CHESHIRE AND WALES.

A COLLISION, unattended with loss of life, took place
on the Chester and Holyhead Railway, on Friday, near
Prestatyn Station, which is near the Point of Ayre.
PHILIP BRYAN DAVIES COOK, ESQ.—The coming of
age of this gentleman was celebrated at Mold, on Tues-
day last, with great rejoicing and mutual good feeling.
THE TRANMERE CRICKET CLUB gave a ball at the
Royal Rock Ferry Hotel, on Wednesday evening last.
Gribbin's band was in attendance.
ONE OF THE MEN employed in Mr. Laird's yard,

was killed.

THE WELSH BAPTISTS held a tea-meeting in the
school-room of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Bir-
kenhead, yesterday evening week—the Rev. Mr. Price
in the chair.

A PATIENT WIFE.—Ann, the wife of Thos. Moulsdale,
a working man, late of Lower Tranmere, in Cheshire, but
now of Boughton, Chester, has made a patchwork quilt,
in the octagon style, of divers colours and different figures,
containing upwards of 14,000 pieces.
THE CHEPSTOW BRIDGE, on the South Wales Rail-
way, is now nearly completed. The electric telegraph,
laid down between Gloucester and Cardiff, will be con-
tinued shortly to Swansea, and ultimately to Milford
Haven.

CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD RAlLWAY.—Traffic for the
week ended 27th March, 1853 :—Railway : Passengers,

parcels, &c., £1,924 ss. 'Od.; goods : £1.104 3s. 0.—.•
Steamboats: Passengers, parcels, &c., £202 7s. Id. ;
total, £2,126 12s. Id. Increase as compared with the
corresponding week last year, £BBB 9s. Bd.
AT THE HALF-YEARLY MEETING of the Shrewsbury
and Chester Railway, on Thursday, it was announced
that they had raised the rates of traffic ; they intended
opposing the Great Western, in obtaining a bill for the
broad guage ; and they wished to arrange with other
companies. Dividends of eight per cent. and five per
cent. on preference stock, and of one per cent. on ordi-
nary stock. were then adopted.
MR. JOHN EATON, maltster, of Chester, was acciden-
tally killed at the Mollington station of the railway from
Birkenhead to Chester, on Monday afternoon last. While
he was standing on the side of the railway looking at a
goods train on its way to Chester, in a stooping posture,
the buffer of the express train, which came up at full
speed, knocked him down. The unfortunate man, who
has left a widow and seven children, died before reaching
Chester.

BIRKENHEAD VESTRY.—The following ratepayers have
been returned by the magistrates for selection of over-
seers : viz., Mr. Thomas Williams, Mr. Henry King,
Mr. Edward Willan, Mr. James Hume, Mr. Thomas
Fry, and Mr. Edward Mills ; and the following for
assessors of assessed taxes ; Messrs. P. M. Dove, A.
F. Little, T. S. Ashburner, and Charles Groves. A re-
solution was passed, that the assistance afforded to the
overseers in the Parish-office was quite inadequate to the
work to be done.

RECEIVER OF TOWN DUES

To the EDITOR of the LIVERPOOL STANDARD

SlR,—The appointment to the above office is expected to take
place at the monthly meeting of the Council on Wednesday
next. The question is exciting considerable interest out of
doors, and the appointment will be looked for with much
anxiety. One of the public journals has stated this to be a
party question ; but by whom has it been made such ? Not by
the friends of Mr. Brade, for many of them are opposed to him
in political sentiments. But they have taken up the question
simply on the ground of principle—that, in the disposal of
offices of public trust, promotion as the reward of faithful
services ought to be the strongest ground of claim to the ap-
pointment. If, after the faithful services of nine years, ano-
ther individual is now to be placed over his head, it would
virtually be an undeserving censure upon him, and would, at
the same time, be placing a barrier to the advancement of all
the other clerks in the office under him. It is, therefore, to be
hoped that the independent members of the Council will deal
with the question simply on the ground of justice, and not
suffer any party feeling or family influence to interfere with
the appointment of the most fitting candidate, whose claim is
based on nine years' faithful servitude, and recommended by
the memorial of nearly seventy mercantile firms of the town, of
the highest respectability, and of every shade of politics.-1

REBUILDING OF ST. PETER'S CHURCH.

To the EDITOR of the LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
SIR,—I have long looked with unkindly feelings on the un-
couth form and ugly exterior of our Parish Church ; certainly
the inhabitants of our good old town, 150 years ago, had not
much architectural taste as far as churches are concerned.
I cannot but think all Churchmen will be glad to see an
edifice erected, which, for ages to come, shall remain a lasting
monument of their religious zeal and munificence. The in-
habitants of Doncaster have subscribed nearly .e/0,000 towards
the fund for rebuilding their Parish Church, in the space of
two or three weeks, and surely Liverpool can as easily raise
100,000 for the erection of a Parochial Church which will be
a credit to the town.

I trust all Churchmen will attend the Meeting at the I
sesiiins' HOW: thin day at noon, and gin their hearty

WilkinF, Mr. Hill, Q.C., and Mr. Cowling, were for the
plaintiff; and Mr. Atherton, Q C., Mr. Monk, Mr. Asp-
land, and Mr. Russell, for the defendants.—The plaintiff
is a surveyor and an es ate-agent, residing in Manchester,
and the defendants are the trustees of the late Mr. James
Wood, of Manchester. The action was brou;nt to recover
the sum of £29 on an ordinary matter of account, and also
the sum of £487 10s., amount of commission for the sale of
an estate at Timperley, Cheshire, the property of the late
Mr. Wood. The estate was purchased by Mr. S. Brooks,
banker, of Manchester, for £19,500, and the plaintiff
claimed 21- per cent. commission for having negotiated
the purchase. Several witnesses were called, who proved
that 2 per cent. commission was the usual amount paid
to surveyors and estate agents or, such transactions.
The defence was that the plaintiff was not employed by
the defendants to negociate the sale, but simply employed
by Mr. Brooks to look out and report. Verdict for the
defendants.
The court rose at twenty minutes past seven.

RECEIVER OF TOWN DUES,

To the EDITOR of the LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

Sin,—Through the medium of your paper, I shall feel obliged
by your inserting the following :—lt is in contradiction to a
statement made by the Liverpool Chronicle of Saturday. re-
specting Mr. Daniel Brade, as a candidate for the Receiver of
the Town Dues. I cannot imagine how such a statement could
be framed, as Mr. Brade was duly electedlnspectorof Packages
in 1843, after Mr. Sands was elected Mayor,—therefore, can
neither be the oldest nor chief clerk in that office; and I can
Confidently say, that he did not discharge the highest duties
attached to that office during the illness of the late Mr. Corrie,
cr during the illness which terminated in the death of Sir
-Thomas Brancker. lam of opinion that the mistake is in the
r erson ; for Mr. Samuel M'Naughton has been in that

office twenty years, per

'ming the highest duties (especially

during the long illness of the late Mr. Corrie, and also since
the death of Sir Thos. Brancker); and has performed those
duties in a manner highly creditable. JUSTICE.
