THE DINING ROOM.

Theie occupy the whole of the south front above, and are
three in number. They are on these occasions thrown, as it
were into one by the removal of large folding doors. The
length of the three is 96 feet. The roofs form a segment of
a circle, divided into small and rich compartments, with
ornamental mouldings and castings in relief, gilded on a light
green. The roof of the centre room is what is called pen-
dentive. The furniture is superb. Sofas are fitted into
semicircular recesses, and these as well as the couches and
chairs are of elegant green pattern. The tables are of cor-
responding taste, and the grates and other articles in " the
fire department" are rich and curious. The chimney pieces
are of pure Parisian marble. Here there arc full length
portraits of several of our late monarchs, of the royal dukes,
&c. The window curtains are of satin damask, pending from
massy gilded cornices. From the centre of each of the rooms
hangs a massy chandelier, richly ornamented with crystal.
The chimney pieces at each end of these rooms face each
other, and over each is a magnificent mirror, the optical
effect of which in enlarging the picture on occasion of a
public festivity is admirable.

A N HISTORICAL. FINANCIAL. AND STATIST!.
/1. CAL ACCOUNT OF THE REPUBLIC OF
CHILI, from'lB22 to 1839. By the Retired Go rnor of the
Island of Juan Fernandez.
Captain Basil Hall, R.N., F.R.S., has t published his
sixth edition, entitled, " Extracts from a Journal written on
the coasts of Chili, Peru, and Mexico, in the years 1820, 1821,
and 1822." And in the advertisement to his work, after al-
luding to it and the momentous scenes passing at that period,
says as follows :
" A similar work, or one executed in the same plan, at the
present moment, after an interval of nearly twenty years,
would unquestionably afford matter for one of the most in-
teresting, and, perhaps, useful comparisons between promise
and performance, that the political world has ever witnessed."
—London, March, 1840.
This has emboldened me to offer the above information to
my countrymen : the MSS. are ready for the press, and if
encouraged by a sufficient number of subscribers, those who
are interested with the history of that part of South America,
and more especially the bond holders, may soon have a re-
trospective view of what has been the occasion of the non-
payment of their d;vidends ever since 1826 ; as well as a
faithful and impartial statement of the resources of Chili.
The work will be completed in 2 vols., Bvo., price 205..
illustrated with maps and engravings. Subscriptions received
at the Standard-office, Liverpool; and by Mr. SUTCLIFFE,
Welbee-k-street, Ashton-under-Lyne.

TO THE MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL.

GENTLEMEN,—Such has been the influx of persons to see
the designs for the new Assize Courts during the week, and
such has been the interest created, that I beg to suggest you
will direct them to be exhibited for at least another fortnight.
In the case of St. George's Hall, a week might have been
deemed suLcient, as that building will be principally paid
for out of funds subscribed by individuals for the purpose.
In the case of the new Coves, however, the whole cost
must be defrayed out of the public purse, and the public,
therefore, has a right to see and examine them thoroughly.
There is, moreover, a very general opinion, that the best de-
sign has not been selected, especially as connected with the
interior arrangements. Whether this opinion is well founded
or not, I do not pretend to say, but in a matter of such im-
portance as the present, it is right that the merits and demerits
of the selected designs should be freely canvassed; and with-
out meaning anything disrespectful to the judgment of the corn -
mace who selected the Plans, I think the freely expressed
opinions of scientific men, as well as those of practical men,
barristers, attorneys, and others, will be as likely to give us a
good design as the mere opinion of those who made the se-
lection, and who are probably not wiser in these matters than
any dozen of their neighbours. Many ladies, also, are wish-
ful to see the drawings; but yesterday, such was the crowd
in the room, that numbers of them were unable to get a
glimpse of the designs. Why, also, should the working
classes not be permitted to go in for a week without tickets ?
I trust, therefore, that the time of exhibition will be extended,
or great dissatisfaction will ensue.—l remain, Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
April 30111, 1840. LEGES.

[Our correspondent's suggestion will be eciloedbyhun-
dreds, and we trust so reasonable a request will at once be
complied with. We have had an opportunity of inspecting
the plans, and have not for some time hgd a richer treat; we
shall probably, on Tuesday, put our readeri in possession of
the architectural beauties of the successful designs, and a few
others most worthy of notice.]

