TO THE INHABITANTS OF LIVERPOOL,
THE NOBILITY.

CLERGY, GENTRY, AND FAMILIES

THROUGHOUT THE
NORTH OF ENGLAND AND WALES.

WE have now been in operation Two Years, and the
result already achieved in so short a period proves,
more than anything else can do, the truth of our state-
ments. The enlarged and increasing patronage we have
received at both our Establishments enable us very ma-
terially to add to the advantages previously offered. Our
system, we repeat, is, first, to sell a good article, and,
secondly, to sell it cheap, FOR READY MONEY.
Mere cheapness alone, unless accompanied with quality,
is only deception, and our success mainly depended upon
keeping this point in view.
Within the last few weeks a limited portion of the new
Season's Teas have arrived both here and in London,
from which we have made selections, and, judging from
the present arrivals, the quality surpasses the average of
former years. Our advices from China intimate large
shipments of superior and useful qualities to arrive in the
English markets, which will become available within a
short period ; consequently, we are justified in anticipating
the means of supplying our supporters with quality quite
equal, if not superior, to any we have done since our
commencement.
Our present Prices range thus for sound qualities :

COTTON MARKET.-WEEKLY REPORT.

The demand for Cotton this week was gradually improving up
to the close of Wednesday, when prices of the I,wer qualities of
American, up to fair, had almost advanced id. per ih. upon what
could have been obtained on Friday. The steamer's accounts
(to the 29th ult.) received that tight, had the tendency to check
the then improving aspect of the market, and it opened yester-
day with comparative flatness, the demand subsiding, and the
prices becoming unsteady; what they had advanced was again
lost, and to-day those who are desirous to sell would be scarcely
able to obtain the rates current, for the qualities above noted,
this day week. Speculators have taken 7,500 bales of American,
and exporters 450 American and 50 Surat ; the trade, 18,800
bales of all kinds. The sales to-day are about 3,000 hales.

CORN LAWS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD.—
The subject of last Tuesday evening's discussion in the
Union Debating Society was—" Thlt a repeal of the
Corn Laws would be highly beneficial to society." After
an animated discussion, the motion was negatived by a
majority of 69 ; there being for it 9 ; against it, 78.
DENUNCIATION OF PROTESTANTISM.—A declaration
has recently been signed by six hundred of the clergy of
the church setting forth in the very words of the articles
and homilies the truths they would maintain. Of this
declaration the Church Remernbrancer for March, the
Tractarian organ, thus speaks :—" Protestantism in the
Clergy criminal and treasonable. Can those who have
signed it (the Protestant declaration), with any honour,
decency, and consistency, remain where they are ? And
yet more. Can our bishops pass ever, without censure,
an irregular and uncanonical declaration, which is not
exceeded in treason by the solemn league and covenant,
the millenery petition, or the conspriacy of Archdeacon
Blackburne ? If anything could make us despair of the
Church of our baptism, it would be that the signers of
this declaration should remain unrebuked by the bishops ;
and it is with unfeigned sorrow that we learn from the
prospectus of a society formed to encourage and dis-
seminate the principles embodied in this criminal docu-
ment, that six hundred of the clergy alone have signed it."
There, we defy the world to match this piece of Trac ta-
rtan impudence—it is matchless.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

RAILWAYS TO SCOTLAND.—The Liverpool and Man-
chester, Grand Junction, and Newcastle and Carlisle
Railways either have memorialized, or are about to me-
morialize, the Board of Trade for the purpose of having
an inspection of the different projected lines of railway
into Scotland. The object is to fix ou that line likely to
be most conducive to the general interests of the public.
At the meeting of the Glasgow and Greenock Railway
held last week, a dividend of ss. per share on the £25
shares, and a dividend of 2s. 6d. on the £l2 10s. shares,
were declared, the net profits divisible for the half-year,
after deducting expenses, &c., being £6,168. The number
of passengers carried on the line during the last six months
was 424,779. The directors are exercising much economy
to increase the revenue of the company, and the idea of an
extension of traffic by steam-boats appears to meet gene-
ral concurrence.

At the Manchester and Leeds meeting an increased
dividend of 31 per cent. for the half-year was declared on
the paid up capital of the £lOO and the £5O shares, the
dividend on the quarter shares remaining, as before,
at 5
per cent. The working of this railway is improving in a
very satisfactory manner, and the total income for the last
six months has reached £132,3-15. The revival of trade
is stated to have produced a desirable change in the traffic
returns, which have weekly showed an increase since the
last report, while the grow excess of receipts as compared
with the last half-year amounted to £13,231, of which
£11,533 had accrued from an increase in the carriage of
merch.4ndi.i.e.

