The Watch Committee for the borough of Liverpool in

unnecessary to do more than direct their attention to the

gratified in being able to state that the conduct of the

growth of better habits, superinduced by constant and
careful attention, as appears from the following returns,

Beef and Mutton, it caused a dull sale in the early part of the

ble change. A few Sheep unsold.

SlR,—Having had our attention drown to your state-
ment in this day's paper, respecting one of Messrs. Mil-
ner'sPatent Safety Boxes, we beg to say, in explanation,
that it was not one of Messrs. Milner's present Patent
Safety Fire-proof Cash Boxes, but one of an old construc-
tion,* of their make, but bought by us eight or nine years
ago, and totally different to those now made by them. We
have examined a Patent Box of theirs, bearing the date of
1840, since bought by us, and find it to contain the non-
conducting principle described in their new patent.*
We are, Sir, yours, respectfully,

preventing their rapid combustion (by flame) and keeping
them portable, as appeared by its being entire, and a com-
mon cash box beside it (not of Milner's manufacture)
having fallen to pieces. Mr. Milner took the old box in
pieces in the presence of Messrs. Nelson, Knowles, and
Co., James Brown, Esq., Cannon-street, and other gen-
tlemen, showing its construction, and that it had answered
the end expected from it,—as an oil lamp was a very good
light, the best of its kind, until, in the advance of expe-
rience, gas was invented. Finding one of their new Pa-
tent Fire-resisting Boxes in use upon the desk of Messrs.
Knowles and Co., bought by them since the fire, off one
of Milner's agents, Mr. Milner called attention to the
difference—the date 1840. that of their patent, upon the
patent-plate over the lock—and forced open the chamber
of their new box, in which the arrangement of noncon-
ductor and vapourising tubes were found, as described in
theiricirculars andhpecification.

DURHAM ASSIZES.-THURSDAY.

TOPHAM AND WIFE V. M.GREGOR AND WIFE.

Mr. Knowles, Mr. Wortley, and Mr. Addison, ap-
peared for the plaintiffs; and Mr. Fitzroy Kelly, Mr.
Packley, and Mr. Crompton for the defendants.
This was what is called a " great will cause," issuing by
writ out of the Court of Chancery, to try the fact whether
the will of the late Richard Wrightson, Esq., of Cocker-
ton, in the county of Durham, made on the 29th Decem-
ber, 1839, was, or was not, a valid and legal instrument.
The will was drawn out by Mr. Francis Mewburu, of
Darlington, solicitor, who was the legal adviser of the
testator. He was under examination for nearly six hours ;
and his account of the transaction was, in substance, that
having gone to Cockerton to examine a large number of
deeds and papers, which bad come to the hands of the
testator, as executor, residuary devisee, and residuary
legatee, under the will of the late Mrs. Garth, of Cock-
erton, who died on the Ist of December in the same year,
the testator, after the investigation was concluded, ex-
pressed a wish to make his own will. Mr. Mewburn re-
commended the testator to call at his office, and have the
will made in a careful form ; believing that as Mr.
Wrightson had lately come into the possession of a large
property, the document would contain numerous limita-
tions, &c. The testator, however, at once said, that
he intended to leave everything to his wife; and
Mt. Mewburn finally agreed to make out a short will to
that effect, which, he said, was signed by Mr. Wrightson,
in the presence of Mrs. Wrightson, himself, and George
Hind, the steward, and Jane Finney, (who subsequently
became Mrs. Hind,) a servant in the house, (both of
whom were in the service of Mrs. Garth, and received,
under her will, legacies of £lOOO each.) Its validity is
disputed in this issue; and, likewise, the competency of
the testator to make it. Mr. Mewburn proved the mak-
ing of the will as above; declaring, on his oath, that every
thing was done in a legal and regular form. Twelve other
witnesses were examined to shew that the testator was
quite capable of transacting ordinary business before,
about, and after the will was made; and it was further
proved, by the production of numerous letters, that the
defendant was not only corresponding at and near this
time, with several parties on matter's of business, but that
the defendants themselves (of whom the wife is sister to
the testator) were in pretty frequent communciation with
him on certain legal proceedings in Scotland interesting
to all the parties. The proceedings were then adjourned
till the following day, the case for the plaintiffs being
then unclosed.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

SlR,—Passing along Paradise-street this morning I was
struck with the appearance of a large placard, requesting
the passers by to sign a memorial against monopoly, and
stating that sugar could be bought at 2d. per lb.
A table, attended by a seedy-looking patriot, contained
some sheets of paper, to which this philanthrophist was
calling upon all the men and boys who passed along to
affix their names. After wondering for a moment whether
this specimen of humanity was one of those who starve
their families by neglecting their business to mind public
affairs, or whether he was then looking thin upon the
wages of his liberal anti-league friends, I turned away
disgusted with the cant of the tool and at the impudence
of his employers. I was glad to see-the honest and in-
dustrious artisans who passed along and smiled contempt
upon the trick, placed to entrap them to sustain the falling
cause of the child-famishing man-starving millocracy.
I saw the same gag in operation at two other places
during the day, so I should think, with the aid of all the
little boys, they will get 90,000 signatures, because such
will sign at each board, for the fun of the thing.
I am, sir, yours, &c.,

LONDON WINE SHADES,
CASES-STREET, CLAYTOA-SQUARE.
RESIDENT Gentlemen and Visitors to Liverpool are
respectfully informed, that the above new and ele-
gant Establishment IS NOW OPEN for their recep-
tion.

UNDER THE MANAGEMENT OF
MR. SIMON WOODS,
For many Years Superintendent of the celebrated

WOODING'S SP ODES, LONDON-BRIDGE.
The design and appointments of this Establishment
being totally novel in Liverpool, it may be necessary to
explain that it is arranged on the plan of the most cele-
brated London Shades ; is intended for the accommoda-
tion of a select society only, and to supply its Patrons
with first-rate Wines and their epicurean accompaniments
at extremely moderate charges. In the high and rare
character of its Stock, and in the luxury of its appoint-
ment, this Establishment addresses itself exclusively to
refined taste, and, it is hoped, will be favoured with a
liberal high class patronage.
Though scarcely in accordance with the spirit of this
advertisement, it may be well to quote, partially, the
charges of the Establishment, in order to justify the em-
phatic assertion as to their extreme moderation.

insisted upon.

CORRESPONDEN CE.

AFRICAN GUANO.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
Sir,—For some time past, a report has been current in
Liverpool (no doubt originating from parties who have
sent ships to the western coast of Africa) that the Portu-
guese government had sent a force to that part of the
coast whence the Guano is derived, to prevent its being
taken away. We, sir, were the first, in conjunction with
Mr. James Rae, to send a vessel for that article to the
western coast of Africa, the " Ann, of Bristol," Captain
Farr, (which vessel arrived at Dumfries with a cargo of
Guano,) and have orginated so great a stimulant to Bri-
tish commerce and industry. As such report is calculated
to create great anxiety to persons embarked, we beg to
say that we applied to Lord Aberdeen on the subject, and
that his lordship has kindly condescended to inform us
no power has any controul over that part of the coast.
Trusting the importance of the subject will be sufficient
apology for trespassing on your valuable columns,
We are, Sir,
Yours respectfully,
