeling, and joined their little hands prayer. The Queen wore a dress of silver tissue, with one very deep flounce, a wreath of white roses with dark green leaves round her head, and a bouquet of the same flowers in her dress; a diamond necklace, diamond ear-rings, and the dark blue ribband of the Order of the Garter, with a magnificent George, in diamonds, suspended. Prince Albert .wore a field-mar shall's uniform, with the insignia of the Order of the Garter, and also the collar of the Order of the Bath. The Prince of Wales had on a plain loose tunic, appa rently of the finest white cashmere, without a single or nament or decoration of any kind, and it is impossible to admire too much the classic purity of this costume, or the fine taste which dictated it. The Princess Royal and the Princess Alice wore white satin dresses, with lace over them. After the ceremony, there was a grand ban quet in the picture gallery. Intelligence of the demise of Lord George William Russell, G.C.8., was received in town on Wednesday. Prince Louis Napoleon has been on a visit to Sir John Gerard, at New Hall.

The pieces performed were two fantasias, the one by Kalkbrenner and the other by Thaiberg, and their execution elicited the approbation of her Majesty and her Royal Consort. UNIVERSITY 4. CLERICAL NEWS. The Evangelical Alliance have issued a notice, that " the period for the nomination of members will cease on the Bth August next, after which no new member can be received." The office of the Society is at Exeter Hall. Very wonderful is the change which has taken place in men's minds, within the last dozen years, on questions connected with the church. Who would have expected, a few years back, to have beard from the lips of such an Ultra-Liberal as the present Earl Grey, an assent, not only to an increase in the number of bishops, but even to the introduction of such new bishops into the House of Lords ! We can all remember Mr. Cuthbert Rippon's re peated motions for the entire exclusion of the bishops from that house. Yet here is a politician, supposed to resemble Mr. Cuthbert Ripp on i n mos t of his views, — who yet not only abandons the idea of excluding the bishops, but can regard without alarm, the idea of an in creased number of Spiritual Peers!

SIR,—I venture to hope that, in these days of progres sion, accommodation for the poor will be provided in the new Chapel for the Blind ; and if the site is fixed, as re ported, in Bardman-street, it seems to me this could be better arranged, while the cause of the Church would no doubt be more practically advanced, by rebuilding or adapt ing St. Philip's, than by a new separate chapel in a dis trict well provided with accommodation. Arrangements with the patron I imagine might be made without diffi culty ; and as there would be a great saving in land, be sides the available materials, a prominent ornament might be secured to the town without extra expense ; at the worst, I should anticipate no difficulty in raising what would be required by suhscription, to which none would contribute his mite with greater pleasure than, Sir, your very obedient but uninfluential Liverpool, 23d July, 1846 TOWNSMAN, GENERAL MISCELLANY.

The child lay from se ven o ' c l ock in the morning to eight at night, when a person, on going tip stairs, found the child alive and crying.—Chesterfield Courier. The heartless inconsistency of the new Government in regard to negro slavery, and the measure proposed for neutralising the effect of the Emancipation Act, seem to confirm the belief that further Ministerial changes must take place shortly. This eitfectation necessarily disturbs the confidence of the moneyed classes, to the prejudice of the stock markets. DEATH IN A RAILWAY TUNNEL. On the first day of the Maidstone Assizes, a gentleman engaged in a civil ac tion was proceeding by the South-Eastern Railway to Maidstone, when, in passing through the Merstham Tun nel, a fellow passenger, sitting opposite to him, was asto nished at finding his neighbour suddenly thrown into his lap, and apparently unable to recover his place.

STEAM YACHT.—A tiny steamer was in the Hull Dock in the beginning of this week, whose measurement, ac cording to the old system, is only fifteen tons, and ac cording to the new about twenty.

