Safe made by you was a very small one; though exposed to a
tremendous fire, and much injured by large masses of mate-
rials falling upon it, and remaining under the burning mass
several days (from March Ist to March 6th), yet we are glad
to say the most valuable part of its contents were so little
injured that the writing was easily transcribed.—We are,

AUSTRALIA.

Private letters from Melbourne, Australia, to the Ist of
March have been received in Liverpool by the steamer
Arctic. They were taken to Valparaiso by the British
ship Ariadne, and thence to New York by the California
mail-boat. The letters state that extensive new gold
diggings, surpassing in richness any yet heard of, had been
discovered near Melbourne. The commercial accounts are
represented as very prosperoui. The clipper Marco Polo
sailed from Melbourne for Liverpool on the Ist March.
ARRIVAL OF THE MARCO POLO;
By the Black-ball line clipper Marco Polo, Captain
McDonnell, which arrived in this port on Saturday, we
have intelligence from Australia to the 19th of February.
The Marco Polo left Liverpool on the 25th of November
last, and arrived inside Port Philip Heads on the 9th of
January, after a passage of 77 days, where, owing to the
negligence of the pilot, she got ashore, but was shortly
afterwards released, and, after a detention of 23 days, she
again left Melbourne on the 19th February, and arrived
in the river on Saturday, after a passage only of 83 days,
or 6 months and 4 days out and home, including all de-
lays. The screw-steamship Australian, with 78,907 ounces
of gold, sailed from Melbourne for London nine days before
the Marco Polo, which has brought 25,000,ounces. The
Flying Dragon, from Bombay, with a heavy mail for the
overland route, sailed the same day as the Marco Polo.
On the outward passage of the Marco Polo the passen-
gers were so pleased with the conduct of Captain
McDonnell that they presented him with a testimonial
and a piece of plate, valued at a hundred guineas. His
conduct on the return voyage elicited warm feelings of
esteem from the passengers, and he was again compli-

BETTS'S PATENT METALLIC CAPSULES
are now being generally adopted by the Ale and
Porter Export Trade, being the only safeguard against fraud.
See the Sydney Mercantile Journal and Shipping Register,
Dec. 1. 1853 :
" Bottlers should not relax in their best methods of getting
up Beer, or their names will lose the credit which is now
attached to them. A good deal of Malt Liquor of an inferior
quality is bottled in this Colony with English Labels; this is
passed off at auctions as genuine, and the English bottlers are
damnified in credit. and of course in profit; but if they kept
up their quality and Capsuled and wired their bottles, spurious
articles could not be so easily foisted on the public."
As a convincing proof of the appreciation of the merits and
utility of our Capsules, we subjoin the following letter, re-
ceived from Messrs. Barclay, Perkins, and Co.'s Sole Agent,
Mr. JOHN TY HER, of Liverpool:—
[co ry.]

"I intend using them in future to every Bottle I put up,
discontinuing the use of tinfoil altogether, thus affording to
Merchants and Shippers the best guarantee of the genuine-
ness of the article supplied in my name.
"Consignees abroad will also be able to detect and expose
the frauds alluded to in the extract from the Sydney Mercan-
tile Journal and Shipping Register of Ist December, 1853,
quoted in your printed circular.

PROGRESS OF BIR.K.EXHP-ID.

ALMOST twelve mouths having expired since the last
election of Commissioners, the approach of another election
has created some interest towards the proceedings of the
Past twelve months. We do not, however, perceive that
progress which vfetwere led to anticipate. As far as
regards the long talked of shipbuilding yards, it must be
admitted that some unforeseen obstacles had arisen in the
completion of the arrangements entered into with Messrs.
WrLsos and others, which rendered it necessary to release
Mr. WiLsola altogether from the engagement; hut all
matters having been satisfactorily arranged, the under-
taking has passed into other hands, and we may venture
to hope that, although the delay had created some degree
of anxiety and disappointment, Birkenhead will not ulti-
mately be prejudiced by the change. The works have now
been fairly commeneed by Mr. Join.; LAIRD, who has
engaged first-rate engineering talent in the person of Mr.
ABERNETHY, under whose designs and superintendence
the whole of the works will be completed with that dispatch
and efficiency worthy the undertaking, and which, when
completed, will be equal, if not superior, to any Shipbuild-
ing establishment in the kingdom. We cannot offer to
' ourßirkenliend friends similar congratulations with respect
to the progress of the dock works. We were led to believe
that, as the consequence of the last election, the whole of
the works would be prosecuted with vigour, and be com-

