THE CORN TRADE.

Friday, 21st December, 1832.

The Corn Trade, since Tuesday, has been fiat for want of demand,
but at this day's market there was a fair inquiry for fine red Irish
wheats at full prices, Limerick 7s to 7s Qd, for prime—mixed Tralee
7s 4td, and Belfast at 7s sd. Middling kinds and white samples are
dull, and prices are nearly nominal. Oats are dull, and prices, hardly
supported. In other articles no change. Some old Riga flax-seed has
been sold at 33s per bol.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, FRIDAY, DEC. 21.

The week's arrivals of both Grain and Flour are very moderate.—
The buyers who attended to-day showed very litte disposition to pur-
chase. For a few fine parcels of Wheat more money was asked and
obtained, but such samples as are tender meet no improvement. Bar-
ley, Beans, and Peas remain as on Monday. The Oat trade remains
dull, at Monday's terms. In Flour no alteration.

HOLLAND.

THE HAGUE, Dec. 18.—In the Second Chamber of the State!,
General the Minister for Foreign Affairs communicatedtuar
continuation of the negociations at London and Paris. ,
Government had declared itself ready to accept the treaty Prat
posed by Prussia with the modifications indicated, but di
Lord Grey said the consideration of the treaty would only col
delay, and the citadel of Antwerp must be evacuated before al%
further negociations could take place. A similar answer Is
given at Paris. The Minister declared that the Netherla9 g
desired peace as much as the other Powers, but such a Peac.i
as was consistent with its honour and interests. If we cane
urs
obtain it, we must follow the glorious example of our ancest%
by defending our rights, freedom, and independence, and tite
to the aid of Providence in the defence of our just cause. 11
Minister concluded by declaring, that the Government was:,
ways ready to resume the negociations in such a manner as 11-,
came an independent state. The President replied, that re,
Chamber received the communication with respect, and the
quested him to assure his Majesty of the sentiments of
Chamber.

MAURITIUS.
By a proclamation of the Governor of the Mauritius, of tbe
3rd of September, it is decreed, in consequence of the death
John Justin Cooper, judge of the Supreme Court of Appeal'
that until his Majesty's pleasure be known, Edward Renton,
Esq., shall continue to exercise the office of procureur-geocrle
and Nicholas Gustave Bestel, that of assistant judge of
Supreme Court. The Governor, in honour of his Majesty
birth-day, had remitted to eleven prisoners, imprisoned !°
various periods, the remainder of the term of their respective
imprisonments.

placed this night hors de combat, that is, killed and wounded, '-
described as amounting to 28 on the Trench side. The rioT:
her of killed and wounded from the commencement is not plw
licly, avowed.
The King, Leopold, who has been here during thilast-Mfhrerec
days, is indefatigable in his movements to procure tiiewe"3"
of his subjects.
There is danger now in passing from Antwerp to Bercheo
the Mechlin gate ; a countryman, yesterday, had his leg shot
there. The diligences pass there at a gallop, as the cane°
shots and shells have fallen near them.
The best informed persons now describe the breach baded
as to be fully armed to-night, and to begin the play to-morrn
There is an admission now on the part of some officers, tile
the number of soldiers altogether wounded or killed since to
beginning- amounts to somewhat more than 600. The ships 5
maid in the Scheldt as they were yesterday. I saw them
their'sails loose to dry. N
HALF-PAST ONE.-The firing still continues without inte:
mission; the weather cloudy. The breach-battery will,.it„
thought, require 48 hours, and perhaps more, before the oPe',
ing be made. It will be strange to find the French soldiers
sault the citadel on Christmas morning. It appears to be e'
pected earlier—on the 23d.

