WILKINSON'S ANTI-CORROSION PAINT.

JIL WILKINSON, Manufacturer to her Majesty, the
• Hon. Board of Ordnance, the Hon.. East India Company,
Corporation of London„&c., begs particularly to recommend
this valuable and economical Paint, as the most effectual cover-
ing for all exterior purposes of painting on wood, iron, copper,
and lead, as a preservative; on tiling to represent slates; and
on stuccoed or Roman cement fronts or pillars, to represent
stone. It is likewiSe particularly calculated for ships' decks or
bottoms, as it will last four times as long as common paint, and
resist the worm and marine acid. It will prevent iron from
rusting or blistering with the sun, and cannot be rubbed off.
This paint will cover equally well on rough or smooth boards,
thereby preventing the expense of planing. It may be had in
casks of 1121bs. or Mikis., with prepared oil and proper brushes
for each cask, Its use is so simple that any labourer can lay it
on when mixed. The public are particularly cautioned against
any colour that may be imposed upon them for Wilkinson's
Anti-Corrosion Paint, and to order his particularly. J. R. W.
will show certificates from the above Hon. Boards, and he like-
wise bev.s to refer tb the Southwark Bridge as a proof of its me-
rits, having been painted with it nine years, and on houses and
wood fourteen yektis.

Sole Agent for Liyerppol.

T. HALL can give references to several gentlemen in'Liver-
jinni and its neighbourhood, where the Paint has been tried with
the greatest success.

POST•OFFICE.

In answer to a question by Lord G. SOMERSET,
Mr. LABOCCHERE said, he believed it was the intention of
government, during the present session, to bring in a bill to
transmit the trails by railroad conveyance.
Mr. MILNE inquired when the government intended to pro-
ceed with the further consideration of the Registration of Elec-
tors Bill?

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said, the bill would be proceeded
with as early as possible.

CONTROVERTED ELECTIONS.

Sir ROBERT PEEL rose, pursuant to notice, to move for leave
to bring in his bill to .amend the laws.as to controverted elec-
tions. It proposes that the Speaker shall nominate a sort of
electoral committee, of four or six members, who are to appoint
a number of other committees, each consisting of seven, for .the
trial of the respective elections. The present system of stt iking
is to have no place, except where• the challenge is for cause.
The only material difference between the bill as proposed last
night, and the sketch of it as furnished some days sine by the
right hon baronet, seems to be that the assistance of assessors,
which was contemplated in the beginning, is not provided for
by the measure in its present shape.—After a long discussiuu,
leave was given to bring in the bill.
Sir ROBERT INGLIS moved an address to her majesty, on the
subject of the foreign slave trade. The address was seconded
by Mr. IRVING, and, having been acceeded to by Lord PAL-
MERSTON, was unanimously agreed to, after au animated dis-
cussion.
The second reading of the Freemen's Admission Bill was
moved by Mr. WILLINMS ; but the
,motion having been op-
posed, oil account of the lateness of the hour, the bill was post-
poned until Friday.—The house was counted out at a quarter
past one.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.---Fn:DAy

On the motion of :vir. CitEsswELL the Liverpool court of
passage bill was lead a second time.
Petitions praying that any increase of ecclesiastical revenue
may be applied strictly to ecclesiastical purposes were present-
ed by Sir if. TtritirE.i.i. from various parishes in Essex; by Lord
F. EGERTON, from Ormskirk ; by Siy G. CREWE, from Chats-
worth and another place in Derbyshire; and by Mr. E. VI-
VIAN, for Truro.

Lord F. EGERTON presented a petition in favour of the In-
ternational Copyright Bill. The noble lord described the peti-
tion as bearing the signatures of names so illustrious in litera-
ture and science, that he felt almost ashamed to present it, un-
worthy as he was to touch the hens of the garment of such writers.
The petitions were not of the male sex only, but contained
among them names of ladies which would be received with the
deepest veneration and respect in any assembly of the civilised
world. In proof of this he had only to mention the names of
Mary Somerville (hear, hear,) Joanna Bailie, Harriet Martineau
(hear; hear,) Miss Landon, Miss Lucy Aikin, Miss Porter, and
Mrs. Jameson ; these were some of the names of the illustrious
ladies. Among the male writers there were the names of Robert
Southey, Samuel Rogers, Leigh Hunt, Mr, Roget, and last
stood the name of an hon. member of that house, who had re-
quested him to present the petition. • He could assure the house
that the petition was well worthy of attention, as the signatures
(except, indeed, his own) were all those of persons of eminence
in literature. ( Loud cries of Hear, hear.)
Lord J. RUSSELL'. deferred the ontroverted Elections Bill,

in order to afford an opportunity for the second reading of Sir
R. Peel's bill.

Sir J. GRA lIANI hoped that before the budget was brought
on, the government would consider the means of continuing ad-
vances under the New Poor Law Act, fur the building of union
work houses.

Lord J. RUSSELL observed that the sums already advanced
had reached the amount originally contemplated.
The hoUse again went into committee on the Benefices Plu-
ralities Bill, the discussions on which occupied m•tch of the re-
mainder of the evening.—Adjourned.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, MAY 12.