are at a loss to understand why there is so little appear-
ance of progress upon the margin of the great float, as it
was generally believed that several shipbuilding establish-
ments were about to be formed, and that leases had been
made out and contracts entered into with several parties,
and wanted merely the signatures'of the trustees to com-
plete the contracts. But we suppose that several parties,
tired out by delays, have relinquished their engagements,
as we find that Messrs. RENNIE and Jonnsox have
established themselves in Liverpool, and Messrs. GETTY
in Garston. We cannot account for these results, but

are patronised by Royalty and the most distinguished Fami-
lies in different parts of the world. During the last four
years their extraordinary efficacy has astonished thousands.
The Hair Restored, Baldness and Greyness Prevented by
BEETHAM'S CAPILLARY FLUID. The truly wonderful
efficacy of this unique preparation is the theme of admiration
wherever introduced. It effectually prevents the hair falling
off or turning grey, promotes its growth on places that have
been bald for years, strengthens weak and fine hair, and gra-
dually restores its natural colour, without the use f dye. It
cleanses the head from scurf, and imparts a beautiful trans-
parent, glossy appearance, and keeps it in any desired form.
In inducing the growth of whiskers, eyebrows, mustachios,
iti, effect is surprid ng.—Bottles 2s. 6d., double size 4s. 6d.,
7s. 6d. equal to four small, lie. to six small.
EASE AND COMFORT IN WALKING.—BEETHAM'S
CORN AND BUNION PLASTER.—This most important
discovery causes the greatest delight and astonishment wher-
ever it is introduced. Its effect, to use the words of numerous
correspondents, is truly miraculous ; the most inveterate
Corns, Bunions: and those unsightly and painful enlargements
of the GREAT TOE JOINTS, which disfigure the beautiful sym-
metry of the foot, have been immediately relieved from all
pain and uneasiness, and in a short time entirely dispersed,
after twenty years' suffering. Unexceptionable references
are allowed to be given to individuals in almost every part of
the United Kingdom.—Sold in Packets, Is. ; Boxes, 2s. 6d. ;
which will be sent free to any part of the United Kingdom on
the receipt of 14 or 34 postage stamps, by Mr. Beetham,
Cheltenham, or any of his Agents.
For Removing Superfluous Hair, BEETHAM'S VEGETA-
BLE EXTRACT is the only article ever discovered which
does not cause pain or injury to the Skin. Numerous worth-
less articles are introduced, containing the most deadly poi-
sons, and unfit to be applied to the human body ; many of them
remove the skin, and produce dangerous wounds. The effect
of this Extract is unerring, and gives the greatest satisfaction.

PROGRESS OF BIRKENHEAD.

/Upson. twelve months having expired since the last
election of Commissioners, the approach of another election
has created some interest towards the proceedings of the
past twelve months. We do not, however, perceive that
progress which we were led to anticipate. As far as
regards the long talked of shipbuilding yards, it must be
admitted that some unforeseen obstacles had arisen in the
completion of the arrangements entered into with Messrs.
WitsoN and others, which rendered it necessary to release
Mr. WILsoN altogether from the engagement; hut all
matters having been satisfactorily arranged, the under-
taking has passed into other hands, and we may venture
to hope that, although the delay had created some degree
of anxiety and disappointment, Birkenhead will not ulti-
mately be prejudiced by the change. The works have now
been fairly commenced by Mr. Joint LAIRD, who has
engaged first-rate engineering talent in the person of Mr.
ABERNETHY, under whose designs and superintendence
the whole of the works will be completed with that dispatch
and efficiency worthy the undertaking, and which, when
completed, will be equal, if not superior, to any shipbuild-
ing establishment in the kingdom. We cannot offer to
our Birkenhead friends similar congratulations with respect
to the progress of the dock works. We were led to believe
that, as the consequence of the last election, the whole of
the works would be prosecuted with vigour, and be com-
pleted within two years or two years and a half at the
most; but one year having already elapsed, we cannot
conceal our fears that, judging by the past, considerable
latitude must be given to the proposed period, before
anything approaching to completion will be visible. We
are at a loss to understand why there is so little appear-
ance of progress upon the margin of the great float, as it
was generally believed that several shipbuilding establish-
ments were about to be formed, and quit leases had been
made out and contracts entered into with several parties,
and wanted merely the signatures of the trustees to com-
plete the contracts. But we suppose that several parties,
tired out by delays, have relinquished their engagements,
as we find that Messrs. RENNIE and JOHNSON have
established themselves in Liverpool, and Messrs. GETTY
in Carsten. We cannot account for these results, but

