WARLIKE MOVEMENTS.

DIE 4th Regiment embarked in safety on board the
Golden Fleece, at Granton Pier, Edinburgh, on Wednes-
day afternoon. The gallant corps was greeted with
enthusiastic acclamations, and about 30,000 of the inha-
bitants accompanied them to the scene of embarkation.
The Niagara, with the 28th Regiment, arrived at
Malta on the 4th of March.
The Ripon, with the Guards, arrived at Malta on March 5.
It is stated that orders have been received in Dublin
for the following corps to hold themselves in readiness
to proceed to the seat of war :-4th Dragoon Guards, 11th
Hussars, and Major Dupuis's brigade of Artillery. An
order, it appears, has been issued to the assistant-surgeons
of the depots serving in the United Kingdom, notifying
that they are to proceed instanter to Constantinople, and
and that their duties, in the mean time, will be discharged
by civil medical practitioners. The 27th. Regiment is
now concentrated in Dublin, previous to immediate em-
barkation for foreign service.
On Friday, the. Queen and Prince Albert, with the
Royal children, left Buckingham palace for Osborne to
inspect the Baltic fleet, at Spithead. They reached the
Clarence Yard, Portsmouth, and embarked in the steam-
yacht Fairy. The instant the little Fairy was under
steam, the Neptune, 120, Captain Hutton, flag of Rear
Admiral Corry, and the Valorous, 16, paddle, Captain
Claude H. M. Buckle, dressed ship, manned yards, and
saluted. The onward progress was marked by the Victory
saluting ; the compliment was then taken up by the
garrison battery, and, as the Fairy emerged from the
harbour's mouth, a magnificent sight broke forth upon
the assembled multitude. Twenty ships of war thun-
dered forth a Royal salute, and, at the same moment, the
sun burst through the heavy clouds and displayed the
mighty engines of peace or war to the delighted spectators.
The fleet did not dress, because of the unpropitious state
of the weather. They hoisted the three ensigns at their
trucks, and manned to topgallant yards, cheering their
Queen with honest and heartfelt enthusiasm.

THURSDAY, 111Aucu 9.

Petitions were presented by, Mr. CHEErmast, from
Rochdale, praying for the abolition of the law of settle-
ment, signed by three county magistrates and upwards of
1,000 others ; by Mr. W. 0. STANLEY, from incorporated
guardians of the city of Chester, in favour of the bill for
abolishing the law of settlement, and for a more equal
mode of rating ; by Mr. BAINES, from the guardians of
the Stockport Union, in favour of the Settlement and Re-
moval Bill ; by Mr. GREENALL, from the mayor and cor-
poration of Warrington, in favour of the establishment of
reformatory schools, and in favour of a decimal coinage ;
and also from the overseers of the township of Warrington,
in favour of the Settlement and Removal Bill ; and by Mr.
GREENE, from the guardians of the Lancaster Union,
against the relief to the poor of each township being borne
by the common fund of such union.
VANCOUVER'S ISLAND.—In answer to a question, Mr.
PEEL said the connexion between the Hudson's Bay Com-
pany and Vancouver's Island had not terminated.
MINISTERS' MONEY.—Mr. FAGAN moved for a com-
mittee to consider the law relating to the rate called
" ministers' money" in Ireland, with the view to repeal
the same, and to provide a substitute out of the revenues
of the Eccleasiastical Commissioners, as a provision for the
Protestant ministers in certain corporate towns in Ire-
land.—Sir J. YOUNG said that after considering the
various remedies which had been proposed from time to
time, and denying that the funds of the Ecclesiastical
Commissioners were sufficient to bear the burden, he made
a proposition, by way of compromise (similar to that con-
tained in the bill introduced last session), for exempting
houses under £lO a-year and houses hereafter built,
making an abatement of 25 per cent., and changing the
mode of collecting the rate. He moved, formally, as an
amendment, that the acts relating to ministers' money
and the Church Temporalities Act be read with the view
of obtaining, by a committee, leave to bring in a bill to
carry the proposition into effect.—After some discussion
the amendment was carried by 105 to 90.
EXECUTIONS.—Mr. CRAUPURD obtained leave to bring
in a bill to enable executions to issue in any part of the
United Kingdom, under a judgment obtained in any court
in England, Scotland, or Ireland.
NEW WRITS.—Lord J. RUSSELL moved that no war-
rants for new writs for Barnstaple, Cambridge, Canter-
bury, Hull, Maldon, and Tynemouth be issued before Fri-
day, the 17th March.—The motion was agreed to, after a
few words from Mr. DISRAELI.

The second reading of the Public Prosecutors' Bill was
ordered to be postponed for three weeks.
The Marine Mutiny Bill was read a second time.
The Consolidated Fund (£8,000,000) Bill was read a
third time and passed.
The Mutiny Bill passed through committee.

THE A.IITHORITY AND DUTIES OF WATER BAILIFFS.

