On the morning of the 16th, steamer Vixen, and cutter
McLane, towed by steamer Mississippi, anchored at long-

shot distance, and commenced their fire. The Comm 6
dore leading, in the Vixen, with the rest of the force fol-
lowing, passed by the fort—each vessel firing her broad-
side as she ranged ahead, with little or no effect, owing to
the great distance. A long eighteen of the cutter Forward
sent a shot directly into the fort. The shot was repeated
with great effect. In the meantime the Mississippi had

losed up, and was exploding her I'aixhans effectively

mage to the fort

During the morning several of cur boats sounded with-
in half a mile of the fort, and were fired upon, but re-

At 1 p.m. the'line was formed, the steamer Vixen tow-
ing the gun-boats Reefer and Bonita ; the McLane,
schooner Forward and gun-boat Petrel, two launches,
three cutters, and a barge containing a force destined for
boarding the vessels of war, brought up the rear. The
Vixen and her tow passed the bar, and took a position
within point blank range ; but the McLane stuck so fast
that the Commodore was unable to bring up all his force,

or stand the enemy's twelve gun battery, and was obliged
to ietreat. The force in the boats was exposed to heavy
fire, but none were hurt.
The McLane is pronounced an abominable abortion.
When she got afloat again, Captain Howard offered to
make another attempt to pass the bar, but the Commo-

of the 16th, the cutter Forward, gun_

Perry, left Anton lizard°, for an attacK c

FOOD.—We hope the news by this steamer will enable
the hungry Eastern nations to see, that we shall have as
much food to spare during the coming winter and spring,

as we may have ships to carry away. Our new crop of
Indian corn has none of it been shipped as yet, and it is a
vast crop. It will be coming forward along through the
middle and southern States, and pouring down the Missis-
sippi, all winter. The northern canals will be closed for
several months, but during those months the supplies will
come from more southern outlets. Our exports, there-
fore, will only be limited by the means of exportation.—

THE LIVERPOOL STANDARn.

SOUTH LANCASHIRE. WINTER ASSIZES.

Yesterday evening, about half-past five o'clock, the
Hon. Mr. Baron Rolfe, and the Hon. Mr. Justice Wight-
man, the judges appointed to preside at these assizes,
arrived at the Railway Station, Lime-street, when they
were met by William Standish Standish. Esq. of Standish
Hall, the High Sheriff; the Rev. J. S. Master. Rector
of Chorley. the sheriff's chaplain, and William Shuttle-
worth. Esq., the Town-clerk. They proceeded in the
Sheriff's carriage. escorted by the javelin-men to the
judge's lodgings, and thence, after robing, to the Crown
Court, where they took their seats on the bench, at half-
past six o'clock. and the special commission was immedi-
ately read by T. S. Shuttleworth, clerk of the crown.
The court was then adjourned to half-past eleven o'clock
this day, so that their lordships may previously attend
divine worship at St. George's church.
The calendar presents the names of 60 prisoners, a
much less number than appeared at the corresponding
period of last year; but it is probable that the names of
18 men, belonging to an iron or file manufactory, at
Newton-in-the-Willows, may yet be added—they having
been committed for a conspiracy against their employers.
The following is a synopsis of the offences on the
calendar :

Murder, (including an attempt) 3
Manslaughter..
Stabbing and Wounding
Robberies with violence
Assaulting with intent to rob one party; and
Shooting at with intent to Murder another, 2
Assault with violence
Burglary
Robbery ..
Rape ..... . ..... . . ...
Bigamy
Concealing Birth
Forgery
Wilfully breaking Machinery .... .. ........ 1
Horse Stealing
Mint Cases ...
For Judgment from August last

Of the prisoners, 2 can read and write in a superior
manner ; 6 can read and write well ; 7 can read well ; 27
can read imperfectly ; and 18 can neither read nor write.
The Manchester cases will be taken first. The cases in
the boroughs of Manchester and Liverpool will be tried
before Mr. Justice Wightman, who will sit in the Nisi
Prins Court. The other cases will be tried before Mr.
Baron Rolfe, who will preside in the Crown Court. One
of the cases, that of Henry Robinson, charged with the
murder of Richard Kenyon, a gamekeeper, of Knowsley,
in 1843, (and for which one man was convicted aid exe-
cuted,) will probably occupy a whole day. The case
against Wm. Lacey, Michael Taylor, and Richard Cullen,
charged with assaulting Mr. W. Miller, surveyor, of
Fulwood, near Preston, and also with shooting at Miss
Miller, his daughter, with intent to murder her, (as re-
cently noticed by us,) is also expocted to excite much
interest. It is supposed. however, that the whole busi-
ness of these assizes will be got through in the two courts
by Friday, or Saturday at the latest.