n
HEAD-QUARTERS, NEAR ANTWERP, DEC. 5.—M. the veil°. ja
In the letter which I had the honour to write to you in the
of the 30th of November, in reply to yours of that date, I clea
explained to you the line of conduct marked down for me by n'Y 0t
structions relative to the siege of the Citadel of Antwerp. I d°° the
demand in the name of my Government any thing more than
execution of the treaty of the 15th November. 1831, a treaty sic' oit
and guaranteed. To attack the Citadel of Antwerp, which Yog °I! the
to give up to me, I now make use of no means but those withoin
the
enceinte of the city ; and I quoted to you the example' anc!
right which justify my conduct in this respect. By prevegtin';
fire from the interior of the city from being opened against Y-:;°'
give the strongest proof of my desire to spare the city and its P-10)
lation, since the city offers me means and a spot for attack D"mg
would promptly bring about your destruction. My intention be.oo
to close all communication with you, if, notwithstanding all lon
statements, you inhumanly sacrifice the City of Antwerp' coy
ready to make you feel that your conduct will not be the less
trary to your own interests than •to humanity, and that Y.
repent the consequences thereof.

`• Receive the assurances of my consideration,

LANCASTER COUNTY ELECTION.

SOUTHERN DIVISION.
AThird Candidate has at length appeared in the person of
Sir Thomas D. Hesketh, Bart., and the question is now
at issue, shall Lancashire have for one of its four Members a
Commercial man!

ELECTORS ! whence has sprung the great landed rental, the
commercial wealth of our County? Is it not from its Manu-
factures? What was Laneashiie before Arkwright invented
?.the Spinning Frame, and improved the Steam Engine;
and what is Lancashire no Has it not become the most
important pi:oviutc of the E Aire ?
Electors,, is is to the commercial industry and the mechanical
ingenuity of its people, that Lancashire owes this wonderful
change; an industry which never tires—au ingenuity which is
never exhausted.

Our County •Representatives are about. to be doubled, and
our Merchants, our Manufacturers, and our Artisans-desire to
have one Commercial man among the number.
Is this a presumptuous desire ? do they seek for what is un-
reasonable ?

Electors, of South, Lancashire! this question, must be an-
swered by you : the decision is placed in your hands.

CORONER'S INQUESTS.

Inquisitions were taken before Mr. Bailiff Aspinall, one of
the coroners for this borough, as under:—
FATAL INTOXICATION.—On Friday last, touching the death
of Margaret Roney. The deceased, who with another woman,
lived in a cellar in Lace-street, was much addicted to liquor;.
on the 16th ult., her fellow-lodger went out about two o'clock in
the aft,ernoon' leaving her sitting by the fire, smoking a pipe,
and very much intoxicated. Some time afterviards some chil-
dren at play near the spot, looking through the window, disco
vered- her lying ou the floor in the front of the fire with her
clothes all in names, and alarmed the neighbours, who went to
her assistance. Two medical men were speedily in attendance,
by whose desire she was taken to the Infirmary, where she lin-
gered until Thursday week.—Verdict, accid.ntully burnt to
aeuth.

On Saturday, touching the death of John Hunter. The de-
ceased was a blacksmith and worked at Pownall-street smithy;
in the same yard where the smithy. stands, are the stables of
Mr. •Kaye, who keeps waggons for hire, and on Saturday morn
ing the driver of one of she waggons was on the outsiue of his
horses, preparing to start, when the deceaSed went up altd
spoke to him, after which, the driver went round to the near side
and taking hold of the horse's head, was proceeding out of the
yard, when the deceased who, unobserved. by the uriver, was
walking out of the yard, was jammed between the posts and
the wheel. A fellow workman of the deceuied, observing the
occurrence, called out to the driver,_ who immediately backed
the waggon, and the deceased walked into the smithy, and then
tell to tile ,ground, and before a surgeon could reach the spot he
had breathed his last.—Verdict, accidentally haled.
On Monday touching the death of Thonasliarrison, an infant,
eighteen months old. 'the mother of the deceased, who living
in Gladstone-street, in stooping to lift him from the floor on
Wednesday last, over-turned a saucepan that stood on the bob,
containing about a pint of Uoiling water, which fell on bins and
scalded him so severely on the -neck and shoulders, that although
he was immediately taken• to the Dispensary, and time pares
dressed with hour, and subsequently attended by one Au the
surgeons, he died on Satur4lay.—N erdict, accidental death.
Also on view of the body of a man unknown. James -Dux-
bury, one of the dock-police, being on duty on Pridtly'd<filtig
a little after seven o'clock, on the west-side of Canning's-doek,
heard a plunge in the water and sprung his rattle for assistauce,
several others of the dock-police came, and after dragging some
time with the grappling irons they drew up the corpse of the de-
ceased, and a stug.eon being sent-for, pronounced that he was
quite dead.—Verdict, owned,. . .

