EXTENSIVE PREPARATIONS IN LIVER.

POOL FOR THE ENSUING CAMPAI(

- w-

That government. believe that. the hollow prc

Lions which are just now being „promul

gated by' diplo-

matists, are not likely .to end in

peaceful issu(

may be inferred from the extensive preparations which are
being made all over the country for renewing hostilities
during the ensuing spring. What is doing in the principal
foundries throughout, the kingdom may be judged from the
activity diiplayed in Liverpool alone, where the following
immense amount of 'war material ig in process of construc-
tion. First of all may be mentioned the name of Mr. John
Laird, the well-known shipbuilder, who has, in his yards
at Birkenhead and Liverpool, fourteen wooden screw gun-
boats, already far -advanced in construction, of 240 tons,
and 'about 60 horse power eacb, to be armed with two heavy
guns .a-piece. 'lt is said that government are so well
satisfied with the progress; already; made, that they have
this week doubled Mr. Laird's order so that he will
now have twenty-eight vessels of war on hand. Then
at the Mersey Steel and Iron Works, in addition to the
monster wrought-iron gun which they are going to present to
government, and which is to be 15 feet long, 13 inch bore,
25 tons weight, and capable 'of throwing a ball of 300!hs.
a distance of five miles, they have been 'commissioned to
make two enormous wrought iron mortars, which will be
charged with nearly two cwt. for each charge, and throw
shells of 36 inches diameter. This siz) an I description of
mortar will be quite unparalleled, but great confi fence is
felt as to the result of the experiment. At Messrs. Forrester
and, Co.'s, Vauxhall Foundry, between 7,000 and 8,000
tons of 8, 10 and 13-inch shell have been turned out
during the last six months. Indeed, 1,400 tons of these
projectiles have been'shipped iDtt* to Woolwich during the
last ten days, besides two, or three dozen 10-inch and 13-inch
Mortars for sea and land service. There are two immense
cast iron mortars making at this establishment, to throw
18-inch shells. This is 5 inches more diameter than any
shell previously ,made in this country ; but the Russian
Whistling Dick" at Sebastopel was a 15. inch shell. The
first of. the large mortars was taken Out -of the mould this
week, and the .mass of metal in that state of which it
is composed weighs twenty-five tons. The workmen have
borrowed Punch's idea, and humorously nicknamed it the
" Palmerston Pacificator." Then again, at Messrs.
Fawcett, Preston and Co's the same activity prevails. They
are manufacturing, it is understood, about 90 of the largest
class (13. inch) mortars, 60 for the sea, and 40 for land
sefyice. Although, the same bore, the difference in the size
of land and sea service mortars is far greater than most
persons would imagine. For instance, the land service
mortar, when 'finished and ready fbr delivery, weighs about

nistration of this Important auxiliary to the curative art, based upon
scientific principles and extensive practice, is the method used by
Mr. W. D. BELLHOUSE,I7, Pembroke-place, Liverpool, who has,
for many years, devoted his attention to develop the medical appli-
cability of the so euce of Electricity and Magnetism. Read his
pamphlet, which may be had, post free, for two postage stamps. by
addressing W. D. BELLuousx, Medical Galvanist, 17, Pembroke-
place, Liverpool.
Mr. BELLHOUSZ orten finds that the chief cause of unsuccess is
to be attributed to the use of the common small apparatuses, which
he does not recommend for medical use. Galvanic Apparatuses of
all kinds are made and repaired.

YESTERDAY'S MARKETS,

-.--

LIVERPOOL CORN.—To-day's market was well attended, and
millers having so long refrained from active purchases, and being in
general proportionately low in stock, have takes wheats to a con-
siderable extent, chiefly in the fresh descriptions of white and red
American, at prices Id to 23 per bushel higher than could be made
in retail for several days past, and in some cases rather exceeding
the rates quotable on this day week; besides consumptive demand,
a good deal of this grain has been take', for holding over, and the
market closes quite firm at the improvement noted. Flour, thouoh
in somewhat more demand, has met a slow sale on the whole, and
must be stated about Is per brl lower on the week. Indian corn
appears very much neglected; the nominal value of mixed American
on the quay is 42s per 4801hs, but some sales have been made rather
under this figure. In all other articles we have to note an exceed-
ingly flat trade this morning, and must quote oats and barley rather
lower , oatmeal is per load, and beans is 6d per qr, cheaper than on
Friiay last. Arrivals and Exports from Dec, 28, 1855, to Jan. 3,

TETLEY'S EAST INDIA PALE ALE.--
The attention of Hotel Keepers, and of the Trade
generally in L'verpool, is respectfully invited to TETLEY'S EAST
I ',IA PALE ALE, which has established a first-rate reputation
ha the Metropolis, and will be found to compare advantageously both
in quality and price with the finest brands, without exception, to be
found in the market.

