TO CORRESPONDENTS,

A MEMBER OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE may be very just in
his strictures on Mr. Bigham's opposition to the grant
for a Chaplain at the North End, but his pointed
allusions to the correspondence which appeared in the
Mercury some years since may be considered to bear
a threatening appearance.
J. G. complains of the desecration of the Lord's Day by the
disgraceful scenes in Scotland-road from numerous
carts and other vehicles driven to and from the race-
course. He says the police seemed to wink at such pro-
ceedings, though they would have been much better em-
ployed'in suppressing the nuisance than in interfering
with the National School Children on their anniversary.
Viucusrrius' 3rd letter is in type, but want of space com-
pels its insertion to be deferred till next week.

T'EIE WAR WITH RUSSIA.

Taa active interference of Austria in thevitrrel
with Russia, by the march of immense bodies of
troops into the Danubian provinces, is a feature :In
the contest presented tows under a twofold aspect,
according as we regard the Austrian Emperor to
be sincere or not in his professions. If we may
believe him to be realty; desirous of co-operating
with the Western Powers to the full extent of the
object which they have in view, in restraining the
aggressions of Russia, and obtaining an effectual
guarantee for the future peace of Europe, his
assistance on the banks of the Danube is not only
most opportune, but of very great importance,
from the facility afforded by the proximity of the
Austrian frontier, and the great military resources
of the Austrian empire. It was long after England
and France had commenced to despatch their mili-
tary contingents, that Austria decided upon active
operations, and already her forces are on the scene
of contest, while not an English or French soldier
has yet seen the face of a Russian enemy, owing
to the long distance to be traversed. It appears,
by the treaty between Austria and Turkey, that
the former power is to take military occupation of
Moldavia and Wallachia, and by this means to
relieve the Turkish troops from an arduous duty,
and thereby render them available for other opera-
tions that may be determined upon. It has, how-
ever, been surmised that Austria in this affair may
be but covertly playing the game of Russia, and,
under the guise of assistance to Turkey, affording
protection to the Russian frontier a;
allied forces, who might be inclined to push their
conquests beyond thg Pruth. This' suspicion of

DIOCESE OF CHESTER.

COMISCRATIOR.—ST. MAST'S, GBASEIENDALE,—The
new church of St. Mary, Grassendale, in the parish of
Childwall, and county of Lancaster, was consecrated by
the Bishop of Chester on Tuesday last, being the ninth
church consecrated by his Lordship since the commence.
ment of March last. The building is a handsome and
commodious structure, erected from the designs of Mr.
Arthur Holme, of Liverpool, and contains sittings for 777
persons, of which one-third are free, or let at very low
rents. The church has an endowment for the minister,
in addition to the pew rents, and it has been erected and
endowed entirely by voluntary subscriptions. The pa-
tronage has been vested in Trustees, by agreement under
8 and 9 Victoria, cap. 70.

PREFERMENTS.—The Rev. William Blake has been
licensed to the Stipendiary Curacy of St. George's Church,
Liverpool, on the nomination of the Rev. J. B. Monk, the
Incumbent.--The Rev. James Adair McAllister has been
licensed to the Stipendiary Curacy of St. Simon's Church,
Liverpool, on the nomination of the Rev. J. R. Conor, the
Incumbent. —The Rev. Edmund Edward Allen has been
presented to the Vicarage of Milloms, Cumberland, void
by the death of the Rev. J. Pickthall, by the Queen, pa-
tron in right of her Duchy of Lancaster.

THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, AND GENVRAL C(

interest did it excite, that the House was counted
out. On Wednesday, the whole sitting was occu-
pied with an adjourned debate on the motion of
Mr. SHEE, for leave to introduce a Bill to appro-
priate the temporalities of the Church of Ireland
to secular purposes ; and, though every speaker
opposed the scheme from different motives, the
debate was again adjourned. It was merely useful

as showing how little a Romanist is bound by the
most solemn oath : the mover having sworn to do
nothing to injure the Church, and yet proposing
to rob it of its means of usefulness; while another
Romanist member opposed the Bill, simply be-
cause he considered nothing less than the destruc-
tion'of the Irish Church could be a satisfactory
settlement of the question. On Thursday, a morn-
ing sitting was occupied in defeating the sacri-
legious Church Building Act; and: the evening
sitting was prolonged by the sledge-hammer elo-
quence of the Quaker member for Manchester,
vainly endeavouring to defeat the annual grant
called the Regium Donum. The rest of the time
has passed in asking and answering idle questions;
and the war, with which Ntliament has had in
reality little to do, is mac the excuse for this
playing at- legislation, rt is time that the country
seriously set itself to the task of applying
remedy ; but the task *ill be hopeless, so long as
Liberalism is allowed to influence the electors,
and, through them) to retain incapable Minieters

RUSSIA,

At Samara, on the Volga, a fire has destroyed 70 stone-

The Kreuz Zeitung coolly announces that a house has
been taken at Kissingen, near the Rhine, for the present
bathing season, for the Emperor of Russia, who will drink
the waters there for some weeks.

