You will find that the Navigation Laws (whose most
important operation is on the coasting trade) were yielded
when the general principle of free trade was yielded by
our false (because unreasonable) liberality.

To expect that you will be able to defend the Naviga
tion Laws merely as a means of keeping up the d
of the empite, is absurd in every point of view

must become espe,— ran to you when you consider
that you will have no empire beyond the United Kingdom'
which you will have any interest in going to the expense
of defending, for why should the oppressed population of
this country be taxed to defend colonists in whose mar-
kets British labour gets no preference over foreign ?
I continue most firmly to believe that free trade will
reduce us from being an empire with supremacy on the
sea, to being a second-rate power in Europe defended by
martcllo towers and an immense standing army, to an-
swer at once for keeping our own population in order and

UNDER THE PATRONAGE; OF THE QUEEN AND THE ROYAL

THE CELEBRATED MANCHESTER MEDICINE.
ATKINSON & BARKER'S ROYAL INFANTS'
PRESERVATIVE is a pleasant and efficacious carmina-
tive, affording instant relief in, and effectually removing, those
alarming and nnmerous complaints to which infants are liable;
as affections of the bowels, difficult teething, the thrush or frog,
convulsions, rickets, &c. • is an admirable assistant to nature
during the progress of die ho ping cough, measles, and the
cow pox or vaccine inocul • n, and is so perfectly innocent
that it may be given witl afety immediately after birth. In
short, whether this in cine enters the palace or the cottage,
the proprietor feels ionest conviction of its power to assuage
maternal pain fo nfant suffering—to convert that pain into
gladness, that suffering into balmy repose. For adults, in
English cholera, spasms, pain in the bowels, and other com-
plaints of the intestines, owing to wind or obstructions in the
digestive organs, this medicine will be found of infinite service.
It is highly recommended by the faculty.
Prepared and Sold by ROBERT BARKER, 34, Greengate,
Salford, (late of No. 1, Market-place, Manchester,) chemist, by
special appointment, to Her Most Gracious Majesty, Queen
Victoria, in bottles at ls. VA., 2s. 9d., and 4s. Gd. The 4s. Gd.
bottles captain seven times, and the 2s. 9d. three and:a half
times the quantity of those at Is. lid. each. Sold also by all
druggists and medicine venders throughout the civilised world.
Observe the signature, "Robert Barker," on each label
on the bottle ; also the names of "Atkinson and Barker" on
the government stamp, in white letters on a red ground, otker-
wise it cannot be genuine.—Established in the year 1793.

TESTIMONIAL FROM AN EMINENT PIITSICIAN.
Cork, 13, Ilenrp•sfreet, Allarch 27, 1847.
DEAR SlR,—Having in the course of my practice frequently
used your Royal Infants' Preservative with various diseases in-
cidental to Infants and Children, I feel it but due to you to
state that I have found it invariably in Spasms, Pain in the
Bowels, Acidity of the Primea Vim. Teething, Convulsions,
English Cholera, and in fact every affection to which Infants
are liable, to give inmediale relief; and is a most desirable
Medicine. Remaining, dear Sir, faithfully yours.

FEVER.

AS this desolating scourge is at this time hovering
over this devoted town, and, as it seems, without being
checked by the present medical treatment, Dr. COFFIN, by the
particular reque t of a number of his Friends, will commence
a COURSE of FOUR LECTURES on FEVER, its History,
Causes, and Cure, according to the principles and laws of na-
ture, in the CONCERT HALL, Lord Nelson-street, on THURS-
DAY EVENING next, the 6th instant, to be continued on the
following Thursday Evenings, viz.. May 13th and 20th, and 3rd
June. The Lectures to begin at Half-past Seven o'Clock.
As the Medical Profession have signally failed in curing this
disease, and as Dr. Coffin is confident (when there is sufficient
physical strength,) that it can be cured, and that, too, in a few
hours, he most respectfully invites the attendance of the Medi-
cal Profession, as also the Municipal Authorities, Select Ves,
trymen, and the Clergy of all denominations in the town and
neighbourhood of Liverpool.
Dr. COFFIN can be consulted on THURSDAY and FRIDAY, in
each week, at his Residence, No. 23, Russell-street, until fur-
ther notice.

THE ALBERT DOCK.

