TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD

SIR,—If I recollect right, your radical cotemporary,
ltfer-
curius, made it matter of boasting, in days of yore, of the
extraordinary purity of his broad sheet ; and, lest the minds
or morals of his juvenile readers might he contaminated, he
excluded from his unsullied pages all advertisements of a
certain description, to wit, what are vulgarly denominated
quack advertisements. But I only noticed, the other day,
one column of the journal aforesaid nearly occupied by soma
of the most objectionable of this sort. Temporamutantur,
et nos mutamer ab illis. Pray, Mr. Editor, can you account
for this extraordinary change? In my humble opinion, it
either arises from the love of mammon, or else to fill his
vapid slop-pail, for lack of something better ; or most pro-
babably to the above reasons uuited, to cause such an unusual
effect or innovation upon the system of our ancient friend.

AWFUL ACCIDENT AND WONDERYUL ESCAPE.—On
Tuesday afternoon a most calamitous and fatal accident, yet
marked by the almost miraculous escape of one of the men
who had nearly fallen a victim to it, occurred at the Hately
Heath colliery, belonging to Messrs. Bagnall, near West
Bromhich. Three men, named Thomas Ward, Thomas
Gibbons, and Richard Knight were employed in bricking
the shaft of a pit, upon a scaffold, about nine feet from the
bottom, when a man, named John Holden, who had just
come out of the pit, hearing a great noise, turned round,
and saw the banksman, James Lewis, and a quantity of
bricks falling down the shaft. He immediately ran to the
shaft, and found the banksman hanging in it by his shoe,
which had providentially caught some projection at the
mouth of the pit. Holden instantly seized him by the legs,
and dragged him up out of the shaft without his having sus-
tained any injury! Strenuous exertions were then made to
rescue the three unfortunate men below, and Holden imme-
diately went down the pit, but unhappily only to discover
that the accident had proved fatal to them all ; they were all
three found lying at the bottom of the pit, and quite dead ;
" knocked all to pieces," Holden said, " there being scarcely
a bone about them but what was broken." An inquest was
held on the bodies of the three unfortunate sufferers on
Thursday last, when a verdict of " Accidental Death" was
returned, with a deodand of 10s. on the bricks.—Wolver-
hampton Chronicle.

MADAMP, LAFFARGE. —A letter from Tulle, in the
Gazette dea Trihunaux, says,—" M. and Mme. Ljotand
have applied to the tribunal of this place for a special cura.
tor to be named for Marie Cappelle, and M. Lacombe,
notary of this place, has been appointed accordingly. He is
summoned to appear on the sth
.of August, the day of the
proceedings beginning. It is still uncertain whether the
prisoner will appear or not. She is often subject to attacks
of illness, but they are of short duration. The statement
made in some Paris papers that she bad poisoned herself,
when it came to her knowledge, caused her a violent nervous
attack. It is not true that she is often visited by the ladies
of Tulle. She has now only a few partisans in this place. It
is certain that immediately after the trial she will be removed
to the central house of detention for females at Clermont, in
the Oise.

AFFRAT BETWEEN THE SPANISH COAST GUARD AND
Barrisn SAlLORS.—Algesiras, July 9.—On the night of the
ith two vessels from Gibraltar were about to land contraband
goods on our coast, when the Spanish coast guard, cruising
in these seas. perceived them, and were about to seize them.
The smuglers signalised, and an Englishman-of-war lying at
anchor in Gibraltar Bay immediately sent out a sloop armed
with fifty or sixty men, who gave chase to one of our coast
guarders, which, to get away from the English Royal Ma-
rines, made for Cape St. Felix, where there exists a Ilse of
Spanish customs' officers and a few troops. These assumed
a threatening attitude in order to obtain respect for the
Spanish territory ; but the English landed and attacked
them severely, wounding an officer of the Carbineers, the
_
head of the detachment. Not contented, they seized one of
the customs' boats, and made off. Yesterday the Command-

