tiltre still balks and bowls %/calm! unseen. No ad-
Aration but would injure their reputation by advan-

cing such a character.

This is truly horrible. Poor there must be everywhere.
Indigence will find its way and set up its hideous state in
the heart of a great and luxurious city. Amid the thou-
sand narrow lanes and by-streets of a populous metro-
polis there mast always, we fear, be much suffering—
much that offends the eye—much that lurks unseen.
But that within the precincts of wealth, gaiety, and
fashion, nigh the regal grandeur of St. James's, close on
the palatial splendour of Bayswater, on the confines of
the old and the new aristocratic quarters, in a district
where the cautious refinement of modern design has ab-
stained from erecting one single tenement for poverty;
which seems, as it were, dedicated to the exclusive en-
joyments of wealth,—that there want, famine, and dis-
ease, and vice should stalk in all their kindred horrors,
consuming body by body, and soul by soul !
It is, indeed, a monstrous state of things. Enjoyment
the most absolute, that bodily ease, intellectual excite-
men, or the more innocent pleasures of sense can supply
to man's craving, brought in close contact with the most
unmitigated misery! Wealth from its bright saloons
laughing—an insolently heedless laugh, at the unknown
wounds of want! Pleasure, cruelly but unconsciously
in,cking the the pain that moans below i All contrary
things jostling one another—all contrary, save the vice
which tempts and the vice which is tempted !
It is a sickening theme. It brings home to the heart
the utter weakness—the utter hardness of our nature.
There is wealth, there is skill, there is art, there is
science, there is theory,--nll these enough, and more than
enough, in England. Most abundant are they in the
heart of England. Yet does the life blood rush in a more
healthy stream ? Does the pulse of the nation beat with
a more generous rapture? Whom hath its wealth made
happier ? Whom has its skill taught to shun the moral
pestilence that consumes its tens of thousands? Whom
has its theory taught the high and paramount duty which
man owes to the infirmities of his brother man ?
There are men of many thenties abroad. ,Some would
build in the human race within parallelograms, and bid
them go and practise virtue intuitively. Others would
amputate tariffs and navigation laws, -crying to all, the
halt, and the blind, and the penniless, " Go trade, and be
rich." Some there are who, believing that society is
hollow, false, and tottering, would restore long-forgotten
rules, and bring the vague and casual charity of men under
the cognizance and direction of the church. But these
men are laughed at by the age. For is not the age utili-
tarian, and therefore wise?

But let all men, whether of theory or of practice, re-
member this—that within the most courtly precincts of
the richest city on God s earth there may be found, night
after night, winter after winter, women—young in years
—old in sin and suffering—outcasts from society—ROT-
TlNG FROM FAMINE, FILTH AND DISEASE Let theni
remember this, and learn not to theorize, but to act. God
knows, there is much room for action now-a-days.

To EMIGRANTS.—The Montreal Gazette, 22d of Au-
gust, notices a report published by a committee of the
Niagara District Council, which may prove of interest to
persons intending to emigrate to British North America.
The committee state that there are no labourers required
in the district, but that one or two hundred male and fe-
male farm servants understanding agricultural work would
find employment. They consider that very fatourable
opportunities are offered for the settlement of farmers
bringing a capital of from £2OO to £5OO with them, but
that a further importation of mere labour or skill, with-
out capital, would be injurious, and increase, not the
means of employment, but the calls upon local charity.
They attribute this state of things, so different to what
prevails in Canada West generally, to local causes, namely,
the very easy access to the district by river and canal n
every direction, and the great works in progress in the
district, which have attracted to it an undue proportion
of the spare population, not only of British America, but
of the United States, and to the unfitness of those who
come to seek permanent settlement, for the agricultural
lab airs of the country, and their unwillingness to adapt
themselves to its circumstances.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AND Loss OF LIFE.—An out-
break of fire took place i❑ St. Martin's-court, St. Mar-
tin's-lane, on Wednesday, which has proved destructive
in its consequences and been attended with the loss of
three lives. The premises were in the occupation of Mr.
James Labrarn, a hoot and shoemaker, occupying the
houses Nos. 28 and 36. The first intimation of the fire
was given by the police constable on duty, and a soldier
who happened to be passing at the time, who both per-
ceived a very strong smell of burning. They had no
sooner given the alarm than the inmates of Mr. Labram's
house disc

