February, 1843,

The Rev. JONATHAN BROOKS, Rector,
in the Chair,
A Letter from Mr. James Dowdall, the Governor of the
Workhouse, tendering his Resignation on account of ill-
health, having been read,
It was unanimously Resolved,
That the Select Vestry, in accepting the Resignation of
Mr. Dowdall, are anxious to record their conviction that,
until Mr. Dowdall's energies were enfeebled by indisposition,
the Parish possessed in him a most valuable and effective
servant, and, on retiring from the service of the Parish, he
carries with him the best wishes of the Select Vestry for the
restoration of his health, and for the welfare of himself and
Mrs. Dowdall, to whose merit, as Matron, the Select Vestry
bear willing testimony.

WANTED, a MAN and his WIFE, to fill the Offices of
GOVERNOR and MATRON for the WORKHOUSE of
the PARISH of LIVERPOOL, and if without incumbrance
it would be preferred.

The Governor and his Wife will have a Furnished House
provided for them within the walls, and will be accommo-
dated with Board, Lodging, and Washing, and Firing and
Candles ; and, in addition, the fixed Salary of the Governor
is £3OO per Annum and that of the Matron £5O per Annum.
Sealed applications for these Offices are to be transmitted
to the Secretary of the Select Vestry previous to the 11th
March next, indorsed " Governor and Matron."
The Number of Inmates in the Liverpool Workhouse ap-
proaching 2000 persons, it is hoped none will apply for the
situations who are not in some measure acquainted with the
details of the Government of large Workhouses or other
similar Establishments.

THE LONDON REVIEW, a Monthly Digest of Lite-
rature, Science, and Public Affairs.—ln offering a new
Periodical to the Public, the Editors of the London Review
have reason to believe that their Monthly Journal will be
found to fill a vacuum in Literature that has been often ac-
knowledged. The stream of publication is now so rapid that
few readers can afford either the time or the expense necessary
for the perusal of works which yet contain much that is va-
luable, and sometimes essential to be known. The vast dis-
coveries in Science now constantly in progress ; the devel-
opment of new forms and elements in our social existence;
the application of established principles in new directions;
the naratives of the traveller; the researches of the histo-
rian ; the lighter but not unimportant volumes of the novel-
ist ; all these compose a mass of literary novelty containing
information of the highest interest, yet whose very bulk raust
debar the greater number of readers from its acquisition.
The great object of the London Review will thus consist
in giving every month a reflection, faithful, and, if possible,
full, of all the useful and interesting features contained in
the publications of the period; affording to every work and
every subject the attention demanded by their importance,
and endeavouring always to fill its pages with the materials
best calculated to interest and instruct.
The criticisms of the Review will be condensed as far as is
consistent with the full elucidation of the subject under dis-
cussion. And no diffuse comment written merely for dis-
play will be allowed to encroach upon its space to the exclu-
sion of more useful matter.

Each Number will consist of nearly 100 pages, printed in
a handsome octavo form, and published at the price of One
Shilling.