Reference is reqUested to the follrwing Extracts from Professor
Alusr)raft's Work on Chemistry, noLiced in the Glasgow Herald,
August 28th. 1854 :

Chemistry. Theoretical, Practical, and Analytical, as applied to the
Arts and Manufactures. By Dr. liluspratt. F.R.S.E , M.R.I.A.
Parts 6to 9 inclusive. Glasgow : William Mackenzie.
The following extract upon a popular subject may be interesting
to our readers :

Pale or East India Ale is nothing more than beer made from
worts extracted from the palest malt and boiled with the palest
and best hops. Every attention is given to the selection of these
materials, in order to ensure the pale colour peculiar to this ale.
"The only localities where this excellent beverage is produced in
i rge quantities are Burton, London, Glasgow, and Leeds. In the
latter place a very la 4 e quantity of Pale Ale has for some years
been brewed lay Messrs. Tetley and Son.

THE WAR,

PRANCE.

We learn that during the recent levee, the
Emperor of the French made a few, but strong,
remarks to the Neapolitan Anibassador, on the
sympathy shown by hig master with the cause of
Russia. The Ambassador, who is very deaf,
muttered. some unmeaning excuse. Itwas thought
that the papers would allude to the tic' atter to-day,
but an intimation has been sent to them not to do
so, as it would serve no object to envenom the
matter by giving it publicity. The Paris papers
have therefore said nothing on it.

An Imperial decree, on the proposition of the
Minister of the Interior, makes one promotion to
the rank of commander in the Legion of Honour,
seven to that of officer, and lid nominations as
knights, among prefects, sub-prefects, mayors;
and national guards ; and another decree, on the
proposition of the Minister of Public Instruction,
gives three promotions to the rank of officer, and
28 nominations as knights, among members of the
clergy, professors in colleges, Ste.

PREMISES, No. Si, RA NH LAGH-STREET, which have been expressly fitted up by them for carrying on the BOTTLING TRADE;
and as they intend to confine themselves exclusively to the ALE and PORTER. DEPARTMENT, and also from the peculiar advantage
they possess in the various Markets,—in Edinburgh in particular,—o' selecting Ales of the finest flavour and quality, they confidently
solcit a trial, being convinced that such as they have now on hand have never been offered in Liverpool at their Prices.
J. L. and Co. feel assured. in offering their CELEBRATED SCOTCH ALES to the Public, that they are furnishing a want hitherto
much felt In this neighbourhood, by supplying Ales—tbs same being Brewed purposely for their Trade, from a pure extract of Malt and
Hop, and possessing a superiority of flavour and quality over any other in use—combined with Low Prices, Lists of which can be had,
and Samples tasted at their Stores, as above.

TO GAS CONSUMERS.

THE PATENT G A S R E G U L A T 0 R
insures a saving of Twenty-five per Cent. on the average upon former consumption, while at the same time a more
brilliant light is obtained, and the unpleasant effects upon respiration, gilding, colours, &c., resulting from the escape of unconsumed gas,
are, by a more perfect combustion, avoided.
Gas is generally delivered from the Street Mains at a pressure of li inch of water, often reaching to 3 inches. Experiments have demon-
strated that when of good quality it is most economically burnt at a pressure of 4-10ths of an bal.
Tbe PATENT REGULATOR, when once adjusted, continues to furnish Gas at one uniform pressure, unaltered by the constant
......*
uctuations of the street supply, and in its action is entirely independent of the number of burners it supplies.
At the undermentioned Offices an Experimental-room is fitted up to demonstrate the results as above stated, where numerous Testi-
monials may be seen, and every information may be obtained.

THE PRIZE PICTURE IN THE LIVERPOOL
ACADEMY EXHIBITION OF 1856.

TO TILE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES.
Sir,—Having very filmY ideas regarding art, will
any of your readers be so good as to it me
whether Pre-Raphaelitism means a slavish attempt
to yender Nature as she is not, by making. that
painfully prominent which she atmospherically
subdues—to give to chestnut hair thd semblance
of unpicked oakum—to " grey" hair the green hue
peculiar to flshlines—and to flesh that of decompo
sition ? to crush a subject into a frame in some
fashion, though at the expense of making parties
sit round a table, with their chins nearly touching
it? and then the attitudes! What would Peter's
be, were he stripped naked, whilst standing before
the " prize.picture?" These things, in:my wonder
went, suggested themselves, and obliged me to
retire to a less crowded spot to have a comfortable
groan by myself.
Should any art-critic have the compassion to
enlighten my benighted intellect, and tell me what
course I must put myself through in order to ap-
preciate Pre-Raphaelitisin, as exhibited at the
Liverpool Academy, I shall feel much indebted to
him; buts pray do not let him quote Ruskin, for
.that gentleman really gets so very hysterical when
descanting upon art, that what he means to say
becomes about as clear as mud to
