POLL BOOK

We are glad to find that a complete list of the voters
polled for the election of Sixteen Councillors for this
Borough, on the 2d of November, is already in the
hands of the printers, and will be immediately pub-
lished. It will shew the duplicate qualifications of
the voters, and the wards in which they polled. The
list has been examined with the polling papers in the
possession of the Mayor. It will be found of great
value as a book of reference, and will prove of great
service in carrying on the canvass for the ensuing
year.

both in price and demand,—several sales having been made at an
advance of fully as per cwt. Belfast arc now worth 1025,
Speculators appear more inclined to touch Butters of a secondary

Nothing at all doing in provisions. Bacon is is to 2s per cwt.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, DEC. 4

The market opened with an increased demand from the Trade,
and more disposition to buy freely was shown than for some weeks
past ; this caused an advance of Ad per lb upon the low to middling
qualities of American, but to-day more inclination has been evinced
to sell, and the market has closed without spirit at about last week's
rates. Fair to good descriptions of American continue without the
least change, the supply being so much more abundant than usual
at this period of the season. Egyptian and East India are without
variation, but Waal' may be quoted rather lower. Speculators
have %ken asoo American; and there have been forwarded into
the country unsold during the past month, 1500 American, 50
Fern= and 520 Surat. Since the above, which was written yester-
day to go by the Steam Packet to America, about 4000 bags have
been sold at previous rates.

NELSON'S GELATINE

-CAUTION

HALF THE PRICE OF ISINGLASS.
FROM the increasing demand for NELSON'S PATENT
OPAQUE GELATINE, some unprincipled persons
are imposing spurious articles upon the public, none of which
have the strength and purity of NELSON'S OPAQUE, and
many of them contain Acids, which are highly deleterious,
and totally unfit for culinary purposes. As the use of any
other than Nelson's Patent Opaque Gelatine mustnecessarily
prove a failure, and end in disappointment, the public are
requested to ask for Nelson's PATENT OPAQUE Gelatine,
which, as a protection to purchasers, is sold in packets only,
by most respectable Chemists and Grocers of the United
kingdom, at ls, is Gd, 2s Gd, ss, 10s, and 15s.
Each packet bearing the Patentee's signature.
EXTRACT FROM DR. TJRE'S TESTIMONIAL.
<<" 13, Charlotte-street, Bedford-square, June 6, 1840.
I have subjected to a careful Chemical Examination the
Patent Opaque Gelatine of Mr. George Nelson, and find it to
be at least equal in strength and purity, if not superior to the
best Isinglass for every culinary purpose.
" Mr. Nelson's Gelatine is therefore capable of forming the
best Blanc Mange, without being apt to curdle the milk, as
the Acidulous Gelatine infallibly will do. I find that one
ounce of his Opaque Gelatine is sufficient to form a quart of
Calves Foot or Orange Jelly of the best quality.

POPISH PRIEST v. POPISH BARRISTER

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD

SIR,—On Thursday evening I find the Rev. M. Wilcock,
a popish priest, speaking thus at a meeting of the Catholic
Benevolent Society, J. Rosson in the chair—" If he might
be allowed to step a little aside from the cause of charity, he
thought there were not among any class of Christians more
decided advocates of the cause of civil and religious liberty
than the Catholics. The freedom they wished for them-
selves they would cheerfully accord to others."
On Tuesday evening I find John Rosson, a popish barris-
ter, and chairman at the above meeting, speaking thus at a
meeting of the Protector Society—" There should be some
legal and constitutional means taken to check the proceed-
logs of the men who, under the guise of religion, were doing
their utmost to set fire to the four corners of the empire.
If such means were not speedily taken, consequences the
most disastrous must follow. He knew the subject would be

N.....:...i.p...
solemnly taken up in Parliament in the ensuing sessigrail and some plan devised to put down a set of frantic bigolF,-
not six in number, if counted on the fingers,—who had de-
serted their own country iu order to procure rich wives or
good livings in this."
May I ask, sir, which is the infallible authority of these
two oracles--the rev. gentleman or the learned barrister.
The rev. gentleman being a priest of the infallible church, is,
I presume, the infallible authority ; but then I also find the
following notes in a Romish Bible published in Dublin, in
1818, under the sanction of Drs. Troy, Murray, &c. :
" The sweches, preachings, and writings, of heretics, are
pestiferous, contagious, and creeping like a canker ; there-
fore Christian men must never hear their sermons nor read
their books." Note on 2 Timothy, ii. 17. Again—" A
Christian man is especially bound to burn and deface all
heretical books, and, therefore, Protestant Bibles, Prayer
Books, &c." Note on Acts, xix. 19. So that, after all, the
barrister seems to have the best of it, according to the
Romish church.
But perhaps some of your readers, better skilled than toy-
self in Popish mysteries, could explain this incongruity to an
unsophisticated Protestant.

FIFTEEN SHILLINGS to TEN GUINEAS, are now ready for
inspection at

Together with Five Thousand Ells French, either by the

beauty of this Stock is too well known to need any comment,
only that scarcely an hour passes by without adding some-
thing new and distinyue to the rest. Every article contained
in this warehouse is made up on the premises by the most
tasty and experienced workwomen.
That the taste with which a Mantle or Cloak is made is
half the battle. and cheapness the other, is a fact denied by
none ; and CRIPPS and SCURFIELD are prepared to
prove the rule, that elegance and economy may go hand in
hand. a fact fully borne out by their present prices. C. and S.

simple scale, upon which their business is founded :

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE

NEWCASTLE AND CARLISLE RAILWAY.—The directors
of this company, have, we understand, resolved to make the
line a double one throughout its entire length, as soon as
convenient.—Carlisle Patriot.