From the 25th March to the 29th April, 70 vessels of
36.860 tons register, have entered the Albert Dock to dis-
charge : 57 of these have been completed, and have had
upwards of 1500 tons weight put on board for ballast pur-
poses ; and several of the remaining 13 vessels (now
working) are nearly finished.
The following exhibits the progressive increase in the
work of the Albert Dock, viz.:-
29 ships, of 12,040 reg. tons, entered to discharge in Janry.
:38 „ 15,845 „ PP Miry.
35 ~ 17,662 „ March.
46 ~ 24,440 „ IP
PP April.
...._

148 ~ 69,987 „ in 1847.
Of these, 11 were from China. 30 from the East Indies,
67 from America, 14 from Bahia and Pernambuco, 6 from
the West Indies, 4 from Africa, and 16 from other places.
The time occupied in discharging ships in Albert Dock
during this year gives an average of 30 working hours for
a vessel of 400 tons register burthen.

also of the bar, and after the examination of a few wit-
nesses on the facts of the case, and a long argument be-
tween the counsel engaged for the several parties, at the

to enable the two existing waterworks companies to
to an arrangement on the provisions of an agreement for
the sale of their property to the Corporation. On the re-
admission of parties, Mr. Webster, in answer to the chair-
man, stated that the Bootle Company were willing to
make it compulsory upon the Corporation to buy ; the

price to
of the Corporation, assented, and a clause was subse-
sequently agreed to between the parties. After another
long argument, the room was cleared to enable the com-
mittee to consider as to the Harrington works, and they
resolved' that the purchase of these works should be made
noon the principle agreed to by that company in the last

session by arbit-ration, it being understood that the arbi-
trators should be required to consider the case as if the
present bill had not passed into law. On Wednesday, the
committee assembled again, at the usual hour, and a long
discussion again took place on the clauses to be inserted
for the sale and purchase of the Harrington company.
Eventually the parties were requested to re-consider them
in the course of the evening. In the meantime, the
counsel for both the existing water companies not to have
their case. prejudiced. Dr. Lyon Playfair, Professor
Ansted, inspector Fresh, and two well-sinkers, Mr. John
May and Mr. John Anderson, were the only witnesses
examined. The evidence of the two first was of a
scientific character, and it went to show the excellent
quality of the water, the abundance of supply, and the
improbability of a sufficient quantity being obtained from
wells, or, if it could, of its quality being suited to domes-
tic consumption.

VICKERS'S GINGER BRANDY,

EXPERIENCE teaches us that the beneficent pro-
ductions of the earth, are themselves sufficient for man's
earthly good, especially when rightly directed, and adopted in
accordance with the exercise of reason.

_
GINGER, the almost spontaneous 7row•th of a sunny clime,
offers, in his own land, its invigorating aid, to recruit the ex-
hausted energies of the enervated Indian ; and in other quarters
of the globe, nature kindly provides the luscious and grateful
Orange, as the needful renovator.
After the most acute medical research, professors are corn
pelled to admit, that nature herself presents the most delight-
ful and efficient remedies, in the ten use of the Seville
Orange and Jamaica Ginger. e means ,of commerce we
are enabled to obtuin then ood things; and by a skilful and
judicious operation, we enabled to offer to the world, a com-
bination of these ex ent remedial qualities, eminently useful
in spasm, flatule , and sensations of cold. And, indeed, for
whatever purp stimulants are required, there are none more
wholesome—none more pure—none snore efficacious, than
VICKERS'S GINGER BRANDY.
. THE ORANGE GINGEREITE
is an article less highly concentrated, and so compounded as to
be acceptable to the Ladies, and those to whom a stronger
Liqueur is not necessary.
THE CURACAO PUNCH

stands pre-eminent for delicacy of flavour and superiority of
quality ; and may be used either as a Liqueur, or in combina-
tion with warm or cold water.
THE IMPERIAL LIQUEUR GENEVA

There is nothing from on
Acture but which seems ex

made for it. Elsewhere palaces are built to adorn cities ;
here the city is but an adjunct to the palace; every mound
seems by nature adapted to add, by its elevation or decli-
vity, a new beauty to the scene. In the representation,
the artist, Mr. Frederick Fenton, of London, has been, if

we may use the expression, " at home." There is a softness
and delicacy in the distances, a boldness and freedom in Vie
nearer objects, that not only shows great artistic skill,
but produces an effect that can be better imagined than
described. Nature itself, in our comparatively.coldisle,

cannot be conceived to possess such a scene of lovelin
and beauty. Trees of beautiful autumnal tint
gracefully bending over fountains projecting
into the air, which glittering in the sun, falls in
thousand forms into the basins beneath. These to-
gether with the lotely walks and sweet parterres form
a view rather more resembling the e '

Tiption of a

to Ehgland. In the' centre of the lake is Neptune,-;ur:
rounded by his Tritons doing homage to Alcinous, and
forming a splendid picturesque fountain. At each side is
a massive building, the style in keeping with the iyener.l

architecture ; auu, ',num ue euges of tne take, encircling
it in easy and graceful line, is an opeh-work ballustred
wall, giving a complete finish to the previously broken
edge of the ornamental. water.

Taking the painting as an artistic work, it is incompa-
rably superior to anything of the kind hitherto produced
in the provinces ; while its peculiar adaptation to day or
night representations, renders it equal if not superior to
previous efforts. The expense this year must have been
enormous, yet we trust that the increasing patronage of
the public will not only suffice to repay the manager for
the present outlay, but to stimulate him to greater Mr,
COW on future Occasions.