The St. Petersburg Journal, of the 30th June, con-
tains the following notice of the chief of police, published
by the Emperor's orders, with a view to calm the minds
of the people The enemy's fleet, amounting to 30 sail,

enemy has shown no disposition to attack Cronstadt,
where every measure has been taken to receive them."
It is stated on the authority of some late English resi-
dents in St. Petersburgh, that the Emperor has in the last
five months grown older than in the preceeding ten years,
and wears an expression of haggard care both in his coun-
tenance and bearing. The heir to the throne, Alexander,
is in a rapid decline, and is at 'night afflicted with such
heavy sweatings that his bedlinen has frequently to be
changed twice the same night. As he is known to be
averse to the present war, even to such an extent as to
have prayed his father on his knees to desist, plenty of
Russians are found who hint darkly at the singularity of
his being attacked with symptoms dissimilar from any
that his family have ever suffered from just at the very
time when his known sentiments are at variance with
those of his family and the people. Delicate allusions to
some antecedents in Russian history suffice to make the
hint intelligible even "to the meanest capacity."

conceded by the authorities ; but subsequently the inquest
was abandoned, and here the awkward nature of the

was asserted, had been tampered with, and in considera-

THE WAR RUSSIA,

Tea active interferencetcf Austria in the quemi
with Uussia, by the march of immense bodies of
troops Into the Danubian proyinces, is a feature in
the contest presented to us under a twofold aspect,
according As we regard the
,Austrian Emperor to
be sincere ar not in his profesgOons. If we may
believe be really desirous .of co-operating
witch the himheWetn Powers to the fa extent of the
object which they have in view, in restraining the
aggressions of Russia, and obtaining an effectual
guarantee for the future peace of Europe, his
assistance on the banka of the Danube is not only
most opportune, but of very great importance,
from the facility afforded by the proximity of the
Austrian frontier, and the great military resources
of the Austrian empire. It was long after England
and France had commenced to despatch their mili-
tary contingents, that Austria decided upon active
operations, and already her forces are on the scene
of contest, while not an English or French soldier
has yet seen the face of a Russian enemy, owing
to the long distance to be traversed. It appears,
by the treaty between Austria and Turkey, that
the former power is to take military occupation of
Moldavia and Wallachia, and by this means to
relieve the Turkish troops from an arduous duty,
and thereby render them available for other opera-
tions that may be determined upon. It has, how-
ever, been surmised that Austria in this affair may
be but covertly playing the game
of Russia, and,
under the guise of assistance to Turkey, affording
protection to the Russian frontier a_
allied forces, who might be inclined to push tl

gain st the

conquests beyopcl the Pruth. This suspicion 0

A.t present there are on the berths twenty-

nine vessels loading for Australia, having an aggregate
burtheu of 27,824 tons, or an average little short of that
already referred to. Of these, nineteen are for Melbourne,
with an aggregate of 20,629 tons, or nearly 1,100 tons
each. Besides the splendid fleet already engaged in the
Australian trade, several other ships of the most approved
models as regards sailing qualities, stowage, and passen-
ger accommodation, are in course of being built with the
utmost despatch consistent with safety and good con-

struction, by the most celebrated builders in the United
States, and in our North American possessions, all of
which will be put into the regular line of Liverpool and
Australian trade so soon as they can be got ready
In the above brief glimpse at our traffic, it will be seen
that one branch of outward trade only has been glanced
at, although we are happy to learn that all the branches
of that, with perhaps a trivial falling-off in exports to the
north of Europe, are prosperous ; and it is further to be
borne in mind, that no allusion whatever is contained in
it relative to our immense coasting and channel trade ;
nor does it include the regular steam communication be-
tween Liverpool and the various North and South
American ports, or with the Mediterranean; in every
one of which valuable lines of intercourse our facilities of
communication are increasing every day.
Even so very loose and general a view as that given
above presents a highly gratifying picture of our exist-
ing commercial relations, and, when compared with that
of a few years back, the contemplation becomes doubly
pleasing, showing a steady and sustained growth as
regards the past, and affords grounds for highly flattering
anticipations of the future.

THE WAR.

(Fro-lathe Second Edition of the Morning Chronicle.)
VIENNA, SUNDAY.—It was only yesterday that the
Emperor received Prince Gortschakoff. The audience was
short and cold. Prince Gortsehakoff brought no definite
answer, but unacceptable propositions. The Czar's defini-
tive reply is expected in four days. Prince Gortschakoff
awaits it here. Decisive despatches were sent to St..
Petersburgh last night.

BUCHADESii, JULY 4nr.—Despatches confirm the dis-
grace of Prinee Paskiewitsch.
The Russians reoccupy Wallachia.

THE BALTIC.

Sir Charles Napier was off Cronstadt, awaiting. orders
from England.
The object of the• French expeditionary force is said to
be the occupation of the-island of Aland.
The damage done at Bomarsund is not known, but
there is- no doubt it was' severe, owing to the precision of
the firing from the steamers.
The Times' correspondent at Cronstadt writes on the
30th of June, that an inspection. by some of the' principal.
officers of the combined. fleets of the northern channel
had taken place; and the• correspondent believes that the
greater part of the ships may steam up the northern
side of the island, and, take up, a position in which they
might,. at long range., throw shells into the town, and
destroy- it, without sustaining any injury to themselves.
Some' accounts state that three infernal machines had.
been discovered under the. water at Cronstadt, but the
truth of this is denied in other letters. The enemy's
coasting. trade on both sides of the Gulf of Finland is.
completely stopped. _ _ _