Mr. MANN brought forward his motion for the appoint-
ment of a special committee to inquire and report as to
the authority and duties of the water-bailiff, and the
necessity of providing rules for regulating the anchorage
of vessels in the River Mersey ; also, as to the necessity
for bylaws for the regulation of boat and boatmen carry-
ing passengers to and from vessels in the river, and the
adoption of scales of rates for such employment. In
bringing it forward he said he was pressed on by the
Underwriters' Association, the Shipowners' Association,
and the Pilots' Committee. He denied any intention to
throw reflection on the Finance Committee.—Mr.
LiT-
TLEDALE seconded the motion.—The appointment of a
committee was carried by a majority of 17 to 13.
Several additional applications by corporation officers
for increase of salary, not upon the printed paper, were
postponed till next meeting. An application, from the
ratepayers of St. Anne-streetfor a clock on Trinity Church
was referred to the Finance Committee, and the meeting
adjourned. •

This fine vessel, built in the end of 1652, by Messrs. Caird

after undergoing thorough repair, and has been abandoned to
the insurers.
The Engines and Boilers have sustained very trifling injury,
and the Hull, &c., are susceptible of complete refitment and
repair at a moderate outlay; which, with the low Upset Price
at which the Vessel is to be exposed to competition, will afford
a good oppportunity for a purchaser to realise a large profit,

FRIEND S.

OR all things are changing,
And friends of lo,day
May leave us to-morrow
Alone on our way;
When trouble's before us
Their numbers are few,
For clouds disperse friends,
As the sun does the dew

Butterflies flitting from
Flower to flower,
Are seen not when storms come,
They bide from the shower;
• They sip only sweets in
The sunshiny day,
When winter draws nigh they
No longer will stay
E'en so 'tis with friends, for
While life's sky ie blue,
So long will they prove to
Us tender and true;
But oh ! should a dark cloud
O'ersbadow the sky,
And our late joyous hearts
Be oppress'd with a sigh,
In vain may we hope that
Our friends will remain,
They'll leave us till fortune
Is smiling again !

THE LATE E. MOLYNEUX, ESQ.

WE regret to record the demise of Mr. EDMUND
MorrxErx, one of the Aldermen of the borough, and
long regarded with love and esteem as one of the most
benevolent and public-spirited of our fellow-townsmen.
The melancholy event took place on Thursday last, at his
residence, Childwall-hall, to which, for some time past, he
had been confined through illness, which, though severe,
was not at first considered of a dangerous or fatal character.
In the death of Mr. MOLYNEUX, the community of
Liverpool has lost an eminent and excellent citizen, the
world a most worthy man. Upright and honourable in
all his transactions, through his liberality and munifi-
cence he ably supported the high reputation included in
the title " a British merchant ;" and by his affability and
kindness he justly earned for himself the character of a
Christian and a gentleman. Deeply imbued with the
spirit of Christian charity and love, his benevolence was
extensive, though neither reckless nor undiscriminating,
and to all the public charities he was at once a willing
and a liberal contributor. Foremost among the objects
of his judicious assiduity, plans for the dissemination of
scriptural knowledge and institutions for the spread of
Christian education ever claimed and received a large

STEAM COMMUNICATION
\ BET WEEN
"":, LIVERPOOL AND ANTWERP.
• 4, •
- Next Summer, as soon as the Screw Steam-
ships now building for the Atlantic are completed, a regular
STEAM COMMUNICATION will be established, by first-
class steamers, between LIVERPOOL and ANTWERP.
Goods will be received by these Steamers at Antwerp for
transhipment at Liverpool by the Steam-ships to the United
States; and the transhipment at Liverpool, as in the Com-
pany's Trade between Havre and Liverpool, will be free of
expense to the Goods.
It is not intended by the Establishment of this Line to cur-
tail in any way the facilities already possessed by the French,
German, and Belgian Shippers of Merchandise to America
from Havre, via Liverpool, but as an additional means for
the expedition of their Goods.

WHITING-WRITING-WRITING - It
is an undoubted fact that 23, Great George•street, is
the only Establishment in Liverpool where the proper styles
of Commercial Writing, and Ladies' Angular Running-hand
are perfectly taught. 31r. O'DWYER has made more good
writers in Liverpool for the last 13 years than any other teacher
professing the art. As a Writing Master he is unrivalled and
unequalled in Liverpool. To persons who never wrote, a good
hand is guaranteed in Twelve Lessons.—For card of terms
apply at 23, Great George-street, opposite Dr. Raffles' Chapel.

TIMBER.