The imports of each article of the Corn trade are, this week, mo-
derate. The fine weather has, at the same time, caused a dulness in
the market, and the business of the week is to a limited amount:
holders, however, have not shown any disposition to force sales; in-
deed, at yesterday's market, there appeared more firmness, both as to
Wheat and Oats, than on Tuesday : $s 2d per 701bs may be considered
the value of the best Irish red Wheat ; and 3s 2d to 3s 3d per 451bs are
extreme quotations for Oats : fair qualities of the latter may he bought
at 3s to 3s Id per 451bs. A few parcels of Oatmeal have been sold at
25s 6d to 26s per 2401b5; and Irish Flour, of prime marks, has brought
53s per 2801hs. There has been a moderate demand for English Bar-
ley at 34s to 37s per imperial quarter ; and Scotch has sold at 4s 4d to
4s 8d per 601bs. Beans and Peas as last noted. Some parcels of Bonded
Wheat have changed hands at 5s 9d to 6s per 701bs; the latter price
paid for the fresh imports from the Baltic.

CORRESPONDENCE.

THE CORONATION.

.`I'O THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STA' ,1111.4 RD.
is a matter or great surprise to me, while nearly
every other town in the kingdom is preparing some demon-
stration of joy to celebrate the coronation of our beloved sove-
reign, that in this, the second commercial town in Eng:and,
not the slightest mentio❑ should be made of a thing of the sort.
Surely, sir, the inhabitants' of this great town will never let sc
interesting a spectacle pass unnotieed.' They will never, I
should hope, so far forget themselves in their duty to a lady and
their Queen. Let them consider that it may lee many years
before they 'nay agai❑ have such an opportunity of displaying
their loyalty, and that most likely (and God grant we may,)
we shall have to celebrate a jubilee before another coronation
takes place. Therefore I hope, sir, that this town will not only
prove itself the second in influence, but the second, if not the
first in its loyalty.-1 am, sir, yours, &c., S. WELLER.
Liverpool, May 14th, 1838.

TO THESHAREHOLDERS OF THE GREAT WHEAL
PROSPER TIN AND CHINA CLAY MINE.

GENTLEMEN,—This is the third letter I have addressed to
you, and 1 hope I have produced the effect which I wished,
viz:—that you have not parted with your scrip. Now it is evi-
dent that my advice has been good, and I am sore you will re-
joice with toe when I tell you, that we have got into *hat the
miners term • " a Bunch of Tin." so that we may fairly calcu-
late upon very good returns. The lode or bunch is eight feet
in thickness. 'There is one obstacle at present to this being
made the best use of, an,d that is, the want of a sufficient quan-
tity of stompers; but I understand the directors are setting
about in good earnest to remedy this defect, and I hope they
will nut be so long in doing that as they have been in finding
out the bunch. I cannot help thinking that this valuable metal
might have been discovered twelve months since, had the same
system been adopted that is now and has been pursued during
the last few months.
The shareholders ought to be called letgether more fre-
quently, and the reports communicated to them by the directors,
although the regulations of the company require certain forms
to be gone through before inure numerous meetings can be held
than those which have been.— Your obedient servant,
AN ORIGINAL SHAREHOLDER.

TO THE PUBLIC.

Owing to the very liberal encouragement which we have
received from our advertising friends, and for which
we beg leave to tender our grateful acknowledgments,
we have come to the resolution TO ENLARGE THE
LIVERPOOL STANDARD, TO THE EXTENT OF SIX AD-
DITIONAL COLUMNS
hitherto we have frequently been under the necessity of
excluding various articles of local interest, and a large
proportion of general news, in consequence of the great
press of advertisements with which we have been fa-
voured. We have often, also, been forced to thealter-
native of materially curtailing our reports as well as
our editorial remarks, on the same account. ?'he pro-
posed enlargement will enable us to embody a greater
share of such intelligence as may be generally useful,
and to extend our reports of the various public meet-
ings, 4-c., which may be held in the neighbourhood,
as well as to present to our readers a mass of amusing
and instructive extracts from modern publications,
which latter we intend to make a prominent feature in
the STANDARD.
It will also afford us great pleasure to avail ourselves of
the opportunity which the contemplated enlargement of
the STANDARD will give us for advocating more fully
those conservative principles for which we have uni-
formly contended. The extended patronage which we
enjoy shall operate as a stimulus to increased zeal and
energy in defence of that glorious cause to which we
feel an ardent attachment—the cause of the Monarchy,
the Church, and the constitution of Great Britain.
We are happy to announce that arrangements are in
progress for considerably increasing the number of
agents for the sale of the LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
When these arrangements are matured, we anticipate
a material increase in our circulation, an advantage
which we feel confident will be duly appreciated by our
advertising friends. We also 'latter ourselves that
the great increase of matter which the STANDARD will
contain in its enlarged form will procure for us ad-
ditional support from the conservative public in
Liverpool.
The proposed enlargement will take place in THE FIRST
WEEK IN JUNE, after Which the LIVERPOOL STANDARD
will contain TWELVE COLUMNS OF ADDITIONAL MAT-
TER PER WEEK, without any increase of price.
