The site for the new Church is on an elevated piece of land, on the new Chester-road, and was purchased by the Committee at a very reasonable price, chiefly through the exertions and instrumentality of the Morecrofc family, who have, from the first, taken a very great interest in the present undertaking. The wants of a church in that district for this denomination of worshippers has long been experienced, and as the necessity increased the greatest exertions were made by the leadingfamilies to procure suitable accommodation. As far back as 1855, we find a committee was appointed for the purpose of taking every available steps to secure that object. Since that period, and up to the present time, no means have been left untried to accomplish the object in view; and the result has been. that a very large amount, at least, nearly all that is required, has been raised in the neighbourhood, only assis,ea by friends on the Liverpool side of the Mersey. In that year, 1855, an appartment was engaged as a prayer room for the district, in which the tenets of this body of Christians might be propounded, but, now, the members of the flock have so far augumented that a larger building for public worship had become all but indispensable. The necessary funds having been se cured, to pay •the expense of the erection of a suitable building on the land already purchased, the eminent areaitects, Messrs. J. W. and J. Hay, of Liverpool, were requested to draw out the plan of a church. which woald give, for the present, accommodation for about 500 worshippers, with the power of increasing that accommo dation, whenever it should be required. These gentlemen at once produced a most elegant design in the early deco rative style, consisting cf a simple nave, 71 feet long and 40 feet wide ; a beautiful open arched timber roof, 45 feet high ; with (at :he west end, fronting the Chester road) a steeple 140 feet high. Those who have had the pleasure of seeing the design of this beautiful little, church, cannot help admiring the • taste and skill of the architects, in adapting the greatest quantity of accommodation in the smallest space, and, at the same time, giving an edifice that will afford 811 the requirements that are necessary for the pre sent times, but eau, at no great expense, on a future ,cca sion, be extetded by the addition of a gallery, which will accommodate at least 150 worshippers. The expense of this building will not exceed £1,700. It is to be erected with white Stortoxt stone, similar to St. George's Hal ; and there cannot be a doubt but that it will—standing on the high ground which has been selected—be an ornament to the locality, and a great desideratum the worshippers of that denomination. Having accomplished this much, the next exertions will be made to secure schools for the children, and with the example before them, of the response with which the present appeal has been answered, there cannot bo a doubt as to the result. Shortly before six o'clock, when the company had assembled, amongst whom we noticed the Revck Messrs. Gr ham, Mann, Patterson, Henderson, Boothe, Brown, &c , and Messrs. Mae Fie, J. Fernie, Conner, Strange, Evans, Reed, Skedge, Dr. Gorst, and a large number of ladies, the choir commenced the interest ceremony by singing the 100th psalm, after which the Rev. Mr. Patterson offered up a suitable prayer. The new Pastor, the Rev. Mr. HENDERSON, then came forward, and said it was not his inten ion to occupy much of their time, his duty on that occasion being very simple, but very pleasing, namely, to request the Rev. Mr. Lundy, of Birkenhead, to peform the office of laying the first stone of the building they were about to erect. It was, he said. unnecessary that he should detail the history of their operations, for the fact was that they had not been in existence for more than twenty months, and during that time they had been enabled to erect a building to be elevated to God, in which he hoped their children's and their children's children would meet to worship. But during that time they had raised three fourths of the sum required to pay the expenses, and he did not doubt, but that from the liberality that had been displayed, that the whole nmount would be raised. He concluded in a most earnest and impressive manner dwelli. g on the importance of erecting the church ; and in presenting a beautiful silver trowel, on which was in scribed, " That this trowel was presented to the Rev. Mr. Dee, on the occasion of the laying the foundation stone of the New Presbyterian Church of Rock Ferry, June 16th, 1857." The Rev. Me. LUNDY then briefly acknowledged the compliment paid upon himself, and also the gratification he felt at seeing the fruits of his labours so succeFsfally carried out. The Rev. Mr. Lundy then deposited in a vacuum in the under-stone, a glass bottle, containing the several coins of the realm, some religious publications. and some papers of the day. The stone having been lowered into its final destination, under the able superintendence of. Mr. Hay, the architect, and Mr. Fisher, toe contractor, the Rev. Mr. Lundy declared the store formally laid. He then pro ceeded, at considerable length, to address those assembled on the tenets 0' Presbyterianism, and concluded by exhort ing , hem not to be afraid of avowing the religion they espoused. After another suitable prayer and hymn, the company adjourned to the Albert Rooms, where a soiree was held at which between 200 and 300 ladies and gentle - men were present. Mr. Branch presided, and we understand that in the course of the evening several excellent addresses were delivered. THE NORTHERN TIMES.-LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 17, 1857. CRICKET MATCH. THE ELEVEN OF ALL ENGLAND V. TWENTY-TWO OF LIVERPOOL. This match, the interest in which has much increased, was resumed yesterday in the Prince's-park. The number of spectators was far larger than on Monday, and more ladies were on the ground than we have ever seen at any similar gathering in the Prince's-park. The weather was dclightfully fine, and the pleasure of the scene was enhanced by the excellent performae•ce of the Local Pen sioners' band. The wickets were pitched at half-past twelve o'clock, when the twenty-two resumed their first innings. They had eight wickets to go down, and were all out by about half past two o'clock, th e i r t o t a l score on fi rst innings, including 59 got on Monday, being 68. The All Englanders went in on their second innings at three o'clock, and their last man was bowlel out just as it turned six o'clock. They scored 118, which, with 49 on their first innings, makes their toted score 167. Their play yesterday was coed, hut not remarkable. As to the Twenty-two of LiverpoO, their fielding was not near so good as on Monday, but their bowling was most excellent. They Will have to score 99 in their second innings to tie ; but seeing that they only scored 68 on their first innings,, -when the All England Fifteen played loose, they do tot look the winners. Ihe chances of the game, how ever, are many, and as they play cautiously, the result TM,ay disappoint a " knowing one." Yesterday 3 to I was, freely offered on the All England Fifteen, but the or,,ler was not as freely taken, The scrira now stands as folleir,s E NG 3,4/ - .ND Second Innings A.

LIVERPOOL, Tuesday Evening. There was not much business done in our Cotton Market to-clay, the sales only reaching 4,000 bales, of which 500 were on speculation and for export. No change occurred in pricos,which remained very firm. In the Liverpool Share Market the transac tions are on a limited scale; and prices, on the whole, are slightly lower. Birkenhead, however, shows an advance of -1 per cent. The following were the day's transactions :-Birken head, Lancashire. and Cheshire, 691, 70 ; -Black burn, 84, 9, k ; Caledonian, 376. i; Great Western, 05; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 1016, 1, 1004, f-i; London and North Western, 104.4, 1 ; Do, one eighth shares, ?-,fl ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lin colnshire 434 ; Midland, 83*, 3 4 , a ; North Eastern, 22*, 1; Dovers, 221, -t, 1, ?-,, / ; Grand Trunk of Canada, 151, 8 7 15 1-16, 14i; Great Luxem , bour.7„ 11, 3-1.6 d ; Dutch Rhenish, 18 d ; Royal Insurance, 3, 9-16 p.

Consols for the Account, closed at 931 and after official hours they were quoted at 03 1-16 to 93 3-16. At noon the price was 93*, to 938. Exchrquer Bills closed at 5 dis. to 3 pm., and the New Three Per Cents. at 92k, to 93 . 4.. The London Railway Share Market was very active to-dav, and declined in sympathy with Consols. The heavier Stocks show chiefly depression. French Lines were steady, and Canadians rather flat As this was settling day. there was but little general business transacted. The following were the closing prices ;-Amber_ gate, Nottingham, and East Junction, 58, g ; Caledonian, 743, 75.1, ; Edinburgh and Glasgow, 60, 62 ; Eastern Counties, 111, 3, ; East Lanca shire, 97, 98; Great Northern, 981, I; Ditto A shares, 888, 89a; Great Western, 64L -3- ; Lanca shire andYorksbire,loo*, Leeds Northern, 451 ; London and North Western, 104 k, K ; London cad South Western, 1001, 101; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, 431, 44 ; Midland Stock, 832, ; South Eastern and Dover, 73k, 74,1; York, Newcastle, and Berwick, 91, 92 ; York and North Midland, 702, 71 ; Bank Stock 212, 214; Holy head, 36, 37 ; Grand Trunk, 141, 15 ; Great Western of Canada, 22a, ; Ditto New, I, ; Great Southern .and Western, 104, 106 ; Scot tish North Eastern-Aberdeen, 241, 251 After official hours the following were the current quotations :-Caledonian, 751; Eastern Counties, 11i, 11s; East Lancashire, 97,' 98; Great Northern, 98, 99; Ditto A, 88, 90 ; Great Western, 64-1, 641; Lau sashire and Yorkshire, 1001, 100.: ; London and North Western, 104*, 1048; Man chester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, 431 441; South Eastern and Dover, 731; York, Newcastle, and Berwick, 91, 92 ; York and North Midland, 701, 71. • The Manchester Market maintains the late advance, producers demand full rates, but buyers act with the greatest caution, and the business doing is consequently limited. - Large and increesing as have been the supplies of home-grown Wheat of late, they are evidently short of the requirements of consumers, and there has been a pretty general advance in the country markets during last week, of 2s to 3s per quarter; the exreme fineness of the weather, which is now bringing the crop into ear in early districts, and the prospect, under circumstances favourable for the blooming of an early and abundant harvest., fail altogether