TLIE LIVERPOOL TowN DuEs.—Liverpool, Feb. 14.
—Active preparations are being made to get up a power-
ful opposition to the Government hill, introduced by
Mr. Lowe, the Vice-President of the Board of Trade.
A special meeting of the town c4uncil will be called at
an early day, to take the question into consideration,
and to devise means for averting, what one of the local
councillors prophetically designated, the threatened
"doom ;" a special meeting of the Liverpool select vec-
try is also to be convened for the same object; a town's
meeting is to be summoned ; and every possible influ-
ence is to be brought to bear against the bill.

flying. On communicating with the Anna Maria
the captain asked to be taken off, as his vessel had been
dismasted several days previously in a severe gale
and was Makin. By the assistance of the boats of the
Ericsson the master and crew, with some of their psi-
vats effects, were accordingly taken on hoard the
steamer. The captain of the Dutch vessel having re-
ported that his ship was leaking, Captain Lowber sent
his first mate and carpenter on board for the purpose of
scuttling her at once, as she lay in the fair way track of
vessels bound up channel ; but, after inspecting the con-
dition of the Dutchman, the mate reported that the ves-
sel was sound, and had only 7 inches of water in her
hold, which had apparently accumulated from the heavy
seas which had washed over the decks. As there ap-
peared, therefore, a possibility of saving the ship and
cargo, hawsers were immediately put out, and the second
mate and four of the crew of the Ericsson put on board.
By these weans (though with great difficulty, arising
(rota the bad weather and the constant breaking of the
hawsers), the Maria Anna has been towed a distance of
340 miles into the Southampton Docks, and has been
saved from apparent inevitable loss. The Maria Anna
was bound frog London to Swyrna, with a valuable
cargo of spirits, wine, anchoo, oalga, and other meg'-
, eitadise.

value of all kinds was well supported.
We had s very slow inquiry for barley and malt, at thil
late decline in value. •
There was a moderate demand for oats, the arrivals of
which were small, at late rates.
Deans and peas wore dull, but not cheaper. Flour was
inaetive, on former terms. Upwards of 17,000 barrels h.y
arrived from the United States.
