FOREIGN BRANDY DISTILLERY,

PALE or BROWN BRANDY, in any quantity not les,

at Hs. per Gallon, with a liberal allowance to the trade.

HISLOP WARNER and COMPANY, after a residence
of nearly twenty years in France, where they acquired the
whole process of Brandy Making, from the most eminent
Distillers of Cognac, Rochelle, and Montpelier, beg distinctly
to announce, that the article they offer to the Public bears no
resemblance whatever (except, perhaps, in colour) to any of
the British Brandies hitherto made in imitation of the
French.

H. WARNER and Co.'s BRANDY bears mixing wi
boiling water, and will stand every other test to which

reign Brandy may be subjected, being purer and better than
seven-tenths of the Brandy imported into this country,
while its flavour has deceived many of the best judges in the
foreign trade.

H. W. and Co. are fully sensible of the prejudice in fa-
vour of the Article imported direct from France, a feeling
which, however general, they could speedily remove, were
they permitted to divulge the principles which have cost
them so many years of arduous labour and expense, in a
foreign land, to acquire ; this, however. the Public cannot
expect from them, but they pledge themselves that their pro-
cess is, in all respects, the same as that which is adopted and
approved by the most eminent Distillers and Rectifiers on
the Continent, and that their Brandy wants age alone to
render it equal to any French Brandy, with the exception of
the real Cognac, which few only have been fortunate enough
to taste, and scarcely any to possess.
11. WARNER and Co. invite the Trade and the Public in
general to taste and test their Brandies, from their Store
Vats at the Distillery, and to judge for themselves.

KIRKDALE EPIPHANY SESSIONS

These sessions commenced yesterday,
before the Rev
Jonathan Brooks, (chairman,) and a full bench of magis
trates. The calendar is rather a heavy one, the flambee°
prisoners charged with felony being seventy-four, misde
meanors five. Of these, three only can read and write well
twenty-five can read and write imperfectly, nineteen car
read imperfectly, and thirty-two can neither read nor write.
After the court had been opened, with the usual formalities,
the following gentlemen were sworn on the
Samuel Bishop GRAND JURY:
, the younger, Sutton, (Foreman,)
James Pearson, Great Crosby„
Francis Dutton, Orrell,
Michael Hughes, Shirley Hall,
Thomas Robinson, Eccleston,
John Stick, Ashton-in-IVlackerfield,
Wm. Jameson, Ashton-in-Mackerfield,
Thomas Croft, Great Crosby,
John Houghton, Eccleston,
Thomas Ashton, Ormskirk,
John Aspin all, Ormskirk,
George Bromilow, Parr.
Robert Robinson, Parr,
Wm. Turner Kidd, Prescot,
Thomas Bell, Sutton,
Ellis Wignall, Southport,
Thomas Tunbridge, Southport,
John Salthouse, Southport,
James Mawdesley, Southport,
John Alfey, Southport,
Samuel Whiteley Southport.
James Williams, of Great Crosby, was excused, being
above age. He stated that he had given notice to that effect
to the overseers, two years ago, and the chairman called up-
on the assistant-overseer and reprimanded him for not pay-
ing attention to the notice. Henry Walker Lucas, share.
broker, claimed exception on the ground of non-qualification,
and was excused. Josias Christopher Gambel and Abel
Woodward, of Sutton, were both excused, being over age.
After the jury had been sworn,
The CHAIRMAN in addressing them, said he had looked
over the calendar, but he did not see any one case in which
they would see any difficulty. The cases where of such a
nature as were constantly coming before grand juries, and as
several gentlemen had before served on the jury, he did not
think it necessary to make any observation to them on the
calendar. Nothing either had occurred since they last met,
which required any remark from him. Parliament was not
sitting, and no new acts had been passed to which he could
call their attention. He would, therefore, dismiss them to
their duties.
On the calling over the petit jury, John Campbell, of Orms-
kirk, was excused, having served at the last April sessions.
James Scarisbrick, of Prescot, was excused in consequence
of ill health. Mr. Birchall, of Sutton, above age, was ex-
cused, as was also David Shaw, of Ashton-in-Mackerfield
who was in the country when his summons was served
Edward Davies, of Great Crosby, and John Atherton, o
Eccleston, who sent no excuse, were each fined £5 for non
attendance.
The trials were shortly afterwards proceeded with, bu

Cromwell intented to profit by it. I placed myself where I

placed in the situation left vacant by the death of Mr. Spen-
cer. I pledge myself for the entire faithfulness and zeal with
which he will discharge its duties. For myself, I only ask
that whatever may be thought of the services rendered "to the
flag of my country, which should be the first considered, my
own honour may also meet with , due consideration, I only
ask that I may not be deprived of my command until I am
found to be unworthy of it.

