LIVERPOOL LICENSED VICTI7ALLERS'
ASSOCIATION.

The Annual General Meeting of the LiCensed Victual-
lers' Association was held yesterday, in the Board-room of
their Institution, West Derby-road. The chair was
occupied by tha President of the Asscciation, Mr. T.
Carter.

The meeting was convened for three o'clock pm.
precisely, but it was four o'clock before the buiinesi.4 was
proceeded with.

The CHAIRMAN in opening the proceedings, said that it
was their annual general meeting, held in accordance with
their deed of association, fur the purpose of laying before
the subscrebers the report of the proceedings of the past
year, That report would be the report of 'what the
committee had done both in the meteor of the charitable
institution, and of all matters connected with the trade.
It was the duty of the meeting to Judge of that report as
it was laid before them and to say whether the committee
had done their dtvy during the preceding year. He should
inform them that it sas in the power of the meeting to
annul any of the proceedings of the committee if they dis-
approved of them ; and they would also have to consider
whether the committee who had the management
of their affair& were 'deserving of re appointment
ler not. They would have to appoint seven new mem
bars to-act on the committee, and whatever the result of
that choice might be the subscribers would hold the
meeting responsible for the meaner in which those
gentlemen would pefcerm their duties. The committee
had had money difficulties to meet doting the last year,
and many payments to make whiuh could not occur
again under any circnmstances. In conclusion the chair-
man declared that the committee desired the fullest inquiry
into their management, and reed a letter front Lady
Bent, returning ;her most grateful the nks for the kind
sympathy expressed by the Licensed Victualles Associa-
tion towards her in her recent bereavement,
The Secretary, Mr. Beoesethen read the isinutes rf
-the proceedings of the committee during the year. He
also recd the report and statement of accounts. They
have beta. --already published and circulated among the
onle4cribere.
Mr. HENRY DAMSON as one of the auditors, mewed the
adoption of the report and statement of accounts. In
doing so he observed that so completely 'identified were
the into of the association with the interests of
the sub: cribers as iedevi fuels, that these who did not
-take an interest in its welfare, were guilty of culpable negli-
gence in their own interests. (Hear, hear.) Ler year the
association hid had tnany difficulties to meet, but they
had cfreercome them all ; and if the association were well
maintained, their estate would soon'become one of con-
siderable importance in Liverpool. He wanted that their
income should be doubled, and if the trade took the
interest in the association which they ought to do, their
income would soon reach that amount. (Hear, hear.) In
Conclusion, Mr. Denson bore testimony to the plain,
comenheneive, and satisfactory manner in which the
accounts of the association were kept.-
Mr. J. ATR,NRON, another of the auditors, seconded the
motion. In doing so, he referred to what passed in the
Police-court daring the late Licensing Session, and
observed that,` however much at variance the conduct of
the magistrates on the occasion might be with their
position and 'duty, he would not then stop to discuss it.
His impression was that the Licensing Magistrates of
Liverpool had forgotten the precise duty for the discharge
of which they were empowered by the Licensing Act.
Their conduct during the present licensit g session was at
variance not only with their acts, but with their oft
expressed opinions. In London the business was carried
on in a very different manner, and the consequence was
that much more satisfaction was given ; but he was sorry
to say that the licensing bench of Liverpool had, during
the present session, acted not only not in accordance with
the spirit of the act, but not even with its letter. However,
this only showed the necessity and importance of the trade
being prepared against the next meeting of parliament,
-when some change in the system would undoubtedly be
proposed. He had no hesitation in saying that a great
change was necessary, and he was confident that if the
'licensed victuallers of the country did their duty, that
change would be made not only beneficial to themselves,
bat beneficial to the community at large. (Hear, hear.)
Some discussion took place, on a complaint of Mr.
Parker that a letter which he had directed to the com-
mittee did not appear on the minutes, but the matter was
explained.

The motion was then unanimously adopted.
The next business was the election of seven members on
the committee, in the room of the gentlemen who retiroti.
Mr. Thomas Carter, Mr. William Coward, Mr James
Morgan, and Mr. Thomas Jones were re•electel ; and Mr.
-Joseph Jannion, Mr. George Meyrick, and Mr. Thomas W.
May were elected in the roam of Mr. E. Griffiths, Mr. John
Evals, and Mr. Thomas Fisher.
_Mr. T. W. MAY moved that the thanks of the assodafon
be given to the chairman and the committee for tkeir
exertions in the cause of the institution and the trade
during the past year.
Mr. Lays seconded the motion, which was unanimously
ador tad.
Tae CHAIRMAN acknowledged the compliment, and in
doing so observed that it was the great desire of the com-
mittee to bring the schools into as good working order as
the almshouse. (Hear, hear.) He would wish that it
were possible to urge the subcribers to aid them in that
effort, for he should like to see the schools h•otight to that
position that they would reflect credit on the Fcansed
victuallers of Liverpool. (Hear, hear.)
On the motion of Mr. W. Coward, seconded by Mr.
McKnight, Mr. Thomas Clarke was re-elected treasurer,
and thanks voted him for the manner in which he
discharged the duties of the office during the past
year.

Mr. Howe pr3posed that Mr. Thomas Rymer be re-
elected solicitor, and thanks ba voted to him for the
manner in which he conducted the legal busineEs of the
tus4oCiaion.
i\l r. T. JONES secmded the motion, which was unani-
mously adopted.
Mr. RYMER, in acknowledging the compliment, referred
to what lately took place before the Licensing Magistrates,
and said he dii think, that a slciety like the Licensed
Vic nallers' Association, ought to be represented before
the magistrates, and that when they came before the
bench to oppose the granting of any farther licenses, their
representations should b 3 patiently listened to. (Hew.)
They had large property invested in their business, and they
bad a r ght to say to the magistrates, "Do not grant any
further licenses, for even now Liverpol is overwhelmed
with them " Ho always paid respect to the bench, and
be regretted much the s.ienes which took place in the
Police Court on a recent occasion. He did not think they
were proper, and with every respect to the gentlemen who
made the complaints to the bench, he should take the
liberty of saying, and saying publicly, that they went a
little too far. (hear, hear.)
On the motion of Mr. E. Griffiths, thanks were voted
to the Itnditors ; and, on the motion of Mr. J. Evans,
thanks were unanimously voted to the trustees.
Mr. Jaws THOMPSON in responding, observed that the
princiiie on which licenses were at present granted in
Liverpool, no one could understand. (Hear, hear.)
Thanks were then voted to the proprietors of the
Morning Advertiser, for their presentation of that paper
to the association—and to the _chairman, after which tha
meeting separated.

MELANCHOLY A, CIDENT.-111 Thursday morning', during
the gale of westerly wind, while one of the Danbeath
boats was running for the lani, one of the crcw,, a Lews