TO THE EDITOR OP THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD

SIR,--1 congratulate you sincerely upon your justooo'
rational departure from the ultra principles of your first vor
ber; be assured, Sir, the well-thinking Dissenters are not 3
enemies

dist
For my part,. Dissenter as I am, I do not hesitate to say tube
I am upon principle au advocate for the continuance of
iti
Established Church: nut, of course because I approve "el
ordinances, but because I am no republican, and becaock,
conceive that it is an integral part of the British mono; .cd.
and that, if it is abolished, that monarchy will be destS:).o
I am convinced that the present hatred against the Esta":"-001
Church is simultaneous with a hatred against the constitutv,i_eeli
monarchy, and so long as the church stood in the way hel hod
me and the enjoyment of my civil privileges, I confess re'
an inclination to hate it too: but now that every religio 0 aer
striction is removed, I view it with Dr. Chalmers, as ebrif"
tined instrument for propagating and augmenting the over-
,tianity of our land;" and, with him, I should "regret it'
throw as a catastrophe of deadly import to the religieufwiterl
racter of our nation." An Established Church, with tull+lbiogs,
toleration, is, I believe, in the present imperfect state ofbut
not only essential to the preservation of the monarchy'
conducive to the moral and religious welfare of the peel'lc'e the
Still, however, although as a royalist, I wish to se j. I
church preserved, as a Christian I wish to see it refartecatist:
wish to see its Bishops not expelled from Parliament', "
they have the same constitutional right to their seats toerdefroo
the King has to his seat upon the throne; not preveorte
voting in civil matters, because, in the present frenzy lecritor:

changes) may act as a salutary drag upon the wheels vilyite'
pitate reform; but rendered more independent of the 111001
by the prohibition of translations, and the better proper
of their revenues. I wish to see pluralities restricted;.,cecl,
if possible, abolished; I wish to see superfluous wealth reususible,
and degrading: poverty relieved. Above all, I wish, if Pe, coy'
to see the abuses of patronage (those worst of abosetsiat
rected. I wish that no ignorant man should be able-- id De
slothful man should dare—that no immoral man shoal
endured to assume or to retain the sacred character of a aot
ter of the Most High. But, for this very reason, 1„w1
trust the reform of the church to a Unitarian h..,7,, , whoThornely, or to a self-called churchman like Mr. Ewa"'oarg°
is either so weak as not to understand the result of thecr self'
which he is adopting, or so recreant as to lend himself' ,
interested purposes, to the aecomplishment of measures 6005
he ought, as a gentleman and the subject of a constitti
monarchy, to reject and abhor.—Yours, &e.

