Mrs. Butler will perform at the Chester theatre on
Saturday night next.
The subscription for the erection of an Athenaeum at
Bolton now amounts to nearly £5OOO.
ENGLISH AND IRISH BENEVOLENCE.-A Preston cot-
ton-spinner, with not a fraction of pecuniary interest in
Ireland, has subscribed £lOO to the Irish Relief Fund.
An amateur performance, in aid of the charitable fund,
took place at the Ormskirk Theatre, on Monday evening,
when the tragedy of " Othello" was performed in a cre-
ditable manner.

NEW ROMAN CATHOLIC CHAPEL AT THURNHAM,
NEAR LANCASTER.-011 Thursday last the foundation-
stone of a chapel was laid by the Rev. Dr. Brown, vicar-
apostolic of Lancashire. £lOOO was raised in twenty
years among the congregation, and £2OOO was given by
Miss Dalton, of Thurnhain Hall, towards its erection.
EXPORTATION OF GRAIN AND POTATOES TO IRELAND,
FROM PRESTON.—In ordinary years, very considerable
quantities of wheat and all descriptions of grain are im-
ported into Preston from Ireland ; indeed this trade em-
ploys the greater part of the shipping business in connec-
tion with the Ribble up to Preston. Since the prevailing
scarcity in Ireland, however, several of the vessels have
had to leave that country without cargoes, and for some
time back a considerable export trade of these articles
from iPreston has been carried on. During the present
week, considerable quantities of grain of all sorts, includ-
ing wheat, oats, barley flour, American barrel flour, be-
sides heavy freights of seed potatoes, have gone to the
sister country.

A fatal accident occurred at Manchester on Monday
morning, by the fall of a portion of Messrs. Grey's cotton-
mill, Pollard-street. It consisted of a boiler-house, 40
feet by 32, on the ground-floor, and above it a room filled
with jack-frames, the whole being surmounted by a water-
cistern. The accident occurred about ten in the morning,
when about a dozen men were at work in the upper storey.
One half of the floor, with its machinery, and the corres-
ponding half of the cistern, were at once, and without the
slightest warning, precipitated into the boiler-house.
Three young men were afterwards taken out of the ruins,
from amongst the broken machinery, two of whom, being
found to be alive, were taken to the infirmary. The third
was dead. There was about £6OO worth of machinery in
the room, which is destroyed ; and altogether Messrs.
Gray will be losers to the amount of about £lOOO by the
accident.

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

Onr correspondent from (3oerwen, Anglesea, is informed that
parishioners have not the power of withdrawing themselves
from a poor-law union. The object can only be accomplished
by an act of parliament; and the chance of getting such an
act passed is very remote, and the expense to be incurred of
course enormous.
"Eternity," who denounces in strong terms the article of
the Mercury upon the general fast, will see that we have briefly
referred to it elsewhere. Such outrages upon decency may,
however, safely be ing, to the public indignation which they
excite. Our co esponlent may be assured that the sinking
print in questioi, is r Adly losing its power to offehd.
The lines on Spring, evidently from a juvenile pen, are not up
' to our standard.
.Z.—We have heard of the loan from government for the carry-
ing out of the works over the water as a rumour, but cannot
satisfy our correspondent as to the nature of the security to
be given. We presume that government will be satisfied on
that point.
THE SHUTTER NUTEA NCE.—We have received frequent com-
plaints on this subject; and it really ought to attract the at-
tention of the authorities. It is hard that people cannot be
allowed to walk along any of our.principal streets without the
risk of having their ears carried away, or their heads frac-
tured by abutters violently projected up from the cellars of
the shops at closing time. Arrangements might easily be
made to have them raised through an opening inside the shops,
near enough to the door to serve every purpose of conveni-
ence and.despatch.
`C. H. H. P." We believe that the Factory Commissioners'
Reports for the last ten years can only he had in London.
A bookseller would be able to procure them. An excellent
work on the cotton manufacture was published a few years
ago by Mr. James Wheeler of Manchester. We prefer it to
Baines's History of the Cotton Manufacture, as having been
written by a gentleman living in the centre of the cotton dis-
tricts, and bringing the reader's information down to a later
period. For a thorough exposition of the factory system,
our correspondent ought to read the Fleet Papers of Richard
Oastler, and the speeches of that gentleman, Lord Ashley
and other well-informed advocates of the Short Time Bill.
There is no work that we are aware of devoted to Railway
Statistics.
The letter of "H. P." shall be handed to the proprietor of the
Ferry referred to. Any notice from us would only give in-
. creased circulation to the announcement referred to.

BLOCKADE OF OPORTO.

" Portuguese Consulate, London, March 18, 1847.
" Sir,—l beg to inform you that in consequence of the
port of Oporto being in a state of blockade, I have re-
ceived orders from the Portuguese government not to
grant bills of health or clearances for that port. I com-
municate this for your government, in case you may think
it necessary to make it public.
" I remain, Sir, your obedient servant,
(Signed) " F. J. VAN ZELLER.
" To W. Dobson, Esq., Secretary, Lloyd's."