SIGHT RESTORED !
NERVOUS HEAD-ACHE CURED !
GRIMSTONE'S CELEBRATED EYE SNUFF,
Under the patronage of his late Majesty, her Royal High-
ness the Duchess of Kent, and the Lords of the Treasury,)
TS universally recommended by the Faculty for its efficacy
1 in removing Disorders incident to the Eyes and Head.
It will prevent Diseases of a Scrofulous Nature affecting the
Nerves of the Head. In cases of Nervous Head-ache it is
completely efficacious, and gives a Natural Sweetness to the
Breath. It may be taken as frequently as other Snuffs, with
the most perfect safety and gratification to the consumer.
Wash the eyes every morning with warm milk and water, to
remove whatever secretion may have been produced during
the night.

Dr. ABERNETHY used it, and termed it the Faculty's
Friend and Nurse's Vale Mecum.

Dr. ANDREWS also recommends its use as a preventive.
(See his report when in Sunderland, published in the Times,
Cheltenham Journal, and British Traveller, in Nov. 1831.)
He says, " the herbaceous quality of the snuff had such effect
on the stomach, as well as the nerves of the head, from the
tenacious sympathy of the membrane of the nose with the
nervous system, that Grimstone's Eye Snuff, when taken
frequently, must prevent any contagion entering the system,
and recommends its universal adoption. Dated Nov. 10,1831.
G. J. GUTHRIE, Esq., F.R.S.—This eminent surgeon
strongly recommends Grimstone's Eye Snuff. See J. 13.

MILK PUNCH

THIS unique and nectarious Liqueur has, for nearly a
century, been duly appreciated at
CHICHESTER, AND THE METROPOLIS.

It was at the former place where the original projector of this
delectable beverage had his abode ; no doubt the corporation
of that ancient borough evinced their good taste, and marked
their approbation of this
GREAT DISCOVERY,
by presenting to him the freedom of the town ; but with that
the present generation have nothing to do ; suffice it to say,
that this ELIXIR

i;now, for the very first time, introduced to the notice of the
bon vivant* of the northern parts of this great Kingdom for
their judgment.
It would be quite in vain to enter into any detail of its
excellencies, yet, thus far may be vouched, that it is composed
of the best . materials, without any adulteration, and, in
flavour, possesses the combined sweetness of the Grape, the
fragrance of the Lime, with the exhiliration of Champagne ;
and while
THE LORDS OF THE CREATION
will find it an
TexHEceIIentGENTLER SEX addenda to the Dinner Table,
may not disdain to sip, the more so as
ROYALTY
has acknowledged its transcendant merit.
It has been intimated
SEA thSICKNEat it willSS, prevent

but of that we will n—ot vouch, never having crossed the
" briny deep" with it in our possession; but should not Pro-
prietors of
PACKET-SHIPS AND STEAMERS
take the hint ? And although it may not produce that " con-
summation devoutly to be wished," yet, sure we are, its
grateful properties are such as will be found to be an excellent
restorative to the palates and stomachs of those who suffer
from the effects of a sea voyage. It will keep in any climate,
and possesses that sure criterion of genuine excellence,
improves by age.
LE GRAND GOURMAND
will find it a most social companion to his Calepash and
Calepee, and the temperate man, while he masticates his
biscuit over a glass of it, will be constrained to eulogise this
incomparable Liqueur.
" Come and try,
Don't like—don't buy,"
is an old saying and a good one ; and as in matters of taste
every man is the best judge, this invitation is given in the full
assurance that, if the Milk Punch only finds its way to the
palate, it will quickly be acknowledged to stand A 1 amongst
the list of those good things which cheer the heart of mankind.

ANNIVERSARY OF THE PROTESTANT
ASSOCIATION.

We regret much our inability to supply copies of the
STANDARD of Friday week to the numerous appli-
cants since the meeting ; but as the interest continues
unabated, we have resolved to publish a corrected re-
port of all the speeches in the form of a pamphlet,
which will be ready to-morrow.

STAMPED SUPPLEMENT WITH THE
" STANDARD."

We may take this opportunity of stating, that with our
publication of Friday will be presented a STAMPED
SUPPLEMENT, gratis, in order that we may be enabled
to give a full report of the first annual meeting of
the YOUNG MEN'S ESTABLISHED CHURCH SO-
CIETY, the interesting proceedings on laying the foun-
dation stone of the COLLEGIATE INSTITUTION, with
the SPEECHES at the DINNER, and the SERMON by
the BISHOP.

We particularly urge upon our friends the necessity of
procuring the STANDARD on the day of publication,
as we cannot ensure the supply of any copies on the
following day.

NEW LITHOGRAPHIC ESTABLISHMENT,
1, BRUNSWICK-STREET, CASTLE-STREET.
ABOVE THE ALBION BANE, LIVERPOOL.

