To-Moßßow, tWednesday,) the sth of October instant, will
appear the First Number of
ripHE LIVERPOOL TELEG RA P 11, a new Liberal
I Weekly Newspaper, forming a comprehensive Compen-
dium of News, Politics, Literature, and Science; to be pub-
lished every Wednesday. •
The Conductors offer no apology ft is addition to the local
press. As a political and literary pr action, its character will
j k
be tested by the severe but unerrin ordeal of public opinion,
and must, of necessity, stand or fall its own merits.
The late extensive modification which the enlightened policy
of the present Administration has effected in the stamp and
paper duties removes, to a great extent, the injurious restric-
tions which have hitherto operated to prevent intellect, enter-
prise, and capital from embarking in this vitally important
branch of the literature of the country. Political information
will now, for the first time during a century, be 'rendered acces-
sible to the great mass of the people. An experiment, on a
great scale, is about to be made of the effects likely to result
from an unshackled Press. Judging from what has been ac-
complished for the liberties of England, and the progress of
good government, during the long period that the Press has
been partially fettered, it may be expected that its expansive
energy, no longer restrained, will be productive of the best
results, in. imparting increased power to those moral agents
which are at present operating to give an improved character to
the physical, moral, and mental condition of mankind.
In the present portentous struggle which is pending between
the friends of liberal institutions on the one hand, and the
enemies of cheap and good government on the other, every
new combatant who enters the arena is viewed with anxious
interest, during the brief period between the avowal of his
motives and his ranging himself beneath that banner under
which he is to serve. The conductors hasten at once to an-
nounce, that the TELEGRAPH takes up its position among the
defenders of the rights of the millions. They enter into the
contest with the elastic feeling arising from the consciousness
of a just cause—the cause of universal and religious liberty.
TheTimeetia els will be the medium of advocating those
important ameliorations in the Government and institutions of
the country, which the altered circumstances, growing intelli-
gence, and increasing power of the People imperatively de-
mand. Among the concessions which a reluctant Oligarchy
must inevitably make to the overwhelming force of an en-
lightened public opinion—and which will be strenuously urged
in the columns of this journal, may be enumerated, a Reform
of the House of Lords; the Civil Institutions of Ireland placed
on the same footing with those of England and Scotland; the
Abolition of the Septennial Act; the Extensiou of the Electoral
Suffrage; the Repression, as far as severe penal enactments
will reach them, of Bribery and Corruption; a searching Re-
form of the Church ; the rights of the Dissenters placed on a
broad and secure basis; the Removal of all Restrictions upon
the Commerce and Industry of the Country; a comprehensive
and liberal system of Popular Education; and such a Reform
in the system of Jurisprudence as will ensure cheap and speedy
justice to all classes of the community. It will be unnecessary
to swell the list with mote of those changes in our social policy,
on which the public mind is firmly and irrevocably made up.
The conductors, while fearlessly discharging their duty to their
fellow citizens, in laying bare tee thinly disguised motives and
designs of those who are so industriously labouring in their
vocation to restore the palmy days of Tory misgovernment and
corruption, will never be found pandering to the passions or ap-
pealing to the prejudices of the community, for the sinister
purposes of obtaining either notoriety, or, at the best, a short-
lived popularity. "No feelings of false delicacy, however, for
the mere conventional etiquette or usages of society will pre-
vent them from vigorously exercising the lash of public scorn
and' reprobation on political terfriversation, lay or clerical de-
linquency.
Heopert for the laws, for the sacred and inalienable rights of
property, and for the pure and unsullied administration of pub-
lic justice, will form rules of action by which their political sen-
timents will ever be directed. To the advocates of despotism.
to the titled or untitled sinecurist and plunderer, to the poor
man's oppressor, to the clerical hypocrite or rapacious pluralist,
the motto of their warfare will be ' War to the Knife." At the
same time, no party or pecuniary consideration will ever tempt
them to step beyond the legitimate limits of fair and honourable
controversy or suffer their colunins tq be polluted by that reck-
less spirit of furious partisanship which, regardless of the sanctity
of private life, drags the unoffending and unwilling victim before
the prying gaze of the public.
In every thing that concerns subjects of national, general,
and local interests, the conductors are determined to make this
journal a manual which-shall present to the notice of its readers
a clear dispassionate view of all events of public importance.
To that department which will be devoted to reports of the Town
Council, public and parochial meetings, a more than ordinary
degree of attention will be paid; and no exertion will be spared
to render minor details and arrangements ample and complete.
The following outline offers a brief synopsis of the manner in
which the contents will be arranged :
Fdreign intelligence, collated and placed under the diffe,:enl
countries.

verbatim reports of the proceedings of both Houses of Parlia-