in their usual effect of depressing prices, the exhaustion of stocks at outports, the small quantities held by millers, and the in - lifferent provision we can realize from abroad for some months hence, giving, on the contrary, the appre hension of a continuance of stiffening prices, in dependent of the possible occurrence of casualties as ,the grain more nearly approaches maturity. The American markets have advanced, and again fluctuated downwards, but without any stock avail able for present export, their transactions are almost entirely confined to home demands, at rates which, notwithstanding the advance on this side, would be attended with loss. The European Con tinental markets are looking up, though reports of the coming harvest are universally favourable. The trade here in Wheat since Friday, has not been active, but a good business has been done in Flour, both articles tending upwards in value. Indian Corn little varied in, price, but with a slow inquiry. At the market to-day Wheat advanced 2d to 3d per bushel, and. Flour 6d to is per barrel: At the various country markets an advance in the price of Wheat and Flour must be noticed. The General Produce Markets are very quiet: To-clay there was only a limited supply of Sugar, and prices exhibited a downward tendency. Rice is dull of sale. Other articles of produce steady, with a moderate inquiry. The following are the latest quotations for. Foreign Exchanges :—Amsterdam Short, 11 17 to to 11 18,1- ; Do., three months, 11 121 to 11 12k; Rotterdam Do., 11 121, to 11 12 t , ; Antwerp Do., 25 45 to 25 50 ; Brussels Do., 25 45 to 25.50 ; Hamburg Do., 13 st, to 13 St; Paris Short, '25 27* to 25 35; Do.

The demand for silver is at present inactive owing to the inability to despatch by the next India mail more than the total now engaged, it being found impossible to effect further insurances. The rate has advanced from 35s to 50 per cent, and .the latter amount. has been offered in vain. Polices, however, are already being opened for the succeeding mail. Some of the principal letters from Paris express doubts of any reduction being made next Thursday in the rate of discount of the Bank of France. Others assert, not only that an alteration will be resolved upon, but that it will be to the extent of one per cent. ' The directors, it is said, greatly desire that the first step should be taken by the Bank of England. The report of the Chartered Bank of Australia has been issued, preparatory to a meeting on the 26th. Although the spirit of overtrading and speculation in Australia has necessitated great caution, the bank is gradually extending its busi ness, and the adViccs up to the lateat dates are satisfactory. The profits for the half-year ending 31st December were 22,9771, out of which a divi dend at the rate of . 5 per cent. per annum is recommended, leaving a balance of 6,1021 to be carried forward. • A. telegraphic despatch, dated St. Petersburg, Saturday, reports the Exchange on London as firm, at 38 3-16 d. Hemp was firm, and the ad vanced price of 29 roubles had been paid. In the Tallow Market 1.70 roubles had been paid for August delivery.

Large and increasing as have been the supplies of home-grown Wheat of late, they are evidently short of the requirements of con sumers, and there has been a pretty general advance in the country markets during the week of Os to 3s per quarter ; the extreme fineness of the weather, which is now bringing the crrp into ear in early dis • tricts, and tee prospect under circumstanccs favourable for the bloom ing, of an early and abundant harvest, fail altogether in their usual effect of depressing prices; the exhausti •n of stocko at outperts, the small quantities held by millers, and tee indifferent provision we can realise from abrcad for some. months hence, giving, on the contrary, the appre'ir-nsion of a continuance of stiffening prices, independent of the po •sible occurrence of casualties as the grain more nearly approaches maturity. The American markets have advie ced, and again fiectuated down words, but without any stock available for present export, their tran sactions are almost entirely confined to home (1, mends, at rates which, notwithstanding the advance on this side, would be attended with loss. The European Continental markets a e looking up, though reports of the coming harvest are universally favourable. The trade here in Wheat since Friday has not been active, but a good business has been done in Flew-, both articles tending upwards in value ; Indian Corn little varied In pries, with bat a slow inquiry. Our imports for the past seven days era r.ct lage, being very litt:e Increased by the arrivals to hand since the middle of last week ; the export of 'radian Corn is less than previously noticed. Holders demanded a further advance of Id to 2d per bushel on Wheat at this day's market, end sales proce?ded to a moderate extent at that improvement, making a rice of 3d to 4d over 'act Tuesday's currencies, but the trade closed with reluctant buyers, holders very firm. Upon a moderate show of farmers' wheat this morning, the trade was slow at an advance of fell Id per 70 lbs. Flour found a steady sale at an amendment of 6,1 to Is per bariel on the week. Barley and Bean , : little varizd in v , Ine cr demand Oats and Oatmeal in fair requ , 3st at fall prices.

