FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF THE LIVERPOOL
PROTESTANT ASSOCIATION.

On Tuesday last the Liverpool Protestant Association held
its first anniversary at the Amphitheatre, in Great -Charlotte-
street. the advertisements convening the meeting announced
that the Rev. R.. 1. -11•(ibee and the Rev. .Mortimer O'Sullivan
were expected to attend, and from the well-kuown talents of
those gentlemen, a great desire was generally prevalent to
attend the meeting. The Amphitheatre having before been fre-
quently used for similar occasions, it is almost unnecessary to
give a description of it. Suffice it to say that the whole of this
spacious building,, looking at it ,t'roin the front of the stage;pre-
sented one de-nse mass of human beings. Pit, boxes, and gal-
leries, flow the must remote corner at the bottom to the very
ceiling at the top, were excessively crowded. On turning round
and i•idking towards the stage,.the same scene presented itself.
In the whote-of the back of the proscenium was erected a kind
of gallery, tier above tier, from the stage floor to the ceiling.
which was densely crowded with ladies, being set apart exclu-
sively for them. The stage itself presented the same crowded
appearance ;- on it were,assembled the clergy of the town and
neighbourhood to the number of sixty or seventy. We need
hardly state that the whole- building, when thus filled by about
-1,0lX) persons, 'many of whom were of great respectability, and
Kreat ()umbers of whom were females, presented a most magni-
ficent ,pectacle. The admission into the theatre was by ticket,
on
,whica was printed that the parties obtaining theta were ex-
pected to accede to a pledge not to interrupt the business of the
meeting, and to maintain order. The orchestra was appro-
priated to the gentittned of the press," and every accommo-
dation was aff,inied to them. We have to tender our thanks for
the conveniences provided fur us. It was announcad on the
advertisements that after the meeting a collaction would be
made at the doors for the benefit of the protestant schools. The
doorovere opened-at ten o'clock, and toe house was almost im-
mediately filled. Precisely at eleven o'clock the Rev. Morti-
mer O'Sullivan and the Rev. H. M'Neile entered on the stage,
and were greeted with loud cheering. Immediately afterwards
C. S. Parker,.Esq., the treasurer of the association, was moved
into the chair.

Among the gentlemen On the platform' was the Rev. C. Glad-
win, T. Tauershal), M. Hawtrey, C. Lawrence, J. Jones, J.
Bat.,.s, J. fl. Ste.,i'art, J. H. Stafford, E. Bpencer, T. Garret,
W. 'Curer, .1. Power, It. Wilson, J. B. Winstatiley, W. 11.

J. Maughair, H. M•Neile, .1. North, Dr. James, Mr, Alder,
F. Barker, A. Knox, W. Rawson, Mr. Luger, R. Davis, jun.,

France, Mr. Cheethain, ancl..lllr. Bunbury..

Time CH AIRm AN then said, before commencing the business
of the meeting, he trusted they were all prepared to unite in
Seekiug the blessing of Almighty God ; so that all their pro-
ceedings being overruled by his spirit, peace, and wisdom might
attend to animate them "in his glory,. and.for the rood of his
church. lie would therefore call ou the Rev. Air. Stewart to
offer up a prayer.
The Rev. Mr. STEWART, incumbent of St. Bride's, then
offered up an appropriate and solemn appeal to the Deity, in
which the audience joined with devout attention. After which
The Cu Alas! AN said, at time important meeting which had
been held within these walls some time before, the Protestant
Association had taken its origin. The only officers then ap-
pointed were a secretary and a treasurer. To the former the
committee had assigned, the duty of reading their report, and
they had requested the latter, according to the usage of those
societies similarly constituted without a president to take the
chair at its annual meeting. Whilst he acknowledged with un-
affected humility his utter unworthiness of the honour they
had doue him in not withholding their sanction from the ar-
rangements they had just heard, be had acceded io it at the
sacrifice of very strong personal feelings. Had the meeting
been convened for any other object, nothing could have in-
duced him to have taketa an office, of his incapacity for which
he was painfully conscious; whether he looked back at the
talents and station of those who had preceded hint in that chair,
wile:her he looked around him at that vast assembly of his
ledow.townsamen, or whether he looked forward to the ahility
and eloqeence of those who were to address them that day.
But it being their high privilege to maintain the supremacy of
the word of God—(cheers)—to contend earnestly for " the faith
once delivered to the saints," it would ill become the tnost
feeble and untried soldier of Christ to desert his post. (Cheers.)
And yet would they bear in mind that they were commanded
by the same autholity to speak the truth in love—to speak evil
of no man, but to be gentle. Ile should now best consult their
convenience and the gratification of his own feelings by pro-
ceeding to the business of the meeting, and call on. their secre-
tary, Mr. Elwards, to read the report.
Mr. Euwa nos then proceeded to read the report of the com-
mittee of the association for the past year.
