The jury, after five minutes' consultation iu their box,
returned a verdict of guilty against both prisoners. Great
sensation prevailed in court, when _

ip, putting on the black cap, proceeded to
sentence of death. He said,--Ann Rimmer and
Sarah Rimmer, you have been convicted by a jury of your
country, upon the clearest evidence, of the crime of ad-

is shockini to think that the person to be murdered was
the child of one of you, and was the niece of the other. I
will not harrow up your feelings by dilating_ upon the

that you be taken hence to the place you came from, and
that you be there severally hanged by the neck till you be

rent indifference, were then removed from the dock.

THE LTVERPOOL STAND.A.IID, TUESDAY, Ai UST 24, 1832,

rant of Dr. GRAHAM'S

In the acts of violence which happened on Tuesday,
the 29th, the Irish party most unquestionably took
the initiative and provocative part. It was by no

accident that some sixty men and boys were con-

gregated together in the streets of Stockport that
night, armed with pokers, soldering irons, and

Italian iron heaters, and apparently obeying known
signals. It was by no accident that the violence of
the increasing crowds of Irish were directed to the
Protestant schools, and to the house of Dr. GRA-

HAM, an esteemed magistrate of the borough.
The recklessness and indifference of the Irish mob,
in throwing brickbats and other missiles; the brutal

and barbarous manner in which they treated a ser-

the cries of insult and

defiance with which they assailed the English and
Protestant part of the community ; their coarsely
expressed determination to show the English that
they (the Lish) were masters of the town where
they had fled for shelter and support from their
own afflicted country ; these things combined

were sufficient to excite natures much more phleg-
matic than those of Englishman, and men of much
calmer judgment and power of forbearance than
are usually the components of street mobs. That

the English should have retaliated, therefore, is no
matter of surprise ; although any retaliation was
illegal, and that which actually took place demanded
the severe punishment with which it was visited.

Let us hope, however, that out of this evil may
come good ; that the Irish population of our great
towns may learn from the proceedings at Stockport
that they can have no chance of success in measur-
ing force for force with the Protestants ; and that

their clergy, who have so much power over them

for good or for evil, will enforce upon them the
great duty of not violating those laws by whose
impartial administration they are so effectually pro-
tected from the consequences of their own mischiev-
ous acts. It is but justice to say that Mr. FISHER,
the priest, whose property was sacrificed, seems to
have been unoffending in the matter. Not till we
see the Irish Roman Catholic Clergy, however, set-
ting vigorously and earnestly to work, to instil into
their flocks a feeling of the vital importance of re-

spect for the laws,• can we entertain any certain as-
surance that scenes so deplorable and disgraceful as
the Stockport riots will not recur.

diggings. The total amount obtained in New South

Sydney during the first year of the gold discoveries was
14,015 ; but 6,733 had left again, principally for Port
Philip.
The accounts from the diggings were still encouraging ;
and the rain that had fallen would facilitate operations.

PRIESTL-EY'S COUGH AND ASTHMATICAL
DROPS.
This invaluable Medicine immediately relieves Coughs, Colds,
Hoarseness, Difficulty of Breathing, and Huskiness in the
Throat.
These Drops are also the best preventive that Can be taken
against spitting of blood and affection of the lungs. Persons
troubled with asthma are considerably relieved by taking a few
doses of the drops, as they tend to promote expectoration and
remove viscid phlegm. }or the speedy cure of the Looping
cough, they are no less efficacious. Those who are troubled
with that unpleasant tickling in the throat, which deprives
them of rest night after night, by the incessant Cough which
it provokes, will, by taking one dose, find immediate relief;
and one bottle, in most cases, will effect a cure.
Sold in bottles, at ls. lid., 2s. 9d., and 4s. 6d., at 52, Lord-
street, Liverpool.
This Medicine is safely packed and sent by Carrier or Rail
to any part of the Country, upon receipt of a Post-office Order.

POWDERS is peculiar to himself, and combines scientific skill
with great accuracy;
.and though numbers of people unac-
quainted with the business, and.. others, have, of late years,
attempted imitations, they have invariably been found to be
spurious compounds, neither possessing the agreeable flavour
nor the medicinal properties of the Seidlitz Waters.

HORTICULTURE.

The Gardeners' Chronicle has been recently making
well-directed efforts to expose the malpractices of certain
seedsmen who are by no means remarkable for the excel-
lence or genuineness of the articles which they vend.
This exposure has occasioned great sensation amongst
horticulturists, both amateur and professional, and will
doubtless in the end prove most beneficial. When such
nefarious practices are perpetrated as purchasing utterly
useless seed for the purpose of baking it, to mix with good
seed in order to increase the quantity, it is time to open
the eyes of the public. Cases have been proved of twice
the selling price having been given by dealers for various
kinds of seed, mixed largely with seed of a worthless cha-
racter, the germ of which has been destroyed by heat or
other means, thereby enabling the unfair dealer to under-
sell his more honest competitor. This, however, is not
easily perceived, because most persons are in the habit of
sowing so thickly. that if half the seeds sown come up
they must be weeded out; but this does not lessen the
dishonesty of the practice, nor the injury done to the fair
trader, who seeks the best market, uses his experience in
purchasing genuine articles, and then charges a fair per-
centage for profit. We have adverted to this subject
principally because we know many gentlemen who have
been tempted by the enticing advertisements of the Lon-
don seedsmen to purchase their supply from that place.
It is well known to those who have dealt with Liverpool
seedsmen that they have always given satisfaction. We
can testify to the careful anxiety with which they test the
samples and prove the bulk of the seeds they purchase.
The proof is easily made. Take 100 seeds of any kind ;
sow them in a pot, with an equal, but very slight covering
of soil ; place the pot in the hothouse or stove, and care-
fully count the number of seeds which vegetate. What-
ever is short of the 100, is the per-centage of bad seed. At
this season of the year it is common in this neighbourhood
to have a great space in the nursery hot-houses filled with
trial-pots, which receive the most careful attention.
