It is unnecessary to point out the importance of defending,
by all the paeans at command, the immense property accumu-
lated haiverpool, and distributed amongst all classes of the
community, to whose commercial operations a' feeling of
security is so essential. In order, therefore, to further the
attainment of this object, and to assist in the National Volun-
teer Movement, the Liverpool Artillery and Rifle Brigade has
been projeeted ; and it is hoped that the inhabitants generally
will coma forward promptly and liberally with their personal
services or pecuniary contributions, so that a speedy success
may be insured. •
