TO THE PUBLIC

LIVERPOOL, that in the carly part of the eight-
eenth century was an inconsiderable place, scarcely num-
bering six thousand inhabitants, has rapidly arisen, through
its great natural maritime advantages, with the talent and en-
terprise of its Merchants, to be the
" SECOND COMMERCIAL PORT OF THE EMPIRE,"
with the present amazingly-increasing population of three
hundred thousand, and has been proudly and aptly termed
" THE SEA-HAVEN OF THE WORLD."

some mighty giant, compnse an extent, including those in
progress, of from four to five miles, may be seen unfurled the
flags of all nations, heralding the rich freightage of the various
merchandise and treasures of the globe; and, amid the multi-
tudes that crowd its numerous quays and piers, may be en-
countered the human race in all its chief, marked, and varied
aspects.

district north of the Exchange by the erection of the new docks.