The following copy of a letter from her Majesty's go-
vernment, relative to the recent seizure of the Lusitania
by the Portuguese squadron blockading Oporto, has been
forwarded to Lloyd's :

" Foreign Office, March 18, 1847.
" Sir,—l am directed by Viscount Palmerston to ac-
knowledge the receipt of your letter of the 16th instant,
respecting the capture of your vessel, the Lusitania, with
her cargo, which had cleared out of Oporto before the
20th of February, but which had been unable to put to
sea until after that date, in consequence of the state of
the weather and the high sea on the bar, and I am to state
to you in reply that her Majesty's minister at Lisbon has
been instructed to demand from the Portuguese govern-
ment that all vessels captured under such circumstances
shall be forthwith liberated, together with their cargoes.

WHITEHAVEN JUNCTION RAILWAY.-011 Thursday
last, this important line of railway was opened with great

rejoicings all along the line, after which the Earl of Lolls-
dale entertained 170 guests to a sumptuous dinner at
Whitehaven Castle. There was a grand hall at the
Savings' Bank in the evening.
The Great Western Railway has made a very good re-
gulation in respect to passengers' luggage. In addition
to the label showing the destipation of the luggage, a ticket

with the initial letter of the passenger's name is also
pasted on it, and the luggage is sorted alphabetically, so
that when a passenger goes to Paddington, supposing his
name is Brown, he has only to go to a bin marked B, and
find his luggage at once.

Mr. DENISTOUN said he could not consent to the house
going into committee without stating his objections to the
measure, which having done, he moved that the committee
be postponed until after Easter.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL was of opinion that the house
should go into committee without further delay. He took
it for granted that the principle of the bill was decided,
and therefore its details and alterations would be best dis-
cussed with the speaker in the chair.

Mr. BRIGHT complained that the noble lord, as Fi

proceed thus far without fully stating what his decided
opinion on the subject was. The noble lord, however,
remained quiet, which he (Mr. Bright) much regretted ;
it was only due to the house and the country to know the
yeasons which actuated the noble lord in the course he

Vas pursuing.
Lord Joux RUSSELL felt bound to say he could not see

him as to his conduct in reference to the measure. (Hear,
bear.) He thought it right, when he came into office, to
leave the subject an open one, to be decided ti‘.7 ti hrit§e.

ter and more fully investigated and discussed. He did
not see what objection there could be to limit the hours
zf labour to eleven. Whether they could with safety be
reduced to ten was an important question, and would re-

quire full consideration of the committee.' Messrs. Mar-
elan, of Leeds, had reduced the hours of labour in their
'extensive factories to eleven ; and it had been found to
act advantageously and satisfactorily. Ile (Lord John
Russell), however, had never contended that the same
rice of wages would be given to operatives if they worked
ten, eleven, or twelve hours a day ; he thought that could
not and would not be the case. If, however, there was a
reduction of the hours of labour, the master would obtain
a saving in lessening the expense of wear and tear of ma-

one, and after the best consideraiion he could give it he
was of opinion it would be better and wiser to limit the
hours of labour to eleven, and not, as this bill proposed,
to reduce them to ten hours a day. (Hear, hear.) In
committee he should vote for an eleven hours clause,

which he thought preferable to ten hours.
The SPEAKER having left the chair, the house resolved

Lord MORPETH could-not consent to limit the hours of
labour more than one hour a day, and if that were not

CROSSKILL'S PATENT ROLLER.

IHE blistered surface of the Soil, from the late
severe Frosts, now requires to be pressed firm and so'id,
that the Young Wheats may be securely rooted therein, before
the blowing winds lay bare the Plants.
The Special Gold Medal of the Royal Agricultural Society
was awarded to the serrated toothed Patent Roller for its su-
periority in producing this and other important effects: It far
excels Sheep-treading, being more equal, rapid,and effectual in
its application. By its timely use the quantity is increased,
and the quality improved of Wheat, Barley, Oats, Clover, Tur-
nips. Potatoes, Beet, Grass, &c. It kills the slug, and stops
toe Wireworm. The Farmers of Lincolnshire, to multiply the
power and lessen the cost of production, have purchased up-
wards of 300 Patent Rollers.

DUBLIN CORN MARKET, MARCH 19

Our Grain market has become suddenly depressed, with
small supplies, yet very little doing; those engaged in the trade
both here and in Liverpool being aware that large supplies of
bread stuffs—very large, indeed—are absolutely under way for
this country from America, and may be weekly, if not daily,
expected.
Were it not for the unexpected demand for Wheat in the
French market, which has latterly become higher than our
own, we would have a decided reduction before now; as it is,
Wheat is more difficult to sell, while Oats and Barley are de-
cidedly lower. It cannot be denied but that our merchants
hold very large stocks of Flour, Indian Corn, and even Oat-
meal, all of which must soon come to market at lower prices.
Among the various bread stuffs expected from America, that
of Indian Corn, Oatmeal, and Pease, we believe, is peculiarly
adapted to Ireland, and for which, it appears, we have no com-
petitors. This being the case, there cannot be a doubt of a
prospect of plenty, when we contrast the consumption of this
country with the large quantities of food in course of shipment
from America.

LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, MARCH 19.
Sugar.—The market continues dull, without any great change
in price. The sales consist's:if 200 hhds. 8.P., 4000 bags Bengal
and 3000 mats Mauritius.—Foreizn. The business of the week
has been very in,lderate, amounting only to 800 bris. and bags
Brazil, at former prices, and 300 boxes Havana, all faults.
Molasses.—The trade are unwilling to purchase at late prices,
and the only sale reported has been an inferior parcel of De-
merara, from the quay, at 245. per cwt.
Coffee.—The transactions are quite unimportant this week ;
they comprise 20 tees. Jamaica, 130 bags Rio and 50 bags Costa
Rica, at steady prices.
90 cases East India Ginger brought 455. to 475. 6d. per cwt.,
and a small lot of black Pepper 2.2 d. per lb.
No sales of Cocoa or Pimento.
Rice.-500 tees. Carolina sold at 255. Gd. to 275., and 5000

tations to be accurately adjusted; the business is very limited.

A PORTER.

THE MERCURY AND ITS ADVERTISERS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
Stn,—As a tradesman of Liverpool, compelled to keep
my name and business pretensions before the world,
have long been annoyed, and heavily taxed too, by the
number of papers necessary to be advertised in for the
purpose of informing all classes of the public with respect
to the business lam carrying on. This difficulty, I find,
is about to be increased by the grasping spirit of one of
the dearest of your contemporaries—the dearest to the
pockets, not to the affections, of most of those who have
to do with him. I refer to the announced intention of
the Mercuny to publish his paper twice a week,—viz:, on
Tuesday and Friday. Now, this is the predicament in
which I am placed by the Mercury's rather late acknow-
ledgment of the principle upon which you and others have
acted, that newspapers; like other articles of sale, ought
to be cheapened. I have advertised for years in the
Mercury, under the idea that it was the most extensively
circulated paper in Liverpool. Of late I have felt that
other papers were fast creeping upon the heels of that fn
question, and that some (amongst them your own valued
publication) were superior in influence, and nearly equal
in circulation. Still I kept to the Mercury, convinced
that its columns were the proper medium of appeal to my
low customers. For the future, however, I feel undeter-
mined how to act. I have sufficient knowledge of the
world to know that the kind of subscribers which the
Mercury has hitherto had are not likely to take both
Tuesday's and Friday's papers. Barbers' shops and jerry
shops, little country public-houses, and some private
families, cannot afford to take in two papers, and will not
take one containing only half a week's news. If, there-
fore, I choose the Friday's Mercury as most likely of the
two to have a decent circulation, I cannot assure myself
that I am getting the same value for my money as for-
merly ; indeed, I am sure of this fact. On the other
hand, if I give my support to respectable papers, I think
I shall derive increased value from my advertisements,
and I can supply the want of the Mercury by a slightly
increased liberality in circulars, &c.
My object, sir, in writing to you, is to ask of advertisers
like myself to pause before committing themselves to the
support of what is obviously an attempt to extend a
monopoly. If the truth could be known, the Mercury's
circulation is at present a very inferior one to some of the
papers in the town. I dare say your own bona fide sale
exceeds it. The fact, sir, is, that in these times trades-
men cannot afford to advertise in half the papers they are
solicited by ; and my own resolution is, that a half
Mercury's circulation I shall nop pay for at double price.
—I, am, sir, your obedient servant,

proof at all that iron tra,..7els could not be used for the
purposes of war. They
bear in mind that vessels
num for war,
but
for rneramtile purposes were 734. his
opinion was that an iron vessel ttfigitt
made safer, and
better calculated to resist the impeeus of cannon balls
than if constructed of wood, He would ~avpa vessel
similar to the one they had seen that day glide into 11.14,
water, on the sides of which should be introduced a net-.
work of iron plates placed on edge, so near together as to
prevent the possibility of any cannon ball ever passing
through. (Hear, hear.) Such a vessel might be made so
as to be invulnerable. Another plan was to construct ono
iron vessel within another, leaving an intermediate space
which should be filled up with same invulnerable material
to stop the progress of cannon balls. [Mr. Wade, cotton
for instance; (laughter.)] [Mr. B. Moore, not gun-cot-
ton ; (renewed laughter)] Mr. Vernon concluded by
thanking the company for the honour they had done to
the firm to which he belonged, and the patience with
which they had listened to his remarks.
Mr. Garston proposed the health of the ladies, which
was responded to in suitable terms by Mr. M`Nichol.
Several other toasts were then proposed, amongst which
were, " Messrs. Fawcett, Preston and C 0.," who are to
supply the engines for the Guadalquivir, and " The
Press," the latter of which was responded' to in appro-
priate and truly eloquent terms by Mr. Martin, of the Li-
verpool Mail. We need scarcely add that they were drunk,
as were all those that preceded them, with the greatest
enthusiasm.

The proceedings terminated at two o'clock, all present
being highly gratified at the event which had brought
them together, and the liberality and kindness displayed
by Messrs. Vernon and Co. on the interesting occasion.