LONDON LATEST NEWS.
( From our Correxpondent.)
LONDON, SATURDAY, Half-past Seven o'Clock,

This day has passed off like the preceding days • of the 'Week,
out any material alteration in the prices of public seettrities,•ard mer-
chants continue in'a painful state of 'suspense respe,•l';n.; the tpt.:,4ion
of War or peace. As I 'anticiptited, in my tiirmer conimoui,,ation% ttte
attack•upon -Atitiveti-ha been further delayed,, and I begin rco •to
think it will be postponed, like 'seine other subjects of
sion, :sine die; You will—perceive, 'that the lauds are
,st.,,:ady is the
market, but I still think -thatthis steadiness is kttriblit:Nie to The.
difficulty of obtaining any, lucrative employment • for earital. The
embargo on our trade to Holland has, of course, caused a.•sts-
pension of business with that country, and no other market can,
at present, be :found for-11-te gbods intended for that .destinatk.m.
Although the prices of Itinds' and merchandise, 'generally, .-have'
lately undergone no great changes, it is not to be inferred that public
anxiety and Uneasiness have at all subsided. The all-absorbing ques-
tion of war or peace seems, at least, to the public, to•be completely in
the balance, and in such s state of uncertainty, the smallest dealer is
deterred from making purchases. All the private accounts from Ho',
land represent the Dutch king as, determined to defend.his present
positiOn to the last. Antwerp will.not be,surrendercd peaceably and
its capture would according to the best Military, authorities cost the
French several Weeks:anti several tliiiiisan•ds of livrs, besides the de-
struction of the city, that great object of ,telgian veneration.

TO \CORRESPONDENTS.

We feel obliged by the communication of FIDELIS, ; but, at the pre-
sent moment, we fear his letter will fail to interest our readers.
A COTTON Bitoxipt's address to William Brown, Brig., is of too per-
sonal a nature for publication.
We decline inserting the letter of AN ELECTOR, as we know the re-
port to which he alludes to be incorrect. We are, however, obliged
by his communication.
ANTI-LIBERAL, and X., are in type, and will be givep in our next.
The influx of Communlcatioas at too late an hour fur our present pub-
lication is ruly overwhelming. We feel highly gratified by the
eagerness of our friends to furnish us with their contributions, and
assure thosAvhose favours we omit to particularize, that it is only
from a desire to bestow upon them that attention in the perusal
which we feel to be their due.
Our SUBSC*IBER:4, we are sorry to find, have, in many instances, par-
ticularly at the north end of the town, been disappointed by the
irregularity 91 some of the carriers in delivering their papers.
We beg to assure them, that our best endeavours shall be wed for
the prevention of any further cause for complaint on that score, by
the employment of other carriers, upon whom we can more safely
depend.

CORRESPONDENCE.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL ST4ND/IRD.
SIR,—I was much pleased, by observing in your paper
of Tuesday last, that you had devoted a corner of your
publication for the benefit of your juvenile readers, by
the insertion of "A Child's Morning Thoughts." Trust-
ing that you will continue to consult the taste and the
instruction of the young, as well as the older portion of
those families into which your paper may find access, by
the occasional insertion of articles in prose and verse, of
a strictly moral and religious tendency, _I beg to send
you, for insertion, in your poet's corner, the enclosed
lines, written by the late excellent Dr. Adam Clarke, in
the Album of a lady, with whom he was on a visit a very
short time before he died.

I venture, also, to transcribe the following insertion of
the same respected individual in the Album of another of
his particular friends. This extract, so descriptive of the
doctor's feelings on a retrospect of his past life, and in
the view of his near approach to a better world, will, I
doubt not, prove interesting to your readers:—
" I have enjoy'd the Spring of Life,
I have endured the toils of its Summer,
I have cull'd the fruits of its Autumn,
I am now passing tb ro' the riyours of its Winter :
And am neither forsaken of (ion,
Nor abandoned by Man.
" I see at no great distance, the dawn of a new Day;
The first of a Spring that shall be Eternal:
It is advancing to meet me!
I haste to embrace it !
Welcome; Welcothe eternal Spring !—Hallelujah."
ADAM CLARKE.
L cannot forego this opportunity of stating the gratifi-
cation which 1 telt by, the manly and unequivocal ex-
pression of your political and religious sentiments in the
last two numbers of your paper. 'rhe present, certainly,
is not a time when the true friends of the religion and
the constitution of the country are called upon to avoid
obloquy, or an ambiguouS or evasive expression of their
principles or opinions.—Yours, &c., PARENS.

