CELEBRITY OF THE LONDON OYSTERS.
The acknowledged superiority of the London Oysters, and
the difficulty of obtaining them regularly even in this great
commercial town, has induced the proprietor to arrange with
one of the first Fishmongers of Biilinsgate, from whom he daiiy
receives

AN ABUNDANT SUPPLY OF THE NATIVES;
but, as all the Liverpool Journals have eulogised them, Mr. F.
submits their recommendation rather than his own :
_

" A dish of the finest Oysters we ever remember to have seen
or tasted; we can Tionestiy recovim'end them."—Mercury.
"We can safely vouchfor their fine condition and excellent
-favour; bater cannot certainly be had in London or else-
where."--Standard.

" FERNY'S ORIENTAL DIVAN.—We have seen, and, what is
far better, we have tasted, some of the London Oysters which
Mr. Feeny, of the Oriental Divan, Clayton-square, is now (laity
receiving from London. We recommend our friends to pay the
Divan a visit, and judge of the Oysters by their size, freshness,
and delicious flavour. They cannot form any but the most
favourable judgment of them."—Journal.

RESTORING AROMATIC CHOCOLATE,
PREPARED FROM THE NUTS OF THE SASSAFRAS TREE.
Sold by the Patentee, 12, Southampton-street,

This CHOCO L A T E contains the peculiar virtues
of the Sassafras Root, which ha held in great
estimation for its purifying alterative properties. The
aromatic quality (which is . grateful to the stomach) most
invalids require for b fast and evening repast, to promote
digestion, and to a ciency of this property in the customary
breakfast and er, :nay in a great measure be attributed the
frequency of cases of indigestion generally termed bilious. It

highly beneficial in correcting the state of the

as eruptions of the skin, gout, rheumatism, and scrofula. In
cases of debility of the stomach, and a sluggish state of the
liver and intestines, occasioning flatulence, costiveness, &c.,
and in spasmodic asthma, it is much recommended.

STOOPING of the SHOULDERS and CONTRAC-

by the occasional use of the IMP OED ELASTIC CHEST

above or beneath the dress, and worn without any uncomforta-
ble constraint or impedi tto exercise. To Young Persons
especially it is highl • eneficial, immediately producing an
evident IMPROVE T in the FIGURE, and tending greatly
to prevent the inc ion of PULMONARY DISEASES; whilst
to the Invalid, and those much engaged in sedentary pursuits,
such as Reading or Studying, Working, Drawing, or Music, it
is found to be invaluable, as it expands the Chest and affords a
great support to the back. It is made in Silk; and can be for-

LOCAL MEETINGS.

BIRKENHEAD DOCK COMMISSIONERS.—An adjourned
meeting was held on Tuesday,—Mr. Greene in the chair,
—for the purpose of nominating gentlemen for the new
trust, the nomination being subject to the approval of the
Commissioners of Woods and Forests. It having been
recommended that the names of six gentlemen should be
sent up, out of which Government are to select two, it
was, after considerable discussion, agreed to send up the
following list :—Mr. Greene, Mr. Pritchard, Mr. Hind,
Mr. Barlow, Mr. Adamson, and Mr. Fox. After some
further discussion, it was agreed that the rates of Liver-
pool should be charged in the Birkenhead Docks from and
after this date. One reason assigned for this was, that if
they went to Parliament now for a new bill. with low
rates, it might lead some opposing party to seek for having
the docks always free.
DOCK ComerrrEe.—The sub-committee reported that
on investigating the complaint made by Thomas Rogers,
sawyer, they could not find any reason for the interfer-
ence of the committee. The elongation of the shed at
Coburg Dock for the accommodation of sea-going steam-
ers was ordered, as recommended by Messrs. Mac Iver
and Co. The Marine Surveyor reported that, during the
late gales, the north-wt st light ship parted the north-west
arm of her moorings, but as she did not open her marks
so as to make her a false object, she was kept at her place,
and has since been remoored. Letters were read as to
the services of the life boats during the gales. A long
letter was read from Messrs. Hardman and Co., on the
subject of the complaint last week decided by the corn-
mittea, ac t the einceifiention of octgars per the Ursula.
The committee, after hearing the letter, decided not to
re-open the question. A letter from the omcers or cus-
toms stated that it was intended, in order to meet the in-
crease of the trade of the port, to increase the Water
Guard Department, and requested to have sundry offices
erected for their accommodation. Referred to the sub-
committee of works. The secretary having read the de-
cision of the Council as to the new Dock Bill, a new point
was raised by the chairman, that as the Dock Committee
were proceeding, according to one of the existing acts of
parliament, t obta'n the new bill, the power of the Council
to negative the proceedings could not be exercised except
by a majority of two-thirds. As the opinion of the Town-
Clerk has never been taken on this question, the matter is
delayed, in order to afford time for a conference between
the solicitor of the Dock Committee and the Town-Clerk.

