POETRY

WE SHALL BE HAPPY YET

BY THE LATE

MRS. JAMES GRAY

Fear not, beloved, though clouds may lour,
Whikt rainbow visions melt away,
Faith's holy star bath still a power
Tnat may the de.pest midnight sway.
Fear not ! I take a prophet's tone,
Our love can neither wane nor set;

My heart grows strong in trust—
We shall be happy yet !

.1111de Own

What though long anxious years have passed
Since this true heart was vowed to thine,
There comes for us a light at last
Whose beam upon our path shall shine.
Ye who have loved 'midst doubts and fears,
Yet neve- with one hour's regret,
There comes a joy to gild our tears—
We shall be happy yet.

Ay, by the wandering h rds, that find
A home beyond the mountain wave,
Though many a wave and storm combined

To bow them to an ocean grave—

By summer suns that brightly rise
Though erst in mournful tears they set
By all Love's hopeful prophecies,

t Embarking for

THEATRE-ReitYAL, WILLIAMSON-SQUARE.—We had
three splendidly-filled houses at this theatre on Thursday,
Friday, and last night; the attraction being the acting of
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Mathews. To-night, it will be
seen, the latter takes her benefit.

EVANS'S RESTORATIVE BALSAM.—By reference to
our first rage, it will be seen that Mi. Coupland. of
Parker-stseet, is now sole manufacturer of this excellent
article. Those who suffer from loss or insufficiency of
hair should try this restorative, as within our own obser-
vance we have known more than one case where its effects
were most efficacious.

TH EATR E-ROYAL, CHURCH-STREET. —The perfor-
mances continue to he of a varied and attractive character.
The benefit of Mr. Shuttleworth, the box keeper, whose
affability and anxiety to accommodate the public must by
this time be duly appreciated, is fixed for Thursday even-
ing. Mr. Holloway, whose acting as clown in the panto-
mime will be remembered, takes his benefit this evening.
DESTRUCTION OF VERMIN.—As the dwelling-houses
of Liverpool—as in most seaport towns—are nearly all in-
fested with cockroaches, and other vermin, it will be
gratifying to the occupants to learn that they may be re-
moved for a charge of threepence. Mr. Purnell, of Liver-
court, advertises in our paper to-day. a. preparation which
is strongly recommended by printed testimonials—and
which instantly destroys these aboAinuble nuisances.

DRUNKENNESS IN CORK.—There were 622 drunkards
committed to Bridewell by the constabulary, during the
month of January. The number committed in January,
1843 was 100 ; in January, 1844, 173; and in January,
1845, 315. _ _ _

COWARDLY ATTACK,—On Sunday week, a ferocious
attack was made by two men, on a lady named Bennett,
residing at Monaghill, Lower Ormond. When on her
way to church, the two ruffians walked up to the car on
which she was sitting, and one of them snapped a pistol
twice at her without effect, while the other struck her
a heavy blow with a " wattle." £lOO reward has been
offered for their apprehension.
AWFUL MURDER.—On Wednesday evening, as a man
named Madden, who was in the employment of Mr. Stoney,
of Portland, was going home from his daily labour, he was
shot by some assassin in a grove convenient to the en-
trance-gate to Mr. Stoney'a house, near Portumna. The
assassin, not satisfied with shooting his victim through the
body, literally dashed his brains out with a spade.—Bal-

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-TUESDAY

Sir IL FEEL said it was not the intention of the govern-
ment tc bring forward, this session, any measure for the
reformation of the ecclesiastical courts. The right hon.
baronet then entered into an explanation of the views of
the government on the timber duties. It was in contem-
plation ultimately to reduce the differential duties from
255. to 15s. ; but this was to be effected gradually,---Arst,
by reducing 51. of the duty on the sth of April, 1847, and
then by reducing another ss. on the sth of April, 1848.
Upon sawn timber he would propose to reduce the duty
by the amount of Es. on the sth of April, 1846. Upon
the smaller descriptions of timber, such as oars, spars,
&c., there would be a proportionate reduction ; but he
would reserve his opinion as to whether the reduction of
duty on this kind of timber should not be immediate.

In reply to a question from Mr. Moffat,
Sir R PEEL said, the sugar duties were annually voted,
and he would not propose anything relative to them until
the commercial measures which he already announced
were disposed of by the house.

Mr. M ILES wished to know if a rumour which prevailed
were true, that a noble lord and an hon. member, both of
whom had resigned their stats, had accepted office under
the crown.

