TO THE EDITOR OF THE DAILY TIMES.

Sin,—We are within ten days of the opening of the
Free Library, the gift of William Brown, Esq. ; and
though there is a vague impression that there will be a
procession through the town, aided by the presence of
our " noble volunteers," yet, strange to say, there is
nothing arranged. Such absence management, and
want of concert, 1 will undertake to say, could not be
found in any other town in the kingdom. But rumour
says that the officers of the different corps are disgusted
with the selfish manner in which Mr. Jeffery, and others,
of the committee, have appropriated the tickets for the
dinner, without making any provision for them.
Should such, unfortunately, be the case, I trust that
the officers and volunteers generally will overlook this
affrqnt, and pay Mr. Brown the compliment, and their
fellow-townsmen the pleasure, of turning out. The ,
loyal people of Liverpool are anxious to do everything
in their power to add to the joyousness and beauty of the
scene, and yet nothing is positively known, as to what
course the procession vil[ take through the town.
Surely there cannot be any jealousy with our colonels.
The artillery would be first ; but of the rifles, the Ist
Lancashire would most undoubtedly take the lead. Per-
haps, Mr. Editor, you will be kind enough to ventilate
the subject through the Daily Times, and cause a pro-
gramme to be issued without delay, for it must not be
overlooked that considerable preparation is necessary,
such as inviting friends from afar, procuring flags, &c.
To be done at all, it ought to be done well and
quickly, and the inhabitants are hourly expecting an
official account of what will take place, more particularly
with regard to the procession.
As it will be a close holiday, the Exchange area wouldi
be an excellent place for the rendezvous for the Volun-
teers ; but if not large enough for all, certainly for the
Rifles.—Apologising for tresspassing so far upon year
space, I am, &c., "Ex PECTANS."

A LOVE MATCH SPOILED IN LIVERPOOL..

That horrible stream of true love has been again
stopped by the detectives of Liverpool, and what they
next may undertake to do is a myth—but it would not
be surprising if they tried to keep out the tide with a
pitchfork—for they have often performed tasks ap—
parently as hopeless. A young gentleman of nineteen,
who lives—or did live with his father in Chatham-street

—took it into his head to fall over cars in love with a
pretty raven-haired, diamond-eyed young lady, who
officiated at the bar of a respectable hotel, not a rifle
shot from where Vousden delights hundreds nightly.
An elopement was of course managed, and the "needful"
was provided by the young gentleman, who, somehow
or other laid digits on about £7OO belonging to
his father. The loving pair were missed, and, as in
all emergencies, the aid of the detectives was sought,
and granted. Two of the most distinguished and polite
of the corps were on the alert. They bad heard that
the runaways had gone to London, but they knew better ;
and on Sunday morning, after a deal of oil, they went
to a respectable house in Hope-place, where they got
the two darlings, and, what was as good, they got
£630 of the missing money, together with a quantity of
jewellery and other property that had been purchased
for the fair one, by the juvenile homo. The father of
the latter, having got possession of his son and the
money, declined to prosecute, and sent the young damsel
about her own business. Horrid detectives, what
wrecks you make !

THE LITERARY AMATEUILS.—Oar readers should be made
aware that the new volume of the Welcome Guest (price Ss 6d.
ready October 1), contains contributions from all the literary
celebrities who are so generously performing in aid of the
Brough Memorial Fund. Robert Brough (for whose family
the fund is being raised) was editor of the Welcome Guest,
from the pages of which his exquisite romance of " Miss,
Brown," and other charming tales, stories, and essays, in:
prose and in verse, have just been reprinted. Price 2s.
NEW INVENTION.—THE NEW FOUNTAIN PEN.---A greater
annoyance than a bad steel pen can hardly be met with---the
difficulty is to get a good one. Amongst the recent improve-
ments the new " fountain pen," just introduced by Rudhall
and Co. is the best we have ever seen. By a simple hut effec-
tive contrivance the ink is retained in a fountain, by means of
a second inverted barrel, above the writingnib, and this barrel
can be taken out at any time, so the pen can be kept perfectly
clean without any chance of being corroded. Another feature
in this pen is, that one dip in the ink will last for five minutes'
quick writing. The pen iiself is of the finest description, and
in merchants' offices, banks, and indeed in every place, it will
be found to fill a want felt by every one up to this time. We
have tried this splendid pen, handed to us by Mr. E. T. Halt,
South John-street, and can pronounce it perfect, and we are
sure all who use it will give a full verdict in its favour.

HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND Pmts.—Erysipelas, cancer,
ulcers, hemorrhoids, er piles, boils, and prickly heat are
treated with unvarying success by this mild yet penetrating
unguent. The vast consumption of these remedies in India
and throughout the East is a better proof of their excellence
than the testimony of any individual. They would not be in
such demand in all our distant dependencies and colonies, if
they had not been found so universally beneficial. Few internal
or external diseases can withstand their joint influence; Whilst.
the Ointment cools, soothes, and remedies outward complaints,
the Pills by purifying the blood, improving indigestion, inn
stimulating the kidneys, thoroughly throw out from the system
those subtle corruptions which engendered erysipelas and its
associates.

and, although it contains no preparation of opium, it induces

restores the healthy action of the lungs." Recommended above
all other medicines by Sir Alexander Tralles—see Thomson's
liateria ifedica, page 175, vol. 2. The following is from Dr.
Brett, the eminent chemist :—" I consider the balsam of hore-
hound and aniseed, as prepared by Mr. Martin, an elegant
and efficient cough remedy, and I fully agree with Sir Alexan-
der Ttalles and Dr. Anthony Todd Thomson, that. in conjunc-
tion with cod liver oil, it is an admirable remedy for con-
sumption and delicate constitutions."— R. H. Brett, Ph. Dr.,
M.R.C.S., late Lecturer on Chemistry and Medical Jurispi u-
dence, Liverpool Royal Infirmary. The balsam of horehound
and aniseed is prepared only by T. Martin, chemist, 22, Cop-
peras-hill, Liverpool; but, owing to its great and increasing
sale, agents have been appointed in all principal towns and
cities. It can be procured wholesale from Itaimes and Co.,
Edinburgh and York, from Sutton and Co., London, West-
macott, Manchester, and wholesale and retail from the manu-
facturer, as above. Price, Is. lAd., 2s. 9d ; and 4s. 6d. each.
