PORTERS WAGES.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
SlR,—The Editor of the Mercury has inserted a letter
in his paper to-day, in which he says the Dock Committee
should follow the example of Messrs. Sandars and Claxton
and Mr. Mathew Gregson, and raise the rate of wages for
their labourers from 18s. to 21s. a week. Now, I con-
sider myself as able as the majority of the porters at the
Albert Dock warehouses to do my work as a porter, and
right content should I be if I could get constant work
there at 18s. a week. Some people think it accords with
their interest to make the labouring part of the commu-
nity dissatisfied ; but I am convinced that many of the
well-disposed of the porters of Liverpool would be quite
content with 18s. a week.—Yours, &c.

All of which have been highly approved of by the most eminent
of the Faculty in Paris, and patronized by the most distinguished
Ladies of the French Nobility. She has been induced, at a
considerable expense, to purchase the sole right of using them
in the Town of Liverpool and its Vicinity, consequently, her
Establishment will be the only one in Liverpool where they
can be procured.

UNDER HER OWN SUPERINTENDENCE,
Thus insuring all that ease, elegance, and superiority for which
her Establishment has so long been eminent, will be sup-
plied on the same terms that English articles are charged by
the Makers to the Milliners, Dress-makers, and Outfitters, who
resell them at a profit under French names, and who, through
knowing nothing of the Business, have to trust entirely to
chance for the articles fitting. By such means many deformi-
ties are occasioned and many valuable lives lost.

After a few words from Mr. SHAW, Mr. JOHN O'CoN-
NELL, and Sir 11. BARRON, the order of the day was read.
Before the Speaker left the chair, Lord J. RUSSELL
stated, for the satisfaction of his own feelings, that he had
observed with the greatest pleasure the noble and munifi-
cent subscriptions which were now raising in the United
States of America for the relief of the distress now pre-
vailing in Ireland. He thought it not unworthy of a
British subject to state that he 'was extremely gratified
that their charitable exertions proved that the people of
the United States were not unmindful of our common

In the committee considerable wrangling took place on
certain amendments proposed on the first and second
clauses, but not pressed by their movers to a division.
The chief discussion, however, took place at the close of

the evening, when Mr. Shaw proposed to expunge the whole
of the second clause, which authorizes the Poor-law Com-
missioners under their seal to administer in certain special

s, relief out of the workhouses to such personsA shall
iven in food only, save in cases of sudden and urgent

Towards the close of the debate the committee became
most disorderly—the uproar beggared all description, and
many speeches were not more intelligible than so much
dumb show. The leaders of the Irish party supported
the amendment with true national zeal and impetuosity,

fighting against the clause as a measure affecting " the
life and property" of every landlord and tenant in Ireland.
A division took place, when the numbers were—
For Mr. Shaw's amendment
Against it

Majority against it
The clause, therefore, stands part of the bill.
The CHAIRMAN was then directed to report progrc

The Cu-stedy of Offenders Bill and the Prisons Bill
were then read a second time, after a short conversation
between Lord Mahon, Sir G. Grey, Mr. R. Palmer, and
some other members. They were ordered to be com-
mitted on Monday (yesterday.)

of the diy'were then disposed of, and

EXPORTATION OF GRAIN AND POTATOES TO IRELAND',
FROM PRESTON.—In ordinary years, very considerable
quantities of wheat and all descriptions of grain are im-
ported into Preston from Ireland ; indeed this trade em-
ploys the greater part of the shipping business in connec-
tion with the Ribble up to Preston. Since the prevailing
scarcity in Ireland, however, several of the vessels have
had to leave that country without cargoes, and for some
time back a considerable export trade of these articles
from Preston has been carried on. During the present
week, considerable quantities of grain of all sorts, includ-
ing wheat, oats, barley flour, American barrel flour, be-
sides heavy freights of seed potatoes, have gone to the..,
sister country.

A fatal accident occurred at Manchester on Monday.
morning, by the fall of a portion of Messrs. Grey's cotton-
mill, Pollard-street. It consisted of a boiler-house, 40
feet by 32, on the ground-floor, and above it a room filled
with jack-frames, the whole being surmounted by a water-
cistern. The accident occurred about ten in the morning,
when about a dozen men were at work in the upper storey.
One half of the floor, with its machinery, and the corres-
ponding half of the cistern, were at once, and without the
slightest warning, precipitated into the boiler-house.
Three young men were afterwards taken out of the ruins,
from amongst the broken machinery, two of whom, being
found to be alive, were taken to the infirmary. The third
was dead. There was about £6OO worth of machinery in
the room, which is destroyed ; and altogether Messrs.
Gray will be losers to the amount of about £lOOO by the
accident.

conversation I had with a resident at the

cleared out, with a view to the requisite alterations being
made to fit it for a Fever Hospital, for which purpose it
had been let. I cannot bring myself to believe that such
is the case, but if it be, the consequences to that densely-
populated neighbourhood and thoroughfare will, I fear,
be most disastrous'. The idea of converting a shed, from
which no separation is made between the walls and the
