A,
T a PUBLIC IVIBETING of the Inhabitants
of the Borough of Liverpool, convened by the Mayor,
nem on Tuesday, the 20th day of. September, 1853, in com-
pliance with a resolution of the Subscribers to. the Wellington
Testimonial, SAMUEL HOLSIE, Esq., Mayor, in the chair,
the Town-clerk read the placard calling the meeting, and the
following report of the comiriitteel—
WELLINGTON- TESTIMONIAL FUND.

The committee appointed at the public meeting of the in-
habitants of the borough, on the 23d of October last, imme-
diately proceeded ,to exercise the power given to •thern of
adding to their number, and, with others, added to the com-
mittee the magistrates for the borough, the members of the
town council, the parish authorities and overseers of out
townships, which form part of the borough, making the com-
mittee in number 208. A book was subsequently issued to
each member, of the committee for tbe collection of subscrip-
tions, and books were left at the several banks, newspaper
offices, and newsrooms in the town, advertisements were in-
serted in the newspapers stating where books were deposited
to receive the names of subscribers, and the names of the
subscribers were, from time to time, also inserted in the
newspapers. The committee also considered 'that it might
have been attended with advantage if ward meetings had
been called, and they passed a • resolution Jequesting the
aldermen and councillors of the several wards to call such
meetings. As this' suggestion was not approved of generally
by the aldermen and councillors, no ward meetings were
summoned.

The books for subscriptions having been called in, the
committee -have to report that the amount subscribed is
£5742 75., of which £5422 78. bad been paid to the treasurer.
The committee, at its meeting on the sth of August last,
observing that the requisition to the late Mayor, requesting
him to call the Public Meeting in October last, was nume-
rously signed, but that a great 'many
_of the requisitionists
had not subscribed to the fund, directed a note to be sent to
those whose mimes did not appear in the list of subscribers.
Notes were sent to 223 of the requisitionists; and eleven only
have recorded their names as subscribers.
The Public Meeting in October last haiing passed the
following resolution :—" That a public Subscription he opened
for the purpose of erecting a Column,. surmounted by a Statue,
to be placed, by permission of the council, in some suitable
situation in the town," the committee felt that, with the
amount in the hands of the treasurer, they could not' proceed
to carry out the resolution,. and therefore called a meeting of
the subscribers on- the sth instant. The feeling of that meet-
ing was, if possible, to raise sufficient funds for the purpose
of erecting a Column, and for-this object the resolution con-
tained in the notice issued by the Mayor, calling a Public
Meeting for the 20th instant, was unanimously passed.
SAMUEL HOLSIE, Cnairnr- n.

Town-hall, September 191 b, 1353.
It was moved by WILLIAM BLOWN, Esq., M.P., seconded
by WILLIAM It. SANDBACM, Esq., and resolved unanimously,
"That, as the inhabitants of this borongh determined, at a
public meeting held in October last, that the local memorial
to testify the sense entertained of the great public services of
the late Duke of Wellington should be a Column surmounted
by a Statue of his Grace; and, it avi.earing, from the report
now read, that the amount- subscribed up to this time does
not exceed the sum of £5742 75., which sum would be in-
sufficient to erect a memorial of this character worthy of the
town and of the occasion, this meeting calls upon the in-
habitants to subscribe such an additional sum as would en-
able the committee to carry out Lie object proposed by the
resolution of the 23d of October last."
-

It was moved by THOMAS B. HORSPALL, Esq•, M.P.,
seconded by JOHN CAMPBELL, Esq., and resolved unani-
mously,
" That books for the names of subscribers be again placed
in the banks and public rooms, in order to afford to the in-
habitants who have not already subscribed the opportunity
of enrolling their names."
It was moved by JOHN TORR, Esq., seconded by THOMAS
EDWARD S. Moss, Esq.. and resolved unanimously,
"That the committee be requested to continue their exer-
tions to obtain subscriptions; and for this purpose to appoint
a sub-committee to make personal applications, or to adopt
such other measures as they may think best calculated to
effect the object of the meeting

PROPOSED CHURCH IN • LIVERPOOL
FOR DAILY PRAYERS, WEEKLY COMMUNION,
AND THE CELEBRATION•OF ALL THE OFFICES OF
THE CHURCH OF. ENGLAND.
The want of such a place of Worship, in a convenient lo-
cality, is deeply felt by many of the Inhabitants of Liverpool;
a Church, in which nothing shall be omitted which may tend
to the decency, devotion, and solemnity of the Anglican
Worship; and in which a good Choral Service may be com
bined with a hearty congregational response; a Church. in
which kneeling accommodation, and not the number of sit-
tings, shall be considered of the first importance; and in
which the poor shall have equal rights with the rich. It is
proposed to build a Church, architecturally correct, without
galleries or enclosed pews, and free to all comers; the requi-
site expenses to be defrayed by the weekly Offertory, and
such Endowment as may be provided for perpetuating ser-
vices strictly iu accordance with the doctrine and discipline
of the Church of England.
£2,800 have already been subscribed, and in part paid by a
hundred and thirty contributors, of whom thirty-ov° are
Clergymen. A list of these will, on application, be furnished
to any one interested in the project; and the Committee
earnestly solicit donations from all classes, under the pasua
sion that, in this large and wealthy community, there cannot
be wanting a sufficient number of sound Churchmen to en-
sure success to such an undertaking.