A Cua'ocs T.6Tc SOON SITI3FI ED.—On Friday, at the New Bailey, Manchester, a man with his face much scratched, was placel in the dock under the fol'owing circumstances:—A police-officer stated that, on Thursday night, abou, ten o'clo .k, he saw the prisoner (who represented himself as William spinal], sur g eon, in Oldham road), along with another man, at the Crum peal' toll-bar. They had a gig, and the prisoner was effected with liquor, and contending about somethingat the bar. Witness told him he had better go on, and he did so a little way, then asked witness to put the handcuffs on him as he had a nice pair of wrists. Witness would not do that, upon which, the prisoner struck hire, saying that ho wanted to see what sort of a place the lock-up was. Mr. Trafford: Well, what do you think of them ? Prisoner :I am quite satisfied. Mr. Trafford : Perhaps you would like to see the gaol? Prisoner : No, s'r, lam quite satisfied. Mr. Trafford : How were you behaved to in the lock-up ; have you had your breakfast? Prisoner: Yes, I have had some good coffee. Mr. Trafford: Weil, I think that ought not to be at the county's expense, for if peop'e are to be allowed to enter es an experiment to see the place, and have good coffee, we shall have a great deed coming. He was fined les., or be committed for one month. SWINDLING OF HOTEL KEEPERS IN DEVONSIIIRE,—A few days ago, a well-dressed man, of gentlemanly deportment, calling himself the Hon. J. Dawson, came to the Half-Moon Hotel, Exeter, where he stopped for three days. Just before he left, he asked the landlord to cash a cheque for 101., saying he had overstaid his time at the meeting Of the Bath and West of England Agricultural Society, held at New ton Abbot, and he was short of cash. The landlord readily consented and the " Hon. J. Dawson " paid his tavern bill out of the WI, and liberally rewarded the waiters who had attended upon him. The cheque was drawn on Messrs Ransome and Co., London. It was paid by the landlord to his banking account in Exeter, and was forwarded in due course to London. In the meantime, the " Hon. J. Dawson" went to the London Inn, Exefer, and there called himself Major Grant. He staid there for a few days, and, on pretences similar to those used at the Half-moon, he got another cheque for 101., drawn on Hoare and Co. by "Major Grant," cashed by the landlord, and before the other cheque could be returned he had decamped. The result was that both cheques were returned dishonoured. Efforts have been made to discover the " Major's " whereabouts. but as yet they have proved fruitless. Tue PLANO TONING ',,ODGs.—At the Worship-street Police-court, London, en Thursday, John Ellis and Daniel Hagerty, two young men about 20, were charged before Mr. D'Eyncotirt with the following robbery :—At a quarter-past four on Wednesday afternoon, a loud knock was given at the door of a gentlemen named Gooch, residing in Shrubland-road, Dalston, and on its being answered by the house =set she found Haga'ty, who said he had come f. om Mr. Davis, and handed her this note: "Sir, he kind enough to tell the bearer when it will be convenient to you to let me send a man to tune your piano forte. I would hare sent before, but have - been too busy, and hope you will excuse it This was signed " George Davis," and directed from Great Charlotte-street, Blackfriars Road. The girl took the note to her mistress in the kitchen, who said it must be a mistake, and went up to explain that it was so, but on both gettingto the door they found the messenger had left, though he had said ho would wait for an answer. Mr. Goech came home shortly after, and his wife asked him about the tuning. " Ah, my dear," said he, " this is a planned thing for a robbery; you had better look about the place ;" and on the mistress and girl so doing two coats and a cloak were found to have been stolen. Exactly an hour after this, Sergeant Crisp, of the N division, was on duty in the Kingsland Road, when the two prisoners passed him close to the Canal Bridge. He had no particular reason for doing so, bat he thought Ellis looked stouter than he naturally would do, and therefore stopped him and unbuttoned his coat, a liberty the prisoner resented. This operation of unbuttoning, however, he had to perform three times, the prisoner bang eacased in as many coats. " Why," said Crisp, "it's rather warm for three coats, isn't it ?" " Well, it is," said Ellis, "rather, but I bought them of a man cheap, and