LIMERICK ASYLUM FOR. BLIND FEMALES, AND
CHURCH OF ENGLAND CHAPEL.
THE above named important and interesting object has
been brought before the religious public of Liverpool by
the Rev. E. N. Hoare, who visited this town with a view to
collect contributions in aid of its funds. The object in view is
the erection of a CHURCH of ENGLAND pIIAPEL, in a
parish which, containing 10,000 persons, is without a Parish
Church, (local circumstances rendering khe erection thereof
impracticablel; and, at the same tune, establishing an ASY-
LUM for BLIND FEMALES, an institution much needed in
Ireland, as will appear from the fact that for one vacancy, on
a recent occasion, in the only existing institution of the kind in
that country, there were not less than forty candidates.
For the accomplishment of this work, the Trustees (who are
five Clergymen of the Established Church, and the friends and
promoters of the object) can look only to voluntary contri-
butions. In this way the sum of £lBtX) has been raised in
Ireland, and £6OO in England. Among the contributors are
ninety-four Clergymen of the Established Church. A further
sum of £6`)o will be required to complete the buildings, which,
it is hoped, will be finished in August next.

TO THE EDITOR OF 7'RE LIVERPOOL STAND.IRD.

Stn,—Observiug in Admiral Carlos de Ponza's despatches,
detailing the engagement between the fleets of Donna Maria
and Don Miguel, an unjust reflection upon the services of the
steamers employed, I shall be obliged by your inserting the
following statement of facts :—The Birmingham and Britannia,
belonging to the City of Dublin Steam Packet Company, were
engaged for a specific purpose, namely, "to convey troops from
place to place, as Mr. Bell, the charterer, may require, having
due regard to the safety of the vessels." Had the respective com-
manders of them broke through their instructions, and com-
plied with the request of Mr. Bell, by towing the men-of-war
into action, it is more than probable that one or both would
have been seriously injured or destroyed; in either case, the
owners of them would not have recovered a single shilling.
With respect to the demand of £2,000 made by the engineers
as an inducement for them to tow the men-of-war into action,
the despatches carefully conceal the circumstance that gave
rise to it. After Mr. Bell (the agent on the part of Donna
Maria) having in vain endeavoured to induce Captains Beazley
and Say to disobey their orders, goes and tampers with the
engineers, and offered thpm £l,OOO if they would comply with
his wishes, when the engineer of the Birmingham jokingly said
if he would give them two it should be done, well knowing if he
had seriously attempted it, that Captain Beazley would instantly
have shot him as a mutineer. _

The William the Fourth I believe was differently circum-
stanced, having been engaged for all kinds of service, the
owners lying indemnified from damage or loss, so that if she
had been destroyed in the action, her owners would have been
liberally paid for her; notwithstanding which, I am justified in
asserting that the William the Fourth did not render any more
efficient services than the Birmingham and Britannia, and that
she *as as-far from the scene of action as they were.
I learn from Captain Beazley (who is now here) that the ser-
vices of the steamers were unremitted, almost constantly being
employed in towing some of the fleet or transports; and it ap-
pears to me a very ungrateful return by casting. unmerited re-
flections, such as are contained in the official despatches
alluded to.—l am, sir, your obedient servant,
SAMUEL PERRY,

Agent to the City of Dublin'Steam
Packet Company.
Water-street, 17th July, 1E33.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL ST4JVD.4RD.

Sin,—l was a little surprised on reading a letter in Gore's
paper of this morning, from Mr. PERRY, of the "City of Dub-
lin Steam Packet Company," to observe that that gentleman,
should, in justifying the conduct of the Captains and crews of
the Birmingham and Britannia steamers, in the late engage-
ment between the fleets of Don Pedro and Don Miguel, at-
tempt to deprive Captain Wilson, of the William IV., and his
brave crew, of the credit which they gallantly won on that
occasion.
As to the question of Insurance, I believe the William IV.
and the other steamers stand upon equal terms, therefore, the
responsibility of the parties in this respect would be the same.
The prompt manner in which the William IV. bore up to the
assistance of Admiral Napier, and the very. efficient service
performed by Captain Wilson and his crew, is fully confirmed
by the Admiral's official despatches, as well as by my own pri-
vate letters.
It is by no means my wish to cast any reflections on the be-
haviour of Captain Beazley and. Say, who may have acted very
prudently on the occasion; my sole object being simply to de-
fend the character of Captain Wilson and his crew, and I have
no hesitation in saying that the high terms of eulogy in which
they are spoken of by Admiral Napier are well-deserved.
" Palmam gut meruit ferat."
Yours, &c.