:MERCIAI ADVERTISER.

Irish spirits, a retention of the present amount or
sugar duties, or nearly so, instead of reducing
them as fixed by the act of Parliament, on the sth
of July next, and an augmentation of the excise
duty on malt from 2s. 9d. to 4s. a bushel. In this
selection, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER has
shown much judgment and prudence, though, as a
matter of course, in every scheme to increase
taxation there are always many to be found who
will argue that revenue ought to be derived
through some other channel than that which im-
mediately affects themselves. This is particularly
the case with regard to the proposed addition to
the Malt-duty, some of the representatives of the
agricultural interest contending that the farmers
have been too little considered in modern legisla-
tion, and ought not to be called upon to bear any
fresh burdens. It is an egregious error to suppose
that the farmers, as a class, pay the duty on malt,
which is borne by those who drink beer, and as
this is a custom of very general observance, it is
anticipated that this item in the War Budget will
realise the amount expected from it, particularly
as the proposed increase of ls. 3d. per bushel will
hardly make an appreciable difference in the retail
price of the manufactured article. Such will also
be the case with spirits ; and, besides this, there
are very many who, upon moral grounds, will cor-
dially agree with the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE-
QUER in his attempt to pay for the war out of the
anti-temperance habits of those who share none of
its dangers.
It may be that the yield of these several addi-
tions to the revenue will not fully realise the
estimates of their productiveness, but, on the
whole, the majority of our readers will agree with
us that Mr. GLADSTONE has adopted a course to
which, perhaps, the least exception can be taken ;
and we the more readily make this admission, be-
cause there is so little in the' policy of the present
Cabinet with which we can coincide.

ArBEENHEAD AFFAIRS.

TO TEE, EDITOR OP THE LIVRAPOOL STAXDARD.

Sls; It is seldom that I take any part in matters of local
arrangements or disputes, but the glaring misstatements
in the. columns of your contemporary of Saturday last, re-
specting the affairs of Birkenhead, demand attention.
I omit any notice of the twee twang genteel scurrility ;
but to inform your readers Old Mr. J. H. Greene did not
propose to lay a rate of ls. in, the pound on land, but on
houses. Had the proposition extended to the Jand also,
it might have been fairly met ; for land has, on the
average, quintrupled in value, but houses have not. The
proposition was based on, a catch, for which Mr. Greene
was only an agent.
The forthcoming election in June next—for eight new
commissioners—will show the genteel folk how the thing
is to be done.—Yours, WOODSIDE.

STEAM COMMUNICATION
BETWEEN
LIVERPOOL AND ANTWERP.
• ....
- - Next Summer. as soon as the Screw Steam-
ships now building for the Atlantic are completed, a regular
STEAM COMMUNICATION will be established, by first-
class steamers, between LIVERPOOL and ANTWERP.
Goods will be received by these Steamers at Antwerp for
transhipment at Liverpool by the Steam-ships to the United
States; and the transhipment at Liverpool. as in the Com-
pany's Trade between Havre and Liverpool, will be free of
expense to the Goods.
It is not intended by the Establishment of this Line to cur-
tail in any way the facilities already possessed by the French,
German, and Belgian Shippers of Merchandise to America
from Havre, via Liverpool, but as an additional means for
the expedition of their Goods.