overed that the back aad lower part of the pre.
raises were in flames, and that all escape, except by the
windows or roof, was cut off. Mr. Labram and his family
escaped at the windows, and by scrambling along the
leads. In the upper part of the house were Mr. and Mrs.
Pollock, who, with their two children and Mrs. Pollock's
brot

ler, lodged on the second floor. As soon as they
were wade aware of their danger, Mr. Pollock and his
hr other-in-law got upon the roof. in order to ascertain
the be,t means of effecting an escape with Mrs. Pollock

A made

such rapid pro4ress that the bed-room was already en-
veloped in the flames, and they could not get back ; al-

screams of the poor mother and her children for assistance,
which it was impossible for them even to attempt to ren-
der without sharing their fate. Most of the property de-
stroyed was insured.
MEETINGS OF DISTRESSED COLLlERS.—Yesterday
week, there was a meeting of colliers and others at Moor
Flat, St. Helen's, for the purpose of taking into consid-
eration the present state of the trade, and electing dele-
gates to the general meeting of colliers about to be held
at Newcastle-upon-Tyne. The weather was extremely
unfavourable to an open air meeting, but they were pre-
sent from 1500 to 2000 persons. The chair was taken,
shortly after eleven o'clock, by Mr. Henry Tindal.—The
first resolution was to the following effect :—" That it is
the opinion of this meeting that the present rate of wages
is not sufficient to maintain thecolliers and their families."
It appears that the rate of wages in that district was only
2s. per day, for which the men had to work from twelve
to fourteen hours a-day. The men, according to one of
the speakers, were worse of than the African slaves. A
number of speeches were made, and the proceedings were
arrested by a torrent of rain.—Upwards of one hundred
of the delegates who had attended from various parts of
Lancashire, and some few from Cheshire, adjourned,
after the open air meeting, to the house of Mr. George
Huyton, Bridge-street, to transact business, and adopt
measures for the carrying into effect the objects of the
Mine:'s Association of Great Britain and Ireland. They
sat during Monday afternoon and Tuesday forenoon.
The subscriptions received from various delegates
amounted to £96 18s. A delegate meeting was agreed to,
and was held yesterday at Chorley. Another general
meeting will be held on Monday next, in the open air, at
Hurstbrook,near Ashton, when the election of delegates
to attend the Nauional Conference of colliers, at Newcas-
tle, on the 13th November, will take place.
FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE RIVER DEE.-011 Saturday
night week, two canal boats, the Albert and the Britan-
nia, by some means broke loose, near the ship-yard at
Chester, and the weather being tempestuous and a strong
tide rolling against them, they began to lurch and fill with
water. There was on board of the Albert a family named
Vaughan—consisting of the man, his wife, two children,
and an infant—who, together with a young man, were
washed into the river. The fearful cries of the agonised
mother to save her babe, as she saw the helpless child
floating down the tide, were heart-rending in the extreme.
The captain of the Cestrian sloop, of Chester, with most
praiseworthy and prompt alacrity, put out with his boat,
and succeeded after some difficulty in rescuing the dis-
tracted woman from a watery grave. The others were
picked up by the boat of the Rose of June, which unfor-
tunately capsized, and again precipitated the hapless fa-
mily into the water. The elder son swam ashore with his
younger brother in his arms, and then returned to attempt
the rescue of his little sister ; but the tide was too strong
for him, and the child was swept away down the river,
nor has its body yet been found. The accident was said
to have arisen from the gross and cruel conduct of the
captain, of a vessel called the Peggy, to which the flats
were made fast, and who let go a rope which held the
Albert, though requested, for God's sake, not to do so.
This man was afterwards taken into custody, when the
facts were stated before the magistrates; and the mariner,
who gave his name as Owen Evans, was committed to take
his trial on a charge of manslaughter. He was afterwards
admitted to bail in a bond of £lOO, to appear at the next
assizes.