Sir IL PEEL said it was true. They had accepted the
Chiltern Hundreds. (A Laugh.) . . .

A SUDDEN CONVERSION

Of all the gentlemen who have been recently " turning
their backs upon themselves," and perplexing their con-
stituents, commend us, says the Herald, to Mr. Henry
Charles Sturt, late member for Dorsetshire
Mr. Sturt is, we believe, a gentleman of the highest
and most unblemished character—a man universally es-
teemed in private life; but it is quite clear that, be, woe-
fully mistook his vocation when he ventured into public
life in stirring times like these.
ko recently as Dec. 20, 1845, Mr.. Start attended a
meeting of his constituents at Blandford ;• and, ss the
cahinet-couvulsions then going on drew every one's at-
tention to the subject, he naturally felt called upon to al-
lude very explicitly to the question of the corn-laws. It
was then well-known that Sir Robert Peel had re.asturned
office, with an intention of modifying the existing corn-
laws. Yet Mr. Stun was not backward in announcing
his own determination. He told his bearers, that "he
was prepared to stand by the " present protection to
agriculture." His hearers cheered him; but it now ap-
pears that this noble resolution was like the" We—we,—
tron' I run I" of the terrified duellist in Sheridan's comedy.
However, encouraged by their cheers, sturdy Mr. Sturt
went on to say, that—
___

" Whoever.b.rought forward a n-,easure for the repeal of
the corn•laws, he would oppose i! I"
Whereupon followed " tremendous and long-continued
cheering."

Such-was Mr. Sturt six weeks ago. But Sir Robert
Peel has wade his speech, parties begin to develore Ibvir

plans and intentions, and Mr. Stunt is naturally expected
to perform in February what he had promiEed in Decem-
ber.

Instead of which, what does he dJ? lie sits down and
writes a letter to his constituents, in which he eacs—

DR. PUSEY'S SERMON,

Dr. Pusey cannot have been insensible to the effects of
his own cherished but mischievous opinions, during the
last few months. He has seen those who acknowledge
themselves with pride and gratitude his disciples passing
through every stage of duplicity, until desertion from the
church has crowned their lamentable career of retrogres-
sion. We did expect that duty to the University and love
to the Church would, at the very earliest opportunity, have
urged the parent of this great calamity to express his sor-
row for the past, and to utter a word of warning for the
future ; to fling away, at least, those gloomy crudities and
that worse than useless mysticism with which he has ever
delighted to invest baleful error, and to captivate the
minds of the thoughtless and the weak. Nothing of the
kind has happened. In a tone of spiritual &fiance Dr.
Posey takes up the thread of his discourse at the point at
which he quitted it upon the occasion of his summary dis-
missal. The sermon which he preached on Sunday last,
so far from evincing a healthier state of thought and feel-
ing, may be read in connexion with that which obtained
for him the grave censure of the University, am' be re-
garded only as its fit and natural conclusion. It betrays
the same leaning towards doctrines repudiated by the
church of England,—it exhibits the same cloud and dark-
ness, and deals in the like subtle and abstruse enigmas.
Lowly as the s►yle may look, there is no mistaking the
animus that flows beneath it. Priestly self-satisfaction
and sufficiency creep to the very surface ; an unconquered
will pervades it. The text of the sermon already announces
the assumption of the old position, and proclaims the te-
nacity with which the holy warrior is prepared to fight for
sacerdotal rights.

" Whosoever sins ye remit, they are remitted to them ;
and whosoever sins ye retain, they are retained." It is in
illustrating these words that Dr. Pusey, in his first ser-
mon after readmission, remarks as follows :
" The greatness of the power thus intrusted to man might
well exceed our belief, and make us tremble to e ecute it. and
almost doubt as men had doubted whether we had it. But our
Lord premised his commission with these few brief words, con-
veying at once its extent, and the i ule and guidance of it As
my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.' "

The demand from the trade at the begining of the week was to
a fair amount, but the desire to realise was,so great as to cause in
many instances a further slight depression; since Tuesday, the
trade having purchased very largely, and speculators also operat-
ing to some ex ent, the downward tendency has been arrested,
the market closing firmly at the quotations of Friday last for
all descriptions. Speculators have 70.10, and Exporters 700 bales