Dashing along the indented shore, we passed Gaily Head,
Glandore Bay and harbour, and Castlehaven, a little to the
westward of which last, rising from the sea, are the two re-
markable rocks called the Stags, perpendicular basaltic for-
mations, strongly resembling two old castles, with each a
square tower, battlements, and bastions. Cape Clear was
now visible, on a small island, forming (when seen from the
seaward)—with another of larger size, between it and the
main land, called Innisherkin—the most southern point or
promontory of Ireland. The Fastnet Rock, to the south-
west of the Cape, and rising in solitary sulkiness in the ocean,
a considerable distance from the land, was now in view, and
we steered outside of so ugly a customer.
The distance from Liverpool to Cape Clear is about 303
nautical miles, and this we had accomplished in about 37
hours. We had upwards of 200 miles to run thence to Li-
merick, Cork being about the " half-way house " ; and, had
the weather continued moderate, we should have accom-
plished the trip in 52 to 54 hours, including the navigation
of the Shannon. It was, however, otherwise ordered ; and
it may be here remarked, that the trip from England to Li-
merick is by coasting sailors denominated " the American
voyage," from its being considered by them as perilous, on
the average of passages, as crossing the Atlantic itself.
Cape Clear is the last point of land, in Europe, which many
a seaman and passenger beholds with " long and lingering
look," when leaving his native shores ; and often th first
he joyfully descries when homeward bound, just before
" For England, when, with fav'ring gale,
The gallant ship up channel steers."
The whole of the western coast of Ireland thence to Urris
Head, and even to Malin, at the northern extremity of the
island, is indented by numerous bays, estuaries, or arms of
the sea, of various form and extent, penetrating the land
eastwardly, and dividing it into a variety of fantastically-
formed peninsulas and headlands, round which are copiously
strewed, in many parts, small islands and rocks, of a steep
and dangerous character. It is, for the most part, as are
the islets, an iron-bound coast, composed of precipitous
limestone rocks, of a wild and rugged aspect, that have for
ages withstood the fierce and frequent assaults of the Atlan-
tic. The prevailing gales from the westward here lash the
wide expanse of waters into steep and angry waves, that with
deafening roar spend their fury amidst the beetling cliffs
and caverned recesses of this stupendous and protecting
sea-wall. Daring a storm from any point between tile
S.W. and N.W. (inclusive), the sea presents, from the emi-
nences that overlook it, a sight at once fearful and sublime;
as I shall hereafter more particularly describe in noticing a
short visit to Kilkee, a watering-place north of the estuary
of the Shannon. Beset, too, with many sunken as well as
visible isolated rocks, this coast is highly perilous to the
mariner if it becomes a lee shore ; for though there are many
natural havens, they are mostly what are called " blind har-
bours," from its being difficult or impossible to distinguish
their entrances with certainty during gales, when the land is
generally covered with thick and deceptive haze. The danger
is increased by the backset, from the rugged shore, of the
waves,—which, saving in the more placid summer months,
have seldom time to subside after one gale before they are
roused by another, probably from another point of the com-
pass,—which produces a cross and precipitous sea, often more
trying for vessels than the long roll, in one direction, of the
outward. unimpeded ocean during the severest storm. Ire-
land, indeed, may, with reference to its western coast, be
termed the great breakwater of England, at least from the
Clyde to the British Channel ; and there can be no doubt,
that but for that island the port of Liverpool, in particular,
would be blocked up with sand, and much of the low land to
the north of it be encroached upon by the ocean.
Shaping our course, when off Mizen Head, to the N.W.,
we successsively passed, before nightfall, the mouth of Bantry
Bay, historically associated with the purposed descent of the
French armament, many years ago, upon that part of the
Irish coast, and the disastrous loss of nearly the whole of
the ships employed in that reckless and unsuccessful expedi-
tion. The island of Dursey, the western termination of the
county of Cork, forms the northern outer point bounding
this arm of the sea, near which are three remarkable rocks,
the Bull, the Cow, and Calf. Beyond them is the wide
estuary of the Kenmare River, and further north is Ballin-
skellegs Bay, in South Kerry.
Towards dark, sombre clouds, of a lurid hue, began to
muster in the south-west, but the evening was otherwise fine,
with a northerly wind, and the vessel steamed gallantly
along the coast. We saw the light on the larger of the
Skelligs Rocks about ten o'clock, and passed outside of
them. We were then in a fair way for making the Shannon
early next day ; but about two o'clock in the morning
(Saturday) the wind chopped round to the south-west, and
shortly afterwards increased to a gale. Had we had a ba-
rometer on board, we should, in all probability, have been
induced, by its previous indication, to make Valentia, in
Dingle Bay, or some other neighbouring harbour. As it
was, Captain Kennedy was reminded of the marriage of
Venus and the Moon. The wind, acting as the previous
swell, soon produced a heavy cross sea ; and Captain Christie,
(knowing that the vessel, from her light draught, suited for
river navigation, would have less hold of the water than a
sea-going ship, and calculating upon the chances of the wind
veering to a less favourable point, and probably drifting us
upon a lee shore) prudently stood out from the land, during
night, to obtain a safe offing. The vessel (to use a maritime
phrase) behaved admirably ; though so cross and heavy was
the sea, and so furious the gale, which finally increased to d,
hurricane, that the hull and engines were put to the severest
test. Soon after 3 o'clock some high land was seen, supposed
to be near Valentia, but too indistinctly defined to be identi-
fied. The spray dashed over the ship in continued sheets ; but
such was her buoyancy that she rose like a duck, and shipped
but few seas. From four o'clock in the morning till aboutten,
the storm continued without abatement, and the waves, which
were broken and steep, rose mountains high. It might be
said, indeed, that the sea '` yawned around us like a hell,"
threatening every moment to engulph us.

Towards eleven o'clock in the forenoon the gale moderated
a little, but we still apprehended a lee shore, and held out
westward. Friends Chadwick' and Tall resumed the thread
of the narrative they had been reading of " Two Years before
the Mast," at the cabin fire, and I posted up this my little
log-book. The sun looked out for a moment from a broken
cloud ; but this was only a momentary and deceptive glimpse.
Shortly after, while I was looking out at the companion-way
to leeward, the ship took a heavy lurch, and being thrown
from my 'valance, I tumbled down stairs " by the run," and
picked myself up in the steward's room below. This was an
incident of no moment, saving as a relief to the general mo-
notony. I had been more on deck than any of my fellow-
passengers, and got frequently well drenched for this indul-
gence in my nautical propensities. The weather throughout
the day was boisterous, and between seven and eight in the
evening we experienced a violent hail storm. The direction
of the wind varied at times, and we made some stretches on
the other tack, in expectation of reaching the Shannon early
next day. _

We gave, some time ago, some extracts from the report of
the English Medical Mission at Canton, in which our young
townsman, Mr. W. Lockhart, is labouring with so much suc-
cess and devotedness ; and we are glad to see from another
report, with which we have just been favoured, that the me-
dical missionaries of the United States are labouring amongst
the Chinese with equal success. The following passages
from the latter report, which are from the pen of Dr. Parker,
will be read with much interest :
"The Opthalmic Hospital at Canton was opened by the
Rev. P. Parker, M.D., October, 1835, and the General
Hospital at Macao, in July, 1838. Up to the 17th of June,
1840, these institutions had received upwards of 8000 patients,
embracing every variety of disease. It was after lung effort
that a place was found for a hospital ; and when at length a
suitable building was rented, and previous notice had been
given, the first day no patients ventured to come ; the second,
a solitary female, affected with glaucoma, came ; the third
day, half a dozen ; and soon they came in crowds. It is dif-
ficult to convey to a person who has not witnessed the scenes
of the hospital a justidea of them. He needs to be present on a
day for receiving new patients, and behold respectable women
and children assembling at the door the preceding evening,
and sitting all night in the streets, that they might be in
time to obtain an early ticket, so as to be treated the same
day. He need behold in the morning the long line of sedans
extending far iii each direction ; see the mandarins, with
their attendant footmen, horsemen, and standard-bearers;
observe the dense mass in the room below—parents lifting
their children at arms' length above the crowd, lest they
should be suffocated or injured; stand by during the exami-
nation and giving Out of tickets of admission to the hall
above, where they are registered and prescribed for, urgent
cases being admitted at once, while others are directed to
come in five or ten days, according to the ability to attend to
them ; upon that floor witness one or two hundred selected
from the hundreds below, (many being sent away, some, in-
deed, irremediable, but still more curable, and deserving at-
tention ;) officers of various rank, from the chief magistrate
to the criminal judge of the province, sitting at the table of
the physician, with scores of humbler fellow-citizens, seeking
the same gratuity at the foreigner's hand.
" Patients from all parts of the empire have availed them-
selves of the benefits of the hospital ; persons of all ranks,
military, naval, and civil officers, the Nanhaeheer, or district
magistrate, the custom-house officer, salt inspectors, pro-
vincial judges, provincial treasurer, a Tartar general, gover-
nors of provinces, commissioner Lin, and a member of the
imperial family.
The most unequivocal expressions of gratitude have
been manifested both in word§ and in actions. The father,
whose child, a beautiful daughter, had a tumour of seven lbs
weight removed from her back, after she was discharged well
returned with a scroll with a poetical inscription to the Ay_
sician to this effect :—'A grievous disease had entwined itself
around my little daughter ; I had gone in various directions
seeking for physicians of distinction, and had expended
much money upon them in vain ; when I heard of the foreign
physician in the provincial city, I took my daughter by the
hand, and repaired to his residence with the speed of a
courser. He received and treated my daughter, removing
the flaw from the gem, and now she is a perfect pearl again.'
Though it is more than five years since the operation, the
father retains the most lively gratitude, and returns from
year to year with renewed expressions of it. Similar grati-
tude has been manifested by the young lady from Nanking,
who was cured of a peculiar kind of excrescence growing
upon the centre of the corner of her left eye. In one instance,
a brother and sister, the one nineteen, sud the other twenty-
one, had cataracts, so that they had lived together for years
without seeing each other's face. They were accompanied
by their fond parents. When the operation was successfully
performed for both, they were then, in the presence of their
parents brought to see each other. The emotions of all were
such as the occasion was calculated to produce. The feelings
of Maze Yay, a Chinese officer still living, and who sends
yearly remembrances to the physician, are expressed in a
poem which may be found quoted in the Penny Magazine for
July, 1837. The Tartar general, who had cataracts, on leav-
ing the hospital, remarked that he had been an office-bearer
forty-one years ; had visited all the eighteen provinces of the
empire, ' but, (alluding to the operations of the hospital,)
never have I seen or heard of one who does such things be-
fore' ; and burst forth in the exclamation, Taetith Teen
shea to e ko jin' !—Superlative virtue ! the first man under
heaven ! &c.,

royal collection of trained animals beneath a splendid pavi-
lion, in the Surlgate Meadows, Tewksbury, on Tuesday. The

On Sunday morning another gale of scarcely less violence
set in from the same quarter as the first, and at nearly the
same hour—two o'clock.=We again stood from the land.
About six it rather moderated. We saw a few " blue jackets"
in the sky, and bore again to the eastward, with a view, if
the weather continued stormy, to make some intermediate

drifted a little further to the northward than we expected.
As the weather was now improving, Captain Christie (whose
caution and anxiety night and day were unceasing) deter-
mined to make at once for the Shannon, the mouth of which
was about 20 leagues distant. We stood N.N.E., the sea
still running high.
We passed on the west side of the great Skelligs Rock, at
a short distance from it. It is of an irregular form, high,
precipitous, and picturesque, terminating in two points or
peaks. The base is almost perpendicular, and being far from
the main land, it is continually buffetted on all sides by the
waves of the Atlantic. In the general outline it reminded
me of the Rock of Gibraltar, and two white lighthouses, with
an irregular white wall protecting the steep and winding road
between them, favour the resemblance by representing the
towers and batteries of that celebrated fortress. It appears
to be without vegetation, and the keepers of the lighthouses,
who see but the ocean around them, and hear but the scream
of the sea-fowl, must lead a lonely and cheerless life. There
appears to be no bay or shallow shore at any part, and such
is here the general swell of the Atlantic, that weeks some-
times elapse, even in summer, during which no boat with