A WRONG PORT.—Last week a curious circumstance
happened in Brigend, which created a good deal of alarm
and excitement in the district of Perth, until the true
state of the matter was discovered. A female servant in
a respectable family in Brigend, after she was in bed on
Thursday night, heard a noise in the coal cellar, which
made her believe that some person was carrying the coals
away ; but not wishing to disturb the family in case she
might be mistaken, she determined not to say anything
about it invil the morning, and until she herself had ex.
ntmned the cellar to see if her suspicions were correct.
Accurdinziy, ah,Att six o'clock, she got up and went into
E(.1*;11-, alien ti.e fit ,t thing she came upon WAS a man's

about a little further, she discovered a waistcoat, a pair of
trousers, a jacket, a stocking, and a shoe ; several of these
also marked with blood. She immediately alarmed the
family, who, after examining carefully the various articles
came to the conclusion that some foul play had been going
ie course of the day it rip-
over night, and went and gave the necessary informa-
tion to the police. During t

—Perlhihire courier

An account of the Fire Police Department. signed by
Capes Ashlin, was read, showing that the income for the
past year had been £2,607 93. 6d., and the expenditure
£3,254 7s. 7d., leaving a deficiency of £646 18s. ld.,
which, according to the Act of Parliament, had been paid
out of the borough fund.
Mr. PROCTER proposed a rate of a half-penny in the

pound. He entered into some explanations of the ac-
count, stating that in consequence of extraordinary ex-
penses for new engines, &c., the sum to the credit of the
department in the borough fund would be reduced from
42.400 to £1,600.

Mr. THORNHILL seconded the motion, which was car-
ried unanimously.

ESTABLISHMENT OF A SAILORS' HOME

The MAYOR said the next subject on the paper was a
motion of which notice had been given as follows, by Mr.
Aikin :—" That it be referred to the Finance Committee
to consider and report on the assistance that can be given
by the Corporation to A Sailors' Home, by appropriation
of land, or the use of a building, subject to resumption or
otherwise." Prior to this motion being regularly brought
before the Council, he begged to read a memorial from the
shipmasters and seamen of the port, which had been
adopted at a meeting beld at the Queen's Theatre, on
Wednesday evening last, and forwarded through the.
chairman, Mr. John Smith. The memorial was here
read at length. It set forth the anxiety felt by the sailors
to have a Sailor's Home, Registry-office, and Savings'
Bank speedily established, and the grievance under which
they laboured in having to pay, the masters 2s. and the
seamen Is. per month, to the Merchant Seamen's Fund
without being able to receive corresponding benefits.
They stated that the fund now amounted to £50,000 in
Liverpool alone, and that that sum was now lying idle ; and
they concluded by praying that the mal-administration of
the fund might be taken into serious consideration, and
that a committee might be appointed to watch over their
interest, generally.

Mr. Woo]) contended, that the shipmasters and sea-
men were much mistaken if they supposed that the trust
was improperly managed in Liverpool, inasmuch as the
seamen of the port were better off than they were else-
where, and as there were two or three times the pensions
given here which were given in any other town in Eng-
land. He believed that, to the administration of the fund,
the most strict and constant attendance was given, and
that, if a visit to the office were only paid, the most satis-
factory account could be rendered. Mr. Horsfall was the
President in Liverpool, and Mr. Sandbach the Vice-pre-
sident. The accounts were regularly published. The
orphan children of a shipmaster received 3s. a week, and
others were paid in proportion ; but, at the same time, it
was undoubtedly true, that the Act of Parliament pre-
scribed that no man could become a pensioner on the
funds unless he were twenty-one years on the books, and
that his family could not receive any benefit unless, he
happened to be killed, slain, or drowned.

Sir T. BRANCKER expressed his belief that the council
had_not any jurisdiction over the seamen.

Mr. AS1:11.:i A LL thought that, if there were a surplus of
£50,000 in Liverpool, it ought to be given to the poor
men.