MELANCHOLY Loss OF THE BARQUE BRNCOOLEN AND
THIRTEEN OF HER CREW.—The Bencoolen, Capt. Cari-
but, belonging to Mr. Ripley, of this port. was totally
lost on Saturday night, she having, during the heavy gale,
unfortunately run upon Taylor's Bank, near the Formby
Light-ship. Only eight of a crew of 21 were saved by,
taking to the boat. The other thirteen, including the cap.
tain, mates, and pilot, were drowned when the vessel went
to pieces, shortly after she struck. During the late strong
gales (we may state) several fine ships have been lost on
our outward coasts, including the Susannah Cumming,
on Mad Wharf, the Mary, on West Hoyle, and tne John
Horrocks, near Leasowe. The crews of these vessels were
gallantly saved by the life-boats. The Bencoolen sailed
from Callao on the 15th Oct. last, with a valuable cargo.
On Saturday morning last, at 8 o'clock, she passed Holy-
head, an-d at 10 took a pilot (Harding, of No. 3)—the wind
fresh from the W.N.W. At six in the evening (having
previously beet hove to) she crossed the Victoria Bar.
Half an hour after they had passed the Bell Buoy, the ves-
sel struck on Taylor's Bank. The pilot, aware of the
danger in so heavy a sea, ordered out the jolly-boat, and
into it went five seamen and three apprentices. The boat
twice nearly filled with water, and, the painter snapping,
she was borne far from the vessel. Her crew made seve-
ral anxious attempts to regain the ship, but without suc-
cess, and thinking those on board would take to the long-
boat, made towards Liverpool. They landed at half-past
nine at the Prince's Dock Basin in an exhausted condi-
tion. Two steamers and the Liverpool lifeboat were im-
mediately despatched to the wreck, but no signs of the ill-
fated vessel or the unfortunate individuals who had been
on board her were visible. At the time the jolly-boat was
lowered, the men were busy clearing the other boats, but
it is supposed the vessel broke up immediately after those
who were fortunate enough to reach Liverpool lost sight
of her, and that alron board were drowned. The pilot
was James Harding, of No. 7. It is supposed that, in
running up the Victoria Channel, he took the north-east
side of the Formby Light-ship, and, being to leeward. ran
on the bank. He was a steady, sober man, and much re•
spected by his brother pilots. We subjoin a list of the
parties who have lost their lives by this melancholy dis-
aster :—Capt. Claribut, Mr. Sands, chief mate, Mr.
Creasy, second mate, William Adamson, seaman. Robert
Wallace, seaman, George Speiser, seaman, M'Nieol,
seaman, Chas. Pugh, seaman, the carpenter, sailmaker,
cook, steward, and James Harding, pilot.

CORN EXCHANGE, JANUARY 7

Duties have advanced for the ensuing week, on Foreign Wheat
to lis, on Bar ey to 's, Beans to 6s 6d, Pease to 4S 6d per
quarter, Flour to Irs 21e1 per barrel ; they are a so a sted higher
on colonial Wheat and Flour, excepting those on Canadian,
which remain unvaried. We have to report a moderately lair
supply of most articles fresh up since Monday last, including
upwards of 9 00 barrels Flour from the States, Nova Scotia, &c.
During the interval from Tuesday last, the trade has has re-
mained tolerably steady as to prices, but has been devoid of any
particular animation, transact ons being en irely confined to the
imme fate wants of consumers.

Although the intentions of government on the future position
of the Corn-laws have been explicitly declared, our millers and
de lers, still unable to see their way clearly, continue to evince
extreme caution ; we have consequently to repeat an excessively
dull sale for every article of the trade this morning, and a
general tendency in prices to incline rather downwa ds. Re-
stricted wholly to a few limited parceli to needy buyers, Wheat
of all descriptions w re partially depressed in value Id an 2d per
7 lb. Irish Flour likewise was difficult to s 11, but not decidedly
cheaper, whilst Canadian receded 6d per ha, rel. Barley, with
scarcely the appearance of demand, was the turn lower. Malt
steady at late prices. Beans in slow request on the terms last
noted. Pease and Indian Corn, nearly w thout inquiry, and
rather easier to purchase. Oats, though not plentiful, were
little noticed, and offered at an abatement of id and Id per
bushel. Oatmeal moving very sparingly to consumers, declined
6d per 24 lbs. In bond no sales of Wheat were reported to-
day; and the only transaction apparent in Flour was confined
to a parcel of New Orleans sour, at 25s per barrel.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1846-02-10

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-MONDAY

In reply to a question from Mr. T. Duncombe, Mr. S.
HERBERT said it was intended to bring in a measure to
amend the existing militia acts, and under that bill the
militia might be called out for the purposes of training,
but it was not the intention to embody them. As to
whether they would be called out for other purposes, must
depend upon circumstances, but he hoped the public would
not inconvenience themselves by taking precautions until
they saw the measure in contemplation, for the govern-
ment expected to attain its object by a less onerous pro-
cess than that of the ballot.