THE CHURCH AND THE DISSENTERS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
Sta,'—ln reply to my remarks respecting the non-payment
of Dissenters to the Church it may be said that if they dont pay
by tithes ; at least they do by church rates.
Suppose they do: to wnatdoes the payment amount? The Church
rates in this parish are usually three half-pence ; never I be-
lieve exceed two.pcnce in the pound. In the one case then, a
ten-pifnd'householder pays fifteen-pence to the church; in
the other, one and eight-pence. Mr. Thorncly, if he is rated
at £BO a year, pays 10 shillings, or at most 155.: and of this
only about one-fourth goes to the Clergy, to whom therefore
he pays less than four shillings a year: part of the remainder
goes to provide cemeteries, &c. for the decent burial of the
poor. If this is not making mountains of mole-hills, Ido not
know what is. . Suppose, however, the Dissenters succeed in
paying none but their own ministers; of course, in common
justice, they will cheerfully support their own poor. If they-
refuse church rates I certainly will refuse poor rates, for any
but church of England poor. It is boastingly said, that there
are 36,000 Roman Catholics in Liverpool. Of these I venture
to assert 30,(X)0 will be poor. Let then the 6000 maintain
the 30,00 U. It is boastingly said, that two-thirds of the popula-
tion are Dissenters. If their, the new borough, which is to
return Messrs. Ewart and Thornely, contains 200,000 souls,
about 1a5,000 will be Dissenters, and of these at least three-
fourths will be poor. Let then the one;fourth keep the other
three. If Mr. Thornely's schemes fur the destruction of our

PEDSETRIANISM AMONG THE ALPS.--Clle should be in
Switzerland to have the full value of those useful lower 'aims
Which Nature has provided for.our locomotion. Britian,
is for
pn Englishman, is being too mumach dt ; 'France, gene-
rally Speaking, too flat and urivaried—Germany, too dull and
too phlegmatic—Holland, too swampy and too low ;
Maly; 'too warm and malariiNs, for the height of rambling en.
joyment.- It is only in Switierland that we have, within the
compass of a day's march, all the varieties of climate from
:Iceland to Scicily—of scenery, from Madeira to Nova Zembla,
of people, of language, of dress, manners, customs, and com-
plexions. In such' a country one may, indeed, enjoy pedes-
trianizing in perfection. There is something inspiring-iv free
in the swinging gait of a pedestrian among the Alps. Attired
;in his bleusse and tap, tufa accoutred with his pole, knapsack,
and their subordinate paraphernalia of telescope, spirit flask,
&c., he presents s fine picture of animation, brushing oh,
en route, at sunrise—yigour in his step, and his spirits elate
and buoyant- as- the mountain air which contributes to ha
vivacity. He traverses an ever-varying range of valley, forest,
heath, snow, and glacier—now pausing to admire the landscape,
and now to converse with a group of pt asants; or to study
the geological or botanical features of the scene. He spends
the heat of the day at an auberge, or perhaps` some lonely
chalet in his track, enjoys at a refreshing siesta for two or three
hours, and sets out again to pursue his walk. As he passes
into the vallies tosiards the close of the day, a descending sun
is reflected from the polished surface of some lovely expanse of
lake, and gilds a rich prospect of mountain, wood, and dell, with
the exquisite mellow shades of evening, placidly harmo-
nizing with the traveller's own subduded feelings ; while,
befoie he reaches the village inn, which is to shelter him for
the night, the moon smiles " brighter and more bright" over
a dark blue chain of mountains on the one hand, and the)
other the " snow-clad summits of the hoary
.Alps," in the dis-
tance, are radiant with that carmine glow imparted to them
by the setting sun.—Aurora Borealis,
