`Mr; Macdonald has resided with his uncle, at Waterloo,

Maedonala is no more a professional runner than any other

Cambndge student

Having been educated there, he, no doubt

." The British Grenadiers."

The Mayor a public meeting
On Friday did convene,
At which a mighty concourse
Of every rank was seen;
Our worthy Mayor was in the chair,
Surrounded by his peers,
To hold a debate on the present state
Of the Rifle Volunteers.

Around the Mayor we noticed
The great ones of the town,
The brave Sir Fenwiek Williams.
And Mr. William Brown
Likewise the gallant adjutant,
Who, for the last six years, -
Has organised, and is highly prised
By the Rifle Volunteers.

Thewarious magnates present
The meeting now addressed,
And all their admiration
Of Rifle Corps expressed.
Each motion was unanimous,
And carried 'mid loud cheers.
If the papers you read you will know what was said
Of the Rifle Volunteers.

One thing upon the meeting
Did cast a little gloom,
Which was—that Edward Kelly
Could not be got to come. -
He sent a speech, however,
His sentiments to state ; _ -
But, I grieve to write, by some oversight
The missive came too late.

Its purport now we publish :
E. Kelly begs to say,
" That, though his avocation
"Confines him close all day,
" Still those few hours which he devot

" He'll pass not at home, but himself become
"A Rifle Volunteer."

Our patriotic, practical, and facetious friend, "the Butter-

At 7 A.M., a lifleman, in heavy marching order, armed to the
teeth, mounts guard in front if the Butter Place, and there remains
on duty to 7 r.m., with the exception of the few minutes he spend,
before dinner in discharging his title, and rubbing up his arms

EXTRAORDINARY AND USEFUL • INVENTION.--There is
nothing that housewives complain of with greater truthful-
ness, than the breaking of some favourite piece of glass,
valuable china, or earthenware. In hundreds of cases such
things cannot be matched, and of course cannot be mended.
The latter want has been obviated by an extraordinary and
effective invention, by Mr. Adshead, of Derby Pottery, near
Derby. It is a cement that may be said to heal in a per-
fect manner, all cracks and breaks in the articlesspoken of ,
and not only in these, but in marble, alabaster, &c, The

benefit of this article need not be dwelt on. We have seen
some of its effects at Mr. Hall's, our neighbour's, and the
glass that has been cemented by it is stronger in that part
than in any, other. The article is very cheap, and no house
can be long without it. Mr. Hall is the agent for its sale
in Liverpool, and all interested can judge for themselves by
looking in at Ilis establishment. Agent for Liverpool, E.

T. Han, 23, Sbuth John-street. Sold in bottles, is each,
or sent free on receipt of sixteen postage stamps. N.B.—
None are genuine, except bearing the signature. "E. T

From time immemorial precocious children have frequently
been brought upon the Stage, but in all cases the youthful aspirant
has left the impression on his hearers of the wax moulded by the
tutor's art rather than the free and spontaneous exuberance-of
real dramatic genius. In presenting the Juvenile Comedians to
the criticism of a Liverpool public, their Director is fully confi-
dent that their extraordinary talents will meet the appreciation
which their sterling abilities have commanded for- them in, the
