BOROUGH OF LIVERPOOL.
PUBLIC MEETING.
AT a MEETING of the Inhabitants of Liverpool, at
the Amphitheatre, in Great Charlotte-street, the 2d
October, 1841, called by the fallowing public notice of the
Mayor :

" Having received a Requisition, as follows, most nume-
rously and respectably signed,—` We, the undersigned Inha-
bitants of the borough of Liverpool and its vicinity, consi-
dering it important for the two Houses of Parliament not to
be prorogued until full inquiry into the causes of the present
National Distress has been instituted, do respectfully request
that you will convene a Town's Meeting, fo afford the Mer-
chants, Traders, and others of this great community an op-
portunity of expressing their sentiments on the subject, and
of Memorialising her Majesty the Queen.'
I do appoint Saturday next, the second day of October,
at the hour of seven o'clock in the evening, at the Amphi-
theatre, in Great Charlotte-street, for a Meeting of the In-
habitants, to take into consideration the subject of the
quisition, and to determine in favour of or against the pro-
posed Petition to her Majesty as to the Meetin; shall appear
proper and expedient :" -
THOMAS BOLTON, Esq., Mayor, in the Chair,
It was moved by Mr. RICHARD KELLY, seconded by
WILLIAM RATHBONE, Esq., and resolved unanimously,
That we have heard, with surprise and despondency,
that the Legislature have declined to take into coiisi-
duration the present alarming condition of the social and
commercial interests of the country •, that the appalling
destitution of the Working-classes all over the country.
to which our own town forms no exception, imperatively
demands that this reckless and impolitic determination be
recalled; that, irrespective of all party distinctions, and
united only by our determined opposition to all Monopolies,
we are met to PROTEST against this heartless and unneces-
sary delay ; that it is our opinion that the present National
Distress is mainly, if not altogether, to be attributed to the
Restrictions which our Commercial Tariff has placed upon
the National Industry ; that, of these Restrictions, those
which, prevent the people from exchanging their Manufac-
tures in the open• Market of the World for Food, so as to
supply the wants of a population increasing at the rate of
400,000 per annum, are the most severe in their effects, and
that no sufficient relief can be afforded otherwise than by an
,immediate consideration of our Tariff, commencing with the
CORN and PROVISION LAWS, with a view to the adoption of
the principles of FREE TRADE.
It was moved by Mr. ROBERT JONES, seconded by LAW-
RENCE HEYWOR.TR, Esq., and resolved unanimously,
That we fully concur in the admissions made by Lord
Stanley, the present Secretary for the Colonies, at his Re-
election for North Lancashire, that the operation of the Corn
laws is, Ist, to raise the price of Food above its natural level;
2d, to increase the Rent paid to the Landlord proportionally
to that price ; and, 3d. that the price of Food has no effect
on the rise and fall of Wages : that, from these admissions,
we are confirmed in our opinion, that the Landlord (not the
Farmer) is unjustly protected by a law which raises his Rent
above its equitable value ; that the Consumer is taxed to pay
for that Protection ; that, as Provisions form, by far, the
largest item in the expenditure of the Working-class, so the
Working-class is thus Taxed more heavily than any other.
We are further of opinion, that the Corn laws not only
directly Tax the Wages of Labour, but that they indirectly
diminish their amount by destroying the natural proportion
which the supply of Labour bears to the demand ; and that,
by endeavouring to limit us to a single country, as the source
of the national subsistence, they produce unnatural fluctu-
ations, both in price and supply, disappoint calculations of
the Farmer, fetter Trade, derange the Currency, and render
the prosperity of all classes dependent upon the most variable
climate in the world.

It was moved by Mr. CHARLES HOLLAND, seconded by
the Rev. WILLIAM GILES, and resolved unanimously.
That the Petition embodying and supporting the Reso-
utions of this Meeting, now read, be adopted, and be
transmitted to her Majesty the Queen, signed by the Mayor
on behalf of the Meeting.

- THOMAS BOLTON. Mayor.
The Mayor having left the Chair, the thanks of the Meet-
ig were unanimously voted to him.

MONS. LE DRAY and SON, SURGEON-DENTISTS, of

spectfully inform their Patients, the Gentry and Inhabitants

Among the various disorders of the month, there is non-
more destructive than Scurvy, which, on first entering the
gums, causes them to bleed on the most trifling occasions.
A soft substance inevitably accumulates around the necks
of the Teeth, penetrates into the Gums, which gradually
waste away, and the Teeth then become loose, and drop out
whole from their sockets. Could such persons only see the
horrid state of their teeth and gums, or for a moment catch
the odour of their own breath, they would not hesitate to
seek immediate relief. To professional men, shopkeepers,
and tradesmen generally, who have much intercourse withl
the refined and fashionable world, a good state of the mouth.