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET. MARCH 15.
The holders of Wheat have been very firm in demanding la3t
week's prices, but the buyers were unwilling to increase their
stocks upon those terms, therefore not much business was done.
Barley met a slow sale. without any material alter.,tion in va-
lue. Oats and Shelling were dull. yet each fully supported for.
mer prices. Beans much the same as last week.

HARRINGTON DOCK COMPANY.

On Wednesday the annual general meeting of the mem-
tzhe clerk-
mem-
bers of the Harrington Dock Company was held at the
Clarendon-rooms. The chair was taken shortly after one
o'clock Eio.Mr. f the company, having
EOINIII, °
jboyHLN
NIVRT
read the advertisement convening the meeting, and a
statement of the accounts for the past year, proceeded to
read the report of the directors. It commenced by stating
that the general affairs of the company for the past year
had been increasingly successful and important, but that
the detail would have lost much of its Interest with the
proprietors, in consequence of the sale which had been
effected, of the bulk of the estate, to the Trustees of the
Liverpool Docks. It might, however, be well to mention
that the anticipation of last year of an increased income
from the property had been fully realised, the amount up
to the Ist of April next being .Z-1,351 6s. ; and it was
worthy of remark also that the portion of this amount
contributed by dock dues was no less a sum than £892
19s. 4d., being more than three times as much as had de-
rived in any previous year from that source. The expen-
diture during the year had been £B5B 13s. 3d. ; and there
was a balance in favour of the company of £3,772, appli-
cable to a dividend. With all the circumstances attend-
ing the long-pending negotiation with the Liverpool Dock
Trustees for the sale to them of the whole of the comps.
nv's estate on the west side of Sefton-street, containing
nearly 128,000 square yards, at the price of 31s. 6d. per
yard, the shareholders were made fully acquainted by the
special report of the directors on the 13th of December
last. There was much in the progress of that negotiation
of a painful character, the directors having been made the
object of a charge, through the public press, of urging the
purchase upon the Dock Committee on terms unfavoura-
ble to them and the public, by means of influence, sup-
posed to be exerted in one or both of the public bodies
with whom they were contracting. An imputation of this
nature, most discreditable, if true, but made without sha-
dow or pretence of truth, appeared to the directors neces-
sary to be contradicted ; and they, therefore, circulated
their report of the 13th of December, detailing most mi-
nutely every step which had been taken in the contract,

NOTICES.

A Word for the Church. By the Rev. E. G. Carr, 8.A.,
Minister of St. John's, Guernsey. Perris, Liverpool.

This little work is an answer to the Rev. C. Hargrove's
" Reasons for retiring from the Established Church, and
joining the Plymouth Brethren." The author does not
profess to enter into any formal defence of the general
reasons which may be advanced for attachment to the
Church of England, hut he certainly has presented an
irrefragable reply (which he alleges to be his object) to
the objections brought forward against the Establishment
by a seceder from her pale. This secession on the part
of Mr. Hargrove, Mr. Carr proves, even on the showing
of the former, to have been most unjustifiable ; and,
though we marvel that any one with ordinary intelligence
or scriptural perception could forsake the church of his
fathers for the reasons advanced by Mr. Hargrove, yet
those reasons have, in the good providence of God, only
afforded the grourdwork for this triumphant defence of
the Church's faith and discipline. The following remark
of Mr. Carr is entitled to much more weight than may
appear due to it on a first reading. We wish it were
candidly pondered over by some who so flippantly bandy
objections against the Church :
" Undue importance is attached to the alleged causes
of separation from the Church of England, and no svffi-
cient weight (perhaps I might say, no weight) attached to
the strong reasons for adhering to her communion : and
thus, in magnifying to the greatest possible degree mat-
ters of difference, and passing lightly over the advantages
of union, many have been led to adopt a course which, it
is to be feared, is more the result of bias or instability,
than of sound and sober views of scriptural truth."
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1844-03-19

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

An Enemy to Humbug" is unreasonable in requesting us to
ask the questions contained in his letter on anonymous au-
tLoity.

