Autumn comes round with its frost and its cold, and our gay summer garments begin to wear old ;
This is the time must all mortals confess to make a great change in the style of our dress.
And where shall we go, then, our new suits to find? what tailor in Liverpool pleases our mind?
Hurrah ! cries out reason, Schwersensky and Co., thesqkare the tailors to whom you should go.
Hurrah! echoes fashion, Schwersensky for me, so tasteful the garments at their mart I see;
Economy then raises up her glad voice—yes, at Schwersensky's I always rejoice.

—how are ye honoured ! The guano question

was brought before the Foreign Secretary on Saturday,
because the town is at present filled with our agricultu-
ral friends from all parts of England and the United
Xingdom,—here by reason of the Cattle Show. Lord
CLARENDON, who receives his deputations with greater
I)landness than any of his colleagues, smiled and smiled
again, and stated in effect that the question had not failed
to occupy a large share of his attention ; he took the op-
Vortunity of reminding the deputation that many tons of
fish were thrown away annually as offal, in Newfound-
land, which might easily be converted into a rich and fer-
lilizing manure. No effort would be lost to induce the
ileravian government to consider the question, and endea-

TOUring tO

ire to the English farmer a larger and
rheaper supply of that powerful element (guano) in the
Improvement of the soil ; all of which meant free-trade in
'span% my Lord, which the English government will not
'obtain in a hurry from hungry Peru, much as we have
leard of her gold, With regard to the said tons of fish,
I sincerely hope they will never be brought to England to
poison our hitherto healthy acres ; sprats as manure in
Essex is bad enough. Defend us, worthy farmers, from
the infliction of rotten fish manure, from the Dogger bank !
When so many inefficient acts M legislation pass the
Senate—from the Prevention of Bribery at Elections Bill
mown to that for the better protection of women—the
last past enactment—both failures, one cannot but hai
with satisfaction the appearance of a measure which pro-
mises to be nearly all that the exigencies of the greatest
Vommercial country in the world can desire. Customs
'Reform ! why, the words have been dunned into our ears
until we became completely sick from the hope deferred.
Now we have it, " pure and simple," easy of obtainment,
and the means neither costly nor complicate. Lord
BsouGuAm, in a seven hours' speech, observed to the
rfket that he v

shed to see cheap law brought to the poor
323an's door. My opinion is, that the further removed
from the doors of poor and rich the better. Not so with
eastom-house grievances—lieretofore neither few nor
aMall ; but the other day the only court for their trial was
that most costly, most tedious one—the Court of Ex-
v'heqner. On last Friday I witnessed a grand step in the

right direction,—Court of Esc'

JOSEPH EARP, TAILOR AND OUTFITTER,
3, CHURCH-STREET, LIVERPOOL.
It is a graceful custom to offer particular courtesy to friends at Christmas. One more honoured in the observance than
the breach. Proffering, therefore, to our own numerous friends the best compliments of the approaching season, united with
our sincere thanks for their continuous custom, we beg to inform them and the public at large that our Christmas Stock of
Goods embraces every variety.
To our home-staying friends we recommend more especially our WINTER COATS, which at a succeeding Christmas
they will find are at least biennial.
PONCHOS.—Those fashionable Capes which conduce as much to the health and personal appearance as to the comfort of
the wearer,—and, in fact, every kind of Garment, of the newest style, and first-rate quality, at the lowest prices.
To Emigrants, Voyagers, Captains, &c., it is only necessary now to state that we offer every variety of article, suitable for
every climate. at wholesale prices.
In our Wholesale and Bespoke Department every novelty of the season is speedily supplied. The ATHOL SHOOTING
JACKET, the ROSSLYN CHESTERFIELD, the FORESTER OVERCOAT, &c.. claim attention; while the ALBERT COAT,
less novel though it be, retains its eminence. In this department the 'NINTHS JACKET for Youths is well worthy the consi-
deration of Parents, who will find also ready made all those etceteras of Boys' Clothing which the holiday season demands.
OUR BEST CHRISTMAS COMPLIMENTS TO EACH AND ALL.
Save that perhaps we soothly wish
Our Friends on us to call.
For them we all our efforts make,
For them the best we do,—
Sell all of choicest quality
At price to merit true.
To them, such efforts to reward
We 100k—as well we may—
And thus our Christmas compliments
To all our friends we pay.
JOSEPH EARP,
TAILOR AND UNIVERSAL 0 VIVITTgR,
3, CHURCH-STREET, LIVERPOOL,

Our compliments to each and all,
Good wisher most sincere;
May every customer of ours
Have nought on earth to fear.
May all who buy our Winter Coats,
Next Christmas be as gay,
As free from tear and wear as will
Those Coats be on that day.
Best wishes to our friends we send,
Unselfish are they all,

so numerous as
the fascinations of the music and the excellence of the
performances entitled and led us to expect. The pro-
gramme, as usual, consisted of concerted instrumental
compositions by the first masters, and included, in its at-
tractions, a quartet by Beethoven, another by Weber, duets
by Beethoven and Corelli, besides other pieces by com-
posers of acknowledged excellence and taste. The uer-

j kormances were generally excellent,—Beethoven's brillialt
"Sonata," 69, by Messrs. Isaac and Lidel, on the piano-

I plause. In Beethoven's " Quartet" No. 1, in F, Messrx-

THE THEATRE-ROYAL for the past week has been.
graced by the performances of an actress new to the play-
goers of Liverpool. The lady is a celebrity among theatri-
cals, her peculiar walk being that of lively high comedy_
Miss Fitzpatrick, that is the lady's name, is possessed of a.
fine and expressive, rather than a bewitching face ; her
figure is tall, elegant, and lady-like. In style of acting
she combines much spirit and liveliness with a certahr
polish and ease, which impart in their union an exceed-
ingly pleasing character to her performances. She has
since our last appeared as Beatrice, in " Much ado about
nothing ;" as Neighbour Constance, in " The Love
Chase ;" as Juliana, in " The Honeymoon ;" and as Donna
Violante, in "The Wonder." In all of these characters
she displayed much nciate and archness ; no slight
delicacy of sentiment, and a winningness of elocution ancr

aetion.which secured for her hearty and well-merited
applause. The performances of Miss Fitzpatrick extend

311 will speedily be exchanged for a class

forming an efficient reserve for the public service, who
'night be called upon, on emergency, and be useful the

moment they were appointed. Surely this is no more than
the commercial public is entitled to. Hundreds of young
men, chiefly from Scotland and Ireland, have heretofore
been appointed to lucrative positions, and whose chief
qualification, for the most part, appeared to be a capability
of smoking cigars,—which, by the by, some of the superior
-officers were not slow in showing the youths an example.
I have not thought it worth my while to take up my

pencil or your readers' attention by any notice of the
promised Reform Bill. It is Lord Joan RUSSELL'S, and
that is saying quite enough to guarantee dissatisfaction
and debate thereanent. It may, perhaps, be interesting
to know that more useful legislation is now being pro-
vided for, and certainly will be carried during the ensuing
Session of Parliament. Two or three barristers—clever

enough in their way—not far removed froth Pump-court,
are now, under the command of the QUEEN'S ministers,
framing clauses for insertion in divers bills—probably
they will form new bills,—firstly, whipping for the ruffian
husband and the assaulter of women is to be added to the
24 months' imprisonment in aggravated cases. An edu-

sffeletomsed, which, it is
iletermined, to some extent at least, shall be carried ; in