Mr. HENRY HOLMES said that the interest Wag given,
and thit many widows were in the habit of receiving
£4O and £5O each, according to the number of their
children.

Mr. AIXIN believed that the prayer of the memorial
could not be granted, because the committee, even if they
were appointed, could not exercise any control over
the fund. He wished not to have the memorial mixed
up with the motion of which he had given notice.
Mr. BRAm LEY Moowe thought it would be as well to
suggest to the memorialists, that the Council was unable
to do anything for them, and that the most proper course
for them to pursue would be to apply to parliament. He
believed that there were many very serious objections to
the bill of which they complained, inasmuch as they were
compelled to contribute to the funds without. in several
instances, deriving any advantage. He understood that
the new act upon the subject was a great improvement
upon the old one, but that experience had shown, since
it came into operation in 1825, that although it worked
tolerably well, yet it pressed rather heavily upon the
sailors.

The MAYOR thought the subject very important, and
that, according to the memorial, there appeared to he great
abuses pervading the system. One, for instance, was,
that if a sailor died a natural death, his family could not
receive any relief unless the man himself should have
been twenty-one years on the books.
_ _

. _ ...,..--.
Mr. AIKIx inquired whether the Mayor had not, at a
previous meeting, presented a memorial to the Council,
signed by 9,000 seamen of the port, in favour of the
establishment of a Sailors' Home?

The MAYOR replied in the affirmative : it had been
signed by 9,402.
Mr. A IKIN said, it would be his duty, before he re-
deemed his promise on this very important subject, to
present another memorial to the Council, signed, he be-
lieved, by almost all the respectable mercantile men of
Liverpool ; indeed, he was strongly of opinion, that no
memorial had ever been presented to that, or any other
great body, which contained a greater number of respect-
abl‘. signatures.

The memorial was here opened by Mr. AMIN, and by
him and two or three other members conveyed to the
Mayor. The document was several yards in length, had
evidently been signed by some thousands, and owing to its
unwieldy dimensions, attractee, general attention, and also
caused much amusement.

The MAYOR read it at length. It stated, that several
meetings of the memorialists had been held in an interval
extending over the last four years, with the view of im-
proving the condition of sailors and securing to the ship-
owners a plan for the more efficient manning of their ships.
The result was that they conceived a Sailors' Home should
be provided, combined with Al Registry and Savings' Bank,
and that subscriptions had been obtained for this purpose
to the extent of 1:2.000, sufficient to show the interest
which had been excited, but not sufficient to carry out the
object in view. Various circumstances had combined to
impede the progress of that object ; but, recently, public
attention had once more been particularly called to it by
the complaints of the seamen themselves. In conclusion,
the memorialists prayed the council to take the subject
into serious consideration, and to grant a building for the
purposes of a Sailors' Home, Registry-office, and Savings'
Bank.

Mr. AIKEN then proceeded, at some length, to state the
reasons which had induced him to submit the motion, of
which he had given notice, and which had been previously
read by the Mayor. He commenced by expressing a hope,
founded on the memorial which had just been submitted,
and which was signed by so many of the wealthy and re-
spectable classes, that, at last, they would be enabled to
do something for a class of men for whom more might be
done than almost for any other, and yet for whom so little
had hitherto been attempted. He knew there was a feel-
ing afloat, and that it existed in the minds of some of his
most intimate friends, that the nature of the profession of
the sailor, added to his recklessness of conduct, rendered
it an almost hopeless task on their part to attempt to re-
deem him. From that proposition he dissented altogether.
He believed that sailors possessed feeling and desires si-
milar to those of every other class, and that if they saw
an attempt made to redeem them from the position to
which they were sunk, or to save them from the plunder
to which they were exposed, their habits might be im-
proved as well as the habits of any other class in society.
He then proceeded to state some of the wrongs and evils
to which the sailor was exposed, the causes which bad
produced those evils, and the most effectual remedies
which ought to be applied. He said it was matter of
daily occurrence that, the moment a vessel reached the
port of Liverpool, the sailor was besieged by a number of
persons who paid their court to him, made promises, took
him to a lodging-house, and, as his wages were due, gave
him credit. He treated them in return, and in the warmth of
his heart, perhaps spent mote money than prudence would
justify. This continued to go on for some time. Jack
was in Elysium, with his smiling lass and flowing jug.
But, after the lapse of a few days, when he received his
wages, he generally found accounts pouring in upon him
from the slopseller, the lodging-house keeper, and other
parties, greater than he expected, and then he began to
suspect those professions of regard which were showered
on him upon his arrival. Ile then sallied forth into the
street, met with a damsel who commisserated his position
and denounced the base conduct of the vile and selfish
creatures of whom he complained. He then went home
with her, but he (Mr. Aiken) would not detail to the
Council what passed there—(great laughter)—further
than to say, that the unfortunate fellow, when lie awoke
in the morning. oftentimes discovered that he was not
only penniless, but that, in fact, he was without a rag to
Cover him, his money as well es his clothes having bee:i
abstracted. Ile (Mr. Aikiii) knew an instanct, of a poor
sailor who had been left in this condition, and who, find-
ing that lie had not a remnant to put on, absolutely took
up the bed and bed-covering and sallied fort'► into the