She is a perfect model in appearance, schooner rigged, and everything in proportion. Her entire length is 45 feet. Her name is the " Fire Fly," the property of John Malam, Esq., of this town.—Hull Paper. BISHOP GOBAT.--With reference to the insinuations levelled by certain Romanisers amongst us, we are happy in having the opportunity to state, that the pious and venerable Primate, as well as the Bishop of London, bare expressed themselves entirely satisfied with the sound churchmanship and orthodox views of the new Anglican bishop at Jerusalem in all doctrinal matters. Not only do these eminent dignitaries of the church, but the Bishop of Malta also, who has enjoyed peculiar opportu nities of intercourse with him , esteem him eminently qua lified in every respect for the very responsible charge to which he has been called. The Parisian newspapers-invent strange tales at times respecting us and our country. One of them, for example, says quite positively, that Ibrahim Pacha has been most coldly received and cruelly insulted at London, because it was reported that he strangled with his own hand one of his concubines at Paris. Another said the other day that the Queen of England is very cruel, inasmuch as she threatened to banish the Duchess of Buccleuch, her mistress of the robes, to Botany Bay, f or h av i ng once kept her waiting for five minutes I Last week, all the Parisian news papers told a cock-and-bull story of Sir Robert Peel's eldest son having lost £60,000 in gambling, and having been thrown into prison on his father's refusal to pay. At Winchester assizes, on Wednesday, Thomas Mul lard, was tried for shooting at Thomas Brealey, with in tent to kill him. The prisoner was foreman over some works near Andover ; Brealey was time-keeper. Shur mar suspected that Braeley had robbed him ; and, calling him into the clerk's office one day, he asked him for the money he bad lost; Brealey said he knew nothing about it, whereupon the accused took a pistol from his pocket, and, saying—" Then you are a murdered man 1" he fired. Brealey was badly wounded in the jaw, but not fatally. Shurmur had been kind to the prosecutor, and declared that he only meant to frighten him ; be seemed to regret the disaster. The defence set up was, that the wounding was not wilful, but accidental. The prisoner was found guilty of an assault only, and was ordered to be imprisoned one month.

WHOSE EXERTIONS REPEALED THE CORN LAWS.-n.i . Mr. O'Connell puts in a claim for the repeal members, who came over from Ireland " to die on the floor of the House," and who were only prevented from making a shambles of St. Stephens by the timely overthrow of the Peel administration. " The corn-laws are repealed," said Mr. O'Connell the other day, "and their repeal is mainly owing to the Irish Liberal members." Sir J. C. Hobhouse, Sir Denis Le Merchant, and others of the Whig placemen, say—" Who were the real beginners of those great commercial reforms which have now, by the instrumentality of the late Administration, happily be come law ? Why our decried party, to be sure. And Mr. C. W oo d, the Whig Chancellor of the Exchequer, declares with pride that he was against protection to agri culture "fourteen years ago." But even Mr. C. Wood is "distanced", by another competitor, Mr. John Smith, of the Liverpool Mercury, who, it is timely remembered, exactly "twenty-one years and three months ago," de livered a speech so conclusive and so admirably compre hensive (according to his own paper), that its doctrines have supplied "the staple of the auments used in th e late great struggle."—Bollo n Chron ic le. SOUTH LANCASHIRE ELECTION.—OR Tuesday last, the election of a new member for the southern division, in the room of Earl Ellesmere, (late Lord F. Egerton,)took place at Newton-in-the-Willows. The affair excited no p ta u m bl e. ic in i t e e tu re b st e , rs a a n u d d thhieenpdrsoocfetehdeinLegsagwueeraerrievxecd by raileedingly about ten o'clock. The chair was taken by W. Standish Standish, Esq., the High Sheriff, and officially announced the business of the day. R. H. Greg, Esq., of Man chester, proposed as a fit candidate, W. Brown, Esq., of Liverpool, whose character as a man, a merchant, and a free trader, he warmly eulogized. Towards the conclu sion of his address he said that some gentlemen were of opinion that there was no danger of reverting to the ancient narrow policy in commercial and political affairs; but he himself thought there was some danger of a partial reaction, and it was therefore important to have such a gentleman as Mr. Brown in Parliament, whose acute ness and experience would enable him to detect and ex plain such fallacies, or such limited views, or such short sighted reasonings as these —one, as he said before, whose whole habit of life was bound up in the prosperity of com merce and the freedom of industry. No other candidate having been named, Mr. Brown was declared to be duly elected, and on presenting himself was received with loud cheers. He acknowledged the honour of being requested gratulated them upon Ito represent so numerous, influential consituency. He most sincerely cos the abolition of a corn laws, and the conversion of the leading statesmen of the two great political parties of this country to a conviction of the advantages of commercial freedom. He commented on the advantages that would result from unrestricted tr a d e , co ll ec ti ve l y to t h e land- lord, the manufacturer, and the merchant. In order, however, to maintain the revenue, they could not do away with the duties on some of the luxuries of life. Ire land, he said, ought no longer to be treated as a conquered nation.
