ST. ANNE'S WARD.

AT a meeting of influential electors of St. Anne's Ward,
which took place at the Pontacks Inn, last night, Mr.
Hugh Molyneux in the chair, a vote of thanks was unani-
mously passed to Mr. Raymond Houghton, for his atten-
tion to the interests of the ward and the town generally,
during the past three years, and he was requested to
allow himself again to be put in nomination at the ensu-
ing election. Mr. Houghton thanked the meeting for
their resolution, and for the continuance of the confidence
reposed in him, and he at once placed himself in their
hands.
The canvassing books were immediately taken up by
the gentlemen present, and the utmost enthusiasm pre-
vailed.
In answer to a statement which had been very indus-
triously circulated in the ward by the Radical party, that
Mr. Houghton had not attended to his duties, it was
stated that Mr. Houghton, during his three years of office,
had only been absent from two Council meetings ; and on
one of those occasions he had been absent in London on a
deputation from the Pilot Committee, and that he had,
during the last year, attended ninety-two meetings of the
Watch Committee.

SECOND REPORT

—The supply of Wheat from Kent and
Essex small ; the whole met a free sale at an advance of Is.
on the prices of this day week. The high rates at which
Foreign was held, generally checked business, and sales re-
tail at an advance of is. to 2s. A good demand for Barley, at
Is. higher rates. Beaus and Peas bring fully last week's
prices. Oats, a slow sale, at about late rates. Barrel Flour
brings extreme prices—top price of Town-made raised 3s.

CORN

LIVERPOOL, OCT. 6.—We have about an average at-
tendance of millers and dealers at our market this morn-
ing, but the indifferent show of samples of either fine
wheat or choice fresh Flour operates much against the
transaction of any extended business; prime parcels of
the former are even a trifle dearer than on Tuesday, in
the moderate sales which have been effected, and the
latter fully supports, or rather exceeds that day's rates.
We have a steady demand for barley and beans at pre-
vious prices. A moderate inquiry exists for oats and oat-
meal, without any change of value. Of yellow Indian
corn there is not a perfect parcel remaining in offer, and
buyers have not been able to supply themselves : white
corn is not active to-day, and might be purchased on
terms a trifle easier than last day.

LIVERPOOL STANDARD

THE

ESTUARY OF THE

MERSI

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

Sm,—Among the observations which were made by Mr. 1
Joseph Brooks Yates, in his paper on the "Estuary of the
River Mersey," read in the section E (Geography and Ethno-
logy), he said, " With regard to a three-mile breakwater pro-
posed by Mr. George Rennie, he thought it impracticable, as
it would cost £12,000,000. Besides, there was no rocky foun-
dation there. Similar objections are stated to have been
made during the discussion which followed on a brief com-
munication made by me, by Mr. Yates, Admiral Grenfell, and
Mr. Webster," apparently upon the ground of the enormous
cost. How this mistake could have occurred, lamat a loss
to conjecture, as the probable cost represented by me in a
communication I made to some of the authorities at Liver-
pool was at the rate of £lOO,OOO per mile, or £300,000 for
three miles ; and on revising the first estimate, I cannot make
it exceed £350,000 for the whole breakwater. lam not pre-
pared at present to enter into either the merits or the details
of such a work; but agreeing generally with the observations
of Mr. Yates, that Liverpool harbour is rapidly deteriorating,
and that unless something be done soon to bring these defects
more prominently before the public, the remedy will be too
late; I rejoice, therefore, to learn that a committee of the
British Association, with the Earl of Harrowby as chairman,
aided by Sir Roderick Murchison and others, has been
appointed to examine a question of such vital importance.—
I am, Sir, your obedient servant, GEORGE RENNIE.

DURABILITY 01? GU TT A PERCHA
T U B I N G.—Many inquiries having been made as to
the durability of Gutta Percha Tubing, the GUTTA PERCHA
COMPANY have much pleasure in giving publicity to the
following letters from parties who have had it in use for a
considerable length of time :
From Sir RAYMOND JARVIS, Knt., Ventnor, Isle of Wight.
(Second Testimonial.)—" In reply to your letter received this
morning, respecting the Gutta Percha Tubing for pump ser-
vice, I can state, with much satisfaction, it answers perfectly.
Many builders and other persons have lately examined it,
and there is not the least apparent difference since the first
laying down, now several years • and I am informed that it is
to be adopted generally in the Louses that are being erected
here."

From C. HACKER, Esq., Surveyor to his Grace the Duke of
Bedford, Woburn Park. (Second Testimonial.)—" Office of
Works, Woburn Park.—Gentlemen,—In answer to your
inquiries respecting the Gutta Percha Tubing for pump sac.
tions, I find that the water has not affected it in the leatl,
although it will eat through lead in two years; we have
adopted it largely, being cheaper than lead, much easier fixed
and a more perfect job.,,

dv mad

a of my

she had given me, inquiring about its contents. She always
spoke to me in English, evincing a desire to acquire that
facility of expression which only practice can give ; and
on her making a slight and very natural error, his impe-
rial highness corrected her, as he is perfectly acquainted
with the language, which, he informed me, was taught to
him and the imperial family by Dr. Law, respecting whose
health he made some inquiries, and expressed a great es-
teem for that gentleman. It was now late (past eleven),
and her imperial highness doubtless thought it time for
our interview to close. She went round and said some-
thing to the grand duke, on which he used the word
stoppi, which, as I have explained, signifies ' proceed,'
that is, ' Let ns alone.' Her imperial highness then left
us. I observed now that she was in a different costume ;
she wore a large. Leghorn straw hat, a rich crimson velvet
boddice, fitting quite close, and a white skirt. Soon after
her departure, the grand duke rose, and, shaking hands,
dismissed me, saying he was afraid I must be fatigued."
On the following day he had an interview with the Em-
peror himself :—" The Emperor was standing in the mid-
dle of the room, dressed in the plain dark blue uniform of
a General-in-Chief, and wore a white enamelled cross at
the button-hole on his chest. This, I believe, was the
cross of the Order of St. George, an honour conferred only
upon persons who have rendered important services to
their country. I imagine that his Imperial Arfkjesty has
not yet assumed the decoration of the highest class of the
Order, which is worn by such men as Paskewitch, Woron-
zoff, &c., and which was described to me as different in

size to that worn by the Emperor. I expected to see a fine
tall man, but was not prepared to find his Imperial Ma-
jesty so much superior to the generality of men in height
I appearance. He certainly did not look more than 50,
were there any particular signs of care on his cop.lte:
