TO THE EDITOR OF THE DAILY TIME 3

SLR,—Observing that the advertisement of the new
Highland Company which appears in your paper of
to-day commences as follows,—

"The uniform of this company, which excited so
much admiration at Knowsley,"
Permit me to state that the only kilted corps present at
the recent review was the 71st Highland L.R.V., and
that the general commendations of the press and public
were bestowed on them, and on them only.
I would recommend the promoters of this new com-
pany to adhere to the truth in their future advertise-
ments, which, if they wished, they could easily word so
that two separate companies should not be confounded
together.—l am, sir, your obedient servant,
A MF.MHER OF THE 71ST HIGHLAND L.R.V.

MEETING OF SUNDAY-SCHOOL TEACHERS Last
evening, in Hope Hall, a meeting of superintendents
and teachers of Sunday Schools was held; Mr. T. D.
Fletcher presiding. Tea was laid upon the table at
half-past six o'clock, when there were present about a
hundred and fifty ladies and gentlemen.
o
After tea, an
interesting paper on " The Training of Sunday..Schol
Teachers" was read by Mr. Edward Jones, superinten-
dent of Park-place School. A conversation on the same

subject ensued. It was announced that the celebrated

will be "The Prophecies of the Bible, as applicable to
the Destiny of Great Britain." He delivered this lecture
on Sunday week at the Church of the Oratoire in Paris,
and produced -a great sensation.
LECTURES ON PHRENOLOGY AND PHYSIOLOGY
,
delMive;
Fowlet, the popular lecturer on phrenology will
,
the first of two lectures, for the benefit of the Royal
Infirmary, in the Concert-hall, Lord Nelson-street, this
evening. The lecture will include an explanation of the
laws of life on physiological principles ; the temperaments
—vital, motive, and mental; how to correct tendencies
to excess, and to acquire that harmony of body and mind
which conduce to life. Mr. Fowler has net been a very
long time amongst us; but, during the short time he
has.been in this town, he has established a reputation
and achieved; a popularity which will doubtless be last-
ing.. But it is not from the ability of the lecturer alone
that we shall expect a large attendance; in addition to
that, there is the truly noble purpose to which the pro-
fits are to be applied, and from two such great attrac-
tions we cannot be far wrong in predicting a crowded

Louse.

THE LICENSED VICTUALLERS' ASSOCIATION.—The
monthly meeting of the executive committee of this
association was held at the board-room, at the asylum.
Mr. M. Warriner presided, and the other members
present were—Messrs. John Allinson, W. Coward, T.
Jones, T. Calderbank, D. Crilly, H. Hornby, J. Thorn-
ton, R. Lumb, H. Curwen, W. Crane, C; 144'..,.u1ter, and
J. Atkinson. The first business was the election of a
chairman for the ensuing year. On the motion of Mr.
Coward, seconded by Mr. Calderbank, Mr. Thomas
Jones was unanimously elected. Mr. Curwen proposed
a vote of thanks to the late chairman, whose services he
highly eulogised. The motion was seconded by Mr.
Crane, and carried ; on which Mr. Warriuer returned
thanks. Mr. Jones, on taking the chair, briefly acknow-
ledged the compliment which had been paid to him
and the board then proceeded to the election of a vice-
chairman. On the motion of Mr. Crane, seconded by Mr.
Warriner, Mr. Henry Lumb was. elcted. The various
sub-committees for the ensuing year were then appointed.
It was announced that the nett profit of the pic-nic at
Aintree, after paying all expenses, was 13s, 4d.—Mr.
Atkinson then called attention to the two clauses of the
Wine Licenses Act, under which licensed victuallers
may call upon the police for the extrusion of disorderly
characters ; and on his motion, seconded by Mr. War-•
riner, Mr. Crossman, the secretary, was instructed respect-
fully to apply to the Watch Committee for a copy of the
' instructions which had been issued to our local police on
the subject, that the information might be spread amongst
members of the association. The eheismal said he saw
by the Manchester papers of the other day that some sol-
diers had been billeted for fourteen nights at a public-
house. They came the first, night, but did not make their
appearance afterwards. The publican brought the,
matter before the Licensed Victuallers' Committee, who
waited upon the head-constable, and through his instru-
mentality an order was made for payment for the whole
fourteen nights, at the rate of 4d. a night, on the proper
ground that the publican had been put to inconvenience
in keeping a bed for them. The secretary read a some-
what similar case at Canterbury, from the. 11114'thq
.11dierg8er of •Monday last. The remaining business
was merely formal and routine.