street, thus making a capture of the only thin-gs--";;ith-in
Lis reach. (Continued laughter.) In ninety-nine eases
out of a bandied, however, such instances.9f.plunder never

'eve neard of, for the poor fellow himself, tieing stripped
°l' all he possessed, having no means of redress, and not
knowing where to apply for it, was obliged to fall back on
the
people who first received him ; and t
commiserated his fate, got him to mortgage

; our ou.igea go

world, be
world, no 'natter howwasdangerous the
voyage or fatal the climate, for the purpose of getting
clothes on his back. These were some of the evils to

which the sailor was exposed. hut there were a great -„,„„v
others, one of which was, that he was not only rub Nil
during his hfetime, but that he was robbed in tAcipa,i„o
'
of his death ; for the parties with whom ne thus dealt
either got him to make a will before he -„„t, or made one
for him in his a some ; and then, t:,fe moment his death
was announced, hadministered his
ffects, and robbed
him again. The evils of vf%;ich the shipowner and captain
hail to complain were very touch caused by the evils under
which the sailor I::imself. suffered ; for slack was not a
reasoning he felt that the world had plundered
him, and he sallied forth on the first opportunity for the
p rpose of -revenging himself by plundering the public.
Hence he; deiwrted a ship when he reached a foreign port
and could obtain a higher rate of wages, and in this man-
ner broke the agreement upon which he had originally set
out. But, another great evil was, that a captain never
knew, until he got to sea, whether he had got sailors
or lubbers on hoard ; and the misfortune was, that
the law afforded the captain no relief in such a case,
when be found himself in the middle of a dan-
gProus channel, without having, perhaps, a sufficient
number of hands on board to navigate the ship. (Hear.)
He (Mr. A.) had paid a great deal of attention to this
subject. in common with many others, and, without go-
ing to the length of saying that his remedy would enable
the sailors to jump from vice to virtue, he nevertheless
believed that the foundation could be laid for a gradual
improvement. (Hear, hear.) He concluded with the
motion of which he had given notice.
Mr. BRAMLET-MOORZ seconded the motion. He con-
tended that there was no class of men in England more
deserving of our sympathy than the merchant seamen ;
and that there was no other body to whom the nation
owed a deeper debt of gratitude, not excepting the navy,
notwithstanding the brilliant achievements of the latter
in every quarter of the globe. He dissented from those
who alleged that sailors could not he tamed. If they had
found a Van Amburgh to tame the lions, he believed that
if they succeeded in getting sailors into the prepared
building, they could not only tame, but reform them.
From the year 1835 to 1841 no fewer than 13,000 sailors

had been boarded and lodged in the London establish-
ment • while, in the course of one year, the large sum of
£23,000 had been paid into the same establishment. He
then referred to the manner in which Greenwich Hospital
had been supported for a number of years by the contri-
butions of merchant seamen, without any of them having
been ever known to he pensioned there ; after which he
alluded to the debt of gratitude which the town of Liver..
pool in particular owed to this deserving class of men.