The letter of " Veritas" was received too late for publication
to-day, chief) because it was written en both sides of the
paper.
We are compelled to omit a notice of a pamphlet by William
Forsyth, Esq., which we had in type, and several other
articles. They shall ap ear in our next.
We have received another letter from Ebenezer Jones, Esq., in
_reply to Mr. Zephaniah Smith, which we reluctantly postpone
until our next publication, when we doubt not we shalt have
space to insert it, as we purpose giving a Supplement on that
day.
The Albion yesterday founds some witty remarks on a speech of
Mr. Nolan, at the Protestant Operative Association, on Mon.
day last, as given in our publication of the following day.
Our contemporary censures Mr. Nolan for lauding Mr.
M'Neile in his presence, whereas the latter ;gentleman had
retired prior to the commencement of Mr. Nolan's address,
and the point of the All ion's other remarks is altogether
occasioned by the necessarily abbreviated report of the
speech in our columns. Had the reverend gentleman's re.
marks been given entire, our contemporary's witticisms
would never have appeared.

COCOA.

COCOA is known to produce one of the most nutritious
and wholesome beverages that can be taken for
Breakfast. To procure it genuine, in its Manufactured
state, has become now almost impossible; consequently
we have been compelled to introduce the best COCOA
NUT, flaked ready for use, which we are selling at
Eight-pence per Pound.

COTTON MARKET.—March 18

exceed 2500 bales, generally at a decline of id 11. lb in the mid-
dle, and id lb in the better qualities of American, on the
prices paid last Wednesday.

COTTON MARKEL-WEEKLY REPORT.

The demand for Cotton this week was gradually improving up
to the close of Wednesday, when prices of the lower qualities of
American, up to fair, had almost advanced id. per ib. upon what
could have been obtained on Friday. The steamer's accounts
(to the 29th ult.) received that eight, had the tendency to check
the then improving aspect of the market, and it opened yester-
day with comparative flatness, the demand subsiding, and the
pi ices becoming unsteady; what they had advanced was again
lost, and to-day those who are desirous to sell would be scarcely
able to obtain the rates current, for the qualities above no ted,
this day week. Speculators have taken 7,500 bales of American,
and exporters 450 American and 50 Surat ; the trade, 18,800
bales of all kinds. The sales to-day are about 3,000 hales.

THE DURHAM WILL CAUSE.—This cause, the trial of
which we gave a succinct report in our last during the two
first days, terminated on Saturday week, when a ver-
dict was returned for the plaintiffs.
PARISH CLERKS.—At the Worcester Assizes last week
the case of the Queen v. the Rev. W. Smith was tried.
It involved the right of the defendant to remove his parish
clerk. The case has been often before the public. Harris,
the clerk, having been dismissed by Mr. Smith on the
ground of intemperance and general bad conduct, ob-
tained a rule nisi grounded upon 12 affidavits as to his so-
briety and good conduct ; the vicar answered these by al-
most 50 affidavits setting forth drunkenness, &c. The
rule was made absolute solely upon a technical ground. A
mandamus was ordered to issue. Before this could be
done, and the vicar be enabled to appeal against this de-
cision to the Exchequer Chamber by writ of error, it was
necessary in point of law that the merits of the case,
which formed the gist of the return to the mandamus,
should be disposed of by a trial. The result of this trial
is in favour of the Rev. NS . Smith.

Ball.

TO THE INHABITANTS OF LIVERPOOL,
THE NOBILITY,
CLERGY, GENTRY, AND FAMILIES

THROUGHOUT THE.
NORTH OF ENGLAND AND WALES.
WE have now been in operation Two Years, and the
result already achieved in so short a period proves,
more than anything else can do, the truth of our state-
ments. The enlarged and increasing patronage we have
received at both our Establishments enable us very ma-
terially to add to the advantages previously offered. Our
system,_ we repeat, is, first, to sell a good article, and,
secondly, to sell it cheap, FOR READY MONEY.

Mere cheapness alone,unless accompanied with quality,
is only deception, and our success mainly depended upon
keeping this point in view.

Within the last few weeks a limited portion of the new
Season's Teas have arrived both here and in London,
from which we have made selections, and, judging from
the present arrivals, the quality surpasses the average of
former years. Our advices from China intimate large
shipments of superior and useful qualities to arrive in the
English markets, which will become available within a
short period ' • consequently, we are justified in anticipating
the means of supplying our supporters with quality quite
equal, if not superior, to any we have done since our
commencement.
Our present Prices range thus for sound qualities :