FRIENDS

I have for some years past longed for an opportunity of
giving to you sound practical information on a most important
subject, one upon a right understanding of which depends
much of toe happiness of yourselves and families. You will
find, I trust, such hints on the subjects I am about to lay
before you as will be of much service to you. Owing to the
deplorable waste of life amongst the labouring classes, go-
vernment has lately taken the matter in hand, and the report
of the commissioners employed has been of such a 'lshii e as
imperatively to call for direct legislation on the subject. if
this necessity for the interference of government has been
imperative as regards the country at large, it is more espe-
cially so as respects Liverpool ; and, for the information of
my operative
friends, I will furnish them with some extracts
from the Report of Air. Chadwick, secretary to the commis-
sioners ; and, in doing this, I would also urge the subject
upon the wealthier classes of society, for it will be seen by
reference to the subjoined tables that the same causes which
operate so injuriously upon the poor, operate also, although
in a modified degree, upon the rich. Let us now take the
average duration of life, in some town ; and be it remembered
that these tables are not formed by guess, or at random, but
from the register of deaths which occurred, and the actual
ages at which these deaths occurred amongst the various
classes of society ; but it would be well, perhaps, to explain
to you, my friends, how these averages are taken, as you
may perhaps say, " Oh, I know plenty of old people here in
Liverpool ; this must be untrue !" Now we will suppose the
deaths that occurred, in any place, for one week, to be ten,
and the ageS as follows :
Person.v. Al7O

10 160
So, the average age of the individuals whose deaths are thus
stated, would be 16. Again, supposing next week 12 were to
die, as follows :
Persons. Age.

Or, the 210
averagc age of deaths for that week would be 20.
Now supposing the average ages of weekly deaths, thus cal-
culated, were to be as follows :

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-FRIDAY.

Mr. EWART gave notice, that early next session he
would move for the abolition of the duty on foreign wool.
Mr. HUME gave notice, that on Tuesday next he would
move that the Attorney-General be directed to prosecute
the agents of Lord Duiwannon at the late Durham elec-
tion for bribery, and that similar steps should be taken
against those who had received the bribes.

-Lord STANLEY, in reply to a question from Mr.
EWART, said that there was no sum of money at the
disposal of the colony of New South Wales for the pur-
pose of promoting emigration under the system of bounty
orders, nor was it the intention to renew that system of
emigration.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said £150,000
had been voted as a loan to the sufferers by the late earth-
quake at Antigua and St. Kitt's, which money would be
paid over as soon as the necessary securities were per-
fected.

The Presbyterian Marriages (Ireland) Bill was brought
down from the House of Lords, and read a first time.
In reply to a question from Lord ASHLEY,
Sir R. PEEL said he very much regretted the postpone-
ment of the educational clauses of the Factories Bill, but
he should re-introduce an amended bill on the subject of
mills and factories early in the next session of parliament.
On the second reading of the Arches and Prerogative
Courts (Canterbury) Bill,
Dr. isitcuom, said he thought the bill unjust and op-
pressive. and he therefore moved that it should be read a
second time that day three months; and the bill, after a
short discussion, was negatived by a majority of 69 to 22.
The house then adjourned.

DESCRIPTION OF THE GREAT BRITAIN.

As is well remarked by our contemporary the Bristol
Mercury, who in a supplement furnishes a very minute
and accurate account of the launch" and the ship,
" It is not alone the extraordinary size of the Great Britain
that makes her so remarkable in the eyes of the naval ar-
chitect and the man of science. There are peculiarities
in her construction, and more particularly in her powers
of propulsion, which are destined to test the value of some
important theories in mechanics." She is (li of
our own iron ships) entirely built of iron, with the excep-
tion of the flooring of her decks, and some of her

HOUSE OF LORDS.-THURSDAY.

Lord LYNDHURST moved the first reading of a bill to
legalise Presbyterian marriages in Ireland.
The Marquis of DOWNSHIRE expressed his approba-
tion of the bill.

Lord CAMPBELL wished it to be understood that their
lordships had never declared these marriages to be invalid.
The bill, after a few words from Lord BROUGHAM, was
read a first time, and was ordered to he read a second time
next day.
Lord BROUGHAM postponed the further consideration
of the Slave Trade Suppression Bill.
The rep ores f
the committee on the Ecclesiastical Func-
tions Bill was brought up and agreed to.
The other bills on the table were forwarded a stage, and
their lordships adjourned.