In reply to a question from Mr. P. M. Stewart, the
CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, there was no in-
tention to alter the duties on colonial spirits, nor did the
government intend to relax the prohibitions against the
use of sugar and molasses in breweries.
The Drainage of Lands (Ireland) Bill gave rise to a
short discussion, but it was eventually read a second time.
Sir T. FREMANTLE obtained leave to bring in a bill to
encourage the fisheries in Ireland, by the erection of piers
and harbours on the coast.

---4.--____
HOUSE OF LORDS.-TUESDAY

The LORD CHANCELLOR laid upon the table a bill to
relieve her Maj 'sty's subjects from certain penalties which
now attached to the holding of certain religious opinions.
—Read a first time.

Lord CAMPBELL begged to ask his noble friend whe-
ther the bill pr, sented was in accordance with the last re-
port of the Criminal Law Commissioners ?
The LORD CHANCELLOR. said the bill did not coerespond
exactly with the bill of the commissioners, because be had
thought it better to divide their bill into two. The other
part of the bill related to the oath of allegiance, supre-
macy, and abjuration. It was a question of much import-
anee, and he thought required further consideration.
The bill was then read a first time.

MORTALITY

We extract the following particulars relative to the
mortality in this town and neighbourhood during the De-
cember quarter of 1845, from the tables published under
the authority of the Registrar-General :
DALE-STREET.—No pat ticular disease has been preva-
lent within my district this quarter. It appears that there
are 7 deaths less than in the preceding quarter ehding 31st
December, 1844.

ST. THOMAS.—The deaths this quarter are 33 less than
in the corresponding quarter of last year. Of the deaths
registered, 47 are from bronchitis, &c., 22 phthisis, 5 by.
drocephalus, 10 dropsy, 16 enteritis, &c., 37 /looping
cough, 6 typhus, 8 scarlatina, 9 small pox (only 1 of which
was vaccinated,) 3 pleuritic, and 3 measles.
MOUNT PLEASANT.—Deaths 376, being 36 above the
general average. Phthisis has been most prevalent. 26
coroner's inquests. There has also been great mortality
amongst children, 150 deaths having occu, red under six
years of age, principally from hooping cough, bronchitis,
and convulsions.
ISLINGTON.—My district continues healthy- Deaths
still decreasing.
ST. GEORGE'S.—Number of deaths rather above the
average, principally owing to measles ; hooping sough

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

Mr. Knowles, Queen's Counsel, well known on this
circuit, has been appointed Attorney-General of the
County Palatine of Lancaster, vacant by the promotion of
the Hon. J. S. Wortley to the office of Judge Advocate.
EXAMINATION OF ATTORNEYS.—It is rumoured in
the legal circles, that premiums and certificates for profi-
ciency at tle examination of articled clerks will be given,
and that many terms will not pass over before such dis-
tinctions are conferred. The premiums will consist of
small sums of money.—London paper.

"THE TIMES COMMISSIONER."—This gentleman,
whose writings in Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and other
places, are so well known, was called to the Bar on Satur-
day week, by the honourable society of the Middle Tem-
ple. Mr. Th, mas Campbell Foster is a native of Knares-
borough and was, for some time, on the staff of the Liver-
pool Standard.
REGISTRATION APPEAL. IMPORTANT DECISION.—
In the Court of Common Pleas, on Thursday, the Lord
Chief Justice delivered judgment in an appeal against the
revising barrister of the West Riding of York, who had
decided that parties joining together for the purpose of
purchasing tenements for the object of " multiplying
votes " had been in agreement with the statute. The ob-
jection had been taken by the appellant on the interpreta-
tion of the 3rd Win. IV., ch. 35. The court was of opin •
ion that the statute upon ‘shich the objection had been
taken did not apply to the case, for that statute extended
only to fraudulent conveyances, and not to conveyances
bona fide and real. This deci,ion sets at rest all doubt as
to the legality of the new county votes created under the
1 auspices of the Anti Corn-law League.