Paris, is thus described :—" Although she possesses no
excess of beauty, her appearance is altogether pleasing
She has a fine southern eye, and a rather prominent nose.
In size, she is a little taller than the Duchess d'Aumale,
but much firmer set, and appears ten years older than
she really is—a difference, at her tender age, she can
advantageously support. She speaks little or no French;
and as the duke, her husband, does not know a word of
Spanish, they converse together in Italian."

TO THE EDIToR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD,

SIR.—As you have so lung aml so ably yourself, and
through the correspondence of !ht. Watson, Ind Mr. 11.
G. Harhord, a'tvoeated measures for the improvement of
the health of the town, I wcUld, at the present exciting
time of water battles, just mention a plan which I think
will be conducive to the health of the inhabitants, as a
hint to those pa ties who take an interest in this matter,
and are able to work out toe plan to act upon. Some
one since, some person proposed a plan to supply me
town with salt water. 1 think he proposed to construct a
large wtoutht iron tank, in the form of a tower, and
intended to have a water-wheel, to be worked by the
flawing and tbning of the tide, a hich would give power to
wo'k hydraulic pres-es to fi!l the tower. Now, to my
mind a much mote simple plan might be adopted. Water
f,om the river may be taken on a level nearly up the bed
of the old pool. to the trip of Byrom-street. right into the
heart of the town, a large rest ry,dr tinder grotto(' could
be constructed somewhere ito that locahtv, and, bang tul
r0..1( in that mighbourhood, it might be made without
interferieg with y property; a tower and steam engine
to supply it might hr trrcted there, and the whole towi,
supplied with salt water. By and bye I would suppose
some of the present water pipes will not be require d. as
the water companies will lie in one hand, and the large
ones that v,itl he ; tit down will supersede them, the salt
water can easily be turned into them without taking the
pipes up. 1 will leave both medical gentlemen named to
show the advantages of salt water bathins.. when you may
hive it at your hoots; and I would ask them what effect
upon the health of the town watt ring the streets with salt
water would have. especially in hot weather, when our
streets would be covered with a chit ride or muriate of
soda. lam no chemist, but they can tell you this, but
have no d. übt it woul-t be of great bent fit to the public
health I trust you will think this of sufficient importance
to give it room in your columns; and in the hope that it
may induce some competent person to take up the question,

HOUSE OF COMMONS.--TUESDAY.

All the notices of motions were postponed, and at half-
past five o'clock, on the motion of Sir R. PEEL, the
bouse resolved itself into a committee of the whole house
on the Corn Importation Act.
In the committee, when the first clausa was read by
the chairman, by which, in lieu of the present duties, the
duties set forth in the schedule to this act are to h: taken
until the Ist of February, 1819, ar:d that, from that day,
the following duties should be taken upon " all wheat,
barley, oats, rye, pease, and beans," namely, from every
quarter, Is., and so in proportion for a less quantity,
Lord G. BENTINCK moved the omission of the word
" oats," on the ground that the people of Ireland, Scot-
land, and Wales, were greatly interested in the growth of
that grain. As there acre in Ireland 585,000 occupiers
of land, who were all or nearly all growers of oats, it was
not for the interest of the farmers of that country that
we should hastily alter the law for the protection of their
grain in the English market. The reduction of the duty
on oats would be a tax on the farmers of Ireland to the
amount of £230000 a year. He then made an elaborate
reply to Sir R. Peel's speech of last night, and observed
that he differed from the minister, and the hard-featured,
cold-hlooded economists sitting on the treasury benches,
in this respect, that he could nut cut up human beings in
his legis'ation with as little compunction as if they were
so many logs of wood. He quoted an extract from the
letters of the Times' commissioner," for the purpose of
showing that, as a sum of £200,000 had been paid by the
farmers of the county of Cork into the Savings' Bank at
Cork, in sums of £3-1 each on an average. the Irish
farmers mu-t be in a flout ishing condition at present, and
that the house was therefore bound not to sacrifice them
rashly on the destructive altar of free trade.
After a speech from Sir H. W. BARRON against this
amendment, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHECIIII-;R re-
marked, that the effect of acceding to this proposition
would be, not that "oats" would be admitted at the old
duty, but that they would be admitted free from any duty
at all.

Lord G. BENTINCK then moved the omission of the
whole clause, but subsequently withdrew his resolution.
The other clauses of the bill were then agreed to, and
the rep ,rt was ordered, amid loud cheers, to be received
on Fri a.,7.
On the motion of Sir R. PEEL, the Customs Duties
Bill was committed, and the report was ordered to be re-
ceived on Friday.
The other orders were then disposed of, and the house
adjourned, amid loud cheers, at nine o'clock.