There have been no arrivals of timber during the week,
and the transactions are confined to the stock in the
dealers' hands. In Baltic there has been little done, for
although the sudden fall in price which took place last
January, owing to so many cargoes arriving together,
has been recovered, yet those then yarded, if sold at pre-
sent rates, would entail heavy loss to the shippers, who,
therefore, prefer waiting the result of the stop to the
supply which will follow the event of war. There have
been no sales of deals from the quay except a broken
cargo, which has been forced on the market, and for
which, from the reasons stated last week, £l2 only was
obtained, a quantity of square timber of small scantling
going with them 74d. over the average. Three cargoes
have arrived during the week from St. John, N. 8., being
nearly the finish of the year's import from that province,
and these have been yarded on importers' account without
being offered for sale. The increased cost of bringing
wood to the shipping ports, caused by the great advance
in provisions and labour, the scarcity of shipping, and if
a war breaks out the probable deficiency of the Baltic
supply, induce holders to be firm in their pretensions—
more especially as present rates of deals do not anything
like bring out invoice cost, and are much lower than the
commonest square timber, besides all the advantages of
sawing, carriage, and measure in their favour. Quebec
pine selling from 26d. to 27d. per cubic foot, while, at
present prices, deals are 18d. to 19d.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1854-03-14

a vote of thanks to the Venerable Archdeacon Brooks was
carried in a burst of enthusiasm.

The Venerable Archdeacon BROOKS, in returning
thanks, prided himself in being the founder of the Savings'
Bank in this town, which, from an humble beginning, now
contained three-quarters of a million in deposits. It had
been the means of reclaiming many dissolute persons, and
enabling them to leave, at death, a sum for the support
of their wives and families. It was conducted by gentle.
men who were assiduous in their attendance, and he
thought that they well deserved the best thanks of the
town. In reference to what his lordship had said about
the medical profession, he called attention to the fact that
this was the first mayoralty when the honorary surgeons
of our charities had been invited to the Mayor's table,
and he could state that they had deeply appreciated the
compliment. The Mayor, by that act, had shown that he
could give honour where honour was due.
The BISHOP wished Mr. Banner " many happy returns
of the day," and the meeting broke up.

REVIEWS OF BOOKS.

Blackwood's Magazine. Edinburgh: Blackwoods
The commencement of a new year is usually the
time for making some advance in periodical litera-
ture, new magazines being started, and old ones
coming out with promises of increased attraction.
" Blackwood," however, maintains the lead in defi-
ance of all rivalry ; and, with nearly forty years on
its head, displays all the freshness of juvenile
vigour. The number for this month opens with a
paper descriptive of Persia, a country rendered
more than ordinarily interesting by recent events,
and which may occupy a somewhat prominent
position in the coming struggle. The particulars
are taken from a narrative of two attaclufs of the
French embassage in Persia. The quiet story of
" The Quiet Heart" is continued in a second part,
which gives goodly promise of its further progress.
" The English at Home—by a Frenchman Abroad"
is a very amusing review of a work by M. Wcy, an
intelligent Frenchman, who spends seven weeks in
England, and gives a really fair description of what
he saw and heard, and his opinions of a people
whom he describes as " a large class of old scholars
competing for the prize of ()Tod conduct." From
" The Past and Future of China," we learn that so
far from the present rebellion in the flowery land
being an extraordinary event, such revolutions have
often occurred, more so indeed than in any other
nation, there having been a succession of twenty-
two dynasties, and, consequently, as many great
revolutions in the period of four thousand years,
comprised in the annals of that empire. Following
the series on " the narcotics we indulge in," is an
article on " the beverages we infuse," descriptive of
Tea, Coffee, &c. The magazine concludes with an
ablv written political essay on " the Aberdeen
Cabinet," showing the mischief which has been
committed by the vacillating policy in the earlier
part of the Eastern affair, and predicting serious
consequences from the evident determination of
Russia to set at defiance the lukewarm resistance
given by the Western Powers. The article is well
worthy of perusal, though we cannot coincide with
the writer in all his views. 'We subjoin two
extracts:

PROVISION MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL, JAN. 6.—For beef the demand has not im-
proved, and the sales for the week are on a limited scale, at
about former prices. Pork has attracted more attention, and
some sales of French, for forward delivery, at a slight advance,
are reported. New bacon sells slowly at the quotations; old
is lower Is, without leading to increased activity. A low sale
of lard has been made to clear out an old parcel, and the
market is now firmer. Cheese is in fair request; the low
qualities are, however, less sought after than the better
descriptions.
JAN. 9.—The transactions in butter were to a large extent,
and prices advanced fully 3s per cwt. last week. Speculators
took a fair share, and the dealers bought more freely. The
advices of small supplies into all the Irish markets continue,
and stocks held both here and in Manchester are very
moderate for this season of the year. The import is falling
off considerably, and as the present severe weather will
operate against the aftermake, holders, anticipating higher
rates, now demand a further advance of Is to 2s per cwt. on
the finest description. The most esteemed brands of Water-
ford, Carrick, and Clonmel, 102 s to 101 s; Kilkenny, Carlow,
and Wexford, 1006 to 1023; Belfast, 97s to 995; Limerick,
95s to 986 ; Sligo, 95s to 9Ss ; and pickled Cork, 2nds, 96s per
cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland, from the 31st Dec.,
1853, to the 6th January, 1854, 4.141 firkins, 3 kegs, 257
crocks, 92 boxes, 102 barrels butter, 41 bales bacon, 1 hhd.