He said that England had given the sum-of twenty
lions towards the emancipation of the negroes, and yet
that during the late fire at Kingston the blacks looked on
with apathy, and refused to render any assistance. This,
he obser-ved, was the gratitude which England had re-
ceived from these worthless beings, while, if the same
amount of money had been expended on the reclamation
of the British sailors, the latter would not only have been
thankful for the boon, but many of them would have been
saved from ruin here, and ushered into a happy eternity
hereafter. (Hear )
Mr. EVANS suggested to Mr. Aikin and those who
acted with him the propriety of prevailing on the ship-
owners, as they cleared their ships, to give a halfpenny a
ton towards the accomplishment of the object in view.
So far as he was himself interested in shipping he would
be willing to contribute in such a manner.
Mr. G. H. LAWRENCE assured the Council, that the
Finance Committee would willingly undertake the duty
which the motion, if carried, would impose upon them;
hut, still, he thought it would be too hard to ask the Cor-
poration to put its hand into its pocket and hear the ex-
pense of the proposed scheme. while memorialists, by pay-
ing the tax suggested by Mr. Evans, or by putting a sum
of ;£5 or .£lO opposite their respecti,e names, could ma-
terially assist the object in view, and render the institution
prosperous. (Hear.) Mr. Aikin had said that his proposal
would not render necessary any demand upon the borotrA
fund ; hut, if they were to give up the building, which
afforded a residence to Mr. Whitty, they would have to
find another residence, and to hear the contingent ex-
penses, which would involve an outlay of £lOO a year at
least. This, however, would he an expense which the
Corporation would not oppose if they saw the good Mr.
Aikin anticipated likely to he realiz.'d. He maintained,
that a great improvement had taken place amongst sailors
in late years, and that the establishment of shipping offices
had effected a great improvement when compared with the
system which had previously existed. He concluded by
expressing his willingness to forward the object in view.
Mr. BUSHELL could not exactly agree with Mr. Law-
rence. He thought the Corporation ought to become the
originators of such a scheme as the present, and that they
were hound to set the example to the town, and to give
funds in order to form a nucleus, around which others
might exhibit a disposition to carry out so desirable an ob-
ject.
Mr. PARxErt thought it might he necessary for a " little
mind" on rising, to make some apology, particularly when
he meant. to strip the discussion of some of the gaudy at-
tire in which it had been covered by preceding speakers.
He looked upon the sailors as highly respectable and wor-
thy of their situation. (A laugh ) There was no class he
felt more for. But the Council were assembled, not for
the purpose of upholding the interests of the sailors in par-
ticular, hut those of the community at large with which
they were connected. They had the poor porters at the
docks for instance, who did not earn ss. a week on an
average, while the sailor received his £2 a month, and got
plenty of employment and good food.

Mr. BLACKBURN lauded the exertions of the Seamen's
Friend Society, and referred to its advantages to the
maritime interest of the port, coupled as those advan-
tages hied been with the prevailing spread of temperance
and total abstinence among the sailors themselves. He
had been told that it was the intention of the parties who
sought for the institution in question to have a chaplain,
oerhaps a paid chaplain, but a chaplain at all events. He
quite agreed that religions instruction ought to he pro-
vided ; hut, then, the subject was surrounded with diffi-
culties, for who was the the chaplain to be?

Mr. BIRKETT: A clergyrnanof the Church of Enzland

Mr. BLACKBURN contended, that, lithe), only apoint-
ed one clergyman for one denomination, they ,vonld be
guilty of a violation of the plain and obvious meaning of
the Municipal Corporations Act, and the borough fund
should never be appropriated for anything of an exclusive
char4cter.