thought I might as well put them on for con venience." The prisoner, however,neither knew the seller nor where he lived, and aas therefore transferred to the station, to which also shortly after was Hacarty brought, he having been pursu e d an d captured by another officer, together with the clos.k, which had been flung into an empty house in Hayfield-street, and on searching Ellis, another of Mr. Davis's pianoforte letters 'eras found upon him. In spector Langdon.said these robberies were becoming sorne Nhat serious, el this was the sixth committed in his dist:let of Kingsland within a fortnight, and all by means of fictition; letters similar to those pro duced. Neither prisoner hed 4 vr9r o . to say, and they were both fully committed for trig SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. LIVERPOOL, JUNE 17. Man WATER—Morn. 6 37—Even. 7 12—Hetelit, 13 ft.

Births, Nlarriarer, ' and Maths, are only inserted sert to our OPIco duly authenticated. The monument at Birmingham to the memory of Colonel Unett, who fell leading his regiment to the attack on the Redan, has been placed in St. Phillip's Churchyard. It consists of an elegant and symmetrical Egyptian obelisk, of polished Peterhead granite, raised upon a solid pedestal of the same material, the whole being supported at the base by three massive steps. The height of the monument is very nearly twenty feet, of which the obelisk alone measures twelve, the latter being hewn out of one huge block of granite, upwards of three tons in weight, a somewhat striking circumstance. ELOPEMENT EXTRIORDINANT.—On Wednesday even nr, the 3rd inst., a man and a woman arrived by rail at the Bridlington station, and made their way by Omnibus to an inn in the market place, where they took up their above for the night as husband and wife, stating, among other things, they hal been married two months, and had come to Bridlington to obtain work, the man as a labourer, and the woman in any way in which she could be useful, especially in the stitching line. They had a large quantity of luggage, comprising female attire and abundance of prov'sions, consisting of pies of various kinds and s!zes, cheese-cakes , ta rts, ham, bread, a bottle of wine, &e. They ate, drank, pad were very merry, and the good people of the inn t ,ken with their new guests, Who intimated their seemed greatly intention of remaining in that hospitable domicile for some time to come. At length to beft they %mit but now tney steps uer;;; 12 ; knoweth not. In the morning they re-appeared, and in due time a sumptuous breakfast was prepared, to which the happy couple sat down ; but, as, it is said, the course of true love seldom runs smooth, so in this instance; for scarcely had th 3 revelry begun, when, lo in popped the woman's husband, accompanied by a policeman. Now, under such circumstances it is natural enough to expect that all the crockery on the table and tte heads of the wife and her paramour would be smashed to atoms, or at least seriously injured ; but no, the tender-heated, fondly-loving husband merely said, with the utmost sang-froid. "My dear, Ize come to tak thee hooam ; will thou gang?" To which his cars sposa as cooly replied, " No, never." Yet all was peace and quietness ; the loving couple continued doing ample justice to their luxuriant repast, while the husband sat looking on and smoking his pipe. After breakfast some conversation followed, in which the unhappy husband used all the eloquence of which he was capable to induce his faithless spouse to return to his home, at Sutton, near Hull; promising, if she would return, he would freely forgive her and never again mention her misconduct. She, however, seemed resolved to abide by her choice, and all entreaties, promises, and arguments appeared but a waste of words. At length threats were resorted to, and, seeing the strong arm of the law before her, madame most reluctantly consented to go back, but declared most positively and determinately that she would never live with him again ; and, before peeking up for departure, she told her paramour to meet her in Hull, and, on parting, they em braced each other most lovingly in the presence of the husband 1 Many other sayings and doings connected with this serio-comic affair might have been given, some of which were very amusing and some of a contrary character. The husband and wife appeared to be about 40 years of age each, and they 1134)7's love about 26.—Yorkshiretnan. Q.lommerriat THIS DAY.
