TO THE EDITOR. OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD,

Sxn,—The annual report of the above body mentions,
amongst its other successes, tie result of the town's
meeting on Parliamentary Oaths ; and I think that, con-
sidering that the majority of that meeting consisted of a
picked corps of Irish Romanists, fresh from the classical
regions of Fontenoy-street, Marybone, Vauxhall-road, &c.,
who cowardly created an uproar during the speeches of
Dr. M`Neile, &c., but were as quiet as lambs during the
speeches of Messrs. Simon, Earle, and Rathbone, that the
" Reform Association" deserves every credit for their sin-
cere attachment to "civil and religious libeiltYr
Your readers are probably aware that it was these Irish
gentlemen who attacked, and almost murdered the Rev.
Mr. Wolseley in 1851, and who have, at various times,
almost caused the death of several scripture readers,
which, I suppose the " Reform Association," had it been
in existence, would have considered as " Triumphs of
liberal principles over tory bigotry."
Hoping that this patriotic body may ever enjoy the
sympathy of the Roman Catholic " Bishop" and clergy of
Liverpool (and none else).—l. remain, Sir, yours respect-
fully, O. W. M.