NEWCASTLE AND CARLISLE RAlLwAY.—Receipts for
the week ending November 14, £1537 6s. 9d.
A project is on foot for a railway through Blackburn and
Burnley to connect the North Union Railway with the Man-
chester and Leeds Railway, at Todmorden. The distance is
about 30 miles.

YORK AND SCARBOROUGH RAILWAY.—We understand
that the services of Messrs. Take and Allanson, of York,
have been engaged for the purpose of surveying this import-
ant line.—Halifax Guardian.

The last portion of the Birmingham and Gloucester line
of railway, extending from Cofton Farm to Camp Hill, near
Birmingham, will, it is confidently anticipated, be opened to
the public on Tuesday, the 15th of December.

HEYwoon BRANCH RAILWAY.—Last week, the forma-
tion of the Heywood Branch railway, from the Blue Pit
Station of the Manchester and Leeds Railway, to near the
Navigation Inn, Heywood, was commenced. Its construc-
tion has been let to Mr. Thompson for the sum of £6,000.

STATE OF TRADE

LEEDS.—The stock of goods in the mixed Cloth Hall is
so low and chiefly of so old a kind, that the quantity of busi-
ness transacted in the hall really forms no criterion by which
to judge of the real state of the Woollen Trade. We are
happy, however, to be able to report an improvement rather
than a declension in the 'Woollen Trade of the district. At
present there is a good business doing for the season, and the
spirits of our merchants have. been cheered by the recent
tidings from the United States ; but the scarcity of money
prevents any speculative dealings at present.
BRADFORD MARKET.—There was a large attendance of
merchants in the Piece Hall on Thursday, but the amount of
their purchases was extremely small, there not being goods
in the market to complete their orders. So far as the sales
were effected former prices were realized. In the Yarn Mar-
ket there was comparatively little business done ; and the
Wool Market was nearly stationary, both as to demand and
prices.
CHESTERFIELD WOOL MARKET, Nov. 28.—The price of
Wool remains very steady but with a limited demaud.
The MARKET for METALS is in a very drooping con-
dition ; British iron and lead both 5s per ton lower, and very
little demand even at that reduction in price. East India
Tin is considerably lower, 460 slabs of Bauca having been
offered by auction, and bought in at 76s per cwt. Spelter is
now worth £23 7s 9d per ton, delivered on the spot.—Leeds
Intelligencer. _ . . _ _

LANCASIIIRE.—The calico block printing in the neigh-
bouring towns of Manchester still remains in a depressed
state The operative hatters at Oldham are unusually brisk
in making hat bonnets both for the home trade and for ex-
portation. The various trades in other towns in the vicinity
of Manchester remain as noticed in our last.—Preston paper.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, DEC. 7

We observe much activity in our Butter market to-day,—holders
have, however, suddenly become extremely shy in offering their
stocks except at an advance of 25 to 3s per cwt. Fine Belfast is
now well worth 1045—and favourite South Country Brands com-
mand the same price. Pickled Butter is a moderate sale, at 94s to
gss for seconds. There is a great deal of inferior Beef on the
market, which is offering very low. Very prime Beef is not plenti-
#4 and the price of such is comparatively supported. Pork is in
rather better demand, but the currency does not improve. Bacon
has excited speculators attention, and nothing fine is now tube had
under 50s—some ask 51s to 523.

TO THE MAGISTRATES OF LIVERPOOL

GENTLEMEN,—I have read, in the Liverpool Albion of this
day, the resolutions passed at a meeting of a portion of your
body, held at the Town-hall on the 3d instant, respecting
certain remarks alleged to have been made by me, relative to
the granting of licenses, at a meeting of Conservatives in
North Toxteth Ward.

In justice to myself, and to many gentlemen on the bench
of magistrates, whose characters, both public and private, I
highly esteem, I must distinctly state, that the words attri-
buted to me, in the report of the proceedings of that meeting
to which your resolutions refer, were not uttered by me, nor
do they convey the sentiments which I intended to express.
I shall not at present, acting, as I am, under legal advice,
in consequence of the course you have adopted in this re-
spect, say more ; but had the chairman of your bench ad-
dressed me in the first instance, and not your law clerks, I
should have replied to him more explicitly, and with that re-
spect which I consider is due from me to every bench of ma-
gistrates._

I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your most obedient servant,

These parts contain the conclusion of Taming of the
Shrew and the commencement of the Comedy of
Errors. The illustrative engravings in both parts are
remarkably characteristic. The artist appears to be
deeply imbued with the true Shaksperian spirit. We
know of few serial publications which present higher
claims for public support than the Illustrated Shaks-
It may truly be designated a national work, and
as such we trust that its circulation is extensive.
When complete it will constitute the best edition of
Shakspere that can be purchased at anything like the
same price. The mode of publication is highly com-
mendable, as it places the works of our immortal bard
within the reach of the humblest cottager in the land.