bago. Sold by the Proprietor, G. C. SERJEANT, No. 7, Lo-
vell's-court, Paternoster-row, London; and by all Vendors of

The astonishing success which has crowned the application
of this external Medicine in the most hopeless and deplorable
cases, when the unhappy sufferer had despaired of ever gaining
even the least relief, and this after the ablest advice and every
ether means had completely failed, most justly entitles it to the
attention of the afflicted.
This excellent Medicine, so universally esteemed, is unat-
tended with the least danger or inconvenience; hundreds have
experienced its happy and salutary effects since it was first
introduced; and such are the properties of this invaluable
Specific that persons labouring under the most distressing
Rheumatism, Rheumatic Gout, and Lumbago, and rendered
thereby incapable of assisting themselves, have been relieved
in a few hours.

SUSPENSION IN LIVERPOOL

We deeply regret to state that in consequence of the
very severe pressure of the times, and the serious dete-
rioration of the value of property, the old-established and
highly-esteemed American house of Messrs. Thomas and
Joseph Sands and Co. has been compelled to suspend
payment ; but there are the very strongest reasons to ex-
pect that all the creditors will be ultimately paid in full.
It is only justice to the house of Sands, Turner, and
Co., with which Mr. Thomas Sands is also connected, to
say that that firm will not be affected by the suspension
of the American house.

RAILWAY AFFAIRS.

-ft-
The railway calls for January amount to the enormous
sum of £4,000,000.

The electric telegraph company are making prepara-
tions for having a direct communication between London
and Liverpool. It is confidently expected all the wires
will be laid down against the Ist of January. The new
room will be opened on the Ist of February.
The report and accounts previously presented were
" not approved of" at the Birmingham and Oxford
meeting. In the present state of the law proceedings,
the meeting was again adjourned till the 28th instant.
The Sheffield and Lincolnshire railway have contracted
to supply Manchester with pure water at the rate of 3s.
per 1000 gallons, for which the company is to receive
£2500 per annum.
MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.—On Friday, the temporary
bridge of the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Railway over
the Severn, near Preston Boats, gave way, by which two
unfortunate men were . drowned, one named Edward
Thomas, of Meole Brace, the other Wm. O'Neil, a native
of Ireland ; there was also one horse drowned. _

COLLISION ON THE YORK RAILWAY.—A serious acci-
dent occurred on the York and North Midland Railway,
on Tuesday. As the luggage train from Hull to Wake-
fiela was passing at a slow speed, near the Burton Salmon
station, the mall train from York for London came up,
and raninto the luggage train, and destroyed two vans.
There were in one of these carriages three cattle jobbers ;
two of them were killed on the spot, and the third is in a
precarious state. The engineer and stoker pf tile engine
on the tnall train escaped-unhurt,

LAW INTELLIGENCE,

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, FRIDAY

ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. GARDNER.-SAME V. SAME

These informations relate to a dispute between parties
interested in a' fund which 'had been raised by subScrip-
tion in 1838, for the purpose of erecting a chapel and
school at Birkenhead, in connection with the Established
Church of Scotland. The first information prayed a de-
claration that certain land, which had been purchased
with the money, and the buildings which bad been erected
thereon, might be 'conveyed and dealt with according to
the intention of the parties, expressed in certain deeds
executed in 1839 and 1844. The defendants impeached
these deeds under the Statutes of Mortmain, and denied
that there was any charitable trust to be administered by
the CoUrt..The arguments are not concluded.

Mr.,Moore is to be the new Judge of the Irish Queen's
Bench, and Mr. Monahan succeeds him as Attorney-Gen.
Mr. Hatchell will he Solicitor-General.

In the House of Lords on Monday, Lord Campbell oh-
servea_that it had_been determined, .over and over again,
that a minister of. the Established Church of England, or
a minister of the Established Church of Scotland, was, if
he said_anything from the pulpit detrimental to the cha-
racter of an individual, or anything that led to a breach of
the public peace, civilly and criminally liable for what he
said, just.as much as if he spoke it from the market-cross,
or from a public platform.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, DEC. 14.
Although the violent storm of last week has abated, and the
weather is now fine, we have scarcely any grain vessels in since
Friday ; collectively, therefore, the arrivals of the week are per-
fectly insignificant, which is the more extraordinary as wehave
not a single parcel of Indian Corn or Corn Meal fresh in to re-
port. The 3500 bags of foreign Flour, noted in our import list
below, are from Valparaiso.
Our market to-day was tolerably well attended by town and
country dealers, and the Wheat trade was firm, at an advance
of 3d. to 4d. per 701 b. on the prices of this day week.
Flour also was in fair request at the rates of Tuesday last.
In Barley and Malt no variation.
Beans and Pease rather lower.

In Indian Corn and Corn Meal there was no great business
done, but both articles were held steadily at our last quota-
tions.