MACLURE AND MACDONALD, LITHOGRAPHERS,
DRAUGHTSMEN, ENGRAVERS, and ORNAMENTAL
PRINTERS to the Queen, Glasgow. respectfully announce
that they will OPEN the above Establishment early this
week, in conjunction with their friend Mr. ALEXANDER
MACGREGOR, who, during the last three years, had a
principal charge in their Glasgow House, and whose talents
as a Lithographer are of the first description, whom they
have assumed as a partner in this concern, and under whose
management the business in Liverpool will be principally
conducted.
The demand in Liverpool for superior Lithography, from
its universal application to Mercantile and Ornamental pur-
poses, has induced them to open this branch, while the cele-
brity their Glasgow Establishment has attained, united to
their unceasing and persevering efforts to maintain and in-
crease the reputation of the Art, assures them of meeting
with that distinguished preference they have so eminently
obtained in Glasgow.
The business will be carried on under the firm of
MACLURE, MACDONALD, & MACGREGOR;
and, every department being filled up with artists of the first
reputation, will ensure promptitude and superior excellency
in the production of every order intrusted to them.
APPRENTICES WANTED for the various departments.
Those for Drawing and Writing will require to lodge speci-
mens, and none need apply unless they display a decided
taste for the Art.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, OCT. j 6.

In the Circular of last week, the aspect of political affairs was
noticed as producing an unfavourable effect upon the market ; the
stringent measures of the Bank of England have contributed again
this week to the depressed state of feeling, and the market has
worn a languid apppearance, with a decline in prices of fully id
per lb on all descriptions of American during the last fortnight,
In Brazil, Egyptian and Surat little or no change can be noticed.
Speculators have taken 350 American, and Exporters 140 Carthagena.

The Moniteur Parisien and Messager contain the following
bulletin :
" PARIS, Oct. 15.—A musket shot was fired at the king,
at six o'clook this evening, at the moment when his majesty
was passing along the quay of the Tuilleries, on his return
to St. Cloud.
" Neither the king nor any of the persons by whom he was
accompanied were hurt.
" The assassin was arrested. He avowed his crime."
Private letters state that the name of the assassin is Darbes.

musket had been overloaded, for it burst, and wounded him
in the shoulder.
It was rumoured that the assassin was one of the advocates
for war who at present so much exalte's, and that, by mur-
dering the king, he calculated on removing the only bar to
the arrival of that calamity.
" Our (Post) Paris correspondent writes, that the king
was fired upon just at the same spot that the woman threw
the stone into the king's carriage some time since. The
assassin's name is Darmes, and he is said to be a native of
Marseilles, about forty years of age. He is reported to be
wounded in his hand by the concussion. The weapon is
alleged to have been a carabine. Another version is, that he

(From the Parispapers of Saturday).
The Capito/e has an article on the above subject, but it
contains little more than a recommendation that a verdict' of
insanity, as in the case of Oxford, should be brought against
Darmes. We look in vain also in this journal for any of
those expressions of satisfaction at the failure of the attempt
which might, we think, have been used even in journals
which are systematically opposed to the dynasty of the reign-
ing Sovereign. They were not compelled to sacrifice their
political opinions, good or bad, by declaring in the interest
of common morality and the national character, that they
were gratified at the failure of such an act of atrocity.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—Tnis DAY.
Of English, Irish, and Foreign Wheat together, we have
received a fair quantity of that grain into this port since
Tuesday last, and a large supply of Oats and Oatmeal from
Ireland, with several parcels of Barley, Malt, and Flour
thence and coastwise, and of States and Canadian Flour up-
wards of 11,000 barrels, which, with previous importations
remaining undisposed of, form a liberal display of samples
for this day's market ; notwithstanding which the Wheat
trade exhibited a rather firmer appearance than on Friday,
and although by no means lively, a moderate extent of busi-
ness was transacted, at the reduced rates then stated. Irish
Flour was ls. per sack, and Foreign 6d. per barrel cheaper,
with a limited sale for all descriptions.

Good English new Malting Barley was held at 38s. to 425.
per quarter, but seemed to attract little notice, and other
kinds were hardly saleable at a decline of 3d. per 60 lbs.
Malt, Beans, and Peas remained nearly the same as describ-
ed last week.

The large supply of Oats at hand, and more expected daily,
caused a further abatement in prices this morning, reducing
our quotations fully 4d. per 451bs. below those of Tuesday
last, at which sales to a moderate amount were effected.

Oatmeal, upon a limited demand, was 2s. 6d. lower than
on this day se'nnight, good Irish new having receded to 255.
to 265. per 240 lbs.

ARRIVALS OF CORN,
From the 13th to the Igth October, 1840, inclusive.
