THE PARISH AND THE IRISH POOR,

The expense to which this unfortunate town is, to be put in
the effort to administer to the wants of the Irish poor, and, at
the same time, to protect our own population from the ravages
of fever, seems to have no ascertainable limit. Week after
week, we find the demands upon us increasing ; and not a
prospect appears of any early cessation of those demands.
Certainly if any community ever possessed a just claim to
the assistance of the Legislature, in the emergency, into
which for no fault of their own they are thrown' it is this com-
munity of Liverpool. Yet we see every attempt made to bring
our case before either House treated with careless indifference ;

and we are even assured that we are sufficiently gorged wiili
wealth to bear all our burthens without being injured in the
slightest degree. One noble lord remarked distinctly, on a
recent occasion, that we had profited so much from our com-
merce with Ireland, that it was only fair that we should put up
with our present difficulties without grumbling.
We have previously directed attention to ,our grievance,
arising from the quarantine regulations enforced in the case
of vessels twin's' leek - -nrrers from Ireland—viz., the

t „-
immense cost to which the parish authorities are put in order
to carry out the regulations of the Home Office, and the deten-
tion caused to the Irish steamers. The hire of the vessel,
alone, employed for the conveyance of the medical officers, is
nearly .e 4,000 per annum; and with additional salaries, &c.,
.t'6ooo will be the minimum cost per annum of the regulations,
if persevered in ; yet not a case of fever has yet been found on
board of the steamers. This large sum might be saved, and
the object of government equally well answered by a strict
examination being enforced at the ports in Ireland where the
passengers are taken in. On Saturday last, the Maiden City,
steamer, arrived in the river at eleven a.m., with passengers,
and a cargo of salmon for that day's market. She was boarded ;
and a case of suspected fever, which turned out to be not fever
at all, being discovered, she was ordered to the lazarettoes, and
detained until four o'clock. The market for the fish was, of
course, lost, or, at least, the productiveness of its sale mate-
rially lessened. It has been suggested to us, as worthy of the
consideration of the authorities, that the quay of the Clarence
Dock might be temporarily bricked up at both ends, and
passengers examined there, by which the expense of a steamer
for the medical men would be saved, and any detention
prevented.

Yesterday, a Special meeting of the Council was held in

Dock Committee, in which certain (the subjoined) impor-

tant reductions were proposed to be made in the rates of
dues now charged to the shipping of the port of Liverpool.

CORN EXCHANGE, Rum 18.
The late rains, although vastly beneficial to the growing
crops., began at length to excite in the minds of some parties
apprehensions for the result; but succeeded yesterday by very
fine weather, the trade on the whole became exceedingly quiet,
except for Indian Corn, which continued in fair demand at pre-
vious rates.

A very numerous fleet of vessels having entered this port
since Monday, containing an abundant supply of Indian Corn
and Corn Meal, with upwards of 50,000 barrels of Flour, chiefly
from the American States ; but no excessive quantity of other
grain produce either British or Foreign.
It was easy to infer from the preceding remarks the position
in which our market would stand this morning; and the par-
ticulars of the proceedings altogether may therefore be com-
prised in a very brief space.—Extreme dullness prevading every
department of the trade, a general decline in prices was deci-
dedly established, reducing our quotations from the above rates
of Tuesday, viz., for Wheat 3d. per 701 b., Flour 2s. per barrel,
Barley 3d. per 60ib., Beans and Peas is. to 2s. per quarter,
Oats Id. to 2d. per 451 b, Oatmeal 2s. per load, and Indian Corn
2s. per 4801 b. Induced, however, by the reduction stated, se-
veral further paacels of the last named article were taken for
Ireland.

Our accounts from Ireland report the splendid appearance of
the.crops 4ffnerally, especially of Wheat, and thoukh in some
districts the complaints of the Potatoe blight prevail, yet in a
majority of cases it is now said there is no indication of disease.

Austin, urging petitions in favour of a bill for enabling
boards of guardians or parochial authorities to make tem-

from fever, caught whilst in the discharge of their duties,
during the immigration of the destitute Irish. The salary
of Miss Cazenove, schoolmistress to the Workhouse, was
increased from £34 guineas to £45. Contracts were then
opened and agreed upon for the various articles required
in the Workhouse. The Fever Hospital report was read,

COTTON MARKET, JUNE

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 15.
The arrivals into this port since Tuesday last, contain a fair
supply of Wheat, Beans, and Flour, but except Malt, we have
little to note coastwise; the imports of, the week from abroad
furnishing a moderate quantity of Grain, with a large influx of
Indian Corn, Indian Meal, and Flour from the American States.
There was a moderate attendance of buyers at this day's

all extensive operations ceased in every article of the trade.
Wheat was 9d. per bushel lower than this day week, and Flour
4s. per barrel; Oats 3d. per bushel, Oatmeal as. per load.
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease 2s. lower.

MR. SAMUEL HOLME said it would allay much angry
-feeling, and, perhaps, give general satisfaction, if Mr.
rainley-Moo-re would explain the reason why certain of
Le river steamers were not allowed the use of the new

Mr."BRAMLEY-MOORE replied, that the fear of the
Dock Committee was, that if they permitted more than
two or three steamers to go alongside the stage in its
present state, it might be dangerous and hazardous. Until
the large bridges, weighing between 200 and 300 tons,
were made, to connect the pier with the stage, instead of
the exceedingly ricketty bridges, which were there at
present, it would be wrong to permit the different river
steamers to land and embark their passengers there, and
thus keep up a continual crossing and re-crossing.

the debt upon the dock estate to be £3,600,000; and
taking the interest payable thereon at 4k per cent. per

ALL SAINTS' SUNDAY SCHOOLS, LIVERPOOL.
THE District of ALL SAINTS' contains about Seven
Thousand Inhabitants. For this large population there
has been neither Church nor School. in connection with the
Church of England, since January, 1845, until the beginning of
the present year,. when a few benevolent individuals opened
Sunday and Evening Lchools, in Beau-street.
The Building hitherto used for the purposes of Instruction is
now found inadequate to supply the wants 'of an increasing
School, and it has been proposed to make such enlargement as
shall afford accommodation for at least three or four hundred
children.
It is contemplated that the intended alterations, under the
Divine blessing, will be productive of muc nefit to the poor
of the district, not only from th uction their Children
may derive, but also as rega eir own,spiritual interests,
as it is moreover proposed 'cense the School-room when so
enlarged, that it may used for all the purposes of Public
Worship, until the etion of the Church for the District,
which, it is hoped 11 be completed in less than 18 months.
The sum required for enlarging the School-room as proposed,
according to the estimate of Messrs. Saml. and Jas. Holme, is
.e5O; and it is thought an additional expense of .e7O will be in-
curred in providing School Furniture, Books, &c. ; so that the
Committee of the above Schools contemplate an outlay of about
£l2O. To meet this expenditure, Subscriptions will be thank-
fully received by the Rev. H. MARLEN, Minister of the Dis-
trict, 29, Sackville-street, Everton • or any of the following