Mr. BIRKETT regretted that Mr. Blackburn had intro-
duced a subject which, as a matter of course, must create
contention. He believed that public worship was gener-
ally conducted on hoard vessels, at present, on the Sab-
bath day, although the revers^ was the case when he was a
boy ; and he thought that much more might be done for the
sailors if the shipowners took pains to ascertain the cha-
racters of the captains. He held it be for the general
advantage that the people should be instructed in the
doctrines of the Chnrch of England, believing, as he did,
that the Church of England taught the way of God in
truth; that every man who taught the principles of the
Establishment did his duty to the country and the town ;
and that those who taught dissent were, in proportion,
enemies to the country and the town.—(Laughter.) He
did not make this remark with any feeling of disrespect
towards Mr. Blackburn ; but he certainly thought, that,
when a man was brought up to the established religion,
he was sure not to be a Radical ; and they all knew, that
to be a Radical was to be a discontented, unhappy being.
—(Great Laughter.)
Mr. tionosoN thought, that, if the captains and mer-
chants had done their duty, the sailors would not have
been in their present lamentable position. He contended,
that, in the important matter of religious truth, the ma-
jority of the council should pursue one plan only, and that
they, in this Protestant country, could not unite in that
mixture, that olla Podridda, which some would have them
to support. Upon the religious side of the question he
should vote in favour of the principles of the Church of
England. He concluded by expressing his regret at their
having got into any personality on that occasion, the more
particularly as there did not appear to be any occasion
whatever for it.

Mr. AIKIN briefly replied, after which the motion was
unanimously agreed to.

PORTRAIT OF MR. RATHBONIL

The MAYOR announced, that the last subject on the
paper was a letter from Thomas Booth, Esq., proposing
that a portrait of William Rathbone, Esq., should he re-
ceived by the council for the council-chamber. He said
he should like to receive the instructions of the council as
to the reply he was to make to the letter, which had stood
over now for some time, and also as to the course that
was to be followed. (A pause.)
Mr. HORN BY, as the mover of the reception of the pic-
ture in the first instance, said he had no authority what-
ever to withdraw the offer, as it had not been made by
him, or any one in connexion with him. He should de-
cline to take any further part in the business, except to
state, that he had done all he could, but ineffectually, to
induce the parties to withdraw the offer. He thought the
council had better avoid discussion and proceed at once to
the vote.

Mr. AIKIN proceeded to remark on the general praise
bestowed upon Mr. Rathbone, by both parties as well as
by the tory press, for his impartiality and ability when
acting as chief magistrate of the town, and said that it was
in consequence of such public expressions of approbation
that a number of the members of the council were induced
to subscribe for his portrait, and to present it to the coun-
cilat the present time.

Mr. BLACKBURN suggested that they proceed at once
to the vote ; and moved that Mr. Booth's offer be accepted,
and that the painting be placed in the Council-chamber.
Mr. flonGsos objected to the Council being tongue-
tied by any member. There bad been a great deal of skill
in the mode of bringing the subject forward ; and if the
picture itself was not a work of art, the manner of offering
it was very arlful. (A laugh.) Divesting the proposition
of all attempts to deceive, it was impossible not to view
it as a party proceeding. They were called upon most
especially to consider the political character of Mr. Rath-
bone, and not his gentlemanly conduct whilst filling the
civic chair. He Lad been elected Mayor of the borough
solely because of his political opinions being in accordance
with those of the majority of that day ; and how could
the Conneil, constituted as it w,,s :4 present, receive
picture, when he bad himself tried constituencies out of
doors who would not have him ? The Council would be
quailing in the performance of their duty if they com-
mended Mr. Ratbbone in his public capacity. They were
a political body, and could never exist without acting in
and for a party. What evidence was there that (12:4.0pheral
party, when in the majority, would have accepted of the
portrait of one of their opponents ? On the contrary, had
they not filled all their offices with persons representing
their own political views? and had they not displaced Mr.
Case's picture in order to have Mr. Currie's in the best
light ? (A laugh.) He thought the discussion on this
6,_,bject would give increased strength to the tory party at

. - -
pie ensuing election ; and he concluded by moving, as an
niendicent, that the Mayor acknowledge the reception of
Ir. Booth's letter, and that tl

Mr. Part:s-r-tEr seconded Mr. Blackburn's motion.

the tory majority of the Council were excluded from the
